karite followed slowly wondering if he was that strong or was it his Zanpaktou. He never remembered moving so fast in class. Considering he was fighting Takara. She was the fastest of them all. She moved almost as fast a shanpou. But still he had moved much faster then before. He was improving, even ig it was slowly.

Kaosu growled as he got back up. "Yeah." He kept his head hung low, his fists displaying white knuckles because of his unrelenting grip. 13 fights so far...11 losses.
Kaosu looked up at Ugu, fighting back the urge to cry. No more tears. He thought as he finally sheathed his zanpaku-to. "Would you truly be...willing to train me?"
As much as Kaosu hated to admit it...he needed help. Badly.

Karite looked, dodging was not his problem. His constant loss of control. He could not control his attacks. If he was to get anywhere he would have to learn that first, like with Kaosu he was in another world all together. He wanted the first strike he wanted to smell the blood. Battle took him over. He had no control.
"Ugu...May I stay and watch? I think I could learn something as well. I have not lost a match yet, but the time will come when it might happen. So anything I could learn will help. A protector can not lose for he then becomes a victim." That phrase stroke deep within Karite. It was the last thing his grandfather told him before Karite died.

Ryoushi walked and looked left and right. "Sensei are you there." He countiued walking not see his sensei anywhere. "Sensei, It's me Ryoushi I'm here to train with you." He placed his hand on his sheath and quietly sat down yelling sensei every now and then.

Ugu smiled. "Of course, Kaosu. And yes, Karite, you may join us." Then the shinigami heard Ryoushi's voice whom seemed to be calling out for him. He raised his voice, and directed his voice out into the woods that Ryouishi currently searched in. "Ryoushi," he yelled, "Follow my voice and come to my clearing." Lowering his voice, he then attended back to the two younger shinigami around him. "Follow me," Ugu ordered as he turned toward the clearing.
He began walking toward the clearing's centre- where there was a large oak tree. It had a diameter of three to four meters and its overhanging branches left enough shade to shelter a small army. But today it would cover four shinigami.
Upon getting the clearing he sat down, crosslegged, at the base of the oak. His feet crossed and shifted into a neatly, rested, and relaxed position. He faced forward, away from the tree, to hopefully view his following students.

Ryoushi's ear twiched as he heard the sensei's voice.He stood up burshes the twigs and dirt off of himself.He grabbed his sword and his bag, as he walked towards the voice. Yelling to make sure he was going the right way. 3minutes went by and he finally enter the clearing. He noticed 3 shingami. Sensei and two other's.He had never seen these two before are they in the advance class he thought. Ryoushi walked over and sat besides the sensei."Konichiwa. Sensei...Um your name it seems to have alluded me."

Kaosu stayed silent, both from embarrasment and complete loyalty. His feet shuffled like that of a wounded puppy, following in Ugu's wake. When Ugu-sama sat, he continued to stand. It wasn't anything against Ugu, but Kaosu didn't feel like sitting.
He continued his silence, almost saying that he was ready for whatever Ugu could dish out.

Karite still stood as Kaosu did. He did it out of respect of his current Sensei, and the opponent he had defeated. It was not as if Karite could stand to sit. His legs were beaten from his own training. He had not had a decent rest since he joined the academy, but that was of course his own fault. He was always running around doing something he shouldn't. Yet he stood anyway. It was the least he could do.
He slowly moved his hands into his sleeves and looked around waiting for instructions. His hands themselves were raw and in much pain. He would have to wrap those when he got back to the dorms. He hopped he had enough strength to leap back to the fourth floor.

"All of you; sit," he said as he brought his hands together. Both of his hands, with their sausage-sized fingers, interwove between themselves and tightened. Ugu then let his hands fall onto his lap and began to talk to the three shinigami in front of him. "Why do we fight? Better yet.. Why do you three fight and attempt to become fully fledged shinigami? What pushes you to become stronger?" the shinigami asked, hoping to get an answer from all three of the students.

He sat as the sensei ordered. He started at him as the sensei spoke the words going into his mind."There is no reason for me to fight.Yet i do.I Fight to protect the innocent the weak. I fight for truth and justice. I don't fight for myself but for the others around me."Ryoushi said to the sensei question.He wipped the sweat on his forehead of.The quetly lead against the branch of the tree.

Karite slowly removed his hands from his sleeves and pulled his zanpaktou from his belt. he sat and laid it next to his leg. He was not one to pour out his inner thoughts to anyone. He just kept to himself like he had always done, but this was a question he felt he should answer. He felt this was one question he actually had an answer for.
"Ha ha, Ugu your question is a good one. I use to fight to protect the weak. I use to fight to strengthen myself. I use to fight to not become a victim, but now I fight to understand why I fight. When I find it, I shall not fight as much, but I will only fight when need be. For now I will fight till my lust is filled. I will fight to my hands bleed their last drop. I will fight, because I have the strength."

Kaosu opened his mouth after Karite was finished, "I fight...", but then he stopped. Why do I fight? Kaosu looked up into the branches of the tree, up into the filtered sunlight. What reason do I have to fight?
"I fight..." Kaosu slumped onto the ground, into a relaxed sitting position; arms supporting behind him and legs sprawled out in front. Have I ever had a reason to fight? Kaosu asked himself. No, I just do.
Finally, he gave up. "I don't know why I fight. I just do." Kaosu sat all the way, up, in a more 'student'-esque stance. However, Kaosu knew full well why he fought. To become stronger, stronger than everyone else.
"And, well...why not fight to become fully-fledged shinigami? It's the best way to learn how to fight!"
He left the last question to answer in his head. I want to become stronger now...to beat Ugu. I have to.
"Why ask, Ugu? What good lesson can come from asking such a question?" Of course, Kaosu was trying to dodge answering the question. He didn't like questions he couldn't answer. Of course, there were quite a few of them, so he rarely answered questions.

A cool breeze shifted into the clearing and ruffled Ugu's thick shinigami clothing. "It isn't quite the answer, really, that I'm looking for." A chuckle escaped from him as he kept his eyes on the three students in front of him. He shifted his hands apart to slide his right hand up to his forehead and press his fingers into his neatly combed hair. "I'm merely wondering whether you guys had a reason at all. Most people in Soul Society lack the reasons and the urges to become stronger.. And thusly do not ever try to become stronger."
"I can't really teach someone that doesn't want to become stronger, can I?" Another chuckle came from Ugu as he brought his right hand back down to his lap. "But now that we've cleared that small issue methinks we should get onto what'll help you dodge, Kaosu. It should also help you fellows too, Karite and Ryoushi."
So the elder shinigami began. "Dodging is part awareness and part the ability to move. They are intermingled and interwoven in how they work. Without awareness you would never see your opponent coming, nor be able to see the thing you must dodge. The act of dodging requires the ability to move out of the way- 'dexterity'. It also relies on intelligence, but its importance is fairly minute when compared to awareness and dexterity.." His face turned to Kaosu once more as he finished. "Do you have a problem with either awareness or dexterity, Kaosu?"

Kaosu rubbed the back of his head. "Well, I suppose I'm pretty good. I can kinda see things even if I'm not looking at it directly, and I am okay at dodging compared to Tsai...but it's not great. I always manage to get hit. That's why I've lost so much. I guess you could call me unlucky. But every part helps."

"To you the truth I'm not really good at anything.Well aside from that let's do it."Ryoushi with a little sigh.He had sweat on his forehead from talking. Dang peers I fell like nothing in front of them.
