Urza took a good look at the great stone behemoth she was trying to move, and imagined how it got there in the first place. As far as Urza had seen Oto was more of a hilly like plains than a rocky area. When she had walked into the village she remembered seeing odd caves and hill formations on the outskirts of town, most likely made as defensive posts or something of the sort of the ninja that came before her. But this rock... Did it have a purpose? It seemed rather out of place, so someone must have brought it here. But who? Urza pondered the mysteries of the rock for a bit, getting distracted from her training.
Quickly snapping back into reality she noticed that no work was getting done and that she was just standing around. Quickly wanting to fix that Urza put her hands against the rock and began pushing counter clockwise as hard as she could. the sound of the rock sliding against the ground could be faintly heard echoing off the ground as Urza moved the stone with all of her might. Urza was getting rather good at walking the stone forwards, and she had moved it at least 3 centimeters at this point. Which to Urza may as well have been a mile, and sort of felt like it.
Urza had to stop to take a break once more. It was all she could do from kicking herself for stopping. Here she was almost at her goal of 5 centimeters and She couldn't even bring herself to finish off the last little stretch without a small break. Urza almost huffed, but instead decided just to make a promise to herself. She would move a centimeter clockwise one more time, and a centimeter counter clockwise one more time without stopping. Closing her eyes Urza asked for help from The Maker. A blessing to give her the strength to move mountains.

Urza closed her eyes feeling her energy coarse through her once more. Placing her hands on the rock Urza pushed with all of her might, and slowly but surly the rock began to twist and move. It seemed to take hours to get the rock to move, and Urza held her breath the entire time, not wanting anything to break the focus of her strength. The rock moved milometer by milometer, until it eventually got stuck and Urza could no longer move it. She had gotten it a good centimeter farther than it had been earlier so for that she thanked The Maker, but she couldn't for the life of her find the strength to do it once more without a small break.
Urza took her hands off the stone and took a few steps back, whipping the sweat off of her brow. Urza rested a bit letting her arms regain their strength before going on and trying again. She wondered what Miyako was up to. Most likely something outstanding that Urza couldn't wrap her head around. Urza imagined what puppets must look like and how that would be controlled, but no matter how Urza looked at it it didn't make any sense in her head. One thing was for sure though. Urza couldn't wait to see what Miyako was capable of when she had her weapon of choice.

Urza felt good enough to finish this task. Without hesitation Urza placed her hands upon the stone and began twisting it counter clockwise. The great stone groaned as it moved, but eventually Urza won and the stone was now displaced five centimeters from where it had began the day. Urza let herself drop back and laughed in triumph. No one at The Chantry would believe her if she had told them that she had moved the world. But in a way Urza had. She had moved her very own mountain. And who knew, maybe some day the world would know her, and as such, Urza would have moved it.

Urza having moved the rock a bit finally decided she would head back to the dojo to see if she could find any books about combat. She figured it was a dojo so there had to be at least a few scrolls about it somewhere. As Urza searched the dusty shelf's she stumbled upon something. "The Art of Combat." Urza read the title out loud and instantly took a seat, becoming ecstatic to read. Urza flipped to the first page and began her wonderful journey through the book. The thing was only a couple chapters long, but Urza was sure it had some good info. The first chapter was particularly interesting, as it talked about pressure points, and other natural weaknesses. Urza committed a few of them to memory.
the next chapter was about tells. It described how if you watched an opponents hips you could read their movements, or at least direction they were about to move. once more all brilliant information the Urza ensured to commit to memory. Urza was sure when her next battle came she would be that much more prepared for whatever was thrown her way than if she had chosen not to read this book. Her had a small list of things written down that she would have to make sure she re-read to understand them entirely, those points being pressure points, and body indicators.More was to be added to the list she was sure.
This book was full of fantastic information about combat. It even told about special blocking techniques that could potentially be so effective as to negate all of the damage from an attack. Urza added it to the list along with a few other notes. Such as, Lance?, and Shield?. these were mental notes for the girl should she need to learn the act of blocking with more than one weapon. Urza's fate was still yet to be set in stone, and she had no clue what path she would walk yet. She had a good idea that she would one day be a Dragoon or a Guardian, but she was still unsure which one she was more suited for.
Urza skimmed the next chapter. There was a bit of interesting things but nothing worth to commit to memory or take note of. Urza was surprised by the complexity of the book, it covered everything from hand to hand combat all the way to full scale warfare and multiple troops with multiple fronts. Though Urza didn't know why she was so surprised, after all the book was called Art of Combat, it made sense that would it would cover a wide array of combat. As Urza skimmed through the chapter she saw it delt most with weapons combat, which Urza was already rather proficient in.
The next chapter also didn't catch much attention for Urza. It covered the basics of grappling. Urza knew from experience that there were only six or seven major grapples, but most any of them could be broken just by being a bit stronger than your opponent. Urza looked at the chapter a bit, just in case it contained any information that would one day save her life, but the more she read to more she realized it was just covering the basics, and was overall not very useful to the young girls study. If one thing was true this book made Urza realize she knew a lot more than she though she did.

Urza flipped through the book seeing more stuff that while interesting, didn't hold any new information for Urza. Basic things such as additional tactics in battle: Intimidating or seducing the opponent to lower their guard. A few other things caught her eye briefly though she was unsure of how she would make use of them in battle. Tripping and the likes. while it was all very interesting none of it was information that Urza didn't already know, and or information that Urza couldn't really use. So Urza just skipped over the chapter moving directly to the next.
The next chapter was filled to the brim with useful information. It was a chapter all about fighting shinobi of a higher caliber. Ones that knew deadly magics. The book spoke of spells, or Jutsus rather, that could summon great being from other world to fight on behalf of the shinobi. Included was information about jutsus that could destroy villages in a single blow, and burn forests down in an instant. It was very limited on names and acurate descriptions of such things, as Urza assumed such secret were kept locked up in a village, and were not for the world to see. But still, it provided great insight on what Urza should do should she ever be in a situation where ninja magic was a problem.
The next chapter contained a bit more information that Urza though may be useful. It contained basic battle plans that were used by armies since the beginning of time. Urza recognized a few of them as training formations she had done at The Chantry, and decided it would be a good idea to jot down a few notes so that she could find them in the book later when she was assigned her three man squad upon graduation. Urza wasn't usually a fan of taking a break from physical training for reading, but in this case it was turning out to be well in her favor.
Urza soon lost focus of the book and began thinking about the three man squad she would be assigned. The thought of being paired with a couple of the student she didn't know caused her to panic a bit. What if they didn't under stand her, and were unaccepting of her customs? What if they never wanted to take any missions and never trained? Urza dog eared the book closing it so she could think better. "Well obviously they would have to take some missions... right? Urza furrowed her brow panicking. If they are lazy am I alowed to request a new team? Or can I make my own team? Who will lead the squad? Urza's mind was abuzz with questions.
Now that Urza's brain was buzzing it was like she couldn't turn it off. She pictured in her mind the perfect dream squad that she could be on. She felt like she and Miyako would make a pretty good team. What with Urza being a close quarters combatant and her being a mid ranged proxy fighter. If they could find a long ranged fighter that could shoot fire like a dragon that would pretty much synch the team that would never fall in battle. Urza liked the thought of that. Even if she didn't know the third yet, she was sure she and Miyako would be on a team. It was The Makers will, she could just feel it.

Urza's brain wasn't settling down any time soon. Urza began picturing her team in action together on a mission. Their goal was to find and protect a village under siege from an enemy force. Urza didn't know why her brain came up with this as its first mission, but it seemed exciting. Urza could see herself smashing through demons like the sword of God himself. Slaying the wicked in the name of the innocent. Miayko controlling an small army of proxies, whipping out everyone in their path. It would be a beautiful partnership.
Urza smiled as she though about it. Did she and Miyako even need a third? They were both very powerful on their own, let alone teamed up. If Urza just made sure to be Miyakos shield she was sure the girl could lay down some wicked damage. Not to mention the strength Urza had herself. The Will of the Maker, Urza. Urza smiled at the thought of it. She wondered if she would ever gain recognition in the land of ninja, "Battle Mistress Urza! haha! Or -Or Shield of Heaven Urza!" Urza laughed, she was sounding a bit like Yokijo at that moment. Claiming to be all high and mighty. It was unlike her.
Urza's mind began to settle as she realized that she was no longer reading the book. Urza had noticed she was suffering a great deal from a lack of concentration and focus on her training. Her time away had made her discipline weak, and it was something Urza was going to have to work hard to train back up to snuff. Urza opened the book to where it was dog eared and continued reading. The information was once more child level stuff. Such as the benefits of protection and offence. Urza skimmed through briefly, but once more saw nothing impressive to write down.
The next chapter was a tad bit more interesting. It talked about the major fighting styles of the lands, as well as weaponry and other objects. the book mentioned medicine known as soldier pills. Small capsules that greatly influenced how someone fought in battle. Urza would have to look into those further, as they sounded quite interesting, and potentially perfect for a close quarters combatant like her, who would most likely be feeling the pain more often than not. It only lightly touched on the idea of a medical ninja. She would have to run it by Miyako and see what she thought. It seemed like something someone with a better knowledge of the chakra system should be learning.

Urza mind fluttered away again as she began daydreaming about all the different sorts of weapons there were. If the head Chanter could see her now, oh how he would scold her. Urza had always been the picaresque image of duty and discipline, and here she was in her own mind picturing what she would look like with all sorts of silly weapons, instead of reading and learning. Although Urza missed the military style of her old home, she found the freedom to just think a bit refreshing. Urza didn't wish to abuse this gift to much, lest she fall into mediocrity and sloth. "You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours."
Urza looked down at the book as it went farther in depth to talk about the weapons. Although there was no need to commit it to memory Urza didn't see that harm in seeing what the book said, there may have been a hidden gem of information hidden among the pictures anywho, so it didn't hurt. Urza first read up of the eastern swords. The book had legends about seven swords that possessed interesting special characteristics that set them apart from your every day cutlery. Urza didn't put much faith in legandry weapons though, ever since she had learned the spear of Excalibam was but a rumor started by a blacksmith to increase foot traffic into his store.
Urza finished reading about the weapons, finding nothing of much excitement besides the legendary swords of the mist. The next chapter talked about the chakra elements. Urza had no clue what a chakra element was, but decided it was best to read just in case it came out to be very important. As Urza read she discovered that there were five main elements. Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, and Water. Every person in the world had an element, and some possessed two! It also went on to talk about kekie genkie, and how when dealing with someone with one you had to be careful because they could do unexpected things. Now that was worth noting!

This of course led to Urza's mind to begin buzzing once again. Urza was curious as to what elemental type she was, and if it effected how good of a soldier she would become. As she read the types of elements it made note that Wind/Fire/Lightning were the more offensive types, where as Earth and Water were more defensive in nature. Urza hopped that she was at least Earth, but if she did possess two elements, she hoped one of them would be more offensive in nature. As a well balanced offense and defense made for the most effective soldier, and as that was Urza's future, she hoped that she could be the best soldier she could be.
This than lead to her wondering what a Kekie Genkie was, and if she knew anyone that had one. She remembered Kina mentioning it once during the run. That she could hypnotize people really easily or something. Urza hadn't been paying much attention because none of it made sense to her at the time. She wished now she had listened more closely to her friend. It seemed she possessed a very rare gift, and for Urza to have been able to witness it first had at a more critical level, well, it would have been a fantastic learning and bonding experience! Both of which Urza was lacking as she was now.

Urza wondered what other types of kekie genkie were out there, and what sort of skill they gave them. Urza leaned back a bit and thought about it. Her armor was kind of like a kekie genkie in this land. It was a rare gift that helped her out in combat and was special to a specific group of people. Its not like the Knight clan horded armor or anything, its just most people had moved away from the use of them so it was rare to see it used in combat. Most people just weren't trained to use it properly. She wondered if that counted.
Urza shrugged, it didn't really matter to her if she had a Kekie Genkie or not. Because one way or another she had something almost no ninja had. And that was The Will of The Maker. The blessing of her holy creator whom she gave her very immortal soul to in service. It was through him that Urza was able to be as fantastic a warrior as she was. He gave her focus and direction, and with that she used her own force of will to sharpen her sword and mind. Urza laughed as she though about how fantastic it would be if there was a "Holy" chakra that one could learn to use through The Maker. It was a moot point, but still fun to think about.

Urza wondered what went in to the making of a chakra element. Was it simply someone was born with, or was it influenced by life experiences. If someone was born where it rained a lot did that mean they were going to have a water based chakra? Or if they were born in a place with lots of thunder storms did that mean they had lightning base chakra? But than... How would people get fire? Being born next to a volcano? That didn't make much sense. No there had to be more than just geographical location that went in to determining someones chakra element.
No matter how much Urza thought about it the answer didn't come.Urza was not well enough versed in the language of chakra to understand such fine delicate structure of the system. Urza decided to instead go back to reading to see if there was a way of determine her chakra element, and if there was if it was a hard process. It seemed to her all it took was some chakra and a special piece of paper. She jotted down the name of the paper in hopes to ask Yuzuki sensie next time she saw him. She had her doubts that she would remember though, or that it would seem like such a big deal if she did remember.

As Urza's fascination with the chakra faded she continued her way through the chapters of the book. The next chapter talked about common signals used on recon and stealth missions. Urza wasn't very stealthy due to her bulky armor and loud overall being, but she decided if she could learn the hand signals she would at least cut down noise a tiny bit. It was odd thinking that a stealth mission was even possible for her. Urza was used to Knight law, where you just ran at a lords castle with a torch and pitchfork and settled your problems with a good old fashion mob. Or maybe that was just Chantry rumor.
Urza's mind once more wondered away from reading and back to her old life at the Chantry. She found that whenever she thought about it during training she felt a twige of home sickness strike her in the gut. Urza missed her home and the clerics. The sound of curch bells and the town chorus. Oto was nice and all, but it lacked the beauty of The Maker. Urza didn't mind being a templar, it was great to go out and adventure. She would have never met Kina or Miyako if she had stayed a Sentry, but something about being away from home so long made Urza want to be there even more.❦━━━━━━━━━❧ Lvl. 7 Hp:94/119 MHp: 91/91 Cp: 70/70 Dodge Bonus: 16 Armor Class: 24** If an attack is above the dodge bonus but below the Armor Class bonus damage is halved.

Maybe it was true what they said. that distance truly did make the heart grow fonder. Urza would have to make a note to ask whoever the team leader was when she graduated if they could take a trip to the west. As Urza understood it the fire country was beginning to bring a war to their door step however, so she wouldn't be surprised if she didn't see The Chantry and her people for a long long time. Urza missed home dearly, there was something so warm and inviting about the stone towers and the Sisters classes. Even if they were strict about everything. You could always feel their underlying love.❦━━━━━━━━━❧ Lvl. 7 Hp:95/119 MHp: 91/91 Cp: 70/70 Dodge Bonus: 16 Armor Class: 24** If an attack is above the dodge bonus but below the Armor Class bonus damage is halved.

Urza's thoughts drifted away from home and back to the task at hand. the next chapter, and the last one Urza had the patience to sit through, was about the villages and their military. It seemed the east was split into five major military powers. The lands reflecting the major chakra elements. It seemed the addition of Oto was not formed until well after the other five, but its military presence has always been something to fear. The chapter than went on to describe the fighting styles of the lands, and how each one had jutsus that reflected the lands element. Urza found it all very fascinating, and made sure to jot it all down. ❦━━━━━━━━━❧ Lvl. 7 Hp:96/119 MHp: 91/91 Cp: 70/70 Dodge Bonus: 16 Armor Class: 24** If an attack is above the dodge bonus but below the Armor Class bonus damage is halved.

Now that Urza had her fill of mental training she decided to move back to the physical stuff. Urza closed the book and folded up her note card placing it inside her armor. Urza decided she really needed to invest in a pouch. That of course required money, which Urza was lacking quite a bit of. Maybe after the day was done she could find some manual labor someone in the village to earn herself a pretty penny for the night. After all the day was coming that she would learn a fighting style, it would be nice for the young girl to have money to purchase the required materials. Urza nodded to herself. As if setting it in stone. Money aside Urza had things to lift here and now! Like that giant slab of metal!
Urza tested the weight of the metal slab by picking one up. A single slab looked to weigh about 50 lbs. So finding some rope and with some intuitive thinking Urza tied six of the metal plates together and with a bit of struggled huald them on to her shoulders. She was going to do squats under the impressive weight to build up her leg and core muscles. As well as her shoulders to. Over all it would be a good workout for the young girl, and it wouldn't put to much strain on the body so she would be able to quickly recover and just keep on training as she did at the old school.
With her newly acquired weight Urza dropped down low, flexing her thigh muscles to push herself and the steel blocks back up. "One' Urza said aloud to herself. If Urza could master 10 of the squats she would toss aside the steel like a sack of potatoes and move of to something heavier, or stronger. Urza easily got back to standing position as if it was no big deal. For a girl her age, Urza was a behemoth of strength, she doubted there were many people that had began training as young as she had though, and most likely none as tough as she had.
Urza dropped down again and once more forced herself back to standing with her impressive strength. Urza grunted a bit as the task grew a bit harder with every time she had to rise. Though she couldn't complain. After all, if she wasn't struggling, she wasn't trying. And if she wasn't trying than she was wasting time. And Urza wasn't one for wasting time. Urza laughed a bit before making another count, "Two!" Urza shouted this time with glee. Counting aloud made her think of the days back at The Chantry. Every exercise was in unison, and was counted aloud. Failure to do so was 100 lines of scripture.
Urza dropped down against, but this time she struggled with lifting the weights back up. She had done her first few to fast and her legs were paying the price. Urza was sure if she kept calm and controled her breathing the squat would not be lost and she could still count it, even if it was a little slow. Urza closed her eyes and just focused on not dropping the steel plates or falling. Getting back up would come later. It took a lot of strength, but Urza managed to stabilize herself. Now it was just a matter of matter of mind! ❦━━━━━━━━━❧ Lvl. 7 Hp:94/119 MHp: 91/91 Cp: 70/70 Dodge Bonus: 16 Armor Class: 24** If an attack is above the dodge bonus but below the Armor Class bonus damage is halved.

Urza took a few deep breaths pushing through the remainder of the squat she was doing. "Three." Urza wasted no time going in to the next squat. Urza was a machine of efficiency right now, and she was running hot. Quickly she lowered herself and quickly she managed to return to standing in but a matter of seconds. Urza hadn't even broken a sweat, and she was already most of the way through the training. If she kept her breathing in check and just had fun with it she would be done in no time. There was something to be admired about Urza's efficiency when it came to training.
Urza attempted another another squat, but once more got stuck standing back up. Urza seemed to be underestimating the weight of the steel pates. She would have to treat them with a little more respect if she wanted to get through this. that was one thing Urza had learned that had truly stuck with her about training. Respect your equipment or you could wind up seriously injured. It was like novices who didn't respect a sword, they were often the ones missing fingers or full limbs. Urza wouldn't fall to something like that. Urza was better than those people.
Closing her eyes Urza sent out a prayer asking The Maker for strength. She knew deep down she had the power to lift the slabs of steel. After all she had moved a miniature mountain all on her own! This was nothing compared to the strength that had been required to do that. Given she had rested a lot, and had not been carrying the full weight the whole time. But That shouldn't have mattered. Urza was a strong individual with the force of will matched by few. And When it came to training that will became even stronger. She had to prove that she was worthy of the destiny that lay out before her. She would not be beaten by a few inches of steel.
That seemed to be all the motivation Urza needed to lift the great steel hunk that was resting on her shoulders. "Five!" Urza counted out in triumph. She was half way to meeting her goal. How sweet the victory would taste when she finally reached it. Urza was working as hard as she could to be the best that she could be, and even if no one else saw it, she would know how far she had come, and how hard she had worked. It would not be in vain for it was work that would allow her to protect her friends and home. To be the sword and shield of her people. No, any task she did, she knew it would not be in vain.
Urza belly was filled with the fires of motivation, squatting again Urza felt the weight of the steel as it cut in to her back. Urza fought against it to defeat gravity and rose to her feet once more. Urza was the spitting image of power at that moment. A girl and with armored heart, lifting weights that full grown men would struggle with. Urza was so proud about how far she had come, and she still had so much growing to do! Urza could only imagine what graduation day would be like, and all of the adventures she would have with her team once she found out who the other three members would be.❦━━━━━━━━━❧ Lvl. 7 Hp:94/119 MHp: 91/91 Cp: 70/70 Dodge Bonus: 16 Armor Class: 24** If an attack is above the dodge bonus but below the Armor Class bonus damage is halved.
