Now out of kunai and only six points away from his goal it was time to switch back to shuriken and finish the training lesson. Shiro pulled out a shuriken and was about to throw when he stopped. Something felt strange, it just felt far too light. Practicing for so long with the kunai must have thrown off his sense of weight for the shuriken. Due to his normal rhythm being thrown off Shiro had to stop and go back through his preliminary practice steps for the shuriken throwing. First he held it in his hand to get a feel for the weight, then he practiced his throwing motion and for the last step he took aim. Despite his practice the throw was still off and the shuriken barely hit the target. It definitely wasn't what the young boy was looking for but the hit still earned him a point bringing his total points up to twenty-six and it also meant that one solid heart zone hit would bring him up to the required thirty-one points.

Shiro was so close to victory that he could almost taste it. In fact it kind of tasted like metal... which of course was because while his mind was lost in Chibi Shiro world his body was actually licking a shuriken which was really disgusting when you think about it. When Shiro snapped out of it he started spitting immediately to try and get the taste of metal out of his mouth. When he was finished spitting he got himself back into a training state of mind. Okay all I need is a head shot and I'm done here. he thought as he took aim at the wooden dummy. Now in a rush to finish up his training and move on to something else Shiro eagerly threw his shuriken at the wooden dummy. However, as the saying haste make's waste goes, his haphazardly thrown shuriken barely hit the target at all. Eh? I'm going to be here forever if this keeps up! he whined to himself. The hit was still worth one point though and that meant that he was now up twenty-nine of thirty-one points.

Shiro had already completed this academy lesson once already but he hadn't exactly been satisfied with the results. His throws had been largely inconsistent and he knew that he needed more practice before he could effectively use kunai and shuriken in the field. Since had done well with the Shuriken least time the young academy student decided that he needed to practice with kunai first this time around. He held the weapon in his hand and became familiar with its weight. Unlike the shuriken which he had become accustomed to, kunai still felt foreign when the boy held them. After familiarizing himself with the weapon the boy readied himself to take aim and throw. By practicing his throwing motion before actually trying to hit the target Shiro thought that he could ingrain the muscle movement required for his throw into his subconscious mind.

Shiro watched with delight as his kunai flew down range and nailed the wooden dummy in the head. This was a dramatic improvement over his last training session. Hopefully with continued practice he could consistently hit a high value target zone such as the the head. With his recent success fueling a sense of accomplishment the young academy student pulled out his third and final kunai. Having thrown two kunai very recently the boy felt no need to get adjusted to weight of this kunai. He practiced his throwing motion for a few minutes just to ensure that he had the motion down. I know that I can do this right and I will do it right. he told himself. When he was certain that he had the motion down for the throwing of a kunai he let the weapon fly towards his target. Shiro hoped that his aim was true because he really wanted to complete this assignment in one round this time around.

The young academy student reached down into his ranged weapons pouch and pulled out his first shuriken. In the previous training he had done quite well with the shuriken compared to the kunai. The weight of the shuriken still felt quite familiar so there was no need to play with the weapon this time. Just like all of his other attempts the boy practiced his throwing motion before doing anything else. After finishing his practice motions Shiro went for the real thing. He gripped the weapon firmly but carefully as he avoided the razor sharp blades that extend from the middle of the weapon. In the blink of an eye the boy had thrown the shuriken at the wooden dummy. The shuriken created a high pitched whistling noise as it cartwheeled through the air towards the dummy at the end of of the field. With a solid thwack the shuriken's blades dug into the wood of the dummy. Shiro could tell that it wasn't a heart hit but had hit the dummy's stomach zone. That hit netted him two points and as calculated earlier that mean that needed four heart hits from hear to finish his training in one round of throws.

Shiro was highly disappointed with his throw but he didn't stop to think about it for long since he still had his goal in mind. Now reaching his goal was mathematically impossible but the young boy was not concerned with things like math at the current moment. At this current moment he was solely focused on hitting the target and trying to complete the lesson in one round so things math the hot temperature of the mid-day sun was nowhere in sight for his mind's eye. Moving on with his lesson the boy pulled out his third shuriken from his ranged weapons bag. This time he took it a little bit slower as he firmly gripped the shuriken and practiced his throwing motion. When Shiro was satisfied with the length of time that he had allotted to practicing his throwing he went into attack mode. The boy let the shuriken fly and watched it as it sailed towards his target. This throw was much better than his previous throw but it was still not as good as some of his throws from the previous iteration of the training lesson. His shuriken collided with the stomach zone again and netted him another two points bringing his total up to nine of thirty-one.

With only two shuriken left in his possession dismal thoughts crept into his mind. The boy hadn't even reached the halfway point yet and he was almost out of ammunition for his throwing exorcise. Why do I suck so much today? I had at least passed the halfway point by now last time. The boy hesitantly held his fifth shuriken in his hand as he looked to the wooden dummy, now stuck like a pin cushion, who seemed to be starring back at him. This.. is... it! Seizing the moment for himself, with the shuriken firmly grasped in hand, Shiro hurled his weapon towards his target in an usually spontaneous manner. Had this been a real battle the boy would be now be dead. His haste had caused him to miss the target and in a real scenario his body would have been left exposed, after the throw, to the enemy. At least in this situation the stakes were far lower than a real battle but those days loomed on the horizon. At the current moment though he was still just a student and the thrill of battle was a distant hope; especially when the boy couldn't even hit a still target. His latest miss meant that he was still stuck at only ten points out of his required thirty one.
