Rhea moved off of Aras as Armus knelt near them allowing Aras' hands to fall. The still baggy modified robe covered his shame. He squated like a wolf and sighed wanting to lick himself and relieve the building pressure in his young body.
He smiled and nods moving to grab Aras's bag in his teeth and flicked it over his back. He smiled, "Rreeedee" He said threw his clenched fangs.
Kanis picked up her back and looked at Ruran's. She did not like the face that she would have to leave it. She sighed and moved to pick up her brother's back as well.
Ruran nods and wound his arm back before throwing the punch with all his might into the left hand nailing it square in the palm but when he moved to hit the right hand he slipped and fell on his back in the dirt.

Aras blushed a bit and giggled as Rhea took her bag, embarrassed but honoured that he was helping her.
"Here, Kanis, let me take Ruran's bag then," she smiled at her sister, holding out one hand to her. "It's not fair for you to carry two bags and me none."
She was grateful to Rhea, but she couldn't leave Kanis out to dry.
Corrah caught the punch and was satisfied with it (considering it was the boy's second try), but he could feel as Ruran pulled his fist back that there was a bit of a wobble, and he wasn't surprised when Ruran fell as he attempted his second punch.
"When you're throwing a punch," he told Ruran, "no matter if it is one or many, hard or gentle, you must also always be aware of your feet. Keep your balance ... brace yourself. Your upper body will be moving, your lower body must be ready to respond."
He held out one hand to the boy to help him to his feet.
"Now come on, try again," he said firmly.

Kanis nods, "Alright Aras...thank you." She handed over Ruran's bag and smiled, "Alright Armus we are ready to go."
Rhea as he started to walk on all fours he started to to really feel the tenseness of his body. He would look back between his legs from time to time wondering what was going on. He really wanted these close off and to explore Aras' scent again and the changes of his own body. as soon as he had a chance he was going to be off exploring.
Ruran dusted himself up sighing and dusting himself off. He nods and started to be more careful with his feet moving a bit more gracefully and keeping the power in his hand. He was becoming very aware of his limbs very quickly.

Armus smiled at the children. "Come with me, then," she murmured. She wanted to tell them to leave Ruran's bag there, but she had a feeling that nothing she said would convince them. Ah well, she would deal with it when the time came. Yet she was almost one hundred per cent convinced that Ruran would not be grateful for their help.
Corrah held his hands up once more for Ruran to keep trying to punch him.
"Put one foot forward and hit me repeatedly with the same hand," he instructed. "Get used to one hand first, then we'll work on your other hand, and then try both of them in turns. Hard as you can, come on."
And he nodded encouragingly and even ventured a little smile.

Kanis nods and follows Armus. "Yes ma'am."
Rhea stopped and smiled, "Bathrrroom" he barked softly and smield. "Catch up....when done." he said and ran into a bush with Aras' bag.
Ruran smiled and looked almost sweet and like a kid at play. "Yes sir." he said and started to work wiht punching with one hand and stepping at the same time. He was really enjoying this now. Fight training was suppose to be fighting and training to fight.

Aras looked sharply after Rhea as he ran off with her bag, but at his reassurance that he would catch up with them, she nodded uneasily and looked up at Armus.
"Are we going to keep going?" she asked softly, hesitantly.
Armus smiled reassuringly and nodded. "Yes, he'll catch up with us," she smiled. "He knows the area, and he has a nose like a wolf ... I'm sure he'll be able to find us without any difficulties."
And she continued to lead the girls forward through the forest.
Corrah let Ruran use his one hand for several minutes before stopping him.
"Now switch to your other hand," he instructed, assuming that it would be Ruran's weaker hand. "Same thing. One foot forward, watch your balance. Hit me hard."

Rhea giggled hearing Armus' words he let out a fun friendly howl. He then moved to a bush to get out of the clothes for a minute or at least working with the clothes and his eyes glowed as he looked over at the bag that was now set on the ground and the small belts at the top of them.
Kanis nods and walks, "I guess he can heal like a wolf as well." she laughed, "You really really like him don't you Aras?" She asked looking at her sister.
Ruran nods and switched position and hand working just the one side. "Hard yes sir! Balance yes sir!" He was doing what his sister have yet to learn. As a man should.

Aras blushed brightly, but she was smiling very widely as she nodded at her sister.
"Yeah," she said quietly, fidgeting with Ruran's bag on her back. "I do ... he's really special to me ..."
And though she didn't say it aloud, she knew that she was special to him as well. She wasn't quite sure how yet ... but she did know that he growled whenever they were together and someone else tried to get between them, and he always seemed to pay her particularly close attention, and he almost seemed to ignore the others, at least when she was around. She wasn't going to complain, though. She felt nothing but honour and happiness.
Corrah could feel that Ruran's other hand was indeed weaker than the first, and as the boy continued to punch, he asked, "Do you write with your other hand, the one that you used first?"
Perhaps he would be mistaken, but he had a feeling that he wouldn't be. After all, it was only natural that the more developed side of the body would be stronger, the side that was used to write. It didn't mean anything except that Corrah would know which side needed more work so that both sides would have equal strength.

Kanis nods, "I see...and you look very specail to him. He really seems to enjoy being with you too." she smiled and looked at the ground as they walk. She took a slow breath, "Armus is it very far? Not that I am complaining I just wondering." She looked up at the older female.
Ruran nods, "Yes I just my left hand more often. And my left side is rather stronger." he smiled and nods. He watched the other. "Is that bad?"

Aras's blush grew even deeper, and she lowered her eyes to the ground, smiling very widely to herself, both embarrassed and pleased by Kanis's words.
Armus smiled at Kanis apologetically. "I'm afraid it is a bit of a distance, yes," she admitted, "and it's also at a slightly higher elevation. I should probably warn you, Corrah's going to slowly be moving you higher and higher on the mountain as you train. Nothing bad or anything, and I'm not sure how much you'll notice the change in altitude, but it will help change your blood a bit so that it absorbs more oxygen. The more oxygen your blood can absorb, the more natural your actions up here will be, but when you get down to lower ground, like where your parents live, you will have more oxygen in your blood than they will, and you will be faster, stronger, and have sharper minds --- in general."
Corrah nodded. So the boy was left-handed.
"No, no, it isn't bad," he smiled faintly. "It's perfectly natural. Everyone has a strong side and a weak side, it's simply the way we are all born. Many people are never able to change that, but with work, you can make your right side just as strong as your left, and there is every possibility that someday, if you work hard enough, you may be as strong as me."
Possibly even stronger, though he doubted that.

Kanis nods listening to Armus. But then would we not need to continually return to the mountains to make sure our blood stays strong ?" She felt a but sad that ruque would not get the brain boost but then again he was super smart already. She smiled at that thought and nods, "Well that is really cool we will almost seem like super heros." she laughed.
Ruran smiled a tad bit evilly." Well isn't it not the best way to show a master they learned well, by surpassing them? So now I have a goal." he nodded then looked at the older male, "What hand are you strong with?"

Armus smiled. "If you're like Corrah, then your blood will stay strong no matter where you go, and no matter how long you are away from the mountains," she told Kanis happily. "But even if you did lose that advantage, you would still be stronger and faster than most of the people you know, I'm sure of it."
Corrah chuckled softly and clenched both of his fists together. "I have equal strength in both hands," he told Ruran with a smile. "But when I was first born, I was stronger in my left as well. Hard work has made me what I am today ... and with hard work, well, who knows? Maybe you will surpass me someday."

Kanis shook her head. "No I don't think I will have blood anything like Corrah's. But I will be strong one day at least." She nods and watched her seemingly distracted sister.
Ruran winked at Corrah, "Then I shall surpass you one day." he nods and smiled and nods, "Whats next?"

Armus nodded certainly. "Yes ... you will," she agreed.
Aras was off in her own little world, not really paying any attention to either her sister or their guardian, held captivated by her own thoughts. But suddenly the conversation around her ceased, and she was startled out of her reverie. She looked at Kanis and blushed softly.
"Sorry ... did I miss something?" She coughed slightly. "I wasn't paying attention."
"More," Corrah replied without hesitation. "Only this time I won't be standing still for you. I'm going to be moving, and I'm going to count how many times you hit me and how many times you miss me. One hour straight, no pause, no breaks. Then we'll rest and do it all over again, and we'll see how much you can improve in only one day."
He stood tall then and held his hands out, ready to move them without any warning at all.
"Ready?"

Kanis nods and the shakes her head, "No you did not miss much. Thinking of Rhea again? I am sure your bag is just fine Aras...and Rhea will catch up soon enough you will see. I am sure he could track your scent even threw water."
She gave a laugh then sighed wondering how thier brother was fairing with Corrah. Maybe the older man really just wanted a male trainee and though every now and they he would train herself and Aras, he was only going to concentrate on Ruran. She had still seen more of Armus than of Corrah. She would not complain...at least they would still have the one trainer. She would just have to go find a new necklace for Armus.
Ruran smiled this sounded fun. Just have to go and hit Corrah. "Am I aiming for the hands or any where on the body?" He looked over Corrah he knew this was not going to be easy but he knew that he would score at least one hit before the day was over.
Rhea had tried multiple times to 'claim' Aras' bag and had finally given up to rolling around a bit with a belt or a shirt. Getting her scent all over him. He had slipped out two belts and was now wearing them as collars around his neck.
Now that his young body was not as flustered as it was he picked up the bag and started to follow and catch up to the females. Mainly using the real Aras' scent as his guide.
