Clow watched her from the corner of his eyes, releasing the Fuuma high over her head and his head. At first it went straight for the wall, and then reared itself, turning up against the wall to climb it. By that time, Clow had flickered from his great speed, and appeared running up the wall, and eventually clamped his hand back on the Fuuma Shuriken, before free falling, and using this momentum to spin himself rapidly like a blur in the air, while his Fuuma spun around still in his hand. His hand too, was a blur because of this. But eventually, as he landed, he landed using the spinning rotation of his body, dragging his foot back and then his arm, to hold it outstretched behind him and lean forward, using his free hand to keep balanced on the ground in this position. The spinning rotation of his Fuuma had ceased in his hand, but he quickly started the lunges aerial movements, motions, etc. again, slowly starting up the rotation of the Fuuma in his hand again.

Just as the shuriken passed in front of her, she spun and lunged the other way, continuing with her patterns, keeping note of Clow's position, but not appearing to pay him any mind.

Clow's eyes closed, as he stayed behind her with some distance. He smirked, and then let his eyes flash open with his brilliant, and advanced Level Four Sharingan eyes come back into play. With that notion made, he spun about on one foot a few times, before released his Fuuma from his hand at a swift pace, cutting clean through the air straight towards Damaris. Clow's feet lifted from the ground from such a force, and while in the ground, his body flickered and he vanished.

Nearly too late, she managed to dodge out of the way of the shuriken, rolling out of her current stance and ending facing the direction the shuriken had come. Seeing that Clow was no where in sight, she went right back into her pattern, determined to try to use his attacks as supplemental training to her normal routine.

The Fuuma reared again going straight into the air, as Clow's body reappeared in a flicker, only to be caught again. Using the momentum, he spun around once, and used a stronger force than last time to 'rip' through the air this time, and send it hurtling towards Damaris once again. Clow free fell shortly after, slowly but once again flickered away.

Again, she dodged out of the way, this time with a little more breathing room. And again, without a Clow to directly confront, she worked back into her normal pattern.

The Fuuma spun out of control, veering to go against the ground at waist level, from behind Damaris. Clow was already waiting, watching Damaris, seeing that she was more open now that the last two times. If she could dodge this one, he'd giver her props. Eventually throwing himself into the retrieval, he leaped forward, catching the Fuuma, and then spun around rapidly using such odd momentum to release the blade towards her, hard and fast, letting it do a criss cross type of pattern, making it look out of control. It was stable though...even though it left a ripple along the ground, tearing away bark from the wooden floor in it's wake. Clow didn't move away after. He stayed standing after releasing his Fuuma, watching contently. The impact would be enough to barely harm her, but enough to knock her off of her feet a good distance from where she stayed on her feet.
Would she dodge...or would she be too late?

Even though she saw it coming, she wasn't able to accurately gauge it's direction, and instead of dodging out of the way, she dodged right into it. She immediately fell over and blacked out, her katana flying out of her hand as she fell.

Clow's Fuuma turned to the right, sharply, and began for it's owner, just as he stepped forward and started walking for Damaris. Blinking once, Sharingan vanished from his eyes, and he let an arm reach out to the side, catching the Fuuma Shuriken in it's 'unopen' state, with 'one' blade showing. He was expressionless, as he finally hooked his weapon back to his belt like it was a pair of keys, and stopped at Damaris' body, kneeling down slowly, and rolling her over onto her back. He sighed, and then looked her over, seeing her uninjured.
"When you think one path is the right way to go...You could be wrong. Choose a different path."

After a few minutes, she started to come to, regaining her vision slowly. The first thing she noticed was a pounding headache, but then she noticed a sharp pain in her lower back. She started to make out the shape of Clow looking over her, and she rolled off of her back and on to her stomach.

"How you feeling?"
Clow asked, perking an eyebrow and giving a small, weak smile.

"My head hurts. And my side is starting to hurt some too," she managed to get out, trying to take deep breaths, and thus making the pain in her side more apparent. "Can you bring me my cup of water?"

Clow nodded to her, and stood to his feet looking around the room before spotting the water at the side of the room on a lonely table with chairs on it. He immediately went into a dash for it, grabbing it, turning back around and walked back to her. He knelt down to her level again and handed it to her.
"...As long as you're alright."

"I can probably manage to sleep off this headache. I'll just be sore a few days probably. But I think I should probably head to bed. Think you can help me to my room?"

Clow nodded, as he put her arm around his shoulder and hoisted her up to her feet before leading her towards the door.
"Just understand...that my intentions weren't to hurt you. I was testing you. I knew just by looking at you, you were good at Kenjutsu, but everyone as their flaws...I wanted to see if you had one. I hope you don't take offense."
