"Alright," she said with a smile, before finishing up her ramen. "Training room then?"

"Unless we train outside, but it's still a little chilly. So training room it is then. Don't worry about the dishes. I'll tend to them later."
He then nodded to her reassuringly before standing up and leading the way out into the hallway.

"Alright," she replied, standing to follow. Suddenly a wave of nervousness came over her, remembering what happened the other night. Clow knew more of her past though, so he might realize what was going on well enough to not be concerned if it happened again.

As they traveled down the hallway, Clow finally stopped at two large double doors. He turned to them and looked to the side at Damaris with a smile while opening the room and then flicked the light switches on. He then turned back and held the door.

She walked in, her hands fidgeting a bit as she entered. She waited for Clow to tell her what he wanted her to practice first.

Clow stopped a certain distance from her and then turned around to face her with a smile. He had already put Sharingan up just in case, something bad happened. Luckily, this new level, of four...let him use some qualities that Byakugan had, but it was really undeveloped so far. He was still working to master this new level.
"Alright. Focus now...and produce 10 clones to begin with."

"Alright. It might take me a few minutes to get started."
She stood in the middle of the room and closed her eyes. She began to focus her chakra, and as she expected, the thoughts of that day tried to come flooding back to her. Her face contorted into an obviously pained look, but she pressed on, doing as she'd done previously and thinking of pulling the throughts from her head and wrapping them up in chakra. After a few moments, she shouted "Bunshin no jutsu" and expelled the chakra, imagining the thoughts leaving her body as well. She managed to make ten clones, and her body didn't feel too much worse for the wear as it had the other day when she felt like she spent all of her energy fighting the thoughts.

The clones seemed normal, but he knew she could produce them again, with higher energy levels. You could poke these and they'd disappear. He narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly.
"Good. Try again...I need to see something."

She nodded, dismissed the clones, then started again. It was going a bit easier today, and that made her happy. She knew that if she couldn't work past the thoughts she'd never make any progress at all.
Again she focused her chakra, and again had to fight with the thoughts flowing through her head. They were a bit more persistent this time, however, but she still managed to push through it, and once again popped up 10 clones as she shouted "Bunshin no jutsu"

Clow smiled even wider, noticing the change in power levels distributed through the clones. He was quite pleased. Then he nodded to her.
"One more time, and we'll move on."

Again, she nodded and dismissed the ten clones that were up. She started on the final batch. It seemed she was beginning to get the hang of working with the thoughts that floated around in her mind. She knew that the jutsu she was doing couldn't really hurt anyone on it's own, and that comforted her enough to be able to push through the sea of thoughts and push out another ten clones with a shout of "Bunshin no jutsu"

Their power levels seemed to be in align with one another, and much much stronger too. He smiled, and gave her a small applause.
"Good, Good. Now...Let's test your Kawarimi shall we. Brace yourself, and I'll throw a Shuriken at you. Try to replace yourself with something else."
Clow reached back into his pouch and pulled out a few Shuriken and then waited for her approval to start.

She looked around the room, trying to see what was there for her to replace herself with. She decided on one of the training dummies. However she didn't decide on the last one she looked at, in case this was some sort of test of sneakiness as well.
She nodded and waited for him to release one of the shurikens, already starting to focus her chakra a little bit.

Clow let the silence fill in, and within a few moments, Clow flicked his wrist, releasing a shuriken at high speeds. Time to test her speed and Kawarimi out.

The instant she saw his wrist begin to move, she quickly pulled up what she felt was the right amount of chakra before quickly muttering "kawarimi no jutsu". She knew this was one jutsu that wasn't good to shout out. She had chosen one of the training dummies off to Clow's left as her target, and she attempted to replace herself with it.
