*The boy watched her circle him. Other skills? he thought hard. No, none he could think of. He told her the only two, the stealing and the hand to hand kife combat. That was all he was aware of. However he was wondering what she was thinking about him as she circled. What would she teach him first.* "I Ready to try and learn anything you got Ms Keira!" HE said happiliy with a smile.*

A small yet tangible smile crept onto Kiera's face. "Anything?" She licked her lips in anticipation, but looked away as her smile spread around her face. "They didn't tell you. But i put them through hell to get them how they are. They don't like talking about it, or it might just be fun for them to see fresh meat." She took a long pause in thought. "Somehow, and i don't mean any meanness when i say this, you might snap under the same pressure i gave them." She let her golden gaze fall back in him again. "Being as you are how you are. It's not easy to look over. It's clearly a fault. I mean, you can go your whole life overlooking your faults, but they will come back to haunt you if you try to excel." She blinked rapidly as spits of rain came crashing down all at once, but she merely stared up at the sky in disbelief. It hadn't rained for 3 weeks now, and now i decides to let it all out? Typical. As extensive as her powers were, Kiera couldn't predict the weather. Kiera wondered for a second whether that was a skill worth learning. She the snapped back into the real world and looked over to the boy. "Shall we go inside? Or do you not mind the rain as i?" She said in a cold voice, matching the rain perfectly.

*The boy looked to her with a serious face* "Iv'e been in the rain almost my whole life, as long as i have a purpose to be out in it, it dosn't bother me at all. If you will still teach me then i will lisen and learn to the best of my ability." He smiled warmly, "that and wether i'm human or not it's true i can only do so much, but sometimes it's better then nothing at all and waisting my life. Whats first, whatever you throw at me i'll figure out!"

Kiera bit her finger, bemused by it all. "Alright then. Always good to see some enthusiasm. Although it's not hard to predict, from you." She looked up to the pouring rain, squinting so she would just see the shower of sparkling drops. She then turned her back on the boy, enthralled in the torture she could possibly put him through. But with one glance back at him, she knew she couldn't be TOO hard. Although rough all the same. Then a thought came to her, and she scratched her head warily. "Ever used a bow and arrow before, short straw?" And as if out of nowhere, she pulled one of the finest bow and arrow's around. Of course she would have the best pickings. And, Kiera figured, that in this weather, training him with such a tool would be most fun. Especially challenging for someone of his calibration of skill. She winced a little when a pang of guilt hit her, but she shoved it off like a coat.

*The boy took the bow and arrow and studied it. The bow and the arrow were alittle slippery when wet... He sattempted to draw the arrow with the bow, however he was holding it backwords, and the arrow compleatly diffrent then it should have been. "Can't be that hard." He tried to draw the bow and with difficulty he found the arrow slip from his hand and fall to the ground, meanwhile, the string released and grazed his hand. However he picked it up and tried again no matter the pain he now had on his hand as it trimbled and he tryed hard to consentrate.*

Kiera couldn't help but chuckle as she looked down at his 'triumph'. She the snatched the bow and arrows from his hands and held it tight in her grasp as she drew back the string and let the arrow fly into one of the nearby trees. "You have to hold it confidently." Her grip let loose on the bow a little. "Like you know what you're doing. Because honestly, i don't either. That was a fluke." She looked down to him with kinder eyes as she handed him the bow and arrow again. "Breathe in as you draw back the string and exhale as you shoot, it works, trust me." She smiled. It wasn't often that Kiera had to say 'trust me'. But now she had it on her conscience that he was the only one who knew her secret. And she panned to keep it well, well hidden. "And focus on your target like it's someone you despise. That will help your concentration." She sniggered a little.

*The boy nodded and drew the arrow on the bow again, this time however he matched exacly what he saw Keira do. Hodling it the right way as he could barly hold the string for a few seconds he took a quick breath and couldn't hold the string any longer, his streigth wouldn't alow the new force on his musles just yet. The arrow few about halfway and then landed in the ground, sticking up. He looked up to her, "This is harder then it looks, but look i got it better this time." He smiled and tried again, the arrow going just alittle further. However it seemed the thrid time he changed alittle, if keria would notice. His body seemed to ease, he slowly drew the arrow, his body was lined up perfictly as if a pro, and it seemed as if he was almost a diffrent person for a moment as it seemed he let all the surrounding sounds pass. He breathed out slowly and closed one eye. As he released the arrow landed in the tree next to Keiras. He looked up to her, "Aw i aimed at the exact spot as yours that time." He laughed, "I thought of the scarfman as your arrow. Guess i would have missed." he replied out of arrows.

Kiera began to chew her finger again, intrigued. Then, she clapped a little. "Well done. You're a fast learner i see." She lied. She then looked to her own arrow, wondering what enemy she was thinking about when she shot her arrow. "It looks like you got the hang of that." She clapped her hands together in delight. "Next~" She reached into her jacket again and brought out a small, one-handed sword. "I'm pretty sure that two handed swords would be too much of a challenge for you, given as you may not even be able to lift one." She handed the one sword to the boy then brought one out for herself. But this time her hair was sodden with rainwater although she didn't look like she cared. If anything, she was enjoying the rain. She then took a couple of steps back and held out her sword in front of her. "Come at me." She teased.

*The boy looked at the sword. He didn't like swords to much, too much weight to swing around no matter the size. Knives on the other hand were smaller, wieghed less, and were easer to throw and block with. BUt this was was test, he was sure of it. He nodded* "Alright... " He started to swing the sword at her like a noob, as it swung everywhere, infact he didn't even seemed to reach her if she wasn't even to move a musle at all. And he sooner or later ran out of breath and stopped, "Did... did i get you?"

Kiera couldn't help but laugh, again. But she was testing something. Although, Kiera didn't even have to move. Somehow, he hadn't hit her at all, thus Kiera didn't need to use her sword for self defence. Not that she would care anyway if she got a little hacked by a boy. She smiled, looking over to him. "Well. I would lie and say that was interesting. But i don't like lying." She looked in the opposite direction, to some sacks of wheat lying on the edge of the field. She walked over to them and stacked them on top of one another, until she was satisfied. Then, in one swift move, the stack of wheat was sliced in half, right down the middle. "It's the same with archery as it is here. It's better to do one powerful move and exhale on the hit rather than inaccurate, badly paced strikes. Like so. Otherwise, you'll loose footing and breath easily." She looked back to him with her stone cold expression, then began to stack another pile neatly beside the one she just destroyed. She then looked back to him with a smile. "Your turn."

*The boy nodded and walked over to the sacks that were piled up* "No problem! That should be easy." He repiled. But as he would strike at the sacks he always seemed to mis, as if the sword was amagnet repelling of another magnet before they could touch. It was almost as if a force wouldn't let it happen, that or he simply couldn't seem to hit anything with a blade such as a sword in size. A dagger perhaps, it was a mid sized blade, it he would use like a knife. And that gave him an idea. He stopped for a second. He turned the sword around backhand, which normally to most wouldn't be the ideal way to hit anything at all. He backed up and ran twoword the pile of sacks, suddenly he was on the other side of the sacks as they split into three peices. He stood up and noticed as he cut into the enemy he peretnded the sacks were at the time, the swords other side went into his arm at the same time, now making him bleed from quite a good size, deep wound. But he shrugged, "i almost missed."

Kiera shook her head slightly. Her plan didn't work, but she needed to repeat it to be sure. So she quickly grabbed from grass, and pressed it into the boy's wound as she grabbed a large strip of bandage out of her jacket and promptly wrapped it tightly round it. "Hm. It seems your weak point is one handed swords. Eh, never mind. We're all not good at at least one thing." She wavered a little as she bit off the end of the bandage and tied a firm knot. "That should do for now. Replace the grass with antiseptic when you can. But for now, we're still training.Casualties are a minority." She took one step back and looked him up and down, wondering what she should try next. She brought her thumb up to her lips in thought. "Hmm. What to try next.." She fondled her tongue around her mouth. Then, she finally smiled as she thought of something. Something perfect and non-exerting, given the boy's current position. "Ever tried snares?" She asked quizzically.

*The boy scratched his head* "Whats a snare? I've never heard of that weapon before." He smiled, "And thanks for helping my arm... it was okay though, wasn't going to slow me down or nothing!" He joked. His new mistress seemed to be more caring toword him then he first expected when he even wrote the letter. He though things were going to be so tough on him he would hardly make it. But she showed Kindness to him, she seemed to enjoy training him, and she even shared a secret with him. Surly enough he felt trust from her, and loved her for it. He figured he could have never found a better Mistress to take him under her wing then Ms Keria. Never.*

Kiera apprehended him in delight. "You don't know what a snare is? Not surprising, not the most common way of offense. Or defense, depending your perspective of it, of course." She paused a second to look around, scanning for anything she could use to demonstrate, but came up short. "Alright. So a Snare is basically a trap. In retrospect, it could be called more of a death trap. Like bear traps and such. But these things take more thought, like the psychological side of things." She leaned in to him, with a defiant smirk. "This way, you gotta think like your prey to catch 'em. A mutual psyche. Except for one thing, you're not the one gonna' be in the trap." She then began ravaging through her jacket for something to demonstrate with. She had to admit, Snares was not something she was used to using. But that didn't mean she wasn't good with them. But then again, not being familiar with them brought other complications like bringing the actual equipment to his training sessions. She pondered for a moment, before deciding. "Hm. I didn't actually bring anything to teach snares to you. Eh, oh well. I'll have to teach you some other time." She dared take a glance back home. She'd have to face the music soon, anyway. "Looks like we should be heading back. I'll teach you snares some other day. But we've covered a lot today, it was good for a starting session." She looked back to him for approval.

*The boy nodded* "Yea thanks Ms Keria!" he was happy now, and he trailed beside her on the way home, well i guess he could call it home... he wasn't sure yet. However in his head he was thinking about makeing some traps of his own... sadly he didn't have any way of buying suppize, he had no money at all.*
Once home as Keira would noticed Yuji was waiting for her. "Sit." He replied moving a chair for her as he sat in one himself. He unfolded his arms, "i want totalk to you again."
