Welcome to Gaia! ::

*Kai dispesed with Vipe and Return to the front of the Annex Waiting for Espyn*

"Over here..." Kai sat with his legs crossed under a large wodden training post, it was around 5 feet in diameter with stokes sticking out of it from many angles.

"Of course...That's the Tundra Gate, all there is is ice and wind, I've never ventured beyond more then the Taiga gate, Tundra is dangerous, most of the good soil is buried deep within snow, however, for a Mizu student as yourself, it shouldn't be anything to worry about." Kai hopped to his feet and began to walk along the path of the Matsu Iwa. "What brought you to the dojo?" He said continuing to walk.

He stopped. "Well since you've already demonstrated your ablity in Ice Mizu, I'dwant you to be comfotable in an environment to be easy first...but...now that you mentioned it." Kai quickly grabbed him and they traveled through the earth in a solid tsuchi form until they popped out in front of the tsuchi gate. As soon as it happend Kai had rushed him through the Tropical gate where Mizu and Ho combined to test his abilities. "Here is where you will train." Kai locked the gate with a tsuchi scroll. Bamboo staffs began to pop up arond them in rows of ten and in between them, human sized golem. "Allow me to demonstrate..." Kai pulled a few shuriken and kunai from his hidden compartments and flung them rapidly at the targets. Some golems ran hiding behind the thick bamboo avoiding being struck down by the rain of weapons. "Target pratice...however, i want you to try by making Kunai and Shuriken out of Ice. With the heat in this area it will make it harder for you to maintain a complete ice form without it melting as soon as you throw it...you'll have to focus your chakra as much as possible to keep it permafrost and then concetrate on hitting your target." Kai through another Kunai straight through a stalk of bamboo sending one of the golems flying. "Your turn..."

-vipe broke a piece of bamboo and caught it and was in ready position.the golem stated to swing at him , vipe dodge a few attacks but the golem hit him on his left side and vipe dangled from his bamboo staff-

"cant give up"

-vipe pulled himself back like a slingshot and shot himself towards the monster with the bamboo stick aimed at the protectors head..vipe makes contact and he flies to the other side of the canyon, and the protector falls down to the deepest compounds of the canyon-

"I made it..thanx Kai"

With eyes pointed only towards the goal, Tutsumi slowly made his way towards Jungle section of the annex. The hem of his jacket blew softly as the warm but stingy winds blew past him. He wondered slightly if it was going to be just a normal training section, or if he would actually find something of interest.

Nodding once more, Espyn and his bunshin stepped forward, the short rest allowing their quick-healing bodies to regain all of their stamina over the period of time. Espyn at 100% and his bunshin at 10%, just as before. The focused on their hands and converted 8 percent of chakra each, both creating wavy blue auras in the shape of 4 kunai and 4 shurikens, each between the fingers of both hands, forming into thick, frozen ice. The smiled slightly and hopped in sync, twirling on their toes to gain some speed and then flung their icy weapons at the golems that were beginning to peak from behind the bamboo. "Ring of 16 edges!" the shouted, their items soaring towards the stone statues, leaving no water this time, only slight trails of bright dry ice.

The kunai and shuriken whistled past the bamboo, piercing several of the golems, freezing their stony outsides on contact then shattering them with the shockwave force. The weapons that hit the bamboo did the same, causing the upper parts above the point of impact to crack and collapse, sending sharp edges of metal-like bamboo raining upon the remaining golems.

Espyn and his Bunshin only leaned over slightly, catching their breath within a few moments, both smiling and glancing at each other.
