(minmark sorry it wasnt my itention to leave you w/o my reply. with so many i things i forgot that you were waiting when i posted here. I realized that ive left you waiting and quickly assume that you gave up on my reply again my apologies do you still wish to continue?) he wasnt surprised that she did that, perhaps, he wasnt clear enough. she mistook this as traning
he unsheated his sword in a distinctive way this is what is known as Iaido. His swing was extremely fast aiming towards the tip he cut it and sheated his sword again all in a blink of an eye. Leaving her a blunt weapon the staff hit its mark on his stomach but he didnt even flinch apparently she thrusted without force. "You gotta be calm dont let fear get the best of you. Try again and please this spar is not restricted do what you must to survive. -he pushed aside the staff and walked a few steps back without diverting neither his focus or his sight from her-

Frowning slightly, she had no time to react before her weapon was cut in two. With the instruction to do what she had to, she instinctively decided that she wanted her staff back in one piece. Holding the remaining piece in one hand, she made a sweeping motion with the other hand. This caused the two pieces to snap back together again, becoming whole once more. Pursing her lips, she moved the staff in a sweeping motion just above the floor. Upon finishing the stroke with the staff, a fast moving wave of energy appeared from its end, aimed dead center at Seisuke's chest.

(ok minmark thanks) Her attack was fast but with his Sharingan he percieve the movement and trajectory he lowered his stance and rose his chi up then his hands started to glow he lowered like catcher and catched the ball. This time it more effort to keep it from hitting him so with a quick flip of hands. he sent the upward hitting the ceiling, His hands feeling numb for a couple of seconds "Haha that was good. it made my hands numb for a sec. You gotta think beyond normal, thus giving you the ability to go all out. Now its my turn to retaliate, watch it this might hurt you" After that he jumped doing hand seals finishing with tora, the tiger seal "Katon:Housenka no jutsu(Fire release razz hoenix Inmortal Fire Tech. This jutsu sends multiple fireballs at the opponent. As a bonus the user can hide shuriken inside them for a surprising secondary attack) 12 fireballs with shuriken inside came hurling down at ziven's direction at an incredible speed. He was eager to know how she would react to such assault.

*Arch had found a place in the left upper corner on the inside of the dojo. His body had shrunk, letting him become almost invisible as he watched them, safe and sound in a crack on the top of the panel*

Hearing his words, she gave a soft smile. Unfortunately he had hit home on an important issue to her. Unfortunately, she did not have the time to respond to it currently as he moved forward with sparring. Though she did not know what it meant, she realized immediately that he was advancing with an attack on her now. Pressing the heel of the staff on the ground, a shield of energy expanded in front of her, deflecting the fire and shuriken that were hidden in the fire, which she noticed only when they fell to the ground. Curiosity now peaked, she bent down to examine one of the weapons, lowering the shield. "What are these?" Remembering that he said she should do whatever it takes to survive in this, she decided to turn the table with this. After saying a few words in the Ancient Language, the 12 shuriken sprang to life once more, hurtling back toward Seisuke and the ceiling behind him. Instead of being surrounded by fire, they were instead cold as dry ice.

Her retaliation meant one thing, she finally understood his word. Though he was now on a tight spot he was in the air and the shuriken were going fast "Damn, think fast" using his instinct he unsheated his two kodachis blocking with the swords most of the shuriken trying to spin to evade the others, one scratched his shoulder he screamed cuz of the piercing cold he falls and touches his arm. the pain slowly receeds thus he recieved the first injury how ironic that was. he proceed to do another move, though now he move towards her closing the gap between them

When the shuriken hit his arm, her eyes went wide. She moved as if she would go to his side and heal him if needed. The next moment, she realized he was calculating what step to take next. Staying where she was, she flashed an apologetic look, but did not say anything. She was unsure that sending another volley his way before he sent one back would be considered underhanded, but she decided to try and see what instruction he would have next.
Widening her grip on the staff, she concentrated for a moment. Several lines of light swirled above the top of her staff for a moment before it too rocketed toward Seisuke, this time aimed for the shoulder opposite that had been hit by the shuriken.

He saw the attack coming so he took the spar up a notch by dodging sideways at a speed that would seem unbelievable to her. This was his time to retaliate by moving foward he close the gap between them after he dodged, he perform what is called a shundo hopping from one side to the next he would leave an intentional afterimage to confuse the opponent at the time he was already in front of her. He knew that close combat battle was not her forte. He punched intentionally missing by mere milimeters from her face trying to disorient her from his now in motion Jyuuken(gentle fist or eight trigrams. yes is the style that uses neji) palm strike at her stomach area.

Seisuke moved so fast, she could barely see him, only wisps of movement. Before she knew it, he had come very close to hitting her in the face, then went for her abdomen. Though he did not make contact, she could feel them both. Instinctively she reacted by bending over slightly and twirling around, trying to keep him in her sight. She wondered if this was his way of saying to use caution of close range action or that, despite having told her that she should not hold back, that he was unwilling to harm her.
Reaching her left hand out in front of her, she spread her fingers wide before closing them, a if she were grabbing on to something, saying a few choice words as she did this, casting a binding spell on his feet, holding them together, which would prevent him from running about until she released it or he were to use magic to counter the effect.

he laughed when she binded his foot movement every move he made though made intentionally so she can learn to protect herself, she has him eager to see more of her in action as he stood laughing, he was thinking what to do she still need more learning to do but, he wasnt giving any hints to her now. he thought that intense emotion often brings the best abilities of a special person. He took two papers wrote something in a language she doesnt understand and place those on his ankles. They clung to them and soon after a ring appeared around each ankle. The rings were larger than his ankles and were hovering and spinning he could move again. "Youre still holding back. You show promise but you lack courage show me what your capable of" He did 5 hands seals ending with tiger again he said "Katon: karyuu endan (fire release: Flame dragon fire missile)from his mouth a huge stream of fire in shape of a dragon came rushing full power towards her. If she doesnt act fast she will burn to ashes.

When he laughed, she figured she had made a fool of herself so much that he were ready to give up on her. But instead he continued with advice. Knowing something was about to happen, she waited a moment to get a clue as to what she was up against. Once a ball of flame formed, she had to move quickly. With a small pop, she disappeared from where she stood, only to reappear behind Seisuke a moment later. When she spoke, it was clear that she was feeling sad. "Indeed, I am holding back. I do not wish to harm you, Seisuke."
Inhaling deeply, she continued, even though she did not feel she should. Waving her hand, she released a great gust of wind which would cause him to go soaring across the room if he did not have a way to control his movement in the air.

When she appeared behind him his eyes widened and a smirk in his face was shown as he wanted her to do that. As he flew away like a person normally would do a cloud of smoke appeared where he was, the smoke cleared fast and a large trunk of wood had hit the ceiling and fall hard on the floor. Indeed his Sharingan had anticipated her move a devised a substitution jutsu before her reached him. After the whole ordeal passed he was nowhere to be seen but his voice was heard everywhere "Hahaha dont you think i was holding back too... Understand that . As for harming me, if you hold that naive thought you will be the one hurt not me" He let himself be felt he was behind her, his back against hers, his hair covering his eyes as he spoke yet again in very calm tone "If you dont come at me like you want to hurt me youll never touch me from this point onward. Be careful Ziven-sama i dont wish to harm you either. Some people say that when theres no choice you must move onward without hesitation, You hesitate you may lose your life in a real battle. In a real battle theres no such thing as underhanded tricks one win one loses, Thats it. In this world only those who know when to do what it must be done are the most wisest and kindest people, Cuz if i defefat you to the point that no matter what you try to do you cant win then whats the point of delivering a killing blow is it? You see theres a fine line between a honorable warrior or a heartless coward. Follow your heart always. Now make these moments one we could really learn from each other, ok. This is my last advice until we finish." Having said that he walked away from her and stood again in front of her something that he learned that one must not attack a person until he addressed the opponent directly and in front of him/her so there would not be any handicap from either side gripping the sheath of his swords he entered a stance most peculiar, His chi filled the dojo and a increasing pressure was felt. Still for this to be an honorable spar he must hold back anymore. He will now attack as if she was enemy gauging the amount of power he must use to stop her on her tracks.

A battle now waged within her. Would it really mean the difference between success and failure if she were unable to overcome Seisuke here? Though he most likely did not intend to, the feeling of standing back to back was comforting. This showed her that he cared for both their wellbeing, despite wanting they both to push themselves.
"Yes, I assumed you were holding back. Just now, because you did not make contact when throwing punches proved it. Does this make me happy? Not really. I am not sure of myself at all Seisuke. On one hand, I am not skilled with combat. On the other hand, I know several spells for killing. If one knows how to protect against it, I will be challenged however the fact still remains that with many, they have no chance. I suppose in that sense I rely on my knowledge as a shield far too easily."
Something in the room seemed to change. Watching his movements, she was unsure if she should act again. Deciding that it was technically his turn to advance, she remained where she stood.
