She was back on her feet now but she still wasn't able to correct the flow, it seemed all she could do just to keep it in tact. 'Come on...come on chakra...I know that you can do this for me... no, I know I can do this for me... this isn't even about control anymore...it's about my shere force of will, my burning desire to succeed. Her eyes seemed to catch fire with passion, as they often did, and she shouted "I am..." she seemed to be completely caught up in her task "A CHAMPION...!!" She stood tall yet again, her eyes blazing forward "OF JUSTICE!!!"

"AHHHHHHH!!!!!" She was regaining hold of the energy, the flow growing as she put her all into this single exercise. 'There's no way I won't do this! My spirit shines with a thousand suns! My youth in it's great springtime of victory! I am going to double my record and increase my chakra reserves no matter the cost! So that one day...' her eyes flashed "One day I will defeat him!!" she shouted aloud. He chakra continued to crawl towards her surface of her skin, her hold on it growing and growing....she just had to keep this pace, if she could just get it back up to critical levels... just a little bit more!!

'Yes...yes...yes....' She had it back up to speed, but only just, she knew she couldn't let up by even the slightest, or the chakra could spiral back down, she closed her eyes his will still burning with the desire to keep going, the chakra itself seeming to run with this intent. Her chakra, like her, was fighting with everything it had, and it was no easy task for her to control it... but still...
She knew she could do it... she knew she could. To her, in this moment, it was a certainty... Of course she didn't really know, but that wasn't the point. She had to make herself know, to truly make herself believe she could succeed...was going to succeed, even if it wasn't true...that was was just something a hero did.

She felt herself shudder, the chakra flow abating somewhat. She was long past her limit, her body knew it if she didn't, but still she wasn't letting it be, she wasn't giving in to the urge to stop. Her eye lids were drooping her eyes becoming glazed every so often, her chakra reserves essentially gone, yet still... she fought to maintain her pace, fought to go on just a little longer...just a little longer. She clasped her hands ever tighter together and let her face become almost befitting of the young girl she was, she seemed almost desperate to reach this goal...if indeed she couldn't reach the one she'd intended...

Roll:5 (The odds of this are insane... what did I piss of the dice or something?)
"No...no no no no..." she muttered fighting collapse. She once more gritted her teeth...'It can't end when I'm so close... I won't let it...I will succeed...I will...!' Her chakra suddenly seemed to ripple, the power of her indomitable will conducting through it. She opened her eyes there emerald color illuminated in the dying light of the sun. From a certain angle it looked as though Kimiko was lit ablaze, she set her footing one last time and with all her might gave another effort, another effort to put out enough chakra...

Training Complete!
"HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!" She shouted the chakra flooded back all through her body, her own spirit actually, for a brief moment, seeming to glow around her. She held the level until, at long last, her time ellapsed...and her record was broken.
The connection finally broke and Kimiko was standing there panting, drenched with sweat and feeling like she'd run several marathons. She breathed in...then out. Then...she smiled as she passed out backwards. Like last night she'd collapsed, her mother would come looking for her later, but for now she went off into a blissful sleep, the smile still plastered on her face. She muttered somthing as she sunk deeper into sleep "Justice and...love...will always..." she nodded off deeper, her sleep undisturbed.

Kimiko stretched her hands to the sky. "Ahhh... I can just tell...today is going to be the best, day ev-"
"Momoe-san." Xenon addressed in a jovial voice.
Kimiko spun about with a look of fury "Maboroshi! So you finally woke up from your little nap huh!"
Xenon was pleased he'd finally found the girl, she always seemed to be around when he wanted to avoid her, but when he'd finally got the mind to go looking for her she'd been difficult to find...imagine.
Kimiko pointed at his face with a confident smile "Hah! You thought you could avoid me but-"
"I've been looking for you."
Kimiko froze "You...you have?"
Xenon pushed up his glasses with his usual mellow smile "Yes, I was wondering if you'd care to make a deal."
Kimiko's eyes narrowed intensely, her eyes boring into his. "What kind of deal you nefarious machinator?"
Xenon chuckled "Ahh, always such interesting conversation Momoe-san," his smile became slightly sly "I know that you are probably completely clueless when it comes to jutsu..." A vein appeared over the dark haired girl's head but Xenon didn't seem to notice this...or if he did he didn't care. "And it just so happens I need a gin- Er...I mean partner... to help me learn the remaining two jutsu..."
Kimiko sudden looked dramatically blown away. "Wh...wha!!!" she looked blown away "Your asking me for help!"
Xenon shrugged nonchalant "Yes, I suppose one could see it that way." Kimiko looked white, frozen in place through the magic of overly done drama. Xenon blinked "I didn't hear no..." he mused to himself.

Kimiko crossed her arms as the two faced on another across the tree'd in area. The sky was open and the blue overhead was barely broken by a few clouds, but still the air about the young ninja student was dark. She wasn't exactly happy about this...fact was accepting help from Maboroshi was down right infuriating, but she knew it was her best bet to learn the jutsu...and she needed to learn the jutsu...
"Okay Maboroshi...what do I do now?" She asked still with a hint of annoyance in her tone.
Xenon either didn't notice her tone, pretended not to, or found it amusing (incidentally it was the latter) because he just smiled and calmly explained "I just need you to attack me Momoe-san...you'll enjoy that right?"
Kimiko looked amazed "You...you want me to attack you? But...but what for?"
The silver haired youth didn't answer, he laxed his stance and removed his glasses, folding them and putting the in his jacket, removing the white coat and letting it fall to the ground. "Oh it's just to learn a jutsu, I told you... our are you backing out of our deal?"
Kimiko frowned pointing at him with her over zelous attitude. "Never! A true champion of justice NEVER recants on a deal, even if it's with backstabbing swine such as yourself!"
Xenon laughed "I see...then shall we begin?

Second, would be the students who were practicing in pairs. One student would attack using the formula: 1d10 + Str.
Then the defensive student would use their opponents total + 10 to create their DC. They would then use the formula 1d20 + Kawamiri.
Train: 4/4
Experience: +10
Points: +1 Kawmiri
He beckoned to her "Come at me with your best shot."
Kimiko looked serious, sliding into her stance. "Fine Maboroshi...but just remember...you asked for it!" She set into her weight and pushed off with her back foot into a charge. Her fist was pulled back low, coming in for an uppercut that would wipe that smirk right off his face. Kimiko had just realized, this was the chance she'd been waiting for...this was her chance to show him she wasn't a clown, she wasn't really fighting him, but she'd still show him her strength.... "HIYA!"
Xenon watched Kimiko's moves, his eyes tracking her movements as she rushed him, her form was actually alright, she was certainly better at Taijutsu than he was...then again he didn't really count himself as an expert. Kimiko closed the distance between them quickly and her fist shot forth, twisting into an upper cut...
Kimiko:5+2 7
Xenon:11
Train: 1/4
Kimiko's fist connected with Maboroshi's chin, knocking his head back, for one brief moment, Kimiko looked triumphant... then...there was an explosion of smoke and Xenon turned into a log. Kimiko's eyes bugged and she recoiled, taking a step back "Wha...what the...a substituionmawhozit.... but..." she thought back, when had he made the hand signs... he'd had to have made them right at the last second!
"That was excellent Momoe-san."
Kimiko jumped a foot in the air. "Ahh!" She whipped about her fists ready "Maboroshi!"
Xenon seemed in a good mood "That was very good..." he scratched the back of his head looking obliviously bored again "Hm, if things go this well, I'd say two...maybe three more times... three would probably be best." He turned around and walked till the distance between them was restored. "Let's go again shall we?"

"So your practicing substitution..." she said with a renewed determination.
"That's right." He said shaking his wrists as though to work out any kinks.
"I see..." Kimiko cracked her knuckles glaring at him "Well you better be pretty good if you wanna pull that off again..." she slid into her starting form "You're gonna be toast if you let your guard down for even a second!" she shifted her foot a slight to the left.
"Well," Xenon said spreading his arms as though welcoming her "I wouldn't have it any other way Momoe-san..."
Everything seemed to fall silent in the clearing...then Kimiko rushed yet again, this time building the momentum in her legs, let's see him substitute his way out of a jump kick to the face!
Kimiko:2+2
Xenon:4
Training: 2/4
Xenon's eyes went serious as Kimiko changed her attack, at the last moment she pushed off with her back foot, launching herself into the air. Her foot extended quickly, lessen the time he'd thought he'd had to react. His eyes widened as her foot almost brushed his face... then he completed the last hand sign. In a last minute save his supposed self burst into smoke and a log became the object of Kimiko's wrath.
Kimiko slid into a landing and turned around looking perturbed. She was so sure she'd been close that time...her mouth sank downward slightly. He was good...she had to admit it... he was supposed to "learning" this jutsu? She swept to her feet and immediately took her stance again. Still...she was going to get him at least once...or so help her, she was going to do train till her hands and feet bled...
"Again evil fiend!
Xenon brushed his bangs with a single hand, his other in his pocket carelessly "Of course." 'That was close...she's definitely been brushing up...' he smiled about something.

Kimiko was now circling him. Her face burning with conviction. He couldn't help but stifle a grin. She was so hysterical when she was trying to best him. He went slightly more serious 'Still...I might get knocked flat if she actually manages to hit me...
Kimiko suddenly pushed off yet again, her feet carrying her even swifter towards her nemesis. She'd waited until the precise moment he'd let down his guard...or, the moment it looked like it any way... either way she intended to land a blow this time.
Kimiko:8+2=10
Xenon:18
Train:3/4
Xenon shifted his weight ever so slightly, making eye contact with just as he flashed through the hand signs.
Kimiko muttered an incoherent curse as her fist dispersed the jutsu, and actually managed to crack the unfortunate log that replaced Xenon as her target. She yet again immediately turned to find him, and locked her gaze to his. This time however she charged at once, giving him no time for even so much as witty banter...
Xenon spread his stance by pulling one foot back, his hands twitching as they made to make the seals...

Kimiko:7+2=9
Xenon:13
Train:4/4
Kimiko swung with all her might, smashing Xenon Square in the jaw, he fell back unto the earth, where he lay motionless...then burst into smoke revealing a log.
Xenon patted her on the shoulder with one hand, his other stroking his chin thoughtfully "I think that's sufficient... thank you Momoe-san..."
Kimiko looked completely enraged "OOOOOOhhhH!!!" she steamed glaring at him before puffing up her cheeks and crossing her arms 'Stupid Maboroshi... he's always so...so...ARRRRRGHH!' SHE FELT LIKE SHE COULD BEND METAL BAR!
Xenon looked at her with a mellow expression again "Now Momoe-san...which jutsu would you like help with first."
Kimiko's entire air changed to innocently oblivious "You...you mean you're actually going to help me?"
Xenon was putting his jacket back on "I did say I would didn't I?"
"But..." Kimiko put a finger to her chin "But...I thought you were lying..."
Xenon raised an eyebrow "Then why did you agree in the first place?"
Kimiko pointed at him "Because true heroes face their nemesis's plots head on of course!"
A sweat drop formed over Xenon's head "I see...welllll if you don't want me to help you-"
Kimiko waved her hands frantically "No! No! I'll accept your help!"
