"What does a ball moving downhill...a human heart..or any heart for that matter...and the planet have in common with the wind?" The balls were sitting idly by, as if inquiring her as well, waiting for her answer.

Ichi looked at the three balls, blinking. She was clueless really. But she really didn'y know what to say. She stuck the ip of her index finger in her mouth and bit at it, thinking.
"They... uhmm.... Don't...stop..."
She was going to say beating, but rolling balls or the wind does not beat.
"Moving???"

"Correct," Keno says in his stern teacher voice, which wasn't much different from his master voice. "They don't stop moving. Not even if anything gets in the way. What about your lungs and your bloodstream?"

This was almost the same as the other question, so it took less time to think.
"They don't stop working?"

"Exact same thing. Slightly different concept, but exactly the same. Now answer me this. What does life have in common with the wind?" Keno wasn't trying to play mind games. He was simply manipulating his student. By asking her the questions she should have asked herself, she would then be able to find the answers...hopefully.

Ichi thought for a moment.
"Life and the wind..."
Keno was asking Ichi questions about things that didn't stop working or moving... So eventually...
"Oh! I know! hey don't stop at at all!"

"Now that you know that. Try and move this ball around in circles and don't stop until I say so." The paper ball rolled forward to the center table and sat impatiently in place as it waited for Ichi.

Ichi sighed. She was tired of training, and she didn't like meditating either, it was sort of boring, but she was afraid Keno would do something to her if she didn't. So... What else could she do? She held out her hand and focused on the ball, a flow of wind pushed against the mall, moving it to the right.

Keno sighed to himself as he looked at Ichi. He could feel her thoughts. Not really read them, but feel them. "Keep moving it around. Make one single motion. Turn the ball without using another burst of wind."

Ichi bit her lip and moved her arm to her right, the wind shifted a bit, but it didn't create another gust. She smiled and turned her body, the ball moving as well.
"Okay..."

"Now let's see exactly how strong your will is." The paper ball vanished as the rubber ball moved to the center of the table. "Roll this around the center table five times."

Ichi took a breath, she could do that, now the only difference is that she had to produce a stronger amount of wind and more control. She held her hand out, and closed her eyes, breathing slowly as she concentrated on her heartbeat. Once again the wind came, thins time, it blew her har around a bit, as she rolled the ball towards her, then southwest of the table, then north of the table, repeating the process. She moved her hand in a circle in front of her, sort of like doing the Cabbage Patch in really slow motion.
