Hearing her, the boy's eyes widened, still looking into her eyes. ' Confused? She knows me?' He thought, still looking into her deep eyes, almost as if doing so he would drift off, feeling that Tsu with him. " So... You lost your memory?" He asked her, creeping slowly closer with her. Hearing her comment about it all being black he would steal a kiss from the girl, before pulling away, the sand rushing around both of them. " Allow me to help you clear it all up Kohane; I would gladly help you regain those memories anywat I can." He said softly, genuanly wanting to help the girl, not just because she reminded him of Tsu, yes that was the reason for his quick kiss with the girl, but because he believed she derved to know whom she was; she deserved to know where she came from; if he wouldn't know where he came from, Akura would much rather be dead, not knowing his mother's sacrifice would kill him alive, very slowly. " Allow me to light your way Tsu." He then said, looking into her eyes once more.

Akura walked well into the dessert, the sun beating on his skin, and he let out a sigh. " Time's a wasting. " He said making a single seal, creating a stone clone that rose from the sand beneth his feel. " So lets begin..." He told the clone, the rock manifastation of Akura letting a slow and stern nod. The boy grabbed the scroll and read off the first jutsu of the Tetsu no Ryu, which was a basic chop.

" Prepare yourself. " Akura told the clone, and it mearly nodded, taking out a blade made out of pure stone from his side, meanwhile the real Akura drew his signiture white blade, but he was smart enough to know how to learn the techniques from the style all in rapid succeccion so instead of learning them all, one by one, he'd have a quick spar with the clone in order to learn the techniques. He, the real Akura, took in a deep breath and took a rapid succesion of steps, the sand under his legs being kicked up as he ran, using the first technique of the style, something stupidly obvious to use during a battle; the forward step.

[ forward step 1/1 ]

The real boy closed the distance between himself and his clone; his clone only got his sword ready for a block. As he approached the clone he sliced the air, moving the blade to the side, away from his body. The boy swiftly moved the sword above his head and in one rapid movement he slashed downward, in a vertical fashion. This was the basic chop, and another one of the style's most simple techniques. ' This stage is too easy, why can't things be picked up a little. ' The boy thought looking at the clone whom was parrying his attack by having his sword crossed against his own.

[ basic chop 1/1 ]

The clone started to strugle with Akura using his larger force to push the boy back by placing one hand on the hilt of his blade and the other along side the blade to provide more power behind his sword. " I'm sorry master. " The clone slowly said pushing against Akura with all his power, pushing the ninja back slightly, but far back enough for the clone to get some space to attack. As soon as the boy left the clone's space the clone bolted forward as fast as he could, which wasn't that fast for that matter. He moved his sword and slashed at Akura, but the boy simply moved his body to the opposite side, using his legs to walk back, or skip to be better put, away from the clone, moving from one place to the other, his feet being planted on the sand and printed there as he walked back and away from his slow moving clone.

[ backward step 1/1 ]

Akura eventually stopped to see if he could get space for an attack, but the clone would be hot on his case and slash at him with his stone blade. Initially Akura would just move his body sideways to avoid the attacks but it would get monotonus after a while and more than that, the clone would pick up on what he was doing and eventually build up the pressure against Akura. " Feel lucky that this is sword practice. " He told the clone, moving his right arm, the one with the sword, upward, clashing against the sword. " Oh I do feel lucky; it's an honor. " The clone told Akura, retracting the sword quickly, going in for a stab against the boy, but Akura quickly moved his sword forward, making the stone blade clash with his steel one, blocking the attack.

[ Basic Block 1/1 ]

This time, Akura pushed against the clone, but got pretty much nowhere, so he jumped back, trying to get some space between himself and the clone, just so he could get somewhere and attack. The clone ran toward the boy and he just stood there, spinning the sword in his hand. The clone slashed down at him, but he did a simple side step to the left and then drove the sword forward, impailing it on to the clone's side or so it would seem. In reality the boy only briefly made contact with the clone, a contact so short that he would hardly feel it.

[ Basic Stab 1/1 ]

With that hit Akura jumped back and put his weapon away, thinking that it had been enough to actually destroy the clone, but he was sadly mistaken, it hadn't even made a scratch on the clone. " You think this is over don't you?" The clone yelled out at Akura, running toward it's creator meanwhile his eyes widedned. " I see..." He simply said, trying to keep his emotions under wrap so that the clone couldn't see what was going on in his mind, though odds where he'd already know. He quickly placed his right hand on the blade's shed and just as the clone came by Akura quickly moved the sword out of it's sheeth, attacking the clone just as it past Akura in a very predicable Samurai-like scene.

[ Iaido 1/1 ]

The clone was hit on the lower part of the body, a nasty blow yes, but the clone would live. Akura felt a sudden grip on his side, and he'd look behind him, and there the clone would be standing. " Damn it. " He'd growl jumping away from the clone's grip, becoming airborn without much trouble. Akura shifted his weight to the lower part of his body and fell, letting gravity take care of the rest. As he came down, he moved his sword to the side, slashing at the clone once it was within his range, driving his sword into it's shoulder. The sword came in from the back of the shoulder and came out on the opposite end of the ribs, slashing the clone's torso in half with that one slash.

Sweat poured down Akura's face, he was panting a bit because of the heat of the sun, not the actual training. " This s**t it easy." Was all he said, his bodily fluids crashing in the ground, getting the sand moist for only a few seconds. He put his weapon away and picked up the Tetsu no Ryu scroll and read over the next set of jutsu, which would take him a little more time to master because of how much more ' complicated ' they where. Or simply because he didn't have a teacher and would have to learn them on his own which really sucked for him.

He wrapped the scroll and placed it on his hip and he put away his sword. " Clone number two. " He said making a single seal, creating yet another clone out out stone that stood in front of the body. " Alright, come at me. " Akura ordered to the clone, whom drew a stone blade from his hip and held it with both of his hands. He slowly nodded to Akura and pushed his both stone, and heavy, legs against the sand, propelling the clone toward Akura. As the clone neared Akura he closed his eyes for a brief moment, ' Move your leg to the side and at the same time move your body the same way. The boy thought, opening his eyes in a heart beat, seeing the clone right in front of him.

[1/2 Pivot Block ]

The clone slashed down at the boy and just as the sword moved toward him Akura violently snapped his forward leg, his left leg, to the right side, and then he shifted his right leg in the same direction, allowing him to move his body away from the clone and evade the clone, putting his body right in front of the clones. " I like this. " Akura commented lifting his right arm as he moved back, the clone's arm now resting under them, while the other arm was over it. He grabbed on to the clone's arm and tossed him over his shoulder, straining Akura's body due to how heavy it was. " Bad idea..." The young genin said rubbing his neck with his right hand, while holding the sword on the left hand.

The clone rolled on the ground just as he hit it, making the damage close to nothing just as he was there. He quickly got up and gripped his sword tightly. " Akura-dono, that was a cheap trick. The clone said slowly, and somewhat dumbly, but Akura just shrugged it off. " Life isn't fair." Was his only responce to the clone. Hearing him, the clone growled and ran at Akura once more, this time the blade on his side, both hands on the hilt. The boy found openings on the clone's movements, but for this next jutsu he should let the clone approach him, it was the only way to actually get it right. The clone swung it's blade at Akura, and the boy raised his, using a technique he had learned before, the basic block, to stop the in comming attack, which was the first step of this next technique.

[1/2 Forward Grind ]

The clone looked at Akura somewhat astonished at what had happened, but Akura just smirked. " Ready?" He asked mockingly at the clone, slowly sliding his sword toward his training partner, which was sadly a clone of himself. The clone tried to push upward, but Akura kept applying pressure downward with his sword, and more importantly closed the distance between himself and his clone, which was the entire point of the technique. "checkmate. " Akura said, and by that point his sword was at the stone hilt of the clone's sword, the two of them staring eye to eye.
