With Drez's mother currently not at home and with his uncle, Calder to take care of him while she when back to her village. But with with out his sister, Val there Calder started to teach Drez all of the basics of being a ninja as Val was failing in that department, but Calder saw all the posablilities that Drez could do despite him being blind.
Setting up in the part some distance from where playground was but still in full view of most of the park, where he could throw some of his kundi. He marked the trees with is scent that he wanted to hit at different distances. To find out how accurate he could 'see' the given targets and started to practic keeping is tougne flicking almost costantly to make sure that no one would get hurt when throwing the Kundi.

The park was somewhere that Natalia had visited before--usually on days when Pod was too tired to do anything else. It worked out well. Pod would nap on one of the picnic tables, and Natalia would amuse herself with the playground equipment, or wander off on a little hike. Some of the equipment proved somewhat difficult to manage without legs, but she was beginning to get the hang of it.
The swings, for example, no longer gave her any trouble at all. Once seated, movement on the swings was driven by the arms. That, she could manage just fine. So today, while Pod napped on a picnic table, she was swinging lazily nearby, short tail curled up with the tip looped around one of the chains holding the swing so that it wouldn't drag on the ground.
From her perch, she had an excellent view of the surrounding area, and thus Drez did not long escape her notice. For the time, however, she remained where she was, watching his practice with a slightly haughty look in her eyes, almost as if she were inwardly mocking his attempts.

For the first few trys he defintly didn't hit his targets but missed them completly. A little miffed but all the targets at home were shorter distance. So he slithered around collecting the kundi and got ready to do it once more. Still missing, but the next one at least hit the tree that made him think to calm down and constrate.
With a small breeze cooling him off he smelt that there was another snake around, but he knew it wasn't Ter. As Ter would have said something by now and it made him wonder, but he deside he would throw a few more rounds first. Constrateing very carefully and isolateing his own scent on the trees closest to him and throwing one. In a matter of seconds hearing that he hit his target and smiled.

She knew, if he was at all a competant snake, he would have noticed her by now. Her scent was not a heavy one, but it did not need to be for a fellow snake to pick up. She could smell him. She had seen him first, of course, but she could smell him once she had focused in on the scent a bit more.
Natalia watched his antics for a bit longer before slowing her swing by dragging her tail along the ground, then slipped off the seat to the ground, bobbing slightly as her tail took on her weight, then weaving her way across the grass towards the boy throwing things at the tree. And here she paused, watching him from several feet away before finally speaking in what could possibly be described as a greeting. "What are you doing?"

A few more throws later he 'saw' that the other snake was comming over in his direction. He knew that he was beeing a little rude on not going to investgate when he first caught her scent. Throwing one more and sorta hitting his target when he heard that she was somewhat close.
"I'm practicing throwing Kundi. Where I can be like my mother," he answered and turned towards her and moved closer as well. "I'm Drez," he offered. "So were the swings fun?" He asked smiling as he had never had used them before. "Do you want to give a try?" Offered one of the kundi handle first where she could take it if she wanted to.
