 He awoke early, unable to get a restful night's sleep under the watch of the moon. Khazi stood up carefully, walking easily over Aruka and outside of the cave where Terra slept, gaurding. He awoke him, instructing him to keep watch on her during the day while he was out training Isis, though he left that much out. He didn't want the young ninfea, nor Aruka knowing what he was doing... Aruka wouldn't approve and Terra didn't know how to keep his mouth shut.
He jumped into the air, outstretching his wings as he sped towards the beach Isis slept at. He made it there in only a few seconds, and spotted her immediatly, heading down towards her sleeping form. Wings turning to the side at an angle, his left wing streaked down upon her without pain, but enough to wake her up. He circled back, yelling to her. "Lesson one:: you are to always be on your gaurd!" He folded his wings mid flight, landing near her, but the impact caused a sand shower to fly upon her. "You never know when or where an attack could happen." he informed her as he walked closer. "They need no reason, and seek no reason, instead simply attacking when they find the opportune moment. When you sleep, your ears will remain vigilant, when you eat, your eyes will be forever watching, when you fly, all of your instincts must be at their keenest. Remember, many of your enemies have much more frightening abilities that you and I could never dream of."

 Isis awoke with a jolt and a scramble to get to her paws after hearing Khazi yell. She acknowledged his remark to always be on guard and nodded in understanding. She stood up tall and folded her wings to her side. She closed her eyes tight to shield them from the sand that showered upon her. Trying to remain in a soldier like posture, she lifted her head up and shook her body off. Sand got in her eyes, but she tried her best to hide the stinging, though her eyes twitched without warning.
She didn't honestly know how she was going to learn what her enemies have been born into. What was she getting into? I can't and won't turn back now. Isis took in everything that Khazi said and she burned it into her memory. "I have to work on my instincts because I've never really used them," she mumbled to herself. Did she even have a chance if she were put in front of a foe? Would she lay down and die just as her parents have? No! No I will not give in as quickly as they did! I will not! Isis used this anger towards her advantage and filled herself up with all of its energy, "I understand Khazi."

Khazi grinned quite evilly and nodded, before moving closer, slashing at her right paw with his teeth, though she jumped back looking quite shocked. "Your instincts are not enough Isis." he told her, as he circled her as if she were his prey. "And you have none. You've been told you don't need those instincts, they are useless. You've been told never to fight, but now you must learn. And now you've got to practice. Fight me!" he yelled, as he jumped at her again, this time opening his wings and using them and his speed to slash at her with his claws when she would least expect it.

The pain in her right paw caused her to shake slightly. Isis opened her own wings to balance herself out and she stood up on her hind legs and extended her claws, fire burning in her eyes. Fire of determination, and a tad flicker of fear. She slashed at Khazi, but his speed was too much for her and she missed completely. Isis was covered in cuts at this point but she kicked off the ground, took to the air right above Khazi and then dive bombed a head-butt into his back. She smiled in satisfaction as she bolted off and slid to a stop a few feet away from him. She looked down and she was covered in her own blood, and all she managed to do was head-butt him once. Boy, she was more pathetic than she thought.

Khazi fell halfway to the ground, though he stopped himself with a flap of his wings. He smiled and looked at her. "You have crappy aim, and you're letting me take far too much advantage of you. You need confidence in what you have, and you have power. Now use it!" He flew at her again, his mouth open and his teeth aimed for her flank.

She just barely was able to see the set of teeth that were flying at her. "I can't help the fact that I don't have confidence in something I've never done before!" she snapped back. His speed compared to that of a rocket, jetting towards her, if she hadn't have been watching him, he could have killed her just then, at least she thought so. She stood up, balancing again with her wings extended. She crossed her paws in front of her as to stop him from actually making impact but when he got close enough, she smirked, and attempted a slash on his right shoulder with her uninjured paw.

Khazi turned upwards at the last moment, though her claws caught his shoulder and he began bleeding a bit. "Good!" he called down, touching his shoulder with his left paw. "Time for flight school!" he called down and he watched her take to the air. "Remember, it can be an advantage or a curse to be in the skies. You can fall and die if you're knocked unconcious, but the wingless creatures cannot follow here." He flew up a bit, dive bombing down upon Isis between her wings.

Isis smiled and nodded her head happily, finally able to say that she fought back. Her expression turned serious as soon as she saw Khazi's movement coming towards her. She flapped her wings in an attempt to dodge him but failed and he connected onto her back. She howled in pain, her focus was lost, and she lost a few feet of air. Spreading her wings to the fullest extent she darted back up towards him. When she got close she curled up her body, did a small flip, and folded her wings in for a split second attempting to kick him with her hind legs from underneath.

Khazi smiled and darted to the side, swiping instead at her shoulder. He didn't notice whether he actually hit her or not, instead barrelrolling himself back towards earth, through the trees and into the jungle. At the last moment, he opened his wings, the leather catching the air and keeping him up just before he landed. "Let's see how she fairs in the cover of the jungle where your eyes play tricks on you..." he muttered with a smirk.

Isis was, in fact, hit by Khazi's blow to her shoulder. She cringed in pain but kept her flight in check. She knew that Khazi would have an advantage because he was so dark in color and she would stick out in the midsts of the jungle. Still, she knew what she gotten herself into, and she took the time flying down into the jungle to heal some of the wounds inflicted by Khazi. She hesitated for just a moment, pondering what he was up to, but she kept on going, trying her best to follow him.

Khazi watched Isis float down into the depths of the jungle, waiting cautiously in his hiding spot. He came out with a smirk on his face. "Hello Isis." He used his great speed ability to shift away from that spot, and suddenly he was behind her, greeting her again as if he were another. "Yes, hello Isis." He moved again, now at her right side, he strayed into a patch of light that filtered through the jungle canopy. He flashed a twisted smile, greeting her again. "Hello Isis."

Isis looked at all the Khazis that were surrounding her, and she got scared. Come on, think. He's got to slow down sometime, but how will you be able to get him to slow down yourself? Come on! THINK! His speed ability was far too great for anything that she could think of. She knew that she had to corner him, only she didn't quite know how. There had to be a window somewhere. She decided to attempt a spinning kick at the Khazi 3 on her right side, hoping that the real Khazi would get stunned for a moment so she could point him out.

Khazi returned to his original point with a chuckle as he shook his head. "My, my, aren't we fiesty today?" He grinned and moved again, just near her where she had attacked him previously, and he slashed at her paw. He moved again, back to his first point. "Get creative here Isis. Do something." His face was stern again, she had to figure this out on her own and she had to think on her feet. He moved again, into a tree that hung a few feet overhead. "Get me Isis!" he commanded.

Isis flipped in mid-air and dodged his slash. Creative? How can you really be creative while fighting? What more is there? She looked up to Khazi and smirked. With speed that she didn't even know she had, she climbed up the tree, spinning around the trunk with help from her wings. She looked like just a ribbon going around the tree with the speed she was using. Isis landed very delicately on the branch, ever so quietly. She was now behind Khazi, "Hello Khazi." She smirked as she lunged for him and tried to tackle him to slam him into the ground.

Khazi snorted and moved, hovering ahead of her. "Hello Isis." He chuckled and shook his head, looking at the ground. "You don't have the kind of speed you need to beat me. Speed is my ability. You need to use your strengths, not mine. You're strong, and when you really try, you can be stealthy, though you still need to work on that. Play on your strengths like I do." With that he flew again, this time landing on a branch nearby, though he was blocked from her sight by the tall trunk the tree had. He figured she probably hadn't even seen him move, but she could find him if she just tried.
