1. Blaze arrived at Korin Camp from Hercule City dojo. He noticed he had been here before when he once jumped off and landed in a hospital. Seeing the large pole he decides he might as well climb and actually check the place out.

2. Blaze noticed Shiro and some random woman off to the side, he chose not to interrupt. "No one likes a cock block" he thought as he began his ascent up the tower towards the high reaching heavens. "I should do this as fast as possible." he thought to himself

She inhales slowly, closing her eyes, and then exhales slowly....
"You're right.... I just need to calm down...." "Pfft.... You need to suck it up! And do what needs to be done!"
Her eyes shoot back open at that, a scared expression on her face as he eyes continue to glow....
"N-No... Be quiet!!"
The energy grows in her hand now, and she fires another blast... It almost reaches the tower, but fades within 5 feet of it...

3. Blaze is scurrying up the tower at decent speed. As he looks down at the two he saw earlier they are but small dots. He figured they probably didn't even notice him with the speed he showed up and began climbing the tower.

4. Blaze can finally make out the top in the distance. He knows he still has a long ways to go and decides to break for just a moment. Even though he is a few hundred feet in the air he feels somewhat at home this high in the air.

5. Beginning his ascent once more, Blaze finds that climbing the tower gets even harder as he climbs higher. This does not detour him from his goal but rather makes him all the more determined to reach the top of the tower, especially considering he had been there once before.

6. FINALLY!!! thought Blaze as he reached the top of the tower. He didn't know it would take him that long to climb this tower, although he was confused at how it managed to stay up structurally he didn't care enough to delve into it.

Shiro noticed the fear in Ava's eyes when she opened them again, and when she started talking to someone who wasn't there, knew that the voice she had mentioned earlier was talking to her. "Ignore it, Ava. It can't do anything to you except talk a lot. Think of it as nothing more than a headache that talks."

"You need me Ava.... Don't you ever forget that! I'm what makes you strong! You want to fire ki bolts?! Then accept me Ava!"[/i]
"Ahhh! N-No...! Just let me do it....! I can do it!"
She looks over to Shiro at that...
"A-Alright... Just a headache..."
Holding her hand out once more, she fires yet another blast... This time....SUCCESS! Well, it didn't hit the mark like Shiro's, but it did make it all the way this time, veering to the left a bit, and grazing the pole before fading away....

Shiro applauds as he watches the ki blast fly. "Excellent. You're getting it. Now try shooting a few in succession, like this." He held his hand up and pointed it once more at the tower. Three balls of ki flew out of his palm with only a split second between them, and each hit its mark.

"How long do you really think you can last without me?! This fool can't help you! Only by you accepting me will you gain the power you seek!"[/i]
Ava winces as the voice speaks to her, it ACTUALLY was a headache with a voice.... Especially with her trying to ignore it...
"A-Alright...."
Holding her palm out, she manages to throw 3 like Shiro, though the fade away about halfway to the tower....

Shiro nodded. "That was good, that was really good. You're a natural at this. All you need is a bit more practice an you'll have it."

Ava smiles at Shiro, he eyes beginning to lose their glow. Her head still pounded however, but she was managing to ignore as he had said....
"Thank you, Shiro. I'll try it until I get it right."
Yet again she fires several bolts of ki. They make it a little further, but still don't reach the tower....

Shiro grinned at her. "That's the spirit. Just keep at it, and don't pay any attention to that voice in your head."

10.)
She nods, firing more blasts of ki... They once again fade away, and Ava falls to her knees, breathing heavily.... She still hadn't recovered her stamina from the earlier 2 fights she had that day, and this new training of ki manipulation was wearing on her a bit....
"A-Ah.... S-Sorry.... I need to catch my breath..."

Shiro starts to stand when Ava falls, only to bend his ankle wrong, causing him to hiss in pain. So instead he sits there, unable to do much. "No, it's my fault. I've been pushing you too much."

11.)
On her hand and knees she looks over to Shiro and smiles faintly. Fatigue was apparent in her face and of course, her body posture, the she didn't want to admit to it....
"N-No.... It's not your fault... I'm being weak.... I need to push myself.... I should be able to do this..."

Shiro shook his head, a small smile on his face. Well, she isn't stubborn at all is she. "If you're sure you're not too tired, then go ahead. I won't stop you."

12.)
Getting to her feet again, she nods to Shiro, turning back to face the tower, and holding her right palm out to it.... Determination in her eyes and facial expression, she begins gathering her ki, and fires 3 burst of ki once again. They all find there mark this time, just as Shiro had done.
She smiles, falling back to her knees.....
"Y-Yes....! I.....finally did it....!"

"Very good. See how much you've improved? And it's only been a few minutes." Shiro said, once he watched the three ki blasts hit the tower. "Take a breather for now, I want to teach you something else."

13.)
Sitting back for a moment now, catching her breath, she looks over to Shiro....
"Yeah... I finally get the hang of it now... It doesn't feel odd anymore.... It's just the fatigue setting in from not resting, and fighting twice in one day. And doing all this travelling..." She laughs at that, now gaining a quizzical look, "Huh? Something else....? Like what?"

Shiro smirked and raised both hands above his head and held them together, a small orb forming in the center of his palms. "It's called the Masenko Ha. It's pretty powerful, but it's mostly speed that makes it strong." As he spoke, the orb in his palm grew and when he was ready he swung his arms forward, shooting a strong beam of ki at the tower. Oddly enough, there's not so much as a scratch on it from the attack.

14.)
Ava's eyes widened in surprise at this technique....
"Wow! You were able to concentrate your ki to fire a wave out! Oh! I remember now! That was the attack you used to make me break my hold on you!"
She gets to her feet now, very excited to learn this new technique...
"Um.... So, I just go like this...."
She imitates his actions, putting her hands above her head in the same fashion as he did.

Shiro nodded. "Yeah, basically. Except that it gathers a lot of energy together in a very short time, since you're charging with two hands at once."

"Yeah, I see... Alright then...."
Closing her eyes now, she begins to focus her ki into the palms of her hands as he did. Slowly, a small crimson orb began to form. Opening her eyes, she looks up....
"Oh wow! It's really working! I managed to actually concentrate it into orb form!"

Shiro said nothing this time, only nodded in approval. He waited to see what would happen when she fired the attack, as that would be the real test.

"Alright....! Here goes....!"
Looking ahead to her target, she brings her hands down and thrusts them forward at the tower. The orb explodes, now taking the form of an crimson beam of energy. It flies out toward the tower, but fades away a few meters before colliding with it. Ava brings her hands down and pouts...
"Ah man...... It didn't work..."

Post by Shiro on May 17, 2009 19:11:30 GMT -5
Shiro noticed the pout and tried cheering Ava up. "Well, that's what happened the first time you tried the other tricks, right? Just try again and see if it works this time."

Looking over to Shiro, she smiles and nods....
"Yeah, you're right. Just got to give it another try... Alright then..."
Bringing her hands back up, she closes her eyes, and begins focusing her ki yet again.

Once more Shiro simply watches Ava practice. She's a quick study, so she should get it in the next couple of tries.
