Korin simply jumped up and over Freiz, running along his spine for two short steps then landing on the floor behind him again. "Come on, are you even trying?"
Freiz hit the ground, grumbling to himself.

Freiz stood up, sliding off his wristbands. "Let me take off my weights and then keep trying..." he said. Placing his wristbands on the ground, pulling his boots off and placing them next to the wristbands.

He pulled off his vest and dropped it with a loud thud on the ground, and then pulled off his sash and dropped it as well. "Whoo yeah, that feels better!" Freiz said, jumping up and down as he did. "Definitely!"

Turning back to Korin, Freiz clenched his fists. "Alright, hre goes again!" He dashed forward at the cat again, moving much faster now, but Korin was still faster and easily jumped aside, seemingly without effort.

Freiz continued his dash toward a wall and then jumped up, kicking off of it and using the extra momentum to dive headlong at Korin, moving like an arrow he kicked off so hard.

Korin actually opened his eyes in surprise at that one, seeing Freiz move so fast. He barely had time to dodge to the side and avoid being caught. "Heh, not bad. But it's about more than speed."

"So I see," Freiz said, repeating the same maneuver, jumping at and kicking off of another wall, gaining slightly more momentum as he sailed through the air at Korin, just a foot off the ground.

Korin jumped to the side again, and Freiz hit the ground on his chest, skidding along the smooth floor for several feet, almost sliding right off the edge of the tower.

"WHAA!" Freiz scrambled back from the edge on all fours, panting from the short glimpse he'd had of his imminent doom. "That was way too close..."

Rising back to his feet, Freiz turned to Korin again. "I see you're fast...but...how are you dodging everything so easily?" he questioned curiously.

"If I told you that, you'd be able to catch me that much easier. So i'll keep my secret," Korin would say as he jumped over another failttempt from Freiz to catch him.

"Yeah, yeah...keep your secret, then," Freiz said, springing back to his feet. "But that just means i'll have to try that much harder to catch you!"

Freiz dropped into a stance he could launch himself from at great speed and stood stock still for a moment, thinking to himself. "Hmm...can this cat read my thoughts or something...?"

"Well, it doesn't matter... I'll just dive at him head on and then trip him up when he dodges again...see how he likes that. Yeah, that's it!" He grinned under his mask as this plan formed.

And he launched himself at Korin, and the cat easily dodged aside, then used his staff to smack away Freiz's leg when he went to trip him up.

"AH-HA! You can read my thoughts, you sneaky little cat..." Freiz said, rolling to his feet as he landed. "That's how you dodge so easily!" He grinned under his mask.

Knowing that little fact would make catching this cat that much easier, but he would still have to get past Korin's seemingly ridiculous speed. "Alright then, here goes!"

Freiz dashed at Korin, his arms held back as if to reach out and grab him, but Korin jumped aside like Freiz had guessed he might, and so Freiz dove at him in mid jump.

Freiz barely missed Korin, whe jumped over him, using his spine as a stepping stool once again. "Heh...almost had you..." he said, getting back to his feet.

Freiz pulled his hands back, grinning under his mask as he gathered energy. "Just distract him with this...make a little noise so I can think properly..."

"Kamehame..." Freiz said slowly, the power building up in his hands. "Now...how to catch this fast ass cat... Hmm... He's too fast for normal tactics..."

"Ha!" Freiz shouted, launching the beam at Korin, knowing the cat would dodge it, which he did by a mile. The beam flew out into the distance and faded from sight.

"Okay, I have a plan now..." Freiz thought to himself. "Alright, Korin! Get ready to get caught!" he said confidently.
"I'm so sure," Korin said, scratching his chin.

"Yeah, keep seeming so confident if you want!" Freiz taunted. "Alright... I hope this works, I've never tried it before, but it should be easy enough..."

"You just gonna stand there?" Korin asks, tapping his staff on the ground.
"Nope!" Freiz says, his voice coming from behind Korin.

Korin's eyes widened in surprise when he felt a hand come down on his head and the image of Freiz he had been lookign at vanished. "The After Image... I should've guessed..."

"Well, that was fun!" Freiz said, taking the Sacred Water off of Korin's staff. "Alright, here goes!" He took a drink from the water and then...

"I don't feel any different..." Freiz said, blinking.
"That's because it's just ordinary tap water," Korin said.
"Who de wha?"

"But...you said it was Sacred Water...and i'd get stronger if I drank it..." Freiz said, a blank look on his face.
"And you did."

"Catching me was the real training. It helped you improve your reflexes, quick thinking, and predicting your opponent's moves," Korin said.
"Oh...that makes sense to Freiz!"
