"What's a good way to continue making improvements like these?" Nai asks. "There's alot of things you can do. However, you still have very far to go. There's some very effective ways of training on Earth, but you haven't demonstrated enough overall finesse to handle them. If you have any friends, I suggest you simply start off by sparring with them."
Nai nods. "That sounds like a good idea." Haven't seen anyone else yet... I guess I'll just have to look around.

"What are these ways of training?" Nai asks. "There's Master Roshi's training, and then there's Korin's training. When you think you've become strong enough, look for me again, and spar with me. I'll be able to tell you whether or not you're ready to get the most out of the training."
Humph... There was Shiro, and then there was that other guy with the tail. I should try my luck with them and see what happens.

As Nai turns around and begins to walk, the human offers one last word of advice,
"Don't be afraid of losing a fight, especially a sparring match. I can tell that cape you're wearing is actually weighted. I'm very impressed you refused to take it off. In a real battle, never hold back. But when you spar, never take that off, even if it means defeat." Nai could see the logic in this, but he wanted to really figure out what's going on. "Why is this?" he asks.

"It means you still have a long way to go. If you learn how to adapt to much more powerful fighters because you're being held back in your weighted state, imagine what will happen when you have to fight opponents much more powerful than you when you have your weights off?"
Nai smiles, really seeing the point now. "It's like I'm always fighting someone stronger than me, so when I have to fight someone that really is stronger than me, I'll be prepared."

"Exactly! Now good luck, Namekian. Come again when you feel like you have improved." Nai waves good bye to the human and walks out of the dojo. He's very content with his visit at the dojo today, he's learned alot. This is a lesson he never learned when he was on Namek. Always have your weights on so you'll always be prepared to fight a stronger opponent. I like this idea...

1.
Shiro entered the building and stretched a bit, taking a moment to look at the other fighters training. He hoped that one of the fighters might use an attack that he could use. Before long, he saw one that would work.

2.
The fighter he was watching had his hands over his head, with ki focused in his palm. The ki was gathering quickly and it didn't take long for a massive amount of the energy to be collected. At that point the fighter launched his attack, sending the ki at his opponent and quickly knocking him out.

With the battle over, Shiro walked over the the fighter, a large man easily a foot taller than himself and much broader. "Excuse me, but what was that attack you just used?"
"That was called the Masenko Ha. I assume you want to learn it?"

Shiro nods, "If you wouldn't mind teaching, of course."
The man puts his hand to his chin and looks Shiro over. "Well, you look rather strong, but I think I'll give you a test, just to see if you're worth it."

"Name your test." Was all Shiro said in reply.
The man smiled. "Good spirit. All I want is to fight you. Fine by you?"
Shiro smirked and entered his stance. "Just let me know when you want to start."

The fighter entered a stance of his own. "How about now." And with that he charged at Shiro, sending a fist towards his face. Shiro ducked and punched the taller man in his stomach, then in his jaw.

The fighter didn't even get to groan before the fist impacted his chin. As he tried to recover, Shiro crouched low and swept kicked the fighter, knocking him to the ground. To be nice, Shiro just stood there as the fighter got up.

Making her way from the outskirts of the city, Ava arrives at here at the huge complex. It would be pretty hard to miss, especially with the calamity of fighters here, along with the huge arch over the building.
Looking on from a distance, she looks over to the entrance....
"This must be the place he was talking about.... There seems to be monks and all here.... I'll just drop him off inside and be on my way...."
And with that, Ava enters inside with Rajah.

Tereya walked into the Dojo, looking around, watching fondly as fighters all around were training and practicing their moves, some by themselves, others sparring intensely, trying to increase their skills.
"Intense..."

Once inside, Ava sets Rajah down some place where hopefully no one would bother him as he slept. Off to the side, lying him down on a bench. Looking down at him, she sighs....
"I'm sorry..... Though you are a fighter yourself.... At least it would seem.... I will make it up to you someday.... We can fight another time to settle the score...."
Turning away from him, she begins walking out, but is cut off by a flamboyant monk....
"Hey sexy! I'd love to give you a few pointers if you're here to learn!"
Ava stops, looking at the monk perculiarly....
"Um.... What do you mean...? Are you telling me you can make me stronger...?"

The fighter stood and nodded at Shiro. "Ok, you pass. Geez, that hurt." Shiro just stood there, grinning, waiting for the fighter to recover enough to get to the teaching. "What's your name anyway, kid?"

Shiro blinked before realizing he hadn't introduced himself. "Oh, sorry. I'm Shiro. You?"
"Rashin." The fighter replied, breathing restored. "Well, are you ready to get to training, then?"

Shiro popped his knuckles as he replied. "Of course. Otherwise I would have drawn the fight out longer."
The fighter laughed at that. "Well then, let's get started."

1.)
The monk laughed...
"Of course I can! You seem to have a manifestation of Ki inside of you.... I can sense it... How would you like to learn the 'Solar Flare' technique?"
Ava smiled slightly, this monk was very amussing and she figured, 'why not'..... She wasn't doing anything else at the moment....
"Alright.... I'll bite.... What is this 'Solar Flare' you speak of? Is it a powerful technique?"

"You know how to gather ki, correct?" The fighter asked, as he led the two of them away from the sparring mats and over to an area for technique practice. To answer Shiro held up a hand and formed a small orb of his white ki before pulling it back. The fighter nodded, "Good, then we can skip that part. You wouldn't believe how many people ask to learn this skill when they can't even do that."

2.)
He laughs once again....
"Is it powerful?! Of course it is! It's all in the timing in how you use it!"
Ava's smile grew....
"Really....? How about a little demonstration then?"
Ava then assumed a fighter's stance....
"I won't waste my time with you if you can't hold your own...."

12.
The fighter stopped them before what looked like a very large, very battered concrete wall. "For starters I want you to show me how much quickly you can gather your ki."
Shiro nodded and held his hand out once more, and in a second another, larger sphere of energy was floating over his palm.

3.)
Folding his arms, he laughs hysterically at her, assuming she wasn't much of an fighter at all...
"Fine, but I'll go easy on you, cuz I wouldn't wanna mess up that pretty face of yours...."
Ava's smile just grew, growing more and more amused....
"Alright.... Whenever you're ready.... Just let me know..."

4.)
Unfolding his arms, he just lets his amrs fall to the sides....
"Alright, I'm ready! Show me what you-...HEY!!"
At that, Ava rushes in at him full speed, and aims to punch him in the face with a stiff, hard right jab. The monk is hit, surprised at her speed and ability, falling back and rubbing his nose....
"W-What?! Impossible! How did you move that fast?! Looks like I've underestimated you...."

13.
The fighter frowned slightly. "Can you gather more than that in that much time?"
Shiro shrugged, letting the ki return to his body. "I could try. Maybe if I use both hands..." He holds both hands out, one palm resting against the back of the other hand, and focused. Twice as much energy was focused into the orb this time, but the charge time was no longer than before.

5.)
Looking down at him, Ava's smile quickly fades away....
"I sure hope you're not wasting my time, monk..... Surely you're capable of more than this...."
He hops to his feet at that, taking his own stance now....
"Why you arrogant little.... I'll show you! You'll see the power of Solar Flare first hand!"

Rashin shook his head. "Still not enough. You need to be able to do this..." he turned to face the giant wall and brought his hands above his head. A ball of ki gathered in his hand as he shouted, "MASENKO HA!" and brought his hands forward, launching a beam of pale red energy at the wall.
Shiro observed all this silently.

6.)
Her smile returns, glad to see that the monk infact still had some fight left in him. It was strange, her thirst for battle continued to grow the more she was introduced to the whole notion....
"Glad to here it..."
She then rushes back in, aiming to once again get in close, and attack him physically. The monk back peddles away, firing a few small blasts of Ki at her to interupt her process...
"Haha! You see?! I'll show you why I'm the top monk here!"

15.
His attack finished, Rashin turned back around to face his student. "You should be able to have a sizeable amount of energy gathered in the time you finish saying the attacks name. Try again."
Shiro nodded and held his hands out once more. He closed his eyes this time, but didn't start to gather the energy quite yet.

16.
All of a sudden Shiro 'pushed' as much energy out of his body and into the area in front of him. He caught this energy as it escaped and shaped it into a perfect sphere; small, but very dense for what it was. He aimed this ball at the wall and opened a small hole in his control, allowing the energy to leak out in strong beam.
