17.)
Ava nods at that, looking on at the monk now with a smirk on her face....
"Of course I do.... I already seen the basis of it though.... What's it called?"

18.)
"It's called Psychic Halt.... With it, as you just seen, you can manipulate your ki, along with focusing your mind, to freeze and paralyze you foe for a short period. You of course can use it to get in close and do what you do best.... Just like this...."
At that, the monk held his right hand out to Ava and she instantly becomes frozen....
"Haha..... Just a quick demonstration....."

19.)
Ava grunts at this, trying her best t move, but to no avail.... While she couldn't move, she could still talk....
"Tch! You could have at least gave me some fore warning! Dammit..... This works pretty good.... Very good actually.... You're right, this will prove very useful...."

20.)
The monk began to laugh at that...
"Things can come unexpectedly in the battlefield! You gotta be-!!! Dammit!!"
Though as he gloated, the effects had worn off on Ava, and now she had her right hand held out to him, now freezing him. Bringing her hand down, she laughs.....
"You're right.... Haha.... I'll make sure to remember that...."

The monk grunts at that, looking on at Ava as he stood stiff as a board....
"H-Hey! You're so disrespectful to your master!" He smiles, "Though you are my star pupil.... Piece of cake right? Remember to stay focused in battle. Be mindful of you opponents every move. And don't forget about learning about the various techs here, and all around the universe."
Ava nods and smiles, walking over to the monk, and placing her right hand flat on his chest...
"I will... Thanks once again... Goodbye...."
She then pushes him over on his back, getting a good laugh out of it as he could do nothing about it. Which he just sighs to... And with that, Ava heads out of the dojo, hopping back on her Nimbus, and flying off....

9. Shiro jumped and looked at his old teacher. "Did I just-"
The teacher laughed. "No, no. I simply spoke to you telepathically."

10. "Wow, so many things I have to learn. Maybe I'm not ready to leave yet after all." Shiro said as he shook his head.
"Actually, there are many things can do now that you don't even know about. Telepathy, for instance."

11. Shiro looked up, and tried forcing his thoughts into his teacher's head. Really?
Yes, really. Not hard, is it?

12. The old man chuckled at Shiro's expression. "Why don't you try flying, as well?"
Shiro looked up and nodded. Like he did outside the city a couple days ago, he focused energy into his feet.

13. Shiro rose several feet off the ground. He was amazed by how much easier it was now than before. Flight and telepathy. What next?
Ki control

Shiro looked at the old man, slowly descending as he did. "Ki control?"
The man nodded and held up a hand. A beam fired from it, straight at Shiro's face, but the man bent it around before it touched him. "That."

15. Shiro watched as the man's beam curved and looped in mid air, before dissipating. Once it had he held up his own hand, aimed at the wall, and fired. He willed the ki to curve upward as it neared the wall, and it did. Soon, he too was looping and tying his ki in knots. "That could be really useful."

16. The old man nodded at Shiro's handiwork. "There, now it seems you're ready to learn this technique."
Shiro grinned and nodded back. "What's this attack called, anyway."

The man held up his hands, the finger tips touching and forming a triangular shape. "It is called the Tri Beam." And as Shiro watched, a small orb of ki formed in the space in the middle of the triangle.

18. Not ki, Shiro thought, Life en- wait. "Wait, are you sure you've got enough life energy left?"
The old man smiled, and fired the attack.

19. The beam, though small, easily tore through a six foot, reinforced concrete wall. However, the old man collapsed after using it. Shiro caught him before he could fall, however, and laid him down gently.

20. The old man chuckled a bit. "I'll live, don't worry. I just won't be able to do much for a day or so. I didn't put much energy into the attack. Anyway, it's your turn to try."
Shiro nodded and held his hands up like the old man. He gathered a little of his life energy into his hands and fired the beam. It too tore through the wall, and Shiro fell to his knees, surprised by how tiring the attack was.

Shiro looked at the old man, who by now was surrounded by medics. Reassured that he would be well taken care of, Shiro stood, a bit shaky, and walked out of the dojo. Well, I learned more than I thought I would. And they all seem useful, too.

As Shiro tried to leave the dojo, one of the fighters stopped him. "You know, you'd make a great martial arts teacher."
Shiro shook his head. "I'm too concerned with my own strength to help someone else."

The shrugged. "Well, then learn as you train. My teacher only began teaching people so he'd learn more himself. He said, 'Teaching is the greatest form of training; for every step your student takes, you take one beside them.'"
Shiro listened to the fighter's words and nodded. "Sounds right."

The fighter looked a bit excited as he continued. "Then why don't you try teaching someone? See how good you are at it."
Shiro shook his head again. "Sorry, but I just don't feel like it right now."

The fighter sulks. "Damnit, who else is going to teach me the Tri Beam attack."
Shiro turned and faced the fighter, frowning. "Have you asked the old man?"

Post by Shiro on May 28, 2009 14:07:05 GMT -5
The fighter, still sulking, nodded. "Yeah, but he said I'm not ready for it."
"Then you probably aren't."

The fighter glared at Shiro. "How can you say that? I've been training longer than you and he STILL won't teach it to me. I've been begging for his training for six years, and he won't do anything to help. But you, you just waltz in here and ask him, and he agrees. What the hell makes you so SPECIAL!?" The fighter leapt at Shiro, who stepped out of the way.

Shiro glared back at the fighter, but didn't get into a stance. The fighter noticed this and sneered. "Looking down on me, boy? Think you're better? You proud little-" He charged at Shiro again, sending a punch at Shiro's stomach. Shiro sidestepped, then leapt back, out of the man's way.

The man growled again, and after imaged next to Shiro. He swung a fist at Shiro's face, but his punch hit only air as Shiro, too, used an after image.

The fighter growled and looked up, apparently having sensed Shiro's ki from up there. Shiro was floating several feet above the man, his breathing ragged. I used too much energy in that training. Even this guy'll be a problem soon.

The older fighter pointed his left index finger at Shiro, firing a crimson beam from its tip. Shiro barely managed to get away, but his scarf got hit. A small fire started, which Shiro hastily put out. Fire beam?

The fightter snarled, then leapt up at Shiro, clawing at the air as if that would help. "GET DOWN HERE YOU COWARD! FIGHT ME LIKE A MAN!" Shiro sighed, ignoring the idiocy coming from the man's mouth, and remained floating.

The man, whom Shiro had started mentally calling Mutt, snarled again. He suddenly brought his hands to his sides, muttering, "KA..ME..HA..ME..." Shiro's eyes widened as he heard that. He wouldn't.
