Ilya[/u]
"Yes, keep going!" Ilya's voice floated in from outside the dojo, as the intensity of the shinai assault increased, bamboo weapons charging at Jasper.
While the assault went on inside the dojo, Ilya sat down and started wondering about how to make things more interesting. As it were, the whole thing was really very boring.
"If only sensei was here. She could have thought of something."

Jasper dashed forward, and rolled quickly to evade the torrent of weapons that seemed intent on pinning him to the floor. With a quick prediction of the future, Jasper rushed to the spot where the least weapons would fly at, then re-directed the 3 weapons that would come in his direction.
"Will this go on non-stop? How can i beat this stage?" Jasper shouted towards the direction of the floating voice of Ilya.

Ilya[/u]
"You beat it when I come up with a new idea for the training!"
Ilya's disembodied voice floated out as the weapons continued to fly at him. That was basically how the entire Dojo operated after all, every operation based on the whims of whoever happened to be in charge at the time.
To Ilya's credit however, she was busy searching for new tools somewhere in the shed right now. Even if Jasper could not know that.

Jasper was getting rather bored of doing things over and over again. Deflecting 5 more bamboo weapons, he ran about, desperately hoping something new would happen.

Outside, a strange rift appeared in the sky. A girl in a white, bloodstained yukata fell out.
And landed on somebody's clothesline. The sheer heat generated by the rift ignited a blood-red kimono.
When Samara woke up, she saw that her previous outfit had been replaced.
"... Red. It's fine, I guess."
She felt strangely diminished. She tried to remember why, but she couldn't. Frustrated, she screamed.
A whole chunk fell off the wall in front of her.
"... Oh."
She remembered that she could do things with sound. But nothing else.
"... I'll kill whoever did this."
Then, she saw the sign, "Tiger Dojo"
"... Train? Yeah, I should."
She opened the door to find someone already inside. There were bamboo weapons flying at him. One of them hit her, and it hurt.
"... Pain. Why do I feel pain?"
Small rivulets of blood ran down her face from her eyes, and the space around her darkened slightly.
She unleashed the full power of her screech, splintering most of the weapons in the room since they were made of bamboo, and easily destroyed.
A deranged smile appeared on her face, and she was grinning at the person inside in particular. She realised that it was HIS training that had caused this. She drew a knife she hadn't realised was there, and charged at him.
"... Have you ever been to hell? I'll show you what it's like..."

"Heyhey! What are you attacking me for! Don't you know the rules around here?" Jasper cried out. He'd never enjoyed un-strategised fighting anyway. He was already rather drained from the training, but he still defended himself, since he was already pretty pissed at the newcomer.
Jasper ripped the knife from the girl's hand and flicked it RIGHT into her FACE. (headshot O.o)
Jasper then looked a minute into the future to evade her future oncoming attacks (may not succeed, depends on situation)

I didn't think that my first task would be stopping two little kids fighting.
The floor erupted from beneath the fighting pair, the wooden planks falling in a neat pile beside the hole.
A single figure leapt out.
Kyouko caught the knife as it hovered precariously at a milimetre away from the girl's left eye.
60kmph to 0 in a single moment.
With her other hand she pushed the boy exactly one metre back away.
Koukyo was right.
This was control.
She felt like Hayate on the first day she'd arrived here.
She'd become much stronger since then.

"Wow thanks. I was hoping i wouldn't have to fight!" Jasper panted.
He was utterly drained.
"What happened to my training?"

Samara saw the knife stop. Then she saw the girl who stopped it. The space around her became bright again, and the blood stopped flowing from her eyes.
"... Thanks. Can I have my knife back?"
She took the knife from her without waiting for a response.
"... Your name? And his, please."
She gave the boy a dangerous look. He had nearly slammed a knife into her face. It wouldn't have been as bad as if she had been human, but it would still have hurt.

Jasper withered from the look the new girl shot at him. He hadn't meant to injure her severely but it was a spur(rrrr) of the moment thing.
Walking forward, he said,"Sorry. I'm Jasper. Whats your name?"

"... Samara."
Samara still didn't look too happy. But her rage had cooled down a bit. She placed her knife back in its sheath.
"... Who's in charge here?"

Kyouko sighed. It's been awhile since she came to the surface again.
"I guess you could say I'm in charge as of now. My name is Kyouko, and Koukyo the other half of the time."
She didn't like the previous look of rage on the girl at all- she was a dangerous one.
"What are you people here for?" she asked.
[OoC: I'll invent a story for where Kyouko went for the few months lol]

"I was training? When she interrupted. Wheres Ilya anyway?" Jasper replied.

Ilya[/u]
"Arararara~"
Ilya popped out from somewhere with a disappointed look. She had almost gotten a new idea when she was suddenly interrupted by the two new fighters. It was annoying, to say the least, but this presented new options for the training.
"I never said you people were allowed to fight each other in here! I swear, I should have Berserker in here at all times..."

"I'm sorry Ilya! But the girl scared me! Anyway, what're we gonna do now? Could we all train together?" Jasper asked, with a happy smile on his face.

"... How could I scare you?"
Samara wiped away a little blood that had trickled down from her eyes.
"... I'm okay training with you."

Ilya[/u]
"Eh...? Okay then, we'll have both of you train at the same time! And the best way to start things off is with a friendly spar!"
Ilya nodded and skipped out of the way, indicating that the two of them could start at any time. The two of them had no combat experience, as far as he could tell, and the Tiger Dojo was actually a place where people tended to go only after they had taken a few knocks. That made the training regime easy to decide, but since these two were fresh...
It was time for them to get their knocks, to know where they went wrong and what their weaknesses were.

After healing back to his full power capacity, Jasper decided to take the initiative. He charged directly at Samara, looking through the future.
"Here i come~!"

"... Time to fight."
Samara raised her knife. She knew her reaction speed was faster than Jasper, since Jasper WAS a mage. She feinted a forward thrust in front of Jasper, then swung her knife in a full circle around to the right, cutting the air to increase her range by 1 metre invisibly. She anticipated he would dodge to his right instinctively, since her attack came from his left.

"Huh! Underestimating me so quickly?"
Stopping her knife in its tracks, Jasper pointed the large (and very pointy/sharp) bamboo shard that he hid in his palm at her jugular, ready to stab or shoot it from melee range.
"I win this round, don't I?"

"... I don't need blood, remember? I'm already dead."
Samara simply let loose a loud shriek, at point-blank range. Even with his power, there was no way Jasper could move faster than the speed of sound, or stop sound itself. There was also no way that shard would survive the attack.

Jasper shot the shard of bamboo directly into samara's face before she even let lose the sound wave, then dropped flat onto the floor, before rolling away. This did not allow him to evade the force of the sound, but he managed to evade it somehow, thanks to some pre-warning.
"Hey, i didn't want to hurt you! We're only training anyway!"

[OoC: I didn't say I couldn't be hurt =.=]
"... Ouch."
Samara pulled the shard out of her face, looking disgusted. She decided there was no point fighting this guy if she was going to use up large amounts of her own energy doing it.
"... You win... This time. I suppose this IS just a friendly match."

"Thanks. Lets go for round 2 after resting? Ilya? Anything helpful?"
Jasper sat down and started to catch his breath and heal his energy.

"... *yawn*"
Samara felt sleepy. All the fighting must have exhausted her. She stretched out on the floor and went to sleep.
