17 Training Is Important! (1/2)
The sky can be seen far above the earth that was below with an almost bellowing color that signifies that of water and freedom, it was clear as a lake which can almost s.h.i.+ne with a new sparkle as if recently waxed and open because not a cloud could be found within its great vast and open area.
This scene was a usual occurrence on a small island where not ver many thing usually get done, here on this island laid the housing of a very minor amount of people.
In one particular household the day truly begins the second the sun rises over the ocean that extends out as far as the eye could see.
”Ruby Rose! Come out of the house this instant! It is only the second day of training and I will not stand for it if you do not train alongside Yang and I.” As I stood outside of the house calling to Ruby within I made sure to let her know of my intentions and that was to train.
After our touching moment from the night and the day after a week ago, I wanted her to join Yang and I in training for real rather than just watching.
The first day sort of went how most would expect, she was dead tired and collapsed at the end of it all.
Of course as her older brother I felt like c.r.a.p, but this was for her and I had to put my foot down.
Poking her head out of the window I spot a black and red haired figure, with a smile I waved her over to me ”Ruby, c'mon we gotta get to training soon!”
She responded in kind, by sticking out her tongue ”Mmnnnn-!” 'Gah!'
”Grrr~ Alright, if that is how you want to play then so be it!” I was not really known for my calm personality when it came to training and battle.
Without any reservations I decided to form several familiar hand seals, any Naruto fan would know of them ”Shadow Clone Jutsu!”
Hearing me shout, everybody turned their heads my way.
*POOF!*x2
Seeing a cloud of smoke suddenly appear Yang and Taiyang had not one clue as to what to make of it, why summon a cloud of smoke? And what is a Shadow Clone?
As the cloud of smoke cleared out came not one, not two, but three Darian's. All of which had their eyes set on Ruby who was awestruck by her brother's performance of making more of him appear.
”What the h.e.l.l? Just what kind of tricks does Darian have up his sleeve? First the force of gravity, then the healing and now creating clones of himself? I'm getting to old for this~!” Taiyang was left going through a sudden mid-moment crisis as he lacked the mind to wrap around the incident before him.
”Alright, you stay here and train in Chakra control. I can stand on top of boiling water at this point but it isn't enough. So think of something,”
”Mm, got it boss man. I guess I can try and work on the Rasengan, we did get some rubber balloons, and rubber bouncy b.a.l.l.s when Taiyang brought us toys from out in the city that one time. After that we could work with Chakra strings and then try to infuse Nature Energy into the Rasenga and finally we can try to walk on air with only the use of Chakra and not the flight of the True Vampire Bloodline.”
”Man, I completely forgot about the being a vampire thing and all that. Mmmm~. Alright then, go ahead and practice that way for the moment and we can move along together later.”
”Understood!” The first clone then went off to find the water balloons that were laid somewhere in the house.
While the first clone was given his task I look at the second one.
”You are going to help me with Ruby. She needs somebody to oversee her training while easing her into it unlike how Taiyang the c.r.a.ppy instructor over there was doing yesterday.”
”Of course, if he wants to rot away in a Hunter School then he can do that after he officially get his license. But for now he needs to learn that at first he has to be gentle and ease Ruby into training because not everyone is as crazy as you are at training.”
”First off, you mean US as we are one dumba.s.s and second we have to go and catch Ruby before we can get her to train! Now stop lolygagging and get a move on!!” The clone is just being a pain while he is here ain't he?
In the distance I hear Yangs voice ”Don'tcha mean Loli-gagging, eh~ Darian?”
”GAH! Yang! First off, where did you hear that from? And second, shut up! I don't mean that!” With a red face I was hooting at Yang for her insensitive joke.
While Yang and I were going at it, Taiyang was recalling an anime that mentioned the same joke he heard last week and began to sweat heavily.
---------------------------------------------------
”That went well, now did it not Darian?” Yang was squatting above me overhead as she looked at my exhausted and scrunched up face from above.
With a slightly choked up voice I spoke out to her ”Haa~ Alright, well you seemed to have found out a single flaw of my Shadow Clones. They send EVERY experience of theirs back to my head and so that is why I refuse to use them. Happy?” I wanted to appease her appet.i.te known as curiosity with this,
”Nope.” Didn't seem to work.
”Gaaahh~ Fine, they also are destroyed with a single solid blow. Now?” A little more information wouldn't hurt, so I decided to spit it out.
”Nope.” The 'Nope' really must run in the family huh?
There was absolutely nothing I wanted more than to get up at the moment, but I couldn't so I decided to just give in. ”If you are asking how much it hurt to get kick in the junk by Ruby through the clone, then the answer is that I felt every once of pain. Now help me up would you? I can't walk.” With a pleading face, I looked up at Yang.
”That was what I wanted to hear.” Though she was struggling to contain her laughter she relented and helped me to my feet and let me use her shoulder to lean on.
…
After I regained my bearing I stood in front of Ruby who was sitting on her legs on the dirty ground which I was forced to lay down upon after a serious blow dished out onto the clone. But now was not the time to force her but rather persuade her… Let's do this!
”Ruby, today you will be just doing Endurance training. But since I will admit that you did in fact get me earlier I will allow you a break once you have fallen from exhaustion. When that happens I will help you by providing strawberries and water with ten minutes to rest.”
”Mmmrgh~ Don't wanna.” Of course she wouldn't agree so easily, I was just making it a little easier on her. Though I refused to rid her of it completely.
”I know that you don't Ruby. I didn't want to do such things either. But have you seen me skip out on a day of training since I began? No, I always did my best and that is why I now have the chance to teach you a bit of what I know. h.e.l.l I'll even throw in a bit of the fighting style I stole from my Dad (Qrow) with the backup weapon of his I found in the shed.”
”… Hah~ Yes!” Seems even little kids had their own prides, she agreed when I basically showed off and said 'Well I work hard, you should to and since you don't want to then I'll use my own time to teach you. And if that doesn't work I'll just use your favorite fighter against you!'
Basically she knew how hard I'am working for her. It brings a tear to my eye!!
Or she truly wants to fight like Qrow does and I truly don't want to find out what motivates her more as my heart could shatter!
This thought ran rampant through my head for one reason, Qrow didn't save her and Yang, I'm the one who saved them and yet she still want to follow in the foot steps of Qrow!!
'WHY!!' Inside I was curled up into a ball while grasping my head and screaming.
Though on the outside I was rather normal. ”Glad to see that you have some spirit! That is only one step to becoming a great Huntress in the future Ruby! Just the first of countless many!” With a small push of motivation I can see that Ruby actually got ready for training in her head a bit.
Seems she has a natural talent when it comes to the things she loves.
Which was her uncle that ranked above me.
…
While thinking of the training regimen for Ruby I have decided that it would be best to have her start out with Endurance training and then move onto both Agility and Dexterity alongside balancing afterwords. With the first is to help her toughen up a bit for later training and the other two is to help he get ready for training in combat techniques.
It's also good to note that I have taken the liberty of teaching the girls in academics as well, though Taiyang does it far more often as he is older and is a teacher in training for the combat school Signal Academy. So I only step in when I have to correct him, I do have an entire library of books stuck inside of my skull now. Couldn't have do it without my Sharingan!
-------------------------------
Alright then, time to move onto my own training!
But first I wanna take look at everything that I need to check… I rarely ever check anything within the system after all.
