-.-.-<3-.-.-

Sora woke up, but her surroundings were different. At first she panicked slightly, looking around to see if she recognized anything. She sighed when she say Ryo sipping on some tea.

"You gave me a heart attack. I though i had gotten kidnapped or died." Sora shook her head, stretching her arms. "So why am i here this time?"

"I do not know; i didn't bring you here this time." Ryo said, setting down his tea and looking up. "Ah, I suppose you have a while before you are going to wake up, so how about we train?"

"I guess, but im worried. What if I accidentally scare them and they think im dead?"

"That would not happen. As long as you are in my domain, you wont die unless you stay too long. If you were somewhere else, that would be a different story." Ryo chuckled, standing up. He started to walk away, Sora quickly getting up and following him to the training area. "Have you been practicing the 7th form?"

"Uh- yes! I just cant seem to actually use it. I know the hand and foot placement, but for some reason every time i swing the sword my form breaks and i slip."

"Ah, i see.." he hummed, the two of them arriving where they normally train together. "What you need to do is think. You need to think of whatever it is that you think you are doing wrong, and correct it."

"That makes no sense though!" Sora pouted, Ryo shaking his head as he handed her a sword.

"Just try doing it as normal first."

Sora nodded, gripping the sword correctly and standing in the right stance. She took a deep breath, concentrating.

Just before she was able to fully complete the slash, her foot slipped. She sighed, slouching her shoulders.

"That was good, now try and think. Think of every movement you just made, and pin point the mistake." Ryo said, and Sora nodded. She closed her eyes, imagining all the movements she just did.

She couldnt see the mistake, and as she was about to say something, Ryo flicked her forehead.

"Think harder." He said sternly, Sora sighing before closing her eyes again.

This time she thought about the joints instead of the muscles, and she could see it clearly now. Her left leg was bent slightly forward, when it was supposed to be straight.

"I see it now!" She cheered lightly, and Ryo nodded. He stepped back, and Sora picked up the sword and got back into stance.

She made sure her leg was straight before preforming the technique.

She executed it perfectly, and Ryo clapped with a smile on his face. She smiled, pumping her fist in victory.

"That was perfect. Your form was correct, and you held the sword at just the right angle. All you need to do is practice this at least a thousand more times, and it should be perfectly mastered!" Ryo said, and Sora slouched her shoulders. Even if she did just do the form perfectly, it took a lot of energy out of her. It was truly a powerful form.

"I wish i learned this a while ago! Then i wouldn't feel like an absolute idiot trying to figure it out years later." Sora pouted, and Ryo chuckled.
