AN: Okay so I managed to pick myself up and draw how the trio look like while there in the KNY universe. It's creepy, but I don't normally draw humans, much less in the anime art style. I'm used to drawing ponies and flowers. But I did my best. At least now it'll be easier for you to imagine the story.

"Ugh I can't believe we had to wake up so early. I'm still sleepy." Dash rubs her eyes as she lazily follows her friends. "First day of training! Isn't this exciting!?!" Pinkie happily jumps around and raps her arms around her two best friends before giggling with joy. Fluttershy watches the wildlife around her, breathing in the fresh air.

"Alright, we've made it to the top of the mountain. I've seen some retired demon slayers use this technique to teach their students, so I decided to use it to. Your goal is to make it to the bottom of the mountain before lunchtime. But beware because it wont be as easy as it seem."

Haru then leaves the trio to fend for themselves. Unbeknownst to the three, Hana was hiding in a tree, observing them and trying to figure out what there strengths were. "It can't be to hard right? I mean this is just our first training day," Fluttershy says.

"Only one way to find." Dash begins to head down the mountain. "I wonder what he meant by 'it won't be as easy as it seems'. I mean what's so difficult about walking back down a mountain?"

Right at that moment she pushes forward a string on the ground, causing a boulder to fly right at her. "What the-". Moving quickly, Dash throws herself out of the way. "Are you okay Dash?" Fluttershy says in a panic.

"I'm fine, at least now we know what Haru meant with that warning." Dash huffs a bit.

"What do we do now?" Fluttershy asks.

"We have no choice but to try and avoid the traps. It's like a game, how fun!" Pinkie responds, clapping her hands together.

"I say we should have a race. Last one back down the mountain is a rotten egg!" Dash starts to run as Pinkie follows along. Fluttershy takes a deep breath, you can do this, nows not the time to be shaking.

Dash begins to quickly pick up speed, her legs moving her at an inhuman pace. The traps didn't hit her because she ran by them before they could hit. Pinkie also showed no signs of to much trouble. It was as it she could sense the traps before they hit her.

Fluttershy was moving a tad slower than the other two, but was doing fine on her own. She observed her surroundings as she moved. Although she had fallen victim to a few traps, she was able to avoid getting hurt.

Soon they made it down the mountain. "Haha I win!" Dash gleefully says, while punching the air. Haru was waiting for them, "Wow that was pretty fast considering this was your first time. Let's wait for my sister."

"Your sister? What do mean?" Fluttershy asks.

"Oh you didn't realize that Hana was watching us? I noticed when I was halfway down the mountain," Pinkie says.

Haru stares at her in shock, "How...?"

"Just a hunch," Pinkie shrugs.

Hana appears soon, the expression on her face was one of pure amazement. "Let's go, I'll make lunch." As they begin to walk back home, Haru approaches his sister. "What did you find out?"

"They are amazing. Dash has inhuman speed, Pinkie has some sort of sixth sense that seems to tell her when something is about to hit, and Fluttershy has really good observation skills. The way they move... it's as if they've done stuff like this before."

"Hmmm, quite an impressive group of young ladies."

"Indeed, Haru I think you should make there training harder. They seem like fast learners, and definitely have the skills."

They make it back home and Hana begins to prepare lunch. "Hana says you three did very well and that I should move on to more difficult training. I'm telling you this so you can be prepared."

"Will we continue training after lunch?" Dash asks.

"Yes, I plan on teaching you three swordsmanship in the mornings, and breathing in the afternoons."

"Breathing? But we're breathing fine right now." Fluttershy says.

"Yeah, but I'm talking about a form of breathing that strengthens you and raises your stamina."

Pinkie beams, "Really? I can't wait!"

Hana comes over to the table and starts placing down everyone's food, "Eat up! Can't train with a empty stomach."

After eating they had to wait for about an hour before they went back outside to continue training. "I want to show you how your form of breathing can be of great help."

Haru looks over at Hana and gives her a nod. Hana then proceeds to kick Haru in the stomach. Fluttershy yelps at the sudden aggression. The trio look over at Haru, he looked okay. "Woah," Dash breathes out.

"Yep, that's what I will now be teaching you to do."

•Time Skip- 5 months•

It was early morning, and the trio were practicing there swordfighting with one another. Using wooden swords of course, to keep from accidentally hurting each other.

Haru comes out of the house and walks over to the trio, "You have been doing very well in your training, I think it's time for you to choose the right breathing technique for battle."

He looks over at Dash,"My sister would like to see you first." Dash puts down her wooden sword and runs over to the home. Once inside, Hana pats to a seat on the floor next to her, Dash sits down on her assigned seat.

"Alright, so after seeing your amazing speed, the two breathing techniques that came to mind are thunder breathing and mist breathing. However thunder breathing will be difficult to use without a former user of thunder breathing teaching you. It's not impossible, but still tricky."

Hana continues talking,"You know I've actually made a breathing style that relies on speed. I call it weather breathing. It's a derivativation of thunder breathing. If you want, you can use it. I think it'll suit you. So what breathing will you choose?"

Dash thinks for a little, "I'll do weather breathing." Hana smiles and calls for Pinkie next.

"Okay Pinkie, so I tried looking for a breathing style that uses spacial awareness but I couldn't find any. Our only option is to make you a custom breathing technique. Is that alright?"

"That's fine. I actually already have an idea for a breathing style! I found one your books on breathing styles and thought it would be fun to make one inspired by wind breathing," Pinkie excitedly says.

"Really? What's the name of your technique?"

"Laughter breathing!"

What a weird name, well I've heard weirder. Pinkie pulls out a notebook, "I've already written down the information for laughter breathing. You can study it and make any necessary changes."

"I see, thank you Pinkie. Go ahead and call Fluttershy for me."

Once Fluttershy was seated, Hana begins to talk. "For you Fluttershy, I was thinking nature breathing. This was the breathing style my mother used when she was a demon slayer. She, just like you, was very good at observing her surroundings. Will this be okay with you?"

Fluttershy really liked the name of the breathing style, so of course her answer was, "Yes."
