Musa Awaits Akiza's Arrival for Sword Training

[Akami]

hey musa what are your special abilities

 

[Musashibo]

Ok.

*I look at the training dummy from a far away distance. I grab my sword and tilt it to the right which then I proceed to throw it at the dummy. I then appear where my sword is going to hit and grab the handle and swing it with the momentum and my own power of the throw, arm, and direction at the dummy.*

hey musa what are your special abilities

If you are talking about KG or anything like that I don't have any. I'm all just normal ninja. All I got is a bag full of tools, knowledge of jutsu, and my katana named Tanryoku. What of it?

 

[Akami]

i was just checking if you have a kekkei genkai

 

[Musashibo]

My other bio does. He is a dual swordsman with the sharingan which akiza here helped me with. He is in my signature.

 

[Akiza]

Not bad, but now let me instruct you on how to do it.

Hold your sword (wooden) up in the blocking stance (aka horizontally).

 

[Musashibo]

(sorry I looked at the clock and rushed out of my apartment forgetting I had class today with a final. God college school semesters with holidays before hand ruin the timing. Anyways sorry again I was in such a hurry i forgot to vm or post on here.)

I grab my sword and position it as instructed waiting for the next set of instructions.

It's ok.

Throw your sword horizontally at the dummy now with as much strength you can muster.

 

[Musashibo]

I grip the hilt and aim for the dummy. I wind up and throw the sword horizontally as hard as I can.

 

[Akiza]

Alright, that's good. Now, while the sword is still in midair, nearing your opponent, appear behind him, grab your sword, and put it to his neck. Also, if your opponent is holding a sword, grab it by its hilt and smack it out of his hand.

That's a connect toss...throwing the sword and then grabbing it at the precise moment of attack gives you more power in attack than just swinging the sword. And it throws the opponent off guard.

 

[Musashibo]

Yes I understand it a lot more clearly.

I grab my sword and get into the connect toss stance to try it out. I wind up the sword and throw it horizontally. While the sword is in midair and distracting the opponent (dummy) I appear behind the dummy and grab the hilt of my sword striking at the neck of the dummy with great force it slices clean through.

Ah I see how this is such a great attack. It really does give you the upper hand.

 

[Akiza]

Alright then. The last thing I'll teach you is that spinning motion I used on you when we began. You ready?

 

[Musashibo]

Yes sensei! *As I take my sword ready to examine your motions and stance*

 

[Akiza]

It's quite simple, really, but for you not to get dizzy and stop where you want to stop, it takes practice. Put your sword away for now, That part comes later. The basic motion is to spin on one or both feet (after a while you get used to spinning on one foot) and control your spinning, so you shouldn't get dizzy, and then stop where u want to by placing your foot (or feet) down.

Watch.

*I balance myself on the tip of my left foot, and then with utmost focus, I spin on it and I don't get dizzy. After a few seconds of spinning, I place my foot down, and stop spinning at the direction that I wish to stop at.* See? Try it.

While I'm at it, you shouldn't trip yourself either when you stop spinning lol.

 

[Musashibo]

*puts sword away*

Ok sensei lets see if i don't make a fool out of myself.

*rememebers how you did the spin motion and I get ready. I try it with one foot spinning around and then after 1 and a half spins I fall down*

Argh... that is annoying

*gets up and dusts himself off for another try. I attempt to spin again on one foot at the tip this time after realizing you need to do it with the tip. I then spin a few times and stop my foot at where I wanna stop at but still I feel a bit dizzy.*

This is gunna take a bit to get used to.

 

[Akiza]

Why don't ya try it with 2 feet for the first couple of times, it's gonna be a bit slower than on one foot, but it's easier for a beginner like u.

 

[Musashibo]

Ok sensei.

*I take a breath and then attempt to spin with two feet this time and spin for 3 rotations without falling. After I want to stop I go down making my feet stop me in the direction I wanted* wow that was a lot better.

 

[Akiza]

perfect. now try going a bit faster...

 

[Musashibo]

*I take the stance, and start to spin. I spin 3 times and then stop at the direction I chose to stop at. I do it one more time with both feet still and attempt to do it faster. This time I do 4 spins in the same speed as 3 and then stop at the same spot.*

 

[Akiza]

*claps* now you may get your sword. Same thing, but this time you have to hold your sword outward, pointing straight forward, and spin. when you stop, you really dont want to fall down this time, cuz you may hurt yourself with the hilt or tip of your sword *ouch*

 

[Musashibo]

I unsheath my sword and hold it outwards. I begin spinning with the sword out and to just get the hang of it I spin only 2 times and stop at the mark.
