After a few days,Kenjiro had the entire training area put up with targets and everything.He had his own weapons pack with him and was ready to continue training.

After getting a note from her sensei, Zandra was off to the training grounds eagerly to start the training with weapons. Her current care-taker had told her to be careful with them, as they were very dangerous. Zandra found it funny that she worried so much about her. With her sword on her back and her weapon pack on her side, Zandra ran eagerly into the training grounds, smiling when she saw Kenjiro. "Hello sensei!"

((PASSED MY JAPANESE TEST TODAY!!!!))
"Hello Seito!"he said happily,seeing her coming.He saw she was fully ready for the day,including the sword he'd bought for her."Alright,"he said,getting up."We're going to need to stretch,"he told her,popping his back stretching himself.

(Congrats!)

Zandra nodded as he said that they needed to stretch. The only time she'd stretched before that was when she'd woken up, so she needed it. Stretching, she looked around at all the targets, trying to see where each one was. So it seemed that that was what they were doing first.

He noticed she saw the targets and smirked."Target practice first,"he said,knowing she already knew but saying anyway.After a few minutes of stretching he said they could stop."Let's start with the basic of all ninja tools,"he said,reaching into his weapons pack and pulling out a shuriken.

Zandra nodded and stopped when he said they'd stretched enough. She grinned when he said they'd be starting with shurikens first. She was best with those. She smiled and pulled out a few shurikens, holding them between her fingers. "Anything specific you want me to do, or am I just aiming for the targets?"

"Those three out in the open over there,"he said,pointing to three plan as day targets out in the open against three rocks."Aim as close to the center as you can for the first one,only hit the white ring for the second and hit the edge of the outer red ring for the third,alright?"he asked,wondering if she understood.

Zandra grinned. "You got it sensei." This would be cake for her. It was the kunai training she should have been more worried about. It wasn't that she wasn't good with them, she just wasn't as good with them as with shurikens. Aiming for a second, Zandra threw all three of the shuriken at once. She knew exactly how to hold them to get them to spread out to hit where she needed them to. The first shuriken hit dead center on the first target, the second shuriken, the second one, hit the white ring of the second one on the left side, and the third shuriken, hit on the very outer edge of the third target.

"Impressive,"he said,surprised she'd gotten it so easily.It looked as though she wouldn't need any shuriken training but just to be safe,he continued."Alright,now,can you hit a target out of the air?"he asked,holding up several targets.

Zandra smiled when he'd told her impressive. As he asked her if she could hit a target out of the air, she grinned. "No problem!"

"Okay,"he said."Get ready,"he told her as he readied himself to throw them up."And now,"he said and in one throw,he'd thrown three targets into the air.As they began to fall he told her to start."Hit them as many times as you can before they hit the ground."

Zandra took out more shurikens as he told her to get ready. When he said to start, she threw the shurikens at them, not one of them missing the target. On one target, she managed to hit it 6 times, on the other, 9 times, and on the other 7 times.

"Nice,"he said,smiling widely."22 shuriken in one throw,"he said,counting them as they fell."Alright,since you've obviously got those down,lets move to kunai,shall we?"he said,pulling out two of his own.

Zandra blinked when he said that they'd move onto kunai's next. She was a little nervous about this part, but nonetheless would do her best. Taking out a couple kunai, she looked at Kenjiro. "Alright sensei."

He walked a couple of paces away then stopped and turned."You see the target behind me?"he asked her."I want you to hit it....with me in the way,"he said.

Zandra blinked. "W..what?" How in the world am I supposed to do that! She tapped the kunai to her lip thoughtfully a few times. She had an idea, but she'd never tried it before, and if it turned out badly, her sensei might've ended up getting hit. But he was probably prepared for something like that anyways, so, why shouldn't she try it out? "Okay.." she said with a sigh. Taking one of the kunai, she threw it to the side of Kenjiro, then taking the other one, she threw it so it would just tip off the end of the first one. When it hit, the first kunai made a turn, and hit the target on a sharp angle. If she'd hit it any other way, it would've missed. Zandra gave a big sigh as she heard the kunai hit.

Kenjrio was surprised by this but even more surprised when....he had to quickly duck back,avoiding the kunai as it flew off somewhere.He watched it go before lookign at Zandra."That was.....interesting,"he said."That was a pretty good shot at that.I know what you were going for but the second kunai was off when it hit,"he explained.

Zandra bit her lip a little and nodded when he told her she'd hit the second kunai off. She definitely needed more practice with kunai's that was for sure. "Should I...try again?" She didn't really have any other ideas about how to do it, and hoped that he wouldn't say yes.

"No,let's just work on throwing kunai one at a time at a stationary target,"he said,wondering how he should approach this.He moved out of the way so she could see the target."Hit it.Anywhere on it will be fine,just hit it with three kunai."

Zandra nodded. She found kunai much harder to throw because with shuriken, you could allow it to spin. Zandra's problem was that she could hardly even keep the kunai straight when she threw it. Taking out three kunai, Zandra tried to throw them at the target. Only one of them hit, on the edge of the target. The other two had a slight side spin to them and the side of them hit the target rather than the point.

"Okay,"Kenjiro said,sighing."Well,we've found one weak point.You really are better with shuriken than kunai but I still have to teach you about this.If you ever run out of kunai,you're gonna need to know how to use it,"he explained."We need to start with aim.Go get those kunai,"he told her.

Biting her lip, Zandra looked down as she went to go pick up the kunai. She was a little distraught, but..she'd work through it. After picking up the kunai, she looked at Kenjiro.

Kenjrio could see she was distraught."Don't worry,"he assured her,"you'll get this,"he said."Alright,"he said,setting up a target on a nearby boulder."Just aim to hit the target and that will include the boulder.The closer you get to the target itself,the better,"he explained."Follow my movement and I'll show you how to throw it,"he said,pulling out a kunai himself.

Zandra gave a small smile as Kenjiro tried to reassure her. Hey, she couldn't be good at everything, right? But then again, she wasn't that good at chakra control either. The only thing she really had going for her was her speed and shurikens. Taking one of the kunai's in her hand, she looked at Kenjiro and nodded when he told her to follow his lead.

He nodded back and pulled his hand in front of his chest with the blade of the kunai,parallel to his forearm.He had it close but not touching either his chest or arm.He then turned himself slightly like he was winding up to throw something.
