cry of the soul

"Well, I am a master of Kenjutsu, but if you like, I'd be happy to teach you" he said giving a warm smile

"Awesome, so what would I need?"She asked, ready to take a metal note of things she would need.

"Um..just a sword, and some comfy cloths to move in really" he said thinking

"I've one of those a home. I'll go and get it now. meet you back here is a few/"she said as she started to run to her house to get her sword. After a few minutes she has back at the lake with her sword in her hand.

Lelouch smiled, "Good" he said as he drew his katana, "I won't go easy, so be prepared" he said in a serious tone

She gripped the handle of the sword with both hands and nodded. She guessed he was going to make the first move, so she waited for that.

Lelouch smirk, as he rushed towards her, and unleashed a series of blows, but nothing she couldn't handle

Arisa quickly made a few steps to the back and left, she stumbled a bit but quickly caught her balance. She could feel the air from his swing hit her. She then lifted her sword up in a defensive position.

Lelu held back, he didn't want to hurt her, but she did need to know what combat feels like. He felt his blade stop as it her sword

When she felt the blade toughed her sword, she quickly pushed it back with hers. It was the first thing to come to her mind and she wondered if it was the right one.

Lelouch was forced to stepped back, "Good" he said as he held his sword in a defensive stance

Arisa was glade that she had done at least something right in this training session. Now she knew it was her turn to move, only she had no idea what to do now. she kept her feet apart at shoulder length as she made her move.

He watched closely, her form wasn't too bad, could do with work, but wanted her to attack, "Dong well so far, now attack" he said as he slid his foot back, ready to attack

What do I do? Do as just to a straight forward attack or go on an angle. She decided to go from an angle. she made her attack from the right and aimed at his sword.

Lelu blocked it easily, "Good, but you need to be devise in your attacks, if you hesitate you will die, try it again" he said, taking his stance

"But what if I hurt you? This thing isn't blunt." She said and that reminded her that her hunting knife was.

"I'll be fine, just attack" he ordered, "You can't be like this during battle, you will get killed"

She knew it was pointless to argue with him so she sighed from defeat and tried again. This time she aimed for the lower part of the sword near the handle.

Lelouch saw it coming, and blocked it, "Better, but you still lack drive" he said

"Well then teacher tell me what should I do?" she she asked she let do of the sword with her left hand and placed it on her hip.

"Well then student" he said coping her, "Your will is reflected in your blade, how people feel, act and even personalities can be seen in sword, you need to put as your personal feelings, and attack as if you were to kill me" he said putting his hand back on his katana, "Do you understand?" he asked softly

"Can we use wooden swords or something, just in case i somehow kill you." She knew wouldn't be able to do that but there was still a small chance that it could happen.

"Okay, if it would make you feel better" he said in defeat as he put his katana away, and got 2 wooden katanas, and tossed one to her, "Better?"

"Much,"She smiled, as she threw it in the air and caught it.

"Then bring it" he said with a smirk, as he spun it around his body, before stopping in his fighting stance
