"Again!" A harsh tone was unusual to be heard at the crack of dawn in the small town, but the people were getting used to it. Poor Kyoshi had been under strict training ever since Suki had found her last year, and the training was only getting worse now. Every morning, once they saw the sun, the whole group would run up the mountain and back, then Suki would let the other girls go, whilst Kyoshi had to go through her stances and moves. It was tiring, but many of the old ladies of the village would often hand the girls home-made treats, so Kyoshi would have something to look up to for her training.
The younger girl, clad in the Kyoshi warrior armor, flipped over the dummy and sliced the head off, then returned to the normal stance, almost a salute. "Again!" Suki yelled, stuffing a cookie in her mouth to prompt Kyoshi that she would get one soon.
Her trainee nodded and continued throughout her routine, taking out nearly all of the dummies they had. "Aright, enough. We need some dummies for the other girls to practice on." Suki smiled, patting the spot beside her for her best friend to sit.
Kyoshi grinned and plopped down on the ground, reaching for a pastry immediately. She happily shoved it in her mouth and frowned when her master tied over the small bag. "What are you doing that for?" She asked, but it was muffled, and food was falling from her full mouth.
Suki giggled, but rose to her feet and extended a hand, "It's time for their training."
"Oh." Kyoshi nodded, taking the gril's hand and using it to pull herself up. She quickly swallowed the majority of the cookie that was in her mouth in one big gulp, which somewhat amazed Suki.
The two headed back to where they would both train the rest of their warriors, together.
