Chapter 10
Urahara and Yoruichi sat in a room of 12 Grimmauld Place. The room was really big and spacious that could fit at least two African Elephants in it. It was nearly empty except for the bean bags, wardrobes, tables and cabinets in the room. Yoruichi let out a yawn and started chomping on her biscuit. Soi Fon had went to grabbed their equipments while the rest had yet to arrive.
Using the lack of people in the room as an opportunity, Yoruichi asked, "What's on your mind, Kisuke?"
Urahara nearly chocked on his biscuit. Sure he knew that the woman beside her was intelligent but he never really did expect her to find out so fast. Taking a deep breath, he replied with the fan covering half of his face. "What are you talking about?"
Yoruichi scowled. "You know what I'm talking about. And you better tell me the truth. I know you well, Kisuke."
While his eyes was gazing at his friend, his mind was racing to find a perfect lie to the cat/woman. After a few seconds of thinking, he gave up. It was impossible to lie to his childhood friend. She was already too smart and knew too much about him. "Its about Aizen. We gained some information about him. About he releasing his ShiKai on the wizards and witches of the Ministry of Magic."
"Releasing his ShiKai?" Yorucihi repeated, "So they're under a full Hypnotism?"
"Yep."
Yoruichi frowned deeper into her biscuit. She understood the predicament they were in. For one if Urahara and the others told the Central 46 or any loyal Shinigamis of Soul Society's rule, the whole wizarding Society might be in danger. After all, to them, all players acting in part of the plan of Aizen Sousuke and Lord Voldemort would all have to be executed. And by doing so, they would lose a great ally. However, if the fact of Aizen Sousuke is not known by Soul Society, not only would they have a war against Aizen and Voldemort, they would also have a whole Ministry on their heels. And against all of that was only a few number of Wizards and Witches and the seven of them. It would be pretty stupid to go against them.
There was silence in the room as the two sat on the bean bag, thinking deeply. Finally, it was broken by Yoruichi, who asked, "So now we know about the situation. But what do we do now?"
Urahara answered slowly as if picking his words carefully. "I am not sure. I am thinking of a plan now but it will take some time. However, I think its best of we hide this situation from Sou-Taichou and the rest of Soul Society. And that includes Soi Fon."
Great. The few Witches and Wizards and seven Shinigamis had just been reduced to few Witches and Wizards and six Shinigamis. Not just any Shinigami but a Captain of the second unit and head of Onmitsukido at that.
Urahara continued. "However, we still know a few number of people that we can trust. Like, Inoue-san or Madarame-san."
That lifted Yoruichi's heart a teeny little bit.
"But, I suspect that Soul Society would be keeping an eye for anyone who would be going against their orders. And that excludes most of the people we know."
Wow. Fantastic Soul Society! What a way to foil all our hopes and plans. Yoruchi thought.
"How about the Visoreds?"
"No can do. You know them, Yoruichi-san. They would never help Soul Society lest they someone do something they don't like and they coincidentally become allies."
"We're screwed."
"Your point exactly."
20 minutes later
"Yoruichi-sama. I've got the equipments!" Soi Fon said and bowed down to her ex-mentor.
"Thank you, Soi Fon. And how about you Harry? Gathered anyone who wants to join?" Yoruichi said the large group of people in front of her.
"Um... Yeah..." came the boy's reply.
There was a few who decided to come : Ginny, Fred, George, Ron, Hermione, Harry, The undercover wizards and witches and Tonks.
"Good. Now this lesson is just a so called "Preview" to what you'll learn in school. First, we start with something we call Hakuda. Basically, its just hand-to-hand combat fighting. This Hakuda is a really excessive work-out as you need to use every part of your body to attack or defend. And thus, we need to increase your stamina, flexibility, power and speed. Now, touch your toes with your palm for five minutes. And do not come up unless I say so." Yoruichi said.
Reluctantly, the witches and wizards sat on the floor and stretched forward. Soi Fon and Yoruichi went to walk around, telling them about their mistakes. However out of those group of people, only the undercover agents (due to experience) and Ginny (Whose muscles are not that developed) could do it with ease.
Harry felt his muscles tearing apart. It was barely two minutes and Harry felt like sitting up. His gaze wandered to his friends. Fred, George and Ron was having so much trouble that sweat could be seen glistening on their foreheads. Their faces red from the effort and yet their arms was far from their toes. He then turned to look at Hermione, Tonks and Ginny. While Ginny was doing it perfectly and effortlessly, Hermione and Tonks was not much of a difference. Harry just supposed that it was some girls' natural ability. And he turned to stare at Toushiro and the rest and his eyes nearly popped. They were doing it while having a conversation filled with laughter. There was no sweat, no pantings, no red faces and completely no signs of over-exertion of force. Were they naturally made of rubber?
One minute past and Harry could not stand the pain anymore. He sat back up, massaging his thigh's muscles. Suddenly, a leg appeared pushing him back down forward. Harry groaned from the sudden pain. "Yoruichi-sama told you, don't come back up until she told you so." Soi Fon reprimanded.
And finally, five minutes of total torture had past. Yoruichi told them to stand back and they wobbled back to a standing position.
"Well done for some of you as this is your first time. However, you still have lots more work to do. Now, we shall do some squats. Keep doing it for 20 of 8 counts." Yoruichi ordered.
There was a few loud groans as Yoruichi started counting. They let gravity work and pull their bodies down to a squat and used some energy to stand back up. When Yoruichi was at the 9th of 8 counts, their legs was starting to feel sore. And so, they were beginning to slack. Seeing this Yoruichi said, "Do not give up to your tiredness. This is a useful workout. It helps to built some of your legs muscles. And the longer you do it without stopping, the more stamina you will get."
When the squats ended, they went to do sit ups. INDIVIDUALLY. There was no person to hold their feet in place. Yoruichi said that it would help to built one's stomach muscles.
Ron grunted as he finished his 23rd sit up when he collapsed to the floor beneath them. He turned to Harry and said, "I better attract some hot girls with my soon-to-be six packs. If not, then this will be a waste of time." Harry nodded his head in agreement and said, " And I better beable to beat up Dudley once I get back home."
They kept doing it for 40 sit ups. When Yoruichi said to stop, everyone obeyed with little complain and sat on the floor, panting.
Yoruichi clapped. "Good, good. Now stand up. And please hand me the weights, Soi Fon."
The petite lady followed her orders immediately and rushed to the box and pulled out some blue leg straps and handed it to the violet haired lady.
"Thank you, Soi Fon. Now, I would like to train your speed. Tie this to your ankles. This are ankle weights. Once you overcome the extra weights by gaining some muscles, you become faster. The more lead weights you put on, the stronger you get. However, seeing this is most probably your first time, we only use one. The more time that pass, the more lead weights you need to put on."
Once they put it on, Soi Fon had given Yoruichi some cones and they started practicing Zig-Zag running.
And the whole training routine continued all the way until dinner time. Once they were able to go, the females had rushed to bathe while the male had rushed to dinner and was promptly told to bathe before coming to eat.
After dinner, they went back to sleep. Sirius had started guffawing so loudly when he saw Harry try to "climb" the stairs (if anyone considers crawling as climbing).
Everyone was sure that they would be waking up with terrible muscle aches the next day.
And they had no idea how RIGHT they were.

Forgive me. I am not an athletic person and thus knows little about exercise movements. Though I have some ideas about it...
