Chapter 10
Hakkaku got up bright and early in the morning pleasantly surprised to find his breakfast ready, and waiting for him. He took off for patrol duty after eating and checking in on the pair once again. Kimi was the first to get up after Hakkaku left for patrol duty. She made her way to the river first thing to do the laundry and returned. She put breakfast on the table as Ginta woke up pleasantly surprised to see her up ready, and waiting for him. After eating he took her to the area that he and Hakkaku liked to use for training and practice. It was a wide open field nothing but grass, and a few streams. There were trees surrounding the field that had hills but it was easy to view for miles from here. He looked at Kimi saying, "I will start by seeing where you are at with a little test of your skills. This way I will know where to start your training."
Kimi nodded as she tried her best to block, and guard against his movements. She managed to block a few that were solo but anytime he used a combination attack he managed to hit her of course since this was an assessment Ginta wasn't trying to harm her. His hits were quite gentle but hard enough for her to know when they happened, and where she had been hit. After a few hours it was obvious to Ginta that Kimi couldn't block combo attacks well, and anything that was more than two steps she couldn't defend against at all.
Ginta sighed he had his work cut out for him hopefully she learned quickly. He started off by showing her the attack, and then showing her the defensive moves to counter the attack, and then repeating the attack until she blocked it. Once she got down the first one the other ones seemed to come to her much easier and didn't take as long to master. She was still only protecting herself, and not launching any attacks herself the only problem with this was that her opponent would tire her out if she didn't launch attacks. For now, he'd continue working with her on getting down the combo attack defense skills. It took many hours of form correcting, and practice to get her combo skills up to a decent level. It had gotten late, and grown dark Ginta thought it would be best to call it a day there was still much for her to learn. For the first day of training, she had done well and caught on rather quickly. Well, at least when he physically showed her what he wanted it seemed she caught on faster than when he just told her what to do. They went back home he was pleasantly surprised when Hakkaku was there with food on the table, and it smelled delicious. Ginta looked at him and asked, "Did you make this?"
Hakkaku grinned replying, "No Kimi did she left instructions on how to heat it up should I get home first."
Ginta's mouth watered he really loved her cooking, she did it so well. He didn't realize until he thought that Hakkaku had made dinner how much he really enjoyed her cooking. Hakkaku looked over at Ginta and asked, "How did training go?"
Kimi replied, "I am sore in places I didn't know I had."
Hakkaku and Ginta chuckle a little before Ginta adds, "It went well we were working on blocking combo moves hopefully tomorrow we can work on both blocking, and attacking can't have her just blocking she will grow tired."
Hakkaku said, "It seems she will need at least a few months of training to make sure she can defend herself properly. But I think we should stick with attacks that will give her the option to escape our Kimi is too submissive to stay and fight if there is a way out. Besides, she's a great tracker so she could very quickly find her way to us for help. At least until we figure out how to bring her beast to the surface."
Ginta growled out, "She needs to know a kill move beast or not an attacking demon won't stop until they are killed or she is killed. Unless their goal is to mate her, and then she will really need to know how to kill them. I don't want her to go through that she will never be the same if that happens."
Hakkaku replied growling back, "I am aware of that I was just taking Kimi's submissive nature into account I honestly think without instinct to back her up she'd be better off running off to find us. If that isn't an option she should know how to kill true but I don't think she could bring herself to do so, and if she did I doubt she'd be the same again."
Kimi frowned grabbing Ginta and dragged him over to Hakkaku. She scooted into Hakkaku's lap bringing a surprised Ginta into his lap with her. She nuzzled into each of them she couldn't stand to see them fighting over what she needed to learn, and what she could, and couldn't do. She looked at them both seriously, and said, "I want you to teach me all you can until it's time for my next heat cycle in three months. This way I can be ready for anything only a real event will have to occur to find out what I will be capable of let's all hope I never have to be tested."
Ginta grinned as he scooted closer to her he nuzzled her back letting go of his anger at Hakkaku. He realized she was right they only had a short time before any training would need to be scaled back if not completely dropped until after the pup was born. There was no point in arguing over what she could or couldn't do in an extreme situation. The only true way to find out would be for the situation to happen.
Hakkaku was quite impressed he agreed that they shouldn't argue since there was limited time in which for them to train her. They just needed to get her ready for anything she may come across until she went into heat. Once she carried their pup he wasn't sure if he'd want her to continue training or not.
