Chapter 6: Training partner
For the three and a half weeks Tamara was knocked out Tayla and Sara were busy, they did odd jobs around the base during the day and practicing in the training hall at night after everyone has gone to sleep.
They didn't have the skill test because Pein had come down with a terrible cold and was bedridden for the same amount of time Tamara was, the new date for the test is tomorrow morning.
It was now the middle of the night and the girls were training with Tobi who found them training a few nights ago.
Flashback
Tayla threw a kunai at Sara (they 'borrowed' them from the store room)
Sara dodged it and did some hand signs, she jumped up and yelled "Fire style: Fire Butterfly Jutsu!"
Flickers of flames appeared all around the room, one grazed Tayla's arm, burning it "ah!" she grabbed her arm and looked at Sara who was smirking "so this is the jutsu you created, huh?"
Sara nodded, this time Tayla smirked "well I have one I created as well"
Sara's smirk faltered as Tayla raced through hand signs "Water style: Fire Absorbing Jutsu!"
A small ball of water formed in Tayla's hand and started floating around the room absorbing every flame it touches, every time it touched a flame it grew in size until it burst, sending Sara flying into a wall.
Tayla walked over and helped her up "you did well Sara" Tayla complimented, Sara smiled "you were great, that was a brilliant clean finish" she said with a grin.
"And what part of it was clean?" A voice spoke up, Tayla and Sara turned around to see a soaking wet Tobi.
"Oh hi Ma-" Tayla slapped her hand over Sara's mouth and started rapidly talking "oh Tobi, what are you doing up…and here? Shouldn't you be in bed? Asleep? Sorry we got you wet" she laughed nervously.
Tobi walked up to them "Tobi couldn't sleep, so Tobi went for a walk and saw you two fighting here and decided to watch" he said.
"Oh"
"Tobi has never seen those jutsus before, where did you get them from?" Tobi asked, Tayla and Sara looked at each other before answering "we created them"
"you see when we arrived we didn't know how to fight or use chakra, so every night we came here and trained so we could get better before our skill test" Sara told him, Tayla nodded "so it's a good thing leader-sama has a cold then huh?" Tobi asked.
"That was a stroke of luck on our part but now I think we're ready, I also think we should go to bed, I'm rather tired" Tayla said, Tobi cocked his head to the side as Tayla and Sara began to walk to the door of the room "see ya later Tobi" Sara called out over her shoulder with a smile.
"Just one more question, how's Tayla-san's and Sara-san's Taijutsu?" Tobi asked, Tayla and Sara froze "we haven't practiced that yet" Tayla admitted turning round, Tobi shrugged and walked up to them "I can teach you Tai jutsu tomorrow if you wish" he spoke very un-Tobi like, Tayla nodded "yes thank you Tobi" she said as Tobi walked out of the room.
End Flashback
So for the next few nights Tayla and Sara learned strong Taijutsu moves from Tobi and even had a few matches with each other.
Tayla stood there panting with Sara next to her in no better condition, across from them stood their opponent…Tobi.
"You okay Sara?" Tayla asked looking at her partner out of the corner of her eyes, Sara nodded "then let's go!" Tayla shouted rushing towards Tobi who sidestepped her attack and hit her in the back, sending her flying.
Sara moved faster then Tayla and aimed a side kick at Tobi, Tobi blocked it at the last second with his arms, the force of the impact made him stumble back a few steps.
"Not bad, let's cut this lesson short, Tayla-chan's and Sara-chan's test is in the morning, so Tayla-chan and Sara-chan should get lots of rest" Tobi told them, Sara nodded and got out of her fighting stance as Tayla got herself out of a bunch of equipment she landed in.
They said their goodnights and went to their own rooms, Tayla nursed her injured arm from her crash landing "I hope this is better in the morning" she muttered as she got changed.
"Good night Tayla" Sara chirped as she snuggled into her blankets more like good morning" Tayla muttered before saying louder "good night Sara"
She shrank into her bed and fell asleep.
