Fine Print [P, Ryou]

Akane would make her way through the Black Market's social zone. Today she was going to work her ass off training with Ryou Kenshin whom she had just recently met the other day when Kazuo brought both her and Ezra to meet up with a group of ninja who aspired to work against evil in the world, Hitsuyō Aku. Akane didn't know much about Ryou but hoped to learn much more about him as they trained. Hopefully, the two of them could spend the whole day training as she needed to work on her Taijutsu.

As Akane walked through the Social Zone she would come across a couple benches and would sit down at one as she waited for Ryou to show up. She was quite early so she didn't expect him to be there for a little bit so she'd take this time to herself and would lean her head back and close her eyes. She needed to prepare herself mentally for this training as it could be just as mentally exhausting as it is physically exhausting. Akane would think about Haruki and how she had to get stronger to protect him, he was her motivation nowadays when she was training. She had never met anyone who had motivated her as much as Haruki did. He was like a little brother to her and she felt that she needed to be able to protect him with her life.

Ryou had meet this girl, named Akane. She was a part of the same group Ryou was in, Hitsuyo Aku. It was a strange group made just recently. The two group members said that they would meet for training, which Ryou needed as much as the older women did.

Ryou found Akane sitting at a bench in the middle of town, just resting. "Akane, over here!" The Lycan called to her and rushed over. He would then say after arrivin, "ready for some training?" If the answer was a yes, then Ryou would say, "Good, lets get out of public." With their training he didn't really need to have people getting in the way.

Once Ryou lead them to an open space to train he stopped to look at her. "Do you wanna spar first?" The D-ranked missing ninja asked. He was so ready to spar and maybe train a bit with his new werewolf body.

Akane would look raise her head and look at Ryou as she heard him call her name from a distance. She would then wait for him to arrive and would rise from her seat and would nod yes when he asked her if she was ready to train. She would then follow him to an area in the Social Zone where it was safe for the both of them train and would answer the question he asked upon their arrival, "Sure." 

Akane would then move around ten meters away from the young boy and would face him before asking him if he was ready. If he said yes she would then begin to countdown and would wait for him to make the first move. Ryou seemed to have quite a lot of experience as a ninja and she wanted to see how he would initiate combat with her. Akane would make sure that she was ready to counter/block any attacks that came her way, if she was fast enough to do so. For all, she knew Ryou could take her out in the blink of an eye but hopefully he would let up on his speed so that it was a fair battle. She didn't want to bore him too much but she also didn't want to get taken out in a matter of five seconds because then the training would have simply been a waste of time for her because she'd just end up being his punching bag.

Ryou sees that Akane steps about 10 meters away. "I'm gonna try to train something as well if you don't mind." He warns and he takes the giant fuma shuriken off his back and placed it in the ground. Then his form starts to rapidly change form into a grey werewolf. It wasn't the prettiest sight for most people. Ryou was an exception because of Sal. To start things off he began to charge at her with a speed of 50. He would aim and punch at her with the power of 30. The Lycan hoped he wouldn't hurt her to badly and if he did he would have to heal her. It was a good sign how ever that there was no rage like the first time he transformed into the beast before her. That day was a good and bad day because he wasn't able to enjoy a full moon with his friend but it was good because with the transformation, he felt their bond was even tighter. Sadly, this didn't make Ryou feel any better about leaving him behind.

Akane would be shocked as she watched Ryou transform into a werewolf, she had never known that it was possible to do that but she didn't have time to think about that. Ryou had already made his move and he was moving quite fast, she needed to make sure that she was giving her all. Seeing that he was coming at her quicker than she could move she would put her arms up at a speed of 30 in an attempt to block his hit. Although when his fist came into contact with her body she'd turn into paper and the paper would move to the left and reconstruct Akane.

It had happened too fast that Akane didn't know what had exactly happened but she'd ignore it and would attempt to punch Ryou in the side at the speed of 30 and a power of 10. Hopefully, she'd be able to land the hit as Ryou realized what had just happened. If Akane missed she would be prepared to block the next attack, hoping that what had just happened wouldn't happen again.

After Ryou's attack hit, the strangest thing happened. It seemed to Ryou that Akane had transformed into thin slices of herself. Ryou didn't know what to make of it, it was truly a strange sight. Another werid thing was that Akane didn't seem to notice the strange phenomenon. At first thought, he thought it was a jutsu, maybe a genjutsu that she had placed him in. It would be clever to make a genjutsu seem so realistic. After her puny attacks hit him, he literally absorbed the attack, he would put his big paws in the tiger hand sign to attempt to release the "genjutsu". After the Lycan thought the genjutsu was released he went for another attack. Akane seemed to be ready for an attack because her arms were in a blocking position. In response he went to back hand her with only the power of 20 and speed of 60. This time he watched her carefully to see if the same thing happened, prooving that it wasn't a genjutsu or that it did work and he had figured out a genjutsu of hers.

Akane would be holding her arms up, ready to block the Lycan's next attack. Upon being backhanded by the Lycan Akane would be left with merely a bright red patch of skin. The backhand was quite painful but she ignored the pain, she was more interested in why what had happened before didn't happen again. Was it just luck that it happened or was she just hallucinating?

Akane would ignore what happened before and would merely pass it off as luck. Perhaps somebody was watching over her and made sure that she didn't take too much damage. If it happened again she would ask the young boy what he thought was happening but in the meantime, she would continue with the spar. Akane would attempt to follow up Ryou's backhand with a punch to his face at a power of 10 and a speed of 30 and hopefully, it'd do something, unlike the last punch that she had landed on him. If her hit failed to do any damage once more she would simply attempt to start using the only offensive Jutsu she knew how to use or Akane would possibly attempt to try a new Jutsu that she had been dying to learn for the past couple weeks.

It was good that Ryou's attack didn't hurt her to much. Her attack was next, which was another swing at the face. It was a good play, the face is normally the most painful when struck. Luckily for Ryou, her movements were a bit slow. This gave him time to move his large hands and grab her arm. Now with her arm in hand, Ryou brought her back at bit before throwing her about 15 meter away from him (power 30). Now that she was further away, Ryou changed back. "Are you ok?" If she need medical help, then Ryou would rush over weaving hand signs for medical ninjutsu. Whether she needed the help or not, Ryou would ask. "Was that a jutsu you used? The one that made you look like you turned into paper?" The D ranked ninja hoped it was a jutsu that he could learn cause it looked handy.

As Akane swung her fist straight for Ryou's face she'd feel his arm almost instantly grapple onto her arm, she knew that this was where she was going to lose the spar. She'd feel her body quickly fly forward before she was thrown. Akane would land around 15 meters away from Ryou and would slide further back across the ground for around another meter, leaving her with a scraped up back and holes in the back of her shirt. She didn't think that he'd pull something like that but she should've been prepared for the worst.

When Akane sat up she'd see that Ryou was rushing over to her asking if she needed medical assistance. Of course, she'd accept the assistance but just before she could, her back would suddenly stop hurting. She thought it could be the adrenaline from the fight causing her to not feel any pain but that wasn't the case. When Akane turned around she would learn forward and tell Ryou that she might need to be healed before realizing that there were scraps of paper on the ground right behind the spot she had been sitting just before. 

She would then answer Ryou's question while he examined her back and healed it if it needed to be healed, "I'm not sure... I thought I was just hallucinating or something. I've never done that before.."

As the Lycan was healing the women's back. She answered with a bit of an unsatisfying answer. "You don't know either huh?" Ryou began to run possibilities in his head. Only one thing it could be with out having her know or understand it. "Well, It could be a bloodline." He stated. Then he asked. "I've never heard of a bloodline with paper...do you know about your parents or siblings?" If she was able to tell him about her family, then maybe he be sure that it was a bloodline thing. Also, if it was a bloodline thing, how they would be able to harness the power within her.
