Keisa watched every step Sinai took, holding her Katana firm in her left hand. Rio promoted Keisa, knowing the girl needed more work on controlling her spiritual energy since it tended to spiral out of control often. Keisa nodded while glancing at Rio in acknowledgement before looking back at Sinai. The girl placed both hands behind her back, however Keisa only kept her eyes on the whole of the woman's body, her own body still. Sinai then launched so Keisa held her sword out with her left hand, pointing it to Sinai. Keisa's sword was then knocked upwards but Keisa kept her eyes straight as Sinai sent a punch heading for her gut. Keisa grabbed the girl's fist, holding her there while pushing her sword against Sinai's, trying to force the sword back as Keisa quickly lifted her right knee, aiming to knee the girl in the stomach.

Sinai kept her left foot forward to solidify her balance and her stance, since she just threw a punch with her left foot. The catching of this fist was a decent surprise and it locked them in place. Sinai could feel her opponents weight shift to her right side, which meant something was coming from Sinai's left. both hands were accounted for so the knee to the stomach was taken as Sinai shifted her weight from her left foot to her right foot. she pushed hard against he blade with her right arm while she lifted her left foot quickly into the kidney of the opponent. her stomach stung but moving away from the blow lessened the damage, but still hurt. Sinai snatched her hand back to release her hand from kiesa's grasp and swung again with a palm strike, a Tessho. if it landed that would be great but it was really intended to put knock her completely off balance by making her dodge. as Rio might be noting, Most of Sinai's moves are precise, she has both hit and miss strategies for most of her strikes.
