Ryuu immediately stopped striking the training dummy when he felt a presence suddenly appear by his neck. It turned out that Annie, the red-haired teacher, just managed to somehow whiz up next to him with her fingers pointing directly at him.

"[b]You're slow and leave yourself wide open,[/b]" she said, as if Ryuu were a Panzer missing its caterpillar tracks. "[b]You need to work on your agility and... You also need to stop leaving yourself wide open.[/b]"

The otaku awkwardly gulped, his wide eyes hidden thanks to the sunlight reflecting off of his sunglasses. 

[i]This chick- er, teacher is lecturing me before a minute passed, and I am absolutely not going to say anything about that.[/i]

She then backed away with a blank face, which managed to calm the sunglasses-wearing student's nervousness. With her distancing herself and lessening the possibility of murdering him, what could possible go wro-

"Come at me [s]bro[/s]- with your fists, please. For the purpose of this, I'm going to say no powers. We want to first work on your basic skills and then move on to how to improve powers. But if you improve your basic skills, your powers should improve on principle."

[i]Sh-- just got real.[/i]

Ryuu felt his eyes twitch as he watched Annie wave her hand at him.

Suddenly, a spike of excitement entered his body as he took a deep breath. Fire entered his eyes as his good(?) heart began to pump his adrenaline faster and faster. Standing before the redhead, he assumed a crude stance, raising his hands in front of him. Back in his street punk days, Ryuu fell into many situations where he needed to use brute force to knock sense into people. He never learned proper martial arts because no one really wanted to teach a scary-looking gangsta-style student like him, so he had to come up with [i]something[/i] if he wanted to keep fighting.

The otaku raised his hands in front of him, his stance roughly resembling a Southern Dragon Kung Fu stance. Though his stance may have been abysmal, the fire in him definitely was the opposite of the term "weak." Ryuu grumbled something about breaking his oath to not attack a woman. He then proceeded to run towards Annie before leaping over to the teacher. Spiraling his body around once, Ryuu attempted to perform an airborne haymaker, wondering what sort of response awaited from the red-haired teacher before him.
