(Misread as him coming in for training. XD) Asuka shook her head slightly when Kiro tell forward. [i]This boy is going to need a lot of work.[/i] Asuka waited until Kiro walked up to her before speaking. "I'm glad you're here," she said, "We're going to focus on your strength, since you can't even push a door open." The last part wasn't said with venom, but it wasn't exactly warm either. "Show me your punch," she said and when he did she clicked her teeth. "We're going to work on that too." She got into a horse stance, feet about shoulder width apart and her legs bent so her knees were nearly with a ninety degree angle. "Get in this stance. It's one of the more traditional stances, especially in karate. A lot of moves can flow from this stance, but today I'm just showing you how to punch properly." She put her fists to her hips, her elbows pointed behind her. "Punch out straight with your right arm, twisting your cost until it flattens and you finish the punch. Keep your wrist straight and don't hold your thumbs in your hands." She gave a slow demonstration then continued, "Keep your right and up and start punching with your left. As you punch, being your right arm back into the starting position." She demonstrated a couple more punches like this. "Show me." Once she felt Kiro was getting the hang of it, she said, "Do you see those dumbbells? Pick them up and punch. I want you to do one hundred punches with each arm. If one punch is off you're restarting, understand?" She could tell this was going to be a big challenge for the boy, but if he could make it through this simple training he could push through other training too. "Your legs are going to hurt, but if I see your stance wobble even a little bit it's one hundred squats." Asuka watched him pick up the weights and said, "Start."
