Chapter 9: Learning to run(2)

After the speech I gave outside we entered the warehouse. Master Wu leads us to a corner of the warehouse where a few thick rugs were on the ground and some people were talking. They stopped and looked at us with curiosity.

"Enough chatting. Get to sparring."

After Master Wu's command, they started to stretch and find some sparring partners and going barefoot on the rugs. While this was happening Wu took us to a corner and put us to do horse stance, correcting our posture he went to the others.

We stayed there for what seemed like hours but I knew it wasn't more than ten minutes. While Kai, Nya, and Zane were quietly talking I was watching to see what the other people there were doing. They were learning to hit vital spots and how to hit them. It was very interesting looking at them and while I didn't know very much about martial arts I could see that they were quite proficient in what they were doing. Once in a while, Wu came to correct their posture and to show them certain things, and explain methods to combat different types of a bender.

"Ethan, do you think we're going to do anything else other than horse stance"

I turn my head and see my friends looking at me wanting an answer.

"No, I don't think we're going to do anything else than horse stance today, in fact, I don't expect us to learn any martial arts any time soon."

"Then what are we even doing here," Said Nya while puffing.

"Guys if you expected to come here and become martial arts masters overnight you are greatly mistaking. That in the first place takes years of constant practice. While we have an advantage because we started this early it will still take us a few years and another big problem we have is that we need to gain their trust in order for them to teach us or at least show to them that we are serious about this."

There was a small pause in which I looked at them.

"Or did you guys expect them to teach us just because of a few nice words on my part, besides how could we perform the moves we learn if we don't have strong muscles so this training is a good way for us to strengthen our bodies? Let's give it our all!"

They noded at me but they didn't seem too happy about what I told them.

After a few minutes, I could tell that my legs were starting to give up, I looked at my friends they had it way worst than me. While I trained before it wasn't at a very high intensity but I could see the fruits of my labor while looking at them.

'Well if I start to give up they are going to give up as well.'

Thinking that I straightened my posture and continued. Seeing me do that gave them newfound strength. I think we stayed for about twenty minutes before Nya collapsed from exhaustion, then Kai about a minute after. I and Zane stayed for about five more minutes before he collapsed as well.

Then Wu came to us looked at Zane as the last one fall and said.

"Well done kid you have determination." He then looks at me and asks. "Did you train before?"

"Not really I just run a lot when I go out."

"Ok, the rest of you start running. You, don't stop. I want to see how much more you can endure."

While my friends started to do laps around the improvised sparing ground I stayed and continued my torture. I stayed about ten more minutes when my legs felt like they could break.

'Hmph, I didn't want to relay it anymore but what harm could a few minutes of using it do.'

So I entered my 'limbo state' and I could instantly see the difference. I straightened posture my posture and waited. While I waited I started to inspect my body. I could tell that because of constant training my muscles became denser and I could feel that if I used my limbo state they would have become more so. While I was thinking about this my legs finally gave in and I fell face-first on the cold floor. Luckily I didn't get too hurt but I think I'm going to have a bump on my head in the morning.

I stopped my 'limbo state' and I could feel the pain hitting me like a train and the only thing I could grit my teeth.

"Well done boy, I didn't expect to last this long it was quite the surprise."

I looked at Wu and got on my feet and bowed at him.

"A pleasant surprise I hope master."

"Haha, kid, I like you more and more."
