*Komiko POV*

I was cooking in my house and waiting for my house mate to join me in my dinner. She told me that Justin asked her to train him how to fight.

I'm surprised by the fact that Aro even accepted to that. She is stubborn and likes to keep everything to herself. Making her open up and getting closer to her was one of the toughest thing I did in my life. To say the least, my life was really tough.

As I was waiting while I was reading a book, I saw my house mate enter the house with a stunned look in her face. I saw that and inquired about it to her.

"Hey Aro, did you see a ghost on your way home? Why are you looking like that?"

She then suddenly replied me with a question.

"Do you think it's possible to learn how to fight in one day..no erase that 2 hours?"

I was confused by her question.

"Aro, what are you talking about? Is this about training Justin?"

She then nodded and explained what happened.

"You know, at the first few minutes of the training, he was a complete newbie in fighting. Sure, he knew some mover or martial arts but I bet he never fought anyone one v one seriously. I thought I had a lot on my hand by accepting to train him. But he improved at a tremendous speed.

At first I could dodge his attacks effortlessly but as time passed by I had use more effort to do that. Eventually i had to put blocks with my arms and legs as he didn't give me any room to dodge.

After the 2nd hour, he made a move that almost landed a blow on me. I had no way of dodging or blocking. I had to kick him away as to not lose my pride on the first day."

I was bewildered as I heard her say this. It was absurd, you can't just learn how to fight in 2 hours. It takes months and even years for some people. I then regained my thoughts.

"Well, maybe he already knew how to fight and he was just messing with you?" This was the possible conclusion I could reach.

Arora just shook her head. "I know how to differentiate how a newbie fights and how a veteran fights. He can't fool me. No, I'm certain he didn't have any fighting experience. Usually someone who used to fighting would have a pattern but Justin he didn't have any of that.

He was just moving differently every time and he was doing it like he was doing that a first time. But as he repeated that he got more proficient in those moves. As the fight continued he just gave the feeling of being improved and adapting rather than acting.

I don't find any reason he wants to do that. Physically he is not that strong but not far away from me. That's what threw me off slightly. It's just hard to accept."

I know Arora. Her judgment in fighting are superb. She is a warrior that fought a lot in her life I won't question her judgement. It's just surprising to hear that about Justin.

"Well, if he is that good he would improve tremendously in short period of time. Maybe in a year or two he could be able to defeat you. If not…, well, let's just wait and see."

To which Arora just answered with a nod.

*Arora POV*

I don't know, if she overestimated Justin or underestimated me, he can't beat me in a year. Even if he gets more skill full than me he can't just increase his physical strength by that much in a short time.

But I'm not going to hold back in his training. I'm going to give my all. If he can beat me hand to hand in pure skill,I can even teach him my sword moves.

*Training day 2*

Today I went to train Justin after my shift was over. I was excited to train him.

I went to his gym and started fighting pretty quickly.

Surprisingly or unsurprisingly he didn't make a mistake that he already made. In today's fight I had to counter attack him 10 times. This is not normal. I know this is not normal. But I would not tell Justin any of this.

The thing worse than training a genius is training a genius that gloats and act arrogant. I don't want that for now. I just tell him he was making "better than most" in improvement.

I don't want to be cocky.

I shared my experience with Komiko again today. She was excited and wanted to watch us train and asked Justin's permission.

*Training day 3*

Both komiko and I went to his gym. Komiko just poured herself a glass of wine and watched us practise. She was really enjoying this.

Today it was really hard to dodge his attack. His attacks were precise and one after the other, he keeps them coming. I blocked all the attacks he laughed or counterattacked everything he made a good follow through.

I didn't count how many times he made me counterattack. It was a lot. Damn I hate this. This is not what I was expecting. I thought this was going to take months or atleast a year for him to surpass me but I think it would only take him about a couple of months.

Also weirdly, his physical strength keeps increasing drastically. Every blocks I make it hurts. My hands hurt like hell. But I would not show it.

*Training day 4*

I did not expect that coming. Today it was not me blocking and counter attacking, it was a full blown fight. I did not expect this to happen this fast. He is improving like he was a computer programmed machine.

I thought about it for a second. Looking at his improvement speed, If I miss this chance I won't ever get a chance to do this ever again. So I did the best thing a friend could do and also vent a little. A beatdown.

I used my full strength and all my skills to rub his face against the floor. I pitied him when I saw him with all those bruises. So I applied medicine on his injuries and left him to his win devise.

*Training day 5*

I think I shouldn't have pitied him so much. The next day I see him during the spar, the wounds were all gone. They just disappeared.

And the fight was favourable to me and not as overly as yesterday. He made lot of attacks and counter attacks. Some of his attacks even connected. I was surprised. But in the split second I was surprise at his attack he landed a second.

Because of that I went full on rampage and fought with full strength. Well, let's just say that he ended up more than just bruised at the end of the day.

I apologised to him for losing my cool but he said it was ok and it's all part of the training. I was truly surprised.

*Training day 6*

Today he learned how to block and dodge attacks efficiently. He was deftly blocking most of my attacks. And his physical strength catched up to me. I don't know what to say anymore.

Today it was not a eat down. It was almost an equal fight. But my attack landing rates were higher than his.

God, is this even real? Now our physical strength is on par with each other.

Is this even fair? I trained my body for years and fought countless fight to come to this stage. But this guy, he just went from newbie to almost equal to me in just 6 days.

*Training day 7*

I'm not surprised anymore. Today we fought like equals. In both skills and power.

We traded blows with each other. Both of us are bruised and battered after the fight.

We kept on fighting until both of us were sprawling in the floor.

I'm aware. This might be possibly the last time I could have an equal fight with him anymore. He was even improving while fighting.

At the end, in desperation as we were tired and battered, I tried to bite him and make him accept his defeat. But I was stopped by komiko. In her argument, she called me childish and immature.

Well, "YOU DON'T KNOW HOW I FEEL."

It was a total disaster. I asked for a break. After today's injury, it would take days for me to get healed.

I don't want to deal with this for some time.
