During their travels the trio had stopped to rest at a nearby lake, which rested in a large forest. Even though they were resting, and Maikeru found himself laying on the branch of a nearby tree, he was restless. A mixture of anxiety over this all being a bad joke, and excitement over the new home and opportunities awaiting him, he found himself unable to calm his racing mind. With a large sigh, he gently dropped from the branch, landing softly before walking towards the other two.
He playfully slapped Danni on the back of his head as he walked by her, throwing a small smile to her before looking to Reicheru. Removing Kusanagi from it's resting position on a rather large boulder that protruded from the ground, he slid it into his belt, before clapping his hands together. Activating his Sharingan, he gave the two of them a mischievous smile before placing his non dominant hand on the handle of his blade.
"Alright," He said, motioning towards the river. "We may be travelling, but that's no excuse to let our training slack. So, I say, today we work on teamwork in the best way we know how. We're going to fight."
He jumped back a bit, gracefully falling into a light footed sword stance he had learned before leaving the village. He hopped on the balls of his feet, rising his heart rate, getting his blood flowing and his muscles ready for whatever exertion was about to be required.
"Now, since there's only three of us, you two will team up against me." As he said this, he looked to Reicheru. "Plus, I think it'll be fun to grade the head of the academy, don't you dear?"
