Articho laughed and scratched at the back of his head. "Yeah, that sounds like her," he said. Ever since I got back from training with my first master, she was really motherly and overbearing. I think she feels that way since her little boy left her and came back a man." He paused, listening to her next statements before nodding. "I guess you can see them all when you come by Kame House. You'll think some are pretty funny," the younger hybrid replied. He went silent for a moment before speaking again. "Kinda hard not to think about when it's basically all I've been thinking about since I went to Heaven."
"Neither do I, Ninjin. Neither do I," Aritcho agreed. "But since when have Saiyans ever been able to control their temper in times like that."
Articho laughed again, nodding in agreement. "It sometimes feels like that. Trying to force out all that energy really strains the body. I couldn't maintain that for much longer than a few minutes," he said. His eyes flashed excitedly when she proposed a spar between him and her. "Can Namekians regrow limbs?" The younger hybrid crossed his arms over his chest as he watched Ninjin make the ring before nodding at her. "Ladies first," he said with a grin.

“True enough point that you have there Articho. Our fathers people seem to be… rather to warlike especially compared to the both of us. I am rather happy that Toma is not like that. Though he has his moments of want to fight but usually I just hit him in the back of the head and he calms down.” As she spoke the last little bit she laughed loudly as she looked at him chuckling. It was obvious that she was giving him a little bit of information about the two of them. The fact she could calm down her husband so easily was a good thing. It had helped them occasionally but also was a negative in other moments.
Smirking at Articho as he made the joke about NAmekians. “I don’t know can they?” She spoke obviously teasing Articho back she was being cheeky with him. The Super Saiyan glow around herself was a little weaker than Articho’s glow but she knew that this was not just about sheer power. As she knew in terms in just sheer power Articho would trounce her but she was hoping that her own self taught skill would allow her to at least maintain pace with Articho in this skill matchup.
Pushing forward she would begin the spar with a combination of strikes aimed at Articho’s joints with sharp knuckles before swinging two swift hooks toward his face. All the while a smile was on her face as this sparring was something that she had been looking forward to despite the painfully obvious power gap.

"As much as I wouldn't like it to be so, your husband is a part of a very, very small minority in that regard. Hell, I wouldn't put it past Saiyan hybrids to have the same levels of battle lust somewhere down within us," Articho mused. "The human half helps keep it in bay to some degree but everyone's got a breaking point. And with the kind of anger it takes to ascend to higher levels of Super Saiyan, it doesn't surprise me that I have seen hybrids lose control before."
Articho rolled his neck around to loosen it up before striking a fighting. He watched as Ninjin lunged at him before quickly moving his limbs out of the way of her strikes before lifted his hands up and blocking her double punch. "Getting a little slow there," he said before jumping up and aiming a dropkick at his former master's chest, aiming to use the force to back flip back and land on his feet again. He went back to his stance again, giving Ninjin the "bring it on" gesture.

Ninjin would not be surprised as he managed to move his limbs out of the way of her strikes and that he countered her so effortlessly. The drop kick landed on her chest and sent her spinning through the air before landing just inside the line she had created inside the sand. Dusting herself off she got back to her center of balance and drew herself back into her stance as she heard him speak.
His taunt actually drew a smirk and chuckle from Ninjin. Shaking her head lightly from side to side as she looked directly at him “It is not that I have gotten slow… It is that the pupil has surpassed the master and the master now wants to see just how far that the pupil has gone…”
“Articho you are the greatest student I have ever taught. You have never given up. You have always strived to maintain the priniciples that where in your mind and that I hoped I help inspire within your head… I cannot be more proud. Now show me what it is that you have learned in heaven Articho.” She finished speaking as she yelled out and le the golden energy burst around herself and she would push forward once more. Fists flying at him then she would vanish to get a strike in using her speed. It was a tricky move but if he dodged or blocked she would have an idea for the next round.

"I think I may be moving a little too fast for you to actually see it," Articho replied jokingly. "By this point, its less seeing how far I've gone and trying to find where I've gone."
The younger hybrid felt his chest swell with pride at Ninjin's statement. "Like I said before, without you, I wouldn't be anywhere near this level or even the same person," he said, nodding respectfully. "You'll have to give yourself some credit, too." He readied himself for her attacks, managing to block many of the blows until she vanished and landed a punch right on his cheek. Articho barely flinched from the blow before he pushed her hand away.
"Here we go!" Articho shouted as a burst of energy exploded around him, starting his combo technique. He swung his fist up in an uppercut aimed at Ninjin's jaw. If he managed to lang it, he'd follow up with an overhead kick, trying to kick her back to the ground. "PA!" he would shout as he thrusts his hand forward in an open palm strike.

“You know me… I would not take credit as I just want to push students past me. Guess that is why I… love to teach.” She spoke as her attacks came in and managed to connect with her strike. The fact he barely moved if moved at all did not surprise her. Ninjin felt her heart sink a little as the gulf in power was quite easily seen. Yet she was not out of tricks within her own bag of tricks.
The energy explosion from him actually caused her to stagger back from him and lose her center of balance. This momentary loss caused his punch to land square and she felt it lift her into the air. Yet as he would move to kick her Ninjin would smirk and raise her hands to beside her eyes on both sides. “Solar Flare.” A bright burst of light would erupt from her hands and blind Articho allowing her to slip to the side and regain her balance.
Planting her foot inside the ground she focused her ki and spun a kick directly at the temporarily stunned form of her pupil. She was hoping to send him at least careening toward the makeshift ring edge.

There was a sudden blinding light as Articho continued his combo, completely whiting out his vision. He instinctively covered his eyes as his jump arced up and started its downward arc. As he fail, he felt Ninjin's foot connect with his side. While it didn't hurt so much, his being blinded made him have his guard down and the kick knocked him away. He flipped through the air as his vision slowly returned. He spotted the line of their makeshift arena quickly approaching before releasing a burst of energy to stop his downward spiral. Articho blinked his eyes clear as he spun to face Ninjin again. "Oooh, tricky, tricky using a Crane School technique like that," the younger hybrid commented as he vanished and reappeared behind Ninjin. "You're not the only one with new tricks."
Before his old master could turn around and attempt to strike them, he disappeared again and appeared to her left with his staff in his hands. He swung the staff like a baseball bat right at her stomach. He followed up by aiming an ax kick at the base of her neck.

Watching Articho flip through the air she was a little hopeful that the trickery that she had done would of given her a few moments of reprieve. Which thankfully it seemed to do as he spun and caught himself just before the end of the arena. As he spoke about her being tricky and using an old Crane School technique brought a smirk to her face. “In order to defeat ones enemy you need to train like the enemy. Or at least that is what I have read in a few places…”
Her words were true as she had read that in a few places. But Articho’s quick movements did catch her off guard. Spinning her fist toward him she missed him completely as he vanished once more and he reappeared at her side with his staff. ::When did he… This is going to hurt. :: Tensing up her muscles as the staff impacted her stomach. Lifting her up off the ground before the kick impacted the back of her head and she face planted hard into the ground. Feeling a little woozy as she took a moment to regather herself before she focused and pushed herself back up and into the air with a massive push.
The fact she was a little woozy as she floated in the air she shook her head and looked at Articho. Raising a hand she actually floated back down to the ground and shook her head. “Need to forfeit…. Think I smacked my head a little hard on the ground there at the end…” Speaking as she moved to sit Indian style on the ground. “You know you have a lot more tricks than I thought you did. Could of swore I had you with that Solar Flare combination.”

Articho readied himself to fight again as Ninjin pushed herself back up, but dropped his hands down to his side as she forfeited. "Sorry about that," the hybrid said as he floated back down to the ground next to her. He interlocked his hands behind his head and grinned at his former master as she remarked about his new tricks. "Magic provides a lot of new possibilities. Especially the staff. No one ever sees the staff coming," he replied. "I did say I met a lot of interesting people in Heaven. Saw them do a lot of different tricks and learned that I need to adapt pretty often. It takes some quick thinking when your opponent suddenly fills an arena with a cube of water."
Articho sat down next across from her and rested his head in his hands as he braced his elbows against his knees. "Where'd you pick up that technique, anyway? I didn't think Cranes and Turtles intermingled like that."

She would wave her had as Articho apologized to her. To her she knew that it was obviously something that happens. The fighting and injuries that happened with it was something she expected. “It is nothing… You are much stronger than even I could remember those fists of yours are like steel weights . And yet I feel that you are still holding things back which means I have the feeling that it is even greater…”
Rubbing her head she felt the cobwebs finally clearing to the point that she felt him sit down beside her without actually seeing it. “For the technique I… well stumbled on an older student of the school. In exchange for some food they offered to show me one of the techniques of the school. That was what they taught me. It was interesting and hurt when they used it.”
Turning her gaze to look at him she gave him a reassuring smile. The fact she had had her bell rung like that was a little scary for her. Yet despite that going back to teaching others was what she wanted to do. Though an idea popped into her mind. “Arti. Why not create your own style utilizing your magical use combined with Turtle Techniques? Create things that could help a student be much trickier than before? As I have been thinking of creating a new style of fighting myself. I have a line in mind as you saw my wolf fist back when we trained? I was going to draw some stuff from that line.”

Articho nodded with a shrug. "Sort of, but it's not something I can use very often," he explained. "My teacher in the afterlife taught me a couple of techniques and one of them lets me boost my strength, speed, and stuff for short bursts at the cost of hurting my body. He called it the Kaioken and its actually pretty cool. And I'm one of two people who know it!" He grinned at her, quite proud to say of being able to say that.
"Hmm," the younger hybrid said unsurely, his expression changing to a look of uncertainty. "I don't know, Ninjin. It seems to me that electric shocks are better than just blinding someone."
Articho paused for a moment, looking down at his lap. "That would be...difficult, to say the least," he said slowly. "I've honestly no idea how my magical abilities work in the slightest beyond I just will stuff into existence and it happens. I don't know how to teach people how to use it and my abilities were specifically granted to me to aid the Turtle School itself. Not following through with that would feel like betraying the trust I was granted, you know?"

“I can agree that the Electrical Shock is much more suitable than blinding someone but imagine the combination of blinding someone then moving in tight and grabbing them with the Electrical Shock. Electrocuting them to the point that they are immobile and allowing for perfect strikes… You do bring up a good point Articho.” Smiling at him as she rubbed her head as the last of the whispy internal clouds faded away. It would be obvious as her eyes seemed to refocus and sharpen back up to how they where only a short time before. Rubbing her shoulder lightly she listened to him talk about his magic.
“Well it was a thought there Articho. I mean it was worth a shot to figure something out. Never can quite understand how that all works either… I think my half sister or step mother would know about it. I mean they both have a quote un quote goddess within them and they might have a few things that could possibly help you with that aspect of things. Though here I would leave that up to you to contact her.” Ninjin would reach down into her gi and grab her phone from a protected pocket. Pulling it out she would punch up a few things. It would take her a few moments as she sent out a quick text to someone before pulling up the information she was looking for.
“Here Articho. This is my sister her name is Aina and honestly I think you should go and talk to her. Her goddess might know a thing or two about magic but I am not to certain. And before you ask no I am not attempting to set you up with her.” Laughing lightly as she looked at Articho as she smiled at him. She shrugged as she offered over the phone to her former student. Hoping that Articho would actually take her up on the offer as she had sent a message to Aina about the young man and she had said she would actually meet him.
Taking a few more moments she smiled at him as she closed her eyes. “Articho… Just when you do fight Toma which for some reason I doubt will not do… I just want us to all work together and make the school better instead of having a constant infighting that seems to be working right now. Too many people fighting for the exact same position instead of just working together for the betterment of the school.”

Articho simply shrugged in response to, gripping his ankles and rocking back and forth a little bit. "Call it brand loyalty, I guess," he stated. "Plus, electricity is much cooler than just blinding someone."
"It would be helpful. All I've got is the skill, but very little knowledge on the subject itself. I might give her a ring. I could use the expertise," the younger hybrid said, scratching his chin with one hand while he took the number from her hand. He studied the number for a second until Ninjin's final statement reached his ears. Articho blushed furiously, looking down towards the ground as his face burned red. "...I didn't even consider that..."
Articho went quiet, looking off to his left thoughtfully. "I'm not trying to cause infighting, but I don't see too much of an issue in people testing themselves against each other. Think of it like a wolf pack," he explained. "We're all the pack and we help each other, but if a wolf thinks him or herself worthy, they can challenge the alpha for the right to run the pack. It's competition, motivation to get stronger and prove yourself the best, you know?"

Ninjin could not help but laugh as Articho’s face went red. Smiling at him widely as she realized that she had accidentally pushed him to fully embarrassed as she had inadvertently. “You may not of but I do… Heck us women talk a lot and to be honest she has wanted to meet some of the people that knew me back when I was more of a free spirit and trained easier instead of being such a homebody.”
Shaking her head she just gave Articho a smile as she finally seemed to fully get over the knock around in the head. “That is a great way to think about it. Just I know how you men get around one another. Picking back and forth like that is good for your egos but I am going to focus on the students. Just tell me this. If you take over will you still allow me to train the students that I am already teaching?”

"Jeez, you sound like my mother," Articho said, rolling his eyes at her as he felt his cheeks burn hot. "She's always trying to convince me to call girls and find a girlfriend and stuff. It's so weird." He scratched at the back of his head awkwardly. He didn't like thinking about having to settle down and being in a relationship. Simply, he just wanted to train and fight people.
The younger hybrid nodded adamantly with a smile. "Yeah, of course you can. I'm not trying to shut you guys out completely."
