Ikyo looks slightly down at the water and noticed her hand in the water was not holding the chain anymore, she then looks at her wrist to see that the cuff was gone. "When... when did…?" Asked Ikyo in shock after she looked back at her in surprise that she couldn't speak. "As soon as I had your attention I let the chain go and remove the force field but you didn't even notice. And now that you know you're still in the water, to me that means something, right?" Asked Na-Na calmly then she stood up and smiled slightly down at her.
Ikyo looks up at her then back down at the water, she was still afarid but not as much as she was before. "But why I'm still afraid of it?" Asked Ikyo in a low voice before she started to rub more tears from her eyes. "When your able to control your full powers you won't even have to touch any kind of water unless you want to. And when that happens you will be in control of the water not it over you. Then when your in need the most it can be your greatest weapon along with all the other elements I'm going to teach you how to control. First you need to control this environments element which is water because this is where your going to be fighting my sister." Said Na-Na strongly then she then put her hand out in front of them and made some of the water start to form in a ball on top of the water. Then she started to lift it up out of the water until it was between her hands with her not even touching it. When she seen that she had Ikyo full attention she slowly started to make the ball fall back towards the water. But instead of returning it back to the water it started to push the water away from it the closer it was getting down to it until all the water around them was pushed around them with them inside a circle of water with none around their feet. Ikyo looked at the bear ground and put her hand on it before she looked at the ball in front of her hand and them with her eyes widen in shock before she slowly looked up at Na-Na who smiled slightly down at her. Then she move the ball of water above Ikyo's head after she looked back at it, making her watch it closely after she started to made it dance all around her. Then she made the water quickly circle around her until she transformed it into a rope and tightly wrapped around her then Na-Na made the water rope quickly pulling her up onto her feet before she returned all the water back around them and let her go.
"Ok now that you know what your powers are capable of I want you to go down to the waterfall and try to move the water to reveal the cave behind it. Then go into it and come back and show me what you found I want you to bring me back five special items that are strongly connected to your powers." Said Na-Na calmly after she put her hand on her hip and looked at her then she stepped to the side to reveal the waterfall behind her. Ikyo looked at her still in a daze from what she just saw, but understood most of what she said before she nodded to her and toke a deep breath and started walking towards the waterfall. "It can't hurt me, it's just water, it doesn't control me… I control It." Said Ikyo strongly to herself in a low voice out loud after she was standing on a rock beside the waterfall. She looks up at it then back down at the water in front of her, she closed her eyes and imagined the water opening up to reveal the cave behind it. When she opened her eyes to the water in front of her she put her hand out it front of her with it quriving slightly as she was moving it closer towards the water. But because of her fear of it she didn't noticed that because her powers to control water was connected to her fear of it that she had move the some of the water for a moment before she put her hand down.
Then she started to kneel down on the rock with her eyes closed as she was tightly holding her tail because she was overwhelmed with fear. She didn't opened her eyes for a while until she put her hand down on the rock and didn't feel the water hitting it. When she opened her eyes she looked down and seen that the water around the rock had been pushed away after she had kneeled down because when she stood back up it returned. She then looked up at the wall of water in front of her and started to move towards it and it started to open up to the cave behind it. She could see something shining within the wall after she stepped into the cave then the water closed behind her making her jumped from it in surprised then she noticed a dim shining light farther within the cave. She started to rub her hand along the wall of the mountain as she was walking towards the light, the farther she when she noticed the rock within the wall start to get bigger and brigther as she was getting closer to where the light was coming from. When she looked around the corner to the light she seen crystals of all different colors shining all around her after she stepped into the cave, she looked around in surprise. Six different colored crystals seem to draw her attention more than the rest. She looked for some small one that was free from the walls and put them in her pouch tied onto her belt. When she left the cave Na-Na was outside waiting for her after just finishing casting the spells for their training into her staff.
"I found these in the cave." Said Ikyo excitedly after she pulled the crystals out to show her. She first toke one crystal that was blue and the another that was red before she gave Ikyo back the others. Na-Na looked at her and smiled at her after she looked the crystals closely. "Can you believe that you couldn't have find these if it wasn't for that cave. That cave was created by the water from the waterfall itself. (Ikyo looks at the waterfall beside them in disbelief before she looked back at her) These crystal been behind there for hundreds to even thousands of years. I learned that's it can take adout that long for the water to make caves like this one to reveal it secrets. (she starts to walk towards the sparing circle and Ikyo runs up beside her) Each crystal within has a special power of its own that's connection to the energy that makes up the world you see around us and what you can't see which make energy to survive like it dose. (Ikyo looks around for a moment until they stops at the sparing circle) Let me show you what I mean in the sparing circle, we use this circle not just for sparing but to restoring owr energy in away from the negative things of this world that can attack us and make us not able to use owr powers by making ud sick in some way. So within this circle is all positive energy from the earth itself to restore owr powers. The one back at home does the same thing, the only difference is that father made the small one at home for us, while my brother made this one which is way bigger since there's so many of us. But father made both of them be able to restore any mages energy, this is what happens when we uses it. (she steps into the circle) I like you to stay outside the circle while I show you this but first I have to put some of own energy into the crystals you found to activate there powers for a while. (she hold each crystals in each hand) Now watch what happens as I sit the blue crystal down on the ground. (she sit it down and flowers start to grow from it within the circle) Okay now watch as I sit the red crystal down." Said Na-Na in a soft voice then she sits the red crystal down by her feet but not that close to the blue one. The flowers start disappear returning the circle back to how it looked before, except at one spot that had one flower which was where the blue crystal was sitting at.
"That's was so amazing!! But Na-Na want happens when you add a crystal that stores negative energy within the circle?" Asked Ikyo strongly after she looked at the crystals and flower before she looked at her. "I'll show you, but Ikyo what I'm going to do next I don't want you to ever do because these crystals may look like pure energy crystal, but they are not. (she steps out the circle and holds her hand in front of her making a dark purple crystal appear) This one hold pure negitive energy within it, I found it at the market yesterday. If you ever find one like this destroy it but make sure the weather is nice or the negative energy from it will defend itself from your crystal and destroy them instead. Now I'm going to show you what happens when I put it into the circle with the other two without a barrier around it then I'll show you how to destroy it." Said Na-Na seriously as she looked at her and Ikyo quickly nodded to her then she looked back at the crystal. As she was slowly moving it towards the ground between the two crystal it started to kill the grass around it after she used her power to sit it down. When the dead grass was close to the flower it started wilting away. The blue crystal tried to restore the flower but couldn't so it and the red crystal started to make lightening attack the dark purple crystal.
Their was so much energy being use that it looked like a small lighting storm was starting to form within the circle as the blue and red crystals was trying to destroy the dark purple crystal until the energy Na-Na put in them was gone. Ikyo was looking at the dark purple crystal with her eyes widen in disbelief and fear, but she didn't know why and the from the lighting seem to scared her. Na-Na looked at her and could tell that she was becoming afraid, she then used her powers to remove the crystal off the ground restoring the grass then she put a barrier around the crystal. Then she made her powers take out a set of eight crystals from the pouch around her neck. She then put barriers around each of the crystal before placing them closer around the dark purple crystal within the circle. Each crystal starting to spin around it as it was sending strong bolts of lighting towards the dark purple crystal in the center of them. Na-Na made the crystals from Ikyo disappeared from the circle and into Ikyo's hands. Then the other crystals started making a whirling sound as they was moving faster around the dark purple crystal as they was sending more energy towards it until it was finelly destroy. Ikyo could now see the dark energy that was inside the crystal inside the barrier now, the crystals around it started to glow brightly as they was moving closer towards the negative energy until it disappeared along with the barrier.
"When you have learned how to control your energy you'll be able to transfer it into you own crystals that are connected to you that you have picked from the cave. Each crystal you have hold part of a different power within them of yours from the earth, I will teach you more once the time is right. (she returns her crystals back to her pouch and Ikyo nods back to her) Now since that's done let see what you know adout figthing with that new staff of yours, try to hit me, that is if you can but I don't want you to use any of your magic because I want you to use your other powers first." Said Na-Na seriously then she made a staff appear in her hand and made a barrier around them from one of the spells Ikyo gave her after making it touch the ground. "I can do that with no problem." Said Ikyo calmly then she smiled slightly at her and toke out her new staff. Once they where in the sparing circle and had their staff touching Na-Na used her powers to make the wind blow harder. When she made it stop Na-Na hit Ikyo's staff hard pushed her back after she blocked her attack then she tired to hit back. But before she could she disappeared behind her hitting the back of her leg making her fall onto the ground with her bracing herself up with her staff. Ikyo quickly got to her feet and swinged at her, she jumped back then disappearing again. "Your stands is right, but you shouldn't put so much force into your swings. You need to use your powers to be quicker and stronger or you won't be able to take a hit to your lower body without being knocked down." Said Na-Na in a soft voice in Ikyo's ear after she appeared behind her. She looks back at her then pulls the left side of the staff closer towards herself like she was going to hit her on that side but when she quickly moved her right side to hit her but she blocked her before she could.
"That was quick and clever of you, making me think you was aiming for me on your left instead, now that's how you need to figth your opponents." Said Na-Na strongly then she appeared in front of her and used her staff to pushed her back and aimed for her side that was opened. But she quickly blocked her and pinned her staff onto the ground. Na-Na stepped back to free her staff and looked at her in surprise, Ikyo had positioned her hands on her staff that one had her fingers up with only her thumb holding the staff. She noticed this earlier when she had blocked her but it was her left hand at first and now it was her right. The hand she had her fingers up off the staff was closer to her body than the other side was. This could be Ikyo's down fall during her battle if she was not careful. Na-Na started to use this to her advantage, but what she didn't know is that Ikyo was doing this knowingly. When Na-Na charge at her Ikyo quickly ran so fast that it seemed like she disappeared. When she stop to hit Na-Na she used her staff to fly over her to hit her back. She was so quick that before Na-Na could dodge her fast enough to block her attack because before she jumped over her she had hit the side of her leg in the air. Na-Na started to follow the motion of Ikyo's staff as she was trying to hit her after she got herself back together after she was surprised for a moment after she had jumped over her. She rolls back from her and blocks her attack and slightly push her back enough to knock her feet from under her. As she was falling back she knocks her staff out of her hands before she disappeared from her sight. Ikyo now knew that she needed to act fast and calmly to find out where she is going to show up next after she quickly grabs her staff from beside her on the ground. She slowly started to looked around as she was slowing her breathing down then she heard a faint shish like sound like the wind was opening a door behind her. She quickly change the position of her hands on her staff and turn around hitting Na-Na shoulder after she had appeared in front of her.
"Good, now again just like that, but this time I want you to fight me with all your powers like your in a real battle." Said Na-Na strongly after stepping back from her and rolled her shoulder. "Finally." Said Ikyo excitedly then she nodded to her. "First I need to focus my energy to be able to use the powers I need in order to win." Said Ikyo calmly to herself as she was looking over Na-Na's fighting stands. She noticed earlier that when she would she would hit her it would be from her rigth side more that her left and when she was hitting on her left she would clench her hand around the staff tighter.
