Never being one to go lightly on herself Kaiyo had made herself a single promise, to master Shunpo; she was currently average in her class at Shunpo and had decided that this was just not good enough. She had deisgned a routine for herself, each morning before lessons at the acadamey she would go for a run, and try some more shunpo.

Kaiyo woke up early, like most mornings, and she changed into some comfortable clothes. While wandering around the acadamy on her first day Kaiyo had overheard so students talking about a large field perfect for practising Shunpo, she had a rough idea where the field was, but nothing specific. She set off in the right direction, just outside the acadamy gates was a small footpath, she followed it along in a slow jog, her special alternative to stretching which never really stopped her from pulling muscles. After various 'short cuts' Kaiyo had arrived at a large field, whether or not it was the right large field had become irrelevant she simply wanted to hurry up and get better.

Ever the one to pace herself Kaiyo stood at one end of the field and tried to direct her Reiatsu towards her feet area, she stood still for a while and began counting out loud, 'Three....Two...' she paused to take an extra breath, 'One' Kaiyo leaned forward and attempted to Shunpo. She had travelled about half the fields length, before leaning too far forward and faceplanting the ground, her face was covered in mud and grass along with various cuts and grazes on her face and arms. Kaiyo sat up slowly to inspect the damage, she sighed heavily, ' I can't be the only student to end this badly while training...i could have tried it with my sword out as well' Kaiyo sat on the ground for a while thanking God she still had both arms.

Eventually she got up with a heavy sigh, 'take two' she grinned. She slowly returned to the other side of the field and began to regain her focus. Being a true believer of hard work Kaiyo leaned forward again, this time remembering to lean back a bit once she had started. She tried to keep her eyes open but the pure speed was too much of an unusual sense to Kai, she hadn't fallen that was the main thing. Unwilling to open her eyes again to see how far she had travelled Kaiyo reverted back to her fail safe, 'Three..Two....One' Kaiyo quickly opened her eyes and turned around to check the distance. She grinned wildly through the cuts of her first attempt and began to cheer and jump with joy, 'The whole field!, i'm amazing'

He legs still uneasy on the ground, from the increased speed to which they were unaccustomed, Kaiyo hobbled back to have a shower. Not expecting that hot water on various cuts would be so painful Kaiyo decided to skip her morning class and rejoin at lunch, she lay down on her bed for a quick nap. She lay there thinking for a while, well it only took a few cuts and bruises and i can Shunpo..well i can do it once with my eyes shut... Before drifting off into a well needed rest Kaiyo gave herself one more task, 'tomorrow, i keep my eyes open'

(ooc: can i carry on?)

A plan had struck the girl, a practical use of her ability. She had just had another Shunpo lesson, she had made a bit of progress, but nothing to be cheering about. As the young girl jogged to her familiar 'shunpo field' and idea had struck her, and she was currently basking in all its glory. Lets take shunpo as it were to be used in a fight, the purpose being to manover around your enemy at a high speed, to gain an advantage and attack. This meant that her previous training of distance was irrelevant (for the time being). So today she would be running shuttles, with Shunpo, and trying to shunpo short distances, to get around objects. Kaiyo entered the field and took a deep breath of air, she exhaled slowly, and prepared for her training.
In the field were two large trees, only a few metres from one another, always the optimist Kaiyo had decided she would start by using Shunpo go get around the trees. She compressed her spiritual energy and focused it at her feet, making a mental note to keep her eyes open Kaiyo sped off. She woke up some time afterwards, in the same field and with a large bruise on her forehead, it became quite apparant she had not dodged the tree. She puzzled for a while on the ground, then improvised. The reason ,she believed, she couldn't dodge the tree was simple, because she couldn't Shunpo sideways. She got up slowly to inspect the damage, the tree was fine, he head was bleading slightly but she felt fine, so she continued.
100 times, i'll shunpo left to right, she announced dramatically to the field. she wanted to make the distanceas short as possible, so she had set herself markers, on either side was her water bottle, and her bag. First time she tried it Kaiyo overshot the marker by a lot, she ended up at the other side of the field, and became very thankful she didn't continue to try and dodge the trees. Nevertheless, practise made prefect, or damn close.
100 times, Kaiyo shunpo'ed left to right, on only her 89th turn did Kaiyo land on both markers. An achievement not to be taken lightly. She continued on to her 100, feeling more confident each time, more capable of hitting the markers. at the end of that stint, Kaiyo had hit both markers 16/100 times. She fel proud of this, but decided not to tell to many people.
Okay that was good, better at least, she mused to herself. Although she knew it was begininning to get dark Kaiyo couldn't resist the urge to try the tree's once more.
She readied herself in front of the first tree, she would shunpo past the first on its right then go to the second trees left, brimming with confidence Kaiyo becn to gather her spiritial energy at her feet once more, remembering to move, keep her eyes open, and time the tree. Off she flew, everything around her became a blur, she saw the tree and had a split second to react, she dodged it to the right as planned, the next part was easy, go left a short distance that she did fine. It was the final part of this challenge that proved to difficult for the girl, going forward and right just after the tree, and not as her actions would suggest, going right at the tree.
Kaiyo awoke very cold, with the sun just rising, she sat up too quicklt for own good and her head thumped loudly. From what she could gather the tree exercise was still too advance for the girl, and her head was bleading in two places, covered in two not so attractive bruises. She decided to walk back to the acadamy, knowing what that plan envolved. She didn't return home at night so would be punished for that, she had hurt herself doing something that she was sure would be called stupid, although at the time the idea seemed perfect. Despite these facts, Kaiyo could shunpo a short distance, and keep er eyes open to the most of it.
Well it could have gone much worse

Approved +2 to Speed. (Good quality work =)

Shunpo.....around Rukongai! The idea hit Kaiyo like a tonne of bricks, her speed had been increasing, and her shumpo was getting better, granted she could Shunpo a long distance, or use it more than twice in row, yet, but Kaiyo felt it would be a good idea to practise around Rukongai. With no one to disagree she set off on a leisurely stroll out the the academy, anticipating the speed and thrill she got from using Shunpo.
She finally entered the street, today she didn't have her trusty bag with her, she thought it safer without. Okay i'll run then use Shunpo when i might hit someone, or something, the gril grinned happily at her new rules, okay she cheered, lets do this. She prepared to start, moving one leg behind the other, leaning forward and pushing back off her right foot. She was off, run as fast as you can she encouraged.
Kaiyo had picked midday, possibly the busiest time of day. She ran straight through the street, she dodged left, jumped a chair turned the corner and saw the market. She carried on the same course, jumping over the first stall and flash stepping the next three stalls, the shmpo went quite well she didn't knock into anyone, he only thing that caught Kaiyo off balance was people staring at pointed at the academy student who just used shunpo. She carried on running, she saw ahead an outdoor cafe, she slid under the first table, leapfrogged the next chair and decided to shunpo again, this time she had less success, at the point she used shunpo she was turnung a corner a literal learning curve for the girl.
She rounded the corner into a conveniently placed tree and collided head first with it. Causing to serve as only am inor distraction Kaiyo tried not to stop, she stumbled through the next street, knocking into few people and hitting a few chairs before regaining her stride and this time after passing the corner and jumping over a car (an impressive sight) she used shunpo past the crossing and landed on the roof of a building, her aim was apparanately still shot but she continued nevertheless, on the roof trying not to cause any damage.
Eventually Kaiyo jumped down from the roof, still causing quite a stirr amongst the people out for lunch. Kaiyo ignored the stares and enjoyed the few cheers she was given, still trying not to lose focus though, she hopped from one table to another, avoiding the people out for a midday walk, she decided to this time try and shunpo twice in a row, kaiyo thought it best until she reached the start of a new street.
She spun round the corner and with her first foot on the street she vanished, re-appearing half way down the street and then disappearing again, Kaiyo loved the senation of using shunpo, the world moving so quickly around you and the tingle of your body under the pressure of using such speeds. Kaiyo was on her second shunpo when she decided to try for three, she landed her second shunpo at the end of the street, once again on the roof of a shop, something she would have to work on obviously, one foot on the roof and she was off again, three in a row she cheered. Landing on the top of a very high tree was not part of the plan, this didn't matter much though, Kaiyo was far too pleased with managing three Shunpo's in a row. From her tree she noticed some people had heard her cheer and were looking in the sky for her, Kaiyo giggled slightly, then preceeded to duck when they looked in her direction.

Approved + 1.5 to Speed.

Kaiyo sat in that tree for a long time, for two reasons; number one: she loved the view, numbver two: she wasn't sure how to get down. However she did know how to get down when she watched a man come out of an alley way and kidnap a young boy that was walking along with his mother; out of pure instinct Kaiyo jumped out of the tree.
The boy had been wandering alond the street holding his mothers hand, she had just turned into a shop window to buy her bright eyed son an ice cream, when the man who had been watching the pair, began running at the boy, looking as if he would run straight past, instead, in his stride he picked up the boy and continued running.
Mid air she decided to Shunpo down to the man, she landed just behind him, he was knocking people and things over with the boy tucked under his arm, wriggling as much as he could and screaming for his mum.
Kaiyo landed flat on the ground and began her persuit, she was right behind the kidnapper, and he knew it, he tried to stop he by throwing table and chairs behin him, Kaiyo kept her senses alert and dodge ducked or dived over whatever the man tried to throw at her. He took various sharp turns along the street in atempt to lose Kaiyo, she was following him but she had to guess where her was going. First he turned left, then right, then left, left then right, followed by the most recent right.
Kaiyo guessed at the next turining he would skid to the left at the last minute, she hung back a bit and hopped from a nearby bin onto the rood of a building, true to her prediction the man turned left and Kaiyo jumped down, still not quite getting the timing right Kaiyo landed reight behind the man; he looked at her in shock and continued running along the street. Kaiyo could reach the boy he was carrying but she needed to stop the man without hurting the boy. She touched one foot on the ground and appeared in front of the culprit (a perfect Shumpo, but she would savour that victory for late), he was so shocked to see the girl appear in front of him that he skidded out of control in an attempt to not hit into Kaiyo. The man faceplanted the grounded and skidding a bit further along it on his face, the boy he was carrying scrambled free and ran behind Kaiyo for protection, the man stood up and snarled at Kaiyo.
From behind her she heard the screams of the distraught mother, Kaiyo turned around and watched the young boy run into the arms of his mother, a sight she couldn't help but smile at, the woman repeatedly thanked Kaiyo for her help and carried her son home. During the this time the kidnapper had run away, Kaiyo thought about leaving him, but changed her mind when she thought of the face of the young boy while she was running after him.
Kaiyo jumped straight into the air, trying to find where he had run to, hopping along the shop rooftops Kaiyo finally found the man, he had stopped running near a cafe, where he kept looking around while trying to act casual. Kaiyo decided to take him to the nearest Shinigami station, sure he would be put into the local jail.
She took in a deep breath from her rooftop, leaned forward, and watched as everything around her became a single blur, noises meshed into one singular hum and lights into one rainbow of colour, she landed both feet on the ground a few metres behind the man, picking up the nearest heavy object, which happened to be a bin lid, Kaiyo smacked the man around the head with it; the man woke up in the company of 3 shinigami, and with a very nasty bruise on the back of his head.
Kaiyo headed back to the academy at a very low pace, her muscled seized up with exhaustion, she slumped back to her bed and fell asleep, generally pleaced with the outcome of the day, she helped the young boy, managed 3 flash steps in a row, and got loads more practise chasing the kidnapper.

Realy sorry but your limited to a +.5 for this, it deserves a 2 but well rules are rules. Anyways Approved +0.5 Thread locked as you have 10 in speed, well done.
