Coming out of the dojo, he decided he would get better at firing off his kidou. He went outside and got a target, then went and stood quite a distance away.
First he pointed at the target and in a half whisper said, "Hado three, Crimson Strike." The shot sailed off towards the target and was a hair short. Looking around he noticed that no one was looking at him so he let out a small sigh and then pointed once more, and in a little louder of a tone said, "Hado three, Crimson Strike!" This time he hit the top of the target and made a small hole.
He was pleased that he hit the target on his second attempt, but thought that if he was to be able to use in combat he had to be able to use with out fail.
He sat there, making a few more shots, each time getting closer to the center and finally called it quits, cause he was starting to get tired. He walked up to the target, and brought it back, and then left the grounds.
