Chapter 6 - Kunren Karada, Tamashii to Kokoro (Training the Body, Mind, and Soul)

Deep in the wilderness, far away from Korin Tower, seven figures hovered in a state of intense meditation. Seated about three feet above ground the Guardians floated in a lotus position, eyes closed, minds linked together as they worked to increase their telekinetic abilities. All around them rocks and boulders began to rise, getting progressively larger as the aura surrounding them grew brighter. Suddenly, their aura flared in a blinding flash, reducing the rocks to sand. When the glare faded the young senshi had returned to their feet and were observing the damage.

"Ohya!"

"Whoa."

"Sugei!! We really made a mess!"

"Totally."

"That is sooo cool!"

"Yeah, last time all we got was little rocks."

"Maybe next time we'll vaporize `em!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"You're wide open!"

Yamcha grunted as an elbow connected painfully with his back, followed by a vicious kick to his ribs that sent him flying across the lookout. His sparring partner for the day was without a doubt the most ruthless of their group. "Take it easy will ya?!" he growled, "We're supposed to be SPARRING not killing each other!"

Debra rolled her eyes, "Oh, stop whining! I didn't hit you THAT hard," shaking her head, the female senshi dropped into a ready stance. "Now let's get back to work!"

"You're evil," he muttered sullenly. He couldn't wait until they switched partners tomorrow.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Ya know, I really think the carnivores taste better," Miraku commented around a mouthful of meat.

Jianu nodded in agreement, her mouth too full to respond verbally.

"They're more fun to hunt too," Takeshi replied, cutting off another hunk of meat.

"How ya figure?" Sean asked, getting himself another piece while handing Chujitsu another one.

Marion giggled, "They fight back, baka."

Sean stuck out his tongue, "Nyaa!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Kienzan!"

"Oh shit!" Debra dropped into a splits just barely avoiding the deadly ki blade. Kuririn followed with a kick to her head which the auburn senshi blocked with her own leg. Kuririn stared in shocked disbelief, how did she DO that? She was still on the ground and her leg was nearly vertical!

Debra chuckled, swinging her other leg to her front, then rolling back into a crouch. "Part of my training growing up included gymnastics and yoga. I can twist my body in more positions than most people can imagine," she added winking naughtily at her friend.

Kuririn blushed bright red as did every other senshi within earshot, they did not need to know that.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today the Guardians were trying something new in their training. Each child was balancing with one finger on top of wooden poles. The poles themselves were 4 inches diameter, stood seven feet high, and were placed five feet apart from each other.

Pushing his orange bangs away from his eyes, Sean began snickering softly. He could sense the others' curiosity and happily filled them in, "This kinda reminds me of somethin' I saw in "The Karate Kid"."

"Wax on. Wax off," Marion intoned, attempting(and failing miserably) to imitate Mr. Miyagi's serious voice, sending all seven of them into a giggle fit.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"You have all surpassed me now. There is nothing more I or Mr.Popo can teach you. Return to the lower world and refine your skills until the final confrontation," Kami addressed his students, Chikyuu's last hope.

"Hai!" the assembled warriors responded as one, their faces set in fierce determination.

"Can I take this weighted shirt off now?" Yajirobi whined, tugging at the navy top.

"Show some respect!" Debra snarled, cuffing the back of his head. Over the last seven months he'd done nothing but whine at every phase of their training and the female senshi had had enough. The other Z senshi sweatdropped and pretended to ignore the two, sometimes it was best not to get involved.

Watching the others leave, Debra sighed inwardly, she too would have to leave but there was something she needed to know first. "Kami-sama . . . about Jianu-chan."

"She and the others will continue their training with me, there is much I need to teach them about the spirit realm in order for them to be proper Guardians. You cannot be here when they return."

Debra nodded sadly her blue-gray eyes shimmering with unshed tears, "I know. But I miss her, " she lifted her gaze to the Namekian god, "Please tell her that her father and I love her very much and that I'll see her on the battlefield." With that the auburn haired senshi turned and blasted off, not wanting either of her former teachers to see the tears that had begun to flow down her face. It was time to go home.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Far away from both his wife and elder daughter, Tim Kreiger stretched his consciousness out to touch his loved ones. Jianu was embroiled in a fierce sparring match with one of her new friends, her joy and excitement washing over him like a tidal wave. Pulling back before she sensed him he smiled softly to himself, his little girl had grown so much. Reaching out again, he searched for his wife and sighed inwardly, she was worried about Jianu again. ~Hey sexy.~

~Hey,~ she replied, her mood lightening somewhat at the sound of her husband's voice in her mind.

~I just checked on our eldest. She's doing fine and seems to be having a great time with her new friends.~

~I know. Her ki has increased enormously since she ran off.~

~Quite the little powerhouse we've raised, ne?~

A soft chuckle, ~Saa, that she is.~

Tim grinned and leaned back his chair, ~Is it me or are you getting closer?~

~Yep. Say is Ana-chan with you?~ Debra asked, wanting to hear from her baby girl.

~I just put her down for a nap a few minutes ago. Do you want me to wake her?~

~Iie. I should be home before she wakes.~

~Good. Then you'll have plenty of time with her before bedtime,~ Tim's grin which hadn't faded during their conversation turned downright predatory. ~Tonight you're all mine.~

Debra shivered and grinned herself, ~You promise?~

~Absolutely.~
