We have added a few things to the requirements to power and ability upgrades. Be sure and read the details in the most recent update when you request a new power / upgrade.
Well, its the weekend here at MHS. Wouldn't it be great if all schools started on a Friday for the first day of school. What a way to start off. You get a weekend right after your first day. Well, this is because we are done with the first day of class. How so you ask. As you only went to one class. yes, but I am sure that doing the same thing for each class would get boring. So the one class you experienced is basically how all the classes are going to be.
Teacher posts role. Day gets started, end of class happens, everyone goes to their next class, or home..
Well, ezboard still hasn't confirmed anything on a final date when everything is changed over to Yuku. And we are working on what to do next. We all want user friendliness after everything is changed away from Ezbaord, and we are trying everything we can to ensure that we have just that when we are at a new board hosting site.
We have a guest book. Take a look. If you haven't taken a look yet, be sure and do so. ^_^

Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
Jun contuines to train, moving around the track while punching and doign spin kicks once in a while. He seems to be moving slow, this is mainly because he is giving the use of his chi a break and just working his body now.
" interesting "
Is all he says as he notices X-oshi. He was not worried about the little man. He could handle him self easily enough. Only select teachers gave him any worries in his state.
Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
X-oshi continues in his efforts to move faster. And more fluid.
X-oshi decides to take another trip around the pool.
This time X-oshi is moving with all his speed put into this run.
As he finishes that set. X-oshi moves to the punching bag. And begins his prvious excercise once more. e punches the bag, as fast as he could, kicking as fast as he could. Punching and kicking it once, was actually five times. Everytime he did so, his count was going higher. Moving around the bag, he tries to shuffle his feet more.

Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
He just starts working out, doing 8 coutn body builders. He moves and works faster and faster at it. trying to see how fast he can do. he was just trying to build up his strength.
" faster "

Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
Flojo came into the area of the gym Xoshi was training in, not on purpose, but merely because he was on his way to the gravity room to train. He was wearing his normal "MAXIMUM" karate pants and sleeveless tee with an obi. It had been a really long time since he'd last worked out in here, but that would change. He would soon become very acquainted with the gym.
He walked over to Xoshi, clearly another martial artist. He was moving quickly, hitting the punching bag for speed rather than strength, a sensible thing to do. But he was faster. He had yet to see anyone at his level in this school since returning. He knew there were a couple, Alex Summers and Merciah Forigaln, for example, but he hadn't seen them at all.
"Nice technique," he commented from behind, watching Xoshi strike, "trying to build up speed, I take it?"
Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
x-oshi turns around a little to quick. As if he was taking speed not, training for speed. A bit sweaty to say the least, he had sweat dripping from his brow. And his face was glowing with the lights of the gym.
"Huh, Ohh yeah, I need to be faster, and more agile. I got the strength down, but I don't want to take five hits to my one. It's pointless to even fight."
X-oshi takes a practice stance.
"I guess, speed determines the winner in kung fu."
X-oshi throws a punch as fast as he could.

Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
watching flojo enter the gym, he contuines to work on 8 count body builders. His brow has sweat beading on his brow. He takes in details of the man. Trying to calculate what his powers were from looks.
" interesting "
He spins up and lands on his feet, moving slowly over towards the pair. He slides his hands into his pockets as he appraches. He was relaxed at everything he did.

Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
"Excellent point," Flojo replied, "but if you want speed, you should try the gravity room. When you can learn to do this under double gravity, you get damned fast out here."
Flojo closely examined him. This guy looked like a match for him, not someone to be taken lightly. A lot stronger than the guy working out farther away, who Flojo noticed had also checked him out. Interestingly, this other guy had more ki than normal. Perhaps another with qi gong skills. He remembered back when he was the only one in this school who knew what ki was.
Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
Smiling lightly he moves over towards the pair. He could sense the chi in the one he did not know. He was curious as to what the man could do. He figured it would be interesting to find another chi warrior here. maybe worth his time to spar with. Might him release the rest of his chi.
He pulls his right hand out of his pocket and brushed back his hair as he stepped around a barbell on the floor. He had not remembered it being there, but obviously it had been.
Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
"Gravity Room, hmmm I didn't know we had one. I guess I recreated the gravity room with that pool. I spent quite of bit of money for it but it is coming in handy though. You should practice with us. I think it would be good. Yeah, go try out the pool. I got extra towels and stuff."
X-oshi points to his bag that had been sitting on the far side of the pool area.
"Though if you don't wanna do it then I got you."

Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
Stepping up next to the two he smiles lightly and listens to X-oshi. He eyes the pool having already tried it, he knew it was nice. What was that he had heard about gravity chamber. He could use that. He loosk around the gym at the couple other people there. He sighs lightly and looks back to the two wondering.

Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
"I'll give it a shot," Flojo replied, grinning. It couldn't be too hard for someone who trained regularly under three times normal gravity, but hey, who knew? He connected the strange sled to himself, took a deep breathe, and jumped under the water, clothes and all.
He then began walking slowly, pulling the sled, in way of a warm-up. Then, he concentrated, and a flame of glowing blue ki burst into being around him, and he ran across the bottom of the pool. This was obviously no normal water; it was far to resistant to motion.
He continued running until he noticed something odd - he wasn't running out of breathe, even though he'd been holding it. He was in good shape, but not that good. He stopped the ki flame, unhooked the sled and jumped out of the water. He stood on the edge of the pool dripping wet, then burst into a ki flame again, flinging water off his clothes and quickly drying them with heat.
"That's not normal water," Flojo said to Xoshi, "is it?"
Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
He watches and smiles lightly. He was impressed with this one at least a little. He wondered what powers were his. He would have been disappointed if any less came from a man with that much chi. He wondered if he could get a match with him some time, but not now. He figured it would not be good to do it now. He shurgs lightly, thinking he could do it if he tried. He was interested in this man. He stood out amongest most men here. He would have to work on getting to know the man.

Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
"Yeah much like your gravity chamber this works. Yeah, it ain't normal." X-oshi waves off the pool in a passive manner.
"You went through it pretty quick. Ya know what im saying."
X-oshi looks at Jun who had joined them.
"This is Jun, you know him right."

Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
He bowed lightly to Flojo being proper. He had seen the man a few times. Each time he was impressed by him. He still wondered if what he knew of him was true or rumors. He was not one to bring up topics of that such if he could keep from not. He stood up stright and smiled lightly. He held out a hand for a shake.
" greetings again "
He sounded almost as if his sinus' were giving him trouble. He pinched his nose and wiggles it lightly then smirks wondering where that itch had come from.
Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
If at any time one of the group finally approach the gravity chamber, there is the usual occupancy warning on the outside when someone is inside of it already making use of the chamber. Though when they read it, perhaps they have to read it twice to be sure they read it correctly.
Warning: Gravity Chamber in Use
Current Simulated Gravity
Gravity setting: 8 X Earth's gravity.
Gravity equivalant: 1 pound = 8 pounds

Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
(OOC: Perhaps we should go to the gravity chamber...)
"Greetings, Jun," Flojo replied, taking the man's hand and shaking it. That was a little akward for him; he had gotten used to bowing, "I take it you are training too?"
Flojo knew that Jun had more ki than average, and seemed to know a thing or two about kung fu. Xoshi seemed okay too, although he only had normal ki levels. Not that Flojo had expected different.
Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
He smiles and nods to Flojo after the shake or was it a bow? Jun looks over both of them and grins. He rubs his chin lightly and then looks over towards the pool. He wondered lightly about weither he could take Flojo into teaching him a little of his Chi technics. He would be willing to teach Steel skin in return. but he would have to talk about that at a different time.
" i heard you mention a gravity chamber. Could you show me too it. I would like to use it and try it out. See what i can handle. "
He smiles lightly thinking he might just have found a new place to train at. He grins lightly wondering what gravity each of them would be able to handle. He hoped that he would be able to keep up with Flojo in the chamber. He was not one to like being showen up. Though he did love getting beaten, just because he showed his weaknesses.

Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
"It's hard at first; you'll need to start out at less than double gravity. It's not so much a muscle problem as an organic one," Flojo began explaining, "the human body isn't made to run under high gravity, because all the blood goes to the feet, and the organs are pulled down. The only people who can actually train there under more tha double gravity either have adaptive powers of some sort, or really strong ki. If you'd like, we could go," he finished, motioning to him and Xoshi.
(OOC Note: In case anyone cares, the reason ki/chi people can handle high gravity is because the chi is directly connected to the blood and organs and supports them againse outside stresses; this is how skills like iron body kung work.)
Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
He smiles calmly, not worried about the extra gravity. He knew his Chi and training would let he handle it. He nods to him with a smile. He very much wanted to try out this chamber. He would have to trained under it to get better. It should help him prefect his Tigers Strength technic. He smiles at Flojo as he explains the chamber.
" yes i would like to try it. "
He waits calmly for Flojo to lead the way. He was more then ready for some harder training. He wonders lightly about when and how he would be able to get in there by him self. So he could work on his tiger's strength technic. It was the next level he was wanting to learn. Though he was still working on getting his heal technic, working properly again. So that way he will be able to heal wounds he takes.
Re: Time for some speed training (open if you want)
(OOC:Incase you are thinking that I didn't understand that part. Do not worry. I already figured that out. You're in for an interesting show when you get there.)
If they are curious as to whether someone is in there and actually attempting something so stupid as to try the chamber at such a high level or if the chamber is somehow malfunctioning, one of the few small portals allowing a distorted look into the chamber will allow them to see that the chamber is actually in use. Though inside is not some person running around working out. Not even does it appear that whomever is inside is moving. The form of the person though, amazingly isn't flat on the ground as though their insides had been crushed under the massive gravity. It simply appears that whomever it is (as they are to far away from the thick plexiglass to accurately be identified), is simply sitting still with their legs crossed and their hands on their knees.
