Since everyone was already picking up rocks he to decided that it was his turn. Making his way to the stones he bent down a bit and let his fingers run over them, moving from rock to rock getting a sense of how big they where. He finally stopped at a good sized rock, probably about 10-15bls, he bent down and grabbed the rock, pulling it close to his chest and used his legs to lift it off the ground so he wouldn't hurt it back.
"Nnugh"
He grunted a bit, it was heavy but he stood up and held onto it.

Fukurou almost dropped the rock several times, but mentally counted to ten, giving Ruu and chance to move out of the way, and figuring that that was how you got better at these types of things was to push yourself to all of your limits and then beyond them. He completed his mental count out loud, "two... One...." and then held it for a two seconds more before finally dropping the stone. He and Ruu stood there panting from the work out in unison. Kitsi, sitting on Fukurou's shoulder, simply rolled his eyes at the two of them and then seemed to go back to sleep...

Blink's arms strained from the weight, he had no idea how long he was supposed to hold onto this. He saw Fukurou set his down and let out a mental sigh of relief figuring it was alright for him to do the same. He let the stone down with a loud grunt and wiped the perspiration off his forehead.

Fukurou was begining to get a little weary... he thought they were supposed to be learning how to fight in this class, but again, physical fitness was part of fighting, so down he went onto the ground. He crossed his ankles, and burried his knuckles into the dirt - it was the only way which he had ever done pushups... something he had seen his father do, too long ago to even remember what age he had been, for some reason, it stuck with him...

Placing the rock back down he continued to smile, for Taijutsu this wasn't so bad, but he shouldn't get his hopes up to high. Taking a breath and got down on the ground, his legs out so that his toes touched the ground and his arms where perfect with his shoulders.
"How many push ups would you like us to do Gai-sensei?"
He called out in a happy tone and waited.

Blink fell forward and caught himself with his arms. His form wasn't perfect but he didn't know that, it would do all the same. He liked this class, it was simple but it wasn't. It challenged a ninja in basic ways. He smiled and pushed himself up.

Fukurou took a deep breath, this was the part that worried him... "Ok!" he said enthusiastically and began doing pushups till he could no longer feel his arms sting him...

He nodded his head and took a deep breath, slowly he started and soon enough he had a good pase started. His arms and legs started to burn but he wouldn't stop until he was told to.

Gai had them going for about an hour before he stopped himself and told everyone that that was enough. Lee jumped to his feet looking like he hadn't done a thing yet.
Now i shall pair you off. We have an odd number so one of you shall pair off with Lee.
"Hai, Gai-sensei!" Lee bellowed.
"These are beginners Lee so go easy on them. Now. Keagan will go againest Fukurou and Blink will be paired with Lee. Begin when you are ready."
gai said and lee walked over to a more open area waiting for blink to join him and giving him th first move.

Fukurou almost colapsed, but got up and walked to the otherside of the clearing opposite Keagan. His shoulders and arms were burning, but he knew he had to do this. "Keagan san," he said respectfully and bowed to him. When he straightened, he was straight up into a fighting stance. He awaited Keagan's move...

As soon as Gai-sensei told them to stop he fell to the ground panting, his arms and legs burned along with his lungs, sweat covered his body and he grunted as he pulled himself to his feet. Wiping the sweat from his forehead he heard Fukurou respectfully call his name and in turn so did he.
"Fukurou-san"
He bowed as well and took a step back, getting into a stance and waited. His eyes darted around the area as his ears picked up the sounds around him, yet he was once again totally focused on the job a hand. He was waiting...waiting for the right time to strike. A change in breath or a shift in the other's stance would set him off.

Gai was watching Fukurou and Keagan. he was interested to see how they would fight after being so phyically drained.
Lee was waiting for Blink to ready himself.

Blink was covered in sweat. He collapsed on the ground when the push-ups were finished then removed his jacket, something he really wished he had down before the push-ups. His hair was also sticking to his face. He pushed it back and tied it up so it wouldn't get in the way. He gave a bow to Lee and took a fighting stance with a friendly smile.
