Cio woke up slowly, yawning and streching his arms he got up and quickly put on his clothes, he had slept well, It was his day off after all. he felt kind of tense, he always did after not working out for a while, 'maybe i'll just go down to the dojo for an hour' with that thought in mind he slung his two swords over his shoulders, sprinted downstairs grabbed some bread and told his mum where he was going,
He arrived at the dojo shortly, he was the only one there, it wasn't really a dojo, more of a free training ground, but he liked the name. Cio did a few streches, lifted a glass with his mind and then out came the claws and the warm up really began. He got into a proper fighting position and swiped at the dummy, then he came at it with his other claw back swiping it, he stepped back shook his head then began again.
he stepped forward with lightning speed and caught the dummy with an upper cut up through would would have been the jaw of an actual person, then he retracted his claw and span, while his claw came back out again his other hand came round in a backwards slash across the 'face' followed by his other claw ripping through the dummy.
Cio stepped back, swigged at some water then retracted his claws and slowly drew out his swords, 'now this is where the fun starts'
Cio ran at the dummy, jumped into the air and landed while hitting the dummy with a double slash. he brought one of his swords up in an arc designed to cut a head off while using his other to perform a quick jap to the stomach.
This continued for a while, when he realised how long he'd been, he was sweating heavily. He put his swords away, drank some more water and walked out of the dojo into the burning hot sunlight of the open sky.
