The Akako dojo, the place where the best kenjutsu users tested their skills, though Riku used onojutsu and bojutsu  their skills far surpassed his in both and more, it had been a dream to think they would let him train here for the day, even just to test the newcomers in the dojo, he was still going to fight an Akako, he was pumped.

He suited up in his red leather jacket and gredy attire and set off to train, his only weapons were in his body, he would make the weapon that suited his need the most when the training started , he would probably end up using his favored weapons, the tonfas he loved them, he could use a warhammer and a mace but the tonfas were blocking weapons , perfect for his fighting style.

He walked in the dojo to the sound of sword on sword and the ting and tang of battle, this was the best day of his life thus far, he walked up to the Dojo master and bowed and asked him, When do i start and with who The master bowed back and told him to come this way and he followed him into a small room where 10 teenagers stood, as it turned out he would fight all of them one at a time, today got better and better...

He pointed at the first teen, whilst saying This is your first oppoant, Kilro, a beginner in the way of the Tachi, you know what that is. Now Kilro he will be using all his strengh now fight! Just as he finished saying it the teen drew out a long curved blade, almost four foot blade, and got ready for the fight, This was when Riku used his weapon making jutsu and created a waist high, 3 foot long metal pole that took the form of a hanbo. the teen was shocked momentarily but then went on the attack, swinging his blunted sword at his head in a overhead chop, Easy he then swung his hanbo at the wrists of the kid and knocked the sword out of his hands and causing him to scream out in pain, He then spun the hanbo at the left kneecap, dropping the kid to the ground and grunt in pain.

Youre showing me what your doing get up and keep going the kid then stood up and picked up his Tachi and went at him again, this time with a sideways swing, going for his ribs, Riku brought up his hanbo and blockedd the sword, sending a jarring up his shoulder though blocking the blade, he then swung his hanbo outwards making his sword fly to the left, though still being held by the teen it gave him the chance to strike. Riku brought his hanbo up and went to hit the teen in the neck with the end of it. The teen swung his sword and parried the pole and then swung at Rikus shoulder, Riku just barely blocked it with the pole by bringing it sideways and parrying it back. Riku then went into a a leg splits and swung his hanbo at the kneecap and sent the kid to knees he then swung his hanbo at the chest of the teen and sent the kid flying onto the floor grunting while holding his chest.
The master of the dojo nodded and then pointed to the next teen while saying This one uses Three Wakashis at the same time, or he claims so So the next fight began.
Chakra 140/150

Jutsu used:

D rank Hanbo can cause light brusing.

The next kid came up to him and took a short curved blade out of its scabard, though how he could use three still was over rikus head at the moment. The kid then shocked him by throwing the sword in his mouth and drawing the other two blade and using them dual-wield, so he would use his mouth, that would be awkward for the kid to fight. Riku was sorely mistaken on that matter, the kid rushed him with the blade in his mouth and at the same time slicing at his ribs with the other two. Riku jumped to the left and brought his hanbo down and pushed the two swords away, although getting a sharp string where the blade in the kids mouth cu him across the cheek and the bottom of his chin, face flaring in pain as it carved a small cut in him. His next attack came right away, though Riku was slightly more ready for it, he spun his hanbo in a circle smacking the blades and making the teen fly to the left though still standing and still armed it gave him the chance to strike back, Riku brought his hanbo down on the back of the teens head and then spinning and smacking the kid in the left shoulder blade feeling the tees body fly to the ground in a thud.

The kid stood up and grunted slightly but put his sword back in his mouth, and picked up his swords and then chased Riku once again, this time risking a spin into into a triple slice, two blades going at his chest and one at his nose, Riku brought up his metal hanbo, and blocked all three blades with a forward block, driving him back a few feet from the force, This kid has a lot of promise Quickly Riku stabbed the kid in the forehead with the blunt pole and knocked him to the ground grunting, he barely one that fight, these were good kids.
The Master of the dojo then said Good job Riku the next teen here uses a mace, although we use kenjutsu here we let him try his go And in front of him, was a 6ft10 kid wielding a 5 foot long mace in...one hand?

The kid didnt attack like the others, he waited for him to come to him Riku jumped at the tall kid and went for a overhead smash to the top of this giant, No wonder they let him in In respone to the overhead smash the kid swung his massive mace right into his hanbo and made him fly into the wall and smack his back into the bambo wall and shooting through it sending bamboo flying everywhere.
Riku stood up shaking the wood off of him and walked back into the room, looking down where he dropped his Hanbo, and where the...other half was. Haha son of a bitch, you broke my hanbo in two..you massive beast he picked up both halves and decided that he would still use them if he could he walked up to the giant and looked him in the eyes and saw light green happy eyes, this kid loved to fight but not to kill, he then took a pose more similar to Rattan sticks, the tall teen laughed and swung his mace at Rikus left shoulder, Nope im not blocking this one Riku jumped to the right and swung both sticks at the wrist of the mace, the teen didnt even react, this giant was way to strong, he didnt notice the two stick attacks to his wrist, the teen brought up his elbow and smashed Riku in the nose, sending a flare of pain in his face and causing his eyes water.
Riku stood up and put his hands up and called out to the tall kid, Hey, you win i hit you with two steel poles and you just did nothing, but you arent fast, if i had a sword or something sharp it may be a differant story haha good job though He then called out for the dojo master and said He won send the next one up ser, although Riku wasent really sure if they would let him in the dojo for training everyday, for he didnt use kenjutsu he used Onojutsu like himself but he was a brute, and slow but he then wondered who was the next teen coming up.
The next one uses a Chinese Dao, this one is of mine blood and i would like to see how it turns out, Go out Khia

The kid that came out was the spitting image of the dojo master, which the black hair down to the bottom of his shoulder blade and a thin pointed chin and high cheekbones and the determined look on his face. He had a long Chinese Dao in his hand, a slightly curved, 30 inch long blade with a keen silver sheen to it. The teen didnt attack right away, first he very slowly drew his sword then bowed to riku, Riku bowed back and smiled at the moment he had no weapons, that explains why he wasnt attacking, him right away, he laughed and created two tonfas each one filling his palm with a metal handle, he was now using his favorite weapon or weapons, he was very adpet with the tonfa and he knew he would need it if he was to fight the Dojo masters kid, even if he was younger then him the Akako were a tough breed.
The kid attacked the moment he was gripping his tonfas and in a defensive position thus far no words were spoken just the song and talk of battle, there weapons met with a clang, but the thing was Riku had two weapons, a tonfa in each hand he brought he other tonfa upwards and smashed the kid in the ribs the kid grunted and jumped backwards and looked riku over and went back on the attack, this time going for a quick stab to his left breast, right near his heart, although they were only using dueling weapons it was a silent message to him, Riku spun his left tonfa and parried the blade and then spun his other one at the teens wrist, making the Sword fly outwards, but riku wasnt done yet he wanted this kid to learn, Riku then spun the other tonfa into the teens shoulder and then spinning the other one into the kids jaw, sending the kid into the wall and on the floor.

The kid stood up and spat on the floor and went and picked up his sword and went back on the attack swinging here and there, very fast and very angry, Riku brought his left tonfa up and spun it to block the first one and then spun the other to block the second one, he then placed the right tonfa on his forearm and blocked the next slice with his forearm thankfully this guy wasnt as strong as the last one, otherwise that hit may have broken something other then his Hanbo. He decided that although this kid was an akako he was not yet skilled in the way of the sword, he also was unable to control his anger, so Riku going to attack the painful spots of the body, the teen brought a overhead chop to him, though he blocked it with his forearm, and then dropped to one knee and smashed the kids right knee with a spin of his tonfa, causing the kid to yell out in pain and fall to one knee, He then jumped up and spun both tonfas into each side of his jaw, knocking the kid out cold for a few moments, he woke up when riku grabbed him and picked him up and set him back on his feet.

His next opponant was a really short teen, shorter then even him, and riku was in no way tall but the kid was wileding two tantos, though they were small they looked like shortswords in his small hands and size, the kid had a happy look on his face, almost extatic or excited, but something was wrong with the smile, it was to happy, too excited and his eyes were a bright red color in the iris, the moment the dojo master walked out he yelled at the top of his lungs in a hysterical voice, Come on i want to see some blood he finished just as he lunged with both of his tantos going in for a stab to the tonfa wileding riku, he just barely parried both of the blades, though as he parried them each one slcied the sides of his hips, the blades going into the hips, slicing into his flesh like butter and cutting 2 inches into each side of his hips, flaring pain in his hips and ip his sides, What is this why did the give him high quality blades, he could kill me here He grabbed his tonfas and started spinning them, contsantly and fast as to catch the crazy mans eye, he then smashed the kid in the wrists knocking both of the tantos to the ground and then cracking the spinning tonfas into the sides of the short kids head, then stopping the spinning, and stabbed out with them aiming at the kids eyes, and the contact made the kid scream and made Riku slightly cringe at the pain that the kid was feeling but then changed his mind about the regret and spun in a circle and smacked the left knee of the kid making him fall to the ground, and then spinning aagain and hitting the other ankle, making the kid fall to his knees and yell out, though he didnt give him enough time to finish his scream before riku slammed his tonfas onto the head of the kid, knocking him out and making him fall to the ground , WHAT WAS THAT! I thought they were blunted blades he yelled as he looked down and saw the blood running down his hips and onto his legs, this was a test for the new comers but apparently, someone wanted to kill him or just to kill someone, though he was not skilled enough to actually do it, thankfully he had his shitty metal tonfas at the moment, the kid was lucky he did not have his strong ones that could break bone, he was lucky this time, he yelled for the dojo master and bellowed He tried to kill me look he was using high quality tantos, and i had shitty ass tonfas, if he wasnt a newbiew i would be dead, check who comes in man....im sorry im not really mad at you its the pain talking

The master grabbed the kid and threw him into some other men to take them out of the dojo, even though he was being taken it didnt heal Rikus wound and he wondered if he would still be able to test the other kids or if he would have to go to the hospital, he would probably just bandage it up himself he could. The dojo master called out his name and waved him towards a room with a plus sign over the door, ahh they obviously had a first aid room here it only made sense and would save him some time.
In the room they lead him into there was a man in white scrubs and already had cloth and balm, Riku told the man Hey Hey i just need the bandage, none of that other stuff im not a big fan of medicine the man gave him a confused look but continued on his job, he started to wrap rikus waist with a soft white gauze, wrapping around and around, causing him some annoying pain due to the pressure being applied to his waist and the feeling of fresh blood running down his hips, he wondered how long it would be until he had to change the bandages due to the dried blood and possible infection, he would probably just end up going to a med ninja or something of the sort.

after the first aider finished his wrapping and tied up the wound, he looked down and saw the white bandage start to turn pink from the blood, these were very deep cuts, deeper then he thought they were, the first aider explained, These are nasty, they are almost 3 inches deep on side, you gotta be careful he said as he walked off to bandage up someone else, and Riku went off to talk to the dojo master, hopefully to get an apology but he still doubted he would get one , these were honorable men not soft ones but riku doubted that he would let him continue today due to the wounds riku would be of almost no use in training the new comers, he would probably end up falling over in pain or something while in the middle of the fight and getting more injured.

He walked into the main room and saw the other few kids that were waiting to go into the sparring room, one had a katana in each limb, on in each crook of his knee and on in each crook of elbow and the other in his mouth and each hand. There was another one with a massive sword taller then he was and another holding a kanabo on his back, riku was slightly downed when he saw the 6 swordman one walk into the room and start to spar with the dojo master, who hadnt even decided to see him out after his near death experience. He walked out of the building looking up at the midday sun, thinking to himself Midday i got here in the morning this is stupid i was planning to be here all damn day but its only midday, son of a bitch haha
He took his leave of the building of the Akako and started on his way home, for it seemed that he wasnt going to be training anymore today, he was going to go to a buddys house or something, it seemed that the universe gave him a day off.

He walked down the dirt road on the way back to the main area of Kumogakure, though he was getting slightly tired of the walking, due to his two new wounds, he then decided to leave his tonfas that were on his back due to the heaviness of them and that he just realized how much blood he had lost, also the fact he was not going home to train anyway, so he could just make more when he needed more. He jumped off the normal kumo road and ran through a game trail that lead to his house hidden in the woods of Kumogakure.
