Courtney's FIRST Judo Lesson! (for CantMakeMehTap)

"A little bit at first, just try to focus on something else!" Kasumi would say, stepping across the hot coals, laughin as she did so. "This will toughen you feet, if you can stand this, you could stand on anything! Alright, your turn!" Kasumi said, putting her feet in some water.

Courtney sighed, then gently stepped onto a big coal, it sizzling underneathe her skin. She winced, biting her tounge and resisting the strong irgue to cry out, wanting to prove to her master she wasnt weak. She then put her foot on another coal, letting out a tiny cry and clenching her fists as she stood, closing her eyes and trying to bear through the burning pain.

"You can do it! There's some water here for you at the end!" Kasumi would yell out. "If you need to cry out in pain, go ahead! Everybody needs to when they first do this!"

Courtney nodded, then put her foot down in a long step, trying to get it over with quicker. It felt alot better than the first time, her foot adjusting to the heat. She continured down, wincing and crying out every now and then, practially jumping into the water at the end, the sizzling of the water was the best gift ever. She smiled and closed her eyes."I hate you", she teased and laughed.

"Hehe! Thanks!" Kasumi would laugh with her, getting up and turned the grill for the coals off, and sweeped up and put away the glass. "Ready to start your balence/dodging exercise? We stand on logs while Grandmaster Kimberly throws plates at us! The more we dodge, the more food we get!" Kasumi would say, opening a door that led outside.

Courtney smirked at her new challenge and stepped out the water and inspected her feet, they were red and a blister appeared, but she could bear through it."Im not gracefull at all, but I'll try my best", she said and followed the shorter girl outside.

"That's fine, you'll learn eventually!" Kasumi would get on a log and Grandmaster Kimberly came out, with a huge rack of plates. "Good morning Kasumi-chan, Courtney-chan. Ready to start?" Kasumi would bow and say good morning she would then raise up and yell out. "YES GRANDMASTER KIMBERLY!"

Coutney bowed, then snapped back up."YES MA'AM GRANDMASTER KIMBERLY!", she called.

"Alright then...THINK FAST!" Kimberly would yell out, throwing three plates in the same pattern at the two. One above, one below and one to the right. Kasumi would duck, then jump and then shifted her body to the left. "Your turn Courtney-chan!" Kimberly would toss the plates at Courtney.

Courtney watched Kasumi as she got on the log, and was barely balanced as Kimberly began to throw plates at her. She ducked under the frist one, then lost her balance as she ducked, landing face-first into the ground. She laid there for a moment, her ass in the air as half her body with still on the log, the other half on the ground, it looked quite funny."No balance!", I repeated, muffled by the ground.
