Al whined. "We have to run? I haven't ran in a physical body for awhile..." he muttered and waved to Roy. "See you later Colonel," he said and took off behind Edward.
Roy waved back and turned to Yoruichi and Ichigo. "So how far is your training grounds?"
((Are you gonna bring in Mr. Hat and Clogs? XD))

((You bet your ass I am!! Just not right now.))
"A mile and a half, no biggie." Yoruichi said with a casual shrug.
Ichigo's head drooped, "You got to be kidding me..."
----
Once Edward and Alphonse followed Hisagi to the Squad Nine training area, the lieutenant stood there with his arms crossed and a smiled on his face. "So, how was your first bout of exercise?"
~~~
At Yoruichi's training grounds, she had Ichigo and Roy sit on their knees in front of her. She stood over them with a powerful demenor, but a soft look on her face.
"Alright. You two get the short straws, and that's training with me. I'm tougher than Hisagi, so I won't go easy on you."
"I already knew that," Ichigo muttered to himself.
His master glared at him and then turned to Roy with a smile. She threw a kendô bamboo sword at him. "This is your weapon for the time being. Until you can manifest your own zanpakuto, you will be using this."

Edward and Alphonse panted as they slowed to a stop. Al was more out of breath than Edward since Ed had been exercising a lot after their training with Izumi. "You okay, Al?" Ed asked a bit worried.
Al nodded and smiled. "Yeah, I'm fine. It's just been awhile since I did anything physical like this."
~~~
Roy caught the kendo sword and nodded. "Alright..." he said and shrugged. 'I wonder how long it'll take for the three of us to become Soul Reapers?'

Hisagi let out a soft chuckle. "Alright you two, no more horse play. My training is different than Yoruichi's in a number of ways, but we'll both be teaching you the same principles. There are four aspects of Soul Reaper Zankensoki and I will train you in this order: Hakuda, Hohô, Zanjutsu, and Kidô." He then clapped his hands together and rubbed them.
"So, to Hakuda! It's not elaborated upon by most Soul Reapers. Physical strength and skill is determined by this class. Judging from what I've heard, you two can fight hand-to-hand pretty well. So it's settled. As an expert in Hakuda, I'll watch you two spar to get a more general idea on how to train you in Hakuda, are you ready?"
~~~
Yourichi smiled, "Hisagi is giving the same lecture now, but you are with me because I am sure you can handle my training. I'm the best teacher because I'm the toughest. With that being said, I will be teaching you the four Soul Reaper Zankensoki: Hohô, Zanjutsu, Kidô, and Hakuda. We'll start with Hohô. Flash Step is a movement that allows the user to move faster than the eye can follow by collecting and solidifying reishi, or spirit particles, beneath their feet."
Ichigo nodded and turned to Roy, "They don't call her the Goddess of Flash for nothing. She's fast, probably faster than me at my strongest."
"Ichigo, for now you'll be doing what I teach the Colonel. Once we get to Zanjutsu, you train alone, understand?"
"Yes ma'am!"
