She hummed slightly, moving her wrist very slowly, intricately, in slow motions. Slow circular motions. She allowed the circles to get bigger, and move much faster. Kind of like a lasso might. She watched it, and got an idea; her eyes lighting up with pleasure. "Alright!" She said, "I think I know how I can do this!" She told herself. Turning back towards the tree, she measured with her eyes the distance and stepped forward, three steps. Cracking her wrist, she flipped her wrist over, flicking it side ways, the whip cracked at the tree, and went limp. She needed to add force behind it. That had to be what was wrong, she figured. So she took another step forward and let her wrist go limp again.

This time she flicked her wrist harder, the whip crackled; and flew towards the tree. She watched it, and it seemed to move in slow motion, but in truth it was going fast. Her eyes widened, the whip was going around the base of the tree, and latching on. At the last second, before the whip would go limp, she pulled! The whip tightened around the tree and held. She squealed loudly, letting the whip release the tree and bouncing up in down with pure joy and excitement! Yes! She clapped her hands together, still holding the whip. "It's perfect!" She giggled and I'll name it, she paused to think, tapping her chin. "Something swirl. Vanilla swirl? Coconut swirl...Cinnamon Swirl!" She was thrilled. "I'm so awesome!" She congratulated herself. "Ohh, I wanna make another one." She giggled. "What to do this time?"

Thinking back to learning Swift Style, she considered working up her own elegant attack. Something agile, and quick; not to mention cute. She considered for a moment, while looking around; what she could do that would be all of those things wrapped into one. At first nothing came, and that discouraged her; but upon noticing a loose looking rock. She got an idea. "I could toss this rock at people!" She said rushing over to the rock and wrapping her arms around in protectively. She struggled to try and lift it. "Come on, rock!" She said to the rock. "Come out of the ground, so that I might throw you at unsuspecting people!" She announced.

She continued to struggle, "Urgg.." She whined loudly, as the rock just wouldn't budge. Switching her motivation, she moved and began to push at the rock. If she couldn't pull it out, she might be able to loosen it, like a child would loosen even more, an already loose tooth. "Come on!" She yelled and hit the rock with a full on punch. Recoiling her hand with a should of "Ouch" She sucked on one of her knuckles. "You know what rock..." She said, mid sucking. "I don't know if I want to throw you at people anymore if you're going to be so difficult!" She continued to suck on her red and bleeding knuckle; as if the sucking would stop the pain, or blood.

She sat down, and considered again; what could that would be so elegant and perfect as to be a move, she would patent and call her own! "Hmm..." She murmured looking away from the rock. Then when she thought it wasn't looking, leaping on it, and pulling as hard as she could. She situated her feet on the rock, and used her strength to pull. "Come out!" She screamed at the rock, pulling again; this time it released and she went flying back with the rock. Screaming, as she went flying back, she used her feet to flip the rock over her body, and landed, skidding backwards. "That was..." Her eyes were welling up. "So Cool!" She shouted bouncing up and down with pure joy.

Kale took a deep breath, and stretched her arms out. She wanted to try it again, perfect it. She had an idea of how it would look. She looked to the rock and glared. "I'll deal with you in a minute!" She announced and looked towards the nearest tree. "I think I have an idea." She said quietly to herself. She approached the tree. It would be a quick move, she would flip over the opponent, push her foot into their back, and used her speed and strength to send them flying over her. She faced the tree, and imagined what it looked like. Nothing would go flying, but she imagined a back. Where would be the perfect spot to hit. It was much like, kicking; she noted, finding the weak point, but this time, finding the spot that would do the most damage, get the most 'air'.

She took a breath, finally getting the angle she wanted to use. She took a couple steps back, and judged the distance. Mind you, Kale might not seem like the type to work things out, based on her happy attitude, but she did want to stay alive, and that meant she had to be ready to do what needed to be done, not screwing up. She started for the tree, picking up speed as she ran, she had to get enough speed and enough distance. She would want to be able to stick the dismount when she flipped the opponent and to do that she would need to get enough speed, and angle to pull it off. Upon getting closer to the tree; she hit the angle and ran up it...

Pushing her foot into where she imagined the middle of the person's back, she pushed backwards as fast as she could, she needed to do this with something heavier. Leaping backwards, she stuck her landing and grinned. She could do this. She looked towards the rock. "Perfect." She murmured to herself and started running for the rock. This time, however, instead of running up the rock, she flipped over it, pushing her foot into the 'middle' of it, and grabbed a hold. She'd grab the person's shoulder, that would give her more leverage. Pushing she let out a "Haaa" and leaned backwards, the rock went sailing over her, and into the tree smashing. She landed, skidding backwards slightly; amazingly keeping her balance.

Straightening herself up, her eyes got large and she took a deep breath. "That was wicked!" She screamed into the otherwise silent area. She punched the air and bounced around. "So great! It's got such a punch!" She grinned. "And I look so cool doing it!" She bounced back and forth, glancing towards towards the broken rock. "Like adding Paprika to something." She murmured. She was so good at coming up with names, it seemed. "I'll call it..." She paused. "Paprika Kick..Attack, Shot..." She was questioning herself. "That's it!" With another punch to the air, "Paprika Shot!" Kale almost did a little dance of pure pleasure. She was still a little tired; and she had promised her Captain. Captain. She laughed at the thought, that she would return soon, so Kale headed back to the docks.

Returning to the East Blue; Kale sighed and looked around. Taking a deep breath; She was happy to be home. Finding a spot where she could be alone and train, she decided to come up with some new moves. All her own kind. She pondered a moment, what did she want to learn? Tapping her chin, she had it. Pulling Cherry from it's sheath, she cracked her wrist, releasing the sword into whip form. "Something simple. Another quick lashing." She told herself. Yes, that would do nicely. Twisting her wrist she stood in front of a large rock and snapped the whip. It crackled and hit the rock, but nothing really happened.

Kale pondered a moment, maybe she was twisting her wrist at the wrong moment, the wrong angle. She stepped back a moment and moved her wrist up and down, trying to loosen it. This time, she decided she would put more force behind it, maybe add just a touch of arm, instead of full wrist. Sliding her foot back a little to balance herself, she raised her hand and cracked the whip. It connected with rock, breaking a small piece off, but not much. Kale grinned a bit. She had it. This time she pulled her arm back a tiny bit and used her arm to produce force to crack the whip. A large piece of the rock broke off upon the whips contact.

"Perfection!" She announced happily, pulling her arm back again. Once or twice more. She had to perfect the movement, that way in battle it would be natural. Cracking the whip, it connected with the rock, another large piece breaking off. Kale grinned slightly and swung the whip around her and cracked her wrist, the whip collecting back into the sword. "I love you Cherry!" She said excitedly to herself; smiling. "Alright," She announced to herself. "What else do I want to be able to do?" She sat down to consider her options. A sword and a whip, not to mention, she had a kick a** leg and arm on her.

Kale was quiet for a moment contemplating what else she could do. Her mind strayed back to the kicks she had been taught. Powerful ones, softer ones. She thought about it, and there was the one that was much like a spin. She stood up, and spun around. Kicking the air. "Hmm.." She hummed to herself as she thought about it. "What if I..." She paused a moment and crouched down and spun, repeating the kick as a drop kick kind of version. She considered that; that could work. She would need more speed behind it. She considered to herself the possibility. She paused a moment and thought about how she could make the move faster.

Jumping backwards Kale started at a run, moving into a quick crouching position and spinning around, kicking outward. At the speed she was going, she almost toppled over, the word, "Balance" echoing in her head. She laughed a bit and kept crouched down. Maybe, a drop kick version wasn't the best idea. She tapped her chin again thinking to herself. Humming to herself, she moved her hips; as she thought. She was dancing to her own music while she thought. Maybe something like a roundhouse? She questioned herself inwardly, still dancing to her own music. For those of you, that wondered; or may have saw Kale; She used to dance around while she cooked; She still does. It helps center her.

As she moved, she lifted her leg, holding it up. She still moved her hips; keeping her balance. Balance, echoed again and she shook her head. "I'm balancing!" She whispered enthusiastically, going back to her humming. After a moment, she let go of the pose and crouched down again, looking around. Getting up, she stepped backwards a few feet and slid a foot back; preparing to try her roundhouse idea. She checked her stance, and shifted a bit. Pushing her hands out to her sides; she took a breath. "Okay, Kale." She whispered to herself. "You know what you want to try here, just do it."
