Usagi: that's true
Tetsuo: How about you? Don't you feel nervous about being in a new environment?
Usagi: I'm not worried about school today, I'll be alright
Tetsuo: I'll take your word for it
Usagi: If anything I'm more worried about you because you haven't attended school in ages
Tetsuo: I'll manage
Usagi: I know you will because you always do

Yukio: okay , okay I understand no need to get all emotional on me so wipe your tears
Shino: ( Sniffs )
Shino: yes upperclassman
Yukio: I want you to do some defensive slides so watch carefully
Yukio: you have to bend your leg in a squat position and move side to side like a crab
Yukio: anticipate and watch the person your guarding and that's all there is to it
Shino: okay
(Shino): so bend in a squat, move side to side like a crab and anticipate what the opposition will do next

Shino: what? A fake!!
( Swoosh)
Yukio: not, bad it's your first time playing but you anticipate my moves and almost stopped me. However, there is always room for improvement. It's your first day after all
Shino: okay
Yukio: that's all I'll be teaching for today
Shino: what! That was only two minutes how can we be done already
Yukio: well you see, I have been training since this morning and my body is aching
