       Dance in the mountains

       Deep in the mountains of the east there lies a dojo, the
       mountains around the dojo were treacherous and indifferent, so
       the rule was simple make it to the dojo and you would be taught.
       That was years ago, many such years have passed since the
       teachers and the students that were once inside have left but
       only two remained, students that were taught by two different
       masters had stayed taking care of the gardens, the cobwebs that
       had gathered in its many floors. Today though was much
       different, it was a day that the two had decided to spar, they
       stood on either side of the sparring ring with the rules set
       both of them in their training attire. They looked across at
       each other and merely watched not knowing who was first or who
       was second just knowing that they would prove who was better.

       How many times had his bare feet pressed into the mats of the
       dojo during various training exercises in the last decade? He
       could not tell, but the resounding pounding in his chest let him
       know that this time was different than the others. Today he
       would put years of practice to a test with an equal. Sliding
       left foot forward and bending his knees so his center of gravity
       would be lower the man let out a long breath of air while
       pulling his right arm back to his hip fist balled and extending
       his left so his palm faced his friend.  It was a defensive
       stance, but in his experience those that move first often were
       not capable of making the last move or ever moving again.
       Prepared now for assault in his mind he made plans, if his
       friend was to attack high he would attempt to counter with a
       kick, if his friend attacked mid or low it would be a sweep to
       block with the left hand and a punch to the midsection with the
       right. If his friend attacked from the sides he had similar in
       mind as he had confidence in his ability to move his body to
       follow even the most spry of students of the past.
