Mario will see that black is calling and answer his comm unit. "Okay sure where should we meet?" He wonders what this is about but figured black will tell him when they meet.

"Anywhere's fine. How about the tallest building in the city?"

"Okay then we can do that." Mario will go to the tallest building in GV whatever that may be and await Black if he gets there first.

Black will make his way to the tallest building in Grass Valley as well.
"Hey man, glad you could make it. Didn't call you away from something important did I?"

Mario looks up slowly "Not really its mostly just a matter of one more clone." He looks over black wondering why he was called here. "So whats up man?"

The tallest building in Grass Valley, I believe, would be the Del Oro or our very headquarters.

well the location doesn't particularly matter I don't think we would be on top of the headquarters.

"Well, it's come to my attention that I haven't really been doin' my share around here" Black answers.
"In addition there's this friend I made during the whole Iruga deal way back. Tryin' to find her and L tells me he believes she's part of Arcana. It's really made me realize how little I've actually been helping everyone fight the good fight" Black lets his wheels drift for a moment before getting back on track.
"So, I'd dig some help in increasing my skill sets at least to the level where I could take my fair share of the work. AND get back to that friend of mine without getting myself or anyone else killed. Figured you might be able to help me out"

"I could help you out sure, did you have anything particular in mind." Mario says finding it odd that Black would come to him to receive assistance and not Fred or one of the trainers in the task force.

"Well" Black thinks for a bit.
"What can you show me in the speed department? Anything to help with speed or hieghts. Maybe some complimentary martial arts"

OOG: I'll note, just to put on the record what I said to Mario, that PCs training each other is fine and indeed I have systemic ways to handle it. In order to determine what players absorb, I look at the trainers' Charisma, Intelligence, Willpower and any teaching skills as well as the mastery and efficiency behind the moves being taught.
I similarly look at the receiving players' relevant attributes, particularly Willpower, Intelligence, P. Ability and anything that allows them to absorb knowledge faster (such as Sharingan or relevant Skills).
Finally, I determine the quality of the roleplaying of both sides and the difficulty and non-trivial nature of the tasks provided for in the training. From that, I determine rewards.
Also, the obligatory joke about Black being in two training threads and all that.

"An excellent idea using someone stronger than yourself to increase your power, but before you can face me I think you must as the cliche goes face yourself." Mario runs through the familiar hand seals of tiger, snake, dog, and dragon before slamming his hand onto the ground.
"Kuchiyose: Edo Tensei" Mario says as three coffins rise from the del oro roof. Iruga, Dakshi, and Naraga step out of the coffins facing black yet one more time on the battlefield.
Mario brings his hand back to his side and says "If you will remember from the manga these creations normally do not die. Some would argue this an unfair test but I think it has its purpose."
The three give black a chance to prepare himself before they strike.

As the coffins raise from the ground Blacks expression goes blank. With a surreal comprehension he watches his friend bust a move that even now seems a bit high up there.
Upon the finishing sentance Blacks expression breaks into a wide grin.
"No fair" he murmers.
In an instant Black has shifted into a lower half-ducking stance, spray cans seeming to spring forth at his command. From there he kicks up the boost dash speeding straight towards Iruga.
"Since when did you get this cool man!"
Black will rush forward and make it appear a straight on attack. At the last instant he will attempt to leap/flip upward and spray Iruga in the face with special napalm spray (while up-side down).

OOG: Will Mario or I be doing the ruling as far as what is effective and what isn't?

OOG: I think I can handle it.
Mario calls out "Ah yes flame is an excellent source of disabling an opponent since the smoke fills your lungs and your nerve endings burn shut, which I must say is very painful but what happens however to an opponent who feels no pain?"
Keeping with what Mario said Iruga is unfazed as he spears outward with a yari upwards toward Blacks legs to in an effort to force him to roll forward into Naraga who is bringing his elbow down and knee upward at the same time which will trap blacks movement and crush his head. Dakshi leaps above Black and brings down a claw to each side of blacks stomach attempting to cut off the left and right avenues of escape.
This trinity of attacks are coming in total from up, left, right, back, and forward. This leaves only downwards towards the ground, but even so that means that he would be crowded on each side by the brothers.

Black will quickly switch out his spray cans for his hooks, hooking into Naraga's still standing leg. With this action Black will attempt to boost-roll into Naraga while pulling him off balance. (Aiming to land on the face or at an angle to not fall victim to the attack, if it remains unbroken).
He will also prepare to whip around and launch an attack on Iruga or Dakshi should they catch up to him quicker than expected.
