Training montage (Ability training)

Gilles had returned back to the woods near the city in order to train and work on some new abilities that she was working on. All of this would take quite a while as she would have to spend several weeks working on all of these moves. She would need to become stronger in order to have a upper hand in the upcoming battle, once again surrounding herself with the silence of the woods. She would bathe herself in said silence for a couple of hours before getting to work.

She would stand up and start to do some image training. He idea was that she would build up her blood in one of her fingers in order to build up the pressure in said finger. After building up the pressure she would cut her fingers causing the force from the build up to rip off the rest of her finger shooting it at her target like an arrow. She would spend several hours just imagining this in her head. She would try to figure out how much blood to build up and how much to cut before she would actually begin practicing this. Once she was done with he mental practice she would then try to put it into practical use.

She would hold her right hand up and start trying to build up her blood inside of her pointer finger. She would have to imagine sending more blood into it than the body normally would. Imagining this was the only way she could think of actually sending her blood into that finger. She would keep imaging this for a couple of days, taking breaks to eat and rest. After several days she would finally begin to fill the pressure in her finger as the blood piles up.

She would add the next step now grabbing a knife that she brought with her and goes up and cuts a finger a bit. Some blood would squirt out but nothing else would happen, she would clearly have to build up more pressure before hand. She would let her pointer heal and move to her middle finger. She would start building up pressure making sure to make it a lot more then before till it seems like the finger is actually swelling up a bit. She would do another shallow cut and the series of events was just about the same as before but this time more blood would squirt out than before. She would move to the ring finger building up the blood pressure again, this time she would have to cut a whole lot deeper into the finger this time. She would take the knife and swing it down onto her finger cutting half of it off cutting through some of the bone. The blood build up would rip the rest of the finger off causing Gilles to shout out in pain. The finger would fly forward before it lodges itself into the tree. She would walk up to it and retrieve the finger ready to try out her next move.

The next ability that she would work on was probably going to be quite a bit more difficult. This ability would require reattaching limbs or appendages that have fallen off or got severed off from her body. She would need this ability in order to reconnect the fingers that she will lose from her finger pistol moves. This way it would still be risky for her but she would at least have a way to still use her fingers if she is able to find them. There is still a big risk that she wont be able to find her fingers or that they will be unable to be salvaged.

She would take the finger she shot of and examine the bloodied end of it. It was covered in blood but you could still see all of the bone, muscle and other ligaments that were severed off from the finger shot. She would also look at the other wound that was on her hand where the ring finger used to be. If she could figure out how to put these two pieces together as close to perfect as she can then it would be that much easier to use her manipulator abilities to reconnect the missing pieces. She would then take the finger and begin to try to match it with the stump like it was some kind of jigsaw puzzle. The normally addled mind was currently try to pay close attention to every jagged edge and every line and bump. This would take about an hour or so trying to figure out how to match it up till she would finally get it figured out and smiles triumphantly as she holds it together. Hopefully she would be able to figure out how to connect the pieces together quicker when she actually needs it done is a field of battle.

Next she would try to figure out the re connection part wondering how to get all of the individual cells to reattach to each other. She could try to force the cells in her hand to reattach to the cells in the finger but that probably would revitalize the cells in the finger. She decided it would probably be best too create some type of substance from the wound itself to work as a binding agent to hold the limb and wounds together while it also helps the cells heal and re connect as quick as possible. She would spend several hours more tying to create the substance hoping to make it before the cells in the finger completely dies. She would finally create the substance and hold it to her finger for about an hour before she finally began to notice that the finger was healing and soon all that there was left was a ring shaped scar all around her ring finger which she thought was amusing. She would spend the next couple of days chopping off her fingers with the knife then reattach them over and over. The pain was excruciating but she enjoyed the pain so it didnt bother her that much. She would finally cut off her whole hand and find that she was able to reattach it in about the same amount of time as the fingers. She would smile moving to the final ability.

She was now moving on to her final training excited to finish this and lead the attack on the guard headquarters for the city. This Manipulator ability she was going to create was just as tricky as the the others were. She would be creating springs out of hair around her legs and use that to shoot like a cannonball forward to ram her head into an opponent. This would create a new ultimate attack for her since she could not always rely on the flaming sword attack. She would smile eager to learn how to make this ability actually work.

She would move the fingers on her right hand first before doing anything. This was to make sure that her previously severed hand still had full motor control and functional capabilities. She would smile and go to start learning her new and final move. She would begin to try to make springs appear around both of her legs. She had used limited control of her hair before but have never tried to form it into a complicated shape like a spring. Closest to it was wrapping the hair around her arm to form it into a hardened blade. The spring was a lot more difficult though. It had to be a specific amount of thickness to make sure it had the perfect amount of springiness. If it was too thin the hardened hair would probably snap or fracture and if it was too thick then it wouldn't be able to bounce as much as it needs to. She would practice with this over and over trying to get the right thickness and prehensile strength out of it. She would spend about a week before she was able to get it right.

Next she would focus on trying to actually utilize the attack. She would create the spring constructs having the hair surround her legs and forming and hardening into bars that would form into a spring like construct. SHe would then test the springs by bouncing up and down before jumping around all over the play. It would take a couple more days before she was able to get use to the movements of the springs. Next she would crouch down having the spring completely scrunch up together building up pressure and potential energy inside of the construct till she releases the energy causing her to bounce forward with great momentum. She would fly forward and then fall as she lands on all four limbs like a cat. She would try again this time aiming at a tree but missing. This would take a couple of days till she got it done right. SHe would finally hit the tree after all of the training and laugh triumphantly. She had finally gained the powers and skills to attack the guards. She felt that she could end up handling anything that they will throw against her. She would head out of the forest and to the town in order to reunite with her gathering.
