The sun was shining through the trees and hit Okita just right that his hair looked like it was...glowing... Somehow Amaya's thoughts had drifted from the competition, Okita was...no...no focus. Returning her attention back to the tree, Amaya pushed the thoughts aside just in time to see Okita hit a couple of the targets. Smirking, Amaya raised her own throwing stars,"That's a good start,"she said in a cheerful voice before stepping in front of Okita. Concentrating on the tree in front of them, Amaya's eyes scanned the various targets before deciding where she wanted to hit. Spinning in a quick, tight circle, Amaya threw the stars, using the extra momentum to her advantage, watching as both stars hit the tree almost simultaneously. One of the stars landed right next to Okita's star, hitting the center of the target while the other landed just next to the center of another target. Smiling, Amaya stood and smirked at Okita,"Your turn~"she chimed before gesturing to the tree, obviously enjoying herself.[/scrolly]

Alright then, it was his turn again. Thus, the game began. Though he did his best, towards the middle of the game, Okita became aware that Amy had more points. It irked him quite a lot, but he did his best to simply enjoy the game. Come on body... he mentally willed his own form at some point, but it didn't help anything. In the end, when all the stars were finished, he found himself sighing and laughing a little weakly. "Guess you win," he said slowly looking towards her before smirking a bit and then starting towards the tree to retrieve his stars. "Kinda seems like I won't ever be able to catch up..." he laughed desite how much that physically irked and worried him. [/scrolly]

To be honest she had stopped counting points and was just throwing her stars at the practice tree without really paying much attention to the targets. She was having more fun simply watching Okita as he concentrated on the tree if she was honest with herself. Amaya was about to reach for more stars when she found that she had just thrown her last two and laughed sheepishly before hearing Okita. Turning to look at him, she smiled and shrugged,"I guess, I stopped counting actually,"Amaya laughed before falling into step next to Okita is he walked towards the tree. She was about to say how much fun she had had when Okita spoke up. Frowning slightly, Amaya punched Okita lightly in the arm,"Hey come on don't talk like that. You're a lot better than you were before...you know that. I had fun Okita, really...it almost felt like old times ya know?"she replied, smiling up at him as she spoke before beginning to retrieve her stars from the tree. Thinking that she had gotten all of her stars, Amaya quickly recounted only to find that she was missing one and scanned the tree. Oh....looking up to see her last star had hit a target that was above her head Amaya nearly deadpanned and reached for it. Ugh...if she wasn't so short and had been paying more attention to where she was throwing the stars this wouldn't have happened....sigh...[/scrolly]

As Amy went on to explain it was just like old times, he forced another chuckle. "Yeah I guess..." he replied before noticing what she was grabbing at. A smirk came to his features before he reached up and snagged the star with ease before holding it out to her. "Now that's more like old times..." he joked softly. [/scrolly]

She was just about to swallow her pride and ask Okita for help when he seemed to read her mind and do just that. Blushing slightly, Amaya took the star from Okita with a murmured thanks and put it in her bag with her other throwing stars. Scanning the area, Amaya sighed quietly...things seemed so quiet...it was hard to believe that there was a war going on outside. Well, at least the village was safe...that was all that mattered in the long run, keeping the village safe from harm from outsiders. Without warning, the image of Jack and Vicki cuddled up against each other came to mind bringing tears to Amaya's eyes. That night had been an almost painful reminder of what Amaya wanted so badly...but it always seemed out of arms reach... Blinking away tears, Amaya shook her head a little and looked up at Okita, smiling slightly. "What should we do now?"she asked in what she hoped was a cheerful voice.[/scrolly]
