"Alright," Zim said as he set up the second bag of coal. He stepped back and squated down slightly with the hammer over his shoulder. He slowly swung his hammer a few times to get his arms undercontrol for the desired angel. He then swung the hammer back and brought it forward, doing as he did before with his hands.

The hammer flung fast and hit the bag hard, Zim spun around on his feet as he tried to maintain his balance with the weight and momentum of the hammer carrying him. A billow of black smoke erupted into the air as the coal splintered and disintigrated inside the bag.

"Good, good," Zim heard as he gained his balance, "This is the first stance, and the first two types of strike. Practice these, and you'll learn alot about how to do these things. Now I need to get back to watching the gates, who knows what those punks have gotten into over there. Stop by when you think you're ready for some more."
