Ace laughed at that. "Then what am I thinking, right now?!"
"Something that deserves a good smack to the head, that's what!" Roshi said, grinning still. "I may be old, but i'm not crazy!"

Ace laughed again at that. "Okay, I'm a believer!" he said. "You certainly do know things..."
"You bet your socks I do!"

"Anyway," Ace said. "About the Kamehameha Wave...?"
"Right," Roshi said. "Sit down, this will take some time."

1.
Ace sat down as Roshi instructed, watching as Roshi himself did the same.
"Alright. For this technique, control is the name of th game."

"The motions for the attack are simple enough, at least in the version Goku used long ago..." Roshi said. "My original motions are a little more complex, but the end result is almost identical, so that's merely showmanship."

Ace nodded. "So Goku learned the Kamehameha Wave from you?"
Roshi nodded. "Yep. Rather, he saw me use it and then figured it out almost immediately. A few others did, too."

"Wow... That's impressive," Ace said.
"Yeah, it was!" Roshi said. "Damn near gave me a heart attack from surprise, but it was impressive."

"So...the actual attack...?" Ace asked after a moment.
"Hold your horses, sonny! We'll get there!"

Ace flinched, but just nodded. "Alright then..."
"Now... Focus, and energy control are key, otherwise you won't get anywhere with this attack."

"And above all else, you have to have enough energy gathered up, or else the attackwill just fizzle out and do nothing at all!"

Ace blinked. "Wow... It sounds kinda complex, when you explain it in all this detail..."
Roshi grinned. "Boy, let me tell you something..."

"If you explain something in enough detail, anythign can become complicated. It's just a fact of life," Roshi said. "And nothing will change that."

"Well...that's true enough, I guess..." Ace said, scratching his head.
"Of course it's true! I wouldn't have wasted breath on it otherwise!"

"Fair enough..." Ace said.
"Right. Now, for the attack itself..." He stood up, and faced the ocean. "In performance, it's rather simple."

"But, i'll break it down and make it especially complex, just for you!" Roshi said, then laughed.
Ace grinned slightly as he stood up himself.

"First, you have to gather your ki together with a little focus," Roshi said, doing just that as he spoke. "And after that..."

"...you have to go through these motions..." Spreading his arms vertically, Roshi spun them around until their positions were reversed, then brought them together.

"Then, when you have your hands together, bring them to your side..." Roshi pulled his hands to his side, and slightly behind his back. "And focus..."

"Ka...me...ha...me..." Roshi started, a blue ball of energy forming in his hands. "And then thrust forward, and release the energy... Like this..."

Roshi thrust his arms forward, releasing the energy with a might shout of... "HA!!!!" The energy erupted from the old man's hands, shocking even Ace, who hadn't been expecting that much energy.

"That's The Original Kamehameha, boy. No one'll ever get it down as good as me. Now, go on. You try."
Ace nodded, then stepped up and faced the ocean. "Okay...here goes..."

19. Ace brought his hands immediately to his sides, causing Master Roshi to sigh, but he said nothing. "Alright... Ka...me...ha...me..." Energy began to glow blue in Ace's cupped hands.

Ace thrust his hands forward... "HAAA" The energy rocketed forth, flying across the ocean before dissipating into the distance.

"Heh...not bad, right, Master Roshi?" Ace asked.
Roshi nodded. "Pretty good, boy. Now go on...don't you have a tournament to get back to?"

Ace was going to ask how Master Roshi could probably know that, but thought better of it and just sighed. "Alright...see you around, Master Roshi!"

He took to the skies again, and waved bye to Master Roshi, then shot off toward Papaya Island, screaming "WHOO!!!" until he was out of earshot.
"That boy has some serious problems..." Master Roshi said as he walked back inside.

2. Haru would focus hard but only seem to activate his ability to sense powers. He can feel them but can't seem to connect mentally to anyone. "Ok now I must narrow it down to one. It should be easier"

3. Haru focuses on master Roshi trying to communicate with him. "Can you hear me?....Hello!!!" Haru gets a little annoyed but knows he must stay calm to focus better. "I can do this. No sweat."

Haru opens his eyes and walks over to the firdge in the other room. "I need a drink. It should help me out a lil bit. I haven't drank anything since i got here. Just sea water" He found some milk, soda, fruit punch and "...all right! Sunny D!"

He'd pour a glass and sit at the table wondering what Mater Roshi was doing outside. "Hmmmmm" Haru figured that he wouldn't disturb him till he learned the technique. He had to keep getting stronger to compete with everyone here.
