Picking himself up after another day of intense training, the young man took refuge under the shelter of a small tree. The mans startling green eyes, wild, intense, and mournful, watched over the lake with a deep lonlieness. Sleep overtook him quickly. As watchful as he had been, he had learned to sleep with the noise of the wilderness. The sounds of deer and other animals never startled him anymore. Waking to the world he had burdened himself with, the man began practicing a simple jutsu he had thought up. He began by focusing the chakra in his legs, and making it swirl.[1/2]
the man began to remember a mesmerizing swirl in the lake water he saw once. It inspired him to create this jutsu. He began concentrating, slowly pushing the swirl past the limits of his own body. Before long he could feel the force of the jutsu working. To test it out, the man at a tree, jumped halfway up it, and then launched himself into the air using his, and the jutsu's full power. The wind swirling around him high in the air, the jutsu holding him relatively still in the air. He can still tell that hes slowly coming back to the ground, but it would take some time from his position. He surveyed the entire landscape as he could not before. Releasing the jutsu, he free fell. He fell faster and faster towards the lake, completely unafraid. The moment before hitting the water, he stared at the reflection. It was at this point, that Katon realized two things, one was that this wasn't a dream, but a memory. Two was that the man this memory belonged to wasn't him.[2/2] Propulsion Technique Learned.
Startled awake, the recognitive dream burned into his memory. Certain fears ran through Katon's head. Katon knew what some of this meant, but there was nothing he could do. Unrolling the bukijutsu scroll, Katon decided to lose himself in training for the day. He began practicing certain steps of the chakra scabbard technique, though he didn't get far. His mind was still swirling with fear and doubt, falling to his knees, his eyes fell to a part of the bukijutsu scroll. He read the tenets of Bushido.[1/5]
Steeling himself, he felt the fear die slowly within himself. His nerves calmed. A few more strings connected in his head. He began memorizing the tenets of bushido. As he felt the last of the fear die in his heart, he felt fire within his soul. His chakra swirled and flowed around his as he raised it. He tried to push the chakra up the length of the blade, but could not get it more than a few inches up the blade, before he began to lose control of it.[2/5]
Katon continued practicing the technique, inching up the side of the katana. Each time he would get a little closer, but the amount was so small he had to keep track of it by measuring the length of the chakra scabbard every half hour or so. After a while, he felt as if he were getting nowhere. He decided to nod off for a few, and see if that helped any. As Katon fell to the darkness of sleep, the fire in his heart began to taper out.[3/5]
Dreamless, his heart thudded in his chest. While he slept, his heartbeat echoed through the unperceptable blackness of his sleep. Waking renewed, Katon picked up his katana, and began practicing again. It came a little easier, but even with all his effort, he could not get the chakra scabbard past half of the length. He continued pushing the technique as far as he could. By the time he sat down to rest again, he had pushed the length of the scabbard to 3/4 of the blade length.[4/5]
Once again, Katon began practicing the technique. Everytime he tried, the chakra scabbard got closer to the tip of the blade. As he inched closer, the crackle of chakra became more apparent. Eventually the technique crawled to what Katon perceived as the tip of the weapon. He continued practicing, trying to make sure that the jutsu covered the entire weapon evenly. As he practiced, he felt the technique getting a little stronger. Katon knew what the jutsu should look and feel like, from the bukijutsu scroll. As the chakra flow of the jutsu increased, he felt it getting ever closer to being completed. Holding up the sword, he let the crackle of chakra fill the room.[5/5] Chakra scabbard learned.
Katon rested only momentarily before picking up the bukijutsu scroll again. Katon studied the turning swallow cut. He began practicing the strikes of the jutsu. He performed them over and over, and each time he did this they became smoother and smoother.[1/5]
The young Namida mediated silently in the corner of the small room. Katon heard faint echos of others in the dojo. The sounds were far off, but resounded of training, and learning. As he listened the sounds began to blend in his head, until he couldn't distinguish any of them. He flicked his katana, and the sound seemed to flood his entire being, and he could no longer hear the far off voices. He picked himself up and began practicing the double cut of the technique, until it felt incredibly fluid.[2/5]
Increasing the speed of the cuts, Katon continued his training. As he tried to increase the speed of the cuts, he lost control of it. As he slashed down, he found he couldn't yet provide the necessary force to so quickly flick the blade back up. Katon did know that he would have to at least reach this far in the technique before he could being learning the chakra steps to it. As he continued, he felt the strain increase in his muscles. The cut became more fluid. After feeling exhausted, and strained, Katon began studying the chakra aspect of the technique.[3/5]
Katon began meditating and focusing his chakra. The diagrams in the bukijutsu scroll were very thorough in explaining this part of the technique, so he was able to begin learning this portion through meditating. Katon knew he would soon begin practicing the technique together, but that was after he thought he had learned enough about the chakra portion.[4/5]
Katon continued with his training into the afternoon. He had began applying the chakra to the jutsu in small amounts. Each time he did this, he saw an increase in the speed of the technique. Before long, Katon reached the techniques limits. The two cuts flashed before his eyes, and as he continued practicing it, his control over himself grew.[5/5] Turning Swallow Cut Learned.

 Shurui Hyuuga
| Kumogakure | Yasashii Arashi | Ninjutsu | Brawler | Chuunin |  +-------------------+ Shurui pulled out his Byakugan scroll and scrolled down to the first A-rank technique. "Of course there would be another add on for this technique...," He mumbled out getting ready for another round of this technique. Reading over the technique he nodded and set the scroll down. Walking out a bit he took his normal stance and watched as his divination field shown brightly on the floor. He the deepened his stance sinking deeper towards the floor, his body twisting more as well. He then watched as around the edges of his field a new ring of symbols appeared. He watched as everything began to turn to it's negative color and slow down significantly. Not expecting that he instantly dropped the technique.
[Hakke Hyaku Nijūhachi Shō 1/5]
As time sped back up shurui looked around and blinked. 'Okay that's new,' he thought to himself. Scratching his chin he pulled out all his shuriken and kunai. Seeing that that wasn't enough he went and grabbed some practice kunai bringing his total to sixty ninja tools. Nodding he tied his ninja wire through the holes in them and tossed them into the ceiling just deep enough so that they would stay. Once more he took his stance and readied himself.
[Hakke Hyaku Nijūhachi Shō 2/5]
As he deepened his stance and watched as the outer ring of his divination field appeared he pulled on the wire making all the weapons in the ceiling fall. Just as the weapons were at his normal height he began the technique. "Hakke Hyaku Nijūhachi Shō," he whispered as time seemed to slow and the worlds colors inverted. His hands shot out at what seemed like normal speed to him but to anyone watching his hands were blurs of movement screaming through the air and throwing kunai and shuriken back into the ceiling. Once he hit the sixty mark he stumbled as there were no more targets to grab.
[Hakke Hyaku Nijūhachi Shō 3/5]
Scratching his head he headed over to the equipment room. Looking around he grabbed sixty eight more practice kunai and shuriken. Walking back out into the room he spooled out more wire and began tying it into the center holes and rings of the weapons before he tossed them into the ceiling as well. Making sure they were all secure he nodded, it was time to try again.
[Hakke Hyaku Nijūhachi Shō 4/5]
Taking a deep breath he let it out slowly sinking into his stance. He closed his eyes as the seal appeared under him. His eyes snapped open as he pulled the wire and watched the kunai and shuriken fall. As they reached head level time slowed and switched colors. His hands shot out grabbing them and flicking them back up into the ceiling. "Hakke Hyaku Nijūhachi Shō!" He said as he slowed down and time returned to normal and everything regained it's color. He grinned. He'd done it now...time to learn the next technique.
[Hakke Hyaku Nijūhachi Shō 5/5 LEARNED]
Looking over his byakugan scroll once again he read the next technique. "Hakke Hasangeki," he said stroking his chin. "So it's just an upgraded Kuushou?" He asked himself quietly. Shaking his head and charging chakra to his palm and arm he watched as the air distorted and nodded. Throwing his palm forward he saw the air in front of him distort for about ten yards before it stopped.
[Hakke Hasangeki 1/5]
Scratching his head he sighed before trying the old method. Pulling his hand back up to his side he once again flooded it with chakra but he added more this time and compressed it some more. He watch as the air distorted around his arm and palm before it sank closer to his skin. Shaking his head he threw his arm forward watching as the air distorted about eleven yards in front of him. Sighing he drew his arm back to his side for another go.
[Hakke Hasangeki 2/5]
Once more he charged chakra to his arm and watched as the air distorted around his arm. He added even more chakra then before and compressed it more. He watched as the distorted air sunk even closer to his skin. Letting loose a breath he threw his hand forward and watched as a blast of chakra escaped and carried up to thirteen yards away from him. He was getting closer only two more yards and he would reach maximum range and damage with the hasangeki.
[Hakke Hasangeki 3/5]
Once more sliding into his stance shurui began to charge his chakra again. Taking in a small breath he compressed it until the distortion was only an inch above his skin. Throwing his palm forward a white haze ejected immediately from around his palm and for the first yard of the attack. The blast traveled for fourteen and a half yards before it came to a halt. Smiling this last try should do it.
[Hakke Hasangeki 4/5]
Taking his stance for the final time he pumped chakra through his arm and watched as the distortion appeared. Concentrating he compressed the distortion until it was literally touching his skin. Taking a deep breath in through the nose he shot his hand forward and released a large concentrated blast of chakra. The chakra extended a full fifteen yards before he tapered off into nothing. Grinning he nodded and picked up his scroll.
[Hakke Hasangeki 5/5 LEARNED]
Reading the next technique on the scroll he smirked, this was gonna be fun. Bringing his his hands to his sides he half closed them and began to pump large amounts of chakra through his arms. He watched as the air began to distort around his arms but did nothing else. Grunting he cut the flow and relaxed before attempting it again.
[Jūho Sōshiken 1/5]
Taking the stance again he put his arms back into position. He began to pump chakra through his arms fast and and in large quantities. This time he saw the air distort and sparks of chakra to pop up randomly but it didn't go farther then that. Sighing he loosened his stance again and glared at his arms.
[Jūho Sōshiken 2/5]
Once again taking his stance he opened his fists half way and took a deep breath. Releasing the breath he took he began to add chakra into his arms. He pumped even more then he had before and watched as the distortion and sparks appeared almost instantly. This time however long flares of chakra began to fly along his arms. Noticing that it wasn't going further he growled and cut the chakra to his arms.
[Jūho Sōshiken 3/5]
Taking his stance and charging his chakra he closed his eyes and focused. Pumping more chakra then he had before he snapped his eyes open and watched as the distortion started. He continued to watch as his chakra sparked and flared before it finally took the shape of golden lion heads. He growled in frustration however as they sputtered out of existence. He smiled however at the fact that he was almost done.
[Jūho Sōshiken 4/5]
Letting out a primal growl he took his stance and surged large amounts of charka through his arms. He then compressed it slightly and watched as it went through the steps: distortion, spark, and flare. "Jūho...Sōshiken!" He roared out in fury as two golden lion heads exploded from his hands and coated his arms and palms in there snarling fury. Grinning he did a few test swings and chuckled. He had master this level of the byakugan, next was to master the fifth stage of kaiser fist.

xxxxKinpaku Isshinxxxx
It seemed things were finally getting a bit more complicated in all of this. The scroll read what she was to learn next, and so, she decided she'd simply emulate the described tactic. Behind closed doors, the raikage settled herself, adjusting her footing ever so carefully.
[1/2]
She settled herself as comfortably as she could. Mindfully checking up on her balance, she grinned. Why not? Kinpaku sped her palm upward in an arc. Of course, there was nothing to meet her force with, but it seemed as likely she'd just done it as properly as could be.
[2/2]
[Mountain Rising Learned]
The next technique to be learned seemed just as interesting as the last. Simplistic in its design, but not by any means something to underestimate considering the strength of the particular style's demands. Again, she began with footing, sliding her heel ever so slightly back.
[1/2]
At this point, she knew how it would go here. Swing. All she needed to do now was swing. Around she whirled, beginning with her kick. Now, the roundhouse wasn't the only thing to be delivered, of course. Once the heel passed her target mark, the blurring form, presented another challenge. Her exposed arm, presenting the double whammy of the technique.
[2/2]
[Double Rock Swing Learned]
It was time for a little bit of work, it seemed. She needed to maintain proper form at this point, and as such, she steadied herself to begin with. Kinpaku made certain to utilize a proper form, as she extended her right arm. Straight forward, her left arm remained tucked in, the technique dictated.
[1/2]
From here, it was a little difficult to determine how it would go. Judging from the vague, it was all in determination. It read that it would usually collide with a chest, but a hook wouldn't work for that very well... Hurriedly, she withdrew the right, and her left flew forward as quickly as she could coax it. It seemed to be right.
[2/2]
[Jishin Kobushi Learned]
This next step seemed a little familiar. Kind of like a previous move she'd performed, but nevertheless, she had to settle herself back into the rock hard footing she'd found. Settling herself into the proper form, yet again, she inhaled to relax herself some.
[1/2]
It was similar in delivery to a prior technique, however the aim for this was not quite send them flying away, but rather raise them into the air, and disabling them quite simply. She flexed her fingers, as she readied herself the moment. Not nearly as powerful as the Mountain Rising, keeping herself in check, she swung. There wasn't much more than a table, but it rose pretty simply.
[2/2]
[Shougekishou Learned]
It was about time she was working on something other than her footing. As fun as it could be to push someone around from one spot, she needed to get something else going. Tokken was the next tactic on the list, and that seemed a bit more interesting than standing in place again and again.
[1/2]
Now, it was read pretty simply for the technique. First, she was to charge, shoulder first. Well... That was all there was to it. Getting herself prepared, she rushed right in. She had to make certain to find herself coming to a stop, so as not to send herself through the wall, and into the sight of others.
[2/2]
[Tokken Learned]
Looking over the scroll again, she couldn't help but laugh a bit. "I know this one!" she laughed to herself. The Mountain Goat Mimic was much like the drunken head butt, without the need to inebriate herself, or even grapple at this point.
[1/2]
Thinking back on how a mountain goat would do things, she decided to adjust the tactic she knew ever so simply. Quickly, she lowered her head, horns at a point, progressing forward quickly a moment. At that very last moment, she pulled her head up, swinging in a ferocious uppercut in that headbutt.
[2/2]
[Mountain Goat Mimic]
The fourth tier of skills was almost complete, and now she had to look over the next one. Primarily, she had to make certain she could drop for a quick sweep of some sort. So to begin with, she started the tactic of making certain she could drop into form properly. Dropping down, she settled into a nice crouch.
[1/1]
The crouch was just fine, which meant she had to move onto the transitional sweep, and the follow through. Primarily, she swung the one time, knocking a chair down. Quickly setting it back up again, the lady dropped once more. Swinging about the kick, she sent it falling, and quickly after that, she whirled about, crushing the chair's back.
[2/2]
[Stone Floor Sweep Learned]
The last of which was a pretty simple bit she was up to now. A little chakra work, to go and create a defensive layer of shrapnel and debris. Well... Looking about the room, Kinpaku realized that she definitely had the debris to do just this for the moment. .
[1/3]
The woman settled herself ever so carefully into a place of debris scattered about the room. The idea here seemed simple. Chakra slipped from her person, into the area, and she noted the bits and pieces rattling about here and there.
[2/3]
Applying even more chakra to herself and the room about her, she watched as it all settled so simply to her. Dust forming a primary coating, on top of which splinters and layers of broken stone settled upon her flesh. One thing was certain, it was easier than she had expected.
[3/3]
[Jagged Armor of Dust Complete]

xxxxKinpaku Isshinxxxx
There was a knock at the door, before the raikage could possibly finish the learning of her newest addition to the taijutsu repertoire. Fortunately, no matter who it was, there was a certain level of deceit to the last practiced technique of hers. It allowed someone to believe she was of the earth affinity. Down, it fell free of the lady's body, while the door swung up, debris piled about her.
"Oh, hello again, Dai," the lady smiled ever so simply. Weariness was still apparent in her gaze, brought about by her training. A konin from the Mist? Outward she gazed, to see the presence of someone she'd seen long ago. The mizukage? No... There'd been some news that may have changed. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Satoshi. Forgive me, but a little mystery's a perk for being the leader of a village." Of course, she laughed, running her fingers through her hair. She made certain to avoid the beige horns, hidden within the mess of her hair.
"A mask for every situation..."
"And a performance for every soul." |

"It is a very valuable bit of free time, Satoshi Hatake," nodded the woman simply. She took hold of the scroll, which he presented, elaborating what she assumed, to be the general details of the scroll. Appraise the current treaty? Proposition? "Appraise the treaty, Hatake? There's few things I've not been sure of, but that particular treaty has never been one of them." The two villages had established, what she believed, to be a rather firm connection. Maybe she deluded herself there on that point. "However, if your Mizukage wishes to go over and appraise it once more, we can schedule for that. I'm usually available for meetings, so time doesn't appear to be a giant constraint at this point."
Now that was troublesome. There had been no scheduled bit, in regards to when the mizukage wanted the meeting. It was a little up in the air as to whom should propose it. Should Kinpaku do so herself? Would that seem presumptuous after such a statement? There were some issues in the plan.
