"Neat Trick," San commented as she watched the landing. Clearly the time Chie had spent at the academy had allowed the girl to learn some new things. "So far yeah, but actually I didn't come to check on that." Letting the mystery of her reasons hang there for a moment San seemed to be thinking about her next words carefully. "I'm going to check on somethings outside of the village and figured I should take someone with me just in case, you in?" A truthful statement though obviously one where much of what she was saying was being held back. Still it wouldn't hurt to take along an extra set of eyes. Who knew what was lurking upon the roads? As well it would prevent things from getting boring during the journey. All things considered, Chie really didn't need to know that San was questioning whether or not her previous orders had been carried out correctly. However it was too important to wonder about such things, she needed to know for certain or else that they might end up without the supplies to repair the village.

Chie’s brow furrowed as San spoke. She didn’t want to discuss the academy? Chie could tell that the woman had an alternate agenda. However, it truly didn’t matter to her. She liked the girl, so she was pretty much was ready to ride or die for her. “Sounds good! Let’s go.” She said with her arms raised and her fist tightened. She wasn’t entirely sure of what came next was dangerous, but she really didn’t care. She was a Ninjutsu master, so she was probably going to survive it.
ᑃ The first of the skills now open to her, Kamui, was something absolutely crazy. She would be able to create a whole new universe, or rather one already existed for her the moment her eyes were created. A stroke of inspiration came upon her, and she was able to very quickly figure out how they worked. With a bit of acuity on her part, the sharingan began to twist back into the mangekyo as she focused on a spot on the wall. She furrowed her brow, biting her lip as a bit of pain came from her brain straight into her eyeballs. Seconds later, the section of wall was missing entirely, and then thrown out from her eye again, dashed against the ground. [Two posts, and 10 free auto learns for Kamui.]
The next skill that Kya, now somewhat tired, would learn was one of great import to her clan. It was one of a pair of extremely powerful fire techniques that went as a rite to the upper echelon of Uchiha power, and Kya was certainly reaching that point. The first part of learning was the seals. The handseals took a long time to form. It was a somewhat long string, and it took quite a bit of time to memorize. The start to finish was like a lot of fire seals, it was obnoxious and aggressive. She always felt like she was a dragon, inhaling deeply through both lungs and hands as she weaved seals. In this right, she found her bloodline fire skills to be extremely fun to learn. It never made her have to spend a long time learning seals or kneading chakra. Kya flared her nostrils as she read. So much absurdly high requirements for chakra. So much destruction. It involved a highly dense load of chakra to be kneaded into the stomach of the user, and the lungs. When this was expelled, the sea of flames would end up washing over everything in death and destruction. If used in a forest, the pure heat would be a danger in addition to the jutsu itself. Part of the katon chakra mixing in would expand the user's lungs significantly. This would aid in the ability to exhale the flames in the quantity needed. Honestly, it all sounded like magic but a lot of fire jutsu struck her that way. With the kind of power she was wielding, the girl was easily one of the more... dangerous fire users suddenly as she learned that the brother skill to this one was less a stream and mroe a wall of pure death. She went over the handseals once more, able to perform them quickly, less clumsily. In the end she deemed it smart not to actually fire off the skill, and instead to put it to practice later on. [Goka Messhitsu]
The next skill that Kya, still somewhat tired, would learn was another one of great import to her clan. It was numero dos of a pair of extremely powerful fire techniques that went as a rite to the upper echelon of Uchiha power. As always, the first part of learning was the seals. The handseals for high ranking stuff always took a long time to form. This was another somewhat long string, and it took quite a bit of time to memorize. There was some variations on the second half of the seals from Messhitsu. The start to finish was over all not so different. [Recycling this sentence cause I like it] She always felt like she was a dragon, inhaling deeply through both lungs and hands as she weaved seals. In this right, she found her bloodline fire skills to be extremely fun to learn. It never made her have to spend a long time learning seals or kneading chakra. Kya liked this one more for fighting multiple opponents than she did the first. If they weren't in a forest, this skill would still cause widespread death and destruction in a manner that was somewhat conducive to clearing a path ahead. This one, too, had such absurdly high requirements for chakra. A lot of death could be wrought in this one's wake. It involved a highly dense load of chakra to be kneaded into the stomach of the user, and the lungs. When this was expelled, the wall of flames would end up washing over everything in death and destruction. If used in a forest, the wall would set flames to, and demolish everything like an explosion. All the same, as with Messhitsu, Goka Mekkyaku would always take the form of a wall rather than a stream once it had time to fly out. In that regard it was quite like a WWII flamethrower. Used properly, the jetstream tended to become quite like a ball. In this case, the flame would scatter out and force defenses be used to defend over a widespread area. [Goka Mekkyaku]
Deciding she had done enough, Kya left to meander over to the brass gauntlet, and then the dojo.
Well that was good, now she had a buddy. At the least it would help ensure that should something go wrong during their travels there wouldn't be a situation where San just ended up missing somewhere without word reaching back to the village. Beyond that though she would more than likely enjoy the company. "Yokay!" she blurted out enthusiastically before turning on her heels to walk with a quickened pace towards the village gates. "So tell me Red, ever left the village before?" [exit]
Chie followed to the village gates. The question was posed as to whether or not she ever left the village. Chie knew she had to one day, but she never got the chance. After all, she had family outside of these city walls. There was one person in Kiri she had to one day see and kick the butt of. "First time for everything!" Is all she would say aloud. This person, although important, was not her friend. She was her boss, so while she wasn't one to be formal, she also didn't want to weigh her down with needless facts. (Exit)

“Naomi Tenshu”
Posted: Fri Jan 05, 2018 8:38 pm
Chie returned to the academy. The building still looked in tact. No glass or leaves covered the grounds. She felt accomplished. As she moved into the building, Hoseki looked at her and waved. Chie forced herself to smile and wave back at him. It wasn't his fault that her entire world has changed. He didn't deserve to see her so different. As she reached main office of the academy, she created a shadow clone and had it go off to train. By now her clearance would be ready and she could learn. At the same time, the real Chie went off to read up on who graduated. There were a few new entries, and a lot of them were from classes she did not teach. Even still, the young woman wrote out and sent messages to all of the recent graduates, having them return to the academy. It was her hope to catch them before they went too far into their own business.
Chie’s clone went to research. She read up on the lightning ninjutsu Twitching Limb felt useful. It was able to paralyze an opponent’s limb. Chie felt such a technique would be useful for her combat needs. And for keeping her opponent alive. (Twitching Limb: C-ranked learn)
Chie also researched the control loss technique. Like the last technique it was designed to pacify an opponent. However, unlike the last one, this one had the side effect of emptying the opponent’s bladder and bowels. That seemed embarrassing to those she fought. She approved of that. (Control Loss: C-ranked learn)
Chie next read up on manipulated lightning. Apparently it caused strings of lightning to form out of her fingers and work them like whips. Apparently they can be focused on with her mind. It was definitely something worthy of the world’s greatest ninjutsu master. (Manipulated Lightning: B-ranked)
Next up was Lightning Dragon. Chie was excited to learn this jutsu since she already knew Water Dragon. This one seemed more complicated. She had to keep still while using it. That shouldn’t be a problem. Chie figured she could just have a clone perform it. (Lightning Dragon: B-ranked)
Finally it was time for some A-ranked! As Chie hoped, there was a jutsu about making a lightning dog. Chie read up exceptionally on this technique. Apparently the range on the technique wasn’t very far. It didn’t matter though, since it still meant lightning puppy. (Kakashi’s Lightning Wolf: A-ranked learned)
This looked cool! Chie read up on a technique that allowed her to fire chain lightning from her hands. That sounded absolutely wicked. She had to be able to use this in battle, if even only once. (Chain Lightning: A-ranked)
Suiton was next. Chie opened the scroll and looked at the basic techniques. The hidden mist technique looked very useful. Hiding in mist seemed oddly familiar to her. Unable to determine why, she read up on the technique and enjoyed the odd familiarity she had with it. (Hidden Mist Technique: D-ranked)
Of course, in order to read up on the hidden mist, it was imperative to read up on how to make oneself immune to mist. Chie read up on this next. She figured out what techniques they designed to make one immune to the masking effect of the mist. After reading it, she deduced that she could use it in a fight. (Hidden Mist Vision: D-ranked)
Ah. Chie found the technique Kya referred to her. The power to extract information from one’s head through the use of water ninjutsu. Chie read up on how to perform this technique. Once she did, she felt a chill come down her spine as she recalled what happened in that forest. It was better for her to keep her focus on her studies. (Water Interrogation: B-ranked)
Hey this looked cool! Chie read up on a technique that allowed her to make a thousand water needles in the air at the same time. Chie liked the sound of that. Because she liked how dangerous it sounded, of course she read up on it. (1000 needles of death: B-ranked learned)
Oh my. The A-ranked water ninjutsu were truly fascinating. Chie was fascinated with the Raging River Force. Like Hidden Mist, she felt oddly familiar with it. Again though, she couldn’t put a finger on why. Regardless, she trained up the technique and knew she could perform it when needed. (Raging River Force: A-ranked)
Chie next learned about Crashing Pillar of Heaven. It basically summoned a huge column of water upon an opponent. Chie already trained in a technique which did pretty much the same thing, only with a giant tornado. Having this felt very useful to her. (Crashing Pillar of Heaven: A-ranked)
Wind jutsu were next! Chie researched the wind sword ninjutsu. This technique allowed her to slice with an imaginary sword which cut people! That sounded useful. It felt like a technique especially korabo-able. (Sword of Wind: C-ranked)
Rotating Shuriken seemed useful. The technique would allow Chie to manipulate ninja tools in the air with the wind element. She could already do so with the advance manipulating blades, but she figured the two together would be quite useful. After all, she was the world’s greatest ninjutsu master. (Rotating Shuriken: C-ranked)
Chie next researched further into ninjutsu. She came across the Nadeshiko style Hardliner Revolving Cut. It basically did the same thing as the punch did for feet. Since Chie trained in the other one, this one took virtually no effort to learn. Just a memorization of the handseals required. (Nadeshiko style Hardliner Revolving Cut: B-ranked)
Assassin’s Rush was next. The power to make a mad dash and perform an attack seemed quite useful. This technique could be used for both evasion and offensive. Chie was sure this technique was going to help her quite a bit. She just had to recall to pay that extra chakra to cover her body. (Assassin’s Rush: B-ranked)
Chie read next the Solo Flight technique. Chie had always wanted to fly. She never thought such a day would come. She was glad to be proven wrong. It didn’t take her long to learn it. She was glad that she did. (Solo Flight: A-ranked)
Chie next read up on the Godly Winds of the Mountain. This technique seemed powerful. It created a giant current of wind to strike the opponent. This technique was probably going to be excellent through Korabo. As a ninjutsu master, Chie always had to keep that in mind. (Godly Winds of the mountain: A-ranked)
Chie next studied up on her Earth Ninjutsu. The Light Weight Rock technique seemed cool. It allowed her to make certain things lighter. Chie imagined that having a lot of use. Like with lifting the couch when she had to vacuum underneath. Hopefully it was as useful as she thought it was. (Light Weight Rock Technique: C-ranked)
Mole Hiding was next. Chie read up on how one could quickly dig and re-surface. This technique felt like it would have a lot of uses. She would have to make sure to teach it to her new students. She wondered if any of them would have the earth element. (Mole Hiding: C-ranked)
Earth Style Rampart was a technique where the user erected a wall of earth to defend oneself. Chie liked this idea. She needed more defensive ninjutsu. It was for this reason that she learned this technique.
Chie also liked the idea that this technique came in a mud flavor. Apparently the mud wall was even larger given the description in the scroll. Chie made sure to read up on it as well. It was basically the same thing as the Earth Style Rampart, so learning it was no extra effort. (Earth Style Rampart, Earth Style Wall: Both B-ranked)
Chie read a technique called Pulsating Earth. Apparently the technique was strong enough to make people feel weak just by being on contact with the earth. That felt extremely useful. Chie made sure to learn that with the haste. (Pulsating Earth: B-ranked)
Chie found herself eligible to learn a lot of the A-ranked earth ninjutsu. Two of the techniques were based off the weight manipulation technique she learned earlier. The first technique allowed her to dramatically decrease the weight of objects she touched further. This technique seemed fun to Chie. She wanted to use this to throw a house at someone. Why did that feel familiar? Oh well, jutsu learned! (Ultra Light Weight Rock Technique: A-ranked)
The next technique seemed extremely interesting. It dramatically increased her own weight and striking power. Chie liked to take a combative role in her ninjutsu. She was excited to learn another technique which allowed her to punch hard. And, it seemed to be no effort to learn either. (Ultra Added Weight Rock Tehnique: A-ranked)
Rock Fist! The technique was a simple as the name applied. Apply chakra to the hand, have the hand have heavy rocks on it, and then punch. This technique was so delightfully straight forward. Chie had to learn it. (Rock First: A-ranked)
Earth Plate Barrage sounded incredible. It literally rose the earth around her and shot it into a barrage of rock pieces. Chie was amazed such a feat was possible with ninjutsu. Truly she was becoming a ninjutsu master if she was able to read and learn how to perform such a technique. (Earth Plate Barrage: A-ranked)
Chie decided to switch fire ninjutsu as she read up on the fireproof technique. The ninjutsu coated the user in a layer of their own chakra in order to avoid flame hazards. This seemed rather useful to Chie. After all, she couldn’t let herself get so off guard as she did last tie in that forest. (Fireproof Technique: C-ranked)
Dragon Fire was next. Chie read up on this rather straightforward stream of fire. It was pretty much what it said on the tin. Chie had a respect for techniques like that. It’s why she had to learn it. (Dragon Fire: C-ranked)
Oh my! Chie realized that a technique she learned earlier had an upgraded form. Mystical Fire Pheonix Nails Red allowed Chie to, rather than coat a weapon with fire, instead make the weapon’s internal temperature extremely hot. This seemed incredibly useful as a tool to get the element of surprise on the opponent. This is why she learned it. (Mystical Fire Pheonix Nails Red: B-ranked)
Speaking about augmentation, Hydra! Chie just learned Dragon Fire, but apparently the technique had a more advance form. This one allowed the user to create three streams from their mouth at the same time. That seemed incredibly crafty. It was a good thing she just learned the previous version. (Hydra: B-ranked)
Chie next researched how to use the longsword technique. It created a giant sword out of fire. Chie felt like this technique would have quite some use with her. She already had excellent use of the water sword in korabo with the levitating sword trick. Chie was sure that she could find use for this as well. (Longsword: B-ranked)
Speaking about use! There was another technique which used a sword swing to create a burning shockwave. Chie was adamant that she could korabo this technique with the sword creation skill she just learned. There was no way that she could let such an opportune moment pass. After all, she was the world’s greatest ninjutsu master. (Cloud Style Flame Slash: B-ranked)
Flame Fist was next. Chie again loved the simplicity of the technique. Charge fire chakra, punch, and explosion! How could anyone not enjoy this? Chie read this technique twice just because she liked it so much. (Flame Fist: A-ranked)
Oh my. Chie read up on a technique which allowed her to create an even stronger sword of fire. Why was this not an augmentation? Oh well. Chie read up on this technique. She then sighed at the fact that there was no way to use her current levitating sword technique with it. That didn’t matter with learning this technique, however! (Heavenly Prison Fire Sword: A-ranked)
Chie tried to figure out a way to make the new sword levitated. The current technique she had was too weak, however. What if she made it stronger? But how? Could she combine it with the advance manipulating blades? Chie paused as she wrote up a rough draft. When she saw it, she smiled as she was sure such a technique could properly levitate the blade. (Custom: Floating Calvary: A-ranked three coupons used)
Chie next wanted to make a stronger water sword. Her favorite combination was levitating sword and water sword. So naturally she had to play with the formation of the sword. As she wrote a technique, she utilized water’s innate ability to be manipulated. This instantly allowed her to design and create a technique to suit her needs.
Chie spent some more time really playing with the mechanics of this technique. First, she figured out how to make a stronger water sword. Then, she figured out how to turn it into something not a sword. Finally, she figured out to make more than one weapon at a time. The most she could create, however, was four (Custom: Aquatic Armory: A-ranked two coupons used)
Nonton was all that remained of ninjutsu! Chie read up on the camouflage concealment technique. Apparently this technique protected oneself from even sensors. This was truly what she needed to get the jump start on those UHV fools the next time she crossed them. (Camouflage concealment technique: A-ranked)
Chie next learned the spiraling sphere, aka rasengan. This was way too easy to her. The technique only required the constant rotation of chakra. That was so simple. She was adamant any twelve year old blond boy was daddy issues could learn this technique. Huh. She wondered why that was the image she got in her head. Who cares! Jutsu learned. (Rasengan: A-ranked)
Chie had one last ninjutsu she was going to learn. This technique was simple. Instead of one clone, nine hundred showed up. Chie wondered about the pragmatic usages of this technique, but she figured it couldn’t hurt to learn it. Apparently it was at no cost of her to learn so. (Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu: A-ranked)
Chie shuddered as she picked up a scroll of genjutsu. She truly hated it. But! If she was going to be a teacher, then she was going to have to branch out beyond ninjutsu. The art of fake death seemed useful. The power to fake one’s death had to have merit. Chie learned it and moved onto the next one. It was indefinitely harder to learn genjutsu, but thankfully she felt particularly motivated. (Art of Fake Death: B-ranked)
Chie liked this technique. It allowed her to set up an auto-immunity to a C-ranked or lower genjutsu. That certainly would come in handy. Especially since she could pass it onto an ally. Chie read this up with the force. She had to make sure her students were protected after all. (Echo of Clarity: B-ranked)
Finally, forgetfulness. The ability to make someone forget how to use a particular technique was invaluable if used right. Chie had in mind the perfect execution of this technique as well. She would get her chance eventually, she was sure of it. (Forgetfulness: B-ranked)
What Chie would soon see was the long, raven-haired Nise, with a wooden training puppet draped over one shoulder and a large crossbow banging into her right thigh with every step, power walking through the Academy like a girl on a mission. Which was technically true, the Hokage had assigned her some special training back here immediately after she had received her shiny new forehead protector, now worn loosely around her neck like a bandanna. She looked a little troubled and was fiddling around with it, absentmindedly tracing the Leaf insignia on her ninja headband... with one of her palm tongues.
"Oh, I'm here already." Nise remarked out loud, surprised by the sheer focus she had in getting away from the Hokage's office. She nervously looked over her shoulder even though she knew that if the Hokage was going to get her back for that remark it would definitely not come from anywhere she would expect. Well, she didn't know where this Chie Saegahara was supposed to be waiting for her so she sat in the lobby and began fiddling with some clay. Nise didn't know what to expect of this, which made her nervous, so she decided to work on some of the basics of her bloodline while waiting for Chie or for the genin she had met earlier, Hiniko. She had normally molded things by hand but it had been explained to her that she could actually mold things with... her hand mouths. Quickly and precisely too! She had never thought of putting clay in those mouths before, truth be told.
Nise began focusing a small bit of her chakra into creating a small ball of clay. Her right hand's mouth then spat it out into her left hand and she began playing with it. Testing the clay's consistency, she began hand-molding it into a penguin. Okay, now for the next part she would try to recreate this figure using one of her mending mouths. She rolled the figure back into a perfect sphere and popped it into her right hand mouth. It honestly felt a little weird. Her palm tongues were actually quite dexterous. She molded with her tongue, slowly and carefully, the shape of the penguin figure she previously made. After a while, she popped it out and observed it. Hmm... It was a good penguin figure but she felt as though her hand crafting was better. That was to be expected, it was only her first usage.
She re-rolled it back into clay and threw it into her left hand mouth now. This she would repeat a few times, alternating hand mouths as she sharpened the resolution of the penguin. It was great actually, she felt as though she had unlocked something important. There was a vast ocean of potential now and she noticed that she was speeding up with each iteration. That was exciting, Nise had spent a lot of time learning how to make detailed figures by hand, which was how she would earn some ryo here and there after getting kicked out of the orphanage, but within a few minutes her mouth hands were already at that quality. And she felt as though she learned a few more principles to apply to the normal method! But most exciting would be doing them both at once.
First Class: Puppeteer ____Discipline → Army of One: The user makes use of their puppetry skills to become a one man army, increasing the overall output potential that their signature weapons can dish out by allowing them to control puppets according to one [1] rank above their own. In other words, at D-rank, they can control one puppet per hand, whereas other disciplines require both hands for one puppet. To maximize this potential, the users puppets gain a +3 weapon mechanism per puppet. Additionally, their chakra strings are significantly tougher than other puppet user's, making any chakra string technique act a rank higher. For D-rank, this bonus only works for techniques D rank and lower, C-rank for C rank and lower, B-rank for B rank and lower, A-rank for A rank and lower, and S-rank for S rank and lower.
Second Class: Sensor ____Discipline → Resolution: The user is more determined to get fine details from his sensory techniques, but in order to get this type of clarity the user's range of the technique is reduced by half. The user is able to discover type of technique that is about to be active (fuuin, genjutsu, ninjutsu, custom jutsu, complex tai and buki), even specifics such as Bloodline type and rank. Additionally, the user can gain similar information about any chakra source in their sensory technique's range, including what bloodline the person possesses, assuming the user has seen the bloodline before, and approximately how large their chakra pool is.

Hiniko made her way into the building, still beating herself up for how stupid she had been earlier. And in front of the Hokage and other Genin as well! She was not starting her day out as well as she had hoped. she changed her face to one of calm pleasantness when she spotted Nise sitting in a chair, fiddling with something that looked like clay. Hiniko walked over and sat next to her, leaving a seat between the two of them.
"That's cool" she said, nodding towards the girls hands, but looking at Nise. I don't think i've seen anything like that before. I wish I had something cool like that to compare too." she laughed a little. She hesitated before saying anything else. Nise was small, she reminded Hiniko of her younger sisters, the way she acted. Hiniko was trying not to treat her like a kid though. She was a fellow ninja, she was here, training with her. She could look after herself. Her smile wavered just a little when she thought back to her family. She hoped they were holding up okay.
Chie didn't have to wonder long if her messages went out. Her ears picked up Nise abruptly calling out to someone. Maybe Chie should have put more effort into what the exporting messages said. She did leave it rather vague. No! She couldn't be at fault. She was the world's greatest ninjutsu master. The fact that she was back at the academy restored a great deal of confidence to her. This building made her feel particularly strong and capable. It was with this rekindled bravado that she exited the office and headed to main lobby.
Before Chie reached them, Koromaru moved to them first. The albino shiba inu panted spiritedly as he ran around the legs of the two ladies. His fuzzy head landed in the lap of Hiniko when Chie made it down the stairs. She sighed as the dog was pleading with his blood red eyes for the girl to pet his head. "Don't mind him. He'll probably heel if you tell him to." She said unsure. Was Koromaru trained in any way aside from ninja combat? Maybe having some training manuals wouldn't be a bad idea. The pink haired girl scanned Hiniko and then Nise. Hiniko seemed to be only carrying the standard shinobi weaponry while Nise had a puppet and a crossbow on her. There was nothing subtle about the fact this girl clearly preferred to fight at a range. And what was that in her hands. Clay? It looked gross. But! Chie would not comment on that aside from a perturbed facial reaction. She forced a cough and stood up dignified."Nisengo Hyakuichi, Hiniko Nakamura. Thank you both for being the first to arrive at my request." She said with a forced stoic tone. She was helplessly unaware that these two did not get her official request. She was trying to carry herself as she thought a person in charge of actual ninja should. Unfortunately, she didn't necessarily have the best examples...
"Oh, thanks! ... Here, watch this." Nise's head shot up when she realized she wasn't alone here anymore. It looked like Hiniko had managed to catch up with her now. She flashed a quick smile and then decided to show off a little bit. It wasn't often she got to see people in general so it was even rarer when they took an interest in her.
Now, Nise popped the clay ball back in one of here hands and began molding it once again. She began molding it into the shape of a common sparrow. First, she would start with the general shape. She funneled some chakra into it as well. Her tongue internally flicked and shaped the two things and continued to energize it. She visualized the fine details next. Beaks, eyes, feathers were all being detailed now. She knew she could make the clay sparrow lifelike. Finally, it was done. All completed internally in one of her hand mouths. [Trained C1 w/ 3 posts].
After a little bit of work, Nise opened her hands and out popped a small clay sparrow. It shook itself a little, as though it was wet. It actually was a little wet, all things considered, but after a little bit it would harden and be able to fly. And explode, of course, but that was neither here nor there. Nise would extend her arm to let the clay sparrow hop up to her shoulder. "Pretty cool, yeah?"
"Ooh lookie a puppy!" Nise pointed gleefully as the white shiba inu started running around the two girls and tried to sneak in some pats. It went off to Hiniko in the end so Nise stood up to address whomever was coming down the stairs.
"Hey hey. You're Chie then right? Yeah, uhh the Hokage sent us here and all." Nise waved to her a little uncertainly. What was this request thing she was talking about? If this was Chie, she was looked pretty similar in age to her and Hiniko. Well... that was how tough things must've been around here now after the attack.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hiniko was fascinated by what the girl was doing. It was so unique, and interesting to watch. When she finished her sculpture, Hiniko stared at it in awe. Her concentration was broken however, when a white dog came barreling towards them. Hiniko chuckled and watched it run around them a few times before coming to rest its head in her lap. With a smile she petted it's head gently. What a cute animal she thought.
It wasn't long before the dogs owner appeared. Hiniko looked up in curiosity as a small girl walked in. She told her that her dog would probably heel if she asked it to, but she didn't mind and continued to pet him. Chie coughed and addressed them formally and Hiniko had to stifle a smile. She was aware that Chie was her trainer, and probably more skilled then she was, but Hiniko could also tell how forced this bravado was. Chie was such a small girl, she probably thought she HAD to demand focus on her.
Hiniko stood up and gave a slight bow.
"Pleasure to meet you as well. I take it you'll be training us?" Hiniko greeted her with a small smile. Nevermind the fact that it was the Hokage who sent them on not this girl. "By the way, you never gave us your name?" She questioned, noting that this girl seemed to know who they were, but failed to introduce herself. Or her white fury friend. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The Hokage sent you?!" Chie said alarmed as her took a step back and her arms extended from her. How did the Hokage know what Chie was up to? Did San tell her? Chie was suddenly very concerned about how much she was attempting to do. Was she truly the best person to train up the future shinobi? Especially the ones who have already graduated? She quickly recomposed herself, however, as Hiniko asked for her question. 'These kids must be telling the truth, considering my notice had my name on it.' She internally monologued. Great. Now she really had to swing the ball out of the park. Still, she took a deep breath and shifted her glance between Nise and Hinoko as she spoke. "I am Chie Saegahara! Under the permission of San, I will be instructing you both how to survive within the ninja world. Well, you and all of the other graduates, but apparently they're taking the detour route..."
Chie sighed at the outcome she had so far. There had to be more graduates than these two. This was Konoha! However, she slipped back in her speech which was rather on the fly. "Right now you have only your academy experience to rely on, as well as any baggage from your home life. But, as someone who taught at this school, I am here to tell you that we need to get serious if we are to face the threats outside of these walls." There was more conviction in Chie's tone as she spoke. Her eyes shifted to a more solemn glare. She did not want to give either of them an inkling of doubt as to the relevance of this. She wouldn't let them be as off guard as she was. Now that she finished, however, it was time to put her money where her mouth is.
Chie's hands rose to her chest and a single handseal formed from the two index and middle fingers meeting in a cross position. A puff of smoke befell her and as the clouds passed in a moment's time, two more of her arose. The two then motioned to each of the two girls. The one near Hinoko gently pushed Koromaru away so that the girl could focus on her. "First lesson, shadow clones. The most versatile technique a ninja can have in their arsenal. It can be used for offense, defense, or even support. I can't think of a reason why either of you wouldn't use this technique. Because of this, I want you both to learn it right now." Chie was confident in her abilities as she told the kids their first lesson. She was sure that once she showed them her capacity as an instructor that they would listen to her without question."After you hear the instructions on the chakra molding, create the handseal shown by the clone in front of you." She said as the two clones mirrored the same handseal as Chie just performed. "For the chakra molding, gather a feel of your chakra network and imagine it as a diagram. Make a perfect image of your individual chakra network in your head, and then duplicate it mentally. The max amount of clones you can make is three at this stage, so just make copies of yourself in your mind and then perform the handseal." Chie figured that with these instructions, anyone could learn the technique. It was ultimately up to them if they were going to heed her advice or not.
OOC:Alright so! Shadow Clones is a B-ranked skill, so that would usually take 7 post to learn. But! When someone teaches you a jutsu, you take one post off. And when that person knows the jutsu that they're teaching, then you can take 2 additional post off. Next we're in the academy, so that takes off 2 post as well. Finally, each of you have a one post faster reduction for ninjutsu. Therefore, all it'll take you guys is one post just mimicking what Chie did and then you'll both know the shadow clones. ◆￤ CHAKRAx 860/ 900x◆￤ STAMINAx 295/ 295x◆￤ RYOx 400 x◆￤ ACx 11,100 ◆￤ Ninjutsu / Ninjutsux◆￤ C-RANK x◆￤ Geninx◆￤ KONOHAGAKURExxxxxx
----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hiniko could tell instantly when the mood of the conversation had changed. Chie was confident and stern when she spoke of their survival and the threats that awaited them. Hiniko knew what she meant, and a look of concentration covered her face. Konoha had taken some heavy damage, and there was still so much left to do. It was Hiniko's job to be a part of that now.
Chie almost immediately formed a hand seal after her little speech, and then there were two more of her. Hiniko looked on at the familiar technique. They really weren't going to waste any time. She watched and listened with acute concentration now. Chie wasn't joking around. While Hiniko Knew the clone Jutsu, she also knew this was different then that, more advanced. She was impressed at the ease Chie performed it, and hoped that she'd be able to duplicate it with that much ease too.
Hiniko nodded after hearing what she had to do, and closed her eyes taking a deep breath. She felt within herself, feeling for her chakra. She felt how it flowed through her, like a river that interlocked and wrapped around its self. She took a moment to see it, the whole thing how every ounce of it moved. And then, just as Chie instructed she duplicated that river in her mind. And again, until she had the amount she needed. She held strong to the copies she created and then opened her eyes.
She could feel the chakra flowing in her, ready to be used as she moved her hands up and imitated the hand sign exactly. A puff of smoke went up suddenly, and within a minute cleared to reveal three solid copies of Hiniko, standing in formation behind her. She dropped her hands and smiled slightly. Inside she was ecstatic with the fact she did it in her first shot. Behind her, her clones high fived each other.
Wow, Chie must have a really close relationship to the Hokage to be on a first name basis with her. I guess I should be taking her a little more seriously then. Nise thought to herself, a little bit of the respect showing on her face. I really hope the Hokage doesn't tell her that I called her a ho by accident. Well, it was time to get serious now as Chie seemed to gather herself and change full into instructor mode. Ah man, the Academy was kind of a pain to go through and it almost felt like a distraction from her own goals, but Nise knew better than to raise a fuss.
And after all, Hiniko had already done it so quickly! A small pout built up in the corner of her mouth (face mouth for clarification) as she felt some sort of competitive spirit spark inside. There was something about her that made Nise want to impress her as well. Well, listening to Chie's instructions was actually useful! Hey, she was better than those bores back at the Academy. These were instructions that were actually useful for Nise. Chakra molding and visualization were already core for her so with Chise's demonstration, Nise attempted it herself.
She basically mimicked her teacher to a T. Feet spaced equally apart, she raised her hands to her chest, forming a cross with her index and middle fingers. She visualized more of herself and molded her chakra, not too unlike molding clay, and created a puff of smoke that made three clones of Nise as well. Not to be outdone by Hiniko, of course.
"Woah hey that was easy!" The real Nise exclaimed, identified by the clay sparrow sitting on her shoulder. Each of her clones seemed to explode into action too, showing just how busy Nise's mind is. The real Nise and one of the clones began poking each other to test both how a clone felt and how a clone feels. A second one lightly skipped over to where the shiba inu was and began trying to play with it. The third clone, seeing the priorities were being taken, gave Hiniko a thumbs-up and turned to Chie.
"Hey that was great Teach! So... how come you and Lady Hokage are so close even though you're just a teach? No offense. I mean... you know, she's the Hokage and all. Girls' night out? Childhood friends? A forbidden romance?" The clone asked the nearest Chie eagerly, getting more worked up with each question.
First Class: Puppeteer ____Discipline → Army of One: The user makes use of their puppetry skills to become a one man army, increasing the overall output potential that their signature weapons can dish out by allowing them to control puppets according to one [1] rank above their own. In other words, at D-rank, they can control one puppet per hand, whereas other disciplines require both hands for one puppet. To maximize this potential, the users puppets gain a +3 weapon mechanism per puppet. Additionally, their chakra strings are significantly tougher than other puppet user's, making any chakra string technique act a rank higher. For D-rank, this bonus only works for techniques D rank and lower, C-rank for C rank and lower, B-rank for B rank and lower, A-rank for A rank and lower, and S-rank for S rank and lower.
Second Class: Sensor ____Discipline → Resolution: The user is more determined to get fine details from his sensory techniques, but in order to get this type of clarity the user's range of the technique is reduced by half. The user is able to discover type of technique that is about to be active (fuuin, genjutsu, ninjutsu, custom jutsu, complex tai and buki), even specifics such as Bloodline type and rank. Additionally, the user can gain similar information about any chakra source in their sensory technique's range, including what bloodline the person possesses, assuming the user has seen the bloodline before, and approximately how large their chakra pool is.
Chie smiled when the two were able to learn the jutsu she performed. Clearly she wasn't dealing with fools. They both seemed like competent women, so it was no surprise that they both understood. As Hiniko kept herself composed, however, Nise allowed one of her clones to play with Koromaru, while another one of her clones asked her why her and the hokage were on such good terms. 'What does she mean? I've never even met the woman!' She thought, as she yet to meet Ivalice. The only person she did meet was San. However, when the girl also clarified that it was the name drop that implied that she knew the Hokage, Chie laughed wildly. "San isn't the Hokage! She's a desk clerk. Her and I were just on a mission together, so I think I would know if I was travelling with the leader of Konoha." Things started to get clarified as now she knew what probably happened. Chie did request to San to train the new genin, so San probably sent them her way. The fact that they thought the red haired girl around her age was the Hokage was hysterical to her. Nonetheless, Chie stopped her laughing while she realized that she should probably let San be aware that she did in fact have these genin.
"Koromaru! Come over here." She said as the dog's ears perked up. He fled from the Nise clone giving him attention as Chie moved to a desk and hastily wrote up a message. 'Hey it's Chie! Two of the new genin made their way to the academy. They're not sucking so far. I trained them all in shadow clones. Hopefully they all don't flop when it's time to test their merit. P.S. Some of these kids thought you were the Hokage. How funny, right?' Chie finished her note and passed it to the dog. "You know that red haired girl I bought you with? Head over to her and don't stop until you find her." She said sternly. Koromaru held the paper in his mouth as he sniffed the air around him. When he found a scent, the dog rushed off and left the academy. Chie stood up firm as she looked over all of the shadow clones. (Evaluations: C-ranked)
"This office is going to get rather tight if we keep training here. I suggest we go outside." Chie said as she headed out of the academy. She stood right outside of the entrance, although at enough of a distance so that the other two would not feel cramped as soon as they exited the building. The three Chie's stood at a distance for each other as they then spoke on the assumption that the two would follow them out. "The next thing you all need to know is Korabo. And the reason for it is because it is imperative for ninja working together that you all can collaboratively strike your enemy."
Chie's two clones headed over to each other. As they stood within close quarters of each other the two started to perform handseals as the same time. When the two finished, they utilized the same seal as a tornado spiraled around the two of them. The tornado was larger in size than usual and was a monument of ninjutsu potential. "This is the use of Korabo!" She shouted over the tornado. The tornado then parted as Chie waved at the two students and their clones. "Basically in order to make it work, you need to perform your handseals in exact sync with yourself and a clone of yourself. That's part one of your training. For part two, you are to have your clone and your partner's clone mirror handseals as well. Finally, you need to sync handseals with me. If you can do all three perfected, then you will be well on your way to becoming a proper ninja." She said assured. Now she was truly feeling like she was ready to lead.
OOC:Hey! So you guys need to make one post learning korabo for yourself first each. Then you can write out a post doing korabo toward your teammate. Since everyone has the clone technique, let's use the clone technique as the base which we are koraboing together. Finally, your third paragraph for training will be toward Chie. That way you will have B-ranked Korabo trained up with yourself, with each other, and with me. Also so far for missions, you can claim one Learn a Jutsu! One Find a Mentor. From doing this training you can claim another Learn a Jutsu! As well as two Making a Friend. That will make you guys all have 1000 ac so far. ◆￤ CHAKRAx 860/ 900x◆￤ STAMINAx 295/ 295x◆￤ RYOx 400 x◆￤ ACx 11,100 ◆￤ Ninjutsu / Ninjutsux◆￤ C-RANK x◆￤ Geninx◆￤ KONOHAGAKURExxxxxx
"Neat Trick," San commented as she watched the landing. Clearly the time Chie had spent at the academy had allowed the girl to learn some new things. "So far yeah, but actually I didn't come to check on that." Letting the mystery of her reasons hang there for a moment San seemed to be thinking about her next words carefully. "I'm going to check on somethings outside of the village and figured I should take someone with me just in case, you in?" A truthful statement though obviously one where much of what she was saying was being held back. Still it wouldn't hurt to take along an extra set of eyes. Who knew what was lurking upon the roads? As well it would prevent things from getting boring during the journey. All things considered, Chie really didn't need to know that San was questioning whether or not her previous orders had been carried out correctly. However it was too important to wonder about such things, she needed to know for certain or else that they might end up without the supplies to repair the village.
