xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The training of meshing one's chakra with another person through a means of synchronization? Zahara listened for a long while as he gathered the thoughts and took heed to everything that was explained. For one, he agreed whole-heartily on the practicality of the Shadow Clone jutsu as he was quite familiar with. The Korabo or Collaboration Technique was what this woman was beginning to get down to the point of the exercise, to combine the efforts of two techniques or people into a single result. It seemed to him that this was the product of true teamwork outside of the intense partnership of Tamer Ninja.
Then he stood there awkwardly as both the woman who demonstrated the clone and now the illusion caster commented both on his style and eyelashes(? ? ?). Like a statue, he didn't move much other than an awkward shifting in his stance, weighing more on the back foot. "Uhh.." he began, eyes flicking back to their instructor. Beginning to think to himself if this was normal, Zahara breathed in as his own way to focus once the embrace ceased and the verbal cue was said.
"Right." He let out a long breath of air and went through the few seals for the Clone technique. It was a simple release of chakra as golden aura flowed from his hands and then circulated upon a central point to his right, which would be to the girl's left. He extended his right hand then, palm up and released chakra outwards for the illusionary clone to make its appearance. "Let's see what comes up..." - Korabo E -
Chakra intermingled with the woman he stood back to back with, their synergy showing in its chromatic display. Zahara knew something of the chakra control needed to create one of those shadow clones so the basic one was simple enough. But the idea of creating something new with a combination with the assistance of another shinobi was definitely a foreign idea. He visualized the chakra network that each shinobi possessed, the many different networks and nodes that allowed each individual to mold their abilities. Taking that simple mental imagery was the focus he required to comprehend with the use of combining his effort with a foreign substance. It would be like two streams of water, flowing into a deep sea and out to the tide. A vast sea was imagined and then narrowed down to a small, simple figment of his mind's eye. To rise and fall of the tide that swept along the beach, the flow of two rivers now apart of that very same ocean was visualized into becoming apart of the tide. Two foreign bodies of water that began from different points had met and became part of the ocean. Korabo D-C-B
Zahara snapped his hand shut suddenly and stepped away from the woman now as he turned to inspect the clone. He looked over at the one who gave the instruction and once at the woman he combined his efforts with. Although silent, he worked in a small grin at his satisfaction and approval of the tandem creation of the illusionary clone that formed. The looks of it were a bit off for his own tastes, preferring something that looked explicitly male or female in the first place yet he began to see the practicality in the base teachings.
So this is what they've been alluding to. This wasn't something I've been taught by any instructor. Zahara shifted his weight to one foot again, idly observing the clone and to see what this woman was going to begin with next. He knew it wouldn't end there at any rate.
Chie's eyes caught hesitation within Jun. Did she flinch when she molded her own chakra? That was certainly odd. For Chie, her chakra control was as natural as moving a finger. That's how she thought it was for all ninja. No one else she has taught has visibly shown fear before. Nonetheless, she performed her technique, and mastered Korabo with herself. At least, Chie thought she did. She really needed to see if she could convince Kya to train her in some sensory skills so that she could know automatically once people succeeded or not. At least with the other ninja, who has still not given his name... He appeared to get her lessons. The two were showing promise. Next was getting them to truly bond. "Alright so we're learning the basics of teamwork. Now it's time to put this into a bit more of a practical situation." The Chie on the right said as the other one poofed away. Her young arm extended forward as water materialized out of nothing within her grasp. The water danced around her hand until she tightened it into a fist. Her right arm went over her head as the water took a more solid form. Then, as she brought her arm down, a tower shield fully materialized and was placed in front of her. "So for the next lesson, you need to figure out a way to break through this shield together. This is a lesson both on Korabo and of how it's properties work. For example, did you know that two jutsu of different elements, when combined, are not treated as though they have the strength or weaknesses of either? Their individual quirks would only apply if they were to collide with another korabo of two opposing elements. Thankfully this shield, however, is only the water element. So think about how best for you both to use two techniques to merge together into a strike powerful enough to defeat this shield." Chie said. In truth, this was a little bit of a gamble. She knew that Jun had the fire and lightning element, which meant that Jun had to have an element which was either korabo compatible with either fire or lightning. Given that most ninja had two elements, however, that felt more likely than not. This trial was mostly aimed at Jun, however, who was clearly not comfortable with her own power yet. It was Chie's hope that having her practice Korabo with a more skilled ninja would give her the confidence to trust in her individual potential. To help with that, Chie created a shadow clone beside her. "This clone will teach you any technique which is safe for your rank to learn of either fire or lightning. You can ask her for help and she will teach." Chie said, giving the girl pretty much free range to learn whatever technique she wanted from the vast library of fire and lightning Ninjutsu Chie had acquired. ◆￤ CHAKRAx 655/ 770x◆￤ STAMINAx 555/ 555x◆￤ RYOx 800 x◆￤ ACx 11,900 ◆￤ Ninjutsu / Ninjutsux◆￤ C-RANK x◆￤ Geninx◆￤ KONOHAGAKURExxxxxx
This combined illusion made for an interesting experience. After their conjoined efforts the clone they had created was a culmination of both of their features. Jun could spot the ones that it reflected from her, most evidently the bright hues that decorated its hair. But there was an underlying masculinity that came from her partner, a hardness to the jawline and a fierceness in the eyes that Jun knew she did not possess. It's body was both of theirs, androgynous underneath the clothes. The look it bore upon its features seemed enigmatic, a cross between Jun's often day-dreaming self and Zahara's stoic nature. "That's freaky, man. For a moment there we were on the same..." Her calm voice trailed off and her eyes widened as she raised her eyebrows and wiggled her fingers in the air, not quite sure what word would describe that the best. Synchronizing with Zahara was awkward. On one hand it had this really warm feel to it, like when you know a friend has your back. On the other he was a complete and total stranger and Jun couldn't help but think of how they were doing this because someone was telling them to, not because it would ever happen. She wondered if the two of them would ever actually be friends. Friends have to at least know each other's names though, right? "I uh, don't think I caught your name, guy." She said it quietly so as to not interrupt Chie's water dancing.
Jun sighed audibly at having to make a decision here. Chie was really putting her through her paces. Briefly she considered getting up and leaving for a mid day nap or maybe a pleasant stroll by some lake, but that would probably be immensely rude. Besides, these two for the most part - aside from making her actually do her training- seemed like cool people. Jun made up her mind to stick around and put her brain to the the proverbial grind. "Okay so like, the ability that comes to mind that I'd like to know requires some steps. Like prerequisites I guess. I want to be at the Lightning Beam technique, but I need the first two before that, yeah?" Jun asked in a half question, half statement.
Chie's clone explained the concept of the Lightning Bolt technique. She showed Jun the seals, who committed it to memory as swiftly as one could. The girl went over them with her hands a few times, slowly molding her chakra with the correct method. A crackle of energy rippled along her arm, raising the hairs upon it before culminating in the palm of her hand. Jun aimed her hand outward, picking an unoccupied space so no one would be tasered. Then a sudden twitch on her face. Was it the static electricity dancing along her body that made her want to sneeze? Jun didn't have time to think. She took in a big breath and sneezed in to the crook of her arm, letting go of the bolt at the same time accidentally. It flew upward towards the ceiling, crashing in to it and fizzling along before fading out. Jun tried to put a sheepish face on about it.
According to Chie #2 the blast version of that ability merely sustained the lightning. That would require more focus, concentrating on retaining the correct chakra flow to keep the lightning running out of her being. Similar set of hand seals later and this time Jun made sure she was completely facing away from the squad. She spread her legs and extended one arm, bracing it with the other with palm open. A wave of her energy pushed forward towards the focal point and burst from her hand with a crackle that singed the air immediately around her finger tips. The blast of electricity arced in patterns that flickered and changed before Jun could get a grasp of them. They all met at the end, boring a constant stream of raw energy in to the poor defenseless practice dummy. Jun ended the light show, shaking her hand off."Whoa, my fingers are tingling like they fell asleep." She flexed her hand to shake off the feeling, turning back to the false Chie for further instruction.
This run through would only require more energy. Jun had this feeling that having lightning as an element was less about control and more about pointing it in the right direction and getting out of its way. It felt so volatile and dangerous. Like she was literally shooting bolts of freaking lightning from her body right now. People could very well die from being hit by something like that, though Jun surmised that was most likely the point. Nobody made these kinds of abilities with the notion to be used in a peaceful way. This time Jun held her hands together and outward, muttering quietly to herself in place of finger movements. They felt strained from that kind of energy launching from her. She braced herself this time for the slightly uncomfortable feeling. Rather than keeping up a constant stream Jun chose to push out a fat ball of it. It shot from her like an arrow from a bow and slammed in to the dummy, arcing outward in every direction. "To be honest I'm not sure what you'll combine it with. I uh, is there a list or something? We can do that vibing thing again and see what happens. That beam attack is the best I've got at the moment." Jun shrugged and stood side by side with Zahara, readying herself to match him and perform her ability. She was aiming for Chie's shield and began pushing out her aura. It surrounded her in soft waves that overlapped in a color not so far from that of her hair. She looked to the guy next to her and nodded her head, showing her readiness.

"Got it!" Sumika chirped as her fingers twitched and one of the lightning tendrils snapped over to the clay, delivering its charge. She honestly had no idea what this would do. It could blow up the building even more, not that this seemed like something she'd want to avoid, but, well, it was probably something San wanted to avoid. For now the girl waited with bated breath over those scant moments, Cobalt ducking down to hide in her hoodie out of instinct. That was good, he was learning who was boss and what to expect.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The clone had been a success all around, even if the creation of it was a bit odd, if even a bit blemished in its supposed perfection. Or was it perfect, Zahara pondered on that possible outcome and he simply shrugged. It wasn't too much of a bother, as he still desired some clear cut preference on gender with appearances, since things were simpler that way. The practice was only a means to an end, to get used to the notion of syncing chakra with another individual. A combined effort as it were, true to the technique name.
Zahara kept his attention on the instructions with the next bit being more on the practical application, one clone went poof only to be replaced by another. Narrowing his eyes, he wondered about the clone creation then. Had that not been inefficient use of chakra, or did she not spread the chakra and energy decently the first time? Or perhaps had there been too much chakra in the first clone -- he shook his head as she had created a water defense in front of herself. The explanation of the next step in lessons was simple to follow, though a bit too much so as Zahara watched the jutsu that she maintained and figured that his jutsu wouldn't break past it.
Reflecting on his training with the lightning element, he thought long and hard on a powerful enough technique that might assist in toppling the water shield. Jun, the one who seemed to be spacing off was having the second clone as a sort of resource to help hone her own techniques. Through both idle observation and his existing knowledge, he watched the girl perform the techniques but without handseals, or strenuous movement of any kind. Casting a glance back to the instructor, he noted both of them had ways of utilizing techniques in odd ways though he could respect that.
Reflecting on observing the girl's lightning practice, he closed his eyes and clapped his hands together as he focused on gathering his chakra and centering himself. He listened to her while he performed a single handseal, still focusing as chakra focused toward his closed eyes. Zahara saw darkness with his eyes closed until he completed the handseal, and then the world opened up all around to him and his eyes opened to reveal not amber but pure white eyes. A few more seals followed the first handseal, chakra forming at the tips of his fingers as he could see a radial sphere all around, the two women he was training with were now aglow with vibrant chakra with everyone else that been in the academy's vicinity.
"It is Zahara." He said finally as his hands finally parted with his Byakugan active as his sight was trained on the water shield. Holding off his right hand, electrical chakra crackled and surged alive as a ball of it materialized. The lightning ball was suspended in the air in between his outstretched fingers, floating away from his skin like he were holding it physically when in actuality his chakra was holding the technique in place; a little use of the wall walking training as it were.
"It's best you use the beam, I'll supply this alongside it." Zahara said more as he continued with his gaze on the water jutsu their instructor had up. He sneered slightly as he knew his technique alone would not break it. "The chakra used in her defense is too much for one attack alone, combing that beam though will pinpoint the attack to a single point and may be enough to break it." Holding his right hand up with the lightning ball crackling with a popping noise, all he would need to do was release his control over the technique to send it careening toward Chie's watery sheild and would only do so in tandem with his ally's effort. -Lightning Ball - B Rank
"So whenever your ready." xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Nise was broken out of her reverie of relaxation by the arrival of someone else. Sumika had just finished defusing the wall, something that Nise confirmed by her inability to shape it anymore. She didn't go as far as making the hand sign for detonation, that was risking it a little too much. A man appeared, and gosh weren't those just so rare in Konoha these days, which brought her back to attention pretty quickly.
"Uhhhhhhhhhhh hey hi yes I'm Nise and Sumika, what's crack-a-lackin'?' Nise rose to attention as she stared at the man, verbally slipping up a little but he probably got the idea. It sounded somewhat urgent from how he was addressing them. Sumika was amazing in her own way too. She seemed quite care-free for someone who could've just set off an entire wall worth of explosives at a very close range. Nise admired that, though it was something she lacked herself. [OOC]:
Chie wanted to say something as she watched Jun learn a technique which was ultimately counter productive to their mission. After all, in order to break through an A-ranked defense, the two would have to korabo at a B-ranked potential two B-ranked skills in order to make an A-ranked strike. However, Jun just seemed so interested in learning the moved. She was honestly just a bit too enthralled watching the ordeal to stop her. As much as Chie preferred to get the training done as time efficiently as possible, she also clearly recalled the girl flinching at the notion of using her own chakra. Maybe this was all she felt comfortable doing with ninjutsu at this point? Chie was going to have to rethink how to work with Jun. This was not her typical student.
On the topic of the unusual, Zahara's eyes changed. Chie's eyebrows narrowed as they did. 'That has to mean something.' She observed as the activation of the dojutsu seemed to be an instinctual response to his heightened focus. The young woman was able to effortlessly recognize the lightning ball technique. The magnitude of control the man held over the ball was incredible. He was able to suspend the shot before it was fired. Unfortunately, with his level of skill, he had to know that the two of them were not going to pack the power together to break through the defense. "Time out!" Chie sighed as she broke her own technique, and the clone burst. Her arms folded in front of her chest as she looked at the two of them. "You do realize that defense was A-ranked, right? As in, one of the highest powered attacks a ninja could perform? Hopes and prayers will get you no where when it comes to the battle of ranks." She said sharply as her face was stern. However, the facade quickly broke, and a smile erupted from her. "But! I am very impressed with how you two were just going to go for it anyway. Even if you have a dumb plan, as long as you do it with a teammate then you have a much better chance of the two of you making it out of there." Chie took a step back as she looked around. There were other ninja here, and she didn't know if she really wanted to make this just a training marathon. "You guys want to get something to eat? Honestly I've been teaching for a few days straight now, and I can't remember the last time I didn't eat anything that wasn't microwaveable." She said as she scratched the back of her head with her right hand while her left hand fell limp. Since training didn't seem to be the right way to build up the bond of two ninja, maybe eating would work better. ◆￤ CHAKRAx 790/ 905x◆￤ STAMINAx 660/ 660x◆￤ RYOx 2,900 x◆￤ ACx 15,500 ◆￤ Ninjutsu / Ninjutsux◆￤ B-RANK x◆￤ Geninx◆￤ KONOHAGAKURExxxxxx

Jun felt a wave of disappointment at the situation. It passed quickly though, she knew better than to dwell on something. Sometimes no matter how hard you tried with something it amounted to just not being enough for the situation. And that was okay. Each set back was merely a set up for a come back. Jun would remember this moment and use it to push herself harder next time. "I'm sorry dude, I'm pretty new at all of this. I'll get it next time. She let the lightning fade from existence, a few fizzles and pops sounding off before the jutsu totally faded from existence. Jun did a double take when she looked at Zahara, raising an eyebrow at the intensity his face had taken on. The way his veins popped and his eyes seemed to glow, that a was one hell of a focus face. "I'm down for food, that worked up a serious hankering for some chow." Jun was absentmindedly rubbing at her stomach, losing interest in their failure and turning to Chie. She would follow the other two out, not really having a preference in what to eat.

"Nise and Sumika, I'm Ichiryu and I'm going to go straight to the point. Both of you have been selected to join me on a mission by the Hokage; a scouting mission to track a group that could be a near by our country and even perhaps the village. Let me be clear, only reconnaissance on a group of enemies."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The notion to cease the training there was a bit odd, Zahara held his hand up for a long moment as the crackling energy surged in his palm. Closing his eyes, he could still see everyone around him while he lowered his hand and then casually flicked it to the side in the vague direction of a unmarred target. Sphere of electrical chakra sailed through the air then, striking the target slightly off target but striking it nonetheless as hot lightning burned the wooden surface. Chakra ceased its flow and his eyes had ceased to be aglow of the energy with muscles relaxing once they reopened, world of black and white radial view now replaced with the norm and golden irises returned. He disliked using his eyes but they did come in handy when he had, it was normal for him to play off the trait though as he had done nothing at all.
"I don't come to recognize every technique thrown out there." Zahara said though he remembered the intensity of chakra focused in the watery shield. What he hadn't known was the allowance of power that Jun's technique would be able to contribute, perhaps it had been better if he had used two doses of the lightning ball? Zahara mentally wracked his head with a metaphorical newspaper equivalent with a thought -- the exercise was emphasis on technique and ninja synergy, not breaking a defense.
He stood there for a moment as she had gone on a small rant that confirmed his thoughts, though he was lost in thought while she spoke as he considered them both. "I could go for a steak. But first..." said simply as he held a hand to his chin, unsmiling but thinking a bit more. "Perhaps putting our strengths to their use would help with synergy. I am more akin to close ranged fighting, my ninjutsu is supplementary of my fighting style." Zahara explained with arms folding across his chest, a smirk returned.
"Hnn. But seriously, a steak's always nice. Maybe we can learn a bit about each other first while we're at it."
"Reconass... recono... reconnaissance?!" Man, San must have actually been mad if she put Sumika on a mission that would require the little spitfire to sit on her hands - perhaps even literally. To say one of the loudest people in the village was ill suited to tracking and watching over acting would be an understatement. Sumika had, well, a habit of impulsiveness that probably made her more a facet of the mission than a member of the team running it. She had, after all, already been that for another shinobi seeking advancement. Perhaps this was another of those situations, but then, what would happen if the girl ran rampant over this mission. "I don't get to do anything exciting on that type of mission though!" To be fair, Sumika was a terrible ability fit for the role as well. Her iron sand was heavy, and unsuited to sustained flight. The Land of Fire was not ripe with silicate materials for her normal sand levitation, and her little sand eyeball was better used to see behind her than across a ravine. If they screwed the pooch and got into a fight, she'd be useful. Otherwise? Hardly. She grumbled a bit and folded her arms, waiting for them to be off so they could get this over with.

Jun figured she should get some of her bloodline abilities out of the way. She recalled a lot of them from when she was young. Back then there were so many of her people just milling around and only a handful of them were actually militant in anymore. A lot of the abilities from her lineage were inspired by the brilliance of the sun. Every ray of light was packed with so much natural power. Softly she spoke, bringing to mind one of the most basic jutsu she could think of. A gentle light emanated from her, spreading out in every direction. It lit up the area near her in a dazzling array. Jun walked in random patterns and the light followed. "I know I can make something glow, just like me. It's like having it borrow my light." Chakra sewn in to her words brought to life the jutsu. Her slender fingers picked the slingshot from her belt and held it before her eyes. It became so luminous, making it an easy spot from even afar. Using that same notion Jun held her hand out with her palm facing upward. She focused on the center of her hand, whispering sweet nothings to mold her chakra. A shapeless blossom of her light bloomed in to existence with an audible 'pop'. Her lips pursed as she leaned in and blew gently on the orb, sending outward towards a nearby target. The ball stuck to it and flickered softly.
Jun knew she could shape that light and make it volatile. Even she had a hard time dealing with a bright morning and her entire bloodline was based on around making really strong lights. In a fight that would be handy. She thought about Zahara and those strange eyes of his, it had to be some sort of unique ability, maybe even a power like hers that was passed down. Whatever it was it probably gave him an edge in fight. A surge of her chakra and she pushed it outward from the center of her being, flashing powerfully enough that caused some nearby rando to flinch and groan in annoyance. She didn't want to be caught up in a situation then, so Jun strung a few seals together and molded her chakra. She locked eyes on a spot across the training room and focused intently for a moment. In another flash she was gone and with another she reappeared. "Magic appear!" Jun quietly exclaimed, wiggling her fingers in the air like a magician. But that exit wasn't quite enough. The damn flashing lights each time she did anything just gave away her position regardless. So once again she moved her lips in mystical ways that weaved chakra. That had been something she learned to do long ago in place of hand seals and it was damned useful. One time Jun had been so high that her body was useless and slumped in the corner. Her bottle of water had been on the other side of the room and she could have died of dehydration had it not been for her ability to substitute with a chair so she didn't have to get up and walk. The light around her began to bend and the color drained from her being. Slowly her shape disfigured until she resembled the nearby dummy.
Jun gave it a bit to rest and let that dude go away with no extra problems. The rest of the abilities she intended to learn were a bit more intensive anyway, and she wasn't exactly looking to accidentally burn someone or otherwise cause permanent blindness. Jun pushed her hands away from her body and sent out a blast of radiant light away from her. It rained down on the area near her like feathers falling from a bird. Once the tiny orbs settled they began to sear in to the flooring beneath her, small trails of smoke marking the position of nearly all of them. Jun had already learned how to create a shadow clone, which was a higher level ability than the one she was about to learn. The concept was the same, except the clone was shaped from light. For some reason that seemed to click easier in her head than making something out of nothing. First Jun gathered light in to a ball and slowly made it humanoid. Then, just like anything that can reflect, she made it take her features. The clone solidified and looked back at her. That same unsettling feeling from before rolled through her being, so she let the clone disperse and looked away from the flash.
On top of being a sensor already there was an ability Jun could learn that would amplify her powers of detecting anything or anyone who was trying to hide from her. The world of ninjas was so damn crazy when it came to the things people could do. If Jun, a little scrublet kunoichi, could manage to turn herself invisible to the naked eye she imagined that someone with more experience under their belt and power at their disposal could probably do the same or something even better. Like a dandelion loosing its seeds Jun spread these little fireflies out from her. They were just tiny lights, but the feeling still made her warm and hazed . Hundreds of the fireflies swarmed outward and collected on anything they could. So many blips of information crowded her thoughts that Jun had to stay still for a second, trying to organize those in to something coherent. Creating light wasn't the only thing her clan could do. They could also take the power already present and amplify it. She focused on the light filtering in through the windows and tried to trace a ray down to where it landed. After losing focus a couple of times she finally managed to see a kunai knife that someone carelessly left lying around. The light reflected off of it at the right angles, and there she concentrated. The light became brighter and brighter until Jun was satisfied that if someone looked at it they'd be like 'aaarrgh my eyes I'm blind for roughly five moments or so!'.
This was beginning to get tiring. Jun was feeling the draw from exerting her chakra so much in such a short span of time. She wiped the sweat from her brow and rolled her head on her shoulders, cracking her neck once and scaring herself. It felt like she could just so easily snap her neck in two when she did that and it always spooked her. Jun redirected the energy in the fireflies and focused again, lazily mushing her hands together to create seals to remold her chakra. This time the light manifested above her. She was surrounded in a hail of sharp rods of light, small and thin and resembling senbon needles. At once they launched downward, thudding in to the ground. These were hella sharp, that much she knew just from looking at how far in to the wood they had pierced. Something like that could easily make someone in to a pin cushion.
A lot of jutsu seemed to share similar ideas. It appeared that the creators of these abilities took a lot of inspiration from each other or the natural world around them. Jun wondered just how many abilities could shoot like a giant arrow of some different element. Thinking of it like that, as just a piece of a much larger picture made it simpler to understand. This light she formed was an angry one, a volatile ability that took shape in her arms. She imagined herself like her slingshot, the device for aiming and launching. Her arrow shot forward with the strangest of whistling sounds, so quick that she blinked and lost track of it until it connected with a dummy and literally exploded it. The power of this was so raw and intense that even the wooden wall behind it was melted through and the area around it had either become scorched or had caught flame.
Jun now wanted to seriously take a nap. There was one more ability that she wanted to add to her arsenal before running to catch up with Chie and Zahara. It would make her a serious asset in a fight. It was a flash much like the other ones that could cause blindness, the difference here was that this one was so ridiculously bright and laced with her chakra that even if someone was closing their eyes it would blind them. Even if they were hiding behind a door with a hood over their head with their eyes over their hands it would blind them. That was gnarly as all get out. Jun could light up like a lantern and then bolt if she wanted, or set up a perfect opportunity for someone else to open up a can of whoop a** on someone. Jun was sure to walk away from everyone who would potentially walk in on her doing this. The migraines this would cause would probably make her the least popular person around. So when Jun was finally alone she sat down and focused with all her being. A blip of light shot up from her head and exploded soundlessly. The entire room lit up so bright that Jun couldn't discern any color before it dissipated. She knew she had done it right, it felt powerful.
And then a powerful grumble from her stomach nearly had her doubling over in pain. She leaned to the side and let her body rest on the floor for a second. "Naar more training. Too hunger." Jun muttered unintelligibly. The girl eventually pushed herself to her feet and tried to find where Chie and Zahara had gone.

"Reallym Sumika? This was a direct order by the Hokage, Are you really going to deny that? Oh and we had information that they could be affiliated with the UHV , a dangerous organization that is taking some of our people and turning them into slaves. So yea, big deal. So is there anything you need before we head out?" It shouldn't matter what a person wants when there is an order given by the Hokage. "How about you Nisengo?"
The study was a bit quiet for the time of day, everyone was absent save for her. Left alone to review the day's lessons, Ayame sat with her back to a corner and scrolls piled all around her. Blue eyes filled of delight and passion, she touched each scroll's header. Her intent focus was on memorizing the many different medical practices on the trade of her family, they were mostly Botanists and Medics but she aspired to become more.
The first thing a medic would need to learn was to reconnect large wounds. Peering over the scroll's contents, this was just that. With chakra, the user could reattach the flesh roughly. It would be just enough before more precise healing could be done. Next was a sort of circulation that didn't deal with the blood, but energy and chakra. With a connection of herself or a donor to a patient, the transfers could begin. This would be a good use for those suffering from tenketsu rot or a Hyuuga's assualt. Cleaniness was the surgeon's most important key detail to keep in mind. No amount of healing in the world will do any good if the wounds were to get infected. So, Cleanse would be the saving grace to prevent deathly infections to the body for that very purpose. When someone takes a heavy blow, sometimes their body would be in shock. With fine chakra control and working with the hands, the medic could assist in recovery. This could ease swelling, sprains and ease the severity of other wounds with such a technique. Now not all wounds would be taken with a clean through and through, as sometimes an arrow or shuriken would be lodged in the wound. With careful and precise chakra control with the hands, the medic would be able to work foreign objects from a body. The process would prevent serious damage from something like a barbed arrow or hooked barb from tearing the flesh upon removal. Within the same domain of medical ninjutsu were the more useless practices of cosmetology. Chakra can be used to edit, control and even alter the body's natural appearance. While useless in a practical standing, this could assist in a long term disguise for someone or perhaps the medic themself. Sometimes when the thread technique would not suffice and sufficient materials are not on hand, a wound would need to be stitched. With visible strand of chakra, the medic could begin to work it into a wound and commence a sort of stitching. It was a delicate work but would come to use in an emergency out in the battlefield. Following up on the process of closing wounds, the longer term method would be more application of chakra. With working the medical energy from the medic's hands, they would be able to control the body's natural fibrin. This would help the patient's body recover in the long term with additional assistence. The medic could do more than just work the body and mend the body. With a bit of chakra to aid them, they can use their own knowledge and the chakra to diagnose the body. This method can find underlying problems that a normal doctor would otherwise overlook through mundane means such as tenketsu closes. Sometimes opperating on a patient will be a dangerous exposure to chemicals, poisons and other contageious elements. The medical ninja can invoke chakra to shroud themselves in a protective manner. Through this, the medic can remain free of pestilence while they work on their patient to prevent spreading the contagions to themself. The way of the medical shinobi is often mistaken to be only the saints and healers of the ailed. However there are darker, much more heinous methods of using medical chakra. The feeling of pain can easily be turnt up or be used as a means of torture to a interrogation victim while also be an offensive tool for those with wounds already. Another method was to actually attack the blood circulation in a person's body. Chakra can affect the victim's body, muscles and other parts of the body to rupture cells. Internal bleeding is a real possibility with also intense bruising to near fatal amounts of trauma with excessive uses of the chakra. If increasing pain sensitivity, breaking bones or dealing heavy internal trauma wasn't enough there are other evil methods. With a jolt of electrical energy through the air and chakra, the body of a victim can be subjected to a painful jolt of static, this in turn attacking the nerves. Like being hit by a taser, it was perhaps one of the more tame and humane techniques that didn't leave lasting injury to a target -- or just a set up for more evil techniques. | Medical E-Ranks
Ayame stood up from her desk and looked at the pile of scrolls as she smiled a little, her path to becoming a shinobi had broadened her horizons a bit more. Now a break was in order for her to expand her ninjutsu repertoire with the explicit permission she had obtained from San. In her hands was a more powerful technique that someone with her clearance wouldn't normally have. But it was a rather tame technique in comparison to some of the more widespread destruction others produced. In essence, it was a sphere of constant rotation. In fact, that had been its literal name with spiralling sphere, the Rasengan. She held out her hand in front of her then, narrowing eyes. Chakra fluctuated around her body as she concentrated. There a small little orb of chakra began to kick up, swirling and spinning. The use of shape and nature transformations were at work here as she still kept concentration. Her body ached at the excessive use of chakra there and struggled to keep the hand steady. But focus and perseverance kept her true to the concentration of chakra. After a long few minutes of practice and dedication, she started up the sphere's circulation again. In the palm of her hand, the existence of the chakra sphere came to fruition finally. Although her wind nature didn't necessarily augment the jutsu, it kept a constant spin regardless. She took the hand with the Rasengan and turned it to one of the dummies nearby. What happened next had been truly a spectacular fashion. The sphere dug into wood, several rotations of energy tore and ripped the center of the wooden dummy apart like a spinning drill. | Rasengan
"Woohoo, yeah let's go! I'm all goods about kinds of recon!" Nise replied, confidently plowing through her mess of a sentence. "How much prep time do we get?" The UHV was liable to be a serious threat. It was good to have Sumika here too in case something went tits up. Nise's giant clay pelican flew over next to her, ready to be mounted.
