"I'm sorry! It's just.. I'm nervous... I've never had a sensei before.. and I don't think you like me!" The girl became so emotional that leaves began to multiply and she could not stop them. Soon, the entire room was covered in mishapened blue leaves.

"Oh i see...well...if you really want to calm down..." He said through all the leaves before putting his hand on her shoulder. "I don't like alot of people..." He smiled, almost compasionately like what he was saying was true, as the leaves floated off in a mysterious wind that swept the dojo. With his hand still on her shoulder he said. "Now let's try controling it this time..."

She would have blushed, but he smelled and she desperatly wanted him to remove his hand. But she picked up a blue leaf that was left behind, took a deep breath and began to focus on that I-want-to-impress-you-feeling and a greed leaf, that was correctly proportional, appeared beside the blue one.

"Good, so you di remember a bit...thats the first step...and how about the target practice?" a stone dart board appeared behind Kaimen as he handed her a few Kunai. "I alos taught you this as well..." His little test would prove effective soon enough.

She shruged. Perhaps he thinks one of the rocks he threw hit my head and made me forget everything. She tossed the Kunai; the first one hit the center, the second a little to the left, and the last one bit the first one and bounced off.

"mm hmm...but they didn't go through...where was your chakra?" he could tel she hadn't been maditating daily...she seemed almost as powerful, or maybe less powerful, since the first day.

She sighed heavliy and allowed more Kunai to appear in her hand. It took only seconds to call up her chakra this time and the kunai shot foward and all but one went through. The one that didn't make it through was only a few inches away from its mark. But Pana was content with the results.

"Uh huh..." Kai only nodded as he walked out of the dojo. "C'mon..." The night was cool, crisp, very airy as the air was filled the moons mysterious glow, Kai Hopped into a tree to prepare his next lesson.

Pana looked up into the sky. The moons were beautiful. Her biggest goal was to be able to sculpt the sky... arange the stars in her own patterns, and allow the moon to take over the sun and make the day dissapear for ever. But she was no where near that power.
She noticed a cloud begining to drift over one of the moons, so she flicted her rist and the cloud parted slightly but it did not last. The cloud soon covered the moons making Pana slip into darkness.

And Zen watched from far away. Truly this was his old students final test before anything really began. He smiled for a moment before dropping from his perch in a tree. Landing he merged with the ground going autistic to the signals of the world. He seemed to just disappear from everything.

Pananakin Pana looked up into the sky. The moons were beautiful. Her biggest goal was to be able to sculpt the sky... arange the stars in her own patterns, and allow the moon to take over the sun and make the day dissapear for ever. But she was no where near that power. She noticed a cloud begining to drift over one of the moons, so she flicted her rist and the cloud parted slightly but it did not last. The cloud soon covered the moons making Pana slip into darkness. "Hey over here..." Kai said aloud in the tree. "The basis, of maybe all the elements, but mainly tsuchi, is to become one with it, literally. Ho, though it focuses on fire, is more intune with rage, Kaze, intune with serenity and abruptness, does not match the awkward style of mizu or the eagerness of rai however...Tsuchi, is all of that. It is dicipline, it is angry it is calm, soft, strong and it can grow, die and live on, the other elements can do that. Tsuchi in a sense is more human than anything else, after all, we do come from it. In this exercise, your objective...is to become one with your surround...but not in simple mediation...like so...." Slowly, Kai placed his hands onto the tree branch as his body began to glow with chakra, as did the tree. His arm started to turn to wood as it seemed to creep up into his body, his whole structure, even his clothing were becoming a plant like tsuchi state, though the basic tsuchi state consists of everything tsuchi has to offer, this was most likely, easier tan controling yourself as sand. His body, finnaly being absorbed by the tree branch was nowhere to be seen, until a piece of the trunk started to move and s**t, transforming into his face as he spoke. "Just like that..." His head of wood stretched all the way over to where Pana was like it was growing on its own, then snapped back. "Ounce you become it...there are other methods you may use to control it..." With that his face dissapeared and the tree, the whole tree this time began to take on the form of his body. A large tree from of Kai stood in front of Pana with his roots still in the ground. "You will sleep here, like this...outside, in or on the tree...what you should focus on is not just doing some silly chants and tapping your hands together, its as easy as, build your chakra, transfer it through you to the tree, begin symbiosis. And if you've been meditating on your chakra...then this shouldn't bee too hard..." The tree returned back to normal with Kai standing on his branch. "Begin..."

Pana was speechless. How many time in your life do you see a man get sucked into a tree and the become it? But she did as she was told. She hesitently stolled up to the tree and pressed her hand onto the bark.
It hurt her hand at first. The rigidness of the trunk did not allow her to fully grip the tree.
She closed her eyes and called her chakra. It took a couple of moments and Pana could not tell if anything was happening. She wanted to reposition her hand since the bark was so ruff, but she noticed something. She could feel her skin slipping through the ridges of the bark and touch the smoother wood underneath. It was quite a sensation, so she concentrated on it more. The feeling began to travle up her arm. It was almost like if ants were crawling every inch of her skin.
She opened her eyes. "AAHHH!!!" Her arm had bark growing up it. Her arm literaly became the tree and it caused her to panic. She tried to pull her arm away, but even the slightest tug made it seem like she was going to pull her arm out of socket. So she stopped. She tried to move her arm, but she couldn't. She tried wiggling her fingers and to her suprise, a branch close to her began to giggle. She was becoming the tree, and she was estatic!

And a small little bug the color of sand watched with great amusement. Truly she was an excellent study, but how far could she go, with out loosing herself to the element itself. Some people had said the Tsuchi students were crazy, and they would have been right. To spread ones consciousness required a large worldview. Very few were able to do it with any regularity and those that did, seemed to be lost after a period of time. Zenrai continued to prowl about however closing himself off from the world. He was content wandering its paths.

Kai watched as he saw Pana begin the sort of osmosis like technique. "Focus..." the only word that exited his mouth as she in her exctasy began to break loose.

She settled down and tried to go into the tree. It was still nights and it was hard for her to see what she was doing. She stretched her arms out and when her chest hit the tree, she couldn't breath. Her air escaped her and she was not able to breathe out. She didn't understand what was goind on. The tree began to shake vilolantly as she tried to pull away.
She knew what the problem was. She had to breathe like a tree. Not through her mouth but threw the leaves, but she was to scared to concentrate. Her face began to turn blue and many of the branches of the tree began to wilt.
