Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yuzuki looked over at Kori and began to explain what was going on here. ”Well you see Kori, I accidently dropped my house keys into Tsuchia-sensei’s mouth and the only way I could get them back was with my tongue.” To prove her point, Yuzuki pulled Tsuchia closer to her and gave a very passionate tongue battle to prove that she was true to her word. After a few moments of tongue battles with Tsuchia she broke off and looked over at her friend once again. ”Then, clumsy us, we slipped, fell and I landed on her hand. Oh! Tsuchia-sensei was going to give me a one on one lesson in oral skills, but… I suppose if you really wanted to join us, I guess I could let the both of you join in…”
Yuzuki was starting to enjoy this game of deception, she wondered if she was doing good enough for Kori to believe her, just to be sure she was letting her hands roam over some rather… interesting… places on her teacher, who was still hovering above her with her hand up the skirt of her dress and her hand on her bosom. Yuzuki pulled her teacher closer to her, as if pleading to finish what they had supposedly started. She found Tsuchia surprising cool headed about this, Yuzuki was having fun with this little game of theirs, but Tsuchia seemed oddly cool about it as well. Maybe her teacher really did have a thing for her cutest, most deserving and favorite student? Well, she supposed that such a love would only blossom for a little while before society and fate at large would tear them apart. How cruel fate could be to those who were bound by the red thread of destiny! Alas, forbidden desires and shadowed pleasures would seldom make a couple, and it was here the Yuzuki feared that her teacher and student romance would come to a dying end. She would have to break it to Tsuchia softly… she was but a fleeting things that would remain immortalized in her memory as the woman who stole her first kiss… the devious thing… that little succubus… but, at the same time it was a symbol of her Youth, here for but a few moments then passing in the wind, just like the Sakura blossoms come spring.

That melodramatic bullshit didn’t stop Yuzuki’s twisted little source of amusement though.

”So, are we making this a foursome or are we going to meet up with you guys in a couple of minutes when we’re done here?

Yuichi Shizen

”Oh? Is that the excuse the men are going with for a poor performance now adays?” Yuzuki teased as she stood up herself, regaining her balance before she leaned over the rock, placing her elbow on the rock and her chin in her palm as she watched Kori walk away in a frazzled, broken huff. Yuzuki got a twisted grin on her face as she watched, that girl was too tight and needed to loosen up a little bit. Maybe some playful girl time would do her good? She looked down at Yuichi who seemed to be exhausted still, it was going to be obvious that they weren’t going to go on a mission any time soon. Yuzuki pushed herself and spun playfully around on her heel to face the opposite direction.
”Well, that was a little amusing, but I think I’m going to go and practice some more jutsu for a little while. See you guys later~!” Yuzuki made her way towards a patch of trees where she could ‘practice in private,’ though as soon as she hit the treeline the happiness that she put up on her face for her friends withered off her face as she came to a stop in the shadows of the tree. She let what she had discussed with her sensei roll around in her head as she raised her hand to where the odd throbbing was occurring inside of her chakra network. She slowly started to walk towards the center of the woods where she could think things through a little more and digest what she was told. Her shoulders felt heavy all of a sudden and sapped of strength, like her knees were going to give out or something. So… she had a chakra monster inside of her… that made her a Jinchuriki… but… what did it mean to be a Jinchuriki? Would she even be able to handle the chakra monster that was inside of her? What was the chakra monster exactly? Why was she suddenly in possession of it instead of the other boy?
Her mind was abuzz with questions and muddled with half answers and false truths that she had heard second hand, rumours and hearsay from different people. She suddenly felt very alone within the village and wished she had her Paw-paws wisdom or at least his comfort.

She wondered deeper into the woods where she found a large fat tree that she would frequent as a child, it was the best one in the whole forest - she would tell others- It could hold you up to see the world and the best part, it was strong enough to hold an adult. Yuzuki raised her hand and placed it on the tree trunk, slowly stroking the rough wood of tree that seemed so much smaller to her than it did when she was younger. She looked up for a moment before she raised her hand to grab the first branch and pulled herself up the tree one branch at a time. She relived a few memories of her past as she crawled slowly up the tree until she came to one of the top branches where she could look out and see the forest below. A far cry from the world that she told others about, but when you’re young, the world was just too big to contain within ones knowledge, so she supposed the forest was good enough for a child to view the world as. There were worse things that you could associate with it.
Yuzuki dangled her legs over the branch where she sat quietly and took in the world that was surrounding her, the birds were starting to return to the forest to decorate them with their songs. It was peaceful here, it did her good to feel the tranquility after the brash and sudden chaos that fill the day before. She breathed deeply before closing her eyes and relaxing as best she could. Bowing her head slightly Yuzuki couldn’t help but wonder something, it was the one question that repeatedly bubbled to the top of her head: Was she a monster? Would Grandpa have been disappointed or even ashamed of her? God, that thought was far more traumatic than anything that she was already subject to. Where did she start? What was the best way to move forwards? Was she now the tailed beast that resided in her or was she still Yuzuki? Yuzuki felt a little lost right now, and not sure what to do about it. Yuzuki was used to just putting her head down and charging thought life, struggling and conquering her trials one step at a time. Was this going to be different? Was this the same thing only different? She knew nothing about being a Jinchuriki, where could she learn more about it? Yuzuki opened her eyes again and turned them upwards towards the canopy. What did she do now? Where did she start? She hadn’t felt this way in years and she wasn’t sure she appreciated it.

Taking what she learned in the previous training, she would affect three functions of the brain, and use four of the brain’s hemispheres against itself, the only difference was she needed to figure out how place another layer over the initial illusion. First, she would implant the chakra imbalance into the brain, just like how she did it before but this time she was to weave her chakra together tight enough that it would work together with the original. The main target would be the Thalamus and the Hypothalamus; by provoking slightly the brains responses to emotions through the sensory impulses, nothing would change really, spare the face that she would be weaving more of an illusion with the first layer of her genjutsu, just like she did with her night-terror jutsu that she taught herself earlier. She would have to find a way to trigger second one when enough chakra was dispersed or the pain receptor in the Thalamus was stimulated. Once the feeling of panic was installed she’d have to block the logical impulses that the brain would give off so the illusion seemed more real and convincing, then when the second one was found out or triggered she would create a perfectly feasible and likely illusion that would displace and offset what they just saw, the Cerebrum would probably still be trying to override the awkwardness of the horror that it was shown in the previous illusion so it would most likely be willingly to accept this new reality as what is really happening. The challenge of the jutsu was once again going to be weaving the chakra together and have the one thread of it not interfere with the initial illusion, because these two illusions were going to be so vastly different, she was going to have to lessen the amount of chakra in the second thread so that the only real illusion that was being seen as the image of herself that she would bait her opponent with and then position herself to strike.


Once the Thalamus was infiltrated and taken over, she would prod and poke at the Hypothalamus with her chakra to conjure the flight or fight response if the body and weave the images of horror that was going to be the bulk of the illusion. It seemed full proof, by using the impulses of the pain reactions or feed off the chakra it would be the barb in the jutsu that would make it that much better and give her and advantage. With the brain that far out of whack the rest of the body should follow, after that manipulating the Cerebrum of the brain and provoking sensations and memories with the chakra’s energy, after that manipulate the Thalamus in concert with the Cerebrum to create a realistic feel for the illusion to create the perfect mixture of reality and fantasy in the human brain. The other senses would be memory or stimulated through the chakra manipulation by combining the smells and sensations that the brain had already come across and stored into memory. Heart rate would increase and adrenaline would cause the mind to cloud judgement and believe the illusion even more. It all depended on how sound and how easily shaken her opponent was going to be and how quick they were to pick up on the double layering of the jutsu. The main plan with this sort of jutsu was that the brain would be eager to perceive the second layer as reality, making an opening for her when their opponent let their defense down slightly.
The use of this jutsu was going to ride more on the response of the individual and how quickly the Cerebrum could recover from the shock and trauma of the initial onslaught of the more horrific images and how willing it was going to be to see the more realistic images before it as truth, that was going to be the trickier part, she would need to really pay attention to the surrounds and use the tricks she learned in the Double false surrounding technique, the trick would be making that illusion weak enough to not interfere, but strong enough to withstand the initial disruption of the first with either pain or chakra. She decided that the best way would be to trigger the second one like how she planned to trigger the secondary illusion of the Double false surrounding technique, that way it could be weak enough to not be noticed at first or interfering with the first illusion but then be able to stick around after the first one was dispersed.


Giving her charka a break, she decided to work on something a little easier. The technique was something of a bait and switch that was caused by an optical illusion. Yuzuki knew that the timing was going to be the tricky part of all this but it was the most important part of this technique. Yuzuki fetched and prepared two Demon wind shuriken Yuzuki found these a trifle overkill herself but they would be the easiest things to use and keep track of the second shuriken. This way she could learn and improve her timing with the skill until she was confident in it. Yuzuki found a target dummy for her to practice on and started to throw the oversized bladed death in the direction of her target…
Only to miss horribly.
Yuzuki’s eyebrow twitched in annoyance, it seemed that she was a little out of practice, but that was easy enough to remedy. Her regular shuriken precision was pretty good it was trying to throw this monstrosity that she needed to work on a little bit. She started to work on getting her precision with the usually unfamiliar tool back again, though she was have a bit of difficulty at first she was slowly starting to remember her training at the academy, throwing it around she was the hang of it again, the lessons were inching their way back out of her memory until she had finally gotten back on target. Well, one was down, now she needed to time her attacks until they were perfect. Yuzuki mentally winced to herself as she realized that her technique was going to be needing adjusting during various times of the day. She needed to get the shuriken in the shadow of the other one in order for it to work properly. Well… here went nothing…

Yuzuki was indeed getting her practice in with the shadows and their angles, after some hair pulling, teeth grinding frustration getting the timing right, she was finally starting to get the timing, though it was getting pretty close to nightfall so… she was going to have to hurry with her training or she risked the loss of her shadows. Yuzuki wiped the sweat from her brow as she continued to hulk these stupidly large shuriken around, it was actually harder work than she thought, she had practiced so much that her arms was agonizingly sore from the repeated motion of throwing the giant ninja start. She doubted that the weight of the damn thing did her any favours either. With the last dying of the sun, Yuzuki wound up once more and tossed her Shuriken in rapid succession, working out the final kinks to that needed to be smoothed over in order for this jutsu to work efficiently. Yuzuki continued to practice until she got the timing spot on, she could work any angle with the shadows as the cover for her second Demon Wind Shuriken. Yuzuki decided that enough was enough now, she had managed to accomplish what she had been after, she looked behind her to see her Demon Wind Shuriken lodged defiantly into the dummy where they would stay till morning, bearing mute testament to her triumph.
That and her arms were too damn sore to get them out of the dummy…


Yuzuki was lazily tossing her shuriken around at the dummies, she was kind of bored but her mind was always twisting and turning with ideas. As she was retrieving her shuriken from the log when she was struck down with a case of the ‘lazys’ and tried to think of a way that she could practice without actually getting up and retrieving her ninja tools afterwards. She sat down and pondered for a moment then started to riffle through her ninja tools and pulled out some stretchy wire and attached it to her shuriken. Taking a seat once more she tossed her weapons against their intended target and then tried to retrieve her weapons with the strings that she attached earlier. After a couple of tugs Yuzuki found that they were still lodged in good, so she gave it a vicious pull, finally dislodging them and sending them rocketing towards her with some wicked velocity. Yuzuki’s eyes went wide and she dove for cover to avoid falling victim to her own weapons. Looking up, Yuzuki’s wheels started to turn in her mind. Well, that was an interesting little discovery… she sat up and shortened the length of the wire that she attached to her shuriken and started to get some momentum with them by spinning it around her body. She started to experiment with shortening and lengthening of the wire. It took some concentration and Yuzuki was having some problems getting things right. She was having some troubles with the angles and with the manipulation was more complicated than she initially thought. She decided that she was going to do something simpler till she got a basic idea of what was happening with the angles along with the reaction to the Shuriken on the wire that was attached to them. Yuzuki decided to start with some easier things to get a feel for what she could actually do with this technique. Yuzuki started with throwing her shuriken but purposefully missed her target, she the shuriken reach its limit before snapping backwards and coming at the back of the practice dummy. Yuzuki continued doing this for some time, she adjusted her tactics and started to learn to readjust the trajectory and the time that the shuriken came back to her with subtle manipulations from her fingers. Though she was still a little raw with the talent she was getting more and more confident about how to manipulate and use this to her advantage. She was starting to discover that the tactics that she could use with this technique that she stumbled upon by accident (and almost killing herself in the process…) held an infinite number of strategies that she would be able to employ with it. She still has some polishing to do with the technique but over all she was more than satisfied with where she was with it. Yuzuki was about to remove the wire when she stopped herself, she would probably find some use for this later, so she left them on and went about her business. Perhaps she would come back and play around with them a little more and see if she couldn’t evolve the ability a little more.

Yuzuki was still tinkering with her Manipulated shuriken technique when those wheels started to turn again, if she could bind her opponent with these threads, would she be able to ignite them once they were caught, the major problem with that sort of thing was that she was going to have to use some of her overkill jutsus in order to pull this off. That would probably take out her wire works too, so that would set her back some. She certainly didn’t want to risk losing her prey over something like that so she started to wonder about some other way that she could keep her opponents captured and still put them into an icky burny death… or at least a maiming. She could settle with that. She looked over at the practice area and tried to find something that wasn’t going to get set on fire and then be rendered useless. Her eyes finally fell on a tall, thin rock that she decided to turn her fiery wrath upon. She turned and face her target and spun her wire bound shuriken around her for a while till she was sure that she was getting her rhythm and then spun her shuriken around the rock, she knew that no opponent that wasn’t either paralysed, blind or rock stupid would get caught in what she threw but that was beside the point, she knew that she was going to be working on that, so for now she was content with the binding. Yuzuki closed her eyes and concentrated on what she wanted to do with this technique… she then realized that she wasn’t sure what she should be doing to make this work.

Well… this was off to a good start…

She brought the wire to her lips and started to try and formulate a plan to make this work, she rolled a few things around in her mind but so far nothing was adding up to what she was going for. It wasn’t until she thought of sending her chakra down he wire itself and igniting it either while she was pushing it down or after she got it to her intended target. But then that posed another question… how was she going to do this? She never tried anything like this before and she wasn’t sure if what she was doing would even pan out. Yuzuki remained standing the, her hands in the tiger seal and the wire held firmly between her lips. After a few minutes her shoulders dropped, she was really bad with not preparing things beforehand… but then again, how did you prepare for something that you thought of off the top of your head in the moment? Yuzuki supposed that she couldn’t beat herself up too much over it, instead, she chose to focus that annoyed energy into scratching her brain trying to figure this out. Okay, well, she could start with a few ideas that bubbled to the top of her head and then work from there. She tried a few things but unfortunately some tries were more successful than others, either paving the way to a better understanding. Yuzuki was starting to encroach on spending the better part of the day on this and she was still no closer than she was when she first started with this little task that she set herself up. She continued to pick at the ability, though she had to admit that she seemed to have hit a snag in her jutsu. There was just something that she wasn’t getting, and it seemed that the main problem was that she couldn’t bring her chakra down the wire fully and it would die off prematurely before it reached the rock that she had within her wiry grasp. Yuzuki breathed out a frustrated growl before she sat down on the spot where she stood, too frustrated to continue and too stubborn to quit. Yuzuki found herself at an impasse when it came to this jutsu so she just sat there and brooded about not being able to figure out what was going on so that she could improve it and actually make a jutsu from it. Yuzuki closed her eyes and crossed her arms under her chest, her right eyebrow twitching as she rolled through what she was doing so that hopefully she could find what she was doing wrong. Eventually she opened her eyes and paused, she was pretty sure that she may have stumbled on the answer that was eluding her.

Yuzuki stood up and brought her hands to make the signs that she needed in order to shape her chakra from her stomach, she took a few deep breaths through her nose before she exhaled a string of kneaded chakra before sending it quickly down the line of her wire, she was starting to speculate that she was far too slow sending it down the line before, and that was why it wasn’t doing what it was supposed to do. The flames would eat up the chakra far too fast and it became volatile far too soon. She had discovered that mixing her chakra with more or less chakra in ratio with the oxygen, with her experimentation she was sure that she finally got that damn combination of chakra and oxygen right, when the chakra left her lips it ignited into the spectral blue fire that lit up the darkening sky and cast eerie shadows on the trees and rocks that surrounded where Yuzuki was practicing this. She watched and continued to push the chakra down the wire as fast as she could, noting that fire was still staying strong on her end while it wrapped around the rest of the wire. Yuzuki watched as the rock that she had captured earlier started to hiss and crackle under the heat. Yuzuki stopped blowing the stream of chakra out of her lips and watched as the fire rode the wire down to the rock before it disappeared.
