Taking a deep breath Shizuka would continue her walk through the canyon by following the sound of the nearby water from the shore. It sounded so soothing that it made her calm down before she felt the breeze from the water hit her. Looking over the ledge of the cliff, she noticed a group of people down by the water, she adjusted her goggles a bit hoping the people weren't just crazy giant scorpions that would feed her to their grubs. "Cool! A bunch of ninja's training!" She rushed down the path to reach the water to meet the people there. Upon closer look there was a couple of faces that Shizuka recognized; Shin-kun, Keiko-sensei and Gilgamesh-sensei...but if they were going to train Shinratsu...why didn't they invite her? Where was Chronos? Was she the only one without a sensei? The blonde henka member grumbled and an annoyed look on her face. "Leaving me out, eh? Am I really that useless?"

Shin looked absolutely livid. With arms crossed and right index finger tapping impatiently... The Hyouton clansmember huffed, tossing his low ponytail with a quick turn of the head. He didn't have time to paste a sarcastic remark on Giglamesh though...as apparently Shizuka showed up. "Good afternoon, Henka-san." He said somewhat coldly, eying the rookie kunoichi through half-lidded gray-blue eyes. The pale sunlight seemed to make them take an almost silvery sheen, gently illuminating his rather feminine features. If only that semi-annoyed expression didn't mar his features...
Seeming to realize Shizuka would be hurt though she wasn't the object of his annoyance, Shin's eyes widened before he murmured apologetically. "O-ohayo...Shizuka-chan..." He corrected his previous, icy and rather too-formal greeting.
It would seem that Giglamesh wasn't the only one who changed. Shinratsu was at least making an attempt at being friendly now.

Giglamesh would look back to rai his the kid he was thinking of takeing as his student....but he had shown a visage of possible true colors, much like a child he attention span had complety gone one eighty on them he instead of following was now flaing about swiming around in the water, a massive vein would pulse at his right temple. "Are you going to train, or are you going to ******** swim all day boy!?" Giglamesh would then notice another noticeable face it was of the henka girl from the last class, what the hell was the a class reunion, gig had came with rai and kei to train him but more and more are appearing. "...Perhaps this could aid me even more...." Giglamesh would walk over to a rock and he would sit atop it setting the scrolls down so they stood around him like four corners of a square.
Suddenly giglamesh would feel the grasp he had known before and didnt like the eye's of such intensity that they peered directly threw, it was the feeling of the byakugan it was far away much further up the river something was going on it seemed intense perhaps traning or something else. Even if he was to go and it was dangerous gig knew he coudltn do any thing so why bother besides he had somethign else on his agenda, his jutsu and traning rai.

The wind of the canyon would blow quietly and softly. THere wouldn't be more than a few sounds outside of those made by man and beast. Even those would be hushed by the winds harsh calling across the canyons long ebbed grounds. Man what a sight this place was. Least that's what Marcus always thought. Of course, he always hated coming here for one main reason.
He never got to come here and just look. There was always some purpose for his visits. That thought depressed the s**t outta him but meh, couldn't be helped really. He had already finished one bit of his personal agenda, one of which the councel of elders probably would b***h him out about, but his second mission was still in the works. From what he had gathered from personal research, the Hyuuga leader had thought her children long dead...yep, it was time to correct that thought.
He would see, off in the distance, 2 figures standing, one laying. The second figure was a boy from the look of it and eh was trying to hide. Doing a poor job of it from where Marcus was standing but then again, the boy wasn't trying to hide from Marcus. As for the other, it looked to be the Hyuuga woman. He remembred ehr from his dealings earlier. Damn she was a distance off...guess it was time to stop her or something of that matter.
He began to walk up to hre at a normal pace, it would seem like he wouldn't catch up to her at all till he tapped his foot on the ground. The normally hard ground would begin to soften and, almost instantly, turn to quicksand. A straight line of the substance would shoot directly towards the woman, avoiding her fallen friend and circle around ehr. Since it was silent, she probablyw ouldn't notice it happening beneith her feet till it was too late. A sand trap for the masses.

"Shin-shin-san! I knew it was you!" She quickly gave Shinratsu a hug as it was obvious it was Shinratsu in the distance. She quickly let go of him as she blushed a bit, how embarrassing was that? "Uh...I...Ohayo Shinratsu-kun...I can take it that you passed that test? That was the last time I saw you doing that test with Roy-kun....You...seem kinda different..." She said as she gave a light laugh as her embarrassment from the hug made it hard for her to talk. "I guess I shouldn't be interrupting your training." She looked back to notice Giglamesh writing on some scrolls, she shivered a bit knowing how scary the guy could get...yeah...those times back at the academy. Turning back to the Hyouton clans member, she wondered if his life went to the best for him...compared to shizuka taking care of her sick mother.

The pressure of the Byakugan had vanished but not the unconscious man. "Oi, Gig!" It was strange for such...vulgar language coming out of the young head of family's elegant mouth. Shin resented having to drop his normal speech patterns... But he had to get the Chuunin - wait, Jounin now (Shin sniffed rather disdainfully) - 's attention. "There's an injured man upriver!" As if to emphasize his point, the pale-haired boy pointed to Shikamori's barely visible figure. Shin had actually attempted at dragging Shikamori downhill with him but...being significantly smaller than the hunter-nin...had to give up.

Rai was off in his own world for a second before Giglamesh would yell at him. Then he would start choking for a moment, spitting out water. For some reason water was in his mouth. Could he have been drinking it? Hopefully the river was clean. As he thought he seemed to anger his sensei he would lean forward and swim over to his location. It wouldn't take him long to get over to where he was, the boy was at least decent IN the water. "I cannot walk on the water like you sensei.. I was making my way out here to you.." He would try to use the lie and play it off. Looking away to mask the lie the best he could. Trying to keep his attention on the boy and girl talking on the river bank as well he would seem as if his attention was still in two places at once.

Giglamesh would loo to shin which was speaking quite odd. He woudl also take his advice and walk over to the man wich was knocked unconcious giglamesh would pick him up by his right ankle holding him up looking at him. "..........pfft...its to late for him hes dead." Giglamesh knew he was alive but would set his casket down, causeing a loud fueneral bell to ring and launching a massive weapon extrmely high in to the air, durring the instant where t was in the air giglamesh placed the man inside the casket and pushed it so it laid down on its back with the nara inside to rest, hopefully to get up faster realizing he was in a casket. Giglamesh would then look to his add student, as well at to shin and shizuka. ".....Thats a good point as far as i know none of you know water walking right?" Giglamesh kenw none of them knew it as there wassent much need for this jutsu in this village as they were at the only source of water around the village. After a few moments the blade would fianly come back down giglamesh with incredible ease would catch it over his right shoulder by bending his elbow up leaving his hand open at shoulder the blades handle would whip around barley missing his hand and the handle came exactly aorun in to his hand which he would then whip the blade straight out basicly as if pointing it. giglamesh would then twirl it pushing its tip down somewhat in to the ground so it could stand itself. The blade looked like a a kubukiri houcho but it was very different first it was actualy bigger and the most noticeable thing was that it had a chained blade going around what would normaly be the blade. If any of them knew what a chain saw was they recgonize thats exactly what it was a giant chain saw sword, it was heavy as ******** but gig handled it as if it was weightless.

"Water walking? I've seen a bunch of other ninjas do it before...As a matter of fact, hehe...I'm not that fond of swimming, Giglamesh-sensei..." What was she saying!? This could be the start of her training as a Kunoichi! She had to do this, shaking her head she would once again adjust the goggles on her face as she gave a laugh to cover out her fear of swimming. "What am I saying, I'll be happy to learn the water walking jutsu!" The embarrassing moments just kept rushing to her. "W...what does a c-chain saw sword have to do with walking on water..." Hopefully the sword will have nothing to do with the training they're about to get.

Keiko saw the new sword and walked back over the river, however taking her time. Being around water was something that always made her happy, other than Giglamesh, Kinami, and flowers. From there she greeted Shin, Rai, and Shizuka, with a smile and a small respectful bow. Keiko looked at the man that was unconscious, and wanted to do something, but couldn't bring herself to get out of her happy, relaxed mood. She sat down next to the edge of the river and took off her shoes, and dipped her feet into the water. She sat, just listening to the conversations, however, when she looked over at Shin she was very surprised at how thin he looked. "Eh, Shin, are you eating?" She looked at him again, "Aren't you still at the refugee homes? There or not you're coming over and you're getting some food in you. You look terrible, and weak for that matter." She smiled at him and spaced out.

Cp: 2721/2738
Quicksand. Yokou noted, cursing inwardly. How could she be so careless to not study Iwa's geography more carefully? She formed a single handseal and on the river's surface, a shadow clone of herself appeared. About the same time, the clone made a handseal as well before they swapped places. It was a quick Jutsu, so she didn't allot nor have the time to transfer more chakra to the shadow clone and as soon as the exchange was performed, it vanished.
No. Something was wrong about that quicksand... Yokou's eyes narrowed, Byakugan surfacing. Just as she suspected, the land she had stood on was flooded with chakra. She made a movement, the river water around her frothing as she clenched her right fist to direct it in an attack.
But stopped when she noticed who it was... "Why would Lord Tsuchikage personally come here?" Came the quiet question, more to herself rather than to Marcus.
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Shadow Doppelganger Technique) Unlike the normal Bunshin no Jutsu (Art of the Doppelganger), this jutsu does not create illusions, but real bodies of the user. The user's chakra is evenly distributed among every clone. This could be very dangerous if the user is low on chakra or makes too many clones (like with Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Multiple Shadow Clone Technique). Kage Bunshin can't be detected by Byakugan. This is because the clones are real bodies with real chakra circulatory systems, identical to the user. The real one also cannot be detected by the Sharingan. Because the clones are basically real, they can perform Jutsu and real damage on their target, and can take some hits themselves, being even able to bleed, although they'll still disappear when enough damage has been done, which is usually after one blow or fatal attack. Since the clones are exact replicas of the user, one can use them in combination with many other techniques. Rank: B Cp cost: 10 per bunshin and resulting CP divided by number of Clones created Damage: Each bunshin deals the same damage as you. Requirements: Chakra 50+, Must be from Konoha or taught by a Leaf Ninja Training days: 20 days
Kawarimi no Jutsu (Replacement Technique) This is a technique that usually confuses the attacker. The user quickly projects themselves with another nearby object such as a plant (normally a section of a log), an animal, or even another person within reach, leaving the opponent open to a counter-attack. Rank: E Cp cost: 1 Damage: N/A Requirements: Must have something to replace with. Training days: Academy time. Special: Add chakra mod to dodge bonus. You cannot use this while in a defensive position.

"No, I haven't done water - ...!!" Shin's jaw dropped as Giglamesh...rather casually stuffed Shikamori into the casket (expression: o_____o). Normally, he would've noticed the sword first but right now... "A casket?!" Spluttered the pale-haired boy. "Don't lie to me, I checked for a pulse!" And then he added incredulously. "Wouldn't he suffocate...?" But at Keiko's inquiry on how he was doing at the refugee house, an...almost pained look flickered across his face. The boy grumbled something about gruel and living a highly reflective counterpart to Oliver Twist. But then a flush flickered across pale features. "E-eh...I-I...wouldn't want to i-impose on Keiko-sensei..." When had Shin gotten so polite? Just barely a month ago, he pushed himself away from any social contact with any of the Iwa-born. But now...guess he really was settling in.

"Giglamesh-sensei! You can't just stuff some one in a casket without knowing they're okay!"" Running over to the casket, she wondered if Giglamesh hated the person who was inside the casket. "You're still mad with power giglamesh-sensei!" She said in a cute type of scream. She tried to open the casket until she heard what Shinratsu was talking like. "Shin-shin-kun...is that really you? You seem...so different that it's odd. Like you're a whole different person."

Shinratsu nodded in agreement. “Especially if it’s a foreign guest shinobi to boot. What will Tsuchikage-sama say?” Almost as if to compliment his statement, Shinratsu’s eyes widened as he noticed Marcus stride past the group. “...” Speak of the devil. Shin simply looked at Shizuka kind of funny. Different? Odd? Really? He remembered the honorifics, right...? Just less formal ones... “Eh...” To prove that he wasn’t an imposter, Shinratsu drew closer to the river side and dipped his hands in the water. For a moment nothing happened, but then if Shizuka looked closer, the water was held suspended over his cupped palms. Trails of ice particles encircled the water flower, a lot like the dust circles around Saturn and Uranus.
It was only a simple trick with his Hyouton limit, for visual pleasure. Without a purpose...only merely toying around. Yet, it required control to suspend the water... Shinratsu got an idea of how to approach this lesson.
Water Walking DC: 25
