Welcome to Gaia! ::

Isoga stands on top of the boats sail mast, and watches as they approach the Hidden Mist. He lets loose a sigh of relief, but he knows they may still be followed by the strange Shinobi. At least they got away from those crazy Rain Shinobi as well. As they dock, Isoga jumps from the top of the sail mast and lands on the ground below. He did not bring anything with him, so no need to grab his none existent stuff. He starts to walk back home, and watches as his younger brother runs off to his house. Isoga heads to the food market and buys some groceries. He then walks off to Ferrakus house. He opens his door and places the food down and gives him half of what he bought. "I still do not understand why you stay here, instead of the clans house. Its much safer and much more luxurious there. Guess you like roughin it eh?" Isoga chuckles to himself and sits down next to the fire. He takes out some bread from his bag of food, and begins to eat it.

Isoga takes the bowl and thanks his younger brother. He starts to eat it at a normal pace, even though he too is very hungry. He then watches as his brother gets up and jumps off to the library. Isoga looks at the fire and douses it. He then follows his brother, while he eats his rice. He waits outside the library for his brother to get his books. He is not allowed in there any more, since he fought someone in there and destroyed some of the book shelves. He did repair them but hes banned from going in. He finishes the bowl of rice, and puts it away in his bag. He then watches his brother leave the library, his nose in one of the books. Isoga trots behind him, hands in his pocket as he looks around. He then notices another criminal wandering around looking to steal something. Isoga taps his brothers shoulder. "Be right back. Criminal stuff to take care of." Isoga then hops from where he was, to behind the thief. He follows the man until he pick pockets some little kid. Isoga is infuriated, and releases his chakra. The man turns around, and is punched in the face by Isoga. The man gets knocked back and Isoga then jumps over the man, and kicks him in the gut. The man hits the ground hard and yelps in pain. He then starts to stand up, but Isoga trips him. As the man falls down, Isoga elbows the mans face. The man goes out cold and Isoga gives the kid his money back. "Thanks Mister Ninja!" The kid runs off happily. Isoga smiles to himself for his accomplishment. and begins to walk off in the direction Ferraku went.

Isoga keeps wandering towards the direction his brother was going. After about two miles, Isoga stops and looks around. He realizes hes far from the village, and still can not feel his brothers chakra. Isoga sighs and heads off a little more. He arrives at the open field he always uses for his training. He walks into the middle of it and does hand signs. Water Clones rise up from around him. He then does one hand sign and vanishes in the mist. The clones all get back to back, looking for Isoga. To bad Isoga did not even bother to move. He is right behind all of them. He does hand signs, and stomps his feet. Ice Needles silently rise up behind all of the clones. They rain down on the Clones. Four of the six Water Clones die instantly. The others all get around. Isoga then does hand signs. "Water Style, Water Gut Bullet no Jutsu!" He fires three bullets out. One hits one exactly on point. The other Clone, dodges one, but gets hit by the next one. Isoga grins and cracks his neck. He then does hand signs for a new jutsu he read about a little bit ago. "Water Style, Hells Rain!" Rain starts to downpour from everywhere with a slight glow to the rain. Isoga can not tell if it worked, but he belives he did.

Ferraku looks into his book to see the new jutsus he will be able to learn after acquiring his previous ability of creating ice crystals within the air. His pupils widen as he seems a new clone technique, clones complimented his style very well since he lacked defensive jutsus, he needed something to take the hits for him. Ferraku looks at the hand signs and sees the technique is essentially a combination of air manipulation the move he just learned and one of his original jutsus the water clone. Ferraku thinks he can master this technique quite quickly, he decides if he is ever going to learn to create his own jutsus he will need to learn to do things without a book always by his side. Ferraku decides he will figure out the hand signs for the technique on his own, without using the book. He will get them from the knowledge of hand seals he has gained in his extensive reading. The hand seals are separated into for rows, the hand signs for air manipulation are, Bird Dog Horse Serpent and the seals for water clone are Dragon Serpent Rat Boar. Ferraku looks at the first two hand signs Bird and Dragon. Bird and Dragon are both dominant hand seals so you keep them both starting with the one on the left. The first section of the hand seals would be Bird, Dragon. He then looks to the next to signs which are Serpent and Dog. Serpent is a independent type seal and dog is dominant, so they are both kept which gives him Dog Serpent, always start with the most dominant seal, so the seals so far are Bird, Dragon, Dog, Serpent. The next to are rat and horse. Rat is independent and horse is recessive, therefore you keep them both, although horse is not essential, so Rat, Horse is next. So the seals are so far Bird, Dragon, Dog, Serpent, Rat, Horse. The final two seals are Boar and Serpent. Boar is dominant and Serpent is independant, so the seals go Boar, Serpent. So the final seal formation is Bird, Dragon, Dog, Serpent, Rat, Horse, Boar, Serpent. Ferraku opened his book to check and see if his results were right, he was glad to see he was spot on. Although he was still miles away from actually being able to form real seal combination. He built up mass chakra forming the picture of him in his head with ice flowing around it. He then did each hand sign molding the correct type of chakra with every step of the technique. You never mold the chakra of the recessive side, you add them up independant are nothing recessive are minus one dominant are plus one. So dragon serpent rat boar is a plus two seal form, and the water clone seals are only plus one so one would use two thirds ice chakra and one third water chakra, but ice chakra is already half water chakra, so one would use one third wind chakra and two thirds water chakra. Ferraku carefully focused his chakra in a balance very close to that, he then did the hand signs while releasing lots of chakra. "Aisu Bushin No Jutsu." Ferraku says and an ice like sculpture rises from the water and slowly morphs into an exact duplicate of Ferraku. Ferraku draws his sword and the clone does as well. Ferraku dashes at the clone strafing back and forth as he moves. He lunges to the left stabbing at the clone, the clone knocks his sword away and spins slashing at Ferraku's back. Ferraku flips over the clone's sword and jumps back taking stance. Ferraku takes three needles from his leather pouch and chucks them at the clone. The clone makes no effort to dodge or block and they bounce off the solid ice the clone is made of. Ferraku is annoyed and impressed at the same time. He takes off dashing at the clone and leaps forward side slashing with immense force. The clone uses a fort block by placing his sword straight up and down to collide with Ferraku's sword. Ferraku swings hard and drives the clone back with his slash, before the clone can regain stance Ferraku dashes forward and jams his sword right into the ice clone's heart. A large chunk of ice chips off the clone and he knocks Ferraku's sword away bare handed and stabbed back. Ferraku is in shock, but jumps back just in time to avoid the ice clone's attack. Ferraku smirks at the power of this new clone he has conjured. Ferraku uses Anatsu Odori and appears behind the clone doing hand signs. "Fuuton Kaze Ken!" Ferraku yells releasing the powerful wind jutsu at point blank range. Huge wind blades cut into the clone knocking little bits of ice off each time. The clone looks a little mutilated, but is still standing strong. The clone changes the tides and rushes Ferraku heaving his blade down at Ferraku. Ferraku blocks with an advanced straight block to encounter his blade. The clone slides across the lake and tackles Ferraku to the ground. When there the ice clone flips onto his feet and swings down. Ferraku rolls across the surface of the water and jumps onto his feet and stabs the clone in the neck just as his slash misses, immediately after which Ferraku cuts his head in half with a diagonal half. A big hunk of ice slides off where the clone's face was. The clone then cracks and shatters in a light rain of ice crystals that fall into the pond. Ferraku smirks being very pleased with the power of his new jutsu and being more happy about how easy it was to master due to understanding the hand seals behind it. Ferraku grabs his book and looks down the page to see what jutsu he will learn next. Having ice techniques in general fascinated him, Ferraku is very pleased he has learned a combo element like that of the ice. (1008/1000 Aisu Bushin No Jutsu Learned) 23,822+1008=24,830

Ferraku analyzes his hand seals to make sure they are correct for producing Aisu Senbon. Ferraku then gets his clan technique book, and checks the ice needle technique his brother knows to the seals he has extracted from this technique. Ferraku checks the hand seals and they are very similar, unfortunately he does not know enough about the other other technique or hand seals to figure out any abnormalities. Ferraku uses Anatsu Odori and appears taking stance in the middle of the lake. He begins to build up extensive ice chakra on his arms. Ferraku closes hie eyes arching his feet back and pointing his arms forward. He does his hand seals and opens his eyes. Chakra rages off his arms as he sprays ice needles outward, but still it is ineffective, because the needles shatter after the make contact with any thing. They have no ability to pierce the enemy... yet. Ferraku begins to concentrate while doing an odd series of hand signs. He is using density and water seals for the most part. Boar Serpent Ox Serpent Boar, Ferraku does those seals trying to tone his chakra to a certain way. After he has built an unreasonably large amount of chakra for a technique of this level he does his hand signs while taking a deep breath in. He then breaths out and points his arms outward, releasing even more chakra, the needles spray out like a machine gun. They hit the trees nearly instantly and turn them into "woodland acupuncture patients." As Ferraku put in it when he is laughing at the jutsu. He grins with satisfaction and figures now it is time to combine them both and perfect this jutsu. Ferraku closes his eyes building up vast amounts of wind chakra on his feet and huge amounts of ice chakra in his arms. He takes stance standing in the middle of the pond while in a deep state of concentration. Ferraku does all the hand seals required for the jutsu and points his hand outward. "Yuraisu Danmaku!" Ferraku yells, he begins to flash around using a combination of body flicker, he then sprays the ice needles out at high speeds, while doing this he realizes he cannot very accurate at these speeds. Ferraku understands it could take years to fully master this jutsu, but to make it pretty efficient would not take him long, he just needed to get use to moving at those speeds while attacking with the needles. "Aisu Bushin No Jutsu." Ferraku says summoning an ice clone, he directs the ice clone to attempt to dodge the incoming needles that will be flying at him. Ferraku takes stance building up wind chakra in his feet, and ice chakra in his arms. He then does the hand seals while taking stance. Ferraku closes his eyes picturing the clone in his head. He then begins to flash around, and he opens his eyes instantly, he puts his arms out and sprays barrage of ice needles at his clone. The clone dashes around dodging most of them with quite ease, due to the inaccuracy of them. Ferraku focuses his eyes in the clone and begins to track the clones movements even while he is moving around so quickly. It sounds like a constant tapping on glass as ice needles spray into the clones, surely this many hits would turn any person into a mutilated corpse. Ferraku smiled as the clone was completely unable to keep up in dodging the jutsu. Ferraku stopped moving and grinned, he then pulls out his clan book and begins to read up on the ice needle technique figuring the technique will be much easier to learn now that he is already figured how to produce the ice needles, the next jutsu was just on a much larger scale then he used for this jutsu. One Thousand Ice Needles Of Death, that was the name of the technique, just hearing that in battle must be intimidating Ferraku thought to himself laughing. He then set his book down wand walked on the lake prepared to begin training. (198+402=600/600 Yuraisu Danmaku 282/850 Senatsu Suishou) 25,328+684=26,012

"Well I'm here. Not in a very good mood, and not fond of this village. But I don't want it either, so it doesn't matter what I do here..." Crius says, talking to himself, as he looks around slowly through the goldenrod sunglasses that he wore. His gaze locking onto a blue haired male standing before the Mist gates. Shaking his head, Crius twirls a single hand, a flurry of chakra strings cascading downwards and ripping through the ground in a steady pace directly before the male. Tearing into the gate, and ripping everything to shreads in a matter of seconds. Crius frowns a little, as he drops behind the strings and then shifts a few and sends them shooting from the mass that he was recoiling, to strike out and attempt to slip directly through the blue haired male's shoulders and thighs, the fleshy areas, where it would wound but not cause damage. Crius grins,as he twirls his body just a little, sending the strings into the effects of the Dance of the Wires as the remainder slash outwards, in order to attempt to encircle and capture his new opponent in a wave of chakra strings and ensnare them within them in an instant.

Ahahahahaha! Denied!" Crius yells, his wires slashing through the wind with ease, and moving forwards to coil around the prey like a serpent, pulling tightly in order to not only crush bones, but also cut skin. "Use your head, kid. You should have known you wouldn't stand a chance. You're too weak. Too inexperienced, it's shameful for you to even refer to yourself as anything close to a shinobi. Never mind you being simply a human, and have no real backbone to back up any attack you make. You're useless, so you dye as everyone else who is useless will. By being torn to shreds!" Crius exclaims, being much unlike himself, he then twists his hands, pulling on the purely chakra made strings in order to have them cut into, and perhaps truly cut this blue haired shinobi to shreads in one attack. They should have thought up a better defense, then a little wind. The incomplete attack barely even made a dent into a cutting assault like that of a few dozen chakra strings slicing through the air.
