Yamatano wrote down on the parchment, a smile tugging at the ends of his mask. Yamatano had not anticipated what a chore the structuring of seals could be for ninjutsu. Up until this moment, he had simply been shown the handseals once, and performed the jutsu by copying them and molding his chakra. Of course, Yamatano could now use some jutsu without seals, but for a jutsu that did not exist, he had had to match the flow of his chakra precisely with the way the seals manipulated the flow of energy, trying to get them to do what he wanted.
Yamatano had been working on a new ninjutsu, using the water mirror as a principle starting point. The jutsu created the flat panes of water that he needed, but the purpose Yamatano had in mind was completely different. Rather than create a thin mirror, Yamatano had altered the panes of water to become three dimensional, adding about three inches of depth to each pane. Then, when he performed the jutsu, five of these panes would rise out of the water in the pool in front of him, each one a foot higher than the last. In theory, Yamatano would be able to climb up these panes like stairs.
Of course, that was the theory. In truth, after a day of research, all he had found was the correct seals to make the panes the shape he wanted them to be in. Now, and only now, could he attempt to field test the jutsu.
Yamatano crouched at the water's edge, a small, deep pool hidden in the recesses of the cave, the only light coming from his candle. Performing the needed handseals, Yamatano let his chakra ebb out into the water, rising up in five flat panes, each a foot higher than the last. Hardly able to believe his success, Yamatano let chakra flow into the soles of his feet, took a step onto the first pane, and immediately fell forward, through the watery panes into the pool. Yamatano’s brow creased in frustration as he surfaced, his normally gravity-defying hair matted to the sides of his head.
Yamatano was frustrated, but he understood the problem: he had let his chakra spread as if he were climbing up a solid object, which this was clearly not. Focusing all his chakra into the soles of his feet pushed down too much on one spot, and since the panes of water were floating in the air, his chakra had no bottom to catch hold on. Instead, Yamatano let his chakra flow through the sides of his feet, to try and stand on the water itself.
Performing his needed handseals, Yamatano once again raised the panes of water, stepping much more gingerly this time. By allowing his chakra to ebb out the sides of his feet, Yamatano tried to use the water’s entire surface area as his stepping plate. On a regular body of water this would be impossible, but since it was such a small surface area, Yamatano could encompass the entire pane while still expending a reasonable amount of chakra. He took the first step onto the pane, then another, and, much to his disbelief, found he was standing on the water floating in midair. At least, for a grand total of three seconds, before he fell through the pane. Apparently, he couldn’t remain standing on a midair piece of water indefinitely, but perhaps it would be just enough for what he needed…
Once more, Yamatano made the required handseals, summoning the panes of water from the pool. Rather than step gingerly as he had before, Yamatano took a step back, and rushed forward. His foot caught the first step, bouncing off of it to the second step, the third, the fourth, and at the fifth, Yamatano extended his arm forward, wristblade extended. Yamatano leapt off the step, poised downward as if he were attempting to crash into a person. His regular water walking kept him afloat when he landed, but he was unable to resist plunging his blade into the water, as if he had been slipping the blade into a man’s skull.
Yamatano returned to his scroll, writing down the details of the jutsu, titling it “Yamatano’s Assisted Assassination: Mizu Kaidan, Water Stairs.”

Being the element his clan was known for, Yamatano decided it was high time he got serious about learning all it's secrets.
"Seiteki Suji...sounds easy enough." Yamatano said to himself as he copied the handseals on the paper. Chakra coalesced in his fingers, the small static shocks tingling his hand. Whipping his hand forward in an arc, Yamatano proclaimed "Seiteki Suji no Jutsu!" Long, thin strands of what appeared to be string flew forth from Yamatano's hands, attaching themselves to the rock underneath him. Yamatano shook his hand, canceling the jutsu and dissapating the strings, already thinking of the many ways to ambush an unwary target using this.

Truth be told, Yamatano did not possess many offensive ninjutsu, and having something as basic, yet powerful, as a bolt of lighting would surely increase the capabilities of his arsenal.
Performing the needed handseals, Yamatano felt the chakra build in the base of his shoulder. The sensation from the static strings didn't even compare to what he was feeling right now. Yamatano could feel the power begging to be released for his hold, so he decided to comply. Yamatano extended his arm forward, accidentally revealing his hidden blade in the process, and yelled "Raikou Boruto!"
The bolt arced out of Yamatano's palm, blasting into the ceiling of the cave, way off target. A shower of sparks appeared as the bolt ended, the short blast doing a number on Yamatano's eyesight. Closing his right eye, Yamatano instead lifted his headband up to reveal his left eye, which was still fine, albiet a bit unused to being visible. Power was what he had excelled in, but he had given no thought to precision.
Without even bothering with handseals, Yamatano instead focused the chakra into one single chakra point (or what he thought was a chakra point, as he was unfamiliar with the chakra network.) in his shoulder, and letting the energy flow through what he believed to be a single chakra tube. The energy moved much slower, refining itself as is passed through his arm, until it reached his hand, where yamatano said "Raikou Boruto".
He hadn't even moved his hand forward, and the lightning shot forth. At the back of the cave, a bright shower of sparks flashed for a moment, before once again leaving as quickly as it had come.
(Raikou Boruto learned)
At this point, a small snake slithered its way over to Yamatano, holding a scroll in between it's fangs. confused, Yamatano plucked the scroll form it's mouth, watching the creature dash away. Upon unrolling it, Yamatano read.
"Yamatano,
Though I may not know where you have gone, the Hawks of Kirigakure are as sharp as the shinobi, and will undoubtedly find you. I must cut your training time short, for there is an assignment I have for you. I expect you at my desk the day after you get this message.
Mizukage Luo Ushio"
Yamatano was a bit annoyed that he could not train himself more, but he knew that all work Lord Mizukage assigned was important work. He was still unsure of why a snake had given him the letter, when it clearly stated it was being delivered by a ha-BUUUUUURP!!!Yamatano felt his brain flatline for a second as he processed what he just heard. It sounded like a Kyodaija......A Kyodaija who had just recently finished a tasty snack........Yamatano shuddered as he thought of having to explain where one of the Kirigakure message hawks had gone, and began to pack.

After a brief exchange in words, the boy left the cavern, with a promise to return soon.
Some time after Yamatano left, Manda curled up, and said "Kuro, bring me the newspaper, won't you?" The cavern sat in silence for a minute, before manda called out "Kuro?" The enormous lord of serpents looked around the cavern, until realization dawned on him. "F**k." he whispered, all to aware of where Kuro had gone.
