Welcome to Gaia! ::

As Ark climbed the wall, first he used the simple strength he had. Beofre he realized it, he was already lossing some strength. He thought it would be a good idea now to try to focus his chakra on the wall, so he could simply walk up. He did the Ram hand seal, and focused.

Ark just about fell down the wall, if he idnt grab the rope in time. ''Well, this sucks.'' he said to himself but he was detirmened to get to the top. He sighed again, and tried to climb.

Reck walked out to the badlands listening to his headphones and dancing to the beat. He reached an area where there were some large rocks and stopped near them. He took off his headphones and looked around to see if anyone else was around but it didn't seam like anyone was. "Well, sweetness!! Guess I can let lose now." Reck placed his headphones back on and walked over to a rock as he turned on his battle track.

"Her we go..." Reck began to punch at the rock at a slow pase keepin to the beat of the song and gradually increased his speed with every passing second. He then rapidly bentdown and kicked the base of the rock making it quake leaving a dent in its side and jumped to the top of it and thrusted his foot at it's tip knocking it off as he landed on the ground. "Hmm, ok...but not good enough." Reck dropped to the ground landing on is hands and started to do push-ups quickly. In a couple of minutes he managed to do 103 ups and wqas still going strong like he had just started so he continued to do ups for about 25 more minutes until he couldnt do anymore at the rapid pase he had started with. "Huff...huff....1,295 should be enough for now...huff..."

Reck than got to his feet and walked over to a small boulder and changed the song on his headphones.

He struggled to pick it up and placed it on his back then began squat holding the boulder on his back. This excerise was completely exhausting but he pushed himself and continued to squat with the boulder on his back as he sweat heavily pushing past his limits. Some time later he finally stopped and dropped the boulder to the ground and fell to his hands and knees breathing heavily trying to catch his breath. "Oh...man....huff....I know what I need..." He grinned and got to his feet once again and started to bounce around to loosen himself up and got into a running position. He changed his track one last time and started to run strait forward into the badlands.

He continued to run on and on until he reached a cluster of large stones blocking the way. He zigzaged through half of them, jumped over another one and he kicked the last one breaking it in half and he continued to run at full power. Next he reached a large fissure in the earth that streched for atleast a mile but he didnt stop, he just ran faster and jumped into the air almost clearing the gap but one foot slipped and he balanced on the edge of the cliff trying not to fall over. He tried to balance himself but ended up falling over the cliff head first and fell rapidly to the bottom of the fissure. "Woa!! No, I can't lose now!!" He managed to grab a rock on the wall of the fissure and get his bearings. "No...I have no limits...I have to keep it going!!!!" Saying that to pump himself up, he then wildly climbeed the wall like a beast knocking hols in the earth to get a grip and soon he reached the top of the cliff and began to run again not even slowing down to catch his breath. After that he continued to run for several minutes completely exhausting himself and he reached his final test on his race. He reached a swiling pool of quicksand and continued to run and jumped into it as he slid into the earth slowly and tried to climb out of it. "....Ga...this is no good. I need..." Reck started to punch into the ground relentlessly making the quicksand spilt around him and he used the rest of his strength to jump out of the quicksand and ont an area of solid land. He then fell on his back, lied on the ground, and smiled at his accomplishment as he took a quick nap.

A couple hours later, Reck woke up and scratched his head with a tired and dazed look on his face. "Huh? Did I fall asleep? I have no time for this." He jumped up to his feet and started to walk back but turned around and looked at the pool of quicksand. "Hmm...that might be a problem later. Guess I should do something." He jumped around a bit to loosen up then jumped high into the air doing a flip and thrusted his foot out as he came down in the center of the pool. "Painful Sky Drop!!!" He crashed into the sand and knocked it up in all directions leaving a crater in the ground of nothing but dry land. He then jumped back out of the crater and landed on the edge of it smiling confidently. He then walked back to the area of stones where he started and looked at the rock he hit before as he got into a fighting stance. "Time to see what I got...YAH!!" Reck pulled back and spun around kicking the rock right out of the ground into mid air. "Not yet!!" He then placed on hand on the ground as he continued to spin and crushed his fist into the rock breaking it into multiple smaller pieces. Reck placed his hand on his shoulder and flexed his right arm as he began to walk back towards the village."Yah, I gotten alot stronger. I can feel it."

Ark walked into the badlands, eager for just about anything. ''Finally, IM A JOUNIN!'' he yelled as he heard a minor echo. ''Now....I can finally practice......that jutsu.'' He took out one of his kunai and made some seals while holding it. ''First Kuamari Jutsu! Kasei No Jutsu!!!''

The Kunai grew to about a foot and a half. ''Alright'' he said as he dashed towards a tree. He started furiously cutting the tree in multiple places. He then gave one last blow and jumped backwards. ''Alright, HERE IT COMES!!!!!! Second Kuamari Jutsu!!!!! KUJOKEI NO JUTSU!'' Ark did countless hand seals and controlled as much chakra as he could.

Hiro walked into the badlands knowing not much but knew enough not to go to far out. He thought well time for some chakra control. He calmed himself and pushed his chakra to certain points in his body and moved them around. He kept his chakra at steady flow and soon he had filled his entire body up with chakra...then he let it all go with a burs and began running. He ran and ran and kept running until he decided to stop and see if he could quickly realign his chakra for another burst in the other direction. So as he built it up he slid to a stop and burst the other way. Because of the large amount of speed he had built up from the chkra burst he kicked up a mouatin of sand that was now hurting towards him. "This is not good." Hiro said looking behind him. "How do I get away from a sand wave?" Hiro tried to think quickly but nothing was coming to him...so he countinued to run as fast as he possibly could...in the distance he could see what looked like a sand wall. "Perfect...at this speed I should be able to run up the wall and escape my little problem behind me."

Hiro quickly began zig-zaging his way through the dead mess that was the badlands, until he reached the wall of sand. He ripped two kunai from his back vest pocket and threw them into the wall angling them at two different heights. As he reached the giant sand wall, Hiro began to run up it. When he reached the first kunai he launched himself off it into the second one, then repaeated the process and reached the top of the wall. As he saw this wall was not going to be standing much longer he tried to summon up a Clone jutsu, but knowing his luck was unsuccseful. So he jumped off the wall and slid down the other side. as the sand wall crumbled he found himself at a safe distance and could not belive his luck. "That is the last time I forget the handseals for a cline jutsu...they would have come in handy with all that running, mybe I should have used a substition jutsu. I need to study more. I am not retaining my information like I should."

Hiro walked back up to the tree and shooke off his body and popped his neck. This might take awhile...luckly the academy wasnt teaching today. He could stay out all day. Well they were teaching he wasnt going rather. Hiro leveled out his chakra this time making sure not to put t much he would rather not like to repeat the last incident that lingered over him. He breathed in deeply and concentrated on his chakra network as he pushed once again the souls of his boots.

(First for chakra second for tumble)

This time Hiro ran up the tree but it began to slid down. He quickly jumped off to flip backwatds, but fell on his head. He looked like an ostricth with his head stuck in the sand. It was quite but not very comfotable. Hiro quickly jerked his head of the sand and stood up. "Ummm ok...I think its time for some jutsu practice."

Hiro thought of who to turn in to and all he could think about was ark and reck. They were both strong ninja and he wanted to be just like them. he said to himself, "Lets do this right." He was much out of practice in his jutsu. "I guess what you get for flirting with the girls in the village. When you should have learned that TaiJutsu Reck does." Hiro breathed once more and had heard his clones copy his movments to the letter. He yelled "Henge no Jutsu" and once again his eyes snapped open, the red dots growing bigger with every jutsu used.

Hiro smiled once again as two clones turned into Ark...two into Reck and he turned into Keiko. "Yes I am back in the game. I am Hiro Kiator and I am going to be Kage one day!" Hiro smiled then released all the jutsus. That was enjoyable. I think its time to head to the mouatin

Hiro entered the badlands. Today he felt he need to go for a good run. It had been awhile since he had pushed himself past his limit, like three days. He set off at a steady pace and countinued. What was odd about this run was he had to stay in a straight line. No matter what. In the distance he saw a batch of trees. He quickly picked up his speed and spun kick through them and countinued to run. He smiled he had gotten much stronger and faster, but his next obstcale was not going to be as easy. It was a rock formation. This time he jumped on his hands and crane flipped over it. Hiro was still going strong. "All that training with Reck and Ark and Makio had really paied off. I must thank them later."
