Isamu opened the academy door with bright eyes, excited about his new tasks as a genin even if he was unable to show it. His disposition of complete indifference (borderline apathy) was something he could never shake, but he really was genuinely happy to meet fellow graduates. Even in the academy, he'd almost exclusively talked to, studied with, and trained with his Akimichi friend Shota.
He entered the academy remembering how much bloodline training he'd done just this morning, after graduation but before headband retrieval. "Hello," he announced to the... eleven shinobi he found in the academy. Wait - were those two each a set of triplets and the other- oh no, clone technique. Right. "I'm Isamu Yamanaka and my friend following behind me is Shota Akimichi. We've been sent by the new Lady Hokage, the Uzumaki - San or Sanae, I think - to come here for extra lessons. Sorry for not knowing more, I was out of the village for nearly a year because of my sick grandmother, so my distant studies didn't cover the events that took place in that time period. I also apologize for our lateness; we also graduated this morning, though our headband retrieval was scheduled for the late afternoon. What would you like us to do first, Chie?" At the last question, he looked between each of the women before him, completely unsure which one was Chie, as looks could be very, very deceiving, and he didn't want to be on the bad side of his instructor for making an assumption.
( Because you can learn clan jutsu w/o a headband, I'm placing these events "in the past" )
Isamu closed his eyes. He breathed in steadily until he found a good, natural rhythm. He put his hands together, expending his chakra. He felt his mind reach outwards. It 'touched' Shota's mind, and connected the two of them through a bridge of chakra, allowing Isamu to direct his thoughts directly to his friend's head. [ E | Yamanaka Clan Telepathy ]
Isamu grabbed one of his kunai. It simply stroked the flat part of the blade near the tip of it. The metal was almost freezing cold, it felt like it would never be at room temperature. He kept his left hand on the kunai as he reached his right one out to Shota. Through his chakra, he sent out the sensation to his friend, letting Shota feel like he was touching a cold kunai without ever doing so his self. [ D | Kanchi Denden [ Sensing Transmission ] ]
Isamu gestured to an academy assistant. One of the supervisors meant to point shinobi in the direction of the proper scrolls and weapons, as well provide aid in what techniques they could. Isamu needed to make quite the case to get the second test subject that he desperately needed. "Ey, I need a favor from you. Just stand here, and let me do a few hand seals. It won't hurt you. Promise." He waited for some sort of affirmation before he backed up.
He had Shota and the assistant face each other, a couple paces apart. Isamu was equidistant between them, though he was rather far away from them altogether, forming an isoceles triangle. He formed a few hand seals, including the signature Yamanaka sign. He locked them both in his sights as he channeled his chakra.
He extended two equal 'mental' ropes in a sense to grab both of them. He tied the two ropes to each other, so that the consciousness of Shota would be tied directly to the consciousness of the assistant. With an activation of his chakra, he sent the two consciousnesses barreling into each other, transferring between themselves instead of with his own. [ B | Shingyakushin no Jutsu [ Mind Reverse Body Technique ] ]
Isamu released the technique with a handseal once the duo looked around in their different bodies with amazement, proving it had been a success. He waited for the pair of test subjects to re-orient themselves in their own bodies again. "Okay, I just need one more thing -" The assistant cut him off, yelling at him for being crazy and not giving proper warning.
Isamu was blank-faced for a moment. He hadn't hurt the assistant, though, so he certainly hadn't lied. It would've been boring to sit through an explanation of every technique that he needed to practice - and how scary could switching bodies even be? Before he could reasonably explain himself, the assistant turned tail to escape. Instinctively, Isamu jerked forward and brought a hand to touch the assistant on his shoulder, expending chakra with the action.
As per the new technique, the assistant was frozen. His consciousness was safe and sound in his own body, but his nervous system would be unresponsive to him. With a flex of chakra, the assistant was brought to attention, chin parallel to the ground and eyes forward. Isamu walked around the assistant to judge his immobility as per Isamu's control. Satisfied, he released the technique and clapped the assistant on the shoulder in a friendly way. "Thanks for all the help, man." The assistant only shivered and fled. [ B | Shinranshin no Jutsu [ Mind Body Disturbance Technique ] ]
No matter; Shota would be ideal for the rest of his techniques. Isamu was close enough to his friend that he felt just a few strands of hair would work for this next skill. He slid his kunai back in his pocket and slid his left hand through his hair. He gripped at his strands tightly, then pulled softly until he got enough strands between his fingers to use. He dropped them in between Shota and his self in order to establish a connection through the hair and chakra. [ D | Chakra Hair Trap Technique ]
Once the hair technique was tripped, the next technique was ready. It was time for the family jewel - for the mind body switch technique. He didn't need his unique hand signs this time either. The mind body switch, through their newly formed connection, would cast almost instantaneously. It felt odd to have his consciousness travel.
Suddenly, his consciousness was attached to a new body. He opened his eyes to find himself an inch shorter; somehow, it made a world of difference to his view of the room around him. He was inside of Shota's body. He was controlling the Akimichi's body instead of his own. A glance to his original body revealed that Shota was still adjusting himself. Using Shota's hands, Isamu ended the technique with a sign. [ C | Shintenshin no Jutsu [ Mind Body Switch Technique ] ]
Isamu closed his eyes once he was back in his body. It took a few moments to re-orient himself. He felt his head and patted himself down to ensure that his senses weren't somehow lost to him from a complication in the transfer. Then he opened his eyes and met Shota's gaze, his own eyes moving rapidly as he discreetly signed a mind reading technique. [ D | Eye Mind Reading ]
Isamu shut his eyes tight to end the technique. He'd gotten a ride on the current train of thought for Shota, which was really more of a sensation of nausea from the transfer. Isamu put his right palm to Shota's forehead. With an inhale, he expended his chakra in a controlled manner to delve deeper into the Akimichi's mind.
This mind reading technique brought forth more memories than thoughts. Most were older, some even dating back to when the two of them had met as children. The memories were speckled with more generic stuff like Shota studying in the academy with Isamu, Isamu treating the both of them to some odd vegan dish that Shota had mentioned previously, Shota telling Isamu what kind of swords he'd seen upperclassmen with... Ah, a lot of his memories were of Isamu. Without a doubt, the opposite statement was true as well. [ C | Mind Reading ]
Yamanakas didn't often deal with physicality in their jutsus, having more of a focus on the internal aspect of chakra's possibilities. However, there was a sensory dome that was rather versatile in potential uses that Isamu wanted to try. Jutsu that took a form tended to be difficult for Yamanakas, and even this clan technique would be a bit of a big challenge. Isamu made the proper hand seals and utilized the water in the basin in the middle of the room.
Two spheres formed. One of the water, in the center. Another around the room with the appearance of a dome, though if one dug underground then they would find that the sphere spread that far too. He used the water ball in the center to sense Shota, who was in the larger dome. If this technique was expanded over the village, it would be easy to detect every single person.

~D-Rank~~Tai~~Buki~
Chak:: 200/200 Stam:: 325/325 Ryo: 0 AC:0
“Shota Akimichi”
The young man said to everyone in attendance. Shota never raised his head due to sheer anxiety. Socializing and any form of information reaction, all seemed to come so naturally to Shota whenever it was just he and Isamu. Being constantly stuck with each other probably played a huge role in all of this. When it came the the shinobi world, Shota had minimal interest outside of pleasing his father and their ancient partnership with the Yamanaka and Nara clans. Following closely beside Isamu, Shota would anxiously await the time when they weren’t in the spotlight.
Quite literally storming through the academy the young woman haul assed through each room looking for the fellows of her class. While she was always one for having fun and hanging out with her classmates, she was in this case, more interested in finally training in full as a full shinobi. Once she finally found the room where they were she hooped into the room panting with her hands on her knees,"I'M HERE!" After a moment of panting she rose upright and fixed her hair,"Hey Isamu-kun, Shota-kun."
Such a statement of blatant anti-authoritarianism and rebelliousness really appealed to Nise as her eyes shown with even respect. Not only did Chie know the Hokage and worked on a mission with San, but she called her nothing more than a desk clerk! It hadn't occurred to Nise that Chie genuinely didn't know about the new Hokage. "Wow... you're alright Teach." She said, full of respect and awe. It was a pretty big compliment coming from her.
"Bye Koromaru-doggy! Come back soon!" The clone that was playing with the shiba inu rejoined them. Now they were moving on to better things and they had the right amount of clones to do so, great! Going outside as well, Nise nodded to the lecture.
The real Nise turned towards the clone who had been chatting with Chie. Looking at each other with a little bit of expectation, they both began executing hand signs in sync. It was almost like twin telepathy, except they were the same person in two different bodies of course. It was even to the point where the clone began gossiping with Nise about how to Chie, someone of the Hokage rank was no better than a desk clerk. How cool, how chic! She felt inspired herself. Next time she saw the Hokage, she'd drop all pretenses as well.
"Alrightie, this shouldn't be too bad, yeah?" Another Nise clone turned towards Hiniko and all her clones. She... couldn't actually identify which one was the real Hiniko so the Nise clone stepped to the side and waited for one to approach her. "Yo so I'll let you take the lead, yeah? I'm pretty good at watching people- not that I watch people a lot or anything! I mean I just... Uh..... hm. Whatever." The clone would sync with with the hand signs Hiniko's clone would perform.
The third clone would find one of the three Chie's, probably a clone but that was more due to probability than any personal guessing skill and nodded carefully. This made her more nervous than with Hiniko, Chie was probably faster at hand seals but Nise had no idea. As she began syncing hand signs, she found it easier and easier after a while. Maybe it was due to being a puppeteer but she found reading hand motions wasn't too hard and soon she would be able to Korabo with Chie.
After finishing the training, Nise noticed the arrival of three others.
"Oh sup! New blood. This one's Chie!" All four Nises said in unison and then pointed to different Chie's at the same time. [OOC]:
First Class: Puppeteer ____Discipline → Army of One: The user makes use of their puppetry skills to become a one man army, increasing the overall output potential that their signature weapons can dish out by allowing them to control puppets according to one [1] rank above their own. In other words, at D-rank, they can control one puppet per hand, whereas other disciplines require both hands for one puppet. To maximize this potential, the users puppets gain a +3 weapon mechanism per puppet. Additionally, their chakra strings are significantly tougher than other puppet user's, making any chakra string technique act a rank higher. For D-rank, this bonus only works for techniques D rank and lower, C-rank for C rank and lower, B-rank for B rank and lower, A-rank for A rank and lower, and S-rank for S rank and lower.
Second Class: Sensor ____Discipline → Resolution: The user is more determined to get fine details from his sensory techniques, but in order to get this type of clarity the user's range of the technique is reduced by half. The user is able to discover type of technique that is about to be active (fuuin, genjutsu, ninjutsu, custom jutsu, complex tai and buki), even specifics such as Bloodline type and rank. Additionally, the user can gain similar information about any chakra source in their sensory technique's range, including what bloodline the person possesses, assuming the user has seen the bloodline before, and approximately how large their chakra pool is.
With little time to celebrate they were being moved along into learning the next thing. Hiniko wondered how much they were going to be covering today as she follwed Chie outside. She instructed them that the next thing they were to use would be Karabo. If they were going to work as a true team, then this is what they were going to need. Hiniko watched as Chie and her clones formed a strong tornado combining her strength with the clones. It was fascinating and Hiniko couldn't wait to try it.
As soon as instructions were given, she turned to her clone to begin working. Hiniko began going through the basic hand signs. and with minimal effort her clone copied her. It was a little slow at first, only a second difference between the two. However this was hinikos body, her chakra, her energy. She understood how her body and mind worked, soon she had mastered it with her clone.
Meanwhile a second clone had turned to work with a Nise who was telling her to take the lead."Sure! I don't mind at all" she smiled. "This will be fun!" This is where she was excited. Working with a team was one of the things she looked forward to the most, and this was a huge part of making that happen. Slowly she raised her hands and began working through hand signs, slowly building her speed and concentration on Nise. Within a short amount of time the two of them were mirroring one another perfectly. Honestly it was cool to watch.
The most challenging part came when Hinikos last clone stepped up to work with Chie. She knew that Chie must have a much faster speed then she did when working hand signs. It was going to take a lot of concentration. Hiniko gave the nod that she was ready to go. Hiniko was clumsily trying to go through hand signs now, focusing and trying to feel for which one would come next. Soon her speed picked up, and within a short time she was able to mirror Chie as she had done with Nise and herself.
After spending some time practicing she stopped, and watched the new set of people. New graduates? She watched them curiously. Each of them were very unique.
Chie observed Nise and Hinoko finish their training of Korabo. The two clones by Hinoko and Chie followed suit for the handseal they were moving. Hinoko was indeed clumsy, but she was earnest. There was a serious effort in how she molded her handseals. It was easy for the Chie clone to follow the beat Hinoko moved. Her hands followed a similar, but proper format of handseal. When the two finished, an illusionary clone appeared between the two which took the properties of a fusion of Chie and Hinoko. She was quite cute looking, and a perfect split between the two."Excellent work!" The Chie clone said with gusto.
Meanwhile, the second clone was genuinely impressed with the ease which Nise merged handseals. As quick as they were, however, the molding wasn't as clear as it was with Hinoko's handseal. Even without sensory powers, Chie could tell with just handseal the procedure of handseal how well one molds handseals. Nonetheless, the Chie clone matched Nise in every aspect. When the two finished, a clone emerged which appeared as a fusion of Nise and Chie. Surprisingly, Nise's characteristic's were more dominant in the fused clone. "Interesting." The Chie clone said observing the .
At the same time, the real Chie waited to speak until all three people arrived. She wanted to deal with each one individually, but they just kept coming like rabbits. One boy was again under the assumption that San was the kage. What a joke. She wanted to correct Isamu, but then Shota loudly introduced himself. The second male, a very tall and kind of cute guy approached as anxious as a chinchilla. Chie knew that she was going to need a more gentle hand to deal with that one. Finally, a whirlwind of a girl showed up and stopped at Chie and the other's feet. She sighed as from her antics she was able to figure out she was Torhu Nara. The academy had records about Miss Nara's... vigorous passion.
"Welcome guys. So we already got training on the shadow clone technique, so do get caught up you better square up!" She said nonchalantly to them. She wasn't nearly as nervous with the second group as she was with the first one. The girl leaped back ten feet as she brought her two hands in front of her chest, and her index and middle finger formed a cross like t shape. In a puff of smoke three more of her materialized into existence. "As Hinoko and Nise already learned, this is the shadow clone technique. The way to perform it is rather simple!"
Chie had her clones move up to each of the three newbies individually. She then sighed as she saw that Hinoko and Nise were stuck while she was getting the new kids situated. "I didn't think through..." She said with a sigh. How was she supposed to teach two lessons at the same time? Should she skip the jutsu they already learned? The two clones turned back to face her as they crossed their arms and waited for instructions. Somehow, the face of frustration on their faces was even more infuriating since it was her own face staring right back at her. "Take some initiative you two! Teach them how to body flicker." She said sharply as her hand rose above her head. The two nodded as they faced back to their respective students. The two performed a short string of handseals as they disappeared in a puff of smoke. A few meters passed before they appeared right back. "Body flicker is a fast speed movement which allows you to move quickly one way either a short or far distance at a fast speed. It's best for escaping a bad situation, but it has use if you want to get up and personal with people. The hand seals for it are tiger, rat, horse, dog. The chakra molding you should think about is a quick flare as it projects forward in the direction you shall travel."
While the clones instructed Hinoko and Nise, Chie took her focus back on the three clones who were awkwardly standing in front of the three new comers. "I wish my clones would naturally react a bit more." She said with a sigh. Somehow Chie had a hard time making her clones act natural. They were excellent in combat, since they were extremely focused to the task Chie needed them to. However, she couldn't really make them pass for Chie in social situations. Hopefully as she taught these new kids how to perform the clones that the clones learn how to act on their own, since they are supposed to be identical to the castor. Regardless, she had training to perform.
"So if you guys would like, please raise your hands to your chest and form the handseal you see the clones forming in front of you." Chie said as the clones mirrored the sign Chie just previously used. "Remember that handseals are only one part of the puzzle. The other is chakra molding. And for this chakra molding, imagine your own personal chakra network as a diagram. Make a mental image of it. Now, copy that diagram in your mind and make copies of it. That'll allow your chakra molding to create the clones in real life. Just be careful with how much chakra you give each clone. You don't want to give any one clone too much, unless you're planning something foolish." She said. She started to feel nervous about her ability to juggle multiple students at the same time. It was her hope that she was not failing as she felt she was.
OOC:Alright sorry for the long post! I tried to underline to help distinguish who is being talked to who. I promise this isn't going to just be jutsu learning the experience. I want to get everyone caught up with at least body flicker, shadow clones, and korabo. Then we can start getting some missions going. Hinoko feel free to make a list of any jutsu you want from Chie's list, but if you don't have any particular ninjutsu you want then I'll just give you some of the jutsu that Nise wants, since they'll probably also help you too. Also I did two training post of Shadow Clones so that you guys definitely only have to do one, regardless of your training reductions. And since Body Flicker is D-ranked, obviously you guys can just learn that move in one post too. ◆￤ CHAKRAx 300/ 900x◆￤ STAMINAx 295/ 295x◆￤ RYOx 600 x◆￤ ACx 11,500 ◆￤ Ninjutsu / Ninjutsux◆￤ C-RANK x◆￤ Geninx◆￤ KONOHAGAKURExxxxxx
"Eh? That's... is it supposed to do that?" Nise mused, cocking her head to the side as she compared her Korabo techniques with Chie and Hiniko to the ones Hiniko and Chie did together. Theirs looked a lot more... balanced than Nise's. What was that about? Is it something about my personality? She wondered. That seemed odd... Nise couldn't figure out if it was anything else. Chakra-wise Chie should have more and Hiniko was her equal as a genin. This... might keep her up at night. At least it was something to think about.
Meanwhile, Chie looked positively overwhelmed as she began looking haplessly between her two student groups. She finally yelled at her clones to take initiative and teach them the Body Flicker technique. It was a useful one, Nise recalled, because it let you get away quickly and getting away was what Nise expected she'd have to do a lot of. Her clones, as well, decided they would do their own training at the jutsu wall. Heading off over there in a trio, they waved at one of Hiniko's clone to join them. Since they'd gotten to know each other a little bit, Nise was now brimming with curiosity.
"Hey hey, Hiniko. Where are you from?""Why a ninja?""You like ramen?" They asked in unison then looked at each other, slightly annoyed, and re-asked the questions one at a time. This was, of course, to the backdrop of what sounded like, and actually were, fireworks as they practiced different bloodline techniques. It was certainly a nosy area now that she was comfortable with Hiniko.
Training:
-3 Learning Reduction The first Nise clone formed several hand signs and then stomped on the ground. A fan shaped delta spread out in front of her for several meters. She focused her chakra on the fan shape, willing something to come out of it. At first, a small bottle rocket flew out. Then it was followed by some firecrackers. Channeling more chakra, trying to figure out the specifics, Nise slowly tested the availibility of the fireworks from the technique. All sorts! She was careful not to use them all at once since that'd be far more disruptive than what she already was doing. [Learned Fan-Shaped Detonation (C-rank) in 2 posts]
A second Nise began performing hand signs as well and then began spinning her hand. As she did, a large earthen wheel appeared in front of her. It was filled with explosives and as they began to burn, the wheel dropped to the ground and began rotating faster. Nise directed it at the jutsu wall at first bu then had a realization. Shooting out chakra strings, she attached them to the wheel and began to manipulate its direction and bearing. It was far more imprecise than the art of puppetry but the foundation was there for her to build on. [Learned Spinning Wheel (C-rank) in 2 posts]
The third Nise then sat on the ground, cross-legged. She would probably be the easiest one for Hiniko to talk to as she was focusing on clay molding rather than active explosives and fireworks. She focused her chakra and created some clay she fed herself to both hands. Her hand mouths began chewing and molding. This was easier than C1, really. The shape and idea was pretty simple so the tough part was just working her mouth to get a 3-foot length of clay out. After a while, she pulled out two whips simultaneously and began inspecting them... It had taken chakra to make, she'd keep them for an emergency or perhaps a trap. [Learned Explosive Release: Grenade Belt (C-rank) in 2 posts]
The real Nise would listen attentively to the Chie's instructions. It wasn't too complicated, especially after learning the Shadow Clone Technique. Alright, tiger, rat, horse, dog aaand BOOF! Nise burst into motion in a puff of smoke and motion, ending up on the far side of the academy with a comic full-body halt. "WHOA."

Isamu Yamanaka
"Well... this is certainly strange... but I think I can get the gist of what's going on here." Isamu closed his eyes as he put his hands together, forming each hand seal carefully. He liked the repetition of training; each hand seal felt calming and familiar. He was excellent at chakra molding after all of his clan training, too, so this was very much a cake walk. With practiced ease, he produced clone after clone after clone after clone after clone. Ah, five copies of himself. He had one for Chie, the two students, Shota, and Tohru. [ B | Shadow Clone ]
He put his hands together in order to focus on his chakra. He focused it to his clasped hands, which began to glow his signature green color. With a little bit of focus, he imagined moving to the opposite side of the room. He grinned as he exerted his chakra with his intentions. Suddenly, he appeared at the other end of the room, flicker appropriate. [ D | Body Flicker ]
He also made an additional clone for himself, which appeared directly in front of him. His other five clones were in front of Chie where he was standing earlier; ready to be paired up with anyone ready to Korabo. "It's kind of strange to spend this one on one time with myself with others watching," he joked with the same straight face he'd walked in with.

So she hadn't missed the entire class eh? Good. Catching up was easy in her book. Falling in with Isamu and Shota, she listened intently. While the basis of the shadow clone was a simple one she had heard that its execution was the kicker. While she was... decent, at ninjutsu she was wondering if she would struggle with this. Following her sensei's instructions and identification of the seals required she took a deep breath and turned her mind to think as she was instructed. Making a mental copy of her chakra network wasn't difficult for her. After all, despite how hard it was to tell, she was a Nara and she was exceptionally intelligent. Though more due to her relentless study then natural intellect. After all her mothers favorite quote was,"Let them underestimate you because of that adorable face. They will regret it soon enough." It was a slightly mean statement but she enjoyed the sentiment of it. Molding her chakra as instructed she formed the seal. Then with a deep breath she simply closed her eyes as a small stream of pink butterflies peeled from her skin and fluttered around her. Within a second a puff of smoke erupted from the space before her creating a clone of herself. Opening her eyes however the potentially serious shinobi was instantly replaced with her noted passions,"OH MY GOD I LOOK ADORABLE!" Though in her slightly weird mind alone she noticed something was off with the clone. So donning a pouty face she stepped forward and swiftly adjusted the bow in the clones hair followed quickly by the two pics she used to hold said hair in place. Once she was satisfied with the clones appearance she smiled and faced Chi,"Tada! one satisfactory clone." [1/1]
Though her lesson was incomplete as she had only successfully performed one of the two. Taking a deep breath she lightly pushed her clone to the side of the classroom,"Stand here and look cute please." Returning to her spot she attended the rest of the information provided to her by Chi's clones regarding the application of the Shunshin jutsu. While she personally figured the move would be pretty sweet cause it could be applied to both rapid offense and defense. Not to mention if she was ever late she could just shunshin a couple of times to catch back up to people. Win win right? Though it became somewhat apparent that this particular lesson was for the other group. But why not try it as well? After all it wasn't like the teacher had told them NOT to. So mimicking the seals; tiger, rat, horse, dog. She spiked her chakra creating more pink butterflies before the butterflies swarmed her and she was gone... Though she quickly re-appeared a few feet away on the other side of the classroom right next to her clone. To which both her and said clone offered each other a quick high five. Facing Chi she smiled,"That was fun!" [1/1]

Chak:: 200/200 Stam:: 325/325 Ryo: 0 AC:0
Following Isamu’s lead Shota bought his hands up to his and slowly closed one eye, still peeking at his friends techniques. Shota barely scraped through the academy when it came to Ninjutsu, not from lack of skill, but from lack of interest. However he refused to disappoint his family and comrades Isamu and Tohru. Initially nothing happened. Shota just sat there with his eyes closed and hands together, wearing the most relaxed face. One would think he was focusing on the jutsu, however he was simply assessing how skilled his two comrades were. How had this been so fun to them he pondered. Finally Shota snapped into focus, a slight twitch in his eyes would give this away. The instructors directions were clear, However this was nothing like smithing, where one can see the materials and energy they are working with. With intense focus, blocking out all thoughts of armor and the forge, Shota was able to successfully replicate his chakra network inside of his mind and bring it to the physical realm. Three clones would appear before him. Two were perfect copies...the other was a bit short and thin, however it was immediately noticeable. [shadow clone]
“I’ll count this a success”
Shouta muttered and he peeked at he 3 clones. As he opened his eyes he would see Isamu disappear right before his eyes. It wasn’t until Shouta caught Isamu’s movements from the corner of his eye, that he realized that he was clear on the other side of the training ground. Quickly both of his eyes opened as if he couldn’t believe what he’d just seen. Instantly Shota thought of how convenient that move would be to get around the shop, he could greatly increase his productivity if he had this technique in his arsenal. Quickly closing his eyes, he followed Chie’s instructions to the letter. Focusing intensely on where Isamu had just transported himself. Suddenly he would feel a rush go though his whole body. Similar to a chill going down ones spine. [body flicker]
Opening his eyes he would find himself beside Isamu, wearing a massive smile. This day was turning out to be quite interesting for reclusive young Shota.
[Techniques Used] Learned: shadow clone, Body flicker
ᑃ Kya arrived and got to work in a different area from the gathered new ninja and Chie, giving a nod to the woman as she started her training. [Free training: 1 Post For Ember Clone, 1 Post for Incendiary, 1 for Bed of FIre, 1 for Fireproof, 2 for cloud style flame slash, 2 for burning clone, -2 for fire prison.] "CHIE! IM HERE TO TEQACH THEM FORMLESS"
Chie was amazed at how fast everyone was learning. Not only did the new kids learn the shadow clones, but they also excelled enough to also learn the technique Chie assigned for Nise and Hinoko. Hinoko seemed tired, however, from the constant training, which caused Chie to realize that she may be training these kids too hard. Her expression soften as she walked past her clones and walked over to the girl. "Hey. Why don't you train on your own and then come back when you're ready?" She said gently. She was somewhat aware that Nise was also trying to get her attention, but hopefully she could respect that Hinoko needed a breath. Regardless, the young woman moved back to her clones and spoke to the remaining students.
"Excellent work you four! You guys truly do not suck." She said with a bright grin with one hand on her side. She was worried that these kids were going to lag behind like an online gamer in the boondocks. As she paused, however, she heard Kya shout out over to her. Apparently that girl wanted to train them all further in combat. Chie turned her attention back to the kids as she then pointed in the direction of Kya. "Alright guys you heard her! Head over to her and learn how to punch people or stuff." She said sternly. Chie wasn't altogether too familiar with what Kya meant when she said formless. She had to assume it was taijutsu or bukijutsu related since formless did not exist in the world of ninjutsu, so maybe she'll pay attention to it as well if she had the time. For the moment, however, she would wait for the kids to leave so that she could write up progress reports for the genin to the Hokage, who was clearly NOT San.

ᑃ Kya meandered over towards the group, gathered such as they were already, and gave a smile. "Sorry, I was a little excited. Back where I am from, formless is what we call fighting without a style, or form as it were. So, quick introduction since the Hokage happened to have promoted me not too long ago." She stood, legs spread shoulder length with her Devak, her weapon, over turned in her hand to be stabbed into the ground at her side, with her arm stretched to full extension with the palm resting on the large weapon's handle. Her eyes, sharngan almost perpetually at Mangekyo, would probably look weirdly cartoonish, or cultish. She was unperturbed however, because her Jashin necklace, so it was called here, had always gotten Moody Blues ever the weary eye.
|"I am Kya, Jounin of the hidden leaf. I'm glad to see all of you succeeded in not sucking, as your teacher so eloquently put it. Ninjutsu training is important work, which I cannot overstate. I myself have blood that demands effective usage of it." As an example, she inhaled deeply, not requiring seals but still taking time to mold chakra in her lungs before deeply expelling a vibrant flame that rose to the sky in a direct line, tongues of fire and heat trailing behind as it disappeared behind a cloud. "Power from the spirit is something I preach to my followers in the religion of Magatai. To you, Chie, you have my thanks, and an offer to join in the class! I missed your lessons, but I'm sure I'll be in need of your services soon; only fair I extend the offer." She would give a light bow of the head towards her. "Now, as for the rest of us, my fair friends, I have come to teach you much the opposite lesson. I am here because power from the body is important as well. Whether it is your intention to punch, to kick, to throw an opponent or trap them in submission. If the sword calls to you," she offered lifting the half moon into the air witha masterful wrist motion that also put the weapon over her head, coming down in a full rotation with enough speed to blow wind towards the ground, and causing the ceremonial rings on it's back to jingle. "or maybe you find yourself called to the scythe? To accentuate on her point, she flicked the weapon with a spin, the blade extending and curving into the shape of a scythe that flung about in a dangerous but completely controlled circle about her form. "It is just as important that you keep up with exercising your body. Now, that's enough for showing off. Meet me in the Dojo. Your Hokage want's to see you whipped into shape, and I'm inclined not to disobey her lordship. Questions concerns and comments will be addressed there, and when we finish up, perhaps I can look into some missions once you've rested up." Hopefully she had managed to inspire some sort of motivation to be taught into them, but she waws prepared for them to be more or less mopey about it.
Isamu dispersed all of the clones he'd made for Korabo training. It seems they were moving forward, to some formless training. He tucked his hands into his pockets, feeling heated up from the little bit of training they'd already begun. It seemed like their first week as Genin was planned and assisted; after training, they'd begin some missions. He had a gut feeling that after that, they'd finish up some Korabo training and maybe even get official squads. There were two teachers and enough of them to create two squads.
He followed to the dojo wordless, sparing an encouraging glance at both Shota and Tohru.

Poof, poof, poof. The three shadow clones Nise had vanished in puffs of smoke as she dispelled them. A sudden flood of information filled her mind in a way that left her going "Huh." It was kind of weird, but hey now she knew a whole bunch of techniques too. She felt like she was making great time! After all, once she finished training she could... stop training. Go on some missions, make some ryo, and then go shopping.
So Nise wasn't really overjoyed when the Jounin, Kya, showed up. Physical work? Nrgh. That was the least exciting news she had heard all day. She shot a somewhat pleading look at Chie, looking for some salvation, but Chie had gone over to look at Hiniko. In her moment of need, Nise had been abandoned. Trying to minimize her grumbling, she collected her wooden training dummy and her crossbow and followed her new teacher. At least she could maybe use the training dummy as a stand-in for her own exertion.
First Class: Puppeteer ____Discipline → Army of One: The user makes use of their puppetry skills to become a one man army, increasing the overall output potential that their signature weapons can dish out by allowing them to control puppets according to one [1] rank above their own. In other words, at D-rank, they can control one puppet per hand, whereas other disciplines require both hands for one puppet. To maximize this potential, the users puppets gain a +3 weapon mechanism per puppet. Additionally, their chakra strings are significantly tougher than other puppet user's, making any chakra string technique act a rank higher. For D-rank, this bonus only works for techniques D rank and lower, C-rank for C rank and lower, B-rank for B rank and lower, A-rank for A rank and lower, and S-rank for S rank and lower.
Second Class: Sensor ____Discipline → Resolution: The user is more determined to get fine details from his sensory techniques, but in order to get this type of clarity the user's range of the technique is reduced by half. The user is able to discover type of technique that is about to be active (fuuin, genjutsu, ninjutsu, custom jutsu, complex tai and buki), even specifics such as Bloodline type and rank. Additionally, the user can gain similar information about any chakra source in their sensory technique's range, including what bloodline the person possesses, assuming the user has seen the bloodline before, and approximately how large their chakra pool is.
