 ~ Aya ~ Silent Schemer ~
After meditating for a quiet a long time, Aya found herself dozing off into a state of drowsiness. She was snapped back to the real world when another proctor was calling upon her. She looked over her shoulder innocently and waited for further instructions. The man smiled at her and gestured to the board at the front of the classroom, Shadow Clone Jutsu was scribbled across it neatly. Aya nodded to the man and began to center herself. She quietly thought of herself and all her physical traits, and placed her hands together. She closed her eyes, and began to dispel a suitable amount of chakra into the jutsu. She preformed the hand signs necessary for this jutsu, The Ram, Snake and finally the Tiger. A puff of smoke surrounded the short young Nara, and soon two more Naras were present, standing in front of the man. The man smiled and began to check something down on the piece of paper he had. Aya didn’t smile back, but simply placed her hands on the shoulder of the two clones, making them disappear in a puff of smoke.
Then a man came into the room, wearing the same attire as the man who had originally asked Aya to perform the jutsu. The man ventured over to the two, greeting them with a nod and a wave. He whispered some words to his co-worker, who laughed and gestured to the young girl in front of him.
“She’s already performed the jutsu and passed on my standards. But if you want to test her too, be my guest.” The man offered. From what Aya heard, she could figure out that she was going to have to do the jutsu again. She sighed heavily, and placed her hands together and centered herself again. Once she was sure she was going to be successful and let a larger than needed amount of chakra. The puff of smoke was larger and two more clones where present. Five Ayas were now staring at the two men at the front of the class, looking bored. The two men nodded in approval and scratched something on their boards. The girls looked at each other, before looking at the teachers with the clipboards.
“Are we done yet?” She asked in bored tone. She was never one to be polite, but she always knew where respect was due. The two men nodded to her and told her to go with whatever business she was doing before. She nodded and bowed, before walking away and heading for the library to soak up more information of chakra control.435/300 [Bushin no Jutsu: Complete]

~ Aya ~ Silent Schemer ~
Upon seeing a book being propped out among the other on a book shelf, Aya was instantly attracted to it. She walked quietly over to it, taking it in her small hand and tried to genially take it from the shelf, but soon found it was firmly squished between the other book’s weight. She sighed and ripped the book from it’s spot, getting a face full of dust. She coughed the dust out of her lung and looked at the book.
‘The art of substitution.’ Was neatly written on the book. Aya tipped her head to the side, wondering what it was about. She took a few steps backwards, then sat down in front of another bookcase, and opened the book, and began to read everything it had to offer.
Soon the girl now knew what the ‘Art of substitution’ was and how to perform it. She smiled at herself, knowing the teacher would more or less ask her to show him how to perform it. She tucked the book under her arm and began to make her way to the training grounds in the back of the school.
Soon, she was found in the middle of the small clearing, with a few other people around, chatting to one another, not paying attention to the schemer. The girl placed her hand together, performing the clone jutsu . Once she had her opponent, she began to run around the clearing, while her clone picked up some weapons to throw at her creator. Aya kept a close eye on her clone, and clapped her hands together. She centered herself, and began to perform hand signs. Her clone began throw multiple things at her, attempting to hit her. Aya’s hands quickly flashed in a flurry of movement, Tiger, Boar, Ox, Dog and finally Snake. The things being thrown at her hit her dead on, but she soon disappeared in a puff of smoke, and a log fell from the cloud of smoke where she had once been. She had successfully pulled off a jutsu she had read in a book. The clone disappeared when the weapons she threw were thrown back at her. Aya jumped down from the tree she had chosen to hide in after the substitution, and came face to face with the proctor who was in charge of watching and keeping the students out of trouble in the training grounds. He looked mildly impressed, but he didn’t hold a clip board like all the other teachers. He looked down at the girl who had recently gotten the hang of substitution.
“Those were good moves and the substitution was well done. But you were a bit sloppy. Try harder and you’ll be great at it. But I guess you pass.” The man said. Aya looked up at him and smiled slightly. He was always judging students like they should already be able to carry out harsh missions. Coming from him, this was a compliment.493/400 [Art of Substitution: Complete]

~ Aya Nara ~ Silent Schemer ~
After leaving the training grounds, Aya was making her way back to the library to return the book. Soon after arriving, the girl was looking at the window. She sat on the large window sill and watched the outside world. She was looking at the clouds when a leaf caught her attention. She quickly averted her attention to the trees that were lined up around the academy. She remembered something one of the teachers were trying to teach her. She was to run up a tree with the use of her chakra, and get to the top of the tree. This process was much harder than they made it seem. When Aya had first tried it, she had failed miserably, and ended up having back pain for the rest of the day. She watched the trees for a few more minutes, before getting off her post and heading towards the tree line.
After a few more minutes of venturing through the halls of the Academy, she came to the same tree she had been watching when she had perched on the window sill. She placed her hands on her hips, and glared at the tree. She began to focus her chakra into her feet. She closed her eyes, her head lowering a bit, and began to feel the chakra under her. She needed a bit more focus, so she brought her hands up and placed them together, allowing her to focus more. She took a deep breath in, before running at the tree. She quickly launched herself into the air, her feet quickly made contact. She was able to run up the tree a little bit more than half way, before she began to lose momentum and fall back down. She made a mental note of where she had gotten on the tree. She landed on her feet, but stumbled a bit. She regained her posture and looked up at the tree. She wasn’t going to leave till she mastered this.
A few hours later, Aya was found sitting at the bottom of the tree, panting slightly. She had spent the last few hours focusing and trying to get to the top of the tree, but she only had limited chakra. Her hair was draped on the ground, with slight dirt mixed in with it. She looked at her feet, calculating the amount of chakra she would need. She couldn’t use too little, or else she would fall off the tree and hurt herself. But she couldn’t use too much, or else the tree will become damage under the weight of her chakra. Aya stood up again, and took a few more paces and faced the tree. She took a deep breath in, then began to run at it. Once her foot connected with the bark of the tree, she adjusted her chakra so the tree could support her. She ran as fast as she could up the trunk of the tree and soon she could see the top. With the goal in mind, she began to run faster. The bark under her feet was beginning to feel weak, making her lessen her chakra just a bit. The tree was able to support her, and she was able to keep herself steady. She made it to the top, tired and panting still, but she still felt proud of herself. The young girl sat down on the branch she was on and looked down at the ground. She was up fairly high, but not enough to scare her from the heights. She dangled her feet over the edge, happy with her success and happy she wouldn’t have to practice on the technique anymore. She leaned on the trunk and yawned, feeling the exhaustion catching up with her. She smiled at herself, feeling like she had accomplished a lot.

~ Aya Nara ~ Silent Schemer ~
Aya was sleeping peacefully in the tree where she had taken a lot of effort to climb and scale. She was tired after the whole experience and had decided a nap was of order. She had a blissful sleep, till the sun shine had begun to shine off a shiny surface and shine in the young girl’s face. This disrupts her sleep and she was brought back to reality. She lazily lifted her hand up to shield her face from the intruding light, and quickly assessed where the light was coming from. The light wavered and swayed with whatever surface was oddly deforming. She found out quickly it was the sun reflecting off the surface of the water from the swimming pool from inside the Academy. From her previous experience, she quickly got a idea, and made a quick decision that she wanted to try it out. The brunette jumped down from the tree, landing aqwardly, but leveling herself out quickly, and began to make her way towards the large body of water.
She walked out of the change room, with the usual bathing suit on, knowing she was indeed going to get wet. She pulled her ponytail out, letting her long hair hang around her kneecaps, and stood at the edge of the deepest part of the pool, which was roughly 11 feet. Which was more than twice her size. She frowned at the water, not really wanting to get wet, but knowing she would fail the first few times. She began to focus on her feet, much like what she did with the tree, but changed one thing. She tried to shift her chakra around, much like the water did. She was smart enough to know that water is constantly changing form and shape, so her chakra had to do the same. But something about her chakra just made her uneasy about the idea. She looked down to see the bottoms of her feet to see a faint glow of blue chakra, which she knew she would be as ready as she’ll ever been. Aya dangled her toes over the side of the edge, before taking a step onto the shifting surface. Most of her weight was on her left foot, but a fair amount was now on the unstable surface. Her foot was shifting on the surface for a moment, before sinking into it. Aya’s eyes went wide with shock, and her mouth opened to gasp, before she tipped forward and landed feet first into the water’s surface. She felt the cold water versus her warm body heat, and took a big mouthful of water. She closed her eyes and swum to the surface of the water. Her head broke the surface, as she spat the mouthful of water out. She pouted at herself, knowing this was going to be so much more difficult. She swum to the side and climbed out, heaving herself out. She shook her head, standing up and facing the water, before trying one more time.
After many attempts and a lot of fails, the burnette was about to give up. It was something she wasn’t accustomed to. She was always wanting to know all the things she could learn, eger to learn ever she could. And this was something she needed to learn and get over with. She glared at the water, before standing up to the edge again. She placed her hands together, attempting to gain more chakra.
‘Wait… Is that my problem?’ she questioned herself. Maybe she wasn’t getting enough chakra into her feet? The girl shrugged. It wouldn’t hurt to try. She breathed in and began to feel the rest of her chakra center into her feet. She let out her breath, and advanced to the edge. She didn’t look at the surface, she simply walked out onto it. She felt herself fall for a second, and stood still where she was. After a few moments, Aya opened her eyes. She found herself balancing oddly on the surface of the water, her feet were under half an inch of water, which made her extremely happy. A smile broke out on her face, as she pumped her hand into the air, happy with her success.
“Yes! I did it!” She exclaimed in a soft yet loud voice. The yell echoed off the walls, heard by anyone near by. Due to her lack of focus, she began to fall into the water. She yet out a short squeak, and quickly resurfaced, laughing.

 It was getting late Luna had decided that it was enough training for the day. She was exhausted and wanted to sleep, upset because she couldn't get the hang of it. The transformation technique - henge no jutsu. No matter how many times she tried she just couldn't get it. Each time she tried she just turned into a deformed body. ~ I know I'm doing something wrong but what is it!? I followed everything sensei said...each instruction to the tee. So what is it? ~ "Let me get some rest...maybe tomorrow I'll do better..." She sighs and than heads to her dorm. When she gets there, she begins to settle herself into her bed. Re-thinking about the class that day.
~ Henge no jutsu...a transformation technique...used to deceive others. Once mastered you can transform into any person or thing. So what was I doing wrong? Let me stop thinking of it now and get some sleep, before I go crazy. ~
Luna is beginning to wake up still half asleep - she checks the time. "Five AM class doesn't even begin till another 3 hours from now." She yawns trying to go back to sleep but deciding a few minutes later to start her day - she gets herself up. Once she's showered and fully dressed she goes out by the field where she's been training by herself these past few days. ~ Well seeing that I can't sleep I might as well begin my days training before class starts. ~
After getting her thoughts together by meditates for 30 minutes she begins to practice again what she had learned in class but yet again she begins to fail for the first few times. ~ What is it that I'm doing wrong...~ Than the thought of her mother begins to go through her head. It was a memory she had long forgotten - it was a rainy night and there was lightening. She was scared that night...her mother came into her bedroom to tuck her in. Her mom singing a short lullaby until Luna finally fell asleep. ~ That's it! Let me do that - focus in that image of mama but it's so shaky I was only 4 but let me try maybe it'll work. ~ Luna begins to think real hard on her mother's image. Every little detail of what she looked like. ~ There I got it. Now let me try it. Maybe this time I'll get it right... ~ With the image of her mother now in her mind, Luna begins with making the hand symbols. Completing the technique, perfectly this time. She whispers "I miss you so
much..."

Logan Hyuuga, the Blue Byakugan ((Appearance: He has very large blue Byakugan eyes which appear to lack pupils. He wears a cloak, pants, gloves, a shirt, four scarfs, and a mask. they are all black and made of special materials. These clothes make it so only his eyes can be seen.)) The day had begun, in the shinboi academy. A child, clad in all black, with the oddest, large blue eyes, entered his classroom. He had come in before any of the other students, while it was still empty. He took a seat near the back, as he tended to prefer not to draw attention to himself. He waited calmly as the other students had begun to enter. It took about ten minutes. After all students, basically, had arrived, the teacher moved forward and began the class by announcing names. The child in black raised their hand, as his name was called. The name Hyuuga struck him as it was called. The Hyuuga was one of the most prestigous families, not only in their jutsu, but their achievements and power with in the village. Both and individuals, and as a clan, their members easily rivaled the best and surpassed most of the others. They were arguably the most powerful clan in the village. Yet, they were also one of the most troubled. It was this trouble between the main branch and the side branch, that was the reason for Logan's existence and why he was in the odd state he was in. He looked up, leaving his thoughts, as the teacher began to explain the first of the jutsus they would practice. "The First jutsu we will address is the Transformation jutsu. It is a technique that will allow one to take on the appearance, and, to an extent, physical form and nature of someone or something else. You will be able to look like, and sound like them, if done correctly." The teacher quickly formed a handseal. "Allow me to demonstrate. Now I only need a single seal to preform this technique. Given your inexperience, and the lack of chakra control most of you have, you may need to use several seals."There was a blast of smoke, as the teacher before them, took on the form of the hokage. He smiled at them, speaking in the hokage's voice, "As you see, my disguise is perfect, and, provided I copy the mannerisms and other aspects of the hokage, It would be near impossible to tell the difference while in this state." Logan watched carefully as he did all this. Before him now, the teacher stood as a perfect visual and vocal copy of the hokage to the unaided eye. Logan formed a handseal, concentrating his chakra, as his blue Byakugan activated, changing slightly in appearance. He could percieve the reaction of the jutsu throughout the room. Some of the newer ones were amazed by the display. Others were less impressed, having been in the class longer, or having experienced it from other ninja. Logan focused his attention on the teacher then. He could see that their body was enveloped in a very faint layer of chakra that altered their physical form. Below the chakra, he could identify the teacher. Such a technique could prove useful for him. Of course, it wouldn't fool another Hyuuga or a particularly aware ninja. The teacher then released the jutsu. With another puff of smoke, he was back to normal. He then urged to class to stand up and prepare to practice the jutsu. "Ok, everyone come up, in a single-file line. I want to see what you can do. I need each of you to attempt to take the form of me. Just look at me, and listen to my voice. Imagine me in your mind, gather your chakra and use handseals to shape it. Concentrate and make yourself take on my form." Logan watched, one by one as the students stepped forward. They each did their best to use the jutsu. Most didn't do very well. Some couldn't even get anything to happen. Others, after a blast of smoke, didn't change. Some managed to change, but took on a rather ineffective form of him. Some were deformed, some too short, some too wide. A few though, did pretty well. They took on near perfect forms of him. A few among the few were perfect, and even managed to replicate his voice. All the while, as Logan moved through the line, his Byakugan studied the teacher and the other students as they used their technique. Just before it was his turn, Logan shut off his Byakugan so he could put all his focus in the technique. Finally, Logan stepped forward. He placed his hands together, forming a seal. He felt his chakra flowing through, shifting. He formed a second one to increase the flow, and then a third to make it shape itself over his form. The jutsu activated, as smoke blasted out from him. As it cleared, there Logan stood, now a perfect copy of his teacher, matching every detail he could. Everything from his clothes and headband, to his physical stature, to his shape, and even the minor distortions in his skin, and a small scar behind his ear. Logan spoke out calmly, in the teacher's voice. "I think I have completed this jutsu." He calmly smiled, met by the smile of the teacher, who nodded, before Logan transformed back to normal. He turned and walked past any others towards his seat. Logan watched and waited for the other students to finish. When finally, every member of the class had gone through the technique, the teacher prepared them for the next jutsu. "The next technique we will go over it known as the Clone technique. It is, for all means a purposes, a genjutsu. It produces illusionary clones of oneself. They have no real ability to affect the physical world, but they took and sound as if they are real. They make for an excellent distraction and can be used for effective misdirection. It can even be combined with the transformation technique for more effectiveness." He stepped forward, raised his hand in a seal, and seemingly out from his body three other bodies appeared. They appeared, for all means and purposes to be him. They all spoke in unison. "As you can see, it's nearly impossible to tell the difference without paying close attention to paticular things. These clones even cast false shadows. Of course, they can't fake certain things, like the bending of grass, and they can't apply weight to any object. So keep that in mind using them and when dealing with opponents who use them. Now as before, everyone come forward." Logan and the others stood up. they began to walk forward, towards the teacher. One by one, following the teacher's words, they began to use the clone jutsu. Or, at least they attempted to. As before, for some, nothing happened. A few of them managed to make clones, but they were hardly made, and not usable. Most were able to produce a single clone. Some could make 2. A small number were able to produce three. Logan had his Byakugan active again as he walked. He watched carefully as the students went through each of the motions. He also took note of the nature of the clones themselves. As his turn came up, he deactivated his Byakugan and brought his hands together into two seals. He formed one seal as he gathered his chakra, the second, as he shaped it and released it. Out from him, four illusionary clones took shape they stepped out from him, copying his movements. Logan waited as the teacher watched with appraisal. Then, with the teacher's approval, Logan dispelled the clones. He turned and walked back to his seat. He used this time to examine his fellow students. He had taken some notes on their skills, with both jutsus. Some seemed quite skilled in general, others appeared more specialized. And, as usual, there seemed to be those who could only be called... mediocre. Soon enough, the class finished with the clone jutsu. The teacher then spoke to the class, stepping closer to their seats, "Our next jutsu is one of the most effective techniques you will learn in class. Of course, given it's nature, we will have to move outside when it is going to be demonstrated and practiced. The jutsu, is the substitution jutsu. It is a technique that, using a burst of chakra, allows one to switch places with anything in their environment through high speed movements. It is combined with a slight illusionary effect, to make it appear, at first, that you were caught by any attack directed at oneself. Any object in the environment can be used, from a log, to a rock, to another human or animal, to even a trap or weapon." He turned and moved towards the door, raising his hand. "Come on, everyone, we are heading out to the fields to practice this one." Logan stood up, alongside the other students, and move to follow after him. They reached the outside area, and had gathered into a single group. The teacher turned to them, smiling. "Now, will someone, anyone, throw a shuriken at me." One of the students, acting with little hesitation, for an unknown reason, suddenly moved forward, grabbing a shuriken, and tossing it towards the teacher. Many of the students looked on in surprise, as this happened. The teacher didn't flinch, until the shuriken apparent hit him. A small amount of blood appeared to flow from the wound. This image played for about two seconds, before a puff of smoke rose, and his body had been replaced by a log. The next moment, the teacher stood behind the young man, whom had attacked him without hesitation. "Good, very good...but...you were brave enough to do it. However...that impulsiveness can be a bit dangerous. You didn't even take enough time to run it through your mind. You just, quite frankly, attacked your teacher." He chuckled then, before stepping past him. "It's quite alright, though. Now, I want each of you to team up into groups of two. Each of you shall throw a shuriken towards one another, and each of you shall attempt to use this technique. Don't worry, I will be watching, and making sure no one gets hurt." Logan turned, and face a fellow ninja. Each of them took a shuriken in their hand, while those around them all did the same. In a the next moment, shuriken went flying in various directions. Many handseals were used and puffs of smoke formed in the air, logs and rocks replaced many of the students. The teacher moved quickly through the groups, catching any shuriken with his bare hands before they could do any harm to the students that failed to complete the jutsu. Logan, meanwhile, tossed his shuriken forward. And in the next moment, quickly formed set of handseals. His partner did the same. With a burst of chakra, Logan disappeared with a puff of smoke as the shuriken had apparently hit him. He was replaced with a log, as was the other ninja. Logan appeared in the trees nearby, before jumping down. He approached the teacher, along with the others. The teacher dropped the shuriken. He turned to lead them all towards the nearby trees. He stretched lightly, before facing his students again. "Now then, our next lesson will be one in chakra control. The technique we will be practicing is the tree climbing technique." He looked out with a smile into the confused faces of the crowd. "Yes, we will be climbing trees...without hands." He stepped towards a tree, forming a handseal as he demonstrated. "You are going to attempt to climb trees, using only your feet. To do so, you will need to use your chakra. You will need to learn to direct chakra to a single part of your body. In this case it will be the soles of your feet. It may take awhile for you to get this. However, this technique can be essential, and open the way for many other jutsu. If you are able to master this jutsu, in theory, no jutsu should be beyond your reach. Allow me to demonstrate." He closed his eyes for but a moment, as dirt kicked up around his feet. He approached the tree and then placed his foot on it. To the amazement of some of the students, he calmly raised his other leg, and appeared to be supported by nothing. He placed his other foot on the tree, and stoo there, completely horizontal. Of course, he was held to the tree by his feet, but had to hold the rest of body up with his physical strength. He calmly began walking up the tree, apparently as easily as he walked along the earth. He reached a branch and stepped onto it. Walking along it, he soon stood upside down. He turned to the students, smiling, before letting go of the tree, and dropping down, flipping in the air to land on his feet. Logan watched, his Byakugan, again active. He observed the technique carefully. The teacher had a thin layer of chakra attached the soles of his feet. As he stepped onto the surface, the chakra stuck to it as well as his shoes. And as he detached, the chakra simply dispersed, leaving nothing holding him there. "Ok, I want each of you to find a tree and try this technique. Each of you, take a kunai, and mark your spots after each run. I want all of you to try and get higher with each attempt. You may want to take a running start at first, and remember, direct chakra into your feet, and concentrated on maintaining that continuous flow." Logan began to practice. He forced chakra into his feet, and ran up the tree, sticking for a bit, before striking the tree with his kunai and jumping down. He continued doing this again and again, until he reached the top of the tree. Then, he jumped down and joined the others, following the teacher back towards the school. The teacher turned to the students and told those whom had excelled to come forward, having done well with multiple jutsu. He stepped forward, somewhere in the middle of the line, and eventually reached the front. He was handed a headband, which he accepted with a bow, before leaving. 4872 SP/chakra Spendable skill points: 72 Henge no Jutsu - 300/300 Bushin no Jutsu - 300/300 Art of Substitution - 400/400 Tree Climbing - 600/600 Water Walking - 600/600 Dummy Fighting- 200/200 Weight Lifting - 300/300 Shuriken/ Kunai Target Practice - 200/200 Weight Running - 300/300 Sparing - 300/300 Meditating - 300/300 Chakra Molding - 500/500 Leaf Concentration - 500/500 ((THREE DAY DOUBLE POWER DAY))

☽...ι ωιℓℓ sнσω ץσυ тяυє ∂αякиєss...☾ Arus grabbed another scroll and smirked. This was the Art of Substitution. His father planned on teaching him this skill before he entered the Academy. Arus had some idea of how the jutsu was supposed to work but he never had the chance to try it out. He studied the scroll to know the aspects of the jutsu that he didn't know. Arus then walked outside where he would have materials to substitute with. He knew this jutsu would take a quick burst of chakra, so he focused on his chakra control. He made a clone and instructed it to throw paper shuriken at him. When the shuriken would connect he would try substituting.
When he first tried, Arus failed and was pegged with shuriken repeatedly. This was getting very frustrating since he was going about the whole thing wrong. 'I have to get this right before I go home. It's so infuriating though. Maybe I missed something in the scroll.'' Arus read the scroll again and noticed a tip that would probably work for him. Deception was the key. His clone through more shuriken, this time Arus was able to dodge some of them, but his substitution was off. His timing was delayed because he was trying to let the shuriken get closer before he would substitute. He kept this up for a while since it seemed he was getting good at it.
Arus tried with another clone, to get more projectiles. He was failing in his timing again. He figured that letting the shuriken get so close would be his downfall, but it was that he wasn't seeing all of the shuriken. He was slowly tiring out, but he wouldn't quit. His determination to become better was his motive since he wanted to be strong for his clan.
Arus began paying closer attention to how many shuriken were thrown. Getting a nice estimate of the projectiles allowed him to get his timing right. Next he practiced letting his clones throw real shuriken at him. They aimed for none vital spots, but Arus had practiced enough to dodge them. He was ultimately satisfied that he was able to learn the jutsu before he tired out since he messed up so much. Out of the jutsu he just learned, he figured that the substitution would be the one he used the most. It seemed to be a way out of various situations. ((402/400 Art of Substitution learned))

Adell Terumi, THE GREATEST NINJA IN THE WORLD, wanna-be...  Adell smiled brightly as he took a deep breathe. Today was the day to prove himself. Sure he had been going to the academy before. Sure he had terrible scores in most areas. Sure he had failed the final exams once before. He wouldn't let any of those things deter him. Though he was terrible in general at the fundamentals, he did quite well in the active sparring. At that, he had hope for the new day. He would prove he could achieve anything he could set his mind to. He would pass the jutsu tests. He would excel, and he would become one of the most splendid ninja. No, he would become the most splendid ninja. He would become the best ninja in his clan, the best in his village, the best in his country, and then, the best in the world. Before him lay the academy. This time, there would be no failure. He entered the academy, and moved towards his classroom. As he entered, he would find several students there already there. In the back, there was a strange kid, half his age, covered in all black, with those weird blue eyes. Adell ignored him for now. He didn't matter, all that mattered was Adell proving himself. He sat near the front. He wanted to show off first. He wanted to prove that he was the best in his class. He wanted, simply, to be the center of attention. He looked around with a confident smile, as the other students arrived. Then the teacher arrived, and as he glanced to Adell, he sighed lightly. It seemed so strange that Adell had anything to smile about. But, regardless, he began his explanation to the students. "The First jutsu we will address is the Transformation jutsu. It is a technique that will allow one to take on the appearance, and, to an extent, physical form and nature of someone or something else. You will be able to look like, and sound like them, if done correctly." Adell sighed. He had seen this several times before. Normally he would just close his eyes, knowing it was below him to have to watch again. However, he had to make sure to make this time count. He watched every action to make sure he didn't miss a moment. The teacher quickly formed a handseal. "Allow me to demonstrate. Now I only need a single seal to preform this technique. Given your inexperience, and the lack of chakra control most of you have, you may need to use several seals." With a burst of smoke, and the teacher now stood in the appearance of the Hokage. With a bright smile, he smoke, with all of the hokage's traits and mannerisms in his voice. "As you see, my disguise is perfect, and, provided I copy the mannerisms and other aspects of the hokage, It would be near impossible to tell the difference while in this state." He heard the awed gasps, and even a few laughs in the room. But he paid them little attention. Finally, the teacher dispelled the jutsu and asked the students to stand and come to try out the jutsu. "Ok, everyone come up, in a single-file line. I want to see what you can do. I need each of you to attempt to take the form of me. Just look at me, and listen to my voice. Imagine me in your mind, gather your chakra and use handseals to shape it. Concentrate and make yourself take on my form." Adell moved ahead of most of the others, smiling as he ended up first. He glanced up with a smile at the teacher. The teacher looked to him skeptically, nodding to him to try the jutsu. He had yet to see him do well in any of the basic jutsus. None-the less, Adell did have a drive. He always held that confident look on his face. is was the case even when it seemed there would be no chance. Adell gathered his hands together and concentrated. He did his best to gather his chakra as he formed a handseal, then another, and another, and two more. He struggled with it, and it seemed it wouldn't even occur like times before. However, with a burst of chakra, and a puff of smoke, it appeared he had transformed into something. The teacher and the class waited for the smoke to clear, knowing what might await them. Even when he had succeeded in transforming, he usually looked far from the person he attempted to become. But, as the smoke dissipated, before them stood a replica of the teacher. At that, it was a good one. It wasn't perfect. However, one would have to look closely to tell the differences. The teacher smiled back to his own smiling form, before nodding. "Good work." He said to Adell, who released the jutsu confidently. He turned to the others and smiled back, raising his hand in a thumbs-up. 2332 SP/chakra Spendable skill points: 22 Henge no Jutsu - 300/300 Bushin no Jutsu - 300/300 Art of Substitution - 400/400 Tree Climbing - 600/600 Water Walking - 600/600 Dummy Fighting- 200/200 Weight Lifting - 0/300 Shuriken/ Kunai Target Practice - 200/200 Weight Running - 0/300 Sparing - 0/300 Meditating - 0/300 Chakra Molding - 0/500 Leaf Concentration - 0/500

▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀ Oasis Zoppaku ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀
"I just want to be someone's first choice...
The dark haired girl was calmly sitting crossed legged in a vacant room, mediating calmly. Her head was up and her eyes closed, consecrating with all her might. Her mind was running blank, as she focused on nothing at all. Her dark red hair was resting over her shoulder and down her back, while her hands rested neatly on her knees. She took steady breaths in and out. She let out a content sigh, as she brought her hands up, making a handsign. She began to center her focus into her hands, focusing her chakra on herself. After a few moments of sitting there and meditating, she could hear a small puff of something behind her. She looked over her head, seeing a few copies of herself, sitting just as she was. They too were meditating. Oasis didn't smile, or hardly acknowledge their existence. She simply turned back to what she was doing. The clones though, were not exact replica of her, and therefore, she had failed yet again. One had black hair, while the other looked more like a boy. She began to center herself yet again. She sighed and sat back while looking at the ceiling. She was not getting this. She looked down at one of the chains attached to her pants, and got an idea. She smirked as she unclipped it and slipped it around her fingers, still in the form of the handsign, and began to filter her chakra in the jutsu. She closed her eyes, and focused on the coldness of the metal against her skin. She quickly grasped what she was doing wrong and corrected it. She hadn't been focusing enough to create an exact image of herself. The young girl was quickly able to concentrate on the chain around her hands, and successfully pull off the substitution jutsu. When she looked back, she could see two mirror images of herself smiling back at her. She raised an eyebrow at them ,before turning back to her meditating. But before long, she grew bored and decided to mold her chakra instead.
She was molding her chakra for the last half hour or so, as she felt her own chakra and felt how it moved and reacted to certain things. She was trying to adapt to it, and make it part of her. The young Zappaku was breathing properly, and held the same position for a long while, and soon she became stiff. She stretched upward and began to sit up. The room had been quiet for quit some time. She looked at the door, before deciding to go for some exercise. She walked to the door, before she slid it open, she heard someone on the other side of the door. Just as whoever was on the other side of the door, she quickly made a handsign and used the transformation jutsu to transform into a dumbbell right in front of the door. The person slid open the door, and without looking down, tripped over the piece of exercise equipment on the ground. The man who had tripped looked down at the dumbbell, and groaned. He picked up the heavy thing of metal and began to carry it to the weight lifting room. Oasis was relieved when they stopped in the exercise room, and she was finally put down. Once the man had left, she quickly undid the jutsu. Taking form of different objects was Oasis's specialty. She looked around the room, before calmly walking to a rack with a variety of bumbbells were resting. She picked one up and began to exercise herself physically. She lifted it higher, above her head, and almost dropped it. The handle was a bit big for her small hands and fingers. She continued to lift it, until someone else entered the room.
"Oasis. How did you get in here?" The man from before asked. Oasis didn't look up from her weight lifting. She did have a rather small frame, but she could still be strong when it some to it.
"You brought me here, actually." Oasis said with little emotion.
Oasis left the man looking oddly confused and somewhat frustrated with her lack of explanation. She was now sitting down and was securing a few weights to her feet. She was going to head out to the track, to do some running, when the man stopped her.
"What do you mean?" He asked her. She looked up at him, her neon purple eyes boring into his. She didn't show her emotion to anyone she ether didn't like or didn't feel compelled to show. She looked side ways to him, not giving him her full attention. She wanted to get back to her solo training, so she could quickly graduate and get it over with.
"That dumbbell you tripped over, was me. You Dumbbell." She had made a small pun, but didn't laugh at it. She walked to the track in the back of the fairly lit academy. She sighed when she was at the starting line, then began to run laps around the track, as it was harder to run with the weights on, but soon she could feel herself getting use to it.
After an hour or so of continuous running, she had grew tired and decided she needed a rest. She sat next to a shadowy tree and sat against the truck. She huffed and panted from the exercise, but quickly gained back her breath. She layed over on the grass and sighed when her body could rest without restraint. She closed her eyes as she placed a piece of grass on her forehead. She began to hone her concentration yet again. The grass served as a good center piece. She sighed when she was running blank thoughts, and everything was quiet. She focused on nothing more than the blade of grass that was settled nicely on her forehead.
After a long while, The young Zappaku was fully rested and up for another round of training. She went around the front of the academy, and found a bunch of targets were set up from previous people's use. She smirked and took out a few kunai from her holster. She created two clones that would hide in the shadows and attack her when she least expected it. She nodded and the two clones vanished. The girl looked at the ten target that was scattered around the clearing and grabbed four kunais in each hand, placed them between her fingers. She focused on the targets, but kept tabs on her clones. The young girl opened her eyes and threw one kunai, before twisting her hand, and threw the last three, each hitting the targets. She jumped in the air, and flipped over, throwing the other four kunai, also hitting the targets. She pulled out two more kunais, before impaling them into the center of the last two targets. As she was about to land on the ground, eight kunais began to fly at her, four from each side. She twisted her body around, trying to evade it, but made handsigns as well. Once the kunais were firmly in her sides, she disappeared in a puff of smoke. She appeared behind one of her clones, before 'returning' the four kunai. She jumped down from the tree to be greeted by her other clone, who poofed away.
The girl was cleaning up the targets and putting them away, as well as sharpening the kunai she had dulled with training. Oasis looked back at the tree of where she had technically 'stabbed' herself. She knew one of the things that was required of her was to be able to walk on the bark of trees, or on the surface of the water. She knew there was no avoiding it. She had finish with her quick clean up job, and had finish sharpening her kunai. She looked up at the tree, pouting as it loomed down at her, teasing her slightly. She took a few paces away from it, then quickly began running towards it. She began to focus as much chakra as she could to the bottoms of her feet. Oasis jumped up as high as she could, and her foot made contact with the bark. The bark began to break under her chakra, and she pulled away. She tried again, but with less chakra and more focus. But she slipped and fell to the ground. She frowned at her failures, and she took another running start at it. She landed on the tree, and began to run up the tree. She closed her eyes to concentrate on the feel of the bark, trying to guess how much chakra she would need. She began to feel the bark and how it reacted to the certain amount of chakra she filtered around her feet. She began to grasp the concept of it, and began to stabilize her chakra. Soon, she was flying off the top of the tree. With a scream, she began to fall towards the ground. She screeched as she reach outwards to grab a branch. Her hand was able to snag one and soon she dangled mere inches off the ground. With a sigh of relief, she dropped down onto the ground, with a smirk on her face. She had successfully pulled it off, and she was able to do in less than four hours! This made her in a slight happier mood. And now for the hard part, walking on water. Oh how much fun this will be...
Oasis had traveled a little ways away, to a small pond near the forest by the academy, and began to watch the water's surface waver and change with every wind blown, every movement made. She couldn't help but stand and stare. The village was dark, but the it was still visible to anyone who had lived in the village or had seen it before. The dark pond was clear water, but because the village was so dark, the bottom of the pond can't be seen. Oasis stood at the edge of the bank, the water genitally splashing at her feet. She began to walk onto the surface of the water, much like the tree climbing justsu. But her foot sank right through the surface of the water. Something wasn't right and Oasis could feel it. She began to eye her foot that hung just over the surface of the water, and pretty soon, she began to formulate reasons why this would happen. She began to eliminate possibilities in her head. She soon came up with one possibility, no enough chakra. She began to pump a little bit more chakra into her foot, but that only made her slip and almost fall into the pond. She quickly regained her balance and stared at the water. She sighed and her shoulder sagged a bit. Oasis looked at the trees, which their leaves swayed in the wind. Then she looked down at the water. The water was moving all around, never stopping in one state for more than a fraction of a second. She smirked as she had just figured out how to walk on the surface of the water. She began to center herself, closing her eyes and relaxing her body, and forced her chakra into the bottoms of her feet. She began to picture what a leaf would feel like on the top of the water, swaying back and forth. She began to picture herself doing the same, and took the first step out onto the water. She didn't allow herself to take a step back and chicken out of the training, and nether did she open her eyes. She could see the moving surface under her, and she smell the sent of it. She was walking for quit some time, and soon she opened her eyes, to see she was indeed on top of the water, swaying at it swayed and looped around as it twirled. Her eyes widened when she realized she had done it, and she was walking on water! Just like Jesus! She began to twist and turn with the wind, and have fun while dancing on the surface of the water. She was happy with her success today, or night, and was happily enjoying the feeling. She could feel her chakra levels dropping so she began for the bank. Once she was there, she went back to the academy and went for the dummy supply they had. She faced one, before making a few hits towards it. Oasis began to try different blows and taijutsu moves, but the dummy only stood there and took them. It would have been better if they could fight back. She began to think about having a sparing partner, but those were hard to find in places like this. She huffed and panted as she stood away from the dummy, and wiped a bead of sweat off her forehead.
"That's it. I'm done for today." She said as she grabbed her things and began to put the dummies away. She was just closing the door to the storage room, when the man from before came up behind her. She whirled around and came face to face with him. He smirked at her, and smiled at her.
"Oasis Zappaku. You've been working hard today." He said in a casual tone. The young girl looked at him in surprise.
"You'd been watching me this whole time?" She asked in mild surprise. The man simply nodded his head and gestured towards a door, leaving outside.
"It's about time you graduated, you know. I'm sure you'll do fine." He reassured her. She wasn't one to be over confident, but she didn't doubt her abilities ether. She nodded and began to head for home.
...Just once..."

Adell Terumi, THE GREATEST NINJA IN THE WORLD, wanna-be... Adell quickly turned and went back to his seat. He sat down, watching as the others went at it. One after another, the students stepped forward. They each did their best to use the jutsu. Most didn't do very well. Some couldn't even get anything to happen. Others, after a blast of smoke, didn't change. Some managed to change, but took on a rather ineffective form of him. Some were deformed, some too short, some too wide. A few though, did pretty well. They took on near perfect forms of him. A few among the few were perfect, and even managed to replicate his voice. The teacher smiled out to his students, particularly those who did well, watching as they went back. Adell stretched for a moment, and prepared as everyone finished and the teacher began to explain the next jutsu they would do. "The next technique we will go over it known as the Clone technique. It is, for all means a purposes, a genjutsu. It produces illusionary clones of oneself. They have no real ability to affect the physical world, but they took and sound as if they are real. They make for an excellent distraction and can be used for effective misdirection. It can even be combined with the transformation technique for more effectiveness." He stepped forward, raised his hand in a seal, and seemingly out from his body three other bodies appeared. They appeared, for all means and purposes to be him. They all spoke in unison. "As you can see, it's nearly impossible to tell the difference without paying close attention to paticular things. These clones even cast false shadows. Of course, they can't fake certain things, like the bending of grass, and they can't apply weight to any object. So keep that in mind using them and when dealing with opponents who use them. Now as before, everyone come forward." Adell wasn't surprised as he had formed the clones. He had seen it times before. He had attempted it several times as well. He had never really succeeded in it. As with the transformation jutsu, he had yet to pass with it. He got to his feet and quickly moved forward. Adell approached the teacher. He held a smile over his face taking a moment to breathe. The teacher pushed him. "Go on." He nodded forming four handseals. He concentrated driving his chakra through and out from himself. It took a full minute, but out from him stepped two clones. They looked like him quite well. This close up, they weren't perfectly detailed, but they were well enough the pass. "You couldn't have doubted me there, could you?" The teacher took a moment chuckle. Meanwhile Adell, smiling, dispelled the jutsu. He turned to go back to his seat. 2798 SP/chakra Spendable skill points: 186 Henge no Jutsu - 300/300 Bushin no Jutsu - 300/300 Art of Substitution - 400/400 Tree Climbing - 600/600 Water Walking - 600/600 Dummy Fighting- 200/200 Weight Lifting - 300/300 Shuriken/ Kunai Target Practice - 200/200 Weight Running - 0/300 Sparing - 0/300 Meditating - 0/300 Chakra Molding - 0/500 Leaf Concentration - 0/500
