Welcome to Gaia! ::

After Kronan's charka surrounded the around of the tree, he slowly focused his chakra into a outward push. Making sure he didnt perform a large Earth bArrier Raging Wave, Kronan pushed the chakra out of the ground slowly. As Kronan pushed his chakra slowly out of the ground, large pieces of earth began to rise upward in the area around the tree. Dust rolled off of the pieces of earth as they contiued to move upward. In five minutes, the pieces of earth were up about a foot in the area around the tree.

"He's doing it but next time he has to do it faster..." Jiroubou said to himself as atched the large pieces of earth continue to rise up. Kronan opened his eyes and gritted his teeth as he continued to lace the pieces of earth around the tree with his chakra and push them upward. In ten minutes the rocks were up at the halfway point. Kronan stopped and took his hands off of the ground.

"Whoa..I have to take a break." Kronan said sitting down on the ground."Thats a lot of chakra to build and move those peices of earth." Kronan said to Jiroubou looking at the half built dome that was around the tree.

"Yes I know. But once you use it on your opponent, you can suck their chakra and get recharged." Jioubou stated also looking at the half built dome.

When Kronan got to the dome, he placed his palms against it.

"Good. Now feed your chakra into it. By doing this, you wil be able to repair any damage created by those trying to escape on the inside. Jiroubou stated as he watched Kronan. Kronan nodded and began slowly expelling chakra into the large dome. He closed his eyes as he continued to push his chakra through-out the dome. Jiroubou walked over to the dome and began striking it rapidly. After a hwile he stopped and walked backwarda a few steps. As Kronan's chakra passed over the dents Jiroubou made in the dent, it repaired them and returned the dome back to it's original state. Kronan opened his eyes whitnessing the repairing first hand.

"Whoa...it really works." Kronan whispered as he continued to feed his chakra into the large dome.

"Ok, thats enough of step two. Your done with steps one and two." Jiroubou said as Kronan took his hands away from the dome.

"Ok, now whats next?" Kronan asked as he stared at the largedome, wondering what will be the next step.

"Kronan, our time together is finally up." Jiroubou said with a smirk as he stared down at Kronan.

"So I guess that means..." Kronan said before Jiroubou interupted him.

"Yes, you did it." Jiroubou said punching Kronan in the shoulder."I'll see you sometime in the future." Jiroubou said tunring around as he began walking away.

"Hey!" Kronan yelled as Jiroubou stopped and turned around.

"What?" Jiroubou asked looking over his shoulder at Kronan.

"Thanks..." Kronan said waving his hand over toward Jiroubou.

"Heh...dont mention it." Jiroubou said as he tunred around again a faded into the distance.

"Well I guess it's back to Konoha for me." Kronan said to himself as he turned around and head back to the docking station to catch a boat back to Konoha.

Raja walked the long distacne from the boat dock to the village, she walked silently down the steps into the dark caves they called the Sound Village. She went to her room and set her bag down and then began to walk the halls. She walked till she came to the medical ward. She pushed open the door and looked in. He was sitting reading something as usual.

"I'm back." she said her monotona voice matching the dark room.

Kabuto turned around and gave a half smile.
"Welcome back Kuniochi Raja."

She walked more into the room and sat down on a stool.
"Anything happen while I was away?" she asked still flat toned.

"Not really." Kabuto went back to his book.

She leaned her head on the back of the stool and staird at the ceiling.

"You should probably go and talk to Kidomaru and start your next set of training." Kabuto pushed up his glasses.

"I guess..." Kidomaru wasn't a bad teacher, he just wasn't one of the people Raja liked to be around most.

Raja walked the quiet streets of the small village. She watched the people going about their day, the people who bowed to Orochimaru as their savior, for it was he who saved them from their demise at the hands of the Tea country. Sometimes Raja wondered, could the sound village be the ultimate demise of these people? She entered a small complex that was the apartments to the lower ranked Shinobi of the village, she kept to herself as she passes a genin group passing int he halls. The girl who was known to be very vain sneered at her as she passed. Raja took no notice and continued past. She opened the door to her room and walked in, the room was small, and very simple. A bes laid under the window with a few scattered objects on the headbaord, mainly trap accesories and such. In the window glistening was a large spider web, and sitting off to one side was a fairly large black widow spider. The spider upon the dor closing scuttled to the center of the web as if to greet Raja home. Raja walked over and sat down on the bed and lifted her hand to the web, the spider, not much bigger than her thumb crawled onto the palm of her hand.

"I'm home mother." she just staired for a while at the spider, the spider then bit her, Raja didn't even cringe, she was used to it, and was even immune to this particular type of venom. She lifted her hand up and the spider crawled back onto its web. Raja brought her hand to her mouth and sucked on the small wound as she stood up and walked to what appeared to be a very small kitchen.

Kama arived where he needed to be quickly the small lizard holding on for dear life when the man he had searched out looked up he was slightly startled, it was not every day that a man wearing an imense straw hat and a long coat disturblingly similar to those of the akatsuki members, but on more careful review he could sense the slight aura around him and he knew him for what he was. kabuto straightened up adjusting his glasses slightly. "isn't it kinda dangerous for someone such as you? are you trying to start some orginization of your own?" "yes it is probably not a good idea to wear this much more considering my next teacher, by the way i have come here for you to teach me of your healing no jutsu. as in a afterthought he added "hmmmm....maybe an orginization of my own wouldn't be so bad" he laughed to himself. "fine then follow me...." they left and once they arrived at the training ground kabuto handed him a kunai "Now cut me..." kama juststared at the kunai in his hand then shrugged throwing a blow at kabuto's face with the kunai clutched in his hand.

"Hmmm it seems you need some motivation." Kabuto showed amazing speed taking the kunai from kama's hand then droping down to stab kama in the calf. "why the hell did you do that as his body colasped under him bringing him to a sitting position."You needed motivation and a wound to practice on and you neeed your upper body to do this so it hit you in he lower body" kama nodded now he understood the pain was minimal so he sat there and went through the handseals again this time producing a brief flicker of green chakra around his hand. aparently the motivation was a good one......

hmmmmmm.... kama wigled his toes just to make sure they still worked and indeed they did. He was quickly running out of time and patience with this jutsu his hands came together forming the seals and then he felt the chakra flow straight down his arm and into his hand it now glowed a bright fiery green it was asickly green though it wavered slightly "good but you still need more power your not going to be able to heal anything with this.' motioning to kamas glowing hand.
