"No matter how small my steps are, they will eventually add up. Even if I didn't win today, the step I take now will take shape one or two months from now." Main Theme Song of Mitsutada Gūru
Mitsu had left the Hokage's Office in the hopes of finding that one special lady that left him alone in that cold dark office. Despite most males probably giving said person room to breath and think about it so that they may came around, Mitsu wanted to take a more headstrong approach and be more assertive about it, no passive. If he had heard correctly, she asked Yumi to teach her a bit and thus, the best place to do that would be none other than the Forest of Strength. With a hand on the hilt of Sekai, the sword sparked up a conversation with Mitsu inside of his thoughts, asking him about why he was so fixated on this woman and things of such in which the Sannin replied to the best of his abilities without saying the word love, for he had never felt love before so he didn't know what it felt like, and thus didn't want to use it improperly, but little did he know, he was in love. Walking the several paths throughout the training grounds he had managed to find the whereabouts of the Hokage and the woman he was in pursuit of, however when he arrived it seemed they were busy training, and knowing how important it was to do so, he decided it best not to interrupt. Mitsu started to hum a song to himself as he leaned up against a tree and watched from afar, evaluating the both of them. "--" --

Magnus needed a sturdier practice dummy, the one he was using was starting to fall apart, Literally. He observed the dummy as its head fell off. "Maybe, I went alittle over board." He said as he looked around and very chalantly whistled off into the woods and then back to his tree. "Now for the next stage." He reviewed over the next segment of his training, Stage 2: Speed, this one was focused around increaing the speed of his punches to make him move faster, but he needed weights....He would have to buy some. [1/5]
Magnus returned to the training grounds with several weights each about 50lbs: two wrist, two ankle and a torso casing of weights all weighing 50lbs each for a full set. He doned the wrist weights first for this part of training. He begun his full on training with a couple of jabs and wild uncontrolled hooks towards an adjacent tree to the one he placed the scroll upon. He was focusing first on his breathing rythmes before moving on to other parts of this training. The build up and the release had to flow in time with his wind-up and outwards punches. [2/5]
Magnus slowed down into quick straight forward snapping motions after focus on his breathing. He exhaled quick breaths as he punched outwards and inhaled as he drew back pacing himself. He mixed in some one-two combos as well as a few haymakers building and getting use to the flow of his body with its new found gravity to them. [3/5]
He continued to punch, slowly building in speed until he was punching at a steady pace. The swinging of his arm getting use to the feel of the weights until they were barely noticable. It was getting late as the moon was now high in the sky. It was midnight or almost close to it as it appeared to be. Magnus felt stronger now as most Nara did doing this time of day. Magnus understood why that was as his father use to explain countless times about their family and their ability to manipulate Yin Release jutsus which was the root production of their Yami jutsu. A gift from their great master Rikudou since the begining of the Ninja era. The speed in his punches and breathing increased steadly till he reached a point of rapid punches. [4/5]
Magnus continued and noted the max speed had been reached for his punches, combos, and reaction speeds which was already top notched. He stopped and took a break and looked around at everyone else in the training grounds. It was midnight, but it didn't seem to bother them as it seem normal to be training day in and day out. [5/5] Stage 2: The Basics: Speed Learned
Yumi... admittedly never knew of her promotion. It seems like some magical twinkle fairy fluttered about the village collecting funds from others, in which in return, she would bestow them rank. There were requests but until they completed missions, he wasn't quite sure he felt like promoting so swiftly. For how can anyone, think that one mission, can completely relate to them being promoted? Back in the times when his father was alive, people had to complete numerous missions before gaining even the thought of a promotion. In any case, truth be told, his words were more so something to be said as a jest. A tease of words said between teacher and student who still believed her to be a Chuunin. Unfortunately it backfired and Yumi's thoughts of Udon noodles, Dim sum, and Caribbean jerk chicken with the side of green tea seemed to be postponed.
When she made a move, Yumi noticed a difference in strength of the jutsu. utilized against him It was not coming from that of a Chuunin. "So she's grown." Yumi thought with a smirk, "Though she is still like a teen..." Yumi thought in a parental manner as he continued to focus chakra throughout his body in addition to two specific points. She wanted him to fight seriously... he would... but with a very light touch. Very few have seen Yumi actually fight seriously and he rather keep it that way. That side of himself is best left to the cold bodies he created.
As Shikayumi started her attack that would seemingly go through without a hitch, Yumi released the powers that he had been storing. First was the opening of two gates; the Gate of Opening and the Gate of Healing. Simultaneously he also activated his lightening armor. Extent of these two power sources would clash as they gave Yumi power. Strength to be given in time to make control over Yumi significantly hard to do. With his base strength already stronger than most it would then increase moderately to put further strain on her ability to keep him in her hold The lightening armor, would mostly further give his muscles just that boost of strength for at least his arms to come together for one technique to bring this to some kind of conclusion. "Katon...Fukumen no Jutsu..." Yumi said within his mind as he calmly closed his eyes and his palms clasping together creating a blinding light to sweep through the radius of the area they trained in. Yumi would suspect given the fact that he was utilizing brute strength to fight against the mimicry would throw her off. Or at least force the need to compensate by staying still in which Yumi would proceed to add more and more strength to surge through him. Additionally with the utilization of a simple yet effective technique in attempt to blind her, would hopefully remove her vision temporarily as well as remove the shadow connecting the two. The blinding effect would not last as long as the pain of having the eyes flashed but it would be enough for Yumi to make his move.
If she were to see Yumi or begin to open her eyes if she had some reason to believe out of all the jutsu's he had and miraculously knew he had that jutsu in his possession to even perform, the blurred image of Yumi would be all she'd see before he'd disappear. Leaving a crater behind where the massive man used to be to give her nothing but the silence of what was to come or what he had planned. Despite how serious she wanted him to fight... he just couldn't bring himself to attack her like he would an enemy. And so he picked the lesser of the techniques... One that has been passed down from sensei to sensei in Kononha.
Appearing behind Shikayumi, having utilized the Konoha Kage Buyou technique, he would clench his fist and with his halved full strength pumping through that massive bicep, Yumi promptly threw a wicked upper-cut straight for "Narnia" ( Le derriere XD ). Should his fist connect, Yumi would follow through, keeping the fist connected as he'd explode up with his legs and twist with his hips in an attempt to comedically toss his student several yards, "Donkey punch..." Yumi said softly, despite having made a more humorous modified version of the ever fabled technique "Thousand Years of Pain". He would although breath a bit hard from his nostrils and crack his neck a bit as the utilization of the techniques he used to break free weren't mean to be fused in that manner. It definitely effected him a bit but thankfully given his dedication to the art of hand-to-hand combat he did not face too bad of repercussions. "I apologize for... making it seem like you are lesser than what you are." Yumi would speak should everything go as planned and they've created distance; or rather Yumi launched his student to gain distance. "If anything... you will soon be a peer rather than a student."
(( Keep forgetting people can just buy promotions now >.< ))

Duddudduudsududududududududududdududu.. Mitsu was just going hard in the humming of his upbeat, dancy type of rave song that he was sure everyone knew and loved. With flashing strobe lights going off in his head he zoned out of watching the two spar for a moment until Yumi's flash attack drew his attention back to reality and his humming slowed to a stop. "Tch.." The young Sannin glared upwards diagonally a moment before shaking his head and closing his eyes to push the negative thoughts out of his mind. Releasing a sigh as if to vent out his anger he opened his eyes to see Yumi begin to fade away before seemingly materializing behind Shikayumi poised to attack. At that moment Mitsu flared chakra through his legs as he kicked off from his perch against the tree and he vanish from sight only to appear between the two of them nigh instantly with an arm around the female Nara before turning on his heel and raising his hand in time to catch the attack that would of pummeled the poor girl's rear end. With three clicks of his tongue and a quick shake of his head Mitsu's voice carried that of a teasing tone, "Why so frisky Sensei~? Did you really want a squeeze that bad? How shameful!" Mitsutada let out a chuckle which further indicated he was joking with his male companion. Releasing the Hokage's fist he gave a slight bow before apologizing for interrupting, arm still around Shikayumi.. Boy, it seemed he love to break that no touch rule eh?

The girls shadow drew in closer, and closer, as her Sensei exploded with raw power. "Is this the hidden power of the inner gates?" She questioned, having only read of their wonders. Just moments before reconnecting her shadow, Yumi triggered a jutsu that was equivalent to a wide scale flash bomb. The light was so great that her shadow was pushed back to her body like wildfire. To make matters worse, with her concentration on Yumi, Shikayumi was looking straight into the ball of light when he activated it. She could feel the light overstimulate her retinas as it forced her to cringe in blindness.
It felt like such a dirty trick, but she couldn't say that for her sensei to hear; that would just be another excuse as to why she was caught unaware. She knew that her sensei would be quick to gain control of this battle as she tried to force herself to open her eyes. It was no good, everything melted together like watercolors; she couldn't recover fast enough.
Every part of her felt that this was end game; she lost and now she would have to deal with it. However, she didn't imagine her endgame being a single arm wrapping her into a close embrace. She could hear the voice of someone, but until she regained her sight she would be in the dark as to who it was. "Uh, Sensei?" She asked Mitsutada.
[ I thought she got promoted after the battle w/ Elizabeth at the gates. Could've swore I read that somewhere. If not we'll disregard the whole Jonin thing and say she was being relentless. ]
If Yumi was truly trying to hurt his student the power backed into the strike would be significantly more lethal. The strength he in fact had packed behind his strike, was just enough to hoist her up and sending her flying a couple of feet. It was probably this that allowed Mitsu to take hold of Yumi's strike without finding a break in his hands; specifically after mastering his own personal style Boxing.
Standing up straight and letting his hands fall to his side, Yumi merely smirked in response to Mitsu's comment. Like any sensei, or proper sensei, their students were like children. They see them grow. Mature. And even surpass them to bring light to a new future. There was nothing but a paternal relationship if anything. But Yumi's smirk was truly to the situation that was now in place. The very people, or in this case person, that was being spoken about was right next to her. "Shikayumi... I think it is time for you to employ what we spoke about, yes?" Yumi said softly as he took a step back and began to depart... still smirking, "I'll treat you to a meal next time... I am sure there will be an update in order." He said with a lofty wave of his hand as he began walking away before once more disappearing from the spot but this time to depart.

Shikayumi listened to her teacher, but couldn't quite understand what he was talking about. He talked to her like she was leaving, but she was clearly holding onto her, right? She glanced around as her blurry vision began to regain focus. As everything took shape she saw that it was Mitsutada that was holding onto her, not her teacher.
Now, there were a few things wrong with this picture: One, Shikayumi didn;t really know how to express gratitude, or affection; and two, Mitsutada was breaking the cardinal rule. Not knowing what to do, she pushed herself away from Mitsutada's grasp. "What are you doing getting so close to me like that? You know how I feel about you touching me!?" She crossed her arms as she scowled her comrade. However, Mitsutada may have noticed that she did not try to strike him physically, which would be a huge improvement.
There was a short silence as she thought about what Yumi had said to her, and after much deliberation, she decided to put forth what they had talked about. "Hey, listen. I wanted to talk about the way I acted back at the office." She really hated apologies as she tried her best to muscle it out. "I may have been a tad hasty in my judgement about you pretending to be someone else. It was unfair of me to judge you like that, and I guess what I'm trying to say is..." She murmured out the last bit under her breath. "I'm sorry."
"No matter how small my steps are, they will eventually add up. Even if I didn't win today, the step I take now will take shape one or two months from now." Main Theme Song of Mitsutada Gūru
Mitsu watched Yumi for any signs of retaliation or a surprise attack as payback for interfering with their training but it seemed to be that he would get nothing of the sort, thankfully. At the Uchiha's mention of employing something they spoke about Mitsu's eyes glanced down at the still blinded Shikayumi for a moment as his thoughts drifted off to ponder on what he could of meant by that. Mitsu didn't come back to reality until his friend began to leave in which he wished him farewell for now. Once Yumi was out of visual range the Sannin shook his hand that had caught the blow because it was stinging, and he didn't have to try and act tough anymore. Once the stinging in his hand started to subside Mitsutada pulled Shikayumi closer against him in a tighter embrace, wrapping his other arm around her frame as well before resting his face against the top of her head. "I'm not your sensei, no.. Knight in shinning armor more like it though, at-least that's what I would like to think.." He chuckled at his own comment and sighed. Although he knew she was going to react rashly once she found out it was him, he wished that she would stay in his arms like this for a little while longer. "I'm sorry.."
Of course, that was how he would of liked it to go, but since Shikayumi posted before he could finish his acted before he could, his dream was for naught. Before he could pull her into a tighter embrace, it seemed she regained her vision because she almost instantly shoved herself away from him and began to scold him for touching her which made him feel a bit more at ease since he got a normal reaction out of her, but nonetheless, it still caused his cheeks to change a few shades to a light pink as he glanced to the side. Mitsutada would listen to her go on and apologize for her actions from earlier and it only made him shake his head slowly. "It's fine.. The way you reacted is justifiable.. I also would like to apologize for hiding it from you because it pained me to do so. I didn't and still do not want to hide anything from you. I only did so before because my life was on the line.. It's not that I didn't trust you, it's just if I tried to say anything, I would of broken a seal and it would of well, ended me."
Mitsu turned his gaze back to her fully and his cheeks darkened a bit more as he started to speak again, "However, I will accept your apology if you give me something in return.... It's simple really.. What I want is just a.. a.." The blue haired male raised a hand to his face and scratched at his cheek as he fumbled his words from lack of confidence. Shaking his head to himself he let out a faint sigh before looking back to Shikayumi with a more self determined gaze, "I just want a kiss from the girl I love.."

Shikayumi was caught by surprise by his request. True, he had been her knight in shining armor, but she still felt like she hardly knew who Mitsutada was. As she contemplated whether, or not to kiss him she noticed that he was really protecting that hand of his; it must of been the one he used to block Yumi. "Your hand must be sore...here let me see it." She would delay the kiss for the time being as reached out for his hand, placing it in hers as she would heal it.
As she was healing his hand, Mitsutada may have noticed the the redness of her left arm; it was the one Yumi placed in an arm lock. "So, Mitsu, why did you have to hide your identity?" It was going to take a little while to patch up his hand as she decided to learn more about the real Mitsutada.
"No matter how small my steps are, they will eventually add up. Even if I didn't win today, the step I take now will take shape one or two months from now." Main Theme Song of Mitsutada Gūru
At the mentioning of his hand being sore it caused his gaze to trail down to look at it as he balled it into a fist and released it a few times to stretch the muscles in it and get the blood pumping. Yeah.. it was still sore. "Ah yes, thank you.." he mumbled as he held out his hand for her so she could cast her fancy healing magic. As she took his hand in hers the male's icy blue orbs had caught a color difference between her arms and when he paid closer attention it was obvious that her left arm was red. Ah, the perils of training. It seems that Yumi most of had her in a hold of some sort before Mitsu arrived, and despite him knowing that it was just training and things of the sort happen, something in his chest disagreed with the fact that it should be normal, and essentially he felt hurt for her having gotten hurt.
"Hn..? Ohh.. It was because I was careless. I was sent on a mission to investigate a supposed research lab and since it looked abandoned I let my guard down. Rookie mistake. Needless to say I got jumped by the head researcher there and he placed me under a seal to restrict what I could and couldn't say. At the same time however, he injected me with this drug that plays against the rules of this world. To say the least, it changed my genetic makeup for awhile and I had somehow came across the powers of being a Kaguya, although temporary. That was.. a few years ago now." Mitsutada cleared his throat and glanced off to the side watching two taijutsu users train in the far off distance. "So, since I was completely changed essentially, I decided to change my name and appearance for the remainder of the drug so I could do some undercover work within Konoha to try and weed out anyone who wasn't loyal to our cause. Luckily, I didn't find anyone. So yeah.. that's where we are now.." The Sannin let out a sigh and turned back to Shikayumi. "Anything else you desire to know?" Mitsu refrained himself from teasing her by calling her his love.

Next up for young Yuurei was the Wind Release skills to be learned. Starting at the beginning, he then broke out his scrollings...
Creating chakra from his reserves he then began to mold it in much the same way as he did before. Now he then imagined a copy of himself appearing from the winds to his left. Breathing out he felt the chakra creation take shape. [1/1 Kaze bunshin learned]
Bracing himself for the next trick came the Wind Levitation skill. Not much by itself, but dispersing his clone with a wave he recovered some of that and after locating a nearby rock rocused his energies. A brief gust of wind surrounded the rock and almost imperceptibly the rock began levitating. [1/1 wingardium leviosa learned]
Next came the Projectile Control Skill allowing him to move a thrown weapon a bit more accurately. This was useful for making the usual pesky shurikens almost deadly. Altering their course though was easy to understand with nature transformation. [1/1 Projectile Control Skill learned]
Now was the fun part though. He concentrated and was rewarded with a new breeze blowing towards him. Useful for trying to retrieve shuriken thrown about as a result of the battle. For the sake of the lesson though this time it was just leaves. [1/1 Retrieving Wind Technique]
Shikayumi listened closely to his words. She was still on the edge about believing him, but everything about his voice said that he was telling the truth. The glow of her hands begin to fade away as she finished healing his hand. Reaching into one of her holsters she pulled out a roll of medical tape and began to wrap his hand.
She kept a close eye on her work as she heard Mitsu ask about her interests in him. She did have one more serious question for him. "Tell me more about Shirota." A rather serious question; she wanted to know more about her enemy. She was definitely a member of the Nara clan as she was constantly trying to gain knowledge to use as power.
Magnus decided to take a break that turned into a little nap and awoke in the morning by the shining of the light of high noon. He looked around his little secluded training area and up above him to the training scroll he was working on last night. He looked over the third stage and was going to be in need of a partner. He pulled the kunai from the tree and placed it and the scroll in his ninja pouch. He then looked onto the tree, the little mark left a notch carved out in the tree seeping with the life sap of the large plant before him. Magnus sigh'd as he placed his hand upon the tree, immediately the tree begun to deteriorate beneath his touch. Soon stood just a withered husk of what was once there. He turned and begun to depart from the Training grounds. 'I wonder if my cousin is avaliable. I hear she just became a jounin....still can't keep up with me though.' He snickered as he thought to himself and continued onwards.
"No matter how small my steps are, they will eventually add up. Even if I didn't win today, the step I take now will take shape one or two months from now." Main Theme Song of Mitsutada Gūru
As the young lady began to wrap up his hand she asked about Shirota and what had happened there which had caused him to let out a sigh. He was still unsure if he was able to tell the full record of what had happened. Glancing around to make sure it was safe and that they were alone and couldn't be eavesdropped on, he began his tale of what had happened while making sure to constantly check his surroundings. "Shirota.. that place.. Well, it started off as a regular recon and snatch 'n grab if possible. We hastily formed a what was it.. nine man team, composed of mostly Konoha shinobi, but there was a Kiri shinobi with us and a rouge Kiri shinobi as well. The trip there was mostly fine aside from a few bandit attacks, but they were more than easily repelled. Upon arriving at our destination, a shrine atop a mountain that overlooked the sea resort it became apparent the place was wiped, not a single person could be seen, even by our byakugan wielders. From there we broke into three smaller teams, a direct recon team and two support teams. Once the main force infiltrated the resort we got ambushed by these.. shadowy masses which seemed to be able to manipulate bloodlines, because the support team one ran into a clay hands user and my group faced off a sharingan user, and those eyes evolved through all the stages up to Rinnegan right before my very eyes. We engaged in combat from there of course, and despite the main force having a Kage ranked shinobi with them, two of them still got captured. Support Team One managed to hold out from what I could hear, although barely. And Support Team Two, my team, would of practically eliminated our threat in two hits if not for their weird super regeneration capabilities." From there he went into the minor details about what happened after that and eventually ended his tale, placing his hands in his kimono as he awaited her response.

Passives • [ｂｏｘｉｎｇ//ｓｔｙｌｅ] You can predict peoples movements to an extent [better than a normal person, but worse than someone with Sharingan]. • [Shigure Souen] Shinjikazu - After being trained in both defense and attack the user eyes have become more prone to oncoming attacks and is able to react much quicker giving him insight in battle. He is also able to since someone killer intent and feel the force coming from it. • [Passively Honored] Samurai untapped power is passive. • [CQC Master] Close combat is your everything, you are a master within these specifications. • [Muscle Reaction Expert] Your perception rivals the Sharingan, without the neat tricks. • [Poisonous to the Bone] Immune to poison. • [Deadly Touch] Adaptable Poison runs through the blade of your sword. • [Occupied Hands] Your bloodline techniques don't require handseals. • [CLASS] This is because their training releases a constant field of chakra around their body to where they literally witness time at a slower pace. Samurai can see the enemy's physical attacks in slow motion, because the range of this ability expands just far enough to where they can predict these close-range attacks. Because of this, they will never falter in physical combat. They simply do not make mistakes. They can parry pretty much everything. Your super bursts of speed mean nothing to them. They cannot be defeated by stats, because they are the most skilled. Samurai are essentially the counter class to other physical classes. Other physical classes are left almost useless versus them. • [CLASS] Samurai can use low level techniques (genin and academy) with one hand so that they don't have to weaken their hold of their weapon while they perform jutsu.
Shikayumi tightened up the bandages around his hand. "There all better." She replied in a bubbly fashion as if the whole Shirota thing didn't phase her. Holding onto his hand she looked up at him with her baby blue eyes. "I don't know if I can believe what you're saying..." In a swift motion she stood up on her toes to give him a light kiss on the cheek. "But I can tell you're trying." She said with a smile. Leaving it at that she tugged on Mitsu's hand as she started walking towards the ramen bar. Starting from scratch there was much to talk about.
