Kumo blinked. "Kakashi...?" he said in a quiestionable tone, but nodded. "Alright...And thanks, Im sure we'll meet again soon!" he called after the girl, waving before turning as well. Hatake Kakashi, another person to add to his list of people to seek out, he already had a pair of people on his mind to check up with. Jiraiya and Tsunade, the remaining pair of the legendary Sennin.

Kumo sighed as he wandered down the streets of Konoha, eventually stopping at a small stand. He stepped in and sat down on a stool, a few feet away sat a woman. The spider nin observed her for a moment. The blonde hair, large chest and big eyes...Where had he seen this woman before. Then it came to him. "Y...Your Tsunade!"
"So? Whats it to ya, kid?" The woman asked in reply, before taking a long sip of sake from a shot glass.

Kumo blinked. "Well...Your one of the legendary Sennin!" he stammered after several moments, before bowing his head slightly. "Please, train me...Even if its just a day!" he yelled suddenly.
Tsunade hardly seemed phased. "Buzz off kid...I hardly deal with annoying flies like you," she mumbled, to interested in her drink to care.
"Please? Just one day! A technique or two! Thats all I ask!" Kumo replied, his voice growing louder.
"I said no, now go away!" She yelled suddenly, finally hearing enough as she raised her hand up in front of Kumo and with a simple flick sent the boy flying a few meters away.

Kumo sighed as he slowly got up, looking back up at the woman. "Please...?" he tried once more, releasing another light sigh as he made his way back to the stand.
Tsunade shook her head. "You really are a persistent brat..." she mumbled but set down her glass before sitting up. "And for that...I suppose I could give you a few pointers and techniques," she said, grinning lightly at the boy.

Kumo smiled, and nodded to that. "Thank you..." he said softly as he bowed his head slightly to the woman.
"Before we begin...Whats your name, boy?" Tsunade asked, raising a slight brow as she got up off the chair, walking out of the stand to walk over to the spider nin. "And why do ya have to be so goddamn persistent?"
"Kidoumaru Kumo..." The boy replied faintly as he looked back up at the sannin. "And I'm persistent because I need strength..."

"Strength...?" Tsunade said in a questionable tone as she paced around the boy, seeming to judge him as she examined him. "Strength for what? To become like the past Kage of your village? Orochimaru?"
Kumo sighed, then shook his head. "No...Power to protect those close, and defeat those in my way," he replied faintly, causing a smile to spread across the Sannin's face.
"Very well then...I suppose your reaons are reasonable enough...Let us begin," The woman said before silently jumping into the air.

Kumo looked up, and the next thing he knew, he saw Tsunade come down beside him, bringing her leg down in a powerful kick. As she did so, the very ground beneath them cracked and gave away. "Wha...What the hell...was that?"
Tsunade smiled, patting Kumo lightly on the shoulder. "That, child, is what you'll be learning today. Its known as Tsuuten Kyaku or in english terms, Bruising Sky Leg, which is a technique developed by me. With enough force, this attack could kill any normal ninja on contact."

"Now...Do what I just did, I want to see how much work I have to do with you," Tsunade said softly, then glanced at the boy. "As I did, just raise your foot up in a high arc, then just bring it down with full force. Simple." She said with a light smile.
Kumo nodded before raising his leg up, then brought it down onto the cement ground. A slight crack appeared on the floor, but nothing more. Another crack sounded, but not from the ground, but from Kumo's leg. Apparently, the attempt had broken a few bones.
Tsunade sighed, and shook her head. "This...May take a while."

"Alright, stick your leg out," Tsunade mumbled with a light sigh.
Kumo looked up, watching the woman for several moments before nodding. With a light wince, he stuck out his leg.
The Sannin knelt down and examined it. She smirked after several moments. "Nothing big...Just a fractured bone," she said faintly, making a small stream of seals before healing and repairing the bones. "There...That should work."
Kumo nodded, then stood up straight. "Still...How am I supposed to do it with your force? My strength is nowhere near yours!" he stammered with a sigh.

Tsunade smiled then. "Its all about your inner strength and will. You have to have confidence that your strike will be strong and meet its mark. You were nervous this time...I could tell," she said faintly. "Dont be afraid. Just have confidence in yourself and focus your strength into that attack, and it wont fail...Trust me. Do I as just said and you'll get it right this time," she added softly and grinned at the boy. "Now give it a try kid."
Kumo simply nodded, then raised his leg up in the air. Confidence...Focus all strength to my legs and trust that it will work... he spoke in his thoughts before bringing his foot down.

Kumo felt his leg make contact with the ground and his leg seemed to simply pass through, crushing right through the cement, sending cracks and debri scattering in all directions. His eye's widened, now beyond surprise. Yet he felt surprisingly tired now.
"See? I told ya...Just needed a little confidence, thats all," Tsunade said softly, giving the boy a playful punch. "Now, catch your breath...It'll take time before you get used to wielding great amounts of physical strength, so train hard...But now, we'll be moving on."(10/10)

Kumo sighed as he plopped down onto the ground. Surprisingly, all of his bones remained in one piece. He smiled, then glanced up at the Sannin woman. "What now?" he said softly, grinning as he watched Tsunade.
Tsunade smiled back down at him. "We'll be moving on. You got the hardest part of my training done, wielding your physical strength correctly, but now we'll be moving on to another technique."

A dark shadow slowly began to form on Leaf's horizon. A cloud was moving closer and closer towards the wall, it was radiating pure evil. This was no ordinary cloud, it was a sandstorm, something that shouldn't have come anywhere near Konoha. The cloud was there now, at the wall, at the gates of the famous village. This cloud was obivously confusing the anbu gaurds on the walls as a high pitched keening sound could be heard in the center of the cloud something not human. Then as if to add to the disturbing qualities of this sand storm. A huge roar obviously not human eminated from the deepest coldness of the storm. Now a form began to be seen coming from the center of the cloud. A man with now long silver white hair and deep peircing gray eyes, once filled with hapiness, now scarred with deep sadness. He carried two things on his back a huge gray gourd and a equally large scroll, other then that the only thing that could be told of this man was that he was barefoot, was wearing a hunter nins mask and a old, frayed long blue coat with white clouds depicted all over it, it now was a few inches to short revealing his bare feet. As the man steped through the threshold of Leaf's gate, the wind and sand died down disapating quickly. A ghost from the past had returned.....

"Now tell me, how do we move? What allows us to control our limbs to our own will? Responding to our thoughts and commiting our actions?" Tsunade asked moments later as she paced around the boy as he regained his strength.
Kumo blinked for several moments, thinking the question through, attempting to ignore the sudden breeze of wind flowing from off near the gate of the village. "Our nerves..." he said simply after several moments.

Tsunade smiled, and nodded at this. "That is partially correct..." she said softly as she continued to pace around the boy. "And what is it that travels along our nerves to send messages of control and orders throughout our body? I'll give you a slight hint. It starts with an E," she added with a simple smirk.
Kumo furrowed his brow but sighed as he seemed to tilt his head back and forth, letting his thoughts circulate. He had heard this all somewhere before. A current that travels through the nerves, transmitting messages to any part of the body. It wasnt chakra, it started with an E. He smiled as the answer came to him "Electricity!"
