Welcome to Gaia! ::

Her kick came in contact with one of the clones, and he fell into the other. They both landed on the ground at Sakura's feet. Kakashi just watched.

((Short. >.<))

((Sorry I had do go eat dinner.))

Kakashi nodded. He was very proud of her. "You're advancing well. You learned to use your other senses in no time. Very good. That's all for today, unles you have something you want to practice." He said.

"Alright." Kakasih said. He watched her go, and leaned against a tree. He relaxed and pulled out his orange book. "This is as good a time as any." He said reading the little book.

The current changed. Fingers quickly clutched and in consequence, they successfully caught a living breathing 6 pound fish. She pulled it forth from the water, it's fins flapping and it's body gasping for air. It was a great specimen for practice, but she would have to keep it alive if she were to actually get anything out of it.

Pushing the fish under water, but using one hand to hold it down, she began making hand signs with her free hand and concentrating on her subject.


There was a stinging sensation as she placed her free hand along the fish with her other hand, the tingling rushing up both of her arms made her felt like some kind of human battery.

Her eyes stayed open, watching the fish underneath the water.
Nothing was happening, not yet...

"Ugh.." she mumbled as she tried again, making the same hand signals and repeating the process. The fish spasmed under her hand and twitched, trying it's best to break free.

Then slowly, ever so painfully slow, it's tail fin began to stop swaying madly. Till finally it stopped completely...

But the rest of the fish was still actively trying to escape.

She almost shouted out for joy, she had actually done it! She stopped blood flow! It hadn't been in the precise place she wanted, she was more or so aiming for it's fins in the front. But still, she could cut off blood flow!

A little more practice and she would be able to stop it from anywhere.
She grinned confidentally. The Jutsu itself was like shoving Corks into the veins and capilaries of a chosen part of the body, often it was used to prevent bleeding... but for this, it could cut off nurtients to the selected area and the tissue would die.

Freeze burn, it was almost just like it. Or wrapping a rubber band tightly around the finger till it turned a bright reddish purple.

The feeling would be gone and no matter what, and so would the chakra.

She let go of the fish, once again feeling bright and confident, then proceeded to look for the next victim.

Anheru closed her eyes. She focused her mind and cleared it of all thoughts. She concentrated on her breathing. In... Out... In... Out... She let the oxygen wash into her lungs and pushed out the moist warm air as she exhailed. The breeze blew around her, causing her clothes and hair to sway.
She opened her eyes; focused and refreshed. With grace she removed the rubber training shuriken from its holster on her back. She liked to keep it with her at all times. It came in handy for almost any kind of mission. From training genin to exicuteing an assassination if used properly.
With a flip of the wrist, she had the shuriken spinning wildly in her hand making a 'fwiiiisssh' sound. Keeping the shuriken spinning at the same speed the whole time, she moved it to different attack positions around her body, practicing the form.
This went on for fifteen minutes, gradually speeding up the time it took to move from place to place until her arm and the shuriken were almost impossable to see.

Jeiden stood in a nice enclosed training spot, there was a small creek nearby in case he became thirsty, but still didn't need water after an entire night of training, and he didn't need it now. There were four enormous weights attatched to his wrists and legs. He formed his hands into a seal and began to bring enormous amounts of chakra to the surface. His body seemed to crackle with energy.

Soon nearby rocks began to fly backwards, water in the stream began to ripple. He needed everybit of chakra in order to move with the enormous weights. He was beginning to be able to control his chakra better and better everyday, if he could retain 100 percent in his hands for the Rasengan, then he could retain 100 percent in his body as well.

"Come on..." His bandana had slipped off during his many hours of training, revealing some of the worst hat hair ever. That combined with his blood shot eyes, and crazed look of determination on his face. He had the appearance of some insane animal.

He shot forwards at a quick dash, the weights were really starting to become light now, but he still couldn't move at the speed he could move before he had them. That was his goal. He disappeared in a flash, reappeared behind a tree in mid air, then delivered a kick with nearly all of his weight in it.

The tree came crashing down. "Still not good enough.." He muttered. There were large bags under his eyes from training all night.

Zolo reached the border to the County of Fire. Zolo said to himself as if he were in front of Kakashi, " well Kakashi it's time to see if my training has paid off." Zolo continues to walk : his destination Konoha.....
