Welcome to Gaia! ::

Attention all students in the Academy, these are the 4 jutsu on the chalk board. You may learn them now but once i teach the final basic jutsu, they will be erased.

Mizu Kagami no Jutsu (Water Mirror Technique)
Description: A simple jutsu that allows the user to turn a quantity of water as small as a drop and as large as a small puddle into a mirrored surface. This can allow the user to see behind himself, and around corners with careful application of the technique.

Uo Tsuba (Fish Spit)
Description: A simple jet of water shot from the mouth. It can hit with enough force to stun you if it hits properly. It can be done up to 5 times in succession, or one jet can be shot. To give an example of its power, Mist academy students usually use this technique to play a game much like tag.

Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu (Water Clone Technique)
Description: Creates one or multiple identical copies of the original out of water. More similar to Kage Bunshin then a regular Bunshin, water clones are capable of attacking, except each clone is roughly 1/10 the power of the original. The water clone can perform one jutsu that the user also knows once. It must be a water elemental jutsu. One solid hit will destroy the clone.

Mizu Soujuu (Water Manipulation)
Description: Any Mist Shinobi that uses ninjutsu should likely have this technique. This involves learning basic manipulation of the properties of water. Boiling, freezing, and pressurization of water are included in these studies. Freezing is mostly limited to small amounts of water, and boiling includes the creation of steam by further putting chakra into the water. The user cannot perform these tasks on larger bodies of water with this basic study alone. Furthermore, by learning to draw water from the moisture in the air, the shinobi can use water techniques without requiring a source of water nearby (unless stated otherwise.) A Kage level jutsu always requires a water source, even if the Mist-nin in question creates it first.

((Please read the last part of this quoted message. In order for a jutsu to be learned it must be under detailed and thought out posts))

((If this is required to learn a Low E-ranked jutsu, I hate to see how much I'll need for an S-ranked jutsu. Not complaining, just stating a fact))

((For the record. My posts don't look like paragrahs because I use small font))

Hizuma began to concentrate. he could feel moisture in the air. But then again, he did live in MIST Village, so that was normal. He briefly wondered how much mastery he would need to use this in, say, the desert. Shaking his head, he got back on task quickly.

He refocused, willing the moisture around him to come towards him. This of course did nothing, but he guessed it would help to some extent. He began to leak out a bit of chakra into the mist around him, using this to call it towards him. Finally, he made one hand seal, focusing his chakra for its specific use.

He focused. and began to call the water towards himself, to gather on the desk. He closed his eyes, trying to shut everyone off from his concentation. he opened his eies to see...three drops of water gathered on the desk.

Hizuma read over the board again, reading the first jutsu on the list. He didn't like having to learn such a sophomoric technique, since it would be hard to use in combat. But he figured there was, or would be, a reason to learn it. Besides, it was required to graduate the Academy. So he sucked it up and read the instructions. He read them through again, hoping he had misread them. This technique was almost easy. Sighing as he noticed people were getting quieter, he began focusing his chakra through his body, prepairing for the technique.

He breathed in some misty air as he made hand seals. He pushed it out, almost bullet-like, as he exhaled. But nothing happened. He tried again, with the same displeasing result. He read the technique over, not finding flaw with what he was doing, going by the board. He tried again, channeling the chakra into his throat. He breathed in, but somehow breathed in somethgin wierd and started couging. he put his hand over his mouth, coughing out spit and water and...hang on, there was a thought. He tried this again after the coughing fit had passed.

He focused the chakra into his throat and made the hand seal. He breathed in slowly, then exhaled. Not in quick bursts has he had, but slower, but more controlled bursts. The result of this was a large ball of water, flying a few feet before splashing ont an empty desk in front of him. He added more chakra and tried again, repeating the process. He inhaled and exhaled, spitting four waterballs in succcession towards the front of the room. Nodding in his own approval, he tried this again. This time, he used more chakra and pushed out, turning around as he did so. The waterball was consiterably bigger, larger than he had anticipated. he turned back around, hoping those behind him would have snese to dodge the water ball though he had not aimed at any of them.

((Uo Tsuba learned))

((Argh, I haven't been able to post in forever... so I'm just going to do something...))


Varro stared down at his reflection in the latest technique he had already quickly mastered, his mind tracing over how easy this all seemed. He wondered if it would continue to feel so simple, was his mind and bloodline really able to help him achieve his recently developed lofty goals. The crash heard from the door shocked him out of his thoughts, his head snapping in the direction of the noise.

The large dog Rath made him jump as it bounded towards him, passing by to come over to Rei. Varro watched with shock as her and the animal communed in what could only be a conversation that they alone could understand. When she left the class suddenly on-top of the animal, Varro felt an overwhelming sense of concern. It must have been an emergency to leave like that during something as important as the lesson.

He wanted to go after her, for some reason, he had just met this girl but he felt such a caring for her that this sudden event made him worry. Varro stared at the door she had taken off out of for several moments, his mind silent for once before it snapped him back. He would find out what had happened later, for now he had to focus on the class and his training. He could not stay a student, he must move to Genin as soon as he could.

Varro turned back to the front of the class, folding his hands behind his back as he awaited the sensei's next lesson. Confident he would learn that one in no time as well.

When the huge Dire flew into the room it almost knocked him over. He made a mental note to found out what was wrong for Rei-nin. Not only because he was concerned for his student, but if something happened in his village with out him knowing about it, serious repercussions would follow from Luo. Because LT was assigned as ANBU Captain. None the less, LT had a job to do and that would be a later lesson for the students to learn. Mission First, but People Always. After the Wolf left, LT sighed and folded his arms, but he decided against doing nothing, LT formed hand-signs and formed another water clone. It nodded to LT and followed Rei-Nin out the door. The real ANBU Captain turned to the board and wrote down the last basic nin-jutsu for the students. This nin-jutsu is really useful for you sword users. Mizu no Waruasobi (Trick of Water). It has very few hand-signs, and wen you get good at it you dont really need to use the hand signs at all. LT looked at his students for someone who was distracted, He already picked on Varro and Riku, so he decided against those two again, eh he just decided against using one the kids as an example. He would just simply show them.

((Since its such a simple jutsu, just 2 posts are required.))


Mizu no Waruasobi (Trick of Water)
Description: A very simple technique which involves a simple flick of one's hands and a muster of sweat in the fingers. A precise flick comes from of the hands or even a shake can be made as if trying to get something off one's hands. The water streaks from the hand of the user and towards the enemy's eye. This unexpected irritation can blur their vision.
