Welcome to Gaia! ::

The rocks were close enough and neji started to strike with lightning strikes and deadly presicion. Komen was amazed at it all. Neji was like a blur as he deflected each and every single piece of pebble and rocks that were thrown at him. He had finished his technique and their was not a scratch on him. Komen was quite amazed at that.

"The Second Variation is the more chakra draining one that requires you to build a longer chargeinto your tenketsu points." Neji said as he retook the stance and started to gather his chakra and refocus on the Eight Trigrams symbol in his mind.

8/9 Eight Trigrams Palms Great Heavenly Spin

Neji started to spin and released a wider area for his Heavenly Spin. It was so big that Komen had to Jump back or he would be caught up in it. As Neji finished the technique their was a huge drilled curve hole under neji. Neji big his way to a lower level with that huge rotation defense. "Now it's your turn Komen." Neji said as he jumped up to the regular ground level.

Komen nodded and focused hard on the eight trigrams symbol in his mind. Once done Komen focused his chakra to his tenketsu Points. Komen then opened his eyes as he began to spin on the ball of his foot. "Eight Trigrams Palms Great Heavenly Spin!" He siad as his chakra escaped the tenketsu points and rotated around him in a wide area of chakra defense.

*Yawn* Wow, what time is it...?"
Nemu had been awake for a while, but she hadn't felt like getting out of bed, not even to sit up. Instead she just lay there, feeling at peace and fully rested. She knew she should do some more training, but she just didn't want to. Chalking it up either to her Nara heritage or her own deficiency, it took a supreme force of will to actually sit up and open her eyes. Sighing, she knew if she'd gotten this far, she had to go the rest of the way. No chance of spending all day in bed, no matter how much she might like to.
A short while later, she was done getting ready for the day, although the day had gotten quite the head start on her. Grabbing a quick breakfast, she tried deciding just what she should do today. More training? It seemed the obvious choice, but she'd done nothing but train for the past- how long had it been anyways?! She felt like she had been doing nothing but training day in, day out! She needed a break! That was it, today was...
Nemu's Day Off!
(Shadow Summoning/Gathering: 1/10)

"Ah, this was such a good idea!"
Nemu fell back against her bed, flipping through a manga. She hadn't had time to catch up on this story in months, she didn't even know what had happened between Hikari and Amane-sempai yet. But now it was her day off, she could read all the manga she wanted to! Well, almost. She had bought most of the issues, but the newest one should still be on the newstands, right? She wasn't worried.
She whiled away her entire morning in this way, flipping through her manag, grabbing a snack, falling asleep once or twice; generally just slacking off. It felt good to take a break from all that training, she'd really needed this! But good times always end too soon, she turned the last page of her last volume and frowned. What now? She didn't really want to leave the house, but she had to know what happened next. What to do?! Well, if she wanted the next volume, she would have to. Well all right then, she could afford one brief excursion, couldn't she?
(Shadow Summoning/Gathering: 2/10)

"Oh no! You really don't have *yawn* any more?!"
They were all sold out?! Now what was she going to do?! She always bought her manga here, she didn't know if any other shops in the village sold that title. In the midst of her depression, the store owner pointed out there was another shop on the opposite side of Konoha, maybe they'd have it? She thanked the shopkeep and went on her way, determined to find the manga even if she had to search the entire village. So much for her day off...
It took a bit of walking, she didn't go nearly as fast as she did for training. But finally, she found her target. It was a smaller shop, no wonder she hadn't known about it. Stepping inside, she felt a bit disappointed. It looked more like a real bookstore. Did they have any manga here at all? She started searching the shelves, but so far she didn't see any. Wait, what about that one, was it a manga? But just before she picked it up, a voice rang out from the back of the store.
"Hey kid, you're not old enough to read that, put it back!"
Nemu blinked, caught off guard. Her curiousity driving her, she glanced at the cover page. 'Make-out Paradise'? Eeww, it was one of those kinds of books! Who reads that stuff anyways!
(Shadow Summoning/Gathering: 3/10)

Nemu quickly put the book back on the shelf as the store owner huffed his way to the front of the store to glare at her angrily. He went immediately into full-blown lecture mode, apparantly he thought she was another udnerage ninja who 'had to read' that perverted trash. It took her a good half hour to explain her situation to him. He finally calmed down, but it seemed he didn't quite believe her story about just needing a copy of the story she'd been reading. But even so, she insisted, and finally he relented, pointing out a shelf near the back where all the mangas were kept. She went right over, and began searching. They were hardly sorted at all! Some were upside down, or put in backwards, such a mess, how could that store owner live with it? But instead of complaining and drawing his ire, she just kept looking. Finally, she found it! Pulling it out, she double-checked. Yes, it was the right title. She'd done it! Marching up to the counter, she plunked it down to pay for it. The store owner rang it up and told her the price. A bit more than she wanted to pay, but the series was sooo worth it. But then-
"Oh no! Where'd my *yawn* coin purse go!?"
(Shadow Summoning/Gathering: 4/10)

Nemu nearly started crying; she'd forgotten her coin purse at home?! That wasn't fair! But she knew the store owner wouldn't care, she just had to hope he'd be willing to hang onto it for her. She explained what happened, and asked if he'd hang onto it until she came back. He glowered, and only gave a noncommittal reply. It would have to do, she didn't have any other options. Nemu dashed out of the store, putting all her focus into moving as fast as she could, to get home and get her money.
She used every shortcut she knew, she pushed herself as hard as she'd ever done before, but still it seemed to take forever until she was back home. No time to stop and rest, though, she had a manga to buy! Grabbing her coin purse (a cute little bluebird pouch) she tore out of her house in a flash, going to the bookstore with all due speed. She knew she had enough for the manga, hopefully there wouldn't be any more surprises. There it was, she could see the shop now! But just as she stopped in front of it-
(Shadow Summoning/Gathering: 5/10)

-BANG-
The door flew open, bopping her right in the face, knocking her to the ground. All thoughts flew out of her head, as her hands went to hold her face, make sure nothing was broken. A few tears squeezed out of her tightly-clenched eyes, but she didn't cry out. She heard someone tromp past, apparantly they were in such a hurry they wouldn't even apologize. What a jerk!
Eventually, she felt a little better and got to her feet. She cleaned her face and caught her breath, then walked back into the shop. She went directly to the counter and asked for the manga she'd had him hang onto. The look on his face made her stop cold, though. For a second there, she would have sworn his expression was a malicious grin. Her fears were realized as he told her someone else had just bought it, she should have hurried up. That wasn't fair, she had hurried as much as she could! Wait, they just bought it? It must have been that jerk who hit her! Ooh, if she found out who it was, she would give him such a thrashing!
(Shadow Summoning/Gathering: 6/10)

Nemu hung her head low as she left the shop, now what was she going to do? She didn't know any other book stores, and her face still hurt too. This day off sucked! She just wanted to head home and go to sleep, forget today ever happened, but things were never that easy. She wasn't even watching where she was going, so she ended up tripping over a rock and falling face-first into a puddle of mud. She very nearly broke down crying again, but merely sniffled, she couldn't give up!Instead, she got to her feet and continued on her trudge hom, now leaving muddy footprints behind her as she did. Of course her bad day wouldn't stop that easily, it just seemed to get worse. A brief rain shower got her soaked, a stray dog from the Inuzuka clan started chasing her, and then there were those little Academy brats who started calling her names! Could this day get any worse!? But of course, whenever anyone ever asked that question, fate had a way of proving things could get much worse.
(Shadow summoning/Gathering: 7/10)

"Owie, that hurts!"
Nemu had still been trying to go home, but a long parade of people carrying boxes had forced her to take a detour through a short section of forest. Not so bad, but then she'd tripped again and scraped her knee. Now she was muddy, soaked and bleeding, and she still hadn't found her manga! She didn't care anymore, she just wanted to head home and cry until she fell asleep. But even that was proving impossible. Her knee hurt so bad she could hardly put weight on it. Had she twisted it? That's just great!
Now she had to hobble along as best she could, nearly hopping on her good leg. It became even slower going as she finally neared her house. She got closer and closer, and nearly flinched each time she saw something move, her nerves shot from all that had happened. Finally, she reached her front door and flopped down onto the porch, utterly exhausted. She could abrely keep her eyes open, she needed just a little nap...
(Shadow Summoning/Gathering: 8/20)

But she couldn't even fall asleep! She tried, tossing and turning ont he cold wooden boards, but she couldn't doze off! It wasn't fair. She usually fell asleep just from talking, how could she not fall asleep after allof this?! Just great. She sat there until her butt started to hurt, and finally gave up, she might as well head inside and take a bath, call it a night. She shakily got to her feet, nearly fell over again, and then managed to latch onto the doorknob.
Pulling her door open, she lurched inside, not even bthering to turn the lights on. Stumbling throgh the pitch blackness, she tried to make her way to her bathroom, even though it required going up the stairs. It took all she had, but eventually she made it. Nearly sobbing in relief, she stripped out of her soiled clothes and filled the tub. Once full, she slid in, and-
"Kyah!"
It was ice cold! She shivered, and pulled her foot out of the tub. Great... Now she didn't even have any hot water. Was the heater broken again? Sobbing quietly, she tried washing herself off, getting the majority of the mud and dirt and blood and tears.
(Shadow Summoning/Gathering: 9/10)

She had cleaned herself up as much as she could, and slipped into a bathrobe. At least it was kind of fluffy, that was one good thing for the day. She carefully made her way downstairs, but when she did, she had quite a surprise waiting for her.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NEMU!"
What the heck?! the lights flickered on as her living room was shown filled with her friends and family! Was today really her birthday, had she forgotten with all that training? She managed a weak smile and came the rest of the way down the stairs. everyone congratulated her and the party began. there was good food and drinks, and she even had some presents! She began opening them after everyone urged her to, and one of them was the manga she'd missed!
Looking up, she saw one of her friends grinning sheepishly. It had been he who had bumped into her with the door, he didn't dare apologize since she would have recognized his voice. Nemu couldn't help it, she started bawling. Everyone wondered what was wrong, but you can cry when you're happy, can't you?
"Don't give up, Nemu-chan!"
