Deidalus entered the recently remodeled training grounds. It was a good thing for him that when remodeling the place, they had decided to include areas of training for each element. So, it was without hesitation, that Deidalus headed towards the area marked for Suiton users. Nearing the bank of a man made lake, Deidalus reached into his trench coat for the scroll labeled 'Suiton- D-rank Jutsus'. Pulling it out, he scanned the list for one to train in. Deciding on Isonagi no Jutsu, or the Beach Crab Technique, Deidalus read the entry aloud. "The Isonagi jutsu was designed to immobilize and entrap an opponent. By forming a pair of pincers out of water, one could pull the opponent under by grasping their ankles. A variation of this technique utilizes sand that is saturated with water, such as that found at the shoreline of a beach. First, begin by channeling one's chakra into the water through the use of the following hand seals....."

Rolling the scroll up, Deidalus stuck it back into his coat. Walking into the surf, he closed his eyes and began to feel for his chakra. Letting it leak into the water through the Tenketsu in his leg, Deidalus began to allow the Chakra to bond with the water, purifying it in the process. Forming the chakra into a pair of pincers, he clapped his hands together and opened his eyes. "Suiton: Isonagi no Jutsu!" he shouted as he drove his chakra to the surface. A few yards away, a pair of pincers broke the surface and flailed about, uselessly attempted to grasp what was not there. Deidalus grinned before canceling the jutsu and walking back to shore. As he was walking, he took notice of a young ninja in training, obvious from his lack of skill in stealth, hiding in a tree. "You can come out you know. If your interested in Learning, that is. Otherwise, I don't take too kindly to being spied on." Deidalus spoke as he tilted his head, his long bangs covering the left side of his face.

{Isonagi no Jutsu: Learned}

Deidalus sized the boy up, and paused for a few seconds before speaking. "What is your name? And yes, I can and will teach you Ninjutsu. First, let us determine your Chakra nature." Reaching into one of his many vest pockets, he pulled out a small slip of paper. The paper, to most people, seemed just that, paper. However any ninja of Chunin rank or higher would recognize it for it's special design. "This slip of paper, reacts to Chakra and will tell you your nature type. If and when you reach Chunin level, there is a more advanced type that will explain your affinities but this particular one will only tell you your primary affinity. I personally have affinities for four elements."

Handing the young man the slip of paper, Deidalus explained it's use. "If you channel Chakra into it, one of five things will occur. If your element is Katon, it will start to burn. If your element is Fuuton, it will split in two. Raiton, Wrinkle. Doton, Turn to dirt and crumble. Finally, if it's Suiton, the paper will become drenched. I know jutsu from all but Fuuton, however I know enough about the nature itself in order to instruct you if necessary."

Deidalus considered this for a second. While Suiton was not his primary element, he did have a rather decent grasp on it and he had just the jutsu to start Gabriel off with. "Alright then, This ninjutsu is a supplementary jutsu. It allows a Suiton user to pull the water molecules from the air to form your jutsu in an area that may not have a visible water source. I want you to feel the water with your hands, let it wash over them. Get used to the feeling of the water then experiment using your chakra through your hands. note the warm feeling of the chakra mingle with that of the cool water. Try and spike the temperature by raising your chakra and then lower the chakra output back down. Note that when you do so quickly, the temperature drops lower than it originally was. This is the basis of Suiton: Mizu Soujuu or more commonly known as water manipulation. Now try and condense the water. Once you succeed at that, the next step is to draw the water in from the air. Feel the moisture in the breeze and condense it." he said as he demonstrated each step of the process.

"Once you finish working on that, here is a second jutsu I want you to work on." He said as he held his hands together. "Suiton: Mizu Bunshin no jutsu!" As if rising to wakefullness at the sound of his words, a Clone formed itself out of the water in the lake. "The Mizu bunshin is formed by condensing the water into the shape of your own body and solidifying it. A simple process for a simple jutsu. However, I recommend that you complete the Training for Mizu Soujuu before attempting this technique." With that, Deidalus stepped back to allow Gabriel to practice. "If you need anything, My clone can assist you. If it cannot, it will retrieve me. I won't be very far." Deidalus said as he left the two behind.

(ooc: he is not asking you to perform Mizu Soujuu on the entire body of water, but on the water surrounding your hands. Please note: Due to Deidalus Profession and the Training grounds bonus, both of these jutsu should only take you 1 post each.)
