The lake was rocking back and forth from each attempt at the shark bullet technique. The ripples from before had evolved into waves and the simple splashes turned into roars. Wraths breath turned into heavy breathing and sweat trickling down the side of his face. Wrath was going to need to rest again real soon.

Wrath gave another attempt to the jutsu and it was almost perfect. It still seemed effective but he wanted to give it that grace instead of just power. He was finally getting the hang of the jutsu. He loved the feeling of when he knew he was mastering something. The anticipation of using in battle.

After a while, Elruda exited the library and went directly (this time) to watch Wrath practice his Suiton ninjutsu. Not wishing to bother him, Elruda sat on a large boulder not too far from the temple but not too near the lake either. She had no desire to indirectly get soaked by the swamp water.

Taking a deep breath, Tatianna sat herself down on a large flat stone. She wandered to one of her more favorite areas of the Fujiko land, the Rock Islands. Yes of course the name was corny, naturally because she had named it that herself, but there was no better way to describe the cluster of rocks amongst a bed of murky brown mud that was nearly as effective as quicksand in some ares. It was a very intruiging area of natures design. It also made for a great place for training. There were a few areas she had been working on increasing so tha she she could leanr some more advanced jutsu. At this point, she hadn't learn any new jutsu since academy, but her mind was sharper and her senses were more heigtened and she had much more control over her waterforce, though much work was still to be done, but she supposed that was a good start. Now she would work at perfecting Oboro Bunshin. The discipline required would hopefully boost her other abilities enough to move on.
So getting up to her feet, she did a series of stretches before taking a deep and focusing breath. Having done so much physical training had put her slightly out of touch with her chakra. If it hadn't been for her constant speaking with the spirits, she probably would be even worse off. Whispering a silent prayer that they be with her during her training, she began.

Now, if she could just remember what she went through to learn the other Bunshin techniques, she would be fine. To warm up, she performed the basic Bunshin technique. A perfect fake of herself appeared next to her and she merely kicked it in the ribs, causing it to disperse. "Alright, here we go. Focus." It would be tricky to learn a jutsu all on her own, but she was up for the challenge. And she was lifted her hands to perform the needed seals, she paused. "Ahh damn...I don't even know what I need to do to learn this jutsu..." The realization caused her to plop back down on the rocks surface. Great...where was she going to find someone to train her? She would have asked Wrath, but he was busy with a student of his own now. She immediately thought of a few other familiar names. There was Aero-sensei, or even one of her uncles. But again, she was sure that they were all busy with other students. Her only other option was Jin. She had only met him once in her life and that was when she had been very young. But now he was ANBU. Would he even consider training her?
Tatianna got up to leave the area then. Her focus now was to find someone who would be willing to teach her. She new she was not a quiter and she was determined to become stronger. Would that be enough for someone to take her under their wing? She wasn't sure, but she would have to try. Perhaps Wrath could atleast point her in a good direction. So she made her way back to where she had last seen him training, sighing in relief when she saw that he was still there. A safe distance from the action was Elruda, the Hyuga she had meet out at the training feilds. This brought a smile to Tatianna's face and she went to go and have a seat beside her. "Hey, been a while neh?"

In between jutsu attempts Wrath rested to catch his breath. But something had caught his ear. He stopped and listened carefully, a familiar voice, it was Tati. Wrath's head spun around looking in all directions and spotted her sitting beside Elruda. Wrath slowly walked toward the both of them wondering how strong Tati has gotten since he last saw her. "Haven't seen you in a while cousin." He blurted out.

Tatianna turned her head to Wrath as he approached them and she waved excitedly. She had been nervous about talking to him again for so long, but now that they had actually said hello to one another, it somehow melted away. And in her usual greeting, she got up from her seat and launched herself at Wrath, giving him a big hug. "Wow man, look how taller you are now! And was that a water jutsu you were learning? Amazing! I just got back to the village and I was looking for someone to train me. Have any leads?"

After three seconds Wrath pushed Tatianna off of him and spoke. "Yea that was a suiton jutsu. And you've gotten a little taller yourself." He replied and then added. "I'll train you. Have you learned any new jutsu since I last saw you? What about the Fujiko taijutsu?" Wrath asked.

Tatianna recovered quickly from Wrath's shove, the smile never leaving her face. That was usually how it went, and if he had reacted any other way, she would have thought he was sick or something. "Whoa you will?? But you've already started training Elruda here right? You can train us both?" she asked, obviously surprised.

"Yeah I can. Besides everyone else has been really busy lately so I'm the only one who has the time to. Now what have you learned?" Wrath replied.

Wrath sighed from Tati's response. He expected here to have learned something in the past two years but, oh well. "Well I'm gonna start by teaching you our clans taijutsu. Now watch" Wrath said. He slowly moved in a circular motion showing Tati each step so that she could learn it faster. He then started to circle around her after he showed her the steps, then when he was behind her he shove his left leg between both of hers and explained what he was doing. Afterwards he slowly twisted his body down, wrapping his leg around hers and soft brought her down to the ground. "And this is when you hold both of your opponents arms behind their back and keep your knee behind the joint of their leg. Got it, good. Now work on it." Wrath said getting up and releasing her. He walked a few feet away to watch her and if necessary prod her until she got the movements correct.
((Dansu no ookawa supirittono jutsu (Dance of the River Spirit)
Description of Jutsu: This taijutsu appears to be a dance because it was originally a dance to honor the great river spirit. The two fighters will mainly be back to back because or the movements of the dance. As this dance goes on the fighters will appear to be circling each other but still almost touching. And when there is an opening, the perform will be able to knock their opponent off balance and down to the ground. If the dance was done correctly then the performer also should be able to disarm and pin their opponent down holding the enemy's arms behind their back. This jutsu is one of the Fujiko's peaceful techniques that wasn't meant to harm.
Cp Cost: N/A
Damage: N/A
Training: 3 days

((Ok))
Tatianna watched closely and listened carefully as Wrath explained the steps of the dance to her. She nodded her head to show that she had understood everything she had just been shown. She remembered seeing similar moves of the Kapchico style being done at festivals, so she was confident that it wouldn't take her too long to get the hang of it.
Picking herself up from the floor, she began by placing her feet slowly in each step of the dance as Wrath had shown her only minutes before. The steps eventually began to lead her into a circular motion.

Once she was able to go through the first few steps, she stopped, starting from the beginning. One step at a time she repeated herself, checking her balance and the position of her feet. One thing she had learned was that repetition was key to making sure something stuck in your head. Also, she new that fundamentals were the most crucial part of learning anything, so if she spent the extra effort making sure all of the little things were perfect, then when the time came, the move would be flawlessly executed on her end.

Taking herself through the foot movements of the basic dance one more time, Tatianna started from the begining again, this time going a bit faster, and trying to feel a rhythm. Afterall, one could not do a dance properly without rhythm. BUt as she moved to make her steps circular, she stummbled over her footing. She hadn't fallen to the ground, but it had thrown her off enough. "Ah dang..." snapping her fingers she went back to the basics again.
