Just because I'm blind, doesn't mean I'm useless. Let it be known that I will rise through the ranks, and prove I'm a Shinobi.
All of Aiden's showy displays were lost on the blind Hitomi, but she could feel the heat of the generated fire, even where she was sitting a safe distance away. Even so, his words confirmed what her skin did, he could access fire. She smiled slightly and bowed her head, "Seems like we're a leg up then."The little Hyouton said with a shrug of her delicate shoulders. She turned back to the direction of her sensei's voice and nodded at his words, when he mentioned a shop to gather supplies. She stood and dusted the dirt and snow from her yukata and then silently followed her sensei, "Come on, Kiyoshi, Aiden, we shouldn't keep our Sensei waiting."
I choose the hard road, not the easy one, because nothing worth doing is easy. I will prove that I'm not someone to be pushed aside. I will not be forgotten.
After Aiden finished his demonstration of his katon, and his sensei explained that Kiyoshi could still make fire, even without knowing jutsu, the twitchy genin smiled slightly, then after hearing Hitomi say they shouldn’t keep sensei waiting, Kiyoshi simply nodded and followed his friend and teammate out of the academy.

Cracking his knuckles Aiden would pick Balto up into his arms as the little wolf pup scrambled to his head excited for the mission. A smile would break across his face as Aiden followed the others excited for the dangers that they shall face.
"Even the way ahead lies through a river of blood."
Ai watch her knew friend, Nyx leave, and then got up herself, and got down the bench soon after. She went to see if the Raikage needed her. She walked out the door, fiddling with what she is wearing. (Exit to, Raikage's Office) _____________________________________________________________

Ai walked in, and looked around. "Alright, guys. We need to find scrolls if you want to train on your jutsu's." She nodded, and looked behind her. "I will be watching. If you need my help, I will be there." She folded her arms, and watched everyone. _____________________________________________________________

xxxxxxxxxxThe twins looked at one another before returning their striking gaze back to Ai. Their hands raised at the same time to ask a question. As soon as they were addressed, their hands would lower and Sachiko would step forwards. "We aren't sure what kind of things we excel at." She stopped for a moment and gazed at the floor as if listening to something in her own mind before lifting her eyes and continuing to speak. "Tomohiro would like to observe Tiber and Mirabelle's way of training before starting on anything ourselves if that would be alright with you. We can occupy ourselves with some basic types of training while he studies them." She hated the way he described things, but he often got made when she didn't tell people exactly what he wanted to say. Well, to a point. He didn't get upset when she excluded the rude remarks about physical appearance and anything having to do with the people's mothers.

After some time of wondering off on his own, getting lost, finding his way, then getting lost again. Tiber finally burst his way into the academy, instantly spotting his team he made his way over to them barely in time to catch the exchange between Sachiko and Ai. "Oh so you want to watch the master at work huh!? Haha don't worry I can understand. I am pretty awesome after all." Moving a ways back to give himself space Tiber decided it would be best to start out by learning to control his kekkei genkai. Pulling out a pair of ragged scrolls Tiber tossed one of which to the side and read through the first few jutsu. Alright looks like this first one consists of controlling my abilities. Heh this will be easy. Holding up one hand Tiber worked of focusing his chakra into the length of his arm. Instead of exerting it into an outside force however, Tiber used to manipulate his body. Fusing it with his skin and muscles the transformation began to take place. Albeit rather slowly. His arm grow in size until it was almost twice as large, while the hair on his forearm entangled around the length of his hand. Nails growing jagged and sharp. It took precious longer before it fully shaped into the arm of bear. [1/2]
Tiber grinned pleased with himself for making it this far already but refused to let up after making it this close. Taking the same principle of morphing himself with chakra Tiber applied it to his whole body this time. His whole body seemed to bulge with muscles moving and growing large under his the skin. His hair grew so fast that it melded with the fur growing from his back, and easily consumed his whole body. The last effect was his nose lengthening into a snout with pointed fangs peeking their heads out from his lips. All within a few quick moments the young was gone. Vanishing into the image of great kodiak bear. Looking himself over his new body Tiber laughed in excitement which probably come out in more of a deep growl. Spinning back towards his companions he waved frantically trying to show off his new form. Hey guys look! I can turn into a freaking bear woohoo! Though he tried to speak all that would come out is bear grumbles and grunts since Tiber didn't actually know how to talk in this form, assuming he was even capable of it. [2/2]

[[ooc: sorry for taking so long >. < ]] [[Location: ]] [[Thoughts: ]] [[With: ]]
Mirabelle bounced along humming to herself as she followed along with her group. Humming a soft tune to herself while Ai released them to begin their training. Spinning around on her heel Mirabelle went to look over some of the many scrolls and books they had of nearly every jutsu. Looking them over with indecision Mirabelle stood there biting her lip. Hm.. I guess I should start with something easy. Maybe a doton technique would be good. Careful not to damage a few of the older looking scrolls Mirabelle pulled a few of the shelves and lightly skimmed through each of them before making her choice. Preforming a few handseals Mirabelle focused her chakra to the bottom of her feet first. As she did so, her legs would slowly sink into the ground and eventually her whole body would follow suite. Applying the same chakra effect to the rest of her body. [1/1] Tsuchi Gunjikoudou no Jutsu (Earth Release: Earth Military Movement Technique)
Pulling herself out of the ground Mirabelle smiled pleased with herself. Without wasting time she immediately skipped to her next technique. While applying the same principle from the jutsu she just learned Mirabelle disappeared into the ground. The jutsu taking effect once she was fully buried in earth. She shot through the ground similar to Tsuchi Gunjikoudou no Jutsu though at a much quicker pace. Exploring the limits of her new ability Mirabelle moved around the ground before choosing to directing herself to reappear at the enormous wall of doton scrolls [1/1] Iwagakure: Shunshin no Jutsu [ Hidden Earth: Instantaneous Body Skill ]
After completing two new jutsu Mirabelle decided to move on to learning her kekkei genkai jutsu as it would give her the ability to test manipulating the techniques with her instrument. Gathering all the books she could find on her kekkei genkai Mirabelle tackled each of them with a hidden vigor. The prospect of actually learning something about her clan seemed to light an inner fire within herself. Starting herself off with the beginnings jutsu Mirabelle made sure to go over every little detail to get everything down perfect. Holding a single handsign she used her chakra to alter the form of her body, or more specially her hand. forming two extra mouths of either side of her hand. So ecstatic was she that Mirabelle started giggling to herself. Exempt the sound come from the two new fully functioning mouths. [1/1] Kuchi no Seika • Mouth's Chant
After finishing her fit of giggles Mirabelle jumped into the next book. Oh it looks I can manipulate my hair with this. I wonder long hair is common among my clan? In a similar manner to her mouths chant Mirabelle formed a single handsign, however instead of sending the chakra to her palm it would flow through her hair. Growing and mending itself together ready to form itself into any shape Mirabelle wished. deciding to stick with what was already familiar to her she choose a flute. Pulling the auburn colored flute from her mess of hair Mirabelle studied her new construct thoroughly. Surprised at how superior it was was to her own instrument being incredibly light weight and appearing almost perfect. Setting herself on testing it Mirabelle began playing a tune on her new flute. [1/1] Hea no Yoriito • Hair's Twine
Ai nodded to Tomohiro's request. "That's fine. Just make sure to train when you're done." She moved to a chair, sat down, and watched everyone's progress, smiling softly. _____________________________________________________________
xxxxxxxxxxSachiko nodded to Ai's instructions to make sure and train when her brother was finished doing his little observations on his teammates. She stood at his side as he mentally wrote down what each of them were capable of physically, but could barely hide his surprise when Tiber began to morph into a giant furry monstrosity. When the thing tried waving and growling at them, he moved his sister further away to spy on the other female in their group. Only, she wasn't there for long before she seemed to melt into the ground and out of sight. Jeez, what was with the strange people he seemed to be partnered with? As soon as Mirabelle began giggling to herself like a lunatic, he turned towards his sister and nodded his intention to begin their own training.
"Eee~ Okay, how about we do a run through for the Spring Performance? I still can't keep up with you on the second verse." The girl reached behind her and grabbed her microphone and watched as her brother delicately placed his large guitar case down and moved far enough away for their preparation to begin without the chance of stumbling over his instrument. Taking his place a few feet from her side, she tapped her finger against her microphone three times before the two of them began to move in complete unison as Sachiko began to sing.
While it was immediately apparent that the dance was created for a girl and not someone who looked like Tomohiro, he was performing the movements with experienced precision while Sachiko seemed to be a bit more lax in her movements. The twins were facing in the same directions, and their movements seemed to mirror each other, but Tomohiro was happy with the way that his sister was moving and stopped only a few seconds into the practice. He stared at her, and gave a disapproving stare. "You need to put more effort into your movements or they're going to seem lazy on stage."
She puffed her cheeks out cutely and nodded. The girl knew that arguing with the one who creates her dances would be useless. They got into position again to start their practice over. While they were mentally linked, she still wasn't able to read his mind entirely and knowing the exact time he was going to move was something she'd only learn by practicing with her partner over and over again.
It was the same each time he had a new dance for her to learn, and wouldn't take long for her to perfect since they had all the time in the world to do their practice. Once she was capable of memorizing the movements, then she just needed to up her timing ability in comparison to his. And since he was ever the smart one - he didn't NEED to look at her since he could go by a mental count in his head to the music she provided to him a few days prior. Lucky him... After the first run through of the song, Sachiko could memorize the steps and recreate them for Tomohiro to stand and criticize more. But hey, she got it and that was all that mattered to her in the long run.

Next, her brother wished for her to work on the mechanical aspect of her movements. While they were technically all correct, he still didn't enjoy the fact she only looked like she was half-heartedly repeating movements she had seen before. Which given that they were... Well, that was another issue. He repeatedly informed her she needed to put more energy into her movements as well as her singing in order to round out the routine she wished to do. She often reported to him that it always exhausted her to put so much effort into something that wasn't an absolute necessity to create a good experience for the audience.
Tomohiro had to tell her before that the audience was to be visually stimulated as well as being stimulated by their sense of hearing. The feminine girl nodded and got into place without her brother by her side. As her singing began, she crossed her arm in front of her as her opposite leg swung out for the beginning move to the dance. The movements rolled into a strange walk in a circle while her body faced towards Tomohiro before she pointed out to her side and stuck her backside out for a cute pose.
The song seemed to require a lot of jumping from side to side and she kept getting mental quips about how she looked like a chunky rabbit who couldn't get two inches off the ground before getting tired. After yet another cute pose from the girl, Tomohiro stopped her and shook his head. "Remember when you punched my poster because you thought the lead singer was someone you knew in the Academy that bullied you? You nearly put a whole through the wall and you weren't even nine yet.
I want you to put that kind of energy into the fist when you push it outwards. When you jump, imagine you're playing that hopscotch game and you can't stay in the square too long or you'll lose. Be energetic, not loose. You'll end up being unable to dodge something if someone throws rotten fruit at you because your songs suck more than grandma's stew."
The girl gasped, and he knew he was going to regret mentioning anything about their grandma's cooking. He huffed and pointed to the spot next to him. "Again." She nodded and did as requested. It wasn't as bad as it had been previously, but he was well aware the girl was going to need a whole lot more practice than just what this amount of training was going to do for her. He had to admit, she was a quick learner compared to what most other people were capable of at her age. Then again, his sister had been practicing since she was little to become a star in her future. To others, her ability to dance was astounding, and adding the fact she sang like a pro was icing on the cake.

Agility Training Rank: Must be at least Genin Classification: Passive Time to complete: 5 posts Description: Working on ability to dodge and strike, the trainee can increase their agility slightly. ( Agility +.5) Range: Self
Content with her ability to react and put enough effort into her movements, he took to her side for their final run through of the song. The girl was at his left with her eyes closed as she prepped herself mentally with a quick run-through in her brain of all the movements and the timing needed in order to perform them perfectly. Now her only problem was keeping up with her brother's exact timing to the song as she sang and danced along with him. "Ready?" She opened her eyes with a strangely serious look on her face before a smile spread across her lips and she nodded to the imaginary crowd she pretended was before her.
It was the only time she ever seemed to get serious about what it was she was doing. He had faith this would be the last time he'd need to go over the song with her before she began to do it in her room on her own in order to sear the movements into her memory banks. The girl began to sing, and there was an instant changed in her demeanor as she aced every movement in time with her much taller and scarier looking twin who was currently bouncing at her side like a bunny before pretending to yawn like he was tired. Her movements mirrored him but in a much more girly way before the two laid on the ground and kicked their legs in the air like two girls having a sleep over.
Tomohiro attempted not to allow his masculinity to be harmed by this public display of ludicrous, but he couldn't keep the pink of his embarrassment out of his cheeks as his eyes cut to his new teammates in case they were watching him make a fool of himself in order to assist his sister in her practice. Without allowing his sister to sense anything was amiss, he instructed her to up the speed of their run up 1.5 times the normal speed. Her eyes widened at the prospect but didn't disagree as he counted to her before her voice kicked into overdrive and the two of them soared through the song and dance. He was quite proud that she matched every one of his movements without missing a single note within the song.
Tomohiro watched his sister out of the corner of his eye and noticed the girl had began to sweat. She was nearly at her limit for speed running through practice. "This is the finale. Dazzle the crowd, Sa-chan. Make them beg for more," he instructed with the smallest hint of a smirk before it cleared away and the two twirled their way into the next to last verse of the song they were performing. They hadn't been at their practice for long, but it was physically stressful and tiring compared to simply exhausting chakra.
If anything, their movements ventured more towards Taijutsu training than anything dealing with Chakra at all. The final verse came up, and Tomohiro could practically feel his sister's excitement as she pronounced every word perfectly even at nearly twice the speed it was meant to be sung. Her ability to deal with her brother's insane demands were what made her as good as she was today. His coaching in not only vocal aspects but choreography allowed her to perform at parties and even a few festivals in the past. She adored her brother for his hard work and making her work hard.

And then it came. The final verse that would mean the failure of a song or the blossoming of a crowd crying for more. She had the perfect end to a perfectly executed practice. As her last 'Tic Toc' rang from her microphone, she and her brother exploded in vibrant teal and powder pink petals and appeared to disappear from the area the two had been in to begin with. From behind their new Team Leader, Sachiko squealed in happiness that her brother understood what it was she was trying to do before she actually released the chakra into her microphone to allow it to happen. She jumped for joy and hugged his midsection before fluttering away to their practice site and twirling around. Tomohiro sighed and went to sit down beside his guitar. The two needed a bit of a break before doing anything more that required their ability to stand. Sachiko didn't protest as she sat in front of him.

"Hey, Tomo, can we do that link game again?" Sachiko asked as she nestled into a comfortable position with her knees against her brothers in a cross legged fashion. Her flamboyant skirt went to her knees and due to the loose sheer kind of material it was made from, it draped elegantly into her lap so that there was no concern about flashing people. Not that it was possible anyway since she wore bloomers beneath her skirts. Tomohiro thought about her offer with his eyes closed and raised his hands up after a few seconds to signal her that he'd accepted her offer.
She squeaked a little and raised her hands as well, facing her palms towards his before closing her eyes as well. While their knees touched, their hands were nearly a foot and a half apart. The two pushed excess chakra into their hands before secluding them into their individual finger tips. Inch by inch, they gradually allowed their chakra to venture from their skin like tendrils. As soon as one of the tendrils reached the other twins, they seemed to sew together to create a very strong attachment.
As soon as all ten fingers were attached to their partner, the twins opened their eyes and released the flow of chakra between them. It was a game they had figured out a long while ago. Before, one of Sachiko's tendrils of chakra had attempted to tie into one of Tomohiro's chakra lines at his neck. Being able to control the path of their chakra was only part of the fun of being able to play the Link Game. It was more about the fact that it allowed them to seep chakra into one another than the location of where it tied in at. It was just more fun to play with placement.

Moving back to work on his kekkei genkai justu Tiber wondered through the academy while still in bear form. Knocking over a few books and displays until he found a small section of dummies outside. Since there was no scrolls that spoke on his own keeki genkai here Tiber had to make do with what he remembered hearing and go on instinct. Now according to the stories the nomads of my tribe could swipe with deadly strength.. So I guess it's some kind chakra manipulation in the claw? Staring at his burly paw Tiber focused on funneling his energy into his right hand. [1/2] The very fur on his hand stood up on edge in response to his chakra flowing into it. The claws appeared as if they glistened in the sunlight, taking on quite the sinister appearance. Once he was certain he had it down Tiber rushed the defenseless dummy lashing out it with great force. The impact felt like cutting a butter with a hot knife. In fact the lack of resistance surprised even himself. Makes me wonder what this jutsu is capable of at higher levels.[2/2] Maul
Okay! So next on my list.. Hm if I remember the stories right the nomads had mastered the use of causing lacerations with their claws like beasts. With the same principle as the jutsu he had just learned Tiber focused his chakra again. However the precise control of funneling his chakra into his claws proved to be too difficult of his usual rough attitude that Tiber applied to everything. [1/4] Instead of grabbing huge chunks of chakra at once Tiber decided to use a small piece and try to manipulate it little by little. Mentally tearing it apart he went through each individual finger in an attempt to apply his chakra to his claws. [2/4] Apparently this concept proved at lot easier than trying to control whole oceans of chakra at once. with this new approach Tiber was able to gingerly apply the chakra to each claw, the glisten betraying how much sharper they were becoming. [3/4] After using the chakra to individually recreate and strengthen the structure of his claws Tiber decided that it would be a good time to test the extent of this ability. Since the first dummy had be smashed to splinters Tiber figured it best to move on to a new one made of a special material to built to simulate flesh. Using a simple uppercut maneuver Tiber lunged forward. The newly sharpened claws left deep cuts up and down the dummy. [4/4] Deep wounds (passive)
Lumbering around still in bear form Tiber kicked some wood splinters from his earlier training methods and moved onto his next jutsu. Taught to him more by his mother Maria. Utilizing his basic hunting skills Tiber caught a small rabbit, it's coal nose twinkling at being caught. Sorry little guy but I'm gonna need something alive for this one. He thought with a twinge of guilt as he made a small cut on the animals haunch. [1/5] Once this was done he sent the little creature running through the forests. Once more mustering his chakra he brought it to his nose, eyes, and even hearing. Within moments Tiber could feel his predatory senses heighten and the world around him begin to take on a new hue. [2/5] Though it wasn't perfect, at least not yet. With his new sensory information Tiber could barely keep his eyes focused let alone pick out the scent of blood. With little hope of taking it all in at once he closed his eyes to try and block part of the mess out. [3/5] It isn't about seeing, it's about what you can pick out. The one thought rang clarity throughout his mind and the noise started to die down. Tiber focused on the chattering of the nearby birds first picking out and focusing on their song, the tune ringing sweetly in his ears. When something waffled through his nose. Eyes darting open like a cat ready to pounce Tiber rushed through the grounds of bushed and trees. Past all of the training equipment With the smell of blood crossing him. [4/5] The scent darted every which way as the fear of being caught dug it's way into it's mind, but Tiber was for the most part able to follow. Tracking even as it sought to lose him through some underground tunnels. Jumping through the air Tiber purposely landed on the the exit of one of the holes to force the frightened creature back towards the academy grounds. The little rabbits head peeked out of it's home to check if it was safe. That was when he made his move. Slamming both paws down on either side of the animal Tiber exhaled a warm breath down the nape of it's neck. Fear must have paralyzed the tiny critter as it refused to moved, perhaps hoping that it's predator would give thinking it was dead. Tiber only gave a bear approximation of a smile and licked it's little head. Moving on back to the academy grounds the little rabbit immediately dived back inside it's hidey hole. [5/5] Hunting Grounds (passive)

Deciding to mix up his training with some variation Tiber decided it would be best to work on some muscle building. Since this was an academy for jutsu however, there wasn't much in the way of weights. Feh that just means I have to improvise! Morphing back to his human form Tiber wandered around the outskirts of the building in search of rocks, boulders, large branches. Anything that would cause strain to lift up. With dedicated effort it wasn't very hard to find a good pair of medium sized boulders. Attacking them with furiously Tiber struggled as he clawed at the biggest of the two. Heaving it up to chest he began racing around the complex trying to strain himself as much as possible. [1/5] Once his arms and legs felt like they were screaming with white hot pain Tiber tossed the rock aside with his left over energy. Settling on performing as many push ups until he collapsed in the dirt. Each exhale blowing up dust in his face, He forced himself onto his feet not wanting to give his body too much rest as he needed to break down his muscles as much as he could. [2/5] Wrapping his cracked fingers on the sturdy enough tree branch and curling his legs Tiber worked on his pull ups. Each time he had pulled himself up to the grooves in the branch the whole branch would shake. Causing some rather curious faces to peek out from their wooden home. Tiber smiled a little but keep to his workout. Sweat dripping from his brow as he reached the the fifties. [3/5] Letting himself drop from the tree with no more energy to give Tiber conceded to lay there on the ground, breathing heavier then he ever had before. Giving himself plenty of time to rest this time Tiber rolled onto his side with a groan, and shuffled his way to his makeshift weights. While holding one of each under his arms he stood in place and paced himself with squats. Building the burn in his legs to get them used to carrying an increased amount of weight. [4/5] A gleam in his eye shined through as his weight training came close to it's end. In a small whirlwind maneuver Tiber cast the rocks off to the side. A evil grin as he stared the mountain of a boulder that sat comfortably beside an oak. The mound of earth was obviously too large for someone on his level to lift, but he hadn't planned on lifting it. Charging it with every once of strength he had left in his bones Tiber slammed into the boulder, fingers digging so far into that they bled. He pushed it slowly up and over the small hill. The effort required made every inch of his body ignite on fire but he refused to give up, and after a few moments when he thought that he might be crushed Tiber finally pushed the boulder down the other side of the hill. A smile of satisfaction spread across his face. [5/5] Strength Training (Genin)
After giving himself some time to rest Tiber bounced straight back into the air with a burning passion in his eyes. Oh yeah! I'm ready for round two! Moving some brush aside Tiber made his way back to a an old trail he had found while hunting his rabbit friend. The stretch would be filled with roots and other kinds of snares. Perfect workout for a young genin who was wanting to work on his agility. After performing a few stretches to warm himself up Tiber dashed through the labyrinth of rocks and trees. [1/5] Tripping himself more than once on the rocky terrain. Tiber picked himself back up every time, refusing to let anything get him down for long. Though the trail wasn't that long as soon he started to get the hang of when the roots would pop up and how best to avoid them.With time it was like an everyday routine almost. Diving under the thorns and branches, leaping over the small crevasses, and even dodging the occasional rock fall that tumbled from the heights of the mountains nearby. [2/5] It wasn't actually long before the routine become too predictable though and Tiber set off to find new challenges when a wicked idea come to mind. So agility is all about dodging right? Alright then I think I have just the thing. Grabbing a few kunai from his bag Tiber closed his eyes while indiscriminately tossing them in the air above his head, then jumping to avoid getting impaled by his own weapons. The first few attempts ended with some cuts along his shoulder and arm, but did prove to be valuable training. [3/5] Over time Tiber began adding more and more blades to the mix of danger. A little spice for himself, until eventually he was dodging an almost constant barrage of kunai falling on him and tossing the ones that would fall back into the air. Thankfully only a few came close to taking out his eye but Tiber only smiled to himself. Seemingly enjoying putting himself in danger. [4/5] Unfortunately it wasn't long before this too became too complacent for him and Tiber collected his belongings in search of a new way to practice. While rubbing his chin in thought of what to do next he found a plank leaning against the academy wall undoubtedly for constructing a new wing or perhaps repairing existing walls. It made no difference to Tiber. Sneaking the plank away with an impish grin he ran back to the forest trail where one of the particularly large crevasses. Laying the wood beam across it like a bridge Tiber fell forward onto his palms and began walking across the makeshift platform. Even taking it one step further and performed a little dance on the woodwork. Or at least what could be considered a dance while waking on your hands anyway. [5/5] Agility Training (Genin)

Kumogakure l Genin l Jiongu l Puppeteer l Bloodline
[♥] Hisoka arrived back at the academy in no time his body having jumped over the fence he just stood in the open area that the academy offered. It was indeed a better place to train himself and it was less crowded. Walking to the near by wall he unwrapped the bandages from his hand and set the object down and against the wall. He then turned back facing the open space and opened the pouch along his waist line. Reaching down he grabbed several scrolls before spreading them out along the ground and repeating the process over a second time. Grabbing more scrolls and setting these in a pile; they would have to wait for later. He then focused he remembered doing it at the dojo so he could do it here, his chakra focused itself into the ground before a pile of sand was formed from the loose earth.
After having created a small pile of sand around him Hisoka looked around. Seeing as how it layered the ground now his hand made a couple of signs before he focused his chakra into the self made sand. Slowly it began to swirl around him flowing as if the wind were picking it up and blowing it around. But this wasn't the case the sand was moving because Hisoka wanted and willed it to move. Twisting and twirling around him it soon began to gather altogether forming into a solid live of running sand that continued to move and flow around his body. Slowly though it coursed itself through the air and all the sand that had once laid along the ground was now floating and being manipulated through the air.
Tech Learned: Sand Manipulation 5/5 post
Now that he had been able to focus the sand into the air he began to play around with it. Letting it fly and flow through the air as if being carried by the wind, soon though he caught an idea and it seemed wonderful to him. Moving and focusing the sand directly under his feet he imagined a plate or a surface of floor that he was standing on. Letting the sand harden he felt his feet rising up as well as his whole body. It was a weird feeling as if floating on air, the surface of the sand was strong enough to hold his body as he began to slowly float forward and back. Just small steps to begin with but soon Hisoka found himself floating right above the ground while the sand still swirled beneath him in a playful manner.

Falling back down to the ground his feet caught him while the sand dropped to the ground and returned itself to the earth. Hisoka then moved back to the area he had first started in and back to his scrolls, looking one of them over as he leaned over them he read the scribe writing and then turned facing the open space again. But as he began to practice he stopped and walked further into the area more so the middle of the area. His hands then moved forming the necessary hand signs before a wall of earth came shooting up from the ground all around him. It curved up and inward as it was summoned. Creating a dome like structure over top of himself. Looking at the wall he had just formed he moved walking towards it and placing his hand on it. This was a little better than the wall he had made earlier but it never was bad to have some defense for ones self.

[♥] After a while Hisoka moved back to his puppet looking at it as it laid against the ground his mind now thinking back while he stared. Thinking back to the insight that his father gave him while he went home to gather his supplies he raised his hands focusing himself picturing his chakra flowing across the area and connecting to the puppet. He formed it slowly into small thin lines before they shot out from each of his finger tips and connected to the puppet. "Ha!"
Tech Learned: Chakra no Ito [ Chakra Threads ]
After having connected the strings to the puppet he began to try and lift the puppet, to make it move like a person. The puppet came rising up as the wrappings around its body loosened. Hisoka wondered why it wasn't working why it wasn't moving like a puppet should but only like a rock or a dead weight. Pushing more of his chakra into the threads he began to try and move the arm. It slowly began to move up before fully extending the puppets hand then moved up and down rotating around as the arm began to bend. The more time that Hisoka spent with it the chakra threads just felt natural as if he were moving another person.
Tech Learned: Ningyoumawashi no jutsu: Ichi [ Puppet operator Technique One ]
Now to preform or attempt his next technique that his father taught him he released the chakra threads from the puppet. Sitting down he stared looking at the puppet as it now lay down on the ground. Each arm resting by it's puppets body he thought to himself before crossing his legs over one another. Thinking of his house he though for a moment remembering the symbol along his wall his father had painted on there once he gave him the puppet. Then all of a sudden in a puff of white smoke the karasu puppet disappeared. Looking up from where he had been focusing his hands still left in the last symbol that he had signed.
Tech Learned: Unsummon
Sitting there Hisoka began to quickly move his hands signing away like he had when the puppet was first dispersed. But this time nothing happened looking a bit puzzled he leaned forward his arms crossing over one another while he thought to himself. Why hadn't it worked and did he do everything right? Shaking his head he started at it again after unfolding his arms. His chakra focused on a portion of grass in front of himself before finishing his hand signs. An like before a puff of white smoke appeared for a moment before blowing away and there lay the karasu puppet his dad had made for him. A smirk now rested along his face while he looked at what he had done. The first few steps towards becoming a puppet master.

Kumogakure Chakra: 285
xxxxxxxxxxTomohiro watched closely to his sister's chakra levels and noticed they were dipping a little lower than he'd like as it flowed freely between them. "You need to work on your chakra. You're weak." Knowing her brother meant weak in a helpful way, she nodded and waited to hear how he'd like her to practice this time. He looked around and saw that the bear boy had disappeared from the area. The male piece of the duet pair had last seen the boy in his furry appearance and figured he went to go find a stream somewhere to catch lunch.
"Let me see you go over the handsigns. If you watch your technique, you'll lose less chakra when performing Jutsu.The more practice, the tighter your form will be." His sister nodded and began to go through the handsigns in front of him as he watched intently. There didn't seem to be much wrong with how she was doing them, but the speed at which she was going through them was a little haphazard and it looked like she could poke her own eye out at any time with a slip of her finger. "Slow down some. There isn't a rush for this."
Sachiko sighed and nodded before slowing to what was essentially a crawl in order to make her brother happy. It was hard for anyone to realize that she was the one who was born first since he always doled out orders like he was the Kage himself. She didn't mind though. The brown haired diva-in-training knew very well that he was the smarter of the pair and relinquished control to the one who knew how to use his time and brain to the best of his abilities. The little doll was happy singing backup to his intelligence.
Every now and then he'd stop her and run his hand along her fingers to show her the flow of the chakra she should be feeling at that point. If what she felt was different than what he was explaining, she would stop and try to do it once again in order to get it right. It wasn't as demanding as their dance practice, but this kind of training was exhausting as well. If not physically, mentally. "So, what do you think of the cutie girls we have on our team now?" she asked with an innocent smile on her face.
Tomohiro tried to ignore her and continue to teach his sister how to control her chakra better, but was shut down near instantly as she removed her hands from him until he gave an answer. "What does it matter?" he asked. The boy's cheeks were pink with embarrassment of his sister's questioning of his tastes. What business was it of her's in the first place? One was annoyingly quiet and the other was older than him by who knew how many years.

The glitzy female gasped and covered her mouth with her delicate hands. "You like the Mirabelle girl don't you?!" she asked frantically into his head. Her excitement seemed to pound her words into his skull causing him to groan. His reaction warranted a quick apology as she got back to her training to show her sorrow for causing such a reaction. "She is very cute, but she's a bad match for you," the small girl warned.
Tomohiro huffed. "And why would that be?" His question got a droll stare from Sachiko that really made him curious as to her reason. As it turns out, it was a stupid one. "Duh, the girl uses a flute. How lame and overused is that instrument? She's the basic of the basic and so not worth your time and money. Go for someone with a better fashion sense too. She probably got her clothes from a thrift shop. Or even worse, they might be hand-me-downs," she prattled as her hands continued to work on her handsigns.
While his sister was normally the nicest of the duo, she always had a knack for becoming vicious when it came to any girls around him. And even worse when they didn't meet her fashion requirements. Maybe that was the reason the boy had never had an actual girlfriend before? At this rate, he'd be fifty and still be unmarried and probably living with his sister. A shiver ran down his spine at the prospect as he critiqued her flow once again. Sachiko needed to get her mind off his relationship status and start working on her own things before he threatened to hide her sewing equipment again.
Just the thought running across his mind got her attention immediately and she reached over and punched his arm. She was weak, and it didn't do much, but it got his attention to turn his thoughts somewhere other than trying to punish her. It never really worked anyway. Every time he tried hiding something, she would burrow into him about it until he unwittingly thought of the place he'd hidden the object and give her the information she needed. "You should go for someone hot like Miss Miyuki. I don't think she's that much older than you and I didn't see a ring on that finger of her's~" she chimed happily as she completed yet another set of handsigns before reviewing yet again.
His face nearly as pink as his hair, Tomohiro got up from the floor and started to walk away from Sachiko's position. Apparently her talking about him getting with their new Team leader was as far as he could handle her teasing. The male Anzo made his way to the library of the Academy that held a vast knowledge of Jutsu that he may find interesting. Sachiko sighed and continued her training until she felt comfortable enough to stop. Without her brother to show her the mistakes she was making, she couldn't tell one way or the other on how to fix anything.
