TATSUYA MIYAKI
When it feels like a kick in the teeth, I can take it.
Throw your stones and you won't see me break it.
- Location: Outside the hole in the ground.
Mood: Confident
Ulterior Motives: Saving my World
Thoughts: "What is this... I don't even..."
Pure excitement flowed through Tatsuya’s body as he looked out upon the vastly snowy landscape that he had been forced to call home for the last 10 months. In the time he spent in his cave he found out many things about himself, he discovered true peace within his soul and he found his true ambitions. However, he understood his means of reaching his hopeful end would be considerably eased if he took his last two months to focus on increasing his strengths and techniques. He had a good idea of what all he wished to master but with his limited time he had few options, the best was to learn the shadow clone jutsu so that he could split up and learn multiple jutsu at the same time. Granted there was a chance he would fail at some points and lose precious time, however, he had to at least attempt it, if he didn’t try then there was absolutely no chance of his success, plus, if he could come to control his own soul and reach the peak in his own physical abilities then there was nothing he couldn’t accomplish as long as he put his mind to it and focused deeply on it.
With his gleeful state of mind and hopeful expression the boy immediately went into his training. He pulled his hands together to quickly surge his chakra together into his gut, then he slowly began dividing the chakra into half and finally he performed the hand seals needed for the shadow clone jutsu. He was hopeful, maybe he would be lucky enough to get the difficult jutsu on his first try, it would have fed into his ego and the power trip he was totally flying on at the moment, however, the hope was dashed momentarily as a small puff of smoke appeared next to him. Curiosity set in as the smoke took its merry time dissipating, but when it did Tatsuya began to wish it hadn’t; as the smoke cleared the grotesque figure of a short plump Tatsuya greeted the original with a happy smile and sweating glands.
“Hiya!” The chubby figure greeted happily with a chuckle, the little clone seemed happy enough, but he would be more than useless if Tatsuya wished to train, the pudgy thing looked as if he would rather sit in the cave and snack up on all of what remained of Tatsuya’s rations than learn how to further use lightning jutsu, nor did he look like he would be an amble sparring partner for advancing the his seven sword dance form. No this… thing would be useless. “Umm, do you have anything to eat? I’m starving, ooo can I have that lizard?” The pudgy boy spoke with a definite squeak of delight as he pointed at the large lizard Aoiro had become, he must have grown another couple feet, less than he had in the previous year but for what he started out as it was fairly impressive.
“No, you can’t eat Aoiro. What you can do is just poof away, you were obviously a mistake. I can’t use you at all in training.” Tatsuya spoke semi-cruelly to the alternate version of himself, however, since it was towards himself it couldn’t be taken as mean, could it? No, it was more along the lines of self loathing, but with some unique circumstances. Once he spoke he realized he should have chosen his words more carefully, for once his words exited his mouth the plump child immediately fell to the ground and began wailing loudly.
“B-B-BUT I-I-I JUST G-G-G-GOT HERE!!! I-I’m hun-hungry! I-I don’t want to-to go back yet!” The small wide child was quickly becoming more and more of a pain, and to make matters worse he was dead set on staying. To which Tatsuya decided that if he wasn’t going to go on his own he would have to remove him from the world himself, and with each passing moment he was beginning to realize that the latter option was probably going to be used. Tatsuya continued to stand over the blubbering clone and waited patiently for the tears and whimpering to cease so he could tell his clone to disperse, however when the calmness came so did an unexpected occurrence; the clones clean white pants were quickly stained with a disgusting shade of yellow.
“…” Tatsuya stared at the stain for a moment while gathering his thoughts on what had transpired in the last minute, he had attempted the shadow clone jutsu, failed, and again failed at forcing the clone to disperse. The clone threw a fit, and when he finally calmed down he- “Did you just piss yourself?” The young adult asked calmly while still staring at his plump clone. He had no idea what kind of situation he was thrown into, nor did he wish to learn why the clone lacked the basic human abilities to control its bladder. No, he didn’t even want to think that of his clone, he secretly hoped that the clone was somehow smuggling some sort of food that made the stain, though the odds of that happening were terribly slim. “Well did you? Cause if you did that’s kind of gross and pathetic,” Tatsuya continued towards he clone.
“Y-y-yes, b-but it was your fault!” The clone responded obviously growing enraged at the calloused behavior of his creator. The clone was so enraged that he attempted to jump to his feet and attack Tatsuya, though due to his inability to jump properly, or walk fast for that matter the clone’s quick movement was resorted to a pathetic looking roll along the snow, spreading the yellow stain further onto the ground. The clone had the audacity to blame Tatsuya for its own weak bladder? No, that would not be allowed if the clone wished to continue its existence. So with a scowl that could kill it dead the original bent his knee and pulled a strong kick back into the clone’s face, which in turn exploded into a puff of smoke. So much for mastering the jutsu on the first try, oh well, since a majority of the chakra he lost was returned to him he would easily be able to retry the shadow clone jutsu, only this time he would have to put forth a little bit more focus.
So, he took a little more time to draw his chakra instead of quickly bursting it out, and he took a little more time to take care with dividing his chakra. Once Tatsuya had a mental picture of exactly what he wanted in his head he pulled his chakra out along with the proper hand seals, and the resulting puff of smoke seemed a lot more correct. At least in height and width, if there were any other types of deformities Tatsuya would have to try again. Though as the smoke cleared the original ninja found himself smiling, it was the right height, and was fairly cut with his muscles, just like Tatsuya himself. Maybe he was able to get it on the second try. Although it would be safer to make sure he actually perfected it and not just appear to get it and it wind up being wrong on the battlefield.
With a close eye the boy analyzed the clone, he lifted its arms and checked in nearly every possible hidden area and such to make sure everything was proportioned correctly, which it was for the most part, granted there were small differences but they would not be detrimental to what he was needing to do. “Well it looks like you turned out perfect!” Tatsuya spoke confidently to his clone, perhaps too confidently, because as soon as the clone opened its mouth to speak Tatsuya realized where he had screwed up…
“Well howdy there! Shewt, I sure am glad you think I’m perfect; you don’t look half bad yourself. So are you out here all by yourself or are you just lost?” The clone’s speech was working, but at the same time it made Tatsuya want to beat every ounce of chakra out of it to keep it from speaking again; the clone’s accent was just too much for the young man to handle, it was both annoying and foreign to him and in all honesty it encouraged violence towards small children. To make matters worse it wouldn’t shut up. “Now you look more messed up than a badger after a fight with a big ol’ bear, what sort of hijinx have you been up to boy?”
“…” Once again Tatsuya grew silent due to his clone, at least this one looked okay, that meant he had corrected at least one issue with his previous attempt. Now all that remained was the correction of the voice, which if it came as easy as correcting the appearance then he perfecting the jutsu would take no time. First thing came first though; he needed to get rid of the southern draw that stood in front of him. “I think I was mistaken, you have some faults that would be detrimental to my survival in a battle, you are gonna have to disperse so I can get my chakra back so I can continue trying to perfect this. Thank you for not whining like the last one.”
“Awww shewt, its okay little buddy, I’ll be heading on my way then, good luck with your ju-whatsit, and all.” With a much more polite exit than his predecessor the very southern Tatsuya clone dispersed in a similar puff of smoke as he appeared with. He was nice enough and had a personality that was spot on matching Tatsuya’s, but with the alien dialect he would serve no purpose beyond training, which, in this case Tatsuya would have much preferred a perfected clone for the training. Anyway, with the smoke filling the small area the young man was granted the chakra that lay within the dispersed clone, which brought him back up to near 100 percent. Getting back to his training Tatsuya had a sort of road map of what needed to be done for his progress with the clones thus far, he pulled all the chakra he had at hand and slowly began dividing it in half while he focused deeply on the outward appearance of the clone he was wanting to call forth, once he believed he had the outer appearance down he moved on to the personality, he needed a clone so close to his mindset so it would be easy to get it to do what he wanted, and finally he focused on the voice and other senses. The boy focused intensely trying to put his own essence into the clone’s make-up so that it would be made properly without any hiccups.
Once Tatsuya felt confident about his collection of specifications he performed the proper hand seals for the shadow clone jutsu and instantly a puff of smoke filled the space beside the Udai ninja. Immediately Tatsuya was able to smile at the fact that the puff of smoke was roughly the right height and the correct width, so far so good. As the puff began to disperse Tatsuya’s grin grew, it looked spot on, the hair was all there and in the right places, his legs were perfect length, and his facial expression was perfect. “Speak.” Now for the moment of truth, if it spoke with the right voice and with the correct accent the jutsu was performed perfect.
Before the clone spoke however, he let out a small chuckle as if to express that ‘he had this,’ “hey Tat, how you doing?” The clone hit the nail on the head, the pitch was amazing, the rhythm in the clone’s voice was impeccable, he had done it, the clone was perfect.
“I’m doing well now, how are you doing?”
“I was getting annoyed that the large one got out before me, and pretty confused about the last one.” With that the clone raised his hand to which Tatsuya rose his own, performing a high five with himself in accomplishment.
