The Amekage stands in his personal dojo with his two children.
"Ok you two it is time to start learing the clan's tiajutsu style, the Snake Hand. First we will work on the forms, and then application. Don't worry we will start slowly to let you all adjust to it, since this is the first time you have ever done something like this." Spoke Makai Yakuzain to his son and daughter. It was true that Rihan, and his sister had never actually done any form of taijutsu, but they had spent many hours watching others use it, so they had a basic understanding of what they would be doing.
Makai showed them the stances of the beginning of the Snake Hand style, and watched as they practiced it. He could instantly see that his daughter easily learned the stances, but Rihan seemed to be out of his element. After a long day of practicing the Snake Hand, Makai decided to begin teaching them the basics of chakra control, something that they would need greatly if they wished to use the Snake Fist.
"Ok you two I am going to unlock your chakra, and let you guys get a feel for it, but do not worry, it does not hurt." Spoke Makai, as he placed his chakra infused hands on both of the sixteen and seventeen year olds. Instantly his daughter, and Rihan's chakra burst forward. Rihan's looked like the average light blue cloak that quickly faded, but his sisters was different. His had a strange tint of green to it, and it was huge. It was visible , and stayed like this for a good few minutes. This lead Makai to believe Rihans sister must have had giant reserves. He knew they were strange, but he never expected this. When he looked at his sons chakra path ways, and realized that it was because the chakra was so thick that it only appeared small.
"Ok you two I am going to show you an exercise that will help you use the snake hand with much more effectiveness. It is called the leaf balancing, floating, or sticking exercise depending on what you do with it. The first step is to make it stick to your forehead, then you will learn to make it float, then you will make it float but in complete stillness, and finally you will make it spin around your head." Spoke Makai. He could see that his kids were a little overwhelmed, but he could also see the fire burning in their eyes to succeed.
At first they had problems getting the leaf to stick to their foreheads. They both had naturally good control over there chakra, and this helped them in learning the leaf balancing exercise. By the age of twelve and fourteen they had both mastered the leaf balancing exercise, and were trying to execute the snake hand.It started the same every day;with Makai lifting stone slabs from the ground and the children concentrating chakra around there hands.Slowly but surely a snake-like pattern began to form around there arms. Each one would then strike their slab with a palm strike to leave an imprint. Were his sisters imprints on the slab were detailed and clearly resembling snakes,Rihans were less detailed and looked more like worms.
