Academy Teacher Adjunct (Mission/Training)

Ikki was sitting at his desk and instantly he heard a murmur of voices to the general area of the left side of the classroom. He instantly turned his head to see who was talking, but was unable to see anyone with their mouths open. These kids were good, Ikki started to think, before hearing another murmur from the right side of the classroom. His head moved so quickly he almost broke it.

Ikki again couldn’t see anyone speaking. Ikki suddenly got an idea, he had seen a technique in the jutsu scroll he was training from today that may help him out. He pulled the scroll from his pocket and unrolled it and started to read. Ikki again could hear speaking, more of it now that Ikki wasn’t watching the classroom. Ikki shifted the scroll downward and instantly the speaking stopped, Ikki kept reading.

The boy read the title of the jutsu, which was called “Hell’s Ears” Ikki would have to concentrate his chakra along his ears and then perform handseals, which ended with him holding the Boar handseal. Ikki would then have to close his eyes and concentrate on where the sound was coming from. He would then instantly be able to know where the sound was coming from and what that sound was.

So if anyone were talking in the classroom, Ikki would be able to hear exactly where they were in the classroom and exactly what they were saying. Ikki knew that this would be a great technique to use both in and out of battle. Ikki set about learning it, he rolled up the scroll and placed it in front of him on the desk, he leaned forward and kept his hands under his desk to learn the handseals.

Ikki couldn’t show the students he was performing handseals, thy may jump to the wrong conclusions and then where would he be. The boy would look down every few moments to note down the handseal that he had just created; he couldn’t just earn the handseals of a new jutsu just by performing them he had to look at them as well. After a few minutes of testing, Ikki looked up at the clock to see exactly how much time had passed, he saw that only ten minutes had passed and that he still had a lot of time to go.

Then he suddenly heard children speaking again, just a low murmur. Ikki snapped back down from looking t the clock and threw his head in the direction of the speaking, but he couldn’t see anyone. Ikki had to complete this jutsu quickly; he was getting the feeling they would be getting brave enough to start asking each other about answers for the test.

After about another five minutes, Ikki had learned the handseals. He would now have to find out exactly how much chakra to use, he had never used a sound technique before and he would have to try it out a few different times before he got the right amount. Ikki first started with the same amount of chakra he had used to grow out his Hair, which was small.

He performed the handseals, held the Boar handseal and then gathered the chakra for the jutsu; he sent it up to his ears and then closed his eyes. All of this was done hidden from the students, so when the students saw the teacher had closed his eyes they started to speak. Ikki could instantly tell that this jutsu was working, he heard two students in the back of class comment on how their old teacher was bad, but this new one was even worse.

Then Ikki heard another group of two students who were telling each other the answer for the twentieth question on the test. Ikki smiled and then opened his eyes; he knew exactly what he had to do. He grabbed a red pen from the desk drawer and first walked to the two students who were cheating, Ikki wanted to scare them but he didn’t have the heart to fail them.

Ikki walked up to them and marked both of their tests with a “-10” so they couldn’t get higher than an 89 out of 100. Then he walked to the back of the class and told the students there that they shouldn’t speak that way about their teacher. Ikki smiled and walked back to his desk. He hoped all of the students had learned their lesson.

It had been one hour since Ikki had learned the Hell’s Ears technique, which meant that so far the test had taken about one hour and fifteen minutes, which meant there was only forty-five minutes left in the test. Ikki hadn’t heard anymore talking, but he knew as soon as he let his guard down, he would be hearing more of it going on. Then he saw it, the chance these kids would have to take advantage of him again, a young girl in the classroom stood up, looked at Ikki and then quickly took her seat.

She furiously wrote something down on her paper, and then stood up again. She quickly walked to Ikki’s desk and set down the paper before quickly moving back to her desk. Ikki started to grade it slowly, and at once heard speaking again. Ikki would have to do something about that, he couldn’t allow the children to try and cheat on their tests. Ikki unrolled the jutsu scroll he had with him once more to try and find a technique that might help him out.

He read about a technique called “Sonar,” and moved past it, that wasn’t what he wanted. He then came to a technique that was called “Ventriloquism,” which he thought may be perfect for this situation. Ikki quickly read it over and rolled up the scroll to begin to practice it. Ikki went over the jutsu’s description as he started to learn the handseals; again he did the handseals so that the desk was blocking his movements.

Ikki pretended he was still looking over and grading the test in front of him, he went over the jutsu, which told him he would need to perform the handseals and then hold the Ram handseal. This was very similar to his Hair Jutsu. Ikki would then have to gather chakra along his mouth and speak a few words, no more than six. He would then be allow to throw these words in any direction, so that the words could come from anywhere he wanted them to without him actually being there.

Ikki thought he could do that every time someone spoke, without him even standing up to walk over. That would scare the children very quickly and hopefully it would stop them from talking and help them get down with their tests. Now that the young ninja was finished with going over the description, he knew exactly what to do. The first thing would be to learn the handseals, which was always the first thing someone did when they were learning a jutsu, Ikki had done it many times before.

The next thing to do would be to figure out exactly how much chakra to use to perform this jutsu, and finally he would have to do the jutsu. Throughout all of his planning, Ikki had almost learned all of the handseals. The only problem with that was that he kept reverting back into performing the handseals for the Hair Extension technique, he couldn’t seem to differentiate between the two jutsu.

So he stopped all learning and started again, staring at his hands as he performed them. He heard talking, and that only made him try to learn the handseals faster so that he could quickly perform this jutsu and stop the kids from cheating. After about a minute, Ikki was finally able to master the handseals, ending with the holding of the Ram; now he was ready to move onto the actual jutsu.

Ikki would have to figure out how much chakra to use. He had just learned a Sound technique an hour before so he figured since they were both the same rank that they used about the same amount of chakra. Ikki upped the chakra just a bit to make sure it would work. The young ninja performed the handseals once and then gathered up his chakra, he did so from around his whole body, the river of light that made up his system.

Ikki gathered the exact same amount of chakra he had used for the Hell’s Ears and then added in just a bit more. Ikki was sure that this would work, when he molded this chakra together Ikki sent it up to his mouth. Ikki then formulated the message he would be sending. He heard a few children talking to his left so he sent the words that way. Ikki said. “Stop Talking Or Else You Fail,” exactly six words.

They bounced off of the left wall and then spread out to move into the children’s’ ears. At once, all of the children turned to their right, hearing something they didn’t quite understand. Ikki performed the jutsu once more, adding just a bit more chakra to the mix, he sent it to the other side of the room, and Ikki could tell from the reactions of the students that they had heard exactly what he said to them.

Ikki performed the jutsu once more and sent the sounds to the back wall where thy bounced off and made it seem like Ikki was behind them. Ikki saw them all perk up and instantly throw their heads around to see if anyone was behind them, they saw no one. When they looked back at their Adjunct, Ikki smiled.
