Mishi Nijuurasen no Jutsu (Bug Double Helix Technique)
Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: The user extends both arms, then crosses them, then shooting out bugs that begin to form a double helix type attack. This double helix then splits, allowing the user to attack two opponents at once.
Special: Rat, Horse, Tiger, Dragon, Ram
Drawback: The bugs have trouble keeping up with a moving ninja when in this solid form.
Description: The user performs the handseals and then extends both arms before cross thing suddenly across their chest. Bugs then rush out of the user’s arms and move upwards before they start crisscrossing, forming a double-helix. The helixes then split apart, each one chasing down a different opponent. This can be used on a single ninja to attack him from two directions at once as well.
Limit: Kikaichu no Jutsu, Nibainarabi Mushi Ryuuki

Once more Chiro was off into the woods, hoping the Female Kikaichu he had released would find some suitable prey. As he moved through the tops of the trees, he contemplated the new jutsu he had just performed. It seemed fairly exceptional, but with all things there was room for improvement. He was hoping to get a chance to improve this technique on whatever prey he located next. Chiro stopped on a large branch, sniffing the air. It seemed like a kikaichu had found another target. Chiro took off in that direction, the bugs within him stirring excitedly.

When Chiro arrived at the spot the kikaichu had indicated, he couldn't believe his eyes. Twenty-five feet below him was a massive brown bear. It walked around lazily, searching the underbrush for food most likely. Chiro began contemplating the best way to take this monster down. Not only to satisfy his training and the kikaichu, but because a bear this close to the village was pretty bad. However, it didn't appear to be heading in that direction, so he would take his time with this.

Just like the last training, Chiro gathered a decent amount of chakra. This technique required more than the last he trained, so he didn't want to under perform. Satisfied with the amount he had a hold of, Chiro next began the seals, again focusing on the speed in which they were performed. Once this was done he began the technique. The bugs erupted from his arms, energized by the thought of such a large amount of chakra. He began the technique in earnest, pushing the bugs toward the bear, then twisting his arms to cross them into the helix. And instead of splitting the two strands as he did with the deer, he let the helix continue on its path of destruction, seeing as how he was above the bear. 'Alright guys, time to eat.' Chiro smirked as the spinning helix collided with the brown bear below him.

Satisfied with a job well done, Chiro stood up, brushing off his pants. That is, until he heard a blood-curdling roar eminate from below him. The tree shook as though it were in an earth quake, and the Aburame fell to the earth, crashing into the underbrush. Luckily he knew how to take a fall, and upon landing, quickly rolled to his right to avoid the crushing arms that descended upon the area he had just been in moments ago.

Now on his feet, Chiro looked at the enraged beast before him. His attack had been successful, but he underestimated the strength of this bear. The kikaichu were on him, eating away, but it wasn't enough. And while he was still contemplating his next move, the bear charged.

Chiro was quick on his feet, however, and formed handseals and gathered chakra faster than he had done in very long while. Frustrated and annoyed, he yelled as the bear charged, only for the bear to run into a large wall of Kikaichu - the Mushikabe no Jutsu. However, this technique wouldn't hold a bear back for long, and once more began his new technique.

Channeling the chakra, Chiro began the handseals, pouring his rage into the kikaichu as they issued from the holes in his body. The bear began tearing down the wall, covering the area and himself with Kikaichu. As the creature did this, so to was Chiro finishing his technique. "Kill this fucker. Mishi Nijuurasen no Jutsu!" The bear crashed through the rest of the wall, running at Chiro as a double helix of kikaichu hit it right in the face. The force of the blast stopped the bear cold, and it toppled over, exhausted from it's excessive use of energy in the previous attacks. Succumbing to the darkness, the bear's eyes closed as the kikaichu descended upon its body, devouring the life force as they did.

Chiro doubled over, realizing he had been holding his breath. 'Well, I think that's enough training for one day.' Chiro let the bugs finish there meal, releasing all of them to enjoy the feast. When they were done, he recalled them, and left for the village as the sun slinked down beneath the tree line.

"Motion is Tranquility..."

Chiro walked along the road, hands in his pockets, not sure of what he wished to do at the moment. He had been in a funk of sorts, not able to determine any new techniques to train or attempt any new missions. So for now he wandered Kusagakure aimlessly as the sun sank below the horizon. As he neared the center of town, he heard the unmistakable sound of fighting coming from nearby. Curious, Chiro turned to investigate. In front of him stood a square looking building, with a sign that read "Yasashii Dojo" over the entrance. Intrigued by this dojo which he had never before encountered, Chiro peeked through the sliding door. What he saw amazed him.

An older woman stood in the back of a large room, watching the spar between the other two. This woman was obviously the sensei, she stood with an authority and intensity that only a master of her art could have. The two fighting were in the middle of a large area with clearly designated boundaries. One of them, a man, was engaging his opponent with a serious of attacks that Chiro couldn't comprehend. He seemed to be an unstoppable force, something that could not be contained. He remained cool and collected, as unstoppable as a mighty glacier. But it was his opponent, a woman, who amazed Chiro the most.

She stood against this glacier with grace unknown to the Aburame. As he moved, she didn't. It was as though she had not given him permission to touch her, and so he simply didn't. She did not avoid his attacks, she informed him with a cold tone that he would simply not be striking her. Chiro pictured her movements as snow, adrift in the wind, moving and not moving and never staying the same. It was beautiful and mind boggling. As he watched, the sensei looked toward the door, seeing Chiro observe the fight. The older woman motioned for the two to stop, and then sighted the intruding Aburame.

"I'm assuming by the intense look of awe on your face that you are unfamiliar with the ways of Gintsuki no Seikou Mia?" She regarded him with a look of moderate disapproval. Chiro wasn't quite sure how to respond to this. He walked fully into the Dojo, being sure to stand on the mat right in front of the door so as not to dirty the floor, and then bowed low.

"I apologize for my intrusion Sensei. Please forgive me." He hoped this would abate the anger, for this place had given Chiro a new motivation. He wanted to learn this style, this Gintsuki no Seikou Mai! He waited patiently for the Sensei's response, hoping to be accepted here. The older woman looked at the Aburame male for a few moments, and then nodded slightly. She motioned for the other two to be adjourned, then started walking into a back room. She halted by the door, waiving Chiro into the Dojo.

Hurriedly, Chiro removed his shoes and followed after the Sensei, feeling both excitement and anticipation about where this would take him along his path of a Shinobi. He walked through the open door the older woman had left and entered into a room about half the size as the sparring room. The Sensei sat facing the far back wall, and with her right hand, motioned Chiro to join her. He walked up and took his place on the mat beside her.

"This Dojo was the creation of one of the seven great Masters - Master Natsume Rika. She established this Dojo even before the village of Kusagakure as you know it today existed. Our art is one that few can learn, and even fewer can master. What you saw in the sparring room was as near to mastership as this Dojo has ever seen. Why do you deserve a chance to learn this art?" The question was laced with enough ambiguity to make Chiro hesitant in answering. What was he thinking, barging into a Dojo and expecting to be allowed to learn?

"Sensei..." Chiro began, when he was interrupted.

"You will refer to me as Master Alyss. Continue."

"Alyss-sama, I would not begin to think I deserve to learn this art form. However, as of late, I find myself restless, unable to focus on training such mundane things as Ninjutsu, or rudimentary Taijutsu. I long for something that will give me the passion I had when I was first learning to be a Shinobi. What I witnessed in the sparring chamber was moving. Never before have I seen a fight...no, a dance between two people like that. The man, he was as unstoppable as a mighty glacier, the woman as graceful as the drifting snow." Chiro would have continued describing the fighters as thus, when a sharp gasp from his left caused him to cease his discourse. What had been said, that could cause such a reaction?

"To think...that one with no training would be so quick to notice the basic principles of the Delicate Dance of the Silver Moon. Perhaps there is something about you." Master Alyss stood, turning toward the slightly stunned Chiro. "I think you will do. Return here tomorrow morning one hour after dawn. Do not be late." With that, she dismissed him, and Chiro bowed, assuring her he would be here. He left quickly, rushing home to get to bed. The sun had long since passed beyond the horizon, and Chiro needed to get home quickly if he hoped to make his morning appointment.
