It was a bright, sun shiny morning in the Hidden Stone Village, Neitto arose from his bed and quickly got dressed. Rushed downstairs and out the door, without so much as a hello to anybody home, he did not notice. As he runs out across a narrow bridge that connects his house to another mountain. Once in ranged he began jumping up along the mountain side, a mostly safe pass used as a short cut. At the top was another bridge that connected to a mountain side with a rope bridge at the end that leads up to a wide open area filled with various animals and vegetation. A small stream was also near by, flowing with clean water he kneels down to cupped his hands to catch some water. He quickly sipped what water he caught, stood up turned. Looking over the mountain side he could see a good chunk of the village.

He nodded his head and spoke softly, "Today is my day." He turned around and took a few steps, then back around to face the village. He planted his feet firmly and relaxed his body, and raised his hands to make the necessary hand seals. "Tiger, Boar, Horse" he recalled was the order for this jutsu. He brought his hands together to perform the three seals "Dekiagari Hana!" he exclaimed. He could feel his chakra start to give off a faint scent as he concentrated. Then he started hearing a quite buzz coming from behind him. "I did it!" he thought to himself, he quickly turned hoping to see swarm of bees. To his surprise there was only a handful of bee's flying past him. "They did not even notice me.. I must not have used the correct amount of chakra." he thought to himself.

Without hesitation he rushed creating seals again, and forcing his chakra harder this time. After a few seconds, he began to smell something awful. "Ugh, sick! Too much chakra and toss fast makes it smell sour." He raised his palm to his face and brought them together softly. He then stretched out both arms, then back, then legs to help relax his body. Facing back towards the village, he closed his eyes and cleared his thoughts. Standing firm, he swiftly brought his hands together, focusing more chakra this time, he makes the three seals. This time he could definitely smell the sweet scent his chakra was creating. Before he took notice several bees started gathering around him. "That's it, you're doing it!" he thought to himself smiling wide. But almost as soon his smile reached full length, the bee's left as quickly as they arrived.

He got too cocky, distracted by his near accomplishment, and lost his concentration on the jutsu before it was actually finished. Sure the bee's were able to detect the scent and follow it, but not long enough to fully bring them under his control. He was done playing games, taking a more strict pose, he performed the seals and started weaving his chakra. "Don't stop until you're sure this time!" Holding the final seal, horse, he close his eyes to avoid any distractions. He continued to keep his mind empty, free from any thought that may deter him from his goal. His hands slightly shaking, his chakra flowing through him better than ever, he could practically taste the aroma he was emitting. He then slowly turned out to see small swarms buzzing around towards him.

Even though some bees arrived, he knew that he could do better. The jutsu ended the bees he called fluttered away. He shook off the feeling of failure, It's been hours and he's only managed to call forth small amount of bees. If he were to be a proper ninja, and member of the Kamizuru clan, he had to keep up his practice until he reaches its full effectiveness. He shook his head to shake of his negative thoughts and began forming hand seals again. Molding his chakra into the correct scent with enough potency to call call even more bees to him. When the jutsu activated he saw..

When he activated the jutsu he saw nothing out of the ordinary, nor heard the sound of incoming insects. Neitto raised his hand to his head and gave it a firm scratch. He walked about the forest area to clear his thoughts and doubts. He came upon a tree with a large beehive handing from a tree branch. Neitto also noticed the several flowers, he plucked one and gave it a sniff, perhaps this was the smell sweet scent he had to use. Sitting down next to a bush of the flowers, he mediated on the scent. In his mind's eye Neitto pictured the flowers, images of the breeze carrying the scent and pollen. "The pollen!" he thought. He had completely forgotten what he had learned from his time with the Yamanaka Clan at their Flower Shop.

He didn't need just a pretty smell, he needed a specific scent, that of pollen. He plucked another flower and examined its stamen and anther, the parts of flowers that produce the pollen. He took his index finger and prodded its anther, collecting a small amount of pollen on his fingers.

Bringing his finger to his nose he gave it a subtle sniff. Holding back a sneeze he realized the scent of the flower has quite a different smell compared to just the pollen itself. "Again!" he thought to himself with determination. Remaining in his meditative position, he brought his hands together. Keeping the sweet pollen scent in his mind and aroma the flowers around him he began to let his chakra out. While he released the chakra into the air around him he molded it more carefully to get the correct scent. As the wind carried the flowers pollen around him he wove his chakra with it and began forming the hand seals. A similar scent began to fill the air around him, he turned his to the nearby beehive, hoping his jutsu would call them to him.

(edit, ooc: Am I doin alright? Anything I could do better to improve my scores in the future?)

[Nira]

For the one that Ryo graded, keep in mind that the first paragraph probably wasn't considered. Establishing where you are, although important, doesn't get considered training by most.

Using pollen to compliment the training is a nice idea.

I'd like to encourage that, so...

Today he is going to attempt to learn skills from the Yamanaka Clan. Several months ago members from the clan moved to the Stone Village. Though the were reluctant to trust him at first, he proved himself trustworthy by working part time at their flower store for a few weeks. After teaching him one of there must basic techniques, Art of the Valentine, he gave him a scroll filled with low ranking techniques. He whipped out the scroll from his pocket and began reading the first inscription. "Seems simple enough.." he thought to himself. He gently placed the scroll back into his pocket in case he needed to look it over later.

He looked around for an animal that he could use as his guinea pig. There were several birds in sky he could use, he watched them soar across the sky. He spotted one that swooped down near him, around five meters, on a tree branch. "Good enough" he whispered under his breath. He stood facing the bird, facing up at the brace, he formed two hand seals, horse and snake. Next he formed one of the Yamanaka's unique seals, the triangle hand seal!

He raised his hands up and brought them together, bringing his index finders together and his thumbs, forming a triangle. He adjusted his seals to have the bird directly in the center and said "Cupid Eye Jutsu!" He closed his eyes tight and reopened them after a moment, hoping to see a birds eye view of the world. However when he opened his eyes, all he saw was his hands pointing at the bird. He lowered his hands and took the scroll back out, looking to see if he had missed something. Which he had not, he put it away and looked back up at the bird who was still perched on the branch.

He planted his feet firmly in the ground and calmed his mind. Forming the hand seals, and again raising his hands making the triangle seal. He focused his chakra up into his hands, and then to his index finger and thumbs. The chakra began building up inside of the triangle, slightly. He muttered "Cupid Eye Jutsu" and sent the mind link to the bird. It appeared that it connected, keeping his hands raised up to the bird, he hoped the bird would not fly too far away or hide. But then his vision began to fade away and in seconds he could not see anything.

He tried blinking a couple of times, each time he reopened them he could see a little bit more. Suddenly he could see again, only it wasn't from the bird. He looked through the triangle seal and noticed was no longer there. "Great." he said, followed by a sigh. It appeared that the link was forming, but the bird must have flown away. He looked around for another animal he could use, but was unsuccessful in finding anything that would stand still. Tired of doing it the hard way, he called out a single bee from his hive and placed had it rest on the hand.

He then sat down on the ground and placed the bee on a small rock in front of him. He sat for a moment, emptying his mind and focusing his chakra. Next he swiftly weaved hand seals, ending with the triangle seal pointing at the single bee. With the triangle seal formed he build up chakra in the triangle that would form the mind link between the two. He called out the name of the jutsu yet again and unleashed his jutsu on the bee. His eyes went black for a moment before returning quicker than before, however when he opened his eyes he saw what looked just like..

..what looked just like.. himself! "Amazing! So this is what it's like too see from their perspective." It was a good day of training for him, but he is in dire need of food and sleep, so he headed home. The next day he decided to get something done he had been putting off for some time, Doku Gaman. Poison tolerance was a simple thing to obtain, but all the stings and small doses of poison can be extremely painful. He asked his parents to help him by being the ones to carefully sting him with bees, he didn't feel comfortable doing it himself. For three days he'll be stung twice a day.

Day One: His parents wake him up at the crack of dawn, which he was expecting. He did not sleep very well, knowing what was to come. They sit him down on a sturdy wooden chair, his father standing behind him ready to keep him from jerking in pain while his mother applies the stings. Without warning his mother, faster than his eye could see, picked up a bee a strong his shoulder. Neitto immediately nearly jerked out of his chair, and let out a loud scream.

"One down, twenty-four more to go.." said his mother, she almost couldn't stand it. The rest of the day is a blur for him, all he can recall is pain.

Day Two: Neitto wakes up, feeling half alive, unable to recall the previous day. His parents standing next to his bed, with miserable faces. Not wanting them to feel any worse, he mustered all his energy to get out of bed, smiles and says "Piece of cake" and shambles out of is room to get his first sting of the day. The pain was slightly less painful, maybe, he couldn't tell after the first few seconds. His vision began to blur, but was able to stay conscious.

His parents helped him back to his bedroom for him to rest until the next session. Twelve hours later they wake him, this time they stayed in his bedroom, not wanting to further his pain by making him walk. The sting pain lessens, until the poison kicks in. Even in small doses he feels all of it, never been poisoned before and again he passes out.

Day Three: The final day, he's awake even before his parents. The poison has been effecting his dreams as well, they're either nightmares or nonsense. His body knows what's going to happen, even though his mind doesn't. Even though yesterday wasn't as bad, most of it was still a blur. He sits up an waits for his parents to enter, which is only a couple minutes. They walk in, surprised to see him up and awake. They help him to the kitchen to get him something to eat.

Even though he hasn't eaten in two days he was not hungry, unable to keep down anything but honey and water. After he was finished, they readied him for another session. When his mother applied the sting he almost didn't feel it, nor the poison. His body felt slightly numb, but was still able to feel and move.

He didn't feel like passing out, or going to sleep. He laid in bed staring at the ceiling only thinking about how it's almost over, just one more sting. The hours passed by like nothing, and it was time for his final sting. He hears his bedroom door open, and the sound of their footsteps, he turns his head over to see them kneeling next to him. "Just one more" they say to him and apply the final sting. Neitto couldn't be more relieved, he didn't feel the sting or notice the poison. He just wanted to sleep and put all this behind him, and wake up tomorrow without anything stinging him.

After the taxing past few days Neitto returned to the same location where he was training before. There were several large boulders for him to work with, he stepped towards the one nearest. "Should be simple enough.." he thought, lifting his left hand up. Once fully raised he released called forth his Bees from his bodies living Hive-body. They formed around him, flowing across his body "This might hurt a tad, fellas.." he whispered to them.

He moved his arms and crossed them over his chest with his finger tips stretched out. He planted his feat and swiftly formed the two seals "Horse! Ram!" he thought, then called out "Hachitsume!" he followed threw by extending his left arm fully outwards allowing the five bees to attach to his finger. "That was the easy part.." he thought. The five bees now resting gently on his fingertips, he started to focus his chakra around them. He could see his chakra starting to burst from his fingers, but it wasn't right.

Suddenly light snapping noises came from the bees and then the fell to the ground. He kneeled down to see that three of them only slightly grazed, two with damaged wing and one dead. He had to hold back the tears as he scooped up the living ones with his right hand and placed them back into his body. He then dug a tiny grave with his finger and placed the bee into it. As he covered its body with dirt, he shed a single tear that dropped spot on its grave.

Neitto stood up fast and strong, he could not look back, only move forward. He faced the rock yet again and stood at the ready. He used his hands to form the seals and extended his left arm yet again, clutching his forearm with his right. The another set of bees clutched to his finger tips, stingers facing outwards. His chakra then began to flow through his arm and into his hand. When they reached his fingers he closed his eyes and focused.

Thinking only of protecting his bees, he had to do it correctly. When he opened his eyes he saw the bees unharmed, resting easy on his fingertips. He faced the rock near him and prepared to stab it, bringing his fingers together he thrusted his hard. A controlled strike with just enough force to pierce the stone. It felt like the stingers had gotten through, but when he pulled his hand back he saw no change in the stone. The bees had failed to penetrate it, but they were undamaged. He must have built the chakra bubble too thick, covering the bees, but also their stingers.

As the bubbles faded the bees flew off back to the swarm, "This time for sure!" he thought to himself. Remaking the hand seals quickly and calling out the jutsu again, five more bees flew to his fingers and planted themselves on them, pointing their stingers up. Neitto then concentrated on forming chakra bubbles, not too big or too strong. Without hesitating he thrusted his hand again at the rock hoping to pierce into it.

Although his jutsu was stronger than before, it was not yet done to perfection. His stingers had barely gotten through the surface. While maintaining the jutsu he took a more firm stance and began striking the stone in intervals of ten seconds. After each unsuccessful strike he increased the chakra pressure in his fingers to find the correct balance. Neitto was striking for what felt like hours, slowing but surely improving with each thrust.

As he pulled back his hand after stabbing the boulder what seemed endless, it revealed that his bees successfully penetrated the rock's exterior while protecting them from harm. The chakra bubble faded as he ended the jutsu and his bees flew free and retreated back into his body. He forehead began to sweat, he lifted his protector slightly with his arm, and with the other wiped it dry with his sleeve. He headed for a nearby forest inside the village. When he arrived he started searching for a tiny animal that could assist him. It only moments for him to spot a grey rabbit hopping across his path. After a brief scuffle to get a firm grip on it. "Do not worry little friend, I will not harm you."

With rabbit in hand he sat down cross-legged and placed the rabbit between them, to keep it from escaping. He raised his hand and out flew a single bee, which hovered around him and the bunny. With his legs firmly gripping the brought his hands together to form a hand seal. After the seal was form, the bee then flew onto the rabbits fur and made a tiny explosion. The rabbit remained unharmed, but the bee was now a tiny wax dot splattered on the rabbits fur.

With the easy part over, he released the rabbit from his clutches and stood straight up. He watched as the rabbit went back into the forest. After a couple minutes for it to get some space between them he raised both his hands and formed them together to make the tiger seal. He then closed his eyes and focused on only the wax dot he had left. With his chakra left on the rabbit, he should be able to sense its location. After a few minutes of holding the seal, he still didn't feel or sense anything different.

He opened his mouth and took a deep breathe, he needed to focus harder. He stood still and firm and reformed the tiger seal. Blocking out all distractions, sights, sounds and smells he was finally able to feel it. It felt like a small blip, that quickly faded away, it must be on the move. He walked into the tiny forest a few meters and took his stance yet again.

Forming the seal, emptying his mind to regain his focus he felt it again. But this time the small blip felt closer. Holding the seal he took a few steps wherever he felt pulled to. After taking only a few steps the feeling grew but suddenly the feeling disappeared as he heard a loud crack. He looked down to see he stepped on a falling branch, which must have frightened the rabbit away. Neitto sighed and shrugged his shoulders, allowing the rabbit time again to get some distance between them.

His hands were starting to grow tired, forming the same seal over and over. He shook his hand softly, rotating around his wrists, getting them loosened up. He closed his eye yet again and formed the tiger seal and focused on his wax dot trying to home in on its location. Once he got a good feel on which direction it went, he slowly walked towards it. Every meter he reforms the tiger seal, so he can track it as well as not scaring it away. He then felt the sense stronger than ever before, it should be very close, low to the ground to his left. He looked over and down, noticing a tiny bush, he kneeled down and spread open the bush to find...

To find the same grey rabbit he marked earlier, he smiled and stood up and left the rabbit in peace. He exited the small forest and looked up. It was night now, "How long was I looking for that thing?" he pondered to himself. Even though the sun went down, the moon and stars are as bright as ever. Lucky for him it was a cloudless night, giving him just enough light to continue training just a bit longer.

He headed for a more clear opening under the starlight for him to train. For this technique he would need some assistance, releasing the swarm of bees from inside him. He then formed three hand seals and said "Dekiagari Hana!" attracting enough bees to be used as makeshift projectiles. He commanded the new bees he called to take place five meters from him as he took his spot in facing them with his main bees flying around him.

He took his pose and stood firm, weaving the three seals needed to activate this jutsu. After completing them, his bees starting to swarm in front of him. They started to form small shield swirling in front of him. But the shield wasn't complete, there were several opening left open. He released the jutsu and the incomplete bug shield fell apart, returning to a simple swarm. Forming the hand seals yet again, he focused more of his chakra into the technique. The bees made what looked like a much better shield this time.

He then commanded his projectile bees to fly towards the shield in an attempt to break through, but without injuring him. At first the shield seemed to be working, until it gave out and the projectile bees pierced through. Neitto sighed and frowned, he was worn out from today's training. He took a moment to gather his thoughts before he moved the bees back into position. Taking a deep breath and after weaving the hand seals required, he exclaimed "Hachitate!" his voice echoed around him as the bees started to form in front of him.

But right away he could tell the shield was imperfect. The bees did not move to form a solid object, gaps would keep appearing around the shield. He cancelled the jutsu and thought to himself "Next time make sure the bees are in a tighter formation." More determined than before, he brought his hands together to weave the seals, allowing his chakra to flow though the bees to make the perfect shield. The bees seemed to respond to better than the last time. The shield looked more thick this time, the bees flowing together perfectly.

With the shield in place, he again commanded his attracted bees to attempted to penetrate his shield. As he waited for them to make contact, he braced himself in case any are able to pass by. This time there were less able to break through, but they were able to get though none the less. He re-positioned himself and his bees, bringing his hands together, preparing to make the seals. Taking a few deep breaths, focusing his chakra he swiftly starts forming seals, "Hachitate!" he called out.

Once again his bees flew in front of him to make the shield. As soon as its formed he commands the projectile bees to fly towards him to attempt to penetrate the shield. Which they just barely did. Neitto's lowered his head and signed angrily, "Why is this taking so long?!" he thought. He normally was not one to get upset easily, but its been a long day of training and he's almost out of chakra. "Just one more time" he said. Forming the seal tiger, monkey then horse he cried out "Hachitate!" the bee shield looked fantastic, but he had to test it to make sure. He commanded his summoned bees to form projectiles and strike the shield yet again. Upon close inspection of the shield after the strike, he noticed that they..

..he noticed that they.. were unable to pierce the shield and the shield was able to retain its form. "Success!" he said with joy. Cancelling the jutsu, his bee's retreated back inside him and released the other bee's he used as projectiles. He grinned and reached back into his pocket and pulled out the Yamanaka scroll he brought with him. Gently unraveling it to the next technique, he decided he would head into the village while going over the details written down.

He rolled the scroll back up and headed back towards the village. After walking across some bridges and passing through the city trying to find a good spot for him to practice. He spotted a ramen store with an open booth with a man working in plain sight. Luckily there was a big stone building across the street, where'd he could get a perfect view of the man. He jumped up onto the roof and made himself comfortable sitting down.

He pulled the scroll again to read over the section of the cupid ear jutsu in case he had missed anything. He memorized the hand seals and close the scroll to place it back his pocket. He faced the man and started weaving the hand seals for horse the rat, followed by the triangle hand seal that he pointed at the man. His chakra started to flow into his hands and through his fingers. Once he built up enough chakra he started to form the link between him and the man. When he felt his chakra ready, he sent out the link attempting to connect to the man's mind so he could access his hearing.

Neitto closed his eyes and opened his ears, trying to hear something other than the sound of foot steps on stone and the faint words of villagers passing by. However nothing changed with his hearing, from that man's location she should be able to hear the sound of his kitchen and the patrons eating. Neitto extended his pinky finger out and raised it up to his ear to clean out the ear wax. After he was finished he reformed the horse and rat seal, finishing with the triangle seal which he pointed towards the restaurant worker.

He turned his head sideways to the left, exposing his ear and pointing it towards the worker. He sat a few minutes in silence, keeping his seal focused at the man. But there was no change in his hearing, only the shuffling of feet and incoherent voices. Perhaps that was the problem, too many voices and noises overlapping. There was too much to block out, the more he focused to hear the one he's focusing on, the more background noise he picks up.

Neitto then took a meditative pose, legs crossed and hands together, and attempted quiet his mind to block out other sounds. He then had an idea and called two bees from his inner hive. He carefully had them hover in place about an inch away from his ears. The bees would use their buzzing to drown out the various sounds he was hearing. But if and when his jutsu worked, he would no longer hear the bees only what his target would be.

Several minutes later he felt ready, the sound of the buzzing was now his world. Blocking out all other noises, he began to build his chakra. Forming the necessary hand seals, he began to form the chakra link in his mind. Reaching the triangle seal, he released the chakra built up and sent it through his body and into his hands. Lucky for him the man working was still at the front. The triangle seal pointing directly at the man he spoke softly, "Cupid Ear Justu!" and released the mind link. Suddenly the sound of the bees faded, the next thing he heard was..

.. the next thing he heard was.. sounds that weren't his. He could hear voices from the street below clearer and the kitchen the man was working in. Neitto released the jutsu and smiled wide. He pulled back out his Yamanaka scroll and scrolled through to the last technique on the small scroll, the Cupid Mouth Jutsu. Once he finished this jutsu he could return to them and exchange it for higher ranking jutsu from their clan. Neitto remained on top of the building's roof, with the restaurant worker still working hard at the front. He took a minute to memorize the details and hand seals of the jutsu before he placed it safely back in his pocket.

He took a meditative pose and started to build up his chakra. He brought his hands together and formed two hand seals, then ended with the triangle seal. He pointed the triangle at the worker man and spoke "Cupid Mouth Jutsu!" the chakra he built up with sent towards the man, attempting to form the mind link. He opened his mouth slightly and waited for the words to come out of his mouth.

He waited for a moment before he closed his mouth and dropped the seal. Neitto closed his eyes and tried to re-imagine the mind link. It should be similar, if not the same, link he used for the Cupid Ear and Eye Jutsu. With the link in mind, he began weaving the hand seals and ending with the triangle seal aim at the man. As the jutsu was released he felt the link attach this time, some how, although not fully. His mouth suddenly started to move on it's on, mimicking the man below.

Even though his mouth was moving, there was no voice. He broke the triangle seal and at the same time his mouth stopped moving. "Making progress.." he said to himself. Reforming the seals, he pushed more chakra through his body and into his hands. With his hands pointed to the restaurant worker, he let the link loose. Once he felt the link make contact he yelled "GOOD MORNING, WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU TODAY?" He quickly brought his hands to his mouth to cover them. "Must have put too much into it that time.." he whispered as the people walking by began staring at him.

Luckily the worker hadn't noticed, the noise of the kitchen and patrons must have drowned it out. He took a moment to meditate on his chakra strength, too much and it was no good. As raised his arms to form the seals, sending a smaller amount of chakra into his hands. When he finished with the triangle seal he said quietly "Cupid Mouth Jutsu." and sent the chakra he built in his hands to the worker. Unfortunately he did not feel it connect this time, as he did before, "Too little this time. Just find your balance" he thought.

Netto released the triangle seal and lowered his hands and let out an annoying sigh. He closed his eyes and clapped his hands, holding them together, taking a moment to calm down. Seconds later he reopened them and swiftly weaved his handseals. When he formed the triangle seal, he poured a more steady stream of chakra through his body and too his finder tips. Once his chakra entered the triangle, he began forming the link within his mind, connecting it to the chakra in his fingers.

With the restaurant worker in the center of the triangle he unleashed the jutsu, it would only take a second before he could tell if it worked. As the second passed, his mouth and tongue began to move. But again, no sound was coming out. However he was making progress, at least he did not blurt anything out this time. He rebuilt the chakra in him and weaved the seals, finishing with the triangle seal with his arms extended outwards. This time pushing out, what he felt, would be strong enough. As the jutsu connected Neitto felt his mouth..

However, Pain may cause the opponent to flinch and fall over.

0/10

.. Neitto felt his mouth.. move and he spoke thus "Thank you for coming! Have a nice day!" although it wasn't him actually speaking, just copying what his target was. He released the jutsu grinned. Having completed his low rank Yamanka jutsu, he gathered his belongings and headed home. Once he got there he had a quick bite and went to his room, placed his scroll back in his desk. Next to the scroll was a few others, each holding low rank jutsu from various clans he's part of. He pulled out the Nara Clans scroll and placed it in his pocket and head back out for more training. He went to his usual spot, across from bridges and up a bridge that leads to a forest area.

He whipped out the scroll and began reading over the first technique. The Shadow Imitation Technique was the first, lucky for him he learned that already. He scrolled down to the next jutsu, Shadow Strike. He thoroughly read over the details and memorized the hand seals. Once finished he placed it into his pocket and began practicing the seals until he perfected the order. After about a minute he felt confident enough. He found a place to stand, his back to the sun.

Before actually hitting anything he needed to get the shadow to move. He took a firm stance and brought his hands together to build chakra. Once at his limit he carefully started weaving the hand seals. When he reached the final one he held the final seal and at the same time pushed his chakra down into his shadow. He closed his eyes and visioned him punching and kicking, hoping his shadow would follow suit. He reopened his eyes to see his shadow unmoved. Unsatisfied, he re-imagined the punches and kicks with no results.

He was not surprised, it was only his first attempt after all. Reforming the seals only he kept the thought of just punching this time. While holding the last seal, he kept his eyes wide open as he willed his shadow to move. Several minutes passed before, just for a moment, his shadow's limbs began to move. "Better than nothing." He thought to himself as he broke the hand seals. Trying again, he only picture just the arm punching, rather than the entire body, and the leg kicking.

But still nothing. the look of his shadow had never bothered him this much. Neitto took a deep breath, took his pose and started weaving the hand seals yet again. When he ended on the final seal he held it and spoke "Shadow Strike." He imagined his shadow doing simple jabs, and willed his shadow to do just the same. His shadow began to move slightly, its arms struggling to follow through with the motion. Imagining himself kicking next was not any better.

He released the hand seal he was holding and relaxed his body. He had a thought, instead of standing he would sit comfortably. As long as his body casted a large enough shadow, it should work. First he re-positioned himself slightly as the sun was now facing a slightly different angle. Weaving the handseals he poured his chakra into his shadow has he held the final seal.

"Success." he thought confidently, he shadow began to punch as he willed it. Now he just needed to make sure it actually worked. He commanded one of his bees to come out from his hive, and had it land on the ground in front of him. Although small, the bee did cast a small shadow that he could practice on. "Sorry, Bee-chan." he said with regret as he had his shadow flick at the bees shadow. If it worked the bee should feel the small pain of it and react in some way. Neitto was used to bee stings by now anyway.
