After breakfast Pax went straight back to training. To warm up his muscles, he had to do all 3 of his steps over again and make a new step. So he started once again, swinging from branch to branch, jumping off as high as he could, and landing with his feet , fingers on the ground supporting him. After about an hour Pax had realized he wasn't making progress so he did his usual charade of Sheathing and unsheathing his blade until his fingers blistered.

By the time Pax started the third step it was getting close to the lunch break time. So Pax told himself he couldn't take lunch until he finished everything he was doing. So after an hour of stealing a blade off of a wooden/straw dummy, Pax had figured out what to do for his fourth step of his new training regiment. Pax would now attempt to run a mile on his hands and fingers.

Of course he would never make it for lunch so he started running around on his hands around the training ground. After he started getting hungry he ran all the way to get food on his fingers and hands. When he finished eating his meal he ran back to the training field to start something new.

Tsubasa Sodachimasu no jutsu (Wing Grow Technique)
Rank: C-Rank
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Lets the user grow wings of a bird out of their shoulders.
Special: Ram
Drawback: The user may feel some pain, due to the initial outburst of the extra shoulder bones that are used for the rest of the wings to grow on. Cannot Re-grow wings that were ripped or severed from the body. If one wing is removed then it is impossible to retract the wings. If a wing is injured somehow, once retracted they cannot be used for 2 weeks OOC.
Description: The user forms the handseal, and then the extra shoulder bones that come from the Ritual of Talon and Feather burst through the back of the user and they start to grow into wings of any given bird, through chakra increasing the length of the bones, (user chooses) that are twice the length of the user’s arms. Chakra will numb the pain, but it will still hurt. The chakra will also accelerate the growth of the skin, but it will come out with feathers, having stimulated the chemical. The user may then use the wings to fly and perform other techniques that require this jutsu. When the Tsubasa wishes it or has an injured wing they can retract the wings into their body to heal over time or simply to hide them.
Limit: Must be a Tsubasa, must have Ritual of the Talon and Feather performed on them.

Pax had to finish something he had started. He forgot that his doctor gave him a scroll for a jutsu he had needed. Pax had just recently bought wings and had to start learning how to make his wings appear from his second shoulder bone implant. Whatever that had meant so first, as anyone naturally would, Pax tried to feel the implants added onto his original shoulder blades. As he felt the tiny bones in his shoulders he shivered and asked himself how these tiny things would become wings that could make him soar through the sky, like an eagle.

What he hadn't realized was that the tiny bones also had calcium deposits in them. He had basically completely blacked out for the surgery, so he hadn't seen his wings yet. That wasn't the reason he forgot, the doctor had told him all this, but the impatient ninja didn't listen before the surgery. Which means he didn't know how much pain he was about to be in.

So Pax did as he was instructed and found a nice and quite place in the middle of nowhere to try this jutsu. When he finally found a quiet place he checked how to perform the jutsu. "To do this jutsu you must concentrate chakra to where your new wings are." The scroll told the young ninja so he braced himself. Weaving the required hand signs, Pax concentrate the chakra to the little nubs that where once normal shoulders. As the ninja's back began to bubble he cried out in agonizing pain.

The bubbling back started to erupt out with the bone structure similar to that of a ravens. The skin the started covering the bones and for a minute Pax had felt a numbing sensation. After the skin flooded his bones like a river, green blood coursed through his veins. The new blood infused with chakra and calcium would cover the bone and skin structure with feathers as black as night. When all was said and done Pax was finally the winged freak he had wanted to be.

"Guess the first time's painful." Pax said to himself in between gasps for breathe. "Maybe next time I'll pick something that'll make me feel good... yeah right." He gasped to himself as he began folding and unfolding his wings and cracking his neck. "Ohhhh yeah I can get used to this." He screeched as he sent his wings back into his back cavities. He figured the least he could do was not freak out the locals. When Pax got home he couldn't stop opening and closing his wings.

After Pax was able to form his wings he had tried to fly by himself. After a week of trying he finally gave up and asked to doctor why he couldn't. When the doctor told him that he couldn't help him Pax was discouraged but his doctor quickly referred him to another Tsubasa living in Taki who could help him. From what he heard, on a Tsubasa can teach a Tsubasa to fly. Pax approached the house of the bird man and knocked on the front door.

The old man who had came to the door wasn't what Pax expected. Honestly he thought he would meet a bird freak but it was just a normal 50ish year old man. The old man had already known why Pax was there so he introduced himself. "Hello my name is Tori Hanamara. You must be Pax correct?""Yes sir my doctor told me you could help me fly?" Pax asked the old man as respectfully as he could. "Sure follow me outside and we can get started right away." Mr. Hanamara said as he walked out side and sprouted wings.

"The first thing you must know is how to move your wings. When a bird wants to take off the use both their wings to lift their body of the ground." Tori said as he demonstrate to Pax. "Give it a try." So Pax sprouted his wings too in agonizing pain but he kept it in. When his wings were ready Pax jumped and flapped his wings in tandem. This suspended the ninja 5 feet in the air for a few minutes. "Like this?" Pax asked as he could feel his wings lifting him. "Not quite you're still wobbly and unable to go higher or descent gracefully. Drop down to the ground and stretch your wings like this." Tori said as he fell to the earth and stretched his wings out as wide as they would go.

So Pax did as he was instructed and stretched his wings out completely. He could hear the little bones crack and settle and it felt refreshing. "Good stay like that for a few minutes and then curl them up tight and try again." Mr. Hanamara said as he observed the new bird man gain a feel for his new limbs.   Once again Pax obeyed and it felt great to stretch his wings again. Pax kept asking how much longer until he could fly, but Mr. Hanamara made him wait even longer after every time he asked but after he was done stretching Mr. Hanamara moved on to the next exercise.

The next exercise was wing push up which are self explanatory. So again Pax did the exercise and felt his wings feeling better. After an hour of Tori adding more and more weight he said Pax was ready. So like a new born bird Pax would be push out of his nest to fly. The next thing Pax had known, they were on top of a giant cliff where it looked like you'd never reach the ground. As Pax was staring at the drop Mr. Hanamara kicked him off and jumped off flying after him. He watched as Pax squirmed and the eventually learned how to position his wings to glide and fly like a real bird.
