To cleanse one self. [Training][Open]

[Koori.]

"Unfortunately, you cant help me here. I need to do this all on my own. You will be safe however. My secret training grounds are unknown to all. You'll be safe there, and might even get a chance to train up a bit." said koori as they walked on.

Oddly enough, the grounds were only on the only side of the cliff face of the mountain that was right next to them this whole walk, and it would only take a matter of seconds before they would be at the entrance to his training grounds. Koori lead weeze thourgh a series of paths through and up into the cliff side of the mountain. They eventualy came to what looked like a lake bed, on the middle of a mountain, odd, yet not for koori.

Koori stopped himself and weeze here. "You said you cant swim, So im going to help you. How long can you hold your breath" said koori putting his bag down and and taking his cloak off and stripping to his boxers. he waited for the boys response.

[-W-]

Weeze was completely lost as he went through the mountain. He began to wonder how long it had taken him to find his way through here. As he walked up onto a pool of water, Weeze remembered him talking about swimming. "You said you cant swim, So i'm going to help you. How long can you hold your breath"Weeze thought about and guessed. Uh..a couple minutes i guess. Never really counted how long." But what about her?" Weeze asked pointing to his dog. He never heard of a dog holding its breath before. It would be interesting to find out. Of course he didnt wanna risk his own to see the answer.

[Koori.]

"Thats long enough. and the dog will be fine, you'll both live, the entrance isn't long." said koori who had now jumped into the water of the lake. "Whoooo. Bit chilly in here, ya know?" said koori shivering a little bit, he waited for weeze to do the same.

"Dont worry, there is enough food on the other side to last you a couple of months of life, haha." sai koori with a laugh trying to ease weeze's discomfort.

After a brief stare into the distance Nagaku sighed, standing up as he walked off towards the village.

Weeze laughed at Koori joke. "Well i hope for your sake, it doesn't take that long." He chuckled as he stripped down and jumped in. With his bag on, he whistled for the dog to jump in, adn she jumped in moments later clearly enjoying the cool water. "Lettttsss...hur..hurry." Weeze said as his teeth rattled. He couldn't believe it was so cold.

[Koori.]

Koori began a count, to initiate weeze to hold his breath. "One......Two.....THREE!!" Koori dove down, grabbing Weeze's shoulder puling him under with him. The puppy would dive and dogy paddle down with them. Koori and weeze and the puppy swam under and dove down into the high mountainous lake area.

As they dove, Koori lead them to a huge rock face on the lakes bottom, koori quickly swam them to the right side of it, and then behind it. Cleverly it had placed to appear to just e a rock, when it concealed a passage to the ground. As they swam through the small hole, koori lead them to the other side of it finally.

Koori and weeze along wit the puppy woudl rise form the lake on the other side and appear in a completely new area. This would be kooris secret training grounds. Koori leade weeze and the puppy to the shore. There would be vegatation and clean water, and an open field, surrounded by high mountain with an open roof, it was perfect. Koori looked at the two and spoke

"Do whatever you want to pass the time, I'll be gone for a little bit, But I WILL be back. These are my personal training grounds, use them wisely." And with that, koori was off, and gone from the training grounds.

Weeze had just manage to breathe when he was thrown under water. As he was being lead by Koori, he tried to look around a little bit. there wasn't much to see other then a lot of rocks. As he was lead behind another rock and into a small whole, Weeze began to fear he might run a little to low on air and start to drown. He tried to swim faster, but he would have no idea were to go, and it was to small in the hole to turn around.

Just as he felt he was about to burst, he came up for air. He looked around at were they were. It was beautiful. Fresh water, vegetables, and the smell of clean fresh air. He looked up to see an open roof. It was wonderful in here. It was hard to imagine why anyone would ever wanna leave this spot. Koori would then lead him to the shores.

"Do whatever you want to pass the time, I'll be gone for a little bit, But I WILL be back. These are my personal training grounds, use them wisely." Koori said as the reached the shores. Weeze nodded and watched him go back into the water and disappear. Libby was running around shakking off her fur and smelling everything in site. He smiled and laughed at her. when she only looked back at him, he only said "you greedy animal." With that he picked up his bag he dropped on the floor and pulled out a scroll. It was a bit wet, but it would do. He wrote his report on how the mission had transpired up to that point and put it away.

He began taking out other items drying them off. The last thing to come out was another scroll. Looking at it, he unrolled it and read it. He figured now was as good as any time to train.

(My Next Post will be a training post)

Fuuton Kaze no Senbon (Needles of the Wind)
Rank: D Rank
Type: Ninjutsu
Effect: ---
Description: The ninja gathers air with his hands and mixes it with chakra, by doing this he transforms them into sharp and deadly needles. The needles are almost invisible so it is hard for the enemies to see them. Because the needles are made of air they cannot be blocked or deflected. The only way to ensure safety is to dodge them.
Limit: Wind Release

As Weeze Let his puppy run around wild and to have some fun exploring the area, Weeze was going to train. Walking over to were the water edge meets the wall of the mountain, he decided this would be a good spot. He pulled out several scrolls he had grabbed before he had left the sand village.Finally deciding which one he was going with, unrolled his scroll and read it over several times to get the general idea.

After several more times to make sure he had the Jutsu down, he got up and went over toward the waters edge and took in a deep breath. Send chakra to his hands, he begun to gather air. As he did this, he started to try and mix his chakra with it. Taking another deep breath, he began and try to make sharp needles out of them as the scroll had instructed. Feeling confident that he had it down so far, he went to throw them up against the mountain wall. Looking eagerly to see what happened, face fell. The only thing he saw leave his hand was a little bit of the chakra he had tried to mix with the air. And even that only went a foot or to in front of him before it disappeared. Looking back over the scroll to make sure he did it right, he tried everything again.

Once again, he took a breath and gathered some of the surrounding air in his hands. He Started to try and mix his chakra with it again. Trying to get the chakra and air to form into little needles, he tossed them at the side of the wall. Again, there was nothing more then seeing a little bit of his chakra leave his hand and disappear a few feet in front of him. In the background he could here his dog barking. He could just tell she was laughing at him. He grew a little red in the face but tired again and again. And each time, he got nothing more then watching chakra just leave him and disappearing a few feat in front of him.

Starting to grow aggravated, he angry gathered more air in his hands and poured a large amount of his charkra into it and angrily formed it into niddles. Throwing it wildly, he couldnt be sure, but he could swear on his life that he saw two needles flying into the water. With that his face lit up instantly ready to try again. As he went to do it again. He did everything the same as before, grabbing some air, mixing it with chakra, and making needles out of it, he threw it.

Looking eagerly for a sign of damage the needles, he saw nothing. Cursing loudly he kicked a rock into the air. He watched it fall to the ground. He turned around and went to grab something to eat before returning to this hell. He didn't understand why he was having trouble. At the academy, all the jutsus came easy to him. He usually got most of them with in a few tries. What was so different now?

As Weeze wlked over to his bag, he tore through it looking for something to eat. find something, he angrily through it into his mouth. What was it that mad this jutsu so difficult. There was nothing really hard about it. He reread the scroll several more times to make sure he was doing everything right. He was. Everything was right on the money. Turning his head, he saw libby sniffing around.

She stopped, then jumped instantly and started to chase after something. He smiled. She was still to young to do any serious training with her. Turning his attention back to the problem on hand, he laid back and closed his eyes. "Think." he spoke out loud. Why did it work that one time, but not any of the others. What made that one time so different? Thinking hard, he thought back. It was hard to remember his thoughts though. Most of them were clouded because he was so angry.

He thought maybe if he compared the jutsu to the ones at the academy he might get it. He was good at controlling his chakra. He knew that. And the ones at the academy didn't require much...Chakra...That was it. He remembered using a lot more charka then the previous times before. He jumped up and Raced backed over to his spot. That was it. He just knew. Before he got angry he used to little. And the chakra wasn't doing much. Taking a deep breath, he did the same as before.

Grabbed some more air, he dumped some more chakra then last time, molded it into the air forming needles out of it. Taking one more breath, he sent them flying towards the water. Closing his eyes he waited. It seemed as if it were going to take an eternity to find his answer. But just as he was thinking this, he could hear a splash. Looking up, he could see the ripples from the contact of the needles. Laughing hard, he did it again. Same result. He did it again and again, he laughed harder. He had it down. He learned his first technique outside the academy. He was now on his way to becoming a real ninja. And not just some wanna be.

[Koori.]

Learned.

[Koori.]

Koori was running now, focusin again chakra into his feet to make him noiseless and makeing sure no one could follow him, he arrived back form the hidden village of cloud. It had only been about a day maybe, and koori arrived back so soon with the help of Nagaku ironically enough. Koori had the scrolls in his back pack and had arrived at his secret mountain training ground.

Koori did not want to get the scrolls wet, so what did he do? Simple Koori placed a invisibility sheet over the back pack as he jumped into the water and swam deep into the lake on the high mountain side. He swam under quickly and made his way through the mountain side and over into his training grounds. He popped up from the water and looked right at Weeze as he came up from the water.

"We gotta go NOW!" said koori, looking at the training Weeze. We dont have time, they will be here once my trailing genjutsu wears off, we aint got time. Koori forced weeze along and forced him to ready his things, he waited for him to collect all his things, hopefully,. he would make it quick.

[-W-]

Weeze nodded and let out a long sharp whistle and ran to his things. A moment later, libby was standing by his side alter and ready. "So i take it then you got em?" even as he said this he was rushing to the waters edge. Looking back to the dog, he gave another series of whistles and nodded at the water. Th dog barked and ran into the water and started to swim ahead of them. She would come back and alert them to anyone coming.

[Koori.]

"Yes. Said koori with a smirk. I highly doubt we are being followed, but we dont have much time to get outta here. Ok, On three, One..........Two...........Three!" Koori dunked under the water with weeze and they made thier decent. Liby knew her way back to the other side and was ahead of them to warn them of any danger.

Koori and weeze made it under the water and through the hole and the bottom of the mountain side. The swam on and did so quickly, and were fast to come up on the other side of the mountain where liby had already came up. Koori and weeze finally made it to the waters surface and gasped for air.

They would quickly make thier way to the waters edge were liby already was, wagging her tail and panting vicously. Koori brought his finger to his mouth in an attempt to silence her as they got out of the water and koori dried himself off with his shirt. Stuffing the wet shirt back into the fornt pouch of his bag, he uncloaked the backpack with the scrolls, that was hidden under an invisibility cloak he had received in the academy.

Koori through his cloak over himself and waited for weeze to be ready, and then they would sprint full speed back to the Wind country, and on the way they would talk about how koori had done it, what weeze was up to, and how he managed to enter the village unnoticed.

[-W-]

Coming out of the water, Weeze found his clothes. He, like Koori, used his shirt to dry himself off. He then used it to dry libby off. Though he had to dry him again on account of liberty shaking herself dry. Stuffing the wet shirt in his bag, he picked up the dog and put her back into her place, with the bag again going on his stomach. Grabbing his pants, he threw them on quickly and looked over at Koori. "Alright i'm ready when you are." With that, he prepared himself for the long, urgent run back to the Wing capital.

[Koori.]

"Alright I'm ready when you are"

Those were all the words he needed to here to lead them off in the sprint. Weeze libby and koori were off and moving, scrolls and all back to the wind city capital. Koori was so pleased he had successfully pulled this off, a true test to show that he in fact was a true ninja. Koori began to fall into a full sprint and watched as weeze would follow him. They headed out and back. They were very quick to make thier way out of the mountain side.

Once out opf the mountain, they would continue thier sprint forth and out of the area, heading south bound for the claw country. They ran as fast as they could, koori knew he had to not only leave thunder, but get through claw before the exams were completely finished. Why? because of the cloud shinobi still in claw for the exams. Once they end, they will corner off koori and weeze at the half way point, and he will be stuck fighting a two front war.

No matter, with koori and weeze still sprinting full speed, they had already made it to the claw country.

[-W-]

Weeze ran as fast as he could behind Koori looking around every once in a while to make sure no one was following them. Weeze was pleased that Koori had manage to get the scrolls. It was an amazing thing. Specially since they both didn't think it was going to be possible. "So." Weeze said as they had reached Claw country. He figured they were a little safer here then they had been. "How did you manage to pull it off?" Weeze asked out of curiosity.

[Koori.]

Koori felt like boasting a little bit, but then remembered without Nagaku, none of this would have been possible. Koori looked off in the distance as they ran off further into the claw country. He did feel weeze deserved to know how koori had managed to pull off such an amazing feat, and these were quite a few things that contributed to his success however.

"Well, I ran into Nagaku again, the Nara who had stopped us earlier. He keep the village guard busy in battle while I had time to sneak into the village and then, the kage tower. Once there, I, oddly enough ran into no resistance once within the tower proper, and easily made my way to the library, as it was easy to find in such a small three story tower. I grabbed the scrolls, and shoved them bad boys into this bag here, and left the same window I entered" Koori said.

This long sotry had consumed almost the entire travel through Claw country, and it being such a small country, they were already out, and into thier next destination.

[-W-]

They were once again back into the trees of fire country as Koori was finishing up his story. Weeze let out a sharp laugh. "Really? Wow, he had me fooled for a heartless animal. I guess he have some does have a heart after all." For a long time Weeze sat there in silence pondering how close they were to being over with this mission. It seemed to have started and ended in a blink of an eye. It all seemed to be going perfectly. He had manage to do some training, Koori had gotten the scrolls the village wanted and Weeze had made a knew friend and teacher. He wasn't much older, but still, koori had more experience then he had.

Weeze let out a big smile and spoke. "Everything just seemed to go perfectly didn't it? Kind of mkaes me wonder how often that truly happens."

[Koori.]

Koori let out a laugh at the boys words. "Well, I still think he is, rather mean for my taste.......but that doesn't change that he came through for me, weather that was what he had planned or not, it helped in the end. I also have to thank the chuunin exams, they allowed me to enter the village without much resistance, since most of the defense were preoccupied with either partaking in the exams, or watching them."

"Everything is not alway as it seems" said koori with a smile. "But I think we will be just fine, I use a special Genjutsu that hid my tracks and allowed me to loose them, HOWEVER, only for a short time, but at the rate koori and weeze were traveling, doing all they talking they needed to get it as they ran forth, they would be back in the Wind Country in no time flat.

Koori was pleased, although he broke ties with cloud and might have lost alot of friends, he had already made a new one before he even became a Sand Ninja. Koori might hav even made a student, as wierd as that sounded for a mere genin to pick up a student. Koori felt he could instill a few things into Weeze, but not much, he stood his ground pretty good here. Koori however did feel that this was weeze's first mission, and a challenging one at that.

Koori couldn't wait to get back as they ran onward, and were already deep into the Fire country as they ran forward, infact, koori was almost certain that they had already came to the river country by now, the conversation and running constantly cause them to move quickly and oh, how the time flied.
