After obtaining much needed nourishment from one of the vendors at the food market in takigakure, Shigure would be seen walking at a nonchalant pace through town. He was given the next few days off for rest and relaxation, but his everlasting drive to make a name for himself in this village brought forth an eagerness the likes that even he hadn't known. Almost immediately, Shigure would bolt through the crowded streets, making his way to the outskirts of town, heading for his Team's Living Quarters. The only thing on his mind now was to train.

Slamming the door open to the Semitsu family's house, Shigure continued his hurried movement up the stairs and to his room. He was only their a short moment, just enough time to grab his Sensei's old training guide, dashing back the way he came in an instant. It came as no surprise that the house was empty, for only three people used the quaint house, and one rarely ever went inside. Hiroki and Phyre must be else-ware.

Instead of using his Sensei's old training ground, Shigure instead would hop the small mangled fence that separated the front and backyard to find himself standing in a small field. The positioning of the house was excellent for Fuuton training, for the small field acted as a wind tunnel, as it was positioned between two small mountains, the nearest being directly behind the House. They were lucky to find this prime real estate, given that His Aunt still had the deed to the place. The air was cool, trees alive with activity from varying woodland animals, and every once in a while you could hear a splash from the pond in the front yard from a fish. It was a grand Homestead.


Flipping through the pages in a frantic, the boy seemed to be searching for something he had already found. Elation came from Shigure's body as it seemed he had found the Technique in question. Skimming over the page once more, the jutsu seemed rather complicated, something that only a person with relatively good understanding of Fuuton could master. Memorizing the page rather quickly, the genin placed the book down and closed his eyes, standing in a pseudo-meditation stance. It was his goal to master the art of Fuuton, and this seemed like the perfect jutsu to take his training up a notch.

As Shigure's eyes opened, a drive came from them, like a fire burning wild. Much like his eyes, the chakra in his body came to life, churning and flowing faster. It was his time to prove himself worthy of being the next Wind Master in Takigakure. Without a moment to waste, the young teenager began to form the handseals required for the technique. In sync with the handseals, so did the chakra in his body move, mixing itself with the nature of the wind. Thrusting the chakra out of his body, the boy began molding it in mid air, attempting to fixate the chakra, and mold it into ten equal yet different cubes.

As he did so, the Cube's began to form, but unlike the description in the book, the cubes were bright, as if they held too much chakra to take on the invisibility aspect of the perfected technique. They didn't even take the perfect shape of a cube either, they looked more that disgruntled spheres, each ready to implode if the boy lost concentration. Instead of letting this attempt blow up in his face like so many other attempts of techniques, Shigure would release the technique, and attempt once more.

Holding steady, the boy released chakra once more, this time in smaller amounts, forming each cube with relative carefulness. As each formed, Shigure's face shown brighter and brighter. It was as if the boy was actually mastering the jutsu much quicker than the book described. After about the eight cube, Shigure took notice of how long it was taking to form all of the cubes, each cube took the focus of 3 seconds, which meant if all of them formed, it would take roughly half a minute to form the jutsu. Their was no way it could be used practically like this, he would have to attempt speed training on the next attempt.

Taking a short break, Shigure went inside to get a glass of water before attempting once more.

After leaving the house for a second time, Shigure came back to the spot he had designated as his own personal training grounds. The old training grounds he used to use was that of his diseased Sensei, but after the last round of trying out techniques, Shigure as well as Hiroki had destroyed the layout of the land, as well as much greenery. It looked like a war zone at the moment, for they had never came around to rebuilding it. This spot for now will work wonders.

Still on his usual training high, Shigure wouldn't waste anymore time and began training once more. He couldn't form the cubes one by one... they had to be simultaneously brought forth, and quickly, or this jutsu would be completely useless. Closing his eyes once more, Shigure visualized the amount of chakra needed to preform the technique, as well as how much effort it would take to send it from his body in separate directions, as well as the mental focus to shape each mold of chakra into that of a High pressurized cube. This jutsu was not only mentally exhausting, but could provide a great deal of strain on his body if he wasn't careful.

Beginning the mental process for the jutsu, Shigure focused on his inner chakra, as well as the air current surrounding his body. Forming the handseals, Shigure began attempting to mold his chakra, sending it out of his body, and separating it into ten separate forms. Memorizing the position of each set, the boy began fuzing his chakra with that of his elemental affinity. Each blob of chakra began forming into a crude Cube; it looked hopeful. Without warning, four of the cubes immediately formed into perfect shapes, identical to each other, while the other six would burst, sending sharp gusts of wind in separate directions. Luckily none hit the genin.

"Once more... Focus, Shigure..."

Releasing all the tension in his Body, the young genin began once more, Sending out the allotted chakra whilst performing the necessary handseals required to mold the chakra into its perfect state. Everything seemed to be rolling smoothly, the air pressure in each cube that formed held firm, each cube identical to the rest. Once all ten of the chakra Cubes formed, Shigure smiled with content, none were fluctuating, all were invisible, but one thing still stumped him.

It still took way to long to perform. Ten whole seconds this time around.

Dispelling the technique, Shigure sat in the grassy field. It was the perfect day to train, and the boy didn't want to stop here, he wanted this technique memorized by night fall, which was only hours away. Picking up the book of techniques in his left hand, the fourteen year old began skimming through the pages with his right hand, intent on finding a clue or something to help him in his progress. There was nothing.

"What am I doing wrong..."

Hours the boy sat and stared at the ground, contemplating over what he was doing wrong. He had the technique's main structures down, but he couldn't complete it. Watching a few small ants climb a blade of grass, Shigure was humbled by their existence. Even the smallest creatures in the whole had purpose, as did he. Continuing to watch the team of ants scurry to the top, one would eventually make it. The ant continued on, standing on the point of the blade, it began reaching further, its hind legs balancing it while its front reached for the sky. This amazed Shigure, thinking that even ants knew that their was no barrier to stop at, life was always about reaching for greater heights.

Just then, Shigure fell backwards, the sky now turning dark, the Stars shining bright even though the sky shown a deep red. The sun's rays only peaking through small holes in the nearby forest's canopy. So many stars, yet all were in sync, shining collectively in the night sky. They existed together, just as Human's did; just as chakra did.

This new found wisdom attained by the boy gave him a new found intellect over his chakra. Instead of worrying about the cube's differences, he should focus on their collective power. Shigure jumped to his feet, a smile on his face that deemed him ready to take on the world. Almost immediately he began focusing his chakra, instead of worrying about the separating of the chakra, he'd allow it to flow normally, letting it be the one who separated and formed on its own. With the use of Handseals, the boy allowed the chakra to flow out of his body, into ten identical forms surrounding his being.

Once the wind nature of the Chakra settled, it began forming into the Cube's like last time, each one perfect in its own right.

"Fuuton: High Pressure Air Cube"

It was like a godsend, each cube now radiating around him, each moving on its own. They were invisible, yes, but Shigure could tell where they were by noticing his chakra nature. His hair and shirt began flowing in different directions, as if a gust of wind danced around him. Shigure smiled wildly, laughing at his success. He had completed it, but it still took 8 seconds to complete. He'd have to try again, and this time, hopefully master it in a decent time frame.

After dispelling the technique, the boy began once more. Focusing his chakra, spilling forth the wind nature in his being, performing handeals, allowing the chakra to form itself without forcing it to do his bidding. The cubes formed one after the other in rapid succession, each holding its own force to be reckoned with. He had completed the Jutsu, and it had only taken 3 seconds this time around. He had finally done it. But of course, more training could still be done.

This boy was a perfectionist. While many people would stop and relish the fact that they had accomplished their goal, Shigure shot for a higher mark. Noticing a distinct marking on the scroll he had been given by his predecessor, Shigure knew he could improve this technique, and create more air cubes for his benefit. This jutsu was more than it seemed, and his Sensei's Continuous loop in pen beside the technique had shown him this. Continuing on with his training, Shigure reached up to his next, positioning his headband that displayed the symbol of Takigakure proudly, he began again with his mental contemplations.

Steadying himself on the cool grass that sat parallel to the Night Sky, Shigure began molding his chakra to perform the technique once more. Given that to produce more quantity of an item, more output would be needed, the genin forced more chakra to begin forming in complied spaces around his body. Double of what he had done for the original jutsu. After training so much in this specific nature of Chakra, the boy's own chakra storage had grown, and he wasn't tired in the least. He continued on.

Molding his chakra with that of the wind element, his handseals became second nature now, fling through them with ease, the boy now attempted to double the amount of air cubes, something he had just now accomplished. Attempting to form all 20 cube's ended in failure. Eight of the Cubes had manifested with ease, but the rest were the same spherical blobs that Shigure knew all to well. It would be harder than he had anticipated.

After dispelling the initial attempt, he'd try once more, Shigure's eyes now focused on a point straight ahead of him, though what he would be glaring at, not even he knew. The boy was looking within himself, trying to find the balance of power and performance. His handseals would fly once more, the chakra within him now excreting its way out of his body, molding with the wind that swayed around him. Getting a feel for the technique already, Shigure knew this attempt would end in failure, but it has now become that of trail and error.

Finishing the handseals, Shigure looked around to notice only 13 Cubes were materialized, leaving the other 7 ob longed shapes to float around in a precarious fashion. Without better understanding of the unfinished Cubes, Shigure went to inspect them, to see why they weren't forming. They were highly volatile, that was a given just by looking at them, but Shigure continued forth, wanted to see into them with his own eyes. As he reached the first, he knelt down as it only floated three feet from the ground. It was pressurized, but the pressure was fluctuating, like a water balloon. It had shape, but then again, didn't.

Glaring upon his failure still, the boy smiled. It seemed as though his needed to be forced to solidify by its creator. Using as much as he had been, his chakra was unstable, not because the technique was tough, but the amount of chakra used didn't come natural to the boy. He had finally figured out why there were so many mistakes before he completed the jutsu, and any jutsu he had learned before this. His Chakra needed to be trained.

I lost concentration.

In an instant, all 20 of the cubes Shigure held before him burst simultaneously, sending sharp gusts of wind in every direction around the boy. Immense pain shot into his face from the cube closest to him, the one he so arrogantly held within arms reach. Not only was the boy thrown backwards by the pressure, but small cuts and gashes now painted their crimson marks across his face.

As the boy Fell to the ground after the impact, he'd reach for his face, stopping only inches from it. He couldn't let this mistake bring him down. Shigure stood up, without speaking, and ran through the now imprinted steps the great speed. Flying through the handseals, he now released so much chakra, the wind around him became violent. To truely master this technique, he had to push his Chakra to greater lengths, trying to find his own breaking point.

The Chakra in question now forced itself out of the genin's body, encircling him like the technique insisted. Shigure was unsure as how many Cubes now radiated around him, nor did he care. Releasing more and more chakra only brought forth more attempts at cubes, Shigure could feel them birth out of his chakra now, and the more delicate ones burst around him. This wasn't about how much control over them he had, but the pure force he could bring to them.

"I've always been within a life of leisure, even now I look down on people... I have to change, I have to show people I belong here, I belong as a Shinobi of Takigakure!"

Any onlookers would be amazed at the sight of so many warped spacial figures floating around the boy, each one putting off nearly the same pressure, each blowing the boy's clothes and hair around him in a wild-like manner. It was indeed a sight to behold. But the show was short lived. Soon the chakra stopped its intensity, as did the manifesting of Cubes. They all began bursting from the lack of structure within them, and Shigure was sent through another dance with the sharp gusts of wind.

Shigure fell to his knees afterwards, but the boy still carried a weak grin plastered on his face. It was as he intended to be barraged by this technique. Even though the boy was smart, his training methods were brutal, and this was no exception. Forcing himself to stand once more, he still felt he could keep going, or at least had enough Chakra left to try a few more times. Shigure wasn't going to stop now.

Trying again, the boy had now figured out his limitations, and memorized them. Molding his chakra, the boy took notice of how much of his energy was needed for the jutsu, as if the technique had a dowry. Each movement was hell on the boy, but he had finally figured it out. The handseals flew with relative ease, but his arms felt as if they were going to give at any moment. Finally the moment came to see if Shigure's plan had succeeded or not.

It had, all twenty pressurized air cubes now floated around him, each perfect in their own right, and held no rouge-like tendencies...

..That he knew, for the boy now had dropped the handseals (given way for the Air cubes to cease existence), his arms cascading down with his body, colliding with the earth in a fashion only seen in movies. Shigure was down for the count.

After a night of restful sleep on the cool lawn at the Team's Headquarters. Shigure would be awoken by the soft song of two Blue Jays in the nearby tree line. The boy had become groggy, the hard ground had made his body stiff as well as his hair had made way for a traveling beetle to rest. Knocking the beetle to the ground, Shigure attempted to stand, his joints popping as he did. The boy was way to young to feel like an old man.

Finally focusing on his latest objective, the young boy realized that he had indeed perfected his training regiment for the Air Cubes, but he wanted to make sure that it wasn't just a fluke. Gathering himself, he began the monotonous set of handseals once more. Flying through them with speed, the young genin began pushing his chakra forth, molding and mixing it with his Fuuton affinity.

Thrusting out almost double the amount he needed for his last set of cubes, he gave way for ten more to be placed. Knowing that his chakra was limited at his age, he knew he would have to stop around this level to still have a shot at using this technique in battle. Finishing the handseals, the boy concentrated on only one thing, the creation of his latest project.

It was almost second nature to him now, but indeed, all twenty of the cubes had formed; almost instantaneously. Each cube pulsating its wind nature forth, allowing small gusts of wind to billow Shigure's clothing. Though the cubes held no purpose as they were, the boy knew he could learn more techniques that derived from this particular one. Now it was time to finally begin the second part of his Training.

The morning Dawn set anew the boy's spirit to continue training under the strict supervision of his Late Sensei's handbook. Wanting to follow in the Old Man's stead, Shigure was determined to Master the Fuuton Element before attempting anything else. Which may hurt him greatly in the long run, but he didn't care. It was the least he could do, to ease the alarming anxiety of separation from the Man.

Running headfirst into another set of Jutsu related to the High pressure air cubes, Shigure pick his favorite to train first. Scanning over the page with his right index finger, the young boy read aloud the Jutsu in question: "Fuuton: High pressure Senbon Rain". Gathering the information off the page with relative ease, He'd attempt to retain said information within his teenage mind. Finally content on formulating the jutsu in his mind, Shigure would slip the scroll into his shirt for safe keeping, and finally began practicing one of the most dangerous thing a Shinobi could. Form another jutsu from the basics of a second. If he messed up, it could be harmful to himself.

First things first. Shigure ran through he handseals he had previously memorized, forcing the Chakra within him to mold with his wind affinity. After finding the appropriate measurements within his body, the red-headed genin carefully thrust it out of his body, forming it with the air itself that cascaded so effortlessly around his person. It didn't take long for all twenty of his creations to surround him, swirling and dancing like beautiful building blocks of murder. He was finally ready to perform one of his most reckless endeavors.

Gathering his mental fortitude, Shigure now attempted to force one of the cubes to do his bidding. Choosing the cube at eye level with himself, he'd concentrate intently on said cube. Carefully he'd run through the handseals he had just learned, carefully massaging the chakra within the cube, while breaking it apart within itself, temporarily making the Cube in question highly unstable. The genin's mind was racing with horrible thoughts of not succeeding, his thought process only on failure, and the pain that might ensue. Having pessimistic thoughts while preforming a Jutsu was no where near where his thoughts should be, and the Cube acted accordingly.

A small slip from Shigure suddenly made the Cube fissure down the middle, separating it into two halves. Seeing this the boy ducked for cover at the last minute. Good thing he did, for the cube suddenly exploded in a mighty fury, a large sever of pressurized wind engulfed the dew-covered lawn, spraying water droplets and leaves in every which way possible. "Damn it all to hell!" The boy screamed with anger. Rightfully so as it was his and only his fault that the cube had misfired so easily. If the boy was to master Fuuton, he'd have to get his mind under control.

Seemingly scared to attempt again, the boy stood shakily. He hadn't been so frightened that the Cubes had dispersed, he still had an opportunity with the first set of cubes, now numbered at 19. If by miracle, Shigure picked another cube rather quickly, a small fissure of invisibility that floated easily within the air to the boy's right, shoulder height. Focusing the chakra within the new cube, he'd begin the handseals once more. Blocking out any form of pessimism that held the boy down, he'd begin separating the chakra within the cube.

Multiple small fractures began to form within the cube. -three... five... eight... ten... eleven..- Each sever meant another Senbon was forming, and it seemed to be working, gradually. The semi-transparent lines began separating, rather quicker than Shigure had imagined, quickly forming into Senbon with ease. But something was still flawed, as each Senbon formed, it dropped to the ground before dispersing into the air around him, one after the other, until all twenty of the senbon vanished. For some reason the senbon, unlike the cube, wasn't listening to the the young genin's chakra-esque commands. This would take some looking into.


While allowing the Cubes to rotate gently around him, Shigure reached into his shirt, retrieving the scroll of Fuuton technique's and began reading over the technique once more, hoping to find the reason to this new found problem.

While rummaging through the small scroll given to him as a present by his Sensei, Shigure couldn't help but wonder if all these mistakes he had been making were that of his Sensei's as well. More than likely not, for the old man's Fuuton Style was flawless compared to what the young genin's art was turning up. Thoughts of failure began to form in the young boys mind once again, but he quickly shut them out to prevent any more unneeded problems. First things first; master this technique.

Given that Shigure's separation of the air cube into senbon needles wasn't flawed, he'd now try and formulate why his chakra was reacting so weird to the separation. It could be that the chakra in itself was so strained by dividing that it couldn't hold up its strength any longer, providing the unfinished outcome that had happened before. This could easily be fixed with better concentration on the individual needles themselves, which required more mental prowess than anything. After realizing this, Shigure wondered how stupid people could be ninjutsu specialist, making the boy grin.

Getting into his stance, the boy counted the High pressure air cubes once more to get a better focus on the technique. Eighteen Cubes.... Walking over to the closest one, Shigure began to focus on the ever swirling wind chakra within it. Each Senbon needed care and balance, as well a steady concentration from its user. Shigure began to mold the chakra within, fracturing off each senbon with care, this time, allowing one after the other to fracture off and allow it to maintain its shape. As the first set of senbon broke off, so did the others, all twenty faux-senbon shattered in mid air and fell to the ground. Something was still wrong.

Looking at a cube to his right, Shigure focused solely on it, trying to figure out what was wrong. It only took him a few seconds to finally come to a startling realization. Each Senbon was its own individual, but they couldn't be made with a slow steady pace. The technique was made for high velocity strikes, not careful predictions. The cube was suppose to shatter into senbon and force them flying towards the opponent. Now Knowing this, Shigure's facial features changed from doubt to a steadied glare.

Staring at the cube to his right, the young genin now molded the chakra in a thrusting motion, the cube in question coming alive with activity, bursting alive like a bomb secretly holding shrapnel. The cube now turned into twenty senbon flew towards a nearby tree, impaling it with great force. Shigure didn't know why it took him so long to figure out techniques in this fashion, but he had finally managed the conclusion to this mystery.

Giving it another try, Shigure now focused on the three high pressure air cubes to his left, concentrating on them, moving them closer to each other, while molding the chakra inside. Sweat began to bead down the young man's forehead, silently making its was down to his cheeks, rolling down it place themselves on his chin. In one Thrust of chakra, Shigure sent the Cube's into a frenzy, each one exploding into senbon, directing themselves out into the meadow. It seemed as though It was finally working, Shigure had finally figured out the jutsu that eluded him.

Finally understanding how the Cubes in general work with the related chakra given to them, Shigure didn't stop on his mission to master this tree of techniques. scrolling down to the next segment, the young genin began reading off another technique that tied into the air cubes. The Cubes could be manipulated for personal use, just by solidifying them with this certain technique. Picking this as his next target, the boy gathered all the related information and memorized it with ease. This one seemed easy to him, so he jumped into the training right away.

Focusing on the remaining fourteen Cubes, Shigure went through the necessary hand seals, while forcing extra chakra into five of the nearest cubes. His intentions were simple, just to solidify them for now, different shapes would come later. Feeling the pressure in the wind inside the cubes begin to drop and stagnate meant that the Cubes were attempting the solidification process. The boy had learned from his mistakes, and learned well. Slow and Steady would win over this technique.

Smiling as he began to focus more on the five cubes, Shigure continued the slow process of retaining the cubes shape while allowing them to slow down and form into a solid state. It impressed the boy how easy this was, but something went wrong. Just as they were close to their mark, three of the cubes dissipated. The pressure dropped to quickly and the chakra forced into the cube itself didn't mix right with the initial cube's own storage.

Well now, that wasn't right.

Remaining calm, Shigure's mind now focused on the remaining two. He could at least find the balance before taking on 5 more. Keeping his chakra steady, the auburn-haired teenager quickly retained the cubes strength while slowing the oxygen particles inside to solidify them. It was harder than he thought. Air wasn't suppose to solidify, but he had done this before with another technique in his arsenal, he knew what to do to defy the laws of chemistry.

Given the two added attention, Shigure was well on his way to figuring out the basics of this technique. Only a few more seconds into the mixing of the chakra, did the remaining two cubes finally retain a solidified state. Both cubes were now solid as solid could get. Quick inspection of the cubes by Shigure's hands confirmed the issue. It seemed he had master the technique's quirks, but now to actually see if he could form a shape, at least a small one, out of five of the cubes. Shigure didn't think it would be too hard, but his thought process thus far had been proven wrong.

The suns positioning had changed to directly above the genin's head, making his auburn hair glow with a faint blonde tint on a select few strands. It was already noon. The rays of the sun were quite bright as Shigure stood awaiting to perform another attempt as his new potential technique. The cool breeze swept through the roling grass, dandilion petals difting in the wind across the great ocean of grass. There was just one thing wrong, there was now a young kid standing on the other side of the meadow, in the Semitsu family territory.

Not that being in the Semitsu family territory was at all bad, as no one had maintained this certain part of Takigakure for some time, it was alarming to see a young kid (who was now running towards Shigure) so far away from town. "Hey there! Are you a ninja! I just saw you training and well, I wanna train too! I'm Gessu!" The young boy, now known as Gessu, seemed to want to stick around, and Shigure didn't want any company, not even caring enough to look at the boys appearance. Regardless, Shigure continued to train. "Just step back over by the edge of the woods and you can watch, but don't get too close, you could get hurt."

Great... and audience.

Given the new found kids attention, Shigure couldn't screw up the technique anymore, even though the young genin didn't like to be around people much, unbeknownst to him, he did better with someone watching on. Taking to the technique once more, Shigure began forcing chakra into 5 of the remaining cubes, feeling each one of the chakra filled cubes begin to decelerate as well as solidify gave him hop that this time he would be able to complete the jutsu with ease.

Each block had become as solid as he studied them individually. Now was the time to mold them together. Though he was a decent artist, and was creative to an extent, Shigure only attempted to combine the 5 into a small wall. He was certain this would come in fruition once the cubes began to move together, just a few more feet and the wall would be complete.

"HEY WHAT JUTSU IS THAT!"

All hell broke loose.

Without warning, Shigure jumped as the kid yelled, which made his concentration on the cubes break free, sending them flying in different directions, three out into the meadow and the other two into the woods, breaking down small trees as they flew. Turning to look at the betrayer of trust Shigure seemed violent. His face turning a deep red, he'd stomp towards the kid, enraged. "Why the hell did you just scream... couldn't you have just asked me the question instead of freaking me out?!" "Im sorry..." "Sorry? SORRY?! Sorry doesn't cut it! I was so close to finishing the jutsu!! AHHHH!!" It seemed as though Shigure's frustrations on the technique had surfaced. All the while Shigure yelled his hands flung into the air like a mad man.

"ahhahahahaha!!! Your crazy Mister!"

The kid was laughing at the shinobi. How wonderful. Dropping his temper, Shigure tried once more. Figuring out he didn't have anymore blocks left to preform a wall, he depleted what fe blocks remain and formed twenty new ones. Concentrating on the five furthest away from the kid, the young genin began molding his chakra again. Forcing the chakra into the cubes, They too began to slow down and solidify, as well as move together. Forming the wall with ease, he began to seal the corners so that the outcome was one object, and not five blocks pressed together.

The sealing was difficult, as each block still had a decent amount of pressure within it, and one false move would trigger and explosion of wind. Turning back around to look at the kid, Shigure eyes him like he was prey if the kid said another word. With this look, Gessu's lips pierced together firmly. Each seal began to form together with ease. It seemed Shigure had found his niche with this jutsu. The wall now formed, Shigure stood back to look at his masterpiece in silence.

"A wall? That's dumb... stupid wall making Shinobi..."

"I'm going to kill this kid."
