Kuri Buki (Ice Harden)
Rank: “D”, “C”, “B”, “A”, “S”
Skill: Ninjutsu/Supplementary
Effect: In Description
Special: N/A
Drawback: Learning the ranks of the jutsu requires the specific class to be achieved.
Description: The understanding of this technique allows for a Kaishin user to truly harness the power of ice creation. This technique will determine how hard ice created is. The user must be the same class as the rank of jutsu they wish to learn. This means to learn the B rank version of this technique the user must be B class or higher and so on. At D rank the ice is as solid as regular ice. At C rank the ice is as strong as iron. At B rank the ice is as strong as titanium and cannot be melted with fire techniques below A rank. At A rank the ice is as strong as hard steel and can’t be melted by fire techniques below S rank. At S rank the ice is as strong as adamantine and cannot be melted by fire techniques. This technique is the base of all ice techniques used. The strength of every ice technique depends on this.
Limit: Kaishin Bloodlimit; Water Creation, Ice Creation

It was a pretty nice day I suppose. I somehow could never pay attention to time or weather. It was not of any concern and I was just heading for some training. I really had no idea what else to do and on top of that I hadn’t practiced anything for years. I was clearly out of shape. I walked a while deeper in the outskirts of the city until I found a quiet place with tall grass. I sat there getting used to my surroundings. I was alone and didn’t expect anyone to really come.

I focused on my chakra. I was determined to go deeper into learning the clan techniques. It had been a long time since I created any ice and this time I wanted to learn how to make it hard as …ice. It didn’t seem a hard thing to do. I had to create water and then ice and keep ice until it was solid not just ice and solid water.

I focused on creating a little patch of water and the slowly freezing it. When I had created the ice I touched it to see if it was hard but it just melted right before my eyes. I looked at it disappointed and gave it another shot, focusing more on the ice creation part and it seemed to work until I touched it and saw that it resembled more a plasma nature rather than a solid one.

I understood that somehow I must be distracted and I wasn’t able to really grasp the power of ice creation but also creating ice on the grass might have not been the best idea. I tried to create some ice in my hand while thinking about the texture of ice, its cold shivery feeling and when I was finished I was lucky to see a small piece of hard pure ice in my hand. I had finally succeeded in creating some ice that was actually solid. A big accomplishment for me… but a task that seemed quiet stupid at first.

I knew one success wasn’t enough. It was probably just luck I guess. I kept on practising because, after all, my dad taught me that one time is never enough. I tried creating the ice on the grass surface and then I stood up and stepped on it. It broke which meant it wasn’t by far hard enough. I sat down again and focusing on creating the water on the ground and around the grass then making it turn into ice without leaving any drop of pure water.

When I stepped on it this time it didn’t break, but rather made me slip and fall. Another accomplishment for me. I continued by applying the same technique on my shoes, hands, on a ledge that I had seen and on small rocks until I had succeeded in creating pure ice on anything.

Akiko soared along the skies, riding the thermals rising off the village streets with Archimedes by her side. Aside from a pair of goggles covering her eyes, she had left all her gear at home, not needing it for a casual flight around the village. Akiko wore her usual garb of orange jacket and shoes with grey pants, a simple designed that blended rather well with her fair hair and skin.

All was going well enough until the soft cushion of air caused by differential pressure between the top and bottom of her wing dropped out. It was instantaneous, gone and back in a flash. Quickly, she banked back and looked around for the source of that sudden change in air pressure. Finally, she spotted what seemed to be the source; what seemed to be a young girl practicing ice release.

She pulled up, banking to the left at the same time. The force of gravity slowed her down and tightened her turning radius. She nosed down out of this reasonably advanced flying maneuver, letting gravity accelerate her, using an aileron turn to right herself horizontally in the air. Carefully, she continued to descend, her owl companion by her side.

Still moving at high speed, Akiko slammed hard into the water of a small lake nearby, scattering water into the air. As the water calmed back down, Akiko's head broke the surface of the water near the edge of the lake. Archemedes silently glid down and landed on her head.

I had managed to train my first technique alone. Now it was time for a bit more fun because that had been a bit of hard work. I noticed a young child land on the water surface close to the place I trained, it seemed a bit forced, her landing. Still I had decided to keep on training and talk to her afterwards if she would stick around. I sat in the grass again and thought about what I had to do in order to achieve my goal. The technique would enable me to move around as if I was ice skating. I love ice skating so what can be more fun than this?

I would be able to do that by manipulating the water molecules and chakra underneath my feet. The chakra wouldn’t be such a problem, but for the water I’d need to create water molecules under my feet first and manipulate them into ice at the same time. That could pose a problem. I stood up to give it a try. I figured that I’d do it with eyes closed the first time so I could focus better.

I started focusing the chakra to my feet and slowly creating a thin layer of water under them, and then I kept focused and tried to manipulate them into ice. The effect was a slide, but not by far the one I needed. My feet slid in front of me and I fell on my back breaking the layer of ice shaped like my feet. I figured that clearly I had done something wrong.

Probably it was the fact that I had somehow forgotten the handseals. I tried it again but performing the serpent-dragon-tiger handseals. This time I managed to keep balanced for an instant before falling again. The handseals were definitely needed but something else was wrong: I didn’t really slide and the ice stayed ice behind me instead of being frost.

I figured I could give it one more time. This time after I created the thin layer of water I froze just a part of it and slid my feet in front continuing the layer of water. It felt easy and I reached the young girl that I had seen in no time. I looked behind me and saw lines of frost covering the grass. It was easily trackable indeed but fun and fast if you didn’t mind it.

“Hello I guess. Everything ok?” I said intrigued.

Akiko spit the water out of her mouth and climbed out of the lake, water dripping from her clothes. "I'm ok," she said, shaking the liquid from her blond hair, "I have a lot of landings like that." Akiko was quite skilled at flying, and all the advanced maneuvers that go along with that.

"I'm Akiko, by the way," she said, offering her hand, "Ayumu Akiko. And you are?" She opted not to include her titles, as her ranks of Chunin and former kage should proceed her. If not, she would include them if need be. "And this guy," Akiko added, pointing at the owl sitting on her head, "is Archimedes. He's a grouch." The ages owl ruffled his feathers, pecking Akiko on the head in indignation.

“ I’m Angie Clarr. It’s quiet something that you can fly really. And your pal is just adorable!” I said smiling at the girl in front of me. I knew who she was but I chose to ignore it. It would be too awkward otherwise.” I was just practicing some technique. It’s pretty fun. “

I then again focused the chakra to my feet and formed the thin layer of water and slid towards my initial point freezing just the back of the water. I felt again a thin layer of frost on the grass. I was starting to get the hand of it until I stopped and fell face down.

“I’m still a beginner. Am I bothering you?” I said embarrassed to Akiko and slid back towards her following the previous steps carefully. I tried to freeze just the back of my feet at the stop so I won’t slide face front again. I kept sliding back and forth trying to get the hand of things and looking carefully at the young girl. That was such an unexpected encounter.

I knew that being a patrol all my life wouldn't be satisfying. I had to get stronger. I wanted to meet someone to train with, especially now that I learned a GenJutsu perception. I headed to the outskirts of the city. It was the first time in a long time I had gone out during the day.

As I was walking through the tall grass, I saw a weird trail of ice. Right then a girl fell on her face. I wanted to help her but she rushed back to where she came from. I followed the trail and found the girl with another one. I came near them and said: "Hi I'm Toni! Am I interrupting?"

[Corvus]

Akiko giggled, "It's quite alright," she said, clapping her hands together. "I'm actually quite skilled myself, I'd be happy to teach you a few things." As her hands came together, every drop of excess moisture burst from her clothes and hair, from the surface of her skin, leaving her as dry as if she had never touched the lake. The droplets of water floated, suspended in the air around her.

Each droplet refracted light from the warm sun, like a thousand diamonds suspended in the thin mist that was ever present in the village. After floating aimlessly for a short while, she let them drop, falling to the ground like a miniature rainstorm. Akiko smiled brightly in the obscuring fog, an eternally young face in the village's perpetual haze.

It was around then that a young man appeared. "I'm Akiko," Akiko said kindly, returning the greeting, "Ayumu Akiko, Chunin." This time, she decided to give her current rank, though she opted to leave out her former roll as Godaime mizukage. If he already knew, if either of them did, it was fine, but there was no need to broadcast that right now. As for whether or not he was interrupting, Akiko didn't answer that, leaving it up to Angie.

[Angie Clarr]

I looked at the new boy. There was certainly something sad, maybe even lonely about him. I didn't know what his deal was and I wouldn't pry. " You are not interrupting" I said smiling at him. "Anyway it's not like it is a private property. Nature is for all of us." I turned and looked at Akiko. She was clearly younger than me, but she seemed so much more experienced. Chunin of course...and much more.

"Akiko... I'd really appreciate your help. And don't get me wrong I could really use it....but I do tend to be quiet clumsy and I don't wannabe be a burden ya know?" I shyly touched the snowflake tattooed on my face and thought of my clan and it's history.. Did she know ? My emotions have always been so easy too read.

Then, I realised. " Oh my gosh! I'm sorry I forgot to introduce myself!" I bowed in front of Toni who was apparently older than me. "I'm Angie Clarr. Nice to meet you!"

[Toni Snakes]

"Hi, nice meeting both of you." I said bowing in respect of Akiko's rank and Angie's bow. "I would like some help me with my training too, if it's not too much to ask. I want to train in the art of GenJutsu, and I would like a real target to practice on."

After I said it, I realised that it would be strange if someone walked up to me and said that. Either way, I had to finish my proposal. "Oh, and don't worry, it's not going to hurt at all. Only maybe scare you if I succeed. So, what do you say?"

[Corvus]

Akiko chuckled, giggled even, as if privy to some secret information. "I'd be happy to help the both of you," she said. "It might be a bit difficult for one of me to help you both though, and to be honest, I don't know much about genjutsu. Still, I think I have a solution." Akiko spread her white wings, then wrapped them around her body.

A great light began to spread from her body, building to an apex. Once the luminosity climaxed, Akiko boosted the light further and spread her wings wide, at the same time splitting her soul in half, under cover of the light, creating a second self, as much real clone, as real as her other self. "One for each of you." The two Akiko said in unison.

"Don't worry about scaring me though," one Akiko said as she approached the young man, folding her wings back behind her, "I've seen things that would turn your hair white, you don't have to worry." The other Akiko walked towards Angie, "don't worry about being a burden, I'm happy to help. "I actually have a mission I'm leaving for tomorrow, if you would like to learn on the road."

[Angie Clarr]

I was stunned by what the young girl had done. She was indeed amassing...and to think I had trouble in creating ice. I looked at her and somehow I felt like I could trust her with my life if I had too.I blinked repeatedly to readjust to the misty air and light. I kind of became self concious about my eyes. Did they not find the difference in colours weird?

"It'd be great if I could join! But truth be told I never trained with anyone else than my dad and all...so you might need to teach me that first." I said shyly and formed a small cube of ice in my hand and started to play with it. God I was so nervous,but ice always made me comfortable.

Akiko seemed like an angel to me. She was adorable. And the boy...well he definitely had my attention. I looked Toni's way. Genjutsu he had said. It wasn't something I had any experience in. But I heard it was pretty tricky. " Good luck!" I yelled to him and threw him the small cube of ice smiling.

Magen: Narakumi no Jutsu (Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique)
Rank: "D" "C" "B" "A" "S"Rank
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: A Genjutsu in which causes the opponent to see a grand horrifying vision. A Technique that is used by most of the ANBU kind but is known for all GenJutsu users in order to scare their opponents greatly hoping to perhaps make them run off in fear.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: The GenJutsu Non Specialist is only capable of learning up to the "B" Rank version of this technique. Depending on the Rank of the technique is dependent on how well, how far, as well as how large the user is capable of using this technique.
Description: The user creates and holds the rat handsign. As the user does, so the figment of leaves begins to circle all around in circular fashion as the opponent is engulfed into the GenJutsu. Then the technique takes in place as what the user wishes the opponent to see they are capable of seeing. The figment however has to be considered a horrifying state of creation. When first learned the user is capable of creating horrifying images within Tiny to Small size. The user is also capable of creating an image within a Twenty-Meter radius of the user. When the user learns the "C" Rank version, they are capable of creating Medium to Large Size horrifying creations with a distance of Thirty Meters in radius of the user. "B" Rank allows them to create a Huge Size horrifying creation with a distance of Forty Meters. "A" Rank allows them to create a Gargantuan Size horrifying creation with a distance of Fifty Meters. "S" Rank allows them to create a Horrifying image of Sixty meters. If the user is a GenJutsu Specialist by the time, they learn the "B" Rank version of the technique the user is capable of creating the image without the figment of leaves as a basis. With a GenJutsu Master, the user is capable of creating the figment image without the figment of leaves as a basis when they learn the "C" Rank version of the technique. NonSpecialist will always create the figment of leaves.
Limit: Must know Pattern Perception, GenJutsu Specialist is capable of going into all ranks of this technique.

I caught the cube of ice in my hands. I was amazed that she could make ice out of anything. After a few seconds the coldness reminded me to concentrate on my training. I dropped the cube and turned to concentrate to the Akiko I was supposed to train with.

I knew that I couldn't do much with a technique as basic as the one I was trying to learn. What came to my mind is replicating the opponent's eye as a tiny opaque image in front of one of their eyes. Also, I knew that I should see a figment of leaves whirling around the target, so that's what I was expecting as a first feedback. I sat on the grass and started holding the rat handsign.

At first, no matter how much I tried, I couldn't do anything. Maybe I had to try something simpler. This time I would create the image of a tiny opaque black disk in front of one of Akiko's eyes. The second time I tried, already tired, I managed to see one single leaf falling lazily to the ground. Bingo!

After resting a couple of minutes, I formed the rat handsign and started concentrating again. After a few tries, I managed to get a few leaves to whirl slowly. Even after I got extremely exhausted, I kept trying until I was sure it worked.

Now that I learned the basics, I still wanted to replicate the user's eye instead of the plain ol' disk, so that I could give it more effect. Of course that only happened after a break when I relaxed with the ice cube that somehow managed not to melt on the ground.
I started concentrating again and managed to get a few leaves after the first try. I was so motivated that I continued until the figment of leaves became...well..perfect in my opinion.

I got off the ground, stretched and said: "Thank you for your patience, you really helped a lot. I hope I can repay you someday." Then I just started laying on the grass, waiting for Angie to finish her training as well.

Try and be a bit more descriptive with how you are actually doing the technique.

[Corvus]

One Akiko stood still and let the young man try his genjutsu, though it inevitably failed. She wasn't particularly impressed. Then again, she had no idea how to use genjutsu, really, so for all she knew, he was doing quite well. It had been quite a while since she had been at his early developmental stage, long before she had graduated from the academy, so clearly he lacked her borderline OCD training patterns from back then.

The other Akiko smiled at Angie, "I'd love to help train you," she said kindly. She didn't have too much experience training others, as her animal companions were fairly self-sufficient. "Is there anything you'd like to start with?" She asked, folding her wings behind her for a moment.

The first Akiko, the one who was helping with genjutsu, walked over to the attempted practitioner of the illusionary arts. "Is that really all? A couple leaves might disorient someone momentarily, but once it ends, they'll likely get their bearings right back." Clearly, something wasn't right with the genjutsu.

" Well umm...there's this wind technique that would seem fun to learn I guess.... but I never figure out what I really do wrong when I train. Maybe you could watch and gimme tips or something." I said insecurely playing with my hair. It got tangled so fast.

I looked at the ground and started thinking being oblivious to anything around me. I had to performer the handselas first, which is obvious, and then I should extend my palm under me and form a ball of wind. Sounds easy...but I was pretty sure I would mess up.

I had forgotten the presence of others around me and so I performed the handseals. I extended my palm under me and waited... then I realised I didn't even bother to focus chakra in my wind release. I started focusing and a small ball of wind formed. It was about the size of a tennis ball.

I looked at Akiko and then at Toni and suddenly aware of their presence. I started blushing and laughing embaressed. Toni seemed to really have it easy while learning. I wish it were easier for me. I kind of admired his enthusiasm and wish to become stronger to be honest. I gave it another try. "Handseals, horse, serpent, extend your palm, focus on the wind, focus, keep focusing Angie..." I thought to myself. My attempt was more successful this time. It was the size of a volleyball!

"Gosh I am miserable! Bloody hell!" I said annoyed when an identical attempt had resulted in a table tennis sized ball of wind. Annoyed and walked a bit away from the people I had met and tried again. I performed the handseales, extended my palm under me and with the eyes closed. When I opened my eyes a ball of wind the size of a beach ball had been formed.

" Akiko! Look! Look! Seems big enough right?" I yelled after the angelic looking young girl. I was so excited about succeeding. I carefully sat on it and dumbly smiled.
