Having all seeing eyes was an important aspect of being a Hyuuga. Taking a moment to absorb his surrounding, Naruka first observed with out his byakugan. Looking about the busy streets of the forzen city, He failed to see anything of value. Preparing his visual prowess, he held his pointer and middle finger up before his face. Gathering chakra into his eyes, Naruka began to focus on activating his Byakugan. Heeling a sudden pulse of chakra in his facial chakra system he opened his yes muttering to himself the name of the technique "byakugan". He slowly opened his eyes to a new outlook.

As he now looked into the crowd, he began to understand the visual prowess of the byakugan. For each person that wandered past him, their chakra systems sat revealed. "Wow..." He muttered to himself as he began to observe how each person's chakra flowed. He first looked at a simple fellow that walked down the street innocently. He must have been a non-ninja, due to te fact that his centralized chakra was not being utilized. The fellows flow was also very different from his own active flow. He again pondered around the crowd looking for someone new to observe. He pivoted his head to the side as a uniformed shinobi came into veiw.

He he began to analyze the shinobi's chakra flow. The blue strings of flowing energy was much different in the shinobi opposed to the non-ninja. This fellow obviously knew how to control his chakra. The flow was also much more rapid than that of the untrained man. This was an easy way to tell the difference in abilities to mold chakra. Sighing he looked for more aspects to analyze in the shinobi. He took note of a few of the nodes where the chakra swelled. Prodominently in the center of the body, this node in the stomach must be the center of chakra flow in the body.

Naruka began to feel the drainage of his chakra that extended use of the byakugan brought on. It was not painful, yet his body began to feel drained. Taking a last good look at the shinobi, he came to realize that there were also wells of chakra in the hands and eyes. Was this how the dojutsu worked, he wondered as he deactivated the byakugan. Taking a slow breath, he began to recollect himself. He rolled his neck as he continued on to the gym for his daily work out.

The byakugan's pure observations prowess was quite useful. The young Hyuuga found this to be true when again preparing to further observe chakra flow. He took a deep breath and placed his right hand before his face. Holding his index and middle finger up, he focused chakra into his eyes. Feeling the rush of energy flowing to his eyes, he began to feel the veins in his face bulge. He opened his eyes with as sudden flash.

His chalky white eyes looked about the training field in pure interest. Observing the ninjutsu being used by the shinobi below, he began to further understand the meaning of chakra control. Naruka began to realize how chakra was infuse with the element, making the Jutsu possible. The blue threads that represented chakra also flowed into the body at different places. Depending on the Jutsu used.

Naruka began to noticed the subtle to major differences. In fire ninjutsu, the chakra was built up in there stomach. That being the chakra center, intensified the chakra into then hot fire displayed. Lightning was similarly preformed, except for the fact that it travels along the chakra network. Using the chakra flow as wires. Water styles were formed in the throat and chest. Using moisture in the surrounding air to create their techniques. Earth styles were the most unorthodox of the sorts. Naruka found them to be he hardest to understand.

Earth style techniques seemed to use a multitude or portions of the chakra network. Using the observant byakugan, he noticed that the hands and feet did a majority of the work. The combination of both Physical and mental energies was most present in the earth style. He felt a slight amount of strain as he continued to watch. Taking energy from the center of chakra, the user translates the chakra into their feet, mouths, or hands. Sighing with fatigue he releases his Byakugan. Feeling his veins retract, Naruka sighed. He continued to observe as the day continued on.

Naruka found each time he used the dojutsu, the more he noticed. His overall observational prowess began to improve as he stood quietly in the middle of the training training field. The cool snow blew lightly around him as he began to focus his chakra into his eyes. Holding his middle and index fingers up before his face. He began to feel the slight tingle of the chakra flowing into his eyes. He quietly opened his eyes as the Byakugan activated.

The veins around his eyes began to bulge as he took a look around the apparently empty field. He scanned the field from right to left, looking for any traces of chakra. Noticing only a small hint of chakra a good distance away, he began to observe more intently. He focused in on the source of the chakra as the snow continued to fall. "What is that?" He asked as he began to make out a pair of humanoid chakra networks. They both appeared to be acting in a stimulated manner. Were the pair under some sort of genjutsu he wondered as the pair of networks moved about. He slowly came to realize what he was looking at. "Ugh...yikes" he muttered looking in the other direction.

After having seen something fairly vulgar, he decided that his efforts would be better spend locating certain chakras. He looked over his complete range of vision for his sisters chakra. She had to be around here somewhere after all. He noticed other subtle chakras, yet he could not detect the chakra he had Ben searching for. Sighing he began to deactivate his Byakugan. He would still need to improve their ability to sense chakras and having visual range. He felt a light tap on his shoulder. Turning around to find his Nara Sibling, he jumped a little. "Looking for me?" She asked as he began to shake his head. "Yeah..." He sighed as he the snow began to pick up.

Prapai Lom Singkorn (Straight Punch)
Rank: "D" Rank, "D" Rank Variations (first training)
Skill: TaiJutsu
Effect: A powerful, straight punch thrown with the rear hand.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Picture The Boxer Throws the straight right punch and twists the body by that punch, stepping with the right foot forward. The Boxer must consider about the distance between him and the opponent. The target is the chin or the heart of the opponent. This trick is used for attack, defense, or escape. If used for attack use both left and right alternately. The Straight Punch is one of the heaviest punches in all of Muay Thai. It can be used in attack and defense. If used properly it can stop your opponent right in his tracks. However if used at the wrong moment it may put the boxer in a difficult situation because if the punch misses the target the boxer will have wasted a lot of energy and will be left exposed to a counter attack. The strength of this punch comes from moving the foot forward and from the transfer of force from the leg to the moving body and finally to the fist. To further enhance the power in his punch the boxer must twist his hips, waist, and shoulder while punching. The result is a very powerful blow that draws upon the boxer's weight, the muscles of the feet, legs, hips, waist, and shoulders, and the proper technique in releasing the punch for its forcefulness.
Variation: Full Body Straight Punch - This straight punch uses the force of gravity thrown in the perpendicular plane. The boxer throws himself forward and the momentum of his falling body is added to the punch making it very powerful. To practice this punch, start by standing at ease with guards up. Then move either foot forward and use the rear leg to push the body forward, similar to falling forward towards the target. The momentum from this movement transferred to the arm and fist, giving the punch its characteristic power. When connecting against the opponent's torso area will stun the opponent for 2 movements.
Variation: Over the Shoulder Straight Punch - This punch is released by a sudden jerking and twisting of the body. It derives its power solely from the muscles and is less powerful than the other versions of the straight punch. It is best used in close fights and emergencies. When the punch is thrown with the left hand, the right hand is automatically jerked backwards. As a result, the muscles of the shoulder, back, stomach, waist, and the two legs will work together transferring the weight from one side of the body to the other. This twist of the body prepares one for an over the shoulder punch with the right hand. This twist should be practiced so that one is comfortable throwing the over the shoulder punch using the twist of the body and the corresponding transfer of body weight as the source of the punch's power. This technique hits as a "B" Rank technique instead of the basic "C" Rank.

To Protect: Brushes it with the fist or the arm which in the front, if the opponent boxer is a right handed fighter, the user will use the left fist or the left arm to swipe the punch out to the left side. (If user knows The Cross/The Straight in Boxing, or Cross-Body Punch in Krav Maga the user does not have to learn the base Technique.)
Limit: Must learn from a Muay Thai Master.

Naruka finally decided to find time to visit the gym. His trainer Yesumi was an extremely hardened woman. As soon as he walked into the open training facility, the woman pointed at the ground. Naruka understood what she meant by the gesture. Getting on the ground, he began to preform warm-up push-ups. "Nice to see you too." He said as he easily raised and lowered his body. Feeling the tension in his triceps and core as he pushed. He quickly completed an easy set of twenty push ups. "Now we are ready to train." She said leading him back towards the room that housed the punching bags.

He nodded as he stood before the punching bag in the proper stance. Bouncing on his toes, he began to visualize his punching choice for the drill. He tightened his fists as he began to strike the bag. Naruka Threw his body's weight into the right handed punch as he quickly aimed his hit for the center of mass of the bag. Feeling the first strike make contact against the sand bag, he quickly threw a lighter left handed punch. "Make sure to twist your shoulder as you punch." His instructor critiqued as he again began to initiate another punch. He launched a similar punch, this time twisting his shoulder with the stoke. Placing his leading right foot forward, he quickly made a decent amount of contact with the bag. Feeling the Crack of his bare knuckles, he came to realize that he would need to condition his fists more.

He continued to strike the bag. His instructor nodded. "Welp now that you seem to have that down, let's do some pull-ups!" She exclaimed pushing her student over to the pull up bar. "Fun...just give me a sec" he said pulling himself into a hanging position. He began to meditate on his punches as he initiated his first pull up. Feeling a a tightness in his core and triceps, he came to realize that the reason for all the crazy training was specifically for building physical arm strength for creating punches more effectively. He reveled in the thought of improving his hits by creating more physical muscle. He pulled himself up into another pull up as his teacher began to set up the punching bag again.

Having completed 20 pull-ups, Naruka climbed down from the bar. Positioning himself before the punching bag again, he got into the Muay Thai stance. He extended his arm out into a punch. Leading with his right foot. He twisted his shoulder as his fist struck the bag. His arms felt great from the workout as well. The extension of his arm in this manner felt extremely natural as the bag sung with the force that struck the center of the bag. He quickly delivered a light follow up left punch. Naruka grinned as he struck the bag. He again moved his right foot into the leading position, extending his arm with a twist of the shoulder as he struck the bag towards the higher portion of the bag. Signing he stepped back and began to bounce on his toes. He was ready to continue his daily workout.

Naruka had spent a good hour observing the snowy field just outside of the village. He continued to use the visual prowess of the Byakugan to see further detail than before. Where one might just see a plan snowy field, Naruka saw life. The presence of the snowy white family of rabbits caught his attention as he looked over the field. Their white pelts made the hares hard to follow as he observed their habits. He noticed that it continued to remain still as the snow began to pile around it. He sighed at the pure boring nature of the animal, he decided to look beyond the little creature and into the distance.

He observed the snow trees that represented the land that he inhabited. Noticing the chips along the trunks of the trees, he determined that beavers lived in the area. The tracks also indicated that creatures had been active recently. He noticed all of the blustery wind as well. Taking a deep breath, he decided to continue to look out into the distance further. He noticed a wooden home that sat comfortably at the tree line. Someone probably lived there he thought as he prepared to investigate further. The sun was bright on the white snow as he took his first steps.

Naruka continued to take in the scenery as he approached the cabin. He observed the open scenery and began to approach. As he prepared his next foot fall, he suddenly looked down to find an active bear trap. Almost placing his foot right onto the metal jaws, he quickly stopped himself. Feeling a bead of sweat rolling down his brow, the young Hyuuga finally decided that he would need to be more careful as he approached.

He looked at the cabin and began to observe the structure itself. The wooden home was simple at the very best. It's front door was a simple wooden sliding door. Taking a moment to knock, Naruka awaited to see who lived here. He looked at how simple the structure was, and decided that the fellow that lived there must emulated his home. Hearing a slight crack, Naruka quickly turned to find himself face to face with a bow wielding individual. He had the bow drawn and aimed upon his homes invader.

Taking in every detail of the man that now threatened him. The young Hyuuga raised his hands in surrender. This fellow was obviously a hunter by the looks of his attire. His fur cloak and leather accouterments helped him determine that this fellow was indeed a woodsman. His scruffy Beard gave him a more placid look. "Hi there." He said as he began to look over the weaponry that the fellow carried. He obviously had a bow, Naruka observed as the fellow pointed it right in his face. He also noticed a back quiver stationed on his back. Taking a deep breath, he introduced himself. "I'm Naruka...sorry for impending on your home." He said apologetically as he continued to look over the hunter.

Now he was observing his chakra flow as well as his equipment. His still active Byakugan helped him decipher the smooth flow of his chakra. The blue veins of energy seemed to be flowing at a normal rate. This meant that he was not being externally afflicted. Looking up with his vein covered face, he awaited the hunters response. "Your fine....just can't have everyone snooping around though can we." The hunter said placing his now back over his shoulder. Naruka took note of the fact that his arrow had been armed with a broad headed arrow. This meant that the fellow had intended to kill him if need be. Sighing he continued to listen to the hunter as he spoke.

"So in apology for almost impaling ya, how's about some grub on me?" The older gentleman said with a now jovial smile. Not sure how to react, Naruka subtly nodded his head in agreement. "Um sure." He said in astonishment as he began to look at the features of the home again. They were not just simple, but homey. Taking a last good look at the forest outside, he began to look for more traps before he entered the unknown. He noticed a tripwire to his right, as well as a pitfall like trap to his leafy a good ten meters. There were also bear traps placed periodically throughout the forest. Feeling confident that he knew where most everything was, Naruka deactivated his Byakugan and stepped inside the door of the cozy cabin.

Naruka was welcomed by a warm heat as he entered the cabin. It was much larger than it appeared from the exterior. Taking in all the sights, he hoped that he would find out a bit more about his mysterious host. The young Hyuuga noticed that well stocked kitchen. It was full of vegetables and chopped meats. Stained blood covered the butchers block that lay in the middle of the kitchen. The main living room housed numerous mounted heads and a lite hearth. This fellow was obviously an avid hunter.

Naruka further investigated as he followed the hunter into his home. "Names Gimli." He said stroking his small beard as he took a seat in one of the well cushioned chairs. Naruka looked about the room and also found a number of bear traps hanging from his walls. "So you placed all of these traps did you?" Naruka asked as he sat across from Gimli. "A few, honestly those are some of the many that I find." He said pointing at the traps. Naruka found a slight sense of ease, but felt uneasy in the presence of this fellow. He looked about the room once more.

He looked over to the bow hanging over the mantle piece with a large bundle of trap wire. Naruka strongly believed that this fellow had set all of those traps by the things he housed in his home. "So thanks for having me into your lovely home." The young white eyed fellow said as the hunter began to take his quiver off. "Anything for the hunt." He said with a sly smile. Naruka winced at the comment. That was an extremely odd thing to say after all. He still couldn't put two and two together. Feeling a sense of unease, he continued to sit in the chair. Sighing , he continued to stay alert.

Naruka began to feel even more in easy as he began to notice the traps within the home. The rigged explosive attached to the front door told him that the fellow was not accustom to company. He began to look for an exit as the fellow turned his chair to look at the Hyuuga. "What's your opinion on hunting." The hunter asked as Naruka looked at the maimed pelts that lined the floor. "Well, I believe we need to eat...so yeah..." He said in a meek response. The vibe that he got from the hunter was extremely weird. Taking a moment to prepare himself for action, he began to overlook the hunters dress. When he quickly reached inside of his hunters frock, Naruka dove behind his chair. A dart launched at the location for which he had been sitting.

If he had not been paying attention, Naruka would now be skewered. "What the hell?!" He exclaimed as he eyed the explosive trap on the door. He needed to avoid the trap if there was any hope of surviving. Quickly diving for his own weapons, he drew one of his blades in a sloppy manner. Looking across the corse floor, he desperately looked for something to help. Moving his feet before thinking, the young fellow dashed for the butchers block. Narrowly avoiding another cross bolt, Naruka was now on edge.

" yes, this will be quite the hunt!" The hunter exclaimed as he began to reload. Naruka eyed everything in the kitchen. What to do? He noticed how loose the butchers block was in all actuality. Sensing a small draft, Naruka began to push the block out of the way. He reveled a small hole that seemed to fall into darkness. Seeing no way out, he swiftly took the leap of faith. He noticed the sound of dripping water as he fell down into the chilled cave. The maniacal laughter of the hunter could still be heard in the background as he descended into darkness.
