Michiko sat silently for a few minutes on an abandoned tree stump just outside of town. Her expression was one of absolutely nothing , a vacant stare of having spaced out completely. Minutes dragged by with no change. The wind whipped around nearby trees rustling the leaves but otherwise no legitimate change to the surroundings. Michiko's eyes suddenly came into focus. If someone could 'see' genjutsu they might get a feel for what was going on, a 'preprogrammed' instance had been activated in michiko's brain. For the next few minutes she spent talking to absoutely no one, or more accurately to someone who wasnt there. An old friend from when Michiko was a child. Someone who was there when she was initiated into the soulcaster arts. The man was a master of genjutsu and soulcaster arts, and had "preloaded" various training sessions into some people he'd taught things to. Michiko could see him, but he otherwise only existed in her head. After a while of conversation Michiko turned to the non-existant person with a serious expression.


"So I’m looking to get better with ‘the arts’ we were taught growing up. I’m rusty so start with the basics. I need to learn a few new tricks." Michiko stated facing her old Shaman friend. Remaining silent her friend places his palm on her forehead and closes his eyes for a few moments. ”I see. Terribly lacking. Then how about this." He states releasing his touch on her head. ” I will teach you a handful of things and we will go from there. Lets try a technique that lets you weaken your foes physical abilities." Michiko nods in agreement.




”This one is basic. Bring your mind to a focus. Visualize your soul energy vibrating gently, like a low ripple in the water. As you prepare the technique, pull the energy through your body into a mass towards the front of your hands. Once you’re ready to activate the technique, feel the energy leave your body and rapidly focus it on your opponent. You want to use your own soul energy to tear away at the opponents , but instead of intending to destroy them you’re intending to maim their ability to move." The shaman explained as he took a step back signaling he was going to be the target to test on. Michiko nodded and closed her eyes. Keeping a clear mind she visualized her own soul energy as an aura around her. Watching the thin aura that remained motionless she scrunched her face a little as she focused on moving the energy around. Slightly different than manipulating chakra, the soul energy didn’t always respond the same way. To anyone who could see chakra and soul energy the soul energy within her began to undulate gently at different points on her aura stream. The energy around her being slightly harder to control than usual she began to realize how out of practice she was. 

Almost as if she’s in rem sleep her eyes begin darting around like she’s watching something, in reality she’s trying to focus on stabilizing her aura. She knew how to perform the technique that tore apart an opponents soul, but just disabling them? That required a little more finesse than she’d been trained with in this aspect. The aura around her fluctuated as she maintained focus on creating an overall flow of slowly pulsing energy. For a few moments it stabilized and she took this opportunity to act. Bringing both arms up to her chest and flinging them forward she mentally pushed the soul energy down through her arms and into her hands to release a thin but invisible beam of energy , that from a 3rd party perspective would appear more like a single beam that came from a point between the two hands than the hands themselves should anyone be able to actually see the energy. The beam lurched forward at a much slower speed than Michiko thought it should and as it reached the shaman it connected with his own already prepared aura of soul energy. The two clashed and Michiko’s beam fell short of doing anything spectacular.

”Superb. This time when you make connection try to impress the concept of “slowing down” on my soul." The shaman stated with an almost surprised sound in his voice. Michiko did not feel like her usage was “superb” but who was she to argue? Nodding she repeated the process of trying to stabilize her aura. Struggling only slightly less she attempted to maintain focus on the objective as the energy picked up speed. The points of excitement scattered around her vibrating aura did not stabilize as easily this time though but it was not enough of a problem to stop this attempt. Again her arms came up and again they flung forward. The soul energy lept out and touched the shamans soul aura with a faint zapping sensation. At the moment of energy connection Michiko’s face scrunched in concentration again as she tried to visualize the target slowing down to a crawl. Her attempt was interrupted by a boisterous laughter from the shaman. ”Excellent! Excellent! You’re getting the hang of it. You’ll do well!" He beamed. His student was a quick study and this impressed him.

Rohiko was out and about running about for her exercise runs as she came across some weird woman that she was not familiar with within the stony land that she had come across. Stopping for a moment, she quickly stopped and began to get into her fighting stance that held a left handed lead with her strong right hand at the back. As she shadow boxed a mock version of advancing in the stance, she threw a few quick jabs in order to get the feel for moving in the stance. It was very interesting movement to say the least as her body shifted with her body. “Hmm weird.” She said to herself as she advanced slowly towards the person who seemed to be talking to themselves. Rohiko made sure to keep her fighting stance up as she wanted to make sure that she wasn’t going to get clobbered by this random person in the woods. Her muscles began to tighten as she prepared to think for combat if she had to.



“Who are you?” She asked as she lowly made her way forward in the combative battle stance. Her gaze never broke as she prepared for any sort of combative move the person could deliver. The woman was definitely a different looking person for sure. She felt uneasy as she kept her fits up and at the ready. “What are you doing here?” she asked confused as to what was going to happen in the next few moments. Combat was definitely a likely hood if the woman was wearing any gear that indicated her as a shinobi. Rohiko tried not to look shaken as she slowly advanced some more pressing forward with her back foot and directing herself with her front foot. “please respond please.” Rohiko urged as she allowed herself to calm her breathing down a little bit as she prepared for combat. She closed herself down as she brought her stance into a prepared version of battle as she knew that she might have to react at a moment’s notice.

Michiko stood staring at an empty spot for a few moments nodding along as if listening to someone, when another person showed up. Her eyes blinked a few times and quickly snapped to attention as the young girl approached. The girl looked on edge. Michiko must have missed something as the girl was standning and moving in a manner that conveyed she'd said something and not received a response. Looking the girl over however Michiko couldnt help but grin. Stepping away from the stump she'd sat at previously Michiko slowly approached the girl. Michiko's body was covered mostly by a large cloak that when not tampered with closed around her only showing her head. But as she very slowly approached the onlooker she reached through the cloak and unclasped it and let it drop behind her. Continuing forward only for a moment and then stopping in her tracks Michiko stood straight but with no combat stance. The grin still on her face she looked over the girl once more.

Michiko stood at a very short just under 5' tall. Her body appearing in peak physical condition was over-glossed by the fact that she appeared to be wearing a SKIN TIGHT layer of silver metal that covered her entire body. Michiko wore BDU trousers but nothing else. Feet, Hands, Arms, torso, everything but a portion of her face and her hair appeared to be covered by this metal. If one looked at her for more than a glance it was obvious the "skin tight" silver metal was either so form fitting it was painted on, or it was in fact her skin. As michiko's only clothing was a pair of pants this appearance was disturbing by some standards, and almost erotic by others. Michiko appeared to not be carrying any gear. Removing her headband which bore the hidden village of the stone symbol she tucked it away in her pants pocket in a slow and obvious manner as if to show this had nothing to do with villages.

"Have you come to train with me?" She stated with a heavy flirting purr , almost like that of a lover teasing her mate. But Michiko gave no chance to respond as she disappeared in a blurring flash kicking up much dirt , rocks and leaves as she Shunshin'd forward. Appearing only a few feet away with her arms up and back slightly crouched as if she's moving in to strike. Michiko's movements however left many wide spread openings. Anyone trained in any kind of taijutsu should easily see various striking opportunities as the girl approached. Michiko was fast, but had slowed down enough upon approach to leave openings for strikes. Should the girl respond and strike, her hits would almost assuredly land but would clang against steel skin. Michiko hadnt brought her full defense up so the steel skin would only provide minimal protection as she was going to let the opponent strike her a few times. If the opponent did not take the chance to strike michiko's movements instead simply followed and swiped with sub-par level striking.

If the opponent however did engage and traded blows, Michiko's strikes were simply not hard enough to land a damaging hit as she didnt put any power behind them. At most an antagonizing slap here or a poke in the ribs there. She attempted to get the opponent to strike back and when hit Michiko simply either took the blow or rolled partially with it still allowing most of it to hit. As the opponent struck Michiko occasionally dodged, but rarely, and attempted to side step the strike. Afterall, she couldnt make it too easy. But when the hits landed Michiko simply stood and took the blow, attempting to brace herself for the hit but not utilizing her steel skin's full potential. She needed to feel the strike but didnt need it to be a lethal one. During the sparring session Michiko made no attempts at communication, but did visibly appear as if she was attempting to have fun and simultaneously annoy the other girl enough into making strong heavy strikes. As the training progressed Michiko simply randomly evaded, randomly struck out to slap playfully and randomly took full force the strike.

Once or twice during the training Michiko strikes out considerably stronger than she'd been striking and attempted to land a full strength punch to the opponents ribs or chest. The strikes are interlaced with many more "play strikes" that arent meant to hurt but layering them in with ones that are Michiko hopes to land a few surprise strikes that catch the opponent off guard and add a little spice to the match.

Description: Starting Position Left-leg-forward fighting stance. Making a Fist Roll your fingers tightly so that there is no space. Seal your thumb tightly over your fingers near the first knuckle. Do not put your thumb inside your fingers.
Limit: Must learn from a Master of Krav Maga.

Rohiko didn't know how to respond. "Um sure i guess..." She said with a sigh as she quickly got into her fighting stance and began to throw basic jabs at the woman. She felt her fists fly randomly without extreme training or skill as she fought to figure out how the punches would help her maneuver. She hoped that they would connect to a small degree as she was more afraid of hurting this person than she was of getting hurt. She was suppose to be a doctor after all, fighting wasn't really in her nature. Be that as it may, she still threw some weight behind her punches so that she could get the feel for the motions.

"I hope this is okay." She said as she quickly changed pace and threw a straight right handed punch towards the woman's jaw. With hopes of changing it up, she honestly avoided doing anything too crazy as she threw a few more punches to get a proper feeling for the moving and the punching mechanics themselves. Her fists needed to twist when she threw them as well as throw her shoulders with each on to give them power. What an interesting concept indeed, she thought as she lightly punched at ear opponent with lots of consideration for safety.

The opponents attacks were withheld more than she'd cared for. "You strike too softly. You'll never improve if you dont push yourself. Like this." She stated and flew through a series of handseals. As she finished the ground around her sprang forth four humanoid golems that quickly took on the shape of Michiko herself. The clones spread out equal distances and one at a time charged forward to strike at the original Michiko. As the first one charged forward it brought its right arm back and slammed it forward as if to give it everything it had. Under normal circumstances one would be expected to either block or avoid this strike but Michiko was planning on testing her mettle again. The clones strike slammed directly into Michiko's shoulder and sent her into a spin that almost knocked her off her feet all together. The clones strike was followed up with a kick to Michiko's back that only barely connected as Michiko was in the process of turning from the previous strike. The kick however added a slight bit more spin to her twirl.

The first clone leaped backwards and stood in place as the second clone moved into action almost as if timed perfectly with the first ones retreat. The second clone moved in and launched a rapid fire flurry of light strikes meant to disorient more than damage as Michiko attempted to block some of the strikes. The clone managed to connect about half of its hits and the other half fell to Michiko's blocking. Bracing herself against the strikes she struggled to resist the urge to increase the density of her steel skin. Normally she would have done so to prevent any damage but again she was training the technique to make herself tougher. She felt the impact of various punches from the clone and attempted to withstand being knocked back or around as the punches landed. After a few moments the clone pulled itself back and leaped out of range. The second clone stood out of range at the same distance as the first and awaited its turn. The two remaining clones flinched forward in a feint as the third clone to strike actually dashed forwards.

The third clone came in fast and hard as it brought a sweeping kick to the mid section which struck a bracing Michiko dead on, followed by an acrobatic leap into the air that spun into a downward mid-air somersault crash landing into Michiko like a mis-placed bodyslam. Both the clone and Michiko both crumpled to the ground having not expected the almost catastrophic display. While michiko was not any means of a taijutsu master, she didnt recall being this clumsy. But apparently it showed in her clones woeful example of ability. The clone rapidly scrambled to its feet as Michiko did the same and before she fully got her bearings the clones assault started up again. This time the rock creature led in with a double fisted slam attack that nailed Michiko on the same shoulder as the original clone forcing Michiko down to her knees. While she was down the clone took its opportunity to deliver an almost bone shattering knee thrust to Michiko's exposed face sending her reeling back and landing on her ass.

The third clone leaped into the air as the first, second and fourth clones all dashed in. All four clones this time began wailing on Michiko as she did all she could to withstand the onslaught. In full defensive mode michiko struck out blocking strike with strike and attempting to avoid kick after kick. The attempts were not half-bad but unforutnately she was out numbered and out maneuvered. Slam after slam , crack after crack of stone on flesh. Anyone watching would think the four clones were going to kill their creator. The creatures bore down and slammed rocky fist into tender flesh repeatedly in a series of strikes that would send Michiko flying back if she wasnt being hit nearly simultaneously from all angles. For nearly a few full minutes this continued until Michiko took an offensive and began striking back. Bringing her bear hands forward in a clenched strike she landed a square hit repeatedly on one of the clones torso causing it to crack and crumble as the clone fell apart. With three remaining clones she attempted to follow suit.

Unfortunately she only managed to crack another clone once more before all three struck her at the same time sending her flying forward and at the onlooker Rohiko's feet before the clones crumbled into piles of earth/stone on their own.


Looking only slightly less utterly crushed than she should have , Michiko's body still took quite a beating. Mostly because she attempted to withstand most of the strikes instead of defelect or avoid them. "On second thought. You might start with something less violent than that if you're new to the whole "i punch things" game. " Michiko stated with a cough and a slight chuckle in her voice. Slowly attempting to get to her feet she held her right shoulder gingerly as the pain throbbed in various parts of her body.

"No you don't have to..." Rohiko said franticly as the odd woman suddenly created copies of herself to beat herself up. "Do that..." She said as she grumbled as she looked upon the beaten up form of the woman who had just inflicted a good deal of self injury onto herself. Taking a deep breath, Rohiko began to focus her chakra into her right hand with a precise amount of positive chakra flow as she closed her eyes and began to focus on the body that she was about to operate on as she noticed that where she had taken damage, the woman's body had not been bruised, but dented like a sheet of metal. Crouching down next to the strange metallic woman, Rohiko placed her hand 2 cms over the woman's shoulder so that she could start healing some of the damage.

Rohiko quickly began to link her own chakra network with the woman's as she did her best to influence her body to heal itself in the locations that she focused positive energy. These clones had done a good number on the woman, and in fact had torn in the wire like muscle structure of the woman that she was now confronted with. "Please don't do that again." she said soothingly as he moved her hand around in a gentle circle as a green coat of positive energy engulfed her hand. Rohiko felt calm as her healing hands allowed her to understand her patients body a little bit better than before. Obviously it was as she had though, made of metal the woman still had vital organs that seems to be unharmed. It was a good thing that this was the fact, because she wasn't quite sure she could repair such wounds yet. Using her chakra to close the muscle damage on the woman's shoulder. "You're definitely different..." Rohiko said as she moved her hand down the woman's arm.

"Holy shit, you must be one tough cookie..." Rohiko said as she scanned the arm not to only find tissue damage and denting, but also metallic bone damage just above the elbow. How this woman was able to not crumple up in pain was amazing. She must have an extremely high pain tolerance or a strong will. "You have a broken arm...and you're still not phased." Rohiko muttered quietly as she used her chakra to repair the wire like tendons and smoothing out the woman's metal like body. The broken, or more so bent, metal bone was going to be the last thing that she attempted to play with. If she moved it improperly it could spell disaster for this stranger. "Ma'am I need you to hold very still for me." Rohiko said as she began to finish all the basic healing she had hoped to do before approaching the Big Bent bone issue.

Rohiko took a deep breath as she quickly felt her chakra going deep within the woman's tissue, surrounding the damaged portion of the bone. Using her chakra, in one swift motion, she reset the bone so that the woman wouldn't be to pained by sudden correcting of the bone structure. With that she slowly moved the bone back into place. The sound the bone made was less of a cracking and more like a metallic grinding sound. Rohiko numbed the woman's arm as much as she could as she tried to figure out how to properly reset the metal bone. Hmm, she thought as she quickly began to heat up the location of the bending with her chakra so that the metal would not only begin to heat up, but also become more malleable. Rohiko felt a bit more success as suddenly the bone began to mold back into place with ease. "Shew...that was close." She sighed as she quickly finished resetting the metallic bone of the woman.

Now freed up to think about the rest of her body, Rohiko slowly moved her hand towards the woman's stomach. "May I?" She asked looking up with the utmost degree of seriousness. When it came to injury, there was no cutting it short. Sighing Rohiko would put her hand over the woman's damaged torso anyway, just to get the feel for the general prognosis of any torso injuries the woman might have self inflicted. "Do you do this whole punch yourself thing often?" Rohiko asked as she continued to heal the metallic structure of the woman's body.

As the stranger placed her hands on Michiko a shiver went down her steel spine. The shinobi was attempting to perform a healing technique normally used on the flesh and blood on her steel body. Michiko grinned. Thankfully when not at full defense her steel body very much mimicked that of a flesh and blood one, at least in a variety of ways. Slowly the woman was mending wounds caused by her clones and nearly the entire time Michiko was smiling or giggling. "I am considerably stronger than I look, though I appreciate your kindness." Michiko laughed as the woman was closing open gashes across her body. She'd let the clones hit harder than she expected. But hey, life is pain right? Michiko reached out and gently touched the womans arm as she was performing her techniques on her, letting her soul energy tap and touch on the womans essence as she worked. Michiko had a brilliant idea. Using her soul energy Michiko attempted to match the frequency of this woman. This woman who was so studiously working on repairing the body of a stranger. Maybe Michiko could help lighten her mood a little.

Very faintly at first, Michiko's energy simply tickled at the aura of this kunoichi's essence, gently lapping at the exterior like a flame licks the kettle before it boils. The invisible energy should set off no alarms in the woman less she be able to detect it directly , and even then Michiko figured she was too busy concentrating on her work to notice. As the woman moved from shoulder to arm and was examining it as she went Michiko expanded her soul energy for a moment and retracted it like a pulse. She repeated these steps a few times until she managed to get a sense of the frequency of pulses the womans soul energy vibrated with. Something was different with this girl, a "positive" more up-beat energy. Something less "slaghter" and little more "innocent" was at play here. This woman was not nearly as tainted as Michiko's soul. 'This could be fun' she thought with a slightly mischevious grin. "Yes. Tough cookie, thats one way to describe it. The steel skin was barely reinforced this run however, generally I can make it much more durable. Able to withstand much more damage. But where is the fun in that?" Michiko commented as the woman continued her work.

As the woman continued her work Michiko attempted to continue slowly matching her soul wavethelength to this womans, at least in part. She only needed to a litle bit to manipulate but as this was her first real try with this technique she figured better to be safe than sorry. After a few more minutes Michiko decided to test out her theory. "You know. Its perfectly acceptable, and even recommended, that when you're tending to my wounds you do so without those distracting clothes on." Michiko stated informatively while infusing the young kunoichi with a small wave of soul energy. Should the technique be successful her medic friend would believe the statement as truth and be urged to remove her clothing. Michiko truely did hope this was successful, even if it was only while the woman was tending to her, it would make the sight a bit more pleasant.

If the technique was a failure the soul energy may have been wasted but at least Michiko could learn from the experience.

Rohiko found it extremely distracting to deal with this patient while she was talking. Suddenly as she finished reconnecting the metallic wire like tendons, she felt the urge to take some of her cloths off. Clamping her hands into a fist, she gritted her teeth at the utter thought of it. "Stay quite you!" She shouted as she smashed her fist down on the woman's noggin. She slid her lab coat off as she appeased the weird feeling that had come over her. It was really strange, Rohiko decided to ignore it for the time being as she sighed with anxiety. Quickly pushing herself behind the woman, she decided to focus on healing her back. There was still intensive damage upon the woman as she quickly began to rinse and repeat the process that she had used the first time to repair all the basic tendon damage and tissue damage first before she did any extremely intensive healing. Rohiko was now fairly pissed with this woman as she seemed fairly perverted. She had to tell herself over and over mentally as she got distracted when repairing part of the woman's metallic shoulder disks. 

"Shit..." She muttered quietly as suddenly she felt her chakra pull the shoulder blade out of place. A terrible grinding sound rung in her ears as she felt the metallic piece of shoulder bend out of place. "sorry about that...you kinda distracted me...so...suck it up" Rohiko said focusing her chakra on the damaged shoulder that she herself had caused due to being distracted. She figured that the slipping of the plate in the woman's shoulder was probably causing her a good deal of pain at this point in time, as she focused on heating up the bone once again so that she could maneuver it back into place. She wished this woman would stop confusing her with all of her extremely convincing words. "just be quiet while I work please...so this doesn't happen again." She said as she converted her chakra into heat to mold the bone back into place like she had the first time.

This was all easier said then done. Rohiko found it much harder to even distribute the heat over such a large bone. The shoulder bone was also in a position where it could damage the spine, and ultimately end this shinobi's ability to function properly. Rohiko would need to have all of her mental focus on fixing this injury if she were to have any hope of keeping this woman from permanent harm. "hold still please." she urged as she began to pump her chakra all the way around the woman's shoulder bone as she slowly heated it up and began to accurately move the bone around the spine so that it avoided injury on the woman. Rohiko did her best to keep the woman still as she finished placing the bone back in place. With that, Rohiko quickly began to repair the woman's tendons some more, reattaching them to the bone itself so that the muscle and tissue would reform at a gentle rate. Rohiko bit her bottom lip as all of her mental focus went to keeping the shoulder in tact.

As the womans fist clicked against her metal head Michiko giggled. As the impact was not hard enough to be an attack the residual strength of her steel body easily prevented even the slightest of annoyances. The woman seem'd highly interested in healing her rather nasty self inflicted wounds and this only slightly confused her. "My my, looking good." She whispered as the girl removed her lab coat. Her attempt was at least in partial a success, in future she would need to remember to utilize proper phrasing. But for now she thought maybe she'd try a little more humor. Michiko's body held perfectly still for a few moments as she summoned a small amount of soul energy to the 'ready'. Expanding it around her and retracting it back in with a single pulse she attempted to shift her entire soul out from her body towards the doctor woman. As the lady showed no signs of visibly seeing chakra and soul energy this should easily go unnoticed. The energy pulsed and then vibrated. The effect however was not what Michiko had intended.

Michiko's entire body vibrated like a giant bell being hit with a giant hammer, only without any real audio to follow it. As she was originally holding perfectly still the doctor may or may not believe it to have been on purpose, but it would have definitely disrupted what she was doing. Unfortunately for Michiko this attempt disrupted her own body for a moment, long enough for the "healing" the woman was doing to be temporarily reversed and an almost electrical shock erupted from the open wound the woman was working on. Thankfully the shock wasnt far enough out to actually hit the doctor, but Michiko felt it resound through her body. Instinctively she slightly increased the durability of her skin as a defense mechanism, or at least tried to. Her head was pulsing a little too hard to focus on that. After a few seconds the feeling passed, her head cleared and she recounted what she'd done with her soul energy. "W-What was that? Did you hit something vital?" Michiko stated in a ploy to pretend she was not the cause of the unnatural vibration.

After a few moments Michiko summoned more soul energy to the ready and held perfectly still again. This time she focused more on her intention and less on the action. She'd intended on trying to take over this womans body with her own soul, she was going to try and dominate her mind. Trying to match the womans soul energy again she held even more still and focused. The energy came to a low hum and Michiko acted. This time she visualized her soul acting independently from her body, the essence of her very being hummed with excitement as it slowly pushed away from her body and towards the doctor trying to heal that body. The energy creeped forward like a person trying to push out of a strechy sack, slowly but surely pushing further out of her body's shell and towards the woman. The soul eventually clawed and pushed itself to within the womans range and was nearly outside of michiko's body when the soul energy reached out and attempted to yank her soul back into her own body. Fighting this urge Michiko pushed even further with her soul forcing it out of her body and "into" the doctors.

But alas, the soul did not invade the doctors body, it simply stood there phased through her as she worked. Nothing. What was the point in this? Shifting around to look at her body Michiko's soul took a step behind the woman and mentally Michiko sighed. Intending to re-integrate with her body Michiko's soul started to move , but something drastically different happened. Instead of Michiko's soul rejoining her body, her body vanished in the blink of an eye and reappeared where the soul was standing. The soul had successfully reintegrated, but by yanking her body to its place instead. Michiko had teleported behind the woman. Michiko stood behind the doctor lady with a rather stunned look on her face just staring confused as to what happend.

She sighed as the woman seemed smugly pleased with herself. Rohiko was only trying to help someone in need; however this was proving to be much more effort than it was worth. "hold still!" She said angrily as she suddenly noticed something strange happening as the woman seemed to begin vibrating. Her chakra based hard work was beginning to become the harder as the woman began to tear her body up with her terrible vibration. Rohiko's hard work began to break down as the vibration not only broke up the shoulder blade's position and the wire tendons, but also she caused Rohiko's hands to jerk over her spinal cord, causing it to dislodge some of the disks positioned there.

Rohiko's eyes widened as she realized how much damage this person was self inflicting upon herself by moving like she was. Rohiko didn't quite know how to respond as she wondered how she could handle fixing this woman's problems. Rohiko doubted that this woman was going to be able to move in the condition that she had created for herself. Rohiko quickly began to infuse her chakra into this woman's back as she did her best to focus on the moving rate that the woman's body seemed to be moving.

Rohiko quickly began to move her chakra at the same rate as she vibrated her chakra with the motion of the woman as she did her best to pull the moved spinal plates back into place. There was going to be some unavoidable spinal swelling. Suddenly she felt something crawling around inside the woman and physically eating the chakra she was beginning to pump into this woman's body. "you're made of bugs!" she shouted in fright as she quickly went to go and move her chakra around the bugs to avoid this hive of a woman's body to keep her back moving back properly without issues. Rohiko was beginning to sweat as she felt her body beginning to sweat as things were beginning to stress her out a little bit. She was doing her best to control the flow of chakra as the woman suddenly flickered behind her. The chakra flow from her hand began to leak out into nothingness as the woman ended up out of her sight. 

"What happened to standing still?" she asked as she quickly took a step back and let the woman deal with her own injuries that she was more than likely creating. Rohiko sighed with anguish as she figured this woman was way to uppity to be able to sit still while she worked. She hated when people didn't do as directed; which made it hard to believe that she had even stopped to help this idiot. Sighing she wondered if this woman would sit still long enough for her to help her...probably not.

Michiko's soul was not at rest. Something had gone wrong. Was it her previous injuries? Was it inadvertently being worsend by the doctor trying to heal her? She wasnt sure what was happening but it was starting to become clear that something had gone very wrong, and she was not in control. The injuries caused by the doctor were not life threatning, thanks to Michiko's grendel ancestry everything would eventually heal. The problem was it was eventual. The pain was beginning to build , in leaps and bounds , as her spirit tried to wrest itself from her body without her control. "I..." She started, clamping her eyes in pain as what felt like lava laced lightning jumped through her back. "am not "made of bugs". I simply..."Michiko continued as a jolt of pain forced her to stop all movement with a small gasp of air pausing her sentence. "Host them. They are some of the tools in my arsenal." She finished her sentence trying to wrest control over her own soul as it attempted to shift out of her body.

"Do you think you could continue? Something is wrong and this game has lost its fun." She stated with a tone of growing pain and aggravation as her soul ripped itself from her body and fell to the ground near the doctors feet. While the doctor couldn't see the soul, she could see as Michiko's body blinked out of existence and reappeared at her feet face down in a half-curled position as if trying to push herself into a kneel. " Preferably before I accidentally tear myself in half. That would be ... unpleasant." She stated through gritted teeth. Michiko's soul energy attempted to leap from her body again moments later but she managed to wrestle back the energies. Slowly as time progressed she felt she had regained control over the energies as the doctor worked and for a brief moment Michiko sighed an exhale of relief. Sadly she was mistaken. Maybe Michiko should not be haphazardly dabbling in soulcaster abilities without the proper attention to detail that she normally had when training. Perhaps she was simply unused to this type of maneuver.

Either way, Michiko's soul leaped from her body and dashed nearly 15 meters away into the branches of a nearby tree. Surely enough in nothing more than a blink Michiko's body reappeared in the trees as she crashed down through the branches. This caught her off guard and her inner chaos must have taken over her soul as it ran every which way and dragged Michiko's body along for the ride like a wild horse dragging a run-away cart! From the doctors perspective she could simply see Michiko disappear, hear her crash into the trees nearby only to reappear at random intervals in spots around her location as if being yanked around in segmented pulses.

Finally after a few moments Michiko nearly passed out and her body reappeared a few feet in the air near the spot the doctor was at, with a crash to the ground. While she was technically not torn in half, and her body instinctively tried to strengthen the metal of her body some, she was definitely not in top form. "I was right." She weakly called out in a pained scratchy voice. "Unpleasant." Michiko's body relaxed almost to the point of unconsciousness as the chakra strengthening her steel skin eased, softening and returning it to the normal softness of a human females body.

Rohiko didn’t know how to process this, when she noticed that the woman was blinking all about with abandon as if the laws of physics didn’t matter anymore. Rohiko was positive that this woman was going to mess herself up even more if she didn’t stop this nonsense that she had been putting together by not listening. “I said, HOLD STILL!” she shouted as she walked back over to the now beaten up form of the woman who had done quite a bit of self-inflicted damage to herself. Rohiko sighed as she quickly knelt down next to her and placed her hand about 1 cm away from her body, quickly focusing her chakra into her palm so that it would begin to infuse itself with the woman’s body. Rohiko felt her chakra beginning to repair first the spinal cord as she put the backbone itself back into its proper place. That was the easy part, she thought to herself as she knew that she had been aware of that problem before the woman had blinked off to who knows where. Rohiko began to slowly heat up each individual spinal disk, as she molded the metal bones back into place so that the woman would hopefully feel less pain overall. “Yeah of course…if only you had listened to me and sat still.” She said as she successfully put each disk back into place, removing most of the inflammation and the sore ache that she would have been feeling.

Rohiko now focused on repairing the wire like muscular structure that the woman seemed to have present in her body. She was definitely something different, Rohiko thought as she used her chakra to connect the muscles back to the metallic bone that they had been disconnected from. Rohiko felt confident that she could fix this woman’s issues now as she continued to focus her chakra into repairing the muscular structures of the woman’s back so that it would not suffer from any nerve damage or anything of that nature. “feel any better?” she asked as she moved her hand down to the woman’s lower back to adjust her tail bone and the remaining spinal disks in the lower portion of the woman’s back. She alleviated the swelling that was beginning to take place, and even made it so that the woman’s posture might even be improved a little bit by how she properly corrected the spine. She was far from done however, and in fact she would need more time to properly repair the external damage this woman had dealt to herself from her sudden game of rugby with the tree.

Rohiko focused on closing any possible open wounds, and repairing the bone and muscle structures of the woman’s body that had taken the blunt of the landing. Her legs were both sprained and her hip would need a bit of an adjustment; however the rest seemed fairly normal to her. This woman’s body was definitely durable. In fact, Rohiko figured that it was much more durable than any one person she had yet to meet. She focused on heating up each metal bone as she internally welded and combined the pieces together to correct each damaged portion of the woman’s metallic body. Preforming medical techniques on a person made of metal was a new experience for the young doctor; however Rohiko did her best to keep calm as her chakra finished repairing the simple bone injuries the woman had suffered. She was just about done, the only thing left to do was check on the internal organs to make sure there was no internal bleeding that could ultimately cause quite a problem for this woman later if left unattended. She was sure that she would have to check at least the vital spots to make sure everything was fine.

First her chakra surrounded the woman’s heart, warming the structure as she inspected it. Like she had expected, it like the rest of her body was made of metal. Everything about this woman was made of metal. She made sure to properly check and strengthen each organ as she checked each one individually with her medical techniques and chakra. Rohiko sighed as she finally finished her work, taking her hand and wiping the sweat of her brow. “All better?” She asked as she stood up, picking up her lab coat and putting it back on as she looked down at the woman she had just helped out. “Try to be more attentive next time please.” She said with a smile as she thought about how successful her medical technique had been. She was beginning to better understand controlling one’s chakra to help heal, and reconstruct parts of the body. Eventually she would be able to do some of the more advanced stuff; however for now this was where she was at.

With a combination of her own slowly regenerative nature, the doctors healing technique coming into full bloom, and a bit of luck; Michiko's body was in pretty darn good condition. Sitting up from the ground and dusting off her BDU trousers Michiko rolled over and bouned up to a standing position. "Much appreciated!" She stated with a grin. "You're not half-bad at this whole healing thing. Im still feeling a little 'wired' though. Why dont we pass the time a little longer before I have to get back?" Michiko stated with a soft grin before blinking out of existance. Reappearing directly behind Rohiko , within a few inches of distance, the mostly naked steel woman leaned forward and eased a soft kiss right behind the doctors ear before the sound of air rushing in to fill a now empty spot informed her that the steel woman had disappeared again. From a few feet away to rohiko's right the voice came again. "Im thinking we play tag. What do you say? You're a medic type right? Dont you medics have some kind of scalpel technique? See if you can hit me with that!" She stated before disappearing again

Michiko didnt rightfully care what technique the woman used, so long as she played along. Regardless of what type of strike the doctor would use to "tag" her , Michiko's diligant maneuvering made every attempt to avoid contact. Before the woman could agree or disagree to the game Michiko vanished once more appearing a solid 15 meters angled away just to poof again as if "leading" the woman towards something. Should the woman follow Michiko's short range teleporting leads directl into a nearby grouping of trees and Michiko reappears in the mid-section of branches for one of the tree's that has a clear shot to where the woman should be coming through. Sitting perfectly still waiting for the woman to give chase Michiko feels the soul energy bouncing about her body. This new technique was useful, and with practice hopefully she could strech its range for a decent amount before it requires reconnection. Glancing around Michiko awaited the doctors arrival. Should she not give chance michiko simply makes her way back to the spot to find her in yet another teleporting run fest.

Should the woman actually be giving chase though , Michiko waits atop the tree's for the womans arrival. Feeling her soul leap from her body time itself seems to stand still as the soul trys to press the boundaries of its movement distance before her body begins to tug back on it. Michiko's soul self dashes out from the tree's and try's moving to a further canopy of tree limbs that should in theory hold her weight. The soul self begins to lose cohesion as it reaches the standard limit of her abilities and struggles as it attempts to surpass that range. Time still at an almost apparent stand-still the soul grasps out for the now nearby canopy before everything goes technicolor. Michiko's eyes pop open and her senses reel as the world around her swirls into focus. From a third party perspective Michiko simply swooshed out of existance from a treetop and a crashing noise was heard near the edge of another set of trees. Michiko's body reappeared just out of reach of a large branch , and thus plumetted towards the ground bouncing off a few other smaller branches nearby.

Michiko's body reacted instinctively and tried to flip her into a position where she could land either on her feet or in a tuck and roll. Neither worked and she ended up bouncing clean on her back. As the world came into focus Michiko slammed her fists on the ground and popped herself up into crouching position. Disappearing from view and popping back in a few times Michiko made her way to where the doctor was, in an attempt to sneak up on her from behind. Should she reach her fast enough Michiko will continue to engage her in a series of "touch and go" maneuvers where she attempts to teleport to a blind spot or an openning and either poke the doctor in an inappropriate spot, or grope the doctor and teleport away in an attempt to urge her on to trying to play back.

Should michiko get caught up in any close combat situataions with the doctor along the way she trys to avoid beng hit , and when not possible recovers as quickly as possible to try and bound back into action.
