Aeris was never one to be discouraged by adults when warned against meandering into areas that she shouldn't. She wanted what she wanted and with no parents to tell her otherwise it was a rare occasion to have someone berate her choices. Today was no different as she stood in the quiet alley. It was perhaps only a block or two away from the Anbu Headquarters, not that she could see that from her current position between the two rows of building that made up the alley. The multistory structures cast a constant shadow on the dirt path that seem to ward off the desert sun even at the ends where the alley met more proper streets. She was silently mulling over what her instructors had said, she had shown some reasonable aptitude for medical jutsu. In fact one of her teachers had told her outright to give up on taijutsu and that she would have a easier time just being a medical ninja. Aeris didn't exactly want that though, if anything she wanted to at least try to follow in her mother's footsteps and become a fighter. So after nights of mulling over books in the academy she found a way to turn her aptitude, if she could even call it that, for medical jutsu into a weapon.

The biggest problem that she faced now was not the technique required, but a external force to act upon her. She could sit in the alley all day and funnel her chakra into her hand if she wanted, but with nothing to put her scalpel up against she had no idea if she was shaping the chakra into the correct shape or if the chakra itself would even stop an attack. She tried throwing pebbles at a wall to make them bounce back at her but they could never make it any closer than landing pitifully at her feet. As she paced up and down the alley Aeris rubbed her chin in a exaggerated manner, like a old man conjuring up some fortune cookie wisdom to spit out, when she noticed a crack in one of the buildings. Aeris was clever, she put together what she thought was a brilliant plan almost instantly. Taking a kunai out of one of her pouches she twirled it around and wedged the handle into the crack so the pointed tip was facing her. She took a few steps back and once more funneled her chakra into her left hand until it was coated with a faintly glowing blue light then reared back and thrust her hand forward.

The first attempt went about as well as anyone could expect from the worst student in her class. The chakra around her hand dissipated almost instantly like fog being blown away by a stiff breeze. Her hand sinking about a inch onto the pointed metal spike and causing a small spurt of blood to splatter against the wall. She blinked for a moment, registering the total failure of her first attempt before she lurched back with  rather drunken motion and clutched her bleeding palm with her right hand. She danced lightly on her feet for a moment, hopping up and down as her sotto voce voice let out mild little curses. After the delayed shock of stabbing herself subsided she slumped down against the wall opposite of the kunai and stared at the wound with her sleepy eyes. She could mend the admittedly small cut herself after a few moments of work but that didn't leave her any closer to figuring this new technique out, and she really did not feel inclined to keep throwing her hands at the kunai...

Isamu was walking through the village basking in the warm midday sun. He had left his apartment several hours ago but was having a lovely time meandering through the village's streets. His stroll served as more than just a distraction. It was essential that he be familiar with the village in the event of an attack. He did aspire to the ranks of the Bear ANBU after all. Isamu had questioned this goal recently in the aftermath of the Crimson Prison in Amegakure. While he had proven himself capable of going toe to toe with ANBU shinobi he had also seen the darker side of what they did. Ultimately though he was sure that so long as Amira was Kazekage she would keep the village on the right path.

A strange sight caught the corner of Isamu's eye. A small girl bleeding from her palm. Isamu stopped and began to walk towards her trying to assess what he was looking at.

Description: Some characters are schooled in the art of careful observation. Thus, even without the aid of Chakra, they can observe an individual and attempt to glean a valuable piece of information about them. This ability requires a skill Check and approximately one hour of observation for each thing studied. For example, if a User watched a man cutting wood for an hour, he could make a Know Ability Skill check. If successful he could learn that the man has a Carpentry Skill, can perform an amount of Movements per Round, or anything pertaining to the work they are performing. The user can apply this skill to nearly all statuses and abilities, as well as Skill Level Associated with a character. Look in Academia Skills thread found in the Skills and Traits Index for more information. If user has 25 or more Ranks in Evidence Analysis user gains a Synergy Bonus +10 to Know Ability By Observing for 1 hour this is considered as a Trivial Difficulty. Shorter the observation increases the difficulty. Each time learned user gets 1 die roll to increase the skill.

The girl was standing next to a kunai stuck handle first into a wall. That was unusual to say the least. The kunai didn't mark her as a shinobi but it made it more probable than not. Most little girls didn't wander about with kunai unless they had graduated from the academy. Isamu looked closer for a headband but didn't see one. He wasn't sure she was a shinobi until he contemplated the strength required to lodge the kunai in the side of the building, that made it almost a certainty.

Isamu studied the girl's musculature. It wasn't heavily toned so if she was a taijutsu user she hadn't trained very much. Next Isamu's eyes moved to her bleeding hand. He could see the blood on the kunai as well. She must have struck herself against it, but why? Had it been an accident or had she believed herself capable of striking it? Isamu couldn't make heads or tails of that one but before he could contemplate it further the young girl began a new technique.

The girl placed her unwounded hand over the cut and surrounded it with a glow of green chakra. This confirmed that she was a shinobi, and one with remarkable chakra control at that. Isamu had not seen any handseals, that level of control for her age was remarkable. Isamu's keen eyes noted the wound on her palm closing. She was a medical shinobi. That explained her chakra control, but why had she cut herself on the kunai in the first place?

Isamu was close now and he lifted his right arm and waved, "Hey are you okay?" He wore kis katana on his left hip but the forehead protector on his left arm was what what properly identified him as a fellow sand shinobi.

Aeris had just finished mending the wound on her leaving little more than a faint scar, though the red smear of blood left behind from what had already escaped from the cut remained. She chewed on her bottom lip briefly before the sound of someone else's voice roused her from her self absorbed thoughts. The tiny shinobi turned and looked up from her kneeling position, blinking slowly with a confused and questioning look. "Hwuh? Oh yeah, I'm fine. See?" She said holding up her hand and wiping some of the blood off her palm. As she stood and turned the keen eyed shinobi could spot the metal plate engraved with the symbol of a sand ninja sewed into the sleeve of her short sleeved shirt.

"I was just... practicing? I guess." She murmured, looking at her hands and focusing for a moment in silence to channel green chakra into her hands until they were almost completely covered before she turned to the kunai jammed into the wall. She clenched her fists as if she was restraining herself from striking the sharp object again, but then the chakra dissipated and she let out a slow breath. "I don't think I can hold it long enough to get my hand to the blade though." She flopped down on top of a short crate in the alley.

"Oh, I guess I should introduce myself right? I'm Aeris, a genin." She said tapping the metal plate on her shoulder. She keeps her eyes on the kunai, standing back up again and trying to channel more chakra into her hands. She focuses on one hand this time, holding her right hand by the wrist with her other hand and running towards the kunai. When she reaches it her hand seems to get pushed to the side, avoiding the kunai and running almost comically into the wall with a muffled 'thump' before stumbling back a few feet. "Hunh? I think I... did it that time, kind of?"

It appeared Isamu had startled the young girl. Isamu however was encouraged to see her still engaged with her training. It was good to see such a prodigous younger generation in Sunagakure. The Kazekage herself was only a few years older than the medical ninja. Aeris introduced herself, "I'm Aeris, a genin."

Isamu smiled and said with a chuckle, "I'm Isamu, a much older Genin" Isamu watched the younger Genin wind up and charge forward again with determination. Isamu was pleased to see that she didn't wind up with her hand impaled on the kunai but wasn'nt sure she should tempt fate again.

Training [0/10]

Suna no Yoroi (Sand Armor)
Rank: "C"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: A Think layer of sand that wraps around the user so then they gain the capability of using it as a defense against on coming attacks. The sand is durable, and quite flexible as well that fits neatly around the very user. It may not be as protective as the Sand Shield technique but it helps those that are in need. The Sand Armor is only capable of protecting the user against attacks equal in Class or lower in Class.
Special: ---
Drawback: A technique that has many drawbacks. The user looses an extremely numerous amount of stamina when they have this placed upon them. If the user is a NinJutsu Master they are capable of having this technique up and running for ten posts, and rest for two posts before they use it again. If the user is a NinJutsu Specialist this technique lasts for only Five Rounds and rest for five posts if they wish to use it again. And if the user is a Non NinJutsu Specialist this technique lasts for two rounds before the user becomes to hot and fatigued and rest for ten posts before they are capable of using it again.
Description: A technique that is wrapped around the user's body and sticks on their skin, clothes while hardening greatly. The sand forms into the color of the clothing as well, to show those that attack do not know that the user has a sand armor around them.
Limit: Must have the Sand Release. This technique takes up a total of 10 Meters of sand.

"How about you try something a little less dangerous first?" Isamu flashed a couple of handseals and the sand in the alleyway snaked over his body hardening into an exoskeleton. If Aeris hadn't been watching him there would be no way of knowing Isamu had been covered in sand. Isamu checked the covering over, it had been awhile since he had used this jutsu. His front was unblemished, completely indistinguishable from before but as he ran his hand over the back of his head he felt a large lump. Excess sand had clumped there. A quick adjustment and the bump sheared off falling to the ground in a tiny cascade of sand. It reminded Isamu of when he had learned the technique all those years ago...

*Flashback*
Isamu darted left and rolled as the sword whistled through the air where his head had been. The sand armor was incredibly heavy and he hadn't adjusted his movements to it. The katana came down again and Isamu rolled in desperation. There was no grace to the movements just an instinctive desire to follow his tutor's command, "Do not get hit." This time a kunai flew at the young Sadojin's head. Out of sheer luck he was able to turn his head so that the kunai glanced off the side of the armor on his face scarring it slightly.

Isamu scrambled to his knees in time to see the sword bearing down only a foot from his neck. The world went dark for a moment. One second passed, then three, then six as the Sadojin's body knit itself back together. Isamu regained his hearing in time to catch his tutor mid-rant, "...slower than a sloth and where was the strength?! Compact the sand!" Isamu sighed. His tutor never let up for a second. Not even to let him get his head straight.

When Isamu had been decapitated the sand armor had dropped from his body. Now Isamu reformed the seals slowly and deliberately so as not to make a mistake with is fingers. He had memorized all the diagrams of handseals, he knew what they were supposed to look like but he still struggled to make his fingers form them. When the sand was complete his instructor inspected the coating. As he started on the Sadojin's right arm Isamu became accutely aware of a large seam on his left foot. He didn't dare shift or change it for fear of a bigger telling off.

The tutor had clearly already notcied the deficiency because as he inspected the right arm closely he threw a kunai into it pinning Isamu's right foot. "Fix it." Isamu bent down and removed the kunai allowing the hole to close up. Another string of handseals and the armor was repaired. "Don't get hit." Those words were Isamu's only warning as the two went into another round of dodging, leaping, and swinging.
*End Flashback*

Isamu smiled trying to encourage Aeris, "Why don't you try peeling off this layer of sand? Don't worry about mistakes, I heal almost instantly." Isamu left it somewhat mysteriously at that and held out his right arm encouraging the genin to start.
