[ENTER] James bought himself out to the larger expanses of the dojo he was in. He needed some peace and quiet to attempt to grow his technique's range. The only things he needed to worry about was learning the two clans he was a part of to the greatest of his ability. There was something special about knowing he was only a small part of a bigger picture. Being a part of a clan lifted a large weight off of his shoulder. Even if he couldn't achieve greatness, his name would live on in these members that did.
The most important part of becoming renowned was skill. Just being able to move some metal a few feet isn't enough. James knew he needed to at least be able to effect a minimum of 15 meters to be a threat to anyone but himself. There wasn't much to extending the jutsu besides long hard work, and time. James lifted a kunai in the air. It began vibrating violently as he built potential energy up in it. He launched the kunai forward into the edge of his field.
The kunai flew with amazing speed as it smashed against the edge of what James was capable of controlling. It spun around the edge turning inward on itself. there was a large cacophony of sound. Lightning erupted from the field pulling the ninja tool back inward. Not much could be done to stop the kunai from escaping James' influence. It continued on towards the next edge to attempt and escape from the ever grwoing grasp James was placing on it.

Post 2 James Kept the game of controlling the kunai going. He forced the kunai to zigzag within his field. The kunai tried to probe at all of the fields spots for any weak points in the defenses. Something that was common among different defenses was that there was normally a weak point somewhere that something could get in or out of, But unlike the hyuuga James' field of control was total and absolute. He couldn't be breached by any metal without his express knowledge of the entry.
He flung the ninja tool up towards the sky. The kunai skimmed the edge with its it flowing along the edge in a widening circular pattern. The pattern grew larger as more bits of metal were added, mostly chipped pieces off of broken swords. Swirling began to break off into smaller sets of metal being swirled around. There was an added benefit of objects smacking into each other and partially falling out of the field. This caused the field to grow stronger to accommodate such circumstances.
James got into a meditative position balling all of the metal up with him. He pulled the bits and pieces close inward so that none would be among the outskirts or edges of the field. He balled up the potential energy extremely tight with a large magnetic force that crushed it all together. Then, In an instant, he flung it all in every direction. The pieces flew at astronomical speeds out of what he could control. Focusing on them, James kept his control for as long as he could putting himself in immense pain.

Bouseki Yuki (Spinning Snow) Rank: D Skill: Taijutsu Effect: The user delivers a surprise kick with their off foot. Special: -- Drawback: -- Description: The user steps forward with their off-foot and points it forward, as though performing the Tentou. Rather than shifting their main-foot backwards, however, the user lifts their main-foot off the ground and spins gracefully to deliver a powerful heel kick to the opponent. They then resume the stance. Limit: Must learn from a Gintsuki no Seikou Mai Master. Must know Tentou (To Invert).
Again Kimi missed his attacks and again he came at Ryu full force. Thought for how much longer he could go full force was in question at the moment. He had used Shunshin already which was a massive drain when you aren't used to it. He was constantly increasing his speed and attack knowledge. All of that was draining him at an incredible rate, but he was somehow finding the strength to keep going.
It was then that he had an idea. Ryu seemed to be reading the slightest hints of Kimi's body. Those tailtale signs that an attack was coming, Kimi had to remove those from himself. Which lead him to think about his fighting stances, and what he could do from them. If he could his going into his stance as the movements then attack he would have a better chance.
Kimi focused his bodies movements into his stance. Not allowing and precursor of an attack to show. For all intents and purposes he seemed to be settling into his inverted fighting stance. It was as he was about to switch his main foot back that he attacked. He would attempt a powerful yet graceful heel kick to Ryu's side.

Rokkingu Kaze (Rocking Wind) Rank: C Skill: Taijutsu Effect: The user takes a half step backwards and rolls away from a strike, then takes a step forward and strikes with the main hand. Special: -- Drawback: This technique requires an acute sense of balance. Description: The user takes a half-step backwards with their off-foot, rocking their center of gravity down and backwards in a circular motion, allowing a strike to barely miss them. They then complete the motion and take a full step forward with their main-foot, rushing upwards towards the opponent and delivering a strong straight-punch with their main-hand to the solar plexus or stomach. The user then resumes the stance. Limit: Must learn from a Gintsuki no Seikou Mai Master. Must know Shikkyaku Yuki (Falling Snow).
Ryutatsu's eyes flash as he recognized the set up for the oddly inverted style he had just been training. He chuckled even as his body moved to evade the off foot kick of Kimi's. It was simple of taking a half step back as it wizzed by him. Then Ryutatsu took a full step towards Kimi making them very close indeed again. He rushed in with this forward momentum to add power to the blow.
He delivered a strong main hand punch straight at the stomach of Kimi. It have very little distance to travel once he swung. He killed some of the power by not following through with the punch but it was suppose to be a lesson. Basically I know that set of moves try some new combinations. Ryutatsu was having fun with it all but he wanted Kimi to think more than just react on instinct.
There was plenty of lessons about fighting to go on. Fighting while one is tired is a great way to train the body. It also trains the mind to work in disadvantaged conditions. He use to train the same way with Shiki then with Shiki's instructors. Sometimes he still does. Despite his growing reputation he wasn't quite in league with Shiki yet. But he was getting stronger daily.
I Am Lightning, The Rain Transformed The elements are beautiful yet deadly I survive to listen to their medley The lighting strikes without warning For on earth I see it's pouring. Wicked witches, vicious man scream and shout their evil plan. Judgment day will finally come no more sin, the final sum. hate and war no longer count for fear has found it's pale mount. Joy and love the final key to set this filthy world free. Until that time let thy be warned I am lightning, rain transformed.

James lay there, on the ground. His chest heaving up and down. He had successfully increased his range by another two meters. That was something he could be proud of. The training, while intense, was fun; and provided a way for James to practice his abilities outside of combat. He had lay on his back, staring above. The wonders of electricity sparked before him. Blue sprinkles of electric energy jumped between metal floating above his head.
The metal was old and rusted, bit from some forgotten machination perhaps. James did not no, or care of the origin; only that it was there in front of him, something that he could see. James had long grown complacent in the fact he didn't need to see the metal to control it, only sense it. Returning to an old way of thinking is how many masters get back into their craft. James was no different. He needed to up his game if he were to compete with his clan mates, now numerous.
The Kyoudo Clan had grown since James had last taken part of his duties. Now almost seventy five strong, They were one of the larger clans in Kumo. Each on of them possessed the same abilities as James. The lack of being special didn't sit well with him. He had grown up all alone with no others like him, and now, there were children growing stronger than him due to kinship and greater understanding of their powers. A bitter feeling welled inside his heart. He felt envious of them for having each other. To learn and play together.

James flashed back to a simpler time in the orphanage where he grew up. He had been dropped off there at the age of six, His father sired another son, and as Kyoudo tradition mandates, dropped James off at a village to become a strong ninja. He had no use for his older son, the son which couldn't perform nearly as well as his peers. James was a failure in every aspect of his training with his father. Mostly assumed to not have the gift, or ability to perform jutsu at the skill level required of a raiton master.
With only a scroll explaining how to unlock his bloodlimit, James practiced every evening after the academy to unlock his bloodborne talent. The years passed and the students all graduated. It wasn't until the age of twelve that he was able to simply activate his eyes to the lowest level of the bloodlimit. However, he trudged on; meditating every evening with metal wires cris crossing the room. Feeling when people touched them. Attempting to activate his senses.
Other residents would go about their day, unknowing of the training going on by the boy with the closed eyes. He kept to himself, only moving the wires when he felt they might be a nuisance to others. The senses were being developed to feel metal in every fashion. Those touching the metal would leave indentations letting him know where there were by the vibration, and sound of what was happening. A way to sense the world around himself without having to be directly seeing it. A skill any ninja would find useful.

By the time he was sixteen, James had grown past living in the orphanage, and finally graduated the academy. His late graduation further accentuated the fact that he was not as capable as the other ninjas, who could control their chakra extremely easily from a young age. James Himself felt like he was the odd one out. Mentally very capable, but unable to physically meet the rigors of ninjutsu teachings. He learned stories of famous clans who could do things other ninja could not, but when it came to his own powers he was lackluster, unable to use them very effectively at all.
James eventually learned greater chakra control learning a varied skill set, specializing in wind and earth jutsu. Wind was something James could relate to, easy and carefree just flowing wherever it liked. Something James himself aspired to be like. While having a knack for lightning, James just felt himself to be different than what he was supposed to be. A lightning master is a tall order to as of an adolescent. Because of his bloodline James felt almost forced to become a superior raiton user than the rest of his village.
Being himself is something that James found to be more fulfilling. He wasn't a pure lightning kind of guy, which is what took so long to figure out. For all his life, he had tried to force himself to be something he wasnt, brought on by the fact he was raised to be a certain way for the first six years of his life by his father, then expected to be an amazing lightning guru by his teachers and peers due to being a Kyoudo; beause everyone knows all kyoudos are amazing raiton masters rivaled by none. Well, except for one.

The sword dojo was a place James felt more at home. The old dojo in the woods where he originally learned the foundational tenets of swordsmanship. A practice he had let fall into disuse by not training or going on missions. James used to do all of his training at the old raggedy dojo. Until the wee hours of the night. James would be there. Working on his technique, exhausting himself for the sake of progress, so that he could perform a stroke without any movement at all.
Late at night, after everyone had left James used to practice his family techniques. James ran around the dojo, collecting swords in his field lifting them up to follow him around. The blades danced around him as he found others to greet them, adding to his fanciful collection of edged friends. Forming a circle spinning around him, James attempted to hold sparring sessions with the swords. Fighting them himself. They were slow and cumbersome, but provided extra practice for both his skills.
Eventually James settled himself down. The swords drifted down and lined up in front of him on the floor. James focused on the magnetic fields they each were emanating. Every sword had its own field, and personality; much like a human. The swords behaved and performed based on their magnetic fields. Drawing his attention to solely that; James was able to pick each on up, one by one and fling them across in all directions. Opening up His field even further so that he could still feel their presence.

Bringing his mind back to the present, James opened his eyes. He knew exactly what to do, and how to do it. In his attempt to achieve some greater knowledge of the Kyoudo force, James uncovered the secret of strengthening and expanding ones field. The secret, of course, was to use multiple objects to pry and pull it open, much like a medieval torture device pulling someone apart. Unlike the horse drawn mechanisms of yore. James had a much better, and hopefully much safer idea.
Not wanting to die or severely injure himself, James weighed the pros and cons of if he should attempt his discovery. On one hand he could pull the fabric of his very being apart, or possibly destroy his mind by overloading his senses, on the other hand James would be able to effect a much greater distance, and be a force to be reckoned with by any ninja. A true asset to his village and the people that depend on cloud for protection and other services during times of war, possibly saving someone from a falling building.
James sat in his meditative trance. His legs crossed over one another in the famous lotus sitting position. His back lay against a tree in the yard of the dojo that he rudely walked in upon. He did not care if any other was around or interrupted the service, as he was completely alone mentally. Surrounded only by a sea of metal in his mind. Every little bit lit up and was available for him to move. The screws, nails, weapons, all was seen in his mind. A dull blue glow erupted in his minds eye as he sensed the metal ore around himself as well.

Three Shuriken is what James chose to begin his exercise. He lifted the first one up no problem, the second and third soon followed. Tilting up and lagging behind slightly. They rose to the air in a slow, but timely fashion. He let them sit for a moment. Truly taking in his surroundings. Then without hesitation flung them out in three directions. Each one moved with the swiftness of a fox as the flew about in the air attempting to break free. Pulling his field apart James pushed further on each on until he could almost feel it burst.
The shuriken began to move in seperate directions each bisecting the field centripetally in its own fashion. The swirling frenzy becan whipping air about wildly destroying a bit of the countryside as it went. The circles grew larger, and larger. Each time around farther than the first. James Attempted to slow the progression as it was becoming to much for him to handle. The mental toll it was taking on his senses to even sense them at the speed they were going was immense.
Unfortunately, James could not slow them down. The only way he could think to try and even out the forces as to not be as lopsided. So, the ever genius, decided to go balls to the wall. Full throttle, every piece of metal began slicing at his perimeter with their own little section. James felt like a piece of paper folded to many times, about to burst. The metal continued growing in speed lifting James into the air by the gale it created. James couldn't contain it anymore. The metal exploded outwards slicing up the trees and walls of the dojo emitting a sonic boom from speed. James fell to his knees exhausted from expending so much chakra and physical/mental energy.

Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: Each time trained increases the time before the user must re-activate the Sutatikku Nagare (Static Current) ability by 5 turns. Limit: Sutatikku Nagare (Static Current) ability.
James knew he still had much to learn, but now he felt like he was finally able to perform at the same pace as his peers, maybe someday he would become a great kyoudo practitioner, but for now he was resigned to a low level learner. James wanted to extend his time to keep the technique open even by just a little. James pulled his chakra into himself sending electric jolts into his heart. He welled up the energy reprogramming his biochemistry to work in a way that he could continue to keep open his field for longer. Powering up his heart with electric chakra.
The short procedure on himself was fairly quick given the simplicity of it. James opened his eyes, and rose from his seat. He had to use the restroom very bad. There wasn't anyplace close to his knowledge so he ran back to the main dojo to find a restroom.

Kibikikaze (Brisk Wind) Rank: D Skill: Taijutsu Effect: The user delivers a short, direct punch with their main hand. Special: -- Drawback: -- Description: The user leans forward slightly, throwing a strong, straight-forward punch with their main-hand, aiming for the head or solar plexus. They then resume the stance. Limit: Must learn from a Gintsuki no Seikou Mai Master. Must know Tentou (To Invert)
Kimi figured that move would not work at all. He had seen Ryu use it on him, which gave him the idea of how to use it. But he knew that he had to get creative with his dodges and attack. He would need to combine them, defend and attack at the same time. It was easier said than down especially against someone like Ryu.
First Kimi would would dodge by swaying gently back. Just outside the attack range of the punch, it was then that he shifted forward. He would his his palm to guide the hand to the out side of Ryu's attack. Once there he would let his had slide forward as if he was off balance. Once his hand got to Ryu's elbow he would attempt to grab it.
As he gripped Ryu's elbow he would lean forward while slightly pulling on it. As he did that he would deliver a strong straight punch to Ryu's solar plexus. He would then let go of Ryu's elbow and push off from his chest. Returning to his inverted ready stance and awaiting Ryu's next attack.
Tentou (To Invert) Rank: D Skill: Taijutsu Effect: The user inverts their stance, gently dodging a straight thrust or strike. Special: -- Drawback: Cannot evade wide-radius attacks. Description: The user steps forward with their off-foot, twisting it to face forward. As they do so, they turn their main foot perpendicular and away, creating a mirrored version of the normal stance. As they do this, the user rocks their body backwards slightly, allowing any attacks coming from the front to simply ghost past them. Learning the Tentou teaches one to be equally skilled with their main-side and off-side. Limit: Must learn from a Gintsuki no Seikou Mai Master. Must know Hyouuryuu Yuki (Drifting Snow).
