Godric nodded as he seen this was a very good use of her ability. "Very frightening combination." he then took his multi weapon holster and flung it in an arc above him. "From what it sounds you will not need this, but if you did, you need the holster and swords." as the katana flew threw the air he quickly instructed. "If done right, you can predict where these land as well."

As the landed Godric pointed the spots for which they would land. For at least most of them, the twenty katana all landing quickly, he proved his point well enough. "From what I am guessing though, your flower petals will be your weapons, already out on the battlefield. If that is the case, then you do not need this set up technique." thus he moved over to the katanas stuck into the ground.

He jumped with relative ease onto one of the katana. Even with boots on he was standing on the handle. The katana did not sink into the ground, nor did it budge. If one was observant, they could see his second foot was pressed against the handle in such a way to create a fulcrum, so tension and friction kept everything form slipping askew. It was almost as if physics stopped working, but in reality it was simple balance and leverage. "This is called standing path. It is the maneuvering portion of this demonstration. Some say its a basic teching for the Inifinite sword style."

Godric then started to walk at first, but then started to run along the katana. His feet touching the handles as he skimmed across the field of katana as if it were earth itself. He raised his voice as he noted, "This is called running path, another demonstration in balance and agility. Though should you stop, one must revert back to Standing path..."

Godric then started to kick at Katanas near him. His feet started to grab the katana and hurl them into the sky. Even with boots on, it seemed as if he could grip them with his foot, it was beyond physics how this worked but it did. If one was observant enough, the boot was actually made of a softer leather toward the tip, and split like a ninja shoe. Thus the trick was less magical and more technique and practice."This is the Leg strike, to grab a katana or sword with your foot..." as one came down Godric quickly grabbed it by it's handle as if it were nothing. "And of course Blade catch. this one can be applied to Bolts and Arrows as well."

Thus a rain of katana coming down around Godric. Within the breath of 3 seconds, Godric struck 10 katanas back into the air eight times, using only a single katana. As he continued to juggle in a way he instructed. "Pay attention to this, it is noted as the Infinite strike. But in reality it is a defensive maneuver. Count how many strikes I am able to block within a short time frame and you will see it's value..." he trailed off as he set up for his final demonstration.

With that single katana, he started to literally juggle the other katanas. Ten katanas in the air with but a whirling flick of the one in his hand. "And this is the disorderly line. With it, you unlock truely terrifying offense..." As he did this, with a few skilled flicks of his wrists he produced 3 simultaneous 108 pound cannons from the katana in the air. "As you can see. Not only the 108 cannon but many other Santoryu techniques can be produced through this act of juggling..."

And finally as a final demonstration he let the katana fall around him. He used Catching blade in a very interesting fashion. Counting the one in his hand, one gripped on his foot, one in an elbow, one in an knee, one in his mouth...He was holding seven swords..."But I can see larger potential with your talent should you wish to learn more..." he mumbled through the katana in his mouth...

"Yeah no need for that one. I don't plan on walking around with more than 3 swords at a time. Plus if you're around. I can just use yours." Yuri gave Godric a thumbs up as he continued his demonstration. The First thing he did was he began to walk on the heads of the swords, she tilted her head to the side as she really didn't see the point at first. But she suppose that it would work best on difficult terrain, but that didn't effect her with her ATs, but when she saw him pick the sword up with his booted foot.... that was interesting. She smirked as she immediately hopped onto the sword nearest her, and wobbled for a bit.

This was going to be a bit more difficult than usual seeing that she wore ATs all the time. However, difficulty took on a bit of a different meaning for Yuri. After all she had only been seriously training herself for about a year, and only after she had became the Kusakage, and she was already at this level. She wobbled a bit on the first sword, and then stretched her leg out with a little hop to land on the second sword. Her balance was already markedly better than the first time. She then hopped over towards the next one, and even in the wheeled boots she was in, she remained in perfect balance.

She looked down at the blade, and then raised her free leg up into the air, until it was well over her shoulder. So she had her leg fully extended into the vertically, as she stood like a statue facing forward. The AT's on her feet began to rev both on top of the sword hilt and on the foot that was airborne. Still she somehow remained perfectly balanced as she shift her body and leg into a position where she could fire kicks off into the air. And so she did. She fired off 3 tornado force funnels off into the sky and then the Air Trecks stop revving. Once she was satisfied with her balance she looked around at the other swords.

-------------------------------------------

She looked intently at the swords out in front of her, and then once again the revving of her ATs sounded and she was on the move once again. Like she skated on the ground itself, and staked across the surface of the sword head in the area. Her motions were quite wobbly, as she attempted to follow after Godric. The wheels skid off the side of one of the heads of the sword heads. It was a dangerous thing slipped off the blades at this point. As her foot slipped off the side, she quickly recovered and as she twirled around on the tip of the handle and gathered herself.

After a slip second she was off once again. In reality this wasn't much different than learning to skate over ruff terrain, she just had to be a little more precise with her movements. With the added speed of the AT's she would need a little more prediction, she needed to see just a bit further a head. Her Byakugan flared up and as it did so, she could see the swords all around her. Each of her strides began to get faster and more agile by the instant. She focused in on what she was doing and soon she was sailing across the sea of swords, as easier as she would the surface.

She started to become so comfortable, she turned her back and began to moved across the swords backwards with a smile on her face. She gracefully began to spin across the placed blades as she more or less began to dance across them, after she had become comfortable, which only took about 30 seconds, her Byakugan became deactivated as she continued the same movements without the aid of her Byakugan. The next thing she was going to perform was going to be the weird one.

-----------------------------------------

Yuri looked around at the sword and then pictured what she saw Godric doing earlier. He didn't really give any instruction on how to perform the technique. Maybe that was just his teaching style. She looked down at her foot as she tried to figure out how she was going preform what she saw. While she was still standing on the top of the handle blade, she brought her foot up to her face, as she looked at her ATs. She had a curious look on her face, and then began to rev up her wheels once again. She made a curious sound and then placed her foot down once again.

She extended her foot out and revved the AT's once again. After she had revved up her ATs the wheels rubbed against top of the sword handle. As the wheels rubbed the top of the sword handle, the handle got itself wedged in between the wheel. Yuri had a smile on her face as she then looked up into the air, and then swung her foot towards the sky. As she whipped her foot upward, her ATs began to rev once again but in the opposite direction than before. The blade then shot out of the the ATs up into the air. Yuri made a curious look, as she wasn't sure if that was going to be the best method.

She was going to have to figure out a better way to do this than Godric. She didn't wear normal boots, she instead wore Motorized States. She went on the move once again, and extended her foot, as the ATs revved and lodged the blade into the wheels once again. She reversed the movement of the wheels once again and then another sword launched off into the air. She groaned as she was sure that this was using too many steps, she was going to have to try something different. The ideas were already flowing through her mind.

[Draven]

Godric couldn't help but to laugh. Though at first this was not a hard concept, it get's interesting when applied to different footwear. Though seeing how she was doing this was very intelligent, "Almost have it!" though took a second look and could see the scuff on the handle of that katana... D:

   An hour prior to coming out to The Meadows, Inoryu made his way through the entrance of the Kusakage's Keep, past the the common room, auditorium, Vlad's office and ascended to the library. He was determined to discover a method to defeat the phantasmal hunter jutsu and would use all of the resources available in his endeavor. He proceeded to the genjutsu aisle and browsed through the titles of books and observed the various scrolls. He picked out several books that may have an answer with titles such as Understanding Genjutsu Resistance, The Invisible Killer, A Shadow of a Dream, A Figment of the Imagination, How to Survive Genjutsu, and more.

    He placed the books on the ground and picked up a scroll wrapped in purple parchment. He opened it to read its contents and discovered it was a scroll about the phantasm perception. He took the scroll and the books over to a table and he continued to read more into the scroll... "Hidetoshi Onigawa slammed his cup in frustration and demanded more saki. His frustration became red-blooded anger. His rival, Ogi Shinoda, had nearly killed him in the last mission. Their rivalry was becoming more dangerous every passing day. It was obvious that Ogi attempted to sabotage Hidetoshi and he had no respect for life. If Hidetoshi did nothing, then he would surely die. Ogi must be stopped. 

    Hidetoshi complained but his team leader always dismissed his concerns as delusions. In fear for his life, the only solution Hidetoshi could come up with was to kill Ogi before Ogi killed him. Fighting between ninja of the same land was forbidden, so Ogi waged his war incognito and Hidetoshi would have to fight fire with fire. Hidetoshi knew that he couldn't best Ogi with ninjutsu or taijutsu, so he turned to genjutsu."

    Inoryu unraveled the scroll further and continued to read, "Hidetoshi Onigawa knew that Ogi Shinoda had some talent in genjutsu, but it wasn't his primary style. In fact, Ogi hardly ever used genjutsu but for decoys, he relied heavily on ninjutsu and taijutsu. After being on the same team for over a year, Hidetoshi understood that Ogi employed the phantasm perception: a genjutsu that deceives the person's senses by tricking the mind. Ogi's used his chakra not to manifest figments, but to attack the subjects mind. Hidetoshi had no particular talent, but the nature of his rivalry caused him to study and learn the phantasm perception, in order to best his deadly rival."

    "For months, Hidetoshi trained in secret. Every time Ogi used ninjutsu without regard for his life, he used that anger to fuel his training. He snuck out of the village and trained the phantasm perception on the predators of the woods. The phantasms he produced became more convincing, more enchanting, and more dangerous. Eventually he was able to affect the mind in many debilitating ways.

    After five months, he learned to employ phantasms to deadly effect. Capable of convincing the mind that it was dead and ultimately realizing the deception, Hidetoshi believed this was the appropriate response to Ogi's intentionally reckless and deadly behavior. Hidetoshi counted the numerous near death experiences caused solely by Ogi's ninjutsu and it was plenty. He had third degree burns by Ogi's fire, had lost his pinky toe to Ogi's ice release, and had lost a liter of blood due to Ogi's slicing winds. Ogi had no regard for his life, and he would cut Hidetoshi down to get to the enemy."

    Inoryu unrolled the scroll further and continued to read, "Hidetoshi could not openly challenge Ogi because it was forbidden, so he devised a plan. The next time they split up on a mission and Hidetoshi and Ogi were alone, he would make his move. He was patient, merely doing his best to survive Ogi because many times he was more dangerous than the enemy. Hidetoshi would kill Ogi in stealth and no one would be the wiser. He had thought about the lies he would tell after the deed was over, and it seemed a simple thing to do.

    "While on a mission to obtain a missive, the team was ordered to split up and Hidetoshi and Ogi were ordered to guard a checkpoint. This was Hidetoshi's greatest opportunity. He inconspicuously stepped behind Ogi to conceal the hand seals. Upon completion the jutsu that would end Ogi's life had been put in place. Overwhelmed with fear, Ogi fled from the killer. Hidetoshi would carry on the mission as if nothing had happened, having preemptively thought of lies to tell.

    "Hidetoshi held his position from the enemy ninja who were delivering the missive and his teammates executed a successful ambush. When the squad leader asked about Ogi, Hidetoshi lied and said that he wandered off without knowing where he went. That he thought Ogi was taking out the enemy in hiding, but otherwise had no idea. Hidetoshi continued and said that he was surprised not to find Ogi with the ambush. He suggested that they did a search for him."

    Inoryu unraveled more of the scroll and continued reading, "Hidetoshi and his team searched for an hour but couldn't find Ogi so one by one they eventually regrouped to the checkpoint, Hidetoshi being the last to arrive. He was beginning to feel a little bit anxious about his phantasm not yet killing the subject, but he understood that the longer the jutsu went on, the more difficult it would be to disbelieve. With no other choice, Hidetoshi and his team went to the nearby village to continue searching and lounge for the night.

    "Hidetoshi had been asking around the village for hours for the whereabouts of his teammate, Ogi, but as he expected, he heard nothing. He returned to his room where he was alone and was prepared to turn in, when the most fearsome beast appeared. Hidetoshi panicked, but he was cornered. The beast, conjured by the latent fears of his subconscious, approached slowly. Hidetoshi cowered, screamed, and when his teammates entered the room, Hidetoshi was dead, and Ogi arrived at the check point the next day."

    Inoryu unraveled the scroll further and discovered the mechanics of taking command of a genjutsu. It was explained in detail the theory, the principle and execution. The chuunin was lucky, he had found exactly what he had been looking for. He continued to read and learn as much about it as he could. It would appear that learning this jutsu was within his understanding.

    Having learned that such a genjutsu existed, the history of who created the genjutsu, how it came about, and the theory behind it, he was eager to learn it. Without any procrastination, Inoryu headed towards the first training area of The Meadow in order to attempt to learn the genjutsu himself. He weaved his fingers together in the shadow clone hand seal and produced a single one. The shadow clone was imbued with his orders already, but even so Inoryu was highly intuitive and this was reflected with his shadow clones. They tend to have a way that allowed them to act as an extension of Inoryu, having the same thinking processes and working cohesively with the other shadow clones. 
    The shadow clone understood that though his genjutsu was potent, his own resilience was even greater. He first had to deliberate which genjutsu he thought would be the most successful, then he would have to cast it as many times as he could for it to have a chance to take effect. Of course, the phantasmal lich, phantasmal killer and phantasmal hunter genjutsu were off limits, but those were some of his most powerful. After a brief moment, he decided to try his chances with the bewildering visions genjutsu. He immediately weaved through the series of hand seals and continued to repeat them over nine times. 
    After nine attempts with the bewildering visions genjutsu, nothing seemed to happen. He had no choice but to take it up a notch. He attempted the human porcupine genjutsu and repeated the hand seals until he sensed a successful genjutsu. The success came after his fourth attempt. Inoryu perceived hundreds of spikes penetrating his body from the ground and the unbearable pain that accompanied it. "I'm sorry," the shadow clone said as he looked away solemnly. Though it was excruciating, Inoryu's training had begun.

    According to the theory of how Ogi accomplished the command illusions genjutsu, the first step was to search within one's self. This is the most difficult step because it is hard to completely dismiss reality as it is perceived. Depending on the genjutsu one wishes to command, it could be a significant challenge to solely focus on one's inner self in the event of being under the genjutu's spell. The terrible pain inflicted all throughout Inoryu's body was second only to the feeling of helplessness. He coudn't help but cry out in agony as an involuntary response. 
    The pain was blinding because it had taken over his world. He could perceive nothing else. If he moved in the slightest, the pain would worsen and radiate around the spikes that impaled him to the ground. He must be still, he must avoid pain. His breathing became ragged as he hopelessly searched for external relief. The relief didn't come. He tried to retreat into himself, into his inner world, but the pain was prevalent. He whimpered at his failed attempt of meditate escape. The pain ruled his existence. 
    He stopped for a moment and focused solely on his breathing. It might have numbed the pain, though he couldn't really tell. What he did feel was the subtle effect of remaining calm, and he grasped that feeling and held on to it tightly. The more he focused on his breathing and remaining calm, the less the pain seemed to effect him. He could bear it now, the pain was terrible but somehow less relevant. For the next couple of minutes, he merely stood there, in the midst of the hundreds of spikes impaling him to the ground, paralyzed. He continued to focus on his strained, ragged breathing.

    Time seemed to pass slowly, every millisecond timed with each breath. The shadow clone averted his gaze as he felt remorse for having put himself through the terrible genjutsu, but he tried to cast a less debilitating genjutsu to no avail. He had gotten so resilient that only advanced genjutsu were most likely to effect him now. He clenched his fist and gritted his teeth as he listened to Inoryu struggle with each breath. If his counterpart were actively working to dispel the genjutsu, he would have already broken the it, but the minutes seemed to drag on in order to attempt a genjutsu that may not even work. 
    Inoryu felt a more present sense of calm, that he imagined was like a candle in the abyss. He held on to the flickering flame and placed as much attention on it as he could. He dared not move, lest he could break his concentration. Over the next minute, his breathing became steadier, and the calm even sparked sensations of pleasure where he perceived he was pierced by the spikes. Finally, and naturally, he felt ready to proceed. 
    He closed his eyes and somehow he felt more distant from his current situation. He turned all of his attention inwards, to every fiber of his being and beyond. He visualized his chakra network and searched it endlessly. Amidst the metaphysical energy, he found a disruption, and a channel that funneled the foreign chakra. He sighed with what would've been relief, but he wasn't out of the woods yet. He carefully observed the disrupting nature of the foe's chakra and used that knowledge to adapt his own chakra to the foreign one. Then he pushed his own chakra to flow through the foe's channel and the as it did, it took on the properties of the genjutsu.

His chakra reached the opponent and as the genjutsu was released, he heard the shadow clone cry out and vanish in a cloud of smoke. Inoryu fell into a slouch as he had gotten used to the spikes as stability. Still not having acclimated to reality, he was afraid of standing up right in a effort to avoid the illusory pain. Yet in a way he could not explain, the pain still affected him. 

    Eventually, he did move slightly to a better posture and realized that the pain and spikes were truly gone, and so was his shadow clone. As he stood upright, he observed the evidence of a successful command illusion jutsu. He was then overwhelmed with relief and he noticed the tears that had run down his cheek; another involuntary response to his seemingly impossible situation, though the streaks were dry now. He felt as though he was the victim of the genjutsu for hours, but he surmised only a few minutes had passed. 

    Then, he smiled. The smile became a chuckle. Eventually he found himself laughing wholeheartedly at the sheer absurdity. He was overjoyed that he had successfully executed the genjutsu, which seemed like a huge milestone in his life. He dismissed the pain that he was still feeling in favor of sheer bliss and fell down to his back laughing all the way. He laughed towards the Heavens, splayed out on the ground. He couldn't stop laughing. He was manic. Once the thrill was over, he would exit The Meadow and go for lunch.

Yuri looked over at the ATs once again, and then looked over her shoulder to give Godric a looked as he gave her some words of encouragement. She frowned and then looked back at her ATs. What she was doing was working sort of, but it was too clumsy for her liking. She continued to stare down at her feet as she stood there on top of one of the blade handles. She folded her arms as she focused in on blade. She couldn't really grab it with her ATs, like she wanted, but maybe there was another way to do this? She narrowed her eyes and as she did so she began to apply the same principle she did with the Gentle fist to her feet.

She didn't know why it took her this long to come up with this. As far as she had observed so far, Hyuuga's Gentle fist was the pinnacle of taijutsu. So why hadn't she thought of incorporating it to solve all of her Taijutsu related difficulties. She smirked as needle like chakra strands came out of her ATs. Those strains wrapped around the blade handle gently. With out the use of Byakugan, one would not be able to see the strains wrapping around the handle. She lifted her foot up into the air, slowly, and as she did so her ATs revved. As they revved the strains tightened and the sword snapped out of the ground. Yuri sent out a kick sending the blade flying.

She smirked as her revved up and then took off over the blade handles with glee. SHe extended her Foot and the strains reached out in and instant and like a super powered magnet the sword quickly attached to the bottom of her ATs and then she sent another one launching out into the distance. She giggled as she continued to twist and twirl through the area, as her ATs scooped up Sword after sword and launched them off into the air above her. After a moment she slid to a stop on the ground, and looked over at Godric, "Yeah, it was easy enough, to figure out."
