(TRAVEL to sand village, Invite Only)

[shinzo-kori]

Jai and Rowidren had been travling for a day and half no stop till they reached the River Country. There mission was to protect the Sand village, but they had some time before they got there. After a fews hours of running, the two stopped."Lets take a brake, we keep going at this pace, we won't even be able complete our mission." Jai walked over to the side of the road and sat down on a boulder. Pulling the backpack from his back, he opened the zipper and reached in for a water bottle.

He tossed the water bottle to Rowidren and then dug back into his bag for another one. He opened the bottle and took a long sip of water, and then closed his eyes."I don't like the idea of this Kazekage ordering us around and taking over our village. It kind of pisses me off, and I hope our new hokage will do something about it...." Jai said before he made a deep and annoyed sigh."Maybe we should train or something, I have no idea of what these sand ninja have up their sleeve, but I don't plan on getting caught in some type of trap."

Kaze Kiri no Jutsu (Wind Drill Technique)
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: B Rank
Effect: ---
Description: The user creates another arrow from his mouth that is fired from the mouth. This time though the arrow is in the shape of a drill, much like the arrow Kidoumaro uses in his last attack against Neji. The drill passes through stone and tree but once it hits the ground it dispels. This arrow can drill through a person.
Limit: Wind Release

[26/80]

Jai hopped off the boulder he sat ontop of and turned around to face it. He first began a short breathing session, of course he couldn't spend so much time meditating like he usaully would. He focused on small breaths before preparing for one final deep breath for his jutsu. After a few more seconds of these deep breath, he took one final one deep within his lungs. The chakra within his body then began to gather into his lungs and prepared the drill arrow. After a few seconds of holding his breath, he then focused on the boulder before him and blew out a much larger shaped wind arrow. The tip was shaped like a drill, which would pierce through the stone before him.

The arrow blew out at a blinding speed, almost impossible to see as it hit the surface of the stone. Then like a loud grinding noise, drilled through the surface for a short moment. It wasn't quite powerful enough to push through further, but much more practice would perfect the technique. He walked to the boulder and placed his finger into the hole to measure the distance. He esitmated about ten inches deep, and that was progress compared to the trees he practiced on back home. He then stood back and took some more small breaths to ready himself again for the jutsu. After a moment of this, he gathered a large amount of oxygen into his lungs.

Then he gathered an even larger amount of chakra into his lungs for an even stronger arrow. After a second of the mixing, he released the arrow from his mouth and sent it flying straight for the boulder before him. The arrow hit the surface and again made that drilling noise. Rocks chipped from the boulder as dust collected at the bottom of the boulder. After a few seconds of waiting, the arrow finally vaporized. Jai walked up to it once again and looked into the hole, making another estimate. It seemed to go a little deeper then last time, but it still didn't go directly through the stone. He needed much more practice, and it wasn't a jutsu he felt he could practice much with Rowidren for the fact that it was dangerous.

If Rowidren needed help with his own training he would help as best as he could, till then he would continue his own training session. He would continue these steps on creating the arrows, hitting the target, and measuring his new distance.

[Kinz]

Rowidren stopped alongside Jai, and caught the water bottle thrown to him. It flowed down his throat with a cool refreshing sensation. It felt good. Rowidren knew that the training Jai was doing was more to get ready for any traps or something of the kind as they made their way to the sand village. For the moment Rowidren decided he would rest and recover his chakra instead, then start his training upon arrival.

Rowidren sat upon a nearby rock and began watching Jais training. He planned on helping if necassary, but until asked he would just wait. Eventually Rowidren got board and setup a camp, figuring they would have to spend the night. He built a tiny cook fire, and created a couple of small beds made of leaves and twigs. The funny thing was that in the middle of the bed there was a gap where leaves should be. This was where the rocks that he placed in the fire would be buried. The heated rocks giving them a nice, warm, comfy spot to sleep on (sry, been watching to much man vs wild ;D). After the sleeping arangments were made Rowidren walked over the the nearby river and began soaking his feet in the refreshing water. Using a combination of his sharingan and the wiehgted chain on the end of Banryu, Rowidren would through the weight at passing fish and knock them out, then collect them and begin skinning them for dinner.

By the time he was done, Jai had finished his training. He set the fish by the fire to cook and sat down across from Jai. This was odd to Rowidren. He had been on only one mission before, and the quietness on that ocation had been understandable, but here Rowidren was developing some sort of social complex. "About that apology you gave me back at the village, no worries. I took it a little overboard myself. It is good to go all out in a spar like that, and even better if noon dies. So in reality there is nothing to apologize for. Not realy waiting or looking for a response, Rowidren grabbed the now cooked fish and ate, making sure to offer Jai as much as he wanted, there was plenty after all. After eating Rowidren extinguished the fire and took the heated rocks, and buried them under his bed, then laid down to sleep. It was just as comfortable as he hoped.

After waking the next moring Rowidren got up and brushed the leaves from his person. He was fairly well rested. Rowidren gently woke Jai with a light tap from his foot. "Hey, it's time to get goin. Come on." The training probably tired him out so Jai was doing the '5 more minutes' count of doom. Finally after about 10 '5 more minutes' ai awoke and they headed for their new post. It would not take them to long to reach their destination, but Rowidren hoped he didn't know what would await them at the end. He had heard that the wind country was basically just a desert, and if they were protecting it's boarders then that means they would be living in a desert too. Their travel was swift, but the change in enviroment was even swifter. It went from a lush land full of rivers and plains, to baren nothingness. Sand as far as the eye could see. The sun began to beat down like a drum. This was not going to be a pleasent experience.

+8 - Jai

[shinzo-kori]

(Jenzo gave me permission to learn this)

As Jai walked down the road to through River country headed for Fire country, Jai saw someone along the road headed the opposite direction. He was tall man, something odd about him from his swagger. He seemed to have a confident look of great power, something Jai hadn’t seen before. Jai wasn’t sure how far the next village was since he went a different way then when he came to Wind country in the first place. “Excuss me, do you know how far the next village is.” Jai asked politely. The man turned around and faced the boy, giving him an evil look of an insane being. Jai gasped for air and stepped back out of fear. “What kid, you act like you’ve seen a ghost….” The man said with an attitude. Jai was scared, just looking into his eyes brought chills to him, and he was all alone on this path. “I wish Rowidren were here…..” Jai thought to himself as he looked at the man. “Who…..who are you?” Jai asked. The man grinned and crossed his arms. “Possibly the last thing you ever see kid if you don’t act right. Now answer my question…..who are you, and where are you headed?”

Jai wasn’t sure if it were the wisest thing to tell him, but he did anyways. “…..I’m Jai…..Nazaka Jai from the village hidden in the leaves. I had orders from the Kazekage to come to the sand village…….if you kill me, they will come looking for me.” Jai said, he wasn’t sure if that were true or not, but what the man had to say next shattered that dream. “hmmm…..seems you haven’t been home for awhile have you? Hahaha, boy are you dumb!” The man said leaving Jai worried of what he meant. “Leaf is long gone kid, destroyed once again, even the Kazekage’s dead. Your going to no where is where your headed.” The man said. How could it be, his home destroyed, and everything in it. “Your lying, your trying to trick me.” Jai said in denial. The man cracked a evil smile and laughed, “I don’t lie kid, have no reason to lie.” Jai still couldn’t believe this, he knew he was gone for awhile but not that long. “No, your lying to m-” with a flash, the man grabbed Jai by the neck and lifted him up to the sky. “I told you…..I don’t lie!” The man said angered by Jai’s nonsense.

He then threw over into the trees and through some bushes. Jai had no idea of whom he spoke to, the great Black Waltz, evil Jounin of the mist village. Though Jai did not know this, he decided to defend himself. He pulled himself up from the pushes he laid on top of and took in a deep breath while creating handseals. “What are you doing boy…….Katon no Kidora huh?” the man said. Jai looked up eyes wide open, this man knew what jutsu he used anyways. Jai shrugged it off and took in a large breath, mixing chakra into his lungs and then blowing out a large dragon of fire. This dragon then split into three, one directed for the mans head, the second for the mans stomach, and the third for his leg. The man smirked as the dragons headed in his direction and quickly transported in a flash before Jai and grabbed him by the neck again. Jai drastically grabbed for his arm as a source to keep himself from hanging by his throat. “Nice jutsu, but I’ve seen them all.” The man said as he lifted Jai up and threw him back out into the road.

Jai bounced along the dirt and skid about twenty feet till he stopped. The man just stood still and laughed at Jai’s weakness. Jai picked himself up and inhaled a large amount of oxygen, and while he got up he mixed chakra into his lungs. Then he quickly span around and spat out a drill arrow directed for the man’s face which would instantly kill him. The man leaned to the side and followed the drill arrow with his eyes as he dodged it. Quickly Jai used this as a distraction and body flickered in front of him and slide to the ground attempting to kick him up into the air to use his flaming phoenix technique. Sadly the man was not a fool, and grabbed Jai by the ankle with his index finger and thumb before he could land a kick on him. “Wow you really want to kill me don’t you……hahaha” the man laughed to get Jai even angrier then before. Jai placed his hands on his side and lifted his left foot up directed for the mans face in a caporiea type style of fighting. The man quickly leaned back and watched as the foot blew by him. “Caporiea…..what else do you know?” the man said out of curiosity

Jai growled as he pushed off the ground and threw a flaming punch, the Hi Kobushi style of fighting. The man span off to the side as he grabbed Jai by the arm and avoided the flames that flew straight for his chest, but he still felt a slight burn from the flames near his arms. Of course he himself was a genius when it came to fire techniques so this did not faze him. “Hi Kobushi…..I must say your pretty well rounded” The man said still curious of his strength. Then Jai placed his other hand into the palm of his right hand, and began a few handseals, “TRY DODGING THIS ONE!” Jai yelled as he finished the handseals for his vortex sphere which could reach over nine meters and unavoidable. The man vanished into the ground as the flash of the vortex appeared and everything around Jai began to feel the force of the move. Then Jai looked over at where his opponent was to see he was gone, but then he felt something at his foot. He quickly tried to get away but it was to late, the man had used the double suicide technique and grabbed his ankle. “This is the end…….” Jai thought to himself as the man pulled him in.

He pulled him in till his arms were also barried into the ground and let go. Jai had never seen some one do this with the technique, and now with his arms gone, he couldn’t do much. The man appeared from under ground and stood before Jai looking down on him. “You lose kid….how does it feel.” The man said. Jai didn’t say a word, he just looked down at the ground and took in a deep breath. “Your pretty skilled, to bad you had to die today….” The man said as he tested Jai. Jai then looked up and released the breath he had held to shape a wind drill directed for the mans face and it penetrated, going directly into his skull. “NO YOU LOSE!” Jai said aloud in excitement. He then struggled to loosen up the ground around his arms but couldn’t. He then tried to dig into the ground with his shoulders in a panic, but still nothing happened. “Dammit……how am I going to get out of here!” Jai yelled, but his anger soon turned into shock as he heard the sound of applause behind him. “Bravo kid, you fought even to the end…..” the man said.

He was still alive, and when Jai looked over at the dead body before him, he saw that it was a replacement jutsu. Jai sighed and gave in, “You win….just finish it already….” The man peered at the boy trapped under the earth and walked over in front of him. He then lifted his fist as if he were going to punch Jai, causing him to close his eyes shut, but instead punched into the ground. It cracked the earth around him and freed Jai arms. Jai quickly pulled out of the earth and got back into a fighting stance. “Jumpy aren’t we, I’ll let you live kid don’t get so aggravated.” The man said in a joking matter as if he were scared, but of course he knew he could kill Jai easily. “Why didn’t you kill me?” Jai asked very curious. The man’s jaw dropped, “Why is it that the people I let live always ask me that question, be GRATEFUL YOU BRAT!” the man yelled. Jai sighed and got out of his fighting stance. The man shrugged and turned back towards the direction he was headed in the first place. “Wait!.....were you telling me the truth about my home?”

The man stopped and looked into the sky as if looking for some type of sign that Jai didn’t really ask that question. “I’m sorry……can I at least know your name?” Jai asked trying to move past the truth of his home. The man turned around and walked back to Jai. “I will tell you once and remember it well, my name is Black Waltz, possibly one of the greatest ninja you will ever meet. People fall to their knees when they hear my voice out of fear.” The man said, as if Jai was suppose to know. “So umm…….should I be on my knees right now?” Jai said sort of sarcastically as a joke. “You know what, I should have killed you little brat!” Black yelled as he raised his fist to punch Jai. Jai placed his hands in front of his face as defense and quickly spoke, “I’m sorry forgive me….I was joking. So a great ninja like you must know a lot of great powers.” Jai said trying to suck up to him. Black was no fool, he wasn’t some idiot that fell for kindness, something he never showed himself. “Don’t try and butter me up kid, many have tried and died doing it….” Black said in a deep voice.

“Well I am serious……do you know anything you could teach me?” Jai asked innocently. The man peered at Jai and then laughed as he turned around and walked away. “Hey! I’m serious do you know anything I can learn?” Jai asked, he really wanted to know. “I’ll let you know something kid, anything I have to show you is to much for you to handle…..haha nice try though.” The man said as he continued down the road. Jai ran over to his bag and ran after him. “I bet you I can learn anything you through at me….how much do you want to bet?!” Jai said with a big smile on his face. “I don’t have the time or energy to play child games with you “Jai”, so leave me alone.” The man said as he closed his eyes and walked away. Jai stopped and clenched his fist in frustration. “I know you see potential…….your just afraid that if I become strong I could excel to places you have never been…..that’s all I have experience my whole life!” Jai said speaking from the heart. The man wasn’t the type to hear sob stories, but almost everything Jai said was true.

He did see potential in Jai, but most of his students never make it, and Jai could be just another failed experiment. He then stopped and walked back to Jai. “Fine words are true, but know I don’t fear you now, or any potential I see for your future. I will teach one jutsu, and maybe if your lucky another…… only on one condition boy……” Black said in a serious tone. Jai nodded and waited for that answer. “When I call for you to do something for me, you will do as I tell you. If I need you to retrieve anything for me you will get it even if it costs your life. If I need a sacrifice……you will be it….” The man said, but the final part of the deal scared Jai. Was he ready and willing to give his life for a evil man like this, would it be right? He wasn’t even sure if he was the man responsible for the attacks on Konoha, this could be a mistake. He wanted to learn, at all costs, and he will do as he is told. “Yes…..I accept….” Jai said as he verbally signed his life away. Jai took in a deep breath and waited on Black’s response.

An evil glare appeared in Black’s eyes as the answer rang in his ear. “Excellent, prepare to learn a jutsu that only I have mastered. I have only taught it to a few, and you are one of the lucky ones kid, so pay attention. I have focused my time and skill in a jutsu, one I have personally created called the “My Shadow” technique. It takes focus, power, and energy to learn and excel in……are you ready to learn this jutsu?” The man asked. Jai grinned and nodded, “YES SENSI!” The word sensi rang in Black’s ear…..it was a nice thing to hear. Black walked into the woods and continued down an unknown path till he reached a river where no one would see the training they would undergo. Jai followed, still unsure of Black’s intentions but he followed anyways. When they got there, Black sat at the river and relaxed. Jai waited patiently for about ten minutes until he grew a bit impatient.

[shinzo-kori]

“So are you gonna teach me the jutsu or not?” Jai said impatiently. Black had been playing games and he didn’t know if he was serious about teaching him. Black looked the Jai up and down and smirked. “Tsk……..fine, but I don’t want to hear any complaining. Don’t go around teaching this because it won’t work you understand kid?” Black said impatiently as got up and leaned against large boulder near the river. Jai smiled and nodded in response. “Fine, now learning this jutsu takes a large amount of time, and you have to be patient while learning it.” Black said as he placed his hands together and closed his eyes. Jai watched, focused on every single movement Black would make in hopes that it wouldn’t miss a step. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat, Ox…..” Black said out loud for Jai to hear him. “You must do this ten times in a row, focusing half of the chakra you own on the process. It is like a clone, only you must put your all into it, and focus on shifting that chakra out into the clone that will soon appear.” Black said giving Jai wisdom on how to do the jutsu.

Jai placed his hands together and tried to mimic his handseals. “Don’t follow me, watch and listen so you can understand what I am teaching you……got it?” Black said quite impatiently, he didn’t have much patience for things such as a impatient student……ironic he was the same way. He continued creating the handseals, “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox….Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox….Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox….Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox…. Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox…. Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox….” Black repeatedly said the handseals out loud so that Jai could take to memory. Jai did, and it wasn’t so hard for the fact that he knew all of the handseals so it wouldn’t be much of a problem. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox…. Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox…. Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox…. Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox!” Black yelled aloud as he completed the final handseals. Then he paused for a moment, with his eyes closed shut and began to focus fully on the task at hand.

Jai didn’t speak because he didn’t want to interrupt him, he just really wanted to learn this “amazing jutsu” of his. Black then opened his eyes and began to focus on releasing his chakra before him, something of course Jai couldn’t see. He just figured that whatever he was doing didn’t work, but then something weird happened. From under him, his shadow began to move before him and turn into a puddle of darkness. “A Nara clan technique?!” Jai questioned aloud in shock, his eyes wide open. The shadow before him began to morph into the shape of two feet, and then two legs. Jai couldn’t believe what he saw, he knew how a clone appeared, but this formed through morphing. The shadow slowly created a waist, and then up to the chest. The look on Black’s face was of full focus, and that just proved to Jai how difficult this jutsu really was. Jai continued to watch, feeling a little less confident about learning this jutsu because he was unsure of wheter or not he was skilled enough to learn a jutsu like this.

Slowly the chest grew shoulders, and then the shoulders outstretched into arms. Then it shaped the neck, and then a face and hair, all within about five minutes. After the shape was fully complete, the shadow began to gain pigment, and the clothing it wore looked exactly like Black’s. “A-amazing…..I’ve never seen such jutsu before.” Jai said in astonishment. He of course had seen shadow clones and everything like that, but never a shadow clone like this. The pigment was much darker then Black’s, and his eyes glowed red as they stared into Jai’s. The clone smirked and nodded before speaking, “You seem shocked kid, I told you I was the real deal from the start.” Black’s clone said while Black crossed his arms and smirked also. “The kid is trying to get back home to the leaf village…..I told him its destroyed.” Black said to the clone. As if two old friends, they began to conversate with each other…..strange that a clone would have the personality to hold a conversation with another person.

[shinzo-kori]

“Well lets see what the kid’s got then shall we. Alright then boy, time for a meditation session.” The clone ordered Jai, of course Jai was experienced in meditation, but he had no idea of how much this jutsu would strain him. To absorb so much chakra from his body as quickly as he possible could seemed extreme, but he kind of bragged about his skill so he had to prove himself. He sat down on the grass and crossed his legs before placing his hands together and closing his eyes. The clone and Black began to conversate again, and Jai couldn’t help but listen in. “Hey kid…..get back to meditating!” Black said, he wasn’t some fool that didn’t know what a person who was really focusing looked like. Jai got back to meditating and relaxed, enhaling deeply as he became one with his surroundings. He had no idea on how he planned to do this, but he was going to learn it no matter what it cost. He thought it was the coolest jutsu he had ever learned, and he was excited he ran into such a ninja.

Twenty minutes had passed and the clone still was there, this wasn’t some joke, it was the real deal. Jai felt that this was enough to do the jutsu, but a quick bang on the head knocked him back down to the ground. “You stop when I say so!” the clone said. Jai rubbed the large lump on his head, “Which one are you?!” Jai said sarcastically. The real Black soon answered the question with another punch to the head. “OUCH!!! Gosh ok sorry…..” Jai yelled as he rubbed his head and tried to get rid of the pain. He placed his hands together and continued to meditate, hearing the sound of the two with their conversation and the wildlife all around them. It was quite calming, and no one else was around so no one else would be watching. Jai continued, taking in large breaths, each helping him relax to the point where he wouldn’t feel like he had to strain himself anymore. Minutes passed by, and then an hour of meditation and the clone was still there……strange. Jai continued though, almost to the point where he began to fall asleep, and that’s when Black felt he was ready.

Another large bump on the head woke Jai up to the realization that it was time to begin. “Grrrr……why do you have to do that all the time?!” Jai said out of frusturation and anger of being abused. Black and his clone just laughed for a quick moment before getting back to business. “Ok Jai, I want you to make as many clones as you can.” Black said as he crossed his arms. Jai nodded and stood up into his normal jutsu stance. He placed his hands together and focused on creating a couple of clones. He made the handseals and with a quick puff of smoke, three clones, that including himself. Then Jai placed his hands in his pockets and waited for further instruction. “……well I guess I can’t expect better effort from a kid like you…..nevermind then-” Black said before he was cut off. “Wait, wait, wait I can make a few more watch.” Jai said trying to stop him from leaving before putting his hands together. Then he focused on making the handseals, and then he made them. Another puff of smoke and he had about seven clones around him.

Jai then smiled and stretched, “You want some more?” Jai said sarcastically. Black rolled his eyes before speaking, “Whatever….I just wanted to see if you have the skills to handle a move like this…….your getting there. To be honest though, you could only make the toe of a clone with the amount your putting into your clones. I want to see full effort.” Black said trying to drop the games and get serious. Jai nodded and listened carefully. “Ok, now I want you to follow the handseals I told you. Practice them over and over again till I think you have them memorized and then we’ll take it to the next step.” Black said before letting Jai continue on with his practice. Jai nodded again and placed his hands together, getting ready to practice the jutsu. “Ok, lets see……..Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox…. Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox….” Jai said as he slowly made the handseals for the jutsu. It was simple to create the handseals at the speed he was doing it, but now he needed to do it a little faster.

[Nira]

Jai, + 20

Pure pwn, heh, first A rank, maybe I should start on mine too.

[shinzo-kori]

[20/100]

He then focused harder, trying to get the handseals down without fiddling his hands. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox…” Jai said aloud as he repeated the handseals even quicker then before. He was determined to learn this jutsu, and he wanted to learn it quickly. He continued as the two Black’s talked, possibly about evil plans they had for the future. Jai still didn’t trust him fully, but he really wanted to learn it. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox….” Jai said aloud. “That’s it now do it two more times and focus your chakra two your feet and into the shadow below you.” Black quickly said before Jai did the handseals ten times…..obviously he was watching. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox!” Jai yelled as he completed the final handseals and focused his chakra into his feet like Black did before.

Then he pushed a large percentage of his chakra down into the ground towards his shadow. He struggled and strained trying to lift the shadow or manipulate it like a Nara would do. He continued, pushing and pushing his chakra into the shadow as he began to sweat. The chakra was doing something because the shadow was becoming darker, but it still wasn’t moving. “Don’t strain yourself, let the chakra move to the shadow smoothly or you will never be able to shape the perfect clone.” Black said trying to tell Jai to do. He still strained, and a angry Black solved that problem by hitting him in the head again. “I told you to stop straining! Dammit kid listen!” Jai was on the ground out cold from the much harder punch to the top of his head. Not only was it the punch, but all of the straining had caused him to feel light headed, and he quickly fell asleep. Black and his clone looked at each other and with an equal sigh of impatience, picked Jai up and walked him over to the river. Then they dumped him in the slow moving river to wake him up. “GUAHH COLLLLDDD!!!” Jai yelled out in shock. This was going to be a long day, possibly week.

[shinzo-kori]

[20/100]

Jai sat in the sun in front of the river he was just dumped in, trying to dry and meditate. Black and his clone still kept their conversation, like a person speaking to himself aloud. Jai continued to focus on his meditation, trying not to strain himself again or else he would end getting hit in the head again. His chakra ran smooth now, and he didn’t know if it was the fact that he was cool from the heat or what, but he could concentrate better. “Sensi…..will you teach me something else if I learn this?” Jai said trying to get on his good side with the word Sensi. “Maybe, depending on how fast you learn this stuff, I don’t have a lot of time to waste on one pupil…..” Black responded. Jai just sighed and continued on his meditation. He began to breath in deeply, and the exhale deeply. He did it so much that he almost passed out. Then he placed his hands together and got ready for more handseals. “Ok, now do the handeals and focus the chakra into your feet and out into your shadow.” The clone said to Jai.

Jai nodded and focused, but not so much to strain himself. He then began the handseals, “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox,” Halfway into making the handseals, he focused a large amount of chakra into his feet and tried to spread it along the ground. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox.” With one left, he felt the chakra flow into the souls of his feet and out into his shadow. The shadow began to grow darker, and even began to move along the ground. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox!” and with that, the full force of the jutsu took place. He felt as the shadows began to rise a bit from the ground. As if he were a clay maker, he focused on shaping himself with the shadows that slowly began to rise above the ground. First he tried to start with the feet.

This took much concentration and he was beginning to sweat. “What did I tell you about straining, stop it” Black said as he watched Jai try and mold the shadow. He found it hard to manipulate his chakra at his will like this, and that is why he was struggling. He continued, forming the bottom of each foot of the shadow. Then Jai looked down for one second to look at himself and compare it, and that caused him to lose focus on the chakra he used and the jutsu ended. “What happened?!” Jai yelled aloud, he wasn’t sure of why it ended like that. “Dammit kid, do you even look at yourself in the mirror? You can’t look away from the shadow or you will lose concentration on it. A pro like me doesn’t need to focus on it as much, but at your stage it requires your full attention…..GOT IT!” Black yelled, quite impatiently from Jai’s perception. Jai placed his hands together again and began to focus a little harder this time, still not so much to the point where he couldn’t control the chakra. He closed his eyes and took in deep breaths before continuing with his handseals. When he was ready, he began them quickly, “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox-”

Jai felt the swift slap on the wrist from the clone. “Wait Jai, didn’t we already come to the conclusion that you have no idea of what you look like, how do you expect to clone yourself?” The clone said. Jai forgot about that, so he walked over to the slow moving river and looked into his reflection. He studied his facial features, pin pointing each standing out feature that shows on his face. Then he studied the rest of his body, getting a much better idea of how to create the jutsu, but a idea came over him. He placed his hands together and created the handseals for a normal clone to appear before him. The clone stood their with a smirk as did Jai him do, and he got back into his jutsu stance to begin the “My Shadow” technique. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox….” After six times of creating the handseals, he placed a large amount of the chakra into his feet and out into the shadow under him.

“Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox!” and then the jutsu began as his chakra began to mold into the shadow under his feet. The shadow then stretched out in front of him and between him and his own clone. He then focused on modeling the shadow’s feet, something he hadn’t been able to successfully do yet. Looking at his clone and the dark puddle before him, he began to mold the shadow. Black and his clone watched from a distance trying not to break his concentration. Then Jai began to shape the shadow, first the bottom of the shoes, a slow process that took time. Then he shaped the rim of the shoes and moved up to the toes. He focused on one leg as the other would mimic the first one, show he started the toes on the left foot. He studied the clone before him and designed the foot based on what he saw. He continued from the toes and up to the ankle, but once he reached the ankle he couldn’t hold it anymore.

“That is pretty hard to hold……how do you do it so quickly?” Jai asked out of breath as he let go of the clone before him also. “Kid I created this jutsu, if you thought it was going to be simple, then your out of luck.” The clone said as him and the real Black crossed their arms. “So how long can you stay out…its been over two hours?” Jai asked the clone. “He can stay out for a good while. Now focus on the jutsu at hand, you will gain control over the shadows soon enough.” Black said. Jai nodded and went back to meditation. It was nice to know that this guy wasn’t trying to kill him, at least right now. He planned to go home and help his home out, but he wanted to become stronger then before so that his trip wouldn’t be in vain. He focused on his breathing, breathing in, releasing out, it wasn’t so hard to get relaxed. Black watched him from a distance, trying to be patient though he really wished Jai would hurry up. Jai then placed his hands together and got ready to do it all over again. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox.”

After doing the handseals quickly five times, he focused his chakra back to his feet and out onto the ground under him. Total focus as he continued the handseals. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox!” and then his chakra took over the shadow. This time Jai went off his memory of how to create his feet, something he would have to learn without looking at himself. The chakra then turned the shadow into a puddle of dark goo that began to morph into the bottom of the clone’s feet. The feet slowly shaped each of Jai’s toes and then moved up to the ankles. He focuses a little harder as he created the bottom of the clones pants slowly and then up to the waste till he couldn’t hold it any longer. The shadow fell to the ground into a puddle and then moved back under Jai. “Slowly but surely…..” Jai said allowed. Black just nodded and waited. Jai took his vest off from the heat and placed his hands together.

As he took his vest off, the tattoo branded on his shoulder showed a coiled up scorpion tail. Black studied it from afar. “What is that a birthmark?” Black asked out of curiousty. Jai looked down under his shoulder blade and looked at the tattoo. He rubbed it and shook his head. “Family summon……passed down by my father…” Jai said, thinking of his father who had been gone so long. He then continued trying to do the jutsu again, placing his hands together and beginning the handseals. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox!” Then his chakra shot out from the bottom of his feet and into the shadow under him, stretching out into a dark puddle. Then Jai focused on the shaping the clone.

[shinzo-kori]

Beginning with the bottom of the feet, he then focused on molding the toes. He was a little better at the feet, but he needed to get a little further. He stretched the shadow up to the back of the clone’s legs and the pants around them. The pants slowly shaped over the legs and reached up to the waste of the clone, but ended. “Damn…..I’m getting there.” Jai said to himself. He did not waste time to create the handseals again, much quicker then last time. His chakra quickly shot into his feet and out into the shadow under him. The shadow stretched out into a dark puddle and began to shape the bottom of the feet. He then focused even harder till he reached to the ankles, and then the legs. It took a lot of focus, and soon stretched the shadow all the way to the waist. The rim of his pants began to shape and then the fish net shirt that he always wore under his vest. Jai watched with his eyes wide open as he was really stretching it that far, but then he lost focus and let go. The shadow quickly fell into a dark puddle in front of his feet, and then quickly went back under him.

“You saw it, I’m getting it!” Jai said pretty excited, but Black still had a stern look on his face. Jai saw his facial expression and then got back into his training. He sat down on the ground and began to meditate. He focused on his chakra for a long moment, trying to relax and regain his composure. Then he opened his eyes and stood up from where he was sitting. With his hands tightly together, he got ready to do the jutsu. “So, I learn this jutsu within a couple of days, and you promise to teach me a new one?” Jai asked Black. Black smirked, “Maybe kid, you need a lot of work before you can learn anything I can teach you.” Black said. Jai smirked and then began the handseals, “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox” and when he finished the fifth set of handseals, he pushed his chakra down into his feet and into the shadow under him. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox!”

Then the chakra shot out even more into the puddle and created a new entity. The puddle began to shape into the bottom of two shoes, and then began to shape the feet. Then the shadow stretched into two legs quickly shaping the pants. Then the shadow began to shape the rim of the pants and the fish next shirt Jai wore under his vest. Jai kept focus, not letting his attention be drawn to anything else but the shaping of the shadow. The shadow then stretched out and began to create the vest that Jai would wear. He kept focus, and Black and his clone stood watching. In the back of their minds, they were rooting for him to do it, but he didn’t want to show any type of emotion. Jai continued stretching the shadow out into the sleeves of the vest, but he couldn’t hold it much longer and was forced to let go of it. It was a large amount of progress, and he was learning pretty it real quick. “I’m gonna take a break….” Jai said as he walked back over to the lake and wiped his face with the water flowing by.

Jai lifted his head, and as if he had been oblivious of the world around him, he saw the clone was still there. This was a serious jutsu, he had never seen a clone that could last so long. He wanted to learn it so bad, that he hopped from his seat and got back into his stance to place his hands together for more handseals. He already focused a large amount of chakra into his feet and began the handseals. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox!” Each time he did the set, he felt the flow of chakra get stronger and move into the shadow under his feet creating a separate entity. The dark puddle split from his feet and began to shape the bottom of the clones shoes.

Then the shadow shaped the heel of his shoe and the rest of the bottom. Then the shadow shaped the toes of his feet and stretch up to his ankles. It then stretched up around to create the legs and then quickly up to the knees. The shadow then grew creating the pants cut off at the calf. The chakra the shaped the waste band of the pants and began to fish net shirt. It spiraled around forming the stomach and the chest. Once it reached to the shoulders, it stretched into a vest that had every pocket and detail of Jai’s own vest. He shaped the long collar and then after that, it stretched out from the shoulders out into arms. The arms stretched out and began to shape the hands. The hands quickly stretched out small fingers but then Jai had to let go once again. It took a lot of focus to do it, and he didn’t want to strain himself and end up tiring himself out. The almost fully shaped clone melted and fell into a puddle of black goo, and then moved back under Jai’s feet.

He closed his eyes and took in a large breath of air, trying to calm himself down. The heat was pretty bad, not as hot as the desert was but still hot. “When you fully shape the clone, we will see its durability.” The clone said, red eyes glowing into Jai’s. Jai nodded and spaced his legs apart and on the dirt. Then he placed his hands together and focused on the doing the jutsu again. He focused a large amount chakra into the soles of his feet and began the handseals. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox.” After half of the handseals were done, he felt the chakra in his feet slowly push into the shadow. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox!” and then a burst of chakra completely pushed into the puddle and became a separate entity.

Jai, using his chakra like a snake charmer, began to mold the puddle of dark goo into separate feet. He focused on the sole of the shoe, and then up to the bottom of the clone’s feet. Then the shadow stretched into separate toes, and then the clone’s ankles. Jai’s eyes began to twitch as the sweat from his forehead began to drip into his eye lash, almost a distraction. He kept his urge to wipe it from his eyes, and continued to mold the shadow. The shadow quickly molded into the legs and quickly stretched out into the clone’s pants. The waste ban of the pants stretched out into the clones stomach and chest, covering it in the fish net shirt Jai wears. Then the shadow shaped the vest and collar before shaping into Jai’s shoulders. The shoulders stretched out into long arms and then split into five separate fingers fro each hand. Then he focused on the neck and up to the bottom of the chin. Then the jaw shaped under the lips, and the quickly up to the nose and the bottom of the eyes. Would he be able to complete the clone successfully?

He focused on the features of the face, and then the side of the face to make the ears. Then he round the top of the head with a short crop of hair and then completed it around the back. He kept his hands tightly in the Ox handseal fearing that if he let go the clone would fall apart. “Good, now once the color comes in, you must quickly end the chakra sent to it or you will be drained.” Jai listened, intensely focusing on the coloring of the clone. It looked exactly like him, only thing was the color wasn’t quite there. After a few more seconds of focus, the color came in and the clothing and skin began to appear. Like a bucket of paint had been dumped on the clone, the color began from the head of and all the way down to the shoes. The clone had its eyes closed, as if asleep and that worried Jai. The clone had a much darker tone then him, but from what Black’s clone looked like, it was natural. “Is he supposed to be asleep?” Jai asked Black without turning his attention away from the clone. Even Black had a look of curiosity as he walked a little closer to the clone.

Jai walked up to the clone and looked into its face. “Hey?” Jai said hoping to wake the clone. They waited for a moment, and then both Black and his clone grew impatient. “It’s a dud, you did something wrong….” Black said as he turned around, but then the slight noise changed that. They all closed in on the clone and waited like a bird waiting for it’s egg to hatch. “……..BOO!” Jai’s clone yelled scaring the hell out of Jai, not really fazing the other two. Jai smiled, “What the hell is wrong with you hahaha” Jai laughed as he pushed the clone on the shoulder. Then a look of shock should in the clones deep red eyes as he began to melt away before them. “Dammit……” the clone’s final words before melting into a puddle before all three and goes back under Jai’s feet. “WHAT THE HELL?!” Jai yelled out loud, he was really sure he had it that time. Jai didn’t even wait to take a break and placed his hands together and began the handseals. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox.”

The rush of chakra from his waste into his feet was even more extreme, possible for the fact he was angry. Then the shadow began to push out before him almost in its own puddle. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox.” And then the chakra became on fire and shot into the shadow, causing it to push from under Jai and automatically began to mold into the soles of the clones feet. “Kid I told you not to strain it!” Black said out impatient anger. “Yea and look out my clone ended up, let me just do it.” Jai said putting his all into it. Black decided that the best way for Jai to learn would be for him to see on his own. Jai began with the shoes and feet, and then moved up to the ankles. He strained, making the shadow shape even faster then before, and after about a minute and a half, the shadow turned into the shape of the clone. Then the color began to cover over clones body bringing life to it.

Jai smiled as the clone opened his eyes and smiled back at Jai. Jai lifted his foot to walk to the clone when his body froze. The clone had the same look of worry as Jai closed his eyes and fell to the ground knocked out. The clone ran and caught Jai by his back, “What’s wrong with him?!” Jai’s clone said, red eyes peering into Black’s red eyes. “I told him not to strain it, now you’re here, but he is going to be knocked out for a little bit…..better start a fire.” Black’s clone said as he walked over and picked Jai up, throwing him over his shoulder. “Damn that kid….lets move location so no one has to die for trying to spy on us.” Black said as he head across the river to change location. “You think I’m gonna leave him with you…..think again!” Jai’s clone said to Black’s clone. “Did anyone say you can’t come you brat…..” Black’s clone said as he followed the real Black across the river. Jai’s clone sighed and followed, he wanted to make sure that Jai was safe from harm, especially since with out him, he wouldn’t even be there.

[shinzo-kori]

(Jenzo's post was after he let me off, I currently have three days to finish this thread or he will take over the NPC and kill me.....)

Jai woke up to the sound of fire crackling, and the smell of smoke. He lifted himself up and saw that both clones were gone, and it was just Black sitting there on guard. Jai lifted himself and rubbed his head, it was already night and he still wasn’t sure if the jutsu worked out. “Your idiot, I would have killed you for your stupidity, but I’m in a good mood…..” Black said as he stuck a stick into the fire to keep it burning. Jai lifted himself up to his feet and rubbed his head once again. “I’m sorry…..I was really trying to get the clone but it wasn’t working.” Jai placed his hands together and closed his eye, focusing on placing chakra into his feet before creating the needed handseals for the jutsu. “Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Dog, Goat Ox…” Jai said aloud as he repeated them each ten times over and over again till he felt the jutsu began. The chakra from his feet pushed out into his shadow and began to form a dark puddle of goop that would soon become the clone itself. Jai then watched as the clone began to shape from its feet and up.

The shadow began to stretch out into two separate legs, and then the waist of the clone. Jai kept his focus, trying not to get distracted. Black watched with his arms crossed, waiting on the soon to be clone of Jai. Jai began to strain and knew he had to calm down so he did. Jai continued as the shadow began to shape out into shoulders and outstretched arms. The shadow then began to form the fingers and the neck began to shape under the jaw. Then the jaw moved up into a chin and then into two lips. Then the rest just formed quickly, the eyes, ears, and nose. Then the clone was complete, only thing missing was the color in its clothing and pigment. Jai walked over to the clone and waited for it to react. The clone opened its eyes and looked into Jai’s. It’s eyes were red, and a large grin showed on it’s lips. “So are you the real deal?” Jai asked the clone. The clone nodded and spoke, “Yup.” The clone said answering Jai’s question. “Last time you summoned him, he only lasted for about two hours, he should be able to last half a day, that means you haven’t put much substance into it.”

“So what else is different about him from a normal clone?” Jai asked Black. “He knows almost all of your jutsu, and he won’t simply disappear by one hit like a normal clone would…..test him out.” Black said as he threw another stick into the fire. Jai turned back to the clone and got into a fighting stance. “Well I guess we have to see what you can do huh?” Jai asked him the clone. The clone laughed and got into the exact same fighting stance. They focused each with the same expressions as they charged for each other. Jai swung his right leg behind him into a round house kick to the clone’s face. Jai’s clone leaned to the left and let the leg swing over his back as he used that opportunity to drop to the ground and make a swiping kick to his left leg. Jai new this would happen, and hopped over the leg as it passed by, and then threw a punch directed for the clones face. The clone leaned back as the punch missed, and grabbed Jai’s wrist, and just as he was about to make an attack, the clone melted back into a dark puddle from under Jai.
