Isamu Training (solo training)

[Isamu Nishimura]

Surotto Etoku ƒXƒƒbƒg‚¦‚Æ‚­(Slot Understanding)
Rank: "C"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: Slot understanding is the understanding of Slots, the more slots a puppeteer knows the more puppets they can control. This means that if a puppeteer wishes to control a Large Puppet they must know Forty Slots. This means that if a user knows Eighty Slots they can control one Huge Puppet, or One Large Puppet with Two Medium Puppets, or Four Medium Puppets.
Special: Must be a Puppeteer.
Drawback: Must be learned multiple times in order for the person to use more then one puppet. The more puppets you know the smaller distance you have when using The Puppet Technique. A limit though is stopped by how many puppets can be controlled. A Normal Puppet master is only capable of controlling up to Ten Puppets at a time, this means one puppet per finger. The only way a user is capable of controlling more then ten puppets at a time by chakra strings is if they use the Hitokugutsu (Human Puppet) on them self.
Description: A puppeteer automatically knows twenty slots, this enables them to control One Medium sized Puppet or two small sized puppets. The more you go into Slot understanding the more you can control. Each time learned the user learns five more Slots. When the user reaches up to a hundred slots, the it gets harder for a user to use multiple objects and the training raises up to B Rank. When the user reaches up to three hundred slots, then the training goes up another rank of A Rank as the training becomes endless after that.
Limit: Must know Ningyoutsukai Seigyo Keii Chuui Kajuu (Puppeteer Mastery Light and Medium Weight) Along with this. Must be learned multiple times.

Finally! The time had come! He was free of the Academy! He and Minako had graduated and they had gone home for the day. Isamu smiled as he looked at his new puppet. It was him! His parents had surprised him with it when he had gotten home, instead of them answering the door, the puppet had. Isamu now looked at it with his eyes gleaming. it looked... difficult to control... he had never tried to control a puppet as advanced as this one... his parents had explained how it worked, however, Raikou understood that it acted like five puppets rather than just one. The hands and feet detatched and it was up to him to control them where he wanted them to go... and he couldn't forget about the main body of the puppet either. Raikou focused his chakra to his fingertips and five streams of chakra came from his finger tips. they latched into sections of the puppet's body and Raikou twitched a finger testing the control of the arm he had latched onto. it twitched along with the finger and stayed still.

Isamu smiled. He twitched all five fingers in rapid succession. The puppet moved both arms, legs, and its head along with the twitching of the fingers. Isamu laughed and twitched the fingers one after another. It looked as though the puppet was dancing in front of him. He put the puppet's feet on the ground and moved one finger and the puppet's leg moved backwards. Isamu frowned. He was trying to get the puppet to move as it had with his parents, however, it looked stilted. Isamu realized the joints weren't sliding as they had with his parents. Isamu moved his finger again and shakily the puppet's right leg moved forward towards him. Isamu then moved his other finger and the other foot moved shakily forward as well. Isamu laughed and moved the puppet closer and closer to himself until it stood right in front of him.

Then, by moving another of the fingers the head bowed backwards. Isamu moved the finger back and the head went back to its neutral position, he moved another of his fingers and a hand quickly came up and smaked Isamu's face. Isamu was hit back by the sudden movment of the puppet's arms. The puppet fell to the ground, the concentration to the puppet broken.

"Alright... so that's how you want to play is it?" Isamu asked the puppet. "Think it's funny to hit me and act innocent? well, you're going to be my puppet so you'd better start acting obediant or you'll end up as firewood!" Isamu threatened the puppet. It stared back at him. "Oh? What's with the tone?" Isamu asked. "Wh- you want to repeat that for me?" Isamu asked threateningly. The puppet stayed on the ground, unmoving, unblinking. "Alright wise guy, I'm going to make you move the way I want you to whether you like it or not!" Isamu said reconnecting the chakra strings to the puppet. The puppet stood up and Isamu moved the puppet forward... or so he thought, however it moved backward. Isamu frowned, not understanding it.

"Oh!" Isamu said. "Put the chakra strings in the wrong side." He released the puppet and it fell to the ground. Isamu sighed. "This is going to take a bit more work... isn't it?" He asked the puppet.

It just kept staring right back up at him...

Isamu walked up to the laying down puppet. He bent down and picked it up and moved to another portion of his room where they were. He sat on his bed and lay the heavy puppet next to him. Isamu looked at the puppet and shook his head. His first attempts at just moving it turned out to be wrong... he'd never tried to move a humanoid puppet before... he'd always played with small sized snake puppets, bird puppets with movable wings, nothing all that complex... but now he had to find a way to move this puppet... and if he couldn't move it easily like a person its look as a person would be for nothing... however, it would just be easier to connect a single chakra string to the back of the puppet and move it like a dummy or like the snake. Isamu sighed. Decisions were never easy... especially when they had to do with things like how to move a puppet... What did his parents say about the puppet? That the hands and feet detatched? So shouldn't he try to connect there? But hadn't they also said that his arms were poison gas launchers?

Isamu concentrated the chakra strings to attatch to the back of the puppets hands and feet and his middle finger attatched to the puppet's back. Isamu frowned. It seemed like he had hit something. In the back, it seemed that there were mechanisms that were meant to move the puppet's arms and legs via chakra. He had randomly come across the answer to his problem! All he needed to do was use these mechanisms to move his puppet around! Isamu smiled and mentally patted himself on the back. Now he could really move it easier! He released the chakra strings to the puppet's hands and feet. Isamu was faced with a whole world of possibilities on how to move the puppet! Isamu now had to figure out how these machanisms worked... he hadn't felt one of these before... and certainly not something so complex... Isamu tried to move the chakra string up to push on a lever however it wasn't strong enough for the puppet to move, it only sent a slight shiver down the puppet's right arm. maybe he had to control it through pushes and pulls of his finger? Isamu shrugged and gave a pull on the chakra string. The puppet was pulled back towards him after spinning around. Isamu jumped up off the bed as the puppet moved. He had done it! He had moved the puppet! However, it still didn't seem like a person moving...

Isamu moved back a little bit and pulled on the puppet again. The limbs of the puppet seemed to all be pushed in front of its body as it pulled back. maybe the levers in the puppet were all being pulled? So... what would happen if he pulled diagnally down left? Isamu did and the left leg was pulled backwards. Isamu then made a small circle going clockwise with his finger. The puppet's left arm came back next and the rest of the limbs followed. Now Isamu understood how it worked! the levers controled each of the puppet's limbs! The limbs would move the body! The puppet didn't need to always be touching the ground, he was able to suspend it a little bit in the air, however it was still pretty heavy for Isamu.

"Alright! I think I'm starting to understand you a little better! What've you got to say about that? I'm almost moving you like a real person! Pretty exciting huh?" Isamu asked. He blinked and frowned. "You don't think so? What is exciting to you then?" Isamu asked. Isamu laughed. "I bet you would!" Isamu laughed and walked over to the still puppet. "So... what do you think of mom and dad?" Isamu asked. The puppet turned its head. Isamu nodded. "Yeah, they leave often, however, I'm glad they gave you to me! Now we can be best friends!" Isamu smiled. "So how about it?"

The puppet raised a hand and hit Isamu again hitting him to the ground.

Isamu rubbed his jaw where the puppet had hit him. The puppet was laying on the ground again, staring at Isamu. It had been given a name already by his parents. Isamu didn't agree with the name, seemed right now that it should have been named 'disobediant' or 'difficult'. The way it was hitting him around seemed more like it was trying to kill him rather than allowing Isamu to control it. Isamu shook his head and gave a long sigh.

"Mikomi, huh? Not nearly as good a name as Isamu! You mean 'hope' as in, I hope you do well in the future, I hope that you don't fail the academy." Isamu laughed. "However, Isamu means bravery! Isamu means curage! I don't think you can beat THAT can you?" Isamu asked smugly. The puppet stared at him and Isamu paused for a responce longer than normal. "Well geez... you don't need to lecture me about the possibilities of your name... besides I just gave you those examples! Those don't really count since I just gave them to you!" Isamu sighed. "Really, can't you be a little more creative?"

Isamu extended his index finger and concentrated his chakra and streamed it out of his finger and inserted it into the puppet's back. Isamu frowned. It wasn't right... he hadn't inserted it in the right part of the puppet's back... Isamu couldn't feel the many gears and levers anymore... perhaps he had been luckey with that last one? Isamu detached the chakra string and got up off the ground. He walked over to the limp puppet and flipped it onto its back. He couldn't tell where he had inserted the string before... was it along the spine? or perhaps it was in the small of the back? Isamu placed his finger on the puppet's back and connected the string near the small of the back. He could start to feel the puppet, however, it wasn't the same... He moved the finger up more and repeated connecting the string. It was wrong again. Isamu repeated this and kept getting closer and closer to where he remembered the feeling. However, it started getting further and further away after he passed the shoulder blades of the puppet's anatamy. Isamu smiled. So... it was a bit lower than the shoulder blades. Isamu got up and got a perminant marker and drew a line on the puppet's back along the spots he could feel the connection to the puppet the best.

"Alright, so that's not a problem anymore!" Isamu smiled. "Now to practice a little more!" Isamu connected the chakra string along the black line and felt the familiar connection to the puppet that he had gotten during his second try with the puppet. How had he so easily connected with the puppet's anatamy that time? Perhaps it was because he had connected with all of the appropriate chakra entry points? Isamu laughed, unsure if he was even using real terms puppet masters used. maybe he was only kidding himself... perhaps he had just gotten luckey? Isamu doubted it, however, it was the most logical solution. He looked at the puppet that was staring at him.

"What are you looking at?" Isamu asked. He smiled and connected the other fingers to the hands and feet. So... THIS was how he was supposed to move the joints! Isamu lifted the puppet's hands and made the puppet look like he was shrugging. "Oh... don't play innocent with me again! You're good at that for a puppet who's only a couple minutes old." Isamu smiled. The Puppet shook its head and started walking away. "H-hey! Don't walk away from me!" Isamu commanded. "Hey! Get back here!" The puppet pushed the door open and walked out of the room. "Hey! Who gave you life? I did! So you should... are you even listening to me?" Isamu yelled chasing after the puppet.

"Sounds like they're getting along rather well!" Isamu's father laughed.

"Oh... but dear... I hope he doesn't get too attached to that puppet..." His (Isamu's) mother said worriedly.

"Don't worry! It's just his imagination, besides, he can use all the company he can get with us being out of the house so ofter." He said seriously.

"True enough... I just hope he gets to know his new teammates well..."

"Haven't you heard?" His dad smiled. "I heard that-"

Isamu ran outside, the puppet running slopply along beside him. It seemed that even with the training he had been doing he was still getting the directions of movment mixed up at times making a leg shoot back or an arm shoot forward in a jerking motion flinging the puppet forward in the air. Isamu stopped when they were in front of the house. People were walking along outside in the hot land, the domed architectures around him towered over Isamu and gave him the feeling of being a tiny ant in front of an ant mound. The puppet looked up at the tall structure.

"Yeah... that's the Kage's building. It's said that the kage... umm... I forget his name... but it's said that the kage's an Uchiha..." The puppet turned its head and looked at Isamu. "No... I don't think I want to be Kage... sounds like a lot of people depending on every move you make..." Isamu said timidly. "It's enough to have to try to control you... but having to try to control lots of other people? I don't think I could..." Isamu sighed. "It's best to leave Kage work to the Kage and genin work for the genin." Isamu blinked. The puppet nodded and walked forward a couple steps.

"hey! Isuma! Hi Minak-... oh! Isuma, who's this? A new friend of yours?" A voice asked. Isuma hid behind the puppet. This was Tundara-sensei, he was around his thirties and was a Jonin of the Hidden sand village. He was tall and had blonde hair and green eyes. "Well! If it isn't your first puppet! Congratulations! You taking him out for a test run?" Tundara asked. Isuma nodded and his puppet held out its hand. "Why hello there!" Tundara laughed. "You know Isamu, now that you're a genin, you're going to have to stop hiding behind others and take control... it's just the same as when you're with Minako, you keep hiding behind her, you need to become more like your name." The Jonin hoped to get an answer but was only answered with the stare of the two Isamus. Tundara sighed, "Well, have a nice day!" and he walked away.

The puppet took a few steps and looked at Isamu like he was confused. "I... just get a little intimidated sometimes... nothing too bad..." Isamu explained. They just stood there for a moment, one not talking to the other. "W-well... Speaking of which... I need to get used to your fighting styles before we get on a mission or you might break... and you breaking wouldn't be all that good!" Isamu said with a new vigor to his voice. "So... are you ready?" The puppet nodded and gave the thumbs up sign. Isamu laughed. "Aren't you energetic? You're going to need to try to help me ok?" Isamu asked.

The puppet only stared at Isamu.
