Understanding Between Teacher and Student

[shinzo-kori]

I had made a good distance from the Mizukage tower, and the entire time I was thinking of my approach. I remember my Sensei fighting me to test how strong I was, but would that be my approach to this boy. I was unsure, but I would soon find out. I waited upon the open path between the village and the Mizukage Tower waiting. My two blades, Katana and Wakazashi now strapped back on my left hip, the same toothpick within my mouth, and my Mist Headband shining upon my neck. I crossed my arms as the white thermal I wore warmed my arms, not to mention the black short sleeve button up I wore over it. My right sleeve was carefully rolled up to reveal my Raven Tattoo for I was one of the Tsuinken[Twin Blade] fighters, and though I had not excelled to the rank I desired, I had the Tattoo placed upon me so I would know my path soon to come with more training. My black shorts would seem odd in a place like this, for the weather was always cold, but I truly didn't care about that. They were loose, almost as if they would fall off for they were only tied by the last hole of my belt. It didn't matter, for it had never been a problem for me in battle. My black shoes stood still in the dirt road, however I did not wear a bandage upon my right leg as I usually do, for I only wear it because I strain my right leg more then my left.

A sand ninja, and I was to be his teacher. I felt as if I were corrupting everything his teacher may have stood for, but then again it didn't matter since his teacher wished him dead. I felt for him, for I did not know what it was like to run from my home for fear of losing my life. It would be great to teach him till he became strong enough to return to his home and fight his past. Maybe this teaching would be a great experience for me as well, for I would be forced to better myself everyday, just to teach him about discipline, something I had been lacking these past few months. I would feel the wooden splinter break within my mouth, and so I would spit it out and gaze upon the horizon ahead of me, the Mizukage tower barely visible within the mists from this distance. I thought about this intro with great detail, and then I knew my approach in introducing my new Genin into my teaching style. My hands would slip from my forearms tight embrace before meeting with each other to form the proper seals for my next move. I would smirk and take deep breath as my form quickly vanished into a veil of mist, now hidden within the trees where I would await my new student. Within that veil of mist, my hallow husk would still be seen, waiting with its arms crossed and a stern look upon my face. Its body would seem to be one with the mists as the dense water began to float among the path that would lead Senith to the village.

Lesson one, finding truth where no truth lie.

[Rikuto !]

Senith would walk down the path following Tatsu's footprints. He had come along way from the Mizukage tower. As he walked he thought to himself about this situation, He was unbilvable grateful to be a mist nin and to have a new teacher, yet he was slightly nervous due to his old teacher. He wondered what sorta of teaching methods would be used and if he was eligable to be doing some mission for the mist. He wondered if he'd be able to go on B rank's or higher with Tatsu. That's when it occured to Senith, this isn't the sand, back in the Sand Senith's missions involved assassination, that what he was good at, would he still be able to do that here? he decided he'd ask Tatsu about it later. Senith paused for a second as he noticed the footprints ahead slowly get lighter until they suddenly vanished, above that spot was just the normal veil of mist that was common throughout the village. One thing Senith had learned whilst faking his own death on the run from the Sand was that if foot-prints of someone dangerous suddenly dissapear into a ball of mist, don't go into the mist.

Sentih would slowly move his hand up to his face, as and rub his cheek bones as if he was tired, on the way he would knock a Kunai off his belt with his elbow on purpose, the kunai would roll down the hill. Senith would glance back in mock-surprise and Follow it down until he could no longer see the mist and was hidden behind the hill. He would quickly open his Goud and his use Iron Sand Manipulation To draw half of the Sand inside, into his Polarity Feild. He would then use various hand signs whilst channeling his Enourmus chakra to perform "Karada Kousatetsu"(Iron sand Body Armor) which formed and Invilisible layer of BodyArmour over Senith. At this point there was still alot of the Inbvisible IronSand in His polarity feild which he could use if needed. Senith replanced the Lid on His groud. He then used Bunshin no Jutsu (Clone Skill) and created an Exact Clone. He sent the Clone walking towards the Mist, just to see what would happen, Luckily enough the sun was blocked out by the mist so the lack of a shadow wouldn't be a give-away. As the clone approached the Mist Senith used Kawarimi no Jutsu (Body Switch Skill) with a log that was hidden in the forest to the side of the Mysterious Mist so he could watch. As senith watched he thought he could see a shape in the mist but he wasn't sure. He knelt down completly out of sight and watched his clone approach the mist.

Karada Kousatetsu"(Iron sand Body Armor)
Rank: C-rank
Skill: Ninjutsu, defensive
Effect: Allows the user to create a suite of armor from iron sand
Special: Hold Dragon while Iron sand forms around user
Drawback: Cuts polarity field in half. Reduced movement.
Description: By allowing the iron sand to cover there body, the user can transform the iron powder into a suite of armor. The Iron powder will begin to surround the user, with some parts solidifying,while others remaining in a powdered form. The solidifying Iron sand acts like strong plates of Iron (think like scales), while the none solidified portions still allows for movement. The users, from head to toe is covered in this plated armor (with eyes, ears, etc exposed for senses), armor is extremely durable, and can withstand "3C-ranks" jutsus before being destroyed. This does consume much more chakra to maintain, as well as it does effect the polarity field of the user (meaning that the field emitted will be having a much more difficult time extending outward)
Limit:Masamune , Kekkai Genkai. C-rank in Polarity field, Iron sand Transmutation and Iron sand Domination

Bunshin no Jutsu (Clone Skill)
Type: GenJutsu
Rank: E-rank
This is a basic technique known to most Genin. Bunshin no Jutsu creates a clone of the user, which can be used as a means to create a diversion, distraction, or cause confusion. Like Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Art of the Shadow Doppelganger), these clones will simply disappear if come into contact, but unlike Kage Bunshin, they are substanceless, and thus cannot do any damage. Bunshin no Jutsus have no Shadows what so ever

Kawarimi no Jutsu (Body Switch Skill)
Rank: E-rank, Supplementary
A technique that usually confuses the attacker. The user quickly projects themselves with another nearby object such as a plant (normally a section of a large log), an animal, or even another person within reach, leaving the opponent open to a counter-attack. In the anime, a scarecrow, a boulder, and even mud has been used as a body substitute, though this may not be considered canonical by few fans. A fairly common Jutsu, it is one of the basic Jutsu that a Ninja must learn before graduating to the Genin level. This technique, however, is not strictly limited to the Naruto series, as it is sometimes referred to as Utsusemi no Jutsu (Art of Body Projection) in other manga and animation series. A User can NOT switch with an enemy or a person due to the fact that everything is attempted base. You must attempt to grab the person first to switch him with you, before the technique can occur

[shinzo-kori]

[maybe I can't be to subtle with you, I made a clone that is now standing where I left off, but its ok, I will just continue on. Understand this is the way I write, only to avoid people whom choose to be know it alls and meta-game, but of course you wont do such a thing. However, I did understand what you were saying in your post, so I'm glad your literate ^_^. I also created a loop hole for my final move, thus giving you the opportunity pass test two since you already set yourself up to pass for it, so please read my words carefully.]

My eyes were and are keen as always, and I watched the boy enter the path I set out for him. I could see it in his eyes, for he was focused upon my footsteps and would seem surprised to find that any trace of me had vanished. He would continue down the hill, I would stock him from within the woods so that my view of him would not vanish, and then his feet would halt at the thick mists ahead of him. So he knew it would be unwise to enter, for an attack could spring up at any moment and no one would ever know. However, he seemed to be the paranoid type, for his hands would form handseals, few to be exact. I focused upon them, however the first Dragon handseal was unknown to me, for I knew no technique that required only the Dragon, but the others were quite simple. I wondered where this object he wished to transfer himself with was, but that wouldn't matter, for he would make his entrance soon. Anyways, the boy would also make a clone, one that would enter the mists where my clone found himself. Yes, it would be Genjutsu Technique versus Genjutsu technique, but I would remain victorious in this battle. I however had plans for the real Senith, but I would first have to draw him out some way. I would throw a kunai, only the real Senith would be able to follow its path and find me hidden within the trees, so I had to be creative.

'Rat, Boar, Dog, Ox, Tiger'

My handseals would be as silent as my thinking, and soon my chakra would be focused into the two trees that surrounded the now replaced Senith as his clone entered the mist to meet my clone. My chakra would rip the bark off the two trees quickly stretching it out into long strands of white bandages; stronger then the steel of a kunai blade. I would remain where I was, hidden within the woods as from both sides of the road, the bandages would stretch out from the top of the tree down to the earth below aimed for the boy's ankles. They would rap tightly enough to cause the connection between Senith and his replacement to switch, and then my bandages would slowly coil around the log left in his place. During this time, my clone would continue through the mist to meet the boy's clone with a smirk and his arms still crossed. He would speak, but his words would be full of folly and lies, for he himself was only a fake.

"So, I'm your teacher now. Sadly, you have failed both ends of my first test, for what you see before you is Merely an Illusion"

Before anything could truly happen to change this fact, he would vanish within the mists and the clone would be left to try and figure out just what it was the Mist Clone was talking about. Soon after, the mists would fade and Senith's clone would be revealed to the eyes of the world unless it chose to vanish as well. However, it would be Senith's clone and a log in the middle of the road. Now, with all of this in play, the true Senith, though hidden within the trees upon the side of my Mist, would know that I was just messing with his mind, and soon it would continue. My left hand would lift from my side as I formed the one handed Ram handseal, and following that, another illusion would grow from my hand. An illusion of a kunai would be drawn from my left hand and then fired in front of the clone that stood where the mist vanished. As this was happening, one of my many kunai would be tied to about twenty feet of thin ninja wire attached to the loop of my belt, would be thrown directly in front of me ten inches off the ground now attached to a tree on the opposite side of the road. The lighting[as you said] was so dim, that a shadow would not show, thus making it quite hard to see. I would then slip a real kunai quickly from my right pocket and cut the wire off my pants so that I could tie the other end upon a nearby tree near me tightly. Now you may ask, what was the fake kunai that I threw at the clone for? It is simple, for it would be the closest and most distant distraction from what it was I was truly doing behind the scenes. Anyways, I would walk on the opposite side of the wire from the woods, and I would look across it at the clone ahead of me with a smirk upon my face. I would then speak, but I would not allow my words to halt me from focusing fully upon the area around me. "First test failed, time for the second test."

Lesson two, do not allow yourself to fall for the unknown, for all around you should be understood

[Rikuto !]

[Ohk, sorry my bad. I didn't realise it was a Mist Clone]

Senith watched from his hiding place, facinated by the display. He listened to the words of the mist clone, though he had to strain to hear them. Adter the clone vanished he saw a kunai fly from the trees and hit another tree near the clone, almost at Senith's full height, Senith quickly traced back the path of the Kunai to a few possible hiding places of Tatsu, or atleast, he hoped it was tatsu. The clone would stand perfect still and continue to watch whilst senith would do the same, hidden in the trees. After a second he saw Tatsu walk out from the woods with confidence and speak to Senith's clone. As they talked Senith became aware that Tatsu wasn't focusing on his words or the clone, meaning he knew it was a fake, or he was just constantly aware of his sorrounding. Either way, not good.

Senith was about to move out into the open when suddenly he stopped, what the hell was he doing, only a complete fool would walk out into the open like tatsu did unless he had some form of plan. Senith couldn't belive what he almost did. He thought to himself for a second. Senith lowered his hands down under his tunic, incase he was being watched. He made various hand signs and used Kawarimi no Jutsu (Body Switch Skill) and silently switched with a log on the other side of the path, hidden in the forest. He then used Iron Sand Transmutation to create thousand of miniture blades, less than a mm long and thick but sharper then a scalpel. In this light, they were impossible to see. Senith would use his polarity feild to manipulate the invisble knives in the area around tatsu, careful not to get close enough for him to notice them. After half a second he felt it, one of the blades had Silently sliced a wire, senith looked to were it had happen, he panned his vision and saw a kunai in a tree. He thought to himself quietly, What was that all about. Senith didn't know what was going on so he put the minitrue blades (Hundreds) completly around tatsu's body silently, just incase.

Senith then spoke through the clone, not giving away his possition. "Hm, what was the purpose of the wire?"

[shinzo-kori]

I would smirk at the boy's words, for he did find the wire I had placed, and that soon became a wasted effort to have the boy trip over it, meaning that he passed another test as well. "I'm happy to say you passed my second test. I figured someone with your ability, the Iron Blood, would be able to sense a thin wire." I thought about while I said this, for how could it be possible for him to cut my wire, unless he knew just exactly where I was. Well, he must have walked over and cut it at one of the ends of the wire. No, that was impossible for I would notice and hear him approaching my vicinity, and then I knew something much deeper was up, yet I knew not of its purpose. The clone still remained where it was, and I was beginning to assume my student felt that he had my attention drawn away from the truth, but he would be wrong if he thought that. Well, I would be fully prepared, for I had an earthly defense that required no handseals, thus making my actions unknown to my opponent.

The earths from below would quickly crawl up from my feet up to the top of my head in a coat of strong earth yet it was only like a coat of fresh paint upon my skin. No one would know the difference, for even the color of the earth was the same as my own, yet now my movements would be a bit slower; I would not need to move too fast. This indeed was the Shield of Earth Technique, the coating so thick that it could protect me against the cold steel of a blade at my level. Either way, now I would slowly lower myself to my knees with my hands upon my thighs, and I would begin to focus upon the area around me, trying to figure out just where this boy truly was. I however paid no attention to the false image that attempted to trick me into thinking he was the true Senith. I would continue the show as my hands meet with each other and began to create five handseals.

'Dog, Boar, Ox, Dragon, Ram'

I would think of these handseals as my hands quickly finished them though my form was still covered in the earth that surrounded me. "What if I were to tell you....I did not need to see you in order to attack you?" After my words, my hands would fall to the ground pushing chakra into the very earth that surrounded us all. The range for my next move was wide, wide enough to touch anything within 140 feet of my position. The chakra would spread out in a seek and destroy mentality, finding Senith and shooting into his brain in order to disturb his sense of sight. This technique was named the Blinding Deafening Technique. Yes, he would go blind, and he would not know exactly what was going on, but this would be my next lesson for him. It was my final one for him, and then I would leave him to reflect upon it.

Lesson three, learn to see without your eyes

[Rikuto !]

THe clones eyes narrowed as Tatsu bent to the ground. Senith watched him, he formed seals that senith had never seen before but he was heading to the floor. Senith would quickly harness some of the Iron sand remaining in his gourd with Iron Sand Manipulation and form it into a small disk with a diameter of 30cm. He then used his Polarity Felid to hover the disk 3 inces above the floor, he then slowly,silently moved onto the hovering disk so he was no longer touching the ground. He then harness the last of the reaming sand in the groud and drew it all into his polarity felid which he extended to his maximum (**).

He then spoke through his clone, "You pay no attention to me, Tatsu" (He figured he'd be brave and try his first name) "Meaning you obviously know im a clone and by the way uv been distracted i assume you have known for ahwile. And due to that i would say that you ahve found someway to defend yourself, that i am not sure of but id assume no less from you seeming at the rate you moved. I have noted one thing, you are moving slowly, this i must say is odd."

At this point Senith would move one of the thousnads of iron knives stabbing into Tatsus's face, revealing the a crack in the armour, revealing the technique. Senith spoke with the clone again "Well now Tatsu, what have we here?" He said with a sly smile. "I would advise you not to move, maybe they can withstand a few stabs, but could it withstand a full explosion?"

[shinzo-kori]

[next time try and give an excuse for what you do, because you put yourself in a compromised situation when you stated handseals you never saw, and you don't have chakra seeing eyes, so you wouldn't really know what I was doing, but its cool I wont trip ^_^]

I had my hands upon the ground, yet I felt no connection with my chakra and his body, so I knew that my attempt was a failure. The only true way he would know what I was doing would to have known the jutsu from past experience or to be able to see chakra. I doubted any of these things were possible, but it happened so I would continue on with plan B. He continued to speak to me through the clone, and I was glad he realized that the clones words meant nothing to me. I did not know where my student was, and that was a true fact, but when your built like a magnet, your not that hard to find. I would find him quite easily, and then this would all be over. Understand that he had passed two of my three tests, however, he would not fully understand the third test, meaning he would be lost if his eyesight were taken from him, but maybe another day he would learn.

Now it was time to show him the true meaning of the last test, the ability to fight one without knowing or seeing them. My hands remained together, and so I would begin three simple handseals for my next and final move, but just as I began the first one, things would seem to take a drastic turn. The clone would finish his words, but something else would happen that was quite unexpected. I would feel a slight impact upon my face, almost as if a needle had pierced the surface of my earthly flesh. I felt the earth begin to flake off my face, only a little bit however, and then the clone would continue to speak. I ignored him and finished the three simple handseals before placing both hands on the ground. Before anything could truly be done to stop me, I would be enveloped by five iron chains which would quickly spiral around my form hiding me from the eyes of my foe.

The strength of these chains would be able to withstand the strength of this so called "explosion" for they would quickly begin to over lap each other, and I still had my earth shield there to take the impact for me. The chains had no limit in there length, for they continued to stretch on and on till the reaction I was hoping for would happen. My hands remained upon the ground, the same place my chains came from, and they were iron based, so they reacted like a magnet to the source. Yes, they would seek out my student with great speed, and they would not fail in grabbing him and pinning him down. They were controlled by my mind, and when I felt the slightest pull of this magnetic field and my chains, I let them continue on to what they found so attractive. I would remain cocooned within my chains as they continued to grow and grow from the ground like weeds. This was called the Demon's Necklace Technique.

Know your weakness, or forever be a failure

[Rikuto !]

[Sorry Mate, still new at this.]

Senith would watch on as his Master had chains slowly spial around him. Senith sat for a milisecond before he felt it, a slight tug at his magnetic feild, one thought ran through Senith's mind, "Shit". Instantly Senith would use his Iron Sand Stransmutation to transmute all of the small iron dagger's around tatsu into an iron box as high as tatsu and 30cm thick that would enclose his entire body. Senith new this would not be perfect but it would by him some time. He then drew his magnetic feild in as close to his body as he possible could (around a mm from his skin), causing the Iron Sand in the air to hover around a mm above his skin, adding an extra layer of body armour.

Senith would then transmute the iron box around Tatsu to seep through the gaps in the chains until they reached his skin, imperticular, the spot were the earth armour was destroyed.

[shinzo-kori]

[No problem, and if your new, you sure in hell fooled me ^_^...I see good things in your skills, I was gonna say lol, that one technique you used is close to a A rank Masamune technique, the Iron maiden lol]

I would continue to place focus within my chains, and it would not bother me as to what my opponent was doing. My chains drastically began to pull towards the magnet, Senith. I smirked as I closed my eyes and began to focus upon that thought. Soon, my chains would be drawn to him, having my student in there sights, and I would only smirk at this. At the same time however, my opponent would begin surround my chains with his sand, thus meaning that his polarity field was still within my vicinity, meaning that my chains would not lose contact with Senith, for with this, it were as if I did not need to see my opponent. The holes that I once saw through with the chains would quickly be blocked by the sand that would gather larger and larger around my chains till there was no light. I heard them rustling around me, but I would not allow this to distract my concentration.

The technique I was using required me to hold my hands upon the ground, so what if I were to go underground. Well, we would surely find out, as my form would melt into the surface of the earth with Double Suicide Decapitation Technique. Now, I was below the earth with my hands within the earth and the same chains from above around my form. They would continue to stretch out, and now they would be on Senith's tail, their speed pretty fast making it quite hard for one of his size I would assume. I would wait till I felt the chains grab him, and then I would reel him in like a fish. If my opponent would try and draw back the magnetism that caused my chains to chase after him, he would only be forced to drop the sands that threatened me. I saw no flaws in my plans, and though he passed two of my three tests, I felt that this was the end of our training session for the day.

Training session coming to a close, but let not my words of wisdom be silenced.

[Rikuto !]

[Thanks Mate xD. Lol yeah its similar, but its a sort of Jutsu i devolped xD You set the situation perfectly for it.]

As the chains grew dangerously closer, senith saw that his master was beggining to fall underground, he had to do this now. He sent out his polarity felid to a maximum in one final burst. At this point the sand would ahve reached the bare skin next to his eye. The sand there would then transmute into a solid round plate that was held inplace on Tatsu's bare face by the chains. This plate also had a small spike which was aimed into the bare skin on such an angel that it would shut up through the bare flesh, through tatsu's eye socket and into his brain, killing him instantly.

The cahins were almost upon senith, he took comfort in the fact he had two lifelines left if the happened to reach him. He would then yell out so his master could hear him. "Master, this is over. There is a small spike on ur bare skin attached to a plate. If i detonate the plate which i can easily do it well send that spike through your eye into your brain, killing you. This Is Over."
He would then wait for his mater's respone, hoping he would stop the struggle due to the fact this had put an enourmus strain on Senith's Chakra

[Rikuto !]

[ Ohk, well. The plates on your face because i had alredy sent the sand there and all i had to do was Transmute it which being a Masamune i can do. I know your going underground because i can feel the sand slipping from my polarity feild. Sorry i didn't state, i forget that not everyone thinks from a Massamunes advantages.]

[Rikuto !]

[Alright, yeah i should have re-aimed. And well yeah i wasn't really attempting to doge the chains as you said, there to fast for my guys size so instead i just put on two layers of sand which i could use to hold the chains for a second or two. And by plate, i dont mean a plate that covers your entire face, i mean one that covers the small protion of skin that isn't protected by earth, but your right, you went underground so it was voided. My Mistake, Sorry Mate. Were do we take it from?]

[Rikuto !]

[Lol, alright yeah. Haha yeah i generaly wouldn't post exactly what im doing, how im doing and make it clear how to avoid it xP. As you say, just trying to finish this info and get into the training so im going to do that, Lol sorry, but its just an easy way to get into the real stuff]

[Void my Last Rp Post]

Senith would crouch down, usure of waht to do next. He would focus on Tatsu and prepear for whatever assult he could finaly muster. As he focus on tatsu, unbeknown to Senith, the chains hand come under his feet. The chains suddenly lunged up and wrapped around Senith.

[Lol Rp wise i a Genin wouldn't be able to put up this much a fight to a Jounin/ANBU anyway xP. Btw, i got my summon approved yesterday xD, Names Jak btw.]

[shinzo-kori]

[Its cool man, I understand that the post is gonna be short and everything. Of course there is always possibility of you beating me at my level, so don't let those thoughts go to your head, you just have to do it the legal way and stuff. Anyways, I shall post, and when we are equally done with some good training, we will meet up with each other and all that, just pm me because I'm about to make my last post and exit right now. I also erased all of my other OOC posts so its less messy ^_^]

I would feel the tug of my chains as they grabbed hold of my student's ankles. They would not stop there, but rap around up all around his body like a coiling snake with the motive of killing, but of course this was not the case. Most likely I would feel it safe to return to the surface with the fact that I had my opponent strapped with my chains. I would slowly emerge from below the earth to the surface with my hands still upon the ground. Only four of my chains would rap around the boy's body, and they would drag him in towards me. If it wasn't a struggle and the boy did not break from the chains that did not stop at the ankles, I would say one final statement as the chains would bring him about five feet in front of me.

"You did good Senith. You understand some what of the things I am trying to help you understand here. We will meet here again tomorrow for real training, and we will continue from where we left off. Just know this, do not rely fully upon your abilities as one of the Masamune, but use that power in times when you have no other choice left. If you don't do so, and you find that someone else has the ability to take advantage of your powers, you will be useless and killed instantly in the life of a Shinobi. I hope you understand this."

I smirked as I closed my statement, and then my hands quickly lifted from the ground with my form following. The chains would immediately disappear into a sliver vapor of smoke releasing Senith from my grip. I hoped that this was all soaking in, and so I would quickly dust myself off before lying my left hand upon my blades that lie are attached to my hip. I would then walk past him quickly patting his gigantic shoulder with my other hand as I walked on down the road. I only hoped that he would feel a little less worried about the possibility of me trying to kill him like his old sensei, and that I could be a much greater influence. In close, I would vanish into a veil of mist across the horizon from his eyes to be seen once again tomorrow.

Defeat is a victory in itself, for one will truly learn from their mistakes.

[Exits]

[Rikuto !]

Senith listened to his master's words and nodded as he soaked in every word, Tatsu was diffrent to his previous master. Senith still wasn't completly sure, but he felt a connection to Tatsu, he trusted him, to an extent. Senith felt the chains drop from his body and felt his master's hand on his shoulder. "Thankyou, Sensei." He said simply, wanting to say more but unwilling to hold up his master. As his master walked past, senith slipped a note with directions to his hidden home, into Tatsus pocket. He turned and watched his master dissaper in a veil of mist. "Kewl exit" Senith muttered to himself before walking off into the mist.

[Exit]
