It was a warm day in the land of Sea, and Seika was happy that first round of the chuunins had been finished. Now was the worst part, waiting for the results. The suspense had been killing him on the inside ever since he finished the questions. He just needed some nice fresh air, and maybe some training to help him along the way in the exams. He made sure he brought his book-bag along with a scroll of a jutsu he had been dieing to learn. Finally was his perfect chance to learn it, and who knows maybe one of his teammates will come help him train. Only time would tell the answer to that question, ut for now he had no time to waste.

He strolled through the dancing grass, and after a couple more steps he reached a beach. Before stepping onto the sand he kicked off his shoes and socks. He stepped on the beach allowing the warm soft sand fill the spaces in between his toes. He stared out at the blue sea, and in the distance he could see another island. He truly loved this place, and if it wasn’t for his duties to cloud he would live here in peace. After viewing the jaw dropping scenery he decided this was a perfect place to train. He let his book-bag slid off his shoulders and he unzipped it pulling out the scroll.

He glared at the scroll for a good minuet before he placed it back in the bag. ”Alright let me give this a go!” He said as he leaped in the air three times trying to get the blood pumping in his veins. He quickly started a row of handseals, and begun to utilize the lightning chakra within him through out his body. He was to make an exact replica of himself with lightning. This was going to be extremely hard. Even after he finished the handseals he continued to spread his chakra through out his entire body.

An hour went by, and Seika still showed no sign of improvement. Training this was becoming very aggravating, but he still pushed himself harder. His mind was clouded, and he needed to relax maybe then he could get some where with this training, He took off his shirt as he sat down crossed legged, and placed his hands in his lap. The sound of the sea soothed him. He emptied his mind of stress, worry, and suspense. Once all that nonsense was out of his mind he started to give his mind into the element of lighting. He tried to fully understand how this jutsu would work, and how the lightning would take the shape of his body, and create it into a moving attacking clone.

He stood up after another hour had passed with full confidence in him. He was glad he got an early start on this training or else he would never master it in time for the next exam. He smirked in a cocky way as he started the row of handseals once more. Again he would send the surge of his lightning chakra through out his body trying to get a complete outline since the clone would be made of pure chakra. He could feel the surge rush through his body, and it got his adrenaline pumping. He could feel the electrical power coming off of him, and he was very grateful that no metal objects where around or else he could be in trouble. ”Here we go!” He told himself as he started the row of handseals for a second time. He released all of his chakra out of his body, and a bright flash would take place for a quick second. Electrical particles would float around next to Seika before the came together and started to form a perfect outline of Seika.

A huge smile started to take place on Seika’s face as he saw the outline of himself start to form, but it quickly vanished, and he had failed. However he wasn’t upset since it was his first attempt, and it was only going to be followed by plenty more. He kicked at the sand causing a little to move over to a new place on the beach. He tried to think of what went wrong, and how could he perfect it in his next attempt. He started to think maybe he didn’t have enough of an electrical surge come through his body. He knew exactly how to fix that problem! This still brought a smile to his face knowing he could get the jutsu down perfectly with juts a couple of more tries. He was kind of hoping in a little bit one of his teammates would come along, and help him train in a spar type way.

Oh well he didn’t really mind training alone since he done it a lot before. All he knew was he needed to get stronger before the next round, and that’s exactly what he planned to do! He quickly started another row of handseals, and allowed his chakra to run wildly through out his body. Once he finished the handseals he pushed his chakra out of his body once more, and the same flash took place. Only this time the legs of the clone started to form clearly, and looked really human like, with a few exceptions of being able to see through them. Oh well progress was showing and that’s all he cared about. He was a little tired from all the chakra he put out, and his stomach growled with hunger. It was time to maybe catch some fish, and cook them for a nice breakfast.

[Ryu]

*second post*

He caught a couple of fish, and ate a decent breakfast. As soon as he finished he walked over to the sea and dipped his hands under the water to clean them off. Then he slapped at the air violently to quicken the drying process. After all, he couldn’t do a lightning jutsu with wet hands one could only imagine how that would turn out. Once his hands where clean and dry e scooped up some sand with his right hand, and rubbed it against both hands then tossed it in the air. This made his hands smoother, and easier to perform handseals. ”Well, here I go for the second attempt.” he said as he spread his feet shoulder width apart, and brought his hands up chest level. He closed his eyes and tried to picture the lightning element in the center of his stomach to maybe get a better idea of what was all going on. After he closed his eyes he started the row of handseals needed, and he could feel the rush of electricity surge through his body.

If this is what true power felt like, he liked it! He was having his lightning chakra flood his insides so it could get a nice outline of his body. He was really unsure if this was helping the whole process, but he felt it was necessary, so he didn’t mind it to much. He held the last hand sign in the handseals as he tried to reach out and gather a lightning source from other things. Luckily not to long ago a nearby tree had been struck by lightning, and some of that energy left behind was still strong. Seika was doing the best he could to draw chakra from that source, but he wasn’t doing to well at it. None the less he continued to try, and it was gradually working. After five minuets he performed the handseals once more. Only this time he didn’t hold the last one, instead he attempted the jutsu again. He forced all of his chakra out of his body next to him, and a flash formed for a quick second or two. The flash wasn’t bright enough to blind anyone, actually it was barely noticeable. Within a second Seika’s legs formed, and this time you couldn’t see through them at all! It was very human like this time around. The only problem was he only created the legs.

He clinched his right fist as tight as he could as he kicked at the sand again. This jutsu was proving to be a real pain, but he continued on refusing defeat. After all how could he ever be a good ninja if he did accept defeat? He was breathing heavily so he took a seat on the sand of the beach, and just peered out at the sea. After two minuets he started to meditate once more. Hoping it would help gain energy back. He could feel his muscles were very tension, and he also wished to change that. He meditated for a good twenty minuets before getting back up to start his training once more.

Most of his energy had come back to him, and he was less tired by at least ten fold. He leaped off the ground twice trying to get the blood pumping through out his body. He closed his eyes and once more started to fill his body up with his lightning chakra. Another surge of power rushed through him. He really was never aware he had so much chakra until this very training started to take place. He knew there was no chance of him creating a full clone of him just yet, but he had already set a goal in his mind which was to create the whole bottom half, and he needed more chakra to do so! He continued to gather chakra and he even continued to try and get some extra boost from the lightning struck tree. Rather it was working or not, it made his body feel more calm and stronger. Rather he was going to achieve his goal just yet, he was about to attempt the jutsu once more.

He quickly performed the handseals in about a blink of an eye, and sent his chakra out of his body right next to him. He closed his eyes as he did so, and was trying to gather a little bit more as he pushed out, but he had a feeling he was failing at that. Besides him his legs where created perfectly, and the rest of his lower half had appeared, only they were kind of see through. So he still had lots of training to go before he even just finished perfecting his lower half of the clone. Sweat was already dripping down his face as the sun stared down upon him. ”Giving up is not an option!” He told himself as he hit his fist across his chest.

He crashed down in the sand, and just laid back staring up at the sky. He needed another break from training. Maybe a little nap couldn’t hurt. Hopefully by the time he would awake his teammates would be here to help him train. After all everybody needs help now and then, and right now was one of those times. As he lay down he performed the handseals trying to memorize them. Even though he already knew them he felt he didn’t know them well enough to perform them perfectly in a real situation. So he performed them ten times, before he allowed his eyes to closes, and his mind to drift off somewhere in dream land.

(Sorry, short. )

I could see Seika in the distance, laying on the sand. "Hey Seika! *Arf!*" I'd run toward my teammate at full speed with Kaito right behind me. It seemed like he was asleep. "Seika! *Arf!* We're teammate's right? We haven't done anything as a team yet have we?" I smiled brightly, it was a really nice day out and I was ready to train a bit before the second part of the exams.

[Ryu]

OOC: It's kool just glade you can make it!

Seika could hear a voice calling to him, and a small arf in the back of his mind. What the heck? He thought to himself as he rolled over trying to think nothing of it. However the voices still were calling to him. He finally rolled back on his back, and opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was the sun causing him to squint his eyes. "Who is their?" He asked as he sat up straight and looked around. It wasn't long before he saw Kiyoshi and his pet. "Oh, hey whats up! He said as looked at him with squinted eyes. He mentioned something about never doing anything togather as a team. " You are right, and with that at mind lets get some training. I will help you if you help me? Seika said as he stood up on both feet. " How about a friendly spar and train?" Seiak suggested as he was now facing him while standing up.

[Ryu]

*Double*

He didn’t wait for a replay to this idea he just figured Kiyoshi was going to agree to it. With that in mind Seika leaped back, and started gathering his lightning chakra through out his body once more. He was well rested, and had enough energy back to maybe finish up this jutsu without any breaks. Who knows he might even have enough to finish this fight. He was drawing some chakra still from the lightning stuck tree, but most of its energy had already been drained. He couldn’t always count on something outside, so he was mainly focusing on his own chakra. He knew he hadn’t achieved the peace of mind so he couldn’t open all his chakra levels, and that was probably the key to learning this jutsu with enough chakra. However slowly but surely with more and more chakra he was putting out the other level of his chakra was beginning to open up. This was very good and meant a lot of things for him, since it would help gain his maximum amount of chakra that he had locked inside.

He continually gathered chakra, but he didn’t waste as much time as he normally would since he was now in a battle situation. He quickly performed the handseals, and pushed out his chakra near him. As usual his legs came out human like, and now his whole lower half formed, but it still was see through a little. It was no where near clone status. With this failed attempt at mind he jumped back a couple more spaces away from Kiyoshi, and gathered chakra once more. This time he didn’t relay on the tree since all the energy left behind was gone. He closed his eyes as he forced more chakra throughout his body. Only this time he was gathering all the chakra in the very center of his stomach. Maybe if he placed it all in one spot he would get better results. Hoping this was true, he continued to focus all his chakra their, and opened his eyes making sure Kiyoshi wasn’t going to get the best of him.

Once more he quickly performed the handseals, but he found himself messing them up about midway through. ”Damn, I knew I wouldn’t be able to get it!” He yelled at himself. Still there was no time in beating himself up over messing up a little hand seal. After all that’s why this is called training. He quickly got right back on track as he focused slightly a little more chakra in his stomach, before attempting the handseals again. Failure would not stop him as he would try the handseals once more, and he took his time while doing them. This time around he got the handseals right as he pushed outward his chakra. A slight yellowish blue formed beside him as his whole lower half was once more created. Only this time it was human like! He couldn’t see through it at all. He made a small note in his mind that he had achieved his goal.

With this goal finished he wasted no time in making a new goal; finishing the jutsu completely. With the showing he had created the lower half allowed him to know he was half way through his training. However he still failed to create the whole clone giving Kiyoshi a huge advantage! Hopefully Kiyoshi too was learning a new jutsu and wouldn’t get it right on his first try. ”One more try wouldn’t hurt anything.” He said just loud enough that only he himself could hear his words. He started to gather chakra once more in this never ending cycle of training. He could feel a slight spark rush through his body, and shock him for a quick second. The shock wasn’t painful to him at all, instead he found it comforting. He saw the most success when he centered his chakra into his stomach, so he would once more do it again. If he was looking on the inside of himself he had a feeling he could see a faint glow from all his chakra in one spot. He only had this feeling, because he could feel warmth coming from his gut.

This feeling assured him it was time to try the jutsu out once more. He performed the handseals slightly quicker then last time, and once more he didn’t miss one. This made him feel proud of himself as he pushed his chakra out of his stomach and beside his physical body. ”Keep It coming! He edged himself on. Once again his whole lower half was formed very human like. To his surprise though he could now see his whole body formed, but his whole upper half was transparent. He didn’t matter this brought a huge smile to his face, and for almost a second there he completely forgot he was with Kiyoshi. Who could blame him? I mean if someone works hard and the see this kind of progress they too would stop and smile forgetting about everything else for a second or two. It was completely normal; he just hoped Kiyoshi didn’t notice this. He was a little scared if Kiyoshi did he might be some what offended.

1,000 Shurkiens of Death
Rank: C
Skill: Genjutsu
Effect: A genjutsu in which the user looks to be throwing 1,000 Shuriken at rapid speed. However, this is just a mere illusion. However, it is ideal if you want to slip in a shuriken or two
Special: "Handeals"
Drawback: Can be broken by will power/ Sharingan. not much of a draw back it takes little chakra and it is useless without any really weapons. in addition, it will not fool smart ninja.
Description: after the basic handsigns, the user begins to throw a barrage of Shuriken at the opponent. While many of these are but mere illusions, some of them may be real so watch out! the user can also move around while performing this jutsu. It is very dangerous if you do not break it quick.
Limit: Figment Perception

Train? Of course! "Yeah! Let's go! *Arf!*" Seika instantly got ready to do something, forming handsigns quickly. But nothing came out, it seemed as if Seika was learning something new and hadn't gotten to the part where he could use it yet. "Alright, which technique?" I talked to myself as I drew upon my memory banks in order to think of a Genjutsu. I knew just the one, 1,000 Shurkiens of Death. I'd be hilarious to see how Seika reacted to thousands of shuriken coming to him at once.

I started with the handsigns, the basis of all jutsu, Genjutsu included. A simple set of handsigns that would be used to make the illusion of thousands of shuriken flying at the opponent at high speeds, quite useful. I slowly formed the handsigns and focused on the task at hand, I could feel my chakra move in the correct direction.

I knew what I'd have to do, I needed to get the Genjutsu in only one try, something I'd never done before! I knew I could do it though, something inside of me told me that I was going to be able to master such a jutsu without too much happening, without hardly any time or energy. I already knew how Genjutsu worked so I decided to work this Genjutsu like I would any other.

I closed my eyes as I focused, I hoped that Seika wouldn't fire anything too dangerous at me before I was done. First was the target, the thousands of illusion shuriken. Every time a Genjutsu is formed the target is the only one receiving any of the chakra, nothing more and nothing less.

The next part was always to focus on what I wanted the Genjutsu to do, I wanted thousands of shuriken to be flying at Seika at deadly speed. Spinning like miniature saw blades moving forward at deadly speeds, no doubt that such a sudden sight would freak anyone who was on the receiving end out.

And last, I had to focus my chakra onto the target while focusing on what I wanted the Genjutsu to accomplish. I could feel my chakra move into the open space in front of me, filling the empty space with chakra and spinning quickly. Spinning, spinning, spinning faster! It was done!

I opened my eyes, forming the handsigns again in order to make sure the chakra moved how I wanted. Images of thousands of spinning shuriken would appear in front of me and get ready to fly toward Seika, who was... smiling, that was good I guess. As I wondered what Seika's reaction would be to my technique, the shuriken flew loose; the sharp spinning metal stars sliced through the air toward Seika. "Yeah! *Arf!*" While they'd do no damage it'll still be hilarious to see Seika's reaction.

The first round of the Chuunin Exams were finally over, but the weight of them were only mildly lifted from his shoulder. He had tried his best on the test of the mind and, although he felt confident in his answers, the anticipation of receiving the results were still killing him. Still, it gave him a little comfort to know that at this point there was nothing more he could do. Until the results were posted, all Shinobu could do was continue to train. He ventured away from the city capital and was now approaching the same training spot he had gone to before.


He walked along a dirt road which was adjacent to the shore below. The path divided a while back, one way leading to the beach and the other to a cliff just above it. Shinobu took the path to the cliff, with the beach and sea right below him. Shinobu continued to this path until he reached a wide open field with high grass, out of sight of anyone who might have been below him. He removed his cloak and tactical vest and laid on in the grass right next to him. As he did this he thought about how he would possibly find his teammates, Seika and Kiyoshi. Since the moment he arrived in the Land of Sea he had been looking for them and haven't find them yet. He decided that after a little training, Shinobu would continue to search for them.


But training did come first as the Genin reached into his pouch a removed a tightly wrapped scroll. It was a wind jutsu which he had hoped to learn before the Chuunin Exams had begun. It didn't matter now though as he would be able to learn it before the Second part of the exams begun. Looking over the details of the jutsu, Shinobu was delighted to find out that no hand seals were required for this jutsu. This made it that much powerful as it could be performed almost immediately and without the delay of forming hand seals. This also made it much simpler to learn.


With the hand seal part of the jutsu down, Shinobu moved on to actually performing the jutsu. He went back over to his harness and removed his double-bladed kunai. He thought that this weapon would work best in a jutsu such as this. He flipped the dagger in between his fingers, thinking what method would be best to successfully do this jutsu. It seemed to him that all this jutsu was, was manipulating the wind around with chakra, and turning it into a sharp sickle shaped blast of wind. With this in mind, Shinobu began to try the jutsu.


The grass in front of him was just above his waist and so, he could be able to tell if he did the jutsu somewhat correctly if the grass is cut. With his kunai in hand, Shinobu pumped chakra into it and into the air around him. He tried his best to imagine a sickle shape blade exiting from his kunai. He needed the air to be sharp, so he tried his best to accomplish this. Finally believing he was ready to perform the jutsu, Shinobu raised his blade into the air and came sweeping down with it diagonally. A strong blast of wind came as he swept his arm. Looking down at the grass, Shinobu was disappointed to see that they were still intact. How pathetic. He tried his hand at this jutsu once more, focusing more on the sharpness of the wind, rather than the size of it. After gathering his wind chakra and sweeping his arm down, a small area, about a half a foot in diameter of the grass was sliced in half. Already Shinobu could tell he was making a little progress.

Out of no where Seika saw many shuriken coming at him from all directions. He closed his eyes and grew tense awaiting the pan about to unfold on him. However the longer he waited the more he realized it was genjutsu. Kiyoshi was probably finding this very funny to watch his reactions, but Seika wondered how funny he would find it once he had mastered this jutsu. Even with the shuriken still raining down upon him he managed to keep focus, and try the jutsu for another time. ”That was very funny!” Seika shouted out to Kiyoshi to show him that he no longer falling for the trick. His mind was much stronger then that. ”I hope you are ready for me now!” He yelled out as he took a small step backwards.

He started to gather his chakra once more to the very center of his gut. He was getting the most results when he did so, so why not keep doing it? His normal chakra transformed into his lightning chakra. He finally could begin his training again. He made sure the only thoughts that raced through his mind were those of lightning. He could a feel a small power surge flowing through his body, but he couldn’t quite point out where they were headed, but he knew it was working. He really hated the fact that he had to keep gathering the chakra to perform any jutsu. Oh well how else could he grow strong if he never gathered the chakra needed? He couldn’t. Since it was a battle situation now, and Kiyoshi knew the genjutsu was no longer affecting him he needed to hurry. In a battle your opponent would never wait for you to gather enough chakra it’s just supposed to come to you naturally.

With that stuck in his head he started the row of handseals. Once again he was taking it slower then he normally would with any other hand seal of a jutsu he already knew. Still, he was getting better at performing them, and he quickly finished them with no problems at all. As soon as he finished the surge he once felt was no more, and a clone was forming besides him. Finally a full human like clone formed by his side! Seika himself couldn’t believe it. ”Lets go!” He said with a hint of cockiness in his voice. However as soon as he took a step he noticed his clone didn’t follow. Just to make sure it wasn’t him. He took a couple of steps forward while glaring down at his clone, but still no movement. Figures he mastered the clone creation, but not the movement.

He would give it another go as he started to gather more chakra as fast as he could. In the pit of his stomach was a slight electrical feeling that kind of tickled him. The feeling made him smile, but he still kept full focus. This was a good sign since it showed he could keep focus through anything. He closed his eyes, and a clinched is fists tight as he tried to push forth more chakra, but still it was a battle situation so he decided he gathered enough. He quickly started the row of handseals as fast as he could, and to his surprise he didn’t mess up one. ”Here I go!” He said to himself as he pushed forth his chakra and the electrical feeling left him. Besides him another clone formed, it was another perfect human like clone. Now was time for the test, he moved his head from side to the side and the clone did the same, and as he took a step the clone did as well. However the clone was suppose to attack and move on its own. So he waited to see if it would, and once it tried to take a step forward. It busted out into a blast of lightning. The lightning slightly shocked Seika, since as soon as he saw it bust he quickly jumped out of the way. Once again he failed giving Kiyoshi another wide open attack.

Seeing that he had failed yet again, but being so close he wanted to continue on. {i]”Yo, can we put this little spar on hold?”[/i] He shouted out to him. He was hoping he would understand, after all he needed to get as strong as possible, and fast. With that being said Seika would rush over a little bit closer to the sea, and just stared out trying to figure out how he was going to get it to move on it’s on. This certainly was a task Seika never had been faced with. This bugged him a little bit, but overall he really didn’t mind it since he loved a challenge. He clapped his hands together and rubbed them creating friction. As he did so he inhaled a deep breath then let it out smoothly. ”Lets give it a go!” He said as he stretched to both sides.

He closed his eyes since there was no need to look out at the sea. It wasn’t going to tell him how to perform the jutsu. He gathered his thoughts, and cleared them from his mind for the time being. Once his mind was cleared he could finally begin, and he did just that. He started to gather his chakra at the center of his gut as usual. His lightning chakra was growing stronger as his training progressed, and he could feel it. The surge his chakra created in his gut was amazing, and probably could shock someone slightly if they touched it. He was gathering a huge amount of chakra, and as he did so he slowly took in deep breaths for three seconds then gently let them out. Doing this made him focus more, and gather chakra easier.

After ten minuets he stopped gathering his chakra, and would give the jutsu another try. He was a little anxious knowing this could be the time he mastered it! He performed the handseals needed in record time for him, and didn’t mess up a single one. Once they were finished he pushed out his chakra beside him, and another perfect human like clone formed besides him. He already had gotten this far so he was to impressed with himself just yet. He looked both ways, and as did the clone. With every movement he performed the clone perfectly mimicked him. Which was a good sign, now was he able to get the clone to walk on its own this time around? The answer to that question was still out floating in the sea, and Seika figured it was time to reel in the answer. He stared at his clone as it attempted to take its first step. All was good, it could walk! Seika was now impressed with his progress. Now could it attack? He questioned, and as soon as he did he watched the clone get ready to throw a punch but it busted into sparks of lightning, bringing slight pain to Seika.

Seika was so hyped up by his progress that he didn’t bother to mop around about his failure for a few seconds. Instead he went right back to work. He started to gather his chakra once more to the center of his gut. ”I must get stronger “ He told himself as he pushed himself to his limits. Seika really wasn’t used to working this hard so he was breathing very heavily, but still showed no sign of letting up. Everybody in these exams have worked ten times harder then him, and he wanted to prove to them, he was still juts as strong! However his actions would speak louder then his words so with the in mind he preserved his goal of mastering this jutsu. He went on gathering his chakra for another ten minuets. Sweat was dripping from his face, and heat could be felt from his stomach. He really just wanted to avoid the heat, and try this jutsu one last time before he would jump out into the sea to cool down as one would say.

He felt that he was ready, and so he perform the row of handseals once more as he pushed fourth his chakra outside of him. As he did so the warmth in his gut vanished, and his clone appeared once more. Only this time it felt, and looked different. The details were more exact, and its vibes where more human like. This was a huge thumb up for him and his training progress. Once again he made the clone move on its on, and it was walking more smoothly. ”I am getting good!” The clone would say as it stared at Seika. This was something Seika didn’t see coming, but he didn’t mind it. Actually he liked it, now when he was alone he had someone to talk to. Oddly enough t being he didn’t seem to bother him. Now was the attempt many had been waiting for. Could the clone attack on its own? The clone leaped back then forward once more only as he leaped forward he tried to kick at Seika. The kick was very slow, and poorly done, but Seika didn’t bother about all that right now. Theo only thing that mattered was the clone could now walk and some what attack on it’s own. This was the most progress he had seen, and now he was only one away from mastering it!

The user can control the motions of the swallows completely. When first learned, the user is only capable of creating up to five ravens at a time. Each time learned, the user can create an additional five ravens. When the user attains to capability of creating fifty ravens, the technique increases to a C rank technique, allowing for an additional five per training as usual. When the user reaches the capability of creating one hundred twenty swallows, the training becomes B rank. The user can create two hundred swallows, total, before they max out.

Hendrix learnt this Jutsu once before but it wasn't one that you learn it one and that’s all its more of the growing tech. In response to that he started to make the Tiger Dog and Tiger handseals while channeling his chakra to his hands. Using his chakra to channel the electric element of his chakra. Taking it mixing his chakra with to create at least one raven made of lightning. It was little easier this time so he was able to make 10 birds with ease. Well that’s what he thought until he was only able to make six birds made out of lightning.

He made a ravens of lightning were about 6inches in size he was learning but he needed more then that. Making the Tiger Dog and Tiger handseals again he would try it again this time now using more charka but using a controlled amount. He molding his chakra with the electrons in his body to create and bird of pure electricity by . He made a raven made of pure electricity that was about 18 inches in wingspan. The 6 birds were about the size they needed to be. A couple more and he would be ready to try for 15. So he Making the Tiger Dog and Tiger handseals again he would try it again this time focusing his chakra. He using a D-rank amount of chakra he begin molding it in the manor to create and bird of pure electricity.

Taking the electrons in the air with his chakra causing them to become chakra charged and burst into 7 electric furry birds. He command all the birds crash into each other making a fire work display. Making the Tiger Dog and Tiger handseals again he would try it again this time focusing his chakra. He molding his chakra with the electrons in his body to create and bird of pure electricity. This time he upgraded to the number of 8 birds. All 8 of the thunder ravens were about 18 inches in wingspan. He took the 8 birds and made them fly around the trees in the forest one by one having the hit a tree the go pass.

Now he was able to make 8 birds he still needs to be able to make 2 more before he can count it as a pass to the next level. Continuing his training he made the Tiger Dog and the Tiger handseals again like he had done many times before. After doing it a couple different ways he found he gets the best results when he channels his charka then pushes out of every part of his body. Then he took his chakra and molded it with the electrons in the air and caused them to spark. Eventually leading to him creating 10 thunderstorm ravens all of a wingspan of 2 feet.

The took control of the birds and put them into straight line formation in the middle of a tree nearby. What he was thinking if he had every bird hit the tree in the same spot it would burn a hole in the tree. So he took it that plan and put it into action and had the birds ram themselves into the tree at a pretty fast speed. One after another the birds crashed into the tree about the fifth one you could see the tree starting to crack. So he continued one then the other until he was done and the birds were gone but his plan worked partly the tree did fall. Only that it wasn't because of the ravens. So with that done he begin to here noises.


That he begin to follow to find three ninja training near bay each other they all had a cloud headband and could remember to one was Kiyoshi and the other was Seika so he walked over. Not knowing how everyone else did on the written test he begin to talk, Hello Seika and Kiyoshi how you do on the exams I passed?

(sorry guys, Not only am I bummed about failing the chunnin exams but I also haven't been able to get online a lot lately.)

"Ahhahahaha!" The Genjutsu Shuriken flew straight through Seika, and the look on his face was priceless! I wish I could have taken a picture as I say him first look at the massive amounts of shuriken. It took me a little while to stop laughing and understand everything before I could even tell what he was saying.

”Yo, can we put this little spar on hold?” It seemed like Seika wanted to train more than play. "Yeah, I need to make sure Kaito isn't..." I looked around a little bit. "Kaito?" Ah crud! Kaito had run off and he was surly going to steal something and cause trouble! "Errr... I have stuff to do... I'll meet up with you late Seika."

By the time Oda came down the hill towards me, I'd already be on my way to find Kaito.

Still with his clone Seika would try to improve it’s speed when it attacks. Even though he was kind of unsure of how to do so, he still went about training like he knew what he was doing. He stood in front of his clone, and placed his hands out in front of his face. He wanted his clone to work on taking quick jabs to its open palm for a couple of minuets. Seika wasn’t really sure what this would help, but it was still training so he thought what the hell. Very slowly the clone started to strike each hand. It seemed as if it was struggling to attack, so Seika finally knew where to start off in his training. He figured the attacks where so slow because he really didn’t know how to exactly attack. Alright I guess we start off with the basics. Seika thought to himself as he stood to the side, and watched his clone throw a punch.

Right off the back Seikan noticed the first problem. It wasn’t extending its elbow enough making it attack kind of awkwardly. Seika took a step towards the clone and corrected the way it attacked. However a thought popped in his mind. What if it was being so slow because Seika didn’t push fourth enough chakra? That could defiantly be a possibility. So he figured why not make another one. He ran a couple feet away from his clone and made it vanish sending lightning everywhere. Luckily Seika was far enough to remain unharmed. ”Alright so im right back starting from scratch.” he said as he walked back to where he blew up his own clone.

Once he got back in position he closed his eyes, and started to gather chakra once again and hopefully it would be his last time until the exams started up again. He was gathering all his chakra toward the center of his gut. His chakra was at the peek of its power from all the training he had been pushing himself through. He really liked the feeling as it surged through his body like shocks of adrenalin. It really got his blood flowing, and he once more was feeling the warmth coming from his gut. He had never gathered this much chakra to perform this jutsu before, and maybe that’s exactly what he was lacking. Only time would tell as he waited a little more before he would try.

”Well here I go!” He said as he started the row of handseals quickly, and started to push fourth all his chakra. The power he once felt from his chakra had left his body and was being inserted into the clone that was forming besides him. Within a second the clone was perfectly formed, and Seika could tell it was twice as stronger as the last one. He figured the chakra had a lot to do with it, but now was the major test. Could it move faster? Seika was about to find out as he had his own clone start to attack him. Unexpectedly a fist struck him across the face. Even with the pain it brought he still smiled knowing that the problem was fixed he finally achieved his goal of mastering this jutsu, and getting the speed down perfect. The clone was going to be useful down the road of his life.

Out of no where the one ninja who was them during the travel here appeared. ”Hey! I passed the first exam how about you?!” Seika would ask, but as soon as he finished he started to speak once more. ”I think we should be heading back to the capital now.”He said as he walked up the newly appeared ninja, and singled for his team to follow. ”Kiyoshi, I am sorry you didn’t pass. I am glad we got to meet though, and I will see you back home!” Seika said with a smile.

(Short)
Hendrix listed to his new teammate he was right to go back to the capital so he followed Seika. The next test was still to be unfolded so he was going get some rest for the next day of exams when he got a note from a bird saying there was mix up and he had failed. He didn't care much about spectating so he would start to head to the Docks to leave.

Shinobu had made a little progress in the new Wind Jutsu he was learning, but not much. The double-bladed kunai was still in his hand as this was what he was using to help create the sharp blast of wind. There seemed to be not much to this learning this jutsu as no hand seals were required and it seemed to depend heavily on just as adept you were at using chakra; wind chakra to be more exact. Shinobu liked to believe he had enough experience wind jutsus to be able to learn this jutsu very quickly. Gripping his kunai, Shinobu wondered just how long it would take for him to learn this. Hopefully, it would be on this very next attempt.


Bringing the kunai high into the air, Shinobu let chakra flow from his hand and into the blade. Not only that though, Shinobu tried his best to also manipulate the wind around him. Shinobu hoped to use this natural wind to his strength, transforming it from a peaceful breeze into a slashing gust. Once he felt he had added enough chakra, Shinobu came down with the blade across his face in a diagonal sweep. As he did this, a strong gust of wind exited his arm, following the motion which he made. The sickle shape blast of wind, considerably longer than the one prior to this, went across the tall grass, easily slicing it in half where the wind touched.


This was a significant improvement from his last time. He tried his hand at the jutsu a few more times, concentrating just on increasing the distance of the blast. Each time it increased, little by little. Shinobu was surprised to see the range capabilities of such an offensive jutsu. He hacked away at the tall grass each time he performed this jutsu. However, cutting grass was nothing to be excited about. He decided that he needed something more challenging to see how much force this jutsu actually had. Looking around him, Shinobu saw nothing but grass surrounding him. Just then, he was struck with the idea to possibly slice into the very side of the cliff with his jutsu. For wind to have so much strength was tough to believe. The scroll did say however, that with enough force, the blast of wind could cut through rock. Shinobu gathered all of his belongings which he laid down before, wrapping them securely in his black cloak.


He then walked to the side of the cliff with his belonging held under his right arm. Shinobu looked down at the beach and swiftly jumped down the edge, falling and finally landing onto the soft sand. After his really cool jump down to the beach, Shinobu faced the jagged side of the cliff. The solid rock looked like it wouldn't budge an inch to a blast of wind, no matter how fast or powerful. Hesistant-Shinobu faced the looming wall and raised his double-bladed kunai. Gathering chakra into his blade, Shinobu lifted it high into the air and came down with it swiftly. As he did, the blast of wind could be heard as it exited his blade. The wind banged into the wall. However, it stopped instantly and dissipated into the ocean breeze quickly. Inspecting where his blast hit, Shinobu saw only a slight scratch into the walls surface.


Not yet completely discouraged, Shinobu stepped back to try his hand at this jutsu once more. He raised his blade high into the air, above his head. He took more time to prepare, gathering a great deal of strength. He felt the wind spiraling in his hand and in his blade, making it actually vibrate. Once it was ready, Shinobu came down with his blade, sending out a powerful blast of wind with full force at the side of the cliff. The sharp sickle shaped gust of wind cut deep into the side of the cliff. It didn't go completely through it, but it made a thin whole at least three feet deep. Shinobu smiled as he appreciated his work.


Just then, a masked ninja swopped in. He appeared instantly to the side of Shinobu. He handed him a sealed not and vanished, just as quickly as he came. Shinobu looked down at the envelope and saw his name signed on it. Reading over its contents, Shinobu found that he had passed the written exam of the Chuunins! He continued to read and found that he had to immediately report back to the capital. Right away, he put back on all of his items and headed towards the capital.
