Sora Training (open)

[Sora Yanaro]

The area contain a small pond and many trees. The pond water are cold as ice and clear as glass. The ground are quite soft and muddy near the pond. Surround the pond are trees and large granite rocks that look as though it would crumple to dust by the slightest touch. The trees are tall and thick, but there are barely any leave on it.

Sora walked up to the pond and let out a soft sigh. He like coming here to release his frustration, train, or just to relax. The air around the pond are very cold but to his liking. Taking off his scythe he placed on a large rock and take out a old scroll. He found the scroll while searching for a book in the library. It wasn't the only one he found but decided that it would be the first one he read. In it are the jutsu he wanted and had been looking for. "I'm walking the same path as you, dad." He whisper softly to the air and let out another sigh before opening the scroll. He quickly read through it, memorizing everything.
Several minutes later he placed the scroll next to his scythe and closed his eyes. Taking in a deep breath he cleared his mind of all thought and concentrate. It had been many months since he last try to perform or even learn any jutsu, so he is a little rusty on the old side. He goes through the texts in his mind once more time before trying it.
He covered the palms of his hand with chakra before collecting the air around him with his hands. He cupped his hands together and start mixing the wind and chakra. It was several minutes later when he began felling something pocking his palm. Thought that it was done Sora open his hands to find that it was instead a leaf and nothing else.
He let out a sigh before trying again. He performed the handseals, collected the air, and before mixing it with his chakra he closed his eyes and concentrate. Thinking of nothing else but the air forming into a senbon he began the process. This time it only took 27 seconds before he felt the senbon pocking his palm and hurled it at the leaf several meters away. Then right after that he was distracted by a deer and didn't saw the senbon piercing the leaf.
He tried to look for the same leaf but with no hope so decided to try again. Repeating the process, this time with better result of 3 senbons he hurled it at a bird flying overhead. He senbons hit the bird left wing and he watch as it fell out of the sky and toward the icy pond. He perform the jutsu again, this time hitting another bird overhead with 7 senbons, and watch as it hit the ground. Satisfy with the result he walk back toward the large rock and sat down, picking up his book and began reading.

Sora stood up and walked over to the dead bird. He picked it up and turned it over, and began examining it wing. He was sure that he threw four wind senbons at it left wing, and three on it right, but it seemed that only two wind senbons hit it left wing and none hit the right wing. The bird was flying only several meters above his head and from what he read that the senbons created could hit a further target and he is confidence in his aim. "What went wrong?" He asked himself before trying it again, this time aiming at a raven sitting on the branches twelve meters in front of him.
He quickly performed the handseals and collect the air, and began mixing. He waited for a while for the senbons to form and was sure that there are five before hurling it at the raven. He watched as the senbons leave his hands and fly toward the raven. After six meters that senbons began to faze and only two out of the five senbons was still intact when it hit the raven, and even then it caused little damage. He watched as the raven turned to look at him before flying off. He came to a conclusion that it wasn't that his senbons miss the target, but that it wasn't strong enough to last.
So with determination in his eyes he began to the process over again. He performed the handseals, collect the air and began mixing it with chakra, this time he sent in more chakra than the last time, and instead on making a lot of senbons he focused on one at a time. The process took up to 4 minutes before he could form three senbons that he was sure is condensed enough. He aimed at the same raven and hurled the senbons at it, and watched as the senbon hit it right wing. He aimed all three senbons at the same area on it wing so instead of it each causing minor cut the cut was larger, though not so large.

Learned,

[Sora Yanaro]

"What should I learn next?" Sora asked himself as he goes through the memory of his parents. His mom a water specialist and his dad a wind specialist. Since he already learned one wind move he decided that it should be water this time. He hurried back to the rock where he left the other scroll and randomly picked out one. He picked up which look to be a new scroll and in good condition, better than the other. "Suichuu, underwater, well that seem easy." He said to himself before memorizing everything on it. "I could have learned this without the scroll. No wonder it's new, no one needs it." Placing the scroll next to his scythe he walked toward the pond. He dropped his pack and jumped into the icy water. He left his clothes on when he jumped in so when it absorb the water it began dragging him down. The pond was shallower than he expected. Within seconds he was already several feet underwater and still sinking.
Quickly, he performed the handseals and channel the chakra to his mouth and lung, concentrating on trying to breathe carefully. He shuts his eyes and began taking in slow breathe. He can feel the air being separate from the water in his mouth and into his lung, but the air is thin and he is not getting enough. His heart beat faster as the thought of drowning pop into his head and he began breathing faster and faster. He can feel the chakra wearing off. 'CALM DOWN!' He told himself as he slowed down his breathing and calm himself. Then, right after that he felt solid ground under his feet. With all his force he kicked off and began swimming madly toward the surface. After half way up he can feel the chakra loosing it effect, with every breath he took in it's as though there are less air than before and he even swallowed some water. Kicking his feet harder he focused on reaching the surface while keeping his concentration on the chakra.
It took him three minutes to sink to the bottom, but only one minute to swim back up. The jutsu broke just as he reached the surface. He took in a deep breath as he emerged from the water. Keeping his body afloat he took in several more deep breaths before swimming toward land.
He picked up his pack and walk back to the rock and sat down. His heart still beat widely as the memory of the even pop back into his head. After two minutes of resting and calming himself he began undressing, lying the wet clothing on the rock. After that is done he turned and stare at the pond, getting himself ready. He took off running and jumped into the pond, splashing water every where. This time he was ready and instead of sinking he calmly floating in the middle of the pond. After taking in a deep breath he let himself sink underwater. Quickly he performed the handseals and start channeling the chakra to his mouth, lung, and this time eyes and ears too.
He felt the chakra molding itself to the shape of his mouth, and at the same time leaving a sour taste. As the chakra covered up his eyes he felt a tingling sensation on the back of his eyeball. It was like looking through one of his father goggle. He look around, observing the underwater scene. It wasn't long before his air supply ran out and he had to take in slow and deep breath. Unlike last time the air is thicker and he can tell that there are more oxygen in it. He smiled and began swimming around. Four minutes passed and everything is still normal. Just to be on the safe side he swam near the surface not so shallow area. Six minutes go by before he felt the strain on his lung. Less air is going in and the sour taste gotten more sour. Waters was getting pass the chakra covering and he can feel the water hitting his eyes. He kept underwater for another minute before swimming back to the surface.
He canceled the jutsu and swam to shore and lied down on the hard and muddy ground. He closed his eyes and take in a deep breath of fresh air before sitting back up. "Seven minutes. Four minutes then seven minutes. I need to move faster." He was ashamed of his progress, even though he knew that it was great result for someone who hadn't done any serious training in a long time. "Fifteen minutes, next time it fifteen minutes." He told himself before lying back down and rest. He determined to get to at least fifteen minutes the next time he go under, fifteen than a full twenty minutes.
After five minutes of resting, he stood back up and walked into the water. As he walk be performed the handseals and began channeling the chakra into his mouth, lungs, eyes and ears. The chakra mold itself into the shape of his mouth and expand his lung. It then covered up his eyes and ears. As the chakra cover up his eyes he dived into the water, swimming toward the bottom. Not so confidence that he got everything right he took in a deep breath anyway, and was relieved when it was air and not water that flowed into his lungs. He kept on diving until he reached rock bottom, where he quickly held on to a large rock and relax. Five minutes passed and everything was still normal. The jutsu isn't wavering and is holding. Ten minutes passed, and still he held on. Each time he breath in air goes into his lung, except for when he was distracted by a bright rainbow fish that time he got a mouthful of water. After fifteen minutes, or what he assumed to be fifteen minutes, the jutsu began to waver. Not so much air is gotten into his lung as before, but still enough to let him go by. He kicked off the rock and swam toward the surface. Sixteen, the jutsu is holding, but he can feel it breaking down. Seventeen, Each breath he took in brought in both air and a little water. It was seventeen and a half when he broke through the surface, just as the jutsu broke completely. "Awesome." He said weakly before swimming toward shore. "I did it, close anyway." It going to be sometime before he can try it again, or want to try it again.

Picking up his pack he walked back to the rock and began drying himself. After putting on his clothes, he picked up his book and began scanning it. The book is special, a pass down by his father, containing ice released jutsu his dad had recorded. He stopped at the Snow Swallow technique. It seemed interesting and he decided that it is his next jutsu. Since it needed an ice source he walked over to the pond. "Aisu Soushi (Ice Creation)." He quickly, but carefully lowered the temperature of the water near him, using his jutsu. After several minutes, he had created a four meters block of ice. With a smile on his face he goes over the texts again, making sure that everything is in order.

Carefully, he performed the hand seals and placed his hand on the ice block. He channeled his chakra into the ice, and closed his eyes. He mixed the ice with his chakra, molding it into the shape he wanted. He closed his eyes and imagine the shape of the swallow. When he opened his eyes he was disappointed at his swallow, or what he guesses was a swallow, a misshape one at that. The swallow was missing one half of it left wing. The head is not there, and the feet have no toe what so ever. He is not even going to try using, he is to ashamed to even think about using that swallow.

He picked up the swallow and place it next to his scythe. Performing the hand seals again he placed his hand onto the ice and concentrate. Slowly, he sent his chakra into the ice, molding it. This time instead of imagine the swallow as a whole he first started at it feet then move up. He can feel the ice moving around, shifting, and breaking off. He finished with the legs, then moved into the body. He didn't need to work much with the body, for it really the easiest part to imagine. Then, when he finished with that he goes to the wing. Swallow have long pointed wings, and he even goes into the details of the feathers. He moved onto the tail then the head. After what seemed to be the longest, five minutes of his life, he opened his eyes and smiled as he gazed upon his perfection. The swallow looked real, as real as what he imagined a swallow looks like. He picked it up and held it in front of him. He aimed at the tree and throw the ice swallow at it. He watched as it spread it wing and flew at the tree, but it never got there. After only a second the swallow melted midway, and the only part that hits the tree is it legs.

He knew what he did wrong. Focused only on it appearance he didn't think about it thickness and strength. He tried again, quickly after performing the handseals he channel his chakra into the ice and watch as the ice began to moved and taking shape. He has the shape of the swallow in his head and this time he carefully shaped the ice. The swallow created is as big as a large kunai, as said in the text. He picked it up and weighted it. "Not too heavy, nor is it too light." He told himself and threw the swallow at the tree. He watched as it flew at the tree, and hit it at full force, without any part of it melted off.

The text said that when first learned he should be able to create up to five swallow, so he kept on practicing. He performed the handseals, channeled the chakra, and began shaping the swallows. He learned that it better to finish one first before moving onto the second because the result is too hideous swallow that doesn't look like a swallow. After that he repeated the process, and began shaping the first swallow. It took him around a minute to create the first one and he moved onto the second one. This one only took him half the time of the first one and it look exactly the same. After finishing the second one, he learned that it took more concentration to keep both from melting. He tried to create a third swallow, but failed and decided to test the first two. They flew fast and steady, hitting the target he aimed.

Sora quickly performed the handseals and channeled the chakra into the ice. The ice began to shape itself into one swallow, then two swallow. When he tried to create the third one he failed, but he was determined so instead of 'that it,' the closed his eyes and concentrate. It took him a minute to create the third swallow, and another two minutes to create the fourth one. There were several drops of sweat on his forehead as he picked it up and let it fly toward the raven flying overhead. He watched as the swallow began to circle the raven then began slamming itself at the raven. In seconds the raven was dead and falling toward his pack. He watched as the last swallow ram itself at the dead raven, pushing it off course and toward the other dead birds from before. "Well...I guess I have to cook my own diner." He told himself and began collecting the bird bodies. He cooked up a fire and began plucking off the feather and using a stick he jam it through the bird body and placed it over the fire, and then waited for it to cook.

Sora goes through the texts again as he devoured the raven. It said that he should practice and practice until he is able to produced 20 swallows. The thought of making 20 swallows and controlling them to him seem like almost impossible, but he is still going to do it anyway. He stood up after finishing the other two roasted birds and walked over to the pond. He stared at the tiny block of ice that a moment ago was what he used to create the swallow. Letting out a tiresome sigh he placed his hand on top of the water and began rapidly lowering the temperature. Seconds later a four meters block of ice was formed. He took in a deep breath before beginning the process.
He performed the handseals and placed his hand onto the ice block. The ice slowly began to take shape and within seven minutes he had created five swallows, and he is not even sweating. "Guess the more you do it, the easier it get." He told himself and smiled as he closed his eyes and focused on creating the sixth swallow. A minute passed and nothing happen. It took him three minutes total to create the sixth swallow. Sweat was appearing around his forehead. He wiped it away and focused on creating the seventh one. His concentration broke as a raven dropped some of it yogurt on his head. He let out a frustrated sigh before sending all six swallows off to destroy that one raven. For all he knew he killed four ravens, and none of them was the one that dropped the pie on his head. He stood up and walked over to the water and knelt down. Taking in a deep breath he dunk his head underwater, and began washing off the yogurt. He kept his head underwater for two full minutes before pulling it back up and walked back to the block of ice.
He calmed himself down before trying to perform the jutsu again. He quickly goes through the handseals and placed his hand on the ice. Though before he does anything he tilted his head and check to see if any raven or bird is flying overhead. When he saw nothing he let out a soft sigh before channeling the chakra into the ice. He closed his eyes and quickly formed five swallows. This time he was able to create all five at the same time and not have to create one at a time. He smiled and closed his eyes and concentrate. He created the sixth swallow withing the first minute, and the seventh on the fourth. Just a moment ago he wasn't able to create the seventh swallow, but now he was able to, and without even breaking a sweat. The feeling of accomplishment washed over him and was destroyed as he tried to create the eight swallow, but fail.
He let out a sigh before picking up all seventh swallow and look around. He found three raven resting on a branch nearby. He closed his eyes and let out another sigh before hurling all seven swallows at them. Three flew toward the one on the left, and began circling it. Two flew toward the one on the middle. One aimed for it left wing and the other aim for it right wing. The last two goes for the one of the right, both aimed for it stomach. He sat down and watched as the raven in the middle began flapping it wing widely and took off, then the other two followed. They didn't get far before they were hit. The one in the middle was the first to fall as both swallow broke both it wings and it dropped into the icy pond. The right raven dodged one swallow, but was hit by the other, and was hit again, it too dropped into the pond. The last raven was being circled by three swallow and is being toyed around. It tried to broke through, but was end up getting hit in the stomach. Another swallow hit it left wing and broke it and as it madly flapping it right wing, trying to save itself it didn't notice the last swallow dive bomb and aimed for it head. He watched as the swallow hit the raven and pushed it into the pond. "Dead before hitting the water." He said softly and stood up. He walked back to the ice, on the way performing the handseals. He knelt down and placed his hand onto the ice, channeled his chakra into it, and began molding the ice into swallows. Ten minutes later he stood back up with eight swallows in his hand, beads of sweat all over his face, and a felt as though someone is banging his head against the wall. He took in a deep breath before throwing all eight swallows at the tree on the other side of the pond. He sat down and watched as they flew, faster and faster. Their wings cut through the wind, and each second they picked up speed. From where he is to where the tree is are roughly fifty-seven meters, all eight swallow hit the tree thirteen seconds after he threw it. "Now that is fast." He gave himself a pat on the back before falling back onto the muddy ground and closed his eyes. Night is coming, the air is getting colder by the second, but to Sora the temperature is just right.

[Sora Yanaro]

Sora woke up to the sound of birds flying overhead and an unbearable inch on his back. He stood up and took of his clothes and jumped into the water. The icy cold water sent a jolt of different sensations through his body and mind and cleared his head completely. Taking in a deep breath he began diving down toward the bottom as quickly as he can. He surfaced again two minutes later. He swam around the pond for several more minutes before getting out and sat down next to his scythe. He put on his clothes and picked up the nearest scroll. "Kaze Ya no Jutsu (Wind Arrow Technique)." He read out loud and began memorized it as quickly as he could. After several seconds he stood up and began stretching.

After finishing stretching, he let out a small sigh and walked toward the nearest tree. He stood there and stared at it for several minutes before slowly performing the handseals and took in a deep breath through his mouth and hold it there. He channeled the chakra into his mouth, covering the inside, and then he start mixing the chakra with the air. After about a minute of mixing, he began molding the thick air in his mouth into an arrow shape. After another 30 seconds of molding, he was sure that there was at least something in his mouth so he blew out the air in his mouth, and nothing flew out except maybe his spit.

He let out a sighed and tried again. Quickly, he performed the handseals, and took in a deep breath. Then, with the air still in his mouth he sent the chakra in and slowly began mixing and molding them into an arrow shape. One minute later he opened his mouth and blew out as hard as he can, and a small wind arrow flew out and toward the tree twenty meters away. The arrow was about half the size of his mouth and maybe one feet long. The arrow never hit it target for it start to break up only after five meters. It gotten another two, maybe three meters before turning back to the air that it was before. He sighed, and picked up a large and heavy rock and threw it as hard as he can toward the tree. Like the arrow it never hit the tree but instead hit the ground four meters away. He look at the rock and made it his goal to get the arrow pass it before dissolving into air again, or in this case normal air.

He performed the handseals again, took in a deep breath, channeled a larger amount of chakra into his mouth, and began mixing the air. With more chakra he was sure that the arrow would make it to the target. After a minute, he decided to give it another minute just to make sure so he kept on mixing and molding the air. When another minute finally passed he opened his mouth as wide as he can and blew out. This time a larger arrow, nearly the size of his mouth flew out and straight toward the tree. The arrow flew faster than the last and lasted longer too, for instead of five meters, this one gotten to thirteen meters before starting to break up. The arrow did hit it target, but it wasn't as big as before, but instead it was only one-third the size and didn't cause much damage. He sighed and sat down and stared at the pond. He hit the tree he was sure of it but he knew that he could have done better. Slowly he stood back up and look back at the tree.

He quickly performed the handseals and took in a deep breath, from both his mouth and nose. Before that though, he had already covered the inside of his mouth with the right amount of chakra. He closed his mouth when he can't take anymore in and slowly, he began mixing the air and chakra together. The air became thicker in his mouth after about several seconds and he started molding it into the right shape. Several more minutes passed and he was sure that the time is right, he opened his mouth wide and blew the air out as hard as he can. From his mouth came an arrow, nearly as large as his mouth, and about two feet long. It flew straight and true, cutting through the air and not only does it not slow down, but picked up speed. He crossed his fingers as it passed the five meters, then ten, and finally fifteen. It was around sixteen, maybe seventeen that it started to break up, but it still hit the center of the tree with two0third of it size and shake the thick tree. He watched as what left of the leaves on the tree began to fall down toward the earth. He let out a silent sigh and sat down, kept on staring at the tree as his hand fondle an old sky colored scroll.

Sora stood up and walked over to the pond and opened the scroll. "Etama." He read out loud. "Let see here, beach ball, no damage, travel, quick, escaping, riding, horse, and serpent. It seemed fairly easy, just performed the handseals and form the ball, nothing hard." He placed the scroll down, far from the water and cracked his fingers. He stared straight ahead and breathe in slowly, then he performed the handseals, horse then serpent, and extended his hands out and waited. He channeled the chakra out from under his palm and felt as the air around his palm moving. Slowly at first, but then the air began to pick up speed and after a minute it had formed a small, very small ball, not even half the size of a beach ball, smaller than that. He shook his head and channeled more chakra out, but no matter how many the ball still doesn't grow. He sighed and let go of the chakra. He watched as the ball turned back to air and disappeared.

The scroll made it seem so easy, but he guessed that it not. He cracked his fingers once more time and began to relax. He relaxed his muscles, nerves, anything that can be relaxed in his body is relaxed, all, but his mind anyway. After a while his body started to get tired, and he tighten up everything. "Well that was all for nothing." He told himself and sighed before performing the jutsu. Horse then serpent, and he extended his hand downward, channeling the chakra out from his palm, and the air started to spin and formed a beachball size air ball. He smiled and guessed that it was that easy after all and turned around and sat down on the ball, testing it. Instead of sitting on a comfortable air beachball he fall back down, passing through the air ball, and hit the ground.

He guessed that he should have checked the ball first before testing it. Quickly he stood back up and brushed the dirt from his pant and tried again. He performed the handseals and extended his hands. The ball slowly began to form with the right amount of chakra, or what he estimated to be the right amount of chakra. This time before testing it he picked up a large rock, around half his weight and slowly placed it on the air ball. The rock passed through the ball and hit the ground with a thump. Not giving up he performed the jutsu again, handseals, then he extended his arm, channeled the chakra, and formed the ball with a little more chakra. This time though instead of using the large rock he looked around for a wide plank of wood. He found an old one lying around. It was a two by two feet plank, give or take a few inches. Carefully he placed it on the ball, and it held. He smiled again and picked up the rock and carefully placed it on top of the plank of wood. The jutsu held and the rock stay afloat. His smiled widen and he pushed the rock and plank away and carefully sat down on top of the ball of air. It was soft, and comfortable, like sitting on top of a pillow.

He laughed loudly, loving the sensation that is running through his bottom. He can felt the wind swirling around in that air ball, it tickle his butt. After a while he calmed down and sighed, before he got serious and turned to face the river. He should probably get across the river from here, or at least near it anyway. He closed his eyes, calm his mind and focused on the ball and keeping it intact while moving around at the same time. He placed both his foot up and the ball began to move. It goed very slowly at first, but after a while it began to pick up speed. Faster and faster it goes, but in a circle. He still isn't used to moving it, and it seemed to move with his concentration, and his mind was wondering. He felt like flying, or what he guessed to be flying. There was nothing under his feet except air, and he is moving around very fast. After going around in circle for several minutes, he began to get dizzy. He kept on spinning around until he almost fell unconscious, but before that the jutsu gave in and he fall backward, hitting the ground hard.

He stood back up right after he fall down and quickly performed the handseals and formed the air ball. After the ball appeared, he sat down upon it and waited for a few seconds before trying to move around. This time the ball move with ease and not spinning around in circle. After several minutes of fun, he decided to bring the test to another level and turned to face the pond. He took in a deep breath and let it out as he moved toward the pond. Half through and his speed was already up to twenty-five miles per hours. When he finally got to the pond his speed was around thirty to forty miles. He shut his eyes close just as the ball goes over the water, afraid that he would fine himself underwater soon, but instead he stay afloat and kept on going. He smiled brightly as he kept on speeding across the water, but midway through the pond the jutsu weaken and he found himself underwater moment later.

Sora swam back to shore with a brightly lit smile on his face that most of the time would be fake, but not this one. Even after hitting the water face first at around thirty miles per hour the thrill of going so fast still lingered around. He quickly ran back to the stack of scrolls and search through it until he found a book on Fuuton jutsu. He remembered his dad knowing a jutsu that used wind as a transportation and whenever he used it there was always a smile on his face and Sora want it, the wind surf.

As Sora sorted through the book the memories of his dad popped into his mind. He remembered how during every full moon his dad would used the jutsu to go around the little village, sing widely like a drunk man. The wind was strong at that time of the month in the village and his dad would always told him that one should use mother nature as a tool for fun. Now as he goes through the book he can feel that the wind is picking up and in a minute or two it would be very strong.

He found the jutsu in the middle of the book. "Wind Surf." He read out loud and smiled as the image of himself surfing through the air as though it is a large wave. He went surfing many times before and loved the thrill that it brought with it. Quickly, he skim through the jutsu, memorizing what little details there is on that topic. It seemed so easy, but he knew from experience that nothing is easy, especially thing that seemed easy.

He stood up and let out a exciting sigh and performed the handseal, rabbit. He then channeled the chakra to his feet and focused it there. He held out his arms and feel the wind. The air around him feel like home. It brought with it the warms from a nearby household but at the same time the coldness of the land. After a while he can feel the different currents of the air. It was as he would come to describe it as the water of the sky. He closed his eyes to boost his concentration and seconds later he can slowly see the currents of more of feel it in his skin. He slowly mark out a big air current surrounded by many smaller currents and decided to use that one. After 20 seconds of studying the current he came to decided that it was the right one. Slowly and with concentration he picked up his feet and placed it down and where he though the current was. Instead of standing on a somewhat solid air he passed through the current. He let out a sighed and tried again.

[Sora Yanaro]

He was hopping for his first try to be somewhat of a little success, but since he failed he learned a lesson, a lesson that said, 'Shut up and do it again." With that in his mind he performed the handseal rabbit, and channeled the chakra into his feet. He focused the chakra there while searching for another current of air. He found another current of air next to his left feet. It was not so large nor it is small. Slowly, he picked up his feet and carefully placed it an inches from the top of the current before touching the current. This time his feet touch solid ground, or more of an airy and soft ground that seemed to move by itself. The air felt like water, waves that kept on moving and never stop. A smile lit up on his face as he put all his weight on his right foot, the one on top of the air current, and it didn't break. Slowly he adjusted his whole body and weight on top of the air current and smiled as he stood on top of the air. He was only several inches above the ground but the thrill is already settling in.

He waited and waited, making sure that he wasn't imagining all of it before testing the jutsu. Slowly he moved the chakra to the back of his foot, and at the same time he can feel his body moving forward. He knew that the jutsu is working because as he moved the last of the chakra to the back he was already propelled through the air and at a large tree. He estimated that his body was traveling at around forty miles per hour and if he hit the tree at that speed, then it would be very painful, painful and bone breaking. So he did the first thing he can think of, he jumped off. Instead of moving the chakra to the left side of his foot and move away, he jumped off. Later on he wondered why did he do that? A smart person wouldn't break off the jutsu and jumped away because even if he jumped away he would still be going forty miles per hour, but this time he would go with no way of moving or stopping.

His body flew through the air like a log of wood, unable to move in midair and follow the same course until gravity finally hit or he hit some tree, the tree came first. Sora have a thin body with a lot of muscles but really the only thing between his skin and bones are one or two inches of meat and nothing else. So when he hit the tree at the speed of forty mph, it hurt really bad. Before he hit it though, he quickly performed the handseals horse then serpent and formed the ball of air in front of him, acting as a cushion between the tree and himself. Etama saved his life for it soften the impact and instead of coming out of it barely alive, he got out with his life intact, and all his bone, unbroken. He fell to the ground and lied there, waiting for the pain to go away, and the thrill to calm down.

He got up several minutes later and tried the jutsu again. He performed the handseal rabbit, and channeled the chakra to his feet and looked for a current. After he found one, he slowly placed both his feet and all his weight on it and stared straight ahead, at the lake. He learned the lesson that if he hit anything he would prefer it to be the water, or mud, a lot of mud, but since there really not much mud around he would have to do with water. He sent the chakra to the back of his feet and slowly moved through the air toward the lake. He had somewhat of a control over his speed, but not much. He slowly passed over the pond at first, then he lost control and found himself flying through the air at twenty or thirty miles mph and is aiming for the water. He raised his arm in front of his face, protecting from the water that he knew would hit him fast and hard.

With his unbroken body Sora swam back to shore with a smile. He loved the thrill that the pain brought with it. He loved the thrill of surfing through the air uncontrolled. He loved the feeling of being able to fly, or close to it. Even though it pained him so much each time he tried it, he would not quit until he mastered the move and flew through the air, or surf through the air. With determination he stood back up and stared at the lake as he performed the handseal rabbit, and sent the chakra to his feet. He then searched around for a current and when he finally found one he planted both his feet and his whole weight on it. Slowly and with great concentration he sent the chakra to the back of his feet and this time, with more control than the last he surfed through the air.

At first it was like the last time he tried with barely any control, but this time after a while of slowly surfing through the air he began to get use to it and was able to carefully controlled the speed. He sent a small amount of chakra to the back of his feet and felt his body speed up a little. He sent little by little amount of chakra to the back and smiled as he finally gotten used to the speed.

After that, he learned how to stop when going really fast. He learned that by sending the right amount of chakra to the front of his feet he was able to slow himself down and if he sent the same amount of chakra to the front as he did to the back his speed would not change and it he sent more to the front then the back then he would slowly slowed down until he came to a complete stop.

With that knowledge in mind he tested it out. Sending a large amount of chakra to the back of his feet he propelled forward, speeding up as he go. In seconds he was already up to forty mph. He waited for several seconds, enjoying the flight before pulling the chakra from the back of his feet to the front and a little more from the middle. The instance he did that he found himself quickly stopped in midair, it was like hitting a wall.

He loved the jutsu. It was better than the Etama. He kept on moving around with it, but as he moved around he still felt something is missing. After a while he found out what it was. He had only been moving forward and backward, and not side way. He tried doing it, but found out that he can move side way, but only when he is at a complete stop can he do it. He scratched his head and think for a second and tried something else. Letting go of the jutsu without thinking he found himself hitting the water and sinking down. He swam up and back toward shore where he lied down and rest. He was tired and he can't move anymore. The day was ending anyway so he decided to sleep for now and tried out the jutsu again tomorrow.

The night was short and the wind kept on blowing nonstop. Sora woke up as a tree branch broke and fell down above him. He rolled side way, barely dodged it. It seems as though mother nature doesn't like him using her like that. He stood up and look around and came to a conclusion that either some big monster has barged through the area, or mother nature had her period. Everywhere he looked it seems as though a battle had occurred there. Rocks and tree branches was everywhere. There are holes and craters here and there. Something had happened and he just missed it. He sat down and let out a sigh, before stood back up and stretched, and then quickly performed the handseal rabbit. He sent the chakra to the sole of his foot and found an air current. Then, he planted both his foot and his whole body weight on the current and began to move around. After a minute or two, he stopped midair and closed his eyes. He then placed his foot together and on one feet he pushed the chakra to the back of his feet while on the other he pushed it to the right side. Just as he imagined it he began to move diagonally. The feeling of accomplishment was great. With a bright grin on his face he began to moved around freely.

He loved the jutsu, and he love the land. Now, after what seem like a small storm he loved it more. To the person who knew him they would say that this can be used to describe him, the dead and unwanted man. He moved around, surveying the area. The tree around the pond seem to be uprooted by either small tornado, or giant picked it up.

After several minutes of studying the land, it seems as though most of the damage was around the area he slept, but none on him or his possession. Was mother nature toying with him, or was someone toying with him? He let the question hung there in silence as his jutsu broke and he fell face first into the mud near the pond. His mouth was open when he fell so on that day, he finally tasted mud.

The mud tasted weir, but since he never tasted mud before he really doesn't know that it tasted weir. Sora stood back up and brushed the mud from his face. He sighed and closed his eyes, and calm himself. His feeling was everywhere. He felt happy, and yet there was anger in his heart. He felt the thrill, but under it are sadness. He loved the pond and the land around it even more now, but somewhere deep underneath it he hated the changes. He sighed once more as he forced all of that emotion back into the corner of his heart and opened his eyes. He performed the handseal rabbit, and channeled the chakra to his feet. Then, quickly he looked for a current and planted his whole body on top of it. Then, slowly he began to moved out.

The air felt different and he can tell. Yesterday wind was soft and calm. Today wind was rough and wild. It took most of his concentration just to stay on top of the current and not fall off. He wondered why this was happening. It wasn't a storm for if it is, then everyone would know of it. He waited and waited until the air calmed down and he can slowly gained back control.

Carefully, he began to move around. He sent a fair amount of chakra to the back of his feet, pushing himself forward slowly. The speed was not as fast as he would like, but Sora decided that today, it would be better if he went slowly instead of fast. Slowly, he began to move sideway, then diagonal, and finally, he tried to move up and down. Moving up and down seem to be easier if he was moving backward or forward. Several minutes passed before he even began to feel tired. He decided that it is it for now so he stopped near the last remaining untouched rock and break the jutsu, and sat down.

[Sora Yanaro]

The past seem to come back to life as the image of the dead and abandoned village, once his home, pop into his mind. That day the wind was cold and silence, contained nothing but death and loneliness, and bloodlust. Something or someone was able to destroy the village in the mid of night, a village fulled of once great ninja. The image sent a chill down his spine. If he was ever to go against that someone or something, he would need to be able to run away as quickly as he can. With that thought in his head he stood back up and performed the handseal rabbit, and channeled chakra to his feet. Then, he closed his eyes and searched for a nearby current and stepped onto it. After adjusting his body and weight on the current, he sent the chakra to the back of his feet and slowly move forward.

As each second passed he sent more and more chakra to the back of his feet, and with each passing second he picked up speed. After only thirty seconds, he was already flying through the air like an arrow fired from a crossbow. He flew across the pond, several inches from the surface. If he had looked down he would have seen that the water underneath him was spreading apart as he go. As he flew pass the pond and toward a large tree he turned his body sideway and sent all the chakra to the left side of his foot, the side facing the tree. His body slowly came to a stop just two inches from the tree. He smiled and speed off again, back to the other side of the pond, where his stuff should be.
