The din of the club was faint but strong enough to annoy me all the same. In a moment of annoyance I drew forth my flute. If they wished to irk me with their pointless chatter I would do my part to let my music over power the lot of them. Call it spite, I would probably agree. I was still in the learning portion when it came to the Mateki skills and that was what I would do in the club until someone attempted to force me to do otherwise. They wouldn’t win of course but it would entertain me temporarily like so many things did.

Without much more thought the cool metal would press against my warm lips, creating a small but pleasant shock through my body. With my hands placed gently over the flute I would begin to gather my chakra as I exhaled into the metal instrument. A single note sang out through the room as I let my chakra press into the flute. This was the tricky part of the technique as far as I was concerned. Trying to imbue your chakra into the sound and air that was constantly moving wasn’t the most rudimentary of skills and not only that but I had to mold the chakra just so.

I let the chakra press into the metal confines of the Mateki and continued to play the one piercing note. My eyes closed as I let the chakra flow, catching on the sound waves and imbuing them with my power. Something about the note was awkward, a bad sign when it came to something that required this amount of precision. I called more chakra, focusing more intently on the correct molding of the mystical energy so as to drive that strange underlying feeling from my technique. More energy would flow into the flute and rest inside the metal workings, waiting to latch onto the unsuspecting sound waves and create what needed to be created.

The note rang out in the depths of the club with a piercing whistle. The note was neither pleasant nor unpleasant it was something not of this world. I would press more chakra into the note, holding the sound as long as I could without ever wavering from the difficult act of focusing my chakra just so. After a few moments the note began to waver, requiring more concentration and more chakra to hold it at the crux of its power. I let the note end and took a deep breath, filling my lungs with the wonderful air I couldn’t quite get enough off while playing. I would try again though, just in case.

The note came more easily this time. The concentration needed was easier to grasp this time around. I could tell I was becoming more familiar with the skills needed to execute the techniques that would finally allow me to use my Mateki to its full extent. I lowered the flute once more as I looked at the metallic object and smiled. I had so much to learn and this would be an excellent key to unlocking new power. I was getting closer every day but I couldn’t let other things be forgotten in exchange for this rather annoying set of techniques that I had to train in order to do anything.

Special: ---
Drawback: During this no other jutsu can be done with any of the used Halo.

If the Halo hit something, a massive amount pressure will be released of them with three times the strength of a punch with the user’s strength. If the user hits something, their fist will not make contact with the object hit. One does not have to throw a punch for this to work. Merely placing it againsts something has the same effect.

I was weary of all this training. All useful but none of it enjoyable. I was trying to keep my horizons wide however so as not to loose interest in training as a whole. By never training much of the same thing at a time I found myself slightly more inclined to continue. I had recently left the sound behind in order to pursue more interesting techniques in the clan of halos. I did not boast the sheer amount of halos as some did but I would get there in good time. For now I wanted to learn to use the halos I had before striving to gain more.

I let a single halo come forth, the entirety of it measuring just over three feet in diameter. The first part of the technique in question was no doubt the most annoying. I had to take this existing creation and compress it into something roughly the size of my fist. Slowly I closed my eyes, breathing deeply and focusing my concentration on the halo. I pressed with my mind, picturing the glowing disk growing smaller and smaller, yet without loosing any of the energy it held, strengthening it if anything. I watched as the disk shrunk, amazed with my own aptness and speed with an unknown technique.

Oh what foolish thoughts. I had lost control over my creation, it continued to diminish on its own before vanishing into nothing. With a flicker of annoyance I would conjure a halo to replace the recently vanished counterpart. More control was needed, so I wasn’t the best when it came to holding back, that would change though. I would begin to compress the halo once more, thinking in small and precise movements in my hopes to gain the intended result of the technique. The disk shivered for a long moment before shrinking down, loosing perhaps a foot in size. It was an improvement but not quite the result I hoped for.

More precision and concentration would be put forth as I continued to compress the chakra creation. Another foot disappeared from the diameter, leaving me with something much smaller than my original product but still not small enough. It needed to be the size of my fist, give or take. I let any stray thoughts empty from my mind before striving to compress the halo once again. This is where the utmost control was important. Without the control I would cause the halo to vanish once again and I couldn’t let that happen. Failure was unacceptable, success was the only option.

The disk snapped to the desired size before my very eyes. Success was here at last, not that I was surprised, I have never failed after all, not when I’ve ever tried. With that accomplished however there was still another half of a battle to be won. I had no doubt that I would succeed all the same; it just required the right mind set and concentration. I was rather convinced that I would be able to execute the entire technique in its proper form within the hour. There was no use waiting to find out however, I would make my attempt now and time would tell.
