It was morning again, his favorite part of the day. The sky was painted with a symphony of colors, amber, cyan, and shades of yellow. Droplets of water collected on the blades of grass throughout the path he was walking on. The light crackles of leaves and branches snapping accompanied his footsteps as he navigated towards his own secluded training spot.

Minoru looked outwards at the small lake hidden in his family’s estate. The daylight reflected off of the surface of the water, mimicking the colors in the sky. He knelt down by the side of the water and dipped his fingers within the water. “Perfect,” he muttered, flicking away the remaining drops of water on his hand.
Other than the sporadic shifting of bushes from the multitude of animals running through it, nothing would disturb him.

Or so he thought…

“Minoru~” shouted a voice, cutting through his precious silence like a banshee’s shriek. A girl, who appeared to be the same age as him ran into view. She was about a few inches shorter than him, long blond hair reaching down to the middle of her back. Her eyes were a light green and her complexion was pale. Her outfit was similar to the standard issues; however, it was accessorized with a multitude of multicolor ribbons.

“Yuki… What are you doing here…” he replied in an exasperated tone.

“What are you up to?” she asked, standing next him.

“Training, now leave me alone. I can’t concentrate with all this noise around me!” replied the brightly dressed man, kneeling down next to the water once.

“Training, eh? Sounds fun! I’ll watch and give you some of my wise words of advice,” she said, stepping back a few feet.

“I assume no matter what I say, you won’t leave?” replied Minoru in a frustrated tenor.

“You know me far too well…”

With another exasperated sigh, he turned back and stared at the lake in front of him. He reached into his pack and pulled out a small book detailing a few techniques. He looked up the technique detailing the use of chakra to act as a sort of underwater respirator. “Ohhh… I’ve seen that one,” chirped Yuki, reading over Minoru’s shoulder.

“Ahem…” he cleared his throat, signaling for her to step back. Diving into the water, he shifted his weight towards his feet, causing him to sink to the base. Simultaneously, he focused his chakra into the base of his lungs and through his esophagus, cycling it through his body. He stood quietly timing himself in his mind.

One second… Ten Seconds… Twenty-four seconds… Thirty seconds…

His eyes wrenched open, as he attempted to take another breath. Water flew into his body. He swam back up to the surface once more, frantically treading the water. He coughed up water, attempting to clear his body.

“Harder than it looks, right?” chirped Yuki, waiting near the bank, “Think of it as an extra means of carrying oxygen through your body. By creating a system between your lungs and head, it ends up lowering the amount of oxygen needed as well as allowing your body to function like a fish’s gills.”

Of course. Leave it to the medic to know all about the human anatomy. After composing himself and getting rid of the shock, he dived deeper into the lake once more. A balance. A symmetry. A mechanic integration between all parts of his body.

One second… Ten seconds… Twenty-five seconds… Fifty Seconds… One minute… Four minutes… Ten…

He swam back up to the surface, coughing up water once more. “Seems like you’re getting the hang of it!” announced Yuki, laying on the bank and reading a book, “Though, I’ve seen people do this for a much longer time…”

“Well… thanks for the reassuring words,” he added sarcastically before pulling himself back onto the bank. Performing it to the maximum level would take work… A lot of it…

Suiton: Tottei No Jutsu (Water Release: Art of the Breakwater)
Rank: "D," "C," "B," "A," "S"
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: The user creates a wave of water in front of them to ward off techniques from the front.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: User must know the same level of this technique as the technique they wish to affect. For the user to block a Fire and Lightning techniques, the user must know this technique one rank above the technique they wish to block.
Description: The user performs this technique right after they perform the handseals for it, the user will whip their hands up into the air and have them meet near the level of their head, creating a sort of "v" or wedge shape in the air. Once this is done, water will rise up from below the user to create this same shape. This is done just as a long or medium range technique is flying towards the user, this technique will cut the technique in half so that the two sides fall harmlessly on either side of the user. This technique works in steps, if the user wishes to cut a "D" level water technique, the user must know the "D" rank version if this technique, and so on.
Limit: Water Release

An hour passed, as Minoru waited for his body to recover from the shock of his previous training. During that time, Yuki stood back up and grabbed her things. “If this is all you’re going to do, then I’ll be going… I don’t have the patience to sit here for who knows how long,” she chuckled, before standing up.

He watched her leave before standing up once more. Thank god… maybe now I can actually get something done. Reaching into his bag he pulled out the book of techniques. Frowning, he attempted to decipher the mass of confusing text that the book detailed. The pages were filled with text so thick that it would make a dictionary blush.

Closing his eyes and flipping through, Minoru picked a technique at random once more. A wave? He thought, rereading the information once more. Well, I guess there’s no harm in trying… I think… He walked over to the lakeshore and faced the opposite direction. “Suiton, Senpabana No Jutsu?” he question after performing the necessary hand seals.

And the exciting result is! he mused, while pooling in a small portion of chakra into his ability. A flow of water collected from the lake behind him and appeared at his feet. Flicking his hands into the air, the water slowly began to form below him… It splashed upwards slightly, before falling back onto the ground. Great… It’s nothing more than a glorified puddle…

Minoru paused for a moment, before reading the technique once more. I guess I have to be more exact with my movements in order to get any semblance of a result… Flicking his hands downwards, he repeated the necessary steps once more. He flicked his hands up, forcing them to cleave upwards like a blade’s edge. Simultaneously, he pooled in more chakra, amplifying the original results.

The water splashed up, much more forcefully than the first. In fact, the opposite occurred. The water rose into the air, forming the wanted shape. However, the edges began to ripple as all tension was lost due to the sudden influx of energy. The water fell back down, dampening the ground around him even further, as well as the clothes he was wearing.

Alright, so strong enough to keep it stable… but not too much or else it’ll break… Wow… why do I have a feeling this sounds like an old saying or something… he mused, before reading the page of the book once more. Striking and equilibrium with his chakra flow and his motions, Minoru repeated the actions. The wedge shape appeared upwards, standing safely for a few minutes. He released the jutsu before falling on the ground. Really? This makes me tired?

What’ll happen when I actually have to fight…?
