My gaze lingered on him for but a moment. He remained still, as if awaiting a reply, but this was not the time for words – my survival was at a hindrance, a block placed into this path to rob me of the free life which had been prohibited from me for so long. The iron sands slithered from the grounds towards the newcomer, lashing out at him. Caught by surprise, he had little time to reply, the force of connection sending him tumbling backwards. The maiden, nay, that cannot be used at this time. I must grow constantly, and for that I will attempt something new. The formation of a weapon through the use of Satetsu.

As the man regained his composure, my hands begun their dance, the formation of handseals beginning, the movement of the fingers but a rough imitation of the symbols they represent. The formation of a weapon would requires a combination of three factors: the polarity field, the ability of the Masamune to transmute Satetsu, and application of chakra. The sands rose from my gourd, the sands shifting together closely, but a moment from slidifying. Had I done this correctly? It has begun to morph, to harden, has it not?

The thug began his approach and the sands before me fell to the ground, the tiny metallic particles rustling as they bend the grass. Improperly performed, and now another problem arose, the assailant approaching closely. Quickly I backed away as the grizzled warrior approached, the sands behind him, where they had rested after my initial push, rose to embrace his left leg, solidifying, holding him in place for but a mere moment, giving me the opportunity to attempt this technique once again.

As the hands begun the formation of seals, chakra poured out from my figure into the iron sands. The polarity field expanded, embracing not only the area around me, but an area of seventy meters, granting me an enhanced control. As the satetsu hovered in the air before me, one handseal followed another, the chakra intermingling with the iron, revering the poles in the multitude of grains, the tiny sand attracting one another. But no weapon was formed. Rather, a thick, heavy ball. Yet another failure.

The thug roared, and with a final jerk of the left leg tore free He was thirty meters away, giving me plenty of time to attempt the technique one additional time. The chakra within this massive figure flooded through this shape, raiton and doton chakra intermingling to create the polarity field, an intrinsic ability of the Masamune. The field expanded, covering both the sands before me and the thug. But the latter was of less worry – now I must focus on this sand, and the formation of a sword, an elementary, but nonetheless important weapon.

As my hands danced to form the seals, the chakra left the tenketsu, and my body, and flowed into the very sands before me. As they rose into the air I visualized the formation of a shape – a lengthy blade as I required- but merely to fantasize will be of nothing. I used that mental image to arrange the floating satetsu to form into the shape of a four foot hiltless blade. The bottom was rounded, to allow for strong grip, but the sharpened part was extensively thin and edged, as any sword should be. But in this state the weapon of iron sand would merely fall apart.

As it remained in that shape I again made use of the iron sand transmutation in a similar way as before. The poles of the two sides, left and right, were altered sporadically to allow the satetsu to cling together, slodifiying, to form a sword not so different from an actual one. The process was quick to perform, as it required no more than the ability Masamune are taught during childhood. As the poles were altered, to north and south on the opposite sides, the blade was now prepared for use.

Controlling it now was quite similar to controlling the iron sand – both use the polarity field, but the movement here was slightly different, as this was a blade rather than a multitude of grains. As the thug approached, through the use of the polarity field the blade hovered before my figure, shooting out quickly towards the assailant. His furious, bloodshot gaze was focused on me and he did not catch that glimmer of an approaching blade under the moonlit skies. The tip tore into his belly, blood gushing from the wound.[/ul][/font]

Ichiren Raikou (Chain Lightning)
Rank: B rank
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Release a devastating lightning stream that can chain up to the maximum of three opponents.
Special: Handseals
Drawback: Must be standing in place to perform.
Description: After forming the last handseal, a stream of lightning will release in front of the user's hand and chain through the user's targets. The lightning is weaker after it chain through every opponent, the first opponent receive the full damage(B rank damage)of it, the lightning is still quite powerful when it touches the second opponent(C rank damage) but is not really powerful when it hits the last target(D rank damage). The lightning travels at the speed of 45 meter/second so it is quite hard to avoid. The first target must be in front of the user and the angle that ordinary human eyes can see when the lightning is released. The lightning can travel up to 30 meters so the distance between the user and the first target, the distance between the first target and the second target and the distance between the second target and the third target must be within the traveling range of the lightning for the jutsu to work. This jutsu has a radius of 40 meters, with the user being the mid-point of it; the lightning will not make it out of the radius. The user must hold the last handseal for the duration of the jutsu.
Limit: Lightning Release Skill (Raiton no Jutsu)

[/i] in the heat of battle. The second failing was that in gathering an amount of chakra so massive that this shape cannot control it without proper preparations. Should the latter of those mistakes continue, a wretched fate may occur in an unwanted backfiring, as the raiton chars my body as it collapses onto the ground, writhing in pain.

Rather than immediately beginning with the formation of handseals, I allowed the chakra to flow through my body carefully, bathe each and every limb so that a feel can be gained, an understanding of what is excessive. By my previous experimentation I had begun to understand what exactly I must avoid – simply opening the tenketsu and hoping for a success. That is no different from blindly wailing at an opponent in hopes of connecting with a strike. That is foolish, and I must not let myself hope to succeed through a mere act of chance.

It took some moments until I felt comfortable enough to begin the hand seals, one following another. With the new found comfort, slowly the chakra was ordered to vibrate viciously, but rather than doing so as a whole, I visualized the separate muscles at first – biceps and triceps. In my minds eye, a blue glow was visualized, brightening and dimming to symbolize the required high frequency vibration for the natural transformation to occur. But that was not the last step, for now that raiton must be shaped.

And here again I would use visualization, but rather than focusing on that blue glow, I imagined a ball of lighting slowly becoming compressed to form in a thin, lengthy bolt equivalent to the size of my arms in length. On this image I remained for some time before pushing out my right arm towards the tree I had used as target practice previously. A thin bolt of lighting shot forth, connecting with the tree, charring the bark to a rather deep black. This step was a success. Excellent.

"Satetsu No Bushin" (Iron Sand clones)
Rank: C-ranked, (B-ranked supplement)
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows the user to create Clones from Iron sand ("Satetsu")
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: Very poor choice in in terms of stealth as the clones movements tend to generate noise in certain areas. Slow moving (See more below)
Description: By performing a few handseals, the user may command his or her Iron sand to solidify and form clones. The Iron sand clones resemble the user in ever form and aspect, but are made of Iron sand. Due to their solid nature, these clones may perform simply punches and kicks and may attack and defend in accordance to the user. These clones have a high tolerance to physical damage and may with stand "2 C-ranked" Taijutsu based attack. However, these clones have a low tolerance to Ninjutsu based attacks and may only withstand "1 D-ranked" attack. Once destroyed, these clones revert to a normal powdered state. In addition to low tolerance, these clones move much slower then normal, reaching top speed that are .15 (15%) slower then the user base speed. When first learned, the user may create and control up to 3 Iron sand clones at a time. If the user wishes to gain additional Clones, they must merely undergo additional "C-ranked" training within Clones creation and gain One additional Iron sand clone. (Both in C and B ranked versions of this technique). Upon learning the B-ranked version of this technique, the user is able to command their Iron sand Clones with only a reduced speed of .10 (10% ). In addition, these clones gain a small some of defense as well. The clones may withstand "3 C-ranked Taijutsu based attacks and may withstand 3 D-ranked" Ninjutsu based attacks.
Limit: Masamune Clan. "C-ranked" control in both "Polarity Field" and "Iron sand Transmutation". The B-ranked version of this technique requires the C-ranked first.

[/i], those words were spoken through thoughts directed more towards the clone than myself. As the quick phrase was said, I stared towards a nearby tree. The bunshins legs began to move, carrying it towards that tree. Unfortunately the tempo at which it propelled itself was rather slow, but no different can be expected from a creation of iron.
