Chakura Kyuin Jutsu (Chakra Absorption Technique)
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: The user is capable of draining a small piece of the opponent's chakra by pushing their arm off, making sure that they are close to the opponent.
Special: ---
Drawback: The user must have some sort of ground, or must be within close range of the opponent. What this means is that they must be at least couple of feet from the opponent in a maximum range, or they must have hold of something that is pure chakra such as chakra strings.
Description: The user focuses their own chakra within their body and pushes it towards their very hands. As the user does so they create a somewhat "vacuum" like effect within their own chakra along the palm of their hands. What this occurs is when the user grows close to the opponent and does a punching like motion the opponent will feel a small amount of chakra escape from their very own body and be used towards the user's own special like force. This can be used to further the strength of the user with their own chakra supply.
Limit: Anyone is capable of learning this technique.

Othello arrived in the City of Aramis after a few days travel. They were harsh and food was scarce but he needed to be here more then ever. The last time he visited was directly after his banishment, the monks welcomed him in like family and took care of his needs but he couldnt stay, he felt like a burden. During his last visit he heard some of the monks beginning to plan out a way of instructing Othello in there ways and customs, that would also include teachings of how they protected there home. Many of the people in the city were pacifists; pacifists isnt that a funny word. To mean non violent yet have the word fist in it. Othello's mind was already getting distracted as it always has when he was in a place of comfort. Reaching the plateau Othello was greeted by one of the old monks, they knew eachother well. This was the old man that helped Othello get into the cloud village during the time he had difficulty making out the cobblestones with his premature hearing abilities.



The old monk was meditating just like the day Othello and him crossed paths. Sitting next to him Othello sat in the same position and meditated like he was taught oh so long ago. A few minutes of quiet and peace was broken when the old monk moved his hand as fast as lightning towards Othello's face. Years ago Othello wouldnt have been able to stop this oncoming attack but with ease othello's hand stopped it and gently caught the old monks hand in his own. "I see you have learned to master your own abilities young one" Othello was surprised he was even remembered, he tried to hold back tears. He was a child again as he put his head down and nodded softely. The old man laughed and after a few minutes of catching up led Othello towards the inner sanctum of the city. Passing huge statues and monoliths gave Othello a view on how grand this place actually was. Passing a few other monks Othello realized that his mentor was the grandest of all of them. He was there leader just like Othello was to his village long ago. Some monks actually were training with each other but it was odd. For a moment Othello thought his sonic vision was off.

Towards the center of the temple what looked like a female monk was fighting a male. They weren't using there fists when they struck each other, nor were they using there legs. They were open palmed and hitting past each other, a few inches from there own bodies. The fight continued for a few minutes but from what Othello could tell, the man she was fighting was starting to tire out. His sweat was accumulating on his brow and his breath was become hoarse. A few more minutes and he was done for, but how could this be possible if both monks weren't aiming at the others body to do physical harm. In mere moments the monk was on the floor heaving and looking weak. The others raised him to his feet and brought him to the side. Othello was quite astonished on what just transpired and still very confused. The girl fixed her garments as she walked towards the old monk and Othello. She spoke with the old monk first "So this is the boy you trained father?". Othello was astounded, he never remembered the old man having a daughter before, but of course he never stayed for long.

"Yes, and Othello this is my daughter Sonya, she was born after you left to join the Cloud Village. I'm sorry you couldn't meet her before but when last you were here she was on a expedition for our medicinal order. She has become a skilled guardian in our ways of defense; she will help you further for I am too old to keep up with you young ones. Please take care of him Sonya he means to me just like a son." Before Othello noticed the old monk was walking down a passage leaving the two alone. Sonya was noticing something odd about Othello. While she was watching him during the fight, she noticed that he didn't move his eyes while she moved. She could have accounted this to his disinterest in what was happening but even so the other monks in the monastery would ogle at her body and fantasize. Why didn't he?

She looked closer at him, her face was very close to his and what she realized astonished her. "Your...blind!" She backed away quickly, a bit to quick so that it may have been interpreted as a sign of disgust. Well why he didn't look at them fighting made sense. Othello raised his eyebrow but laughed, it had been a long time since he had that reaction from someone. To notice he was blind showed how good her senses were. "Dont be too surprised" Othello chuckled "And no worries I still see you in a way. By the way what did the old man mean by you teaching me?". Yes it was a bit rushed but it was annoying not to know what was going to happen. Also he hope that he could see how this girl looked in more detail. Sonic waves only go so far.

Sonya apologized for what she did and continued "Well the best we could do now is practice" She got into her fighting position. Othello complied and got into his which was usually just standing stationary. Her stance was perfect, nearly no weak spots and as sturdy as the mountain they were on.



She attacked without hesitation, gliding the wind. She thrust her hands out towards Othello's body with the speed of lightning. Othello easily avoided these attacks, if it wasnt for his fighting experience Othello would have been that the receiving end of a lot of hurt. Parrying her hands away were easy, but as he did this she was smirking, why?... She kept striking the same way, neither backing away nor getting closer to hitting him. What was her game, what was she trying to accomplish? Remembering back to Sonya's recent fight Othello realized the longer this continued something would happen and he would begin to feel the same weariness that the monk had. As they fought Othello started to feel a bit uneasy, as if he was running for a long time.

Jumping away Othello spoke "What was that?" he said astonishgly. Sonya also backed grinning to herself. "I'm surprised you noticed so quickly, it usually takes novices a few fights to even feel it. I suppose you also notice that I'm not trying to hit you as well. What I'm trying to do is a little technique that enables me to zap away and absorb your chakra and add it to my reserves. Impressive huh? Maybe you should give it a try? Oh wait you dont know how to!" She was mocking him. Othello got ready for she was already running at him to attack again but this time he would attack fire with fire. Channeling his chakra towards his hands Othello parried the attacks once again but also attacked her in the same way she did him. How could the chakra be extrapalated from this girl?

Limit: Must Have sound release.

For hours Othello trained with Sonya and after there sparring session had ended Othello was able to copy exactly what she had done to the monks before. His knack at learning jutsu surprised Sonya, even impressed her you might say, he was sure to see her again. Following his masters footsteps Othello reached a cavern on the nearest mountain. It reminded him of the mountain he had once kept himself cooped up in. The sounds of his footsteps echoed off the walls and stalagmites in here. Images of the entire tunnel system flashed in his mind. In the deepest recesses of the cave there were monsters. Huge fearsome beasts that were the nightmares of all children.




Othello couldnt let these monstrosities escape to wreck havoc on his home but how could they be taken out all at once? Going through his mind and hiding behind a pillar Othello worked out which jutsu would be best. It needed to be large enough to encompass the entire cavern as well as powerful enough to blow the enemies into oblivion. Channeling chakra into his vocal chords was easy enough, his capacity for sound was unrivaled. But being able to make it travel that far and destroy that many was going to be tough. The chakra swelled inside of him waiting to burst from within. Before concentrating it Othello slowly released it in small exhales so that he wouldn't make a noise to attract the monsters attention.

Othello practiced some breathing exercises, the time needed it. With every inhale he would mold it with chakra before exhaling it so that he could get the hang of it, it really wasnt that hard but at a moment like this he couldnt make any mistakes. He was only in this position for a few minutes when he realized he would have to make handseals to finish this jutsu. He would save that towards the end when he actually would use it, hopefully it wouldnt backfire.

Without notice a child had entered the cave and was calling out for Othello, he was trying to tell him that dinner was ready, the monsters heard that call instead and off they went charging. Stringing together some hand seals Othello leaped out from behind the spike and yelled as loud as he could, it did not come out anything at all like he expected. It was like a blade cutting through his vision, hitting the few monsters on the left pushing them back into the cavern. The sound wave pierced through there flesh straight into there bones. The sound wave didnt just go through but once inside the enemies body it started to bounce around, similar to the way sound bounces around cave walls. What in the world did Othello create?

Still the monsters came, more angry then before for the ones that did not get hit by the attack were angered by the loud noises they weren't accustomed to. Like a pack of wild bison they marched. Othello told the boy to run and to leave this to him, while saying this he was storying chakra for another attack, the same but only bigger, grander. Some of the monsters were small and got to Othello first, smacking them away without letting go of his breath was hard, especially since when you breath out it could decimate not only the monsters but the cave walls surrounding them.

"Oto Dangan" (Sound Bullet)
Rank: C-B rank
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Small invisible sound waves pass through opponents body, but harms body on the molecular level.
Special: Horse, Monkey, Bird, Ox, (Hold) Tiger
Drawback: Some armors may greatly reduce the effectiveness of this jutsus. Other (large) sources of sound may cancel out this jutsu. Also, the users hands at the same time cannot be used for anything else (explained below). Visible to those with chakra seeing powers.
Special: Horse, Monkey, Bird, Ox, (Hold) Tiger
Description: While holding the the tiger handseal, chakra begins to flow between the small gap left by the two hands being held together. The user proceeds to position the handseal held over his/her own mouth now. All sounds emitted through the handseal are converted and charged by the chakra, to become far more deadlier. The chakra compresses, and alters the sounds wave lengths, forcing them into a smaller area (roughly the size of senbon needles). The entire process occurs within fractions of a sec and the user is able to create multiple sound bullets. The sound bullet itself travels at amazing speeds and are extremely hard to dodge.

-Upon hitting the opponent, the sound bullets travel right through the human body. Once inside the body, the sound bullet clashes against every cell in the vicinity, vibrating them violently. Water retained in the cell vibrate so much, that they explode upon themselves. To the opponent, he/she will suffer searing pain in the area where the sound bullet hits.
-This jutsu is best used on open extremities of the opponent
C-Rank:The user is able to create three sound bullets that travel a maximum of 40 meter
B-Rank:The user is able to create 6 sound bullets that travel a maximum of 60 meter

Finally back in the village Othello knew it was time to get one more bit of training before he would have to visit his friends, those that were still alive that is. thinking back on his battles and other jutsu it came as a surprise to him that he never developed his power over sound thouroghly. The basic step was creating the sound and of course most sound anyone creates comes from there vocal cords. Sitting down on a stump and adjusting his staff Othello cupped his hands and whisteled so that it could hit the cup. Through his hearing Othello "saw" the waves of sound exit out of his mouth ring after ring. The further it traveled the wider the the sound spread as well as fade. Maybe there was a way to harness the waves before they disappated. Pondering there for a good amount Othello knew there had to be some kind of way to concentrate his energy. Pushing his lips together as if it was a straw Othello shot out a high pitched sound. The sound wave ricocheted off his hands and it hurt more then he expects.

It reminded him of another sound technique he learned within the caves days before when he saved that child from being slaughtered. Trying to relieve the pain Othello layed down and rested for quite a while. Upon waking up a few hours later the pain in his hands was almost non existent. Going back into his training Othello generated his chakra from within his stomach, concentrating each chakra cell so that it was infused with the sound vibrations from his lungs. Perhaps if Othello could shape the sound into some kind of shape they could go further and actually create more pain then what he did to himself, in hindsight that wasnt a good idea to try his jutsu on himself.

Getting up from his place of rest Othello went across the way while still generating and producing the chakra needed for the sound jutsu. Finding a nearby lake was just the shot of luck he needed. Forming some of the last chakra Othello performed the handseals needed while holding the last one in front of him and fired off the jutsu. In his sonar vision Othello saw what was expelled as clear as someone would see a rock thrown at them. Three needles made of sound expelled from his mouth and were traveling across the lake as such great speeds Othello was almost unable to keep up with them. The jutsu was so concentrated the shape the sound took was thinner then a rock and as elongated as a needle. The sound produced by the jutsu was akin to a high pitched sonic boom.

Othello wondered how other people would see this jutsu coming at them when it dawned on him that they wouldn't. They would get hit with something that was invisible and never know where it came from unless they saw Othello committing to the handseals. This would be perfect, it seemed like a good assassination technique or at least one that would be well to add to his library. He had to continue so concentrating again Othello picked a target. It was a fish in the lake, and hopefully when hit with the jutsu it wouldnt suffer much and hopefully die on impact. Holding the last seal and bringing his hands towards his lips Othello shaped the sound into the senbon like needles and fired off the jutsu once again.

What happened next was unexpected and quite frankly surprised Othello. Upon the jutsu hitting the water the sound slowed down dramatically, almost to a halt. After traveling a few feet the sound dissipated into the water in wide rings of sound fading into nothingness. Sound when hitting water seem to nullify the jutsu. That was something to note down if ever Othello fought with someone that used sound as a weapon as he did. Perhaps in conjuction with another jutsu sound bullet could be such a devastating weapon that almost no one could withstand its power, even though it is just a c ranked jutsu. The largest battles could be won with just the smallest jutsu.

Kirigakure no Jutsu (Hidden Mist Skill)
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: A Skill where a user uses the water around them to create a massive mist to fill around the user.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: ---
Description: A skill which creates a very dense fog that descreases the surrounding visibility to near zero. It produces an environment perfect for a silent assassin who follows an opponent through sound. This mist can not be blown away by any type of Wind Jutsu.
Limit: Water Release

While still in the area around the lake Othello thought it most advisable to learn the jutsu he thought up earlier that would best utilize sound bullets potential. While looking at the water it dawned upon Othello that perhaps a skill that would obscure someones vision so that they wouldnt see the origin of the sound bullet would be best. Something that would mask his presence, why not mist? Mist was thick enough from what he heard the others in the village say to disguise a large amount of people from being discovered by soldiers. Getting closer to the water Othello thought about the water, how easy it was to mold but harder it was to keep molded. The longer you had it that way the longer it would zap away at your chakra. If he kept the water in the air for long he wouldnt last well in a fight so perhaps there was something he could do about it. Concentrating on the small molecules of water Othello tried to seperate them one by one.

That wasnt such a good idea as each molecule Othello reached out with his chakra was so finite that taking them apart would take forever and not only that it took up a lot of energy. In only a few seconds Othello was gasping for air and sweating from his brow. The water fell back into the lake without even been changed in the least. What was he doing wrong, probably the theory he had come up with wasnt the right one. After a hour or so of rest Othello went back into the jutsu this time not concentrating on the the molecules inside but instead perhaps making the water explode would help. Vibrating the chakra from the inside of the water was easy enough and actually reminded Othello about that one time he saw someone do the rasengan, one of leafs most powerful jutsu. Though for him that wouldnt be advisable because it forces the user to get close to there opponent.

after a few minutes of concentrating on the jutsu Othello noticed the round bubble float above the water once again but this time it looked like something was struggling to get free, the bubble didnt burst nor did it turn into mist. It kept its shape yet also was very erratic. Letting his chakra go once again Othello rested upon the tree nearest him, as he did so he felt the vapor of water surround him and it must have been night time for the natural mist of the forest was around him. Perhaps this was a good time to learn from nature itself the wonders of what mist could do. Naturally Othello couldnt see it but he could feel it. As he wandered around through the mist he bumped into one of his old friends from long ago. They exchanged fond hello's and the man was willing to help Othello in this jutsu. Standing a bit apart Othello sensed where the man was easily but seeing the mist wasnt.

Othello's friend let him know how visible he was to his friend. Othello deduced that after a few feet his visibility was very low, that was good. After a few more hours of instruction from his friend it was sad to see him go but Othello had to get back to his training. Waiting until morning when the mist was gone was taking forever but finally it came. Othello concentrated his chakra again but this time he used small bubbles and tried to make them explode and not vibrate. He picked three bubbles and made them explode rather easily they created a good amount of mist but it didnt last long. So maybe increasing the heat inside the bubble would be easier. Putting heated up chakra inside the water almost instantaneously, the vapor came off the water easily and slowly became mist.

Othello tried it on a grander scale and as he exploded the water around him he felt the temperature drop just a tiny bit. More and more of the water exploded creating thicker and thicker mist around Othello till he was fully enveloped in it. It was funny how such a jutsu would help Othello in the long run, he would use this on any shinobi who would dare to attack any of the cloud shinobi. No one shall escape his "sight" sort of. Walking through the mist Othello sensed a robber near him trying to take a womans purse. The mist was still effective and the robber had no idea he was running straight to Othello. He bumped into him head on and fell over. Cursing towards nothingness the robber tried to get up until Othello's staff met his face. The jutsu worked exactly as planned. Othello went over to the woman and gave her back her purse, all she could see was his hand as he disappeared again into the mist.

Sensory Breathing
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: When manipulating the chakra along their nostrils as they breathe out the Shitakuma clan is capable of producing out a sensory system of sound waves that is higher then that of a human ear can pick up. This is known as the Shitakuma Echolocation inner system. What is created is a sonar frequency that can not be heard by human ears by breathing out in a small distance that enables the user to almost see by their ears without relying solely on sounds around him. When first learned the user is capable of producing the sonic waves of hyper frequency to a distance at a maximum of ten meters. Each time learned the distance increases by ten meters.
Special: ---
Drawback: You are only capable of pushing off to a certain distance. The only way the distance can be increased is by how many times you train within the same type of Jutsu.
Description: It works like a Radar, or really is considered as a human Echolocation. When the sound waves pushes off bouncing against objects, the sound waves bounce back hitting against the users ears making it seem as if the user is capable of seeing in a sensor type manner. When the distance is increased it seems as if brain slightly remembers a certain area until the waves bounce off the objects once again. Using this they are capable of seeing shapes and figures, but not to the extreme IE reading, or how much money they have.
Limit: Only those of the Shitakuma clan is capable of learning

Othello walked through the darkness when he figured that he would need another way to sense people rather then just a chakra sense. He needed to find a way to actually find something in the darkness besides just sound he could create with actions such as hitting something. What came to him was pure genius. What if there was a way to actually use the minimal amount of sound and use the waves to receive a picture of the enemy or whatever was around him. Going towards one of the many tea houses Othello ordered a small green tea and some snacks so that he could concentrate on this jutsu and not be bothered, as well as this wasnt a lethal jutsu so no one would get hurt. At least the area would stay intact now. Calming his nerves Othello thought back to when he first learned to sense the things around him. He was very young and almost a infant but his parents didnt wait till he was older, Othello never understood why that was.

Othello breathed out a small amount but other then what his hell's ears showed him, nothing else was shown. Other objects and people around the tea house could be seen but it wasnt because of the low emission of sound from his breathing that made him see. Othello stopped what he was doing just as the tea house servants came in. One of theme asked them what he was doing and as well as apologized for noticing his blindness. Othello told her thought nothing of it and as well told her about the jutsu he's trying to learn. The servants name was Fa and she seemed so interested that Othello couldnt stop her from trying to help him. She asked many questions about the jutsu and the best Othello could do was show her what he did. Sitting down and breathing deeply Othello would emit the breath from his nostrils once more. Letting the warm air pass freely.

The same thing happened as before and yet again Othello didnt know why. He couldnt breath out more loudly because that would make the entire ninjutsu redundant. Othello tried a few more times until he heard Fa stir, maybe she was bored. Othello stopped and asked her, she didnt say she was but she did give some kind of a advice. She asked if he was using his chakra while doing the sense, cuz it just looked like he was sitting there. Othello was a idiot, why hasnt he mixed his chakra with his lungs. Othello breathed in and then while hes doing so he began to blend his chakra with his oxygen that was collecting in his lungs.

The tingle inside Othello's chest was a good indication of where he was at on the development of the jutsu. Once it began to itch he slowly pushed out the air from his lungs through his nostrils. The echo was clearly seen and traveled over the room like a wave when it hits a sandy beach. The images appeared to him like it would to a echo to a bat. The images were clear but not entirely detailed. He could see the outline of people and fingers of people but the eyes and such were as fuzzy as when someone wears really bifocal glasses that doesnt need them. He could see Fa now and she was looking at him intently and rather closely at that. She was only a mere inches from his face and getting closer, was she planning to kiss him? Othello opened up his eyes to show that he was noticing her getting closer rather then him looking around because he was unable to see with those dead eyes.

Othello thanked her for her work and for her idea. She was actually a great help and he had hoped he didnt bother her too much. As well he hoped he didnt hurt her feelings for opening his eyes and stopping her from kissing him. He said his goodbyes and left all the while keeping the jutsu active. It didnt zap away as his chakra like he thought it would. It was just the same amount as his hells ears did but using the consecutively was no problem. Every step came a breath and every breath brought a wave of sound that gave him vision. All his life experiences to this day has gave him the ability to learn this kind of jutsu. The hidden mist skill in conjecture with this would help him greatly whenever Othello planned to make a team. Maybe Zeth could also learn this technique and it would become one deadly combination.

Ototon: Zerihagi (Sound Style: Jelly Leg)
Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: The user renders the opponent unable to use their legs.
Special: “Hand Seals”
Drawback: --
Description: The user forms the hand seals, channeling elementally recomposed Sound Chakra into their palms. The user then slams their palms against the ground, releasing the chakra in a burst that races across the ground towards the opponent at high speed. This burst makes no visible impression, making it hard to dodge. When this burst strikes it forcibly vibrates the user’s ligaments and tendons, making it almost impossible for the user to walk, run, or jump for two rounds. This technique has a range of ten meters, plus five more for every character rank above D the user possesses. The user no longer has to touch the ground upon reaching A rank.
Limit: Must have Ototon.

Othello was walking down the the backstreets of the cloud village when he heard a woman being attacked. In his minds eye he saw the woman, face stricken with fright with three robbers grabbing at her purse as well as her garments. They meant to do more damage then just a plain robbery and Othello did not want to wait to see what will happen. Like a blur he go into action, he performed a few handseals and hitting the ground beneath, Othello had a idea what would happen but he wasnt sure, this wasnt the time to second guess ones self when the woman was in danger. Slamming his hands after the random assortment of handseals Othello poured his chakra into the ground and aimed it towards the robbers. He had hoped it wouldnt hurt the woman and in his rush he was unsure if this would even work. What happen was amazing, the chakra upon reaching the feet of the robbers made them all collapse unable to move there legs. Each one went down in tune with the others. What element did Othello use? He did not have anything that was earth related and only thing that was similar to earth was tremor sense but that was a blood limit jutsu.

Othello quickly took out the crooks and gave the woman back her items. She gladly thanked him while the robbers kept cursing and yelling what Othello had done to them, honestly he didnt fully know itself. This was the first time a jutsu just happened by instinct perhaps it was a sign he should learn it if he hasnt already. If he had then tuning it was needed. Going towards a field he had to find at least someone to be on the receiving end of the jutsu, it didnt hurt so maybe someone would actually help him out with this. He would have to warn them of course of the affects of the jutsu itself. A passerby recognized Othello and walked over to him. They bantered for quite awhile until Othello brought up the whole jutsu experiment. At first he was very nervous about the whole test idea but when he heard that it wouldnt cause any pain he was all in for it.

Othello and his helper faced each other from a few feet away, as far as Othello was from the robbers at the time he activated the jutsu. Trying to remember the hand seals he used was kind of hard since he had rushed it. Quite a few times he fumbled for the hand seals and he hadn't done such a thing since he was a younger genin. Genin hmmm he thought, Othello has never had the chance to ever turn into a Chuunin. To think he was also a genin when he was Raikage. That was interesting. Perhaps after a few missions he would join up with Zeth and go out to the next Chuunin exams, hopefully they wouldnt die in the process. The recipient of the jutsu waited patiently when Othello figured out what hand seals he had to use.

Othello noticed that his helper had a nervous expression on his face. Hopefully this jutsu would just be over in a few minutes. Othello slammed his hands down on the floor and felt his chakra go into the ground, the odd thing was that his friend didnt change his expression the closer and closer the jutsu got. Was this jutsu invisible to the enemies it would be heading towards? That would be a great advantage for Othello's repetoir. Othello watched as the jutsu hit his friend and it had the same effect as it did with the robbers. Without a moment to waste Othello dashed towards his friend and caught him before he hit the ground. Stabilizing his new friends body and leaning it against a tree Othello practiced his chakra control.

Othello repeated the jutsu a few more times until a few hours past and his friend was now stable. Othello's chakra filled the area behind him and once his friend left he decided to meditate in the forest nearby by himself. It was a good way to clear his mind and regain his chakra from the exertion of todays training. In his minds eye he concentrated his chakra and sent it circling back into his chakra central nervous system so that it could dissipate quickly without harm to his body and or hands. The jutsu was taxing. His body tingled but more across his hands. The chakra must have exploded from his pores. Rubbing his hands together Othello gathered up his stuff and went down the pathway he came, noticing the robbers from before getting put into a police wagon and being escorted to the nearest jail cell. It was good to be home.

Basic Stance
Rank: E
Skill: Taijutsu
Effect: The basic stance for Bôjutsu techniques.
Special: None
Drawback: None
Description: The user holds their dominant hand under the staff near the middle and their other hand over the staff near the middle. The staff is diagonal and the lower end of the staff is on your weaker side.
Limit: Must have a Bôjutsu Training Scroll or Bôjutsu master.

After coming back from the item shop with a scroll in hand Othello thought it would help him in his new training. After learning as many releases as it interested him he decided to train on something that he wasnt very strong in. It was close range fighting and since he was very endowed with his staff then he figured it was time to train in it. Opening up the scroll Othello glided his hands over the pictures. He couldnt see the pictures for his blindness, but that didnt stop him. The grease on his hands glided over and made everything to the touch hyper sensative. The images he saw now were of of different stances, all very sturdy yet as well as nimble. The way Othello would have to maneuver his body would have to change as well as his breathing, since his staff allows sound to pass through it the sound waves will be more detailed as well as frequent.

One of the first stances was pretty simple enough so Othello started in his normal fighting stance and slowly started to adjust. The stance had the legs shoulders with apart and the hands sturdy yet relaxed upon the staff itself. It felt wrong after first to have to hold his staff in such a way but with time he would become accustomed to it and maybe master it. As Othello began his training, a man with a rather long walking stick came by and noticed how Othello was improperly handling his own.

Othello talked to the practitioner for quite awhile, watching on as the man showed him the proper ways of practicing. Perhaps buying the scroll was no needed but it was good to study the basics. The other things that the practitioner should him would prove to be most valuable. The practitioner swung his staff around so easily and with each swing Othello got a image of not only the mans stance but as well as his skill. Giving a the warrior a fond farewell Othello adjusted himself into the stance once more and tried to duplicate what the warrior had showed him. Of course he would put a bit of a "spin" on it himself.

Placing his hands a bit lower to his body would add more control over the staff while holding them further away would had sturdiness. If he was in really close range having his hands in towards themselves would help but if they were further away, then he could place his hands towards the bottom of the staff and thrust outward. Othello did a few swings and made sure his stance was still in place. The breathing was a bit erratic but he would work on that in a few more minutes. Taking a small break Othello never let go of his staff. He would twirl it around lazily, trying to make it more apart of him then it ever was before.

After the few minutes Othello was at it again and to his surprise everything seemed to flow naturally. Othello moved from left to right keeping the stance intact as well as swinging at a imaginary enemy. The stance did help in fact that at specific moves Othello would be much faster using this technique rather then just fighting as he normally would have. This would save time and energy with each attack, Othello stopped practicing and went to the chart to continue his training with other techniques.

Othello needed to get faster and the best way to do that was to travel to a small arena in the city that was well known for its taijutsu users. Hopefully one of the many combatants there would lend him a hand or two maybe three, back in cloud there were many a person who would go faster then even Othello's hearing could detect, but thats why he always made sure he used his other sense's to keep up. Upon arrival at the arena Othello could smell the sweat and dirt piling up in order around it. However many people were inside was unsure but they all were working pretty hard. Inside Othello saw many different fighters, all ranging in size from the smallest shinobi to the biggest goliath. They all looked in Othello's direction some thinking that he was just another competitor and others wondering why his eyes seemed dead.

Othello walked towards a person who was still practicing, they were fast, impossibly fast. It intrigued Othello since his sense could barley keep up with him. It was like watching a blur, following the sounds it made while going through the air was the only way Othello could track this man. The main while in mid dash looked towards Othello and stopped, he charged him without notice and without Othello's high capacity on using sound waves he wouldnt have heard each footfall. Othello dodged one of the mans feet as it passed right over Othello's head. This fighters movements were fast, Othello tried to dodge it as fast as Possible.

His movements were sluggish compared to this fellow, it was like the tortoise versus the hare. Except in this comparison the turtle would be turned into turtle soup. Every muscle that Othello had train over years of grueling exercise was put to shame to this fighters experience and reaction time. The muscles ached and the acid was beginning to take its toll by the time the 9th hit was dodged, this man was not losing speed and even Othello's abilities were failing him.

Suddenly the fighter slowed to a stop and rubbed his fist, Othello had stopped that attack, he believed it was the 4th one he tried to land on Othello's side.



"I think you are one of the slowest people I have ever fought. Do you even see I'm trying to hit you" said the quick fighter. Othello spoke to him for the next few moment and let him no that technically he didn't see any of the hits and that he doesn't even see him. After the shock they both made a arrangement that they would train together for the next few weeks. The next few weeks was hell to Othello's body, the strain of learning how to go as fast as his mentor was horrible. One of the days Othello will never forget. In the arena the fighter, who as of yet had never told Othello his name, let cheetas in. They were all starving cuz the fighter had let them starve for a few days and they were looking at Othello with such hunger. The blind nomad dodged the cheetahs one by one slowly at first, but their hunger was striving them to pick the pace up.

The weeks of training made Othello's muscles last longer but more importantly go faster on response time. As his leg muscles tensed up again for another leap past the cheetahs he felt the electricity surging through his body. The chakra built itself into stamina, cell by cell it was changing its whole infrastructure. Othello could feel the stamina surging and with that he used to get passed all the cheetahs and stood next to his mentor. The beasts turned towards him and instead of going after Othello went after his mentor. This was a good step in the right direction, if he was fast enough to dodge the animals and force them onto the next target.

The next step in Othello's training was to dodge a few kunai that his mentor will throw at him. He couldnt get passed the first few and had to back away. He, as of yet, had not learned how to back away fast enough to easily dodge them. Othello's body ached after so many days of constant pressure applied to him by his newly founded mentor. His battle with him earlier that day left some scratches, bruises, and was humbling. After the whole barrage of kunai and Othello's new threads getting trashed they both took a much needed break. Drinking the water with his mentor was a vivid reminder of how Othello use to train with his older sensei many years ago when he just came out of the academy. His master knew all about Othello's clan and how his specific camp was destroyed and Othello was left to rot just because that monster of a person did not find him hiding underneath his parents body when they shielded him from harm.

When he was young he remembered that foot placing was the biggest deal in the academy. The place you laid your feet may or may not bee the last place you would stand. When the sensei trained him he was astonished at the balance Othello had. The blood limit he was born always kept Othello balanced in almost any position he was in. Some of the movements he made was only compared to capoiera moves. The master tried to use this to his advantage by trying to show Othello how to speed up this balance that came so easily to the blind nomadic child.

The sensei vanished in a blur of motion and smoke right behind Othello. At that young age Othello didnt know how this was even possible. This would be the first person who had evaded his sensory abilities. He could not smell, hear, or feel his masters presence. In shock Othello felt a tap on his shoulder. There he was, he had not moved from that spot but that was impossible of course he had moved what other reason would Othello's powers fail him. They talked about it a bit and his sensei explained that when he becomes a super class shinobi movements like that would come to him with no problem. Open his senses back to the real world Othello felt his new sensei's attention shift back towards his disciple. Kunai were flung from his hands straight towards Othello but it was good that he had already awaken. Othello shifted his position and placed his feet back on the ground.

Pushing backwards on his instep Othello glided back easily from the primary kunai, and tried to avoid the others. His speed was getting quicker and more sooner then later he felt that his body was moving just as fast if not quicker then his master. Last but not least they had a competition on dodging an incredible amount of objects. Ranging from kunai to large great swords. This went on for a bit until his sensei not adversary started to tire out and gave up. After a few hours Othello said his goodbyes and left.

Othello learned the backwards and forwards of the shunshin, maybe it was time to learn the round about ways of the shunshin. By that though Othello needed another trainer, his previous trainer was good but was a bit too serious for his liking. He always pushed things to the limit, passed Othello's limit that is, not his own. So off Othello went away from the arena and there he found a old sage, smoking on a pipe watching the world go by. His wrinkles were profound but some of the wrinkles near his mouth were obviously caused by smiles. What caused those smiles was on Othello's mind but this guy would be as good as anyone to help Othello train. "Old man would you mind helping me out. Theres this technique that I want to adapt to my fighting and i woud like if you would help" Othello smiled warmly to the old mine. If his grandpa was still alive he would be around the same age as this man.

The old man nodded to confirm he would help and with that Othello got a few feet away from him. Five meters away Othello nodded his head to the old man, three kunai came from within the old mans sleeve towards Othello's face. There were many different decisions Othello could choose, if he choose to shunshin forward he would meet the kunai head on and that would either injure him, kill him, or cause wasted energy. If he shunshinned backwards he would just delay the kunai from hitting him, and there was only a limited distance he could go. Ten meters was the limit he remembered his last training showed him. So using his senses Othello saw the kunai in front of him, they were causing friction in the air and that sound went right into his ears. This type of sonar was always very useful.

Othello shifted his feet towards his right, this was the only way he could possibly avoid the attack, he then launched his body forward. Because of the shift in weight Othello's body went forwards but not in a straight line but in some form of arc. This arc would use the experience he gained from before and the speed as well. The old man nodded in approval as Othello glided to a halt in front of him. This was pretty cool, but it felt too slow, he had to do it a few more times. Without even asking the old man knew. The gentle pat he gave Othello on the wrist was confirmation that he was ready to proceed.

Getting back in position Othello and the old man continued. They continued until it was night time, by the moisture in the air and the atmosphere Othello felt the night overwhelm the day. The shops were closing and the old man seemed to be falling asleep. This old man was so helpful without asking for anything in return. Othello was selfish but before he could ask him the old mans name he was already asleep. Othello walked over and picked the man up with his pipe and cane. He shook the man a lil and asked him where he lived. The old man opened his eyes lazily and pointed to a house on the hillside, then quickly going back to sleep. Othello used his shunshin to make the trip shorter, all the while making sure not to wake the man up, this was even more demanding then doing shunshin normally.

Reaching the house Othello walked in and greeted the old mans grandchildren. They were happy that he had not wandered off far, he had tended to do that. As the grandchildren put the old man to sleep Othello looked over at the pictures over the fire place. Touching the pictures he began to get a image from the lifted ink. What he saw shocked Othello but made the old mans actions made sense. Othello left a small letter thanking the old man and shunshinned out of the house. What Othello saw on the picture a boy that had shocking similarities to himself. Almost everything down to the eyes were the same, it gave Othello something to think about and he was sure he would visit the old man again.
