Sandy beaches. Soft water brushing against the cool morning sands. It felt amazing. Reddo hadn't been the same since learning hiraishin. Something about him felt looser. Like he was more detached from the world...and had a stronger presence in something different. He was a master of summoning his fabled animals, and a master of traveling through that pathway himself.

Through time. Through space. He understood the intricate connection and harmony between them, and a once thought separate world. The afterlife. That's what that feeling had been when he first hiraishin'd, it was his soul moving to that side.

Reddo meditated on the beach, letting the soft sound of the ocean roll over him, into his chakra, his skin, his soul. He felt time itself brush against his body, and warp around him as he felt the imprints of the souls before him begin to move.

Thirty six minutes ago. Two souls interlocked, hearts interwoven and in love, the morning sun gently kissing them as they held one another. They had been staying there together for some time, for when the time came to leave, their actions were sluggish, regretful.

They ran way because he was coming there. They had seen him in the distance, and moved away. Now Reddo was watching himself glance around at the footprints he had seen. Curious but not prying into the existence of who was there before. Then he saw himself sit, and begin to meditate as he had been before.

Time itself folded around his vision, or the imprints on time the souls left. The ripples. The patterns that his chakra had become attuned to after spending so much time out of existence while traveling the hiraishin. The chakra was now able to loop itself in with his very soul, and feel the souls of others. A SoulCaster...

He figured it would have hurt. His soul separating from his body in a way that let him glimpse at the fabric, but really he felt no different. His soul carried his chakra into the fabric of space and time, and let it seep into the workings to understand the past and the present in a different way. To see ones essence through time itself was a feat Reddo had heard about, but never thought he would achieve on his own.

The chakra laced itself deeper into the weave and Reddo decided to change his position, move and view a different angle of the past. To see who else had been here in different areas. But it mostly seemed to be couples on the beach so early in the morning to watch the sunrise. Their souls seemed to almost cling to the moment as much as they did each other, their energies burned so greatly.

Did this make him less human? Or more? To be able to travel independently of time and space should be an exhilarating feeling, not a calming one as it seemed to be. He was watching times that had passed as clearly as if he had been there, but all he could feel was a sense of peace. Maybe he was becoming more in tune with what it meant to exist outside of the mortal fabric and become an ethereal being. Maybe this was what dying would feel like; ghostly images wandering everywhere, he unable to interact with any of them.

His soul's fingers stretched his chakra across the weave and continued to fold the net around his vision for the full 36 minutes, bringing in and moving about the people in the 50 meter distance. It was beautiful in a way, to see these things that easily exist without him; enlightening even.

What was that? Reddo thought he heard something. Tasted something. Smelled something. His senses were firing. He could practically feel whatever that presence was under his skin. It wasn't natural, not a sense he had been introduced to before. It wasn't like knowing when someone was behind you, it was like feeling the ripple their chakra made through the universe.

The ripple of their soul. Reddo started to move his own chakra outwards to meet it. To further tune himself to it's existence. His chakra weaved itself with the world's fabric and started to heighten his sense of the vibration. The feeling of it was so...amazing. It was like looking without eyes. He could feel the expanse around him, and then suddenly a glow of a soul.

But it was a naturally slow process; the universe was to complex to be forced, and the fact that he was even forcing himself into the framework of the world was already exceptional. But with increased time came the increased fusion of his chakra, and the feeling of the soul became deeper and stronger.

He could feel, he could literally feel how powerful the soul was. The way it's strength warped the universe around it was a gauge of it's strength. The strength of the imprint on the universe was important to understanding it's location, as with the strength of the warp, came the location of the soul in space and time.

It wasn't far. Ten meters away. Standing still. Watching him. Maybe it was waiting for him to make some sort of motion or movement before it struck, Reddo didn't know, but what he did know, was that whatever this thing was, it was stronger than he was. Maybe Reddo was a better fighter than it, but that didn't change the strength of it's imprint.

Reddo relinquished his control of the chakra that had entered the fabric and let it simply blend away into it. He remained calm, cool, collected, and kept his eyes closed and his body still. As the last of his chakra faded away, he knew exactly where this person was, and how strong it was, and he needed to figure out a way to get away from it...or see it.

The ultimate separation. The parting of body and soul was what Reddo sought to achieve. The process at first was slow, and not at all painless, for without ones soul, what was he more than an empty shell, and that hollow place was painful. Reddo set his chakra in motion through his entire body. Through every inch of him it moved, spreading, flowing, meshing and melding with every inch of what he was, every corner of his mind and body, until he was able to feel every inch of himself.

He took hold of everything he was, as though he was about to use his hiraishin, but instead of pulling himself through time and space, he pulled himself away from it. How does one pull something away, when all directions are towards? With great skill. It was as though his chakra vibrated for a moment as it latched onto the galaxy's framework. A slight chill ran through him, as his entire body came so close to the veil between worlds.

The chakra tightened around him, and then began to pull away from the real world, and push towards the veil. His chakra was slipping away from him, and leaving him for what seemed like eternity. He felt like he was dying, though not in a fully painful way, but his body was sad, and it ached to pull back his life-force, but he denied it.

Until he felt himself begin to slip from life. He felt himself start to truly die. It was an exhilarating feeling, one emulated quite realistically by the isolation chamber, and if not for that training for the use of hiraishin, he wouldn't have been able to get through the next, and crucial step.

He died. Only for a split second. His soul left his body, but suddenly had no way of reaching the veil, and the chakra that Reddo had forced out into the folds of space and time snapped back to it's true place once his hold was released of it in his death, and the net it formed grabbed his soul.

It pulled and encompassed it, and as it exited, the chakra wrapped around it and anchored it to his body. Reddo was alive, and not in his born form. He was in his true form. Never before had he felt so free, never before had the world looked so suddenly vibrant and amazing. Reddo spread his wings...good god, wings!? He looked over his soul, and found it to be a bird! A bird made of a blueish-white energy that looked so much like freshly fallen snow.

Then he looked forward, and took off, his ethereal body gliding easily through the air, the chakra tethering his soul to his physical form was invisible, but he knew he was there, simply riding the wave inside of this net he had formed.

It was amazing. He felt so...alive! Though maybe this was technically him dead, it was the greatest thing he ever experienced! The boundaries his chakra would allow was 45 meters, but he was sure that distance would grow as he himself grew in strength, and his new found wings grew with him. Reddo's soul phased into the ground without even slowing, nothing physical seemed to be able to come into contact with him while like this, and if Reddo was correct, he would be invisible to the naked eye.

But time was getting short, and he flew himself back into his stomach, taking a slow breath once he was back into his mortal body. Somehow...he felt different now. Jsut as he did once he mastered hiraishin, he now felt like there was suddenly so much more to living and the existence of the universe...incredible.

"Soul Caster..." the man who had watching him said. Reddo's body moved away from the beach before the man could approach him further; he didn't want to be late for the chuunins.
