The feet are aligned forward and the lead knee bent with a sixty-forty weight distribution.

Splash! Splash!

The rhythm of Ancrath’s leather boots smacking on those shallow muddy puddles, a small 12-year old boy with a bright white sheathed katana on his right hip is walking down a filthy street in downtown. Where is Matsurika? He sighed impatiently as he turned left to an alley to find a spot to relax. Matsurika, a swordswoman and Ancrath’s former classmate at Ninja Academy that is supposed to meet him at downtown to teach Ancrath the ways of Gyakusatsu, another sword fighting style as Ancrath requested to be taught. Splat! Something hit thick and wavy black hair, Ancrath’s head. Ancrath lifted his small head to look up. He began to stare with his dark jade eyes at those dimming clouds that still remain in the sky, covering the sun. It is beginning to rain again. Ancrath moved his hood with his left hand to protect his head.  
 

Pitter-Patter… the rain had fallen on the downtown…a drop of water dropped down from a gutter on a building.
Splat! It hit the puddle… Several minutes had passed.

 

Ancrath is still waiting, leaning his back against the brick wall. Staring at those people who had walked past him until a familiar figure appeared. It was a female, she is wearing a bright red zipped rain jacket and red pants with three white stripes that go down all the way from top to bottom of female’s pants. Her thin lengthy (Shoulder length) alluring white hair is soaked with water and her ruby eyes are staring at Ancrath now. Ah, you finally showed up at least… I waited for at least five minutes or so. Why are you late? Ancrath spoke with a hint of tiresome. Omg you are snooping around as usual! Mitsurika snapped. Whatever it is not necessary to tell me your ridiculous girly-related excuse anyway. Let us begin, Ancrath replied as he began to walking. He is so sno— Ugh Concentrate, I’m here for exchanging techniques, Mitsurkia murmured, then she started to follow Ancrath.
 
Both persons walked past the downtown and discovered a pleasant grass field to train. Matsukria stood before Ancrath, That is how you stand that way in a proper position, Matsukria explained as that white-haired female is demonstarting Satsugai no Shisei to Ancrath. It is an excellent position by using your own body to bring more weight and speed to transform your strikes into a blind speed that people barely can see the blade in motion.
Ancrath placed himself in a position as Matsukria did before. He is holding his white sheath on his left hip, gripping firmly with his right hand and left hand on the handle. Matsukria walked to young male's rear and putted her narrow fingers on his shoulders You need to relax your shoulders down and keep it even. Matsukria spoke with a soft tone.
Jasmine... Indeed, it smell like a Jasmine flower, that girl have it. as Ancrath had caught that scent as he inhaled to relax his Deltiod(Shoulder) muscles.

You did a good job at your first attempt. Matsukria grinned at Ancrath. That young boy sneered at Matsukira, he felt insulted that Matsukria's friendly comment made him sound like a novice... Ancrath placed himself in the same position again then he closed his eyes and took several deep breaths. In a matter of seconds, Ancrath flashed his eyes as he is slashing his unsheathed blade in a nearly perfect strike with style. There. Much better? That boy spoke boastly. I'm impressed at your rapid proccess. Let me teach you another posture, I believe you will love it. She replied.

[ooc: Pardon my ignorance :l]

No, I want to comprehend Satsugai no Shisei fully... right now and here, Ancrath replied quickly before her trainer could process to another technique. He knew that he did not learn fully of that technique plus he do not want to rush stuff too fast... to cause him possibly forget due to his slothful characteristic. Matsukria looked fixedly at black headed, small boy, Very well... but there are not much of any left to improve only to adjust your lead knee by a sixty and forty weight distribution, she explained.

Ancrath adjusted his left knee by pushing his left knee more deep into the muddy and soaked grass where he is currently standing. Before the small boy can perform once again, he was interrupted. You need more weight on your left knee, it is slightly too light, you will not be able to perfect your strike if you cannot have a sixty and forty balance, Matsukria pointed out at Ancrath's failure to notice the essential part of weight distribution. Ugh... not deep enough? Ancrath mentally grunted. He once again attempted to place his body, pushing his left side even more deep into the ground, then start to take several breaths to relax his shoulders into an even balance. Swoosh! Ancrath swung his sword in an even better performance than previous last one. He noticed it actually swung much better, he determine to do it once more again with confidence this time. He sheathed his sword, then starting over by putting his left side into a deep push on the ground, and putting his hands on his bright white sheathed weapon. Swoosh! Another perfect swing from Ancrath, he grinned as he had witnessed another success.

Open Stance
Rank: "E"
Skill: TaiJutsu/Supplementary
Effect: Gives stable support base, reduces tendency to lean back from the target.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: One of the four stances a user may learn as they are able to learn just one if they wish. Tends to make upper body twist towards target. Tends to use arm muscles more than back muscles to draw. Open stance is recommended for the beginning Marksman during their initial learning period. In this stance, the feet should be shoulder-width apart. It is recommended that the Marksman should distribute his/her body weight evenly on both feet.
Limit: Must be a Marksman.

The black haired genin appeared again in the same grassfield, the weather outside is not much different from previous visit. Just drizzle and the mist is still floating but way lighter than original one. This time, he decide to approach another new taijustu... Marksman. He is aware he will master the ways of sword-fighting to be his close-range friend but he need something that is non-ninjustu for long-range combat... since he hated ninjustu so much due to his struggles with it. So he chose to teach himself to be a marksman with a bow. He stolen a book "Marksman for Dummies" from a book shop with instructions and images for stances and other shit in it.

First step of be a marksman is... having a proper stance to shoot your arrows, it is obvious. Before going to that grassfield, He already snatched a training long-bow and a quiver with 50ish arrows from the taijustu training gym. He stretch out his upper body muscles as he proceed to be five to seven meters away from his target, a famous common bulls-eye circle that was also from the gym. He turns his body 90 degree clockwise away from the target and kept his head remain in the same spot, facing the target. He is a rightist for this taijustu, different from being leftist for sword taijustus. He prefer to be that way so both of his arms could be toughen up to swing his sword easily and draw his bow quickly. A win-win.

He draw his bow, right hand on the end of the loaded arrow and left hand to hold the bow steady. Swoosh! He letted the arrow escaped from his grip, a arrow flew neatly through the air but it missed the target completely... Ugh! I really need to work on this taijustu from scratch. The boy murmured. He kept his stance steady without making any movements expect his arms for shooting arrows to improve his aiming. He adjusted his angles of his arms and shot another arrow. Same result... missed! He continued shooting the arrows, most of it missed fully, several barely successfully hit the target... but no bull-eye so far. It did not discourage the boy, he kept shooting arrows anyway, this training is marked as the beginning of the genin's goal to be a marksman.

The genin woke up as the shining sunlight sneaked into his room and poking his head with unlikeable bright light to tell him to get up. He sighed as he stood up by sitting on the bed, still covering his half-naked boy with sheets. He is still dragged down with exhaustion, that mission he did had really took a lot of energy from him. He turned his head to see his injured hand that got harmed by one of his trainings. His tired dark jade eyes are blinking slowly as his hand are putted in the motion as a test to see any pain would strike it. It did, only little pain stung on his tip-top of his fingers. It was burn marks, he neglected that pain as rather he is focused on his Doton training instead whining as a small pathetic child. He took a hot shower and dressed up with his black cloak as the attempt to store his heat... The outside weather is quite chilly. He also ate a well-sized home cooked breakfast before he deported to his usual training spot at the greenfield.

He is thinking as he is arriving at the training spot, he wanted to approach Doton with different training methods instead just pulling pebbles out of the ground... He got a idea. Using chakra to squeeze pebbles altogether, forcing pebbles into the layers of dirt then stick those crushed pebbles to make up an object... or just merge those pebbles into an object, it is much more easier to merge. There are a road next to him, it is paved with gravels; an excellent source. He sat up on that grass once he is arrived, and took a deep breath. I must to be careful... he mentally concerned about his injured hand which stung once again. He neglected it once again and lifted his hands as it is sending out chakra into the air. The genin's chakra is discreetly crawling toward the road then snatched those Gray-colored pebbles in its grip. Those pebbles began to clash and clash against each other as The boy is closing a fist slowly. Finally two pebbles slowly began to merge altogether then merging more pebbles into it. It looks like a small gray fish began to eat another small fishes, sooner or later that fish began to grow and grow until it is big as a rock that weighs about 20 to 25 pounds.

His injured fingers began to sting a little, the boy bited his lips firmly as the attempt to ignore the pain again. His green eyes kept staring at that large rock, he slowly cuts that rock's edges with his sharp-like chakra to smooth the texture and also making this object more rounded like a ball instead being a lot of pointy edges and another common odd shapes as a rock. It went well, this object began to look like more of a ball instead rock but his pain grew worse as he continued his progress. He decided to stop using his injured hand to avert any more pain. Now a single hand of his got even more burdened on this training.

[ThunderBacon ~Ancrath~]

[10/30]

The genin are desperately struggling to hold that gray rounded object steady with a single hand of his but it was hopeless... That 25 pounds rock is rocking violently in all directions, then...
SLAM!
The sound of that rock made an impact on the ground. Ugh! Damn! The boy yelled at that rock with rage. All right... I'm close to that. He sighed as he is trying to be optimistic with his progress. He broke up his sitting pose to get up to awake his sleepy muscles by stretching out. After several frog hops, shoulder raise and stretches; the boy returns his attention on that rock which is nesting on the grass next to the paved road.

He yawned then lifted his right hand (uninjured one) to try again to lift that gray object but it is barely lifted from the ground by a couple of centimeters. He with all of his remaining strength in his hand moved quickly along with his body, spinning a 360 degree as the attempt to send that heavy rock to fly away. It was ridiculous... it only flew two to three feet away from its initial position. Fuck it! What was the point of it? He spoke angrily with regrets for what he had done in vain. Then His body including his motivation collapses on the ground with exhaustion and frustration.

The genin's eyes opened up... several, no it was more than just several hours had passed, the genin suspected by judging the day. It is evening now, the sky dimmed but lit with bright dots on all over the entire sky like a plain blue-painted board or something that got splattered with white-painted dots all over of it. He got up, noticing there are no longer pain from his injured hand nor any exhaustion in his body. The boy got curious if his hand got better as he began to unwrap the bandage on his hand to have update on the status of it.

The sight of his hand is much better than previous one, the burn marks is nearly fully healed and it is capable to be moved without feeling any pain. He is relieved and happy with this update, he decided to return to his progress on Doton training. He turned his attention to look for his modified rock and found it, it laid on the same spot since he threw it. He sighed and gripped that laying rock with his chakra once again. He repeated same progress, lifting the rock into the air then attempt to drill into the center with only chakra to develop a "rock-cutting" skill. The part of lifting the rock was a success, of course he did it before often. He clenched his right hand into a fist but sticking out his index finger as the "drill" to penetrate through the layers of merged pebbles.

His eyes squints as the genin began to make his chakra more densier to add up more toughness and sharpness to improve the chances of successfully penetrate the rock's hull. After making up several adjustations, he made an impact against that leviating rock with his right index finger. That grey-rounded rock spilt into two pieces, it was a neat cut, in other word... success! Saisfied with results, the boy deported to return his home, the training is over for now.

Unless I'm very much mistaken, if you train on a mission it counts as a training thread, and you can only have one training thread active at a time. Furthermore you did not state exiting this thread, therefore the TP from the mission is void. So:

+9,
+4,
+6;

+19.

Bam Bam
The huge dark gray boulder stood about 4 foot tall and 3 foot wide is receiving punches from a 12-year old male's fists. That boy is in another training once again, of course ninjas do have a quite high work ethics around Mist village to train very much. Even after several constant trainings on same release, Doton release, the genin still believed he still need to practice more. Despite his poor ninjustu skills, he is still very determined. This time, he decided to return to his first Doton training method, move a rock; but instead moving a pebble, he wants to move a large and heavy boulder to improve his control over chakra. He knew that better control will have better uses of chakra such as molding them easier and waste less.

It is another chilly misty afternoon, nothing different nor unusual sights so far, just a original day. The genin kept hitting the boulder with same punches he had used since he began the training. Those punches did not really do much toward that boulder... It barely moved but it helped the boy to improve his strength endurance anyway. He paused his punches and trying to think of a idea to aid him in that training, it took only two to three seconds to find one. Just install chakra into the fists to pump up some extra power and the boy did followed his newly created idea. It quite did helped, the boulder shook harder and moved a couple of inches.

The genin's lips grew a smile as he just realized he actually did much better than before at ninjustu and his control is slightly improved. Another achievement he made in his ninja life. He decided to hit the boulder one more time with his best shot. After installed chakra into his fist, he felt his chakra is stirring up in his hand... powerful, indeed more powerful... The genin swung his arm with best effort BAM! Thump! The collapse of the young boy's fist and hardened layer of the boulder occurred and that boulder had fallen on the ground. It moved! Hooray! He hooted.

[ThunderBacon ~Ancrath~]

[19/30]

The genin stood before the fallen boulder, closing his eyes as he lifted his small hands above his hips. He felt his chakra is spreading around the fallen boulder. His both hands got more closer against each other, forming a imagery ball. Then Ancrath could feel his chakra is squeezing the boulder tight and tighter like a boa suffice its victim as his open hands begun to close into fists. The boulder shrink slowly little by little as it is transforming into a ball-like shape. As this continues, he took several relaxing breaths to keep his focus.

Final, his eyes opened and see that used-to-be boulder had transformed into a small nearly-perfect, smooth rounded stone. The boy fell down on the grass, shaking his worn-out hands. His dark jade eyes staring at the dimming sky.

After a short five-minute daydreaming, he rises as his mind turns back to that carved stone ball. His chakra reach out to grabs that stone once again but instead to squeeze it. The genin attempts to tear it apart now, this step was not difficult.. That stone is split into two pieces now. The genin grinned as he is happy with his process so far.
