Himitsu listened to Kai and Miki briefly discuss the cultists that had threatened the village recently. He noticed Kai's eyes droop just the slightest as the conversation ended. Sumika's question seemed to pull him back to the moment though, and he was back to his usual grin. Having already had time to think about Kai's question, Himitsu planned to vote for tracking a thief, but wasn't too upset about being outvoted. Miki seemed personally bothered by the dogs, and he certainly wasn't going to argue with a panda for a variety of reasons. "Sounds like we're on animal rescue duty!"

Kai's eyes lit up at the sight of Miki being so fired up over the sound of a dog fighting ring. Yes, determination and courage were great things in a student! He liked her attitude and her desire to protect. He still wasn't sure what to make of Sumika, but her leniency towards the panda was interesting. She didn't seem fired up about the dog fighting ring like Miki, so maybe the source wasn't an overall love of animals, but her proximity and care about the panda itself. He wasn't sure how to motivate her as an instructor. Yet.
"Animal rescue duty it is!" He struck a pose with a brilliant grin before he led the way. He was overjoyed to finally get his team to move, and he was glad it was with two clanmates and someone whose cold exterior he'd eventually warm. If he couldn't turn her heart around, he wasn't Konoha's greatest rapper. With a pep in his step, he led the squadron through the academy and towards the gates. "Yahoo!"

Mimiru Tetsunami, daughter of a branch of the Miyamoto clan that paid reverence to the deity of time and space. The ephemeral existence, but along with that, their Daoist tenants also taught them to make the most of that time for improvement and self-perfection. She did not seek anything beyond the scope of her skill, but instead, the tasks before her in the academy were aimed to be kept simple.
Mimiru had a list of specific jutsu she needed to perfect before she could graduate and become a full fledged kunoichi of the Hidden Leaf Village. Even as a student of the medical field, and a performer through her music instruments, she needed to be able to capable of the combat basics and how to counter them as well. The Kai technique was one of the jutsu in the list of required. With her scrolls handy, she took her time and memorized the chakra formation and then the hand sign before attempting it. The surge of chakra through her body felt like a small zap, and it was likely to awaken her to her senses if put under the effects of illusory techniques.

As Mimiru studied the scrolls for the basic jutsu the next technique was the Transformation technique. Knowing how to fool opponents and also to assume a disguise was going to be an essential part of ninja life. As she worked with the technique, transforming herself into copies of students she saw about the Academy, she thought it might also be useful for costume changes mid-performance. It was a note she decided to jot down in her own personal book for later.
Quote:
โข Learned Henge no Jutsu | Rank E |
Continuing down the list of requirements, the devout Tetsunami found herself with a more complex technique. Mimiru had issues with the Bunshin no Jutsu before, but she took a deep breath as she focused on the scroll's instructions as well as the guidance that had been given to her by an instructor. As the blue haired girl practiced, she managed to pull off the jutsu several times. Each clone more precise than the last until she was indistinguishable from them to the unskilled eye. "Back-up dancers.", she remarked simply before checking that task off her list.

โข Learned Bunshin no Jutsu | Rank E |
Mimiru was having a good deal of success in completing her mastery of the various techniques she would need before graduation could even be considered. The next was the Kawarimi no Jutsu, or the Substitution Technique. It was not a particularly difficult skill to master, but more importantly was timing and that would come with practice. Each use of the skill, Mimiru found herself switching places with a log she was using for training. When she was confident she had a handle on the jutsu, she moved on to the next one. While there was no rush for perfection, existence was ephemeral, and time wasted was unforgivable to those of her religion.
Quote:
โข Learned Substitution Technique | Rank E |
Walking on Water, a ninja art that all were expected to have some mastery of before graduation. Mimiru knew the basic concepts, but the actual practice had left her soggy on many occasions during her time in the Academy. Still, with enough focus and dedication on the simplicity of coating her feet in chakra, She was using them to stabilize herself atop the water's surface of the practice pond. It was enough to demonstrate mastery for graduation, but it would likely take further practice to be considered second nature, like some ninja had the ability to do.

โข Learned Art of Walking on Water | Rank D |
The next skill on Mimiru's slightly lengthy list of techniques she needed a handle on before graduation was the Art of Walking on Walls. Similar in performance to the Water Walking technique, the blue haired kunoichi found herself taking to this particular skill a lot easier than the prior. The ideas for performance application only served to inspire her as she walked up and down a tree in the practice area. It could certainly be used to wow a crowd, that much was for sure. Though, still, more practice was likely going to be required in the days and years to come if she were to make it as simple as walking normally.
Quote:
โข Learned Art of Walking on Walls | Rank D |
The last of the required Academy techniques she needed to master before graduation was the Shunshin no Jutsu, and it was a skill considered holy by her particular religion of Zelelism. Failure to master this skill would be unforgivable, but fortunately for her, Mimiru had already been given several private lessons on shifting her position using her chakra at high speeds from the elders of her temple. Putting it to practice so she might demonstrate it, if necessary for graduation requirements was more or less like flexing one's arms for her. Some would be envious of her ability to handle the complex technique, but such envy was only a symptom of the ignorant to the blessings of Zelel.

โข Learned Body Flicker Technique [ Shunshin no Jutsu ] | Rank D |
To fully demonstrate her skill and readiness for the shinobi life, Mimiru then put herself to practicing from a select group of jutsu, including a few known only to her clan through their unique chakra release. The ability for a Miyamoto to connect to the soul of another individual by their own chakra strands was considered essential. The performing medical kunoichi trainee attempted the link on a few passing students who were willing to assist her. It took some time and a few attempts, but she found herself rather proficient in performing the ability. If the elders of her family could see her, they would be smiling in approval of her mastery.
The next of her clan's Soul Release techniques she needed to master was the art of Spiritual Sight. It was a skill that would allow her and those she linked with to be able to see from one another's perspectives. It was what made Miyamoto-clansmen and women successful spies. When they were linked to another, it was like having another set of eyes on the situation. She had tried the skill out before, but for good measure, she practiced on a few passing instructors. It was an odd sensation to be sure, and maybe she could use it for her performances to get an audience perspective on how she appeared on stage? Still, there was one last technique ahead of her before she could be considered proficient enough to move on from Academy life.
As a Medical Kunoichi, Mimiru was also expected to be able to diagnose illnesses and maladies afflicting her comrades. As such, the Shindan no Jutsu was on her list of skills to demonstrate mastery of before leaving the Academy life. Upon a training dummy in the medical classroom, she practiced applying chakra to her palms and using it to identify the injuries and instances of poison applied the the lifeless practice tool. It was almost like her Spiritual Connection, but this was more crude and at the same time more precise. It connected her with the body and less with what was inside a person. Still, with the Diagnosis technique under her belt, she was certainly ready to present herself as skilled enough to begin her career in earnest. Though, she still had a few tasks to perform around the Village itself, the bulk of the work was done.

As Hiroshi, after half an hour, reached the Academy, he opened the entrance door and was met by whom he dubbed as โCowboy-senseiโ. The man grumbled at the sight of Hiroshi and let out a sigh. โWhat're you doin' here, son?โ He didn't have a cigar in his mouth, so it was easier for Hiroshi to comprehend him. โI'm here to do everything I can to graduate so I can become a full-fledged shinobi, Cowboy-sensei,โ he said. โWhadja call me, boy?"โ He looked at Hiroshi irately. โOh, sorry. I don't know your name, sensei,โ Hiroshi replied quickly. The man grumbled and told Hiroshi to follow him into the Academy. โClean this 'ere room and I'll consider helping you out,โ Hiroshi glared at the man as he looked back at Hiroshi. The classroom had papers on the floor, random scribbles on the blackboard, and candy wrappers on the floor. โDoncha wanna graduate, boy? This is yer first mission from me,โ He smirked at the young shinobi, but Hiroshi quickly calmed himself down at the thought of graduating. โFine. This shouldn't take too long,โ he said with determination as he took the squeegee sat beneath the blackboard and cleaned it with such speed and proficiency, turning it nigh-spotless. He then looked back at Cowboy-sensei as he leaned against the frame of the door unwaveringly. Hiroshi then ran across the classroom and picked up all of the trash that included candy bars and paper and tossed them into the trash can. He then went on to fix the papers that had been quite unorganized, almost too unorganized, at the teacher's desk. He then used the Body Flicker technique to appear immediately besides Cowboy-sensei. โDone.โ He said in a cool, collected tone, as if it were a breeze. The man gave a sarcastic applause and a fake gasp for Hiroshi. (โWhy is this guy so irritating?โ) The young shinobi thought to himself as he tried to remain as expressionless as possible. โGood job, kid. Now follow me, we've gotta get you ready,โ he patted Hiroshi on the head as he began to walk. Hiroshi, surprised, followed after him moments after.
After a few minutes, the pair reached the roof of the Sagehara Academy in a free space. โWell, boy,โ Cowboy-sensei said after holding up his hand to halt Hiroshi as he continued to walk several feet ahead of him before turning around to face him. โYer gonna need this,โ he said to Hiroshi as he lifted his hand as a lightning bolt shot towards Hiroshi. When it struck the young shinobi, he let out a agitated groan - the feeling of being shocked was quite painful, though his adrenaline caused his body to react to the pain lesser than what it had been. โWhat the hell was that for?!โ Hiroshi exclaimed moments after he was shocked. โI know what yer affinity's are, sonny,โ he said as he let loose another bolt of lightning towards Hiroshi as he shouted in pain again. โAre you trying to kill me? If you wanted to do so, you should have let me know so it can be a fair fight instead of you fighting me like a coward and trying to take the easy way out!โ Hiroshi's voice was filled with fury. โCalm down, boy. I ain't tryna kill you... yet,โ he said calmly as he chuckled. โWhy are you doing this? And what does knowing my nature affinities have to do with anything?โ Hiroshi had calmed down a bit, though he was still agitated - mostly through the shock.
โBecause ya need to be trained to be resistant to electricity before you try using Lightning Techniques, ya dingus,โ Cowboy-sensei looked at Hiroshi with an intrigued stare. โSo,โ Hiroshi said after a few moments, โyour goal is to try and get me to be resistant through repetitively striking my body with Raiton techniques in order for me to get used to it and eventually become nullified to it, right?โ a split second after he finished, Cowboy-sensei launched another lightning bolt at Hiroshi as he groaned, trying his best not to scream and to endure with every bit of might within him. โYer half right, boy,โ he responded to Hiroshi as he sent another lightning bolt his way after a few moments. (Clean the blackboard, organize papers, and store teacher scrolls in order to keep the academy clean and strong. (โDamn...! I forget how gruesome it is to become a full-fledged shinobi,โ) Hiroshi thought to himself as he groaned tremendously.
After an hour of this repeated process with breaks in-between, Cowboy-sensei finally let down his hand and put both hands in his pocket. โGet yerself some rest, kid. We can continue this later on,โ Hiroshi looked angrily at Cowboy-sensei and shook his head. โThe day is not over yet. If it's not training, I can do other missions, so what will you assign, Cowboy-sensei?โ Cowboy-sensei glared at Hiroshi. โI beg your pardon? Refer to me as Soyoka-sensei, boy,โ he said. โBut haven't you gotten used to me calling you 'Cowboy-sensei'?โ Hiroshi said jokingly. โI'll let you call me 'Cowboy-sensei' if you complete 8 missions by the end of the day,โ Soyoka said as he looked to the sky and shielded his eyes with his hands. โAnd judging by the sun, you've got about.... 5 hours, I'd say,โ he chuckled. โI don't like how easy this seems though you make it sound so difficult. What is the catch?โ Hiroshi said, suspecting Soyoka of something sinister. โJust make sure you finish or I'll ensure you'll never become a shinobi again. Yer first tasks are to clean up -โ Hiroshi kissed his teeth, โI haven't even fully recovered from you shooting lightning bolts at me! Just give me some time. That is only fair, no?โ Soyoka laughed loudly and shook his head. โYer first task is to clean up the dojo, sonny. 5 hours,โ Soyoka flickered out of the roof right before the eyes of Hiroshi. โWhat a dumbass,โ Hiroshi said as he sprawled on his back, resting a bit before going to clean the dojo.

Returning, slowly but surely, to the Academy, Hiroshi walked to see Soyoka leaning against the wall near the doors of the entrance near the academy. The young man, full of fire and rigor, had been ready to become a shinobi. His heart was racing, albeit not entirely nervous. He had learned the basics of being a ninja and was ready to graduate from the Academy. He had bigger things he had wanted to accomplish than simply cleaning up after people. He was completely ready to face all of the challenges as a shinobi. He learned all of his mistakes and sought to correct them, but was certainly going to fix them. A fierce shinobi was his goal - the most powerful of all Senju to exist to date. After some time, Hiroshi finally came to the doors and sought to open it before Soyoka spoke to him. โI spoke to someone about you graduating, since you finally completed all of the missions on time,โ his accent had been gone, which threw Hiroshi off a bit. โYour accent is gone, I see,โ he tried to play it off as if he had not been surprised, though the opposite was the case. โI put it on when I'm feeling relaxed and comfortable. When I talk to the higher-ups, I tend to speak like this. Speaking of which, someone should be coming to see you soon. Go inside, Senbu,โ Hiroshi scoffed at Soyoka's response, as Senbu [ๅฎฃๆซ, meaning angry, displeased, agitated] was a play-on words with his clan, the Senju. Nonetheless, Hiroshi stood for a few minutes, in anxiousness, as he pulled open the doors to the Academy and walked in. Soyoka smirked as he lit his cigar and flickered elsewhere.

โฐโฐโฐ |SHINOBI โข INFO| โฐโฐโฐ โข Tsutsui Katsumi | S+ | Konoha | Jounin | Tai-jutsu | Tai-jutsu | As Hiroshi trudged down the academyโs corridor and passed by one of the open training area, a voice would project out to grab his attention. โOiiiiiiiiiiii!!!! You, Hiroshi right? Get your a** in here, come on, hurry yer a**! The energetic words would echo out loudly into the hall, originating from the form of a figure at the further wall of the open room, the distinct sound and motions of clapping to prompt him into hurrying up. The woman would be leaning on a rail awaiting him, wearing relatively revealing clothes and a lathes jacket that may as well have been pointless being as it was worn so loosely that only the small of her back and forearms were actually covered.
Placing her gloves hands on her hips the muscular woman, looked him over as he approached, grinning at him with an energetic and confident grin. โWhatโs up little guy, you need to move with more enthusiasm, youโre at that young age where you should be brimming with the energy of youth!!! She basically yelled this at him at a volume unneeded for close proximity, fist pumping one hand full stretch into the air as she did, the comment being made regardless of how fast he approached her. Dropping her hand and folding her arms across her chest, using one to signal toward herself before folding the hand back to her chest and speaking as she did. โNames Tsutsui but you can just call me Sensei or big sis if you like, Iโm a Jounin instructor in the village, good to meet ya kiddo! Iโm here today to put you through the ringer so to speak, see if got what it takes to make this yours, ya know? But first howโs about you introduce yourself and tell me why you want to be a shinobi!โ She spoke quickly and sounded pretty excited, putting a notable amount of emphasis on the word kiddo, probably coming off as if she was looking down on him for his age by doing so if he had issues with arrogance.
As Hiroshi came closer to the woman who had certainly surprised him, he began observing her closely. He saw that she had on worn clothing that revealed herself while being full of energy. (โYou'd think for someone who want want to reveal themselves, they'd have something to actually... show,)โ he thought to himself. โHello, Sensei,โ Hiroshi said in a stern tone with a pan face, so as to not reveal any annoyance he had. โMy name is Hiroshi...โ he paused momentarily so as to not reveal that he was a Senju. โHiroshi Takao,โ he finally said, giving her his listed name. โThe reason I want to become a shinobi..โ he paused yet again for a few moments. โThe reason I want to become a shinobi is to protect what is mine.โ He looked at Tsutsui dead in her eye with vigorous resoluteness. โI want my family and anyone loved to me to be protected by me - that is my reason.โ Hiroshi had still been looking at Tsutsui in the eyes without blinking once. โAs for you putting me through the ringer,โ he continued, โNothing is ever too much for me. Bring forth whatever you please, sensei,โ he nodded slightly, as a form of bowing, so as to not come off as completely rude, waiting for the response of Tsutsui.

โฐโฐโฐ |SHINOBI โข INFO| โฐโฐโฐ Tsutsui Katsumi | S+ | Konoha | Jounin | Tai-jutsu | Tai-jutsu | โGotta say I like your confidence and reasoning Hiroshi, protector of what is his!โ She responded loudly almost immediately after he spoke, slapping a strong hand down on one of the young lads shoulders. At this point she would step back and proceed to point at the distant wall, a red flag attached to a small pole that had been stabbed into the wall being via brute force was present a good twenty feet up. โWell today Iโm going to have you do something that will test your skill, smarts, willpower and body all at once, then depending on your resultsโฆ.โ She stretched the last word as she pulled a fresh Konoha headband from one of her coats pockets, and showed it off by dangling it in front of him.
โThen this lovely headband can be yours! Now what youโre going to need to do is get that flag, while I go about impeding you from doing so, thereโs no time limit, itโll go until you succeed or surrender!โ She announced with a wide, enthusiastic grin, flourishing the headband in the air before putting it back in her pocket. Stepping away from him and scraping a line in the ground with the toes of one of her feet as if it were styrofoam, pointing at it and continuing the explanation of rules to this little test, raising a single finger toward him like counting. โNow firstly I am allowed to stop you by any means I see fit, though be doing so with some handicaps, I will be wearing weights to restrict my power and speed, I wonโt be using any form of nin-jutsu or gen-jutsu! Secondly, that line in the ground equals my point of action, meaning if you cross that line I can and will take action to put you back beyond it, at which point I will not be allowed to come for you.โ She had two fingers raised by this point and rose a third, using her other hand to signal at him, offering a competitive looking and daring grin. โThirdly you are allowed to use any means at your disposal to get over to and grab that flag, nin-jutsu, weapons, lethal force, the works if it leads to you touching the flag, which will end the test with an automatic passing grade to you! As a bonus to this, if you can either land a blow on my face or torso, knock me down or make bleed in any way then you will also be granted a passing grade and Iโll even put in a good word for you!โ The womanโs exam would likely sound like a monumental task, though the boy was likely smart enough to realize that getting the flag was an unlikely endeavour and this test was about how he tried to circumvent their differences. Then again the boy might also get focused on the potential, automatic passing options as well as those might sound like a very sweet offer.
Hiroshi would be able to see that the flag pool was about fifty feet away from her line in the ground, that is not adding its height, which was about another twenty feet up. The woman summon a set of weights in the air and caught them, her arm being dragged down and almost allowing said weights to strike the ground, itโs suddenly haunt from her tending her muscles creating a small burst of air and unsettled loose dust. Each of the large looking weighted bands had powerful looking straps, which she used to fasten them around her limbs, the woman making a few sounds indicating that she was experiencing some level of labour from their weight. After getting one on each leg she summoned two more, holding one in each hand and stretching the arms and testing their weight before placing one on the ground and looking at the lad, speaking in a slightly more serious tone โOhhh, you can take advantage of me putting these on and start now if youโd like, youโll need all the advantages you can get Hiroshi-kun!โ She said offering him a smirk as she started to put one of the two remaining weights onto an arm.
Upon being informed of his task, Hiroshi stood for a few moments, taking a few steps back from Tsutsui until he stood 10 feet away and smirked. โInteresting test you've got here, sensei,โ Hiroshi said to Tsutsui. ("This woman...") he began thinking to himself. ("She's got a slender build and looks to be in good shape,") he went on in his mind as he began to eye Tsutsui as if he were unimpressed. ("She also has these weights on her and I do not think they are simply to impress or her attempting to bluff. She also mentioned restricting herself to taijutsu and refraining from the usage of ninjutsu or genjutsu, which is quite odd,") Hiroshi help up a hand sign and began mustered up chakra. โYou are quite sure of yourself, sensei,โ Hiroshi finally said after his initial response towards Tsutsui. โBut I do think you have underestimated me by quite a bit,โ he said confidently. (โShe must prioritize herself in taijutsu. In that case...โ) Hiroshi continued to deduce what he had observed from the appearance of Tsutsui as he thought of several plans every five seconds.
Suddenly, a miniature gust appeared beside Hiroshi, and from it a clone of himself. โI know that this is technique is for a Jonin, so try not to be too surprised when a Genin uses it,โ Hiroshi had certainly been bluffing, but his tone was convincing he was using the Shadow Clone Technique instead of the regular Clone Technique, which he had been using in actuality. He stood upright in the exact same position as his clone and smirked at Tsutsui. โSensei, I truly hope you are prepared for this,โ Hiroshi had still continued to muster chakra and slammed his palms onto the floor as his clone began to rush towards Tsutsui. (โThis clone... if only it could actually do something,โ) Hiroshi thought to himself.
The earth in front of him had molded into a stone three feet in width in which he launched at Tsutsui's torso before creating the same styled stone and launching it at her face, blocking her view of Hiroshi. โ(Now if this is to work...)โ he thought before creating a third stone and launching it a few feet above Tsutsui. โDamnit! I missed,โ Hiroshi said quite angrily, though he certainly had an ulterior motive. By the time the first stone had came close to Tsutsui, the clone had done the same, charging with his arms behind his back. (โNow.โ) Hiroshi had timed everything to what he had planned initially as he sunk into the earth and moved just under Tsutsui, waiting for her reaction to what he had thrown at her.

โฐโฐโฐ |SHINOBI โข INFO| โฐโฐโฐ Tsutsui Katsumi | S+ | Konoha | Jounin | Tai-jutsu | Tai-jutsu | This young lad Hiroshi was entertaining, confident for an academy student, enough to claim she even underestimated him and this made her smirk a little. Having finished strapping on her weights and being positioned an appropriate distance from the line, Tsutsui would straighten and rotated them at the shoulders to get a feel for the weight. Observing the lads creation of a clone as he spouted a bluff that at least caught enough attention from her thoughts to cause her to tilt her head and gave a grin. โOh? Well letโs see your best then, I wanna know if all your big talk is just that or not little boyl!โ She Responded on a much more snappy and aggressive tone, sounding as if she had taken his words as some sort of personal challenge, an intimidating and serious look crossing her face.
The creation of a clone that might be of an advanced rank was something she would compliment if it were trueโฆ and take on head first as her appearance might suggest. Still she wouldnโt advance until the line was crossed so currently despite giving a menacing air at this point he was safe from her and she was simply waiting to see his plan in action, raising and arm and wiggling two fingers to tell him to โcome on,โ when he mentioned her readiness. The first rock throw heralded the beginning of the lads plan, the clone rushing forth with its flight, two more small boulders following similar paths to the first. Deciding on her counter the young Hiroshi would be able to see he take a step back and look to be turning away from the large first rock, but instead continuing the rotation and lifting a foot with a reversed roundhouse kick, her heel smashing through the rock with amazing speed and power. The large encumbering weights on her ankles did slow her down but not enough to make it look like she was having real difficultly, the extended leg pausing in mid air for a millisecond as she shifted the ankle she was balanced on to turn her body slightly and bringing the foot down heel first and solidly tapped the clones head, reducing it to smoke.
In a combination of fortune and misfortune for Hiroshi, his plan did indeed managed to remove him from the womanโs sight, her eyes having noted the second and glanced up toward the third to judge it, the plan was clever though he may have not realized that going near her even out of sight and underground was a bad idea . Her leg she had kicked with didnโt find the ground as she yet again shifted her weight and posture to face the still incoming rocks in next to not time, leg raising to full height before coming down with a grunt of force heel first and down with force akin to a shell. The second rock would shatter to dust with contact, the base of her foot tinged with a bit of pain due to recoil for kicking solid rocks, though this effect paled in comparison to the one of her foots heel crashing into the ground mere inches away from the face of the lad.
As her heel made contact with the ground a crunch and loud snapping sounds made their introductory chorus as the ground shook and cracked all around her position, fragments of the stone ground bouncing and churning about loudly for a few seconds. Hiroshi would find himself forced a few feet over and shaken up from this, though remaining unharmed he only had a very limited amount of time before she would spot him through the displaced ground, she ignored striking the third boulder as she could tell she was safe. โClever boy, what now youโve hidden yourself?โ She muttered as she tucked both her arms elbows into her own sides and balled her fists, knuckles toward the ground and then started very slowly draining them apart as if preparing for something. Hiroshi would be able to see traces of her through the new cracked floor pattern sheโd deigned to grant the room with her decorative touch, this meaning if he could notice her, then she would he.
(Ooc:Generally you can only do 3actions in a post, try to keep that in mind but as this is narrative and a test itโs fine ^_^, her not immediately figuring out heโs underground is represented in her not intentionally following up the heel drop ^_^, plus I wanna see your plan before I have her potentially ruin it slightly XD. You may ignore the terrain debuff. )

Tech info
โฐ Hooking Fissure | Rank X | Simple The user delivers a hook kick, using the back of their heel to target the opponent's body. Opponents stricken by this technique are knocked back five feet per rank of the technique regardless of being blocked
Double Fissure | Rank C | Training The user is able to perform a very fast 2-hit combination with any physical strikes from this style without consuming an additional activation. The second technique must be executed at or below the rank of the first.
Painful Sky Leg | Rank D | Simple The user lifts their leg into the air, slamming it down beneath them. Impacting the earth, this technique shatters the ground within fifteen feet of the user, creating an unstable footing within that area to all except the user who is practiced in such areas. All opponents within range of the shattered earth have a [1] point decrease in speed and agility. while inside the radius.
Moving Fissure | Rank A | Training By using a quick twist of the hips, the user can change the momentum of a kick that has been executed in order to change it's direction completely. Doing so requires half the cost of the technique be paid and the newly directed attack gains an additional [1] point increase to speed per rank of the technique. This ability may only be used once every three posts.
When the clone dispersed, Hiroshi knew that it was time to act as he suspected the woman to have ferocious speed and figured out his clone was a bluff. He heard the two boulders shatter and anxiously waited for the third - but he had only heard two. Amidst his relief, the ground thundered above him. In an instant due to reflexes, he switched positions with the third boulder he had launched at Tsutsui, but not before suppressing his chakra as much as he can. Taking this opportunity, he sprinted towards the flag. (โI've got only moments,)โ he thought to himself, mustering up chakra as he dashed towards the flag.
He created yet another clone that ran alongside him before it spread itself 20 feet to his right, still charging towards the flag. Hiroshi mustered chakra in his hands before stopping, taking a low crouching stance towards the ground as his clone continued to charge towards the flag. โI got past you. Isn't that a shame for someone you claimed only talk big?!โ Hiroshi taunted her with his condescending tone, finally relieving himself of using the Shadow Stealth Technique.
With this, he slammed his palms into the ground and formed a boulder of the exact same magnitude as the previous ones and launched it upwards towards the flag. โIf I can't reach it, then it will come to me!โ Hiroshi roared as he formed another boulder and launched it upwards in the direction of his clone; a few feet right of the direction of the flag. Hiroshi was getting tired as he had half of his chakra left, so he only sought to advance continuously without stopping as this would ruin the flow he was in and would dig him in a deeper hole. With his back turned to Tsutsui, he taunted her once again. โNow you come and do your job if YOU'RE not all talk, sensei,โ he emphasized calling her 'sensei' with sarcastic, arrogant, playful, spite.
(โDamn...โ) Hiroshi thought to himself. (โIf these next moves don't work, I'll fail to get the flag,โ) he was panting and hadn't realized. He was trying his absolute best, but was begrudgingly anticipating failure, beginning to hate his own weakness because of it.

โฐโฐโฐ |SHINOBI โข INFO| โฐโฐโฐ Tsutsui Katsumi | S+ | Konoha | Jounin | Tai-jutsu | Tai-jutsu | Swapping with his Boulder was a very clever choice but his attempt that would earn him points for sure, a clever ploy to say the least, though would it be enough? The answer would come right as he started calling her out as only talking bigโฆ. and if he was paying attention he would see the turn of her heading with a grin offered before she brought both of her forearms together, smashing the weights against one another in doing so. A resounding clang would herald a dome of dust exploding out for her in every direction as the vibrations through the air reached further than he or his clone had gone, vibrations with a force that would make his teeth feel like they were rattling passing through both he and his clone, stopping them in their place until the reverberations ended. Hiroshi would find the his body shaking for the first few seconds after the reverbs and echo the impact of her weights had created passed, delaying his use of the boulder creating jutsu he would aim at the flag.
What might seem fortunate was that Tsutsui made an immediate B-line toward the clone and not the real fellow, jumping when about half way up to it and clearing the whole distance between them with a heavy, knee bending impact on the ground, in a half crouched posture. Hearing his goad the woman would stand up straight and grab the clone by the scruff of its clothes, her grip inescapable as she heaved the clone through the air and after a full rotation, threw the clone like it was little more than a baseball. โYouโre trash talk is beginning to reach disrespect, Boy, letโs see if you can keep that confidence up or crumple in surrender before I shatter you!โ Her tone sounded harsh and carried with it the air of an actual threat, her eyes lit up dangerously if he chose to look at her. His clone would intercept the massive chunk of stone, exploding into smoke upon impact, though considering the whooshing noise of its flight, it was no surprise the stone would be knocked off coarse. As if to make matters worse for Hiroshi, Tsutsui was legitimately a tad annoyed at the boy and decided to inject some fear into him in response.
Crossing her wrists high above her head and the pumping them both down to her sides, fist ball and a roar of effort would herald and explosion of force, the woman opening the first three gates despite the overkill nature of doing so for the sake of theatrics. Even if Hiroshi was very close under the flag, this didnโt seem to matter as one second she was standing atop shattered ground with an aura of force around her, next she was standing right I front of him with disturbing levels of speed. โNow try not to die, Hi-ro-shi-kuuuunn!โ She yelling point black whilst stomping one foot into the ground with enough force to cause the ground to basically exploded, potentially tripping the boy onto his behind, a fist drawn back in preparation as she began swinging with visible effort. Hiroshi would find himself struck by her fighting spirit and intentional killing intent, the lads legs would feel like they were turning to jelly and his senses would start screaming at him that he was about to die, every one of his senses seemingly making time feel like it was slowing down as he looked up at the woman directly in front of him with the apart intent of crushing him into the ground, the fist coming toward him in a downward strike, her fist seeming gigantic. This would be the climax of his exam as if he was able to pay attention, the womanโs stomp had been WAY to forceful and it had created spidering cracks in every direction, including snaking up the wall and just as she seemed to start swinging, it would start dislodging from its the stone and fall out.
The lad was tasked with two apparent crisis here, first was that if he wanted to do anything, like lets say avoid dying(at least in his perspective), he would need to move of if the wayโฆ. but to do that would require him be able to move his rooted legs, heโd need a kick to his system to do so, maybe in the form of a small injury to snap himself out of it or a big burst of his remaining chakra reserves(20 cost Kai from battlefield presence, in this scenario it DOES cost him an action). Secondly as slow as her attack seemed to be coming, this could be chalked up to his adrenaline or something giving this impression and not the fact she was intentionally attacking with Minimal speed and was actually aimed short of him despite the fact she was so close(a fact of which he canโt perceive). The big problem for his exam if he were still able to think of the task at hand and not saving himself would be be that if he did dodge, the flag would land with the now terrifying seeming between the two of them, meaning if he were to dodge away from her, which would feel like the safe ideaโฆ. though it would seem with that decision there would be no getting the flag. Though on the other hand, if he could somehow fight against his instincts telling him certain death was in that direction, there would be a tiny change that she might not manage to get him before he got the flag, though this would involve slipping past her, an act that if successful though unbeknownst to him, would give him an automatic pass. Regardless of the results the lads legs and likely entire body would be shaking from the aftermath of the expose to her extreme pressure.
(Ooc: So with three actions, Hiroshi can escape her battlefield presence and dodge her attack(which will cost him 40stamina but Iโll be graduating him next post either way, so donโt worry about resources, if he tries something after getting out the way he will have 1action left, he can try for the flag with it but he will feel like thatโs gonna be very hard. Normally you wouldnโt be able to spend the amounts in requesting, this is to represent the concept of, going above and beyond in the face of apart death. He can do this all cool mentality or totally panicked, however you think heโd react, just getting out the way is all he really needs to do.
As the events quickly unfolded before his eyes with clear devastating effect and the shrill tone of Tsutsui, Hiroshi grew calmer. He always remembered the fact that his father told him that the moment he panicked in a dire situation, then it is only downhill from there. Aside from the fact that he was slightly disorientated from the clang of Tsutsui's weights and her overbearing presence that his body certainly felt, the young boy had remained focused, calm, and under control.
Hiroshi thought of a plan, but his body hadn't listened to him. (โDamn,โ) he thought to himself. He knew that something was holding him there - but he knew it was neither genjutsu nor ninjutsu, as Tsutsui restricted herself to only taijutsu. He remembered that if one were to be constricted in any sense, they could release themselves by using the Release [ Kai ] technique, in which he quickly did. As he saw the incoming flurry of destruction take place and the attack coming towards him, he begrudgingly evaded her attack.
Not trying to be in range of her due to his suspicion of her taking it up a notch, he flickered at the other side of the room, as far away as possible from Tsutsui. โDamn, this brutetess is annoying,โ he murmured panting, almost out of chakra. โHey, sensei! What's up with destroying the place when you're supposed to be guarding the flag, not making it easier for me,โ he shouted at her across the room irately. In reality, he knew he had a handful of options left, few of which would work in his current situation.
โIt looks like the flag is going to fall anytime now, sensei,โ he said with a bold tone. โAfter that, you won't be able to stop me, so you might as well skip and admit my victory,โ Hiroshi chuckled amidst panting heavily. He did not say anything further, awaiting the response of Tsutsui.

Still groggy from such an early morning after a long several days, the young Uchiha yawned and rubbed one of his eyes as he wandered through the front gates of the Academy shortly after dawn. He'd lined up several D-Rank missions for the morning, mostly focused around the academy. Apparently the recent issues with the Jashinists had left the school a little understaffed, and they'd reached out for help with minor tasks. His first mission of the day was to help chaperone a field trip just outside the village. The class wasn't going far, but extra eyes are always better with that many young kids running around. Today's lesson was in identifying various plants in the local environment. It was a subject that Himitsu had never been strong in, so he was certainly glad he wasn't involved in any actual instruction. The only plants he'd ever really bothered to remember were the ones that you really didn't want to touch. Luckily today his job was to make sure nobody wandered off, or got seriously hurt. So all he'd needed to know was what not to touch! With that knowledge, he got through the first few hours of the morning without any issues. [1]
Once back at the academy Himitsu got to work on his next job, repairing the training dummies around the practice fields. It wasn't particularly complicated work, but it was tedious hauling a few dummies out at a time, just to haul the broken ones back and repeat the process. He was grateful only about a dozen of them needed to be fully replaced. After those had been swapped out, he loaded up a smaller cart with burlap, twine, and straw and began the more entertaining part of the task. Humming to himself as he worked, Himitsu stitched up lightly torn dummies, stuffing the more damaged ones with straw first. A few dummies were still structurally fine, but were missing their outer coverings entirely. Those took a few more minutes, but the boy didn't mind it too much, finding the activity to be almost relaxing once he got into a groove. Once he'd finished up and put away the material he'd used, Himitsu grabbed a drink of water and checked the time. "Noon. Just about perfect. I can grab lunch and finish up that last mission at the same time. Then I can get some practice in." Himitsu grinned to himself and wandered into town. [2]
Himitsu wandered through the nearby market, looking for a specific bookstore with an odd logo. It took it a couple passes to noticed the little shop, as its entrance was actually tucked into the corner of the alleyway on which it was located. Despite a lack of confidence he was even in the right place, Himitsu stepped into the shop, nearly jumping as the little bell above chimed gently. A calm voice carried out from ahead, between a few rows of bookshelves. "Guess this is the place... The genin made his way through the shop, which was surprisingly cozy and inviting despite the odd exterior. A slightly older man with a moustache smiled at the boy and greeted him once again. Himitsu returned the warm greeting, and explained that he was there to pick up a specially requested book for a certain professor at the academy. The man fumbled around under the desk briefly before setting the book on the counter. He then quickly printed out a receipt and tucked it into the book for the professor's record. Himitsu then left the tiny shop and headed back toward the school once more, stopping briefly to grab some dumplings for lunch. By the time he reached his destination, he'd finished his meal and thrown out his garbage. The boy made a beeline for the professor's classroom, and politely entered when he was sure he wasn't interrupting anything. Himitsu quietly passed off the book, returning pleasantries when thanked by the teacher and making his exit.
With all his missions for the day complete and an hour to kill, the Uchiha teen decided to take a short nap before starting his afternoon training. Taking into consideration how the shade would shift in the next hour or so, Himitsu found a decent tree to rest in, just outside the academy gates. If he was right, the sun should start shining in his eyes after about an hour and mostly likely wake him up. If not, somebody would probably find him and holler at him eventually, especially when the kids all got out of school for the day. Once he'd climbed into his spot he nestled in until he was comfortable, using his jacket as a pillow as he closed his eyes and drifted off.

Yui had been coming straight from the academy on a bright and sunny afternoon when she had been relaxing after doodling more in her notepad. Instead of its usual lettering and messages to convey what she wanted, the young Genin was much too busy trying to perfect her first puppet ever. She wanted to make something amazing so that she could attain such status in the village like Sadayo or Sumika, both of who were well known kugutsu ninja. The little puppeteer had been sitting on the bench just outside the front door, busy sketching things in when a pair of footsteps would catch her attention. Two shadows overlooked her as Yui found herself the target of some of her fellow Genin. The first person was a fairly older Genin, the type that was probably held back for a couple years and for good reason. Yuri, his blue eyes shining behind that sea of black hair, would introduce himself to the girl by suddenly kicking her drawing pad out of her hands and sending her over the bench. "Long time no see, Mutey! I didn't think we'd see each other again!" His cohort, a younger compatriot with green eyes that held a great deal of fear from rebuttal of Yuri with the name of Nanba, would race around to the opposite side where she lied and then grabbed a hold of her book. "Whatcha got there? Drawing yourself a family since you don't have one?" Yui spotted this out of the corner of her eye and gripped the book while attempting to wrestle it from Nanba's hands. The two would struggle for a while, with the younger of the three silently grunting during the fight before the page which she had been working on would tear off from the main sheet.
"Let's see what we've got here." Yuri said, taking the torn piece of paper from Nanba and inspecting it. Yui, in the meantime, would try and charge forward to retake her property only to be blocked by the accomplice. The older of the two appeared more interested in the art of anything, and would look back up toward the girl. "So, you're making a puppet of your weird a** art, huh? Pretty fitting. The mute freak having some freak puppet. Lete make some corrections though." Yui struggled to get out of Nanba's grip while she heard thw terrible sound of her paper being torn apart into two pieces, then four and so on. The look on her face was nothing more than sheer horror while the bite sized pieces would litter the ground. Her eyes began to water, her mouth open in a furious emotion yet no sound would come out of her.
"There. It looks ten times better now." Yuri smiled nonchalantly while Nanaba would finally let Yui go and collect the pieces. By the time her hands could collect enough to fill them, the slight breeze had caused them all to scatter. Nanba would look up at his boss while praying that no sort of payment came his way, while he would laugh to himself and walk away. Nanba followed after him, leaving poor Yui to sit and sob to herself over her lost work.
