A private training field in the village had been reserved for each Hokage ever since the founding of Konoha. Obviously capable of extremely powerful techniques, each of them needed a place to hone their skills and sharpen their abilities to the max. Most Hokage’s spend most of their time training over again due to the fact that they didn’t get to sharpen their skills much with missions and other combat due to being stuck in the village for the majority of the time. The only real time they were needed was when the village’s ninja couldn’t handle a threat. Shihouin’s style wasn’t this at all, he was the person who spent the majority of time training and battling, so adjusting to such a lifestyle was difficult.

None the less they required he trained some higher level ninjutsu and create concepts based on techniques founded in Konoha’s history. With four ANBU situated near him around the large training field, Shihouin stood in the center of the field thinking over some of the techniques he could come up with. The first one that came to his mind pushed the limits on how raw chakra could affect a jutsu he already knew so much about. One of the ANBU’s spoke up. “Any ideas Lord Hokage?” Shihouin looked down to the ground, kicking the dirt with his barefoot. Since he had been attempting high-level fire release, there was no use wearing a flak jacket, shirt or shoes if they’d all burn up in the process. “My Goukakyuu. There’s no use increasing any of its properties besides its size. I can make one larger.” The ANBU was wearing a mask, but the silence made him imply that he was puzzled. “Big enough to cause collateral damage?” Shihouin realized where he was going with this. “The size of it will be massive, but you forget I can fly. Just stand by and prepare your Suiton for any accidents.”

Pressing both of his hands together, Shihouin prepared the concepts in his mind. The massive amount of chakra that the jutsu would take, along with the extra shape alteration to control the flames at that size would be tremendous. Luckily there was no use increasing the level and heat of the flames at all, since the technique would be used for high powered attacks against something like summons or attacks that one normally couldn’t handle. It definitely wasn’t a one on one technique, unless the situation called for it.

Each hand sign now played a key role in the formation of the technique as he began to collect the chakra he needed as rapidly as possible. Kneading so much in his lungs required some skill even for his level of chakra control, and a talent which he thought himself couldn’t muster. It felt as if his lungs were about to blow up and that the chakra he was kneading was impossible to completely mold. Even though he could perform techniques of this type of nature using a massive amount of chakra, he had never done so much. Simply adding chakra to something was definitely harder than he thought it would be.

There was also the issue of having enough air to breathe and expel the technique. If he couldn’t create enough lung space to properly breath, no matter how much kneaded chakra he had there was no way he would be able to release the technique in his full form. However, he had something to supplement for this, a proper breathing skill which he had kept with him since he was a genin. Using his diaphragm and lungs properly, he was able to create a tall space in which he could expand both lungs to their max and breath in more than normal the amount of air, just enough for the technique to function. Molding the seals had already been done, but the slow process in the training made it look like more should be added into jutsu, to save for the overall complexity of the technique. Each ANBU thought that too as they on looked the Hokage who seemed to be struggling with the jutsu.

Before they could assume that the jutsu would fail, Shihouin leaned his head forward to the sky and blew forth like a raging dragon. The size of it made the just appear as if it was moving slowly, a giant ball of flame which was colored red and glowed like a dying sun shot forth from his mouth. The roaring and cracking flames shadowed the training field, that area and the whole district behind him. Each ANBU looked up in awe at the technique and so did Shihouin. As big as it was and as high as it traveled, it marinated proper shape for a distance which was easily 50 meters before it began to slow down and die down. No doubt the villagers had witnessed it as well.

The next jutsu on his list would be something based off a previous Konoha exclusive technique. It was similar to Rasengan in that it was based off another jutsu, but the mechanics however were entirely custom and tailored specifically to the user. Shihouin wanted to use Hatake Kakashi’s ‘Raikiri’ as a base for the technique. With his physical ability, Sharingan and close to mid-range battle style, having a technique which he could easily conjure up in the midst of battle was good. Even though Rasengan was something that he could access by talking to Ayame, it was better to use a technique like this. One of the ANBU spoke out. “Rasengan is a technique which would be good in your hands. We can always gather Ayame and if need be, force her to use it so you can use Sharingan to copy it.” Shihouin thought about seeing Ayame, and imagined her trying to put a Rasengan through his face. “As cool as I think Rasengan is, the concept I have down is something that I can use with fire manipulation. My battle style is similar to Hatake Kakashi in some ways, which is why I want a ninjutsu like that.” Shihouin focused the chakra to his hand, and at this stage it was completely invisible to the naked eye.

Instead of increasing the level of his flesh to compensate for the technique, Shihouin would keep a tiny layer of chakra around his hand to prevent himself from being burned. It would also keep the technique from accidentally failing and killing him, since discharging the ‘layer’ of chakra around his hand would cause the technique to dissipate away from him, in most cases. From here on, he began to conceptualize an original form of change in nature and change in form with his chakra. The explicit level of control required would be difficult, but easy to perform after being trained. He began to allow his chakra to take a change in nature, which turned it into lively fire which burned from his hands. From here on, the technique would have no practical application. Simply adding fire to the hands wouldn’t allow him to do any real damage.

So instead of letting his hand burn as if he had submerged it in a bon fire, Shihouin used his chakra and began to make changes in its form, by compressing it. This made the fire appear as if it was burning lower, which kept the level of heat from dissipating out from his hand and giving away the level of the technique. As difficult as this was, he wasn’t done. He began to simultaneously perform extreme amounts of changes in nature and changes in form. Compressing this level of heat into a small flame was difficult to say the least but possible. As the heat began to rise, the change in color and change in nature began to drastically increase as well.

The technique turned blue, and to Shihouin’s own surprise the chakra appeared to be nothing more than chakra. With this part of the technique finalized, he would need to test it out. One of the anbu members commented. “If I hadn’t seen you form the technique I would assume it was nothing but chakra…” Shihouin smiled. “The heats all ‘compressed’ in the jutsu. I can definitely feel it. If it’s going to work like Raikiri then…” Shihouin took off towards a tree far enough from him at high speed. The tree was at least a good thirty meters away which gave him plenty of time to increase his speed to an extremely high level.

From the vision of the ANBU, Shihouin was no longer moving realistically for any type of battle application. Even though his running and body had been poised correctly for such speed, by now he was experiencing tunnel vision, which made it difficult for him to react. However, with the Sharingan he could react just as easy as normal, by expanding his field of vision to read the movements of oncoming shinobi. A technique, ‘Enryu’ which was falsely similar to Raikiri needed prep time against thicker objects because Shihouin’s own hand was not ‘enhanced’ to say. For armored opponents he would need to run to create the appropriate speed, but unlike Raikiri he could use it at close range. The heat would allow his hand to burn through human flesh and bones and reduce them to nothing but mere ashes. Even though it seemed to be a poor copy, he had created his own original technique.

After crashing into the tree of choice, there was nothing but a burnt hole left in the tree, with his hand extended all the way through it. The jutsu faded as if it was nothing more than chakra itself, and Shihouin looked at his hand and examined bruises. Most definitely something as soft as a human, and even some metals would fall prey to this jutsu. Luckily for him, it’s only function wasn’t a jab. He could still grab and rapidly heat objects anyway he wanted.

Hana rushed to the private training grounds. She had gotten the call from an ANBU. Basically the hokage wanted her to see how strong ninja train and to perhaps participate in his training. Hana instantly accepted and rushed to the grounds. She would do anything to help Shihouin become the best hokage ever.

Once there on the grounds the ANBU member led her to where Yosh was training. Obviously he was doing serious training. How else could he have done that to a tree. She had arrived just as he finished. Just after his jutsu cooled down. Hana was definitely impressed that was for sure.


"You need my help Shi-sensei?" she asked daring to use a nickname now. She felt she was close enough to him that she could do so. After all she was a favorite of the hokage for the moment. She wasn't sure if he would get bored of her or not, but she'd continue to try to stay this way until she had no more use for her.

The ANBU member that had told her to come spoke quickly to her. "Hokage-sama wanted you to learn how to avoid strong attacks. Because at your level you can't combat against them. You must learn how to avoid them and counter attack when they show a weakness. But for today you needn't worry about attacking the hokage. He decided to kill two birds with one stone."

Hana nodded at his logic. "Okay I'll start dodging now!" she told the man as she dashed off in a straight line. She would then plan on doing zig zags and such once he came after her with his next attack.

Shihouin smiled, finally some one to fight. The thing he hated the most was training without the situation being in actual combat. Setting was more important to him than anything, and he was going to to teach Hana in the same way. He felt like he was a genin again, like a little kid who needed help training. This was good though, he could show her his battle style and maybe she could learn from it. With her being a genin and all, it would be good for her to pick up on a solid style. She had a lot of room to grow and he had a lot of room to teach her.

Each of them stood off from one another, separated by empty space on the training field. They were five meters apart approximately, a good range for the both of them and their battle styles. Shihouin waited until Hana got into position after the ANBU explained how he wanted the training to work. Even though actual combat would be great, she could try to throw in a few attacks if she wanted and use clones for diversions if she thought she could pull it off.

Her first train of thought was to distance herself from Shihouin entirely, which was a good move for someone who wasn't scared of attacking first. Shihouin however decided to make things interesting. As soon as she decided to take off from her position he reached in his pocket. Reaching his hands into the close shuriken pouch on his hip, he threw three kunai directly at her feet. They were aimed well and thrown exceptionally fast. With her moving away, Shihouin aimed them so the moment her foot took the next step down on the ground, the shuriken would meet her feet, while they stopped to create power for the next movement. With her only having two feet to target, the last shuriken was aimed for her chest.

Hana gasped as the shuriken hit her right foot. She barely had time to move her left one so it just grazed it. Hana was able to use battou to deflect the shuriken at her chest. The girl was lucky for the super serum Shinshou had given her. She quickly pulled the shuriken out of her foot and began to hop away with her left foot. She did hand signs as she did so.

Her water whip was called forth. Hana wasn't sure what he would use. But he just used a fire technique of some kind a little while ago. This was all she had to use for the time being. As her foot healed she stood on her other. The one that was only cut slightly. She waved her whip around and aimed for his face. She didn't hold back in the least.

After she would use this she would use her other hand to launch finger bullets at him. Making him go on the defensive.

Of course the shuriken had been aimed for that situation, but Shihouin honestly didn't expect it to work. He expected her raise her foot up and land on her heels and simply bring the balls of her feet back down on top of the shuriken and 'press' them into the ground. Now, that she'd been cut by the shuriken she knew about the tactic. Shihouin figured she wouldn't get hit by it again if he tried, so there was no use in trying it again.

Manipulating his chakra into his hand, Shihouin began to focus on manipulating the layer of chakra around his hand. Hana wouldn't be able to see this invisible layer of chakra unless she had the respective ocular technique for it of course. He spoke to her, their techniques had been called forth at the same time. He smirked and almost laughed. "That's like the only technique I've ever seen you use. I'm going to have to teach you some of my fire. Avoid or get hit!" This was the first time he planned on opening Sharingan against her.

All he needed was two tomoe to read her movements and he could figure out the rest of the predictions himself just like any skilled ninja could. At a speed several times greater than her own, Shihouin rushed forward while preparing the technique in hand, still with the invisible layer of chakra. The distance between them was no larger than ten meters at glance, which he would easily close down in what might seem to her as a blur of movement. What would she do? The moment he started moving she would have to react accordingly and make the proper move. He had seen through her water whip the first time. She couldn't use the same trick twice.

She gasped as he ran at her. She'd seen the red of his sharingan. It was only her second time seeing any. He had two tomoe. This would be extremely difficult. Could she do it? The sharingan was really powerful. Not to mention the way the clan used their sharingan was even more deadly. She wondered why he was even using it in the first place. He could easily take her without his sharingan. He had more speed than her.

She huffed as he said that. She supposed she should learn some more water jutsu. This was one of her only techniques that wasn't as close ranged as her others. She had so many good closed ranged attacks. But she should learn some more jutsu that kept her farther away from her opponent.

Wait, he was going to teach her his fire? She'd love to learn fire. She felt comfortable with water. But fire was another matter. Fire was great for attacking. Water was great for all kinds of things. She knew that just from her water clones and water whip. Though she would have to stop using the stupid whip. She needed better jutsu. If he was willing to help her train for her next element she'd be ready. But first she would deal with what she had in front of her.

She stopped her whip and tried to sidestep to the right. She thought about the sharingan. So it could help predict her movements? Well what if she waited for the last second and then slid her bones out? He was faster than she thought. She barely had enough time to slide the bones out of her hands to slice at him.

Spoiler:

What was this? What? First they both met gazes with Sharingan. Was there even a need to fight the battle after that? Shihouin could have easily caught her in an illusion and went from there, but there was absolutely no need to press the issue about the Sharingan. The only reason he'd chose to actually use Sharingan was to watch her chakra mold itself for her bloodline limit techniques. Of course she was going to defend her self with that bloodline, so he had to make the appropriate counters to allow himself to react.

The Sharingan was more so for the serum than anything... What could she do with it? Or rather, what would the serum do in the middle of a situation where she needed to call on an ability that could change her life, or her powers. He wouldn't want to run into anything that she couldn't control, and the Sharingan would be safety for that.

As he increased his speed for the final rush towards her. Keeping an eye on her movements with his Sharingan, as she tried to sidestep him to her right, he would quickly extend his left fist -the one without chakra- and maneuver it around her attacking arm and land a solid punch right in her face. His running speed and body had been adjusted so the momentum of his body would add extra weight to his punch. If she hadn't protected the bones in her face or anything, at that speed she would fly back and suffer a broken jaw... At least.

Spoiler:

Hana had little to NO time to react. Luckily the training with Ayame helped her greatly. To avoid this attack she'd have to use EVERY ounce of speed she could muster to avoid dying. Ayame's training with swords helped her more than anything in battle. Because she was faster than the average ninja her rank.

Her dance of thorn wouldn't be enough with this attack. Though just in case she made bones in her body poke out from everywhere. If she couldn't stop his attack with her bone sword she'd need to harm his hand so he wouldn't hurt her as bad. She didn't know where he was going to hit her. But she would bring the sword to protect her chest, neck, and face. That way all her organs would be protected. At the least the important ones.

She used half of the technique of her wind cutter. She hoped that combined with everything else would give her that extra burst of speed she needed block his attack. She just used the part of the technique where it would increase her speed as she blocked by using chakra to work the muscles in her arms.

Spoiler:

Even though he was Hokage, there was no way any of his physical attacks would hurt her at all. She was a Kaguya capable of manipulating her bones to increase the rigidness of her own body to protect her from physical attacks. With that type of talent, Shihouin's Sharingan was able to notice at the last second she solidified the impact area and allowed a few spikes to come out of her jaw. A fractured jaw was at minimum what he was hoping for, but she was capable of ignoring that type of attack.

With a head set like stone and cased in a metal housing, the vibrations wouldn't be enough to knock her out since she increased the sturdiness of her entire head. The only ting she had to deal with now was momentum. Shihouin's fist connected to her face and a thud along with a plush fleeing of blood raced through his attacking fist. Her body would go back some three meters from the pure force of the jutsu, but even without the serum she would simply stand back up and get back in the fight.... Lucky.

Shihouin held his bleeding hand. Nothing but a minor wound but he was definitely bleeding. A flesh wound like this wasn't enough to stop him now, nor at his level at genin. He was completely ready to deal with any type of physical attack no matter what it was. In theory it wad dumb to try fight one of those types in close combat, but he had lee-way with her since she was only a mere babe being just promoted to Chuunin.

With his technique prepared, he watched as she fell back. The blue 'chakra' on his hand would pour out quickly into the form he needed it to be. Hopefully she would wake up soon. As the water-like chakra flowed from his hands into the shape of a blade, he barked a command at Hana while she was getting up. "Hurry! Throw everything you got towards me!" He literally meant everything she had. Jutsu, shuriken, whatever she could pick up, he wanted directly at him.

As his fist connected with her jaw, Hana felt a few things crack. Luckily she WAS a kaguya. Meaning broken bones or fractures could heal quickly. She was knocked off her feet and into the ground. Though she only touched the ground with her body for a few seconds before getting back up. She watched how he formed that chakra sword type thing. She wasn't sure what it was but she watched him carefully as she went to use her next attack.

"Hurry! Throw everything you got towards me!" Hana nodded. She knew Shi would be able to handle himself. She made bone shuriken and kunai as well as senbon. They shot out of her hands as well as some finger bullets. She then pulled out a scroll. This scroll let her summon a about twenty more kunai and shuriken to throw at him.

While he would be dealing with those she concentrated the chakra she had in the muscles in her legs. Then she used her running rip and ran at him with her sword held out horizonally to her left side. Meaning when she passed Shihouin they would have a few feet between them with a sword that he would have to deal with. More than likely he wouldn't be able to attack her as she ran past him, considering he would have had to deal with her projectiles and then when she ran past him he would probably be dealing with recovering with however he moved.

Spoiler:

With his jutsu complete, the sword had been formed loosely in that it had only reached about the average katana length. It's wavy, cone like appearance with the flaming like appearance of embers of 'chakra' come off of it looked dangerous to the user and too the opponent, but Shihouin had complete control of every inch of the chakra. Too bad the shape manipulation had a specific application, because he could spread the chakra out flat and create a broadsword and guard with that instead of just using it offensively. However Shihouin had a technique which was just like that that his body was already began to conjure up.

With Sharingan, he had time to prepare the onslaught of attacks. As the tools began to come one by one, you could see the 'chakra' act like a wet water whip, slashing and destroying everything to ash or cutting it in half with no effort. As he dealt with the onslaught of kunai, the 'chakra blade' stretched shape almost unknowingly, and dealt with a majority of tools that were issues, and not the ones that would come too close to his clothes or miss him entirely.

With Hana coming up with a full on attack, he had been prepared without moving simply because he could see the application of chakra to he body for speed. So with all these attacks coming directly for him what was he left to do? He waited until the moment right before extending the blade and extending his reach slow, and simply stood there in front of her blade, with the sword guarding it. In all honestly, at the last second neither of them could move to change things so the blade should end up getting cut, and if it didn't he had plan two.

Hana watched almost as if it were slow motion as his blade grew longer. She didn't expect it to be able to cut things. She assumed it would just hurt flesh or something. But she was very wrong. She continued on with her attack. She'd hoped that he wouldn't be able to guard her blade. She didn't have any idea as to how to get close enough to injure him. Not to mention she was limited on jutsu that could keep her opponent away from her. She needed more long range attacks.

She rushed him though was still surprised when he blocked her with his blade. Her own cracked. It didn't break but she was sure her blade would need to be replaced at some point. Most likely soon. Otherwise if she engaged in another fight it may break all the way. She'd hate that. After all her sword was a present from Ayame.

As he stopped her she quickly made a blade with her left hand. A bone blade and slashed at Shi's face. She'd hope he would back up and give them room. As soon as she slashed she would back away from him as well and prepare another attack with her kunai.

He could see all of her movements, every single one of them in high detail. He knew when she was going to attack before the moment she could actually make an attack, so why was she trying to fight Sharingan up close and personal? He definitley wasn't a taijutsu master in anyway, but he was far from being ill prepared to deal with opponents, even someone from the Kaguya clan in close quarters combat. H knew what he was doing.

Luckily for her, he had held back on the technique and decided to end it before it could completely melt her blade. The metal was superheated now, and long the broken lip of the impact area on the katana was vibrant red and it swelled from the heat and sagged a little bit. The blade was done for no matter what, and hopefully she could pick up a new one. Maybe he could treat her to a new one from old man Jiro's store. She'd definitely be able to pick up a good weapon from him, something that would last long and never loose it's edge. Hell, old man Jiro might make him make it for her.

In a stopped position he was a sitting duck against members of his rank, but he could deal with Hana with Sharingan. It was fun using Sharingan again, and while he continued to build up the energy for his final S Rank technique, he kept his mobility limited so he focus properly. With Sharingan, he could see everything and react, without even trying. The Uchiha blood running in his veins afforded him a lot of skill.

As she formed a bone sword his hands moved towards a guard position, positioned to allow him to react to close range attacks. With his quick hands, he moved his wrist quickly using Sharingan to counter her movements by moving before she could consciously, predicting her movements with the third tomoe. His quick arms would fire up towards her wrist and catch her hand while his other one would simultaneously push her back away from him into a soft rolling tumble.

Spoiler:

Hana watched as her blade slowly became red hot. Her precious blade was going to be ruined. She'd been ready to slash at him but was surprised to find herself on the ground. She couldn't even see his move. She definitely needed to train and work on her speed.

She stood up quickly and pulled a kunai out of her pouch. She only had a few more. About five she counted. She threw two at Shihouin while quickly moving farther away from him. She watched his moves as she prepared another jutsu. So now her close ranged attacks wouldn't work. She'd have to come up with something else.

Out of techniques all ready? Of course she was, but if she honed her taijutsu style a little bit more she could be a good opponent. It was like she was forgetting that as long as she had her bones protecting her body if she created a layer underneath her skin, no physical attack and even some jutsu would not work on her. She could fall and get back up again, and continue to fall and get back up again without even being hurt. Plus if she increased her stamina, dexterity and speed more she could put on a lot of effort into dodging attacks without tiring.

However, Shihouin's next technique would show the importance of learning more than just normal techniques. One of the best weapons was elemental ninjutsu for anyone looking to further their skills within the art of ninjutsu. With the prepared chakra surrounding his body in complete invisibility, she would have a hard time dealing with this attack if she was actually an opponent who intended to kill him. Sort of like a rip off of rotation, this jutsu put its strength and its power into destroying everything around it... Just like a true fire breathing Uchiha.

The two kunai she threw at him didn't seem to move fast enough as the technique activated. They slowed down in mid air, almost like he had some sort of telepathic hold on them. Clumps of grass and loose debris began to splatter everywhere around his position and a surge of dented earth began to roll out from under his feet. Needless to say, the kunai did not reach him at all, and she could easily watch as the paper burned up on the hilt and the black color began to grow with a deep molten red. The blue 'chakra' around his body rapidly expanded like an explosion ten meters from his center, pushing and blowing everything out from it away. The ANBU team jumped away and prepared suiton, due to the trees that fell over and instantly caught blaze.

One of them jumped in front of Hana to protect her from the shock wave that traveled ahead of the technique. He grunted from the pressure as he dug his legs into the ground, and endured the technique. Hana didn't need to be protected, but he knew that his life was not as important as hers. The other ANBU launched a suiton that had no effect until they realized it would require a great deal of chakra. With the technique suppressed now, they focused their elemental on the surrounding area as Shihouin stood clear in the epicenter of the blast.

After they dealt with the burning area, Shihouin gripped a kunai in his hand and twirled it about for a little bit, letting it transform over and over again into objects and different weapons as he spoke. "Sorry about the collateral damage, I guess I'm going to have to make watch of that while I'm in the area. I wouldn't want anyone getting caught up in that jutsu. Luckily, that technique gave me another idea... But today is going to be about you Hana. So take a quick break and go ahead and recollect all the lost chakra." One of the ANBU members came via shunshin, standing next to him as he whispered something in his ear. Shihouin's eyes widened and completely relaxed in no less than a second. He looked towards the area... "So. What do you want to learn first...." He trailed off a bit, waiting for er.

Hana was seriously shocked by how much power the hokage had shown. How much he was showing. This was beyond the normal levels. She knew hokage were powerful but Shi was way stronger than what she had ever seen before.

He was definitely someone she wanted to be trained by. She winced as the ANBU jumped in front of her. She really didn't want him to be hurt either. She didn't have any type of shield jutsu though. She couldn't protect them so it was up to the ANBU. Though after they ANBU members got things under control Hana sighed in relief.

She wasn't harmed though the area surrounding them totally was. She listened to what Shi had to say. It was about her? She thought she was just helping him train and learn things from him as he trained. This was definitely a bonus. Shihouin always rewarded her.

Hana sat down as the ANBU members rushed about. About half of them went to go do something. It looked urgent but Hana shrugged it off. Shihouin seemed to be fine. Just mildly surprised for a moment. The rest of the ANBU with the water element began putting out the fires. Hana thought that fire jutsu was powerful. She'd never seen fire be used to that potential before. Sure she had fought Yori with his fire but Yori's jutsu was nothing compared to Shi's. "Sensei... I want to learn fire jutsu. Really sensei, I know I could make you proud by following in your footsteps a bit. I won't totally copy you but learning some of your techniques as well as flame jutsu is enough."

A thunderclap. It wasn't a pretty one either, it was one strong enough to race out across the skies and struck near the Hokage monument, more closer to his face than Keiden's or Hiroshi's. A bad omen for the superstitious and a bad feeling for Shihouin. His eyes trailed out towards the village again, and he knew he had to do something or at least back up someone. He had to figure out the abilities of this person and keep Hana safe at the same time. She was more than just a test subject to him now, she was his most beloved comrade, and no logner student.

He motioned over to the ANBU who seemed to be eagerly waiting commands. "Take care of Hana. Go get Ayame and if Yamazu is with her go grab him up. They have A rank orders now, to see to it that Hana is taken care of. I want the stone tablet in the Uchiha district secured safely as well! Move!" One of the ANBU scattered off with shunshin to complete his commands. Things were getting tight and the situations was definitely getting thick. No, not thick. Opaque was a better word... because he wasn't sure that all of his ninja would see through to the end.

He moved over to Hana, and stood over her, bending down on one knee as to not tower over her. He put his arms around her and embraced her in a tight hug. "I've done unspeakable things, and haven't told the truth entirely. I'm going to go take care of the village, I'll be back and I'll make things right." He released her and reached into his ninja pocket, pulling out a few scrolls. "Start with non-elemental. Ayame and or Yamazu will help you if you need help. These are my personal techniques... Destroy the scroll after you get done learning them." Shihouin stood back up with some type of renewed.. no it was more like he had a different type of resolve, a new determination. And this time, the Sharingan didn't look like it would bring destruction, it looked more like he could see a clear future. "Cya Hana!" With that, he took off towards the village center, where the attacker was promoting havoc.

For instance, by placing chakra to the feet, one can stand on upside down on a roof because the chakra is causing them to stick. Or if the user is falling and needs to grip on something to break the fall, chakra to the hands can be used to grip to break the fall. If Shihouin cannot deflect a thrown tool with his hands, he can use chakra to his feet and counter properly and cause a weapon to stick to his feet/body part.

[u]Description:[/u] Since the normal kawarimi switches the opponent with "said object" Shihounin uses a version which switches it with a log that is usually covered in tagged notes or smoke bombs or some type of tool or weapon attached to the log.

[u]Description:[/u] Soushuriken no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique used Shihouin. After hurling his giant shuriken, Shihouin can control their path and movements by using wires which run from the shuriken itself back to his arm. Because his opponent will think they are normal shuriken, they will be off guard about their ability to redirect themselves.

Hana was now slightly worried with how Shihouin was acting. Hana wasn't sure who that Yamazu was but she felt better that Ayame would be there for her. Hana wasn't even sure why she needed protection though. Was something wrong? Was someone in danger?

Hana was shocked by the hug. He really felt like a father at that moment and Hana, who had never felt a fathers love, didn't want it to end. Hana listened quietly to what Shihouin had to say. So what if he had done bad things? He'd more than made up for those things in Hana's mind. It didn't matter that he had lied. Even lied to her. She forgave him instantly as they embraced in that warm, caring hug.

So the village was in danger. Hana's first instinct was to go help him, but he was having her be protected for a reason. She was too weak at the moment to help. She knew he hadn't given up on her though. Why else was he going to leave her his scroll to train?

As he pulled away from her he had a different look in his eyes. The young chunin was proud of her father figure. It seemed as if he found something to really fight for. Like for the moment, he'd found some light. Some true light that he was striving to protect. Or it could be that he wanted to keep it for himself. Hana had a feeling it wasn't that though. She was sure Shihouin felt something entirely new.

He took off and Hana honestly wanted to go after him. She wanted to tell him how much she was proud of him and how she would make him proud by becoming stronger to fight at his side. With her own newfound determination Hana took a look at the scroll. Instantly she began looking over the useful ones. She used her fingernail to make an indent next to the ones she wanted to learn. For starters she would learn some D ranks. But these would be extremely useful she knew.

~~~

Hana decided to start off with the Shihouin Souhou. This one would be very handy for fighting above things or if she were dropped from the air. She'd be able to use it for so many uses. She could come up with fifty ways off the top of her head to use this technique.

Hana began concentrating chakra in her feet. Then she went up to the nearest tree that wasn't burnt to a crisp and climbed. She used the tree climbing technique. Though this time she found a branch and stood upside down as she clinged to it. She did this for about ten minutes. She then began walking around on the branch. She hoped to become used to this.

She then began concentrating chakra in her hands. This time she began to stick by using her hands only. After a few moments she began to climb the whole tree just by her hands. It was difficult but Hana needed to do so. Hana closed her eyes and then took a deep breath. What she was about to do next would seriously scare her. '

She stopped concentrating for a moment and let go. This allowed the girl to fall about a meter before she concentrated enough chakra to hold onto the tree again. She just barely made it before she hit the ground. Hana sighed in relief.

She finished this part of the training. Only two more techniques.

The young chunin continued training. She had trained with one of the ANBU. She had him throw kunai at her while she caught them with her new technique. They praticed until Hana could catch them easily with the technique.

Hana read off the next jutsu. Kawarimi No Jutsu, Shihouin Kou. That was what was next. Hana then began using the kawarimi over and over again. Each time she would add something to the log. The first time she used an exploding tag. The second she tried a complex trap using spring loaded kunai.

She had the ANBU help her out. They had nothing better to do. Sure their job was to protect her. But if they sparred with her they would be ready and warmed up for their enemy. It was a good thing to spar with Hana.

Hana continued on for about twenty minutes. She'd tried many different things. Her favorite by far was to use an explosive tag since the enemy couldn't get away fast enough. Kawarimi was an awesome technique. The girl was sure to use it more often in her fights. From now on she promised to do so.

She continued to go over it until she finally had it correct. She could do it perfectly now.

~~~

Hana looked at the list. Only one more jutsu to go. She was nearly done with her non elemental training. She wondered what she would work on next. Shihouin probably wouldn't be back for a while.

She wondered if she should work on her second specialty after this final jutsu. She couldnt work on fire jutsu. She wasn't even sure if she could use fire. Since nobody knew their elements till they tested them. Hana wanted fire really bad though.

She shook her head and concentrated on this next jutsu. It was almost like puppetry. She had to concentrate on controlling the strings in a way the person couldn't notice. She practiced once again with the ANBU. She hoped one of the jonin would come soon though. That way she could learn her second specialty. She wanted to specialize in ninjutsu.

She chased the ANBU for a moment with the kunai and shuriken. She practiced until she mastered it. Then she took a quick break. She drank some water and sat next to the ANBU. They were keeping a good lookout just in case something happened.

She wondered if Shi was okay. He WAS the hokage but still. Something was happening. She really needed to get stronger. She needed to do so quickly.

Finished!!!
