Understanding Chakra aka, Kizume's Cultivation

1.	Understanding Chakra...

1.	(Training to understand Chakra) Hyuuga, Kizume says, So, just the silence again. Hyuuga, Kizume would take her leave to focus on her training someplace where she cannot disturb the silence that was present. Hyuuga, Kizume would soon enter the spa, south of where she just was located... Now, here at the spa... It was quiet, and a palce where she knew no one or no guys would come by to distract her. "This peace and silence, I can work with," said the young Hyuuga.. "This steam and heat, it will help to condition my body as a shinobi.. This I know to be true," she would assume the stance of the Gentle Fist...Then after, should would focus her on her chakra, so that she would have stable footing on the water...

2.	Finally... She would utilize the ability known as Shunshin, to teleport from one spot to another... This was going to be her training, a form of gentle step dance, the Flickering Step of the Gentle Fist... This would be her primary fighting style and how she will showcase her use as a shinobi... Of course, she was naked, but, it was how she trained for the moment. To condition her body, she flickered about on the steamy water. Those steps made her breathing all the more easier to perform when in battle... Though one thing bothered her and it was the laser wound given to her by the Uzumaki... This was a lesson for her to one day surpass that redhaired persons movements...Even if he was the blacksmith, she fell short behind the Uzumaki in skill, something she could not allow... "I'll bring to the world, my Flickering Step of the Gentle Fist." Hyuuga, Kizume would continue from this point on with her ability... She flickered from one part of the spa to another...

2.	"Traditinally...We approach our enemy directly but... At times of war, i cannot afford to focus on only one target... I have to be flexible and move from one person to another within a matter of seconds..." She was trying to make the best out of her current abilities and so. She continued to push herserlf. "One Step...Two Step....Four Step... Eighth Step!" She shouts, moving from spot to spot, and from each step, she would move herself as if she were striking a target at war. Hyuuga, Kizume showing her prowess with the jutsu... The young Hyuuga would carry on with her training.. Still in the spa, despite the heat... She danced and spoke only amongst herself. "To move from one location to another---" she stopped for a moment, feeling dizzy from the use of her shunshin. "I need to be more careful," she said whilst getting up.

3.	"I nearly sanked into the water, if I keep being lazy, I'll drown, even if its only spa water," said Kizume as she shook her head. "Then i can't allow that." She got up, and assumed the position of her fighting method with the stance of the gentle fist... Or rather, now, known as her Flickering Gentle Step. In motion with this though, she would be making progress towards the 64 Palms... One day, she wil achieve it... Though right now, all she could do was continue her practice of the art, until she had finally grasped it one day. "First Step!" She blitz with the motion of striking someone with the palm heel attack. "Second Step!" She blitzed behind her imaginary target.. Striking it once again. "Third Step!" Kizume released the final blow, which was a Gentle Fist Strike to the heart, to create a form of stun to her targets.

4.	Hyuuga, Kizume began to prepare herself for the next journey, another D rank mission, but one that involved delivering a message to a friendly village... Of course, in the eyes of Kizume, she saw this as some bit of training as well.. She had to build up her speed after all, as both a Scout and Profound Hyuuga... Someone who would be able to not only make it to point A, but to B, C, D and E in relatively short times. "I'll bring this letter to the village hidden in the mountains... That one seems close enough," said the Hyuuga as she packed her supplies... it was all kept short, nothing too much because of how easily things could pop off... So, soon after, she would have made her way to the village gates.. "I shouldn't be long..." She focused on the route ahead, and would begin her journey as well as her training... "Flickering Gentle Step, Lethal Palm!" She shouts as she would try to first imagine the road ahead and channel her chakra into her body in order to advance! Taking steps forward but in a blur to cover such a short distance... However, she had ultimately failed to do so, costing her some chakra and stamina.. "Almost had it... I'll have to keep trying until I get to that village."

Someone who would be able to not only make it to point A, but to B, C, D and E in relatively short times. "I'll bring this letter to the village hidden in the mountains...

So, soon after, she would have made her way to the village gates..

6.	"I shouldn't be long..." She focused on the route ahead, and would begin her journey as well as her training... "Flickering Gentle Step, Lethal Palm!" She shouts as she would try to first imagine the road ahead and channel her chakra into her body in order to advance! Taking steps forward but in a blur to cover such a short distance... However, she had ultimately failed to do so, costing her some chakra and stamina.. "Almost had it... I'll have to keep trying until I get to that village." Hyuuga, Kizume only felt as if this mission wouldn't feel beneficial without her use of training along the way... Though, she always wondered, what the others would think of this... It was no simple walk from one place to another, but, it was Kizume training her abilities with the use of her shunshin... Whilst training her ability to utilize shunshin, she also tried to add in the Palm Heel Strike, this was to try and create that jutsu she's been trying to make, the Flickering Gentle Step, the Lethal Palm... But, as she did this, the girl would teleport, or welll... Quickly move at the maximum length of tiles that she can...

7.	To the best of her ability even though there was bound to be some failures every now and then. Now the trick was not simply utilizing shunshin, but to deliver an attack while you were in that untraceable stag of speed... If she could surpass that limit of hers, then she'd be able to use this fighting method where ever she would go. After all, for the sake of the mission, she had to reach that village in a speedy time... So by using shunshin, it might cut her travel distance short... The letter she was going to deliver was nothing secret, and probably a love leeter between two villagers. "O-Phew, if I keep this up, I might be quick enough to actually hold my own in a fight," said Kizume... Hyuuga, Kizume was tired, but still had her eyes on the mission ahead. Kizume Hyuuga looked at the tattered Scroll in her hands and felt puzzled. Was she just that sleepy or was she really close to meeting her goal on this mission? The shunshin ability had drained her as she trained it for the entire route. She walked over to the window and reflected on her hilly surroundings.

8.	She had always loved sunny Konoha with its rabblesnatching, raspy rivers. It was a place that encouraged her tendency to feel puzzled. Then she saw something in the distance, or rather someone. It was the figure of Zoe Thomas. Zoe was an admirable patient with beautiful eyelashes and curvy fingernails. Kizume gulped. She glanced at her own reflection. She was an adorable, remarkable, Tea drinker with pretty eyelashes and solid fingernails. Her friends saw her as a combative, cruel carer. Once, she had even saved a weary puppy that was stuck in a drain. But not even an adorable person who had once saved a weary puppy that was stuck in a drain, was prepared for what Zoe had in store today. The wind blew like running foxes, making Kizume confident with each use of her shunshin whilst on the way to that village hidden within the mountains... As Kizume stepped outside and Zoe came closer, she could see the ratty glint in her eye. "I am here because I want that mission Letter," Zoe bellowed, in a brutal tone. She slammed her fist against Kizume's chest, with the force of 4692 owls. But then, immediately, to check his attitude, Kizume slapped back with the force of a palm heel strike. "Don't you ever put your hands on a shinobi again...You have your letter now, and I'll be on my way," she scuffs with a disappointed look at Zoe, now..Finally making her way back home where she belonged.

9.	Hyuuga, Kizume was now at the training fields where she would begin to cultivate her strength in another way.. She stood firm where she was and would take up the stance of the gentle fist. Just as she did when she and the others went up against the masked man, she would try to charge up her Air Palm technique, making an orb of chakra for the moment. This chakra that was being cultivated was charged without the use of her byakugan, and some might ask why. It was to give her eyes a rest, and focus on the chakra control of her abilities. This way, when she used her Hyuuga clan skills, those chakra control traits would truly show as a promising feat rather than a simple boosted stat. "All I need is a few more months, maybe even years of cultivation in order to set a historical mark for the Hyuuga. That's all I need right now, because everything else, will fall in order." Then after, with a single hand movement, she'd thrust her dominant hand forward, sending out a wave of high pressured chakra moving as it would as if it were air. It was hurled directly at the target. This was one of her many solutions to long ranged fighting and how she might deal with more powerful targets up close, in the events that she needed to knock someone back a few feet.

10.	Jaison making his way back to the training field, he would see Kizume was true to her word and already working on her own craft. Ready to get started, Jaison would generate chakra throughout his system before channeling the said chakra to his lungs. Jaison would bring his hands to his chest as he began going through the selected seals, holding the last one as he called out. " Fire Style: Fire Dragon Jutsu" Jaison would inhale before firing a jet of fire toward the ground, watching travel across it before smahing violently into the training post, causing it to catch fire upon contact. Hyuuga, Kizume stood her ground as she prepared to unleash another air palm, this time charging it within the opposite hand. She wondered at times, why when compared to other jutsu, did this one ability travel at only half the speed of anyones control over chakra... It might of been something to do with mastery over the air palms. She would never know, but would likely only be able to use it from a close range if that was the case.

11.	As most veteran shinobi, if she could tell from her own experience... Were much faster than the typical jutsu. That's when she looked at Jaison and saw how much he was progressing, just as she was about to break one minor limit of her own with the Air Palm, being very close on the brink from Novice to Expert. "You keep that up Jaison and you'll long surpass many of us once you hit our age," she smiled at the way he had learned to train.. For she was more hands on than she could ever be a book learner, everything had to come from experience, and not from the lectures of another. Hyuuga, Kizume panting lightly from the Air Palm usage, she realized just how much better at this she was getting. She was no longer a Novice, but an Expert at the skill.. What's more, she might be able to use it with two hands instead of one eventually, this way, she can make it double the power or the effect when she fought. At this rate and with such a method, knowing she had a maximum fire of up to three chakra shells.

12.	Then she might be able to fire off at three different people. She focused on this cultivation even more with a form of standing meditation, telling herself to focus. "That's it, if I keep this up, I'll soon be on par with the higher ups, and maybe even become one myself," the only advantage she saw to being a shinobi leader, was that she'd know the pain that her people go through within the Hyuuga clan. She'd know what missions NOT to send them o and how to handle tough situations in times of hardship. But for now, she would place ehr hands together, palm to palm with a solid stance.. Her goal was to successfully merge the two chakra balls made to fire the air palm. She knew that if she were to do that, then the ability would likely grow. "Ha!" She shouts, sending that beam like blast of high pressured air towards the middle wood target. Likely scraping or destroying large chunks of it. Hyuuga, Kizume smiled at the progress she made thus far, looking down at her hands with a sense of pride.

13.	"Sometimes I'd like to believe, that having our strognest leave, creates room for us to grow," said the Hyuuga as she began to make movements towards another skill she'd train. But this one would remain undisclosed, all that would be seen was Kizume's footwork being practiced, as well as her chakra control through those very movements. She was moving about faster, somewhat more careful than she was before in a circular motion. This was no dance but an ancient martial art passed down from many generations before this one Hyuuga girl. Now she would continue to practice these movements in silence. Even daring to strike at the particles or grains of sand that was kicked into the air.. And she wasn't striking for a collection of those grains, but one thing at a time, working on her very sight to see far and more precisely than she could before. Jaison smiled as Kizume praised him. He was working hard but it was more because he had seen everyone around him working equally as hard. He saw Kizume working on her on jutsu. In all honesty, Jaison just wanted to be useful, with a attack happening more and more each week, he felt like it was only a matter of time that he doesn't walk away from one like he had been so far. " Thank you, I just want to be helpful..

14.	Its like things are gonna get worst before it gets better. I just want to make sure we all make it out of this okay and if it means I have to work harder to ake sure it happens then i will do that." Jaison would generate chakra once again before channeling it into his lungs once again. Jaison would bring his hands up, flashing through the seals before holding the last one and calling out. " Fire Style: Fire Dragon Jutsu" Jaison would inhale before firing the jet of flames at the already scorched earth, watching it travel across the ground before hitting the burnted training post. Hyuuga, Kizume took a deep breath for the time she made those strikes towards each grain of sand, training her sight so that she could make more accurate landing strukes, to have pin point accuracy without the need for a weapon. But, with the few jutsu she was developing, she actually would use some weapons, only to keep stored away for some time and use this wisdom to unleash a storm of shuriken upon someone. But for now, she'd only focus on what she had on her current arsenal. Maybe she was no healer, this much was true, but she was a professional with chakra control. Hence the reason she did her reseach for abilities that relied on chakra control and chakra control alone. No Ninjutsu or Genjutsu or even Taijutsu but Chakra control for the purpose of a more pure manipulation, and to honor her clan in more ways than one.

15.	"Everyone is useful Jaison, you just have to find your oppertune moment, just as you did in the fight against the Ice user. Everyone pitched in, even when they saw that their mightiest attacks did nothing. But you pushed forward alongside Yatorama, and made a successful hit," Kizume explained. Though while she did that, the Hyuuga heiress would continue her circular movements for the sake of her training. Her taijutsu was like that of a dance, this was the traditional gentle fist after all. No aggressive movements, just pure skill and grace as if they were flowing with the wind. And their palms, being the force behind a hurricane just waiting to explode. Senju, Yatorama says, Your taijutsu is looking masterful Kizume. Hyuuga, Kizume says, Thank you Yato, I'm trying to make up for every short coming. Kiyoshi (Repost --- took note of the things she needed to achieve in order to succeed..

17.	Hyuuga, Kizume sighed a moment there, bringing her movements to an end. She thought that now she would focus on something that would take up much more time than it would to master those other abilities. She had her mind set on an end goal for the later run despite all else. So she'd begin to meditate for her chakra cultivation. Though she was not sure if a full moon would show tonight or not, the point of her training was to connect herself to a different purpose and mold something out of it. This purpose was towards her duty as the Hyuuga heiress and what she'll do to change or better their current way of life. It was through this meditation, through these hours and months spent cultivating that she would polish her own chakra control as well as cause her reserves to grow over time. Though of course, when one states that this is a slow process, it truly is one of the few that takes dedication for one to make promise. "The moon has seen countless nights, and it has seen all that's happened through history... It rises our tides and brings up a balance of light and darkness within the night. Yet, we, as tiny as we are, sometimes take it for granted," the Hyuuga was trying to establish a connection for the later run... It was a theory, but she wanted to make this Lunar Cultivation part of the main families tradition.


18.	standing still at the center of the small lake. She'd place both of her hands into a single hand sign, focusing on her chakra, trying to cultivate it into something more for the future. With each time she did this, she was taking a step towards a brighter image. Though for now, she was also rebuilding loss chakra for the safety of her jtusu practice. So she'd continue to perform her summoning jutsu, using the same methods that included the traditional hand signs as well as a blood tribute. "Kuchiyose No Jutsu!" The Hyuuga shouts. Slamming her hand onto the ground, emitting the fuuinjutsu seal for Time and Space, also known as the formula needed for the summoning. But from those sealing runes came smoke, and from that large cloud of smoke emerged the baboon she had previously summoned. Wu-Kong. "It's actually a relief to see you this time," she said to the monkey. Wu-Kong Replied, "AND~~~ I'm GONE!!" Each word was a tease towards her training to master the summoning technique, vanishing on his own to push her.

19.	Hyuuga, Kizume knew that there was still some training to be done on her part. She may have gotten a grasp of her abilities, but they were no where near mastery and so, like she did the other day. Kizume would continue to work on her summoning ability, this way she could then later focus on her own abilities, the ones she's discovered on her own and or created. "I'll have to become a supporting shinobi for this village, when no one else can remain loyal to it," said the Hyuuga. Performing those required hand signs, Kizume would make that blood tribute then after. The summoning required only a little of her chakra now that she was getting used to it. She slammed her hand onto the ground, letting the fuuinjutsu runes and ancient writings spread across the area around her reach. From these seals came a large cloud of smoke. "Finally, you're here!" exclaimed the heiress. And to her surprise, the monkey, or rather the baboon seemed happy to see her for once.

20.	"You're looking bright this morning!" Said Wu-Kong as his form became more appearant from the smoke. He was not useful for combat, but he was still a summoning creature that had helped Kizume greatly with her training. "So! We're going to play another game of tag? You know you humans can't win against us apes, we can hop from tree to tree just like that!" Wu--Kong boasted. But Kizume replied, "Can't tell if that was a sense of your monkey sarcasm or, if you actually meant that first bit. But no, we're here to train, so I need you to return to the Forest so that I can summon you again," Kizume instructed. Though Wu-Kong was a bit hesitant on the matter. He wanted to play around within Konoha. "Only if you let me stick around once it's over! This place has a lot of spots to steal from---I mean enjoy!" Kizume shook her head... As always, she delt with the monkey business. Hyuuga, Kizume says, Oh, so you're still up and training, huh Jaison? Jaison Returning to his trainig after a short nap, Jaison readied himself to practice one of the less taxing moves in his arsenal. He would generate chakra throughout his body before bring his hands up and making a single seal as he called out " Fire Clone Jutsu" A clone of Jaison would form next to him, staying there for a few seconds before vanishing as flames erupted from it. finished with his jutsu, Jaison would turn to Kizume and smile as he replied " Yeah, I'll relax once I have evry jutsu I know down to as best as I can get it."

21.	Hyuuga, Kizume saw how Jaison was training his fire clone jutsu. So, she thought it would be wise to stick around and train with someone else since it was a lot better than training alone. She could keep up a conversation while trying to master a new technique. Though there was one in particular that she wanted to try out in combat and combat alone, to see just how effective it would be against most people. She replied to Jaison, "I know the feeling... I can't sit still and wait for others to arrive in order to progress... I spend more time training here than I do the Hyuuga estates now... Maybe its the community that keeps me here." She smiled, as she'd closed her eyes for the moment to stand just a few feet away from Jaison.

22.	Kizume was going to train one of the many jutsu she had created, starting with the control of her chakra, and the advancements towards becoming a transistionist. For her, there was only one hand sign needed to perform this, but for concetration reasons, she'd try to give this jutsu appropriate hand signs for public use in the future, when other Hyuuga or those trusty folks of the village, would attempt to use it. "Hidden Art: Soshusjin No Jutsu," said the heiress as the chakra around her body would begin to pull at a few kunai from within her pouch... She'd direct this action with her hands, like a play done by an Orchestra lead. Soon after, she'd thrust her hand forward, using her control over chakra to send the three kunai hurling towards the logs. Their speed was based on her chakra control divided by two. So they moved fast but probably not quite as fast as some expert Ninjutsu specialist.

23.	Hyuuga Kizume, looking up to the sky... Looking for sight of the cosmos through her normal vision, night trying to catch motion of the many cosmos beyond their home of Earth.. What truth did she see with her Byakugan? It wasn't only used to see into people.. She figured long ago, that if she can see chakra points, the size of needle points, then with her eyes, she'd be able to scout for planets, and stars long beyond the distance of her home... Or so she trained to.. Kizume began to say to herself, a soft chant as she stared directly at the moon, with eyes of ivory. "Lunar gods.. If I were to call for help. ... Over time...Over sea.. Like a wave.. You'd come. My guidance and guadian angel... Lunar Gods... If I were to call for help. Over the force of life. Like the pull of gravity you forge. You'd come... Lunar Gods. Of forgotten kindness and ruined spirits. I pray... For my people... And our spirits through each step of cultivation... This act of mysticism. "

24.	Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) would simply take this time to meditate and cultivate her chakra as she always did throughout the years... She did this meditation away from the crowd, so that she can focus on the silence. There of course, would be some difficulty, since she had never been to this place before. So her environment felt new, even if she may have seen parts of it from afar.. It was foreign still... But eventually, she'd connect if she gave into time and patients. * - Tue Oct 06 09:11:56 2020

25.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) watching as the chakra began to mold within Mei's body, there was a shift of anatomy here, working with her Kekkei genkai.. This made Kizume not only twitch from imagining the pain or the sensation of bone moving through muscle like that. But how it would also feel on the other end of that weapon. After all, the spine supported the body, and here, it supported Mei's martial art, as a weapon of combat, probably as durable or MORE durable than the user by her estimate... She only calculated how tough actual bone was, and upon human skin? It could very well shread it if given enough force. She looks to Cao, "I see why you're so strong... Training with shinobi such as this... Makes me wonder how far along I have to go."* - Tue Oct 06 09:54:36 2020 =========== Next RP ==========

26.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) had a feeling that she could improve on the sidelines, despite not being in the fight... She saw Cao standing there as well as Shingen who was ready to defend themselves... She replied to Mei whilst taking a stance. "No.. This works fine for me," the Hyuuga looked as if she were prepared for a dance of sorts.. Focusing her chakra control into her finger tips, and actually swinging her arms before and around her in a graceful way, using her reach and natural flexibility to cover the full 360 degree of her vision, including that 1 out of the 359 that was a blind blind. But this was no challenge head on, but a test of her current strength against that of the projectiles that threatened to fly their way. In her mind she spoke, 'Eight Trigrams: Protection of the Holy Eight.' This attempt would be done whilst in front of Cao and Shingen, to try and defelct anything incoming.* - Tue Oct 06 09:59:44 2020 =======================

27.	Next RP *Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) took an immediate step back from the unhuman like roar, looking at Agito with an expression of concern... Though she knew people were probably watching, she did not want them to see what she'd have to do in order to put Agito to sleep... So she walked around the tree that binded him.. Looking for access towards the nape of his neck. "Agito... It's time to go to bed now... You're in pain, but sleeping solves many issues... I think you know this," she was not going to weaken him, but aim to send a flow of chakra into the back of his head to try and put him to sleep. Was there an opening though? Only the Senju could confirm.* - Tue Oct 06 14:08:54 2020 ==============

28.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) was thankful to the puppet master coming in when she did.. Because of that, she was allowed to end her protection ability early, and now. She might find the chance to act, just as Soba instructed to do when Agito had gotten wild... At least, in Kizume's eyes, she saw many bipolar reactions, and thought it'd be best, to knock him out where he stood, while he was in the bind. "I'm sorry, Agito..." Said Kizume in this attempt to strike the nape of Agito's neck, sending a sharp but careful flow of chakra through his system in the attempt to knock him out. For this was not aiming to damage him, but just try to knock him out, especially if it was done easily through a physical strike to that area, then it should've been possible with chakra, while he was defenseless. It was a simple Gentle Palm Strike. Aimed at that particular chakra point. (30 AS, =================

29.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) looking at Kiyoshi, the young Hyuuga would continue to monitor both his chakra flow, and those who came in and out of the building...She could see who came and who left anyway.. So she called for a real doctor, and although slow, the NPC would do their job. She then replied to Yatorama, "I can no longer stand Haguro, the disrespect, the lack of honor... It's not Konoha I'm upset with... It's those above us who treats us as nothing but pawns until the day comes where we have more power than them... Because that's all they seem to respect, so I'm going to return to my estates.." She sighs. "Missions will be hard to get, but at least while I'm on my own, I won't have to deal with anyone else unless someone needs my help."* - Mon Oct 05 20:52:06 2020 ==========

30.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) had her eyes set on the target, and the more he taunted her, the more that little piece of evil was threatening to come out... As if it was teased by the chill of his words going down her neck and spine. The pure vision of such a girl alone with some bandit who only saw her as an object... It made her fearless for that moment, for she wanted to prove to herself, and those around her, that she was not just a girl to look at and recieve lewd thoughts. "Take that back..." She said whilst charging at the man before her, aiming to jump into the air and rotate her hands rapidly, whilst channeling her chakra to unleashing a slicing barrier meant for defense, but this time, used as an offense through self pride. 'I'll cut you to ribbons, till even your spirit has been torn asunder!' The thoughts of her bloodlust were creeping up... But there was that piece of her that tried to stay calm... She did not go berserk just yet, but just pushed into a fight, hurling down at her target from a JUMP...Descending with the Holy Eight Trigrams, Protection Method!* - Fri Oct 02 17:02:08 2020 ===============

31.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) eventually began to lower her speed from the slicing barrier ability that was formed, only to do such TOO early... She could have maintained the barrier for protection at the cost of her chakra, but... The shuriken MAY or MAY NOT have been sliced.... If any were to pass through, then some would of course hit her.. But luckily, as decided by the EC.. Those shuriken would be sliced upon impact, with one possibly grazing her shoulder upon the final moment that she was letting this guard down... She would be grazed and the stinging sensation would travel through her body like a sudden life realization.. "I... Was hit," she said with widened eyes... The fact that she allowed her guard to drop so early made her wonder if she was being too at ease with the situation! This feeling however... Was a predictive thought, because she was never actually hit, but, there was the feeling of anticipation waiting.. Knowing your skin would be sliced open, the feeling of being subjected to pain and not knowing when something so horrible was coming. But she'd proceed forward, looking at the man standing before her... That bloodlust would begin to kick in even more, making her thirst for blood in return. And so, she'd take that stance, invisioning herself within a large black and green circle of the Eight Trigrams Seal.. Her attempt this time, was to utilize the 64 palms whilst she was close, to display and use her new ability in ana ctual battle for the first time.* - Fri Oct 02 17:35:24 2020 ========================

32.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) counting the palms by number, she continued... "2 Palms...4...8...16 Palms...32 Palms...64 Palms---" But then... She stopped in her tracks as Quiant casually spoke during the jutsu's activation... "Not enough?..." She froze that moment and lept back! Trying to gain some distance from Quiant, not sure if he was bluffing or if he had truly took the full damage of his internals being struck directly. She waited for him to move, and waited for Akira to speak on this action.. The girl wouldn't hesitate for too long though..Deciding to test that theory with a simple Gentle Fist Strike aiming for the left lung chakra point! (100 True Damage if landed... Normal 15 Attack Speed. Basic Gentle Fist Strike)* - Fri Oct 02 18:05:16 2020 =====================

33.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) stared at the man for a moment... Even if he was someone who... Insulted her. She truly wondered if this man deserved to be executed.. Or if the courts mistook his tomfoolery for the actions of a murderer... She was unsure of his record, but, in order to be someone worthy of the title given to her, she'd have to take action.. And so, with her Byakugan active. She would try something new, something that will one day grow into a true ability suitable for such things like execution... Her eyes were set on the eight inner chakra gates, most importantly, the one located at the center of the human heart, the Gate of Death... This was her development towards a jutsu that would one day become an S rank, and through her collective wisdom would she attempt it today... She explained the theory in full...

34.	"I will give him a warriors death, one where he'll feel the peek of his own power...And be imprisoned by it as he is executed..." She delivers the strike, sending a lot of her own chakra through her fingertips, and into the heart chakra point in order to force it open for the finisher... This might force him to unleash chakra at a rapid pace, so much so that his body will burn itself to ash whilst the other 7 gates will imprison his movements by trying to fight that rapid leakage coming from the 8th Gate chakra point... Everything else form this point on, was up to chance, but Kizume had delivered her killing blow, hence the name she'd one day give this jutsu. "Kinjutsu: Forbidden Trigram: Death Gate Imprisonment." Would this be the end, or will this attempt to execute be a failed one?* - Fri Oct 02 18:20:38 2020 =====================

35.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) stood back for the time being, observing the situation... Watching as anger within the room had spiked, and doing nothing about it... Because she couldn't.. Who was she to a majority of these people? A student? A friend who had barely spent any time with them? Or just another weapon waitching to be used in the battlefield... Who was she amongst them, to tell the Hokage of all people to calm down, to tell Mayumi or Sorrow to get a grip? She wasn't anyone to them. A friend and colleague at the most, and so. She remained quiet, and took her leave, making her silent departure by helping out with the chaos that was left outside... But within the Hokage, she felt as if she were swimming in his chakra, as if it took more than just walking effort to get out of the office... Her vision was blinded by more than an Ocean of chakra reserves, but that of a bijuu tier... Perhaps it could have been one for all she knew. It was like a puppy diving into a pool, the deep end, and trying to swim out for air.. Once she left the office... She could finally breathe... Maybe the others weren't chakra sensitive, but through her vision she was.* - Fri Oct 02 22:24:41 2020 ====================

36.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) being within the comfort of her Hyuuga estate... The young princess, Kizume would focus on her Lunar Cultivation, this was the process of increasing her own chakra control without the use of the Byakugan, and upon the nights of a full moon, she would use her Byakugan to see into the waves of chakra it might have to offer... But right now, she'd focus on her Flickering Gentle Step, as well as her new found abilities such as the 64 palms and the Air Palms... She did this training in attempts to break her limits and reach that level of strength she'd need in order to lead the Hyuuga. "Eight Trigrams: Air Palm!" She shouts as a wave of pressured air is sent towards a testing dummie... This was a training process she normally kept going for many hours... But as mentioned a few times before... Something was wrong with her, she felt nusea and couldn't understand why... Not until, she used her own Byakugan to spot it... An additional chakra point within her womb... No, a life that was growing..

37.	This made Kizume gasp as she fell to the floor... And after the nights she had spent with Cao in secret... He left with a gift to her and the Hyuuga family that so much needed an heir to lead it within the future. "How..Am I going to handle this?" She asked herserlf...Then, the solution, it might even present itself... "The Elders.. Will they help me through this?... No... What will my father think?..Will the child be kept in secret as I was?" She asked herserlf a million questions until finally... "It must be done..." She said to herself.... "I ... For the sake of myself and my child... Will enter these last few months... Of Cultivation, within the Estate alone... No one will know...Only if they discover through me and me alone..." She said to herself as she'd continue her training of cultivated chakra contorl at a light pace from here on out.* - Fri Oct 02 22:56:16 2020 ===================

38.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) continued on with her light training method... She figured that this would be good for her, and the life within.. Smiling at herself as she hummed a song light, asking.. "I wonder... If you'd have my hair, my eyes?... What will you look like.. Who will you take after?... I truly do wonder about these things... If you'd be different than the both of us...There's a worlds worth of questions and I can't ask them all at once now can I?" She smiled, continuing on with her training to cultivate the chakra within to be like that of the moon for a grand scale attack. * - Fri Oct 02 23:02:14 2020 ===============

39.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) slightly... She pushed herself. And would continue to do so for a while longer... She needed to learn and harness the abilities of her clan and so, it would be done as soon as she could push herself to a new limit instead of being within one single zone... all she needed were these final months to push herself, to cultivate her strengths into one grand explosion after all... She would do this, not only for herself but for her clan and all those affected by her own actions... She would have to achieve it, the 128 palms, and soon... Create the jutsu made from her months of cultivating... That jutsu will be the peak fighting style of the Flickering Gentle Fist, though for now, she would focus on her ability to harness this chakra control and send it out as a deadly weapon, one surpassing the 64 palms slightly... This was the Air Palm and it would continue to be her one skill that'd help her in capturing those who tried to outrun her. "I need to perfect these jutsu.... If not one by one, then through the years or months from the many fights to come..."* - Fri Oct 02 23:25:16 2020 ====================

40.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) aiming for the trees before her... Kizume would focus her chakra into a single point for the Air Palm technique... She did this to build up volume, to make her chakra dense until she was ready to release it.. "HA!" She shouts, sending a flat Gentle Fist Palm into the air aimed at the tree...And from her palm came a high pressured wave of air that should have been strong enough to either dent the tree at the newbie level, or scratch off a lot of its bark.. She was working to make it up to novice level, to see if there would be a difference in strength... Her theory could be right, or it could be wrong, for most of it was not up to her, but to fate and those subjected to it... So because of this, she would continue to train in conjunction with the art of the Flickering Gentle Step, so that she could capture her enemies off guard and blast them away... She knew that with speed came great advantages, but in order to show her strength from these advantages, she had to improve while she was safe at home rather thn trying to test run things in the middle of a fight where it could be all too risky.* -

41.	Sat Oct 03 00:00:16 2020 *Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) panting as she trained through the night... Young Kizume would give herself a light pat on the back before entering a sprint... She was heading for the tree and while doing so, she would charge her dominant hand with the chakra needed to create the air palm. She did this while tired so it might not be as effective as they were when she was at full strength... With this came the ideas behind many practices she has done in the past... How she blossomed from a student, to a diplomat and from a diplomat into a shinobi... Although she has some issues going berserk from time to time, it also served as a secret weapon... Like now as she charges forth, with the spirit that has pushed her through many fights, unleashing an Air Palm that contained enough force to finally knock the tree over.. Albeit a little stronger due not only to anger, but the focus she brought OUT of that anger... To be more than just a wild woman when she got upset, but to focus all of that hate into one explosive point.. Until a wave of power would be unleashed just as she has done with the Air Palm... "I'm...Doing it, I'm actually...Doing it!" She cheers, for her limits may have just been broken from the practice of this brand new ability.* - Sat Oct 03 00:04:32 2020 =======================

42.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) looking at the downed guards through her use of the Byakugan.. She can see, just as Jin did, that they were indeed alive, and so, she'd stand her ground, in a tactical position, to observe the rogue from where she was instead of risking it all in one go. "He snuck in with ease, I'd be careful Jin..." She kept an eye out for any motions of molding chakra that could lead to a sudden attack.* - Sat Oct 03 12:36:19 2020 ==================

43.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) would begin to let her guard down as ash filled the area... She began to cough from not being able to breathe as clearly a she could before... Her eyes, the Byakugan was set on all the chakra signatures that she picked up from within the smoke.. All she would do for now was locate everyone, and identify them. This was until she took note of a soaring chakra, an attack incoming! Something that would ignite the ash and cause and explosion for the rest of them. "Don't move!" She shouts to all those around her, such as Jin, and Yato, because Jaison should be safe... Right? he was on the outside of the ash anyway, he'd probably just feel some shock. Meanwhile the Hyuuga heriess began to spin around rapidly. Sending her chakra out from every point, expanding her jutsu until she'd have a full sized rotation. 'Eight Trigrams: Heavenly Rotation!' She thought to herself, never saying such out loud. Hopefully, this would work to protect those within the ash.* - Sat Oct 03 13:45:26 2020 ================

44.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) panted heavily as this was the second time she had to go for the save. Her eyes were distracted by the focus she had to maintain for combat but, she managed to pick something up after hearing Jin's request. She caught notice of either a clone or the real terrorist being on top of the Hokages mansion, holding what looked like a collection of paper bombs... He was going to cause an avalanche? She was unsure, but from his position being on top of the mountain, it was bound to happen. Then there was another chakra signature, far west of them, a sniper? Was he going to send attacks at them from a distance? Finally... There was the 3rd and final chakra signature, hidden deep below the surface. That one was the most dangerous it seemed, with chakra surging like an explosion waiting to happen, well.. One JUST happened. "Jin! There is one on the mountain, and he has it rigged with explosives, one far west of us and one somewhere else... I know its under water but I can't tell from here... You have to end this, all of you!"* - Sat Oct 03 14:14:27 2020 ==========================

45.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) taking notice of the shadow dome around them.. Kizume smiled with praise, someone had came to help them with this battle. "Is that you?" She asked, remembering the woman from that day. But for now she focused on the task at hand. "Theres still the three chakra signatures around us, they're preparing for something big but I don't know what it is..." She looks to Jin, and Jaison, "Can you do anything about the sniper?" For she remained still, doing her job as a scout to find out where the enemy was if anyone were to ask. But its like two of them were moving constantly to distract her from finding the most important one... She couldn't lock on with these distractions.* - Sat Oct 03 14:47:44 2020 ====================

46.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) panted heavily from the strain that was being put onto her eyes.. But now, after the clones had been killed by Aka, she could properly focus.on where the REAL EC was. She was finally able to lock on, and she found his chakra signature deep below the ice... "It'd be difficult, but there he is... Two O'Clock!" She had been keeping track of them this entire time but, she almost lost focus during the earlier chaos. But for now, all she could do was pinpoint the rogues location.. The ice was another issue if it was thick enough to protect the guy enough for such passage.* - Sat Oct 03 15:23:34 2020 =============

47.	Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) keeps her byakugan active for the time, though it was tempting to release it due to the drain she's endured from the battle... having already sparred and trained prior, she was already short on half her chakra.* - Sat Oct 03 16:09:39 2020 ======================

48.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) being there at the moment with this masked man... She thought at that moment, that she'd reveal who it really was, not for some kill or victory, no.. She had questions and she was sure that this person had answers... It was then when she felt that build up of chakra that she would attempt to utilize her enhanced attack speed against his reflexes. She thought to herself, 'If they are free, then I must understand -Why!-" From there she'd visualize a massive seal, one that was Black and Green, pushing forward with her assault of the Eight Trigrams: 64 Palms. IF her attack were to land, she'd keep mental count. "Two Points...4 Points.. 8....16..32...64 points!" * - Sat Oct 03 20:22:14 2020 ==============

49.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) was brought to shock, utter shock as her hands were caught and her palms were stopped! She had widened eyes for a brief moment until she realized... That for someone to have such skill, to enter the village, preach, mop the floor with their shinobi POLITELY then have the energy to escape... She knew this man had the answers she was looking for and so she would state then ask. "You might be able to outrun the others, but you will never be able to get away from me. . . Because what does it mean to be free if one requires the need for a mask, answer me that," said the young Hyuuga heiress whilst trying to cultivate her chakra. She did this by attempting to form a condensed collection of chakra within her right and left hand (2 instead of 1...Or 3 as Jutsu described.) But without any thrusting power, in hopes to fire it from point blank range if the man tried to do anything to her. And although she'd struggle with her 17.67 Strength, this was a ploy to get her target into talking. "You came here to speak right? Go on... Take us by the heart strings and sing," Kizume tried her hand at negotiation. The Air Palm charging was an Attempt..They have not been fired, but kept for security.* - Sat Oct 03 20:46:59 2020 =========================

50.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) realizing that she was freed from his grip, and the man had agreed to talk.. She'd lower her guard to prevent constant chakra drain from charging the air palms.. She wanted to ehar him out, that was the goal. To make sense of the violence she woke up to.* - Sat Oct 03 21:13:26 2020 ================= *Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) wouldn't try to catch up with the Masked Man.. She knew that by the reading of his chakra signature, that she wouldn't be able to catch up. The man was simply out classing her and the others in almost every way possible "He's ...Going away," said Kizume, standing still, without even an attempt to keep up with the masked mans shunshin.* - Sat Oct 03 21:22:49 2020 =====================

51.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) laughing lightly at the fact, she added, "Believe me I know, that was the very first time anyone has ever stopped an attack like that. It's a good thing he only wanted to talk," said Kizume, now turning her attention over to Jaison. "Hey little red, you're training to perfect something new?" She'd observe the chakra blade he just used.* - Sun Oct 04 08:19:53 2020 ===============

52.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) turned her attention to the crowd for a moment.. Still, she was writing formulas for something she wanted to make a reality, a few things actually. But right now, she'd simply focus on her chakra cultivation. A meditation method of hers, used to build both chakra and chakra control for a certain outcome of enlightenment within the eyes. Of course, she'd try to stay out of trouble and wait for the highe rups to arrive so that she could turn in her completed missions.* - Sun Oct 04 10:21:55 2020 ====================

53.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) was now at the training fields where she would begin to cultivate her strength in another way.. She stood firm where she was and would take up the stance of the gentle fist. Just as she did when she and the others went up against the masked man, she would try to charge up her Air Palm technique, making an orb of chakra for the moment. This chakra that was being cultivated was charged without the use of her byakugan, and some might ask why. It was to give her eyes a rest, and focus on the chakra control of her abilities. This way, when she used her Hyuuga clan skills, those chakra control traits would truly show as a promising feat rather than a simple boosted stat. "All I need is a few more months, maybe even years of cultivation in order to set a historical mark for the Hyuuga. That's all I need right now, because everything else, will fall in order." Then after, with a single hand movement, she'd thrust her dominant hand forward, sending out a wave of high pressured chakra moving as it would as if it were air. It was hurled directly at the target. This was one of her many solutions to long ranged fighting and how she might deal with more powerful targets up close, in the events that she needed to knock someone back a few feet. * - Sun Oct 04 16:13:29 2020 ====================

54.	*Hyuuga, Kizume(Tre sanders) stood her ground as she prepared to unleash another air palm, this time charging it within the opposite hand. She wondered at times, why when compared to other jutsu, did this one ability travel at only half the speed of anyones control over chakra... It might of been something to do with mastery over the air palms. She would never know, but would likely only be able to use it from a close range if that was the case. As most veteran shinobi, if she could tell from her own experience... Were much faster than the typical jutsu. That's when she looked at Jaison and saw how much he was progressing, just as she was about to break one minor limit of her own with the Air Palm, being very close on the brink from Novice to Expert. "You keep that up Jaison and you'll long surpass many of us once you hit our age," she smiled at the way he had learned to train.. For she was more hands on than she could ever be a book learner, everything had to come from experience, and not from the lectures of another.* - Sun Oct 04 16:22:01 2020 ======================
