Bird Country
Chapter 1: Enter the country

Darkness was falling around the Land of Birds, as the sun was settling. The clouds where glimmering in a tint of orange colored. It was the perfect evening for Amaya, it was not too hot on her skin so it meant that she wouldn't burn the skin neither. The weather was calm as it had not rained in the last couple of days, the air wasn't moist nor was it too dry. The young girl was deep in the forest of a strange country. "Hey Kabocha! Are you hungry? Because I sure am" Amaya was preparing to cook a squirrel that she had found and hunted earlier. The young adolescent had spent the better half of an hour wandering around in the woods, picking up small broken branches to light up her fire.

Lucky for her she had pieces of glass to help her use the light to start the flame. She smiled while grabbing hold of the small mouse, she placed the mouse on the grass next to her then sat down in front of the fire, she reached for her pouch and grabbed a knife, the mouse sat there next to her quietly waiting to be fed. "Don't look at me like that Kabocha" She started to skin the rodent that she had earlier killed. It was pretty messy but it did not bother the young girl that much since she had witnessed worse things during her short life. She even smiled during the process, although it might have been because she was excited to eat the small critter. Once she had skinned the rodent, she wiped the blood from her hands and the knife. She cooked the squirrel over the open flame, using a branch to pierce the meat. Amaya was now cooking her dinner and after a while she was going to get ready to eat. Meanwhile her mouse was sitting on her shoulder the entire time and was not much of help.

While the squirrel was cooking, the young girl placed her hand in her left pouch, she took out some pumpkin seeds for the mouse. "Here you go Ka, bo, cha!" The girl pronounced the mouse’s name slowly in an amusing way, she started to laugh a little while he was nibbling her fingers. Her attention changed to the squirrel, which was cooking up pretty nicely. She remembered that she had to gather some water for both her and Kabocha which yet again prompted her to smile. She formed a set of hand seals then opened her mouth to let hot glass molt pour out. She formed the glass into one a glass and one round plate, she then left them there on the grass next to her so it could cool of while Amaya looked for a nearby river. "Wait here and keep and eye on the squirrel"

She turned to wink at the mouse then proceeded to run towards the source of water, she reached the river in the matter of minutes although being on the run got her to take a look around before turning her attention back to the river. She peered to see if the water looked clean, to her it seemed pretty clean as it appeared that way. She smiled then bent down to scoped up some water with her hand, she tasted the water and confirmed that it was clean. She nodded in joy then ran back to the campfire, Amaya picked up the glass then ran back to the river to gather some water. "I guess we are about ready to eat Kabocha!" It was time for the young girl to eat her meal. The squirrel wasn't over cooked like they used to be, this meant that her cookery skills where starting to show progress. She was glad, her training where starting to show, Amaya then ate the rodent. After spending another hour there relaxing it was time to move on. She killed the fire then picked up the mouse, placing him in her left pouch while placing the knife on the right pouch. She destroyed her glass creations then placed the pieces in the middle pouch.

"Now comes the next part of our journey" It was going to be a long walk as they journeyd towards the village of The Bird Country, hoping that she could collect some information on her stepbrother’s location. Who she has been on the hunt since her defection to her country, although she wished to return to her country but she knows how strict the country is to outlaws. She could not look back anymore and had to keep her faith in that she will find her step-brother and kill him for what he did to her. Whenever she thinks about her brother she gets angry and wants to smash something but it wasn't the time to become angry since she had to stay quiet, or risk drawing too much attention towards herself.

Bird Country
Chapter 2: New friends

Dusk, the sun was rising around the Land of Bears. The woods where thick hiding what lied deep within the forest, there where nothing but tries. Occasionally she would find small houses. Most of the villagers where asleep at this hour, while there where some that where up doing their job. They where up doing various jobs such as planting seeds or milking cows. It was mostly men that where awake, working really hard to make their daily raise.

The young girl had been walking for hours with her small pet, she was swaying left and right as her body was struggling to stay up. Her eyes where barely open, the poor adolescent had been awake for the last 32 hours and felt pretty weak. Amaya just wanted to find a small hotel but the only problem is that she didn't have enough money, her last mission hadn't really scored her enough to survive and sleep it seems. She stopped walking as she saw Dai standing in front of her, laughing like a maniac, this was an illusion as the the Shoshiki stood still in front of farm. Before she could warn the pet, the young girl fell to the ground, hitting her head first. It seems as if the young girl had passed out by exhaustion. As her eyes where closing she could see an old woman came to her aid.

16 hours later, the young girl woke up in a small wooden house. She was laying on a white double sided bed. Dazed and confused she realized that she was only wearing her undergarment and a cold wet towel on her forehead. After the girl calmed down she could see a small fire stove supported by solid rock. It was right in front of the bed, warming the room to a wonderful temperature. She saw the old woman stitching up a hole on her dress as she let out a moan of pain that alarmed the old lady. She stopped immediately and ran to the girl. "Mayori! Come here, this poor child needs our help" the old woman shouted out for her daughters name. Mayori entered with another wet towel in her arms. She was around 28 year old and was pretty slim although she was pretty, she had long black hair with the sides one side shaved.

She replaced the towel on Amaya’s head and told her that it will all be ok. "You don't have to worry, you suffered from dehydration and lack of vitamins. Oh and don't worry about your little pet, i've got it. He was quite the little chipper, wouldn't leave you alone. . Heh. " She placed her hand in her pocket then picked out Kabocha, Amaya’s little pet mouse. She realized that she had forgotten about the mouse but soon smiled when she realized that her the pet was okay, that meant that it would fine. "Thank you Mayori, thanks both of you. I. . Will. . Repay you. ." She nodded weakly at the old lady and the young woman as she then closed her eyes, then fell inadvertently asleep. Amaya woke up early in the morning by the bright sun and a heavy feeling in her gut, the young girl was starving but she did not show it to them.

This didn't work on the old lady as noticed. She walked up to Amaya then asked her Mayori to bring in some food for the young girl. "Thank kindly, old lady-san" The old lady laughed which confused Amaya at first before she quickly replied. "Shoushi, Yori" She sat up on the bed and removed the towel from her forehead, she placed it on the desk next to the bed. "Shoshiki, Amaya" The young adolescent gigged at the thought of their name sounding similar, she was interrupted by the young woman who came in with a tray carrying some juice and some hot food. She thanked Mayori for the food, then proceeded eat as she hadn't eaten in a while. And man was it good! In fact it was the best meal she had eaten since she abandoned her old country, for the first time the girl was truly happy. "Oh- I'm glad you enjoyed it!"

Mayori sheared, it almost seemed like cooking good meals was a life goal for her. Amaya smiled although she knew that she had to move soon enough since she did not like to stay in one place to long. One thing was for sure, Amaya wasn't going to be the one that sabotage a family, not like her brother. She grabbed some leftover and placed it next to her mouse to let it eat some of it, then asked the Yori what she could do to pay of for her debt. Yori declined and insisted that her presence was enough for her. "Are you in a hurry?" Amaya nodded as Yori smiled then told her that she should come back someday. The old woman nodded and handed her the evening dress, it was cleaned and looked better than before. Yori told her that she could take a shower if the girl wanted and Amaya agreed, she figured that for now Yori and Mayori had no clue that she was an exiled ninja, she sighed then entered the bath room.

Taking a shower felt well since she had not done that either since she left her burnt down home. All she did was wash herself by some river, while holding a glass shard, fearing that she could be attacked at any time. For once she could shower in peace. After she finished showering the young adolescent got dressed. She exit the bath room then told the Yori that she had to get moving. "Be careful out there, hope you find what you seek before they find you. . And. . Hope you come some day. . " The old woman smiled and told her to take care, she had forgotten her present to Amaya. Fortunately Mayori, her daughter came running after Amaya with four pouches. It seems as if her mother had stitched a new pouches for Amaya to take with.

Mayori caught up smiling as she handed Amaya the pouches. "Be safe" She placed the three pouches at the same spot where she usually puts them, on her backside while the fourth one was in her hands. "Thank you once again for everything and for the extra pouches. . Hopefully i can return but the journey i'm taking doesn't have a safe option, but i will consider it. ." She thanked the woman then kept on moving. Inside the pouch was some shampoo, spices, matches and some oil. It seems as if the young girl had found some new people to trust, which she hadn't found since the death of family members, although most of them warren't close ones. It rejoiced her but it was a shame that she could not stop at this position for the rest of her life as she felt that this would be the kind of place where she could disappear. She knew that if she stopped here then her goal would never be reached, it couldn't end this way. And as the morning was reaching its end, the young girl set up to reach the village before dawn. With her pet on her shoulder and her new friends back in the house she promised to visit once again the young woman's confidence rose and each step felt more powerful as she kept coming closer to her goal.

Bird Country
Chapter 3: The village with a Star
Afternoon in the Bird Country, a village with a shining star shining on top of a large tree in the center. was a stone throw away from Amaya and her small pet. It started to drizzle but it was still cool, the wind was blowing lightly from the east. There were almost no clouds in the sky and the sun peeked out behind some of them.

She saw two guards at the front gate of the village, the walls where tall and thick, they where made of wood and did not look that impressive. But it could still fend of some people she thought.

“Halt!”

The guards raised his hand in front of him, he stopped her and questioned her reason for being here. She looked at him and gave him the answer, which seemed to work. She told him that she was looking for her father who had been missing, and that her mother had told her to come and bring him back, she also said that he could be found in a bar. At first the guard did not believe her but when he saw that she was not wearing any forehead protector and did not look that dangerous at all the men let her in.

“All right but leave before dawn ”

Inside of Hoshigakure the young girl was suppose to find a man which was actually in a bar, he had some information about her brother. His brother who lived in the border of the Rock country told her that she would be able to find him there. As he had visited him the last month. She made sure to buy some food from the store before getting to the store. When she entered the bar, she sat down in a table and ordered some fish. While the fish was being prepared the young girl looked around the bar to see if anyone of these drunks looked like a the brother of which she had met.

She saw a man that looked like him but she did not confront him at first since the fish had already arrived. She made sure to eat it fast. She let her mouse eat the leftovers as usual but she had to sneak him in since you were not allowed to have rodents in bars. After the pet had finished the leftovers the young girl placed him in her left pouch. She walked up to the man and asked if he was related to the man that lived in the hidden rock village.

He nodded and asked her what her business was with him, she smiled because he seemed to want to get to the point and thus cutting the conversation in half. To her the man looked like another dirty hobo drunk but she knew that she needed to play her cards right or else she might loose the little information she have on her brother.

She asked the man what he knew of of her stepbrother, he nodded and started to think. It seems as if it took longer time to respond because he was a bit tipsy, she sighed and waited for him to answer. He placed his hand in front of him and told her that if she wanted information on the man that she was seeking for then she would have to pay him. She paid the man, ignoring the anger that rose within her to make sure that he would answer. He said that the man she was looking for was not in this country, he had left it a couple of days ago. But he told her that he was heading towards the Getsugakure no Sato, he had a friend there named Barikou who maybe would have enough information to guide the young girl, and the last thing he said was to tell Barikou that Yamki sent her. He then waved his hand at her telling her to go away as he ordered a drink.

Amaya started to walk away from the bar when she realized that it was almost dawn. She hurried out of the village and asked the guard which direction the Getsugakure no Sato where at, he first looked at her and asked if she found her father. She gave him a fake smile and nodded his head and said yes but her father had to go and pick something up from there and he wanted to know which direction it was at. He pointed at the east and told her that it should take two days walking for her father to reach the border, he waved her good bye and told her to hurry home.

And thus the journey to the Hidden village under the moon, which her stepbrother was hiding in. her vengeance seemed closer than ever

The Land of Bears
Chapter 4: Border View ^{Prerequisite:} Happy Entertainment The mission seemed to do well for the young girl now that she had gained some money to buy some food and pay for a place to sleep. Although the young woman had wasted the entire day doing it and it was now dawn, the clouds where orange colored and the weather was clear. It was not that warm anymore but rather cool like always.

She had been walking for a couple of hours before she had to stop to find some food. She spent 15 minutes looking for food in the forest and found some berries, which seemed to work. She did not find anything better this time, but she did not want to stay in the forest for too long since she did not want to encounter some bears or other big animals. So she picked up so much that she had to carry it with her arms close to her chest, she ate some of them while walking to the border of the Land of bears but it seems as if the border is pretty far from here and the sun was pretty much gone.

Night had now fallen and the girl knew that she had to find somewhere to sleep soon or else she would have to walk all night once again and she did not want to do that again. She picked up some money from her pouch, she knew that this should be enough for a farmer to accept her offer. She made sure that Kabocha was not hungry and then hid him in her pouch.

Thock! Thock!

The girl knocked on one farmer door and waited for the farmer to open the door, she begged for forgiveness for coming late and knocking on his door, he nodded and told her that it was ok but what was her business here. She told the man that she just wanted to have somewhere to sleep and she would gladly pay for the one night visit. The man laughed and shook his head, he told her that it was nonsense that she should pay for her visit. In fact the man was happy to have some company, he shouted out his wife’s name and told her that the young girl needed some space to sleep on. She nodded and prepared a bed for her, Amaya smiled and nodded, she thanked the man and walked in. There inside the house they ate some food and talked about some adventures they had been. Amaya listened to their stories about how robbers tried to steal their cattle’s and various things. She nodded and was inspired by the mans bravery. Since he was just a regular farmer and not some high-class ninja.

His wife seemed pretty pleased by her heroic husband and held his arm while he was talking about his stories, later that night the young girl fed her mouse in private while they prepared to sleep. When they slept soundly the young girl prepared herself to sleep too, although she could not sleep to well since her paranoia started to kick in, she thought in various types of way the farmer could attack her but soon enough exhaustion got the best of her and she passed out of tiredness.

When she woke up the woman of the house had made some breakfast for her since her husband was already up and working by the time the young girl opened her eyes. She had made some bread with juice on the side, it was not much but better than the berries she had been eating. She thanked the woman and started to eat the food. When she was done eating the food, the woman took the plate and the glass, while she went to the kitchen to clean up, the young girl took the opportunity to hide some money in their drawers. She then picked up her stuff and saluted the woman good bye. On her way out the girl met the man, he was sweaty and was exhausted, it seems like he needed to rest. She told him that she had to leave but she would return to the Land of Bears some day, he nodded and laughed. He told her that if she does, she better come back and visit.

On the road the young woman was even more confident that she maybe, just maybe could make the land of bears her new country to reside in since her old one would never accept her again. Therefore she was determined that she would have to kill her stepbrother and then take on life from there on. To see if she can find her own heaven, her own place where she can live calm for the rest of her life. All she knew was that with her pet with her she could take on anything in the world. And no one in the world would be able to stop her

The Land of Bears
Chapter 5: Close But No Cigar


Nightfall over the Land of bears, the wind was chill and the heat was cool. The young girl had almost reached the border to the hidden land under the moon, which she could find some more information on her stepbrother. She had enough money to make it to a village and buy some supply if she needed to. With her pet with her and the border closing in, the young girl felt even more empowered. The feeling that was rising within her was almost too good to be true.

“Ka,bo,cha! Do you want to eat? If so then you have to eat now before we go deep into the woods”

She took out the pet from her pouch and fed him, while he was eating the young girl was keeping watch from bigger animals. As she did not want him to be attacked by bigger predators. Owls, snakes, bears and wolves where roaming around in these woods. The girl was not really that well equipped to handle a attack from a pack of wolves, not even a bear to tell the truth. She picked Kabocha up and placed him in her pouch.

The woods were filled with strange animals, she made sure that her pet mouse was inside her pouch so no animal would see it. And therefore no animal would attack her unless they could smell it. But she had rubbed in pumpkin seed on the mouse skin.

“Hey, Kabocha stay quiet, I can sense something in the woods”

And the young woman’s intuitions where correct, there where two wolves growling inside the woods. It seems as if this time they where after the young girl instead of her pet. When she looked around to see if there where any more wolves, the leader ran at her. She punched the wolf but since she is not that strong the punch would do no good. While the leader attacked her two more wolves came out from the dark woods, she knew that she was overwhelmed and had to act quickly. She threw kunais and shurikens at the wolves but the damage was not that gravely. She started to run away from the wolves but they caught up with her pretty fast. The wolf leader bit her left hand whiles she punched the other wolf. She screamed in pain while the other wolves started to gang up on her.

“Kso, Kabocha I cant hold on much longer”

She saw an owl watching over the battlefield and had to think fast, she threw the kunai at it. Instantly killing it, the owl fell down on the ground, dead. The wolves gave up on the girl and ravaged the owl, she took the opportunity to escape. She made sure to kill any small animal on the way so that the wolves would stop on each dead animal.

She stopped to lay bandage on her wound, even though she had no skill in Iljutsu but she still managed to stop the bleeding for now. She ran as fast as she could away from the forest and ended in a canyon. There was a river running through it, it was over 150 meters down to the bottom of the canyon. When she turned around to see if a wolf was still-hunting her, she saw a wolf jump and tackle her down the canyon. The wolf tried to bite her face but missed, while she was falling for her death, the young girl focused on her feet so that she could walk on the wall. Letting the wolf fall down towards the water, when’s she managed to stand on the wall, the wolf fell down towards what would be its death.

“Kso, those wolves are insane! What the fuck are they thinking”

she looked up towards the top of the cliff and saw that the other wolves where standing there over the edge. She chose to run down towards the lake, but when she was about 15 meters away from the bottom the young girls almost ran empty while her adrenaline ran thin. Making her pass out.

She fell down those 15 meters in to the river, the river carried her over eight kilometers away from her current position. She was lucky enough to float on the right side up, giving her the chance to survive. The wolves followed her from the top of the cliffs but could not reach her and had to take a detour while the leader miraculously survived the fall.She slipped in and out of consciousness but all she could do was watch the sky whiles she was floating away. Thankfully the pouch was waterproof so that her pet mouse could survive inside it.

Kso, i cannot move, all i can do is follow the stream for now... Damn it, i feel weak!

A fisher man fished Amaya up from the river, he carried her on to his boat and took her to his house.

The Land of Bears
Chapter 6: Wake Up Miss


“H..e..y..! A…e Y…o…h…e…r…i..n..g.. me? Young…irl…kso!”

The young girl had slipped in and out of consciousness. All she really could remember was that an old fisher had lifted her out of the water and placed her on one of his beds. His wife had been taking care of her while he had to go back out to fish. She had been sitting right next to Amaya, helping her out in various ways such as placing a cold wet towel on her forehead, removing the band aid and stitch the bite marks shut. Stopping the blood from sipping out of the holes.

After two days of unconsciousness the young girl finally woke up, the fisherman’s wife was still sitting next to her. She told Amaya to take it easy as she had fractured one of her right rib from the fall. She placed her hand on her rib and could feel the pain rising, she screamed out loud before passing out from the pain. Another day had passed before she woke up once more, but this time the young girl rose up from the bed slowly. She removed the towel from her forehead and placed it on the drawers right next to her, the fisherman’s wife helped her up and walked with her to the table it was then she actually realized that she was not wearing her regular cloth. They had changed her cloth, she freaked out and started searching for her pouch. Even though it hurt, the young girl had to find her pet mouse. But as she was searching, the fisherman’s wife walked up to her and told her that if she was searching for her mouse then she should calm down and look at the table.

The mouse was at the table eating some food, the young girl sighed and asked her how she knew that it was her pet. She answered by telling her that the mouse food gave it away. Amaya smiled and walked back to the table. She felt safer now, knowing that her pet was alive.

“Thank you miss! You have no clue how much that little mouse means to me.”

She bowed in front of her and then started to eat the fish her husband had caught, she told her that she would repay her for saving her and her pet. After she ate her food and thanked the old fisherman's wife, the young girl walked out of the house. She had trouble walking fast since the rib was really aching and placing her hand over it seemed to help a little. Outside the sun was shining and the wind was cool, she seemed to have washed up in a small fisher village. Most men where out on their boats while the women where out washing their dirty cloth

“This is one of the most beautiful village I have ever seen, what do you think Kabocha”

She looked back at the table, to see if her pet was looking. Indeed he was and started to walk to the edge of the table, Amaya walked to him and picked him up. After the young woman had picked up the pet, they started to walk towards the door. She could once again smell the fresh air mixed with the scent of the ocean. She was lucky because if she had floated out towards the ocean then she would surely have died from blood loss.

She started to limp out towards the nearby bridge, she was looking for the fisher who had saved her life. At the bridge, the young girl found the fisher. She wanted to tell him that she would help him for saving her. When she told him that, the old man smiled and told her that she should first rest well and maybe she could help him out. The both laughed, but she stopped the pain was too much.

"Anyway, I am going to take a walk around for now old man. I hope you get enough fish for everyone here. Good Luck! ”

She winked and giggled a little while the man bursted out in laughter, he nodded and went back to his fishing. While the young girl started to limp around the small village

*Thermometer E-Ranked Ninjutsu
This simple technique is utilized by medical-nin in place of traditional thermometers, although it is not as accurate. After forming a single handseal and focusing chakra into an object in his/her hand, the user can place it within the mouth (or rear) of the patient. If the patient's temperature is above normal body temperature, the chakra within the object will clump together near the top of it, while if the body temperature is below average, the chakra will form much lower down on the object. This technique can be held as long as the user has chakra.

The Land of Bears
Act:1, Training for a better future.
Early morning over the Land of Bears, the sun was bright in the cloudless day, the summer breeze was chill on their sweaty foreheads and the water was still in the fisherman village.
Amaya was awakened by a village boy asking if she could help his sick brother, the young girl rose up and wiped her eyes. The light shine bright through the cracks of the house, she opened walked out through the open door and followed him to his cabin. In there she could see a small chair and a book and a thermometer on top of the table in front of the chair. Further back was a bed with a sick boy's.

"He seems to have a fever.

Amaya then sat down and started to read a book on medicinal studies, she needed to check the temperature on a sick boy. As the young girl read the book she performed a set of hand seals and focused on channeling chakra to her hand, she channeled the chakra to the thermometer and then turned around to see the sick boy. As she stood up and walked towards the boy she could hear him cough. He looked pale, sweaty and looked unhealthy. She wiped his forehead and placed the thermometer in his mouth.

" Now let us see what your temperature is "

She looked at it, it but had not focused enough chakra so the thermometer did not respond. She looked at the boy and hoped that his fever would drop.

Hang on...

She closed her eyes and focused. She could her the cough again. She was motivated and performed the set of seals, then channeling chakra once more on the thermometer. She opened her eyes and placed it in his mouth. She waited a couple of seconds and then looked at it. Once again it seemed as if she had failed with her training. Amaya performed the hand seals and placing more chakra in on the equipment, then placed it once more in his mouth. Waited a couple of seconds and then looked at it.

41°c, This was at a dangerous level. This is bad

She removed the thermometer and then proceeded to grab a towel, she drenched it in cold water. Twisted it a little and then placed it on his forehead. She moved back to the seat and changed pages trying to find something to help clear this fever. His brother walked up to her and pulled her clothes gently and asked if he was going to be okay. She turned and told him that she would do anything she can to save him. She petted his head and then told him that she needs some space, the boy nods and then runs to his brothers side.

The Land of Bears

Stamina Training 2>3

The sun was rising in the Land of Bears, today was a cold day for it had rained the other day and the clouds where still in the air. It looked like it was going to drizzle today, she could feel it in the air. The wind was still today which fortunate since it would be even colder if the wind was active.

Amaya was walking through the thick forest, she felt that she had to train her stamina. Because she could be attacked by anything, at any time. And she did not want to lose to anyone, not until she had beaten her brother whom she was still searching for. She was sure that she was on the right track and planned on do a morning run towards the border of the country to gain speed and gain some stamina as well.

When the time felt right, the young girl started to jog. The wind felt well on her skin since she was not used to being in a warm area and preferred to have it too cold than having it too warm. The young girl was not the best at track running but did her best to push herself to her limits, the sweat started to pour down from her forehead as her body started to get worked up.

She had to stop from time to time to catch her breathe, she did not only jog forwards. She ran into the woods to run around in a small makeshift obstacle coarse, jumping over small trenches and various of small rivers that where running through the woods. She stopped from time to time to drink some water from the small rivers, the water was not that tasty but it still was good enough. She even wiped her sweat off, because she really felt uncomfortable when her body was sticky.

During her training the young girl kept talking to her pet which helped her forget about the time, and therefore the training went a lot smother, but as time progressed the young girl felt that her leg muscles could not handle all the running and had to stop for the moment. She prepared her food while she was still fatigued from all the running, her hands where shaking and her legs where aching. She knew that she had to eat and rest for her to recover.

It started to drizzle as she had predicted, since it was not logical for her to train while it was drizzling the young girl set up shelter. She knew that she had to wake up early if her training would have any impact.

Early on the next day, the young girl prepared to take another crack at running. She fed her little mouse and then started jogging, while she was jogging the girl reached in her pouch to grab Kabocha. When she had Kabocha in her hands, the young girl then placed him on her shoulders so that she could speak to him. She felt that it was more fun since she had no one else to talk too and lets face it, if we did not have anyone to talk to then we all would go crazy.

The training had gone smother today than what it had done the day before, the wind was brisk and the weather was cool. The sun was hiding behind some clouds, although there where not that many clouds in the sky, just a hand full. The air was a bit thicker than yesterday but she was still able to jog without having trouble breathing. Although she started to sweat faster than yesterday since it was hotter. The young girl started to breath heavier and heavier as the time progressed. She started to feel amped up whenever she started thinking of her stepbrother, he always seemed to be one step ahead of her. She clinched her fists and started to jog faster, the adrenaline started to rush all over her body. It seems as if she could no longer feel the burn on her legs, her lungs felt heavier as she took deeper and deeper breath.

“Kso, Dai! I will find you and kill you for what you did to my father!”

The only image that was shown inside her head was her father laying on the floor dead somewhere in the savanna of Iwagakure no Sato. She could only think of how could her stepbrother was, how he could force her to do his chores and now this. She hated him from the bottom of her heart and wanted to avenge her father, and nothing was going to stop her. As she picked up speed, her pet bit her shoulder to calm her down. Her first reaction was that someone tried to grab the mouse but when the young girl looked over at her shoulder, she could only see that her mouse looked her in her eyes. She stopped running and closed her eyes. She took a deep breathe to release her anger

“Arigato, Kabocha! I seem to have lost myself in my anger. I should have kept my cool.”

She started to think about something positive, instead of thinking about her brother evil deeds. The young girl started to focus on her main goal, to train her stamina. She smiled at her pet and wiped the sweat from her forehead, she started to jog again. It seems as if the positive thoughts had pumped her up enough to start taking the training serious again. She jogged out of the woods and it seems as if she found the track to a small village near the border of the land of bears.

She stopped running when she saw a merchant walking down the road, he was carrying a bag full of food and spices. She asked him for directions to the border, he nodded and pointed towards the east. He also told her that it would take two days for her to reach there. He also questioned why she was sweaty and wondered if she was chased by some wild animal. The young girl smiled and shock her head.

“Nope! I was just taking a light morning jog, anyway thank you mister for the help and I hope the best to you, good luck on your sale! ”

She waved good bye to the merchant and started to jog towards the east, she wanted to reach the border as soon as possible. The merchant smiled and continued his way towards the village. The sun was now setting behind her while the moon was slowly rising in front of her, she was happy because now she had trained to become stronger and now knew exactly where the border was.

"Get ready Dai! I am gunning for you, and if you are not prepared then i will end your life like a small puppy dog you are!"

~Garaton • Surudoi Kobushi no Jutsu [Glass Element • Sharp Fist Technique]
C-Rank Ninjutsu
Although it says fist, this technique can be used on any body part. It covers the chosen body part with sharp shards of glass. One potential flaw is that the glass must be available beforehand: this technique does not create them for you. Obviously, the glass will add some power to your punches and kicks.

The Land of Bears

The sun was rising over the Land of Bears, the land was cool and the wind was calm which was pretty unusual. There where only a hand full of clouds today and therefore it would become a lot hotter than yesterday.

Amaya, knew that she would have to start training some jutsus too if she was going to have a chance against her brother. Although she had no jounin to show her what to do, the young girl had faith in that she would be able to understand the scroll she was given by her father before he died. The scoll was secret and was only to be used for clan members from the Shoshiki.

She sat down by a tree stump, she sat with her legs crossed. She sat with her pet on her shoulder she opened the scroll. She wanted to train as fast as possible since she did not want to waste her time on not doing anything today. She knew that she would not be able too much for a long time anyway, since the sun was probably going to cook her if she did not stay hidden in the shadows. It was a curse for being part of such a weak clan. Most of the clan members where pale and usually stay inside, but not Amaya since she had bigger plans.

She started to read the scroll, it said that the user would have to have some glass to use as weapon. The jutsu described that she would focus on having the glass on her fist or her feet to give her some more power when she attacked her enemy. She read out which hand seals she had to perform. When she read through the entire scroll, the young girl nodded and looked at her small pet Kabocha.

“Well today we are going to perform a new cool technique, I hope that this will help me some more in close quarter combat. Man I wished that I had trained some more before I left Iwa ”

The young girl told the young mouse. She started by removing her pouch from her backside, the middle one. It contained five pounds of broken glass, which Amaya had picked up on the road. She placed it gently between her crossed legs. She opened it to prepare to train in the new jutsu.

“Okay, Kabocha are you ready?”

She asked jokingly, because the real question was for her since she had no one to talk to. Then she saw that her mouse nodded at her. The young girl started by performing the hand seals one by one. At first she did it slowly for her to remember them clearly. After a while the young girl started to perform the jutsu for real, she focused chakra on the glass shards to move closer to her fist. At first the it did not work because she did not use enough chakra.

She restarted the process by reading the scroll over again, after that she performed the hand seals and then concentrated chakra on the shards. They started to shake a little but it was not enough to make them move away from the pouch to her fist. She stopped performing the jutsu for a while, she needed to recoup from the chakra loss. She knew that she could not keep doing it to many times so quickly.

After a couple of minutes the young girl started once more, she performed the correct set of hand seals. The glass started to shake and lift of the pouch but it was not enough to move it to the fist again, although this gave the young girl a confidence boost. Which she actually desperately needed.

“Alright Kabocha, It is almost completed”

She shut her eyes and started to perform the hand seals again, the glass shook and lifted out of the pouch and up to her fist. They stayed there for since the young girl concentrated on her chakra. Although it had not moved as fast as the young girl had hoped to. She chose to stand up and back away from the pouch a little. She opened her eyes and saw that the glass from her fist had fallen on the ground, now she knew that she could make it move to her legs if she could focus well enough.

This time I will make it work perfectly, it must go faster. Because in a real life situation, a ninja does not have time to spend on doing nothing but concentrating on moving glass. It's not like the enemy will give me that free time!

She focused once more on getting the glass to move, she performed the right set of hand seals and concentrated on moving the glass from the ground to her feet. The glass shook and then moved towards her feet, it stick to her feet while she even moved around, she tried to kick it off but the glass would not move. She knew that she had almost perfected the jutsu, she started to perform another set of hand seals to move the glass from her feet up to her fist. The glass moved from her feet up to her fist as she tried to punch a nearby tree. The glass broke but the young girl did not start to bleed, as she removed her hand from the tree. She saw that the glass had now hit the tree and left some scratch marks. She knew that this could come to help when she was needed to use taijutsu to save her life.

“YEEEES!!! I did it! I did it! I finaly perfected the jutsu.”

She jumped up and down of joy. She stopped and looked around to see if anyone was watching, after looking around for a while, the young girl fist pumped out of joy.

The Land of Bears


Control Training 2>3

Nightfall over The land of Bears, the wind is calm, the weather is cool and the water is still. There is a fishing village five hundred meters to the south of Amaya's position, where a man had saved her for a couple of months ago.

The area consist of two trees in the center of a hundred diameters grassland, while the outside this diameter is covered in woods. There is a large river that runs from the northern part of the woods to the south, there are small pebble sticking out on the side of the river and some small rocks. The river runs between the two trees. Next to one tree was Amaya, she was sitting down in front of it with her legs crossed and her eyes closed. She was concentrating because it was almost time for her to start her control training. The young ninja wanted to be able to control her jutsus in a faster and more efficient way. She reached in her middle pouch to grab hold of some broken glass, she placed it in front of her. Then she started to channel chakra on the ground next to her to connect with the glass pieces on the floor, when she felt the connection, the young girl opened her eyes.

"Garaton....Garasu Shuriken"

One glass piece flew towards the tree swish... Tsck! the sharp glass struck the tree and shattered into smaller pieces. She focused again and this time sent two at the same time Swish..Swish...Tsck!..Tsck! as the two glass pieces shattered the ninja sent two more. It seemed like that controlling two at the time did not take that much chakra.

"Garaton....Garasu Shuriken"

She then tried to focus on the remaining five glass shards and could feel that it drew more chakra than she wanted to. The five shards hit the tree shattering into a pile of glass mess, mixing up with the other glass shards. The nodded and reached in her left pouch and grabbed her pet mouse Kabocha and placed him on her right shoulder.

"It seems that when I send two at the same time it wasted a lot less chakra then when i send out five... Is my chakra control that bad "

The young girl opened her mouth and spewed out hot glass mold, she started to form the mold into four glass kunai's and then held them until they cooled off. She then preceded to repeat, that exact same step over and over until she had twelve glass kunai's on her side but she started to feel a bit woozy from over using her chakra so she picked up the kunai's and slowly walked towards the tree and laid down next to the tree trunk.

"Hey Kabocha.... I... I feel woozy...Ugh.. Bite my shoulder If something is amiss... Good.....Night"

A couple of hours pass by as the young girl took a power nap under the tree, while the little rodent on her shoulder kept guard. By the time she woke up the sun was rising over the land of bears, the sunlights hit the broken glass from yesterday and gleamed on Amayas face. She frowned and covered her face with her left hand and gave out a huge yawn. The wind seems to have picked up some speed and it was a bit warmer but the massive trees on the outskirt covered a lot of ground so Amaya did not have to be in the sunlight.

Aaah time to wake up Amaya and return to your training

The young ninja thought as she pulled herself up, dusted off her bottom and then cracked her neck. She smiled and then looked at Kabocha who was now sleeping, let out a small chuckle.

"Never really been a good guard dog Kabocha but have always been a good partner"

Amaya then grabbed her kunai's then she moved to her former position in front of the tree, ready to train once again. Amaya sat down and placed the five kunai's on each side of her and two in front of her. She closed her eyes and then crossed her legs, she started focusing chakra around her. She slowly opened her eyes and sent two kunai's from each side fly towards the tree. Swish.SwishSwishSwish These glass kunai's where stronger than the glass shard and stuck tow the tree, she could feel that the amount of chakra wasted on this jutsu was a bit high and she really concentrated on trying to cut down the chakra cost. She closed her eyes and tried to focus again but this time using less chakra.

Swish.SwishSwish.Swish.Pling..Thunk.Thunk.Thunk

It seems as if one of the kunai's did not get enough chakra to propel to tree and fell halfway through. A sweat drop fell from Amayas forehand and she could feel that she had started to burn some chakra but was determined to try once again but before doing so the young girl grabbed kaboocha and placed him on her lap to make sure that she did not pass out on top of him. She leaned forward and grabbed the kunai that did not reach the tree and once again placed it next to her. She then closed her eyes and started to focus once again, she inhales, opens her eyes and exhales using the minimum amount of chakra that she thinks is needed to propel the five Kunai's that are next to her. Four out of five propel but the young ninja did not quit she pressed out a little more chakra to make the last one fly away. She smiled, she seemed to get the feeling of it all. She started to sweat and tapped her mouse head with her index finger. The mouse woke up and looked at its master while she fell backwards breathing heavily.

"Kaa....bocha.... I am going to pass out soon again... This time do not fall asleep"

She reached in her in her left pouch and grabbed some cheese for the rodent, then raised herself and the mouse to move towards the tree trunk. She laid down and closed her eyes once again, with her pet in her hand and the cheese in the other, holding the hands together so it could eat and keep the perimeter as well. Three hours passed by while Amaya was sleeping, she could hear a chirp and it twitched her awake! She panicked and looked for her mouse and noticed that it was still there. With that in mind she placed him in her pouch and rose up, dislodged ten kunai's from the tree. And then walked to the same spot and sat down. She looked around and saw that the sun had risen higher, now there where barely any shadow in the opening except from the two trees and luckily for her it cover her as well. She looked around to see if there where any birds around to hunt since she started to grow hungry.

She only saw two birds and it seemed as if that would be enough for her, she placed the ten kunai's next to her and focused, this time she did not close her eyes instead she was keeping her eyes on the birds. She then focused what she now thought was the minimal to use five kunai's and it seems as she was correct as the five kunai's flew towards the birds. She let out a big puff as they hit the bird but the other one started to fly away. She grabbed the five kunai's and gave chase trying to focus on the move was hard since she had to mind her surroundings but still managed to send out the other five towards the bird, they managed to kill the other bird as well. It seems as if she had become a little better at controlling her chakra and at the same time caught some food. She smiled and wiped her forehead from sweat. Amaya grabbed the birds and the some of the broken glass then placed the glass in her middle pouch.

"Well it seems as if its time to head back to the village"

~[Glass Element • Shrapnel Bomb]
D-Rank Ninjutsu
After forming the needed hand seals and flooding their mouth with chakra, the user will gather molten glass, much like [Glass Element • Make], but giving it explosive properties. The user will then spit the molten glass into their hand in a baseball-sized mass, and will shape it into a ball. Then, they will throw the hardened glass at an opponent. It can then be exploded with the use of a single hand seal, exploding with the force of a single exploding tag, and sending glass shrapnel flying in all directions.

The Land of Bears


The sun raised at the land of the bears, it had rained the other day so the weather was hot and moist. The forest seemed quieter this day, the wind was non existing, the clouds covered most of the sky and it looked like it was going to rain later on this day. It was the same area that the ninja had trained on before which consisted of two trees in the center of a hundred diameters grassland, while the outside this diameter is covered in woods. There is a large river that runs from the northern part of the woods to the south, there are small pebble sticking out on the side of the river and some small rocks. The river runs between the two trees. Next to one tree was Amaya, she was sitting down in front of it with her legs crossed and her eyes closed. She opened her eyes and saw that the tree in front of her had some cuts and gashes from the last time she was here. It felt good for the glass ninja since it would not be to hot for her, so she could be outside all day without the fear of sunburns. She took out a scroll from her pouch and started reading it.

All i need to do is do a set of hand seals and then focus chakra to my mouth, spit out some molten glass but this time place some chakra into it. So that later on I can explode it. Hmm this seems interesting

The young girl closed the scroll once she had read through it and proceeded to place it back into her pouch. She started performing the required set of hand seals, then focused on changeling chakra to her mouth. She opened her mouth and spat out some molten glass on her hands, she preceded to form it into a small ball. She looked at it and hoped that it would work, she waited for it to cool down and then threw it with all of her might. Which wasn't a lot but enough to reach the tree. She formed the seal to make it explode but it failed, therefor hitting the tree and shattering. She sighed at her failure and re-tried. She formed the seals again and this time focused a little bit. Opened her mouth again and spat out the molten glass.

Come on work damn it! It cannot be that hard

She thought, while looking at the glass and proceeded to shape it. She then rose up to her feet, looked at the tree and utilized all of her force into throwing the glass ball. She performed the hand seal required to make it explode but yet again it seemed to fail as the glass ball broke against the tree. Her head fell down from disappointment, she started to wonder what she had done wrong. So she reached into her pouch again and re-read the scroll. Her eyes opened up wider as if she had figured out what she had done wrong, she quickly close the scroll and placed it back into her pouch again. Now determined that she would be able to perform this jutsu, the young girl performed the set of hand seals with confident. Then proceeded to spit out the molten glass but this time focusing a little more chakra on it, she shaped it into the a ball and once again waited for it to cool down.

Let's see if this works then.

She focused her best on throwing the glass ball towards the tree, this time it flew a lot towards the left of the tree. Completely missing it, but it did not seem to matter as Amaya formed the hand seal to make it explode.

BOOOOM!

The ball exploded and sent shrapnel everywhere, some lodged into the tree while others went on flying away. It seems as if the young girl had managed to perform it correctly. But since she did not want it to be just a fluke the young girl sat down and focused her chakra. Then slowly formed the needed hand seals, she opened her mouth and spat out some molten glass. But this time she had already focused enough chakra on to it so she would not need channel that through her hands. Then waited for it to cool down, focused her aim on the tree hoping to hit it, not wanting to miss it like the last time. She then threw it again towards the tree and formed the right hand seal making it explode again but this time it seemed to use less chakra. She knew that this would good as it took less time to perform and used less chakra.

"With this I will be able to cause some trouble on the battlefield"

-:-Garaton • Hitoshirezu Senbons [Glass Release • Hidden Senbons]
D-Ranked
After performing a hand seal, Amaya focuses chakra to either her mouth or another molten glass to be able to shoot out glass senbons, these senbons are thin and see through so spotting them are extra hard. They almost cool down instantly, whether it is spat out from her mouth or from another source. She can only send out five at the time, flying at four speed and feels like it pierces with three strength when they all hit home. And it more likely it was shatter after it penetrates an opponent.

The Land of Bears


The young girl sat in a middle of a meadow, the grass was tall. Reached up to her chest, in front of her was a target on top of a well. She had placed it here this beautiful night, the wind was still so nothing would disturb her training. She looked at the senbon she could borrow from a friend. She was expecting making a glass version of a senbon but in a more efficient way. Amaya sat down and focused on how she would make this jutsu work out. She could create it by spitting it out and mold them in her hand but that would take far to long time. She then figured that she could try to spit it out and then send it flying towards where she is aiming directly. But how would that work?

Alright whats the game plan? Focus my chakra to my mouth and then spit out a senbon by shaping my lips.I think that should work. I hope it does

She formed a hand seal then proceeded to spit out some small molten glass. They failed to catch speed and therefor just fell on the grass. Smoke emerged from the grass but quickly died out, Luckily for her it had rained a couple of days earlier so the ground was still somewhat wet. She formed the hand seal again and then spat out a small molten this time the molten flew out faster but missed the target. It was not a senbon shape yet but if she kept at it this jutsu would be over in no time. After repeating the hand seal again the nukenin spit out once more, this time there where two small molten pellets shooting out of her mouth. One barely graced the target whiles the other was far of, she smiled as she knew that she was really getting somewhere. She took a deep breath then closed her eyes. All she could think of was the shape of the senbon, it was sharp, long and thin.

A simple tool, but a deadly tool in the right hands.

This could work perfectly as a stealth jutsu since she would not have to focus a lot of time on spiting out the molten glass and forming it, it would also be hard to spot. She formed the seal then focused chakra to her mouth, she could feel the molten glass inside her mouth. She opened her left eye and focused on the target. This time she was going to try to form it into a senbon, she spat. It shaped into a narrow glass shard but not quite a senbon, it hit the target but shattered. She opened her right eye and spat again, the shape was even more resemblance to a senbon. This half senbon, half shard hit the target and lodged. She formed the seal one last time and focused once more. She counted down from three and spat out one senbon at the time.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5! This is magnificent!

They all struck the target, hitting it and then shattering into small pieces that lodge onto the target. She smiled and raised one hand up as a happy gesture.

"Yes!"

She rose, and started to walk towards her home. It was time for her to go to sleep, if she could get any that is.

D-Rank Ninjutsu
_{Prerequisite:}
Garaton • Renzu Supai [Glass Element • Spy Lens]
This technique requires that Amaya has used the spy lens technique, after doing so she forms a set of hand seals that let her open her eyes. She will now be able to see through the lenses and her own eyes. Although this requires her to focus on the other eyes, which drops her wit by one. This jutsu can only work if the lenses are within two hundred yards away from her.

The Land of Bears



It was evening at the land of bears, it was a quiet day, people where busy attending their business so they did not notice the young girl strolling past them. Today was another training day for the young ninja, but she did not really know what to train today. She walked to her favorite training spot, deep in the forest. There was a small opening, it was pretty much undistrubed. She walked to the middle and sat down, concentrating. Her legs crossed and her arms resting on her knees.

What jutsu can i create today? Be creative.

She placed her hands inside one of her pouches, looking for something. Something to help her creative flow, she touched one of her contact lenses and came up with an idea.

What if i create a jutsu that lets me see through the lenses and be able to see with my eyes, This sounds hard but i should be able to do it. I hope i can.

The young girl formed a set of hand seals and let the lenses fly of in the air. She had her eyes closed now and could see perfectly from the lenses. Now would be the time to figure out how to do the jutsu, she formed a set of hand seals hoping that it would work, she focused chakra to her eyes and opened them slowly. As she opened her eyes the lenses stopped working, she closed them quickly and could again see through the lenses. She knew that she had failed.

Okay that did not work. Think Amaya, think.

The girl sat there for a minute, thinking about how she could fix this jutsu. She retried the hand seals and then focused chakra on her eyes again, this time she could feel the chakra flow to her eyes. She opened her eyes once again, slowly. The same results, it seems as if she has missed a link between the eyes, the lenses and the brain. What could it be, what could the young girl be missing. She could feel the wind blow and could feel how the lenses swayed a little, she was determind. She formed the set of hand seals again but this time ended it with a clap, she focused chakra to her eyes and her brain. She could feel that it started to hurt her head a little, but she ignored it. She slowly opened her eyes and this time her regular eyes could see but the lenses gave a blurry overhead view of her.

It was creepy but it was not perfected, Amaya held her head and focused more chakra to the brain. The view got clearer and it seems as if she could now see through her eyes and the lenses, she held a hand seal and moved the lenses to a better possition. She could now cover her back with the lenses as she could fight and see from the front. The things she could do with this jutsu was marvelous but at the same time taxing on the mind, the young girl shrugged. The jutsu was complete, now it was just time to adjust to the new way of seeing things.

Ugh my head hurts a little, but this should be great for defence. If i use this correctly i could be able to see from my team mates eyes and guard their back and their front. Also they could guard my back my better, a hell of a lot better.

-:- Garaton • Hada Dekidaka [Glass Element • Skin Production]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
After forming a set of hand seals, Amaya start to produce molten glass from her sweat glands rather than her mouth, which cools into a glass defense quickly but limits movement. At this rank the glass created is half an inch thick and can withstand 5 strength hits before breaking.

The Land of Bears

Amaya sat down in a small clearing in the forest, it was dark and quiet. The animals seemed to be sleeping, she was alone. For now.

I need to figure out a way to produce glass from somewhere else than my mouth, could i create glass from my sweat glands? I certainly do not want to create glass from my eyes.

She sat with her legs crossed and her arms resting on her knees, she moved her left arm to her right arm and rolled her sleeve up to the elbow. She formed a set of hand seals and then sat down and focused chakra to her right arm as she normally would focus to her mouth. She examined her arm for a minute and could see that it started to glow a little as if molten glass started to produce, but nothing came out of her pores. She had failed.

Hmm, I really hate failing the simplest jutsu.. Well this is not that simple but anyway focus Amaya! What could did i do wrong? Maybe i did not focus enough chakra on my arm?

The adolescent looked at her arm for a while, focusing chakra to it. She could sense that her chakra underneath her skin, then the young girl formed a set of hand seals. She focused more chakra to her right arm, it started to glow once again. There where some production but for now it still did not spew out molten glass, she tried placing her hand on top of the arm, she could feel that the arm was heating up. She closed her eyes and focused chakra to her left hand, to feed her right arm. Amaya could sense that more molten glass was building up, she stopped pouring chakra on the arm and looked if she had gotten any new results.

Now lets see if this finally works?

Her eyes widened as she could see that a couple of spots on her right arm was covered in molten glass, finally it seems to be working out for the young ninja. She smiled as she knew that she was getting a hang of things, but at the same time the young ninja knew that it would be bad if this jutsu took this long time to perform and especially if she has to use her hands as well to help feed the pours enough chakra. She waited for the glass to harden then brushed the glass of off her arm, she then formed the hand seals once more. The glow was stronger than before, she could feel how it produced a lot more molten glass, this time the patches where a lot bigger than before. Nearly covering her entire forearm, she then placed her left hand over it and focused more chakra to it. The molten glass covered the arm, then it cooled down. She could feel how heavy her arm became, the young girl knocked on the glass to feel how hard and solid it was.

Hmph.. This could work as a defensive jutsu and an offensive.. I could create new jutsu using this technique.. A faster way to perform the glass chakram, skin needles, glass sword.

It seems as if there where about hundred jutsu the girls could create with this new way but in order for her to start training for those the young girl would need to master this one. She started to form the same hand seal once more but this time she wanted to melt the glass to re molten to remove it, after the glass heated up and fell of her arm, the young girl could start over again. She formed the seal once more and focused chakra on her right arm for the fourth time, this time she could feel how the molten glass could cover the entire arm, so she focused on her left arm and could feel how it started to produce hot molten glass there as well. This was good, but she could not see how much glass was being created on her left arm, so she formed a seal then broke the glass of her. She proceeded to take of her shirt, she could feel the cold wind hitting her entire upper body. All she had on her was a light blue bra, with this the young girl could see if she could produce glass all over her upper body.

Wow its colder than i thought, the shirt was so warm.. Well for the sake of the jutsu i have to withstand this.. Well at least the glass can heat up my skin.

The girl had goose bumps all over her upper body, she ignored it and started to form the needed hand seals. She closed her eyes as she needed to focus a lot more than before, she opened her eyes and could see that her body was glowing red, it seems as if the jutsu was working. As the molten glass started to sip through her skin, it started as spots here and there but soon developed into an inch thick armor. It was harder to move now that her upper body was covered in glass, but it did not stop the girl from forming a hand seal to break the glass.

Sweet! I am almost done with this jutsu.

The young girl rose from the ground and started to form the same seal for the last time, but this time the young girl focused on chakra on her entire body. She could feel the heat over her body and knew that this was working and unlike last time the glass production was much faster, covering her entire body. It was really hard to move around with the glass all over her body but she still formed the hand seal needed to break the glass of her body. As the glass fell to the ground, the young girl wiped her forehand, she was sweaty. Must have been all the chakra consuming the this jutsu had used.

Done.

*Chakra Gloves

When real latex gloves are not on hand, the Chakra Gloves technique comes in quite handy. After forming a single handseal, the user will focus chakra into his/her hands to form a thin layer of chakra around them. This chakra will help to protect other objects against the bacteria on the user's hands if sterilization is not an option before beginning a procedure. This technique can be held as long as the user has chakra.

The Land of Bears

Early morning over the Land of Bears, the sun was bright in the cloudless day, the summer breeze was chill on their sweaty foreheads and the water was still in the fisher village.

Amaya woke up and moved towards the door. The light shine bright through the cracks of the house, she opened the door and walked out through the open door. She walked to a young boys cabin. In there she could see a small chair and a book, farther back was a bed with the same sick boy.

Alright Amaya it's time to learn a new Iijutsu..

It seems as if it was time for the young ninja to train her Iijutsu once more, she had already learned how to perform the thermometer jutsu now it was time to learn how to create artificial chakra gloves since it was badly to touch someone with unclean hands and it is also bad since the bacteria would spread to her hands as well. The girl sat down in front of the book and started to read the book, she turned pages until she could find descriptions on how to perform the chakra gloves jutsu.

The young girl leaned back and formed the hand seal needed to create the chakra gloves, then focused on sending the chakra to her hands. She could see that chakra formed around her hands as if they where chakra gloves, but they disappeared. It seems as if she could not hold it long enough at the moment, she would need to train up her control. She restarted the process and looked at her hands once again, it seems to be working better this time. Amaya pushed away from the chair and walked up to the boy and placed her hand on his sweaty head, she could sense that the chakra protected her hand from his sweat.

This is a strange feeling i get, it doesn't feel like when i touch him without this jutsu.

This means that it should be able to protect her from bacteria as well, she was pleased that she had learned a new Iijutsu. Her goal to become a medic seems to be working, slowly though.

Garaton • Hogasha no Megami [Glass Element • Guardian of the Goddess]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Garaton • Hada Dekidaka [Glass Element • Skin Production]
This is an improvement of the glass skin production. Amaya forms a few hand seals then ending with a clap, holding it for a second. Then Amaya forces out a large amount of molten glass from her skin, then it suddenly appears as a coating around her entire body. This coating increases in thickness in all directions, retaining the humanoid shape but increasing in size that from head to toe, its two feet taller than she and a foot wider. Its one inch of hot see through molten glass, the most visual part of the armor is shaped into eight rib bones. Four on each side, each one as big as one of Amayas limbs. The armor will easily defended against projectiles and jutsu that are weaker than strength of seven. If it were to make physical contact with a person or material, it would stick to the material and cause second degree burns. The armor follows Amaya's movement but it uses a lot of chakra so this jutsu auto cancels after five posts.

The Land of Bears

The sun raised at the land of the bears, it had rained the other day so the weather was hot and moist. The forest seemed quieter this day, the wind was non existing, the clouds covered most of the sky and it looked like it was probably going to rain later this day. It was the same area that the ninja had trained on before which consisted of two trees in the center of a hundred diameters grassland, while the outside this diameter is covered in woods. There is a large river that runs from the northern part of the woods to the south, there are small pebble sticking out on the side of the river and some small rocks.

The river runs between the two trees. Next to one tree was Amaya, she was sitting down in front of it with her legs crossed and her eyes closed. She opened her eyes and saw that the tree in front of her had some cuts and gashes from the multiple times she had been here, this place was growing on her since it is usually here the young ninja trains.

It felt well for the glass ninja since it would not be to hot for her, so she could be outside all day without the fear of sunburns. She took out a scroll from her pouch and then started to write down her thoughts.

'The goddess and her personal guardian; this jutsu will be perfect. By sacrificing a lot of chakra on expanding the glass skin outward I would be able to make it protect me from further damages, even burning my enemies. Then i should focus on moving the armor with me so that it is with me always, i could probably do even more with it but i do not think that i would have enough chakra to move external limbs'

The young girl sighed.

Now that i have written out the basis of the jutsu i should be able to start training for it, but this will surely take up most of my chakra. Meaning that i wont be able to complete this in one night, but thankfully I have packed down food. Plus this new cloak is comfortable, it should work as a quilt if i would need to sleep here. I hope that i do not have to.

It was time for her to start her jutsu training, she closed the scroll then placed it inside her pouch then proceeded to focus for a while. She needed to prepare mentally first on this taxing ninjutsu or else the adolescent could pass out if she uses too much chakra at once, the young ninja rose of the ground and then started to perform the set of hand seals. Slowly to memorize them, but luckily the young girl had an extraordinary mind. She ended the series of hand seals with a clap that could be heard all the way to the village, she held it for a second then focused on sending a large amount of molten from her skin outwards. But all it did was mass produce molten glass all over her skin, it even started to drip from her. Down on the grass underneath her, the girl let go of the hand seal and then started to stumble backwards a bit. Feeling dizzy, but this did not discourage her, instead the young girl tried to get the molten glass off her before it could harden. So that it would not be in the way the next time she would perform the ninjutsu once more, she was certain that she would be able to perform it.

Ugh.. This jutsu, needs even more chakra and better control. Focus Amaya so that you do not pass out here

The young girl shook her head as she was now prepared to restart the process, the girl closed her eyes and formed the seal. Clapped and held it for five seconds before trying to focusing on expanding molten glass once again, this time the young girl exerted. She could feel how the molten glass forced its way out of her clothes and started to shape around her. Circling in the bottom and starting to build upwards towards the girls leg height, but before it could completely finish its shape. The young girl fell backwards, nearly hitting the ground before she suddenly protected her head. It seems as if she had passed out from chakra exhaustion, this was bad. She had already used up her chakra, she was laying there sweaty. All alone in the clearing with hot molten glass next to her, she took of her cloak and used it as a blanket. It did not take long for her to fall asleep, Amaya rose up from the ground and then rubbed her eyes. It seems as if she had slept the entire day because all she could see was darkness, she looked up and saw millions of stars but no moon. She shook her head and then proceeded to put on the cloak again, It seems as if it did not rain while she was asleep.

Okay Amaya eat something then proceed with the jutsu once more.

The young girl reached in her pouch and ate two rice balls and drank some water, it was not much but she did not really feel hungry at the moment. Instead all she could feel was the need to finish this technique, The young girl repeated the process. Held the clap for three seconds then focusing on expanding the molten glass, this time the molten produced in a faster rate. Forcing out of her body and then forming around her, this time it shaped into what she had desired. The armor was two feet taller and one foot wider, four ribs grew from the back on each side. Each as big as one of her limbs, it was eerie standing inside this giant armor. She could feel it drain her chakra but to her it was okay, she started to walk towards the tree. Amaya was checking if the armor would follow her movements and it seems as if it was.

Wow it actually worked, now i have to try if i can feel any pain! Shame that i cannot really try it on someone

The young ninja leaned forward then started to run towards the tree in front of her, then climbed it. She jumped of it and landed on her back, she could still feel the impact but not the pain she would feel if she had landed on the rock without armor on.

Tsck! ...Now i know that it works.. But it's not stopping me from feeling pain if i land hard! At least i know that

Amaya laid there laughing, even though it hurt now she had another ace up her sleeve. Then proceeded to grab the rock behind her head, performed a roll to get back on her feet. She shrugged then looked at the tree once again, dashing towards it. The girl jumped and then tackled it.

Thunk!

The tree shook as the girl and her armor hit it, the molten glass started to burn on the trees barks. She could feel the pain of hitting the tree but not as much as it should without it, she started to enjoy this. The idea that she could now have a defense against her ultimate weakness, Taijutsu. Now if any Taijutsu user would stupidly rush against her then they would seriously regret it, but it was not time to think about that now since the girl started to feel a bit woozy from using the jutsu for so long. She shook her head then placed her hand on it.

This is really eating up my chakra, i could use this but i would need to think smart and also try to focus on not using this too many times since I am sure that it would lead to my ultimate death. Hah to die by my own jutsu.. No way!

The armor canceled without her canceling it, at first the young ninja was shocked but then smiled. At least now she knew that this jutsu had a time limit as well.

Because you can smell it.
D-Rank Ninjutsu
Amaya forms a set of hand seals, then focuses chakra on to her nose. This will grant her the ability to pick up smells where she could not before, this works well for both hunting and for times when the ninjas eye sight is blocked. This jutsu allows her to be able to pinpoint smells that are not older than four posts up to fifty yards, this jutsu holds for as long as the ninja has chakra but if this jutsu is canceled this jutsu would need two posts cool down.

The Land of Bears


It was evening at the land of bears, it was a quiet day, people where busy attending their business so they did not notice the young girl strolling past them. Today was another training day for the young ninja, she wanted to train her nose to be able to track people. Amaya had encountered a ninja that could change the weather, making her blind. She did not like this at all, so it was time to train her scent. She walked to her favorite training spot, deep in the forest. There was a small opening, it was pretty much undistrubed. She walked to the middle and sat down, concentrating. Her legs crossed and her arms resting on her knees. She rose up and walked fifty meters in front of her then dropped the candy bar, she smelled it first then walked back to the same spot.

All right remember the scent Amaya

The young girl closed her eyes, then started to perform a set of hand seals. She focused chakra on her nose, at first this did not seem to work but as she inhaled. The young girl could feel the smell of her perfume being stronger than before, but she could not pick up the scent of the candy in front of her.

Well at least i know that this jutsu is working! Its no good, I dont need this jutsu to smell myself

The young girl chuckled, then focused some more chakra on her nose. She closed her eyes and tried to smell things that where further away from her, she could smell the barks from the trees. It felt weird because the ninja was not used to able to smell so much, she moved her hands in front of her and formed a seal. Concentrating more chakra to her nose, she could now pick up even more scents.

What is that sweet smell among the retched, It must be the candy? Focus Amaya pick up the scent

Amaya opened her eyes and took a deep wif, she could sense the smell of the candy. She rose up and started circiling the candy, trying to pin point the location. It was working, the scent changed directions. She moved closer and could feel the smell grow stronger, using this as a way to measure how far away the candy was. It was good because if she had to use this in a real situation she could probably calculate her enemies possition. She ran towards the candy as she started to feel hungry from the smell, the young girl grabbed the candy bar and started to eat it. It was super tasty but she made sure to cancel the jutsu because other smells where getting in the way, she could feel a slight pain in the nose but it was worth it.

Wow, this is great! I should try smelling down something else, something new.

The girl formed the same hand seals and then focused chakra once again on her nose, she picked up a weird scent, it was northeast of her possition. Probably thirty meters away from her, she raced towards it. She jumped up on a tree and then spotted where the weird smell came from, to her suprise it was a bunch of bird droppings. The closer she got the more disgusting it got, but at least now she knew what it was.

*Flat Path
D-Rank Nintaijutsu
Prerequisite: Rotation Shot
After performing the needed handseals, the user invests a small amount of chakra into a projectile before release. The chakra adds power to the shot, causing it to strike with +1 Strength worth of force at normal range, or to strike for normal damage at up to 1.5 times its normal maximum range.

The Land of Bears

Now that the young girl had learned how to perform the rotation shot it was time for her to train a ninjutsu version of this in order for it to work with her chakram, she was at cabin. Looking at a target in the backyard, it was a sunny day, the wind was still so it would be a great day for her to start her training. She looked at the scroll that she got from Sagaki, it seems as if he had gotten hold of a scroll from his father and was not willing to share it at first but then chose to show it to her after she showed him some of her glass abilities. Flat path.

The young ninja started to form the hand seals needed to create the chakram, she opened the pouch with her right hand while the left one rose above her head. The glass rotated around the left hand, heating up and then in almost an instant the chakram had formed into a perfect circle. She hesitated on throwing it at the target since she was afraid that it would most likely cut through and in to the house, so she opted to turn around and started aiming at a tree. She stopped the rotation of the chakram and then grabbed a hold of it. She was now ready to start the jutsu training, she read the scroll then started to form the hand seal, adding more chakra to the chakram before making it rotate above her hand again.

The young girl took a hard look at the tree then launched it, it dug deep into the tree but this was nothing unusual, it seems as if she had failed in her attempt to make it hit harder. She repeated the circle, then once again stopped the new chakram from rotating to form a set of hand seals to add more chakra to the weapon, she made sure that she added a lot more chakra than before. Amaya rotated the chakram once again, looked at the tree and then launched it once again. But to her disappointment the chakram lodged as deep as the other one did, she sighed.

Amaya once again repeated the steps as before, forming hand seals to create the chakram, still using the same glass from her middle pouch. It started to run thin and this would mean that she would soon have to create some more glass if she would fail again which was pretty likely, the young girl stopped the rotation and held the chakram in her hand. Stopped for a while then read the scroll once again, making sure to get the full instruction, she formed the seals slowly and then closed her eyes. She focused on placing enough chakra to the weapon, not too much and not to little. Amaya opened her eyes when she thought that the time was right, lifter her left arm above her head and made it rotate once again. She let it spin for a while.

Come on, Amaya. Here goes nothing.

She said as she swung her hand forwards, launching the weapon towards the tree. The weapon flew at top speed, cutting through the tree and then lodging onto the tree behind, the tree in front of it slowly started to slide of where it had been cut in the middle, she moved to make sure that it would not fall on her. She was amazed at the power the chakram had with that extra jutsu, and this was without the explosive properties she had in store for this weapon but that is for another time.


She huffed and puffed, walked up to the now had broken in half tree. Picked up both of her old chakrams and tried to do the same with those, forming the hand seals needed, the young girl placed the same amount of chakra on it as the last one and then spun it. Launched it then quickly rotated the other one and launched it as well. Two more trees fell apart as they cut through them, it seems as if the young ninja had now mastered that technique and it was not just luck.

The Land of Bears

A hot day in the land of bear, with barely any clouds, so it would not rain today, it was around 1am. Today was a splendid day, the Tivoli had arrived in the village in the Land of bears. There were all sorts of people coming to watch them, Amaya had met Sayuri and she said that she wanted to look around and see if she could find anything interesting while Amaya stopped at the archery and long range section, there seemed to be a lot of skilled people at throwing darts and other varies of long ranged weapons. Amaya was amused because she had recently started training her long range as well, she was watching a young man particularly, he was not from this village but he had some skills. He was around the age of fifteen, blue eyes, black buzz cut hair. He wore a white tee shirt with a brown vest over it, then black pants and regular sandals. He had a holster with ten knives on them.

Interesting, he seems to be a lot better than the others in his league.. Not only does he hit his targets better but he seems to be hitting the target harder as well.

She noticed that he threw his knifes with a certain spiral, making it hit the target harder than the others. She watched him until the event was over then walked up to him and made her move.

"Young man, what is your name?"

The young boy turned and looked at the mysterious ninja, he glanced at her head band which was crossed then at her eyes. He first hesitated to answer her, then manned up and said proudly.

"My name is Keitun, Sagaki; The legendary long ranger, i have traveled over most of the large villages and faced many in long range challenges and have won most of them! I am the best in my division."

The girl was amused to hear it, she noticed that he started to back away from her, whether it was to attack her or that he was afraid of her. The ninjas where something to fear after all, but she smiled to look less threatening.

"I noticed that you where exceptional in aiming and i wanted to ask you if you could teach me some of your skills"

The young said, puppy eyeing him. He scratched the back of his head and laughed a little then nodded as a yes. Amaya thought that it might have been that when she showed him the puppy eyes that he thought that Amaya was less threatening. They moved to a better location to start their training, it was the backyard of Amaya's cabin. They set up a target then he proceeded to tell her about how he threw the knifes harder than the others.

"Well the thing about my technique is that i add more rotation to my throws than the rest, that way it hits harder as it hit the target."

He grabbed a knife out of his holster then threw it at the target in front of him, making the knife rotate. It hit the target hard, the young girl nodded and then grabbed a knife as well with her left hand, she knew that she was not that strong. She usually used a jutsu to throw kunais but this time she wanted to use her own strength, she threw the knife with all her might and it bounced of the target, it barely even hit the target which was less than five meters in front of her. Amaya sighed as she was disappointed of her strength, Sagaki held his hand in front of his mouth to hold himself from laughing out loud. If he ever thought that she was dangerous he would now doubted it, well at least he had no clue that she preferred ninjutsu over taijutsu. He cleared his throat after laughing a little.

Well.. hehe... Ahem you should keep practicing, i will be at the Tivoli, i will return and tell you what you are doing right and what you are doing wrong okay?"

Amaya nodded then went back to her training, she picked up the knife and continued to throw the knife at the target. Sagaki returned four hours later, he saw that the young girl was sweating but at least her knife trowing skills had raised a bit, she could now hit the target and make the knife stick, but it was not perfected yet. She had learned how to make it rotate but could make it hit harder, he walked up to her and grabbed her wrist gently.

"Now look at the movement, gently twist your wrist as you throw the knife. Like this "

He maneuvered her arm back and forth, twisting her wrist for her, showing her how to trow it. He let go of her wrist then backed up a bit then proceeded to nod at her as a go ahead gesture, she pulled her arm back then threw the knife with twisting her wrist a little as she let it go, it seemed to be working as the knife dug deeper into the target.

*Sighting
D-Rank Taijutsu
Prerequisite: Wit 4
After many hours of training with ranged weaponry, the user is much better able to estimate distances and track moving targets in hectic situations. Such assessments become completely instinctive, allowing the user to change targets seemlessly without losing time between attacks. This technique forms the basis for many of the other techniques in this style.

The Land of Bears

Today was the day the young girl would start her taijutsu training, she knew that she was utterly hopeless in close quarter combat so she figured that she should start training her long range attacks, she had heard of a style called flawless aiming and knew that this would fit her style. Luckily for her this day would be the perfect day to do such training, there where no wind and it was not to warm either. It was the perfect.

Flawless aiming.. That sounds good, my chakram, senbons and my kunai could use some target practicing! This will be splendid!

The girl was standing in an empty midow, there where nothing except for her in the middle. This was good, there would not be anyone to stop her from finishing training until she went back home. The young girl sat down and started to focus, she was meditating, closing her eyes. This had become a new thing for Amaya, to meditate before every jutsu training. She sat there for a while then rose up, it was time for her to train.

Okay, to train my aiming skills i would need something to aim at.. What could use as a target? Maybe i should create a glass target, no it would be better if i had something that was moving to get me used to the idea that my opponent is always on the move, well i should create a bunshin. Maybe two so i can change in between them because i need to be able to switch back and forth fast.

Amaya formed a set of hand seals then two large smoke explosions appeared next to her, after the smoke dissipated two clones of the ninja stood there, they nodded and then ran away from the young girl. She quickly looked at the left one then at the right one, choosing which one to attack, calculating their speed and how far they are running away from them. She formed a set of hand seals then spat out two senbons at the left one, she quickly looked to the right and spat out two more senbons. Both hit their targets but the right one had run away further than she had expected.

That did not go exactly like i expected but its okay, at least i hit them both. I should try making them rush against me from two different directions.

The girl formed the bunshin seal once again and this time waited for them to walk away from her, both standing twenty feet away from each other and ten meters away from Amaya. They nodded at each other then at Amaya, she knew that these bunshins would not be able to fight but this did not matter, it was only about being able to switch targets in a hectic situation. Because if it was a real life and death situations then she would need to be able to keep an eye on both, with or without the open mind jutsu.

Last time i barely hit the bunshins, You need to calculate in a faster way Amaya, a better way. Come on genius you can do this, this is nothing! Remember your Academy days.

The bunshins started dashing at their respective directions round to run in a perfect C like direction towards Amaya, forcing her to turn her back on one of them. The young girl opened her middle pouch then formed the hand seal to create the Chakram, she rose her hand above her head, the glass from the pouch moved quickly towards the hand. The glass spun and re molted then quickly shaped into a chakram, but before launching it, the young girl looked at both of her moving targets.

Left or right Amaya, better chose fast!

She predicted the position the right one would be in if she launched it, so she did and then quickly turned to the left one, forming the hand seal needed to spit out glass senbons again as she turned. She spat out four senbons where she had predicted the bunshin would be, Amaya could hear that the chakram hit the bunshin behind her while she could see that she had predicted the right position the bunshin would be in. Killing both bunshins, the young ninja smiled, then nodded to her self.

Good! This will certainly work out in a hectic situation, man if only Sayuri could see me now! Brother beware because i am coming for you.

The young girl then turned around and started to walk back to her cabin, she was content for now.

-:-Garaton • Rasuto Joukei Bunshin[Glass Element • Last Sight Clone]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Amaya forms a set of handseals then proceeds to either spew out a high amount of molten glass or releasing it from her body, this molten glass quickly forms into a clone of her with explosive properties. The bunshin will fight until it is damaged which will then explode, sending a high amount of glass shards everywhere. The bunshin contains the amount kilos as Amaya weighs in glass and has an explosive properties equal to five explosive notes. Amaya can also form a single hand seal which will also make it explode. 4 Strength, 3 Speed, 1 Stamina, 4 Taijutsu.

The Land of Bears


Amaya sat down in a small clearing in the forest, it was evening but quiet. The animals seemed to be minding their own business so for now she was alone. The amount of ruckus the young woman will create will most likely draw a lot of attention but she did not mind it, it was not like the villagers could do anything about it and honestly it did not seem as if they minded having ninjas in their village. They seemed to be helping them out a lot.

Now that i have learned the guardian of the goddess jutsu i should start working on a new one to complement it, I need someone to back me up. A bunshin that creates a huge explosion, big enough to kill nearly anyone.. I like that, that way not only does it damage them it would also send out a high amount of glass for me to play with afterwards if there would be any survivors left.

She sat with her legs crossed and her arms resting on her knees, she moved her left arm to her right arm and rolled her sleeve up to the elbow then proceed to roll up the other sleeve as well. She formed a set of hand seals and then sat down and focused chakra to her mouth.

Now think, recall how you create a bunshin Amaya..

The girl rose up, her mouth filled with molten glass she then proceeded to spit out a lot of molten glass. The molten glass did not form to the bunshin instead it just laid there, she was disappointed because with this amount of molten glass the ninja could have used it for something better than just being a pile of nothing. She backed up a little bit then repeated the first step, this time the young girl placed more chakra into her mouth. Shaping it into a clone in her minds eye, then proceeded to spit out the same amount of molten glass as before. This time the glass started to take shape, it was almost humanoid before it collapsed into another pile of goo. The girl started to wobble backwards until she hit a tree.

Damn it! I am using too much of my chakra but at least i know that it is working.. Or it is shaping up

She started to slide down until she sat down, she moved her right arm to wipe of the sweat from her forehead. Amaya opened her left pouch and took out some food then started to eat, after she ate the young girl sat down and recovered, it was good since this replenished her chakra. Well at least a little, she breathed in then let out a sigh. It was time again to start training, the young girl pushed up against the tree then rose up, she quickly formed the needed hand seals then once again shaped the bunshin in her minds eye. She did not give it explosive properties yet because now she could not even make the mold shape into a human being, Amaya spat out the molten glass on the grass in front of her.

Come on, shape into a clone!

The molten glass started to shape up, it took awhile but in the end a humanoid started to rise out of the glass. Rising up slowly and shaping into a clone of Amaya, the clone stood straight then looked at her.

Sweet! And kind of creepy.

The young girl nodded at the clone then did her best to perform a round house kick, the clone easily defended against it. Grabbing hold of her leg, she looked confused at first then smirked.

"So you want to fight me huh? Well let me tell you this sister, you are going down."

Amaya was shocked at her Taijutsu abilities, they seemed to be much better than hers, the clone quickly defended herself and kicked the real version of Amaya. The glass ninja flew a meter before hitting a tree, it hurt like hell but now she knew that the bunshin was also much stronger than she. Luckily for her she had formed a set of hand seals, that lets her skin create molten glass therefor protect her against the impact.

Ouch, If i did not perform the skin production jutsu i would probably had fainted. I need to be more careful around the clones.

The clone smiled as she lowered her leg, she started to dash towards Amaya before poofing into thin air, the glass that had created her fell on the grass underneath her. Some of it flew towards Amaya as well but luckily for her the glass could not cut her, she had destroyed the bunshin with a hand seal, stopping it from assaulting her. She rose up slowly then broke of the glass from her skin, it was good, at least now she could form a bunshin. But as she stood up, the young ninja realized that she had used up too much chakra. She wobbled home to her cabin to get some rest.

It's a new day and it is time to finish the jutsu!

The young ninja had checked the map and had found a new spot to play in, it was a huge waterfalls near the forest, she was at the bottom of the waterfall. Amaya sat on the water with her legs crossed and her hands resting on the knees, she was meditating before opening her eyes. It was time to finish it, she rose up slowly then formed the needed set of hand seals, then once again spat out the molten glass, making sure that the glass landed on the ground next to the water because she was not certain if it could walk on water. But the difference between this time and the last time she created the bunshin was that she gave the molten glass explosive properties, Amaya knew that it would be a big explosion so she prepared to defend herself this time.

If I cannot fight it in close quarter combat without explosives then there is no point in even trying when it can explode, thankfully the guardian of the goddess jutsu will be enough to protect me from it, at least i hope so. I should probably try it out first and see how big of explosion it will make.

The clone started to shape faster than before, it seems as if she was getting a hang of this. When the bunshin had shaped it looked at its master, nodded then dove into the water, swam to the middle then Amaya set of the bunshin.

Booom!

The explosion startled the young girl, it was huge, she estimated that it was as big as five explosive notes. The wind from the explosion knocked Amaya back a little, not to mention that a lot of glass shards hit her. Thankfully it still could not cut her but it doesn't mean that it did not hurt, at first this frightened her but then she started to smile because this was not sent out to hurt her, it was going to her those who wanted to hurt the young ninja. She formed the same set of hand seals then spat out another explosive clone, the clone shaped up even faster, turned and looked at her master. Amaya nodded at the clone, then formed another set of hand seals. The girl clapped her hands together to end the set of seals, then forced a lot of molten glass out of her skin, this quickly shaped into her Guardian of the Goddess armor. She nodded at the bunshin to attack her, she wanted to test if the armor would hold up against her explosion.

Kabooom!

The explosion knocked Amaya really far, she rolled and slid across the river, finishing in a roll that landed her in a kneeling position. She had one eye closed and the other focusing on the huge dust on the other side of the river, which was what was left from the huge explosion. She breathed hard, she started to sweat as well, she then looked at the armor, it seems to be a huge hole in it from the explosion but started to close up as it ate her chakra.

Shit, it is strong enough make a huge hole in it. At least now i know that if i stand to close to it i would probably die if i do not use this armor.

She formed another set of hand seals, canceling the armor, then moved away from the molten glass. She fell down on the grass next to the water, passing out from chakra consumption. This is good, at least now she knew how strong the explosion was.

Dusk, the sun was rising around the Land of Bears. It was time for the adolescent to start her guard duty, she did not want to waste any unnecessary jutsu so instead of sending out her lenses the young ninja chose to walk around. Plus it was a fine day, it had not rained in a couple of days and the sun was not that hot either.

She had reached for the pouch where her pet mouse had been in, she crouched down and let the mouse run free. It had been a long time since she last it runs around since she had always been scared that a bird would eat it. Amaya was now walking in a narrow path leading away from the village but would later lead her to a cross road, one road lead back to the village while the other one leads to another village. It would take her about a day to walk to the other village on foot, but luckily for her she was just out on patrol. The dense woods where pretty freaky because you never knew if there was someone deep inside the forest, last time she had walked alone in the woods a couple of wolves attacked her. She barely survived the attack but she now knew that her skills where good enough for her to manage a couple of wolves.

She took of her hood so that she could feel the cool wind, the young girl looked around. Checking both sides and upwards to see if there where any birds in the area, just because she had the guts to let the mouse free does it not mean that she was going to be careless. The ninja had now almost reached the cross road, the young girl was in a good mood. She was happy that she had met a ninja that she could work with because being alone for so long had started to take toll on the young ninjas mind, and she could not only talk to the pet mouse that she had found back in Iwa.

Once she reached the crossroad the young girl stopped and looked to the path leading to the other village for a while, it was a straight path. A straight empty path, then she looked at the path leading to the other side of the village which was her path. She nodded at her mouse then continued down her path, after a hour the young girl stopped to take a sip of water. While she was focusing on quench her thirst the mouse ran of. She looked at it and stopped drinking her water, she chased after it.

"Kabocha where are you going! Come back!"

The adolescent was desperate, she ran into the woods, chasing a small white mouse. She rounded a large tree and could now see a man with his back turned towards her. He was wearing a black tee shirt and black shorts, he had short fizzy hair. His neck looked pale and wore black gloves. He turned around when he heard her shout out the mouse name, he was holding the mouse in his hand. Her heart pounded as she did not know what this man was doing with her pet mouse in his hand, she tried to calm down but could not. She could now see that he was wearing a Konoha forehead protector but it was slashed just as hers. He had blue eyes just like her and an evil grin. The amount of stress tensed the young girls body, while he looked at her then at the mouse.

Why is he smiling.

The young girl raised her hands slowly as she tried to show that she was not going to attack him, she looked him in the eyes and slowly moved closer.

"Ehm, excuse me but could you please let go of my mouse. I do not feel comfortable with you holding it."

The young man looked at his hand then back at her, he then threw the mouse towards a tree then rushed against her. The young girl looked at where the mouse landed before focusing on the ninja that rushed towards her. He punched her in the face then proceeded to punch her on the stomach before she even had time to react. Why was this happening, she had never seen him before. What kind of grudge could this ninja have with her?

He then grabbed her throat, pushing her against the tree that she recently rounded. He seemed to be strong as he could lift her up with one arm, he was choking her. It took awhile for Amaya to snap out of it, she knew that it was do or die at this point. She formed a set of hand seals and then proceeded to spit glass senbons, aiming at his neck. The glass senbons pierced it but not deep enough to kill him, but deep enough for him to grab his neck in pain, dropping her. She grasped for air, then ran towards the mouse. But before she could reach the mouse the Konoha ninja grabbed her leg, she fell down. Hitting the grass, he was really out to kill her. He started to curse then used his strength to lift her up, Amaya hung upside down now but used her other leg to kick him in the face. The kick was not that strong as he took it then proceeded to throw her against a tree. She hit it hard, the hit was so hard that Amaya started to lose consciousness.

Crap, this is not good. Kabocha please hold out

She tried to stand up, using the last of her force to push away from the tree but the man walked up to her. He stopped in front of her and laughed then proceeded to punch her in the face, knocking her out. The man grabbed her leg and then dragged her away.

Chapter 7: Out of Bound
Part:2

4 years ago "Hey Amaya wake up!."

The young girl woke up, it seems as if she had fallen asleep in her backyard. She looked at her skin and could see that she had burnt most of her skin, it hurt a lot. This was the curse of the Shoshiki, the young girl started to cry. But her stepbrother Dai pointed at her and laughed at her pain, while her friend Sakuran ran into her home to get some cream for her.

The young girl cried for until her friend returned and started to put the cream on her, it felt well on her skin but she was still feeling the pain. It was not enough for Dai that she was in pain he had to bully her as well, he walked up to her and then slapped her back.

"Hey! No time for you to be here crying, go inside and clean the house!."

He grabbed her shirt and almost threw her inside, the girl had no real opinion in her household so she did what he told her. While her friend was mad and scolded Dai, until he turned around and gave her a mean stare.The young girl complied, she cleaned the house. Using up all her spare time on cleaning instead of having fun and being out with her friend. By the time her stepmother returned it was time for her to do her homework and to make matters worse Dai told her that it was he who cleaned the house. She hated Dai, she really did.

Nightfall in the forest around the Land of Bears, the weather was chili and the wind was cold. In front of Amaya was a small fire to heat up her and the mysterious Konoha ninja. Her hands and legs where tied otherwise everything was at the ordinary. He was cooking fish for himself, focusing on not burning the meat.

Amaya's consciousness was returning, she slowly opened her eyes and looked around. Her hands where tied above her head so she would have a hard time escaping from it, luckily for her, her pet mouse had survived being thrown into the tree and had made its way inside her pouch whiles she was being dragged. The adolescent was confused but before she could figure out a way to escape the young man spoke to her.

"So. . . You have finally woken up. You might wonder what and why i have kidnapped you? Well the truth is that you have a bounty on your head."

This shocked Amaya because she was expecting that Iwa ninjas would be after her, not Konoha missing nins. He was more focused on the fish than she but he would answer the question on why there where a bounty on her head before she asked.

"You are unfinished business, that was what my master told me. You might know him, he only refers himself by his first name. Dai"

Her eyes widened, could it be the same man that killed her family. Could it be that son of a bitch Dai. She bit her bottom lip in anger, but before she could speak. The young girl could feel something move inside her pouch, it was Kabocha. The mouse made its way out of the pouch and started climbing on her back towards her arms.

"Funny thing is that i have been spying on you for weeks, you are lucky that he wants you alive otherwise i would have killed you a long time ago. "

While the mouse was not trying to bite of the ropes from her hands the young ninja grabbed his throat, he could feel where the senbons had pierced his skin and it seems that it was still hurting.

" You know, that was not a bad hit. Luckily i have a tough skin. Otherwise you would probably have killed me there."

The ropes where now chewed up, the young girl did not waste any time. She formed the hadn seals needed to create her chakram, she raised her left hand above the head while her right one opened the middle pouch. Allowing her use that glass, it instantly moved from the pouch to her hand. Spinning and melting together into one chakram, by the time the ninja looked away from the fish the chakram was already complete.

" Next time do not look away you son of a bitch!"

She launched the chakram towards his upper body, he had no time to react as the chakram split him in half. The chakram continued and hit the tree behind him, blood splattered everywhere and his guts hung out from the his belly. His eyes where wide open but lifeless and his skin was going paler as the blood was leaving the body by the seconds. This instantly killed him, she sighed in relief. The mouse ran to her legs, she bent down and grabbed it. But before she could place it in the pouch she paused because she could hear someone clap.

"'Well done, Well done indeed"

The voice came from the shadows, but who could it be? The voice was familiar.

"Don't you remember your own brothers voice? Amaya. . . I am offended"

[Glass Element • Glass Cutter]
E-Ranked Ninjutsu
After forming a one handed hand seal and dragging her finger across a 1" thick or thinner piece of glass, the user is able to cut that glass at a rate of six feet per post.

The Land of Bears


Early morning in the Land of Bears; the sun was rising and the frost was melting of the tree tops, down on the ground was a young girl ready to start her morning training. She had recently learned a way to set up an armor but had yet to learn how she was going to attack from the inside.

She sat down in the middle of a forest, with her eyes closed. She thought about different was she could achieve her goal, one way was to shoot out senbons through the glass and the other way was to cut out a hole in the armor. She thought that cutting holes was more affective since she could use this to cut holes in other glass as well, giving her the ability to sneak in and out of houses in an easier way.

The young girl formed a set of hand seals, Amaya spat out molten glass, then quickly forming it into a chest high wall. Perfect, the young girl thought as she formed the one handed hand seal, she placed her index finger on the glass, she dragged it and was pleased with the results. She dragged it in a perfect circle then gently pushed the circle inwards, it fell and broke as it landed on the other side of the wall. The young girl smiled and then rose of the ground.

The young girl was not finished yet though, she wanted to test it out on her armor. She quickly formed a long set of hand seals then clapped her hands, she interlocked her fingers and then focused chakra over her entire body. She sent out a huge amount of glass out of her body, this molten glass quickly shaped into her goddess armor, with four huge rubs covering her and a lot of glass in between the ribs.

She wanted to know if she could cut a small hole in the armor for her to either escape from the inside while her enemies can't see or make small holes for her to attack her enemies. She formed the one handed handseal then tried to cut out a small hole on the side of it, she dragged her index finger accros the armor and could clearly see that she managed to cut through it. Amaya then cut a small hole in front of her so that she could send out a lens, with this the young ninja could be inside and still send out her lenses or shoot out senbons. What she could do with this jutsu was now up to the young girls mind.

[Glass Element • Colored Glass]
E-Ranked Ninjutsu
After forming a one handed hand seal and touching a piece of glass, the user will change the color of that glass to a single, solid color. This does not prevent glass from being seen through, or mirrors from being reflective, it simply changes the color of them. This cannot be used to make glass invisible.

The Land of Bears


Evening in the Land of Bears; The sun was high up in the sky, it was a warm day today, there were not a single cloud in the sky. It was prime time for the young ninja to train her glass abilities, this time the young ninja wanted to change the color of her glass.

She sat down in the middle of a forest, this would be the perfect place for her to start her training. She formed a set of hand seals then spat out high amount of molten glass, she quickly formed it into a chest high wall. Amaya then leaned back a little, arched her left eyebrow then thought of which color she wanted to change the glass into.

Blue, The young girl formed the one handed hand seal needed to change the color of the glass then placed her index finger onto the glass. It quickly changed into a blue hue, it was still see through but it was colored instead of being clear. She smiled and then formed the same hand seal again, she touched the glass and it changed color from blue to green. This pretty unnecessary but she just wanted to know how many colors she could change glass into, so she did it again and changed it to purple, then after that to yellow.

She was pleased with that result so she picked herself up and started walking back to the village, along the way the young ninja formed the hand seal and then poked different glasses. Changing their colors to mess with people, she even changed colors on peoples glasses but only when they requested her to do it. It was funny for her to see kids running around with different colored glasses, one glass being blue while the other being pink. The kids enjoyed it but their parents did not, so she had to fix the glasses for them.

Some people even walked up to the shoshiki and asked her to change colors of their belongings since they wanted to have some new spark in their homes. She complied because she loved helping out the villagers since they where nice enough to let her stay. She was pleased with the results and wanted to show her team mate this new ability, well at least she hoped that her friend would be interested. Only time would tell, hell this jutsu was pretty useless unless this could lead to something bigger. Who knows.

The Land of Bears
Chapter 8: Light vs Dark!
From the shadows of hell, from the shadows that the young girl thought she would never see. It was the man, the devil, the step brother. . . Dai!

Her eyes furiously watched him move through the shadows and closer to the light, the light that was standing behind him. Almost as if this was a representation, Iwagakure was the light that shined both of these ninjas skills but they where both steps away from the source, one being far away into the dept of hell while the other being one skip away. Her body froze for a second then the young woman straightened her back, looking more confident.

"You. . You son of a bitch! Why did you kill your own family and mine?"

The girl needed an answer, she needed some closure otherwise this would torment her for the rest of her life. But she was also going to be sure to take his life as well, she was confident that her skills where good enough to take this [SOB] down. Time seemed to slow down, as if they where standing on the same spot for hours but it was mere seconds that had passed. He moved closer, while she took a step back. Her heart was rushing, because she felt like it was do or die time.

"Well. . It is rather simple actually. . I was bored and pissed off that i was stuck in some underground pit. . Hell weren't you? Look i had a piece of shit mother that forced me to do shit for her which i did not like and your piece of shit father married her, what better way to get rid of a witch then to burn her and what better way to escape a douche than to cut of his head?"

The robed man said and started to laugh a little, this infuriuated the young girl to the point where she ran up to him and tried to punch him. Dai easily grabbed her arm and then punched her in the stomach then proceed to round house kick her into a tree. The already wounded ninja started to bleed some more from the back of her head.

"Listen Amaya, this might be hard to understand but. Six months after your mother died i met this wonderful woman who have been seeing, we really hit it of and then i proposed to her. . She said yes and now for the first time in one and a half year you get to meet her. . Please do not be upset and please try not to be mean towards her. . "

Those where the words of her father, the words before she ever laid eyes on her new "mother" her replacement mother. She could not, would not accept her! There where no way this young girl could replace her real mother but no matter how many times the young girl refused her and her home, her father would not listen. Leaving the young girl to spend most of her days in the backyard crying until one day.

"Hey Amaya, why do not you come inside? I mean it is not that bad is it?"

The young girl refused to turn towards her father, so she only showed him her back as he had done to her the past days, ignoring her cries and pleases

"No! I do not want to be here! I do not like her or this stupid stinky place! I want to go home! I want to go to [Nakari]! I want. . . I want my real mother!"

Her father took a deep breath, while listening to his daughters cries. He scratched the back of his head, trying to figure out a way to ease her. Then he figured it out, snapping his fingers.

"Have i told you that she has a son? He is only three years older than you but he is a good kid! Maybe you and he can play together?"

Those words stuck to the young girls mind, maybe there where someone else like her who did not like this relationship as much as she. Maybe she could befriend this new brother of hers, her head rose a bit, she wiped her tears with her bright blue kimono then turned around to face her father.

"Hmph. . Maybe? But only if he plays nice! Only if he is a good brother!"

Her father smiled and placed his left hand on top of her head.

"I am sure he is"

The young girl eyes pried open and all she could see is her step brother Dai holding throat, he lifted her up with one arm. She could clearly see a smile inside his darkness of his hood, it seems as if this was going to be her turn to die. The young girl closed her eyes as tears started to run down her pale cheeks, she was ready to die.

The Land of Bears
Chapter 9: Until next time

"Hey there little friend, i heard that you where my new "Sister" If you can say that"

Amaya turned around and could now clearly see who her new stepbrother was, Dai was his name and that name alone would stick to her head. They spent the first month together, almost inseparable but the truth was that Dai refused to let her tell the truth about their relationship. He had treated her like crap ever since they first introduced, he was mean and abusive. Every single chore had given to the boy was handed down to the young girl, there where never a real explanation to why he had done so other than that he felt like it.

"You can cry all you want but if a single word is said to our parents then this torture will triple! You get me!?"

That was what Dai kept threatening the young girl with, day in and day out. He made sure not to leave any marks on the young girls skin, mostly using a book to hit her with.

The young girls eyes snapped open as she remembered that she had promised herself that this son of a bitch would not survive as long as she lived, all her training was to take down Dai. She grabbed his arm and then kicked the man on the face, it was not a strong kick but enough to make him flinch then drop the girl. Or so it seems, Dai quickly returned the favor when he round house kicked the young girl in the head.

Which sent her flying into another tree, but he was not going to let her rest. He dashed towards the weak girl, jumping over her counter attack then grabbed her collar, to throw her away. As she flew, the young girl formed a set of hand seals which could dampen the landing. Although Dai had a plan of his own, he formed a set of hand seals then placed his left hand at his lips.

To him the fight was over, he inhaled then exhaled a huge fireball which hurled towards the young girl. She bounced of the ground then hit a tree, but she still held her hands together, interlocked. She could see the fireball coming at her. The fireball exploded, sending debris everywhere.

"Oh so you use Garaton huh? Glass users are so pathetic, they can barely handle themselves in hand to hand combat. . . Pathetic indeed"

Dai; the bully, the older brother. He spent his time messing with her head instead of acting out like an older brother, he was in the backyard training his jutsu instead of training his step sibling. Dai was a chuunin with fire affinity, even though the young girl hated him she was always amazed with his ability to perform fire jutsu. He had recently ranked up so he was in high spirit, this was the first time he had treated her nicely. He took her out for dinner.

"Listen, i know i have been a jerk towards you, but the truth is that i went through a lot of shit. That doesn't mean that all the things i have done have just disappeared, i mean the way i treated a four year old is bad. . . Hell i treated you wrong even up till now. . You are ten now right. . From now on i will treat you nice!"

That was the last lie the young man told her, to treat her nice.

"Huh. . You are not dead? Strange. . . So you have been training, good. You little shit! I hope you never forget what i told you. . ."

The smoke settled, Dai could now see Amaya stand in the middle of what looked like a glass armor, it was shaped as four giant glass ribs. The fire failed to kill her as he hoped, while on the other end Amaya was pissed beyond believe. She stood there ready to counter attack.

"I. Will. Kill. YOU!"

The young girl started dashing towards Dai as he just stood there laughing, laughing inside the darkness. The darkness, crept in her mind as he started dashing back. He kicked her armor, sending her back to the tree trunk, the armor hit first then the young girl hit the armor. It hurt but not as much as it would without the armor, she formed a set of hand seals then placed her hands on the armor as it sent out four senbon. Dai protected himself with four kunai, she then sent another senbon in the middle. It hit his shoulder when he continued to dash towards her, Dai the armor so hard that it cracked, sending him inside the armor. The armor fell apart, his powers seemed well beyond her comprehension.

How strong is Dai? The young girl thought as he laughed and grabbed her throat, he carried her to the edge of a cliff. He took one long look at her, she was now bleeding from the back of the head and her mouth. She had two fractured ribs, one hurt arm. He laughed one last time.

"Until next time? That is if you survive this fall."

Dai then let her fall down, down to the river.
