A Controlling Ride!

[WrightJustice]

Futegai was slowly walking down the street riding on top of his gorilla puppet, controlling its movements with his chakra strings which he was finding to be much more difficult than he anticipated; manoeuvring the puppet whilst sat on top of it was harder to perform than when stood away from it, not having all the movements in clear vision and with the chakra strings so tight making it so he had to maul around with his full arms more, holding them up high above himself flicking his wrists more constantly compared to just shifting his fingers around.
 
Coming to a turn Futegai started to wobble, scattering about all over the place until the whole puppet collapsed flipping him forwards, being on a slope the two tumbled into a rolling ball of terror knocking villagers flying as they zoomed down into a dry baked area smacking into a dead tree.
“AARRGH!” Screamed the genin as he rolled downhill followed by a loud “OUCH!” as he smacked into the solid wooded plant, smashing bark up into the air.
Rubbing his head Futegai got up back onto his feet and looked around the area thinking it would be a good quiet place to practice controlling his chakra in an easier simpler way. The boy quickly sealed up his puppet back into its scroll, relieved it was not broken after all that had happened to it, sitting down besides the tree in a meditative fashion ready to practice in a way he knew how to do.
Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Ram, Monkey, Bird, Dog, Boar; Futegai performed each handseal one at a time, holding them for a few seconds whilst channelling chakra around his whole body before moving onto the next, the chakra almost visibly emanating from the genin's body with great force as he focused on controlling it to its most rigorous form throughout.
As chakra surged through his body in an almost explosive fashion Futegai performed all the handseals once more, this time in quick succession, causing the flow to disrupt and fine-tune around his feet.
 
Futegai nodded as he stood up and away from the tree before darting towards it like a mad man at top speed; stepping onto the tree chakra sewed its way into the bark sticking Futegai's feet to the giant plant as he ran vertically up it as fast as he could.
"Haha yes this is great" He yelled in excitement
Unfortunately his excitement is what caused him to lose concentration causing him to fall to the ground before even getting anywhere.
"Ouch"
The genin got up dusted himself off and regained his focus before headed back up the tree once more.
"Ok gotta remain focused this time"
 
The chakra in Futegai's feet slapped onto the tree like super glue each time becoming more and more controlled as he dashed up the giant, allowing him to run faster and faster until he finally reached maximum speed (which wasn't that great anyways). Getting higher up the tree became harder and harder as gravity seemed to pull down greater, also Futegai was having to dash round branches making it even difficulter although he diddn't let this stop him soon reaching the top where stood at the highest peek rather proudly.
"HAHA!" He shouted over the tops of the trees.
"Yes I made it to the top!"
The genin peered down to the ground down to the tiny gash in the earth where he fell over, everything just looked so puny making him chuckle a little giving him new feelings of excitement that he didn't get when he was all careful and protective.
"Ok guess I should get down" He said after his chuckle.
Futegai proceeded to walk upside-down on the highest branch as he made a simple handseal and with that he plummeted towards the ground as his chakra supply was momentarily interrupted; zooming towards the last branch a rush of chakra surged back into his feet and this time into his hands as well and although he was going to fast to stop, when he grabbed the last branch he had enough control to throw himself at the trunk were both his hands and feet scrapped as the chakra tried to fix him to the tree slowing him down enough as to allow the boy to safely land on the ground.
"Wow that was close" he said with a sigh of relief.
 
After taking a small break Futegai decided to get back into action but how?
He thought it was time to get back onto his puppet and practice riding it once more and as such he had opened the scroll, calling it out into position with a puff of smoke.
"Ok c'mon Enjinkouhei let's do it this time!" He spoke motivationally.
The genin hopped onto his puppet's back spread as many chakra strings as possible all over its body and with a deep sigh he slowly inched his fingers, manoeuvring each string bit by bit causing the parts of the puppet to churn and tick away as they lifted and moved forwards very carefully.
"Ok so good so far" he spoke wearily.
 
Enjinkouhei was very slowly but surely moving along carrying its puppet master on its back much better than before as he tugged on all the many strings in a rather careful fashion, although all the concentration required for such precise control of his puppet was making it difficult for the young genin and it wasn't to far before he broke out of it collapsing to the ground like before.
"Oh man this is hard"
With a quick dusting over and a correction of his puppet Futegai tried once more but this time he took the same approach as when climbing the tree by performing each and every single handseal before hand; Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Ram, Monkey, Bird, Dog, Boar!
A surge of chakra burst throughout Futegai's hand as it rand along his fingers right down to the tips, sparking into bolts of blue, whisping out into many streaks as the boy spread out his hands with each streak separating into many strings each attaching to someplace different on the puppet.
"I gotta do this, I gotta do it for Ken, I can't let my sensei down!" his thought burst in great emotion.
 
Futegai focused his chakra and concentrated deeply as he tried once more to carefully manoeuvre his puppet, this time it seemed to go much better as the arms churned forwards one at a time stepping down onto the next patch of ground before it.
"Yes yes!" he shouted in excitement before quickly going back into concentration.
With each twitch of the finger flick of the wrist and yank of the arm the movements became easier as the genin got used to riding on top of his puppet; each part of Enjinkouhei moved faster and faster as it walked across the dry plains back into town, the hands and feet planting onto the ground with such precision.
 
With a steady speed Futegai was walking down the sandy streets of Sunagakure no Sato rather well though with a few weird looks off people here and there, as a big armoured gorilla walked past their house with a kid on top never the less.
"Hehe this is pretty fun" Futegai commented.
As the rookie puppeteer reached the centre of the village his tummy began to rumble meaning one thing, he was hungry from all that earlier training and so it was time to grab some lunch whilst practicing a method his sensei had told him.
 
Reaching a nearby fruit and veg store Futegai slowly moved Enjonkouhei into an erect hind legs only standing position, of course of which was rather difficult to do having almost toppled over five or six times before obtaining a pretty steady stance whilst managing to hold himself onto the puppet.
"One apple please" He asked politely.
The freaked out shopkeeper shakily held out an apple as the young lad slowly and carefully churned out his puppet's right hand, taking the apple whilst the left hand deposited the correct amount of change. As Futegai reached over to his gorilla's hand for the apple he almost fell over but quickly yanked the masterpiece into position, then with a deep sigh of breath managed to take the apple with his second attempt.
"Wow that was very difficult" he muttered
 
Futegai slowly repositioned Enjinkouhei back onto all fours and took another deep sigh before munching away at his shiny green fruit but it wasn’t enough as his tummy rumbled some more, luckily there was a bread store not too far away so he trotted over to it as fast as he could on his puppet.
Repeating the same process as before Futegai slowly inched Enjinkouhei into the same erect position as when he approached the fruit market, slightly more easy this time compared to before as it started to appear that his skill was well and truly increasing.

Once in position the genin asked for some bread, a nice and simple yet tasty treat, probably one of his favourites, he didn't know how people could think of bread as a plain side dish to be slapped around with other food never the less he outreached his gorilla's right hand once more as it picked up the bread whilst once gain placing down some money but wait! Oh no! He didn't have the correct change so he was going to have to swap a higher amount for some change from the shopkeeper, whom, like before, was rather freaked out; twitching his fingers very carefully Futegai moved Enjinkouhei's hand in position, swapping the coins over only dropping them twice before finally getting it right.
"Hehe this will be good, thank you kind sir" He said kindly.

Slowly repositioning his puppet back onto all fours once gain Futegai munched away at his delicious grand loaf of bread, scoffing it down all to himself when all of a sudden his bowls churned.
"UUURRGH" moaned the boy
He looked up at the sky, it was getting late and he had just remembered why he was out in the first place; feeling around in his pockets Futegai found his medication which was great meaning he could rush home and take them as fast as possible.
