Taking a seat in the centre of the field, Senji folded his legs. Inhaling he reverently placed his hands together, exhaling while they descended toward his lap from his chest. With intense concentration he felt deep within himself, reaching with his mind to become aware of his chakra system. Senji was the best channeller of all the Genin in the village, a fact which stood as a testament to his outstanding chakra control. This merit was well earned, as he was soon aware of the coursing energy moving through his chakra network. The feeling of the combination of spiritual and physical power cascading through each point, welling at the gates before entering the next section. He followed this mystical river through to his centre, the origin of it all. Slowly he opened his eyes, peering out over the flattened surface that stood before him. He was ready to begin.
Slowly his left arm lifted palm downwards, twisting quickly as it reached the apex of its ascent. At this moment he commanded his chakra, his magical essence, to pulse up from its origin toward his shoulder and down through his arm to be released in a brilliant blue orb. It blasted up through the air, bursting at the end of its ten meter range. The sky was filled with an eerie blue hue as it exploded like a small firework and Senji felt his control over the chakra slip as it did so. Senji looked up slightly as the light faded with a smirk. His right hand moved now from where it lay in his lap. Two threads of chakra burst from between his fingers, spiralling around each other into the sky in a brilliant double helix. After cutting the chakra supplying them off, he followed up by flourishing his right wrist, causing the slowly fading chakra cords to erupt, bursting open in a similar explosion to the orb before. Senji bathed in the brilliant light, beginning to giggle as he created his own fireworks show.
He placed his hands together quickly, performing a string of hand seals. The way that hand seals interacted with and formed his chakra was so much different to when he was simply willing it into shape. The precise movements which had descended from ancestors centuries past caused predetermined reactions from the energy within him, calculated responses determined by some past scholar desperately grasping at newfound power. His chakra gathered beneath him, lifting him several inches off of the ground. The coating power around his legs and buttocks lifted him slowly from the smooth stone surface, giving him an unearthly appearance as his coattails trailed on the ground beneath him. Suddenly he thrust his legs out from beneath him, lifting him further off the ground to compensate for his added height. It was time for the finale.
Arms outstretched Senji poured chakra from his body, conscious of the rushing river that poured from all three hundred and sixty one points and positively erupt from the eight points known as the gates. Slowly it pooled on the ground below him, before he moulded it expertly into a massive circle that encompassed the floor of the training field. The circle gave off an unearthly glow, giving light to the otherwise dark training ground. A soft 'ooh' came from a group of Genin that had come to train much like Senji himself. The boy mage had to pause for a while as he gathered himself, concentrating on the depleting source of chakra within him. With immense effort, Senji pushed chakra out of him at a constant rate, casting a long string of ninjutsu in a magnificent display of lumiscent blue shapes that curled through the night.
Several casts of stellar swathe emerged from the edge of Senji's magic circle, arcing back toward the center in amazing swirls and elaborate loops. As they met above Senji's head he reached up to touch them as they twirled around eachother in a great knot. Further energy was expended as he forced chakra up his arm in a second stellar strike, touching the knot and carrying it further into the air before reaching its ten meter peak and exploding. The orb of chakra's sudden expansion was awesome to behold as the ropes of blue energy fizzled, slowly unravelling into shining particles from top to bottom. During this time, further spectators arrived as one of the Genin had run to get his friends. Senji had his own crowd to observe the light show as it unfolded in brilliance and grace.
Further channelling into the magic circle saw several tendrils of chakra reach up from beneath Senji, weaving and circling into a writhing orb of light around him. In his suspended state he closed in on himself, curling up into a small ball and shutting his eyes as he concentrated wholly on his next technique. Soon after the ball of squirming blue tentacles had formed, a burst of light pushed through a single part. Another beam of chakra emerged from another random point, shattering some of the ropes as it went. The entire orb began to shake as pressure welled up within it. With intense force the ball of chakra burst open, hurling a blue wave of light in all directions as Senji unravelled into a spread-eagled position slightly off the ground. The chakra slowly faded, the previous darkness returning to the training field.
No longer able to sustain it, the magic circle shattered into small blue particles starting from the outermost ring. Just as the point directly below him had dissipated his feet touched the ground signalling the end of his hover jutsu as well. As his weight transferred to his legs, Senji found his knees could not support him and he fell to the ground quite awkwardly. He realised that in the heat of the moment, he had forgotten to breathe. Applause erupted from the small crowd that had watched his display, with much whistling and cheering. With a hand on the ground he tried and failed to stand, rocking back into a sitting position. Breathing heavily, Senji placed his hand on his forehead trying to dispel the haze between his ears. Instead of clearing, it only intensified and he continued on his backward fall, lying splayed out on the ground completely exhausted.
