Training Lightning Release. {Solo-Training}

Atsui was on the borders of Konohagakure. He had recently escaped from Tengakure, without hassle. The only reason he had left was due to the village being under attack. He was currently unaware of the condition of his family, though was unwilling to return to the village. He decided that he would return later. If at all, that is. He was heading towards Sunagakure, though not really going to venture into the village. He was just going sight seeing, along the borders. Meeting people along the way, is what he had hoped. Just the other day he had met someone who went by the name of Blaze. Atsui had accidentally attacked him when he came too close to Atsui. He figured Blaze was a Hunter Nin before he had introduced himself as a genin of Sunagakure. Atsui just introduced himself by name and name only, rather than by rank, as Blaze did. Atsui didn't want to reveal himself as a missing nin, especially to those which are allied to the major villages. Didn't want to be hunt down. The only reason he introduced his real name was due to the fact no one would know him as a missing nin. He wasn't that infamed, and hoped he would never be. He preferred a peaceful life, after all.



Atsui was making constant attempts along the way towards Sunagakure to train himself, and better improve himself. Just the other day he made an attempts to physically push himself, and go past the point to where any human would fall unconscious after exhausting themselves so much. He didn't make it to said point, however. He fell unconscious from the amount of training he had done. His muscles still ached from the training, though now too much. He had felt like training some more, though didn't know in what to. He had already learned a new jutsu, which could become useful. Though still, he wanted to gain more knowledge to better aid him in battle. He began to think of his new jutsu, as to possibly improve it to better aid him. Perhaps base a new jutsu from it. Then he noticed something, the fact that it was an elemental jutsu. He began to remember a few lessons in the shinobi academy. Stuff mainly involving the Nature release of shinobi. His own was Fire Release. He began to think back.. when he first made the attempt to pass that one test in the academy. His piece of paper, handed to him due to the fact it was designed to test the chakra nature affinity of the user, burnt. This informed the user they possessed Fire Release. He had the nature release of fire.. Not too complicated. But this gave him an idea. Perhaps he could train himself to be capable of using.. two elements? A mystery Atsui had not yet discovered. It may be possible, though if not, an extreme amount of time would be wasted.



He considered the opportunity. He had all the time in the world at the moment, though wasting that time means nothing, he wouldn't want to waste it should this entire experiment fail..


He sighed. Deciding to go forth and make the attempt. Though one problem remained, there were several options to choose from. Wind Release, Water Release, Earth Release, and then there was Lightning Release. Four options, though for now only interested in one. His main problem; which one is he mainly interested in? Water release allowed for the manipulation of nearby water. Earth release allowed for the manipulation of the very ground Atsui stood upon. Wind Release allowed for the production and manipulation of the wind, and virtually could cut anything. Then there was Lightning, which could produce electricity to pierce, stun, or whatever... it seemed to be the most promising.



Another problem presented itself, the fact he didn't have any chakra paper to tell him if he had began to use the elemental release properly. THen he didn't even remember what, besides burnt paper for fire, meant. He began to attempt to remember the lesson, then looked up. The sun was setting. Time for sleep. With a sigh, Atsui climbed up the tree and began to think. He laid his back against the trunk of the tree, while his legs stretched out on the branch. He was thinking of the lesson once more. What else was it? Fire burnt the paper.. wind.. cut it.. earth... make it crumble away..? He questioned the last one he could remember. "Now.. what was the other two.." Water probably soaked the paper... obviously.. what about Lightning though? "Hmm...." Perhaps it electrocuted it.. probably making it crumbled?


Whichever way, he had decided on which nature release to train for. Lightning, he decided. Though still, he lacked in the special paper. How would he train? With a sigh, he decided to sleep on it.






As the night passed, the sun began to rise. It had awoken Atsui up before he was ready to awaken. He sighed, though had an idea for his training. He could have used a little more sleep, his body was telling him to lay back down and close your eyes, though the sun was yelling "Get out of bed you lazy fuck." And with that, he jumped down. It wasn't a great fall, no more than fifteen feet really. Though the fall had made him lose his balance a bit, due to the fact that he was tired still.



He stood up tall and let out a long, lengthy yawn. He had an idea for his training, and the area he was in was perfect for the training. He needed leaves for this training session. He sighed, still tired, now hungry. He could use the trees around for leaves, though, food not so much. Unless there was a tree which bore fruit from it's branches along with the leaves...



He decided to go hunting. He took out his Katana blade. He needed to decide as whether or not to go fishing with his Katana blade or to find an animal which can clearly outrun him.. fishing it was, he decided. With that, he looked for a small stream, river, or lake. Soon enough he found a nice body of water. There were many small fish with it. He simply waited by the edge and waited, Katana blade pointing downwards. When a fish ventured close enough, he caught it. He stabbed downwards, and picked it up. It was pretty small, though perfect size for a one person breakfast.




He cooked the fish after gutting it of it's bones, using the fire ball technique and a small fire spot, built for a fire. He put the fish on a stick, preferring not burning his Katana blade. After it was cooked, he feasted.



After finishing his breakfast he decided to begin his training. He took a leaf from the tree and held it between his palms. He tried to focus his chakra into the leaves. It wouldn't happen right away, he knew that. It would probably take a few weeks. He continued to focus his chakra, remembering the first time he had done this. THe slight difference was that way back when he was an academy student, not a C ranking missing nin. He was also using special chakra paper which aided the user in finding their affinity Nature release, rather than having them work for it. He was happy when he had passed the test on affinity chakra. He was the first up, too. Fire release seemed to be the most common, though. Atsui bother'd to note other's gaining the elemental release of fire. It gave Atsui some disappointment in his achievement, though he was proud nonetheless. Now he was going to be making a new achievement, dual nature releases. Fire and Lightning. Later on he would certainly work on a third, but, he decided at a later point in time. A few months, perhaps.




As he lifted his hand, he noticed something. A small piece of the leaf was crumbled up, another part, directly on the opposite side, burnt. He panted, having wasted some energy on that already. He took out another leaf, and began again. He poured chakra into the leaf, and began to concentrate. He could feel the heat coming from the leaf. When he unconvered his hand from the leaf, it was burnt, mainly. A small part crumbled, though soon burnt away. It caught flame, right after he released the leaf. He quickly began to stomp on the leaf with his shoes, putting out the flame. "Phew.." He said, and sighed. This was becoming hard...



Three weeks had passed. He stayed mainly in the same spot. He had hunted for food, like anyone else would. He continued his training by a few hours each day, thus not progressing as quickly as he would have hoped. He perhaps would have been done last week if he had kept it up longer, though he had gotten lazy. Besides, his chakra supply wasn't all that, he had a low amount. At least, at the time being. Perhaps he could improve that later... but still, he couldn't have trained as much as he had liked due to it.


At the moment, it was around noon. Having just eaten breakfast, he began to train. He put a leaf in between his hands and had started to pour his chakra in it. He had gotten better over the weeks, thankfully. When he had lifted his hand, the leaf had completely crumbled. This usually happens at first. He attempted it again, surprisingly, it happened again. Never before had he gotten succession two times in a row. Third times the charm perhaps? He attempted it yet again, and with luck, the attempt had been completely successful. He took a breath, and exhaled deeply. He was relieved that this training was finally over with. He threw the last leaf onto the ground. With what little luck, it'll look as if it were stepped on. He laid back, on the ground in a small pile of the leaves. Having successfully finished his training, he wondered what he would do with his newfound abilites. New techniques, of course. But what kinds?


Perhaps, he figured, he could merge Fuinjutsu with the use of elements. A Lightning release seal, perhaps? Maybe a fire release seal. There were already a handful of elemental seals, he thought. He had assumed the simply explosive tag had a nature release sealed inside, hence the boom when activated. A powerful combative tool, perhaps he could produce his own, with his new abilities. With a grin, he began to consider all the opportunities that came with the power of a nature release.




Now it was time to go on the move once more. Having remained in one spot too long, he decided to set off, to the borders of Sunagakure as originally planned. He was simply going to be hanging around their borders, socializing with anyone he comes by, hoping that they're not foe but rather friend. He wanted to avoid conflict, which may be hard considering his situation. Being a missing nin did mean being hunted down no matter your intentions. His intentions were rather pure in his own mind, training so that the need not be to flee from another battle where he had the chance to die. He planned on fighting next time he had the opportunity. Not that he planned on fighting, but when attacked, he shouldn't need to hold back. Unless it's a spar of course.. which is unlikely to be his next battle.



He headed off, with what little supplies he had already. He took his weapons and went off, towards the great desert of Sunagakure.
