Alice Hyuuga's Byakugan training.
Fri Jul 12, 2013 2:00 am
Alice had once again stormed out of her house after another most likely pointless fight with her aunt Linda. She was tired of her aunt Linda trying to tell her what to do and always checking on her for no reason at all but to annoy her. The thing was that her aunt Linda checked on her in a different way than most parental guardians did. Linda merely had to come to the floor she was on and user her Byakugan and she would immediately see if Alice was in her room, doing something not approved by Linda, or if she had snuck out again. Alice could only catch her on it if she had her Byakugan on herself and had not snuck out for once. She was tired of her eyes being so inferior so she decided to train them in her favorite spot in the mountains. The town was dead as she walked through it to the mountains as it was night and most people were home with their happy family living their oh so happy lives, at least that's what Alice thought to herself. When she finally made it to the mountains the cold air chilled her as she was not wearing what could be considered warm clothing, it could be considered very revealing clothing, but clothing all the same. She decided to go to her favorite spot in all the mountain. It was on the side of the mountain where there was a small cave and a nice big tree that Alice loved to sit under and waste the days away contemplating her oh so dreary and dull existence, so she had many good memories with the tree. She shook of the lovely memories and activated her Byakugan and began to try her best to train it. She began by practicing one of the techniques she had seen her aunt use many times, most of the time they were used on her so she usually was squinting from the pain, but nevertheless she had seen them many times. The first one she would practice was the Eight Trigrams: Palm Revolving Heaven. Her aunt had used this many times to deflect her long range attacks, something all taijustu users, such as Alice and Hyuuga had trouble with. The Eight Trigrams: Palm Revolving Heaven created a half sphere like shape of chakra around the user to deflect any attack. It was one if not THE pinnacle of Hyugga defense and offense. She knew from begging her aunt for a mouth the way she used the attack. Alice knew you needed to release chakra from all your tenketsu and then spin in a clock-wise rotation to use the powerful technique. Alice activated her Byakugan and focused trying to use all she had learned about chakra control to focus chakra in all her tenketsu, she took a deep breath and began to spin releasing all her chakra from the tenketsu. The dome formed was small and fading in and out Alice was having trouble focusing on steadily releasing chakra and keeping the spin. After almost a minute she couldn't keep up the concentration and the chakra stopped flowing and her spinning stopped,and left her the dizziest she had ever been she tried to balance but she just kept waddling around tipping to one side than the other until she finally ran into her favorite tree and fell. A bark shaped red mark appeared on her forehead as she woozily stood up. Like usual Alice was by no means defeated, she would get this technique if it took all night, so she once again tried to focus and spin, but she couldn't focus too well, she was afraid of hitting things around her,which for a hyuuga clan member was silly, but she couldn't help it she constantly moved while she spun and her 20 meter vision wasn't enough, as the mountains and caves for animals were above and Alice was paranoid of falling debris, or an animals eating her. She tired to spin four more times, but she just couldn't concentrate. She was about ready to head back and climb through her window and try again tomorrow in the morning. Her need to win and her tiredness were conflicting in her mind, if only she could look harder. She just needed to focus a little more on her vision. She sat down under her favorite tree and relaxed and began to gather her energy. The tree made her calm and helped her concentrate. When she stood her Byakugan was activated already and a new look of determination could be seen it her colorless eyes. She focused her chakra once again, this time easier as she was calm. She began to once again spin keeping her eyes wide open this time to look where she was going as the chakra formed around her in a slightly bigger dome than last time. Midway through she began to get the nervousness in her mind, but shook it off and put her head up as she spun to see, she could barely see a cave or two, but she knew she just needed to focus more. SO with great mental straining she was able to concentrate on her technique and eyes intensifying them so they could see up the mountains. There were no animals or rubble near by, but there was something, her aunt watching her. She was shocked but she would not let her spin stop and continued for a another few minutes before stopping as her chakra was getting low. As she stopped she told her self not move in fear of dizziness as her aunt walked up.
"I had come to collect you back home as you were gone long, but I saw you were training so I stayed and watched to see if I had been wasting my time or not." Alice prepared herself for the demeaning words her aunt would say, but instead she was met with differ words. "I suppose good enough, a little surprising taking in your work ethic, but nothing I would expect from my niece." Those were some of the nicest words her aunt ever uttered to Alice ever in all her memory. She was able to make a sassy remark when she found she had no energy to talk or move, she had used most of it up practicing. She began to fall but her aunt caught her. "That's enough for now, you're done for today. Don't think your not getting punished for leaving either." Alice pretended she was out cold so she could say she didn't hear, but a few minutes of her aunt charring her, she fell asleep happy for once in a long time.

Alice was extremely happy for once in her dreary life. Usually she was very moody, dreary, and depressing, along with many other things that made people not like to talk to her for very long. She did not mind as she did not like talking to them either, so they could go shove it. Today Alice was not her usual self, she was smiling. Well as close to smiling as could get with the corners of her mouth stitched with her earth Grudge Fear threads. She did not hate a lot of things about her body being made of the Earth Grudge Fear threads, but have the corners of her mouth stitched was certainly one of biggest grievances with the technique. She had to always wear her ninja mask in public because if she did not her mouth would freak people out and make people stare at her, as it was always slightly open in irregular o like shape. If she smiled it looked as if she was from a horror movie, and had more than once been talked to by her aunt for scaring small children when she hadn't worn the mask. She liked her ninja mask as it was, to her, another peculiar accessory that made her stand out. It gave an air of mystery to her demeanor, and stopped people from staring at her irregular mouth. Sometimes it was hard to breath when the mask wasn't adjusted properly, and she had to clean it as sometimes her breath was bad and made it smell, but it was worth it to cover up the one thing Alice was embarrassed about. Her mask also made it hard for people to see if she was happy or not as no one could tell if she was smiling or frowning. Today for example Alice was incredibly happy and smiling, but no one asked her what was up as no one could see she was smiling. Everyone except for her aunt, who could tell by the way that Alice did not give her a sarcastic comment all day, that something was up. Her aunt had expected their daily fight to break out over dinner, but Alice made no arguments, and that made Linda uneasy. Linda asked why Alice was so happy, and she replied that she was happy for making it past round one of the tournament.Truth be told Alice hadn't expected to beat anyone, which was shocking with the air of confidence Alice usually displayed on most things, even if she was bad at them Alice never admitted to failing at anything, she did not give up easy, sometimes to the displeasure of others. Like learning to cook. Alice was terrible at cooking, nearly burning down the kitchen boiling water on multiple occasions. One time Alice had tired to cook dinner for her aunt and uncle. The dinner was supposed to be just instant ramen, some thing that even a ten year old could make. The noodles were somehow burnt and black. How noodled turned black was a mystery, but somehow Alice had done it. The broth was green somehow when it was supposed to be brown, and smelt a bit like a salty fish that had been dead for a month. The ramen looked as if it were out of some kind of horror movie, but Alice did not seem to mind the smell somehow and had proudly presented it to her aunt and uncle. Her uncle had tired a bit and the noodles cracked in his mouth and the broth seemed to have scorched his throat. The hospital had diagnosed it as extreme food poisoning, and his stomach had to be pumped. Alice refused to believe it was her cooking's problem, and thought her uncle just had a weak stomach. Alice never cooked again as her aunt or uncle never asked her to again. Alice tired to cook for them many times, but every time they said they were not hungry, and Alice excepted that as she believed her cooking to be awesome and had stayed confident about her skills in the kitchen to this day. Linda could not believe that Alice wasn't confident in her fighting abilities after the cooking incident.
Alice wasn't so sure about her next match so she begged her aunt to spar with her so she could try and improve at least slightly before the next match. Linda thought over training with Alice she did not want to crush Alice's spirits by beating her in a spar, but she also wanted her daughter like niece to have some confidence for her next match or else she would have already lost before entering the arena. Alice continued to beg and plead for a spar with her aunt until Linda finally gave up and agreed to the spar. Alice smiled knowing that she would need all the training she could get to be ready for her next match. Linda let Alice pick the place where they sparred and Alice decided on the same place where she had sparred Tee, and trained her eight trigrams revolving heaven technique. It was her favorite spot to be and it was easier for her to concentration there. By the time they got to their sparring area it was night and the moon and stars glowed brightly decorating the sky with beauty. The ground still had scars from Alice's intense Eight trigrams revolving heaven training.
Alice jumped back from her aunt until their was a a good amount of distance between them. A cold breeze wafted through the area making the leaves on the tree behind Alice rustle. Alice couldn't see behind her yet, but she knew that other more advanced Hyuuga members like her aunt could. She was determined to reach that point, maybe even tonight. Her aunt took a a regular Hyuuga battle stance and waited for Alice to make the first move since the spar was for her. Alice charged at her aunt at her max speed of 41 attempting to thrust her palm into her aunt stomach and hit the tenketsu located their. Her aunt easily side stepped her niece as her eyes were easily able to fallow Alice's movements, and attempted to jab Alice's side and cause internal damage. Alice was barely able to move forward and dodge the jab as her aunt's speed great surpassed hers. She then attempted to kick her aunt;s leg from under her, but she her aunt jumped back easily avoiding it. "Your speed can't match mine, close combat will be hard." Her aunt told her.
"I'll manage just fine. Don't under estimate me!" Alice growled and charged once again at her aunt with max speed trying to hit her. This time her aunt went on the offensive and deflect the strike by swiftly striking Alice arm dispelling the jab. In the moment of confusion when Alice realized her strike had been deflected by her aunt. Linda rose her leg and kicked Alice in the stomach sending her flying a couple meters back right next to her favorite tree. Alice coughed blood up and held her side. She shakily rose to her feet refusing to give up.
"If you can't fallow my movements, you'll never hit me. You have to let your eyes develop along with your other skills if you want to utilize the full strengths of the Hyuuga. That is the way we train." Her aunt said sternly, and began to charge at Alice with only half speed which was still slightly higher than Alice's max speed. Alice focused and prepared herself for the charge, but at the last second her aunt disappeared out of Alice line of sight and then reappeared behind her and jabbed her in the back with enough force to cause Alice to fall to the ground. "You know how to look in front of you, but you don't know how to look behind. If you can't do that then you will never hit me or any Hyuuga even close to my level." She said sternly and appeared in front of Alice again a few feet away. Alice tried to get her body to move, but the pain and trauma from her aunt's blows made it hard. She thought about giving up, she was just a genin and her aunt had years of experience on her. There was a slim chance that she would ever hit her at her current level of power. Then Alice thought about her goal of beating her aunt, and how she was letting herself down if she just gave up. She though about her first battle in the tournament against the blonde hair girl Hibana who's strength had been massive compared to hers, she had somehow lived through that battle. She also thought about Tee who actually believed in her and actually thought she had potential. She couldn't just stop after how far she came from that first day of meeting the strange boy who had given her boots. She wanted to show people she was talented like the other people in the tournament. She wanted to evolve into a better ninja, no she NEEDED to evolve. She made her body stand and looked her aunt dead in the eye. She was no where near done. She charged at her aunt again this time she was faster which slightly surprised her aunt given Alice's injuries. Still Linda was able to dodge, but moving to the left, but this time Alice saw her move and rose her other hand to strike Linda. Linda was surprised, though still was barely able to move out of the way, just as Alice touched her shirt. Alice cheered in her mind as she had actually touched Linda, but the happiness was short lived as Linda aimed a kick at Alice. Alice manged to jump out of the way this time and land a few feet away from her aunt, who immediately charged at her with slightly more speed than last time. This time Alice saw Linda more clearly than before. She counted Linda charge, by spinning and using the Eight Trigrams Revolving Heaven technique. A sphere of chakra formed from Alice releasing and controlling chakra from all her tenketsu. The force from the technique sent Linda back along with a cloud of dust from the ground around Alice. Alice stopped rotating and waited to see what her aunt would do next. Both ninja could see through the dust with their Byakugans. Linda vanished and reappeared behind Alice by the time the dust had cleared. She attempted to jab her in the back again, but this time Alice saw, and charged chakra in her palm and preparing a technique she had been training to learn in secret for awhile. Linda might be faster than Alice, but this time Alice had the advantage of surprise on her side. Just as Linda tried to hit Alice's back she turned around and thrust her palm at Linda releasing chakra from her palm and doing the Eight Trigrams Vacuum palm technique. Linda's eyes widened completely surprised her niece had been able to do such a technique and also see her. Linda was hit dead on by the Vacuum palm and was sent flying back into the mountain side causing a crack in the side. Alice breathed heavily, but smiled wiping sweat from her forehead and blasted bangs. Linda caught up and coughed slightly from being hit with the technique. Alice tried to make a battle stance, but her body felt numb and she wobbled slightly. She was drained from using Eight Trigrams Revolving Heaven and Eight Trigrams Vacuum palm in such quick succession. Everything around her began to blur. She willed herself not to pass out, but the injuries from Linda, and chakra usage was too much for the genin and she began to fall to the ground again. This time Linda caught her before she met the ground. "I think that will do for today. You should be fine in the tournament, I believe in you, you're a Hyuuga after all." Alice smiled at this, her smile visible as her mask had come down from the fight revealing her mouth. For once she wasn't concerned about it, and neither was her aunt.

Re: Alice Hyuuga's Byakugan training.
Sat Jul 27, 2013 9:00 pm
Alice was once again wandering through the dark streets of Kumo late at night. She had been wandering through the streets at night a lot lately. Maybe it was because she was just tried of dealing with Linda and her various rules of life, or maybe she was just nervous for the international chunin exams that were coming up soon. Alice hands tightened thinking about the event. She was beyond anxious for the exams. There were going to be so many people watching it from all the villages and nations. There were going to be genin from everywhere. Alice was sure they would all have some kind of strange abilities that she had never seen or thought about before. Even in her own village there were genin that had astounding abilities that shocked Alice. People like the girl she faced first round in the kumo genin battle royal who had monstrous strength and a deadly weapon that could absorb elemental attacks. Also the senju member she faced the round after who was able to sprout forests with one hand sign and turn all of the area into an opponent, he was also no ordinary genin mastery such a high ranking technique. Her long time sparring partner, friend, weirdo, and tree killer Tee also immediately came to mind. He was a master at controlling his weird shadowy stuff, he also was a proficient lightning user, wielding an S rank technique that had nearly done Alice in last time, and cost her favorite tree it's honorable and long life. He had the most chakra she had ever seen in a genin. She was sure he would get far in the tournament. Not only because of his abilities, but also because he had a dream of becoming anbu one day. A dream he had seemed to be incredibly passionate about when he told Alice. To get to anbu a ninja has to be recommended by their Kage. No way was Tee gonna be made anbu as just a genin, no one in the village was, it was unfathomable. A ninja had to be jonin to be recommended also, and the only way to get to jonin was by first being a chunin. Alice did not understand Tee dream though, it just seemed so small and humble to her. Most genin dreamed of being a kage, sannin, master, rower or some impossible shit along the same lines. Alice didn't share the dream of those things either, but that was because she was lazy and being any of the high ranking ranks like kage, sannin, or master seemed like too much work, and would take too much effort to achieve. That did not mean Alice did not have her own dream and ambitions that she wanted to see through. Alice's dream and quest was to just simply live forever. She knew that such a quest seemed impossible, and laugh worthy because of its sheer ridiculousness. Alice would have laughed at such an idea as well if she was not the one with the dream. Alice had heard tales of people, no, monsters with the ability of immortality before, most of them were told as fairy tails, but she was sure their were some kernels of truth in the stories told to her, things that lived forever through a religion and rituals, or that traded their flesh and organs for those of a puppets, hair that was alive and possessed bodies stealing the souls of ninja, even snakes that possessed people. Millions of tails fallowed the idea of living forever, there had to be some truth to at least a few of them. She knew that it was possible, and she would achieve living forever no matter what the cost. The cost for the living forever would be high for Alice, her parents had already given their lives for the technique that would allow her to, the Earth Grudge Fear. She would succeed where her parents failed and complete the justus true goal. Sure having one's body became completely made of tendrils that you control was incredibly useful and had helped Alice on many occasions and fights, but the Earth Grudge Fear did not stop there, no there was another way to use the threads that made up her body. Organ harvesting. Alice knew it sounded gross and immoral, and to some degree it was. By taking the heart out of a victim in battle, Alice could use her body's unique structure to integrate the heart into herself, making it so even when her first heart gave out another would take its place. This way Alice could continue to live and see the world change and grow. Alice wanted to live forever, but she didn't know if she could stomach taking the heart out of someone, and putting it inside her own body. It was unnatural, disturbing, most likely unethical, but Alice couldn't stop her goal of using it. Her main goal in life was to live forever, and she also couldn't let what her parents died for go to waste. She would be able to see all of the word at her own pace, taking thing's as relaxed as she wanted with no rush or pressure to finish things. She would wander for all the existence of the world seeing and learning everything she could. Alice the wandering doll had a good ring to it anyways.
While Alice had been in deep thought planning out her quest, her body had subconsciously took her to her favorite spot to train, think, or relax in all the village. It was a little spot to the side of the big mountains in Kumo where everyone in all of the village came to spar and train. She remembered just a few days ago when she had sparred Tee here and had accidentally gone over bored and revealed her Earth Grudge Fear Technique a little. She frowned when she saw the decaying tree that was now broken and laying on the ground. It had been her favorite tree in the whole world. She had shared many memories with the tree. She had played under it since she was a child, wove crowns from its leaves, hid behind it in hide seek, even trained with it by training her tree climbing technique. As she grew up it would be where she would go on the many occasions that she had a fight with Linda that resulted in her leaving the house, or sneaking out after being forced to her room. Countless naps had been had under its lovely shade which blocked the sun from Alice, as she couldn't sleep with the sun shining down on her. It had been the reason she had sparred Tee in the first place, as he had been resting in her spot under the tree. She would never have met Tee in the first place even, if the tree had not been there for her to go to. She slowly ran a hand along it's bark, it was cool and the bark was smooth to her touch, not even her stitching made a sound when rubbing across the smooth bark. She did not know how long the tree would be in the spot before decaying away to nothing. Tee said he knew a guy who would fix it up, but she did not know if the fixing was ever going to happen. She sat down on the decaying bark that had been such a significant part of her childhood and looked up into the night sky of kumo. Alice always thought that the stars in the sky seemed brighter in the mountains. She felt closer to them being in the mountains, like she grab one with her hand and hold it. Alice wondered what a star even looked like up close. All people ever saw was the light that glowed from them, that pierced the pitch blackness of night, so people could see into the sky. The moon was also out tonight, making the night sky brighter than it already was. The moon was full tonight, making the stars seem smaller to Alice. Sometimes Alice thought of the moon as just a big star, though she knew that was incorrect, and people would probably look at her like she was mentally challenged for thinking so. The moon came at night like the stars, it glowed just like the stars, and it was just as pretty as the stars so what is wrong for thinking of the moon as just another star. She could imagine someone going into some long astronomy lecture about the differences and science behind why the moon was not a star, that Alice would fall asleep listening to. Alice did not give really any shits about a scientific explanation, as her own body defined science in some cases. If she wanted to think of it as a star she would, and everyone else could go fuck off about the subject, she would think what she wanted, she always did anyways.
Alice gave a deep breath and stood up from her tragically decaying tree. She was still nervous for the international chunin exams so she decided that she needed to do some training to try and calm her nerves so she could get at least some sleep later on tonight. She decided to try and perform a technique that she had been training to use secretly, the protection of the Eight Trigrams sixty-four palms technique. It was a really strange technique for her to try and use as it very different from all other gentle fist techniques she had learned so far. Instead of focusing her chakra points at multiple spots, or moving at extreme speeds to hit an opponent and and disable the chakra points, the user has to stand completely still and swing their arms swiftly in all directions, while keeping their palms extended outwards so that a thin stream of chakra will from from the palm and extend outwards while the gentle fist user moves, to create a dome of razor sharp chakra. It was such a different technique as their was not movement done besides the arms, it required the gentle fist user to remain in one spot. Alice knew it would require a lot of concentration to be able to make a stream of chakra come out of her palm and move at a high speed with it to defend. She needed to learn how however, as she didn't have many defensive techniques to repel long range attacks besides eight triagrams palms revolving heaven. It would help to have more than one counter for long range techniques, at least to Alice it did. Alice knew that the more she would practice her techniques the closer she would be to being strong and perhaps being able to be more of a threat in the Chunin exams. Alice would begin to test her technique out but first she grabbed a nearby branch that was not to big and that was not too small and launched it into the air about 10 feet high. Then Alice stood completely still and raised her arms allowing her chakra to flow out of her tenkutsu points. Once they would Alice would swiftly and rapidly move her arms around her entire body at a speed that wouldn't even be visible. This would generate a sphere around Alice that would be a sure fire protection against many of her opponents attacks. It would be stronger than the normal Hyuuga rotation which Mona liked about it as she could make it stronger and stronger. Alice didnt stop until she heard the crunch of the branch overhead. Her hands were moving so quick that she didnt even feel the branch fall on top of her nor did she even see where it had gone when she stopped. When Alice had performed the technique successfully by herself on the first try it was an extreme boost of confidence. It made Alice feel a little bit better about the international Chunin exams. But then she though again of what powers would these Genin have. It sure did seem like all the Genin had some cool powers one way or another. Alice herself did have a pretty damn good power and the best thing was only one person even knew about it which was Tee. Tee and Alice had become pretty good friends having encountered one another a couple times and Alice didnt hate him as she hated most people. I mean he wasnt on the top of her list but hey he was there. Alice figured Tee should be lucky to have even met her being as she was as amazing as she was. I mean Tee is OK but Alice knew she was just way better. She was teasing herself in her head with these words. But Alice needed to get back to training which she felt kind of weird thinking because she really wasnt the type to train especially not by herself. But Alice knew she needed to train for the exams that were only a couple of days away. Alice concentrated on the exams, since she really didnt have any long term goals of the sort she figured she would make the exams her goal. She was sure Tee would win the exams but she still wasnt quite so sure about herself. Alice hoped she wouldnt have to fight somebody with jutsu that Tee had because if she did she would have to pull a win out of her ass because Tee had some damn good jutsu.
Alice also thought of the boy who used the wood technique. Alice wondered if he would be joining the International Exams or not and if he was going to join would he do good or not. She remembered his techniques from when they fought and she remembered how he controlled wood and trees and whatnot. But in all actuality it would depend on the arena that the exams were held in because if the exam arena was made out of metal or something then he would be in trouble but if it was from ole mother nature then he would be in good standing. Alice thought what else could she train so that she would be prepared for the exams as well. She was sure everybody else was going through some sort of crazy training that she wanted no part of. Alice knew maybe she could train with her tendrils maybe come up with some cool technique to get the better of somebody from behind or something. Alice allowed for her left hand to come off from the wrist with her tendrils. They whipped and slashed violently back and fourth. Alice then willed her hand to go beneath the ground and it did, she made it go about 10 feet to her left and the come up to grab a stick that was on the floor. Had that been an opponents foot or something they would have been caught in a trap by Alice having no way of ever knowing that it would be there in the first place. Alice allowed her hand to rush toward her above ground forming back into her arm reconnecting and stitching itself back as good as new. Alice would touch the outline of the stitching on her body while looking up at the cool night sky. She had been gone for quite a while and Alice hoped that her aunt would not have noticed her missing because if she did she would go on another one of her nagging speeches and would never stop. One thing Alice hated about that lady was the fact that she kept on talking about things far after they were done and over with. That was something that Alice simply could not stand that her aunt did all the time. Alice often wondered why her aunt did this, was it to purposely make Alice upset, or was it because she really didn't notice. Alice stared up at the ceiling in her room that had a crack on it ever since they had been living there. Alice remembered the many sleepless nights she had because she always thought that the roof was going to cave in on her an crush her. In the end she always fell asleep because she was always too lazy to move especially when it was time for bed that's when you couldn't get Alice to move for nothing. She was just lazy as hell. The air in her room became hot and stuffy making her begin to sweat which she hated. Sweat was icky and nasty so therefore she did not like to sweat as much as she could help it. She thought again of her aunt, maybe her aunt meant well, maybe her aunt was just trying to be protective of her and cared about her and just had a funny way of showing it. Alice activated her byakugan so she could see what her aunt was doing right now. She saw her aunt sitting downstairs on her chair with her hands to her face. Alice could not exactly tell what she was doing but either sh was picking her nose or crying. Alice doubted she was picking her nose because when Alice was a little girl her aunt often screamed on her if she even looked like she was doing it. Alice took a deep breath inhaling the muggy, dense air. As she exhaled she pushed up off of the bed and got on to her feet. She walked over to her door opening it quietly leaving it wide open behind her. She walked down the stairs which creaked with each step she took, the closer she got to the ground the cooler the air seemed to become. It was probably because of the open windows that were always open in the living room because her aunt was always hot. Alice looked over at her aunt who had her hands buried in her face obviously crying and weeping. Alice deactivated her byakugan and looked at her aunt for a while. She felt bad, she rarely did but right now she felt bad. She wanted to maybe make a sarcastic comment to herself to maybe lighten the mood but nothing came to mind. All she wanted was to go over to her aunt and hug her like she once did when she was a child. But she could no longer do that, she was not a kid anymore and would not be treated as such. She said to her aunt a simply "im sorry." Her aunt lifted her head up and the tears stopped. Her aunts byakugan had still been active showing Alice that her aunt knew that she was there the whole time. Her aunt looked as if she wanted to beg Alice for forgiveness and her eyes seemed to say a thousand words that her mouth would never utter. Amongst the seemingly endless and eternal silence her aunt muttered "thank you" as Alice walked back up the stairs and into her room. Alice walked up the stairs with her aunt and the situation blazing in her mind like a forest fire. Then Alice thought, "i wonder whats going to happen." before opening her door, entering her room, and then closing the door behind her as she disappeared into her room. Her room was hot and stuffy as it was before. Alice opens up the window, she looked off into the distance noticing the sun beginning to come up in the sky. She looked down at the back of their house to see her aunt training her Hyuuga techniques for some reason. Alice thought of maybe going out there and seeing what was going on with her and if she was ok but she decided to stay and watch instead because she did not want to interrupt her aunt who seemed to be doing some serious training. Alice activated her byakugan as to get a better look at what her aunt was doing. Then all of a sudden her aunt looked up at her window and said "Alice come down, now." Alice looked at her aunt who was looking at her intently with a look that she could not quite place and had never seen her aunt look at her with before. Alice went down the stairs which seemed to be a chamber in which the hot air from upstairs changed into the cool air that resonated downstairs. She walked over toward the back door opening it casually as she walked toward her aunt. She was not sure what to expect so she stood 5 meters away from her aunt waiting for her aunt to tell her something or perhaps scold her. Instead her aunt said two words which surprised her. Her aunt had said "fight me." These words rang in Alice's ears because she had sparred with her aunt before but the way her aunt had said these words gave Alice the impression that she was ready to dish out an ass beating. Her aunt without awaiting a response went into a perfect Hyuuga battle stance, the same stance that Alice herself had taken many times in battle. Alice herself did not really have any intention to fight her aunt because for some reason Alice felt it just was not right.
Alice herself did not go in to a stance. Her aunt charged her with a rage in her eyes that looked as if she would strike right through Alice. Alice not really having much time to act or move her feet deemed this to be the perfect time to use her new technique in actual combat that she had never used in combat before. Alice quickly rotated her arms while allowing chakra to flow through her tenkutsu points which created a shield similar to the palm rotation but it was stronger and more concentrated. Her aunts right palm collided with the shield that she had created but to her surprised her aunt was not bounded back. It seemed her aunt was on par with the shield if not better as she bounced back after making contact with the shield. She did not have a scratch on her, not a broken nail nothing. Then her aunt lowered her arms "good" she simply said before walking back toward the house. "WHAT NO" Alice screamed at her aunt who was walking back toward the house as if nothing had happened. "WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS IS" Alice screamed furiously. She had been completely enraged although she was not completely certain why. Her aunt looked back at her completely ignoring her rage which pissed her off. Her aunt then said "Alice, I want you to get stronger, i want you to surpass even me one day, Alice.... make me proud." With that she turned around and walked off into the house leaving the door open behind her. Alice deactivated her byakugan being as the fight was over as quickly as it had began. Alice herself did not want to go back in walking past her aunt or even see her for the rest of the day even. At this point the sun had come out and was peeking over the horizon threatening to burn Alice with its heat. Alice leaped on to the side of the house and in to her open window. She flopped down on her bed as she closed her eyes hoping to drift off to sleep peacefully. She did not notice how tired she was until she had gotten into the bed and closed her eyes. She knew right now she was not going to be having a peaceful sleep but it was be a sleep nonetheless. Alice allowed her breathing to slow back to normal and after a short while she drifted into a deep level of consciousness and then fell asleep. Her legs half hanging of the bed and her clothes all tattered up. It seemed things were either only going to get better or worse from here.

While Alice had been in deep thought planning out her quest, her body had subconsciously took her to her favorite spot to train, think, or relax in all the village. It was a little spot to the side of the big mountains in Kumo where everyone in all of the village came to spar and train. She remembered just a few days ago when she had sparred Tee here and had accidentally gone over bored and revealed her Earth Grudge Fear Technique a little. She frowned when she saw the decaying tree that was now broken and laying on the ground. It had been her favorite tree in the whole world. She had shared many memories with the tree. She had played under it since she was a child, wove crowns from its leaves, hid behind it in hide seek, even trained with it by training her tree climbing technique. As she grew up it would be where she would go on the many occasions that she had a fight with Linda that resulted in her leaving the house, or sneaking out after being forced to her room. Countless naps had been had under its lovely shade which blocked the sun from Alice, as she couldn't sleep with the sun shining down on her. It had been the reason she had sparred Tee in the first place, as he had been resting in her spot under the tree. She would never have met Tee in the first place even, if the tree had not been there for her to go to. She slowly ran a hand along it's bark, it was cool and the bark was smooth to her touch, not even her stitching made a sound when rubbing across the smooth bark. She did not know how long the tree would be in the spot before decaying away to nothing. Tee said he knew a guy who would fix it up, but she did not know if the fixing was ever going to happen. She sat down on the decaying bark that had been such a significant part of her childhood and looked up into the night sky of kumo. Alice always thought that the stars in the sky seemed brighter in the mountains. She felt closer to them being in the mountains, like she grab one with her hand and hold it. Alice wondered what a star even looked like up close. All people ever saw was the light that glowed from them, that pierced the pitch blackness of night, so people could see into the sky. The moon was also out tonight, making the night sky brighter than it already was. The moon was full tonight, making the stars seem smaller to Alice. Sometimes Alice thought of the moon as just a big star, though she knew that was incorrect, and people would probably look at her like she was mentally challenged for thinking so. The moon came at night like the stars, it glowed just like the stars, and it was just as pretty as the stars so what is wrong for thinking of the moon as just another star. She could imagine someone going into some long astronomy lecture about the differences and science behind why the moon was not a star, that Alice would fall asleep listening to. Alice did not give really any shits about a scientific explanation, as her own body defined science in some cases. If she wanted to think of it as a star she would, and everyone else could go fuck off about the subject, she would think what she wanted, she always did anyways.
Alice gave a deep breath and stood up from her tragically decaying tree. She was still nervous for the international chunin exams so she decided that she needed to do some training to try and calm her nerves so she could get at least some sleep later on tonight. She decided to try and perform a technique that she had been training to use secretly, the protection of the Eight Trigrams sixty-four palms technique. It was a really strange technique for her to try and use as it very different from all other gentle fist techniques she had learned so far. Instead of focusing her chakra points at multiple spots, or moving at extreme speeds to hit an opponent and and disable the chakra points, the user has to stand completely still and swing their arms swiftly in all directions, while keeping their palms extended outwards so that a thin stream of chakra will from from the palm and extend outwards while the gentle fist user moves, to create a dome of razor sharp chakra. It was such a different technique as their was not movement done besides the arms, it required the gentle fist user to remain in one spot. Alice knew it would require a lot of concentration to be able to make a stream of chakra come out of her palm and move at a high speed with it to defend. She needed to learn how however, as she didn't have many defensive techniques to repel long range attacks besides eight triagrams palms revolving heaven.
