Yazu learns (training, P)

Yazu climbed off of the straw bed that he typically slept in.  He was used to the paltry living environment that he currently had, it was all he'd ever known.  He looked around at his hole in the wall dwelling where he was kept.  There were no furnishings and the locked door had a slat in it where he was fed through. Though it had a large window on one side of the room in which the sun shone through it very brightly allowing him to take in the rays. The food was never bad and they gave him plenty to do if he requested it so as not to feel too much like a prisoner, but they couldn't just let him out without keeping a close eye on him.  He wandered around and looked over a few of the scrolls he was given.  Yazu was an amateur medical nin and enjoyed it a lot though he was much more capable in the ways of Ninjutsu.  This did not hold him back from doing what he enjoyed.  Today he wanted to learn chakra anesthetic, the ability to fuse his chakra into a form of anesthesia and draw out a numbing effect, this technique was good to use on the battlefield.  Additionally, would also practice several other techniques on this day of training .  The scrolls on the floor held the secrets to basic medical jutsu and to creating the mark seal used in tracking and summoning.  He was used by the village as a spy and an assassin and on the battlefield he truly enjoyed the role of triage specialist.  He walked over to the closely guarded door.  A local ninja named Tomo stood there.  Tomo was tall and powerful and had great perceptions, all great qualities of a guard.

"Good morning Tomo, how are you this fine day.  I again apologize for you having to be here rather than be out enjoying it." Yazu said slyly with an innocent smile on his face.  He truly felt bad that Tomo couldn't be enjoying the beautiful scenery outside though he also hoped Tomo would leave his post and give him an opportunity to escape.  In the last few years him and Tomo had become kind of close having shared the stories of their lives with one another.  Yazu never wished Tomo any harm but at the core he knew that to make an omelet you had to break a few eggs. 

" I am fine Lord Yazu,  are the scrolls i brought sufficient for your training Master?"  Tomo asked politely concerning a handful of the training scrolls that had been brought to him earlier that week. They were concerning the Chakra anesthetic, Mark seal, and Basicc E rank Medical jutsu abilities all very simple abilities that Yazu would have very little difficulty learning.  Yazu was very perceptive and was considered a prodigy when it came to most jutsu.  It was likely due to his clan and could even be related to the strange kinjutsu that was also linked to his bloodline known as the Earth Grudge fear.  Wherever his intelligence stemmed from it took him little time to master jutsu's he was a genius at it.  With his build as well he was 5'8 and muscularly built he also excelled at taijutsu.  With thes qualities in addition to the blood lust he knew why he wasn't allowed to mingle with the street folk of Kiri on a regular basis.

Yazu sat on the ground his legs crossed all he was wearing were his black breeches made of a spandex type of material that gave him great protection with maximum flexibility.  Pulling out the first scroll he saw that it was the guide to mark seal.  He noted the kanji's and inscriptions of the seal.  It was very small and he wondered how one would draw it without alerting the person it was placed on.  He tried several on a scrap scroll until he ahd finally mastered it's completion.  He then thought about how he would ever stick it on his decided target once he was released from the cage and given freedom over people.  YAzu would spend the next several minutes examining as he had found the conclusion he needed to find to learn how to place the small dot on his intended targets.  He would have a small scroll with several of them drawn in soft ink on him so when he wanted to use it he would just stick it to his finger and place the seal. He would have many people to command, control and harvest going forward. 

Yazu then hefted the next scroll up on to his lap knowing this scroll to be much more difficult.  It was the chakra anesthetic scroll, and he would have to learn this one at the same time as the basic medical jutsu that he was here planning on learning.  He started reading the scroll and scanned it.  He assimilated all the knowledge and went inward to the place where he accesses such knowledge discerning how it works.  His eyes closed he concentrated trying to draw the chakra out and to the forefront to make the chakra anesthetic work to its fullest capability.  He could feel the numbing poison forming in his palms and could feel the chakra sculpting into his hands making the jutsu flow together completely smoothly.  He smiled as his genius impressed him greatly, though it wouldn't be complete until he had the necessary jutsu for understanding medical techniques.  He disengaged the jutsu and pulled out the third scroll.  Basic Medical chakra infusion,  he would locate on the scroll the imperative info he needed to utilize to truly grasp the jutsu he wished to use.  This one was for basic healing allowing him to channel his chakra into another and closing the wound.  The current ability he wished to learn was for minor sutures because anything greater than that would simply be another heart to take in the art of triage.

 The weak perish so the strong may live.

He then flowed the chakra to his hands allowing what info he had just taken to take hold.  He coursed the chakra smoothly down much like a true natural.  He had always thought he was meant to do medical jutsu but due to his bloodline and limited understanding of basic human anatomy he knew that mastering powerful ninjutsu would serve him better in the overall.  He maintained the anesthetic in the palms of his hand and stood.  Tomo didn't typically watch in therough the slatted bar doors that Yazu slept behind, though in a few seconds he might wish he had because Yazu needed someone to test his newly found knowledge on, and for Yazu only living specimens were worthy.  He eyed Tomo who stared lazily at the wall not really paying much attention to anything.  He was likely thinking about his family or some other form of distraction outside of the here and now that would cause him to be caught in Yazu's "training".  Yazu leaned his body back and shifted his body slinging his right arm out with the threads connecting the arm to the body, His Hand and forearm launched forth aimed directly at the guards neck hoping to catch him in the primary nervous system causing a perfect knockout.  Yazu worried that with Tomo's senses he would never succeed in the viscous attack and likely be scolded or worse, Tomo would come in and beat him senseless as he had had to do several times in the past.  Yazu watched as the dark gray threads guided the green enhanced hand  toward its destination. He was only several meters away and he watched in slow motion as the hand passed the intervals. One meter in and he still didn't notice.  Too far away to tell whether it would make it without trouble.  2 meters Tomo still gave no sign of catching on to what Yazu had planned. 3 meters , 4 meters, 5 meters, the hand was almost there just less than a meter left before it came in contact with the guards neck knocking him unconscious and rendering hm the ideal target to practice the mark seal on. 

Of course Yazu wanted to place a Mark seal on the guard charged with his care taking.  He always liked the ability to keep constant tabs on somebody especially if they were as important in his life like Tomo.  The hand was now within inches, Yazu could see the sweat dripping downTomo's neck and the man had yet to flinch or even move a muscle.  YAzu knew that it would be cake from this point.  Then when the hand grasped the back of the deck Yazu could feel something was different.  He could tell this wasn't Tomo it was something else.  He felt Tomo's flesh turn grainy and slide about his clenched hand as brown grains of sand fell about his hand.  He instantly drew his hand back looking around for where the wily guard might be.  He looked around everywhere his hand now reattaching to the arm in the center of the forearm.  The guard was nowhere to be seen nowhere in sight. 

Yazu figured that Tomo might have used a sand clone to go on lookout for him today which would make sense, the guard had done such things before to get out of doing his duties, however Yazu always paid the consequences had he ever destroyed one.  Now he saw the great pile of sand laying complacently on the ground and Yazu found himself fearing, knowing that uon the return of his guard hw would have a great deal of explaining that he would have to do.

Yazu walked over content that he had learned all he had to learn and stepped under the shower, though it wouldn't really be described as such, more a faucet attached to a wall that always produced cold rust colored water.  Today was hot though so the water would feel good.  He rinsed himself off and washed up.  He stepped out and put on his robe then tied the thick rope belt around his waist.  He then took the his hair and tied it back into a top knot.  He knew a battle was about to come and he was prepared.  He stood at the gateway awaiting Tomo's fiery entrance as he would likely come in guns blazing and trying to take Yazu down for the attempted attack.  Though that's what Yazu wanted he was going to place the seal on his guard no matter the cost.  He knew Tomo couldn't kill him he wasn't allowed but he could beat him within an inch of his life, and that is what Yazu wanted to prevent from happening.

Tomo arrived at the gate, "What in the hell was that for?" the large man yelled.

"I have new jutsu to test," Yazu replied nonchalantly.

"Well, you are going to get that chance you little bastard," Tomo screamed as he turned into sand and slipped the gates.  Yazu thought for a second how Tomo truly was the ideal guard for him, not needing to carry a key to get to him.  Yazu prepared the anesthetic for when Tomo got close.  As Tomo's form shifted back into his normal statethe large guard launched a mean strike laying Yazu across the face,  Yazu took the hit and reached around launching his hand and grabbing the back of the neck numbing all of Tomo's body and laying the guard out.  Yazu then touched his own face to dull the pain from the hard right hook he had just taken.  He then knelt down beside the man and placed the Mark Seal directly in between the man's eyes and watched as it disappeared from sight.  Now Yazu would never have to worry about making this mistake again always knowing which Tomo was which.  He smiled a congratulatory sigh to himself and refolded the scrolls placing them on Tomo, he then took a seat on his bed and basked in his small, but not meaningless victory.
