Hoshigakure Second Class (Open to all Hoshi Genin)

"Also. It's important to note that the way in which you begin the process of even being able to summon someone or something requires a complex set of fuinjutsu. THe formula is simple once you get the hang of it, however performing it incorrectly could cause it to fail in combat or not work how it was meant to. You see when performed correctly the Mark seal is a tiny dot sized seal that disappears almost completely from view. With mastery over this y..." Rei was cut off about half way into her long and quite obnoxious explanation. It was for the best, or at least the one to interupt, ashareial, thought so. SHe hated when her sister grand standed, and interupting miss aki was quite a bit worse.

As the girl began to talk, sounding far too much like a know it all for the blond haired twin's prefference, Ash turned her attention to a tall bookshelf that for the sake of this post either was always a few quick steps from the cosplay princess, or magically appeared because plot convenience. Scaling it quickly she'd turn, plopping down on the top with a bit of wood dangling from her chakra strings a few feet below. Right at the apex of Rei's explanation, at the point where I the omniscient narrator cut off her speech, Ash performed the summoning jutsu, drawing the girl to her...... about three meters in the air and with no warning. Rei's eyes grew wide as ash waved once before pulling her materials back up and continuing her work, grinning wildly as the tiny black haired child fell the full distance, arms waving wildly before crashing into the ground below.

"ASHAREIAL I SWEAR TO...Um.... Shit. " She clammed up immediately, looking at the blond haired konoichi who was teaching. Why did her sister always put her in situations like this?! Pushing off the ground she'd stand back up, brushing the metaphorical dust from her clothes before moving to their teachers side, trying her best to hide a pout that was far too obvious.

Hugs! The hug itself sent the boy known as Dusk's batteries of happiness into overdrive as he hugged the blonde female back and waddled away from her as she went about helping the other students. While she did this he made notes of how the other students had been doing, some had been doing it okay while the others had been having a bit of trouble but with how great of a teacher they had it would no longer be an issue of who couldn't do it anymore. As the lesson furthered he moved towards his seat scrawled in his strange drawings, erasing them all and listening onward as she began yet another lesson on a jutsu or set he did not know. Now while she had been talking about the jutsu in their entirety, Dusk once again began to make notes in scribbles only he could read until she had finished and told them to try it.

Now here was when Dusk had ignored the words of the female that came in with the annoying entrance, he continued with his notes (because no one is going to listen to someone who isn't even knowledgeable about the damn spec as a whole) and continued to draw mumbling about something along the lines of trees to himself. After finishing his diagram that was once again, in a way only he would be able to read he focused his chakra into the tip of his finger and applied it to his pencil before chucking it out of the window. With a small crash he waited for a moment before slowly making the hand seals for the summoning jutsu before summoning the pencil back. Success!

Now for the actual application of the jutsu on a clone. With that he summoned another him which was followed by a "Hi" and a "You again!" from the both of them. What little fun he could have with another him was fun indeed. Recreating the fuuin seal upon his left index finger he poked the clone in the face to set up the seal and then told the clone to waddle off. After the clone had waddled out of the room a good distance, Dusk would once again form the seals for the Summoning Technique and poof! There had been the clone waving at him with a small dango in his hand. How did he get that in such a small amount of time? Well he wasn't telling since soon after the clone had dispersed and soon left Dusk by his desk hungry v.v After completing his attempt he looked to Aki before sitting down and raising his hand," Could we learn something about the elements...Say Earth?" He wanted to know because since water had been his first element, Earth went hand in hand with it. After all the land was created and then the seas.

In the land of dreams, Castiel would get the opportunity to relive moments of his life when happiness was not a pursuit, but a reality.  Where he could remain in the embrace of his family nearly indefinitely, and would not have to live through the torment that he had been through.  So in the several moments that he had been asleep he was at peace.  That was until that god forsaken radio had begun to shout its racket once again.
 
The radio blared in Castiel's ear jolting him awake causing him to leap backwards in an attempt to create distance between himself and the machine that he believed in this moment to have been conceived by Satan himself.  The tactic may have worked, if there hadn't been a chair between himself and the direction he wished to go.  As he woke he would slap his hands into a ram and concentrate the chakra into his body feeling the enhancement take over planning to backpedal away from the stereo and to the furthest corner of the room.  Except instead all the brown haired boy would manage to do would be to fly into several chairs and trip headlong collecting the chairs as he went until all that remained in the corner of the room was a mangle of a half a dozen chairs tangled around Castiel.
 
His head and arms protruded from the side, his chin resting on an askew and bent leg of a chair that suck out just below his head.  The red eyes of the Yuhi were now wide open spinning in his head.  After regaining composure a smile would slowly creep across his face, as he would snort in an attempt to hold back his laughter.  He would fail though and begin cackling and cracking up.  He did genuinely find the prank funny.  After several moments of unabashed laughter he would take a few deep breathes and look up to where the teacher stood.  She had already begun teaching more rudimentary jutsu for the learning.  He would try to grasp what she was saying but found it somewhat difficult, finding that being locked in a prison of chair legs.
 
"Well at least I got the flicker down," he would say motioning Ashuron over to help him out of the mess seeing as that boy is the reason he was tied up to begin with.  Castiel had missed the entirety of the speech about Mark sealing and now was only catching the summoning tech.  He would try to watch and take in what she spoke.  Hearing only bits and pieces given the ruckus in the classroom.  Though he did manage to get the very general gist of the jutsu from what was told.
 
Watching the others would be much more conducive to his learning than the speech, noting every time his classmates would fail or succeed.  Seeing one of the other boys tearing at a scratchpad with a pencil.  Noting the girls who seemed to be annoyingly big headed helping the teacher coach.  Whew, so many different personalities to contend with in the classroom.  All he wanted to do was write down that he was here so he didn't get in trouble and take a nap, but how could he do so amidst the chaos.
 
Cas would squiggle free of the chair cage and flip one chair that wasn't bent, and reclaim his previous seat.  The boy's eyes would narrow and hone in watching the boy Taiyo perform the jutsu, with excellent narration.  Even if he hadn't seen Akihana perform it he would be able to gather more from Taiyo's attempt.  Watching as the boy would channel the mark seal, Castiel would repeat the action on the stereo that lay silent and discarded beside him.  He would close his eyes and craft the symbol.  He realized that the symbol only held a small outlet for his own chakra, and the symbol was not entirely predetermined.  He would add a small degree of customization to it, making it appear like the Yuhi clan symbol with some added scribbles.  The symbol would imprint directly on the play button as he realized he had managed to pull it off.  Of course it was not perfect.
 
Castiel would try several more times in an attempt to refine the symbol marking process in the hopes of creating the perfect symbol that he would not only enjoy, but would also work.  After fine tuning it, it would be the proper opportunity for revenge.  It would take several minutes for him to get it right as his understanding of fuinjutsu was limited.  After that short time he would finally make a seal that he would be able to sense and read.  It was perfect, looking similar to a rose with the Yuhi symbol in the center. 
 
Castiel would stand and yawn stretching his hands above him, tightening his muscles then releasing them, then would smack his lips together and rub his eyes.  The Yuhi would bend over and lift the boom box and carry it over to a window.  Hoisting it up and resting it on the edge he would slide the window open and enjoy the breeze as it rolled in over him waking him up a bit.
 
He would then push the radio out of the window as it rolled out and crashed to the ground, shattering as it would into a dozen pieces.  The boy could tell the symbol remained intact.  He would meander through the crowd and go back to his comfy seat.  Now he would have to find a way to tap into the summoning and make the shattered radio appear before him.
 
He would perform the hand signs necessary and concentrate on the mark seal.  While in this concentration he could see a hole through the void.  He could see space and time in its infinity. Castiel wondered to himself how he had managed to see it so clearly and defined without ever having experienced or used any jutsu like this one before.  He would concentrate more and more feeling his own chakra that he had embedded on the boom box.  He knew instantly how to perform it, which he found odder than anything.  Castiel had a penchant for Genjutsu as was his blood line, but he did not imagine that he would be abe to control Space and Time with limited ease.
 
He would place his right hand flat on the ground of the classroom, his palm touching the floor and fingers outstretched.  The chakra would channel forward as he felt the seal move from its position outside on the ground to just beneath his hand.  The battered front of the radio now laying on the ground in front of him. 
 
A massive smile would grow on his face and he would laugh, while yelling aloud, "Hell Yeah!".  As the room stayed busy and concentrated on the practice Castiel would take a moment to relax having now successfully completed the techniques.  Of course with all such techniques fine tuning was always something that must be done, knowing he may have difficulty performing it in the future.
 
Leaning back in his chair he had a new perspective on the training, and Castiel would wait until Akihana would speak again now waiting to absorb all forms of knowledge that could be attained.  Unfortunately for Cas he had an issue with sleeping, and if the waiting took too awfully long he would find himself drifting off into the peaceful serenity of his own mid while he waited for further  instructions.
It would not be long before he would find himself with closed eyes and tilted head passed out.

1755 TWC Learned Flicker, Summoning and Mark Seal

Sasuke was somewhat agitated that he wasn't picking up the body flicker as faster as he would have liked. He spent some more time zipping around the room perfecting the application of chakra to his speed. He favored the style of this technique that allowed him to add his strength to his speed rather than his chakra. He wasn't in the mood to continue but he saw that everyone was doing a fantastic job so he kept up all the hard work and worked on it again, and again, and again. It wasn't all that fun but he kept going. He remembered exactly how the teacher had done the technique and he replicated it after practice. Practice makes perfect. Sasuke kept at it for some time and he was actually one of the last students to finish learning the technique. He didn't like that one bit, I guess you could say the little crossdresser was used to being towards the upper twenty-fifth percentile in the Academy but here he was average at best and a bit slow on the uptake at worst. Sasuke kept going but he wasn't quite able to master it. He just kinda patiently sat back and take notes. He'd figure this stuff out at a later date. 

He took his seat and listened to the teacher talk about summoning. Sasuke was interested in becoming a powerful summoner so he made extra care to listen to everything she had to say on the subject. He took notes on all the information pertaining as to how to make the Summoning marking. Sasuke studied the jutsu mechanics and began making more and more of the imprints. He grabbed his lipstick from his utility belt and marked it and practiced using the jutsu. He practiced a bunch of more times to perfect it. It was a tedious exercise and he could feel the blood boiling as he attempted to reproduce the desired effects through trial and error. The demonstration was helpful but it did not help his deposition. Some of the people in the room were talking and saying unnecessary things which did not help Sasuke's concentration. It was as if the concept of being a ninja (meaning silent) was lost on this lot of genin. He ignored them and continued his work. This was gonna be a long day.

It was inevitable that some people would pick up techniques faster than others. Though Akihana personally wasn't concerned with speed. These were all basic jutsu hat ninja would eventually learn, fast or slow. What she was more interested in was how they took the learning process. From Dusk's odd little notes to Ashuron's more practical approach to Castiel's smashing of the boombox to Ash's complete apparent ignorance of the lesson and focus on her puppets, she knew each one was trying to make sense of the jutsu taught in their own way and that was a lot more interesting to the blonde than who learned at what pace.

When it seemed another solid batch had at least grasped the basics of the mark and summoning techniques, the young woman cleared her throat once more, hoping to get everyone's attention. "Alright guys, you're making some great progress. Remember, whether you pick up things fast or slow, the important thing is to understand what you're doing. These techniques might be basic but they will teach you the beginnings of how to mold chakra to your desired effect. Mark Seal opens way for further fuin techniques, shunshin and summoning are your introduction to space time techniques and now we're doing to be focusing on some ninjutsu."

With that, she would raise her hand once more and instead of the usual glass sheets rewriting themselves, they would disappear and multiple first aid kits would instead slide out from a panel on the floor in front of her, enough for everyone in the class.

"Medical knowledge is important, especially out in the field. What if one of you gets hurt? What if there are no hospitals near by? Everyone grab a first aid kit each and inside it you will find..." As an example, she opened one herself. A small spongy model of a human hand appeared, clear blemishes marked on the skin. "All of you get a body part. Mine is a hand with a burn. I can heal it by performing basic medical ninjutsu." With that, she raised her own hand to the model one, her fingers glowing green with medical chakra.

"All of you guys will receive a differently injured part of the body, your job is to try and fix the injury. Try to focus on first cleaning the wound and then closing the skin, imagine your chakra being used as a salve to heal the injury and you should be on your way."

Cas had just in fact finished his jutsu, and it seemed as though he had the hang of it.  However he had burnt through most of his remaining chakra casting the mark seals and finishing the summoning jutsu.  So while he waited for everyone else in the class to finish what they were practicing he would catch a few winks of sleep.  The boy would look at the chaotic classroom and could not help but feel a bit out of place.  So many interesting and unique individuals here, some of them older, some younger but all of them learning under the same roof.  Castiel would watch as the others tutored, the brown haired boy would lean back in the chair setting it on two legs and lean against the wall.  The eye lids would drop, half covering the red eyes, and in the next moment they were entirely closed, as he had drifted off into oblivion.
 
The boy had no clue how long he had been asleep he only knew that when he was awakened he would now be holding a flesh like replica of an arm.  The arm had a large gash in it and the gash seemed relatively deep, beside him was a first aid kit that had been packaged with the arm.  The boy set the chair legs down and looked around. He would watch as the instructor fixed up the wound, and Cas would be entirely out of his element staring at the supplies and body part as if they were something from a foreign land.  "Shit, what am I supposed to do with this, Im no healer,"  the boy thought to himself. 
 
"Better give it a go, may not be a terrible idea to learn it,"  he would tell himself as he flicked the box open and grabbed a needle, and stuck the thread through.  He started haphazardly sewing the gash up and tugging the two chunks of skin together and lacing it up nice and tight.  Now the tricky part.  Chakra control,  This wasn't his strongest suit preferring to weave the Yin chakra and make illusions, never anything of substance.
 
He would hold his hand over the now sewed up wound and copy what the instructor was doing, she made it look so easy, he was lucky to even get a little green spark.  He concentrated harder and felt the healing come off of his hand as it started healing the cut, however just as that started he began losing control of it and the chakra dissipated only fixing half of it.
 
"Well, that should cut it, I think I know it well enough, not like I'll ever use it," the boy would say to himself setting the supplies upon the ground and going back to his leaning position against the wall.  His hands now behind his head, very desperately needing to regain some stamina and take a small nap.  So that would be precisely what he would do

Making his way back to his desk, Taiyo passes his clone who poofs away in white smoke, having fulfilled its purpose. After reaching the desk, he stops there to listen as Akihana Akari explains the next task. His hands ball into fists and relax again repeatedly. In preparation for performing hand seals, he flexes his finger muscles.

"Whatever's next, I can bang it out no problem. Ninjutsu, genjutsu, or taijutsu. All technique's are science. Whether their basis is in chemistry, physics, biology, or engineering, every jutsu has a practical explanation. To understand that practical nature is to understand the jutsu and how it works." He thinks, watching as Akihana does away with the light board and opens up a medical kit. "As long as I have that down, I can perform the jutsu with no more than a few attempts."

Upon registering her welcome to receive a medical box, Taiyo is brought out of his thought process and switches his focus onto the current situation.

"Oh, a medical jutsu." He acknowledges with a slight smile, walking around his small wooden desk. Taiyo reaches the front desk and  places two hands onto a random medical kit. It is white, like the others, and sports a red cross on its lid. He brings it back to his desk, placing it onto the surface and opening it up. "Previously, I had learned the basics of this technique. The chakra is used to increase blood flow in the area of the injury. That way, it scabs over easier more quickly. Afterward, the healing process can begin faster. I performed the technique on myself, in fact."

Lifting the body part up and out of the white box, Taiyo takes note of the contents within it. Other than the fake lower leg and foot which he had just removed, there is an ample roll of gauze, a medium sized bottle of rubbing alcohol, a small medical ninjutsu manual, adhesive tape, a splint, antiseptic wipes, latex gloves, a blanket, and tweezers. None of the items are of any immediate concern to Taiyo. He, as a result, leaves the excess equipment in their places and closes the medical box. The realistic lower leg and foot are in his hands and he watches as Akihana performs her medical ninjutsu. Knowing the basics of the technique helps so that he does not need to think about the basics before making any attempts at the jutsu.

"My body part has multiple deep cuts." He notes, looking down at the leg and placing his hand upon the artificial skin. The gashes are indeed deeper than the average cut, the flesh exposed to the outside air. Some seem to be thin, inflicted by a shuriken of katana, and others are wider, inflicted by a kunai or axe. All of them, however, are equal in severity. Each would bleed profusely if left untreated and he or she who suffered the injury would die of a deficiency of the vital fluid of life. "I can only wonder what kind of confrontation the shinobi or kunoichi who would sustain this injury may have found him or herself in. Definitely not a spar. These attacks look as if they were performed with the intent to kill. This is what a medical ninja out in the field faces during a skirmish. It looks like the role a medic plays is crucial to his or her team's mission. Imagine if a member where gravely injured. Without a ninja with medical ninjutsu abilities, team members may die and the team itself may fail its mission."

Taiyo's hands glow with a green-blue aura and he glides the palms over the cuts one at a time, moving to the next one only after the current opening has been healed.

"It's a good thing that I have taken it upon myself to become versed in the art of medical ninjutsu. Even though Hoshigakure's most powerful ninja are medics, more are always needed. In fact, a good team is supposed to possess a master medic for situations like those which I described." He lifts his hands to examine the injury and moves on to the next cut, deeper and wider than the last. As such, more time is necessary for Taiyo's medical ninjutsu to take its full effect on it. "Our kage himself is a medical specialist. It makes me proud to be following in his footsteps."

Lifting his hands for a final time, Taiyo examines the leg. With the cuts, having vanished under his chakra, have healed well. Taking the leg into his left hand and opening the box with his right, he places the body part where it had been prior. The kit is taken back to the table it had originally been retrieved from.

"The makings of a fine medical ninja."

Spoiler:

The class had been moving so fast to the point where Dusk had almost lost track of what had been going on. First they were learning ninjutsu and next they had made it to Medical Ninjutsu, which had in all honesty made him a little interested. Because of this he began to pay close attention or more exactly a new set of attention to Akihana as she deployed out the medical supplies which he had looked at weird for a moment before touching each of the utensils he had at his disposal. Picking up each one and examining them with the most precise of details, he murmured to himself as he put the m down and continued to listen to the lesson that his teacher had been giving out, oddly enough he had been following it every step of the way.

When it was time for each student to try and attempt to heal their "battle" wounds, Dusk examined the body from every possible angle and side until he had knew the injury each way. Of course since he had no medical knowledge and only knew of a few things about the human body, he could only make assumptions but luckily he was good at making guesses. With a soft flow of his chakra he attempted to change it from feeling offensive to a more support based, calming the storm within his mind and allow his body to help instead of harm. In that moment his hand would glow a soft green as he slowly began to heal the wound. With time and slowly moving his hand the wound healed of course after he was done he flopped into his seat and watched everyone else do what they did to make things work.

"OH uh. I forgot.... Rei. onward!" In an instant the twins were gone, Ash zipping out the door for no apparent reason and reial stopping just long enough to appologize to Aki before following. \

Watching as the twins Ash and Rei scurried out of the room, Taiyo also remembers his own duties eat his home. There are things that must be done before he departs from the house on yet another leave.

"You know, I need to get going as well." He comments, making his way towards the door through which he entered the room. "I should get going. Thank you for the instruction, Akihana, and I apologize for my inability to remain here. Have a fine day though."

Bowing to the jounin at the door before continuing, he turns and exits the room.
