Sakana learns water prison.

Sun Jan 29, 2017 6:46 pm

One day in the village Sakana was reading his his Mejin book that he recently found. Inside it he flipped through the various different water techniques, making notes on the ones he was interested in. Sakana got to a page titled “Water Prison Jutsu” Sakana was intrigued by the name but sadly could not read about it because the page had been torn, the part that had been torn was the instructions on learning the technique. The history part of the Jutsu said this was a B rank technique that could trap your opponents in water and they would not be able to move. Sakana had not given up hope on learning the jutsu just yet though. He decided he would ask his new friend Komori if he knew it. He sent a letter to Komori’s house that said, “Hi Komori, this is Sakana Meijin and I'm asking if you know the Water Prison Jutsu. If you do can you come by the lake tomorrow and help me learn it? Thanks.” Sakana sent the letter and hoped for the best.

The next day Sakana went down to the lake and waited for a while. He eventually got bored of waiting and he decided to go swimming. Sakana made some water clones and they were all having races and played games in the water. Sakana figured he'd swim until Komori got there.

Komori woke up early one morning and followed his normal breakfast routine et cetera et cetera. Upon walking outside his house, he was met with a rather unfamiliar sight, as the small indicator stood up on the mailbox which belonged to the twins. They were not used to receiving any sort of mail whatsoever, as they either kept to themselves or happened to interact with other genin on training grounds and such, by circumstances so coincidental that it is almost like it was planned or something. So when Komori read the letter which Sakana had left, he was relieved to experience a plan for once. He loved being a freer spirit than most, tending to take things as they came to him, but a plan did not hurt to have every once in a while. Komori walked back inside, as he still needed to get dressed. The shameless genin had walked outsider e his house in nothing by undergarments and decided he should probably don proper apparel if he was going to be teaching a jutsu today. Upon reaching the training ground, Komori spotted Sakana swimming in the water with multiple other Sakanas. He thought to himself, Those can’t be shadow clones, he isn’t strong enough yet. So what could they be? He quickly dispersed into a puddle and snuck towards the lake, merging with the water source. He would then mess around with the Sakanas, occasionally poking at their legs and backs, which would continue until the less experienced genin would leave the water, and disperse whatever form of clones that he had conjured.

After an hour of so of playing in the water Sakana walked up to land to dry off. He was getting annoyed that something was poking into him. He did not think it was a fish but he did not know what else it could be. Once he got out of the water he dispersed his water clones in the lake because they were tired. Sakana dried off then did not know what to do because Komori had not arrived there yet. Sakana then laid under his favorite tree and went back to reading his Meijin book. He thought about going home because he figured Komori would never show up.

Ugh, this guy’s no fun. Komori unmerged his body from the water, instead reforming on the surface immediately using the water walking technique in order to prevent himself from having to swim. “You really couldn’t tell that that was me?” Komori said, as he thought that the genin had witnessed his hydrification technique before. Perhaps not at the water merging level, but nonetheless he should have picked up on the prodding that Komori had put him through. Without waiting for a response to his immediate question which was rather rhetorical, Komori started speaking again. “I got your letter - nice touch by the way. Really old fashioned. I admire it. - and I’m here to inform you that: One, I know the water prison technique, and Two, I’m here to help you learn it. I’m ready to start whenever you are.”

At first Sakana did not even notice Komori rise out of the water. His body formed from that water. Sakana thought that was kinda cool but he would not tell Komori that. So Sakana put the book next to him, and pulled himself off the ground. He slowly got up and walked over to Komori. While he was walking over he was processing what Komori had said. Komori had just told him that he knew the water prison jutsu and he would teach Sakana it. Sakana was excited and told Komori he was ready to train. The excitement glowed on Sakana’s face as he waited for Komori to start teaching him the water prison jutsu.

“First things first, you need a target.” Komori used the clone seal in order to bring out another shadow clone. The clone would then appear in a puff of smoke next to the original Komori. “Next, a water source. You’ll be using that lake. I, on the other hand, am an amazing shinobi who can create his own water source.” Komori then activated the handsign seal that consisted of Bird → Rat → Ox → Monkey → Rat → Snake. The sky grew darker as grey clouds formed in the air above them. “Sorry about this.” The heavens opened up above as a downpour of rain ensued, soaking both of them entirely. Sakana had gone for a swim earlier, but had probably dried off by now. Oh well. Pools of water infused with Komori’s chakra began to gather around the varying levels of elevation in the ground. Komori stood in the center of a large puddle with his shadow clone next to him. “Okay,” Komori started stating as he turned his head toward Sakana. He began shouting so that the other genin could hear him over the rain. “Here’s the handseals you need to use! And pay attention because there’s quite a few!” The Hozuki genin would then go on to sign Snake → Ram → Horse → Hare → Ram → Horse → Hare → Snake and finally Ox before clapping his hands together. Water from the puddle traveled up Komori’s body, racing up the side of his leg and down the length of his arm until it reached his palm. The water then began to move outward as the beginnings of a bubble were formed around the body of his shadow clone. His clone instinctively began to hold his hands out against the bubble in a defensive manner, as he was soon entirely enveloped in a sphere of water, which still had Komori’s hand making contact. “Something important to remember is that you have to keep contact with the water prison.” Komori then dispersed the rain as he still held his shadow clone in the prison. “Now you try it. I saw that earlier you had a clone technique, so try using it on one of them.”

Sakana was impressed by the technique because it has great offensive capabilities. But he was also scared because it looks like that without caution it could drown his opponents and he couldn't have that while training. Sakana then thought about the hand signs Komori showed him Snake → Ram → Horse → Hare → Ram → Horse → Hare → Snake and finally Ox. This will be the longest jutsu he'd ever learned so he took a couple of minutes to work out the hand signs. Once he felt like he had memorized them he had to move to the next step. He created a water clone and realized he couldn't just put the clone through that he had to explain to the clone the new technique he was learning and that he needed his clone to trust him. The clone said he trusted Sakana so Sakana explained how the technique was going to work and that the clone would be trapped in a water prison but not to worry had Sakana will pull the clone out before he gets hurt. So once Sakana and the clone were ready Sakana was about to begin.

Sakana got into his ready stance while his clone made his way to standing on top of the water. Sakana then performed the started to perform the hand signs. Snake → Ram → Horse → Hare → Ram → Horse → Hare → Snake and finally Ox. All this did was create a small amount of water beginning to wrap itself around the clone’s feat. The clone looked confused and Sakana explained that he might require a few tries. Sakana tried over and over again until he formed a dome around the water clone. Sakana put his hand on the dome to keep it from falling apart. He then took his hand out to release the clone.

Sakana figured that having to keep contact with the dome is not that efficient. Because he would be open to attacks from all other areas of his body. He would he open. Sakana spent a few minutes thinking of a way to overcome this challenge and finally he had an idea. He summoned another water clone and explained that Sakana would perform the jutsu but the clone would put his arm inside to maintain the dome so Sakana could fight elsewhere. Sakana got back up on the dry land and went to try the Jutsu again. He got into his ready stance and did Snake → Ram → Horse → Hare → Ram → Horse → Hare → Snake and finally Ox. This created a prison around the first clone while the second clone put his arm in the dome. After about a minute of them testing to make sure the dome held Sakana released the two clones causing the water prison to fall. Sakana was satisfied with his progress on this jutsu.

“See, now you’re getting the hang of it.” A lot quicker than I did anyways. Komori admired the genin’s quick deduction to apply the technique to a clone, as he himself had done long ago when he had originally trained for the technique. Although Sakana seemed to treat his water clones better Komori had treated his shadow clones. He thought back to when he had been practicing this same technique on a shadow clone, and Lilly had walked up to him, effectively distracting him, which broke his concentration and led to the shadow clone drowning. Oops. Komori smiled at the thought. “Well, Sakana, it seems like you have this technique down. Did you have any other questions?”

He watched Komori’s face as he looked to be in deep thought of something else. Sakana packed his stuff and was about to head out. As he was walking Komori seemed to snap back into focus and asked him a question. Sakana didn't have any other questions so he thanked Komori for teaching him the jutsu and he went on his way home.

Komori was happy to help Sakana, even if he seemed to be the only other genin that he had met, aside from Senshi, who he did not feel he could mess with as much as he liked to. Senshi scared him. Anyways, Komori was happy to have spent his day training with Sakana. At this thought, Komori dispersed in a puff of smoke. He had been busy that day, and did not want to let the other genin down by not showing up. The reason that Komori had only used one shadow clone earlier, was that the one that had been training with Sakana was a shadow clone itself. Truth be told, Komori had been more active than usual lately, and as such, had to spread himself rather thin. Luckily the shadow clone still retained the memories of the event, which Komori, who was roughly less than a half mile away, learned of immediately after its dispersal.
