Mook's Training

When Mook arrived at the academy he was overwhelmed with the amount of information that was being taught to him, all of his class mates were the spawn of great ninjas but here was measly Mook the son of a farmer. Although what Mook took out of the information he gained was that in order to become stronger he was going to have to move up the ranks of ninja, he was going to have to become a Genin. Mook did some research on the Genin exam and found out in order for him to become a Genin he would have to gain considerable strength and learn the Clone and Transformation Jutsu. So Mook headed to the library in search of some information on how he was going to learn these Jutsu, he picked up a book called 'Basic Jutsu' and headed off the the training grounds for some practical training. 

It was a beautiful day outside, the sun was shining on the training grounds with no clouds in sight to obstruct its rays. It was the perfect day for some outdoor training. Before Mook started trying to learn the Jutsu he decided to do some physical training as he felt that he was lacking physically compared to some of his peers. The first thing he would focus on was his strength, he scoured his surroundings trying to look for some equipment he could use to train with. In the distance he saw some monkey bars, a perfect place to train his upper body. Mook had done some physical labour in the past, but he knew nothing he had done before would ever compare to the demands of the ninja lifestyle. He first started with some static hangs on the monkey bars, hoping to strengthen his shoulder joint and back muscles. He went through a routine of hanging for 1 minute and resting for 1 minute, and did this 10 times. Now that he felt nice and warmed up he did some pull-ups using the bars, this time he did 5 sets of 10 repetitions. By the time he finished those he was already feeling pretty spent. It was at this point he decided to take a small rest and read some of the content from the book he had picked up. 

While reading through the book Mook realised that there was much for him to learn, Mook's mum was a teacher not a ninja so everything she had taught him up to this point was just useless knowledge. After reading for a while he decided that he would try and learn about the 2 Jutsu that he needed to be able to execute in order to become be promoted to Genin; the Clone, and Transformation Jutsu.

Clone Technique: A ninjutsu that creates an intangible copy of one's own body, without any substance. Since the clone itself doesn't have the ability to attack, and thus can only be used to confuse the enemy, it is mainly used in combination with other ninjutsu. It's a basic technique, but depending on one's ingenuity, it can be used effectively. The clones may not dissipate when they come into contact with something. The user creates at max two replicas of them self that mirror their actions, these clones are not solid and are just projections of the original.

Hand Signs: Ram → Snake → Tiger


Transformation Technique: The transformation technique is considered to be among the more difficult E-ranked techniques, since it requires constant emission of chakra while mentally maintaining the form. On top of that, the user would be, most likely, interacting with the environment. This puts mental strain on an inexperienced ninja. Thus the best way to determine if it is indeed a transformation is to cause this strain upon the user; though this is of course not always successful,Allows the ninja to take any form they picture in their head, they cannot exceed human sized.


Hand Signs: Dog → Boar → Ram


After reading as much as he could, Mook decided it was time to put his new found knowledge into practice. He started with the Clone Jutsu, he had already learn all of the hand signs during one of his classes so he was familiar with the ones needed for the Jutsu. Mook calmed himself down with a few deep breaths, inhaling the the nose and exhaling through the mouth, once he was calm he closed eyes imagining his chakra flowing though him like his Sensei had taught him. When he was ready he opened his eyes, Mook felt immense concentration, he was ready to perform the Justu. Ram, Snake, Tiger, Mook made the 3 hand seals and shouted "Clone Jutsu!". A puff of smoke appeared and through it Mook could see a figure, but whatever the figure was it sure as hell wasn't human, his first attempt at the jutsu was a failure. But Mook was determined to succeed so he calmed himself down again, and without hesitation Ram, Snake Tiger, "Clone Jutsu!", another puff of smoke appeared, this time what came out was a mirror image of Mook in every way. He had successfully executed the Clone Jutsu. Mook was overwhelmed with happiness and excitement, my first ever justu he thought to himself. Mook was no longer unconfident about his abilities as a ninja, this was his first step in him reaching his goal, he had a new found motivation and was ready to train even harder. He then decided while he was still on a high that he would try and learn the Transformation Jutsu. Mook knew this was a more difficult Jutsu than the Clone Jutsu so he gave himself a few minutes to prepare himself. 


A few minutes had passed and Mook was ready to try the Jutsu, he thought in his head what he would like to transform into and the only person he could think of was his mother. Maybe it was due to his overall excitement about his training and how he couldn't wait to tell his mum how he had been progressing. Nevertheless Mook did the same as he did when performed the Clone Jutsu, he closed his eyes and took some deep breaths. This time the hand seals were different, it was Dog, Boar, Ram. When Mook was ready he made the 3 hand seals and yelled "Transformation Jutsu", and a puff of smoke appeared. After the smoke had passed he looked down at his hands, they were that of a female. He could feel his mums long hair and he was wearing exactly what she wore everyday, the Jutsu had worked. Mook was amazed with the work he had done today and decided to make it a day, deciding that from know on he was going try even harder when training and listen even more when in class.
