Mind over Matter

A focused mind, that is what one needs to overcome a genjutsu. At least that is what the Uchiha clan taught a people known for their ability to weave illusions directly in the minds of their opponents. Usually the sharingan in its awakened state would be enough to overcome a sight based genjutsu the perceptual abilities of the doujutsu spotting the fragments of the illusion where the caster did not enough detail. However, for others using a seal and a pulse of chakra was enough to see through it.

One had to learn how to see through an illusion first however before they could break it. Common genjutsu like the things like cat genjutsu were ones that could easily be seen through, as who would believe a giant cat was real. The ones that presented the most trouble were the ones that were believable like an illusory forest while you were in a forest that caused you to continually go in the wrong direction and then running into an ambush by the caster and their friends.

Focusing her mind and creating a tiger seal Brooke would flood chakra throughout her body. What little time she had spent at the academy she was thankful for, because they had at least taught her how to mold chakra. While she had gained no knowledge of actual jutsu she understood the basics of how to wield some of them.

One more try, I guess. The girl would think clearing her mind and forming the tiger seal. She would once again flood energy through her body and then sustain it. Unfortunately, at this time Brooke had no one to use a genjutsu on her to see if her use of the releasing technique was working. All she could do was guess that the tingling feeling she got when she flooded her chakra system was what was needed to break a genjutsu.

As she thought the technique a success she would take a short nap. It was believed that memory was improved if one took a rest after gaining information. Finding a place to lay she would cover herself up with a blanket and drift off. As she slept she dreamt of the day they had learned about genjutsu at the academy. The instructor used a simple genjutsu on each student and attempted to have the students break out none of them could however because it was before they were taught how to break it.


Once the instructor called on Brooke she approached and as the genjutsu took over her mind and she saw the mist and man in a mask she just stood there unsure of what to do. This time however she had a plan. Using the tiger seal and flooding chakra through her body the illusion was broken, and she would wake up the dream having ended. Well it works in my mind at the very least. Standing up the girl would roll up her blanket and store it, she had to travel for a bit and find someone to help train her eyes.
