Minds in the Sound [Rank Training]

Xarnt

[This training is obviously for the Rank, but il be doing the Jutsu listed bellow at the same time. Sorry, I Train in First Person, It let's me add more description. Also, Anything written in Italics, That is my thinking to myself IC]
[Name: Kankaku Gyoutai [Sensory Delay]
Type: Genjutsu
Rank: C
Requirements: None
Description: This jutsu operates on the principle of "the hand is quicker than the eye", a phrase the user will often say just before activating it. It delays the target's sensory perceptions by one second, making it seem as though time has paused. The pause is only one second long, so it seems as though it never really happened. The user will then continue the battle, but the opponent will think the user is one place, while they were there a full second before. This allows the user to usually get in two or three hits before the target becomes aware of the delay. After this the target might realize it is Genjutsu and use Genjutsu Kai, or they might not realize it and just try to anticipate one second in advance]

I had finally found the energy to crawl out of bed as the warm sun gentle beat down upon my face from through the open window to my right. I rolled over and stirred slightly as I heard children playing outside the window. After a few minutes I rolled onto my back and sat up, bolt upright. Come on Zarn, you need to get your arse into gear if you want Zieg to give you anything important to do, as I thought this I rolled out of bed to the left hand side. I walked around my room, getting myself dressed and ready ECT. It took around 10 minutes before I exited the Clan Home, heading out to find somewhere to train.

As I walked I didn't look around too much, I’d seen it all before, there are tree's, grass and people that are to scared to look me in the eye, it was the same as always. I walked and thought to myself, reflecting on everything that had happened in Oto lately, the amazing feats the nin had performed. I’ll be one of them next time I thought to myself as it crossed my mind once more that I had been too young to serve my village in the previous wars, but I will be ready next time, I know I would be. As I walked I heard laughter, I turned on the spot and saw a group of small children. They were playing in a small field hidden by some trees, I turned to them as they looked up at me, I smiled, and they apologized, bowed and ran away. As I ran I thought to myself, they fear me because I am strong, the fact they run makes them weak. I cannot waste my time dwelling on these matters.

I walked slowly into the now vacant field and looked around, it was basically empty. It was a clearing of grass in a basic circle, surrounded by trees with a small lake in one corner. I walked into the middle of the clearing and bent down, pulling a scroll from my pocket. As I sat I read down upon the scroll, Kankaku Gyoutai. I read over the scroll what must have been 50 times, memorizing the chakra patterns involved in it, memorizing the hand seals required and the exact requirements and effects of this Jutsu. After around 15 minutes in my quiet reflection, I slowly stood to my feet, feeling the warmth of the sun gentle breaking through the leave of the trees, brushing my skin gentle.

I slowed my breathing down to a very slow, controlled pace, lowering my heart rate. After several seconds I slowly moved my hands down into the required hand seals for the technique, As I did this, I looked at a small bunny that was staring at me across the field, I directed my Chakra directly at it and spoke, 'The Hand is Quicker then the Eye'. I sent my chakra out towards the bunny, hopefully containing the Jutsu.

As I felt the tear of the Jutsu leaving my body and heading at the bunny, I bent my knees down low, grunting slightly at the pain that burned in my ribs due to the injury all those years ago. Once I was crouched I lunged out, fully extending my body in the air. I hit the floor with a gentle, graceful thud [Amazing for someone of my size]. As I hit the floor I did a front roll, landing back up onto my feet with another gentle thud. This whole process took half a second at the most.

I spun my head up in excitement, looking for the bunny, expecting it to still be staring were I once was. I smiled as I raised my head, once I saw the bunny, that smile faded. It was starting directly at me, the Jutsu had failed. F**king Rabbit, I thought to myself as I spun a kunai out from my pouch into my hand, throwing it at the bunny with lightning speed. It didn't even have time to react, the kunai slammed into the bunny rabbit, sending it flying back into the dirt, dead.

I slowly walked over to the rabbit, lowering myself down to the floor with a gentle groan. I gripped down onto the hilt of the kunai with one of my mammoth hands, gentle twisting it from its place and removing it as I did so. I slowly drew myself up to full height. I sighed to myself slowly and looked around the field, spotting another bunny. I smirked to myself sadistically before speaking gentle, 'Lets hope you’re more lucky, little friend'.

This is ridiculous, I can do this. I stood in silence for a few moments, feeling the gentle breeze ruffling my jacket against me skin. I watched the bunny as it start to move slowly away from me, apparently I wasn't interesting anymore. I quickly sent my out, throwing the Kunai again. It left my hand gracefully, slicing through the air cleanly with such speed a faint whistle could be heard. The kunai slammed into the ground in front of the rabbit that stopped in its tracks and span its small body back around to face me once more.

I started to breath slower, I needed to get this right. I gentle closed my eyes and began to think back to the scroll. I thought back to the section on the required Hand-Seals, I brought the memory back up to the forefront of my mind, picturing the seals I Need. I focused on the first one on the scroll, as I did this I slowly moved my hands from my side, up into the first of the seal's slowly, perfectly. I let out a deep sigh then continued this process through the rest of the hand seals.

As I came to the last seal, I opened my eyes to check on the rabbit, it was still sitting staring at me, blinking every half second or so. As I sent my hands down into the last of the required seals, I opened my mouth and uttered the words, 'Kankaku Gyoutai'. I instantly leapt forward at the rabbit, landing around 2 cm's in front of it. I kept my eyes glued to it the entire time, it didn't move and for the first time, it had stopped blinking. After around a second had passed, it moved forward slightly and then froze, as if in a state of shock. It quickly looked up at me, squealed and then ran off through the tall grass.

I smiled to myself, Thank Christ. I was content with my effort, I slowly turned away from the field and walked over to the edge of the lake. As I reached it, I sat down on a small rock at the edge of the lake, kicking my sandals off my feet as I did so. I slowly twisted my large frame around, dangling my feet into the water. As I did so I felt the hair on my leg stand on edge as the cool water chilled through to the bone. I let out a deep sigh and slowly began to relax the muscle throughout my body. After a few minutes I slid down the rock so I was sitting on the floor, leaning against the rock with my feet still floating lazily in the water. I shut my eyes and began to listen to the gentle noises of nature around me.

After around 15 minutes my mind had reached a state of peace, a rare state for me. My mind had blended into my surroundings. I could pick out precise birds in the trees, even the small forest mice in the grass. I was calm, until I heard it. It was a whistling, almost in-audible. For a moment I sat in thought, I know that sound, then it hit me [Figuratively, Not literally]. I rolled quickly forward, diving straight into the small lake, shuddering as I felt the cool rush take control of my body as I pierced the near icy water. I span my frame around underwater with difficulty, just in-time to see the arrow slam into the rock I had been leaning against, right were my head was only moments ago.

Shit, what the fuck can I do here.., my chest started to pain, I realized I was almost gasping for air. I quickly kicked twice, breaking the surface. I knew this was a mistake, I hadn't even made a plan. As I surfaced, I quickly gripped onto the edge of the river and hauled myself out as my mammoth hands squelched down into the mud-soaked grass. I landed gracefully onto my feet, not even causing a noise. I felt adrenalin running through me, I went to dive for the rock until I heard it, 'Do it and Die.'. I froze and slowly turned my frame around to face were the noise had come from. As I did this I looked down at my hand, surprised to find myself not shaking, I was even more surprised once I realized my heart-rate was down, I was calm.

I looked up to saw a Mountain of a man starting back at me, gripping a bow and arrow. He was at least 7ft tall of solid muscle. He was wearing a beat up leather chest guard and leather leg guards, all black. He had a bald head and a scar there stretched across his right cheek from his ear down to chin. I quickly searched my eyes over his body, there was no Head-Band, and He was no shinobi. He spoke again, slowly, his voice was calm and placid yet strong, 'Easy there son, Drop the belt and the sword and walk 2 meters towards me'.

I had no choice, I had to comply. I slowly reached my right hand down to my utility belt, and slowly unbuckled it, keeping my left hand in there air at all times, showing I was complying. The belt dropped to the ground with a small Thud. I slowly moved my right hand across my chest, to my back, gripping the Hilt of my sword. I slowly drew the sword and then dropped it to the ground. I smiled at the man and slowly lowered my hands down to my sides and I walked to paces forward.

Ohk Zarn, time to think. You’ve got no weapons, only a rig psycho sticking an arrow in your face. As I thought, I saw it, the kunai I had used to startle the rabbit was sitting on the floor next to the man, nestled gentle in the grass. I slowly raised my head, staring into the mans eyes. He raised the bow to my eye level and smiled. I took a step forward and began to speak, 'Look mate, do you know who I am? I'm sure there's just been a miss-under....' As I took the step, I slid my foot back hard into the mud, causing me to fall to the ground hard. I hit the ground with a loud thump, rolling over onto my side with my back to the man. The move was done on purpose, but I didn't expect it to hurt this hard. I quickly glanced down to see a small rock sticking into my chest and a small trickle of blood.

'Oi, Get up son', I smirked to myself as I heard the concern in the man's voice, he was worried. So, Maybe he doesn’t want to kill me, I could feel his eyes looking at my back, This was my chance. As he was distracted by the fall and whilst his eyes were glued to my back, I began the hand-seals. I quickly sent the chakra down through my body to my mind as I completed the hand seals. I was ready, On the last seal I spoke, 'It’s a shame the blade is faster then the eye, Old fool'.

As soon as the words left my mouth, I rolled my massive body to the left, towards the man. As I did so I quickly glanced up, the man was still, as if frozen, Kankaku Gyoutai has worked like a charm. I smirked to myself as I snatched up the lone Kunai on the floor next to the man, with my Right hand. As soon as I felt the cold steel of the Kunai in my hand I felt it, the ruthlessness everyone bar few seemed to view as a bad thing, I was in control. I rolled up to my feet, slamming my foot into the mans right knee, buckling him down to my height. I then sliced the Kunai into the man's stomach as I wrapped my Left arm around the man's shoulder's, holding him too me. As soon as the Kunai pierced deep into the flesh of the man's stomach, he awoke.

All of that within a second, I guess I can't complain. I felt hot air brush over my neck as he gasped in ignorance of how this had happened. I squeezed down with bone-crushing strength on his shoulders' using my left arm. I leant my head close to his ear so my face was resting against his, I whispered to him, 'Goodbye'. As I said this, I felt his mouth open as if he were to scream, He didn't get the chance. I instantly ripped the Kunai up through his stomach tissue, up through the ribs, snapping each of them as I went and the finally up to the base of his throat. I ripped the Kunai out of his neck and moved my body gracefully to the left, the man's corpse dropped to the ground next to me. I glanced down to the floor, a pool of blood had already formed at my feet, and I reached up my chest, removing the rock. I began to walk away from the body, to the other side of the field. Stupid weak Bastard I thought to myself as I did the one last thing that needed to be done, I smiled.

I walked over to the other side of the field, I knew that it would be normal for me too be lost in thought, even scared about what had just happened, but I wasn't, I was in a way, Happy. I reached the other side of the field and sat down on a log beneath a tree. I listened out to the birds and nature around me once more, before deciding it was time to start heading back to the village.

I slowly stood up, the bones in my back cracking as I do so. I slowly start to walk back towards the village. As I walk I look up at the sky and think to myself, Such a beautiful day, It’s a shame it had to be tainted, I gave a trademark sigh and continued on my way. As I walked I shut my eyes briefly, enjoying the feeling of the sun beating gentle down upon my skin.

As I came near the village I was jerked back to reality by the sound of a scream. My eyes snapped open and I stood dead still, determining were the scream came from. I heard it again, this time determining the direction. I span on my heel with ease and began sprinting towards the noise down a path through the trees, probably not the smartest of my ideas. After running for at full speed for close to 2 minutes I found myself near a small shack in the trees. I ducked down to a crouching position and looked over at the house.

It was made of logs for the walls with a stone roof, It was surrounded via trees and looked as if it was deffinently lived in, it looked well kept. I heard another scream, I slowly began to walk towards the house, watching my feet as I went, carefully not trying to step on any twigs or dead leaves. I got within 2 meters of the window when I felt it, a hard hit to the side of my head, then darkness.

I woke up in a small room, there was a table and chairs in one corner, a fireplace against the wall opposite of me and I was on a small bed against a wall. I went to sit up, to find I had been tied to the bed by my ankles and wrists. Armatures I thought to myself as I shifted my waist, causing much pain to my wrists and ankles, were I pulled out of my kunai from my pouch. I then sliced through the ropes that binded me down, slightly nicking my left wrist as I did so.

I slowly climbed off the bed, crouched down and crept towards the door. I peered under the bottom of it, I saw another pair of feet binded to a chair and one pair in combat boots walking around. I slowly stood up slightly, reaching for the door handle. I grasped it with my right hand and took a deep breath, if this make a noise, this gets nasty. If it’s silent, he dies.. I slowly turned the handle, there was a tiny click. I froze when I heard it and listened, the man didn't react. I smiled and opened it slightly.

I could see the man in the corner, He was small and wearing green cameo gear with a sword strapped to his back and an arm-band on his right arm. Fuck, He's either a Shinobi or he's killed one, either way, this isn't good. I glanced over to the chair. There was a girl with her feet strapped and her arms behind her back, presumable tied up. She was wearing a torn night-gown, Alright, she's in sleepwear, she's the owner. I watched the man walk back and forward, checking out with windows. I smiled as I saw him turn around, the arm-band wasn't of a Shinobi-Village, it was simply a bandit signet.

I waited until he had his back to me and was checking the window. I slid the door open silently and threw the kunai. At that moment the man ducked under it, sending a Kunai back at my chest. I heard it cutting through the wind towards me, I rolled to the side, being the cover of the wall and watched the kunai sail past me. I quickly performed the required hand-seals for Kankaku Gyoutai, I quickly rolled back into the room. I saw the man raise his hand with another Kunai, he was too slow. I spoke quickly, 'Too slow, Fool', instantly the man froze as he was.

I send my hand down into my pouch, gripping another Kunai, I sent it out to my hand and quick threw it up at the man neck. It sliced into the back of the mans neck, I heard the sickening sound of the spine snapping under the pressure for the Kunai along with. When the man unfroze, he showed no signs of life, he simply dropped to the floor with a thud.

I stood up to my full height and looked down at the man, He was sprawled out with blood trickling from his neck. I then turned towards the girl who was crying softly. I spoke gentle to her, 'My name is Zarn Itichi, You’ll be ok, and who are you?'

As I knelt down next to the girl I placed my hand gentle on her chin, raising her head so I could look at her face properly. She was beautiful. A sweet/innocent face, with blonde hair and soft fair skin. Her eyes were closed; I assumed she had lost consciousness so I gentle slapped her face. As I did this, something went wrong. Smoke filled the chair were she was meant to be, the kind of smoke only emitted when a clone is dispelled. Oh come on, I rolled quickly to the side and dived for door as extreme pain shot through my chest into my ribs. I landed with thud as my face smashed hard into the floor, blood spurting out from it getting into my eyes, blinding me.

I tried to crawl for the door, pain erupted in my calve muscle in a blast. I dropped down onto my stomach in pain when I heard a soft voice. 'Well, That’s two of my men you’ve killed today, Naughty Naughty', I tried to turn and see the source, only to suffer a weak kick to the ribs for my effort's, directly after which I heard a moan.

As I rolled on the floor I heard footsteps walking towards the other side of the room, probably to check on the corpse of her fallen comrade. Alright, so you’re not having great day, time to harden up. You’ve got something in you’re calf and at least one broken rib and maybe a broken nose. Great Start. Ohk, she has to have a weakness. The Kick, She moans after a kick and used an object when she didn't need to, she can't be good at taijutsu. Avenchly the women walked back into the room, at which point I had readied myself.

I slowly rolled over onto my side with groan, placing my back to her. As I did this I once more, performed the hand-seals for Kankaku Gyoutai whilst sending the last of my chakra down to my hands. As I finished the last hand sign, I heard footsteps coming back to me, This is it. Using the last of my strength I lunged back to my feet, spinning on my left foot to face the women. Once I was facing her I spoke, 'To Slow', as I smiled at her. She suddenly froze as Kankaku Gyoutai took effect.

In this split second I sent my right hand into my pouch, pulling out a kunai. I sent it down at her neck as I sent my left arm around her back to hold her. The kunai and my left arm connected, a smile broke across my face, Relief surged through my body, for yet a second. As I pushed in with the kunai, there was no blood, there was only smoke.

'No' was all I managed to say, I heard movement behind me, I span around and sent the kunai down blindly. I hit something; unfortunately something also hit me, hard.

After around an hour I came too on the floor, As i rolled over and groaning, I looked up and saw the trail of blood leading away from the shack. I sat up and looked the trail down. I sat still for several minutes, listening to the constant thumping in my head, avachly I got up and head back outside. I followed the trail of blood for a short period of time but it ended after a few hundred meters. What a bitch..I thought to myself as i decided to head back towards my feild. As i walked I reached out to my Chakra in my body, there was barley any left and it stung all over when I attempted to accsess it. I smirked to myself as the sun beat down on me, which had gone from a gentle warming to a blistering heat, Hell, I can't bitch too much, I took down 2 of 3.

After several minutes I fianlly arrived back at the small feild were I had killed the first man. At first all seemed as it should, but then i noticed something, the body was gone. As i walked over I saw markers set up by the Oto Law Enforcment force. I smirked to myself cockily This is gona get intrestiong. I slowly walked into the middle of the feild and sent my chakra down to my hands slwoly once more, causing blistering pain all over my body. I slowly started brining my hands up into Seal's as I channeled the chakra. My arms felt like there were 20kg weights attached to them, they were pure lead. It took a few minutes but I finally performed all of the Hand-Seals.
