Day 1: Part One
Knowing His Past: The Sunaton Bloodline

Clock: BUZZZ!!! BUZZZ! BUZZZ!!!

Makoto: Damn clock.

*Makoto awoke in a grumpy mood as usual, he never was much of a morning person. It wasn't that he didn't get enough sleep, it was the realization that every morning he would be the only one in the house.*

Makoto: YAWNNNNN! AHHH!

*Makoto yawned and stretched his little body to it maximum before hopping out of bed and walking to the bathroom for his morning release.*

Makoto: Ahhh that felt good. Now to start the day off right and then cleaning up before I train.

*Makoto made up his bed and changed from his pajamas into his clothes. He wore a see-thru shirt and some gray pants. He put on his favorite trench coat syle jacket and his all black shoes and then walked back into the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face. Makoto brushed his hair walked out the room only to rush back in.*

Makoto: Almost forgot this.

*Makoto picked up his Sunagakure forehead protector and darted back out the room and down the stairs. He cooked a delicious breakfast which was basically cereal and milk. Makoto scarfed down everybite and started his cleaning. He cleaned up the kitchen and picked up one of his fathers old books that he use to read before he died.*

Makoto: Whats this doing down here? Oh well, I'll go put it back.

*Makoto made his way to his fathers office area where he kept all his papers that he use to research. Makoto put the book back on the shelf and then began to walk out. Suddenly, Makoto stopped and looked at his father's desk that hasn't been touched in years. Makoto felt like something was calling to him from the desk, maybe his father was trying to show him something. Makoto walked to the desk and sat in his father's chair. He felt like he was his father. Then Makoto saw something lying on the desk that he has never noticed before. It said "Sunaton Bloodline" and to Makoto's belief, he thought it had something to do with him. Makoto began to read it.*

Sunaton Bloodline Clans:

Sunaton means Sand. The bloodline orginally formed as a genetic mutation as a founder of the earth based clans and a powerful wind based married and produced an offspring.

Few men were seen to use the sand as a weapon, the third kazekage, and the actual on, the fifth, Garaa, were the strongest sand users in history. Rare are sunaton users in the world of shinobis, but feared are those who possess it.

There are no specific families possessing the bloodline. People possessing wind or earth based chakra sometime find an affinity with sand, and reveal the bloodline. Altough there are no families, there are two branches to the use of sand, two advanced bloodline based on either wind or earth based chakra.

Usually, sand users carry their own chakra infused sand in bags, gourd, or any type of container. Using outer sand takes double than usual chakra.

Appearance:

There is no physical change to a sunaton user.

*Makoto's mouth dropped to the floor. He looked at his hands, and right back at the scroll. He began to read more about the jutsu's that he might be able to learn.*

*Makoto quivered with excitement.*

Makoto: Whoa! I have been blessed with a bloodline that I share with the Kazekage. I might be as strong and powerful as he is. Well I guess I better start training then if I want to be like Kazekage-sama.

*And with that said, Makoto went into his room and put on his training gear. He layed out his gear on the bed. He had two ten pound leg weights, four five pound iron rings, a fifty pound rice sack, five kunai that he placed in his kunai holster. Makoto placed a ten pound leg weight on each leg and placed two five pound iron rings on each arm which totaled an extra forty pounds of weight that Makoto was going to carry around. Makoto was going to use the weights for training until the extra weight feels like nothing to him. After putting the weight on, Makoto headed out the house and towards the lake with trees surrounding it. It was time that Makoto learned to how to control his chakra.*

Day 1: Part Two
Chakra Control: Walking on Trees

*As Makoto treaded towards his destination, he could feel the weight doing it's job. He felt tired half way from his starting point and the lake, but the thought of being like Kazekage-sama fueled his determination. After thirty minutes Makoto reached the end of his journey, and as quick as he could he took of the weights and fell down.*

Makoto: Sigh...that was harder than I thought. Now lets start the chakra training.

*Makoto started to mold as much chakra as he could so he could get his juices flowing. He started by trying to channel chakra to the souls of his feet. He never really dabbled in this type of training before so he start off rocky. First, Makoto channeled chakra to his feet and shot it out causing his body to fly in the air a couple feet and making him fall backwards. Then he tried it again and maintained it for a couple of minutes, but like last time he ended up on his butt because he got to hasty.*

Makoto: I know I can do this. I just need to relax and take it slowly.

*Makoto knew that relaxation was key to the success of his tree walking training, so he closed his eyes and breathed in thru his nose and out thru his mouth. After he felt his heartbeat lower enough he channeled the chakra to his feet and maintained it like it were his shoes.*

Makoto: Yesss...I did it!!! Now for the tree.

*Makoto walked towards the tree with the confidence that he showed at the academy. He relaxed and channeled chakra towards his feet. He placed his best foot forward and onto the tree. Then he placed his left foot on the tree, Makoto tried to get a balance before he took his next step. He took four steps perfectly and on his fifth step he exerted to much and ended up breaking into the bark of the tree causing a fall that felt like an eternity. Makoto laid on the ground with a smile and soaked up his progress. He knew that he had to get to the top of the tree before sundown, and he just made his first mark. Makoto thought about running up the tree this time. He mold chakra in his feet and took off up the tree.*

Makoto: One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve...and mark.

*Makoto pulled out a kunai and sliced at the tree. Makoto was happy as ever that he tripled the distance on his second try. Makoto felt that he could walk up the tree this time with no problem because he gained some experience from the walk.*

Makoto: I think I can do it now...no...I know I can do it now.

*And with that said, Makoto walked up the tree with the experience of a veteran. He passed up the first mark that he made when he used to much chakra. Soon after, Makoto passed up the cut in the tree that was made from his kunai on his second try.*

Makoto: Tch! Piece of cake!

*Makoto started for the top of the tree. He had his destination in sight and his mind relaxed. A quarter of the way to the top an angry bird flapped it's wings hysterically and started to chirp in Makoto's ears causing him to lose balance and shockingly fall. As he fell, Makoto started to mold chakra into both his feet and his hands and placed them on the tree to slow his fall. He eventually came to a stop about half way up the tree. He released the chakra in his hands and stood horizontaly upon the massive verticle plant pertruding out of the earth, and without wasting anytime Makoto began his walk again. When he reached the domain of the wild bird, Makoto searched for the creature, but it was nowhere in sight so he continued on. Makoto eventually reached the top of the tree in a matter of minutes and stood up on a tree branch. His head stuck out of the top of the tree and Makoto marveled at the sight that he was witnessing. He rejoiced at the progress that was made and looked to the skies to search for the sun. Makoto was pleased to know that he finished just in time to watch the sun lay it's head behind the mountains of Sunagakure.

Makoto: My road to greatness has just began!!!

*Makoto yelled to the heavens above. As Makoto walked his way down the side of the tree he noticed a shadowy figure out of the corner of his eye. When he looked to see who it was, they were gone.*

Makoto: That was weird...oh well, time to get home because Im starving.

*As he put on his weights and walked home, Makoto thought about the gap between him and the Kazekage. He felt a little disappointed that he wasn't strong enough, but then a smile appeared across his face when he thought about the blood that runs thru his veins. He was like the leader of his village and that gave him the belief that he will be as strong as him one day. Makoto sprinted the rest of the way home to try to build up his speed and ended up reaching his house before it got to late. When Makoto got in his he went straight to the kitchen. He opened the refridgerator and drunk some water. After eating his dinner Makoto took off his weights and felt lighter than a feather, but that didn't last long for his body was tired from the training session. Makoto collapsed under all that pressure and landed safely in his bed. His eyes grew heavy and before he fell a sleep, a smile was stuck on his face.

Day 2: Part One
Chakra Control: Walking on Water

Makoto: No...stay away from me...no...nooooooo

*Makoto awoke from his slumber sweaty and breathing hard. He had a nightmare about the day that his parents died trying to save his life. As Makoto washes his face he has a hard time trying to remember the actual killer but all he could remember was white hair and violet eyes.*

Makoto: I will find him and I will KILL him if its the last thing I do!!!

*Makoto made his way back down to the lake after putting on his weights but this time he jogged to his training area.*

Makoto: This is getting easier.

*Just then a kunai came from out of nowhere. Makoto barely got out of harms way when he noticed that the kunai was nowhere to be found. All he seen was a little pile of sand. Makoto didn't pay it any mind, but he did keep his eye out for any suspicious signs of trouble.*

Makoto: That was weird.

*As Makoto stopped at the tree he was training at the day before, he stretched and molded chakra again to his feet but he kept his weights on.*

Makoto: Now I'm going to do it with the forty extra pounds of weight.

*Makoto was as pumped as ever channeling chakra to the soles of his feet. It seemed a little harder than without the weights because of all the pressure being put on his body. Makoto ended up having to exert more chakra to be able to feel a balance between himself, his chakra, and the ground. After Makoto found his sweet spot he started to run towards the tree placing his left foot on it and trotted up the side of the plant. After seven steps he fell down hard, but got back up and went at it again. He molded chakra into his feet and charged at the trunk. Sixteen steps later, Makoto began to tire and his chakra in his feet began to disappear. As Makoto loss his balance and begun to fall backward, he tried his hardest to manuever in the air with the added weight. He was almost safe, but Makoto didn't have enough time to stick his legs out from under his body and he landed right on his back.*

Makoto: Arghhh...shit that hurt! I think I heard something crack, maybe it was my ass. Who knows, but anyways it's time for a little reading.

*Makoto took a break from the climbing to look at the scroll again. He pulled it out of his coat pocket and started to read the jutsus again.*

Makoto: Wow! I'm always overjoyed when I read about the jutsus I'm going to master.

*After a ten minute break, Makoto was back at his tree to finish the last of his level one training. Makoto placed his foot on the tree and started his run. With every step he took it seemed as if it was getting easier and easier. In less time than he thought, Makoto reached the top of the massive obstacle that he has come to call "Makoto's Tree."*

Makoto: It feels good to know that I mastered the tree walking excercise, but now on to bigger and better things.

*After planting his feet back on solid ground, Makoto started to take off his weights again when he felt the presence of a stronger chakra. Makoto looked to his right and then to his left, he also looked behind him but no one was there but him.*

Makoto: I need to relax. Especially for this training.

*Makoto began to take off his coat and his shoes, his pants and his shirt came off also.*

Makoto: Now I read somewhere that to be able to walk on water, you need to constantly mold and exert chakra from your feet to be able to stay afloat.

*Makoto seemed like he knew how his training was going to turn out. He started to mold chakra in his feet like with the tree exercise, but as he put his feet on the water he started to exert chakra from his feet at a constant pace that kept him balanced.*

Makoto: I'm doing it...ha ha I'm doing it...achoo!!!

*At that moment, Makoto let out an extreme sneeze that blow him of his feet and into the water. Makoto tried to swim to dry land, but his foot was tangled up in some kelp or seaweed. This sudden tragedy forced Makoto into situation where he would have to learn how to stand ontop of the water, from within, or he would be destined to drown. Makoto thought quick. He remembered when he was falling out of the tree and to slow down his fall, he channeled chakra to his hands.*

Makoto: That's it!!!

*Makoto molded chakra in both hands and placed them on the surface of the water. He exerted chakra from out of his hands and with all his might pulled his self up from out of the water to break the knot around his ankle. As he pulled up out of the water, he started to focus chakra into his feet again and forced some out of his feet to stand ontop of what looked like his watery grave. As Makoto ran towards the shore he noticed that he was not sinking.*

Makoto: The training with the weights must of worked out as I planned.

*Makoto made it to dry land and laid on his back staring at the sky.*

Day 2: Part Two
Jutsu Basics

*After watching the clouds for about ten minutes, Makoto put his clothes back on. He also put his weights back on and got ready to train his basics. He was going to work on his handseal speed, his ninjutsu, genjutsu, and if he had enough time his taijutsu.*

Makoto: Ok break over, time to train again.

*Makoto made his way towards his coat and pulled out another scroll and started to read it.*

http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m308/yung_irv/Body.gif
Essential to even the most basic jutsu, chakra is mixture of the energy present in every cell of the body and the spiritual energy gained from exercise and experience. Once mixed, it can be channeled through the chakra circulatory system, which is to chakra as the regular circulatory system is to blood, to any of the 361 chakra points on the body. Through various methods, the most common of which is handseals, the chakra can then be manipulated to create an effect that would not be possible otherwise, such as walking on water.

*Makoto nodded his head showing an understanding.*

Makoto: I never realized that chakra was that deep. I mean, I knew that it consisted of a complicated network of things, but nothing like what this says. What else is there to chakra?

*Makoto continued to read the scrolls.*

http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m308/yung_irv/circulation.gif
Depending on the ratio in which physical and spiritual energy is mixed, different types of chakra can be formed.Elemental chakra is the most common product of this, and is used to perform elemental jutsu. The five elemental natures are earth, fire, lightning, water, and wind. Most ninja have a natural affinity to one type of chakra, but have the capacity to create elemental chakra apart from their own affinity. Each element is both stronger and weaker than another. The order is fire, wind, lightning, earth, and water, with each being weaker than the previous and stronger than the next. Water loops back into fire. Additionally, elemental techniques can be countered by techniques of the same element, provided the technique being countered is of equal or lesser power.

*Makoto looked at his hands and smiled. Knowing that he has a natural affinity to wind, he ended up reading it again.*

Makoto: So fire>wind>lightning>earth>water and then it loops back to fire. So I'm stronger than lightning. Cool!!!

*Again, Makoto continued his reading.*

Certain kekkei genkai can also create unique elements, such as wood and ice, through a mixture of the basic elements, which normal ninja are incapable of doing. While some ninja are capable of producing varied types of chakra, they can't do so simultaneously.

Fused Elements:
With an appropriate bloodline, a person can fuse two elements, in order to create a new one. This can ONLY be done by means of a bloodline.

The mixed elements are as follows:

Fire Elements:
Fire + Fire: Combustion
Fire + Water: Steam
Fire + Wind: Poison
Fire + Earth: Magma
Fire + Lightning: Light

Water Elements:
Water + Fire: Steam
Water + Water: Cloud
Water + Wind: Ice
Water + Earth: Wood
Water + Lightning: Shadow

Wind Elements:
Wind + Fire: Poison
Wind + Water: Ice
Wind + Wind: Sound
Wind + Earth: Sand
Wind + Lightning: Magnetism

Earth Elements:
Earth + Fire: Magma
Earth + Water: Wood
Earth + Wind: Sand
Earth + Earth: Metal
Earth + Lightning: Gravity

Lightning Elements:
Lightning + Fire: Light
Lightning + Water: Shadow
Lightning + Wind: Magnetism
Lightning + Earth: Gravity
Lightning + Lightning: Plasma

Combustion - The highest level of fire, causing great explosions
Steam - A form of water, which can cause burns that are even greater then fire
Magma - A form of earth, that is increadible hot and destructive
Poison - A various mixture of smoke in which harms the biological body
Light - The very essence of radiation in which is very bright and can cause illusions
Cloud - The strongest essence of water which can even change the weather
Wood - The very power of plants rising up through the power of chakra
Ice - Another form of water, having the ability to take various shapes and sizes
Shadow - The opposite of Light, in which it essentially is nothing
Metal - The highest level of earth, being a more tangible and stronger substance
Sand - A unique side effect of elemental blending, notable used by Shukaku
Gravity - The very power that effects everything, weighing things down by its power
Sound - The ultimate level of wind jutsu, utilizing an element that is one of the fastest
Magnetism - A power derrived from lightning, causing the movement of metal objects
Plasma - The highest level of lightning, being a very liquidlike type of energy

Makoto: Kekkei Genkai, so thats what I have, a kekkei genkai.

*Makoto thought about the Sunaton scroll that he read. Now he understands that the Sunaton bloodline is a kekkei genkai that he has running thru his veins. His mixture of wind and earth can create another element, Sand.*

Makoto: This is awesome!

*Makoto looked at one more thing from the chakra scroll before getting to his handseal training.*

There are also eight chakra gates.

Makoto: Time for handseals.

Day 2: Part Three
Jutsu Basics

*Makoto rolled up his chakra scroll and placed back in his coat pocket. While his hand was in the deep pocket, Makoto pulled out one more scroll that he was going to use during his training. While he unrolled the handseal scroll he thought about how much this was going to help him out.*

Makoto: With this training I will be able to reach my goals in life and prove my worth to my village of Sunagakure.

*As soon as Makoto finished his thought the scroll's contents were revealed to his sponge-like eyes.*

http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m308/yung_irv/seals2nv.png
There are twelve basic hand seals.
These hand seals include the bird, boar, dog, dragon, ox, tiger, serpent, rat, horse, monkey, hare, and the ram. They are mainly based on the Chinese mythology.

*Makoto understood what he read because he heard from his father before he died. Makoto ended up flashing back to when him and his father were training.*

Father: Now Makoto, I want to tell you about the second most important thing that a shinobi should utilize and that is handseals. Hand seals are as important as chakra. All ninjutsu and genjutsu need hand seals to be performed, but taijutsu doesn't because it simply needs no chakra. The main function of a handseal is similar to that of magic words. Instead of speaking of words to activate a spell, handseals are used to activate the technique, and release all the gathered chakra. handseals stand out for animals, specifically the animals found in the oriental zodiac signs. That's why there are 12 seals, one for each of the 12 years found in oriental zodiacs.

Makoto: Oh ok, I see father.

Father: If the handseals are not performed correctly, the chakra will be released wrong and a different effect will occur, probably failing the jutsu. As a result, handseals need a lot of concentration, or the technique will definately fail.

Makoto: Yes sir...

*Makoto snapped back to reality and stood up. He prepared his mind and body for the rigorous training ahead. As he began his training for the afternoon, Makoto started to feel the burn in his arm muscles.*

Makoto: Huff...this is good training. Bird...boar...dog...dragon...ox...tiger...serp...u mmm damn.

*Makoto forgotten the seal and ended up messing up. This was his fourth time doing this. He started to do it again but this time was different. Makoto closed his eyes and focused.*

Makoto:Bird...boar...dog...dragon...ox...tiger...s erpent...rat...horse...monkey...ummm damn it again. I almost had it that time. Bird...boar...dog...dragon...ox...tiger...serpent. ..rat...horse...monkey...hare...ram. I did it! I did it! I did it!

*Makoto smiled and tried it again and again. He kept on with the training until he completely mastered it. He took a ten minute break and walked to the lake. He washed his face and drunk some water then pulled out a sandwich from his other coat pocket. As he ate his delicious bologna, lettuce, tomatoes, mayonaise, and mustard sandwich he thought about training his ninjutsu and genjutsu with his weights on. Since it was helpful for him to walk up the tree the second time with the weights on, Makoto thought it would help him out in that field also.*

*Makoto's break was over as soon as he finished his snack. The sun was shining high in the sky causing Makoto to sweat a little. He has always been able to withstand the high temperatures of Sunagakure, but with the extreme training that he participating in caused a little perspiration on his forehead underneath his protector. He formed a coulple of handseals and mumbled...*

Makoto: Bunshin no jutsu

*With a puff of smoke swirling around where his clone is suppose to stand, Makoto waited with zen-like patience. After the smoke cleared, Makoto's mouth fell to the floor. His bunshin was completely wrong in every aspect. Not only was his clone on the floor, he had one arm and no head.*

Makoto: ...whoa!!!

*Makoto released the jutsu out of it's misery and continued to practice.*

Makoto: I must of not used enough chakra this time. Maybe on this one.

*Without a second wasted, Makoto started to form a specific set of handseals and shouted...*

Makoto: Bunshin no jutsu

*As he waited for his results, Makoto thought in his head.*

Makoto: Last time I didn't use enough, but this time I exerted more than enough.

*Makoto looked at his bunshin in disappointment. His kunai holster was on the left instead of the right, his forehead protector didn't have the Sunagakure symbol, and his teeth were missing.*

Makoto: Not again!!! Atleast he's on his feet this time.

*Makoto joked about his mistake that he made and after a good laugh, Makoto put his game face back on. Those same handseals were performed and calmly, Makoto spoke the words but this time was different.*

Makoto: Bunshin no jutsu

*Makoto smiled with joy when he seen an identical form of him. The clone had his smile, his village symbol, and his kunai holster was on his right leg. To make sure it wasn't just luck, he performed the clone jutsu another three times forming atleast two more clones each time.*

*Now that he practiced his bunshin no jutsu with his weights on, Makoto started to work on his henge no jutsu. He tried to changed into a person that he was going to make proud one day if he was still alive. His hands formed the seals and a sound came out of his mouth.*

Makoto: Henge no jutsu

*A puff of smoke engulfed Makoto after he finished his jutsu. Walking to the lake, Makoto noticed that he looked nothing like his father. He was disappointed that he messed up the image of his father. As he released the jutsu, Makoto began his second try at the jutsu.*

Makoto: Henge no jutsu...shit!

*From the outburst that Makoto had made after he performed his jutsu would only mean that he failed again. Makoto thought that his jutsu was of poor stature. Again he performed this jutsu another six times before making any progress. Makoto formed some handseals again.*

Makoto: Henge no jutsu

*Makoto looked like his father but he was a little on the hefty side. He performed it again and he looked like his father if you added fifty years. He performed the jutsu once more and from the constant training his arm felt tired. He ended up messing up the last seal and his jutsu bombed. He looked like his father if he was an anorexic shinobi. Makoto needed to calm down and relax so he took a deep breath and exhaled. After performing the handseals he muttered...*

Makoto: Henge no jutsu

*As Makoto stared at the water that reflected the exact image of his father he cried. Makoto missed his father so much and it just brought him to tears when he seen the completed jutsu. Even though he mastered the jutsu and can proceed to train his kawarimi no jutsu, he still can't master his past. After a few moments Makoto pulled out his kunai and ran towards the tree. He jumped up the branches and found a tree limb that was pefect for him to perform the jutsu with. He cut at the branch and kicked when it got weak enough for him to break it off. As it fell to the floor, Makoto jumped out the tree and formed some handseals. It seemed that he jumped into this one literally.*

Makoto: Kawarimi no jutsu

*Makoto ended up switching right on spot. To his disbelief, he performed the jutsu flawlessly. When he landed on the ground and the branch hit the floor, Makoto's smile turned into a frown when his kunai holster fell right next to the branch.*

Makoto: Hmph! I almost had it on the first try. Well this was my favorite jutsu.

*It wasn't that long before Makoto performed it again and mastered it. Makoto jumped in the air and formed his handseals.*

Makoto: Kawarimi no jutsu

*He exchanged spots with the branch and as it fell he noticed that everything was in place. As he watched a branch descend to the ground he formed some more handseals.*

Makoto: Kawarimi no jutsu

*As Makoto floated to the ground he began his to feel light headed. Makoto picked up his coat and began to walk home. It seemed that he didn't have the energy to train anymore. As he walked home, Makoto felt like someone was watching him train. Who it was he had no idea, but he knew that it was someone strong. As he walked into his house, Makoto made his way to his room. Makoto took off his weights and his clothes until he was in his boxers and he walked to his bed. What laid on his bed was the Sunaton scroll that showed the jutsus he can use as a genin. The scroll was opened to a specific jutsu, and it made Makoto scratch his head.*

Makoto: What the hell...it's the Suna Heiki No Jutsu(Sand Weaponry Jutsu).

*As he wondered about who could of put the scroll on his bed, he grew tired and laid his head on his pillow. As he slept into unconciousness, Makoto thought about the jutsu.*

OOC: Strength, Stamina, Chakra Control, Intelligence, Hand Seals increased. Ninjutsu and Genjutsu increased.

Day 3: Part One
Taijutsu and Kunai Throwing

*Makoto woke up in the morning to the sweet, soothing sound of an annoying alarm clock. As he stretched out his muscles, there was one thing on his mind. Whatever or even whoever put the Suna Heiki No Jutsu(Sand Weaponry Jutsu) on his bed wants him to learn it. After Makoto took a long hot shower he brushed his teeth and then walked to the kitchen. He craked some eggs over a hot skillet and started to scramble them. He also cooked some bacon and sausages, and to top it off Makoto made some pancakes and some fresh orange juice.*

Makoto: Mmm mmm mmm...I really out done myself this morning.

*It was easy to see that Makoto was going to have a good day today. On his agenda he was going to train his taijutsu and learn the Suna Heiki No Jutsu.*

Makoto: Today is the day that I begin my life as a "Sunaton Shinobi" of the great Sunagakure.

*As Makoto put his training weights back on, he put on his clothes and placed the Sunaton scroll in his coat pocket. He also picked up the fifty pound rice sack so he can practice his striking. As he made his way to his backyard for his taijutsu training he thought of a place he could go to bring out his kekkai genkai. Once he was in the backyard, Makoto tied the sack to a tree branch and made the ordinary rice sack into a taijutsu training bag. As he began his training, Makoto thought of a routine to go by because his real training today was to learn his new jutsu. Makoto began to punch the sack with right hand. After twenty minutes of attacking the defenseless sack of rice with his right hand, a buzzing sound went off around Makoto.*

Makoto: 997...998...999...1000...

Clock: Buzzzz buzzzz buzzzz

Makoto: Phew! In twenty minutes I was able to dish out 1000 punches. Thats not bad at all. Now for the left hand.

*Makoto began to dish out some more strikes again to the sack. While punching, Makoto thought about his next routine.*

Makoto: 347...After this I'm going to tie it...348...to the tree and start to...349...strike it with my right leg...350.

*The twenty minutes was up for his left hand and Mokoto began his next routine. He tied the sack of rice to trunk of a tree and started to kick at it.*

Makoto: Now to began this one with only ten minutes this time.

*Makoto was on his way to greatness. As he struck the tree the clock went off again.*

Clock: Buzzzzz buzzzz buzzzzz

Makoto: *Breathing hard* 500 right leg strikes all done. Now for the left side again.

*As his body started to warm up with his training, Makoto started to think again about the jutsu.*

Makoto: 452...That jutsu will help me alot...453...

*Ten minutes were up before he knew it. As he took a break and drunk some water, Makoto thought of another way to build up his shinobi skills. He was going to train the accuracy of his kunai throwing. He untied the rice sack and pulled out a kunai. He cut a target into the tree trunk of the tree. In the bulls-eye of the target, Makoto sliced the symbol of a Sunagakure shinobi into the flesh of the tree.*

Makoto: I think I should practice my accuracy before I go to learn the jutsu since the Suna Heiki can form any weapon that I want, but I'm sure that kunai would be the number one thing that I use.

*Makoto pulled out all of his kunai and started to launch them with his right hand. One after another the five kunai that Makoto owned flew thru the air towards the target. Two of them hit the tree and the other three almost hit a cat.*

Makoto: Ooops! My bad cat.

*Makoto knew that he needed some practice. He retrieved the kunai and began to practice his throwing again. This time three of the five kunai hit the target while the other two flew at the cat again.*

Makoto: Damn! My bad cat...again.

*As time passed by the young shinobi began to hit his target with all five kunai. Makoto was happy to see his progress, but he thought it was time for him to pack it up and move on to his real training. Makoto put his sack of rice back in the house and locked it up. Before he could practice his new jutsu he had to make a quick stop at the Kazekage's office.*

Day 3: Part Two
The Suna Heiki No Jutsu

*While locking up his house, Makoto started to get nervous when thinking about being face to face with Gaara-sama, the Kazekage of the village hidden in the sand. He started to sweat when he started thinking of a way to say that he too posessed the Sunaton bloodline.*

Makoto: Ummm...Kazekage-sama. My name is ummm...uhhh...Ma Ma Makoto Takeshi and I have the you like Sunaton bloodline. I mean that I have the Sunaton bloodline like you.

Makoto: No that won't work. Maybe...

Makoto: Ay yo Kazekage-sama dude...I got the Sunaton bloodline like you dude...small world huh dude...

Makoto: That won't work either...

*As Makoto practiced his speech to the Kazekage, he decided to just go with whatever comes out his mouth.*

Makoto: Im a Sunaton and your a Sunaton and thats how it is...ohhhh if I do that he may kill me.

*Makoto was there at the Kazekage's office and he stood in front of two giant doors. Before he could knock, the doors opened before him and it made Makoto nervous again. Makoto walked in and started to look around the office. He seen a picture of the Kazekage and what looked like the Hokage of the leaf village laughing together. As he approached the Kazekage he felt his heart drop to his feet. Makoto began to speak.*

Makoto: Hel hel hello there Kazekage-sama, my name is Makot....

Kazekage: I know how you are Makoto Takeshi and I know why you are here.

*Makoto's heart not only dropped but it also froze his Sunaton blood from flowing.*

Makoto: You do?

Kazekage: I know all about you Makoto. I know that you and I share three things in common.

Makoto: We do?

*Just then the Kazekage turned his chair around to look Makoto in the eyes.*

Kazekage: Yes we do. We are both shinobi of the village hidden in the sand, we both want to prove ourselves to be the best and most powerful, and we both possess the...

*As Makoto watched his mouth form two words that brought him to meet the Kazekage, Makoto couldn't help to wonder how he knew.*

Kazekage:...SUNATON BLOODLINE!!!

Makoto: But how did you know?

*The Kazekage took a deep breath and started to speak, but it wasn't what Makoto wanted to hear.*

Kazekage: You should be going now to the dessert outside of our village. I have made you a special approval with my signature to practice outside of the village anytime that you want.

Makoto: But I want to know how you...

Kazekage: Everything will be known in due time, but you need to first master the Suna Heiki No Jutsu first. Now go!

*Makoto realized that the Kazekage was spying on him when he was training and was the one who throw that sand kunai at him that day. He was also the one that placed the jutsu scroll on his bed.*

Makoto: Thank you Kazekage-sama.

*As he made his way out the office and towards the entrance to the village, Makoto was stopped by a guard to the village.*

Guard: What purpose does a genin have trying to exit the village?

Makoto: To train.

Guard: You need special permission from the Kazekage himself to exit the village and since he has no time for a mere genin like you, you should go home.

*As the guard laughed at Makoto, Makoto pulled out the approval that was specially made for him by the Kazekage.*

Makoto: Here you go. I guess that I'm not a mere genin afterall huh?

*As the guard stopped laughing and let Makoto thru the exit, Makoto started to think that he knew what he was doing.*

Makoto: I have no idea what I'm doing.

*Makoto stopped at the end of the entrance that was carved thru the high walls that led in and out of the village. The temperature seemed hotter than being inside of Sunagakure. Makoto walked about ten meters to the right of the entrance and pulled out the scroll and studied the jutsu.*

Makoto: Now lets get started.

Sunaton Jutsu Scroll

Sand Weaponry (Suna Heiki No Jutsu):
Requirements: TBA
Description: Creates Sand weapons (Needles, bullets, shurikens, spear, sword). Sharpness/Hardness and how many that can be made depends on level of skill.

*After Makoto read the scroll he extended his arms and and started to channel chakra to his hands. After he felt like enough was enough, Makoto formed the handseals required for the jutsu and yelled...*

Makoto: Suna heiki no jutsu.

* Makoto looked around and saw that the only sand that moved is the ones that were caught in the dry breeze that the wind brought.*

Makoto: Damn this is going to be hard.

*Makoto formed the seals again and yelled out.*

Makoto: Suna heiki no jutsu

*Nothing appeared to happen once again. Makoto was getting a little impatient.*

Makoto: I'm suppose to have the Sunaton bloodline in me so why isn't anything happening?

*Makoto began to form the seals again and again and again, and after forming the seals and yelling out the jutsu Makoto began to grow irritated with the sand jutsu.*

Makoto: Damn I'm irritated with this sand jutsu! I wonder if the scroll has any hints as to how the technique works.

*As Makoto pulled the scroll out of his pocket he studied it again.

Sunaton Bloodline Clans:

Sunaton means Sand. The bloodline orginally formed as a genetic mutation as a founder of the earth based clans and a powerful wind based married and produced an offspring.

Few men were seen to use the sand as a weapon, the third kazekage, and the actual on, the fifth, Garaa, were the strongest sand users in history. Rare are sunaton users in the world of shinobis, but feared are those who possess it.

There are no specific families possessing the bloodline. People possessing wind or earth based chakra sometime find an affinity with sand, and reveal the bloodline. Altough there are no families, there are two branches to the use of sand, two advanced bloodline based on either wind or earth based chakra.

*Makoto didn't read the rest of the scroll. He kept looking at the two elements that sand is derived from. When he put the scroll back in his pocket Makoto remembered something.*

Makoto: Wait a minute, the Kazekage said that the approval was made specially for me. Does it have some sort a clue?

*Makoto pulled the approval from the pocket and looked at it. As he read it, a smile started to crack against his dry skin.*

Makoto: It says to be as gentle as the wind but as strong as the earth...what the hell does that mean?

*After Makoto read the approval he sat down on the warm dessert sand.*

Makoto: Be as gentle as the wind but as strong as the earth...as gentle as the wind but as strong as the earth...as gentle as the wind...

*Just then the wind blew and Makoto let the sand dance on his skin. Just then Makoto stood up with much energy in his body and a fire in his eyes. Makoto began to move his chakra infused arms as if he could control the wind. He moved them with a smooth motion but with a strong powerful stance. He closed his eyes and continued to this behavior for an hour while visualizing a kunai. All of a sudden Makoto opened his eyes then formed the handseals and yelled out with a powerful tone but with a gentle voice.*

Makoto: SUNA HEIKI NO JUTSU

*A small amount of sand began to rise and move in a circle around Makoto but no wind was blowing. The sand started to gather in one spot in front of Makoto. Makoto could feel the sand compress together as if it were him that was molding and forming the sand into something. After the sand finished hardening, look of astonishment striked the sun scorched face of Makoto for he was finally able to tap into the Sunaton bloodline. A sharp, lonely kunai floated in front of Makoto. Makoto stretched out his hand a grabbed the kunai and examined it. He pulled out one of his regular kunai and started to compare them. Just as he smiled at the perfection that he seen in his sand kunai it returned to its original form of thousands of minerals and Makoto fell to the ground.*

Makoto: I did it, but now I need a break!

OOC: Accuracy increased. Taijutsu, Weapon Skills increased. Suna Heiki No Jutsu Learned

Day 4: Part One
Tekko Training

*After stepping out of the Weapons Shop, Makoto made his way home with two new items. He looked in the bag and pulled out his tekkos and put them on. Makoto could feel the weight of the weapons as he threw a striking blow to the air with his right hand.*

Makoto: These things are much heavier than I expected.

*As Makoto made his way back to the place he trained the day before, he begun to punch wildly at the air in front of him. He was trying to get a feel of the tekkos being apart of him. Trying to figure out how hard he should punch, where to punch for the knife to slice, and how fast he could dish them out to the opponent.*

Makoto: *Panting* Whew! This is exhausting, but I need to use these if I ever get into a confrontation with an enemy who uses a close combat weapon like a sword.

*Makoto continued his jabbing, inserting little combos as he makes progress.*

Makoto: Jab, jab, jab, uppercut, hook, hook, crossover punch. Uppercut, hook, crossover, jab, jab, uppercut.

*Makoto began to breath heavily while running and striking an invisible enemy. He made it to the entrance of Sunagakure where the same guard stood. Makoto and the guard made eye contact, tension was flying everywhere with the two. Makoto began his walk into the valley surrounded by high cliffs when the other guard foolishly stood up and approached Makoto.*

Guard #2: Hey kid where do you think you're going? Hey are you listening to me???

Makoto: Tch!!!

Guard #2: Why I odda...

Guard #1: Let him go. He has approval from Kazekage-sama to train in the desert.

Guard #2: What? But thats upsurd!

Guard #1: I know, but for some reason Kazekage-sama thinks he's special.

*As he began has journey thru the entrance to Suna, Makoto wondered how strong the tekkos were so he concentrated some chakra and formed some handseals.*

Makoto: Suna Heiki no jutsu

*As Makoto's words deadened, five piles of sand arose from the ground before him. The piles of sand hardened and formed five kunai that Makoto sent towards his self. The points of the sand kunai were sharp like normal kunai were and that bothered Makoto a little, but Makoto summoned enough courage to face his little experiment head on. As he got close enough he swung his right arm toward the first sand kunai flying toward him. He ended up smashing thru it with ease and begun to assault on the second one. His left tekko cut thru the kunai like a hot knife thru butter. Makoto was pleased in the tekkos' performance. His third, fourth, and fifth kunai didn't even stand a chance when Makoto started to fill the weapons with chakra. All of a sudden Makoto felt a strange new power in the tekkos as if they were stronger than before.*

Makoto: What the hell is this feeling. I feel as light as the wind.

*Makoto ended up fusing his wind chakra with the tekkos in his hands which made them stronger, sharper, and lighter. After the remaining sand kunai disappeared, Makoto was at the beginning of the entrance. Makoto looked down at the tekkos with a puzzled face.*

Makoto: That was wierd. I didn't know that I could fuse my wind chakra into the weapons like that. This is very interesting.

*After Makoto finished his thought he started to walk toward the training spot. When he got there he took the new clay gourd that he bought along with the tekkos off and put them down. Makoto sat on the sand and started to meditate, pondering about his next training session that he was going to start.*

Day 4: Part Two
Mixing Wind With Weapons

*Makoto's eyes shot open and he began to stand up with a lightbulb above his head. The future "Sand Demon of Sunagakure" had been struct with an idea for his next training session.*

Makoto: Fusing chakra. I'm going to try to fuse my chakra into the tekkos, the sand gourd, and into enough sand to fill up the gourd.

*After Makoto's mental speech was over he started to go to work with his brilliant idea. He began to warm up every part of his body by forming the hand seal for the ram and molding chakra.*

Makoto: Ahhhh!!! This feels so good.

*Makoto continued to distribute chakra to every part of his body for thirty seconds before he stared at the two tekkos laying in the sand. Makoto began to walk towards the tekkos, he kneeled down to pick them up and studied them for a minute.*

Makoto: These tekkos are for close range combat and with a little of my wind chakra fused within these two weapons, I could be unstoppable.

*After Makoto analysed of the tekkos he begun his training. He placed each finger in their designated spot and started to find the wind chakra inside of his body. Makoto's chakra began to leak into the tekkos as he stood in the sand with his eyes closed. When he felt like he done it correctly he open his eyes and saw that his tekkos had a globby effect around them.*

Makoto: Damn...i did it wrong. What was it that Temari-sempai told me after I left Kazekage-sama's office...

*Makoto gazed at the sky trying to remember what she had told him.*

Temari: Makoto, wait up.

Makoto: Yes Temari-sempai, how can I help you?

Temari: I was told that you were just like Gaara so I looked into your file. It says that you have a wind affinity. Luckily I am the same as you also. Here is your first lesson with wind. When you try to manipulating the wind chakra, you got to imagine splitting your chakra into two and cause friction between them. Then you got to sharpen those two chakra into fine pieces and compress them together.

Makoto: ...split, rub, sharpen, compress...split, rub, sharpen, compress...

Temari: The sharper and thinner, the better for your weapon because wind has the strongest offense than all the other weapons.

Makoto: Thank you Temari-sempai for the advice but I got to get going so talk to you later.

Temari: Hope it helps out...and stop running in the hallways.

*Makoto snapped back from his day dream and began to do as Temari instructed. He released the chakra from his tekkos and began to concentrate again. He started to think about the chakra that he channeled to his hands as two. He imagined them rubbing and friction then sharpening each other. After Makoto pictured the chakra shapening itself he compressed them together. During the steps that were taking place, Makoto was whispering to his self...*

Makoto: Split, rub, sharpen, compress...split, rub, sharpen, compress...

*Makoto's chakra began to leak into the tekkos as he whispered and imagined the chakra getting thinner and sharper. Makoto's eyes started to open once more. As his eyelids slowly risen towards his forehead, Makoto could feel a sharp cutting feeling in his hands. It wasn't harmful to him but it was surprising and somewhat familiar. It was the same feeling that he had when he was punching at the sand kunai that he made before.*

Makoto: This feeling is very sharp...what the hell!!!

*As Makoto's eyelids finished their journey excitement filled Makoto brain along with surprise and puzzlement. Makoto looked down at the tekkos and seen a sharp and rigid outline surrounding the weapons.*

Makoto: Did I do it right? I think I did...I did it... I DID IT!!!

*Makoto rejoiced at his progress with the tekkos and his wind manipulation. All that was left was the clay gourd and filling it up with his own sand.*

Day 4: Part Three
Creating Sand

*Makoto's rejoice was followed by a stern serious look as he gazed at the clay gourd laying in the sand. His mission was to be able to turn the gourd into sand and then turn it into a sand gourd. After he does that Makoto is going to try and fill it up with his own sand so he can use it on missions where there aren't any native resources.*

Makoto: Lets get this show on the road!

*Makoto, as enthusiastic as ever, reached for the gourd and placed both hands on it. As his hands grasped the item, Makoto thought of what he did the first time he did the Suna Heiki no jutsu. Gripping the container, Makoto lifted it towards his chest and started to meditate, trying to be one with the object.*

Makoto: I am the gourd...I am the sand that created it and I am the sand that controls it. It is nothing but an extension of my physical body, but we are one mentally. My chakra runs thru every mineral that is compressed within the gourd...I AM THE GOURD!!!

*Makoto started to focus chakra into the gourd. He could feel his blood warming up...the Sunaton blood that flowed thru every vein in his body. He started to feel this funny sensation as if he was getting larger. He opened his eyes and seen that the gourd was slowly turning into sand before him, mixing with the dessert.*

Makoto: Good its transforming...now to speed up the process.

*Makoto started to concentrate more chakra into the breaking object. He started to feel the gourd break, but as it fell he could still every mineral.*

Makoto: Its starting to fuse with my chakra...this is becoming my very own sand to control at will.

*As the gourd broke and fell to the ground, Makoto started to make a new gourd from the parts that broke off. As he finished the gourd in his hands the one on the floor began to take shape. It was almost like an hour glass, the sand that fell from the top section piled up on the bottom causing a brand new gourd. When the change was finished, Makoto felt like he had total control over the container. He caused it to fall to pieces and spread out in the sand. When he called it back together, five piles of sand formed and shot out of the ground like fireworks. The sand surrounded Makoto and came closer to his body forming the gourd on his back. Makoto was pleased with his training but he was far from over. Now he had to fill it up with his own sand. As he took his first step, Makoto became light-headed and stumbled on the sand. He fell to one knee and realized that he was breathing heavily so he took a break. Makoto walked towards the cliff that he practiced in front of and took shade under its massive height.*

Makoto: Whew!!! I sure am glad that the day is almost over.

*As his break continued, Makoto put his hands on the sand next to him. Trying so desperatly to get that feeling he had with the gourd, Makoto concentrated yet again to sink his chakra deep down within the ground to pull out sand that has never seen the light of day in thousands of years. Makoto put all of his effort into today's training so far that he didn't want to fail.*

Makoto: Got...to...accomplish...training...today.

*Makoto started to feel the sand rising from deep within the dessert. Sand shot out of the ground like a geyser and into the gourd that was on Makoto's back. Makoto released his concentration as the last mineral fell into place.*

Makoto: Damn...it wasn't enough to fill the gourd. It only filled up about a quarter of of it and I only have enough chakra to fill up half of the gourd today and enough to get home afterwards.

*After taking a large breath of fresh air, Makoto exhaled it and inhaled again. He started to calm down a little and he wiped the sweat that formed on his neck off into the sand. Even though he was in the shade, the sand was still hot enough to cause steam when the sweat touched it. Makoto began his concentration once more.*

Makoto: I am the sand...I am the sand...I AM THE SAND!!!

*As the chakra traveled down into the ancient sand Makoto couldn't help to realize that with everyday that passes, he takes another step towards becoming as strong as the Kazekage of Sunagakure. Makoto flinched a little and removed his hands from the sand and pulled up, raising the sand from its ancient slumber and into his gourd. As the sand raised up, it reminded Makoto of a wall.*

Makoto: *Breathing hard* Thats it...I'm thru for today...it's time to go home.

*Makoto stood up and with a little stumbling was finally able to get on his feet. Luckily he kept a little chakra for the walk home because the half filled container on his back added a little weight and Makoto was already packing an extra forty pounds. He walked towards his tekkos and picked them up and placed them in his gourd by making an opening big enough for them. He walked towards the entrance and made his way thru the valley and passed the two guards from before.

Guard #2: How was training kid?

Makoto: Great and showed alot of progress. See you guys later.

Guard #1: So long and take care.

*As Makoto walked past the Kazekage's place he seen Gaara peering down at him and nod his head. Makoto returned a smile and a nod right back at him and made his way down the street. Makoto made a right and a then a left and he was at his house. As Makoto thought about the wall of sand that he seen it just so happen to hit him.*

Makoto: That reminded me of that jutsu in the scrolls. The Hei Suna no jutsu(Sand Wall). Maybe I should ask Kazekage-sama to teach it to me since its a defensive technique that comes in handy. Yep the Hei Suna no jutsu will be the next one.

*As Makoto dragged his weary body to his mattress his eyes began to close and his body began to fall. Makoto timed everything right for his body landed safely in the the comfort of his bed and fell fast to sleep.*

OOC: Manipulated wind chakra into tekkos, Fused chakra into sand gourd, Filled half of gourd with own sand, chakra control increased

Day 5: Part One
Breaking Wind: Decapitating Air Wave

Makoto: That one right there sir...I've been waiting for this jutsu for a long time. Ever since I graduated from the academy the thought of manipulating the wind to my advantage his been a dream of mine.

Old Man: Well, well, well! What I hold in my hands requires that you have a special ability before I can let you buy it, so hold on for a second please while I head to the back to fetch some paper.

Makoto: (What...now what's holding me up? I just wanted to buy it and go so I can start using it. Geez, what do I have to do?)

*As he turned his back to the young shinobi and began to walk to the supply room inside of the well kept jutsu shop, Makoto began to size him up from head to toe.*

Makoto: (Why do they have an old, decripit fool running this shop anywa...damnnnn!!!)

*Before Makoto could finish his thought an explosion went off in his head when he caught a glimpse of the many degrees that hung upon the wall.*

Makoto: (Man thats alot of accomplishments that he has aquired in his life. Thats probably why he runs it...shit, he's probably the person who writes down and creates all the jutsu in this store.

*As Makoto studied the official documents and the pictures of the shop keeper with the Third, Fourth, and Fifth Kazekages, the old man closed the door to the back supply room and begun his walk to the front counter.*

Makoto: (Wow! He has pictures with the strongest Kazekage in the history of Sunagakure, he must really know what he is doing.)

Old Man: Ahhh yes! Here it is.

*Makoto looked at the old man carrying a piece of paper in his left hand grasping it tightly. The old man signaled to Makoto to grab the sheet of parchment from out of his hand while he held on to another piece in his right. Confusion set across Makoto's face while wondering what it is that the old man was getting him into.*

Makoto: (What the hell?) What is this for sir?

*The old man smiled at the shinobi and started to explain the history of the test that he was going to show Makoto.*

Old Man: This is the Natural Affinity Test, or the NAT's for short. It is a test that all shinobi must go thru before they are approved to buy an elemental jutsu from my shop.

Makoto: (NAT's) And how do I take this test? Do I have to study something before I can take it?

*The old man chuckled before Makoto while shaking his head at the sametime.*

Old Man: Ofcourse not son! The only thing that you have to do for the NAT's is concentrate chakra into the paper because these special sheets of paper comes from trees which are specially grown with chakra. When the ninja imbues the paper with a portion of their chakra, the paper will alter to reveal one's type. The paper will rip in two for Wind, burn for Fire, become wet for Water, fall apart for Earth and crumple for Lightning. So lets see what type you are so I can record it in the files.

Makoto: But sir, I already know which one I am. I am a wind and earth type shinobi.

*The old man looked at Makoto with piercing eyes.*

Old Man: Is that so? And how do you know this?

*A smirk darted across Makoto's face as the old man asked the question.*

Makoto: Because...I'm just like Gaara-sama!

*As Makoto's words rolled off of his tongue, out of his mouth, and pierced the old man's ears a shocking look fell upon him. Then all of a sudden the shop went silent. The sound of the dessert crickets were heard while the two stood still. It wasn't until a thunderous laughter broke the silence of the awkward moment and the old man opened his mouth.*

Old Man: That was a good one son, I really needed that! Phew! Now that thats over, lets get down to business. Focus your chakra into the paper and...

*Before the old man finished his statement, Makoto had already begun to accumalate chakra into his paper that he held firmly in his right hand. The paper began to tear dowm the middle and in one spit second, the entire paper was cut in two infront of the old man.*

Old Man: Well I guess you have the wind element down so I can approve the purchase of this jutsu without a problem now. Let me just record it in the files so you don't have to go thru with this hassle again.

*As the old man written down the element that Makoto had a natural affinity to, Makoto reached into his back pocket and pulled out his wallet.*

Old Man: Ok...since this is your first D-Rank jutsu you are eligible for the 50% off sale, so instead of paying $550, you will be paying $275.

*Makoto pulled out the right amount of money for the jutsu and handed it to the owner. After recieving his jutsu, Makoto nodded at the old man and began to run towards the exit.*

Makoto: Thank you sir!

Old Man: Your welcome son! Train hard!

Makoto: I will sir...I will!

*With that said, Makoto opened the door and stepped out into the street. He made his way down the road and into the weapons shop to buy some supplies. He was in a hurry to train his new jutsu so he didn't waste anytime walking in and out of the shop. While he was in there, he purchased a set of 20lb training weights for his legs. Makoto replaced the 10lb weights that were already on his legs with the new heavier ones. He placed the old training weights in the shopping bag that was given to him and he was on his way to his old training grounds, the lake. As he walked to the lake, Makoto's legs felt the weight of the world on them. With every step that he took it seemed as if he was already training his leg muscles.*

Makoto: (Damn these weights are heavy, but no pain no gain.)

*Makoto began to sprint to the lake to get there faster and to effectively take advantage of his leg weights. His muscles began to tire as he caught view of the water and trees.*

Makoto: (There it is, the training grounds best suited for me. Now to give it my ALL!!!)

*With a burst of speed, Makoto began to run at top speeds to reach his destination. His goal was get there as fast as he could but not to train, Makoto wanted to take a break at the moment.*

Makoto: (Almost there!)

*With several large strides, Makoto made it to the lake and collapsed down on the ground. Makoto began to smile as his legs rejoiced from the release of pressure. As a few minutes passed by, Makoto sat up and removed the training weights from his legs and also the iron rings from his wrist. With sixty extra pounds of weight lifted from his 125lb frame, Makoto was ready to train his new wind jutsu, The Decapitating Air Wave.*

Day 5: Part Two
Bending Wind To His Will

*After taking off all of the equipment that weighed him down, Makoto felt as lite as a feather. Makoto executed a few jabs and kicks to loosen up his muscles and then he reached into his bag and pulled out the jutsu scroll. Makoto unravelled the scroll and skimmed over the text.*

Makoto: (Now to finally get started!)

Decapitating Air Wave
Name: Zankuha
Type: D Rank, Ninjutsu, Offensive, Defensive, Short Range
Element: Wind
By focusing chakra into a small point, the user can control air pressure creating a powerful burst of air. The bursts are powerful enough to destroy stone but weaken the further they advance from the orgin.

Makoto: (Hmmm...focusing chakra into a small point, huh? Well I guess that it's time for me to meditate and try to concentrate, but where can I focus the chakra?)

*Makoto became puzzled after reading the jutsu scroll. He didn't know where to gather the wind chakra and how he was going to create a powerful burst of air. Makoto begun to sit on the ground in front of a tree and closed his eyes. As his eyes closed together, Makoto clapped his hands and kept them together while he meditated. He started to search within himself for the wind chakra that he needed to complete the jutsu. While he searched, Makoto opened up his mind and and his other senses to help him out. His hearing reached levels that he could not even explain, and his so did his sense of smell. Makoto was able to hear the blades of grass move and the leaves of the tree shake as a dry, Sunagakure breeze blew across them. Makoto could also smell the water in the lake as his nose caught a whiff of the breeze, almost like someone was controlling the breeze's air stream, and thats when a lightbulb lit up over Makoto's head.*

Makoto: (CONTROL OF THE AIR!!! I can use my hands to control the air pressure of the wind by gather wind chakra in the palms of my hands then I can push the air out infront of me.

*At that very moment, Makoto began to collect chakra into the palm of his right hand.*

Makoto: Let's begin with the right hand and then the left. After I'm able to do it easily with my left and right I'll start working with both at the same time.

*Makoto's chakra began to move from the core of his body, thru his circulatory system, along side his right and left arms, and started to concentrate in the middle of his palms. While this was happening, Makoto could feel the air around his hands begin to gather outside of those specific spots in his palms. As the pressure rose, Makoto brought his hands closer to his body and got ready to push forward. The pressure built up to where it was to much for Makoto to bear when he pushed his hands forward, opened his mouth, and yelled out loud.*

Makoto: Zankuha!!!

*As Makoto's hands pushed forward, he could feel his chakra leaking out into the collected air pressure and mixing violently. Makoto's arms reached their maximum extension and the condensed air evolved into a loose burst of wind. As the powerful gust traveled forward, the ground itself began to pull up from it's natural state and crumble before the eyes of Makoto as he kept his hands extended. The attack was unbelievablely strong as it terrorized the land infront of him until it hit "Makoto's Tree" and began to diminish. The tree stood about three meters from Makoto with a chunk of bark missing from the trunk. Makoto was in awe at the power that came from deep within him, but he knew that the training was not over. He may have gotten lucky with the comprehension and execution of the jutsu but he had a new obstacle in his way, blowing down his favorite tree.*

Makoto: (You have been a big help to me old friend, you helped me with my tree walking excercise but I knew that there would come a time when we would have to part ways. I'm sorry old friend, but I can not complete my training until I take you down...forgive me!)

*Makoto stood up and braced hisself for the jutsu yet again. He looked deep within himself to find his chakra reservoir and started to distrubute chakra towards his palms once more. As he concentrated the chakra towards his hands, he brought them close to his body again.*

Makoto: (This time I'm going to focus more chakra into my palms so the air wave is stronger than before.)

*Makoto accumulated more chakra into his hands, he felt the air pressure build up once more, but he kept on focusing more and more chakra. The air pressure began to increase beyond his first one and thats when Makoto knew that it was time to push forward and release it.*

Makoto: Zankuha!!!

*As he stretched out his arms again, Makoto could feel the pressure intensify as his wind chakra blended with the air and was thrusted towards the tree infront of him. More of the earth gave up some of it's minerals as the overwhelming force dominated the path as it headed towards it final destination...the tree. Gale force winds were blowing rapidly everywhere as Makoto awaited the impact of the airwave with the gigantic plant.*

Makoto: This...is...fierce!!!

*The further the burst of air traveled the weaker it got but the tree stood no chance against it still. After making contact with the tree, the airwave began to cut another huge chunk out of the trunk. After the vicious collision te violent wind subsided and the air became calm once more. Makoto stared straight breathing heavily at the unlucky tree with a shocking look across his face.*

Makoto: Damn...it's still...standing!!! One more should...do the...trick.

*Makoto felt exhausted from his second attack and knew that he didn't have enough chakra left for the third attempt, but he ignored it anyway. He began to concentrate chakra once more to his hands and brought them close to his body again. The pressure against his palms began to build up to it max and Makoto thrusted forward...for the last time.*

Makoto: ZANKUHA...aarrrgghhh!!!

*The pressure released forward but at the sametime, Makoto was thrown backwards. While the two parted, Makoto felt his body shutting down while the airwave collided with the tree. Makoto soared in the air for a few seconds until he crashed into the hard ground behind him. As Makoto's eyes began to shut, he could see the tree start to decend. A smirk started to form as Makoto spoke his last word before slipping out of conscienceness.*

Makoto: Tim...ber!!!

Day 5: Part Three
Mastering His Gift

???: Takeshi Makoto

*Struggling to open his eyes Makoto heard a faint sound coming from infront of him. Who was this mystery person?*

???: Takeshi Makoto!!!

*Hearing the voice getting louder and louder Makoto peered through one eye and saw the silhouette of a man with two bulges coming from out of his body, one from his right hip and the other from between the left shoulder and the left side of his neck. While Makoto traversed down memory lane inorder to recognize where he has seen this figure before, Makoto's senses tingled and a reaction occured on his part.*

???: STAND UP BEFORE ME TAKESHI MAKOTO!!!

*As this mysterious voice sent weird vibes down the spine of the fearless genin a shuriken was shot out from that direction. With the speed of a cheetah Makoto's eyes widened with anticipation as he formed a sand katana and hardened it with his chakra. As the katana shaped sand hardened, Makoto began to swing it at the shuriken.*

Makoto: (What the hell!?!)

*While in mid-swing, Makoto noticed that the shuriken was created from sand and that there was only one more person who can use that move other than himself.*

Makoto: Kazekage-sama???

*With little effort Makoto's sand katana made contact with the sand shuriken. Thinking that the shuriken will be launched right back at the Kazekage once impact was made, a smirk began to fall upon Makoto's face.*

Makoto: (Take this Kazekage-sama.)

*Unfortunately, Makoto's plan was destroyed when the sand shuriken penetrated the katana. The strength of the shuriken was unbelievable to Makoto when one of the points on the shuriken peered out the other side of the katana.*

Makoto: (What the hell...how much chakra did he put into it???)

Kazekage: Takeshi Makoto it's time to see what you can do...now show me!!!

*Makoto looked at the Kazekage, still stunned from the sand shuriken that penetrated his sand katana like a hot knife through butter.*

Makoto: This is basically all that I can do with my sand...make weapons, but I can do this wicked wind jutsu.

*Cracking a smile as he spoke the last few words of his pathetic statement, Gaara,the Kazekage, did not looked pleased.*

Gaara: So you can create weapons with sand now...then create these then.

*Gaara reaches behind his back and pulls out a few weapons and drops them on the ground. It was four weapons that Makoto has not practiced creating and one that he has. The weapons were a kunai, hari, a flat disc, shuriken, and a staff. Makoto seen the kunai first and started to concentrate to create that familiar weapon used by all shinobi. As the top to his clay gourd popped off, his very own sand began to float out infront of Makoto.*

Gaara: Hmmm...

*As the sand floated out infront of his face, a small amount of sand seperated from the rest and started to take form. A whole at the back end of the shape shifting sand formed and a point at the front end took shape also. Then Makoto concentrated his chakra to sharpen and harden the sand kunai to imitate the original that lay before him.*

Makoto: Easy as pie!!!

*Gaara stared at the talented genin before him and asked for more.*

Gaara: Now create ten more simultaneously.

Makoto: Wha...huh...ok i guess!!!

*Makoto started to focus once more, thinking about ten kunai at once in a single row. As fast as the thought came to mind, ten small amounts of sand went to work. Just as before, ten kunai shapes were made at one time and hardened at once. The sharpness of the kunai were just as the original lying on the ground. Once finished Makoto stood at attention infront of Gaara and opened his mouth.*

Makoto: Ten kunai created Kazekage-sama...what should I do next???

Gaara: Now combine two of those kunai into one double-sided kunai...and do the same with the others until you have five of them.

Makoto: Yes Kazekage-sama!!!

*Makoto's blood was boiling from the excitement of utilizing his sand on another level.*

Makoto: (This is great...hopefully I learn the sand wall before I go home for the day.)

*After his thought Makoto took control of two sand kunai and turned the points so they face opposite directions. Once the points faced left and right, Makoto brought them together and unloosened them with a minuscule amount of chakra to combine them. He done the same with the other eight kunai until he had a total of five double-sided kunai infront of him.*

Gaara: Good...now make ten shuriken.

Makoto: Mmkayy!!!

*Makoto dispersed the five double sided kunai ten floating piles of sand.*

Makoto: (Hmmm...a shuriken has five points like a star, so hmmmm...)

*As Makoto began the transformation of sand into weapon, he noticed that he was beginning to shape and handle the sand much faster. Not to long after the first sand shuriken was created, Makoto started to produce them faster and faster until he was at ten once again.*

Makoto: Kazekage-sama, I feel myself handling the sand better than before. Why is that???

*Gaara stared at the young shinobi and started to explain the basics to him.*

Gaara: The more you practice with your sand the better you will get. It's just like any other skill in this world. When you practice kunai throwing for long periods of time, doesn't your accuracy get better?

Makoto: Yes Kazekage-sama, but what about the sand?

Gaara: The sand that you control will be with you until you die because your personal sand grows with you. The more you practice with your sand the better your handling of it shall get. Do you understand?

Makoto: Yes Kazekage-sama!

Gaara: Now continue by combing the shuriken until you have four fuuma shuriken.

Makoto: Yes Kazekage-sama!

*Makoto went to work yet again on combining the regular sand shuriken into fuuma shuriken. Makoto knew what a fuuma shuriken looked like already because he had to study them while in the academy.*

Makoto: (I remember in the academy that the fuuma shuriken had four curved points and a whole in the middle of the weapon for ropes or wire to be tied to.)

*After thinking a bit, Makoto placed the ten shuriken into four groups of two and a half each. With all of his might he began to form one group into a fuuma shuriken. The four curved points resembled the blades of four butterfly swords while a whole in the middle of the weapon formed as well. As the first fuuma shuriken took shape, the other three groups of sand shurikens morphed as well. Using as little chakra that he could, Makoto harden the four fuuma shurikens and sharpen them to make a perfect imitation of the original. Before Makoto could announce that he was finished, Gaara spoke once more.*

Gaara: You seem to have gotten the hang of your personal sand for creating weapons so you can practice the others in your free time. Now lets practice the Hei Suna no jutsu(Sand Wall).

*A look of amazement fell upon Makoto's face. He was going to learn a move from the Kazekage himself.*

Makoto: Thank you Kazekage-sama...ummm...how does it work?

Gaara: The Hei Suna works as a defensive wall to protect you from incoming attacks like projectiles or even taijutsu type attacks. The more chakra that you put into the sand wall, the harder it becomes.

*Makoto soaked up the information that the Kazekage bestowed upon him like a sponge.*

Makoto: So how do I do it?

Gaara: Well, the training that I had you doing helped you develop an even greater control over your sand. You will need this control to be able to utilize the Hei Suna to it's maximum potential.

Makoto: You mean that me perfecting my Suna Heiki was to make the Hei Suna easier to learn and more effective?

Gaara: Precisely...now what I want you to do is think about making a hard two foot wall of sand infront of you.

Makoto: Yes Kazekage-sama!!!

Day 5: Part Four
Building A Wall Of Sand

*Makoto nodded his head showing the Kazekage that he understands what was told to him. As he begin to think about the sand wall, a couple questions fell upon his mind and need answers.*

Makoto: Excuse me Kazekage-sama, but how wide and thick do you want the wall to be?

*Gaara unfolded his arms and began to move his mouth.*

Gaara: Make it wide enough to cover your body from view and thick enough to stop any incoming attacks. Be warned that the thicker and stronger the wall, the more chakra has to be put into it, and judging from all the training you have been doing today, you don't have enough to protect yourself from an ordinary kunai.

*Makoto's blood began to boil from the words that Gaara spoke. It made Makoto feel inferior, a weak nobody thats just playing ninja and not living the life of one. Without holding back his emotions, Makoto began to speak.*

Makoto: I'm not a weakling! I can to protect myself from a measley kunai!!!

*Right after that emotional outburst Makoto was ready to train the Hei Suna no jutsu. Raising both of his hands infront of him, Makoto slammed them together and took control of his sand weapons that layed before him. As the sand weapons unloosened from their hardened state back to the millions of sand minerals, Makoto curled his pinky and ring-fingers of his right hand into his right palm, leaving his middle and index fingers up. With his left hand, Makoto placed his pinky and ring-fingers over their right hand counterparts, and let both middle and index fingers on each hand rest against each other. After slipping his hands into the seal for the ram, the young genin concentrated on creating a wall that is two feet tall and three feet wide. As the sand particles moved towards the ground infront of the sand genin's feet, Makoto pictured the dimensions of the wall in his mind.*

Makoto: (Since I'm making it two feet tall and three feet wide, lets make it six inches thick. That should stop any type of kunai from penetrating it...I hope!)

*The foundation of the sand wall formed against the ground then hardened, and in a blink of an eye, an one foot tall, two foot wide, and three inch thick wall of sand began to shape. As the sand minerals continued to pour into the half built wall, Makoto's legs began to vanish behind it.*

Gaara: (This kid here...hmmm!)

*As the sand wall reached the dimensions that Makoto had thought of his thighs had completely disappeared behind the wall that stood two feet tall, three feet wide, and six inches thick, but there was one last obstacle that Makoto had to overcome.*

Makoto: Hei Suna no jutsu!!!

*With those words spoken, Makoto's sand began to compress together hardening the two foot wall of sand into a defensive weapon for the young sand genin to use.*

Makoto: (It's working...now to add more so it covers me completely from head to toes.)

*After Makoto finished his thoughts he begun to add more sand to the already hardened wall to increase it's height. As the wall continued to increase in height at speeds that could match his own, Makoto's chakra begun to drain gradually to sustain the wall and harden it simultaneously.*

Makoto: (Damn it...I'm almost at my limit...shit!)

Gaara: (Hmmm...the speed of the sand is starting to slow down, he must be almost at his limit. Now to finish it!)

*All of a sudden Gaara, moving his hand slowly, picked up the kunai that he laid on the ground earlier when the training started and grasped it tightly in his right hand. Makoto seen the Kazekage raising the kunai over and behind his head, preparing to launch the kunai towards Makoto.*

Makoto: (Oh shit!!!)

*As soon as Makoto noticed the posing threat he reacted by speeding up the defensive wall. Draining all but a little of his remaining chakra, Makoto recited a certain number of words as the kunai was thrown out of Gaara's hand and sped towards Makoto's chest.*

Makoto: Hei Suna no jutsu!!!

SFX: CLANK!!!

*As the kunai pierced the sand wall, Makoto used the last ounces of his chakra to harden the sand wall. As his chakra transformed millions of minerals into a indestructible force field, the kunai stopped dead in it's tracks. Standing on the other side of the wall, opposite of the Kazekage and the kunai, Makoto panted heavily from exhausting his chakra supply. A smirk stretched across his face as his eyes rolled to the back of his head. Slowly slipping into unconciousness, Makoto began to mumble something under his breath.*

Makoto: ...told...you...I'm not...wea......k!!!

*Seeing the tired genin falling backwards, Gaara sent a soft patch of sand to Makoto's aid before he hit the ground hard.*

Gaara: (Hmmm...he formed a perfect Hei Suna. I guess the training earlier really did work out...I see a strong sand shinobi in this kid...a strong one indeed.)

Day 6: Part One
Reaching The Breaking Point

Makoto: Zankuha no Jutsu!!!

As the wind began to flow towards his opponent, Makoto did not hear the sounds of fear but only the sounds of laughter.

Kids: Ha ha ha ha ha!!!

Makoto: Why are you guys all laughing at me? You should be peeing in your pants by my awesome powers, what gives???

Kid #1: Ha ha ha...look down.

Makoto seen the kid pointing at him and telling him look down. As Makoto's head slowly tilted downward, a shocking look fell upon his face. His eyes shot open wide as his mouth opened to it maximum.

Makoto: What the hell!!! Nooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Waking up in a cold sweat, Makoto pulled off his covers only to find out that his pants were still on.

Makoto: Whew! It was only a dream...luckily it wasn't real. What time is it?

Makoto turned his head to the right to see that the clock said 6:37a.m.

Makoto: Hmmm...might as well start early today because this new jutsu may be hard to learn.

After hoping out of his bed and folding his blanket, Makoto headed into the bathroom and brushed his teeth. After about 2 minutes, Makoto walked out of the bathroom and put on his training weights and with a flick of his wrist, his beloved sand gourd exploded from across the room and towards him. While the sand traveled towards Makoto, he turned around as if he did not suspect the sand to swallow him whole, but instead of swallowing him the sand gourd formed on his back and filled itself full of sand. It added another 50lbs of weight to Makoto's overall weight, but Makoto did not mind it at all. It was like adding more training weights to him. By himself Makoto weighed 157lbs, but with the extra weights, he was trucking a whopping 267lbs of Sunaton warrior.

Makoto: Lets start with push-ups.

After stretching a bit, Makoto layed down on the floor and started to count as he pushed up off the floor and layed back down.

Makoto: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,.........26,......47,...........68,..........98, 99, 100!!!

Standing up, the muscles in Makoto's arms began to tense up and tighten as he walked up to his refridgerator and look in it.

Makoto: Aww man, we got some apple juice, some purple stuff, oh yeah...Sunny D!!!

Makoto took a refreshing gulp of Sunny D and ran out the door. While Makoto sprinted to his favorite training grounds, he thought about the beautiful jutsu scroll that was in his pocket.

Makoto: I can't wait to start!

Makoto's thighs began to burn from all the weight that it was holding while Makoto jogged down the roads.

Makoto: Whewwww!!! Feel the burn!!! Time for a shortcut.

While jogging towards a shop cart, Makoto hopped ontop of it and jumped to the roof of a building. Utilizing a little of his chakra, he allowed it to dance on his leg muscles to stimulate them and allow Makoto to speed up his strides. As the distance in every stride continued to increase with every step, Makoto reached the training grounds in no time at all.

Makoto: Made it, but I'm a little tired now. Break first, train next.

Makoto walked up to a near by tree, sat down, and reached into his pocket.

Makoto: Ahhh yes! The good 'ole scroll...I wonder how it works.

The young shinobi opened up the sealed scroll like it was a Christmas gift.

Air Projectiles
Name: Tama tei no Jutsu
Type: C Rank, Ninjutsu, Offensive, Defensive, short-mid range
Availability: 1
Element: Wind
The jutsu produces forces of are capable of knocking down opponents or stopping oncoming objects in motion.

After reading the scroll, Makoto began to think of ways of training this new jutsu as he eyed a large boulder that broke off the edge of a cliff.

Makoto: Hmmm...It would seem that hand seals aren't required...Great! Well, let's begin!!!

OOC: Increased Speed, Strength, and Stamina

Day 6: Part Two
Reaching The Breaking Point

Makoto stood up from his break and dusted himself off. As the dirt and loose rocks fell from his clothes a gust of dry wind with sand particles brushed across his face. Trickles of sweat mixed together with trace amounts of dirt that collected on his forehead streamed down towards his cheeks, and stopped at the edge of his chin before dropping to the ground below like the great big boulder that lay before him.

Makoto: Well...lets get started with concentrating my chakra with my elemental affinity, wind.

Makoto began by spreading his feet apart shoulder width and concentrating his chakra all over his body. As his chakra began to leak out, Makoto compressed it to where it became like another layer of skin. While this compression went on, Makoto felt the air around his legs and thighs collect together. The air around his head and shoulder did the same which caused a race towards Makoto's stomach between the top and bottom halves of his body. As the race continued, Makoto couldn't help but to think about a similar feeling.

Makoto: This is just like my Zankuha...collecting airwaves with my chakra and exerting it.

While Makoto pondered, his chakra finished it's race and completely covered his body. Air was collecting all over his body making Makoto feel like he wasn't wearing anything at all.

Makoto: It feel as if I could fly if I were to jump!!!

This light-weight feeling was overcome by a weird eerie sensation that Makoto felt before. All of a sudden the wind stopped blowing, the sand lay still, and then...

Makoto: It's time...Tama Tei no Jutsu!!!

An invisible force of air blew in front of the young shinobi causing the sand before him to rise from it's dormant sleep and into a raging uproar. All of two seconds passed by before the chaotic events turned peaceful. Makoto's jutsu cleared out the rocks that were next to his feet and blew them one meter in front of him. As he marveled at what he done, he couldn't stop himself from challenging his power.

Makoto: It's able to produce forces that are capable of knocking down opponents or stopping oncoming objects in motion...so moving these rocks would have been the knock down part but stopping oncoming objects in motion...hmmm!

Makoto took a rest on the ground and pondered how he could train the stopping oncoming objects aspect of the jutsu. As he gazed upon the dry barren landscape, Makoto noticed cacti sticking petruding out of the desert sand.

Makoto: How can cacti survive out here? It's dry, hot, and the get pelted with sand day in and day out....

Then it hit him! The wind picked up and the sand started to move again towards the cacti.

Makoto: THATS IT!!! I will use my sand against myself and try to stop it with my new jutsu. Makoto you're a genius!

Makoto looked side to side to make sure nobody seen him talking to himself.

Makoto: Yep! Pure genius!

Jumping up to his feet and flicking his wrist, Makoto commanded his sand five meters in front of him.

Makoto: Ok, this is going to be chakra consuming so I'll start off small first.

Utilizing his gift of controlling sand, Makoto created two shurikens using his Suna Heiki no Jutsu. After compressing the loose sand particles to harden both shuriken, Makoto took a deep breath and launched them towards his chest.

Makoto: Here we go!!!

As the sand shuriken made their way towards the genin's chest area Makoto concentrated on his chakra in order to pull off his new jutsu. By focusing his chakra to cover his body, Makoto felt the air around him start to collect once more. The sand shuriken were only 3 meters in front of him now and Makoto was still warming up his jutsu.

Makoto: Come on...come on!!!

The air around Makoto started to collect at a faster pace than the first time, due to the adrenaline pumping in the young warrior's body but Makoto couldn't take it! Now two meters away, the young shinobi let out a burst of air towards the sand shuriken.

Makoto: Tama Tei no Jutsu!!!

A breeze whooshed past Makoto and sped towards the incoming harm. As the traveling wind collided with the shuriken, they started to shake and tremble but still moved forward.

Makoto: Oh shit!!!

Makoto was freaked out that his new jutsu did not work like he had wanted it to, but all of a sudden, the shuriken began to spread apart from their parallel travels at the last second. Instead of piercing Makoto's chest the shuriken grazed the eager genin's left shoulder and his right bicep before landing on the ground and crumbling into sand once again.

Makoto: Awww dammit!!!

Taking a break, Makoto tended to his injuries and thought over his mistakes.

Makoto: Ok...my timing is off and I need to use more chakra so I can create more power.
