Hiroshi · Posted: Mon Sep 14, 2009 11:21 am Post subject: Flame On! [Jutsu Training]

Name: Katon: Housenka no Jutsu - Mythical Fire Phoenix Technique
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: C
Requirements: None
Description: A useful, though relatively weak, fire ninjutsu. After forming several needed hand seals, the user will exhale a series of fast fireballs. These are useful to drive an opponent into a corner, towards a certain place or simply at times when quantity is better than quality.

1/9

Hiroshi was getting impatient with Shinobi life. Having finally graduated from the academy a year after most Genin of his age, he had thought that an immediate sensei would have been assigned to him so that he could join a team and finally begin the grand life of a ninja of Suna village. However, that was not the case. He snarled slightly as he cast his mind back to the conversation he had had with the academy tutor as he left the graduation ceremony.

"Don't force yourself too far forward Hiroshi, learn some new jutsu first. You need to expand your skills if you are to succeed as a shinobi."

The words had been meant in a relatively kind way by the man, but that didn't change the fact that Hiroshi wanted to do things now, he had already waited too long to begin his life as a ninja to waste his time with more training. However, he knew that despite his own wish to not have to constantly train now he had graduated, he had grudgingly accepted the reality that he would need better skills to succeed, and he might as well learn something while he waited for an assignment.

"Which is why I'm here."

Hiroshi looked around him in a full circle and saw nothing but the desert, Sunagakure a mere blip in the distance. No sandstorms showed signs of approaching in the near future, and so the young genin pulled the scroll he had borrowed out of the pouch where his kunai normally resided and opened it, ready to learn the secrets of the technique he had chosen.

2/9

"Okay, looks like it's a few hand signs and then the fire comes out. Simple enough surely?"

Hiroshi spent a few moments examining the instructions that were listed on the scroll, mentally checking off the hand seals he needed to perform to initiate the jutsu.

"Let's give you a spin then."

Hiroshi took a deep breath and held it in as his hands flitted into the signs necessary to start the jutsu before bringing his clasped hands up beneath his mouth and blowing out the breath he had held as hard as could, willing the flames to spring from his mouth out into the desert air. His eyes had been screwed shut in concentration but as he opened them and looked at the results of his labor he was shocked to see, well, nothing at all.

"You're joking me. Nothing? Seriously?"

Sighing exasperatedly, Hiroshi turned his attention back to the scroll that lay on the floor at his feet, trying to work out the reason why the supposedly simple jutsu hadn't worked.

3/9

Hiroshi read in silence for a few moments, his mind slightly bewildered as to why his attempt at the jutsu had been such a failure.

"Okay, so the hand seals were correct, so it must be that my chakra manipulation for it must have been completely off. Hmmmm, let's try that again then."

Settling himself once more, Hiroshi concentrated less on the seals that his hands were forming and instead turned his attention towards his own chakra, attempting to focus it into the breath that he had stored in his lungs and forcing the chakra out with the breath as he finished the hand seals and brought his hands up to his mouth. The breath exploded from his mouth, but there was no fire escaping with it. Hiroshi felt the air heated, but there was no fire, simply hotter air.

"I'm blowing hot air, oh the irony. Seems that guess was wrong, let's try something else then."

Steeling himself, Hiroshi focused his attention once more onto the scroll once more, his eyes searching for any hint that might help him successfully perform the jutsu.

4/9

Hiroshi attempted to center himself once more, his breathing deep as he focused on the chakra that resided within his body. Picturing the chakra as a ball of flame within his own chest, Hiroshi ran through the motions of forming the hand seals necessary to perform the technique and pictured himself blowing the fire-shaped chakra out of his mouth along with the breath that he exhaled. His eyes opened sharply as a tiny stream of fire spurted from his mouth, stretching forward for a few inches before extinguishing. He slumped slightly, surprised at the work that was involved in the learning of the technique.

"I made fire though! That's definitely a step forward. Problem is that it was a tiny stream rather than a flurry of balls, but it's a start."

Hiroshi picked up the water bottle he had brought with him to the desert and took a swig of the refreshingly cool water before dropping the bottle once more and concentrating once again on the technique he was attempting to learn.

5/9

Taking a look at the scroll once more, Hiroshi wiped a bead of sweat from his forehead before turning his attention back to the matter at hand.

"Let's try saying the name of the technique aloud and see if it makes any difference. Katon Housenka no Jutsu!"

As he shouted the words, Hiroshi formed the hand seals for the technique and focused on the chakra inside his chest, visualising it as fire and breathing sharply outwards as his clasped hands came to rest beneath his mouth. The result was a steady stream of fire that shot out from his mouth, burning the air before him as he poured more and more chakra into the stream, feeding the flames. After a few seconds he let the flame die out and almost wobbled to his knees as a small wave of exhaustion flooded over his body.

"Good, I can make the flames which means I'm one step closer to completing this jutsu."

6/9

"Okay, I have the fire now to shape it properly into these balls which I am meant to be firing."

Going through the motions once more, Hiroshi formed the seals and shouted the name of the technique, concentrating on his chakra before blowing out in small burts, attempting to form the fire into ball form and succeeding slightly. A solitary ball of flames burst from his mouth, but it was neither fast nor part of a continuous chain of balls and Hiroshi punched at the air in frustration as the ball of fire exploded into nothingness. His frustration probably wasn't helping matters, but it was impossible to feel as if he were failing in some way.

"Which I am. I need to sort this out, I don't want to have to trek back to Suna and have done this for nothing. Concentrate Hiroshi, concentrate!"

7/9

Hiroshi could feel that the training was beginning to take it's toll on him and that if he were to learn the technique, he would need to do so within the next hour or he would be out of chakra. Anger at himself and his inability to properly perform the technique smoldered within his heart and almost without thinking he formed the hand seals and shouted aloud.

"Katon Housenka no Jutsu!"

Roaring all of his frustration out with his breath and chakra, Hiroshi saw a small procession of fire balls shoot from his mouth and fizz out into the desert.

"That is more like it. Have I been mentally holding myself back? Hmmmm, time to try that one again."

8/9

Looking down at the scroll for what felt like the hundredth time, Hiroshi scanned the words to make sure he hadn't missed anything again, and when he felt confident he turned his attention inwards once more.

"So, don't just see the chakra as fire, make it feel, taste and smell like fire would. Make your chakra fire."

Breathing slowly and surely, Hiroshi concentrated on the chakra within himself and made it fire, performing the hand seals for the technique before crying it's name aloud.

"Katon Housenka no Jutsu!"

Balls of fire roared from his mouth as he breathed out, a steady stream of seven fire balls dancing off into the distance, followed closely by a yelp of relief from the young genin.

"One more time, just to make sure I have it."

9/9

Breathing heavily, Hiroshi flexed his fingers and willed himself to focus for one last time.

"Right, let's do it. Katon Housenka no Jutsu!"

Concentrating on the fire within his chest, Hiroshi formed the hand seals and spat the chakra-fuelled breath out in a series of puffs, fireballs zipping out and flaring into the desert, narrowly missing an approaching figure that Hiroshi hadn't noticed thanks to his intense concentration. He looked at the figure with a smug grin and waved a hand in greeting.

"Tetsuya, still playing with dolls?"

The approaching figure laughed at the joke before patting his friend on the back.

"So, you can finally do something useful. First time for everything I suppose. I've been sent to retrieve you, there is a nasty sandstorm inbound and we need to get back to the village and inside pronto."

"Sure thing, I'm finished here anyway."

[Jutsu finished]
