Teaching Our Graduates[Mission]

[Chae]

Beneath the rustic fires of orange and red within Kumogakure's ambiance proudly stood Ayumu. Standing just outside of Kumogakure's mission compound his fingers intermingled, locking together like shackles on a chain as they vertically stretched. He arced his back and lifted his body upon the tips of his toes in the same, single motion.

"Today seems more sunny than usual, I guess this is a good thing given how much it rained over the past couple of days.

Emanating a alleviating sigh, hos body relaxed once more as his faded blue irises flickered across the landscape, taking in the cultivated activity that Kumo incessantly thrummed with.This was his home, his pride, his own place of solace and respite; he loved every inch and atom that comprised Kumogakure. After having stretched his body from recently awakening from his nightly slumber, he was ready to press on with his mission. The day was young, just beginning in fact, but even so life ceased to stop within Kumo's walls.

Roaming citizens waved occasionally towards Ayumu, well, they did so to all of Kumogakure's shinobi, they were their protectors, their knights. Respectfully Ayumu waved back, greeting the passerby's with smiles of his own. Without wasting a further moment Ayumu set out, roaming the streets himself, making his way to Kumo's ninja academy.

Kumogakure no Sato needs to further prosper by teaching our newly graduated shinobi several things. Shunshin, Ninjutsu arts, Taijutsu arts, Genjutsu arts and any other ninja world arts that exist today. For if we don’t train our prospering children whom desire nothing more than to serve Kumogakure no Sato, then we as a village are lost. So you as a well trained and gradated shinobi will take time to show our newly recruited techniques. Make sure to explain to them how one prospers under such an art. Teach them various things, for if you fail, we as a village will fall.

Before long -while guiding through crowds- he looked over his missions scroll from the compounds attendant, absorbing the information regarding the task now at hand as he re-read it. He were to teach his fellow Kumogakure shinobi, though they were just academy students his inferiority complex attempted to come into play, yet, its presence remained absent, but why? Easy, he was one of those academy students who satiated and clouded their hearts and mind with vengeance and hate, two near ineluctable influences within the life of a ninja. The chains of pain and hate seemed endless. And though at times its dark charm is suppressed within a great many, never can it be fully extinguished from ones own heart.

Ayumu's light skin beamed with rays of brilliance as the sun forced itself upon his body. Indulged within his own thoughts, he brooded silently upon war, violence and everything he lost to it. He remembered the way it robbed him of a father and older brother. His brother died protecting not only the Raikage himself but Kumogakure and its honor, its pride, he fought for it until the last breath that crawled from his lungs. And just like that memories blossomed and visions sprouted.

His ears had always been cursed, cursed to hear the screams and wails of those who now slept beneath the soils of Kaminari, to see the pained faces of those whose fought valiantly only to become victims of war through mental images as they died in the thousands. He wished not for this to ever happen again, he'd grow stronger, to create a force that opposes all acts of war.

Upon the planes of reality Ayumu's feet carried him away from the Raikage's mission compound office, seemingly in a subconscious manner as his mind fluttered about. Soon he came upon Kumogakure's ninja Academy, where the sensei -a jounin -had practically been waiting for Ayumu to arrive. Fun and games was over, it was time for work. It was quite a walk from point A to point B, so much so that the once rustic, yellow rays now adopted a dark orange tinge as the sun submitted its power to the rising moon.

"Ah, looks like this walk took longer than I expected. Haha no problem i'll still make it!

Lowly he spoke to himself as the Jounin guided him the the classroom where his temporary students resided. Recalling upon the missions information, it was specifically a class of recent graduates that needed to be indoctrinated in a technique of any kind-of course something superior than what is taught within academy classrooms. Though the arts of Ninjutsu had not been his strong suit, he held a strong resolve and might in the art of close quarters combat with Taijutsu. Yes, it was settled, he would introduce this class of graduate students the art of Tenjou no Shuuren.

His hands arose, gliding through his hair like whispering winds through trees as he finally arrived at the room with the instructor opening the door for him, a true comrade. Ayumu nodded to the jounin as he stepped within the room, his faded blue eyes fell upon the class, it was equally comprised of both male and female from what he could initially tell. Standing in front of the class itself, his proud eyes flickered left and right, glancing over each and every face which Ayumu saw nothing more than Kumogakure's future. A group of shinobi who would soon surpass Ayumu's generation. Ayumu, during his academy days was by far no genius, but nor was he less intelligent, nevertheless he knew what it felt like to be passed by others and being left behind, truthfully he knew it all too well.

Genteelly he stepped towards the class and stopped at a proper distance, enough so that those within the back rows would find it difficult not to hear whatever he'd need to say. The uchiha name carried weight with it no matter how far it went, this was evident at how Kumogakure housed several Uchiha, yet, nearly the entire classroom popped with surprised irises as Ayumu proudly revealed to the classroom, his birthright.

"Uhm hehe, Hello everyone, My name is Ayumu Uchiha....Today, I am here on behalf of the Raikage. I've been sent here to teach you a thing or two. I'm sure most of you have been shown and taught the standard forms of jutsu, so today, as a reward for successfully graduating, I will be demonstrating a advanced Taijutsu technique hailing from a style known as 'Tenjou no Shuuren. "

Suddenly, nearly cutting off Ayumu's speech, soft wails of what sounded like a flow of primordial tears emanated from a boy in the middle row, Ayu wondered what could have been the matter. According to the instructor he was a failing student, this was also something that Ayu could personally cope with. Ayu, during his own academy days was by far no genius, but nor was he less intelligent, nevertheless he knew what it felt like to be passed by others and being left behind, truthfully she knew it all to well. Slowly he approached the boy, hunkering at his side as he patted and rubbed at his shoulders, comforting him with words of encouragement and extolment.

"Hey there, the instructor told me everything, and there is no need to feel down, about yourself, I was the same way back in my academy days. It sucks to fall behind but you have to keep trying harder. Also I have something for you!"

[Chae]

The boy removed his head being buried beneath the folds of his arms, it was a sign that she was beginning to earn his trust already. Why would he not, both were precious children of Kumogakure, and as such already held some form of bond even if it were just built out of inhabiting a commonplace. Salty liquids one by one spilled from the boys eyes, as he looked into Ayu's own; he gave him a bright smile and a soft infectious laugh as he too let out a chuckle.

"Now C'mon, I gotta technique to show you all, and you my friend will be my test dummy hehe!

He waved his hand in a motion that foreshadowed his desire for him and the class to follow as Ayu stepped out of the room, leaving the instructor to his tedious paperwork. He cast a quick glance over her shoulder back towards the class as she took off in a playful sprint, they followed suit and ran as well. Giggling and brimming with joy they came to the academy's training courtyard, which was filled with wooden dummies and shelves of various armaments. Ayu took a deep breath, basking in the gloriously warm airs of Kumogakure.

Yosha! lets get started. So Tenjou no Shuuren, the most basic technique of Tenjouken, this lays the foundation for the entirety of the style. It is a training of the body and a utilization of it to its utmost potential. Though not on the levels of the chakra-enhanced strength utilized by medic-nin, practitioners of Tenjouken have amazing physical power and speed with which to back it up. They focus on hitting hard and fast using efficient maneuvers. However, their training does not only cover offense; their bodies are extremely enduring and efficient.

Many would think that teaching a failing student would be a great burden or a boring task to have to take on, but only in the eyes of those who lacked faith of their village, but not Ayu. Despite having a superiority complex with the various classes of people within Kumogakure, a great sense of faith and hope burned brightly for them all. From his perspective he saw training a failing student and a class as little more than a blessing, because not only would it show great leadership and instructor skills but it also shows the kindness and patience he has with those who lack in certain areas. His ninja resume would be pretty badass.

Continuing onward with his Tenjou no Shuuren demonstration, both legs gave one another space like an arguing couple, spreading vertically about a single meter. His legs crouched every so slightly, locking in her balance with iron weight. His hands took a guarding stance as he soon thrust forward with rapid succession, the boy and class paid attention with great focus, mirror her movements as he performed them at a steady pace.

"This technique is called Strike guard. When fighting against another Taijutsu user, Tenjouken users find that the best defense is in a good offense. That is, when they are put on the defense, they instead attack. When moving to guard an attack, instead of simply blocking or swatting the attack away, they strike at the body of the incoming attack in order to stop it, this disrupts the flow of your opponents movements, and robs them of their power and momentum.

The class heeded Ayu's advice as they continually nodded as he went on, all they needed to do now was practice. Teaching someone was easy, but if they really want to become proficient at something then they must practice, getting stronger demands effort.
