"Add a bit more chakra if you see fit. But always remember, what we're trying to accomplish here is balance. Just make sure the new chakra you're forming meshes together nicely with the chakra you've already formed. Harmonizing! That's the word!" said the male.

"Right, thank you" replied the female with a smile on her face when she realized that his answer matched hers. 'Hm...maybe he will teach me something else after this' thought Yukiko as she gathered a larger amount of the weird energy.
'I have to mix the new chakra with the old amount. Maybe I should add it as the jutsu moves on' thought the girl before the familiar chill ran down her spine. She closed her eyes as she prepared herself to do the jutsu.

Both of her hands were raised before they formed the rat handseal. 'Mind's eye release!' thought the Genin as she awakened her inner eye. 'I'll find my senpai this time' thought the female as she started to expand the vision range of her jutsu.
Her vision moved remarkably faster compared to the first time, which was a definite sign of progress. The brunette looked for ANY human-shaped things or things that had a chakra system...Atlas had perhaps disguised his chakra system.

'I think I am on the ten meter mark now' thought the girl as she approached a familiar bench that her vision had passed so many times. There was still no sign of the young man...he had probably hidden himself thirty meters away from her. She concentrated as she made her chakra expand her range a bit further.
'I still have a good bit of chakra left' thought Yukiko as her range passed the fifteen meter mark just a couple moments later. Her senpai was still not to be found yet, but she was just over half-way when it came to total range.

'Go for it Yukiko!' thought the female as she made it past the twenty meter mark. It was easier to keep up the speed since she had supplied the jtusu with chakra as the range expanded. This method was kind of hard, but it had paid off quite well.
'I've passed twenty-five now...just a little bit more now!' thought the Genin as she tried to push herself for the last five meters. It was notably harder now than before; she had to keep it up now.

Her eyebrows knit in concentration as the girl pushed her inner eye to reach the final five meters of the kagura jutsu. She was dead sure that she would find the Chuunin if she could keep up the jutsu. 'Just one more meter now...!' thought the brunette as she grit her teeth a little.
She reached the final meter and saw a chakra system that belonged to someone she knew. A smile formed on her face as she studied the surroundings to be sure.

Her feet made some light sounds as they hit the hard surface below them. It did not take long for the female before she found the male. "FOUND YOU!" exclaimed Yukiko as she had sneaked up on him from behind; she loved to scare him.
But the girl was grateful that he had learned her a jutsu like this. "Thanks for teaching me" said the Genin before she gave him a polite bow.

((OOC: Only 25 EXP to learn!? Whoa, I'm glad I have you ))

"I thought our kagura training would go well with Kumogakure's history as our backdrop. Helps bring our training to life some more, I'd say." informed the male as he patted her on the head.
"Now, I understand your sensory vision only has a range of twenty meters... right? Well, stay in place, sis. We're about to play a thirty-meter long game of hide and seek!" said Atlas before he disappeared in a flash.

The female blinked as she looked around; this place was GIGANTIC. 'Kami...it will take AGES to look through this entire area!' thought Yukiko with some despair. A familiar crow descended from the skies before it landed on her shoulders with a quizzical look in the dark eyes.
'At least I get some help' thought the girl as she started to prepare the chakra she would use. This was a bit similar to the range training she had done on the Yuki no kami jutsu.

"You know the drill. Ask me any questions if you have them. Concentrate hard, but most of all prepare your mind accordingly. Preparing is one of the most important steps, y'know!" said the young man's voice.
"Right, I'll give it a try now!" stated the Genin as she started to concentrate on the chakra amount that had been gathered in her body so far.

A familiar chill ran down her spine; this was something that always happened to the female when she concentrated medium or larger amounts of chakra. 'Open mind's eye!' thought the brunette as she shut her eyes tightly in order to open the inner one.
The mystical energy unlocked her inner eye and everything around her turned into the strange colours that appeared when you used the kagura jutsus. 'Time to find my senpai' thought the girl as she tried to make her vision range expand by tapping more chakra into it. She did not do it very quickly since this was the first attempt.

Her inner eye started to expand further into the colosseum while Yukiko tried to concentrate on the task she had been given. 'There is nothing with a functioning chakra system nearby so far...he is quite far away' thought the female. She had now managed to pass the fifteen meter mark and was halfway so far on her quest.
Her minds eye expanded a bit slower as the range started to increase; it was not very far from her current limit. 'Come on Yukiko!' thought the Genin as she knit her taupe eyebrows in a mix of concentration as well as frustration.

She started to feel that her current limit was getting closer by the second since her mind's eye expansion speed had started to slow down. 'I still have a little chakra left...maybe I can extend my total range a little if I don't do it too fast' thought the girl. Her minds eye was now at the twenty meters mark and she started to add the little chakra she had left.
The kagura jutsu would not budge at first, so the brunette decided to try one more time. The range then suddenly expanded two meters before the inner eye shut down completely.

'What happened!? I better tell this to senpai' thought the female as she opened up her eyes again. She then turned her head slightly towards the crow that sat on her shoulder; it functioned like a telephone of some sort.
"I managed to get my range two meters bigger or something, but it closed down. Can you help me please?" asked Yukiko as her eyes glanced at her surroundings for a moment.

I would like to buy these jutsus please.

Mastery for Yukina:

Consumption - Chakra Reduction I.

Chakra mastery allows the user excellent control over the chakra they use, how it's molded, and ultimately, how much is used, so much so that they can lower the chakra consumption of all mastery jutsu. When first learned, the user can cast jutsu of the Mastery class for one chakra consumption tier less than normal. Each time re-acquired, cost continues to drop by one less tier each time.

The female saw the deer stand up; it was the perfect chance to take a photo of it. "He's getting up now, si." muttered the male with a gleam in his viridian optics. "Give 'im some room. It might get a bit irritated with our presence, and I can't risk it striking at you with those antlers." said Atlas. Yukiko stepped back before she gave him a nod in return.

It seemed like it was a bit hard for the deer to stand up. But when it got its balance back, it stared on the two shinobis that stood in front of it. The girl blinked as she looked into the deep brown eyes...they made her a bit calm for some reason.
'Maybe this is the deers way to say thank you' thought the Genin as she focused at the deer. She snapped the photo, but the animal did not seem to be bothered by the flash.

"C'mon, kiddo. Let's continue heading home, hm?" said the young man with his usual smile on his face. "Yeah, I cannot wait to get home! I'm gonna show my family the photos I took and tell them about the things we saw on our journey" ranted the female as they continued on their journey back home to Kumogakure. It was early in the afternoon so they did not have to worry about the darkness that would arrive later on.

"Hey...is not that the gate area senpai?" asked the brunette as she saw some ANBU's at the top of the hill in front of them. They had walked in a steep area for a rather long time now, so it did not surprise her that much.
She felt a little sad too since their journey was about to come to an end. But it would be good to see all of her family members again. Did the Chuunin next to her feel the same?

"Can we do a mission like this again soon senpai? I want to see other countries too, like Hi no Kuni or Mizu no Kuni. Have you visited those countries?" inquired the girl as they walked up towards the gates.
She could not go anywhere without someone who was preferably 20 years old or above. But Yukiko would not force him to go with her; the best thing would be if they could travel to unknown countries together.

"We need to get it some help, quick. Though the bleeding doesn't look serious, it risks obtaining an infection." said the male with a rather serious voice. 'Infection?' thought the female as she raised her eyebrow; she have had ear infections but wound infections was something unknown to her.
He then did a handseal before ten strong crows emerged from his sleeve. All of them scattered as they flied further into the forest, probably looking for help.

"Ugh, I hate seeing it like this... Its leg is causing it intense pain. We need to find some way to ease it." said Atlas as he looked at the poor animal that had been caught in the barbed wire.
"I don't think I have anything to help. Wait, I think I do!" said Yukiko as she remembered the first-aid kit that her parents had sent with her. She placed the backpacker on the ground and looked for the toilet map that might contain something that could help them.

"I'm not sure if we can use band-aids, but I have something that can clean the wound plus a pair of tweezers. And I can use some hyouton chakra in case we have to cool down something" informed the girl as she looked into the toilet map.
She hoped that the crows would return soon so the deer could get the help they needed from a vet or the ranger. "But we have to make sure that the deer does not get up...we cannot help it if it runs away" said the Genin. This was a new situation for her since she had never seen an injured deer in real life.

'I wonder how the deer got that barb wire around its leg in the first place. More animals can be in danger' thought the female as she scanned her surroundings for something that could give her a clue about this.
But her eyes did not see anything that was close to them...at least for now. But the young man next to her probably had an idea of what they should do about this. Maybe he had been in a similar situation before?

"Of course I'll find some time for you. No matter what, okay? I won't let my imoutosan be paired up beside any disrespecting teens- best believe that." said the male with a soothing tone to his voice.
"OK" said the female as she sat down; she hoped that he could keep his promise to her. She finished the first slice of bread in a couple of minutes since her appetite was back to almost normal now.

"Don't worry about those Yukina techniques, it's no biggie. But I'll tell you what- first thing we're going to do when we get back and receive our reward is hop to our training, hm? How does that sound?" said Atlas with a smile.
"Do you think we can continue the day after tomorrow? I need to rest a little bit" replied Yukiko as she started on the second slice...these long travels were more tiring on her than him.

But the girl was happy that he wanted to continue his lessons in the ways of the Mind's eye; perhaps she could use it in conjunction with her kirigakure no jutsu. "I'm also becoming an Academy Teacher, by the way. So teaching will, hopefully, be right up my alley." muttered the young man with his usual smile.
"I think you're pretty good. You taught me several jutsus in just a couple of months" stated the Genin with a small smile on her young face.

"I'm going up to pack now" informed the female before she gave the waitress a bow. She then went up to the hotel room they shared to pack down all the luggage that had been removed from the backpacker. 'Let's see...I think that should be about it. We need to get home to Kumogakure now, but we have plenty of time' thought the brunette as she looked down on her wrist watch.
The arms on the watch told her that the current time was 08:30 AM. Which meant that they had six hours to get back to the hidden village in the clouds.

The girl went down to the lobby once she was finished to wait for the young man who traveled with her. 'Free newspaper!' thought Yukiko as she saw an edition of today's newspaper laying on a nearby table.
She rarely read them; some of the few reasons she read them was the comics plus checking when the anime shows ran. Her brothers could not read properly yet, but they were getting there. 'Yay, it's a special episode tonight!' thought the female when she read the TV program.
