Teaching myself Raiton [Private, Training, Raiton, D-Rank 3,151 / 3,000 wc]

Graduation to the rank of Chuunin... this meant it was time to train. There would be alot of training to do... As this would be the first step towards reattaining his prized gourd, he felt like there was no time like the present to get started. The first thing Kinzoku felt that he had to do was learn how to manipulate Raiton. he didn't plan on learning any specific moves for it; not right now, at least. His primary goal was learning his family's Jiton from the very basics. Raiton would be the first step.

Kinzoku wasn't really the type to find someone and ask them for help. He doubted that anyone here knew how to manipulate Raiton furthermore, so he decided to do this on his own. It was going to be a longer process than actually finding a teacher, but again, Kinzoku didn't think there were any Raiton users in Hinowa. He waited until a day where it was rainy and stormy to begin his training. What he planned on doing was dangerous, but it wasn't as if someone was at home worried about him, nor was it like there were anyone to mourn him if he were gone.

He was next to a lightning rod on the roof of a building that frequently got struck. To manipulate electricity and lightning he figured he first had to understand it. Long minutes and sometimes hours of concentration did he sit in the rain next to the lightning rod, concentrating his chakra, focusing his mind on nothing but Raiton. It was only because of this that he wasn't killed when lightning did strike. Kinzoku was first only able to generate sparks with hard focus. When lightning struck, slowly the sparks began to grow.

The water on the roof was a big help. Taller buildings were around, and many were staring out of the windows, wondering if he had lost his mind. What was he doing? Why was he sitting in the rain next to a lightning rod? Many were confused, but many others managed to catch on that Kinzoku was a shinobi, and this possibly had something to do with training. More minutes and more hours of concentration did he sit in the rain next to the lightning rod, concentrating his chakra, focusing his mind on nothing but Raiton. It was only because of this that he wasn't killed when lightning did strike. Kinzoku was first only able to generate sparks with hard focus. Now he was able to generate small bolts when lightning struck.

He hoped that it would rain and storm all of that day. With the thick clouds of a grey and black color above the village, it looked as if these hopes would hold true. Alot of the villagers were seated at the windows of the surrounding buildings, watching him, wondering how he wasn't killed everytime lightning struck, lighting up the area surrounding Kinzoku in bright white. More minutes and more hours of concentration did he sit in the rain next to the lightning rod, concentrating his chakra, focusing his mind on nothing but Raiton. It was only because of this that he wasn't killed when lightning did strike. Kinzoku was first only able to generate sparks with hard focus. Now he was able to generate slightly larger bolts when lightning struck.

Nearly half a day had passed. Kinzoku felt like he was making progress, even with the fact that he knew he had a really long way to go. He had nothing but time. There was no family, no girlfriend, and that squad he was on, who knew how long that would last. He felt like he was better off operating alone. The gourd was all that was on his mind. He'd properly know the way to control the Iron Sand this time around.

Kinzoku moved his arms in circular motions. When the palms touched, a stream of electricity appeared between the 2. Kinzoku moved his palms in a slow circle, concentrating to keep the stream active. When lightning struck, this added strength to the stream. Again he moved his arms in circular motions. When the palms touched, a stream of electricity appeared between the 2.

At this particular moment, the rain stopped, and it was getting darker. The clouds overhead began to clear. Kinzoku was soaked, but he didn't care. He stood, the stream between his hands remaining constant, lighting the area around him. He didn't think he needed the assistance of the rod anymore. Kinzoku moved his arms in circular motions.

Kinzoku held out his right arm. With extreme concentration he caused a bolt of lightning to appear at his shoulder. The bolt moved and pulsated around his shoulder before beginning to moved down his arm toward the forearm and wrist. The bolt eventually ended up in his hand to gather into what looked like a ball of light. Kinzoku held out his left arm next. As with his right arm, a bolt appeared at his shoulder, moving and pulsating. The bolt moved down his arm, to his forearm and wrist. The bolt gathered into a ball in his left palm. He would then cause both balls to dissipate into small particles that hung in the air several moments and disappeared.

Both arms felt a little tingly and numb. After shaking them around several moments, Kinzoku decided to repeat the process.

It was pitch dark out now, but it wasn't like someone was going to come looking for him, or that he had a curfew. he didn't want to keep the people living in the surrounding buildings awake, so he took his training off the roof and outside of the village. He'd spend the whole night out here if he had to; he wanted to master this now that he had the hang of it.
