The Younger Siblings

Chapter Four: More Training and Sibling Rivalries

"Alright, so you have to concentrate the chakra into your hand and smash the ground with all your might," Sarada was saying to Haru as they trained. 

Haru nodded, concentrating on the chakra. 

Then he smashed the ground, causing a rumble, but nothing more. 

"That's good, you're getting there," Sarada said. 

"Arrrg!" Haru shouted as he tried again, this time managed to shatter a bit of earth, but not much. 

Meanwhile, Boruto was teaching Himawari the Rasengan. 

"You have to control the chakra in your hand and make the water balloon pop," Boruto explained, then demonstrated. 

"Okay!" Himawari said, concentrating. 

Boruto knew she couldn't master it before the mission in an hour, but he knew she could get the water balloon by then. 

Meanwhile...

"You know how to create the wind, but you have to actually control it towards your target and keep it contained for the cyclone to work," Shikadi said. 

"Contained, that's my biggest problem, always has been," Takami muttered as she tried again. 

"I know, that's why I'm trying to help you, just this once," Shikadi said. 

"Right," Takami agreed, Shikadi's always been an expert at containing the chakra to keep it in the correct spot and make the justu work, but not at controlling the wind, which is what she's better at. 

As they all kept training and training, it seemed like only Himawari was making progress, until...

-----------------------------------Thirty minutes later------------------------------

"THIS ISN'T GOING TO WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Haru shouted, stomping his foot, causing the ground to rumble and when the smoke cleared, there was a clear, empty, destroyed path that stretched so far. 

"...Haru..." Sarada muttered in shock, not even Sakura could smash that much earth. 

Haru stared ahead at his destroyed path, "I-I did it." 

"Seems like you need anger," Sarada crossed her arms.  

Meanwhile...

The ground rumbled and trees were smashed as half the forest was cleared. 

"Whoa..." Shikadi muttered. 

"Seems like Haru's finally making progress," Takami said. 

"Yeah, but what about you? All you've done is blast gusts of wind, no cyclones," Shikadi said. 

"I know," Takami sighed. 

"I wonder if you really will get stronger, you can't even make any progress," Shikadi said. 

"What did you just say?!" Takami demanded, blasting wind at Shikadi, sending him flying, along with a few trees. 

"T-that was a cyclone," Shikadi muttered from where he crash-landed. 

Takami grinned, "Maybe I'm not so bad after all." 

Meanwhile (I know I've said this enough)

POP!!!

"Good, good," Boruto said. 

"When do we move on to the next step?" Himawari asked. 

Boruto smiled at his sister, she had popped her first rubber ball amazingly fast.
