I felt uncomfortable as I sat in the middle of the field in a split, having not done my own personal training for a month of so, I breathed out evenly as I leaned forward, holding onto my ankle as I pulled myself further towards my leg that was stretched out in front of me. I let go and readjusted, copying my actions with the other leg before allowing myself to come to a stand. I stretched my arms and back, before taking a deep breath and bringing my hands up.
ninja art; poisonous flower
The flowers in the field began to float, breaking form their stems and admitting a purple mist before they began to spin and shoot out forward, hitting the tree that stood there. I breathed out calmly, watching the flowers that hadn't hit the tree begin to slow down and the mist disappeared before they fell to the grass softly. I brought up my hands once more, taking a calming breathe just as I began to do the next set of handsigns.
lightning style; lightning fist
lightning surrounded my fist, traveling all the way up to my shoulder, I took a deep breath and built up chakra into my fist before bringing my hand down towards the grassy ground, once my first hit the ground, cracks began to form and the ground overturned, lightning ripping apart the ground effortlessly and crumbled it into a fine sand type texture. purple lightning continued to bounce over the ground as I cancelled my chakra and stopped the jutsu, taking a breath once more I shook my hands feeling the lightning remain in my fingertips.
"You're holding back" I snapped my head to the side, spotting Gaara standing there. My jaw slackened at his sudden appearance, taking an abrupt intact of air as his voice sent a chill down my spine in surprise.
"I don't want to destroy the village with a mere training session" I mused, resting my hands on my hips as I turned my body towards him.
"I want you to be there, when I'm officially made Kazekage" I tilted my head.
"of course, is there a specific time set?" He shook his head.
"in a few weeks, I'll send word of when it will be, I also heard you took in another child?" I raised a hand to the back of my neck, rubbing it gently.
"he's currently with Ren at the academy, it was a sudden request to take him in"
"has he settled in well?" I nodded.
"he seems to get along well with the others, very smart but I guess that is to be expected" I spoke gently, walking over towards him, sighing gently to myself.
"Where did he come from?" I pursed my lips at the question, would Gaara understand?
"his father wanted him to have a safe upbringing, he wasn't born in any village"
"rogues." I nodded.
"It's nice of you to offer a safe place for people who have defected, it's nice to know that someone out there in this world is thinking of children born from rogues"
"you don't seem bothered by the news"
"who am I to judge how you run your village?" I snorted, nodding in understand.
"on another note. He calls me mommy"
"He what?!"
