[Training Bloodline Jutsu: Rank C: Jukai Heki [Dense Woodland Wall] Post 3/3: Jutsu Achieved]
Senju Coheed Tokimoru:
"It is difficult for a fool's habits to change to selflessness. ... Because we do most things relying only on our own sagacity we become self-interested, turn our backs on reason, and things do not turn out well."
 Beginning once more the genin would plot out the handsigns that he had so carefully transcribed, extending the length of the final signal until the branches stormed out from under the ground in the exact fashion that the man wanted. His hand reached forward and he made a sweeping motion, the fence growing and tightening until it wrapped around him, acting as a fence to keep himself in and others out, then bounding to create a second enclosure over the tree he had made the target of his first jutsu.
"Got it." He exclaimed to himself as his fist clenched and the weave of the branches tightened around him and the tree.
A few seconds later he released his hand and the weave relinquished, before crumbling down into the ground from which he had spawned it. The ground looked undisturbed but for a few tossed stones and a bit of dirt displaced near the tree. Closing his eyes he sighed and moved his hands outward, his stance that of calming himself.

[Training Bloodline Jutsu: Rank C: Moku Shouheki no Jutsu [Wood Barrier Technique] Post 1/3]
Senju Coheed Tokimoru:
"It is difficult for a fool's habits to change to selflessness. ... Because we do most things relying only on our own sagacity we become self-interested, turn our backs on reason, and things do not turn out well."
Coheed would now take a moment and find himself sitting once more, eyes studying over the scrolls once more. Moku Shouheki no Jutsu [Wood Barrier Technique] was the next item that awaited him on the list of interests, and while he hated to admit it, these things felt hollow to him, without his family to stand by him and train him in the way they had learned the gift, but soon he was reminded of how they weren't there to help him or prevent the Uchiha assault on him and the shrine he kept. He felt the rage creeping up within him and slowly had to push it away as he instead focused on the moment at hand.
"One step at a time, training, then vengeance." He told himself as he began to fire off hand seals, three, then five, a portion of a small wooden dome appearing on the ground some thirty feet in front of him, then withering away.
"Damnit." He whispered.

"It is difficult for a fool's habits to change to selflessness. ... Because we do most things relying only on our own sagacity we become self-interested, turn our backs on reason, and things do not turn out well."
Again he would have to make the handsigns, and this time he ducked low as he did so, turning on his heel as the wooden support appeared three-quarters of the distance he had expected it to be. His eyes closed for a moment as he rewound the moment in his head, thinking of where his jutsu failed he smiled. It wasn't that he was failing it now, he was getting a tight enough grip on his bloodline and the signs to call for his jutsu, it had to be the fact that his bloodline was awakening to the things it could do. Slowly it was maturing, and his constant prying was bringing it to the light faster than some would have expected it in his current situation.
"Time for a third shot at this, seems the third time is the charm when working with these Mokuton." He continued, thinking aloud now as he knelt down to the ground making the hand seals, pushing it them down to the ground afterwards.

xxxxKinpaku Isshinxxxx  Arrival into the academy was quick. She'd intended to come in the first place, and now, she wasn't going to waste time. She'd begin teaching the weapons girl her technique, in hopes it'll take with her to begin with. Then atop it, the Oni hoped that the green boy had come to the academy before anything else happened. Nevertheless, she was correct in her guess. The boy, who's name escaped her due to memory lane, was practicing. A senju, at the very least, as he was performing mokuton. Wood use, at the very least. Good indicator. "A mask for every situation..."
"And a performance for every soul."

Senju Coheed Tokimoru:
"It is difficult for a fool's habits to change to selflessness. ... Because we do most things relying only on our own sagacity we become self-interested, turn our backs on reason, and things do not turn out well."
Now as his hands pressed into the ground, following the hand seals, a third attempt at the technique was pushed, a thin barrier of amethyst smoke flowing over the ground as beams progressed out of it, the sound of several pillars smashing together, creating a full cover over the second attempt. The genin within smiled and his hands reached up, touching the wooden beams overhead. A smile formed on his lips as he did so, taking in each moment of the sensations, feeling his own chakra within the wood, it gave him pleasure.
"I've done it, I'm realizing the powers of the first Hokage, slowly but surely..." He said as he withdrew his hands, his words muffled to the outside world due to the dome overhead.
With a reversal of his handsigns and the withdrawal of his chakra he watched the wooden beams part and fall back into the ground, his eyes squinting as he came out into the light after a few moments in the darkness.
Ryo:0 両 ‡ AC: 0 ‡ Chakra [305/305]
Edit: As the barrier fell from around him, Coheed Senju turned to face the Raikage, giving a small bow of honor as he saw her. He would slowly walk in her direction, the smile that had been plastered on his face replaced with a small sense of trepidation. The closer he got to her the closer he hoped to be to his aspirations.
"Raikage, good to see you again." He continued, his eyes failing to meet hers as he kept his head lightly inclined.

[Far too lazy to format right now. xD Please excuse rather... shameful replies, should you get any.]
Observing the Senju work his chakra given to him, the Raikage settled herself on a step, watching. Not the most dignified of situations, when it came to someone of her status, but that mattered little. When he had finally noticed her, it seemed the boy had learned yet another technique. Good news.
"Hello there," she called cheerfully, worrying little about her horns as she normally would. Any foreigner could plead for allegiance, but to go through the efforts to become trusted... Well, that was a true bit of glory to be earned. He was a rather plain looking fellow. Good for a ninja. "Right... Again. Mind mentioning your name once more? I had been a little... Preoccupied."

"It is difficult for a fool's habits to change to selflessness. ... Because we do most things relying only on our own sagacity we become self-interested, turn our backs on reason, and things do not turn out well."
"Senju Coheed Tokimoru, former resident of Konohagakure." The genin replied as he looked up towards the Raikage, his head still inclined as he spoke.
A small blush came to his face as he realized she had been watching him through the time he had been practicing his jutsu, though he quickly recomposed himself and settled more to the matter at hand. He straightened his spine, his shoulders popping as he squared them. He then gave one more step forward, scabbard of his tachi held in hand and slowly inclined the weapon towards her, giving a nod, before he knelt and proffered it up slightly.
"Genin of the Village Hidden Among Clouds, and loyal servant to the Raikage. Allowing me to seek shelter here and heal from the affront I faced without question in Konohagakure, as well as allowing me to continue my education in the Academy, albeit at a years delay has secured my sword by your side." He said without hesitation, a speech made, unscripted, and honest to his word.

The once white wraps that covered his hands and forearms, were now dirty and browned with use, the knuckles were encrusted with blood. Yet the young boy struck the dummy with the same intensity and conviction that he had when had first started his training. His hands hurt and his knuckles near the brink of breaking but he did not stop. With each blow, splinters flew from the training object and into his face but he did not stop his rhythm. Thud. Thud. Thud. That was the sound the came from each blow in one second increments. He paid no attention to anyone that was currently in the area. Tunnel vision was what it was at the moment. Keeping focused on the object in front of him. The sound of his fist crashing through the remainder of the dummy broke him from his entranced like state. He took a deep breath as he looked at his fists in disgust. They were ravaged and that was only a warmup. OoC: Technique in Use: Chakra Pool:175/175 Ryo:両 0 AC:0

Ryo:1100 両 ۞ AC: 2350
Kein stood on the balcony over looking the first floor and watched the events with the Senju in green unfold below him. When he saw the Raikage below he decided that he should report on the training with his cousin. He gathered up the remnants of his broadswords holster and slung it over his shoulder with the sword and tucked his torn kimono under his arm and jumped over the railing and landed with a small thud. He set his sword and kimono down and laid the pieces of leather on the pile and knelt before the Raikage and said," Milady I have a report for you."

Retriving the scrolls for the bakijutsu style of Juurai Toorima Takeru walks over th the trainning area.Reading the nest scroll in line he laughs not knowing what this technique would be good for but oh well he will learn it. Walking to a small gap in the training room he pulls out a thin peice of fabric. imbueing it with his chakra the fabric becoms the same size and width of him. Grabbing on to it he runs swiftly and jumps into the air as he just falls back to the ground confused.
[1/4]
After re reading the scroll he think he knows what he did wrong as he picks up the small fabric again holding it between his index and middle fingers. After imbueing it with chakra he tries to glid over the gap again this time making it half way before falling. Getting up from the dirt he dusts himself off and walks back to the original area.
[2/4]
Smiling to himself he picks up the fabric once again and laughs as he imbues it eith chakra. After he makes sure its the right size and width he charges the gap. Jumping into the air he holds on as he glides well over the needed distance landing smoothly on the ground.
[3/4]
Takoage no Waza learned
[4/4]
Reading the next scroll he walks over to a corner alone. Making sure his is alone he tosses down a smoke pellet as it releases a purple smoke. Covering his mouth he allows the smoke to sit for a bit before he opens a window allowing it to disperse.
[1/4]
After it disperces he tosses down another pellet as he allows this one to do the same as before. however this time he places a small rodent caught in a cage in the smoke as he watches to see the efeccts. After the rodent goes unconius he dispersces the smoke keeping the rodent alive.
[2/4]
Tossing anothe pellet down he sighs as he feels that this is rather boring but knows the technique could come in handy. After he allows the smoke to sit he dosperces it the same way as the other two. Walking over to the scrolls he places this on away picking up the next one.
[3/4]
Biransei Endan no Jutsu learned
[4/4]
After reading the next scroll Takeru smiles and looks at a training dummy. As he sets his eyes on it he tosses down a smoke pellet covering his form and movements. After tossing three more smoke pellets at the feet of the dummy he makes his move as he appears behind the dummy drawing his sword. As it sings through the air he stops it just at the neck area of the dummy. Once the smoke clears however he finds the he was just a few feet behind his actual target.
[1/4]
After returning to the orignial starting area he trys again. Begining with blurring his person with the smoke pellets. After thats he decids to toss two of the poison pellets down blinding the enemy as he makes his move coming in for the kill. he swings his katana towards the neck area of the target as he stops it just before hitting and returns to th starting area.
[2/4]
Smiling he tosses down a smoke pellet bluring his motions as he tosses two more at the feet of his target. As the target is distracted Takeru appears behind him as he swings his sword this time with on full swing. Waiting there for a scond the sound of the dummys head hitting the floor tells him his hit was true.
[3/4]
Funkei no Jutsu learned

xxxxKinpaku Isshinxxxx "Tokimoru, huh? A fine name." Kinpaku watched him with care. He followed respectful habits, a good bit for her to have about. He wasn't one to sit there and let things be though, he seemed uptight. Tied to tradition. Perhaps it was the fact that she herself was a black sheep of sorts in her own family, which made her grin so. The flask she kept upon her hip was pulled, and a swig was pulled rightly from that. Oh... The balance was ever important.
"You've spent your time here, and for that, I can be grateful to see another Senju in the village. Come to think of it, I think we have more Senju blood here, than in Konoha itself," Kinpaku mused, as she foraged a moment through her sleeve. Ji'e'Toh occupied the two sleeves, which made the labor more difficult than ever. At long last, she pulled free a band, the plate inscribed with a cloud. She held it flat in her palm before the young man. "Take it. I think you've earned it with your work ethic alone."
Then of course, Kein showed up. He looked a bit tired. Likely he'd been showing his cousin the ropes real well, but nevertheless! She looked over to the dark haired young man in blue and white. "Yes, Kein?" she spoke softly, another pull from the flask. Was this why her kin drank so much? To avoid responsibility much like this one?"A mask for every situation..."
"And a performance for every soul."

Kein nodded and said," Sin is learning at startling speed. He is able to breath fire now. His sharingan is yet to awaken but he is on his way. I can do nothing more for him. The rest is in the hands of fate now." He was proud of his cousin. He wondered if his cousins sharingan would evolve as fast as his own did or if it would take longer to do it.

Senju Coheed Tokimoru:
"It is difficult for a fool's habits to change to selflessness. ... Because we do most things relying only on our own sagacity we become self-interested, turn our backs on reason, and things do not turn out well."
"Actually my given name is Coheed, Raikage. Senju is my clan, my direct line is the Tokimoru." The man said as he gladly accepted the band from her and wrapped it around his upper right arm, nodding to her before he moved back from her, offering one more bow before he returned to work.
"Thank you for your vote of confidence, Raikage-sama." He finished before he turned to the side and withdrew to the grounds he had been studying on prior. "I look forward to speaking with you again in the future."
He would of course return to his studies, pulling out the scroll of transcribed jutsu, scanning the item over for a few minutes before attempting to begin them once again. Setting his feet forward he let his chakra continue to course through him, pushing the chakra to his hands as he began forming hand seals, eyes closing a moment in formed concentration. When he opened them wood had begun to crawl up his body, covering his feet, waist, chest, then arms. When it finally reached his face he chuckled, a puff of amethyst colored smoke appearing in front of him.
"Interesting."
[1/3]
As the cloud of chakra infused smoke faded away a replica of Kein would be standing a few meters off in the distance from the real article, tilting his head sideways somewhat as he looked over what was presumably his own 'gear' laying on the ground. When he moved a step closer, the form rattled however, making it obvious he was in another form. His hands would begin to shake a little as he moved to stare into them, turning his palms up he looked down into them, then turning his palms back he lifted his shoulders, letting them pop in his characteristic manner, before he turned to stare over at the real Kein, realizing he spoke of the sharingan. Immediately he dropped the form of the man, the wooden pieces of his costume falling to the ground in front of him where he kicked them away.
[2/3]
"To think I wore his skin..." The Senju exclaimed as he kicked the wooden slats away from his feet.
Shaking his head he turned back to the situation at hand and once more cast the hand seals and allowed for a second form to come and cover his own body, this time a wooden costume of a citizen he had remembered from Konohagakure, which he cast away a few moments later, as just a practice skin. The look of triumph on the genin's face however, was incredulous as he soon took out another scroll and began to study.
[3/3]
[Rank C Jutsu: Mokuton: Henge [Wood Release: Transformation] Jutsu Achieved]
This time he continued on with an entirely new set of hand seals, pushing his chakra into the ground through the soles of his feet, forcing wooden slats to grow from the ground in the shape of a small chest. To this small chest he would give a moment's thought. A few moments later he knelt down and grabbed up the pieces of his costumes, tossing them inside, as if to hide the things he had become. Shortly after this he pushed the final seal of the jutsu, letting a final slat come over the top of the chest, before allowing it to sink into the ground.
[1/4]
When the items sunk away he let his hands second the seals, creating a new structure. This one would be a small type of shed, just large enough to allow someone to find rest in it, with comfortable room to move. Stepping inside he let his fingers reach forward to touch the chakra infused interior, putting his flat palm to the wood he gave a slight push, extending one wall back out somewhat, then pulling his hands against the two opposing walls, creating a separation from one 'room into the next. This gave him a slight chuckle as he realized with this jutsu he could literally create any structure that was within his imagination, though as always it would be weak to fire if one was not careful. The smirk soon faded as the structure started to wobble and began to fall in on itself.
[2/4]
"Snake, Rat, Ox, Ram, Snake." He whispered to himself as he recast the jutsu, eyes remaining focused on the location of the last building.
Solid pillars began to rise out of the ground, more slats of wood then rising and converging on each other, forming what looked like a small dojo on the ground, something that would be used only between up to four practitioners to fight with each other, or to defend a duel of honor from intruders. When the items came fully together, they seemed more balanced, steady and strong on a foundation.
[3/4]
Now he looked inside the structure, stepping forward until he was within it. When he was within he would kneel down to the ground, eyes closed in solemn composition as he set to further study of the scrolls he carried. Though for the time, the finalization of the Four Pillars House was his last bloodline interest. Instead, now, he would begin to start his focus on Bukijutsu.

Senju Coheed Tokimoru:
"It is difficult for a fool's habits to change to selflessness. ... Because we do most things relying only on our own sagacity we become self-interested, turn our backs on reason, and things do not turn out well."
Content now with his Mokuton Jutsu practice, Coheed would in short order find himself entering the dojo and scrolling through the various techniques and the scrolls containing the basic education of the arts within. Finding one that immediately caught his attention he reached out with a collected hand and retrieved the Scroll of Shunkan no Hagane, then finding a calm place to study the contents he smiled. Perhaps this would be the best art to begin with. Minutes passed and the outside world seemed to disappear to him, he was gathering the information that would be needed now, in order to prevent him from having to return to the scroll several times throughout his own education. The results were intriguing to him, this school would require him to have more than a single weapon in the end, and of his weapons there would have to be size variables, but that made him enjoy it even more.
"A new challenger has appeared."
[1/1]
[Shunkan no Hagane: Stage 1: Rank E Basic Chop Learned]
Having realized that within he had already grasped the concept of the basic chop Senju Coheed would come to stand, eyes drawing forward as he drew his hands and began to make the hand seals for his Wooden Clone Jutsu, spawning a partner for himself to practice against. As the clone solidified they cast each other a furtive glance and nodded, both in turn drawing their bokken and taking stance. One would act on the defensive, the other would act on offense. For this round the true Coheed would act on offense, stepping forward to add more power behind his Basic Chop he would knock the defense of his clone away, before returning to starting stance.
[1/1]
[Shunkan no Hagane: Stage 1: Rank E: Forward Step Learned]
The next round consisted of Coheed taunting on his clone, so that he would move forward to attack, and with each movement to attack Coheed himself stepped back. The first two strikes he would move backwards one or two steps, but over the course of the match he would begin to move back multiple steps at once. Finally as he continued to step back his opponent made the mistake of coming in with his weapon hung to the side, during which point Coheed drew his own bokken down, stopping inches above the head of the clone, who merely bowed defeat for the round as both took a step from each other and prepared for the next round.
[1/1]
[Shunkan no Hagane: Stage 1: Rank E: Backward Step Learned]
Both combattnts would step forward, both delivering the same movement, drawing their main hand back before delivering a thrust towards the chest of the other. As they did their bokken made contact at the tsuka, then again at each others chests. Taking a step back both would then revert to the dance of the swords, Coheed stepping back from the clone who made the foolish mistake to advance with a chop, instead meeting a stab to the chest a second time. Their third round would begin with the clone's stance raised, while Coheed had kept his own low, taking a step in and delivering a stab before his opponent's chop could deliver.
"Close timing on that one." He said, noticing the bokken hovering over his head.
[1/1]
[Shunkan no Hagane: Stage 1: Rank E: Basic Stab Learned]
"Alright, one more round and then a break. The First Stage only has one more technique to it anyways." Coheed told himself, both of them nodding at his words of affirmation.
This time they both took offensive positions, but the clone let his blade drop low. Not thinking that the clone had taken the initiative in the first round of combat the genin stepped in and moved to deliver a basic stab, to which he would find his momentum changed. The clone had returned with a smirk as he brought the side of his bokken up to block the blade of Coheed, pushing it off to the side while making a basic kick with his right leg, forcing the man to trip and roll forward. A chuckle escaped Coheed's lips as he got to his feet and brushed the dirt from his hakama, turning back around to face himself in another round of the pitched combat. This time his clone responded with a basic chop, to which Coheed stepped forward and countered with the basic block, meeting the blades just above where a guard would be located. He smirked and exclaimed aloud as his left foot found itself buried between the legs of his sparring partner and he took the forward momentum to shove himself over, watching as his clone rolled into the dust and poofed out of existence in a cloud of purple smoke.
