Every shinobi wants power because power makes other fear you...sometimes. Keigo was training his close combat skills wanting to improve his technique. The problem for keiog was he never had someone to show any special taijutsu moves, so he only relied on the Muay Thai that he learned from his father, but not any real taijutsu move to farther enhance his sklils. Keigo lately had been staying in the forest a lot for training so his only focus was getting stronger. Keigo was practicing his muay Thai on a tree, which is the only thing he had to practice on since he didn't have a person to train with him. The more he trained the more his mind would focus on perfecting his technique. Keigo decided to take a break from training to catch his breath. He sat down in front of the tree thinking what moves he could learn that would be possible with his current skills. Keigo tried to think of any move, but failed to think of any. The forest was very silent as Keigo sat under the tree, this was the first time he noticed how quiet it was in the area. Keigo looked around seeing nothing but green after green and a blue sky pass it all.

"Guess I should get back to training" Keigo stood back up to practice his kicks on the tree. He would start with a very slow kick with his hip also slowly turning and his left hand resting beside his hip to make sure the form was fine, then he would do the same kick again this time much faster. Keigo made sure he didn't waste any movements. His father etched that into his mind and body, which really helps him when he trains. Keigo continued to practice his kicks until he was satisfied with the results.

The sun had arisen and it was a warm day in Konoha and it citizens were going about their daily routines.  Shopkeepers attempted to call out to the potential customers, in a competition about who had the lower prices and better specials.  Children ran around in the streets playing tag, hide & seek, and other games they enjoyed playing to past the time.  Suutei awoke earlier that day for his daily exercise and was just about to finish up, ending with the usual three hundred handstand push-ups.  Pushing forcing himself to work hard, as each drop of sweat, rolling from his chin to the floor.  
Suutei squinted as the sweat got into his eyes and started to burn.  While his arms began to bulge as his muscles gained more definition but remained thin, his navy hair hanging straight down touching the floor after every rep.  Suutei wore his exercise attire, blue harem pants with a black sash around the waist, his Konohagakure headband tied around his upper right arm.  

”Two hundred ninety-seven...ugh...two hundred... ninety-eight...two hundred...ninety-nine...COME ON...THREE HUNDRED!”  Suutei fell onto his back, breathing heavily he tried to bring himself to his feet shaking his head rapidly side to side to release the sweat from his hair.  ”Ah, that was a good workout.”  Suutei stepped into his bathroom, staring at himself in the mirror his face glazed with sweat, his crystal blue coloured eyes gave off a look that could steal someones soul, his thinly arched blue eyebrows perfectly tailored, his short now messy hair needing to be washed.  Suutei stepped over into the shower stripping off his clothes before he turned on the hot water, scolding himself a little he quickly turned the cold water on.  The showerhead releasing the water warm water, that made Suutei's body glisten.  The water gave him a vibrant feel as he began to cleanse himself from the odour he received from his workout.

By the time Chopper was up and hungry as always, Suutei was on the roof snapping pictures of the citizens roaming the village, but only those who stood out.  "Suutei!!! Im getting hungry!!!  When are we going to eat?!?!"  Suutei ignored Tony but couldn't leave him hungry, he'd just get more bitchy so he decided to take out a granola bar and tossed it back to him.  Suutei took a look at his film, it seemed he was almost out but needed a few more pictures.  Walking through a well nurtured rooftop garden Suutei sat by a row of vegetables, looking through his bag for more film.  Without looking, he could overhear Tony crunching on the granola bar he'd given him.  Suutei rummaged through his backpack, only to find a change of clothes and other useless things at the moment.

Suutei decided that he would go out for training in the wilderness, maybe calm himself as well.  Today he felt uneasy for some reason, he decided to march out to the Small Forest to the south of Konoha.  "Hey Chopper!  Lets go do some training in the forest."  Suutei leaped to an alleyway below, cushioning his fall on a bag of igarbage.  The blue haired Genin with the blue nosed reindeer hobbled through the streets of Konoha, before approaching the southern gate.  Suutei could see a boy through light underbrush striking a tree with his legs, it seemed he was alone.  I wonder if he will need a sparring partner...  Suutei began walking in the direction of the boy upahead, with Chopper tripping falling flat on his face.  "OW!  Suutei wait up!"  Suutei  approached the boy, "Don't mean to tell you what to do but, if you snap your leg back faster when kicking you have a wider window to strike beforehand."  Suutei demonstrated by doing a jumping double kick to neighboring tree causing a great number of leaves to fall.

As Keigo was improving his kicks he thought about how his father always told him patience was key for a shinobi. He wasn't very patient as a person, but Keigo took his father's words to heart. While he continued his kicks Keigo heard a voice from behind him, "Don't mean to tell you what to do but, if you snap your leg back faster when kicking you have a wider window to strike beforehand." Keigo turned to see a boy with blue hair perform a double kick in the air on a nearby tree. Keigo was impressed by what he did and knew he was a well trained shinobi. It had been awhile since Keigo was impressed by another since he spent most of his time training alone lately. Keigo felt this was an opportunity to test his skills against someone hopefully this person would agree to spar with him since its been a long time that he had a sparring partner besides his father. Keigo quickly emulated the same move the person had just showed him on the tree that was in front of him. "Hmm...my kicks felt a bit sharper." After keigo landed back on the ground he approached the person asking them, "You seem pretty skilled with taijutsu as well would you mind sparring against me?" Keigo knew this was a chance to test his skill against another and see if his skill have dropped, because it had been awhile since he was last on a mission. "Also if you don't mind me asking what is your name?" Keigo didn't want to be rude and not know the name of the person he planned to have a match with if he accepted.  His father once told him that knowing the name of the person you were in combat with shows they are worthy of some respect in your own eyes.

Keigo was smiling inside trying to hold back the excitement he was feeling from showing outside. He looked at the person and felt he was meant to meet this person for a reason. He noticed the person wasn't as tall has him, but Keigo knew from experience that judging by looks could mean a lost in battle before the battle had even begun. Even though this would just be a sparring match Keigo hoped his opponent wouldn't hold back to much.

WC:402

Spoiler:

It turned out the two boys had similar plans, they both wanted to fight.  Suutei was never the type to run from a fight and certainly wouldn't run now.  "I'm Suutei, of the Kimura clan I am also a Genin."  Suutei was now able to analyze the boys features and clothing.  His hair was also blue a tad bit shaggy, but kept in decent shape.  The brown eyes were stunning they were intensely warming almost filled with a burning ember within.  The standout was the boys navy blue and yellow collared jacket with the Uchiha Symbol on the back of it.  Symbolizing his Uchiha lineage, in his entire life he never came across someone of the Uchiha clan.  Along with the jacket he wore a purple turtle neck underneath.  Noticing the boy had semi thin eyebrows almost as if they were touched by a specialist, but Suutei was nobody to judge him.  Suutei also saw the kids grey pants a slightly different shade than his slacks, and a pair of navy blue leather ninja sandals worn by almost every ninja. He also had a peculiar tattoo around his right eye and he wasn't sure why he would get a tattoo around his eye, again Suutei was nobody to judge.  Suutei thought of his clan as insignificant as they were, practically weaker than the almighty Uchiha clan.  Suutei had never fought a member of the Uchiha, well he had also never met someone either.  "So if its a fight you want, I will not hold back.  I gotta know whats your name Uchiha.

Suutei was a bit annoyed when the guy said his kicks were firmer and would reassure him, that his kicks were inferior compared to Suuteis.  Suutei ran straight ahead at the kid instead of waiting for him to reply, Suutei leaped preparing the same jumping double kick to the kids head.  If he managed to avoid it which he highly doubted he would use his signature technique to create an afterimage of himself, to appear behind the kid and strike a blow to his back with his fist.

The person introduced themselves as Suutei of the Kimura Clan and he was a genin. Keigo himself was a chuunin, but he never cared for rank as a sign to whether a person was stronger than another by a rank given to a ninja for the deeds they completed. Keigo thought this would be interesting if Suutei accepted his invitation to spar. He could tell he was getting analyzed by suutei maybe to get a grasp of what type of person Keigo was or it was Keigo just over thinking the situation."So if its a fight you want, I will not hold back.  I gotta know whats your name Uchiha." Keigo was sort of right that he was getting analyzed since he noticed he was an Uchiha by the symbol on his clothing. Things were starting to get interesting since his challenge was accepted, which caused Keigo to have a slight smirk on his face happy that he had someone to spar against. Before Keigo could introduce himself he saw that his opponent had already made his move to attack, this got Keigo even more excited knowing his opponent was just as excited as he was to fight. This caused Keigo to even have a bigger smirk on his face not wanting to show his opponent how excited he was Keigo made the smirk disappear and got serious about the situation. There was no time to relax just by looking at Suutei he could tell he was going to show Keigo just how fear some of an opponent he is in a battle. Keigo saw Suutei perform the same move he executed earlier when they met. Keigo watched as he saw the flawless execution of the move performed in front of him, this left Keigo amazed as he also saw the passion in Suutei's eyes while he decended from the air with his kicks ready to hit Keigo. Keigo knew he would be having a tough fight today, but he is not someone to be messed with ether.  

Keigo's eyes turned a crimson red as he watched his opponent come with powerful kicks. Both were wonderful kicks, but Keigo dodged both kicks by leaning his body backwards and using his toes from his right foot to propel him backwards away from the attack and then used his left foot to begin the cycle of hoping backwards away from Suutei. While he was watching his opponent as he hoped away he noticed that he vanished and felt something something was behind him. Keigo quickly turned to shield himself from from a blow using his left shoulder. There his opponent was behind him as he saw him as he peaked over his shoulder. Keigo let the blow to his shoukder help him build momentum again to move away.  Keigo stopped a few meters away from his opponent impressed, luckily Keigo was quick on his feet and also he had the power of his clan dojutsu "Sharingan". " Nice move and by the way my name is Keigo and what was that move you just used?" Keigo stood thinking what did he just witness.

Spoiler:

Chopper began to crawl in a tree above to stay out of their way, when Suutei got started it was hard for him to calm himself.  Chopper experienced this himself when he accidentally kicked him into a tree, after an ambush attack of gorrillas.  Suutei was a very savage fighter, if it came down to the wire he was the one you want to have your back.  Chopper was still learning the meaning of a fighter, seeing how his whole life he ran from his problems.  Chopper saw Suutei use his signature technique, Tempest Barrage his pride and joy.  Chopper watched Suutei reappear behind the other kid, who reacted quickly to Suuteis movement.  Suuteis punch connected with the kids shoulder, who then began to almost glide backwards on one foot.  Chopper amazed by the boys speed thought Suutei may be in trouble, then he looked at the boys eyes.  They were crimson red like blood, with a smaller pupil and two commas making them look diagonal.

Suutei surprised his attack didn't connect were it was suppose to, after hitting the kid he used the momentum to skip backwards a few meters.  Keigos eyes became a crimson red after he exclaimed Sharingan aloud.  Inside his anxiety was building up, the kids eyes, the trademark of the Uchiha clan was now right before him.  Keigo asked him what did he call the technique, even though he hadn't thought of one yet he now would be a good time.  "I call it Tempest Barrage.  I gotta say your Sharingan has got my blood boiling to see what you really can do with it."  Suutei took a deep breath already preparing his next technique, the clans special.  Hopefully, he could use it in succession against Keigo.

Keigo was impressed with his opponent and that move that hit him. Keigo wanted to know the name of that technique since he wanted to learn some taijutsu skills to add with his muay thai. His opponent told him the move was named "Tempest barrage", which was an interesting name indeed. Keigo felt he could execute that same move as if it was natural to him. He guessed it was because of the power of his Sharingan that naturally copied the technique as if it were second nature for him. Keigo smirked again thinking today was turning out well for him. Training and a sparring match just what he wanted. As Keigo stared at his opponent from a couple of meters away Keigo noticed a strange creature in a tree near Suutei. It seemed a bit strange different from any creature Keigo had ever seen before in the forest. He didn't pay it much mind playing it off as some giant squirrel or bird that was watching the two boys battle. Keigo placed his focus back to Suutei wondering what his next move would be since he seemed pretty quick on his feet. With total focus Keigo noticed something strange with his opponent after they took a deep breath. Keigo focused his Sharingan to an extent were he could see his opponents chakra and for some reason his chakra was running wild as if a jutsu was about to be casted. Keigo knew it had to be a jutsu with range since, no hand seals were used.

"With my eyes I can see that your clearly planning something" Keigo quickly made a tiger hand seal and took a deep breath. Keigo wondered if his opponent was ready for his attack because if he wasn't things could turn out bad. Keigo exhaled a stream of flame from his mouth that formed into a massive fireball heading straight for his opponent. "Fire Style: Great Fire Ball Jutsu" As Keigo shot out the giant fireball he watched the flames shined in a beautiful light as they waved within the massive fireball. So could his opponent take own such a powerful attack Keigo was about to find out within the coming seconds.

WC:370

Spoiler:

Suutei could see the giant fireball coming right towards him, he quickly release the chakra he held in his lungs.  Instantly a fireball expelled from Suutei's mouth similar in size to the Gōkakyū fireball used by the Uchiha.  Suutei knew this couldn't go on forever he knew he could beat the kid, Ninjutsu wasn't his strong suit.  Suutei shot out another fireball smaller compared to the two current ones, the fireball travelled directly above the Uchiha kids head.  The fireball then split off into eight smaller ones like a firework.  When the fireballs hit the ground they would explode all around him and give him first degree burns trapping him.  Suutei grabbed three shuriken and hurled them towards his target, hoping to hit him with at least one.  Suutei watched the fireballs detonate and the shuriken pass through the flames, the flames prevented him from seeing the results.

Chopper slipped out of the tree onto Suuteis head, he grabbed him and laid him off to the side.  "Chopper go back to the house, its gonna get a little to serious okay.  I don't want you in the way or getting hurt."  Suutei had a serious look on his face as he prepared the same technique again, and charged with his initial technique at the roaring flames.  The kid stood no chance to continue fighting from a range, if he was wise he would need to fight Suutei by overpowering him.  Suutei jumped towards the flames waiting for the boy to emerge.  If he did he would throw a punch then reappear to his right side and deliver a kick to his head with his left foot.

Keigo watched as the fireball he shot at suutei charge at him with fierce power behind it. Keigo noticed that suutei shot out another flame that seemed a bit unique must have been a jutsu related his clan. The two flames clashed that caused them to cause a blast with nothing but flame separating the two ninja from sight. Just when Keigo was planning his next move he noticed a fireball coming from the other side of the pile of flames heading for the sky. Keigo thought his opponent had predicted wrong, but saw the flames disperse into smaller ones falling straight down at Keigo. Just as keigo planned to move out of the range of the small fire balls he noticed shuriken heading to him from the flames. Keigo smiled thinking his opponent was quick to make his next move. Keigo used his speed to quickly get away from the flames and the shiriken both heading straight for him ultimately leading to the fireballs crashing on the ground and flames hitting nearby tress and the shuriken being lost in the flames of the small fire balls crashing into the ground. Kegio kept his eyes out for his opponent and not to his surprise there he was a few feet in front of Keigo. Keigo had a slight smirk on his face, heading straight for suutei. Suutei had through a punch,  but Keigo could easily see the direction of the punch thanks to his Sharingan and he dodged, while also throwing a punch, but noticed suutei was already sending a kick to the side of his face. Kegio smirked as the kick got closer to his face "Tempest Barrage", then suddenly Keigo appeared behind Suutei leaving behind an afterimage that suutei thought was him. Keigo threw a punch to Suutei's face, but stopped it at the last second while smiling.

"I think that's enough for today, this place will just get more destroyed if we keep sparring at this pace." Keigo was impressed with his opponent it had been awhile since Keigo had to push himself in a fight. "Thanks for the spar you really helped me out today Suutei." Keigo was glad he met someone like Suutei, this was just more motivation for him to get stronger as a shinobi.

WC:383

Spoiler:

It just went to show that when battling a Uchiha, the tides of battle can quickly turn against you.  Suuteis kick was abruptly stopped when the afterimage of Keigo disappeared, and Keigo appeared to the right of him coordinating a punch that would meet his face when Suutei touched down.   Suutei had already braced himself for the hit when in fact he could still use another afterimage.  To his surprise Keigo stopped his attack, Suutei noticed this when a trickle of sweat from his fists hit his cheek.    "I think that's enough for today, this place will just get more destroyed if we keep sparring at this pace."Suutei a bit in shock and was impressed with his opponent, he actually forced a Uchiha to push himself in a fight.  "Thanks for the spar you really helped me out today Suutei."  Suutei was glad he met someone like Keigo and honestly could see striking an immediate friendship with him.  Though the fact that with no training at all Keigo was able to use his signature technique, this was just more motivation for him to get stronger as a shinobi after facing the Uchiha.  "Well Isn't this something."  Suutei looked around watching the burning tree leaves, and soot falling to the ground.  "I guess you have a point Keigo, and to be honest I woild love to spar with you again.

Suutei smiled at the Uchiha boy with a newfound respect for him, and his abilities most of all the boys sharingan had an effect on Suutei that made him fight better.  It was a feeling he never experienced before that feeling was tension, most of his fights there was no tension just hatred.  This could be the start of something new, but only time would tell what these two boys would be in store for.  "Keigo if its not to weird for you...Uhmm would you maybe like to sleepover at my place tonight.  Just to get to know eachother better you know, and learn a few things about one another."  Suutei thought about his address and if Keigo accepted his offer he would give him the information needed.  That night Suutei and Keigo would talk about how they train, why they train, and everything they wish to receive out of life.

WC:

Today's spar really helped both shinobi become better than when they first met. Keigo caught his breath thinking this spar escalated to something completely different from what he expected, but this was good experience for always being ready for any situation no matter what expectations you had before the situation developed. The atmosphere had loosened up after Keigo suggested the spar should end. Suutei agreed with Keigo's suggestion,"I guess you have a point Keigo, and to be honest I would love to spar with you again." Keigo nodded to Suutei's remark agreeing to spar with him again. "Sure I look forward to next time." Keigo felt he met someone that would continue to be another influence in his life as he strived to become a better shinobi. Keigo stretched his arms to loosen the tension in his muscles, since the fight was over. As Keigo was stretching he heard Suutei suggest something to him. "Keigo if its not to weird for you...Uhmm would you maybe like to sleepover at my place tonight.  Just to get to know each other better you know, and learn a few things about one another." Keigo never slept over at someone else's home, plus he agreed with getting to know each other better when it comes to dreams, ideals and other stuff in general. "Sure that's fine with me, but I have to head home first to let my parents know."  Keigo knew he had made a new friend today, but something bothered Keigo after he agreed to sleepover Suutei's house.

"Something been bothering me this whole time that I've been around you, but do you have something to do with a weird creature that I saw during our sparring match." Keigo didn't plan on asking him about it, but he felt like he should have noticed another presence along with Suutei's. Keigo wondered if he missed something that he should have noticed.

WC:329

Spoiler:

Never feeling more energetic than he did this very moment, the heat of battle always made Suutei anxious.  But when it all came down to the wire, and the odds were against him Suutei could always pull through no matter what.  "Sure that's fine with me, but I have to head home first to let my parents know."  Suutei smiled filled with extreme delight that his newfound friend would sleepover.  The two would probably remain restless througout the night, talking about their goals and maybe their past.  Suutei was not the pushy type he was a bit bold though, but when is that ever a bad thing.  Adjusting his neck tie, Suutei noticed that his clothes were slightly singed and needed to be tended too.  When he got home to Chopper he woukd have him fix his uniform accordingly.   He began to wonder if Chopper got home safely, he has walked home alone before though he had a strange feeling something was wrong.

Chopper indeed was in trouble after be chased out of the forest by a pack of Warthogs, and out of panic crashed into a fruit stand due to him not being aware of his own surroundings.  Chopper ended up not returning home but indeed running from others, usually how he spends his afternoons for being so clumsy.
”Sir, Im sorry I didn’t mean to destroy your stand!  AH!  Please don’t hurt me!”
”Oh You’ll be sorry you brat!”
Chopper was still being chased by the fruit vendor who still was incredibly pissed that Chopper single handedly destroyed his fruit stand.  He could onlt imagine how angry Suutei would be when he found out, in the mean time he needed to return home.  He would take the shortcut through the outskirts and through the trees to their home to the south.

"Something been bothering me this whole time that I've been around you, but do you have something to do with a weird creature that I saw during our sparring match."  Suutei thought the Sharingan had mind reading powers, it was weird he would bring up Chopper right when he began thinking of him.  Suutei never thought the boy noticed the small blue nose reindeer, apparentl he did Suutei was impressed with his Analysis skillls.  You know what, its funny you ask but that was my pet…errrr…creature.  His name is Tony Chopper, but I just call him Chopper.  He is really cool you will love him, he actually lives with me now.”  Suutei knew he was pressed for time so he would wrap things up with him now, until he saw him later tonight.  ”Now that I think about it I need to make sure that Chopper got home safel, I’ll see you tonight okay.  Here is my address…”  Suutei grabbed a piece of paper and a pen from his bag, writing down his address making it legible enough to read.  Hopefully, Keigo would be able to come he really enjoyed being around the Blue hair fellow.  Suutei ran out of the forest and back through the village gates, after handing the sheet of paper with his address.

Chopper gasping for breath finally got away and reached his home, right on time too because Suutei just arrived.  "Jeez Chopper what happened to you?"  The blue hair boy and blue nose reindeer entered the home ending their extravagant day.  Chopper had a few bumps and bruises, but nothing a home remedy couldn't handle.

Keigo was very intrigued from what he head from Suutei. Keigo was given a piece of paper by Suutei to know where his home was located. There the two boys went there depart was just to meet again in a different location. Keigo smiled a little as he decided to walk back home to get ready just to leave right back out. He went home to let his parents know he was leaving in a minute to sleep at a friends house. Keigo as ate his mothers cooking, took a shower and prepared to head out. Today showed Keigo how much of growing he had to do. There were always people that have ambitions just like he does and Keigo knew his drive had to be stronger than anyone else to become the best. He thought of all the things he went through as a chuunin and how all those experiences tested him as a shinobi. He knew he was still young, but his desires to reach his goals were far greater than what people believe to be. Keigo patted his little brother head as he watched him leave. Just as he opened the door his father laid his hand on Keigo shoulder telling him to have a good time. Keigo smiled telling his dad thanks as he opened the door and closing it has he left.Keigo looked at the sky while the sun began to sleep, thinking time to head out.
