1 Humble Beginnings [Training/Private/NK/Nova/Chigetsu] Sun Feb 18, 2018 11:20 pm
Aura Yukimenoko
D-rank
Whether it was luck or fate, it was not known. There was no reason she should have been saved from the claws of her isolation, nor the unfortunate fact she never had any formal training, but she was, by the hands of a mysterious woman she knew as Ryome. From what she was told, she was part of a clan known as the Aisu, who had the power to convert their chakra with the element of Ice, by combining both Water and Wind chakra. She didn't quite understand why only their bloodline could do as such, as there were other Ninja in the world that had access to Water and Wind, but was at least happy it made her special in some way. It also helped her realize that her mother must be from that clan; there was no way scum like her father could have been something so great. Due to this, ever since she gained access to the Academy, Aura practiced using her genetic powers once she had managed to pull off both Water and Wind, at a dramatically increased pace compared to the younglings in her class. It was clear that Aura would be out of the Academy faster than any student in their history, but only simply due to the fact she was much older, and her body was more developed, allowing for such. If she had been younger, there was no doubt that it would have taken much longer. She planned on making sure no one in the school mentioned her at all in future classes after her graduation, to avoid unneeded attention. Suffice to say, it was still obvious she was somewhat of a prodigy; and in only a few weeks, her physical conditioning was much better, alongside the fact she could use Chakra period.
Today, she would be training herself in the little yard beside one of Kirigakure's only cafes, through means of meditation. It was a sort of image training she had thought of trying out, simply pitting herself against a double, but within the mind. Her imagination was deep and thoughtful, so it was a perfect passtime for her once she had managed to enhance the experience with her innate chakra. Within this astral projection of her two selves, they were playing around with the Supernatural Walking Practice they had learned recently. She had liked the idea of it since obtaining, but had figured she could apply its concept with her own twist, using Ice Release. They were putting their hands against each other's clothes, trying to develop condensation upon their palms, but ultimately failed to make such a subtle notion without drenching themselves. It was more of a wet wrestling match at this point, so, in frustration, Aura snapped out of her trance-like state, crossing her arms and staring at the ground like a pouting child. It was really hard controlling Ice Chakra, compared to what makes them, for sure. But she did feel its power, and so did the environment, whenever she had tried to harness it. The area around her was much colder than the rest of it, and the grass beneath her had been frosted over. It was just a matter of controlling it, and she knew this. With a small sigh, however, she'd give up for now, leaning back against the ground and staring up at the night sky, with their twinkling stars and miniscule amount of clouds being the only sources of interest. At least, it would be a source of interest, if she could see it. All those eyes saw was darkness. Thankfully, this was no longer figuratively.
Since she really wasn't that far off from the cafe building, anyone on the balcony or staring out the window would be able to see her. She had become a regular of it at this point, but never at the right times to meet anyone she could talk to normally. They just let her rent out that little spot for training since she also bought their herbal green tea every time she stopped by. But maybe this trip would be different for her...?
