A black speck in a sea of green that seemed to dance following the direction of the breeze that was pushing against the grass  forcing it to move as if it was a ocean current guided by the pull of the moon, the black speck was still in it's movements as anyone who wasn't close wouldn't be able to hear the slight calm breath's emanating from it's lips. On closer inspection the black speck was a young male no older than fifteen could be seen sitting in the middle of a field of grass next to a lake that seemed to stretch out forever and the majestic way of how the light reflected off the water gave it a simmering look made it even more of a spectacle to behold as the wind gently brushed around the area making the scene look like a beautiful moving picture.

Once the gentle breeze passed a misty fog would begin to roll in making the scenery a bit more eerie then it had been moments before, the boy would now open his eye's as he had been meditating in his spot up until this moment and found that the fog clouded his perception to the point he could barely see two meters out in front of him. He begun to move his right leg out of it's meditation position until his foot was placed directly upon the ground and used his left arm to gently push himself off the ground while using his right leg to push further up until he was standing, he could barely see in front of him but the light reflecting on the lake would still give off a light that seemed not even the fog could make go away.

Mokuzai Senju would be the name of the young boy who resided next to the fog ridden lake, he had came to the lake as he heard it was a famous spot for ninja to train in Kirigakure however unlike Konahagakure's training grounds a persistent fog seemed to linger around making it hard to see, although he did not like the fog he himself could not deny the fact that training in low visibility would aid in the training of any ninja. He decided that although the fog would be good to his training the rather thick vicious fog around him was too much and he would do a light jog following the light simmering off the water, once he got towards the edge of the lake he could see the rather having the haze of light misty fog over it and the surrounding tree's next to him covering the edge of the lake and he could also hear the close sound of a  duck waddling and quacking as it swimed across the water to whatever destination it was heading in.


He would look onto the surface of the water and take slow careful steps towards it as he shifted some of his chakra to his feet allowing him to walk on the water, with each step he took a ring of water would push away from him in a circle's that begun to overlap each other distorting the clear image of him that was reflected in the lake. Mokuzai took a deep breath of air and although the area was surrounded by fog it seemed the air still carried the scent of fresh pine wood that he guess imitated from the tree's surrounding the large lake, he would once again stand still but unlike before he would focus his chakra causing it to slowly gather around him like a thin visible layer of armor, this was a method of training the young Senju preferred that helped him further increase his ability of chakra control that was important in the use of using his wood style. The boy simply stood in place on the water while the water quietly shifted underneath his feet.

As Mokuzai stood in the middle of the Lake of Sorrow he would refine the chakra surrounding him further and further until the thin layer of his fluorescent blue chakra now thinned out protecting him in a skin-tight layer, the water underneath his feet now seemed to move around him in a circle as water starting to lift from the lake slightly above his feet around him. Suddenly the sound of something being crushed would pierce his ear's and it would break his focus as the water around him dropped back into the lake and his chakra has expanded before disappearing into thin-air, the young Senju would open his eye's and turn his head to look the way the sound he heard came from and through the cracks of the mist he could see a young boy looking his way.

Mokuzai studied the boy for a moment through the crack of the mist surrounding them, he could see the boy's hands were slightly curled as if he was holding a object in his hand. with one step back the boy throw right arm backwards before slinging it forward, it would seem he was right but his interest would be intrigued as the boy throw the stone while infusing it with wind nature that was evident from how it skipped on the water but suddenly seemed to pick up speed coming towards him.

Looking at the stone coming his way which was faster than the average skipped rock but still too slow to worry him he would see the stone eventually fall into the lake before looking back towards the boy near the shore, Mokuzai would then start to walk while picking up speed until he stood where the boy was standing but he had seemed to all but vanish into the mist.

The young Senju would now return to his training  while he was thinking if he was going crazy.
