Chapter VI: Ninjutsu. [PT] I3ypD2t

“Up before the crack of dawn,” that’s what her mother had said when Karma had awaken before the sun even began to rise. A confused look had been placed upon her face, eyes staring at her mother as if she had grown two heads whilst the woman prepared her school lunch. It was clear that Kali’s words didn’t make any sort of sense to her eldest biological child. Karma watched as the woman put down the butter knife, chuckling softly as she ruffled her child’s hair. “It means you woke up before dawn, silly!” Her mother exclaimed, removing her hand from the child’s head as she resumed the task of lunch making. “Oh,” said Karma as she cocked her head to the side, watching her mother closely as she swung her legs back and forth. It was indeed early in the morning, though that fact really didn’t matter to the eight-year-old Karma and very pregnant Kali. The two had been up for about an hour now, the two having cooked and eaten breakfast within that time frame before the woman known as the Mizukage decided to prepare her daughter lunch.

Today would be Karma’s first day in the academy, and she was looking forward to it. The sound of making friends was appealing to the eight-year-old, though she was sad that she would be spending less time with the twins and Keita, and when the baby arrived, less time with her. She liked to be the attentive older sister, but she knew that Keita would watch the twins for her and that the twins would watch over the new addition within the household. She had already picked out a name for the baby depending upon it’s gender; Trinity would be the name if the baby was a girl, and Kaiden if the baby was a boy. The child was eighty percent sure that Trinity would end up being the chosen name since her mother had a feeling that the child would end up being a girl. It didn’t really matter to Karma though, so long as she could shower the baby with an unnecessary amount of love.

Her attention would snap back to Kali, the woman tossing the butter knife into the sink and placing a lunch bag before Karma, smile upon her face. The woman may be twenty-six, but she sure didn’t look the part. Neither her mother or her father looked like a couple in their mid twenties due to their youthful appearance. She heard that foreigners who came to meet her mother didn’t believe that somebody so young was the Mizukage, though the immediately apologized upon the woman stating that she was twenty-six. She hoped that when she got older, that she looked like her mother, though her mother was good to ensure her daughter that she would be beautiful regardless.

Karma hopped out of her seat, landing upon the floor softly as she pulled the lunch bag with her. It was time for Karma’s first day of school.

The academy had been a bore to Karma, the place far from engaging and even farther from being fun. Sure, there were plenty of children who attended the establishment, a whole lot of children may she add, yet she had been far too shy to talk to any of them. For one reason or another, the child found herself feeling self-conscious, wondering if her teacher’s would expect more from her due to her status as the Mizukage’s daughter. Again, she hadn’t a clue why she had that thought, having not gone into the establishment with that thought in mind, but it had certainly plagued her mind during lessons and recess. Her classmates probably thought her to be shy or unapproachable, the former which she somewhat was whilst the latter couldn’t be further from the truth. Either way, the child had completely blown it, and to make herself feel better, had retreated to the private training grounds that lied underneath the estate. She had homework to conduct and the ever so happy four-year-old twins known as Ichirou and Serenity respectfully need not interrupt her.

With a juice box and several books in hand, she descended down into the large room that had been built beneath the house. To say that the room was big was an understatement, the area being the same width and length as the house. If one were to add benches, the place could serve as an arena, a place where fights were held and competitions judged, though she knew her mother would do no such thing. The woman liked the room how it was set up, which was actually simply dirt with a lone tree hanging out in the furthest corner of the room. She would had preferred lush green grass, but she had been told that the family would tear up the grass in no time and that even if they didn’t that it would require an unnecessary amount of water to maintain, water that could be used for more important things. To put it simply, grass was out of the question, and though it made Karma somewhat sad, she knew that no amount of arguing would change that. What her mother said was not to be taken lightly nor questioned unless it was something of great significance, though her stepsister hadn’t gotten that memo yet.

Yet that was of no concern at the moment for there were more pressing matters that needed her attention and that just so happened to be the homework that her teachers had given her. So upon plopping herself upon the ground underneath the tree and setting her books in front of her, she began to tackle the homework. Though she went to a school for future shinobi, the place had done well to give her a lot of math, science, history, and language arts homework. It must have been their way of saying that there was more to being a shinobi than knowing how to perform complex techniques and throw weapons with deadly precision. Karma had other work that needed to be done, like reading the first chapter of the shinobi handbook which would be her introduction into chakra, but she believed that that should be saved for last. Her attention was on the general knowledge books as she read the chapters necessary to complete the homework, whilst absentmindedly writing down the answers to the questions. To say it was easy for Karma was an understatement, though that was only because she was a very fast learner. Teaching her stuff was very easy since she could comprehend and remember what she was told without difficulty.

After two hours of reading and writing, Karma was done with her general knowledge studies. She closed the books, stacking them neatly on top of one another with the title of the top book covered by the sheets of paper used to write down the answers to the homework. Only one book hadn’t been stacked up, and that was the book that pertained to Ninjutsu, an art that all within the academy would learn along with the basics of Taijutsu and Bukijutsu. Now the Ninjutsu she heard that they would be learning over the next four years were basic techniques that every shinobi should know, those techniques being the clone jutsu, substitution, and henge. Techniques that she believed that she could learn right now, since the thought of waiting to learn something that could be taught in a week sounded… boring.

She cracked upon the book as she sipped on her juice, brown eyes reading over the black words thoroughly for she had every intentions of doing the techniques right. With eyes closed and mind cleared, the child mustered up some chakra, performing the hand seals for the clone technique. Her eyes would snap open, glancing from side to side in hopes of seeing a couple of herself only to be disappointed with nothing. Karma frowned, arms dropping down to hang idly at her side as she glanced over her shoulder. Perhaps she had done that wrong. No, she had done that wrong, though what it could be alluded the child. She frowned more, knowing that she should had waited until her mother returned home before attempting to learn these academy techniques. She could wait still, but she had already started and refused to stop.

Once again her hands were up, forming the required hand seal, eyes remaining open as she watched out for her clone. To be frank, it was something that had taken a while to fully grasp, it taking many tries to finally produce a clone that was an illusion of her. It looked cool, but she couldn’t observe it for long, having lost concentration whilst she was examining her clone. Yet the clone was called forth once again, and she sustained it for a good minute before it disappeared. A smile spread across her face, delighted that she had accomplished one technique. She was now ready to learn another one, and learn another one she would do. Karma plopped herself back on the ground, taking the book into her hands as she read the instructions for the next basic technique.
