``` subbing for training ground ```

Kana, still riding the wave of high energy tournament stress, was throwing herself into her training once more. Her newest goal? To further improve her taijutsu with chakra enhancement. Because everyone knows that zappy fists are better than normal fists. It just seemed like the natural progression of things. Currently, she had yet to manage keeping ahold of the added lightning chakra... It was quite frustrating. 

Which is why she was currently utilizing her usual training method of "Beating up training dummies until she felt better". Sure, it wasn't the most effective way of *Training*...But it certainly made her feel better about her lack of progress.

*Sana had done it, one day while he had been training in the Uzumaki compound, he had felt something click into place in his head, some small part of him that had aligned correctly enough to force the rest of him into a new level of Taijutsu mastery. He desperately wanted to train with Minori now, but alas it wasn't time for their increasingly regular Jutsu brainstorming session. He swore those sessions got more and more crazy every time, he wouldn't be surprised if anything at all happened in them this time.*

*Coated in an aura of static discharge, Sana sped to the edge of the clearing and came to a halt at the tree-line with an intense gust of wind following shortly after him. There was someone here! Oh he recognized them he believed... Maybe at the founding tournament last year? Lord that must have been in between one of his matches at the festival itself. It was crazy how fast time had flown in that year. Dismissing the aura of lightning chakra around his body, Sana moved at his 'normal' speed up nearer to the practicing genin and gave a loud greeting.*

"How's it going? Getting in some training?"

*Sana wore his usual outfit of his unzipped FP-issued flack jacket, and his dark blue pants and sandals. His long mane of red hair flowing down to his hips as he came to a stop nearby.*
Sachiko
Being completely focused on bullying Mr. Training Dummy into submission, the little genin was quite startled by him loudly announcing his presence. Suppressing a shriek of surprise, she quickly turned around to see who'd approached. She just sort of stared blankly at him for a moment, trying to put a name to the face... She should totally be able to remember someone with that much bright, red hair... Right? Apparently not, because she's got nothing. Blinking rapidly, her brain finally caught up to the rest of the world around her. 

"Oh... Uh, yeah I guess. Pretty unsuccessful training to be honest... I just-"

Kana cut herself off. She didn't need to whine and complain to this guy. First of all, he probably didn't care. Second, she couldn't just admit defeat to a stranger! She was going to figure out this lighting shit even if it killed her.

"Juuuuust... Getting in some tournament training, ya know?"
Chong
"Tournament training huh? I did pretty well in the tournament myself, i could give you a few pointers if you wanted. I feel like we've met before in the founding festival last year? I seem to remeber your face a bit but it's hard... It's been a busy year so i'm not sure if i may just be imagining things."

*Sana gave the training dummy a good look up and down, she was practicing taijutsu it seemed. Was she brushing up on a skill she rarely used or was she refining her specialty? He suppose it didn't matter to terribly muxh and he could help her either way, but it would be nice to meet a fellow taijutsu specialist like him. A lot of people knew a decent amount about taijutsu, but there wasn't an abundance of people who used nothing but taijutsu, or well, mainly used taijutsu with a bit of ninjutsu like he did. He supposed it would be dishonest to say he only did taijutsu when he covered himself in lightning to make him faster.*

"What's your skillset like? I could give you some pointers from my perspective."
Sachiko
If Kana was any good at remembering things then she would've said he did way better than "Pretty well" In the tournament. But alas, she was quite clueless as to who she was currently standing in front of and instead, gave him a rather skeptical look. Just because he *Said* He was good, doesn't mean he actually is. But then again... She recognized that she *Really* Needed some help. She'd reached a point in her training in general where she was unable to get by just by working on her own. It was so humiliating having to ask for help...

She scratched her head. What *Was* Her skillset? Personally, she thought she was good at a lot of things... But he likely meant things only regarding to sparring or things like that. She highly doubted he'd care about her passion for flower arranging. 

"Weeeeelll... I know a lotta ninjutsu and I have my kusarigama. But I'd say I rely on taijutsu mostly. I mean, not to brag or anything, but I'm pretty damn awesome at that. I've been *Trying* To do that thingy where you like, cover your hands and stuff with chakra? But I seem to have hit a wall when it comes to adding the lightning part..."

She frowned as she looked down at her hands, like she could will the technique into working just by glaring. It didn't work of course. And she sincerely hoped that Sana understood what "That chakra thingy" Was because she had no idea how to explain it.
Chong
"Oh! Chakra Enhancement! That's so cool! I'm a big fan of chakra enhancement too!"

*Sana lifted his arm lazily and coated it in a layer of lightning release chakra, something that came to him so easily now it was essentially effortless. Waving the hand around a few times to show off the effect, Sana's hand would then practically disappear in a blur of motion as he drove his hand into the training dummy they were standing around, his hand stopping more than a foot deep into the target. It cut the wooden target more like a sword than a chop, but it severely damaged it without Sana seeming to put very much effort into it at all.*

"Chakra enhancement is really fun. I even use it to enhance my speed and reaction time, which is pretty fun to be honest, although that's significantly more advanced than just putting some over your lower arms and whacking people with them. You can do some really cool stuff with just that as well."

*Sana kept on explaining as he gestured with his arm currently covered in lightning chakra, it seemed like he could talk about nintaijutsu and Taijutsu forever if he had the chance to.*

"The lightning part isn't actually as difficult as the regular chakra enhancement to be honest, at least to me. It takes a bit to perfect, but it's just getting the exact conversion you want and adapting on the fly a little bit as you fight."
Sachiko
The girl's eyes seemed to light up with excitement. How did she get so lucky as to find someone skilled in the *Exact* Skillset she was trying to learn? Maybe her good karma was finally starting to pay off. Watching him stab the poor block of wood just seemed to hype her up even more. She so wanted to be able to do that. Honestly, she was about two seconds away from literally bouncing up and down in anticipation. 

"Yes! That. How do I do that?! I've *Kinda* Figured out the basics, but I've just been trying to figure stuff out on my own as I go... Which like I said, hasn't been going so well..."

Deciding to try her own demonstration, she took a stance in front of another, less destroyed wooden target. Her hand glowed lightly with a thin layer of chakra as she landed a solid hit on the target, definitely leaving a mark, but it was nowhere near as devastating as his attack had been. Her taijutsu form was already quite good, but it was obvious she relied more on her strength rather than pure chakra enhancement like Sana did.

"See what I mean? You *Gotta* Show me how you do that!"
Chong
"Well i'm just glad i'm able to help at all, I had to sort of figure it out myself. Well with a little help from my peers, but nothing from anyone with actual experience with the technique at all. It was mostly just trial and error on my part until i got it right."

*Sana laughed as he saw Kana's ever growing excitement about the prospect of learning chakra enhancement. She looked like she was on the verge of taking off and flying away. He nodded appreciatively at her strike, she was about as physically strong as he was, give or take. Her form was also excellent, he had no complaints at all in that department either. Honestly she was better than he was during the tournament if that brief demonstration was reflective of her overall skill. The chakra enhancement added an extra oomph to her strike, but not nearly to the same level as lightning chakra enhancement would. Lightning was especially good at destroying things, which was a feature Sana particularly enjoyed about his affinity towards the element.*

"Well, what you need to do is work on the change from regular chakra to lightning chakra. The thing i didn't realize until later than i should have is that you don't have to constantly worry about feeding it chakra at the same rate. If you can manage to get the lightning over your whole hand, you can just feed it enough chakra to keep it going and focus the rest of your attention on changing the little bit you're feeding it to electricity. Ideally it should keep itself going like a steam engine, then you can use the same principal later once you get better on your whole body."

*Sana then moved the light electric current and stretched it over his whole body, activating overdrive and smiling at his would-be student as his body sparked with small electric discharges and sparks. He then chopped at the dummy again in a different spot, cleanly cutting the dummy down the middle in an even greater showing of chakra enhancement.*
