``` subbing for training ground ``` 

Kana waiting patiently for her friend to arrive to meet her at the training field. Ok, so she wasn't 'patient' at all. She was bouncing up and down with excitement as she waiting rather *Im*Patiently for Murano to arrive. She'd wanted to catch up with her bestie since their promotions had just passed, wondering if he was fitting in well with his own branch. She also had a thing or two that she reluctantly needed help with... Of course, she'd never admit out loud that she valued his nerdy input on things. But she knew that if anyone could help her reach a breakthrough in her little jutsu experimenting, it'd be him.

Murano would show up a few moments later, waving to Kana upon his approach. She'd probably immediately notice that he was already wearing his pruple tabard, the moniker for any MP member. She wasn't the only one excited to catch up, it felt like so much had happened since they last spoke. He was curious as to how she liked being in the FP and who else they knew was with her. 

"Hey Kana! How's it going?" He said with a grin.
Sachiko
Kana jumped up as she heard her friend approach, immediately throwing herself at him in a tackle-like hug. 

"You passed! How do you like being purple? Oh man, how much paperwork have you had to do already? Have you arrested any badass criminals yet? You gotta tell me all the exciting stuff! The Frontier Patrol hasn't been terribly interesting yet. Lots of reading up on stupid frontier stuff. And the dude in charge of our orientation was such a bore... But I'm *Soooo* Pumped to take on some real missions soon!"

Thankfully for him, she would relinquish him from her grip fairly quickly, jumping up and down with excitement as she spoke rapidly.
Nelson
Murano was caught by surprise by the hug, but returned it all the same. He wasn't surprised by the barrage of questions, however. That was just like Kana.

"Give me a chance to think for a second, geez." He said with a chuckle. 

"MP's fine so far, I haven't done any missions or patrol yet. I'm mostly reading up on the law and stuff like that. There's some pretty nice people in the MP, Ishin's sorta helping me learn the ropes. The Majordomo is kinda... Odd, but they seem alright." None of it was especially exciting, his time in the MP was pretty tame so far.
Sachiko
"Well quite slacking. Get out there and arrest some evil doers!"

She snickered to herself as she pictured Murano trying to aggressively confront a criminal. Sure, she totally believed in his ability to fight. But it was an amusing mental image all the same with his generally soft spoken nature.

"Oh! You learn any cool, big kid chunin techniques yet? I got something I could use some help with I think... Well, not really *Help*. More like "Supervision". Just in case it backfires horribly. It probably won't but I mean, better safe than sorry, right?And I trust you to not let me die... You wouldn't let me die, right?"

Kana sent him a slightly suspicious glance, worried that all of the sneak attacks and lunches she'd mooched off him would suddenly catch up to her.
Nelson
"Yea, I'll get right to that." Hell, he didn't even see himself as the type to confront evil-doers. 

At the mention of chunin-level techniques, somethign did come to mind. He took out a small scroll from his jacket pocket. It seemed fairly old, the paper yellowed and frayed at the edges. "Actually... There was something. When I became a Chunin, my dad gave me this box. It was filled with all these scrolls with weird Genjutsu techniques. He said my mom made all of them herself, or something."

The thought of letting Kana come to harm had never crossed his mind and he was almost hurt that she thought that way. "Of course not! I'll help you with your technique, I've actually been studying up recently on medical stuff. If you get hurt, that'll help."
Sachiko
She was mostly kidding about him letting her die. Mostly. But at the mention of wanting to learn a genjutsu technique, she gave him a sly look. 

"Well my friend. I just so happen to have somewhat recently studied up on the art of genjutsu myself. I'm sure I'll be able to explain this technique to you. What is it?"

She of course only knew the basics and could perform a grand total of one D rank genjutsu herself... But it was Kana. And if Murano picked up on anything in their many years of being friends, it would be that she was vastly exaggerating her accomplishments.
Nelson
"You, teach me Genjutsu? Yea, I dunno about that one..." He said with a smirk. Neverttheless, he'd unravel the scroll to give her a look. It wasn't really clear what the opponent would see, but a gigantic snake was front and center on the parchment. 

"I want to try it, but Im afraid it might be kind of dangerous, y'know?"
Sachiko
Kana scoffed, ignoring his condescending smirk. She would be an idiot to be scared of snakes and have Murano as a best friend. She could totally handle it. She read over the scroll, and while she didn't totally understand what it was supposed to *Do*, it was just a genjutsu, right? Surely it couldn't be that much different from any other genjutsu. 

"Just go ahead and give it a shot, not like you're gonna kill me with it, right? The best way to learn is by doing. And besides, Aikuru's been testing out his genjutsu on me for awhile. I'm sure this can't be any worse than any of those..."
Nelson
"I'll make sure to end it before it gets really bad. Here we go." Murano took a few steps back and started to flip through various hand seals. After a few moments, he'd finish the jutsu with a clap of his hands. 

At first, there seemed to be no effect. They'd just both be standing there, Murano's hands still held together. However, she'd see *It* In the distance. A snake the size of Nora's largest buidling rose upwards towards the sky. It looked down at the pair and bared it's fangs, suddenly plunging downwards towards them. She wouldn't have time to escape as the snake crashed down on top of the area, swallowing everything in the vicinity. After a few moments of complete darkness, she'd find herself in it's expansive gullet. Skeletons and decomposing corpses littered the snake's stomach as far as the eye could see. Some of the less decomposed stil lbarely clung to life. Among them were Kana's family, Murano, and countless other of her comrades. They reached out to her, pleading for an end to their torment. The stomach acid in the snake's stomach slowly started to rise and with it came a burning sensation as it began to eat away at her feet. 

Just as this pain started, however, she'd be jolted back to reality as Murano ended the Genjutsu. He approached her hesitantly. "Are you okay, Kana?"
Sachiko
Kana knew the genjutsu was coming, but that didn't make it any less terrifying. Thankfully she wouldn't have experience the horrors of, you know... Seeing the people she loved and cared for dead and decomposing for long... As he released the jutsu, Kana felt her legs give out from under her, falling to her knees. She took a few shaking breaths, trying to collect herself enough to at least attempt to seem like she wasn't completely falling apart right now. She knew it was all fake of course... But that didn't make it any less traumatizing to see.

"I... Y-yeah. Yeah, I'm all good. One hell of a jutsu you got there ..."
Nelson
He offered her a hand up as he spoke. "Y-yea. Makes me wonder why my mom made a technique like that..." 

"You usre you're ok, though?" He knew she was strong, but this was a stronger technique than he'd ever used before.
Sachiko
Kana accepted his help, only a little visibly shaken. She did her best to put on her usual confident smirk, hoping he wouldn't feel guilty about giving her nightmares latter. If it was anyone else, she wouldn't hesitate to give them a stern talking to... With fists. But she knew Murano would let it get to him and then he'd *Never* Want to practice with her again. She wasn't about to let that happen. She knew he wouldn't totally believe her, but she just needed to pretend it never happened and she'd worry about the horrible visions she'd undoubtedly have later...

"Yeah! I'm great. Super great... Anywaaaaaaay... I think this means I get to test out *My* Jutsu on you, right? I mean, it's only fair..."

There was a hint of her usual joking tone coming back, she wouldn't let a stupid genjutsu completely take away her vaguely threatening humor after all.
Nelson
"H-huh? Yea, yea I guess so. Just don't kille me, alright? Or I'll haunt you later..." He too wanted to get past the genjutsu, hoping to joke around a little and change the mood. He took a few steps back and gave her a nod. 

"Alright, ready when you are."
Sachiko
"I'm mostly kidding. I'm not actually gonna hit you with anything since I like you and would rather you not become paste. I more need your smart nerd brain to help me out and keep me from electrocuting myself."

Sure, she might come off as a little cocky, like she thought super highly of whatever jutsu it was she was about to try. But in reality, she very much did not want to risk seriously injuring her friend. He was still a fragile boi in her mind, even if he'd come a long way in his training. She took another few steps away from him, just in case, as she brought her lightning chakra enhancement out, idly thinking that she likely hadn't shown him any of that yet. As she let the layer of blue, crackling energy coat her arms, she focused on how she wanted to expand and shape the chakra instead of keeping it close to her skin. It was... Difficult. Like she was trying to do the exact opposite of what she'd first trained to do when using chakra enhancement. And as she pumped a *Liiiiittle* More chakra into it, the glowing aura around her hands just beginning to take a vaguely animal looking shape... The technique would promptly backfire and quite literally seem to blow up in her face, sending her careening backwards, roughly making contact with the ground. She groaned, half in pain and half in frustration, from where she was sprawled out on the ground. 

"That... That wasn't what I was trying to do."
Nelson
"Y-yea, I'd like to avoid beoming paste." He watched as she performed the technique, taking special note in the chakra that enveloped her arms. When it eventualyl blew up, he'd rush over to her, offering a hand up. 

"Are you okay?! That looked pretty bad! That technique though, it's something else. If you can correct the chakra displacement, it's going to be amazing."
Sachiko
"Chakra displacement... I dunno what that means. But when I figure out how to make the lightning keep shape while moving out of my body, it'll be awesome!"

She winced as she accepted the offered hand, letting him pull her to her feet. Looking down at her lower arms and hands, she could see the red burn marks beginning to form. Literally holding lightning was understandably dangerous after all. But she wasn't about to let that stop her, she was sure her friend would help her bandage herself up later, it wouldn't be the first time she required his assistance. With renewed determination spurred on by a lingering, mild tingly sensation throughout her limbs, she stepped away from him once again... Just in case. 

She tried the Raiju's Maw jutsu once more, this time being much more meticulous in making sure she wasn't pumping too much chakra into the technique. As she focused, the jutsu would slowly begin to take form once more, forming a large wolf's head shape around either hand. Careful not to let the jutsu get away from her in her excitement, she moved to stand in front of one of the nearby trees surrounding the training field. And she would promptly unleash a devastating punch to the poor tree trunk, easily splintering through the wood. 

"You see that?! That was awesome!!!!"

Turning to him with a look of complete and utter excitement, she would sway on her feet a little as she let go of the jutsu, making a mental note that the chakra drain was quite impressive... But a little lightheadedness wasn't nearly enough to diminish the joy on her face. Oh, and some mild burns. But she'd be fine.
Nelson
"Oh jeez!" He exclaimed as he watched Kana quite literally explode a tree. When did she become this much of a powerhouse? If they got into a serious fight, she'd destory him within seconds. However, his excitement would quickly turn to worry as he saw the burns on her arm once again. Rushing over to her, he'd withdraw some salves and bandages from a pack on his hip. 

"That techniques dangerous if it does this sort of thing to you. You need to be careful using it." He quickly went to work wrapping up the wounds, applying the salve to help lessen the burns.
