Flashback Training (Open/Spar,etc.)

Jun was of the Uchiha clan, one of the few people who knew the meaning of this place and what it signified. Here was the "black forest", a large portion of Hi no Kuni's forest stretching about 200 acres. Charred black skeletons of trees stood here, where no forest life dwelt, human or beast. However, in the very middle of this, was the ancient home of the Uchiha Clan, before they had become part of Konoha, simply to part ways again much later.

Jun was shown this place when he was young, by his own Father, accompanying him and his older brother, Houkin. The boy, now eighteen years old at this time, found himself back here once more. He was a criminal in Hi no Kuni, pursued for killing his own fellow Uchiha, then fleeing Konoha with the remaining members and two other shinobi. However, this wouldn't keep Jun from visiting Hi no Kuni now and then, for as much as Jun resented Konoha, Hi no Kuni was his birthplace, and the origin of his clan.

The young man, with his long black hair tied up in a pony tail, wearing a black tunic and grey pants, belted on his waist with a white cloth, carrying his signature katana and wakizashi, Uzume and Yawata as they were called, wearing wooden geta sandals, a long cloak over this bearing the Uchiha Tengan, and the Sound Village Hitae-ate wrapped around his right upper arm, he looked like a piece out of antiquity, as Jun returned to his "home". He was in fact, visiting here, to meditate on recent issues, get some alone time, and do some personal training. He did not, however, expect anyone else to be here, especially not someone who knew the significance of this most special of places. As Jun continued walking, the youth sighed a deep sigh.

As Jiyu walked through the forest of Konohagakure he noticed that as he went further and further in a particular direction, the animals around him began to make less and less noise.  At first this could have just been a coincidence but then he realized that it wasn't just the sounds that were decreasing but as he stepped into a clearing he realized that there were just no animals around at the time.  He had traveled throughout the forest many times and had most of it memorized but for some reason he had never been in this part of the forest.  Well it was hard to call it a forest now because the area he entered was full of trees but they were devoid of life; crisp and black from being aflame in the past. 
 
Jiyu sensed the shinobi before he saw him and due to his expertise in the act of sensory, realized this ninja could utilize 4 elements meaning that he was no average man.  At this point in time Jiyu was 17 turning 18 and was a chuunin who only had control over 2 elements; fire and earth.  As Jiyu walked into this dead forest, he spotted the man who had his back to him and the first thing that he noticed was the Uchiha symbol on the back of the man's black tunic.  The man's hair rustled in the light breeze and Jiyu took a few steps into the area making sure he stepped on some sticks nearby to let the Uchiha know of his presence if he hadn't already known.  He wasn't sure who he was or what he was doing here but he seemed a little suspicious since the Uchiha had used to live in Konohagakure but now mainly resided in Otogakure. 
 
This man doesn't seem to be any trouble…He's not really harming anyone or anything so maybe I should just ignore him?  Jiyu thought as he stood there looking at the man.
 

"Hey! You're not here to cause any trouble right?" Jiyu asked with a questioning smile.

Jun was steadily walking through the area, heading towards the central tower, when all of a sudden, he heard some sticks on the ground being crunched up. The Uchiha whirled around quickly at this, turning quickly with one heel spin, and faced the "intruder", Jun drawing his katana and wakizashi in each hand, ready to fight. His eyes turned from seemingly pitch black to a shining red, decorated with three tomoe in each eye on a thin circle on this iris that circled the middle pupil. Jun slid one foot back, and had the other ahead, ready to sprint at a moment's notice.

He studied his opponent now, a man that was at his own age, with odd pale skin and silvery white hair, and greyish blue eyes. The other man wore no shirt, showing off his chest, and wore black pants. He wasn't wearing a headband, at least as Jun could tell, so there was no telling the guy was from Konoha or anywhere else. Still, that didn't mean Jun could let his guard down. He growled under his breath, eyebrows furrowing in anger. He had not wanted to be bothered here. Still....

Jun snickered just a bit, and he'd say in reply finally to this stranger, "Me, here to cause harm? I should be asking you that question. What are you doing here anyway?". Jun's tone of voice was certainly edgy. It was clear he was unhappy, and yet, why the snicker?

The wind blew harshly just then, making Jun's cloak flap violently in the wind, and his hair wave wildly for a second, then it was gone, just as soon as it had come. Overhead, the sky was darkening, black clouds began to roll in, slowly blocking out the large golden sun and the blue of the sky. Darkness was here. Within Jun's heart, was a growing disdain. He had only wanted to come here to train peacefully, but now he wouldn't be left alone. Whoever this was, this odd man with the pale skin and white hair, he would taste the steel of his blades, and know what fear was.

The Uchiha whirled around and pulled out a sword and wakizashi and looked ready for combat at any moment.  He seemed to be an elite warrior since he was so ready to fight to a moment's notice and the man began to talk with him.  He had thrown his question back at him and Jiyu realized that he looked even more suspicious since he wasn't wearing a shirt.  Jiyu smiled and looked back at him and was about to speak but noticed the dark look on the young Uchiha's face.  

This man means business…If we were to fight I'm not sure if I would win but it doesn’t look like I have much choice at this point.  He uses weapons so I'll need to be careful and not get too close to him.

Jiyu looked at the man and his smile dropped.  The Uchiha were extremely strong and he didn't want to fight him if he was a good guy.  But on the other hand he had always wanted to see some of their unique jutsu.

Okay! I've made up my mind! I'll fight him!

His smile appeared on his face once again and he begun to charge his chakra.  He performed a few hand seals and jumped backwards into the air unleashing his jutsu as he did so.  

Katon: Phoenix Flower Jutsu!

Several small fire balls shot out of Jiyu's mouth and scattered in various positions aiming at different spots so that at least one would hit.  As Jiyu was in the air he began to charge his chakra for another attack just in case he was going to be attacked on his way down.  He could never be too careful and Jiyu had enough of a chakra supply to spare.

Let's see what the mighty Uchiha can do… He thought with a smile.

Jutsu Used:

As Jun waited there, ready to sprint, with swords in hand, he saw the man weaving very familiar handseals, and also saw the color change in the man's chakra to a firey red color. 'Well, it looks like slicing will have to wait. He uses ninjutsu, so I should probably do the same. However, first of all...", Jun thought, looking up as the man leapt into the air and took a hand to his mouth. Jun's perceptive eyes and quick wits would start working as they should, and he would start a nimble dance, curving around and under and over fire balls. He'd also tuck his swords back away at this time, into their scabbards for now, deciding to use them later.

Now, Jun would notice, sliding back now that he'd missed being hit by his opponent's Hosenka no Jutsu,that the other was preparing another Jutsu. Jun crouched down, studying the other with much curiosity, deciding to play his favorite game in a battle. The other chakra nature that Jun could see within the white haired man was that of Earth, which Jun also possessed. Now, Jun thought for sure he'd have the upper hand in this fight. However, he wasn't going to be absolutely sure just yet. It was one thing that a lot of people made the mistake of doing, was getting cocky, and Jun didn't like being that way. He hoped his opponent would be surprising.

'Surprises are always good, I don't often get them. I wonder how strong he is, how quick he is, how talented he is. And, I wonder where is from, since there's no indication of that. Why though, does he not wear a shirt? Is the weather too hot?',Jun thought as he waited for his opponent's next attack. The way he was crouched would allow Jun to move quickly out of the way.

Sharingan turn- 2

314 words

The Uchiha had quickly put his weapons away as soon as Jiyu began to weave the hand signs required for his jutsu.  Jiyu was almost certain that this man already knew which attack he was going to use since the Uchiha were almost always familiar with fire based attacks.  As the fire balls erupted out of his mouth and scattered along the dead battlefield the Uchiha stepped form side to side and swerved in between each attack.  His eyes were gleaming red with their signature sharingan and Jiyu began to get excited.  He had never fought against the sharingan before so this was uncharted territory.

As Jiyu fell back down to the ground he finished his hand signs and slammed his hands to the ground as his body hit it.  He emitted his chakra through his hands into the ground in order to activate his doton technique.

Doton: Earth Style Wall

The ground in front of his hands shot up in a wall of solid earth and rock which extended up around 9 feet tall and 5 feet wide.  As soon as the wall was created Jiyu began to charge more chakra and performed additional hand signs.  He jumped back a few feet in preparation for the Uchiha to attack and then unleashed his jutsu.  Flames spit from his mouth forming the head of a dragon and began to soar towards its destination.

Katon: Great Dragon Fire Jutsu!

Expecting this man to head around the wall some way either from the left, right, above or through, he targeted the ground in front of his wall so that the explosion would hopefully injure him.  It was possible this wouldn't work and Jiyu was fine with that since he had enough chakra in his reserves to fight this man all day.  He was excited to fight someone of such a revered bloodline but he had to make sure he had enough energy to retreat if need be.

Jutsu Used:

Jun was able to get away from his enemy's Katon: Hosenka no Jutsu quite easily, and now, as he had suspected, his opponent would utilize the other chakra nature, as the brownish color of earth would take over the man's body. The hand sighs were familiar, as Jun also knew this jutsu, and before you know it, there was a tall earthern wall between Jun and the other fighter, blocking Jun's view of what his opponent was doing. It was likely his opponent was preparing a jutsu that he did not want Jun to see, and that was understood. Anyone that knew of the Uchiha's abilities, knew that the Sharingan allowed the user to copy jutsu of their own chakra nature. His opponent was probably also aware of the Uchiha Clan's prowess with fire, so it was very likely that this jutsu was of fire chakra type. Jun laughed within. He decided what he would do next, launching himself straight at the wall.

From there, the Uchiha would dash up the stone wall, and would be perched ontop of this, looking down at his opponent, watching him prepare to launch a fire jutsu. In quick response to this, Jun wove his own set of hand signs, quickly (at 65 DEX when using Ninjutsu), forming the tiger, hare, boar, and dog kata, and then BOOM! His own wall of earth would errupt from the black ground and appear to shield the Uchiha, which would block the fire jutsu, if need be. Behind this now, Jun would quickly make the seal for the Kage Bunshin no Jutsu [Shadow Clone Jutsu]. A Clone of Jun would appear behind his opponent's immediate location, and stab for his opponent's small of the back witht he fast and short bladed wakizashi, and bring his katana around from the side to slash at the waist. The real Jun would jump off of his opponent's rock wall, and form the kata for his next jutsu.

Prepared: Shunshin no Jutsu [Body Flicker]

The Uchiha ran up the earth wall and performed a few hand signs of his own at a high speed.  As Jiyu's fire attack headed towards the enemy the Uchiha had brought up his own earth wall which raised right in front of the fire attack.  On impact the earth wall crumbled and the fire dissipated nullifying both jutsus.  At the same time Jiyu felt a slight prescence of chakra behind him and turned around to see a clone of the Uchiha dashing at him with his blade.  Knowing that Jiyu would not be able to move quick enough to dodge the attack he quickly performed the snake hand seal(at 60 dex) and activated his Doton: Earth Spear.  His skin turned a dark brown becoming almost impossible to cut and in theory should be able to block against the clone's assault.  Releasing chakra from his left palm, Jiyu began to use chakra manipulation to spiral his chakra every which way in order to from the spiraling chakra sphere known as the rasengan.  After the blade hit his earth spear armor he spun his body around and thrust the rasengan into the clone in order to destroy it. The Uchiha was still standing on top of the earth wall and was a great threat so Jiyu kept and eye on him to ensure he didn't get the upper hand on him again.  Jiyu felt naked in front of the man's sharingan but Jiyu was shirtless anyways and being naked was nothing new to him.  The man's eyes amazed him and he wished to know more about this strong opponent.  He knew he was an Uchiha but that didn't do anything for him since Jiyu didn't personally know any Uchihas.

"My name is Jiyu Tsuno, I am from the leaf village.  What is your name?"
