Goku: "Well, maybe you'll see something you like!"
He stated, wandering into the Yamakawa Market Place. He spotted a open shop, and ran over there right away. It sold fruit.
Goku: "Hi! Could I get; ten of those apples, eight of those bananas, five of those bunches of grapes... Oh yeah, what do you want Tepes?"
He glanced over at Tepes, arms full of fruit, he had already paid for his share of food
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sasuke: "Well, I do sense a potental amount of chakra hidden away.... nothing spectacular, but quite something. So, I don't see why not."

SANO: "Well, whatever. We'll try it and see."
RED: "Great, so then it's settled!"
MAEL: "...are we going to do this here?"
SANO: "No. We'll go to the base edge of the river from here."
MAEL: "Oh, I see."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tepes looks at Goku.
TEPES: "I don't eat fruit...."
He looks back at the clerk, who is now growing quite intimidated.
CLERK: "B-boy! Take him away! He's scaring the other customers!"
Tepes only smiles at the clerk with his usual grin.
TEPES: "Be glad that I've allowed them to remain as customers here. I could easily put you out of business, in the blink of an eye no less."
CLERK: "J-just....g-go away!"

Goku: "Oh, alright then."
He glances over at the clerk, with a confused expression. He shrugs, then glances at Tepes.
Goku: "Well, let's go, I guess."
He suggested in his usual cheery tone. And so, he led Tepes off, back towards Sano and Sasuke's place. They didn't get far before they heard Sasuke's voice...
Sasuke: "Oi! Goku, Tepes!"
He waved at them, motioning for them to come over. Along with him was Red, Sano, and Mael. They were at the base of the river. Goku waved, munching on an apple, as he wandered over to them.

Tepes casually phases over to the group, as though it was nothing.
RED: "Hey, Tepes... we're gonna teach this guy some magick. I want you to help us."
Tepes stares Mael in the eyes.
TEPES: "Heh heh... You dislike me. I killed your friends? Strange, I would remember such amusement. And I do not remember that."
RED: "Hey, Tepes. In a few thousand years, if you get the oppertunity to kill some V Factor members, and you see Mael, don't kill them, ok?"
TEPES: "Heh heh.... Yes, my Master."
SANO: "Well, shall we begin?"
Mael walks cautiously past Tepes.

Sasuke: "Well, I guess we'll have to start with Chakra Control, nothing is gonna happen if you can't control your energy flow. 'sides, practicing this should atleast awaken some of your dorment energy."
Goku arrived, and plopped himself down on the ground, watching. He munched on his fruit, as he watched.
Sasuke: "So, this is gonna take a while. Being as you've never had any experience with magick. First, I guess each of us will show you something. I'll go last."

RED: "Hm, I guess I'll go first, huh..."
Red steps up, and places his sword and shield on the ground.
RED: "Hm.. letsee. I guess I'll do Holy. Hm, that boulder there.... yeh. Alright, Mael. Pay attention."
Red places one of his hands in front of him, and makes quick gestures. Within seconds his body glows white.
RED: "This is Holy!"
The spell surrounds the boulder, and moments later reduces it to dust.

Goku: "Ooh, me next!"
Goku places the food beside him and hops to his feet, running over to them.
Goku: "Now, watch this."
The youth takes aim at a few boulders.
Goku: "Hn, this is.... Renzoku Hinotama!"
A small orb appears between his index and middle finger. Three others appear between his fingers. He throws them at the the boulders. Each making impact on a boulder, blowing them to smitherines.

MAEL: "Impressive.. you and Red must be pretty good to have Magick like that! You two would destroy the Rogues no problem!"
SANO: "Perhaps so. But it's not always the power of the Magick. The important thing is keeping the elements in balance. I'll show you my favorite attack, Luminaire. I don't require obstacles for this."
Sano crosses his arms across his chest, then raises both hands. A tiny glow appears in the form of a nearly miniscule sphere. It expands instantley, surrounding his entire body, then it expands once again, barely missing Red, Sasuke, Goku and Mael.
MAEL: "Wow! That looked even better than Red and Goku's Magick! No offence, guys..."
RED: "None taken. Sano's been at it awhile longer than me. He's used his in war more than I can imagine."
SANO: "Who's next... Sasuke or Tepes..."
TEPES: "Heh heh... I'll go next...."
Tepes walks over to Mael, and lifts his hands, pointing his index and middle fingers at him.
A force field surrounds Mael and begins to shrink in size. Soon Mael has no room to move at all.
RED: "TEPES! NOT THAT MOVE! LET HIM OUT!"
TEPES: "Fine, fine..."
He releases the Dark Force right before Mael is crushed.
RED: "Now show him some Magick, but don't use it on any of us!"
TEPES: "Why? Tch... humans are to weak... and yet I take orders from one. How pathetic."
Tepes raises his hand, and a pentagram forms on the back.
TEPES: "This is my favorite spell.....Hah hah hah hah... and I won't even use it's full power!"
Tepes' pentagram glows purple, and a void opens before the group, in the shape of a circle. A pentagram forms within the circle, and begins to spin. The rocks and boulders on the ground begin to quiver, and are suddenly cast into the void, and ripped to atoms. The atoms reassemble themselves into a massive ball of Black Energy, and cast out of the void, and hurled into the mountain side of Tetsuyama, creating a large crater in it.
TEPES: "Heh heh heh... perhaps I over did it a bit."
MAEL: ".......!"
RED: "........!!!"
SANO: ".....?"

Sasuke: ".....?"
He steps foreward.
Sasuke: "Alright, my turn. This'll demonstrate several different magick techniques. First off, Chakra Control."
He wanders over to a tree, and begins to walk up it. Sasuke walks upside down under a fairly large branch, wandering to the tip of it, hanging over the water.
Sasuke: "Then, there's the ability to create clones."
He hops down from the branch, onto the water. He preforms a sequence of handseals.
Sasuke: "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu. Energy is distrubuted evenly between the copies, making it impossible to tell which is the real one."
Four other Sasuke's stood at attention, two at his left, and two at his right.
Sasuke: "Then, there are summoning spells; like so."
Each of the Sasukes preform yet another series of handseals. They speak in unision.
Sasuke: "Suiton Suiryuudan no Jutsu."
Each of the Ninja summon a water dragon from the body of water. They all preform another set of Handseals.
Sasuke: "Finally, there is elemental attacks. Red demonstrated a holy based attack. Goku showed a Light based attack. Tepes displayed a poison based attack. This one is fire based: Katon, Karyuu Endan."
Sasuke and his copies cup a hand over their mouth, as if going to yell. Instead, fire dragons the size of the water dragons behind them, emit from their mouth. The dragons take flight, each entangled around the other. Together, they dissapate. As well as Sasuke's copies.
Sasuke: "And so... you start from the beginning: Unlocking your ability to use magick.

MAEL: "Alright..... but how?"
SANO: "You have to focus your Chi, basically."
RED: "Yeh, that's about it."
MAEL: "....chi?"
TEPES: "Chi... it's the life energy that motivates all living things to continue living. I'm immune to it. I can go where ever I choose, and no one can trace me."
MAEL: "Then how do you use magick?"
TEPES: "Magick and Black magick differ greatly. Magick is a gift, and it uses the life force to function. With a strong life force, you have strong Magick. Black Magick, like what I use, is the power of Mephisto himself. Black Magick uses energy FORCED from Mephisto. I have no allegiance with him, nor does he with me. But his life energy is intense enough to build powerful magicks. Black Magick is also non-elemental. It is nothing more than Black."
MAEL: "...I see... so only people with evil in their hearts can use Black Magick, right?"
TEPES: "Not entirely. It is a gift, like your Magick. The ability to use Black Magick does not interfere with the ability to use other Magick. If I had a life force, I could conjur Poison spells as well as Black Magick."
MAEL: "Hm... Well, do you know how to control your chi?"
TEPES: "No."
RED: "It's easy once you get th' hang of it. Just concentrate and visualize the energy inside of you as something that can be held in the palm of your hand, and released from your body."
SANO: "The Solar Plexus is a good Chakra to release from. It's likely the easiest."
MAEL: "Hm...."
Mael closes his eyes and focuses. Within moments, his body begins to give a dull glow, then it fades.
MAEL: "....I can't seem to grasp it....."

Sasuke: "Well, don't tell us. Try again, you almost had it. Concentrate and visualize. Clear your mind. Don't try to force it out, but rather guide it."
Sasuke's voice was it's usual neutral tone. He had his forehead protector pulled up, his Sharingan was active. He was watching Mael's internal progress, as well as his external. He was able to see the Chakra gates, highways, and holes. He had his hands stuffed into his pockets, he stood in his usual slouched posture.

TEPES: "He won't get it like this. He's not motivated. I'll help."
RED: "Huh?"
Tepes raises his hand, and once again the Pentagram forms on the back of it.
TEPES: "Black Awakening... My power is released to it's full potential... Mael, you will die now!"
Tepes Begins to use his Dark Matter spell again, this time with increased power.
TEPES: "Upon your death, I shall make you one of my ghouls! Now... Hah hah hah... Surrender yourself to my will!"
MAEL: "I....can't... fight it!"
He begins to slide towards the void, being pulled in by the intense vacuum.
MAEL: 'D-dammit! What do I do?!"'
TEPES: "Why not just give up? Hah hah hah... C'mon... amuse me!"
Mael reaches deep within himself, and releases his Chi, breaking through the restraining barriers within himself. His reasons to hold back are abolished, as he assumes his life is in danger. His body glows brightly now. The void closes, and Tepes lowers his hand with the same grin on his face.
TEPES: "Heh heh heh... Lightning, hm..."

Goku: "Yeah! Way to go Tepes."
Goku punched the air.
Sasuke smiled, and spoke up.
Sasuke: "There. You now have the ability to use magick. Now for basic Chakra Control, without this basic knowledge, you won't be able to preform any magick. Focus all your chakra into your feet. Then, start by trying to walk up that tree over there. You're new at this, so get a running start. Here, take this kunai, and make a mark each time you reach the highest you can go. Progress and advance from there."
Sasuke pointed over at a tree, and casually tossed him one of his kunai.

Post by Vegeta on May 18, 2005 22:03:03 GMT -5
Mael closes his eyes and begins to focus his Chi, clutching the kunai tightly in his hand.
MAEL: ".....I...think I have it."
SANO: "Alright, then give it a shot."
TEPES: "Heh, take your time. I have all eternity."
Mael runs towards the tree with reasonable speed. THUD![/b]
SANO: "....we-ell.... not bad for a first attempt..."
RED: "Next time, hit the tree with your foot, not your face... listen to what Sasuke told you...."
MAEL: "I'll get it!"
He runs again, and this time manages to run the tree.
He jabs the kunai in, and begins to slip. He barely manages to balance himself, and removes the kunai, climbing higher, and higher, until he manages to reach the top of the tree.
MAEL: "I did it!"
He tosses his arms up in victory!
THUD![/b]
Unfortunatley, it caused him to lose his balance.
MAEL: "....o....ow.... But atleast I did it!"
SANO: "Not too bad....Not bad at all for a beginner."
MAEL: "Well, what next?"

Sasuke: "Now that you've got some understanding of how to mold your chakra, the first step to proper control, is enhancement."
Sasuke's body is outlined by a thin sheet of blue chakra, hardly noticable. Then, Sasuke dissapeared.
Sasuke: "Like that. That wasn't teleportation mind you. It was just speed."
He stood behind Mael, hands still in his pockets, and still in his slouched position. It didn't seem that he moved at all. Though, the surprising thing was, Sasuke was acrossed the entire clearing, and stood behind Mael in that exact moment of time. Sasuke didn't need any speed enhancements, but if he used it, he would be completely untrackable, like what had just occured.
Sasuke: "Now you try. Focus the chakra into whatever limbs you wish to enhance, whether it's strength or speed."
