Thank you everyone for reviewing!

The body flicker technique was extremely hard. This was only my second day of training the technique, and I was extremely exhausted. To be able to use the body flicker technique, I needed to be able to maintain and control the amount of my chakra in my body. So first of all, Shisui taught me how to control the amount of chakra. He put a leaf in my hand, and said, "Apply an amount of chakra into your hand, enough for the leaf to be cut into half, but not too much for it to be torn into pieces, or too little for only a small cut. I want a perfect half. To be able to do this, you need a perfect amount of chakra, by estimating how much of it is needed, this way, when you use the body flicker technique, you will be able to estimate the amount of chakra needed for moving to the other short distanced place, and the amount of chakra depends on the distance between the two places and the elevation between the you and the destination."

Even after two days, I was still trying to find the perfect amount of chakra to slice the leaf into half. It was always either too much or too little. But no worries, I could actually catch on to the pattern a little. The reason for me applying too much chakra was because I was too focused to the leaf, but not to the chakra all around my body, and because of this, my chakra became overflowed in the hand. The reason for the chakra being too little was because I didn't put too much chakra, too focused of the chakras around my body. It was easier said than done. It might seem easy, but it was extremely hard to control it in a perfect amount of chakra.

I closed my eyes once more, finding my chakra. I could finally feel them moving in a pattern all around my body, the energy of perfect amount throughout the whole body, steadily moving. I focused my mind on the chakra in my body, and started to focus on my hand. I could feel my chakra slowly moving to my hand, and in an instant, I let the chakra in my hand out to the leaf. I opened my eyes slowly, to see the leaf sliced into perfect halves. I grinned. Ha, finally got it! But before I decided to do victory dance, I decided to do it once more, just to be sure. I closed my eyes, doing the same process in a faster motion. YES! I got it! Perfect halves again! I looked up to see Shisui-sensei looking at me, pride evident in his eyes, and I could have sworn I heard him muttered, "Prodigies these days…." He disappeared from his spot in an instant, and reappeared behind me, making me jumped. He ruffled my hair, saying, "Now to the interesting part of the training." The evil glint in his eyes told me that it was not the interesting part, but more of the interestingly exhausting part of training.

He threw a kunai from his pouch to the ground, about 7 meters away from me. He said, "Try body flicking to the kunai." I looked from where I was to the kunai, and estimated the amount of chakra. I needed to put a lot of chakra to flick there. I put 20% of my chakra to my body, and body flicked. I, however, failed miserably, only moving 2 meters. I tried again, applying 70% of my chakra, arriving along the line of the kunai. Yes, along the line, not beside the kunai. That time, I focused my chakra around my body, and concentrated. I closed out everything, only seeing the kunai up ahead. I closed my eyes, and the next second I knew, I was beside the kunai. The smile I wore could split my whole face. I realized that using the body flicker technique takes up a lot of chakra, especially of the people who were not used to it. Due to chakra exhaustion, I plopped down onto the ground and laid there. Shisui-sensei appeared, grinning at me, "You got it, and you just have to practice a lot more to be able to excel at it. I expect you to teach that jutsu to others like how I taught to you."

Shisui-sensei went home after that, while I remained rested on the training floor for a while. 5 more days until Neji's father's death. I had to perfect this technique before that. I stood up shakily, and walked home.

"I'm home!" I shouted as I took off my shoes and arranged them. Shikamaru immediately ran to me and gave me a bone crushing hug. As soon as he let go, he saw my bruises from my training, and immediately ran to his room, got some bandages and clumsily wrapped my wounds, saying in a motherly tone, "You shouldn't overwork yourself, or I will make sure you stay in your bed for the rest of the day!" I smiled. That was just too cute. After 3 hours, 5 p.m., my body was well rested, and it was itching to practice and train. I decided that I need to try to perfect my chakra control, by tree walking. I walked out to my family training ground, and gathered my chakra to my foot, and as soon as I ran up the tree, my foot deepened into the trunk, making me lose balance, therefore causing me fell head first. That left my small footprint on the trunk. Too much chakra applied. I tried again, like the body flicker technique, I closed my eyes, and concentrated on the chakra in my body, moving them slowly to my feet and I made sure that it was stable. After that, I ran up the tree with my incredible speed. I opened my eyes, to see myself on top of the branch. Oh yeah… I could climb a tree without my hands when I was 3 years old; take that, Sakura, Naruto and Sasuke!

After a while of practicing, mum called me to eat dinner. The four of us ate dinner in peaceful silence, until dad decided to break it. "Tomorrow, I will teach you two how to use your weapons properly, okay?" Shoot. I didn't realize I didn't know how to use the weapons yet. I mentally slapped my head, how could I forget about that? I had my shuriken holster, yet I did not know how to throw them. Meh, who cares? Dad would teach me tomorrow anyway.

I turned to Shikamaru and I could see him grumbling about less nap time for him or along those lines, but as his twin, I could see that he was really excited about the training, although he didn't show it.

One step closer to accomplishing my plan.
