Meditations

predator speak
disclamer no jutsu
Hope you all enjoy
Kwie Kwie handed Naruto and Hinata each one wrist computer. They pulled back the sleves of there shirts and put the computer on there forearms. There was a metallic sound much like the unsheathing of a sharp sword and they both felt something pierce into there arm. Hinata whimpered a bit and Naruto growled. Kwie Kwie went to stand over by the door remembering her first time with a wrist computer. Each computer is only ever used by one person ever, they take a sample of the owners DNA and adjust so that they will only work when in contact with that person as well as connect to the persons personal electromagnetic field and adjust to monitor the persons biological norms through there nevus-system. While its very helpful it stings like a bitch. After about a minute they settled down.
Kwie Kwie looked to her two students. She smiled slightly and motioned for them to come sit by her. "Now you two said you would teach me a bit on those techniques you used. We'll take a moment to rest and you two can explain a bit to me about how you use it"
Hinata and Naruto nodded, Hinata waked over and took a seat by Kwie Kwie, Naruto walked up the wall a bit and sat there. Hinata was the one to speak "Basically chakra is derived from two parts like we said before, its your physical and spiritual energy. They have to mix to be usable. It flows through your body much like your blood dose delivering energy to keep various parts of your body alive, when you flood a part of the body with excess chakra it becomes much stronger and more resilient, kind of like if you give a plant extra food it will grow taller and faster. The down side is each body only has so much chakra at a time, if you use to much on jutsu or other things there may not be enough left to keep your body alive. So people have to work long and hard to get used to exactly how much they have to spare." she paused for a moment
"The first part of being able to use chakra for anything is to get a feel for it. We often do this by way of meditation. Its easier for people who were born to chakra using parents than non but it can be done either way. The basic meditation we are taught is to close our eyes and enter a calm state, then visualize a flame, cloud, or storm in our solar-plexus and focus on it until we feel a sensation for some people its a tingle, for others its a warmth, and some people feel a chill. Its different for everyone."
Naruto chimed in "I had it hard learning how to control mine. Most people start out with just a small amount basically enough to keep them going under normal every day life. Because of the demon sealed in me and a few other reasons I have always had an excess of chakra, it also led me to be very hyperactive. Also made it really hard to meditate, if Hinata hadn't helped me out during the academy would never have graduated." He nodded wisely. Hinata giggled and Kwie Kwie smiled
Kwie Kwie took a moment to think about what she just heard, It seems simple enough, though the idea of running out of life force is just a bit on the scary side and not how I want to die. Makes sense though, I wonder how long before Naruto figures out they are more than friends. The look on his face should be priceless when he figures it out. "So the meditation is just the first step to get in tune with it, much like before you do heavy exercise you warm up to make sure everything is working" Hinata nodded. "So the next logical step would be to practice moving it from where it is to where I want it to be?"
Hinata smiled, "yes the next exercise we were taught is to move that feeling to our extremity one at a time, though never let the flow pass through your heart, it wont mater much early on but unless you know what you are doing moving a large amount of chakra through it could cause it to stop or beat uncontrollably" Naruto nodded, "That was the most painful self inflicted injury I have ever suffered, lucky I have a strong heart" He smiled widely. Hinata sighed "Like I was saying, we are taught to move it from point to point until it comes naturally to us and then we are taught to move it two two places at once usually both hands or both feat, from there we then have to learn how to mold it."
Kwie Kwie nodded, "Naruto, just to be sure this is stated, if you ever don't listen to my instructions and live through it I will beat the shit out of you, especially if its during practice. But on a more related note, so its all the basics of getting a feel for a part of your body that you don't normally use, like adjusting to a false limb or working in new armor"
Hinata nodded, Kwie Kwie continued, "I have a good grasp of what you mean so the only thing left for me on that point is to try it, as for you two we will get you started on the basic training to correct the weaknesses you have. Hinata on that wall" she pointed to the far wall oposite the door "you will find wrist and ankle weights of differing weight, for now use the lightest ones, later today we will get you a custom set that you will wear when not sleeping or bathing, for now work though your family katas until either you get tired or I say its time to go."
she sighed, "Naruto, your weakness is much harder to fix, self preservation is not easy to teach, however I think you will come to have it over time as you should realize you can't do much when your a corpse. "
"As for control, the only way to do that is practice practice and more practice, as well as meditation. So what you are going to do is create as many of those clones as you think you can handle and have them meditate out of the way, while you go through hand to hand katas slowly and precisely,"
she looked to Hinata "I am counting on you to correct him if he makes a mistake, as I am not familiar with either of your fighting styles." She stood up and stretched "Ok now its time to get to work,"
she walked to the center of the ring and got in a meditative position, Hinata got on the smallest set of weights she could find and Naruto covered the walls and ceiling with clones.
An hour later there was a beeping sound coming from Kwie Kwie's wrist. "Our times up here, lets go to the armory to get your weights Hinata and then I will show you two how to use your wrist computers tutorial function. Its easy to use after just a bit, very nice icon based system. After I show you two that you will have the rest of the day off, try to not get into trouble."
At the armory they got Hinata a set of five pound weights, Kwie Kwie told Hinata "When you get used to those we will add on a five pound vest, and from there we will slowly upgrade. You are going to have to eat more than usual to make sure you have the nutrients available to build the new muscle. Now you two are free to do whatever you wish, two things to remember are the galley and communal kehrite are always open, and treat anyone you meet with respect, sadly not everyone will be able to speak to you as some don't accept an implant and refuse to speak any language but yautja, for those remember to show basic respect and try to not give them a reason to challenge you." she gave a short and stern look to Naruto "To activate the totorial mode on your wrist comps, press the icon that looks like a question mark" With that she gave them a short smile and wave and waked out the door.
Naruto and Hinata decided to go back to there room for a while to figure out there wrist computers and rest a bit. When they got to there room Hinata went into the bathroom to take a bath and relax a bit, and Naruto plopped down onto the bed, He pressed the question mark icon and the screen hummed and projected a miniature hologram that looked like himself.
It said in a computerized voice, "Welcome to the tutorial program, in the next few minutes I will show you how to use your wist computer in all its basic functions without causing harm to yourself or others. First and foremost the computer can be set to accept both voice commands and standardized icon and written input. You are presently connected to the clan ship network. Here you can access the sat-com to acquire a map of the ship as well as any documented planets on file. While on this network you can place a communication audio visual or both, as well as text to any individual you know the name of."
Naruto nodded, and said "Neet," The hologram paused nodded and continued, "Indeed, as you may have realized this program is fully interactive. I can respond to any question you have that is within the limits of what I can access and you are allowed to know, interrupt at any time if you do not understand or have a question. The next function on the list is to address that this unit is not currently equipped with a medi-comp or field medical kit. It will be an icon in the shape of an injection needle. To use a standard medi-comp press the icon and wait for the gauntlet to dispense a rod, pull the rod apart and put the needles it exposes directly into your abdomen. There will be a strong burning sensation that will let you know it is fixing as many injuries as it can."
"When you acquire your bio mask your this computer will be responsible for switching vision modes, controlling electronic weapons, displaying information on your environment and personal health as well as communicating with other hunters on planet or in orbit. While on ship it can be used to access any audio, video or text documents on record that you are authorized to. To look up a subject simply input the name of the file or general field and select it through the touch screen or voice command."
"the last item on this tutorial is your self-destruct feature. To activate this either press the explosion icon or state activate self-destruct sequence. You will then have thirty secconds to cancel self-destruct sequence, to cancel you must state or input your four digit cancellation code. Please select code now as we are in a private area." Naruto thought for a moment. And punched in his birth date. "code accepted and recorded. You can also press the explosion icon and input your code to activate the self-destruct bomb on a custom timer and detached from the gauntlet. Thank you for taking the Yautja wrist computer tutorial please have a nice day and feel free to activate me again should you have any questions." The image flickered out. Naruto was left alone with his thoughts. Meanwhile in the bathroom, Hinata set her wrist computer on the side of the bathtub and activated the tutorial, she got the same instructions and put in 4093 as her code, and sighed at the pun. As the tutorial was ending she spoke up, "Can this be set to always record whats going on around me?" the miniature her responded "Auto record has been activated, would you like to code protect all recorded information?" "yes though don't start the recording for another ten minutes, please." The hologram nodded and flickered out.
As she walked out of the bathroom she found Naruto, twelve of him siting on the walls, "Hey Naruto, lets go get some early dinner, I'm a bit hungry and we can try out the sat-com." He smiled at her "sure thing" he looked at his clones "boys after ten minutes pop yourselves got it" they nodded. "so this computer thing is kind of neat, wonder if it has any interesting movies on it." Hinata giggled "I'm sure they have some hunts that some yautja went on, those should be right up your ally. Now lets go get a snack, twenty extra pounds is gona wear on me," Naruto gave her a big fox grin, "I can always carry you if you get tiered" Hinata blushed tomato red, it wouldn't be the first time but I was always injured before. Hes always so warm. She smiled and pulled up the sat-com map of the ship and put a marker on the galley. They set off at a leisurely pace to have an early dinner.
Authors note.
Hope that was a good chapter, I may be slow on updates for a while since my life is being thrown into absolute chaos. I shall try and update as often as I can, but no guarantees, I will also be working on the companion story of the team 7 before the predators hit. Its Ripples of a Malestrom. Forgive the bad spelling I was up late and don't have the motivation to fixing the title at this point, its starting slow but should be interesting and hopefully will go on long enough to fully companion the happenings of those left behind from the predator attack that started our heroes on there journey through space. As always any input is appreciated
