"Lord Hiashi! Father!, I am ready/wish to try/test out the jutsu now", both Resbeat and Hanabi declared at the same time.
"What? Shouldn't you wait until after I am finished with my practice to have your turn? Have you never heard of ladies first?" Hanabi shouted at Resbeat trying to get her chance first.
"Now, now, even since you both believe you have the hand signs memorized why don't you both try to do it at the same time. It is not like there is any harm in performing the jutsu at the same time", Lord Hiashi replied to defuse the conflict. "Now whenever you are ready go ahead."
The two walked away from each other just a bit and the stood facing Lord Hiashi as they began do their individual hand signs, (Boar, Dog, Bird, Monkey, Ram) they then rose their hands to their mouths and bit their thumbs on their right arms and slammed their palms onto the ground while shouting, "Summoning Jutsu!"
As the palms of Hanabi and Resbeat hit the ground two large puff of smoke burst up from the ground the dispersed after a few seconds to Lord Hiashi's surprise, both of the genins were gone.
"What!? Hanabi, Resbeat? What's going on here?" Lord Hiashi panicked as he activated his Byakugan looking around the area for signs of their Chakra.
A large gust of wind swirled onto the ground around him as a huge bird shadow casted over him, "Head of the Hyuga Clan fear not the lost of your kin and that other child for they have been called forth by the leader of your summoning contract. We are rather intrigued by the potentials of both these children and will sent them back in a few hours or so. Go back and remain calm until they return", a boom voice who cared not to identify itself informed Lord Hyuga before leaving as quickly as it appeared.
Meanwhile on top of an island floating in the air
Two puff of smoke appeared just outside a forest city of large trees from a reverse summoining done by a large Owlkin. As the smoke cleared the two genin appeared while looking around at the area.
"What just happened? Where are we?" Hanabi asked in awe of the unknown area.
"This place looks cool", Resbeat exclaimed as he activated his Mechasher eyes while glancing around. "It has a lot of unknown information for my eyes, but there are tons of weird or rare materials here. I wonder if the inhabitants will allow me to check them out more closely."
"Hmmm? Children? I had my doubts about them actually being children when looking down, but they really are just children. In any case Lord Fukurōnokiso ordered that I summon them and then bring them to his dwellings, so let's get them to move along", the owlkin spoke to itself.
"Children you or in the home of us Owlkins the contracted summoning animals of the Hyuga clans summoning jutsu. I am to take you to greet our leader, so I ask that you step onto my feet and hold on tightly unless you would like for me to grasp you in my talons", the Owlkin explained and then advised Hanabi and Resbeat as it spread its wings open to show its feet.
Resbeat quickly jumped on the owlkin's foot and tightly locked his arms around it with his arms only reaching about half way around the large creature's foot. Hanabi still confused as to what was happening slowly walked towards the creature while demanding a more proper explanation to what had just occurred.
"Child, you are wasting my time and annoying me so don't blame me for what I do next", the Owlkin began flapping its wings and rose up into the air while snatching Hanabi off her feet with its own before soaring off towards the large forest.
"Hanabi are you alright?" Resbeat asked as he lowered a rope down to Hanabi who was being held by the Owlkin's talons.
She gripped he rope and quickly tied it to her arm as Resbeat pried her out of its talons then pulled her up on top of the Owlkin's foot alongside himself.
"Hahaha! You are an interesting kid indeed no one has ever tried to pry loose prey from my talons in my life time. I believe I need to instruct you on some mannerisms right now", the Owlkin laughed at Resbeats strangeness then declared before shooting upwards into the air then twisting as it climbed higher.
"Resbeat you idiot I know it was to save me, but look what you made it do", Hanabi shouted at him while trying to her best not to be flung off its foot.
"Don't worry about that if we tie ourselves around its foot then we should be ok, and who knows this could be a incredible ride" Resbeat shouted as he threw the rope to Hanabi who then quickly wrapped it around herself before throwing it back to Resbeat from the other side of the foot. After tying the two sides of the roped together properly Resbeat then released highly condensed Chakra from his arms which he then whipped towards the Owlkin's head hooking on to its chest securely before he jumped off and swung himself onto the back of the creature.
"Oh! Ho! You wish to challenge me directly you disrespectful child? Then let's see if you can endure the pressure of my flight", the creature said in response to Resbeat climbing onto its back before it stopped its ascent and the shot down towards the ground as Resbeat gripped onto its back using the ropes of Chakra hooked onto its feathers on its chest.
Seeing the young boy still gripping onto its chest securely the Owlkin flew pass the land of the floating island and under it giving Hanabi and Resbeat a view of something truly spectacular. The underside of the island had four large crystals which were blue and thousands of smaller crystals of red and green color all of which had streams of Chakra running from each of the large crystals to the smaller ones and then another of the large ones. At the distance they were at the entirety of the island's underside could be seen which appeared to run on for about 10miles or more between each of the four crystals which were positioned at the corners of the island.
Quickly shooting pass the length of the island the Owlkin then shot back to the upper side of the island and entered the forest swaying pass trees just slightly as a means to scare Resbeat who was on its back. The young genin simply lowered himself onto on knee and gripped his Chakra rope tighter.
"HAHAHA! This is extremely exciting but it is kind of a pain that my Mechasher is being overloaded with information, so I guess it won't be analyzing anything further", Resbeat exclaimed as he deactivated his Mechasher eyes so that he would not pass out due to being overwhelmed by the rapid change in information he was perceiving.
As the Owlkin continued to soar through the forest another much larger Owlkin shot upwards in front of it causing it flap breaking its flight path and stopping its movement forward as it glanced up above itself.
"Fukurōnohaaku! I believed I instructed you to bring them directly to home why are you playing around inside the city instead of following my orders", the larger Owlkin asked while intimidating the smaller Owlkin who held Resbeat and Hanabi.
"Father!? Why did you come out here? Also I wasn't playing around I was punishing this insolent boy who not only took something from my talons but also dared to climb atop my back", Fukurōnohaaku answered with a hint of fear in her voice explaining the situation.
"Sigh! You foolish little Owl-ling that boy has so many things which requires our research and you choose to punish him for challenging you. The way I see it you may have been flying through the skies for half a day before even boring him not to mention how he appears to be grasping on to your very skin under your feathers and digging deeper into it with each passing moment", Lord Fukurōnokiso stated as he grasped onto Resbeat with his talons and held the youth by his waist as he flew toward his home. "Follow me back home and don't take anymore detours."
Fukurōnohaaku now free of Resbeat from her back simply followed her father as they all made their way to the second largest tree in the area. As he was about to touch down Lord Fukurōnokiso threw Resbeat onto the ground then landed and walked deeper into the hollowed out tree, after which Fukurōnohaaku entered and landed directly beside Resbeat who quickly jumped onto her foot and untied Hanabi.
"Children move forward and properly greet my father as you do so", Fukurōnohaaku stated as she walked towards her father and stood at his side.
Both Hanabi and Resbeat stepped forward and declared, "Greeting/Yo! Lord Fukurōnokiso/Owl king."
"Resbeat you idiot, I keep telling you to have some manners", Hanabi scolded him after slapping him in the back of his head.
"Haha! A child who isn't completely honest with herself and one who is too honest with himself bickering is always entertaining to me", Lord Fukurōnokiso chuckled as he watched to two genin.
"Excuse me asking but how are we here and why exactly?" Hanabi questioned the Owlkins politely.
"Oh? Fukurōnohaaku failed to inform you of this information beforehand? Well firstly, I had my daughter summon you just before you would first perform your summoning jutsu that is how you are now presently here not to worry though because I have already sent a messenger to the current Head of your clan. As to the reason why I called you here, it is because I wish to have you partake in a few trials of my Owlkin…" Lord Fukurōnokiso explained before being interrupted by his daughter, "Father you can't mean to have them possibly attain sage-hood. You must remember why we choose to segregated ourselves from the humans as much as possible even more so when dealing with this arrogant boy who has such an alarming situation inside himself…"
"Hush yourself my child the errors of the past does not equate to commending the future. This boy's circumstance is much more stable than that of those creatures which existed in history. Also it is my decision after conversing with the council to have them earn the status of the Twin Peaks Sages…" as Lord Fukurōnokiso was speaking he got cut off again by Fukurōnohaaku, "Hahaha! You expect these two to be able to acquire such a rank while from what I have seen so far the girl at least appears to be always at his throat."
"Fukurōnohaaku should you interrupt me again you will be tasked with flying through the trials yourself for an entire month", the older Owlkin shouted causing her to shrink away to the shadows of the area and simply listen as he spoke. "Anyways before I was rudely interrupted multiple times, I was saying that you will be taking these trials which isn't up to you to choice whether you do or don't" as Fukurōnokiso said this he quickly slashed his wing across while shooting two of small feathers into the bellies of the two genins which quickly sunk into them.
"Wha? What was that just now? What did you just do to us?" Hanabi and Resbeat completely shocked at what had just happened asked.
"This is the first of the Trials I have just shot you full of Senjutsu Chakra in a few minutes you will both start to display symptoms of the Chakra and being to transform while feeling extreme pain. Your task is to contain this Chakra while stripping off the excess and molding it into your own. Do not panic for the amount of Chakra I shot into you will easily burn itself out without killing you while you are back at your land. You must complete this task within three attempts or you will die. I will now have you return and I shall call you back in a week whether you have been able to take this Chakra as your own or not.
