Fukurou stood by himself in a portion of the training grounds usually used for the control of water jutsus, but he thought the nearness of water may be a good addition to his training until he could learn to control his fire.
When he got scared, it came. When he became furrious, it came... In between those times - he was lucky to pull off a decent henge some times.
He looked out at the vaccant training grounds in the early morning twilight, and missed Kitsi and Ruu, but there was nothing for that right now. His eyes closed, and he tried to envision his objective and force the flames to come, causing his hands to shake, but couldn't feel that flame yet...

Oki approached quietly, watching Fukurou as she did so. She had expected to be training out here alone this early in the morning, and she was surprised to see Fukurou there. She hadn't known he was interested in water jutsus.
She was about to call out to him, to greet him, but she remembered how well that had gone the last time and bit her tongue. She wasn't sure she could face his anger again, knowing she had done nothing to him to earn it. Instead, she planted her feet and began forming hand seals. The water nearby obliged eagerly, burbling and waiting for her to direct it.

Fukurou's fingers flexed open and breathed deeply, trying again... Once more, his hands shook, and he looked like he was about to blow a seal - he was holding his breath and trying to force something, rather than trying to do anything to control his chakra. Still, nothing was happening for him...
He seemed completely oblivious, both to Oki's presence, and her jutsu's effects on the water beside him...

Oki didn't like the look of Fukurou. He needed to cool down, and she thought she knew how to do it. She directed the water at Fukurou, hoping to soak him and calm him down.

As the water hit Fukurou, he froze on the spot, and let out a little yelp of surprize, trying to shield himself from the liquid blast. Two things occured; the first bit of water drenched him from crown to crotch, and the rest instantly began to evaporate from the two flaming disks that errupted in front of his hands, sheilding him from the water, but it was too late...
"Pfffft, pfffft... Pffttt!" he sputtered and turned around, trying to figure out what had happened...

"You need to relax, Fukurou. Forcing things is just going to get you hurt. Calmly focus your chakra if you're trying to do a jutsu," Oki said clamly, her hands falling to her sides.

Despite it all, Fukurou smiled. "Pardon, Ms. Oki," he said politely, with a little bow.
"It seems that I don't know what I'm doing, nor how to do it. As I understand, and I understand very little, my responces are automatic, to fear, or to anger..." This made Fukurou stop and think.
"As well, on the topic of anger. Ms. Oki... I believe I very much owe you the sincerest of appologies..."

"Oh?" Oki said, very much surprised.

Fukurou cleared his throat. "Ms. Oki, I wish to clarify, my... impolite responce... was uncalled for, and inexcusable. It was in no way my intention to cause you worry, pain, or anxiety of any variety. My... Sensai... has a way of getting, under my skin in ways I had not previously known existed, and... I wish to express genuine remorse for my behaviour towards you, and accusations I may have made or insinuated about you. You are a great person, Ms. Oki, and I should have known better than to say what I did, or to act in the mannor I have. I appologise," he said, bowing very low...

Oki smiled and stepped up to Fukurou, waiting until he stood from his bow to hug him tightly and kiss his cheek.
"No harm done, Fukurou. Baoh... Baoh's very special, I admit that. And I am sorry he made you think that he was me. I'd honestly never do anything that would hurt you or upset you, not intentionally, and I'd work very hard to make sure I didn't do it unintentionally. Hopefully Baoh leaves me out of his teaching from now on."

Fukurou studied Oki's responce carefully, maybe the two men that had approached him, the redhead and the blonde hadn't told Oki what he had imparted on them, and he was thankful that they hadn't, he would have been responcible for her hurt as a direct result of his own immature and backhanded behavior.
"Baoh is... special," Fukurou affirmed, but there was a little bit of venom in his voice, despite the deep shade of red his cheeks were turning at Oki's kiss on his cheek. He felt very weird about being touched, and especially by Oki now...

"I see he hasn't been showing you how to control your chakra, though. Do you want some pointers? The way you were going at it, you were apt to break a blood vessel or something."

Fukurou smiled. "Some pointers from someone as respected as yourself would not go unappreciated," he said with a nod. "Though, I have questioned whether or not it is a matter of chakra control," Fukurou confided. "I use no hand seals when I am able to produce flame..."

"Then maybe you just have a different way of channeling it," Oki shrugged. "Unless you've got flint and steel up your sleeves, the fire's coming from somewhere and there's some kind of energy that's creating it. So you need to find a way to control that energy and focus it to create the flames at will.
"I always find it helps if you can center yourself mentally, find some inner center of clam to work from while being aware of your surroundings."

Fukurou stood, smiling at the ninja. He didn't say anything, he didn't appear to be searching for any area of inner peace, nor did he seem to be ignoring her, but what she was saying... "You sound like Ms. Otomeken," he said after a long tract of silence, and he smiled and cast his eyes away...
He nodded. "Channel the energy," he repeated, trying to think, to feel the flow of chakra, or whatever it was, inside of himself...
