Oki blushed lightly. "Thank you. I know how much you respect her, so that's very high praise. I just hope I can live up to it."
Oki took up a stance beside him, her feet spread to shoulder-width apart.
"Breathe deeply. Feel the breath enter your lungs and feel the way your chest expands and contracts with it. Feel the way the rest of your body responds."

Fukurou copied Oki's stance, and did as she instructed. He closed his eyes and concentrated on nothing but Oki's voice, and his own chakra, his own breath, and his own chi...

"I'm not sure how you'll feel it," Oki continued. "But I know I experience a warmth in the pit of my stomach. However you experience it, you'll know it when you feel it. Concentrate on it, try to draw it up and out slowly and carefully."

"It is warm, like a ball of golen light..." Fukurou said softly, not wanting to banish the feeling before he came to know it. He began to feel it spread out through his body as if it was blood through his veins being warmed, and it spread through each and every capilary...

"Good," Oki encouraged, beginning to form her hand seals. "Draw it up and out. Keep calm and steady with it."

Fukurou had his eyes closed, and had no idea that Oki even was forming hand seals, and he did not try to immitate her in that. Unlike Oki though, Fukuruou had thin bands of flame circling his wrists and ankles...

Oki smiled, seeing the bands of flame.
"Good job, Fukurou. Now what do you want it to do?"

Fukurou breathed slowly. "I want... To control that shield of fire that appears when I am affraid," he said with his eyes still closed, and held up his palms in front of himself with wrists crossed. As soon as he did so, the three flaming comas like a sharringan began to spin in front of his open hands... "But I don't even know how to make the fire come," he said slowly, not wanting to lose the feeling of control he had...

Oki smiled wider.
"Open your eyes, Fukurou, without letting your concentration slip."

"Will that..." Fukurou opened his eyes slowly, and as soon as he saw the flames, they flickered, grew, shrunk, flickered again, and finally stabelized... "Ms. Oki... How did you do that?" he asked, thinking she was somehow responsible for this...

Oki finally released her chakra, sending the nearby water streaming high into the air.
"I didn't, I was working on that. This is all you, Fukurou."

Fukurou's eyes widened, and in responce, so did the shield in front of him. "But... There is nothing attacking me... I'm not affraid right now..." It seemed a complete shock to him that he might be actually controling this somehow, and it wasn't an impulse responce...

Oki laughed. "Well, that's the point of being able to focus. You shouldn't have to wait until you're being attacked; that can fail. But if you can raise your own chakra and channel it out like this, it's more dependable and more versatile. It just takes practice."

Fukurou took his hands apart, and each of them retained their own smaller sharringan circles of flame. He looked amazed and regarded each in turn, and then back again. "So... This IS chakra?" he asked, still amazed, his mouth hanging open a little bit...

"Looks like. Think fast, Fukurou!"
Quickly, Oki crouched down and performed her hand seals, and a stream of water rose and shot towards Fukurou taking on the shape of a dragon as it drew nearer. It wasn't big enough to harm him, but it would knock him off his feet and soak him if he failed to block it.
