Yuuko would sit among the branches of a small tree looking down upon the world around her. She was a bit unsure of how she had ever managed to stumble upon this place, but ever since she had she'd visited often. It wasn't much more than a small clearing surrounded by buildings on all sides. Somehow stumbling through small sidestreets had eventually led her here. She liked the amount of relative peace the small hideaway had dispite being located in the village. People usually didn't come into this area to busy with their own lives to be bothered with it. The most Yuuko had ever seen of others was kids she had encountered here on occassion. She would talk with them sometimes as she was in fact just a kid herself. Being a few years older than the younger children didn't mean much in the end. She enjoyed playing with them, and even sometimes showing them cool little tricks. Other than that there was another reason Yuuko liked the area. It was a pretty good area for training. The tree that was present while small was big enough for her to climb. The lack of people there meant she could use most of her jutsu without worry. Though she would never use any sort of fire or lightning jutsu as she didn't want to start a fire.
As of today Yuuko would decide to practice a bit with her newer jutsu. She had recently begun to learn more elements which required the combined use of the base elements. So far she was able to use both earth, and lightning ninjutsu exceedingly well enough that she could combine them for the allowed use of paper, and gravity related techniques. That combined with her good ability with wind ninjutsu allowed her to also practice with sand, and ink ninjutsu. With all of these new things to try Yuuko was a bit unsure of which one to mess with first. She'd found that previously earth ninjutsu seemed to be more fitting for her. If that was the case then why not go ahead and start out with earth. That would then allow her to warm up before transitioning into the more advanced jutsu. Yuuko would hop down onto the ground making handseals along the way. When she hit the ground she would focus finishing off her handseals, and causing the ground to begin to shift around her. Large amounts of semi liquid mud from the ground would move swirling together a few feet in front of her. After a very short period of time Yuuko would be looking at a copy of herself. She had successfully created a mud clone. It shared all her features looking exactly identical to her despite its muddy origins. Yuuko would smile to herself looking at it. It was definitely pretty good for her little experience with it. Not to mention how useful it would be to her. Now it was time for her to continue on with her training. Unless of course something or someone else had anything to say about that.

A few days had passed since her arrival and the half-breed of Tomoe Country had managed to get herself lost inside the Hidden Leaf. Considering that this concept of a Hidden Village was foreign to her and the sheer size of the village in comparison to her was astronomical, it was not that surprising that she had managed to stumble along the past few days quite easily, but now had managed to get herself lost with not much effort at all. It actually was likely a bad thing for her escort to allow her to get lost like this as there were likely areas of the village that a foreigner was not supposed to be allowed to enter or stumble upon while they were staying. But, she also had not seen much of the village yet and she always could say that she was lost if a citizen of the village questioned why she was where she was. It was also easy for her to back her words up with actions if she had to call upon them, but she did not want to do this at all if she could avoid it as fighting would only bring trouble for herself and anyone involved unless it had been agreed upon before and was sanctioned somewhere like the coliseum that she had been hearing about since her arrival where the students had a tournament before and people went to in order to settle their differences.
