[legend="That isn’t meant to bend that way!"]
It had been one of those days in Junkos life. Things were just going her way and for no apparent reason other than she was young and full of spirit! Of course when a person finds themselves in such a situation they milk it for everything it is worth because the next time might be far away. Junkos version of milking it would in fact be to just push her limits during her usual daily routine which included but was not restricted to two hours of boxing training, shadowing, heavy bag, speed bag, rope changed from day to day. After that it would be light cardio through and around the village as she did chores that always needed to be done and then finally finished of the day with at least one marathon in the countryside, all whilst wearing weights equal to her carrying eighty of herself on her limbs.
It had been a while though since she had really practiced with her most dangerous and forbidden of techniques. The eight inner gates. She’d get far outside of the village before even attempting anything and she knew the perfect place, a canyon that was near the border to one country or another. One gate at a time she would test her upper limits, sprinting back and forth between the ends of the canyon, generic stuff anyone playing around would do, including putting her fists through the canyon walls like they were made of rice paper. With this method she made it all the way up to the fifth gate, the gate that was recorded as her record since she was fully aware of how much damage it could build onto her body, but what had she been training for all these years? Deciding quickly and probably foolishly, she’d open up the sixth gate with ease that came as a shock to even her, as she did it a funnel of green chakra columned up into the sky, piercing the clouds and it could probably be seen for miles around. “Holy shit!” The girl would call out as she began to move, testing out the power she’d unlocked. “This is fucking amazing! It feels like I’m flying when I move even a little.” She was clearly excited at the raw power her body was creating and got perhaps a little over zealous and where earlier she was controlling her punches as she pounded on the canyon wall, she didn’t excessive that restraint this time which was a mistake. Her punch was impressive no doubt, leaving a hole with a radius of two feet in a perfect circle as if it had been cut professionally, but that’s where it got troublesome. Seeing this perfect hole made her want to do it more and she would go ahead doing just that, pounding the walls of the canyon and creating rumbles in the earth that could likely be felt throughout the country. Before she even knew what was happening, the entire thing began to collapse down around her ears and whilst she was fast enough to avoid being crushed and killed, she didn’t escape unscathed and it would be a long, painful journey back to the village.
It was late afternoon when she came in through the gates, she’d give the person on duty a look that just told them to not even say a word and continued into the village. Her red jacket and pants had been torn rather badly down mostly the left side, revealing a lot of skin which drew a lot of glances. The reason though was not simply because she looked good, all down her side was coated in still dripping crimson blood, leaving a small trail as she walked. The wounds started upon her face, she’d not been able to open up her left eye since it happened and her face was cut up in some places. Her left arm remained limp at her side and it a person were to look closely they might see that it was bent a good half a dozen inches below where her elbow was and finally her leg, cut up to her and complete with a pretty heavy limp. The girl would ignore everything and beeline for the clinic, she’d been injured before but only once was it ever as bad as this. “Genin exam…” She mutters quietly to herself over and over as she relived those horrific, painful memories.
She pushed open the doors to the clinic with her one movable arm and glanced around with her one good, but slightly blood blurred eye and came straight in. “I need a surgeon and a lot of blood…” She said dejectedly. “And some water, gravel and blood do not taste good.” She’d joke and try for a smile only to wince a little at a cut on her lip.
