Journey of a Drake Shinobi
Explanations, Forming the Team
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe first thing Spike saw after exiting his subconscious were two massive heads and two pairs of giant eyeballs starting right at him, as fast reaction, Spike immediately opened his Sharingans, but after realizing they're Smolder and Ocellus, he sighed in relief before deactivating his Sharingans.
"How long am I out?" he asked, however seeing the red eyed Ocellus, he knew it must've been at least a day or sometime around it.
"You were out for two days!" Smolder half-shouted, "Ocellus had been crying for none-stop!" Huh, seems like Joemath's correct abut the prizes, but let's just slowly get to the point. Spike checked his surrounding, it was in the hospital again. The door opened again and revealed a really, really angry looking Twilight; Ocellus and Smolder eyed each other before giving Spike the signal, then they quickly ran out.
"Uh... Twilight, I can explain-" Spike gulped, he could literally see Twilight's manes on fire.
"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?!" she shouted with her royal canterlot voice, but then she realized their location and quickly covered her muzzle, "Spike? Why didn't you tell me you were going to escort Smolder and Ocellus? Chrysalis and her changelings were active around that area, I could've stopped them."
"Wait Chrysalis?" Spike frowned, seems like she really wants the students dead.
"Don't you know? Thorax warned us a few weeks ago that Chrysalis's drones were spotted near the Everfree Forest, he's worried that she's planning something big, and that Everfree Forest is a no go; but for some reason the entrance of the first is still open." Twilight explained, but then she eyed Spike strangely, "Don't you know this already?"
"Must've hit my head pretty hard." He shrugged.
Twilight sighed, "Anyway, I'm just glad your okay..." her ears dropped, seeing this Spike couldn't help but feel guilty about not telling her. He then quickly rushed over to Twilight and embraced her, Twilight was surprised for a second, but when she focused her eyes on Spike's body, she gasped.
"Spike? Did you just growth sprouted?!"
"Huh? Oh, I think I did, must've unlocked some of my potential when I faced the assassins." Spike said, Twilight's eyes widened in horror.
"ASSASSINS?!"
"Uh... Yeah, faced off four of them."
"FOUR?!?!"
"Geez Twi! They're all de- uh, ran away! Plus I'm fine." Spike said, correcting that sensitive term. Welp, seems like I'll have to get use to none-color words until they accepted my powers.
"Spike, Smolder and Ocellus told me something you did when you faced those assassins," Twilight said, looking straight at his eyes, Spike sighed, he knew this is coming anyway, "what's with your eyes?"
"You mean this?" Spike activated his Sharingans, Twilight was shocked to see his emerald eyes suddenly switched to creepy bloody red eyes with three irises orbiting the center iris, "Well, the truth is... After I woke up from the hit in the head, it seems like I unlocked some sealed powers inside of me somehow; and this pair of eyes is within them. These are called Sharingans, according to one of the ancient Equestrian book of recording of unnatural events. It can predict a little bit into the future, copy anything, increase its user's sight, and can make some illusions to its enemies."
"But how come I haven't heard of this? I thought I have every books about Equestrian history." Twilight narrowed her brows, "but that's not the eyes Smolder described, she said dit looked like six cornered stars with a sharp triangle in the middle."
"Oh you mean the Mangekyo Sharingan?" Spike activated his Mangekyo Sharingan as his eyes switched into another creepier shape, "This is the upgraded version of the Sharingan; it can use more advanced offensive attacks like Amaterasu; an inextinguishable, everlasting black flame that burns their enemies to crisp unless I tell it to stop. But... there is some backfires; if I used too much of Mangekyo Sharingan, my eyes would start bleeding and stinging, then it would... Slowly go blind."
"THEN DON'T USE IT!" Twilight shouted again in his ears.
"Ugh, wait I haven't finished yet." Spike pushed Twilight away gently, she then smiled sheepishly, "As I was saying, the backfire of blindness won't work on me thought, because my Mangekyo Shraingan is eternal, which means it could still bleed and hurt, but I can sue it as many times as I want without going blind."
Twilight looked a tiny bit relieved at that, "But what about that... uh... healing jus... power you have? I don't think that's the only type of power you have." Jeez Twilight, I thought Rarity's the one asking this...
"You are correct, the healing jutsu is just one of the many jutsus I hav, but... Uh, let just find another place to show you some of my jutsu." Said Spike as he looked around the room, "Oh and call the students as well, I need them for this."
On their way out to the field, Joemath began to question Spike about his decision.
Teaching jutsu to the students? You do know that some jutsu acquires lost of chakra; or in this case, magic.
"Half of them were defenseless except for Smolder, but fire breaths aren't gonna defeat anything," Spike said determinately, "plus you have a way to increase their inner magic capacities right?"
Joemath sighed, fine, but know their limits, don't push too hard on them; they aren't build for fighting.
"Spike?" Seeing Spike spacing out again, Twilight couldn't resist asking.
"Huh? What is it?" Spike returned his focus onto Twilight.
"About your sudden growth..."
"Oh, as I said, must've hit and went passed my limitation, which resulted in my sudden growth in both body and age, plus I think my magic level is somewhere at a Beta Alicorn state." Spike said, Twilight's eyes widened even more; once reached Beta Alicorn state in their magic level, they would be powerful as herself and Princess Cadence.
Twilight went silent after that, if this is what she's been thinking... then Celestia must know this...
==================Don't mind me=================
"Spike!" At the field, six figures faced the teenage purple drake; Gallus. Silverstream, Yona, Sandbar, Ocellus, and Smolder; after been called here by Spike, the four asked about it from Smolder and Ocellus; their faces were priceless after hearing their encounter at Everfree Forest, but Spike's mysterious yet powerful type of fighting and his eyes is what attracts them the most.
"So are you going to show us those new skills of yours as promised?" Smolder asked to confirm. Since when did I promised? Spike shook the thought off and answered, "Yes, now these new skills of mine were actually called jutsu."
Seeing the confused faces on the students, Spike smiled, "Here, let me show you some."
The students watched curiously as Spike, using both of his claws, began to quickly form different signs, "Hitsuji, Mi, Tora! Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Four white smoke suddenly exploded around Spike, their jaws dropped when four clones of Spike that looked exactly like him appeared on the spot, seeing the shocked faces, Spike smirked, cancelling out the Shadow clones, he continued.
"Mi, Hitsuji, Saru, I, Uma, Tora! Fireball Jutsu!" Spike inhaled as his mouth inflated in a massive ball of heat, then he exhaled, spitting a massive orange-golden fireball that was shot up into the sky, although standing few feet away, Smolder can still feel the intense heat from the Fireball Jutsu, something's isn't right about the flame, she thought.
"Tatsu, Mi, Hitsuji! Mudwall Jutsu!" Spike gave the ground a stamp of feet, then it starts to rumble as a massive mud wall rises up, forming a protective shield.
"Saru, Tatsu, Ne, Tori, Ushi, Mi, Inu, Tora, Saru! Raiton: Chidori!" A ball of shrieking lighting formed around Spike's right palm, teh shriek sounded almost like a thousand birds screaming. Those tutus ddi placed some weight on Spike as he cancelled out the Chidori, already sweating a bit.
The students were completely shocked, Smolder was the first to react, "Y-you're not expecting us to do those stuff right?"
"Wow, lucky guess, but don't worry," seeing the impossible look on their faces, Spike quickly said, "Let's start from the easiest jutsu; the Shadow Clone, don't worry, it takes only a small amount of your magic."
Starting the jutsu training lesson, Spike began to walk around while helping the students with their jutsu and claw/talon signs, as for Ocellus, she leaner dot do signs using her wings, Yona meanwhile, since she couldn't do much with her hooves, she dices to learn t=some healing jutsu from Spike; turned out, it works perfectly for her.
Finally, after hours of trainings, Smolder was the first to master her jutsu, "Mi, Hitsuji, Saru, I, Uma, Tora! Fireball Jutsu!" Smolder inhaled and spits out a fireball that's not as big as Spike's but it's good enough for beginner, Spike smiled, "Nice job Smolder, I think fire style jutsu are the perfect match for you!"
Smolder chuckled sheepishly while scratching the back of her head, but for some reason, whenever she sees Spike touching hooves or wings with Ocellus, she gets the feeling of slight anger and disappointment, but of course she knew that Spike is just teaching her friend, and that friends shouldn't get jealous of each other; but that feeling is just... painful.
Ocellus was able to perform the water style jutsu, "Ne, Mi, U, Tora! Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu!" She inhaled and spits a stream of water, which formed a massive dragon head made of, of course, water. Unfortunately, that only lasted for about five seconds before it lost controlled and becoming a random stream of water, and fell on top of the Changeling. Seeing the disappointed look on Ocellus's face, Spike went over and comforted her while talking her how to get a better grip on channeling her magic through seals. However, Spike forgot the fact that wings or extremely sensitive spots for creatures, helping her wings seals, Ocellus moaned slightly at the sensation, which earned a glare from Smolder.
As for Silverstream, she was able to master Wind Style: Breakthrough, "Inu, Uma, Tori! Wind Style: Breakthrough!" Again she inhaled and released a full breath of massive and powerful wind current, hmm for some reason it smelled like sea salt...
Gallus, who mastered two jutsu; Wind Style: Immense Breakthrough and surprisingly, Wind Style: Rasengan, however as for the Rasengan, Gallus could only form a Ping Pong ball sized Rasengan, so he decides to learn the Immense Breakthrough first, "Ushi, Tora, Usagi, Tori! Wind Style: Air Bullets!" Inhaled and exhaled, related a stream of bullets made of quick accelerating air currents.
Sandbar, Spike taught him to seal using hooves, as for how, making different motions using hooves; he mastered Earth jutsu, "Hitsuji, Uma, Tatsu! Earth Style: Earth Dragon Bomb!" The ground in front of him shook as a massive dragon head made of mud came, opened its jaws and fired off a ball of mud as if exploded 10 meters away.
As for the three easiest jutsu; Shadow Clone, Transformation, and Body Replacement Jutsu, except for Yona, each of them mastered it pretty well.
"Welp, since you each has your own style of jutsu, I think it's time to form a team."
"Oh! Oh! What's the name?" Silverstream chirped.
Spike placed his left claw under his head, "Hm... Maybe..." Suddenly, a thought came up in his head.
"Akatsuki, the name of our team, is Akatsuki."
