Kapitel 12: Chapter 12: Finding my chakra
heading home after some not-so-stressful talks Shikaku walked in on his wife telling Shikamaru to head to bed.
"Hey, I'm home." Shikaku greeted the two of them.
Yoshino smiled up at him already having sensed him coming back "Welcome back dear, how did the clan meeting go?"
"They went well, we won't be having any repercussions and in case we need to have a Yamanaka check our minds I made sure that all other clan heads would get a check as well, and Fugaku and Danzo clearly didn't like that, but for the rest nothing really happened, I did get to know all the current summoners present in Konoha, recently there was another summoner who appeared but it wasn't anyone special, but I do have a couple interesting facts that we can add to our history records."
"Hey dad and does that mean that I can summon raccoons whenever I want?"
'He called me dad!' on the inside Shikaku was delighted at the fact that his son called him dad, since Shikamaru only called him father whenever he did call him dad he'd be freaking out on the inside, but on the outside he was as cold as a brick wall, "Yes, but I will have to teach you the summoning technique but that will only be for later, for now go on and head to bed, I will explain you chakra tomorrow."
So the family of three all headed off to bed.
After waking up Shikamaru quickly got up and washed his face in the sink that was in their bathroom, then he headed to the kitchen to get breakfast which they do together every morning, it was a sort of morning ritual.
So he quickly sat down in my seat and watched as his mother made breakfast, "Good morning, mother, father."
And again for a second Shikaku looked dejected but quickly got over it, "Good morning Shikamaru, today I will explain you basic chakra theory and give you an exercise to train your charka control but for now lets eat breakfast."
His mother also spoke up, "And we will also begin your training with weapons, I figured that learning how to use a kusarigama will be useful, but we will only begin when you master your first chakra control exercise, so be sure to work hard if you want to start learning how to use weapons."
They quickly ate breakfast and all headed out, Shikamaru going with his father and his mother going to the monthly meeting of the 'Allied Mothers Force'.
They reached the training ground they always use and sat down on the ground, "Alright Shikamaru, first I will explain what chakra is, the easiest way to explain it is to say that it is a combination of your Yin and Yang energy, Yin for the mind and Yang for the body, we the Nara are more accustomed to Yin chakra which allows us to use our clan techniques to control shadows, now the first thing you need to know is how to find your chakra and for that you will need to meditate until you find a weird kind of warmth in your stomach, at first it will take quite a while until you find it but you will get better with time, so get right to it, start meditating."
~~~Shikamaru POV~~~
I sat down in my usual meditative stance which was just a normal lotus position, and focused on the area of my stomach, I never thought that I would need to find my chakra on my own, then again it never was really explained how children used chakra for the first time, at first I thought that by using hand signs the chakra would automatically move the way I wanted it to, but I guess that this made more sense.
So I started searching for a warm feeling and to my surprise found that after just sitting there for 10 minutes I could already feel a sort of gooey and thick warm fluid inside my stomach, it felt as if I had full control of it but once I tried to move it I found that I could only move it bit by bit, weirdly when I 'touched' it, it felt as if I was touching a rugged rock and a ball of fire, which was quickly overtaken by a cool and calm feeling as if I knew that whatever the heat was, it wouldn't hurt me.
I slowly started moving my chakra from my stomach up my body, through my torso and into my arms, the further I got from my stomach the easier it felt to control my chakra, I was guessing that it was because by the time I reached my arm the chakra was flowing like normal water and not like a sticky substance, I think the closer I was to my stomach the denser the chakra was which made it harder to control it, but the further I got from my stomach the less thick it was making it easy to control, and I could freely control it by the time it reached my palm.
I opened my eyes only to look at the shocked face of my father, "Uhm, dad, are you okay?"
"H-how?" my dad looked shell shocked.
"how what?" I simply asked clueless as to why he was this shocked.
"How did you already manage to find your chakra? Even I took 1 week to find my own, how is this even possible?"
I tilted my head sideways looking even more confused, "What do you mean? I just searched for a warm feeling in my stomach and found a gooey and warm substance in my stomach and I figured that was chakra so I just touched it and took control over it, it wasn't really hard."
My dad stood up and sighed deeply, "Why do you have to be so troublesome?" with a final sigh he sat back down and continued on to the next part of our explanation.
"Well, now that you have found your chakra I guess I can show you the chakra control exercise, it's called the leaf concentration exercise." He demonstrated by grabbing one of the stray leaves of the ground and making it stick to his finger, "All that you have to do is make the leaf stick to your hand or forehead, when you can hold multiple for at least an hour I will consider this technique mastered."
So I tried doing it and quickly found out that by the time I got the chakra from my stomach to my hand that the leaf would have already fallen to the ground, so the first thing I had to do was increase the speed of how fast I could move the chakra in my body, gradually I managed to increase the speed of moving my chakra from 10 minutes to 5 but I was feeling very sleepy and tired, so I did the logical thing and fell asleep.
My father looked down at me, smiled and shook his head, "This kid is going to be so troublesome when he grows up."

So here's the newest chap, thank you to anyone wishing me to get better, and I saw that many people complained about things not being factually correct compared to canon, now all I can say that this is fanfiction and expect things to be different, if you want the original go watch naruto, anyway I will also say that many things will be AU although not in the kind of way that you expect as in he won't suddenly start helping out everyone making them OP, no it will be more like his actions will have consequences and not everything will go as planned, also for chakra theory I will be throwing my own spin on it so it will also be AU and thx for reading!
