[Closed] Backdated - Battle: Earth
Who: Maria Torres and Neji Hyuuga
Where: Konohagakure - Training Field
When: May 10th
Notes: Trying to learn a new ninjutsu, a guest arrives at the scene trying to accomplish a similar goal.
"Today's the day..."
That had pretty much been what she repeated to herself when she awakened on her day off and headed to the Library. She decided it was time again to expand her ninjutsu abilities and found one just in her element. B-rank Earth Style Wall - that would change up the repertoire she already had. Picking up the scroll from the Library, she headed to the training field and, finding a comfortable spot, sat down and opened it.
"Let's see... Less than hand signs than, but then there's more than..." Lip quirked, she turned her head, pulling the parchment out a little more to keep reading. "Oooh, damn..."
Chakra control wasn't hard for her, but everything she learned so far had been literally liquefying Earth. After all, what's the best way to stall someone except by getting them lodged into the dirt or mud? Green eyes flitted back and her arms crossed as she laid the scroll across her lap and stared harder. "Tiger, Hare, Boar, Dog... and my stance should be like... okay, yeah, I can totally do this."
Rolling the scroll up and putting it aside for the time being, she moved a good distance away from the posts marking the training field and into the open area. She adjusted her stance and rubbed her hands together to get herself revved up. Feeling her chakra flowing, she inhaled and exhaled slowly. Bringing her hands together, she made the symbols as she recalled. 'Tiger! Hare! Boar! Dog!'
There was a rumble, an explosion, and her eyes widened just as the column of mud crashed on her.

"We could try," he offered. "Though without a fair amount of rocks to work with, we may just need to use dried mud and see how that holds up as we attempt to build it higher."
And that really would give them some idea of how thick the earth should be from bottom up.

Seriously, she's pretty awesome at doing that. It's getting things to be solid that she sucked at. Making rocks of a consistent size especially small ones. Anyway, a few hand seals and she hit the ground, releasing her chakra into the ground to liquefy it. This was pretty first year, but picking up mud, she began to build.
