James and Stein P NK

James walks over to Stein, a little suspicious of what he had just done with his hands. He relaxes a little but keeps on his toes, ready to run if Stein shoots those thread things at him. He glances at the drawings, repeating the hand signs real quick, getting them down, before he turns to Stein, kneeling on the ground to get to Stein's wounds. He does the hand signs placing on hand on the first side, he glances at the wound, and can see the blood boiling to the surface, clotting up the wound, and healing it slowly, in total it took four to five minutes. He does the same thing to the other side, this time it took less time, only two and half minutes.
James sits back on the ground, next to Stein, and says, "Wasn't to bad I have to say. So what next? Now anything else, like that marking bit? I can teach you flicker movement, has a cool effect, makes you faster and also causes images to appear behind you."

Stein noticed the kid's hesitation and he shook his head "Not going to harm you" then the Kid stepped forward and began the healing as he was instructed to do, Stein could feel then burn of the heal happen, and then there other side as well, then the itch of the newly grown skin, began and Stein would scratch at it, it had taken a little bit of time total to heal both sides, as the kid sat down next to Stein he would scratch at the side that healed on the front side, listening to James go on about the Mark Seal, and then something called Flicker movement, Stein would shake his head "Sorry not something I am interested in, You have any more Earth Techniques?"

Stein Questioned and waited for an answer, he was not interested in that technique, he had other plans for certain, namely dealing with gathering money to get things he needed, Stein's Mind wandered but his ears were listening as always.

James stands up, stretches, and then says, "Yeah, I know one other earth, but I don't know if I should teach it to you. I mean, I've read the jutsu encyclopedia, and I recognize the marking justu as probably Mark Seal which is a e-rank. In my head, that's not a fair exchange, what I plan on teaching you, and what you plan on teaching me, so whether you like it or not, you're gonna have to figure out something else to teach me, so unless you got something stronger than Mark Seal to teach me, then no deal."
James pulls out his encyclopedia, flipping through a few pages, before stopping on the Mark Seal page. He hands the book to Stein, and says, "See, I mean, no offense, but it's marked E, and my other earth jutsu is an c rank jutsu."

Stein would give a simple nod "I understand, very well, I guess I will teach you mark, but I do not want to learn Flicket whatever , if you would please stay put" Stein would reach with his hand to be placed on James's shoulder and he whispered into James's ear "do you trust me?" and he waited to hear James's response before he continued

James listens as Stein reaches to touch him on the shoulder, and whispers in his ears, "Do you trust me?"
He whispers back, allowing his armor to form around him, "Not when you have to ask me to trust you. Now then, do what you are trying to do, but hurry up and be done with it. If you have nothing to train me on, I will be off, back to my village."

The Armor formed under Stein's hand, Plate of a weird make, but there was a weak spot, the armor was separated between the shoulder and the chest, to allow free movement for the shoulders, sadly for James that was right where Stein's hand was, which was the perfect stop to hit the point above the heart that makes someone act as if they were killed, but its a acupuncture point, and at the point blank range one thread shot aiming to go right through the point, as a Mark Seal would form on the kid and Stein would whisper to the kid as he would black out "Do not freak, You will awake in time".

If this happened, then Stein would heal the wound but it would not make the kid wake back up at this time, which gave Stein enough time to reach into the pocket of the kid that had the protrusion he saw earlier, as the Kid was no longer conscious to keep his armor activated it would not matter as it only got to cover about half of his body before Stein Reacted, thus the pocket with the Ryo in it was left unarmored, and he pulled out a good six grand worth of ryo, Stein would pocket the money and wrote a small note for the kid applogizing but stating this was needed and that in time they would meet again, till then to Study the Mark seal and practice it, as Stein left it visable.

James gets hit with a thread, though all he feels is pain, he accidentally sends chakra to his armor in shock as such it changes back into the writsband. He collapse on the ground, unmoving, unseeing, completely vulnerable. He recedes into his mind, and there he is greeted, by himself.
"Hello, um, who are you?" James ask, and the other James grins. He says, "I am you, more importantly, the you who you could become. I am the hidden strength of the Jugos, that which branded us insane by others. I am the true strength behind  the clan of Jugo."
James looks at  him, and then says, "What do you mean?"
The other James strides over to him, and says, "I have been waiting for another such as Jugo to come. It has been a while since one who can transform as yourself has visited me. We have much to discuss, about what you could become. The original Jugo, had power, this power made others call him mad when he took on the sage transformation, already it is starting with you, but it hasn't taken ahold yet. In order to increase your power as a Jugo, you must unleash the madness that you hold back."
James replies, "But I don't hold madness back."
The other Jame stops grinning, and says, "Not yet, young one, but soon you shall feel the insanity of the can of Jugo."
The other James fades, James panics, and says, "Wait, don't go, i don't know how to get back."
The response James hears, is a maddening laugh, evil, diabolical, and familiar to James. James could metaphorically feel shivers go down his back.
Meanwhile, James's body sat cold, as if dead, as if James had left it behind.

Stein Notices after the armor moved away a second protrusion and reaches into the second pocket, pulling out another seven grand ryo, this kid was a jackpot, Stein would take his coat off that had nothing in it and laid it over the body to help keep it warm for when the kid woke up, making sure the message for the kid was not messed up he would then leave with his new claim's, two in one day, his conciouss might have grown heavy if it wasn't for all those cats in tenga...

"Where are you?" James demands, looking around, in his mind, but seeing nothing. A voice echoes around him, the sound reverberating through James's entire being, the sounds bouncing back to James over and over, with it it says, "Go back, we shall see each other again, go back, you are not ready yet."
It echoes, and echoes, and it drops James to his metaphorical knees. He screams, holding his hands to his metaphorical head, "Stop it, get out of my head."
The echo changes, and lightens with each echo, before it becomes nothing, and the echo changes to, "Good, allow madness to overcome you. Once you are ready, i shall show you the way."
The echoes stops, and James collapses to the ground.
James bounds up, gasping. He looks around, the coat that he blearily recognizes as Stein. A note flutters to the ground, and James picks it up. As he reads it, he gets angry and within his head, echoes, "Good."
He shakes his head and signs, standing up. He flinches at his wound, then realizes it's healed. He sighs, placing the coat on a nearby tree, placing the note in his pouch.
He screams in the air, "STEIN. WATCH YOURSELF."
He starts crying as he can hear, "Madness, that's the key to power."
He punches a tree, before remembers that Stein kept to his promise of of teaching him Mark Seal, albeit, a way James didn't agree with. A young bird stands before him, and taking out a kunai, he glares at it, for it was free from the troubles. He throws the kunai at the youngling, pinning it by it's wing. He touches the bird, mark sealing the bird. He can suddenly feel it's presence faintly in his mind. He grins, taking the kunai out, and stabbing the young bird killing it.
"Madness is key." James says, standing up, tears rolling down his eyes still. He grabs his jutsu encyclopedia, never even touched by Stein, putting it back in place, as he turns to where the gates lay.
He walks, leaving the trees and forests behind, crying until he gets to the gate, then making it look like nothing happened, and leaves the forest behind him.
