The Crimson Blaze (Solo Training . Tengan X 1, Enton X 1 )+ Reward Dice

Asura continued to stare at the training statue before him-- the dumb wooden dummy that they used for training and practicing. It remained stationary naturally but Asura continued to 'stare it down' intently. It was as if he was trying to get a reaction from it. He stared and stared at it... but nothing happened.

It was as if he was trying to bore through the dummy with his eyes alone.

"Come on, damnit!" Asura swore, throwing his arms out after he stared intently at the dummy. He had hoped the dummy would catch fire with just a gaze, but no such luck. He had been trying to have his Tengan activate but nothing happened.

"I told you it wouldn't open, " Asura's master Roku replied, approaching after he saw Asura trying to stare down the training dummy. "You shouldn't rush it. It will happen on its own when the time is right,"

Asura sighed, realizing his master was right. "You're right... still I hoped to just look at something and have it burst into flames." he replied.

Roku laughed at that, fully aware to the still learning ninja that the Tengan could actually do that with practice. "Why don't we try something else, Asura. Something that would interest you greatly." he said, drawing Asura's attention away from the training dummy. "It is clear now that fire is second nature to you, as it is for all Jiin, but I like to see if you can take it further."

"What do you mean take it further?" Asura asked.

"Are you aware of evolved elements?" Roku asked.

Asura took a moment to think it out but it wasn't too keen on his mind. "Afraid not. I heard something about it but not a lot," Asura replied, rubbing the back of his head.

Roku smiled, confident now that Asura may very well have the potential to this next technique. "Well if you hear the rumors, the Uchiha had the ability to conjure flames hotter than anything-- the Amateratsu, or so its called. It conjures black flames and this style of jutsu is an extension from fire. However, one trained enough in fire can use it as well-- to create flames that can never be extinguished."

Asura paired attention and listened carefully, interested to know that his own fire could be taken further. "For one to unlock the power of Enton, the flames that burn fire itself, you must draw out the fires inside your own soul. Your 'inner fire', that ignites your drive and powers." Roku explained calmly and looked to Asura. "You need only focus inward, feel the flames of your own emotions and draw them to the surface."

"Hmm... you mean like this?" Asura asked as he faced the dummy once more. He took a breath and began to call upon the power of fire. Holding his hands out, he conjured two flames into each of his hands. He focused on the flames, trying to get them to burn hotter, larger. They increased slightly but he kept focusing on them. It didn't happen immediately, but he focused harder and harder.

"Well, its not bad, " Roku said. This is a more advance form of fire after all. Roku said.

But Asura was not one to give up. "No way in hell!" he said, his tone frustrated but dedicated. He was now frustriated with his failure to get the Tengan, and now Enton was being stubborn. His temper was growing thinner."I can get this... I can--"

FWOOOSH!!!

Suddenly the flames in his hands erupted with a fiery towering well above Asura's head, causing him to be thrown down and fall flat on his ass! Roku looked in concerned, worried that his student would be burned by it. But what happened amazed them both. The once normal orange flames had erupted and in their place was a new shade of flame.

But it wasn't black.

The flame glimmered with a bright color. Bright crimson red glowed out of Asura's palms, and lit up the area with its brilliant color. Asura looked in shock to see the new shade of flames, and felt as if he was now in a volcano for the extreme heat he had brought forth. As if on instinct, realizing it was too hot for him, the red flames soon began to simmer down. They had once jetted upward but soon became the same size as the flames before, though they still spilled out of Asura's hands wildly.

Roku looked with amazement. He didn't think that Enton would just erupt from Asura's flames so quickly. Even among the Jiin clan, who mastered fire jutsu to a far stronger level than most ninja, Enton never came that quickly to a person. But for Asura, he had awakened Enton far quicker than he expected. Of course, naturally, Enton was difficult to control. Unlike Katon, Enton focused on fiery destruction in its ultimate form. There was no flame hotter or powerful... with the exception to Cosmic Fires.

"What the hell?!" Asura gasped, seeing the crimson flames flicker off him, now even immolating from his arms and muscles as well. Though hot and mighty, it didn't burn him or his clothing. Still, it was a growing blaze that took all his concentration to maintain and control.

Roku's concern turned to a smile. "I knew it... there is something special about you Asura." Roku said, realizing now what he saw. It was not mere Enton-- but the very flames of Asura's power made manifest. The inner power inside him that burned hotter than any flame, even possible to put on par with the Uchiha's black flames. "These flames are not Enton that is known to us."

Looking bewildered and confused, Asura turned his head to Roku. "What do you mean," he asked, the red flare still burning in his hands.

"It seems your adaptability of fire was almost transcendent. Not only is it easy for you to manifest, likely from your own emotions," Roku said, knowing full well that what really triggered Asura's Enton was his own frustration and anger. "Enton doesn't burn bright crimson, but black. For you to do this, your Enton must be unique to you alone. Very impressive... Very impressive indeed. "

Roku looked on with wonder and amazement, but concern. Asura seemed to have control of Enton for now, but the nature of Enton consumed all in its path. What future would await Asura with this new power, that was up to him and how he chose to wield this new form of chakra nature.
