A foggy morning it was as B sit on his front doorstep watching the fog thicken like cream being whipped. B hadn’t slept a wink since his last training session with Ded and Kiju-Sensei, leaving his hunger for learning and training in this special are of taijutsu unsatisfied. B would lift himself from the doorstep without using his hands, the sheer strength of his legs lifting him as if he were a vampire. He would then set out into the thick fog in search of his comrade Ded as he travel to his house through little clouds of grey that cover the Konoha streets. After about 6 minutes of a brisk walk into the fog it seemed as if it would start to lift a bit giving more visibility for B to see ahead. As if it were destined or coincidence B would be standing directly 10 feet in front of Ded’s door after walking aimlessly through the fog. He would begin to walk forward before finally reaching the front door as he gave it a forceful knock 3 times “Thump… Thump.. Thump..” as he awaited the newly awakened fist of darkness to answer his call.

DivineZiel: -Looking out his window, he noticed that fog was rolling along the streets as Ded only sighed gently due to the gloomy day. After a bit, Ded was in his new outfit that he would wear daily. Looking around his home, he was thinking of going out after the fog lifted a bit more however, it was a bit later that he heard three knock on his door. Walking towards it, he would undo the five locks, ending with the chain one as he opened the door and only saw B, the fist of power and his close friend. Flashing a small smile, Ded would only open it fully as he said "Hey there, B." Looking around for a moment, he'd only open the door fully as he stepped back a bit and began to put his sandals on. Keeping his eyes on B as he put them on fully and stood up, he walked to him as he said "Guessing you want to train if anything, unless you're just wanting to hang out." Chuckling gently, he waited for a response as he stood there, leaning against his door frame.-

Hearing the sound of clicks and clanks as Ded unlocked the arsenal of locks behind the door before cracking it and flashing a slight smile at B greeting him. Ded would get to the point and figuratively assume B wanted to train if not hangout. B would look up and into the eyes of Ded “I came to put in work, let’s get to the temple.” He would say in a plain monotone voice. B would lift his left hand up to his chin and gently caress it as if he were in thought. “The fist of darkness doesn’t seem to dark, rather chipper and happy… We must unleash it today.” B would say in his mind as he broke his thought process, dropping his hand and bringing his attention back to Ded, “Well lets get a move on then.” B would reiterate as he began walking the path to the Gung-Zu forest his and Ded’s home away from home assuming Ded would be following behind, the training session would be under way soon. The two would travel the hour long trek to the entrance of the forest, still amazed at its beauty but it would not distract B from his goal for the day, getting Ded ready to be able to open the gate at last. The two would reach the front where the silent monk stood still greeting the young boys with a smile as they made their way surrendering their shoes and weapons before making their way out to the bamboo garden, where they had trained with Kiju-Sensei in the days passed. This time sensei would be nowhere to be found, leaving B to take it upon himself to help Ded the way the old man helped him. “It is simple, meditate and find your inner being for a bit, there will be obstacles and focus will be key. Just never let the focus be overcome by your past or thought of your future. Begin…” B would say as he awaited Ded to begin his thought to be easy day of training.

DivineZiel: -Listening to how B's voice would come out with the words he spoke, he'd only nod a bit as he then watched him begin to walk off after a bit since he seemed to be in thought. Closing his door behind him, Ded would begin to follow B towards the Gung-Zu forest. The hour filled with mere silence from the two of them and the smile faded from Ded's lips long ago, they finally came across the entrance to the forest. The gorgeous atmosphere and creatures always got him however, Ded didn't really look to them because he'd get a bit distracted if anything and now wasn't that time to begin with such a thing. With them being greeted by the monk that had always been there at the entrance to the temple, Ded as well as his friend would give up their shoes and weapons for the time being while they walked into the bamboo garden. Looking around not to see the old man, Ded then looked to B as he began to speak. Listening to each word as he noticed that he was helping him through the next stage of training that B went under the other day, Ded would give a slight nod to him while Ded then sat down in the bamboo garden where B had sat just the other day. Closing his eyes after he crossed his legs and rested his palms on his knees, he took a deep breath in through his nose and exhaled out of his mouth. The darkness from his eyelids being closed already helping him lose himself in his mind as he slowly let everything around him fade out. Inside his own mind, he would continue to breath softly on the outside as on the inside, darkness began to plague his mind and his thoughts would race multiple times over. In attempt to calm his mind down, he took a few more deep breaths as he only tried to release himself.-

B would watch as Ded sit down and enter the deepest depths of his mind. “His path will not be like that of mine, his will be filled with hatred and darkness to unleash his inner beast.” B would say as he tapped his chin in thought. B would walk behind and lay an open palm on Ded’s right shoulder, and without saying a word as if he had jointed his mind with his as one, “Fight the light, extinguish it and let your mind go dark, release the beast that resides inside of you. Only then will your true power come forth brother of the fist.” B relay from his mind to Ded’s as he lifted his palm and let him fight his inner self for control of his true power. In the meantime B would make sure his weights were fastened tight as he took off in the blink of an eye running as fast as he could around the inner rim of the temple jumping and running on the walls purposely trying to run his stamina into the ground to ready his body for the endurance of the upcoming chunin exams.

DivineZiel: -Inside his mind, Ded would only keep his eyes closed. Remembering back to when he walked down the unknown path and ended up in the large circular room, seeing the man in the middle. As he was remembering his words, he felt B touch his right shoulder, just above where the wing was sprouting. The words he spoke only made Ded sigh while he knew he had to let go the light inside of him to obtain the power that was to be given to him. At that moment when B finished speaking, Ded remembered the red haired man ask him if he could become such a monster. Through Ded's memory, he said yes and now, at this time, it was the right moment to begin such a test, such a destiny that Ded carved himself out. As he kept breathing, his breaths became slower, almost like nothing while his mind went blank. Beginning to feel like an outside the body experience, instead of lifting up into the air above him, Ded began to sink into the ground, becoming shrouded in darkness. The cold air that rolled around might have been a cause for such a thing however, Ded's entire body would slowly begin to feel cold, as if he had been outside in the winter for long hours of no heat. Looking up to his living being, he only looked down as the light above began to dim until there was nothing. Solitude..silence is all that there was now. Ded's heartbeat would slowly decrease with each passing moment as it seemed like he was slowly letting go right there. With Ded only sitting there, his soul was underground, feeling the claws of darkness rake against his mind as he pushed them away and he let everything go black. There was nothing at all around him, nothing at all.-

B would have circled the garden a hundred times by now, only using up a little less than half of his energy, waiting on the right moment to check on Ded as he sit in a darn meditative state. B would circle the garden of bamboo twice more before pulling his heels up and skidding through the soft dirt about 5 feet leaving two lines behind him as he come to a complete halt about 5 yards from the two boulders Kiju-Sensei would usually be standing. Walking towards the two he would notice the bamboo stick he had used on B during his test of mind, “It’s like he knew…” B would say aloud in a slightly surprised voice as he took the thick stick of bamboo and walked back towards Ded. He would once again place an open palm on his shoulder and connect their minds once more, “Prepare your mind for a mental war my brother.” B would say before he lifted the palm up and gripped the bamboo stick tightly as he began to smack it against Ded’s back at a ferocious pace, causing his mind to flutter and go off track, though in this state Ded would feel no pain his mind would be fighting a small war between light and dark, good and evil, Heaven and Hell. Every time Ded would flinch his mind would become brighter and brighter casting a ray of light to flare. “Shroud your thoughts in the impure darkness, let it rise and unleash the power of the beast that resides in you Ded.” B would say out loud in a stern yet calm voice as he continue to lash his comrade to see if his inner fortitude would overcome or crumble to the light, only time would tell at this point.

DivineZiel: -Staying in the same spot, just as normal, there was something that went against his mind as he felt something touch him but it was as if nobody was there to begin with. Hearing B's voice, Ded would continue to breathe while his body was cold to the touch of B's hand until he pulled it away. At that moment, Ded would hear what sounds like someone beating harshly on a door, everytime B would smack Ded's back with the stick. Light flaring and then going out, only going over again, right now and even for the small amount of time it had been, Ded was in the darkness and the light bothered him, forcing him to extinguish it faster and faster it kept coming into sight. After some time, Ded's tense outter body would become loose as the spirit version let it all go. The pain and happiness of his past slowly fading into darkness. The only things left was the memories of Marshal, his promise and of course his friends, everything else seemed to just be..let go. Agony, suffering and pain was everything that Ded felt and after this amount of time already, it felt like all he knew. The light only after some time stopped popping up as it was complete and utter darkness like the path he walked down when he chose. Ded's heartbeat was no longer there at that moment and a black aura seemed to slowly form around the outside of his body, starting from his head and working its way down. Accepting to be the darkness, the beast, this monster he was to now become, Ded was only becoming less like himself at the mere seems of this all. No breaths leaving his lips. The aura would slowly begin to diminish as Ded was completely silent, not making a single movement or a peep.-

As B kept lashing away he would notice Ded’s body tense up quite substantially. “Let day turn to night Ded, let your body become cold as a winter’s bite.” He would say time himself in his head as he kept going as Ded battle himself inside. After about 6 minutes De’s body had seemed as if it had loosened completely as his muscles relaxed, “Yes, do it… release it…” B would say aloud. As he kept lashing he could see Ded’s body calm and relaxed with a sinister-esque look on his face. Not too long after that B would see a dark aura start to emanate from Ded as he focused more and shrouded himself in the night, the aura got darker and darker signaling the opening of the first gate Kiju-Sensei helped B open the days of pass. “It has been done, you now have access to power greater than that you had ever felt in your life before this moment. Though you can you break the limiter and open it you will need further training before It can be used correctly in combat as the consequences for using such power are dire on the body.” He would say as took a short pause “Now awaken from your state and get some rest we have much more to train come sun up.” He would say following the pause, as he made his way to the barracks Kiju-Sensei had shown the two the last time they had stepped foot on the temple grounds.

DivineZiel: -The words being said to him from B himself, Ded would slowly let his spirit float back up to his body while everything was still dark around him until the two beings of himself morphed back together. Ded's body heat would slowly begin to gather back into him as his heartbeat only started to slowly pump again and his breaths started once more. His eyes slowly opened as his yellow eyes glowed for a mere second and dimmed back down to what they usually were. Pushing himself up to a standing position, he would look back to B as he gave a slight nod and then started to walk with him to the barracks where they had slept before. Upon walking behind him, his back would've been bleeding a bit here and there from the lashes he took from the stick with B in control of it as he felt no pain from it. Following him into the room of bed with no pillows that seemed always like a stiff time, Ded would walk to the same bed he used before with B doing the same for the last one he used as they both laid down and fell asleep not too long. The only difference of when Ded slept before to this time, was that his eyes were still open as he slept, as if he saw everything and the darkness was there even with his eyes open.-
