Shinra, having gotten how to use the technique, came up out of the ground, lifting up off the ground a couple of inches before his feet landed on the disturbed earth, sending out a small dust cloud in all directions as he brushed himself off. "Do you have the hang of your new technique?  And I thought you and O were fast before."

Shinra commented as he reached up to adjust his eyepatch, making sure it was still in place, though it left just a little bit of his scar showing. He looked at Ieyasu, and then away as he let out a light chuckle. "So I think I might be ready for the exams.  And I learned my lesson.  What do you think Sensei?"

Shinra turned back to look at Ieyasu, a little hopeful that things had improved between them as he managed to show some improvement and fast learning from all of his training. He wanted to show that he could be the base of the mountain that supported the team, and that O and Ieyasu could stand at the peak of it. So many earth analogies popping up out of this kid lately. He's got rock for brains probably.

He turned around and looked off to the village, thinking about the coming exam, a little nervous, but more than excited for what was coming. He had some of the basic earth techniques and was prepared to take on other genin.
