OOC: Thank you so much for the opportunity Sarutobi-sensei. :x3:
It was a bright and sunny day and

decided to he would take a leisurely walk into the forest. He had nothing to do that day and although he knew he had training later he decided that a quick stroll would be good for him. As he entered the lush, green forest he could hear the faint chirp of the birds and the wind passing through the trees. It was about summer and he knew that outside the forest was hot. It seemed rather strange but who was he to judge this weird phenomenon.
Walking on he suddenly heard the roar of a bear. Knowing quite a bit about the forest, Shin knew that the bear was angry as if it was threatened. And the only other thing that bears didn't like aside from mountain lions was humans. Assuming the worst, Shin ran towards the roaring only to see it screaming at a man who was on the floor begging for his life. Shin took out his Giant Fuuma Shuriken and warned the bear that he would throw it at him. The bear not wanting to involve himself in a fight decided that he would just walk away. Shin approached the scared man and spoke:
"You know you shouldn't try to feed them. The smell of fish and they are all over you like Oprah at a buffet."
The man got up dusting himself off and speaking in an annoyed manner:
"I wasn't trying to feed them. I was trying to kill it."
"(Curious) Kill it? What for?"
"I wanted to make a hide jacket for my sensei."
"(Surprised) You have a sensei? What is he teaching you?
"(Cheerfully & Smiling) He is teaching me Fire Techniques. Why you ask? You want learn with me?"
"(Overexcited) Would I?! (Regaining composure) Ahem..I would welcome it gratefully."
"Come to tomorrow to our training session and just follow what he asks you."
"You have a awesome sensei if he allows such a thing."
"He is. He is really smart. (Walks away) See ya tomorrow at the place I told you."
As they walked away, Shin felt happy that he had made a friend and had been invited into training with such a renowned sensei. The man had told him who he was and a little about his history. As Shin arrived at the local tavern, he noticed one of his friends
Skorm and sat down for an ale. They reminisced about old times and later left to their abodes.
As Shin got up early the next day, he performed a couple warm ups to ready his body and get his chakra flowing in a smooth manner to increase his productivity.
As he arrived to the training grounds he saw the two were already waiting for him. Shin bowed before the sensei and spoke:
"Hello sensei. I appreciate for allowing me to train under your tutelage. I won't disappoint you."
He then spoke leaving Shin hanging and looking like a fool:
...Now then, since this is a fresh training let's assess what you know about Fire already. Tell me everything you know about fire, strengths, weaknesses, known users, advantages/disadvantages etc.
Shin: "Fire is one of the basic five elemental ninjutsu utilized by shinobi of our world. It is a trademark style of the Uchiha Clan and in the hands of a skilled user can be quite deadly. It consists of two forms, stream-like and projectile. Its heating ability can evaporate water but it requires a really huge amount and more chakra. Its power can be augmented through a lower tier wind technique, easily overpowering it. Fire is weak towards water but it depends on the amount.
I heard of one such legendary fire user. His name was Uchiha Madara I think. Hiruzen-sama, aren't you well known for using fire as well? As for advantages....I think if you combine it with Wind you can make it stronger. Someone once told me that fire blocks your view of your opponent and vice versa. That can either be to your advantage or disadvantage. But to be honest I am not sure on it advantages/disadvantages."
...Now then, you'll need to learn to mold fire chakra so... *snaps fingers and a ring of flames sprout from the ground around us, the intense heat shortly causes you to sweat. Now, sit here and concentrate on the fire surrounding you, let the heat penetrate you and allow your chakra to flow naturally as you meditate and tell me how you feel.
Shin sat down a good distance from the flames but still within the ring of fire. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He could hear the flickering flames around him. He could sense the flames around him and how its heat was warming him up. It brought a lot of warm memories to him like sitting at a campfire. He remembered the feeling he felt when looking at it. It was full of power and very mysterious. Who knew that an element could be so destructive yet so warm and gentle. It inspired a lot in Shin and seeing it eye to eye made him feel strong and powerful. He could feel its strength inside hm. Almost like a mighty lion or humongous dragon (insert humorous joke here). Shin closed his eyes again and he focused on the energy of the fire and felt it flow inside him.
