"W-wha-..."
clapping my mouth shut with an audible sound, I decide to stay silent and merely do as instructed. Without wasting a second, I flex my hands and gets down on the ground. Pausing for a moment before I begin, I look up at you, cringing slightly at your serious expression before I look down again. Without further ado, I begin to take one thousand push-ups.
While I can indeed feel my muscles burning slightly as I push them further and further, I never wince or groan during the push-ups. I do, however, begin to sweat. Which is a bad sign considering that this is probably just the beginning of the warm-up.

I want to hear the numbers aloud. Repeat ;)

Finally letting a groan escape my lips, I look at you with a deadpan expression as I falter slightly from the strain of all the push-ups. Refusing to say a word I narrow my eyes in concentration and repeats the process of taking all those puhs-ups. I manage to take ten before I pause briefly, shooting you a dirtly look as I resume the push-ups, now counting aloud in a clear, sarcastic tone.
"1!"
Sweat slowly starts to form on my forehead and as I take more and more push-ups and dehydrate more and more, my voice becomes slightly raspy.
"673..."
Refusing to pause even for a moment, I grunt in pain at the feeling of my muscles burning. But concentration and mental coaching, I get closer and closer to my goal.
"941"
My arms wobble slightly as I shake my head to get the sweat out of my eyes and at one time, my arms seemingly refuse to move in the middle of a push-up. It takes me the better part of a minute, several curses and single, pained snort to force myself to continue.
"1000"
The second the word leaves my mouth I collapse, banging my head into the grass and groaning almost inaudibly.

I heard the 1st, the 673th, the 941th and the 1000th. Where are the others?
Muah. Ah. Ah.

I heard the 1st, the 673th, the 941th and the 1000th. Where are the others?
Muah. Ah. Ah.
Why the moaning?
Sighing pitifully, I begin taking push-ups yet again.
"1"
I grit my teeth in frutration.
"2"
I really don't wanna do this again.
"3"
Why would she even have me do this many push-ups?
"4"
I don't like push-ups
"5"
Damn this is tough
"6"
I can fell my muscles burning
"7"
It hurts like hell.
"8"
Really, this is just mean.
"9"
Damn push-ups!
"10"
AUCH! What the hell?
"11"
Oh shit.
"12"
I think my shoulder popped out of its place or something.
"13"
Oh no, this isn't good.
"14"
Damn it hurts like hell.
"15"
Maybe if I...
"16"
DAMNIT!
"17"
Oh hell that hurt.
"18"
Why push-ups?
"19"
Why would she choose push-ups of all things?
"20"
Damn, this is gonna take forever.
"21"
At least my shoulder is okay again...
"22"
No, no it isn't.
"23"
For the love of....
"24"
Has she no mercy?
"25"
My arms are gonna be the size of trees after this workout.
"26"
I'll have an extremely strong upper-body.
"27"
But my legs will probably shrink to the size of matches.
"28"
I don't want my legs to become that small.
"29"
I'd look like some kind of monkey...
"30"
Monkey's are okay.
"31"
But I don't wanna look like them.
"32"
Is she actually serious about a thousad push-ups?
"33"
This is retarded...
"34"
OH GOD!
"35"
Something definitely just snapped.
"36"
Oh, it was just a twig.
"37"
Where the hell did that even come from?"
A damn twig.
"38"
I screamed like a sissy because of a damn twig.
"39"
Mother of God!
"40"
This is gonna take forever!
"41"
Have I really just taken forty?
"42"
It feels like a thousand...
"43"
Maybe my mind is jusy messing with me.
"44"
So in reality, I'm already done with all the push-ups.
"45"
But I'm just so fatigued I'm having hallucinations.
"46"
Damn illusions.
"47"
Maybe she has a Sharingan hidden somewhere?
"48"
That would explain some stuff.
"49"
Maybe it's hidden on her buttocks?
"50"
I'll have to check that later.
"51"
Right now, though.
"52"
I have these damn push-ups to do.
"53"
I hate that word.
"54"
Push-ups.
"55"
Who the hell came up with that?
"56"
It's the stupidest word ever.
"57"
How can I still have this many push-ups left?
"58"
Why do I keep saying push-ups?
"59"
It's so retarded.
"60"
I don't wanna say it anymore.
"61"
Screw this.
"62"
Why am I counting aloud?
"63"
She can count herself, can't she?
"64"
Why am I supposed to keep track of everything?
"65"
Damn it all.
"66"
I don't even...
"67"
Oh no...
"68"
Here comes the cramps.
"69"
Auch.
"70"
I have this most peculiar numbness in my arms.
"71"
Not even one damn tenth of the way.
"72"
There's still so much to do!
"73"
How does anyone do this three times in a row?
"74"
I think I just puked a bit.
"75"
"Tastes like puke...
"76"
Oh goddy...
"77"
It is puke.
"78"
My day is all but complete.
"79"
Now all I need is impotence.
"80"
That was sarcams, by the way.
"81"
She's looking at me oddly.
"82"
She can't read minds can she?
"83"
Come on, she's powerful sure...
"84"
But reading minds?
"85"
She's grinning wickedly...
"86"
What have I done!?
"87"
Please!
"88"
I can't have jinxed it that easily!
"89"
I only said it once!
"90"
Oh no...
"91"
Phew.
"92"
She was just looking at that innocent bird over there.
"93"
Why is she?
"94"
Is she eating the bird?
"95"
Why in the world...
"96"
I'm hallucinating again, aren't I?
"97"
Holy moly.
"98"
This can't be one tenth!
"99"
I feel like I'm dying!
"100"
Did she do anything like this during her training?
"101"
There's no way...
"102"
She's probably just making it harder to piss me off.
"103"
But if this is just the warm-up...
"104"
My arms are gonna be like jelly.
"105"
Not just for the night, or the week.
"106"
For the rest of my goddamn life.
"107"
This very much sucks.
"108"
I'm not even thinking straight.
"109"
I could use a smoothie...
"110"
Well, tripples.
"111"
I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
"112"
Mad laughter will make me seem...
"113"
Well, mad.
"114"
And crying...
"115"
There's just no way.
"116"
I refuse to cry over push-ups
"117"
I am a grown goddamn man!
"118"
I make my own lunch and mow my own lawn!
"119"
I can crush mountains with a single handseal.
"120"
But damnit if this ain't harder than any Doton technique I've ever tried.
"121"
And I've tried a lot of Doton techniques.
"122"
I could attempt a seal-less Suiton technique...
"123"
But maybe she'll punish me for using Ninjutsu.
"124"
Maybe she'll make me do all these push-ups again.
"125"
Can't have that.
"126"
I hate doing this.
"127"
It's so tedious.
"128"
Boring, to say the least.
"129"
Almost as boring as that dude...
"130"
What was his name?
"131"
Something with Doom.
"132"
Blah.
"133"
It's not like it matters.
"134"
Doom can very well go die in a ditch for all I care.
"135"
Or was it Blue?
"136"
Blue or Doom.
"137"
One of those two, definitely.
"138"
I'm running out of stuff to write...
"139"
And counting without thinking seems a bit depressing.
"140"
Not to mention boring.
"141"
And that would mean giving up.
"142"
And I don't give up!
"143"
Cheesy, I know.
"144"
But seriously.
"145"
I hate giving up.
"146"
It's like...
"147"
Eating a banana.
"148"
With poo on it.
"149"
Because some dude dared you to do it.
"150"
And you're halway through.
"151"
It tastes like shit.
"152"
Literally.
"153"
But right there in the middle of it all.
"154"
You throw the banan away.
"155"
And everybody around you will be like.
"156"
Why would you eat half of it?
"157"
If you won't even complete the dare anyway?
"158"
That's not half-cool.
"159"
That's just gross and stupid.
"160"
But if you picked the banana up.
"161"
And then ate it in one mouthful.
"162"
Dirt, shit and everything.
"163"
Then people would be like.
"164"
My God!
"165"
That was awesome!
"166"
And then they would call you gross for the rest of your life.
"167"
But there's a point!
"168"
Point is.
"169"
Don't let peer-pressure get to you.
"170"
It's bad for your chakra and karma.
"171"
And whatnot...
"Anyway.
"172"
Where was I?
"173"
Oh yes, that's right.
"174"
I was in the middle of whining about these push-ups.
"175"
I'm really running out of things to think about.
"176"
Might as well just think about rainbows.
"177"
Or candy.
"178"
Why am I even thinking?
"179"
It's not like she's asking me to think.
"180"
She's just asking me to do push-ups.
"181"
Oh God...
"182"
Have I just wasted all this time...
"183"
Thinking about stuff when I don't have to?
"184"
Well, that's just grand.
"185"
Now I'm stuck thinking forever.
"186"
Or at least until I reach a suitable number.
"187"
I must have some kind of OCD.
"188"
I can't just stop thinking now.
"189"
It doesn't feel right.
"190"
I'll reach a fifth.
"191"
And then go crazy.
"192"
But damn if I don't hate it.
"193"
All these damn push-ups.
"194"
They're stupid.
"195"
And so am I.
"196"
Well, almost there.
"197"
Just a little more.
"198"
So close...
"199"
YES!
"200"

"201 202 203 204 205 206 207 208 209 210 211 212 213 214 215 216 217 218 219 220 221 222 223 224 225 226 227 228 229 230 231 232 233 234 235 236 237 238 239 240 241 242 243 244 245 246 247 248 249 250 251 252 253 254 255 256 257 258 259 260 261 262 263 264 265 266 267 268 269 270 271 272 273 274 275 276 277 278 279 280 281 282 283 284 285 286 287 288 289 290 291 292 293 294 295 296 297 298 299 300 301 302 303 304 305 306 307 308 309 310 311 312 313 314 315 316 317 318 319 320 321 322 323 324 325 326 327 328 329 330 331 332 333 334 335 336 337 338 339 340 341 342 343 344 345 346 347 348 349 350 351 352 353 354 355 356 357 358 359 360 361 362 363 364 365 366 367 368 369 370 371 372 373 374 375 376 377 378 379 380 381 382 383 384 385 386 387 388 389 390 391 392 393 394 395 396 397 398 399 400 401 402 403 404 405 406 407 408 409 410 411 412 413 414 415 416 417 418 419 420 421 422 423 424 425 426 427 428 429 430 431 432 433 434 435 436 437 438 439 440 441 442 443 444 445 446 447 448 449 450 451 452 453 454 455 456 457 458 459 460 461 462 463 464 465 466 467 468 469 470 471 472 473 474 475 476 477 478 479 480 481 482 483 484 485 486 487 488 489 490 491 492 493 494 495 496 497 498 499 500 501 502 503 504 505 506 507 508 509 510 511 512 513 514 515 516 517 518 519 520 521 522 523 524 525 526 527 528 529 530 531 532 533 534 535 536 537 538 539 540 541 542 543 544 555 556 557 558 559 560 561 562 563 564 565 566 567 568 569 570 571 572 573 574 575 576 577 578 579 580 581 582 583 584 585 586 587 588 589 590 591 592 593 594 595 596 597 598 599 600 601 602 603 604 605 606 607 608 609 610 611 612 613 614 615 616 617 618 619 620 621 622 623 624 625 626 627 628 629 630 631 632 633 634 635 636 637 638 639 640 641 642 643 644 645 646 647 648 649 650 651 652 653 654 655 656 657 658 659 660 661 662 663 664 665 666 667 668 669 670 671 672 673 674 675 676 677 678 679 680 681 682 683 684 685 686 687 688 689 690 691 692 693 694 695 696 697 698 699 700 701 702 703 704 705 706 707 708 709 710 711 712 713 714 715 716 717 718 719 720 721 722 723 724 725 726 727 728 729 730 731 732 733 734 735 736 737 738 739 740 741 742 743 744 745 746 747 748 749 750 751 752 753 754 755 756 757 758 759 760 761 762 763 764 765 766 767 768 769 770 771 772 773 774 775 776 777 778 779 780 782 782 783 784 785 786 787 788 789 790 791 792 793 794 795 796 797 798 799 800 801 802 803 804 805 806 807 808 809 810 811 812 813 814 815 816 817 818 819 820 821 822 823 824 825 826 827 828 829 830 831 832 833 834 835 836 837 838 839 840 841 842 843 844 845 846 847 848 849 850 851 852 853 854 855 856 857 858 859 860 861 862 863 864 865 866 867 868 869 870 871 872 873 874 875 876 877 878 879 880 881 882 883 884 885 886 887 888 889 890 891 892 893 894 895 896 897 898 899 900 901 902 903 904 905 906 907 908 909 910 911 912 913 914 915 916 917 918 919 920 921 922 923 924 925 926 927 928 929 930 931 932 933 934 935 936 937 938 939 940 941 942 943 944 945 946 947 948 949 950 951 952 953 954 955 956 957 958 959 960 961 962 963 964 964 966 967 968 969 970 971 972 973 974 975 976 977 978 979 980 981 982 983 984 985 986 097 988 989 990 991 992 993 994 995 996 997 998 999 1000"

That wasn't even funny >_<

Well, without wikia, my knowledge is rather limited.
The Eight Inner Gates, also known as the Hachimon, are basically chakra-output limiters. Basically, they limit the flow of chakra through your body, to ensure that the flow doesn't strain your body. Just as ATP and Adrenaline makes the body function better for a limited amount of time, at a price, opening the gates allows the users body to function at its full potential, at a price. The Gates are placed different places in the body: I'm not entirely sure, but I think there's two in the brain, one in the heart and five along the spine, but I'm not entirely sure without wikia. Eveyr gate is also connected, to a certain degree, to the body itself, meaning that it's not just the chakra flow that is effected when the gates are opened. For example; opening the first gate allows the user to use 100% of his muscle-capacity, instead of the regular 20%. While this is not an extreme jump from a very concentrated adrenaline and ATP rush, it's definitely an improvement. With enough training, it's possible to open several Gates at once, just as it, with enough training, is possible to close without having to wait for the body to simply run out of energy. Eh, the Eigth Gate, which is placed near the heart, causes the users death once it has been opened. Meaning that while it gives the user an almost unimagineable amount of raw power, it comes with a prize that one can only pay once. The 4th gate makes one's skin red and the seventh makes one sweat green.
That's all I got without the wikia ;_;

EDIT: The Sharingan on your butt was simply too awesome to not write down O:

The Gate of Opening, Kaimon, located in the brain.
The Gate of Healing, Kyūmon, located in the brain.
The Gate of Life, Seimon, located on the spinal cord.
The Gate of Pain, Shōmon, located on the spinal cord.
The Gate of Limit, Tomon, located in the abdomen.
The Gate of View, Keimon, located in the stomach.
The Gate of Wonder, Kyōmon, located below the stomach.
The Gate of Death, Shimon, located at the heart.

Would you look at that, I was almost correct about their positions.
I was wrong about the skin turning red at the fourth Gate though, that occurs at the third Gate.

Yeah, don't worry about that. Now, here are some rules. I know you have access to them, I just thought it would be good to have them summarized here.

So, no1, you can't use Genjutsu on the same round as the one you decide to open the gates.

Then you, in your current situation, will have to charge chakra on each gate, requiring 1 second to open them. You will acquire the following bonus:

Gates 1-3 increase damage by 5 for each hit, user damage=5 per turn gate is active
Gates 4-6 increase damage by 10 for each hit, user damage=10 per turn gate is active
Gates 7-8 increase damage by 20 for each hit, user damage=20 per turn gate is active(8th gate kills user after the attack is done)

Once you open the first gate, you may open more, as many as you like. Each will have it's own Technique, yet it will only count as 1. As soon as you open the first, you will have 3 turns before it runs out, and leave your physically useless. You may choose to open the gates over the course of the 3 turns, you don't have to open all of them right away.

After this training is done, count 3 months and then you will be eligible to test for EIG Mastery, opening room to a wider range of skills, such as Ninjutsu and Opening more than one gate at a time.

I understand. I didn't know there was a test for EIG Mastery though. Neat.

Of course there is a test. Everything has a test these days >_>

Well then, start charging chakra into your first gate. You should feel it filling up with chakra until you force it to breach it.
Oh, so you wanna learn the five basics, huh? Well, here's your application and your first written examination begins on Friday.
________________________________________________

I close my eyes in concentration as I try my best to 'connect' with my chakra network. I search for the feeling of my chakra coursing through my body, its reaction to my soul and harmonious excistence with my every breath. I extend a mental hand, feeling the way my chakra network co-exists and runs alongside my veins. I try my best to grasp my chakra's entire existence in my body and its exact course and speed.
I start out slowly, by doing as I do when I perform a regular technique, manipulating my chakra flow to a certain location in a certain amount. This time, I simply direct more chakra through my brain, expecially that single point in the brain where the Kaimon is located. Frowning in concentration and clenching my fists in anticipation, I run even more chakra through the point, not battering at it like a ram, but slowly overwhelming it, trying my absolute best not to cause a spontanous opening that I'm not prepared for. Applying more pressure and directing more chakra towards the point, I find myself listening to my own heartbeat and the non-existent sound of chakra coursing through my body, pulsing as it does so in perfect symmetry with my heart, creating a sound that is peaceful, yet wild. With a final effort, I direct a last push towards the Kaimon, tensing as I do so.

*And the gate burst open, filling you with an overwhelming blast of chakra.*

You should feel your metabolism slowly increasing, as well as large discharges of adrenaline. Your muscles should palpitate heavily throughout your body, as you feel them to their limit.

Feel the power and come at me with a couple of punches and kicks!

I giggled like a girl when I saw your post =/ Gates! GRAWR!

I smile wickedly as I flex my muscles, feeling the strength coiling just below the surface. Seemingly in a frenzy from the new burning sensation of having my body operating at such a potential, I reach out for you with my left hand, clawing in emty air and narrowing my eyes as I fail to come into contact with a neck. With a single, rude gesture, I zoom towards you at top-speed, arms placed loosely behind me. As I get into range, I set of into the air, twisting my body into a horizontal positon with my head to your right and spinning clockwise around at incredible speed as I do so. I immediately stretch my arms and legs outwards, into something akin to a split. Still spinning with incredible speed, one of my legs should hammer into the top of your head should you remain in the position you are now and my arms should serve to limit your chances of escaping. Naturally, I have my hands clenched into fists.

A bit flashy, sorry.
