Kurama stood in the center of a large clearing out in the woods. He'd been trying to memorize the incantation for a new kido all morning and for this particular practice session he wished to be in a secluded area. This kido happened to be rather loud and he didn't wish to disturb other classmates that were still at lessons.

Kurama had a straw dummy set up at the northern edge of the clearing, the dummy looked a lot like the one he'd incinerated just the other day. He began by warming up with some stretches, having learned the other day that built up tension in his arms could lead to possible blockage of his spiritual energy. Once he finished his little workout, he assumed the position to preform the act of kido.

Kurama took a deep breath and began reciting the incantation. "May the black sounds of those that have felt death emit and destroy. Hado #7 Black Thunder!"

A large wave of black reiatsu flew at the targeting dummy, accompanied by a thunderous-like sound as it passed by. It splintered the wooden beam that held up the dummy and shred the clothing it wore. The dummy fell down in a pile of wood and straw. Kurama stood there in a combination of shock and awe. 'Just imagine if that'd been a hollow.' "That's awesome!"
