Kabuto leads Hanabi along the path to the meadow near his hut. "Does this look good enough for you?"

((Probably won't respond until tomorrow. Sorry, muse is dead.))

"This should be fine," said Hanabi. "After all, you're showing me medical jutsus, not techniques that cause massive landscape damage."

((Not a problem. ^^ Real life happens.))

[ninja_doctor]

Kabuto smiles. "That I am. Now, you've had no prior experience with all this?"

((...so, I'm an idiot. Feel free to poke me on AIM the next time I do something like this.))

Hanabi shook her head. "My sister is a med-nin and I saw her working often enough, but I've never made the attempt to do any medical jutsus myself."

[ninja_doctor]

Kabuto filed this information away. "Alright then, we can start with the basics. I don't suppose too much of a demonstration will be necessary?" He holds up a glowing hand. "Simply concentrate on creating the specific kind of energy."

[hyuugafireworks]

Hanabi activated her Byakugan. By seeing how chakra flowed, she generally caught on to techniques reasonably quickly. She made some mistakes through trial and error of course, but at least observing this way allowed her to have a good grasp of what she was supposed to be doing.

"How do you create that kind of energy?" she asked.

[ninja_doctor]

"Relax and breathe rhythmically, then concentrate on cellular regeneration. It takes a lot of control, but there's no need for seals, and it can be very useful indeed."

[hyuugafireworks]

Hanabi used the same breathing that she did when meditating, and did her best to relax herself. Envisioning cellular regeneration took a little longer, but after a few minutes of effort, her hand produced a faint glow of chakra that would at least do some healing.

"Like this?" she asked, a little uncertain. "It's not nearly as intense a glow as what you managed."

[ninja_doctor]

"It's impressive for just starting out. It ought to be able to at least clean up some scratches."

[hyuugafireworks]

"Scratches is mainly what I have after sparring against Toph," said Hanabi. "Scratches and bruises. One cut that I had to wrap up, ice, elevate and put direct pressure on to stop the bleeding, but not serious enough to require stitches."

She looked thoughtful. "Did I get the technique right, Kabuto? Aside from the improvements that are made with practice?"

[ninja_doctor]

"Cuts can be dealt with easily enough, but not just yet. Indeed. You may have some potential in this field."

[hyuugafireworks]

Hanabi smiled a bit at that. "One of the elder med-nins working at the hospital in my universe's Konoha sometimes lamented that there were not more Hyuugas interested in the medical field."

Releasing the chakra from her hand, she asked, "So, should we try something else, or would you like me to practice that one until I've fully gotten it?"

[ninja_doctor]

"One of the things you'll find about medical jutsu is that there's very little to learn and a vast amount to master. Keep practicing."

[hyuugafireworks]

"When I've mastered or at least come close to mastering this technique, can you show me how to deal with poison?" Hanabi asked.

[ninja_doctor]

"Alright. For now, just try and get yourself cleaned up from the fight."

[hyuugafireworks]

At that instruction, Hanabi brought back the healing chakra in her hand, focusing as Kabuto had instructed, and set about repairing some of the scrapes, bruises and cuts on her body. The minor scrapes and bruises gradually went away, but she concluded that the one larger cut that she'd gotten in the fight would take another try.

A few beads of sweat appeared on her forehead after she'd spent more than five minutes holding up the technique. It really did take a lot of focus and intense chakra control, but her body was being fixed.

Her eyes suddenly widened, and she released the healing chakra to clutch at a covered place around her collarbone. That was threatening to flare up again, and it was like a burning itch under her skin, where she couldn't reach.

Kabuto waits for her to either look like she'll be ok or start having fits, whichever comes first.
