00008. New family member!

The next few days passed pretty quickly while I stayed with my godparents. My father came home and visited a few times, mostly to shower, change clothes and check up on me. After three days both my parents came home with a baby carrier. Both my mother and father were extremely happy when they picked me up and took me home. The first thing my mother did was give me a long hug and kiss on the cheek. When I was released from the hug, my father picked me up and sat me down next to him on the couch. My mom picked up a baby out of the carrier and after she settled the baby in her arms she looked at me and said. "Theo sweetie, I would like you to meet your new little sister. Her name is Emily Mercer."

I looked down at the baby my mother held, and I couldn't help but smile. She was currently sleeping peacefully in my mother's arms. As I looked at her I noticed she looked a little different than me. The little bit of hair she had was the same reddish brown hair that my mother had. While I had dark black hair, kinda like my father. She also looked slightly like a mix of my parents, at least it seemed like it. She mostly looked like a baby.

I looked at both my parents as they smiled at me and I said, "You realize that she will probably be a lot more work to take care of than I was."

My father laughed a little at that and looked at my Mother and said, "I win."

My mother just let out a sigh as she gently rocked back and forth with my sister in her arms. She looked at me, then my father and said, "You know if she is a handful, you are the one who will have to take care of it most of the time. Especially if it's in the middle of the night."

My father just smiled at that and then my mother looked back at me and said. "Normally I wouldn't expect a child your age to help out, but you don't really act like a child. So you are going to be helping us to watch over your little sister. Can you do that for us, Theo?"

"Yes mother, I will do my best as an older brother."

After that it's family time for a while, then we do story time. They have been reading books they already read to me, so I can help read them also. We all take turns reading from the book to Emily. I think she enjoys it, at least it seems like it when she giggles/burbles at my father making all his weird noises. After story time, we are normally put to bed and my parents stay up for a while and spend time together.

I normally take this time to train myself more, mostly doing tree climbing on my crib bars. I can now crawl/climb with my arms and legs. If someone came into our room at night, they might think they are in a horror movie with me climbing on the walls and roof. It’s actually kinda funny when I do it. Another thing I have learned from this is to use my chakra to sense things around me. It is a very short distance for now, only a few inches from my body. But with practice and more chakra I am pretty sure I could sense anything around me from a very big distance.

I actually stumbled upon it by accident. Normally people who are sensors, sense chakra from other people. But since I am the only one who has chakra, I thought it would be useless. But it looks like it works with the way I will use . Since I will use universal energy for my sage mode, I can use my chakra to sense universal energy and since it is all around me I can sense things around me. It’s a little weird, but what happened is I was trying to crawl/climb on the wall with my chakra. I didn’t want to break the drywall so I was trying to stick to the dry wall and wall stud behind it. The issue is I had no idea where the wall stud would be.

It took a while, but by using my chakra and some different sensor skills I figured out a way to sense things from my chakra. It's still in the early stages and only works if I put a lot of concentration into it. But with practice and refinement I should be able to use this to help me out a lot in the future. I think once I figure out sage mode it will be even better. But that is for the future, right now it is horror movie baby time! I mean practicing chakra control while I climb on the roof.

Speaking of chakra, I have a lot of it now. I admit I am not using anything that is too heavy chakra wise. But it takes me using it with my different practices all day and at night to finally deplete it. I have been looking for different ways to deplete it easier, so far water type seems to be the safest thing I can use. The only issue is I would be making a mess with the water I create or control. I have thought about wind a few times, but the issue with that is most of the wind techniques are worse than the water ones. I do have an idea, use the jutsu. My issue is that it splits your chakra, between yourself and the clone and also takes a good bit of chakra to use. I have no idea if I even have enough to properly make one right now.

I know what you are thinking, why not the or ? Or even the ? Well I have tried, they don’t use enough chakra. The chakra amount is so small it wouldn’t be worth it with the time I have to train alone. Also I don’t want to wake up my little sister, so things that are quiet are the best option. It’s fine for now, the wall climbing helps to wear my body out from all the exercise it gets.

That is how my daily routine is for now. I can’t wait till I am older, then I can go play out in the backyard at Aunt May’s and practice earth jutsu. I already have a few in mind that will work great and no one should be able to notice I am doing them.
