I'm Good With Kids [Mission/priv] Finished

[Icarus]

As the inn rocked, with a groaning of the wood as it made a coherent yet minor shake with the rest of the area, broken boards slicing through the sand like ground as if they were daggers, it shook awake or off foot all its inhabitants. The last shakes and shivers of the inn subsided into a comfortable sway. Higan awoke, a single cream colored lid opened to reveal a facet of amber as he blinked away the last clutches of sleep. Warmth fleeting from his body as he rose with a fluid motion from his bed, the gentle heat of the two candles that hung on his wall gave off artificial solace beckoned at him not to leave the mild heat. Stretching his long arms, hardened muscles loosening and preparing for movement as he yawned, faded coral lips parting to take in air. He dropped his arms and from an oak chest procured a shirt and a hooded jacket, drawing first one then the other over his bare skin. He slowly zipped up the hoodie, a soft and thick, but reasonably sized article of clothing. He smoothed out his clothes, purging the wrinkles from his body and with an ivory hand he deftly tousled his hair as he slid a pair of gloves onto his hands, dyed and weather treated, they were an almost sentimental item to him judging by the amount of time he had spent wearing them, the knuckles and palms faded, re-stitched in many spots, he didn’t care how they looked to others. He made a few steps and placed his palm on his locked chest, procuring a key to open it up he withdrew his usual weapons, his kunai and his swords, and all the accessories that were commensurate with his usual inventory. He quickly with a practiced motion attached them to his clothes in designated areas then rose up and turned about face and placed his palm on the handle of the door, turning it. A cold air rushed in, biting stagnant air quickly permeating his clothes down to his skin and underneath into his bone.

Monotonous thumps sounded as he climbed down the stairs of the lower floor of the inn, a shock of brown hair rising to the surface of the boat, violently then gently shook by the wind. Amber gems followed by the rest of his figure soon rose above to the topside of the boat. He had seen two strangers already at their posts gawking, one with a mess of blonde hair and two sapphire eyes. He had neglected to interact with her out of a lax attitude, not out of an aggressive one, soon enough he would exchange a conversation with her, formally introduce himself and learn more about her as he tried to make heads or tails out of what was going on. As he finally reached the outside, he no longer had a need to query for information, the exact specifications of his mission in front of him, a young but reasonably tall kid with a bloodline, his appearing to be kage hebi. He made his way expertly to the steady ground outside of the inn and stared down his opponent. The ground grey and gruesome with what seemed to be husks of snakes and venom.

He watched the skin return to its original non stretched form with a sickening slap, and he watched at the same time a snake fly through the sky and dig into the side of inn with a rather fluid yet odd motion, snakes usually in this case would crumple up instead of having the density of steel. The source of the vicious serpents was one nubile adolescent, one who jeered at the crowd boasting of his power and that nobody could challenge him, that as soon as he finished wrecking this inn that he felt very “icky” about he would then go to challenge and usurp the kage. Now higan couldn’t let this happen, he knew the kage was in fact quite a busy lady, and on top of that she signed off on his paychecks, which was a good thing in his book. He stepped from the crowd and bellowed at the boy Now come on, you are a suna nin, You should be above this foolish activity. If you really feel the need to see yourself to the kage, then I will be her personal guard, to go through her you must face me. Right here, right now.

Prepare yourself boy. He drew his sword, a long nodachi, polished to perfect edge. The boy immediately threw his hands towards him and higan backed up in anticipation, he already knew the function of the kage hebi, they were able to make their limbs malleable. But no matter how far he backed up, with increasing speed this time it did not seem enough, now the hands were upon him curled in fists and they formed a parabola as it seemed he had put force into them making a sort of whip attack. The shockwave ripped through his hands as the boy disarmed his sword, to his disadvantage though. The sword was merely a tool and one that would actually save the boy some pain as his real weapons were his hands. He took up a simple stance his body sideways, his feet at shoulder length, both hands with palms facing outward one at his side and the other in front. One arm came whipping at him, this time with a kunai in hand, aiming for his obliques. He engaged the opaque world as his eyes lost their amber drops and became sickly white, the world going into monochrome as he gained clarity through site. He slapped swiftly with his retracted hand, his jyuuken causing the hand inner damage, making it freeze up and drop the kunai. His other hand gripped the arm, he wasn’t getting it back.

He was certain that the boy was scared, if he could feel pain in this state of unnatural stretching was feeling the effects of his jyuuken decimating the inside of his arm slowly. Just then as the kid howled in pain, his arm went limp obviously some sort of complication occurred due to the stretching as a jyuuken to the wrist wouldn’t make the entire arm limp. The kid then released from his mouth a single snake which blazed at him, he cursed as his hands were slightly full. He prepared himself, as he gathered his bodily chakra to withstand the assault. He gritted his teeth and thrust his hand forward, the fingers together and the palm tight. He expected to be able to bat the snake away from his body lest his corpse become riddled with a large hole not unlike the defaced front of the inn that had been so generous as to give him a ninja discount for sleeping there, and had even fed him a hearty meal on the house. He just couldn’t let such nice people be bullied.

The snake came in close, emerald skin and eyes lacking color, simply soulless. Then in the blink of an eye the snake opened its jaws, something he did not know it could do though in a sense it did indeed make sense, he assumed they were projectiles and not animals. He forced his bodily chakra through his palm and winced as he despite his efforts still felt teeth knick his skin if for just a moment. The snake was sent flying away into the ground, which he proceeded to stomp. Its lucid white guts not coming out but instead turning into white smoke and leaving behind a lack of snake as it disappeared. His skin felt hot where he had been bit and soon he even felt a tad woozy, he reeled and fell down not due to the poison but for a new trap he was going to set down for the troublesome kid. It appeared that long range was not an option, he would simply have to conquer his opponent with his combat experience and by utilizing the high pride of his haughty opponent. He close his eyes and breathed out, focusing only on the footsteps of his opponent. He counted ten meters as the foot steps started, nine meters and he relaxed his brow, eight meters and he sought to make his breath shallow. And so on until he felt even the footsteps and heard the gloat of the child very close to him.

You see now, how I am anointed as the greatest ninja by god!? The child barked out as he drew his kunai and now saught to higan’s surprise take his kill. He questioned in the few seconds before his retaliation. He felt the kiss of a slightly warm kunai, yet the blade felt infinitely cold as it was only a pound of force or two from slitting his neck. He immediately opened his eyes blazing with spirit and thrust his hand forward into the boy’s chest, exerting extreme force of chakra in a strong hijutsu of his clan, Hakke Negi! it was the first time he had used the move so he guessed that he would at least christen the move by saying it out loud while using it. He felt the chakra press into the boy and with his byakugan actually saw the wondrous process take place in his chest. A few cuts were already evident as the chakra system was attacked. Immediately he felt the boy tense up and he smiled, he had given him a dose of paralysis, but not with secretive snakes with an upfront blast of chakra. He just now had to finish the job.

He formed a jutsu sign as it looked as if his opponent had a painful case of tetanus. He let go of the sign and his body turned black as his empowering armor graced his skin. He brought up his hand and delivered a sounding blow with increased strength into the solar plexus of his opponent, making him crumple over and become unconscious. He hefted him on his shoulder and then made his way swiftly to the nearest police center to tell them to forward yet again his payment to his apartment so that he could get an antidote from the hospital.
