a life for pirates [Q] Aug 11, 2012 14:33:15 GMT -8

Post by Naitome on Aug 11, 2012 14:33:15 GMT -8

Akuharu sat, contemplating his own thoughts, and watched as his earlier waitress exited the kitchen bringing a far off table a group of drinks. The men she served were crude, brutes, slapping her behind and giving her a knowing wink while she virtually squealed with joy, the exaggerated swish of her hips as she departed clear to anyone with eyes. Tch.

In the following seconds, a commotion would build outside, the sounds of men jeering raucously outside. Even within the relatively noisy bar, voices could still be heard, though whatever words they spoke were lost in the spiraling miasma of other things.

Then suddenly, fire. Without warning it attacked the double-doors of the small tavern, and in the panic of the moment, many within did not even take refuge, merely screamed in panic and rose from their tables in terror. Akuharu hopped the bar counter itself, rushing near the back, trying to find the supply and employee entrance/exits that would, being a functioning bar, have to be there as a crowd of others joined him in the fray. Of course, even if, unlike every other bar in known history, this specific tavern had only one method of entering and exiting, it would matter little, as the wood composing the buildings entirety would be nothing to force his way through, even for a normal man, a snapping kick followed by the heavily placed weight of his own trained body with the added assistance of others trying to save their own lives would create a simple escape route through a rear facing wall where none previously might have existed, as Akuharu was the first to greet the night air, yelling above the fright of the crowd as he watched the fire slowly consume the inside of the bar.

THIS WAY! HURRY!

The flames spread from the front of the bar and on inwards, but those who'd not merely cowered beneath their tables in order to avoid the destruction had successfully made their way out of the bar behind Akuharu. Barely a second after the last panicked foot breached the back entrance, the roof collapsed, and Akuharu's vision was obstructed by burning wood and smoke. A voice flared out, cutting through the stunned silence

"Where are you hiding, Jukkai? Hide all you want, but I will find you and get back what you've stolen from me."

Akuharu did not waste time worrying about who this Jukkai was. Instead, he made his way around the outskirts of the building, mimicking the startled reactions of its patrons and the many other villagers watching, blending in to the amassed crowd and slowly coming back to the front entrance, careful not to be seen by whoever perpetrated such senseless violence.

a life for pirates [Q] Aug 11, 2012 12:54:05 GMT -8

Moonlight, and all beneath it like dust catching the stray reflections of light too pure to only appear in darkness. But still; a young man moved beneath it unhindered. His path has been set by others, those whose whims and fancy direct his actions, but his passage through the long night is not without some reminder of his own purpose. He has left behind the gates of his village for more than personal gain, for more than the desire to fulfill the command of his military superior. He is searching for some small piece of himself in the great wide mystery that is the rest of the world.

He does not run, nor move with any particular haste, his motions are patient and deliberate. He stalks the outer edge of the shore, staring at the flotilla of half-broken vessels that make their berth where the water divides clumps of metal into townships. His feet spread no echoes as crag and split earth accept each modest step; the hood of his heavy cloak is down, his hair tied in a lengthy knot behind him. He could easily be any other traveler.

But he is not. He is a shinobi, a killer from a village hidden by mist and myth. As his eyes lead him through wooden pillars and monuments of stone and rope, through open alleys facing the sea and rough-looking vagrants seeking to assault the lost or those too new to the area to discard their feelings of fear, a light less significant than the moon beckons.

Through the old wooden double-doors of a ragged tavern, he enters, though no one seems to care. He is, purposely, unnoticeable. Another isolated collection of tense twitched foot-falls that suggest he is to be ignored, even if whatever is hidden within might prove otherwise. He is difficult to pay attention to. Hidden in himself. Looking for a drink and rest. He speaks to the bartender as if they are old friends, finally pulling his hood up over his head, and paying no attention to the others crowding the establishment with hushed talk and skewed glances.

The usual.

The large man behind the bar, like a chip of slate chiseled into an irreverent overbearing swagger, smirks in his direction, and fills a dirty glass with house beer, as Akuharu places a few ryo on the counter. One of the nearby waitresses, a young woman no doubt near his own age, would saunter up behind him, tapping him on the shoulder, and asking in the delicate voice of one trained to sound more innocent than they are

"Can I get you something to eat?"

No. Thank you.

"Is there...anything else that you might want instead? Company, perhaps?

She looked at Akuharu with a slight knowing smile, as he gestured ambiguously towards the open seat next to him, and she took it.

"I can't sit here for long, i'm still working. But you looked like you might not want to be alone. I'll be getting off soon..."

She leaned is as she spoke, her hand traveling carefully to his knee, then rising up slowly, whispering in his ear as if to share a secret.

"Hopefully sooner than I originally planned..."

Perhaps....

...I will take something to eat after all. Beef ramen, with honey, and crushed red pepper. Don't forget the onions. Thank you again.

She stood in a huff, visibly upset, but merely bowed before running back towards the kitchen as the bartender gave a good-natured laugh and Akuharu sipped his drink, swirling the ice in the glass and thinking absently of the dream he'd been having the past few days. A dream of having captured the moon itself, of holding its image in a mirror and sewing it into his own heart.

His tormentors are merciless; he can think of nothing but those he was supposed to meet and in displaced anger shouts within the confines of his own mind where ARE they? though he knows it is not their fault. He has allowed himself to be caught in this horrible game, and until they arrive, he has no choice to endure. His feet leave a trail of blood stained footprints in the dirt as he runs, as fast as his legs will carry him, and ducks beneath the stone ruins of recently demolished homes ducking girders and steel beams and death itself. The creature follows him still, does not even possess true eyes only a single massive horn that sways in the air towards whatever direction he chooses, as if it knows where he will go next. It is not hunting him like a mindless beast, no, it is playing with him. Reveling in the chase. There is intellect beneath the swollen monstrosity of the Swallow's Nest.

They must HURRY.

Though you spoke with each other, you did not come to a concrete decision on how to continue, and as such, certain events create the opportunity's for themselves. The old man approaching you comes easily to within 10 meters of your suspiciously assembled group, and raises his hand in greeting far before you reach the nearby tavern. His odd markings are in plain view as he stares you each up and down, before speaking with a voice that carries surprising energy for his age.

Heya! How's it goin'? Travelers eh?

He says politely, scratching his back absentmindedly and staring, perhaps a bit too closely, at the strange eyes of Haru. If the boy were to examine the man with his strange eyes, he would find nothing out of the ordinary, no chakra to be worried about, no hidden spirits, merely an old man engaging others in conversation. He does not appear to be one who knows even the first thing about ninjutsu techniques of any kind, though he does seem oddly strong, possessed of a physical energy that betrays his seniority.

Proceed.

The Folly Of Man.
And the first of what could be final mistakes, could spell your demise.

The instant your fingers moved together to weave their seals, four of the five men would react in a blur of movement, their feet carrying them forward to arrive in a well practiced formation, two to either side, two behind you, their blades swerving through the air to cut through the flesh of your body, timed to land their strikes just as you drew in the deep breath necessary to complete your technique. They moved as if unencumbered by the weight of their armor, blades poised to cut just below your chest, the center of your stomach, and through the toned flesh below each side of your hips. The angle of their simultaneous swinging attacks would ensure that any direction you moved, would only cause your soft flesh to intercept their blades that much faster.

The guard who had not moved would leap high into the air, and as your technique had been aimed to intercept his sword arm, he would clear the angle of your presumed assault effortlessly should you somehow continue with it, launching his sword, blade first, towards your heart. The ten meters it would need to fly to reach you would be covered relatively quickly, though the appearance and attacks of the other four would make adjusting your aim to strike his moving form a fatal mistake. If you'd attempt to deal with your four immediate attackers, whose movements cut off your own ability to escape as surely as they would cut you down, you'd simply be struck through the center of your body with the thrown blade of the leaping guard.

In the distance, the sounds of Ysotloth edge ever closer. It is almost upon you all.

Proceed.

Mirror Moon [KITTY][INV] Aug 9, 2012 7:09:52 GMT -8

Post by Naitome on Aug 9, 2012 7:09:52 GMT -8

As they slept, bodies curling about each other and seeking warmth ;D in the ignorance of fatigue, something troublesome flared within the young man's chakra. His dreams were not satisfied to remain within his own mind; they branched out, connecting with the only other living mind in their vicinity, and the nightmare images of Akuharu's thoughts were transferred and shared with Tsuki. They dreamed as one, their heartbeats perfectly in sync, each patient rhythm causing them to subconsciously pull the other closer...

Akuharu is a very small boy, barely 10, and his Sharingan is a new curiosity among those who share the great amalgamate ship of The Six Paths of The Moon. There are none aboard who are anywhere close to his age, and as they catch the larger waves leading towards new land, he is watched with contempt and jealousy while their captain looks upon the child with praise. Akuharu has been given several knives, and rotating on a spinning target plastered to the bottom half of the mast, are the severed hands and removed eyes of slaves who did not survive the ships earlier journeys. The young Uchiha has been given a collection of small hunting knives, and as the target spins into a blur, several of the others have tried throwing their own blades across the 30 meter distance separating them from it, but failed miserably. The Six Paths of The Moon has explained that this is a game. If Akuharu can successfully strike an eye or a hand with his own blades, he will be allowed to eat two meals next week, instead of one.

Though the others have all failed miserably, The Six Paths of The Moon has also wagered that only Akuharu can make the targets without error. If Akuharu succeeds, the others will go without eating, and the small boy shudders at the thought of how severely he will be hurt if that happens.

There is a War going on in the mainlands, Akuharu. The captain has told him several times, You are lucky to be here with your crew. Men cause war, men perpetrate them and feed them, you are only a boy, but that cannot last forever. You are very lucky indeed.

Akuharu does not feel lucky. He is tired and hungry, hurt from a blossoming of a hundred scars in places too varied to seem anything other than a single massive wound.

His eyes bloom into blood red, and the tiny black comma spinning within twirls even faster than the target, as he see's its motions slowed down, until he doubts it is still moving at all. He raises his tiny hand, carrying a blade between the knuckles of each finger, and releases them, staring at his Captain and speaking before the blades even reach the target.

Can I eat one of my meals now? SHINK - SHINK - SHINK The blades enter the exact center of three rot covered eyes plastered to the target, driven through so deep that its stopped spinning altogether, and the jerky halted momentum throws the hands tacked lazily to its middle to fall off, landing in a neat pile at the base of the mast. As the detached hands hit the ground, each seems to be pointed at a different crew mate; specifically those who accepted the wager of their own meals.

The Six Paths of The Moon laughs. I think he's ready boys! Little Akuharu has proven that he is no longer just a boy! Did you see? These were the hands and eyes of his former friends, those two little runts he used to run around and chatter with, but no more! I thought he'd refuse to kill them when we gave the order, but he proved his loyalty and has gone even further, mutilating their corpses...he has the instinct of only the most ruthless conqueror! You are a man, Akuharu, of course you can eat now! You'll need your strength!

We're heading to your first War! And Akuharu nods, and takes a scrap of bread from the captain's outstretched hands, and returns to the dark cramped chamber beneath the bow of the ship where he sleeps among rats and bad memories, and he thinks of the friends he has lost, now for the second time, and his chakra flares up like fire without shedding a single tear.

He woke. Felt strength return and the awkward sensation of arms wrapped around his body, his mid-section pressed into Tsuki's body, tightly, her breath slowly sounding against his chest as she slept and his own memory of the dream faded. He untangled their legs, careful not to wake her, and stood looking around them for some sign of what happened.

Their clothes had been torn to shreds, and as he stared at his own bandaged body, he realized that Tsuki had used her own flowing yellow robe to prevent him from bleeding into the night. They were expensive looking, and he felt responsible, though also slightly surprised that a woman of her seeming stature would bother to try helping him at all. The large torn cloak he'd worn the day before was folded, and he used it cover the parts of her body that had been exposed from creating his makeshift bandages, as he started a small fire, and waited for her to wake up.

He would have to pay for new garments, and food, when she came to. That was all. Then he'd no longer have to stay with her, and remind her of the tragedies of her past. Shopping and breakfast. Then departure.

He looked back at her again, then stared into the flame.

He woke.

The last fading images of sleep fractured in his minds eye, and the shards that remained fought hard to form a coherent memory, but failed. He experienced only a profound feeling of lost, the sensation that something vital to who he was had been left incomplete.

He was in Mizu No Kuni, near the simple collection of temporary homes that housed whatever traveling shinobi were willing to pay for lodging, within the heart of a cliffside cave overlooking the coast. The fire he'd started the night before had been extinguished early into his frantic sleep, and he scattered the ashes over the edge of the high stone, sighing to himself, reflecting.

He had a long journey ahead; the mission he'd been given by the Mizukage could not be put off forever, and in order to secure his future, he would have to gain power, by whatever means necessary. But power to what end? he wondered, gathering his things and beginning the slow walk back towards the village. A hammer could be used to break or to build, and in making that decision, he'd define the purpose of more than just the next few days, but the entirety of his life.

He did not notice how the shadows seem to follow him as he walked, how everything grew colder, regardless of how high the sun climbed into the sky. By nightfall, he'd cleared a good portion of the mainlands, and watched with intrigue as the larger cities gave way to smaller, simpler towns.

When he came to a small inn, and entered inside, paying for a modest room and eating, before retreating gracefully into sleep, he had no idea that he'd been followed.

It had tracked him across the flat-lands and the curved pass leading towards the coast. It was not by smell or sight but some other sense, some insidious advancement of biology that defied simple explanation and nonetheless cowed his resolve, made running forever an exhausting and impractical solution. It rose into the sky in a serpentine curl of armored exo-skeleton screeching as the mountains shook frighteningly beneath its charge, and he hid in the dark of trees to catch his breath. It seemed that it could not find him so easily during the day, and he moved towards the horizon, finding solace in a warmth that still would not save him from its assault. It was ravenous and pursued him with renewed vigor each night, charged by years of starvation. It was evil and he knew this and it did not matter. He was supposed to be meeting people, allies...those whom he could pass on the vital information it had nearly cost him his life to acquire.

He would not be able to last much longer. They needed to get to him soon.

The gates close behind you, and for what is surely not the first time in your brief lives, the jagged chassis of rock that is Kaminari No Kuni rises up into clouds so close that the rain merely reaches down instead of falling. There are several paths leading away from the village entrance, deeper into a mottled rock tomb cradling the remains of countless others who've failed to do what you are prepared to. The sun is high, the way forward plagued with its own dangers, and once you've entered the Swallow's Nest, the time for talking will be over.

Use that time now. The men and women assembled before you are your comrades, and regardless of your individual paranoia, relying on them will be the only sure way to succeed.

For the moment, your options are simple; there are two nearby locations where information pertaining to entering the village of Sutori can easily be found. The first is a simple tavern, only a few hundred meters from your current location and designed so that those traveling to and from the village can have a quick place to eat and drink in relative peace. Some of its shadier patrons are well known for their skill with a certain criminal element, and though it would not be hard to press one of these men for information regarding how to safely enter your heavily guarded destination, it might take some time to deal with the consequences of unwarranted hostility.

The second, is the only other person any of you can see from where you currently stand; a tiny but fast moving older gentleman between the mesa and plains up ahead. While there is normally no reason to believe that a stranger would know the whereabouts or infiltration patterns of a village you three would plan on visiting, something about his appearance does catch your eye.

As he walks towards you, you can see a tiny bird tattoo on his exposed right shoulder, and a tiny nest on the left. The choice of what to do, of course, is yours.

The Agony.
The fog recedes.

What you see, is horrifying, even for one who has experienced the travesty of war.

There are...great chained collars of rusted metal, at least 30 in total number, strapped around what are largely only the corpses of dogs. Only a few still live, and they are malnourished and afraid, whining as a group of six men fumble with the iron restraints, disconnecting the collars of the living from the dead. Between the poor creatures, there is enough blood to stain not only their matted fur, but the ground below with a dark dried crust. The dispersal of the fog causes the assembled men to look up at you, but their oddly shaped heavy armor shrugs off the worst of your Ranton attack as if nothing had happened at all. Dealing with lightning and storms is nothing new for them, natives of the land and charged with the task of...

..well...

...that's for you to find out.

Kill her. You heard the boss. No witnesses.

Five of the men stand, while the one giving the orders continues trying to re-fit the collars to the remaining dogs. They begin a slow and patient movement towards you, withdrawing simple short blades, their eyes never leaving your frame.

Proceed.

Hai.

Akuharu replied, his mind already on to the next task at hand. Neither ANBU nor successfully completing the Jounin Selections would be easy to accomplish, but with the file clutched beneath his arms, he turned and left the Mizukage's office, determined to complete what lay ahead. Descending the tall stairs, he took his leave, and walked into the insidious fog of the Hidden Mist, plotting and planning. Ready for the next level.

Post by Naitome on Aug 7, 2012 18:25:26 GMT -8

SPOILER: Click to show

"The Laughing Sage"

Gender:Male
Age:Approximately 500 Years
Height:50 Meters
Weight:5 Tons
Physical Appearance:Though typically the 'Sage' of the family has aged to a degree where their physical body is more diminutive than their brethren, Gengo inherited the position of Sage from his father, Kotoba, and for lack of a better term absorbed the elders essence after an untimely death. As such, Gengo is a truly massive creature, the eldest sibling, and considered to have no physical equal in any world. His long black coat and piercing eyes are offset by the constant grin he bears in and out of combat, and it is for that reason, and his inclination to be easily amused, that he was given the title 'The Laughing Sage'. He wears simple samurai-like armor and unlike the rest of his family, is fully capable of and seems to prefer standing upright, giving him an altogether more humanoid appearance.

Racial Breaker: Claws | Fangs The claws and fangs of the Meiyoarushijin Fox Family are beyond razor sharp, delivering added piercing/cutting/slashing type damage equivalent to the family members rank to their already considerable physical attacks.

Racial Breaker: Nine-Tail Narration The summoned creature is able to use each of its nine powerful prehensile tails to deal blunt/concussive type damage in order to attack or to defend from assault, equivalent in strength to the family members rank.

[/b] Sage
Rank: SS
Kind: Grounder

[/sup], Ninjutsu/Genjutsu²[/ul]
[/ul][/ul]
[/justify][/font][/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote]
[/spoiler]

SPOILER: Click to show

'X' Joutou! ('X' Jump)
Rank: C⁵⁰
Type: Supplementary / Taijutsu
Range: Self
Chakra: Mid
Special: Can only be performed during or after the apex of the user's initial jump. Can execute up to 1 mid-air jump before hitting the ground.
Description: Once in the air, only the most advanced Taijutsu users can manage to use their brute strength to actually jump against the air using friction, effectively jumping again before hitting the ground.
Domain: Universal Taijutsu.

Sayonara Rorru! (Do a Barrel Roll!)
Rank: C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C⁵⁰⁰
Type: Offensive / Taijutsu
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Chakra: Mid
Special: Barrel roll burst extends 5 meters, and can be used one per thread, plus one more each time retrained.
Description: As its name implies, the user will suddenly enter barrel-roll form, gripping their shins and ankles as they tuck them in, forming a human ball. In this form, chakra is unconsciously powering the roll, making their movement just as fast and graceful as if they were running. Useful for evasion, or when needing to look silly.
Domain: Universal Taijutsu.

Kaiten Kakatou Otoshi (Spinning Heel Drop)
Rank: C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C⁵⁰⁰
Type: Offensive / Taijutsu
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Chakra: Mid
Special: If kick connects with head, the victim will most likely be stunned for half turn. Normally the user spins once before descending, but each time retrained, an additional spin is added, which adds more power and thus more stunning capabilities - equal to 1/2 a turn of stun added each time. Each retrain stacks another Mid consumption to this technique.
Description: A very basic but effective taijutsu attack, the Kaiten involves the user's leg in a reverse downward kick. After launching themselves into the air and begin to somersault, the user gains momentum within the chosen striking limb and come spinning down, laying their heels into the target's shoulders and head.
Domain: Universal Taijutsu.

Hayabusa Otoshi (Peregrine Falcon Drop)
Rank: C⁵⁰
Type: Offensive / Taijutsu
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Chakra: Mid
Special: Most effective when used on extremely hard surfaces.
Description: A very deadly and efficient taijutsu attack. While at an elevated position, the user will grab their opponent from behind. Firmly locking themselves to their back, the user will then lock their ankles onto the opponent's neck in order to get their body rigid. Finally, on the descent, the user proceeds to drive and plant the victim head first into the ground. Essentially a belly to back pile-driver, the move can provide a great concussion to his opponent's head.
Domain: Universal Taijutsu.

Shishi Rendan (Lion Combo)
Rank: C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C⁵⁰⁰
Type: Offensive / Taijutsu
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Chakra: Mid
Special: Due to the nature of the combination, once the first hit connects, the rest usually do. Damage stacks per successful hit. Up to 2 hits can be made per combo, plus 1 more each time retrained.
Description: An effective aerial attack, the user first begins to maneuver to their opponent in a vulnerable aerial position. While shadowing them, the user will attempt to strike them from a vulnerable angle. First, they will strike as a feint in order to draw their target's attention and defense to one area. Then, a true strike is made towards the most undefended area, proceeded by several more until the user violently begins knocking them down and towards the ground. As the enemy falls back to the earth, the user will deftly rotate their body around to deliver a full force kick to their chest.
Domain: Universal Taijutsu.

Hien (Flying Swallow)
Rank: B, B, B, B, B, B⁶⁰⁰
Type: Offensive / Taijutsu
Range: See Special!
Chakra: High
Special: Extends the blade of any bladed weapon through chakra by fifty percent (50%) of the blade's total length the first time learned; each time retrained, ten percent (10%) of the blade's total length is added.
Description: By unconsciously feeding their chakra into any bladed weapon, the user will manage to extend the length of the weapon by providing an extra extension of visible chakra. This creation will yield an extremely sharp edge that functions like the normal blade itself. By seeing only the user's bladed weaponry, the opponent may miss the Hien and misjudge how far they need to move to avoid an incoming strike. As a result, even if they manage to avoid the metal portion of the blade, the chakra portion may cut into them as well.
Domain: Universal Taijutsu.

Senshi 1 Mirrioun! (Million Man Stab)
Rank: B, B, B, B, B, B, B, B, B⁹⁰⁰
Type: Offensive / Taijutsu
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Chakra: High
Special: Delivers up to 2 stabs per use, plus 1 more each time retrained. Attacks are delivered at blinding speed, and regardless of amount, take up only a single technique/action.
Description: By unconsciously feeding their chakra into any bladed weapon, the user will rush forward, unleashing their weapon in a stabbing motion with the tip to their target. The chakra unleashes in order to increases appendage speed, and with much training, the user can find themselves delivering many strikes in a single instance.
Domain: Universal Taijutsu.

This pressure point then explodes in a single instant, causing a massive blast range. Because the technique is taijutsu and not made of chakra, it can not be absorbed by ninja skilled in chakra absorption.

He could not focus on her fight with the creature; though worried, he had no choice but to hope she could deliver the beast close enough for the technique to work. His eyes stared blankly ahead, the tomoe shifting against his will and tracking her process as what appeared to be...steam flowed from her calling and flared with chakra rivaling any suiton technique he'd ever seen before. This must be the strange nature I had trouble reading...some combination of fire and water. But he could not afford for his thoughts to betray him. Spiraling away from the chakra core of his heart, physical and spiritual energy collided; his tenketsu burst open....he could smell the stench of the kaijuu nearing closer.

It had been knocked off course and rocketed backwards, entering within ten meters of the Kirigakure Chuunin as pain, visceral and real and pouring through every inch of his being radiated off of his wounds and throughout his upper body but he persisted. Holding up a single hand, he held the technique in reserve, until the creature turned its massive head, its jaws widening to form into a grin...

Now is your chance, Akuharu!

There you ar---

Naitome,
^{("Nightmare")}

And there was light.

Crimson red flame, visible to anything with eyes, able to be felt as ripples of force screaming their way into the world, an explosion of energy raging outwards in every direction, with Akuharu's body as the focal point. It looked as if he'd detonated completely, and as the flame roared into the creatures body, a wave impacting it in it's entirety, there was a sick-making howl of agony birthed where before there had stood a monster. As the Kaijuu was struck, each layer of its skin was flayed away, disintegrating into a cloud of ash that scattered in every direction and burned through its flesh with harsh light that trembled the forest itself. The very ground shook as if caught in the grip of a god. Where before there was corrupted and off-color flesh seizing up over hardened muscle and bone, there was now only exposed red meat, vibrating with an aftershock that fed off of Akuharu's wild chakra and ignited over and over again. With a single, terror-filled cry, the beast disappeared into a cloud of black smoke, its voice echoing through tree and sky.

The surrounding natural expanse was untouched. Pristine. Each tree and flower and blade of grass was gracefully unharmed...but Hogroth was no more. There was not even the faintest trail of it's foul aroma leaving the earth.

As the chakra died out around him, its purpose served, Akuharu looked in Tsuki's direction and smiled. She's alright. He took a step forward and

the world BROKE--

His Sharingan flared back into the solid black of his natural eyes, and he grunted in too much pain to properly scream. His breath caught in his throat and the black poison dripping from his torn flesh sparked with what looked like gray lightning, jolting throughout his entire body and forcing him to collapse straight forward, impacting the ground with a solid thud. A splattering of blood, deep red but tinted with far darker shades flushed itself away from his skin, and the wounds seemed to dig themselves deeper into his skin under some unknown influence. He opened his mouth to howl...but no sound came out and the odd bio-electric feedback of the chakra poison caused him to writhe as if tortured. He raised a single hand...his vision blurred...still somehow searching for the infuriating woman he'd just met...

...and then his body fell absolutely still.

The remainder of the black poison seemed to collect into a single point, before branching out, forming what appeared to be a small insectile creature which moved mandibles made of...something horrifying...before a scattering of pincered footsteps carried it into the forest.

Akuharu was still breathing, but barely.

Best of all, due to its flowing essence, the water clone is capable of using a hefty amount of the original user's suiton-based techniques either for defensive means or offensive.
Domain: Suiton.

Mizurappa (Violent Water Wave)
Rank: C, C, C, C²⁰⁰
Type: Offensive.
Range: 0 - 10 meters.
Handseals: Yes.
Chakra: Mid.
Special: Though stream is thin, it is nonetheless strong and fast (equivalent to the user's dominion rank), and can produce a knock-back effect should a victim be caught; knock-back is equal to one meter, plus one more each time retrained, meaning damage is stacked as well; however, after every fourth retraining, chakra consumption will go up by one.
Description: Mizurappa is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing Suiton. After forming the needed handseals, the user will expel a strong jet of water at their opponent from their mouths. This stream moves frighteningly fast, and carried enough force to knock over even strong boulders.
Domain: Suiton.

Teppoudama (Bullet)
Rank: C, C, C, C²⁰⁰
Type: Offensive.
Range: 0 - 15 meters.
Handseals: Yes.
Chakra: Mid.
Special: Bullets are fired from the mouth, all at once in the form of straight lined fashion. Speed of the bullets is equivalent to the user's Suiton Ryuuken.

Description: A simple yet effective suiton technique, after forming the necessary hand seals, the user manifests bullet sized water projectiles in their mouth, which can then spit at their opponent at fast speeds for a quick attack. As the user’s knowledge of the this technique increases, so does the amount of bullets they can fire off.
Domain: Suiton.

Suitenhoufutsu (Sky and Water Convergence)
Rank: B¹⁰⁰
Type: Offensive.
Range: 0 - 20 meters.
Handseals: Yes.
Chakra: High.
Special: Only one person can be trapped at a time. However, every time this jutsu is learned again, the user gains the ability to imprison one extra person with an additional prison. After every third retraining, chakra consumption will go up by one. Water comes forth from the ground right below the user and moves fast, without warning. If target is running across a surface of water, the prison moves twice as fast. Same effects as 'Water Prison' apply.
Description: Suitenhoufutsu is a suiton ninjutsu technique which causes water to rise from the ground and surround the target, like Water Prison, yet without requiring the user to keep it steady by keeping hand contact. After the user does a string of hand seals, they summon the water, and can then use this water to drown his target, keep them imprisoned, or even torture.
Dmain: Suiton.

Mizukiri no Yaiba (Sword of Draining)
Rank: B,B,B ³⁰⁰
Type: Offensive.
Range: -
Handseals: Yes.
Chakra: Mid to cast and sustain.
Special: Sword can cut, slash and pierce through all barriers/attacks equal in rank to their maximum 'Suiton Ryuuken' rank. Lasts as long as the user is willing to put chakra into it. Each time retrained, extra 'B' ranked damage is added onto the sword. However, after every third retraining, chakra consumption will go up by one.
Description: Mizukiri no Yaiba is a ninjutsu technique that allows the caster to utilize water to create a razor sharp sword. The sword itself spans around three to five feet and can be formed into a saber style blade, or something heavier/thicker. Additionally, it can be wielded in the normal fashion, allowing the ninja to cut and stab like a normal blade, as well as in conjunction with any Martial Arts that rely on the saber/short/long sword.
Domain: Suiton. Suiton Ryuuken 'B'.

Suiryuudan no Jutsu (Water Dragon Projectile Technique)
Rank: B, B, B³⁰⁰
Type: Offensive.
Range: 0 - 20 meters
Handseals: Yes.
Chakra: High.
Special: Due to the nature of the attack, the dragon can strike available aerial targets as well, as long as they are within their 'Suiton Ryuuken' range. If the dragon’s head is severed from its body, the lost appendage reverts to its natural water state and the remaining severed stub attached to the water source can re-grow once more. Only focusing a strong attack 'A' ranked or higher on the head will defeat it for sure. Up to one dragon can be made per use, plus one more each time retrained. However, after every third retraining, chakra consumption will go up by one.
Description: Suiryuudan no Jutsu is one of Suiton’s strongest ninjutsu, mainly because of its impact force and its ability to attack enemies in the air and on the ground. The ninja does a long string of hand seals which then causes a column of water in the form of a dragon to rise from the water and then strike at their target. Upon striking its target and ensnaring it in its aquatic maw, the dragon explodes with great force, flooding all nearby and providing an ample amount of water for more Suiton techs, should any enemies remain standing.

Type: Offensive.
Range: 0 - 10 meters.
Handseals: Yes.
Chakra: x2 High to cast, Mid to sustain.
Special: Sphere exists as long as the user is willing to put chakra into it. From there, one can summon whips of water that can shoot out and attack or defend the user, extending up to a maximum length of thirty feet. Tentacle/whip is no more than a meter thick, and can alter its path mid-flight due to its flexible frame.
Description: Suiryuuben is a ninjutsu technique utilizing Suiton which will allow the user to generate a whirling sphere of water capable of both defending from attacks and carrying out its own strikes. After forming the necessary handseals, a large sphere of water forms above the user’s head. This sphere can then emit whips of water, razor sharp at the tips, which can seek out and impale their assigned targets. The whips move slightly faster than the user’s current build allows them to, and can swat away incoming attacks, reform if their limbs are cut off, and impale anyone that comes near.
Domain: Suiton.

Mizu no Tatsumaki (Tornado of Water)
Rank: S³⁰⁰
Type: 0 - 50 meters.
Range: See special!
Handseals: Yes.
Chakra: x2 High, and High to sustain.
Special: Tornado can be controlled to remain anywhere within their 'Suiton Ryuuken' range, and is in itself half the size of the total dominion range at the top, and 1/5th of it at the bottom. The water twister can move at impressive speeds (Suiton Ryuuken speed). User is defended from single ‘S' ranked attacks and lower, and can even absorb enemy Suiton attacks to keep their shield on longer. Vortex can last as long as the user is willing to keep it going. The user cannot perform any other jutsu while controlling the tornado. Requires a single handseal and eye contact to be held at all times when moving the tornado.
Description: Mizu no Tatsumaki is a Ninjutsu technique that utilizes a nearby water source to create a rapidly moving spinning water vortex around the caster.

The power of the vortex is enough to knock an opponent unconscious, break bones and cause internal damage, should they be sucked in!
Domain: Suiton.

Masteries:

3/3 Masteries Used.

Shinranbanshou Douka no Jutsu (Assimilate All Creation Technique)
Rank: S ³⁰⁰
Type: Supplementary.

Chakra: x2 High, Mid to sustain.
Special: Can take on properties of nature if touched for a whole turn. Assimilation lasts 1 turn, plus 1 more each time retrained.
Description: Shinranbanshou Douka no Jutsu is a ninjutsu technique that allows the ninja to use their surroundings as a tool for battles. With this technique, the user will form the needed hand seal and then touch a nearby tangible object to take on its properties. For example, if they touched nearby stone, their body will become hard as a rock in whatever desired location. This technique also appears to give the user the ability to break their body down into smaller pieces of whatever element they touch and reform himself at will, even after having been blown to bits.
Domain: Universal Ninjutsu.

Hien (Flying Swallow)
Rank: B¹⁰⁰
Type: Offensive / Taijutsu
Range: See Special!
Chakra: High
Special: Extends the blade of any bladed weapon through chakra by fifty percent (50%) of the blade's total length the first time learned; each time retrained, ten percent (10%) of the blade's total length is added.
Description: By unconsciously feeding their chakra into any bladed weapon, the user will manage to extend the length of the weapon by providing an extra extension of visible chakra. This creation will yield an extremely sharp edge that functions like the normal blade itself. By seeing only the user's bladed weaponry, the opponent may miss the Hien and misjudge how far they need to move to avoid an incoming strike. As a result, even if they manage to avoid the metal portion of the blade, the chakra portion may cut into them as well.
Domain: Universal Taijutsu.

Shougekishou (Demolishing Rising Palm Thrust)
Rank: B¹⁰⁰
Type: Offensive / Taijutsu
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Chakra: High
Special: Knock-back range equals 5 meters, plus 1 more each time retrained.
Description: By unconsciously feeding their chakra into their palms, the user will quickly rush forward, driving the charged appendage forward and into their opponent. The result is devastating, with all the accumulated power of the palm being unloaded onto the user's victim. Finally, with all the chakra released, the opponent's body is knocked back several feet, left to rag-doll and wither.
Domain: Universal Taijutsu.

Post by Naitome on Aug 7, 2012 8:59:26 GMT -8

It is my responsibility to fight this creature. This is my fault for ending my Kagura technique. Had I not of been so careless, we could have better prepared ourselves.

Akuharu barely heard her, Nameless dragging a path through the creatures flesh that healed over the wounds near instantly after, ducking beneath lurching physical assaults that would most likely kill him if they'd connected. His movements were erratic, but forceful, the fighting style of The Six Paths of The Moon, as his eyes allowed him to predict the creatures baser movements, and cut away at tendons and arteries, rendering its massive limbs inert long enough to counter, fist and blade moving as one.

The only way I could inflict damage is if you run far away, quickly. My jutsu will harm you as well as the beast. Unless you have something else in mind?

The beast thrust a clawed hand towards his gut, split Akuharu in half, his pupils taking on a second tomoe dragged from the blackness itself, his blood spilling, then reversing direction, dragged back into his body, the claw removing itself as the prediction became knowledge, and the beast truly moved in real time. Akuharu shifted his body to the left, crouching, a fast curve of his Nodachi slicing clean through one of the beasts legs, setting it off balance, and before it could heal back, Akuharu drove his palm into its center, pushing it away, and rising to slash it in half a second after. Each rolling clump of mass was thrown back a few meters, as Akuharu backed up to where Tsuki stood in a fluttering of steps it would be difficult for anyone to trace.

He looked at her incredulously, registered what she'd said, and replied, as he stared at the entirety of her body, watching the chakra flow present within.

No. I can see you have....Suiton...and Katon chakra...and....something else, some advanced transformation I've never seen before, but that won't be enough. Even cutting it in half is only temporary, it will just heal back, and no elemental chakra is enough to stop it. Only raw chakra can send it back.

It's name is Hogroth, it's their advanced guard. If they sent him, more won't bother coming. I can see your chakra, you won't be able to kill it.

I thought I told you to run. He thought angrily, but he did not see fear in her eyes, and it was strangely comforting that she was willing to take responsibility for the beasts presence. As each half of the beast, 30 meters from their current position, crawled towards its severed half and a sick crunch of bone and wet flesh melded slowly back together, Akuharu looked into Tsuki's eyes, then growled with pain, falling to one knee.

You'll have to...engage it directly, alone, but only for a while. Find some way to get it to come within 10 meters of my body, but buy me enough time to gather the necessary chakra to kill it. I can't really move while I do this, or I'd be able to help. Once it's within 10 meters of me, you can't be, or you'll die once the technique is complete.

It felt like his chakra network was on fire, the black liquid seeping from his wounds dripped onto the ground, pooling with his blood, and forcing another growl of pain from his lips.

Don't let the claws touch you. They're poisoned. They make it impossible for a normal shinobi to use chakra at all. It's almost healed. Hold it off for as long as you can, then bring it towards me. Go. Now.

He stood, shakily, the pain almost unbearable, then steeled his resolve and clapped his hands together, tuning out the rest of the world. The chakra within his body burned, but gathered anyway, flooding throughout his skin.

It would take a few precious moments for him to gather the energy he needed. Hopefully, Tsuki could contend with the beast for that time.

Mizukage Tower. Aug 7, 2012 8:22:41 GMT -8

Post by Naitome on Aug 7, 2012 8:22:41 GMT -8

Throughout the surrounding busyness of the lobby, a new tension emerged, followed by the loud clang of a metal door swung wide. A man entered, easily a foot taller than Akuharu, and oddly colored; he looked more a native of the Kaze No Kuni deserts than the Land of Water, and while his appearance seemed strange and garish to the newly appointed Chuunin, it was evident from the placating tone of those observing his intrusion, that he was someone considered very important within the village.

A woman pointed towards Akuharu, whispered brief words, and the man approached him speaking quickly and without bothering with an introduction.

Apologies. I'd completely forgotten about our meeting - I went on a run around the country. Had to clear my mind about some things. But please, follow me up to my office.

His office? And it clicked suddenly. This man is the Mizukage.

Hai.

Akuharu offered simply, following in the man's shadow as he ascended the nearby stairs that led into a large room that seemed more a place to hone ones skills than to discuss the high-minded effluvia of politics. The door closed behind him, and the Mizukage explained to him what he'd need.

The Kirigakure chuunin listened; his eyes darting easily around the room, noting the lack of visible bodyguards, the equipment that could be used for any number of things no normally sized man would be able to lift, the careless position of towels draped over nearly every surface suggesting their frequent use. His eyes narrowed as he heard the phrase "Legendary Seven Swords", the Mizukage grinning at him awkwardly, and Akuharu's normal look of solemn apathy did not change in the slightest.

When asked if he had any question, he spoke up.

I have several, though neither of us likely have the time for them to be answered. What i will do instead, is make a request;

Those who might already own or protect these swords will no doubt be powerful; and as they have remained largely hidden for some time, it is unlikely that as you plot to collect them all, their guardians would simultaneously seek to suddenly use them. That being said, there is probably some amount of time before, at my current skill level, I am even able to locate one of these swords.

As you no doubt are already aware, prior to these Chuunin Exams, I had only been a shinobi for a grand total of one month, and as successful as my performance during the Chuunin's may have been; it will not be enough to contend with those who might possess such legendary power.

He stared into the Mizukage's eyes, and for the first time, seemed something other than bored as he continued.

I request that, before I begin 'collecting', I undergo the necessary training and trials to become a Jounin - ANBU of Kirigakure No Sato. If I cannot pass those trials first, then surely I will be unable to collect The Seven Legendary Swords, and as logic would dictate, they aren't going anywhere anytime soon. It would also make more sense to give others the chance to collect them first from whatever ancient ruins they are hidden within, and thus change my task from one of endless searching, to simple tracking and assassination...something which becoming ANBU, and a Jounin, would allow me to easily accomplish.

Mizukage Tower. Aug 6, 2012 11:32:14 GMT -8

Post by Naitome on Aug 6, 2012 11:32:14 GMT -8

enter.

It had been a difficult place to locate.

Though the tallest building within the Hidden Mist Village, all pathways leading to the Tower seemed to corkscrew uncontrollably away from any discernible entrance. The awkward hush filling in the vacancies of nearby buildings allowed the cracking of worn foundation to echo out like footprints that left the eerie impression of being followed, and with his cloak tucked tightly against his body, Akuharu tread a dizzying path around corners of recently reinforced steel, trying to find his way. By the time he'd realized he'd been walking in circles, the space between two oddly adjacent alley's had become his only means of continuing on, and he walked sideways through their center for an hour with a huff of frustration before coming at last to a large door. Looking up, he saw a black spire, crowded in by mist and congested with bizarre architecture stolen from a thousand different places. He knocked against the heavy steel door, and was allowed inside.

There were only a few others within the Tower itself, the door leading to an open lobby where several busy men seemed consumed with work. Some carried papers, others large covered packages shaped like swords or coffins or what were only ambiguously ill defined clumps of black cloth; some cleaned or took notes chattering amongst themselves between the flickering of porcelain masks. Though there was a small waiting area off to the right side, other shinobi from the village were scarce, and it seemed to the new Chuunin that rumors of the Mizukage's isolation were closer to truth than fiction.

He walked about the lobby, unsure of what to do or who to speak to. He'd been called personally by the Mizukage, a man he'd never met or seen, and had no true understanding of exactly what he might be wanted for.

He could only wander the wide open space, hoping someone might help, and also trying to stay out of the way.
