[IC] Naruto - Legend of the Bijuu's - Part I - OOC

[Durnehviir]

~Saiyaka~

"Oh that is funny~" Saiyaka even chuckled, "Are you offended, Little Kazekage?" Saiyaka moved a hand in front of her face as a bubbly giggle ran between her lips, "To go as far to even state my place? Silly. I'm a ninja. In this world you can expect that there will be no secrets. It is my responsibility to know everything that I can figure out. My place is everywhere. I wouldn't be who I was if I were worried about boundaries and personal space. Besides, he's not all that bad looking. Don't know how he'd be in the sac though. Seems a litle on the quick side, don't you think?" Saiyaka inquired, loving this topic now that it was displayed that Yume wasn't the most comfortable with it. In fact! She was more interested in this topic than talking about the war and the republic and even Daisuke. Which was something. "Whether Kazekage or some Genin twirp, I hold no restriction and have no place other than what I reserve for myself."

"Say, Little Wind, have you ever...?" Pausing for dramatic effect, Saiyaka motioned her hands a second after to imply one hand slowly coming to the other, "You know? I mean, he doesn't seem all that bad of a first time. He'd be delicate and patient. Can't say that for many these day, especially ninja," Waving a hand away at a distant thought, or a few actually, she moved a step closer to Saiyaka, "Especially with how he looks at you. So hungry. Like looking at a little lamb dressed in gold and rubies. Can't figure out which is better, the taste or the feel of the package in your hands...Which brings up the next topic-" Saiyaka began, about to jump into something so highly inappropriate that she was really going to test just how pure and noble the Kazekage was.

But, as what happens when Saiyaka is talking faster than she is paying attention to if anyone is even listening, another certain word caught her attention. Daisuke. The little limelight of her world. He was her precious gem that she'd one day toss out to the sea, "I don't agree. He shouldn't have been sent at all. But it is your decision. I am more than capable of rebuking an assault if, by some way, Konoha manages to get their hands on the tailed beasts. However, should that happen, the boy's death would be your responsibility." There as almost a cold uncaring tone about that. As if it didn't matter. If he died he died. Ordinarily, Saiyaka's affection for her student, as commonly sadistic as it was, was typically genuine. However, in a situation like this where things were beyond her individual control...She seemed to appear as if she let go. Those weren't her true feelings. Absolutely not. She truly did care for Daisuke. But, what could she do under these circumstances? Her hands were tied by wire and fire.

Saiyaka's cool detachment melted away just as swiftly though.
"Well, enough of that," She'd say, smiling brightly. She could really jump from one extreme to the next on a dime. Saiyaka would rush in and, if she hadn't been stopped or evaded, she'd embrace the Kazakge, Yume, in a loving, tight hug, "Oh. The Little Wind wants my company! I am so flattered I could just pop!" She exclaimed, and, coincidentally, her well endowed bosom was pressingly against the smaller framed Yume probably to the point of smothering. If she popped...It would be disastrous for Yume.

"Don't worry! I'll keep the Little Wind company. I'll tell you stories on how to seduce men and then strangle them using only your legs!" That wouldn't be the only story she'd tell. Oh no. She would be smothering Yume with more than her breasts, that was for sure. She would ensure that it would be a long, arduous journey full of Saiyaka's complaints, stories, exaggerations and opinion. Saiyaka was everything but reserve, even towards strangers. It would a an S-Ranked mission just surviving the trek, especially considering that, at this moment...

Saiyaka was draining chakra from Yume at an alarming rate.
Never let your guard down. Never.

[Aeris]

Daisuke wasn't actually walking. He was sitting in a cross legged position... over a little platform made entirely of sand, which floated at the same spped as Haven walked. His hands were resting over his knees, something akin to a meditating position, but he wasn't meditating. He was just... well, he enjoyed being in that position, that's all. He didn't even turn to look at his teammate when a question was asked. Which had to do with their actual mission. Haven asked what they were supposed to do, and really, Daisuke had no absolute idea. In fact, he wasn't even sure of how they'd get in there... wouldn't it be horribly suspicious that a bunch of genin-level shinobi suddenly decided to pay Konohagakure a visit? Well, no matter, that wasn't up to him.

"Honestly I don't know. We're supposed to gather information, but how, when and from who isn't something you should be asking me." With a careless shrug, the blond turned his head slightly to look at his teammate. "You know, we can die there." That seemed as if it came from nowhere, but Daisuke spoke in a stern tone. "We're dwelving into the unknown, we can be killed on sight if someone recognizes us as... not konoha-nin. This can be a trap, have you ever thought that the Republic might not be as good as it seems and Konoha is the only village which knows the truth?" And apparently Daisuke decided that it was a good time to talk about conspirations. But just as quickly as he started the subject, he ended it.

"Anyway, yes! Tea sounds pretty good, thank you." He smiled widely.

[Tuujaimaa]

“If I have taught you anything at all over the years, the one thing I would like you to keep at the forefront of your mind is that you should always be prepared for every eventuality. My failure to prepare cost an entire city their lives - if we fail again, more than that could hang in the balance. To answer your question: Yes. You should be prepared, though I hope I will not have to call upon your preparations. We should first see how the summit goes… And I expect that we may well have to make use of your talents to uncover the true nature of Konohagakure’s secrecy if it does not become apparent otherwise.” Akaritori replied, and though it would perhaps seem brash or harsh, she and Touzoku had gained a rapport over their time spent working together, and the language and mannerisms that the two exhibited were quite well known to one another. It may have looked offensive from a different perspective, but between the two it was a perfectly normal course of conversation.

“If you could make your preparations to leave, I would be most appreciative. We will leave at first light.” Akaritori nodded, bowing to Touzoku as she turned to re-enter her office proper. Yui would prepare her overnight kit and ceremonial robes, and Touzoku would likely already have had measures in place to facilitate a smooth transition from her ordinary life to, essentially, a political and diplomatic one. Years of militaristic training and routine had left Akaritori a beacon of discipline, and first light was not an issue for her to awaken at - though she expected it would be a small shock to Touzoku’s system. She planned to let Touzoku sleep on the journey when time allowed for it, however - a privilege that was afforded only to her closest operative. The gesture might not seem like much to an outsider, but it was another piece of the complex puzzle that was their relationship.

[Masaki Haruna]

Jumping from tree to tree, Serena the Mizukage with Hayasa doing so, she made the landscape into an ice ramp so instead of jumping it would be ice skating in a skate board manner, Serena never fails to amaze and style anything in her way, "Kouhai-kun, is the inside always warmer than the outside? The ice that shines wherever it goes has it's meaning my dear, whenever you are with me, there is only two letters you need to remember and that is IQ." Serena's motherly figure is on the spot with her metamorphs as always, sh always leaves deep philosophy of wisdoms from life which will eventually help in future with it's meaning. "Will you lend me your fear? Will you accept my love?." Those questions were like a testament and has a deeper meaning, the Mizukage has always been a master of poetry.

Rain
Nagisa

"So, Oppai Sensei, why brought me here this early?." Nagisa looked pissed.

[Expllo]

Haven nodded as he handed the flask up to Daisuke, and even as he ended the subject Haven continued to talk on it, "Yeah, I know we can die here...But death is something I think about every time we go on a mission, and every time I get into a fight. No matter if it's an obvious win, or weak opponent, I know something could happen and if I'm not careful then....Well, death. As long as it's quick...Which is why I think no different about this mission, and will think no different about any mission. No matter the rank, death is always a possibility. But with this one, we have to play it smart. Smarter than usual," he stretched his arms once more before speaking again, "The Republic being bad? Yeah, I've thought about it. Also thought about this being a trap, but...I don't know. I mean, remember those bodies Konoha sent back? That's the only thing we have to convince us Konoha is bad, or up to something. But what people don't realize is that we have no idea why they were sent except for the excuses the Republic gives us. We really have no idea why they were sent, or what they did even. Which is the only reason I'm fine with going along with the mission, we're only sent here to spy, and I want to know what's going on exactly even if that means going up to the Hokage directly. But I'm sure that'll blow our cover and not end well for me, with the Hokage or Republic," Haven said. And just at that moment a thought came into his mind, a stupid one at that, which was find a way to knock out a Jounin or Chuunin and torture them in a secret area. Make them tell, or give them the information they knew. Felt a bit too....Sadistic for him. But he knew a time would come where he'd have to, but not now. He didn't bring that up, instead he just spoke about something different, "But why we're here we should come up with some type of plan, maybe? Obviously they'll know something is going on with the Republic if random Genin just start showing up...So before we get inside Konoha, maybe find a couple Genin or Chuunin? Steal their outfits and pose as Leaf Shinobi. Oh, and you probably shouldn't use your sand techniques unless needed, that'll blow the cover. Man, I'dunno, just wished a bit more detail could have been provided for us."

Haven ran a hand through his hair then cracked his neck again, this conspiracy talk was beginning to make him think more. What exactly were they going to do? What would happen if they were caught? What were the Republic and Konoha's gain? Why was he so hungry? Even the thought of his father came up. Did his father know something about the Republic? Was that why he left Sunagakure? His fist clenched just then, maybe that was it. Maybe his father had left for a reason instead of just randomly leaving and branded as a traitor? He sighed and closed his eyes, unclenching his fist. It didn't really matter at the moment, what did matter was how they were going to get into Konoha. He doubted that they could just stroll right in, he wondered how the other village Genin were fairing. Probably way better than the Sand three, he opened his eyes and kept looking forward. Maybe Tamiko would have an idea, he shrugged and looked up at the sky. Why couldn't things just be simple?

[thanatosDefiant]

Masahiro had been practicing his techniques in his room inside his parent's apartment with varying results each time he attempted to use a jutsu. He never really thought of himself as a very good ninja, especially when compared to some of the other ninjas that had been promoted to Genin rank, he thought that it was truly miraculous that he had managed to pass, even if it had been by just a hairsbreadth. Honestly, he was unsure of how he did it and believed that he had gotten by on sheer dumb luck. Some of the students his age had mastered incredibly difficult techniques, yet he just barely passed with the most basic skills, he had always wondered if they had made a mistake in letting him pass, but what's done is done. Though this was not important at the moment as he still had to keep himself as sharp as he could be. He had finished creating an intangible clone of himself, which he thought was quite good when compared to some of his other, less than successful attempts and as such was quite satisfied with his own work. He quickly dispelled the clone and decided to leave his home for the time being and take a walk around Konohagakure. Who knew? Perhaps something eventful would happen while he was taking his stroll.

He took his apartment key and left his home through the door locking it behind him, placing the key in his left pocket. Both of his parents have been working at the family restaurant for quite some time and he had gotten permission from his mother to practice his abilities, his father begrudgingly allowing it as well. He hadn't really approved of Masahiro becoming a ninja, as a matter of fact, he absolutely loathed the idea and instead, wants him to give up his career to work in the family business. However, his mother on the other hand had always believed that it was the best path for him to take. Most likely because she wanted, at the very least one successful ninja in the family, after she herself was unable to do very well during her, admittedly, short lived time as a ninja.

Masahiro soon found himself on the streets of Konoha with a small bit of money in his pockets, that he was hoping to spend on some ninja gear if at all possible. Hopefully, he, at the very least, would be able to make use of them at some point.

[Insomnia]

Yume

It was obvious that Saiyaka was enjoying this conversation far more than Yume was. Painfully obvious. Yume didn't call her here to talk about her personal life. She claimed to have no boundaries or limits when it came to pushing others for information, and that was just what made her her. It was a petty excuse, but she could deal with it later. Yume wanted to move on badly.

"S-Saiyaka-san!" Yume exclaimed, amazed at how far the tokujo dared to overstep where she lay. "I-I would never!" Just the thought of Tsubasa and her disgusted the Kazekage and Yume had half a mind to shove a few senbon in that inappropriate mouth of hers. She tried to block out all the painful words that spilled out of the older woman, desperate not to ruin her fatherly image of Tsubasa. The two were practically related. She was lucky that Saiyaka had stopped herself from continuing onto the next topic, Yume really didn't care to know - nor did she want to. She carried on babbling away about nonsensical things that bore no relevance to the conversation but it was better than talking about other certain things. Anything was, really.

There was a clear change in attitude when Daisuke's name was mentioned, it was apparent. "Saiyaka-san, you do not understand. What happens to Daisuke is out of my control. It was not my decision to send him to Konoha!" Yume was becoming impatient. Saiyaka didn't seem to understand that the Kages had no say in the matter. Disallowing the jinchūriki to be sent to Konoha was practically rebelling against the Republic. The General had more political power than the Kages. They were merely second-hand. But stopping the one-tailed vessel was a suicide mission. Sending him to the Leaf was a suicide mission too, but that was inevitable.

Yume couldn't breathe. The tokujo's overwhelming chest was suffocating her. Saiyaka had the jump on the Kazekage, altering personalities as if the previous conversation had never taken place. It did Yume's head in. She felt her legs going numb, strangely, but she was determined to get out of the situation. The younger kunoichi felt a tinge of regret as she struggled to squeeze out of Saiyaka's tight grip, feeling fainter and weaker by the second. She pushed at the woman's shoulders, twisting and turning until at last she broke free. Yume stood on the opposite side of her office, panting and resettling her hat. She brushed off her clothes and straightened up, acknowledging the fact that this would be one long-ass journey.

Aiko

Aiko felt silly, standing at the door, waiting for Ria. When the Uchiha swung the door open and grabbed her hand without warning, Aiko nearly swung her fist straight into the jōnin's face. She was wearing more appropriate clothes today but was just as random and hasty as usual. Red camellia flowers floating around daintily in the sky, presumably a variation of Ria's teleportation ninjutsu. Finally, she was going to get some work done.

[LaXnyd]

I swear, this is the eleventh time I've seen that street vendor!

Having taking more than a few wrong turns, Yuuto wound up going even deeper and deeper into Konoha than he intended. Eventually working his way through the city, he wound up realizing that in the general direction he was going the buildings were getting less and less dense. That was probably a good sign; it must mean he was getting out of the core and towards the gate. He supposed he wouldn't be having breakfast before leaving konoha after all, but he could make do.

Unfortunately for him, he had gone in the complete opposite direction - and wound up right in the training fields. There, he saw several ninjas - including the man who he had a sinking feeling was the almighty Hokage himself. He immediately turned to go back, but then he overheard their talk of training. His warrior's curiosity completely overriding any survival/escape instinct he may have had, he instead turned and leaned against a tree, watching with curiosity as to what these ninjas could do.

They were quite different from samurai, after all.

[LillyDove]

Okani

Okani glared at the girl, what the hell did she mean why did she bring her here?! "I brought you here to train, this is hard core now and unless you want a worthless life of being some spoiled brat then I suggest that you stop complaining and get a kunai out!" Okani snapped at Nagi, ticked off at the fact that she was complaining about her training. "Now yesterday, I told you to stand there" she said and pointed to the exact spot. "You didn't follow directions! Following directions is important in today's world! Also, you failed yesterday's game, I told you that you had or run in the five seconds before my clone or myself tagged you, you took six seconds" Okani said.

"In the ninja world, you would be dead now. Learn to react quicker, do you have a kunai ready? Your going to have five seconds to counter or block my attacks, so prepare yourself" Okani said and was already doing her hand signs. "Wind Style: Flower Scattering Dance!" Okani called out, a giant twister appeared with flower petals and went directly at Nagi. Righter of the ninjutsu, she charged at Nagi with her kunai and attacked her, hoping she would be smart enough to counter or block.

[Masaki Haruna]

Ria

Finally reaching the training grounds, as planned the benefits of watching Kota's training will motivate Aiko's training, Intel is very important in battle when time comes that these two genin would have to team up or fight someday, knowing each other's abilities is the first step. "About earlier, I healed your knuckles, don't let the slight bruise slow you down. The first step of your training will be taijutsu but first, we will do some stretching, splitting is a factor in your training." Ria performed a full perfect split in front of Aiko, "Take it slowly, your body must be flexible if you truly want to become one with the wind." Ria remembered reading Okani's databook profile, wind ninjutsu as its finest which is also Ria's second element, Ria thought of raising Aiko into an awesome kunoichi.

Nagisa

Nagi swing from wire to wire and used her teleportation jutsu to dodge Okani and warp continuously, setting up wires by throwing it randomly in different places. "I bet your boobs slow you down, Oppai Sensei." Nagi being the usual rude brat she is, still mocks Okani, little does she know she was letting her guard down.

[Hirothelegend]

Oda Uchiha
Oda smiled to see all the visiters come. "This is great! If they plan to attack soon I ca show them my potential..." He thought. He the looked at Sharaiyu. "So it drains chakra a lot... have you tried to pick up object with it? Chakra is like a muscle, the more you use and work on it the stronger it gets! So why not literally lift weights with those limbs!" he said to Sharaiyu then at Kota. "You want to fight? Heh why not! I sense massive chakra on you boy!" He said getting to his stance. He then flicks his had like Rock Lee did to taunt his opponents. "Come one! Show you moves..." He said playfully. While he waited he looked at Ria. "Ready to see a Uchiha get trained like he should have!" He says to Ria.

[LaXnyd]

Yuuto

Yuuto found the Hokage's speech on chakra being like a muscle rather interesting - it didn't deviate much from his own philosophy, that Chakra was like a form of inner strength that had to be cultivated, but surprisingly Ria's statement was the one that caught his attention the most; the one about becoming with the wind. He was a wind user himself, what with his Kusanagi having an affinity with the wind, but he had never thought about flexibility - when he had trained, he had always went for precision and swiftness.

Another thing he was observing was the people themselves as well as their lessons. From what he saw, the Hokage... didn't seem like the warmonger that people made him out to be. Perhaps it was exaggeration? Propaganda? I would have to wait and see.

[LillyDove]

Okani grinned as the girl reacted well to her attacks, all in five seconds and Nagi would jabs passed it all together but she let her guard down, granting an opening. "Water Style: Snake Mouth!" Okani called out as the water appeared as giant snake and swallowed up Nagi. Okani wasn't done with her lesson yet so and quickly got behind her and performed the correct hand signs for the Genjutsu. "Flower Style: Rose Dusting!" Okani said as black Rose petals started to fall and stick to Nagi, her skin would start to burn soon. This was a particularly hard Genjutsu, it was very believable.

[Yog Sothoth]

Maiko nodded after hearing Kai's words, he was ready to go through with the mission. he was impressed by the look of Konoha, it was so much different from Amegakure in many ways. but he had to remind himself that he was here on a special mission and needed to find what Konoha has planned and why they are so hostile to the republic. Maiko saw a group chunin come by from patrol and he became nervous, but he gave a sigh of relief when he saw that they were drunk. still he decided it would be better to move from them as quick as possible and did so. he didn't really know where he was going and didn't have a map, but he would figure it out, he had a good sense of direction. while he taking in his surroundings, he accidentally bumped right into Masahiro and was surprised at what had happened.

he should have watched where he was going carefully, and said to the boy, "I'm really sorry, this is my first time being in Konoha, it really is a wonderful place."

he hoped that sounded more like a tourist than a ninja sent to spy on the village by the republic.

[BKburke]

Sharaiyu listened to Oda's speech and noticed his attention was more toward Kota. Sharaiyu turned to see the other sensei teaching someone else. "Well I guess y'all are busy." He muttered to himself. Sharaiyu turned around and walked off. "Guess I'll just go train somewhere else where I won't bother y'all." He muttered again under his breathe. Sharaiyu didn't walk to far but the trees ment he was out of sight. "Who am I kidding. I can't even use nature releases."

Marashi smirked as he looked down upon Sharaiyu. "Is there a problem with that? You shouldn't be out here alone you know." Sharaiyu jumped from the surprise. Marashi was still wearing the leaf jounin outfit so Sharaiyu thought Marashi belonged to the village. Sharaiyu looked up at Marashi. "I only know medical jutsu. I'm basically the person who has to stay in the back to heal the injured ones. I guess that is why the others are focused on those that actually do nature releases." Marashi chuckled abit. "There is nothing wrong with being the person in the back. That person is the one who watches, learns, and adapts to the situation at hand. You may be in the back, but you have all that time to observe the enemy and seek a way to elimanate them. Being in the back is no problem. You will know one day, everyone will know one day." Marashi sat down and so did Sharaiyu. Marashi smirked. "So tell me about yourself, who is training you, how they seem fit to train you, and what do you believe you are capable of?"

[thanatosDefiant]

As Masahiro had been walking he suddenly bumped into someone and heard the words "I'm really sorry, this is my first time being in Konoha, it really is a wonderful place." he didn't really think much of it, the person must have been some sort of tourist. "Ah, it's alright don't worry about it." he says calmly, he was never really the type to get irritated at slight hindrances such as this one. He decides to strike up a quick chat with Maiko, after all, he was a tad bit curious as to where he had come from, and decided that he was not in much of a rush anyhow. "So, where did you live before coming to Konoha?" he asks inquisitively. He was very agog to find out where Maiko used to live in, it wasn't everyday he had the chance to strike up an actual conversation with a foreigner.

[Dystopia]

So, Shira enjoyed ramen. Ramen... wasn't really something Ryou liked. Whenever he had the opportunity to get food outside of his parents' cooking, sushi was always his go-to food. "Your releases~?" Crap. This is why Ryou needed Kii. Kii would always speak up and deny Shira whenever he thought something was too dangerous. He was a pretty paranoid guy but a smart one. Ryou, on the other hand, had trouble denying people. This was especially a problem when it came to friends and family. Like he was sure this was a super bad idea and if Kii found out, that was if they weren't spotted and captured, he'd... he'd... Ryou wasn't actually sure was Kii would do. Maybe something like the silent treatment?

"If you're sure, I'll keep watch~" Because, if they were spotted, they could totally say that Shira had just learned a few tricks from their hometown. That what she was doing was pretty much the extent of her abilities. Ryou was decent at talking himself and others out of situations. He just wasn't too sure if that would work on a Konoha ninja.

[Yog Sothoth]

Maiko had to make up a fake story, he didn't want to tell Masahiro that he was from Amegakure otherwise that would make him suspicious. he quickly thought up a lie and said "I am from the Land of Fangs, my parents are merchants who sell things to many different nations, and this was the first time they let me come with them on their journey to Konoha. they let me go off and explore the village while they sold their stuff, and now I am a bit lost, so do you know where i can find a map of the village?"

he hoped that it was a convincing story and also it would get him a map of Konoha which would make his mission a little easier.

[Chev]

Kai watched as they began to take their own routes to try and investigate. But Kai knew exactly where to go.

Be careful Kai. I know what your thinking and what your planning is risky. Just keep an eye out. This would have been risky enough but if they find out who you are then we're going to be tortured and killed. And I have no desire to be sealed inside someone else.

Don't worry. I'll be careful. Kai thought back quietly as he headed for the center of town. All he needed to do was keep from being noticeable. Which meant he had to keep himself from running into anyone who could identify him. He also had no plans on going near any of the Hyuga clan. With their abilities they would most likely be able to identify him with no trouble at all.

[Insomnia]

Aiko

"The splits?!" Aiko yelled at Ria, who was on the floor in a perfect split. "What the hell do the splits have to do with being 'one with the wind'?" She exaggerated on 'one with the wind', shaking her head and hands in a frantic motion. Ria was really crazy. I little too crazy. But if she wanted to get some training done, Aiko had no choice but to oblige. Or at least try to. The redhead was slightly flexible, but no where near as flexible as her sensei. She nearly got to the ground, but not quite. It was good enough. Aiko tried imagining a scenario in which she needed to use the splits to fend off an attacker but failed. It was silly. She looked silly. Ria looked silly. At least they looked silly together. Aiko rolled onto her back and sat up, awaiting her next instructions from the inane Uchiha.
