Nobunaga Inuzuka
"AGAIN!"
A woman's voice roared from the small training field near the Inuzuka Compound. The mother of the young Nobunaga Inuzuka just wanted to see her son achieve a sense of perfection with his bestial side. She wanted to see him let loose and strike with all his might, let the beast inside him show him true power. She stared as the sounds of Nobunaga and Oichi using passing fang on a boulder in the very middle of the field. Bits of debris and dust assaulted the surronding area as the duo shredded through the sides of the boulder. It was a site to behold whenever an Inuzuka was able to show such prowess with the technique. Nobunaga and Oichi slid to stop, leaving a trail behind them. They sat down on the grass, heaving and huffing for air.
"One day you'll be the beast I wanted you to be." Iva snickered a bit at the delightful idea of her son raising the status of the Inuzuka. Nobunaga let himself fall back in the grass, red strands of hair spilling outward like a wildfire. "Mother, why aren't we critically acclaimed like the Hyuga or stand in history like the Uchiha? I understand we are rare outside of Konoha but why is the clan treated lowly compared to those two?" Iva looked at her son for a few short moments before turning her gaze to the sky, peering past the trees.
"Nobu, it would be easy to say that its because of their dojutsu. It would be easy to blame them. Unfortunately it was our fault and the loss of your ancestors. We stood as bastions at one point, protecting the very borders of the land of fire whilst the Senju and Uchiha fought. We took the brunt of an attack that wiped out a large portion of our numbers and causing us lose some of our most precious jutsu. The land was ruptured in the process and we thought the base was lost." Iva glanced back her son whose face showed a greater interest than normal.
"Where was it located?" Nobu's eyes met with his mother's and he could see the devious smile upon her face.
