Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ryuu's ears twitched at the sounds of another rustling amongst his newfound home. Arising from his seat, he made his way to the entrance of his room. The voice in side his head had returned, but it wasn't of much use, unfortunately. In his current state fighting would be pointless. His lack of food may have just made him paranoid for all he knew.

"Damn..." He muttered softly, his stomach being the only one to respond with a rough growl.

His head extended out past the corner, as his hand now rest on his scythe's trunk.
"Who finds the need to trespass in my home?" Ryuu asked in a fairly loud tone, set to carry its way through the house.

He twitched his ears once more, in an attempt to focus for any sounds. In time the vibrations had changed, though he was unfamiliar with using them as a form of tracking. To him, the change in vibration was merely a sign of someone's force of strength. He patiently awaited a response to his question.

"Are you trying to say that a man who claims a house his anywhere else isn't claiming a truth?" He scoffed off in an arrogant response.

Ryuu sank his head back and tried to think for a moment. Indeed the change he felt was a bit different than any before, it did not imply he was necessarily strong. The small beams of light that glinted the house was all he had to go off of aside from his gut feelings. This, unfortunately, wasn't very much.

"I'm asking you leave my house. Nicely." Ryuu glinted the end of his phrase with just enough to imply his thoughts.

((*smacks myself in the head* Sorry again. I was workinng on the front cover.. it took me a while and its not even that long. For the other guild I mean..))

Kaname gulped. 'If this Kai kid went too far.... it wouldn't be pretty.' He swore to himself. Kaname smirked to himself hoping that Nami caught that. He seemed to drag his feet as he walked pass them, wondering if they were smart enough to know to follow him. He'd know where Kurai was in his sleep. [STALKER!]
Itachi had come back from a pretty lengthy mission. (let's just say he was on one) "Sending me all the way to Konoha.." He muttered under his breath. Itachi wasn't saying was too hard or that he was too lazy but Itachi just had plenty on his mind already. He leaned against a nearby tree only to spot Kurai's dark blue hair, like Sasuke's, with traces of some orange left. Itachi sighed scratching the back of his head. His time was taken up with one of the most impossible people on Earth. Somehow, Itachi took a tip down memory lane, remembering Kurai yelling at Itachi, 'Ita-nii-san! Ice-cream~ Sasuke wants some too.' Itachi smiled, letting Sasuke on his back while Kurai clutched to his arm tightly.

((You just love the fights, don't you, Ion-san? Heheh, pronounced E-on. xD Long E. =D I like how it sounds, it makes me laugh randomly. ;3 I call you that now. =O Last three letters. . . =/ HELLO KURAI-CHAN. =o JACKIE-CHAN. ...>.> I dunno. =/ Front cover? =o Oh. I need to work on this one. @ . @ It sucks. Sorry for my absence as well... =[ Gaia seems to bore me more and more. =/ ))

Sasori had a bit of a dazed look on his face, until it seemed to magically form into an arrogant smirking pose. Finally, something to actually do. Such a change, such a badly needed miracle. The results at this moment, did not matter. The only point of it was: It was something to do. And it wasn't something retarded. "Oh my, we're going to fight in here?" He said, a sarcastic form of 'worry' dripping from his words. "Your beloved house you seem to care so much for?" During this time of dialogue, he was studying the shadow he found to be the man he was speaking with. Mostly his stance, his chakra, his weapon, all that stuff that may be boring and supposedly useless, but it's all you really have to go on. He brought out one of his puppet scrolls, keeping it at the cuff of his Akatsuki cloak, for when he needed to pull it out quickly. ^ - ^ How fun was this going to be?

"Hmph...I saw that. >l " Nami muttered, and slowly began following Kaname, and turned her head towards Kai. "You better not like...completely try to fight Kurai. Last time that happened, it didn't go well..." Her words got quieter and quieter, as if you-know-who was listening. Which she probably was. Knowing her, she'd probably be scoffing at Nami's words right about now...

'Well. Show's how much Nami knows, huh? Sure it was my fault, but... God, forget it. Like hell it's my role to try to help here. It's much easier causing problems like this. Not to mention funner. Heh, that's what I'm sticking to from now on. Until something else pops up that- - NO. God no. It'll turn out just as badly, or worse. Then again, I don't really see the problem here. So what if she forgot? She'll remember, and if she doesn't, screw it. Try to befriend her again if you care so much, Itachi.' As if she were speaking to him right at that moment, Kira has kept her thoughts almost on that same line for a while now. Doing so seems to help the mind rest a bit. But, she didn't really know that that was exactly what she was doing, : Trying to ease the pain. God knows how she'd react once she caught herself doing so. Anyways, she wondered through the base like a ghost. Literally through it. Her jutsu's do well when she really doesn't want to converse with anyone at that time. Come to think of it, her jutsu's weren't really even technically jutsu's. Just more like Hellish powers, that came directly from Hell, like bats. Ha ha! Like bat's out of Hell. That's an actual phrase... Tch, anyways, they'll probably come up later. =]

"Yeah yeah, god, yer so annoying. I know's what's ta do, Nami-chaaaaaaan~." Kai said playfully, whilst elbowing her side softly. "OK, Yuushin-dude, how do you know where she is? Or, well, you at least look like you know. >/ So which is it, buddeh boy?"

(( ^ - ^ Kai will bug the crap outta him. And I will laugh. "D I think Sasori is my favorite outta all the people I own. He definitely is. I dunno why, just because he can like change attitudes so fast, and he can still be kinda jokey all the time, but he can still be like demented whenever needed. xD And all the other stuffes about him. I just love him! > w < ))

((That too! =D ))

" >=/ Ok then. >=P " Kai didn't exactly know what kind of any answer that was, but yeah. Yuushin-dude didn't seem like much of a talkeh person. He just tell. Then again, not like there was much to confuse it with... Oh well. Either way, Kai was gonna eat something after all this shenanigans.

(Idk, I was just trying to spice things up... I Mean, Ryuu isn't that nice of a person, its just his character)

"Smart a**, I like that." Ryuu chimed in a devilish fashion.

Balancing his scythe between his fingers, he stood on edge just listening for a brief moment. From the way he had been acting, and from what Ryuu could see, he had a sense of where he was at. Though not perfect, it was a chance he'd take. Giving away his position wasn't a huge concern, the house was dark, there was no guarantee that he would notice his present placing anyway. Ryuu took a deep breath, closing his eyes for a brief moment as he tuned himself in with the energies. His eyes opened, and he exhaled slowly as his balance had been achieved. Standing straight up, off from his usual slouch, he focused on the door. The darkness that had consumed him was now more of a flame, though more for intimidating purposes, it gave him his sense of perfection.

His voice broke the silence with a ghastly, shrill whisper. "I'm glad you chose to accept this challenge. Truth is, I've been rather bored with this vile place." His lips cut and morbidly moved to resemble a smile of sorts. "If this house isn't mine, than it shall be your grave."

He paused for a second, allowing the home to enter its usual silence. It didn't matter what his answer was, it'd show him where he's currently standing, and that was more than enough information for him. Fingers releasing the scythe quickly shot the palm to take a better hold over it as he prepared himself for what he was about to do next. Shuriken from his open sleeve dropped into his hand and he held them nimbly between his fingers. Eyes of vibrant crimson, a mere slit between his glaring eyes.

(I Know. wink You aren't gonna die just yet, I have so many plans for you mwahahaha! Lol razz I'm sorry, I really like coming off as intimidating. It usually keeps people from fighting, but since you so graciously accept wink I think I'm bound to have quite some fun.)

Ryuu was becoming quite irritable now, the sheer lack of discipline that this punk showed was almost insulting. A soft breeze perforated from his aura of dark intensity, free flowing the adversity of energy. So versatile, yet so controlled, such is the factor that compliments life. His grin widening as he peered around, ready to shatter every last bit of ego this child thought he had. Placing the Shurikan in the pocket of his cloak, he cracked his fingers, breaking the silence; his hand now imbued as a claw. More than gracious with his offer to leave, it was time for him to have his fun. Silence was key, like the triad of balance, creeping his way across the floor that would creak with careless footing.

Positioning his scythe over his shoulder, he established his center of balance around it. Sliding his foot ever so silently into position, he positioned himself to somewhat mimic the southern Taoist preying mantis. A soft movement forward breached anything of solid mass twixt the two fighters. All that stood between them now was the shadows of the closed off, run down house. The mantis fore claw of his open hand shifted up, positioned at the central heart chakra. Signature of the scissor gave his hand a free flowing glisten of blue energy, vastly contrasting that of his natural. With all these factors in play, this brilliant mind of a self taught individual unclouded by modern views began to formulate his strategy. The energy that engulfed his hand shown brighter as he kept his focus, illuminating the once blind hallway. In a casual opposition, this was used for defense; unfortunately its attack attributes were quite a bit more powerful basing this strategy around counter attacks. Ryuu had trained for years before mastering it as a defensive stance, shortly before realizing its attacking potentials. The hand signifying the scissor changed to the spiritual sign of "Zhi", rod number four in the cycle of power. The chakra that flowed of blue light now changed to something horrific of crimson descent, greatly complimenting the darkness that he so proclaimed himself. The "Qi" he possessed now in his hand was enough to end this fight with the right movements, though he still kept his scythe on edge and ready should his plan backfire in any way.

Lifting his lead foot, he shifted himself forward, almost as though he were falling. As the momentum increased on his descent to the ground, his rear foothold shifted and redirected the force of him falling into force of him launching. The breeze came to an indefinite halt, as time seemed to cease its existence. Fore it was only a brief moment that he was actually airborne that seemed an eternity by steps. Ryuu tucked his hand up against his heart chakra, though never breaking sign nor focus, and kept his gaze indefinitely on his target. Now within attacking distance of his foe, his hand returned to the attack site of the mantis and prepared its unleash.

(I'm sorry if this doesn't make much sense, I'm kinda hung over from a party and am not quite sure.)
