Hidden Leaf: Deep in the Forest of Outer East Edge of Village
✂⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯  xxxThe time had come for Noemi to practice her clan techniques off and on her own. She stands from her tree stump and slips her pencil into the coiled binding of her notebook. She clutches the notebook in her hands and walks pass the tree where Vade continued to sit. He seemed to be staring at the instructor, but wasn’t listening. His eyes fall on the girl and then he’s staring at the teacher again. Finding an area distant from the class but still in range of her sight, Noemi begins her training. She sweeps her arms out to her sides from her center. Her left leg moves forward along the ground as she bends her knees. It isn’t long before her stance alters faintly to resemble the stance of someone about to perform her clan’s Heavenly Spin technique. Her arms aren’t aligned perfectly to match how they should normally be in, about an inch higher in the back and lower in the front. But she assumed the stance called for perfect height levels for her arms and instead aligned them like that. Her senses focus on only the sounds of those nearby and the rest on her immediate surroundings. Chakra flows around her body, coating her entire form from her center outward.
Her fingertips seemed to glow much more than the rest of her body and increase in brightness as she digs her heels into the ground. With a kick off, she begins spinning and focusing her chakra around her and towards her fingertips. She spins and spins, trying to keep her sight focused on following the spinning motion. But when she tries to take a shot at keeping her focus on a particular target, she grows terribly dizzy. She shuts her eyes and clumsily stops her spinning. She stumbles about in a circle before falling to her knees on the ground. She breathes heavy and fast as she places her hands onto the ground and hangs her head. Her hair sways as she breathes. “I need to understand… how to do it. My range of vision makes me dizzy. Why…?” She shakes her head and sits up only to feel sick. So she returns to her previous position and stares down at the ground. She’d begun to see things double vision in a sort of circling motion, so she shuts her eyes. Maybe Jem was right… she was fragile. She might never be able to master her own clan techniques.
“Did you run out of clothes?” Noemi opens her eyes and sits up to see the teacher looking at her. “Are you all right, Gnome-chan?” Noemi nods slowly to the instructor, a bit embarrassed that he’d found her in poor health yet again.
 “I haven’t run out of clothes. I just decided to keep on the same thing from yesterday so I could make it here. I feel a little guilty for not having had the chance to freshen up though.” She murmurs the last part as the teacher smiles. Her instructor never gave them his name. He simply insisted his students call him teacher or sensei. She wondered what his name was and why he preferred to remain anonymous to them.
“That’s good. If you’d run out then I would just give you another batch of clothing.” The man smiles and glances at the girl to take in her outfit. She’s wearing a loose fitting, white cotton top. It was sleeveless with thick straps and drifting doll to half way on her thighs. Beneath those she wore khaki shorts with the pant legs rolled up so they didn’t stick out from under the shirt until the garment drifted in the breeze or was stirred. Her warm, cream colored skin glows in the dim light of the sun sparkling through the spots in the trees cover above her. She smiles at the teacher and nods. She knew he would. He said that when he gave her clothing to wear, he secretly saw his late daughter in them. Her having died from an illness passed from her mother’s line. “Do you need assistance with your training?”
“Not really. I mean… it’s not really the training that’s the problem.”
“Yes it is,” someone states as Noemi looks to her left. A figure, clad in dark navy frocks, eyes her with bright silver eyes, the eyes of a Hyuuga. There was another Hyuuga in her class? “Your stance is off. And if you start out slow and then work your way to moving faster, you’ll keep from getting dizzy.” How would he know? Noemi looks at this figure, only showing his eyes, dark brown skin, and dark auburn hair. “Even for a frail member of the Hyuuga clan, doing that should greatly increase your chances for success.”
“Excuse me,” Noemi blurts out quickly. She stands beside the instructor and looks at this stranger. “We don’t even know one another, and yet you’re telling me all this. I’ve started out slow and moved into a faster movement, that didn’t work. I’ve tried keeping my eyes closed and decreasing my sense of sight to increase my other senses but that didn’t work either. I’ve tried a number of other things too. But it seems like—.”
“Are you going to say that it seems like you just won’t be able to do it? I met you a time before, with your family. But you don’t remember a lot of things revolving around your family or prior to certain events in the past. So you wouldn’t recognize me. When I first saw you, you were no less fragile than now. But in the Hyuuga clan, you can’t afford to be fragile. You have to overcome that and meet the minimum expectations. Otherwise, you might as well never use your doujutsu again and never perform a clan move for as long as you live.”
“Now Mel-kun,” the teacher interjects. Noemi watches Mel and thinks on what he’s saying. It was true that the Hyuuga clan wasn’t such a formidable clan for nothing, but she couldn’t keep from being how she was. She was a lot flimsier than other Hyuuga and she knew that. She would give her all, but she would never not be fragile. She would never accept that she would have to stop using her doujutsu and clan moves. She had them and needed to try her best to make the most of them, while still being fragile. So maybe she needed to try things over again. Try it his way, since he seemed to be knowledgeable of her. “Try and be a little more lax with Gnome-chan. She’s giving her best go at it. She just needs a little help in coping with her fragile disposition. So try and be a little warmer and give her a helping hand?” Noemi looks at the teacher and then at Mel who seemed less than pleased.
“Since I stuck my nose in… I will help her. I don’t want her to continue her training this way. I will keep our clan from being weakened and her from having to lock away her Hyuuga blood.” The boy closes his eyes and then opens them again. He walks over to Noemi as the teacher nods. Once he leaves the two of them alone to see how the rest of the class is doing in their training period, Mel and Noemi turn to face each other. “My name is Melvocleoari Vince of the Hyuuga clan, it’s nice to meet you again. Shall we get right into it?” The girl notices the slightly warmer way he made his greeting and wondered if he was just being harsh while the teacher was there. She soon comes to the decision that he was just being hospitable so that his greeting came off genuine.
“My name is Noemi Seybert of the Hyuuga clan, it is nice to meet you as well. I’m ready to begin training, Melva… Melvoka… I’m sorry. Um, how is it pronounced again?” Noemi smiles as a light blush dots her cheeks and runs across her nose. Melvocleoari looks at her a moment before sighing.
“Mel, is fine.” He steps away from her and then gestures for her to get into position. “Get into the stance to perform the Heavenly Spin.” She nods and then does as instructed. This time her arms are still angled wrong but the height off of the ground is reversed. “You shouldn’t be so level. The ways in which your arms move keep you balanced.” He walks over to the girl and places his palms on her arms. He gently guides her arms without gripping them to make sure her arms aren’t exactly level with each other. He lowers her left hand by about a half an inch and raises her other arm almost three inches. “Your balance has to be considered when positioning your arms. When you spun before, you tilted in one direction towards the beginning and after the point when you first focused on a target. So you need to level your arms to keep that side of your body balanced.” His eyes seem to hold little interest in them as he moves his hands from her arms. He places his hands with the palms towards her body near her hips and then goes on, “You also need to adjust your hips a little more to the back since your balance on the sides and front in back are different. After that,” he moves his hands to her thighs and kneels on the ground, “you need to move this leg farther out and this leg needs to bend more. Hm. In fact, bring this leg here in more.”
Noemi listens to Mel without a fuss. She takes his advice and logs it into memory the best that she can. “Okay.” Mel steps back from her after standing up and then crosses his arms. He stands and waits for her to begin. “Slow, right, Mel?” He nods and gives a mumbled yes. He’d slipped one hand up to cover his mouth as he thinks. Noemi begins to turn while keeping her eyes focused on a single target.
“Don’t worry about your eyes for now. Do whatever you feel you must with your eyes to keep from getting ill. I’m simply trying to gauge if this stance will be effective in keeping you balanced.” Noemi makes a ‘mm’ noise and then shuts her eyes. She just felt like she could remain calm during the process with her eyes closed. She pictures her surroundings as her other senses compensate for her sight. She relaxes her muscles in her head while keeping her others stiff to keep her limbs aligned as positioned. Mel nods, seeming to see something he approves of.✄---------------------------------------- Notes::

Hidden Leaf: Moving Around Outer East Edge Area of Village
✂⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯   xxx“Take a break and get something to eat,” Mel instructs as Noemi begins pinning her hair into a loose ponytail. She’d wanted to keep going, but it might be best for her to stay fueled. In the time in which she’d been training with Mel, she’d gotten a lot better. At slow speeds she could even open and close her eyes, look at a target, and move forward and back a few inches. But that was at a very slow speed. Still, his teachings helped her understand the technique better than from her just going by sight when watching other Hyuuga train. Noemi nods to Mel and then runs towards the area where the class would be sitting on their earthy chairs. The boy watches her go and then gives a sigh, as if he was still pondering something and just couldn’t get it.
When she finds the area, she notices everyone isn’t there. “Oh no… Where is everyone?” Vade watches from his place still in the tree as Noemi rushes off towards town. He sighs, pumping his right fist. He really wished he had a drink in that hand. But he was lucky he snagged that off some sleeping drunk guy. He wouldn’t have the same luck getting another one. Still… Vade stands atop of the tree and leaps down. When his feet connect with the ground his knees buckle. As his upper body lowers to the ground, he extends his arms a little in front of him and down towards the ground. His hands touch the ground and steady him as he comes to rest upon the dirt. He stands up straight and shoves his left hand into his pocket while gripping the rim of the bottom of his denim shirt with his other. He figured he’d head to town and try and snag a drink while he waited for the old teach to return with the lunch he had for the students. Hopefully he wouldn’t run into the other students that considered that a free point in time and went off to have a bit of fun.
He checked a local bar that had just opened but it was a little too clean inside. The drinks prices would be through the roof and no one inside seemed to be overdoing it. He walks along the streets a bit more and comes to a ramen stand that was being rolled along. It’s one of those carts that once they stop the merchant can pull out seats and a counter from the mobile item itself. So he might have a few drinks that he could get there. But when he notices the seller to be someone that he’d swindled before, he books it down the street. “Hey,” the older man bellows as Vade hurries along. He’d managed to get that teacher of his to put him in his class and he wasn’t going to blow it by getting in trouble with some guy he’d swindled before getting in good. So he decided to just rush away. Normally he’d bash the guy’s skull against a building and take all his hard drinks, but Vade was intent upon keeping the good school thing going. Besides, he wasn’t really interested in getting into trouble since he was feeling a little more like himself today. He carries forward, taking a few sharp corner turns before losing that merchant, and eventually comes upon a nice little bar in a cleaner part of the village.
Maybe it was the angry yells from inside, or maybe it was the lively music he could hear playing inside, but Vade felt like this might be the spot to get a drink. He takes his hand out of his pocket and lets it join his other hand in gripping the hem of his shirt on the corresponding side to his arm. As he motions forward and towards the bar he stops, noticing an odd feeling in the air. This didn’t seem good. But he needed a drink bad. “Damn it.”
With a heavy sigh, Vade turns around and begins heading back towards where his class was being held. “So there’s another one going where they don’t belong? Ain’t this nice?” Vade stops walking, feeling someone looking at him, and turns his head a little to the side. His green eyes fall upon a group of rough looking teenagers that seemed to have come out of the bar Vade had been heading over to. When they notice his eyes are green and his hair is blue beneath the cap, they snort. “Guess not.” Feeling a little annoyed by the trio, Vade turns around to face them. When he opens his mouth to speak his abnormally long fang teeth are easily visible. He seems to emphasize each word.
“Looking for a fight with me? Think cause I got blue hair and green eyes I’m not what you figured? Guess this is Hyuuga territory. Well don’t just turn tail and run when you’re faced with an unlikely Uchiha opponent. I didn't turn to leave cause I was scared, this place just ain't worth my time” The boys frown deeply as they stare at Vade. So that was what they were after, after all? “Just know that ain’t no goin’ back if you come at me. Cause at that point you’ll have pissed me off.” The three begin forming hand signs simultaneously, as Vade grins and reveals his fangs as if bearing them.✄---------------------------------------- Notes::

Hidden Leaf: Deep to Nearer Forest in Outer East Edge of Village
✂⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯ xxx“Vade-kun, you shouldn’t be picking fights like that. If you cause trouble then I’ll have to toss you out of the class.” Vade sits on a tree laying on the ground back in the forest where the class met at. The teacher seemed to be pacing and looking at him. The other students hadn’t returned yet, but the instructor wasn’t too concerned. He was more worried about Vade who had fought the three Hyuuga’s from the bar. He won the fight by a hair by turning the tables on them at the last minute and them pounding them until they all lost consciousness. Since the three were drunk and Vade claimed self-defense, he was not apprehended for his actions. “Next time you could get arrested too!” It was also helpful that the teacher was nearby when the village police arrived to take Vade in. He put himself on the line and vouched for him by giving points towards his character and taking responsibility for him. “What were you trying to do?”
“I need a drink,” is all that Vade says through gritted teeth. He felt like he owed this man now, and he didn’t like it. Didn’t help that the police belittled him. He was so pissed but he couldn’t attack them. He was already skating on thin ice with his recent actions. And he didn’t feel like being incarcerated again. He had to say that even he found it to be a rough experience that he’d rather not have again. Vade’s expression remains angry as the teacher stops pacing.
“Well you’ll just have to get one later. I brought the food for the class and they should be coming back soon. You can start eating now and then after class you can go and get your drink.” The instructor didn’t seem happy about Vade drinking at such a young age, but he had no ruling over the teen’s actions. He could only try and sway him. “But surely there can be another outlet?” He goes into a large plastic bag and pulls out a white container. He examines it a moment before extending it to Vade. Even though the Uchiha was angry and wasn’t in the mood to take anything from this man… he was very hungry. So he takes the container and stands from the tree. “Just think on it, Vade-kun. I’d prefer that when you do go drinking… if you decide to go… that you go with someone to try and keep the peace around you. I’d hate for you to have made your own way into getting in this class only to be thrown out by the school officials.” But by the time the teacher gets near to finishing, Vade has already left through a break in the forest nearby. With a sigh, the instructor aims his yellow eyes up at the sky and seems to have a private conversation with someone; himself or maybe someone else.
Vade sits upon the ground and tears open the wax paper covered paper container. He tugs off a metal handle used to carry the container, not needing it since he planned on eating every bite of the food in the large rectangular container. It resembled the typical take out bento box, though it was white and looked a lot like a takeout box from a Chinese restaurant. But Vade wasn’t interested in the minor details. He saw something moist and crunchy and picked it up with his hand and shoved it into his mouth. Then he found a nice cherry tomato and popped that in there too. He chews quickly, not chewing the food very well as a result, and continues finding food and stuffing it into his mouth. Before he knew it, the container was empty aside from a few crumbs and grains of rice. He didn’t even remember eating anything with rice in it. He pants hard, having eaten most of the food without taking the time to breathe. He then brings the container up to his face and laps up every little particle of food that lingered in the container. He pauses, the container completely empty and brings it down to his lap. He sits on the ground, one leg bent with the knee raised up and pressed to his chest, the other laying on the ground.
His hands are cupping the sides of the container very delicately. All together he brings both knees up to his chest and squeezes the container in his hands. He flings the object away from him and then forces his way to his feet. He glowers at the container, suddenly filled with rage. Was it something about the container? Did he find a dead bug in it or something? Perhaps there was a hint of poison in it? By his reaction it seemed to be something in that range of seriousness. His fists shake as he stares at the container before he finally lowers his head. “That wasn’t enough… To pass me over into the next day… that wasn’t enough…” He whispers to himself as he raises his head. His expression is slightly angered, but for the most part calmer than before. He grinds his teeth together and then shoves his hands into his pockets. He could hear the class talking and figured they were all eating. “I’ll just take a box from someone else. This was supposed to fill me up… that’s what I wanted…” His odd manner of talking to himself and suddenly becoming enraged was very odd.
Not to mention his mentioning of needing more than what was given to him. It came off very greedy and ungrateful. He shows some signs that he felt he was owed a meal that filled him up. He walks towards the place where the class is gathered and examines those around him. He can see that many of them had already begun eating their food and were nearly finished. No. If he was going to take someone’s it needed to have more food in it. And it needed to be someone who wouldn’t up and squeal. But the second part might be too much to ask for. ✄---------------------------------------- Notes::

Hidden Leaf: Forest in Outer East Edge of Village
✂⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯ xxxVade looks about the area before finding Noemi sitting on her favorite tree stump. She seemed to have opened her food and eaten a few bites but was now just sitting there seemingly staring at her lunch. He looks closer and then realizes that she’d falling asleep while sitting there. That had to be the best opportunity he’d come across since that bottle of vodka from the other day. He strolls over to Noemi’s position and eyes her food. He’d almost drool if he weren’t trying to play off taking her lunch. He begins to remove his right hand from his pocket to reach for the box when something stops him. “You her guardian now,” Vade asks as he turns his head a little to look at Mel who’d already finished his lunch.
xxx“No. I’m just coming to wake her up so that she can eat her food and we can get back to training.” He mutters something about telling her to go and eat and not to go take a nap but Vade’s not really caring. When Mel reaches out a hand to touch Noemi’s arm, Vade reaches out his hand and snatches away the girl’s lunch. With a start, Noemi lifts her head and begins looking around. Her once olive colored eyes growing paler and the craters in her pupils becoming more defined. She turns her head to look at Vade who seemed to be holding her box in his hand. “Just what do you think you’re trying to get away with? The teacher gave everyone a lunch, you only get one,” Mel states in a slightly aggressive tone of voice.
xxx“I’m still hungry and she ain’t eatin’ so I’m taking it for myself. If there’s a problem then she can just as easily stand up for herself.” Mel takes a step towards Vade only for Noemi to stand in between them.
xxx“You two shouldn’t fight. It’s just a lunch. I’m not very hungry anyway since I fell asleep. If he wants to take it and fight anyone that tries to stop him then let him have it.” Vade turns around and makes his way towards the area where he’d gone to eat before as Mel narrows his eyes. “You should try asking sometimes instead of just forcing things, Vade.” The Uchiha stops moving. Had she just called him by his first name? Was she so bold as to call him Vade like she knew him? He turns back around now. He brings up a free hand to scratch his head as he looks at the little Hyuuga before him.
xxx“I’ll give you some advice… Keep my damn name out of your mouth. You hate Uchiha and I hate Hyuuga. So don’t tempt me when you’re little less than a challenge for freak accidents to claim the life of.” Mel’s frown deepens as Vade makes this comment. How ungrateful!
xxx“Vade-kun?” Vade mutters a swear as he turns his head to look at the instructor who seemed to be standing at the front of the class. The other students are holding bottles of water and looking at the commotion. “Why are you taking Gnome-chan’s lunch? Was the one I gave you not enough?” Vade doesn’t respond. “I have a few extras, since I never know if someone new will show up. Thanks to you, Vade-kun. So you can just take another box. Please return Gnome-chan’s lunch and come get your box and water.” The teacher then continues digging into a burlap sack and distributing waters to students. Vade holds onto his angry expression and looks from Noemi to the teacher. He tosses the box over in Noemi’s direction and then heads towards the instructor. Noemi panics and begins grabbing at the air and trying to catch the box. She misses the catch and shuts her eyes only for Mel to snatch it out of the air easily.
xxx“Here,” Mel states as Noemi opens her eyes. She looks over at Mel and giggles bashfully. She takes the box with a thank you and then Mel starts towards the area where the two had been training before. “I’ll be in the forest. Eat your fill and then it’s back to training.” He calmly turns from her and walks away. Vade, meanwhile, motions over to the teacher and stands in front of him. The instructor smiles warmly and gestures to a box and bottle resting on a very high branch in the tree at the front of the area.
xxx“I would like you to get that lunch and bottle by the end of the day. But you have to use a technique to snag it. No regular climbing.” Vade frowns and then relaxes his face. He would do that and get the lunch. It wasn’t like he wasn’t fully capable. Noemi sits down, her eyes falling at the front of the class’s area to see Vade walking over to the tree confidently. She watches carefully as the teen leaps into the air, rolls midair, and then latches onto the tree with his feet. She could actually see the way in which Vade focused his chakra to his feet in order to walk along the tree trunk. Only because the teacher presented this as a challenge did Vade go up the tree. Both he and the instructor knew just what kind of power the Uchiha possessed, even if he never used it. So they knew he could manage walking up the tree. The other students watch as Vade reaches the tree branch holding the food and bottle and takes it. He walks all the way back down and then grunts.
“Next time you should make it a little harder,” Vade comments.
xxx“I intend to. You will have to perform an act everyday before lunch to get your meals. As punishment for having tried to take Gnome-chan’s lunch.” Vade frowns but listens as the instructor goes on. “It won’t always be easy like that one. It will build up and get more and more challenging. But if you can do it then you get your single lunch.” He notices Vade about to ask about what if he wants more than one and decides to cover that question. “If you want another lunch then I can give you another one. But you’ll have to lend me a hand with something. It won’t be unreasonable, I promise.” The Uchiha considers this proposition a moment. He winds up giving the man a nod as he heads off to go and eat his lunch. The teacher nods and then goes about passing out the waters again. ✄---------------------------------------- Notes::

Hidden Leaf: General Area Near the East of the Village
✂⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯ xxxNoemi manages to eat about half of her lunch before getting full enough. She didn’t want to eat too much and be unable to train. She wraps up her lunch and carries it by the handle as she ventures into the forest. She walks for a long while before realizing that she wasn’t going the right way. She begins to activate her doujutsu, having deactivated it while eating her lunch, when she notices eating sounds. Could that be Mel? She thought he had finished his lunch? She walks a little farther before the sounds stop. She breaks through a cover of low hanging tree branches to find an empty area. She looks around before noticing a discarded lunch box that had the handle torn off and the lid nearly ripped off. “It’s wrong to litter,” she thinks as she goes over to the box. She uses her free hand to lift up the trash and then returns to seeking out Mel. From a tree above a figure seems to dash off, having been carefully watching the girl.
xxx“I’m sorry.” Noemi sits on the ground with a bottle of water atop of her lap panting. Mel is standing beside her but soon sits on the ground next to her. “I can’t seem to go faster than what I have been without getting dizzy.” She pauses and looks at Mel. “It’s not that I can’t. It’s just that… Sometimes I have sick spells. They are more intense towards the evening hours.” Mel just sits there listening.
xxx“Don’t worry about it. We have made a lot of progress today. So you can just rest or study for the rest of class. We only have a few minutes left. We’ll try and pick up training tomorrow at the same time we started today. I guess after lunch we won’t train. The time before that is plenty of time since you catch on quickly.” He stands up and then begins walking away. Noemi turns to look at him as he concludes, “I’m heading back.” He is then gone. So from then on classes went on like that. Noemi would report to that location early in the morning and train up until lunch hour. During lunch she would watch the sorts of tasks Vade has to do for his lunch while eating her own. She would then study, take notes, and rest the rest of class. Noemi lays awake in her bed, staring up at the ceiling. The class would be moving forward to another village very shortly. The teacher said it would be a surprise where they would be heading, but that everyone would be free to go. They would have to relocate homes, but would have a sort of halfway house. It was more of a place where any student in a mobile class like hers would live until moving along.
xxxShe wondered how long they would be away and if they would return now and then back to Hidden Leaf. She turns her head to look at the young girl sleeping in the bed across from her. Suddenly the image of the sleeping girl is gone and just the made bed is there. “I wonder when Relula will be back. I hope I don’t miss her when I leave. I want to thank her for letting me stay with her and her family. I also want to say goodbye.” Noemi rolls onto her side in the bed and shuts her eyes. She wondered what kind of day tomorrow would be. As she drifts off to sleep, Vade lies awake staring at the stars. He’s standing in one of Hidden Leaf’s newest parks, right near the tire swing. He has a bottle of whiskey in his hand and a six-pack of beer in his other. In the black school bag slung across his shoulder glass knocking together is heard when he moves. He takes a swig of whiskey but gritting his teeth. That was a lot stronger than he’d expected. Then again, it had been a good long time since he had some whiskey. He wipes his mouth with his arm and then walks over to a swing. He sits in in, swinging a little, and watches the moon in the sky. The night sky was clear and littered with stars.
xxx“This life…” Vade mumbles to himself as he takes another drink of whiskey. This time he really guzzles it down. So he’d be leaving Konoha and all the gloriousness it held…? Wonderful. He couldn’t wait to get out of this screwed up town. But at the same time he wasn’t too happy about leaving. For one thing he’d have to get used to a new location. That meant figuring out what places had good booze, cheap booze, or where he could steal booze. The next thing was the fact that he’d be sharing living quarters with his class and any other traveling class. He really wasn’t looking forward to that. And finally… he had things here that he didn’t want to leave. He sets down the whiskey bottle and pulls out a small white rose from within his scarf. He stares at it contently as he makes the flower spin left to right in his fingers. The image of a makeshift grave sight comes into his head and he shuts his eyes. He releases the flower and it falls to his lap. He remains very still for a while before reaching down to the ground, stopping the swing to do so, and picks his whiskey bottle back up again. “I haven’t drunk enough… to forget…”
xxxHe raises the bottle to his mouth and readies to drink. But for some reason he can’t open his mouth. He drops the bottle to the ground in a way where it lands on its bottom and rocks but doesn’t tip over. He then drops his beers and leans forward. Nothing happens for a moment before he finally vomits. He begins laughing soon after, stating, “Looks like someone’s going to have to be cleaning that up… Not it.” ✄---------------------------------------- Notes::

Rook 'Riichi' Ryuujin
╔═════════════════════╗
Go ahead
╚═════════════════════╝ oOo Who shot that arrow in your throat?xxoOo Who missed the crimson apple?xxxxoOo This chaos, this calamity, this garden once was perfectxxxxxxoOo Give your immortality to me; I'll set you up against the stars
The young boy was simply basking in the beauty of his scythe. Oh how he loved his glorious weapon. As the other two began to rush forward, he quickly rushed back, trying to avoid them. He back flipped, used the blade of his scythe to propel him into the air. Oh how much fun he was having, although it would have been better if his partner could wake up. Maybe he should wake her up himself? But that would run the risk of simply injuring her more, and that was simply something he didn't want to do. He didn't want to use any more jutsu against these two, for he wanted to save up chakra for other events. But these two just weren't giving him a choice. He would ether have to give up, or kill them. And both were out of the questions. As evil and dark as he may seem, he was just simply a guy who liked to fight and hunt. Hey, that what he should be, A bounty hunter! The idea suddenly popped into his head and made him gasp. Once he was a safe distance away, he hopped back into the trees, looking down on them. One was a Nara, and the other was a Hyuuga. What approach should he use? Oh how he wanted to get this over with, oh how he wanted to go full out on them. But he must hold himself back, he wasn't going to hurt them. But he could, easily. He needed to do something, and he needed to do it quick. Maybe some miracle would happen and his partner would wake up. Two heads were always better than one. But for now, he would hang back, learn their movements, watch their every move, counter whatever they threw at him, try and get everything he could about them. Then he could devise a plan. Seemed simple enough, but better said than done.

I don't really have a destination, or anything of the sort. I'm kind of just wandering around at the moment. Trying to remember some things..." She said letting her sentence trail off. She looked like she was deep in thought. It was so difficult for her to put the flashes that appeared at random together in to a coherent train of thought. But the thought of his home land, all of the sand it made her get the chills. She shivered, physically shaking unsure why, but it wasn't a pleasant feeling. Her attention shifted from her thoughts back to bone. She felt awkward standing there silently and shaking like she did. She let out a laugh and playfully pushed on his shoulder. "Either way, I want to see what a puppet master is all about. Hmmm... Do you use them for fighting? Or are they just for entertainment? I have never seen a puppet master fight with their puppets before. Sorry for rambling on like this. I'll shut up now."
She walked down the streets of hidden leaf talking with her new friend. She noticed that people were still glancing at her then her wing occasionally as they passed by. It was uncomfortable to say the least. She wasn't sure how long it would take to get used to it. The reason she felt that way was because she just didn't feel whole. Angels were always depicted flying, and of course in order to do so they would need to have a pair of wings. Not just one. She reached up and tugged on the hood of her cloak making sure her face was covered. She peered over to Bone and just gave him a simple, but fake smile. She didn't really feel comfortable being around all of these people. Bone probably did, seeing as he would put shows on for people, but she wasn't a fan of the spotlight.
"So, where to? You should lead the way. I am kind of hoping to do something fun." She said with a smile. She was feeling mischievous, and wouldn't mind getting in to some trouble.

 Shikarama Nara, The Dedicated Genius Rook's confidence faded for only a moment, as he smile disappeared and then returned. It had lost some of it's dark intent, though. Shikarama's eyes however, were focused on Aya, whom had lost consciousness, as Rook just noticed. They all had in there minds as to what was the cause. But regardless, Shikarama knew they had to end this and end it quickly. Rook held his hands together, over his mouth, as he called out to the two of them. "Gomen! I just don't know what came over me." Despite his almost apologetic nature, he still seemed ready to fight. With a snap of his fingers, he directed the fire dragon by him to Aya, having it envelope and protect her. It was a somewhat pointless gesture, as Shikarama was more worried about her then ready to fight her. Rook ran a finger across his scythe's blade, before smiling darkly again, his eyes looking out past them. He then jumped down to ground from the tree, still burning. He held the blade of his scythe in his hand, as his eyes displayed to the world the bloodlust in them. Logan stepped in front of Shikarama. Shikarama wasn't certain how well he was, but knew he was just as ready to end this as the Nara was. Logan nodded to Shikarama, and Shikarama returned the sign. Logan sprinted ahead, Shikarama following behind. He quickly formed handseals, preparing a jutsu, as Logan directed a series of gentle fist attacks at Rook. Rook moved back, flipping as he pushed off with his scythe's edge, to flight. He moved into the trees above. Logan rushed up after him, disappearing between the branches. Shikarama quickly threw out a kunai towards Rook. Attached to it was a flash bomb. As it would reach Rook, it would go off, blinding him and giving Logan a chance to move in.Shikarama, meanwhile, finished forming the seals of his jutsu. He released the jutsu, although the effect wouldn't be immediate. He rushed out towards Rook's position. Prepared to end it here. 39428 SP/chakra Spendable skill points: 188 Uzumaki Naruto 2000 Hit Combo: 1200/1200 Wind Release: Spiraling Shuriken: 188/1500

--Laura Midori-- Laura Midori, ∴ Hidden Grass Village Genin ∴ Laura relaxed as she entered the village. She learned all of her clan jutsu and other village jutsu. The freedom was overwhelming. She was completely free. She could train freely. The first jutsu she would learn would be the Sakura Haruno kunai trick and genjutsu release. Then she'd need to learn the body flicker technique to avoid attacks. Plus all the other elemental techniques she could use. Konoha was a jutsu center.
Laura nodded to herself as she settled herself in a tree. There were a couple of dummies below her. It was a wide, open spot. She smiled gently as she grabbed her kunai with the pouches containing explosive tags. She threw them all around the six dummies. The pouches exploded into tons of tags all around. Laura whispered to the special kunai with an explosive tag. She whispered gently and then threw it away from her. The kunai hit the main dummy between the eyes. The tag began to light itself. It got closer to the base of the tag.... BOOM!
A beautifully destructive force hit her face. The tags flew around, along with dust and dummy pieces in a circular motion. It looked like a beautifully destructive petal shower. ∴ Midori :: Grass Ninja ∴ Hidden Grass Legacy ===========================

When hearing his comment on how finding the lord of chaos child was a bit broad she couldn't help let out an annoyed sigh. He had a point even if it was annoying. Half of the people in this city where children who had weird spiked hair. And the rest of them seemed to have cats running around for no reason. ' Bunch of freaks,' She thought as her left eye twitched. She was never a cat person, even in her old life and thus people who enjoyed felines where off to her for some reason. Maybe trying to find a crazed child who had a cat best friend wasn't the best idea in the world, especially if said child was a lord of chaos. Half of her wasn't even sure what a being would look like, let alone how one would act in such a manner. Loki was interesting enough and she couldn't even imagine what another lord of chaos would act like. Let alone if there was more of staggering around in this word, acting as if they owned the entire place.
As she was lost in her thoughts silence seemed to take over them, however was unnoticed at the moment. However it soon ended as Reiko's voice took her away from her thoughts. It seemed that male wanted to know what would happen next. It was a good question as she didn't even know what was going to happen now. “ Honestly?" She asked while lifting her left eyebrow however managed to keep her smirk on her face. “We could travel the world and search for lords and ladies of chaos which a minor chance of finding them, or we could grow stronger, train for these chaotic people and meet up at a destroyed village. Flames and all with the entire place being filled with screaming people and young shinobi who sacrificed their life's for the good of the nation. Fight some monster or humanoid looking being and hope we win. If not them off to the after life." She said with a shrug of her shoulders. It was sad yet true.

--Laura Midori-- Laura Midori, ∴ Hidden Grass Village Genin ∴ Laura jumped down from the tree with a sucessful look on her face. The next jutsu on her list was a genjutsu release. It was a simple jutsu. It was helpful, too. She couldn't sleep or be terrorized by genjutsu. It was a very good protective jutsu.
Laura passed the destroyed dummies. She wanted to head to town to explore. She could use a break. Maybe she'd see a medical nin or someone who could help. Maybe she'd find Sakura. ∴ Midori :: Grass Ninja ∴ Hidden Grass Legacy ===========================

Ryorin talking to your character  Remnant had found himself listening in to the girl's conversation. She wanted to seak out Chaos and try to find it. Some bings were not understanding of the bigger picture. and it was one of the biggest things in the world. He managed to find himself walking towards them sighing a bit. "You don't want to find something like Life..chaos..order..and Death. Those who seek them out only turn into lunatics.. or worse. you should forget what happened when Chaos invaded the land. It will only give them.. more reason to fight for this nation again." He said slowly as he eyed the girl. She was different. A child of Chaos none the less. He put his hands in his pocket as his one wing started to flutter quickly. He didn't understand the need to understand such things. He never wanted too. He never cared to understand things. What was the meaning of life. What happened when you died? To many questions and not enough answers. He slowly put his hands to the wind and felt life surging. "You understand?" He had woken up without his memory. He was an angel of some sort..looking for his other. He knew that there wasn't that many of them. They were a close group. He placed his hands back at his side looking at the ninjas here.. they were all so unhuman. what had happened to the race of humans.. they had become monsters.. and just so bizarre. He only stared at them slowly. Wondering what kind of monsters they were.. and what exactly he would be bonding with.

The small framed boy with violet eyes slowly walked through Hidden Leaf. He found that the people here wanted to have so much power. But there was one person in general that he wanted to fight. He only stopped in front of Rook. He knew this boys heart because it was trying to win his own. He drug his hand through his hair and it caused some sparks to happen. As he licked his lips and his voice seemed to drag.. it was annoyingly high..and optimistic.
"I hear you like to play with fire.."
The little boy kept smiling. He pointed his hand towards Rook and his hand started to catch on fire. It started to glow a bright white. He then clenched his hand together and the fire exploded in front of them. The fire created a bright flash and he stood there for a moment.
"So do show me.. What you are all about? Because I am going to rip your face off and wear it..really soon."
The small boy said to Rook.

The flash bomb was bright, oh so bright. And something happened to make it even more brighter. Shielding his eyes, Rook jumped back off the branch, not even worrying about anything at this point. He just needed to gain his surroundings, he needed to know where he was. Placing his scythe on his back again, hiding it in his long trench coat, and landed on a branch a little ways away. As he landed, he began to survey the area for those two who kept on attacking him. Sighing, he noticed they were nowhere to be seen. But it seems someone else has entered the field. It was odd, Rook wasn't even breaking a sweat yet, but he's been fighting for a while. But that wasn't what made him feel odd. It was this kid that appeared in front of him. Just some off purple eyed kid, standing their judging him. What was his problem? It would seem this little boy was challenging him to a fight, and Rook was getting an odd wave of power rushed off him. Something wasn't right about this kid. It felt like he was standing in front of a Sannin or something, something Rook has never done before. But none the less, this kid carried it. Rook tipped his head to the side, his smirk present on his face, After a few moments, Rook nodded.
"Come at me, Bro!"

The Boy only dragged his hand through his hair again. He was actually surprised that the boy was so willing to challenge him. Not really people that h ad used fire most of the time.. they were fiery and hot headed. He would teach him humbleness and regret. He only whistled a bit as he put his hands behind his head.
"I am not your bro... I am your elder."
The Boy stomped his foot against the ground. As he did the ground would start to get hotter and hotter. The small boy started to walk towards him. As he started to walk closer to him the heat that he generated would start to fill the area. It would become like sitting in an oven the closer he got towards Rook. His clothes didn't change. His expression didn't change. He still had a very dull look that was lulling across his eyes.
"You have yet to impress me..can you even use that weapon you got there.. because if you can... Maybe that will help you..Probably not..I think your face will look good on mine.."
He said with a childish smile.
