Etsushi Motarasu Suna||Chunnin||Assassin||
So what if you can see the darkest side of me? No one will ever tame this animal I have become./
Etsushi pursed her lips together. Having been an assassin ninja, she was trained to hear things far away. She considered telling them that she could hear everything they were saying, but then realized she didn't care and moved closer to the Kage's. "You do realize this is the Chunnin Exams? I would have thought that the Kage's of all people, would have known better than to fight and instead bestow upon each other inner village unity. Its like your screaming "We're fighting, so everybody else in our village should hate the other village too," She paused, "Unless it was a friendly spar, in which case you guys should have been smart enough to use a training field and not in the middle of the bloody civilian sector, " she said, waving her hands at all the civilians and the other civilian buildings, "Honestly, if you're our Kage," she said, turning her attention to Zane, her eyes remaining icy and her voice dripping with sarcasm and malice as she spoke the entire time, "I absolutely fear for the safety of Sunagakure. Or at least Shi," she added as an afterthought.

Matsuya looked at Kaze as the boy spoke. "Those are two of the closest people I have to family. But in layman's terms, they're Zane Hajime and Luo Ushio. The Kazekage and Mizukage." Matsuya sighed and sheathed Shadow Kira as they finished fighting. He straightened his robes around him and looked at the girl who seemed to have appeared from nowhere. "She's one of Zane's? Interesting. It seems everyone from Suna has an attitude these days." Matsuya looked back at the two men who he'd grown up with. "Now, now. I do feel left out. To date, you're never let me participate in one of your little fights. And even now, when I'm Hokage." Matsuya made a mock sad face at them both. But his face quickly split into a grin. "Good to see you, Zane. Been some time."

Etsushi eyes turned cold as she looked at the other man. She flexed her fingers around the kunai she was still gripping onto, like her life depended on it. She could feel a headache growing one the sides of her head, near her temple, "I have an attitude, now," she asked, turning her eyes to look at him, her voice growing dark, challenging, and dangerous. At the moment, she really could have cared less that she was facing three Kage's; they remained nothing but humans to her, whose blood would look beautiful splattered across Nagi Island's ground.
"Is it just me, or have the Kage's I've seen proven to be more pathetic than actually strong and fearing like they're suppose to be," she asked the Hokage, her eyes growing colder with each word, as threatening chakra began to leak out of her very pores, "Or what? Have the Kage's lost all ability to use common sense, as of late?"

Luo Ushio Pride Of The Mist テキスト翻訳 Suiton| Ina Hassei Ryouken No Jutsu l Fire l Mizukage l Wind l Shark Summoner As Luo heard Zane speak, he sighed a bit. He would have gladly continued to beat the man to a bloody pulp, but there was no point at the current juncture. As his hand landed quickly and swiftly on his friends head, his eyebrow raised as he muttered, "Wood? So you're...it's a rather drastic change Zane." With a grin, he finally at long last put an arm around him, hugging him closely and tightly for a moment before the wind benath his feet finally ceased. As he fell to the ground, he pulled out the same scroll he had used earlier, causing his blades to swarm back into their places. As the last one hit its mark, the scroll wrapped up completely. Placing it on his back, Luo walked towards the girl, his placid facial expression returning quite quickly. The girl had raised valid points, but in a rather distinctly rude nature, something Luo sought to correct quickly. However, from what he had seen of Suna born shinobi, they were not at all good with taking direction or even being disciplined. He feared for them and their village, and sincerely hoped Zane's return would rectify the way they were.
"I apologize, I have not seen my brother Zane in over two years now. If we fight, it is not out of hatred, but out of brotherhood. As for the area in which we fought, you can blame Zane for not being able to contain himself until we were in an appropriate field. However, this does not mean that we have no self restraint. Every face in that crowd over there has been seen and carefully calculated into both of our attacks. As such, no one was in any immediate danger, save of course for the one person who seemed to step into a rather dangerous field. However, what I as a kage do not appreciate is being called pathetic." As Luo's rant began, his voice raised ever so slightly, becoming the equivalent of a normal speaking voice, a rather immense change for those who knew the rather soft spoken man who very rarely raised his voice past the point of a mutter which for one reason or another was audible. And as the girl had uttered out of her own mouth, Luo's words would indeed make sure her vision of a kage was not tainted in any way.
As her body leaked chakra, Luo put his right hand on the kunai she gripped so tightly in her hand as she faced Matsuya. Of the three in the area, he was the lesser of three evils. He was indeed kind, in control of both emotion and temper, but above all else a powerful speaker. "If you are to hold us to any standard whatsoever, then you should hold yourself to the standards of a shinobi, as well as the standards of your village. How dare you as a shinobi of any land disrespect not one, but three kages. Even more so, how dare you not only interfere with the affairs of two kages no matter the situation, insult the three of us and by proxy our villages, and threaten a kage by allowing your chakra to flare and holding a kunai in what is obviously intented malice? If there is anyone here who has lost all common sense, it is you. And I suggest you regain that, respect, and composure; and do so quickly." As Luo had began to speak, his own chakra had began to leak out in such a controlled fashion, it was a testament to just exactly why the young man had earned his position. And as the midnight blue hues streaked upwards and around him like cosmic fumes, he uttered his final thoughts to the young woman, his hand still resting rather gently on the hand which held the kunai. "I fear for the safety of Sunagakure not because of the rather competent leader you now have and as such better respect, but because of Suna's disrespectful, stubborn, and incompetent shinobi. I fear for your land because those who should protect it, are instead throwing caution as well as their lives to the wind by acting so boldy in what many would call an act of stupidity. And if there is one thing I as not only a kage, but a person do not and will not tolerate, it is the stupidity of mankind."
As Luo had finished speaking, his chakra had reached its full height. He had not revealed it in years in all honesty because there really was no reason to. He hated the rather childish ways people displayed their chakra as if flexing some intangible muscle to assert their dominance. But in this instance, Luo had done it to warn the girl of the grave mistake she had made by what she had done. He made sure to let her know in a rather unsubtle manner that that was the wrath of just one of the three men she had insulted. And as the ground around him and her shattered and shards floated and remained still in the air as his potent power at its fullest held them as if they were nailed to the air around them, Luo had let it be known that he and the others were walking controlled disasters. And if anything were to set one of them off, there was very little anyone in the area save for one of them could do to stop their torrent. The air around them grew thick, to most as well as the young woman even difficult to breathe in. His chakra had not only dwarfed hers, but surrounded it to the point of suppressing it to compress around her body, not allowing it to extend any further. His chakra seeped off of his right hand and his eyes which were a carbon copy of his chakra stared into the girl's irises. In this act, Luo had issued a warning, and a final one at that. It seemed that the more Suna shinobi he met, the more he grew tired of them and the village. He hoped Zane was indeed enough to change that and tame the lot of them. He hoped that Sunagakure would not be cursed with the plight of such an unruly crowd.

Kaze ArashiIwagakure| Yonbi Host | Genin Tactical | Speed | Bold | Unpredictable  Kaze sat there in amazement-- The battle finished, and it was simply amazing. 'Mizukage...And Kazekage...?' Kaze thought. Kaze was surprised when a girl stepped into the battlefield. He also stood there when she was talking with the Hokage. But, since he was listening to their conversation, he heard the insulting comments toward the Mizukage, and Kazekage. It reminded Kaze of himself, except, his disrespect was out of immaturity and inexperience. Her comments of disrespect were out malice, which Kaze could not point out-- But he could tell it was not a good comment.
But, when the Mizukage began lecturing the girl, Kaze listened closely. He spoke with confidence, and it was kind of scary. This made Luo come across as cold and mean in Kaze's eyes. He was happy he had a graceful and kind Kage. But, the Mizukage had a point in his words. Maybe it was not out of hatred for this girl? Maybe he was just putting in his opinion. Kaze stood up from the ground, and walked over to the Kazekage and Mizukage. He quickly shook their hands. "Nice to meet you, Kazekage." He said as he forcefully shook the Kazekage's hand-- The Kazekage was lazy, from what the Mizukage said during their battle. Kaze quickly moved to the Mizukage, and bowed. He...Didn't want to shake his hand, it was like....Something he didn't want to do. It gave off a...Kind of vibe that was a warning. "The battle was amazing." He exclaimed as he left the restaurant in a hurry. "Sorry Mizukage, Hokage, and Kazekage." Kaze said as he hurried. "I was so wrapped up in the battle, and forgot that I was supposed to meet my Tsuchikage!" He exclaimed, leaving in a very very quick movement.

Zane Hajime ||Kazekage||Terror of Dunes||Puppet Master||Medical Genius|| As Zane and Luo held a quick embrace between two brothers. As he dropped down to the ground, he followed suit to Luo and sealed his swords unto the scroll. He couldn't help but feel utterly embarassed by Etsushi's outburst...it was one thing to insult him...it was something completely different to insult the Kages of other villages. As Luo began his rant, Zane stepped over to him and placed his hand on his shoulder. "Brother...I know how you work...and I just want to apoligize for her behavior. It is my fault, and I assure you, it won't happen again," Zane stated as he shot a quick and piercing glance at Etsushi. The girl is going to get herself killed...within seconds if she continued this behavior.
Though Zane hadn't been kage long, and he hadn't known Etsushi and the other sand shinobis long...it wasn't his fault that the Sand shinobis were like this. Nevertheless, he was their leader now, and their actions reflected his. So despite the fact that he had only been Kazekage for a couple of days, he still felt responsible. "Now...rest assure, I'll be working on Suna tirelessly, my goal being that our power will rise greater than Mist, though with the bunch that I gotta deal with...I've got a long road ahead of me," he sighed as he let his arms now hang by his side.
"Etsushi...there must be a reason why you've come to Nagi Island," Zane said, figuring that it was to deliver a message to himself. Why the clone chose Etsushi was beyond him.

Etsushi Motarasu Suna||Chunnin||Assassin||
So what if you can see the darkest side of me? No one will ever tame this animal I have become./
Etsushi eyes narrowed and her shoulders tensed when Luo's voice raised. She stared at him unmoving as he began the rant she knew was coming from one of them. Her eyes flashed, and her hamstrings clenched together. She cocked her head to the side, her eyes growing colder with each word. When his hand touched hers, her hand flinched, paranoia and malice working its way up from the depth of her very soul. She remained still after that as he spoke, his chakra swirling around the two, pushing and lashing out at hers. She did not fight it. She wasn't completely stupid. His chakra reserves were more than hers, she knew that, and instead of wasting it trying to outshine his, she let his chakra push hers back into her body.
As the air grew thick and heavy, a thin sweat broke out across her forehead, and though she did nothing to show the fact she was growing uncomfortable out the body numbing chakra that swirled around her, she remained absolutely still. If it wasn't for the fact that she has sweat on her forehead, she would have appeared to look like a realistic statue. Though the ground caved in around her feet, and the small blocks of ground floated around her, obstructing her vision, she continued stare at the Mizukage; loathing shining out from inside her pale eyes.
Her knuckles flexed around the kunai she realized she hadn't been breathing for the past minute due to his suffocating chakra. She leaked more chakra out, giving her skin and eerie dark red look as if she was coated and dripping in blood. It wasn't a sign of dominance, she was just forcing some of his chakra back so she could breathe again, though the sight of blood, even if it was chakra, caused her eyes to darken. A feral look passed through them, and settled in the white pools, as her tongue gently touched the edge of her lips and swiped the parched flesh. She returned to her stand still when the red haired genin came by, holding back the blood lust that was threatening to leak out. All she needed to do was reach over and swipe the genin's neck. Blood would be poured. She didn't care if the Kage's attacked her then, at least she would go down with the warm thick blood on her hands.
Then he was gone, and Zane spoke to her. She blinked as if coming out of trance; the feral look, blood lust, and malice gone in a split second. Her body relaxed, and the kunai dropped from her hand to the ground. She snatched her hand away from the Mizukage and took a step back away from them. Then another and another until she was five steps away from them. "What?" she asked, "I'm here on a mission," her voice returning to the velvety voice she normally spoke in.

Luo Ushio Pride Of The Mist テキスト翻訳 Suiton| Ina Hassei Ryouken No Jutsu l Fire l Mizukage l Wind l Shark Summoner As Luo's eyes continued to look into the girl's after she had finally stepped away and dropped the kunai, his chakra seemed to fade slowly out of existence, the sound of rocks dropping to the ground echoing around him. Nodding at Zane's words, he sighed a bit. The girl was obviously resentful of the scolding, and she looked rather apathetic about the whole thing not even taking care to apologize for her behavior. But it wasn't Luo's problem, it was Zane's so he let it be. As a small boy rushed up to Zane and shook his hand, and bowed in front of Luo before leaving, he shook his head at the mention of their spar. Surverying the area, Luo groaned more or less to himself as he nodded towards Matsuya and scratched the back of his head with a rather guilty smile as he looked at Nikko who was coming out of the shop. His restaurant itself was not damaged at all, however the front waiting area was a different story. He hadn't had to say the next few words out of his mouth in years, since the last time he Matsuya and Zane tried to grab a bite to eat at Nikko's back home. It seemed that Zane and Matsuya were both sometimes stubborn, and it led to arguments which led into rather lengthy fights Luo was forced to attempt to stop by any means. And these tiny tiffs seemed to result in receiving the monthly mission to repair the sushi den, their former sensei and kage taking the money that was supposed to be paid to them and giving it to Nikko to pay for the cost of repairs and shutting the place down. "Sorry about the mess Nikko, we'll pay for the damages and reconstruction and help fix up a few things." As he finished speaking, Nikko began to laugh heartily. He rubbed his hand in Luo's hair and patted Matsuya and Zane on the back. It seemed he was just happy to see them all in good health and in one place once again. Nikko when they were younger was always a wealth of advice when they went to eat. He often settled disputes between the three and could even recite what meals each of them ate and at what time of the year they ate them. He was like an uncle to the three, and Luo could tell that it was a bit of a surprise for all of them to be in one place. But as he turned his attention to the young shinobi who was on a mission, he waited for her to reveal what exactly her mission was to Zane. He was interested as well as to why she was there if she wasn't participating in the chuunin exams.

Zane Hajime ||Kazekage||Terror of Dunes||Puppet Master||Medical Genius|| As she took several steps back, he smiled at Nikko. "Not we...I'll pay for the damages, it was my fault anyways. You know me Nikko...I could hardly control myself when I saw Luo," Zane laughed as Etsushi said why she was there. Suddenly, Zane was standing behind her, not letting her walk away anymore. Frankly, he wanted to just place some chakra strings on her and drag her back to Suna...but he wouldn't do that in front of Luo. Etsushi would still see 'Zane' standing in front of her, and it wasn't until Zane said "And your mission is?" that she would turn around to face him. The Zane standing away from her was an afterimage.

Etsushi Motarasu Suna||Chunnin||Assassin||
So what if you can see the darkest side of me? No one will ever tame this animal I have become./
Etsushi jumped, and spun around, grabbing the hilt of her katana and spinning it to the mystery person's neck. She froze just as the sharp edge cut into the first layer of skin. Her eyes widened when she saw Zane standing behind her, and narrowed her eyes towards the last place she saw the Kazekage, only to see the after image fade away completely. She stood froze again, the katana to her neck as fury and darkness wormed its way back up from her soul. She felt funny; troglodytic almost; and it was causing paranoia to rise up inside of her. She was acting irrationally, and completely different that how she normally did. Granted she was still cold; but she knew not to attack a Kage; less much three. Not as a chunnin anyway. She would barely make it three steps before she would be cut down. Maybe if she was a jounin she would have a chance... or a Sannin. Maybe. Just maybe.
She turned back to the real Zane, her eyes wide and distress bubbling beneath her eyes. Suddenly she flinched as if somebody had struck her with a blow and her hand shook as her eyes glazed over. She twitched again and her breathing hitched, her chest rising and falling with each heavy breath she took. A whimper escaped her lips and suddenly she had a kunai in her other hand, this time pointing straight at Luo; as her body began to tremble. She turned her eyes to the Hokage, then to the Kazekage, then back to the Mizukage, and kept her eyes rapidly moving as she opened her mouth and spoke, her voice shaking, "You said- your clone said. Folder. Deliver to you."((Just to let you guys know, Etsushi and Shi have delusions when away from each other for too long. Its in the Shinobi background story; but I don't know how many people read those. They were abused, and because Zane scared the shiznet out of her, Etsushi is having a panic attack because she thinks she's back in her childhood. >< ))

Zane Hajime ||Kazekage||Terror of Dunes||Puppet Master||Medical Genius|| As Etsushi began to tremble and spin around rapidly, Zane didn't stop the katana from cutting into his skin. She stopped herself just as she cut only the first layer. It would be to her surprise that blood wouldn't trickle down his neck, actually, if she were to cut him just about anywhere, no blood would be shown. It was his secret...the reason why there was hardly anyone who could kill him. "Etsushi...get a hold yourself!" Zane told her as he held his hands up, palms open to show her that he meant no harm. "Now, please give me the folder and lets get you out of here, back to to Shi...it'll be okay," Zane explained to her, trying to calm her down. This was just great...Luo and Matsuya would never live it down that he probably has the hardest kage job out of all of them.
(Actually, I did read it, and thankfully Zane's read through the profiles in the rp!)

Matsuya had stared at the girl as she had threatened him. He'd made no movement whatsoever. Both out of anger and pity. Both of them for the girl. As he saw Luo increase his chakra output he slowly curled his lips into a smile. The man was a saint in demon's clothes. But Matsuya's greatest surprise was when Nikko exited the restaurant and patted him on the back. It'd been years since Matsuya had last seen the old man. "I can't let you do that Zane. By my count I still have a tab to settle with Nikko. Let me throw in a quarter of the repair costs. Should just about settle our debt, correct?" Matsuya's question was directed at Nikko himself. The man nodded and looked on at Zane and his shinobi. Matsuya might have made a speech out of the girl's threats, but Luo had voiced almost everything Matsuya would have said. And Luo had done it without a blade to the girl's stomach. It did seem Zane had his work out for him.

So what if you can see the darkest side of me? No one will ever tame this animal I have become./
Etsushi flinched when Zane raised his hands, half expecting him to reached out and crack his hand against her face. Her skin paled, sucking in her breath between her teeth. If she wasn't wearing a mask, they could see her chin tremble. A coldness came over her, as the katana and kunai began to shake in her hand. Her throat constricted, making it feel as if there was a lump in her throat. The feeling of derealization over came her, and her stomach churned. The world began to spin.
Get a hold of yourself Etsushi. You're having a panic attack. Nothing you've never had before. Just calm down. Nothing's here to hurt you. The Kazekage is right. Give him the documents and you can leave and go back to Shi. I need to throw up, she thought, as she sucked in air, trying to keep what little she did eat down. Her eyes widened when she realized that she couldn't move. She knew that was a symptom of panic attacks, but, it had only been numbing before; never actual paralysis.
"I- I realize I am probably the last person you want to help," she said, speaking to all three of them at the same time, "But I am having a panic attack, and paralysis is one of the symptoms that have seem to got me. I- would ask if one of you would hit a pressure point directly where my collar bone meets my shoulder bone. That will allow me to move again, so I can finish my mission," she said, before closing her eyes, and swallowing in a lot of air, "Please," she grumbled. ((Fact: All the symptoms in the post, are actual symptoms of a panic attack. Also, the pressure point at the area I described, is a de-stressing pressure point. Also, me and Orchid were talking about how we feel sorry for Zane cause he's the Kazekage of Shi and Etsushi. xD Hand in there Zane. I still lovers yew! ))

Zane Hajime ||Kazekage||Terror of Dunes||Puppet Master||Medical Genius|| Zane nodded as he slowly moved to Etsushi. His hands held up visible to her. He didn't want to intimidate her in any way or frighten her. "What are you talking about? You're wearing a suna headband...it's my job to help you," Zane told her as he struck the pressure point in which she had told him to strike. Hopefully it would do the trick.

Etsushi yelped when he hit the pressure point, and her legs caved in, causing her to fall to the ground, her kunai and katana clattering beside her as they hit the ground. She looked up at him glaring," Don't scare me like that next time," she hissed, grabbing her katana and kunai. She put the katana back in her sheath and twirled the kunai on her finger, before putting it back into her kunai holster. She reached into her pouch and held out the folder, but hesitated.
"Kazekage... you're weird," She said bluntly, "Nobody has accepted either my sister or me, before. Even when we were young and had yet to spill any blood, they would take one look at our red and pink hair and shun us. To this day, I still do not understand why we must be punished for the sins of others," her eyes grew cold and distant, as if she was thinking of something else. Her hand rubbed the side of her stomach unconsciously, before she looked at him, "That doesn't mean to say, that I have accepted you. Nor is it means to say that if you ever put Shi in any kind of danger, I won't try my hardest to eradicate you from this planet before the next sunrise," she threatened, before handing him the folder and turning around. She began to walk away, before she stopped and smirked, "Try not to destroy anymore civilian sectors. Have fun cleaning up," she said, and pumped chakra into her feet, before shooting off towards the gates.
~Exit to the Gates~
