Welcome to Gaia! ::

Zanoke say at his desk on this naturally gloomy day. This village had met its end, and the strongest of the willing had joined the ranks of his establishment. All was going as planned, the Kioshi Clan of the Hidden Rain village would soon be restored to prosperity. One of his soldiers, a strong looking girl named Sabrina came in and got on a hand in knee. "Zanoke-San! I have news that we have multiple invaders. It must be for that mission request Zabashi sent out before we finished offing the heads of this village. How do you want me to handle them?"

"My Sabrina, you've done great work as expected. Have the men exterminate them and we can proceed on building an empire here. I'm sure you can have fun with these intruders, release the animals first to test them" said an experianced voice. He wore a blood red ribbon over his entire ninja headband. His face was a pale white, menacing with fangs almost like a vampires, though that wasn't was he was. His feet were up on the desk, he couldn't see the doorway past the tip of his boots, his bulky build relaxed in the cushioned rolling chair.

Sabrina said "Consider it did. It's only a group of kids anyway, how much trouble could they be? Our spies have even notify us they plan on splitting up from the center of the village."

Zanoke smirked "Don't have too much fun my dear Sabrina, we have more important things to attend to"
Sabrina stood to her feet and saluted "Yes Zanoke-san, I'll control myself" and left him.

Ryo nodded, "I'm sure, don't you have faith in your team Yumiko?" he asked. "We're all stronger if we all believe in each other, and in a mission without Kakorata we need to understand that" said Ryo as he walked through the gate. Teamwork 101, of course they would recognize it. Every ninja knew that. He was simply saying alot of nothing to lead whatever was hiding in this village into the false sense of thinking they were 'just kids'.

"Come out come out wherever you are. So much for cooperation. If there are chuunin here they're in on it."
Ryo approached a house cautiously. There were large claw marks that penetrated the door so Ryo could see in. There were claw marks all over the house. A potent smell leapt from the inside of the house. "Just as I suspected, this attack reeks with animosity potion. The villagers couldn't have all been attacked. Someone of them must have been the attackers. I can't wait to see what's at the heart of the village. Looks like a well from back here, but I bet there's much more going on here that a cloudy sky..." thought Ryo, trying to size up things.

"It's all clear in this one" he yelled out to his teammates. He would act surprised if one of them noticed. Anything he knew that the enemy didn't would give him another chance at holding the element of surprise.

Itachi-clone looked at Minato and said "I spy some trouble in this village. And surely, Sasuke would be able to handle it. That is if it weren't for that b*****d their leader..." he said with his activated sharingan glaring down on Ryo as he stepped into the city. "They call their leader Zanoke, and he is undoubtabley on our level Minato. That is giving you enough credit to say your on my level...but he is apperantly the strongest of the Kioshi Clan. With my sharingan I can see some of the genjutsu set up to test Team 1. This is far more than a D-rank mission, I'm just about positive I may need to intervine. But first I'll see how Sasuke handles the tests, I think the Pandora there is smarter than he looks."

((@ manify: Sorry. I haven't seen much Naruto, ever... I'm at the part where Naruto is fighting Garra after the Chunnin exams...

@ Saskura: it's an "A" at the end not a "O".))

"Silly Uchilla." The clone let the kunai hit its self. "I am simply wood. A Kunai won't do much but give me weaponry." He pulled it out and chucked it at a clone. (Dragon, Tiger, Ox) "Shurikin Shadow Clone Jutsu." The shurikin split in thousands of pieces. At least 3 going to each clone. (Boar, Dog, Serpent) "Water style: Southern Wave Jutsu." A wave covered the clone and protected it from the fireball attack. He floated back to the top. (Boar, Dog, Dragon, Ox, Serpent, Horse) "Wind Style: Hyper Gust Jutsu." The trees started to rattle and you can see branches fly at Kagome. If this hit her, it would slam her into the ground with derbies on her.

A hawk cried above the seemingly deserted village. Sasuke's eyes were drawn upwards. The winged creature circled slowly above thier heads. However, as his eyes met its, a sudden realization must have entered the beast's mind, for it stopped itself in midair and angled its body downwards into a dive.
"They know we're here." Sasuke murmured as he held the kunai back and threw it towards the hawk. The bird's momentum carried it forward into the blade, and it fell to the ground, dead.

((when u type in colourless, is that a different character? cuz it confued me now,and BTW u dun need to tell us the seals u use on EVERY ninjutsu you use, it gets annoying to read at some point))
Kakashi stepped inand placed his hand on Kakoratas shoulder "Okay, that's far enough, summong jutsu is asfar as I willlet you to go in battle, summoning animals are not tools, you have to remember they're just like us humans, you must use their aid in the proper times when you REALLY need them. As far as using ninjutsus it's fine by me as long as I see nobody is hurt too badly, send your dragon back and continue if you wish to."

((Oh that's my bad... Colorless is the main character, while Brown is the clone. And I like to do the hand signs because it makes it seem more real.))

"All right Kakashi. I'll call it off." Kakorata reached into his pocket and grabbed a kunai with a explosion tag on it. He threw it at teh clone and it exploded. Namndo walked over to Kakorata.

((I'll use green for the dragon...))

"Well, since it was still you that summoned me, what do you need?"
"I simply ask that you look over my students. If ANYTHING happens, that is over there limit. I want you to step in and help."
"Consider it done." With that Namndo Waved bye to Kakorata, Kakashi, and Kagome, to go and protect Ryo, Sasuke, and Yumiko.
"Kagome, I'm sorry I had to cut that short. You really are skilled. I look forward to seeing you compete in the Chunnin Exams."

((There are a lot of "K" going on...))

Yumiko was walking down the alley way with her team mates, when she suddlenly turned to slice the air behind her with her claws, severing the head off a python that was slithering down behind her.

'So it starts,' the Minato-clone thought to himself, 'I like that Pandora kid's style though, he is so far the only one who hasn't exhausted any weapons or energy, except the little it takes to maintain his camoflauge.' "Itachi-kun, can you keep an eye on the leader for me? We'll need to be able to prepare ourselves if we want to defend Team 1." With that the clone poofed out of existence.

When the clone disspelled itself, its knowledge was instantly transmitted to the real Minato, his eyes glazed over for a bit then he looked to Naruto and Yaruno each in turn, "Sorry you two, something came up, I need to take my leave of you for now, I'll be sure to find you both when I am finished." He turned his back on the two and performed the Yellow Flash jutsu to get to where he'd left the Itachi-clone back at the village, all the while, preparing himself for the inevitable fight with genjutsu user.
