Senritsu appeared around the corner but quickly ended her path of walking as she beheld the sight of two tall figures arguing. She didn't even bother getting any closer, she could hear perfectly right where she was. Leaning against the wall, she crossed her arms over her chest and put her head to the wall as well. People were so interesting to watch here, she enjoyed it so much she tried to stop and people-watch whenever she could. The green eyed girl hadn't seen a good fight between adults in a rather long time. Her eyes wandered for a moment, over the figures around them. A much smaller child, who seemed to look a lot like the man the woman was arguing with, a small black animal that the girl seemed to be with, a hyperactive girl and a strange animal seeming to be her friend, along with a boy. Nothing she wasn't used to already, and she'd need to be going to the academy soon so she wasn't any later than she needed. It was around noon and she'd still need to introduce herself to the teacher at the academy. She'd be returning to her normal skipping routine but still, she needed to make herself present to him or her at least. Sighing, as soon as the fight seemed to be over, she returned to her walking and finished her jouney to the school. She was late enough as it was and had to hurry up. Perhaps she'd go around and see who else was willing to accompany her along the way. Maybe there's another skipper around here, if so, she'd find them and perhaps get a little fun out of it. Besides that, she needed some candy. Then again, she stopped. Turning her head around to the direction of the sea, she smirked. Why even bother with school at all today? She was late as it was and it wouldn't do her any good to be yelled at by some man who wasn't even her father. Flipping her direction, she headed towards the sea, at least there she could find something to do, or see if there were any cute guys to check out!

Izumi turned her face to look at the person who had just appearently introduced herself to her. She bowed and spoke in a hurry, so her attention wasn't away from Dhan too long. She didn't have a clue what he'd do if he saw her seeming to ignore him. "Meho, Izumi, this is Ai." The small dark-skinned child said, looking down at Ai, still hiding behind her leg, for a moment before whiping her head back to Dhan as his voice interupted her thoughts. She listened to him and kept eye contact as much as she could without letting her eyes shiver or quake. The child could do nothing more but nod to the man as he spoke, and bowed to him when he told her to get going. She didn't even get back up straight before the sound of Natamo's voice came upon her. Izumi backed up, quickly picking up Ai into her arms so she could keep track of her, unsure as to what Natamo and Dhan would do now. Izumi had to cover her mouth to keep from giggling at her last little remark to him. When Natamo remarked about Ai, the Meho child couldn't help but look down at the creature in question with a little smile. Her smile was short-lived though, Dhan's voice was enough to tear the smile from her lips as it was, but the words he spoke, made it further impossible for her to even fake a smile.
He was right...She was a Meho, nothing more than someone people hated for no reason at all. The blue eyed girl was already cast out from her own family, and she knew she'd probably be cast out from this place as well. Shinichi, just as Dhan had said, wouldn't care... The way he acted when he first found her last name to be Meho was proof enough of that. Even if he was relatively nice to her, seemingly more so than to the other children in the Academy, perhaps he saw her as merely a weak link that could get him closer to this man? The slap snapped Izumi from her trance and forced her eyes up to see that Natamo had laid a hand on her Dhan. The child's jaw nearly dropped at the sight of it all. The woman had such a strong spirit to ever go against what Dhan says! Izumi couldn't help but wish to have that sort of strength when she was older. She couldn't ever imagine going against Dhan's wishes, he could definetely kill her with one finger if he wished to. With that, she turned on her heals and ran towards the weapon's shop he's spoken of earlier.

It was a good thing the two young girls had left, because otherwise they would have been caught in the crossfire of what happend next... Dhan's control over his emotions was minimal and that limit was reached. She had an outburst like that against him and she expected to just walk away? Unlikely. Dhan's chakra poured through his body and out through his feet into the snow he was standing on. Drawing all the moisture out until he was surrounded by floating orbs of chakra infused water. With a quick succession of hand seals the water suddenly froze into elongated needles and with a bloody roar the deadly spears shot outwards from Dhan, but not only towards Natamo. They flew out in an arc around him, hitting buildings and civilians alike while a small cluster flew towards Natamo. This was purely an outburst and many villagers would suffer from it and Natamo's warning was only his roar.
There were a handful of villagers around when Dhan exploded and unfortunately for them they had no way of avoiding his deadly assault. Innocent victims caught in the crossfire. Screams arose as the few unfortunate enough to be in range were hit, their flesh viciously assaulted by the icy needles was more than any of them could take. The villagers collapsed, still breathing some barely able to. One even still screaming from the pain but all of them laying there with the deadly projectiles protruding from their bodies, refusing to melt away in the chilly winter air.
Frozen Water Needles of Death
By sending the user's charka into a pool of water, it can make the water stir and begin to pull water droplets from its surface, like rain falling up. The water droplets are then sent flying through the air at the opponent. As the air shapes them into the needles, the user's chakra uses that air to freeze the droplets into ice needles which melt after penetrating their targets skin.
Cp Cost: 50 + 5 per needle
Damage: 8 to 13 + Chakra Mod + Ninjutsu Bonus
Requirements: Ice Affinity, Ninjutsu 30, Control 20, Throwing 20
Special: Can do up to 5 needles per dice.
Avoid: Ninjutsu or Dodge
Ice needles (x5) 1d20 + ninjutsu 215 = 227
Ice needles (x5) 1d20 + ninjutsu 215 = 216
Ice needles (x5) 1d20 + ninjutsu 215 = 227

Natamo saw the movements before she even realized it, and manage to keep out of the way of all of his badly aimed ice needles ... apparently the Meho were not known for their skill in ninjutsu. As powerful as that attack was, Natamo had no issue avoiding it.
The rest of the villagers, however, were not so lucky. Natamo surveyed the damage, cringing. This was her fault, for taunting the idiot, knowing he wasn't stable enough to keep his temper. She scowled, her eyes smoldering and darkening. She turned her quiet rage on Dhan, eyes narrowed and hands poised - she wasn't joking anymore, and that much was obvious. She lifted her hand palm up, the international symbol for 'come get some', and without waiting, she quietly calculated her plan. Had she had a partner, this would be the perfect time to show Dhan just how much stronger she was than he thought. For now, she would have to do it alone, and she'd have to go hard.

Natamo's hands blurred as a cloud of smoke covered her trail - having successfully dodged, she had a small advantage and she had to take advantage of it. If it worked the way she wanted to, Natamo would grab onto Dhan's feet and pull his a** underground, trapping him so that she would be able to finally teach him a lesson in her own kind of power - it may not have been brute force, but damn, the man got on her nerves. Was it necessary to harm the village? Was it? Natamo's rage smoldered as she continued to be silent, and she prayed that the brute wouldn't catch onto what she was doing, or she would probably die right here, and her body would be another one that would have to be cleaned up with the rest of the villagers. She already had the plan of action in mind - if she caught Dhan, she would teach him how badly her whip really stung. Of course, he didn't have his sword, so it was a little bit of an unfair fight...but he had involved the villagers. Untrained villagers. It wasn't the time to fight fair, she would fight dirty...like him.
The attack was to be executed flawlessly - Natamo used the earth to tunnel underground, and she would grab Dhan's ankles, pulling his a** down under into the hole in the earth. Easy enough - he would be in the ground up past his shoulders, with just his barbaric head showing. Maybe Natamo would kick him a few times...hm...not a bad idea...
In any case, afterwards, Natamo pulled her whip from her waist and snapped it a few times, catching Dhan smartly on the tip of his ear. She snarled down at him silently, the expression on her face easy as hell to read: she was beyond pissed, and she loathed the man before her.
19 + Hide[115] --> 134
Earth Style: Groundhog Technique Decapitation [Doton: Shinjū Zanshu no Jutsu]
The user, emerging from the ground below the target area, pulls down (or possibly swaps places with) the opponent so that only their head is above ground. This technique is usually used to surprise the opponent when they are clueless to your where abouts. You must successfully dodge an attack to hide underground afterwards. A cloud of smoke will cover your trails when you dodge.
Damage: Critical Damage done to target while being held in ground. [x2]
Requirement: Ninjutsu 25, Grapple 15, Sneak Attack 10, Earth Affinity
Avoid: Dodge or Fortitude roll.
Special: 1d20 + Ninjutsu vs 1d20 + Detect to perform the technique correctly. 1d20 + Grapple + Chakra Mod + Sneak Attack to pull target under vs 1d20 + Escape. The DC to continue to try and escape is the grapple roll total - Sneak attack.

Izumi struggled a bit to carry Dhan's weapon. She'd heard a lot about it from her family's talks to eachother before she left. She'd heard of the man being taken away from the island but it wasn't like she'd ever really paid attention to where it was he had gone to, if that information was even circulated around the island. Izumi was always too busy trying to do something to listen. The tiny bodied Meho child suddenly winced, feeling a sharp pain in her arm. Appearently she'd been careless and the blade barely scratched at her upper arm. It had begun to bleed, but soon slowed and solidified with the help of the cold air. She sighed, making a note to watch where the blade of the weapon was in coordination with her body and limbs. Her blue eyes looked up to see Ai up ahead of her causing trouble with a few villagers. Growling and snarling at anyone who came near to pet the tiny animal. "Ai, be good!" Izumi yelled to the little red eyed demon wolf who turned and yelped at her before strutting forward. Izumi giggled and continued to lug the sword towards the shoreline where the shack Dhan had told her about should be.

Izumi sighed, making sure to keep an eye on the wandering Ai who still seemed to have a little bit of a temperment problem. Izumi would have to show Ai how to be kinder to people instead of immidiately being so hostile! Perhaps she should address that Natamo woman later on to get a little help. She did say that she'd be training herself and Ai sooner or later. Her smile brightened as she thought about it. Then, in the distance, she heard bells. Could it be the Academy bells? If so, she'd better hurry! Izumi set off to as much of a run as she possibly could without letting the heavy weapon of Dhan's touch the ground. She already had to hold it with two hands due to it's pure weight, but she couldn't allow it to touch the ground. If it did, she didn't know what Dhan's reaction might be to his sword ever touching it! Even now, she was surprised he'd ordered her to go and fetch it? The little Meho knew it wasn't trust or family bond, but the fact he was higher in the hierarchy than her. She really didn't have a choice in the matter. When Meho, Dhan would tell her to do something, she had no choice but to accept it and do as told. Sighing, her pace slowed. If only there was a Meho here on the island who was nice like her, or strong willed like Shinichi or Natamo.

The aftermath of Dhan's outburst of blind rage left him extremely vulnerable. By the time he had regained his senses it was too late, Natamo had disappeared. Run away? No... Before he had the chance to continue his thought of if she'd fled or what she'd done the snow and ground had collapsed underneath him, more than that. He was gripped and pulled down into the depths of the which was apparently just far enough to leave his head exposed. Dhan exploded in rage once more. ROARING in anger! It was all he could do now that Natamo had trapped him. " YOU BI- " He was cut off by the bite of the whip at his head. It stung as the tips of the whip cut at his ear, taking a couple of neat little notches out of it He hissed from the sting, he'd had worse, he knew pain well. Another scar, another battle. He'd give Natamo way more than that when he got out, she'd join his little collection. She'd pay for what she had done.

Natamo plopped down on the ground next to Dhan, rolling her whip up and keeping her moderately loose hold on the dirt around the man. She patted his messy hair lightly, extremely careful to keep her hands out of his reach. "Dhan, I'm gonna talk, and you're gonna listen. One, cause you don't have a choice, and two....ok well, basically you're stuck there til I let you go. And I'm not letting you go til you look around." Natamo rolled her eyes, sucked up her pride and mule-headedness, and looked down at his head. "The people here are not the clan of Meho that you fight with, Dhan. This island doesn't train everyone to the level you seem to train your own warriors. You could leave...Why are you here? Is killing off the whole island really that essential to your life? I'm sure you could ransack the entire Fire Country and still go strong. Why this island? Why their home? Farmers, villagers - a handful of shinobi following a sexually frustrated ANBU...a bunch of animals." Natamo furrowed her brow, thinking hard. Was he even after the whole island? "Maybe you're looking for someone...but that little girl was the only Meho here, Izumi no? And you don't like her anyway, the way you order her around." Natamo sighed and stretched, still a moderately safe distance from Dhan's teeth. No telling what he would try to get out of his little hell hole...and she'd keep him in there as long as possible.

Struggle was useless but he would still try... This was exactly the reason he hated Shinobi, all their dirty tricks. He had started out as a warrior, a much simpler way of fighting without all this jutsu but outside of his island these abilities were all to common, he tried to adapt, but he was always the warrior, the beserker and anyone that knew that also knew his weakness. He struggled even more that Natamo now seemed bent on giving him a lecture. It was still hopeless... "I'm not going to listen to your dribble... I think your bleeding heart is starting to drip on me! " He mocked before crying out in anger and struggling once again. " You idiot... You simple little animal keeper. YOU THINK THIS WAS ME TRYING TO KILL VILLAGERS?! HAH!" He laughed to himself before continuing. " Worthless lumps of flesh caught in the crossfire. They were corpses since the day they were born. No future, nothing. Just a simple pathetic life. No I wouldn't go out of my way to harm these idiots. They're already suffering such a slow pitiful death! Who's going to remember them huh? Who's going to remember the women crying out in pain from a stray shot when beast tamer and the cannibal fought... Or rather when the beast tamer was to afraid to fight. BAH!" He spat at Natamo, equally disgusted and amused by her.

"Afraid to fight...? Dhan...you're stuck in the ground. Shut up," she snorted, shaking her head. She would remember, she had a good memory like that. And like she had known, Dhan didn't give a rat's a** about anything. She sat quietly, mulling over her thoughts, her whip in her hands as she rolled it. She was pensive, lazy - and Dhan was half right. She was afraid to fight, but not because she would lose. There would be casualties and the villagers were innocent. She bit her lip, then rose, sighing and dusting herself before leaving the man to his own devices. She didn't know what to do, but wandering would be better than this man's verbal abuse. Starting her own aimless walk out of the village, she, for once, showed no sign of compassion. She did not stop to tend to the villagers, nor did she look their way. This was technically not her home - these were not her people, not her pack. She sighed and muttered to herself, "Your aim sucks."

With the earth around him no longer being constricted by Natamo's chakra he was free to pull himself out. The ground crumbled into the hole as Dhan pulled himself free, leaving a big pot hole in the middle of the village. Groaning as he reached up to feel at his ear, the little bites taken out by the whip were covered in blood that had quickly coagulated in the frost. His body felt equally as frozen from being buried in the cold earth but that mattered not. "Natamo..." He muttered with more than a bit of spite as he looked around, she was long gone. Revenge would wait. He was snapped back to reality by the moans of someone nearby. He turned to see them reaching up to the air and holding their neck with their other hand, the needle had struck them right in the throat. Dhan stood over them with a look of disgust on his face. He turned the villagers head to the side with his foot and then suddenly slammed the same foot down on the side of their neck. With a sickening crack and a slow gurgle the life drained out of the villager and his hand dropped to his side. A quick glance around showed a further four unmoving, most definitely dead and another eight barely holding on to life. They were strewn about the street like some sort of battle zone all of them though still had the distinctive ice needles sticking out from somewhere. Normally they would have melted away but in this weather they would stay intact for a while. The signs of his guilt embedded in the flesh of the innocent.

Like a bloodhound, Shinichi smelled the acrid scent of blood from way across the village. He stared at his team for a second, then hissed, "Stay out of sight! There's been an attack. Head to the library and stay indoors until I give you the clear." The glare he gave the two warned them that there would be dire consequences for disobeying them when there was real danger. Even if they died, he would take it out on their bodies to ensure they would be forced to wander the earth endlessly haunting disobedient children. With a quick nod, Shinichi rushed off towards the bloodbath as fast as he could. The ANBU's silent footsteps rushed towards a lone standing figure besides the water fountain, one that was staggering from what appeared to be an earth jutsu just recently used. Shinichi's eye caught a deep hole that radiated strongly with chakra, confirming his fear. There had been a battle and this figure had gotten injured. As he got closer, Shinichi realized his worst fears. Bodies lay around, spread out as if struck by a hurricane, some moaning, others wailing pitifully on their last breath. They screamed for their families, for forgiveness, for mercy from the reaper that was cruelly stalling to collect their tainted souls. Five were dead, for he could not hear a heartbeat from their motionless body, while eight cried out, tears falling from their faces as they realized the inevitability of death. What hurt Shinichi even beyond seeing so many pained familiar faces was that he couldn't do anything. Still running, his eyes widened upon passing by a damaged body. Ice needles... and Tomoko was on vacation so... Oh god.
"YOU SOULLESS MONSTER!" Shinichi yelled as the sole of his foot connected with the back of Dhan's head in a roundhouse kick. The ANBU used his other foot to propel himself forwards at an alarming pace, the veins bursting from his neck in utter fury. Without taking so much as breather, he caught the Meho's head in hand and slammed it against the ground, letting the skull drag for about a metre. Leaning down, Shinich whispered with ragged breaths in Dhan's ear, not because he was tired, but rather because even he had not anticipated that Dhan would kill so many in cold blood, "Why did you do it? WHY? ANSWER ME!" He was yelling so loud that everybody in the nearby vicinity could hear, but the man didn't care. The more people around to witness this demon's execution, the better.

The impact to the back of the skull snapped him back to reality only for a moment before pushing him over the edge again. He was easily snatched up by the fury of the Kage as he sought to introduce Dhan's face to the ground. When he was finally pulled back up from the agonizing drag, his face bloodied from the impact and drag would suggest a large amount of pain, the grin on his face said otherwise. " Hah... Hah... You make it sound like I went out of my way to kill these fools? Collateral damage oh Vicious leader of ours..." He chuckled through the blood in his mouth. He was clearly injured and in pain but the mental instability and experience of battle helped push that to the back of his mind. " I wouldn't waste my time on them. " He spat the blood out of his mouth, in a show of disgust at the useless villagers. He was completely at Shinichi's mercy and yet he was playing with him. The madman wanted to see just how alike he and Shinichi were.
