Welcome to Gaia! ::

All the boxes were done now, and so she just needed to carry one what ever didn't suit being in a box, or needed to go into a bag. How awkward it was all going to be, Rinkou was definitely not aware of. But she never really thought about it, all she needed to do was carry stuff, one at a time if need be, but the job would be done. She stumbled around the objects, as she carried some, one fell down halfway, but she got... one object to the wagon. It was okay, she still got something there in one trip. It was alright, she was going good, there was no stopping now.

Rinkou was nearly done, there were just three more things to carry, but she decided to leave the big one till last, and carry the smaller two now. They were quite easy to do, and she just made sure that she was watching where she was going, after that time she tripped. It was still playing on her mind that she actually tripped over, but it wasn't like she was perfect. She may have been apart of some awesome clan by blood, but she didn't care, they were no more important then anyone else. They were just assholes from what she was gathering with all the looks she got in the village all her life. She definitely didn't want to know them. She placed the objects onto the wagon as she ended her thoughts, and went back for the last thing.

((New day, everything restored ^^))

Miyako waved off the villagers as they went. Honestly she was glad to be away from the place. All the creepy things that had happened there had made her edgy all night. She did get decent sleep, but she had woken up a few times. It was nice being able to bathe and wash the dirt from her clothes. She had also washed her own clothes! Mom would have been proud of that one... Everything smelled fresh and clean, even her hair. She had put on her black hat on goggles on the top of her head, which she had carried around in her puppet repair kit. Purses were too girly, so the pouch was perfect for carrying her things. The food was delectable and she couldn't get enough of it. What she was really happy about though, was the thanks the Otokage had given them for their outstanding work. It was like a dream come true. She walked up to Mikito, "So.... how far do we got left? Anything you can teach us before we get there?" She wished she could learn the Vibrating Sound Drill, but she didn't have the right equipment, nor the skill to learn it yet.

Mikito gave a slight nod, the envoy carrying along it's path in no particular hurry as they moved down the road, the country side around them rather pleasant. "Hn," Mikito gave a slightly gruff smile. "Geez...you kids remind me of..." she thought better of it, apparently, merely shaking his head and going on. "Well, whatever. I figured you might want a rest after your little party last night...and I don't mean the actual party." he hinted, hands in the pockets of his coat. "But if you kids are up for it, I suppose I could give you some help on your training. From what I've seen, your four, are about genin level." As he pointed to Urza, Kina, Miyako, and Alucard in turn, Mido slumped looking disappointed, while Yokijo didn't at all seem bothered. It wasn't until one realized that the boy probably considered himself FAR above Genin level that this made sense. "You just need a bit of polish and I don't see why you couldn't graduate right away." he looked on ahead. "well, that and master the basic jutsu." he lifted a brow at them. "But jutsu isn't work for the road. We'll work that out when we hit the port if we have time, maybe on the ship on the way over to mist. What you all should probably work on right now, is whatever if it you think would be most useful in a fight for your particular style of fighting."



Kina lifted an eyebrow. "You think that maybe something like last night could happen again?"

Mikito shook his head. "Naw, I ain't gonna let you rugrats out of my sight from now on. From the sound of things Ryousei actually likes you, and that's almost as bad as Kyojin liking you." Mikito gave an odd twitch. "Creepy B******...er," he looked at all the impressionable kids looking up to him. "Jerk. Anyway, you all all can train as you like as we go along. It'll be good to keep the blood moving, and I'll over see you. Should help things along."


((A make a few large count posts to crank up your stats a bit. Mikito bonus +5 Just to get us to Yuu so that it seems like time's passed.))

Urza couldn't believe what she had just heard. Ready for genin? She didn't know the first thing about being a ninja, and other than having a mean right hook she wasn't really all the useful. She still had too much to learn before she took on that task! Urza sighed looking troubled as she looked out across the road ahead. If he thought they were ready, maybe they were. But he was right, that did need to master the jutsu first. And who knows, maybe by the time she mastered the jutsu's she would be ready for that life. But for now Urza had to focus on what she knew. And if he wanted them training in what would help them most in their particular style, than she would have to figure out how to craft a pair of shields.

Urza thought about the very basics she would need to forge a shield. The would need the base components, a forge, and some forging tools. She wondered where she would find these things at. She was sure her father had some of the required materials back at the Chantry, but that did very little good for her on her journey now. Urza thought about the money they had received from the villagers, she doubted it would be enough to by her the steel for one shield, let alone two. Urza put her hands on her hip and bumped the hilt of her sword. Urza's eyes opened. She could sell it... No doubt it was a rare commodity to have knight weapons here in the east.

Urza decided she would worry about the money issue later. She knew she needed the materials. But how much of what would she need? She would need plenty of steel for the mass, a bit of copper for design, some leather to strap it to her arms, and overall a lot more than she currently had on her. Urza sighed, it seemed the forging these pieces would not only be a matter of knowing how, but also a matter of financial balancing. Urza was no math wizard, but if she was going to try and do this she would need to learn to be, and quick.

Urza thought about all the costs that went into smithing a piece of armor. No doubt a shield would require less delicate work, but more work on mass. She would need to make sure she was strong enough to tote around the materials and to shape the shield. She would have to make sure the numbers were correct on the balancing or the whole thing would be a waste of time. Urza scratched her head as she tried to crunch the numbers, and when she was finally done with her mental math she was not pleased. She had a lot to figure out before she was ready to set steel to the furnace.

Urza thought about how the mold would have to be shaped to allow for both quick strong punches, and natural flowing defense. The design she came up with in her head was to form it sort of like an extended buckler. It would strap to her forearm and be large enough to provide coverage, and long enough that it could be used for bashing in the unrighteous. Urza wished now more than ever she had a sketch book like Miyako's so she could work out a basic design on paper and than do the number crunch on paper instead of trying to do it in her head. Urza's poor math ability wasn't helping either. Maybe if she collaborated with Miyako they would be able to work something out.

Urza looked over to Miyako, but she seemed lost in her own intellectual adventures. She though it best not to interrupt and instead carried on with her own train of thought. Urza figured out what stuff she needed, and she had a basic idea of how much. She had no idea what the costs for materials were and how they differed from place to place so it was not good worrying about that until it became an actual issue. Urza instead focused on what the shield would look like. Designing it out in her mind. With any luck she would be pretty close to spot on.

Urza had seen the shield of a few other guards in time passed. They were usually more narrow the a regular shield, Urza assumed that was so they weren't blocky and awkward when trying to make an offensive. Urza pictured the shape in her mind, and tried to indentify where on that shape the balance points would lay. Urza had a pretty good idea of what she was going for but until she ran the full script and forged one it was all guess work for the young girl. Urza wished she had payed more attention to her dad when he was crafting items, maybe she could have picked up a trick or two.

Urza's eyes popped open. Maybe thats it! She thought to herself, Maybe if I think back to when I watched my dad work I can remember how he did things! Urza furrowed her brow as she started delving deep into her thoughts. Urza had now formed the basic construct in her mind. She had an idea of where the balance points would be, and she had a picture of the final outcome. Now she just had to hold on to that memory so she could bring it out later If Urza could just willfully recall the idea when she had some paper she could write down her preliminary thoughts and not lose to much of it.

Urza tried to remain focused on her idea, but she found the walk to be tedious and her mind grew fuzzy. It wasn't long before she was thinking about other things. Where were they going? She knew the name, and she knew it was east, but she had no idea where they were actually going. What would it be like when they got there? Urza had no clue how the climate systems worked in this part of the world, and therefore she had no idea if she should be braced for an arctic wasteland or not. Lastly she didn't know who they were meeting. Urza had heard they were meeting a ship from the land they were headed to. But past that Urza hadn't the foggiest.

Urza quickly caught her mind wondering and rectified the situation. If she just kept thinking about the shields over and over perhaps it would become infused to her brain and when she needed the information it would come forth just like a second nature. It probably didn't hurt to think about it to much, after all perhaps Urza could come up with some crazy idea to revolutionize the way she fought. Not likely, but after last night Urza couldn't count anything in this world as being to crazy.

Urza used all of her strength to ingrain her vision into her mind. It floated in her brain like a skimatic ready to be engineered by a set of skillful hands... Her hands. Urza smiled picturing it now. Urza the greatest blacksmith that ever lived! Maybe she didn't need to be strong, maybe she just had to be smart enough to build a wall that could withstand anything. The idea seemed a bit ridiculous to the girl at first, but the more she let it linger on her brain, the more she wanted to make it a reality. She knew that it would never been however, and that she would have to continue physically building herself so that she could take on whatever the world threw at her. And armed with an idea for some new shields, she felt ready to hold back any force that tried to blight her or her allies.
