Luckilly he didn't seem to notice, and she gripped his hand tight as the boy led the way. "I dooo! It better be good, shortstuff." She teased as trying to regain her composure on the way to the restaurant.

"NooOo... because i'm the walking sprig of lavendar!ย But I like wisteria better....." She couldn't really object since the vanilla scented lies composed of perfumes and candles that she knew were absolute garbage. Better vanilla-like scents were found in honeysuckels and the highly sought-after vanilla bean was a treat just for cooking and only savored as so. Three beans don't seem to make for a lasting worthwhile arouma. "Fiiiiiine. Citrus." She was really caught up in the moment of being taken in her husband's arms. The explicit need to be plainly not let go, as she began to instead wedge her arms under his coat, would have came to no surprise to her if she noticed. It was from this point that she made out another uncalculated remark. A compliment, at the very least, but a hair-raising vibe came with his candied words. It was too soon to pass any judgement and she tried to assure herself that one spying on her probably wasn't all that bad if he came out to talk to her, yeah?? Although her angle was from the skewed perspective of Shiro's personal space bubble so her ability to completely register the dancer's appearance was touched, a little. Only half the story unfolding about the mystical dancer was visible with the need to turn her head one side to another with each exchange between the dancer and a second voice that sounds familiar (however just barely, vaguely) yet reassuring. "Toso's got this." In the fuss came damage to a window and it led one of Toso's chromatic comrades out in pursuit. A little awkward to witness and have not either of the reunited lovebirds respond. Either she was feeling the chill of guilt and negligence or some draft really just whisked past her. Hard to tell just what anything or any feeling was what when too absorbed in just being in love. Unki's hands held the other's wrists and she decided to pull away from her obvious cling. "You should probably carry me away now. Literally. Anymore rifts in the moment and it's gonna' be a flop. "

He had let people wield Shoyaku before- this child was by no means special on account of his interest in the blade. It was, after all, the spear that had ended the war with the UHV. So he wasn't surprised when the kid was a little awestruck at beholding the physical representation of his power. What he was surprise by was that slowly, so slowly Belamos hardly noticed, he could feel the power of the spear, and by extension Belamos's own power, being drained into Takashi's own body. As if in response to him noticing the action, the flames on his spear suddenly doubled in size, consuming the boy in a torrent of spinning fire. Yet, the flames still did not harm him. Instead they seemed to be seeping into his skin- absorbed into his being as his body became accustomed to his power. Belamos, slightly panicked by the sight, extended his hand out. As soon as he did his spear flew out of the boy's grasp and back to his own. Still...he could feel the difference. While not very much, this child had taken a small fraction of his own power through his contact with the weapon. While it was unlikely that this is what Takashi intended, the unintentional transference seemed to anger Belamos "How-...how are you still alive?" Others who had tried to take his power before- all had failed. The contents of a star were not so easily absorbed and yet this boy had done it on accident "Who are you?" He said, muttering now only to himself as the wheels of his imagination began to turn.
Shinji stepped through the doors of the dojo and peered around. A few people were present, but as long as he kept his head down it wouldn't pose a problem. In one hand, he was carrying a book bound in black leather with the insignia of the Ketsueki clan. Within its pages was information he would need to begin learning the bloodline techniques created by his ancestors. In the other hand, he held his scythe, Yuugure, resting it against his shoulder with the blade facing the ground. The snaith, or handle in other terms, was grotesquely unique compared to normal scythes. It appeared to be in the shape of a human spine, complete with protrusions that were eerily similar to the vertebrae that lined the spinal cord. Atop the snaith, connected to the pitch black blade was something akin to a mutated bird skull.
He moved quietly to one of the corners of the building that didn't have anyone occupying the immediate space around it and rested the weapon against the wall. The dojo was a bit too small for Shinji to be practicing with his weapon. Even if he always brought it with him whenever he was intending to train, tight spaces were an obstacle. Shinji's goal today was to try and practice his Suijutsu, and read up on his bloodline whenever he needed to rest. After all, he needed to learn more about water release before he would be able to manipulate his blood.
Before he set the book down beside Yuugure, Shinji brushed his hand over the cover, tracing the insignia etched into the leather. He hated the way that his clan had kept him from socializing. He didn't have friends, he rarely spoke to anyone other than his clan, and he felt awkward around others. However, he still had a sense of pride in his lineage. He had decided long ago that he would master his kekkei genkai, but only because that would help him get strong enough to protect the village. Arashigakure was his home. His family resided here, his childhood was spent here. He wanted to be able to help keep the village safe, but at his current level he wasn't very capable of helping. He could throw rocks, fight with his scythe, but he didn't have any jutsu in his arsenal that would be useful in the midst of war.
Shinji bent down and set the book beside his weapon. When he stood back up, he raised his arms over his head and stretched. There was a soft series of popping sounds as his arched his spine back slightly. He readied himself and put his hands together, forming a hand seal to start focusing his chakra. Shinji closed his eyes, remembering some of the tips his family had given when he mentioned that he would be practicing Suiton. They didn't elaborate on any of the stronger techniques, but seeing as he needed to start basic, they explained how he should go about learning the first technique that he would have to learn in order to further his training into the water release.
'Clear your mind, let the tension leave your body. Imagine your chakra flowing like a stream. Once you are ready, push it outward, into the air around you, then reach out and condense it into your hand.'
Shinji repeated their instructions in his mind a few times before he gave it a try. His chakra bent to his will, pulsing outward for a moment before he reached out and tried to collect it in his hand. He kept his eyes closed to focus, but when he didn't feel any water, he dropped his hand and sighed. A dud. The genin sat down and thought about what he had done wrong. He had followed their instructions to a "T." Maybe there was something he wasn't understanding.
He reached back and grabbed the book he had brought with him, hoping that there might be something in there that he could use to better his understanding of the basics. It was fairly vague. Mostly information regarding coagulation and molding the users blood, but there was something that peaked his interest. One line that might have just been the secret to help Shinji with his Suiton training. When learning techniques such as Chi Pa-ji or Chi-Yuketsu, the most important thing to remember is that you should always place your main focus on sensing the chakra flowing through your blood. In order for you to...
At this point he stopped reading and an idea sprang into his head. The Ketsueki clan's kekkei genkai allowed them to use chakra to manipulate their blood. Shinji knew that his clan were able to feel the chakra being channeled into their blood, but he wondered if the reverse was true. He closed his eyes again, gathering more chakra and repeating the process that he had gone through before. However, this time he did something different.
As he relaxed his body, he focused on the blood flowing through his veins, what it felt like. He tried to tap into the innate powers of his clan that gave them such a special connection with their blood. He started to notice something was different this time around. It wasn't just his body feeling his chakra, he could feel his chakra with his blood. Shinji let this sensation wash over him as he cleared his mind. When he reached out with his chakra and started to condense it this time, he felt a drop of water. Then another. After a few moments he had gathered a small amount of water in the palm of his hand. He stopped and smiled to himself. It wasn't much, but a small victory was still a victory.
He flicked the water out of his hand onto the ground, then stood and readied himself again. This time, Shinji was going to see how much water he could gather. He repeated the process. When it came time to pull his chakra together, he let it pool on the ground in front of him instead of in his hand. If he was stress-testing this ability, it was better to gather it all around him rather than on the small surface that was his palm. After his chakra had stopped condensing, he opened his eyes to see the puddle he had left. Only about a gallon or so of water. It wasn't impressive by any means, but it was enough to satisfy Shinji.
Before he sat down to rest, he performed a few hand seals and connected his chakra to the water he had produced. He could feel his chakra subjugating the water. Shinji stared at the water, willing it to become perfectly still in order to produce a reflection. At first, nothing. A few moments later, just as he was about to give up, he noticed a slight ripple shake the surface of the water. As it spread, his face became clear on the puddle. Another small victory. The Water Mirror Technique wasn't particularly useful, as he saw it, but maybe it would come in handy every once in a while. At least he knew he could do it. It would still require more practice before he would master it, but the purpose of his training today was to try and learn the basics. As Shinji sat back down to rest, he felt a sense of accomplishment.
As Takashi continued to hold Shoyaku, the energy eminating from the spear continued to pour out into him. Suddenly, the flames were amplified and seemed like they would consume him. "Oh crap!" he exclaimed, closing his eyes in anticipation of the extreme pain he was about to experience. Much to his surprise though, he experienced no harm, not even from the shere heat the flames were putting out. Was this a futher display of the man's power? Surely he could have given Takashi a warning before giving such a demonstration.
Feeling the spear pried from his grip, Takashi slowly opened his eyes to look at Belamos. However, rather than the air of confidence the man had been exhuming previously, he now appeared agitated. After being asked by Belamos how it was that he survived, Takashi looked at him with the most confused expression. 'Wait? Does he think I did that?' he thought, trying to decipher the man's change in mood. "What do you mean "How am I still alive"? It's your spear! Don't you control it?" he retorted, his own shocked tone matching that of Belamos.
After he had rested a moment, Shinji decided that he should try his hand at some of the more advanced Suiton techniques. Gathering water from the molecules in the air was important to know, but its practical uses were slim if you didn't know anything further. He stood and focused his chakra, running through the various hand seals for Suiton techniques that he had observed his clan members using. He didn't have enough chakra to perform most of what he had witnessed them doing, but there were a few techniques they used often when they were training that he knew weren't as taxing.
His hands moved slowly, forming the hand seals of a basic technique that the clan often used. After doing so, he moved his hand through the air in front of him, gathering water using Mizi Soujuu as he did so to accumulate the resource needed. The water formed a blade in his hand. It was crudely shaped, showing that he needed to practice to give it a better form. Roughly the size of a wakizashi, Shinji hefted the sword and performed a few mock swings to get a feel for how it would work in a combat scenario. He pursed his lips, unsatisfied with his performance of the technique. He wasn't as proficient with a sword as he was with his scythe, but he figured that eventually he could train to learn swordplay.
Being unsatisfied with his performance of the technique, Shinji let the sword dissolve, water falling onto the floor in front of him. Once again he gathered his chakra and kneaded the hand seals for the Mizu no Yaiba technique. He held his hand over the water, this time using the resource from his previous try to form the sword. The water rose up from the ground to his hand, forming another wakizashi-sized blade. This time Shinji made sure to further reinforce the blade with his chakra. This incarnation of the technique was much more akin to a blade. It wasn't as crudely shaped, but there was still room for improvement. He decided that it was enough for now, knowing that over time he would be able to control the technique better. The sword dissolved, once again dropping water to the floor.
Next was a technique that every member of his clan had learned to use at one point or another. Shinji's hands worked faster than before. He had memorized the hand seals for this technique due to the sheer amount of times he had seen it performed in his short life. "Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu." The water in front of him, as well as some water he gathered to help with the technique using Mizu Soujuu, swirled upward in a weak vortex. After it was roughly Shinji's height, the water took shape and materialized an identical clone of it's caster. He was oddly satisfied with such a small feat, both himself and the clone smiling. They reached out and high-five'd one another. Shinji waved to the clone as he undid the justu. No need to keep it active right now.
Shinji took a moment to breathe. He had just spent a lot of chakra in that short amount of time. For a Genin, at least. He wondered if he should take a moment to rest and regain some chakra, but he was on a high. So far he had learned basic mastery over some Suiton techniques, and the satisfaction made him want more. In order to get stronger, one has to be willing to work hard. The exhaustion of using up so much chakra all at once may well take hold of him, but until then he would push through and make full use of the time he had set aside to train his Suiton techniques. Shinji wracked his brain, thinking of what else he had seen the clan use before, and the various strings of hand seals he had seen them utilize. A couple stood out in his mind.
The Ketsueki spawn shook his hands, wringing out any tension they had from contorting their appendages so much in a short amount of time. He knew that, eventually, he wouldn't feel such a strain from using that many different hand formations so quickly, but at the current moment he did feel a bit of strain on his joints. He readied his chakra and stood about shoulder width apart. He began by gathering water using his chakra, then began to mold the hand seals. The water, immediately after the last seal was formed, sprang to life. It swirled around Shinji a moment before it began collecting around his back.
"Suiton, Hachi Shokushu." The liquid reacted to the command, taking form as eight arms, resembling the tentacles of the octopus. These tentacles, at first, were shaky forms that seemed to threaten to melt away at any moment, but Shinji noticed this soon enough that he reinforced them with his chakra, making their shapes rigid and sturdy. He willed these arms to bend and contort in various ways, causing them to snap outward when they stretched so that he could get a feel for how strong these arms were. Once he had a decent understanding of the technique he let the arms fall away, dissolving in a soft splash on the ground. By now he had amassed a fair amount of water, but it was quickly slipping through the cracks in the dojo floor.
He turned towards a nearby dummy that had obviously been moved to make more room a bit further away. Now for something with a bit more practical use in battle. Shinji stepped back, almost bumping into Yuugure; he was thankful that the scythe didn't tip over while he had been training. He didn't want to risk any unnecessary scrapes or scratches on the weapon. It was his prized possession after all. He shifted his footing and made a rapid series of hand gestures as he began to gather some more water using Mizu Soujuu.
Mizu Shuriken no Jutsu," he called out with a swipe of his hand through the air, almost as if he were throwing a shuriken. As he did so, water formed just beneath his hand and traveled in an arcing path tracing the path his hand had moved. At the apex of the swing, the water shot out and formed a series of liquid shuriken, spinning through the air aimed directly at the dummy. A couple of them stuck right into the chest area, while the other barely nicked the wood as they traveled. However, immediately after contact, they melted away, causing water to splash onto the floor around the construct.
'Interesting,' he thought. 'It seems they only last until they make contact. I'm sure they can be useful, but it will be tricky until I know how to use them better.' Shinji walked over to the book he had set aside and opened the back cover, revealing a pencil and a blank sheet of folded paper. He opened the page and jotted down a few notes, keeping track of some aspects of the jutsu he had been training so far, including some ideas for how he could use them later and some reminders to practice what he had learned so far at a future date in order to better his skills at using those techniques. Shinji wasn't very good with book work, but he was definitely thorough when it came to training. He wanted to be a strong and revered shinobi, one that would be useful at protecting the village that had so graciously accepted his clan many years before he was born.
โThat's the only way to protect those you want to protect.โ

Another chuckle would ring forth from the young mans lips as he gave his beloved a kiss on the forehead."True we cant both smell like lavender. Though I have to admit, citrus does sound like a good idea." Turning his attention to the scene before him he could only smile. It was so random and weird that it made him happy in a sense. Something like that never would have happened in the capital. It was so stuffy and boring there that the most entertaining thing he had done since Unki had departed was have a drinking competition with his ministers. When she spoke up about Toso being able to control this he nodded,"I am sure he does. Toso may not be the most normal of people, and to many he seems off. But behind those glasses is a mind that is sharper than a razor. Hes the only reason I am considering his proposal." Scooping her up princess style he headed for the door,"Speaking of there are things I need to inform you of, empress." He used the title with a bit of a smirk. He still was unsure how she felt about the authority she wielded if she even knew its extent. [exit with unki]

His instincts screamed at him to incinerate the boy and remove the mystery that the child posed. Thankfully for Takashi, he ignored them. He gave the kid a long, thoughtful, glare. After an uncomfortable amount of time Belamos took a deep inhale, apparantly decided on a course of action. He planted Shoyoku on the ground with all the authority of a man pronouncing the sentence of a prisoner "Somehow, boy, you absorbed a portion of my power. An infintesimally small portion, but a portion nonetheless. Until I can unravel how you did this, as well as learn how this ability will manifest, you will be my squire" His face was one of stoic resolve. He did not put this to the boy as a request but rather a proclomation. Until this was solved, Takashi would travel with, learn from and battle alongside, Belamos.

Still on edge, Takashi listened to Belamos's take on the matter. Much to his frustration though, it seemed the man didn't know what had occurred between Takashi and the spear either. The manner in which Belamos spoke to him also did little to ease Takashi's nerves. It was stern and authoritative, as if Takashi no longer had any say in the matter. "Your what?" he retorted, having no idea what a squire even was.
While Takashi was still curious about shoyoku and what had happened to him while he was holding, it seemed to him that the spear and its owner were going to be nothing but trouble for him. Thus, he resolved to get out before things escalated any further. "Look man. I don't know what's going on with you or that spear of yours but this is getting too weird to weird for me. You can keep trying to figure out what happened but I'm out." he said as he lugged his hammer up onto his shoulder. Takashi would then turn away from Belamos and begin to leave, hoping to put this whole matter behind him.
__ Kenshin was woken up by a CORE operative at dawn. He was told that Kogarashi had arrived and that every listed member of the vanguard was being personally informed. All civilians were to remain in their bunkers in the real village. He was also informed that one male haired male in white robes had already struck the fake village on the ground and was waiting at the gates by himself. He stepped out of the clinic feeling well-rested and refreshed. Kenshin found Kojiro and nodded to him as he was also informed by the operative as a vanguard member. He inhaled deeply as natural anxiety clouded over him. "Evergreen let me smite him, that I may see him slain by your righteous might." He then placed his hand on the stone that immediately relieved his anxiety during his silent prayer. Without speaking, he left the dojo in pursuit of the gates.

Personal Attributes โข Piercing Accuracy | The clansman is more proficient than his fellow clan members at striking tenketsu. One's gentle fist application allows them to reduce 1.5 times the amount of chakra spent in a jyuken strike instead of 1.25. For example, if one spends 100 chakra on a gentle fist technique, the attack robs the target of 150 instead of the 125 normal clansmen would reduce. โข Purest Lineage | The clansman's thoroughbred lineage allows them access to the Byakugan without the use of a hand seal, chakra cost, or activation. In addition, should they unlock the Tenseigan, they may have 50% less reserves to maintain it than other clan members and may also activate the Tenseigan without the use of a hand seal, chakra cost, or activation. โข Physical Prowess | The Hyuuga gains a slight increase to reflex OR speed per body rank. This totals in a supreme increase for one or a moderate increase for both at S-Rank. In addition, the user gains a single custom slot to be used exclusively for the gentle fist style and one taijutsu slot. โข Armory of Justice | Kenshin receives one free custom weapon. โข Thundering Justice | Lightning based techniques used by the Hatake are granted a concussive blast in the form of a sonic boom upon impact. This concussive blast has a range of five feet per rank of the parent technique. Those within the area of the blast have a knock-back effect applied if their body rank is lower than the parent technique. In addition, deafness is applied upon impact for two posts.
Nuibari Attributes โข Infinite Needles | While Nuibari functions perfectly fine as a long, thin blade that sits between a Jian and a Foil. It's comprised of infinite, instantly replenishing needles. If an opponent is stabbed, the blade will leave several needles inside of the opponent. It also never runs out of string either, with one at the base of the weapon, and one attached to each needle. Similarly, unhindered, the weapon always comes back when thrown for the techniques below, and can be pulled to the user free of activation via its wire so long as the nigh-invisible string is not cut. โข Thread the Needle | This skill increases the speed of the wielder moderately while Nuibari is wielded.
Discipline & Cross Class Attributes โข Blood Knight | Your bloodline techniques possess greater power, allowing them to overwhelm techniques of the same rank and preventing them from succumbing to elemental weaknesses. You can cast bloodline techniques through one-handed seals. {The Overwhelming Trait does not apply to anything above S} โข Keystone | You receive an additional 5 custom technique slots to be used only on bloodline and bloodline-related techniques. Additionally, you may create a "keystone" technique; this technique is essentially a Bloodline ninja's signature move, with power and versatility similar to a technique such as Kamui. This technique must be submitted as a custom jutsu and approved. It cannot be used to provide stats or reductions. It also does not take a custom jutsu slot. โข Specialization | If this class is taken as the first and second class, you may pick 2 of its disciplines. Additionally, bloodline cast by this specialization are cheaper in cost as determined by the users body rank. At body rank D and C costs are reduced by five[5]. At body rank B and A, costs are reduced by ten[10]. Finally at body rank S and S+ costs are reduced by fifteen[15] These reductions DO NOT stack and override their previous totals. (D+C -5, B+A -10, S beyond -15). Gain an Additional 5 Custom slots dedicated to your bloodline.

โPersevere. No matter what comes your way, you have to overcome it.โ
Shinji sighed with exhaustion. The effort he had expended over the last few minutes had caught up with him much sooner than he had expected. However, there was not getting stronger without overcoming obstacles. Rather than taking a moment to breathe, Shinji instead decided to attempt an even stronger technique. He formed a series of hand seals, first performing the Mizu Bunshin technique to create a clone of himself. The water gathered from the air around him, forming the mirror image in front of him, showing much greater control than before. He theorized that, since he had already performed a series of techniques over the short time he was in the dojo, his body had grown used to the molding of chakra into the ninjutsu he was using, causing a subconscious passive increase in the control of the techniques. Shinji did note that there was still plenty of room for improvement, as the amount of time that it took to gather the water and form the clone was still far too long. He had to get better, faster at molding his jutsu.
Once the clone was formed, the two had a brief exchange of words, resulting in nothing more than informing the clone of what Shinji was planning on doing. The clone was already aware of this, of course, but he wasnโt privey to this information yet. He knew how to use the normal clone technique, they teach it at the academy, but he wasnโt paying attention when they let the students know that the clone was also a mental copy of the caster and not just a physical construct. The clone simply nodded and stepped a few feet back, giving Shinji the room he figured he would need in order to cast the jutsu he was trying to perform. He started with the hand seals, using his chakra to gather water as he did so. At this point he was unaware that he had the ability to perform Suiton techniques without needing hand seals due to his clanโs unique kekkei genkai, and he assumed that Mizu Soujuu was the only technique that was able to be cast with just chakra consumption.
โSuiton: Suikusari no Jutsu,โ he stated firmly, commanding the water he had gathered to bend to his will. The liquid splashed upon the ground as it formed, immediately shooting towards the clone. However, they didnโt form chains as intended. The water reached the clone, wrapped around its wrists and ankles, but rippled and dissolved instead of completing the technique to its full extent. Shinjiโs face contorted in a frustrated pout. He was doing so well! Maybe he wasnโt quite ready for a stronger technique. He thought about calling it a day, going back home to rest. After all, his parents would probably be making a meal soon. They loved to cook, espetially at unconventional times of the day. They said it helped to keep things a surprise, keep the fun in life. However, they had a predictable pattern, cycling when they were cooking based on the day of the week. One would even wonder if they intentionally sabotaged their attempt at non-conformity.
Shinji took a deep breath. No, he wouldnโt give up just yet. He had to learn at least one stronger technique. Even if it took everything he had to do it. The Ketsueki clan would be impressed if he had learned at least one powerful technique today; maybe even to the point that they would divulge the clans bloodline secret techniques early! He smiled at the thought, a broad grin spreading over his face as he once again readied his chakra. This time he would avoid the chain technique. That was meant mostly for restraint. He wanted offense. There was plenty of time to learn defensive and supportive jutsu. Right now, he wanted to learn jutsu that would make him a force to be reckoned with. Shinji readied his hands, the strain of all the strange formations they had been taking sending a dull ache through his joints. After this one last attempt, he would be satisfied enough to go home with pride.
โSuiton: Fuuma Mizu Shuriken!โ His tone was different than it normally was. He often spoke with a detached, almost bored elegance. Shinji abandoned this verbal font for a much more determined one. He paired this command with a flurry of hand signs, fighting through the pain. His chakra gathered more water, aiming it at the floor as it was formed, adding to the pool he had produced with his last jutsu attempt. This time, the water sprang up and flew towards the clone, taking the shape of a much larger shuriken than this techniques weaker counterpart. It spun through the air until it collided with the doppelganger. The collision resulted in both the shuriken and the clone bursting into a cloud of water that splashed in various directions. Shinji stood proud of what he had accomplished. His breathing was heavy, but not so much that it was a problem. After all, he was only ten years old. The use of so much chakra over such a short period would wind even the most prodigal of young shinobi.
Shinji took to gathering his things, resting Yuugure against his shoulder with the blade facing toward the ground behind him, and the book within his other hand. He needed to be careful with it. The elders kept the main secrets of the technique hidden, but they frowned on taking even general information of the kekkei genkai without prior knowledge of the necessary, and extremely secretive, chakra manipulation. If something happened to this book, he would be in major trouble. That was when it started. The signs of war wafted before his eyes.
He watched as Kenshin Kosei, the head of the police force and the commander of CORE, left the dojo. He hadn't noticed that a man of such high esteem was even present. Maybe he was in a different section of the building. Shinji noticed that he seemed to be slightly agitated. Or.. was it worried? He had learned to read people at an early age, using the slight twitches in their facial features and body language to translate their emotions. However, he couldn't quite place what Kenshin was feeling. Strangely enough Shinji didn't take this to heart. Normally he would have been more curious, but he didn't think that pursuing Mr. Kosei was a good idea. It could lead to a massive scolding.
The Ketsueki genin was about to head out the doors, but paused when he saw a flicker of movement out of one of the windows. He focused his attention there, walking closer to get a better view. There was a bit of panic. Civilians were being ushered into the bunkers, while fleets of shinobi rushed through the streets. There was a panic. He took a second to think about what could have caused such mass hysteria. They weren't all heading in the same direction, but they were all geared for battle in one way or another. The police force were out in the streets helping the civilians cross the stampede of ninja to get them to safety. His eyes went wide. The village was under attack.
Shinji froze. A deep chill ran up his spine at the thought of an enemy onslaught. The destruction it would cause. The lives they would lose. His mind raced, trying to think of a course of action. What could he do to help the situation? He had just used up too much chakra to even entertain the idea of heading out to the front lines. Even if he hadn't, he was too inexperienced. At most he could be a human shield for the more important fighters. A distraction for the enemy maybe. His eyes flickered around the scene outside, looking at the directions that the Arashigakure ninja were moving in. Some were heading towards the gate, others out to further reaches of the territory. He did notice one larger problem with the situation...
His eyes narrowed into an angry scowl, mentally cursing himself. Shinji took off out of the doors to the dojo at a sprint.
The two had rested, awaiting to be called upon. He awoke just after Kenshin, hearing the CORE operative deliver the news. Kojiro stood side by side with Kenshin as they nodded to one another, dashing towards the battle ground together. The vanguard was on the move.

Uchiha Sosuke โ It's just the way of it, son. We all sell our souls sooner or later. โก โซ Katon โ Fuuton โซ Bored โซ
Sosuke and his stalwart companion, the horse Kisuke entered the grounds, the solemn sound of hoofbeats sounded around them as the tone of Arashi had changed in an extremely quick manner. Something had happened or was happening, and Sosuke was not entirely aware of it, but he wanted to be ready for it as it came to bear. Grabbing his quarterstaff he made his way towards the centre of the grounds and away from the others who may have still lingered in the grounds. Brushing back long, loosely brushed matte black hair, the Uchiha boy seemed a far cry from his more noble father, and nothing of the legacy of grace that his mother had left behind for him. His grey eyes surveyed the training ground and he wondered just why things had worked themselves into the current path before he rolled back his long jacket sleeves until they reached the elbows and made for an elaborate hem.
He twisted the staff readily around his body and lowered his stance slightly, his front foot slid into position ahead of his frame and the staff shifted to shoulder height as he angled it forward, the base of it neared his hips. From this stance, the Uchiha adjusted himself forward and bore the staff directly ahead of himself, then directed it around behind himself as he would in redirecting or as he received an opponent's strike. With the transition of balance, Sosuke pushed off of his right foot and outwardly exploded, he launched himself forward in an aggressive advance. He struck two times forward, then recoiled back onto himself and returned to the readied stance. The motions were simple, but they belied the core concepts of fighting with the staff. Control, balance, and aggression.
Sosuke followed through with another thrust of the staff, a crack of air broke from the tip after he did so and sent a cool breeze throughout the area, to which he chuckled, and withdrew it with a spin around his neck. The spinning motion followed through into his opposite hand where he spun the staff in a quickened pace, stepped forward, and prepared for another blow. A twist on the ball of his foot and his frame shifted low, chest dropped towards his knees and the polearm struck above him as his body carried forward beneath. His right foot slid forward to match his stance and he rose, his body now stood tall with the stave angled behind him, held in his right hand as he gazed around him with a seemingly disinterested expression. It wasn't that he didn't think the training was important, nor that he seemed disinterested in what he was doing, but it was the air that he had done this countless times before, and he just felt like he was going through the motions. It was a familiar look to anyone who had fought without purpose, and to this young man physical violence was only a tool, not even a means. He sighed and continued on.
The genin attempted to focus once more, he readied his staff forward and with a thrust, he struck a stone from the ground. The stone rose forcefully and ricocheted against one of the training mannequins back towards the man, whose eyes trailed its movement. As it returned he twisted the stave above his head until the very air around was disquieted and in its tumult, the stone was thrown away. He then brought the staff back down with a twist of his wrist and focused raw chakra into the timbre of it, the edges taking on a slight glow as it threatened to burst forth. He knew from prior experience, and the loss of a few other good staves, that if he were to smack the staff into the ground or another target, a resultant detonation of chakra would follow, but the genin resisted, and instead let the chakra peter out and rolled the staff over to his partner.
Sosuke shifted his stance, he swept his right leg back and made a sweeping range of motions with his body. The forms he adjusted through seemed fluid, practiced, and comfortable to him. His arms made a forward motion that grasped for the air ahead of him and twisted into it, a traditional grapple and throw. He returned to his rested state and with his back straightened, he rocked back and swept his leg back along with his shoulder, aimed to offset anyone who would be in his immediate range. Yet as he worked his way through the motions, the same look remained upon the man's face, distant, with the motion, but non-committed.
[ Trained Gentle Arts: Standard Grip, Off Balancing, Single Shoulder Throw ]
"You know, there's not too much of a difference between the grips, Kisuke. The largest difference is where you grab, normally I would grasp at the front of the collar, in the high grasp I reach for the back of the neck. And when an opponent throws me, I'm supposed to tuck my chin to my chest and plant a hand to the ground to roll out of it without faceplanting. Supposedly it is one of the best ways to rebound from my positions, but I don't know if I'm quite convinced as of yet." Sosuke said as he sidestepped and delivered an upward knee towards the air ahead of him, his arms wrought down in a quick manner to match the motion.
[ Trained Gentle Arts: High Grip, Fall Breaking, Reaping Leg Attack ]
"Though, just as easily, I can do this instead." He said and let out a guttural shout, chakra emanated from him in each direction, its pulse lifted the debris in the immediate area and set dust into his view.
"Though, I guess it is a bit showy when one could simply grab your problems head-on 'round the collar wrists cross'd the neck, pull it close to you, and choke the life out of it. Or, iff'n you're looking to be the generous kind and you don't want to hurt them too badly, you just grab the arm, wrap it 'round their back, and give it a lift." He told the horse, as his body followed the motions of both arguments.
Smiles faded as the conversation ended and Sosuke looked to his trusty mount, Kisuke the horse. He made a few steps across the courtyard and drew his hand to his chest, flattened his hand, and threw it outward, the resultant force caused no small amount of debris to kick up in the air before him. In the debris, his stance shifted his left foot lead forward, the right settled perpendicular to his frame. As he entered the stance, a burst of blackened flames burst from across his frame and out in the same distance as the Kiai from earlier. The Uchiha boy shifted out of the stance as it passed.
The footstep forward was followed by an immediate straight punch, the air around which crackled with immense pressure. Not the aura of chakra, but instead of focused intent and martial practice. Still seemingly bored with the practice, he carried on and aimed to keep his body at peak shape. The sudden forward motion was followed by an almost as impressive forward knee, which burst Sosuke off of his feet and into the air, augmented by the speed of the punch. As he touched back down he grasped his thigh in his hands and rubbed a knot out of the tender muscle.
"Still needin' to adjust to that burst of speed."
[ Trained Oblivion Fist: Floating Knee, First Blood ]
As the knot worked itself loose Sosuke stood and twisted on the ball of his foot, his opposite leg lifted and carried through some set focal point ahead of him. As he stepped back he sighed, adjusted his clothes and twisted his arm up, fist risen and as his body settled his wrist flicked outward and a pulse of chakra flared out from it. The energy released was enough to unroll the sleeve on that arm, and he eyed it suspiciously, a wry smile to his cheeks.
"First time that actually worked."
As he came off of the response he twisted his body around, bringing his right hand to his ribs, palm out as if to catch anything that may have struck him, while the left wheeled around his frame and stopped at the same point that his kick had been aimed for earlier. The force of his motion halted and the dust from his entire workout settled, disturbed only by the last wheel.

[ Please do not read! it was not meant to be well written D: cause I suck at that when it comes to training lmao ]
[ In the past ] Glanced around the dojo she waited for a teacher or instructor to arrive. Nozomi was honestly a bit nervous to be here, she had never learned taijutsu. She saw the scrolls of different kind of taijutsu and she figured she could go through them and see if it would help her feel slightly better. There was one she was interested in. Since the teacher was going to be late, she might as well work on it a bit.
Reading the scroll, she set it aside and stood up. She glanced down to make sure she gets this right. Right side was facing forward and her right leg extended as she made sure her weight was on her back leg and the knee bent. Rose her arms, she covered her upper torso and slightly slouched forward to be able to cover her face. She can see why this stance was to be important, it helped protect the main parts of her body. The next one was shifting her weight. Okay. She was sure she can do this. Shifting her weight, she was increasing the speed and adding chakra helped it. Okay. So far, not too bad. The next one was a hook or a jab, depending her choice. She started to practice different hooks and jabs as well shifting her weight around.
[ Stage One of Flowing Arts Learned! ]
Not too bad. She glanced at the clock and figured she was going have to learn this by herself. Her teacher may got caught up with something, it normally happens. She started to read the next one and stood back up and got into Fluid Stance. She started to work on speeding up her attacks and make sure it had a bit more force to it as well. Once her arms were burning, she decided to stop and went onto the next one. She focused by moving the chakra to her feet as she moved around with a burst of speed.
[ Stage Two of Flowing Arts Learned! ]
Not bad, she was actually having fun. Nozomi never thought that she would become comfortable using taijutsu. The next one, she went back to the defensive posture and started to target on the imaginary face that could be there if there was one. Nozomi even imagined there was attack coming to hers so she dodge them and just fought the air. Continued to rotate, slide left, back, strike, jab, knee kicks, etc, Nozomi was having fun just fighting the imaginary air. Once her muscles were burning, she figured it was time to take a moment and stop. She can always come back and learn more.
[ Stage Three of Flowing Arts Learned! ]
It was time for her to go to the hospital and help out. She wonders if Kageoru was there.
