Hidden Wind - Sutaina Furanken
As Furanken stepped off the boat and onto the dock that lead to the small, Hidden Wind Village, she allowed a grin to spread across her face. ‘Gian is too…Tiring, to use constantly…At least until I get a proper heart!’ she had declared during her time on the boat. That was the conclusion she had come to after her battle with Onishi. Thus, the need for other techniques arose – and while she could’ve gone to any of the other villages, she chose to improve upon her forte – the blade. And that was what leader her here to the Hidden Federation, or more precisely, one of the smaller villages that focused more upon the sacred styles of the blade. Her thoughts were put on hold however as she noticed a shadow suddenly loom over her.
“I take it you’ve come to learn about the Sword?” A voice asked, vigilant and somewhat strong-willed. Either way, Furanken merely nodded. “Then let us begin,” The voice answered and the Kakuzu girl extended a hand behind her to draw out her cleavers only to hear a firm ‘No!’ from the form in front of him. “You’ll learn the way properly first, with a REAL sword,” he said and a moment later, a katana in a black sheath was handed to her.
Frowning, Furanken took the sword, drawing it out to examine the silver blade before sheathing it once more. “What’s your name?” She asked, looking back towards the shadowed figure with a curious glance.
“Shichi'nintai Bankotsu,” The form answered as he stepped into the moonlight, thus revealing himself. “Also, before we begin, I would like to ask if you have any intention of visiting the Hidden Tree Village?” He added and upon seeing the shaking of the blonde’s head, he smiled. “Then we shall begin,” He cooed and in an instant, had his blade drawn and was upon Furanken in an instant, who had swiftly brought up the scabbard to block the blow. “Very good! Already utilizing every part of the sword is one part of proper swordsmanship; your stance however, is lacking!” He shouted and kicked the blonde in the stomach, sending her stumbling back.
Gasping, the girl panted for several moments before rising to her feet, her hand now reaching for the blade of her own katana which she drew out, dropping the scabbard as she held the blade out in front of her, a smile now decorating her face. Already, she was beginning to like this man’s style of teaching. Hands-on work always was the best way to learn in her eyes, and with several swift steps, rushed forward, sending the katana forward in a strong thrust, with Bankotsu parried with some effort.
“Your offense isn’t lacking, though your defense needs some work,” He commented as he Fura’s blade off with his own then sent a slash towards her, which in return, Furanken blocked, then pushed off before returning her own swipe. For several minutes, their blades collided in the moonlight, creating sparks and causing the noises to resound for miles. Attack! Defend! Counter-attack! All occured time and time again.

Hidden Wind - Sutaina Furanken
After what felt like hours, both forms still stood facing one another, their swords drawn. However, neither was exactly unscathed; Bankotsu had one bloody line across of his forehead while Furan’s body was covered by a multitude of smaller cuts here and there. Evidently, but until now, Bankotsu had been merely playing around with his ‘prey’ though that had been his undoing in this situation or at least, it was how he got the gash on his head. It was then that Bankotsu opened his mouth to speak:
“You’re certainly improving as we go along,” He admitted as he paced around the blonde, who never for a moment let her back face him. “But you still make to many unnecessary movements,” the swordsman advised as sighed. “You make so many steps where only several distinct moves will get you the same result. Of course, when you’re running about throwing knives and stuff, that’s fine and dandy, but when you’re wielding the sword in close spaces, you don’t want to move carelessly!”
There was the sound of shuffling steps and an instant later, Furanken had her blade pressed against her current mentor’s. “I do thank you for that tip!” she cried shrilly before beginning to apply a greater amount of force, thus beginning to push back Bankotsu’s blade before raising her leg and sending her foot directly into his gut, just as he had done to her previously, thus effectively sending the man stumbling backwards and a then Furanken was standing above him with her blade pointed directly at his face. "Is this enough for you?" She inquired as she then sheathed her sword upon receiving a brief nod. She then strapped the scabbed to her side then took several steps back. Apparently it was now that the 'real' training was set to begin.

Hidden Wind
“It will suffice, I suppose,” Bankotsu murmured as he dug his sword into the ground, pulling himself up to his feet. Sheathing his own blade a moment later, he looked towards Furanken. “You’ve proved yourself worthy enough to learn our ways,” He said as he smiled, but paused, as Furanken was about to turn away. “However, there are still a few things that I can teach you. They don’t really deal with sword fighting, but in their own way, they’re far more potent than one would think,” he said as he grinned. “But, I’ll show you some other time when we’re a little further from the village…for now however, you should put your swordsmanship to good work! There’s dozens of warriors here that would probably have something to teach you, and there’s one I know that can teach you a rather interesting technique,” Bankotsu said as he slung an arm around Furanken in an affectionate manner.
“Look for the woman known as Hwang Ivy – trust me, you cant miss her, and there’s no shortage of info on her in the village either.”
Furanken seemed silent for several moments as she heard this, shifting the kiseru in her mouth that she had placed there several moments previous. “And exactly what kind of person is this Ivy woman?” She asked, a curious brow rising as she exhaled a small puff of smoke in front of her.
“Well…you know those Dominatrix kind of chicks? The ones that love tight clothing have a whip and are usually a b***h to most people? Yeah, she’s that kind of woman – at the same time however, she’s damn good with the sword and her style fits her in a way I suppose. Now I hope you’re not intimidated now,” Bankotsu said with a snicker as he released Fura then nudged her forward. “Now go.”
Nodding slowly, the blonde turned then started off towards the village; though her thoughts on this Ivy figure remained rather mixed. Less than an hour later, after questioning several individuals, the Kakuzu girl found herself standing in front of a rather lavish mansion. Apparently, this Ivy person was far from poor. Grinning, she took several steps forward and a moment later a blade shot from somewhere in front of her and shot into the ground in front of her, and the blade soon retracted, and as Furanken’s eyes followed it, she saw it reform into a sword. Her gaze then moved from the blade to the hand holding it and her eyes widened. There, standing before her stood a rather scantily clad woman, wearing what seemed to be no more than patches of purple fabric and string…The steel pauldron on her shoulder was probably the most ‘covering’ thing she wore.
Oh yes, dominatrix was the perfect description for this woman.
“State your business!” The woman shouted, one hand moving to her hip as she stared at Furanken.
“You’re Ivy, right? Bankotsu told me you’d be able to teach me something,” Furanken started as she withdrew the Japanese pipe from her mouth, smiling.
Ivy frowned for a moment then moved a hand to her forehead. “I don’t have time for this…That man should know better than to send me pupils without notice,” she muttered to herself, but eventually stared at the stitched girl. “But then again, if he sent you to me, then you must be a capable girl…Fine. I’ll give you my time. First, let’s see your sword.”
Nodding slowly, Furanken drew out the weapon as she held it out in front of her, watching as Ivy stepped forward to examine the weapon. “While it’s a little better to use something with a straight edge, I suppose a katana will work just as fine,” she said as she ran a finger along the metal blade. “I know this may sound rather odd, but I want you to break down the sword with your chakra…No…” She said pausing for a moment to rethink her words. “Rather than break down, allow your chakra to run through the metal and break it into segments and once you have that done, don’t allow everything to fall apart. Instead, keep the blade linked together with your chakra…just divided, you see?”

Hidden Wind
“I suppose…” Furanken nodded slightly as she merely nodded her head. She then focused the flow of her chakra, allowing it to move through her hands, and eventually, to the blade itself. Soon, the blade began to vibrate and shift, several fissures in the metal forming, and with final burst, the sword’s blade broke into cleanly-cut slates, levitating weakly for several moments falling to the ground in a clatter. In a rather dumbfounded fashion, the blonde merely stared at the broken-down blade. “It broke.”
“Obviously!” Ivy muttered in a matter-of-factly way. “You didn’t focus enough chakra…Well, you managed to break down the blade, but you couldn’t keep the separated parts linked together,” She said as she then drew out her own sword, swinging forward so that it extended. “See? While my blade itself extended and in separate chinks, you can see that thin line of chakra that keeps every bit connected, right?”
Holding the handle of her sword, Furanken gathered up the pieces again and upon focusing her chakra, managed to get them to link back together. Ready to take another attempt, she sent her arm forward, and in effect, the sword and upon releasing a burst of chakra, the sword extended and bent almost like some manner of metal whip. With a flick of her wrist she drew the handle back and the blade retracted, soon forming together again as a whole.

"Did ya hear? There's some legendary strong guy training at the Hidden Arts!" A pair of passing maids gossiped to one another as they walked by the courtyard, glancing at Ivy for several moments then at the girl training with her before moving on. A moment later however, the Kakuzu girl whirled about on her heel, rushing for the docks.
"O-Oi! Where the hell are you going!?" Ivy scowled as she frowned.
"I just want to check something out! I'll come back to finish my training another time, alright?"
"...Fine."

A few minutes later Hui's laughter slowed down. "Your doing quite well Yamai. " Hui said as he stood up and walked closer to Yamai. "It seems like the effect of the mask is wearing off." Hui then nodded. "Yes like I said earlier after about ten minutes the opponent will have regained their composure and be able to keep themselves from laughing rendering the mask useless for the rest of the battle. So you can only use it once during battle." "Could I use it on the opponent at a differnet time other than the first fight we've had. "
" You can use it on a different opponent... only once in a battle though. " "Ok I got it now Hui. " "Alright Yamai were about to change tactics here." "What do you mean. " "We were starting from the strongest to the weakest but now I want to do it the other way, Don't mind the change these techniques will be usefull to you and you will be able to learn them quickly. " "It's ok with me if thats what you want. " "Alright Yamai lets get started then. This mask I'm about to teach you to use is called the Bunny Hood. " "The Bunny Hood. "
"Yeah the Bunny Hood." "Let me guess I can jump around a lot probably very high. " " For the most part your right Yamai. This Mask that allows you to move faster and rapidly. When you wear the bunny hood you can jump from miles in the air and also use the new power to up their kicking power. While the Bunny hood seems innocent...it has a deadly power." "I see. " Yamai said with a fake smile on his face. " Let get started then." "Hui took off his tragedy mask and put on the Bunny mask. " He had on a white bunny mask now.
" Looks nice on you Hui. " "I'm sure it does... I guess I show you what ti does now. " Hui Jumped up quickly and vent very high in the sky to the point where he was just a little dot. Then he started to come down quickly. He then pulled out an umbrella and opened it up. This slowed down is fall until he softly landed on the ground. "And thats all there is too it Yamai. " "I bet it is hui." Yamai didn't really want to learn this technique but he wanted to know all of the techniques he could from his home village.
Time went on for a little while and Yamai had created himself the bunny hood. "That looks good Yamai now put it on." Yamai put the mask on and began jumping around. " This is kinda fun Hui... I don't think it would be used in battle though just for me to travel and jump around. " "You could be right but this mask also increses you speed so if your facing a fast opponent you can be up to speed with them." Hui said while chuckling." Please don't joke around, your about as funny as the dead guy I met a few days ago. " "Did he make you laugh. " Hui said as Yamai looked down and sighed

((I'm going to consider this village as three different sections since I don't want to destroy them one by one.))
Sin arrived in the waters near one of the three areas holding Shinobi villages. Many of the ninja acted immediately, having heard the stories that came from Hidden Mist throwing all the techniques they had. The attacks would strike against the scale armor of Sin, releasing more and more Sin Scales into the waters to swim towards the shore where they will attack the advancing ninja armies. Sin soon called off the scale armor and then raised it's head, one again creating a sphere of energy-like barrier around it, stopping all the attacks that were coming at it.
((Ya. I know I'm one hour late with this but... Meh... Anyways, section one's defeat will be by tomorrow at noon pacific time if no one comes to fight against it.))

He defied them all, the senate, they said wait, he said no, he would go to battle he would with his shield held high or upon it, Mythology would never again fall not even to this beast. The air shook an crackled with electricity around the man who had become the de facto leader of the forces of the Federation. They all rallied under his banner as they prepared to fight, He stood on an outcropping speaking to the Elite of Mythology, those warriors who had been bred for this day and this day alone, from time to time would could see a specter of a imposing man in a white military uniform around him with hair like snow and the eyes of a demon imposed over his body. "We go now to war!" a roar like the sea crashing on the waves that rocked the beaches even now. "Sin is our enemy, it has no weakness, it has no flaw to be exploited. What does that mean?" The crowd roared many voices one mind. "We Fight HARDER!" Adonis spread out his arms wide to the assembled. "This creature would destroy all that we hold dear, our lands, our families, our spirits! We will crush it and the world will know what we did here today for the centuries to come, they will know that 3,000 nins stood against a beast that could bring about the end of the world and they did not run, they did not blanch in the face of death they smiled and ran faster, attacked harder and bled all of their life's blood to protect their lands. Did you eat well my friends? For tonight we dine in HELL! " The roar that followed even the beast would here over the cacophony of sounds of the already attacking armies on the shore. "FORWARD CHARGE TO VICTORY TO GLORY TO IMMORTALITY!!!" the 3,000 a small number for village advanced forward into the Frey, while many villages staged separate attacks from their strongest nins, this was one unit, many bodies, one collective soul they would attack and attack and attack until they were broken.
"Do you have room for one more blade?" Adonis turned to see a man wearing a mask riding a glorious white dragon. He grinned knowing his friend immediately. "Of course, we always have need of another blade," he laughed motioning forward. "Shall we go to battle then? Just like the battle for Sha Lon, only this beast is a bit smaller." Koujin allowed himself a rare laugh. "Indeed, but this one has many more teeth," they stood together as if this was just another day in the life for them. "No, matter, we've killed worse things, come on were being left behind." Koujin just laughed calling back to him as he was already charging forward on his silver white dragon. "No, my friend it looks like you are the one being left behind!" Adonis only smiled as he advanced forward on foot, for once he wore the simple garb of the Greeks with a Spartan cloak and helmet over it. His armies would still need some time before they reached the beachfront where the monster rampaged so he would be the one to strike the first blow. He stood on a circular outcropping of rocks on the edge of a cliff before the beach and in that strange stone circle that seemed to have been prepared ages ago for this very purpose, Adonis began to dance. With his hunter mask down, it was hard to see his expression as his sandaled feet his the dusky stone with a an unrelenting rhythm. He circled the mount like a Shaman his body contorted and twisted as he channeled the spirits of Poseidon. The earth shook violently, but not from the movements of Sin, even on the beach it was felt the rumbling of the earth in protest as it buckled in cracked sending up a huge wave of sand as the beach cracked in half a large chasm beginning to open up stretching out under Sin. "I will return you to the pits of Hell from which you emerged!!!" The chasm began to widen under the beast he would drag it under even it cost him his life.

"Even with so many villages together, I wonder if they have the power to combat such a monstrosity," Akira said more to himself as he and Kengan made their way towards shore of Hidden Federation. They had recieved word through the spy network that the being calling itself Sin was sighted coming to hidden Federation and it was then that the made their move. Kengan was worried. He had really never faced off against such a strong foe and he was wondering if he would truly be of any use here. Akira was more sure of himself as he prepared for battle, biting his finger and bringing it to the ground to summon Selene to his side. He quickly followed that up by activating his kikuta eye.

Tsuki Kross
Hidden Cloud
Emerging from the heavens in the sky, Tsuki and her metallic archangels would hover above the Hidden Federation and its many sub-villages. Her Ryuugan Eye looking around the many villages before she would see Sin emerging from the depths of the ocean it had sank into to get here from the Hidden Mist village. right now one of her defensive Archangels had been helping with the Hidden Mist's restoration and fighting off Sin Scales, though she and her attack angels were here now, ready for the second round at this seemingly unstoppable creation from hell. Descending down even further she took note to a mass army of brave Spartans gather together to attack the creature, the man known as Adonis was obviously giving them a rather long speech to peep them up for battle. She then snapped her fingers to Raphael, the archangel at her left, pointing down to the Sin Scales, she ordered him to help get rid of them all. The angelic warrior would soar down and hover over Adonis, having enough respect to give him a greeting and some advice. "I am Tsuki Kross of the Hidden Cloud, I've come to aid you before this beast destroys any other village. I've decided to pass down a little wisdom to one who has faced this beast before. It seems that attacks or a stream of an attack hitting one area upon him does the most damage to it, however, even though its barrier is down, I am uncertain if he is capable of annihilating this village with the same attack it did the Hidden Mist. When its barrier was pushed back, it created a large bulge before springing forwards and launching out a most powerful all around projectile that wiped out the village and just about everyone within it.....I'd advice you to prepare the village's defenses so the same will not happen here, my Archangels and I will assist you anyway we can." Tsuki explained to Adonis, her angels hovering behind her and Tsuki never gave the man eye contact, but instead examined Sin for any weak points, though the large oceanic blob didn't seem to have any. Though now that his barrier was down it should make it somewhat easier, or at least she hoped. The only thing she could do now was to battle her heart out and hope the man takes her advice in order to protect the village from any harm.

Komen came to this vast empire of villages and saw Sin, "Lucky, finally caught up to this thing." He said with a sigh as Hayate was riding his flying beast Gorran with him. "Come we have to help stop Sin." He said as Hayate jumped off the back of Gorran and went straight for the front lines, hoping that he could do some good there. Komen dawned his Guyver armor as he set his charge straight for Sin. "Damn this guy is huge." He said as Gorran was riding his way toward Sin with Komen on his back. Komen aimed his hand straight at, "Eight Trigrams Divine Hand." He announced as his chakra focused into his palm and let loose a powerful stream at Sins bulky carapace like skin. Komen let the technique end after a few moments and continued to ride closer and closer to sin. Komens Pendent grew brightly as he hoped he would be able to help stop this monster.
Hayate was riding in with Komen and saw Sin once again, "Damn that giant thing." He said as he gripped his fist. He felt helpless compared to the others and hoped that he would be able to do something against this beast. Hayate saw a clearing where he could fight on his own and jumped off Gorran. Hayate free fell for a few meters and than inacted his telekinesis technique to float his body off of the ground. Hayate landed and made a mad dash fro the front lines. He saw a few sin scales had broken through the lines and were trying to get deeper into the city. "No you don't." Hayate said as he used his superior mind and agilty to strike the sin scales with precision with his simple kunais. "Hmmm..." He said as a sin scale tried to jump him from behind. Hayate quickly turned his head and sent the scale flying through a building. "Gotta keep moving." He said as he was still heading for the front lines. Hayate held a single kunai in his hand as the other was used as a focus for his telekinetic abilities.

((Again I was late with my time... Meh...
Oh, the Sin Scales can be killed easy so I don't need to RP them. Forgot to say that last time.))
As an army of Spartans ran towards the massive monster known as Sin, they would be confronted by Sin's own army of Sin Scales. The crack may have tried to cause Sin to fall into a chasm but Sin actually stayed in place as water spilled into it while Sin stayed where it was, almost like it was levitating. Sin merely sat there, gazing at the carnage of Sin Scales and fallen Spartans while a seemingly endless army of Sin Scales would start to pull themselves from the waters to attack the men around. A loud groan would come from Sin, causing a rather large tremor that would cause the other shinobi to lose their balance as well as lose their lives to the Sin Scales after they would attack the neck or shoot spines at them.

Agito and his clones arrived surprisingly last even though they were the firsts to leave. They spared no time to attack as the remainign 100 clones were told to take out the scales that were sent. Agito then landed and released his armor so he wouldnt waste its power. He regrouped with the other stronger shinobi who were fighting against sin as the black flame like pattern still covered half his body. He then turned his head slightly to the others and began to speak " any body got any bright ideas on how to beat this thing?" Agito a few more ideas he wanted to use on Sin but figured if there was a way to beat the beast why waste chakra.
