*~ Sorry I took so long four days out of school and I still can’t log on. ~*
Naomi remembered when she was training in Hidden Light. Back when the true Naomi was calling the shots. She heard a few rich folk speaking of a girl of similar appearance to the girl who stood before her. Although Naomi’s true spirit wasn’t paying attention Naomi’s Beasty form was. “You are Hedoro, no?” asked Beasty Naomi awaiting a response. While she waited she began to fiddle with her jacket sleeves. She grew bored in a sense from waiting. The girl seemed to fondle the question in her mind, seemingly stalling, which bored Naomi slightly.

Hedoro
Hedoro didn't answer immediately. The other person's answer intrigued her, but at the same time made her uneasy. She had gone to great lengths to not let anyone know of her true nature after her escape, even going so far as continually wearing this disguise of hers, these layers upon layers of rags and torn clothes and bandages. How the other person knew her name, and possibly her nature by association, eluded her. Unless she was connected to her past? She didn't remember that voice, not like she remembered the voices of her captors. If they had even an inkling of who and what she was, she'd have to tread carefully. Finally ready to answer, she replied with a simple negative, saying she wasn't this Hedoro. She couldn't afford to maintain contact with anyone who knew what she was, lest she be dragged into a fight, and the attention it would draw. Better to try to get away, if at all possible. She made her way back the way she'd came, back towards the city, moving slowly and carefully.

(I probably should have described her disguise better when I first mentioned it, that was my fault. After describing it so many times before this, it got kind of boring. Basically she is completely covered from head to toe in multiple layers of discarded clothes, rags and bandages.)

*~ I know how it is, having to describe things over, that is. I should have read up on your posts a bit before just up and posting. Oh and Naomi has been taken over by her inner beast and is trapped within her own mind just as the beast was. She hasn’t taken on the appearance of a beast, she just has it’s personality at the moment. ~*
“Not Hedoro?” thought Naomi staring at the girl. She quickly stopped fiddling with her sleeves from her surprise. “I sense that it is the girl of whom they speak of… But she says nay. I may need to follow her and see who she is.” continued thinking Naomi as she ran after the girl. Not in a 'wait for me friend' pace but in a way as to seem to be trying to pass Hedoro by. “Hold on a sec. So who are you anyway? If you don’t mind me asking. I thought you were the girl I'd been seeking.” asked Naomi finally catching up to the girl. Hedoro continued to walk as did Naomi in a most casual manner.

Hedoro
The tense atmosphere seemed to lighten up slightly, it didn't appear the other person was going to start a fight. As Hedoro had turned to walk towards the city, the other person popped up and ran towards her. Not the fast-paced footwork of someone positioning for an attack, it looked more like someone trying to catch up with an acquaintance. She debated increasing her own speed, running off and not having anything more to do with them, but that'd be suspicious. She had said she wasn't Hedoro, so she would have no reason to run away if that was the case. Instead she forced herself to stick to the same pace she'd been using, and allowed Naomi to catch up.
(6 of 10)
She kept an eye on Naomi, turning her head to face the other person, even though it wasn't necessary. Better to keep up appearances that she was completely normal, maybe that'd let her find a way to get away from this person before they found out too much. When they asked her name, she already had an answer. She said her name was Suzumi, Tamao Suzumi. She knew that there were some times when a name had to be given, just as surely as she knew that she wouldn't give her own. She could have taken any name she pleased, but instead she had opted for her roommate back when she was at the academy.
(7 of 10)
She still wasn't precisely sure why she'd chosen that name, though. Originally, she'd planned on using the same anme she'd used as an alias before her academy days, that of En Pishi. It had proven useful enough, and a forgettable enough moniker that people usually didn't bother remembering it. But if this person knew about her past, there was a decent chance they'd recognize that name as well. Even so, that didn't tell her why she'd used Tamao's name. She'd have to think more about it later, when she was free of this other person's attention. She began to take turns at seemingly random, planning out a long and circuitous route that would hopefully waste enough time that the other person would tire and leave.

"Tamao aye." thought Naomi. "That name is unfamiliar to me. Either she's lying or I've come for the wrong girl. But if I have then why have I finally been able to free myself from Naomi's mind. Maybe Tamao is the girls name and still she may free me. Meaning she is my true master. I'll have to test her. Maybe not now but as soon as she drops her guard." she continued. "Well, my names Bonnita Rarula." "replied Naomi smiling. "That doesn't even sound like a name. Stupid self. The true Naomi would be more creative. Grr, stupid self." thought Naomi still smiling and following Hedoro. Within Naomi's mind Naomi sat and pondered on what Beasty Naomi was planning. SHe couldn't quite place her finger on it but she knew only bad would come of what Beasty Naomi was planning. "I've got to stop her." thought Naomi still pondering.

Hedoro
Hedoro quickened her pace ever-so-slightly, adding just a single inch to each leg to increase her speed a little, hopefully without being noticed as such. She turned to fully face Bonnita and nodded recognition of what she'd said, all human mannerisms designed to try to make her appear normal. She said that she was pleased to meet Bonnita Rarula, but that she had an urgent matter that required her immediate attention. She really had to be going, perhaps they'd meet again in the future. Of course she had no intention of that, meeting any person once was enough, to meet them twice was to invite disaster. She began to turn away and walk on, getting ready to quicken her pace a second time as they would seperate.

As Hedoro began to quicken her pace Naomi threw a kunai down in front of Hedoro. "Whether or not you are this Hedoro girl I cannot allow you to leave my sight. I need something of you." said Naomi quickly as her smile grew larger. "I need your body as a vessel so to say. But once I'm done with you I will turn you over to those rich poppers that asked so much about you. I may even get a wonderous reward from doing so." continued Naomi performing a few hand signs. As she did so her hair began to friz. More and more it frizzed as Naomi grin stretched across her face.

Hedoro
Hedoro had just begun to think that perhaps she'd be able to get away, when Bonnita threw a kunai at her. She saw the throw even without turning her head, but didn't dodge until a second after it had hit the ground in front of her. Maybe she could get Bonnita to underestimate her abilities, since it seemed she was intent upon a skirmish. Straightening up, she stepped on the kunai and turned to face Bonnita. If she had facial expressions, she would undoubtedly be glaring about now. So you intend to take me back, she said, arms flat at her sides. They were apparantly connected to her past by some means or other, it looked like a fight would be unavoidable.
(10 of 10, Tornado of Water)
She made no obvious sign of her own readying for battle, instead she stood there casually, as if daring Bonnita to make a move. She was ready to attack if she needed though. But first, she'd see just what her opponent was capable of, what sort of techniques they knew. Perhaps even something worth stealing? Her stomach distended slightly, maybe three inches or so, Bonnita might not even notice. But if she didn't, she'd be in for a surprise. Hedoro saw Bonnita's hair frizz up, and her nails looked a little longer than most people allowed. There was a certain look in her eyes, too, that warranted caution. Perhaps this would be a challenge of a new sort, something she hadn't encountered before.

"Seems as though she's testing me. Maybe I shouldn't use that one move. I'll just strum her along a bit to see what she can do as well." thought Naomi finally finishing her hand signs. "Jinzou Invisibilty!" exclaimed Naomi. Suddenly Naomi movements appeared much faster than normal. "Jinzou Invisiblility is genjutsu. The lights of which causing an opponents mind to see my movements as fairly quicker." as Naomi spoke her fangs began to come in and she began to stand on the tips of her toes. "Oh and prepare for a marvelous battle. A human v. a beast... heh, I'll win hands down." concluded Naomi as her smile began to fade.

Hedoro
Hedoro watched as Bonnita finished her hand signs, and began to move faster, lights in the background making the effect even more realistic. Hedoro wasn't familiar with the technique, so she simply assumed it meant that Bonnita had made herself faster. If the technique had any other effects, she'd find them out in due time. At the moment, however, it was her turn to make a move. She ran towards Bonnita at a decent pace, nowhere near her fastest, and threw out a simple right hook. The speed of her punch was laughable, even without Jinzou Invisibility, she'd probably be able to dodge without any difficulty. Was this the best Hedoro had, or was she just toying with her opponent, pulling her punches, as it were?
(2 of 8.5)
She could find out easy enough depending on what actions she took. Hedoro was expecting her to dodge, since the punch was so slow as to practically be begging to be dodged. She readied her left arm for a straight jab to where she predicted Bonnita might dodge. Again, nowhere near as fast as she could. Only while she was throwing her first punch did she decided to reply to what Bonnita had said. She commented on how foolish it was to take the time out of a fight to explain how techniques worked. It wasted time and gave away an advantage. She made no comment on Bonnita calling her a human, all the better if that's what she thought.

*~ Beasty Naomi and the real Naomi communicate telepathically since one always resides in the mind of Naomi. ~*
"Hmph." said Naomi ducking down rather than moving to another location. "Strong Fist Style!" exclaimed Naomi attempting to punch Hedoro in the stomach. "Since you do not wish for an explanation I shall not provide you with one. But I will however show you how wrong you were for not wanting more of an advantage than you have for the time being." stated Naomi as she tried to figure a plan of action. "You're not me so you won't think up anything." "Naomi, my weaker half. How are you trapped within your mind? Is it enjoyable." "Hardy har har. You won't beat her using jutsu without trying to fuse them and create a combo. Also you need to plan ahead. She's most likely going to strike you with her other hand and you didn't even think about how you'd defend yourself." "Well if you want to have a body when I let you free again then you'd better start helping." "Alrighty then. After you get hit one good time I will. I need to see what she can do or at least if she's testing us like we are her." concluded Naomi.

Hedoro
Hedoro saw Bonnita duck under the thrown right hook, a good enough way to block. She could easily redirect her left straight, but instead let it continue on it's path, at the same time letting herself get hit in the stomach. She probably could have avoided it, but instead didn't. The force of the punch made her step back and slightly double over. She pulled her arms back to her, holding one over her stomach area protectively. She teetered back a second step, her head bobbing as she tried to catch her breath. That hit must have knocked the wind out of her, she'd recover in a handful of seconds, but would that be fast enough?

(You might want to use two different sets of markers, then. Maybe "blahblah" for spoken, and -blahblah- for thought?)

*~ How about I put it in italic then? Beasty Naomi's thoughts could be red and Naomi's could be blue also. ~*
After taking the blow Naomi stepped back a bit from the force of the punch. "I'm certain that was a fake punch but whatever. I can assume her strength slightly from that blow alone. There's something odd about that girl so keep on your toes. Now here's the plan." as Naomi told Beasty Naomi her plot Beasty Naomi readied to initiate it. "Got it." thought Naomi performing a few hand signs. "Elemental Clone Jutsu: Rock." excliamed Naomi, focusing her chakra. Her hair began to levitate a bit as she performed the hand signs. "What's with the melow dramatics?" "Shut up Naomi. I'm focusing my chakra." "Kind of a weird way to do it don't you think?" replied Naomi as Beasty Naomi sighed heavily. After finishing her hands signs there was no sign of the jutsus success. "What the heck?!? Naomi is this a joke?" "Your five clones are underground. They're going over to the girl. They will perform Inner Decapitation once you do your part." "Hmph, these clone things are so sneaky." replied Naomi vanishing then reappearing a ways from Hedoro then vanishing again. After a moment or two Naomi reached Hedoro and readied to stick her index nail into Hedoros neck and place her into an unconscious state.

Hedoro
Hedoro was surprised that her left straight punch had hit, she hadn't altered it's path in the slightest, it should have flown harmlessly over Bonnita's head. She wasn't about to argue, though, if her opponent wanted to get hit, that was fine by her. She saw Bonnita begin performing hand seals, and did the same. She wondered just what her opponent was up to, she didn't immediately recognize the technique, and nothing seemed to happen. She stopped worrying about it, and finished her own technique, performing A Maiden's Love is Pure, to let her maximize her chakra. She saw Bonnita disappear, likely using Body Flicker. She pulled her posture back, sinking into a slight crouch, moving her head to look around to where Bonnita might have gone.
(5 of 8.5)
She didn't have long to wait, either. Bonnita appeared a short distance away, then disappeared once more. Hedoro expected she'd close the distance between them, but she had expected Bonnita would have attempted to get behind her, not the side. In the time it'd take her to amend her decision, Bonnita would have the opportunity to strike with her finger. Hedoro didn't know what purpose that single-finger jab could do, but she knew she'd find out soon enough. She guessed perhaps some form of paralyzing technique, perhaps? Something to slow her down, or maybe stop her altogether? But would it work?
(6 of 8.5)
(Yeah, that'll work just fine.)

"What are you doing?" "Ending this now instead of being a frightened baby and pulling off a million and one tricks." "You're going to get us killed. We need to test her more." "Screw the testing! You're becoming a real pain in the a-" "Mind your thoughts... stupid." "I heard that! Now stop bugging me so I can finish her off." replied Naomi continued her attack. "I do wonder why she hasn't dodged me. Maybe because I'm moving too fast. Oh well, she's done either way!" thought Naomi stabbing Hedoro in the neck. "Wha? I didn't..." "I told you not to strike. Quickly distance yourself before she launches an attack on you." replied Naomi but Beasty Naomi didn't move just then. Finally after contemplating Naomi turned to run off a distance.
