Location: Senju Compound ~~~~"Every failure is a chance to improve yourself...
~~~I'll never give up until I'm the best that I can be!"~~~~~~~Uani Theme: Kiseki Hajimari
As Uani went to deliver her blow to this hooded man, she found herself completely unable to move. It was like she was frozen solid... which was weird because she didn't see him use any kind of ice ability... She knew she was definitely in some serious trouble.
"Oh man, this is bad... This is very, very bad..."
Uani had no idea Yuko was nearby, to her Inari was knocked out and she was there alone and trapped. She tried her hardest to struggle free, even tried shifting again to break out of whatever was holding her. However she was unable to do either. As the man caused her to turn around and face a tree, Uani could only picture the worst. She was sure that if she didn't break out somehow she was going to die. Luckily, that wasn't what her captor had in mind, something Uani found out as she found her head hurtling towards the tree.
There was a splash of pain, followed by stars and bright colors dancing all around her. She found it very pretty as she was laying on the comfortable ground. Wait, she was laying on the ground? Well, she guessed it didn't matter...she would just lay there for a while...watching the pretty colors dancing...

 He was beyond smug, he was elated. He would have been gloating and taunting except the girl hit so hard that it knocked her out cold it seemed. He released his shadow possession as she sank to the floor. "Pfft, that was it? Some great clan you Arrow-moray lot are!"Well, maybe her being awake didn't matter. It was sure enough through his actions and how he moved that he was intelligent, however, he was brash and arrogant. And that same hubris was about to take him from the his position on high, into a world of hurt. Just as he took a step back that same random fog came back... in the middle of the woods... with no difference in temperature. "What the hell, is there another shinobi here!?" The boy whirled around in time to see push her hand out to him after a string of unfamiliar hand seals. He moved to step back and water began to flood out. "s**t!"Shock to his face as the cold water hit his skin and made his clothes about ten bounds heavier over all. What was odd was it began to wrap around his form and take an orb shape. Thinking he was done, he quickly drew the kunai hidden in his sleeve of his right shirt and made a slash at Yuko's hand. Despite the torrent of water starting to take him off of his feet, it was still a well aimed and precise strike. He was hoping if he cut her hand that her concentration would break and the jutsu would end. Otherwise, he was not sure how to get out of here. She moved much too quickly for him to use a substitution jutsu. He might have one solution but he was starting to get tired, he was pretty much limited to his slash being effective and if that and his next plan did not work, this strange girl had him dead to rights.

The captain yelled, heave ho, heave ho, and tied me down with sheets,
A storm is brewing in the south, its time to go to sleep.

The ocean gnashed and moaned
Like Jona will be swallowed whole
and spat back teeth and bones.Yuko HyugaSlashing in water was never easy, when it was slashing through a dome of water that was even more unnaturally dense to prevent movement in the first place. Yuko squatted down to avoid the slash, then placed her other hand into the dome to have more control over it. She needed to end this quickly, both for her sake, and the sake of the Aramori clan. When the slash was completed she slowly stood up again, still keeping her hands in the water and her concentration full. She breathed a bit of a sigh of relief but didn’t drop her guard entirely, where did that other one go? She tried to use her Byakugan to see him, though he appeared to have up and left, likely reverse summoning back to wherever he had come from. Her eyebrows angled downwards slightly as she stared at the boy she had caught in her water prison. Hopefully now it was nothing more than a short waiting game as either he would run out of air and pass out, a jounin would come and help them out, or that man would return and collect his henchman. If that happened she would be in trouble. With Uani out for the count and –as far as she knew- Inari too, she was going to have her hands full fending off both of them. She wouldn’t be able to keep this up forever either. His movements might be limited, but he would still have some movement, as long as she could use the density of the water to keep his hands apart then she should be okay. It was starting to get darker too, she prayed that aid would get there for them soon. Her head was starting to really pound now and she might not be able to hold on much longer herself. All she could really do now was keep concentrating and hope for the best right now. Yuko Theme Hush love, hush love,

Things were grim for the rogue shinobi, he was immersed in this strange jutsu were the water density was incredible. It disabled him from even clasping his hands together, his shadow possession was a moot point now. The girl had him trapped inescapably so, and he was starting to run out of air having not taken a proper inhale of oxygen into his lungs. His vision started to become hazy and the already darkened forest was becoming even darker as consciousness started to slip from his grasp. In an instant Yuko’s byakugan would pick up and detect a rapid array of spectral light rushing towards their position. Nearly as fast as Uani’s jutsu she had used earlier to move behind the boy. A power blow slapped her right arm hard enough to knock her both her arms off of the watery orb and cause her to spin in a half circle. The man from before had returned and returned and he now stood between her and Uani with the unconscious shadow user draped over his shoulder. “Well this is rather bothersome… and here I thought that this boy would prove enough to offer you a proper challenge. It appears I over estimated his abilities, well now, we can’t be leaving you here all alone, can we?”The man moved as if to strike her, and with a wave of his long sleeved arm, a kunai with an explosive tag shot out towards the summoning circle, destroying and compromising the evidence of his presence in the forest. “Now, we will take our leave of this place…” The next thing she would note is it seemed he paused to take a long look at Uani, before emitting a glowing light from his whole body similar to the way light is refracted from a prism and just like that he vanished in B line towards the edges of her vision and the away all together at an alarming rate, as if someone clicked a flash light on and off.

His Berth, it rocks, heave ho, heave ho,

Like Jona will be swallowed whole
and spat back teeth and bones.Yuko HyugaYuko just didn’t have time to react to the man has he came around and forced her hands out of the water orb that held the shadow user boy. The best she could do was follow the momentum from the half spin and flip a few times to get some distance away from him. She took up a defensive fighting stance but she knew that she didn’t have a hope in hell of beating this guy. If he could move like this this fight would be over before it started. Before she could stop him, he destroyed the evidence. Well, at least she saw it and the obvious destruction of the ground from the paper bombs would add some credibility to her story. Yuko didn’t make a move as she watched this hooded man whisk away the shadow user boy, it was only after they had gone that Yuko sank to her knees. God that was scary, she hated combat, she was never good at it and having that man display such abilities as that, it only further shook her confidence in conflict even more. She caught her breath and looked around. She was too far away to see if Inari was okay or if he was coming. The best that she could do was take Uani with her to the village again and hope that the Senju leader could take a joke…
The pang of humiliation started to gather in her chest at the failure of her mission, she sighed and stood up, she walked over to Uani and put her on her back for transport, it was a struggle and getting her to stay on required a little problem solving but she eventually got the young clan head on her back as was slowly walking back. She rested her byakugan, not wanting to overdo it with both her chakra and her eyes. If she used it too long, sometimes her eyes would get blurry and she couldn’t even tell basic features for a while. Her head was pounding ruthlessly too, she was sure that she was close to overdoing it this time, judging by the way her head felt like it was going to split open at any minute. Her breathing was heavy, as though she had just run a great distance. One things was for sure, she would likely get a good sleep tonight. Still, she wondered what those two people were up to? She didn’t get any of the conversation with reading their lips so that was of no help. Yuko continued her way through the forest with a slow pace. She needed to get back to the Clan and make sure that both Uani and Inari were alright. Yuko Theme Hush love, hush love,

Inari
Aramori  As yuko carried the unconcios uani out of the woods she would quickly come upon the spot where they left Inari. He was in the same spot they left him in, but he was in a different position. His face was covered in blood that had came down from his head. It was obvious Uani's axe kick was effective. Inari lay flat on his back arms sprawled out to his sides. One hand gripped his goggles, the other lay motionless. His mouth was wide open however as a loud snore escaped him. However as the sun shone off of Uani and Yuko's headbands and hit him int he face he groaned sitting up. "Wha.... whats going o-owowowow my head... what the hell happened?" he said looking about sleepily and rubbing his head where a huge lump had formed. Looking up at yuko he yawned. "did we win?" he asked rubbing the drool from his chin. ((406)) Don't take everything so seriously

“Whatchya looking at guys?”
In between them sat a boy cross legged and grinning from ear to ear with childlike curiosity. He looked from one to the next, studying them in a way only small children seemed cable of. If anyone of them reached out to grab him, they would find themselves coated in a fist full of smoke and holding a log.
“So did you guys have fun playing with those people in the forest? They seemed like fun. Too bad they left, I hadn’t got a chance to play. I put on my special big boy outfit and everything!”
He looked genuinely put out as he said this. If any of them had any doubts about his age, that look would confirm it, this child wasn’t barely nine; not even a grown adult or a small teenager. His outfit was leather bracers and studded with metal orbs, and his furry coat lined and was adorned with three tail of foxes.
“Hey do you like my mask? I made it myself. The other guy had a cool mask though did you see it Yuko-nee? Oh are you bleeding? Here you go. Lollipop?”
He held out a lollipop towards Inari, for whatever reason he would have a compulsion to take it and eat it right away, of course he would think it was his idea. He looked up to Uani and smiled like the rising sun, face full of beaming enthusiasm.
“You were really great, they were sure afraid of you. Maybe you could teach me that some day? I am pretty quick myself so don’t be afraid if I get it and make it better myself ha-ha! .... Uani-nee are you still sleeping? Sheesh, lazy as Inari-chan haha!”
Just who was this boy, and what exactly did he see. Every time he would say something like he had observed a great deal, the boyish nature oozed out of him and they were once again left wondering the complexity or simplicity of this strange unknown boy.

The captain yelled, heave ho, heave ho, and tied me down with sheets,
A storm is brewing in the south, its time to go to sleep.
His Berth, it rocks, heave ho, heave ho,
The ocean gnashed and moaned
Like Jona will be swallowed whole
and spat back teeth and bones.Yuko HyugaYuko bowed her head when Inari asked her about the mission and them winning, her eyes fell to the ground as she answered the question with a heavy reply. ”No… there was another one aiding the first… I couldn’t keep the boy contained and the other one set him free. I’m sorry…” Yuko felt bad, she had the boy in her grasp and he got away, it felt like it was more her fault than anything. When the giggling erupted over the still landscape Yuko shot up without thinking and took a defensive position, a deep heavy thud echoed painfully behind her. She gasped and turned around. ”Ohmygosh! Uani-sama, I’m so sorry!!” If the girl was close to coming conscious again, then she might have just been set back a few more hours. Oh god, she hoped that Uani didn’t remember that and that Inari would keep his mouth shut about it. How embarrassing…
Yuko found herself more than a little distracted with the small child who was displaying some solid ninja skills and froze for a moment, even her breath seemed to freeze over in her throat as she saw someone so young displaying such skills. He was young, if his words were anything to go by she would guess 6 or 7 years of age. To be forced to be a shinobi so young… it stirred a visceral anger within Yuko. It was no different here than it was in her own clan. Someone his age should be playing pretend and other games, not risking their lives for the sake of the clan. However, rage was washed over by motherly instinct as she lowered herself to the boys level, and giving him a soft smile. A smile that belied what she was truly feeling inside.
”You certainly look very fierce in your outfit and mask.” Yuko replied softly. She didn’t want to tell this child that he should be in bed by now, he seemed so interested in the activities that they were doing. She was thankful that this child wasn’t caught in the middle of the conflict, who knew what those two would have done to a child his age. ”What’s your name, sweetie?” Yuko would humor the child for a little while longer and then she would make sure that he went back to his parents place. She didn’t know what he was doing here, and she didn’t want to scold him for following them into the woods, for all she knew, he was already playing there when the alteration occurred… wait… if he was in the forest when they were fighting, why didn’t she see him with her byakugan? Clearly his chakra network was developed if he could do jutsu like that, even a little bit… how far away was he when all this was going on and how much of it did he really see? Her face became puzzled as the boy turned his attention to picking on Uani. Something… didn’t feel right about this. Who was this boy? She stood up again.
”Well, I think it’s time we got this big boy to a bed so that he can rest after all his excitement.” Yuko suggested, offering her hand for the boy to take. Her next statement was more to the group… well… more to Inari seeing as he was the only one currently conscious. ”We should also report back to Senju-dono… we… might have some explaining to do and I should report what I found.” Yuko Theme Hush love, hush love,

Inari
Aramori Inari Scratched his head as yuko explained what happened. "Well if he had help theres nothing we could have done. We didn't know what we were up against, I felt something strange right before I was put down. Like my body froze up... not from fear, I was unable to even scratch my nose... which reminds me." as he came to the realization he realized his nose still itched and found himself vigorously scratching it. Hearing the giggling Inari looked around for the source. Then he heard a thud and turned to see Yuko freaking out for dropping uani. Inari was about to laugh as well when suddenly a boy appeared in between them. Inari had to blink a few times, taking the lolipop almost mechanically, his mind still trying to figure out who this boy was and how he got there to begin with. More importantly why he would take the lolipop when he had his own. As yuko suggested getting back he grinned. "Well I don't now where you came from kid but looks like if you stay with big sis yuko you'll be just fine... Speaking of which let me see if I can't take some weight off your shoulders." he said standing to his feet. Placing his goggles back on his head he walked over to the unconscious girl. Reaching into his jacket he pulled out a small brightly wrapped piece of paper. "Oooooh Uani I have this candy here..." he said with a grin waving it just under her nose. Don't take everything so seriously

"Yeah you like it, I do look fierce huh? Hmn!"
He took on a serious scowl that made rabbits look vicious as he tried to be as serious as possible. He placed his mask on, and made a couple of dramatic poses, grabbing one of his tails and making it "billow" in the wind while making noises with his mouth resembling ominous wind howls.
"Who me? I'm Shizukana Dengen ma'am"
He lifted his mask and beamed from ear to ear, obviously proud of his name. He looked to Inari and chuckled with all the merriment that children have when someone tells them that they have cool siblings, sitting around and smiling he looked around and listened quietly. As soon as someone mentioned the Village Head he raised his hand.
"Oooh oooh I'm on it! And now -- Ha! Super secret planetary phase shift no jutsu!!!!"
At first it sounded completely made up, that was before he placed his hands together and made so many hand seals that the wind actually cracked like a whip between them. There was a sensation of earth moving like an earthquake of like a pocket of earth was going open up underneath and swallow them. The next moment the were in the presence of Midori who was calmly seeing to the plans being carried out, also accompanied by Zasso.
"Hiya Okaa-san reporting for duty. So this one had a mask, and another had a hugenormous shadow. Aaaaand UanikickedInariintheheadbeforeheadbuttingatreeandtheYukocapturedtheshadowmanbeforethemaskedmancheatedandthentheyleft ..... but it wasn't there fault! They did cheat, Yuko was clearly engaged with the other man and winning.... I hate cheaters...."
For a moment the the air pressure simply stopped in the room, causing every persons breath to catch in their throats. Midori walked over to the boy and kissed him on the head before pulling a candy from thin air and handing it to the boy, who gave a squeal of delight and the air once again returned to normal.
The clan head lightly touched both Inari and Uani's heads, a soft green glow emanated from the and a slight tingle of electricity flowed through them, waking Uani and speeding up their healing factors temporarily by ten fold."Now then m'dears, what happened? I am afraid sometimes Dengen can speak even too fast for me to comprehend."

The captain yelled, heave ho, heave ho, and tied me down with sheets,
A storm is brewing in the south, its time to go to sleep.
His Berth, it rocks, heave ho, heave ho,
The ocean gnashed and moaned
Like Jona will be swallowed whole
and spat back teeth and bones.Yuko HyugaIt was disorienting to say the least, the sudden jutsu that had teleported the group to where the Senju lord was would have made anyone queasy… but this wasn’t what Yuko was distracted with while all this was going down. What she was distracted with was the fact that this child seemed to be a full fledged ninja. Yuko, as was Hyuga tradition and conditioning, bore her visceral level rage with stoicism and stony silence, the fact that this child was already using jutsu of this level disgusted her to no end and the usually very respectful Yuko was having a very hard time to find a reason to remain so around this clan. It was no better than her own, here she was hoping that she could make a fresh start in the world and come to a clan that was better than her own… instead, she found the same thing that she had desperately tried to get away from in her own clan. It took Yuko a few minutes to collect herself enough so that she could force respect to someone she no longer saw as being worthy of it. While Midori was healing the others she lowered herself to her knees and bowed her head to touch the group. It was more of a tactic to avoid looking at this woman and hiding what may escape her facial expressions, at least this way it looked as though the gesture was that of honor and respect. The frontal lobe of her brain was pounding ruthlessly against her forehead, it almost felt like her brain was trying to escape her skull… this was certainly not helping with the mood that Yuko had found herself in.
”I regret to inform you, Midori-sama, that we have failed in our mission to capture the mysterious figure skulking around the village. We had performed our investigation and had indeed found the person that we were looking for, the boy used a strange jutsu that I haven’t seen before that caused pillars of chakra to run along the length of a shadow and capture people when that shadow made contact with the targets. We had followed them into the nearby forest where I witnessed him summoning another man to his aid… though the man didn’t stay for very long before he vanished when Uani engaged our original target. He used his strange jutsu to disable Uani before I was able to capture him… unfortunately the other man came back and I was unable to keep the boy contained. They destroyed the summoning circle that was used to bring the man in before I had a chance to react.” There was a pause before Yuko added: ”There is no excuse for my failure, I am sorry.”
Yuko kept her forehead a hairs breath away from the dirt. She knew what was coming next, there would be punishment for her failures, in her mind this clan was just like her own. The idea was only reinforced with the fact that they had a child to help them fight wars. Yuko refused to give these people anything but her stoicism regarding this situation though. It was apparent that things were not going to change regarding this so she saw no point in raising any sort of stink about it. All she could do right now was supress her rage and continue the servitude that her Elders appointed her with when they sent her off on this exchange experiment. Yuko Theme Hush love, hush love,

Inari
Aramori Inari's head spun even more then it had been as they were suddenly wisked away to appear in front of Midori. This was getting rediculous. "Geeze who IS this pip squeak." he moaned grabbing his head. As the kid tried explaining what had happened he felt his head reel even more trying to keep up. Finally he could take it no longer. He could hear Yuko explaining something and apologizing but he couldnt make out alot of it. With a final spin Inari reached out for whatever he could find and ended up finding something about the perfect hieght to sit on. So he took a seat waiting for his head to clear. "Ugh... my head... to put it simply midori sempai, we found a guy, I kicked him, I got caught by some weird jutsu... made my boddy freeze up... Uani landed on my head... I woke up with a splitting headache an unconcious leader a downer for a third and a pipsqueak popping around like a ferrot in the brush... oh and there was a red headed girl... didn't get her name... she one of us? the villagers were treating her in a strange manner, maybe we should have captured her too..." he said slowly trying to clear his head. As he started to lean he went to grab onto the edge of whatever couch he had sat on. His hand finding something soft instead... and round. Thats weird... whats this... in fact.... did any furniture survive the attack? he thought his eyes opening wide for a moment. "What am I sitting on..." he said lazily. Looking to his left he found he was sitting on Yuko. On the other hand he had a handfull of... "The hell you doing down there i'm the one who got hit in the head... or maybe you caught me. I know your nice but thats just creepy. Thanks though." he said with a smile moving his other hand away. Turning to Midori he sighed, he could feel how tense Yuko was, whther that was his fault never crossed his mind but he had a feeling it was the kid. "Hey uh... whered this brat come from anyway I've never even heard of him before... besides last i knew kids so young weren't even aloud to start training let alone be a shinobi... and the hell was that jutsu my heads still spinning." he said not moving from Yuko's back. Partially to give her a reason to stay down but mainly because he was afraid he would fall if he stood up... or that she would kill him. Don't take everything so seriously

Location: Senju Compound~~~~"Every failure is a chance to improve yourself...
~~~I'll never give up until I'm the best that I can be!"~~~~~~~Uani Theme: Kiseki Hajimari
As Uani opened her eyes, she held her throbbing head. It was still in quite a bit of pain. As she looked around at first she was dazed and confused, last she remembered she was in a forest, and now she definitely wasn't...
"Huh? W-where am I?"
It took a few seconds but Uani was able to see Midori-sama and Zasso-sensei. Someone must have shifted them back...wait a sec, that didn't make sense... You couldn't shift that far away, or while holding two people...plus neither Yuko or Inari could even shift like she could. Then...why wasn't she still in the forest? Well, maybe she had just hit her head really hard and gotten knocked out and someone carried her there...it wouldn't be the first time something like that happened. She also noticed the weird little kid that was with them...never saw the kid before, then again it wasn't like she knew everyone in the village.
"Midori-sama, Zasso-sensei! What are you guys doing here? Wait, what am I doing here? ...Wait...where am I? And...who's the kid? And...why am I asking so many questions? Oww...my head hurts..."
Uani then turned around towards where Inari and Yuko were. She was surprised to see her clanmate not only sitting on their friend and teammate, but where his hand was positioned was...not something Uani approved of...
"Inari! What are you doing!? Get off of her!"

 "Fear not the damage of nature.."
"Please, sit there."
She gestured to a completely empty space. With a joyous laugh Dengen jumped into a hand stand position before digging a single hand into the earth and twisting; as if he was turning some great key. Three chairs were summoned forth from the very earth, each comfortable looking and surprisingly well padded for chairs conjured from earth.
Midori poured the tea quietly and patiently; handing them each their cup in turn. If any of them tried to refuse seating, she politely took their hands and guided them any, before kneeling squarely to face all of them.
"My goodness me, it sounds like we all had a rather eventful day today didn't we? As for your report, Yuko very informative, Inari rather direct and plain. Both are more than acceptable and are appreciated. Young Mistress, your courage and loyalty to you clan is spoken in volumes through your actions well done. Yuko I have heard you performance was exemplary and above the call of what an ambassador is expected of or required. You have my highest regards and humble thanks."
What happened next would widened the eyes of the Aramori and stricken the Hyuga. The clan leader of the Senju, bowed to them, three children of genin level. It was formal and her head touched the ground before coming back up. Upon rising she looked as if a great weight had been lifted from upon her shoulders.
"To answer your questions in turn, you were sitting on the ambassador of the Hyuga, the child is a product of the village and you would have to ask him; he is rather inventive with his own jutsu and no one else seems capable of mastering them.
Your are in the pavilion we have erected as a base of operations, we are here to run them, and his name is Shizukana Dengen, jounin instructor. Because you are an inquisitive young woman ever seeking the betterment of yourself and the future of the Aramori, something I respect."
Nodding politely and smiling softly as to a hidden joke, she poured herself from tea and took a sip. Three of them would notice as they drank the tea, they were feeling revitalized, hell even stronger than they were before. As if the rest the night before was perfect and left them full of energy, only without a night's rest. Zasso's nostrils emitted puffs of smoke every now and again, never moving a muscle and remaining quite still. Meanwhile, Dengen was hopping about his from making silly faces trying to break the elder's steely form. So far he was not successful. With a slightly sad look in her eyes, Midori continued.
"Inari, Uani-senpai; I regret to inform you there has been a happening that requires your presence, I am afraid no other can accomplish this. Could you help me with this?
The way she asked sounded more like a mission, however, was still trying to give them a choice. She looked over at Zasso who in turn nodded, procuring a sweet to distract Dengen with before walking passed the two pink haired children, beckoning to follow him. The smell of his odd cigarette would once again stifle their sense and make them light headed, but the jounin instructor never slowed and expected them to follow.
"Yuko-Ue, something troubles you and I am afraid that it may have been something in my hospitality that has offended you; the problem arose between the time of our last meeting and your return with Shizukana, truth?
Please, speak plainly to me as you would your own reflection."
Midori looked patient, concerned and worried, not as a facade of a political leader but as a sister who had offended the younger. Dengen was in the corner playing some game in the dirt while enjoy his delectable treat.
"Up from the destruction, a new spark of life emerges."

The captain yelled, heave ho, heave ho, and tied me down with sheets,
A storm is brewing in the south, its time to go to sleep.
His Berth, it rocks, heave ho, heave ho,
The ocean gnashed and moaned
Like Jona will be swallowed whole
and spat back teeth and bones.Yuko HyugaInari didn’t quite piss all over generations of Hyuga tradition by showing such level of disrespect by not only sitting on Yuko as she was in a submissive, apologetic position as was custom and tradition, nor did he quite jump the shark with his arrogance and rudeness by grabbing Yuko’s butt in the process… but he came really close. Yuko, still having a vicious head ache and shown such a level of disrespect as what was given to her at this moment was in no mood for humor or a** grabbing playfulness.
”Get off.” Her tone was heavy and full of venom, if Inari was afraid to get up off her because he feared her wrath, her tone would suggest that if he didn’t get off that his fear would come true regardless. She was clearly in no playful mood. While he was sitting on Yuko, something hard and bumpy brush up against his buttock, it moved as though it was a sea serpent just breaking the surface of the ocean before going back down again. It almost felt like her… spine… but that would be impossible considering that he was sitting on her in a way that he could feel it, and just like its owner who was still showing fealty for her failure, it didn’t move at all. It was there only for a moment before it was gone again, as though he was hallucinating from being so tired.
When the atmosphere shifted, she found herself being led to a seat before Midori had done the gesture that she herself had just finished doing, to be honest, she wasn’t sure what to make of this, everything here was so upside down and twisted from her own clan, and yet the thing that bothered her the most was still present and glaring her in the face. She continued to wear her stoic mask as things played out around them. Yuko hadn’t taken any of the tea, she was far too tired from the day’s activities and the fight to be hungry or thirsty. She just folded her hands on her lap and continued to keep her eyes on Midori as she went on until she finally came up to Yuko and asked her why she was so upset. Yuko closed her eyes for moment before slowly opening them and looking over towards the child who was playing in the corner. She had dropped the tone of her voice so that Midori could hear it, but the boy wouldn’t, she didn’t wish to interrupt him with his play, nor did she wish to make him feel bad about himself because of her own thoughts and feeling on the subject.
”Having a child his age in a military organisation offends me deeply,” She started heavily, yet still took on her more gentle, usual tones. She honestly hoped to get away from such a thing when she came here from her clan, but it was obviously not meant to be. ”A child of that age, should never be allowed to put themselves in this much danger, willing or not. They should be playing and having fun, not enslaved to an adult world where death could be awaiting every mission. It’s shameful, and disgraceful that a clan should need to have children to swell its ranks. I may have been brought into the shinobi world without my wanting, but I’m an adult and though I am young and I am old enough to accept responsibility and know full well the extent that my actions –and their consequences- have upon the world of the shinobi. It is what separates me from a child. But they… to raise them in shadow of violence like this. It makes me sick. Even if this was their ‘choice’ they can’t understand the full implications of their actions and thus, they shouldn’t be allowed to join in a military. Where is the wrong in letting them play and grow for a few more years, why can’t we just… let them dream for a little while longer before the harshness of the world swallows them whole.” Yuko paused before she looked at Midori for the first time sense she started her thoughts on the matter. It’s the same in my clan, when the branch family’s heir has their third birthday the members of the branch family are branded with this mark. I can understand the reason for the brand, I really can. If the Kekkei Genkai of my people falls into rival clans hands, then it could be the end of my clan. But… to force the children to become the protectors of the village when they are still so young… that is a burden that I don’t wish on anyone. When I was asked to come here I was happy… I could get away from that, I didn’t… have to see dreams washed away with violence. But… I found it here as well. I guess cruelty happens in every clan, no matter how they claim themselves.” Well, Yuko was asked for her thoughts and she gave them to her. Whether she liked it or not, whether she was offended or not, it didn’t matter to Yuko when it came to this subject, she felt that it was something that should be fought for, she probably skipped over some of her darker feelings when it came to that, but at least Midori would have gotten what she asked for, Yuko probably showed how tender her heart was too. It was one of the reasons that she would likely make a poor shinobi, but was obviously forced to be one anyway. Yuko wished she could just… go to bed or something. She was tired and exhausted, she wanted to relax a little before she was pushed into another conflict… she wanted to see the ocean again too… she missed home, in a way. But right now there was no time for sentiments like that. Yuko Theme Hush love, hush love,
Here's your gown,
There's the bed, lanterns down
But I don't want to go to sleep,
In all in my dreams I drown.
