Sarutobi Mokkuzai
Redwood of the Mist
テキスト翻訳
Suiton| Mokuton| Earth l ANBU l  Sighing aloud as he gently hung the lanterns, Sarutobi stepped back to look at the picture of his sensei. "Is this your way of getting back at me for being difficult?" Jesting a bit, Sarutobi bowed once more to leave. He had no intention of looking for Masaki; he knew that it was a lot to internalize and that there really was no point in aggravating the boy further. Picking up a dumpling stick being handed out by one of the vendors, he stuck it in his mouth and placed his hands in his pockets. He wandered around for a bit albeit aimlessly before deciding to sit at one of the sake stands and have a drink or two .
As the man brought him one of the small sake bottles, he nodded in thanks and poured himself a little cup. Sipping it as he listened to the music behind him, he shook his head as he stared down at the counter. The boy was clearly not pleased and in fact would probably be a bit of a hassle for a while. He decided that perhaps after the competition or maybe even after he was on a mission, Sarutobi would speak to him again. Nothing seemed to ease the mind of a shinobi than a future goal, and Sarutobi certainly didn't want the next time they spoke to end as it did this time.

White Fang of the Mist
Kirigakure no Sato || Suiton || Hatake Bloodline || White Chakra Manipulation|| Snake SummonerSpeed Shinobi Capabilities || Battle Support Specialist || Summoning Specialist“Those who dare bring harm to my friends, my village, and my way of life…”xxxx"Sounds like a plan." Yamatano remarked as Kaizen (And three other Kaizens) Walked past him with barrels of sky-candy. Whilst Kaizen had taken the fireworks, Yamatano had gone after Kuro, the small snake having high-tailed it out of there the moment he bit the ANBU guard's leg. "Alright, lets go!" Yamatano said as he began to run from the stage with Kaizen and his clones close behind, sticking to the back alleys to avoid unnecessary exposure.
After much covert movement (as covert as one can be when carrying two barrels of explosives), the two were on the beach right next to the festival, the only light coming from the festival, the civilians too enamored by the lights to notice that a much more excellent light show was going to take place. While Kuro lay in the sand, happily munching on his beloved dango, Yamatano went to work on one of the barrels. Hidden Blade working like a crowbar, Yamatano slid the blade between the barrel and the lid, prying it off to reveal the wonderous TNT inside. "Jackpot." Yamatano muttered as he gazed at all the fireworks, unable to wait to shoot them off......until he realized that he couldn't do that. "Umm.....Kaizen? I don't have a flint or anything. Can you light these?

"We are the culmination of every choice we have ever made..." Standing to the side, Kaizen watched curiously as Yamatano used his new weapons, whistling once his friend had the lid open before saying, "those must come in handy." But as Yamatano proposed that he light the fireworks, Kai rose a surprised eyebrow before lifting a hand to his chin. After a moment, a smile spread over Kai's face as he reached into the folds of his kimono, producing an exquisite wakizashi, a blade given to him by Tares Demascus, forged by LT-sensei's own hands.
Drawing the blade from its sheath, Kai's eyes shifted to a brilliant crimson, as he began issuing orders to his remaining clones and Yamatano, "Set all the fireworks up in a line, make sure the fuses are easy for me to reach too, I want to get them all in one pass!" Lifting the blade out to the side, Kaizen poured a surge of Katon charged chakra into the blade, causing the length of the blade to burst into flame. Waiting off to the side while Yamatano and the clones placed the fire-works just right, Kai fell into a crouch, an excited grin covering his face. As Yama stuck the last fire-work into the sand, Kaizen cried out, "Here goes nothing!", before barreling forward, holding the flaming wakizashi out to the side to catch the fuses.
As he got to the half-way mark he could hear the first of the fire-works launching into the air, and so he pushed himself even faster, hoping to see as many of the explosives as they took flight as he could. Reaching the end of the line, Kaizen launched himself into the air, flipping over Yamatano's head to land lightly in the sand, facing the fire-works as they began to fly into the air, one after the other in rapid succession. Watching in amazement as the fire-works flew into the air, Kaizen released the flames which wreathed Tenchu Koutai, the first of the explosions lighting up the night sky. Looking back at Yamatano, Kaizen placed a hand on his friend's shoulder as he said with a smile, "It's good to be back home," before lifting his head back up to watch the brilliant display."... but sometimes, the right choice isn't always clear."

Lauren walked up to a table and ordered a glass of tea. She sat down admiring the people and events going on around her. She sat silently, when she heard a burst in the air. The bright lights of fire works filled the air, and Lauren couldnt help but let out a laugh. She finished off her tea, and carried on to some of the games.

(we're not technically in the village proper, we're at the beach, so while you would certainly see the explosions in the sky, you wouldn't actually see us)

White Fang of the Mist
Kirigakure no Sato || Suiton || Hatake Bloodline || White Chakra Manipulation|| Snake SummonerSpeed Shinobi Capabilities || Battle Support Specialist || Summoning Specialist“Those who dare bring harm to my friends, my village, and my way of life…”(Snuff, Lance and I are hidden from the rest of the festival, no one else can see us. The only thing anyone would be able to see are our fireworks.) xxxxYamatano raised an eyebrow as Kaizen started barking commands, wondering why he was so sure of himself until he saw Kaizen's sword flare to life. "Alright!" he said as he joined the other three Kaizens in setting up the fireworks. Pulling his hood off his head, Yamatano stood at the end and, before he even gave Kaizen a go signal, witnessed him flip over him even as the first firework burst in the sky. Ignoring the nagging fear that the ANBU were going to be suspicious of some unscheduled fireworks going off about twenty minutes after two barrels of fireworks were stolen, Yamatano stared into the sky, listening to the boom of the fireworks, the oohs of the festival-goers, and the gentle crash of the waves as they hit the beach. Yamatano agreed with Kaizen: After so very, very long, it was good to finally have him home.
While their fabulous display continued to mesmerize the people of Kirigakure, Yamatano looked back to the still-unopened barrel, his fears finally getting the better of him. "So, Kaizen.....when do you think the ANBU will notice the missing fireworks?

As the roars of the crowd, the laughter of children, the explosion of fireworks rang through the night sky, there was one who was particularly not liking the festivities. However, this one person was there for one reason...to find her beloved cousin. Weaving through the crowd of the village, she gripped tightly unto the vial that was safely tucked in the pockets of her shinobi attire. She was not wearing the traditional kimono expected for women to wear during such occasions, but was instaed wearing battle ready attire. There was too many people here, all gathered in one place. Slowly but surely she felt her mind wanting to snap, wanting to rampage, wanting to smell and taste the bittersweet that is blood. Taking out the vial, she stopped suddenly in her tracks and focused upon it. The ominous hue, the sinister color that she was seeing seemed to comfort her senses and her lust for it. The thing about her, she was special. Not in the terms of being extraordinarily gifted...but a special case. Everyone handled her with much precaution and the only reason why she wasn't locked up in an insane asylum was because she was family of the Mizukage himself.
Only a single fragment was still pieced in her mind, the part of her that could somehow control herself...only slightly. That control faded in time, becoming worse and worse with every passing day. Its the reason why she has been gone for the better part of the year. Luo believed that through intense psychological care, the fragmented mind could be pieced back together. Unfortunately she was so far gone that the doctors called her a lost cause. However, the part of her that was still...for the most part sane, loved her cousin very much. For this reason she tried, she tried hard to use every tactic to control her animalistic urges. Finally feeling like she could continue, the 13 year old shinobi pocketed the vial and pressed forward. Seeing her cousin standing with his family in the distance, she quickly approached him. Upon reaching approximately ten feet from him, she placed her hands at her side and bowed. No longer were the days where she would jump into her cousin's arms, she was not five anymore and he required much more respect than that. Not uttering a single word, she awaited for permission to step forward to be closer to the Mizukage.

Damien Oweno {a.k.a Downer} Genin Taijutsu Sanbi
Tactical: (-3 posts for learning jutsu, reaction speed is one rank higher)
Speed: (Move, dodge, and attack speed is one rank higher, hard for anyone below Jounnin to even track these ninja) Damien was slightly taken aback by the ease with which the entire matter was settled. He pondered for a moment before shaking his head "No, I think that was my only problem. This entire ordeal, along with the festival as left me somewhat tired, I'm going to head home and think about what I've learn" He said decisively. He gave a curt bow, and murmured "Thank you, Lord Mizukage. Should you have need of me, you know where to find me." He then turned and walked in the direction of the apartments, ready to get out of these stuffy clothes and get some rest for tomorrow {EXIT to Apartments} (( ))

(Oh come on, LT, you can't be omniscient like that. You were talking to a genin when Yamatano began to follow Kaizen, and talking to someone else when the fireworks were stolen. LT didn't even know Yamatano was at the festival! You can't just suddenly know all the details of the theft in an instant, with no posts prior stating that you were following Yamatano or something like that.)

Luo Ushio
Pride Of The Mist
テキスト翻訳
Suiton| Ina Hassei Ryouken No Jutsu l Fire l Mizukage l Wind l Shark Summoner  Nodding as Damien took his leave, Luo figured he was too late to have the formal dinner with the genin anyway and allowed him to go home and think. Facing his cousin, he smiled genuinely and patted her twice on the head to allow her to stand and as if to say 'hello.' In the Ushio family, it's well known that very few like physical contact; and Luo and his cousin were no exception. Those who went on to become shinobi did not really like contact unless it was in combat. It seemed Luo was only comfortable with such affections if it was with his mother.
"Good evening Kairi, I see the kimono wasn't too your liking." His smile faded back into his normal expression as if to pout or frown for a moment until letting the feeling pass, his slight smile returning. "No matter, it's good to see that you came. I hope for the most part you've been enjoying yourself." As he attempted to begin his next sentence, the sky crackled and burst with lights as he muttered, "Odd..." As he looked up, he couldn't help but notice that the display was too large for this point in time in the festival. Looking over towards one of the stands he looked at the clock and sighed a bit muttering, "Seems like someone's managed to get into the explosives department."
Weighing his options for a moment, he held up his right fist for two seconds, opening his palm finally and waiting. As he did, three shadows seemed to meld upwards from the ground as Luo continued to stare up at the interesting display. "I'm heading to the main stage to end the festival since it seems the final fireworks display is underway. Do me a favor and find Tares and ask him to look into this for me. If he finds anything or anyone, bring them to me on stage for the village to see. Two of you keep a bird's eye view of the explosives keep if you can and track whoever thought this to be a bright idea so Tares can bring them to me faster." As his hand went down, he looked down at his cousin for a moment and pointed up and shrugged. "Well, at least they put on a decent show." Motioning for her to follow him to the stage and wait off to the side for him, Luo began walking casually towards where he was supposed to be, his pace and route causing those he passed to bow politely towards him for even a moment. His head was level with his goal of the front stage, and he pondered just who it could be that set them off.
"Jounin aren't allowed to drink on guard duty...actually no one is. Naturally that leaves Tares and every acting guard shinobi that was or is currently on staff out of the possibility of making some drunken mistake....that and none of them are stupid enough to do something like this. Most of the academy students were in the shinobi demonstration show across the way, by the time they even got close to the sight the guards would've deterred them. Masaki's too tired from training to bother with anything like this, Damien went home, and Tsukiakari knows better. So, since Kairi is right here, that only leaves a few possibilities. That in mind, Karis doesn't have pranking in her nature, neither does the young Yamanaka. This doesn't leave me with any concrete conclusions, but based on this I can determine this much: The acting shinobi was off duty and not a genin. This can be supplemented by the fact that it is unbeknown to any of them that I have canceled the light dinner with them; and it would be in their worst interest to pull something like this and then sit with me at a table. My assumption can be made here then: Whoever did this was a chuunin not assigned to guard duty or out of the country for a mission. It is likely they didn't act alone as a clone would only sustain against the guards for so long before being dispatched, leaving the individual in question with little distraction to continue with the plan. So, two chuunin not on guard, not on a mission, and prone to commit ridiculous misdemeanors...."
As Luo's mind seemed to flow quickly to put the pieces together in mere moments, he came to one substantial hunch; one that seemed to annoy him, and at the same time fill him with memories of the year which had passed. Without much thought to it he muttered aloud to himself, "Yamatano Hatake and Kaizen Minoru," his light smile ever present as he stared up at their spectacle.
