Welcome to Gaia! ::

“ Why did we land here out of all the villages,.. It’s cold, wet and the village isn’t burning to the ground like last time,” Matsuri said as she sat in wet puddle, landing there after Drago had made everyone leave his house. She was surprised that the two hadn’t landed in Hidden Sand or some where nice. Hidden Rain was just so,… Wet. The younger female could only give a small sigh as she stood up from the ground, then looked around wanting to find her other half.
“Ryuko where did you go,…” She said in a singing tone as she walked in the rain, heading down a small street. The female then stopped when seeing a white blur up ahead. Shaking her head ‘no’ she could only walk about to Ryuko, making a ‘tsk’ sound with her mouth. “ You know wearing a white dress in the rain with your skin tone was a bad idea.”


“ My poor dress…. It’s too late to change because everything else I have is lather, venal and they smell bad when it’s wet. Plus all my cloths are back at the base or at home,..” She said with a small sigh only to glance up, feeling the droplets of rain hit her face. “ I wanted to came back here because the voices in my head where whispering to me.” Ryuko explained as she brought up her left hand to her head as if she felt some kind of pain.

“ What did they whisper this time?" Matsuri asked as she stared at the older female in confusion. Every time she traveled with her other half to this village she acted odd. Either depressed, insane or just in a mood to play doctor. It was just weird knowing that she was half of her sometimes.

“They whisper something about the end but I’m not sure what end it could be. They say that we should play with others during that time… So many fun games to play.” She said while glancing towards Matsuri as a small smile appeared on her lips. The female then placed her head on the other females shoulder, letting it rest there. She wasn’t tired, just she was getting a small head ache. The rain drops hitting her skin over and over was starting to annoy her. Plus being wet and cold was a minus. “ Don’t be mad Matsuri but I wanted to come here because I thought they would be here. All of them where here last time, killing each other so happily. Do you remember the snow and the blood pouring down from the sky? Made me want to dance,” She said as her soft smile continued, even when she moved her head from the females shoulder. Ryuko then started to walk ahead, stopping when they where underneath a small ramen stand .


"So in other words we should thank Drago for having the party of the year, huh?” She asked while laughing abit to herself. She didn’t care if the party had any reason for that or not. She was just happy that the older male seemed to be in abit better spirits then the last time she saw him. Ryuko had told her all about the talk the two had. She personally found it interesting but still rather non existence to her interest. Unless Drago or his ex lovers limbs where falling off , sick, or dead then it didn’t really matter to her. Fallowing Ryuko towards the ramen bar she could sit down , ordering a round of tea and some warm soup.

Ferraku jumps off the boat into the a forest near the hidden rain village. Ironically it is raining quite heavily within the forest, Ferraku begins to walk through the woods and he gazes up at all the dead trees towering above him. "Something tells me this forest is old, real old." Ferraku said continuing to walk on the muddy ground that is the forest floor. Before Ferraku knew it he found himself surrounded by torches, camps, and houses. He had entered the rain village without even realizing he had done it. He walked around the rain village for a long while until he found their library. He removed his head band and entered the library, he found a book utilizing techniques with senbon. Ferraku's clan was renowned for using senbon so he grabbed the book and checked it out at the front desk. However, Ferraku had no intention of ever returning this book to them. He walked out the front door of the library while reading, after looking at many of the techniques he realized he would need a special kind of parasol to use most of them. He then ventured onto a shinobi weapon shop. He bought two curved kunai, and one of these parasols, they were quite pricey. Ferraku then wandered through the village until he came to a mountain. He saw a large peak not to high up on the mountain. Ferraku focused chakra on his feet and ran straight up the rock face for about ten minutes before he reached the large peek, when there he opened his book and began to train. 20,283+267=20,550

Ferraku turns around and takes a deep breath of disappointment. "Your not nearly as sneaky as you might think, I am disappointed. Is this all a Jounin of the hidden moon has to offer in power. Ferraku then molded chakra on his feet and walked up about a thousand more feet until he came to a second plateau. There he took the parasol from his back and pulled out his book from his pack, he flipped through the pages until he found an interesting jutsu that he desired. Kouu Senbon, this technique showers needles down at the enemy. He realized then he had not read the instructions on how to use the parasol yet. He pulled out a folded brown piece of paper he had got at the store. It is now soaking wet cause it was in his thin pocket. He unfolds it and begins to read, "In order for the parasol to work properly one must embed an immense amount of chakra within it and do this series of hand signs before using it." Ferraku reads on the brown piece of paper he then looks at an extensive amount of hand signs, he counted them there were 54. He begins to pack chakra away in the parasol while focusing deeply allowing for maximum chakra flow. After about a full twenty minutes of molding chakra in the parasol he begins the long series of hand signs while he holds the parasol. Finally after he is does with the hand seals, he unhooks the parasol so it spans outward. He then looks at it observing it and then he attempts to try a jutsu while using it. He looks to his book and reads. "Throw the parasol into the air do these seven hand seals and the technique will take place." The book says, sure enough Ferraku throws the umbrella into the air and does the seven seals. "Kouu Senbon!" He says with a large amount of motivation in his voice, the umbrella spins in the air and fires out several needles, but the parasol soon loses balance and is blown back to the ground near Ferraku. Ferraku grunts very displeased by the lack of success he had on such a simple jutsu. He picks up the umbrella and begins to mold chakra into it, he focuses deeply trying to keep the chakra flow balanced. "Isoga you should learn some new jutsus too." Ferraku says as he throws a second book at him, that Isoga did not see him grab at the library. It is labeled basic techniques of the hidden rain village. 20,550+432=20,982
(432/800 Kouu Senbon)

Ferraku takes stance in the middle of the plateau, as a rain ninja descends onto the plain from high above. The shinobi of the rain draws a katana out of its sheath and points it at Ferraku. "The hidden mist shinobi are not worthy to enter this village, and because you have entered, your going to die. The rain ninja dashes forward, he is obviously faster than Ferraku. Ferraku draws three needles in his right hand and takes his sword in his left. The rain shinobi jolts behind Ferraku and lunges at him cutting down. Ferraku pivots putting his sword up to block, as soon as there blades are locked Ferraku throws the three needles nearly point blank. The rain ninja vanishes from sight and the needles fly over the cliff into the rain. Ferraku looks around wondering where the rain shinobi will come from next, the enemy ninja appears dashing at Ferraku. Ferraku jumps right to his side then lunges forward swinging his blade down at his opponent. The rain ninja jumps back and as soon as Ferraku's blade hits the ground the rain ninja swings the back of his fist flailing the bottom of Ferraku's jaw. Ferraku flies back and lands on his back, the rain ninja throws a kunai at Ferraku. Ferraku blocks it with his sword and flips back onto his feet. Ferraku stakes his sword into the ground and starts doing seals incredibly fast, the rain ninja takes off running towards Ferraku. "FUUTON KAZE KEN!" Ferraku yells, a blast of wind explodes, the rain ninja has a fair amount of armor on and puts his sword in the way to absorb the attack. Many of the wind blades clash with his armor as he is blown back by the technique. Ferraku realizes the shinobi before him is indeed a chunin ninja. Ferraku does not lose faith despite being out ranked, he is a prodigy who will attain the rank of Mizu Kage and liberate the mist. Ferraku does more hand signs, "Mizu Bushin No Jutsu!" He says releasing a plentiful amount of chakra. Three clouds of smoke pop up and three water clones emerge to fight along side Ferraku. The three clones run in and Ferraku does hand seals once more. The rain ninja smirks as the clones charge, the rain ninja throws his sword into the air swings his arms forward, two hooks fire out of his sleeves at the right and left clones. The left clone dodges by dashing to the side, however the right clone is cut in half by the hook. The clone dashes in stabbing in at the rain ninja. the enemy shinobi flips into the air and taps his foot against his falling sword and it drops down impaling the center clone. He then lands on the ground and pulls his sword out of the ground where the clone use to lay. The remaining clone dashes in slashing and just as he does, "Kirigakure No Jutsu!" Ferraku shouts and mist covers the plateau. The rain ninja leaps into the air getting out of the mist cloud. Ferraku does more hand signs concealed within the clone. "Suiton Mizurappa, TSUIN!" As he says it two streaming jets fire out of the cloud at the rain ninja, the shinobi pulls out his katana to intersect the attack. His sword blocks them, but the force sends him flying back into the stone wall with a crash. He slides down the wall and uses chakra on his feet to absorb the impact as he lands on the plateau below. As soon as he lands within the mist Ferraku's clone dashing at him elbowing him in the face, the attack knocks his head back into the stone wall. The clone then slams his face into his knee and throws him into the middle of the mist cloud. An umbrella ascends into the air, and the clone dashes at the rain ninja swinging his fist. The rain ninja catches his fist and impales him through the stomach with his katana. "Kouu Senbon!" Ferraku yells and needles fire out at immense speeds. The rain ninja puts his arms in front of his face. Most of the needles bounce off his armor, but about a half of dozen of them stick into the places where he lacks plating. Ferraku dashes at him in the mist just after he is hit by the needles, he spins and throws his sword like a boomerang at the rain ninja. The sword cuts in on the right side of the rain ninja's chest and severs his right arm clean off and leaves a huge gash. Ferraku withdraws the mist to see the rain ninja grabbing the nub of his arm in agony. Ferraku walks up to him, his injury is so severe he is unable to fight any longer. "Judgment of my worthiness has been passed, you don't deserve to hold the title of shinobi." Ferraku raises his blade up and stabs the shinobi through the stomach. The rain ninja coughs up blood and falls dead on the large stone plateau. Ferraku is in a bit of shock, he has has seen many people die, many shinobi die, but never has it been by his own hands. Ferraku realizes he is a shinobi and he must kill, it is the code of the ninja. Ferraku unaware that he made a lot of commotion and a big scene with a mist technique not used by shinobi in the rain is surprised to see another rain ninja on the other side of the plateau. Ferraku smirks and does hand signs, "Mizu Bushin No Jutsu." Ferraku says, this time only two clones appear in the smoke. Ferraku orders the clones to rush the rain ninja. They dash at him swinging their swords in a quick manner. The ninja appears behind one of him as he over swings and knocks him off the side of the cliff. The other averts direction on the edge of the cliff and swings down at the rain shinobi. The shinobi hits him in the chest knocking him off the cliff before he can even begin his swing. Ferraku looked at the new shinobi in terror, this guy was on a whole new level then the last one. Ferraku realized he could not afford to engage this guy in close combat or even use a single jutsu that might miss. "Makyou Hyoushou!" Ferraku says loudly building up an immense amount of chakra, a full bottom row of eight mirrors appears around the rain shinobi, then three more on an inner ring above the other eight. Ferraku draws six needles in his hand, he then in a flash appears above the rain shinobi throwing them down. The rain shinobi dodges with ease and dashes up at Ferraku, but Ferraku reappears inside his mirrors before his foe can even come close to hurting him. Ferraku now holds his parasol and his sword in his hand, his parasol flies up into the air and just begins to spin. Ferraku dashes at the man appearing behind and cutting up at him. The man knocks his blade away with a kunai and punches Ferraku with immense strength directly in the face. Ferraku rockets back into an ice mirror whacking his head against and ricocheting forward and landing on his hands and knees. Ferraku coughs up blood, he looks shocked that the man could do that with a single hit. Before Ferraku can recede into his mirrors the man grabs his shirt collar and throws Ferraku across the plateau and off the side, Ferraku's life lays in the balance as he is beginning a thousand foot drop. The rain ninja smirks a top the plateau, but Ferraku comes floating back up to the rock surface standing a top his spinning umbrella. Ferraku does hand signs while on top his umbrella than jumps to the rock landing. The rain ninja charges at him and Ferraku rages with an enormous amount of chakra, stretching his very limits. "GUFUU SU...IKAAAAAAAAAAA!" Ferraku yells with an astonishingly loud voice, all the rain gathers into a huge water typhoon and it blasts at the rain ninja. The rain ninja attempts to dash to the side, but the typhoon hooks his leg and drags him into the cyclone. Moments later he is thrown out of the jutsu remaining only as a mutilated corpse. Ferraku realizes many shinobi could of seen that jutsu, he takes off down the mountain. When he reaches the bottom he avoids the village and heads to the forest. Ferraku runs into the forest and a full platoon of rain shinobi appear around him. "Identify yourself!" The shinobi shout at him, Ferraku takes his head band out of his back pocket and ties it on his forehead. With a look of confidence on his face, the rain shinobi smirk at his arrogance. Two of them dash at him, Ferraku uses Anatsu Odori, dodging them both and appearing distance running through the forest. Ferraku does hand seals while he runs. "Kirigakure No Jutsu!" Ferraku says using up a huge reserve of his chakra, an incredibly thick and large cloud of mist besets upon the forest. Ferraku dashes left and runs through the woods, when he gets a significant amount of distance away from his pursuers he loops back around to the docks. He runs into the ocean heading for the channel he found before. Ferraku finds a board full of hunter nin from his very own village and jumps aboard, he pants and sighs with relief as the boat heads to take him back home. 21,360+1,604=22,964

All at once, several white crystal obelisks, seething with the element of fire behind them appeared, striking upwards through the ground like lightning. From these obelisks several men are spawned an hour, starting off as Crystalline golems before taking the form of Hido Nara.

The sky over head darkened with clouds ready to burst into tears, a slight breeze making the long grass dance, the village Hidden in the Rain's regular atmosphere. Out in the plains, Oro sat in a rather large tree out of a small group of large trees. The leaves above his head and on the branches below rustled with the wind. But Oro remained in a solitary position the entire time, letting only his hair and cloak blow with the wind. His orange mask could be seen quite easily is this environment full of nothing but cool hues. The black hole over his right eye was the focal point is one were to look at his face. He simply waited for something, because he had the strangest feeling that something or someone was coming. That was when he noticed a Shinobi appear and begin to run in his direction. Rather than make himself seem so obvious, he would wait and see if the ninja noticed him.
