Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ryu smiled. "You seem slower to me." Suddenly he was behind Ogami. "Those weights i took off make me move at a level way above yours."

Ryu quickly grabbed him out, and released the barrier, setting him on dry land. "Well, that was fun." Ryu then made sure that he was breathing, then put the armor back on his boots. "We must not speak of this."

"I said it earlier." Ryu got up from putting his armor back on, and strapping on his swords. "He's one of my charges, and im not about to let him die, especially by my hand. As for taking care of him." Ryu made a few hand signs. "Art of Fire, Fire Clone Jutsu." A clone of Ryu appeared in a burst of flames. "He will take care of it."

A swirling vortex opens infront of Aki and Saluk falls out, battered and with Ryo's katana, stained with blood.
"Aki..." Saluk groaned, "Help...I opened...the seventh...Kyomon...I need...help..." Saluk lies motionless on the ground and his Sound and Leaf village headbands slide out in the open.

((I know, 3 pages in one day. Doesn't it rock?))

*Ogami lie still, completely lost in a coma, as he lay unconcious he began to dream about why he was sent to Konoha from his home in the Grass Village*

"Ogami, you got a letter from the Sound Village, i dont like the looks fo it either" Doku, his poison style, based teammate.

*Ogami promptly opened the scroll*

"My dear Ogami, I have been watching you grow since you were very little, i have spies everywhere, i've seen what you can do and what that Birthmark is capable of, I have plans yfor you and that amazing ability, i dont think you would comply so i took the liberty of captureing the one you hold dear, if you ever wish to see her again some to the Rice country and meet me among the peasants in the first village you come to" it was signed by a strange snake-like insignia.

"Ka...sumi?" Ogami said shocked.

"Ogami...you came." said a pale skinned ninja with golden snake eyes "My name...is Orochimaru. I have need of your skills, you probably dont know how long i've been watching you, its not everyday a mother died in childbirth and the baby has a...unique trait about them. I saw what you did to the academy students...your sensei...and the ANBU. I want you to finish what you started 16 years ago....it seems there are a few ANBU left who weren't present during your...rampage. I want you to kill them, kill them all. Do this and your precious Kasumi will be returned to you.

*Orochimaru did a few ahnd signs and thrusted his hand into Ogami's head*

"This will keep you under constant watch, and it will also allow me to fiddle and toy with your mind at will. go to konoha, in a building there a few of the ANbu that are left are forming a mission to the Wave country, go and i'll hopefully see you there...ta ta for you...my puppet"

Saluk was weak from fatigue. With a faint groad,he woke up and tried to stand. However, due to the massive strain on his body from opening the Kyomon, he fell backward and saw a strange villager with a rusted katana.
"Ryu..." he moaned... "Villager...behind..."
