Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Yes I hope that you will put those jutsu to fine use, considering the power they posses. But that all comes down to being a ninja, having the power and responsibility. You must know when and where to use your powers and for the right reasons. Hopefully you will understand this as tie goes on an your power increases. I know you will both makes the right decisions though. I am not worried about my two newest students!" Jiraiya beemed at them, they were perhaps the best he had had in a long time. They even helped him with his novel. "Now that I think about it, you guys can''t be my best students. My best resides here in Hidden Leaf. Maybe you should seek him out to train with, he is a handful, but a very powerful little guy. I think you could learn alot." Dawn and Knight seemed to think it over. Dawn would have liked to stay and learn more from Maser Jiraiya. Knight wanted to prove to this other studen that he too was powerful, and Jiraiya's best pupil. "I want to find this other kid you speak of," said Knight breaking the silence, "Where do you think I could find him?" Jiraiya thought about Naruto and where he usually was hanging out. One place instantly popped into his head. "The Ramen shop near the center of the city. He is almost garunteed to be there." Knight nodded and turned, and started to walk. He was surprised to see Dawn did not follow along. "I am going to stay here with Jiraiya and learn more jutsu. I will catch up with you later brother." Knight Waved good bye and headed out of the alley that the practiced Toad mouth Binding on. He was thought how much he wanted to spa this other student.

FInding the ramen Store was not as hard as Knight thought it was going to be. He just continued to head back they way they came the way before. Past the hotel. It was acually located in the square were the man with the bomb was subdued by the ANBU agent. Thinking of the event made Knight tingle. He wanted to be an ANBU no matter the cost. He had dreamed about it the night before. Forget Dawn's Personal fame crap. To be a ninja was to be secretive and powerful, as the lady described it. THe first step to Knight was to defeat this pupil at the ramen store in a fight and tell jiraiya. He will be so proud after that news. After a few more minutes of wandering, Knight finally found the spot. The big sign said world's best ramen and there were a few people sitting inside. Knight wondered which one would be this famed student of jiraiya's. There a few men, "no Jiraiya said he was young." He murmered to himsellf. There were some kids, especially one standout in the Orange jump suite. He had yellow hair, "That must be him." Knight approached the punk and tapped him on the shoulder. "You jiraiya's boy?" He spat at the ramen eating ninja. "Yea whose asking chump?" He stood up and looked at Knight. "I am, I am his new student and He said your his favorite. I'm here to change that." Knight let his challenge slap Naruto in the face. "I'm naruto, and no one will defeat me..."

Knight was curtious and let Naruto finish up his ramen. Then the two headed to a grassy area outside of the main city, but withing Hidden lead's borders. Naruto got in his ready stance as Knight rushed in. Naruto jumped and did a spin kick, and Knight ducked right before it took off his head. He rolled and created distance, but Naruto was already closing the gap fast. Just as he recovered, knight was hit to the face with one of Naruto's jabs. As he fell back, Knight grabbed his arm and pulled him down. Putting his feet on his chest, Knight rolled and kicked, launching Naruto into the air. He landed hard and for a moment Knight thought the fight was over. He was mistaken as Naruto jumped right back up. Naruto broke two sticks off the tree and cleared them of branches, tossing one to Knight. They now had make shift staffs. They approached slowly and met in a flurry of timber. The friction was heating up and every so often a yelp would escape due to a stray finger getting clipped. It was A lossing battle for Knight, he wasn't too skilled with a staff, and Naruto was quick. He suddenly dropped and SLammed Knight in his shins. He fell but caught himself and blocked a blow coming to his face. He pushed off Naruto's staff and squng it around quickly to the side of his head. Tears welled in Naruto's eyes out of the pain. He jumped back and then charged Knight, his stick poised to stab. Knight side swiped the blow, but that was naruto's plan, for as soon as the two pieces of wood touched, naruto let go and jumped on Knight, barraging his face with blows.

Knight was getting hammered and suddenly the urge to fight left him. He started to say uncle and Naruto got off. Knight was embarrassed with his defeat. Jiraiya had obviously trained his student well because Naruto was strong. They had not even been using jutsu either, which Knight was sure the training Naruto recieved was based on. His face swelling, knight apologized. "I'm sorry to have confronted you like that. Jiraiya was good in training you and I should not have pre-judged your abilities. Good fight." Knight bowed and turned to leave. "Wait a second, come back." Naruto said walking toward Knight. "I', sorry about your face, I shouldn't have gotten so serious towards the end. I was just disapointed that I was losing. It is a bad habbit of mine." Knight smiled and shook his hand. Knight like Naruto, he was a very strong ninja indeed and infact he was more similar to himself than he would ever know. They both had an incredible urge to be stronger and neither would stop until they were the best. THe only difference was that Naruto was alone, while Knight had Dawn. He had a brother that Naruto would never have. That's what made Knight stronger, the constant compettion put on him by his sibling. "I wanna make it up to you, how about I teach you a powerful jutsu?" Knight smiled

Back in the alley, hours ago before Naruto and Knight started their duel, Knight had just left. Dawn turned around to face Jiraiya. JIraiya was pleased that this brother had chosen to stay with him. He wanted to teach today, he was in a giving mood after all. HE begun to look Dawn up and down, figuring which jutsu would benefit him the best. Then, his eyes suddenly stopped on his hair. It was a striking White, like his own. This was good, not that hair had anything to do with it but atleast it caught his attention and would bring him to his next technique. "What nice hair you have,: Said Jiraiya patting Dawn on his head, "That will do just fine for our next jutsu." Dawn smiled. How odd it was to use Hair? It was a good tactic though, as the enemy would most likely not be suspecting a techique using folicals. "This jutsu is used for defense, as offensivly it isn't too easy to deal with." Jiraiya did the hand seals for his mystery and his hair grew to an amazing length, flowing down and covering his whole body. Then it hardened. And After Hardening Needles came up, sharp as daggers. Dawn smiled at this amazing feat. He then asked Jiraiya to run threw the handselas once more so he could memorize them. Then he focused his chakara and this hair grew and hardened. However that was all. "Now focus your chakara to your hair and picture a porchupine." Dawn did this and the dagger like spikes emerged. "Amazing." He said.

Back with Knight and Naruto, they were underway with their training. After the apology, Naruto felt like he owed Knight an apology and offered to teach him a secret technique. Naruto himself learned it against the rules, so Knigt had to learn it in secret too as it was a forbidden technique. "Well I know you know the Bunshin no jutsu, which will create a poofable clone that will disapear at a single touch. Well this one is the real deal. Kage bunshin no jutsu will create a clone that will be solid and real. However it will split your chakara in half and is very difficult to maintain. But it can also use jutsu. Its bitter sweet. But I will teach it to you because I feel you will be able to use it to your advantage." Knight nodded soaking in all the information. This was remarkable. A real clone? But it does use a lot of chakara up so he was going to have to be careful to use it sparingly. "Show me how to do it Naruto!" Burst out Knight, barely able to contain himself. Naruto smiled and ran threw the handseals a few times, so Knight could get the hang of them. Once he did that he told him to focus chakara like a bunshin clone but instead of focusing it on himself think of a shadow. With is real but still not at the same time. Knight did this and preformed the jutsu. The clone was formed and Naruto punched it in the face to show to him it was real. Knight tiredly laughed but was exhausted, he felt the drain that the clone had created.

Dawn also felt the drain and mentioned the sudden lack of chakara to Jiraiya. "He must be learning Naruto's crown move, the Kage Bunshin no jutsu. Perhaps we should find them?" Dawn agreed, he wanted to see what his brother was learning, and tell him about his new Hair technique.

(1,688 + 150 = 1,838 - 1,800 kage bunshin no jutsu and under world gaurdian spikes = 38 extra)

Hedoro stalked into the village, looking around but not really seeing. She had had a very bad day, and now her hunger was flaring up again. But even so, she wouldn't just attack anyone, that would be a good way to make far too many enemies for her liking. Instead, she was looking for someone she could attack, someone who likely wouldn't be noticed if they disappeared. Not a native of the village, a visitor, somebody without connections that would look for them sooner than she could leave. She looked at one person, then another, and another. But all of them seemed to belong where they were, like they were a part of the village. Or they were in the midst of a discussion with someone else. None of them would make good victims. She began to grow even more frustrated, as her hunger grew still higher. She debated forgetting about human victims, and just settling for eating a dog, but then remembered. There was a clan in this village, the Inuzuka, who had dogs as their allies. So that was just as problematic of an idea. Nearly vocalizing a growl, she paced forward quicker, then came to a halt as she saw a perfect victim. They were alone, and they had clothes that were almost as odd as her own, making it unlikely they were a local. Silently, she rushed toward them, wanting to make this quick so she could be rid of this infernal hunger. She leaped towards them in a move that was utterly inelegant, but effective, as she formed a mouth large enough to bite them in half.

Hedoro was surprised that they had never even noticed her approach until it was too late, but was not about to complain. As the life left the young human's eyes, she went to work, ensuring that she had gotten every last scrap of what had amounted to the novice summoner's life. Her hunger was sated, for now. Finishing by gulping down the entire fishing pole, as well as the large fish that the summoner had somehow snagged during the attack, she finally felt her hunger go quiet once more. Looking down at the spot where once her victim had sat, she remained still for a time. She wasn't human or emotional enough to feel remorse, but even so, the young summoner had barely begun life. There was so much left that they could have accomplished. Of course, in her view, that merely meant they weren't quite ripe yet, but a meal was a meal, so she wouldn't give it another thought. Setting out once more, she rearranged her rags and scraps of cloth to hide her form once more. Oddly enough, she didn't appear noticeably larger, even after that large meal. It was just another sign that she was much different from anything even approximating that of a human. With her hunger silenced, she set out to leave the village.

Komen was warped to the Hidden Leaf village after a freak power that this strange god had used. He knew that things were some what not what he had wanted. He had destroyed a god but by doing so he had let loose the power of a much more melovolent god. He had the ability to disperse people in both space and time and relocate them wherever he wished. Komen sighed as he knew that defeating this man would have to be well planned. Komen was near the Anbu head quarters and started to walk inside. He saw that Shinobi were still doing some paper work and distributing various orders to the Anbu operators here in Hidden Leaf. Komen wanted to make sure that things were ready in case this god that called himself Loki would not be able to take this village. He had heard that some villages had been taken by this god and that the villagers were acting strange. They didn't have much of a chance to fight back and seemed to be fighting for Loki as if they were following a high ranking kage. Komen wanted to know why this was happening and he wanted to know what the hell was going on. Not only did he have to worry about the rise of Akatsuki and some of the other organizations, but he also had to run into the fact that this village was run by the old 6th Hokage, Tsunade. He knew that she didn't really like the job as Hokage, but it was better than not having a Hokage at all. He just hoped that he would be able to do some good and make this world a bit less complicated. He walked through the halls of the Anbu headquarters, walking toward the information heart of the Anbu.

Hoshiko would soon arrive at the docks in Konoha as she was reaching the near end of her training . Her emotionless eyes would look around her surrounding for a moment before she would continue on . It was a nice feeling that was in the air that helped Hoshiko relax a lot more . This would ultimately help her go though her training a lot faster . It wouldnt be long before the origami kunoichi would soon arrive at the gates of the village . Her first stop would most likely be that of the library so that she could gather some scrolls and continue to learn jutsu .

After a long stay in hidden leaf it was time for the young medical nin to begin her training.
The last couple of days Inori had been slacking with her training and needed to get the ball rolling . Inori's first stop on her training would be the konoha hospital . If she wished to be a medical nin she would have to be sworn in and that is exactly what she was planning to do once she reached the hospital . She would walk out of the inn that she was staying at and swayed her pink silver hair as she jumped off and make her way toward the hospital . inori had a jam packed day of training and knew that she would only be able to take oath before she would have to continue her training else where . inori would run through the semi packed streets of Konoha dodging people with every turn of the corner . She would have a long run before she actually reached the hospital . But the young medical nin was full of spirit and ready to begin her training . After she turned the last corner she would come to the Konoha main hospital . Walking through the sliding doors Inori would walk over toward the desk . When she reach the desk she would ask the lady stationed there about the swearing in of medical nins . The lady would point Inori in the direction that she needed to go . Witha thank you and a bright smile Inori would make her way down the halls of the hospital until she reached the room where she would be sworn in . Turning the nob to the door Inori would open the door and walk in to see a single medical nin standing at the head of the class . With a smile she would take a sit in the front row and wait for the ceromony to begin . Once the head medical nin in the room decided that it was about time to begin he would sit in front of Inori and pulled out a book . He would then begin to fill through a couple of pages until he reached the point in the book that he was looking for . " Alright do you swear to heal the wounded and protect your friends and comrade . Also be able to show loyal to your village and reduce death as much as possible . " Inori would just nod as the man went on with the swearing in of Inori . After a couple more minute inori would be finished with her swearing . Once she was complete she figured that she would head to the library and learn some jutsu from the avaliable scrolls.

Once Inroi found herself at the library it was time to look up a bundle of jutsu for her to learn . Walking into the main part of the library Inori would check in before she would start to go through all the scrolls that she wished to learn . Once she had gathered all the scrolls she needed she would make her way toward a nice spot to train . A nice open area that was free from noise which would allow her to train to the max . The first jutsu thaat Inori was going to learn was something that caught her eye as useful . The posion mist skill was it’s name . Opening up the scroll to read what she needed to do to preform this jutsu she would look over every word that was witten on the scroll before she would actually attempt to practice it .Once she felt that she was read Inori would flash together the handsigns needed to preform the posion mist skill . As she started to mold her chakra Inori would begin to inhale a large amount of ai through her nose and mix it with the chakra that was molded into her stomach . Once she felt that she had reached the level that she wanted she would clutch her hands together and expeled everything that was building inside of her into the open air . But it seemed that the young posion master had yet to understand the jutsu completely . Inroi would sigh for a moment before she would continue on with her training . She wouldn’t give up and would do what she had to do to learn this jutsu . Forming the handsigns needed to preform the poison mist skill Inori would clutch her hands together and inhale a massive amount of air through her nose as she molded the chakra in the depths of her stomach . Once she had felt that she had got the right combination she would expel the air she had previously inhaled . A foggy cloud of purple gas was expelled from the medical nin’s mouth that filled the air around her . A smille would come across her face as she had master the jutsu with only two tries .Now that she was finished learning this jutsu inori would close the scroll and place it with the rest . At the same time she would pick up another scroll which contained the next jutsu that she was going to learn . She would break the ribbon off the scroll and open it . Inori would once again begin to look over the scroll before she started to practice with it .
