 The carnage of battle is everywhere; a desert chokes the life of a once mighty and majestic forest nearly into nothing more than a desiccated husk of shrubs and broken stone. People have lost everything, but unity still remains weary but unbroken. However, the villagers and shinobi of the Senju need your held in order to accomplish this task; will you lend a hand to board those without so that they can pursue a better tomorrow? E-rank

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
"Alright, this is it...The moment of truth...I will not fail...I WILL be victorious this day!"
Uani's eyes narrowed as she prepared to engage her target. It had been a slippery one, every time she thought she had it, it would manage to slip away from her...which was quite a feat, it being stationary and all. This nail just refused to be hammered it! What was worse, her poor fingers were paying the price thanks to the traitorous partner she called her hammer. But she wouldn't let these setbacks set her back! She was here to make a difference! She held the nail steady one more time, taking the hammer in her other hand.
"I will succeed, I swear it! Nail! Prepare to get hammered!"
Uani swung the hammer, putting nearly all of her force into the swing. It probably would have been better for her to first tap the nail into place instead of just swinging full force right off the bat, but she was far from an expert in these things...actually one could say she had no idea what she was doing at all and probably shouldn't have been there... But the other people working sure found her entertaining to watch...
However, Uani seemingly got lucky this time, as she managed to miss her fingers and hit the nail on the head. The board that she was hammering to the frame of the shack they were building seemed to be held in place by the nail...she didn't do the best job of hammering it down, but it was the first time she succeeded.
"Yeah! I did it! I hammered a nail injury free!"
Sure, most of the others had almost finished building their walls and she had only put one board up, but still, this was progress. Uani celebrated her small triumph, lifting her hammer up into the air, however when doing so it slipped from her grip, flying up in the air right above her head. Uani's eyes went wide as she saw it start falling back towards her. There wasn't enough time to get out of the way, all she could do was try to shield herself with her arms... But the hammer didn't hit her, instead landing on the ground right in front of her.
"...*phew* That was a close one... But I'm still injury free!"
Uani took a half step backwards before she felt her foot come up against the board that she had just nailed in place. She turned around as her foot came into contact with it... Apparently she didn't do a good job, as bumping the wooden plank dislodged it and it was now falling...directly where Uani was standing. Uani's eyes opened wide in shock as the heavy board fell over right on top of her.
"............oww..."
Laughter erupted from the others as Uani managed to flatten herself. The girl hadn't actually been much help with the actual building project, but she certainly brought a lot of laughs. It was a good thing, after the tragedy in the village, people could use a few god laughs. As Uani tried to force the wooden board off of her, she felt it lift off, and saw one of the others extending a hand to help her up.
"Hey, I know you want to help with the building, but...umm...for efficiency's sake, it would be more helpful if you did something else. So when somebody needs a tool you get it for them, okay?"
"...Huh? Oh sure, whatever I can do to help!"
Uani didn't care too much if she was just fetching people's tools when the asked for them, whatever little way she could help she would. Also, this task seemed a lot less painful than what she was doing before...

Inari
Aramori  Once outside Inari didn't have much trouble finding what he was looking for. An area that looked as if the disaster had struck again. Except this disaster was small and pink instead. Lo and behold he found one Uani Aramori being pulled out from under a board. Walking over he pulled a hand from his pocket waving to her. "Heya head squirt hows the building going?" he asked with a grin. Motioning to Yuko who was following him he grinned, "This is Yuko Hyuga, you know the people who only see circles and such. I'm her escort for the day, heard you were around so I figured I'd bring her to meet you." he said with a grin. Don't take everything so seriously

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 had to admit that she wasn’t expecting someone so… young…. To be the head of the Aramori clan, but she bowed respectfully to the woman who looked like she had a rather bad run in with a construction site. Yuko held in her hands, just in front of her lap, a medical kit that she brought with her just in case… though perhaps it was more for the Head of the clan who seemed to live up to her reputation as someone was a little accident prone. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Aramori-sama.”
Yuko straightened herself up with a soft smile graced her lips. Most people would likely feel strange that they would address someone who was younger than they were with such honorifics, however, Yuko had grown up with the head of the clan who was seven years younger than she was, so it came a little more naturally for her. Most people would scoff, but she wasn’t one of them. Yuko looked around the construction site quickly and took note of how many people were starting to rebuild their homes… and the suspicious looks that were cast in her direction, something that she was going to have to get use to till she was able to prove herself and her clan’s trustworthiness. She turned her attention back to the small girl with the pink hair, bringing her right fist to her lips to hid her smile as she muted her chuckle at the assumption that she only saw in circles by Inari, she would never confirm nor deny such secrets of the clan, though even if they were false rumours she would say nothing. Their clan’s reputation clearly exceeded them. She lowered her hand and once more grabbed the handle of her medical kit. She wondered if there really was anything that she could do here after all? She would give an honest try before she scurried away in embarrassment.
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.

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 heard a familiar voice calling her 'head squirt', she turned to look at who it was. She didn't seem upset at him at all with his choice of words, Uani wasn't ever the type to let that kind of stuff effect her in the least. Besides, someone as young as her being the clan head, a genin level ninja at that, she knew not to expect people to treat her like the Senju clan head was treated.
"Ooh, Inari! You're just in time, we could really use more help here, and... huh? Who's this?"
Uani looked at the new girl as Inari introduced her. A Hyuga it seemed, Uani couldn't say she knew much about their clan...or anything for that matter. She probably needed to expound on her knowledge of other important clans... As Yuko greeted her, calling her Aramori-sama, Uani couldn't help but chuckle a bit. It certainly sounded weird having someone call her that, she was much more used to people greeting her as Inari did.
"Yuko Hyuga...its a pleasure to meet you too! And, you don't have to call me Aramori-sama...its...kinda weird. Actually its really weird... You can just call me Uani! So, Hyuga-san, are you and Inari here to help? We've got a lot to build before it gets dark! I mean, thats still, like...hours and hours away, but that doesn't mean we can just sit back and relax...isn't that right, Inari?"
Uani's gaze then went to Inari. She knew the boy was well known for slacking off from time to time. The look she was giving was like that of a mother would give a child they knew was hiding something.
"Well, I guess it doesn't matter if you were before, 'cause now its time to get to work! Don't worry, this stuff is easy!"
Uani took a look down at the board that she had just been pulled from underneath. She stared at it, blinking a few times.
"Okay, maybe its not that easy...and it can be a bit painful at times... but everybody needs our help! So lets do it!"
-------------------------Status------------------------- General Mood: Slightly hurt, but otherwise Fired up! scream

Inari
Aramori As Uani spoke about not relaxing and glared at inari it was obvious who she meant. "Yeah, yeah, I get it hhelp out and what not... This is definitely going to interfere with my nap schedule." he said in a bored tone. Looking around he saw a spot to help out. "Allright heres what we're gonna do. Since Yuko has no idea what tools are, and top squirt is prone to making things explode or break... Uani can get the tools and materials, meanwhile Yuko's skills in delicate medical practices means she would be good at hammering and such. Then after we build a wall I can use my earth jutsu' to prop up and reinforce the walls... any issues with that?" he said scratching his head. Walking over to a wall that was already finished by someone else he knelt down before creating a few quick handsigns. Then raising his hands he slammed them on the ground. As if hitting on the other side of a balance the earth beneath the wall flew up into the air to stand upright. Just to make sure it didnt just fall over on top of him he stood up and caught it with his hand. "There we go..." he said with a grin as a few of the other workers nodded and took over. Turning back to Uani and Yuko he grinned, "See just like that. I can help you guys with anything your not sure about though." he said turning more toward Yuko. Yuko would likely have the precision from her doctor duties but not the knowledge of tools, while uani had the knowledge of tools but the lack of precision. And I'm just awesome and can do everything. he thought with a satisfying grin. "Hey kid what about this wall of earth?" came the voice of one of the workers. Inari turned around with a slightly disbelieving look on his face. "Just push it over man it will fall back into dirt." he said walking over and placing his hand on the wall of rock he pushed it over and it fell into regular dirt. Don't take everything so seriously

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 Hyuga Yuko gave a soft smile to Uani as she enthusiastically jumped in to her introduction as well as trying to rope them into helping her build and reconstruct buildings with her. She was about to open her mouth and say something when Inari interrupted her thoughts and started to get to work. Apparently he was a touch sensitive about his laziness, though it did seem to give him a boost of motivation to get things done. Though… she was a little worried that he overestimated her abilities with the first aid, he seemed to think that she was some sort of field surgeon with her skills. A forced smile crossed her face as she brought up her right index finger to scratch the side of her face a little bit. He seemed to have planned thing out to the letter about how this was going to work, and for some reason Yuko still had a lack of confidence that things would go as smoothly as he was hoping, she wasn’t sure if she was going to be able to perform up the standards of the trio. She sighed and her shoulders slumped slightly. “With all due respect… Inari-san… I think that you’re overestimating my abilities with the medical precision, but… I’ll do what I can.”
She put down the first aid kit and looked around. Let see… was building a building like repairing a ship? She could repair ships with little difficulty, after all, that was her father’s trade growing up and she was one of the oldest ones so she had to help out a lot. Yuko grabbed up four small lengths of rope and lashed together a frame for the building, she really didn’t know what she was doing but she was doing what she knew best. After the works set the foundation into the ground and the cement was hardened, Yuko started to climb up the frame work like she was an old pro, using the rope to counter-balance her way up to the roof she once more started to lash some of the support beams to the frame. The construction workers looked at her as though she was mad, or perhaps with some level of curiosity as to what on earth this weird Hyuga girl was doing? When she was pleased with how sturdy the lashings were she rolled over, using her legs to wrap around the board she was formally sitting on, as she hung upside down she held out her hands.
“O-okay Uani-sama, I need a hammer and some nails, please.” Maybe this wasn’t going to be so bad after all. 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.

~~~I'll never give up until I'm the best that I can be!"~~~~~~~Uani Theme: Kiseki Hajimari "Hey, I do not make things explode! Break maybe, but never explode!...That would be pretty cool though..."
As Uani listened she couldn't help but think that Inari's idea was brilliant. Everybody doing their part, playing to their own skills, it seemed like the perfect plan. He certainly could be helpful when he was awake!
"Okay! That sounds like a good idea!"
Uani then watched as Yuko got to work. For a girl that sounded like she was very unsure that she would be able to help, Yuko certainly seemed to know what she was doing, a lot better than Uani had herself. She climbed up the framework of the house like a pro. She then called to Uani for a hammer and nails...after seeing what Yuko was doing it felt more than a little underwhelming just to hand her tools, but this wasn't about showing off, it was about helping make shelter for people.
"Umm, sure, Hyuga-san. Here you go..."
Uani sighed a little as she handed the tools over to Yuko... She wished she could do something that showed off what she could do too...for now she would just...hand stuff to people, she supposed...
-------------------------Status------------------------- General Mood: ...Actually a little bummed after seeing Yuko...
Actions: Handing tools to people who are cooler than me...
Thoughts: I hope I get a mission to steal something soon...

Inari
Aramori Inari looked on in amazement as Yuko seemed to go from shy little girl to circus monkey. Although it seemed that everyone agreed with his plan. Looking up at Yuko he grinned, "Was I wrong? I wonder about that... anyway our less likely to hit your thumb with a hammer is what I meant by it." he commented. Walking over he grabbed a hammer and a few nails of his own. Then he made his way over toward a half finished wall nearby. Turning he saw the disappointed look on Uani's face and a though struck him. "Hey Uani I don't think i have enough nails can you bring me a few more." he said with a grin. Waiting for her to come close he beckoned for her to bend down so she could hear better. "You should show them that while you bring people stuff. Bet that would make it more fun." he said with a grin. Focusing on the board in front of him he made sure it was straight before placing down a nail and in one swift motion hammered it in. He used his hands allot so he was good working with his hands. Though with the second nail he was a bit more cautious and slow hammering it in knowing that a moment so lucky wouldn't happen twice. Don't take everything so seriously

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 Hyuga Yuko wasn’t ignorant of the sudden shift of the mood that Uani seemed to display after Yuko did the preparation for the nails. She gently took the items that she was asking for. “What’s wrong, Uani-sama?” She asked with a hint of concern in her voice, she wasn’t aware of how she had accidently slight the leader of the Aramori clan. “You know, the boards shouldn’t move around anymore if you wanted to help by hammering the nails with me…”
Yuko waited a few minutes while she made her decision then rolled herself back up on the board that she was going to hammer, placing the nails in between her pressed lips, spare one that she planned to use to hold the board against the frame. After giving the nail a few firm taps to drive it into the wood, she was about to drop a level in the coolness factor. Now, just because she could do some fancy things with rope and scale such structures didn’t mean that she was any sort of awesome with the tools. Yuko positioned herself, making sure that her hands were nowhere near the hammer fall, at least that way if she missed… her fingers wouldn’t be victim to her lack of aim.
Thwack
Hmm… well, that’s alright, nobody was perfect…
Thwack!
Grrr…..
Thwack
Damn it all…!
ThwackThwackThwackThwackThwack!!
Yuko’s right cheek puffed out, the nail was hit once and the surrounding area of the plank was dented and pivoted from the violent wrath of the sweet Hyuga. Yuko’s eyebrows burrowed into the bridge of her nose as she studied the nail and its position, it was becoming painfully obvious that Yuko was in more need of a frying pan than an actual hammer. She slowed herself down and took a few more shallower hits to the head of the nail before she slowly back the hammer away, when the further and further away the less accurate her hits became. After beating the living hell out of the wood that was around the nail, she finally drove her target through both the pieces of wood. Yuko, despite her triumph, had a fierce look in her eyes that looked like it could catch the wood that she was sitting on, on fire. Flustered and frustrated, Yuko placed another nail not far from the successfully driven nail though her temper was starting to show through. It was a situation that was amusing to watch from afar but you certainly didn’t want to get in between her ever shortening fuse and the nails that were provoking her into almost a careless aggression.
The veins around her eyes bulged as she meant business. After all but destroying the frame to the house she pulled herself back and closed her eyes and put the hammer off to the side. She knew that she was starting to let her emotions get the best of her. She took a few deep breaths and tried to ignore the slight throbbing in the middle of her forehead. As she calmed herself down the veins around her eyes slowly went back down until they couldn’t be seen anymore. Yuko took one last deep breath before exhaling heavily before moving to the other side to nail the other side of the board… perhaps it was better to leave the lashings on after all this was done, just to be on the safe side… 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.

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 handed the hammer and nails to Yuko, the other girl noticed the change in Uani's attitude. Noticing that she noticed, Uani immediately put a big smile on.
"What's wrong? Nothing's wrong! Well, nothing serious thats worth worrying about! Except the fact that there are houses that aren't built yet! Thats very wrong and needs to be fixed right away!"
It might have seemed that Uani was just trying to hide the fact that she was a bit jealous that Yuko got to show off, it wasn't the truth at all. She was saying it as much to herself as to Yuko, negative thoughts weren't going to help anyone, so she just had to push them from her mind. Anyway, it was probably a good thing that Yuko got to show off, she was new there after all, maybe it would help her fit in better.
As she brought the nails that Inari had asked for over to him, but as she did, he whispered something to her, seemingly noticing her change of attitude too. He told her that she should show them that as she brought tools to people. Uani had to blink in confusion a bit...she didn't know exactly what he was talking about. It took her a few seconds, but then it hit her.
"Oh, you're talking about shifting, right? Heh, at first I thought you meant something indecent by it! Nope, there's no real reason to show that off... No point in wasting energy just to look cool..."
Uani then looked back to Yuko as she heard a bunch of angry 'thwack' sounds coming from where she was hammering. Uani had to stifle a chuckle when she saw the girl angrily trying to hammer down a nail...it seemed like she wasn't the only one not good at it. This job was probably going to take a while...
It was a few hours later that the house was finally put together. It...certainly wasn't the most beautiful of jobs...and they hadn't exactly been quick, what with both Uani and Yuko's ineptitude with tools and Inari's general laziness. But they had got it done.
"Wohoo! It's done! Good job everybody! Just think, now somebody that had no place to stay will have a roof over their head! Isn't that great?"
As Uani smiled, her own words began to run through her head again, especially the word 'roof'. It made her remember something else.
"Oh crap! I forgot about my house! My roof is still broken... *sigh*... Oh well, at least I get to sleep under the stars tonight..."
-------------------------Status------------------------- General Mood: Happy the job is done! mrgreen
Actions: Preparing to go home, I guess...
Thoughts: But...I don't want to sleep under the stars when I'm supposed to be inside! gonk crying

Inari
Aramori Inari's attention was drawn to Yuko as she hammered away angrily at the board. It scared him a little to think she was the same shy gentle girl who had been sewing wounds all morning. "Strange what giving her a hammer instead of a needle can do huh." he chuckled. As uani turned down his idea though he seemed confused, "Waste of energy? Maybe thats why I'm so tired all the time. I spend all my time being awesome so I have to sleep more to replenish my strength... which reminds me I should take a nap, I'm gonna head ho- oh right its gone..." he said scratching his head. Going back to work he did what he could like everyone else. Then bringing up the last wall and putting in the last few nails he could finally sit back and appreciate the work they had done. "Its nice to look at a days hard work... it's just the days hard work thats the issue." he complained rolling his stiff shoulders. Walking over to a nearby piece of rubble he picked up his coat from where he had left it a few hours earlier. It was then he heard Uani talking about how the roof was broken on her house. "Your roofs busted? My house is currently holding my jacket." he said pulling out the piece of wood his jacket had been on to show it had once been a part of his front door. Pulling the jacket on he sighed, "I can come patch it up if you want. I was just gonna find a tree somewhere for the night myself so I'm officially done for the day. Well except escorting Yuko about." he offered with a grin. Don't take everything so seriously

(Sorry guys, I'm not at home so I don't have my posting format with me at the moment)
Azai cleared away some sand from the ground around him, thinking about how difficult the task at hand was going to be. Slowly but surely Azai did manage to clear away some sand, but not nearly enough to make a large impact on the area. Azai sat, discouraged, wondering what to do next.
