The jounin structor Zasso as well as another masked shinobi of the Senju have presented the available genin team in front of the body of a civilian, murdered sometime last night. This is not the only body to turn up since the attack on the village. The genin have been instructed to locate the source of these murders and to put and an end to it by any means necessary.

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 just kept that strange look on Zasso for a moment while he went on despite her. Was it all to unreasonable for her to want water from a water gourd? Instead she found out that this old man was a boozer at the best of times if he was drinking on the job. Yuko gave a defeated sigh, but dumped out the sake behind her so that it wouldn’t contaminate the evidence. He shouldn’t be drinking on the job, that was a huge no-no for anyone, especially a man of his position. When the topic of what else her eyes saw was brought up, Yuko got visibly uncomfortable and she brought her hand up to grasp the upper part of her opposite arm. Her eyes dropped down and to the right.
”… yeah… I saw something…” There was a sigh and heavy dejection in her voice that seemed to bring her shoulders down low. It was something that she had no joy in reporting apparently and she was almost afraid to let the words cross her lips. ”There… is another body in the forest. But… there’s something really… weird about it. How do I put this? It’s a ninja, but his chakra network… it looks like it was… constricted… like when you drink a juice box and it gets crushed in when you suck… sort of… kind of…” Yuko was having a hard time putting into words what she saw before she got a mouthful of sake, honestly, though it was a horrible comparison, it was the best that she could think of.
With that out of the way, she started to mentally nurse the unintentional barb that Zasso spoke when he assured their chunin that her eyes were needed. She hoped that this wasn’t going to happen all the time and that she was something more than just some tool for clue hunting for the Senju clan. She straightened herself up and noted to herself that the sooner that she got this task done the sooner that she could go home and do her own thing again. Still, how where they going to do that? They had no idea who was behind this and the crime scene… didn’t make much sense to her in order to put together clues. Yuko turned to Zasso, she had one final question:
”Zasso-sensei? Do you think that… this is the suspects… erm… hunting ground, for the lack of a better word or have you found bodies in other places other than here too?” 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.

Zasso looked down at the young girl with a completely level look. No joy, no sorrow, and absolutely no satisfaction in his features as he spoke to her.
"You tell me young ambassador."
And just like that he started to dissolve into a large array of purple smoke the enveloped himself and the other masked Jounin sitting beside him. When the wind cleared out the smoke screen they were gone without a trace more than his pungent tobacco and an ominous sensation of dread weighing in the gut of every ninja present.

Keruin Senju
Keruin paced over to Yuko, putting a light hand on her shoulder, but a cold one. Her body didn't generate heat it would seem. But she wore a warm smile to compensate. She looked around before speaking lightly. "Yuko, I won't blame you if you don't want to stare at dead bodies all day. But could I get you to do a very quick 360 of the area, and just direct me and Sanjay to anything abnormal. Try not to pay attention to what you see?" Keruin didn't want to baby Yuko, but she didn't want her feeling uncomfortable in the squad either. She was just as important as anyone else, more so maybe.
She took a few steps back from Yuko and leaned on her scythe, looking over to Sanjay briefly before scanning the area. "Well we're dumped here, maybe we'll get lucky and whatever it is will just come out and attack us." She finished the sentence with a light chuckle.

______________
Sanjay looked up through the treeline taking in the orange painted clouds turn to purple as the sun sank into the horizon. It was becoming rather cold as time progressed and the breeze was not helping. Their was a thick smell of tobacco thanks to Zasso. Sanjay slightly fringed at the pungent smell in the air, however it was short lived as the wind picked up carrying it away.
Sanjay began to chuckle as he heard Keruin's comment. "Yes, that would make our job a little easier." He agreed. "Well if Yuko isn't feeling well I'll scout the perimeter." He proposed as he began to create hand seals. He would utilize his water clones as backup while he scouted. Creating five clones the group of Sanjays simultaneously pulled out their katanas and made their way deeper into the forest. Sanjay lead the pack along the tree tops looking for anything suspicious. He made sure not to go too far in fear of splitting for the team. It would be sheer stupidity to leave the team in a dangerous mission, not only would it endanger him but his team as well.

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’s eyes remained on the ground, she had tensed a few minutes under the grasp of Keruin but relaxed shortly after. She eventually raised her eyes to look into the face of the girl who was trying to comfort her the best she could, her forced smile gave a glimpse into how uncomfortable she really was with the situation.
”I’ll be okay… I mean, lives are at stake right?”
She took a deep breath and focused her chakra into her eyes, the veins bulged before she opened her eyes and took a deep breath as she brought her hands up into a sign to help her focus on something other than the fact that she was hunting for dead bodies. Yuko did an intensive scan of the area around her, she wanted to stop this murderous… fiend… from killing any more of people around here. She assumed that if her clan was to come down here, then they might be targeted by this person. Yuko was going what may be considered painfully slow, but there was no arguing that her searching was complete. If she found anything that was out of the ordinary or what could possibly helped them out she would relay the information to her team mates, and if necessary direct them to where they could find the item or person of interest. After a few hours her eyes were starting to hurt from the strain, she could still see, things with relatively clarity, but she was starting to get a headache. When she couldn’t take anymore she closed her eyes for a moment, letting the water from her tears sooth the burning. She gave a defeated sigh.
”I really hope that whatever did this doesn’t come after us… I think that whatever did this would be rather terrifying… then there is the chakra draining that we should worry about too.” Yuko brought her hands up and messaged her temples where the veins of her byakugan were bulged. ”I wonder if this is the only place that this person or thing struck or if there are other parts of the village where it struck? Should we… ask around to see if there are any missing people that have happened recently? I don’t think that I’ll be able to scan the whole village with my Byakugan… When her eyes felt a little better she opened them again and continued to scan her surroundings.
”Hey… do you think that this might be the work of a puppet master or something? These tracks are really, really weird and I can’t figure out how a human would be able to do it without drawing attention to himself… or be able to move fast enough to take out a shinobi either… 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.

Upon using her byakugan, Yuko would find two more bodies with minor chakra natures, but enough for them to be validated as shinobi or at least shinobi in training, roughly 10 meters from there position north away from the village. Each body was about 13 meters apart from each other, proving both were isolated and alone. Another thing odd was the wildlife was all cowering in fear away, tucked as safely as they could in their respective environments.

Keruin Senju
"Alright, i'll look around then as w--" Keruin stopped herself halfway through her sentence, realizing how stupid it was. "Scratch that, if we seperate ourselves it'll just be easier for this thing to pick us off should it come back." She leaned on her scythe, digging the top blade into the ground slightly as she rocked back and forth on it. With a slightly bored look none the less.
As Yuko spoke about whatever had killed these men though, she couldn't help but chuckle to herself. "You never know, it could very well be a puppet master. It's a good a chance as anything else offered up so far....well maybe not anything." Keruin finished, looking over to Sanjay with a grin. "But it's more likely not to be human of the sorts."

Sanjay Senju
The night was upon them as time went by with no action. Moonlight danced along the grass serving as the only form of light. Yuko had been staring around for hours with little success. She was tired and possibly being deprived of chakra as more time was wasted with her using her ability. Sanjay to had little success with his scouting, and his clones found nothing as well. His five clones now stood around the team waiting for something to happen.
Yuko once again resumed her scanning with her Byakugan. She began to express her opinion on the matter while she looked around. As she spoke Sanjay could pick up her feelings on the matter. She wasn't very interested in the mission, and she wanted it to end so she could do something that suited her more. It was natural for since she was dragged into all this without even being a member of the clan. Just as Sanjay was about to try and comfort her Keruin jumped in. She gave Sanjay a look as while refering back to his comment on vampires. With a rather annoyed gaze he looked back at Keruin, "Geez, if it is a vampire you so owe me an apology and possible some dinner." he replied jokingly.
"Well this is becoming pointless, I say we move out we'll have a better chance of running into something rather then stay here waiting to find more dead bodies. For all we know whatever is doing this is killing someone as we wait here." Sanjay personality suddenly became serious like when he first meet Dengen. He was becoming more focused. He was revealing his colder side a more mature, emotionless side.

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 HyugaAs day became night and the moon started to march higher and higher into the sky, it was becoming obvious that Yuko was started to bred a foul mood within her. When it seemed that midnight rolled around Yuko was clenching her eyes tightly closed and hold her head with both hands. It felt like something was trying to split her head open in order to get out… Yuko was debating whether or not she wanted to try and pull her own head off to try and escape the pain that was ruthlessly digging its way in through her brain. She hadn’t felt this much pain sense the clan lord punished her for sneaking candy to the children when they were supposed to be training. A snarl was starting to plaster on her face as she rubbed her temples, her eyes were bloodshot from the strain of using her kekkei genkai for so long, and when she did open her eyes she was glaring out at the world in front of her. She wished those around her would shut up, thought their voices may have been soft so as not to draw too much attention it still felt like they were screaming into a megaphone while they held it only a few inches away from her ear. She mentally cursed her comrades… and her superiors who forced her to go on this stupid mission to find a needle in a haystack. She mentally noted how she was going to tear Zasso into shreds for forcing this on her. It was bad enough that she had to come and do this for a clan that she wasn’t even technically in an alliance with, but to force her to look for dead bodies all day?? He had some nerve… If this was a feeding ground then they were going to have a long, miserable and dangerous night ahead of them and if something happened she was going to be damn good and sure that Zasso lose his head for this. What the hell was wrong with this stupid clan? They were finding far more shinobi as victims here than they were pedestrians, so this SHOULD be a job for a jounin ranked squad… she just guessed that Zasso was just too damn lazy to come and do his own work so he decided to shove it onto their laps so he could go boozing with his buddies.
She had many things to say about Zasso at this point, and none of them were particularly polite.
Still, despite her migraine and deep seeded need to get some retribution upon Zasso, Yuko soldiered on behind the group and followed darkly and begrudgingly wherever they were going. The sooner she could get this mission over with the sooner she could go home and try and take care of this migraine. She started to feel sick to her stomach around midnight too… she guessed that it was because she had been using so much chakra with her byakugan today that her body was reacting negatively to it… not to mention that she had absolutely nothing in her stomach sense she puked it all up when she was forced to look at that stupid body earlier before being forced to hunt for clues.
Yeah… Yuko was in a pretty bad mood to say the least. 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.

Keruin Senju
With the darkness around the area getting thicker, Keruin didn't feel any more energetic or eager to proceed on with the mission. She could also feel the seriousness in the air from her comrades, which didn't put her at any form of ease. With a quick sigh, she slowed her pace noticeably. It became little more than a slow shuffle before she violently slammed her scythe into a nearby tree.
"Alright to hell with this this." She said with an annoyed grunt. The bark of the tree split as she cursed, almost as if it was from something other than the scythe. "It's pitch black out, we're walking around looking for some big a** thing draining chakra from a bunch of people and leaving the corpses around. If it's THAT big we're not gonna miss it shifting around in the god damned woods." With a long and drawn out sigh she motioned to the two of them. "Take a break, we'll set up a small camp for a bit and rest. I'll grab some wood for a fire." Leaving her scythe embedded in the tree, she began snapping branches off of nearby trees, not straying too far though. "I'll beat the old man next time I see him, he knows things and I bet he's holding out on us as a test."

Sanjay agreed with Keruin's position on the what to do. It was better to rest rather then fight with little energy. While they set up camp Sanjay decided to show off his masterful cooking skills. He had packed food for himself before leaving home, however it seemed like his team needed it more then he did. Sanjay pulled out empty boxes and split the dish up evenly among his team. Seasoned fried rice baked in lemon water with a spicy omelet and steam cooked chicken breast. Each member got a third of the rice, omelet, 2 stripes of chicken . The meal would be sufficient enough to last the night.
"Well guys, this is the best I could do. I hope you enjoy." he said with a smile. He sat on the ground with his box next to him. He pulled out a pill from his pocket before consuming it with some water. Within seconds he felt vital system felt rejuvenated and the virus inside him became dormant. Sanjay picked up his box and chowed down.

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 accepted the meal with a ‘Thank you’ that came out far more snappy and aggressive than what she originally intended it. Her brain felt like it was trying to tear though her skull and escape somewhere else. Yuko tried to eat, though she was only able to take in a couple of bites before she placed her meal down and propped her head up with her elbow on her thy and her chin in her palm, she closed her eyes again to drown out the light of the campfire while trying to sooth the aggressive thoughts and actions that were taking over her mind and creating impulses that were less than civil. She cursed mentally at Zasso once again.
It was going to be long night and there wasn’t going to be much that Yuko was going to be able to do about it. She supposed that all she was going get to do was just grin and bear it stoically, she wasn’t allowed to show emotions as it was undignified and beneath her as a Hyuga… indeed she had to swallow such bilge ever sense she got this damnable curse mark on her brow. The pressure and the supressed aggression bubbled and toiled within the normally docile young woman caused her heart to start to beat a little faster. Oh how she hated the head of her clan, forcing the marks on all the Hyuga children. She hated him… she loathed his entire existence to the point where in the deepest, darkest part of her soul, she wished all of his inner demons would manifest themselves and slowly devour him inch by inch until his screams of agony and torment were nothing more than echoes on the winds. She wanted him dead… no… not dead, dead was simple and left room for rebirth, she wanted the head of her clan to be utterly and totally destroyed from the inside out. Same with Zasso who was also using her as nothing more than a tool for his own selfish gains, she was tired of being on a leash to others who had no consideration for her as a person, only a thing, a means to an end and nothing more.
…a means to an end.
…a means to an end.
A… means to an end.
She… was not a means to an end. She was her own person, she was her own person… She could… remove those who would think of her as a tool. She could start with…
Yuko’s right eye slowly parted and opened to reveal those Ivory eyes that were stained with the strain of the red bloodshot outer rims. Her eye slowly moved over to Keruin with a slight shake… then it rolled over to Sanjay just as slowly.
A means… to an end… 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.

 Drake Uzumaki Walking in to the forest, Drake's jovial mood was quickly spoiled. To his horror, he the corpse of a man he once knew. He met this man during his stay in the Senju village. He was a ramen vendor, who provided exquisite food that Drake had never had before or since. Filled with dread, Drake offered a prayer for the old man. He noticed a few sets of tracks. Some were odd and sluggish. "Puppermaster?" he wondered. He also three sets of tracks by the trail. "These must the genin Zasso told me to help" he wondered. Drake had met a puppetmaster before in his travels. This man gave Drake an impression that puppetmasters are abhorrent creatures. He hoped that the being from that odd tracks was not the same man. He started following the three tracks as quick as possible.
