-------THE PRACTICE SESSION------ ( Judith )

“Aka what now?” Judy said as she raised an eyebrow from where she stood, inverstigating the woman that stood there.. she seemed a bit young, but had a Kage’s trust for such important jobs.. She did not seem to be of quite the rank yet, but if anything Judith could attest to was that looks could be very.. deceiving.

“ Name is Judith, Judy you can call me” she spoke as she seemed to be pondering something “Say Nel, I have been.... detained.... For quite some while. Would you mind to give me a little spar? I need to see if my muscle are quite ready for action again, It seems to me our Kage is busy working her books as it is.

Judith looked over to the silent leader of there village and turned arround “ I suppose its no problem then. If you are interested, meet me atop of the building and bring that little trinket of yours.. It has been a while since I slaughtered a Swordmaster. Oh but dont worry, I wont kill you.... Yet “

Judith turned to leave the room with a devious smile.. Judith was not very complex but she had a dark history with the Mist village. After all she once led it.

-------RESCUE OPERATION-------- ( Dust)

Dust watched as the enemy started to prepare her attack.. her prime objective was to secure and protect the Jinchuuriki, and thus she got right onto that “ Daiton, Burrowing Elevator “ she spoke as she pressed her hand on the summoned mountain, Chakra coursed through her hand and made the stone craft and chage its shape to encage Koto in a rocky prisson

The stone cell she created swiftly sunk into the earth. But the move took many of time and Dust could no longer avoid the stream of needles that where fired her way. She curled herself up and took tried to roll out of the needles way, not avoiding them all.

As she dodged the steel rain she could only hope the stingers where not poisoned, Dust felt the steel edges in her back skin. After the role she got up and charged the two entities “ Surrender!” she demanded whilest approaching at a quick speed, throwing a kunai with explosive tag toward the center of the two forms.

-------A TRAVELING PICK-NICK------- ( Clay, Sketch and Geppeto )

Clay was happily talking about his plan when Sketch tried to squeal... but ofcourse there came no sound from her silent lips, so instead she gave a pouting look and tried to break free from Clay’s gently but ever strong and studborn grasp

“That's good to hear Melody! Its great i can count on you tommorow!” he laughed as he moved away “oooh we will certainly have fun, i can asure you that!” he spoke with a happy grin spread over his lips, as always the artist of a ninja was plotting something and enjoyed the process mabye even more then his ploy.

“ We will be there too sensei. “ Gepetto said as he moved closer with Charlene on his hand “It would be a good journey to see the Mointains of Endless Sandstorms” Charlene nodded as comply, ofcourse this was done by the young Holtz, but he made it look as natural as possible.

This turned the full attention to Sketch who gulped softly as everyone had there eyes on her.. so ofcourse she nodded carefully and gave a shivering, hidden smile. What else could she do?

-------DARKNESS AWOKEN------- ( Maria )

Maria watched over the fearsome creature that curled infront of her, he was large, strong and known to be very dangerous even for her. Yet Maria was never afraid. Like a true mother she never showed any fear as with a smile she walked forward. As the saying goes, Azuya had a face that.... well, only a mother could love. But that is what he got for being so strong that Hibemi could push him through such experiments without breaking him

“ My my.. Are your mating insticts kicking in? You wish to claim young needy maidens for your company/” she spoke as she leaned back and crossed her arms. It was a frighfull concept that this man, with his terrible powers including the dreadfull Earth Grudge Fear was what Hibemi called a prototype. It was the onlyone that needed such gaurding and had so much faith from the princess yet an even bigger amouth of restrictions

Stepping over to the council, Miss Birth typed in the resleasing codes and pushed through the commands. She hesitated at the comfirmation screen.. her hand hovered above the Yes button while her eyes started at Azuya. The eye contact made her shiver even though she did’nt show it. “You are going to be a good boy and behave won’t you?” she asked with a slight hidden quiver in her voice

After a silent moment and a deep breath she pressed the deactivation device. His chakra circuits, wich where interupted by the device where once again allowed to flow through. The steel chains snapped lose and allowed for the freedom of movement. The bars infront of him where removed and finally all the explosive arround Azuya where deactivated. The Demon was free.Hibemi’s most powerfull weapon to date.

“The world belongs to the princess. And we will fight to make it so. You can do as you please but act in best interest for our Princess... Or i will put you down, my child” Maria spoke as she stepped closer and extanded a hand toward the male.. after so long in a state of suspension his mucles had to be weakend “ Kill in the name of our Princess, aye?”

-------THATS A FOWL!------- ( Robin )

The boy looked on toward the ninja’s and there strange way of behaving as he watched carefully. Kage’s where supposed to be unstoppable powers, so why was this one so sad? “yes sir i am here to retrieve you and you,---“

Before Van Persie even knew what was going on he felt himself being lifted from the ground and struggling with his legs. He wanted to speak! He wanted to struggle! But all he was accomplishing was muffled murrs and roughing his body against the hardest sand he had ever seen..

He listened to how the Kazekage ranted on and cried out in frustration. He observed every word of death and doom she spoke and frankly he did not think he would ever play football again.

Luckily the sand soon dropped him and he was able to breath safely “I-I-I am simlpy here to escort you!” Robin blurted in panic. First hand he was experiencing the power of the Kage’s

-------
( Apologies for any writing mistakes, I was pretty tired )

The Kage looked up at the two, listening to Judy and Nel's conversation with watching eyes. She pretended like she was busy with her books to allow them to talk without interruption, but soon enough she looked up to catch a glint of the two. A small smile on her face appeared as Judith proposed a spar. Excellent, everything was going along to plan. She wished to employ Judith, but first of all, she was going to need to see if she was combat ready.

After all, it would be odd to expect a person who had been... Detained, as Judith called it, to be fully operational and ready to fight the moment she gets out of her cell. As such, she had hoped she would get into a battle with someone. That this person was Nel was just an added advantage, as it meant she would not defeat the person immediately.

Yes, everything was going according to plan. At least as much it could possibly be, in the shithole she had managed to get herself into. Why, oh why, had she accepted to become kage. She was not fit for this. She sighed and she looked up at Judith leaving the room. As soon as she left, she said: "Accept it." She said to Nel. "I'll follow, don't worry, in case she goes to far." Kiroshi added as she stood up. "I do not like this. But we have to employ what we have at disposal. As long as she ends up killing the right people, I don't really care how she does it or what she feels while doing it." Kiroshi said and then sighed, before she begun to leave too, to head towards the roof top.

(Not sure how good this is, but it is a post. I also apologize for my absence.)

--

(Edited onto because I was informed of this later.)

Chi opened her eyes. Where was she...? She stood up to her feet and then remembered. She had lied down here to sleep on her way to the water village. God, how long had she slept? She was glad Hibemi was not there, she would have punished her badly for this. She took on the headband and adjusted her gear. God, this water village gear was highly uncomfortable. But she had to dress like one of them, it was necessary for the plan. In her backpocket, she had a curled up slightly worn looking headband for Iwagakure, another piece of equipment that would come in handy later.

She sighed. She had better get going. Picking up her gear and putting out the fire, she began to get going, heading through the mists of the water country. She was far away from the village still, having barely entered the country. She was already getting tired of this place, why anyone would ever want to live here was far beyond her imagination.

~~~~Tokara~~~~

With a twitch of her fingers the two puppets raced towards the kuni and shattered into pieces. The puppeteer then vanished iin a puff of smoke. The darts weren't poisoned, that wasn't their purpose. "you wasted a lot of time for nothing." the minuscule akatsuki sighed, finishing her hand signs. "Shadow manipulation jutsu." He shadow charged forward, snaking around the hair like shadows of the needles. Racing for dust to make a quick end.


~~~~kayuko~~~~

A summoning? That's new. Kayuko smiled as she dove into the earth. thee gyser flushed her out with labored force as the Tsuchikage encased herself in armor of stone. "Earth release: Stone armor!" she launched herself high into the air and, with great effort, twisted to fall right on Haruka

"Okay let's go then." Nel said with a determined look on her face. She was ready for anything that Judith might throw at her. She'd faced a member of the Akatsuki without fear as she did every foe. In her village strength was needed to survive especially as a Kunoichi in the Hidden Mist. 'It's time to show why I've been compared to the Demon Zabusa...' she thought to herself.

(salright.)

Hayden
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He smiled awkwardly as the small girl ran up into his arms, He sighed lifting her up a bit. "Well... if you want we can go somewhere and train... And we can start now..." He sighed again, not sure where he would start, he was completely self taught, every technique he uses so it would be hard to teach it to another person. He Waved to the others and smirked. "Well I guess I should go take this one to train now..." He says before leaving the room and moving to a room, it was all walls, no doors or windows. It was haydens secret training area, and could only be accessed through his shadow techniques. "Okay..." He said putting the small girl down and turning on the lights. "Are you ready to begin?"

Hashiko
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He sighed and shook his head. "Yeah yeah whatever... well if I don't get some rest soon I'll wind up just being a stump..." He smirked and looked up at the sky as they continued to fly. "Why? well I never really thought about it.." He reached up and scratched his chin. "I suppose it was just somewhere to go after I got kicked from my village... but I don't know, I've lived life so fast I never really cared to remember anything important..." He stopped talking and closed his eyes, streaching a bit. "Though, I do enjoy this place... I mean.. it's really comfortable..."

Spirit of V
------------------
“ Well those goals seem very intersting to me.. and id like to help on that.. Perhaps il even tell you the real past..” the spirit chuckled as he watched over her gazes “Tell me... What do you know about the one carrying the Rinnegan? I thought the last user was killed by your father”

The spirit inquired as Kasumi was moving toward where Zen had last been seen..but “
----------
Julia
----------
But as Kasumi reached the hall where Zen had been fighting the Cultists, she would find her partner against the back of a wall.. next to a few disabled cultists.. In the center of the hall, facing of the cultists stood a woman with a seathed blade.. her hair motionless by the lack of wind as her sword shimmered “ You where delayed Kasumi..” Julia spoke as she watched the cultists.. “ I came here to see how matters fare... “ she spoke.. a single slash cried through the air.. shortly after the Cultists fell down to the ground. No longer moving aside there eyes flickiring about.

“Mission Accomplished Kasumi.. Good job” she spoke as she pushed her sword into its seath “ Do you have a report for me..?” she asked calmly after demonstraiting why she was confident she could lead a war against the shinobi villages...
-------------
Haruka
-------------
“Hit her... “the sister spoke to the tortoise.. as he aimed with his cannons for the armor “With what chief” “ with water...” she spoke as the large shell creature blasted a beam of water against the stone.. Wich was followed by hand symbols formed at Haruka’s expense

“Raiton: Shocking Wave...” she said as her hand landed in the beam of water.. the surging electicty blasted over the base of the jet water until it collided with the armor for a heavy violence

“Years of Envy.. Years of desirign to be you... No more.. I will kill you now and here!! And i will be the next Tsuchikage sister!! So.. DIE!!”Haruka spread her hand in the beam of water and the energy surged with full power and violence through the water, upto a point of explosion
---------------
Melody
---------------
Moving toward her house.. Melody sighed a bit.. she was not sure about a picknick but there was no way to talk it out of clay’s mind.. so she simply went along with it, huming a soft tune as she walked up the sandy stairs toward her appartment... “Gyra-chan.. I wish you where still here..” she muttered to herself.. missing her old friend

Melody soon arived to her house and went straight for her bed.. she would see about the day tommorow, when the sun would poke her eyes to awaken “Just gotta pick the right dress.. Nobody will EVER see me in a Ninja outfit..”
---------
Jullieta
-----------
“A.. Alright Hayden-sama! I will follow along! “ she spoke and stood at the rooms opening “Goodbye everyone!! Be good and i will see you later!” she explained with a gaint smirk across her face while she followed her asigned teacher “So what will we start with?? With the First Dance?? The Fallen Autumn?? Gale of Death??” she called out.. twinkiling eyes ias she named two of her mothers techniques and..something she seemed tr have made up

Before long she was with Hayden in the strange room. She tried to look arround but clinged to his legs as there was nothing but darkness. When the light switch illuminated the area, she gasped in suprise “ uwaa... This is.. Amazing” she spoke with a glow to her pupils.. the problem was she was waring a formal kimono and had no weapon with her at all.. Jullieta had 0 experience.. not even her own tools.
----------
Kenji
----------
“You find the back of a large owl a comfort zone...?” Kenji asked as he watched over the sky.. in the distance the village of Shadows was already showing for those who knew its location “ So you have no motive for the war we cause...I suppose it takes all kinds” Kenji stated while the big bird made its decend toward the village.

Before long the bird achieved touch down.. and Kenji jumped off with his price in hand.. “Il take this one to the others.. only a few more now” he spoke as he turned about to put the Jinchuuriki at the cell benaath the large statue... “Stay here wit hteh rest..”he spoke to teh unconcious entity before he moved back outside to check on his partner “You gonna stay there or can i recall my summon?”
-------------

---------DUST IN THE WIND---------- ( Dust )
As she rushed over the battleground, she danced through the shards of rocks with her hands vigorously working on symbols"Daiton, Camouflage Optic" she spoke as she jumped and with a cloud of dust she was gone. Her motions where hidden by her jutsu;s environmental adaption technique.

She dashed among the stones quickly. her aim to avoid the shadows that filled the field. She knew not of its power, but anything the red clouds would use could not be good. The sounds of snapping rock rushed right toward the puppet master, whom was having her dolls at the ready by the looks. Closer and closer until suddenly there was no more sound, no more gravel clouds from broken rock tips, no more signs that indicated where the special agent had gone. There was complete silence, but her presence, though unclear wear, was still around.

-----------A TEST OF STRENGTH---------- ( Judith )
Judith stood at the roof looking to her opponent. she watched the Mizukage join as well and smiled" Has been a while since you saw me fight hasn't it?" she referred to the lady with her blue/white hat as Judy let out a deep smirk" Wasn't it because you stopped my rampage that you got my title? Il tell you one thing Kiroshi.. I will get that hat back one day"

But soon Judy focused her attention back to the opponent in front of her " Nel. I want you to give me all you have. Do not hold back. Trust me it is for your own good" she said as she breathed in, even as she did Judith seemed to be growing "Now.. Lets start!"

Judy kicked off at the ground and moved as fast forward to strike at her enemy "Come on! Entertain me!" she growled.

-----------A BATTLE OF ARTS-------- ( Sketch)
AS Melody was in her bed.. Sketch could not resist but to follow. She awaited for her friend and left her a small invite. "Meet me early in the morning at the gates. For Gyra's sake" she wrote down and had it on her desk.

~~~~~Fowl~~~~~ (just to be clear there are no dolls as they took the explosion)

Invisibility was always a pain. How could she torture her enemies if she couldn't see them? "Come out and play~~ This is no fun!" The petite and tiny woman cried out. Her shadow kept whirling around the fractions of darkness. Soon the area in front of her would be impassible without falling into her jutsu.


~~~~~~Kayuko~~~~~~

And indeed there was an explosion and a figure fell to the ground at peak of the mountain. a small crater, produced by the impact, cradled the Tsuchikage as she trembled from the reaction of their jutsus.

Kiroshi listend to Judith's talk and pushed her hat slightly up to look at her. "One can dream." Kiroshi said back simply as she looked at the woman preparing for battle, backing away to a corner of the roof to let them fight in peace, but readying herself to stop them should it be required. She looked at Judith charging, and her eyes switched over to Nel as she began to speak. "May the best one win." She declared before they crashed, then she formed handsigns of her own and blasted herself up into the sky with water, so she could watch their battle from above. This would prove to be interesting indeed.

However, away from a warm up battle, the battle was somewhat irrelevant. She did not have any plans of letting Judith lead the troops. She had already fought her one time for this hat, she did not plan on putting her in any position to do a coup of her. Then again, Judith had been rotting in jail all that time, while she been training. So somehow, she had the feeling that the battle might be easier this time. She had no plans on trying, though. One impending war was more than enough, she did not need an arch-nemesis and a civil war while she was at it. No matter how much she might wish to wipe that smirk off Judith's face with a good strong punch to the face.

--

Chi sighed, as she began to approach a village. Deciding to rest here for the night, she found herself an inn and put down her gear. As she was here, she decided to leave a small sign close to the bed that said she had been here, so people could see where she had come from. She had deliberately chosen the path that entered from the Earth countries side into the country, and this was the closest village in that border. She had left one sign in every village from the Earth border to here, and as such, if anyone were to find them and try to track where she came from, it would all lead them there. Nobody should say she had not thought of everything.

After a quick nights rest, Chi "accidentally" left behind one of her kunai's with the Earth headband mark on it. With that done, she found her gear, paid for her stay, and she got going towards the water village. She couldn't wait to get out of her. Too many islands. Too many boats. And too much mist. Oh what she would give to see a forest, or dunes of sand. She may be a psychopath, but she was still a person, and this place was probably her least favorite place in the world. Was not long left to travel though. She comforted herself with that.

Spirit of V
--------------
“Who was that lady..? she your boss or something? The spirit asked as he traced along the thoughts of Kasumi “So you came here cause she ordered it? Well whatever the case.. do not forget i gave YOU the fortress.. including what is beneath it..”
-------
Melody
-------
“mmmh.. For Gyra huh.. “she hummed to herself as she layed the paper down “Sure.. We will honor her like we used to in the morning.. Count on me” she hummed to herslef as she layed down to sleep.

The next morning, Melody walked as the dusk was all the illumnated the sands.. she walked straight to where she saw Sketch awaiting “ Are you ready..?” she asked as she stood next to her team mate.. and prepared to dance
-------
Julia
-----------
“Take your pick of a room.. Soon soldiers will arive to repair and restore this base..” She spoke to Kasumi as she walked through the halls.. her steps slowly trotted her throug the grand halls of the once great fortress that stood for the alliance between Ninja and Samurai.. an alliance the shinobi then deviled.. “Irony..” she spoke, contemplating how from this strong hold she would destroy the Ninja world.

As she was alone and away from Kasumi, Julia felt her self weakening again.. she leaned against the wal and coughed.. she coughed so loud that the muffled echo resounded like rock falling.. she prayed no one had heard it.. she prayed no one realzied it.. Julia could not be seen as weak
--------
Haruka
------
As the body of rocks exploded and plummeted from the air.. Haruka couldnt resist.. she laughed.. she laughed so hard “YES..YES!! I HAVE YOU!!” Haruka shouted out as she ran forward to the crater.. the lighting still sparked over her hand as she approached her own sister.

She crouched down to look over the gapping hole on the mountain side.. she wanted to see her sisters smoldering corpse.. she wanted to taste the utter victory.. as she slided down the crater, her summon dissapeared, her fingers sparking as she hunched over her Kayuko “Farewell sister...”Haruka said while she prepared to finish the job...
----------
Gyra
----------
Having depleted her last energy.. Gyra stopped motion completly.. she breathed softly and though of her sister.. she murred the name softly.. her heart was burnign with a rage that was aimed at getting back her sister and the new girl... how could she have failed both?

The hatred that burned within her... it was the start of a new Shinobi war, even though nobody but one person knew of it yet.
-------------
Samurai Messenger
----------
An Iron cladded warrior walked through the halls of the hospital.. his feet fastly moving. Step by step it came closer until it reached Kanjmo’s Room“Lady Kamiko! Sir Kajimo! An urgent message from the Yamikage!.. It has begun...” he stated before he bowed to his knees and kneeled to them “Please.. Follow me.. “ He spoke.. he was but a foot soldier..

Outside the hospital though was a sight to behold.. armies of armored samurail, all carrying there own weapons and gear. There must have been atleast a thousand strong, arranged in a diciplined order. Carrying banners.. Some rode a horse, wich must have been the commanders. Others had there rank indicated through markings on there shoulders

“Lady Kimiko.. I am to hand you command of the 4th Battalion, The Shadows” the ninja explained as he handed her a scroll.. the Shadows where like Kimiko, Ninja’s that left the way of war and followed the path of honor

“Sir Kajimo.. To you I am to hand over the controll of the 12th Battalion, the Tigers” The Tigers where but a normal squad of Samurai.. but they where all sword fighters. The Tigers where known to be excelent one on one fighters, mostly kept in reserve for small pact targer oriented missions

Then the warrior bowed and walked away.. leaving them be

--------BATTLE IN THE MIST------- ( Judith )
Taking in a deep breath, Judith trusted her arm forward...her eye lit up just a little. It was an indication her ability had activated and she now surrounded herself with the energy of nature. It reformed her skin. Transforming to a scaled arm of a strange brown quality, her entire mass increased and appeared even more deadly. Black marking crawled along her arm as she swiped out for her enemy " Come on! Just another Jutsu-slinger?? " she cried out as arm changes its shape and reformed into a battleaxe on her hand.

With this new equipment she slashed out at Nel. It was clear this was but the start of Judiths power. She licked over her lips and chopped away with her arm, crushing the tiles below her. Wherever Judith attempted to strike, her hair flowed behind her like a carpet of red. her eyes ever focused on Nel with a fire and hunger for battle.. her every motion was a thrill that testified to her experience

Judith knew that the Mizukage was watching and that was perfectly fine with her. She would obey the plans for now. But a single moment of weakness and she would take her rank back. No matter the amount of violence she had to use for it.

------- TO STRIKE WHAT YOU CANNOT SEE------- ( Dust )
The Silence remained lingering on the broken battlefield. Even when a loud crash of thunder resounded through the mountain tips, the feeling of inactivity lingered upon the shadow filled area.

This was Dust's specialty, to strike from out of no where and render the target useless with a crippling strike. for now she observed. She watched the fighter with great admiration. What a small girl she was, wearing an Akatsuki robe and being given the responsibly to deal with the four tails. It was easy to under estimate her, but Dust was rational enough to know she earned her stripes

Her plan was simple.. during her invisible period she hid a few explosive tags, spun a few wires and observed the battlefield for the optimal planning. Dust war ready

Without as much as a sound, Dust was behind her opponent.. her sword quickly moving downward, her invisibility canceled. it had no point with the shining iron sword in her hand. so instead she conversed Chakra. If all went according to plan, this would end right away.

--------END OF THE MATCH ---------- ( Robin )
The male was rather happy when he landed on the ground and stood up "S..Sure yes... I will take you and.. Her.. To the village" Robin said as he was pretty beat up.. but he did anyway, guiding them back toward the village as fast as he could

"So she.. She won't try anything stupid anymore right... I mean that did hurt" He spoke with a worried look on his face. and he had all reason to, the sand might not have pressured yet, but the scratches of sandpapered skin where all over him

-------FEAR WITH A MOTHERLY INSTINCT----- (Maria )

Maria was breathing rather carefully as she let him take a feel with his long wired body. Earth Grudge Fear. Such an motherless ability that made her shudder. But she knew better then to show any of Hibemi's creatures that she was scared "You can release my hands now.." she said softly, suppressing the blush as his creepy yet charming voice curled about her

"Yes we should go, but Azuya dear, lets not forget you follow me, not the other way around mh? I don't want to have to 'Carry' you?" she said with her gentle smile as she walked passed him and led him on. The pro caution she took was to wear a big long black cloak that covered her body, especially her middle, she also handed a traveling cloak to her 'partner'

The building of the Samurai army was an easy way to escape the village for her and Azuya. Together the two started there journey, she had a dove on her arm as they walked out, carrying a note "Go on little one.. Find Chi" she spoke to the bird as she made it flutter off.

With the large cloak about her, Maria started to walk out of the village. It had been a while since she saw sunlight, so outside the gates she was rather surprised "Azuya.. Do you still know the route to the Land of Earth? " she asked while putting on a headband of the Mist "I am terrible with directions... "

----------BATTLE AT DAWN---------(Sketch )
Sketch already had all her books at the ready. Her papers where bristling in the early desert wind. She was wearing a Sand Village ninja uniform. and stared right at her friend who dropped in her own battle stance.

Seconds later Sketch started to draw on her book, then put her fingers together for a Jutsu. The things she drew on her book, hawk-like birds, raise up from her book and flew toward Melody. Sketch herself took more distance flipping the page for a next drawing.

~~~~Fowl~~~~

It seemed flawless. How can you fight what you cannot see? Fowl was clueless, but then so was dust. Too busy planting her traps and avoiding Tokara's moving shadow, that she forgot about her stationary shadow. "Gotcha~" Fowl giggled as the silver blade parted her hair. Fowl's shadow grappled Dust into submission. "Well that didn't last long." She sighed. "You really shouldn't just fall behind people, it's too obvious~<3"
((i''m sorry if this seems like God modding, but i can explain it all in my next post))
~~~~Kayuko~~~~~~

Kayuko shifted and crumbled into dust. "Earth release: Arena"" the real Tsuchikage called before the top of the crater was sealed off, save a few light holes. "now sister. now more tricks just the style of our ancestors. let me remind you why i became Tsuchikage."

Kiroshi folded her hands behind her back, observing the battle. Judith was just as fierce as she had used to be. As she watched she flash backed slightly, to the day she had brought her down, the scenes shifting in between in her mind. She very much hoped she would not have to fight her again, watching her go now reminded her of the power the girl held at her command. It was not a power she offended lightly. She was glad she was not in Nel's place right now. However so far she saw no reason to interfere, Nel seemed to be holding quite good with her water techniques.

Instead of interfering now she began to wonder how she should do it. Should she use a jutsu? Block them with her hands? No jutsu would be best, she couldn't be sure that Judith would stop willingly. It would be better if she just blocked her using jutsu. Perhaps a water prison for both of them. Yes, that would do nicely. Perhaps adding some of the chakra draining mist into it in case they got aggressive. With the plan on how to stop them complete, Kiroshi went back to watching.

---

Chi was halfways to the main village when the letter reached her. She looked up, spotting the bird, and she recognized at once its intent. She let the dove land on the ground, and she went onto her knees, finding the letter. She moved it off the birds feet, noticing the dove waiting by her feet as she uncurled the letter to read its content. (I am not sure what's within it so I can't really write more than that.)

“Right.. Head toward the central room. When all the chairs share the same amouth of light, a becon lits upon the mark of the dragon. When the light crosses, you will find a passage that hides the deepest reaches of this fortress.. Enjoy” The voice spoke misteriously before he faded away
------------
Julia
----------
Marching back into the room of battle.. Julia noticed Kasumi standing still... what was she plotting... “Kasumi.. I have one more objective for you” she spoke as she crouched beside “Zen” “His chambers will be brought here soon.. He seems almost uninjured.. but all Chakra is gone from him.. “ AS you know he does not want anyone but you in his chambers.. So please tend to that” she spoke before standing up and walkign on

She stared over the large plains.. in the distance her army would be seen marching.. they where here first.. now what was left was to prepare and then challange the Shinobi to an honerable war.. “ They cannot resist the threat of the 9 tailed beasts.. They will accept.. Then we will know who is strongest”

Haruka

Haruka laughed slighty as she saw the stones closing about her “Good.. You live.. .I was affraid this was going to be an utter dissapointment” she spoke and observed what was happening arround her.. It wasnt hard to see; Kayuko was shutting out her summons and the ablity to use the sky for wide range or nature using lighting attacks, a fight that the Hyuga prided themselfs on “Alright then...” she unstrapped the sword she stole from the mist.. and her own short katana, and together with her cloack she tossed them through a gap in the closing rock

The stone shut behind her as she turned to her sister.. “Byakugan!” her eyes stretched storngly and became a focused entity.. she took a battle position.. “Lets go Sis.. Do not dissapoint me!” shje spoke as she charged in, No lighting.. this was coming down to a honerable, close range competition

Melody
-------------
Melody, Her fighting style as ellegant as that she dressed.. she smliled as she saw the hawks coming.. then quicky pressed her hands together once and took a deep breath in, the air arround her mouth a slight green

She broke the symbol she made and started to move gracefully.. bending her knee , stretching her toes and cocking her hips, she dodged the incomming birds and stepped over to the next flowing motion. Her long dress seeping as she made another turn.. Melody’s ability was a as complex as it was usefull. As expensive as it was strong. Melody did not form seals through the mere motions of hands

She turned to another step, and with her hair cascading in the air, she took two small quick steps back, her hands gliding freely. Then she moved her left hand to her lips. And made a blow kiss. From beneath her came the a blast of wind. A Futon Jutsu. The wind shreaded through the birds and made Melody turn about.. again making the seal and breathing in. This time a bright red air before she bowed deeply, one arm up, and her eyse locked on Sketch

---- THE TRAPPER TRAPPED?! ----- ( Dust )
Behind the comfort of her mask, Dust’s eye shot more wide then the mouth of a shark “ How?!” the female spoke as her blade was caught in the stands that covered her neck “ She saw through my Jutsu...?”

What more, Dust felt limb, she was standing yes, But that was about it.. “Kagemane..Jutsu?” she whimpered weakly.. What amounts of Chakra! This little girl was immobilizing her in instants “ Darn you..”

There wasn't much more that Dust could do right now.. But this was not the end for her, as one wrong movement could still set off her back up plans

( Sorry it isn't much, it has been a long while )

-------- BLOOD ON THE WATER, RED MIST IN THE AIR-------- ( Judith )
Judith was interested in this girl.. She seemed exciting and open to be played with “ It takes some skill to get water up all the way here.. I commend you for doing that” She spoke as she brushed her hair from her face..

This exposed a rugged mark upon her face, with a bright yellow iris, surrounded by black “But the Question remains?? Is it enough?!” From her Back emerged more of the rocky formation.. though not being stones, it was the best way to describe the sub-organic matters that grew out of her

Blue flares of Chakra, working as propulsion fire shot from her backside.. and with a fierce anger she charged forward, The large battleaxe at the ready for her to slay, kill, destroy and every other form to indicate the fierce will to win that streamed from this girl

----------A FLYING PROMISE------ ( Maria’s Dove )
The Bird looked upon her with its head tilted as Chi red the contents of the letter:
“Dearest Chi.

Our Mistress has started to put her plan into motions. While all moves according to her plan, The Princess has trusted me with making sure you understood your task, and are up to it.

Head toward the Village Hidden in the Mist, and use your special ability to roar them up for battle. Unlike the other villages, You are the only one capable of doing this.

Once the technique is in place, You are to head for the Village Hidden in the City. We will meet you there for the second stage of the plan.

With all her love, Mother”

The Dove looked upon Chi with its wonder eyes. The paw still extended as if waiting for a reaction.

( Sorry that this is all, The RP had moved less then i had anticipated )

----------DANCING IN THE SUN------ ( Clay. Melody )
Sketch was not unfamiliar with these... movements. She knew all to well how Melody operated. Her art of using all 5 elements, but unable to combine them at all, was well known to her. Unfortunately for Melody,She had a variety of that herself! With a new empty scroll, the girl quickly started to paint . First she sketched the symbols for Tiger. Horse, Pig and Bird., then she drew the symbol for water and a dragon flowing out of it.

When she pressed her hands together, the scroll started to light up, and from it emerged a watery dragon, speeding toward Melody. While the dragon made its way though the sky, Sketch outlay-ed two more scrolls. Jumping back slowly and letting these long ones roll out all the way . She was not going to lose to her rival! Not today!

Meanwhile from up high of the wall, sat a man watching the artistic form of battle.. He enjoyed the flowing of paint and motions of dance in the form of battle “My students.. Ever so graceful! “

Cozzy: Zen
Shattered: B
Fated: Zen

'Zen' had really done nothing since the cultist had gotten him cornered. He was still smiling under his mask. He was tired because of how much they could take over and over again.
When they fell, something snapped close to him, the Spirit had vanished to a point that it was a explosion to him. His body dropped to the floor, as if it was like the other cultists.

-unknown location-
'Zen' rose his head up and looked at the darken world from his real eyes. "Seems like I lost the connection...." Under his mask was a very wicked looking smile. He felt Kasumi's mind trying to speak to him.

-Back at the fortress-
Soon after Julia had shown up and stated about finding a room. 'Zen' stood up and cracked his neck and a few joints. "Yes I will" Walking away he felt Kasumi's chakra moving away from him. Fixing his mask he leaves towards Kasumi. 'Where are you, Kasumi?'

=Zen's Body of Human Path =
Outside the Fortress, it stood. Turning around and starts to leave for the central chamber of where the other Paths were located. The body of the female moved fast as its purpose was to oversee the movement of the Paths to the new location.

------------------------

B had just arrived, he kinda lost his way. He was not happy, this forest to him looked the same everywhere.

-----Fowl-----

Fowl sighed. moving her hand, she force her opposition's and dropped the blade; a small chime as it hit the ground. "That would have been close. but then, I decided to get serious." She giggled mischievously. she took a few steps, her 'puppet' following and mimicking her movements. "You see. I'm a master puppeteer. What I do is manipulate, so i have to think ahead. So I learned this fun Jutsu to make people my puppets." She spun around and so did Dust. "As far as knowing where you were, well." she paused and held her hand in thought, as if deciding if she should reveal something or not. "You see, I have an eye similar to the Byakugan, but then again it's not. Kind of confusing i know, lets just say i could dimly see your chakra points. yeah that sounds right!"

"Now then, lets clear the way to that pesky cow." The pool of shadow retracted and the needles sticking in the ground were pulled free with chakra strings; Dust mimicked this action. But then she stopped pulling them out till she had a path of needles to the dome that housed Koto. "first things first. gotta send a dummy. "she pulled a small puppet from her torn sleeve and out popped a miniature puppet which wandered foward looking for traps.

-----Kayuko-----

"Byakugan" Spoke the Tsuchikage, taking up a more defensive stance than her sibling. this would be a hard fight. One won by a single mistake of the other. She stared at her sister for what seemed like hours, waiting for the right moment. Would she attack first or would Haruka. It seemed obvious with past bouts that the younger would initiate the first strike, and be countered in turn. But that was then and this is now, and now was different. they were both adults, and both have been trained differently since adolescence.

Her palms reminded up ready to force her chakra through the points she saw cover her sister. this was taking to long, and she was growing tired of her sister's constant banter. Kayukko closed her lower hand and formed needles of chakra and threw them at her sister, hoping to force the first error as fast as possible. she could see that Dust had already been disabled and soon koto would be taken.

Sin: Nothing yet, but its coming!
Zen: Kenji
Atty: Kenji
Sivvy: Haruka
Valkyria: Melody

Julia

Spirit of V
---------
Will also remain still till i see the right time to have him involve again , basicly because all he could do now was filler questions, and i want to save some of those for later x3
---------
Kenji
--------
Before long, a large owl flapped its wings down near the fortress, and as it set to land, Kenji Uchiha dismounted from the creature with his price and his wounded partner “ You need to be patched up..” He spoke to the man of many fashionstatements “You are a mess after that”

With him to his arm, and the Jinchuuriki under the other, the last surivivor of the Uchiha clan walked into the fortress.. when he landed he saw “Zen” and thus decided to report thusly “ Five tails is in our possesion.. Where would you want her..?”
------------
Haruka
----------
Haruka could see beyond the dome what was happening.. No. Not yet.. She couldnt let her sister get out.. in fact, she rather would bury her in this very dome. Without a second thought she turned her back to take the needles... yes that hurt.. but atleast it wouldnt disable her.. her follow through was swift, and full of retributional anger

“Sister.. You are not getting to her.. Your time is over! Do not worry.. I will protect our village in my own way.. Once i become the new Tsuchikage!” she moved her hands like the fangs of a wolf.. Hungry wolves, as she tried to make her sister back into the corner of the dome
-----------
Melody
--------
After she finishedher final dance paterns, she took a sway of her hand, firing a barage of fire balls in a heated blaze right for the watery dragon. The connection caused a blanket of steam and mist to roll over the batlle field. a deep fog that enrolled strongly over the sand was a rare sight, only seen when two Jutsu masters crossed

From the damp of the mist only one thing could be sensed.. and that was a sound; the sound of singing.. gentle words where chanted from the voice of the singstress, the traveling preformer that doozed many enemy’s with her mere words.
--------------

------- A FAILED MISSION-------( Dust )
“W-What?! You can see Chakra points within me??” Dust stated as she felt her mucles move beyond her own commands. As she had to resign to the command of the girls shadow. “Impossible! Only Visual jutsu’s have such an ability! Why is my body not responding at all??” Dust had lost her cool in such an overwhelming moment.. 98 Missions.. 98 Successes. She was not accustomed to being Unsuccessful.

But when the blade disconnected from Dust’s hand, hell busted lose. The sound of a metallic wire being released echoed through the now silent mountain side. Six wires in total where freed from the pressure, and thus activated the traps they where linked to. Kunai loaded with explosive tags flew up from the ground scattering in a circle around Koto. In such a range it was, that when there explosions let lose, they did damage, but not reach the center of Koto’s protection

It was this moment where Dust again tried to stretch her limbs... Would that have freed her from the grasp of her oppressor?

------A SONG WITHOUT LYRICS------ ( Sketch )
As Melody faded into the must, Sketch prepared her two brushes with a fresh dolt of ink.. she was ready for it... That was until she heard the soft song that rolled of her lungs. Sketch eyes grew wide as she placed both her brushes upon the empty scrolls and ran forward.. No! She could not be captured in that Genjutsu!

She ran with all her strength and speed.. sketching on the two long scrolls as she went. Halfway through a kite started to rise the two scrolls up and by the time Sketch reached the end of her scroll she put her hands together in symbols

The kites took the scrolls up high.. and then the images on her paper became real. It rained down kunai, shuriken and explosives from the two flying papers. Spreading through the misty cloud. But yet she still heard that song... Was she to late? Had she been captured in the Jutsu? Or had she simply missed? All Sketch could do was get her coloring book.. and prepare for the next step.

-------NINJUTSU VS TAIJUTSU-------- ( Judith )
A new.technique she had not seen before? Judith was in! Despite the potential danger of the move, she sweep-ed her axe like arm her eyes glaring with the pure passion of battle. Not being one for using Ninjutsu. Judith scoffed at most of them, as her axe landed within the ground and stuck there

“ Get over here!” She suddenly shouted, her other arm grew just as rugged and fierce. Before extending in large speed right toward Nel, seemingly aiming for a grapple move

---Tokara----

the explosions were bright and violent; bright enough to erase her shadow from existence. "Damn it!" the little ninja cried, shielding her eyes. her puppet took the blast that was meant for her, fortunate for her. With her shadow gone, Dust was free to retreat and rethink her plan of attack, or try to take out the small one again.

----Kayuko---

A move like this was expected. A swift attack, difficult to counter. She stepped backwards and slapped the hungry wolves like the blunt side of a blade. It wouldn't be long before she would be against a wall and would have to face her sister's attack head on. She brought her hands in wards and spread them to force her sister's away for an opening. And with that opening Kayuko forced her chakra to perform the body slam technique to force her sister back.

'Zen' notices Kenji showing up, he turns his head to his question. "Soon as the others are moved, I will summon the Demonic Statue. So best to take 'it' down to the dungeon..." 'Zen' couldnt help but laugh. "Cant believe we have a dungeon now..." Waving off to Kenji, he walks to follow Kasumi.

-Central Chamber-
The Female Zen walks into the chamber and starts to do inspection and start packing up some supplies. A few things that were hidden away are removed and placed in a sack on her waist.
