IWAGAKURE NO SATO - Geology Research Institute (Overview

<sub>It has been the leader in paleontological excavations and preparation since the First Great Shinobi World War, helping supply museums and collectors the finest in professionally prepared fossils and cast replicas. From the great dragon beasts of legend to the only complete example of the Relancth Behemoth, sailing stones to ammonites to prehistoric crinoids to trilobites, the Iwagakure GRI has not only unearthed many of the most important archaeological finds to date, it has developed cutting edge macro-technology on a scale formerly thought only remotely theoretically plausible.

Much of its staff is actively engaged in the ongoing research of fossil vertebrates, invertebrates, and rare minerals preserved in the great caverns of Chthon. To help accomplish this, it has an extensive reference library that covers a large portion of the vertebrate and invertebrate paleontology from the Iwa No Kuni Interior, along with the geology and mineralogy of not only this region, but other major and minor nations as well.

This of course, is only it's public face.</sub>


The institute itself was built near the beginning of Iwagakure No Sato's original establishment; the massive totems depicting archaic gods and squat boorish deities were largely remnants of the underground civilization inhabiting the deep caverns of the 'village' far before shinobi ever existed. The Emma'ho were originally a savage and brutal people, until their discovery of the ability to manipulate elemental chakra that helped preserve the earth that had begun to collapse around their fragile home. Rebuilding and re-educating themselves, the Emma'ho became leaders of philosophical thought, but an ingrained xenophobic reserve prevented them from interacting with the outside world, and sharing their knowledge. They developed macro-technology, a branch of science that developed mechanical energy through the use of mountain-sized carved stones and gears, powered by the geothermic vents that criss-crossed their city like roads of heat. In this way, they were able to build constructions of such complexity and size, that even now, a thousand years later, these relics still stand, testaments to the ingenuity of the past.

Recently the Emma'ho had reemerged from the depths of this ancient relic structure. Once a new tunnel had been excavated and hollowed out, what Iwagakure discovered was a whole underworld with its own political system. Though they do not identify with "surface dwellers" they do show some promise and have accepted a type of peace treaty and an ally relationship. It was found out that the Emma'ho had branched off into three separate sub species of human.

One being Elves, whom are show great intelligence and a keen knowledge of all things ancient. The Elves appear slightly taller than your average human with pointed ears and a bit more of a slender body build. On the other hand there are the Dwarfs who are stout and staky cousins of the elves. Hair seems to grow very well upon their face and even the females. They have a keen ability to work with stone, and an insight for architecture. Then finally the Gnomes, whom seem to be a smaller version of a human. Save for their pointed ears one could not identify them as different from a human child. They speak quickly and have an extreme intelligence for technology.

They built deeper things, hidden objects. They tunneled into the earth, beneath the lower levels of what many conceive is possible. They found secret dark places near the core.

<sup>The Geology Research Institute lies inside of the Ishikore Dome, an enclosed underground complex built to expand nearly the entire size of Iwagakure's upper levels. The small man-made lake is fed by a waterfall carrying precious ore throughout the facility. It extends inside and outside of the main building, and can be entered exclusively by travel through large metal doors. The main entrance is startling close to the tip of the highest mountain in Iwagakure. At the top the metal doors are only able to be opened by Iwagakure Shinobi. The doors themselves are guarded by the Anbu Bear Division and if not a Shinobi then one would need special permission from the Tsuchikage to enter.

There is also another entrance that is connected to the Tsuchikage's Tower, which is probably more heavily armed then the entire GRI. The Iwagakure Tower had sunk into the GRI itself. It is now apart of this underground facility. As if it was always meant to be it stands in the center of the abandoned city as pristine as it was above ground. With the help of the Emma'ho platforms and bridges are being constructed onto the tower itself so that it is connected with the major facilities of the GRI. Above the tower had been covered over by earth and roots. Its as if the Tower was never there and is now within the dome shielding of the GRI.

The Dome shielding of the GRI is compromised of heavy metals at about 10 feet thick. It is shielded with chakra so that if any were to touch this metal then it is siphoned off into a generator room. This is to protect the GRI from intrusions from earth users or other techniques. This chakra shielding is actually the base techniques for most Shinobi villages to protect them from the Flying Thunder God (Harashin) technique. If someone truly wished to invade this structure they would need a Gigantic mechanical Drill that can drill through such heavy metal.</sup>

ENTRANCE

The Entrance is old and worn however it is still fully capable of being found by the lead of another shinobi. It is high in the mountains guarded by three AnBu Bear day-in and day-out. As it is in the mountains it tends to be snow covered and chilly. The huge double doors are made of a thick 5 feet heavy metal that has an ingeniuse gravity actuated mechanical mechanism to open it. The locking of this door is much like a vault where huge round pins drive into the supporting structure. It would take a lot to open this 10 meter by 10 meter double door structure. If not a Shinobi of the village you must get special permission to enter.

GRI - Hill Centre Lab

The Hill Centre Lab is the main source of the Institute's considerable success; a separate facility within the massive compound mostly concerned with unearthing strange new materials, gemstones, and defending the land from earth based threats buried too far under the surface to become an issue for the villages larger population. It contains a holding facility for things considered too dangerous for traditional containment, and is fully staffed by experts in nearly every field. Those seeking to imorove Iwagakure or even the GRI iteslf are rewarded. Hill Centre Lab does not pay in traditional ryo, but instead, have their income supplemented by rare precious stones which can be traded for surplus equipment at the Iwagakure Tower.

There is a dilapidated library within this portion of the GRI. Updates and construction are needed to observe a more pleasant reading session. The books in this portion cannot be taken out of the library but can be read within the Hill Centre Lab. The books are guarded by a squad of Anbu Bear, and Owl division. You must check a book out with them to read it there, then return it before you exit the Hill Centre Lab. The cost of the book is taken as collateral until the book is returned. -Subject to change when components are completed-

There is also a laboratory for any chakra orientated business. This laboratory also needs updating and renders no bonuses. In fact the tools and equipment can only be considered improvised because of their outdated statues. -Subject to change when components are completed-

GRI - Training Rooms

The Training Rooms are used by Iwagakure shinobi. They were originally human research facilities but over-time that was deemed inhumane the space was long after left empty. Only after a short period of time and with a lot of cleaning (Even though there is still a lot of litter and rusted metal everywhere) it became a large open space that was quickly rescued and used as a training facility. There is a pool of water, plenty of dirt and means to get just about as much weights as you need. Everything is seemingly rusted and if you take some wrong steps it might be the last mistake you ever make. This area is a simple 100x100 cubed room with plenty of ledges and metal reinforced walk ways.

GRI - Crafting Institute

Somewhat self explanatory, this area is specifically used for those of the shinobi's that wish to train in the art of crafting. It has every tool imaginable and every part you will ever need. Fully stocked to the teeth, there's even a sewing machine and a leather press for shoes. Unfortunately many of these things have been out of use for quite some time and at best they can be used as improvised tools.

GRI - Medic/Species research facilities

Thought we were the only species out there? Think again. This research facility dissects and categorizes every specie ever found. Heck the doctors there are so over qualified they can even fix up wounds on regular shinobi as well. Even the kage has been said to make trips here from time to time. The staff are full equipped to the teeth. Most of the money from stone has been put into this one singular sector alone, even though its the smallest. Probably because of the past medical kages or because having the best medicine out there really does put you higher up there then other villages. All-in-all The GRI ends here for basic shinobi and the secret stuff is just getting started.

B	5	3	6,250
A	8-9	4	12,500
S	12-14	5	25,000

Genjutsu Recovery is a complicated matter. It takes time to identify the jutsu that was inflicted, then a treatment must be administered. The treatment is not always perfect, so many attempts may be applied. Furthermore there could be mental damage such as memory loss or the likes that need recovery as well. Thus a stay within the medical facility is needed, and the bill includes the service of the Genjutsu specialist and the stay within the facility.

Rituals

Any rituals can be performed within the medical facility. This includes Augments, and Restoration (As long as requirements are met).  The bill for this is the performance cost of the Ritual. There is no need to pay for the stay within the facility as that is covered within the performance cost of the ritual.

This portion of the GRI also holds the morgue. Rather than throwing away perfectly good bodies, reaserch is done on them instead. Often medical students come to study bodies in a more personal manner. This has proven to be a far more sutible way than book learning for many Medical Doctors. The bodies are donated from various sources, and a good stock of bodies are always revolving within the morgue itself.

This tunnel was among the hardest things to discover about the facility, and it was already well-hidden itself. Within the medical institution, one of the species jars had a secret beyond the mutated animal within. If you were to find a small button hidden on the roof above the tank, invisible against the ceiling, and push it with an approved thumb while no one else was in the room, the glass would slide down with a hiss. Through a clever optical illusion, there would be just enough space between the actual tank and the false glass for an average man to slip through. Sliding down the railing provided, you'd land in the tunnel. The tunnel split into two directions, and walking more then five steps in the wrong one caused a multitude of traps to spring at once. Kunai would fly out, flames would erupt, and nerve gas would spray up from the ground. If you chose the right way, however, then you'd simply continue down a long tunnel, with eyes watching you from every crevice and shadow. This tunnel was discovered to be the beginnings of the Umbra. This is the starting domain of the Emma'ho. From this point on is beyond the jurisdiction of Iwagakure.

To enter the Umbra, exit the GRI (thread) through this tunnel. Once that is complete you will be in the Umbra.

GRI S.S. - Abandoned City

The abandoned city was crafted many years earlier and is mostly used as a war-time city. Although a war has caused the shinobi of Iwagakure to use it, and it is very much needed.

Shinbo housing is allowed for Anbu, Jounin, Sannin, Dignified, and Council members, but the rooms are standard bedrooms. The Anbu Division uses the abandoned houses and abandoned residential for training purposes and war games. Also there are buildings used to house animals and animal companions, otherwise known as stables. Each house has a basic storage, bed, and simple amenities.

A huge Auditorium, dinning area, kitchen, and residential living space is provided for diplomats, or other functions needed by the Tsuchikage to host.

Iwagakure Tower, Key to the Abandoned City

Recently due to a civil war the Iwagakure tower had been sunk into the ground. That is went it was discovered that the Tower acted as a key for the entire GRI facility. As if someone turning on the lights power coursed through. The GRI became alive again. A Giant pillar of light shoots from the top of the tower and baths the dome enacting the Shielding system. As the Tower sunk down pathways opened up and connected the tower to the various facilities of the GRI itself.

IWAGAKURE TOWER

[Top down view]

Once Built into the side of the main mountain in which the village resides is the tower for all Iwagakure shinobi. It is here that the ANBU meet, the Kage resides, and Missions are requested. This particular tower was constructed to conceal all knowledge that the tower even exists. The only exits from this tower are at the front, where people enter, and at the very top, to allow for use of the messenger room. There is also a third exit currently not available, but after an event that lead the Iwagakure Tower sink into the GRI it was discovered that a shaft straight from the tower to the village gates was discovered.

This tower had no windows rather it now has metal walkways spiraled around the outside of the tower. This is so that people can come from any facility and travel down to the base of the tower. Artificial lighting is spread throughout the entirety of the tower. There are two elevators that run through the tower. One for the members of the village to use. This leads to the Kage office and the basement floor 1. The second elevator is in the employee section that leads to all floors except for Basement floor 2. The final elevator is connected to the Kage office, and is only used by the Kage and whoever he or she allows to go through. It reaches all rooms through a secret entrance hidden by the stone walls.

Since after the Civil war Occupation movement and the Tower sinking into the GRI new discoveries are being made about the Tower's depths. More Basement levels are still yet to be discovered and are currently under investigation.

Ground Level - Top of the tower

Placed on top of the tower, where the surface of the earth meets the very top ramparts. There sits the Alexander Puppet. A colossal puppet used for the defense of the city and the tower itself. No entrance to the tower is given from puppet to tower, but it is there as a show of force. With 2 A class Anbu puppeteers as Guard, it stands statuesque upon the fade of the evening sun. This perhaps a message to all Iwagakure citizens that they are being watched. In servitute there is plenty, but should this be broken, then the wrath of the tower shall darken the streets.

Level 1 - Main Lobby

The Main Lobby is on ground level. It is here that the Ninja enter the tower to collect their missions. Most people only go to this floor to speak with the secretaries here that handle the missions and payments. Some report here for other such tasks such as when they have to leave the village. Should one wish to go to another floor, an ANBU escort will take them to the floor of their choosing. The lobby, like the rest of the tower, has stone walls. Paintings cover the walls to make it a little more decorative, but the walls are very mis-shapen. Several people sit behind a large desk to handle the missions requests. Off to the right of the entrance lies a large board to list the missions that the shinobi may pick up along with the rules for each mission.

Behind the mission board is a door with a sign stating “Employees Only.” This is actually the staff elevator as it allows the staff of the tower to go to all floors needed. Behind the desk is a screening room where messages to be sent out are opened briefly and read through to be sure no plans are being given. Anything deemed suspicious is turned over to the ANBU for further investigation and, upon approval from the Tsuchikage, then sent out. Letters to the Tsuchikage or sent from him or herself are sent out immediately. To the left of the main entrance has an elevator with two ANBU guards standing next to it. It is the common elevator as described above.

Level 2 - Kage Office

Level 2 is the Tsuchikage Office as well as the vault, though few know that the vault exists on this floor. From the main elevator, a long hallway is present before leading to a single door. Upon entering the door, the entrant would notice a mostly circular desk, the only opening being directly behind it, a row of bookcases behind the desk, and three chairs sitting in front of the desk. The desk is for the Tsuchikage to do the tasks they needs to perform. Along the right side of the office is three file cabinets, each with different files related to the village, but nothing too important. Important documents are kept in the vault. The carpet here is a deep purple with the same stone walls as the lobby. Two plants rest to the side of the entrance. A small vase sits on the desk with 8 different flowers in it. The flowers change every 3 days.

Through a special tunnel in the Tsuchikage’s office, the Tsuchikage may enter the vault directly using one of the flowers on the desk. The specific flower changes every single day and after every single use. Should anything else be inserted or any type of infiltration be tried, large blast doors would close over the entirety of the tunnel, preventing people from entering. It is also made with a very strong metal, making it very difficult if not impossible for people to pass by them. The entrance to the vault closes immediately after the entrance from the office and scanners ensure that it is truly the Tsuchikage entering. Only by stating that there is a guest with them and that person’s name before entering the entrance would the scanners not instantly sound an alarm throughout the tower, alerting all to an intruder in the tunnel. The blast doors, once again, would slam shut, possible crushing the intruder(s) and killing them instantly.

The vault has a second entrance from the other side. Using the employee elevator, one may end up on the other side of the vault where an ANBU lies waiting for approval. Only with a signed and sealed note from the Tsuchikage would the other be allowed to enter the vault and the person must sign in, showing that they were there. Cameras are in the vault sending the recording to a setup on the fourth floor, a special room in the Kage office, and the lobby to ensure that if anything happens, it would be caught. Attempts to enter the vault without it being opened by the ANBU guard would cause the large vault door to be locked in several different places and a large metal blast door to close in front and behind the main vault door.

The back wall of the offices shows various pictures. They are either members of the council or still living Dignified Tsuchikages:

  

Dignified Kages:

• Godaime Jimarai Kotetsu

Level 3 - ANBU Rooms

It is on Level 3 that the ANBU mainly reside. The captains coordinate their subordinates here as well as assign missions to the ANBU specifically. Any who wish to join the ANBU must first speak with the Tsuchikage who will request the captain of the specific division to come down and examine the potential recruit. As the main elevator does not usually lead up here, all ANBU may use either the employee elevator or the main elevator as a special signal is given from their masks to allow entrance into ANBU HQ.

This floor also houses several meetings rooms. The Tsuchikage may hold meetings here or in their office and this is also where the Ninja Council of Iwagakure meets to discuss major plans and current topics of importance. Any new hires to the tower are also interviewed here. Little information of importance is kept here. All employee records and important paperwork is inside the vault. One person who is in charge of this area has a special pass that must be shown along with a DNA sample in order to gain access to the vault. This way, he does not need permission from the Tsuchikage at all times.

Level 4 - Messenger Room

Here on Level 4, the messenger owls of Iwagakure reside. All letters coming in and going out leave through this room. All outgoing and incoming letters are screened down in the lobby, minus those leaving by the hand of the Tsuchikage, or something with their seal. If a message of dire importance is listed, then the message may be screened here and sent to where it needs to go. This is the only thing in level 4 and that is why it is at the top as it is the level of least importance.

Currently there is a large shaft or tunnel used for ventilation. This tunnel is made of metal duct work and is used by messenger birds. It is monitored by cameras for any intrusion and an Anbu stands by to keep watch of messages and any possible intrusions. The ventilation shaft connects down to Basement 1 then through the GRI then finally through the secret Stone Village Gates entrance. Though with the Anbu topside, and the security of that tunnel itself, the security for this is tight.

Here is a flood of Anbu whom use this space as a Monitoring room. There are a few security controls within this hidden room. They control the monitors for whatever security may be placed around the village. The monitors are behind a wall with a one way mirror so those that pass through this room cannot see the monitor room.

So suffice it to say this room that one must pass through has camera's in it to monitor the coming and goings of others. The camera is a Binocular type camera with Thermal detection, Camera Vision, Condition Viewing Vision, X-ray viewing, Substance Locator Vision, Underwater Vision, and Night-vision Vision. The Camera itself is hung in the center of the room upon a 180 degree swivel controlled by a Monitor within the Tsuchikage office.

Basement 2 - Prison

Finally, the second basement level is the top security prison. While there is another prison in the village, that is for petty criminals such as thieves, simple kidnappers, those who perform vandalism, etc., this one is the High Security Prison for Missing Ninja, Enemy Ninja, Mass Murderers, Serial Killers, etc. This particular prison is under very high security from many ANBU. Thick plexi-glass is used to make up the cells. Every once in a while, the Tsuchikage may go down to inspect the running of the prison and ensure that those that are here are here to stay. No reports of an escape have come from this prison and the elevator, once down here, will not work unless the Tsuchikage authorizes it’s movement. A hidden camera is in the elevator that feeds directly to their office to ensure that all is taken care of.

Godric sent a message to the Anbu Captain and then all hell broke loose. A few Anbu came and boarded up the door. Then from an unknown location within the tower four Anbu destroyed the corner stones of the tower. This initiated an ancient mechanism...

There was a rumbling from outside. There was no telling what was going on. Godric smiled as he announced. "Yes, the danger must be growing, for the rowers keep on rowing, and they're certainly not showing, any signs that they are slowing..." Indeed all would feel a sens of weightlessness and movement. Not being able to see outside would make this feeling even worse.

"When Iwagakure was first settled, a deep hole was found. This was the Geological Research Institute. What was found there was a completely knew world, with the settlers of this village allying themselves with the inhabitants known as the Emma'ho. And lo and behold this was my home for many years and when the settlers came I was their guide to the Umbra. Many years passed and the Iwagakure Tower was raised out of the GRI. And thus the tower stood in the center of the village for decades upon decades..." Godric explained as his eyes glassed over. His ancient knowledge and involvement with the workings of Iwagakures past.

"BUT NOW MY SHINOBI. LET THE VILLAGERS QUARREL AMONGST THEMSELVES. LET THE TOWER RETURN TO IT'S HOME!!!" Godric projected his voice as the tower felt like it shifted to a halt. Indeed the stone dome around the abandoned city closed, and the power to that sector turned on. At this point many Anbu were around the place busy with preparations. Security measures were being compensated. Somehow Nelly made it back into the tower before it sank into the GRI.

Kurai was in sight of Sairo and she ran toward him. With a huge hug she wrapped her arms around the Rokudaime. No words were spoken, simply the fright of what all went on was enough and she simply needed a release from this stress.

Thus finally Godric would speak once more, "All those involved please make your way to my office. There is much to debrief and I wish to discuss with you all." He of course was addressing the Rokudaime, the Council members, and Jericho. Heading to the elevator he pushed the button to call...

[N A T S U M I]

//Enter

After roaming the streets gathering information on a possible plot to declare war upon the village, both Dusk and I had returned to the tower with news. But the question lingering within my mind was: Who am I to report to? Was the Tsuchikage present? I had come dressed in a bubble-gum pink corset over a pair of navy jeans. A pair of knee high black stiletto boots covered my feet and the lower half of my jeans. A double scroll sized pouch was attached to my left hip which was filled with two blank medium sized scrolls. On my right hip sat my butt bag which consisted of four Fragmentation grenades, two ice grenades, fifteen blood clot pills and six kunai.

Sitting upon my corset, I had a chest rig knife holster fully loaded with ten kunai. Over all of that, I had a mauve coloured cloak (type 1) which was filled with another ten kunai. Yes, I loved my knives. I also wore a medium sized field pack which held one binocular and sixteen fifty mill vials. An oversized fan was also strapped to my back alongside my shield (heavy) which covered the pack. The fan was sitting inside its own little holster which sat a little further to the left of my body so I could grab it more quickly and easily.

If all of those items weren’t enough, I also had a world map which was tucked into my butt bag and of course my Jaguar, Dusk whom padded alongside me on soft, silent paws. Her whiskers twitched as we entered through the tower’s doors and poured into the lobby. My long ice blond hair was tied back into a braid which cascaded over my left shoulder, the edge of the plat resting above my left breast. The braid itself was secured with a black bowed ribbon. My ivory skin was flawless and without blemishes or marks. The paleness caused my black rhombus to stand out from its position in the direct centre of my forehead.

Fire engine lips smiled at the receptionist as I came to a halt in front of the desk. “I have news of a possible war occurring within the heart of Iwagakure.” I told the receptionist, my amber gaze meeting theirs seriously. Dusk’s emerald one continued to watch mine while her black body littered with chrome rings blended into the floor.

Mission: Link

[Draven]

The assistant Nelly would tilt her head and ask, "War? We just had a battle outside of the tower. What approaches now? Can I have the mission report." Nelly seemed to start to become a little frantic. Papers started to fly as she was looking for what to do in this situation. It was a mild frustration and annoyance, though of course due to recent activities, the reason was obeviously because of all this internal fighting within Iwagakure.

But then Godric approached. Rathern than taking the elevator, he had heard this tidings of war. Looking toward Aurora he asked "What is happening?" Said the Tsuchikage Vampire. He stood at 8 foot tall and with an almost emotionless posture. He was not doing this on purpose, but rather he was an old being and his social skills have been effected by such a long life.

Of course Godric was wearing his Tsuchikage hat and robe so he was easily identified as the Tsuchikage. His skin was pale and smooth, and as if marbled there was cracking. Yet it was more like alabaster. Aside from that, what could be noticed around this place was a plethora of Anbu running about. The Tower had recently dropped into the ground and was not apart of the Geological Research Institute. There were still many preparations making this place functional again.

Meanwhile Kurai in the messenger room received an Iwagakure messenger bird. The message tied to its leg was from the Takikage. She took the message and headed off to the Tsuchikage office for delivering...

[N A T S U M I]

The assistant behind the desk was not pleased about my introduction and had exclaimed about a war already being present. For a moment I resisted the urge to roll my eyes. Sigh. I had over the mission report after having written down my observations and what my soul silver had observed also. I felt sorry for Nelly though, she was obviously stressed. But at the sound of another voice, Dusk was on her feet, head low.

I turn around and spot an incredibly tall man emerging from an elevator. Immediately I recognised him, even without the ceremonial hat Kage wear, I would have known him anywhere. Immediately I bend at the waist, bowing low. “My Lord.” I said, straightening up to my full height. Dusk continued to watch the man, but her posture was less aggressive. “I have just returned from a scouting mission in the lesser district of the village,” I explain, knelling down beside Dusk.

“I had come across a small child, an academy kunoichi who had been mortally wounded. She had asked me to save the others. The others I later found out to be a small group of nine children. These kids had been kidnapped and bought to a hidden attic above a club where they were being brainwashed by robed figures.” Pause. “Said figures were reptilian in nature and had knowledge of Katon jutsu, sir. They were discussing a war involving mythical creatures.” I finished, stroking along Dusk’s back. The touch calmed her to the point when she was laying on the ground at my feet purring.

When I rose to my full height, my amber gaze bore into the Tsuchikage’s. “There is something very serious going on. And I have a feeling that this war that those reptile men were talking about, is going to happen very soon.” My tone was grave, my expression concerned. But had the Tsuchikage already known about this?

[KoKoKo]

WRaith's mind reached out into the tower in an attempt to contact Brian. Should the connection be made he would begin to explain the situation. - Brian, It's wraith. I'm on an AnBu Mission and the squad member Aria has just up an ran off out of the prison. The lady has passed out but accepted the directive seal. Could you possibly send over another shinobi, if possible one of the yamanaka clan? -

ooc - Neitto has agreed to join my mission

[Neitto]

-Enter-

Neitto woke today with a bounce in his step, today he was going to undertake his first mission as a Genin. After his morning routine he set out for Tower. It was his first time going inside, he couldn't wait too see it from the inside. He approached the tower and was captivated by the size. Now that he was here, the bounce in his step was replaced with butterflies in his stomach.  He entered the tower and made way for the front desk where a woman was seated. "G-Good morning! he stuttered "M-My name is Neitto! A new Genin of Iwagakure and I am here to request my first mission!" He let out a slight grin, hoping to cover his nervousness from the receptionist. 

[Draven]

Neitto and KoKoKo
Brian received a telepathic message from Wraith. Sending a message back he noted, "I will let Nelly know." And with that Brian went over to Nelly and passed the message. With that Neitto approached and Nelly recognized a potential replacement for Wraith him from the village files on Neitto. Before the Genin could talk with Brian, Nelly interrupted him and stated, "I am to assume you are Neitto. Your presence is requested at the local prison. You need to find an Anbu currently in interrogation. Tell them the Tower sent you."

N A T S U M I and Sairo Zassou

Godric listened to what was going on. It seemed the village was infested with these Dragon like beings. Listening to Aurora, he was quiet and let the women speak. He re-adjusted his robe as he was listening. This case sounded particularly heart wrenching, well if not that he wasn't a blood sucking immortal. But none the less children was an asset to the village and this upset him, so at least this frustration and concern toward this issue shown on his face.

He wondered at this intently. Then remembering there was an actual Dragon within the vault he turned to the Rokudaime first, "Rokudaime, if you will accompany to the vault, we have an interrogation to conduct." Then to address Aurora he would speak with a smile, "I thank you for your service, if you are willing to come with me and perhaps the Rokudaime, we can get down to the root of all of this." Thus he would wait for the two to reply.

[Neitto]

"I am to assume you are Neitto. Your presence is requested at the local prison. You need to find an Anbu currently in interrogation. Tell them the Tower sent you."

The Prison? What would they need with me, a genin? Neitto thought to himself. It couldn't be a mistake, they needed him for a reason. He accepted this mission with a confident "Yes ma'am! I will report straight away!" He turned around to head for the door he came through. The grin he was wearing faded once his face was out of her view. He thoughts quickly turned sour, never having been to a prison, with visions of what takes place there. While he exited the tower he inhaled deep, paused, and exhaled to calm himself as he left for the local prison.

-Exit-

[N A T S U M I]

The Tsuchikage seemed relatively still when I spoke of the situation. But his expression told many stories. He was upset about what had happened to the children. But when he spoke again, I did not expect such a request. Partaking in an interrogation with both the current Tsuchikage and the Rokudaime was an honour I could give up. I nodded enthusiastically. “Of course! I am every bit cautious and determined to sort this out as you are, my Lord!”

Dusk’s large head rose up from its resting position at her feet. Her long tail swished in anticipation. She was curious as well. Although the jaguar did not stand nor move, her tail spoke silently. “Am I needed for healing sessions should the one being questioned need medical attention? I mean, I am not overly fond of torturing a person, Lord Tsuchikage for I am a medic, not an AnBU Wolf..” The moment the words left my mouth, I instantly regretted saying them. What would this eight foot giant think of that?

[Sairo Zassou]

Much had happened, and it was surprising to see it all. The tower itself lowered into the ground, now hidden from the public eye. The interior was the same as it had been, but the tower itself was deep within the GRI. Godric called for others to meet in the office, but another coming in and speaking of war stopped him.

He then asked for me to join him for an interrogation, but after what she spoke of, I pulled from my pocket the poster that I had finally transcribed.

"While the information isn't of as much use after the battle is finished, there could be information available here."

I said, showing it to Godric. He would be unable to read the hidden message, so I spoke it for him.

"The message is actually a hidden message. It's written in Draconic, but has a hidden meaning that I finally figured out. It states....
"My Dragon kin,
On this date xx-xx, and time xx:xx rally the citizens. Make them angry, make them revolt against the authority. We march upon the Tower...
Your Alpha, Nuzlock""

I said to him, allowing him to ponder that as we left for the interrogation. If they spoke Draconic, I wanted to be there.

[Draven]

Godric sent a gentle smile to Aurora, "Oh you shouldn't fret, this is a Dragon we are talking about. Your recent statement suggest you might have a perspective toward this subject. That and your a new face that I haven't seen. I'd hope to evaluate your skills a bit..." Taking Aurora by the hand and then kissing the top of it in a very old fashioned chivalrous way. It was an ease into an introduction but it should do...

Then Turning to Sairo Godric would nod, "Saara had this shown to be a while back. I thought now would be a good time to investigate this further. Indeed a Dragon resides within the tower and I am to assume it speaks the tongue of such beasts." Just then Kurai showed up and gave Godric a message that had just arrived. It was marked with the seal of the Takikage. A slight grin came from Godric as he took it into possession. He would then take Aurora's mission report into possession as well and turned to Brian. "Brian!" Said Godric, and a quick "YES'SIR!" came from the secondary assistant.

"Get that beast ready for questioning. Make sure it's chained up extra well. WE may need to employ stronger methods to make it talk..." An ominous warning to the dragon for sure, one that it could not hear. Godric was motioning for Aurora and the Rokudaime to follow. It was time to go to the vault. Should the Rokudaime look over to Kurai, he would notice the awe in her eyes as she had not seen the Rokudaime in a while(At this point Tie, you can take over as GM for Kurai, since she is your personal assistant). Thus the elevator dinged and the doors opened, Godric went inside.

[N A T S U M I]

Being told not to fret coming from an eight foot man who was pasty white in colour wasn’t all that comforting, but I could only nod. Speechless as he took my hand and planted a kiss upon it. He seemed very gentlemanly for a creepy guy. The gentle move sent a shiver down my spine, one that I tried to hide until the former Tsuchikage spoke up.

It seemed the other kage had something on him regarding the situation. My gaze shifted from the taller man to the much shorter one. In fact Sairo was roughly my height since I was wearing heels. I watched as he handed Godric the parchment and spoke again. My attention shifted between two men while Dusk remained silent at my feet. But at the mention of the word Draconic I turn toward Sario.

“Ah, forgive my interruption, my lord but what is Draconic?” I ask, a blush creeping up my neck to flood my pale cheeks. My amber gaze shifted lower toward the man’s mouth; I was embarrassed and could not meet his eyes. But at Godric’s words regarding a dragon speaking tongues, I dropped my gaze to the floor. But as Godric spoke again, a simple order was made before both Sairo and I were gestured to follow the leader. I presumed we were heading toward the area where this dragon was located.

Upon seeing the elevator, I watched Godric enter the small box, surprised that someone as tall as he could even fit inside such a small confinement and followed. Dusk climbed to her feet and padded her way into the lift as well and positioned herself beside the doors moments before they closed. “This will be interesting..” I murmured, glancing down upon my jaguar before looking up at Godric. Someone so tall was frightening to stand next to.

Michiko , her AnBu mask on perfectly but her robe in a slight disarray (like she got dressed while running out the door) , tears into the building trailing Junko behind her like the two just escaped a 20 year prison sentence with nothing to eat and are now entering an all you can eat buffet. She reaches the desk and delivers the evidence of the successful mission so she and junko can receive their reward as well as their credit for a successful AnBu mission. A short conversation with the receptionist at high speeds conveys she would like to borrow a few village training scrolls for personal training as well as would like another AnBu mission. She hands the receptionist a slip of paper with the Cat AnBu seal on it to signify what type of AnBu mission. SPOILER: Click to show This is the returned mission: Name: Eliminate Rank: B IIC Length: 2 days Difficulty: Hard Objective: Some missing ninjas are simply to strong to capture or are to elusive, eliminate them.

Special: "Hand Seals" Drawback: If used too closely to the user, they can be injured. Beyond that, the opponent can potentially notice the attack and dodge it by moving away, as the ground will rumble for a moment before the fang rises upwards. Description: After quickly performing the needed seals for the technique, the user will release their chakra into the ground. There, the chakra will travel to the location where the opponent is currently at and then spring that ground upwards, creating a sharp, piercing fang that is capable of penetrating through most "C" Rank defenses in one shot. The fang can reach, at maximum, four feet in height. The technique may be learned an additional time to add spinning to the fang, making it a drilling attack that causes more injury.

Description: Quickly performing a few seals, the user's hands will slip into the earth. With a large tug while the user is facing the opponent, the user will tug out a large amount of dirt, creating a giant boulder that will roll towards the opponent. Its speed is greater than that of most earth-based jutsu, but is still slow enough to dodge. At "B" rank, the user is capable of performing the Ram handseal after sending the boulder rolling, which will cause the boulder to explode with the force of ten exploding tags, creating a large wave of shrapnel that is capable of injuring the opponent more or striking an opponent who believes that they have dodged the attack.

If they "A" Class and they lose a limb, an organ, or any other body part, once per day the user's severed body members (fingers, toes, hands, feet, arms, legs, tails, broken bones, and ruined organs grow back. The physical regeneration is complete in 1 round if the severed members are present and touching the creature. It takes 15 rounds otherwise. Regenerate also heals Serious Damage within 15 rounds, and rids the subject of exhaustion and/or fatigue. It has no effect on nonliving creatures (including undead).

Limit: Must start with Character; 2 Freebies.. =========================================== Koutetsu no Karada (Steel Body) -[90TP] Rank: "D", "C", "B", "A", "S" Skill: Ninjutsu, Supplementary in Weapon Form. Effect: Determines the durability of the user's Steel Body. Special: "Hand Seals", supplementary in Weapon Form. Drawback: The more durable the body is, the less speed that the user has. The speed is of the user is reduced by one Difficulty Class from their current Difficulty Class for every Rank of the technique that the user has active. If at any point the user's Difficulty Class for movements reduces below "D" Rank, they will be considered to have zero movements per turn, unless they are performing the required handseals to obtain a lower Durability. Description: The Koutestu no Karada, or the Steel Body, is the understanding of just how powerful the user's steel has become. The Steel of the body is capable of resisting up to one strike of the same Rank as it before becoming injured. This technique, while not in weapon form, can be modified around, due to the fact that the lower the ranking, the faster that the user is capable of moving with less training. When the user has transformed into Weapon Form, they will automatically take the highest rank of this ability in order to state their durability. Limit: Must have Koutetsu Katansei of the same rank. =========================================== Karada Sumiyaka (Body Speed) -[90TP] Rank: "D", "C", "B", "A", "S" Skill: Supplementary Effect: Allows the user to learn to move at speeds equivalent to their Difficulty Class. Special: --- Drawback: Must learn the technique for every rank of Koutetsu no Karada or else the user will suffer from movement penalties. Description: This specialized form of training is given to those individuals within the Seitetsu Clan. Upon becoming an individual with the Steel Body technique, the user's own speeds will dramatically suffer. This training allows the user to act as if they were unaffected by the steel transitions within the body, allowing them to fight normally. Each Rank of this technique reduces the Difficulty Class Movement Penalty imposed by the Steel Body technique by one Difficulty Class, meaning that if the user only has the "D" Rank of this technique but switches to "B" Rank Steel Body, then they will have their movements reduced to the point that they would move as if they were two Difficulty Classes lower than they were, instead of three. If they have the "C" Rank Steel Body, then they will suffer only a singular class deduction with the "B" Rank Steel Body, and the "B" Rank of this technique would allow for no Difficulty Class Movement Penalty for the "B" Rank Steel Body. Limit: Must have the corresponding rank of Koutetsu no Karada. =========================================== Know Their Pain Rank: "B" Skill: NinJutsu Effect: Get an understanding of how much life a target has. Special: --- Drawback: This does not work on undead. Description: The user looks over another creature and can discern how close it is to releasing its soul. There are no hand movements, no actions, the user simply looks at the target and can simply know how much more life the target has before the soul finally leaves the body. This does not work on undead. This is normally used for NPC purposes. Opponent's cannot state how much life a PC character will have unless they are at the verge of death. Limit: Must be a Soulcaster. =========================================== Kikaichu no Jutsu (Destruction Bug Host Technique) -[10TP] Rank: D Skill: Ninjutsu Effect: Allows the user to control the kikaichu given to him by the Kikaichu Ishoku ritual. Special: N/A Drawback: The kikaichu feed from the shinobis chakra.

Limit: Must have Kikaichu Ishoku ===========================================

Well isn't Michiko quite the busy body. Poor Junko was being tugged by her top and, was generally trying to break free before something rips. She was having a hard time regaining her footing as they entered the tower. Eventually they reached their destination thankfully. Junko handed in the retrieved headband from their target and, let Michiko do the rest.

However there was still something interesting about this girl. She may be blood thirsty but, who cares? From what Junko knows she has a metal body and, is of the Hyuuga clan. Yet there was something she was curious about...even if it kills her. So Junko; in her mind skillfuly sneaked up close behind Michiko and, slipped her hands into the cloak. She was prepared to run if needed. Yet during which her curious hands would gently grasp and, feel around Michiko's chest. Even if metal. There has to be a nipple somewhere...

[KoKoKo]

I K I R Y O

Ikiryo had left the village prison and his mission and was making his way up towards the tower. He didn't know why he had been summoned and that annoyed him more than the summoning itself. He liked information, he liked gathering knowledge and the fact that he wasn't told why he was being summoned made him feel like information he should know was being kept from him.

With swift foot steps in his black leather shoes and his casually formal ensemble of white dress shirt with the sleeves folded up past his 6 elbows, a black waist coat and tie over the top of that with a brown leather belt that had his headband as the buckle. On his natural left arm he had one of the toujitakuma hand mouths, he wasn't born with it but through hist raining had unlocked it. His ability to instantly read books and retain the information just by holding them was still in tact along with his ability to spawn fire from his hands and feet, not to mention the swarm of kikaichu he had living within his body. Other wise though he only really had his steam punk style goggles with condition viewing with him as an item, he had left his head phones in his locker at home.

Upon arriving at the towers entrance he would make his way to the elevator to take him down into the sunken city and GRI below. Once on the correct level he made his way to the desk, no one stood in the que and even if they did he wouldn't care as he walked to the desk. My name is Ikiryo Valkyria. I was summoned by the council.

(OOC: For the purpose of the Kage title changing hands, I'm taking control of Godric for this thread. No danger or harm will be coming to him)

Kurai, my own personal assistant, came up to me with a message from the council. The hopes of leaving for an interrogation would have to wait. It appeared that the Council had made a decision regarding the leadership of the village.

"Sorry, Godric. But the Interrogation will have to wait. Aurora, if you wish to join in on it later on, when the time comes for it, then we will come to collect you at that time. But there is a more pressing matter at hand. Godric, would you mind heading up to the office? I will be there momentarily."

I said, leaving the vampire a little confused but agreeing anyway. He made his way to the elevator and left for the tower. Just then, I heard the name of the one that I was searching for.

"Ikiryo Valkyria.... My name is Sairo Zassou, Rokudaime Tsuchikage. I believe I spoke with you before during the attack on the tower. If you don't mind following me, I can take you to the council."

I stated to him. I remembered what I had spoken to him about as well. He had asked for what action should be taken during the midst of the attack. I had told him off and said that he should be able to think for himself. I had wanted to speak with him about it later, for he had done quite well indeed. But I hadn't expected this would be the reason I was speaking with him next.

Ikiryo turned recognising the voice that spoke to him but more so it was the face that caught him. He tried to hold his face flat but he couldn't help but let out a slightly disgruntled twitch before re aligning himself. He may not like this dick but he was still a dignified kage... power deserved respect.... even for a dick. When Sairo mentioned that he was to take Ikiryo to the council, three of Ikiryo's hands gestured for him to lead the way as in all honesty since the tower sunk he didn't really know where the meeting area was.

Once Sairo took the lead Ikiryo pulled his arms back and followed behind him as they made their way towards the elevator that he not only just came out of but noted Godric entering and making his way some where. Was he to meet with Godric along with the council too? What was going on? He hadn't fucked the village over nor blew any of it up.... for a while...

I made my way to the elevator where Ikiryo followed me. The slight disdain upon his face showed that he had not forgotten the words that I spoke to him in the tower before. But I had planned on correcting that.

When we had both entered the elevator, I pressed the key to move toward the Tsuchikage's office. It was where they had intended on meeting. By now, they were already speaking to Godric about why he was no longer Tsuchikage. Murdering all those children was enough to remove that title, even if they couldn't help but be grateful that he saved their lives.

"I'm grateful that I get the chance to speak with you once more. I had not had the chance to commend you on your actions during the protest on the tower. I was glad to see that my words had not hindered you and allowed you to push forward and do what was necessary. You see... I merely wanted to test you on your abilities to think for yourself and do what was necessary just by the powers of observation and logical thinking. You saved the lives of many individuals by doing just that. Many who are told what I told you would start doubting themselves even more. You are different. You can think for yourself, adapt to your situation, and take charge when necessary. You should be quite proud of what you had done in the tower, for I know I was."

I said, hoping my words had changed his feelings toward me. After all, he had done quite well indeed. But after I had said my piece, the elevator door opened, leading toward the hallway that led to the office.

Within the office, however, the Council were talking to Godric and telling him that his actions were both unacceptable and necessary. They stated that the village would not rally behind someone who would sacrifice innocent children's lives so easily yet could not charge him with their deaths as it also aided in the council remaining alive. As such, they told him that his title was to be removed. He would return to being a Chuunin in the village with no further repercussion to be made. Thankfully things went smoothly from there, Godric was led out a different way, leaving the office free for the council, myself, and the new head of the village.
