The troubling political drama had been wearing the young boy down a little too much, it was as if there were just a bunch of powerful men seeking more power for themselves. His thoughts were dark and he quickly tried to change the pattern as he walked through the streets of amegakure. Were there anyone he still could trust? or should he really stay in the hopeless hell it had become? There were none that could be saved, and why bother? nobody liked him anyways. But as he was about to allow a single tear run down from his eye, a small push reminded him that he did indeed have a friend, the huge beast following him, Zetsubô. He smiled a little back to the beast and nodded.

Yes, I like you too.

He reached into his inner mind and allowed the aura of his friend light up his darkness. It was always soothing for him to do that, to touch the presence of his friends soul. It was warm and comforting. The surroundings did however remind him that they were not alone. People were walking on streets less than 10 meters away and a few of the houses contained a few auras in them as well. Emi opened his eyes to make sure that he didn´t walk into anything without an aura. It was fairly common for him to do, but after a few meters he stopped. His eyes searched around in the area as his mind tried to reconnect to the feeling he had just have. Wasn´t he capable of change his concentration without loosing his ability to detect charkras anymore?

It wasn´t the first time he had lost an ability, but the fact that he suddenly felt weaker made the small boy curse and clench his fist. "I can´t allow myself to loose my divine powers" He thought and closed his eyes to regain his lost focus. What made him even more furious was that he didn´t even recover the concentration immediately, it was if he hadn´t even been looking at the auras before. His bad temper made his range quite significantly lower and the auras blurry so Emi walked away a little and took a few deep breaths to calm down. His mood had always had a large impact on his ability to handle chakra and since he used his anger while fighting in melee, he wondered if he ever would be able to combine those to ways of fighting.

Maybe I should use this opportunity to learn?

But he quickly abandoned that thought as he was determined to re-learn himself how to actually have his eyes open while using his inner eye. At first he opened his eyes while maintaining the normal qualities of his inner eye, but as he noticed that it didn´t work, he began to lower his range until he finally only felt his own and Zetsubôs auras. Emi opened up his eyes extremely slowly, but despite his careful attempts it took him almost 8 tries until he had managed to find the proper focus to have half his eyes open. His normal eyes did however not have the normal color. The grey tone made everything look quite a lot more depressing, but it also made him realize how dark and boring the area normally was in Amegakure. A sigh escaped him as his depressing thoughts returned to him and his inner eye almost closed yet again. The thoughts of actually leaving the village made themselves recognized before he walked up and hugged his friend and closed his eyes again.

The grass really is greener on the other side Zetsubô?

Tears ran down his cheeks, joining up with the rain. The beating of the beasts heart did however sooth his racing emotions slightly. So Emi opened up his eyes completely while having his complete focus on the beast in front of him. The aura was maintained and present in Emi´s mind. It was just as clear as it normally had been, but his vision was still grey. "That have never happened before". Curious on if that was just a side-effect of him loosing the power and had to re-learn it or if he actually was getting weaker, Emi continued on to practice opening his eyes while focused on the beast. It did however not improve itself, and when he suddenly was disturbed by a few steps closing in on them, he lost his concentration and looked in the general direction of the steps. As it was hard to see more than a few meters ahead of himself, he closed his eyes and extended his inner vision field, to see if there were someone that he recognized.

Who´s there?

He asked when the individual got close enough for a conversation to start.

Pattern Perception
Rank: "C"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: Jutsu allows the user to perform Pattern Perceptions.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Patterns, like Figments and Glamours, produce sensory impressions, and everyone within range perceives the same thing. Patterns contain an additional, mind-affecting element, and they can cause real, physiological effects. All patterns are Mind-Affecting Jutsus. While everyone sees a color spray, only some of those within the cone actually deal with its effects. Note: that a particular sense is required for patterns to have an effect. Sightless creatures ignore Color Spray, for instance. If you want multiple subjects to be affected by what they see, and you do not care if everyone perceives it happening, pattern might be a good choice.

Boring, boring, boring. I can't believe just how bored I am. There's nothing going on, in a city that on the verge of civil war there's nothing to do. How annoying. I walked through the streets of the village waiting for something to happen but after hours of it, nothing. No fights to get involved in, no one rich enough to be worth robbing, How troublesome. In the end I decided to simply annoy the people around me with some genjutsu, that'd be fun. I focused my chakra and threw it out before me, no hand seals or anything as I wasn't going to cast a jutsu against sheep. My aim was simple, to affect the sight of those around me to have them distracted from their tasks. First I start with the easy targets, the children. Many would think attacking them was heartless though I had no heart to begin with, as such there's absolutely no problem. I spot one clinging to his mothers leg crying in a fit. Seem's he wants something his mother is saying no to. Well now, can't have that now.

My chakra floated over to him and invaded his mind. IN an instant the world the kid was seeing was replaced by one of flashing lights that seemingly went everywhere in a series of random colours. It confused him and he started to cry, oh what a child. His mother tried to console him as she noticed the shift in attitude but there was nothing she could do. He was merely a target of my ridicule. Next I see a group of performers, singing a song to the public. Oh how fun it's going to be to destroy their performance. Again my chakra dances from my person and inflects them with visions of flashing colour. Their singing stops and they appear confused. Success. THeir confusion confuses the public in turn resulting in a poor performance. How terrible. I immediately get bored with these childish pursuits and decide to try something bigger but my word, is that a familiar voice I hear? I wander to where I heard it to see if it truly is and I am questioned as to my identity.

"Careful there Emi, you'll hurt my feelings if you don't recall my name." I smile a sharply toothed grin as I present myself before him. He would no doubt notice the fact I'm shirtless in this rain, presenting my muscled, toned body, tattoo, and scales. He'd also notice my lack of shoes and the sword upon my back, actually the only clothing I had on were the pants I wore which were long, black and covered in a green triangular pattern rather sparsely. With a flick of my forked tongue I continue to speak. "You doing anything interesting or am I back to being bored out of my skull?"

The first thing he noticed of the incoming individual was that Zetsubô appeared to be familiar with him, in a positive way. When the voice echoed in the narrow alley, he understood why.

Sorry Glaurung, my senses are blurry for some reasons.

It was no joke, as he opened up his eyes to see his fairly new friend coming towards him, his vision was still all grey despite that he didn´t focus on the surrounding chakras. And the fact that he barely saw any details made him a little worried, had he done something wrong with his chakra? Emi blinked a few times as an attempt to bring it back to normal, but in vain. The blur that was his new current world was barely enough for him to make out the length of Glaurung, but at least he knew about how far away the boy was. Since the blinding made him feel way too left out in the open, he opened up his inner eye again to at least be able to see the life signs around him. While he did he grasped Zetsubô to allow the beast to act as his eyes.

Well, how about we continue were we left off? hunting the drug dealers?

Emi didn´t really feel like he was fully prepared for such a business, but his frustration was something he knew he would sooth if he was able to sate his bloodlust, and whom was better to cooperate with than Glaurung for such a task? The aura in front of him was in fact the friend he thought it was, but it appeared as something was slightly different, a few patches of color had shifted. Despite his almost closed eyes, Emi took a few confident steps towards Glaurung and focused on the small streak of grey he got through the small hole. As it was not enough, he pushed his ability to maintain his concentration while opening his more. When they were almost half way up his inner eye began to haze out, which made the boy stop and accept his new limit. "Way better than before at least". He thought and analyzed the contours of the boy in front of him.

The bull gang was smuggling by boat if I remember correctly?

He was a little hesitant about that as so much had happened in between, but as he thought of it, it felt familiar. Then he realized something, they had released one of the prisoners, which might´ve told the bull gang about what had happened, so what if they were being followed? Emi´s inner eye moved around in the area in search for any possible hostile aura. There were several that were close enough to be from a spy, but most of them appeared to be behind walls or together with others. He had to use his blurry eyes to actually distinguish if there were any possibility of a threat from either of the auras. He did however need to move around to get close enough to actually see the areas in which the auras was and most of the times the persons moved away and headed towards the market or acted normal. But when Emi walked towards a crossing of alleys, two auras moved as one towards a new spot not that far away.

I think we´re actually followed by the bull gang.

He stopped in his tracks and turned around to Glaurung as he whispered the warning.

They´re 14 meters to the northwest alley from here. I doubt they have you in sight, so use that opportunity to get them. And remember, this is no official mission anymore, so if we just avoid collateral damage.... we may have fun.

His eyes shone bright from the navy blue color that his divine form had granted him as the vicious smile appeared. Emi´s posture relaxed for a brief moment as a chill went through his body and cleared his mind. The auras in the surroundings became stronger and the details that had been too vague for him to see had come back. "Have I been restraining myself too much lately?" It made sense to him since a god shouldn´t put limits on themselves, even though he had no idea of how that would work. The fingers cracked as he clenched his right fist and took a few deep breaths. Maybe it was perfect opportunity for him to actually push his body and abilities to new heights again. Emi tried to open up his eyes fully again. The grey scale remained but so did his ability to see auras. The smile got even wider. "A god of slaughter and deceit? maybe so" He looked after his friend, trying to push his eyes to detect details.

Such insects these people were. I decided to put the fright in them and built up my chakra within myself as Emi explained himself to me. My chakra was then released from my body and invaded the minds of the men and women of the Rain village. Again I start with children, such innocent minds, so easily destroyed. I'm not using anything powerful, no need to completely ruin them for life. Instead I'm merely afflicting them to believe that the other children are not human and instead vampires. I cloud their minds with my chakra and give them the opinion that for a brief moment the other kids around them have long fangs and a vile look upon their faces. The children begin to looked confused and they freeze up. The next instance has a few children begin to cry in fear and their parents come to consul them. How lovely. I do enjoy a good parent, it makes it all the better to destroy their minds.

Emi is speaking to me again, bringing up the drug dealers we had captured in the past however the thought had slipped my mind. "Did we do that? I don't remember..." I set my right thumb to my chin as I ponder the instance further. "I recall eating someone with you a while back. That's about it..." I trail off but in the end I simply go with what Emi has inferred. I chose not to remember the worthlessness of humans, it has a habit of becoming an annoyance to me so i don't bother remembering. Humans were so weak willed. I find another one, a man about twelve to fifteen meters away from me to the northwest. He's with someone else so I decide to take advantage of the fact. I build my chakra again and push it out toward him. It sinks into his mind and begins to effect his perception to my will. As per my decision I have him look at his friend for a moment however for the briefest of instances it's not his friend.

To him it would appear as though a stranger had suddenly appeared in his place as if his friend was actually an impostor. My genjutsu however was not strong though so it didn't have any lasting effect but the human mind was an easily tricked thing. Again I see the look of confusion take hold of him as he begins to question the identity of his friend. Something seems rather odd to me however as it appears as though an argument has broken out between the two and a knife is drawn. This confuses me a little though Emi speaks yet again and informs me that these men are actually gangsters sent here to tail us. No wonder they're on edge. An argument was inevitable, they were trialing ninja so the man I inflicted with my genjutsu probably thought his partner had been replaced without his knowledge so he could find his way back to the gangsters hide out. How interesting.

I take my sword in hand and begin to walk as per Emi's suggestions. "I got it but do you really want to take this mission now? You can't exactly see." It was a valid point, generally I didn't care at all if Emi died because of his own stubborn pride but still, it was probably going to be a hassle if he did. Paperwork and all. Well I suppose if he died I could just not do the paperwork. Easy enough. With a mighty leap I launch myself from the ground and bound from the walls of the surrounding building to get to the roof, above the gang members. Leaping down upon the still arguing men I land upon the first with my full body weight knocking him out. With my sword in hand, and still standing upon the unconscious guy, I set my blade to the others throat and tell him not to move else I'd slit it open. He looks scared, he should be. I am not a nice man.

My captive captured, I now wait for Emi to make his way over. As I do I can't help but notice something. A flower has caught my eye, its purple in colour and rather appealing to behold. I shift my head a little to inspect it further. It appears to be accompanied by a yellow flower as well. I know this flower, I try to remember it for a moment but the guy I'm holding hostage looks as though he's going to make a break for it. "Don't even try"[/font] I warn him. I have no qualms about cutting his throat but now, about that flower...

The shadow which was his friend moved as swiftly as expected by a shinobi but it just made it harder for him to follow him with his eyes. But since he was capable of seeing the auras again, he had his eyes follow that direction to make it easier for himself. When Glaurung encountered the men with some kind of jutsu, Emi began to think that maybe chakra would be the reason behind his condition. He thought back on the past few minutes and realized that he had been allowing chakra to flow to his inner eye the whole time his vision had been hazy. So he attempted to decrease the chakra flow down to more normal circulation levels. At first it didn´t do anything but stop his inner vision until it finally ended. But when he no longer could see any auras, his normal vision began to return until he even was able to see colors again.

Don´t you worry about me, my sight is returning.

He let go of Zetsubô as to indicate that he was able to take care of his own balance again before he walked over to the captured spies.

If you are from the bull gang, you know what we did with your comrades, so I trust that you´ll be willing to avoid that fate. When is the next delivery of goods to Amegakure?

Emi pulled out his sword and placed it upon one of the men´s throat, clear that it was a threat while he allowed his chakra to flow free again. That was the best way for him to detect if either one of them were lying. He did however not want to close his eyes as that would make it less threatening, so he kept his eyes open regarding the fact that they would become blurry. But as the lights appeared on his inner eye, nothing else but the greyscale happened to the normal vision. Even though he become quite surprised by it, he didn´t allow his facial expression to change while he closely observed the spies aura. When he had familiarized himself with them, he knew that he would be able to see any change happening due to untruths.

Emi assured me that his sight was returning which was nice I suppose though I had other things to think of at the moment. There were a few men that needed interrogating and interrogate them I shall, well that was the plan anyway. Emi took it upon himself to conduct the interrogation and seeing as though I was already using genjutsu anyways I decided to help him out just a little bit. As Emi had questioned the man affiliation with the Bull Gang I began to build my chakra for a rather unusual style of genjutsu. Generally I was all about merely scaring and fascinating people with my illusions though now I was going to attempt to enchant the young man. I used no hand signs so it would appear as though, to all others, that I was merely holding my sword as Emi asked the questions though in turn my chakra was already begining to seep into the still conscious mans mind and beginning to interfere with his perceptions on just what was happening though it was still somehwat small scale, I wasn't yet confident enough with my abilities just yet.

My chakra danced with his mind at my will and began to affect his thinking. This attempt of mine was to inspire a sense of dread within himself. This sense of dread melded with Emi's words rather nicely though as each word slipped from Emi's lips the sense of fear I was expecting was not present and I was instead privy to a sense of sorrow in its place. This was unusual. My jutsu had usually worked to inspire horror within the minds of my victims though I did not recoil from this development, instead I rolled with it and by the rime Emi had finished speaking I could tell that this grunt was on the verge of tears. To me, it appeared as though he had come to the conclusion that his life was truly at an end, which for a human was indeed very curious. Humans tend to, even in the face of death, cling to rays of hope and fortitude in an effort to deny the truth. Such a thought then enticed myself to provide some lip service with this in mind and I began to weave together a tangled web of lies that would surely provide some sort of entertainment.

I produced more chakra within myself before speaking, I felt it swirl within me almost as I allowed it to drift out into the mans head. This time, I was instilling a sense of hope within him. I would make it appear as though, with the words I were next to speak, I would offer him a way out of his predicament, a means of continued living. "Tell us just where the big boss guys are and we'll let you go home." I smiled as I spoke to add to the illusion and he in turn smiled for but a brief moment before he came to a realisation himself. [b}"I-I don't know where they are"[/b] I pushed more chakra into his mind as I scowled in anger. To him I would appear much more terrifying than I was previously, despite having been holding a sword to his throat. I could see on his face that he was truly frightened now, the horror was something to marvel yet through this horror he managed to stammer an interesting sentence. "B-but I know someone who does!" More chakra escaped me as I smiled nicely toward him. Now that was more like it, I could use this. My chakra again left my body and invaded his mind for an illusion of hope at my whim. I had no intention of actually letting this guy, or the man under my feet, go but he didn't need to know that.

(OOC: Don´t worry, you train as much as you like and with the flower, I think it´s because we´re in a city while that needs to be in a forest to be searched for.)



The fear in the helpless man´s eyes were so satisfying for the young boy and he couldn´t remove his focus from them. At first it was just a strange way of intimidating the spy, but as a chill went through him as a small thin streak of blood ran down the man´s throat his inner beast emerged. Without noticing it, Emi opened up his mouth, revealing his deadly fangs, dripping of acid which his tongue eagerly was caressing. But as his body was about to launch forward and bite into the man Emi stopped himself and shrugged the feeling off. he did however not want to calm down the spies, so he just smiled back to him and sheathed the blade. Glaurung had control over the situation anyways, so Emi took a few steps back and sat down to observe. Even though it wasn´t obvious to the normal eye, Emi saw with his mind´s eye that Glaurung was using chakra to manipulate the man.

How do you do that?

Even though it was an easy question that could be aimed at a bunch of things, he said it as if he knew something normal people wouldn´t. He still hadn´t taken his eyes of the first one. What was he thinking? Why had he of all the thugs been chosen? There were no special features about the man that were appealing for a spy, but what if that was it? He needed to be one with the crowd. Emi clicked some with his claws before he began to file them against the road beneath him.

So this is what you´ve been doing the past weeks huh?

Despite the fact that he rarely was interested in other people, he could feel how the life of that other humanoid creature intrigued him. But they were friends after all, right? Emi was however not allowed to think to much about that before the spy revealed their way in, he knew a guy they could use. Emi gave the man a malicious smile and nodded.

Well done Glaurung.

The praise wouldn´t be easily heard as Emi didn´t wait for any reaction before he dashed away from his spot on the road to the second spy and grabbed his face with his right hand, pulling him away from underneath Glaurungs feet and out a few meters on the street. The claws dug into the mans face for a brief moment before Emi forced it into the ground. It wasn´t enough to kill the man, but it left the man unconscious on the road, coloring the puddles red with blood with faint uneven breaths. The young boy stood up from next to the body and looked straight into the talking spy´s face.

Lead the way.

Emi relaxed and licked off the blood from his claws.

Now EMi was really getting into the mood. Bearing his fangs upon the terrified man with such a vicious scowl, almost snarling. I cast more chakra into the already weakened mans mind and begin to influence his perceptions yet again. My fellow Ame shinobi was already quite scary but to this man now, with the addition of my genjutsu powers, was now seeing something even more terrifying. Upon my mere command this man at my sword was now seeing a litteral monster, a demon, standing right before him. My genjutsu washed over his mind and added to the intimidation factor though I was not merely content with that. Previously I had managed to use my jutsu to make myself seem somehwat compassionate though with the way in which this man was reacting, if I were to do the same I imagine I would look like quite the saviour and so I cast more genjutsu and build my chakra and throw it out to have it wash the mans mind further and further creating a manipulable puppet.

Intrigued, as I acted, Emi questioned me on just how I was able to perform such magic and wizardry which was, at least to me, quite odd. It was merely genjutsu, I wasn't even using strong genjutsu. It was just basic mind control, if that even. This man was such an easy mark it was unfair, I wasn't even using much chakra. "Just a little mind control Emi, nothing big." During this time I was washing the mans mind with my chakra again to make myself seem like his only way out. As I suspected, this was the right thing to do as he began to look at me with such pleading eyes I almost felt bad about what we were going to do. I nod my agreement when asked by Emi if this is what I've been doing to keep my interest since I last saw him and for the most part, it was true. I begin to weave my web of illusions further, trying to get him to let go of his reservations, however before I can do that Emi launches himself at the man beneath my feet and throws him about.

I have barely enough time to move out of the way but it seemed to work really well. The man we're interrogating is completely wide open now, hell he pissed himself. My illusions were more effective than ever at this point despite the fact they weren't even strong. Further and further into the illusion he went, Emi to him seemed as if he were Satan himself sprung up from hell to drag him down, while as in comparison probably seemed like Jesus offering him a line to safety but I was far from a saviour, I was the one pulling the string. I use this opportunity and cast more genjutsu into the mans mind. I create sounds now, gentle whispers. These whispers say to the man things like 'It's time' and 'this is how I die.' I leave him to rot in this head space for a moment before further manipulating his mind. I have the whispers say one final message, 'but what about...' An image then presents itself to the man, my image. I lead him to believe that his only means of survival was pleasing me. Anything less was sure death.

"W-w-w-wait Please! D-don't d-do a-a-anything rash! Look I'll take you there j-just f-follow me!" The man begins to run as if for his life, He runs as fast as his feet can carry him and I'm hot on his tail tracing after him though I'm concealed and at a distance. It looks as though he's heading down toward the red light district of the town, not that I would know of course. I watch carefully as to his location, though admittedly my eyes catch sight of various hookers on the side of the streets, and in the end I sense that his end location was a strip club in the heart of the district called Marukyu. It's here that I draw the line, I don't want to get any closer so I snatch the man away from the streets, bounding up behind him and covering his mouth. I head to a position upon the roof top of a nearby building and slice his throat to keep him quiet. As he bleeds out on the floor I speak again to Emi, informing him of my deductions.

"Seems to me as though he was heading toward that club over there, the one with the pink lights outside. My suggestion, sit back and watch the place until someone important comes out. That way we can surmise the security and follow him to the docks without being discovered. It's time consuming but the chances of getting caught are less than if we go in there."

[~Emi~]

Emi quite enjoyed the eyes of the man that screamed of fear for the boy, what if he would actually be able to simulate that effect upon other individuals? It would most likely lessen the sensation about it, but it certainly would be entertaining. But as Glaurung kept on the play, the man was made running away towards his source. Emi returned to a stoneface and rose up slowly from the ground. Since the man would be scared beyond belief there were no real reason to worry that he would betray them, so Emi walked after the man while keeping track of him with his inner eye. When they entered the shady district, there were a lot of eyes looking their way. it wouldn´t be good if the wrong people learned that they were in touch with the spy despite that it might look like we were hunting him. Emi was however in a fairly confident mood, so as they passed the men and women, he gave them an evil gaze. It was so they would realize what kind of threat it would be to actually go and tell on them.

A few of the people that looked on them completely froze and began to hyperventilate as they saw him walk by, but some just ran away. What he noticed appeared to have a great effect on the people was the unconscious man that he was pulling behind himself. It wasn´t discrete, but it made a great impression. His confidence grew from each step and as he was capable of shatter a small crowd of hobos, he smiled. "Maybe I should announce my name to them?" He only thought about it for a brief moment until he came to the conclusion that it would only lessen the successrate of their mission. So he kept quiet, but he continued to act as if he was owning the district.

When they finally ended up on a roof nearby a nightclub, Glaurung suggested that they would stay there until anyone interesting came out, Emi sighed and leaned back against the roof. He really didn´t mind, he was feeling good again and enjoyed the nervous shaking of the spy while he bleed to death.

Sure, We could´ve sneaked in, but as we don´t have any time limit on this, I guess we can relax a little. There´s currently....

His gaze zoomed off a little as he counted the auras inside.

42 people in there right now.

When it had been decided that they were to stay there for a while, Emi leaned over the edge and waved away his friend. The huge beast snorted before running away towards their house.

Yawning I resigned myself to a long wait though it wasn't as though I was going to remain seated and bored. No, no, no. I'd of course do my job but I would entertain myself as I waited. Peering over the ledge of the roof I set my eyes upon a street walker looking for a john or two. A smile places itself upon my lips. I'm gonna have some fun. I build some chakra up within myself, nothing big or fancy, I'm going to be spending a lot of time up here on the roof so I'm going to take things nice and slow with this girl. I project my chakra over to her and allow it to sink into her mind. My intention was not to make her feel anything, no, no, no. I instead influenced her mind to make it seem as though someone has whispered something unintelligible in her ear yet there was no one around. I watched as she looked around, a little unnerved but still confident. So far she was doing everything I had hoped she would do, things were going exactly to my plan. Now it was time to start messing with her sanity.

I began to lean upon the ledge as I built my chakra, out of sight from her but I could very much see her. My chakra again began to drift over toward the broad and this time I my intentions were of a more intrusive nature. By by whim she would feel as though a set of eyes were upon her, which they were I suppose but now she was aware of it. I took my time building up a sense of paranoia within her. I almost laughed each time I seen her eyes dart about, looking hastily over her shoulder, spinning around in her anxiety. I was a cruel person now wasn't I? I began to inflict another sense upon her as well, the sense of killing intent. I pushed out more chakra and had it invade her mind further. This time I forced the sensation of being hunted upon her. She would feel as though someone was about to stab her in the back, as if there was a murder on the loose just ready to pounce. Her actions became more erratic, it was hilarious to me to watch her so scared. It was a different kind of fear than the man had displayed, it was fear of the unknown.

I had the idea as I saw some men approach. It seemed to me as though they were approaching her with the intention of spending some time with her so I decided to ruin their day. The whore was already on edge, now I'd tip her over. More chakra left my body and invaded her mind. I immediately saw the results of my jutsu appear on her face, even from my distance. Her whole display of body language shifted as my illusions brought upon her the feeling of rage. She became unruly, furious. The next scene was going to be good. I watched on as the men who had approached her began to speak. She set herself upon them in an instant. Attacking them with her nails and teeth, I watched as she slapped and bit them drawing blood. She was uncontrollable and even though they tried to push her away she was set upon them. I was surprised with what she did next however as she pulled a knife out. The men ran off into the distance which is where I decided to end my fun by relieving her of my genjutsu and watching as she regained her senses. She was dumbfounded and ran away, probably home.

My fun had it was just good luck that now that I was finished an interesting looking man managed to stumble his way out the front of the club. He seemed important as he was escorted by a woman interlocked in his arm and four body guard looking men. "Seem's like the guy we're looking for" I stated as I returned to my feet. They began to move toward the east of town though I suspected that they were going for quite a little walk. If this was that Nero guy that we were after, it would suffice to say that he was probably heading toward the docks in Yokoburi which of course meant he was on his way to a meet up if he did in fact leave town. I hoped my luck was up to par today, I seriously did not want to be stuck tailing this guy for a few days, and I really did not want to be tailing him for a few weeks. "Probably best to keep our distance as well. Two of those guards, they're sensor type shinobi but they don't appear to be that strong so they're probably not the greatest at it. You're a sensor right? You tail them for us." I was forcing Emi to take the lead for now but the kid needed to pull his weight anyway. I was confident that either he or at least his mutt was capable of tracking the group so this was the best course of action.

The guy we were following seemed to think himself some kind of pimp. He wore a button up suit, all white with brown leather shoes that looked expensive. The woman on his arm, well let's just say she looked looser than the street walker I was messing with. She had on a pink dress that left nothing to the imagination. Tits the size of watermelons just hanging out, threatening to showcase a nipple if she took a wrong step. The guards themselves were seemingly respectable. Three men and a woman that seemed to think she was a man. They all wore matching attire, black pants, black shoes, and a black trench coat over a purple button up shirt and red tie. No one in the group seemed overly strong. There were two taijutsu users in the group of body guards, the woman one of them. They seemed to be able to throw a decent punch. They had a few knives on them as well I couldn't help but notice, tucked away in their trench coats. The other two were sensor type shinobi with ninjutsu set to back it up. I wasn't entirely sure what kind of jutsu thhey used precisely however one of the men had burns on his hands so there was a fire user amongst the group. The pimp, I assumed he was Nero, seemed to be a fighter as well. He seemed to be able to throw the heaviest punch.

The woman was of course useless. Nothing of note. As we moved I informed Emi of these attributes for the in case he wasn't able to figure it out himself. No reason to hide it and talking made the trip seem shorter.

The wait was rather boring as he was just studying the auras within the building. But as a group exited the club and walked away, Glaurung claimed it was the group they were after. Emi stretched his arms out a little before rising up from his spot. Most of his limbs had gone numb from the bad posture he had during the wait, so he had to shake them a little before the blood returned. It wasn´t hard for him to memorize the groups chakra types, so after just a brief moment he turned his attention down to the club again.

Let´s just check if there´s no more members still in there.

Emi picked up the unconscious spy and kept him on his shoulder as he jumped down on the ground and walked towards the club. Most of the people in the area ran away at the sight of him while the guards stayed put. The sweat running down their foreheads did however reveal that they either were afraid or at least huge respect for the small demon form he had. Without changing his facial expression at all, he stopped a few meters from the guards, waited a few seconds before he gave them his question.

Does that group have any more people inside the club?

He allowed the words cling out before he accepted any answer to come. The two guards looked on each other as they hesitated. But when the boy took a step forward, the left one raised his hands as to stop Emi and panicked.

No, no , no, that´s all of them, please don´t do anything you´ll regret.

It didn´t take much experience with lies to see that the guard was telling the truth, so Emi sighed a little and nodded to the men to show that he was satisfied with the reply. He then turned around and began to follow the group of smugglers. "These filth really should be vanquished, doesn´t even belong in a civilized village". It was obvious why the criminals and hobos had become so many more the past years, but he didn´t understand why the kage just didn´t order a massive cleanse of those parts.

Sensors you say? well, we can stay about 1 000 feet away without loosing them, I doubt they will detect us from that distance.

Their walk out form the village wouldn´t be in any intense speed, but as the smugglers went into a wagon just a few hundred meters outside the gates, they were capable of move through the lands fairly quickly. As they took a few breaks in their travels approximately at the same time as the smugglers did, Emi broke down the spy piece by piece and shared the meat between them.

I would like us to scout the area to see if all of the involved are there before we head in. I trust you have some kind of clone jutsu? If so we can have a clone each head on every single opponent.

The group walked out of the Village and into the neighbouring town, heading toward the docks. Seemed like this was the place to be or at least I supposed it was as he allowed Emi to leda the way. "I don't have any clone jutsu. There's only one of me, only ever will be. You're free to scout ahead if you want though." God I was great. Yawning I merely watched Emi as he created a clone and sent it on ahead. As I waited for something to happen I recalled my time in the country side of Bear Country in my younger days, younger, I'm not old! Back then I terrorised the local farmers by spewing fire over their crops. I remember it well. I started with this large farm out in the middle of nowhere, it was large. Seemed to be growing wheat or something. Taking on the form of a crawling lizard I began to approach whilst building my chakra within myself. I began to take in deep breathes as I got closer and closer to the farm. Before long I was noticed by a little girl, probably the farmers daughter, who screamed and ran to the adults.

As soon as I was noticed I formed hand signs and focused the chakra within me into my lungs and throat. It felt marvelous to build the fire within me. It seemed so natural. My fingers laced with the Tiger seal, holding it tightly, I began to spew forth a mighty stream of red and orange flames and continued to do so until I ran out of breath. With this one action the wheat of the farm was quickly caught alight and began to spread. The heat radiated to my form and heated by cold blooded body. Such energy, I truly flt most alive when destroying things. I continued to form hand signs and build up more chakra again filtering it all within my lungs and throat. The fire style chakra built within me and I felt a great power within me as I held the Tiger seal. Taking in another deep breath I moved my hand to cup my mouth and I began to spew more flames, catching the whole field alight now. It burned and burned, spreading further and further until it mvoed beyond the confines of the field and into the neighbouring forest.

I was not yet finished however as now I followed the girl The adults were in the house were they not? It was to hot to see with my thermal imaging so I could only assume. Crawling along the ground with my tail hanging behind me I began to build my chakra again and swirled it within my stomach. Reaching the house I stood on my hind legs and formed hand signs, focusing the energy I had built. I held the Tiger seal a third time and focused the chakra into my lungs and throat before I took a deep breath and spwed forth another stream of intense orange and red flames that quickly engulfed the house with their size. The wood of the house was much harder to catch alight. Unlike the kindling that was the wheat grass, the timber logs of the farmers house was thick and painted. It took almost all of my breath to catch the house alight and even then I was forced to breath a fourth round of flames for it to properly catch and I watched as it began to be reduced to cinders yet I could see no humans present.

Looking to my left I saw them flea into the barn, a man, woman, and two children, a boy and girl. On all fours I crawled over to them, thumping my long tail as I did so. So this is where they were hiding, eh? That was fine by me. I stood on hind legs again and formed more hand signs. Pounding down to all fours I exhaled a giant ball of flame, much larger than I had before and began to torch the barn with all the fire I could produce. Just like the house the barn was harder to catch alight but still this fire was more intense than the previous flames and it engulfed the wooden structure without the need for a second breath. My fireball was large enough to cover an entire wall of the barn and spread even above the roof. With this single breath of mine the wall itself was broken down partially and I was privy to a view inside. Looking around as my fire raged I saw no humans inside and an open door at the back. Such troublesome humans. I would burn them to cinders yet.

That was an interesting day, and only the start of a small invasion. This memory of mine trigger a thought of preparation. As we neared closer and closer to the docks I thought that I should probably get myself ready for battle and so I formed a series of hand signs. The first was to grow myself a large tail, one that fit my appearance better than my lack of a tail. It sprouted from my lower back, a long and scaly green lizards tail, and landed upon the ground with a thud as I let it flop to the earth. Next up was my hands. It was time to make them the claws they were destined to be. A second set of hand signs and boom, my finger grew long and sharp as the green scales intensified. Under my nails were sacks of bacteria, poison. Any I scratched with these claws would be inflicted with a horrible poison however there was one more thing I needed to do. A final string of hand signs and I quickly faded from vision and camouflaged with the surroundings.

"I'm ready to move in when you are" The element of surprise on my side I'm sure, a distance away the group of gangsters would meet up with their supplier. From aboard a docked boat, about thirty feet in length and motorised, two individuals departed and approached Nero, a man and a woman. The woman had light brown hair, it was almost blonde, that drooped down to the length of her chest and her eyes were an unusual shade of crimson. She wore a small brown cloak with a hood on top of a white button-up shirt and mini-skirt. The man had shorter and darker hair, black in colour as were his eyes. Dressed in all black, a black coat and trouser over a white t-shirt, his whole demenour was the complete opposite of the girl. He seemed deranged, dangerous. The girls body language was cheerful and carefree. These two were obviously polar opposite's. They were the right people however as in the boat were a variety of both drugs and weapons that had been smuggled into the country.

They two groups began to converse however it was at a distance where spoken words could not be heard by either Glaurung or Emi and his pet. Having given the reigns of control to the Hoshigaki however, it was up too him what to do next.

When they almost had reached the end destination the terrain suddenly became a lot rougher and the road almost vanished completely. The ninjas was however not as affected by the change of terrain as their carried began to jump and crash into things on both sides of the road. Emi used the opportunity to move around the group a few times to see if he could find any other individuals around. The branches in the trees grew tighter and tighter the further away from the village they had gotten, so as he moved around, he had to make sure to avoid the thickest branches as to not make any extra sound to reveal his location or to be slowed down. The small wounds he sustained as he jumped through the branches were nothing to bother himself about, but as his clothes got stuck fairly often he would need to learn any way to avoid that.

Emi slowed down his pace when he saw an extra dense part. His eyes moved around and intensely searched for a easier path through the branches, but in vain, there were none. So before he reached it, he stopped and focused on a specific part just a few meters ahead of himself. That time it was not so much to see it as easier, but to make it just that by jumping through it in the correct way. It would require for him to calculate the strength of his jump while he made a pirouette in the air. So to make sure that he would have it nailed before entering the thick part with branches he trained by making a few jumps on his way to the spot. When he had reached it, he still didn´t think he had perfected the jump, so he stopped before he accidentally made any noise that would reveal him to the bull group.

"I think the timing is the most important thing, the other things can be adjusted while moving." So he looked on the ground for the perfect spot that he would need to begin his jump and how many steps he would need to take for him to have proper speed. What would be important though was that he got the proper foot at the stomp off, so he calculated carefully and looked on which branch he would need to come running from to get as straight path as possible. When he had found it and prepared himself with all the calculations and a couple of extra jumps, he headed back to the start and placed his right foot ahead of the other. Emi took a few deep breaths and moved a little with his upper body to warm it up for the spin he would need to make, he then began to run. Instead of looking at the ground to see if he actually did hit the spots he had planned on hitting with the feet he had his eyes focused on the branches ahead.

When he finally felt that he was close enough with the proper foot landing on the branch beneath him, he jumped up and performed the planned spin. It didn´t go perfectly and a few of them scratched his robe. But he was through the worst part without basically any sound, which was better than expected. So he looked back to gloat a little before he headed closer to the road again. The smugglers had come to a stop and were meeting up with two women. Unsure if it was all, he moved around a little in the terrain to cover the entire area with his minds eye, but there were no one else. He smiled.

Those women are our targets, go around in the woods and arrive from the north, I will take care of the other five before we engage the girls.

Emi performed a few quick handseals and had the mud under his tree grow into 4 exact copies of himself.

Make your first attack count, it will be unnoticed by them if you're quiet enough.

He jumped down on the ground and sank into it along with his four clones and immediately headed towards the groups. When he still was outside the sensors range, he awaited for Glaurung to get into position before he and the clones dashed beneath the smuggler group. As his hand reached up from the ground and grabbed around the mans ankle, he knew that he had been fast enough, the sensors had been focusing too much of their effort above ground or towards the girls to see beneath them. Earth were shattered around him as he and the clones pulled down the smugglers in the ground and immediately kicked the surprised heads like footballs. His foot ached a little as he balanced on it, but as the heads of the men were against the ground, he now only had to worry about the ladies.

I merely waited for Emi's action as I moved into my position. I was a little over fifty meters from the group disguising my presence with my camouflage technique. I was a dragon lying in wait for my meal, the second Emi acted is when I would feast. My mind drifted back to my invasion of the Land of Bears. I recalled chasing a farmer out of hi home and following him into town. There people had gather in the center with pitchfork, raising an army to come and hunt me yet I wasn't to be trifled with. As they gathered their strength I moved to the outskirts of town and waited then as well. As they ran toward the burning farm I watched them all leave and then attacked their defenseless homes. I formed hand signs, breaking my all fours posture, and then took in a deep breath. I began to build my chakra in my throat and cupped my hand before my mouth. Exhaling I produced a large fireball twice the size of myself and began to set fire to one of the buildings as I ensured a continuous stream of flame. My fire instantly scorched the building yet it took a long time to have it light a self sustaining blaze.

Still the effect was adequate and I moved on to the building next door. Again I continued to pour flames out of my mouth and upon the humans home after forming more hand signs and spewing more fire style chakra. I felt the heat of my flames pour upon the second building as the first sound of screams caught my ears. One of the men's wives had caught onto my plans so I leapt on top of the building so I could spot her. I found her running out of the house with her children, oh so defenseless, and I built up my chakra. Flicking through hand signs I began to spew more flames as I leapt down too give chase after the family. Burning them alive I caught the attention of more women and children who had run out of their homes only to spy my terrifying form. It was only now that I realised just how large this town was. There were so many houses, I needed to find a way to make this quicker before the men returned. This fire style technique, I could make it more useful. I began to form hand signs as the humans scurried about and I cupped my hand to my mouth again.

To get the effect I wanted I was going to use the same jutsu but release it in one single ball of fire. I put all my energy into a single sphere and I spat out a large ball of fire. It wasn't as large as the continuous blaze I had created, only about four feet in diameter though the range was much larger. The ball sailed before me and slammed into a nearby house, exploding on impact creating a loud bang as it did so. This explosion had a result I much preferred than to which I was already doing. As I spectated my attempt I noticed that the house had caught ablaze, but was this a fluke? I hoped not as I formed the hand signs again and repeated the process, aiming this time at the house next door. I built up my chakra, cupped my hands, and fired a second orb of flames again four feet in diameter. This fire ball launched itself from my mouth and slammed into my target, crashing through a wall before exploding and catching it alight as it careened its way through the wood amidst the screams of the fleeing civilians.

I recall feeling so elated in that moment, elated as I was now waiting for Emi to make his move. I began to form hand signs and held the tiger seal at the end of the string. From there I continued to build my chakra, building up more and more as I formed it into one great sphere within me. Emi's hands then ripped up from the earth, snatching some of the men in the process however two escaped his grasp. Three men, and one woman (the guards) were quickly disabled and I kicked into action. Watching how this Nero moved I made him my target and blew out a giant ball of fire toward him. The fireball was easily three times my size, and it moved to clear the distance between myself and Nero in an instant. It would blow up in Nero's face, disabling him to say the least, creating an explosion that would damn near engulf Emi himself but for the most part the Chuunin would merely feel the warmth of fire on his back as he and his clones moved in to assail the woman smuggler and her partner.

I moved in with a double body flicker movement only to find that the woman's partner had done the same to me closing the distance between us to merely ten meters. I flashed a series of hand signs to perform the fireball jutsu again and began to spew forth more flames. In response the black clad man, with a look of ruthlessness upon him, flickered a third time to reach a position behind myself. My flames continuing to spew from my mouth I had little time to react to the man and so I used my tail to buffet him away as I turned around, flames still pouring from my mouth to deter him from further attack. He escaped backward to avoid the flames and bore his claws toward me. I almost reached for my sword yet as I seen this action of his I decided against it and instead I bore my claws against his and we stared each other down for a moment before continuing the fight.

Meanwhile with Emi, he would find himself accosted by the woman in brown. Her eyes would be glowing red with power and she would continue to have that smile plastered on her face. She truly was a beauty. She emitted a aura that seemingly forbid Emi from approaching as if when he merely approached he took damage. She was forming hand seals as well attempting to force a feeling of calmness upon the Hoshigaki, making him feel as sense of euphoria as if to defuse the situation...

It didn´t go perfectly smooth when he was supposed to pull the smugglers down but it was no problems for them as the remaining ones quickly were dealt with. The woman in front of him was however not going to await his initiate and immediately used some kind of forceful technique towards him. He could feel a eerie tingle in his body right before his body began to hurt, it wasn't any direct damage towards him but he could feel how it was draining him. Confused on what the girl was doing with him, he began to dash towards her. She did however continue with more seals, eager to end the combat early? Since he had no idea what she was doing, he expected some worse version of what he was already hit with, something that he couldn't just avoid. So he released his divine barrier to guard himself from any possible incoming threat.

1 Minute Glaurung, that's all the fun we can offer ourselves today.

He exclaimed as a dark blue shine surrounded the young boy and made the new technique wear off before really affecting Emi to the full degree. His emotions had calmed down slightly, but he still understood they were the enemies. Leti saw the change in Emi's aura and knew somewhat what had happened. So she performed some more seals while Emi still was fairly far away and released long vines of dark shadows. Emi had never encountered the actual effect of such a jutsu first hand, but he had seen those being used. Uncertain if his shield would protect him from shadows, he began to jump away from the vines to avoid getting stuck. They moved around quickly, yet it was no problem for him on such open terrain. The shadows would prove to reach fairly far, so to avoid getting too far from his friend, he made sure to dash sideways and then closer to the girl again.

That would prove to be a mistake as that would take him past a large area of wet ground. It was not normal water that he could just walk on, it was mud that could pull him down if he was not careful. So while he still avoided the greedy vines of darkness, he jumped back and forth between the apparent dry spots that he could find. Since it was dryer the further away from the water he came, he tried to stay there as much as possible. But when Leti saw that, she moved out on the dryer part and allowed her dark vines to swallow the entire area. Emi was left out and had to quickly make decisions on were he would jump next. It was very hard for him to gain any ground as the woman had managed to lure him into a pinch. Emi swore through his teeth as his eyes scanned the nearby area to make out what to do next.

The fact that he didn't know if he was protected or not made him quite annoyed and eager to actually try it out. But then he took a deep breath and jumped back a little extra to get some time to think. He would just need to get out of his bad positioning, so his head turned towards the wood. It was dark, making it easier for the woman, but it would be easier for him to advance as he was already familiar with that terrain. So when the vines of shadows launched themselves against Emi yet another time, he made a long jump into the nearest tree. He could feel how his body automatically moved through the branches without so much as a scratch. He was glad that he had been practicing just a few hours earlier, it was really coming in handy.

After he had jumped around and avoided the vines for another few seconds, he had found himself a lot closer to the remaining trio. Leti appeared to be getting scared. Emi smiled and jumped in behind a bush before he used a series of bodyflicks to get closer to the woman. When he had arrived right to her, he realized that he had been dashing through the swamp-like terrain without even thinking about it. Dumb luck or actually skills? he didn't know, but he was glad he had been able to do it. He threw a hard blow towards the womans upper body using his entire weight and speed, and the blow would land on her upper left arm as Emi came in from that side. Would she be able to read his movements and avoid the dangerous blow? He hoped not, but as he was might still be under some jutsu, he expected that something could go very wrong, quickly. So as his arm was about to reach the woman, Emi already planned a quick escape route for a bodyflick, if needed.
