Simple Travel Route (Travel/Closed/pm to join)

[[Calibretto]]

Completely covered in a long hooded cloak with the head cover drawn upward, a 5' tall figure steps out from the shadows nearby, almost as if she'd been there the whole time. At a brisk but non-threatning pace Michiko glides over the ground, her unclad steel feet tapping down ever so softly. Under the cloak she wears a simple pair of BDU trousers held up by a Utility belt with a Butt Bag strapped at an angle behind her. No shirt to speak of, but no visible genetalia per say due to the particulars of how her steel skin came to be. Most of which irrelivant as without the ability to see through her cloak not much could be seen. Inside her utility belt lay an assortment of tags. 148 exploding tags, 38 locking tags, 25 Incendiary tags, 23 Lightning tags, 25 Ice tags, to be exact. Along with 15 hira-shuriken, and a simple Baseplate Compass. The butt bag connected to the Utility Belt contains 10 Kunai and a wireless radio. 3 of the kunai in the bag had explosive tags wrapped tightly around the handle. Michiko bolts out from the shadows and heads forward determined for her mission. Consulting her compass when needed she makes her way to the first stop on the list. She'll need to catch a boat to a small port in the lightning country just off the shore. She's never been to the continent of Periander before. At least this mission would prove to bring her some well seasoned travel time. Arriving at the edge of the Tamon-ten Ocean Michiko spots two carrier ships headed out. Stopping to speak to a dock worker she tries to figure out if that one is headed where she needs to go. "You there!" She calls out approaching one of them. "Are either of those ships headed to the land of lightning?" She speaks quickly, watching them begin to pickup speed as they head to exiting the docks. "Well. Yes the one with the red flags draped down the side over there is headed back that way." The dock worker states and points to a ship though a little confused as to how that mattered as the ship was already leaving the dock."Arg!" Michiko calls as she darts off in the blink of an eye. Her body kicks up speed and she begins to approach the end of a pier when she leaps forward and lands on the water dashing across it at high speeds. Her body tearing across the top of the water as she bounds up and onto the side of the boat. Walking slowly now she uprights across the ide and plops down on an empty spot on the deck near the aft of the ship. Moving over to a stack of crates she eyes a small batch of cargo, looks like its headed for lightning after all. Michiko nods and takes a seat behind the boxes to rest a bit till the ship arrives.

The user still loses the number of movements that the technique would normally require. Description: When the Weapon has learned enough about manipulating their body into different forms of Steel, they gain enough understanding of the transformations to become capable of utilizing those abilities without the use of handseals. In this manner, they will become capable of transforming in and out of different weaponry without pausing between the Human Form. This is primarily used so that the Human Weapon can transition between Weapon Forms while being Wielded by a Human Ally Specialist. Limit: Must have 500 TP in Seitetsu Clan Jutsu.

A lound "thunk" shook michiko as the ship docked. It was about time! Dashing down the side of the ship she set out and made long run through the water and back onto shore down the bay a bit. Within moments she was gone again, like nothing was there. Consulting her compass she headed her way towards the island of snow. It was on the other side of lightning country so she had to dash through the stormy continent in order to get there. Travelling through the land she'd tried to avoid most pitfalls and stay close to the travelled trails so she didnt end up in some random cave by accident. Not paying attention to the time she managed to make it to the other side in what felt like no time. Thankfully she managed upon a city of some kind that had ships docked. This time the docks were clearly marked which ships were headed for which locations, unlike her last jaunt through. This made popping onto a carrier ship headed to snow much easier. And thats precisely what she did. (OOC: Move to Snow Please, compass used) SPOILER: Click to show Items used.

The shop she'd been too had a helped to increase the book collection just a little more. She'd need more, so many more, to be complete though. And with that Michiko exited the city containing the small shop and made her way to the little port again, this time she'd need to make it all the way to an island called "tea" island. She was not terribly familiar with the local information for this island and thus was not exactly sure what to expect. She knew where she was going based on the basics of a page she'd found with a variety of handwritten notes and some basic information she'd been gathering along the way. Thankfully when she made it to the port she'd managed a peek at some ledger books left open on a desk while its owners were away for a moment. It appears most of her information was correct and she'd need to get to Nagi Island in the continent of "tea". Ouzu island was connected to it, and thus her second stop along the way from here. Hopping onto a nearby ship headed for the long haul to tea island when no one was looking she stowed back and awaited the trip. This one was going to be longer than her last, but it was all in the name of progress. Checking her compass the entire way she made sure to note the ship was in fact going the right way. Good ship.

The store was just as lack-lusterly empty as the last handful of locations Michiko had been to. This travel was killing her. Her feet ached, her mind was a little tired, she was just ready to give it up. The stores had produced a few of what she needed but she wasnt aware of just how painfully empty these places could be. Maybe by the time she made it back to her home country the store there would have new inventory. Making her way to the same port she'd came in on , Michiko waits around for nearly an hour waiting for a ship to finally become ready. Hopping on the next one bound for Claw country she settled in for the ride making sure to check her compass to ensure the ship she was riding was in fact doing its job. (OOC: Move to claw.

The stores on this island managed to produce a few more books. It appeared that her travels were not completely fruitless. Just slow moving. As the sun beat down on her from above Michiko left the shop far behind as she sauntered out and made her way towards the nearest port of calling available. Dragging herself to a nearby bench Michiko takes a seat and dozes off for a short while resting. Its been a long journey. Though its only felt like just yesterday she was back in earth country, its still been exhausting. Enough time had passed to allow the sun to go down some, breaking a crisp yellow/red streak across the sky. Righting herself up from having slouched over on the bench Michiko slowly pushes herself up to a stand. With a deep inhale and slow exhale she makes her way to the actual port docks themselves. And in the blink of an eye she's vanished only to reappear walking up the side of a nearby ship bound for the land of Waves. Dabbling in the arts of the soulcaster had its advantages. Michiko remembers to use her compass on this trip because its important! (OOC: Move to land of waves please, compass used) SPOILER: Click to show Items used.

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.

One book. Her list was shrinking but NOT by enough to make her happy. She had one more place to try before she made it home and Michiko feared she'd need to start the entire process over again. Consulting her compass she glanced off into the distance spotting a landmass. Fire country was awefully close to land of the waves. She wondered if they'd just invade and take over.

Passing into the territory of fire there was a noticable shift in the atmosphere. Sadly Michiko didnt have time to sit and examine it in any sort of detail. She dashed through the normally subtropical region trying to avoid any major cities. Her destination was the country of rain. That location was going to be much muggier than this one, and her steel skin was already collecting some condensation from the run through some of the tree's and open fields of grass. Passing by Otafuku and Tanzaku-gal with an attempt to be sneaky , Michiko ran across some of the rivers cutting through Fire country as she bound and leaped for Rain. Every handful of minutes or so she checked her compass to ensure she hadnt been sucked into some kind of mystical directionless dimensional pocket that would stop her from going forward. This time, it didnt appear she did. (OOC: Move to land of rain please, compass used) SPOILER: Click to show Items used.

Michiko saunters off towards earth country. This one shop was more successful than any other shop she'd been to in the past. Her mission was much closer to completion now that she'd picked up the 3 books this location had. Happily, she dashed off into the rain and into the distance headed for home.
