Suno sat atop a tower staring down into the darkness lost in his own thoughts. The sky above continued its ever constant weeping. He had the hood of his cloak pulled up over his head trying his best to keep the water out of his face. It didn’t help. Blinking suddenly, he pushed his fist into his right eye and rubbed it hard. His eyes had been bothering him a lot recently. He thought back to when his Sharingan first appeared. It bothered him much the same way as it currently did. But that is exactly what bothered him. It shouldn’t bother him anymore, the “gift” of his people had activated itself. Maybe because it wasn’t mature? His parents had been frustratingly silent on the matter. The refused to really share any more than they had to. They preferred for him to just figure it all out on own.

A cry from below snapped him out of his thoughts. Lowering his fist, he closed his eyes and focused chakra to his eyes. Opening them up, the second stage Sharingan replaced the dark coals that had been there only moments before. The irritating itch had also subsided some while he looked around. He scanned the streets looking for the source of the noise. Narrowing his eyes he focused on a group in a nearby alley way.
“What do we have here...” He muttered silently to himself. His fingers twitched suddenly as he reestablished his connection to Shino, his puppet. While it was dark, his eyes allowed him to see the world around him as if it was a sunny day. Well maybe not that well, but his eyesight was much better than the average person. Twitching his fingers once again, he and his puppet made the same moment. Crouching low, they would jump forward to another nearbye building, trying to get closer to the action. As he got closer, he began to make out faces and slowly piece together what was going on.

Several thugs had gathered around a woman and her child. His lip curled up in disgust. He loved his village, he loved his country… but criminals run rampant here. The village was small, and the country poor. The Shinobi who dwelled here just couldn’t handle every crime boss and gang that popped up. They had other matters just as important to deal with unfortunately for the citizens of the Hidden Rain. He couldn’t make out what they were saying exactly, but he could guess, and based on their body language, they were gonna get what they wanted. A man said something causing the others to laugh. The Child seem not to like this comment and said something back. This of course caused the other men to only laugh harder. Finally above the commotion, he creped ever closer to the group, but parts of the conversation began to float up to him. Before he could piece together the conversation, he saw the kid charge and get pushed back to the ground.

This caused another chorus of laughter. However they were not done. He saw one of the men pull something out from one of his pockets. A Kunai.
“Its time to teach the brat some manners boys!” Suno heard one of them say. His Sharingan active, he saw what was coming next. Reacting with amazing speed, Suno flashed one of his arms forward, causing the puppet to fly toward the ground below. Covering the kid in a protective stance, a loud thud could be heard as the weapon hit the puppet. With his other hand, Suno was reaching into his own weapon supplies, pulling out several senbon needles. The sudden appearance of the puppet scared and shocked most of the men below. Unable to help himself, Suno twitched his fingers and caused the head of the puppet to spin backwards facing the gang, giving it an unnatural look. His puppet looked just like him. In the dark, he knew his puppet looked very much like a real person, so to see a head turn in an unnatural way, he couldn’t help but smile at the sudden cries coming from the men below.

The man who was throwing the weapons seem to be in charge. He also seem to collect himself quicker than the others. Looking hard at the puppet, he seem to feel like something wasn’t right. He also seem to be smarter than the rest as Suno could see him slowly starting to look around above him while the other men were still focusing on the puppet.
“Where ever you are… this doesn’t concern you!” He cried. “This is between us and this trash here. Leave us be and we won’t have to punish you.” Suno rolled his eyes. He was not going to be so easily bated into giving away his position. Aiming for one of the other men, he released one of the needles in his free hand. The man screamed when a needle suddenly hit him in the back and began to panic. The others began to panic as well.
“Tighten up you boobs. Search for him. There is only one and he can’t fight all of us.” This seem to settle some of the men, but others were looking at each other nervously. Watching the group closely, he waited for the right moment before releasing more of the needles.

He relied on the Sharingan, and the ability to predict their movements to time his throws just right so they wouldn’t see where they were coming from. It was almost too easy. Normally he didn’t like to rely so heavily on his eyes but he was out numbered, and the lives of the Woman and child were at risk. He wouldn’t see them harmed because of his pride. Just as he was about to throw another needle, a flash lit up the sky.

As lightning streaked across overhead, Suno and the gang leader locked eyes. After that, things got crazy real quick.
“Look! There he is! He’s just a brat, get him!” And faster than he thought possible, the man hurled another Kunai at the boy. Suno only had enough time to shift his body over slightly to dodge the weapon. Had he not been using his Sharingan, the weapon sticking out of the side of the building would have been sticking out of him.

Suno was breathing hard staring at the weapon sticking out of the building. Whoever this man was, he had some power. Turning his attention back to the ground, he saw the others began throwing their own weapons toward him. These were much easier to dodge. Jumping toward the woman on the ground, he yanked his left hand forward causing the puppet to wraps its arms around the boy, and jump to where he stood with his mother.
“You need to take him and run! Get somewhere safe quick, I think this is about to get real ugly.” The Woman, panic evident in her eyes, grabbed her child and ran. Turning back to the men behind him, he smiled.
“Now now fellas, there is no need for this to get ugly. Simply go home, and we can forget this whole mess. Deal?” He said smiling even wider. “No.” Was the only response he got from the lead man. “Get him.” Four men charged forward taking out various knives and other weapons. Staring down his opponents, trying to predict their actions. Timing it as best he could, he sent his puppet flying at the lead man, tackling him down to the ground. Darting his eyes to the left, he saw the second man closing in. Ducking his body low, he watched as the man’s weapon narrowly miss connecting with his body. Throwing his fist forward, he connected with his gut causing him to double over.

Before he could finish off the attacker, a third man swung at him. Taking an awkward step backwards, he pulled on the chakra strings still attached to his other hand. The puppet got off the man it was currently holding down, and tackled the third man from behind. The first and second attacker were already getting back to their feet and the fourth attacker was closing in on Suno. He needed to retreat. Before he could make a move, he saw another high powered throw coming at him. Awkwardly side stepping the weapon, his eyes locked onto the fourth attacker. He didn’t have time to avoid him and the two tangled up and fell to the ground. The two rolled around on the wet ground, punching and clawing at each other. Managing to separate himself, Suno stood breathing heavy. The four attackers slowly started to encircle him. The leader just sat back laughing. Taking a deep breath, Suno tried to center himself and remain calm. He was out numbered, but he is an Uchiha. His eyes were itching again. Grimacing, he forced himself to focus on everything. Every movement they made. Every slight movement they made, every twitch of their muscle, he saw it. He focused on it. They would not best him again. Lightning flashed overhead again. His face must of hit up now for the men all took a step back. They must have finally seen his eyes and realized what he was. He wasn’t just some kid getting involved. He was a Shinobi… a Uchiha Shinobi. It was his time to attack. Yanking his arm back, the puppet that had fallen behind the group came back to life and fired off several kunai. Two of them hit one attacker in his legs causing him to go down to his knees crying out.

Charging forward himself, he struck the fallen man, punching him hard in the face. Tugging on his puppet again, the weapon flew forward and tackled the man behind him while Suno turned his attention to the man in front of him. Releasing the puppet, he put all of his energy in charging his opponent. The man threw a punch at him, which Suno easily dodged. Throwing his hand up, he punch the man in his elbow. The man cried out holding his arm. A flash of lighting revealed a bone poking out. Turning two face the other two opponents, Suno saw the man he had the puppet tackle earlier was back on his feet. The remaining two came at him at the same time. A flurry of punches and attacks came at Suno. His eyes followed every flinch, every twitch, and every move they made. He ducked, dipped and dodged every attack. His eyes seem to slow down time. It was like he could see the future. He knew what they were doing before they did it. He could see them slowing down. Pressing his advantage, he began to attack. Punching, kicking, and beating his opponent. With a powerful punch to the face, one of the opponents dropped the ground and didn’t get back up. The remaining man, breathing hard looked around him and shook his head. He turned his back on Suno and ran off.

Breathing heavily, Suno looked at the boss. Smiling, he raised his hand.
“Had enough? It is just you now. My offer still stands for you. Just leave and we can forget all about this.” The man snarled and shook his head.
“I was just gonna beat you around. But now I’ve changed my mind. Your dead kid.” With that, the man attacked.

“I was just gonna beat you around. But now I’ve changed my mind. Your dead kid.” With that, the man attacked.

Focusing on the charging man, Suno began to see his chakra. He was taken back suddenly when the man began focusing a large amount of chakra into his fist. He's trained! the boy thought to himself. The others had been nothing more than your average street thugs. This man had been taught how to use his Chakra. That explains the Kunai from earlier. What else could this man do? He didn't seem to be able to use ninjutsu. Or at least hadn't used it yet. Suno easily stepped to the side as the man threw his first punch. Suno watched as the ball of Chakra that had formed in his fist seem to disappear. If the man manage to connect with him, he suspected he would be in for some serious hurt. Grabbing some needles from out of his bag, he began backing away hurling them one at a time to try and keep the man at bay. He didn't have the skill or training to hit anything vital on the pain, but he hoped the pain of the needles penetrating his skin would be enough. It wasn't.

With a should of rage, his opponent began to charge. He kept his arm over his face protecting himself, but Suno could see his was building up chakra again. Throwing his hands together, he began to form seals, but he wasn't quick enough. Giving up half way through, he jumped out of the way as he heard the mans fist make contact with the building behind him. Rolling on the ground, Suno through himself up and quickly grabbed another Kunai knife out of his pouch. Hurling it at the man, he watched as the weapon struck the target. A gush of blood shot out as the weapon dug itself deep into his arm. Grasping at the weapon, the man grimaced, but gave the child a smile.
"For someone so small, you have given us way more of a fight than i would have expected. Your talent is wasted on a village who doesn't appreciate you. You are just another pawn for the village to use as it will. Your life doesn't matter to them. You would have done well with me however..It's a shame I'll have to kill you."

Before the man could act, Suno could already see what he was about to do. The muscles in his arms were already beginning to flex betraying his next movement. Ripping the weapon out of his arm, he threw it back at Suno who was already out of the way. Running toward the man, he threw a punching, aiming for the wound on his arm. The man raised his arm, keeping it out of reach of Suno's attack. Out of the corner of his eye, his Sharingan could see more chakra building up in his other fist. Oh no...

Jumping backwards as quickly as he could, he narrowly missed having a fist wreck his rib cage. Before he had time to adjust, he was under attack again. Protecting his head, he dodged a series of quick attacks. Suno could feel himself losing energy quickly. He could still see what the man was about to do, but the muscles were aching in his arms and legs. The man didn't seem to be tiring at all, which was frustrating for Suno. How many times did he have to cut or hit him for him to slow down? Creating some distance between the two, Suno finally was able to perform the Fireball jutsu he had tried to use earlier. The Mans eyes went wide when he saw the flame coming at him. For the first time he truly seemed afraid. Suno wanted to do the jutsu again, but he felt a massive drop in his chakra. Fire techniques consumed the most of release types. He should have known better. Yet this momentary distraction was all he needed.

Suno began for form another technique. This time the Chameleon jutsu. His skin and clothes began to change and blend in with the background behind him. With the man down momentarily, he used the moment to escape. He wasn't done fighting, but he needed to regroup. He and his puppet climbed up a side of a building, disappearing into the darkness where he couldn't be seen. When he felt he was safe, he turned back around, looking for the man. He was looking around wildly trying to figure out where Suno had disappeared to. Releasing the jutsu, he knew he was to high up, and it was too dark for him to be seen. The man had obviously been tougher than what he had expected. He should have known better than to just charge in, but he couldn't let that boy and his mother come to harm out of fear because the opponent might be tough. He ceased the flow of chakra to his eyes for a moment as well. This was the most he had used them in a while.

With his eyes returning to their normal coal like appearance, seeing the man below was much harder, though not impossible. He really didn't appreciate his gift enough he decided. It really did make so many things easier.He needed to train harder and get use to his gift. See what he could really do with it. Suno shook the thoughts out of his head as the man began to walk out of the alley. From a distance, Suno began to follow him. This wasn't over yet. He just had to wait for the right moment.

The boy followed the man for a better part of an hour. At first, the man seemed to be searching for Suno. He kept looking to the dark sky as if he expected the boy to suddenly drop out and attack. Suno however did not do that. He was careful to keep enough of a distance that he would not be noticed by the man. Keeping to the shadows as much as he could, he, with his puppet, jumped from building to building. After the man was sure the boy wasn't about to pop back out of the shadows to attack, he retreated deeper into city's urban center. Here the gangs and crime lords had firm control. It would take every Shinobi the village had, plus maybe help of another village to clear out the filth who gathered here. Typically speaking, the lower level Genin did not perform missions here. Only Chunin and the most experienced ninja came here and even they risked their lives doing so. Suno had a lot of confidence in his ability, but his heart beat a little faster just knowing where he was.

Having had some rest, Suno Closed his eyes momentarily and began to focus his chakra back to his eyes. The itching he had been experiencing earlier suddenly came back. Opening them back up, the world had changed. The night didn't hinder his vision like it had only moments earlier. Everything seem to move slower once again. When he focused on something, he could see details about it a normal person could never see. Chakra had suddenly become visible. Focusing on the ground below, he had to search for the man again.

It did not take him long to find the man. As soon as he did, he was back on the move. The man would stop periodically at different street vendors or look inside various shop windows. Occasionally he would exchange words with people on the street, though these conversations often seem short and probably impolite. Coming to an old apartment building, he walked down the alley toward the back instead of the front door. The building itself look like it should be demolished. A few lights could be seen, but most of the windows were dark, and hard bars on the windows. Moving quickly to catch up with the man, Suno dropped to the ground as quietly as he could. When Suno landed on the ground, the man had already stopped moving and seem to be looking into his hands. A moment later, a match could be seen lighting up the dark alley way. The smell of a cigarette soon filled the young boys nostrils.
"I knew you'd show yourself eventually. Though, I will admit I didn't expect you to follow me here. You cowards rarely venture here. It seems the only ones brave enough to do it are the children."

Suno narrowed his eyes. The man still hadn't turned around. He seemed to be inhaling his cigarette while he waited for some response.
"We go where our missions takes us. We aren't afraid of thugs." Even as he spoke the words, he could hear the doubt in his own voice.
"Ha! You don't seem so sure." Let me show you why your kind stays away. Suno Suddenly saw a huge infusion of chakra in the mans feet thanks to his Sharingan. He already knew what he was about to do before the man did it, Jumping to his right, Suno pulled on his puppet, keeping it with him. As he landed, he connected more strings with his free hand. He suddenly began a flurry of movements. The puppet seem to come to life. The man, cigarette still in his mouth, showed amazing quickness. He was a very big man. Roughly 6'2, 230 pounds, a lot of muscles could be seen in his arms. But he moved as quickly and as nimble as a dancer. The puppet and man danced back and forth, dealing blows and dodging attacks. The man kept trying to push his attack to get closer to the boy.

Suno, using his eyes, did the best he could to predict his movements and stay a step ahead of the man. He didn't let the man get close to him. The thug had already shown he would easily win in a 1 on 1 fist fight. Suno saw a large chakra build up in the mans fist. Pulling back on the puppet with both hands, the puppet Shino narrowly avoided being destroyed by a massive strike. The thug was thrown off balance and fell forward. Taking advantage of the situation, Suno made a movement with his fingers causing a gun to poke out of the puppets mouth. Three Senbon needles suddenly shot out in rapid succession. One his his arm, one his his neck, and the final needle missed the mark and flew off into the darkness. The sudden pain of the needles caused the man to cry out in shock. As he hit the ground, Suno smiled wide.

"Don't underestimate a Rain Ninja. No matter how young. We are all talented. The best Shinbi in the world. Underestimating us is a quick way to die." The boy continued to watch the man while he laid on the ground. He didn't move for a while before slowly standing back up. He pulled the needles out. The one in his neck had gone deep. Grimacing, he rubbed where the needles had been.
"You should have killed me." A moment later, the man had vanished and reappeared in front of the young boy.
"Oh!" was all he managed to get out before having to duck. He felt a rush of wind rustle his hair as the mans fist missed his head by a inch. While bent over, he saw a weird flux of Chakra build up in the knee. He was confused by this until he saw the mans massive leg muscles start to flex. He connected the dots quickly and rolled out to his right, yanking on the puppet to follow him. It was time to create some distance again.

As he ran around, he forced the puppet to fire various weapons to slow down the man and keep him from over coming him again. The Sharingan made this process so much easier. It was easy to see which way the man was going to go. Suno would simply cut him off before he could move too far. While the two danced back and forth, dodging and ducking each other, Suno didn't notice a group of four people who were closing in on him. He was so focused on the fight, he didn't see the men from earlier rejoining their leader. Firing off another round of weapons, Suno found himself backed up against the wall. It was at this moment that he realized what had happened. He had been so cocky earlier. Now he was at a huge disadvantage. He was starting to tire again, and had used up a good deal of his weapons. Trying to sound confident and undermined their courage, Suno smiled at the new arrivals.
"Hey fellas..Welcome back. Why don't we save ourselves the trouble and you all just run off again?" They didn't smile. Only snarled at the boy.
"Not this time kid, we are done playing around with you. You are far from safety now." As much has he detested the idea, he knew he was going to have to get serious to..he had been avoiding trying to kill anyone, but he might have to start dropping bodies if he hoped to live long enough to see morning. This was now Kill or be Killed. Hardening his face, he stood as straight and as tall as he could make himself.
"Fine. If that is how you want it...Bring it on bitch." With that, they boy attacked.

"Fine. If that is how you want it...Bring it on bitch." With that, they boy attacked. Throwing his hands together, he performed a flurry of seals. The Jutsu he performed with nothing more than a distraction technique for the Gang leader. Suiganmourou no Jutsu (Drunken Sight Technique) was placed on him to keep him off balance and busy while he dealt with the other four. The affect was instantaneous. Suno could see the man grab at his face and stumble around a little bit. He smiled a little mischievously. He normally didn't like to use such under handed techniques, but he enjoyed doing it this time. Turning toward the other four who were taking up arms and charging, he would perform another series of seals and fire off six fireballs at the men.

The fireballs caused the men to break up and run in different direction. They weren't retreating however. Suno wouldn't let them retreat even if they wanted to. The red of his sharingan obvious in the dark, they darted back and forth looking for the closest opponent. Taking on the one to his left, he was already charging Suno again. He focused in on the man and notice his chakra didn't fluctuate like the bosses had. This man just had a short sword, swinging wildly. He was braver than the others...but clearly lacked the restraint of an experienced warrior. The man swung the sword at suno, to which he easily dodged. The man cut back on the sword half way through his swing trying to catch the boy off guard. But thanks to his sharigan, it was easy to ready the changing muscle movements. He had already flipped out a Kunai Knife to protect himself. The sound of metal clashing against each other echo'd out the alley way.

Holding his own against his opponent, Suno quickly sent a kick at the mans knee. The sound of a crunch could be heard as the legged hyper flexed backwards. Dropping his short sword, the man groped at his knee crying out. Before he could get too much out however, the Uchiha Child slashed at his neck cutting off the noise. Soon choking, gurgling noises could be heard. Clutching at his throat, the man toppled over and bled to death. The aftereffect of what he had done hit him like a brick. He did not enjoy taking life, and it had been a long time since he had killed anyone. He looked down at the body, seeing life already leaving it far behind. A loud noise caused him to look up suddenly. One of the three remaining men had seen what he'd done and was in a rage.

His eyes darted back and forth watching the man charge. He was moving all over the place to prevent the child from attacking him like he had done his boss. Thanks to the gift of his people, he was able to see the movements as if they were slowed down. Left, right, Left, left, right.. Trying to time the movements just right, he aimed the weapon he was already holding to where he felt the man was going to be. With a flip of his wrist, he sent the small weapon flying. It flew seamlessly through the air until it suddenly stopped as it carved itself into the mans flesh. The man stop suddenly and flopped over himself, landing hard on the ground. Ripping out the weapon, blood flung from the wound as he struggled to stand back up. Throwing the knife back at Suno, the boy watched as the weapon took flight once again. Moving his head at the last second, he turned and looked at the man struggling to keep up right.
"You're outclassed.." Rushing forward, the boy feinted an attack toward his opponents head, instead changing it up last minute and sending the punch straight into the mans wounded leg. Screaming in pain, he dropped to his knee holding onto his leg once again. This time Suno punched the man in the side of the head. He turned over and fell backward. He didn't move, but he could still see his chest rising and falling slowly.

There were still two more pawns left. They stood next to each other. Clearly they were disturbed, but they were more guarded and seem to be more careful then the other two. Suno could see scars covering their bodies. There movements were more reserved and careful. They were obviously warriors of many fights. He squared up his shoulders, and reconnected with his puppet. Shino walked and stood by him. He was going to need his puppet for this fight. But he was gonna have to be more careful with his aim. He had shot off most of them earlier in his duel with the boss, who was still stumbling around behind him awkwardly.

Rain continued to poor as it always did in the country that never stop weeping. Behind Suno, he heard the leader crash into some crates that had been left out. A deep groan could be heard. That should keep him down for a while Suno thought. Turning his red eyes back to the two in front of him. His left him moved slowly under his cloak. He felt around until he grabbed his last Kunai knife from his weapon pouch. Focusing chakra, he created a chakra string and wrapped it around the weapon. The young boy and the two older man continued to stand in front of each other. Each waiting for the other to make the first move. The duo turned toward each other, and each mumbled a few words, nodding at each other. Suno suddenly focused on the man on the left. He could see his body tense up, but it was the other that moved first. Suno Smiled. He still had a lot of work to do to understand the full use of this power. The Sharingan, at least as he had it now, was not perfect.

The man who had been on his right was covering distance. As with the other two, When suno focused on the man to see his chakra, he didn't see any build up. No training beyond what fighting experience they had. Flicking his right wrist, Suno sent Shino in. The puppet raced ahead closing the gap between the two. Casting a look over at the man on the left, Suno could see he was still standing there, tense, as if waiting for something to happen. Narrowing his eyes, he glanced back at the other. Only feet from the puppet, Suno began twitching and moving his fingers, controlling the puppet with only one hand, the sign of a skill puppet master. As the puppet and man closed in on each other, they began to exchange blows. Sunos eyes darted back and forth, watching the fighters closely. From a distance, it was easy to watch the man, to see every move, to counter every punch and kick. He was able to see it all. Getting lost in the fight, Suno suddenly jerked his head to the left.

That is what the man had been waiting for. He had been waiting for Suno to get distracted. He smirked. He had expected as much. His left wrist whipped forward releasing the Kunai he had wrapped a string around earlier. The weapon was aimed straight at the man. At the last minute, he jumped out of the way, releasing a cry of triumph. Suno's smile widen. He won. Yanking hard on the chakra string, the weapon stopped and reversed itself. The man never saw it coming. A moment later his eyes went wide. Turning his head, he could see the weapon impaled in his back. Turning back to the boy, he coughed up blood, and dropped to the ground. Suno's momentary victory turned to ash as he realized he had taken another life.

Turning his head back to the last lackey, he continued his duel with the man. The puppet clearly had the upper hand in the fight. The weapon didn't tire, pain didn't slow it down, it had no fear, no emotion. It simply did as suno commanded. The man on the other hand, was slowing down. Even without his Shairngan, Suno felt he would have been able to easily read, and dodge his movements. Taking a deep breath, Suno decided it was time to end this. He did not like to play and torture people needlessly. Jerking his left hand, He sent the weapon out of the dead man, into the back of the man still fighting. The man dropped crying out in pain. He could see blood flowing easily from the wound. He was dying, but he was still trying to fight. Suno respected that in a way. Twitching his fingers, the puppet fired two shuriken into the man. Blood sprayed out of the body and was quickly diluted on the ground. The rain was already washing away the blood. Suno sighed. He hated this part of being a ninja. A noise behind him reminded he had one more person to deal with.

He had his puppet join him as the two walked over to the man still under the drunken jutsu affect. He could hear the man moaning and silently cursing the boy for his "wizardry". Suno stared down at the man pitifully. He fumbled around trying to get back up. When he finally noticed Suno, he let out a rage fill cry adn tried to swing at him. Suno easily stepped to the side, which caused the man to fall back to the ground. On the ground nearbye, laid one of his Kunai he had thrown earlier. Picking it up. He crouched low to the ground and spoke to the man.
"I want you to know I don't enjoy this. I tried to end this peacefully. But because of you...four people are dead. You will be joining them soon as well." Standing back up, the boy thrust the weapon into the mans chest. He held on for a moment longer before Suno watched the life leave his eyes.

Releasing a sigh, he dropped to the ground and just sat there for a long while. He released his chakra strings on the puppet and the flow of chakra to his eyes. His eyes once again regained their black coal like appearance. He breathed hard. Even in the rain that poured down on him, he could feel the warm salty tears that rolled down his face. He hated this part of the life. Looking up at the sky, the boy would just sit there for a long time.

The young Uchiha sat in silence for a long time. His head laid on his knees with his arms wrapped around himself. The rain continue to fall, making a light Thud sound as it hit his black cloak. The boy had lost all sense of time as he sat there on the ground. Seconds turned to minutes, and that turned into what felt like hours. The thing he hated most about being a Shinobi was the death and destruction he would ultimately have to cause. Even when he went out of his way to avoid killing people, some would just force his hands. The boy began to stir. His muscles ached from sitting in the same position for so long. As he stood and stretched his aching muscles, he noticed his cloak had various holes and blood splattered on it. With an annoyed sigh, he turned away from looking at it. It was a new cloak after all.

Time had past since he killed the last man. Looking around at the bodies, he began to gather them up. He still had to finish his mission. Dawn was a few hours away, and his mission would be over then. His eyes were heavy with sorrow and sleep, he couldn't wait to go home and crawl into his bed and forget about all of this unpleasantness. Leaving the bodies where they would eventually be found, he focused chakra to his fingers and reattached chakra strings back to his puppet. Taking a deep breath, he jumped away and began to climb back up the buildings like he had been hours ago. What honestly felt like days ago. Leaving the crim center of the city, he retreated to safer areas. While the city never truly slept, it was more peaceful than what it normally was. He liked it this way. The noise wasn't as loud, and things almost seemed..calm. He watched the city below. AT this time of night, there really wasn't much to watch. Most people were asleep. The few who were awake were just walking to where ever their distentions happened to be. So he thought. He thought about the fight that had taken place. He thought about his place in the world. He thought about so many things.

He spent a good amount of time thinking about his Sharingan. He was so happy when it appeared. And when the second tomoe, he was even happier. He was getting closer to being a mature Uchiha. He didn't know much about his clan, but he knew they were from the Leaf. Something had happened to them there that killed off many of them. The few who remained scattered. A lot lived in secret. He had tried talking to his parents about this, but they refused to talk about it. When he asked if that was why they came to the Rain, the only said "No". Nothing more. But that didn't stop him from trying to learn things here and there. Sometimes he could pick up pieces of information from what little scrolls existed on the matter in the library here in the Rain village. He had to learn more he finally decided. He would have to dedicate some time with it. He was excited when he first activated hid dojutsu, but at the same time he was scared to ever use it. He didn't want people to know his secret. But he realized now that maybe hiding it so much was slowing down his growth with it? He had gone from one to two tomoe so quickly. But the third one seem to take forever to appear.
"I need practice with it." he finally said out loud. His voice was hoarse and it hurt to speak. Taking a sip of water from a bottle hidden away in his pouch on his hip, he released a long breath. No time like the present to practice.

From where he sat, high above the ground, he closed his eyes and felt the flow of chakra inside him. Taking it, began to focus that internal energy toward his eyes. Opening his eyes, the world came to life in a way it always did when the Sharingan was active. Colors became brighter, more crisp. Details of the world around him became more defined. Things that were once hidden in the dark suddenly became obvious as if it were daylight. Looking down to the streets below, his eyes darted back and forth to the various people below. Their movements seem slower. At times he could almost see what they were going to do before they did it. He enjoyed how much he could see, how much he could perceive about the world around him when his eyes were active.

He thought about how best to train with his eyes. He had worked with and practiced with his eyes the ability to predict his opponents movements plenty. If there was one thing he was good at, it was this. He had used his gift for this action the most. There were other things he could do with it though. Like read lips for example. He had watched his father do this once before. They were out in the village, and his father had activated his own sharingan and watched what someone far away was saying. Suno thought back to that memory. He had never considered it before. He knew it was something he could do..but nothing he had ever consciously thought about. This would be a useful trick for him if he was ever on a reconnaissance mission. Focusing on a little after hours restaurant below, he could see a small crowd of people outside eating and talking. This was a perfect moment for him. Even though he could see better in the dark than the average person, his vision still wasn't perfect and had limits. He would need to get closer.

Dropping lower to the ground, He began to focus on a group. He was still hidden in the shadows, so no one would notice a creepy kid out late watching them. He was instantly interested and surprised about the bits of information he could gather this way. It was far from perfect though. He could only gather every few words. He knew what he could spend the next few hours doing. He was still patrolling the village technically..but this time he wasn't looking for any trouble.

The group of people began to laugh. There was a group of men talking to several ladies. They all seem to be in their early to mid twenties, with 1 or 2 of the men seemingly late 20's. They all had the redden touch of alcohol on their faces. Suno Silently cursed to himself. He had completely missed everything that had been said. He had been watching this small group for a time, trying to read their lips. It was much harder he found to read lips than to read someones movement. The large muscles movements were easier to see and guess what was next. The lips..those muscles were much smaller and harder to see. To make it worst, the movement of the smaller muscles were much quicker and harder to predict, but while trying to do all that, he had to translate the movements of the lips and figure out what words they were forming. It was all very frustrating, and very challenging.

Shaking the curses and the frustration out of his head. He focused hard on the one currently speaking. He could see the slow movement of the Chakra in his system. It appeared to him almost like an aura around the man speaking. Shaking his head again, he focused hard on the mans lip. He couldn't let his thoughts distract him. He had to be completely focus and learn to adjust to the new skill. The man finished talking causing the group to chuckle again. One of the girls blushed. Suno was only getting a few words here and there still. He released an exasperated breath. What little he could gather from the conversation, the group of guys, one of them was trying to obtain the affections of one of the lovely ladies. They all seemed to have consumed too much to drink. It always amused him that the ones who couldn't handle their drinks were the ones who drank the most.

One of the ladies began to speak back, in almost a teasing sort of facial expression. Suno was able to catch most of the words she said, but didn't seem to understand their meaning. The men on the other hand seem to catch on to what she was talking about as they all began to chuckle gleefully. The other girls giggled, but covered their mouths as if shocked and amazed, almost embarrassed that their friend would say what she said. This maid his face go hot. What did she mean? Did he hear something bad? He liked to see himself as grown and an adult, but when it came to the affairs of love..or lust he guessed, he was still very much a child. He didn't know many women and never really learned to talk to girls..as a girl.

"I'd Like to...you breathless..anytime." The man who had been talking before had started back up again. He was picking up more words this time, but kept getting distracted by the laughter or other people making faces. Focusing harder, trying to shutout all the noise and all the commotion from the others, he focused on her reply. Watching her smile and the various muscles form new shapes as she spoke. He mouth along with her, thinking this might make it easier to focus in on her lips, and to guess what she was saying. As he was mouthing her reply, his face began to grow hot pink as he learned what she was saying. He was beginning to think he should find others to practice with. This group was getting a little too crude for him. innocent ears and all.

Turning his head away from them, he found another group talking quietly among themselves. Two of the three men wore visible headbands. the third he wasn't sure about. His back was toward him. Focusing on the older of the two that he could see, he began to do the same trick with him that he had done with the other group. There conversation was a lot less dirty, but far more interesting.
"-heard about something going on at the prison. A break out. Some bigshot locked away. Never learned a name..but apparently someone broke in and broke 'er out." The man in front of him must have said something because neither of them spoke, but looked intently in front of them.
"Oh shit..you're kidding.." Suno's eyes snapped to the other man and mouthed along with him.
"So..we have a new Kage? Again. From what you are saying..this could lead to a civil war in the village. Do you think it will go that far?" Suno waited a frustratingly long time before either of the two men he could see spoke again.
"Damn..Hopefully it doesn't go that far..but things could get very interesting around here..to think the council might be involved with this.." Sunos eyes opened wide. These men knew some things..and to think they were just talking in the open.
"How did you learn about all this?" Suno never learned how the man learned, but the others just shook their head. Suno began to wonder..where they ANBU? Were they involved in something secret with the village? These men weren't just ordinary civilians. That much was for sure.

Suno suddenly had a hard choice to make. The three men he had been watching...well spying on, started to get up. He wanted to follow and learn more about what they had to say about things going on in the village. He dropped some money on the table and began to move out together.
"Come on guys, I know a nice little bar we can talk about this more." Suno looked around and saw the other group getting louder. Someone was pouring more drinks forever one. Deciding he wasn't interested in crude men hitting on even more intoxicated women, he decided he was going to follow the guys. Climbing back up the towers, he followed the trio, careful to keep to a distance. He pulled his hood father down, and kept his Puppet shino close as if they were two pedestrians walking together. They followed the men for about a mile. During this time, Suno tried as best he could to look for their faces and read their lips at any point while they were talking. Most of what he got didn't make much sense, and it was hard to put together everything when he was only getting a word or two every few sentences. They were keeping their own heads low, and trying not to say much in the streets. He did gather that they were talking about the council still.

As they reached the bar, they took a stool right outside. There was a metal overhang that kept the rain and water off of them, with what look to be some heat lamps to warm up, and dry off the customers from the never ending rain. Suno, being 13 was too young to sit in with them. It would have been too obvious that he was ease dropping on them anyway if he did that. Finding a dark corner across the street from where they were, Suno performed a few hand seals and casted an invisibility sphere around him and his puppet. Sitting on top of a dry box, he watched the group talk. Just as before, he was only able to see two people. As luck would have it, the same two as before. He tried to move around a little to see if he could get the third man into view, but he just couldn't get a good angle. Taking a exasperated breath, he focused in on the guys again.

He was getting better at reading lips. He was able to follow along with most of their conversation. What parts he could see anyway. There were gaps when he assumed the other man he couldn't see was talking. But for the most part, they were just talking about different people. Some who had died on missions, others who were missing. A jutsu they had seen, a fight they had heard about, or been apart of. But nothing more of the coupe or the council members like they had been discussing. Suno felt a little put out and, as interesting as some of their new conversation was, he was getting ready to leave and move on to something new when he saw the subject change. Mouthing along with them, he focused intently on their lips and the formation of various words. They were discussing, he gathered, about various killings of Kages, and some who just went missing. Supposedly, they had a theory that the Council of elders was behind this. They put people in charge they could use, and when they weren't useful anymore, they got rid of them for someone else. Suno frowned at this. Could this really be true? He knew There was a change of leadership coming...but he never would have expected this.

He focused back one what the trio was talking about. The one man seem to be talking a long time. Judging by the facial expressions of the other two, whatever he was saying really upset and shock them. Suno really wonder what it was. one of the two men he could see suddenly started to write something. Quickly looking for a pen to write with, suno reached into his bags and pulled out a pencil and a scratch piece of parchment. Focusing hard on the movements, he figured he could, if he concentrated hard enough, he may be able to replicate the movements.

Watching the arm move back and forth, he could see the various muscles tense up, and twitch. Moving his own hand, trying to copy the movements as best he could, he began to write out their own words. It was rough at first. The words were written as if a child had done it. But as he gained better control, and he got use to copying the fine motor movements of the mans handwriting, he was able to copy down the words with more procession. When the man was done writing, and the others took a look at what he said, Suno began to read the words as well. Most of what he had written down seem to be time and dates of various people and their death. When and where they went missing or were found dead. It was a lot of information to process. Suno smiled wildly to himself. He couldn't believe what he had discovered about himself and about his peoples ability. This was a great gift for espionage and spying.

It wasn't long before the men finished up their drinks and said farewell to each other before wandering off home. Suno had let the jutsu that had been keeping him invisible go and sat where he was for a long time. He was thinking to himself, staring off into space. He had heard and discovered a lot about his village in the last two hours. His work during this overnight mission had been...exhausting to say the least. The fight he had earlier, and now the work he had been putting in with training his Sharingan..everything seem to hurt, and he couldn't wait to crawl into bed.

Still, he had an hour or so before sun rise and before his mission was officially over. The boy eventually forced himself to get up. His eyes had grown heavy, and seem to burn the longer he kept them open. Looking up, he let the rain hit him in the face. The water felt cool in the night air. Taking a deep breath, he returned to the top of the city sky line where he could look over the city streets below. It was roughly 5 in morning. Most of the streets were empty, and even the night life people, and the petty criminals had returned to their beds. The few people now who were out were the bakers and those whose day started before everyone elses to do the jobs no one else wanted. It was interesting to see the city like this. To see the unsung heroes who prepared the city for the coming day. Suno had let his sharingan vanish when he had let the invisibility jutsu go. But high above the streets, he focused chakra to his eyes once more. The world seem to slow down, everything became sharp and clear. He would finish out his final hour or two continuing to work on his eyes and his abilities with them.

He saw a large man below, lumbering forward, picking up trash and litter that he could find. Suno focused in on the man. He didn't suspect him of any wrong doing of course. He simply wanted to look at the mans chakra. A gift he had discovered when he first got these eyes, and something he used, but nothing he ever really focused on. But as he looked, and looked hard at the man, he could see the subtle flow of chakra. The man did not seem to poses a large amount. Still, he could see and learn a great deal about this man. The man eventually wandered out of view and Suno turned his attention to one of the other people who walked the streets in the early morning. Next he found a woman pushing a cart. The smell of warm freshly baked bread soon filled his nose. He felt his stomach rumble.

Looking at the woman, he chuckled. She was probably in her late thirties. Her forearms were big. But as he focused on her, he noticed she had a much larger pool of chakra than the man he had just been looking at. He wondered if there was more to her than just a baker. Had she been a ninja at one time? Did she have training? It seemed odd a woman like that would have such a large pool of chakra. He felt his own stores were smaller than hers. He continued to watch her. He noticed her cart get stuck on a bump in the road. She tried pushing it a few times and nothing. She mouth something, a swear he was sure, and suddenly a large amount of chakra rushed all over her body and she gave the cart one last push. This time the chart move forward as if a knife through butter. Suno chuckled, amused. So he was right after all. She had some sort of training. She would have been interesting to follow and learn about, but he was done with that for the day.

There, high up on his tower, he continued to watch passers. He would focus on them hard and watch the flow of the individuals chakra. Some had a small, almost useless amount in their bodies. Others had larger stores. He did see a ninja or two as well in the steets below. There stores didn't seem as large as what he would have thought. But he noticed their flow was quicker. He was hoping to see them use their chakra before they were out of sight. He would have loved to see how chakra changed and differed when different people used it. But alas, he wouldn't be so lucky.

Before long, the sun began to rise. He could see off in the distance, the faint rays of first light creeping over the horizon. Suno smiled with glee. His mission was finally at an end. This mission felt as if it had taken a month, but at last it was over. Collecting Shino, he shifted his cloak and began his long dissent back to the streets. When he was finally back on the ground, with a happy whistle, he began walking back to the tower to write his report, dry off, and get paid! He still wasn't sure what he was going to do about the village. Learning of the corruption and the things that were going on made him uneasy. And he knew he was gonna have to do something. But he needed to be cautious. He needed to learn all the facts..and make sure he chose the right side.
