Reward:

It was time for her first proper mission in a long time, her pink hair was tied up in a pony tail while her headband sat neatly within her hair. Around her body more than a thousand sheets of paper fluttered and flew about, and a thousand sheets of paper were stored away within her holders dotted around her body. Getting ready for the task ahead she would begin her stretching and start to build up her chakra reserves. Her hands glanced over the seals needed as the paper turned to a flurry. The guards at the gat behind her looked prepared incase of something happening but instead the paper began to come together. The wings formed first then the body took form asher chakra brought the paper together forming a plane ahead of her.

Boarding the paper plane she set herself in and ready as it would take flight up into the air going onwards towards the ocean and seafront. Her first 'stop' would be the land of lightning as she would traverse the land there to make her way onwards over the smaller nation of the land of Snow. While she was flying through the air, Sumire enjoyed looking out over the edges viewing the city and land of sound from above was not something that many people got to enjoy and to her it was a truely beautiful experience as she attempted to make her way to the land of lightning.

Move to Lightning Please

Moved sound to lightning

A dread raven, unnoticed by the traveling genin, would fly several meters higher than she did and kept at a safe distance as to be sure to go undetected by the kunoichi. Otogakure had deployed one of its messengers to keep an eye out for Sumire as she went eastward to the chilling lands of Yuki. The electrical energy in the high mountain ranges of Kaminari did little to abate the deep-black raven in its task to make sure the mission was successful.

[Sumire Violet]

The shift in landscape from the ocean to the vast mountains, hills and fields that covered Lightning was interesting to say the least. It was a beauty all of its own, something she wanted to paint herself and some point in the future. As the rolling landscape beneath her kept moving Sumire commanded her plane to rise up a bit more as she noticed some towns ahead of her, and not wanting to cause a scene or any disruption this is what she felt was the best call for the situation at hand.

Thanks to the speed of her plane, what realistically should have taken days would be over in almost a single day as the plane continued its travels over the land of lightning arriving once again at the coast. From here there wasn't too long of a flight until coming across the land of snow where she would need to land and make her way over to the Snow Embassy.

Move to snow please

[Cadoc]

Moved from Thunder to Snow

[Sumire Violet]

Arriving in the land of Snow, Sumire's first thought was that it was a very fitting of it's name. The brisk cold and white powder danced across the atmosphere in a gentle waltz while a thick ocean of white was laid out below her. Her breath was foggy and her body shivering, she hadn't thought too far ahead about getting her witner clothes ready. A mistake made due to her own excitement. Taking her hands and performing the needed seals she would create some paper clothing to provide extra layers of warmth for her to be able to sustain herself within the brisk cold. After circling the rather small nation to discover the whereabouts of the frozen city she would need to approach, Sumire would bring her plane down for a landing before undoing the jutsu needed to the plane going.

[Sumire Violet]

//Re-Enter

With the scroll now delivered to the Yuki embassy and a distance sufficiently walked away from the captial city, Sumire's hand would weave the needed signs to create her paper plane once more. Of the TWO thousand sheets of paper currently on her, either stored or as clothing, ONE thousand of the spare sheets would fly off and begin to form the plane that she would use to traverse the great seas and the lands between here and her home in the land of sound. Boarding the plane she made, still wrapped in the paper clothes, Sumire set off once mroe to fly over the white ocean of snow before traversing the liquid waters below as she made her way over towards the land of lightning.

// move to lightning please

[Cadoc]

moved from snow to thunder

[Sumire Violet]

The final leg of her journey was underway, by flying now over the land of Lightning she was but one stop away from her home city ready to hand over the report as required for the mission and the receipt of object. The landscape had returned to the mountains, hills, and grasslands that covered the land of lightning, and it was a nice scene to behold. The changing landscapes between Lands and cities, beautiful in its own way every time, much like how the different techniques of a ninja could be powerful and beautiful in their own way. It wasn't much longer for her to once again cross onto the ocean for some more sea breeze as she made her way back over the ocean and towards the city she hailed from once more.

Move to sound please

[chimecho]

Woe, before the swift kunoichi could make it back to home plate, a fiendish reckoning would soon come upon her. Through the craggy mountain lands, a sharp ring of thunder boomed out; a lurid bolt of lightning lit up the entire sky and in that moment, two silhouettes moved with a Shunshin-speed to cover the distance between they and their pink target.

“Haha...” one hissed out in between deep breaths. They seemed to have come a long way; perhaps they’d been trailing her since she first moved through these lands toward Snow. “Flesh...”

Once a source of light returned the rocky plain to its natural saturation, she would see two oni beasts. Despite her being at a high altitude within the land of Lightning, these creatures were still able to take aim at her with their impressive Taijutsu skills. Quickly, one would punch a rock face and numerous large chunks of earth were produced. Each oni would take a piece in its hands and hurl it with tremendous power in hopes of knocking the flying girl out of the sky. In total there had been ten large stones that she had to aptly avoid; and if she passed through that gauntlet, one of the oni-men had already been prepping a Raiton-based jutsu to stun her out of the skies.

Paper count: 2000 - 1000 on plane, 100 on shield, 100 on birds

Chakra Drain this round: S, B

"Oh, Snap!" With kneejerking reactions Sumire puled the plane up higher in an attempt to dodge the first incoming boulder. The creepy voices carrying over the wind gave a shudder up her spine, she was scared of the sudden assault, but she wasn't cowardice over it. While it took a moment the adreneline kicked in and the rush she loved had started. The kneejerk reaction was to summon her paper shield. With her training of paper strength (S rank) she knew she could use it to help block a lot of attacks. The 100 pieces of paper that made an extra jacket for her leapt from the body and began to fly around her almost aimlessly but moving on it's own to come down and block the oncoming rocks and any other attacks.

Defence wasn't going to be enough though so while the paper plane and shield were up Sumire summoned a swarm of 40 paper birds to be made out of the paper she carried with her and the additional paper she had used to make her snow trousers. While she couldn't see directly where the enemy was the 'life' she had given to the paper birds she had created was ommanded to attack any threat coming within her range (50meters). Hoping between the paper shield and the paper birds she would be covered for enough to try get out of the enemies attacks for now.

Drawback: The user must learn each rank of Kami Goukyou (Paper Strength) in order to be capable of making the paper stronger. This works well except for techniques that deal with fire damage or water damage.
Description: By combining ones own chakra within paper, they are capable of strengthening its form. The more attune one is with paper, the stronger it becomes. A vital step when attempting to draw out the full potential of ones paper. Note that no matter the rank of this technique, greatswords and other special weapons B rank and up are unable to be broken by the paper due to the unparalleled craftsmanship of the weapons.

Pēpā Tesabaki (Paper Manipulation)
Rank: ["C", "B", "A"]
Skill: NinJutsu

"Eikoudan!" The howl of one of the oni's rang out as his chakra manifested into a ball of crackling lapis light; he would spit the amassed energy out violently towards the skies where the kunoichi was using aerial tactics to avoid being smashed by the large rocks. By the time he had launched his technique, a swarm of her paper avian creations came swooping down on he and his comrade. Both would dodge the assault as best as they could, but several of the critically cutting paper-birds would cut at their chest and arms, leaving them bloodied and bruised but still voracious in their plight for a sweet treat.

As the ball of light reached its apex, it would explode into an array of electrical energy which should be very effective in blinding the remaining flying creations and their creator. If Sumire hadn't the appropriate coverage to brush off the strident lights that scattered the darkness of Kaminari no Kuni, then she would find herself blinded for a time. Either way, both of the onis then worked the fire element to cast ninjutsu that enabled them to shoot thirty fireballs at their fleeing target, in an attempt to further destroy her means of escape. Not failing to mention the use of Katon would cook her, too.

Raiton – Eikoudan! (Thunder Style – Light Up the Sky!)
Rank: B
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows the user to effectively send a blinding light into the sky, rendering all those at least thirty meters or more above the ground, and within thirty meters of the light blast, to be blinded by the light for one turn.
Special: ‘Handseals’
Drawback: Not meant to blind users on the ground.
Description: After performing the correct handseals, the user opens their mouth and spits out a small glowing blue ball into the sky. It consists of highly compressed raiton energy, packed tightly during the technique’s preparation. Once it reaches the skies, it goes off in a brilliant blast, blinding all flying within the area blind for a short period. Excellent for when the raiton user is outnumbered or simply surprised by aerial assailants, and has no way to fend them off when escape is necessary.
Limit: Raiton Release

Katon: Housenka

Paper count: 2000 - 250 on plane, 100 on shield

Chakra Drain this round: B, C, S

The enslaught was unrelenting, The paper thankfully leaping around to counter the oncoming attacks, the technique was her best defence but like every other technique it had a drawback, the constant chakra drain. Thankfully due to her experience and mastery over paper techniques her chakra protected the paper, strengthening it to the point of being unable to be burned or soaked by techniques while in use. So as the lightning came up the paper she was using as a shield would leap infront to block the bolt that came after her. With the blockade of paper the flash of lightning wasn't as blinding but never the less it was enough to force her to close her eyes. With the closing of the eyes coupled with the moving of the paper to block the lightning Sumire wasn't able to counter all of the rocks on the way. The One Two attack against her worked and a boulder struck the wing of the plane.

Fortunately the strength of her paper kept the plane in tact but defensive combat measures were going to be required now. The paper plane dropped it's form and the paper shifted back into a ball or sphere around her, strong enough to block the oncoming attacks, and coupling it with the paper shield she used her defence was set up. As she awaited the enslaught of the fire balls to strike her, Sumire's shield and sphere should block the impacts although drain her abilities a bit more. It was time to stop messing around.

Once the enslaught finished Sumire drew back the birds and shifted the handsigns to turn it once more into a familiar. Now it was time to summon her big guns. The paper dragon formed before her using the paper birds and some of the extra paper from the sphere and her slots to create the beast. As she landed on it's back the assault was time to turn into her favour as the dragon would make it's way towards the Oni, she wanted to empower the dragon but she would need a moment to boost it. Until then the dragon would fly down and make it's attacks against the ONI

[chimecho]

The demons sucked their teeth. Having not expected so adamant a quarry, they decided to turn tail once their efforts had been thwarted by the Otonin’s paper mastery. By the time the dragon had chased after them, several Shunshins had carried them hundreds of meters away into the background.

Her journey back home resumed.
