[Chuunin Examiner]

Test Information Here

Once the papers before the young shinobi would flip over, the following images would be seen:

Outside View
Inside View

This mansion is your environment for all of these missions. Unless stated otherwise, you will begin your mission outside, and thus must work your way in. Upon each floor of the mansion are fifteen rooms, and five guards are patrolling. Getting caught results in immediate failure of the mission.

Weather: Dusk, heavy rainfall, relatively strong winds.

---

Nyzu: Inside the mansion on the bottom floor, a member of your village is being held captive. Interestingly enough, security is rather lax. The only guards in the area are the ones normally patrolling the mansion. The room the captive is in is not locked, but they are restrained with both rope and handcuffs. Free them, then get both yourself and the captive out of the mansion.

Muteki: A scroll is hidden within the upper floor of the mansion, however, you are not the only one interested in getting it. Find it before your opponent does. As always, don’t get caught.

Atarashii: There’s nothing to steal in this mission, for the information isn’t written. A meeting is taking place on the lower level of the mansion. Using stealth, gather the information being spoken, and then swiftly exit the building with it. As always, guards are on duty.

Yasua: On the top floor of the mansion is a locked door. Inside of that room is a document that needs to be retrieved. Get in, get that, and get out.

Hiro: You've been detained by the ronin of the mansion. During their break, it seems a chance at escaping is available. you are without any of your tools and weapons, only your wits and intellect can save you now. Hurry and escape before their lunch break is over!

---

Remember that you are roleplaying out the process of writing. Do something along the lines of “As John sat, his pencil scratched along the paper. ‘First I would…’ ”

After each shinobi of the village has posted, you will receive your grades, and know whether or not you have passed.

Atarashii had his orders for the chuunin exams.
Atarashii and three other mist ninja were given
several orders pertaining to a single mansion.
One of Atarashii's teammates was captured by the
guard inside the mansion. That wasn't his main
concern. But it still weighed heavily on his
actions inside the mansion on his espionage
mission.

Atarashii's mission was to listen and document a
meeting being held in the main room on the first
floor. He was given a map of a landscape and
schematics on the mansion's layout. They were
settled in the largest forest southwest of the
mansion. The heavy rain and loud winds covered
their nighttime infiltration of the mansion.
Atarashii started to move towards the mansion as
did the others. On their respective missions.

Atarashii moved northwest between the road and
the river. The river fed into a lake and the road
moved west then northeast in front of the mansion
according to the map. The road exited the forest
and went over the river. Atarashii hopped down
onto the road, continuing to run.

At the bridge, Atarashii jumped over the edge and
landed on the rivers surface. He dashed until
made it to the lake and its surrounding forest.
He stopped and looked at the mansion as it size
and details were clearer. It was a large country
estate. Atarashii turned north as he exited the
lakeside forest. It lead to a downhill slope
leading to a forest adjacent to the mansions
courtyards. He hopped downhill to keep his
momentum under control.

In the next forest, Atarashii looked to his side
to scan the area for any guards. The lit
courtyard shone into the forest as Atarashii
stayed as deep enough to stay out of the lights.
The last forest was really close to the mansion
and surrounded a lighted fountain outside on the
southwest side of the mansion. A guard was
outside smoking under an umbrella. Atarashii was
on the side closest to the mansion as he spotted
the guard. Atarahii pulled out a kunai and threw
it across the path. The kunai stuck into a tree
and birds scattered making noise that startled
the guard. He turned and looked into the path.
The guard walked down the path keeping his head
on a swivel.

Atarashii got a running start but keeping silent
as possible."Dynamic Entry" He knocked the guard
across the path as he landed against a tree he
didn't move. Atarashii landed and checked the
guard. He was out cold his cig still in his
mouth. He propped the guard up on a tree and
stuck a kunai into the shoulder of his suit
pinning it to the tree. Atarashii made a string
of hand signs "Wood Style: Roots that snare"

Dainamikku-Entori (Dynamic Entry)
Rank: D
Skill: Taijutsu
Effect: Jumping forward with a kick to the
opponent’s face, the user sends the opponent
flying
Special: None
Drawback: Leaves the user open after the kick if
dodged.
Description: Nothing more than a flying jump kick
straight to the face. Used as an opening attack.
The user jumps straight at their opponent one
foot forward hoping to knock them back.
Limit: Must know Gouken no Kamae

Mokuton: Ru-tsu ki Wana no Jutsu (Roots That
Snare)
Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Roots grow out from the ground rapidly
and wrap themselves around the opponents feet.
Special: Rabbit, Rat, Ram
Drawback: If the technique is caught early, the
roots are not thick and are easy to break out of.
Description: Thick green roots come out of the
ground and wrap themselves around the opponents
legs. The longer the jutsu exists before it is
countered, the more roots wrap themselves around
the opponent and the higher they extend upwards.
If the jutsu is not countered, eventually the
opponent’s body will be completely ensnared.
Limit: Mokuton no Jutsu

The roots wrapped around his ankles and continued
at a faster rate than normal due to the rain.
Soon the roots would have him snared to the tree
Atarashii made another set of hand signs and said
"transform" He changed into the guard and picked
up his umbrella. Atarashii strolled into the
mansion disguised as the guard. Atarashii opened
the door and shook out the umbrella. He dropped
it into a umbrella rack close to the door.
Remembering the schematics the main room was only
a room away, northwest. He looked ahead seeing a
large table with twenty seats with one at either
head.

Atarashii walked into the next room and it was
filled with statues and paintings and the walls
were gold. He continued through a hallway leading
to the main room. He entered the main room He
made a quick right as a group of five men in
suits just entered from outside. Their boss was
accompanied by a man next to him holding a large
umbrella. "Sorry to make you come out in such
dreadful weather..." A booming voice came from
upstairs as an Blonde haired man with a white
suit came down the stairs.

The visiting boss replied "With the money you're
talking. I would've came during a mudslide." His
cohorts all bellowed in laughter. The men
shuffled into the main room. The blonde haired
man sat atone end as the visitor sat in the far
chair close to Atarashii's entrance. The blonde
boss slammed his hand on the table as four
similarly dressed guards shuffled in. Atarashii
moved to the blonde's side. "Focus the security
around this room. Yahado cover the front door."
The others stood silent. Atarashi felt he was
yahado. "Yes, Boss." He replied. The men moved to
their positions as Atarashii moved out of the
main room. He stood very close to the opening he
was guarding. But out of sight of the blonde
boss.

The Blonde started with a few formalities, asking
how he was doing and so on. Atarashii reached to
his pouch and pulled out a scroll and a ink
brush. He ready the scroll and ink brush. "Now
let's get down to business" Atarashii tensed as
he paid close attention to his pompous voice.

According to their conversation. The blonde mansion
owner was a collector of treasures. He stated
that he was fond of treasures he could get his
hands on. Items that were locked up in secure
places like in hidden ninja villages.

Atarashii wrote that note and then appeared
shocked. "That bastard" he said through clenched
teeth. The visitor boss spoke of his familiarity
of the owners interest and several other
clients. He pauses and said "I have an item under
watch right now in in the Hidden Mist village,
ready to be taken at my command." Atarashii was
steaming of this man's disrespect of his village
and all ninja villages. The blonde soon gave him
an offer.. they went back and forth over prices.
They came to an agreement and the money was
exchanged. The date was set and on paper
Atarashii's paper that is.

Atarashii rolled up his scroll and shoved it into
his pouch. The two parties exchanged
pleasantry soon exited Atarashii and the
four guards were standing at the door as the
smuggler soon departed. "Good a new piece to my
collection" The blonde gloated. "Please go check
on our uninvited guest" One of the guards left
the blonde walked back to the main room and
settled in a chair sipping a glass of vintage
wine. The guard came back in a sweat. The captive
has escaped!

Atarashii became surprised only to play the part.
"Search the mansion! search the grounds! He must
not escape!" Atarashii edged to a window he
looked outside, he saw some shadows moving
outside fleeing."Good job, Hiro has escaped with
some help." He thought. Atarashii yelled "I'll
check upstairs." He had not seen two members of
his team as the others escaped. Atarashii headed
upstairs when he got there he dispelled his
transformation. Atarashii ran around the 2nd
floor hoping to find his fellow ninjas.

He saw one standing on the balcony as the leaped
out. And escaped into the forest. Another comrade
ran out of a room holding a scroll. At that
moment another guard came upstairs. "Go, Go!" The
ninja acknowledged him and stood took off out of
the same window as the one before. Atarashii re-
transformed. Atarashii knelt down as if hurt. The
came looked down at Atarashii. "Ninjas! it was
ninjas. They infiltrated the mansion. I'm not
hurt bad. Sound the alarm! Quickly!" The guard
left Atarashii and headed downstairs leaving him
there. Atarashii dashed to the southwest side of
the mansion. Atarashii dispelled his
transformation, ran off the balcony and jumped
out. He landed in the forest and tumbled. He got
up and escaped into the forest. He reached the
forest parallel to the courtyards as the alarm
sounded. Several searchlights beamed into the
forest.

He wrapped an explosive tag around a kunai and
threw it at a searchlight trained on him.
Atarashii made a Ram hand sign and it exploded
taking out the searchlight. Fires spread around
the searchlight. The owner runs out and yelled..
"Ah, a fire put out the fire! Don't let it get
near my collection." Atarashii escaped all
missions accomplished.

As Nyzu would roam through the streets, he would check his hand drawn map and stare up towards the building before him. “Dam… never noticed this thing here before eh?” Saying nothing more he would sigh as he entered the building. Its bleak white halls seemed quite plain and dull as they glared back at him, they were obviously not prepared and hyped up for exams like the rest of the city. As he approached the assigned room he was given his eyes would shift about, first to the proctor who stood at the front of the room. His face seemed quite kind and welcoming, yet at the same time vigilant and foreboding. The room before would have several rows of tables, each with chairs lined up for seating. Selecting one of the few near the middle sections, Nyzu would look down upon the black shiny surfaces of the table to see a paper before him. So this is the exams… Looking around one last time as the other seated around him, Nyzu would catch his eye upon Muteki and smile. The other nin seem to not be of any recognition to Nyzu yet were also all mist shinobi. Note to self: get out more after these exams… With that all said and done, the proctor would speak with a loud booming voice.

“Turn over your papers and begin!”

Inside the mansion on the bottom floor, a member of your village is being held captive. Interestingly enough, security is rather lax. The only guards in the area are the ones normally patrolling the mansion. The room the captive is in is not locked, but they are restrained with both rope and handcuffs. Free them, then get both yourself and the captive out of the mansion.

His eyes would quickly glance over the paper as he began to rapidly scan through his mission. Simple enough… infiltration and rescue, no? Finishing a brief overview of the mission, Nyzu would begin to more slowly read with caution and diligence. Taking each aspect in great detail, he would begin to analyze situation and all possible angles. Since it didn’t state… I presume I am to start outside… The initial problem would be location of the building due to poor weather. Followed by that, entering ought to be a problem, for detection outside shouldn’t be hard with the current situation. Inside it states the target is on the bottom floor, so I ought to find a lower floor opening. With that said, once entering, one ought to disable one of the guards and assimilate among them. If that is to be done, the guard must be either killed silently, or rendered incapable and silent for a duration… then movements will be of much greater ease if I take his place under a disguise… since the rooms are not locked, entering will be of no problem, however one must beware of traps… once the hostage is free concern will be met to keeping them alive. Exiting however will be more difficult for they cannot sneak out by use of jutsu… As his mind continued to contemplate, Nyzu would nod in satisfaction at his brainstorming and quickly pick up his pencil. Beginning to scribble and jot down thoughts, he would mold his hovering ideas into one conglomerate essay.

(The Essay)

Locating and Approaching the Building: After thorough examination of the map itself there can only be one and one conclusion only. It will be easy to spot the mansion. Judging from the elevation levels shown in the diagram (the dotted lines) they seem to constantly increase at substantial increments. In doing so, this renders two very important aspects of the mansion. 1. It is easily seem and located, finding it should not be a problem even in these conditions of weather due to its large size and height. 2. Blatant attacks made against this building will be difficult due to the inclined charge. Now of course the latter should never be considered due to the nature of the mission and its requiring of stealth. With that said, one must continue to study the map. The yellow portions and diagramed lines are some sort of paved walk ways in which the ground is cleared and cemented. In traversing along these paths, it would leave one quite wide open to suspicion as well as attack. The water ways surrounding the mansion seem quite useless as well due to the elevation meaning that it must be scaled by foot. One major benefit of the waterways however, is placement. If one looks to the largest patch of forest on the map, directly South East of the mansion, there is a waterway or stream which carries itself north and then west, ending just north of the pond immediately South East of the mansion. By taking this route, entry may be hidden for the scent will be lost in the water, as well as view muddled from the heavy rains and poor lightning. The only consideration would be time, in which the mission must be well prepared and started early. From there, one is to leave the waters of the river and enter into the forests. This path ought to be a short trek of forest upon elevated lands, making it a slightly safer path, for the roots of trees and other plants will hold the soil in place under the feet, preventing or decreasing chances of a landslide while hiking. Ahead however will be a patch of open land which is elevated. It is best to wait for the remaining sunset to end as all light will be gone and moonlight will be blocked out by the rain. Crossing this narrow section will require stealth gear and blending into the environment. It is best recommended directly north then west, for the forest immediately blocking the view of the mansion will provide cover. While approaching the mansion keep caution of land mines etc, due to the relative proximities of the mansion. None are to be expected however due to the lax security and information so far. Once the mansion is reached, proceed to phase two.

Entering the Mansion:

Now then, entering the mission is a completely different matter. Due to the mansion security being quite lax, sneaking in should not be a problem. That is not the most wise option however and I suggest taking the front entrance itself. Why? By doing so, this allows one to scan and inspect the front entrance, which will most likely become the mode of exit later with the captive, for stealth is not as much of a granted option. First however one must acquire means of entry. In this scenario, it would be best to wait in the forest near the path way for a guard to pass by. In doing so, by use of force or other subtle means (genjutsu, or taijutsu, ninjutsu is not an option unless very weak and subtle), the guard ought to be captured or rendered unconscious. Then if they do not reveal any information they are to be killed. Their attire is to be mimicked via henge for disguise, and then the main gate is to be approached casually. Take notice of details while at the main gate. How many guards are there? Where are they positioned? Do they patrol the area, if so where and when? What is the nearest and most probable exit to choose? With this all memorized, one is to enter the mansion through the front door, for if they are suspecting an abduction of their kidnapped the less guarded entrances are more susceptible and predictable.

Searching/Finding the Prisoner:

Once inside one must revert to the diagram yet again. The missions states that the captive is held upon the first floor of the building. Keep in mind that this fully may not be true, for they could have been relocated and what not. If this is the case, it will be best to find a secure place to scout the area from. The most suggestible place will be in my case, the coat closet, each marked with a black X upon the room. By hiding there, very rarely will I be disturbed or force to act. Also, such rooms are usually locked from the inside, allowing me to hide inside safely. From there, one must begin scouring the house, using it as your base. In my specific case, I personally would then summon a puppet, a raven shaped puppet of relatively small sized, and perform a puppet henge upon it. Duplicating the exact same disguise as I had used upon myself, it would then be allowed to patrol freely among the halls as my ears and eyes. By use of the puppet eyes and ears jutsu, as well as puppet ventriloquism, I may use Puppet show in conjunction to remain hidden while manifesting the puppet. A systematic search pattern will then begin, first by searching the rooms which I had by passed while heading directly for my closet, then by scouring the main hall of rooms which is located at the top left of the diagram on the first floor. The search would continue on until the entire floor has been checked. If on the event someone knocks at the closet door, one such as I would swiftly allow the door to open with chakra strings enveloping the man before me. Immediately gassing and then killing the man, the corpse would be stashed among the closet and the door would be shut as work continues. If the puppet is confronted or the disguise revealed, the bird shall fire an initial round of senbon each loaded with toxins. This should halt the attackers and instantly knock them out, allowing for the corpses to be stashed and killed. The mission would then resume. In the case that the captive is no longer found on the first floor, the second may be swiftly checked. If time seems to run short however, or if the mission enters too much danger it will be aborted due to false information. (Meaning other factors could be off and life threatening.) Once the captive is found, if found, proceed to the next phase.

Approach and Rescue:

Now then, once the captive is found they are to be immediately approached, slowly and plainly in view as to not shock or scare them. They will then be identified and confirmed to records. With that said, their vital signs are to be checked and their mentality rated. If the captive does not seem in an emotionally fit state to conduct themselves, do not free them of their upper bonds. If they are, free them completely, otherwise only release their legs and anything preventing leg mobility. Then informing the captive of their rescue, they are to follow the disguised puppet down the hall. If questioned, state that they are being moved upstairs due to an informant and expected attack to recover the captive. This statement will be valid for by now the corpse outside will have perhaps been found, by saying this, you are also moving towards yourself, which is directly across from the stairs. (Thus validating) At the same time, a second puppet ought to be placed at the adjacent side of the building as far as possible. When signaled, the self destruct core inside shall explode, causing a massive explosion and ruckus. Guards from across the estate inside and outside will most likely rush towards the explosion. Give several moments for them to approach. Once clear, proceed through the front entrance swiftly. If guards still remain another explosion may be set up to gather more attention in another direction. Using the information gathered before hand, select the best fit path for exiting, and head for the main road and direct yourself south east towards along the road. Though easily spotted normally, the weather should provide sufficient cover, and travel on the main roads will make the journey more productive and efficient for the captive. Eventually the road will meet to a patch of forest which was originally entered for infiltration. A bit farther down the river, another portion branches off. Using that portion, secure modes of transportation previously planned ahead of time and escape by cover of night and weather.

(Essay End)

Sighing, Nyzu would nod to himself. Scanning over the paper carefully, he would check his thoughts for any loopholes and what not. Satisfied with his work, he would step up to the front desk and turn in his papers. Then exiting, he would catch sight of his allies as they continued to work.

Jutsu Used:

Kugutsu Mibae "Puppet Show"
Rank: "B"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: The ability to control a number of Puppets in an area while the user is in a distance.
Special: Must be a puppeteer.
Drawback: Drawback is the fact that the puppeteer will not be able to see where the opponents are in the area, but can roughly make out where their location is by the number of chakra strings that pollute the area. If the user is capable of learning the Puppet of Eye Technique then the user is capable of seeing what a puppet sees.
Description: Basically a puppeteer can control a number of puppets in a certain area by using numerous amounts of chakra strings and by staying off in the distance. Using this takes an enormous amount of concentration, making it easy for someone to sneak up on. With this in hand the user would most likely be in a secluded area, so by the help of polluting the area with chakra strings, a user can pin point where an opponent is.

Puppet Eyes
Rank: "B" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: This allows the user the capability to see through the eyes of the puppet.
Special: ----
Drawback: Must be learnt many times. If a user wishes to see with multiple puppets he needs to learn how to see it by how many slots he knows and by how many puppets he has.
Description: With this technique the user sees what the puppet sees. The brain takes the time to transfer the images as it divides up the images so then the user can see in a new way. Everytime a user learns this the user gets the capability to see through another puppet's eyes, by the usage of Chakra Strings.
Limit: Must be a puppeteer. Must know the Kugutsu no Jutsu

Limit: Anyone can learn as so long as they are a puppeteer. Must follow the rules of Puppet Control which includes the distance a puppeteer can be from the puppets.

Puppet Ears
Rank: "B" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: This allows the user the capability to Hear the sounds of that is near the puppet.
Special: ----
Drawback: Must be learnt many times. If a user wishes to see with multiple puppets he needs to learn how to hear the sounds near by a certain puppet.
Description: With this technique the user sees what the puppet sees. The brain takes the time to transfer the sounds as it divides up the sounds so then the user can hear in a new way without getting disoriented. Everytime a user learns this the user gets the capability to Hear through another puppet's ears, by the usage of Chakra Strings. When first learned the user is capable of hearing at a distance of five feet, the more learned the distance increases another five feet. The maximum distance is twenty feet for one puppet, and the distance is always divided with the more puppets that hears about.
Limit: Must be a puppeteer. Must know the Kugutsu no Jutsu

Fukuwajutsu no Kugutsu (Puppet Ventriloquism)
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: This technique allows the user the capability of talking through the puppet in a Ventriloquism type manner. The user is capable of speaking through a puppet. The puppeteer is capable of mimicking different types of voices by the usage of chakra strings.
Special: Must be a Puppeteer
Drawback: Can only speak through as many puppets as they know this technique. This means that if they know this technique only once they can only speak through one puppet.
Description: By using chakra strings the user attaches strings around the mouth of the puppet as the user suddenly creates what is considered as a voice box that pushes the voice of the puppeteer to the puppet. It works the same as that of two empty aluminum cans and a string of yarn.
Limit: Must know Kugutsu no Jutsu, 傀儡の術 (Puppet Technique)

Kugutsu Henge (Puppet Transformation)
Rank: "D"
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Changes the appearace of a puppet into whatever the user desires, making it useful for confusing an opponent.
Special: A small surge of chakra through puppet strings
Drawback: If striked with force, the puppet converts back to normal
Description: Just like the academy technique, Henge no Jutsu (Transformation Skill) except applied to the user’s puppet. The puppeteer invisions what he/she wants their puppet to transform into and then performs the hand seals. Once the puppet is transformed, it is unable to perform any attacks until it returns back into its usual appearance. The user can also transform their puppet from a distance, as long as it is in the user’s view.
Limit: The transformation cannot be larger than 10 feet. (ex: You can’t transform your puppet into a bridge to crush people under it.) Must be a puppeteer.

Note: The puppet is allowed to do such far scouting for distance control is 100 meters.

A test?! Thought Muteki as he took his seat at the large desk. His fist came down on the table hard as he began venting some frustration. Anyone who ever met Muteki would easily be able to understand that he wasn’t good at tests. Who cares what you are able to write when it won’t really matter in the heat of the moment? Planning and preparations had never been Muteki’s strong suit. His impetuous nature was what got him through most things in life. The thickheaded cockiness that inevitably came with literal invincibility had given him these quarks. A growl passed through his lips as he lifted the lead filled pencil and began to tap the tip against the table. He tried to focus on the assignment, but the taping of other pencils against their white sheets of paper was distracting.

What was he supposed to write anyway? He had never been on a mission like this before, what was supposed to happen? Did the getting caught stipulation only mean not getting captured or not being seen? Muteki was fully confused by this idea of a test they had come up with, but confusion was generally rectified by thought. He finally really started concentrating when he realized his whole goal of chunnin hood ridded upon this test. His pen races furiously across the paper as Muteki began scribbling ideas. He was trying to think of an excellent way to enter this castle he had a diagram of in front of him. All he kept coming up with was barging in and doing his introduction thing that he had done almost every time he was on a mission and he met an enemy. It was nerve racking but he finally thought he had a decent idea for an opening.

He began to write on the paper:

The wind howled across the stormy night sky as Muteki approached the mansion. He had chosen a very indirect rout through the forest, that though being slow made up for the fact with stealth. His mission was to retrieve the scroll locked up in the top floor. As he approached the treeline, he would be confronted with a fairly large field of open terrain that had guards patrolling the entire length of it. This would pose a problem because Muteki really didn’t feel like attracting any attention away from the opposing ninja heading for his scroll by fighting with the guards and slowing himself down. He needed a way to take the heat off himself and place it somewhere else. Then the word heat sparked an idea in the impetuous youths head. “summoning technique”, he would whisper.

In a small puff of smoke, an even smaller silver scaled dragon would appear. “Oh Ui, you look as cute as ever. Mind doing your old buddy Muteki a favor?” He would ask with a wide grin on his face staring at the young dragon. “Oh Muteki. You always are such a charmer. What can I help you with.” Said the tiny lizard. When I use the word said, I do not mean the dragon, or Muteki actually spoke. Their silent thoughts reverberated in each others minds. The telepathy of a dragon was quite the useful tool. For a moment of silence Muteki would relay his idea to Ui, allowing it to compile in her head. He thought it was quite good if he did say so himself, and Ui had no objections, so she was off, slinking her tiny body through the under brush heading in a round-about way towards the other side of the mansion. Though slightly slower then his other ideas, this new decoy method would also most likely take attention away from the room he needed to be in as well.

The forest began to seem like a prison as Muteki waited for the signal of his plans beginning. Obviously it would take Ui a while to get to the other side of the house, but hopefully it didn’t give the enemy nin to much extra time to steal the scroll from under his nose. He knew that if his plan started, there would be no way for the enemy ninja to get away undetected by him. The moon rose to its peek and finally the action commenced.

From the other side of the building a light could be seen. Then screams would erupt forth. These weren’t the screams of terror, more so those of concern and urgency. Obviously something was happening, and Muteki knew what. His little firebug Ui had begun his plan. Ui had set a quick blaze to a corner of the building and poofed herself away. All going according to plan so far. The guards around Muteki’s side of the building began sprinting towards the other end to lend assistance to the fire brigade. This left the path clear for Muteki’s grand entrance.

Muteki ran across the rolling field in between the house and the forest. He already knew where the scroll was: the top floor. Since the map the proctor had given him had shown only one room on the top floor, it was impossible for the scroll to be any place else. As he reached the house, Muteki began focusing chakra into his feet. He leapt high into the air and was seemingly flying as he approached the house. His feet connected with the vertical wall, and instead of falling, he stuck. Perfect chakra control. Muteki could hear the commotion going on over on the other side of the house. It would seem that most of the houses inhabitants had evacuated to assist in extinguishing this small fire. With such a minor threat the guards would probably be returning to their posts soon, though with such a long trip around the house, Muteki now had plenty of time to get in and out.

His feet pulled him up the vertical wall, as the delicious rain beat against his face. The top floor inching ever closer. As he pulled himself up to the roof of the final floor before his target, he began walking around the square level, and finally found a window. The room inside was dark, but Muteki could make out a scroll sitting on a pedestal in the middle of the room, and a set of stairs at the far end. “Perfect. Nobody around. Time for a silent entrance for a change.”, where Muteki’s thoughts as his body was placed as close to the window as he could get. Suddenly his body would seem to shrink. He would start to disappear and finally vanish. In reality he had not vanished, just used his Zerri Suru to turn himself into water and slip into a window crack.

As his puddle accumulated on the floor he had a strange feeling of being home free, even though the mission would only be really half over. He still needed to get the scroll back out of the building. His puddle would inch ever closer to the pedestal holding the scroll. As he reached its base he heard a noise and in a moment of panic leapt up and placed his moldable body inside the rolled up scroll. The scroll itself bulged slightly, but in the dark it would be next to unnoticeable. What came up the stairs though, was something that shocked Muteki. The other ninja. He had used Muteki’s distraction to get in himself. How sneaky does a ninja get? It was to be expected though, and luckily for Muteki, he had the drop on him.

As the strange ninja reached his hand out a fist would lash out from inside the scroll itself and aim straight for his jaw. Because of the sudden surprise, the ninja would be caught off guard. His jaw felt like glass as Muteki’s solidifying hand extended from the parchment, followed by his body. His manly form stood now in between the other ninja and the pedestal. He quickly turned, grabbing the scroll and headed for the window, expecting to crash right through it. Though this was not in his original plan, he needed to wing it now that the unexpected had occurred. As he approached the window a loud hissing noise would erupt from the probably recovered ninja. As Muteki turned a jet of fire was screaming towards him. He had no time for thought. He reacted instinctively. A quick shushin brought him behind the pedestal, using it as a shield to force the flames around him. The flames flooded over his position engulfing the wall, and window behind him. The fires of hell lurked in this house tonight.

As the wave of flames subsided Muteki stood just in time to notice the foot of the enemy ninja now coming down upon him. The leg strike struck home on Muteki’s shoulder, but not with the same effect as the opponent probably envisioned. The leg met with his body and the resistance was immeasurable. His body was now harder then the rock of the earth itself, and this pittance of an attack was worthless. Muteki’s hands worked quickly as they reached up and grabbed the ninja’s leg, and then pulling with all his might he flung the ninja towards the wall. As the ninja’s flight carried him towards the window he the sound of glass would be heard breaking. The ninja had just opened the exit for Muteki.

Placing the scroll into his belt, Muteki leapt out the window and sprinted to the end of the roof. From there he could see the ninja on his freefall towards the earth and with a quick spring from his legs, Muteki would push off the roof and fly towards the enemy. His leg would outstretch and his rock hard foot would collide with the midsection of the ninja. Their combined weight drove the enemy a few feet into the ground and Muteki stood victorious. He pulled himself out of the newly created pit and checked for guards. He could tell they were on their way, but all they would find was a newly killed ninja, as Muteki shushined twice to the forest and into the night.

End writing:

Muteki’s pen struck the final period with authority. He had finished. The clock struck noon. He had just finished in time it would seem. Placing his pen and paper at the front desk, Muteki would exit the drab and depressing room, ready for a nap.

[¥asuo ∆waishi]

.:Enter Yasuo:.

Yasuo readied himself it was soon going to be time for the first part of the exams and Yasuo was somewhat excited, though it was unlike him he was looking forward to participating in the Chunnin Exams, though if it was for the thrill of the fight or if it was the prospect of possibly becoming Chunnin Yasuo was unsure of which. After gathering all the things he could possibly need he made his way to out of the hotel and to the designated spot in which he was to meet for the first part of the exams. Following the directions he found himself in front of a white building which was 2 stories high. Quickly he walked in from the door there were a few hallways with arrows in order to signal in which direction he was to go. He calmly walked through the hallways following the arrows carefully, eventually he reached a door which supposedly was where the exams where to take place. Taking in a deep breath he opened the door and walked in, looking around he noticed that others were here as well. After another second or two a couple more people walked in and the instructor told them to take a seat. Which they all promptly did, looking around Yasuo noticed that the desks were lined neatly one behind the other in the middle of the classroom, also there was a large desk which suited a teachers position perfectly.

After taking their seats the examiner welcomed them and scanned over the few Genin in the room whom all seemed to be from the Mist Village. “They must have divided us by Village as to reduce tension or something…” Sighing Yasuo listened to what the instructor had to say, he spoke of how we were to make our village proud and how we were going to continue doing ‘schoolwork’ as he said. Quietly Yasuo looked at the facedown paper on his desk he wondered what mission he was given to complete, it would most likely be a troublesome one. As he finished hearing what the instructor had to say he nearly rolled his eyes as he would have to write out the procedure he would take when doing the mission. The instructor began to say “Now…” though trailed off looking at the clock “Turn over your papers and begin!” Yasuo flipped his paper over and looked at the mission, it was simply stated On the top floor of the mansion is a locked door. Inside of that room is a document that needs to be retrieved. Get in, get that, and get out. Along side the instructions where images depicting the landscape and blueprints of the mansion. Strategies began forming in Yasuo’s mind, in his plan he needed to make sure that he could get into the mansion and out without being caught. Upon thinking about it Yasuo decided that he could do a couple of things, though stealth was not truly one of his things, he always was best at upfront attacking and assassination. After finishing his thought process he made his pencil travel across the paper writing what he felt was his best choice for painting the picture of his mission.



Approaching the Mansion from the Southeast, I would travel through the woods quickly and using the woods as cover, the dusk and heavy rainfall would also mask the stealth which was already there due to the cove of the trees and brush. After passing through the first dense woods then I would cross the small clearing and enter the woods which wrapped around the pond. Once I makes it to the edge of the woods I would have to cross yet another small clearing which was near the house and then I would have to wait looking around looking for guards.


Yasuo looked at the images once more which sat on his desk; maybe he would be given more credit if he drew his intended path to make it toward the mansion. Sighing his pencil created a black mark across the topography map. His path was drawn and now he needed to image this building in his minds eye. Closing his eyes he took in a deep breath and sighed imagining the mansion which he would have to infiltrate, hypothetically.

Path which would be Taken

Envisioned Building

Upon finishing his thinking he looked at the paper, with a sigh he contemplated how he would continue writing. His capabilities at writing out plans such as this were mediocre at best. He was not made to be a bookworm and as such this was difficult for him especially expressing his ideas in written form. Tapping his pencil on his thumb he concentrated a little before continuing what he thought would be his best course of action.

Looking at the building I would begin to make my way closer only after I have made sure that there is not possibility of me being seen, I would make my way to the mansions side and walk up the wall using chakra to climb up it. Once making it to the roof I would laid on the roof and would use my Kekkai Genkai to create a small blob of water which I would create to throw at the window to make sure nobody was in there. Upon deciding that nobody was there, due to the fact that the person would most likely check the window upon hearing a splashing noise on the window even if it is pouring out. Hanging upside down I would use a kunai to cut the entire window out of its frame, it would take a careful hand though it was possible. Masked by the pouring rains sound the glass cutting would be quick and stealthy. In order to make sure the glass did not fall and shatter I would use my Kekkei Genkai once more, by pressing the hilt of the sword on the glass before fully cut I would freeze the hilt to the glass and quietly lower the glass onto the floor. Quickly after that I would replace the glass and freeze it to the frame making sure it would hold till well after I would escape. Quickly I would remove the sword from the window and make sure it looked as if nothing were touched. Then I would look at the floor to make sure it was not wet due to the rain which would most likely have entered when the glass was removed, if it was wet then I would use my Kekkai Genkai once more to remove the water and make it seem dry.

Once that is accomplished I would make my way through the room it was not simply one room, the rooms where connected at two ends which where connected by a long hallway which ha rooms which littered its length. Inside the room I would make my way around constantly watching and on edge and made my way to the room which was connected without having to go through the main hallway. The rooms where open and for the most part would be unguarded, most likely the guards made rounds through the rooms. Standing in a corner I would most likely attempt to toy with the minds of the guards. This is where I would once more utilize my Kekkei Genkai and create small balls of water each of which I would manipulate to almost invisibly travel along the ceiling and sporadically make drops of water fall from above. Then utilizing the second aspect of my bloodlimit to cover the walls of the halls in water and start to quickly freeze it causing an almost demonic effect, this effect would begin at the south end of the main hallway. Once this happens a few things may happen, they could run away in fear, they could all go and investigate was happening which would give me the perfect opportunity to go around quickly make my way past them and find the room which was locked.

The last thing that could happen is that they could send one of the guards to investigate. Either way Yasuo’s objective would be to scare the crap out of them in order to have them in a panic making it easier to get past them and possibly have them turn on each other. By making a water clone I would then use a Henge on the water clone in order to make it appear like ghost like figure which appeared almost as if it where floating. Sending it away a moaning would be heard from one of the rooms near them though away from Yasuo. Once they were distracted by the first ‘ghost’ I would create another and have the first suddenly ‘disappear’ into a wall leaving a frosted wall, then another would appear in another spot and would repeat the same process trying to unnerve them. Once I have gathered them into a room trying to fend off the ‘ghosts’ I would flicker into the hallway and quickly search all the doors until the correct door is found.

Once I find the door I would use a Senbon to pick the lock, which is not hard. Once I get into the room I would instantly close the door and lock it once more making sure to be extremely quite. Looking around the room I would find the document which I was needed to find. Then making my way to the window I would open it and walk down the wall quickly escaping into the woods.

Yasuo sighed he was not sure that he completely liked what he wrote, though it was to late to do anything about it now. With a shrug he got up and placed his paper and map on the instructors desk, quickly making his way back to his hotel room, he needed rest especially if he was to prepare for the next exam. That is if he passed.

The Grading System

1] Grammar and Spelling: I won‘t be a grammar Nazi about this, but this does play a role. Thus, the reason why I suggested the use of a word document. -- 1 Point
2] Description: Self explanatory I believe. Did you effectively paint the scenery in my mind, and was it easy to understand what you were doing exactly? Good description and specifics can make the difference between life and death in Roleplaying. -- 3 Points
3] Method: How did you go about doing the task? Was this a stretch, or did you leave too much room for error? -- 3 Points
4] Originality: Less important, but being unique will certainly make your posts more interesting to read. -- 1 Point
5] Rules: How well did you follow the basic rules of Rping? Did you auto-hit or godmod? Minor controlling of things like the guards walking I will let slide, but there should have been no hitting of any kind, unless your mission involved taking out a target. --- 2 points
6] Loopholes: Certain details were given and left out intentionally to see how well you can adapt and take advantage of things your opponent didn‘t say. In missions or fighting, remember to use everything to your advantage if possible. -- 2 Points

In order to pass this portion of the exam, you must score at least 8/12 points.

---

Atarashii

1] Grammar and Spelling: Good. +1
2] Description: Things were described effectively, so I at least understood what you were pulling off. +3
3] Method: You made this far too easy, and you actually preformed the portion of this exam incorrectly. You were supposed to be writing, and the meeting would have already started. Infiltrating it so easily would require exquisite timing, and I’m fairly sure they’d catch onto you eventually. I doubt these people are stupid.

Also, you were caught by a searchlight. Discovery means the mission failed. +0
4] Originality: Even though I highly doubt it would work as planned, it was a unique idea. So far you were the only one to combine missions as well. +1
5] Rules: You didn’t just break a general RP rule by auto hitting, but you didn’t follow the rules of the exams either. These weren’t actual missions, just written tests. Your character was supposed to write about their mission and their mission alone. No missions occurred at the same time, and that fact basically ruins your escape. +0
6] Loopholes: Usage of the rain will give you a +1

6/12. Sorry, but you won’t be moving on.

Nyzu

1] Grammar and Spelling: Excellent. +1
2] Description: Good length, good details, easy to understand. +3
3] Method: Oh wow, the planning you put into simply approaching the mansion was fantastic. It didn’t only make getting in easier, but the planning ahead also assisted in a swift escape. You even took the hostages condition into mind. This was very well done +3
4] Originality: Wonderful use of puppets and their related techniques. +1
5] Rules: All hits were preformed in a ‘should this happen’ manner, so there was no rule breaking. +2
6] Loopholes: you seemed to incorporate everything from weather to the layout of the land. Loved the detail about the altitude. +2

12/12. Perfect.

Muteki

1] Grammar and Spelling: I actually saw quite a few errors here. It was probably made in the mad rush to get it in on time. -- 0 Points
2] Description: It was pretty well described as to your actions. Very well done. -- 3 Points
3] Method: There wasnt really any room for error. Again, it was a job well done. -- 3 Points
4] Originality: Using a summoning, and sticking yourself in the scroll. Wow, didnt expect that. -- 1 Point
5] Rules: Auto hits and god mods, that hurt ya. --- 0 points
6] Loopholes: Well done. You used the fact that there was an enemy there and added in some conflict. However, there were 15 rooms on the top floor, not just one. If you looked at the top, it said that there were 15 rooms. -- 1 Point

8/12 PASS

Yasuo, I'm afraid you posted late, so your post doesn’t count.


Nyzu and Muteki, way to go. See you in round 2.
