Team Blitz Mission - Protect the General Store

[JiMmIyZ - Hel]

Protect the general store!
Rank of mission: C
Danger: Medium
Posting Minimum: 4
Description of mission: A small shop in the town of Tanzaku gai has been the victim of numerous burglary events in the past. The poor shop owner in on edge trying to protect his shop, and usually has a stock of kunai and weaponry under his till. To try and protect his business, he has hired shinobi from the nearby village to try and show the criminals a taste of their own medicine. The owner has heard of a planned attack, and upon the eve of the day planned, he wants the shinobi to protect the store over the night and protect the shop.
Mission objectives:
• Protect the shop.
• Give the criminals a warning that they’ll never forget!
• Don’t let the criminals steal any ryo!
Reward: 2,000

In a small store called the 'The Gift Shop Nakamura', roughly translated as 'The Gift Shop in a Village', towards the edge of the residential district of Tanzaku-Gai, a nervous shop owner checked his clock while wiping down his reception counter with a damp cloth, standing behind said counter. "Almost time..." he spoke sadly to himself. His store was clean and empty, foregoing the products on display in his shelves, not a customer in sight. Anyone who would usually shop there was not present, all full well knowing that soon there would be another burglary attempt, no one wanting to get caught up in the cross fire.

The store sold things such as teddy bears, gift cards, and chocolates, and the owner was a slender man in his thirties called Hiroki. He had short black hair, pale skin, hazel eyes and stood at about five foot nine inches tall. He also wore a simple light coloured robe consisting mainly of the colours baige and light auburn.

Continuing to speak to himself, Hiroki put his cloth away and pulled out a box of kunai from under his till. "Those ninja I hired from the leaf village should be here soon but... If they don't come will I have to fight them off myself...? I shouldn't have ordered these kunai... I don't care for violence." The man pulled out one of thirty kunai from the box and set the rest back down under the till. "Only an hour to go... Those ninja must show up... Else, I may do something I'll regret..."

[enter]
sogeki saw the shop and hastened his pace. Soon his first mission would begin. He had no clue what to expect so he had his byakugan activated the entire time. 'i have no clue what will happen but this will be interesting' he thought as he let his teammates catch up.....

Shuichi caught up to Sogeki his speed moderately fast paced staying behind the byakugan user seeing as he was the sensor of the team and could alert them to any attacks or possible ambushes. The genin stayed ready, keeping his focus on the surrounding area just in case the byakugan wasn't developed enough to pick up the foes from a different direction. Shuichi wasn't the type to depend on others and as such he always looked out for himself all of the time instead of depending on others. "See any enemies?" He asked curiously keeping his hands on his pouch just in case he needed to quickly pull out some shuriken and launch them at an oncoming opponent, which of course was only a distraction which he would then use his long sword to block or then possibly attack.

OOC: Shuichi you sig is hilarious. That is Hibiri from KHR dancing right? And guys, don't feel offended about Woody's character he is just arrogant and stubborn. Makes the team more fun right?


Of course I will lay back and let my teammates do all the work. It's like sightseeing over here as I squatted comfortably on my clay harrier. I was enjoying the taste of the chocolate flavour chewing clay in my mouth. I could try strawberry sometime, how about lemon? The clay bird trailing the team behind, soaring towards the shop. Greed was right behind me and he was cautious though, knowing his master was the ignorant kind.



It was a pain for the crow to look after his master, resulting in the raven sometimes giving attitude to him, I thought it should be the opposite as the master should look out for the pet? The sharp black eyes glance through the surrounding, looking for any incoming attacks.

[Sogeki]

"see any enemies?" Sogeki heard Shuichi say. 'he has a point, from what Amarante said, all the enemy would need is to have heard that we were coming and they could ambush us.' sogeki thought. " no, I don't see anyone, let's wait for the rest of the group before we meet with the shop owner." sogeki commented as he slowed to a stop...

[JiMmIyZ - Hel]

Arriving at he gift shop Amarante strolled up to the door beckoning for her team to follow her in. "Come on guys let's get this over with" the young blond would sigh, opening the door. Once inside Amarante would try and announce her presence but would be abruptly cut off as soon as the bell hitched above the bell sounded declaring the entrance of a customer. ”Ah please don’t hurt me! the form of a cowering man behind a shelf of teddy bears wailed. Amarante stood at the door frozen in shock and pity of the guy, cowing before a twelve year old girl… It was embarrassing, for him at least.

Peeking through closed eyes Hiroki noticed that he was mistaken on who had entered his shop and quickly fixed himself and stood upright. ”Oh, ah… Welcome is there anything I can help you with?” the man offered but Amarante quickly shot down his offer of aid and fully entered the shot, now allowing her team entrance. ”Actually I’m pretty sure there’s something we can help you with, we’re the ninja you hired from the leaf village.” Hiroki’s eyes light up at the mention of the leaf ninja. ”Oh my leaf ninja?! You’ve come not a moment too soon” the man said excitedly, running behind his store counter.

”You see the Viper gang are going to be here soon” the storeowner stressed, fixing his glasses on his forehead. ‘Viper gang?’ Amarante internally mused to herself. ‘Please don’t tell me I’m going to be dealing with a bunch of punks who think they’re ape shit awesome’ she silently pleaded, a austere look on her face. ”The viper gang are a group of neighbourhood ruffians who go around hassling other villagers, stealing their money and so forth. As of late though they’ve taken to shaking down my store here which is why I’ve asked for the leaf villages help.”

Amarante sighed. ”I guess I’m gonna have to deal with some stupid punks after all” she complained. ”Well anyway I guess some introductions are in order while we have the time. I am Amarante, team leader, accompanying me are my comrades Sogekihei Furosuto, Shuichi Yamaguchi, and Woody” Amarante would point to her companions as she said there names (if they had come inside). ”It is a pleasure to meet you all” Hiroki assured them, bowing in respect. ”My name in turn is Hiroki Nakamura, the owner of this establishment as you’ve probably already figured out.”

Hiroki’s expression then turned from one of friendly greeting to one of desperation. ”Leaf ninja I ask of you, please protect my shop, it is all I have in this world, my one and only treasure since the untimely death of my wife and child.” The man then dropped to his hands and feet. ”Please I beg of you.” Amarante took the initiative to speak. ”Relax you’ve hired us so we have to else we get in trouble so seriously dude, don’t worry nothing bad is going to happen anymore.” Hiroki looked up with cheer in his eyes until a loud crash was heard outside which appeared to be coming from a fair distance away.

Hiroki’s expression then turned grim when the sounds of laughing and haughty jeers were heard. ”That’s them!” the middle aged man then exclaimed as he dashed behind his counter and pulled out a mid-sized box. Opening it, he fumbled around inside, the sounds of clinking becoming clearly apparent. He then pulled out a kunai knife and leapt over the counter, almost stabbing himself in the process. ”Yeah maybe you should just let us handle this” she posed, her words falling on deaf ears as the man ran outside the door to face his oppressors head on. Amarante quickly followed him out, hopefully her team doing the same, letting him take the lead for a moment so he could properly identify the culprits though she kept her guard up so that the man wouldn‘t get himself killed.



At this point the goons (four of them) would be 30 meters away, Sogeki being able to see their undeveloped chakra networks and a fifth around a corner thirty five meters away doing nothing if he had kept his Byakugan activated, no one else in sight. The goons would recognise the shopkeeper as soon as he emerged from the store and address him accordingly. ”Hey it’s four eyes, how you doing buddy? Got my cash huh? a large dark skinned thug carrying a base ball bat would say. The other four were all unarmed but still held aggressive postures. Hiroki was taking none of this however and swung his kunai wildly in the air, shouting profanities. “Not this time, I’ve hired leaf shin obi and they’re going to send you pakcing!”

‘… Is this guy an idiot’ Amarante mused inwardly. ”They’re going to make sure you never annoy anyone in this village again!” ‘... Yep this guy is an idiot’ Hiroki was going to continue with his shouting but Amarante silenced him with a punch to the head. ”That’s about enough of that” the girl forcefully asserted, the members of Viper laughing in response. [colour=red”You had to go and get a little girl to protect you, how embarrassing!”[/colour] the baseball bat wielding thug mocked with his companions giggling him behind him. ”Well we’ll teach you too mouth off to us” he continued, one of his companions seemed to have some sense though. ”You sure about this Jiro? They are ninja, maybe we should go and get Ginkie?”

The bat wielding Jiro scoffed. ”Ch you think we need to bother Ginkie with this? Look at them, they’re tiny, we could run circles around them.” It was true, in comparison the group of thugs were much larger then the group of shin obi by Hiroki with theire shortest member being at least five eleven. ”No we don’t need Ginkie for this” Jiro would then cuff his bat threateningly staring down Team Blitz with confidence, his group doing the same Jiro having given them some courage. Amarante smirked at the thugs underestimation. ”Well now you’ve gone and insulted my team, I can’t have that” The group then charged down Amarante group. ”Go on Team Blitz, show them their mistake” Amarante would give the okay for violent actions with this, confident that her team should at least be able to hold themselves against opponents such as these, in a way it was a good way to test their abilities she would muse before watching her teams actions.

Sorry this post is way too long but I got carried away with what I was writing once again :S it’s a habbit but other posts ‘shouldn’t’ be this long but no promises. Gave ya’ll a picture of Hiroki and the thugs just for some food for thought or something etc. Pic for thugs is from saints row either one or two, not sure.

Shuichi had followed the female leader of the team when she arrived on the scene, walking into the shop and listening to the clients details carefully. Shuichi glanced back to Woody who he had deemed the idiot of the team, and Sogeki who had been the smarter of the two. Shuichi however was a genius in his own right and he didn't plan on failing the mission. The Yamaguichi followed behind the team leader and the client when they said something about the bandits being their and quick fully and carefully remained behind a nearby wall, three shuriken drawn. He was ready for anything, he would let his teammates rush in or possibly fight the bandits for awhile and keep his art of surprise unlike the others due to the clients big and foolish mouth. He said he had hired leaf ninja but for all they knew those were the only shinobi they had sent. While staying hidden this still gave his team the art of surprise, and possible the win if he did it right. Those three were basically the decoys for now while the Yamaguichi prepared his jutsu and techniques for a surprise attack, hopefully the client wouldn't mess up the art of surprise anymore then he had.


(( Yes its Hibari from KHR! lol thanx, also i'm not offended Shuichi's a smart jackass as well. lol ))

OOC: Nice. And by the way Amarante, we don't decide whether our attacks hit right since you control the NPC. Alright.

Listening to the conversation between the two, I thought that the owner was pretty cowardly but it was not his fault as he was helpless against the bullies. I wasn't listening carefully as I was thinking about the next clay art creation I could make, how about something cute, yeah my favorite kitten would do. I continued to chew my gum as we soon was outside, confronted by the gangster. I was the farthest right of the group, my clay harrier landed behind as it was not a good weapon to use in battle as it was training clay.

I placed my new creation, an brown colored cat on the ground in front of me while the aggressive conversation was held with the thugs. A handseal was made as the clay got bigger, the size of a kitten of course. I love naming stuffs though so I will call the kitten 'Chocolate' because it was made of chocolate gum and my leader 'Bumble Bee" as she was blond. The other two teammates have to wait as my innovation wasn't yet ready. As soon as Amarante gave the signal to attack I order the clay cat to walk towards the hooligans. Way to go leader Bumble Bee. Now my innocent Chocolate, go forth and burn them!

Chocolate would then walk innocently to its target. The hooligans shouldn't be scare of it as it was a harmless kitten, maybe they would laugh or scorn at the idea of sending a kitten to fight them, maybe they would even pet it. Whatever they did, if Chocolate reached close to one of them I would spell out the word 'Katsu' after a single handseal was made. There would be an explosion, releasing intense heat from its blast. If the combustion hits anyone of the gangsters it would fry them. This attack was ideal for multiple targets as it covers a 10 meter radius, and can cause anywhere from 2nd and 3rd degree burns. Anything past 10 meters, receives intense heat that singes clothing, hair and most like leave minor burns. If somehow one or two thugs managed to escape, they would surely some burns.

[Sogeki]

Sogeki had mentally ignored the conversatio between Amarante and the shopkeeper, only listening for key words to pay attention to like the number of enemies and times. He then decided to activate his byakugan to check his surrondings.
As he turned it on he saw that there was a group of people approaching and they didn't seem happy. 'i could tell everyone and warn them but letting it be a superise can allow me to see my new teammates abilites.'sogeki thought

as the thugs approached sogeki saw Suichi had hidden behind the wall. He saw woody prepareing something so he would let him be. He was monitering the 5th guy when he saw an explosion where the other four were.'what the heck did he do?' he asked himself as he prepared to fight.

Byakugan
Rank: {"C"} "B" "A"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: Allows the user
Special: ---
Drawback: Byakugan user has a 360 degree field of vision, with the exception of a small blind spot behind the user's first thoracic vertebrae (as stated in the manga). Lacks the power of Analysis. This is demonstrated in an anime filler arc by Ranmaru, who created false chakra circulatory systems through the use of a dôjutsu (possibly a bloodline limit), causing the Byakugan to see inanimate objects as people and the objects themselves at the same time. However, it is not considered canon in a filler episode that a Byakugan user is unable to see the workings of such an "illusion".
Description: Can see the minuscule chakra pressure points. With the use of certain hand seals, it also has telescopic, X-ray, and thermal vision. The Byakugan is the key to Konohagakure's strongest Taijutsu, the Jûken, as it allows the user to see the chakra circulatory system of an opponent. Each level of its insight can therefore be mystified by proper means. When first learned they are capable of seeing up to fifty yards in a 360 Degree radius except for that blind spot. Each time learned this amount of distance is increased by ten yards. When the user reaches up to a distance of One hundred yards the amount of training is increased to that of "B" Rank Level Training. The amount of distance is still increased by ten. When the user reaches up to a distance of Four Hundred Yards the user is capable of seeing even further but with an amount of A Rank Training.
Limit: Must be part of the Hyuuga Bloodlimit.

The creation of ‘Chocolate’ would not go unnoticed by Amarante, the girl taking special note of it because of its cuteness. As it walked over to the thugs though alarm bells rang through Amarante’s mind. ‘Now what did these clay thing do again?’ the girl thought to herself, trying to remember her conversations with Falnyr and Hebbi. The Viper gang were undeterred by the landing of the clay bird behind there back and even less deterred by Chocolate. ”Hahaha look the losers are sending a kitten to fight us how embarrassing, let’s trample it!” the groups head proclaimed as they charged whilst Amarante was still in thought. ‘There was something about a dragonfly… Explosions…’ ”hmm…!”

Something clicked in Amarante’s mind, ‘this is going to be bad, better do something’ she thought, forming hand signs as quickly as she could. The Viper thugs reached chocolate the kitten when it reached a distance of ten meters away from Team Blitz and Hiroki, they were about to step on it and squish it but it exploded before their feet managed to even touch the small feline giving off an intense heat to all around. At this point, Water from Amarante’s gourd had shot out and formed into a large shield in an attempt to protect her group, the girl having guessed was coming from her experience with Falnyr, and managing to prevent any of their clothing from singeing, said water receding back into the gourd once one its task was complete.

“How did I know that was going to happen“ the blond complained. At this point in time, the hidden Viper had gotten away, having run off after the explosion to get his friends. Amarante walked over to inspect the alive but badly injured Viper members who were sent sailing back a few meters to lengthen the distance between them and the group to thirteen meters. One of the members was missing a large portion of his leg now, his foot literally right above the kitten as it exploded, and was suffering from incredibly sever burns, he was on his death bed. Another two were suffering burns to about thirty-forty percent of there bodies while the last remaining member was suffering from only minor injuries as the bodies of his friend had acted as a human shield for him.

”Well now, think I’m still a little girl? And that my team mates are losers?” the girl would taunt. The viper members stared in horror as Amarante loomed over them, all except one. The viper member who wasn’t terrified was in an incredible amount of pain, more so even then his team members with burns to forty percent of their body. He screamed in agony and his team tried to help him but they were to scared to move, unsure whether or not they could without Woody creating another kitten of death(lols). Amarante smirked. “You might as well get your friend out of here, if he dies I’ll be held responsible meaning that I’ll have to do more paperwork which I really don’t want to do so get lost.”

The vipers were quick to comply and the member with only minor injuries went and grabbed the quickly fading Jiro who had just a moment ago boasted his invincibility. Jiro struggled in pain but his fellow viper forcefully lifted him off the ground and made his way away from Amarante, offering himself as leverage to his team mates suffering burns, it’d be a long time in the hospital before they’d manage to even walk again. Amarante wasn’t through with them completely yet though. ”Oh and by the way, tell your boss for me that if he doesn’t want to end up the same way that he should disperse his gang and Never annoy anyone in this town again.” The viper member nodded his understanding and made his way away from the group, not wanting to risk his life any further.

Amarante sighed and looked to her team who she hoped was standing behind her throughout that ordeal. ”You’re just going to let them leave?” Hiroki cried. ”Well what the hell was I supposed to do? It‘s not like they‘re going to pose any threat to us anytime soon.” Amarante stretched her legs and then her arms. ”Alright well we know for sure that they’re going to come back for some revenge at the very least so this is what we’re going to do, split up into two teams of two, one covering the back entrance and one covering the front. Sogeki, Shuichi, one of you team up with Woody and cover the back entrance, the other team up with me and we’ll cover the front.”

Hiroki piped up as Amarante walked over to the shop and took a seat on the roof. ”And what would you have me do?” The man asked not wanting to be left out of anything. Amarante scowled. ”Wait on us hand an foot of course, now go get me a sandwich! Hiroki fell into a slump. He was taking food orders from a twelve year old girl? What had he done to deserve such a thing.

Jokes aside, sorry this post took so long just sorta didn’t want to write it for a while, no muse. Managed to get into the swing of it thugh, the reason for this post mainly is just to add some filler and lengthen the mission a bit, prepare ourselves for the fight if you would.

Here’s some more picture of what you could see the shop as, you know to inspire your muse etc. I’ll add things like these along as I feel like it.

Shuichi came from behind the wall obviously not able to do anything before the team leader had chased them away. "Nice, but I agree I think they will return." He said as he looked over to Woody. "Nice diversion, but don't expect it to work on a stronger an more sensible opponent that knows about your techniques, besides its clay, wouldn't lightning deactivate them or render them useless?" Shuichi was a genius, he thought about every possible detail before attempting something but the mission so far was easy, but their was no telling who or how many they would bring back, or the ranks of said individuals.

"I'll stay with clay boy just in case... my techniques can help should anything go wrong." He spat out bluntly knowing it might annoy Woody a bit. The team leader was the strongest on the team so whoever he was on a team with would probably be fine, and with Shuichi's mind and skill he would do fine with his teammate as well.

OOC: Nice job leader. Just write whenever you got the muse. And sorry about that explosion everyone didn't know it would hit us too. Lucky there's Jimmy lol. And that cat exploding picture is funny.




"Yeah, you are right... But at least I didn't hide behind a wall like a coward...", but I didn't really mean what I said as I was mad at myself for the mistake I made earlier. I could have harmed my teammates if the explosion were a little stronger. Thank god BumbleBee is there to cover up for me, a great leader indeed at a very young age.

I then broke the silence by taking out 4 small bottles with chakra coated ants one. One ant in each bottle and one for everyone including the shop owner. "These are spy ants for you all as presents for the mistake I made earlier. Since we are separating and it would be chaotic if a fight happens, these would be useful, though we have a byakugan user we can never be too careful. Just put it in your pocket so I can track you when I need to. Refill it with food when the rice finishes plus don't give them bitter stuff as they will have diarrhea and you don't want that to happen."



:A bottle with a spy ant and a rice ball in it with a little sugar added. Small holes are poked on the cap but not large enough for the ant to escape.


After giving out the presents I would coldly walk towards the gift shop, thinking about my mistake. And I felt guilty about taking out my anger on Shuichi. I encountered several stuff toys, maybe I should get one for the leader since she's only 12. I wondered around only to find a potato chips bag that hasn't been open left on a chair. Without asking the shop owner, I took it and went for my duty, towards the back entrance, hoping the purple hair ninja was there.



Assuming Shuichi was there I would open up the bag of chips and offer it to him. "Hey Grapes, yeah that's your new nickname. Sorry about just now I was mad with myself and took out my anger on you. I see you are a calm person so you could stop me sometimes when I get a little too hot-headed, like the cat explosion just now. Hungry? How about some chips?

Shuichi looked at the boy and glared at him. "I was using the art of surprise, something real ninja do rather then harming comrades from being careless." With that he quickly turned to leave and head towards the back of the store to guard. He didn't like the boy at all, he was careless and annoying, possibly obnoxiousness and he couldn't stand him, but in a way he admired his abilities. If it were used in the correct way he guessed he could defeat his opponents quickly in a superb way. With Shuichi's smarts and Woody's abilities they could be a fearsome team.

When the boy came out calling him basically a grape the boy would receive a rather cold glare. "My names not grapes, its Shuichi... get it correct." He then heard him say something about being sorry and shrugged. "I don't care, and no i'm fine." He said refusing the boys offers and just simply looking out. He wanted to get over with the mission so he could start training immediately so he could get much stronger but it seemed they would be on the mission for awhile.

OOC: I like the rivalry. ;D

"Well whatever..." I smirked as I took a seat on the chair that was found at the back entrance. It's not everyday I apologize but I got to admit that the purple head got guts, and brains too. I crushed the 'sour cream and onion' flavored potato chips with my mouth, eating it rather loudly to annoy the Shuichi even more. I created a mess on the floor because of the tiny bits of chips that sprang around when i ate, though that was on purpose.



I won't worry about the mess as ants started coming out of my armor suit, crawling through my legs as it reached the ground to clear up the small chips. "I guess it's feeding time..." immediately after I ended my sentence the bag of potato chips were snatched away from my hand by none other than the rook raven. Greed. "Well I guess I gave him the correct name, greedy bird..." I said as I was not really affected that the chips were stolen as it was not mine to begin with. The raven then took the bag of chips to the roof and began eating it while keeping a lookout for any sign of danger. I then lean on the chair, shaking my legs while waiting for any sign of crooks.

[uchihaitachi]

Shuichi kept to looking out for any enemies while his bonehead teammate began eating chips. The crunching was starting to get overly loud and the boy was getting a mess everywhere that it was annoying the Mokuton user. "Can't you be quieter?" He asked the boy his patience thinning from the constant noise that was disrupting his concentration. The Yamaguichi hated annoying people and Woody fell right under that category it seemed because he was fixing to annoy the genius. Another thing he hated was bugs and it just so happened that the boy was a bug user, just his luck. The boy quickly jumped back and away from the boy and his bugs and looked the other way trying to focus on looking out for the enemy rather then focusing on the bugs so much.

─────────────

[Sogeki]

Sogeki had basically zoned out the entire conversation after the explosion. All he heard was something about revenge, a sandwich and chips. Sogeki had other things on his mind. He was replaying what he had seen during the fight. 'something seems off, but what' he thought. Then he saw it. There wasn't four Vipers, there were Five. " sorry to spoil your fun buy I just remembered something. Who else saw the 5th Viper? Anyone?" he said" there was a 5th that was trying to sneak up behind us but he ran once our friend the mad cat-bomber had his fun." he said."we should be prepared for a larger group at any time" he warned as he went back to his thoughts.....

Lol Woody if you wrote ‘run’ instead of ‘walk’ your plan would have went off without a hitch unlucky yeah. Also a good time to point out that there’s a 2 day posting limit

After accepting the ant from woody, Sogeki piped up informing Amarante of a fifth viper member. ”Wow could have used this information a little while ago“ she’d criticize from atop her roof as Hiroki ducked inside also carrying his ant glass ’hopefully’ to get her sandwich. ”Oh well can’t be helped now besides I sort of let that other guy go so he’d tell his boss what’s up anyway so it’s not like it matters too much… I don’t think.” She really didn’t know nor care, as long as she could get rid of this gang she didn’t really care about any of it.



Viper hideout:
A single viper member made his way through the room of his brethren with a tired and panicked look in his face. ”Boss! Boss!” he’d cry, gaining the attention of all the other gang members. ”Boss we’ve got some trouble!” he cry as he stopped in front of a man sitting in a throne like chair. All the rooms other occupants were now looking at him, curious as to what was up. The leader of the gang remained silent as his underling continued. ”It’s Jiro sir, he been taken out by a bunch of leaf ninja, they made it look easy I mean they took him out with an exploding kitten it was so humiliating.”

Murmurs were then heard throughout the room as the other gang members didn’t believe what had happened. The leader silence them all with a wave of his hand though and questioned the underling. ”And where is Jiro now? Dead?” he asked, the underlings shaking his head. ”No I think that he was alive when I left though I’m pretty sure he was on his way… He was messed up pretty bad…” he trailed off not wanting to continue with his description. ”So what are you going to do Ginkie?” a woman to the leaders left asked. Thinking it over for a moment, the viper head spoke. ”Aoi… Tell me everything you know about them…

(A few hours later)

Front Entrance:

It was now night fall and Amarante was still on the roof top of the shop though now she was relaxing, sprawled out and lying down with her eyes closed, whether Sogeki had joined her up on the roof was his choice. She wasn’t doing nothing however, her hands were fixed out in front of her in the ‘boar’ hand sign and focusing chakra into her ears. She could hear things going on around her moreover the lack of things going on around her, the whole place was deathly silent, and then… Footsteps… A lot of them, moving through the streets. Amarante sat up and opened her eyes, still channelling chakra into her ears. She couldn’t see where the culprits of the footsteps were as it was to dark out for her to see, the moon being temporarily hidden by a cloud, luckily she had an ally who’s eyes wouldn’t be hindered by the night. ”Hey Sogeki someone’s coming check out who it is with the byakugan” she’d inform him.

If he complied he wouldn’t be able to see anyone of a few seconds, the potential enemies being to far away, though if he stuck with it for a little bit he’d eventually be able to see the images of people flood into his vision, each carrying with them a bat or a sword of some sort but each of them would have an undeveloped chakra net work… Except one. A sixteenth individual would walk in with a chakra network greater then that of Sogeki’s own but lower then that of Amarante’s, the individual would be barehanded but have an assortment of kunai hidden on their person. The group would then hold up at about 30 meters away from both Amarante and Sogeki.

The environment of this potential battle area would be that of an open street with a few house being lined along the street every so often, the road being 48 meters long before branching off into a T intersection and being twenty meters wide. If the battle here would branch of into the houses it would add an extra ten meters to the battlefields length and the houses would all be single story and 4-5 meters high. Trees would also line the road every so often, use them at your own discretion.

Back Entrance:



As Suichi and Woody would keep watch they would be crept up on by a group of fifteen thugs, each brandishing a weapon such as either a bat or a sword, obviously looking to spill some blood. One however would not be carrying a weapon of any kind, concealed or not, a sixteenth member. He would be bringing up the rear of the group, following three meters behind the group which would now be thirty meters away. The group would movement’s would not be exactly silent however. Heavy foot steps could be heard even without the use of the hell ears technique, this group hell bent on taking on the leaf shinobi head on in an all out brawl.

The environment for this potential fight would be a back alley fifty meters wide and fifteen meters long, the shopping district officially beginning after that fifteen meter stretch with buildings blocking the way. There would be nothing in between you and the group but with the moon being behind a cloud temporarily they’re be invisible to you apart from the sound they were creating and the ground was concrete with a small gutter five meters away from the gift shop. The group would stop at a distance of thirty meters if left undeterred and brandish their weapons threateningly. What will you two do now?

I wasn’t able to find a picture that I liked for mine and sabre’s battle area though I did manage to find one I sort of like for Woody and Suichi. I was sort of hoping that you’d set up some traps or something in the last post but I guess it can be put on me why you didn’t with me not posting what the environment you’d be entering into would be.

Feel free to post something like a ‘Before arrival’ post or something similar l=to like what I did if you think it’d help you. Again my bad

There are two people with a chakra network you may have noticed, I added them in so you'd have a bit of fun but take note that this is still NDE so it's not like you can die, I'm pretty sure I'd be over stepping my boundaries if I actually made some high class shinobi. The shinobi are equal in strength to about half of what the difference in between the two members in your groups are with Woody and Suichi's opponent having power equal to that of 500 tp and Amarante's and Sogeki's opponent having 590 tp

Considering that I forgot to quote it in my last post I’m going to mention my water shield in this one. Sorry about that:

Suiton no Tate (Shield of Water)
Rank: "C"
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: The Suiton no Tate acts in a manner similar to the Suna no Tate. By using water and combining it with the users chakra, they can allow it to move around the body to deflect small incoming projectiles or even use it for techniques.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: The shield can not really block taijutsu attacks, constantly absorbs a very very small amount of chakra.
Description: Small currents of water flow around the body of the user, capable of deflecting small jutsu or even extinguishing C-rank or lower katon techniques . This jutsu activates automatically unless the user himself chooses to "disable" the ability in a situation. Does not acquire the awareness of the user to defend (can block strikes that the user can't see, like the sand shield has been known to do).
Limit: Water Release

Jigoku no Mimi (Hells ears) Universal
Rank: "D"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: With this technique the user is capable of figuring the location of where a sound is coming from. This takes a post in order for this type of technique may take place.
Special: "Hand signs" and "Holds with the Boar"
Drawback: The user must stand still, with their eyes closed in order for the user to gain the capability of judging the direction of the sound.
Description: The way this works is that the user concentrates along the Sound release as they push the chakra along towards their ears. As the user does this, they concentrate on certain sounds that surrounds the user. If the sounds are in a large area and more sounds is created the user is capable of identifying the general location as to where the sound is coming from.
Limit: Sound Release

OOC: Don't worry about the traps thingy. And I thought of that but my character Woody isn't one to prepare stuff but oh well, he will do it for the team. And Shuichi since your character is so smart he should have said something about it. Lol, kidding kidding. And Jimmy, I am impressed it's just a C rank mission but you are putting alot of effort into it. Nice going.


After I have finished chewing the potato chips, I got up from my seat and went through my bag of clay, looking for something to spice things up. I finally got a lemon flavored clay and began chewing it, and with the aftermath of the sour cream and onion chips in my mouth, it tastes out of this world. "Sugar, spice and everything nice? I will call this new flavor I invented the 'Oniony Lemonade Sour Cream' flavor. It should be pretty popular with kids." I would also perform clay creation on some soil to stock up my clays, leaving me kind of tired for the rest of the day.

After a few hours of working and resting, Six white ants would crawl out from my mouth as I held my palm out than looked at Shuichi in order to annoy him since he seems to dislike bugs, kind of gay huh? "So Shuichi would you like to try one of these? It's a new flavor I made. Anyway, in serious note I am gonna go plant some mines so could you come with me yeah? So you could know where the mines are in order to not get your leg busted in case we are fighting in that area. And with your brains you could figure out where to place the bombs. Quick it's getting dark already."

I left assuming Shuichi would follow me. We would then reach the area and it was not an ideal place to plant bombs. The floor was concrete but there were tiny cracks and drain that could help hide the ants so we got limited choice on where to plant these mines. I placed the mines with Shuichi help, making sure they are spread out. I knew that the enemy would certainly make it through the mines as the area was big and there are limited bombs. But it was alright as just one explosion is needed to alert us that there is danger coming.

But luck and time was not on our side as just when the 6th mine is planted, I saw a raven flying towards me, it was Greed and he does a 360 degrees turn, which is our signal between us that there is danger coming. "Pssssssst." I signaled for Shuichi to hide as I climbed on top of the building second nearest to the back entrance on the left side. I soon heard footsteps as I slowly peaked from the roof while lying down, seeing whether the thugs was coming or not, praying that the mines would work. I again ate some clay, this time a vanilla flavored one in case bombs were needed. But I was running kind of low in chakra from all those mining so I hope Shuichi got something up his sleeve to ambush them whether if there is any explosion or not.

Description: After molding and infusing a piece of clay, the user forms a clay creature (Non-flying types only; usually spiders, insects, etc. Small size). This clay creation moves about upon the user command; it will burrow and implant itself in the floor when commanded to do so. From here on out, this creature does not follow have to follow the commands of the user. Katsu does not have to make it to explode, and it can act independently from the user. The creature burrows into the dirt roughly 1-2 feet down, and waits for any contact from above. If an individual were to walk on the burrowed clay creation, it will detonating itself a second later; exploding upward .The blast radius is only 1 meter around, 3 feet high from the floor. This blast can leave serious (2nd-3rd degree) burns if used correctly.

LOL) Also this post is a reminder to adjust your profiles for the new shunshin's. Woody you'd get an extra 40tp and sabre, suichi, you guys should get fifty. Need some help with it just MSG me.)

[Sogeki]

Sogeki heard amarante say. 
"Hey Sogeki someone’s coming check out who it is with the byakugan"
He complied and after waiting a few seconds a large ammount of chakra networks appeared. Most were that of normal grunts but one looked pretty developed.
" it's them" sogeki said simply. Then sgoeki had an idea. 
"do you know anything that hits a large area? If so, get ready to use it" he said as he ran off the roof, jumping to the house ajacent to them.
Once he arrived at a house close enough to the enemy group he began handsigns and put his hand to his mouth. Just before exhaling he mumbled something . As he exhaled a blast of freezing air surged toward the enemy group.....
