dismiss your fears [private]

[Kiyoshi]

Kiyoshi had received a letter from an old acquaintance, a man he had met back in his home Kitateha estate. The man spoke of how he had betrayed his kin by leaving and becoming a shinobi, and he threatened to reveal it to the compound and bash his name before his family. This was simply unacceptable, the blonde caring about his image even if he didn’t interact with them anymore, just in case he was to ever return. Fortunately for him, he was able to track down where Takashi was, the man who dared try blackmailing him. A small village within the Land of Rain was the location, and here he was to make a little visit to straighten things out before things got out of hand.

Luckily for him, he ran into this man cutting down lumber a ways outside of the village on his way there. The blonde had tried to reason with the other, keeping himself in check at first. But as Takashi continued to slander and threaten him, he eventually snapped. There was only so much he could take. Kiyoshi pulled his wooden Mateki from his kimono and brought it to his lips, the other three metal and still within vertical pockets on the inside of the outer layer around the front of his thighs. Just above those pockets he had a utility belt type two that was hidden underneath the white sash that kept his blue and white kimono together, partially filled with six blood clot pills, a wireless radio, twenty flint, thirty-five circular LED flashlights, four knives, and sniper goggles with thermal vision, night vision, x-ray vision, and anti-flash lenses. His gyrocompass was still in the wagon, with a horse in front of it and his two animal companions, Chiyo and Torak, nearby.

The result of the haunting melody was Takashi finding himself unable to move, the man seeing and feeling wires wrap around his limbs and keeping him still. He would also receive the sensations of his flesh melting off his muscles, and his pained screams filled what Kiyoshi thought to be an empty forest. A pleasured shiver ran down his spine as he heard the screams and pleas, letting it drag on for a little longer than he should. It was clear this man was caving, but that part of him that itched to see other’s in pain was acting up. Sure there was a little voice in his head telling him this was a bad idea, but it was just so quiet at the moment. And to anyone else who managed to witness this, it would appear as if his victim was just on his knees with arms stretched out, crying out for mercy for no obvious reason since the genjutsu wouldn’t be affecting them.

[Tsubasa Musume]

Kyofu stood just on the edge of hearing the man's screams. Until now it had been a quiet day of training, simple practice of controlling and shaping her chakra, but now it seemed there were more interesting things happening in the forest. Training in the forest had always seemed like the best place for its normally silent state, only nature breaking the tranquility, but she was sure that the screams she heard were anything but nature. The idea of catching someone in the act of something they shouldn't be doing was simply too delicious to pass up, and without any notion of hesitation or consideration of how this could potentially lead to a dangerous situation, she set off toward the source of the noise.

Being somewhat weak and slow, she could only manage to run along the forest floor, her black cloak billowing out around her with each rushed step. It remained sealed, concealing her two extra pairs of arms and the deadly clawed gauntlets worn by the lowest pair of hands, but threatened to give her away just by the noise it made as she approached the source of what sounded like wonderful anguish. She wasn't sure how close she could get without being immediately spotted, but she had some hope that the man's screams would be loud enough to cover her approach and allow her to at least get a peek at the scene before being discovered.

[Kiyoshi]

It wasn’t even Kiyoshi who noticed the young girl’s presence, no, it was Torak the hawk who was perched up in a nearby tree. Cawing, the bird alerted its master that something was amiss, and when the blonde looked up at his pet, it gestured down at the ground where the girl was approaching. The haunting melody ended as he dropped his flute down from his lips, his eyes narrowing as he tried to find her among the trees. Unfortunately the screams ended, but the whimpering that commenced as Takashi curled up on the ground was nearly just as sweet.

“Reveal yourself if you do not wish to end up like this man,” Kiyoshi warned as his eyes narrowed while he swept the forest, still holding his flute close to his mouth just in case. The ferret Chiyo was still close by, growling lowly as she readied to pounce at anyone who tried to rush her master. He couldn’t help but be on edge since he was in a foreign country, not even daring to wear his headband, especially since this had nothing to do with his village.

[Tsubasa Musume]

The very moment she hears his voice Kyofu ducks down behind a tree, glancing wildly around herself in an attempt to figure out how he'd spotted her so quickly. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary, birds making noises and animals moving all around. She didn't see any other ninja, but that didn't mean she wasn't being watched all the same. She would have two options, she thought to herself, run now and risk being caught or emerge and risk being killed.

Slowly, with a grin on her face, she circled the tree to come face to face with the man, cheerily saying, "Hello there~" if she did see him. In the end, the bigger and more exciting risk easily won out, and running wouldn't have gotten her anything anyways.

[Kiyoshi]

Kiyoshi’s brow rose when he spotted a young girl, certainly not having expected this to be the type of person who stumbled across him. And how chipper she sounded put him off too, considering the air had just been permeated with screams just a few moments ago. “What’s someone like yourself doing out here?” The blonde sounded serious, not bothering to put up his usual kind mask since he had been caught red handed. Speaking of being caught, Takashi tried to slither away while he was preoccupied, but he noticed and sent Chiyo after him. The ferret jumped on him, heavily weighing him down and even biting into his shoulder to keep him still.

“Help me, please,” the man begged from beneath the six-foot long beast, his features screwed in pain. Sighing, Kiyoshi looked between him and the girl for a moment, oh how things were getting messy fast.

“You didn’t see anything here, just go home,” the blonde said as he looked back towards her, still tensed for battle because he didn’t know anything about her. While he was certainly capable of punishing someone he thought deserved it, he wouldn’t go around torturing or killing random people. At the moment the best solution he could think of was to send her off, to pretend this didn’t happen.

[Tsubasa Musume]

Kyofu seemed disheartened by this man's words, but she didn't let it show more than the slight slump of her shoulders. Going home would mean having to listen to more boring lectures about the superiority of taijutsu. No, she wasn't letting him get away this easily, he was the first interesting thing to happen to her in several weeks. She takes note of the ferret, looking between it, its prey, and what she could only assume was its master. In the few seconds it takes her to make all these connections, she makes another, "A bird. I heard a bird nearby, it was yours, wasn't it? That's how you saw me! Hnn... but if I leave now, how do I know the bird won't follow me? I'd probably be putting my very rich family in danger if I were to let that happen." she grinned, wondering how stretching the truth about her family's wealth might affect this man. Would he know she was lying, and call her out on it? Would he believe her, and perhaps kidnap her for ransom? Already the gears in the little girls mind were racing away, formulating maybes and what ifs.

Another quick eye-sweep of the area and then she focuses her gaze on the man in an appraising manner, taking inventory of what she can see on him, including what might be in his hands. She cared little at all about the man on the ground, though he was the bait that brought her here she didn't come seeking the cheese. This man Kiyoshi, though she didn't yet know his name, had to be the one who had inspired the fear in the one now pinned to the ground. How? Why? Curiosity burned, firing her up to go head to head if that's what it came down to. All the while, she can't help but continue to smile, keeping her hands forward and clasped in plain sight as though to say 'I am unarmed' in a way that one might mistake it for childish innocence.

[Kiyoshi]

Again this girl took him by surprise, as she didn’t seem at all concerned with the injured man crying out for help. She seemed to be at least a little bright, too, having mentioned his bird. But then again, as she openly mentioned her family having a lot of money he second guessed that. “I don’t care for money,” he muttered truthfully, giving her a closer look. It was almost like she was trying to find an excuse to say, which confused him greatly. What sort of little girl would want to remain at a scene like this? Well, perhaps it was worth finding out.

“What’re you doing out here anyway, girl?” Kiyoshi still had his flute in hand just in case he needed a quick melody, even if she seemed relatively harmless so far. Glancing up towards the trees, he sent Torak a quick signal and the hawk obediently began to scout the area from above, just in case she was recon or some sort of bait. With his line of work, he could never be too careful.

[Tsubasa Musume]

She was, as might seem even stranger to Kiyoshi, entirely alone. "Don't care for money? How interesting..." she mused, in response to his answer to her earlier bait. It seemed that this man fell into a rather narrow category. Money was always important, after all, it's what got you the things you need, and the places you need to be. A lack of interest in money was either a key feature to this man's personality, or a lie. Still, she seemed to be at an advantage here. This man was trying to get information about her now, perhaps attempting to turn the tables she thought.

"I was out training," she answered honestly, "with my sensei and a few guards. I snuck off though, they didn't even see me get away. Then I heard a commotion over here and I thought it would be fun to investigate." she finished with a lie, an intricate one she hoped would make things even more entertaining. If she were alone, she'd be easy to deal with. Having several powerful allies, presumably nearby and looking for her, made her dangerous. "I'm sure they're on their way now, my sensei is an expert tracker." she continued, building onto the lie while watching Kiyoshi closely, "My turn to ask the questions, you know, before we get caught. What are you doing out here? More importantly... what did you do to that poor man on the ground? It looks like that bite hurt, but he seems relatively calm now compared to earlier. You must have scared him half to death." at the word death her eyes gleamed slightly in the sunlight, her grin widening.

[Kiyoshi]

The genjutsu master merely rolled his eyes at her comment about him not caring about money, caring far more for keeping his reputation in tact rather than riches at the moment. “Fun?” Kiyoshi repeated that one word, a brow raising. She wasn’t a normal girl, not at all. He was also alerted to her being more dangerous than a normal young girl, now thinking that she could actually be skilled considering she had a sensei. For a moment his gaze took to the skies where Torak was scouting when she mentioned her teacher being a tracker, the bird still not alerting him of the presence of anyone else.

“I have some unfinished business with him,” the blonde man answered simply, his gaze dropping down to the man who was trying to recover from this whole traumatic ordeal. “Why are you so interested in all this?” He was referring to how she was attracted to the screams, and how she seemed eager to learn more rather than fearful of what happened. As Kiyoshi looked around the forest again, he pulled his sniper goggles from the belt he had beneath his kimono out and put them on, activating the x-ray vision as well so he could have an earlier warning of anyone approaching. He didn’t know if she was telling the truth or not, so it was better to be safe and sorry.

Almost as soon as he looked around with them he spotted the extra limbs beneath her cloak, and his brows furrowed in confusion. “A few extra arms, huh?”

[Tsubasa Musume]

Kyofu was getting more excited by the second. Something was definitely going on here, and the man in front of her seemed to be getting more and more suspicious. It was almost too delicious, at least, until he pulled out a pair of goggles. Before she could react he had donned the device and peered right into Kyofu's secrets. When he mentioned her arms, the change was instantaneous. Her posture dropped into a low stance, her extra arms wriggling about in their prison as they slid into hidden slots sewn into the cloak to allow all six arms to be freely exposed

"You know, it's not nice to look at what little girls have under their clothes." she muttered out loud, glaring at the man with a scowl that was very unlike the childish smile from before. She almost seemed annoyed, though whether it was the man or the arms bothering her remained unclear. After a moment she let out a quiet growl, considering her options carefully. Being exposed by the goggles was not in her plan, and she had to find a new plan quickly. She brought her arms up in front of her, the lowest pair donned bladed gauntlets while the other pairs were bare. The gauntlets came up in a defensive manner with the elbows facing down and the hand facing up, guarding her face. "Well then, go on. Do what you were going to do to that man. Better make it quick though.." she warned, being purposely vague about why he'd need to be quick.

[Kiyoshi]

Kiyoshi tensed as well when he spotted her dropping into a battle stance, bringing his shining metal flashlight back up near his lips. “Don’t worry, I can only see your skeleton,” he assured her, not wanting the girl to think he was some pervert. He cared too much about other people’s opinions, really. When she told him to continue, one of his brows rose as if asking if she was serious. After a couple of seconds, he merely shrugged. “Alright, then,” he said before finally brought his flute fully to his lips, a fast paced and almost panicked melody following soon after.

The genjutsu master played a melody that induced fear in all who heard it, the girl’s defensive stance not doing much good against sound. It would make her doubt her actions and second guess her plans, if this sudden fear was effective.

[Tsubasa Musume]

Seeing the man bring the instrument to his lips piqued her interest, but the moment the music started to flow she knew something was gravely wrong. She took a step back, but when she did she felt like she might trip, glancing behind herself to see that she was still near enough to the tree to run into it. After a quick smack to the face she turns quickly back to face Kiyoshi, with her back to the trunk defensively, eyes wide and hands now busy with their motions. Was it really the music affecting her like this, she wondered, watching Kiyoshi carefully. It had to be, but how? She couldn't spend time guessing, she was trapped now if she didn't act quickly. Bringing both sets of free hands up she begins forming the seals for Awakened Fears with one and a few random seals with another in order to give the illusion of casting multiple jutsu at a time.

While making quick work of the seals she also begins to roll webbing in her mouth, having heard him mention that it's bones he's able to see with those goggles she can only hope that he wouldn't see the sticky being infused in her mouth. If she was going to get even one shot in, this would be it. If she failed, then she'd be dead. Pressing her back more tightly against the wall, she feels her defending gauntlet arms shiver. She wasn't used to this.. this feeling. Could this be the fear that she sought to instill in others? After a brief hesitation at that thought she focuses her chakra into the Awakened Fears and projects it forward at Kiyoshi.

Chakra remains in the web even after it has left the body for long periods of time.
Limit: Must be of the Kumomusha Clan

[Kiyoshi]

Having heard the melody as well, Chiyo bit down harder on her prey’s shoulder as she tensed, looking around for something that may be amiss. Torak paid closer attention to his surrounding as well, and Takashi started panicking again as he struggled beneath that large ferret. None of this fazed Kiyoshi, however, his eyes remaining on the young girl as she backed into a tree. While he wasn’t quite able to determine what she was creating in her mouth, he was able to spot how her jaw moved, so he was sort of ready for something when she spat out the web at him.

Kiyoshi dodged to the side, running to his left about five meters to avoid the strange substance. He was also keeping an eye out for what those handseals she was forming did, eventually spotting the result. The genjutsu master was able to see dark and menacing figures, laughing as they pointed at the bleeding broken body of someone who looked very much like himself. Fear started to well up in his own chest, his melody fading out for a moment before he snapped himself out of it. The frightful tune was replaced with one that sounded much more triumphant and upbeat, the melody breaking all genjutsu C rank or lower, including the one he had cast himself.

After a short pause he drew the flute away from his lips, sighing in relief. He hadn’t been completely positive that had been an illusion, but after all his experience with them it was a solid guess, considering the person he saw couldn’t possibly be here. “You certainly have guts, girl… An illusion weaver as well?” Kiyoshi sounded much more interested now, focusing more on her and trying to forget the images that had just passed through his mind.

[Tsubasa Musume]

Kyofu was too busy gagging on the substance in her mouth, a bit of leftover webbing from her failed attack that she'd bit down on and got stuck between her teeth while she was still under the effects of Kiyoshi's fear jutsu. The strength of the webbing itself was enough to be annoying without it being infused with chakra, which it was, making it like having steel string stuck in her mouth. A few moments of struggling and spitting later she was ready to converse, albeit with a less polite demeanor.

"I prefer to think of them as thoughts given form, but yes... Genjutsu. H-" she nearly asked how he performed Genjutsu through a musical instrument, but after a little while of slack-jawed calculation she made the connection, "You control sound... you probably use similar techniques to communicate with your animals, don't you? I've heard of sound ninja, but I've never met one before... how... interesting. A form of Genjutsu that all but the deaf are prone to fall to." as she talks she moves around the tree so that if need be she has a means of escape. It was all she could do now, having been so swiftly disarmed. Still, it was something of an honor to force him into breaking his own Gen just to stop her own. He had secrets, deep fears... he had the sort of things Kyofu was always looking to dig up and have fun with.

"I like it, and I like you by relation. Maybe. I still haven't decided if I really like you or if you're just fun to toy with." she said, her smile slowly returning as all but her gloved hands fall limp to her sides, her gauntlets remaining in a defensive position that's more relaxed than before but still meant to be clearly menacing for would-be attackers.

[Kiyoshi]

“Smart, too,” Kiyoshi mused aloud as he watched her changing positions, not too intimidated by her gauntlets since she was so far away and preparing to flee rather than attack. When she mentioned liking him, a chuckle escaped his lips. “You remind me of myself when I first found out how to use genjutsu… And I will warn you, that one I just played is my weakest,” he said, his voice becoming a little more serious at the end as he tried to make it clear that she shouldn’t try ‘toying’ with him too much. The man also wondered if she automatically thought he was from the Sound Village as well, having mentioned him being a sound ninja, but he wasn’t about to mention it aloud.

For a few moments he remained silent, gears turning in his head as he thought of what he should do about all this. When he heard Takashi whimpering again, he looked over at the man and smirked. “It would be a waste if you didn’t build on this potential… Tell me, who has taught you how to manipulate the minds of others?”

[Tsubasa Musume]

"Is that supposed to intimidate me?" Kyofu responded to the mention of potentially more powerful and dangerous Genjutsu. Admittedly, the Genjutsu itself might have instilled fear into her, but she wasn't afraid of Kiyoshi. "I learn what I can from scrolls I... acquire. It's not important. I suppose you could say I teach myself."

She looked down at the man on the ground, the pitiful man who couldn't even defend himself, or at the very least escape while Kiyoshi was busy with Kyofu. It was an embarrassment, to see such weakness in humanity, and at the same time it was what drew Kyofu to the mind. Takashi's fear was paralyzing to the point of being fatal. It was almost amusing to watch the man squirm. "So... what are you doing all the way out here, going after someone so pathetic as this? He can't even fight back, I doubt he attacked you."

[Kiyoshi]

Kiyoshi just smiled at those words, chuckling lowly. Whether she had the mind to be weary of what he was capable or not was up to her, really. Though it seemed that she had figured out he wasn’t much of a threat, not one to target others without being provoked first. And with how she had acted, it was good enough of a reason for that little technique he used, far as he was concerned. The man writhing on the ground wasn’t a strong fighter, Chiyo being more than enough to keep him subdued.

“Not physically, no,” the blonde man muttered, sending a quick glare down towards Takashi. Again he fell silent for a little while, silently contemplating what he should do about all this. One thought kept sticking around his head though, even if it may not be the best of ideas. “You know,” he started slowly, pocketing his flute on the inside of his kimono, “There are ways to train without a scroll, with something like genjutsu only your mind limits what you can do… Well, and your chakra, of course. That may be a bit above your capabilities, though…” He trailed off in thought, rubbing his chin some before speaking once more, sounding quite civil considering they were sort of fighting a few moments ago, “Invisibility, can you achieve it? It’s one of the simpler techniques, I’d say.”

[Tsubasa Musume]

Beyond her capabilities? It was as though he were trying to insult her! Of course, he couldn't know that it actually was beyond her capabilities. She had no idea how to make herself invisible, even if she did have some theories on the subject. "It's not a matter of being invisible, it's.. more that I'd have to make you forget I was there, isn't it?" she frowned, realizing she had just admitted to not knowing the technique.

"I mean, it's not that complicated. I'd just have to use my chakra to pry into your ability to see me, change the way you perceive this space. I just.. haven't looked into the proper handseals." the frown remained for a few moments, "Why, are you going to teach it to me then?"

[Kiyoshi]

Again the genjutsu master smirked; satisfied that she at least understood the basics of genjutsu. “I could,” he mused aloud, glancing her over once more. Some last second debates went on, before he decided that it wouldn’t be too dangerous if he taught her such a simple trick. “There is a thing about handseals though; you may need to use some extra ones until you gain a mastery over your chakra to support the technique. Once you do reach that level, perhaps you’ll understand how your seals affect your chakra as well, and be able to create techniques without the help of any scrolls.”

Kiyoshi wasn’t sure if she would know what he was talking about, but if she understood the concept over time it could possibly assist her studies in the field of illusions. As he finished speaking he held his hands up so she could clearly see what he was doing, performing the simplest invisibility technique that he knew. “With this one you can’t move while using it, but it’s a good place to start,” he explained, his voice still sounding like it was coming from where he had been even though he had faded from view. Soon as he moved to scratch the side of his neck, he faded back into view. Carefully he watched her, to see if she would need any more help than that.

Her eyes never left the spot where Kiyoshi was standing, even when he became invisible to her briefly. It wasn't anything amazing, and she was able to memorize the handseals wit h a single viewing, copying them a step behind Kiyoshi as he performed them, only without the chakra in order to more properly imprint them on her own mind. Such a simple technique, yet one she hadn't come across in her limited studies.

It seemed easy enough, as she repeated the steps, each and every handseal performed precisely with chakra flowing through her in order to project an outward appearance of being invisible to others around her. The field of chakra formed, energy pulsing through Kyofu's body as she attempted to force it into shape, but even after several moments of concentration she only felt drained without any real results, "Well... did it work?"
