Spooky Scary Skeletons (x2)

[dandead10]

As the child was walking on, she had seen some odd phenomenon continuing in the darkness of the night. The dead that roamed endlessly searching the flesh of the living as well as the other monstrosities as she had seen a seven foot zombie fall from the slice of a blade, she had seen a figure dissapear how bizarre. A group of the dead had began to limp torwards her groaning for flesh as she had performed a swift set of handseals. "Doton: Rikujou Kasui Reizu no Jutsu!" She had slammed her hands against the ground as she had remained stationary leaning over.

The ground had rumbled before spiking upward in a cone like formation impaling several of the dead. The corpses fell before her jutsu as they had been impaled by spikes of different sizes and shapes. The jutsu wasn't perfected but it was lethal even to the walking dead. Senshi wasn't amused. She wasn't proud of herself and was just simply moving on performing her duties. How did she never realize these monstrosities the previous years? Her parents never did let her go out much she supposed. That was of no consequence to Senshi now however.

Dashing forward, she had sliced the skull of a zombie with her blade in half before leaping and kicking off a zombies face as a spring board. Dashing forward, she had slashed a zombies head diagnolly from the left side of the head to the right jaw as it's head fell off slowly. The young ten year old had the eyes of a cold killer as her innocence had been vanquished on this night of death and destruction. Flicking the blood off of her katana, she had sheathed it instead taking her two kunai instead from her cloak. She had a village to defend this dark night.

She had held her two blades in the reverse grip as she had leapt stabbing a rather tall corpse in the right eye with her kunai jamming it in puncturing the brain. The corpse fell backwards as Senshi had then pulled the blade out rushing away. Kicking a walking skeleton in the face with a swift kick, the skull would go flying as the child had seen a large puddle of water. "Suiton:Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu." Ten identical doppelgangers of the child had formed from the water as now there was no water remaining.

Each clone had taken their own opponents as majority had drawn their blades to divide the work. It was too easy...too simple...disinteresting. If it had been a normal day, Senshi would have been the shy innocent little girl who didn't know how to react to people. However, all she felt now was cold. Death was something she questioned constantly since the deaths of her parent's. Was she to fear death? Or was she simply meant to end the cycle. Why make life? What was the purpose of existence? She had to honestly ponder this. Each clone had been holding the undead at their own fronts as Senshi was able to relax a little bit more.

Oto Anpurifaia (Sound Amplifier).
Rank: (D), C, B, A, S-rank.
Skill: Ninjutsu.
Effect: Allows the user to increase the range of their songs and or voice.
Special: --
Drawback: --
Description: In order to increase the effectiveness and range of their songs, some flutist have learned how to literally create a buffer around them which increases the potency of sound traveling outward. The user will begin by emitting a thick layer of chakra around them, which will expand around them in a dome-like formation. From here, whatever sound they make will flow through the buffer and increase according to how much chakra is within the buffer (in other words, the learned rank of the technique); this means that within the buffer the sound is normal, however once entering it and exiting it takes a tremendous leap.
D: Ten additional meters.
C: Twenty additional meters.
B: Forty additional meters.
A: Seventy additional meters.
S: One-hundred additional meters.
Limit: Sound Release.

Perhaps there would be some non-mindless undead in the vicinity, these sentinel creatures were always harder to take down for a practitioner of the Taijutsu and Ninjutsu arts, as they were able to strategies and use higher level techniques. However, a Genjutsu master they were the favoured opponent, the boost in strength they received from being able to think was counteracted by the vulnerability to Genjutsu. Throwing the fragment of brain to the ground the youth gave her hand a quick wipe clean on her outfit before lifting the flute back to her lips once more.

She began to play a gentle melody, one that captivated the attention of others, however, this time the notes would reach even further. If one possessed the ability to see souls they would be quick to notice the growth in Yoko’s, the small purple orb grew in size until it completely covered her body: four metres in diameter. The change in soul wavelength gave a visual representation of the technique she was performing, she was, in fact, increasing the range of her musical techniques so that they might cover extra distance and potentially effect more undead creatures.

Needless to say, this process required the constant playing of the flute, so any attempts the boy made at interacting with her would be unanswered. All she could do now was wait and see how many creatures were pulled into her web.

SPOILER: Click to show

Samehada (Shark Skin)
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Focuses chakra into the user's cartilage body, using it to dampen the impact of Taijutsu-based attacks.
Special: Ox, Tiger, Snake, Dragon
Drawback: Only lasts for five turns or five hits, whichever comes first. Only works against melee strikes.
Description: The user's body, which has been altered by the Same no Gishiki, has gained a thin layer of cartilage underneath the user's blueish skin. The user, then, will learn how to use that cartilage in combination with their chakra in order to lessen the impact of melee strikes against them. When the user performs their handseals, channeling chakra into the thin layer underneath the skin, the cartilage there begins to act like a sponge, ready to cushion damage. When the user is hit, the sponge-like manner of the cartilage absorbs a portion of the damage, reducing the damage done to the user significantly
When the user is hit by a "D" Rank attack, the damage is reduced by 40%.
When the user is hit by a "C" Rank attack, the damage is reduced by 30%.
When the user is hit by a "B" Rank attack, the damage is reduced by 20%.
When the user is hit by a "A" Rank attack, the damage is reduced by 10%.
When the user is hit by a "S" Rank attack, the damage is reduced by 0%.

This technique can be re-learned up to four additional times. Each time the technique is re-learned, the duration increases by one turn/one hit, and increases the amount absorbed by the cartilage by 10%.
Limit: Must have Same no Gishiki. Can be learned a total of five times.

His muscles has been feeling a little odd for the past while. It must have been his rapid training with soul shift. He trained it in unconventional ways too. Taking a deep breath in and out. A short brief moment for his body to relax. His body was different to normal people due to his shark clan. More deep breaths in as he looked out for monsters. His chakra seeping into his muscles and cartilage. He could feel a slight twitch as his chakra washed over him. It was an odd but refreshing sensation. He thought he needed to relax first but maybe he needed to strengthen it too.

A few slow moving zombies still roamed about. Running to them to slash them apart with his Benhime. His cartilage tightening up as he ran, as his arms moved,as he attacked. Slowly flexing then releasing. His chakra washing over his cartilage then receding much like the ocean. When things felt tense he would try to relax. But when too loose he tried to toughen it up by attacking more zombies. It was a rather odd way to go about it with back and forth patterns.

Afer slashing another zombie he realized he forgot to answer. He headed over there. Twisted his mid section left to right, right to lrfy. Stretching his body out. Extending his arms and legs out stretching them too. Toughening up his body at the more molecular level. Simple but true. "No Im not afraid. Worried people will get hurt. Im confident in my abilities to not die tonight so Im not scared. Your question makes no sense. A composed person cant be frightened. Yet you implied im not scared and not composed. Its contradictory. I might have said this a little flawed but my point is still there." Continuing his stretchs while talking. Preparing for the oncoming fights.

Phantasm Perception
Rank: "C"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: Jutsu allows the user to perform Phantasm Perceptions.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Phantasms can only be perceived by the user and target, unlike the previous 3 Perceptions. The impression created by a Phantasm exists only in the mind and is personalized for everyone perceiving it. All phantasms are therefore, Mind-Affecting Jutsus. Nightmare is a good example of such a Phantasm. If you want to keep your actions secret from everyone but your subjects, Phantasm is a good choice, whether you want to frighten or to deliver a message.

Behold the power of The Clown! A myriad of hand seals made up the technique, all of which had to be formed in sequential order, so stowing her flute the young maiden set to work. Her fingers danced through the formation, shifting between the zodiac signs in an almost hypnotising manner. The chakra inside her body responded to the changing seals and reciprocated her intent, pouring forth from her chakra points to form a large layer of chakra around her soul.

Upon amassing a considerable amount of chakra the energy began osculating, this change in environment reverberated throughout the air in the vicinity, it to begin to shake at a rapid rate. Perhaps the young man would notice this change, after all, it wasn’t as subtle as the last change, nor was it designed to be. She had formed her technique like this so that she might conjure an illusion on the surrounding area. The style in question was the Phantasm release.

Unlike most of the other basic releases, this class of illusion was not shared throughout a joint conscious link, it did not infect an area with chakra. Instead the techniques focused in general upon a select subject, this, of course, had its advantages namely nobody else in the area was able to tell their ally was under the effects of an illusion, the other being the caster was able to monitor the success of the technique instantly knowing whether it was a success or not.

While their applications were far more limited in scope, they were able to effectively break selective members of a war party, a leader reduced to tears could not command his troops. A samurai crippled by fear could not draw their blade. The applications of the techniques were numerous; the art was even able to cause death as a direct effect of fear: literally scaring someone to death.

Imagine an assassin that could kill someone with their mind, leaving behind no noticeable evidence; you wouldn’t even know they were there, no need for a long range arrow, a large offensive Jutsu, or even the subterfuge required to plant an explosive. The chakra surrounding the girl started to form around the edges, a ghostly white that flickered like a flame. Perhaps the undead in the surrounding area would be attracted to it? That was the intent of the technique after all.

Samehada (again)

"You know since you cant fight the undead well why dont you just leave. You cant clear away enemies as fast as me. Dont you have anything else... Academy newbie" making fun of her smaller kill ratio trying to provoke her to try harder. He stretched some more. His muscles felt stronger now than they did a minute ago. He wanted to continue to strengthen them even further. He also felt the girl houldnt be there. Hopefully his prodding helped push her to do better. His right hand slowly slowly trailed down his left arm. His hand filled with chakra.

He was rubbing his arm then patting it. He did this from to to bottom oh his arm. But he essentialy massaing his cartilage and muscles. Muchly needd. He only did a massage on a small portion then would do a quick flex. The flex was to strengthen and test the massage. Once down with his left arm he did the very same tohis right arm and abs. Showing off his abs of steel to the girl "See just a little effort and you can get super strong and buff too! Though right now im doing stretching to relax myself. So much fighting tonight" further trying to encourage her. Every partpart of his skin even his stomach was ight blue. A constant reminder of his clan.

With final stretches by leaning down and touching his toes. Standing back up right. Ah super relaxed. Best stretch hes every had in a long. Grabbing his sword he took some slashes at zombies. There were so few and so slow he could affford to stand and stretch himself. His movements felt a league stronger too.

‘There is nothing to fear but fear itself’ a rather fitting quote, Yoko felt so at least. After all, she was stimulating the mind of the subject, magnifying an existing fear. If her opponent was immune to fear, then the assault would yield no results at all, as there was nothing to multiply. Just thinking about the possibilities excited her.

To see her foes racked with fear, to see a grown man piss his pants in the middle of the battlefield. Well, could any of the other ninja arts boast such an impressive feat, alone she would be able to cripple entire villages, to reduce clans to nothing, whole arts to dust. While the brutes of the other arts slaved away, she could work from the shadows controlling the real flow of the battlefield, she was to be a god, or so she fantasised at least.

The term GOD was used as a metaphor, rather than a statement of grandeur—it was her intent to have a genjutsu for every situation, she would be able to transform a battlefield at will, buff her allies, debuff her enemies; in short she would be the deciding factor in a battle—or at least that was her perception of what the illusionary styles had to offer. “Aren’t you embarrassed, exposing yourself like that before a lady, how shameless”

[Ms. Midnight Cinderella]

[enter]

Minh, scaled the trees. They were coming. The area was going to become tight soon, and she rather not be in an area that was not good for her. Most of the place was growing dauntingly scare of action for a while which isn't necessarily good with all of this mist around. Minh, left her movements to her own. Where were the other Mist forces? She should have ran into soon by, now. Upon that moment she stopped on a sturdy, tree branch, more than enough to support her. Her back pressed softly against the main parts of this natural installment. 

Her breathing was huffy for a moment, before she could slow herself to a calmed state of mind. Everything was okay right? Of course it was. Mist is always okay. Most don't even dare to come here anyhow. She had been listening out for anything specific but, in the mean time she began to check her equipment. She couldn't grab much, but she had enough to defend herself which was all that was needed.

She had on her usual gear. Strong black leather gloves for hand protection in case she needed to deal with medical issues. Her arms were exposed from, forearms to biceps but, the shoulders were covered up. And on top of that was her dark cerulean full body sports designed suit. Well, some call it a stealth suit.

Others just say its a tight outfit and nothing more, but it is the best Minh can use to stay comfortable while also having room for her water body to move around. Its soaked up anyway, so no issues really. Besides if she needed to remove it there was a zipper that starts from the neck down so she could just slip out anyway. 

Her thin, bo-staff was hoisted on her back diagonally. A belt whom also had the Mist Village symbol on it would be present with several pouches on the left side of her hip was there as well. 5 pouches then 1 Speed Loader Pouch for her senbon. Two pairs of knifes strapped to the sides of her thighs. Two for one side, two for the other. Then of her black heeled shoes of course. So everything checked out. What? Underwear you say? Well uh you see....she's water. Water has no time for undies when you are as fresh as a Hozuki.

So with that, Minh, nodded to herself that she could work with these, and then dropped down to the ground level before running off ahead. Her movement fluid before, she began to notice some bodies ahead. And by that its meant to be live moving bodied. Non decrepit bodes too. Great! She began to pick up the pace. Her eyes narrowing although that doesn't exactly help identify who exactly is picking up in front of her. But never the less she was finding some hope. After this turmoil maybe she could take a dip the the waters, east of here. Get some kind of relaxation going.

Near the bo-staff wielding female shinobi had been the young gennin currently faced with fewer and fewer undead in her path. The dead moaned and groaned as they walked torwards her, but the young child had fortunately been excellent with crowd control ninjutsu. "Doton: Rikujou Kasui Reizu no Jutsu!" Spikes had risen yet again from the ground to impale the dead at her immediate vicinity. Each spike was perfectly seven feet tall and had impaled nearly fifteen walking corpses through their bodies and or heads as the dead would not walk any longer. The few that managed to actually evade had walked torwards her hungrily.

Young Senshi Odayakama had leapt onto one of her spike pillars before drawing her katana quickly slicing a head in half vertically. She had leapt from spike to spike as she had performed the jutsu a second time creating a criss cross of spearhead earth to slaughter the walking corpses in the streets. Senshi had been working by herself all day. She wanted someone to talk to, interact with, be around! The girl had sheathed her blade as she panted and sat on the now large plethora of spikes making a platform. She was done with this job she was sure. She just wanted to relax and train something with someone rather than being alone all the time.

Performing the ram sign, she rested along the earth taking deep breaths. She wanted to become stronger than any other shinobi, but needed the experience to do so. She had trained long and hard for several months and now it was around time she found someone to help her further progress. The amber haired girl had remained quiet for the most part as she focused on resting her small body. She hadn't seen any hidden mist Shinobi yet, so maybe she would find some shortly.

(this isnt training. Im still deciding next tech to train. Rping now to keep the thread flow moving)

A large grin spread wide on Tsuyus face. "You're right it would be pretty shameless to do this in front of a lady. To bad theres not one here" His grin ever so wide as his words took a small jab at the genjutsu user. Holding back his laughter while slicing down another skull bat. Tsuyu figured he should take the opportunity to train yet another move. But what exactly, that he didnt know yet. "Besides I showed you to encourage you. Its not like I showed you my muscles to impress you. Ive been dating somebody for years now;" his voice was so casual as if he were at a park saying that. When in reality he was fighting the undead.His benimhime was getting plenty use tonight as it beheaded a zombie and its head landed in a puddle. Ooh a water move would be good for next.

The Jutsu she had selected was a fear based technique, one that directly affected her opponent’s minds, the idea of the technique was to remove someone from the fight, to plant the seed for techniques to come. She had to start small, so she created a creeping sensation on the subject, the feeling that not everything was as it seemed.

A rather indescribable terror, the feeling that something was watching you, all the hairs on your skin raise up, almost as if something is piercing your body. The best she could hope for was a short term debuff, but whether the opponent was panicked or shaken, it mattered not, after all, the technique required little in the way of chakra and hand seals. It was an important step nevertheless in advancing their terror to what she called ‘stage 2’

Her hands flickered through the seals required for the technique conjuring forth the desired effect, on a creature that had aligned itself with the undead—although it was not dead itself it may have seized upon the opportunity to wreak havoc on the village. The terror soon gripped its body, its moral broke and it suddenly fled the area in a fit of terror.

The technique seemed to have sparked some attention, instead of the slow amble that one normally associated with zombies, there was a figure moving at a rapid pace. The air of playfulness shared between the pair suddenly died off, Yoko shooting the male a short glance that should have informed them of the seriousness of the situation. In a movement as quick as a flash, her right hand transformed into its demon weapon form, a claw. Yoko positioned herself so that she could clearly see the advancing enemy [50 metres], her left foot on top of the corpse of a zombie.

Upright Stance
Rank: "E"
Skill: TaiJutsu
Effect: A Basic upright stance used in boxing.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Picture To adopt an Upright Stance, you should stand with your legs roughly shoulder-width apart. Your back foot should be about half a step behind your front foot. If your dominant boxing hand is your right hand, your left foot will lead. Lift your right heel off the ground by about 3 inches and point both feet inward (although do not exaggerate this movement). If you lift your heel too far off the ground, or turn your feet too far inward, you will become unbalanced. As a test, imagine someone pushing you from any direction. In a properly balanced stance, you should be able to maintain an upright position and not fall to the ground or sway from side to side. To increase the stability of your stance, keep your knees and hips slightly bent but make sure your back is straight. Your lead fist (which will be your left fist if your dominant boxing hand is your right hand) should be positioned vertically at eye level, approximately six inches away from your face. Your right fist should be positioned next to your chin, with your elbow held against your ribcage. This is good defensive positioning and will effectively protect your body. Whilst watching televised boxing matches, you may have noticed the boxers tapping their cheeks with their hands. This repetitive action acts as a reminder to keep fists up at all times and is especially important as the match progresses and energy levels drop. To further protect yourself from blows from your opponent, keep your chin pressed against your chest. Punches to the jaw often cause knock-outs, so it is essential to keep this stance throughout the boxing match.
Limit: Must learn in a gym that teaches Bokushingu (Boxing)

As she made her way on through, she started to take in her surroundings. She's notice the young ninja near her first, fighting of a small platoon of decrepit bogies. She had her eyes trained in on her from where she was, right before she had use had used that Earth Jutsu. It did what it needed to and, Minh appreciated her work ethic. She enjoys relaxing as much as the next person but, good work and constant moves being made to get the job done is important too obviously. 

Her slick long dark brown hair was flowing behind her as the wind slip streamed around her body. She didn't let up in her speed as she would take into account what else was going on. A retreating enemy and, two more living beings, which were opposing them. However, the fact that one of them. A woman, was getting defensive from her presence set her off as she, approached. Minh would, shift her weight behind her, skidding to a sharp halt making a small cloud of dust form up before fading away. 

Minh stood in the midst of all of them, but mostly aligned with the girl with her hand in a claw like form 50 meters away. Immediately, Minh tensed up as her blue eyes sharply trained on her. Her body, held straight and, even if they had an average gap in between them she held up her hands right in front of her. Parallel with each other both, hands in a strong tight fist. Her arms would be there in case she needed to use them.

No slouching permitted what so ever. Her eyes then casually scanned over the man and the girl she saw prior to this. These must be friendlies right? Maybe she was just antsy? Minh wasn't sure. But, she didn't care to be in a stand still either. "Stand down please. This doesn't need to get out of hand you know." She said in a loud and clear voice. She didn't need to say very much. Her sharp teeth clenched rather tightly out of habit. Something didn't feel right to her.

Ever feel like someone is watching you? Well, what if no matter you do you can’t find them, no matter how fast you turn away they are nothing more than a fleeting vision? As you turn the corner to peruse them, they are already gone. As you turn on the light they have already escaped? The sort of terror than many people encounter on a small time basis after watching a horror movie.

Often accompanied by the creaking of old floor boards this type of fear while relatively minor did serve a purpose. Distractions and theatrics were important tools to a ninja, if she was able to force someone to look the other way then she could bypass them, direct force to a stealth shinobi was always foolish. Of course, the distraction would not last for long. So she would have to be very careful when she implemented it.

It briefly occurred to Yoko that she could test this Jutsu out on the newcomer to see her body quiver with fear. Was a perfect day for inducing fear after all; nobody seemed to known when the undead would stop coming, which was a heavy psychological burden to bare. The thought was fleeting, however, as it was probably against the rules to ‘attack’ a fellow ninja in the middle of a crisis, which is no doubt what the higher ups would consider it.

It seemed they had reached a standoff, Yoko carefully eyed the woman, seeking to observe even the smallest of movements. “A friend of yours?” it occurred to Yoko that the presence of a weapon in the middle of a crisis, was not an uncommon sight, perhaps fear had already gripped this budding ninja?

Yoko felt confident enough in her demon weapon skills, to revert her hand back to a human form. Switching between forms took but a moment, so she felt safe in the knowledge that she could change once more if the need arose. “It’s okay, no need to be shy come on over” Obviously aimed at the new arrival.

Atsui Usumaku (Transitional Membrane)
Rank: D, C, B, A
Skill: Ninjutsu, Supplementary
Effect: The user is capable of controlling the thickness of their transitional membrane. This technique is mandatory for all under the Hozuki bloodlimit. This is because it grants them their survival in battles and harsh weather conditions.
Special: ---
Drawback: Switching from ranks that are not next to each other takes 1 post (You cannot instantly switch from D rank thickness to B rank.). One can only switch their rank up or down one time per post.
Description:
During training, the user is capable of adjusting and altering their internal water pressure in their bodies. Doing so results in an increased density of their outer membrane. Chakra released from their nuclei protrusions allows water to be pressurized in a certain way underneath their transitional membrane thus resulting in the thickening and solidification of their skin. In order to switch from a higher rank of thickness to a lower, the user must decrease the amount of chakra released from their nuclei protrusions. Also, the user leaves their palms and the soles of their feet remain permeable (D ranked), thus allowing the usage of the water inside of them no matter what rank their in.

D ranked: Very thin and moist layer of skin. This is the default layer of skin the Hozuki are normally in. Under this rank, the skin is most permeable, meaning they are able to absorb large amounts of water. Although they feel no physical pain, ninjutsu and genjutsu based attacks can affect them. Also, this skin is not suggested for harsh weather conditions. Exceedingly hot or cold weather can evaporate them or freeze them easily..

C ranked: Under this rank, the transitional membrane is a similar thickness to that of the human skin. Can withstand any kind of weather conditions a human could. Since skin is more solidified, physical assaults on a Hozuki are more effective.

B ranked: Under this rank, the water within their bodies is pressurized by chakra to the point in which it resembles a rock like thickness and texture. An Hozuki under this rank becomes stronger when landing physical attacks by half the rank of the attack they are using (a D rank punch gets an extra E rank damage added on). Speed is decreased by half a movement.

A ranked: Under this rank, the water within their bodies are at the highest point of pressurization in which resembles a metal like thickness and texture. An Hozuki under this rank becomes stronger when landing physical attacks by half the rank of the attack they are using. Speed is decreased by a full movement. Limbs are less prone to breaking. This state can only last for 3 posts before going back to D ranked thickness because it consumes a large amount of chakra.

Limit: Must belong to the Hozuki Bloodlimit, No slots are used up. Every Hozuki member begins with the D ranked version of this technique and work their way up.

Minh looked at this individual with a questioning glance. In general she could feel the mist around her very gradually moving around them. Her senses told her so. As average as they were the water was her home at all times. Its way she felt safe most of the time. As for this person in front of her she wouldn't pay this much mind as nothing unnatural was happening yet. That was for sure. She watched as they reverted their hand back to normal. Fair enough. Minh was a woman of equal opportunity. So she eased her stance and, stood straight up at her normal height of 5,10.

Her right hand gently placed on her hip as she observed the people here. Three in total. Two females one male. Nothing important simply keeping mental notes. With this introduction carrying on to different matters she would take it upon herself to accept the invitation warily. Even if these are fellow Mist people she didn't feel like giving her bloodlimit away. So she would sigh shortly before beginning the process of making her way over. 

Using the chakra within her water clad body, she would begin transmitting her synergy with the nucleus. She wanted to ascend to the second stage and, overall that wouldn't take too long. So for the most part it was no issue. Her nucleus would begin to pulse faintly. And through those pulses her the water molecules would become stronger. They would mend together to form a strong base of layers. All in the works of making her body more solid. She could feel herself being a bit more solid around in the mean time. Her body felt less loose and at least more put together. As a whole if one were to touch her she would feel like any other human. Just...a little more moist than one. But there are easy ways to sugarcoat that.

Her strides long but, relaxed as she did this while closing the distance. The fact this technique didn't use handseals it was quite the positive factor. So for the most part, there shouldn't be an issue right? She and the other girl would only be a meter apart now. Minh does like her space after all. "Its not that I am shy. Just don't like getting into messes without knowing what is going on." She would mention. A shot glance at the others before she would speak a little louder so they can hear her next question more clearly just in case. "Are you three the only ones that were here?" She asked not in a stern way. Just general picking at the situation at hand.

Unfortunately, the tension between the parties had yet to subside. Yoko carefully observed the youth’s movements, while honing her own chakra. Specialisation in a particular branch of Justus could have amazing effects, or so Yoko had been told, she had never actually witnessed the feat, in fact, it was far more common to become a jack-of-all-trades. Pausing for a brief moment she considered what the girl in front of her was; what were her special areas?

Anyway, she digressed, returning the majority of her focus back towards the technique as the girl continued her advance, some thirty metres now separating them. Yes, she had heard of a legendary warrior, who possessed no talent at all, not even the ability to mould chakra. In most cultures they would be forced into a life as a civilian, however, through sheer hard will and determination, this ninja became so strong that he was able to face other legends in his own right. The reason for this was his specialisation.

Yoko wanted to experience a similar effect, focusing her time towards the arts of genjutsu so that she might become a master in her own right. She wanted to show the world that they weren’t always a supportive role, hiding in the back of a team, that instead, she could be a Sannin scanning herself, or maybe even a Mizukage. Such a feat was a long way off for her, however.

It was not for a lack of drive, however, as the girl kept diligently refocusing her chakra over and over, with such force that her face was now beginning to turn a rosy shade of red. With such an intense wave of concentration, she was unable to answer the girl for the time being at least. Then all of a sudden her hands sprang into life, a myriad of seals were performed in what seemed to be a split second. She was attempting to subdue the enemy with a wide scale genjutsu.
