Departure [Travel]

[Nomonai]

Her feet would lead her further from the wind captital after approaching the border to river. There wasn't much to going on except the heat. It only continued to rise for hours as her travel continued. Again and again, she would wonder if it cooled down here without the passing of the sun. Stopping for a brief moment, she took a few sips of water, only to discover that they too needed time too cool. The water in her cantein felt nearly boiled, and she spit it's sour contents on the floor.


Another few hours passed, and the temperature suddenly plumetted. The chill was amazing, but that was why she hated this country. The whether was over all, too extreme. Finally, after a half hour in the cold sands, she made her way into the river country again. Luckily for her, the weather here was more temperate and normal. For that, she was able to navigate much quicker throughout the night. Once she approaced the center, she soon found a small gently flowing river. Here, she started a fire and caught a few fish to eat. Full and content, she rested for a while before continuing her journey.


It was early the next day, maybe 4 in the morning before she awoke. The small size of the river country would make it very easy to pass through. So her feet continued to travel, the click clack or her shoes changing to a plodding sound of crunching leaves. It was still a little cold outside, but only a little. The sun was making a snow announcement for the new day. It probably wouldn't rise for another hour. The sky continued to stay it's deep rich blue color of the night. Her feet suddenly felt rather tired again. Once she approached a deep forest, she decided to rest under a tree. She'd continue once the sun came up.


When she awoke, it was about eight. The sun had been up for maybe an hour or too, and the refreshing rays aided in revitalizing her. Had this still been the wind country, she'd be dying right now. Still, she had to pick up the pace. For the next few hours, her feet continued to plow through crunching leaves as the land was suddenly filled with vast forest. Had she already made to the land of fire? It seemed so, but it migh have been too soon. Her eyes spied a few men off in the distance, near a caravan. She decided to ask where they were.



"Excuse me sir, where we?" She asked the nearest man.


"Well young lady we're in the land of fire. And where might you be heading?" he asked. They appeared to be merchants, but that wasn't of her concern yet. She was here, but now what?

[Tenkai]

You have to go through the minor countries first, before getting to fire. Like River, or Rain to get to leaf. The map is located: here.

[Nomonai]

I rped going through river durring the post too. Unless you think it wasn't enough. But it's in there

Finally, after a half hour in the cold sands, she made her way into the river country again.

[Tenkai]

I mean, one at a time. Like each country traveled per post for next time. T_T

[Nomonai]

[wasn't aware that was a rule, but I'll be sure to do so next time]


"Where are you from anyway miss?" the man would ask.

After obseving them for a second, she replied, "I'm from moyoushi. I'm simply traveling at the moment. Where's your caravan head sir?"


The man simply steared at her questioningly. What was she doin't out here anyway? Most moyoushi citizens simply stayed in moyoushi. "We're going to land of thunder child. What is your name? "



After introducing herself as Nomonai, the conversation continued for five minutes, until she convinced the merchants to take her to thunder with them. Overall, they didn't want want some girl walking alone in what was otherwise a strange land. They said after they went to cloud, they swing back around the river country sense they also had bussiness there too. So with that, Reuna climbed on board and slept in the back of the merchants caravan as it traveled throught the land.


:::FLASH BACK:::::::::::

Kaze Ya no Jutsu (Wind Arrow Technique)
Rank: "D"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: User is capable of breathing inwards and exerting outwards a large like arrow to pierce into the opponent's body.
Special: User takes in a deep breathe filling their lungs with air.
Drawback: Only one may be created at a time.
Description: The user molds chakra and breathes in. He or she then blows out and an arrow made of wind is shot from the user’s mouth. This arrow may be blocked as it is just a large consumption of wind, however it can not be deflected away. This means that the object must be large in size enough to defend from one against the wind. The size of the arrow is the size of the opponent's mouth with the length of three feet as it can travel up to the distance of twenty meters. This technique is used for short range to stear an opponent away from the user.
Limit: Must have the Wind Release

0/10


Continuing her training, Reuna decided to move on to a wind jutsu. The one she chose was quite basic, the wind arrow technique. It was a relatively weak jutsu, but could be used in a tight situation where a lot of time isn’t at hand. Channeling her chakra, she began to breath in. She made sure to take as deep a breadth as she could, so that when she breathed, or rather blew out again, she could get the massive attack of the proportions she needed. She tried molding it so that it would come out as a large puff, which could be molded and propelled at a high velocity. When she did release, she got a small puff of air without a shape or force to it. Attempting to remedy this, Reuna took a deeper breadth, inhaling for a full three seconds before doing anything else. When she was done, she molded her chakra into her mouth and clenched her lips together. She then began to mold it toward the shape of an arrow. Next, she began to compress it closer together, hardening it somewhat. Whe she finished that, she tilted her head back a little. Concentrating on the target she had already made on one of the trees, she spit outward, allowing her mass of wind to soar. As it went forward, she could see a faint outline in the air. It had a small point to it, but was nearly invisible. This wasn’t helped much the fact that she was in the middle of a forest, but it held no color, or real indication that it was there at all. Still, it was her attack, and she planned to see it through.

Watching her outline of wind, she could tell that it wasn’t quite channeled enough. This became obvious as it collapsed a second later, before making it half way toward her target just twenty feet away. It almost seemed as if it lost its shape and exploded. She had to fix that. Channeling her chakra toward her mouth again, she breathed in. When she released the chakra this time, she got a solid arrow to fly forward. It was still pretty hard to see with the naked eye, but her aim was off. She decided to start practicing on the speed of this technique. Being that it was only d ranked at best, she thought it should be barely fast. However, in order to increase her speed, she had to first condition her mouth for the jutsu through practice. Channeling her chakra repeatedly, along with taking breathes, she did the wind arrow about twelve time. Each time, she tried to take less time on her breathing. At first, she ended up cancelling the technique. But after about fifteen or twenty tries, she cut her time on breathing down to 1 ½ seconds. All she had to do was practice the rest of the jutsu.

Reuna took a few calming breaths she decided to start again. When she did start, she began to channel her chakra toward her mouth. After that, she took a deep breath, and applied the charka to it. She then molded it toward the shape of an arrow and hardened it enough so that it could be shot. Now, a second had just passed, and she aimed and shot at the target in front of her. It was nearly twenty feet away. Being that it was an arrow of wind she was shooting, the shape was barely visible. However, after a few seconds of her arrow traveling, it veered off course. Because of it being made of wind, she shouldn’t have been able to see that it hadn’t it. However, it passed close enough to to graze the tree and leave a small scrap on the side. Starting over, she aimed and centered her mouth in the direction of the tree. When she was properly aimed, she took a deep breath, channeled her charka, and fired. This time, she had readjusted too much and ended up firing the other side of the tree. After another few minutes of practicing her aim, she was atleast hitting the main part of the tree. Still, she hadn’t yet hit her targer which was centered on the tree.

Finally, Reuna began to sharpen her aim. After repeating the process of channeling, molding, and breathing in, Reuna went and fired. Her shot was perfect in its density, it’s velocity, and it’s aim, or so she thought. The wind arrow she had fired had followed the course she’d expected until it reached the tree. Only a few inches from the target, it suddenly drifted upward and hit the tree instead. It had been close at first, but it did miss. For that, she had to go again. Taking an extra few seconds, Reuna shot three more times. The first had hit the same place as the last one she’d shot. The second shot however, hit the target, but just barely. It hit somewhere along the rim. A shot like that might by her a second in battle, but ultimately, it could just as easily cost her the fight or her life. The third shot hit the rim too, though on the opposite side. Reuna decided to take another dozen shots. Her aim increased and got better during those shots, but none actually made a center shot. What had occurred though, is every shot she made was closer to the last. They stopped being so random and hit more in a centralized area. The problem was though, that centralized area was on the left of the target. After another few tries though, one actually hit her target. Then another hit, then another. At last, she missed, though it took a while. To correct this, she began a strict shot of counts to see how long it caused her to miss. At first, she missed in only five shots. But after half an hour had passed, she made atleast thirty shots straight before making a miss. When she checked again, she made forty shots in a row. Satisfied at her progress, Reuna stopped with her training on this jutsu.


:::::End flash back:::


As she slept, the caravan continued to travel over the land of fire for hours. It eventually stopped at the captitol to make a quick bussiness transaction. Still asleep, the caravan continued its travel as the sun overhead began to dimmin.

Traveling further over the land, the merchant caravan continued to pass while the evening became night. Once night set in, the caravan stopped, not quite willing to risk night travel. Camp was set up. Reuna was awoke at this time and helped to do so. A fire was made and things to cook were prepared. Reuna volunteered to cook for them, being that they were kind enough to escort her around. Once the meal was finished and everyone ate, the camp was cleaned and prepared for first watch.


Morning came, and the caravan began to move again. Within a few hours, it made its way into claw. Through here, progress soared through the small country, mostly because the caravan was cautious of the fued between some local clans. Once they neared the border, they stopped to check a map. Everything seemed to be as planned so far. A glance up at the sky revealed it to be mid afternoon.

Seeing as everything was going as planned, the merchant caravan passed into the land of thunder over the course of a few hours. The ride was smooth, much their liking, everything though their pace had slowed with the comming of forest. The road clearly visible though and horses continued the clacking on the dirt path. Soon enough, they made their way into thunder, leaving claw and it's supposed madness behind.


After a few hours of travel in the caravan, Reuna grew tired of ride. She hopped off the back as the caravan continued to travel. A brief sound of scuffling dirt could be heard, but other than that, there was no sound. Her absence wouldn't be noticed for quite some time. Looking around, she was unsure of which way to go, only sure that she'd find a way at some point of time or another.

Just as she thought she managed to meet back up with the caravan of merchants on their way going back to river. Having a preset arrangement, it was at no cost to her to travel with them. Hoping aboard, the journey began again as the hours rolled past. The horse continued to pull the carriage late into the night where the merchants allowed it to stop for the night.


Early the next morning, camp was put away, and managed to roll into the Claw country again. Having left thunder, they hurried along their path to get out of this choatic minor country. They traveled most of the day, and stopped at about mid noon to allow the horses to drink and eat.

Continuing the travel, Reuna glared out overhead as the night sky began to darken once again. Night was approaching, perhpas another few hours. They continued to move the caravan along until the dead of night came. Unfortunately, they were not quite out of claw territory yet. For this, they were cautious. As Reuna slept, she thought she heard some rusting amongst their camp. Turned out, it was only a racoon scavenging through their scraps. After it left, she went back to sleep.


Morning came, it took only a few more hours to make out of claw and into the fire country. This was once more marked by the bright sunny day, in conjunction of vast forested regions. Soon enough, they were in the heart of the fire land again. Reuna decided to nap, and as she did so, the merchants continued to roll on their path.

The travel over the land fire went smoothly while Reuna slept on the back of the merchants caravan. The day was sunny with a crips breeze of freshness. It in fact woke her up so that she could better experience it. The days didn't happen all the time anyway. That's when one of the merchants would begin to talk with her.


"So miss, where are headed anyway?"


"To the river country, my home" she would answer. The merchants had been especially nice to her this whole time, and she'd remember it. In the meantime, she had to find a way to get the kikaichu ritual done. It was rather odd to not have the famous bugs herself but still call herself an aburame at time. Her mother never allowed her to get the ritual, but she'd get it anyway, some how.


The caravan traveled the next two days over the land of fire stopping occasionally while she thought about quietly to herself. She was actually surprised when the merchant in charge tapped her on the should to say that they were there. Climbing off the the back of the caravan, she bid them farewell. Perhpas they'd meet again, but she doubted it.
