Zu was at the grass gates ready for the start of his mission it was night time which was the time that Zu wished to start the mission. According to the small piece of paper that he had received he was supposed to be going after some bandits that stole a spear. Now he personally saw it easier to eliminate the bandits rather than bring them back or teach them any sort of lesson that was his plan for the mission.

So Zu was quickly on his way through the forest area. As he was running through the forest he pulled out a scroll and a brush that had already been dripped in some ink. On the scroll Zu drew ten mice on the scroll. Infused in the ink was staining ink that could be tracked. Each one of the mice would shoot out in different directions. The moment one of them found a human or a camp site they were instructed to slam themselves into something splattering the ink against it so Zu could track down the targets.

After about five minutes of waiting a chakra signature was sensed by Zu. One of the mice had found something. The rest of the mice would go to that specific site and mark as many of the bandits as possible so Zu knew what he was up against. By the time he could no sense any more mice three bandits had been marked so he assumed that’s all he was up against. So now Zu headed off towards the three bandits that would be dead soon.

Jutsu used: Choju Giga and Staining Ink

The three bandits had just finished setting up camp for the night and had sat down to enjoy a meal. “Heh how much money do you think we can sell this great spear for?” said one of the three brothers at the table. The oldest brother spoke up now “Atleast 6000 ryo which means we can split it evenly 2000 for everyone. What a great steal this was” All three of them laughed enjoying their evil plotting and the fact that they were going to get paid. Unknowingly they had all been tagged by the quiet yet swift mice.

“Okay now enough fun the Grass Village is bound to send someone after us and we need to be ready for when the ninja come and they will come.” The three brother bandits quickly finished up their dinner and each got to their separate posts waiting for a ninja to show up. Each one of the bandits had a communicator device obviously stolen from a village store. Two of the bandits guarded the camp site while the other one searched the forest as a scout so they wouldn’t get snuck up on by anyone.

According to them their plan was fool proof as they were sure in their abilities but they had yet to meet Zu and his ink creations. The battle would soon start it would be one that Zu would remember unluckily for the other three they would not be alive to tell the tale.

Zu was able to locate the positions of each one of the bandits because of his tracking ink that had been put on the pants of each bandit brother. Zu had gotten closer to the campsite when he could feel one of the brothers with his tracking technique. Soon the man came into view. He took note of what the man was wearing with his M.P.G goggles finding where his weak points were.

Zu quickly formed handseals for one technique. As he finished that technique more handseals followed. During this second set of handseals Zu’s insides were working to create ink from his bodily fluids. From what his M.P.G’s had told him he was fifteen meters away from the man which was close enough to hit him long range with this next technique. Inside Zu’s body the ink was being transformed into a selection of weapons. Mainly kunai and shuriken. From behind a tree he noticed the man stop but didn’t care. He quickly spat out the kunai and shuriken from his hidden spot at the man’s head.

Zoom impact. As the weapons hit the man he gave out a painful cry before falling off the tree to the ground. Unluckily for Zu this alerted the other two bandits of their fallen comrade. The oldest brother told the youngest one to guard the spear and he would deal with the problem.

With his tracking technique he would be able to know exactly where the man was before he knew where he was. Except this time he wanted the man to find him. As the man searched for his fallen brother Zu created an ink clone and stuck highly combustible ink to it to make it a walking bomb. In the mean time the real Zu would deal with the other bandit that was guarding the campsite which was where the spear had to be.

Jutsu used: Ink Snipping, Body Ink Creation, Ink Clone (1 created) and Ink-Black Combustion

As the oldest bandit went out to find his brother he took out his katana. This bandit was a sword master who excelled in both kenjutsu as well as the wazaki style of fighting. Zu was going after the camp site now but kept his mouth open waiting for the correct time to click his teeth. When he felt something strike his clone it would be time.

“You boy what the hell did you do to my brother!?” The man yelled at the clone who was sitting ontop of the dead bandit. The clone looked up at the man sleeply “I killed him just like how I’m going to kill you and the other one for stealing the spear.” The bandit yelled angrily how cocky the boy was and to make matters worse he was sitting on his dead brother this was an outrage in all matters.

The man was surprisingly fast and did a motion that the clone nor Zu had expected. The man shunshined towards the clone with his sword. “Die!” He yelled out into the forest as the sword came in for a stabbing motion for Zu’s chest. The clone made no motion to move out of the way and the sword slid right into the clone.



In the split second that happened many different things happened. The clone first began to revert to its original form ink. As it was doing that the bandit looked surprised and worried that he had made a terrible mistake which he had. As the clone was reverting back to its original form Zu clicked his teeth. The combustible ink that was on the clones back exploded taking out not only the clone and a few trees in the area but the second bandit as well.

“Two down one to go” Zu laughed to himself.

The youngest bandit was about fourteen years old and after hearing the dying scream of his older brothers he was scared shitless. He wasn’t really sure what do and right now he was standing guard hoping it was some kind of trick. He was constantly circling around making sure no one snuck up behind him which he was sure would happen soon. He was also quietly praying for his life to some god or something.

Zu who had arrived at the camp site now watched as some boy continued to spin in a circle as if he would see his assassin which was in fact him. He decided that he could in fact teach this boy a lesson. He had enough blood on his hands for this mission. Forming handseals again he drew in the air this time. What he drew was a rope made out of ink.

Since the boy was trying to pay attention to everything at once it would be very simple for him to capture the boy. Its impossible to pay attention to everything with the same amount of focus. He found the weak point of the boy’s searching and that’s when the ink creation struck. It shot out towards the boy wrapping around his legs and arms immobilizing him. Walking up to him he smiled a little. “Don’t worry your not going to die. Don’t hate me either. Learn from this go home after the technique wears off and make a good life and be happy it was sparred today.” Walking into the tent Zu picked up the spear and went on his way.

Now that his mission was complete he quickly ran off into the woods back to the Grass village to get his award and prize. He was happy that his first mission had gone off so smoothly. He would need to try something harder next time or something with a partner.
