(POI) The Uchiha Temple

[hmwavii]

"So I've been told." Odorishi almost muttered to his sister. There was obviously a disdain for their late father, though it was very well matted with respect and skin-deep praise. After all, without Kouketsu, he would not exist. This much he owed him no matter how much he truly hated that bastard.

But there was far more pressing matters to tend to at the moment. "Please, don't stray from the topic on my behalf. I do believe a confrontation was about to unfold before I politely interrupted." Gently, he released his sibling from his grasp and took several steps in retreat. "By all means, continue."

As elegantly as he entered, Odorishi almost seemed to fade out of the scenery the way he glided back. Crouched down low, he watched eagerly. Did either of these supposed heirs truly grasp their father's tekken, or had he become the only being able to take hold of one's true meaning?

[Mikuru Uchiha [~Miko]]

Mikuru was lost within the moment, politics though important was not directly useful in her gaining any sort of control of upper-hand at the moment. Thus personal agenda and happiness prevailed. For the moment she ignored Shin, her attention focused on her beloved brother. She felt saddened when he moved his hand away from her cheek. The resentment for father was amusing to Mikuru but she reckoned that was just how boys were towards their father. It was akin to her resentment of Hinagiku.

Odorishi also brought up a fair point, a confrontation was about to begin. His interuption was just the calm before the storm. How could Uchiha Shin's anger be qwelled so easily? He had a lot of emotions building, akin to flames within the furnace. He needed to release these pent up feelings and Mikuru wanted to test his capacity. Was he worthy of inheriting mother's legacy? Thoughts like that went across her mind, yet she looked to her beloved brother for but a moment.

"How sly of you, Nii-sama. You wish to evaluate both of our strength in comparison to your own."

She cooed softly, just as Shin had done throughout their meeting. Her eyes then focused on Shin. Now that she was presenting herself for whom she was, she decided to make a vow to herself:

"I shall use my own power to prove my stance. Only at the end will I reveal the nature of my eyes."

Her smile soon turned into a grin of amusment. Her lust for battle ever growing. A revival of sorts, as her anger was channeled; focused upon doing one thing.

"Well then Uchiha Shin, why don't you show me the true power of the Uchiha. For you certainly seem to consider yourself above a Hyuuga. If I didn't know any better, I'd almost believe you think yourself a god. Tell me Shin-chan, who are the gods in Uchiha society? Who do you think you represent in the flesh...?"

She eased herself in an alert stance, her lavender hues focused upon the surroundings as opposed to Shin's visage. She knew the strength's of the Sharingan. There would be no eye-contact with the youth from here on out. Instead her chakra would begin to flare, the remnants of the Dark Ki splurging through her coils. Her lavender hues lit up with the Black Chakra.

Watching as the two began to wrap up their moment with one another. The outcast watched in what seemed to be emotionless eyes as he'll view the two known as Odorishi and Mikuru both. How would this shinobi deal well watching the two simply leave him out of a equation that Hinagiku obviously included him in. He was confused, but not broken...but confused and manipulated....fuel to a flame that may devour his humanity in one fell swoop. Focused on the lavender optics of the one who profited most from Kouketsu's pool of genes. Indeed, he was the very son of the Uchiha King. His scarlet optics visible to the twins as he'll await the so called confrontation that Odorishi spoke of. Was it going to be from both siblings avenging their mother and father for Shin's mess ups when he was in power? It did not matter no more as the Uchiha eyes surely burned with the reddish glare ever.

”You question me of the gods within Uchiha Society. Very well, I will tell you...There's three gods that are renown amongst the Uchiha culture. These gods are Amatearsu the goddess of the sun. Second, theres Tsukiyomi the God of the Moon, and last , but not forgotten as your father carried this very title amongst his name. That one being the infamous Susano'o; the god of Seas and Storms...this was who your father embodied in the flesh. The brother of his Anotsu was Tsukiyomi, well that would leave Amaterasu for the next heir, correct? No. There's another god that wasn't mentioned amongst the Uchiha Society and this god was said to have created the three for mentioned gods. That god being none other than Izanagi, The Creator of the three gods. That is where I claim my title...For I'm the god Izanagi....” cooed the Raven haired shinobi as his hands were brought to his chest. Within that movement the young Shinobi had tossed several projectiles towards his opponents in the form of Shurikens, but so thin not visible to the naked eye, were what seem to be strings attached to them. Chest enlarged from a gathering of chakra within his apex.

The Sharingan blaring, and after the preparations had been made, the Uchiha went through several signs were expressed through a rhythmic dance.

With his apex swelling up, the Uchiha began to expel a jet stream of katon towards his opponent as she was awaiting the answers. With the flames coming towards the daughter of Susano'O, the flames of hatred that were exerted came at a blinding speed in five separate balls of destruction subsequently hiding the earlier thrown kunais. The Uchiha's attack stretched across the five meters that were between the two. His next move was already under, way as he'll begin to plot out his battle. The Sharingan active and watching his foe's move awaiting their next movement, to possibly foil her plans if she didn't fall by such a obvious attack.

“This is our fate"

Cooed the Uchiha as I leap back placing a few more meters between me and my sibling. With the battle of fate beginning with his first strike, but it was merely touch on her abilities before going full force.

I am now, Izanagi!

Sharingan (写輪眼 "Copy Wheel Eye,") 3rd Tomoe
Rank: "A"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: An eye containing three tomoe will allow the ninja to see the image of an attacker’s next move from the slightest muscle tension in their body. This prevents wasteful movement and allows the Uchiha clan member to conserve much needed chakra in battle. It allows them to synchronize their movement to strike at an area moments before their opponent is even in that spot, essentially allowing them to strike out and hit their opponent before they're even there. This also opens up a door to more powerful techniques within the third tomoe Sharingan eye.

[Mikuru Uchiha [~Miko]]

[Music: Orochimaru's theme]

Uchiha Shin proceeded to watch the events unfold within Kouketsu and Hinagiku's chambers. He observed the twins interacting, finishing up a moment in time. He was an outsider in this situation, was it jealousy he felt? Their simple actions served to exclude him from the family, from the legacy that their parents had built. Why would his siblings do such a thing? Questions like this served to confuse the Uchiha. Confusion led to frustration; frustration led to anger. It would effectively blind Shin's eyes; despite his optical jutsu. After all, the eyes were but a slave to the heart. The sting of a deadly serpent was at hand. It's fangs reaching deep, oh but it hid behind the face of an angel.

The visage of that "angel" had contorted to a neutral expression. Her form simply awaiting the start of combat. The eldest sibling would explain Uchiha culture, detailing the gods within the society. Susano'o; the title that was achieved by their father was the god of the sea and storms alike. He would attack his enemies relentlessly, never fading until his anger was sated. Tsukiyomi, the god of the moon; a title fitting of their uncle. Which left the last seat upon the Uchiha throne. Amaterasu - The Sun Goddess. Shin explained that despite the obvious logic of the last seat going to one of the heirs, there was indeed other gods.

This served to be the pinnacle of his statement. Izanagi was the creator of the three Uchiha gods. Thus he was the Creator God, unspoken of within the Uchiha doctrine. Oh he certainly had the foolish pride of Uchiha. Declaring himself to be a god! The wise creator no less, Mikuru would have giggled, but alas...her focus was on the expected battle. He ended his speech with the commencing of battle! His weaponry tossed at the daughter of Susano'o himself. Her left hand moved in an instant, grasping the shuriken between each tender digit. As she moved to crouch down, she detected a bit of attachment to the shuriken itself. Thus her left hand was filled with chakra for a brief moment. Her right hand moved to her pouch grasping an object which was almost invisible to the eye; a delicate thread akin to a spider's web. Her hands seemd to dance but the left hand had already charged the projectiles with raiton.

They current moving at the speed of electricity, had used the wires as a medium and thus shocked Shin's tender digits. It'd serve to paralyze the fingers. The shuriken would then be tossed by Mikuru to different angles of the room, forming an unusual pyramid around the Uchiha. Due to the shock of the surprise attack, his hands would not be able to dance through the zodiac for his katon jutsu so soon. It was with this delayed time that the President-Elect performed her own handseals, clasping the final seal before grasping a light bomb.

"Forgive me, Nii-sama."

She uttered as the light bomb was hurled, effectively masking the room in light. She herself had turned away in order to prevent the obvious blinding that would occur but before she did, she ensured the gap would be closed between herself and her elder brother. Alas her position would be masked in a fierce light all the same.

[--Arata]

!

She was very resourceful indeed as she began to move swiftly using some sorcery of her own to strike out at Shin Uchiha. His scarlet optics, taking in the motions that she was utilizing with the control over his projectiles it was tainted with the raiton chakra. While the copy counter functions began to take their place within this battle, the Uchiha was well aware, but then the strangest thing happened. His fingers were jolted with electricity as his fingers went numb, his katon jutsu wouldn't complete it's conjuration. Finding pleasure in her skill so far, he'll now know she held a fighting spirit as fierce as Hinagiku.

Within moments that was when the Uchiha had realized something drastic, those kunais and shurikens that he sent towards her were now inbound on him. Eyes widening with surprise, the Uchiha seemed to give leeway that he was in fact in trouble. That was merely a facade as a log would appear in his wake taking the strikes from his sister. With the sudden change of pace in the battle, there was Shin Uchiha with his eyes covered as he'll reveal himself on the western flank of the heiress. Awaiting for the light to subside he'll open them once more as he'll begin to speak.

”What are you apologizing for...” a voiced echoed as his finger regained their feeling and flipping through the zodiac signs once more. The seals were swift indeed, but what were they for. The Uchiha's chakra resonating about him rapidly. Awaiting for his precious sister to appear in his view once more. The battle had begun,”So tell me Mikuru...do you truly think you deserve the name Amaterasu? If so...why do you disregard using the power that was your birthright this moment within the structure of the Uchiha Temple."

Body Replacement used-
Moved to the right side of where Mikuru was currently at keeping a distance of four meters apart.
Prepped Jutsu,
Joufu Joukei (Warrior's Sight) [80]
Rank: "C", "B", "A", "S"
Skill: TaiJutsu
Effect: A technique where the user is capable of seeing, watching the opponent or opponent's chest area predicting movements that the opponent may do against the user. 
Special: ---
Drawback: The user is only capable of predicting movements one rank below then what they have learned. The user is only capable of predicting movements that are TaiJutsu Based. Any other type of movements can not be predicted. The user is not capable of predicting movements that are considered to be random. These movements are based off of fighting styles such as Drunken Fighting, and Capoeira. Another defect is if the opponent has half more movements then that of the user they will not be capable of predicting.
Description: When a member of the Kurējī Ryuu Hiden is used to random combat, they must first become aware of other styles of combat for a mistake in creating a series of random events may bring the member of the Kurējī Ryuu Hiden int a world of problems. The way this technique works is that the user observes certain points of areas of the opponent's body such as the shoulders, thighs, and hips. Since attacks are focused on these points they are capable of making educational guesses towards points of contact that may occur within these certain points. This type of technique is a study where the user is capable of watching an opponent's movements for a brief moment of time predicting TaiJutsu techniques. When the user first learns this technique they are capable of predicting techniques of "D" Rank capability. When the user learns the "B" Rank version of this technique they are only capable of predicting techniques of "C" Rank capability. When the user learns the "A" Rank version of this technique they are only capable of predicting techniques of "B" Rank capability. When the user learns the "S" Rank version of this technique they are only capable of predicting techniques of "A" Rank capability.
Limit: Taught by a Master, Must go under the Kurējī Ryuu Hiden Discipline

Joufu Maindo (Warrior's Mind) [80]
Rank: "D", "C", "B", "A", "S"
Skill: TaiJutsu
Effect: The Warrior of the Senkou Kensei Kenshiki style within the Kurējī Ryuu Hiden discipline must have an understanding of random movements to better combat against those around him. For that they must be capable of feeling out attacks, seeing an attack before it happens from behind or being flanked before it happens. Depending on the rank of the technique the user is capable of reacting through subconscious mind against attacks against the user in different manners such as being flanked, and from behind. This technique makes the Kurējī Ryuu Hiden discipline fighter incapable of being surprise attacked.
Special: ---
Drawback: The user may only learn this technique by the class that they are. This means that in order to learn the "C" Rank version they must be "C" Class, if they wish to learn the "B" Rank version they must be "B" Class.
Description: A technique where the subconscious mind, where the subconscious body reacts just as they are attacked while flanked or while their back is turn. The body reacts in such a way to where they are capable of withstanding so much. This technique makes it where the Kurējī Ryuu Hiden discipline fighter is incapable of being surprised attacked, a sudden second sense kicks in as their body screams out to them yelling at them telling them to move, duck, dodge or anything else within that manner. Whenever a disciple of Kurējī Ryuu Hiden walks around they act awkward, they are never normal. They seem to be oblivious towards their surroundings but they are always aware, never tense. This works on whenever they are being attacked. This technique however has a major flaw. The user is capable of dodging only whenever the opponent's class is equal or lower to that of the rank of the technique they know. This means that a "D" Class user that knows this technique can not use this against an opponent that is "C" Class or higher. 
Limit: Taught by a Master, Must go under the Kurējī Ryuu Hiden Discipline

[Mikuru Uchiha [~Miko]]

Within moments that was when the Uchiha had realized something drastic, those kunais and shurikens that he sent towards her were now inbound on him. Eyes widening with surprise, the Uchiha seemed to give leeway that he was in fact in trouble. That was merely a facade as a log would appear in his wake taking the strikes from his sister.

"The Sharingan's perceptive abilities are not one to be triffled with Miku. Unfortunately, his reliance on it will be his downfall."

Despite the thought, her neutral expression remained as she began to guide the projectiles about. The shurikens would not bound inward to strike Shin as he predicted. The first downfall to the Sharingan's perception. It could only perceive so many movements at once. It was already outpaced by the multiple projectiles and movements within the room. The kunai that would serve to keep him distracted from the paths that the shuriken were lodging themselves into was the key. Visualize if you will, the rising notes of a powerful organ as actions began to unfurl.

Shin Uchiha; materializing from the substiution jutsu towards the western flank. That very flank was where Odorishi was, albeit placed further back and away from the chaos. The resounding wave of light which washed over the bedroom blocked off the perceptive abilities of the Matured Sharingan, but Shin would be able to hear something despite the blinding light. It was a sole clap, then it was accompanied by several more claps as the light subsided.

He had asked were why she was apologizing, which caused Mikuru's lavender hues to turn to his direction. Her eyes focused upon his lips and body langauge.

"Are you deaf, Uchiha Shin? Your sense of perception fails you despite wielding the Sharingan. Wasn't it clear that I don't consider you as my brother? The only man who deserves my love, the title of Nii-sama is observing us." her right hand extended out to point towards Odorishi. It soon danced, as did her left hand. Before he'd speak, he'd notice that something wasn't quite right. He could not perform any seals! In fact, his body was paralyzed, spare his larynx which would allow him to speak. Depending on if he'd question Mikuru further her or become distracted by the sudden trap that was laid upon him, was up to him. Regardless, if he did question her, the scenario would go as follows:

Mikuru would stand up from her crouched position, her aquamarine tresses bouncing with her sway. She'd retract her extended right hand, letting it hang to her side. Her left hand would be held to the centre of her chest. She simply shook her head, preparing to enlighten the poor Uchiha.

"The title of Amaterasu, the Sun Goddess of Uchiha lore...she is beautiful but as far as I'm concerned; she already existed. Shining down a heavenly light that Susano'o sought after with vigour. Her rays calmed the anger of the sea, parted the storms, and gave birth to a miracle. That miracle stands behind you and before you and...one day you'll realize, it's within you too. Of course, that's assuming it's still within you, cause I certainly can't see it."

Mikuru paused, tilting her head for but a moment. A spider always took care to knit its lair diligently.

"Amaterasu was Hyuuga Hinagiku- The Queen of Uchiha."

Now that the light had fully subsided, his eyes would be able to take a good look around him. The web, no the pyramid that began to take shape was not to ensnare Shin where he stood prior, but to ensnare him should he come close to Susano'o's daughter. The room itself looked like a death trap of ninja-wire, all except the area where her brother took watch. That area was made intentionally clear, now then...

"...Besides, I lack the foolish pride of Uchiha and that's good! After all, how can a half breed hope to bask in this glorious light. The mere fact that Nii-sama and I are on these grounds without being executed, is only due to our mixed genes. As for what I disregard, you assume Uchiha Shin; that I possess the cursed bloodlimit? Sharingan...I don't need it to perceive the world at large. One must rely not upon inherited powers or preconceived notions of superiority. ONE CAN ONLY RELY ON THE POWER WITHIN THEMSELVES! THE POWER THAT THEY CAN OBTAIN WITH THEIR FISTS!"

Her voice elevated in decibels but it was not unsightly, no...it was moving, empowering...

Then the blaring light would shine from her right index finger. Raiton coursed through her body, materializing as a spark which was the size of her fist. She'd hold it out to point at her brother, first it was pointed at his head but no sooner did she aim it for his shoulder. The beam of lightning would slice through the air and penetrate his shoulder. The damage so severe that first degree burns and the numbing of that arm (his right) would be present. At which point only silence would ensue, minus the cries from her brother.

Scenario Two

If she was not able to hear the Uchiha's insight into her linneage, then the dancing strings would reveal themselves once the light subsided. The pyramid was not made to ensare Shin in his previous position, but rather to ensnare him as he came close to the Spider. An eerie sensation could be felt, no...below the monks were playing a choir; practicing for a ceremony perhaps. Yet their tune was menacing, the bite of a snake as it captures it's prey was reflected in the music. The ensnaring binds would be tightened by Mikuru before a devestating blast jolted his hips, burning it with first degree burns and rendering movement of his lower body gone.

"Earlier I believe you called yourself...Izanagi, correct? It amazes me how arrogant the Uchiha are. To think that they can manifest on this earth like a god. Unfortunately Kami-sama, you have not yet awakened to the truth! Ah but I can help you gain power..."

Her form stood there facing her brother, alert as can be yet the aura of the menancing dragon no longer reached her. Instead, he would feel the surge of a menancing chakra.

-Light Bomb

!!!

My movement guided my corrupted path towards where I would think be her respected western flank. Becoming distracted from the blinding light from the Hikari bomb that Mikuru unleashed on my perceptive optics. Closed as my being felt a little shudder running it's course, I'll soon put an end to that shaking. Focused with my scarlet optics locked away a two blind like slabs of skin. My graceful palm sweaty with the instinct to kill. Now the fury within me burned ever so brightly. Her voice echoing out amongst the commotion as I'll seek out the location of her voice. She was a crafty one it seemed, but to no surprise she did inherit the will of her mother and don't forget the heiress of Kouketsu's legacy. Still it tore at him like no other...why was these pathetic feelings bothering him? They weren't his real family...so what was the real problem?

"Are you deaf, Uchiha Shin? Your sense of perception fails you despite wielding the Sharingan. Wasn't it clear that I don't consider you as my brother? The only man who deserves my love, the title of Nii-sama is observing us."

You do not understand anything,” my words trailed off as I realized something was off about the situation. Seeking the answer with the Sharingan, searching for what gave me this uneasy feeling. Then that what it hit me...my body going limp from a an electrical current from this mad woman. Not enough to extract pleasure from listening to my pain, but enough to grasp my attention. My body limp and not usable as they should have...Within moments more sounds that sounded like hands being slapped against one another would disturb my tactful thinking...What harm did it cause? It seemed she had outsmarted me from the jump. Was this the power of Kouketsu's children?

Another revelation coming over me as my vision was shifted in front of me. There she was standing up from her crouched position. Her head shaking in disbelief towards my being. No...it was more than that. That would not stop me from attempting to gather myself for anything threw my way. Looking forth at my body as it would not move with any command that I issued it. I could hear myself screaming within my being at my body to move, sounding pathetic. Here I was claiming that I was the Creator of Gods, Izanagi in the flesh. Yet, I'm here afraid this very moment of losing...I can't stop here...no I can't.

My mind screamed as I was seemingly trapped losing my movement completely. Rendering any aforementioned strategy that came to me. This wasn't the end was it...surely I wouldn't let it all end here. That was when it was revealed the light finally subsiding as my eyes...Man, was it a sight to see. She had worked her sorcery quicker than I expected, but I was merely paralyzed and couldn't move at this time. Her being looking at me as she seemed to open her mouth to speak again.

"The title of Amaterasu, the Sun Goddess of Uchiha lore...she is beautiful but as far as I'm concerned; she already existed. Shining down a heavenly light that Susano'o sought after with vigour. Her rays calmed the anger of the sea, parted the storms, and gave birth to a miracle. That miracle stands behind you and before you and...one day you'll realize, it's within you too. Of course, that's assuming it's still within you, cause I certainly can't see it."

Mikuru paused, tilting her head for but a moment. A spider always took care to knit its lair diligently. 

"Amaterasu was Hyuuga Hinagiku- The Queen of Uchiha."

"...Besides, I lack the foolish pride of Uchiha and that's good! After all, how can a half breed hope to bask in this glorious light. The mere fact that Nii-sama and I are on these grounds without being executed, is only due to our mixed genes. As for what I disregard, you assume Uchiha Shin; that I possess the cursed bloodlimit? Sharingan...I don't need it to perceive the world at large. One must rely not upon inherited powers or preconceived notions of superiority. ONE CAN ONLY RELY ON THE POWER WITHIN THEMSELVES! THE POWER THAT THEY CAN OBTAIN WITH THEIR FISTS!"

!

[/i][/center]

The shock coming over my face in what she had said was rare. Very rare. In all my life there has not been a single person who seen Shin this way besides the late Hinagiku, but to say she was a god amongst Uchiha Society. Foolish! His hatred spewed forth like a dragon reaching out towards her, readying to crush her amongst his colossal grip. Adamant mind and soul were the forerunners fuel to this very being. His mind was absolute, his words were absolute. Now he'll prepare to interrupt her once more. This time it was well needed.

_Theme

”You believe the exact words coming out your mouth. You believe that Hinagiku Hyuuga...I can't even say her name in the same line as our goddess. Never again...Hinagiku was a great woman and leader...but to go as far and say she's Amaterasu. I pity you,” mused my being as I looked at her with such malevolence within my visage. The dragon's rage had returned, but sadly I was in a position where there was only one way to handle it. I awaited her confrontation it seemed inevitable was it not.

“Also if that is what you truly feel is fact. Then, the answer lies within the heart of battle. Perhaps, I can open you eyes some more,” cooed my raven-haired being as I knew there wasn't too much for me to do, but plot a few more moves than she did. This battle would not end so abruptly. After all, it had just begun.

'Move...
Move..
Move.
MOVE
Dammit! Why don't you move?'

[/i][/u][/center]

My body was not responsive at all as I saw the shimmering blue light. That chakra obviously was laced with nothing more than the power of lightning. Eyes focused on her hand as it was getting ready to blast at him. The sharingan could predict what was possibly going to happen, but at this moment he had no counter to it. Seeing the blue ball of lightning await it's target as she aimed it towards my scroll...something within me wanted to express the feelings of despair here, but they were counteracted with something stronger. That being the hatred of the Uchihas that was known throughout their history. After all it was the Dogma of the Uchiha. Then it was released...as it hit his shoulder and began to feel the numbing coursing over my arm. My teeth clinched against one another grinding against my bottoms. I would await the wrath of Kouketsu's daughter. “What do you think you are truly accomplishing here? Do you think you know the truth to everything? Perhaps, you were missing some of this story. I shall prove to you that your train of thought is wrong. I'll defeat you and continue as I have without you two!”[/size][/font][/blockquote]

[Mikuru Uchiha [~Miko]]

Mikuru's magic was starting to take hold of Shin, bewitching him like no other. There were feelings within him that were bubbling, raging, he thought them to be pathetic; yet why did he care so much? Alas, the answer to that would be delayed. His pride continued to blind him from the truth that his sister was trying to reveal. Claiming that she understood nothing, it was easy to ignore his ignorant comments as she attempted to drill the truth home. Now dear viewers, Mikuru did not have a strong grasp on Uchiha mythology, it was not something that she cared for or went into great detail during the brief time she spent with her mother. No, she only cared about stories of her father and mother personally. This closed minded view may seem ignorant, but it allowed for her to see the situation like it was; simple and clean.

Kouketsu had seen the light because of Hinagiku, her good heart shinned rays upon his soul. There was a time he wasn't certain he'd even make it to heaven; but he saw the light of truth before him. It would not have been possible had two women not changed his fate. Unfortunately, behind the scenes the efforts of both women may have been for not. For Unbeknowest to the heirs and heiress, Kouketsu was alive! His hatred building for what Kirigakure and those of his family had done. Did they appreciate nothing of his efforts? Sadly, that appeared to be the case. However preconceptions were not accurate and so he manifested the foolish pride of Uchiha. A pride which was being displayed before Susano'o's daughter.

For a paralyzed man and thus, on the losing side of their skirmish; he had mighty words. The flames that fanned within were manifesting in his very aura. The hatred within him extering from his body. He truly felt that Uchiha was superior to all, denying his own mother as Queen. He even went as far to pity the heiress, stating he could open her eyes more. Said lavender optics simply shifted over to Odorishi, wandering what was going through his mind. His supposed brother had just spat upon the glory of their mother. All for the name of Uchiha, quite frankly it had upset her to no end. This man, had he truly learned nothing from his mother? Lady Mikuru was not as patient as her mother, perhaps not even as patient as her twin. She could only carry on the charrade for so long. If she could not enlighten Shin to his mistakes, then she would have to leave him to his own devices.

For now, she still had strands of patience and thus continued to play her part. Her anger rising even more now. Her lavender optics engulfed in a black chakra, akin to black flames.

"Uchiha, Uchiha, Uchiha...there you go again. Pitying me, the half-breed for uttering things that you think I don't understand. As if your preconceptions and guesses are enough to establish the truth. You who got to spend time with Mother and Father, yet have learned nothing! I claim not to know of your gods and I care not for any blasphemy that I speak. The fact that YOU are within my mother's chambers and deny her the praise she rightfully deserves, you've failed her...Uchiha Shin."

She began her slow descent towards the bound dragon. The ninja wire which kept him in placed slicing into his flesh, cutting off nerve endings to his legs and arms alike. She wanted to make him suffer, only then would he realize his own folly.

"...I am not a patient woman, Uchiha. I'm not even half the woman my mother was, thus I have no interest to claim my mother's throne. Amaterasu will remain dormant forevermore because quite frankly, I've had enough of you and this pathetic clan. Uchiha are all the same; You focus on the trivial, like your gods. Whatever religious laws you have serve to teach you nothing! It is because of them that you lose sight of what's most important! In order to adapt, to flourish like Sakura blossoms, change is needed. Yet it is because of people like you Uchiha, that change is impossible! The fog of ignorance has seized control of your mind, who do you see as your enemy, hmm? Are the Hyuuga your enemy? Jealous of their powers I take it? If you strive to evolve, then you must abandon these foolish regulations."

She sighed now, the saddness and pity that was expressed on her countenance was clear. Yet would the dragon before her finally realize the genjutsu that had ensnared him?

"...Ah well, what does a half-breed like me know, right Kami-sama? No, that's not quite accurate. Izanagi-sama..."

She made a mock bow, insulting his pride as he lay bound and limp.

"Izanagi-sama, if you wish to prove my train of thought is wrong, then you certainly will have to defeat me here and now. However, you will continue to try and fail miserably. The only thing left for you is to run, live pathetically as you cling to what little existence you have left. Then someday when you realize the truth about mother..."

Her grip on the ninja wire tightening now as she squeezed the very air out of his being.

"Come before me, with better eyes than my own."

Slowly he would see the truth about his beloved sister, the whole time she had only praised the Hyuuga. She continued to insult the pride of Uchiha and yet...

Lavender hues would begin to morph, red serving to tint them as her Sharingan revealed itself. In it's glory it was pink, radiating beautifully before the crimson finally caught up, turning them into the eyes of the devil. Three tomoe were visible as they began to rotate furiously.

Should he have caught sight of all this, it'd probably be his last. Mikuru no longer had interest in the fight and turned her back. Her walk seemed slow but it had a powerful stride.

!!!

Was this how it felt to be defeated? I watched with my eyes attentively on the female before me, who chose not to inherit the will of Uchiha. Where was I in this equation? Was my existence nothing more than a obstacle; a stepping stone for Kouketsu's children to overcome? My story now tainted with the humiliation over and over within my life. The losses I've suffered on this path...what was it for? Here I was once more torn and broken. Crushed under her might, but she continued to lecture me. This time my ears took more heed to some of the things she was saying, but was that a right choice. What she was saying...would Hinagiku truly feel that way about him? The idea of having feelings for this family seemed to be far-fetch now.


Listening to her as she continued to merely quench her moment of satisfaction. Who wouldn't after capturing a beast such as this draconic demon before her? This was no mere Wyvern, but one that should not have been toyed with. The motions of my body had begun to move about furiously seeking a way out of this. The adrenaline within me building up as her words of failure came from her mouth. Was she adding salt to a already open wound to the heart? My eyes seemingly filled with rage, sorrow, confusion, wrath, and greed. Here they came like the rain from the heavens themselves. Dropping onto the floor within front of me, I felt powerless understanding that with my power. I wasn't able to obtain anything. Feeling the wire dig deeper into my being as they began to cut through seeping crimson liquid amongst the quarters of Hinagiku...


She was making a mockery of my heritage whilst in the temple. Surely the daughter of Susanoo understood such tomfoolery wasn't going to play well within this haven. My eyes watching her as she continued to level me with speeches after speeches. No words were uttered, but in my mind a thousand could have been devastating to her ears. This wasn't how I expected this battle to go so far, feeling like that same day when I was played by Kouketsu....with my bounty. Foolish Uchiha....that's all she was saying. The foulness within the air was growing and it seemed poisonous to anyone around me. Was this my anger or hatred? Or another source of power I had never felt before.

Music

I would not speak to her as she continued to pry what she thought was truth in me. No longer will I listen to this girl or her beloved brother. I was alone...again. My mind was already used to it before, but now I felt the need to embrace that darkness. My eyes were different than theirs....that was until her's revealed the Sharingan as well. Spinning furiously as she began to walk off. Darkness falling over what I could see...was I dying...Visions of those important to me, those who saw the slight transitions...the madness within me. Giving in to it all there was only one folly of hope and that was given light.




With a invigorating flame raging on within my being, this xeno-form was now expressed deeply. Reverting back to the days of the academy, these wires appeared with nothing more in it's wake. I on the other hand had taken my stance and was ready for my well deserved revenge. Pushing forth, fighting through the pain that was caused by these wires. Tokihaga was drawn within my left dashing forth with at an incredible speed. Pain seering throughout my body causing me to slowly stumble, nothing was muttered....not yet at least. My eyes were now clear...This family was the enemy and I refused to lay down to anyone ever again. This was the the point where I allowed myself to be swallowed into darkness.

My hand came back with Tokihaga as I brought it about towards this female. Within that slash was the blade itself hoping to meet with the target, Miikuru. Within that slash came roaring out several chakra based wind cutters, hoping to inflict the same damage done to him as he'll cringe a bit after striking. Surely with her back turned she would understand the true meaning of it all. After the trike had occurred he felt the pain going within his body, but he ignored all for this one moment. Taking his sword and bringing it down upon the presence of Hinagiku's quarters a eruption of power and strength from the draconic figure rushed outwards as his last words ot her were,”Agh...Don't ever say that to me...What do you know of the... Mangekyo...” Blood was being expelled on the ground, but the Uchiha never quit not once. Something that was well known about him...he may was blinded by truth or maybe another figure was pulling strings....Would this be his last stand?

[Mikuru Uchiha [~Miko]]

The Dragon could not understand when its demise had arrived. The fires within it's furnace would simply burn and burn until there was no source remaining. Seeing such a majestic beast writher in pain, desperately trying to cling to its pride. For some it would be pathetic, for Lady Mikuru...it only filled her heart with sorrow. This is not what she wanted of her family. Her family needed to come under one banner. It needed to become powerful, seeking its own strength. Darkness, it could only fuel ones power for so long before it blinded them to true glory. Anger and rage, hatred...these were not tools that provided eternal strength. They could only leave a warrior in dispar, feeling defeated and broken. Even Mikuru's sheathed blade was able to do damage to the beast for it was not master of its domain. No, the domain was far too clouded and her words could not pierce through it.

Blood fell to the floor of Hinagiku and Kouketsu's chambers. The blood of their adopted son. He received the full rain of Mikuru's assault. Her words stabbing into his core, but the darkness was strong in this one. The beams of truth and light could not break the barrier in his heart. Someone or something was pulling Shin's strings. His ears while listening seemed to become selective, only hearing the insults. Foolish Uchiha indeed, it served to unlock the true power of darkness. This was needed if any light was to return to Shin's heart. Silence ensued from the beast as he quietly listened to his lecturing. Where had his mind wandered off to? Mikuru would find out soon enough. His eyes moved to her own, taking in a sight that was rather shocking for him. He beheld the Sharingan, passed down from his majesty to his daughter. If there was any doubts about the Princess of Uchiha, they could be squashed at that moment.

The darkness that began to fill his eyes, it was a simple daydream, produced by Mikuru's hypnotic gaze. There was one last bit of flame to put out. A xeno-form that lay in slumber deep within her brother. His eyes could only focus on Lady Mikuru's own gaze. His rage filling him with strength that he needed in order to punish his arrogant sister. He thought his eyes were clear but oh how clouded they had become! His mind told him that he should slash at the girls back, make her feel pain. He was so caught up within that vision, that it became an elaborate daydream, masking his vision despite their locked gaze. He utilized clever jutsu from his training, his sword looking to come down and cut down his sister. He would feel the glory of doing just that. Mikuru supposedly being cut down, his eyes would be forced to look down there after. It needed to focus on displaying his power by slamming down to the ground itself. The area effect jutsu was devestating, knocking over the prized possessions of Hinagiku and Kouketsu in its wake.

His final words, they were remembered well. Mikuru who had supposedly been slashed down materialized beside him, shoulder to shoulder. He'd hear the faintest whisper, words meant only for him and darkness would truly overcome him as he was then knocked unconscious.

"My beloved brother, your eyes still cannot see past the illusions of this world. I pray that within the darkness you find the light that mother gave you. It's called love, a feeling which I have for you. Please forgive me..."

Upon collapsing to her feet, she'd look to her brother as the Sharingan deactivated. Hypnosis, truly a fantastic ability. She'd broken into his inner world and portrayed his fantasy...only to shatter it with the sword of truth. The rest was up to him from here on out, if he could not follow the path their father laid out for them, then he would never be reborn as Izanagi. He'd forever be a petty dragon; trying to covert praise in its cove.

Her final act was now to look towards he beloved Nii-sama, it was clear that even though she had the strength to do what was needed, her heart had been damaged. She was indeed more sensitive than he perceived. Perhaps she inherited Hinagiku's good heart but for now, the girl still seemed aligned to the same evil path as her father. Destiny awaited, the conclusion rested with Odorishi.

Sharingan (ŽÊ—ÖŠá "Copy Wheel Eye,") 3rd Tomoe
Rank: "A"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: An eye containing three tomoe will allow the ninja to see the image of an attackerfs next move from the slightest muscle tension in their body. This prevents wasteful movement and allows the Uchiha clan member to conserve much needed chakra in battle. It allows them to synchronize their movement to strike at an area moments before their opponent is even in that spot, essentially allowing them to strike out and hit their opponent before they're even there. This also opens up a door to more powerful techniques within the third tomoe Sharingan eye.
Special: ---
Drawback: The user can not copy techniques which are unique to another bloodline. User must have the Release, or Perception in order to copy the type of Release or Perception they wish to learn. The user is incapable of copying a technique that has specific prerequisites such as another technique is needed first.
Description: Sharingan (ŽÊ—ÖŠá "Copy Wheel Eye") 3rd Tomoe The eyes of the user turns red in color with a black pupil in the middle. Three Tomoe (Comma) appears around the pupil. Each eye gains three Tomoe. At this stage the user is at the peak of power and capabilities of the Sharingan without sacrificing anything. At this stage the user's eye seems somewhat better as they are capable of piercing more into GenJutsus. At this stage they are capable of predicting medium movements, as well as copying medium techniques. When the user first gains the third tomoe the user is capable of seeing through GenJutsus of "A" Rank and under. At this stage the user is capable of predicting medium movements of the user. The user is capable of predicting five movements. At this point the user is capable of copying techniques with greater proficiency. The type of copying does not add into the user's overall Training Points within a Class Level. When a user copies a technique to learn for every regular training point a user gets the user will get two additional training points which is called Sharingan Points. These points allows a user to learn techniques faster, but this affects the user's learning capabilities but not the overall Training Points to raise a Class Level.
Limit: Must be part of the Uchiha clan (‚¤‚¿‚͈ꑰ "Uchiha family"), Must know Sharingan (ŽÊ—ÖŠá "Copy Wheel Eye,") 2nd Tomoe. Only obtainable after three events or interaction missions after obtaining Sharingan (ŽÊ—ÖŠá "Copy Wheel Eye,") 2nd Tomoe

Description: The eye begins to spin as all three black dots spin in a slow hypnotic like state as the effect takes place. This allows the user to suggest something towards the opponent in which they must follow. When the user learns the "A" Rank version of this technique they are capable of making an opponent doing small creations, small things such as falling asleep, moving, within the amount of four rounds, plus one round for every Class the user is higher then "C" Class. When the user learns the "S" rank of this technique they are capable of making those that they hypnotize perform greater feats instead of just moving, falling asleep or anything such as that. The user is capable of making those that they hypnotize to perform harsh tasks such as copying documents. At no time the user is capable of making an opponent perform a technique. The user when learning the "S" rank version is capable of keeping control against an opponent for an amount of six rounds plus every round the user is higher then "B" Class.

Finding myself solemnly lost amongst this commotion that continued, but it was all nothing more than a illusion. Moving as I sought my blade cutting within the flesh of my opponent as the quarters of Hinagiku's were destroyed. There was nothing more than me, myself, and I at this point. Finding nothing in my wake fo destruction...looking about frantically...That was when I heard it behind me a light swish and it was obvious. She did not hesitate in taking my being out. Where did all the strength I had acquired went to? Merely defeated by this child...and in mere moments. The training and preparations that were all accustomed to the way I sought to better myself, now left me alone once again. Where was the love of this so called family? A simple question grooming throughout his mind...

Here I was again in the same position as always. Seeking acceptance from others. Had my path not been destined to follow those of Uchiha heritage. I was left behind my fellow clansmen and was considered pathetic. My mind soaring with endless thoughts and images going through my mind. My heart...losing it's rhythmic touch as it used to beat with pride. Now it merely pounded as it always done, torn and broken I remained standing there when I heard a light swish about the area.

Cue

My eyes widened as I felt the presence of that wretched widow. Hatred within them, but before I could even counter act the deed was done. Her hand meeting the very back of my head, knocking all feeling out of my body. Slowly I felt darkness come over me, but what was met with my ears was more of a shocker. Falling towards the surface of the Uchiha Temple, my ears picked up a word that nearly jolted me back to consciousness...but was it as I heard....did she say..that.

My beloved brother, your eyes still cannot see past the illusions of this world. I pray that within the darkness you find the light that mother gave you. It's called love, a feeling which I have for you. Please forgive me

My world seemingly closing around my being, but it wasn't death clutches that reached out for me. With my body losing it's feel I'll collapse amongst the very marble floor the battle had been waged on. Falling forth, I would recall those last words...but would they reach my ears. One who's heart was blackened with hate. What was the next phase amongst the one known as Uchiha Shin's story...stay tuned....

[hmwavii]

The fight was interesting, to say the least. Talk aside, both these two peoples held impressive strategies and methods of execution. Unfortunately, what the seasons Hyuuga didn't except was for his younger sister to emerge victorious. Clearly, Hinagiku had not thought with her head when she adopted this poor sap; order was not held with sentiment, but strength. It began apparent why the once glorious dynasty now lay in shattered fragments.

"Congratulations on your victory, Mikuru." His voice hardly held the feeling it should. Shin was quite fortunate his defeat was not at the hands of the other twin, otherwise there would be no path of redemption. Failure could only be washed away in death. "I take it you have some agenda for being here in Mizu no Kuni? I highly doubt a President would waste their time here otherwise."

Yes, while he may not have been active in her life until now, he had done his research.

[Mikuru Uchiha [~Miko]]

Mikuru now focused on her twin, the missing half that finally emerged in her life. He congratulated her for the victory but she simply shook her head.

"It was a hollow victory, Nii-sama."

She walked over to the Hyuuga and stood infront of him once more. Her eyebrows raised in interest with his newfound question, no not question, statement. The crimson of her Sharingan left, no longer pushed to its limits it maintained the majestic pink that it held before, the tomoe spinning counter-clockwise. She couldn't help but smirk now, it seemed she wasn't the only one who enjoyed research.

"I do indeed have an agenda, Nii-sama. I've come to enlist Kirigakure as the ninja village that my city will use for missions. They will only serve my country, Kawa no Kuni, their own country, Mizu no Kuni, and of course themselves."

She then turned to look to Shin, commotion from the battle had caused monks to cease their music and proceed to rush towards their master and mistresses chamber. They would rush to the fallen Uchiha's side to get him some aid before looking to the two that remained in the room. Those who did not attend to Shin would approach them cautiously. At least they were cautious until they recognized who they were.

"Master Odorishi, Mistress Mikuru...we have awaited your arrival."

They'd proceed to bow hence forth, Mikuru turning so she could stand by her brother's side and look towards the monks.

"I also came to bridge the gap in our family and learn everything behind our legacy. I didn't expect to find you so soon, this was just my starting point."

She then smiled and nodded towards the monks.

[hmwavii]

So, it seemed the elders of this decrepit temple know their history. It was the work of his parents, no doubt. It sounded just like them - making sure there would be those whom would take care of the pair the moment they arrived 'pon the sacred grounds. But, of course this was of little consequence to Odorishi.

"Is that so?" He spoke to both his sister and the monk simultaneously. Business with his sister, first. "I had those same urges several months ago and sought our mother. I had half a mind to find you after she informed me that you even existed, but I figured you would find your way to me eventually. We are, after all, a single being. It was only natural we would come together one day."

Those pale lavender eyes adjusted to befall the monk. "And what business do you have with us, monk?"

Here within the this darkening void that the Juuichidaime's body continued to fall aimlessly towards a destination not known by him. The beaten body of the one who had fell victim against another of his own blood. Was Shin truly losing his being as he'll continue to fall aimlessly. This feeling was similar to one he had experienced before, but the affects of the battle still lingered clouding any judgments he had. Seemingly falling towards this blackened world that held no true beauties to attain his vision. Shin found himself plummeting further towards the core of this wretched place. Lost he was, but alas he wouldn't give up hope for the legacy had only begun. Feeling betrayed by the family this little place seemed to fit him a lot better than the others did.

Looking around as he'll finally come to a place, as his onyx occuli began to take in the view below him. Seemingly streamed with water all about this area there was nothing, but rather thick columns of Bamboo sticking from this watery surface. Finding himself fighting to land on such a trivial platform, the Uchiha managed to find himself with his feet planted firmly in the ground. This time he'll begin to take in everything that was around him. Wondering where he was at this very moment...Looking over the area, Shin's mind then seemingly began to rush through the plethora of thoughts that had accompanied him. Looking about this unfamiliar territory as Shin began to recall what had happened to him. It came quite apparent that he had lost, but why did all of this feel like a mere dream to the young warrior.

Searching for the answers as he'll begin to leap from bamboo columns to columns awaiting for the answers to find him. That was when he noticed something...within this place it stretched endlessly. Where was he? He couldn't find the answers this very moment, but that was when it hit him. Jumping from the very waters that the pillar of what seemed to be made of bamboo material were several beings. Surrounding the once pride warrior that had studied vigorously within the Uchiha Temple to have all his hopes come crashing down on him. That place had begun to sicken him and now with these added pests coming to him. He'll ready himself, but something strange was going on at this moment. There was something off about this whole situation and regardless, the raven-haired one readied his ground. Not sure whether he wanted to activate his sharingan or not, but in the end. Shin Uchiha was ready to do battle. With the first being showing himself, he seemed to possess something that made the once Mizukage's brow rise in mere shock. Red eyes peering at him as these shadowy figures began to strike out towards him. Was that the Sharingan?

That was when it hit the young warrior, he would have to defend himself against all of these beings looking at him. Immediately, the Uchiha readied himself as they came in low and high with strikes that would truly injure him. Dodging them all with quick and uncanny reflexes, the Uchiha's backwards flip towards another pillar was perfect. With him landing on it and eyes peering forth towards the others. Shin's mouth began to part as he'll mutter one thing...”So this is how it goes?”

Sharingan coming forth within his eyes as the world around him slowly began to crumble. What was going on? Surely it wasn't because of him activating his Sharingan, but alas he'll enter into the fray of battle. Grasping Tokihaga from it's sheathed home, the blade of the Uchiha destroying all that was within him, but they continued to form more and more. The more he slashed the more they formed merely from a flutter of crows. The sharingan then found the source...piercing it away the area was now vanished and the so called phantoms had been abolished from this existence. Indeed, the Uchiha had witnessed phantasm up close and personal.

[Mikuru Uchiha [~Miko]]

"Your father Susano'o-sama expected you to come to this temple someday. As did our Queen, we are supposed to guide you on your next step in life."

The monk was precise in his speech and remained silent until spoken to once more. Mikuru raised her eyebrow in interest, making this her starting point had served to save her lots of time. Her gaze then shifted to her brother, wondering how he felt about the news.

As for Uchiha Shin, he had been moved from the room. He'd need medical care and upon his awakening would end up in Kirigakure no Sato's medical facilities.

OOC: Alright Genbu, since I'm not sure where you'd like to take it from here, we'll have to chat about it first. I'll give NPC control of the monks to you as well.

The memories of old dared to drown me in the screams of past legacies as I trekked the rubble that lay still along the side of the edifice. Stepping lightly across the last threshold that would lead me to the Temple Grounds, an expanse of destruction lay in wait before me. Like massive pillars that were once erect for purpose, every stone seemed to tell a tale all their own. It had been years since I had set foot here, and strangely enough the less than corporeal spirits that wandered the plain sought to halt my advance. But with a brief flicker of my Sharingan Eye, their doubt would be dispelled.

"An eternal nightmare.."

Broken and battered, all that remained was the bone and armor of my kin. I veiled my countenance via the collar around my neck, lips pursed as I merely stood before what once was the massive doors that had once kept intruders at bay. Slipping my hands into my pockets, I took in the sight before me and allowed my thoughts to roam...

Futon: Torihouto
Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Gathering chakra to the users limbs the user gains extremely strong amounts of air underneath them allowing them to float in the air in a sort of flight. When the user is in the air, it resembles walking on water. Altitude can be altered by jumping. However this is not flight as the user can only move up or down however the user can fall and glide.
Special: --
Drawback: Uses up a fair amount of chakra. Dangerous to use in storms. The jutsu makes the user feel weightless which can be nauseating.
Description: The user gathers their chakra to there limbs evoking air to swell around there legs and arms, mainly there feet as they begin to feel weightless. With a large jump they soar into the air and wherever they stop at is where they remain as they float, normally one leg down and one leg curled up in front of them. They can jump again and again to gain higher altitude. To go down, the user merely dives or in better terms makes there feet higher then there head. Although one cannot fly you can straighten your body with your feet slightly higher then your head so the user falls but glides as they do which can gain a few miles before reaching the ground.
Limit: Must have Wind Release.

The damage had been far more severe than what I had remembered. Keeping my pace forward, a silent disdain crept over me as I viewed the dilapidated temple and the massive holes that poked into its sides. To traverse the grounds would prove difficult if I could not find an alternate means of travel. Fortunately, the skies above were no longer inhabited by the likes of our memorable adversaries. I dare not summon the dragon Ekirei to these grounds; I could not appear weak or incapable. Furthermore, this was my task to complete. I would see it through without the aid of those who sought victory through our scarlet eyes. With this in mind, I thought to manipulate the elements and create a channel between myself and the unoccupied skies above. What better way to do this than to summon the power of gaia to my person?

I began by allowing my hands to touch, the pads of my fingers lightly brushing one along the other. I could already feel my form tensing, every muscle and ligament reacting to the summoning of chakra that was to take place very shortly. It was like a faint hum at first, this bond between life's energy and the gale forces that were beginning to awaken. A union was solidified. Slowly but surely, I twisted the air around me and brought it down so that it could engulf my form. Spreading the essence evenly along my limbs, I began to notice a certain weightlessness. The soles of my feet were no longer in touch with the earth. The tips of my toes were inches above the ground, my attire blowing gently as the breeze took to my physicality. I would not lose my focus here, however. This was just the beginning, and I knew such as I attempted maneuvers.

My legs bent at the knee as I commanded the air around me, the chakra dispersed into the atmosphere. A simple launch would carry me skyward, the speed of my ascent somewhat meager in comparison to a bird lifting from the ground. Still, I was able to maintain my position as I brought my right leg upward by a small degree. Bent at the knee afront me, I performed a single front flip. I could notice the shift in the winds once again. Keeping me centered as I began to fall earthward, my form straightened itself out as my arms shot out toward either side of me. Magnificence, indeed. I began to spin slowly in midair, taking in my surroundings again. Those same spirits that had sought to defy me were now watching me from the ground.

They seldom flickered in and out of existence, envious of my chakra and its pattern to mastery the Ninjutsu aspect of a shinobi's training. Still, they would not speak out against their god. Tsukuyomi, they called me. The title rang through my ears as I allowed myself to flip upside down. Bringing my legs toward where my cranium had been, I noticed that I could make a downward motion and bring myself to dive toward the earth. My arms found themselves tucked to my sides as my locks whipped violently in lieu of the speed I had picked up. But before I could reach the spirited hands that stretched before me, I once again maneuvered right side up and planted only the tip of my boot where they could briefly make contact with it. With folded arms, I could only shake my head at the state of these grounds.

My return was long past overdue.
