The Reaper's Dojo

[Anarei "Saba" Senjin]

((Part One....Searching for it))
day 1

It is the edge of the capital. though of course Anarei has had no intentions of venturing in that far. Everyone is a buzz through this place about the Chuunun exams coming here this half of the year. With a sigh and her own nerves on edge now, she would check in here to do the maintenance that she needs to.

After a brief stop to purchase a change of clothes, Anarei checked in and went up to the room here. The place is a bit rustic and all, but pretty homey. The Medic is pretty sure that the Chuunin participants might be staying here.

She would quickly wash her hair, getting rid of the the troublesome yellow and return it to it's natural white. This would make her more noticeable, but it really doesn't matter now. She would also change into a pair of black pants and an off the shoulder red shirt and boots to match.

It is a new look and she does turn in for just a tiny bit of sleep.

But when she comes down to breakfast the next day, the place is actually packed full of people. The Medic would have a seat at the bar casually and get a plate as is complimentary with renting a room. A hot meal is a plus to the medic and she welcomes it, picking up a fork and starting to eat.

Suddenly some words grab her attention and she turns as a man walks over and has a seat. "I see you have the scythe. Gonna go train in the Dojo. Good luck in finding the place. That place is so hidden even I couldn't find it."

With a Humph, she would chew down a bite of egg. "So you say you quit with all that power the abilities offer out of your reach. You know power is the only true reason many of us do what we do. If you quit before you get it, what does that make you?"

"You are just some Brat is what you are. I am telling you to give up and do something else." He would be raising his voice and he would throw his drink off the wall.

Drinking this early, he must feel sorry for himself. The medic would reach out and pull her food away. "I will still take my chances and search. Thanks for your concern."

"You should be pregnant and having babies, not worrying about fighting. Get a man you sleeper. I'll be him." The man would start to reach for her, but Anarei would reach past his hand to his chest and use Thunder Hands. The man would jump back in shock, falling to the ground and holding his chest. His heart would be skipping a beat a bit as it struggles to come back into rhythm.

"Still think I should be having babies?" She would slam the shaft of the scythe into the man's private parts. He would fall hunched over and holding the parts that make him male. "I could castrate you now if the mood suit me and you wouldn't be having babies by any woman. Get this Filth out of here before I do decide to do it."

The owner of the hotel would nod to a security guard who just arrived and he would obey, throwing the man out into the street. "Sorry about that. I had no idea he was drinking already." He would see her scythe and smirk. "So you are going to try and find the Reaper's Dojo?"

"I will find it one way or another. I am not one to give up quite so easily." She would continue to eat her breakfast. Though it is slightly cooler now the originally. She should just go kill him for the hell of it. Her plate would switch suddenly and she would look up to see the owner. Her new plate, piping hot. "Oh thank you." She would eat several bites before pausing. "What do you know about this place I am looking for?"

"The Reaper's Dojo in these parts is pretty well hidden. The Grand Master there would take on any student that actually finds the place. I do know it is out in the Lands themselves. But they say the place seems nonexistent to most of the world as a whole. You will have your work cut out for you. But...", he would lower his voice to a whisper, "If you are a ninja, missing or not, you will be safe there for awhile. The place is that well hidden."

Anarei would nod to him and finish her meal. As she is about to pay for her stuff, the man waves it off. "Don't worry about it. I don't tolerate the crap that was done to you. Consider it an apology."

She would salute him casually on her way out and she would head for the gates. It is time to see about what she can do to find this Atlantis style Dojo. It's can't be impossible. She will have to find what she is looking for no matter what it takes.

day 1...X 2

The medic would move with a bit of confidence as she exits the gate. It isn't unusual for her to want something that seems so distant, but what can she say. Power has always been an attraction. And the more she seems to get, the more she also seems to crave. The more she craves, the more she must do to achieve it. It seems to be an endless cycle.

With a sigh she would shove it away. There is the process in finding this dojo that is supposed to be so well hidden that she will be looking for days.

The lands around the capital are immediately fruitless. That makes a curious notion cross Anarei's mind. How difficult will this be? She would begin back to the north and simply work her way back south. That is the best track she can take. Look everywhere and anywhere. Hidden can mean any place under the sun could be an entry point.

The steps become a bit tedious as she moves. Looking to make her way over the wilderness. Any place in the north that has over grown vegetation, she looks through. Any rock formations she would take a closer examination of. This is just little things in an attempt to try and find that place.

So far nothing comes in the day that she searches through and the Medic would camp along the shore line of the Great River that flows through the country. Though she dozes in and out, she still manages to keep track of her surroundings through the night only to begin once again at first light.

[Anarei "Saba" Senjin]

((Part One....Searching for it))
Day 2

The first light comes and the medic opens her eyes. She really doesn't sleep much unless she wares herself out to the point that she breaks. Then she lets her body rest. So at the most she maybe has had a total of three hours sleep. She will make do as always.

The medic would use the scythe in combination with her chakra and catch a single fish for breakfast. Then with simply getting a fire started, she would cook and eat it. With that out of the way and using her water release, she would extinguish the fire as well. It is one of those cases that too much exposure might get her caught and she cannot allow that.

Running her fingers through her hair to comb it for the moment, she would pick up her scythe and move on. this is a long search to find this place. This is a long country and seems to have water everywhere with the focus being the huge river that lays to Anarei's right as she moves down stream.

Again she pulls back foliage and checks in caves and such, all for that entrance that she needs. Even when she comes to this high up rock formation that gives way to a cave, the Medic would climb up to check as well as look inside the cave. Relaxing a moment at the top of the formation, she would look out over the surrounding lands and sigh.

"This is a big place to look and the dojo can be anywhere." Her eyes would move around as she turns. Trying to make out anything in the area that might look like it or look like any sort of pursuit. And it is some sort of pursuit that she hears. With a few hand signs, she would vanish from site with the invisibility technique.

They would pass below the rock formation and the invisible kunoichi would simply listen. The man she racked with her scythe after shocking him yesterday is there as well as another.

"Man, if she shocked you she is obviously more then just some dame with a scythe. You should rethink this. She could just decide to kill you for being stupid."

"Fuck that, she is going to pay for that humiliation." The man seems adamant about finding her no matter what it could cost him.

Wow he knows big words like 'humiliation'. The medic would watch the two men for several minutes, safe from any sort of discovery due to their obvious lack of chakra ability. She would smile to herself at the man's lack of sensibility.

"Where the hell is she?" He would yell it though it does seem like a question. Their passage through the shadow of the rock formation brings the medic's hands through a set of signs.

Suddenly the ground would seem to darken under their feet and the two men would gasp. A claw closes around them as a huge dragon seems to take hold of both. Though really nothing has them, they seem to believe it is real and start screaming. The medic would drop to the ground and release her invisibility. "Will you stop your screaming? You will disturb the wild life. See you woke him up."

The dragon would glare at both men as he restrains them. Occasionally he would snarl at the two. "Oh look, he is hungry." The dragon would pull the jerk from yesterday up to his mouth, his maw opening. The Maw would close over the man that caused Anarei all the trouble earlier and then the man would go limp, his mind in shock, thinking the dragon really did eat him. the other man would end up in the same state and the shadow would drop both to the ground as it dissipates.

The medic would simply turn on her heels and walk away from the whole incident. "Perhaps now you have truly learned your lesson. Don't fuck with a kunoichi who has things to do." She would walk away and leave both there. After awhile they will probably wake up, but for now they are out of her hair.

"Back to my search."

[Anarei "Saba" Senjin]

((Part One....Searching for it))
Day 2....X 2

The men left behind now, she continues on with her search along the shores of the great river that runs through here. It is a long river and just following the shores down one side of this river is taking most of the day.

There is the usual, large patches of vegetation and formations through out. All places basically big enough to hide the entrance to the dojo she wishes to find. A dojo that will no doubt be a dark and mysterious type set up due to what they call the fighting style and no doubt the ranks would coincide with all of that.

It is enough of a thought to send chills up the woman's spine. The thought of training in such a place though also keeps her going. The darkness that seems to be growing inside the woman like a cancer is all consuming in it's desire. Power, no matter what power that might be why not pursue it. Why not embrace it and become stronger. Oh sure this pursuit of the Reaper's Dojo is only the beginning. She has a lot of things she would need to do to make herself far greater.

The woods would break in some places and density in others. All things that hold the medic alert due to these would be places for ambush if someone were to hide there, but she finds none. This is some relief to the woman as she ventures on, though still checking each and every denseification for a possible entrance. As it is, she still finds none and this seems to be maddening on the young lady.

Of course Anarei does have a temper, though as always she breathes through the distress and simply keeps going. That is how she has always handled her anger. But for how long can she continue to keep her mind in check. That is what she has to keep asking herself as she slowly seems to be descending into some state of chaos and dark growth on a mental level.

A small thought crosses her mind about it and she quickly tucks it away......

[Anarei "Saba" Senjin]

((Part One....Searching for it))
Day 3

The morning comes but the kunoichi has not slept a wink. She has been searching all through the night in order to find this dojo and it is really starting to ware on her some. Her eyes would appear dark now from her all together lack of sleep and she is sore a bit as well still from the night before. This simply because of who she is and what she has been up to before a night of searching. Training again.

All in all a Master might like her. A student that truly doesn't worry about her well being and would rest only when directed to do so because of her own personal drive.

As it is, the night was fruitless. She hasn't found a single clue as to where this dojo is. It makes for an irritation. The only place she hasn't really checked is the....waterways themselves. That could take a few days too.

Returning to the southern most tip of the country, the maiden medic will begin to search again. This time she will begin to search water ways for hidden exits as well as unknown islands in said lakes. There has to be a clue somewhere that could help her here. All she seems to know is that it is a place where Reapers train. So what if there is something she is missing?

She would make her way along the shores of a small stream and find nothing. So the lady continues to track up hill toward what could be for her a possible goal. From south to north is her goal to find it this time. Search the obvious was the land search, now she will search the least likely. From there perhaps if she still doesn't find it, perhaps the impossible.

The girl quickly shakes it off and sighs. "This better be fully worth the trouble." She would trek on, headed toward what she hopes would be another step toward what she is wanting. The chance to make herself capable of fighting so that she has some protection and can do whatever her heart desires...more power to achieve.

It is unknown to the woman why power is what she craves, but it is certainly better then dealing with people that don't get it.

[Anarei "Saba" Senjin]

((Part One....Searching for it))
Day 3... X 2

The day seems all to quiet as she stalks along through a few unknown type locations. There is much over growth even though some trees look as though they are dying or are soon to die. It is just one of those places that would creep someone out. But not Saba. How could anything do that now when she is looking for one step that would make her life a bit more tolerant and survivable.

The Will of Kronus skill was offered to the medic several times, but it is not something that she even wishes to bring about. Such strength is a fools errand when the mind can out think the body. She has even seen the weakness in those that use the gates. They push themselves to a breaking point and don't take it under consideration if they should or not. The best way to beat one, simply stay alive and let them break. For the medic, that would not be such a hard venture.

Finally the fatigue of no sleep the day before has finally started to take it's toll on the young woman. Some sleep would be needed no matter what if she is going to continue. So basically, Anarei needs a hiding place to relax awhile. Though this does pause her search, this doesn't end her search.

It does cause her to slow down however as she pulls back curtains of vegetation as she moves along. If She comes across an area capable of hiding a person, she will stop there awhile. It isn't until a small waterfall that she finds her place of rest. The Medic would take her place behind the waterfall and curl up into a ball. Her newly purchased Scythe close to her, but it is here that she allows herself to doze off.

As she awakens, she finds herself in the twilight of the day. Night is coming and so is some chill. The medic would rise and depart, returning to the road to search for her destination that she desires most.

((Part One....Searching for it))
Day 4

The medic would be at a loss now. Sitting on a rock over looking the great river here and seeming to be at wits end, perhaps this place is like Atlantis. Perhaps the dojo got wiped out and it just doesn't exist. But if that is the case really, how come people know it is out here? They just don't know where but they are sure of themselves it is here. There has to be something that the maiden medic is missing out on and can't seem to grasp. If she abandons the search here she will never know the answer to what it is she is looking for. So for this reason, she will continue to search.

Her Scythe lays beside her on this rock she is perched on and her mind is lost in thought, her arms folded before her and her white hair laying on those. "Where can this place be, seriously? Checked the ground, checked behind foliage, waterfalls, along the water....the couldn't could they? Is it possible to..." She would jump off that rock and send herself into the water with a splash. Is it possible to put a dojo in the water? How could they do that?

Now the medic has a renewed vigor to finding what she wants with her current revelations on the subject. She pushes off her heel and swims outward a few yards, looking around at the surroundings, but finds herself surfacing all too quickly. In fact, too quickly to do any real searching. This is a problem and she will now have to remedy it. There is an underwater breathing technique. But it would be too traumatic to use in such a busy river to figure it out. She will have to find a less traumatic location to learn this in.

She would exit the rive and head to a small lake close by. More of a pond perhaps, but deep enough that she can actually figure out something new to aid he her search.

((Part One....Searching for it))
Day 4
Training to continue the search

SPOILER: Click to show

Suichuu (Underwater)
Rank: D
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows the user stay underwater for some time.
Difficulty Class
D Rank Difficulty Class - 20 minutes
C Rank Difficulty Class - 40 minutes
B Rank Difficulty Class - 80 minutes
A Rank Difficulty Class - 120 minutes
S Rank Difficulty Class - 180 minutes

Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: After returning to surface the user must rest half of the time used underwater. As example, if the user has stayed under for 20 minutes, he’ll have to rest 10 minutes before the jutsu can be used again.
Description: Simple technique used by channeling chakra to mouth, lungs, ears and eyes. With chakra moved to mouth and lungs the user gathers air from the water and is able breath underwater, chakra guided to ears protects from the aching caused by pressure, lenses of chakra protecting eyes work like swim goggles.
Limit: Anyone can learn it, the technique doesn’t even need a scroll, smart ninjas should be able to figure out the process on their own.

The medic would exit the water and sigh. To search the water it would take some time. There is plenty of water here for her to search and in order to find it she needs to have a certain technique that she has actually never thought of this technique before but the whole concept seems easy. Able to breath underwater. That would defiantly allow her to get back to the search in question.

Chakra again is the mediator here. To focus it to her lips, eyes, lungs, and ears. That would take some doing since spiring waters are still pretty cool. Snow run off and such. She would have to focus through that. Because if this dojo is underwater, she defiantly needs this to find it. Standing finally beside this small lake, she would stake her Scythe down in line with a tree.

Taking off her belts, she would hide them as well. No sense in ruining the pills that she carries. Then she would step into the water. Though there is a small getting used to it process. She would submerge herself briefly, and then pop back up. All to help her past the initial shot of the water's feel. It isn't quite as cold as she originally thought it would be. That is a plus. Finally after a few moments, she would take a breath and submerge completely.

Swimming down about five feet, almost dolphin like in her approach, she would settle upon the bottom. Focusing her chakra as she descends, she would focus on her mouth, lung, ears, and eyes. Settling there a moment, she would quickly have to resurface, almost gasping as she does so. As she pops above the surface, she would gasp and cough. "OK, better breath this time."

She would take a few breathes and then submerge again. This time she would descend to the floor of the lake and sit there, her hands upon a rock to assist in keeping her there. The focus is to those extremities again. The Medic's lungs don't hurt this time. Instead they actually are taking the lack of normal air in stride.

Slowly her eyes would open up again and look around at all the life around her. A snake swimming past, a few turtles eating the tiny fish in this lake. Underwater is actually a bit majestic for the medic. The life present to her and also... the death. A Large predator moves along through the water, eating the turtles. A Crocodile of Sorts she guesses.

Keeping her calm, she would watch him as he goes from one to the other, snapping his jaws around them. If he notices Anarei, he could try and eat her. She would keep her eyes upon him and as he moves toward her, she would concentrate on her palm as she moves back. Her hand would light up into the Killing Hands Jutsu and place a palm on the head as she evades. The Crocodile suddenly stops, her brain affected by her technique and he dies.

The young woman pushes off his corpse and returns to the surface. The sky looks as though the day moved on without her. Just how long was she down. Returning to her stuff, she would look up and judge it is over an hour later. "Wow, handy."

Day 4... X 3

The medic would get back to business at hand. She needs to find this dojo so she can get to work on building her future. That is the goal. This damn dojo is only the short run. The girl would wait the forty minutes before moving on in her chance at investigating rivers. The pond was a bust. There is no nothing here that she can actually look into. She gets up as she rests her lungs and heads to the next closest water way.

This brings her unto the river that actually gives this place it's name. A trek that could very well take awhile. She would look over the river as her breathing returns to normal. "OK, South and maybe go north from there."

She would step forward and slip into the water. The Under Water Breathing technique would come into play as she dives in and searches. Her head would be on a swivel as she swims along. Her Scythe and white hair seem to be draped back behind her as she swims along. The advantage of the technique is that she searches this huge river for the over an hour before she has to resurface.

Once she does, she sees where she is. A whole 80 minutes down stream from where she was. Almost to the mouth of the river where it meets the sea. She would sit calmly and catch her breath as she waits. And when forty minutes had past and her breathing slows back into a slower pace, she would begin to walk back to where she went down originally.

The path would take her back down into the water and her searching up stream instead of down. This would go on for most of the day, searching over the great river, the biggest water way for the entrance. However this would be fruitless now. She would make a fire as the sun sets and dry herself in the heat of it. Even ringing out the water from her clothes.

[Anarei "Saba" Senjin]

((Part One....Searching for it))
Day 5

That ever elusive morning comes. The world seems to pass from one day to the next. And that is what annoys this woman more so then anything. She has been through about six water ways. How many more must she? How many more can it possibly take before she is able to set foot within this dojo and begin some semblance of training in this art.

The medic would walk along in silence despite the mosquitoes that want to bite her, the bug that buzz around her. This particular water way that she has just left was particularly disgusting.

Carefully at this water way she comes to, she would ring her clothes out and casually wash them out. The area is clear to her right now from every one as she hangs her clothes up and sits with nothing on for a few minutes but her under garments. Using her wind release for simply a few moments, the medic would generate just enough to dry her clothes for the moment. It is only a matter of time before she will be back in the water of this very next water way, but not before the sun comes up. No more night diving. If it wasn't for the medic's skill, she probably would have made herself sick by now.

The medic would slowly slip her clothes back on after the drying process and get ready to start again. That is what she has done here over and over. Dry the clothes just enough only to get them messed up once again. At least she doesn't smell like the last one. Muck covered and germ infested.

She would step toward the one before her and with a simple push of her heel she would swim away from the shoreline and submerge herself. Vanishing from site.

The world below her would become a watery picture of beauty as she swims along, taking in every detail. The focus to her mouth, lung, eye, and ears are in play with the underwater breathing technique. Slowly she would seem to move, but her plight would have her covering all distances as she makes her way along tower that inevitable path to exploring the lake. First around the outer edges and slowly making her way inward.

This is perhaps the second largest place that she will explore. The river took the most time and actually feeds this point on the far side. It is there that she will hit last. Until then she would fish around on this side and look for things out of the ordinary.

[Anarei "Saba" Senjin]

((Part One....Searching for it))
Day Five ... Road's End

The water way seems to come close to the River and then end. Nothing out of the ordinary. No place hidden and with that the medic swims into the river itself before surfacing. The irritation of not finding this place is actually starting to take it's toll on the young woman. This is becoming a massive chore in itself.

The woman would leave the water and begin a slow trek to the one place she hasn't looked in yet. A large lake just up stream by a few hundred yards. The walk is a slow one due to having to recharge the ability to use the Under water breathing technique and get her breathing back to normal. The lake up a head would be her last shot at this. If It doesn't work she might abandon the idea all together.

At the river, she doesn't stop her movements. The medic simply moves forward as if walking and as she hits the water and submerges she has activated the Under Water Breathing Technique. Swimming out to the lower half of this relatively deep lake.

Again she will start on the opposite side from the river. Her pace would be casual, looking and touching some things as she pushes herself along to the other side. Though it is in this particular swim that the medic begins to see things she never noticed before. There is a lot of red under this water. Of course there was in other lakes near here, but patterns exist here.

Stopping in her path, she would look down upon it all. The image seems to come clear to her as she stares at it. Kind of in the appearance of a Frog, red and it looks to be circling something. How often does someone actually see something like this on the ground. It is like a clue. A major clue to look for in this search, especially for some one to craft water muck to look like this. She would swim down to the muck and touch it, but nothing happens and nothing under it.

The medic would continue on half way through the search of the river when she would notice her air getting short and she has a need to surface. Pulling herself up to the surface, she would have a seat on the shore to wait for several minutes. Her lungs are a bit sore from what she has had to do, but she has to find it. That is all there is to it and all she must really seek out to do.

For forty minutes, the medic would lay back and watch the clouds go by. Though it is also one of those things that has her fall asleep on the shore from sunning herself as well. The day seems to pass her by as she lays there, a death grip on her scythe.

Though she isn't alone all that long. Someone approaches her, the man from before. Perhaps he should have gotten the point by now not to trouble the girl. But this is the end of things you see, where the line is drawn. Her hands would reach as his come around her throat. The medic would snap awake and gasp. Perhaps he misjudged her. The reaction kicks in, though not with the usual thunder hands that she is quick to use. Her hands would not grab his either. But Her hands would however come withing a few centimeters of his chest and a strange purple glow would surround those hands, extending six inches all the way around from her hands. His eyes widen as some pain shoots through him and his organs begin to shut down.

A hand gripping to her scythe would help her with leverage to get him off. Then she would actually bring the blade from the scythe across his chest. He dies just like that.

Using the animation technique, she picks him up and moves his some distance away from the lake and dumps him in the main river to be dealt with.

After several more minutes, she makes her attempt again to finish scanning the bottom of this lake for a possible entrance. Her submersion and technique would have her nearing this place where the two meet, but what she sees out of the corner of her her eye makes her turn toward it. Something and it is swimming. What the hell is that? A frog?

[Anarei "Saba" Senjin]

((Part One....Searching for it))
Day 5

A Frog. Here? This makes the medic completely puzzled. Seeing the plant type version of the frog doing something and then then actually seeing the little thing doing it. It is obviously a clue to be followed. However there seems to be nothing that he is swimming around either. This seems oddly important and she heads toward it while swimming.

As she reaches the swimming amphibian, her hand would reach out toward it, only causing it to speed up out of her reach. A bit puzzled, she would stay where she is as the little creature swims around and back to her and pass her by again. This little thing is a bit of an interesting thing.

As it passes her by a second time there, the medic would reach out and touch the thing, however it would let her touch but also speed up and out of her grasp again. So I can't reach out and simply grab it. That Amphibian won't allow that. So what do I do, maybe follow him.

The medic would wait until he passes again and then push off to follow him. She would swim his path while keeping him where she can see him. The path follows about a ten meter diameter. The distance is nothing to her as she still has several minutes before her technique begins to fail.

The lady would stop after a round and watch the frog. It doesn't deviate unless the medic reaches out for him, then he speeds up. But now she looks around and try to measure out what to do. The woman would reach out to the frog and it speeds up again. As it would come back around to her, the young lady would push off and follow the amphibian again. This time she would wait until she was back where they started and reach for the thing. A missed grab.

Again she would push off along side the frog. Swimming with him as she makes the circle around his supposed set track. But as they get back to the beginning this time, she would reach out and actually catch hold of the creature.

The thing's track would turn and start toward the center. The pressure would grow as it pulls her further and further in and there would be a light of some sort and then she would be gone from the water.

The Amphibian would go back to his track in his swim, no sign of the medic or if anyone was here....

Search end....

[Deleted]

The area had become sort of, a watery area. It seemed that Kouketsu was lost on his way to the mist country. Suddenly, a sound was heard in the old man's left ear. Someone was near. Sonar was emitted from amidst the mans body, and he spotted a person within the water. Drawing both of his shields and placing them on his arms, he would ask quickly, with a stern voice.

"You! Come out of the water now! Or face my wrath!"

Kouketsu always thought the worst when it came to strangers, this could easily be solved non-violently, but he was taking no chances.

[Anarei "Saba" Senjin]

((Part Two....The gate))

The last thought like a page in a book as the water pretty much vanished before her as she fell down what would seem like a hill. Someone yelling toward her. Well she would acknowledge him if not for the suddenness of the change in her scenery.

Almost like some wild river ride a path opened up and she was pulled down it. All of a five second drop, and a loud thud, slamming the medic unto an already bruised back. A gasp is all that is managed and her her hits right after. Not sure what happened, her arms would wrap around her head a moment as she would gradually begin to set up. "Damn that hurt", she would say through clenched teeth as her eyes would begin to focus on what little light is available.

The first thing she notices is the ungodly huge pile of bone all down one side of the room and also the corps smell as well. The black walls would also stand out to the woman as she focuses healing hands unto her own back, what little she can actually reach of it. Her eyes continue to scan the surroundings and take mental notes. "No know visible way out of here. Unless those skulls have a purpose", she would look upon the six skulls embedded in bone to her left now. "Reapers take souls right", she would mumbles as stops her technique and stands.

Also the fact that there is no water droplets and the distance that she fell, there could be a huge layer of rock above her that she cannot see.

Tired of games and worry, Anarei steps forward to the skulls to better examine them inside this prison she now stands within.

[Deleted]

Suddenly, she disappeared. Was she in trouble? Did she drown? There was only one way to find out. He placed his shields on his back, and dove into the water. Looking about, he could see nothing. It was as if she had disappeared into thin air. He kicked his sonar on again. This time he sensed no person, but a... frog? His sonar was boggled up in a weird position around this frog. Was there a cave around it? Kouketsu simply watched it for a minute, as he focused on his sonar. The frog swam in a perfect circle. The little red creature was circling something, and did it perfectly. This place was quite the weird area. This frog has to have something to do with why this girl disappeared. The sonar was so boggled up within the circle that it was swimming around, it had to be something... The old bear of a man decided to attempt to catch it. He jumped after it but missed, and chased it around the circle. Just as he made it a full ways around, he caught it. The next thing he knew, he had fallen on a bone, and landed in an area, creating a very loud crash from the weight of his shields and his body. Getting up and looking around, he could see many skulls, and the girl. He had found her.

"Are you alright...?"

Kouketsu said, cautiously.

The woman would look up as a loud crash could be heard. This must have been the person who yelled to and judging by the band she sees, Waterfall. She could get defensive with the man, or she could keep her cool and play things out. She has been using an Alias so not to arouse much suspicion upon herself, she might as well continue.

"Other then some bruises from the fall, I guess I'm alright. You took it better then I did it seems." Her eyes would lock up on the wall again and the skulls. "If there is a way for you to get out, why don't you go a head and take it. I mean my entry was intentional. I'm not truely sure about yours. It is the entry way to a dojo you see and I have been looking for this place for almost a week."

The maiden type would push on, pull, touch, and carefully look at the skulls, but still nothing would happen. As she steps back from one though, she nearly trips on a plate. A quick look and she would nod, "So I place something on the plates in front of the skulls? Ok."

A grin flew across Kouketsu's face. A dojo? It seemed as if the only clear way back, was to go forward. As she stumbled over a plate, the steel man thought it best to attempt brute force. Walking up to the large gate, he began to focus his chakra. The muscles in his right arm began to tense up, as he threw it at the door. This punch was strong enough to break mountains, and cause the strongest of men to fall. As his fist collided with the door, a release of chakra met with it. The noise was extremely loud, but unfortunatly, nothing happened. The blast on the door caused some of the bones from the piles to fly, and a few landed on the plates she was examining.

"Curious.... Perhaps you place the bones on the plates? I see not anything else you could do. This must be a riddle of sorts."

He said to the girl, still keeping his guard up.

The girl would sigh at the obvious that the man stated, but only after he attempted to bash down the door with force. "Plates, skulls, and bone. That is a given." She would step past the man back toward the bone pile. Messing with it a bit, she would pull her Scythe free with one hand and scoop up some bones with the other.

She carries the finger, shin, and few toe bones back with her Scythe. Staking it down right next to the door. "But the question is, what do you do with the bone on the plate?"

The lady would fiddle with the old bones in her hand as she kneels near the first plate. The one on the far left. On the plate itself is old dust and in the shape of a letter. Though one can't see it clearly at all. "Maybe you spell something. A six letter word...six plates, six skulls, maybe?"
