Beneath the Green Clock (rp, open)

[rashad202]

After Tiga had Introduced his self to Suno the other ninja was making his way over to them. Tiga just stared at him because he felt like he was kind of weird. Once he was in front of them he announced his name to them and said that he was a master of the water element. Tiga was impressed by this because he his self had not mastered any style of Ninjutsu.

Tiga replied to Suno question of "So What are you guys doing around here?" with "Im just walking back from training and I happen to hear some noise coming from over here so i walked over" After he said that he looked at the girl Kami and waited for her to confirm what suno had said.

[Distance Of Purity]

The ninja with the bulky suit started his introduction.
"My name is Kireme Minamimuki, weapon specialist and water jutsu master." He said with a slight bow. Weapon specialist, and water jutsu master. Kami thought while Kireme glanced up at the clock. This could be kind of fortuitous, since I could use a tutor.
"My name is Suno." The younger ninja said, introducing himself as well. He gave no last name, just as Kami had done. This kid gets more and more interesting. Kami looked him over once while he brushed his feet in the wet grass.

"So What are you guys doing around here?" Suno asked Kami and Tiga. "I was simply taking a walk, If i remember right, Kireme couldn't sleep because of trains..?"
"I'm just walking back from training and I happen to hear some noise coming from over here so I walked over." Tiga answered quickly. Kami's answer was a bit longer.
"Actually, I've never been to this part of the village. It was happenstance that I ended up here. Then I heard you two gentlemen here and I decided to be careful before I emerged...Amegakure is such a dangerous place, especially for a girl." Kami spoke while keeping the sweet tone she started with.
"But since you guys are so nice, I guess that caution wasn't really necessary."

Kami smiled at the guys, trying to keep the mood light.
"So....... Are you guys all genin like myself?"

Kireme pulled his grey eyes away from his unfocused stare at the immense timepiece and darted them from Tiga to Kaminari, in his mind the thought that his name had the second most amount of syllables in it rushed around in a loop for several seconds.

He then snapped out of it with a visible shudder, just in time to hear the two newcomers explain that they came upon this courtyard much like he and Suno had, by pure happenstance. 'Maybe it's the colour green...' thought Kireme.

Kami continued, speaking with feminine tones, and asked if the other three ninja present were Genin rank like herself. 'I'm still Genin,' replied Kireme 'it's tough to work up the drive to do missions i guess.' He sighed and stood up a bit straighter, resisting some of the weight his suit dragged him down with.

An idea began to form in his mind, his eyes glinting with thought. 'Y'know, four ninja can do a mission much faster and easier than one,' he began 'the four of us together could rank up extremely fast.' A small grin grew on the spacey ninjas face 'How about we all team up?'


((OOC: This was literally the most subtle way i could think of to form the team.))

[suno]

"But since you guys are so nice, I guess that caution wasn't really necessary." Suno smiled at her response.
"I'm young, but even I know that statement is false. I don't mean you any harm..but that doesn't mean others won't. Just something to keep in mind. But as for your other question, I to am a Genin. I haven't even bothered with the Chunin exam yet. I don't Feel I'm old enough yet to bother with those.." He said blushing a little.

When Kireme brought up the idea of the four of them forming a team, Suno was a little taken back. It was just a little sudden to talk about forming a team. Not that he really had a problem with it..
"A team? Well I suppose I can agree to that..maybe if I follow you around enough, I can think of a better way to beat you.." Suno said half smiling, half serious. He didn't like to lose twice. "What do you say? Looking at the girl, then the boy. Care to join in?"

(OOC: Sorry, i know its a little rushed.)

[rashad202]

Tiga Had a small smirk on his face after what sumo had said to kami. Then he started to think about what kireme had said about forming teams. His first thought was about how joining this team would make him a better ninja. After suno answered and he looked Tiga he just kept the same grin as he had before. "well then I think I like the sound of us forming a team." tiga said to kireme. Then every one turned and looked at kami for her answer to kireme question about starting a team.
{occ~~~I'm on my iPod writing this post cause I'm in the city sooo yea lol

[Distance Of Purity]

"I'm still Genin," Kireme started, "it's tough to work up the drive to do missions i guess." Suno didn't wait long to add his response to what Kami had said a few seconds earlier."I'm young, but even I know that statement is false. I don't mean you any harm..but that doesn't mean others won't. Just something to keep in mind." Tiga glanced Kami over, smirking at Suno's words. "But as for your other question, I to am a Genin. I haven't even bothered with the Chunin exam yet. I don't Feel I'm old enough yet to bother with those.." Blush filled the child's cheeks but only for a moment.

It seemed in that moment a light bulb went on in Kireme's head.
"Y'know, four ninja can do a mission much faster and easier than one, the four of us together could rank up extremely fast." A grin began to crack his features. "How about we all team up?" Suno looked slightly surprised at Kireme's idea but then made up his mind quickly.
"A team? Well I suppose I can agree to that..maybe if I follow you around enough, I can think of a better way to beat you.." Kami couldn't tell if the boy was serious until he looked at her and Tiga expectantly. "What do you say? Care to join in?"

Tiga still held the same silly smirk.
"Well then I think I like the sound of us forming a team." It seemed as if they were all waiting for her to respond. Everything deep down inside Kami screamed to get away from these guys. This was definitely outside the normal scope of things for the girl. She had never worked with a team before, preferring to do things on her own time and at her own pace. If she joined up now everything would change. There would be a responsibility to the others, but on the upside she could definitely stand to learn a thing or two from these guys.....


After a brief pause, her mind was made.
"Yea, you can count me in as well. You guys would look pretty gay running around here without a girl on the team." Kami said with a giggle. "I should ask though, are one of you guys a medic? And what name are we gonna christen the team with?"

[The Irredeemable ZaG]

For a brief moment the grin on Kiremes face flashed to unhinged levels, baring his teeth and popping his eyes, but then Kamimari made a good point. 'Hmmm, i know that i'm not a medic at least,' he replied, the grin on his face fading 'how about you two?' he asked Tiga and Suno.

Kireme then pondered the second question, a team name was definitely important, but his mind was a complete blank as to what it could be. His grey eyes wandered aimlessly throughout the green lit courtyard, vainly searching for something to take inspiration from. It was beginning to hurt his eyes by looking at so much green light.

His gaze hovered over to the clock, he noticed that the time was thirty seven minutes past one in the afternoon. 'How about that be our teams name,' he said as he raised his hand and pointed at the time 'that looks pretty cool, we could name ourselves after the time our squad was formed.'

13:37

[suno]

Suno smirked at the other two. They were funny. Each person here seem to have their own personality that made them stick out. Kireme seemed to be the oldest, and most mature of the group. That would easily lead to him being the leader of the group. Suno himself had no issues with that. The other two were both older then him. The girl seem to be on the verge of womanhood, but shy. Perhaps reserved was a better word? He wasn't sure just yet. The other boy, was perhaps a few years older then himself. But he seemed full of energy, and life. That was good. It was never fun to be stuck in a group full of moody, over dramatic people. Then there was Suno..he was just Suno.

When the girl asked about any of them being medics, Suno shook his head.
"No, I'm no medic. I know a little bit about the body from books, and studying..but I couldn't tell you anything beyond basic first aid taught in the academy." Now that the subject was brought up, he wondered if he should mention summons..he was thinking about undertaking a journey to search out a summon his father had told him about. But he did not know enough about it yet.
"If none of us are a medic..I might have a solution..but I still need to do some more research before I bring any more of it up.."

He didn't wanna give out any more details just yet. It was bad to give people false hope. The subject would quickly change to the name of the Team. Kireme mentioned the time. 13:37? He slowly began nodding his head.
"Sure..I don't have any problems with it. What about skills? Kireme and I mentioned Our skills earlier..what about you guys?"

[rashad202]

After Kami answered Tiga first thought was yes he gets to start over with this new team. He thought to his self about what happened to him the first time he went on a mission with another person and how it did not go to well. Then he quickly stopped thinking about that because it was not a good memory. Then he had thought about what kami had said about being a medic.

"well im not a medic and i dont really read to many books about that type of stuff just like Suno i only know basic first aid" He said to the group.

after Tiga answered that question Suno asked a question about what kind of skills me and Kami had. He was very excited to answer this question.

"Well I'm studying a lot of things Jutsu from my clan and im almost ready to obtain the 2nd level of my eyes. Also i love the Raiton the element and i'm attempting to master it." Tiga said with a proud voice. then he looked a Kami and asked "What about you"

[Distance Of Purity]

Not one medic in their new "team". Kami had to admit she was slightly annoyed at the fact but now she just had to hope that if any of them got injured, they would be strong enough to make it to some kind of medical care.
Answering Suno's question about skills, Tiga gave a short answer.
"Well I'm studying a lot of things Jutsu from my clan and im almost ready to obtain the 2nd level of my eyes. Also i love the Raiton the element and i'm attempting to master it." Tiga looked at Kami. "What about you?"

Actually it was a pretty short list for the girl. She was almost embarrassed to say it, but she had not done much training in anything...
"I'm more book smarts than anything else right now....The only thing I've really been studying so far is the use of my sword, the Kiribachi." Once again she left out the fact that her heritage was that of a Sansutomu. For now that fact would just stay in the dark.

Kami looked up at the green digital clock when an idea struck her. "Is there an entryway into this tower with the clock? Because we could use a base of operation now that we're working together. I'm sure whoever owns it wouldn't mind."


OOC: Sorry for the late post!

((OOC: No worries Grim.))

Not Quite Seleah

It sounded like this group had an interesting array of skills, from lighting styles and genjutsu to just plain problem solving, Kireme was also still intrigued to witness Sunos puppetry techniques, either the young ninja relied on them significantly or he was just bad at sparring. Although it did niggle at him that they lacked anyone able to perform medical jutsu, but Suno said he had an idea about it. They could also always get a fifth member to fill the role or just practice not getting hit.

The spacey ninja stood proudly, a sense of accomplishment instilled him. Kaminari asked if the tower which held the clock in place had some entrance to it. Kireme hadn't noticed if it had. His bulky astro suit ruffled and clomped as he walked through the green lit haze to beneath the clock, squinting to try and see in the shadows if there was some sort of opening or doorway.

'None that i can see,' called out Kireme. He turned around, although since he was beyond the clocks illumination he seemed only to be a thick shadowy blot to the others 'I have an idea though.' Through the darkness a single small blue flame seemed to burst into life, lighting up Kiremes grinning face. The flame traced out the kanji for "Claw" then was snuffed out.

Suddenly there was the sound of slicing metal and a beam of white light shone forth out of the darkness. Gradually the light grew in width and size, and the figure of Kireme ripping open a gash in the steel wall using the water claw technique was revealed. Eventually a hole big enough to fit through was created and Kireme disappeared inside. 'Come inside guys, it's perfect in here!' he shouted from inside the tower.

On the other side of the hole was what looked like just a dingy little room, dust covered piles of boxes and fluro lighting buzzed up above, it looked as though they'd found themselves in a neglected archive tower. As the other ninja would enter they'd see Kireme clearing a space among the boxes. He'd look at them all and ask 'What do you think?'

SPOILER: Click to show

Suiton: Oxyhydro Conversion Technique
Rank: "B"
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Converts oxygen and hydrogen in the air into water.
Special: Automatic when performing a water jutsu.
Drawback: It is easy to exceed your chakra level when creating large amounts of chakra- the amount of water needed will automatically be created when you cast a water jutsu when you are not around a water source. Therefore, if you cast a technique and you do not have enough chakra to cast both the technique and create the amount of water necessary, user is incapable of making the technique work.
Description: After spending a large amount of time utilizing water techniques, the Water Shinobi begins to understand the true composition of water. They use this to such an effect that they can create water out of nothing. This is automatic when casting a water jutsu and there is no water source. Be honorable when creating techniques. A small bottle of Water does not have enough substance to create a clone.
Limit: Must have 500 training points into techniques that focus only on Suiton no Jutsu. Once you have obtained 500 training points in Suiton techniques, they gain this technique automatically.

Suiton: Mizutsume no Jutsu (Water Style: Water Claw Technique)
Rank: D Rank
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Causes pressurized water to wrap around the users hand, forming a claw.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: None.
Description: Creates a claw around the users hand which is pressurized and will allow te user to cut with their "bare" hands. Acts as if it were metal, as the water is both highly pressurized and infused with chakra. Lasts two posts, cannot form handseals whith the claw "on".
Limit: Must know Suiton no Jutsu (Water Release). Must have a water source.

Seigyoku Nousho Chouin (Sapphire Calligraphy Sealing)
Rank: B
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows an alternative to handseal.
Special: --
Drawback: The calligraphy must be perfect, thus if the user is interrupted during the process, the user's hand becomes extremely numbed and unusable for thirty minutes (300 posts or next thread)
Description: A different method to perform techniques other than the usage of hand seals is granted to the user. The user places chakra onto the finger, which bursts into blue, water-like flame, and writes kanji in mid-air, letting the blue flame trace the kanji into visibility. The kanji is the main name of the technique, which is executed normally. Works only on water techniques and can replace hand seals. The Seigyoku Nousho Chouin must be written on the body, normally on the chest or either palm, for it to have any effect what-so-ever on the property of the water when used as armor.
Limit: Must have Water Release.

While the boy began talking about his skills, Suno got to work right away analyzing them. Other then his clan techniques, he seem to want to learn lightning style ninjutsu. Suno didn't know all that much about those techniques, but he figured this meant he was probably a close, to med distance fighter. While he didn't seem stupid, he probably lacked Genjutsu skills, or knowledge how to defend himself against Genjutsu. Of course..that would eventually be the huge roll filled by Suno. So they had someone who worked with Ninjutsu. That was good. From what he had seen of Kireme, he also worked heavily with Ninjutsu..but his attacks seemed to be more close range. However, being as old as he was, he probably had other skills up his sleeves.

The girl, didn't really tell much. She mentioned the use of a sword..meaning she was probably a Taijutsu user. Which was good..It would bring some balance to the team. She also said she was more book smart. Suno smiled.
"There is nothing wrong with that at all. Working with smart people is a whole lot better then working with brainless brutes. I'd rather my Team mates know how to problem solve." He said trying to reassure her. She then asked about a door. Suno was gonna say there was probably another one on the other side of the building, then Kireme started slashing away, making his own door. Suno smiled and kept the comment to himself. Why embarrass his team on the first day? They would have a lot of time to do that.

When he called them to come in, Suno would start walking forward, slowly, picking up his Senbon needles along the way. They weren't expensive to replace, but why waste money if you didn't have to?. He would be the last one to enter. His nose would smell dust. It obviously hadn't been used in some time. "I like it..a little..deadish..but I like it. Give it a good cleaning..and it would almost be liveable in here." He said with a smile. A question came to his mind.
"I don't suppose any of you can come up with a clever way to carry around a puppet..with out actually carrying it around would you? The thing weighs as much as I do."

[rashad202]

Once Kami finished talking Tiga thought about what she had said about not knowing to many Jutsu and how she was more book smart. He Thought it was a good thing because without books he would not know as much as he does about Ninjutsu. Before he could say anything out load Suno had began to speak.

"There is nothing wrong with that at all. Working with smart people is a whole lot better then working with brainless brutes. I'd rather my Team mates know how to problem solve." said Suno.
"You took the words right out of mouth" Tiga said because he said everything that he was thinking.

Then all of the Ninja's directed there attention over to the clock tower and began to make there were to it. when Kami called out to see if anyone seen entrance Kireme said no and then there was a loud slashing noise. None of the Ninja could see exactly what was going but there was a light that got brighting once the sounds stopped. Then he heard Kireme say "'Come inside guys, it's perfect in here!" he followed behind everyone walked into the tower.

"Yeah this is pretty nice all we gotta to do is clean up and it could be like our second home" said Tiga with a slight grin on his face while he walked around the room.

[Distance Of Purity]

Kireme being the fearless leader that he was, opened up his own entryway into the building. Kaminari had only asked if anyone had seen an entrance not if anyone could make one.... But it didn't matter.
"Come inside guys, it's perfect in here!" He yelled loudly from inside the entrance he created. The team filed in quickly with Suno bringing up the rear. The room they were in right now was small and filled with many dusty boxes that looked as if they contained something very important. Except, that their importance had been forgotten a long time ago by those who had put them here.
"What do you think?" Kireme asked, excitement dripping off his voice.

Kaminari opened a box, loosing a large cloud of dust into the air that made her sneeze, catch her breath, and then sneeze again.
"I like it..a little..deadish..but I like it. Give it a good cleaning..and it would almost be liveable in here." Suno replied with a smile, after giving the place a quick glance over.
"Yeah this is pretty nice all we gotta to do is clean up and it could be like our second home." Tiga added with a grin of his own.
"It has a mysterious aura about it." Kami threw in, halfway pleased with her suggestion.
A look of curiosity flashed across Suno's face.
"I don't suppose any of you can come up with a clever way to carry around a puppet..with out actually carrying it around would you? The thing weighs as much as I do."

Kami was elbow deep in a box when she gave Suno an answer.
"You might be able to find your answer in one of these dusty boxes." She said while holding up a old scroll she pulled from one of the boxes. "The writing is faded a bit, but these look like jutsu scrolls to me. It might take a while to go through all of them, but I'm pretty sure there are some interesting things in these clock tower boxes." She instantly began digging into another box, kicking up another cloud of dust that made her sneeze once again.

Once all the squad was inside the room Kireme took hold of a loose sheet of steel that lay in between a stack of boxes and slid it over the hole he created, in order to hide the entrance into the ninjas new domain. As his fellow rain nin explored and commented on the room Kireme looked back and said 'Not bad for random chance eh?'

He turned his bulky body around and swiped some dust of the top of a box, the grey particles were layered so thick that they fell like a waterfall onto the ground 'I reckon our first mission should probably make this place a bit less asthma inducing,' he then got a good idea 'to that end, do you three know any cloning jutsu?' he asked. Sitting, or whatever the closest resemblance would be whilst in an astronaut suit, on a thick box Kireme elaborated 'Anything like water clones or mud clones, that kind of jutsu could make this cleanup alot quicker.'

Suno inquired as to any of his team mates knew of a way to store his puppet weapon, and once again Kireme spoke up 'I dunno how it would be for one of your puppet things, but i know how to put a summoning seal on you,' he said in a stilted voice. 'You put one seal on the object and an equivalent one on some part of your body and then all you have to do is touch your seal with a bit of chakra and the object will be instantly teleported to you,' his steel like eyes looked at Suno unfocusedly 'interested?'


((OOC: I'm such a speech whore >.< ))

[suno]

{ooc: all good . I haven't had an answer from heero in my support thread, but i have received more yeses then no, so i am gonna go ahead and have you place it. If he comes back and says no, then we will just pretend it never happened. This is gonna be another short rush post.}

Suno joined the other in digging through the boxes. Different scrolls, dealing with different subjects. Somewhere indeed jutsu scrolls, others seem to be documents for whose purpose he could not tell. He heard the girl sneeze.
"Bless you." He said, as his eyes darted back and forth over a scroll. He was surprised by what he found. He found a box with design plans for a couple of Puppets. He would have to review them later. Placing the scroll back into the box, he would set it aside to take home with him. By this time, Kireme would began talking about a seal.

He listened to how the seal worked. It seemed like a good idea. It would only cost a bit of his chakra. Suno nodded his head. "Alright..Yea i think i am interested. If your willing to do it now..I can run back and get my puppet, and return in say..fifteen minutes. Maybe twenty." Does that sound good to you?"

[rashad202]

OCC~~(SORRY ABOUT THE LATE REPLY BUT I DID NOT WHAT TO SAY LOL)

Tiga watched everyone going through all the boxes in the room searching for stuff that might help us later. So Tiga decied that he would go head and look through some boxes because thats what everyone was doing. As he was opening a box a lot of bugs came out of the box he was looking into his first instant was to jump back but he did not cause he did not want to look like a scary-cat. so he just said "Oh shit. Guess were invading someone else s home." with a slight laugh

He picked up an old scroll that had his surname on it. "oh wow look at this. i guess we all found something that we could use." Said Tiga the scroll had some older Jutsu that not to many people around the dojo knew about. So Tiga said "Im taking this with me."

When kimere asked if anyone knew how to make any types of clones he just shook his head with a plain look on his face. "I have not got that far with my training." he said.

[Distance Of Purity]

So Kireme knew how to place weapon summoning seals... Things just got better and better. Kaminari couldn't help but to feel that small bit of excitement that seemed to hit everyone else already. Looking around at the guys she could already tell that she was weakest link, but since their "team" covered such a broad spectrum of abilities, Kami was sure that she could definitely learn a thing or two from them.

Kireme had asked if anyone had clones of any sort, but Kami had been so lost in thought she had not answered yet.
"Sorry Kireme, I don't have any clones yet... But if someone wants to train me in making them, this could go a bit faster."
There might be a clone scroll somewhere in here. She thought, while going through the box meticulously.

[The Irredeemable ZaG]

'Sure, no worries,' replied Kireme when Suno asked if he could go and retrieve his puppet 'I'm actually rather curious to see exactly what it is.' He'd then take a step to the side to ensure that the young ninja could reach the metal slab "Door".

The sound of Tiga being spooked by the bugs made Kireme himself jolt a bit, he turned his face towards the noise and saw a gang of creepy crawlies scuttling around. The ninja shivered in his space suit, it would be a nightmare for him if one of those things got trapped inside his suit. His eyes lit up when he saw that Tiga had found a scroll and said 'Wow, this place must have everything.'

Tiga and Kaminari both stated that they didn't know the water clone technique. Kireme slid off the dusty box and onto his moon boots 'If either of you would like to learn the technique while we wait for Suno to bring back his puppet i'd be glad to show you, cloning techniques take a bit of getting used to but they're definitely worth having,' he explained 'how about it?'

[suno]

[ooc:Rash, please use a image hosting site, or edit the avatar in paint. Its too big. Figure i would warn you before staff throws a fit.]

Suno nodded his head and headed out the "door" and into the courtyard once again. He smiled. So they had a ninjutsu user, a Tai user, and himself a Genjutsu user. This was a well balanced team for a random gathering of people. Jumping forward, the others would see him disappear into the village, leaving them to do whatever they wanted. He moved quickly through the village streets, taking all the short cuts he could remember. When he reached him home, he found his puppet laying on his bed where he had left it. Giving it a quick once over, he made sure nothing was broken, or missing.

Just as he said, twenty minutes later, Suno would reappear. Walking behind him, would be almost an exact clone of himself. The puppet had been designed to look identical to Suno. With a special technique he had learned, he could even keep the puppet from making the normal clunky sounds that puppets made, making the puppet a perfect decoy.
"This is Shino, my puppet." Suno said. A flick of his fingers allowed the puppet to make a bow. Jumping up, and sitting on a sturdy box, he began to have the puppet move around some of the other dusty boxes.
"To answer your question from earlier, I don't exactly know a clone technique, but I can use this.." He said with a smile.

The young boy now looked even more childish as he messed around with it.
"Eventually I plan on making more..or having a skilled puppet maker make me a couple more. They are ridiculously expensive though. This one cost me over 20,000 ryo when you include the weapons."
