Loner's night shrouded by the Mist (Open)

A lone figure could be seen treading forward in Kirigakure's marshes attempting to find the entrance to the village that is dubbed the village hidden in the Mist. The figure had jet black hair that was wild and unkempt, very much like his personality. He had violet pupils devoid of emotion, his face etched permantly into a snide smirk. The figure was donned in a white chemise and a black coat with both his hands dangling freely from the coat, wearing it like a cape. His hands clenched two tonfas in case he was ambushed by rouges. The figure was named Karasu No Takeshi due to his odd fascination with these black, sinister mercenary birds. An orphaned child, a child with a unique gift that was a blessing and a curse to they boy. Takeshi is the Schichibi jinchuuriki from Kusagakure No Sato. A mere genin that had just graduated from the academy was sent as an emissary by the leader of Kusagakure in hopes that this boy would impress the Mizukage into talks of an alliance and trade rights.

"Oi! Kid I'm getting pretty f'ing pissed at the same gloomy scenery where the hell is Kirigakure already?" The speaker was something that only Takeshi could hear in his head, it was the Schichibi bijuu himself. "Silence Schichibi if I converse with myself I will be portrayed as a madman and this would harm the mission, which means no pay." There was no denying that this boy was a genius, he was dubbed as such when he was a mere child in the academy. Now the Kusagakure prodigy had managed to tame the bijuu within him. Kusagakure's proud experiment, the perfect murder machine. The only problem was that they did not know that Takeshi held no loyalty towards his village or anyone for that matter due to the way he was horribly treated as a child. He had grown up as an aloof, withdrawn, cold, emotionless weapon, this was how he had come to view himself.

A lone crow gave it's call and hovered into the sky, north west of where Takeshi was currently standing. Takeshi looked up with no hint of emotions on his face. An ambush how interesting... Takeshi silently watched as two shadows began encircling the Schichibi junchuuriki. Two kunai were tossed but were very easily deflected by Takeshi's tofas. Takeshi whirled the tonfas in a circle and maintained his position. Once more another round of kunai were thrown at him which were defleced once more. Then out of nowhere a fireball erupted at him and a small tornado from the other side, jumping aside he narrowly avoided taking damage from the now flaming tornado. "Give us all your money and equipment kid and we might spare ya!" Came a voice from the distance. Takeshi smirked and replied in an aloof manner, "on contraire it is you who will give me your money and equipment and I will not spare you." Takehsi formed a singular handseal and burrowed underground. He then popped out of the ground a mere inch away from one of the bandits and dragged him underground where only his head was popping over the ground. Takeshi wheeled around just in time to parry a blow from the other bandit who attacked him with a kunai. The pair engaged in fast paced parrying blows and delivering counter attacks.

"Whats all this noice..", a young female mumbled to herself, as she stood up, brushing grass away from her pants. She had long sun-blond hair, going down a few inches below her waist. She had slight curves on her young body, and her baby cheeks had begun to dissapear, through a chest could`t be seen, but she was most likely wearing chest bindings under her clothes. She was wearing some cotten pants in light brown, making movement easy. Over them, she was wearing a thight-long dark-green skirt, seeming to only be there for looks. A long-sleeved black blouse was covering her arms and upper body, having a V-cut, through it only vent down slightly. A katana was strapped to her back in its holster. Finaly, she was wearing a kunai pouch on her left thight, and a mist headband around her neck, meaning she was a hidden mist, and due to her apperance, not more than a genin.

Narami passed through the nearby trees, pushing away branches, not minding the cold. The young girl was Narami Hyouton, the youngest member of the small clan in the hidden mist. The clan was very unique through, it is the only clan known to man, who has the ability to use ice jutsu`s, without the need of mastering wind and water jutsu`s.

She didnt have to walk long, befor she saw a man`s head poking up from the ground. She coverd her mouth, surpressing her scream. It took her a moment to realise this man was alive, breathing, afriad, but breaking at least. She could hear leafs rushling, branches snapping, blades being swung against eacthoder. It was clear a battle was going on, and of cause she was curios on who was battling, but her instrics told her to make sure the man was okay, and maybe get him out.

"Sir, are you alright?..IM a ninja from the hidden mist, Narami Hyouton, im not a enemy", she spoke in a shuttering tone, kneeling down, ccausing some of her sunblond hair to lightly tickle his cheek.

Takeshi flipped back and parried a blow that was directed to his face using his tonfas. Takeshi ducked to dodge a blow then with a quick swipe of his tonfa hit one of the bandits square in the chest sending him sprawling back. Takeshi twirled his tonfas around to block a bunch of shuriken thrown at him. Takeshi then dived forward then shoulder thrusted one to the ground before jumping back and as he flipped back formed a quick set of handseals. As soon as his feet touched the ground Takeshi was underground once more, meanwhile up above the bandits were looking for him. Takeshi then took the opportunity using his earth release: hiding like a mole technique to move away from the bandits whilst he formulated a plan to eliminate them all in one blow without having to resort to the Schichibi's chakra. A few feet away Takeshi resurfaced back on to the ground.

Takeshi formed a set of handseals and muttered, " Haze Clone Technique." With that several clones of Takeshi, all raven haired and possess, emotionless violet pupils like their master. With that all the clones spread out and began to encircle the bandits who were beginning to slowly rise after recieving a thrashing from Takeshi. Takeshi remained hidden in the shrubs nearby watching the bandits interacting with his clones. Just as Takeshi was about to finalize his final jutsu of his combo, he noticed another figure interacting with one of the bandits that he had trapped beneath the earth. Takeshi had one of his clones nearby turn towards her and mutter "get in my way and I will bite you to death."

OOC: Sorry little muse right now it'll get better

Narami stood fully up, and looked over her shoulder at a taller, and abit older looking, man, telling her he would kill her if she came in his way. "So your a bad guy?", she asked, fully tunning around, tilting her head to the left, in a somewhat cute manner, at least thats how people who cared for her would think.

Narami didnt move, despite the clone got closer and closer. She didnt seem paralyzed with fear, she wasent shaking, she was just..looking at it. Of cause Narami didnt know that this was a clone, for her, it appeard to be the one who had trapped the man inside the ground. She withdrew her katana from its holster, and held it in front of her, awaiting anything.

Takeshi's extremely cold, emotionless violet eyes scanned the girl absorbing every detail about her from her blonde hair to her green eyes to the sword that was pointing towards him. Meanwhile the bandits became restless and began attacking the clones where the real Takeshi was concealed beneath the shrubs. "You have been warned you little rugrat assist those bandits and I will bite you to death." With that the haze clone walked away but maintained his distance watching the girl for her reaction, Takeshi kept that clone there just in case the girl might pose a threat later. Takeshi had zero problem murdering the girl if she had gotten in his way and stopped him from accomplishing his mission. Even if this girl was from the village to which he was assigned to meet their kage, their Kage did not even need to know of this incident he would make sure of it one way or another.

Takeshi then formed a set of handseals and disappeared underground once more to land his final assault against the bandits. Takeshi then moved forward and hopped out of the ground and landed a brutal blow to one of the bandits jaw sending him to the ground unconsious, he then burrowed underground once more and continued attacking one by one until they all fell. Takeshi's disappated his jutsu and walked over to the young girl, still armed with his tonfas.

Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish Technique: A ninjutsu where one suddenly appears to the ground's surface. Its efficiency will increase drastically if used in conjunction with a jutsu such as the Haze Clone Technique to draw the enemy's attention. Furthermore, it's even more efficient when employed in a crowded area that, if the target notices something, can be overrun by the nearby masses. This technique is used for sneaking and striking silently, like a fish underwater. As such it is a great strategy for a guerrilla, and a likely resort, used quite often for things such as personality assassination.

Haze Clone Technique: At first glance it seems like a regular Clone Technique, but the Haze Clone uses a cunning trap to lure out the enemy. Using this technique together with the Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish Technique, the enemy is led to believe that the real body is among the clones. As the Haze Clones are not physically real, the attack will just passes through them. While attention is drawn to the clones, the real body attacks from the blind spot. During the illusion and resulting chaos, the enemy, who is caught up in the technique, can be easily defeated.

Narami turned towards the taller man, her hands getting tigher around the handle of her blade, wich was shinning in the dime moonlight, that reached down through the thick tree-branches, providing the only light in the forest. The blade was reflected in her eyes, making them glow slightly. She wrinkled a little on her thin nose, narrowing her eyes at him, as the smell of blood filled the air.

He could see her left leg was shivering slightly, but her eyes was set on him. It was a weird scene, like a little mouse, standing in front of the big lion, shacking, yet standing straight, looking into the eyes of the hunter. The moonlight revealed that, due to her slight curvey hips, and maturing young face, she was above 10, yet not growing into a woman.

OOC: I have no intentions of being mean but there are crucial mistakes in your post that need to be fixed before this rp continues.

1) Takeshi is 16 and he looks it.
2) There is no way in hell that either you or the Hachibi could know I am the Schichibi unless you see me transform or if Takeshi tells you he is.
3) Also the only way you could tell which village I am from is through the headband I am wearing on my upper left forearm.

Thank you

OOC:sorry man i fixed it
