Ventures of an Aspiring Ventriloquist

The night was short, and the day was long - common side effects of pulling an all-nighter reading books and literature of a most peculiar subject - puppetry. Rika was heavy into the art of manipulating puppets for in-combat and out-of-combat scenarios, though a heavy burden lay upon her chest - the absence of a puppet she could call her very own. Day in and day out, the stress was bearing down upon her while the time passed swiftly. She was now fifteen, and still considered of the Genin rank. Progress was not being made, but now, that was about to change.

Her new home, Sound Village, wasn't a very familiar place for her, being that she was originally a native of Suna - but location means nothing. She had much to accomplish, and not much support to do so. Sitting upon a thickened tree branch, Rika stared off into the sunset, contemplating her next step. Whatever may occur in the day to come, she may not have been ready for it, but she was more than willing to encounter it.

OCC:Hope its alright if i join.

IC:The sound of Crunching leaves,the clashing of a blade against the trunk of a tree, as the loud sound of heavy breathing,Akechi's breath was completely gone,Slowly he stood up holding his chest then grappling his blade slashing at the tree trunk once again fiercely and strongly."damn it..."his dark purple bangs dangling in front of his face,the sound of crunching leaves echoed the area again as he walked over and took a drink of his water in a bowl and looked at the sunset and shook his head,twirling his sword in his hand then slashing at the same spot in the tree trunk with a swift strike, The trunk of the tree was damaged badly and No way it could repair its self after all the damage he'd done to it.

Slowly he smiled then felt the presence of someone in the distance, not exactly sure who it was,But caring very less to the fact they were there was the least of his worries,continuously striking the trunk he noticed it was waring thing and then that it fell over and he dodged it quickly making a huge crash and echoing through the whole area."small tree, huge echo very interesting.

sheathing his blade and sat down against a tree and drinking from his bowl of water,looking at the tree."lots training to go before i ever finish."He yawned as he layed there staring off into the distance area of trees.

Orange hair glistened, blending in with the hue of the sunset hovering overhead, making it seem as if Rika was fading into the distance of the horizon upon sight. She peered down over the branch's edge, where she took brief refuge, listening in for the source of the loud echoing noise - a crash, to be precise.

Dropping down to the canopy level of the forest, a light thud resounded as the balls of her feet sank into the pile of fallen leaves below - too wet to make a crunch, though to dry to simply sink and go soggy. The perfect landing to restrict pain from occuring in the kunoichi's heels and arch of her feet.

A streak of purple was noticable, as well as a wakizashi belonging to a young man bearing a symbol of Oto - her new homeland. Not much else was taken into consideration, save for his long hair. Quite a sight, really - though, Rika wasn't much one to care for such luxuries. She prefered her hair short for the comfort of less maintenance.

"A native..."

The only two words that managed to escape her lips were quick and precise, though with a vile background to it. It's not that she despised natives of her new village, it's just that she didn't feel comfortable around strangers.

IC:Slowly getting up and putting his blade behind him and on his hair he slashed off a large amount of it making it more of a semi short but still down to his back and then took out a black piece of bow and then tied it around his hair so it was all bunched together,Finishing off his water.Akechi looked around then winked and raised his white pale hand and spoke softly but enough for the girl in the distance with the sun fire colored hair."you can come out now girl....Do not need to be alerted...No need in me killing you..."He sheathed his blade and looked at the girl in the distance as his bangs weren't covering his eyes.

Slowly he pushed off one foot and jumped from 1 tree side to the other using his power in his strength and sat in on a branch two trees away."admiring the sunset i see?"the calm cool voice of the young man."to young to be a shinobi...Do you live in this parts."Not scouting her out to find if she had some kind of headband to make sure she wasn't an intruder,Stand up and leaning against the tree,closing his eyes as beads of sweat dripped off his face and hitting the ground.

Slowly relaxing his muscles before he started to pull them,looking at the girl again and waited for her to respond.

Rika stood to her feet, tapping her left forefinger on the band wrapped around her waist, with the large Oto sign across a metallic buckle, of sorts. Folding her arms across her chest, a sigh was released as if being pressed out before words followed through.

" Correct, not shinobi...Kunoichi. Age, means nothing. "

With her few words spoken, her head tilted back into the direction of the sunset as her body lean against the thick trunk of a willow tree - allowing the hanging vine-like brush of the tree to hang over her to mask even her silohuette.

OCC:heh cute...

IC:Slowly his blade was being drawn from its sheath once again,the dark colored of his eyes shaded into the tree as he stood there,Smile came across his face."you might be pretty...but lets see what you got any skill besides those looks of yours."the shinobi looked at her as his blade was unsheathed and did a back flip through the trees,Landing on the ground with a loud thud from his feet and stood there smiling as his blade was sheathed again but leaving all suspicious open."So you gonna show me little girl or am i gonna have to bring the fight to you."The cold chilling sound of his blade scraping against the shaft's metal guard.

The first time in a long time, hes ever talked to someone without saying more then 3 words."you know what shocks me,Girl."his voice echoing the whole area."I spoken more to you...then i have in my entire life..."He Waited calmly as He waited for her to come, The eyes of akechi closed with a present and calm look on his face appeared as listening around him in case she tired to pull a fast one on him.

Rika remained still, not even hinting of making a sudden move or reaction. She wasn't stunned by the remarks of the man, more-like, displeased and unsure as to how to respond in kind. She wasn't much of a close-range fighter, and hadn't had the opportunity to acquire a puppet to use as of yet. Improvisation at this point , was the key.

Her arms gently tugged away from her chest while Rika began pressing her hands together in a brief hand seal chain. At this moment, her eyes were locked onto the man's as well, using body language to speak what her mouth refused.

" Bunshin no Jutsu! "

Wasting no time with semantics, a single clone entity was produced standing directly in front of her present location - the clone's eyes barreling down upon the man's figure. Suddenly, it dropped lifelessly to the ground in a slumped heap at the kunoichi's feet as if a sudden heart attack had stolen her breath. Rika crouched slightly, placing her hands in a criss-cross fashion while blue strings of chakra shot out in every direction, latching onto each limb of the clone. The strings from her right thumb and index finger, indirectly connected to the right arm; right middle and ring finger strings latched onto the right leg; right pinky sending a supporting string that split to each of the limbs on the right side of the clone's body. All the same in an identical fashion for the clone's left hemisphere of it's body, and her left hand.

Tugging at her fingers, the clone pounced to it's feet, full of new life and vigor - standing promptly to battle for her master. Seemingly a snap of her fingers caused several actions at once, as the joints in her fingers moved in several different ways forcing the strings to sway back an forth in a rhythmetic pattern - thus, sparking a full variety of maneuvers for the clone. The clone's left hand reached into it's pocket and rocketed three shuriken forward headed straight for the man's chest, neck and face while Rika took the brief opportunity to conceal herself within the brush of the bushes and willow trees - combating via her make-shift clone puppet. The clone would speak the words she meant to say, as to be careful not to reveal her position.

" The compliment is surely appreciated... "

OCC:Very different...i'll play nice and not use my bloodline

IC:slowly as the tree was rumbled with dropping clones, he shook his head."to slow..."before the clone could throw 3 shurikens at him from the distance,the blade of his wakazashi was already through her body of her clone, it disappeared dropping three shurikens and he picked them up examined them."Hmmm interesting...why not..."he looked around and shook his head and a smile came upon his face as then jumped into the trees."Girl you are making this way to much fun..."He gave a large grin not so she could see it but then jumped higher and higher into the tree till he was at the top of one,Slowly he scouted around looking for moving trees then noticed one.

throwing 1 shuriken at the area then another in to other places she could possibly move to."why not play me fun like instead of hiding?afraid of a taijutsu user?"He smirked as he jumped floating down slashing his blade through the trees as he landed on a branch looking around."where could she be..."Removing the shuriken out of the tree stump and then looked around contentiously.

throwing his blade in a direction, Slowly he threw the shuriken through the trees in the direction of moving trees again,not hearing anything but seeing tree leaves falling down."must of hit her..."akechi grinned as then jumped over to a tree and pushing off it flying towards the direction he threw the shuriken,about to slash into the spot checking if the girl was there.

(Occ:your choice to be there or not)

ooc: Thank you. I plan to have my character as a Kugutsu specialist. So this is all I can muster up at the moment.

IC:

Rika steadied her breath to maintain the silence neccessary to compromise her current position - hidden away in the thick brush of the trees and bushes. Up close, she wouldn't stand a chance against the man, and she knew it. All Rika could manage to think about, was strafing the position and keeping her distance. With the ruffle of trees sounding all around her, Rika placed her hands together once more for a stream of hand seals. As the shuriken sliced through the leaves with ease, it seemed to sink into her chest - just before she vanished in a puff of smoke and left a log in her place, bearing the entrapped shuriken in it's bark.

She had swapped locations, taking refuge in a higher portion of the same tree, now with her chakra strings attached to the log, as her clone had already been defeated. The log seemed to speed forward with a sense of invigoration as if shot out of a cannon - twirling with the shuriken's edge a threat if struck against the man's body, similar to a razor cut. Rika had used the chakra to push the log forward as a distraction, just before emerging from the tree and holding her right hand up.

" It's ok...I won't fight any longer. I won't win. "

OCC:hmmm this will be interesting then, won't it, We shall see if this turns into a rivalry or a friendship..heh..

IC:slowly he slashed through the trees the clone disappeared and smoke appeared as a log came out of nowhere smashing him right in the face sending him flying and rolling on the ground after already being flying in the air,Slowly he stood up at a skid and looked at the girl as she raised her right hand saying she doesn't want to fight no more."Could be a trick...I don't know to trust her or not...better not..."He thought to himself as he was analyzing the girl,the trickery of the female could of been good or bad but akechi thought not to go through with it,Slowly he threw his Blade into the air as he made hand signs as the blades light flickering from the sunset blinded her most likely or she drew her eyes to the shimmering blade.

he caught the blade and sheathed it and looked at his blade."you put up a good fight..."The clone walked up slowly to her and put his hands out in front of him,even the chakra he was burning was at the same level he was."I won't pull a fast one..."He smiled as he got closer, Akechi behind her not even making a sound stand there not even the faint of a whisper could be heard from him and then suddenly, the clone stopped."So...the name is akechi Mitsuhide..you?"He said calmly.

The real akechi waited behind a tree, in case she swung around looking at him,stand there waiting for her to respond to the clone.
