Masahiro walked to the edge of the village, his eyes trailing the skies as birds took to their wings, and his mind wandered for a time. He smiled, a rare sight for the man to truly seem happy. Looking down to the ground he found a young woman, half asleep, groggy amid the dirt. Kneeling down he placed his hand upon her forehead and tugged gently at her horn to get her to rouse, before he tapped in the center of her forehead and roused her further.
"Hey, Alethea, your squad headed off without you. Gauging on how things are, you're probably best off going to the academy or dojo to train. There's a couple of boys, Kaguya, who are going to be heading there to train soon." He spoke as he got her roused, before turning to head out the gate.
As the gate opened for him, he smiled and nodded to the ANBU one last time.

For every 10 chakra sent, 20 stamina is restored. ● True Belief: The user has meditated and trained long enough in this monk art to understand how important true belief is. By understanding the power of the spirit over the mind, and the mind over the body, the user has increased their stamina by sheer will power alone, as well as increased their toughness and durability. ● Satori [ Enlightenment ] : Meditation and spiritual exploration and understand yields interesting results. Due to the greater understanding of the self, the user is more aware of the connection between their mind, body and spirit, and how to utilize that connection. The user is now slightly more skilled at just about everything. Striking, blocking, moving, absorbing, and taking damage.
King of the Iron Fist: ● Iron umph: The users ability to tense, stabilize, and execute hard blocks and strikes has increased, making blocking power slightly more increased. ● Iron resiliency: The User has gone through tough enough training, being banged and moved around in armor to understand what it feels like. The user is now slightly more resilient to damage. ● Iron Disciple: The user, through hours of intense training in multiple bad scenarios, has learned the old saying of “to kill with one punch.” Because they do not want to find themselves outnumbered, or maybe for pure enjoyment sake, the user is able to hit with great intensity when striking a foe, focusing on tension, grounding, stability, and strength at the impact sight.

Approaching the great gates of Konohagakure, Bjorn and Grym would look up at the ANBU and roar to announce their arrival. A minute later, once the gate had opened wide for them to pass, especially for Grym at his size, the brothers would march through and go looking for a place to unload their burdens.
Chōumei Sue Akamichi || Rank :: Konohagakure | Title: Genin | Rank: D || Class :: Performer/ Bukijutsu || Chakra :: 400/400 || Stamina :: 180/180
食 Not long off behind Bjorn and Grym and would waltz in casually behind him. Whistling to herself as she'd look over to the Anbu and from the lack of a box in her hands it would be obvious that she wasn't successful in her mission if any of the Anbu who knew were present. Either way seeing Masahiro and explaining the progress of the mission would be hard but it was necessary. Turning bakc to her team Chōumei would give them orders to head to another location while she went to speak to the hokage on behalf of the team. "Okay guys let big mama Cho-Cho handle the debriefing and you guys go and take a look around the village an check on your families and others who might of been armed int he panic after that explosion. Meet me in the academy after that, kay? Now lets get through with the toughest part of being a ninja...the paper work."
[Exit into village]

Passives/Attributes: • Learn Ninjutsu one [1] post faster. [ Academy] • Learn Genjutsu one [1] post faster [Academy] • Learns Bukijutsu one [2] post faster. [ DoJo] • Learns Taijutsu one [1] post faster. [ Dojo]
• Emotional Content: The user is able to make fantastic illusions appear by performing on their instrument. This ability comes at the cost of not being able to perform ninjutsu through use of performance or instrument. Can perform B rank genjutsu and lower at Gennin.
•Weapon Specialist: The user Gains a free custom weapon slot, while forsaking the ability to learn ninjutsu for the ability to learn more than 1 rigorous style (styles still count for 2 slots). With their inability to learn ninjutsu, they get to learn [1] additional bukijutsu style for every 10 ninjutsu slots their were supposed to acquire. Their depth and devotion to the weapon arts allows their skill to increase with every rank allowing their weapons to cut through defensive bukijutsu techniques of the same rank.
• Walking Contradiction: Chōsu has oddly no trouble when it comes to performing genjutsu, contradicting and overriding her clans normal weakness in this area, and all ninjutsu and genjutsu slots are compounded into genjutsu, yet learning genjutsu does take one [1] more post for her than others. (not conflicting with buki discipline b/c she "would of" had them)
• Prodigious Martial-Artist!: Chōsu has a large and curvy build and flexible physical shape that allows her to learn and practice most any(soft or hard) Buki or Tai-jutsu style rigorous or not with just one [1] slot. Provided her curvy physique has the benefit of mass for hard-style, and springy flexibility for soft-style. (though purely light-weight styles are restricted when heavy) Yet this is a taxing task in terms of the time it takes to learn these Jutsu increasing learning requirements by one [1] post.
• The Hunter's Instinct: Can always find The [Chakra Virus] monster in the general direction from her location.
• Basic Stance Physical :: E :: training The user holds their weapon at the belly button level, with the tip of the blade pointing at their opponents throat. This is a simple, but aggressive stance.
Kirumi and the others followed Choumei into the gates of Konohagakure, empty handed after their mission. They seemed to have arrive just in time for some goingons to be about. There seemed to be what looked like the aftermath of an explosion. Choumei promised to take care of the heavy stuff of leading the squad as they were tasked with helping out the people who were busy being caught up in the blast. Kirumi grew concerned for her aunt, her sole guardian who had lived in the section of the village that was near the site of the explosion. Before Choumei left, Kirumi nervously asked "C-Can we talk later? I wanted to ask you about...stuff..." The weakest link in the chain that was Nihongo asked, waving to her as their leader parted ways with them. She began to hurry towards her home before turning back to the group and wondering if they would like to accompany her. "If you guys wanted, you could come with. I just needed to check on my family." Kirumi ended it there, her thoughts for her aunt overwhelming her polite nature as she then hurried towards the district in which she spent most of her time.
Once they reached the village he watched the people running about in a great panic. It seemed they still had not restored order after the explosion. Part of him wanted to go and dive head long into it all and try to organize it somehow yet the other half wanted to go check on his own family. Though it was Kirumi who lent a machete to his intellectual thicket when she asked if they would go with her. Nodding quickly he took off after her towards her aunts house. He had met her several times in the past and regarded her as family as well,"Right behind you Kiru."
Hanako arrived at the gates, returning from her mission. She was somewhat tired, but no worse for the wear. She looked around, letting her hair loose from its braid, flowers cascading out and floated in the air around her as she walked. It was quite the sight in her eyes, watching the petals float. Such beauty. Ice blue eyes gazed around as she smiled.
Taka came back into the gates. She had a infuriated look on her face and a note clenched tightly in her fist. The anbu listening could hear the phrase "rat b*****d" as she passed through.
xxxx< Passive Attributes and Jutsu > • Beast Master: The user is able to nurture grow, and bond with up to 3 animals, of various shapes and sizes (one lizard, one canine, one feline, ect), with the user being able to receive similar traits to their animals(must submit to customs). These animals will be close to the users level, though still requiring the leader for nurturing, growth, ect. The animals will not be able to pass Jounin level, even if the user can. They have 1/2 the user's chakra and stamina pool, while only being able to manipulate a single element. At gennin, the user can choose a single trait associated with their animal companion. At chunnin, when the user gains their second animal conpanion, the user may choose another trait associated with this single companion. At jounin, when the user gains their third companion, they may choose another trait associated with that animal. Each trait must be submitted to the custom jutsu thread. • Inception: The user's genjutsu prowess has increased the sheer power of the genjutsu, making them act a rank higher then they are (up to S rank).

Nariko left the gate with the appropriate paperwork saying she wasn't apart of the village anymore. She didn't care in the slightest as the guards spat at her feet. [exit]
A small, compact procession could be seen from the top of the gates, heading slowly towards the massive wooden entrance. Nearing soon enough, the ornate decoration of the carriage signified that the local Daimyou, Mortos deCorpo, had arrived. Not to be outdone by his own strikingly ornate visuals, a trumpeter on the back of the carriage stood upon to announce the fanfare: Royal Entrance toots. Curtains still drawn, Mortos sat within the single vehicle, his steady paint brush and concentration unaffected by the journey's rough bumps. "Hm," he vocalized at the trumpeter's music, aware of his own arrival, but still as of yet uncaring: he was finishing up some last minute details on a very delicate acrylic-and-pencil painting.
The gates was bustling with activity on the sighting of the carriage and the fanfare. The gates opened wide and no less than a full squad of anbu were checking the guards as they came up to the gates. They would escort the group inside the gates. After one sent word to the hokages office, it would be several minutes before an overly large fox appeared in the area. It would move down to the carriage and offer an uncharacteristically deep bow to the entire group before turning around and looking behind itself as if to ask them to follow her.

The carriage driver nodded towards the inconvenience of the ANBU check, but made no uncertain hesitations towards cooperating. The last driver had made that mistake, and was purged immediately, so when they had been given this promotion to the main carriage driver, the memory stayed sharp. Waving once to the large fox, the driver started his horses up once more. A few nickers and whinnies were accompanied by some shaking of manes, and then they were off to the offices.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.
Kazumi lead the procession of children to the gates of Konoha, where she over heard several shinobi mentioning that there had been a royal procession that had come through earlier. Kazumi resisted the urge to run ahead and check, she would see for herself soon enough she supposed. She turned to Hozuki, even as she waved at the ANBU at the gates o they could be let in, "Children refugees, we were told to assist them by the Hokage. Do you think we should wait for Ryoku?" Of course, she had no idea that the title of Hokage had been passed on to someone else in the time they had been gone from the village, or that the new Hokage might not even know about the mission they had been sent on. She was merely operating on the knowledge that she had. She hoped that their Sensei was alright, but the children came first. At least she knew her little sister was alright. That was one load off of her mind.
The second sentence was directed at her little sister, and her partner, so she waited for Hozuki to respond, even as she reassured some of the more frightened children.
OOC:
Passives: • Moku Soujuu [ Wood Manipulation ] : Ability This control allows the Senju to bonsai existing vegetation as though it were rapidly growing. Not only can it take any form the user desires, but it can also be shifted around as if it were free from the ground. It should be noted that one can also manipulate wood they themselves have made, and it must be done while holding a double hand seal. Additionally, any wood that is being freely manipulated is not very solid, and can be broken or shattered as if it were completely natural, making it a poor choice for attacking or defending with. Should be noted that techniques can be made smaller while retaining their rank. ___ Rank E: Very small vegetation. ( Single leaves, petals, bits of bark, etc ) ___ Rank D: Small vegetation. ( Flowers, young growth, small trees, etc ) ___ Rank C: Medium vegetation. ( Bushes, patches of tall grass, etc ) ___ Rank B: Large vegetation. ( Medium trees, clearings, etc ) ___ Rank A: Enormous vegetation. ( Tall trees, fields, etc ) ___ Rank S: Massive vegetation. ( Elder, ancient trees, groves, etc ) • Requires [5] posts to learn, and must learn in order. • Freely manipulated wood has no chakra or stamina bearings in versus situations.
The family is one of nature's masterpieces.

Once they approach the gates, completely filthy and dirty, Mizu seemed more annoyed if anything. Her clones memories still haven't returned yet, which was concerning. Did they make it? Mizu, happy to be away from that, nuzzled her muzzle into Hozuki's hand as she gently pet Mizu. The only living being she cannot get mad at. Honesty, Hozuki wasn't looking forward to that jackass b*****d of a Hokage. He makes her pissed more than her own sister and brother. If that was possible. Her shoulders shrugged at her sister's comment about Ryoku. "If he's alive, he'll be here. If not, then that's another shinobi lost, as usual. You know. The life and death of a shinobi." She said with a sarcastic tone in her voice. But then she grimaced as her clones memories had finally came back to her as she groaned softly, the way they died... ********. That hurt. "About time.." She muttered under her breath as she rubs her stomach and chest. The words that the girl had said, were now in her mind.
Whatever.
The ANBU tells them to drop the kids off of the hospital and that the Hokage was busy at the moment. When the Hokage was no longer busy, one of the ANBU will fetch both of the girls to go report to the Hokage. Fine. Though honestly, Hozuki was not looking forward to seeing that a*****e of a b*****d again. She hated him. "She'll take the kids to the hospital." Putting her sister on the spot, Hozuki already walked away from her with Mizu by her side.

Current Attire: Same in the picture. Black strapless sports bra around her chest and black shorts with fishnet that reaches to underneath her kneecaps. Typical black shinobi boots. Currently both Hozuki and Mizu is covered head to toe in mud. You will be able to see her tattoos that is not blocked by her clothing.
Her tattoo takes an image of an elegant vine that starts on her left inner thigh, then it seems to make it's way to her right side, perfectly matching the curve of her hips as it branches out and a final branch curve to the top of her right breast. The vines are black but it has small patterns of the beautiful toxic plant, Nightshades and the lovely brilliant moonflowers, perfectly matching the vine. It was not too flashy but it still demanded to be called elegant and beautiful. Konoha Headband Location: Around her upper left arm
Making his way into the gates, Yasu could not suppress the soft yawn that escaped his lips. He was no where near juiced enough for this mission. Though he did not complain in the slightest, at least not verbally. As he neared the gate he was met by an anbu in a fox mask who extended him a small scroll and informed him of the contents. With a polite nod he took the scroll and removed his headband and handed off to the anbu,"Hang on to that will ya. Gonna need that back at some point. Take care foxy." Stuffing the scroll into his jacket he headed through the gates without turning back. After all if he turned back he would likely lose his resolve to complete this mission and if that was the case then he was already dead. Though he did do one thing in particular. Once he crossed the threshold of the gates themselves he stopped and took a deep breath," Tsukuyomi. Watch over the girls and keep them save. May their nights be warm and their days safe. Keep them upon their paths and do not let them stray and give me the strength to do what you was created to do. That is all I ask." Having said his prayer Yasu dug his heals into the ground and took off at a nice run on his way towards the outskirts of the land of fire.
