Kusa Sword & Hiramekerai sword WQ

The heavy down pour only seemed to make the situation just that much more depressing that what he had actually thought it would be like, the rain only seemed to preset the actual reality of what was happening in the world at this time and in a smaller and more important sense what was happening in Amegakure. As he moved through the streets in and out of alley ways and directing people through the streets to try and save as many as he could. All over the city he could hear them, the drums and beats of the rumbling beasts hungry for war and blood, the sounds of the battles, the screams of the dying and stench of the dead were everywhere. though he tried not to panic there wasn't much that this genin could grasp. Though the rain masked it, he couldn't help but allow himself to cry, the pain of loss that was going on and in the eyes of everyone as they ran past him away from the village , each one haunting him and giving him more and more to fear as he tried to close in on the battle, to him he never knew this hell but he was now thrown amongst it. Kain Uchiha was now a genin of Amegakure involved in a war between Amegakure and Kumogakure, they never saw it coming but it was here and he would have to bear it on his shoulders.

He tried moving through the streets to reach the battles but every time he reached one he was only met with the very gruesome sight of death, some by ninja tools others by jutsu but either way it touched him through to his soul. Tears fell for each lost comrade and even more fell for each civilian that he saw suffering from wounds or the emotional pain of losing someone lose to them. Blatently moving his head he rushed forward but seemed to only stall as he tried to listen past his own crying for the next battle that he might be able to stop or help with. 'God! Damnit! damnit! damnit all! Why?! What is going on? why is this happening???? THESE PEOPLE DIDN'T NEED TO DIE!!' An explosion caught his attention and he perked his ears and wiped his face as he quickly moved towards it. His initial start off speed would surely and drastically slow as he grew closer to the battle that he heard from a distance away. The brutal thumps soon came to his ear, he jumped from the streets onto the buildings to a roof on the adjacent side of the battle. Ducking down and peering over the ledge he looked out to the battle to see a fellow amegakure shinobi taking the brutal beatings from two kumogakure shinobi that had killed the rest of his squad, the remains of the squad were elsewhere but he saw the scars on the buildings from the battle, the embers of a fire jutsu still lingered in a broken window into a store.

The beating lasted awhile until the body limped lifelessly, he couldn't take what was going on and he had only just watched another comrade have his life taken from him too soon, way before his prime. 'DAMNIT! FUCKING COWARD YOU COULD'VE SAVED HIM!' Kain beat himself up for his own fears, but the brunt of his own punch alerted the enemies. They were no genin that was for sure, they seemed like chuunin but he couldn't be too sure. He peered out in time to notice one withdrawing a kunai and jumping over to him, his instincts told him to run, but his legs wouldn't move. The body of his comrades all rushed to his mind, blurring his sight with the bodies and his ears with the screams, he was shell shocked, but he had no time to not do something "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" The young uchiha roared as he formed seals and leapt out to meet the chuunin, but instead of combat with ninja tools he used jutsu! 'Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu' From his mouth he engulfed the chuunin in flames, the screams of the shinobi came clear to his head and only caused another tear to fall from his face. Kain landed on the ground as he bypassed the burning Kumo nin. With his sharingan active he stared down the Kumo-nin, who was still in awe from the move from the genin.

With his two tanto's criss crossing on his back, the amegakure shinobi was finally fed up with his comrades dying in front of him, the look on his face was none too friendly and this made the Kumogakure shinobi smile and laugh. Kain raised his finger and pointed his finger at the shinobi, his head tilted back as his reddened eyes looked to the shinobi with such genuine hatred. "You......I'm going to attack you, AND KILL YOU WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE!!!!" Kain roared at the Kumogakure shinobi as he charged him. Though his eyes screamed of hatred his heart knew only pain and sadness at the moment, he charged into battle not for revenge but for the future of amegakure. He wiped his tears and removed one of his tanto's and poised it infront of him with such an intense hatred that he held no remorse over the other shinobi he had killed. "You Kumo-nin will pay for your invasion.....the pain you've caused will be unleashed upon yourself ten-fold.....by my hand!" The Ninja smirked even laughed a bit in the face of the shinobi, or rather genin, that had just killed his friend or teammate in a spawn of firery fury and revengence. "You think you can kill me? i doubt it.....your a few years too young!" Then in a flicker he withdrew a kunai and appeared once more behind Kain, "DIE!"

Kain could barely move in time to even block the attack, he struggled as he brought the tanto to his side to deflect the attack from the chuunin. As he was slashed at Kain spun attempting to kick the enemy in the head, however his opponent was more than just a simple strike, he had enough force to send Kain flying with just the attack that he had done. 'shit! fuck he's strong and fast, but i'm not too sure on his maneuverability, but we'll see as it comes down to the wire, hopefully I'll be able to survive until then.' Kain skid across the ground repeatedly knocking his arms and ribs against the wet concrete until he was able to regain his balance and prop himself up, utilizing a minimal amount of chakra to catch a foot hold. But as he rose himself up to the occassion he was met with a kick to his chest, knocking him back onto his ass. 'Fuck! at this rate!' Barely able to keep up, Kain flipped himself back onto his feet, barely in enough time to avoid two kunai and deflect another. He quickly checked his surroundings, his opponent nowhere to be seen until a few seconds before too late. From above the enemy came crashing down unto him, however, Kain's quick notice allowed him to jump at the last moment as he withdrew two kunai and tossed it at his opponent. But the attack would prove feeble as the chuunin knocked it out the way as he charged at Kain. Letting his anger control him, Kain launched himself at the enemy, forming a single seal then jumping into the air to reach a weapon's clash with the enemy as he came down unto him. But the chuunin was more than prepared as he knocked Kain back then spun once to roundhouse Kain in his stomach.

Kain took the hit and flipped while within the air, spinning twice then landing but it wasn't long before he fell to one knee breathing heavily as he had sustained some damage from the enemy, who seemed to be having the time of his life as he toyed with the genin. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Amegakure genin scum! You actually thought you had a chance against me? Hahahaha..............tch, don't belittle me you little shit!" The chuunin spat on the ground then neared Kain with a kunai prepared to drive into the genin, Kain looked at the enemy through blurry eyes, he had taken an ass-whooping like no other but he wasn't going to give up anytime soon. "Bring it on you fuck head! You attack my village and then expect to defeat us? don't be so naive! Our pride is larger than any weapon or jutsu you could bring against us! So just shut up and accept my blade as a blessing that it's all that you would recieve." The Chuunin showed a disgusted face against the statement of the young genin, the uchiha could only smirk as he rose to his feet and began stumbling, but steadily walking towards the enemy. "Just fucking die!" The chuunin flickered at the genin, plunging the kunai deep into the gut of Kain, who grunted and pulsed forward. "D.....die!" Poofing, Kain turned out to be a long, the handsign earlier was for substitution, the substitution object being the body that the Kumogakure shinobi had last killed, and the enemy figured this out too late as Kain came from behind the shocked chuunin with his tanto, streaming chakra Kain merely turned it to the side and cut the shinobi in half, blood spluttered from the dying chuunin's mouth and wound. Kain showed no remorse as he let the rain wash the blood from his face and blade. "Told you, you were going to accept my blade as a blessing......" Kain looked to the sky, his face solemn not taking pride in the life that he just took or relishing in the moment as he had slain the shinobi that had killed many amegakure citizens.

Wiping his face Kain simply sheathed his sword, the two kills that he had just gotten didn't even seem to phase him but they made him realize something that didn't sit right with him. He was too comfortable with taking a life, the sickening thought that he would be one of the people that felt no remorse over the death of another only made him want to throw up to mar the scene of his comrade in arm's glory filled battle in which they fought valiantly. "I.....I can't do this.....I'm not strong enough....not yet. " With those words being said, and despite the battle that was still going on, Kain had to leave the scene and in turn leave the village even if it meant that he would be abandoning the people that needed him, even if it meant that kumogakure would over take the village and annihilate the people closest to him. Without so much as even backing his clothes, Kain jumped onto the closest building and left the immediate scene, he moved through the village, hiding and moving in and out of shadows and alleyways as he soon found an exit, one that he had noticed many times as a kid. Kain had to leave, his sharingan still active the shinobi left the village he had called home, the place of his birth and the place of his parents death, but before leaving he made a solemn vow. "I will return, and my vengeance shall bring with it everlasting hell for my enemies.....I swear to this." Kain then disappeared into the heavy rain outside of the village.

As he moved through the Rain country he couldn't help but think back on what could be happening in the Hidden Rain village, he knew that only destruction and death made up the village. The lone shinobi had only his current weapons and food packs with him as he left, his long black and red tinted hair blew with the wind as the rain left him only to be replaced simply by powerful winds. All over he could see the war torn area that had been the hidden rain, he knew that this was only going to further drive him into a madness that nobody could understand unless they themselves had lost their senses to battles that their own village couldn't handle, the size of the invading force was far larger than that of Amegakure and he knew that it was only a matter of time until everything was over for the small village. But Kain relished in hopes of one day avenging everything that he would have lost in the attack, he would destroy everyone involved, the entirety of the Village hidden in the clouds would feel the wrath of this Uchiha, and he knew that there was only one way that he would be able to do something about the destruction, and that was to use an instrument of destruction against destruction itself. And the only one that he had knowledge of that came to his mind was the legendary sword of the heavens.....Kusangi, the fabled blade that was wielded by Konohagakure's own rogue sanin Orochimaru. Kain sighed as he was tired, but with a town nearby he knew that he could get some rest there and so he set his sights on that lone town for shelter. As he reached the outskirts he noticed a hotspring, but he had little to no cash for it, sighing he simply walked past it into the town.

"Without a pause, without hesitation, my dedication is steadfast." Aisu murmured as he walked along the path which was bereft of purpose. Each step sank his feet deeper into the grime sludge of the floor. A constant squishing sound as the bottoms of his shoes trudged mercilessly on the soft ground. With a longing sigh he looked up, utterly bored and the humidity did not help his mood. The sun was practically staring directly at him; the thick canopy seemed to only have holes where he was walking. As he breathed he felt as if he were taking a long sip of some hot water, moisture came from every orifice and dripped in streams off the broad leaved plants.

After a few hours of walking along the same trail any sense of direction had been lost. The path had started to harden, no longer as mushy when his feet made impact. It was not something to be pleased about but it made the raikage smile regardless. Within the confines of his cape he adjusted his pouch that were on his left side, making sure that they would be easily drawn in a combat situation. Aisu was always paranoid about unprecedented events. Upon further exploration of the trail he came upon a large boulder that was on the side of the path. Inspecting it with a mild curiosity he sat climbed on the top, his foot clacking as the impact of shoe hit stone.

Within seconds he had made himself at home on the rock, sitting Indian style as he pulled out his pipe from the inner confines of his robe, filling it with a couple of leaves and lighting it. The flame was nonexistent the weed was odorless as well as smokeless. Aisu smiled, “Commercial grade shinobi dope.” He snickered a bit as he pulled the wicker hat over his eyes and took a puff on the pipe. The dope was not nearly enough to get him high but just enough to make him happy. A shadow cast over his features and his green camouflaged robe made him hard to spot amongst the people of the town. He slanted his eyes, keeping a look out to see if a stray animal or some weird bug would catch him by surprise.

As the minutes passed and the sun faded the town started to become a very creepy and looming place. Aisu was now even harder to spot in the dark. Despite the entire weed he had smoked he was perfectly fine, this due to the fact that he has been in worse shape before. Time appeared to have been absorbed in a limbo; he blinked once or twice, almost asleep from the boredom, the weed, and the oncoming nightfall. However the omniscience of the night’s presence jolted his senses, making him more paranoid as he gazed out into the distance. The raikage could hear footsteps approaching, the outline of a man present ever so clearly.

The world was seemingly a place that left people on their own to fend for themselves, if one person were a fish others would be sharks for those who were sharks there would be octopi, in general it was a live or die situation even when you least expected it, though he was too naive to understand this sentiment, Kain knew that in this world he would have to look to himself for the answers to survival even if he was a bit of an amateur at this kinda travelling, being that he was travelling alone to some unknown place in a land possibly far far away or perhaps not even around the corner. Though he couldn't plan a picnic or paint a pretty picture he was pretty good at predicting the weather and he could smell the slight aroma of rain on the wind, though it gave no warning with clouds or lightning it was evident that it was going to be a morning shower this afternoon and for such he would need an umbrella, something to keep him steady in this town until the shower was over. "Infinite in mystery is the gift of the goddess, We seek it thus and take to the sky, Ripples form on the waters surface, The wandering soul knows no rest." Quoting a citation from a novel that has had it reputation smeared and dragged through the mud, he still kept the words within his head. Sighing the young shinobi strode through the street, by passing the people, some who were kind enough to allow him the headway, or others who would just knock him into the alley. From the corner he was knocked into Kain peered into the darkness to see little to nothing, the lights around him would spring to life as the sun met its match to a cloud.

Kain could do little against the cloud's tears that were ever so present as of now that he had to take refuge in an adult premiere showing building, something that was unfit for someone as young as he was. Though it was a serious time in his life, he couldn't help but notice the sounds coming from behind him, his head slowly turned as they became clearer and clearer, though he didn't want to acknowledge it there was sure enough some funky stuff going on back there. His face turned red and snapped back to look into the streets as a steamy and sweaty young couple came from the darkness through a door in which he caught a peek at the screen. "Oh look! Its a little person! Aaaah he must be here for the new movie too! hahahaha" Kain didn't want to speak hiding his face from view to avoid being identified, but the lady wouldn't stop talking and the guy just continued to laugh and point seemingly under the influence of some kind of drug, judging by the smell it was some kind of weed a commonly found, grown, cultivated, and sold herb that when smoked would produce after effects that could be classified as trippy or even as a relaxant. 'Friggin druggies and their sex parties and fun and orgy stuff.....can't wait to get out of this place!' It was then that the girl wrapped her arms around him and hugged him close as she laughed, she rubbed her hands over his chest and hair. "Your cold! Here let me warm you!" As her hands moved, Kain couldn't take the pressure and jumped out into the rain, turned around, yelling at the lady. "Im a Kid you know! And a ninja and I can't be getting molested by you! Don't you have anything better to so such as going to school, or cooking, or not being here!" The man and the lady looked shocked, but the guy quickly lost interest and put his arms around the girl and began to walk off, but not before the girl got her last words in. "Well if your done being an asshole you can go ahead and continue being a pervert......pervert!" With that they walked off and left Kain to himself.

The two left and Kain continued to walk down the street in the opposite description despite the rain that was ever present but was beginning to fade. "Gah! cant even get out of the rain without being called a pervert.....Can't wait until I leave this town...." The Rain had just stopped and somehow Kain was able to think clearly again "My friend, your desire, Is the bringer of life, the gift of the goddess." Once again a quote, Kain walked down the street holding true to his goals, as he looked he noticed that there was another street to his right, he walked past it slowly and turned his head to take sight of another person, sitting on what seemed to be a boulder, a pipe in his hand he seemed to take joy with it though there was no smoke. This intrigued him a bit but he had places to be, but this seemed to be no coincidence and he felt compelled to persist and ask questions that he needed to have answered. "Sir, I was wondering if you would know the way to The land of Rice Patties...." Kain took a few steps closer towards the person who wore a wicker hat and smoked a pipe, though he looked as if he had nothing to be afraid of, he kept his distance and calm about him to think clearly for situations that might inquire him to perform some things. Still, he couldn't help to ponder if he was making the right decision to emarbark on this venture. 'The most likely place that it would be at would be Sound Village but I don't know if that would be the place it would be at, but its the best guess I have and my only lead to where this damn thing might be.' Feeling compelled to ask questions about the legendary weapon but he didn't want any competition for it, or even to let someone know that he was looking for it.

Aisu’s limbs were getting stiff from sitting in the same position for so long. Moisture had managed to seem through everywhere and it was becoming quite the issue. Salt from the sweat leaked into his eyes and cause him to blink several times in annoyance.

The night sounds of the town made you wonder what myths were coming to life, but with the existence of chakra a lot of strange things had been created. It was rumored that chakra could alter the fabric of the atoms, turning once humble people into miserable excuses for flesh. He laughed at himself realizing the hemp had made him a bit more paranoid than usual. If there was anything in this town to worry about it would either be hunter ninja or the foliage.

Using his right hand he grabbed the rotted wooden handle of his pipe and lightly tapped the contents out against the rock’s face, leaving a black glob of weed excrement. As he did so he looked down to investigate the stains. His hat fell off his head, while reaching down to grab it before it hit the wet ground he noticed something fidget in the distance.

He knew it was something out of place, because the people in this town were so much at home that they were able to sneak up on you without making a single noise or a disturbance. Situating his hat upon his wet, silver hair he gazed out a bit, searching the surroundings for anything out of place. Then, he noticed something coming towards him. The figure’s garb was quite strange, even as a ninja he had not seen such apparel. Then the figure spoke to him almost as if he were expecting a warm response in return. The Raikage peered at the man with an amused expression before speaking. "Yes I know the way, but what's in it for me if I tell you?"

He thought of his next move, hesitant to provoke something that could be avoided. As a shinobi you could not afford to stack your rep with dead bodies or unnecessary conflict that would attract heat to your location. Aside from the moisture, Aisu really liked it in the town, it was seldom that someone would find him here and yet this odd thing was steadily coming towards him. It seemed without purpose, not walking to fast or to slow but quick enough to get the job done. Time passed and the figure came close enough for him to discern what it was, it being a man. He smiled, wandering what his job may be in a town such as this…then again being a ninja was not all it had been cracked up to be.

With resentment he decided the best course of action was to remain where he was seated. By the clothing he could tell this man was a serious fighter and that he probably had some kind of plan…he started to chuckle a bit...Wondering if this guy was as paranoid as him...Wondering if the man thought that he was going to ambush him. While it wasn’t likely that Aisu would even waste his time doing such a thing he could not help the past experiences of other ninja. With a shrug he waited to see if the man would come closer, though just in case he prepared to roll off the back of the rock to doge any preemptive attack. So for the time being Aisu just waited for an answer to his own question.

As he stood, he understood the gravity of the question that he was asked and felt even more like a little child thanks to the fact that he had asked a questions and hadn't expected to have to do anything in return but he was a child and had no information nor any cash to give the man as he had wanted something in return, an eye for an eye even equivalent exchange all meant the same thing he would need to think of something fast so that the man could have something to bargain on, but he wasn't sure whether or not he had something worthy of giving the guy, but that would be on his head to have something of such value. With his head in the clouds he searched high and low of his memory warehouse to find something worthy of the man's information but yet he found nothing instead. He sighed he knew nothing and couldn't offer anything so he would probably have to find someone else to give him the information he was seeking. 'Damn I have nothing to give this guy, I mean I could look into some kinda smoke related drug if thats what this guy is into. Just looking at him makes me think he's some kind of pot head.....the way he's dressed and the way he speaks seems to the same as a pot head.' Kain shook his head not really having much else to think about the stranger other than the type of person he is or the way his appearance was. "Well, I don't really have much to offer, as a matter of fact I have nothing at all to offer you in return for the information. " Kain sighed and looked to the sky though he didn't really want to but he had to throw something on the table, he then looked back to the man. "How about some new type of smoke-based drug? I heard that its also grown in Otogakure and that the effects of it are unknown but some say that its the most potent ever cultivated." Kain wasn't the one to try and bargain as he usually takes the things he wants or buys them, since he was a shinobi he usually worked for them but this time there really wasn't much to go around and there didn't seem to be a need for shinobi in this town.

The interesting thing here was that Kain's right hand wouldn't stop figging, he didn't know why but there was something about this guy that Kain couldn't shake off, the feeling of even being this close was so peculiar, he wanted to do something but a display of what he's able to do might just make things a bit more difficult for his mission. Kain lowered nothing but his eyes staring at the ground as he tried to recall an event that had taken place that could give him a bit more of the leverage over this guy that he could possibly use to gain the knowledge he sought after, but all that he could think of was the pages of the poem book he had once kept. "Even if the morrow is barren of promises...Nothing shall forestall my return" He perked up, his eyes gleaming with knew found hope that might have the answer to what he sought after, though it was a long shot and only a rumor he had once heard his father speak of, he thought it was all about the reward at the end of the tunnel. "Actually! now that I think about it, with the information you grant me I shall give you what information I know about a secret treasure lost in the world through the ages! Information for information as it is, equal exchange is the best kind and the only kind that we should know, or rather how it should be." Kain smirked as he hoped that this information would lead the other person to feel the hunger of information and yearn for the adventure that could be his and the reward that was once sacred to another nation. He relished in the fact that his first option might just be the best as he watched the other guy tap the pipe he had on the boulder that he was sitting on, it seemed that he was a smoker as the black stuff of resin fell out.

'Dreams of the morrow hath the shattered soul. Pride is lost. Wings stripped away, the end is nigh.' The passage led him to believe that this was a fated meeting, though the light faded as he night began to set in, he could still see a glimmer on the horizon. Kain stood firm even as a powerful gust of wind rocked the area suddenly, though he should have expected it as such as there was a slight halt in the wind, you know the whole quiet before the storm type of thing. As he stood and looked to the man, he had a feeling that this guy was a possible nut job, the subtle way he moved and spoke pointed to it, that or the pot-headedness of it all. He tilted his head to the left and examined the man, while he was doing so he couldn't help but let his eyes look both ways around him letting his suspicious nature loosen and note the fact that there was no possible way that that he could've been ambushed or set up this time, there was no possible way that his natural enemy could've located his position or even know that he was here, he made sure he covered his tracks, but as he thought about this he couldn't help but think back to his village and if it held out long enough for this, he surely hoped so but he didn't want to think about something that might not be an option such as keeping an invading force the size of Kumogakure's at bay for a long time, there was no way that his Amekage would be able to fend off all of Kumogakure by herself, hell there was no way that she'd be able to do so if the Raikage entered the fight and jumped her with the other jounin of Kumogakure, this was a realistic thought knowing that Amegakure didn't have that many jounin if any but it was ok as he was sure to get his revenge upon his return. 'Even if the morrow is barren of promises, Nothing shall forestall my return.' He smirked as his head shifted back to its original position and he placed his hands in his pocket awaiting the answer from the other guy.

After he thought he was a good distance away from the other man the ninja jumped off the rock, he pulled his camouflage cloak closer about him; he hoped it would give him a decent advantage. It was dark now; pitch black and both of them were hard to spot. He grimaced, he did not know the specialties of this ninja, and it would be ironic if his strong suits were tracking and night hunting, whereas he was just a close quarter’s expert. Based on how the man had started the answer he assumed that he would offer up something well. However this assumption was proven dead false and instead he was hinted at being a pot-head, he needed to see more action of this man’s habits and mannerisms. "I'm not a pot-head if that is what you are assuming mister whatever your name is."

Quickly thinking of a few ways to lure the antagonist closer he came up with a bit of a risky plan. However there were not many choices in this dark town. Quickly allowing all the current people to dispel he motioned towards the other man. He pointed in a different direction, making sure the intention and hints to where he was going were known. While the people were away Aisu set up a sort of perimeter around him so that he could know if they were being watched or not. He hoped that his new found friend would lure him with something more than weed, based on how preemptive question was answered was that this guy was very paranoid and would unlikely show his position.

The ninja walked around for a bit without doing much, checking a few areas where he thought he mind find something, looking for some kind of disturbance in the natural balance of things. Despite all of his searching he could not find a single thing until a familiar boom noise came from the direction he had came from earlier, in the direction of the boulder. "Damn party crazy idiots....well this treasure you speak of does interest me indeed. So why not this, I go with you to Otogakure to help with whatever it is you're looking for and help me get that treasure you speak of. Deal?" Upon the night there were more and more booms and then sparks in the skies from whatever celebration was going on. Aisu was sure to keep this persoanlity portrayed as him, hoping that the ninja would go for the bait and agree. However he was sure some trick of such poor quality would probably work against this guy.

Aisu came close to the rock but circled to the right of it, examining the new wreckage caused by the vicious firework as he passed to the side of a series of bushes. He would try not to get spotted and try to spot the the troublemakers; during the meantime he was still waiting for an answer. the night was of course young but the sooner they headed out the sooner he would get his treasure. Of course, tripping over some sort of treasure that he wasn't sure if he would like was unwise. With a sort of anticipation Aisu awaited to see if the strange man would agree to his deal and him out also.

Darkness was now among them and as shinobi it was a no brainer to realize that they would naturally blend into the shadows as they were trained from their younger years to do so, to become one with the shadows was to be a ninja. But it seemed that the man was too used to the life and made a scene of it and simple dove into it rather than letting it engulf him as Kain was considering doing. The man backed up into the darkness, his image unable to be seen thanks to him also pulling out a camo coat something that Kain completely forgot about and was something that was mainly used by genin which made him think that the guy he was considering going venturing with was a simple genin like him, but older. This was weird but Kain didn't know what to say to the fact that he blatantly called this man a pot-head but not directly, this made him think about the fact that this could harm any future relationship with his guy, but he digressed sighing as he figured that it would be better if he apologized if it was to ensure that he would get the information that he needed from the man. 'Damn I so don't believe in the fact that this guy is any kind of non-pothead but he would probably rather benefit me if I allowed him to believe that he was of course not a stoner, pot-head, junkie, or whatever the term was called nowadays.' Kain sighed as he ran his left hand through his hair after removing it from his pocket. "Sorry, I didn't mean to accuse you of being a pot-head, that was not my intentions.....but I merely used that as a way to obtain what I wanted from you in an honest fashion, since you do have a pipe and resin was coming out of it. So I assumed that you either chewed it and placed it there or had shinobi grade Mary J." Kain rolled his neck around and peered through the darkness, hoping that he would be able to spot the man from within the darkness, but to do so wasn't really a good idea and would only make him look stupid, to avoid losing equal footing in terms of respect standings, Kain had to revert to something that he was sure he was going to regret showing.

Closing his eyes momentarily, he would then open them revealing a redden glow of his eyes, with them he could easily view the chakra of the other guy, as well as what was going on. Kain quickly move to the brush that the other guy was last scene, using his natural abilities he found him but also found a few other people. Upon further inspection he was able to make out four guys and two girls, a kind of uneven prospect unless two of them were gay, either way it was something that he was accustom to seeing. 'I guess they're the ones who caused the ruckus over here, setting off firecrackers and disturbing the tranquility of this place while also managing to draw the attention of the man that I was trying to convince my new found friend.' Kain sighed as he looked at them then looked to the guy, his words still fresh in his head. "I think...............I'm not sure if it's a good idea but you know what, I guess its better than going alone to the place.....so yea sure lets go and do this. Forget about these bastards.....unless you wanna kick their ass, but I doubt that would be the best idea, don't wanna draw unnecessary attention." Kain stood up and blinked, deactivating his eyes. With that he left it to the man to choose whether or not he would be coming with him, Kain jumped onto the roof of a building and looked back to the area where the other guy was at an expected him to follow. But he had a thought in his head, he would rather eliminate a problem rather than continue to watch it, but he had to hold true to his own words, so in a display of his abilities he formed a seal with a single hand and with his other hand turned to the side he moved his fingers as the shadows around the people came to life, cawing and flapping enveloped the senses, the smell of birds, the sight of falling feathers and moving shadows, the feel of being surrounded, and the taste of fear. 'Hehehehe'

Kain smirked as he controlled the birds with his fingers, he was able to put the seal down and still control the birds, it was one of his favorite techniques. "This is my technique 'Swarming 1000 Crow Technique' so now you know one of my techniques so.....what do you think?" Kain smirked from the top of the building, still cloaked in the shadows the most that was scene was a slight outline of him. From above the building he could see down below to the people that had set off the firecrackers, it was a just desert for them since they ruined a good conversation, but they were the least of his concerns. "Mind if we get going?"

Aisu was already running towards the entrance of the town to leave while the other man was showing off his jutsu. After running for half an hour he reached the land of rice patties. Finally they had arrived in the area of Oto. It was a short distance since ironically the village was actually right next to the town to this part. But now that he was here, Aisu almost, sort of liked this place a bit better. Good light, not always annoyingly creepy and dark. That really doesn't matter, it was in the fact the last thing on his head right now. They had far more important things to focus on at the current moment. Apparently there was some kind of thing here that attracted his new found acquaintance. Probably because they were both eager to find a treasure that no one else could get. Sounds like it wouldn't be easy to find the iten but since arriving they were now just answering the questions on each others skills. "Alright now that we are here, I'll tell you that I am actually the kage of kumogakure. You must think its weird that someone of my stature would be going on a treasure hunt instead of doing work. My name is Aisu by the way."

Aisu set up his first ability that his bloodline granted him which was the power to sort of "see" the entire area around him. Once that was done, Aisu could probably pinpoint anything abnormal in the area and alert the new guy. Something was actually sleeping in the earth below them and it was fucking huge as shit he thought. Cracking his neck, Aisu continued on the border of thinking on a course of action. "There is some sort of huge snake or reptile thing below us. I'm not sure if this helps with your quest for whatever you're looking for. Just thought you should know." It was simply, like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Once they were all done then the fun part would begin, his smile evident as he thought of what he could acquire. "We should be quiet as to not wake up the creature sleeping below us." Aisu had just finished speaking when a rumbling sound came from the earth, the ground was shaking violently. The shinobi cursed under his breathe while the ground cracked then finally gave way to an abomination of scales that rose from it. It seemed that it would actually be time to fight the creature, he was not looking forward to it. "Get ready."

Kain looked for the other guy, but it seemed that he had the right idea from the beginning and he began to feel like a noob as he turned around kinda frantically looking for the other guy. He then noticed a fleeting figure through the darkness, he smirked as he then jumped from a few buildings through the town and then landed with a flip onto the ground, the night air seemed to grant him more enthusiasm that usual, but he had no problem with that as he hit the ground running. "Wait for me!" With the other guy just within sight he made his moves to catch up, streaming chakra through his shoes to increase his speed to run just behind the guy. 'Lets hope that this guy is actually taking me to the Land of Rice Patties, haha, hopefully he is taking me there and not to some sex shop to try and turn me into a slave for other exploits.' His thoughts raced as he moved his legs in a steady fashion to avoid over exerting himself and using up too much stamina, he watched his new founded friend's back with his sharingan noting any changes that might alert him to any sudden movements so that he wouldn't end up accidentally running into him.

The clanking of the swords on his back was a bit annoying but he could bear it for the fact of the matter was that he was about to get to business as they ran for a good amount of time but it seemed that it was about that time to get to their destination as landmarks changed drastically to what seemed to be that of the land of rice patties. But as things were getting good and he was enjoying the company of his friend his eyes widened and his face held firm the twist of surprise while his mind raced with rage, the enemy that had invaded his village, the leader simply within arms reach for revenge to be taken so simply. 'Aisu.....the leader of Kumogakure the Raikage right in front of me.....my village demands revenge! I should take it from him! I must take his life for the sake of my village....of my friends...my DEAD friends!' He sucked up his rage as he let the surprise fade from his face and the rage inside quelled as he forced it down. "Your the leader of Kumogakure? But i guess sometimes you have to leave to handle your own business then, heh, well its nice to meet you Aisu Raikage of Kumogakure. I'm Kain of uh...........Yukigakure! I'm on adventure leave from the village and have been for awhile now, a few months actually." As they ran it seemed that fate had come for them in a strange way.

Aisu claimed of a snake just below them and he knew that it must be the lair of Orochimaru the old leader of Otogakure and defector of Konoha, he sighed as he waited being told of the snake below them, but it was at that time that the monster snake rose from the ground obviously it was pissed. The Raikage told him to be ready but he was more than ready he was prepared to fight, not skipping a beat he withdrew his two tanto's and streamed chakra through them, focusing chakra through his feet once more he darted in a zig zag fashion, his sharingan swinging into activation as he spun around in an attempt to bring both blades to the chest of the snake just mere moments after it left itself open after rising through the ground to locate and get a sight on the two. His blades tore through the snake as Kain landed on the other side, he smirked as he turned around in time to watch the snake's upper body land into the dark abyss of the cave it came from. "I think that was a bit too easy don't you think?" Kain smirked hoping that his showing off his skills would be enough to gain some sort of trust and recognition from the raikage. He turned to Aisu with a smiles as his sharingan deactivated but only in time to notice the ground was breaking below him and he fell to the bottom, hitting hard ground next to a puddle of snake blood. "That wasn't the best thing ever........" Sitting up, he noticed a few barred doors and some larger ones that were broken open, he sat up in time to notice the gleam of eyes looking at him from behind the darkness beyond the broken barred doors. "What the hell?" only one thing came to his mind as he noticed the disaster..... zombies.

The two figures continued to walk at that same deliberate pace, seemingly in unison with each other. The rise and fall of their legs walking through the mud set a cadence to which their entire bodies seemed to move. Efficiency was the thing that some had forgotten about while others dwelled entirely in it. That is the one overruling law of the world--a world without efficient might as well not even exist. Aisu looked at the snake who seemed to be pissed but was then beaten by the new guy in no time at all. The weak of mind will die and the strong will survive. No better way to find the best of the best then to go out in the world and see those people for yourself. The Raikage was indeed impressed with the actions but nothing to get overexcited about.

Aisu then heard a second rumbling and hoped to any god that existed that it would not be more huge snakes. And to his surprise it was just the earth giving away beneathe the unfortunate man who charged ahead to defeat the snake. Aisu chuckled, it was better to at times to not just take action right way. The shinobi ran forward and jumped into the hole making sure to keep his knees bent to reduce the shock. His feet tapped the ground, a pungent-like stale smell hit his nose while groaning went on endlessly behind him. The Raikage turned around to find a group of undead creatures from hell limping towards him, his face went from amused to down right disgusted. "I wonder if this trip is really worth it." he sighed. After forming the necessary hand seals: Tiger → Monkey → Ox → Hare → Tiger → Ox → Boar, a point of his body began to glow, the glowing was coming from his palm, and it released a small circle, from which multiple spears of light formed and shot forth, shooting at the opponent with great speed and ripping the group apart. Aisu then put his down after dealing with the nuisance behind with relatively no trouble at all. A glittering figure shone off on the floor a few feet in front of him which he walked over and picked up. It was a key but he wondered what it was meant to open.

There was more than meets the eye in this cave, he looked and beheld a saddening blasphemy as the undead walked from the holes, stepping up quickly he stepped back, not out of fear but from sheer shock. Batting his eyes to adjust he confimed with his sharingan that the people indeed were dead. 'What the hell?' It was weird that someone would do something so cruel but it must be just the fact that it was the experiements of Orochimaru. "Bastards!" He watched as the Raikage didn't skip a beat and he went directly into the battling of the monsters. Kain's eyes widened at the view of the Raikage's jutsu, he could see why he had been able to become the raikage at this point, the jutsu he used seemed to be of incredible speed and was made of something he couldn't tell though he knew that it was a great jutsu the color of the Raikage's chakra was a bright one almost and not unlike that of. 'Light!.........does the raikage have chakra similar to light?' He smirked as he got some information on him, something he's sure not many people were able to do.

But the more amazing part was that the Raikage decimated the enemy forces, he sighed as he hoped there would be more for him but he merely shurgged. But then the raikage seen something and picked it up, a key, smirking he pointed to the few doors that were there about three of them. "Use that key to open these doors and I'll cover you." Kain formed a seal as from his sleeves flocked crows that flooded his form only to rise up into the air just above the cave and in their wake they left two other Kain's, crow clones. "Lets do this."

The figures continued to look at the clearing and the area surrounding it trying to discern any movement or evidence of an ambush. Seeing nothing untoward, but still being cautious, one of the figures gestured to the other to enter the clearing. The figure in front shrugged in response and continued its deliberate pace into the clearing. The other figure kept watch with his clones while Aisu dove into the unknown. A vague suspicion entered to the back of his mind that there was something or someone there. A predator of some sort, either resting or laying in wait to ambush anyone who walked in. The figure at the edge of the clearing walked forward to the first room to open it with the key. As the door creaked open there sat an empty room with bloody hooks and medical equipment about.

Aisu could only wonder and wonder if this trip was really worth but since he could find no reason to leave he kept going. Since he needed something to do with his free time, this adventure would help him out. The ninja closed the door and went to the next room to open it, a box sat on the floor with nothing more than a warning sign above it written in kanji. Aisu figured this was what they were looking for but then moved to the next room anyway to see what it had to hold. He moved to the last door and opened it, but this held nothing in it. Just bare and empty which only made him shut it that much faster and go back to the room with the box. Aisu picked up the long box and walked back to the clearing where the other guy was keeping guard. "We did all this just for a box?"

Kain's eyes widened as he moved to take the box from Aisu, he smirked as he held the box within his hands, the two clones of his came towards him but kept their eyes about them noticing a few lingering zombies coming from one of the large holes and without warning they swooped in swiftly eliminating the zombie, decapitating it and cutting its body in half with their tanto's. Meanwhile Kain opened the box, looking down he viewed a spectacle that he enjoyed very well. But the Raikage was curious but he didn't know how to let him know, but he couldn't hold this information from his and he knew that to do so would probably cause a negative reaction but if he told him it would also cause a problem unlike anything that he could handle, a possible fight with the raikage would end up in his own death for sure, but if he tried his best he might be able to damage the raikage if it came to that hopefully it didn't. "Not just a box...........but the Kusangi....." Kain withdrew the sword smiling as he held it and looked at it in awe, he moved it around but made sure to back away from the raikage when doing so.

"This sword is all that i've worked for..........thank you." With that he knew that he would have to give the Raikage the information he promies, he smirked as he placed the kusangi sword at his waist within its hilt. He sighed as he turned to the Raikage now and jumped backwards out of the cave. "Follow me Raikage! To the Land of Water, to retrieve something else thats well worth the travel......we'll actually, you'll have to lead the way to the land of water because I really don't know where it is.hahahahahaha" Kain laughed he was energetic from all that had happened, he waited for the Raikage's response.

Kusangi done 6660/6000 :]

Aisu could only wonder what this blade was that the man seemed so proud to have obtained from the deep depths of the underground cavern. The only way that blade could be special was that if it possessed special properties that no other blade on earth did. Although if he found out that it was just a regular old katana, then all hell would break loose. Aisu did not like to be used for trivial matters or thing that had nothing to do with him at all. The Raikage sighed and jumped on the walls of the hole before reaching outside to the clear sky. The sun was now setting and it was becoming dark but he was going to get to Kirigakure if that was where his treasure lied. "You sure do have a bad sense of direction bro. I'm surprised you were able to find your way out of your mother's womb. Or were you a test tube child?" Aisu liked to kid around with others but sometimes this also got him into trouble as well. The Raikage already began to speed off in another direction that he knew had to be the hidden mist village, after all it was posted that way on the town directory. He happened to take a glance at it while running out of the town but paid no attention to it, but now that information was actually useful. hours passed until they were finally on the foggy outskirts of the Mist village.

So here he was, Aisu Caelum, traveling to wards the mist village that had an everlasting gloom over the village for decades. Nothing ever changed in Kirigakure anymore...It was like the mist kept the any intruders out..but also kept the people locked within. The thought of liberation was something that came as rare as the changing seasons, when picturing the mist raising from the village for once. Many people cherished it..Hell, could you really blame them for loving it so dearly? They were born in it..Grew in it..It was like..another part of them. An extension of their soul, if one was to go the supernatural route. Though, Aisu, was never the type to waste so much thought on a subject such as this. It had only been recently that he had noticed how the mist chained one's own thirst for freedom.

The first sensation of his day brought the young man to life. A cold breeze had blown through the forest and swept across his body. A shiver ran down his spine, and moments later his senses jolted awake to cool caress of the wind. The forest had remained as it was. Other than the dim hues of sunlight trying to fight through the mist that heavies the air for any traveler. The beauty of it, was that in night animals were less likely to find you sleeping than in a clear forest. After rubbing his eyes with his right hand, the boy lurched forward and stood on the thick branch of oak. His previous nights travel had taken him nearly to the edge of the forest, and after doubling back he now had at least a few more miles before returning to the village square. A deep sigh was released, and the average height teenager jumped from the tree and dissipated into the fog of the forest... Several minutes later, a shadow began to emerge from the forests exterior, slowly walking out of the hazy mist and into a clearer vision range.

His eyes had narrowed to the ground, scanning the area for recent foot prints or signs of travel. Nothing showed a sign of anyone having followed them into the forest, and that had brought down his guard to about half awareness. While his ninja boots caused small clouds of dust with each step he drew, it became a mist of his own making from dirt particles and air. He seemed to get lost in this as he walked closer to the village, but the attention of such things quickly breaking when a noise startled him from about a little off to his right. A boy, with short black hair, and nearly blank blue eyes was rushing towards him. The second an alert was put up, his body's reflexes naturally kicked in and immediately began processing information. To anyone at a distance such as this advancing person was, Aisu's eyes would appear to be locked on the boy as a whole, no doubt a shinobi by the holster on his right leg. That meant this boy was right handed, likely if he was to project a weapon it would come from the left hand. The black Tabi shoes he wore signaled he was often moving at a quick pace, always suited for battle. On the teenagers hands were tattered gloves, made of what seemed to be leather. A symbol was engraved onto the metal plates above each palm. Further analysis showed that the way this boy moved, his shoulders were leaner than a full grown adults, and his stride left reason to believe that his intruders physique was based for more speed than bulk and strength. That wouldn't be a problem though, Aisu was well known as the fastest in his class generation. And since this boy was nowhere close to his level he felt no reason to hesitate. But before any action could be taken the boy fell down a foot away from the kage with what seemed like senbons and shuriken lodged into his back.

By the time his physical notes were mentally processed, an answer was barely formulated into his thinking pattern. How could one place such words into a sentence of true meaning towards a solved riddle? Trying to evaluate the tone of the black haired teenagers voice was impossible, due to the fact it was emotionless and bland. That meant no determination between warning or threat. Using the simple standard of an answer, a reply was given none the less to the plea of the hurt boy. If this advancing persons had any true knowledge of battle and intentions, they would know he wasn't trigger happy to throw it. Never attack without knowing intentions. "Who did this to you?" He said calmly, feeling an unease about the situation. Completely unaware of the shadowy figure coming from behind, he wouldn't know of their approach either until several seconds later, when the clumsy footsteps would be heard. It..bothered him..

Kain kept his distance from the Raikage as they moved through the lands, he had to make sure that the kage wasn't going to be led into an ambush on accident and be jumped though he knew he could handle himself Kain wanted to be sure that everything was alright. As they crossed through into the mist village area they had encountered another person, whoever it wasn't didn't seem to be in a good position as they fell down to the raikage, through everything he had to be sure that he was able to hold the Raikage's back. "Don't get too close Aisu....might be a trap." Kain spoke from behind the Raikage, hopefully he would be at ease and able to think rationally about the fact that he was going to help out a stranger from this close, it was weird but he had to watch trusting the Raikage to handle his business and he knew his goal was to cover the rear.

Kain withdrew the kusangi sword hoping he would get to use it sooner or later, he smirked as his sharingan swirled into appearance as he looked around, a few chakra signatures were able to be identified two within the forest and two underwater. "Theres four others around here." With his sharingan he had to capability of being able to identify the chakra natures of the enemies but most were consistent. "Three of them have majority water chakra and one has lightning chakra, the guy your holding also seems to have lightning chakra." Kain sighed as he waited, holding the kusangi sword with one hand he focused and prepared himself keeping his guard up.
