Suichuugakure: The Great Arena

Subject: Suichuugakure: The Great Arena Mon Jan 07, 2008 12:05 pm

This large cave is removed from the rest of the village. The floor of this cave in swirled with a glittering black mineral giving it a very dark and grim aspect as it slopes down in the middle.
The walls are full of tunnels carved into the rock leading to observation booths molded out of the very living rock.

Gigiri stood silently in the Umikages private box waiting for the Shinobi of the village to answer his masters summons. This was taking rather longer than he had expected, but then again this was a sudden thing and several of the villages ninja were out on missions. He would continue to wait, certainly someone would arrive soon.

Reizo Kyouryoku stood silently before the entrance to the vast stone Arena resplendant in his great white and sea foam Kimono which was only draped over his shoulders. Beside him stood his two most skill attendants they too wore the colors of the great Kyouryoku clan, there heads and faces hidden behind white veils. He was not entirely sure why the Lord Umikage would wish all of the villages Shinobi to attend a spur of the moment meeting, but if it happened to be a test of skill he was going to be prepared. At the moment he could sense only one chakra inside the building and it was certainly too strong to belong to any of the ninja he was familar with, it made sense that it would either be the Lord Umikage or his faithful bodyguard. In any case he decided to simply wait outside until he was certain that attendance would be worth while.

As his amber eyes scanned the area his thoughts began to wander towards his latest read. He was not even finished with the book and he already had an amazing grasp on its teachings. It would not be too long until he would incorperate it into his unique style.

Standing in front of the great arena was Yuni, along with Ude, who was standing behind her. As she looked at the arena, there was a surprised look on her face, but it was not because of the structure before her.

She and the man standing next to her had disappeared from the training area, and had arrived at their destination so quickly. It was not exactly teleportation, but Ude was moving quite quickly. Before the genin would even know it, they were at the arena in record time.

"Yay! Yay! We're here! We're here!" she said excitedly as she jumped up and down. The odango girl's excitement would be questionable right about now. First of all, no one has no idea as to why the Umikage had called all of the shinobi to a meeting. For all she knew, something bad could be happening.

After finally settling down, the girl turned around to face Ude.

"What do you think we're here for, Ude-san? Maybe it's going to be some mission! Oh! I've always wanted to see the surface!" By "see the surface" Yuni meant that she wanted to see what was above the water. According to what she had been told, the surface was very nice.

The red-clad jounin had to wonder why a genin didn't know that technique. Wasn't it a requirement to learn to use the Shunshin no Jutsu* to graduate? Suichuugakure's school system was really starting to fall apart... He was starting to compile a list of complaints to hand to the Academy when suddenly the odango-haired girl spun around to meet his previously wandering gaze.

"Actually, from what I heard from a messenger while out on my last mission, this may very well be a dangerous mission at the surface. I guess you've never seen it before. If you get a mission outside of Suichuu, make sure to close your eyes before you go though the exit and keep them closed until they slowly adjust to the light. It's a lot brighter than the torches we have down here. From your skin-tone, you must be native born. Make sure to cover yourself up as much as possible then, you'll burn easily on the first visit."

Ude wasn't to interested in the "world above", since he was born there anyway. However he felt bad for those with very-light skin such as Yuni's. If they did go on a assignment together, he made sure to bring sunscreen and aloe cream. Just about all the shinobi he had been partnered or teamed with forgot to take caution and ended up with sunburns. Seriously, what were they thinking?

Casting those thoughts aside, he averted his attention to the things around him. A richly dressed jounin in sea-green and white. Kyouryoku clan, pompous as ever, but this one seems strong. His eyes are like mine... As if responding to his thoughts, his ninja-ring weapon, the Shirogane started to pulse. She'd like to fight him as well. Then the Umikage and his follower of a bodyguard were located in their special room overlooking the arena.

"It seems we're missing quite a few people. I swear the Hokousha and Hissori kids would have been here. Maybe they're out on another assignment and haven't come back yet? Honestly, they can be horrible kouhai**."

Shunshin no Jutsu- Dashing with a boost of chakra, but appearing as disappearing in a puff of smoke.
Kouhai- Underclassmen

"Well it would appear as though the commoners are begining to gather." Reizo said softly to himself as he spied the two newcomers out of the corner of his eye. He ran his right hand through his rust colored hair as he sighed, "It's about time."
The noble man had little patients for those deemed below his station. As far as he was concerned they were little more than fodder for the devices of people like himself, and this was at there best.
He could not stand the idea of being placed on equal ground with these people if it was in fact a mission that Lord Umikage had instore for them.
He decided to wait a little longer to see if anyone else answered the summons, he doubted it.

Ude didn't know how long the Umikage was going to wait for the remaining shinobi, but he didn't want to have to stand around the whole time. How Yuni was so excited he didn't know either. The jounin took another look around and decided it was best that he took a seat in one of the stone bleachers. He just leaned and relaxed. If you're not doing something, then why not? Ude took this as an opportunity to try to spend time thinking.

As the young shinobi entered the large arena he was surprised to see how many faces their were presently.

Hayaku then walked forward past the Umikage looking only at his bodyguard whom seemed very strong but it was obvious that he was a good choice for a guard, Hayaku could tell be the way the mans posture.

As Hayaku found his spot in the arena with the other shinobi and waited for the Umikage to speak.

The Lord Umikage had entered the great Arena only a short time earlier. He now stood before the four assembled shinobi and looked them over.
‘I knew that we were facing a lack of shinobi, but who would think that it had gotten this bad. Oh well, they will have to do.’ He thought this to himself as he cleared his throat to speak.
“Welcome, and thank you, great shinobi of Suichuugakure.” the aging man began, his voice full of pride and power.
He continued, “I have called you all here for a very important reason, to help restore prominence and power to our once great village. You are all no doubt aware, just by simple looking around you, that our village is in a poor state. The balance of power is shifting and, my friends, we are on the loosing end of things in this world. The villages’ number of capable shinobi is rapidly falling and those applying to the academy on a yearly basis are in a great decline from years past. I, however, have conceived a plan to help our proud home from becoming fodder for the ambitions of the other hidden villages. First however,” He paused as he reached into his robes and removed a small scroll with a list of names.
“I shall hand out team assignments for this task. First off, on team number one, is Gami, Ude and Hanoumi, Yuni. The two of you shall form the spear head of our operation. You shall receive back up from team two which is, of course, Kyouryoku, Reizo and Hayaku, Mizu.” The old man rolled the scroll back up and placed it back inside his robes.
“Now for the task at hand. I am sure all of you are familiar with the Legend of the Great Beast Kaibutsu and the destruction he brought to this land in times past. You all, undoubtedly, also know of the five great shinobi who sealed away this beast and locked him into five separate pieces in there weapons. With this knowledge in hand the task before you shall be relatively simple compared to that which those five great shinobi undertook so long ago. You, my friends, shall retrieve those weapons.
Any questions so far?” The old man asked this with a friendly, grandfather like, warm smile.

Hayaku stood in good posture with high respect for his Umikage, as the man spoke he could feel the concern in his voice.

As the Kage finished speaking allowing questions Hayaku spoke up.

"Excuse me" He spoke "but do we currently know where any of the five weapons are located?"

Amaki had arrived at the arena a little bit after Reizo. He looked around at the arena and its great size and structure. Amaki started to wonder where the Umikage and why he wasn't here yet. He was the one that called the meeting. Amaki was about to walk out of the tunnel he arrived in, when he saw Yuni and Ude appear at the arena entrance. He walked back into the shadows the tunnel provided and watched the girl jump up and down with excitement at arriving at the arena. Amaki sighed. He really didn't like Yuni or get along with her. Every time she would she him she would call him "Daku-Daku" for some reason. Amaki guessed it was because when they were younger, she kept bothering him, so he pulled her pigtails. He would do the same thing each time she bothered him. So, that was probably her motivation. "I don't have time for this. He better get here soon." Amaki said under his breath.

Before long, the Umikage arrived and looked around at the shinobi present. Amaki was going to reveal that he was also present, but stepped back into the shadows of the tunnel once he remembered Yuni was there. He listened to the Umikage talk about the shinobi present were called to help restore the prominence and power to the village. The Umikage then announced the team assignments for the mission. Amaki thought about if he should tell them that he was there or not. He was already supposed to be on his way to visit his friend "on the surface". If he didn't arrive she would think that he forgot or didn't want to come and she'll be mad at him. Amaki didn't want that to happen and besides, if he was on the mission, he could see her for a bit, and when he was done, come back to stay for a few days.

Before he could say anything after the Kage finished and asked for any questions, Hayaku had already spoken up. He asked if they currently knew where any of the five weapons were located. Amaki, with his arms crossed and eyes closed, got up from leaning on the tunnel wall and walked to the entrance. He opened his eyes and waited for the Umikage's answer.

Subject: Re: Suichuugakure: The Great Arena Sun Feb 10, 2008 8:21 pm

Ude was explaining what to do at the surface if Yuni ever made a trip there, but of course, the kunoichi was not listening. In fact, she was completely ignoring his words as she looked around at the settings. The young girl has actually been in here before, and the glittering floor was pretty appealing compared the other rocks in Suichuu.

The Umikage finally made an appearance in the arena, and began to speak. Of course, with her short attention span, Yuni was not paying the slightest bit of attention. She was still distracted by the surroundings. It was when her name was mentioned when she decided to pay attention. The girl stood up straight, appearing as if she was listening, but who knows whether she was or not? At the mention of the Great Beast, her mind had quickly drifted off to somewhere else. Who is Kaibutsu? Yuni had never heard this name, and if she was ever told about this, she was most likely not paying attention.

Now it was question time, but before the girl could speak up, someone had beaten her to it. As the older shinobi had a small conversation, her teal irises began to wander again. She could not help but spot a boy around her age from the corner of her eye, just standing there by the entrance. Yuni smiled as she turned back to the adults, but before anyone would realize it, the genin had wandered off somewhere.

"Daku-Daku! Mitsuketa!" Yuni's voice echoed throughout the cavern as she suddenly popped up behind the boy she called "Daku-Daku." The boy would most likely be frightened by her sudden yell.

Amaki had looked at Yuni. Her eyes were wandering around, which means she was not paying attention. Amaki sighed at this. Yuni could never pay attention when someone was talking. Amaki knew this all to well, for he always told the girl not to call him "Daku-Daku" and she does anyway. He looked back at the Umikage, then at Hayaku. Amaki's eyes couldn't help but wander over towards Yuni's direction. When, he looked she was gone. His eyes scanned the room for her, but couldn't find her.

Amaki then sensed Yuni come up behind him, but when she yelled it caught him off guard. He quickly turned around and put his hand over her mouth and pushed her into the shadows of the tunnel. "Will you be quiet?! The Umikage is talking to some one, so you need to pay attention to what he says. He might say something important about the surface." Amaki said whispering to her. "But, I guess I shouldn't expect for you to ever be quiet, let alone pay attention since you never seem to do that." He said as he took his hand off of her mouth. Amaki turned around and leaned on the tunnel wall again as he was doing a few minutes ago. "Anyway, how many times do I have to tell you to stop calling me "Daku-Daku"? It's annoying." He said and then sighed. "Well? Lets' hear it. What do you want "noodle girl"?

Subject: Re: Suichuugakure: The Great Arena Sun Feb 10, 2008 11:35 pm

Yuni could do nothing as a hand covered her mouth and shoved her into the tunnel. She blinked as Amaki scolded her about paying attention. Listening was definitely not her middle name, but if the boy's hand covered her mouth any longer, she would have licked it. With her mouth now free to speak, Yuni pouted in her childish way.

"I was only going to say hi, and ask why you're way over here..." she said with the pout still on her face. "How can you hear anything from way over here? You need to move closer, Daku-Daku!" The girl then smiled as she spun around. It was obvious that she was excited about something.

"Hey! Hey! Did you hear? Umikage-sama gave Ude-san and I a mission to get weapon thingies! I think we get to go to the surface! I'm so excited! I can't wait!" Yuni giggled as she hopped up and down slightly. Her voice was still a little loud, but not as loud as the echo she made a minute ago. She finally settled down and spoke again. "Hey, have you ever been to the surface, Daku, Daku?"

Amaki at Yuni, who was pouting. "Hi." He said after rolled his eyes and sighed as he continued to lean against the wall in the tunnel. "I'm over here because I feel like being over here." Amaki said before he heard her call him "Daku-Daku" again. Now he wanted to yell at her real loud telling her to stop calling him that. Amaki refrained himself from doing so by closing his eyes. "I can hear just fine over here. I don't need to move, noodle girl." He said as he opened his eyes and saw Yuni spinning around excitedly.

She must be excited about going on a mission to the surface. Amaki thought to himself. Right after he thought that, Yuni answered the exact way he thought. "Yes, I did hear. I was paying attention to what he was saying this whole time unlike you." he said as he again closed his eyes while still leaning on the wall. Yuni again was excited and was jumping up and down. Yuni had again called Amaki "Daku-Daku" and when this happened for the third time, he opened his eyes to reveal an angry look in them. "I'm going to tell you this one more time, Noodle Girl! Stop calling me Daku-Daku. I'm not that close to you for you to call me by the nickname you made up. Only one person can do that." Amaki said be he looked at the ground. He looked back up and looked Yuni in the eyes. Amaki didn't feel it was necessary to be telling her what he was about to say, but it was an answer to her question. No. I've never been to the surface, but I was supposed to have left to go there today." He answered with a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice. Amaki really wanted to see his friend after not seeing her for almost a year.

Subject: Re: Suichuugakure: The Great Arena Mon Feb 11, 2008 12:38 am

"Wha? Does Daku-Daku not like me?" Yuni asked with yet another one of her infamous pouts. Her eyes grew big, and sparkled more than usual. She had her right index finger lightly pressed against the skin next to her pout, with her left shoulder slightly raised. She was trying to look adorable but sad, like a lost and abandoned puppy. People would usually fall over when Yuni looked like this, due to the fact that her cuteness was overwhelming. Keeping her current expression, the girl spoke again.

"We've known each other for years, Daku-Daku! Why can't I call you 'Daku-Daku'? I think it sounds cute!" What ever the older shinobi were saying in the arena, the two genin were definitely not paying attention now. Yuni was too busy fooling around, while Amaki was a little preoccupied with the nuisance that is Yuni.

"And how come you never told me anything about going to the surface! I want to come with you!"
