Kohaku Fujioka - Team Kazou
Okuni Tanabata - Team Miyako
-shortly after the genin tests.
Okuni hummed as she walked up to the stall, the sun setting. It had been a good day, she’d passed her test, was looking forward to the night, and a good ending to the day would be with a good Manju.
“How’s it going, Honda? Like the doomsday prep packet I gave ya?” She said cheerfully to the owner. He just sighed and held out his hand for payment as Okuni reached out for the last Manju on the rack.
Another, smaller, hand was already grasping the bun. A girl with silvery hair stood beside Okuni, she held a doll that was shaped like a small dog against her sorry. “Sorry,” Kohaku said as she picked up the treat, “but I was here first.”
“No, you grabbed it first, I was here talking to the owner first. It’d only be polite to let me have it.” Okuni’s smile didn’t fade, but a dangerous aura came from here. The owner, Honda, rolled his eyes, and pulled his cart back slightly, already guessing what was about to happen.
Kohaku’s lip twitched in a smirk, “Can’t help that you were being slow.” The small genin stuck out her tongue as she finished speaking. “You’ll just have to go to Soyokaze or something.”
Okuni’s smile twitched. She noticed the headband on the girl, and suddenly any guilt she might have been was swept away, she whipped her ponytail at Kohaku’s wrist to force her to let go of the manju bun, and reached for it herself.
“And you’re not clever enough with enough limbs! I’m a survivor, it’d be a disgrace to lose here.”
In the background, Honda sighed as he switched his ‘open’ sign to closed.
A small gasp escaped Kohaku’s lips at the sudden attack, the sweet bun slipping from her grasp. Her lips quickly curled into a snarl as her fingers twitched, the dog in her arm opened its mouth and fired two senbon for Okuni’s hand.
Okuni flinched as the two senbon pierced her hand, but she didn’t back down, this was a now a fight for honor! Okuni snapped her head forward, her ponytail threatening to wrap around Kohaku’s neck. Okuni then tried to backhand Kohaku’s shoulder with her pierced hand, clenching her hand into a fist.
Kohaku’s puppet hit the sidewalk the moment the senbon hit their mark, the girl’s fingertips alight with chakra. Though before she had a chance to move, Okuni’s hair coiled around her neck with a snap. She bit back a gasp as something sharp bit into her shoulder, sending her stumbling to the side. Her fingers twitched, sending another short volley of senbon at the other genin.
Okuni grunted, falling to one leg as the other was pierced by Senbon. She pulled on her hair, pulling hard on Kohaku with her ponytail, and slamming her palm forward at her stomach.
“Don’t take on a stronger ninja!”
Okuni noticed that: A) her punch seemed off… B) Everything was spinning. However, her sleeve followed her punch, making missing a moot point, her sleeve would slap Kohaku with as much power as the punch anyways.
“S-stronger? We were in the same class!” Kohaku’s puppet jumped up, trying to latch onto Okunki’s sleeve and slow down the punch. As soon as the command was given to the puppet, she produced a kunai from her own sleeve. If Okuni wouldn’t let go, maybe the threat of a haircut would make her.
The threat of a haircut did spur Okuni into action. She whipped her hair, to send Kohaku flying by the neck and into a nearby stall.
“I became stronger the moment you tried stealing from me!”
Okuni grabbed the small little puppy puppet, and threw it for the touchdown in distance down an alleyway, though the force caused her to fall over, poison now in her veins making standing very difficult. Or moving.
“Gah!” Kohaku attempted to drive her kunai into the road to slow herself, but quickly found out she lacked the strength to do so. The small genin slammed into the cart and fell to the ground in a heap. Everything was spinning, she already felt sick. It was only two of her senbon, that her own poison would have such an effect on her…
She groaned, trying to push herself up on shaky arms and reach into her pouch. “Riku…?” Bleary jade eyes tried to search for the missing puppet.
The sound of a register springing open filled the air like the din of a bell calling for the end of a match, change was exchanged and the prize was taken, Ryoken stood with the manju in his mouth, happily chewing away as he stared at the two, his change in his hand.
“Wow, you two fight really well!” said the young man through bites of manju. “Not sure what your fighting over but pretty cool moves!”
Okuni’s jaw dropped as she turned to see Ryoken eating the object of their desire.
“The survival doesn’t go to the strongest, but the opportunist… Life of Anarchy… page 3…” Okuni said slumping her shoulders. She struggled to stand, but stumbled over to Kohaku, offering a hand… without pins in it.
“Well… that options out the window. Want to get Mochi?”
At least Okuni knew where she stood with Kohaku and her trying to kill each other earlier, and it made things much easier in her mind.
Kohaku warily eyed the offered hand… hands… spinning hands. Shaking her head - and immediately regretting it - the genin shoved a small pink vial in Okuni’s hand as she stood on shaky legs. Grabbing another vial, she downed its contents with a grimace. Why couldn’t antidotes taste better? “What’d you do to Riku?”
Okuni downed it as well, trying to think. “Punted it…. That way! I think Just in case, let’s go find it.”
The smaller kunoichi gave her a mortified stare before running off in the direction Okuni had pointed. Perhaps staggered like a drunkard was a more appropriate term. “Riku…!”
