Naruto: Dawn of a new era.

Although it had been a long time since they began training their Justus, Keiko felt like she had made no progress. All she had was the basic idea, with no idea what to use or what to do with it; all she did in class or in her spare time was brain storm.


Heck, it bothered her in her sleep, and it wasn’t going away anytime soon. Continue on her mindless walk through the city she finally saw what she was looking for in an alley. Grabbing the round object, she headed off towards the training grounds to figure out how it would work.
 
Deep inside a forest under the watch of the Shuuhei clan, Akatani and his father were training.


Akatani flew to the ground after a solid hit from his father.


"You have mastered how to use the technique but you haven't perfected it's use yet." his father explained. "You still have a long way to go if you truly want to be a ninja." he added


Akatani just listened while trying to catch his breath.


"Listen Akatani, in battle, there will be much more harsher situations. The Mist of Deceit is one of the most basic techniques made by our clan. To truly master this technique, you deceive not just your enemies' sense of sight, but everything."


There was a disappointed look in Akatani's face as he stood up. "Let me do it again." he asked his father.
 
A loud smack resounded through the air seconds before Masa hit the ground, needles bouncing around her.


"Do it again. And do it right." Her father practically yelled at her hand still raised to strike her again.


Nodding her head, she stood back up, wiping blood off from the side of her mouth and held out a hand, as the other did the hand seals needed before her other flicked down before flicking back up as a needle shot out about a feet.


"Wrong!" Another, harder hit. "Again!"
 
Hao tried to figure out a way to make this technique more viable.


' Perhaps if I tried it on something else, that isn't made of iron or steel...it might have greater effect then. '



He quickly went to get some items that could prove useful in training. It didn't take long for him to come rushing back with a deck of cards and some pencils.


He grabbed one of the pencils and placed it in his mouth as he did the needed handsigns and then threw it as hard as he could at a treestump.


The pencil bore itself nearly halfway into the treestump before stopping. The effect was clearly much more effective, at the moment, on items that are of different density than iron or steel.


' Awesome, now to train some more. '
 
As Riyoshi looked around for his father, his sight glanced across the porch to his house. There he saw the kunai his dad was holding, just floating in mid air.


"I got you now dad!" Riyoshi yelled as he flung the shuriken from his hand and sent it soaring towards the house.


As the shuriken rotated with the increased speed, it curved upwards and missed the kunai all together. Striking the wall behind it, the kunai fell to the ground. As Riyoshi saw this, he donned a confused look before slowly walking over to the kunai that was now stuck into the porch floor. Bending down and grabbing a hold of the kunai, Riyoshi was stricken with a little bit of anger as he saw that a string was holding the kunai up.


Are you kidding me! Riyoshi thought angrily in his mind.


With a poof of smoke, a man appeared behind Riyoshi. Reaching his right hand up, The man grabbed a hold of his giant sword.


"Infiltration complete." The man said as to grab Riyoshi's attention.


~~~~


{ESME}


The same poof of smoke appeared 20 feet behind Masa. The same man appeared to be reaching up for his giant sword. Looking towards Ghoda, the man nodded quickly so that masa could not follow.


~~~~


{Red}


With a slight whistle, 6 kunai came roaring towards Akatani. There off in the distance behind trees, a man emerged. Reaching up and grabbing a hold of his sword's hilt, he removed it and pointed towards Akatani.


"Listen here boy! You will die now" The man said as he nodded quickly towards the parents so the kid would not notice.


~~~~


{CARL}


Moving out from behind the tree, the man grins at the young ninja. Reaching up and grabbing a hold of his blade but not yet removing it from his back.


"That there is a nice skill for a young kid. The man said as he took a step closer to Hao.


~~~~


{Kagu}


Leaping from the shadows, the man grabbed Keiko and covered her mouth with his hand.


[/b]"SHHH. Or you will die."[/b] the man said as he picked her up and ran with her.


~~~~


{Near}


Using his sword, the man cut all three knives in half before they hit the dummy.


"well well well, hello there kid." The man said as he landed on the ground.


~~~~


{Twisted}


Appearing in front of Neji, the man brought his leg up and kicked Neji in the chest. Sending him flying back, the man just laughed.


~~~~

neji being completely off guard and being sent flying back hits a tree and lands on his hands and knees. he coughs from being kicked and winded.


"Who are you and what do you want from me" he said to the misteryous man
 
Keiko couldn’t exactly keep quiet when grabbed mysteriously, she screamed against the man’s hand and pushed at him, struggling as he ran. She noticed she had dropped the diskette and was mad, she was hoping it could help her with shape. Channeling her anger at the person holding her, she tried to bite at his hand, or get a kunai out and stab him.
 
Hao was surprised to see the man appear out of nowhere. Not so much because he didn't know the man, 'cause there were tons of people he didn't know in the village, but because he was so immersed in practicing his jutsu that he forgot that he was at a public place.


" Thanks, it's not complete yet though. " He said, his eyes following the man's movement of his arm that reached around for something on his back. ' Perhaps the hilt of that huge sword ' he thought to himself for a second. But he assured himself that couldn't be, he's on village territory, there should be no enemies here.


" Who are you anyway? " He asked, he felt uneasy for some reason, perhaps because of the look in the man's eyes. He didn't know for sure but he thought he could see malice in them.
 
Ghoda blinked once, before nodding back, if the man killed her, he really wouldn't care. It would just be a cleaner blood line for them as a male would step forth and take her place.


Masa blinked a few times, as her father nodded, before frowning and looking behind her. Seeing the man, she blinked a few times before pulling out a few needles and taking a stance that was a mix between defensive, and being able to run away.
 
{Twisted}


Looking upon neji, the man reached up and took a hold of his giant sword.


"You do not need to know my name, for you will not live long enough." The man said with a calm tone that had a hint of evil intent to it.


{Kagu}


Arriving at a secluded section of the forest, the man let go of the girl and leaped backwards 20 feet. Reaching up and rubbing his hand upon his chest, he growled a little.


"You are going to pay for biting me little girl." the man growled towards her.


{Carl}


"You seriously do not have to know who i am. And that skill that you have, is pretty weak for a ninja."
the man said as he glared at the young kid.


Removing the blade from his back, he held it out towards the young ninja.


"I will show you a move that is truly worthy!" The man said as he gripped the hilt a little tighter.
 
neji got to his feet still equipped with his weapon and some armor pieces. he said to the man with a grin you could see through his mask "you think you can kill me, don't make me laugh." he prepared his stance with one hand touching the ground and the other at his side to fend off his foe.
 
Akatani barely dodged the kunais that flew his way by tumbling away. If he had noticed a little later he would've seriously been injured or worse, dead. He struggled to keep his balance as he landed and looked at where the kunais came from. There he saw an unfamiliar face. He looked at where his father was standing only to find him missing.


"tch." he found himself in a very troubling position. Logically, it would be very difficult for a child to fight an adult. Akatani was already analyzing the situation and looked for the suitable response.


Akatani picked up three of the kunais and hid two in his pockets. He held one in his hand and pointed it at the man. He didnt say a word but he had a serious look on his face.
 
" Jealousy-green is an ugly color " Hao replied at the man, who was obviously looking for a fight.


He took hold of the deck of cards and did the string of handseals to make the cards as hard and sharp as shuriken.


Without warning, since he was already provoked, he threw 3 shurikencards at the man and leaped back to gain some distance.
 
When Keiko was finally let go she landed flat on her face, although quickly recovered, rolling onto her back then flipping onto her feet. As the man muttered a threat, she drew out her kunai spinning it, annoyed at the stranger.


“Prove it” she noted,


Then firmly gripping the weaponry, she stood in a defensive position where she was, there was no way she could beat him. Maybe if she provoked him enough, he’d end up killing her and the kage would have him sentenced to death…if they found him…
 
{RED}


Tilting his blade downwards, the man stabbed the blade into the ground. Taking in a deep breath, the man did a few handseals, then exhaled the breath.


"Wind style, wind barrage." The man said with a calmed voice as a single ball of air hurled towards Akatani.


{TWISTED}


Looking at neji, the man laughed. Taking the blade off his back, the man stabbed the blade into the ground. Inhaling a deep breath, the man did a few handseals, then exhaled the breath.


"Wind style, wind barrage." The man said as he launched a single ball of air towards Neji.


{CARL}


Rotating his blade out in front of himself, the shurikencards collided then dropped towards the ground. Dropping the blade slightly so he could see the kid had gained some distance, he smirked.


"A true ninja does not distance himself, they get in close and finish off the opponent in one shot.....Like this." The man said as he gripped the blade with both hands and leaped towards Hao.


{KAGU}


Smirking at her remark, the man inhaled a deep breath while forminf a few handseals.


"Wind style, wind barrage." The man said as he launched the ball of air towards the ninja.


{ESME}


Kneeling down on the ground, the man placed his hand upon the ground in front of himself. Taking in a deep breath, then exhaling, the man reached his free hand up and gripped the hilt of his blade.


"If you are going to have that stance, you better be ready to fight." The man said as he looked up towards Masa with a look of killing intent.


{Backlash}


Turning to look at the man, Riyoshi was shocked to see an ninja this close to his house. Was this man a true enemy? Only time would tell. Looking at this man, Riyoshi cringed at the power that this man displayed. Seeing this man this close to his house and not fear his father, just freaked Riyoshi out.


"What do you mean, infiltration complete?" Riyoshi asked as he charged his chakra in his palm.


"You need to not ask questions! You and your village will die here and now!" The man yelled as he removed his blade from his back and leaped towards Riyoshi.


{BETTSY}


The Onikage walked towards the kid and stopped in front of him.


"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be training for your final exam?" the Onikage said as she looked upon the kid.
 
Neji quickly jumped to the side around a tree and moved up the right side of the trees toward the man as he popped a pill into his mouth building up his chakra.
 
" Tssss "


His eyes intensified and his brows burrowed themselves as he looked at the man leaping in the air. He quickly threw 3 more shurikencards at the man's face, forcing him to block the cards with his blade and temporarily blocking his line of sight.


Hao took this opportunity to leap forward himself and kick the man with all the might he could muster in his stomach before pushing himself off the man and doing a backflip to land back on his two feet.


" A real shinobi thinks before attacking. " He stated with a grin.
 
Not even sparing a look at her father, Masa nodded her head. She was fine with this, she had been itching for a fight for a long time, and sure, she had meant someone from her class and her level, but this worked too. And if she lost, well then she had nothing to fear...
 
:: Tasuki jumped as the Onikage talked ::


Tasuki: "s-s-sorry!"


:: she dissapeared in a "poof" and re-appeared at the traning field ::


Tasuki: "okay... focus on the center point.."


:: she ran up to a training dummy, she jumped up, and did a spining kick, popping it's head clean off ::


Tasuki:"yahoo! i did it!"
 
News had started spreading out over the land. The Hokage from the leaf village had fallen ill with a disease that no medic could cure. And not only it's leader, but the people itself, everyone, from new born infants, to the most healthly fit ninja. All were victim to it. But no one could figure out what this pandemic was, or why it spread so fast, or where it was going to go from there.
 
{Everyone will need to read this. This includes EVERYONE.}





As time past and the ninja fought against the kids, he felt his chakra deplete faster then normal. What was it about this village that accomplished to bring the assassin to his knees? Falling to his left knee, he looked at all the kids. Placing his hands together, he did a couple of hand seals, then slammed his hands against the ground.


"Wind style summoning!" The ninja said as a large vortex formed in the sky.


As the vortex formed, it extended from the sky and connected to each and every one of the children. With the swirling wind rushed around the kids, their visibility was cut down to nothing. All the kids could hear was the laughing from the man.


"What the hell is this technique! I can't see anything!" Riyoshi yelled out as he grabbed a hold of a couple of kunai.


Just as he finished his rant, the vortex ended and he appeared in an open field that was just outside the village. Looking around, he could see all his other class mates and the ninja that brought them here.



"You! What is your problem! What do you want!" Riyoshi yelled out at the man.


 
:: Tasuki raised her hands in hesitation and fear ::


Tasuki: "w-whats going on here?... i'm scared"
 
Keiko wasn’t sure if she won the battle or not, wasn’t running away a form of giving up? But she wasn’t going to complain, the new area he had brought her had all her other classmates in it.


“Where are we!?” she questioned for all of them,


Looking around at the surrounding forest, she had no idea where she was and it seemed like the kage didn’t know they were gone either.
 
Neji apearred in the area with the other classmates and was slightly puzzled at why they were there but he kept his eyes glued to the man and stayed in an offensive stance with one hand to the ground awaiting him or one of the others to make a move.
