The Fifth Takikage: Zō Kawaguchi
​

The time of momentary silence between a response and his words to the pair of men outside his door had been filled with seconds of feint hope that something exciting would happen. Of course the man didn't wish for harm to come to others of his village or for anyone to truly know how to enter the village, in order to engage in such a act of infiltration and a potential assassination attempt on himself life. But it would be quite exhilarating for the Takikage and somewhat of a boost allowing a elevation from his slight noticeable aura of boredom that called his face and body home. It was just simply too quiet and too peaceful for one man to take, not that he was complaining really as the peace was a good sign for his people only issue was the role he agreed to undertake four years ago which didn't allow for much travel and missions for the Takikage or any village leader really. But all this was came to a halt when his ears took to the familiar voice of Ryohei upon the mans entry to his office accompanied by Chiruka.

His eyes soon focused on the pair as he lifted his head and sat back in his chair, accepting the greeting from one of his personal guard with a smile. A interesting man who's Kekkei genkai was rather curious and intriguing, but what was truly a interesting part about him was the seeming inner struggle with another side of Ryohei yet despite it the man proved a worthy shinobi in his own right and valuable guard to his person. As the man entered and greeted with a smile and nod while speaking on the morning, Zō returned a smile but without a nod as a slight kink in his neck proved preferable to going without a nod, likely a result of his morning and angled variations of where he placed his head in comparison to his neck. "Morning, Ryohei....." He began with a slight pause greeting the bowed Chiruka as the man entered and spoke up. "It's been too peaceful, dull...... But great for the people and the village itself. Still part of me... wouldn't mind a attempt on my life, you know just to liven things up a bit." The man chuckled softly in reply making it hard to tell if he was joking or not, though Ryohei likely could tell after the amount of time they had known each other. "But what of your morning Ryohei? "

Truth be told he like doing his role and title yet at times he missed his more active years. Thus he took to using odd hopes of something happening to liven' mood and rejuvenate him a bit, make him feel more useful and alive now that his anbu and jonin years and etcetera were behind him now. But upon responding to Ryohei he then turned his eye back toward Chiruka, a curious man, Zō wasn't one to judge but it wasn't often you found a man wearing women's clothing, least not without reason, well reason that was more expected then what he thought might be Chiruka's, yet he wasn't sure what that might be. Zō never did quite feel it right to ask or how to ask exactly without offending the man, he could only ever come up with more blunt and straightforward ways of asking him. But still that aside his attention was toward male and offering a smile, the guy seemed nervous and full of his own kind of inner turmoil, or was it lacking of confidence in himself? Perhaps he was wondering something? Though despite how others might view Zō's choice of jonin to lead one of this generations genin squads, he liked the pick and saw the potential within for personal growth and the fit as well as growth of his new genin team. "Ah, Chiruka.... I'm glad you chose to stop by the office, saves me from tracking you down and speaking to you before your arranged meeting with the genin squad you now have in your capable hands." He spoke while offering a small reassurance. " No doubt you're excited or perhaps nervous.... Maybe both?" Zō questioned aiming to pinpoint the jonins seeming concerns and issues with some investigating of his own. " Feel free to share anything that may be on your mind. It's a open forum inside these walls here after all." Zō added straightening the files on his desk and making them nice and neat before offering the genins files to Chiruka.

Chiruka
A small strangled sounds made a bid for freedom from his throat before Ruka choked it back down. Share? With the TakiKage?! What if he laughed at him? What if he didn’t agree and had him stripped of his rank?! Not in this life time! Ruka could not go back to Seduction missions, not on his poor anxiety ridden life! Blushing awkwardly Chiruka slowly crept forward to accept the files, happiness at earning a Genin team fluttering up in his being and pushing out the worry and paranoia. A small tentative smile curled his lips as he looked over the names of his students. A burst of joy shot across his heart . He was finally doing it, teaching!
“th-th-thank y-you T-TakiKage-s-sama! I-I won’t l-let you down!” He stuttered , joy swimming in his eyes and threatening to spill down his cherub cheeks. It was then that a thought crossed him. A thought that really should have happened far sooner and possibly (but not likely to) motive him to have come in sooner.
Just what time was he supposed to get them?
Freezing slightly , Ruka slowly felt his head dropping as the thought rang in his head over and over again
Until at last, Ruka felt as though he was sinking slowly into his own pit of despair...
“A-a-ano, b-but w-w-when w-was I s-supposed t-to M-m-meet them?!”

Ryuichii Hideo
no sooner had the words “Idiot” left her mouth did an oversized Genjutsu Kunai stab him in the chest, said man choking on whatever sly comment that might have left his lips. Gasping and whimpering a dark fog of gloom began to form around his head whilst he sent big tears eyes her way.
“Rui-Chaaan! You...you don’t mean that right? I only had our best interest at heart I swear!”
Hide whined. All the while his heart began to race, and his adrenaline spiked. Because well fuck. Of course He would get Uzumaki Kamui...oh yes The TakiKage was probably shitting himself from laughing so hard . Was it all the letters he sent? Or that one time he showed up late for debriefing? Or possibly the five mission reports he had yet to turn in? What could compel that man to put him in this sort of situation?!
And for Kami-Sama sake, did Rui get shorter?!
Still frowning petulantly, Hide slowly skunk closer, before raising a large calloused hand to the top of her head. Then to his head. Then back again.( A brief flashback flitted across his distressed mind, one of a very vague threat involving the safety of his legs...) Before finally patting her boredly atop her silver locks.
“no I think you just got shorter”

Misae
"Today's nowhere near over, Misae," the Kunoichi Elder spoke to herself as she jumped from post to post, counting with each leap.

"Four-five-six-seven-eight-nine-ninety-one-two-three-four-five-six-seven-eight-nine-five hundred..."

Landing in the middle of the random arrangement of twenty or so posts, Misae lifted one foot up, "lightly" slamming it down on the ground and causing all of the posts to fall over, having planted them loosely in the ground to begin with. "Agility and stamina, done. Next up, strength and endurance..."

Placing her palms together, Misae began channeling Nature Energy for a moment, causing her features to change. Replacing the rabbit ears that had been atop her head until now were a pair of lion-like ears, with a tail to match. "Focus on controlling my strength, and... jump...!"

With a low crouch, palms still placed together, Misae leaped high into the air, leaving the ground slightly cracked. After reaching a good distance up, Misae's feet floated up above her hear, the woman starting to fall head-first to the ground. "One... two... three...!" She said as she approached the ground, swinging her right foot downward and smashing it into the ground. The result was a loud crashing noise that could probably be heard from the other side of the village, as well as a rather large crater. Fortunately she'd been in the training grounds, away from any buildings or other structures, as then things would've probably fallen off of shelves and dirt roads would've been ruined. The worst that happened here was a crater and a cloud of dust, which Misae could pretty much fix with Earth Release.

Placing her palms together once more, Misae's ears turned back to their normal, cat-like form, all the while her lion tail disappeared.

"Alright, strength's looking pretty good. Now if only I didn't have to clean this up for anyone else who comes here to practice... Perhaps I'll leave this for Hideki or someone to do something about, and instead go see what some of our promising young Shinobi are doing."

Hanabusa Imadori
humiliating, embarrassing, mortifying.
All these words described what Hanabusa Imadori was going through right now. Her little episode in the market earlier , where heads seemed to explode from the bibs of peoples neck. Blood had rained from the sky she could taste the coppery fluid on her lips, her tongue! No matter how many times she tried to tell herself that it was not real, no matter how many times she shouted ‘kai’ The terror did not end.
Until it did.
Imadori was crying into her blood soaked hands, her grief and fear crashing like waves over the anger and helplessness volcanoe inside her, then it stopped.
The blood vanished and people’s heads miraculously reappeared unharmed.
What.
The
Actual
Fuck.
Rage built inside her, swirling like a tsunami ?
The whispers that spread and swirled around her threatened to send her spiraling into a deep pit of despair. Blood seethed underneath her skin, jabbing and protruding in some places in attempt to break free.
she needed to leave. Preferably before she started splitting heads from shoulders for real. There was only so much the Hanabusa could handle, especially considering she hadn’t completely mastered her emotional control yet. Even under the tutelage of her clan head. So she fled. Sprinted from the streets with harsh tears blurring her eyes and blood pounding in her ears. She fled to the training grounds. And almost immediately upon arrival, split her skin open to call upon her Bloodline limit. Letting it destroy and rip through the , already destroyed, ground and posts. It was only when she slowly began to calm down did she realized...there was someone with her.

Ryohei closed the door behind Chiruka and merely went to stand besides the Takikage like always. Though most of the time he did it discreetly, but at random times like right now, he would be present. Ryohei gave a small chuckle as he rubbed the back of his neck, "I'm sure you would enjoy an event like that Takikage-sama." He knew it was a joke, though most others would probably panic at the words their Kage just spoke aloud. Ryohei gave the older shinobi a respectful smile as he replied back, "my morning has been well, thank you for asking." He didn't do anything particular worth mentioning honestly. He was always in the shadow of his Kage after all.

"Hmph, why don't we just attempt to take that old geezer's life?" Ryohei could literally feel Ryuhei's annoyance in the back of his mind, but the golden eyed male simply kept his smile in place despite his thoughts speaking out otherwise. Thankfully, even the brash Ryuhei wouldn't dare do such an act against the Takikage. He may say such things, but the darker half of Ryohei wouldn't...not when he discreetly admitted respect to the Kage. Ryohei remained silent as he just stood there, allowing Zo to do his job as he spoke to Chiruka. He tilted his head towards Chiruka as he noticed the younger male looking quite pale. He gave the light haired shinobi a gentle and reassuring smile as he said kindly, "you shouldn't have anything to worry about, just relax." Hopefully that did the job of calming the panicked shinobi down a bit. [/div][/div][/div][div class=name]Tenra Ryohei[/div][div class=img]

She turned her head to the side as she saw Hideo bring out his puppy eyes while looking quite tearful. Unfortunately, that won't work on the female ANBU. She let out a sigh, wondering why she was placed on the same team as him? And this would be her first official team too...suddenly noticing movement out of the corner of her eyes, Rui watched with careful silver-blue orbs as Hideo slowly made his way over to stand in front of her and Kamui. She shifted a bit closer to the arm of Kamui's as her eyes narrowed slightly. What was he doing?

Watching him carefully, Rui blinked for a few moments as she did not except to feel a sudden weight atop her head. Huh? One blink...two...wait. What is he doing? She stared up at him as he raised his hand from her head to his then back to her once more. Hearing him speak finally after all that he just did...Rui felt her eye twitch for a brief moment. She glared up at him as a visible pout was on her lips, "what.did.you.say?" She could not have gotten shorter!....that was just not...nope. No! It is not possible! She shook her head slightly as her pout only increased in size before muttering out, "meanie..." she paused for a moment as a sudden thought crossed her mind.

Looking over at Hideo, she stared at his face for a while longer before asking, "Hide...you're not captain....right?...no that can't be. Never mind, forget that I asked you that." Rui let out a slight huff before turning her attention back to Kamui. She tilted her head in silent question, was he the captain? Because she for one was not the captain.

Ryuichii Hideo
yet another Arrow stabbed through his chest, one with the words “Unfit“ on it. Hideo staggered slightly, his dark head dropping and his aura of gloom intensifying. Doomed...he was doomed. He was about 59.788% sure that everyone was going to die. Him specifically of a heart attack if he had to feel this kind of anxiety sloshing around in his chest every.Single.mission.
No...no he needed a nap. Preferably in a nice sunny spot where he can watch the birds go by and eat the shitty bugs that buzzed around.
“I could too be captain...have some faith~”
He whined aloud, now if he could just figure out how to get a transfer then maybe his beloved family could live another day.
Sighing with much put upon depression, he pouted and weakly Head his arms out wide.
“ne M’sorry for saying the truth Rui-chaaan~ “

The curiosity this man invoked was rather high all things considered. He seemed off about overseeing his first squad of genin, a bit nervous, a bundle really seemed to be all a flutter within the jonin yet despite his efforts to calm the man it was for not. It seemed the jonin didn't wish to share with the Takikage and instead only thanked him for the opportunity and assuring he wouldn't let the village Head down while giving a bit of a stutter as he spoke to the Takikage, only adding to Zō and his wonder if the man was going to be alright moving forward without sharing his concerns with those present in the office, but he was perhaps just the sort to handle his own business and in his own way and that Zō would just have to respect while giving him the chance that was surely appropriate for the jonin at this given time of life. But atleast a sense of joy could be seen in the jonins eyes even if his manner of state differed at times during the converse and overall meeting between the two men concerning the genin files. However it came to his attention that Chiruka had either forgotten the time in which he was to meet his team and begin their journey together or hadn't picked a time and was panicking over the matter now? Either way it added a small smile to the Takikages face before he closed his eyes and nodded. "Normally that time is decided by the jonin sensei, but I'm sure you'll find them a'waiting your presence nearby the academy or wherever you may have chosen otherwise." Zō responded keeping his smile in tact and opening his light colored blue eyes. "I'm sure you'll find them soon enough however, but still congratulations Chiruka! Im confident in your ability to mentor these young shinobi and help them enter our world..... Keep that mind, would you?" Zō offered in continued statement speaking more on the mans abilities rather then his own confidence in him but whichever worked in helping calm and assure the man would also do fine. Perhaps also the words of Ryohei could help soothe the mans inner struggle of sorts?

"It would liven things a bit, wouldn't it? And not just my day but yours as well, Ryohei." Zō replied with a small chuckle rising from his chair and stepping away from his desk. "Ah, your welcome..... Perhaps it's times we step outside and find something to increase the pace of today before I tire some more and fall asleep in the chair or something." Zō added taking a step toward the door with a look toward Chiruka (if still present) and Ryohei. "Any ideas?" The man thought aloud and asking for suggestions since Ryohei would be affected as well. Perhaps one idea was to see what exactly Misae had gotten up to this morning or perhaps take a wander outside the waterfall? The latter atleast would increase the odds of excitement through enemy engagement but other idea could sound just as good too.

Misae
"Something wrong, young Hanabusa?" Misae asked as she approached Imadori, whom had just let out a wave of anger. "Perhaps you're disappointed by the state of the training ground? If so, sorry~" Misae said playfully, smile on her face as she scratched the back of her head.

"I'll fix it right away," The Kunoichi Elder said as she placed her palms together and closed her eyes, gathering Nature Energy.

"Senjutsu Art - Earth Release: Natural Formation of the Earth"

Placing her hand to the ground, Misae released her Senjutsu Chakra through the earth around her, causing the crater to fill itself in until back to being flat ground. Misae then slammed her heel down on the ground, causing the ground to slightly collapse in some places, turn into small humps in others, making it look like an untouched patch of natural stone ground. "A bit too natural? Nah, no such thing as being too natural."

"So I hear that dislike for the Hanabusa Clan is ever growing," Misae said as she turned back toward Imadori, one of her ears twitching atop her head for a moment. "If there's anything I can do to help out with that, I'd love to know. Especially if there's someone behind the growing dislike of the clan; I'd love to play around with their reputation a bit," Misae said with a slight evil grin upon her face for a brief moment before taking hold of Imadori's hand between her own two, giving a bright smile. "Really, if there's anything I can do for you, just ask! I'd love to see to it that a fine Kunoichi as yourself has all the chances in the world to prove yourself."

Chiruka
And well. His heart nearly imploded. Why, some may ask (and some or most would not, knowing just about anything set the rabbit boy off) well simply because, Ruka, bless his poor worrisome heart, had feared that they all wouldn’t be there when he showed up. Or rather that he would be there and they would not. And thus, the boy had asked kindly (pleaded desperately) for his genins academy instructor to hold them after call for them....about maybe 3-5 hours ago.
He was supposed to be with his students 3-5 hours ago. Blue eyes practically bulged out of their sockets as he realized this. Tongue flopping and stammering half formed sentences that were abandoned before even 3 words could get out. Then blank...his entire mind went white and his silvery head dropped .
The thoughts ‘failure’ repeated themselves viscously with little daggers clawing at his sanity. For, they probably hated him by now. Oh yes, he could see it. Three angry and heartbroken little faces peering up at him in disappointment. He really should just retire now. Quit while he was ahead really. He’ll maybe he even deserved-
No.
No no no. He did NOT deserve that. No...he...he could still salvage this. Yes yes it was still salvageable. He would be nice to them as an apology...skip their Genin/Jounin-Sensei test. Yes..that should do it! Brightening up considerably, the silver haired Nin , beamed brightly and bowed enthusiastically whilst stuttering out thanks and goodbyes before promptly speeding out of the office.
He had a Genin team to meet. And he was sure they were going to be great.

Hanabusa Imadori
The dark skinned blond jumped slightly upon realizing who it was . A guilty smile crept across her face , discreetly taking a peek at the wrecked training grounds, debris and tree guts littered the field in what most plant life would consider a gory massacre. Imadori had barely shaken her head no in question to the state of affairs regarding the training field when ,almost in a snap they seemed to correct themselves to form very eye pleasing formations. Imadori sweat dropped at the sheer amount of ease at which said reforming was done.
‘Oh look, someone else who is better than you’
her mind informed her sarcastically. A pout subconsciously slid onto her face at the unwelcome thought, because well...it was right. Everyone else was just...freaking awesome! They all had helpful damn abilities and strengths and well...she didn’t alright?! She didn’t help people even when she was trying to help people! He’ll she nearly took a pregnant woman’s baby out prematurely today! Every mission she ever goes on ends in destruction and chaos and it only gets her a bad rep. It even gives the Hanabusa clan a bad rep! The were already a moderately unlikable clan, but oh no. Bad luck seemed to have a hard on for her. She was a failure...a failure to her village, a failure to her clan, a failure to Kami-sama...
A deep aura of gloom slowly began to wrap around the young Hanabusa as her thoughts progressed steadily downhill. Her feet began unconsciously leading her towards a dark shady tree wher she could hopefully stew in her depression and start growing the strange purple mushrooms that seemed to thrive under her clans Woe.
It wasn’t until Misae mentioned someone behind her clans growing dislike that her head snapped up. Red eyes almost glowing in righteous anger and resentment.
“Oh there’s someone alright!! Someone who keeps setting imaginary fires in our compound and who keeps switching the prices on the food when we go out to buy! And that one time they spread a rumor about us eating people! Like seriously?! As if we would eat our own people! What do they take us for, traitors?!” She ranted, pacing the training grounds back and forth in a tight circle, all but frothing at the mouth in anger.
