== Title: Slippery Toads 2/22/16 ==
Jamesgoldc:  -The Hyuga sat out in front of his house, his feet were bare as he observed his surroundings watching as his fellow clansmen would pass back and forth in between his house. His sandals sat beside him as he looked at the sky as the sun began to rise. His clothes were already on and he was just getting ready to head to the training yard. His attire consisted of a beige upturned collar hoodie, black calf-length pants, and black ankle length sandals. His headband shinning even brighter than usual as the suns light hit on the metallic headwear. The Genin would slip his feet into his sandals, pushing down on the shoe to make sure it was secured. His toes and heel openly exposed due to the design of his sandals. The Hyuga would exit the compound before entering the busy streets of Amegakure, walking casually as he observed his surroundings. As he walked, out of no where he and another was stopped by a merchant before Suzume walked over to him to see what business he wanted with Suzume. *Would you two please complete task for me, I will make sure to give you a reward in return.* The Hyuga would reply with a simple not before the merchant handed him a scroll. After this the merchant  gave him a jar, a brow would raise on the Hyuga. He would place the jar on the ground beside him. Without question he opened the scroll only to find that it was another mission, the heading reading “Toad Oil”. He would read over the scroll as he found out that he was to go to either a pond, river, or stream to collect some toads due to the fact of them having a special type of oil. After this he would fold up the scroll before tucking it in his pocket and notified the other of what the content of the scroll read before motioning the other to follow him. After this he was begin walking as he headed toward a near by pond.-
SarcasmTheSickness: *Juuzou was walking around the village just relaxing and having a calm little stroll when he was stopped by an old looking merchant, the merchant was already talking to another boy but he seemed to need help from both of them. Juuzou's curly black that swayed to one side flowed lightly in the wind while he simply listened to the old merchant. The merchant gave the Hyuga a scroll and seeing the Hyuga beginning to read it. Juuzou appeared beside the Hyuga reading the scroll as well, his black beanie flowing around as the wind began to pick up just a bit, his blue unzipped jacket, black undershirt, black shorts, and light blue slippers. Juuzou even still had on his skeleton make-up face, and his dark blue eyes. He was done reading actually rather quickly, he placed his hands in his pockets and yawned a bit.* (Juuzou): "So we both have to do this? Alright fine. I'm Juuzou Yuki by the way.. Our target is to get some special type of Toad Oil right? From different colored toads?" *He said to as he was slowly walking out of the village and since they were around like a loud of ponds and stuff it shoudlnt be that hard to find a place*
Jamesgoldc: -As they walked the Hyuga heard the other introduce himself as Yuki Juuzou. Before making sure that heard Suzume correctly. He would reply with a simple nod before parting his lips. “ Nice to meet you too…my names Hyuga Suzume..” And with that the Hyuga didn’t waste no more time talking but focusing on getting to the nearest pond. It didn’t take long before Suzume spotted a pond before immediately going over to it and immediately  began to searching for some toads. At first the Hyuga thought he couldn’t find them before rethinking and thinking that he just over ooked some places before retracing his steps and looking over the same exact spots for the toads once more. After a while the Hyuga would began to get doubtful as to whether or not the two would be able to find any toads where they we’re currently at.-
SarcasmTheSickness: "H-hey!" *Juuzou's finger's were pointing over to one certain spot in the pond, there he saw one toad swimming around in the water, the only reason Juuzou was able to see it was because Suzume stopped moving long enough for Juuzou to hear the water sway in a different way then the wind was blowing as well as seeing small ripples in the water meaning of course something was moving around in there. He moved in slowly to try not to scare it, but the sound of an egale screech messed up Juuzou's thoughts and he saw the toad begin to swim off but the toad wasn't swimming away to somewhere far. Actually the toad swam to it's group. There were many of the toads and all with different colors... It was actually quite beautiful to see close up. Juuzou then remembered the mission and sighed* (Juuzou): "Guess we'll have to get into the water and try and get them." *He looked over towards the Hyuga trying to see what he would say about it.*
Jamesgoldc: -He would hear Juuzou stutter before turning to see him pointing a finger to a single spot in the pond where toad swam around in the water. The hyuga would as well notice the small ripples in the water before seeing the toad swim over to a group of toads which were all type of colors. After this he heard Juuzou speak saying that the two would have to get in the water and catch them. Suzume would reply with a simple nod before takes off his hoodie, hip pouch, butt pouch, thigh pouch, and sandals before jumping into the water to an catch the toads. Suzume eyes would lock on to the red toad as he would swim a s fast as he could to catch it, when Suzume was in arms reach of toad he would attempt to bear hug it before the red toad would jump onto Suzume’s head, running along his back and back into the water. He would try once more to catch the toad, using the same tactics as before, when he was in arms reach of the toad he would again attempt to bear up it before having the toad splash water into Suzume’s eyes with its feet before walking sitting there starring straight at Suzume as he rubbed his eyes with his hands trying to get the water out.-
SarcasmTheSickness: *Juuzou simply watched as the Hyuga was failing at trying to get the red toad. Well he'd let him to that one himself while he went for the Green toad that was legit staring down Juuzou. He glared at it lightly and then saw it try to run away, Juuzou moved quickly in order to grab it. He actually did for a second as well having it in one hand. It would have been a catch but the green toad was really slippery and freed itself from Juuzou's grasp. He sucked his teeth a bit and watched as it began to move away. As if taunting him, it would come up every now and again just to swim around him.* (Juuzou): "It's official, your the first toad to be on my hit list." *Juuzou decleared as he soon rushed towards the green toad reaching for it again and again. But the green toad was smart enough to keep moving out of the way. That was before one last time Juuzou was trying to catch the toad with his hands and it dodged them both but this time was different. Juuzou placed his hands in the water and side kicked the toad out of the pond and went over to get it.*
Jamesgoldc: -After finally getting the water out of his eyes he would blink multiple times before stopping to see the red toad starring down Suzume. He would smirk thinking that there was no way he could miss the red toad but he was sadly mistaken, when he reached to grab him the toad jumped back. The Hyuga would swim forward trying to grab the red toad a fourth time before finally getting a hold of it. He would keep a tight grip on it as he walked out of the water and to the jar were his left arm put the toad under his pit while the right unloosened the lid before dumping the toad in it and loosening the cap before getting back into the water. Once in the water again he would focus his attention on the blue toad, he would slowly approach the blue toad before out of nowhere launching at it to grab it with both hands, he would hold it for a second before the toad would slip right out of his hands and up into the air before falling into the water. Before it could get away Suzume would grab it with both hands keeping a tight grip before leaving the water and placing it under his left pit while unloosening the lid with his right before dumping the toad into the jar before tightening the lid and returning to the water to catch two more. When he returned to the water he would look at the toads wondering which one he would go for next before finally deciding to go after the yellow toad. The toad would stare at Suzume its eyes sticking to his every movement like glue, when the Hyuga finally came at him with both arms out attempting to get it in its grip the yellow toad would immediately skip across the water, trying its best to get away before tripping on a piece of rock before falling face first into the water. While the yellow toad tried to recover from the fall Suzume would simply come over and scoop the toad up in his hands before dumping leaving the water and putting it in the jar.  In total it was eight toads around the two, Suzume decided on his own that since it was eight he would collect four and Juuzou would collect four although not verbally announcing it he would show it in his actions. After reentering the water a fourth time he would look once more for his next and final toad that he would be putting in the jar, his white eyes would immediately lock onto the black toad. It sat on a rock within the water casually, looking to not give a care in the world of Suzume’s presence because of this Suzume would think that the toad would be a push over and simply wouldn’t fight trying to be captured or so he thought. When the Hyuga reached for the toad it would jump at his lower body before grabbing a hold of Suzume’s waist, while trying to hold on Suzume would grab the black toad and place it in the jar before looking over to see what Juuzou was doing. After looking for a moment he would turn to his clothes before first putting his hip pouch, butt pouch, and thigh pouch on. Following this he would slip his feet into his black ankle length sandals before picking up his hoodie and putting his head through the upper hole of it and putting his arms through the side holes, after this he would sit on land, legs crossed as he sat and watch Juuzou catch the remaining four toads.-
SarcasmTheSickness: *Juuzou had noticed that while he was getting the green toad, that the Hyuga had already finished. He watched him capture the yellow and black frog but missed the red and blue one since he was grabbing the green toad. He moved over to put the green toad in a jar that he was carrying and then went back into the pond. There he was met with the other colored toads. Brown, Purple, and Orange. The purple and orange toads stood out quite well but the brown toad was blending in lightly with the dirt of the pond that was at the bottom. Once Juuzou had stood in the middle of the pond, he closed his eyes and began to calm his mind in order to get the feeling of the water himself and started to maintan his charka just a bit more for well other reasons. As everything had begun to become silent, Juuzou was able to feel the way the water moved with the toad moved inch by inch, he soon opened his eyes and the water to his northwest side began to move around more, Juuzou had reached for it and grabbed the purple toad which didnt really seem like it really wanted to move much. Juuzou sighed looking at the purple toad. The purple toad then stuck it's tongue out at Juuzou hitting his forehead which he did not expect causing him to drop the frog but before it fell in the water Juuzou attempted to catch it but it avoided his hand. Once the purple toad landed back in the water he didn't even try to swim away or move or even blend in. Juuzou tilted his head a bit* (Juuzou): "You're a lot like me huh? I guess moving a lot was too much work for you huh? Well in you go." *He said moving the purple toad to one of the jars and then looked back into the pond once more. (Juuzou): "Alright two more to go huh? Seems simple enough." *As he said that he went back to calming his mind and the silence once again filled the area. When he reopened his eyes this time from the south of him the water began to move wildly, Juuzou had reached for the orange toad but it seemed to have switched it's position quite quickly and went into an other direction meaning Juuzou had missed and fell into the water. He came back up and shook off some of the water, looking back over towars the orange toad* (Juuzou): "Man... so you're not as dumb as I thought. It'll be a different issue catching you." *Juuzou of course tried the same tactic again in order to get a better understanding of the orange toad meaning he had missed twice with just this one toad..* (Juuzou): "This time I got it..." *Juuzou had clapped his hands together and moved his leg, the Orange toad assumed he was moving to it and switched into a direction closer to Juuzou in which he wasted no time taking advantage of and picking up the orange toad and placing him in a jar.* (Juuzou): "So... how many was that 7? One more." *Juuzou figured this one would be easy since th brown toad was actually quite bigger then the rest but blended in better as well. Juuzou thought he saw what looked like the brown toad and reached for it slowly and the moment his finger had touched the surface of the object he sighed lightly* (Juuzou): "Just a rock... Actually." *Juuzou smirked picking up the rock and looking at it. He scanned around for the brown toad and threw the rock towards a random spot where the brown toad could have been and watched the ripple effect in the water.* (Juuzou): "Now wait for it..." *He said to himself waiting as another ripple effect happened about 2 inchs away from where the rock had landed, Juuzou reached for the object and this time it was the brown toad but it had jumped on his arm and on his head trying to get away. Once it jumped off his head Juuzou attempted to grab it but since it was still uite slippery he was able to avoid his hands... but not his legs. Juuzou used his left leg in order to sweep the brown toad onto his leg so basically it landed there like it was a lilypad. Juuzou then grabbed it with his hands this time and made sure it didn't move and placed the brown toad into the jar*
Jamesgoldc: -The Hyuga watched as the Yuki had problems catching each toad as well like he did. After Juuzou had collected his four toads, Suzume would uncross his legs before getting up and stretching before walking over to the jar to pick up and carry. “Think it’s about time we head back Juuzou….” And with that he would say nothing more but walk past the other before heading back to the merchant. If the other was following him it would take them roughly about twenty minutes before getting pretty close to the merchants shop. If the other was still following the merchant would thank both of them before Suzume handed the jar of toads over to him and with that they would be returned with their own separate envelope’s that contained their reward. When he opened his he would find about 100,000 ryo inside, the Hyuga’s eyes would widen for a moment due to the fact that it was the largest amount of money he had eer received before looking up to the merchant and thanks him before bowing. After this he would turn to Juzzou. “Thanks for the help with the task…see yoiu around..” And with that he would  he would leave the scroll with the merchant before tucking his hands into his pocket and leaving the other as he walked back to his home to change into dry clothes before going to the training yard to practice the Gentle Fist style.-
SarcasmTheSickness: *Juuzou could see that this Hyuga wasn't really the social type but that was fine, neither was he. He stretched a bit as they were walking back to the village in order to see that merchant again. Once Suzume had gave him his four jars, Juuzou did that as well handing him the four jars of toads he had collected. Once he handed it over he got a smell of his hands and almost wanted to vomit. The toads weren't the best smelling thing in the world but as soon as the Merchant handed both of them their money, he watched as the Merchant had left first and then looked to Suzume* (Juuzou): "Not really the social type are you?" *He of course figured he didnt hear him with him leaving rather quickly but with this Juuzou's mission was completed and he was able to head back home and get some sleep... well after a shower of course. He placed the money he recieved in his pocket and headed back to him home in order to take a shower before doing anything. But on his way there.. a few thoughts hit him* (Juuzou): "Why was the water splashing like that, when I sensed the toads? Was I doing that...? Hmm, maybe I've unlocked my first release... Nah probably not yet." *He shrugged and headed into his house finally*
