== Roleplay ==
LightFang: -The days were growing dull. Something unsettling about the rain ceaseing to fall in Amegakure. Itsuki would be getting up this morning a bit earlier then usual. The sun hadn't even made an appearance yet. He did this on purpose though. He wanted to make sure he had time to get up and get dressed before his mission today. He had to head out and leave with a crew of fisherman. The boats leave early to catch the fish that feed early in the morning. However, it seems that recently the boats have been having a bit of pirate trouble in their usual routes. This is where Itsuki comes in. He was one of the young genin assigned to help protect this boat. The pirates dont attack everyday and Itsuki was hoping it would just give him time to work on his drawing, so he grabbed his gear making sure to strap his scrolls onto his hips. After gathering his things Itsuki would leap out of his window taking the roof tops to move quickly to the docks. Arriving there he would not that the sun was barely peaking over the horizon. He would head down to the quartermaster and check in. "Itsuki Inkuato, Genin of Amegakure, reporting for the ride along body gaurd position." Itsuki said as he approached the quatermaster. The quatermaster in turn replied simply by pointing to one of the smaller ships and going back to make a few marks on his clip board. To that Itsuki would just nod and head on over to the boat pointed out, looking around for any familiar faces as he did so. He was told that another was assigned to this mission so he wasn't going at this alone, and maybe it would be someone he knew.-
Guest_pxJeffTheKilleRxq: -A normal person would probably not do a mission after all that's happened but Fumetsu was on "autopilot". He did not care, he only knew he had to sharpen his skills to deal with all that's happened. Today he was going to deal with a bunch of stupid pirates again because he was assinged to it... him and another person. He walked towards the docks slowly but steadily with his chin up, cold eyes and dark and his trusty weapons. He had a white hoodie on him with the hood over his head, giving even more darkness to his already dark eyes. His swords, Body and Soul were on both of his sides. Body was rested in its sheath that was going through the sheath holder on the left while Soul was on the right side. He had nothing else when it come to ninja tools. He had his amegakure armband under his hoodie on his right upper arm. He wore a pair of black sport pants and his black sandals on his feet. He had his usual black mask to cover most of his face and his skeletal gloves to cover the bandages he had wrapped on his hands. He took a not of the rain still not showing up and began to speed up the pace of his walking to get faster to the docks. By the time he got there he just walked by the quartermaster saying a few words in a low tone.- "Genin... Bodyguard... Fumetsu..." -He already knew where to go since he could see Itsuki already at a boat. He knew the other was a genin and since there was no one else around the place Fumetsu decided to walk over to the other. As he got on the boat he glanced at Itsuki for a few seconds before simply pressing his back against the main mast, leaning against it without a word.-
LightFang: -Noticing a figure move passed him and glance at him, Itsuki wondered if that was the other genin he was to meet up with. He didn't see an Ame protector band on him anywhere. However, he did notice on thing. The boy had a sword on his right side that seemed familiar. Itsuki would approach the boy pondering where he had seen the sword before, then it dawned on him. "Fumetsu? The genin from the escort mission?" Itsuki said as he tried to recollect,"Guess we did so good protecting that guy that they wanted us to protect more people." He would then turn looking at the people running around the boat. Itsuki would approach one of the men working around the boat and speak out, "Hey were looking for the captain of this fishing vessel." He would end up getting the attention of one man who approached the two of them. "You must be the two genin, come to gaurd the ship from pirates?" the man said. Itsuki would nod waiting for the man to continue. The boy turned toward the boat calling out to a large fellow, "Hey captain the two ninja kids are here from the Kage." Hearing that made the large figure perk up a bit as he sauntered over to the group. His large waist held his pants up with a shiny buckle, almost as shiny as his bald head. He didn't look like much right off, but you could tell there was something more to this man. He had an aura about him that practically screamed authority. Well he was the captain after all. "Listen boys, I ain't wanted none of this body gaurdin' foolishness, but the kage insists." The captain said looking at the two genin. "Either way, i dont give no free rides. If you're sailing you're workin'. Pick up those crates and get'em on board, then help us untie from the dock." Itsuki would nod and waste no time rushing over to grab a crate and and carry it down to the lower decks. 'Maybe this won't be the relaxing trip i hoped for,' he thought to himself. Once they gathered all of the supplies and stored them bellow deck Itsuki would move to the front of the boat and untie it from the dock, leaving the back to Fumetsu. After which the boat would depart heading toward the sun and away from the docks.-
Guest_pxJeffTheKilleRxq: -He stared at the other genin as he got closer to the silent Kaguya. Upon hearing his name come out of the boy's mouth Fumetsu's eyes closed halfway, making his frown more evident. He knew who the other was so he just gave a nod. 'Why not just kill him?...' there were shadows talking from behind Itsuki. 'Because I'm smart, unlike you... weren't so smart killing my... family...' Fumetsu responded with his own thoughts as he folded his arms across his chest. He tried his best to ignore the shadows' taunting. He heard the other's comment about how they did good on the escort mission, mentioning that they did so good that these guys actually got them here just to protect more people. Fumetsu didn't care, orders were orders, couldn't oppose them without facing the consequences... He was angry, he was driven insane... he was feeling every emotion that could be called anything but good or any positive term... but he was smart... and even though he wanted to take his revenge on everybody, he knew that as a genin he couldn't kill one of his own village. On top of that, he hated humanity but he just kept himself not caring much about them. He wouldn't bother to hurt Itsuki who never did anything bad to Fumetsu, he didn't even know the other. He remembered even taking care of him in one of the two missions he did with the other. As Fumetsu got lost in thought he woke back up from it and noticed that a man got close to the two of them asking if they were there to protect the ship. Fumetsu just stared at the man before noticing that the one called the captain of the ship came over as well. He listened to the guy complaining a bit before talking about him not giving free rides and actually sending the two genin to do some work. As Fumetsu's arms fell from his chest he took a hold of Soul's handle and the captain seemed to give him a glare. Fumetsu looked right back at the man as he heard the shadows yelling at him to kill them. He lightly moved the whole sword to keep it comfortable pressed against his hip and walked towards the crates without a word, the shadows in his head simply vanishing for the time being. It wasn't just a mere coincidence that he grabbed the katana named "Soul". Either way, Fumetsu got to carrying crates and after the two were done with them he went to untie the boat from the dock, working at the back since Itsuki already untied the front. After some time of the boat sailing in which Fumetsu simply kept his back pressed against the main mast, the boat was lightly hit by another boat, a smaller one but a boat nonetheless. It was a pirate ship and before they could react, a pair of two dirty pirates got on the main deck. They threatened everyone to kill them and all those pirate like shenanigans. Fumetsu rolled his eyes seeing as he didn't care one bit about the ship but he wanted both the money and to sharpen his skills as well as the need to kill those filthy pirates. The two pirates were both filthy, with no real armor on them but they were armed with their little pirate toys, daggers and they both had one sword in their arsenal. One of them saw that Itsuki was an actual genin so the pirate quickly went to attack the boy with his sword. Fumetsu walked slowly towards the other pirate who was equipped with two daggers. When the pirate saw that Fumetsu was armed he quickly rushed to slash the Kaguya with his little knifes. Fumetsu took a hold of his Soul katana and pulled it out using his right hand, holding it back handed and blocking both of the daggers before punching the pirate's beer belly making him step back in pain. In that time Fumetsu took out his other katana, Body, holding it back handed as well but soon turning it with one hand so he held it normally.-
LightFang: -Once everything was put away and the boat got moving there wasn't much for Itsuki and Fumetsu to do. The captain made it a point for them to stay out of the way since they didn't know the mechanics of running a boat. They were obviously there for one job and that was it. If something heavy needed to be moved then they were called to move it, other than that dont touch anything. Itsuki decided to take the trip as a time to rest and take out his scroll. He would pop out his brush and dip it in the built in ink well before begining to work on his blank scroll. He started with a straight line before making a sharp change in direction then flattening it out. He curved the brush back around and repeated the motions in a mirror on the other side. Once he was done he had drawn out a kunai knife. Itsuki then made the seal of confrontation in his right hand before touching the scroll and phisically pulling the ink kunai out of the scroll. Itsuki was mildly impressed with his own ability but still wished he was able to animate the objects he made from ink. 'Maybe one day,' He thought looking at the kunai. At that moment Itsuki felt the ship come to a stop. He could see everyone rushing around grabing nets and such begining to throw them out to begin the day of fishing. He noticed one guy, seemed a bit smaller than the rest, was having trouble with his net. Itsuki would make his way over to him and without a word help him hoist the net. He tossed it over where the guy indicated and went on his way. The guy thanked him for the help and got to work tending the net. About that moment one of the crew members called out, "PIRATES!" just before the boat was physically rocked by another slamming into it. Itsuki turned to the scene of the incident noticing two men in trashy clothing swing aboard from the other vessel. One was brandishing a sword the other a couple of knives. The one with the sword started spouting out nonsense like, "Alright alright, We be here to take yer cargo, rape yer women, and kill anyone who says nye." The one with knives stood in the back interjecting little only to hype the first or just to repeat a phrase he just said, "Yea rape yer women! Kill the scum!" The pirate with a sword centered his eyes on Itsuki, obviously noting the Ame protector as he spoke, "Ah yee stepped yer game up swine. Brought a ninja to protect yee." The man drew his sword approaching Itsuki, "Too bad he's a bit puiny. I bet he wont last two rounds with ole lefty." Itsuki figured he was refering to himself with the "ole lefty" line, considering the man held his sword in his left hand. Itsuki's eyes would shift slightly noticing the other pirate had aproached Fumetsu, either because he was the other ninja here or because he seemed to be the only one armed on this boat. Either way these pirates had a rude awakening in store. "Avast yee!" Ole Lefty yelled as he swang his blade at Itsuki. Itsuki skillfully ducked under the blade letting it crash into the mast of the boat. Once the blade was avoided Itsuki would raise up and outward throwing a headbutt into the pirates gut knocking him back a few steps. The pirate however managed to hold onto his sword through that. Itsuki, not taking his eyes off his opponent, would call out, "I've got this one, you can handle the other one."-
Guest_pxJeffTheKilleRxq: -He could hear the other talk about taking care of the one with the sword equipped, "Ole Lefty" as he calls himself... When Fumetsu was about to get closer to the dagger pirate once again, he unexpectedly threw one of the daggers at Fumetsu. Fumetsu obviously having a clever mind wouldn't expect the pirate to do that seeing as it was the only way of protecting his stupid being. Last time Fumetsu checked, a small dagger wouldn't do too good against two katanas... the pirate didn't really have much of an advantage even with two daggers but hey, pirates are really stupid apparently. Fumetsu however was taken by surprise by this stupidness and got hit by the dagger. The dagger that hit him mannaged to cause wound on Fumetsu's chest, not really too deep since the dagger wasn't thrown right, it wasn't even that sharp but it managed to make a very small stab wound either way. also making a small cut in his hoodie. Fumetsu was annoyed as the dagger fell to the ground, he looked at the other taunt him and parted his lips behind his black mask, speaking a few words once again.- "You... don't bring a kitchen tool to a sword fight..." -He didn't even smirk to his joke... it wasn't even a joke, it was a honest statement, it was a fact to Fumetsu... of course, someone could do some damage with those weapons if they were skilled but a pirate? Not really. He then got closer, jumped to the side and cut the man's leg a bit with one of his swords, blocking the pirate's attack with the other. He used that block to counter attack and make a cut across the man's side. The man kicked the genin away for a bit and dropped the knife as the pain made him cover his wounds with his hands. His leg felt like burning so he didn't want to move it, making him bend over slightly, holding himself up using his hand that he placed on a wall as support. At the same time his side also began to hurt and the pirate didn't seem to be fully sober since the idiot didn't realize he was in a fight with an enemy ninja, holding two katanas. Fumetsu shook his head looking at the man. 'Kill him, kill him, come on, just like how we killed your family, make him suffer!' Fumetsu was once again annoyed by one of those evil shadows. The shadow was pointing at the man's neck and at the same time at Fumetsu's swords. Fumetsu instead got slightly closer, jumped upwards and did a front flip hitting the guy's head with his foot. The pirate fell down uncounscious since Fumetsu mostly caught the nape of his neck to make sure he went out cold. 'You didn't kill him! He has a thick skull!' Fumetsu then replied to the shadow with his own thoughts 'But I can assure you that he's suffering... Why bother getting more blood on my swords when the higher ups will take him either way... perhaps kill him too...' The shadow once again got shut up by Fumetsu, disappearing. He glanced over at Itsuki to see if he's even doing his job right.- 
LightFang: -Ole Lefty was not amused, being caught off gaurd by a kid like he was. "Oh so the punk has some balls. They'll look good mounted to the front of my boat kid!" The pirates demanor seemed to change. He no longer had the essense of a drunken idiot. He still seemed drunk, just not like an idiot. Something about Ole lefty made him seem confident. It was almost like his being drunk, empowered him. Itsuki took note of this as the pirate advanced towards him. Itsuki's style was more of a wait for an opening and strike sort, so he allowed the man to get close. He hoped he would throw another attack so he could exploit the innevitable opening it left. The pirate did just that. He would wrap his blade out there quickly swiping for Itsuki's head. Again Itsuki saw this an easy enough evasion as he ducked under the high shot and went to deliver one of his own. He ducked and began to let out a straight jab with his right hand. However he failed to notice the follow up. The pirate turned his blade and swiped down after his wrap shot to the head missed. Itsuki's movement left him right in the way of this, he went right where the pirate lead him. Unfortunatly for the pirate, Itsuki was a ninja and trained to think fast. Because of this Itsuki managed to forgo his jab and instead turned to face the blade and raised his left arm to strike the back of the wrist of the pirates sword arm. Against normal swordsman this could be an effective block. However, for a lefty this made the pirates wrist snap back and allow his blade to graze the boy's left arm. Itsuki winced and his upper biscep was nicked and began to bleed. He was thankful he wore his protector on that arm because it effectivly blocked the blade from cutting into the rest of his arm. Itsuki managed to knock the pirate's arm away though, stopping that from being a killing blow. Itsuki cursed himself for not bringing any kunai to aid him in this fight, or learning how to use a sword. Both would be helpful he thought before he realised. He didn't need either. He could make them. Quickly he flashed a few hand seals, Tiger, Boar, Ox, Dog, Snake. Afterwards he reached to his hip with his left hand popping out his medium scroll. He then rushed the swordsman pulling his brush out of the scroll and dipping it in the ink compartment of his scroll. As he got close, Ole Lefty took the chance to slash at the boy. His attack was aimed to come down on Itsuki's right shoulder. Just before it could make contact the jutsu that itsuki formed the signs for took effect. Quickly taking a rope about five feet behind Itsuki and swapping their places. The pirate sliced right through the loose rope and looked very confused. Using that moment of confusion Itsuki had already drawn out two Kunai daggers on his scroll. He formed the seal of confrontation and pulled them from his scroll before returning it to his hip. He held one kunai in each hand backhanded. He had them held out toward the pirate as he approached him. As he got close the pirate, annoyed with this new development repeated the same strike but heavier. Aimed for his shoulder Itsuki simply punched upward, kunai in hand, with his right hand. He caught the blade at the middle and pushed on it holding the blade off him. With the pirate now defenceless Itsuki then lowered his left hand and sunk the kunai in that hand into Ole Lefty's right thigh. The blade stabbed in a good two inches before Ole lefty reared back his right hand and delivered a mean hook to Itsuki's face. This would knock Itsuki a few feet back and down to one knee, however the pirate was on a knee aswell. Itsuki glanced up and noticed Fumetsu had already knocked his opponent out at this time before his gaze fell on Ole Lefty again. The pirate was bleeding pretty bad from his leg and Itsuki was tired of getting knocked arround so he was thinking it was about time to finish the fight.-
Guest_pxJeffTheKilleRxq: -Fumetsu was now tired of these damn pirates so he moved both of his arms with a swift motion, making the blood fly off the both of them. The kaguya then pushed his Soul katana back in it's sheath while still having his Body katana in his left hand. He slowly walked towards the two until he ended up in the middle of them.- "Itsuki... quit playing around..." -Fumetsu said in a cold tone before looking at Ole Lefty. The injured pirate looked back at the genin. Fumetsu quickly moved his sword a bit so that he was holding it back handed once again and lightly stabbed the ground with it, making a sound and a sudden movement at the same time. When Ole Lefty looked down at the sword, Fumetsu took advantage of the distraction and kicked the guy with his left foot, striking the pirate's left shoulder and since he was holding himself more on the right side, Fumetsu managed to unbalance the pirate and make him fall on his back. He then pulled his sword out. 'Come on, finish him off!' stupid dark thoughts from shadows to which Fumetsu replied with 'No...'- "Come on, finish this filth off... show him that you are a monster just like him... you might not rape... or steal... but you sure are a monster like him... you are part of mankind... and we all are monsters... you're no different, Itsuki..." -Fumetsu spoke to the boy, taunting him just like how he was getting taunted every minute of his life by those stupid voices in his head... by those stupid shadows that showed up.- "Do your job as a shinobi..." -He was speaking sarcastically and cold in tone, he didn't seem to joke at all at the same time... he always had his dark and serious tone.-
LightFang: -Itsuki would be taken back by Fumetsu's outburst. He never really got to know that guy, but by the way he talked maybe that wasn't a bad thing. "You don't have a right to call me a monster. I may be human, but that doesn't make me a monster." Itsuki replied to the boys remark. "Sounds like you have something to work out with your self. Learn to kill your emotions, thats one of the shinobi rules right." Itsuki would move to pick up the unconscience body of the one who called himself Ole Lefty. "Speaking of rules, A shinobi must always put the mission first. That's another one. Now help me move these guys to the mast so we can tie them down." Itsuki would prop Ole Lefty against the center mast before grabing a length of rope and running it arround to pirate a few times. Once he thought he had wrapped him enough he did it twice more to be sure then tied the rope tight. Itsuki looked to make sure Fumetsu had done his part with the other pirate before making his way to a box laying on the deck. He sat down on the box taking out a length of gauze from his pouch and begining to clean and wrap the wound he recieved on his left shoulder. As he did this he spoke to Fumetsu, "I know some dont think the rules matter, and it's true they are mainly guidelines and not meant to be looked at as laws but still. A shinobi must never show weakness. If you truely think mankind is just monsters then that would make us mindless idiots.. and if we didn't have our intelligence, then i feel that would make us weak in its own way. So what you say can't be true. " He sighed before he bit through the gauze and finished the wrap over his wound. "Anyway, what do i know? We should head back to the village." The captain of the boat agreed and gave the order to pull in the nets. It wasn't long till everything was stored away and they were setting sail again.-
Guest_pxJeffTheKilleRxq: -After hearing the boy's first set of replies Fumetsu turned his head to look at the other- "Oh?..." -He listened to the other as he mentioned Fumetsu killing off his emotions 'See? Just kill, don't think you idiot, kill your emotions and kill those around you, he said it himself, hahahaha!' -Fumetsu, annoyed once again, got his other sword in its sheath as well walking over to the uncounscious pirate that he knocked out. He grabbed the person by the ankles and got him to sit against the main mast. He got some wrap and made sure to tie the pirate up tightly. He then soon glanced back at Itsuki watching the other deal with the wound he recieved and listening to what he had to say- "So you call these two "mindfull"?... Rules do matter, so do orders, unfortunately... We are the opposite of mindless idiots... we are crafty killers... You can try all you want kid.. but it will hit you as well... the truth... and if we do get to fight in the upcoming chunnin exams... don't think that many will force themselves to not kill you..." -Fumetsu then remembered that he's just talking to another human... they all have their own opinions, they're stubborn... they kill... or they try to not kill but why does it matter?... Fumetsu used to be like that and that lead him nowhere... Now, he doesn't fully care about the lives of anyone around him, his not trying to please the shadows or those around him. He does what he's ordered to wether he likes it or not. His goals are covered in mist right now, all he knows is that he has to survive for as long as he can... His Sensei perhaps could've survived if she had a stronger will... his family could've done the same... it isn't luck that Fumetsu survived that night. A person lives the more their determined to will the longer... A person's killing ability raises with their killing intent... war will never stop... killing won't. Fumetsu just lost all of his will to live meaning that he will probably not survive for long... fortunately for him, while the sorrow drains him of the will to live, the anger boosts his killing intent, his need to get revenge and that also boosts up his will to live, at least long enough to take his revenge... but he can't kill a whole species... he can't kill all of humanity... all he can do is watch as they kill themselves like the beasts they were. So Fumetsu moved his hand over his chest, over his wound and simply walked away from Itsuki, no listening to another word if the other was to say something more. After a bit of sailing they would finally arrive back at the docs. The Captain of the ship called them both and Fumetsu walked to him. Once Itsuki was there as well the captain would utter more of his useless words to which Fumetsu didn't pay attention before giving them both a pouch of coins. Once Fumetsu got his own, he pushed it in his hoodie pocket before simply doing the Ram hand seal and using the Body Flicker jutsu to get out of their sight and back on the rooftops to go on with his day, use it for training most likely.-
LightFang: -Itsuki would notice the boy is already lost. He may not know it yet but Itsuki was sure to meet many like that in his lifetime. He noted the boy speak of the chunin exams and how others wont hesitate to try to kill him. He couldn't help but speak out again, "And i wouldn't want them to not try. We should all be there doing our best, and if your not expecting to kill your opponent then you might find it difficult to beat them. At the same time you gotta be confident in your ability to stay alive. Fight to live another day, and live to fight another day." Itsuki would turn as the captain walked up to them giving them both a sack of Ryo. He thanked both of the genin for protecting the boat and its cargo. He mentioned something about throwing a couple hundred extra in for saving their lives. Itsuki's head was still pondering the other boys way of thinking so he wasn't paying much attention. When the captain got out of his way he looked to Fumetsu noticing he was already gone. He would let out a sigh,"well thats one to watch for the exams.."Itsuki would disembark the boat and make his way to the mission office turning in his completion record. The receptionist would smile as she returned his certificate saying, "One more and your ellidgable" To which Itsuki replied, "Yep 4 down, 1 more for the exams."-
