Retreat it was, well, there's always a first time. Now it was really getting interesting, thought Karasu, maybe he'll see them again. Well, it was surprising, but he respected only those who could survive against him for at least 5 minutes. And this guy, Raika, lasted for more than 10. Quite the guy, well, there'll always be someone stronger than you. A teaching from his clan, well, when he meets this "stronger" person, maybe he'll then be able to put his fighting spirit to rest. But that day won't come... Not for awhile.

apearance- A rather tall boy that looks much older then he really is. Black curly hair at his shoulders. Hazel eyes with several tattoos on his body. Dark skinned with a rather chaotic personality.
short bio- Jeison grew up in a clan of well rounded ninja. Although he was the weakest for quite sometime in his youth he quickly became an excellent and powerful ninja which eventually led him to be the Assassination leader of the Hidden Storm village. From that point forward he only trained harder and faster. Read books frequently about tactical philosophies and poetry.

ooc: it all sounds great to me welcome back...lol

Tokalu heard the Karasu say he wasnt fighting anylonger and had begun to retreat. Raikas dragon had slowly faded away and tokalu had an odd feeling like raika was trying to talk to him. I should retreat... Tokalu thought still quite upset though. Raika had died and tokalu had lost. "Alright ill retreat too.." tokalu paused "But...I will hunt you down and hand your head on my wall before this is over." Tokalu had been looking down now for a while watching the mountains disapear. He looked up anger burning in his eyes as he stared down karasu "That or ill die trying." Tokalu then bounced backwards and took off. I have to get stronger...and I need a new team mate... Tokalu thought. He hadnt known raika long, and he had been an ass when he did know him, but he had still become attached. Now he was upset about how he had acted. Tokalu had placed enough distance between karasu and himself to feel safe. He just stopped dead in his tracks and colapsed almost in tears. Why did it have to happen this way? Tokalu thought as he stared to pick himself up, the pain he was feeling during his fight was comeing back.

OoC: Warining, Long post detected.

Some static came..."Yeah....Yeah. Assassination complete." Jeison said to someone over a mouth peice. His voice was incredibly deep for his age. He scratched his scruffy face with his curly hair in his eyes. He flicked his hair back to reveal hazel eyes. Jeison stood up. He looked around the small lake and then around the tiny forest. He reached into his back pocket and opened it. He crossed out a face and name. He didn't care what the name was or anything. He was just doing his job. He was incredibly laid back, always looking like he just woke up. He sighed and put his bloody kunais away. He formed a single seal and left the body. He reappeared several hundred yards outside the forest. He quickly ran through the endless looking field. He was a very well rounded ninja. Nothing about his abilities stuck out really.

An hour or so of endless running finally came to an end. He was home. The hidden storm village. He looked up the side of the mountain. There was a tiny village on the southern side of it. Just under the clouds. He smiled tiredly. It had been a long day. He hadn't slept in 2 days. He had been tracking his enemy for some time. He depleted some more chakra and teleported right to the front of the village. The village gate was open. He looked to his right and left. 8 guards altogether, 4 on the left. 4 on the right. They all shouted greetings to him. Jeison brushed his hair back and waved to them. He walked through a few streets before reaching a larger house. T

he head ninja of the village was there. There was no kage at all. The village was so tiny all of the village people said they didn't need a huge power like that residing there. He walked into the house. He opened several doors, talked with a few comerades. He opened the door with the water symbol on it. A females voice came. "Welcome back Jeison. I take it the assassination went well." She said as she looked out the window. "Yeah yeah...Cut it sis." Jeison said as he rubbed his neck. His sister turned. His sister was 21. 5 years older then him. She turned. She was a bit lighter skin then he was. He long brown hair was tied back into a short pony tail. She smiled with her light brown eyes. Her name was Kaiyana."Fine...You have another mission." She said tossing a bingo book at him. The page was opened to show a strange looking man named Karasu. "Lemme guess. I gotta kill him right?" Jeison said with a huge yawn. "Yes. I do. But, The difference with him is, hes killed hundreds of assassins. So you need to use extra caution. We've even received word hes killed of one of the most skilled shinobi in the fire country." She explained. "And whose that?" He asked as he yawned again.

"Raika Kujirame." Kaiyana said simply. Jeison blinked. "Yeah...And....?" Jeison continued. Kaiyana hit her fist into her tiny desk hard. "Don't be an idiot!" She shouted. "Aww. Relax." Jeison said as he took a seat and put his feet up on her desk. She quickly pushed them off and looked at him. "Raika Kujirame WAS one of the most powerful Genjutsu users." She explained. "But Karasu...Probably finished him off in a minute tops." She continued. Jeison snored. He fell asleep. Kaiyana looked at him with an open mouth. She wheeled him out of the room and put him outside the foor. Several of the jounin passed him and stared and continued walking, Letting Jeison get some well deserved rest.

ooc: well im sick of my character feeling sorry for himself so im going to speed things up....

Tokalu who was still in pain had traveled for days strait just to get home. Depressed and injured he had almost killed himself just moving to get home. But he had made it to the reed village. Once at the gate Tokalu had colapsed.

some time passes

As tokalu opened his eyes he realized he was in a hospital room and feeling a hell of alot better. There was nurse standing next to him looking at some charts. "Your chakra replenished itself fast as usual but your body is still fairly weak." the nurse said. Tokalu hung on the word fairly. "Am I well enough to go on a mission?" he asked. "Well yes bu-" the nurse couldnt even finish. Once the word yes left her mouth tokalu was gone. He went strait to the kage.

Once in the kages office tokalu quickly explained what happened. He was finishing up "So you see kage-sama I have to go back after this guy! I need a partner but no one hear is fast enough or strong enough to come with me." The kage was silent for a moment. "Tokalu youve only rested for a day" he said, but tokalu jumped back "That doesnt matter I feel wonderful..." The kage stared at him for a moment longer "What about your condition?? With heart issues you can only use your speed when needed." Tokalu was still arguing though "I know and ill tone it down..just please!" The kage finaly sighed. "Tokalu you always have had spirit...There is another person after karasu. If I send word now I should know by tomarrow weather or not you can acompany him, But realize that if the answer is no and you go anyway your running the risk of having two enemys." the kage was very serious but was wrighting a letter to the other village. "I understand" tokalu said as he watched the kage attach the letter to a small grey swamp bird. The bird flew off though at lightning speed. Tokalus hope of another partner attached to its leg.

[ichijin]

In his current state, going after him was suicide. He's quickly switched from waiting, to hunting. His love of a thrilling fight has led him to hunt for one, death tolls increased by nearly three times, he'd quickly dash in after the opponent, if they escaped death, he'd keep going. If not, he just continues. This rampage of his was insane, but he always stopped to eat, which was strange for someone so insane. He rested his wounds before this of course, but ever since he started, not a single wound was sustained. It was obvious that the Shinobi countries would be feeling the bulk in kills now, for he mostly killed Jounins and Chuunins either on their way from, or to a mission. Now it was dangerous to go out, and crimes quickly began increasing. When he'd get to half his chakra, he'd stop for a bite to eat, and rest up. The insane look in his eye struck fear to those he slew, now it was obvious that stronger opponents would be sent by the countries. This idea he loved entirely.

"Heh... I wonder who they'll send me this time", said Karasu, whose already sat down to take a bite out of his dango. He didn't steal it surprisingly, he bought it, which was more of a surprise, and the shopkeeper was a little alarmed at the look in his eye.

"Well, whoever it is... I'll find him!".

[GenjutsuGaara]

OoC: Im gonna make it skip to the next day if thats ok with everyone? =) Also....WARNING! INCREDIBLY LONG SUPER POST DETECTED!! O_o

Jeison was still asleep outside the door. He snored rather loudly. As day turned to night, and night turned into another day. He awoke to his sister poking him. "Hey...Dummy, Wake up. I need to get in my office you slob." Kaiyana said. "Aah....What time is it?" Jeison asked hardly audible. "Its 9:00 am." She said looking out the window. Noticing an awkward looking bird. A grey swamp bird, the hidden reed villages bird. Kaiyana quickly knocked Jeison out of the chair and left him there. He groaned and whined and went back to snoring. He slept rather soundly this time. Not a noise came from him. Kaiyana opened the window. The weird looking bird flew in. It honked which was rather odd, considering most birds chirped. He looked at its leg. It was carrying a message. "Better not be a message of distress." Kaiyana though. She was wrong. She opened it. It was a request a higher class assassin would come to the village for a mission with one of their superior ninja. As she read a Jounin came in. A tall man with short black hair and a large mouth peice over his mouth. It was a breathing apparatus. "Ah, Hikari, What is it?" She asked with a smile. "Are you aware your brother is drunk on the floor outside?" He asked. His voice sounded like he was talking into a radio. "Haha! Hes not drunk. He hasn't slept in days since his last assassination mission. Speaking of, bring my idiot brother in here will you?" She asked politely. Hikari nodded. He walked out. She heard a light grunt. Hikari came in with Raika being dragged behind him. He let him go in front of the desk. Kaiyana walked around the desk and kicked him several times. "Hey...Hey....HEY!! WAKE UP!!!" She shouted at him. Jeison rolled over and got up slowly. "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?" He asked tiredly. Wobbling. Hikari took a few steps from him. "Read this." Kaiyana smucked him in the face with a tiny scroll. Jeison caught it and read it. He put it on the desk. "Lemme guess. You want me to go huh?" He asked with a huge yawn. Kaiyana nodded. He sighed and groaned and complained for several minutes. After he finished complaining he left the office and walked toward the village gate. Complaining and mumbling to himself. He stood at the village gate for a minute before he yawned and teleported to the base of the mountain. "The Hidden Reed village is to the west." He thought. He began his long journey.

Several hours later...

Jeison was going through a swamp. He walked carefully so not to fall and hurt himself. In the distance he could see some gates. "Finally...Im here." He thought. "Maybe I can get some food and meet some women or something." He finished thinking. He walked to the village gate and was halted by a large bald man. "Whaddya doin here kid?" He asked in a deep gruff voice. Jeison flicked the tiny scroll into the guards face. "Da kage's mansion is directly down the street." He said. "Thanks." Jeison said gratefully. He made his way there. He looked at the mansion. It was much bigger then hhe pictured. He walked in and looked around. Asking one of the other Jounin where the kages office was. He was directed and knocked on the kages door. He looked at the kage. A middle aged man with some grey hairs. "Im the assassin you wanted." Jeison said. The kage looked up and smiled. "Please, sit down and make yourself at home." The kage offered. Jeison did so and sat in a chair. He looked at the Kage. The 2 began to talk about the mission.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2 tracker-nin had been following Raika since day one. Disguised as a sparrow and a blue bird. They landed next to Raikas body. The quickly turned into humans. One had long hair just below his chest and had pasty white skine with a large black cloak over him. The other, Short curly brown hair with a light tan. The 2 looked at Raika. He had a smile on his face with a bunch of dried blood every where. "Should we take him back?" The long haired one asked. "Yes....He wants him to be buried along with the rest of the heroes in the village." the short haired one asked. They both reached down and grabbed him. They teleported away back to the village. Leaving the blood stains of the hero where he fought one of the most epic battles to be ever unseen. A light wind passed where the 3 once fought. The only sign of humanity there...Was the blood stain.

The 2 tracker nin reached the village. Day had become night. Nearly the entire village was at his funeral. Many people came to pay their respects at a large stone with other heroes names written on it. It was a large stone tablet at least 15 feet tall and 3 feet thick. Raika was buried right near the cenotaph. Many people stood there as the ceremonies happened. People came by, paid there respects, dropped flowers and gave him wishes of the best in the after life. And with that. Raika Kujirame was lowered into the ground and laid to rest. Finally sleeping peacefully in the clouds with so many other heroes and fallen warriors. His spirit danced and shouted hymns of health and healing over those in his village.

OoC: DONE! My god. That took forever! T_T Sorry, I just figured he deserved a really good way to go and a funeral. =P I hope you guys are cool with that.

[Naomi]

ooc: fine with me and omg that was a super post lol.

Tokalu had gone home and rested that night. He woke up to his alarm clock and went to train for a few hours. In the middle of his training another jounin aproached him "The kage wants you." he said to tokalu before disapearing. Maybe we have word from the other village he thought as he zipped over to the mansion and walked down the hall to the office. Tokalu knocked then entered the room and bowed. "Yes kage-sama?" tokalu said standing up stait again as he noticed the strange ninja in the room. "Well" the kage started "Meet your new partner. Hes from the storm village and is a top ranked assasin." Then the kage turned toward the kid "This is tokalu. he is the fastest and one of the best jounin in our village. He was the one who actualy asked me to find a partner for him. He was the one who survived the fight with the murderer karasu that yall will be chasing." so hes already told him the mission tokalu thought as the kage looked back at him "Tokalu tell him what you know and yall get gone...the faster we catch this lunatic the better." The kage left the office and tokalu turned to the new guy. "Well im tokalu and the guy were after is no joke. He killed one of the best ninja from the fire country. He is incredibly fast. I barely kept up. He wont show mercy but he isnt completly crazy...hes resonalbe and he has some sense of honor. He could have killed me but didnt. Past that he has some odd and confusing techniques and genjutsu just doesnt work on him. Thats all I know now lets go." Tokalu turned to leave the office waiting to see if his new 'partner' would fallow.

[GenjutsuGaara]

Jeison looked at the kid and smiled. "First thing is first. You won't be ordering me around. If anything its the other way weither or not you like it. I could kill you in a flash. Second you will tell me where he was last seen. Finally since your so fast you will act as a scout between us and other people and tell me weither or not they're looking for a fight or are just passer-bys. Understood?" He ordered with a smile. Jeison was also very commanding at times. But it was rare and when he traveled into other villages its basically what he did. He took control, but only because he was such a high rank. Jeison turned to Tokalu. "Even before we set out. Is there any place for Sake here?" He asked curiously.

[Naomi]

Tokalu laughed alittle. This guy had nerve to walk in and start ordering him around, and kill him in a flash? no. "Well" tokalu said smileing now "Ill agree that I may not order you around but you wont boss me around either. And for were karasu was last seen....well it doesnt matter because constantly on the move it seems." Tokalu paused and smirked again "As for me being a scout....I dont mind but im not going to do it as an order from you. Your not my boss afterall. Ask nicely and maybe ill do it." he said. "Oh and sake? that sounds great right now so lets go." tokalu said as he walked out of the room.This guys probobly going to think im a total dumbass for that tokalu thought.
