The last chapter that i made so far! just letting you know...chapter 11 is already in the making! About halfway done. but anyway, with my internet the way it is, researching certain characters for whats happening will be a bit...pissy. what i mean, is that it'll piss me off. Anyway, i miss interacting with Ino. That doesnt mean Ino is my favorite character, my favorite character is sasuke, hinata, madara, naruto, and then ino. Lets start chapter 10 now. COMMENCE!
The next day, I was very disappointed. We went on D-rank missions. Catching a cat, plucking weeds, finding lost items? These are ninja missions? I seriously wish to leave this village. If these were legit missions, then WHY did we learn everything we did? I mean we're ninja! Kinda. We should be learning how to kill. What if a war breaks out? If we can't kill someone, then we will die. Luckily I already killed two ninja, so I'm good. But a few weeks past, and we were given a better mission. A C-ranked mission. Amazing.
"So what we gotta do sensei?" Yanagi asked Ueda when we received our new mission.
"We are the bodyguards of a guy who is travelling to Sunagakure."
"Oh, really? Well what do we have to protect him from? The sun?"
"From any one that wants to attack him. As long as we get him there safely, we will get paid."
Sunagakure is located in the country of the wind, so deserts. I'll have to buy so specialized jackets for this. The next day came by, and I was dressed in a brownish-tan jacket, that had a snake's head on the hood, just like my white one, I had brown shorts, and I managed to upgrade my two fighting knives. I made them a bit longer and a bit more sharp. I also brought Ryu. You never know when an awesome red fire-breathing snake might come in handy.
As I waited for Ueda and who we are supposed to guard, I went through in my head everything I learned. But, the most important thing tugged at my mind. It made me not remember everything I learned, but it was a nice memory. The violin. I love violins. I miss my old violin.
"How long are we going to have to wait?" said Yanagi after a few minutes after he got to the gate.
"Probably when they get here." replied Chiko.
"And when is that?"
"I don't know..."
"Do you know Kuro?"
"Hm? No." I said as I pulled away from my thoughts. Thinking about my old world is becoming something of a habit. Usually because of what I always did everyday. Wake up, get ready for the day, eat, practice violin, school, practice piano, eat, take a relaxing bath, and then to sleep. Now I can do whatever I want, but I need something to do. I have too much free time.
"Ugh. I shouldn't have woken up so early..."
"If you didn't wake up early, you would've been late." I pointed out to Yanagi.
"What! You don't know that! I could've been on time!"
"Or not." After this little exchange, Ueda and the man we're suppose to protect finally arived. I stood up and prepared to leave with everyone else.
"Okay team. This will be our first C-ranked mission. Is there any questions?" said Ueda when he arrived.
"Oh, yes! Yes! Right here!" said Yanagi as he waved his hand in the air.
"Very good. Lets go."
"But what about..." I put a hand on Yanagi's shoulder to stop him. I shook my head and began following Ueda and Chiko.
On the road, walking past trees, rocks, grass, and other things, you get kinda tired. If you ever walked long distances, you would get tired of seeing the same thing, over and over again. Atleast have something different! Like, the tress down there have green leaves, the trees right here have pink leaves, and the trees up ahead have, I don't know, blue leaves! That would have been better than green tress everywhere! I need variety.
"So, what is your name anyway?" asked Chiko to the old guy.
"I'm Lawrence. You don't need to know anything else." said the Lawrence, the old guy, as he walked forward, not even looking at Chiko. He had grey hair, brown eyes, a brown vest with a black shirt underneath, and brown pants. He had a turban around his head. He had a big brown and red pack on his shoulders. Inside can only be stuff for the desert, personal stuff, and anything he's transporting. If hes transporting anything at all.
"Just ignore him Chiko. If we get attacked, then we'll just form a ring around him, or something." I told Chiko.
Chiko looked a little upset at my words, but she nodded anyway. "As much as I hate it, your right. He obviously wont talk anymore about himself. Ahh! I "so" wanted to know about the people from Sunagakure!"
We continued walking down that road that leads to the country of wind. One day after we left Konoha, we were attacked by bandits.
"If you want to continue past this point, you better pay the toll!" They had a wild look in their eyes and their movement. It was as if, they thought they would win simply having more people than us! I'll show them a thing or two. The formation to protect Lawrence, was Yanagi protecting his back and Chiko infront. They would protect him from anyone attacking them and from any projectiles. Me and Ueda will be attacking anyone that appears. In this case, since we're surrounded, I will be attacking the bandits infront of us, and Ueda will be attacking the ones from behind us. He made two shadow clones to attack the ones to our left and right.
There was a total of six bandits infront of us. I unzipped my jacket a little bit, incase I need to use my knive projectiles, and grabbed my two fighting knives. I licked my lips, ready for a fight. Two of the bandits charged me from the front, with an axe and a sword. I met them easily with my two knives. I blocked the axe and sword simultaneously, and then jabbed the knives into their guts, twisted, and pulled free of them. They fell forward, so I had to go around them to face the other four. Two more approached when I had to go around, so I had to act quickly. These knives weren't made for throwing at targets, so I threw them upwards and grabbed two knives from inside of my jacket. Reacting instantly that I saw the two men coming at me, I threw two knives into their throats. The two knives I threw upwards came down and I caught them both by the handle as I continued running forward, past the two falling bandits and to the last two infront of us. They didn't even had time to strike as I sliced one of my blades into one of their chests, and pointed my right sleeve at the other, signaling for Ryu to send out his flame. The other man was burned, but would live if he got good care. Unfortunately, he wouldn't be receiving any. Fortunately, Ryu stuck out his head far enough so that none of the fire touched me, or my knives. After Ryu finished spitting out fire, I turned around and retrived my the two knives I threw. Ueda and the others had also successfully cleared out the bandits.
"Are you okay Kuro?" A worried Chiko asked.
"I'm fine. I wasn't even injured. Go tend to Yanagi. He probably lost an arm or something."
"HEY! I still have BOTH my arms!"
"But your still missing a brain. Where could It have gone?"
Before Yanagi could give a comeback, Uega held up his hand. "We're going to continue our mission now. No moer bickering. And Yanagi. If you lost your arm, tell us." Uega began walking away, followed by Lawrence and Kuro.
"I didn't lose my arm!" Yanagi raged like there was no tomorrow. Chiko put her hand on his shoulder.
"Don't worry. They're just joking." She gave Yanagi a nice smile and then ran up to the others. A few seconds later, Yanagi followed.
A couple of hours later, we reached the border of the country of wind and the country of river. "So. Where is the border?" asked Yanagi, bored out of his mind.
"Somewhere infront of us. Maybe five minutes away. Or a day away. I don't care." I told him. I didn't really care how long it took us to finish this boring mission. The excitement from that bandit attack was just bad. They didn't really put up much of a fight. Yanagi even told me that the last one ran away! If only one of the ones I fought ran away...
"Hold up." Ueda put out his arm to block us from going any furthur.
"Is something wrong?" asked Chiko.
"Show yourself. There's no use in hiding now." Was someone there? Probably.
Then, a man walked out of the bushes. He had black short, spiky hair, mostly in the front, a tan shirt and tan pants. He wore black gloves that had metal in the knuckles and a black sword in his right hand. He was carrying his scabbard with his left hand. It was also black with red at the sides. He had bandages on his arms and legs. He wore the hidden sand headband on his right arm.
"Hahahaha. So you knew I was here? Good for you. Or bad for you. Either way, you'll be dead soon enough. Or you can just hand over the man and I might let you live." He had a pretty evil smile that matched his evil eyes.
"Who are you?" asked Ueda, pulling out a kunai and getting ready to battle. Yanagi took out two kunai and stood infront of Lawrence. Chiko, took out a kunai aswell and stood next to Lawrence. I unzipped my jacket a tiny bit and placed myself behind and to the right of Ueda. Ueda glanced at me, but then he looked back over at the enemy.
"I am Maizono Urakeichi. Since you now know my name, how 'bout you tell me yours? Not that it matters, but I like to know the names of the people I kill." Seems like a badass. Atleast he wont be walking away from an explosion without looking at it.
"I am Ueda Akihiro. The one closet to me, is Kuro. The girl is Chiko Sunada, and the other boy is Yanagi Toshikasu. And you wont be killing anyone of us." With his left hand, Ueda motioned to me to start the battle.
I fully unzipped my jacket, and quickly took out two knives and threw them at Maizono and attached them to chakra threads. When the knives got close, he moved out of the way, but I made one of the knives move into the other, which knocked it towards Maizono. His eyes widened, but then he moved at extreme speeds and cut my knife into two. The other one hit into the ground. But he quickly halved it before I manipulated it. I pulled out 3 knives in each of my hands, but didn't throw it.
Ueda ran towards Maizono, his kunai raised and ready for any sort of attack. "Wind style: Wind Bomb Blast Jutsu!" Maizono yelled after making a few handseals. Wind formed infront of him and then launched itself forward, cutting into the ground and trees as it flew forward. Ueda jumped backwards and countered with a "Earth style: Earth wall!" He slammed his hands to the ground, and a wall of earth rose up to block the wind style attack. The wall withstood the attack, but Maizono easily slashed through it. Maizono advanced to Ueda, preparing another attack. I ran to my right and hid behind a tree. I moved into the bushed and behind another tree as I tried to find a blind spot. When Maizono reached Ueda, he started to swing his sword. I threw two knives at Maizono, but he noticed them. He continued his swing, and when Ueda jumped out fo the way, he continued his swing and cut another of my knives in half. But he didn't know that there was another knife. The knife landed into Maizono's arm, but he quickly pulled it out and threw it in my direction. I moved out of the way, and grabbed my knife as it past me by the handle.
I let Ryu out of my sleeve and gave him instructions. Maybe a genjutsu will work. Ryu spat poison onto both of my attacking knives and hid back into my sleeve, only his head was showing a little. He was ready to use some fire. I got out of the bushes and ran towards Maizono, who was fighting Ueda with his sword and Ueda with his kunai. Ueda dodged each attack from Maizono, but Maizono dodged each attack by him. Ueda knew that if Maizono landed a hit on his kunai, his sword will probably cut it in half. The sword was very sharp. I ran up behind Maizono with both knives ready. Just in case, I had Ryu put poison onto another knife, but I might not need it. I slashed at Maizono from behind, but he jumped upwards and did a blackflip and landed behind me. "Wind style: Whirlwind Force!" A sudden whirlwind kicked in, i could barely stay in my spot! Then, my clothes and skin started being cut from the force of the wind! If I loosened up too much, I would get blown away. If I moved forward, I would only get cut more. "Earth style: Rock Golem!" A rock golem appeared and surrounded me and Ueda and blocked us from the whirlwind. Soon afterword, the whirlwind stopped and the golem stood up and turned towards Maizono. But he was gone.
I looked behind me and saw him back smack Yanagi in the face. He flew away and his body hit a tree. He fell down in great pain, but was he was still concious. I ran towards Maizono, taking out the knife I had Ryu put poison on. I threw the knife at Maizono, who effortlessly dodged. He turned towards me and raised his sword and pointed it at me. However, I wasn't throwing the knife at him. I threw it at the ground behind him. I manipulated the knife using the chakra threads I attached to it when I threw it, and made it rise into the air, turn, and sent it flying at Maizono. He sensed it and turned around. He knew he wouldn't be able to dodge or block it at this distance, so he moved his arm to take the blow. However, the poison was now in his body. I can now cast a genjutsu on him and he wouldn't even know. He screamed in fury, and then with surprising speed, he launched himself at me. He came to quickly, I couldn't pull out a knife in time. He swung his sword at me, aiming to kill me. I fell backwards. His sword sped past me, cutting me arm, but it didn't cut it too deeply. However, the pain was extraordinary. I grabbed my arm, where he cut me, and screamed in pain. Sure I killed a few people. But I didn't know it would hurt this much! Damn, that hurts. He then raised the sword and stabbed it down into my shoulder, stabbing right through it. When he took the sword out of my shoulder, I could barely think straight. My mind started blinking on and off, until it was mostly blank. I looked up at Maizono, who was glaring down at me. He raised his sword for the final attack.
"NO!" yelled Chiko as she ran towards me. Ueda was too far away, he was making sure Yanagi was okay, and that Lawrence was protected.
My thoughts then cleared. Everything became very tranquil. Maizono's blade flew down towards my body. However I wasn't worried. It wouldn't hit me. My eyes widened. I got up and jumped backwards enought so the blade would fly past me and strike the ground. I took out four of my knives with each hand. I jumped back even further and threw two from each hand. Maizono blocked three and dodged the other one. I used chakra threads to make them turn around and fly at him from four different directions; above, to his left, right, and behind him. I threw the remaining of my knives at him. I pulled out my wakizashi and ran forward. He blocked the knives in a crazy dance, but by manipulating thw knives with the threads, I made them slow down and dodge the attack, and then fly back at him. I made the knives move out of the way of the blade and continue flying at him. A knife sank into his knee and another hit his shoulder. He cut one in half, but another hit his arm. He moved out of the way of one, but another hit his other leg. I then reached him, and made all the knives fly up into the air and circle him. Flying around him clockwise, the knives were ready for any kind of attack. I made the knives get closer and closer, until the were almost touching, like a lasso. I reached Maizono and began my ferocious attack with my wakizashi. Our swords rang against each other as steel met steel. With a twitch of my finger, all of the knives flew down at Maizono's head. However, this was just to distact him. I pulled out a different knife, and thrust it into his face. He turned back towards me and looked at the knife. He moved his head and jumped backwards before the other knives stabbed into his head. However, the genjutsu was completed. I used the knife I pulled out to cast the genjutsu. This time, my genjutsu would make him see some funky things. However, it will only last a minute. I ran at Maizono, and stabbed him in the gut with my wakizashi. I pulled it out and began to stab him again, but three shuriken came out of nowhere. I had to stop my attack and block them before I they hit me. I jumped back and looked around me.
Suddenly, another man appeared, but he was focused more on Maizono than me. He jumped to Maizono and picked him up and started running away. However, I will not let them get away. I began running after them, but my legs gave in. I fell to the ground and hit my face and blacked out.
