The Path A Ninja Walks...

This Is My Nindo, My Ninja Way!

This Is My Nindo...

-Hana-

To Make The World A More Beautiful Place...

They say "Beauty" is in the eye of the beholder...

I believe this to be true.

But beauty is more than just skin deep.

It's more than what meets the eye.

My name is Hana Kimouri. We are a quiet clan that specialize in the flower arts...

From Arrangements to Battle technique, our jutsu is also flower based and oriented. This makes Genjutsu our strong point.

We do have a few flower based Ninjutsu, but we are infamous for genjutsu.

We distract opponents with an illusion of beauty. An illusion that deep inside, I want to make into a reality.

I Dream of a beautiful world...

And I want to make this beautiful world a world covered in flowers.

beauty isn't just in eye view...

Making the world a better place to be in...to live and grow in...

This is also a way of making it more beautiful, and it is for this goal that I will fight!

I Too, will become a ninja, for the sake of those who live in this world with me.

For this goal, to make this dream into a reality...

I will fight to make the world more beautiful by making it to be a better place to be in.!

This is my Nindo...My Ninja Way!

This Is My Nindo...

-Sage-

To open eyes to the true colors of life.

My name is Sage Amesawa, a typical young ninja-to-be of The Hidden Leaf Village.

The Amesawa clan isn't very big. It's not famous...And it's not "Special".

In fact, we are probably the smallest clan of The Hidden leaf Village, but we are still just as worth it as any other clan!

We are often referred to as "Hidden Leaf Hippies" because we are a peace-loving clan that stride for peace, beauty, love and happiness and we express this through color.

Even our clan's special Jutsu are coordinated by color.

It's an odd set up...one that is unique and only fitted for those of the Amesawa clan.

Color jutsu is rare and 's unpredictable, and its power differs depending on color as well.

The Darker the color jutsu the more dangerous Ninjutsu it is.

The Brighter the color the faster Taijutsu it is.

The Softer the color the more powerful the genjutsu...etc.

It's a very difficult and and complex thing to understand, let alone to master it, and it's only unique to us of the Amesawa clan.

As a lower level beginner ninja of the Amesawa clan...

or...a genin...we are taught the basic colors, Red Art, Orange Art, Yellow Art, Green Art, Blue Art, and Purple Art.

These a re basic colors that range mainly in Ninjutsu and Taijutsu.

Red, Orange, And Yellow Arts are Taijutsu, Green Blue and Purple Arts are Ninjutsu.

Next we have The Pastel Arts which range in the same colors,

Pastel Art: Pink, Pastel Art: Peach, Pastel Art: Yellow, Pastel Art: Green, Pastel Art: Blue, Pastel Art: Lavender.

These are all genjutsu, the higher the color the more powerful the illusion.

For this concept, think of the rainbow in pastel colors and you may have the basic idea.

Rainbow Arts are a combination of any and all of these colors listed.

They take a great deal of Chakra so one has GOT to have great Chakra control in order to use Color Arts...luckily~ my clan is great in just that!

Of the Color Arts there are only two that any color Ninja wishes to master...however they can not ever be mastered until all of the Basic Color Arts and Pastel Color Arts are mastered first.

One is all powerful and should not be used except as a last resort...

One is Forbidden...and must NEVER be used...ever.

The All powerful Art is White Art...it's strong and takes a great deal of Chakra.

The Forbidden Art is Black Art...it's strong and completely drains you, and costs your life...a price one of the Amesawa Clan is forbidden to pay unless by honor bound duty...such as war for our village and clan name...or...if killed in action.

We see life as a gift...to waste it is a symbol of the greatest shame in the Amesawa Clan.

However, to have mastered all Color Arts is a Symbol of the strongest Ninjas of the Amesawa Clan.

I, of course, also aim to have this title as well!

But...I also have a goal in mind.

I aim to open eyes.

My clan has always gotten a lot of shit because of our way of life.

But I am a proud member of the Amesawa Clan! I believe our way of life is genuine and I support it.

I will continue to live on as a proud Amesawa.

I will continue to spread our way of life and virtues of peace, love, beauty and happiness...

Life is a precious thing, we should cherish it and not take it for granted, but live life to the fullest every minute of every day and really see life's true vibrant colors.

To open eyes to the true vibrant colors of the world and life itself...

This is My Nindo...My Ninja Way!

This Is My Nindo...

-Saseme-

Uchiha...

So is my name given...and so, I am...though, it does not make all of me.

To Seek Truth And Reason...

My name...is Saseme Uchiha.

One of the few, if any left, of the Uchiha Clan aside from my twin brother, Sasuke.

In a single night, by one man alone, our entire clan was slaughtered, marking the end of our bloodline.

This man was my big brother...Itachi Uchiha.

But I refuse to believe this truth.

My story is a dark one,and it's rather sad.

But none-the-less, it's a story worth telling.

One that should be told.

I'm the youngest of my family...despite being a twin.

On top of this I am also a girl, so not a lot is expected of me.

I had two big brothers of whom which I adored, ahead of me...

My oldest brother, Itachi, who was the pride and joy of The Uchiha clan, and my twin brother Sasuke, who wasn't quite Itachi's level, but was still no slouch.

I am actually more advanced than Sasuke...

In fact, I was placed in a class year above him.

As proud as Sasuke was of me, this also slightly pissed him off...but he used it as motivation to work even harder which in turn, made me proud of him and also motivates me.

However, my father didn't seem to notice at all, and my mother never really paid it any mind.

I was treated as one of those, "Daddy's Little Girl" types, to be raised to be a good wife instead of a good Ninja...

This life style however, just didn't suit me.

It just wasn't my cup of tea.

Sasuke knows this...and so did Itachi.

When it came to him, no one understood me better.

Every now and then Itachi would teach me things from time to time...

That is, when he had the time.

Sasuke and I used to train together and spar with eachother all the time.

I Cherished my big brothers...

I adored Itachi...

I admired him greatly and loved him very much...And I still do.

He was always so gentle with me...

For the longest time I denied the truth about him.

I refused to believe that my gentle, peace-loving big brother Itachi was the cold blooded murderer of our clan that the village and Sasuke made him out to be...

Even though I knew he was.

Even Seeing it with my own eyes.

I still refuse to believe it.

Even today...I still deny this truth.

I just can't bring myself to see Itachi as a bad man...no matter how I try.

Because somewhere deep inside me I believe that there is somthing much more to it. Something greater than Sasuke and I could possibly understand right now at our young age...

The Itachi I knew and loved...

My big brother would never do somthing like that without a reason to it...

I just know it.

There's just no way he could...

There has to be a reason.

I truly believe this from the bottom of my heart.

I have faith in my big brother.

I know there's something more...

And I plan to find out.

I'll prove it...and bring him home...so we can be a fmily again...
