CHP 4
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The earth shakes once again then men take a glance back and watch as the beast begins to creep on after them. Its chilling body and Night sky body moved faster to kill these to men. Burakku looks back and examines the scorpion he begins to analyze a possible solution to their predicament.

The scorpions tail snaps forth like a whip and rushes right at them. "Look out" Burakku warns as the tail slams into the ground between them.

The two men back away and watch as the goopy black substance stained and discolors the ground around its mark. "That was close" Ihai sighs with relief.

"I got a plan Ihai follow me!" commands Burakku. Ihai looks on wondering what could his partner have planned.

"Alright lets go" agreed Ihai. The scorpion immediately retracted its tail. The boy gripped on tight he had a feeling something was about to happen.

"Kid you had better hold on." Burakku suggested to the boy.

The man took a deep breath and with it he saw his building of choice. "Lets go!" ordered Burakku. He ran towards a very tall building at the same time he focused his chakra towards his feet evenly and precisely. As they ran up the side of the building Burakku takes notice name of the building The Sayian Gaming Corporation: The Next Generation Of Console Gaming, Burakku just shakes his head in disbelief "What a waste of money" he sighs.

Ihai immediately mirrored his every action and soon both Hunter Nin where running up the walls of the building sweeping through the obstacle course of windows and balconies.

"DARK ELEMENT DARK OIL SHOT" the demon roars as it sends another blast of darkness towards the two ninja as they run up the building. The intense beam pierces into the building and trails behind them sending glass and shrapnel everywhere.

"When I say jump,JUMP!" commands Burakku his military discipline and respectability keeps his men focused and on the ball, while the dark beam keeps trailing behind them.

The scorpion cancels it Dark Oil Shot and whips its tail back and prepares to strike them if they jumped mid air. "Jump!" screams Burakku. Both men leap into the air. The rush of air grazes their hair as they soar into the sky. The scorpion saw its chance and cracked its whip like tail its massive tail zoomed through the air towards the Hunter Nin. "Idiot" smiled Burakku.

The tail comes within several feet of the men at the last second before impact. Burakku and Ihai spiral in the air and avoid the barbed blade within seconds. The two ninja land on top of the tail kneel down and wait for the tail to hit the tower. The men hold on as the tail approaches the tower. Burakku sighs with relief and for once can rest for a few seconds. They where just 50 feet away from the tower Burakku and Ihai stand in wait and prepare to jump through the window.
The seconds seemed like hours as the building approached closer and closer.

Sweat dripped from Burakku's face as his breaths became even more heavy and deep. There in perfect timing both men leaped for the window. Burakku smashed through the window head first shattering it to pieces as glass fell everywhere he rolled across the floor shielding the boy from the impact.

He checks his surroundings and looks around he spots his partner nowhere in sight he looks on out the window ands sees his partner his foot being sucked down into the scorpions body. "s" ,he mumbles.

Suddenly a robed figure approaches him he examines the man and recognizes his garments are those that a typical monk would where. "Well its about time hurry if your wish to save your friend." The monk suggests.

Burakku picks up the kid "Wh..Where sh..Should I.. p...p..put him?" Burakku stutters in panic he did not want to have a comrade die on his watch not ever.

"There on the altar quickly before its to late." the monk commands again. Burakku looks around and sees the small shrine he walks across the hard tile floor and places him on the well lit candle filled shrine. "Good now step back and leaver the rest to me." the monk insists.

Burakku immediately looks out the window his comrade was now waste deep in dark goopy oil and sinking even quicker by the second. "Hold on!" he reassures his friend. The monk channels his chakra and performs numerous complex hand seals at a blazing speed. Burakku looks on in sheer amazement at the focus of this man and skill this monk has.The monks hands shined a eerie red glow. Within seconds the monk pointed one glowing red hand at the scorpion and one down at the boy.

The monks body began to stain sweat dripped from his shinny Shaved head has he kept his composure."Divination Blood Bond Seal" The monk yelled out. Now both the boy and the scorpion began to glow a eerie red. The monk then moved his hand that was pointed at the scorpion and pointed it down at the boy. The scorpion immediately stopped moving. The beasts eyes stopped glowing as its body began to dematerialize. Its body fell apart and disappeared piece by piece and slowly began to transfer into the boys body.

Within minutes the task was halfway complete Burakku watches on sheer amazement that this beast is now defeated. "I see, so they weren't planning on killing this monster all along, instead they chose create a jinchuuriki as a way of dealing with this monster and containing it and keeping under control, very clever." he smiled.

The last bit of the scorpion transfered into the boy as the last bit transfered a seal was placed on his body and numerous exoskeleton like markings appeared on the boys body as well as black tail marking on his lower back region. The task was complete and the village was saved. "Thank you" the monk smiled.

"No big deal" shrugged Burakku as he wiped the sweat off his face. Just then a shady figure approached the two men and caught Burakku's attention.

Burakku immediately recognized him as Byouku the head of the Hidden Ruin ANBU organization. "Good job taking care of that demon now out of the way and let me kill the kid and end the nightmare once and for all.

The monk speechless from this mans lack of sincerity immediately steps in his way. "Out of the question, leave this child be." He defends.

"Monk stay out of my way." Byouku threatens.

Burakku who clearly has had a long night has heard enough, he cracks his knuckles and walks over to the man."You know what Byouku your just the man I have been waiting to see all night", he grins. And without any warning he punches Byouku hard into his stomach.

Byouku lets out a grunt and coughs up blood and falls down to his knees and grimaces in pain, shortly afterward Burakku follows through with a hard left hook and that sends Byouku flying into a wall that knocks the head of the ANBU out cold. "Like what the old man said out of the question." he smiles.

Suddenly, it hit him, he then remembers Ihai and looks out the broken window. The sun was rising and pleasant and soothing sight for such a chaotic and blood stained night. He looks scans down and sees his partner patting off the dirt of his clothes."Hey, Ihai are you all right?" he asks.

"Yeah, I have been a hell of a lot better, when are we heading back home?",Ihai asks.

Burakku laughs at his suggestion "We still have two more Inryoku's left then we can relax." Burakku mentions.

Ihai immediately throws his kunai at the ground "Oh god damn it." he remarks.

Burakku laughs once again but stops to ask the monk if he can pray for the people he had to kill this night. The monk grants his approval and Burakku says one final prayer. "I'm guessing you will be heading out again." The monk asks.

"Yeah we still have two more left and these two promise to be even more difficult than that monster was." Burakku replies.

"Then I wish you luck" the monk bids his farewell.

"Yeah ,yeah whatever I don't believe in luck" Burakku practically replies and pulls out a box of cigarettes and begins to smoke. He bids his farewell and leaps from the tour and lands besides his comrade.

Both ninja then slowly walk away out of the wrecked town. They knew it wouldn't be long before this town was back to normal as with all towns it shall rebuild itself and grow stronger. The two hunter Nin then vanish head off on their quest to take down the other two targets and complete their mission. These two men eventual became known as the ninja in black.

Later on that day the child awakens and slowly gets up. He examines his surrounding and has no idea where he is.

"Wh..where am I?" he asks. I see you have awoken Kanabun so how are you feeling?" the monk asks.

"The monster.. where did it?"

"Gone those strangers took care of him"

"Who where they?"

"They are Hunter Nin from another village they track down and kill the bad guys and people that pose a threat for nation or have committed a crime."

"Thats sounds cool you think I could become one someday I cant wait to tell my parents, my family, my brother ,my sister and everybody else what I want to be when I grow up. Do you think they will be proud of me?"

The monk looks on slight saddened and heart broken by this child's words he could bear to tell him his family was dead and that those men where the ones responsible for it.

"Sure Kanabun, they would be proud of you." he replies with a tear in his eye.
