Amaterasu rank training: 0/10
IC: The sun beat down on Amaterasu's neck as she walked through the village, smile on her face, twirling her paintbrush in her hand. she had recently gotten it from shishou and was told about the special properties it had. not quite believing him at first she swung it, thinking about a wakazashi as she did. it turned completely turned ebony black, as though it was composed of ink, and turned into the shape of a wakizashi, staying ebony black. Amaterasu stared at the weapon in amazement. looking to shishou she asked "How and where in the world did you get this?" he simply looked at her and smiled. "don't worry about such little details, this is a present from me to you." he said in a calm, smooth voice. she looked at the weapon, having had it turn back into a brush. "you can't use this yourself can you?" she asked. he only smiled and nodded. she sighed, no wonder he gave it to me. thanking him she left and headed back towards the village.
As she was walking back she decided to make a small detour and go to a small hill that was around that area that overlooked a forest. she was walking for about a half an hour before she noticed that she was being followed. calmly she kept walking, who ever was pursuing her was simply watching right now from a distance. she made her way into an open field and stopped, facing the direction her pursuers. seeing that they had been found out they revealed themselfs. there were three of them in large cloaks, she assumed there was two young men and a middle aged man by thier posture and how they lined up, the older one in front. "What do you want with me? I'm sure I haven't done anything to warrant an escort, or are you just captivated by my looks?" she said mockingly, grip tightening on her brush. "You are Amaterasu, are you not?" the lead man said, his voice gravely with age. "And what are you going to do about it if I am?" she replied angrily. the men drew their weapons. the lead man took out battle axe while the other two brought out katanas. "We have been hired to take your life. Please do not resist." the old man said, getting into an attack position. "Whoa there, hold on a second. Who the hell hired you to kill me and why?" she asked, confusion evident in her voice. "My job does not entitle me to a ask questions nor reveal who hired me. I will however tell you that they did say that your clan the hannyuu was a disgusting existence that need to be eradicated. I personally could care less." he said in an emotionless voice. Amaterasu was struck with anger, who the hell could these people be. the men charged, the older man going straight at her while the others tried to take flanking posistions.
Amaterasu acted fast. she first changed her weapon into a bow and fired two shots at both of the two that were trying to flank her while also backing up. the older man reached her as soon as she finished firing her last arrow. he swung his axe straight down, expecting to cleave the bow in half. she saw this strike right as he began to swing. instantly she changed it into a Bo, letting the blow glance down it as she angled it diagonally. suprised, the man stepped backwards realizing the amount of danger he was in. quickly Amaterasu stepped forward, changing the Bo into a katana, and swung diagnolly upward with her right shoulder leading. barely the man blocked it using the hilt of the axe. Amateasu pressed on even harder, swinging two more times in a X pattern. the man blocked the first attack but got hit in the right shoulder. gripping his shoulder he continued to back away, smiling ever so slightly. seeing his smile, amaterasu immediately ducked, dodging the incoming katana. as she did this, she spun around swinging her katana in the direction of the attack. she caught one of the younger men in the left side, cutting deep into him. time seemed to slow down as it enter the person, the cold steel cutting through meat and flesh, she could also feel the blade hit bone, cutting through even that. when she had finished cutting completely through him she noticed that she had severed his spine completely. he might be alive from that strike but he wouldn't live for very long.
He crumpled to the ground, time picking up speed again. the old man yelled some name that Amaterasu didn't catch, she was more worried about the other attacker. he was weilding a katana in his right hand and a wakizashi, rage evident on his face. Amaterasu reached into her bag and grabbed a buster knuckle, fitting it in her left hand. the man charged, swinging wildly with both swords, the power behind them seemed to cut through the air. Amaterasu danced to the side, not wanting to chance the power of his strikes. he lunged at her, stabbing with the katana while keeping the wakizashi in a finishing position. Amaterasu easilly dodged the attack, moving to his right side. simultaneously she also changed her blade into a nekode. quickly she brought down her buster knuckle into his left shoulder, breaking his collar bone. he let out a cry of pain but was silenced quickly as she sunk the nekode deep into the mans back, destroying the upper part of his spinal column while also cutting off his wind pipe. she pulled the weapon out, listening to the low gurguling sound he made as blood flooded his lungs. he hit the ground hard and stayed there, twitching every so often.
The old man was horror struck as he looked at the scene that had just taken place. Amaterasu swung her weapon at him flinging blood across his face. "huh, maybe they were right about me being a disgusting existence." she said coldly, changing her weapn into a katana once more. slowly she began to walk toward him, the tip of her blade lightly dragging across the ground. he started to back away, shaking violently. he brought his axe to bare once more, though with only one hand. as soon as she came into range he swung at her. when he did this she side stepped and swung upwards severing his arm. the man cried in agony as his knees gave out, putting him into a kneeling position. she walked behind him, resting the side of her blade on his right shoulder. "I will give you one more chance to tell me who ordered you to kill me. if you do so then I won't kill you." she said, her eyes piercing through the man. "I would rather die than tarnish m-" his sentense interupted as her blade entered his neck and severed his head. his body flopped to the ground with a sicking thud. Amaterasu looked at the bodies and sighed. none of them had a bloodline. she then changed her weapon back into a paintbrush and continued to the hill. when she got there she found that siato was already there, watching the now setting sun. apon reaching him she saw that he had a look of slight despair and anger. she didn't say a word, she simply sat down next to him, rested her head on his shoulder and watched the sun set with him. _________________ 4 Auto-learn jutsu A-rank or lower (no kin)

IC:
Saito sighed as he walked through Iwa, boredom taking its toll on him. Amaterasu was visiting shishou and probably wouldn't be back for a while. He had decided to kill time by walking around the village but it was evident that it wasn't working to well. He looked around and spied a cafe to his right. Figuring it would kill time he went in and ordered tea. As he waited to be served he looked around the room. There was a group of girls in the corner gossiping about useless things and four people in the back talking quietly about something that must be important since a few of them wore a serious face.
As Saito sat there and sipped the tea he ordered, he noticed that occasionally one of the people in the group in the back would look at him with a glare and then go back to what ever they were talking about. This made Saito a bit unsettled. After he was done with his drink he got up and left the cafe, keeping an eye on the people in the back. He walked around town a bit more with no real destination in mind. After about fifteen minutes of walking he arrived at a place he had frequently went to when he was little, it was a playground. Nostalgia swept over him as he walked around the play equipment. It had been over eight years since he last went there yet nothing had changed. The times when he would play with the other children and then watch the stars when they had left seemed like it had been ages ago in a different life. Now it was but a cold and hollow place that reminded him of when he had been found out about what he truly was, a monster.
Saito shook his head. Such useless thoughts were meaningless. It was all in the past, were it would hopefully stay. He flexed his hand, thinking of the jutsu he had to turn them into demonic claws. He remembered the pain from the transformation and the slight pleasure he found when he had first dug them into an attacker years ago. He felt alive and disgusted at himself for the pleasure he had as he felt the blood flow down to the tips of his claws and drip off in beautiful crimson droplets. Saito shuddered at the memory, felling the cold, dampness of the past blood on his hands. He gripped his head, headache beginning to set in. it had been about a week since he had last fed and it was beginning to take its toll on him. He walked away from the playground still gripping his head as he fought through the ever-increasing pain that mounted. He walked aimlessly once again, stumbling every so often as he feet dragged against the ground. After about fifteen minutes he came to the edge of town. He looked at the sky and noticed that it would soon be sunset. Judging by what Amaterasu tended to do he decided to go to the hill they would always hang out at when they got tired of the village
he hadn't been going through the forest long before he noticed that he was being tailed. He hadn't done anything recently to really cause him to be tailed so he came to the conclusion that it must be personal. ”this could pose to be a problem.” he said to himself with concern. He quickly sped up and brought out some wire and a few shuriken. If he was going to face them then he had better have a back up plan and a few traps. He set to work. As he finished the last of his traps the pursuers arrived. Saito smiled when he saw that they had landed right in the perfect spot for him, the traps would perform nicely against them there. He walked forward so that they could see him. It was two of the people from the back of the cafe, both were about in their twenty's with a semi-muscular build, weapons in hand. ”What business do you have with me? I have done nothing to harm you.” Saito asked in a calm and commanding voice. “ Filth like you has no right to talk to us like that. And actually you have done harm to us. Your mere existence is harming the nature and is bringing people down the path of evil, blocking the light of god from their eyes with your dark veil of deceit and treachery. By the power of god and the holy church, we have come to cleanse this place of your evil by eliminating you, the root of all evil. Prepare yourself, foul creature. the man said, hands in the air as if he was professing gods intension. Saito sighed, he hated these kinds of religious nut jobs that liked to take things into their own hands. So, I take it that we can’t resolve this without conflict. Then I hope that you will not feel regret when you fall.” Saito said, flexing his hands as he gathered charka into them as they began to transform.
The men were horror struck when they saw he’s hands transform into demonic claws. Saito simply looked at them. ”What. I thought you came here to destroy a demon. Well I will grant you the honor of meeting one, but it will be the last thing you see.” he menacingly growled. He two kunai, one in each hand, threw them out to the sides and charged. As he ran at the men, twelve kunai, six from each trap, flew at the men from their sides. Taken by surprise the men reacted. One stood his ground tried to block and dodge as many as he could, this resulted in him getting a few cuts and a kunai in his left calf, it was in almost half way. The other panicked and backpedaled, a stupid move. After about three steps he triggered the trip wire that Saito had set up, sending a barrage of shuriken at him from above. He spun around and tried to deflect them but was too late to deflect a majority of them, which resulted in him getting three lodged in his torso, one in his right shoulder and two in his lower torso, two deep cut on his left leg and a removal of most of his right ear. At the same time Saito had engaged in battle with the other one. The man was a skilled fighter but the wound from the kunai hampered his movement and continued to bleed. With the situation going down hill, the man attempted to get away from Saito and regroup with his partner, this left his left side wide open. As soon as Saito saw this opening he took it, flattening out his right hand so that he could more easily pierce him. His hand entered through the shoulder, shattering the collarbone and destroying the upper part of his lung. The man let out a cry of pain as Saito hit him, blood spewing out from the exit wound in his back. Quickly Saito pulled his hand out, this was met with another cry of pain though it was more of a gasp no since his air capacity had dropped by over half because his other lung was also filling with blood. He managed to stay upright for a moment longer before he succumbed to the pain and fell to the ground convulsing.
Saito turned to the other man, licking the blood from his claws. Horror grew across the man’s face as he got to his feet and began to slow walk backwards. ”Are you sure you want to do that?” Saito said, grinning evilly. Quickly the man looked back, panic evident on his face. Saito smiled, his arrogance was amazing. Quickly he dash forward, arriving to were man was right as he realized there was nothing there. Saito changed his hands back to their original form and punched him in the stomach knocking the wind out of him and forcing him into unconsciousness. When he woke he found that the world had flipped upside down. After a second he realized that he was simply strung upside down but the way it was done was strange, he tried to move. He was immediately met with an immense amount of pain in his hands and feet. He had been placed on a very large tree, there was kunai in his hands and feet. They were placed in a way so that he would remain in that position until they were removed. Saito came from around the tree to face him, his neck directly level with Saito’s head. ”If your wondering what position your in, it’s the form of a crucifixion. A bit fitting considering what I am and who my ancestors are. This is where you will pay for your sins. May god have mercy on your soul. said Saito as he reached out and grabbed the man’s head. With one swift motion Saito put his mouth to the man’s neck, bit down, and ripped out his throat and carotid artery. Immediately the man began gasping for breath through the pain. Saito smiled again with sick pleasure. He then bent his head and drank. He left soon after that, leaving the body as it was, and went to the hill. It took him half an hour to get to the top of it. It had a single tree on the top that had a great view of the sunset. As he looked at the tree he remembered his mother and how this was the place were her soul was purified. Quietly he sat down and leaned against the tree. It took Amaterasu twenty minutes to finally, she didn’t say a word when she got there. She simply sat down next to him, rested her head against his shoulder, and watched the sunset with him. _________________ 4 Auto-learn jutsu A-rank or lower (no kin)

Amaterasu Rank Train 5.5/7
the breeze was blowing slightly as Saito and Amaterasu sat on the hill watching the moon rise. the cool wind lazily swept across the hill as the heat from that day escaped from the earth. Amaterasu drew closer to Saito, hoping the slight chill would be a good excuse. they sat there for a good hour before Saito finally the silence. Say, Ammy. do you ever regret being born into this world of constant evil and violence? He asked, his eyes showed signs of regret and frustration. Amaterasu sighed, he only used that nickname when there was either something wrong or when she asked him to.
Sure, there are times. but i still wouldn't act on such a dumb thought. all you need to do is find and keep hold of that which gives you true happiness. sure that might sound corny but it really is the truth. for me it's to keep painting and be able to explore the world outside, and there is also you, my most dearest friend. please remember that I'm always here for you. she said, standing up and stretching. Saito simply smiled. yeah your right. he said mildly. damn right i am. she replied slyly. slowly she began walking down the hill. she took out her wakazashi and began swinging it in large, beautiful arcs. yes she thought, it's time we set out to find our true selves and prove our worth to the world _________________ 4 Auto-learn jutsu A-rank or lower (no kin)
