the ghost district (risako, yen)

mission specs:

Draconis was working on his method of turning invisible. It was a jutsu called the Hiding with Camoflauge technique and it was first made famous by a Tsuchikage of long ago, the second or third, he could not remember exactly. There was only one reason he was trying to learn it - stealth. Using the Byakugan he was trying to manipulate the light around him such that he could be not seen, but he was having little success.

He sighed, and sat down on the park bench. He and some other genin had been assigned to do this mission and he had not learned their names, only the meeting place. Weird, considering there was no leader for the team either. Anyone approaching would see him with a bit of a frown going.

[I'm timelining this from a nother mission, which im about to complete.] 

Risako strolled along slowly, thinking about the little brat that she had just caught. Mostly, thinking of how fun it would be to drive a blade into his stomach, or burn him to a crisp, maybe even just pluck out an eyelash or two. After turning that one in, and splitting the reward from Aruto, she was immediately given another mission. Her bed rooted deep in the back of her mind, she almost turned it down, but the thought of money sounded better than relaxation. 

As the meeting spot came into sight, she saw a semi-familiar face. Risako would wave as she approached.

A mission huh Yen thought to himself as he wandered through the thickets of the trees.  His figure was oddly light for this time he lacked his usual large bag of cooking supplies and was feeling great with a rest for the day off from his hobby. Looking among and around himself for a source of water to work wonders with his water ninjutsu. "rats is there not enough water around here to work a small bottle of water at least a viable scource to work with while on a mission." yen thought to himself for a moment and smiled. "Whatever I can make something out of that later." " ah the soreness" Yen muttered to himself feeling the effects of his recent endeavors.
 
Yen noted a boy sitting on a park bench with a frown. Yen walked up and waved at the boy. "hey how are you doing?" yen spoke  up and tipped his straw hat in greeting to the boy. As he noted his frustrated demeanor Yen took also in account the way the young sported with a few notable scars on his face and his white eyes. Those are some pretty wicked scars… is he a Battle harden hyuuga?  Yen thought to himself as he looked the boy over through his yellow visors.

Draconis was working on his method of turning invisible. It was a jutsu called the Hiding with Camoflauge technique and it was first made famous by a Tsuchikage of long ago, the second or third, he could not remember exactly. There was only one reason he was trying to learn it - stealth. Using the Byakugan he was trying to manipulate the light around him such that he could be not seen, but he was having little success.

He sighed, and sat down on the park bench. He and some other genin had been assigned to do this mission and he had not learned their names, only the meeting place. Weird, considering there was no leader for the team either. Anyone approaching would see him with a bit of a frown going.


The Hyena was grumbling to himself. The issue was not so much that the village was going to the dogs, as it was showing signs of improvement. The issue now was that as far as he was concerned, his team mates were late. He began muttering under his breath, unwittingly, the sound being un-audible but loud enough that others noticed. This, combined with his none too pleasant looks, was rather instrumental in clearing a massive area around him, with new people being scared away every moment. Eventually even he noticed and wondered if it would be less scary if he managed to mutter loudly while invisible. Perhaps they would believe a ghost had come to visit, it WAS the Okinaga district after all.

Speaking of which… he reviewed the mission details in his mind. There were some suprising sounds emanating from this very district even though nobody lived here anymore, the sounds being the clearest in the middle of the night. It was getting near sunset now, the team mates he was supposed to have should arrive soon, so that they could coordinate a stake out. Where were they anyway?

While he waited, he was reviewing the basics of the jutsu he was trying to learn, the Hiding with Camoflauge jutsu, since he had nothing better to do, the mission clear in his mind. The jutsu would come in handy on missions like this, since he would be able to remain hidden and unsuspecting trouble makers might walk right by him. He held one hand in front of his face, and began trying to bend light around it, not aiming to make it look invisible, as that would be harder. Instead, he was trying to alter the light so that it turned a bright red. This was easier said than done though, and after a while he stopped, and put his hand back down on the bench beside him, his eyes impatient as they stared around him, looking for more ninjas to show up.

Eventually they did. One of them he had encountered in the streets soon after a rabid dog (probably no relation) and the other, coming from the other direction, he did not recognize. Neither of them seemed to notice each other, only him, so he waited until they got closer to talk.

The first one he greeted, was the one he had seen before. “Hello, Risako, are you also assigned to investigate the nasty sounds coming from this area at night?” Turning to the other, who stopped to talk to him, The Hyena examined his face under the obscuring clothing and, well, something looked weird. No ordinary person would look like that, with the bugs. This guy had to be a ninja of some kind. “Who might you be? Are you also supposed to check out this place and figure out what is happening at night? What is with the bugs by the way?”

(ttl wc: 619/1333.3333333333
I use the Byakugan to sneak a peek at yen btw)

Risako kept on a stepping. Hopefully this guy was one of her partners for the mission, because he could easily just scare off whatever was going bump in the night. Risako of course, had nothing against his nightmarish features. Ok, nightmarish may have been a strong word, let's water that down a bit. Uhh... I guess ugly? Yea. Just good ol ugly. That's what he was. Nightmarish is when you walk in on your mom and pop doing the hanky panky. 


Back to the story, the girl approached to the sight of a familiar face, and addressed him as such. "Sup?"


After the Hyena stated his business, she would reply with a quick "Nasty sounds are always my business." It didn't cross her mind that this sentence could be misconstrued, and twisted. 


It was then that Yensung approached, whom Risako had already had the pleasure of meeting... and spilling his cooking supplies. The girl felt like a dick about, so it should be ok. She would look over to him, and say "Hey there Yen!" Risako was awfully cheery for just being pissed off a few moments ago. 


[Sorry for it being so short, I'll add more if you take a while to respond. 188+115=303]

[done]

Yen noted the young man’s question and acknowledgement and replied with a tip of his straw hat and a high pitched pip of his voice. “My name is yensung but just call me yen. and the bugs they are my best friends and closest allies. They won’t bite you unless i tell them to." yen pointed a finger at the boy and a female insect came out of his finger at the simple mental command of come out. The differences between yen's insects and other onsects would not be as apparent unless they would’ve had sharp eyes, but the appendages on the bugs back side had a very small but bright blue strand of thread coming from the small opening in the back. 
 
Yen chuckled and spoke to the young man again. "here! she won’t bite unless you do something stupid or attack me. by the way whats your name? noting your eyes you must be a hyuuga!" yen smiled and sent a quick mental command to the female insect. Go to the boy just don’t attack him the small female insect flew over to the boy and would land on his shoulder if permitted. the mentioning of his name to his left would cause yen to smile and turn as he was thrilled to see the ever cute risako stroll up to the two boys. "ah! hello cute risako. so your on this mission too as well eh? Perfect!" yen stepped to the right and smiled at both of the village mates one sitting on the bench another standing there.

noting that the members were all there yen smiled and spoke up "So this mission has us investigating some strange sound here? I am positive this thing is nothing more than some roof tile undone or a hollow area where wind blows through. sounds simple to the solution right? I would say if we hear something we check it." 
 
Yen put two thumbs up as he looked at both risako and the boy, and said enthusiastically "easy money and work! right?! So all we have to do is wait and be patient till this is all done." Yen awaited both of their responses to his statement.

Looks like Risako and Yensung had met before, and they were not enemies. That was good, as dissension in the ranks would cause trouble during the mission. “Indeed, apparently we are supposed to track down the source of the noise. Like that guy running around with the noise maker over there? Or the suspicious looking guy over there?”

The Hyena shrugged, and waited to see what his teammates wanted to do.

(should we take turns on different missions deciding what course the mission takes, to make stuff easier to roleplay? So for instance, on one missions, we could say risako finds some bandits, and on another, yen finds a corrupt carpenter, etc. each time those being the focus of the mission. With 3 of us the wc is much reduced lol)

[Just before I go write a big long post, you mean we should split up and just do 3 different things right?]

(nah we decide what occurs within the mission boundaries. say the sound is caused by a prankster. or random thing)
