Starting Off Wrong (Mission)

Spoiler:

drip...drip...drip

The water from the rain cascaded around Oda as he lay in a pile of hay. A pile of hay? Yeah, he had read about it once in a book. A book about some Ninja Assassin named Ezio or so he thought he did? As he laid in the hay, he had made a make shift opening from shifting around the hard strands of grass. A opening that was wide enough so that he could peer through it in order to spy on the merchants that were about to bring a wagon of supplies from around the corner. At the moment, he was really down bad. It was hard for a Missing Ninja to survive on his own unless he was a pretty powerful one, but Oda was neither of those. He was only a kid just entering his teenage years. Yeah, he had figured out and basically mastered the manipulation of his Chakra Chains and they could kill nearly anyone he came against, but there were rare times when he faced off against Chuunin or Jounin from the Ninja Villages. Most of the time the outcome landing him in situations where he would be really hurt and had to escape.

He would frown from his spot in the hay. As he had just heard and felt his stomach growling. How long had it been since he was without food? Three days? Four? Truth be told, at this point he really didn’t know. It was hard when you had to drink water and go to sleep. Hoping that it would get him full. Sometimes it worked since he went to sleep afterwards, but he would often find himself awakening from a heated sleep. And he was really tired of that. At the moment he didn’t care who he was about to go up against. The only thing he knew was that he needed food and he was about to fight and die trying to get it. As the rain fell, the thick hay would seem to grow softer if that was even possible. With the shifting of every breath. The noise from the hay’s movement would stop. Although it had be covered by the thudding rain from the heavens. However, something would overcome the sound of the thundering rain. A wagon wheel would be heard screeching as it made its way through the thick mud.

thump...thump...thump

The hooves of the two horses pulling the wagon could be heard. From sound alone, Oda could tell that the wagon was only about twenty meters away from his current location and that meant that it was slowly nearing the range of his Chakra Chains. He almost felt sorry about the fate that was about to fall upon whoever was controlling the horses. As the wagon made its way into the sight of Oda. A single chain would be produced from the tenketsu in the middle of his chest. It made its way through the hay and the rain as if it was avoiding every particle that would be able to make contact with it, the but the same could be said for the horse. The world would seem to go dark as the blades hook would cut its way through the horse’s body and come out of the other end. Quickly, Oda would make the chain vanish as he didn’t want to waste time pulling back out. He would stay in his position in the hay as he had yet to be noticed. The horse closest to him had screamed out in pain and fell on its side as it slowly died. The other horse would try to pull the wagon itself, but due to its unbalanced stability. The wagon would abruptly flip as if it had been jutted off course by an unknown force. Maintaining his position, two Ninja would make their way out of the wagon. Hosting Hoshigakure Headbands. Oda wouldn’t do anything as he only observed the two.

They were hurt, but not severely and that meant that Oda had to severely hurt them. A whistle could be heard as another chain made its way through the air. It going so fast that it would pierce one Ninja in the chest and puncture his heart. Oda knew that it was a killing blow. However, he wouldn’t stop the controlling of this chain as he would keep it out. The other Ninja now knew his location and that meant he had to fight him heads up, one on one. Oda would jump into the air as hay flew everywhere. Nine more Chains would be produced from tenketsu all over his body making ten chains in total appear. He would come to land five meters away from the other Ninja who would equip himself with a Kunai. “You Bastard!” Screamed the ninja as he ran towards Oda. Holding the Kunai in the air at an angle as he prepared to deliver a hard blow to the young boy. Though, Oda would only stand his ground as he wouldn’t move a inch. The Kunai would come to impact the blade tip of one of his chains. The weapon of the man not even able to dent or even move the chain itself due to the sheer power of them. Sometimes he hated being a Uzumaki, then it was times like this that he absolutely loved it.

As the blades connected, Oda would retaliate by sending a chain straight through the wrist of the ninja. Completely tearing it from his hand. The blood would splatter on Oda’s face as he would only smirk and begin his onslaught on the ninja. Oda would pull back all of his chains and point them straight at the man and like bullets they would begin their attack. The chains would impact the man’s body in a punching motion as they pierced the man body so much that blood was all over it. The ninja couldn’t really do anything to respond as he force of the chains were also knocking him back as they made contact. For what had been about ten seconds. Oda would see the man fall face first to the ground, dead. He would slowly make his way to the wagon an begin collecting supplies that would most likely last him a month before they rotted away.
