Traveling [OPEN]

After a nice long day of traveling the borderlands, Saruga decided it would be best to sit down and relax. In his signature spot, the tree limbs, he found a nice lengthy area to sit down and peel bark, one of his relaxing pasttimes. Of course, right when he wanted to have a break, somebody intruded the area. He readied his guard to see who it was.

As the man readied his defense it was already too late, the small child had dug into the tree, and was hanging from a branch. Her overly large clothing hanging off her small frame, and her arms effortlessly slinging out due to gravity. The only really noticeable features were her overly large grin, and the strange tattoo on the right side of her neck; which featured two brightly drawn red circles in a perfect offset formation. Her large hooded jacket danging off her small little body while she began to pull herself back up, and off her hanging perch. With a single grunt, she had seated herself back on the branch. Now instead of her arms, her legs laid hanging from the side lines. She let them slip back and forth between staying still, and swaying about.

"Hello," she spoke clearly and in an extremely regal tone, civil, and sweet at the same time but demanded respect all the same. The young girl kept her eyes sharply locked on the man, anyone could tell she was battle hardened or came from a group that proved as much. Her shaggy yellow hair damping over her right eye, and her cheeks as red as a strawberry. Something seemed off about her, but something seemed right at the same time? Weird huh, was all most could think while she raised up her right hand to her lips, and gave off a small little cough.

Saruga didn't notice the small, off-set girl approach until she spoke. It startled him like you'd think he saw a ghost. He turned around immediantly, eyes wide. The first thing he noticed about the girl was the same features he had when Yecae [Saruga's guardian before he was murdered] died. She reminded him so much of himself. "Urm..hello. Aren't you a stealthy one." stated Saruga with a returning civil tone. This is one of the first times Saruga had ever been truly frightened, as if something wasn't right. Another feature Saruga could see in this child was the demented mindset, something they both shared. They had a lot in common. Nevertheless, Saruga backed up a few steps on the thick branch. "You frightened me. Why are you here, young girl?" said him with anxiety. He knew she was up to no good.

The day seemed short, but for other's it was long. Drake walked down the narrow path outside of the village of the leaf. He had joined an organzation, and also was planning on getting something else too. He layed low with his sword to the right of him. He stood tall with a straw hat and a red ribbon around the brim of it. Drake saw that he would have to train to become stronger. Drake didn't want to use his sword, especially when he was on the verge of retreiving a sword, indeed. He stummbled aross the border's near the valley of end. He stopped, there stood a man a bit shooked. There was also, a young girl hanging from ontop of a tree.

Weird...Drake had thought. What was going on? Drake overheard the man saying, 'You frightened me'. How could that young girl startle that guy? But, Drake didn't stay on thought about it. "Hey, how's it going over there?", Drake said from the 8 meter distance apart. Drake began to wave, then putting his hand down he began to wait for a response.

Drake began to think that the man was strong, and he would have to get STRONGER if he were to keep up. But, the man seemed to make no harm at all. Drake stayed low until a sudden movement.

Saruga looked to his left to see a man wearing a large, strange straw hat. He noticed his wave hello and glared at him for maybe 4 seconds. But to remain civil, he stated, "Hello!.. What is your business here?" Because of Saruga's situation with 1 above him, and one to his below left side, he readied himself for attack. Something should happen soon, as both characters seemed rather sketchy. Though he thought he could take the girl, The man seemed alot more advanced than Saruga had seen. The only thing that would save Saruga from a dual flank would be his jutsu techniques. Nonetheless, Saruga thought he could take an attack. Plus, his chance of escape in a dire situation is high. Saruga was ready for attack.

"I'm just hanging around, you know. Wandering about this world around me," she answered the man with truth, and honest response. She didn't life, she didn't fodder. Those were a few of her inner rules, and she would never sway from them no matter what happened. As the new man arrived, she simply thought "The More, The Merrier," she knew that if either decided for a fight though, she had a high chance of survival. She did have a hidden trick up her sleeve, and if worse came to shove. Running was a option, she didn't like combat after all but wouldn't allow harm to come to anyone who didn't deserve it. "Hello there!," she spoke clearly, and with fine tune as the man stepped forward.

Still seated highly on her postured perch, she pulled her right hand from her lips, and brought it up towards her hair as she pushed it out of the way, and let it flop back down after a moment or so. The waggishly blond hair flushing in the wind for a bit. With a sudden twist, she rushed from her throne, and spun around the base of the branch she was on. Releasing her grip, she quickly fluttered upwards, and to the next branch. Doing the same as before, her hands firmly gripped the wooden oak, and she tossed herself up again, and again. Getting a few branches higher before she stopped, and as she had done before. Let herself hang upside from the wooden perch. Her shaggy clothes hanging from her small frame, each movement made perfectly, and without wasted energy.

She kept her grin mostly the entire time, and her eyes truly never left the two people around her. She was cautious about people but not overly paranoid, she just liked to keep track of potential threats but really felt no need to do so with these two, not saying they were weak. They just lacked what she felt as a threatening aura about them.

Saruga watched as the young ninja jumped miraculously up the multiple branches. "These people....I don't sense everything is peaceful here." murmured Saruga, out loud. [A trait he was born with, Saruga had the ability to sense negative energy.] He thought the man below was very unwelcoming to his presence. He didn't feel safe with him around. "Young girl...I would like to spar with you. You seem very confident in your abilities. Not a fight to the death, unless that's how it must be. Please, show me your abilities. Anything you have up your sleeve." She seemed so out of place to Saruga.

He jumped backwards to another branch, and flipped again upwards to a much higher one, to be at eye level with the girl. Saruga voided the man out of his way, unless he wanted to join the fight. However, for the safety of the child and Saruga, he would be forced to use forbidden jutsu against the man. Saruga had an interest in this child. He saw her abilities through her, almost. He knew she had tricks to show him. However, Saruga was confident nothing bad would happen, as he had tricks of his own. He was ready to battle, at her will.

"A spar? You mean a test of abilities through minor conflict, if we must. I see no reason not to partake," she answered the man in return before setting her sights down, it seemed the man would ignore the other for now, and that suited her fine. A real test of combat was focused on two, one on one that was the true test. As easily as she reached the higher branches, she seemingly let go of the top perch, and allowed her body to flutter down the drop towards the ground. As she came close to the ground, she let her body drop back, and she twisted her body so that her feet would make direct contact to the ground before the squatting drop most would take. Her loose clothing smacking down, and back onto her minor framed body. She was on the ground now, and was enjoying the chance to "meet" new people despite the way it was.

"Very well, I am Furawa and you are?," she asked the man as she got ready, twisting her wrist to make a muzzled crackling sound in terms of popping a joint, she wanted to relieve a bit of built up pressure, and did so with her neck, elbows, other wrist, and her shoulders in a few simple, and subtle jerking motions. She stood firmly on the ground, both feet steadily fixed in place and in return she only seemed to part her fingers a bit, and extend her right arm forward, and more leaned towards her knee then the center focus that most took in a combat ready stance. Her other hand was placed back and towards her right in shin, a bit of a odd posture for even an inexperienced young child.

"Hm...," she spoke clearly before making her action known, the unusual stance turned into a sudden rush towards the man. Completely ignoring the launched Kunai, even if it were to hit her skin. It would seemingly just flaunt, and fall to the ground. As she went towards the now moving target, she pressed her right hand against her left wrist, and all you could see was a blush of red fluid filling the air as she seemingly just RIPPED OUT HER BONE?! She had removed her arm at the wrist, and slowly pulled it from her skin. Though she didn't even wince?! What madness was this, still moving towards the lad, she would dart down, and bring up her right knee before leaping into the air, and spinning her form around. With a sudden thrust forward as she landed, she stabbed the bone weapon forward, and then brought down her leg in the same move. If the strike were to miss, the added leg would cut off escape from the left with a swift kick.

The wounds as she moved forward no longer open to view, they had healed up at the moment the bone was removed, what kind of technique was this?! "Keep your mind clear, or you might just find out the strength of this weapon. This is my Kekkai Genkai or my Bloodline trait. I am capable of manipulating my bones to a steel like strength, and then changing the density of anything I make. I am also capable of making more bones, unlike the normal human body. I do not have a simple two hundred or so bones. I have nearly four hundred or even more if I wish!" she warned the man right out, and bluntly. She had no means to hide it, she was proud of her abilities, and their history. Though most didn't know of the Kaguya Clan, hell only a selective few could even recall the name, let alone their ability. This only added to the mystery.
