Giving a silent nod towards his sister when she assigned a full group of Genin to him, Kuhaku allowed his gaze to shift over to the white-haired girl and his own unofficial apprentice Izuru, though he'd never call the kid by his real name; always calling him Chibi instead just in hopes of pissing off the kid one day. Giving a grin towards the boy he walked over to him before setting his hand atop the genins head. Looking over at the white haired girl he spoke in a soft tone, addressing her and the kid next to him. "Meet me at the Dojo, I'd like to do a light spar to get an idea of your combat levels before I decide on what missions we can do." With that said he fell silent before giving Izuru an evil grin. Allowing one of his truth seeking balls to appear near him he molded it into a thin almost invisible belt that he looped down around the kid, tightening it around his midsection before attaching it to his own hand. With that done he lifted his arm up, easily hoisting Izuru off the ground before allowing himself to lift off the ground slowly, using his truth seeking balls as a form of flight without anyone knowing it. With that done they would launch out the window nearby, shooting off towards the Dojo at a rapid speed.
Passives • [BLOODLINE] • A God's Example Any wielder of the Rinnegan may freely summon and manipulate two items. The Guoudama (Truth-seeking Balls), and Nunoboko, a multi-ringed staff, much like that of a buudhist monk. The Rinnegan wielder can manipulate up to six guoudama, and one nunoboko at any point in time. These items are indestructible. Chakra receiver rods may also be freely generated in infinite quantity, to be tied in with a jutsu listed below. • [BLOODLINE] • A God's Demonstration A renowned skill of the Sage of Six Paths was his ability to transcend space and time to communicate with those who they've established links with. Similarly to Hagoromo's communication, the individuals in question will be pulled into a blank, ethereal world, where they may speak to the user of this skill. Any one user of the Rinnegan may maintain bonds with up to four people at once. However, this skill may not be used within five posts of the user initiating combat. Since this skill is used exclusively outside of combat, the user may have all four individuals at once with no cooldown. • [BLOODLINE] • God's All-knowing - Passive This allows Kuhaku to further his bloodline capabilities to not only create unlimited receiver rods and track them actively, but also allows him to hone in on them and use them as a substitute of sorts, allowing him to hear things around them and see what the rod could essentially see if it had eyes. However, the greater the number of rods he tries to track with all the senses the more his brain will get overloaded and hamper his reactions/concentration, and if it reaches a critical point, he will inevitably pass out from exhaustion. The max number of rods he can utilize at full potential is six rods/rod creations. • [BLOODLINE] Opponents in view of the Rinnegan are subject to the most potent scrutiny of all. Chakra points, the flow of their chakra, an in-depth sense of perception capable of predicting how an opponent is going to strike based on the flow of their chakra alone. Opponents with higher chakra levels are much more susceptible to this reading ability. This ability extends to being able to detect movements using displaced chakra in the air. As previously stated, high density of chakra levels in the air can negate this ability rather quickly. This high level of scrutiny also allows Rinnegan wielders to notice the specific chakra natures and attributes inside of an opponent, allowing them to know what elements/bloodlines the opponent has so long as they've seen the chakra before. • [CLASS] No Handseals - Passive Because of the ease of use for elemental jutsu of their element, the do not need hand signs for jutsu of their element. • [CLASS] Sage Classmen gain a +1 in the strength of their chosen Sage element

Giving Harumi a deadpan look out of the corner of his eye, Koshu couldn't help but let out a deep sigh; knowing that she liked to screw with him like that pretty often. He'd swear she was selectively mute but he knew she spoke to him pretty frequently in the academy, she must have just been having a shy day with the kage. When the girl began flying out the window alongside Kat leaving on strings of what he assumed was some sort of webbing Koshu facepalmed himself, annoyed that they'd both left without helping bring him along, meaning he'd have to walk there himself. Grumbling softly to himself he watched the other Jounin and a genin fly out the open window before raising an eyebrow. Walking forward he hopped up on the windowsill before casually stepping out of the window. He began to plummet down to the earth below, his landing denting the ground before he dissapeared in a blur of speed, launching upwards to one of the rooftops before he began hopping along them towards the training ground. ""
Passives • [BLOODLINE] Sharingan Perception While the Sharingan is active, the wielder is able to see even the slightest movements made by their targets, making them near impossible to trick with a sleight of hands move; this includes being able to see chakra, even underground. • [BLOODLINE] Jutsu Mimicry While in battle, the Sharingan can let the wielder mimic a jutsu that was used in the previous post as long as the wielder may use that jutsu for an additional 50% chakra. The user may mimic a jutsu that is not of an element they possess, as long as it is below their rank, for double the chakra cost. Any jutsu mimicked lose 1 rank in power • [BLOODLINE] Jutsu Copying While observing a jutsu be performed, the Sharingan may copy the chakra patterns used to perform the jutsu, allowing the wielder to gain instant knowledge of how to perform the jutsu. In order to learn the jutsu, it must be a jutsu the user is normally able to perform, meaning only jutsu of their element, clan, or bloodline. Uchiha are able to copy one element outside of the ones they know, but it must be within the five main elements. • [BLOODLINE] Genjutsu Identification Due to the ability to see one's chakra flow, the wielder of the sharingan may see when one's flow is being disrupted by a genjutsu or tell when they themselves are under one, allowing them to break out of them easier. • [BLOODLINE] Class Upgrades (Natural Users Only -- No Implants - Can only be received once, no getting upgrades from multiple bloodlines): Since the Uchiha are considered geniuses at most everything they do, it's inferred that they're slightly better at what they do than those around them. As such, depending on the class of the Uchiha member, they gain a specific bonus for their character: • [BLOODLINE] Weapon Master/Tajiutsu/Samurai And the ability to create a custom weapon/tai style emphasized around the use of the Sharingan. May be slightly stronger than your typical physical style. • [BLOODLINE] Ridiculously hard bones, and therefore almost invincible bodies at Sannin/Kage • [BLOODLINE] +1/+1, physicality allows them to use one style for free. • [BLOODLINE] Your bones aren't the only part of your body that are resistant. Your skin and flesh are both highly invulnerable to a certain level of physical and elemental damage. Your skin feels and acts like stone; it's like a hard outer shell that defends you. You can have a sword lodged into your throat but from the average ninja, it'd take many seconds to pierce all the way through. You're a moving tank. When you've mastered Senpou Kaguya, your skin becomes as tough as corundum. • [BLOODLINE] You have enhanced perception, and for good reason. Kaguya train their whole lives to dominate melee, so they are better than most others at predicting attacks and perceiving the enemy's movements. Dance of the Larch Passive • [BLOODLINE] Karamatsu no Mai is a form of Taijutsu developed by Kimimaro to take advantage of his cursed seal and bloodline ability. It is the third of five dance forms. After activating the level one cursed seal form, Kimimaro will begin to extend multiple bones from his body. Both from his rib cage and his radius and ulna. Because they are hard as steel (and can be as hard as hyper diamond at Kage), these bones can act as a strong defensive mechanism against incoming strikes. Due to this they will also serve as an offensive attack to allow Kimimaro to move with little effort to impale his opponent. • [CLASS] Physical Toughness -- The Taijutsu class not only teaches you to ignore pain, but can also make you immune to damage from weak attacks, based on your rank, making you almost immune to damage 2 ranks below you:
Chuunin taijutsu classmen are immune to academy jutsu damage Jounin taijutsu classmen are immune to genin jutsu damage Sannin taijutsu classmen are immune to chuunin jutsu damage Kage taijutsu classmen are immune to jounin jutsu damage
Anything lower than that rank also applies.

[Otogakure] - [Genin] - [Hyuuga] - [Magician]
Little Izuru got caught in the web spun by his sensei Kuhaku and was lifted into the air. Normally he would try to resist because he himself could fly of his own accord but this time, he decided to save his energy for what was to come. However, that plan almost went out of the window as quickly as it was thought up, no pun intended, because as Kuhaku was pulling his student along, he apparently didn't calculate for the fact that the window next to the one he passed through was still closed, which resulted in Izuru being slammed into the glass. His hands would shoot up to his face to try and grasp at the pain to pull it away or for whatever reason people instantly grab places that hurt like it wouldn't make it hurt worse with more pressure and before the pain could leave, he was pulled back into the same pane of glass once more. And then again, and again, and finally Kuhaku had the common sense to turn around to see what was happening before clearing his throat in an awkward manner before pulling Izuru to the side and out the correct window, where they then proceeded to their destination without any further complications.

»Chakra: 130/130 »Speed: 7 »Strength: 8 »Passives: • 5 Chakra Regen per post • May use one Taijutsu style for free and gain stats, may learn one additional taijutsu style. • Direct hits on the opponent take away [10] chakra points. When hitting an opponent with Hyuuga techniques, 10% of the usual chakra drain is applied. For example, using the complete 8 Trigrams 64 Palms on an opponent will take 64 points as opposed to 640. • Expel Hyuuga members have an intense control over their own chakra system, allowing them to expel chakra from any point on their body with a simple thought. This can be enough to break most ropes, and anyone holding onto them may also have the chakra points in their hands closed when the chakra is expelled. • Oni's Blood The Magician's connection to natural energy gives them the ability to detect movements in the flow of natural energy around them. This gives the Magicians a very high level of perception, allowing them to recognize incoming masses of chakra, as well as detecting the flow of energy within the bodies of their opponents to gain insight on their next moves. Similarly to the Rinnegan, this means that enemies with higher chakra signatures are more easily combated, as the movements in their chakra are much easier to detect. This also means that enemies with higher chakra levels can be sensed from further away. • Can I Borrow an Assistant from the Crowd? Along with their ability to sense chakra, the natural energy connection allows the Magicians to have a personalized companion, typically an animal. This animal must be applied for within the pet applications--or right away with the bloodline application--and is subject to review from the regular summon/pet approver. If the Magician is willing to part with their ability to summon other hierarchies on the traditional summoning list, they may choose to have one much more powerful familiar, complete with a sage mode of its own. The sage mode--however--must at least mirror the current standard of sage modes in the guild, no stronger. Whereas the single summoned familiar may be more powerful than a boss summon, as it is the only summonable companion they get. if their outside chakra source is destroyed, so is their connection to this companion. Like the chakra source, this disconnection is only temporary, and can be repaired outside of battle.

Beauty and grace, these are typically terms not associated with ninja. Yet as Ayura glided to the doors of the office where his Kage resided he felt....liberated. Hana was like an adorable little sister to him, a friend closer than time itself. All roses had their thorns though, and hers was especially prominent. With the intent of talking on the forefront of his mind, the blond male found himself caught up in lighthearted small talk with many of the staff within the office. It wasn't surprising that quite a few of them were probably wanting an eyeful but he didn't mind. A musical tone floated from his lips as he laughed at jokes and flashed them brilliant white smiles before dismissing himself with a small bow. Being polite always had it's advantages, a fact he learned from his parents who resided within the upper class of the Rice Country. Careful steps followed by a light knocking on the door would hope to announce whomever was inside of his presence. Sweeping into a fluid bow, Ayura brought his head down as he entered. "My Lady, it's my pleasure to se-" Upon lifting his eyes, the discovery was made that the Otokage was not currently in her office. Surprising that none of the workers outside informed me of that. Standing back up, his eyes narrowed briefly before recomposing themselves into a warm and welcoming smile at the anbu that was currently standing before him. Wordlessly the figure handed him two headbands. Momentary confusion was clarified when he realized the other must be meant for Hana. Politely, Ayura excused himself with his new headband in tow. Maybe if he was luck he would even run into the kage on his way out.

Kat swung through the village on webbing as she had on her way out of her office, except this time she landed with a thump ahead of the new genin who had come by. Her memory served her well, as the boy's dossier flickered into the forfront of her mind. "Ah, Ayura. I see you just missed me. Probably for the best, I have to set up for the shogun to be arriving to grill me on how I run my military. Come by in a little while and we can chat then. Perhaps you can make friends at the dojo. My brother and his students are there." She would tap his shoulder before moving into the office, quickly ascending the stairs into her office space without a word to her many underlings that she passed. With a sigh, she closed her door and strings of chakra scattered outward and attached themselves to the many things scattered about the room. The last thing she wanted to hear was Eiji's mouth bitching her out so she tidied up the office efficiently, sweeping dusting and general straightening before he arrived and then digging around inside of a closet near the door that was almost as large as the office itself. She pulled the chassis and arms of another puppet and sat the pieces on her desk along with various tools, careful of a letter that had been left for her. Deft fingers removed the message, unrolling and reading it while beginning to get to the business of working on Cater's improved body. One hand twisted a screwdriver while the other held the letter and her face turned into a scowl. The pharmaceutical industry was really irking her nerves as of late...

Matters of state, how exciting.Ayura internalized the thought as he dipped his head towards his kage. "Very well, I'll take you up on that off and go to see your brother. Have fun with the Shogun, he's....knowledgeable of his capabilities I've hear." The boy let out a bit of laughter as he had heard quite a bit about the shogun. Referring to him this way was more suiting to his position and it wouldn't go to undermine somebody of such social stigma. With a turn of his body, Ayura headed for the Dojo.
Eiji would step into the room after a brisk knock on the door, looking straight at Kat with what appeared to be indifferent eyes. "What was that?" It was a question she would likely know the follow-up to, but Eiji was determined to make this a full statement. the way she'd handled that situation would pass in a softer village, but the Shogun of the Rice Country was adamant on making sure that his soldiers were the best, most disciplined forces in the shinobi world. Slacking off in these sorts of affairs would not do. "So after you left, one of the boys decided to go so far as to say that they were actually pressuring you. What this tells me, Kat, is that you need to have a stricter, more dominant control over the military in this village. I understand that you don't want to hurt them, but if you fail to demonstrate your power in the proper way, the citizens and shinobi of this village won't respect you." This was a side of Eiji that only those close with him ever saw; the fact that under that brash, rude exterior, there was a teacher, a leader, and an educator. The two had shared this professional relationship for quite some time, since before she'd actually taken the village from the previous Otokage. He'd been grooming her to take the position for quite some time, and it pleased him that she was somewhat starting to come into her own.
Though he'd hoped that this fresh batch of Genin would have been her final opportunity to show him that she knew completely what she was doing, it appeared that there would need to be at least one more round of his counsel in getting this village to where it needed to be. "I'm still of the firm belief that you should have flexed your muscles at them for at least a little bit in that bout. Even if it were just for a few moments. If your soldiers don't ever become grounded in the reality that--ultimately--you are and will continue to be far stronger than them, your commands will never be absolute. There will always be room for them to question you, always room for them to doubt you and your abilities. The only way to prove this accusation false is to put an unwavering idea in their heads. And to be honest, you failed to do that today. The fact that they were able to put up so much of a resistance against you tells me that you need to be trying harder." To be frank, he delivered these words with a tone dissimilar to the one he was using at the training grounds. If anything, it sounded more like an employer giving their employee a performance review. It was succinct, professional, and to-the-point. After he finished speaking, he would wait patiently for Kat's response.

The knock had barely intruded upon the woman's focus, and she returned the indifferent face with one of intrigue, but her eyes quickly returned to the work at hand. By now, she'd scattered a few more papers on the desk. He asked his initial question, but Kat knew he had more to say than just that so she let him continue with her teeth gritting and deft fingers flipped a few papers around. He had his beliefs about how she was going about training her students, but he hadn't been in the office for the discussion she'd shared with the two first members of Crazy Noisy Bizzare Town so he was unawares as to what her actual method was, nor her theory about teaching. He also had cut the battle short before she actually proactively did anything, which was another reason his accusation had been odd and misplaced. When he finished speaking, a trio of ledgers opened on her desk and she began to work again. Kat stood and began fastening them in before speaking to him. "Quick to criticize as always Eiji-sensei," she said almost teasingly while she worked. "And uncharacteristically wrong in what you gathered from the situation. You know better than to think I don't want to hurt them, it's almost insulting for you to insinuate in fact. I had already warned two of them that they were in for a lot of pain taking me on as a teacher. Had them sign a contract not to give up, as is the way of these lands in fact. Legally binding papers are our nindo nowadays. Well, they actually wrote their names in my blank scrolls but they aren't any wiser. Regardless, I had only seen their dossier's. I needed to know just how apt the trio were, and what better way than to let them think they were gaining ground. I wasn't being pushed back, any ground you observed me "losing" I was giving them. The genin were in for a rude awakening, and in fact your interruption and assertion that they were doing good at all would be the only reason they develop a thought line such as you're describing." She would take her hands off of Cater and chakra strings, just a few, attached to it. The wings fluttered to life, sending papers flying about until her free hand produced strings to hold them down on the table, back in order. The puppet lifted off of the ground, and she seemed content, allowing it to land upright, and already assembled limbs to be retrieved on yet more chakra strings. "Rest assured, barring more needless interruptions of my process, the lower ranks will be made aware where they stand. Quite like Big Pharma out there will be. Some of the CEO's in the village are overstepping their boundaries, in more important news. Pushing out faulty product and lobbying for me to allow them to drive the prices on medication they already have the market cornered on just to fill their pockets while the less fortunate are left to rot in the wake of their needed medicines being too expensive for them to afford. Kuhaku wants to kill them, unsurprisingly, Sumiko thinks I should go scare them, and keep pressure on them for a few months to make them stay in line. I'm at the point where I'd like to see the head of the company fired along with anyone else who stands to gain. You think my students need a nuclear response to stay in line, so I imagine you'd like it if I sent Ku to wipe them out of existence," she said with her usual tone, one of someone who's mind is in a million places. The whole time she was affixing numbers and speaking her eyes were on the ledger detailing the Pharmacy Council's spending, aid, breaks and less legal affairs Kat herself allowed to continue. Eiji would be used to the multitasking prowess of one of the strongest business minds he'd ever seen long ago when Kat and Ku first arrived in the village. She had refuted what he said and assured him she got the point while also telling him it was partially his fault they didn't get dunked on. The only thing that was hard for her was that she didn't exactly have a cure for her own poisons... yet, so there was some things she couldn't fix on her own if she did to them. Even so, Koshu was seconds away from getting a faceful of toxic gas and the disk of venom being flung towards the other two was both an out from the attacks coming her way, and a way to pressure them away from him while he and Bebe dealt with an increasingly more dangerous situation. Everything was to be taken in levels of escalation. This was her model dealing with threats in the country as well. Break her laws, get dealt with accordingly. Continue to offend, get dealt with more severely, perhaps disproportionately. "Also, you don't visit me just to grill me much anymore, Eiji. It hasn't been so long that you need to come check on affairs, so I can only assume something else brought you here. My feminine intuition is telling me the proximity of chuunin exams? Trouble with cloud? Getting married finally?" In her voice was no indication as to weather or not she was joking about that last thing, and her three way focus prevented her face from ever being readable in the first place, so she wondered both how he'd respond and why he was really here.
Her rebuttal was swifter than usual. Fortunately, it seemed that her occasional run-ins with the Shogun, as well as having to deal with these cheeky Genin, had shaped her into someone more capable of holding her own in debates than before. "You should have done so much earlier, especially if they'd signed such a transparent agreement. One of them even had the tenacity to lip off at me after you left. Can you believe that?" Eiji stepped over to the window, hands behind his back in that official-in-thought sort of way. "It seems I do need to spend some more time in this village. Moreso than I would have imagined before." He turned back to Kat, this being one of the rare few times the blood-crimson hue of the sharingan faded from his eyes, revealing his boring, black pupils. The pharma situation she referenced was something he'd also been doing his homework on, and a bit of a grin played on his face. It was an unfortunate truth, but he'd also been slacking on his own supervisions of the pharmaceuticals recently. More specifically, the shipments that had been entering and exiting the country. The trading taxes and overall prices of the products had been soaring recently, giving Eiji an appreciated increase in revenues, but at what cost?
"Deal with the pharmacies in whatever ways you feel necessary. If it escalates to the point of violence, I'll just do what I did last time to bring the prices down. Once the heads of pharmacy see my face in the village again, I'm sure they'll settle down a little bit." Of course...he did personally, publicly behead the CEO of one of the most successful companies last time...that tends to send a message. He'd even used the royal blade of the shogunate for extra special impact. The damn thing hadn't been used in so long, he'd had it sharpened prior just to make sure it still worked. "Speaking of them seeing my face around here...I've decided that I'll be staying in Otogakure for a while. The state of this village seems to require my attention, and furthermore..." This was a point Eiji had been meaning to bring up for a while, something that had bugged him ever since he'd set foot in the training grounds. "It's been a long time since you personally took a squad out for their introductory grooming. Are you running short on teaching staff?" A statement that seemed to pierce straight to the heart of the problem. And ultimately, a sort of hint, a clue from Eiji that she'd recognize straightaway.
A backhanded statement that he would be here for a while. "And speaking of teaching, I don't think you've brought this group on the mountain survival exercise yet. I believe that's a perfect opportunity for me to rebuke the mistakes that were made today. I'll accompany you on this exercise." That was--of course--not a request, or even a question. Eiji would be tagging along this time, whether Kat liked it or not. "I believe we should be starting this exercise within the next couple days. If you could, round up all the village Genin, as well as their teachers in front of the office. Make the announcement that the exercise will begin in two days time, at which point, they must report to Mount Daimyaku, in zones two and three. I'll be waiting there, so don't take too long." Eiji would then turn to leave the office, waiting just a moment for any final questions before he made a closing statement of his own. Vanishing in a gust of wind as he spoke,
"And remember. No one is to enter zone one under any circumstances. Even if it means they have to die otherwise."

Sumiko pushed open the door after she sensed that Eiji had vanished from sight. It wouldn't have been to smart to enter the office any earlier. The Shogun was a rather.... rather big pain to put it bluntly and she actively avoided him anytime he was in a ten mile radius of her. In fact, she had been lucky enough to only run into a handful of times and even then, flew well under the radar if at all possible. Making her way into the office, Sumiko plopped down into her customary chair, propping her feet back onto the table, which by now had a small, well worn rut where her feet were naturally cradled. "I feel it worth reporting that there was a Kumogakure Jounin at the Rupture Bar. They said that Enma-san had sent them here to spy but I watched them from the moment they entered the village. We shared a few drinks, and I sent them on their way. Just felt that I should give you a heads up."
Katherine marked away at the ledger as the Shogun continued to speak. His assertion that she should have went at his pace rather than her own went largely ignored, mostly because she'd already said what she had to say about him minding his own business. If he wanted to take a group of students he could do so and teach the how he'd like. When he asked if she could believe that someone had lipped off to him, Katherine scoffed a little and spoke plainly to him. "I can believe it. You've been largely absent from the village as of late. Noticeably. I assume you punished him for speaking out at you. Would only seem right considering your stance on me beating the skill into them," she said. He wanted to stay here more often? Kat looked at him over her shoulder when he said to deal with the medical corps how she would. Perhaps she'd let Ku loose on them and supervise to make sure they didn't actually die. Or maybe she would, either way it didn't work. In truth, these were extra affairs she took on of her own volition. There was a shogun of the land for a reason, the shadow was merely to lead the army. But Kat had grown to be a face of the village as well, weather she cared for that or not. Hime coming home to stay was sort of like the owner of a restaurant being present. Whatever sting his statement was supposed to hold didn't bother Kat in the slightest.
To the point of his question about her taking students she dug into her desk and removed a clipboard. "Being short on teachers isn't necessarily the issue. More to the root of the problem is that there are far more capable genin in this crop than there have been in generations, so the older generations need a bit of aid. This abnormal flux of hot blooded genin is largely due to my teaching reform, and due to the general success of the village. That, and I liked those three. They show the same potential the village saw in Sumiko Ku and I. I'll roud up the kids and the teachers and see you there. Have a nice day Eiji-sensei." He left, and Sumiko strolled in. Kat eyed her body language, freezing busy hands just long enough to try and glean anything she could from the woman. As per the norm she was met with a stoic look on her face. Kat went back to work as Sumiko sat and spoke to her of a spy. She sat back, eyes rolling over the desk and nostrils flaring. Her former squadmate would recognize the signs of irritation immediately.
"Enma has grown foolish and brash," she'd say. "Thank you for handling this without bloodshed. I can always count on you to keep a level head, even if only for lack of drive to do things. Ku would probably have walked him home and caused a diplomatic incident. Speaking of Diplomats, I know you sensed Eiji was here... and strategically avoided seeing him. He would like to perform the old mountain exercise. Doesn't like how I train my students so he wants to do things for himself. He even asserted that the village is in a bad state so he's going to be staying here a while. Looks like you avoiding him is gonna get even harder now." Kat mused moving to sit in the windowsil. "He requests the teachers meet with him alongside their students on Daimyaku in a couple of days. Stay out of zone one, even if you'll be dying otherwise. Otherwise meet in stages two and three. That was the directive. As for our little spy problem... I think I'll be going to Cloud soon. Seems Enma needs to know who he's ******** with, and I'd like to do a little subterfuge of my own. Not a soul is a better assassin than I, so if it's Spy vs. Spy he's already at a stark disadvantage." With that he would stand and walk towards the door, right by Sumiko. "Feel free to stay. I finished updating the ledger and counting. You can go over it if you want... or pretend to sleep." A black moon blotted out one eye, and a white star the other, before Kat was gone moving at high speeds only a chakra sensor could follow.
