Deep within the sage lands lies a vast forest of mighty redwoods, a towering sea of trees spanning hundreds of miles over, seemingly, never-ending lowlands. Those who venture into the wooded maze will quickly find themselves without a navigational reference, made worse by an unnatural fog that is unyielding to even the fiercest winds. Should any traveler be lucky enough not to be lost in the maze of trunks and fog, they will stumble upon a mound resting in the center of a small clearing. At the top of the mound is the burrow that the Rabbits make their home.
The Rabbits have ruled the forests for time immemorial. Though the members of the Rabbit Clan are a lively and energetic bunch, they are very cautious and initially distrusting of strangers and thus have only been encountered a few times in history. Should one win the trust of their elders, they will be welcomed into a family with ties that run deeper than any tunnel could and several powerful new allies.
Way of the Rabbit: Quite literally always quick on their feet, the rabbit sages boast an artful speed that affords them the ability to escape from almost any prey, and even turn the tables in some cases! When entering sage mode, and without paying an activation to do so, the user may pay a ranked amount in half nature and half regular chakra. At whatever rank this is done, the user is considered to be moving at that rank at all times for as long as they are in sage mode. Jutsu effects that would slow, halt, or otherwise impede their movement instead are unable able to do so.

Posted: Sun Aug 26, 2018 6:07 pm
▰▰▰ Dade Rank D | Chakra: 300 | Stamina: 300 Str: 0 | Spd: 2 | Agi: 2 | End: 0 Dade is a petite, brown bunny no bigger than your average pet. He is spry and adventurous at heart, but overly cautious [as most rabbits are] in practice. While technically not old enough to leave the burrow, Dade has made a name for himself for being a very observant soul known very well for his sense of hearing which is incredible even by rabbit standards.
Ability:Sonic Ears While using sensory techniques, Dade can quadruple the range and even specifics such as abilities active/being active similar to the Scholar's sensory trait. However, this increased range comes at a cost. Dade is unable to detect chakra outside of the initial range band and is only able to discern numbers via sound.
▰ Echo | Rank D | Cost: Complex Activation of this Jutsu lets the user locate the relative location of anything in the vicinity by listening to the echoes of a sharp sound, such as blades clashing, a rock skipping, etc. The technique is activated by some form of sound caused by the user which travels out in a 1km diameter. It effectively works like echolocation, giving the user a display of the path in which the sound travels for one [ 1 ] full post. The visual can be maintained at an upkeep of the original cost per post, as well as a constant sound, such as music. Only the user can see the visual path.
▰ You Hear That? | Rank D | Cost: Chakra Through use of this technique, Dade is able to impose the visuals gained through [Echo] onto his summoner, allowing them to directly gain the technique's effects. This technique has a range of 500 meters.
▰ Burrow | Rank C | Cost: Stamina The ability to stay hidden makes for a good spy. Using this technique, Dade is able to quickly burrow beneath ground, hiding his position and giving the appearance of a normal rabbit's burrow. Sensory techniques that are casted from a sensory-type Scholar are unable to pick up Dade's chakra signature while hiding with this technique.
▰▰▰ Flopsy Rank C | Chakra: 500 | Stamina: 500 Str: 4 | Spd: 2 (4) | Agi: 0 | End: 0 Flopsy is a rabbit who is very proud of her speed. Rabbits are fast, but Flopsy is the definition of fast. She stands at an impressive three feet tall, is covered in a light grey pelt, and is clad in clothing that clings tight to her frame to reduce any drag. Flopsy prefers to showcase her speed while fighting, using it to leave behind visible blurs that confuse the opponent as she closes in to deliver a series of blindingly fast kicks.
Ability:Blink Strikes Flopsy is a speedy fighter who makes use of her large feet to spring around the battlefield. This ability is passed on to the summoner, giving them both a [ 2 ] increase to their speed stat.
▰ Spring Strike | Rank C | Cost: Complex Augment Using her massive, powerful legs to propel them forward, Flopsy delivers a blinding strike to her opponent. This technique adds a [ 2 ] stat boost to the speed of any one technique it is augmenting.
▰ Spring-Heeled Slam | Rank C | Cost: Stamina After jumping into the air, Flopsy delivers a powerful downward kick into her opponent, bouncing off of them and landing once more in a two-fold combo that leaves the target dazed on impact, causing their two vertigo.
▰ Radial Split | Rank E-B | Cost: Complex As soon as Flopsy begins moving, she creates a solid after-image that mimics her movement in a different direction. To the naked eye of a Shinobi of equal or lesser rank, it is nearly impossible to tell which one is the user. Creates one after-image per rank.
▰▰▰ Mopsy Rank B | Chakra: 800 | Stamina: 800 Str: 4 | Spd: 4 | Agi: 4 | End: 0 Mopsy is a proud warrior and probably the best fighter the Rabbit Clans have to offer, though his status as a great combatant has sort of gone to his head. Overly bombastic and loud, Mopsy declares his challenges to any and all he comes across. During the heat of battle, the proud hare has a habbit of declaring his attacks through long and overly dramatic names. Mopsy might be an obnoxious fighter, but he is not stupid; his usual strategy involves setting up combo attacks through the use of shadow clones. Standing a whopping six feet tall, Mopsy is covered in dark brown fur with a tan underbelly, and is clad in not but a flowing, red scarf.
Ability:Never Alone Mopsy receives an additional activation each post. This activation may only be used for the creation of shadow clones.
▰ Kage Bunshin no Jutsu [ Shadow Clone Technique ] | Rank B | Cost: Chakra Creates a solid clone which is able to interact with the environment and perform any technique the user knows. The strength of each clone is dependent on the amount of chakra put into each clone. A clone can have anywhere from [ 1 ] chakra to all but [ 1 ] chakra of the user's pool. The same goes for stamina. The user must retain at least [ 1 ] of each pool or they will lose consciousness. Each clone takes [ 15 ] chakra to create, and up to three [ 3 ] clones can be made per activation. Shadow clones cannot be told apart by doujutsu. The clone disperses if it receives a solid hit ( C-rank or higher ), or runs out of chakra or stamina. When a clone is dispersed, any knowledge it gained while active is transferred to the original only, no other clones, and any remaining chakra and stamina is returned to the user.
▰ Multiplying Like Rabbits Strike!!! | Rank B | Cost: Complex Mopsy sends forth one of his clones and, after a short string of hand seals, causes the clone to burst into a cloud of up to five [ 5 ] angry, little bunnies. These smaller bunnies not only cloud the target's vision, but each will try to deliver a C-ranked kick. After their kicks are delivered [ or blocked/evaded ] these little bunnies will disappear.
▰ Who Wants a Carrot Where the Sun Dont Shine Kick!!! | Rank C-A | Cost: Complex A devastating two-pronged attack that utilizes all of Mopsy's clones. The first clone swoops in from the front, delivering a powerful upward kick. Should this kick land, the target will be thrown upwards into the air. Once the target is airborne, Mopsy drops from the sky, driving his heel into the stomach [ or back ] of their target, throwing them to the ground. By raising this technique to at least B-rank, Mopsy may implement their second clone to stop the descending target with a third and final upward kick.
▰▰▰ Dot Rank A | Chakra: 500 | Stamina: 1300 Str: 6 | Spd: 2 | Agi: 0 | End: 6 ( 8 ) Large and almost in charge, Dot is the end all and be all when it comes to defense. Standing a whopping forty feet tall, Dot uses her massive size to intimidate foes and keep the younger rabbits in line. Her grey coat is quite thick and covered in brown spots and her head is capped with two extremely large ears, even by rabbits standards. Though not one to start fights, Dot will not hesitate to throw her weight around to crush any and all opposition.
Ability:Shield-Wall Dot uses her massive ears as a two-tiered shield. This, along with her natural bulk, makes for one sturdy opponent. Because of Dot's naturally defensive stature, she receives a [ 2 ] point bonus to her endurance, as well as a stat cap increase of 8 for her endurance.
▰ Big, Strong... Ears | Rank A | Cost: Stamina Using her prehensile ears, Dot is able to shield her summoner at a moments notice. This technique utilizes the special properties of Dot's ears to negate all stat benefits of any physical attack that strikes the makeshift shield.
▰ Bop'em on the Head | Rank A | Cost: Complex A simple attack in concept, but devastating in practice. Dot raises both of her massive ears into the air, and drives them downward onto the target. After the initial impact, this technique causes the ground to ripple under the force of the impact, throwing anyone in a 30ft radius of the impact site off their feet and knocking them prone. In order to stand after being prone requires an additional activation be spent righting oneself.
▰ Big Bunny Fu Fu | Rank S | Cost: Stamina My remaining stationary and sinking her ears into the ground, Dot makes a nearly impenetrable bulwark against oncoming attacks. This technique Raises Dot's endurance to unimaginable heights with a [ 6 ] point boost that temporarily raises her endurance stat cap to ten for this single move, allowing her to weather even the fiercest of storms. Keep in mind, Dot still does take the attack, so any secondary effects or damage still apply. This technique takes all of her activations.
▰▰▰ Gran-Gran Rank S | Chakra: 1200 | Stamina: 1200 Str: 0 | Spd: 4 | Agi: 4 | End: 0 What do you mean she's not your grandmother... Gran-Gran is everyone's grandmother and she wont let you forget it. Once you are initiated as a member of the Rabbit Clan, you will be under the eternal care of this sweet, little old lady. Unlike most of the other prominent rabbits, or summoning heads for that matter, Gran-Gran sits at a whopping two feet tall and is covered in a black coat peppered with grey from age. Dont let her size fool you however; Gran-Gran is a font of great power that she is more than willing to share with you.
Ability:Pass It On Gran-Gran is a small, ancient rabbit not suited for combat. Despite this, she throws herself into the frey, assisting her summoner as a sort of health pack or battery. Upon summoning, Gran-Gran will attach herself to the back of her summoner and allow them to freely draw from her reserves. The summoner may pull an amount of either chakra or stamina equal to their body rank from Gran's pools once per post. The pair must remain in contact for this ability to work.
▰ Let Me Help You With That | Rank A | Cost: Chakra Through use of this technique, Gran-Gran allows her summoner to korabo any two of their techniques in one activation.
▰ You Look Tired Dear | Rank S+ | Cost: --- By not using any of her activations in a post, Gran-Gran is able to instead meditate in order to regain chakra. The amount that she regains is equal to one letter rank ( starting at E ) per activation spent this way. ( i.e. three activations on your first post creates a C-rank amount of chakra, which you may then add to her pools, or save it and start at C next post for a total of an S-ranked regained ).
"Temper temper. Hammer it home." "Temper temper. Hammer it home."
Many Ninja when they first learn to move quickly, come to enjoy the rush of wind around their face: Exhilarating. Not today, and not this way, for Koutetsu as he found the rush of wind to be caused by fallling out of the Kami damned sky. "Ahh!" he screamed before getting a hold of himself. Re-orientating himself so that he could see the ground approaching, Koutetsu saw a Forest as far as the eye could see. Okay. Calm Down. Use the chakra platforms to slow descent til you reach the tree line and then hop on down on the branches. As he fell, A platform appeared underneath him and he jumped off it briefly. Again and Again it was repeated til at last he landed on a tree branch.
Making his way down the tree branches was a bit more difficult. Until Koutetsu remembered When Chie-sensei was teaching Him, Wren, and Sumiko the basic Jutsu. He may have gotten caught up in accidentally breaking a desk at the time, but in hindsight She had lectured on the tree-walking exercise. Channeling chakra to his feet, Koutetsu made sure he stuck fast to the branch and that his control was on point before walking his way down the trunk. Koutetsu regained his bearings once on the forest floor. "This fog is thicker than some smoke. I'll need to be careful. Koutetsu reached into his bag and pulled out a compass, but upon looking at it, it spun in circles rapidly. "That's not good," He muttered as he stuffed it back into his Bag. Picking a direction, Koutetsu set off.
For hours, he traveled through the misty, tulgey wood. Knowing he could not return the way he came, he continued to explore and examine the plant life around him. The basic terrain survival training they had at the academy helped him identify a few edible plants. Taking a break, he stood in uffish thought, his back resting against one of the near infinite redwoods. Way to go, Koutetsu. Didn't think all the way through on this one. No guaranteed return plan, nothing. Just jumped at the thought and now look where you are: lost in the- His eyes caught on something on the tree opposite to him. A chunk of bark was missing. Odd. I haven't seen any sign of animals in the entire time I have been here. But that, that appears to be a mark made by something large. Moving closer to examine it, he contemplated the force and direction it took to impact it. "Something leapt from this tree to the next."
Koutetsu followed the tracks scratched into the trees, til at last he arrived in a clearing. Dominating this clearing was a rather large mound, as if the earth had been cored out. Cored being the operating term, as he climbed to the top and found a massive hole. Suddenly he heard a sound. Looking up, he saw a small white Rabbit with red fur around its sides and mouth. It, upon noticing Koutetsu, hopped down into the chasm. "Rabbit warren." he said, as he realized what was likely down at the bottom. "It's a Burrow. Judging by the size, I imagine there are far larger ones." Taking a deep breath, Koutetsu Formed a Steel rod and anchored it into the hardest ground he could find. Creating a Long steel cable, He bonded it to the anchor and pulled tight. Shaking his head at the recklessness of what he was doing, he thought to himself, Down into the rabbit hole I go.
Descending into the pit, he came to the bottom after repelling for over an hour. Leaving the Cable hanging, Koutetsu saw three tunnels branching off, but noticed in the far right that white (and red) rabbit was still there, but now joined by a Brown bunny. As they hopped off, Koutetsu followed. Hop, Stop, Hop, Stop. They continued in that manner as they went deeper and deeper into the earth. Eventually, Koutetsu realized this wasn't working and when they came to a stop once more. He knelt down and slid his bag off his shoulders. He did so slowly as the Rabbits eyed him warily. As he reached into his bag, The white one hopped off, but the brown one remained watching. Pulling out a ration bar, he unwrapped it and placed it just within reach. They sat there for about ten minutes before the brown bunny hopped forward a step. Koutetsu remained still, as the Bunny made it to the ration bar. While Koutetsu could have lunged and tried to catch it, he thought discretion to be the better part of valor and let the bunny Hop back out of reach with the meal. Koutetsu remained quiet and the silence remained undisturbed til a voice broke through.
"Hiya, I'm Dade. Thanks for the food. Whatcha doing down here?" Koutetsu blinked before responding to the bunny, "An acquaintance and I had differences in opinion on the meaning of power. I made a bit of a rash decision, to show how strength isn't limited to power but also by character. and now I'm here in the hopes of making a summoning contract." Dade tilted his head a little bit as if noticing something before replying,"Well, you seem nice enough. So I'll vouch for you.. But you may want to hop out of the way now." Koutetsu had a scant few seconds to register the bounding sounds from behind, as he hopped away from his pack as a light grey blur invaded his prior location.
"Hey.Hey.Hey.Hey.Dade!Dade!I'vecometorescueyoufromtheintruder!" Koutetsu could make out a Rabbit with a beautfiul grey pelt, seemingly vibrating in place, its whiskers twitching all over the place as it glared at him. "No need, Flopsy. He seems cool enough and he gave me food. He wants to be our summoner." Dade spoke on his behalf, as Koutetsu kept his eye on the new arrival. "Ooh.Ooh.Hewantstobeasummoner?Ishefast?I'mfasterIbetcha!Wantobesummoner?Tryandkeepup!" Flopsy Leapt forward coming downwards with a kick. Flopsy was fast, but thanks to his training under Karuto-Sensei, so was Koutetsu. Koutetsu leapt forward and met Flopsy's kick with a flying kick of his own. As they bounced back from each other. Flopsy Eyed him, "Yeah.Yeah.Hefast.Hecool.Let'stakehimtoMopsysohecanbemopped." Koutetsu bowed towards the Flopsy and Dade, then followed them as they sprung down a different tunnel.
Entering into a large cavernous room, He found a Brown and Tan hare with a long red scarf billowing in the wind, wherever the wind came from. Dade and Flopsy Introduced him, "Hey.Hey.Mopsy!Dadefoundawannabesummoner.Hefast.Hecool.Wanttotesthim?""He brought me a snack. He did well to find us and matched kicks with Flopsy.""Mykickwasstillthebest." Koutetsu bowed and introduced himself, "My name is Koutetsu of the Kajibamaru, Genin of Uzushiogakure. I have come in the hopes of making new friends and allies." The Big hare turned to face him, his tan underbelly flaring up toward his chest, The red scarf majestically floating in the air. "A potential summoner, you say!? Tied with Flopsy, You say!? HAHA! What a challenge awaits! Come, let us be bound by battle! Should you impress me perhaps, I shall let you meet Gran-Gran!" Throughout Mopsy's loud speech, a deep rumbling could be heard punctuating each line.
A Massive shape, easily eight times taller than Koutetsu and Mopsy loomed out of a tunnel. A large rabbit grey and spotted brown made its way into the room, "No need, Deary." a tender voice announced. Although Koutetsu did not see the large rabbit move its mouth, he did notice a small black whiskered face appear from on top. It slid down one of the massive ears before hopping off and landing on the Ground, "Dot and I have come to Watch." The ground seemed to quake as Dot nestled down to view the battle comfortably, "We don't often get visitors, little one. Please make it entertaining."
"Then it is Settled! Behold! Koutetsu of Kajibamaru, Genin of Uzushiogakure! Where there was but one of my glorious self, now there shall be three! Bun Bun Kage Bunshin no jutsu!" A puff of smoke heralded the arrival of two clones of Mopsy. While Mopsy had spent time shouting his plan, Koutetsu had already formed his b*****d Rapier and set himself in a forward stance, ready for what came next. One of the Mopsy clones charged forwards, "Behold! with this attack, Many a foe has been felled and their bodies crushed by a litter of kittens! Multiplying like rabbits strike!!!" As the clone burst, 5 smaller bunnies appeared and attempted to kick him. As adaptable as the sea, Koutetsu weaved through the little bunnies as they smashed into each other and dispelled. A dark brown glow seemed to coat the rapier as Koutetsu leapt into the air, "First Falling Star!" Coming down towards the original a large shockwave of energy erupted, kicking up dirt, dust, and smoke.
When the dust storm had cleared. Koutetsu found himself groaning in pain, laying face first on the floor. He had been countered. Both Mopsy and his clone had dodged and delivered several strikes before he could react. Koutetsu struggled to his feet. "Haha! You fought well young kit, but I am the best warrior of the Warren. You never stood a chance against my might. I am the strong-" A large shadow seemed to be casted over Mopsy, and Koutetsu wisely moved out of the way as Mopsy's bragging came to a sudden end. A large ear, flattened Mopsy to the floor. "Sorry, Dot.""You did quite well Little one, but not well enough. Still it was entertaining to watch. I look forward to a time when you might stop by again." Dot said, withdrawing her ear, allowing Mopsy to get back up.
The small, black bunny hopped over to Koutetsu."You fought well today, dear. Come back again when you have gotten stronger. We can have tea." Gran-Gran said as she tapped him on the forehead with an incredibly soft paw. In a poof of Smoke, Koutetsu had disappeared from the Warren's Burrow.

Kinobori no Waza [ Act of Tree Climbing ] Rank: X (Learned as D-ranked) Official Description: Kinobori no Waza, the art of tree climbing serves a dual purpose. Taking part in Kinobori Shugyou [ Tree Climbing Training ] helps a Shinobi learn how to focus their Chakra. It also teaches the Shinobi how to run up trees and walk on vertical walls. The training helps the Shinobi learn how to focus just the right amount of Chakra to a particular part of their body. The amount needed to climb is small but it must be precise. The feet are regarded as the hardest location to master Chakra focusing. So by gaining the art of this skill, the Shinobi will have any Jutsu available (theoretically) because they will be able to focus their Chakra as needed. Guild Description: See official description. Does not take up space on the profile, but must have listed. Requires an E-rank upkeep cost per post of use. From there, the user can utilize the technique to effectively anchor themselves to a surface to prevent losing footing and falling, for an amount of chakra equivalent to the technique they are anchoring themselves from.

"Temper temper. Hammer it home." "Temper temper. Hammer it home."
Well. At least I didn't fall out of the sky this time. Koutetsu thought to himself as he got his bearings. He looked around at the large tree trunks nearby, the fog still making it difficult to see. He ran his hand along the bark, until he found familiar scratches. "got it."
Koutetsu followed the trail of scratches until he found himself at the base of the burrow. He made his way inside slowly, stretching his senses out in the hopes of hearing any movement.He traveled through the tunnels until he heard a repeating thumping sound.
It sounds as though someone was hitting a heavy bag repeatedly. Koutetsu thought as he headed towards it. He approached the room the sound was coming from and looked in. There, repeatedly kicking a heavy bag was Flopsy. Koutetsu smiled, then a thought crossed his mind and his smile turned into a grin. "Flopsy!" Koutetsu yelled as he leapt in the air towards her, foot thrusting out. Flopsy blinked, then leapt in the air, to meet his kick, "Oh,Hey!Itsthewannabesummoner!Howyadoin'?" She said in her usual rapid fire delivery, even as she met his kick with one of her own and they both bounced back.
"I'm doing well! Did some more training before I returned. May I speak with Gran Gran? I'd like to have that tea. Koutetsu said. "Sure.Sure.Followme,I'llleteveryoneknowyouarehere."Flopsy hopped past him and made her way down the hall. Koutetsu followed after the grey bunny until they entered a massive dining room. Then Koutetsu was left there to wait, while Flopsy head off to let everyone else know they had a guest.
Koutetsu took off his pack while he waited and began rifling through it. "Hiya, Koutetsu. Didn't expect to see you back." Dade said as he hopped up onto a stool at the table. Koutetsu laughed, "Can't get rid of me that easily, Dade. Here, I've brought snacks for everyone this time." Koutetsu said as he set out a cornucopia of fruits and leafy greens, all checked to be safe for rabbits. Dade's ears twitched,"That's nice of you. Sounds like they'll be here in a few moments." Koutetsu could begin to feel the tremors in the floor.
Another minute or two of quiet conversation between Koutetsu and Dade, as the sounds of Dot's footsteps approaching rang louder, before they settled into a comfortable silence. A massive bunny appeared out of one hallway, "Hello, Little one. It is good to see you." Koutetsu smiled at the massive rabbit. Dot seemed good-natured, but calmer than most."I brought snacks. I hope you like watermelon, I had a harder time picking out something for you. Dot's nose twitched, as they settled into a spot near the head of the table. "Mighty kind of you, little one."
A small, black bunny rose from on top of Dot's back and licked her lips. Sliding down one ear, Gran Gran hopped off and landed on the chair at the head of the table. "Hello, Deary. Flopsy said you have come for tea?" Koutetsu smiled at the elder bunny, "Hai, Gran-Gran. I'm still interested in contracting with your warren and thought a good step would be to take you up on your offer. I hope I have come at a good time." Gran-gran patted Koutetsu's hand gently with a single paw. "Anytime is a good time for tea. Dade, be a dear and make a pot for everyone." Dade hopped off to make the tea.
Rapid thumping betrayed the arrival of Flopsy and Mopsy. "i'mback.I'vebroughtMopsy.OhIseesnacks!Yum!Yum!" Flopsy hopped down to her seat and after sitting, kept thumping in the air. Mopsy on the other hand, entered with his Scarf flowing in the air behind him. His whiskers twitched as he beheld Koutetsu."Koutetsu of Kajibamaru, Genin of Uzushiogakure! You have returned as Flopsy had said!""AsifwhatIsaidwaseverinquestion." Flopsy Grumbled through a mouthful of Cilantro and blackberry.
Koutetsu nodded, and pointed to the table, "I brought food, Mopsy. Please join us. Perhaps after Tea, you and I can go again."Brought food, you say!? Battle again you say!? Ho! Wait..Tea?" Mopsy blanched and looked over to Gran-Gran Who was staring at him directly. Mopsy seemed to deflate and took a seat. More quietly, "Thank you for the food."
Koutetsu blinked at the change as Dade returned and poured everyone a saucer of tea. "Gran-Gran likes quiet conversation with family when having tea. Its one of the only times Mopsy isn't loud." Koutetsu and the warren had tea and their meal, along with quiet conversation. The conversation moved towards the History of summoning with the rabbit warren.
While Koutetsu listened, he discovered that the last summoner of the bunnies had treated them poorly, both in and out of combat. As such they were very cautious in dealing with the Shinobi world. Koutetsu made his own arguments, but Gran-Gran said, "You seem like a good kit, and this was a good step, but I'm still not convinced you are ready. Thank you for joining us for Tea, Deary." Koutetsu bowed and thanked everyone for their time, before Gran-Gran dismissed him.

Sheva walked through the vastness that was this hidden wood, though she wasn’t sure where her gut pulled her; she knew at the end of this something was going to change everything. She stood on the edge of a sheer cliff and finally had the scale in which was the Vast Wood. She sat down on the edge and pulled out her small note book, she wanted to take as many notes as she could before heading into the forest. She noticed even from this height, a dense fog wrapped and wound itself through the trees; visibility was closer to none. She would surely have to go with the notes that she made. The cliff was sheer with few handgrips, though Jutsu would make the descent rather easy... she wanted to make sure that she didn’t frighten anything liaving within the Wood. She looked along the edges of the cliff to see if the landscape sloped... but to her dismay there wasn’t.
She turned around and slowly lowered herself to the edge of the cliff, her heart was racing as she slowly began her climb into the unknown. In all the beauty and mystery that was this forest, there was a sense of danger within it. The unknown was inherently frightening but she didn’t want to turn around now. The closer she got to the ground; the heavier the air the seemed. When she finally reached the ground, she stopped for a moment with her back against the cliffs edge. She needed to get some air in her lungs before preparing for the next leg of her journey...the walk through the dense forest.

After sitting for a while, Sheva knew that her journey must continue. She looked around at the forest and began to take off her armor. Though her armor would have protected from the thickness of the fauna, she didn’t want to frighten anything on the way through. She sealed each piece in a scroll and placed them in her knapsack. Making her way through the dense woodland wasn’t easy, each branch seemed to be thicker then the next and something was following her. Though she wasn’t afraid of a lot after the War; she was more curious about whatever it was. She continued on her journey, pushing a side the branches and being careful to make sure that her trail wasn’t too destructive to the landscape around her. The fog was choking, every breath that she took; she seemed to inhale more of the moist mist. As she continued on this mysterious journey, she started to pick up small berries and natural fruits from within the forest.
Sheva continued through the forest until she came to a clearing with a dirt mound in the middle, she approached slowly and examined it. The clearing was beautiful but she wanted to be careful. As she approached a small rabbit ran from the forest line and to the mound. She knew that heaviness and strange static-like feeling that she had... this was a place that contained immense natural chakra. From what she knew, Nature chakra was a a step in the direction that she wanted to take. She quietly walked closer to the mound and looked in, the space was tight and the nature chakra seemed to vibrate like a gentle breeze from the opening. As soon as she thought about enjoying the gentleness of the breeze, the ground below her hands collapsed sending her falling into the mound.
She landed directly on her back and staring at the opening ‘Sokoros?’, putting two and two together. She slowly raised up and held the back of her head, she looked over and noticed the rabbit she saw earlier seemed to be directly observing her. She continued to slowly get up and showed her palms “ I’m not going to hurt you. “ She slowly reached in a small bag tied to her waist and offered some of her own provisions.
“ I know, I’m just wondering what your doing here. “ The rabbit approached and eat some of the fruits and berries that were offered.
Sheva stood up and looked at the rabbit, she always had a thing for rabbits and it made her smile seeing one that understood her “ Well... where are we? “ She honestly had no idea where she was, she was just following her gut before.
The rabbits snickered and grabbed the rest of the food that was on the ground “ C’mon then, Gran-Gran will want to talk to you. “
Sheva wondered what that even meant but she went with in, the deeper they descended into the hollow; the more concentrated and intense this ambient chakra became.
The rabbit suddenly turned around and looked at Sheva “ You seem nice but I don’t think that this is your time. I’ll see you again. “ She rabbit snapped her fingers and Sheva was back and staring into the mound like before.

Deep in a magical forest that wasn't reachable by normal means. A long raven haired woman traveled the lush forest. "Ikati this better be the way. If you're lying to me you know what will happen right?"
Speaking to her companion who was seemingly a little bigger den a house cat, she'd flash her sharingan at the small kitty. "I-it's just up head lady Noaki.. I wouldn't dare lie to you..." Her tone filled with fear the sight of Naoki's Sharingan made the feline tremble slightly. "Good let us continue then."
Pressing on Naoki and the summon continued to travel through the thick brush of forest. After awhile a small brown bunny came into view. It was feeding on some wild berries in the distance."Lady Naoki! that's one of them!"
Ikati speaking up in a excited but loud voice the bunny suddenly looked their way, before abruptly taking off after seeing both Naoki and the feline. "Useless..." Annoyed at her companion Naoki frowned. "If it gets away Ikati i'll skin you alive. Understand? Go and catch it before it gets to far."
With a threat and stern order. The cat summon took off after the brown rabbit. With no hesitation but with much fear for its fur. Ikati remember the last time she had failed Naoki and it wasn't good...
Using it's powerful back legs the rabbit moved quickly through the forest terrain. Coming to a clearing seemingly in the middle of the forest. The rabbit would think it was in the clear before suddenly being mauled out of no where. pinned to the ground abruptly. The rabbits eyes turned to the culprit Ikati But a much bigger Ikati that the rabbit had saw before. A lion transformed Ikati pinning the small bunny with a single paw.
Roaring out at her victory of speed over the small rabbit. Like lightning Naoki appeared at the side of the lion. "Very good Ikati. Not being useless like always." Sharingan turning from the feline the rabbit was put into her sight. "You don't play any games now. Or i'll have my servant here take a bite. Now where is your leader?"
"Did someone call?" ~POOF!~ Appearing in a huge cloud of smoke about fifteen feet away. Gran-Gran's entrance was much bigger than her herself. Standing at only two feet tall Naoki was somewhat take back with how small she was compared to other summon leaders. "My child why do you use such hostile means to speak to this Oba ba? Is it cause your missing something? I can see your only half of your self.."
Again taken back by the elderly rabbit's insight Naoki didn't take kindly to it. "Shut up hag you know nothing. I'm here for that very reason actually. It seems my other half Freya is moving against me. I need someone close to her to keep tabs and report to me on her actions without her knowing."
Confused for a moment Gran-Gran softly smiled to Naoki. "My child im just an old lady.. I don't see how I can help." Her tone genital she'd look softly at the Uchiha. "Silence! I'm here for you to show fealty to the Uchiha clan and me, Naoki Uchiha Princess of the main branch of the Uchiha!!" As she spoke he arm flew out as the gang of Wild cats were all summoned at once. "You will submit or we go to war. And I assure you.. all of you will die." Her sharingan gleaming fiercely.
"My child we will help you if it means avoiding our extinction. We know of your Uchiha clan and your mother. I wish not to offend you." Presenting a contract scroll Naoki smirked as she flipped her long ravened hair. "Hpmh! Wise decision Oba-ba. Ikati you can let that one go. We are comrades now." Glancing to the lion with the small bunny in it's grasp Naoki approached the contract as she bit into her thumb. Signing the contract in blood it would complete her bond to the rabbit summons. "You will receive your task soon. I look forward to your obedience.."Like Lightning Naoki would be gone.

The clone soared through the skies over the Vastwood and landed as quietly as it could. Sheva knew that rabbits were always a little skittish when it came to things coming from the skies whether it was a human capable flight or a predator. Dispelling the wings on landing, the clone took to the ground. The best way to reach the rabbits that Sheva could remember was to find the den that they all gathered. She had been there once before and failed to sign a contract with them... she knew that this time was going to be different. She felt as if the woods around her gave her a welcoming embrace as they walked through. There was no doubt that this was where she belonged... where she wanted to be. Upon looking for a while, she came upon that familiar hollow. They sat down at the entrance and place their hands together, she wanted to becon the rabbits to her with her friendly chakras. The air seemed heavy and the clone; once sat was immovable from the position. The gathering of her own chakra began gathering the natural chakra that seemed to burst from the opening of the hollow.

The clone began to fill itself with the chakra the flowed through her and from the environment, through Sheva was unsure how exactly the process for converting this energy to something that she would be able to use... the intent was there. The process began and things could be heard in the surrounding brush, it should have been no surprise that Sheva returned. The last time that she was there, she promised to return. The natural chakras from the hollow in the ground was immense and heavy, there had to be a way to receive help from those that called it their home. The clone opened its eyes and used the minuscule amount of chakra to call out to the Vastwood, not only to assist in gaining the trust of the rabbits that called this place home... but to the wood itself. As much as this was the home to the rabbit clan it also belonged to the forest which generated the heavy mist and chakra.

’ Let me be your Sage, Let me be your Champion. ‘
The beacon of Shevas chakra seemed to ring within the vibration of the natural chakras that came from the den. She called to them in a plea for them to accept her as their champion. Power wasn’t something that she sought... though nice... she wanted more then anything was to have the ability to bring peace to those around her. The clone settled into the dirt around her and continued meditating, the clone allowed the natural chakra to begin flowing throughout it. The chakra seemed to turn from a fog into a warm embrace as small rabbits could be seen gathering in the entrance of the hollow. There was a massive rumble from behind the clone, limbs and branches started to crack and fall to the forest floor. Coaching itself, the clone remained with its palms together and sat in concentration. It sat down in the distance in a concentrative stance “ You wish to be the champion ... “ The natural energies became heavy to the clone and concentrating became slight more difficult “ Lets see if you turn to stone. “

’ Let me be your Sage, Let me be your Champion. ‘
The clone sat, hands placed together, eyes open to the world around them; like a self endured trance like state. At this point, the natural chakra was freely flowing though the clone and concentrating was difficult. The massive rabbit mediated with relative ease and chuckled every time the clones eyes fell into it “ Can you not handle it? “
The clone looked at the massive being that sat next to it and sighed “ No, your distracting. “ The smaller rabbits in the area seemed to chuckle as the larger one continued to meditate and pump the natural chakra into the clone. Though Sheva was shape and quick, it wasn’t going to help her in gaining the trust of the rabbits that now nearly surrounded her.
