Her larger items or ones used for Jutsu are carried in a giant scroll that is held by a strap to her back. Momo's typical gear consists of a pink shirt under a black vest that is paired with a grey pair of pants and pink sandals. Often times she wears her hair up in a ponytail, and her bangs clipped to the side along with her pink forhead protector used more like a headband. She is short and appears young for her age, though most people are surprised by how much energy she has. Her build is skinny with light muscle and she has hardly any kind of bust or hip definition, giving her a tomboyish look. [B][U]History:[/U][/B] Akihiko Sakurai (father), a jounin ranked shinobi, had been reported to help to lead a platoon, to relieve a siege on a Sunagakure camp that was being harrassed by bandit forces. Hana Haragi (mother), a jounin ranked kunoichi, had been the leading figure in some operations meant to strengthen the village borders, but later was transfered to help in the front against the bandits. Together they were assigned to lead a platoon of Sunagakure shinobi and were able to help with regaining land from the bandit invasion forces. But during their time working together, they fell in love. Which of course caused Hana to become pregnant. After this was revealed, she was sent back to Sunagakure. One day Momo was born in Sunagakure... Her father however was kept to fight at the grim front against the growing bandits. But due skill, luck and the leadership that lead the forces at that front, he managed to survive the many battlefields that came to existance due the warring Suna and rebel shinobi. After the fighting, both parents were stationed in Sunagakure after requesting it. They were set to become part of the shinobi that would be helping to defend the village or doing missions nearby the village. After some time the two of them were assigned to teach at the Academy. A job they both appreciated and enjoyed. Meanwhile, Momo was thus raised without knowing the pain or grim world that was outside the walls of the village. And though she wished to become a kunoichi, her parents wouldn't let her attend and go to the Academy until a later age. Probably due their own experience as shinobi. But in the end she was allowed to enter the Academy at the age of thirteen years old. During the Academy, Momo became more interested due the stories of adventures of ninja and the aspect of learning was what the final push for her to strive to become a full kunoichi. The problem however came that she was bad at a lot of things, shown in many tests where she scored quite low. With scoring better in other fields such as target practice and general studies, it became clear that she would need to work on the poor parts while focusing on her talents. She had some success raising up her skills in taijutsu and ninjutsu, but over time became more interested in weapons and ninja tools. After learning from her parents that her fascination could lead her in a different path and also bring success, she decided to pursue it and began to focus more on Bukijutsu and learning how to aquire and summon different weapons. She became good at this, really good. Graduating the Academy at fourteen, Momo would join a team and continue on with advancing her skills. Eventually promotion was on the horizon some years later, but that was cut short. Momo's mother gave birth to a little girl who she allowed Momo to name, Ayama since it went well with their last name. During the entire pregnancy, her mother was in and out of the hospital, getting sick seemingly every other week. Many times the family was stricken with fear that they would lose the baby... though as time went on, it became clear that the baby was fine and it was her mother that they were losing. They all knew her mother was in pain all the time, even if she was good at hiding it. By the last week of the pregnancy, Momo's mother had lost nearly half of her body weight and was merely a ghost of her former self. Despite this, she managed to hold on with sheer willpower and the need to see her baby before passing on. A few minutes before midnight on the day the baby was born, Momo's mother died in her sleep, peaceful and painlessly. Despite warnings ahead of time and preparing mentally, Momo was still grief stricken by the news, as was her father. It was a blessing the baby had been born, but a curse the family had to go on without her mothers cheeriness brightening up the house. Taking the roll of mother herself, Momo took a break from her squad, watching over Ayama while her Father worked in the Academy by day and at night she would train, making sure she would not lose her skills from lack of practice. The stress of having to watch over her baby sister slowly began to build up on top of the pain she felt at the loss of her mother and for a short time, Momo flew into a depression. Her father noticing this, he forced Momo back into doing what she loved, being part of a squad, honing her skills and helping out the village. Now at present, she is to be assigned a new team as some things have been moved around. Her goal is currently to follow in the footsteps of her parents, who are renowned and respected shinobi that work to teach students in the Academy. Momo wants to someday be able to call her self a true Weapons Specialist and work in the Academy, teaching those students like her who seem to have no promise, and showing them that their talents lie elsewhere. To this day she dreams of her mother most nights, knowing that her former classroom will one day be hers to claim. [B][U]Personality:[/U][/B] Momo is confident and outgoing, quite fun to be around if one has a sense of humor. Momo has never been afraid to speak her mind for fear of hurting someone’s feelings and she isn’t above tossing a snarky remark or two when/if the situation calls for it. The majority of her repertoire consists of sarcastic comments or jokes accompanied by a sardonic smirk or raising of an eyebrow. She has been called cold more than a few times, but only because has extremely selective empathy, being that she cannot bring herself to understand the ridiculous reasons which cause a great deal of upset and alarm to most people. Crying at the drop of a hat is simply annoying and a waste of the human body’s functions in her opinion. Tear glands exist for the purpose of keeping one’s eyes moist to prevent them drying out, not to stream torrents of water down one’s face because of silly things. As a firm believer of independence, she absolutely loathes damsels in distress. She’s quite determined and headstrong when it comes to accomplishing tasks. Despite all appearances, Momo is not always as carefree as she seems, and has a completely different side when she is alone, a more pained side that she keeps hidden from many. For her own reasons. She has no problem making friends as she enjoys the company of others every once in a while. Momo is a fast learner, not usually falling for the same tricks or making the same mistakes twice. She has a high tolerance for pain and is not afraid of any thing, death included. She's not reckless, but wont back down from a challenge just because she thinks her opponent has an advantage. Momo has amazing balance and a talent for singing... of all things.

Momo is quick on her feet and very agile, using her small stature to weave and jump in circles around her opponent and strike with fast kicks. She also has the ability to unseal things other than tools. Things such as water and fire can come in handy in non combat situations.
