She has a tendency to start fights as a way to quell her boredom. She is the brawn while her sister was the brain of the duo. This not meaning she was incompetent when I came to being a good fighter. She just preferred instinct rather than planning. Along with her being easily bored, Ryokō can be impatient if she is not interested in what’s going on. She is a girl of few words and many unnecessary actions, such as when she will start swinging her tanto in the middle of public just to get more practice in. [u]History [/u] [i] Ryoko and Saki were twin girls born in Kumogakure and were the only children of their parents. While the girls were young, they both found an interest in becoming ninja. Their parents however were not ninja nor ever had an interest in becoming ninja, unlike their children. At first Ryokō and Saki’s parents were hesitant to let their only children become ninja due to the risks of the occupation but after constant nagging from both girls their parents agreed to sign them up for the ninja academy. However there was one condition. The girls had to always look out for each other. The girl enthusiastically agreed and in a few weeks they began their classes at the academy. While at the academy the girls quickly found the fighting style that fit them the most. Ryokō liked to use her tanto in up close fighting and relied on her fighting instincts while Saki liked to use her kunai and shuriken from a distance and preferred to come up with a plan before engaging the enemy. Despite these very polarising fighting styles, the girls worked flawlessly with each other. They were able to cover each other from their respective fighting distance as well as know what the other was thinking based on pure intuition. But their parents preferred to call it their “twintuition”. Many times Saki would come up with a plan while Ryokō stalled for time fighting the enemy. This resulted in the pair earning the title “The Soaring Blades” based on how the seemed to fly through fights at an incredibly efficient pace. The girls were always paired up on missions and quickly climbed the ranks of ninja to eventually chunin. One day the girls were given a mission to escort a VIP belonging to Konohagakure from Kumogakure back to their village. It was a mission that they had done dozens of times before. Nothing difficult at all. Just fend off any bandits, easy. However things were different this time. While escorting the VIP, the squadron came across something they didn’t expect. Ninja from Amegakure. Not just any ninja, elite jounin ninja. They were obviously here to assassinate the Konoha VIP and take the valuble information that he had been carrying. The girls and their fellow team quickly agreed to send someone to go get reinforcements while the others stalled for time. They sent the fastest ninja on their team leaving the twins and their team leader. The undermanned team held off the ninja for as long as they could but they were getting tired and running out of chakra. Surrounded and running out of time their team leader plays the piece of the pawn and uses his last strength to take out most of the remaining Rain ninja but at the cost of his life. It was now two versus two. Saki quickly came up with a plan to defeat the remaining two ninja and quickly set it in motion. Saki threw her kunai and encased them in fire using her ninjutsu. Ryokō weaved between the kunai and took out one of the ninja with her tanto. The other ninja rushes toward her at a lightning quick pace with his kunai about to strike. Ryokō’s guard was down, she was wide open. And also a perfect distraction. Saki rushes in cutting off the last rain ninja’s path and stabbing him in the chest with her kunai. The ninja goes limp and the battle is one. The VIP is safe and they can wait for the reinforcements to arrive so they can recover their leaders body ad continue their mission. Saki turns to look at Ryokō with was grin on her face knowing in each other’s hearts that aslong as they fight together, they are invincible. BOOOM!! Ryokō woke up with her teammate leaning over her with tears in her eyes. Her ears still ringing from the explosion. “Wait what explosion?!” Ryokō thought to herself. Ryokō sat up looking for her sister. She had to be here. She had to be ok. These were the thoughts running through her mind. She looks around and sees medical ninja from her village around her injured leader and can barely make out the words, “He’s going to be ok”. Good her leader lives another day. She continues look around and finds ninja around Saki. But they’re not medical ninja. Why aren’t there medical ninja around her sister? She looks to her teammate and now understands why there is tears in her eyes. Saki is dead. Ryokō’s mind goes racing back to the moments before the explosion. She suddenly realized what happened. The last ninja stuck a paper bomb on her just Saki got him. Why didn’t she see it? It was right in front of her. Had she not been so confident that they would win Saki would be fin-. No it wasn’t over confidence. It was lack of strength. Had Ryokō been stronger she could have taken out both ninja and quick enough so that he wouldn’t have time to plant a paper bomb. If only she had been stronger. Ryokō laid back and started crying. She didn’t stop until she passed out. Ryokō woke up in the hospital a day later with her teammate by her bedside. Her parents had passed away a year ago, both due to illness, so it was just her now. Ryokō left the hospital a few days later to bury her sister. She had a new fire inside her that had never been there before. She took a vow to get stronger so no one close to her had to die again. She requested a leave of absence for an undetermined amount of time and was allowed to do so on one condition. If she planned on leaving the village she had to leave her headband behind. This was so any reputation she earned, good or bad, would not reflect badly on the village. Ryokō agreed and handed in her headband to the Raikage. She was leaving the village and may never return. Ryokō quickly gathered her things and set out to find opponents that could make her better. With her tanto and her sister’s kunai and shuriken she would be the one woman soaring blade. Using her jutsu along with her sisters, she vowed to become unstoppable.
