Breaking News: Irony hasn't stopped being extremely metal.
It was wonderfully sunny and remarkably busy in the streets of Konoha today, people minding their own business whilst also sticking their noses in about anything they overheard as the Jonin exams were a hot topic, so much so in fact that all the hopeful chunins going up for it this time round were the talk of the village.
One such hopeful was none other than Hime Yuki, master of all things cold and icey and the brightest smile for miles around... Or at least that's how she saw herself, a shining testament to the power of the Yuki clan like her mother once was! The girl herself was rushing down the street towards the Konoha stadium to prepare for her exam, skating on a thin patch of ice beneath her feet, just about darting between tourists and locals alike whilst the crowd was still thin and letting some laughter escape her until she came to a stop outside the stadium entrance.
"Hime Yuki, making her grand entrance!" She called out as she strode in through the open doors, looking exceedingly proud in having arrived on time for the exam, moreso for finding her way to the stadium without having to stop to ask for directions. Not impressive feats for someone who lives in Konohagakure, but impressive for Hime as she often tended to get lost in the streets of Konoha, no matter how used to the village she was.
The Hokage was already here, which brought a greater smile to the Yuki's face as she enthusiastically waved at him. "Heeeeeeeeey, Hokage! Are you ready for the exams?" She chimed with high energy, high volume and low regard for the ear drums of those nearby.
Koma Hitsugi
What a tiring trip it had been travelling to Konohagakure from Iwagakure with the rest of the potential Jonins, it was a good thing that she'd arrived early and had some time to rest and check out a few of the sights in the village before it was due time to head to the Exam Stadium and prepare for the Jonin exams.
Due to arriving early, Koma had also arrived before most of the other Iwagakure attendees. This was for many reasons, but her primary one was to get away from the bizarre troupe of people that she could at least call allies. She didn't know them by anything more than name, but the way each of them carried themselves just put her way off from wanting to get to know them. At least Konoha looked nice, lots of trees and pleasant greenery to observe and relax amongst when she finally found a quiet spot in which to sit and watch the village hustle and bustle along.
The aesthetic of the village helped soothe Koma's nerves over this whole exam ordeal, the young woman quietly wondering about that to herself as time passed by slowly. It was only when the expected time of the Iwagakure contingent's arrival was upon her that she rose from her seated position and made her way to the stadium after asking a few friendly enough faces for directions. She'd not thought about scouting out the location of the stadium beforehand so she had to rely on the locals for that much at least, whilst avoiding those who were trying to sell her all manner of things, such as souvenirs, snacks and tools that she really didn't need.
At the entrance to the stadium, Koma found herself hesitating about walking in, she hadn't put much thought into what kind of exam it would be, but if it were anything like the chunin exams, she would likely have to fight someone and be judged on her ability in combat.
This was going to be a problem.
There were already several others present in the centre of the stadium, so she thankfully wasn't the first one there, so she slowly entered and gave a formal bow to those she met there. "K-Koma Hitsugi, chunin of Iwagakure. It's a... Uhh... pleasure to meet you."
【Clan/Bloodline】 Hitsugi - Not a clan of note, aside from having rather remarkable skill with the bow, exceptional eye-sight to match and a few specialised archery-focused techniques.
【Rank】 Chunin
【Chakra Nature】 Wind Lightning
【Appearance/Wardrobe】 Typically, when on a mission or attending shinobi duties, Koma's normal garb is replaced with a simple Iwagakure uniform with flak jacket and a camouflage net worn around her neck like a cloak.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Personality】 Koma is a quiet woman around others, typically not wanting to get into conversations and conflicts with others unless she has to and normally she's got a strong distaste for being the centre of attention. She's honest and polite with comrades to the point where she can at least exchange pleasantries and perhaps indulge them in more until she begins to feel uncomfortable. Really she finds a pleasant sanctuary in isolation so she'll either stay within the confines of her home or be strolling around the craggy cliffs, valleys and rocky areas surrounding the village itself, mostly to avoid interaction with others as much as possible.
If placed within a team or ordered to, she will work with other shinobi to the best of her ability by putting herself out of a target's reach or by scouting and surveying an area for her allies, using smoke bombs and whatever other method possible to get out of her enemy's range.
She doesn't really think she's interesting enough to have close friends or companions, which only serves to make what conversations she does have with other people even harder due to the self-imposed pressure over making a good impression in order to try and actually make friends.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【History】 Koma and the Hitsugi clan aren't too known of aside from the common knowledge that they're a clan of bow users, as a matter of fact even that isn't too well known outside of other shinobi clans or the military.
Koma was born as one of two twins to a proud and happy couple known as Ranna Hitsugi and Tobi Hitsugi, her brother was named Karna Hitsugi and the family started their happy life in Iwagakure. A year after their birth Karna had fallen ill and passed away a couple of months later, it was a blow to Ranna and Tobi but they kept on going, raising little Koma as an only child and doing their best to shelter her from outside influences that might claim her life whilst she was still growing. It was safe to say that they were a little protective over their only remaining child, anyone would be after loss like that.
As she grew Koma was taught to use a bow like the rest of the family in her lineage did and once she became a full-fledged kunoichi the tools of the clan's bowmen were passed down to her to supplement her skill in the shinobi world, with the help of her father she learnt to use the bow and developed her own techniques for it. With the growth of her, her skill and her techniques, so too did knowledge about the girl herself and her clan. And due to her somewhat increased renown, the girl's parents decided to tell her about her lost brother before someone outside the family could find out and tell her instead.
Even by now the girl wasn't much of the social type, so she had no shoulders to cry on aside from her parents, whom she was angry at. She understood why they didn't tell her, but it didn't stop her getting upset and emotional about it whilst she was so young, the fact that she hadn't originally been born alone and the chance for some form of companionship was missed brewed inside her like a bad stew. In mere moments she'd felt so connected to the brother she'd once had and also so lost by the fact he wasn't there now, it made her angry and caused her to seclude herself from others whilst she waited for a mission that required her skill set.
Since then she's still had this quiet, uncertain sensation in the back of her mind, telling her to release those frustrations over her own little venting procedure, such as wallowing in solitude or hunting down a target.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Special Traits】 Exceptional Eyesight and hand-eye co-ordination. Large chakra reserves. Excellent marksmanship. Experienced with Genjutsu.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Equipment/Weapons/Items】 Name of Weapon or Item: Smoke Bombs Description: Used mostly for causing a distraction to get her out of close combat, these are also used as a trigger to some of her genjutsu techniques. Appearance:
Name of Weapon or Item: Chakra-infused Bow Grip Description: A special item passed down the Hitsugi family line to all whom do take up the bow and become shinobi, using chakra moulding to give it form, the user can create a bow of any shape and size suitable to their needs and they consume chakra by forming arrows and firing them. This object can consume a lot of chakra before the user realises the extent of their chakra expenditure and so preferably requires large reserves to use effectively. Appearance: It appears to be a simple wooden bow grip with hollowed-out dents at the top and bottom where small metal rods poke out.
Name of Weapon or Item: Camo-Cloak Description: Another specialised item that belongs to the Hitsugi clan is the camo-cloak, when chakra is channelled through it the cloak disturbs and warps the light around the user to make them appear almost see-through. This is only good for hiding when Koma hasn't been seen yet and when she's immobile or slow-moving as it takes time for the light to warp and when she's moving too fast the cloak is completely disturbed by the amount of movement being made. Appearance: A waist-length mesh cloak.
Name of Weapon or Item: Shikkiya (Moisture Arrow) Description: From Suijin’s bountiful harvest comes beautifully crafted arrows infused with the blessings of the Water God. These arrows are imbedded with miniature seals on the head of the arrow that allow for the ability of Dehydration at a drastically accelerated rate. Depending on how much chakra the user endows the arrow with differentiates the amount of moisture/water the arrow can seal/absorb. The arrow can dehydrate any liquid from any object or organism by rapidly sapping the moisture form the target. The higher the chakra allotted the faster the dehydration, however there are only two arrows allowed per fight in this Kunoichi’s quiver. Appearance: It is very similar to a standard arrow, albeit the head of it is shaped akin to that of a shark's mouth, the jaws clamping down on whatever it hits like a shark would. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
【Kekkei Genkai 】 Name of Kekkei Genkai: None Clan: N/a Rank N/a Description: N/a
Name of Technique: Just out of reach! Type of Jutsu: Genjutsu Rank: C Range: Short Nature Type: Yin Effect: A technique that is triggered by the use of Koma's smoke bombs, it alters the target's depth perception and spatial awareness as she makes her escape to disturb any ability they have to catch her. These effects give the illusion that she is, as the technique states "Just out of reach" no matter how hard they try to catch her, small steps feel like great strides yet they see her out-pacing them and always being ahead by at least a few steps.
The downside to this is that it's a simple genjutsu, anyone who knows about genjutsu would be able to figure it out once they realise something is off. It's also only really effective against the same target once.
Name of Technique: Chakra Bow Type of Jutsu: Kyujutsu Rank: B Range: Short to Extreme Nature Type: Wind, Lightning Effect: Using the Hitsugi clan's specialised tool, the user creates a bow of their liking or requirement out of chakra, drawing and firing an arrow requires the use of chakra and if one is not careful, they could easily run low on chakra with this technique. The chakra arrows fire from this bow fly further, faster and hit harder than a standard bow, but training to know the essentials of using a bow is a must before using this tool.
The bow itself is physically intangible, preventing any part of it aside from the handle from being used to block blades or other weaponry.
Applying a chakra nature to it can amplify it's power depending on the nature; Wind - The arrow flies even faster and unleashes a powerful gust of wind in all directions post-impact. Lightning - This arrow unleashes a stunning field of electricity in a small 1 metre area around the impact point of the arrow.
Name of Technique: Chakra Bow - Saturation Type of Jutsu: Kyujutsu Rank: C Range: Short to Long Nature Type: Wind or Lightning Effect: A technique used to cover an entire area (circular area, approx 100m diameter) in arrows in one shot, building up a considerable amount of charge before firing. In mid-air the arrow bursts into 50 smaller arrows that saturate the area, if attributed with an elemental affinity these smaller arrows will bear the same effects as the arrow types in the main chakra bow technique, only reduced in potency to about half their original effectiveness.
Name of Technique: Chakra Bow - Annihilation Type of Jutsu: Kyujutsu Rank: B Range: Extreme Nature Type: Lightning Effect: This is a technique that Koma calls her "killshot" technique, the amount of chakra taken to create this arrow is currently about half of her entire reserves, but it's designed to detonate upon impact to create a chakra-based blast covering a 20 metre (diameter) area in an attempt to blow up or "annihilate" her target. It could be comparable to being hit by a bolt of lightning or struck down by god himself, if it hits.
It's main drawback is the sheer amount of time and power it takes to fire it, the chakra bow itself requiring modifications to anchor itself to the ground before firing to spare Koma from the recoil of it's shot. It is impossible to try and fire this arrow from a close range or in combat due to it's blast radius and time requirements.
Name of Technique: Chakra Bow - Eagle-Eye Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: C Range: Mid to Extreme Nature Type: n/a Effect: A quick ninjutsu used to assist the already sharp-eyed Koma in ensuring the accuracy of her shots by vastly increasing the range of her vision. It can also supplement an acceptable amount of light for night-time use but otherwise it is mostly an aiming assistant for surveying an area or spotting a long-distance target. Unfortunately in doing this, it means she has trouble viewing things that are closer to her until she de-activates the technique.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Personality】 Hime isn't what one would call "smart", despite what she herself believes. She's in fact quite dull-minded and simple when it comes to most things outside of shinobi life. She tends to deny the fact that she could possibly be wrong when it comes to accomplishing simple tasks until proven wrong, but even then she'll act as if she was instead just testing whomever corrected her. Within the confines of the shinobi ways, Hime is a bit of a loose cannon as she believes her strategies are flawless and finds herself aghast if they fail. Often-times she acts on instinct more than actually thinking about it, providing a higher success rate compared to mundane, everyday tasks.
She's joyful, jubilant and jovial with the people she knows... And with those she doesn't know despite some reservations she has towards anyone asking about her parents, specifically her father. Otherwise she often brags and boasts about how great her ice moves are. Often showing off by making the local area snow, much to the chagrin of anyone nearby. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【History】 It wasn't normal for a member of the Yuki clan, a clan that's almost exclusive to Kirigakure, to live in Konohagakure for any amount of time. But Tamamo Yuki and her daughter Hime Yuki are such members of the Yuki clan living in the leaf village. Why? Well it was initially to escape any issues that Tamamo's seniors might have had with her bearing the child of Jaakuna Aka, a renowned member of Konohagakure's shinobi forces, after a fling they shared during a joint-village mission between Konoha and Kiri.
Tamamo retired for a time whilst in Kiri to look after Hime for a while, but after Jaakuna's passing she moved to Konoha to get away from the rising suspicion about the affair between herself and Jaakuna, in tandem evading any serious questioning and investigation into her relationship with the man and Hime's heritage. Of course even with her move the curiosity followed her after word got out of Kirigakure that something did indeed happen between the two of them, despite how subtle Tamamo's arrival in Konoha was she couldn't quite escape the fact that news travelled and soon she and young Hime found themselves being questioned by those of Konoha about Jaakuna and their relationship with him. Hime may not have had the slightest of clues over who her dad was, nor did she really think about it, Tamamo was always deflecting conversation away from that topic with the coldest shoulder anyone could imagine. Whenever Hime asked the question she was always told that her father was "A beautiful man who was a gift to the world" and the answer was always the same, no matter when or where she asked.
Whilst the girl grew up she was trained privately in the shinobi arts for a few years by her mother, in order to get her ready for the academy, and to help her acclimatize herself to the way things worked in general due to Hime's remarkable lack of intellect... Not to say that she didn't learn in time, it just took her longer to learn such things, so Tamamo started teaching her early so she would start out on the same foot as the other hopeful academy entrants and give her a slight advantage over them at that.
As Hime grew up she and her mother were hassled less by those curious about the rumours behind her heritage, but there was still a great number of people asking her about Jaakuna as if she knew the details to his life despite her insistence that she never met her father, let alone this "Jaakuna" guy they kept talking about. This continued through most of her life, even up to the present day, some of them are the same old faces that ask her whilst others are new faces trying to get a golden nugget of information she just didn't have and causing a lot of undue stress on the girl.
As expected of her dull-minded nature though, she advanced through the academy at a slower rate than her peers but still made it to a level of skill and knowledge that warranted her the chance to rise in the ranks and before long maybe even become a jonin like her mother used to be. That was her biggest aspiration, to be as good a kunoichi as her mother was and even do better than her and become famous all on her own for being such a good kunoichi, the girl's enthusiasm always brought a smile to Tamamo's face no matter her mood beforehand.
Nowadays Hime lives by herself, her mother having passed on and left Hime on her own in the small house they had as she was entering her 20's, it's been a few years since then but she's been able to make a decent living with the shinobi of Konoha.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Equipment/Weapons/Items】 Name of Weapon or Item: Ice Tags Description: Simple paper tags infused with Ice Release chakra, they can create a large pillar of ice to be used by Hime and either control an opponent's movements or supplement her techniques. Appearance:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Kekkei Genkai 】 Name of Kekkei Genkai: Ice release Clan: Yuki Clan Rank N/A Description: This Kekkei Genkai grants the user access to the Ice Release chakra nature.
Name of Technique: Sudden Snow Storm! Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: C Range: Mid Range Nature Type: Ice Release Effect: Hime releases a large dome of ice chakra into the air around her, immediately dropping the temperature of her surroundings and causing localised snowfall to occur. This can be used in tandem with her wind techniques to whisk up an actual snow storm and obscure her opponent's field of view whilst she utilizes the snow to her advantage. This field doesn't follow her, so once it's released it remains in place for about an hour, less time if it's a warm day and more if it's cold.
Name of Technique: Ice Gun - BANG, BANG, BANG! Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: B Range: Close Nature Type: Ice Release Effect: Either using ice in her surroundings or creating it from the water in the air, Hime forms the Tiger handseal with her index fingers pointed at her target and (for effect) shouts "BANG BANG BANG!" as she launches a volley of three ice bullets at her opponent. Getting hit by one of these bullets would be comparable to having a hammer thrown at you, so they are capable of causing serious damage at a close enough range. The drawback is it's lack of major range and low accuracy, thus the need for it's close range, and her own nature in wanting to shouting at the top of her lungs as she fired her bullets.
Name of Technique: Wheeeeeeeee, fairy wings! Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu, Supplementary. Rank: C Range: Self Nature Type: Ice Effect: Hime creates a set of six icicle-like wings on her back along with a small trail of ice from her feet, using the wings and the frictionless properties of the ice beneath her feet to skate along the ground at variable speeds... Though Hime does like to go fast, so more often than not she'll be going as fast as is physically possible. At least she's well practised with it and the ice trail she leaves behind melts very quickly.
This technique can be used in tandem with with techniques, otherwise there's not much combat application to it unless she rams into people.

As expected of her dull-minded nature though, she advanced through the academy at a slower rate than her peers but still made it to a level of skill and knowledge that warranted her the chance to rise in the ranks and before long maybe even become a jonin like her mother used to be. That was her biggest aspiration, to be as good a kunoichi as her mother was and even do better than her and become famous all on her own for being such a good kunoichi, the girl's enthusiasm always brought a smile to Tamamo's face no matter her mood beforehand.
Nowadays Hime lives by herself, her mother having passed on and left Hime on her own in the small house they had as she was entering her 20's, it's been a few years since then but she's been able to make a decent living with the shinobi of Konoha.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Equipment/Weapons/Items】 Name of Weapon or Item: Ice Tags Description: Simple paper tags infused with Ice Release chakra, they can create a large pillar of ice to be used by Hime and either control an opponent's movements or supplement her techniques. Appearance:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Kekkei Genkai 】 Name of Kekkei Genkai: Ice release Clan: Yuki Clan Rank N/A Description: This Kekkei Genkai grants the user access to the Ice Release chakra nature.
Name of Technique: Sudden Snow Storm! Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: C Range: Mid Range Nature Type: Ice Release Effect: Hime releases a large dome of ice chakra into the air around her, immediately dropping the temperature of her surroundings and causing localised snowfall to occur. This can be used in tandem with her wind techniques to whisk up an actual snow storm and obscure her opponent's field of view whilst she utilizes the snow to her advantage. This field doesn't follow her, so once it's released it remains in place for about an hour, less time if it's a warm day and more if it's cold.
Name of Technique: Ice Gun - BANG, BANG, BANG! Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: B Range: Close Nature Type: Ice Release Effect: Either using ice in her surroundings or creating it from the water in the air, Hime forms the Tiger handseal with her index fingers pointed at her target and (for effect) shouts "BANG BANG BANG!" as she launches a volley of three ice bullets at her opponent. Getting hit by one of these bullets would be comparable to having a hammer thrown at you, so they are capable of causing serious damage at a close enough range. The drawback is it's lack of major range and low accuracy, thus the need for it's close range, and her own nature in wanting to shouting at the top of her lungs as she fired her bullets.
Name of Technique: Wheeeeeeeee, fairy wings! Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu, Supplementary. Rank: C Range: Self Nature Type: Ice Effect: Hime creates a set of six icicle-like wings on her back along with a small trail of ice from her feet, using the wings and the frictionless properties of the ice beneath her feet to skate along the ground at variable speeds... Though Hime does like to go fast, so more often than not she'll be going as fast as is physically possible. At least she's well practised with it and the ice trail she leaves behind melts very quickly.
This technique can be used in tandem with with techniques, otherwise there's not much combat application to it unless she rams into people.
Niji Yakei - Kumogakure (somewhere in the outskirts)
Just from the distant view they had of the town they were going to, Niji had a feel for just how small and localised the place was, no doubt everyone knew everyone else here unlike in larger villages. Although to be honest she liked the look of the place, it had a... homely feel to it, a kind of vibe she could get used to if she was here long enough.
As they neared the town it seemed busier than she'd expected, the reconstruction even seemed to be coming along rather well. For now she would let Shinichi do whatever talking was needed done, he knew more about who they were going to see than she did, he knew who to see at least. This confirmed by his casual greeting of an aged man known as Kinuta, whom seemed rather laid back too in some respects.
All Niji did for now was follow the man's lead, approaching the cart next to this small bundle of barrels, lifting and shifting was always a nice little exercise at least. "Running errands isn't bad at least, delivering goods is a nice enough task, so long as it's not our only task." She idly commented, already testing one of the barrels for weight before hefting it carefully onto the cart and making sure it was in place, she'd begin repeating the process as much as she could, even Shinichi helping would be better than nothing around here.
Niji was quiet as she observed the map, merely listening to Shinichi as he added and added to the things he had to say. "I wouldn't quite say that, they just happen to be our defining moments in our lives right now... But we're going to change that fact, I'm sure. If you think about it, destruction and rebuilding is just a cycle of life like anything else, it's just more prone to happening with the amount of collateral damage us shinobi can cause if given the right tools."
Thinking of that, she verbally paused as she followed the map. She would have to talk to the Raikage again at some point, perhaps try to gain access to some subduing and binding techniques, that would be good.
Going by the map their journey wouldn't take long at least, but it gave her a enough time to reflect upon what she could do to further improve herself, techniques and physical ability were useful most of the time. But tactics and tools were also very useful, she lacked in three of these four areas
"Really though, seeing the assault on Kumo those years ago, it was a learning experience to show just what others will do for their own cause and for what they believe to be right. The scale of their prejudice against shinobi was... intimidating, yet also admirable that they were willing to fell entire villages for the purpose of trying to protect the civilians who don't have such capabilities. Everyone could use a gun or a sword, but the usage of chakra is for specific people with enough reserves, training and ability to make it into a reality, and some people just aren't capable of that." She suddenly retorted, glancing back towards him afterwards. "Seeing things like that is unavoidable sometimes."
(Sorry for absence, really couldn't motivate myself to write this whole time.)
Kumogatarui Dobustu - What in the world is that thing!?
The mission had gone successfully, it lead to a nice and dearly needed boost to Kumoga's meek confidence, as a matter of fact she was out of the house for the time being with a few of her spiders clinging to her lengthy pigtails. Of course she knew they were there, so it wasn't like they were going to scare her or anything, but funnily enough it lead to some people keeping their distance... Not that she minded, it was nice to be undisturbed as she roamed the village, there were less other genins around due to the exams that were taking place and the Mizukage herself even went to go watch it play out.
There was a tense air around for a moment, like something was about to happen, but Kumoga didn't pick up on it until the entire village was awash with a massive, frightening level of killing intent... She couldn't even make herself turn to run as it weighed down on her, her spiders dropping from her hair and fleeing... All she could do was stand there, practically frozen by the ill will harboured by the unidentified source. The sound of buildings smashing and people screaming were in the distance, just before the beast released it's acid, a large blob of it splashing and melting a building across the street from her.
Why couldn't she move? She had to try and get away before it hit her too, that one blob was close enough to be a danger anyway, but she couldn't make her legs go... Why wasn't she running away? Just why?
There was a small glob of the acidic gunk flying her way, she barely turned her head in time to see it before she found herself grabbed and pulled away into someone's arms, the sudden jerk of motion brought her about her senses for now and she found herself in her father's arms. "F-Father? What is happening!?" Her father, a shinobi of Kiri known as Sasori, shook his head slightly as he began to speak. "I do not know the details, but Kirigakure is under attack... Looked like a giant slug to me."
"A slug? But look at that!" Urgently the little kunoichi pointed at the half-melted building.
"I know... That part makes less sense than the size of the beast itself." The comment earned a confused look from Kumoga. "Think of it as being much bigger than a building." The girl was in awe at that suggestion of size. "There's nothing that big, let alone a slug!" "Obviously it is no ordinary slug then... We should get back home, it will be safer there." Sasori was quick to take off towards their home, the further from the slug and it's acid the better, although it's corrosive sludge was easily able to reach any corner of the village.
Whilst Kumoga felt brave, she looked back to where it was all originating. "Father... Should we not try to help? Maybe try to slow or restrict this... slug, with our webbing?"
"I dislike the idea, it's body may very well be as acidic as what it's flinging around the village... your mother and I could not allow ourselves, let alone you, to try such a thing." A frown appeared at the rejection of the idea, although he was very correct in his concerns, so she had no real reason to frown like she was. She simply nodded now and they were soon upon the house. Her mother, Cho, flung the door open upon seeing their return and shut it behind them.
"We should be safe for now, it hasn't reached this area of the village with it's attacks yet... Be prepared to escape just in case." Her father was clear in instruction and they started to make preparations for an imminent acid attack... Granted there wasn't much they could do, but having a plan was better than no plan.
It was decided now that Kumoga didn't like this woman, determining that one speaking for all meant they had poor teamwork, she would've said otherwise in defence of the three of them but Hatake-sensei returned before she could do as such. She'd just have to internally frown disapprovingly at Origami for now.
Although she did give the paper spider a curious look as it landed on and clung to her shoulder, she only liked her spiders and no one else's, so she wasn't keen on this paper imitation lurking on her shoulder where she could see it... She'd have to put up with that and frown on the inside too, wouldn't she? But no matter, Hatake-sensei had already said it was time to go.
So the girl looked up towards her sensei and gave a nod. "Understood, Hatake-sensei." Was all she had to say as she followed after Tora, they had some prey to capture after all, she had to hurry if Tora claimed they'd be done in five minutes.
