Episode 9: A New Thunder, Master of Seals...
*******************************************************************
Much angst is going through the villagers minds as the anticipation of a possible invasion by the Sanada Clan has reached even the children's ears. Preparations have begun to fortify Village of Konoha, as the Fifth has begun her peace talks with Village of the Sand, and Mist for support.
Tsunade steps up in front of the group of Jounins and Chuunins and even Anbu,
"The final preparations are complete. Now we need support from the Village of Sand, and Mist."
Gaara steps out of the shadows,
"I will ensure the Village of Sand's cooperation, the Sanada Clan shall not be successful."
Gaara then heads out of the room on his way back to the Village of Sand. Naruto and Sasuke walk into the room right after having just woken up.
"What's with the silence?" Naruto looks around.
"We're in a meeting right now, Naruto." Sasuke assures Naruto.
"It's good to see you two back in good health," Tsunade then continues with her briefing, "Now, we need representatives to head to the Village of the Mist for peace talks and possible support from them. Can I expect volunteers or should I start picking out of a hat?"
Sakura stands up and with hesitation, so does Ino, "We'll go!"
Tsunade acknowledges Sakura and Ino, "Alright, be swift and cunning, the Sanada is out there, you cannot go as if your strolling down the park thinking about Sasuke."
Both the girls blush and head out of the room. As they walk past Sasuke, they both smile at him as he smiles back. Tsunade calls Naruto and Sasuke up to the front,
"I know you guys are fine, but you aren't 100% yet... I'll need you to to stay here and help with the defenses."
Sasuke nods, as Naruto speaks up, "But I wanna do something exciting!"
Tsunade shifts her anger, "I won't say it again... besides a certain someone is looking for you. He wants to train you."
Naruto begins to look baffled, "Ero sennin!?"
"Yes" Tsunade nods and walks out of the office. Both Sasuke and Naruto leave as well and head to the Ichiraku. They sit down and notice that the cook isn't there.
"Hoi, Oyaji!" All of a sudden Jiraiya comes from outside and pops in, "Oi, Naruto... Itamae-san stepped out" Naruto looks back, "Ero-sennin! Doko{where}?" Jiraiya looks around, "I don't know, let's go! I have something to show you..."
"Alright! See ya later Sasuke!" Naruto gives him a high five and leaves Ichiraku with Jiraiya. Sasuke sat in the stool patiently as if waiting for someone. He then sat up and walked to the entrance, "I might as well train some more... Naruto is getting stronger and stronger."
Sasuke proceeds to walk off in the distance in the direction of the forest. He then begins to do basic warm ups including sit ups, push ups, and basic taijutsu training. He then powers up a Chidori and runs up and cuts down a tree.
Breathing heavily, Sasuke looks up in angst..."I need to become more powerful then Naruto...that Rasengan... is so...."
Then a misty figure comes out of the brush as it's a girl. Sporting a head protector with crimson red hair, long, and bandages all over her body, "It won't help crying about it, maybe you should just try as hard as Naruto..."
"Ryuka-chan, theres no use trying to pep-talk me. I'm a natural genius, I should be able to produce a lot more than that drop-out." Ryuka walks up to Sasuke and slaps him, "That drop-out is stronger than you now because he works hard at it!"
Sasuke takes the hit and whispers, "...you'll regret that..."
Sasuke flips up against the tree and throws Shurikens at Ryuka. Ryuka dodges the shurikens and throws a few back in retaliation. Sasuke flings them out of trajectory with his own shuriken as he then lands on a branch performing particular hand seals,
"Katon! Housenka no Jutsu!" Sasuke summons fireballs from his Chakra and fires them at Ryuka. Ryuka summons her own to retaliate,
"Kyasha Akai Hane no Jutsu!" Powerful feathers the color of red appear from her Chakra, and then meet the fireballs with impact as they combust and take the fireballs with them.
"Impressive..." Sasuke flies down at her and strikes at her with the shuriken as she pulls out her kobun and parries the attack and slams Sasuke down to the ground with the kobun to his neck, and her knees on his back. "You have no idea who you're dealing with..."
Sasuke then looks up at the confident femme fatale, "...Aho..." Sasuke's body turns into a log as Sasuke punches Ryuka off the log with great force. Ryuka flips back up and is breathing heavily. Sasuke is standing there playing with his fingers and whistling.
"That won't work twice," Ryuka then stands up and performs several hand seals unique to her,
"Mayonaka Sokubaku No Jutsu!" chains appear out of no where and capture Sasuke, as she is tied down he is panicing. Then with her left hand she holds it out to the left, "YOU TOO!" chains appear from the ground and capture the real Sasuke as the original one turns into a log again.
"Grrr...." Sasuke being captured his anger elevates, the chains tighten with Ryuka's commands, "I said it won't work twice..." Sasuke then gets real pissed.
"You anger me woman......" He holds out his hand as pure chakra begins to enfulf his fist, "...Chidori..." Ryuka looks up and what he's creating, "Chikuushou!"
Sasuke then uses Chidori to break the chains and he begins to lunge at Ryuka. Ryuka holds both arms across her chest to try to brace for a huge attack. Sasuke then winds up and strikes Ryuka.
Suddenly Sasuke is sent flying back into a tree trunk, head first. He gets up Chidori stilled powered up, "Who the hell are you?"
Ryuka looks up and sees that she was not hit, only because a guy in front of her deflected the attack, "Yeah who are you?" The man turns around, "theres no time for introductions..."
The man turns back to Sasuke and his eyes become piercing red, "How dare you try to use Chidori on a fellow comrade....." Sasuke then replies, "Shut up!"
"Are you not preparing for an attack by Sanada, and you're sitting here having pissing contests, and with a girl none the less." Sasuke begins to flame with anger, "I'm tried of this ****" He begins to run towards the man and winds up his Chidori. The man immediately performs unique hand seals, "what kind of hand seals are those?" Ryuka questions...
Suddenly, the man finishes his seals, "SATSU!"
Sasuke's feet become embelished with a glowing red aura as he is unable to continue,
"Nani?!" Sasuke tries harder and harder to move, but he can't.
"It's a seal I put on you... you can stay here and simmer while I report to the Fifth....Goodday ma'am."
The man teleports away from the forest as Ryuka is in confusion to the max. She looks up to the sky then back at Sasuke who is stuck, "Hahaha! He showed you eh?"
"I'll get you back for this Ryuka!" Ryuka then heads out of the forest heading towards Ichiraku.
The scene fades into the Fifth's office with the local Daimyos and Kakashi, Asuma, Kurenai, and Genma standing in front of the desk. Suddenly the man from the forest teleports into the office. As the Jounins raise their shurikens, Tsunade orders them to stand down,
"Welcome, Kunoichi Seiiryu..." The Jounins and Daimyos raise their eyebrows as to the surprise.
"Thank you, Tsunade-sama..."
"Who is this kid?" Kakashi points to him and turns to Tsunade.
"He is Kunoichi Sei-" Tsunade is interrupted by Genma, "Kunoichi Seiiryu of the clan Kunoichi...They say that the Kunoichi clan was the first ever clan to perform special seals."
Tsunade continues the story, "In fact, Seiiryu's grandfather was the one who created the monster seal the fourth used to defeat Kyuubi.."
Kakashi looks at the kid again, "So this kid is a master of seals?"
Tsunade nods, as Seiiryu bows to the Jounin of Konoha, "I am Kunoichi Seiiryu, Chuunin of the Thunder Country, and 3rd generation Kunoichi. Yorishiku onegaishimasu!"
Kurenai looks him up and down, "A chuunin? How old are you?"
"I'm 18..." Kurenai becomes red, "I see.... {whispers to Asuma}He's cute isn't he?"
Asuma looks away with his arms crossed, "Pfft... he's nothing..."
Tsunade begins, "Now that the introductions have been completed, I shall get to you later Sei-kun, but right now can you stay at your assigned quarters until you are summoned?"
"Hai..." Seiiryu teleports out and appears at the front step of his apartment. He walks in and drop down to his knees as tear flow from his eyes,
"Kamitachi...Momaru....Kuren-sensei...."
Kakashi appears in the Seiiryu's window,
"Who're they?"
"Nani!?" Seiiryu looks up at Kakashi, "What are you doing here?"
"I followed you... though I trust the Fifth I have many speculations as to why you're here."
"Pfft.... just leave me alone, I'm here to help and thats all that matters."
Kakashi's half Sharingan begins to glow, "Why do you have scars on your neck?"
"...You just seem to hit all the soft spots don't you..." Seiiryu plops down on his couch and tears even more...
"A year ago, me and my comrades along with Kuren-sensei were on a Class S mission to eliminate Uchiha Itachi."
"Aho....3 Chuunins and a Jounin can't have a possible chance against Itachi."
"Lesson learned... he used a very high level Genjutsu on us...everyone was being tortured to death. Okami my loyal wolf-lord saw through the illusion and dragged me out of there...I can still hear their screams of pain and agony."
Kakashi looks down at the floor, "Sorry..."
"It's okay... something had to be said...I need sleep, don't you?"
"Hai..." Kakashi leaves through the window as Seiiryu grabs his head in pain thinking about his comrades.
"I will avenge you.... my precious comrades."
