This kid, Sora thought as she hefted the unconscious form of Kuronmeru Enyo on her shoulder, is going to be the death of me. It was supposed to be a simple day; a quick evaluation with the boy, followed by a team meeting, then lunch and maybe line up a D rank for the kids to learn how to work together. But no. No, Enyo had to go and flip out like a bloody maniac, forcing her to knock him unconscious just to keep him from hurting himself trying to kill her.

The medics at the Academy had handled his broken ribs well enough, administering a light sedative so she could carry him home and advising a few days rest before he did anything strenuous. They’d also had a few words for her and her apparent habit of snapping Genin's bones like twigs.

Suffice to say, the day was not going well. And it was about to get worse.

"Your family better not try anything.” She murmured as she approached the Kuronmeru compound, which wasn’t all that far from her new home. It was incredible how much money could buy, if you knew the right people. Or had the right rank, as it were. Shaking her head with a sigh, Sora grabbed the handle on one of the traditional looking gates, a round ring with decorative flourishes meant to evoke the image of a demon, and knocked three times, announcing her presence to anyone who might happen to be nearby.

"Hello? Anyone home? I’ve got… a very annoying child to drop off!” Her words echoed through the air, black-wood of the front gates looming with an (admittedly impressive) menace that likely would have scared off even a stout Chuunin, but she paid it no mind. Though her right hand did come to rest on Samidare’s hilt. Just in case. Enyo’s family wasn’t known for its kindness. Or its willingness to entertain guests.

It was a rare day off from his duties and Inei planned on enjoying it at home by utilizing the Clan’s training grounds and get some needed exercise in. That was the plan, but plans rarely seemed to go the way they were supposed to, because as he passed by the front of the Compound, the door was knocked on.
[break][break]
Inei didn’t answer doors. They had staff for that sort of thing. But sitting here, waiting for someone to appear and open the door, seemed ridiculous even by his standards. Plus, whoever was on the other side had one of the younger clan members with her. An annoying child...probably one of the twins. Inei had a pretty good guess which one.
[break][break]
Huffing out a sigh, he pulled the gate open, hinges creaking ominously, as it revealed a familiar woman with an even more familiar boy slung over her shoulder. Inei couldn’t help his smile, but it didn’t reach his eyes as he looked out over the scene.
[break][break]
"Enyo?" The tokubetsu jounin wasn’t impressed, sighing even through his smile. "Such a disgrace." It was said to himself, but not quietly, so Sora could probably hear the statement.
[break][break]
"Apologies that you had to bring him all the way here. You really didn’t have to." Inei held his arm out, offering to take the boy from Sora. It was true, she didn't have to bring Enyo home. He would have woken up eventually, and it would be a lesson learned. This was just making it Inei's problem now and it irritated him.

There were few people Sora truly, openly despised these days; with time had come a mellowing of her hatred of the Kaguya clan, replaced by a quiet cynicism for the older members and a sad, conflicted hope for the younger. Even Enyo, as awful as he was, did not truly hold a place of hatred in her heart. Annoyance, certainly, but not hatred. His brother, however…

His brother was a different story.

"Yes, I did." Sora said once the Tokubetsu Jounin finished speaking, not bothering to hide or even mask her disgust. Inei had joined the Hunter-Corps after her time there, but she kept in contact with enough of her old comrades to know the man had a reputation for more than just his clan’s brand of cruelty. It was said he particularly enjoyed picking on those he knew couldn’t hit back- like, for instance, his younger brother.

"Enyo is my student, Inei. I’ve a responsibility to see him home. Safely." And as for that second bit… well. She knew the boy hadn’t learned a damn thing from their brief "fight.” He’d been too enraged by her insult (and she starting to see which one it was that had bothered him so) to focus on anything but hurting her- and, despite being woefully outclassed, he had managed to land a hit at the end. A symbolic one, but still.

"So, if you wouldn’t mind, I’ll take him to his room and be gone.” Because there was no way in hell she was letting Enyo’s psychopathic older brother anywhere near him while he was unconscious. Not without someone there to keep watch, anyway.

Aw. She didn’t like him. How terrible. Inei’s smile didn’t shrink, but his eyes took on a steely look as the woman basically brushed his words aside and demanded entry to the Compound. Well, that wasn’t allowed. He dropped his arm and pulled on the door, closing it so he stood in the opening.
[break][break]
"Welp, you’ve seen him home. Kudos to you." She obviously wanted merit points or something, for being a good and kind teacher who brought her students right to their beds and tucked them in.
[break][break]
Inei bristled slightly at her insistence about coming inside to drop Enyo off. Outsiders didn’t get to come into their home, not unless they were there to work or had their parents’ permission. Too many skeletons in closets for people to see, he guessed. He never asked for the real reason. So he definitely wasn’t going to let this woman inside for such a weak reason as putting Enyo to bed.
[break][break]
"And I’m his brother, Sora." Since, apparently, they were on a first name basis. "Your responsibility ends at this door."
[break][break]
He stuck his arm out again, giving her his most saccharine smile. "I’m perfectly capable of delivering him to his room." The Kuronmeru didn’t want to deal with this woman any longer. He had absolutely zero respect for the wannabe Swordsman. "Now give me the brat and you can be on your way. I’m sure there are kittens that need pulling out of trees or something."

In many ways, Inei and his brothers were a product of their environment. Their parents were born… different. Angry. Violent. Cruel. And they raised their children, even the young ones, to be the same. It was a horrible way to grow up, to be treated- but some of them took to that worldview like an Ama to the sea. Enyo was an example of this, a pit of seething rage and malice painted over with a thin veneer of civility and culture. But if Enyo was a flower not yet ready for its first buds, Inei was a nightshade in full bloom.

"I’m aware." Sora said, lowering Enyo to the ground (gently) as she spoke, laying the boy’s head against the gate. "Just as I am also aware of your… proclivities." That was the kindest way to put the Hunter-Nin’s penchant for unproved violence and cruelty, particularly towards those he found weak. And there was no doubt in her mind he thought his younger brother to be weaker than most.

"So, I’m going to make this clear, so even your tiny thug brain can comprehend it." She laid her right hand on Samidare’s saya as she spoke, thumb flicking up against the tsuba until it slid the blade up, enough to bare the smallest sliver of metal in the afternoon sun. "Enyo has team training tomorrow. He will be there. Unharmed and rested."

Sora paused, allowing the young man before her to process what she said before continuing on. "If he isn’t, I will hold you responsible. And then I will take those sparky-sticks you call swords and shove them so far up your ass you’ll glow. Is that understood, Kurōtadori?” She wasn’t supposed to know that name, not now that she wasn’t in the Hunter Corps. But people talked, and old comrades often shared things over a drink that they shouldn’t. Especially to someone with a reputation like her old codename held.

Inei was fast growing bored with Minami Sora. The woman acted as though she knew him and his motives. She didn’t. Yes, he had a reputation for fighting with more force than necessary, but judging from the state Enyo was in, Sora wasn’t much better.
[break][break]
"Don’t worry, hero, I don’t beat up unconscious people." He usually didn’t. Kicking the beds they were sleeping on and giving them a rude wake up call, was another story entirely. In fact, if anyone bothered to look deeper into Inei’s fights, they would find that he rarely ever threw the first punch. Physically, anyway. He didn’t need to. The elder Kuronmeru was a master at using his silver tongue to goad people past their breaking point.
[break][break]
But when it came to Enyo, Inei rarely even needed to say a word. Just his mere existence would cause the boy to attack at the drop of a hat. It was expected. It was the Kuronmeru way to raise status through a show of strength, and Enyo had something to prove.
[break][break]
Inei’s smile twitched at the corner as Sora set the unconscious boy on the ground rather than handing him over. She seemed to be purposefully trying to insult him. Especially with all the posturing. If gave proof to the notion that those without skill needed to talk a big game in order to feel adequate.
[break][break]
"So much blustering," he said, extended hand dropping down to rest on the Kiba’s hilt. "Out of the two of us, you’re the one with an injured and unconscious genin, Shark."
[break][break]
If she was going to be childish enough to bring out the secret code names, he saw no problem returning the favor.
[break][break]
"Maybe worry less about me and more about what would happen should someone report your abuse."
[break][break]
Training could get rough, everyone knew that, but the Genin Team leaders were supposed to be able to control themselves and hold back. If people as influential as the Kuronmeru caused a stir, Sora could easily be stripped of her job if not her rank.
[break][break]
They wouldn’t - Inei’s and Enyo’s parents expected them to be able to take care of themselves and it would be an embarrassment if one couldn’t - but the threat was still there.

Sora smiled through Inei’s threats, her lips curling in a soft, knowing smirk. He was so like his younger brother, the desperation to please his parents wrapped up in a shell of arrogance and bravado so thick it was almost visible. So when the boy put a hand on his blades, matching her implication with one of his own, the Jounin didn’t flinch- she merely chuckled, sky-blue gaze gleaming in the afternoon sun.

"Any time you want to go, sparky-boy, I’m all yours." She said, glancing towards Enyo as she stepped back, ready but not willing to make the first cut. She could and would tear him to ribbons if she had to, but not if it meant throwing the first punch. Not here, on their front porch, where a dozen witnesses would spring up out of nowhere to condemn her.

"Now, unless you’d like to meet the woman that name belonged to?” Sora’s face hardened while she spoke, her voice dropping low, almost to a whisper, her eyes going cold as she looked right into Inei’s eyes, unmoving, the tempest within calm and still for once. "I suggest you pick your brother up and head inside, boy. I don’t have time to entertain your childish fantasies.”

The look on Inei’s face remained serene, as if he was completely unaffected by Sora’s taunts. But the darkening of his eyes gave his anger away. She was pushing his buttons and he wasn’t one to back away from a challenge.
[break][break]
"Fine," he said, fingers twitching where they rested against the hilt of the Kiba. "You talk big, so put action to your words." They wouldn’t fight right here, the fight would be skewed in his favor on his home turf and that would be a hollow victory. Plus, Enyo could be caught in the crossfire and having to explain that to his parents would be a headache.
[break][break]
"Three days, I’ll be at the coastlands. Join me there." Open and neutral ground, perfect for a clash between the two forces.
[break][break]
But that was then, this was now. The last thing Inei wanted to do was what Sora told him to do, but he couldn’t just leave Enyo lying there. Well, he could, but it would be more trouble than it was worth. His smile twitched and he leaned over, grabbing the boy by the front of his clothes and hauling him up and over his shoulder, like a sack of potatoes.
[break][break]
"But that is your job, Sora." Referring to her fulfilling chilidsh fantasies. He shoved his free arm against the gate, swinging it loose so it began to close. "Or did you forget that you decided to play with children rather than have a real job as a hunter-nin."
[break][break]
He gave her his most saccharine smile as the gate swung closed completely then he turned on his heel and headed back towards the manor, on the lookout for the first member of the family staff he could drop the brat onto, so he could go practice for his upcoming fight.

Sora didn’t speak when Inei made his offer, didn’t respond beyond a simple, curt nod of understanding, her lips still holding their knowing smile as she turned away from the Kuronmeru and left him to his business. His final taunt fell on deaf ears, long legs carrying her away from him and the den of sadism he called a home with steady, purposed strides. It had been a long time since she’d worn the Hunter-nin mask, over six years, and in that time she hadn’t truly allowed herself to revert back to that mentality- the constant training, the endless missions, the bodies that piled up, it wore on a person. Rubbed their soul raw, as it were. The ease with which she fell back into that mindset should have scared her.

It didn’t.
Three days passed and, for the Jounin, they passed quickly. Though her time had been spent mostly in team training exercises, she hadn’t been lax about the coming fight; she had prepared, thought her strategy through, and given herself plenty of rest the day before. She had risen bright and early, before dawn, making her way to the location Inei had picked out for their duel, a flat portion of coastline that extended up into a high cliff overlooking the ocean. Small rocks and larger, jutting boulders were scattered through the water, standing like pillars against the sea, and a soft breeze carried the scent of salt over the sand, filling her nostrils.

A perfect place to shed blood, Sora thought as she leapt up a top one of the rocks and sat down. The waves will wash it all away. There was little else to do now but wait- wait for the sunrise, for Inei, for the coming fight and all that it meant. For her, and for the village.

Special Abilities:
The Kunoichi That Goes On And On And On… [Endurance SA]
Perhaps part of her genetics or simply a random quirk of fate, Sora is unnaturally resilient, be it to physical pain or the toils of extended combat. While most Shinobi would collapse in exhaustion at having used all but the smallest sliver of their chakra reserves, she pushes on; while most Shinobi would wilt beneath the weight of sleepless night after sleepless night, she keeps going. This does not mean she does not feel pain/the strain of extended combat, but rather that her threshold for shutting down because of it is far higher than others. To give an example, if she were to be stabbed through her abdomen, she would still feel the pain of the injury, and it would hinder her ability to move/act, but it wouldn’t stop her, whereas a normal ninja might freeze up or shut down from the pain.

Bet You Didn’t See That Coming [Speed SA]
A byproduct of her enhanced endurance, Sora (despite what many would think) dislikes being injured- and with that dislike comes the intense desire to avoid getting hurt, a desire that has pushed her to hone her body until it could move faster than most others of her rank. In short, Sora is fast- very, very fast.

POWAH! UNLIMITED POWAH!! [Chakra Reserves SA]
After a lifetime of utilizing nearly every ounce of chakra in her body just to survive, Sora’s chakra reserves have expanded a considerable amount to compensate- while she’s no Jinchuuriki, her ability to toss out jutsu after jutsu and still have enough chakra to keep going is quite remarkable, a testament to just how much of the stuff she actually has.

I Am Not Left-Handed [Kenjutsu Mastery SA]
Sora is not merely a Kenjutsu specialist- she is a master when it comes to the art of the sword; after over two decades of training, her skills are unrivaled within Kirigakure, falling short only to the Seven Swordsman themselves… some of them, anyway. This mastery allows her a distinct advantage when fighting other Bukijutsu specialists of similar or lesser rank.

If You Try For Speed, You Do Not Achieve Speed [Bukijutsu Speed SA]
Beyond being a master of Kenjutsu, Sora has practiced for decades to become the faster swordswoman she can be. As such, her Kenjutsu techniques come out faster and move quicker than those performed by others of her rank.

Equipment: Samidare | Spring Rain Blade (Drawn)
SA’s
Unbreakable
Whatever metal and forging process was used in the creation of Samidare, it worked; Samidare is utterly unbreakable by most any means, capable of being engulfed in an S-Rank Jutsu and remaining unscathed. Though it is possible that the blade could potentially be broken by a sufficiently powerful attack (such as, say, a Bijuu-dama), this has never been tested, so it is not known if it would survive.

Sharper Than Your Average Blade
Due to its nature as an unbreakable blade, Samidare bears a cutting edge that is of particular note, which allows it to slice through even steel with little in the way of resistance, so long as the proper force is applied. Additionally, this edge never needs to be resharpened, as it never grows dull or rolls, thus making it perfect for frontline combat.

Light as Spring Rain
Perhaps a quirk of its forging (or perhaps an intentional feature), Samidare is considerably lighter than a blade its size and length ought to be; while this would normally result in a less effective weapon, Samidare loses none of its integrity or cutting power, as it is somehow able to leverage the same amount of force through less mass. This lightness allows the user to swing the weapon about with much greater speed for the same amount of physical exertion.

Chakra Conduction
Being Chakra Conductive, Samidare is capable of channeling all types of Chakra for use in Bukijustu, and, more particularly, it has a slight affinity for Raiton chakra thanks to Sora’s constant use of the blade for that purpose. This affinity does not do anything of real note, but it does feel as if the blade were more eager to drink in Raiton Chakra than other types.

Inei wasn’t one to put much value into views. Ogling how pretty a landscape was seemed like a waste of time. But even he could admit that the strip of coastline he had chosen for the duel was picturesque, in the harsh, unforgiving sort of way.
[break][break]
Of course, said view was being ruined by the women standing among the landscape. Sora seemed determined to piss Inei off by showing up early. She must have been waiting a decent amount of time, given the windswept look she was sporting. The sun had barely just begun to crest over the horizon, so she had just been waiting for him in the dark. How idiotic.
[break][break]
Refusing to meet her gaze for the moment, Inei strode over to the edge of the strip of rocky land to look out on the craggy sea and breath in the sharp morning air and feel the salty spray from the ocean’s waves. With a serene smile on his face, Inei drew the Kiba from their holsters, one in each hand, and struck them against each other, sparks flying.
[break][break]
Yes, he was showboating. No, he didn’t care if it was immature. He lifted one of the hooked swords, leveling it at Sora.
[break][break]
"I issued the challenge to you, so you may name the terms of the duel." It was only polite, after all.
[break][break]
It wouldn’t be a death match, as much as he would love to be rid of the woman, too much of a bureaucratic hassle if one of them killed the other. Nor would it be to first blood, they were both too skilled and had too much anger to work out to stop after that. First to yield or go unconscious seemed like it would be the best way to go, but Inei was leaving the decision in Sora’s hands.

Sora watched Inei showboat with a look of utter calm. It was not the calm of peace, but of violence, the calm of a sailor in the midst of a storm, knowing not if he might escape, but having to try. His movements, his mannerisms, everything down to the way he held his blades was taken in by her gaze- and found severely wanting. And today, we prove it.

"Whoever yields first, or is knocked unconscious, loses." She paused, standing on her rock as she drew Samidare, the weapon at her side in a loose, one-handed grip as she said, almost reverently, "Winner has the right to keep the loser’s weapon. Or weapons, in your case." The Jounin gave Inei a smile then, full of soft condescension and faux pity, her voice saccharine sweet as she laughed.

"Unless you’re afraid to lose your special toys, of course. I’d accept a simple forfeit then." He couldn’t do that though, not if he wanted to keep his seat. He would have to fight now, fight and win if he wanted his dignity to remain intact. And she knew he would. His pride as a Kuronmeru, as swordsman, and as a Ninja wouldn’t allow anything else.

"Well?" Sora asked, looking down at her opponent, her face split in a knowing grin that, in all likelihood, would infuriate the Special Jounin to his very core. "You going to keep me waiting?"

Just as he expected, she chose yielding or unconsciousness as the decisive factor for their battle. Inei’s smile grew and he nodded, flashing the Kiba against each other again. Then Sora put bigger stakes on their fight, proffering the sword of the loser to the sword of the winner.
[break][break]
Inei had no allusions that this would be a difficult fight, but his mangled psyche wouldn’t allow him to even fathom losing, so he had no fear of giving up the Kiba. As for the Samidare, he didn’t want the stupid sword, had no use for it when he had the Kiba, but it would make a pretty trophy for him to display.
[break][break]
"If you value your sword so little as to offer it as a prize, far be it from me to accept." He offered her back a smile that was just as saccharine.
[break][break]
She was trying to infuriate him still by acting aloof, but it was just making him feel more confident about his own skills, if she felt the need to get under his skin. It means he was already under hers. He shifted his stance as she continued to taunt and readied for combat.
[break][break]
Very well, no more talk.
[break][break]
Chakra flooded his system and Inei rushed forwards at top speed. As he got near Sora, light would flood the Kiba and flash out with insane brightness, aiming to blind or disorient the woman. Then he would close in, feinting, not one or two times, but seven, striking out wide with the swords. But as the hooks neared Sora, lightning would spark along the blades and arc off to slice into the woman with each false pass.

The first swings were in and the die was cast.

  • 『Blood of the Kuronmeru』
    As an inheritor of the Kuronmeru's bloodline, Inei's veins run black with the dark, thick ichor. He was born to become a powerful member of the family and over the years he has learned to manipulate his blood on par with the masters of the clan. He can bend, move and shape, the blood to his desire, almost as if the blood were alive itself. He is also capable of hardening the blood to form weapons, projectiles, and other shapes. Because of his genetics, Inei's blood regenerates at a much higher rate than the average person, thus making his blood a deadly weapon.
  • 『Exquisite Control』
    Practicing from the moment he learned he could manipulate chakra, Inei has become quiet proficient in controlling the usage of his chakra. Not born with vast stores, and being interested in the medical field, he had to learn how to perfectly utilize every bit of energy, not wasting a single bit on frivolous, showy techniques. The utilization and skill at control allows for him to trump those who don't put time and energy in studying how little energy a technique truly needs. His ability to use chakra without wasting any allows him to function on a level as those born with deeper chakra stores than him.
  • 『Medical Scientist』
    Initially learned as a curiosity and continued on as a passion, Inei learned to understand the body, its mechanics, medicine, and ways to apply it from a young age. Training day in and day out, in order to learn techniques to further his experimentations and bolster his deadliness on the field, he is quite knowledgeable in the medicinal field. The knowledge he has gained over the years allows him a greater understanding of medical techniques both healing and harmful and allows him to use his techniques with practiced ease compared to those of lesser talent.
  • 『The Mad Genius』
    It is no secret that Inei is incredibly intelligent and that his mind is a dangerous weapon. His IQ is nothing to be taken lightly, even with his odd behavior. He possesses incredible mental capacity, is able to concentrate even in the heat of battle, can calculate things in his head with great speed, and is able to remember many things with perfect recollection. He is capable of analyzing and memorizing an opponent's fighting style and determining the best ways to counteract against them. It’s incredibly difficult to deceive the man, especially if one is not skilled at lying. He is highly alert and analytical, and is capable of thinking outside of the box. Moreover, Inei can formulate numerous plans to certain situations in mere moments. He thinks numerous steps ahead, and always has a back up plan.

Sora didn’t reply to Inei’s taunt, her grip on Samidare firming as she readied for his attack. There were no more words to be said between them, no more jabs or barbs. Whatever the boy had left to say could be done with his blades… or not at all.

He’ll come in quick. The Jounin thought as Inei tensed- and she was immediately proven right as he rocketed forwards rather quickly, clearly using the Kasoku Soru technique to accelerate to his maximum speed in a single step. Unfortunately for the Kuronemeru, he wasn’t the only one who knew that particular technique… and she was far, far faster than he was when using it. Flooding her legs with chakra, Sora leapt to her left, immediately surrendering the high ground as she shot off at top speed, utterly evading his combination.

Sora wasn’t gone long though, spooling Fuuton chakra into Samidare and molding it on the fly into a thin, perfect Hien that extended her blade’s reach by a half a meter as she came at Inei from the side and brought her blade up in a powerful, two-handed slash that had the full momentum of her charge behind it. It likely wouldn’t get through the Kuronmeru’s defenses, but it wasn’t meant to. She had thought about this fight, about what she wanted to do, how she wanted to handle it… and how badly she wanted to humiliate the boy before it was over.

Time to show you how a real swordsman fights, boy.



Jutsu/SA's/Equipment Used
Jutsu:
NAME: Kasoku Suru [Accelerate]
RANK: C
CHAKRA USAGE: Very Low
CLASSIFICATION: Taijutsu
ELEMENT: -
HANDSEALS: 0
DESCRIPTION: A very simple technique, by using chakra the user is able to instantly accelerate their selves to their max speed. This can be done in just about any condition, but any techniques that slow the user's movement (such as armor from jutsu or most jutsu that might slow an individual) will still affect them.

NAME: Hien - [Flying Swallow]
RANK: B
CHAKRA USAGE: Low
CLASSIFICATION: Bukijutsu
ELEMENT: N/a
DESCRIPTION: The user funnels their chakra into a blade which can absorb chakra easily. The materialized chakra is shaped like a blade whose length can change with the right chakra control. The chakra is dense enough that it becomes visible and can cut through solid rock and iron. What makes this jutsu so versatile is that one can apply elemental chakra into it, which can greatly change the effects of the technique.

Special Abilities:
The Kunoichi That Goes On And On And On… [Endurance SA]
Perhaps part of her genetics or simply a random quirk of fate, Sora is unnaturally resilient, be it to physical pain or the toils of extended combat. While most Shinobi would collapse in exhaustion at having used all but the smallest sliver of their chakra reserves, she pushes on; while most Shinobi would wilt beneath the weight of sleepless night after sleepless night, she keeps going. This does not mean she does not feel pain/the strain of extended combat, but rather that her threshold for shutting down because of it is far higher than others. To give an example, if she were to be stabbed through her abdomen, she would still feel the pain of the injury, and it would hinder her ability to move/act, but it wouldn’t stop her, whereas a normal ninja might freeze up or shut down from the pain.

Bet You Didn’t See That Coming [Speed SA]
A byproduct of her enhanced endurance, Sora (despite what many would think) dislikes being injured- and with that dislike comes the intense desire to avoid getting hurt, a desire that has pushed her to hone her body until it could move faster than most others of her rank. In short, Sora is fast- very, very fast.

POWAH! UNLIMITED POWAH!! [Chakra Reserves SA]
After a lifetime of utilizing nearly every ounce of chakra in her body just to survive, Sora’s chakra reserves have expanded a considerable amount to compensate- while she’s no Jinchuuriki, her ability to toss out jutsu after jutsu and still have enough chakra to keep going is quite remarkable, a testament to just how much of the stuff she actually has.

I Am Not Left-Handed [Kenjutsu Mastery SA]
Sora is not merely a Kenjutsu specialist- she is a master when it comes to the art of the sword; after over two decades of training, her skills are unrivaled within Kirigakure, falling short only to the Seven Swordsman themselves… some of them, anyway. This mastery allows her a distinct advantage when fighting other Bukijutsu specialists of similar or lesser rank.

Beyond being a master of Kenjutsu, Sora has practiced for decades to become the faster swordswoman she can be. As such, her Kenjutsu techniques come out faster and move quicker than those performed by others of her rank.

Equipment: Samidare | Spring Rain Blade (Drawn)
SA’s
Unbreakable
Whatever metal and forging process was used in the creation of Samidare, it worked; Samidare is utterly unbreakable by most any means, capable of being engulfed in an S-Rank Jutsu and remaining unscathed. Though it is possible that the blade could potentially be broken by a sufficiently powerful attack (such as, say, a Bijuu-dama), this has never been tested, so it is not known if it would survive.

Sharper Than Your Average Blade
Due to its nature as an unbreakable blade, Samidare bears a cutting edge that is of particular note, which allows it to slice through even steel with little in the way of resistance, so long as the proper force is applied. Additionally, this edge never needs to be resharpened, as it never grows dull or rolls, thus making it perfect for frontline combat.

Light as Spring Rain
Perhaps a quirk of its forging (or perhaps an intentional feature), Samidare is considerably lighter than a blade its size and length ought to be; while this would normally result in a less effective weapon, Samidare loses none of its integrity or cutting power, as it is somehow able to leverage the same amount of force through less mass. This lightness allows the user to swing the weapon about with much greater speed for the same amount of physical exertion.

Chakra Conduction
Being Chakra Conductive, Samidare is capable of channeling all types of Chakra for use in Bukijustu, and, more particularly, it has a slight affinity for Raiton chakra thanks to Sora’s constant use of the blade for that purpose. This affinity does not do anything of real note, but it does feel as if the blade were more eager to drink in Raiton Chakra than other types.

Sora was quick on her feet, just as Inei was. She quickly sidestepped his flurry of blows before it could do any damage. The tokubetsu whirled around to follow her and as she came back at him with her own charge, he brought both of the Kiba up to catch the blade, skidding back against the stones a few inches from the force of the blow.
[break][break]
As his hands tightened around the hilts of the Kiba, fighting against the lengthened blade, he felt the sharp points of his jietai pierce into the skin of his palm, blood beginning to seep out and get on the hilts.
[break][break]
His teeth grit together, but his smile remained. Biting the inside of his cheek, he felt the viscous black blood fill his mouth and he spat it out at her face, willing the splotch to grow larger and make it harder for her to move out of the way of it. Blood from the attack would splatter against the Kiba’s blades, thick substance dripping down. Then he would strike out a foot to kick at Sora’s middle, to knock air from her or force her to back up.
[break][break]
If she would move back, he would arc the sword forward in a slash at her abdomen, not caring if she backed up even more, because the blood covering the blades would fly forward in a shower of black senbon. He would keep close, using the distraction of the senbon, and swing the second Kiba up in an underhand arc, aiming for Sora’s upper body.
[break][break]
If she somehow managed to counter the second strike, blood would fly from the blade in more senbon, this time aimed at her face. It could easily be a lethal blow, but he would be beyond disappointed if she was taken out so soon into their bout.

SAs Active
  • 『Blood of the Kuronmeru』
    As an inheritor of the Kuronmeru's bloodline, Inei's veins run black with the dark, thick ichor. He was born to become a powerful member of the family and over the years he has learned to manipulate his blood on par with the masters of the clan. He can bend, move and shape, the blood to his desire, almost as if the blood were alive itself. He is also capable of hardening the blood to form weapons, projectiles, and other shapes. Because of his genetics, Inei's blood regenerates at a much higher rate than the average person, thus making his blood a deadly weapon.
  • 『Exquisite Control』
    Practicing from the moment he learned he could manipulate chakra, Inei has become quiet proficient in controlling the usage of his chakra. Not born with vast stores, and being interested in the medical field, he had to learn how to perfectly utilize every bit of energy, not wasting a single bit on frivolous, showy techniques. The utilization and skill at control allows for him to trump those who don't put time and energy in studying how little energy a technique truly needs. His ability to use chakra without wasting any allows him to function on a level as those born with deeper chakra stores than him.
  • 『Medical Scientist』
    Initially learned as a curiosity and continued on as a passion, Inei learned to understand the body, its mechanics, medicine, and ways to apply it from a young age. Training day in and day out, in order to learn techniques to further his experimentations and bolster his deadliness on the field, he is quite knowledgeable in the medicinal field. The knowledge he has gained over the years allows him a greater understanding of medical techniques both healing and harmful and allows him to use his techniques with practiced ease compared to those of lesser talent.
  • 『The Mad Genius』
    It is no secret that Inei is incredibly intelligent and that his mind is a dangerous weapon. His IQ is nothing to be taken lightly, even with his odd behavior. He possesses incredible mental capacity, is able to concentrate even in the heat of battle, can calculate things in his head with great speed, and is able to remember many things with perfect recollection. He is capable of analyzing and memorizing an opponent's fighting style and determining the best ways to counteract against them. It’s incredibly difficult to deceive the man, especially if one is not skilled at lying. He is highly alert and analytical, and is capable of thinking outside of the box. Moreover, Inei can formulate numerous plans to certain situations in mere moments. He thinks numerous steps ahead, and always has a back up plan.

age 33 years old birthday December 23rd rank Jounin occupation Genin Team 1 Leader
Sora’s blade met Inei’s, Fuuton chakra clashing with steel as the Kuronmeru grit was forced to brace both Kiba against her cut, only to be knocked back several inches. So. She held the edge in strength as well as speed. Good. That would make things much easier. The man didn’t take her assault lying down, spitting a blot of black blood at her face that rapidly expanded into a small but dangerous threat. The pink-haired Jounin moved, Fuuton exploding through her feet as she used Wind Step to shoot off to her right, twisting out of the way of both the spitting move and Inei’s first cut, only to meet the second blow with her Hien-lengthened weapon in a rising, one-handed diagonal, left to right, that allowed her to flow into and around the blow.

Samidare surged with Fuuton as she swung, exploding in a current of wind that threw the Kuronmeru’s black-blood senbon’s back in his face with the sheer force of the wind which, when combined with her block, would likely throw the boy off balance. And that single off-balance moment was all she needed; Sora brought her weapon down, its lightness and her own mastery aiding in the speed of the strike, Fuuton bursting from its length as she slashed along the same line as before, right to left, going down, the blow enhanced to dangerous levels by her chakra. Not enough to kill, but certainly maim- if Inei didn’t find a way out, of course.



Jutsu/SA's/Equipment Used
Jutsu:
NAME: Kazesanpo [Wind walk]
RANK: B
CHAKRA USAGE: Low
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu
ELEMENT: Wind
DESCRIPTION:
The blade is only as deadly as its reach, so maneuvering around the battlefield is important to a swordsman, in order to get close to the target, or avoid attacks. By channeling wind chakra into their feet, the user is able to swiftly run, so quickly that to the naked eye it seems like a blur.

NAME: Hien - [Flying Swallow]
RANK: B
CHAKRA USAGE: Low
CLASSIFICATION: Bukijutsu
ELEMENT: N/a
DESCRIPTION: The user funnels their chakra into a blade which can absorb chakra easily. The materialized chakra is shaped like a blade whose length can change with the right chakra control. The chakra is dense enough that it becomes visible and can cut through solid rock and iron. What makes this jutsu so versatile is that one can apply elemental chakra into it, which can greatly change the effects of the technique.

NAME: Ittoryu: Tatsumaki [One Sword Style: Tornado]
RANK: B
CHAKRA USAGE: Medium
CLASSIFICATION: Bukijutsu
ELEMENT: Fūton
HANDSEALS: 0
DESCRIPTION: The user brings their weapon around in a fast, powerful arc that creates a minor shockwave, disturbing the air and creating a gust of short-lived wind similar in strength to an F2 tornado, which can be felt by anyone within about thirty meters of the swings arc. The winds are strongest close to the user (within 5 meters), and are capable of knocking senbon, kunai, and shuriken off course, and even lifting people off their feet should they be caught unawares.

NAME: Ittoryu: Ryuurei Fusagu [One Sword Style: Flowing Block]
RANK: D
STAMINA USAGE: Very Low
CLASSIFICATION: Bukijutsu
ELEMENT: N/a
HANDSEALS: N/a
DESCRIPTION: Less a set technique and more a way of utilizing one’s weapon to the fullest, Ryuurei Fusagu is designed around one core concept- the art of "flowing,” like water, around an attack in order to open up new angles and create opening in an opponent’s defenses that would not naturally be there if you stand against them face to face. To this end, the steps of the technique are rather simple: the user brings their weapon up to deflect an opponent’s blow as normal, but steps around the attack rather than holding their ground (without dropping their block), thus deflecting the incoming blow while forcing their enemy into a momentary overextension, opening them up for a counter-strike. Though quite useful, this technique is limited to use in close quarters, and is utterly useless at range.

NAME: Ittoryu: Kaesu [One Sword Style: Retaliation]
RANK: C
STAMINA USAGE: Low
CLASSIFICATION: Bukijutsu
ELEMENT: N/a
HANDSEALS: N/a
DESCRIPTION: A technique meant to be used immediately after successfully blocking/deflecting an attack, Kaesu relies on the user’s speed and focus in order to land an attack. After successfully blocking/deflecting a blow from an opponent (at close range), the user strikes out with a rapid cut/thrust made by the opening created by their block, making it that much harder to deal with the attack in question. This technique is limited in its use, being utterly useless against ranged attacks.

NAME: Ittoryu: Oni Giri [One Sword Style: Demon Slash]
RANK: B
CHAKRA USAGE: Medium
CLASSIFICATION: Bukijutsu
ELEMENT: Fuuton
HANDSEALS: 0
PREREQUISITE: Chakra Conductive/Fuuton Reactive Blade
DESCRIPTION: A technique wherein the user rapidly channels Fuuton chakra into their blade the moment before a strike is meant to land, increasing the attacks cutting power without altering an enemy to the fact, as the attack itself will have already been launched. Should the enhanced cut land, it is capable of dealing deep rends in a person’s flesh, severing limbs at the joints, and even cutting through chainmail.

Special Abilities:
The Kunoichi That Goes On And On And On… [Endurance SA]
Perhaps part of her genetics or simply a random quirk of fate, Sora is unnaturally resilient, be it to physical pain or the toils of extended combat. While most Shinobi would collapse in exhaustion at having used all but the smallest sliver of their chakra reserves, she pushes on; while most Shinobi would wilt beneath the weight of sleepless night after sleepless night, she keeps going. This does not mean she does not feel pain/the strain of extended combat, but rather that her threshold for shutting down because of it is far higher than others. To give an example, if she were to be stabbed through her abdomen, she would still feel the pain of the injury, and it would hinder her ability to move/act, but it wouldn’t stop her, whereas a normal ninja might freeze up or shut down from the pain.

Bet You Didn’t See That Coming [Speed SA]
A byproduct of her enhanced endurance, Sora (despite what many would think) dislikes being injured- and with that dislike comes the intense desire to avoid getting hurt, a desire that has pushed her to hone her body until it could move faster than most others of her rank. In short, Sora is fast- very, very fast.

POWAH! UNLIMITED POWAH!! [Chakra Reserves SA]
After a lifetime of utilizing nearly every ounce of chakra in her body just to survive, Sora’s chakra reserves have expanded a considerable amount to compensate- while she’s no Jinchuuriki, her ability to toss out jutsu after jutsu and still have enough chakra to keep going is quite remarkable, a testament to just how much of the stuff she actually has.

I Am Not Left-Handed [Kenjutsu Mastery SA]
Sora is not merely a Kenjutsu specialist- she is a master when it comes to the art of the sword; after over two decades of training, her skills are unrivaled within Kirigakure, falling short only to the Seven Swordsman themselves… some of them, anyway. This mastery allows her a distinct advantage when fighting other Bukijutsu specialists of similar or lesser rank.

If You Try For Speed, You Do Not Achieve Speed [Bukijutsu Speed SA]
Beyond being a master of Kenjutsu, Sora has practiced for decades to become the faster swordswoman she can be. As such, her Kenjutsu techniques come out faster and move quicker than those performed by others of her rank.
