[Uzumaki Ataru]

As they made it out to the other side, he would take another bite of their stick of multi-colored Dango consuming the second ball of three pierced along the skewer. Looking at Kazui as he explained and broke down the various places in the surrounding area, wondering where their path might lead next given her general goals and wishes for the day. Despite taking charge in leading them forth he still respected her role as an instructor, wanting to see what she had in mind or store for them. They had managed well together in parsing through the crowds, deciding their outing proved a welcome change of pace and break from both studies as well as training.

He wasn't too hung up on whatever they'd end up doing… Listening to and hearing them out as she spoke, he would pay attention to the context of her words while observing their environment. "Well then, what're we gonna be doing today Sensei?!" Gazing up at her as she looked away with a discerning eye at the area about them, swearing that they witnessed a crimson streak. Choosing to follow along the line of their focus, he would turn his head to see a man appear from a packed nest of passersby. Upon witnessing the purse snatcher Ataru immediately leaps into action withdrawing the warmth of his hand holding onto Kazuki's, even dropping the snack he holds onto in the other letting it fall into the dirt path beneath foot. "We can't let him get away. I've got this!"

He speaks with complete and utter conviction, as if there was nothing else to do but stop him. The boy's altruistic and good natured side shining through in these next moments. Two practice Shuriken would find their way into his hands and a loop of dull wire would come immediately looped and tied off through the openings inside their empty center connecting them together. Jumping up onto the high ground, he leaps like a monkey, showcasing a degree of deft fluidity and clear practice as he lands on top of a stall roof with grace. Waiting until the culprit is about to get to an opening he times the shot and sends his impromptu bola flying in a crescent-like motion. Not bothering to call out or scream at them to stop, in an effort not to tip them off or show his hand. His aim was good and it appeared like the weapon would wrap about the thief's legs and send them sprawling straight into the ground.

[Lady Kazui]

Don’t just weather the storm.
Dance in it.

❧

As the clone zipped past the student and mentor duo, the cloaked individual could be heard laughing as if they knew no one was brave enough to step in their way. A look of shock was Kazui’s initial response but quickly turned into awe as Ataru promptly and selfishly leapt into action - even without a direct order from Kazui herself. It was a win-lose, he was eager to help which was outstanding but acted under his own lead. Regardless, as the boy dashed into action, the raven herself simply caught the Dango before it came close to hitting the ground and followed in suit behind the Uzumaki - a gleeful look on her face as she "chased” behind the boy.

Up ahead the cloaked individual would weave through the villagers, purse still in tow as they ran with a purpose. Ataru wasn’t too far behind. The boy showcased a great aptitude when it came to being a shinobi, he was quick on his feet and quick on his mind as well. As he leapt onto the roof of a vendor's stall, the Uzumaki watched closely until the individual was in the clear and launched his impromptu bola towards the culprit's legs.

Wrapping the individual up and sending them flying for a brief second as they tripped up and crashed into the earth, rolling across the dirt floor like tumbleweed in a ghost town. It was all over seemingly just as fast as it started…

That is until the cloaked thief dissipated into a flock of rowdy crows and quickly reassembled themselves onto the rooftops adjacent to Ataru, purse still in their grasp as they dangled the bag by the straps - taunting the student. "I know you can do better than that, kid.” They spoke, followed by a menacing laugh. If Ataru looked closely, he would see that the individual bore a red and white mask while a long black ponytail flowed down the back of a similar stature and build to that of a lady whom he may or may not have gotten used to.

Regardless, the thief would make haste yet again before anything could be pieced together. This time skipping from rooftop to rooftop effortlessly as they sought to escape the persistent trail of the Uzumaki.

Always Passively Active:
NAME: Kagura Shingan [Kagura Mind's Eye]
RANK: A
CHAKRA USAGE: Very Low
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu // Hijutsu
ELEMENT: N/a
DESCRIPTION:
This ability allows the user to find, sense, and track individuals through their chakra over vast range that exceeds ten kilometers. This is done by focusing and opening the mind's eye, though due to the low chakra cost many users keep it active often. The ability also extends to telling when a person is lying from the fluctuations in a person's chakra made from dishonest emotions or detecting if someone, including the user, is under a genjutsu. Also by focusing on a particular chakra, the user can perceive its location and movement with great detail.

Little Know It All - Extreme Intelligence
It was no secret that Kazui was regarded as a scholar when she was in the academy. One of the smartest in her class, the Uchiha often found herself correcting and/or helping out people older than herself. Many considered her very intellectual then, but that was just only the surface of her potential. Now, the girl is regarded as a genius, her IQ is nothing to be taken lightly or to be taken for granted, even as a young chunin. The teen possesses amazing mental capacity, is able to concentrate flawlessly even in the heat of battle, can calculate things in her head with great speed, and is able to remember many things with perfect recollection, even if it’s just useless information that is meant to be disregarded. In addition to that, Kazui is very deductive, competent, and witted. Her mind is the most dangerous weapon she possesses for many reasons. The girl is highly alert, aware, and very analytical, and she is also very ingenious and is capable of thinking outside of the box as well. Not only is she capable of reading, analyzing, and breaking down a person’s fighting style, but she can also determine what kind of person they are just by the way they speak, the way they carry themselves, and their thoughts on certain things. While doing this, it’s incredibly difficult to deceive the girl, especially if one is not skilled in the art of deception. Furthermore, Kazui can formulate numerous plans to certain situations in mere seconds. She thinks 10 steps ahead, and always has a back up plan just incase.

Gone In The Wind - Blistering Speed
As a child, Kazui was born weaker than others. Her health conditions set the girl at a disadvantage physically since birth, however her constant effort and drive to become the best has pushed her far beyond many others the same rank as herself. Her speed is nothing to be taken lightly, she has pushed herself physically to be able to not only outpace her opponent, but outright force them into keeping up with her and pushing them to the brink with her speed as well. The girl is fast, quick, and agile, even rivaling those who dedicated their entire life to the art of taijutsu to the point where if they haven’t specifically honed their speed, then the girl could outright outclass them in that regard. Those with weak perception often have trouble perceiving the girl’s movements, and to a normal human’s eye perceiving her is nigh impossible. All of her movements are inhumanly quick and hard to keep track of, and when used in conjunction with her sharingan, it can make her a formidable opponent for even the strongest of shinobi.

The Minimalist - Chakra Control
There was a problem that Kazui noticed during her time in the academy and that was the fact that she often found herself tiring out and exhausting herself rather quickly, even when she had just started she could feel herself beginning to wilt. So to counter those measures, the girl studied and asked around, trying to find the reason behind it and if there was a way she could fix it. She wasn’t born with massive reserves so while she utilized her justus, she often did so wastefully. But now, the girl has managed to control the amount of chakra she uses in a technique that allows her to fight much longer than before. She uses the absolute bare minimum of the chakra that’s needed, and not a drop more.

Uchiha Bloodline: Two Tomoe Sharingan
Being born within the Uchiha clan, Kazui has been blessed and/or cursed with a power that only an Uchiha can possess and use to its complete and full potential when they have experienced extreme emotions that causes their chakra to pour into their optic nerves, gifting them with the Sharingan, also known as the eyes that reflect the heart. There are three stages to the sharingan, and it is tracked by the amount of tomoe that appears around an Uchiha’s pupil. One tomoe unlocks the eye of insight, it grants the user the ability to see chakra within an opponent or ally and it also gives an increase to the user’s perceptive abilities. Two tomoe grants the user the eye of hypnotism, while in turn increasing the previous abilities that the ‘Eye of Insight’ grants. The girl’s precognition and perception is heightened well beyond what’s achievable by even the most skilled and elite shinobi, allowing her more of a predictive insight on her opponent as well as the world around her. In terms of her being able to track extremely fast objects and people alike, the eye also allows a natural reactive ability that helps her respond more accurately than a single tomoe could ever allow. As for the ability to see chakra, with a second tomoe the smallest and most faint sources of chakra can easily be spotted by the eye without any issue at all. Assigning color and analyzing the flow of the chakra, Kazui can tell which nature is going to be used as well as where the chakra will be coming from.

The Eye of Hypnotism on the other hand is much different than the previous eye, it allows the girl the ability to cast and break genjutsu with no issue at all, in a way only the Uchiha are capable of. It also gives her access to a set of genjutsu only known to those who possess great visual prowess amongst the clan. These illusions are very powerful in nature and are some of the most dangerous known to the art, they are well beyond standard genjutsu, and in addition the illusions can be casted with just a single glare. Those who met her gaze will find themselves under her spell before they can even realize what happened.

Tiny Dancer - Elusiveness
Kazui is one quick girl, which isn’t hard to tell. Thanks to her training, the girl has amazing agility and reflexes that allow her to keep herself out of harms way. Even without her sharingan being active, Kazui possesses sharp perceptive abilities and reflexes that allows her to become an escape artist of some sort as well as a complete nuisance to those trying to fight her. The girl’s reaction speed is superb and not to be taken lightly as it is, however, when the dojutsu is active, taking into account the girl’s great speed and adding her keen reflexes into the mix, it’s capabilities are much more potent and useful to the Uchiha. With this, not only is Kazui capable of keeping track of even the most renowned speediest opponents and attacks, the girl is able to keep up with, and react to them as well with relative ease.

Wake Up To Reality - KME Genjutsu Prowess
As an Uchiha it is believed that Kazui and many of her clanmen were born with a natural affinity for the art of genjutsu, but of course none of it can ever come to fruition if there is no effort placed behind it. However, since she was constantly reminded by those around her about that fact, the girl began to focus on the art more than ever before.

Although her illusions do become much more elaborate, less flawed in a certain sense, and stronger, the true results come more in the form of defending herself against genjutsu. Her vast knowledge of the art as well as her training and extremely high sensory capabilities allow for the Uchiha’s escape efforts to be significantly stronger than it normally is, allowing her to free herself from genjutsu up to 1 rank above what she is typically capable of via the special ability granted to the Uchiha with The Sharingan’s genjutsu escape. It should be noted however that genjutsu reversal does not receive any additional boosts from this ability.

Sleight of Hand - Seals Master
As Kazui grew older and gained more experience and familiarity with the ninja arts, the girl’s chakra control had essentially been mastered along with her speed and accuracy with forming hand-seals. Countless of hours spent training, learning, and even creating new jutsu has made the girl grow familiar with every seal needed to perform any jutsu, every motion for every combination, her body absorbed and memorized - allowing her to flow through the motions with no given thought or effort. Her speed with forming these seals is insanely quick and precise, she’s even capable of stringing together the lengthiest combinations of hand seals and casting jutsu faster than most can even dream of keeping up with, making it appear as if she hadn’t even tried to use any hand-seals to begin with. Her vast knowledge and familiarity with sealing in addition to her refined chakra control has lead her to being able to utilize only a single hand to form a seal as well, though she only does this under certain circumstances.

[Uzumaki Ataru]

Frowning at the cloaked individual as he laughed uproariously, he couldn't help but think what kinda person would do something like this and of all things end up laughing about it. Deciding implicitly that he wouldn't let him get away with it, he spun the bola in a winding motion above their head and sent it careening forth toward the target as they made their escape. Timing it exceptionally well, it had its intended effect of wrapping about their legs and sending them tumbling into the ground. While some might smile or take a measure of satisfaction in a job well done, Ataru didn't instead he focuses on seeing what might happen next. He wouldn't be caught unprepared again and this was Konoha after all, the birthplace of some of the finest Shinobi in the world.

It wasn't out of the realm of possibility for a good egg to break bad, especially here in his home. Watching as they tumble across the floor in a blur of tripped up motion. As he blinks away into a flock of crows he calls down to Kazui with a normal pitch of voice levying a calm, even laced tone and possessed of a confident gait. "We can't let him get away! I'm going after them Kazui Sensei, can you go around and cut them off?" Explaining his intent before jumping headlong into a chase, he also provided a plan to catch them essentially that of formulating a pinscher. One where Ataru would push the mouse towards a waiting trap if not outright subduing them on their own.

And suddenly, like a trained gymnast as the mocking statement came echoing forth from derisive lips he was flipping up into the air scaling the sheer face of the building like a spastic spider monkey. Moving with deft fluidity and an unnerving grace, he would land atop the roof and pursue the purse snatcher but not before giving a finger salute to Kazui in the direction he intended to push them showing he held a level of trust in her even as he departed without much more notice given. Trailing the criminal, he would follow with ceaseless dogged effort tossing practice Shuriken and Kunai to redirect him on a path toward where if Kazui would naturally skirt around she could intecept him.

Making it seem like his actions were somewhat panicked, random, and rushed, there was a method to his madness as he kept on his heels shouting out in order to distract them from what lay in front of them. Forming a series of hand seals with rapid speed as he neared the precipice of leaping to another adjacent rooftop, he had a solid idea in mind, one that would hopefully turn the tables and perhaps even end or upset their pursuit.

[Lady Kazui]

Don’t just weather the storm.
Dance in it.

❧

Takoyaki in one hand, Dango in the other, all while an entertaining pursuit was underway. It was clear that Kazui was enjoying herself genuinely which was a rare case for her. A slight jog kept her not too far from the action as everything transpired. Leaning against one of the merchant stands, the ravenette watched as her own illusionary clone turned on the jets yet again and took off on the red headed boy. He seemed dedicated, as if his life depended on retrieving said purse. So much so that he even tried to get Kazui herself to help out, not knowing that she was behind it all. A few snickers escaped her breath before she cleared her throat and took on a more serious demeanor as she spoke. "Don’t worry I’m on it!” Her soft voice carried across the immediate area, determination lingering behind her tone, yet she herself simply walked behind the action.

"Sorry kiddo. But this is your show..” Mumbling quietly to herself, the actual Kazui watched closely.

From the rooftops the cloaked clone continued to run, leaping and bouncing from one roof to another. Changing levels ever so often to throw the boys visuals off to a degree. Once the clone reached the highest tower in the village, she came to a screeching halt, stopping just inches from the edge of a water tank. Overlooking the drop, the clone continued to shift her gaze between Ataru and the drop itself. To Ataru it may have seemed as if the person was trapped with no place left to run, but without much hesitation the clone simply fell backwards into rapid freefall, purse still in grasp.

While her descent continued, Kazui’s clone would give Ataru the peace sign before breaking apart into yet another murder of crows. As the crows came together to form the girl’s figure again, the clone took off with haste - making her way into training yard C. Ataru would notice that Kazui herself was no longer anywhere to be found.

The reason for her absence was simple: while Ataru was just giving chase, Kazui had already taken it upon herself to meet the young uzumaki in training yard C before he realized just what was going on. While there, the ravenette bore a mask and a cloak, much like the illusionary figure. She was aware that her time was limited, any moment the boy would come charging through.

[Uzumaki Ataru]

He hadn’t waited on confirmation from Kazui whatsoever, determined not to let the target get away with blatant thievery deciding to chase after them with a singular focus. Breathing in deeply as he sprinted like a bat out of hell, leaping from roof to roof like a man possessed or perhaps a monkey born for such activity. He knew the rooftops of Konoha like the back of his hand, having prepared a Jutsu beforehand he held off on initiating it as they pursued after them a bit further. Hearing her words of affirmation trail after his continuously moving gait, it wasn’t something that Ataru would choose to rely upon given her trouble with the crowds before it was on him to do something about this criminal at least until shown otherwise.

As they changed levels from low to up high, Ataru kept to the high ground preferring a bird's eye view, and biding his time until he saw exactly what he was looking for. A metal grate covering for a chimney, one just the right size subsequently initiating the Kawarimi replacement jutsu. He would appear right before the clone’s very eyes materializing at the same instance that they stepped onto an adjacent roof and within the next moment he dove forward effectively tackling them, "Got you! he would say triumphantly before they fell onto the scathing tile and the person in question would poof out of his grasp in a flock of ravens. "Tch.”

Standing back up immediately his knees hurt somewhat, but the pain didn’t matter to the young boy. He was on a mission, that poor old lady would get back what was stolen from her even if Ataru needed to get banged up and bloody in order to do so. Hot on their heels, the Uzumaki would follow them down into a training yard flipping down in a rather expert manner he would land crouched into a stoop before fluidly rising back up onto his own two feet. He stared down the perpetrator, blowing a gust of air up into his face as he looked upon their shrouded portrait. Realizing she was keeping her identity secret with a mask and clearly skilled by what he observed, there was no doubt that she was a Shinobi or at least somewhat trained in their ways. It wouldn’t do well to underestimate them… and it paid to be prepared, weaving a series of hand seals in advance of the looming fight.

It also didn’t quite make sense, was she an Anbu or some person who needed to make a living by doing something like this? Whatever the excuse, Ataru wouldn’t back down until he was given a reason to, and even then it wasn’t all too likely. "Hand over the bag and give up, now! It’s over, me and my Sensi will stop you if you try and run off again.” It seemed the boy had an altruistic streak, and a sense of justice giving the perpetrator a chance to do the right thing before resorting to confrontation or violence.

[Lady Kazui]

Don’t just weather the storm.
Dance in it.

❧

The ravenette would sell her acting skills to the tee. Just as Ataru entered the training ground, she’d stumble forward and stop herself dead in her tracks as if she had no place to go. Turning, the masked girl remained silent, knowing that if she were to talk she would undoubtedly be figured out. Instead, the ravenette tilted her head at the boy, raising her hand in the process.

The purse remained in her grasp, as it was very real and very much tangible albeit simply the Transformation technique casted over one of the pouches she wore, regardless she continued to taunt the boy without speaking a single word. Dangling the bag by a single finger, Kazui swung it back and forth as if she knew that it would never leave out of her possession. And as the voice of the Uzumaki called out, the ravenette dropped into a fighting stance, gesturing for the boy to bring his A game. The boy had already shown that he had heart, charisma, and the drive of a true shinobi - while also proving that he was adept at the body replacement technique, enough so that he was able to catch her clone off guard. Impressive. However, now he was faced with the actual threat in Kazui herself. How would he fare?

All of her movements are inhumanly quick and hard to keep track of, and when used in conjunction with her sharingan, it can make her a formidable opponent for even the strongest of shinobi.

The Minimalist - Chakra Control
There was a problem that Kazui noticed during her time in the academy and that was the fact that she often found herself tiring out and exhausting herself rather quickly, even when she had just started she could feel herself beginning to wilt. So to counter those measures, the girl studied and asked around, trying to find the reason behind it and if there was a way she could fix it. She wasn’t born with massive reserves so while she utilized her justus, she often did so wastefully. But now, the girl has managed to control the amount of chakra she uses in a technique that allows her to fight much longer than before. She uses the absolute bare minimum of the chakra that’s needed, and not a drop more.

Uchiha Bloodline: Two Tomoe Sharingan
Being born within the Uchiha clan, Kazui has been blessed and/or cursed with a power that only an Uchiha can possess and use to its complete and full potential when they have experienced extreme emotions that causes their chakra to pour into their optic nerves, gifting them with the Sharingan, also known as the eyes that reflect the heart. There are three stages to the sharingan, and it is tracked by the amount of tomoe that appears around an Uchiha’s pupil. One tomoe unlocks the eye of insight, it grants the user the ability to see chakra within an opponent or ally and it also gives an increase to the user’s perceptive abilities. Two tomoe grants the user the eye of hypnotism, while in turn increasing the previous abilities that the ‘Eye of Insight’ grants. The girl’s precognition and perception is heightened well beyond what’s achievable by even the most skilled and elite shinobi, allowing her more of a predictive insight on her opponent as well as the world around her. In terms of her being able to track extremely fast objects and people alike, the eye also allows a natural reactive ability that helps her respond more accurately than a single tomoe could ever allow. As for the ability to see chakra, with a second tomoe the smallest and most faint sources of chakra can easily be spotted by the eye without any issue at all. Assigning color and analyzing the flow of the chakra, Kazui can tell which nature is going to be used as well as where the chakra will be coming from.

The Eye of Hypnotism on the other hand is much different than the previous eye, it allows the girl the ability to cast and break genjutsu with no issue at all, in a way only the Uchiha are capable of. It also gives her access to a set of genjutsu only known to those who possess great visual prowess amongst the clan. These illusions are very powerful in nature and are some of the most dangerous known to the art, they are well beyond standard genjutsu, and in addition the illusions can be casted with just a single glare. Those who met her gaze will find themselves under her spell before they can even realize what happened.

Tiny Dancer - Elusiveness
Kazui is one quick girl, which isn’t hard to tell. Thanks to her training, the girl has amazing agility and reflexes that allow her to keep herself out of harms way. Even without her sharingan being active, Kazui possesses sharp perceptive abilities and reflexes that allows her to become an escape artist of some sort as well as a complete nuisance to those trying to fight her. The girl’s reaction speed is superb and not to be taken lightly as it is, however, when the dojutsu is active, taking into account the girl’s great speed and adding her keen reflexes into the mix, it’s capabilities are much more potent and useful to the Uchiha. With this, not only is Kazui capable of keeping track of even the most renowned speediest opponents and attacks, the girl is able to keep up with, and react to them as well with relative ease.

Wake Up To Reality - KME Genjutsu Prowess
As an Uchiha it is believed that Kazui and many of her clanmen were born with a natural affinity for the art of genjutsu, but of course none of it can ever come to fruition if there is no effort placed behind it. However, since she was constantly reminded by those around her about that fact, the girl began to focus on the art more than ever before.

Although her illusions do become much more elaborate, less flawed in a certain sense, and stronger, the true results come more in the form of defending herself against genjutsu. Her vast knowledge of the art as well as her training and extremely high sensory capabilities allow for the Uchiha’s escape efforts to be significantly stronger than it normally is, allowing her to free herself from genjutsu up to 1 rank above what she is typically capable of via the special ability granted to the Uchiha with The Sharingan’s genjutsu escape. It should be noted however that genjutsu reversal does not receive any additional boosts from this ability.

Sleight of Hand - Seals Master
As Kazui grew older and gained more experience and familiarity with the ninja arts, the girl’s chakra control had essentially been mastered along with her speed and accuracy with forming hand-seals. Countless of hours spent training, learning, and even creating new jutsu has made the girl grow familiar with every seal needed to perform any jutsu, every motion for every combination, her body absorbed and memorized - allowing her to flow through the motions with no given thought or effort. Her speed with forming these seals is insanely quick and precise, she’s even capable of stringing together the lengthiest combinations of hand seals and casting jutsu faster than most can even dream of keeping up with, making it appear as if she hadn’t even tried to use any hand-seals to begin with. Her vast knowledge and familiarity with sealing in addition to her refined chakra control has lead her to being able to utilize only a single hand to form a seal as well, though she only does this under certain circumstances.

[Uzumaki Ataru]

The fiery-haired Uzumaki boy was ready and primed, appearing no less fierce or forgiving than the hue of their vibrant colored hair. Having woven a series of hand seals, keeping the jutsu on standby as the watch-and-wait attitude came to its end as the thief delivered a dare in the form of a taunting gesture. Ataru narrowed his eyes in response taking in a deep breath and exhaling outwardly, amber cast eyes beaming a sheen of gold examining both their foe and surroundings within the next handful of moments.

Materializing a handful of Kunai, each one draped in between the digits of each finger staggering as he would throw them in rapid succession. Two angled at their left flank meant to either strike into their body or make them evade in a particular direction as the third is aimed at their head. Meanwhile, amongst the flurry, the last ninja tool would sail upwards flying on a path to an overhanging tree branch where his target remained stood beneath.

Cutting through the soft bark of the bough held overhead, it would immediately fall towards the head of the culprit. At the exact moment it's about to smack down either atop of or land near them the jutsu would be released enacting the substitution technique; effectively switching places with the branch. Evaporating from the air instantaneously, only to reappear right before her face Ataru would immediately capitalize on the element of surprise taking initiative by employing a taijutsu technique native to the Hyuga.

Following in the footsteps of his muscle-bound Sensei, Ataru grinds his foot into the dirt track leading with his big toe. Using the full strength of their legs, he launches himself forward letting the power travel up from his legs pivoting at the heel before twisting at their hip. He kept his core rigid before fluidly bending into the blow using the inertia of their chest carrying through into the shoulder as his arm distended rapidly forward in a singular powerful motion as the full flow of the technique compounds within their fist.

The strike is meant to levy forth a feeling of shock and awe if it impacts or simply serve as a sufficient distraction as he seeks to rip the purse from their hands before sending them reeling or likewise backing off.

[Lady Kazui]

Don’t just weather the storm.
Dance in it.

❧

Kazui danced slightly as she remained light on her feet. Watching the boy’s moves closely, she could tell that he was taking a moment to observe his surroundings. Smart. The girl was impressed, but wanted to see what he had in store. As he drew a handful of kunai, the ravenette swung the purse rapidly using it almost as if it were an extension of her body.

The two kunai that aimed towards the girls left side were promptly knocked off target as Kazui swung the purse with precision, knocking into the blades and altering their trajectory. Instead they landed with a thud as the blades wedged themselves into the bark of the tree behind her. As for the kunai that was aimed towards her head, the teen simply turned her head and allowed the ninja tool to pass by.

Of course the girl remained vigilant of the fourth kunai he had thrown into the air. Hearing the metal tear through the soft bark alerted the jonin that something was up. As her eyes drifted towards the sky, the branch continued to fall but Kazui was quick and knew that the Uzumaki had something prepared. Catching the branch, the girl felt as the bark shifted in texture and right there the boy appeared. Loading up his strike, he sought to deliver a forceful strike. Without hesitation, the Uchiha reached to catch the student's hand, the two colliding with a thud yet the bag was open - albeit intentionally. If Ataru Truly wanted it was there for the taking but he was still in the girl’s grasp and using her strength and momentum proceeded to swing the little boy around before launching towards the bushes.

NAME: Kagura Shingan [Kagura Mind's Eye]
RANK: A
CHAKRA USAGE: Very Low
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu // Hijutsu
ELEMENT: N/a
DESCRIPTION:
This ability allows the user to find, sense, and track individuals through their chakra over vast range that exceeds ten kilometers. This is done by focusing and opening the mind's eye, though due to the low chakra cost many users keep it active often. The ability also extends to telling when a person is lying from the fluctuations in a person's chakra made from dishonest emotions or detecting if someone, including the user, is under a genjutsu. Also by focusing on a particular chakra, the user can perceive its location and movement with great detail.

Little Know It All - Extreme Intelligence
It was no secret that Kazui was regarded as a scholar when she was in the academy. One of the smartest in her class, the Uchiha often found herself correcting and/or helping out people older than herself. Many considered her very intellectual then, but that was just only the surface of her potential. Now, the girl is regarded as a genius, her IQ is nothing to be taken lightly or to be taken for granted, even as a young chunin. The teen possesses amazing mental capacity, is able to concentrate flawlessly even in the heat of battle, can calculate things in her head with great speed, and is able to remember many things with perfect recollection, even if it’s just useless information that is meant to be disregarded. In addition to that, Kazui is very deductive, competent, and witted. Her mind is the most dangerous weapon she possesses for many reasons. The girl is highly alert, aware, and very analytical, and she is also very ingenious and is capable of thinking outside of the box as well. Not only is she capable of reading, analyzing, and breaking down a person’s fighting style, but she can also determine what kind of person they are just by the way they speak, the way they carry themselves, and their thoughts on certain things. While doing this, it’s incredibly difficult to deceive the girl, especially if one is not skilled in the art of deception. Furthermore, Kazui can formulate numerous plans to certain situations in mere seconds. She thinks 10 steps ahead, and always has a back up plan just incase.

Gone In The Wind - Blistering Speed
As a child, Kazui was born weaker than others. Her health conditions set the girl at a disadvantage physically since birth, however her constant effort and drive to become the best has pushed her far beyond many others the same rank as herself. Her speed is nothing to be taken lightly, she has pushed herself physically to be able to not only outpace her opponent, but outright force them into keeping up with her and pushing them to the brink with her speed as well. The girl is fast, quick, and agile, even rivaling those who dedicated their entire life to the art of taijutsu to the point where if they haven’t specifically honed their speed, then the girl could outright outclass them in that regard. Those with weak perception often have trouble perceiving the girl’s movements, and to a normal human’s eye perceiving her is nigh impossible.

[Uzumaki Ataru]

Watching as the Kunai are deflected, scattering away with a ribbing clang of metal as they skate across each other shortly followed by the dull thump from impacting into wood. Ataru appears in a flash, fist immediately flying forward in a steady performed technique meant to deliver a resounding powerful punch into their cloaked face within the barest moments of closing the distance. He had the element of surprise, but Kazui still managed to anticipate and react. And so instead of retaliating, the boy reaches out, extending a calloused palm holding something just under the sleeve.

Materializing a secret Kunai, he cuts the straps on the purse and lets the blade sail from his grasp towards the nearby tree. Grabbing the purse as it is freed, tracking the swaying motion born from it being hurled around as an impromptu defense against the ninja tools. He feels as his arm is wrenched violently and watches as the thief swings them around like a spinning dreidel before letting go, effectively throwing him. Tossing them towards some nearby bushes, he sails and does his best to prepare for the imminent tumble through brambles.

Rolling with the force and huddling himself through the scathing greenery pressing the purse close as if it were something precious, he crashes through and skims along the ground. Bruised and battered with some scratches to boot, now disengaged though as Kazui follows through and she might look in the direction she sends the boy careening to. She would audibly hear the clang of metal on metal as the Kunai that left his hand, previously used to cut the straps, reflects off the Kunai lodged into the tree and comes flying directly back at them on a clear path of collision about to pierce into her slender frame should she not evade.

[Lady Kazui]

Don’t just weather the storm.
Dance in it.

❧

Kazui had to admit that she admired Ataru’s drive and never say neve attitude, it’s definitely the type of attitude that she liked to see especially in the youth. Not only was he determined, but the little guy was crafty as well - utilizing multiple ways to approach his target. Perhaps sometime down the line, the boy would actually pose a threat to her if they came to blows but the Uzumaki still had a ways to go.

As he cut the straps of the purse and retrieved the bag, the teen used her strength to sling him over her head and into the bushes nearby he’d land with a crunch of the leaves and the thud of his weight colliding with the earth’s floor. Throwing him into the bushes however wasn’t just by coincidence - using the quick cover Kazui moved quickly while Ataru dug his way out of the shrubs of greenery. If he paid attention, once he cut the strap of the bag it would have reverted back into the pouch that it originally was beforehand and not the illusionary pink purse.

His kunai attack would be faltered as well since Kazui didn’t plan on fighting him any longer and simply moved from her last known location, in fact she was approaching the bushes - her hands both simultaneously reached for the cloak and mask she wore and with a tug of each - she’d reveal herself as the culprit this entire time before taking a squatted sitting position in front of the boy.

"Wow..you’re pretty good.” She spoke with a giggle. "Sorry for leading you on a chase and for throwing you like that..” Picking the leaves and grass from his fiery red hair, Kazui gave him a head pat before offering him her hand.

"More often than not a random test will show you quite a bit about a person…it’s safe to say that you passed with flying colors.” A big smile snuck through the woman’s features as she helped the boy up to his feet.

[Uzumaki Ataru]

He brushed off the smattering of leaves and thin film of dirt that stained their body whilst laid out on the ground, using an idle hand before looking down at the former pink purse clutched to their chest. His eyes widening as it turned into a pouch at the same moment he frantically seized it mid-fight before being tossed away with great force. Curving through the air before crashing in a skirting tumble through grass and brush alike, coming through the bramble fine and well all things considered. A few cuts and bruises, no big deal considering what he'd grown accustomed to under Shinde's tutelage. Wincing slightly, he takes a cool measured breath as he dug his way out of the conjoined forest of sticks and greenery spotting the light of Sun and sky above as he came up for breath and to see the area around himself.

Sprouting up like a chipmunk from its hole, he looked left and right Kunai in hand readying to slash the cloaked figure as they dashed inwards closing the distance. Lining up and even posturing to perform a slash with another one set to thrust forward hidden from within their sleeve, that is until she undons the face mask and cloak in a grand reveal, Ataru's brain short circuiting at the sight of Kazui blinking somewhat confused as she giggles and praises the young boy. "Uh.... okay." He managed to stammer out, regaining his sense of self after letting it fully absorb and soak inside his frazzled mind. "Wait, so that was all a test!?!" Speaking with an even calmness and sense of clarity, the answer would come forth as she tussled his hair in a friendly manner and helped to remove the bits of leaves and sticks clung within the mess of fiery red.

As she helps him up he brushes a hand along the front of his clothes as well as across the breadth of their back, cleaning away the bits of forestry that remained latched onto him. "That was cool. I guess you did end up training me today. You're pretty strong, y'know that. One day I'll be as good as you if not better!" He said it in a hopeful manner yet with a resolved determination inflected within his tone. Through this experience Kazui had given them something to live up to, an expectation to meet and succeed if not exceed. Amber gold eyes stare at her full of life and a piercing conviction, followed shortly after by a wide smile. "So , I passed huh? That was fun!" He speaks a bit smugly but also happily at the conclusion of their little exercise.

Lady Kazui

Despite being face to face with a kunai, Kazui managed to laugh through it all. She could only imagine that it was a bit confusing for Ataru however, but being prepared at all times was important. Nonetheless, it seemed as if the boy was a bit excited that he was challenged in such a way. The woman smiled and nodded. "Yup. There was no actual purse being stolen nor was there an elderly lady, it was just an illusion actually.” As she explained this to the uzumaki however she’d go on to pick the leaves and debris from his fiery red hair.

"If you keep it up at this rate, you’ll be leaps and bounds beyond me in no time.” The Uchiha explained with a smile before ruffling the boy's hair one final time to ensure all the dirt would be freed. "Now..why don't we go back and get you another odango? This time it’s on me!” Kazui insisted. It would be her treat after all she put him through, it was the least that the woman could do.

Nevertheless, Kazui eventually led them to a more hidden gem compared to the many other merchants in the shopping district that she remembered from years back. The Drunken Monkey. A place where she used to work, ran by a prominent member of Konoha, Sarutobi Yusuke.

Always Passively Active:
NAME: Kagura Shingan [Kagura Mind's Eye]
RANK: A
CHAKRA USAGE: Very Low
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu // Hijutsu
ELEMENT: N/a
DESCRIPTION:
This ability allows the user to find, sense, and track individuals through their chakra over vast range that exceeds ten kilometers. This is done by focusing and opening the mind's eye, though due to the low chakra cost many users keep it active often. The ability also extends to telling when a person is lying from the fluctuations in a person's chakra made from dishonest emotions or detecting if someone, including the user, is under a genjutsu. Also by focusing on a particular chakra, the user can perceive its location and movement with great detail.

Little Know It All - Extreme Intelligence
It was no secret that Kazui was regarded as a scholar when she was in the academy. One of the smartest in her class, the Uchiha often found herself correcting and/or helping out people older than herself. Many considered her very intellectual then, but that was just only the surface of her potential. Now, the girl is regarded as a genius, her IQ is nothing to be taken lightly or to be taken for granted, even as a young chunin. The teen possesses amazing mental capacity, is able to concentrate flawlessly even in the heat of battle, can calculate things in her head with great speed, and is able to remember many things with perfect recollection, even if it’s just useless information that is meant to be disregarded. In addition to that, Kazui is very deductive, competent, and witted. Her mind is the most dangerous weapon she possesses for many reasons. The girl is highly alert, aware, and very analytical, and she is also very ingenious and is capable of thinking outside of the box as well. Not only is she capable of reading, analyzing, and breaking down a person’s fighting style, but she can also determine what kind of person they are just by the way they speak, the way they carry themselves, and their thoughts on certain things. While doing this, it’s incredibly difficult to deceive the girl, especially if one is not skilled in the art of deception. Furthermore, Kazui can formulate numerous plans to certain situations in mere seconds. She thinks 10 steps ahead, and always has a back up plan just incase.

Gone In The Wind - Blistering Speed
As a child, Kazui was born weaker than others. Her health conditions set the girl at a disadvantage physically since birth, however her constant effort and drive to become the best has pushed her far beyond many others the same rank as herself. Her speed is nothing to be taken lightly, she has pushed herself physically to be able to not only outpace her opponent, but outright force them into keeping up with her and pushing them to the brink with her speed as well. The girl is fast, quick, and agile, even rivaling those who dedicated their entire life to the art of taijutsu to the point where if they haven’t specifically honed their speed, then the girl could outright outclass them in that regard. Those with weak perception often have trouble perceiving the girl’s movements, and to a normal human’s eye perceiving her is nigh impossible. All of her movements are inhumanly quick and hard to keep track of, and when used in conjunction with her sharingan, it can make her a formidable opponent for even the strongest of shinobi.

The Minimalist - Chakra Control
There was a problem that Kazui noticed during her time in the academy and that was the fact that she often found herself tiring out and exhausting herself rather quickly, even when she had just started she could feel herself beginning to wilt. So to counter those measures, the girl studied and asked around, trying to find the reason behind it and if there was a way she could fix it. She wasn’t born with massive reserves so while she utilized her justus, she often did so wastefully. But now, the girl has managed to control the amount of chakra she uses in a technique that allows her to fight much longer than before. She uses the absolute bare minimum of the chakra that’s needed, and not a drop more.

Uchiha Bloodline: Two Tomoe Sharingan
Being born within the Uchiha clan, Kazui has been blessed and/or cursed with a power that only an Uchiha can possess and use to its complete and full potential when they have experienced extreme emotions that causes their chakra to pour into their optic nerves, gifting them with the Sharingan, also known as the eyes that reflect the heart. There are three stages to the sharingan, and it is tracked by the amount of tomoe that appears around an Uchiha’s pupil. One tomoe unlocks the eye of insight, it grants the user the ability to see chakra within an opponent or ally and it also gives an increase to the user’s perceptive abilities. Two tomoe grants the user the eye of hypnotism, while in turn increasing the previous abilities that the ‘Eye of Insight’ grants. The girl’s precognition and perception is heightened well beyond what’s achievable by even the most skilled and elite shinobi, allowing her more of a predictive insight on her opponent as well as the world around her. In terms of her being able to track extremely fast objects and people alike, the eye also allows a natural reactive ability that helps her respond more accurately than a single tomoe could ever allow. As for the ability to see chakra, with a second tomoe the smallest and most faint sources of chakra can easily be spotted by the eye without any issue at all. Assigning color and analyzing the flow of the chakra, Kazui can tell which nature is going to be used as well as where the chakra will be coming from.

The Eye of Hypnotism on the other hand is much different than the previous eye, it allows the girl the ability to cast and break genjutsu with no issue at all, in a way only the Uchiha are capable of. It also gives her access to a set of genjutsu only known to those who possess great visual prowess amongst the clan. These illusions are very powerful in nature and are some of the most dangerous known to the art, they are well beyond standard genjutsu, and in addition the illusions can be casted with just a single glare. Those who met her gaze will find themselves under her spell before they can even realize what happened.

Tiny Dancer - Elusiveness
Kazui is one quick girl, which isn’t hard to tell. Thanks to her training, the girl has amazing agility and reflexes that allow her to keep herself out of harms way. Even without her sharingan being active, Kazui possesses sharp perceptive abilities and reflexes that allows her to become an escape artist of some sort as well as a complete nuisance to those trying to fight her. The girl’s reaction speed is superb and not to be taken lightly as it is, however, when the dojutsu is active, taking into account the girl’s great speed and adding her keen reflexes into the mix, it’s capabilities are much more potent and useful to the Uchiha. With this, not only is Kazui capable of keeping track of even the most renowned speediest opponents and attacks, the girl is able to keep up with, and react to them as well with relative ease.

Wake Up To Reality - KME Genjutsu Prowess
As an Uchiha it is believed that Kazui and many of her clanmen were born with a natural affinity for the art of genjutsu, but of course none of it can ever come to fruition if there is no effort placed behind it. However, since she was constantly reminded by those around her about that fact, the girl began to focus on the art more than ever before.

Although her illusions do become much more elaborate, less flawed in a certain sense, and stronger, the true results come more in the form of defending herself against genjutsu. Her vast knowledge of the art as well as her training and extremely high sensory capabilities allow for the Uchiha’s escape efforts to be significantly stronger than it normally is, allowing her to free herself from genjutsu up to 1 rank above what she is typically capable of via the special ability granted to the Uchiha with The Sharingan’s genjutsu escape. It should be noted however that genjutsu reversal does not receive any additional boosts from this ability.

Sleight of Hand - Seals Master
As Kazui grew older and gained more experience and familiarity with the ninja arts, the girl’s chakra control had essentially been mastered along with her speed and accuracy with forming hand-seals. Countless of hours spent training, learning, and even creating new jutsu has made the girl grow familiar with every seal needed to perform any jutsu, every motion for every combination, her body absorbed and memorized - allowing her to flow through the motions with no given thought or effort. Her speed with forming these seals is insanely quick and precise, she’s even capable of stringing together the lengthiest combinations of hand seals and casting jutsu faster than most can even dream of keeping up with, making it appear as if she hadn’t even tried to use any hand-seals to begin with. Her vast knowledge and familiarity with sealing in addition to her refined chakra control has lead her to being able to utilize only a single hand to form a seal as well, though she only does this under certain circumstances.
