Throughout the Forest

"Far ways to train, isn't it?" Ryou remarked, glancing back in the general direction of the Leaf Village. "Why don't you just train within the confines of Konoha?"

"Well I had to go to Kumo and come back. Needed some herbs for a medicen for Soul as you see." Kou had shown the tiger's scar that had a recent slash like cut on it. "And try to find Info about someone. Like the missing Nin called Oruchimaru."

"Oricho...maru? You were to gather information on him? Well, his location, though not well known, does not reside in this area." Ryou says, confused about the Genin's true motives.

((Let Whats-her-name join our RP for a sec. Her Missing-nin character would perk ears at that name.))

"I know that. I was hoping to get some if there was." Kou sigh as he lok pu. I have to get him for something he done. That's all."

Ryou nods in a vague understanding. "Orichimaru has done a lot... We all have a grudge against him."

Kyuu wiggles under Ryou's grasp. "Come oooon Ryou, we have to goooo!"

Isji was Sitting in the old peace tree, watching the young man, probably in his early 20`s and a younger boy, younger than her talk..True they were both sending out strong chakra signatures, as well as the summonings, she heard orochimari`s name be said but simply remained silent and hidden in the old tree

He sighs at Kyuu's beckoning, uncrouching to jump off his bulb. "Well, I wish you good luck on your mission. My apologies, but I obviously have somewhere to go."

The jellyfish starts to glide away, Ryou following with barely concealed haste.

(( I didn't want this to drag on forever. Thanks for the roleplay. ))

Kyuu's tentacle drapes over Ryou, alarm in his thoughts. 'Ryou, there is someone else...'

"Huh?" The man increases his speed, jumping along as fast as Kyuu was gliding.

(( Your que, good madamn. ))

Isji took her doku cloack tight over her body, the hood covering her head and long hair and the long cloack covering her body and forms, making it impossibol to tell her gende, she followed the jellyfish and its "owner" silent, almost like a shaow in the trees

'It's still following us.' The jellyfish warned, swerving backwards to pinpoint the exact signature of the sound.

A crinkling of leaves is heard throughout the woods, as three hidden snakes curl around on the ground, their huge mass unseen by Ryou and his seal.

(( I think Naka will roleplay them if the guy wants to. ))

((AAAAAGH Messed up. ))

Miru could already fell from distance snakes were there, she had a blood contact with them so she often fell when they were near, she simply jumped faster, comming closer to the 2 strangers

'It's gaining, and I think something else is-'

Throughout the undergrowth a pair of huge snakes crash, sending trees aside. They wrap around two trees in preparation to kill the two.

"Kyuu, ascend!" Ryou takes out a kunai, holding it up in defense as the jellyfish flew up into the sky, evading confrontation.

Isji draws her katana and landed in the middle of the 2 snakes, she didnt look afirad of them and didnt even speak, she took out a scroll, bit her finger and drew a thick line of blood, a huge black snake with venom dripping from its mouth appeard behind her, around 2 feet wider and 3 feet longer than the snakes

Ryou pivoted on the heels of his feet, looking back to see a female and two bloodthirsty snakes, along with the white smoke of a summoning jutsu. "Wh-What's this!?" He twists his kunai in defence, leaning back in preparation.

The snakes change their course, heading instead for the female ninja. They stop at the sudden cloud of smoke and notice the summoning of another snake.

(( I think you should take over the snake's perspective. I don't know how they'd react to all that. ))

Ryou glances at the retreating snakes, then looks up to gawk at the fiure of a woman who forced them to leave. "H-How did you do that...?"

Isji simply lifted her head, green eyes with 2 diamonds around showed she carrid a bloodline, she looked at him and stayed silent, the snake around her hizzed at him

Ryou held back a flinch from the snake, glancing up at the gliding jellyfish. He took control of his voice, holding back any signs of fright. "...How did you... do that? Who... are you?" He noticed her diamond-glare eyes, and shivered in spite of the moderately tropical temperature.

Isji didnt answer on the last and never took her eyes of him"its simpel..i have a blood contract with snakes..like you with that jelly fish"she said, looking at the jelly fish for a moment

Ryou shuffled on his feet, dissettled by the answer. "A blood contract with... snakes?" He tensed, his hand still gripping the kunai. "That's never a good sign, considering how snakes relate with... Orichimaru..."

Isji sminked yet again under the hood"well..its a contract i learnd from him..", she said in a amused tone

"He... taught you it?! You -know- Orichimaru?" Ryou demands, gritting his teeth. He glances at his kunai in preparation, readying himself for battle.

((What's a smink?!))

((evil/sly little smile))

Isji simply laughed a little dark laughter"seek him?..i whs to kill that snake-sannin my dear"

"I... I don't get it. If he taught you... why would you want to kill him?" Ryou asks, rubbing the back of his head in confusion. "And why did you call those snakes off... and save me?"
