Girl Power [Kallen Abarume]

[RYUUJI SHIVA]

"Great and I suppose I could teach you something. Fair enough. What were you looking to learn?" She would reply with a smile which faded into a serious expression at the request to be trained. She would take oppurtunity of asking more questions should they come to mind at that time. She already knew the basics like her skills and sexuality the latter insignificant to her but she was curious about how she ended up in Kusagakure when she was originally from Konohagakure and the Aburame clan. She had set up shop here in this village and not returned to Konohagakure so she was curious about that as well. She grunted a little as she pushed herself against the glass wall and then slowly up it until she was standing up again next to Kallen now. She then proceeded to dust her butt off before doing the same to her chest even though it wasn't really dirty at all so mostly a habit.

"Right just pick a place and we'll go there. You'll have to lead the way there since I don't know this village that well yet." She smiled sheepishly for once she didn't know something. She'd never really been to Kusagakure before had never cared to before. She would make sure to do research on it later before she left to return to Konohagakure and her fiancee there who was probably missing her terribly by now. She could hardly believe they'd be married soon. Most of it had been planned out so all they could do was wait for that day to come. What made it sweeter was Marianisa had finally returned and would be bringing her own date to it. She could hardly wait to meet the guy and had no idea she had already met him before in Kumogakure. She seemed to like Roronora which was good meaning there would be less issues between the two now.

Focusing on what she witnessed from the fight, she would pay attention to the one thing that could be used to her best advantage. “I know where we can go to eat before getting down to business. Now training wise, I was hoping you would teach me that huge wave of wind technique you pulled when I diverted your first attempts at fire (Wind Style: Great Breakthrough Technique).” Such a technique had interested her as she could viably have the maximum thoughts of how to perform it with her own skills, of course she has the Eruption technique and it would be one of the harshest techniques she could ever use to the main fortunate technique of hers. Traversing in this village was a simple means of knowing where to go, of course the best places to eat that were not completely vegetarian diners would be up on the roofs. Kallen did not mind nor would she ever mind this much as she would point up, “We have to get up on the roof, that is probably the best meat diner here. Of course they have vegetarian meals as well but they mainly serve meat, as for vegetarian meals, those are found all along the base of the stores.” Kallen had already mapped out what occurred in this village most days and once on the roof she would smile asking for a booth for two. The booths were fine red leather with efficient padding to them. She would be smiling, happy to be getting to eat here while her eyes would be focused on Shiva, unlike most Kallen knew this woman was pregnant and was ideally why she picked here, it was a good portion of food for anyone and the food here helped grow for stronger and healthier bodies all the while tasting delicious.

"The Great Breakthrough technique eh? Sure I could teach you that. Sun was the one who helped me perfect it." Of course he had denied at first but after pestering him he had relented. He had used the excuse of not wanting another person to take over his summon contract wanting to empower Shiva so that she would live and continue to carry it herself. She would say he had developed a soft spot for him and maybe he had but he would deny it never wanting to admit it openly. Not that she minded just knowing he did was enough for her. "Might you teach me that Eruption technique someday?" Shiva would ask quite interested in the technique now. She'd mastered most of the techniques she knew so she was always looking for new ones pertaining to the nature releases she possessed.

"I'm not picky to be honest I love a wide range of food from salads to meat or spicy dishes. Anywhere is fine since I'm the one paying." She would simply nod following Kallen to the rooftop now entering a restaurant located there. After Kallen had snagged them a table Shiva would follow her to it and take a seat across from her. Naturally Shiva felt a lot of men's eyes in the place on her mostly a few probably directed Kallen. She would glanced around pretending not to notice and the men looked away. She then looked back to Kallen seeing a waiter approach them now. "Evening Miss Aburame. What'll it be for you and your friend here." The emphasis he put on friend seemed to suggest he thought they were together most likely to her reputation of being in female company more often then that of men. "I'll have herbal iced tea and a fruit salad with some sushi on the side." Nothing against gay people like Kallen since she herself had dated women in the past so she felt no need to correct the man. Though she was sure Kallen might if she had picked up on it.

But I can’t until I am actually proficient in its own use. I actually just created that technique, without even knowing it. You could say I have a knack at creating things out of nothing.” She would giggle at the mere imagery thought. Her presence at the now known restaurant would allow herself to look about, the waiter was actually someone she knew from the academy who had even dated her in a small night. Too bad she did not take a high fancy to him. She would look directly at the waiter and as her usual she would ask for, “Lo-mein with heavy spice shrimp and chicken please. Add some broccoli to the side as well,” she would make the order her own with a smile to her face. After having made her order she tipped the waiter early with a note stating that this was not a date. Of course the way she had made it sound on the note was far worse to that summarization. She would look back at Shiva and brought up her bottle of sake, pouring a small amount into one glass and then would look around the area. She knew Shiva should not have alcohol so that would be her only reason to not offer any as she would nod lightly, “Sake always did taste better with company.” Her smile stayed and her eyes would look to the ceiling, drinking a small amount while her curse mark, placed to her solarplex, would slightly show itself through the buttons to her black outfit. The pale skin there would make it show with definition as she stretched, only visible at that instance.

"Great and well I like a challenge so if you taught me the basics I could perfect it on my own. I love a good challenge my dear Kallen." She would smile and simply nod at Kallen's last comment. She'd never really created her own technique before but she didn't have much trouble perfecting ones taught to her. She was primarily a earth release user above her other two nature releases so something like Eruption wouldn't be that big of a deal to her though she would have to learn it soon or wait until she had had her baby to finish training and perfecting. Whatever the case she was excited about being allowed to learn another technique such as this one. She would glance at Kallen noticing her slip the waiter a letter after giving him her order raising a curious brow at this.

"My apologies Miss Aburame. Your drinks should arrive shortly but your meals will be about ten minutes." The man would say clearly embarrassed before shuffling off to place their orders in the kitchen. Shiva would notice Kallen pull out her own Sake now and smiled. She then glanced around the place again humming a little to herself now. Looking back she would notice Kallen looking to the ceiling now. She wouldn't notice the curse mark but she was curious about it's use earlier. "So tell me about your curse mark. How did you come into possession of it if I may ask?" It seemed like it might be a sensitive subject but she had to know about it. If Kallen wouldn't tell her then she would let it go for now until it became an issue for her. She would look back to the table as a waitress brought her her herbal iced tea now. She nodded in thanks and watched her saunter off back to the kitchen.

Taking a larger than normal gulp of her sake she would pause and then look directly at Shiva. “My curse mark if you could call it that, is a full two stage mark much like Orochimaru’s original creations of Heaven, Earth, and Four Sound marks. To actually tell this one I should probably state the ones of the original sound ninja. Of the Earth and Four sound marks, those marks increased the user’s natural gifts including chakra and strength ten-fold. The Heaven seal to my knowledge increased the strength of the user two fold and gives the user flying abilities, along with this an amplification to the users chakra. My mark gifts me ten-fold of chakra with just the first stage. “The second stage would gift me an impossible amount of chakra that feeds directly to my kikaichu. Increasing their abilities and strength, which by chance protects them from the elements to higher degrees, approximately only lightning and fire jutsu can kill them with enough force while in this form. It takes a good amount of fire or lightning to do this.” She would pause, taking another drink of chakra. She had explained the actual thing of chakra to her curse mark and at the same time she had shook her head lightly, it took enough energy out of her to talk about it, but she would continue to finish it off. She would look up at the ceiling and breath in deeply, a small tear ran down her cheek before she continued, “I was taken from the leaf and experimented on by Orochimaru. He was the one who created this curse mark that he claims to have more chakra prowess than the Heaven, earth, and four sound seals combined.” She would shake her head, it was a rumor and if it were true she shouldn’t second guess it but it was that, a curse.

Shiva simply nodded her head at most of what Kallen told her. A lot of this she had been debriefed on as a member of Anbu and then by the Kages when becoming head of INTEL. "I figured it was something of the sort. There is still so much we don't know about the man. Even now much of his research and secrets are still a mystery to us. He truly is a legend history will always remember long after we are dead." They'd uncovered a few of his older hideouts after the war but much of value had been found. It seemed he had taken most of his secrets to the grave with him or left them i hideouts they had yet to discover. There was no telling what they might learn or discover once they did find some of his bigger hideouts. She would hum a bit as she pondered this sipping more of her herbal iced tea now.

"I met such an experiment of his I doubt you'd know him though but perhaps you could meet him sometime and share stories. His name is Vayne Azal Sato and he currently resides in Konohagakure but I could always arrange for him to come meet you if you'd like that. He's troubled by what was done to him so maybe you can help him through it all." Shiva would say before sipping her tea some more as the waiter arrived with their food now. It was sad what had happened to the boy and how his disappearance had ripped his family apart leaving a hole in it. She felt Kallen could relate to the boy and might want to befriend him if only to help him through his ordeal. She would look to her food now and smiled it all looked so good and deliscious now as she took a bite of her fruit salad now.

She was the only one in the testing area aside from a few prisoners, which were her sacrifices in some standards, as she would take a sip from her sake. Enjoying the sweet and spicy feel of the flavoring while she would listen. Vayne Azal Sato, such an interesting name, definitely someone worth focusing on as she would take a bite of food which had thankfully just arrived. “Vayne is welcome to come to the village, I will inform the council to grant him a visa so he may come and go from here. However, I do believe I told you of my troubles with the main five villages. For that I will not be venturing to them. He is welcome here but I will not be going to those areas unless it is on business occasion.” She certainly followed her own protocol. With that said she would drink a small amount of sake before digging back into her meal, proportioning it to its delicate form as she would eat away at the good ways of the meal. Her food was cooked to a delicate temperature, the spices and sweetness all made to a delicate tongue of gratitude. “I can try to remember the area we were taken but all I know is the smell of blood, and the musky scent of a prison. That is all I know of where we went and from there I hope you can get some information out of it. But over all I just do not have enough memories of the place to let you know.” She was very young when she was taken and from there she did not know exactly where the area was nor what the place in its entirety was. She wanted and at the same time did not want to remember.

"Of course I don't expect you to travel to see him. I understand your situation so I'm sure if I speak to the Hokage then INTEL can be granted custody of him allowing him to come to you. I'm sure you'll have lots to talk about." Shiva replied quickly taking a few bites out of salad now sipping some more of her drink now. It was sweet the boy had found love in a girl named Takara but he was still troubled. Amnesia seemed to block out most of his past and interrogations hadn't produced any better results. Truly a frustrating situation but he was making progress so soon he might have information to share on his kidnapping and time spent with Orochimaru. What scared her was the abilities given to him from experimentation. The snake sannin had given him a stronger lava release and as well as the swift and dark releases a truly frightening combination.

"Your not alone there Kallen. Vayne doesn't remember much about his time imprisoned either. He got a curse seal too but nothing like yours." A heaven seal like the one Sasuke Uchiha had possessed at one point. It was the multiple kekkai genkais he possessed that was a frightening power. All it would have taken was one more and he might have become truly invincible. If he was guinea pig for gene splicing she wasn't sure why Orochimaru had stopped there. She would shrug not wishing to dwell on it much longer took a few bites of her sushi now washing it down with some more tea now. "That's enough questions about you for now. Any about me you might have? She would ask raising a curious brow now surely the woman had questions about her superior.

[ABURAME KALLEN]

Of course being a guinea pig of Orochimaru’s does destroy many freedoms a being may have. Kallen would take more out of her meal, sipping the sake lightly now as she would look at Shiva, “If at all possible I would like to see his file before he visits, also I would like to have a copy of the other INTEL member files that are permissible for me to look through. This village has no leader as of yet so I and the council can review his file, only his, the other files I am requesting will never leave my own office. That is to keep safety and security at its highest.” She would say while having her eyes focused solely on Shiva. It was the most probable way to get possible answers and with her she happened to be highly gracious and polite in the manner. Kallen would think on the new information that Vayne too held a curse seal. Nothing like her own, which resembled that she may actually know some of the experimental areas. Now with that she would notice that the questions about herself were complete, however she was asked if she had any questions now for Shiva. Kallen would think, normally being inquisitive was not in Kallen’s nature as she would ask now, “Frankly I don’t ask much, but other than what I could see in your file if permitted to that, what information would not be in that file. Your pregnancy and more than likely your partner both would be omitted from the records but I know these things. So other than those, is there any other information there of?” It was a long question but of course given the fact that she did not have any others to go with it.

"Don't misunderstand me though. He's not a criminal or anything. The hokage is just unsure what to do with him at the present time so he is kept on lockdown not able to leave village but as I said I can get him permission through INTEL to be brought here." Shiva would speak up to Kallen now not wanting her to get the wrong impression about him. She would agree though he looked a little young for his age which threw off some people upon first glance. Thankfully shinobi had files kept on them as they progressed clearing up issues like this. Hearing Kallen speak she looked to the woman again sipping at her iced tea some more her cup about half full now.

"Of course I'll get you a copy of that soon as possible. I can only grant you access to the files of the shinobi of the minor villages for now for recruiting purposes. Once we're fully operational and running at full steam you will be granted full access." Shiva would reply with a serious expression on her face now. Kallen's demands were reasonable but she wanted to keep each commander to their own jurisdiction for now for recruiting purposes. "I'm sure I can arrange for a copy of my files as well. I would like to keep my pregnancy hush hush for as long as possible so I thank you for that. My partner is commander of the leaf branch so you will be permitted access to his files as the other commander files will be accessable to you also." It was only fair that she allowed all the commander to see each other files whenever they wanted. She wanted them to be updated on who exactly they were working with so issues that might cause issues between them might be avoided.

[ABURAME KALLEN]

Or so that was Kallen’s belief because just getter the lower end of the staff first would prove hardest while getting the larger fish were the easier to spot. And with more eyes, the smaller the fish the wider the search range. She would look at this woman Shiva, who had answered one question but did not with so many others. She noticed that this woman also misunderstood her question about the information. Sure the file bit was nice, but she wanted to know more about this woman that would not be necessarily seen on her file. She figured she would be able to look at this file eventually anyways so that was where her interest in the other information would come from. “You misunderstood what I was asking when I asked for your file. What exactly is not in your file, I am basicly asking what is secret enough not to be in your file while what is not secret enough to keep completely out of radar.” She asked it plainly yet at the same time with a kind voice as she would nod her head towards Shiva. The manor to which Kallen would take in more details, her blue eyes calculating the entirety of it as she would finish her meal, emptying her sake container as she would be grateful to her critters for eating all the alcohol out of her system entirely as she would then stretch lightly. “I do believe there is a possible question you missed asking me about. Or it was something you figured out on your own but I would like to clear it up if you ask. My resentment to the Leaf village, the reason I am here in Kusagakure, and more.” She had calculated, whether correctly or not she would figure out soon enough.

Finding commanders took higher priority to her than lesser members. Once she found commanders they could handle recruiting in their areas assigned to them. That would give her time to focus on meetings with Kages and her own personal life like her baby and upcoming wedding. So much to do while handling matters related to INTEL. She sighed inwardly it was overbearing at times but she wouldn't give up she couldn't afford to. She needed all six commanders before she could consider taking her absence to deal with her wedding and pregnancy. "I like to train a lot to keep in tip top shape kind of an obsession probably. I'm engaged to the head of the Inuzuka clan in Konohagakure and am pregnant with his child. You'll meet him soon enough. I have a rather rare summon which you met earlier. Only other thing that wouldn't be in there is my miscarriage."

A sour subject for Shiva evident of the sad expression on her face now as she fell quiet. She felt telling others helped her get over it. She was pregnant which helped and made her excited but that fear would always be in the back of her mind. What if complications arose suddenly and something happened? She tried not to dwell on it but at times it gave her nightmares which weren't that frequent but still bothered her. She would move to finish her own meal off now downing it with the rest of her drink now. "I was curious about that but I didn't wish to pry into it." The questions had crossed her mind but she felt they might be too personal for Kallen to want to talk about. She could never imagine abandoning Sunagakure unless they made threats against her or her family. She loved her village and grown to love the leaf village as she lived there with her husband-to-be now.

[ABURAME KALLEN]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=background,http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/ff422/garraslayer1/Editables%20for%20Others/Locust.jpg][atrb=width,500,true][atrb=height,550,true][div style="margin-top: 130px;margin-right:130px;width:[br"]270px;height:400px;overflow:auto;color:#FF0000] Train a lot that could be discouragingly considered an obsession. Kallen took this small detail in and would nod her head while continuing to analyze. The rest of the information that was presented would prove equally viable as she learned that her engaged partner was a Konoha resident, not only that but the head of the Inuzuka clan and leader of the Konohagakure INTEL team. Kallen took these details in like a dry sponge absorbing water. She would listen and then also took mention to the summon of the monkey man and the miscarriage. She would be meeting the Konoha ninja and although she was not overjoyed with the fact, she was in a minimal way happy to hear it. The miscarriage proved to be a sour subject that Kallen would not delve into, a pain only few women can relate to and Kallen could not so therefore she would not delve into it for that would only bring uncomfortable feeling between the two. Therefore, she would be brought back to the analysis to her own life, the mystery of why she never went back to Konohagakure and the Land of Fire. “The Land of Grass is a welcoming place, a place where refugees can live happily. Now do know that I did try to find my way back to the leaf village after my kidnapping, the only problem was that along with being nameless at the time, I was also never mentioned as a missing child. My family abandoned all hope of finding me and with that they also abandoned the mere memory of themselves having a daughter. There are no log books stating where I am born, no document saying I exist other than my ninja record here starting from the academy and onward.” She would sigh lightly. “Due to that the Leaf village too abandoned me as a little girl who had no family, no name, and also no documents. I came back here without caring about that and from then on I lived here, grew up here, and hated my family and the Major Villages since then.” All the major villages only cared about codes, standards, and rules. Kallen had found the only rule in the Grass Village and other minor villages were the codes of etiquette and self ruling favor. If you could not self govern then you were not fit to live nor govern another. That was how Jounin were chosen, if they had a will to live, to serve, and at the same time a separate life they lived that they called their own then they were regarded as Shinobi and villagers of the minor place. A standard that was unbecoming of the Major Villages sadly.

Everyone had their faults for Shiva it was her unhealthy obsession with training. Always seeking out new techniques to keep herself preoccupied with them. A common Ryuuji trait to be honest and something even her sister and mother had been obsessed with. Beauty like theirs wasn't without it's faults and they had plenty of them mentally. She honestly didn't mind if Kallen inquired about her miscarriage since she had brought it up in the first place. It was something she prayed the woman and her partner whoever that ended up being never had to face such a thing. What made it so painful was the emotional devastation it left. Losing a child you were excited to carry and someday give birth to becoming it's mother. It was the greatest feeling in the world and to have it taken away broke a person. She had cried for days after her recovery assuring herself she would never try it again not wanting to go through it again.

"I wont lie and say I can relate to that. The pain and sadness you must have felt. I don't blame you for what happened and don't hate you for your reasons in living here now. I just hope you can forgive them for the sake of INTEL. I wont have you griping or moaning around their commanders. I expect only common courtesy and respect towards them and the same from them towards you." That was all Shiva would say about that a serious expression on her face now. She would not allow grudges to be held between villages who might hate each other. They would work together and show each other respect or she would fire them and kick their ass on the way out. Kallen was no exception and would have to follow the same rules as everyone else did regardless of her hatred for the others.
