A Chance At Something [Yoshida]

[FUUMA KINA]

How easily the fight could have been avoided. Most men were usually intimidated by the bold and confident blood red haired beauty. Sadly this guy hadn't been so intimidated and was bold enough to give Fuuma a nice slap on her butt. Had she been in the mood for some casual fun like sex she might have allowed it but it was early morning and she was hardly in the mindset for such activities yet. It had all happened so fast not even the bartender was sure what had really happened until it was over. One guy laid on the ground holding his crotch with both hands another lay strewn across a knocked over table and a third lay on the ground grasping the ankle of one of Kina's feet as she drove her right foot into his groin twisting it a little a devilish smirk on her face now as she laughed at his misery lightly now.

"Thank you for attending Miss Kina's private lesson today kind sir. Perhaps now you know what the word no means. You'll do well to remember it in the future." She would smile grinding her right foot into his groin a little more. When he cried out in pain she would sigh in content removing her foot now. Then she simply turned and left the bar. Her weapon Twin Fang laid folded up neatly against her shoulders on her back. She wore a small long sleeved red jacket which was left unzipped over her plain black blouse which matched her skin tight black pants and ninja shoes. Her blood red hair cascaded down her back with two strands coming down over her ears and shoulders on the frontside. She had no set destination in mind so she opted for just following her feet and seeing where they took her today.

[YOSHIDA AKASHA]

Even for him, it was too early to be taking missions, especially when they were as simple as dealing with a couple of drunks who managed to get themselves into a scrap. He was a chuunin, though sometimes he felt like little more than a basic security officer, breaking up bar room brawls. Still, he did what he was told, it paid the bills, and was easy enough he could just about sleep through it. Little did he actually expect the bar to look like the aftermath of a real battle when he entered, two men spread out on the floor. They were alive, but obviously had just been through something unspeakable.

“I got word of some kind of brawl in here, seems like I’m a bit late.” He spoke aloud, looking over at the bartender, who was busy just trying to clean the mess, “This looks like more than just the average drunken brawl, especially so early in the day.”

The bartender just looked over at Akasha, and shook his head slightly, “There was a ninja who just left, someone from outta’ town.” That got his attention quickly.

“A ninja?!” He said, worrying about what this could mean if the city was being infiltrated, “Who. When. Why?” He immediately began asking his questions.

“Err, some red-haired woman, these guys were giving her a hard time so... she decided to make a mess of my bar. She was harsh on them though, I feel bad for the one the medical-nin had to come pick up.” He said, causing Akasha to release a sigh of relief. It meant they most likely weren’t being infiltrated at least, though the idea of an unidentified ninja in town... a red-haired kunoichi at that, was worth looking into.

“Any idea which direction she took off too? I’d like to meet her.”

“Your funeral, kid. No idea where she went, but you won’t miss that hair, it’s blood red, and her clothes are... well, I think you’ll see what I mean if you find her.” Akasha didn’t exactly figure that as much to go on, but he nodded and left the bar. If she was as easy to spot as he hoped, he wouldn’t need to waste the chakra to find her, at least.

Strangely enough, the bartender was absolutely right, she definitely stuck out with that flowing red hair, and that... interesting attire. He found himself drooling from afar, she was absolutely gorgeous, and did she have one hell of a butt, ’Oh wow, I think I’m in love! How do we approach this though?’ He pondered for a moment, remembering the poor drunks from the bar, Eh... I don’t think the forward method is the way to impress her. Hm, professional! Girls like that right? Besides, I need to make sure I get some kind of information about her for the Tsuchikage, can’t have an unknown ninja walking around. Nope, definitely have to go speak to her! He was pumped, and walking toward her before he knew it, Iwagakure symbol proudly displayed on his headband, “Good morning miss!” Was what he planned on saying, though he managed to get hung up as it came out more as “Good Mooorn...”

[FUUMA KINA]

Okay so maybe she had been a little rough on that one guy his friends had gotten off light at least. It had after all only been a light slap on her butt. Nothing to really blow up over but what was done was done and in the past now there was no taking it back. His chances of reproducing might be over but she would simply say it was probably for the best in the end. Still perhaps she would return to the bar later to apologize to the owner and bartender to pay for the damages or well some of them since the whole mess left behind was completely her fault. They had gotten off light though since she had had a few drinks and was in a fairly decent mood at the time. Afterwards she felt a lot happier having caused the guys some pain while teaching them a lesson. Today was off to a good start for her it seemed.

She hadn't gone far when she felt eyes on her as she came to stop now placing her hands on hips now which swayed ever so slightly to the right. Glancing over her shoulder she spotted a male wearing a Iwagakure headband no doubt a shinobi of the village coming towards her. She would smile sheepishly noticing him staring at her butt seeming starstruck by her overall appearance. She would admit he was kind of cute a gentleman type probably. The kind to never raise a hand against her unless it was in battle against each other. She would turn around to face him directly as he advanced closer to her as he attempted to muster a greeting only to stumble as he did so. "Morning to you too sugar." She would say now giving him a playful wink. Then thinking back to why he probably had sought her out she would place her hands on her hips once more. "If you're here about the mess I caused I really do apologize and will help pay for the damages later. I guess I got a little carried away." She would add smiling sheepishly as she ran a hand through her hair now.

[YOSHIDA AKASHA]

Dealing with other shinobi was always a strange affair, especially when they didn’t carry any kind of obvious identification. Some ninja preferred not to wear their headbands, though it was equally likely that she simply had no affiliation. He couldn’t say he recognized anyone with a profile like hers, so he assumed that she was at least not a big target in the bingo book. Then again, he also had nothing to say she was a criminal at all, “I-I see.” He kept going with the shy routine for the moment, guard up until he was sure this was nothing worth reporting, “I have to ask though, as a part of village security,” He began trying to act slightly more professional, “Who are you, and where you come from.”

That was even a little too impersonal for him, and a smirk quickly grew on his face, “A lovely kunoichi such as yourself must have a good reason to come to our pile of rock,” He doubted she was actually anyone threatening the village’s security, but playing that he did gave more reason to keep talking to her.

She was interesting, to say the least. Even despite her odd , and yet ever so attractive appearance, she was quite friendly for the moment. However, it was also likely she was one who could change on a dime, that personable demeanor hiding something far more sinister. Inwardly, he wondered if he should protect his own groin, as the usual tricks of his could easily lead to unbelievable pain. Yet, even knowing what she could do, he couldn’t help it as his eyes wandered. She demanded to be seen, even though doing so offered great penalty, “-Quite lovely, might I add.”

[FUUMA KINA]

Kina could seem him sizing her up already trying to find some form of identification no doubt as well as checking her body out initially. She had to guess he was a shinobi of the village though he looked a little young for it possibly her age or younger. He seemed a little suspicious of her but not enough to detain her as he probably had nothing to use against her yet. Not that she was worried or showed it since she had technically abandoned her village but only because some crazed rogue agent of INTEL had attacked her family driving them out of the village for reasons unknown. She would simply smile as she sized him up now as well arms folded under her bust now. He was cute she'd admit that much and possibly her type. He seemed to have an air of innocence about him but it could easily be a ploy to deceive her not that she had anything to really hide from him. Last thing she wanted was to seem suspicious and get into more trouble with his village after the bar incident.

"Oh it's no trouble at all my dear. It's Fuuma Kina and I don't really have a home anymore I travel where I please." She would simply reply smiling sheepishly as he tried to act more serious and professional now. Then he complimented her and she would simply smile. "Just thought I'd see the sights mainly maybe try to find someone decent for a change to share my time with." Some random fling was nice and all but she figured what the hell might be nice to try something real for a change see if anything happened there. She had issues she could only hope they would ignore or might actually want to try and help her with. "Not so bad yourself. How about you give me a tour and I'll tell you whatever you want to know." She would reply with a sheepish smile on her face running a hand through her hair now. Who was to say where things might go from there only time would tell if he was interesting enough to keep around longer than she usually did with others.

[YOSHIDA AKASHA]

A favorable response? Maybe there was a pussycat hiding in the tigers skin, it wasn't the craziest thing he had ever seen by any means. Either way, she had introduced herself kindly enough, and he was fairly positive there was no harm in escorting her around town, “Yoshida Akasha,” He replied, “Shinobi of ten-thousand jutsu!” He was slightly surprised to hear she'd allow him to go with her, which he would gladly accept, “Sure, I haven't met many people from outside of the village, embarrassingly enough.” That wasn't entirely true, he had made quite a few acquaintances during his second attempt at the Chuunin exams, as well as some villagers from smaller towns on the country's borders. Still, very few he knew well enough to call real friends.

Akasha gave a closer look at her now, smiling genuinely as he realized the humanity in those eyes, behind the seductress clothing. It was in that moment he knew for sure this woman was no criminal, at least not one by choice, “Of course, I may want to go find a cup first.” he joked, speaking before he found himself staring for too long, “I do have plans for children some day, after all!”

He could only hope she'd find his joke funny as he contemplated where to take her first. The marketplace was lively enough, “The Iwagakure marketplace is always a fun stop, crowded and loud, pretty much the best bit of Stone culture you'll ever find.” That was only partly a joke, the very nature of the people in the village could be well summed up by the actions in the marketplace, “Just have to always be sure you know where you wallet is, it can be all too easy to lose.”

[FUUMA KINA]

She could act tough and bold sometimes but it was all an act to get attention really. She could be soft and sensible when the time called for it which was rare and far inbetween as of late. Most were too intimidated by her reputation and avoided her for women who were easier to handle and were more submissive. "Ten Thousand jutsu you say. That must be quite impressive Yoshida." Was she being sarcastic? Not really but she wasn't saying she gullible enough to believe it either. She would simply call it an attempt to impress her and leave it at that the thought making her blush he seemed so innocent she felt she could never take advantage of someone like him it would just feel wrong. He was probably new to dating so perhaps if something did end up happening between the two given enough time it might go somewhere for a change. Perhaps if she could get over her fear of being used like her uncle had. Good riddance to him she would say since she knew he was dead having killed him herself to free herself from the shackles he had metaphorically placed on her.

"Relax Yoshida your manhood will be safe with me." She knew it was a joke and why he had said it. He'd given her no reason yet to crush it but should he cross her or betray her trust then she would gladly do so. She smiled sheepishly patting him on the back lightly a few times now hoping it made him relax more around her. "A marketplace eh? Sure we can head there first and I doubt I have to worry about that much." She kept her coin pouch firmly tucked in her bra between her breasts so only a fool she wasn't intimate with or dating would dare stick his hand in there to fetch it. "Lead the way then my dear." She would say now locking an arm with one of his now. She wouldn't think much of the implications others might make from it or assume but she didn't care. She cared little what others thought of her personally. If someone thought she was his girlfriend then she could always have fun with that for some amusement.

[YOSHIDA AKASHA]

Akasha highly doubted she actually bought his ten-thousand jutsu schtick, but he wasn't going to drop that joke for anyone. Besides, it wasn't an entirely false title, he did have quite a few taijutsu moves he would try out in combat and often give a random name and number to if they actually worked. In reality, they weren't truly jutsu, and often not even realistically repeatable, but it was almost a game to him to be creative during any sparring matches, "Well my jutsu are quite impressive, I must say... even if they aren't all finished yet." He still hadn't come up with one worthy of being his number one special jutsu.

It didn't take much more than that for him to fully lower his guard around her, his suspicions fully cleared. She was odd, for sure, and going to be more than a handful he could already tell. He didn't mind though, a little bit of strangeness never hurt anything, "Well knowing that I'm perfectly safe with you," He began, "Let's head off, shall we?" He considered for a moment offering his hand to her, but decided that could wait until later. He didn't want to scare her off too quickly.

"I will admit, the marketplace isn't all that exciting really, but it's a decent place to walk around and spend time with that someone special." He teased, wearing his usual goofy grin, "Besides, I haven't eaten all morning!"

[FUUMA KINA]

She knew it was a joke sure which was why she didn't entirely believe. Though she did think there could be a little truth to it. That perhaps he did have a great number of techniques at his disposal which made her all the more interested and intrigued by him. She liked a talented man who was strong with a great sense of humor that could potentially dominate her made her chuckle a little. Normally she was the dominating one in whatever she did in life with someone but when it came to sex she found it a big turn on when she was dominated by a man heck even a woman though she'd never dabbled in that any but she wasn't opposed to it. "Impressive? Clearly you haven't seen my kekkai genkai. Just looking at me now you can see it at work never stopping." No it wasn't immortally persay because she still aged internally but on the outside she would always look this way until her organs gave out causing death or she died of chakra exhaustion.

Blood Burst was pretty unnatural to witness in action Rebirth even more so. It wasn't everyday one saw a shinobi regenerate a lost limb. Such power by the greatest weakness was the effect of constant use of the adrenaline rush on her heart. If overused she risked killing herself due to total heart failure which was why upon mastering it she used it sparingly. She simply nodded in response noticing him start to extend a hand to her only to suddenly retract him it seeming hesitant. She'd never really been much of a hand holder but if he wanted that she wasn't opposed to it he seemed like a nice guy and gentleman at that. "Do you have a special someone then?" She wasn't sure why she asked. Normally she wouldn't care but she found herself almost hoping he was free. "Let's grab something to eat my treat Yoshida." She would say looking at him now taking one of his hands in her own now.

[YOSHIDA AKASHA]

"Ah, well there definitely seemed to be something special about you," Akasha replied, "I'm the first ninja of my own family, myself. I find everything I've created to be quite impressive." He explained and started walking toward the marketplace with her, the streets filled with life and activity even where they were right then. To be truthful, he did have one actually impressive trick, though many wrote it off because of, well him really.

She seemed quite comfortable around him, and that went quite far in helping Akasha to relax as well, "Everyone's special to me in the village," It wasn't exactly the answer she was looking for, but it was still pretty true. He wasn't the fastest, the most talented, or even the smartest, but he knew where it counted. He had grown up with this village as his home, its people his family. Some said it was better to be feared than loved in terms of respect and power, and in that case, he'd leave power for someone else, "But no, no one my own." He gave a smirk as she offered to buy him lunch, "Well then, isn't this an unexpected treat, lucky for you I've got cheap taste."

[FUUMA KINA]

"Nothing special really just unique." She hadn't meant to brag really. Okay well maybe a little bit out of habit. Kina always been trying to show her up during training with their father. "I have a twin sister we both trained to become shinobi. We had a great rivalry going at times." They would always butt heads over everything that was just how they were. She would glance around the marketplace at the various people going about their business selling and buying things. Most of her techniques were nothing to brag about other than the one she had created herself and quite a deadly one at that. While making her inhuman when used it also had the potential to kill her by overworking her heart causing it to shutdown if used too much. A risk technique for sure and one she had to use sparingly.

"That must be nice." Kina would reply a light sign escaping her now. She had no one special now not even her own twin. She had no idea if she was alive or dead or where she might be. She was alone in this world and lately it seemed like she always would be. To die beautiful and alone it seemed like a curse really. She smiled when he said he himself had no one special for himself. "Well it's settled Yoshida-san lead the way to your favorite place to eat then." She didn't know of any places herself so letting his choose seemed like the better idea.
