Who was I? I wish I knew that exactly. The mere question sent flares through my brain. It was struggling to piece by information from various facets of my life. But nevertheless, the main points where there, but up until several months back information was incomplete, but from a few months until now it was completely blank. I had no recollection of what I had been doing or what had happened in the world.
I'm Vayne Aurelius, and I'm suffering from some sort of memory loss. I would declare, boldly. Can you help me out by any chance, stranger? If the man was a friend or foe, or merely someone that intended to exploit my situation it would be of little consequence, for I would find out the truth of the matter one way or another. However, currently he was the only shot that I had...
Finally securing 40% senchakra, Vegeta stands up and faces the newcomer..
Vayne?? You're extremely late. You were supposed to meet up with the members of Golden Sabbath, how did you lose your memory?
Geets remembered Uta discussing the man who had been a no show until now, what had kept him making him several months late to the party? As Geets waited for the other man to awaken, he would converse with him..

Golden Sabbath... The name did indeed ring a bell, but I was not quite sure to what extent. I'd like to say in a glorious battle for the ages, but to be completely honest I have no clue... Can you help jog my memory by any chance? Who or what is the Golden Sabbath?

The man was clearly not joking around. He explains to him a short version and that they would have to travel back to their lands and he'll explain everything else along the way. With a snap of his finger he releases the techniques binding sleeping beauty, and walks over towards him while concentrating his chakra to release the block he had put on the man's memories of summoning Toads. Reaching into his pouch, he grabs another of his burner cells and leaves it next to the man, Vegeta's number pre-programmed with a message waiting for him when he opens the screen instructing him to contact Vegeta. Afterwards, he texts Sado and Uta to tell them he was on the way back to the main base with a new member. Quickly making some seals, he bites down on his bottom lip drawing some blood that runs down the inside of his mouth, across the snake tattoo hidden inside his lip. With a slam of the hands and a poof of smoke, Geets favorite 3 headed Pit viper Tri-face appears. Vegeta jumps up onto the middle head, and the right head lowers down picking the man up. They then take off towards Golden Sabbath lands..

The sweltering sun was baking the small hut that Camille had set up, turning into something of an oven , as she woke up in a sweat once again a combination of nightmares and the disgusting humidity. Rolling over Camille sighed wondering if she would ever find inner peace within herself to rid the demon on her back, the memory of the village turning against her, and her sister being slain because of her. With a heavy sigh Camille got out of bed and put on her dirty clothes getting ready for the day, supplies were getting thin and she needed to restock, however the small change that she had was probably little more enough for a single hunk of bread. Packing her back, Camille noticed her armour was also looking worse for wear, a relic of an era she once wore proudly presented to her on her graduation day from the warrior training. Chips and nicks cut the armour while several small stains were starting to show in the fabric, leading Camille to grimace and sigh at the though of getting it repaired and fixed up. Throwing her bad over her shoulder she left the make shift hut made from earth and looked at a crude made that was made during her travels. There was a town to the east, close to the river, another village further west when she was travelling and another up north close to the border. Camille needed to clean herself up and so opted for the town close to the east, where she could also wash up in the river.
After a few miles she reached the river looking up and down spotting the town to the south. Taking a few moments to enjoy the quiet, the warrior washed up trying to at least make herself look presentable, and tying her hair up. Though many barely cared, it still didn't hurt to hide ones appearance, and Camille found that many had more faith in men carrying out their bounty's and missions than women. Following the river, Camille eventually came to the outskirts of the town, noting the neatly built homes, brick and mortar. This was a slightly developed town, no walls but not wood and straw huts, they may even have a blacksmith that she could barter repairs for. The town itself was quaint, in a self sustaining way where everyone had their own role, each building having its purpose and the river flowing next to it providing a fresh water supply. Looking up and down the back, Camille saw several chimneys with plumes of smoke, a few faces looking her way in curiosity, it seemed there wasn't many visitors that came their way.
It also didn't take long for Camille to wander around and find a job board, several small time jobs posted on the wooden posting. A few about fishing up food, a couple about looking after some children, but there was one, more than the others and probably the most dangerous at least by the standards on the board. Ripping the paper off took the job to 'scare away the dear eating my crops' Rolling her eyes, Camille would need to take a few jobs at this rate to pay off her armour repair, but it was a start. Looking for the darkest smoke along the river, Camille spotted a building with a water wheel on the side, a clanging and familiar banging of metal on metal. A burley looking man, covered in soot with a thick apron was pounding away on some iron, tools and plates hanging from the roof. Knocking on the door and entering Camille put her bag down.
Aye, what do you need?
Oh.. Uhm sorry one moment.
Camille dug around in her bag, pulling out the armour set and lifting it up, taking it over towards the blacksmith.
I need some repairs... its been a while and could use a touch up.
Taking the armour, he looked it over raising an eyebrow.
Not what I'm used to but I could touch it up, will cost a bit more than tools and horseshoes though you know...
He eyed her, clearly able to tell she was a bit broke for cash.
Well you see, I'm about to take this job-
He cut her off with a waive of his hand.
I don't work on promises. I cant waste materials if you don't come back.
Please, I've taken a job-
Waving the paper request at him desperately trying to convince him she was coming back.
Look, that will barely be enough to cover half the costs for the repairs I can do on this...
He put his hand to his chin thinking. However, if you are taking on jobs, there is something I do need help with. You take it and Ill do half your armour now, and half when you finish the job. Think of it as a good faith payment.
Camille was hesitant, she wanted to move on shortly but she also desperately needed her armour fixed. Nodding, she was left with little alternative and asked about the job. Alright that seems fair, so what's the job you need done?
The blacksmith nodded and waved her to come over to his table, wiping away mugs and plates. A map lay underneath of the various area's cutting off at the ocean south and a short ways into the land of fire.
Usually I get my shipments of iron from the Earthen Badlands, but somewhere in between, the merchants are getting attacked and less shipments have been coming through. The surviving merchants have described the animals attacking as giant rhinoceros beetles, but the way they attack, seems like they're co-ordinated. Usually animals like that wouldn't attack with co-ordination or even go after shipping merchants, there has to be something at play here. If you can make sure the next shipment comes through for me to talk to the caravan, Ill repair the rest of your armour.
It was a bodyguard duty once again, Camille having a pang of guilt over her history, failing to protect her charge and master. Swallowing the pit in her throat, she nodded slowly speaking softly.
Alright, Ill get your merchants. Ill wait for them in Tuareg and escort them the rest of the way. So how much can you do for the armour now?
The blacksmith chuckled. Well do you want the front or the back? Which is most important to you?
Puzzled, Camille though for a moment. Always face your problems head on her sister would say.
Front...
It took half a day but eventually Camille was ready to head out and look for these merchants.
Alright well Ill see you in a few days back with these Merchants. Who do I say has sent me?
You can call me Jonah, take my seal as well. Just as added proof.
Nodding and taking the small iron token, Camille set off.
He'd travelled, he hunted, he fought and now Sin found his way here. It was time to hunt the ninja clan who sought to steal his bijuu for their own nefarious means. They had hunted him, attacked him, killed civillians and even rose the dead but for what? No one who had gone through this much to take the beast could have any positive intentions.
Through these events, something had changed within Sin, though not only his powers but who he was. He no longer sought to hide and cower, he was no longer weak willed. Now he stood before a base camp as the hunter to exact his own personal justice.
Mission start:
-Destroy the community who hunted you bijuu
He gazed upon the fortified basecamp from the treeline, hidden from sight, planning how best to deal with the group. Before carelessly attacking, he needed to be sure these were the ones who had been hunting him. He held out his hand as his eye closed with sand spiralling in his hand as he sent it forth through the air to scour the village. Gliding over the wooden barricades the eye passed around the back of a hut as Sin searched for any sign of a threat. As he moved through he kept from sight where possible due to patrols of armed guards. Around the encampment he saw a series of weapon racks, containers of explosives and quite the number of shinobi. Making its way around the buildings, Sin controlled his sand eye to head to the large building where upon reaching it, the eye moved inside. Once inside, the gaze was set upon the several people surrounding the table looking upon what seemed to be a map. Sin tried to move the eye forwards but it wouldn't move. Out of his control the eye was turned to a large bearded man who seemed to be holding it. "What do we have here?" He growled before crushing the eye as Sin's vision was lost within the encampment.

Note: Only Sand users can use this jutsu
Sin now stood in the woods looking on as a mass of shouts came from within the encampment, warnings as men appeared on the battlements, spears and bows in hands looking out to the woods. The rattling of armour could be heard within. Their forces mobilised read for him. Well it would seem he had the right place. Before proceeding, he would release a special form of sand through the area to get a feel for how many were out there. He didn't want to be caught off guard, not with previous events. It would seem as though there were at least 100 within the base camp, maybe more. Well this would be fun.
(Sesshoku Taipu) - Concealed Sand Picture Cat
Type: Supplementary
Rank: C
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user will release a special type of sensory sand across a terrain and then upon contact with an enemy target the sand can alert the user of the location and presence of an enemy target. The sand can even detect invisible targets and stick to their body.
Stepping out of the treeline, Sin headed for the main gate. A volley of arrows and spears rained down on him, though they meant nothing. Colliding with his defensive sand and falling to the ground leaving Sin unharmed. Shouts of using explosive rounds and enhancing the weapons came from someone giving orders in the distance. Sin didn't care, he simply gathered sand in the air around him then with a wave of his hands releasing a gust of wind taking the form of a sandstorm, washing over the walls, shredding both wood and flesh alike. The bodies of those on the wall fell to the ground all around. The storm died down as Sin approached the gates now, the barrage was over.
(Fūton: Sasandan) - Wind Release: Sand Buckshot
Type: Offensive
Rank: A
Range: Mid-Long
Chakra: 30
Damage: 60
Description: After scattering and compressing numerous sand particles, Gaara then expels a giant gust of wind, with the impact of a bomb to increase the force of the sand, creating a large-scale sandstorm. This attack is powerful enough to pierce through flesh with ease, and is difficult to dodge, due to the technique's speed and size. An additional benefit of this attack is that it pushes the target away from the user. Despite lacking lethal potential, the true purpose of the jutsu is to manipulate and immobilize the target by manipulating the sand in his bloodstream. However, this can't be used offensively or for any purpose other than preventing movement. After 1 turn, the dormant sand becomes uncontrollable and causes no additional harm to the opponent.
Note: Only useable by Gaara bios.
He placed his hand on the gate. Simple wood with steel holding it together it would seem. Stepping through the gate, his body became sand, reforming on the other side as projectiles passed through his sand form. Before him were 30 men in rows of 6 forming a small battalion of armoured men standing before him blocking his path. The back row being archers firing a mass of shots in his direction, finding their home in the gate behind him. He smiled, glad he could strike the fear in them that those they needlessly slaughter had felt. While in his sand form, the ground breaks apart into sand, rising up as he walks forward taking the form of a shield and sword. As he slowly walks forwards the men begin to advance. One by one they slash and swing at his body, their blade passing through. Sin simply smiled waiting for them to realise their onslaught was pointless before stabbing them. Rather than aiming for their armour, he aimed for the weak spots, their necks, under their arms, the back of their legs, carving his way through them towards the rest of the battalion.
( Suna Tainai no Jutsu ) - Sand Body Technique
Type: Defensive/Supplementary
Rank: B
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 20 ( - 10 per turn )

Description: The user turns his own body into sand, or simply parts of it. While in sand form, he can cross long distances by soaring as a sandstorm. In this form, he is also invulnerable to attacks based on strengths and weaknesses of Sand. However, he is unable to attack during this form.
( Sanganken ) - Sandstone Fist

Damage: 40
Description: The user gathers sand in their fist which then changes form into stone-made weapons, like a mallet or a shield, perfect for close-range fighting. The created weapons are also very solid and durable. The user can throw these weapons and they retain their form.
The front line faltered but the second wouldn't prove more difficult. Their blades lit up with the fury of the elements. Fire and lightning roared from their blades along with wind enhancing the sharpness of others. Sin couldn't simply rely on his body of sand for this. Though his shield would rise to protect him, when it was a constant assault, his chakra would be rapidly drained if he kept relying on it. He would have to stop toying around. With swift hand gestures the ground itself would come to life as the dirt was broken down into grains of sand. This sand would wrap around the entire battalion, restricting their movements, preventing their onslaught, though Sin stumbled. He hadn't noticed before how much chakra it took to use this much of his abilities in one go. He couldn't stop, with a closing motion of his hand, he crushed them all in one fell swoop, crumpling their armour like it was as thin as a tin can as blood squeezed out of it. Releasing the sand they all dropped to the floor as Sin fell to his knee a little out of breath.
( Kyosei Suna no Jutsu ) - Greater Sand Technique
Type: Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short-Long
Chakra cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: The will manipulate sand from either his gourd or call it forth from the ground, using hand gestures if to control it as he shapes it and uses it to his needs. Other Sand users besides Gaara will need to form a handseal. The user can use it to restrain enemies, defend from incoming techniques, produce simple constructs of sand (which lose their shape if control is released), sand waves, etc. If he uses the sand from his gourd, the technique is both faster and stronger, gaining a rank in strength, this only applies to Gaara.
Catching his breathe, Sin took a drink from his container before placing it back in his pouch. Before he could continue his attack, from buildings all through the area, men flooded out clad with armour, swords, spears, bows and arrows, crossbows... all the weapons you could imagine. The only problem was, there were twice the number there were before and each of these now glowing with chakra as they channelled their elements. He couldn't face all of these. He could retreat but how far would he get. He weight his options until a man came from the building at the end of the row. The one who had crushed his sand eye. Clearly one of their leaders. He stayed where he was as the rest of the squad stood ready. T hen he called out, he voice echoing through the town, "Well well well, we spent all our time hunting the rat but came crawling looking for the scraps. Sin was it? Piece of shit. Thought you could come in here thinking it would be easy? Now look at you. Well never mind that, cripple him but don't kill him, have your fun boys." His voice bellowed through the area as the group of men smiled and slowly began to move towards Sin.
Sin rose to his feet. He thought about how much chakra it would take to bind them and crush them all like the previous squad. Would he be able to pull it off. He doubted it. That precise control was exactly what used the most chakra. Now their onslaught came with his chakra draining like a cup with a hole in it. If he tried to bind them, his and would be deflected, he was left defending. Well this sure did suck. He wasn't being hurt but surely enough, his chakra would be ran dry, and he would be left at the mercy of those who he thought he was ready to face. Kinda ironic really. Though not a lot he could do to change that now. Not until a familiar voice screeched in his mind. "Why don't you let me consume them? It's been me they were after. Lets give them a reason to fear what they hunted." It was the one tailed beast. He sounded rather excited to take eat them. Though Sin knew he couldn't let the beast take control, he never knew when he'd regain control. He couldn't afford that risk, no matter how tempting it was. "You're a stupid as ever kid, try this..." As he spoke an image flooded to Sin's mind as he fell to the floor of exhaustion.
He slammed his fist to the ground, cause causing a crack to shoot forwards through the ground passing through the mass of soldiers before him. They looked at it with confusion having no clue what Sin had just done. Sin only knew due to the beast within and that's what they were all about the learn. The ground partitioned, cracking open causing them all to fall in as the ground formed into the mouth of the Shukaku. The mouth formed closing on them all, crushing them deep within the earth. This left only Sin, tired and worn out, kneeling as he caught his breathe and the man who crushed his sand eye. His last remaining for turned and began to flee. Sin went to give chase but fell to the floor in exhaustion. He needed his strength to fight.
Half an hour passed before he was able to walk as he followed in the direction of the last enemy.

Mika arrives in a different location. The new location was different. He noticed large trees and vegetation. This place was beautiful. As he was looking up and a smile cracked on his face. As he was looking up a predator was sneaking up to him from the back since he has started moving forward. He didn’t know nor hear anything. He continued forward and the predator was still sneaking without making a sound. Another one was coming up from another angle(left) right along with another in front of Mika. He was looking forward and noticed the predator.
Mika stopped in his tracks after seeing the predator. He thought such a beautiful place this was but now it has its dangers to it. The predator makes its full presence known right along with the rest. They all pound their chest and let out a roar that shakes even Mika almost out of his shoes.
Mika didn’t have to turn around to know one was behind him so they all jumped towards him and he rolls to his left. They all slammed on the ground at the same time where Mika last location was. The ground it’s self cracked. Mika noticed this as he spun around looking towards the three animals.
“Three against one that’s not fair but y’all are beast so it make sense”
As he is saying this he performs some hand seals. He has the earth around the beast's arms and legs wrapped around them. They roar and try to remove their hands from the earth that has them wrapped up. Mika exhales water they would wash over them and make them even more angry. Mika stumbles back having flashbacks of seeing his brother. He thought this was his last day. He lays on the ground as the beast finally breaks free of the earth but they do have slight scars on their bodies but they didn’t slow down at all. If anything they became faster.
(Doton: Doryūha) - Earth Release: Earth Flow Wave
(Suiton: Taihoudan) - Water Style: Water Gun
They all rush Mika at once, roaring; galloping closer to him. They all hit him at once back to back to back. Roaring at each hit they land. They stop after three hits each noticing their attacks aren’t phasing him at all. There where Mika was is a puddle of water.
“To think you beast would stop after three. Smart but not smart enough to notice.”
One of them, after hearing Mika as if they had comprehended what he was saying, hits the puddle again. Mika laughs as he wasn't in the flash back anymore and ganged his composure again. Miks moves along the ground in his water form and reforms into his normal form. The beast was wet so he used this to advantage. Mika had to act fast so he used the fastest thing he had in his arsenal to slow them down and defend himself against them. He performs hand seals which he channels lightning chakra into a disk of light, three of them to be exact. He tosses them one after the other after creating them each. They hit the beast faster than they could react. They all take damage from them.
(Suiton: Mizu Kawarimi) - Water Style: Water Replacement
(Raiton: Raisogekishin) - Lightning Release: Lightning Rat Violent Quake
Mika tries to run in the direction of the forest. The beast all got up and rushed towards him. He couldn’t outrun them at all. He leaps up into a tree jumping from branch to branch. They start swinging on the branches as if they were at home. A branch Mika lands on cracks a little bit. He barely catches himself as he leaps off it. One of the beasts avoids the branch but another one notices the branch and avoids it also and same with the last one. These beasts had some form of common sense at least. Mika was trying to outrun them but started to slow down or they were getting faster either way he couldn’t say them.
“Tsk”
Mika was getting upset and seeing the beast catching up to him as he looked behind him ever so often. He had to defend himself at least and get away from these beasts. He had a few other tactics to try so he exhaled a mist from his mouth that would follow him and cover all the land around him. He couldn't see either so he had to jump down from the trees and conceal himself from the beast so the mist should work. Everyone once the mist starts coming out they lose sight of each other(Mika and the beasts). Mika stops exhaling the mist so he doesn’t block his view before him. He just needed the beasts to get confused and not see what he was doing next. He conceals his whole body by going completely invisible.
He rushes away from the beast with ease but to be sure he makes sure to watch every step to be sure he doesn’t step on anything that could alert the beasts of his location. He heads towards the east which is in a different direction than the beast that saw him last.
(Kirigakure no Jutsu) - Hiding in Mist Technique
(Meisaigakure no Jutsu) - Hiding with Camouflage Technique
“Dang”
He continues running invisible and the beasts finally lose him and they roar pounding their chest. Mika can hear their roar in the distance. He whips his forehead with his left back hand. He was finally away from beasts and continue on his journey. He deactivates the invisibility technique and sits and leans against a tree. He can see an opening before him but he felt a little tired. He sits there trying to catch his breath before he continues forward.

________________
Mika gets up and heads to the open he can see. He had to catch his breath. He gets up still looking back to make sure the beasts weren’t looking for him anymore. Mika heads out looking around noticing more trees and grass. It wasn’t as large of a large opening as he thought. He sighs a little bit as he hears a roar in the distance. This roar was different, it had a human aspect to it. There was someone walking towards him but they looked different. They had extra arms on their shoulders and a gray look to them. Mika steps back at such a freak.
“Humans, humans , humans, such little insects to us.”
They point at Mika as if they were talking to him directly. Mika noticed that he kept on stepping back. He didn’t want any dealings with this person or thing. They kept on coming forward so he had stopped before he ran into a tree which blocked him from moving further back. The thing launched at him expanding their right arm showing their full body. The expanded arm reaches out to slap m(45 damage) Mika down since the arm was coming down vertically. Mika has never seen such an ability. He tried to get out of the way to the left but the thing kept coming at him. It slammed on the ground and still pursued him. It was as if it was second nature to this thing to keep moving until the target wasn’t moving. Mika felt the ground shaking and rocks started to form from it. He had lightning surrounding his body. He disappears from the thing’s view, evading the earth spikes that were forming from the ground itself. Mika appears to the left of the thing before him.
“What I am is none of your business but I won’t be going back to that place. We are free finally.”
Mika was confused on why he said going back and we are free. He was wondering where but he didn’t have time to think about it. This thing wasn’t going to give up on its chase. The thing rushes at him and leaps in the air expanding its whole body and “turns” into a sphere(90 damage). Mika couldn’t escape the large size even with his speed so he activated the technique and did something different. He merged with the ground escaping the large thing as he drops and spins on the ground where he was before. Mika emerges from the ground. The thing had already been noticed somehow. Mika didn’t notice this because of his inexperience with such abilities that can detect chakra. He thought the thing was just looking around but no doubt the thing knew exactly where Mika was.
“Where are you from? What are you?”
The thing pursued forward as Mika was talking and was in his normal size again with arms on his shoulders held up. It reaches out as it say,
“The Underworld where you will be going.”
Mike dodges to the right but is captured off guard by an unexpected attack. The arms of the thing expanded and extended out quicker than he could even keep up with. The thing grabs hold of Mika lifting him in the air. Mika was struggling trying to get out the grips of this thing as it held him up in the air. It tosses Mika across hitting a tree(10 damage).
(Hiru Banshō: Bōka no Jutsu) - Leech All Creation: Attack Prevention Technique
Mika hits the tree and coughs up air. He was wondering about the Underworld. Could Hell be real? Is it really hot? Is Hell and the Underworld the same thing or different? The young lad could go on but he had to defeat this foe. As he got up the thing was already on go he released an unknown blue wall of energy(30 siris| 60 damage| Five meters each direction) directed at Mika. Mika reaches into his shinobi pouch and pulls out a fuma shuriken. He channels lightning chakra through it and tosses it forward at the wall of energy. The two clash canceling out but the thing was right behind it. Mika wasn’t surprised that the thing continued forward. With a few hand seals Mika touches the ground surrounding a radius of four meters in front of him lightning shocks everything in the area. The thing is hit with the lightning and falls on the ground receiving fifty damage since it does have a damage mitigation.
“Is hell real?”
“I… it.. it isn’t”
The thing couldn’t finish its sentence because of the shock its body had received. It was in pain. It didn’t have any means of healing so it was left with all sorts of burns on it.
Mika walks in closer to the thing and of course Mika size compared to this thing is like David and Goliath but not as large. He performs a few hand seals. And just as he was a meter from the thing he slams his hands on the ground. The ground under the thing summons an Iron maneki neko which wraps it up in iron chains and closes and drags it down into the underground. It was yelling and banging against the iron walls but wasn’t successful. Mika was huffing at using the technique. He never used a summoning jutsu before in battle. He was still learning his style of fighting and who he was as a person, no as shinobi. He walks away pondering what the thing was saying. He had to leave this area and head out to find more information on this.

Secure lodging for the night during travels
D-Rank Mission
Anji strode along the vacant path, humming a tune while twirling with his fans, practicing a dance routine he made up as a child. It had been long since he had begun his journey and he was exhilarated with his freedom from the overbearing clutches of responsibility and connection.
All he needed was himself and his fans, the wind blowing against his back pushing him forward. It was almost a majestic feeling. He breathed deeply as he continued forward. Night was almost here and he would need to either find a town or set up a camp. He laughed at himself at the thought of him camping.
“I don't camp unless absolutely needed,” he muttered to himself. Walking over the crest of a small hill, he saw a small town nestled within a beautiful menagerie of flora, different species of trees adorned the roadside and enclosed around the small settlement.
Briskly walking to the gates, he was almost surprised when he was stopped by a guard.
“The purpose of your visit?” The guard spoke clearly at Anji, still troubled at the abrupt halting of his pace.
“I'm just a simple traveler, seeking lodging for the night before continuing on my way.” He paused as the guard eyed him up and down “I must seem suspicious though?”
The guard waved him through “Somewhat, we don't get many fancy folk traveling alone in these parts, and trade has been slow due to several incidents with bandits along the northern path. Can never be too careful.”
Anji smiled as he walked through. "You are absolutely right, I'm sure those bandits will be dealt with sooner or later, karma is a bitch after all.”
Anji thought to himself as he left the guard to his duty Bandits huh? Fiddling with his fans at the plan formulating within himself, he continued through the town until he found the Inn. As he walked inside he was met with the pleasant aroma of cooking meat and hot bread, immediately making him salivate. He walked up to the young lady at the front counter
“Excuse me, is there a room available for the night? And might I say, those are some delicious smells wafting around.”
The young woman smiled at Anji “Why yes, we have room for you for the night with complimentary dinner and breakfast included. Here is your room key and dinner will be served shortly. Please enjoy your stay.”
The rest of the evening was quiet and filled with delicious food. Anji would have multiple servings of dinner, ready to pay some extra for the hospitality, leaving up to his room with a full stomach and a content grin on his face. Lying down on the soft mattress, he exhaled as he relaxed and quickly fell asleep.
C-Rank Mission
Anji woke the following morning bright and early as he always does, having had a restful night of sleep. He would follow his normal morning routine with some stretches and light exercise to wake his body up, before proceeding downstairs for breakfast.
The selection of meats, fruits and breads were delicious and he asked if he could request a small meal package for the next portion of his journey, which he was happy to pay extra for. Waving goodbye to the young receptionist, he exited the inn and made his way to the northern exit of the town. Taking his time as he stroll to enjoy the early morning sun. Bowing his head as he passed by the guard house he waved off their warnings about the heightened bandit activity, repeating his line about karma from the previous day.
Anji whistled to himself as he strolled down the path, the tune had been stuck in his head since the town before the last, where he had danced alongside a young musician who had been quite talented. A couple hours into his journey northward, he could feel a shift in the air. Through his proficiency with wing jutsu, the air and its fluctuations were something he paid close attention too. He was being watched right now, but he wasnt the type to give a performance for free.
"Greetings to whoever is out there, do not be shy! Anji Mito is more then happy to entertain you!"
Slowly from out of the trees on either side of the road, several men slowly made themselves onto the path. 3 in front of him and 2 behind him, each one of them with a wide grin and a chuckle. They laugh at Anji for calling them out and for him to hand over his money and anything valuable. This made Anji laugh himself, causing the bandits to lose some patience, asking him what was so funny.
"Value is a matter of perspective! For you, anything that is expensive is valuable, however to me, my most cherished valuable are these fans I hold."
With a flick of the wrist and a shift in stance, he gathers his chakra and channels it through his dominant hand, outstretching it backwards, waving the fan and releasing the chakra. From the end of the fan, a burst of wind shot out and collided with one of the bandits behind him, sending him flying into the ditch on the side of the road.
Without a wasted movement, he begun to spin and brought his secondary fan up in front of him, flicking his wrist again to open the fan and send a spinning slash of wind that slices up two of the bandits in front of him. Hearing the remaining bandit from behind him run towards him with a dagger drawn, calling him a bastard, Anji would twist his body into a spin with his secondary hand waving the fan along the ground, gathering dirt and small debris and kicking it up into the eyes of the bandit, blinding him.
This gave Anji enough time to move around the blinded man, having used the momentum of his spin to aid him, he grins as he thanks them for being a wonderful crowd and releases another of the slicing winds to take care of the remaining bandits.
As the dust settled on the field, Anji would begin to carefully gather up the bodies and lie them in a line on the side of the road. Stripping off a nearby tree branch and a decent size piece of bark, he would construct a makeshift sign detailing that these dead were the bandits causing trouble. Offering a small prayer, he continued on his way, humming the same tune as the sun rose higher in the sky.

D-Rank Mission
Anji continued north on his journey, still humming the jaunty tune that was stuck in his head. It felt weird thinking about the men he had just killed while whistling this happy tune, so it wasn't long before the tune began to shift, into something from much longer ago. When Anji had just started on his journey.
His parents had passed and in a letter left for him, had wished for him to go explore the world, to meet new people and enjoy his life. He had met a more seasoned adventurer who took him under his wing, showed him the ropes about shinobi skills and had even gifted him these fans. This man's name was Kenji, and he was the first person Anji had killed.
Not out of any maliciousness nor psychotic tendencies. It was self defense. Kenji had attacked Anji after finding out who his father was. Apparently his father and Kenji had been merchants together for a time, travelling and selling their wares all over the world, the best of friends. Until a business deal Kenji made with the wrong crowd, forced his father to turn him in to local authorities and Kenji had been locked up for years. Swearing revenge.
However by the time he was released, Anji’s father had already passed away and Kenji thought he had lost the chance for due retribution. Until Anji told him about his father and Kenji flew into a rage, attacking him. The fight was short, but it felt like an eternity when Anji, in an act of desperation, released a wind jutsu that slashed Kenji's neck.
Anji was young and blamed himself for some years after that. Even to this day, he wishes he hadn't committed that act, however it leads him down a path that he doesn't regret. He came naturally to the conclusion that death is sometimes a necessity, and as long as Anji didn't kill for fun or pleasure, but out of a duty to protect his and others freedom, killing might just have some justification in his books.
Of course, he'd rather try other methods before resorting to it, if it was possible. Some situations call for the drastic. And Anji had resolved himself for this occurrence.
D-Rank Mission
Anji sat back against the tree, eyes closed, enjoying the warmth of the mid afternoon sun. He was proud of the progress he had made today, so much so that he was now going to take the time to relax and eat his prepared meal from this morning. Lighting a small campfire with his jutsu, Anji would set up a small kettle to heat water, adding in tea leaves at just the right time to steep.
A cold breeze swept passed him as he bit into small toll of bread, stuffed with spiced meats and crispy vegetables. He couldn't help let out a noise as he enjoyed himself, putting the excess cured meat on a stick and heating it by the fire, the aroma wafting around him made him salivate even more.
A twig snapping somewhere close by commanded his attention as he turned his head to origin of the sound. His head whipped around to another spot as he heard a low guttural sound, followed by rustling bushes to his side. Reaching for his fan, he swiped at the air, releasing a small gust of wind in the direction of the noise, aiming to scare whatever animal that had stumbled upon him.
In that instance, silence hung in the air, the sound of water boiling and flickering flames dominating the immediate space. Not even the leaves dared to make a sound. Anji let out a hesitant breath as he lowered his fan. Was it gone?
He regretted asking the question as soon as he thought it, as from behind him a large boar charged out of the brush and collided with his side, sending Anji reeling to the ground. Frantically he reached out and grabbed the small tusks of the animal just in time, before they could do more damage to him. He winced as he finally registered the pain emanating from his side, every breath was like daggers piercing him. The dumb bore must have broken a rib or two, and with him weakened like this, the was little to no chanve of him overpowering the wild animal with strength alone.
Thinking quickly, and despite the pain, he twisted his body and shoved the boar away from him, grasping at his remaining fan, he flicked his wrist and swiped at the air, sending a gust of wind colliding with the side of the animal, pushing it further away. This gave him just enough time to collect himself and jump back halfway up the trunk of the tree.
The boar charged again, not backing down and attempted to knock Anji from his position by headbutting the base of the trunk, before shaking its head and circling back around for another attempt. As the beast charged, Anji swiped his fan again, sending a burst of wind against the boiling kettle, knocking it and the scalding tea inside it directly onto the head of the boar. The squeal of pain the animal made, left Anji feeling nauseous and he watched as the boar ran away from the site, its pain echoing through the forest.
Anji would remain in his position for a few minutes more, just in case before slowly and agonizingly returning to the ground, clutching his side gingerly.

Storyboard element custom B rank Farm the land
Ermac would see the sprawling nature and agricultural of the land called the green bit, Towering ancient trees stand like sentinels against a massive giant wall of literal golden sand. The air being a constant battle between the hot humid, rocky air and the cool misted spray of the great waterfall almost like the most like they both locked into constant battle. Ermac was a seeker of knowledge he wanted to ground himself more within the earth, As a wanderer he watch's the desert animals these would look similar to the camel though it was alpackers. These was majestic creatures moving around the tundra.
These was migrating into the green graze of land creating a sense of a sanctuary Ermac seeks the simplicity of some manual labour he wanted to feel the weight of the earth instead of the weight of history past, present and future. Ermac walking towards a borderland village which had few and little Terrance farms they seemed to be struggling to expand. The soil is rich but choked by thick roots and the encroaching sand. Taking a scroll out and using summoning ninjustu, placing his hand upon the scroll, Ermac would summon forth an assortment of farming tools. Such as balanced plows and scythes for the villagers to farm the land.
Ermac would help the settlers attend the land and this would take a physical toll but the satisfaction of completing the work with the other villagers able to work the field. Ermac stuck out like a sore thumb but the villagers didn't shun him away they needed all the help they could get. The blazing sun on his back made the humid conditions harder but more rewarding. The far waterfall in the background making rhythmic noises replacing the sound of blades clanging in battle.
One of the village elders would approach Ermac "your help is most welcomed and appreciated but with the Arali we hired merceries to cover and protect the land they have informed me they don't want you helping, i told them free work i wont shun" He stopped and seemed nervous Ermac got the message of what the village elder was conveying they wanted him to leave, seemed they felt he was a threat to their hustle and their mainstream of income.
Most bands of thugs and merceries would monopolise at times of peril and misfortune, Ermac didn't want to cause a ruckus he came to just ground himself to the earth and farm the land. He looked like an absolute monstrosity but he answered calmly "i shall finish the work out and head out at first night, this will be better for your village. I don't mean to cause awkwardness for the village" Ermac nodded and decided to now move the massive soil pile.
-some time later, light beginning to fade-
Ermac after finishing would see the villagers light fires and begin to settle down for the night though something alarming started, Ermac shifted to a stealthy stance and would creep through the night. This would be vitial so he could get the information he required. A group of 4 hooded men was sighted by Ermac around the newly cultivated crops.
This was the lifeblood of the community, Ermac had an suspicion that this could be members of the merceries that could be threatened and this could be their way to force Ermac out. Stepping out of the shadows Ermac would reveal himself to the group he would speak in a threating tone towards them "the villagers require them crops why don't you step away before things get messy" One of the men would step forwards "your presence is what we require gone, your threating our livelihood" He would snarl
Ermac said with a slight distain but mocking tone "you was gonna destroy the only thing that gives the village money to pay for your services? arent you lot bright seems like you could redirected your anger elsewhere... but dont worry i was about to head out until i seen you being shifty"
The men seemed puzzled, but embarrassed knowing Ermac was correct, He would begin to leave, the harvest was successful and the replanting for the future was secure aswell as nothing disturbing the natural order of things around here, Ermac felt accomplished and left
