Pale skin over achromatic clothing, contrasting with the blacks and blending with the whites, splotched of gray where the shadows darkened the blanched fabric that covered the body, all of these things along with several other features made up the physical appearance of the seductive, young, Kaguya Nanbu. Unlike a lot of her clan members she did not wear red dots on her forehead to mark her origin, as she found it both ugly and useless. Her chestnut bangs hung in front of her soft features, covering her cheeks and hiding the sides of her pale face from view. Aquamarine eyes shimmered through the shadows cast over her face by the thick, brown bangs, glimmering in the soft light of the sunrise. Her exposed shoulders rolled backward as she worked her joints in preparation for a battle. She raised one hand up in front of her, a white sleeved glove covering her entire forearm and the backs and palm of her hand. Her fingers poked through separate holes, the bony and slim digits clenching into an iron-tight fist in front of her. The other, identical hand, hung limply at the curve that was her hip. She had defined curves, even though she was still a bit young. With a large bust that was hugged neatly by the dress she wore, and wider hips, she had an "appealing" figure as many men had told her. Her soft lips twitched at the corners, eventually moulding into a confident smile. Covering little skin was the dress she chose to wear. It was made of white cloth, with the inside lined with black cloth. It hugged her bust tightly, cutting off at her cleavage and dipping in just a bit at the center. The dress ran down her body, ending in a short skirt about a fourth of the way down her thigh. Half way up said thighs were the ends of her stockings, which were identical in color scheme to her dress. These stockings were paired with traditional sandals, causing a clacking wood sound as she took up an offensive stance.

She was on a cobblestone path running through thick woodland, surrounded by emerald blades of grass and maple wood trees everywhere. The sun was just rising, painting the mist and fog that had met somewhere in the middle to completely envelop the area in a cooling cloud of water droplets. The mist was colored pink from the beautiful shades of light that the rising sun scattered on the area, her own flesh taking on a tint of pink due to its pale and achromatic natural color. It was as if she had been a canvas just waiting for the world to paint her, she enjoyed the soft pink glow that her skin and clothing were now giving off, but she imagined that it clashed with her eyes quite a bit. Her mind was wandering, so she quickly shook it to get herself focused. Taking up the offensive stance once again, she blocked the pathway through the woods and awaited an arrival of someone worthy of her time, so that she could practice on a stranger. It was better that way, kept her on her toes and made sure she didn't know enough about the opponent to easily disarm and defeat them.

[[Sorry its short...]]

Saito Ryuhako, was a man who was nearly impossible to be mistaken for anyone else.His crimson red hair and his unmistakable Akatsuki cloak made him a somewhat unique individual.His muscular build made him a clear taijutsu user.His hair was slicked back and his marked headband was clearly visible, the long scratch in the cloud symbolizing his defection.He was walking along a cobblestone path on the way to a small village, as he decided he would collect some money and a snack simultaneously.He took little to no satisfaction from the landscape around him.He heard a distant clank forward in the path.He got an expectant grin on his face as he continued walking.He saw himself as a fighter, it was all he could do and all he would do.He saw a woman in the path at a distance and he continued to walk forward as she hardly seemed like a threat to a person of his caliber.Of course, Saito knew fully well looks were deceiving and kept up his guard in case of any sudden attack attempt on him.He stopped a few meters short and took a close look at the woman.She did seem appealing but Saito wasn't the kind of man to care about such trivial matters.

Her muscles were powerful, her bones strong and her stance nearly flawless. This girl was dangerous as she was appealing to those her age, but it didn't seem her opponent cared all that much. She could tell just by his cloak and headband that he was far out of her league, but how else was she supposed to grow? Nanbu smiled at the man, her right fist opening up and extending as if she were about to shake his hand. Then, suddenly, her fingers began to swell. The fingertips fired outward like bullets, blurs in the air as they dashed through the air toward her opponent. Five bullets going at top speed, the man was going to be preoccupied. While she figured he was significantly distracted, she charged. Suddenly, her upper arm's bone was in her right hand in the form of a short sword. She appeared to his right, ducking low and slashing high in an upward arcing motion.

Jutsu Used~
Teshi Sendan - Ten Finger Drilling Bullets
Rank:C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Teshi Sendan is a Taijutsu technique utilized by the Sound ninja Kimimaro. Using his bloodline abilities unique Shikotsu Myaku (Corpse Bone Pathways) ability, Kimimaro will use his fingers to fire his distal phalange bones as bullets. As the bones fly through the air, they will rotate and drill into their target once they make contact.

Saito watched the girl and was to a certain level, impressed.He watched her hand and as he noticed unnatural swelling he quickly activated his Lightning Armor.The bullets hit Saito's chest but did little more than leave small scratches on his chest.He turned his eye to the girl and a ball of lightning was released from his hand turning into three clones that retaliated against the Girl's melee attack by aiming at her arm,neck and stomach.Saito himself did little more sidestepping away from the girl."You are clever I won't deny this, but don't get cocky." admiring the girl's bravery if not foolishness.

Clan: Talis
Description: The user unleash a small ball of lightning that disperses and appears in the form of 3 clones of the user, when the clone is destroyed it explodes in a small lightning storm around the user.

Her attack had failed miserably, something she was hoping wouldn't happen. The bones had the drilling power to break through some metals, this man was quite the opponent. Now she knew for a fact that she was far out-classed, and out of her league. Then, the man produced clones from an orb of lightning, a peculiar maneuver, and one that she knew would affect the clones in a nasty way. As they assaulted her she jumped backward, launching her bone sword at the one in the middle as she cleared several meters, creating enough distance for her to prepare her next attack.

The clone that was hit and released a blast of electricity in the air, just missing Nanbu thanks to her distance.The other two clones charged in at her, one targeting her in midair and the other where she would land.Saito himself simply performed a few hand seals and started creating a spear from the nearby air.He aimed at the midair opponent and threw the spear, as the spear lost no momentum while it flew in a straight line forward.Saito then ran forward to the girl, hoping to close the gap in space between the two opponents.He again had admired her intuition and felt she might be a notable challenge if he were to go easier on her.

Can't think...]]


With the natural agility and reflexes that come with being a taijutsu expert and descendant of the kaguya clan, Nanbu brought her foot up and kick herself off of the advancing clone's shoulder. Using him like a launching pad, she sent herself spiralling even further into the air, landing in a tree nearby. However, as was the intelligent thing to do in combat, Nanbu didn't stand still for long. She launched herself from the branch nearly as soon as she landed, moving to another tree. From there she charged forward, landing to the left of the second clone and its creator, watching as spear-shaped mass of wind impacted with the tree that had been behind her, tearing it to shreds. Suddenly, a spike formed at both of her palms, extending to be three feet in length each, she was preparing to start fighting for real.

((What has been seen, cannot be unseen!))

Saito scoffed, he himself was a Taijutsu specialist and he decided to bring the fight into melee range, making dodging his attacks much more difficult as his current state made his physical abilities the very pinnacle of human standards.He ran toward Nanbu charging chakra into his hand causing his hand to become a bright yellow and spark with electricity.As he ran he stopped abruptly and planted his feet in the ground shooting his a blast of lightning at Nanbu at the same time, continuing his rush forward to try and catch Nanbu in the chest or stomach with a back handed punch.He was personally feeling insulted by not being able to land a hit on such an opponent.

The man was no slouch, she could have figured that out purely from his obvious rank. However, this level of power was unlike what he had seen so far. So many jutsu, all obviously very powerful, and he wasn't even close to sweating yet. She watched with wide eyes as the next attack came. There was no way to get out of both, this was a problem. She ducked and sidestepped to avoid the fist of lightning as it came past, being burned severely on her shoulder as it skinned her shoulder blade. Suddenly an iron-hard blow from the man's fist came in at her torso, meeting the bone spikes she just barely brought up in time to meet his fist. The bones were strong as steel, but this didn't stop her from being forced back a foot and a half from the pure power of impact. It didn't help that she was so light, she wasn't built for heavy hitting. Suddenly getting an idea, she kicked off of the ground and launched herself into the trees.

From there she opened the satchel at her waist that carried her secondary fighting element. Bone powder, made of shards of bone so tiny they looked like sand grains. However, this powder had a nasty effect that sand didn't, it cut anything it impacted with. She knew she would have a hard time keeping her distance, but she would have an even harder time keeping up with him in close combat. Suddenly, the shift cloud of bone power snapped forward like a whip, weaving through the branches before appearing from the thick forest just behind her opponent. She wasn't stupid enough to give away her position just yet. The whip-like cloud shot forward, lashing out at his spine.

Name: Chiri no Hone - Bone Dust ((Literally, Dust of Bone))
Rank: C
Element: Wind
Clan: Kaguya
Description: Using her ability to grow and regrow bones, Nanbu has spent quite some time harvesting bones which she would then grind up into a fine, dust-like powder. She keeps this dust in a satchel that she carries around her shoulder. Using her wind affinity, Nanbu can crush up bones and create more dust, or simply control the dust through the wind around it. She controls it in much the same way a Shukaku holder might control sand.

Saito pulled back his hand, and thanks to a combination of his Lightning Armor and the metal plates on his hand they only had a number of shallow cuts around the side.As he stood on the tree the chip hit his back but again thanks to his armor left nothing more than shallow cuts.He reacted to the pain by quickly using his foot to kick down the branch and bring him down simultaneously.He ran back and charged chakra into his hand.It took more time than the other attack but it was relatively quick due to the distance he was able to create using his lightning armor.His hand glowed a bright gold and great sparks came from it, arcing between the two plates on his glove.Saito pushed his hand forward and released a great lightning dragon from his hand incinerating the floor beneath it and flying toward the trees that he was on earlier, the static charge of the air simulating a loud roar.

Saito was panting after the attack and simply released one more ball of lightning from his body which became tendrils over his body whipping around in semi-randomness as Saito recomposed himself.The dragon attack took a bit out of him but he was still capable of reacting even in his tired state.

Description: Saito takes a deep breath and begins channeling massive amounts of chakra into his palm.Once he is prepared he shoots out his palm at the target and releases a huge brust of lightning which takes the shape of an asian dragon's head and causes large amounts of destruction by the physical energy behind it and it can even super heat metals hit directly by it.


Name: Raiden
Rank: B
Element: Lightning
Clan: Talis
Description: The user unleashes a bolt of lightning from there body, that spirals in a upwards fashion and sends four powerful spinning tendrils out of each of the users four sides, the blot will remain over the users body for 3 posts.

Nanbu retracted her dust and poised for another strike, just as she noticed a brilliant like crashing through the forest directly toward her. The dragon-like stream of golden light incinerated its surroundings, it was made of lightning. Without time to react at all, Nanbu formed a circle of dust in front of her, reinforced with wind chakra. The wind chakra may have been lightning's weakness, but that wouldn't help. She tucked herself into a ball, as bones began to sprout from her back and legs. She hadn't had enough time to escape so she would make due with defending against the attack. It was far too wide to jump to either side, and too strong for even her bones to take the full hit. Suddenly, a light began to glow upon her back. The light formed into two brilliant white lights, in the form of wings. She was a turtle with wings, a humorous sight no doubt. It was then that the lightning hit, she had barely released her seal by the time it was hitting her shell. Knocked backwards, she was sent crashing through the forest and back into the trail where the fight had started. Silt and grit covered in the area in a smoky cloud where she had landed, a crater formed beneath her.

As the silt and grit cleared away, her broken body was revealed. The shell of bone that covered her limbs and back cracked and crumbled, falling from her body and revealing an almost naked, scarred and burned, girl's body. She leaned upon the bone blade that she had formed to defend herself if he was going to show no mercy, blood trickling from her mouth as she coughed and struggled to breathe. Barely any of the cloth that had covered her body had survived, her hair was singed and torn from its ponytail, and the wings on her back fluttered and dimmed. Coughing one more time, she gave her opponent a defiant glare and stood up straight, the last of the cloth tearing itself from her body as she took up an offensive stance. Her ribs sprouted forward, blood pouring from her mouth now as she forced herself to go on. The ribs grew and expanded, forming into an armour-like plating over her torso and pelvis. She raised her blade shakily and challenged him once more with her glare, unable to utter any words.

This will be my end...But I will not go down without a fight.. She thought to herself determinedly, as she recalled her "father". He would have wanted her to live, not die in a stupid fight, and she knew she had chosen the wrong path this time. He would not have been disappointed in her, that she was sure of; he was never disappointed in her. He would only be saddened that he had not lived long enough to protect her, and he would take the blame upon his own, poor, soul. She didn't want that, she silently begged his deceased soul to be reasonable and blame her, as it truly was her fault that she would die then and there.

Jutsu Used~
Angel of Bones - Mitsukai no Hone
Rank: C-S
Range: Close
Mitsukai no Hane is a fuuinjutsu used by Nanbu. This technique is what earned her the title "Angel of Bones". It is a special seal that she developed, similar to the cursed seal. Each rank provides a new state and new abilities that she can tap into. They go as such:
C:
No physical changes occur in C-ranked, however, she is now able to seemingly glide through the air by creating platforms of chakra beneath her feet. Her speed will increase significantly, as well as her chakra levels. This state can be activated for five posts, but only used thrice per thread.

B:
In this state wings formed of condensed chakra will float behind her back. She can now hover up to twenty feet above the ground, as if she were flying. In this state her speed remains the same level as if she were in C-ranked state, but her chakra levels will double. This state can be activated for five posts, but only used twice per thread.

Name: Beast Mimicry; Turtle - Yajuu Mane; Kame
Rank: B
Element: N/A
Clan: Kaguya
Description: By utilising her ability to grow and shape her bones to her liking, Nanbu will first begin this technique by covering her legs in a thick layer of bone to provide more power in her kicks. She will then cover her arms in a thick layering of bone, and go down on all fours. Her spine will grow and expand, forming into a large shield-like shell on her back. This style focuses on body slams and defensive tactics.

Saito had regained his breathe and looked at the flying opponent.He smiled at his luck as now he had a reasonable advantage.He quickly performed a few handseals then gusts of air shot from his palms pushing him into the air.He was able to move in all directions freely, giving him a reasonable advantage over his opponent's current form of flight."Your body doesn't seem like it can last much longer." he noted his opponent, which as far as he knew was true.He had the disadvantage of not being able to perform anymore handseals while flying but that was also the beauty of his technique.

The tendrils on his back started whipping forward at Nanbu as his armor protected him from retaliation.He had the current advantage of range as well making the battle in air unfavorable for his opponent as it currently stands.He decided to see exactly what she can do in the air right now before he continued his offense.

[[This is me being lazy...]]

Nanbu barely had time to react, though she knew reacting would be nearly pointless anyway. Lightning tendrils struck her body, tearing at the fragments of bone that were left protecting her, and searing her flesh. With another cough of blood, Nanbu was to fall to the ground. There she lay, her hair sprayed out everywhere, with blood trickling from her mouth. Her body was motionless, she didn't try to breathe anymore, she knew it was her time to die.

[[Si, me too]]

Saito had landed and walked over to her motionless body."You are a failure as a ninja, you don't deserve mercy and now, you shall return to ashes." he charged lightning into his palm and as his hand glowed yellow and sparks flew from his hand.He punched the air toward Nanbu, sending the blast of lightning that would finish her off once and for all.
