The trees!

*Looks around hearing talking*..Holy shit is someone there? Helllo?!?! Fuck I said HELLOO!! >.<

Is that... a voice?
Is someone out there?
I swear, it sounds like that one girl from before.

HEELLO! DAMNIT! ....Damn fucking trees...damn fucking forest...*Kicks a tree and grabs my foot in pain* Fucking hard ass tree!

*the tree Yumi kicked was the tree I am hiding in the shadow, now she's jumping on me*
resist the pain... resist the pain..resist the..
GHAAA!
*jumps out of the shadow and runs away*

*Pauseing holding my foot in mid air looking in the derection julian was heading falls in loss of blance* Gah!! >.< *Lays there waveing my hand at te trail of dust Julian left* Hey wait!! Ah fuck!

later!

Nooo!!! I don't wannabe lost!! T.T

*a blood trace is going from the tree's shadow following me*

Oh hey! *Stands up dusting my slef off looking at the trail of blood then hauling ass following it not wanting to be here anymore*

*Walks alongside Koishi, with her hands behind her head as a headrest* Oi... can I ask you something?

That's never stopped you before. Go ahead. *absent minded*

I know how you decided to travel to Konoha a year ago... but I've done some traveling myself. *sits down by a large tree* The mob had been particularly bad around the time you arrived, but suddenly mob-related assassinations sprung up all over the place. There were two serial killers in particular, that seemed to have mob-ties.
*pauses* One of them described as a short woman who beheaded her targets, and had only ever been seen once by a child. That was you, wasn't it?

*sirs across from her on a tall rock and calmly speaks* Yes.

Shit, Koishi... You really shouldn't get involved with those people...

I have every bit of their respect. What you failed to look into was that the untouchable mob boss himself was executed the same way, and that new management had been appointed to his deserving daughter. By myself, of course. Naturally, they wouldn't let me come here.
"What makes you think you can make up the rules as you go, princess?!" They said to me. "Perhaps a challenge is in order." I told the boss. He sat up and clapped, laughing at the idea, and pulled out his katana. He charged at me, rather quickly... But not fast enough.
I presented his head to the entire gang, who had been watching and placing bets the entire time. I tell them that they were now under direct orders of his daughter, and left. They begged me to stay, yes... but I didn't. And now I'm here. *smiles*

Well, fucking hell. *laughs heartily* You're insane! I love it! Any other bloody adventures you'd like to enlighten me with? *rests her head on her hands*

You said something a while ago that piqued my interest. You said that there had been, perhaps another assassin for the mob? May I have the details?

Gladly, hun. There was another, knocking off anyone who owed the mob debts. The victims all died of choking or unnatural heart attack, again, with no sign of entry into the building. The choking victims had dark blue bruising on their necks in the shape of hands, but absolutely no fingerprints. Oddly, never a sign of struggle, either. Did you know anyone like that?

Not at all. In fact... *pauses* I was their only working assassin. I should undoubtedly mention, that was me as well. You could call it a secret weapon of sorts, that ability of mine...

Wait, seriously? Everyone was in a panic over two consecutive serial killers, when there was only one? You slippery bitch. *chuckles* No ability I've ever seen you use... What is it? Come ooooon, you can tell your unrelated sister anything.

Fine. *sigh* I can manipulate undead spirits. Most of them being people I've murdered, kept under my hand until my death. *lets out a sigh once again, this time her breathe can be seen, showing that the air around her is cold* Actually, I think I should tell more people. *does a hand sign, and a white, see through figure is seen beside her. After a few seconds, it clears up and is revealed to be a teenage girl with no arms or legs, light blue hair, brown eyes, and is gagged at the mouth. She wears a bloodied kimono, showing perhaps that at one time she might have been wealthy*
I like to keep this one as a pet... she's one of my favorites. *blushes, and pets the amputated girl, smoothing out her hair* I call her Dai-chan...

That's actually kind of creepy. But badass, I must admit. It takes a whole 'nother level to keep a quadruple amputee as a pet, but it's different. She's adorable.

Why, thank you. I'm sure Dai-chan really appreciates it. *Turns Dai-chan towards her and pinches her cheeks. Dai-chan blushes, and a faint giggle can be heard beyond the gag in her mouth*

*I was sitting on a tree watching you all the time*
*jumps from the tree*
*I have my white assassin mask on (just a white mask with a moon on it that is bleeding)

hmm... spirits for assassination? pretty clever for an assassin with such good behavior....
I always thought you where the type of assassin, who investigates on her victim first, talks to it, and gain it's trust and then kills it...but your little story surprises me....
seems like we both have a skill that is perfect for assassins... I can use their own shadows to kill them and you can use their spirits....impressive....impressive...
*suddenly forms a big sword out of darkness that slowly turns to normal metal and points it to Koishi*
trust me..it's nothing personal here, but I've got to know who you where working for in your former times as assassin... I am pretty sure you that kind of assassin that follows the codex to never betray the client... but I really have to know...

Hm? *raises eyebrow* His name was Keiichi Toruwara, leader of a large gambling ring in Konoha. He was a greedy fool; His time was probably coming anyways.
Once you interest the mob, yes or no isn't an option. I'd prefer to keep myself distant from those I have to murder within the hour. *smiles, and pets Dai-chan again*
