The open road

Kamina was making his way towards the village hidden in the clouds. He had been walking for a few days on the main road now and it was really getting tiresome. But with high hopes he kept on moving towards the village, hoping that he would find some good prospects for recruitment in the village and maybe even get a nice soft bed to sleep in. With recruiting in mind he began to wonder just how he was going to convince people to simply leave the village. This all being said Kamina considered himself more of a special case having many reasons to want to leave while not everybody else would share his opinions and ideals... But on the other hand maybe he wasn't so special and there were lots of people who wanted to leave? Maybe he should of asked carmanjelo if he wanted to join on him on a crazy mad scientist adventure of joining a group and letting them all die in an attempted takeover and then walking around aimlessly... His mind was racing back and forth over every little thing imaginable as he walked down trail. With the gates of Kumo now in sight a devilish grin rose to his face as he pulled the hood of his black cloak over his head.

OOC:

Sanroku was standing on a tree branch as he kept watch over Kumogakures gates. It was true that the ANBU black ops has their own patrol group that sensors the area that boarders and outlines the outside of Kumogakure, this Patrol group is filled with ANBU members and ANBU trainees alike. The mission is simple, and it is to survey the mountain area in order to catch any intruder before they step foot inside of Kumogakure. Sanroku is good at catching foreigners before they reach the gates, he has even been considered one of the best due to his adept sensory abilities that is only getting better with age. As he watched the man walk forward and take down his hood, an evil smile was seen. Sanroku felt the nerve to talk after witnessing this, while still standing on the tree, Sanroku was crossed armed as he said. "You don't have to be a sensor to know that smile has bad intentions." Sanroku jumped down while still being a good distance away from the intruder, and to be precise, Sanroku was standing just a mere 15m away from him.

Sanroku wasnt able to be identified by facial feature at all since he was sporting the Jabbawockee Mask given to him by the X- Raikage in order to enter the ANBU training program. The young shinobis Kurai Katana that was grabbed in order to patrol the area with more protection. The long sword was strapped to the young shinobis back, but because of its size relative to his own, it wasn't easily concealed thus it will probably be spotted wherever he goes. To finish off his apparel, Sanroku had the Chūnin Flak Jacket which he designed himself thus making it that much more difficult to determine what village he represents, but because he Sanroku showed up so close to the Kumogakure Gates, it would be no secret who the young man allies with.

Kamina was still walking down the road when he spotted the ninja on top of the gate. He moved his body slightly but not his actual position which was of no immediate concern to him, but he spoke too soon. Now the boy had jumped down from the gate and stood on the road looking in Kamina's direction. This man-child was wearing a mask so he couldn't make out any facial features, as such Kamina wasn't all to sure if this was a man or a child, he could be a small disgruntled imp of a man whose mad at the world for being bigger than him. The possibilities were endless he thought... Well not really, there were only like four or five different possibilities but they weren't very interesting so Kamina simply pushed them out of his mind. During all this thinking Kamina just kept on walking, mostly because he himself was now distracted by his thoughts, but without missing a beat and staring intently toward the ground he walked up to within 5 meters of the guard and had already angled his approach slightly to the right so he would breeze right by him. No doubt this would cause some hostility, but if was indeed the angry imp thing then hostility would be impossible to avoid as Kamina's six foot frame was no doubt a very large trigger in the dwarve's mind.

Sanroku simply starred at the man as he kept on walking. What an odd man indeed seeing as he is walking with his head down, Sanroku quickly thought about the low confidence level this shinobi must possess to not even look up. Then again, the man kept on walking straight ahead and angled himself to walk directly passed Sanroku without answering his question. The young shinobi stayed with his hands crossed as the man walked nearer and nearer. Sanroku knew what his job was as a guard for Kumogakure, and it was certainly not to let shinobi such as this enter the village with such freedom. Kumogakure is the most protected country in the shinobi world and it has one of the largest armies, it is because of that, that Sanroku can't help but to follow the call of duty. As soon as the Enemy got about 5m close to Sanroku, Sanroku waited for one more step to be taken before he used a surge of electricy erupted coming from all directions of the young shinobi, this was the Chidori Stream.

A technique utilized by Sanroku in order to prevent unauthorized shinobi from getting too close to him. This technique mixed the sensor technique and the Chidori into one and it needed no hand sign so it was just as easy as the enemy reaching the destination that caused the trigger of attack. This attack will certainly shock the man till his nerves give out and after that, he would be taken into custody. Sanroku would just stand still with his hands crossed as the Chidori Stream spread to reach 10m outward certainly in the targets range since the enemy was within 5m.

Jutsu Used:

Kamina's gaze drifted towards the guard as he stepped closer and closer. As it would seem getting in undetected would be too much to ask for. He expected some kind of reaction from him but not quite the one he received. There were no handseals so his time to react was cut severely but his suspicions were confirmed when the hairs stood up on the base of his neck. Assuming the worst situation possible it was going to be a raiton based attack, given the fact that he waited till he was this close it was likely an attack that only had a high success rate when in close and little splash damage. Even though he had assumed the incoming attack Kamina couldn't fully dodge it, his left hand raised up to form a single seal but in that time a multiple arcs of lightning were incoming. The body flicker jutsu was definitely a lifesaver here as he was 'poofed' 30 meters back away from the village and more importantly away from the killzone.

When the smoke settled Kamina's cloak was also smoking and was effectively ruined. There was also quite the pins and needle sensation in his left shoulder it no doubt took in some of the shock. The ordeal was a lot closer than he would have preferred it to be. "Well that was rude." he stated blatantly. Trying to work the tingling out of his shoulder he rotated it once before ripping the now tattered cloak off of him. With the cloak now gone it revealed a tall man of average build. Dark hair rolling down halfway to his eyes and pair of glasses gleaming in the sun. On top of his clothes was his old Anbu Uniform which bore the Sunagakure symbol on it. A tattoo of Sunas symbol was also visible on his shoulder. "Well I suppose you wont let me just walk in..." Kamina made 5 quick handseals in a blur of a motion. The end result was a somewhat... gross. Blood seeped out of the pores in Kamina's hands and began to take shape in front of him. In a matter of seconds a clone of himself was standing before him ready to take the reigns of the skirmish while Kamina began to flee into the woods while leaving his clone behind to occupy the authorities. The was ready to hold the line.

(OOC: Ill continue posting as my clone)

Jutsu and chakra used:

With the real Kamina now safely hiding in the woods the clone could begin his attack. He was about to leap for it when a man interrupted with a few words of wisdom. These ever so wise words may have stopped a conflict before it had started but sadly enough the first swing had already been made. While the new man had distracted them the clone decided it was time to strike. Due to the a composition of this clone it was able to suck blood out of his left and pump into his right. The end result of its effort was a larger arm and a fist the size of a small boulder. After this happened the clone dashed forward as fast as it could. Its arm cocked back and as it neared the boy who tried to zap Kamina it shot its large fist toward the boy in an effort to knock him out with one punch. If it connected the punch would land directly on the boys nose and would more than likely do a considerable amount of damage but nothing life threatening. Luckily enough for him there was a witness and killing this boy wouldn't be the wisest of things to do with witnesses around.

The masked man must of been distracted by arrival as he didn't even react the to the incoming punch. The giant fist swung down hard on the mans nose, sending his whole body flying towards the ground. The boys head cracked against so hard Kamina was surprised his head didn't split open. It was certainly a fun sound to hear and brought a smile to the clones face. With the boy now knocked out and lying on the ground Kamina thought it would only be fair to loot the kids body seeing as how he wrecked his cloak. The clones arms returned to a normal size and it looked human once again before bending down and removing the boys sword, taking off his flak jacket, the weird mask, and emptying his pockets of any ryo they held. The clone looked back over to the man who was simply watching and gave him a courteous bow before retreating off into the forest to meet up with the original.
