There through the forest traveled a young man his slender and lean physique bounding from branch to branch. In passing he’d been practicing having the sword he held so dear reduced to that of the knife for the sake of his new skill set. Something his father had sure shown him in their time within Konoha. Ringo turned his attention to that of archery somewhat of zen sport to him and a sense of homage to that of a samurai’s practice more than just a man with a blade. Ringo held that as a sense of pride, had an onlooker come across Ringo in his new found state they would find his physique barreling through the air with his bow drawn launching spare arrows to and fro striking a series of targets set up about the forest. The sounds echoing about causing animals to scamper in the fear that they may be struck. Had someone come across Ringo within the forest they’d find he donned most of his typical attire the one thing that noticeably changed about his appearance was that rather than wearing his crisp white A shirt he’d transitioned from a white one to that of black now wearing a tattered scarf about his neck. This was a clear signal that he’d been out in the forest for quite some time. He’d simply been out in the forest hoping someone would come across him in hopes that he could hone his new found skills within combat.

VerinChan: Yawning from a sound nap in the training field the girl woke up slowly and ran fingers through her hair, her hand getting caught in the blue ribbon and tangles of her silky mop. “Tch tch tch owww.” She groaned and ripped her hand out as she fixed her blue ribbon. She stood up whipping her drool off of her mouth she looked around collecting her bearing and she yawned. “Okay well time to go back to training.” The girl never stopped training. She would’ve gone home to nap but her mother was to over bearing she didn’t find that relaxing at all nope instead she decided to sleep in here. She wore her normal ninja attire. This consisted of her net tank top and her overly sized jacket that one day she hoped to fit into. She wore her normal black spandex shorts and a white cloth over the front and back all being held up by her black utility belt. This fashioned two pouches on either side of her hips with her weapons and an apple in them. She wore thigh socks and calf high shoes. She wore half handed leather gloves. She walked around the forest when in the distance she saw someone She narrowed her gaze trying to see who it was as she walked closer. “RIN RIN!” She shouted smiling and running towards him waving her hand. As she got closer she tripped on a tree branch and her eyes widened as she face planted the floor.

In the moment that this young woman found herself calling out to Ringo she’d find an arrow hurtling in her direction not aimed to strike her in any manner but to startle her. In the moments that she connected with the ground she’d herself met with that same arrow that escaped his grasp. The arrow itself containing that of sticky note almost poking fun at the girl that found herself within the forest. Had she lifted her head to read said note she’d find it reading something so simple “Hide n’ Seek” Had she accepted his invitation at such a game she’d find his physique slipping into the very shadows of the forest. He was merely waiting for a sense of fun amongst all his training.

VerinChan: Kaylee blinked as she saw the arrow her golden eyes widened, tilting her head up she blinked. “I-I can’t track to save my life…” She stood up gripping the arrow. She spun it between her fingers… the angle in which it came from… She didn’t look in that direction yet, In fact she didn’t want him to see her coming. She dipped under the earth and appeared at the base of the tree in which the angle of the arrow had come from… She popped up in a bush so he couldn’t see her… but she looked up in the tree and the areas looking for him. “Where is he?”

Ringo smirked a bit watching the young woman’s physique move about within the forest. He’d been practicing a new trick or two and with that this young woman that found herself within his ‘hunting grounds’ would’ve been his prey. Had this young woman been incapable of using the sensing technique she would’ve been at a rather vast disadvantage. In those moments that she found herself going to hide within the bushes Ringo’s eyes would’ve changed their form of vision. His eyes now viewing the world in a new light. The few animals that decorated the forest were having their physiques formed and molded taking the forms of clouds yet holding their physique within his own mind. However Ringo hadn’t been around this young woman enough to vastly distinguish her chakra into the form of her own body. He’d simply call out to her briefly “I suppose i should count to ten huh?” His voice echoing throughout the forest bouncing from tree to tree.

VerinChan: Kaylee heard his voice echo. ‘Can he still see me?’ She asked… she created a clone in the bush… she sent the clone north ten feet as she walked south at the same time ten feet they both did the exact same thing walking the same pattern… same motions same eyes. She looked around for him… where on earth was he. She wasn’t going to hide from him… no she would find him… which she was at a severe disadvantaged. She had never done this before. The hunting the finding, she didn’t know how to use her senses like that… she knew chakra enhanced all kind sof things but if she didn’t know how to do it… she wouldn’t.

 

Ringo’s face lit up  like a christmas tree this young woman was certain she’d wanted to take part in the game at this point. In doing this Ringo would’ve notched a pair of arrows upon his bows thread and taken aim. Had this young woman forgotten his ability to plant a seal on most of the things he touched she would’ve been in for quite the shock. Ringo would’ve let the first arrow that rested upon the bows thread leave his fingers, sending about its way after the clone. The first arrow to leave his grasp would’ve held that of series of threads. The threads themselves made of chakra and with that their lethality lowered or in the hands of someone such as Ringo a tool for chaos. Had this young woman been incapable of seeing chakra she would find the unsealing formula that rested upon the arrow would’ve released that of another arrow. The two now hurtling side by side attached to one another via a single thread of chakra. If the clone hadn’t ducked or removed itself from harms way it would’ve found the chakra threads wrapping around its own neck as a means of suffocation. The arrow that remained in Ringo’s grasp would’ve been the one he was saving for the original. He’d been learning with his usage of the sensory technique, slowly but surely he was weeding out the things that didn’t hold the form a human being. The girl that rested amongst the forest with Ringo was surely at the time the only other human to grace his presence. It had become clear Ringo was learning to distinguish between what was human and what wasn’t and with this little game he’d hoped to learn to distinguish a clone from the original. In the wake of this he wasn’t really sure whether what he’d launched the first set  of arrows at was the original or not but it would certainly become evident if it’d disappeared from his vision altogether.

VerinChan: Kaylee thought about what on earth had happened to this kid where on earth did he go? Was what she saw earlier a diversion? Was she in a genjutsu. She held the arrow and she face palmed. I just gave which one I am away… She put the tip of the bow into the palm of her hand and she blinked in pain letting blood drip off of her gloves… “Well not a genjutsu.” She looked around and she shouted. Out. “I give up! I am no good at this game.” She groaned and leaned against a tree slumping down to the ground. “Mph.”

He’d truly been hoping the young woman that stood before him was going to be up for more than just a game of cat and mouse. However that arrow she held in her hand still bore the mark of Ringo himself having touched his grasp not long ago. He’d simply crossed his arms about his chest and pouted slightly “Well where's the fun in that.”

" there wasn't a sliver of hope for me in that game. You had complete advantage. Next time think of a game we both might like. " she smiled looking up at him and stood up she hugged him. "Good to see you."

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14.666666666666666px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Ringo raised a brow a bit as she wrapped her arms around him. He wasn’t exactly one for any affection at all due to his upbringing amongst his adoptive family. This made his ebony face light up a bit he was slightly embarrassed at this point and wasn’t exactly sure what to do. In response  to her hug he’d pat her on the head briefly before looking around rather awkwardly “I suppose I could say the same”

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14.666666666666666px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">She smiled and pulled back as he patted her head. She looked around. "So why do you sit in the forest by yourself all the time ?" Kaylee was genuinely curious and looked around it was peaceful maybe he was running from something.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14.666666666666666px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Ringo simply raised a brow at her question before looking about and in doing so he’d begin to speak “It’s just all around peaceful…” In saying this a few of the animals he’d scared off during his training had come back to nestle about within their usual places. One of which was a squirrel who in particular had taken a liking to Ringo. In passing his furry friend crawled up his clothing and perched itself upon his shoulder merely nibbling about a small acorn to satiate his hunger. “What’s not to like about it” He’d reach his own finger up to nuzzle against the squirrels physique.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;">

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14.666666666666666px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Kaylee damn near fell over from how adorable the scenario was. She threw her hands up slowly and in a dramatic manner. She then smacked her hands on her own cheeks swaying her Body back and forth almost unnatural giggling.
