To Market To Market (Open)

[Selena]

(Well seeing as this thread isn't in the Hakumei hideout, technically, you could have a character from somewhere else join)

After her little spat with Miyako the other night Hinata had decided to come to the village and, well, shop. What was she shopping for? Some clothing and maybe an extra pair of shoes, but mostly ice cream. I giant container of ice cream, preferably Turtle Tracks or Cookie Dough. She couldn't help but grumble to herself, ranting. "Stupid Miyako. Who does he think he is? I don't care if it was a joke."

She huffed but managed a smile when the kitten in the pouch at her throat licked her cheek. "Well, you like me now at least." It wriggled some and perked up its ears, staring up at him with a 'nyaah?' The cute sound made Hinata giggle, and it wasn't long until she had a skip in her step. Who needed him while she was shopping anyways? Besides, he'd probably try to drag her to the ramen store and then leave.

Well sheeeee was going to have a good day of shopping! Little did she know that there was a disaster just waiting to happen, and when Ruion discreetly materialized around her neck a dog just happened to notice. It went berserk, barking crazily and straining on its leash.

The moment it broke free it was charging straight towards Hinata, drool flying from its mouth. "AAAAHHH!" With a hiss Ruion sprang at the dog, running over its back before disappearing beneath one of the stand's tables. The dog was quick to follow, and it chased her out from beneath them to ontop! If she wasn't in a public place then she could easily poof! But with all these people around that wasn't something she could do!

Meanwhile Hinata was left standing there, her face very pale. Well this was mad news.

[Moongem]

A Man with purple hair noticed the dog and cat turned around the dog brushed past his leg, He turned his head following the cat and dog with his eyes, before looking back at Hinata, "Umm... Your cat kinda..." Noticing he was pointing out the obvious he turned around towards the dog and preformed the Shunshin no Jutsu, appearing in front of the dog putting his foot gently on its face, stopping it.

[Selena]

Hinata's face flushed bright red with embarrasment when a man suddenly spoke to her, though he didn't seem to realize that Ruion wasn't an actual cat. Of course, that sort of thing would be hard to tell with the way she had been running. The moment he put his foot on the dog's face Ruion turned back around and bolted back to Hinata, scrambling up her pant-leg and clinging to her shoulder for dear-life. During the time the man was looking at the dog to put his foot on its face Ruion took that chance to poof. "Eh... Geh..." ARE YOU STUPID!? Someone could have seen that! There could be Akatsuki for all we know! Little did she know that the purple-haired man was an Akatsuki.

Instead of risking being confronted by someone she simply grunted a thanks and then turned around, hurrying away. If the man had seen Ruion poof he would probably follow, but Hinata wasn't willing to risk hanging around to see if he had.

[Moongem]

(My guys not in Akatsuki) The purple haired guy looked Hinata as she walked away and removed his foot from the dogs face and smiled, "I'm sure you have somewhere to go little fellow." He smiled at the dog and walked forward, curious about the cat and the girl. As he followed her he placed his hands in his pockets. The immature smile stayed on his face as he continued to follow her looking through his purple bangs.

(I'm gonna throw another one of my chars in here, he's in Akatsuki.)

A man with Auburn hair watches Hinata and the purple haired one, he places his fingers on a button on a com-link he had around his neck, "Leader... Iv'e confirmed TWO targets in the Flooded Ocean Village. One, Hinata Amaya of Hakumei Seidei. The other is an interesting character... it's the Kage of Onigakure, Uchiha Mazuku." He waits for the his leader to talk and realizes he's out of range. He sighs and removes his Akatsuki Robe and changes into village clothing and begins stalking the two.

[Selena]

(pbbbt. I got the two mixed up. Sorry. xD)

When Hinata realized she was being followed by not one, but TWO people, including the purple-haired man, she increased her pace, deciding it was time to go "home". She whispered quietly to the kitten in the pouch and stroked its head. "Auntie Ruion was being stupid wasn't she? Now look what happened."

Auntie Ruion? A mental snort came from the demon and she stealthily reappeared inside of Hinata's shirt, acting like she had simply crawled into it previously. I beg your pardon but the only sibling I have is definitely not someone for children. That was news to Hinata. Ruion had never said she had a sibling. "A sibling?" She stared down at the head poking out of her shirt and blinked. Yes, a sibling. Stupid ice-tiger nearly flattened the whole village once! Hinata blinked again. She hadn't ever heard of any rumors about an ice-tiger. Oh you haven't heard of him because he was much smaller than me. The little runt. Of course he caused a lot of trouble. She wrinkled her nose and huffed. But what do I get for trying to keep the village from being flattened!? I get sealed! Inside a human no-less!

Hinata flinched and Ruion immediately began to frantically appologize. She just drowned out the chakra cat's mental chatter though and sped up into a jog after looking at a clock, trying to look like she had somewhere important to be. "You really are stupid." Ruion hissed and promptly poofed. "Very stupid."

(And I've decided to throw a little twist into Hinata's life. -snickers- Once a month she shall get cat-like features due to... hormonal imbalances... xD)

Unfortunately for Hinata even if Ruion was safely gone there was one thing that would give her away. A long lion's tail was now hanging behind her as she jogged. The moment she noticed it she groaned, curled it around her waist like a belt, and hoped to god that she could get back to the hideout and lock herself in her room before anything else besides her tail appeared. Stupid monthly change. Of course, if she was caught, she'd be one pissed off, cranky, woman. And women were not to be messed with during certain times of the month.

[Moongem]

Mazuku saw the Hinata's tail before she wraped it around her waist. He turned and saw the man with Auburn hair. The one with auburn hair walked past him and started to sprint after Hinata. Mazuku relized that Hinata must be like him... A target of Akatsuki because of a sealed Demon. He glanced forward and dissipated into air.

[Selena]

When Hinata realized that someone was indeed following, and now at a sprint, she suddenly poofed! Or at least, it seemed like she poofed. In her place was, well, a log. It wasn't really good for hiding in a village, but hopefully it would confuse her pursuer long enough for her to get away. As soon as she figured out which direction the hide-out was from the roof she was now on she bolted, hissing and growling when she realized she now had ears. Ruion. Why do you do this to me?

I don't choose to do this. It's just something that happens. The demon snorted, and then, in a reckless attempt to slow down the man, a huge chakra-lion formed smack-dab in the middle of the road in front of him! TAKE ONE MORE STEP AND I SHALL KILL YOU! The towns-people scattered, some screaming, some frantically yelling to each other. And through it all Hinata just face-palmed, still running for the hideout.

"Retard."

-snort- You're the one who's changing, not me.

[Moongem]

The man shot his palm forward, "Shinra Tensai" He would mutter as a large wall of gravity flew towards the chakra lion. He jumped over the wave of gravity he just used and continued chasing Hinata.

[Selena]

Seeing as gravity doesn't really effect chakra Ruion just spun around and snapped her humongous jaws at the man chasing Hinata. A deep growl rumbled up and she sprinted to stand in front of him again, tails lashing. I am your opponent! A huge blast wave of chakra erupted from Ruion's jaws as she roared, blowing everything in its path back.

As Ruion tried to buy time Hinata finally reached the gates of the hideout. She shrieked a single word and then hurried through. "HELP"

[Moongem]

Takai landed looking at the chakra cat calmly, "Kitty kitty..." He said as a black blade slipped down his sleeve. "Chakra Absorption Blade." He stabbed towards the cat. (Is short... XD)

[Selena]

Ruion growled, feeling a pull of chakra similar to when she had been sealed. She immediately sprang back, growling. I've bought all the time we need. Then she just dissipated into thin-air, with only the faintest hint of her chakra left. Hinata, mean-while, had managed to retreat into the hideout. She had wrapped a sheet around herself, gotten something from her room, and was now hiding out in the bathroom. If the man tried to follow her he'd get the full wrath of a woman on her period dealing with it. (lol -giggle-snorts- Just let him try to follow! Kitty-girl on period... that's already cranky... not a good combination.)

[Moongem]

He stops out side the gate, " So this the Hakumei Hideout..." He jumps onto a nearby tree and surveys the area he notices another member of Hakumei with green hair.

Kaseo saw his Hakumei peer Hinata dart in and call for help only moments before, so he slowly followed her voice and approached the bathroom slightly opening the door, peeking inside.

[leeshao]

Rygo stood on the gate of the base over looking what was going on. He said to himself, "Well their's a lot of people here all from different areas glad I didn't leave I love watching random things happen." Rygo then jumped to the roof of the base, and laid there waiting to see what would happen.

[Selena]

When Kaseo opened the door to the bathroom Hinata freaked. With a hiss she lashed out at him, for her nails were now claws, but they contacted with the door with a dull 'thud'. With another hiss she dragged them down the door, the sheet having been dropped the moment she entered the bathroom earlier. "Don't you have any manners?" Her voice was rougher than usual, though it was no surprise. The only thing about her that said "Hinata" was her hair, body-shape, voice, clothing, and eyes. The rest of her was... well... very much like a cat. "If you don't want me to eat your face Kaseo I advise leaving me alone and not telling anyone about this." Her tail lashed violently behind her and she dug her claws into the door even more, eyes narrowed into dangerous slits.

It seemed that if he didn't close the door very quickly he would soon have to think about getting stitches in his face.

[Moongem]

Kaseo steped back from the door, "Pht, YOUR the one that yelled 'HELP'' Kaseo buried his hands in his pocket and walked away.

Takai saw Kaseo move from the door and leaped from his hiding place near the gate and dashed near the door pressing against the wall placeing his left ear against the wall listening for the cat demon.

Mazuku reappeared out side the Hakumei compound, through his eyes, The Sharakugan, he could watch Kaseo, Takai, and Hinata without turning his head.

[Selena]

Hinata snorted and then pointed towards the entrance. "Well that was because there was an Akatsuki chasing me!" He's still out there. If Hinata could have she would have paled, but the fur covering her prevented it. "Damnit. Ruion says he's still there." She snatched up her personals, holding a packet of, well, pads in her hand like a weapon. She didn't have much else on her at the moment and she doubted an Akatsuki, much less a guy, would want to be pelted with them. She snickered faintly at the mental image and then dragged her claws down the door again.

"Stupid Akatsuki~." Her voice took on a playful tone and she let out a purring-meow. "Come out and play with kitty." Her voice suddenly turned into a snarl. "Because kitty is hungry!" With instinct taking over consciousness she sprang out of the bathroom into the hall, looking for all the world like a bi-pedal lion about to finish off its kill. Yet again her tone took on the dangerous playful tone, her tail waving from side to side tauntingly. "If you play nice kitty promises to make it quick and painless~" She then began to stalk down the corridor, ears alert for the faintest of sounds; nose flaring for scents; eyes peeled open and pupils fully dilated; and whiskers twitching, able to sense the smallest of vibrations; even her mouth was parted slightly so she could taste the air around her.

"Come out, come out, wherever you are." Another playful purr erupted from the cat-woman's throat and her fur seemed to crawl with each shiver that went through her body. There was one thing about this time that she liked, and it was the thrill of the hunt. "You've been a very bad boy." She sprang up onto the couch and crouched down on it, ready to spring, ready to pounce, to kill. After a few moments of panting breath a faint ripple of chakra became visible around her.

If ever a woman was dangerous, Hinata was thrice that today.

[Moongem]

Takai pops his head from the corner muttering "Whats up?" His Rinnegan glaring towards Nekonata (Lol) "Its time for you to come with me."

Mazuku watched in the distance as the Akatsuki member engaged Hinata.

[leeshao]

Rygo just laying on the roof hears all the fuss down below, and decides to look in the base from where he's laying near the edge of the roof. Rygo said, "Hey guys whats all the fuss." Rygo's eye's widened when he saw a cat girl on the couch, and fell off the roof, and hit his head on the ground being knocked out.

Shang appeared behind Mazuku, and said quietly, "I found you Sensei what are you doing out here." Shang looked at what he was doing curiously."

[Moongem]

Mazuku's eye's grew comically, " DAMN." Mazuku turns his head, "This is where I hang out when I don't want to be annoyed by the villagers... and I discovered a very interesting subject... horuda-oni (Demon Holder) Like me..." Mazuku looks forward remembering his run in's with Akatsuki because of Katsmaru.

[Selena]

Hinata snorted when her eyes finally locked onto her prey and a devilish, and almost flirtatious, smirk crossed her face. She purred again and slowly slid off the couch, all senses trained onto the man. "I'm. Not. Going. Anywhere." She suddenly snarled and lunged, only to dissipate and then reappear behind the Akatsuki after a few quick hand-signs. The moment she appeared her claws were poised at his throat, muzzle held close to his ear. A soft and satisfied purr erupted from her throat again and her tail curled around Takai's waist possessively. "You are my prey." There was nothing flirtatious or seductive in her movements now, they were simply the graceful movements of a cat toying with its kill. "Poor little mousy, trapped by the cat. Where ya gonna run? No place to hide, only to run. And when the cat is almost always successful in the hunt."

She was toying with him, simple as that, and she was having fun doing so. She purred again and pressed her claws lightly against his throat. "Mnn. So tempting to just kill you... but... what fun would that be?" She then sprang away, hiding in the shadows. "Run little mousy. Run." The others around her were nothing. All that mattered was the hunt. "Run." Her voice died down to a whisper. "I'll give you a head-start."

[Moongem]

Takai stood his ground and looked forward towards Hinata, "Awake or not... your coming with me to Kaji-Sama. We will extract your little cat, and use it for our own purposes... Ruion? You called it? Prepare to say goodbye to your cat, Hinata-Chan. Shinra Tensei (神羅天征)" He shot his palm out as a wall of Gravity split the entire room and blasted towards Hinata.

[Selena]

Hinata, once again, was gone from her previous position and behind Takai, avoiding the gravity wave at the same time. "Oooo mousy has spunk!" She purred in his ear again and nipped at the man's shoulder playfully before disappearing into the shadows again. "Ruion cannot easily be parted from me. She clings to me, unlike most demons." In her current state she could have easily wounded the man fatally, but she preferred to play with her prey first. After a split second of debate she appeared in front of him, a finger on his chest. "Meow." Her voice was low and rough, as if she was trying to seduce him into submission. Before he could do anything she growled close to his ear. "Come get me." Then she was gone again, and the faint sound of some four-legged, pawed animal dashing away down the hall echoed throughout the compound.

(-Giggle-snorts- Hinata is so fun to play when she's like this! xD)

[leeshao]

Shang heard what that guy said an started panicking, and yelled, "HE'S MY BROTHER'S FRIEND IN AKATSUKI!!" Shang said, "Sensei did you hear what he said." Shang then looked around the gate seeing the guy in the house, and Shang looked down to see that his cousin was knocked out on the porch. Shang laughed. Shang looked up again, and saw another figure in the house some kinda cat figure.

[Moongem]

Mazuku places his hand over Shang's mouth "Shh!"

Takai closes his eye's "Chibaku Tensai!" A small black sphere apperes in Takai's hand and he tosses into the sky.

Chibaku Tensei (地爆天星)

Using Deva path, Nagato creates a dark black sphere of gravity that is thrown into the sky. The surrounding earth, including forests and mountains, is collected into a single point, piling on top of one another until it creates a large sphere. A large crater is left where the earth was collected from. Pain notes that the Sage of the Six Paths had mastered this technique to an extent that he created the moon itself, and that his version paled in comparison to it. Despite its admitted inferiority, it was still strong enough to both hold out against Naruto's Six-Tailed Fox Menacing Ball and incapacitate Naruto and trap him in his six-tailed transformation. Although, it failed to contain Naruto when he slipped into his eight-tailed transformation. The Deva path must be brought within close range of Nagato before it can use the technique, and performing it puts a great strain on Nagato.

[Selena]

When Hinata realized that the technique Takai was using could bring down the entire complex she snuck around behind him, using the shadows to her advantage. Then, once she was behind him, she stood up and tried grab his waist with her hands, hissing in annoyance. "Stupid mouse. You have to play fair. Otherwise..." She purred in his ear and moved her hand slowly up his arm to grab his wrist in an attempt to stop the technique. "Otherwise I will kill you instead of letting you go. You're starting to bore me little mousy."

[leeshao]

Shang queitly stood and watched the two ,and said, "Hmmm cool crazy cat girl, and the guy from Akatsuki that looks like an evil guy on bend of destroying the earth, but oh well guess I don't want to die, so I'll just see what this guy does, and once he leaves I'll follow him to the Akatsuki base just, so I can find my brother, and tell him what my sister said." Shang stood there waiting for the Auburn haired guy to make his move, but just waiting to see when he'll leave towards the base even though he said that he wouldn't leave with out getting a hostage, but he'll probably have to if someone else shows up.

[Moongem]

Takai's Chibaku begins to pull the ground from the earth's crust, all teh nearby trees and lakes begin being absorbed by Takai's Chibaku. The Hakumei compound starts to shake as the Chibaku Tensai begins ripping it from the ground.

[uzumakiuchiha]

There would be a small poof behind Takai. Miyako appeared behind him, his eyes blazing anger. sending a chop to Takai's neck, rendering him unconscious. as he fell to the ground Miyako looked around at his now destroyed hideout, sighing. He turned to Hinata, not noticing the changes that had occurred. "are you ok?" he asked, not waiting for a reply before grabbing Takai's limp form. He walked to the edge of the destroyed estate, and doing something unexpected: flinging the unconscious body into the distance. after the body disappeared from sight, he made handsigns, putting a new genjutsu around the estate, protecting from enemies

[Selena]

Hinata blinked and then hissed in annoyance when Miyako stole her prey from her. Yet another strike against her! But... still... Her playful nature sparked up again and when he asked if she was okay she "danced" over to him, trailing one of her claws down his arm. "Of course I'm okay. A bit annoyed because you stole my prey..." She trailed off and lowered her voice into her seductive yet playful tone. "Mmn... but... you'll do just fine." She leaned towards him and growled in his ear then nipped playfully at his shoulder like she had done to the Akatsuki. "Meow."

[Moongem]

As Miyako knocked out Takai, one of the Rinnegan's jutsu activated. Inside the now gen-jutsu barricaded complex five bodies rose from the ground near Miyako and Hinata. "So Miyako Noburu has appeared." The five bodies say simultaneously. "Kaji-Sama will be most pleased.... A demon cat and the leader of the Hakumei."
