Past:
Tongs father died when on a mission that went horriblely wrong when Tong was still a young boy... or so his family was told. The details of how have been kept secret from him and his mother. The unfortunate event left Tong and his mother to be there for each other as he grew up with the occasional help from his Uncle, Genja Ezramaku. Later his desire to follow his fathers footsteps took the reigns of his life constantly pestering his mother to let him join the academy against his Uncles objections. In the end he attended the academy and was able to graduate. Now his life is governed by his drive to aid his village and also to not leave a squadmate to die.

In the time following Tong has made several friends in his travels counting amoung them his former squadmate and fellow partner in crime Akykyo Al'akir and Akane Arata. Akykyo has moved up in ranks but the two are still seen training together and eating ramen at Teuchis joking about whatever may have passed them that day.

Tongu and his Father: (most of the following information is sealed by the Elder Council of Sunagakure)

Jehago Erzramaku, father, husband, spy, and "failed" experiment and the cataylst that brought about the transformation of the Ijin Boushi. The final truth about Jehago is he was simply a spy and experiment of Sasori and Orochimaru. When the two were working together for the Akatsuki they planted many spies and some of Orochimarus famed experiments thruout the hidden villages, in order to gather further imformation from the villages. Jehago was no different. Placed back into Sunagakure the genjutsu user was quick on his way to become a very strong and powerful jounin till the day he betrayed his village.

In his time in Sunagakure he had grown up and even taken a wife and had a son Tongu. When it neared the time that he was to report back to Sasori he ventured out on a mission with his squad unknown to them that his plans were to leave Sunagakure and his family behind. Jehago waited for his moment to strike and turned on his once fellow squadmates. In the quick battle that followed he killed all three of them and set in motion things that would rattle the foundation of the Ezramaku clan to the current day. He eventually caught up with Sasori and reported everything he knew to his master that would be of importance, minus two facts. His wife and his son Tongu even though the two Akatsuki members knew of them both.

Many years have passed since that day and as fate would have it Tongu graduated from the Academy a genjutsu user like his father. Though the inevitable happened, during a fight outside of Konohagakure Tongu was injured and taken to a cell in Sound. It was then that Orochimaru discovered the boys powers sealing them away to be tested at a later date and to see how far Tongu would progress. Since then Tongu has had no knowledge of the seal or its purpose till the seal "cracked" letting loose some of his powers twisting his mind for a short time before quickly being sealed away again by Elder Chiyo.

Orochimarus experiments to create a body capable of controlling the Jinchuriki (similar to Yomato) were what spawned the creation that was Jehago, a water and earth element user with an unearthly speed and agility. After letting Tongu develop into a strong shinobi Orochimaru sent out a small group of Sound Nin who unexpectantly found Tongu and Akane Arata. After a heated and quick battle it came down to Tongu being dragged away by the only remaining Sound Nin leaving Akane to slowly make her way back to the village to relay the grim news, Tongu had been captured. After a breif meeting with Orochimaru the hidden seal that had held the Ijin Boushi in check was removed and a chakra draining seal put in its place for Orochimaru to study the effects the newly created bloodline had. Finally things came down to Orochimarus twisted sense of curiousity that lead Tongu and Jehago to face off to the death to see which was stronger, the actual experiment or the bi-product. After a long battle the man that had betrayed his village and his family now lay dead at Tongus feet. Not leaving much more to chance or giving him the time to turn on his captours Kabuto used a medical syringe and put Tongu down the last fading images in Tongs mind was that of his fathers blooded corspe laying on the ground beside him. Not more then a few days later Tongu was bound and sent to another of Orochimarus hideouts and on the way he was rescued by a joint effort between Suna and Konoha when news of the prisioner transport was "leaked". Not many are sure if Tongu was handed back over at the time or if it was a legitimate rescue the only one who could answer that would be Orochimaru himself.

"DuneWalker"... "The Scorpion's Apprentice"... "The Scorpion Devil of Wind Country" and now "The Scorpion Sage of Wind Country"... the many names that Missing Nin have come to know him by and the fewer that have survived the trek thru Wind to talk about it.



Fight Songs: [/u](songs that get me pumped during events)


Bullet For My Valentine - Hit the Floor ~Tongu's all or nothing combat syle when he has to be serious or die~



Excerpt scribbled in the margin from the journal of Tongu Ezramaku, Scorpion Sage:
"When you spend a good majority of your life tracking down those who have done many unspeakable things like the Gotekans and the Akatuski, mainly Anhura and Aeita, what does that make me? When you stain your hands with the blood of those who do harm to others are you much different then they are?"

If a Shinobi is near the caster of the Jutsu, and in the Jutsu' path, they will find it difficult to breath due to the massive gusts of wind. Prolonged exposure of this upclose effect can be lethal, causing death due to suffocation.
The field is weakest at the outter edges, roughly around 15m or farther away.

The dragon has a red mane and the rest of his body borders light blue. The color is not distinct because the wind manipulates it from its color to transparency. The dragon can shoot larger, more deadly versions of Minawana no Jutsu from its mouth. (At the risk of his own life if he uses it for an extended period of time). The user of the Jutsu is placed inside of the dragon's center, rendering complete control over the jutsu with the motions of their arms, legs, as well as chakra flow.

Forbidden Technique: Kyousei Tsuchinami
Great Earthen Tsumani
Rank: S

Type: Earth, Undodgeable/Cannot "Sub", must be blocked by Ninjutsu.
(Special note: Massive AOE Ninjutsu, hits everyone in current area, ie. "everyone in Fire Central" when used)
This Jutsu takes three rounds to complete due to the massive amount of chakra required to preform as well as the magnitude of the attack. The user is unable to preform additional jutsu or techniques during this time in order to focus on the chakra maniplution. The user is able to block, dodge, or susbitute incoming attacks.
Round 1: The user sends a massive shockwave of chakra into the ground at their feet directing a Tsunami size wave of earth to begin rolling in toward the user.
Round 2: The user continues to focus his chakra calling the earth towards him and his position. At this time the user can opt to send additional chakra into the ground to create spheres around him/her and allies if he so chooses. Each sphere drains the user another 3CP past the first amount of chakra. (ie. if the user wishes to sheild himself and 2 other allies from harm of the jutsu the CP cost now at the second round is 20+3+3+3 = 29 cp total, the user and 4 allies 20+3+3+3+3+3= 35, and so on.)
Round 3: While inside the sphere the user must concentrate on the incoming wave as it crashes down on the area, at this point the user shifts his concentration on the sphere pushing them to the surface to safely extract himself and his allies from the now added layer of sand, dirt, and rock.

Custom Items:


~Betsuo Kousen Arou~ Sasori "Scorpion"
(Heirloom Item, Item passed from "iskar_df/Akane Arata" to "Jeric2052/Tongu Ezramaku". Akane paid for sword originally but passed the blade to Tongu IC. DM Staff approved transfer.)
This large blade is only a fragment of it's former glory, the great sword that was widely known as Akane Arata's blade gave way under Bontoken of The Six's own sword. Though slightly smaller it is still able to unfold into a large warfan capable of delivering powerful gusts using wind element ninjutsu. The blade has since turned black due to the metal being contaminated with Tongu's blood prior smithing after the encounter with Bontoken. The pummel is adorned with a golden scorpion stinger and two inscriptions down either side of the blade cut into the blade by Akane's father who reforged the sword after it was destroyed.
One side reads:"Scorpion"
The other side:"May you never walk alone."
PVP:

• +1 to Wind Jutsu when unfolded into a warfan, unfolding and folding is a free action, using a jutsu with the fan is not.
  
• +1d6 to damage for 5CP/Round. This is due to the users wind chakra enveloping the blade allowing it to cut through the air with greater ease, can be used with Imbue weapons, cannot be stacked with Kenjutsu attacks.
  

Seal of Ikaruga
(Originally NPC ((Adari "The Scorpion Sage"))'s blade this weapon was left to Tongu in Adari's dieing moments hoping that his student would succeed where he failed in killing Anhura Ikaruga.)
This sword is imbued with the strength of the Sage of Wonders, who made his name by creating items built of PURE chakra. Many had heard the folk tale of a young genin who hired the Sage to make him a blade. A blade that would be the only thing to ever end his suffering, the genin's name, Anhura Ikaruga. Whether the sword will completely destroy him or not is a different story all together, but it should seal him enough to keep his curse from spreading immediately.
THE WEAPON ABILITIES CAN ONLY BE ACTIVATED ONLY ONCE, ONCE USED IN A FIGHT IN ANYWAY THE SWORD BECOMES DORMANT FOREVER LOSING ALL ABILITIES.
PVP:

• ~Sealing Strike~ Rank +4d8 additional damage (CP cost 12)
  
• ~Volley of Chakra~ The user exert his or her own chakra to unleash a volley of strikes on his or her opponent. (CP cost 20, 5d10)
  
• ~Final Strike~ This ability allows for the blade and user to peer passed the protective jutsu's and damage Anhura directly, pushing him out of his body. Allowing for the wielder to leave Anhura vulnerable to death. (CP cost 20)
  

Scorpion Summons:

Rank 1: Sasori no Kamoku

As her name implies this young scorpion is exceedingly shy to the point of hiding from new people. Akane's bond with her was strong though, as she looked up to Akane like an older sister. After learning of her death and finding out Tongu himself was still alive the young scorpion promised to help him avenge her in any way she could. If unseen listening to the two they seem to talk and joke like a pair of siblings. In a fight she tends to try and stay back, but if Tongu's really in trouble she will come to his aid in a heartbeat, showing her true willpower.


Rank 2: Sasori no Haru

Kamoku's mother. She is a tender and caring individual, very protective of her daughter and friends. After hearing of Akanes death from Kamoku, Haru told Tong she would offer her services one day to the young man if need-be to help him. She often reminds Tong that revenge isn't the answer and that Akane would not want him chasing Aeita and Anhura for the rest of his life and to "let it go". "He should live his life with some happyness not anger and regret" as Akane would have wanted him too. Often doing the "mother's rant" she is seen lecturing Tongu that he needs to find a new girlfriend and stop keeping people at arms lenght.


Rank 3: Sasori no Katsuro "Lord Katsuro"

Held in high reguards among the scorpions Katsuro or "Lord Katsuro" as many who know him call him is no Elder by any means. A long lived scorpion pushing the boundries of Elder Katsuro has seen many conflicts among men and beasts and believes that the scorpions should remain out of the fight and let the insignificant "morons" kill themselves off. Sharing the same bluntness and roughness that Adrai, the former Sage, had the pair were comrades only in the fact they saw eye to eye on many topics. In the time since Adrai's passing Katsuro has continued to honor his word to the former Scorpion Sage watching after Tongu only to smirk "when he falls". The final promise still remaining unfulfilled as Katsuro himself judges the "scorpling" Sage. Continually mocking Tongu that he has "much" to grow.

Tongu Ezramaku

Alias: Tong, Dune Walker, The Devils Eye (The Ijin Boushi)
Height: 5'10
Weight: 206 Lbs(broad-shouldered)
Eye color: Dark Green
Hair Color: Dark Green
Village of Origin: Sunagakure
Current Village: Sunagakure
Known Shinobi Rank:(Outside Suna) Jounin and Scorpion Sage ("Higher Ups" of Suna) Jounin / Anbu Black Ops #31 / Scorpion Sage
Rank: S
Bloodline: ~Ijin Boushi~ *very little info is known on this strange bloodline*

Information on Tongu Ezramakus father place his loyalties in question to some, his father a known spy for Orochimaru by the Elder Council of Sunagakure and their Lord Kazekage. The reports of his fathers death at his own hands while a captive of Orochimarus still leaves even more room for speculation. He is a well taught and practicioned Genjutsu Specialist pushing the bounderies of Master. Given a few more years with his use of the illusionary arts may grant him that title. Even more disturbing is the info now available to the higher ups of Sunagakure that not only was Tongu's father a spy for Orochimaru but an experiment as well. Being the offspring of such an experiement created in Tongu a new and odd bloodline that appears to amplify his genjutsu techniques and given him a heightened reaction speed once activated. Avoid eye contact if his eyes change from their normal green to solid black at all costs. Further information on his apparent dojutsu and powers are unavalible at this time.

~Entry 1~

Where do I begin?
Dad ...no Jehago is dead, his betrayal to his squad and his village has been collected on and his deeds avenged....
*writing stops*



*half way down the page it continues*
I've petitioned Lord Kazekage to keep Dad's files sealed, Mom doesn't need to know everything I've found out...
everything I've done.

My father was a good man, a good husband, and a good father. Was that all a lie? Was it all a front? A way to cover his tracks to accomplish his mission? I may never know I killed my only source for that information. It's funny how you imprint onto others how you feel about them and it makes descions hard to make and sometimes all to clear, but are they the right ones?

Aky has been my friend and closest confidant since graduating at the Academy, we were inseperable at one time. Now we see each other in passing or its "Hey Tong help me test out my puppet." which normally lands me in the clinic with more bruises then I'd like. I miss those days but you grow older, and your sent on seperate missions. Akys leading his own squad of puppet Genin and me well not many are stupid enough to specialize in my field.

And theres Akane, wow. Just wow. Beautiful, strong, and well sweet in her own way haha... Who would have thought she felt the same, and I thought she didn't like me. Oh well shows how well I've read her over the years. I think I could master genjutsu, know every technique out there and still not be able at times to look at her cute smile and know exactly what shes thinking.

Funny I just went blank on who else or what else to write about. Maybe this is going to be harder then I thought, not sure really why I'm writing all this down. Maybe a chornicle of everything thats gone on? What I am thanks to that snake and my dad? I don't know.

*skipes a few lines*

I'm still having that dream or nightmare if you will, I don't know what it is I keep dreaming about or who. They all started after this... thing or bloodline in me awakened. Am I going crazy? Is there some unknown drawback to using this power within me? The more I use it the more I can sense others fears almost like my minds telling me how to make them fear me more. I don't get it. I'm going to stop here Akanes down the street with her genin Lina in tow. I'm sure I'm in trouble after what I did to Lina the other day with that genjutsu...

~Entry 2~

Well been an eventfull day. Watched Shouni fight in a 2v2 fight and in the end he was the last standing out of all of them I'm proud. I'll have to increase my training with him, he has alot of potential just as "Anbu"-sensei saw in me... I just wish she would have once told me her name before dissappearing. Last I heard from her was that note and that scroll. Turns out that jutsu she left on my doorstep after my return was usefull and after experiencing it twice myself I also see why.

Fought Alexander Carnes today... wow I didn't think I had progressed this far. I wasn't even trying and he only landed one slash on me haha oh and if this is illegable to who ever finds this some day he got my writing arm this is alittle hard with my right hand. At first I didn't use those eyes till he started glowing blue and if he was resorting to glowing blue I'll use my eyes. Eitherway aside from a minor slash and a little drain on my chakra I pushed Alex aside. I think he has gone soft during his training up in the moutains but he swears he has a few more things to show me. I wanted to fight him one on one with no "powers" or what ever you would consider my eyes just to test myself against what I once heard refered to as "the leaf version of you". I don't know eitherway I won and it felt good. I told Alex to train some and harden up after his "vacation" and we'd spar again. We'll see what happens after he does that...

~Entry 3~

Well it was only time I guess. I went off on Akane when we bumped into each other earlier and the subject changed to Jin... gah I hate that pompous prick... I guess Jin is my "Jard". I remeber Akykyo fuming about Jard over and over again. After a short and heated discussion we huged and made up... why am I so angry when I know shes around him. I trust her, hell I've trusted her with my life I don't know how many times, its him. I don't trust him as much as I have a chance of breaking off his arms and beating him to death with them. Maybe its the lack of sleep or the nightmares, they've grown in intensity. Its been... two days since I slept last and that dream with Akane in it...
*writing stops*

The more I use the Ijin Boushi, as Elder Chiyo has called it, the more they come. Dreams that make a fight with Sasori of the Red Sands sound inviting. What twisted power have I unlocked, is it more of a tool or a curse. Only time will tell I just have to keep my cool and not snap. I can go days without sleep I know I can I did it with Adrai when we walked the dunes "training" as he called it. I think it was more he just wanted to see how long I could walk without water and sleep. I won the bet though three days, though he spent the next four nursing me back to health. A note to anyone who ever finds this journal after my death, dont tempt fate by betting the Scorpioin Sage Adari if he out lives me.

~Entry 5~

God what was she thinking. She could have gotten herself killed had I not caught her first. Leaving because she thought it would protect us... odds are she would have gotten her way had Anbu caught her first thankfully I know her too well her disguise didn't hold up for long. She been limited to the hospital for now and sedated. If.. ~IF~ Anhura does posses her she will be asleep and he will not be able to do anything harmfull it was the only way. I went to see her but sitting ther at her side holding her hand, itt just felt limp and lifeless event though her touch was still warm. I'm sorry Akane please never put me thru this again and I will make sure you never have to be treated like this ever.

[Shikamaru]

~Entry 6~

So much has happened. But three things have easily remained on my mind these past few days. Akane, killing Setsukei of the "Six", and the massive blow i took in my last meeting with memebers of the "Six" that put me on an operating table because I was too angry and stubborn to accept help. I asked the doctor to not tell anyone that my heart stoped during the process but I was informed Meiko was nearby and watched the whole ordeal... hopefully she won't tell Akane how close i was.

Setsukei barrier is rather simple now that I've encountered it twice and been given time to analyze it. A form of time progress and halt that he is able to generate but requires more and more chakra, which explains why he would fortify his skills against genjutsu. The weak point is directly above him, the barrier only extends up ten feet total. A good leap to launch yourself directly over him and he has nowhere to go but to block with his sword. Akane wounded him but minorly, reguardless my baby did something that noone has ever done. Wounded him. Next time i'll be ready... I have my plan and I will have my justice.

[Shikamaru]

~Entry 7~

I have it... the means to put Setsukei in the ground for good. I stumbled across Karasu training his Genin in a jutsu that could not be blocked by a sword... A SWORD! I asked him to teach it to me but he told me he knew of a more powerful jutsu that couldn't be blocked you pretty much have to get out of its way. The jutsu was called Touketsu Kaze "Frozen Wind", now I have the means. I have my plan and I have the weapon to use thats perfect. Setsukei can hide behind his barrier all he wants but once hes stupid enough to raise it and not be able to move, he will be mine.

The next time we meet, Setsukei of The Six will fall. The legend of the swordmaster who noone got within ten paces of will be shattered, not by a scratch but by his death...
Sunagakure will have its justice.

[Shikamaru]

~Entry 8~

Gah! He had his entire little group with him! Coukiji wouldn't let me fight him and I'm not stupid to think I could take all four of them just to get to Setsukei... their closer to awakening someone with all the gems they are collecting.

BUT... I have the missing peice of the Wind Demon Gem. They will have to come to me in time once they know I have it to complete it. If my vision is correct though, means the rest of the gem is imbeded in each of them anyways and thats whats helping sustain their lives after they've been dead for so long.

Long story short, hes still alive and everyday that passes I find myself plotting and planing more and more on how to take them all down which eventually turns into "how to kill Setsukei". Maybe I've become obsessed with the legend, I know I read the books about them over and over again but this? Maybe I should drag that box out of my closet and pull them out and start reading them again their may be some truth to the legends of the Six and I may have missed something in there that could help me now.

I need to think about something else. Akane... *draws a goofy smilely face then a stick body with a sword*

Ok yeah I can't draw. Wow... just wow. I really can't think of any other word to describe how I feel about her but "wow". She can irritate me at times with her petty squabbles with Meiko and the fights she picks but I'm sure I annoy her too. Oh well.

OH! Shouni passed the Chunin Exams! YOSH! My first student to participate and he graduated not a bad track record to start with, I'm sure Lord Kazekage is pleased with his descion even more now of making me a Special Jounin... now if only he would fully promote me.

[Shikamaru]

~Entry 9~

*several pages seem to be torn out*

~Entry 10~

Shes gone. Akane, my love, my life, shes dead. She was sent on a mission by Lord Kazekage, a solo A ranked mission it should have been easy. After she didn't report in several times an Anbu squad was dispatched. They didn't find her but found her sword, her mother hasn't come out of Akanes room now for days. Her father gave me her sword and said she would have wanted me to have it, not let it sit somewhere and rust. I haven't been by their house since, I know they need their time as do I according to a few. Kai says I need to let it out not sit quietly and reflect with a bottle of sake.

Shes gone, I couldn't believe it, I still can't believe it. I begged "Anbu"-sensei to show me or tell me where they found her sword but she wouldn't, I followed her home and I guess I fell asleep outside her door waiting on her to come back out. Next I know "Anbu"-sensei is stuffing a peice of paper in my face walking past me as I sat leaning against the wall near her door. "Some things are best left unseen Tongu, consider this my last lesson to you." I didn't understand what she ment till I followed the directions out into an area bordering Rain country and Fire country. I had never seen such devistation in my life. An area about 100 yards in width lay in ruins. Sorch marks littered the area as well as wind blasted debre. Whoever she fought, it was a heavily heated battle. Trees lay on their side from her wind blasts and a few I could imagine came from her sword strikes. It wasn't till I made my way towards one side of the rubble I saw it, a pit about 2 feet deep about 10 foot wide. The obvious impact of an immense fire ninjutsu, spots inside of the pit were glazed over almost like glass. Thats when I saw it... I knew it had to be just my eyes playing tricks on me so I walked down into the pit only to feel my heart drop out of my chest. Two small foot prints etched into the section of glass below and a line melted into it from where she would have unfolded her sword to protect herself. I had seen these prints before... I knew who they belonged to, I had seen them in sand enough times. The glassed over dirt had an odd hue to it and not till I cracked it and pulled it away did I see why. Blood in the dirt had mixed with it creating the red hue in the glass. This was it, I was standing on the very spot she had...
*writing stops and continues a few lines down, a few dried spots liter the page*

I will carry her sword in her name and honor. She died a shinobi's death and knowing her she would have not wanted to die any other way, except for this soon. I will never forget you my friend, my squadmate, my love.

~Entry 11~

Its been about two weeks now, I'm going insane or its just my imagination. I chased what I thought was Akane thru the market the other day only to startle some poor girl when I came running around the corner. All these small clues that hint that she could be alive somewhere I've found, at the site and after talking with Kanya-sensei... I think I've let it get to me and get my hopes up for no reason.

Lord Kazekage asked to see me, when I walked in his office in my street cloths he gave a look that could have boiled me to the bone. He asked how I was doing and if I had learned not to be short with an Anbu member who was doing their job. I told him I had and apologized for the matter. He said good and told me he was putting me back on active duty and I was dissmissed. Before I got out of the room though he called after me and I turned half afraid and half curious that he would call me Tong instead of Tongu. When I looked at him his face had changed and he asked me one short question "How are you holding up?" I had to clinch my teeth to keep my jaw from droping. I replied with the only thing that came to my mind, "I'll be fine." He then noded and waved me out of his office when I steped into the hall my words echoed in my head several times "I'll be fine." Not sure if it was my imagination or some sign but the last it echoed in my head I heard her voice "You'll be fine."

I couldn't help but smile as I walked back to my apt to change out of my street cloths, I've always felt more "me" in my gear. As I was tighening my gloves down on my hand I looked up into the mirror and the conversation I had with a missing rock nin months prior poped into my head for some reason. He asked me why I had hunted him for so many days thru Wind Country and my mind turned to thoughts of someday finding the one responsible for taking Akane away from me. "This is what I do... this is what I love." is all I said to the rock shinobi before I killed him.

"This is what I do, this is what I love." I will never forget those words again, I promise.

~Entry 12~

Been a crazy few days but the biggest thing that sticks out in my mind is I now know who killed Akane. It was Aeita Osimi and Anhura...

now I know who I have to kill

Adrai-sensei's disease has progressed faster then what Kanya-sensei told me but I can't help to think that his reaction to the news of who Akanes killer was and him using his Sages power kill Aeita...
He no longer has years but a month to a year... I can't let him use his sage powers again I need to get stronger and face them myself. I need to end this constant circle.

Aky came out of his hole finally and crankier then ever... the guy needs to find himself someone who makes him happy. haha

Found out something interesting about Kiyumi in Konoha... meh we'll see if its the ramblings of Dotu or if theres some truth to it. I'm just not sure considering everything thats happened...

[Shikamaru]

~Entry 13~

They found Akane and brought her back to Suna, I ran as fast as I could back from Mist once I got word. Why did I have to run there for that stupid message we could have just send it by a messenger bird, I don't care if it was sensitive. I could have had more time with her.

I got there and it was as bad as the Anbu tracker had informed, she had severe burns all over her body. I sat with her for a while till the Doctor pulled me aside and informed me. I didn't want to believe her till Akanes heart stoped, the doctor was able to revive her but told me all they could do for her now was ease her passing. I sat with her and cried, I haven't cried like that in my life. haha Akane was right I am a big baby...
*dried spots litter the page*

The doctor was able to use her medical jutsu and link our minds for a short period so we could say goodb-...
*writing stops continueing a few lines down*

I got to see her once last time as she was, I explained to her why everything looked the way it did and she started yelling and crying that I was lying and this wasn't how it was supposed to end. That we were supposed to get married and have kids and grow old together like how we had planed. She was always so cute when she was mad or sad, not the firm "I'm going to kick your ass" shinobi, but the girl I came to love. I think I was the only person that knew her that actually saw that side of her often.

She made me promise "to live" that the next we meet I better be some old coot and not a bitter one either. Also that I better find someone else that she didn't want me to be alone for the rest of my life. I promised her I'd live and that I'd try on the last part. Of course she punched me for that last part even though it didn't hurt.

She faded away in my arms, and now I know, she is truely gone. I promise you Akane, I'll live on just like I promised you.


I don't think anything will be the same from this point on, I was given my closure and my mind now is at rest. I will stop from happening again.

This day I vow to kill Anhura and Aeita Omisi, not just for Akanes death but for every life they have taken that was dear to someone else. I will not stop till the day I put them in the ground, I have a long road ahead of me but I know I don't walk it alone she will be with me in the form of her blade.

I will not stop till everyone I know is safe and not another will fall to the Akatsuki so long as I breath. I will see you again one day my love but for now I have things that must be taken care of. I will stop those that will hurt others. I see now that this is my fate, this is what I was born to do, no... what i was "made" for.

[Shikamaru]

~Entry 14~

Another has fallen sadly it wasn't Setsukei. Otekei, the poison master of The Six is dead, counting the older brother who wasn't considered part of their band at the time that leaves "5".

Damn that fat freak Coukiji, he dodge my swing by inches or it would have been four. The gems are the keys, now I know a quicker way to deal with that fortress as for Setsukei his technique alone is his flaw and he won't face me face to face. Least I don't think he’s that stupid, the problem now is he knows I can get to him. Given time he could fix that and that’s what worries me.

Not only did I miss the gem fragment by inches but he also put Kai thru a wall while I was disabled by Otekei. I'll be sure to make him pay for that one too but Kai was just brusied and beat up from it thankfully that was all. And even worse? He has Otekei's gem fragment. It worries me that these fragments are able to reanimate them but what would happen if Coukiji forces a second shard into himself. I can only hope it would kill him if he tried. Every time I'm near them the shard hanging around my neck vibrates, if only I could use it. If only it was more powerful to track the others.

And these visions? Is the Ijin Boushi showing me things? Am I absorbing more then just The Six's fears? Am I seeing more into their minds because of their lack of "fear"? I can't help but wonder if the Ijin Boushi's hunger is pulling more and more on their minds to find what it wants. I don't know but as long as it keeps feeding me info I'll welcome it.

Seems "Big Brother" is after his "friend" if he finds that sword I don't know if I'll be able to stop him. The "rumors" in the stories of The Six make the others look like children, compaired to him. And who would have reanimated them? All I have is a key that I've analyzed over and over again but have no clue as to what it unlocks and the fragment I got from the little brother. These Gotekans are going to be the death of me and countless more if I don't start putting more of them in the ground and fast. I've been chasing them for over two months and we've only killed two of six or rather "seven". Maybe now with Otekei's death it will cause them to come to me. I can handle Setsukei and Coukiji if they come at me again now that I know what I do. But "Doc"? That man almost gutted me in one swing with those claws, I know his achilles heel but is he in there enough to fight that monster.

With Akane gone this falls to me alone now. Its like Setsukei knows I can kill him and he is just biding his time for something. Coukiji I'm sure is now worried that I know where the fragment is in his body and with one good hit can kill him. As for the others I'd be lying if I didn't say they worry me greatly. The scary thing is as I sat on a dune watching a scorpion kill its meal I realized that they each are a polar opposite to myself in some way and that worries me that something like them exists. If I don't kill them soon and put their rampage to an end, they will be the death of hundreds or more and if I don't watch my back, myself included...

[Shikamaru]

~Entry 15~

So much as happened in the past week. I've been assinged a new squad not just Stella.

Stellas training is coming along well, what helps her is me, not to sound like I am blowing my own horn. Back when I was a genin a Sand Nin specializing in Genjutsu was unheard of and far inbetween.

Victoria will benifit some from my training but as Sensei has said many times "I'm no Medical Shinobi". I spent just as much time in the clinic and hosptial as I did in the dunes. So I'll do my best to make sure she gets every bit of training she can get but I'll do my best to spare her Kanya-sensei. I can not deny Sensei's students that make it out "alive" to chunins are some of the best Medical Shinobi that Suna has ever seen. But I'll use my resources to make sure she recieves the best she can get... minus the "whip" haha sorry Sensei if you ever read this.

Rasenken I have yet to sit down and meet I've been told it was some kind of family issue. But from what I have heard it is a little unnerving and sketchy... Her physical description and marks in the Academy mirror that of Akanes and she was slotted to be assigned to Akane before her death. Now shes in my hands, I going to have to swallow it the best I can if she is like what others say. I don't know how I'll feel looking at a girl who sounds so much like Akane did as a Genin when we three first set out. I'm no master with a blade I'm just starting to learn how to use Akanes sword myself and it proving to be as much a pain as it was to master my genjutsu. Either Lord Kazekage isn't thinking about how I feel with the whole past few months or he knows exactly what I'll do. Maybe he put her in my care along with the other two to ensure that what happened to Akane...

Eitherway I have a squad of three girls, god I can hear Akykyo threatening me now. He's never let my wandering eyes and habits as a Genin go... "Perv" this... "Perv" that... god I hate that word. Though after I cornered him and explained everything to him just before me and Akane getting together maybe he realized I've grown up. I'm not a boy anymore interested in illusions and women, I'm a man and a shinobi of my village and now a Special Jounin. I have three little girls entrusted to me to train and make sure they live to see as much as I have. I won't fail them like I failed Akane.
