Meeting The Team

[vallen]

As Vallen woke up every morning at 5 to train, he decided to get a light work out in before he left. Getting to his kitchen he Bows to his Father, more as Head of his clan than as a parental figure. Though the Father simply smiles and tussled Vallen's hair. Smiling Vallen picks up an apple and throws it in his mouth, holding it firm with his teeth. Dragging his Thumb across a kunai in his pocket to draw a bit of blood Vallen makes a hand sign. In a small puff of smoke Chim-Chim is at his side, Bowing to Vallen's Father.

After that it was a strait shot through the village at top speed.As the pair Ran through the streets they would have races to short points, like roof tops. Once there they would have a quick spar that Vallen always won, though not always decisively. Like a rocket the two where off Bounding over roof tops and sliding along Power lines. Vallen was Faster than any of the kids in his Class, buy more than a little. He was built for it. He wasn't the most dexterous but he was still damn fast. Chim Chim was no slouch either able to sometimes beat Vallen in the Races they have. He was only a bit slower but he was Far more Dexterous.

Once the reached the training grounds, away from the majority of people,Vallen and Chim-Chim started to fight. Chim chim used his dexterity to dodge and counter Vallen's standard attacks. However Vallen was getting used to his newest creation, Which still needed a name. All he knew was that he focused his chakra properly he was granted more speed to his limbs, that was basic. The speed of Vallen's attacks blew them out of the water, As Chim-chim would soon find out. For the next 40 minutes Vallen only attacked with his snap jab and kick jutsu, single blindingly fast attacks came faster than even his monkey could deal with, and they came every 5 seconds, masked by other punches and kicks in the mean time. That not to say that Vallen has it down pat, As Chim-chim exploited the 5second rule and landed Vallen on his ass.

Springing from his hands onto his feet wasn't too hard. It was what he decided to do next that he felt would be fun and awesome.He was wearing the bottoms of the traditional robes, nothing fancy about them, other than the fact he has been training so hard and long that they had tattered a bit towards the bottoms,adding to the Cool Image that Vallen had no clue he even had. With a quick step,Vallen regained his footing and launched himself at Chim-Chim fast enough to leave a trail of dust, Launching the Orange monkey with 4 blinding attacks,Faster than the monkey could keep up with. Being knocked into the air the monkey pivoted his body and head,with an angry smile Chim-Chim blew out a stream of fire directly at Vallen

Below him,Vallen hands for 2 seamless hand seals,a orb of Katon chakra formed in Vallen's right hand, lifting it into the air, Vallen released the chakra. Firing a stream of fire all his own,the heat from the two could be felt all over the training field,his cloths burning bit by bit as the 2 seemed to have a battle of wills.

Chim-Chim wasn't going to stop and Vallen knew that. Vallen wasn't gonna stop and Chim-Chim knew it. The two knew that for now all they could do is shoot fire at one and other until one stops, or loses. The force and power of Vallen's jutsu alone was keeping the monkey in the air, though the little bastard's stream of fire wasn't hurting the matter.

The 2 where locked in an interesting training practice, The Sarutobi Called it the "Pillar of Fire", It was a decent way for one to get familiar with a jutsu and expand upon their chakra pool. by forcing chakra through your system and out, your body also gets used to allowing chakra through them. Vallen was lucky in that his chakra was faster than most on its own, not needing any coaxing to do so.

The chambers illuminated flavored in an amber hue by the golden sun pouring its rays over Konoha, yet its presence was not physically felt thanks to a sweet breeze lingering about the land. The scenery was breath taking if one halted to view it, but in Houko’s case she was occupied with resourceful data. Voluntarily she accepted the task, she just didn’t expect the word load to confine her to a desk. If not for her sencha’s aroma alluring her nostrils, decisions of delaying the reports would have been easy. The luscious tastes of sencha quelled her dry throat by each sip while thoroughly polishing the remaining entries. Curling her fingers along the scrolls, she fastened it in completion, letting out a sigh of relief. Easing her mind, she leaned back in her chair taking a last sip as her charcoal orbs drifted into a chamber corner, reminiscing on pass events. It was far from visible, but the kunoichi’s eyes had not closed for two days now. Her breathing became faint, heart upped in tempo, index finger enslaved to a rhythmic tap over knee while gazing off. The reoccurring nightmare haunted her daily, influencing severe anguish in most cases. The fear of reliving the scene subconsciously embarked her temporal insomnia, her mind refuse to go through the pain as long as her body let her. Majority of ninja’s wouldn’t mentally function in such conditions, but thanks to her vigorous ANBU days she was able to function three days without sleep. A squealing sound of kids broke her hallucination, her heart rate had even reverted back. The cheerful screams had poked her mind to other matters. Swiftly she reached for her violet jacket while arising from her chair to face the window view. Tucking arms through both sleeves, she sprung out the window, covering ground on roof tops to a meeting she scheduled. She intended to be half an hour early to her Genin meeting. She was hesitant on being a team leader, but it was her resolve that implored her to do so. It wasn’t long for Houko to arrive at the meeting to notice a boy and a monkey sparring diligently. Konoha no shikō had position herself on a wood pillar, removing a carving and knife out her pocket to continue shaping while observing. She easily identified the boy as the Jinchūriki she had to deal with a year ago. Off first glimpse she notice the Genin had made great progress compared to the last she’s seen him. Keeping to herself, she’d remain hidden with amusement watching Vallen play with his monkey. His sparring would not be spoiled by the Jonin until she felt the need to intervene with his basic training[/style]

The pair kept poring out fire and chakra as the fire that Vallen spewed out started to slowly overtake Chim-Chim's. Vallen had much more chakra than his little friend and thats how these things usually went. Chim-Chim would put up a good fight and Vallen would drag it out as much as possible to keep himself entertained and to prolong his training.

For a while Chim-Chim held out but after a bit he just couldn't keep it up and Vallen's fire over took him, Blasting the little monkey into the sky even higher. Once Vallen saw his victory was complete and he had blasted Chim-Chim into the sky, he smiled a bit and took off running in Chim-Chim's direction. Moving quickly to position himself under the burning monkey and caught him as he fell.

The two crashed into the ground, leaving a skidd mark from the force of the impact. Vallen 's smile could be seen plainly as he looked down at his friend. Chim-Chim had a fire on his ass permanently so Fire jutsu weren't very effective against him, it's one of the reason's Vallen can train this way with him. Chim-Chim looked up at Vallen with a big smile before rolling back and sending his right foot right under Vallen's chin.

The attack came so fast that Vallen couldn't even dodge it. As Vallen rolled backwards a few times, he collected his thoughts. He was here to train, he shouldn't have tried to even catch him. Kindness was a death sentence in the ninja world and Vallen was a kind person. As he Flipped backwards to his feet, Chim-Chim was already barreling towards him. Vallen had only a second to jump out of the way of Chim-Chim's vicious kicks.

Making a few hand seal's Vallen created a half dozen clones of himself. The cloned rushed the little monkey with punches and kicks. The agile monkey dodged the first one, but it was a set up. The rest of the clones attacks hit like clock work, knocking the monkey around with the equivalent of 5 flaming attacks, 2 punches and 3 kicks. the monkey's body was batted around by the clones, each dissipating after there attacks.

Each knick of the knife refined the molded figure as the Jonin watched keenly like a hawk stalking its prey. Her charcoal spheres danced left to right, analyzing the Monkey Prince’s attacks down to muscle movement. All counters anticipated his fiery monkey’s assault, easily gaining momentum. Yet her lips tighten, responding to a bitter taste developed on sight of Vallen’s demeanor. Her anxiety was unspoken, unable to be grasped by words. The enigma shadowed over her continuously the more she observed the facial expressions of the Monkey Prince. In the boy was something lacking, a dogma only life could impact on if guided sufficiently. It made her backtrack to the day of the sealing, recognizing another doubt that laid unison to how she felt now. That Kyuubi maybe a pain in the ass later on her thoughts continued to dissect prowess capabilities the Kyuubi possessed while she watched the fiery monkey crash land on Vallen. The casualties Konoha endured to seal this beast cost them greatly and now it resided in this little boy. To make matters worse it was all under her responsibility to monitor the boy, a burden Hokage personally issued. She didn’t know what the Kage’s motives were, but one thing she did know... she’d whip this boy into shape. Convinced that the time was ripe, she bent her knees slightly and in an instant she soared through the air, tucking her body in a spiralling motion. Wearing her iconic purple jacket, she resembled a purple ball hurdling towards the two. Breaking her spiral, she landed in a neat fashion in a crouching position with her right hand stabbing the carving knife into the ground. Roughly a meter away from Vallen and his furry friend, she pulled the blade out, spouting up to full height purposely drawing attention. Continuing her carving she created a 4 minute silence of sculpting the remaining undefined edges while paying the two no mind. ”Finally, it’s done” she spoke in a nonchalant manner, the carving depicted to be a brushy browed penguin with a tengu nose. Placing her knife away she held up towards the ray of light beaming from the sun, reviewing all of the figures details. Consent by her art she tucked the figure away in her jacket, giving the Genin her full attention. Her normal cold glare only focused on Vallen, not even a twitch acknowledging the Monkey companion. Laid back with hint of strictness she spoke ”You’ve arrived way too early, Konoha no shikō lesson one! Value your sensei!” no seconds given to them to comprehend, Houko had already sprinted towards them with eyes of a predator. Her upper body lowered as her speed swiftly increased towards them, particularly Vallen. The monkey would only see a monstrous back hand aiming for his face since he was in the way of her target. Weather he dodged or not did not concern her; by the time it hit or missed she would of swept by Chim-Chim to charge the Monkey Prince. On the receiving end, Vallen would see the jonin pouncing with a flying knee driving to collide against his chin with intense force. Of course the Jonin merely wanted to provoke an action in order to respond with a fast reacting counter, it was now all up to the Jinchūriki move to decide her decision .[/style]

Vallen was about to continue the fight, despite being drained a bit by his last Jutsu combo. Though Vallen had to admit that his chakra has been increasing by leaps and bounds over the past year. He wasn't questioning it even in the slightest, Figured it was the fruits of his laborious training. It wasn't often that a kid his age asked questions about good things.

His attention was diverted from Chim-chim as a stranger appeared. at first she was just absently carving a piece of wood. Vallen wasn't too sure what was happening but he was in the training grounds. Then upon a declaration of completion, turned her focus to Vallen. Her cold gaze falling on Vallen's tiny frame. The little boy looked behind him and to either side before pointing to him self as if asking if she was looking at him.

Then she gave a line about being too early and that her first lesson was to value his master. It all happened so fast, Vallen didn't have much time to react. The older woman dashed forward, slapping the monkey shit out of Chim-Chim, figuratively speaking. Vallen could move his feet, she was too fast for him to do any thing. She rocketed towards his face Knee first.

Vallen's mouth and eyes exploded out of his head as he screamed at her attack. Barely having enough time to pull them back into his head before crossing his arms over his face and "Blocked" the knee. The force from the attack sent Vallen spinning like a wheel backwards until he crashed into the near by tree, back first and right next to Chim-Chim who's eyes were spinning swirls at the moment.

Vallen, however, wasn't as hurt as he thought he should be, Still his head was ringing and his vision wasn't 100% yet but he was functional enough to get to his feet and take a defensive pose. He quickly looked the woman over, noting caring about the shape of her body, more the sinew and the tension. Vallen was a apt fighter so he knew to look for the basics like they had been hammered into him a million times, because they had.

He had fought Jounin on many occasions. He never stood a chance but he learned there were generally 2 kinds, those that let you attack and punished you for doing it wrong and those that attack you and punish you for not defending or thinking right, Vallen could tell this one was a hitter.

Merriment sparked her endeavours to continue further based on what little resistance the Jinchūriki put up. Gracefully landing on her feet she raised her left hand over her view to notice slobs of monkey saliva drizzling down the knuckles of her gloves, the furry beast dawned in a daze proofed her attack succeeded. If this was what Hokage wanted? He would definitely get that from her labour. No doubt in her mind she could exert hidden power hibernating in the young boy, but he would need to see danger at its full potential, no...feel danger. Just not today, for now she’d just kick his ass. Sprinting off again, she visually pinned on the two backed against a tree in agony. What stood out was that Vallen was up, defensively prepared for her next move, it was mentally praised by Houko. The amount of force she put was enough to knock a Chuunin unconscious, yet he was standing with focused eyes. Then again he wasn’t an ordinary kid, that Kyuubi empowered his durability. She would test to see how much he could withstand until breaking, of course she had orders not to press so hard to trigger the beast within...she’d keep that in mind. Perception was the objective of this fight, body language was critical in the arts of combat, the slightest mistake could lead to a death. A valuable lesson personally experienced by Houko, she would now hand it down to Vallen after this fight. Of course she wouldn’t expect him to master this all in one fight, but after her sessions he’d be skilled in dissecting movements. Press forward, Houko leaped like a raging tiger again, performing a leaping leg lariat. This would demonstrate the extent of Houko’s leg strength, as much as she packed a punch, it was nothing compared to her feet. However this was not targeted for Vallen or Chim-Chim, it was the tree behind them. Like a broadsword slashing through bread, Houko’s leg tore through the tree with ease. Hopefully Vallen was quick on his feet, because he wouldn’t have to move just himself, but Chim-Chim as well.[/style]

Vallen watched calmly, his stance steady his eyes on her like a hawk. It would be obvious to any seasoned fighter that Vallen wasn't just watching how she moved, he was memorizing it, at a glance no less. He analysed the motions and did so with a calm demener, a practiced composure from years of fighting someone much much more terrifying than this woman could hope to be, His Father.


As She took off into the air, Chim-Chim was coming to and was shaking the daze from his head and eyes. It had been some time since he had been hit that hard, he was not a fan. Looking up at the attacker, Chim-chim's eyes bigged out of his head. She was coming in for another attack and was flying through the air right at him and Vallen. Chim-chim wasn't as well trained as Vallen was in things like this, he was more in touch with his bestial emotions, including fear.

Vallen knew that chim-chim was a liable to get seriously hurt if he staryed the way he was, but Vallen still needed his friend by him. For the two of them this meant only one option, and it was there best option, if not only option. Chim-Chim and Vallen reached out a hand together and made a joint seal, which caused chim-chim to expel a bunch of smoke.

As the smoke cleared and the woman's kick neared a feint wooshing noise could be seen as Vallen spun an elegant black and gold staff around his body like it was an extension of his own body, if a little bit of a clumsy extension. the motions were showy but all used to build momentum in the staff, which Vallen Pivoted and made a thrust, focusing the momentum on a single point, The knee of the woman, the one she was attacking with.

Vallen was resolved in his block. With the force of his block and the speed of her attack, if the Jounin didn't stop, she would seriously injure herself. What the jounin couldn't know however was that the staff could smash rocks easily and was damn near indestructible. So Vallen held his ground, knowing the strength of his staff and the strength of his resolve, Vallen wanted to show, off the bad that Smart fighting beats strong fighting.

Luckily for the genin her plan was thwarted from the appearing smoke, forcing her to catapult herself off the tree into a back flip. Arcing in her flip she tilted her head to gander a staff hidden in the screen of smoke waiting to counter her attack. A scheme allured her mind as she manipulated her weight while altering the loop of her flip. She had to admit, the kid had brains unlike most in the genin class, but equipment alone wouldn’t suffice the session. Not even the colleague of his would hinder her movements unless she choose to at this point, this was clearly all child’s play. Her felid of testing in this spar would be provoking the little kid. Mind games played a factor in Houko’s style of engagement, her remedy for pretty much every and anything and it would be tested now as Houko straightened in her landing. Boarding the tip of staff so gently as a dove, she pulled out her carving. Playing oblivious on her position, she admired her art of the penguin tengu nose figure. Not a word smoke until the fog had cleared for the monkey fellow to gain view of her ”The nose of this one reminds me of Hokage-sama, very odd....huh what the #^@$?” lazily her eyes danced back to the grey haired ninja in a somewhat dull surprised look ”Kid you got shorter or what? ” Houko was skilled at being believable, clearly portraying as if she didn’t know she was on the boy’s staff that explained her sudden height. Shortly she tapped her head after realizing she had spoken profanity with a minor ”Aiyah! Not again, I guess I’ll have to record that down” Silently she staying in thought she mumbled to herself while replacing her figure for a record booklet in her jacket, doodling down information. While writing she even began to backtrack through the book, completely disrespecting the genin with non-acknowledgement. It was as if he didn’t mean anything to her at this point, hopefully her ploy would work since she was still standing lightly on his staff[/style]

Vallen was wide eyed. He had braced his body for a massive impact. His body tensed and his arms held the pole firmly. He even squinted his face, like he had already taken the impact. He held his pose for a moment, waiting for the impact, waiting for the force to send him flying. For a moment or two Vallen stood perfectly still, his body tense as a statue. Then, one of Vallen's eye's dared to really peek open and look around.

Vallen was shocked to see the jounin squatting on the end of his staff. Her feet balancing on it perfectly, her mastery of chakra control allowing her to sit there and not add any weight to the staff. Vallen was impressed and shocked at the ease with which she was moved. Vallen had Fought a lot, mostly with people much stronger than he was.

This may be the first time someone this strong was trying to make him feel bad, by blatantly insulting his skill with their lack of interest. It was a simple ploy, one that would send most people into some sort of angry rage and fly off the handle. Too bad for her, Vallen was pretty level headed when it came to combat, preferring analysis to annihilation as a first response. Chim-Chim however was another story.

Between her feet, as if a part of the pole, a monkey mouth appeared. no other part just the mouth. Then as quickly as possible 2 hands seemed to grow out of the pole,trying to grasp the feet that rested in what would end up being in the palms of the hands. The monkey wanted to try and grasp her feet and secure her for the upcoming point blank attack from the fire breath that streamed from the mouth between her legs.

The fire came accompanied with an anger fueled monkey howl that could have stripped the bark off of trees. The fire was Vallen's que to make his move, which was to use one of his own personal jutsu. It was a bit of effort but it was his best option. Vallen focused his chakra through his feet and his entire body, and with one great effort, he moved two feet to his left in a strait line. This motion however would crash his pole, and the subsequent attacks made by it, and that which it's attacking, crash into the tree at an extremely high speed.

This was Vallen's only real shot at doing anything, this was his trump card, his best move at the moment and he was hoping it would suprise her, after all Vallen didn't know of any genin who could match his speed, least of all while using his strobe step taijutsu. He had his plan in motion, the best he could hope for.

Golden rays of light washed over Saseko's face, the boy had fainted the night before, pushing his body to its limit. He opened his eyes; the world was bright as ever, beautiful but bright as fuck, Saseko had sat under a large oak tree before passing out. He was just taking a break; he never thought how much he had over did his training. It took the boy a while before he was fully awoke, standing to his feet, Saseko started towards the training grounds. It seemed like just yesterday that Saseko and his grandfather had last trained here; the elder Uchiha had stumbled upon Saseko training alone, trying to master the Uchiha's Great Fire ball jutsu.

Every Uchiha had to learn to use the jutsu to be recognized as an adult in their clan, usually this was an easy feat for most Uchiha, but Saseko was born with an affinity for the Wind element. This made is much harder for Saseko, he smiled as memories of his grandfather flooded his mind. That time seemed much easier; he was now a Genin of Konohagakure. He had become an adult in the eyes of his clan and a ninja of his village. Saseko wasn't going to stop here, he couldn't stop, soon every shinobi village will know the name Uchiha Saseko and they will praise him as a Kami no Shinobi.

Saseko paused as he made it to the training grounds, behind the brush the Uchiha adjusted his Kusarigama, the chain rattled as he watched two shinobi battle in the training grounds. A smirk grew on his face, "I know that monkey's stench from anywhere" Saseko whispered, he jumped into a nearby tree and continued to watch. This was his perfect time to strike, how these mere mortals dare start the festivities without him. Saseko clenched his hand around the kusarigama, holding the war fan in his right hand and the chain in the left. He needed to time this just right or he would miss, using the sharingan Saseko focused on Vallen's movements.

There was one jutsu Saseko was known for around Konohagakure, Shunshin no Jutsu | Body Flicker Technique. He quickly used the jutsu, trying to catch vallen in his chains, while the genin was focused on the older ninja. If the attack hit, vallen would be chained to a tree on the opposite side of the field, if he somehow missed, Saseko would Saseko would bodyflicker off the tree and aim for the elder. He didn't know who the person was, he couldn't even tell their gender...but Saseko knew it had to be their Sensei. Hopefully he wouldn't be in to much trouble....

Only two options added up to the response she gained from her student, either this kid was level minded or his skull was too thick to comprehend basic insults. The second it was thought it was buried with malevolent eyes as the booklet was shifted from her face. Her choice of actions was to get up and personal until a furry figure pulled her attention instantly upon whim. ”This F #^@$@$! Monkey!” blurting out as she pushed off the staff she viewed the hungry mouthed monkey raging to burn her mid section. The move would have caught many off guard and indeed any of the kid’s peers, But Houko was no armature. Luckily for her impulses had possessed her body to evacuate, but now that she knew the hiding place of that chim..he would have to brace himself for a beating , Her dilemma was with Vallen and not this assed out monkey. Elegance retained her balance while she braced her footing about a meter away. Tucking her booklet and pen away, she sequenced in numerous hand signs to while monitoring the monkey kid’s movement. At just finishing the signs, her ears twitched to the rattling metal as she caught glimpse of an incoming chain venturing for her student. Capitalizing on it, she acted as if this was her jutsu ”You got mail kid!” this may have thrown the little squirt off since chakra had built up on coincidence, but she could care less. Another factor had join the tussle, and she would have to exercise discipline on this unknown factor for intervening [/style]

thanks to the heads up from the lady jounin, Vallen and chimshim both saw the chain coming, but only just. I got this Chim-Chim yelled. Vallen spun hist stall,sending the hands that where arlready out up to direct it above Vallen's head. Vallen ducked and slid under the chain, with the help of his staff with arms directing it saftly away from him. Chim chim let the chain go and sucked his arms back into the staff and away from danger, though he put an eye on either end to get a good look as Vallen stepped into a more over spot.

Once Vallen was in a suitable spot,where the grass was low and the land was flat. He spun his staff around him,holding on to one end to make a bid circle around him but still maintained control. No way that was a Jounin's attack. Pulling the staff back to his body Vallen spun it around his body, from the left and then to the right, even around his torso and behind his back just to show off a little. Then as if he felt he was done he threw the staff into the air and turned his back on it, taking a well guarded stance, with his back wide open.

Though before anyone could think to attack his back his staff while spinning in the air started to turn back into Chim-chim. Nope, there another player out here. In the air Chim-chim still spun from the momentum of Vallen's skillful maneuvers his body twisting in the air as he landed on the ground,with his back right against Vallen's, protecting his blind spot. With a puff of smoke a staff appeared in Chim-Chim's hands, not the one he turned into a moment ago. This was a more plain and simple combat staff.

The two of them passed the staff between them seamlessly, having practiced this defensive technique for more than a few years. It was a basic two man defense but it was no less effective. Come on now, show your self. Let's play for real. The staff swung rapidly between then,one passing it to the other almost creating a visible ring of force around him. It was more than a little beautiful to look at, the teamwork was flawless and each moved with the other with out the need for a verbal command. For now the just kept the staff moving,keeping an eye out for the next attack.

Damn Monkey... Saseko thought, as he landed on the tree intended to be vallen’s prison. His sharingan granted him great clarity, he could see vallen’s body tense right before spinning the staff above his body, Saseko knew he was about to perry the attack and with the sharingan saw it coming, but it was already too late. His body couldn’t react in time, and the chip sent him off course. The Uchiha’s body twisted as the monkey let go of his chains, kicking up dust as he landed a few meters away from the Sarutobi.

Saseko held his weapon tightly, “Aye aye Saru-chan, and I guess Sensei huh?” He said looking from Vallen to the person he had first thought was a male. Saseko eyed his sensei’s body; she was something to lay eyes on. A blood rushed to his face as inappropriate images crept into the teenager’s mind. The boy wasn’t really the type to respect authority, and he damn sure wasn’t going to apologize for being late. “Starting without me I see, shame on you Saru-chan, I thought we were better than that?” Saseko said as he reached into his rations pouch, quickly plucking out a Hyorogan and placing it into his mouth.

Saseko couldn’t be careless on during their team’s first meeting, he couldn’t let this “monkey prince” look better than him. Saseko was still drained from the night before, the military ration pill would replenish the chakra he had wasted training. A few seconds after swallowing the pill, Saseko’s chakra flared a dark navy blue. “Saru-chan, let’s give Sensei a show” the tomoe in his sharingan swirled around his pupil; the uchiha dropped his Gunbai and sprinted towards vallen. The monkey boy was obviously defending.

Saseko was planning to overwhelm that defense and gain an opening on the monkey, deciding that the monkey was the weakest link, but could prove a nuisance. Once he was in mid-range, Saseko did a string of hand signs and leaped into the air, “Great Fireball Jutsu”. The blazing fireball soared from Saseko’s mouth, aiming to smash down on the monkey’s attempt to defend themselves.

Inspecting the young kid, she could easily sight the arrogance reeking off him, clearly a lifestyle for most genin confident in their abilities. A personal note was taken as the brats prepared to face off, that the kid’s personality maybe a drawback in the near future. Of course this was only first glance, she’d have to interact more with the kid to understand all his traits. As for the monkey kid, she already had an idea all thanks to Hokage debriefings. Yet she would keep a close eye on Vallen in case the kid flipped and she’d have to turn up the heat. Houko was confident she could handle the boy with maybe one or two tails but if more produce, she knew it would be more than a nuisance. Straightening up with arms crossed, Houko stood unamused as the second member of the team attempted to impress her. What lingered in her head at this point was concealed as she remained still observing both with harsh eyes. She had notice that Chim Chim played a valuable part in Vallen’s combat skills as they displayed their joint skill with the staff. ’Hope these two have more up their sleeves then show boating..’ before she knew it, the Uchiha had already rushed the monkey kid again with a great fire ball technique. However Vallen dodge this attack would determine Houko’s next move, for one she always capitalized on situations to suit her at all times and she be sure to do again this time around. One thing for sure, the Uchiha would pay a price...it was one thing to be early, but it was another thing to be late [/style]

Vallen and Chim-chim smiled as the "bold" new comer made his entrance. He seemed like he was going to be his new teammate. That made the majority of his team, only one missing. From what he could tell,Vallen knew he had his hands full. His jounin,punished him for being early and just decided to jump in and attack him and Chim-Chim with no warning. Vallen spat a bit of blood on the ground, remembering the vicious Knee he took from the jounin woman.

Now this new person shows up and uses chains to attack him while he was fighting a jounin and on the losing end no less. He was a Uchiha, which made sense. They where generally great ninja but they weren't knowing for having good fights, just winning fights. So he could tell right away they he would have rather taken him out with that attack and look like he was cool that fight Vallen head on and be shown up by a 9 year old.

As he was thinking, The older boy reached into his pocket and pulled out what looked like a blood pill. He was augmenting his chakra with a ninja tool which mean that he was trying to show off but didn't have a lot to show off with. No to mention he was predictable. Vallen could tell from the hand signs that it was going to be a fire jutsu. His years of studying Fire jutsu have had more than a few benefits. Not to mention that this jutsu was on his list, which was good and bad.

It was good because he now had someone to teach him how to use the jutsu, bad because he knew it would be the end of chim-Chim. Ok, chim-chim, Punch through it with the flame bullet, I'll do the rest. With a wild howl of agreement,Chim-chim took a deep breath of his own,passing the staff to Vallen one last time with one of his "feet". HE made the hand signs and spat out a vicious condensed ball of fire that shot with great speed towards the big fire ball.

Vallen however wasn't done. He took the staff and jumped up over Chim-chim,aiming for the hole he made. With 2 Lightning fast hand seals, Vallen sent out a stream of fire that joined with his monkey's fire,catching it's super hot train and making the bullet chim-chim Shot look more like a comet streaking towards the Uchiha boy. The size of the attacks where the key to Vallens plan. As the two attacks met,Chim-chim's powered through the center of it,creating a hole, but not only a hole, a quick current of air flowing towards cocky Uchiha boy.

Vallen heaved as his little body landed on the ground, next to the puff of smoke that used to be chim-chim. Prince Chim-chim had used up too much of his chakra and had no choice but to return to his natural home, leaving Vallen low on chakra and covered in scorch marks from the indirect damage he took from the jutsu the Uchiha used. This clothes where scorched and he was leaning a bit on his staff, his little body heaving with every breath. That a nice enough show for you!!
