Konoha

Name	Notes
Satzonetsu Daichi	Daichi-kun. He's a recently graduated student who spent a month in the academy with me before moving on. With him gone, there wasn't much reason to stay in the academy. So I'm off! … Sometimes things don't work out right. He's a really cool person, and it feels like he cares. I guess some kids rise above and are a lot more mature than usual
Uchiha Atorei	Uchiha. Uchiha Uchiha. Scary people with scary eyes. Atorei was the one whom first got me started from swinging my sword into trees to train, to using actual technique when I swing.
Inuzuka Atsuro	Atsuro is the first of many Inuzuka I've met. Never got to know his dog though. Shame. I really like land-otters. He helped me realize a little more about my sword work. Not a bad person at all!
Inuzuka Kaido	The head of the academy is an Inuzuka too! Not to mention he has -Three- land otters, and a masked otter to boot.
Inuzuka Hige Konsho	The scariest Inuzuka has to be Hige, with Konsho whom is his land otter. Konsho is definitely the nicer one between the two. Why, I like Konsho a lot. Konsho is a fun dog to play with. It makes me wish I was born an Inuzuka. wait, who are we talking about again?
Nara Tatsuo	He's really soft. Too soft. What a pain. I remember the first time I met him, he was kind of boring. Yet he did keep me from dieing when I was surrounded by so many people
Inuzuka Shinobu	Shinobu-sensei is another Inuzuka. Her dog is a lot smaller than Konsho, and a lot cuter. In fact, her dog played with me in the river. Perhaps her dog is a Kuwauso in disguise? > _ >

Kumogakure

Name	Notes
Saito Yori	The first person from another village I had met. His headband looked like a cloud. Anyways, he helped me learn better footwork, which was nice. Cloud-nin, as I will call them, are really skilled with a blade.

Kirigakure

Name	Notes
Doihara Akane	She was so confident behind the jail cells. Like she could get out at any time. Yet instead she made me wonder who I really was. Her forehead protector was one I had seen in my farmhouse so many times in my parent's secret places. It's something I need to ask my parents someday.

Tea

Name	Notes
Nagamura Shuuren	The Daimyo of tea, and my current sensei!
Satonezu Imire	Someone else who came from the Land of Fire, and a fellow blade in training!
Taisho Roku	A Maid working in the Daimyo's estate that appears to have a bit more than just cleaning skill
Inoue Shiiru	The meanest boy there is. Girl… He's a she, actually.
Daoma	The kind of swordsman I aspire to be someday.

October 2015 (OOC Date)

+ Arriving in Konoha

Week of: 10/5/2015

Kyaaaah! I guess you're s'pposed to write in these. I've never written in this silly old book, but now is as good as any time to take a good look back at the things I've done. Alright. Let's get started. So… Right, I'm here in Konoha. Got a nifty new place to lay my head as long as I'm a student. I'm a little excited I guess.

Thing is, It's not really me who wanted me to come here. Was my parents, actually. Really I have no idea. Happy birthday, you're sixteen. We're applying you as a student. You could probably see the expression on my face. I was just done finishing the season's harvest and I get told I'm leaving home. Didn't really want to leave home, but here I am. Better than getting the crack of a whip.

Ya'd think that Konoha would be a little more friendly to everyone. Seems like Konoha is just all about making sure everyone's s'pposed to be doing. It's kinda stifling. At least my parents gave me that blade that always sat on the mantle. Kaiyo's a special blade. It's a big blade made of seastone. Seastone sucks the water up, but releases it when you focus it…

Not sure about that, haven't been able to do it myself.

+ Academy...

Week of: 10/12/2015

So it's like this. Been in the academy for a couple of weeks… They're all little tykes, whipping around and playing. Those who are about to graduate are a little more head-on-shoulders if you know what I mean, but overall they don't know the disconnect between mouth and brain. They're making fun of my name, which would be fine, but they're also making fun of my age… The Academy would be a much easier place to deal with. Kaido-sensei seemed like a nice 'nuff person. It's not just that, either. We're learning a few things that I don't appreciate. Like that henge technique. I refuse! … The other kids didn't, and I can bet you know that some of them henged into me and made fun of me too.

I got Kaiyo. Finally made him cry. I mean, I finally made Kaiyo release the water it absorbed. It all happened after learning handseals. I accidentally used ninjutsu too. So far so good, but I find myself having trouble getting myself up in the morning. The only time I feel good is when I'm out on the field on my own, practicing… Now if I can just get this blade to work with me. So heavy…

+ Maybe it's time to rethink...

Week of: 10/19/2015

Daichi is probably the only kid in that school whom actually never laughed at me. Now he's graduated, and I'm not sure what to do now. I found out while I was -sitting in- on a delivery mission…

It's funny…

I've worked really hard to get good at my sword, so that I could have something to show for everything. Yet, it doesn't really matter. I could swing a blade all day, but it won't get me respect. I've had a lot of help. Atorei, the Uchiha, he helped me with technique, by giving me a wooden sword to practice with. Yori helped me with footwork, but he had a strange forehead protector. Atsuro gave me a few pointers, but… I couldn't take his offer. I don't want to be in the academy anymore. It's not for everyone, but I've already been told that if I drop out I won't be respected.

There's only one thing to do. I've got to take a trip. Leave the household again, this time to find out how to become a ninja not from teachers and mean little kids, but through experience. I'm old enough. I head out soon! It's all a matter of letting those who left a good impression on me that I'll be gone…

(P.S. None of that at all bothers me. I'm not really dropping out of the academy because I can't take the work or over learning a silly technique I'll never use. I'm dropping out because I'm trying to get away from the ones that henged into Daichi and tried 'ta kill me. I'll never learn how to henge. It's demoncraft.)

+The first Step:Land of Tea

Week of: 10/19/2015

This place is great. When I first entered this land, I was greeted by more farms than the eye could see. Farms in Konoha are surrounded by forests, so you often get trouble seeing your neighbors I s'ppose. The actual village of Tea is inhabited by a Daimyo. His name is Shuuren. 'S pretty hard to talk to a Daimyo, but I did it. Guess he liked it when girls stuttered, because he gave me a place to stay for a while.

Not to mention he's also training me with my skill with Kaiyo. I guess he knows the way to my heart is hard work 'n dedication, cause I don't really care about any of the other stuff like food, money, and other things he's trying to give me. I'm not so shallow like that…

I think.

If I wrote that the whole story was about some Daimyo, then it'd be a really silly story. There's other people in Tea too, like Shiiru. I don't know anymore if Shiiru is a girl or boy. I stopped caring at the time I wrote this…

November 2015 (OOC Date)

+ The Daimyo's Training

This week I set off training as per the Daimyo's instructions. He has been very, very generous with his time and money. He has given me a place to sleep. For this, I am thankful. I have not trained in my ninjutsu since Konoha, and every time I use the seastone blade I end up getting soaked. This huge blade is ungainly and unwieldy, and focusing my chakra into it just isn't cutting it. This week, I met Shiiru. A wierd boy who likes to pick on me. I don't really like him that much. I feel like he is more a rival for the Daimyo's attention…

Why am I fighting over the Daimyo's attention!? I don't care. He is just nice, is all. I am preparing to send a letter back to those whose attentions I do care about. Daichi. I hope my message reaches him…

+ The Order of the Flowing River

This weak I was attacked. It was late one night, a time I like to train because… no one can see me screw up when I train at night I s'ppose. Then, out of nowhere did Shuuren show up! Then… So did Hige and Shinobu! Then it happened. It started to rain, but the rain was not rain. It was ninja. They tried to take me away, but they weren't prepared for three ninja. I was saved.

They called themselves the Order of the Flowing River, and they had one simple order. That I never return to Konoha. You can be sure that the day I return to Konoha is the day that I can stand up for myself.

+ The Seastone Blade Reforged

I noticed my blade slowly becoming bent. The thick metal just wasn't strong enough to take the punishment I was doling. Shuuren took it and had it reforged. I felt… A little hesitant, since it was a family heirloom. When I got it back, I felt terrible. It was smaller. It still was waved, but it was more like a katana. It… It seems to be far more durable. I can actually focus my chakra into it properly.

Just you wait, Daichi. When I return to Konoha, I'll be strong! I'll be genin material, and won't have to worry about the children laughing at my age…

+ Kumogakure and Daichi

This week, I traveled up to Kumogakure for a visit. It was with Shuuren, Roku, and Shiiru. Well, we didn't do anything of real note. Shuuren came to help Sachiko learn how to be a medic. that was it. I naturally just spent time to myself, because… I don't know… New places are scary.

The only interesting part of the trip was seeing an old friend. I mean, it has only been a few months since I have seen Daichi. It was good to catch up nevertheless.

I'm also learning how to write better. Now I'm getting the hang of Kanji. I should be writing more kanji in this book.

December 2015 (OOC Date)

+ Mission: The Tech-nin of the Builder's Village

Ninjutsu without seals or chakra of any kind. There is actually a village in a far off land that makes weapons and gear of great technology. We fought two of these individuals on a mission. One such individual attacked us with oil, and fireworks. Us, being Roku, Shuuren, and I. Though, even he was a joke. The real shinobi from the Craftsman Village actually had quite an array of non-chakra jutsu. He blew fire from underneath his arms, and even used it to jet away. Nothing of course, is a match for the Daimyo.
It seems like people captured by the Daimyo are never seen again. Everytime he has taken someone away in his dungeons, they are kept down below forever. It's a little scary.

+ Arrival of Imire

On a trip to the island of Nagi in the Land of Tea, we came across a boy my age who aspired to become a swordsman just like me! It started as a simple mission in which we saved him from bandits. Well, not bandits. They were just disgruntled construction workers that took to a life of trying to replicate what the Yakuza had done. Shuuren and I quickly dispatched them before they did unruly things to him! As a result, he soon came with us back to Tea.
He is a pretty shy individual, but it is nice to have someone to train with. He has some flaws, but he also has many good points about him. I think, with time, he will become a good swordsman! It's also nice to be called senpai…

+ Moving the Parents to Tea?

I have just returned from a simple trip to pick up my parents from the border of the Land of Fire, but things have been going horrible wrong. My parents were barely given a chance to talk before Shuuren had them on the ground. I thought he killed them, but now I know he is just taking them to a dungeon. I know my parents were spies now, but they were spies on Konoha… They just wanted to teach me my birthright… I don't know why Shuuren acted the way he did, but I do know that soon enough I will get my parents free. This had to be some misunderstanding…

+ Hydrification Technique, and The True Purpose of the Seastone Blade

I have learned the first step of the Hydrification Technique, and my mother has explained why Hydrification works so well with the Seastone Blade. Hydrification is turning our bodies into water momentarily at the point of attack, or even becoming water for long periods of time. Why does this matter? It matters because the seastone blade is actually capable of temporarily 'drinking' the Hozuki, making it a very flexible weapon for our clan.
I have not yet learned how to do this, because my ninjutsu is still a little… bad… Yet soon! Soon I think I'll be able to properly use my clan's technique and their kenjutsu in tandem together. Maybe this will help me become more useful to Shuuren, so I can pay off my debts to him more quickly… Maybe…

August 2016 (OOC Date)

+ Saki and a Period of Listlessness 

The Land of Tea has been slow going. I sometimes regret leaving home, because when my parents came to the Land of Tea and taught me my Hozuki ancestry, they have been causing me a fair amount of trouble. What troubles me the most, however, is Saki. She came unannounced and appeared as if she had been in Tea all along. She was very close to the Daimyo rather quickly, and I find that to be relatively suspicious.

She claims to be Imire's cousin, and I'm inclined to believe it. Her black hair is almost the exact same, and her green eyes are not a pigment different. I have spent many months in etiquette training to try and fit in with the Daimyo's guard, and while my ability to remember Imire has waned, I have a strange feeling I know Saki. I just simply won't let onto it.

+ Death of the Parents

My parents, since coming to Tea, have been whispering traitorous thoughts into my mind. They are subtle. Subtle, but I am no longer the naive child I once was. I know exactly what they whisper. I can hear the soft messages behind their soothing words. Their worried drivel about my health, and occasionally questioning my mental faculties worries me. They don't care about living here, with me, in luxury. They only care about furthering the agenda of the Order of the Flowing River. They just want me as an intelligence feed.

I opted to kill them. It was proof that I had no other loyalty than that to Shuuren. My parents were my last ties to the outside. With their blood on my heirloom blade, only I decide my destiny.

+ Cursed Seal of the Deep Sea

It burns, the mark. It wasn't long after my show of loyalty, that the Daimyo decided that I would bare this mark. I consider it, completely, a distinguished award for my service to him and my loyalty. Strangely, though, I now hear Shuuren's voice sometimes. Furthermore, every time I focus my chakra, I feel like a lose it. I feel this mark crawling on my skin during every minute of every hour. I don't want to get it off, because the Daimyo told me how important it was. He told me that as it grew, we would become closer and he would be able to find me if I was in need of assistance. I trust him implicitly.

+ Tower of the Jade Scholars

The Daimyo, Saki, and I journeyed to an island between Tea and Kirigakure today. It was a tower in the midst of a mist storm of some sort that seemed to be hiding for a reason. Inside was a library so vast that it could have only been an ancient work. Lightning cascaded around the building, shocking anyone who touched it. Scrolls were defended by serpents of a brood unfamiliar to Shuuren. There was even a great snake known as Hisomu guarding the lower levels. The Daimyo managed to placate it as long as he returned the true owner of the tower to claim their rightful place.

Personally, I do not care about the history of this place. It is hard enough for me to read, much less care about reading. Saki, however, found it far more delightful than I.
