"There was a time when I doubted myself and felt like a nobody, but no more! I will do everything I can to better myself so that I will never let anyone down!"
Miyo is a rather lovely, young student at the academy in Konohagakure who moved to the village from Amegakure when she was seven. As a member of the Uzumaki clan, she excels with fuinjutsu and combines her knowledge of seals with kenjutsu taught to her by her mother to make her own style. Most people who are familiar with Miyo know nothing of her past in Amegakure, and she rarely speaks about it. To many, its like she never existed before Konoha.
For many, life in Amegakure was a daunting and thankless existence. This was no different for Miyo's parents, Masashi and Hana Uzumaki. Hana of the Kishimoto clan had lived in Amegakure since she was little; however, Uzumaki Masashi had not, he had moved there four years before Miyo's birth, and had met Hana and hit off to a wonderful, budding relationship. Eventually, Miyo was born. Hana did not fare well during childbirth, she had been sick and weakened, and when Miyo was finally ready, Hana was not. She barely survived, but it was all worth it. She and Masashi were overjoyed to have their new, baby girl.
They immediately settled on the name Miyo, which had been Hana's grandmother's name, and found the task of raising a child to be a pleasant distraction from the rigors of living in Amegakure and dealing with the political uncertainty always swirling around the village. Miyo was a strong and healthy baby, and was rarely sick, and often times would get rather upset at the rare, periodic breaks in the rain that doused the village incessantly in ridiculous volumes. She, like others from the village, would grow to love the rain and feel at home in it.
When Miyo turned five, her parents hired a private teacher to instruct their child in academic subjects, fearing to let Miyo out into the village, especially since Amegakure was on the brink of civil war every day, and it was never safe. When the instructor arrived, Hana had sat down with Miyo to talk to her daughter about the instructor. Neither had really known what to expect. Miyo had never met anyone other than her family, having been primarily isolated for her own safety, and Hana was a bit suspicious of the instructor who Masashi had hired. She did not know him, nor did she trust him around her precious child.

Miyo had never met anyone other than her family, having been primarily isolated for her own safety, and Hana was a bit suspicious of the instructor who Masashi had hired. She did not know him, nor did she trust him around her precious child.
When the instructor arrived, he introduced himself to Hana as Harutobi Jinta, an experienced personal instructor who had taught several children Miyo's age throughout the village over his lifetime. As Hana had feared though, Miyo was very shy. She was unwilling to get close and talk to Harutobi, and the first day progressed with absolutely nothing being accomplished beyond an introduction. So, after an hour, Harutobi left. After he was gone, Hana and her daughter had a little talk about people, and trust, and not talking to strangers and stuff of that nature, but at the end, both felt a little more confident about the next day. However nothing improved.
Miyo was still incapable of talking with Harutobi even though she wanted to. It seemed that the first lesson she'd have to learn was opening up to people. Inside, Miyo was a lovely, free-spirited child with a heart of gold, but she was apparently unable to express herself around strangers. Hana was afraid that it was her fault for having kept her daughter cooped up for so long, but Masashi reassured her that it was natural for some children to be shy and that Miyo would find a way to work out of it. Three days later, she finally managed to have a full conversation with Harutobi, and Hana was finally able to relax.
Her lessons finally began, and Harutobi started teaching Miyo how to read and write, and basic mathematical concepts that would be helpful later on, but his primary focus was on languages. Over the first two months, Miyo showed exceptional skills in reading and writing and progressed quickly, and for someone so young, her hand writing was impeccable and neat, something that would transfer over nicely into her future as a seal-specialist. However, one evening, Harutobi had a strange conversation with Masashi, one that Miyo remembers little of, but it seemed to concern her father. Amegakure was closer to civil war than ever before, and Harutobi had asked Miyo's father whose side he'd choose. However, he refused to commit.
What happened next was terrible. A small civil war did break out between two internal factions of Amegakure, one of which Harutobi was a proud member of. With the refusal of Harutobi's offer by Masashi, the teacher was quite frustrated, as acquiring the Uzumaki's seal-using prowess would have proved invaluable to his cause; he was instead forced into some more dire measures. Two days after the outbreak of the conflict, Harutobi did the unthinkable. While Hana was not paying attention to the two, he abducted their daughter and disappeared into the rain. As soon as Hana noticed, she panicked. She had no idea what had happened, and was incapable of rationalizing that Harutobi had actually kidnapped their daughter. Only her husband would be able to figure that out, which he did when he returned an hour later.
The two furious parents set off into the night of Amegakure, despite the civil war breaking out, in order to find Harutobi. It did not take them long, because the old man was waiting for them with the offer of fighting for his side in the conflict or losing their daughter, who could be taught to wield a weapon or even a bomb in defense of their beliefs. This angered her parents further, but they were not stupid. They had to find their daughter without Harutobi noticing them and that would not be easy. The old man was no slouch when it came to the shinobi arts.
Miyo, who was being kept in a rather dark and dank basement was not really pleased with her predicament. She was scared something fierce, crying and screaming for her parents, but stopped soon after when she realized no one was coming to save her. She had a few things to occupy her, at least. She had been left some old chalk, and so she occupied herself by drawing all over the walls. For a child, she had a rather gifted memory, and before long she transitioned from letters and numbers to designs she had seen her father draw out for later use. They were seals used for Fuinjutsu, though she had no idea how they worked or what they were for.
The trials of her parents were difficult. Masashi went to fight in the conflict alongside a shadow clone of Hana in order to deceive Harutobi while the real Hana searched for their daughter. The search was painfully slow, however, perhaps by a stroke of luck, Hana was able to see Harutobi leaving his headquarters where he had been keeping Miyo and she infiltrated the building to find Miyo in the basement. Her daughter had covered the walls with hundreds of seals over the five days she was missing. As Hana took Miyo from the basement, she was confronted by Harutobi who used his wind jutsu to soundly defeat Hana who was unable to stand up against the veteran. As she lay unconscious with Miyo cowering next to her, Masashi arrived. The battle between the two was fierce, but eventually Harutobi was defeated and Masashi took Hana and Miyo and retreated to their home to recover.
No longer willing to rely on outsiders, Hana was entrusted with educating Miyo. While she did not have the same experience someone like Harutobi had, she was able to teach Miyo effectively, as she did not have to continuously work around a barrier of discomfort. However, despite the teaching being easy, the year after Miyo's kidnapping was not easy. She was easily startled, even more afraid of strangers than before, and trusted no one but her parents. Hana and Masashi loved their child, and did everything they could for her, but one day, Masashi suggested something new. In order for their child to become comfortable with her surroundings, they had to teach her to defend herself. Hana had told him about what she had seen in the basement when she rescued Miyo, and so, Masashi began instructing his precious child in the way's of his clan's sealing mastery.
Miyo enjoyed working with seals. However, Hana was not content with just that. She felt that more might be needed, and being an expert with kenjutsu, she began teaching Miyo taijutsu, eventually planning to teach her to wield a sword. Miyo adapted well to the teachings. She excelled in academics because of experience, but working with seals entertained her and stretched the limits of her brain and chakra capabilities while working with her mother increased her stamina and physical strength. Miyo's parents had high hopes for her, and as time passed, they became less certain of their home in Amegakre, and began making plans to leave.
Masashi suggested they transfer to Konohagakure with other Uzumaki and the Senju clan who would certainly welcome them, as they were on good terms. Hana was somewhat reluctant to leave her home, but decided it would be best to get out of Amegakure for Miyo's sake. And so, they packed up their things and left, and then at age seven, Miyo found herself living in Konoha.
Living in Konoha was far different than Amegakure. People were kind, generous, and looked out for each other, at least on the outside. There were strong, prolific shinobi in the village, and it gave comfort to Miyo's parents. However, Miyo was too trusting of people, even after being kidnapped, an event that Miyo never truly understood, and that worried Hana. She was hesitant to let her child go, but Masashi helped her realize that if Miyo was to grow socially, she needed to be with other kids her age in order to develop bonds and friendships, and that was one of the most important things for a shinobi.
Miyo made friends. Two good friends were found right away, however, beyond those two she never did fare well with people. She received a lot of teasing from the other village kids because she we an outsider, and it tended to get her very down. When she returned home, her mother would worry because Miyo would rarely talk, and even when she did, it was not much. Miyo was filled with sadness, but her two friends kept her from falling too deeply into depression. Eventually, Miyo got fed up with it, and encouraged by her friends she got into a fight with several other children. Even though she sustained several bad wounds which left her incapacitated for several days, she was never teased again. Her bravery and courage changed the views of the other children, and soon she began to fit in far better.
At age ten, Miyo was admitted to the academy in Konohagakure after meeting the requirements of loving the village and hoping to help preserve peace and prosperity, having a mind that will not yield, being able to endure hard training and work, and being healthy in mind and body. Miyo was all of these things and more. Unlike some other students, she had received training from her parents before going to the academy, so many of her basic skills already showed some development. Likewise, her academics were quite a bit above most other students at her level, and so, teachers held her in high regard and had hopes for a bright future for Miyo.
Miyo loved being at the academy, she enjoyed Taijutsu classes the most. She had a great deal of fun working on her stamina and many of the activities really appealed to her. Ninjutsu classes were less appealing. She loved working with fuinjutsu like her father, not so much anything else, so she often slacked in her ninjutsu development where she was uninterested. However, her parents did encourage her to take it seriously, because if she didn't, she wouldn't be able to graduate from the academy. In her genjutsu training, Miyo realized she was not fond of genjutsu. She was more than capable of finding it and dispelling it, but her views on such tactics were not that great. She agreed that she would likely never use genjutsu.
On her eleventh birthday, Miyo received a wonderful gift from her mother, one that Hana had been waiting to give her precious daughter for quite some time - a sword. Her parents told Hana that if she were to ever become a real shinobi, she would master the use of the sword and her seal techniques, and if she did, she would become a powerful shinobi. However, Miyo misunderstood her parent's words. Hana and Masashi had hoped that Miyo would learn to use each of their techniques separately, but Miyo decided what they meant was she had to combine them, and so she began working on just that. She began devising and training with seals that she planned to someday add to her sword's scabbard which she tended to seal shut, and even to the sword itself, so each strike would be more dangerous than just being clubbed or slashed. While Masashi was concerned that it would never work, Hana thought it was a great idea for her child to do so, and encouraged her every step of the way.
Note on background: Information in the tabs "A Precious Child", "The Betrayer", and "I will be Strong!", is all stuff that people from Amegakure would possibly be familiar with, but no one else, unless they actually investigate the information. Information in "Miyo's New Home" and "The Academy" would be information known to those in Konohagakure, but likely no where else unless investigated. If you wish to ICly learn information from one of these segments, you will need to acquire that information from Miyo herself.
Personality
Miyo has led a rough life. She grew up in Amegakure, a village that tends to be rife with civil war and infighting, power grabs, murder, and even assassinations, and because of this she was isolated in her home, living the majority of her early years without meeting anyone other than her family. Surely, she had some stunted social development early on, and it was proven when she met the first outsider, Harutobi Jinta. Miyo was shy, so shy that she refused to even speak, perhaps was even incapable of doing so, for the first day with the instructor. It took several days and a lot of encouragement from her mother to actually open up and begin talking with Harutobi. The results would be worth it, however, as Miyo was a wonderfully generous, kind, and loving child with the free-spirited nature often seen in the children of the Uzumaki clan.
As she further developed in her own way, she became passive, quiet, and thoughtful, particularly so after being kidnapped. She may not have understood what was going on at the time, and still doesn't realize what had really occurred, but it seemed to be the turning point for the lively child. Becoming more withdrawn and finding happiness inside of herself, Miyo grew rapidly on a cognitive level, maturing at a rapid rate. By the time she was seven and preparing to move to Konohagakure, Miyo was already far more developed mentally than most of her peers. Arrival in Konoha, despite improving her safety, did have adverse affects on her personal development.
Miyo's withdrawn nature made it relatively hard to find friends, however, she did manage to make two. They were kind to her, and saw past her general quietness to the kind heart inside of her, but others did not. She was targeted, bullied, and teased for being an outsider, looking strange, acting funny, and having strange habits. Miyo didn't really understand, and she was deeply hurt by many of the remarks the other kids made. She began moving towards depression, and her mother, Hana, was gravely worried. She tried to comfort her daughter, but it only slowed the advancing depression. It was Miyo's friends who finally helped her. They encouraged her to stand up for herself, and she did. Mustering every ounce of courage she had, Miyo confronted her bullies and fought with them until she was unable to stand back up. Her valiant effort, as well as the damage she dealt, proved to the others that she was not to be messed with and that she was strong, capable, and fierce. Soon after, the bullying ended and a life of happiness returned.
Since the end of the bullying, Miyo has developed well, however, she still withdraws from the world from time to time to spend time by herself where she is truly, one hundred percent happy.
Since meeting Midori, her new best friend, Miyo has opened up and become far more bright and cheerful. Along with other people she has met, Miyo has become a very fun-loving, competitive student with a more-than-outgoing personality, and almost no reservations about doing anything she can to better herself.

Appearance
Miyo is a young girl with several noticeable features that make her stand out from others. The first is her incredibly lengthy, ash-colored haired which tends to hang loosely along her back, over her shoulders, and occasionally down over her chest. Generally, Miyo wears her hair back in a long ponytail in order to keep it in a manageable state, and has noticeably shorter hair towards the front of her head to make sure that it doesn't get too obnoxious. The second noticeable feature of Miyo is her eyes which are a strange, pale yellow. Her eyes are not very striking, and tend to give her a very passive or dull look, nor do they really stand out as an overly appealing color.
Some people consider Miyo attractive, though she is not usually the one to draw all the attention right away. On her own, she tends to have more appeal due to many of her features not standing out, because of this, she tends to go unnoticed by her peers. Sometimes, she used to think it may have been because of her lack of a fun, exciting personality, and she may have been right, because lately, people seem to notice her much more.
She is a tall girl, standing several inches taller than most of her female peers on average, and has a slender figure with athletically toned muscles. Recently, she has started developing into a woman, attaining more of a lady-like figure. While her hips have not grown much, and she seems more likely to never gain much, they are still wide enough to give her a bit of a figure. Likewise, her bust has shown some slight development and promises to yield some volume in the future in at attempt to add some feminine physical charisma.
Miyo dresses as passively as she appears. She generally has a compilation of the mesh or fishnet garb that shinobi tend to wear in either a shirt form or shorts/leggings and will cover it with a rather plain, open-fronted top and belt it shut with a wide sash or will wear a baggier, full-length t-shirt with long-sleeves. She will often wear sandals and possibly stockings or leg warmers, or default to boots over socks and wrappings. Miyo tends to wear her forehead protector around her neck with a scarf or on its own. More often than not she will have her arms wrapped in cloth which may not start the day with seals on it, but will tend to end with them covered in seals for fuinjutsu.
Miyo generally has seals somewhere on her body in order to summon forth a multitude of ranged weaponry like shuriken, fuuma shuriken, and kunai, on top of which she will carry a small amount the weaponry on her person. Miyo almost always has her beloved sword, a gift from her mother, slung over her shoulder. The sword itself is a beautiful sword of exceptional craftsmanship, on par with legendary blades.
Skills And Abilities
Taijutsu
Miyo is split down the center between Taijutsu and Ninjutsu style techniques. In the taijutsu department, she focuses almost exclusively upon Kenjutsu, however, she does have some talents with other weapons like kunai and shuriken as well as striking with her body. Her training with the sword has come primarily from her mother, a proficient kenjutsuist in her own right, and as such, she has passed on the majority of her knowledge to Miyo. While Hana has definitely taught her daughter a great deal, Miyo has developed her own style for the sword.

In order to fully utilize her unique talents, Miyo does not unsheathe her sword, in fact, the majority of her fighting is done using the scabbard in place of the blade, which tends to be wrapped in cloth. Because of this, she does not care much about making hard contact and delivering powerful blows, but evading attacks and using speed to make contact with her opponents in order to smash people and deal damage to them instead of killing them. She has developed this style particularly because she does not fight true foes, and fights pretty much only comrades in Konoha. Until a time she requires drawing her blade for actual battle, it will remain sealed so she does not kill anyone.
Ninjutsu
Miyo's Ninjutsu consists almost entirely of Fuinjutsu, at least, so far. Coming from the Uzumaki Clan, it isn't a surprise that she prefers using seal-based techniques over other types of Ninjutsu. Like other Uzumakis, she is capable of great feats with her fuinjutsu and has been shown to learn incredibly fast, going so far as to learn practically on sight. Miyo seems to have somewhat of a photographic memory when it comes to seals, and once she has seen one, it only takes a short amount of time and practice for her to figure out how to effectively activate it. Once she has learned it, she will add it to her arsenal in as many ways as possible.
Because of her love for fuinjutsu, seals cover practically everything that can be used as a weapon by Miyo, particularly her arms and legs which she uses to drastically increase her abilities by pumping her own chakra back into her from battery-like seals. Anything that can be used to effectively make contact with an enemy is bound to have a seal placed on it. She once wore a seal on a headband and used it to headbutt her father during a training exercise, throwing him for a loop, and being one of the first times she had been able to actually hit her father in their spars.
By utilizing speed and mobility, as well as quick wits and tactical smarts, Miyo is able to out maneuver her foes and use seals to bind or capture them, or in more extreme cases, to eliminate them all together.

Kunai, along with the shuriken, is one of the most common ninja tools. It is a black dagger designed for thrusting and stabbing, though it can still do some damage if thrown despite not being designed for it, and is about the length of one's hand.
Miyo carries a fair number of kunai inside of a seal wrapped onto her right wrist, which is used to summon them into her right hand.
They are sharpened,four-pronged metal stars, useful for throwing. Although small, they can be used to distract, pin down enemy shinobi, or if accurate enough, can be deadly. They have an open circle in the centre, used for grabbing with a finger, to avoid cutting oneself, or to put thread through. The circle is also beneficial to the weapons overall aerodynamics, ensuring more accurate trajectories.
Miyo carries an incredible amount of shuriken, finding them more to her style than kunai. She has them in a seal on her left wrist, wrapped onto it in bandages. She uses this to summon them into her left hand.
The rope dart is a long rope (usually 3 - 5 metres) with a metal dart attached to one end. This was a weapon from ancient times, which allows the user to throw the dart out at a long range target and use the rope to pull it back. The rope dart can be used for twining, binding, circling, hitting, piercing, tightening, and other techniques.
Rope dart play consists of twining, shooting, and retrieval. Twining and shooting can be done from any joint such as foot, knee, elbow, and neck. The rope is anchored on the left hand and played primarily with the right hand.
Miyo carries two rope darts, one on either hand in seals on the inside of her robe or wrapped on her wrists. While they generally must be thrown, activating one of her rope darts can fire it like a projectile the first time it is used.
Today I witnessed possibly the most cutest of things. It was totally a flirty-moment between the new sensei, Hayashi-san and his apparent assistant Nara-san! I couldn’t tell for sure, but it seemed like Nara-san swooned all over and then fell into his arms, throwing her own around him and resting in his manly embrace! *Exaggerations*
I bet he buys her flowers every day! And chocolate too, lots of chocolate, and then Nara-san sneaks into all of his lessons and they show all their affection for the entire world to see! It’s so cute… Oh! I wish I could have a lovey-love relationship like that too! Tee-hee!
I totally know that this is all true because I witnessed it myself and then when I said something about it Satomi ran over to me all embarrassed about her affections for Hayashi-san and then made me be quiet to hide it from everyone else, as if they couldn’t see it! She was so red it was sooo cute!
I will have to keep my eyes out for more of their love-dovey antics!
So… I met another weird person today. It seems the world is so full of strange people that I’m not really sure what I’ll do about it. But yeah, this guy totally went all shark-fin in the lake. He swam ALL the way across the lake. Not just like… a little swim, but ALL the way. That’s a lot of work. Then he gets up and goes all swamp monster as he gets out of the water. Why do I meet all these crazy people?
Wakahisa Ryoji… Man of the people. Wonder Merchant. And….that’s all, he supposed. Well! I know what he is! Wakahisa Ryoji, Master Creeper and Shark-fin Man!
So, a while ago we went on this “vacation”. I think when moooost people think of vacations, they think of nice, sunny places with lots of beaches and stuff like that. We, however, went to Amegakure. I don’t know why we went there. I think it was so my mom could do some stuff since she is from Amegakure. I know I was born there too, but I don’t really remember a whole lot of things from back then except for some spotty stuff shortly before moving to Konoha.
Like I figured though, the vacation was tooootally rainy. I like the rain though, so it was okay. But there was a lot of mud. I don’t really like mud. Mud and me don’t mix well, in fact, I prefer not to have mud anywhere near me. It’s gross. And it smells funny.
Me and Dad stayed in a hotel for a while since my mom had to go out. We talked a bit, but then it got awkward and got more awkward since no one was talking so I took a nap. When I woke back up, mom was there, so we played some games and worked on my seal-training before going to bed.
So, there I am, one day, sleeping peacefully and all that, when all of a sudden someone starts banging on my window and wakes me. Of course, the only person who would actually go through all the work to figure out where I live would be Fudo. I don’t know how he found me, but it’s totally awkward. At least wait until I am awake…
Not only that, but as soon as I step outside the door, he basically tells me he is going to stalk me and offers me a lunchbox. The food was okay, and at least it was free. But… like… I have a stalker now. And it’s Fudo. At least if I have a stalker I want it to be some cute, nice, shy boy or something! Not stupid Fudo!
A while back, I was rather uncertain if I wanted to continue being a shinobi. So, while I pondered whether or not my decision was the correct one, which I would later learn, was not, I had to find something to occupy the loads of free time I had in place of all my training and studying. So, I capitulated on the uhh… fact that I laid claim to one of the trees by the lake one day during a moment of what may-or-may not have been spying… and built a tree fort!
It was a lot of work, and in the end, I think it was worth it! I built it in the biggest tree at the lake! It is so big, that I built a really big treefort! It has a nice hatch-door with a welcome mat and a sign that says “no boys allowed” to keep people like that pesky Nori out. Inside, I made sure that I had a window overlooking the lake, since that is prime viewing right there, and then I covered it with a nice, heavy curtain to keep the wind and weather out. I also made sure that the roof ventilated a bit, so that I can use a little fire stand I made on the inside to keep the place warm and cook a bit. I also put a bed in there! And a stash of goodies in case I need a snack.
I think it was toooootally a good idea, and now that I am a shinobi again, I have a base!
Last night we had the first step of our graduation… thing. We uh, were abducted in the middle of night and drug out to the forest and tested on our skills and stuff. At first, it was kind of weird, but I got paired with Midori, so it was nice. Apparently we got really lucky!
Well, first off, they made us like.. dodge some stuff. That was easy for me, but Midori got whacked a good one on the way through, but not as bad as some of the crappy students! After that, we had to uhmm.. I don’t even know. There were a couple people loitering around a bunch of supplies. Maybe if we needed them we were supposed to get them, but we didn’t, so we moved on! Got ahead of everyone else or something.
We then had to cross a gorge that apparently wasn’t really there. I had Midori to thank for that, except I already got across… so… whatever. After that, we had to go against one of our sensei! It was scary at first, but then he stopped and told us to sit on a stump… so we did… then we got our grades… and passed that part. It was nice. Midori was definitely happy, so I was happy!
So, between graduation and… well… whatever it is I usually do, I got bored. So, I decided to work on my stealth, and at the same time, help everyone else out with various things… So, I made paper airplanes. Lots of them. And I wrote messages on them.
Each message demands… or occasionally requests people do things! Like do a delivery for someone, each with the promise of some reward. Well, I have nothing to reward people with, so they just get nothing, hehe! Either way, I like to watch them and make them fetch me treats, because a lot of the store owners will only sell so many to me at a time which means its a good way around that! I'm so sneeeakky!!
I've been friends with Uchiha Midori for…. a long time now. And, well, I really, really appreciate her friendship. Its far more important to me than anyone could ever imagine, even her! I'm pretty sure she doesn't know how… important she has been in who I have become. Before I met her, I was… well, I was shy, I had no friends, I didn't have… the same work ethic I do now, but when I met her, I met someone who was like me. She was shy, she was uncertain and had few friends, her work ethic was okay, but she was so timid and worried about her abilities so much that… well… it inspired me to be someone she could look up to, and could rely upon! So, I worked… and I worked really, really, really, reaaaaaaally hard.
The other day, we went out to investigate some… crazy weird ghost mansion thing. I'm not sure whhyyy we were there in the first place. Some stupid kids told us there was treasure and I'm pretty sure we were determined not to be considered cowards, but holy crap… we got there and it was really messed up! Ghosts are totally real, and they were not friendly! They scared the crap out of me so bad, and even Midori, who was apparently some ghost fanatic, got freaked out. So, I totally passed out after we escaped and Midori carried me all the way back to Konoha…
When I woke up and realized that she had saved me… I was overwhelmed, and well, between all my love for her and the action of saving me… I sort of kissed her. It was a bit of a surprise to both of us, but… I liked it… I don't know if she did, and it worries me… hopefully nothing bad comes of it.
So, these… chuunin exams that everyone is talking about are going on. At first, I thought they were tests for chuunin. It totally made sense to me, but.. apparently they are tests for genin like me, to see if they are worthy of becoming chuunin! I was totally not informed of this! So, I'm apparently missing out or something, because its such a big deal that people are coming in from all over the world. Konoha is basically being overrun by foreigners and I guess that's okay. It gives me something to do.
With all these silly foreigners around, I had to do something, so, I got together with a few of my favorite Konoha people and we set up a little game for the foreigners… I've gotten a few of them to bite on it so far, and they've had a nice time! Basically, I just lead them around town and show them all the good stuff so they can appreciate Konoha us much as we do! It's totally a great idea!
But maybe I'll get into the real exam next time… Pfft…
I never really thought I'd ever get to leave Konoha, but I just left for Kumogakure to visit some of my friends! They don't know I am coming yet, but I certainly think they will be surprised and happy to see me! I know I am excited to see them, but maybe I should have thought this through a little more. This guy I am traveling with is pretty sketchy and I'm not sure if I should trust someone who smells like rotten beans - it's gross!
So far my trip has been okay. It's rained a lot, and its been cold, but I will survive! I am tough! Mhmm! If I weren't tough, I don't think going to see these Yotsuki people because they are weird and kind of insane… I'm not always sure how to handle their silly antics. Hehe… but that's just me. Maybe they will be different in Konoha? I doubt it, though…
My arrival in Kumogakure was as surprising for my friends, like I said! They totally did not expect me to show up out of no where… thankfully they are my friends because I did not have anywhere to stay! Not that I wasn't prepared to just sleep outside if I had to, but Nariko-chan offered to let me stay with her! It is a really nice thing to hear when your friend is willing to take care of you. Hehe…
Nariko has a funny house. Its made of rocks and stuff, and she has a maid or something named Mai. She is really nice and a great cook - which I suppose she has to be because the Yotsuki like to eat and they eat a lot. I'm not sure how Nariko eats so much and doesn't get as big as an Akimichi! Hehe! Well, living here is totally going to be exciting, I think…
Hiei-kun has a pet goat, though I suppose he is more of a friend, and he's really big and likes to eat things - which I suppose goats like to do anyway. Nariko-chan likes him to, because she sneaks him snacks and treats all the time even though Hiei tells her not to. I dont think she can help it, because feeding the goat is fun and he really appreciates it! Hehe…
I tried to sneak him some food as well, but I was warned that he might get attached to me. That was okay! I gave him a treat and cuddled him for a bit. It was very nice, even though he smells funny… sort of like Hiei. Hehe!
I had a list of things I wanted to do while I was in Kumogakure, and I did them all!
1.) Go shopping!
I went shopping with Hiro-kun! We had a good time and I bought a lot of stuff. I didn't think shopping with him would be so much fun, but he also bought some things for me, so that was really nice of him. Hehe…
2.) Visit the artificial hotsprings!
I went several times, even to a party! It was a fun time going there. It is a lot like the hotsprings in Konoha, but different at the same time. Its warm, clean, and you get to meet a lot of interesting people.
3.) Go to Raiun Falls!
I really wanted to go see the big waterfall. It's a hundred feet tall, and even more interesting is the big metal wall that's next to it! I was really excited to see it, but when I went there, I ran into some girl from Kumogakure and she was having a really bad day - but I think I managed to cheer her up a bit. Hehe! We had a nice time.
4.) Learn something new!
I did! I know that everyone knows I know pretty much everything already but I did learn something. I went to the training center with Yotsuki Hiei and he showed me some nifty taijutsu that used lightning element stuff and was really powerful. Maybe I will have to learn something like that later! Hehe!
I guess I never figured that living in Amegakure again would be so different than living in Konoha. But then I suppose, why would it be? Back in Konoha, the weather was almost always nice, warm, and sunny, but here in Amegakure it seems to be a hit or miss with the rain. It’s awful! Sort of, at least if you don’t like rain. I suppose that rain doesn’t bother me as much as it bothers some other people, but it can get kind of depressing when it rains for like a week.
It’s always fun to see some person from another village come here to visit or whatever it is they want to do, because it seems like they aren’t actually expecting the rain to be serious. Most of them complain, but there’s always a few stubborn ones that don’t, or those that have been through before. However, almost all of them are completely unprepared.
It’s muddy… why would you expect it not to be when it has been raining for days. They come in their sandals and boots, but those are no good for walking in this sort of weather. You need some geta or other raised stuff that can grip the ground beneath the mud and keep your feet dry! You need a big hat and a heavy, water-proofish cloak to keep the water off of you when it is raining and to keep you warm in the wind! But… most just don’t know that stuff, but we do! Hehe!
So, I was back home for a while. It’s not something I do often since I love to wander around and go see all my friends, but my parents demanded I stay around for a while. At first, I guess I did not understand, but apparently they were feeling deprived of their Miyo-time, so they wanted me to stay and spend some time with them. Well, how could I refuse my wonderful parents? Hehe!
We had a nice night. Mom made some really yummy food and we all sat down and ate together for the first time in quite a while, and we even played some games. Dad totally won – he is way too good at those things….
After we were done, we talked for a while and sat around and stuff. It was a pleasant time, and then they told me they loved me and we went to sleep! I woke up in the morning and they were both already gone, off to work and do whatever it is they do! I kind of see where I get my inability to stay at home!
I like to travel, that’s not really a secret. I think all my friends know it – and that’s maybe because if I didn’t travel then they would never see me and I’d never get to see them! That would be most disastrous, I think! So, I rarely spend time at home, and spend most of my free time travelling to places like Kumogakure or back to my old home in Konohagakure – I still even have my treefort there… hehe…
Traveling isn’t always fun though. Sure, getting to places is the good part, but the in-between… the walking, the camping, the bad food and all that stuff is not very fun. I suppose there are people who like it, but if I could, I’d just skip over it and get to my destination right away so I could hang out with my friends and eat yummy food and stuff! Maybe I’ll have to try learning how to teleport…
Thinking back, I have to say that my eleventh birthday was one of the greatest days of my life. On that day, I received a gift I will probably hold onto forever and that is my beloved and treasured sword, Benisakura. It was a gift from my mother who had been teaching me how to use a sword, and up until then, I had only had the bokken for training, but with a real sword in my hands, I felt that much closer to my mom.
The sword is beautiful, and I knew right away that I would name it Benisakura, the crimson sakura because it’s scabbard and handle wrap were all bright red, one of my favorite colors! When I first drew the blade, I was surprised to find that it was not like the other swords, or even like my mother’s which was a beautiful silver color, but a pure black. The sword was sharpened so well that my mother told me it could cut anything I wanted to. Obviously, I wanted to test that theory and was about to slice a rock in half when she told me that I should be careful with it and stopped me.
I take good care of Benisakura, and she takes good care of me. I have plans for her, to make her stronger and stronger, until some day she becomes the greatest sword ever made!
I love my parents, I really do. They are a super cute couple! I hope that someday, when I get older and grow up like them that I will find some cute boy who will treat me as nicely as Dad treats Mom! Last week, for Mom’s birthday, Dad got her a big bouquet of flowers! It was the cutest thing ever! I ended up taking them and putting them in my room though. I don’t think Mom minded too much, I think she was kind of happy, so was Dad.
I think my Mom felt like she needed to get Dad something too! So, they went out to eat later that night, which was when I snuck off with the flowers, and when they came back from their super-cute date at what I can only imagine was a super fancy restaurant they were laughing and stumbling all over and making out and stuff, which is kind of awkward to see, but oh well! They ended up going to sleep right away so I stayed up and guarded the house since that’s what I do! Apparently I’m as good as a watch dog. Mhmmmm!
Last night was girl’s night with my mom. We got to do all sorts of fun things, like sit at home and eat sweet things, which we never do any other time. I don’t even really like sweets, but on these particular nights I do. Then we went out to an onsen! It was so nice, I’m pretty sure that I sat in there for like… two hours. I’m pretty sure I got a fever from it too… So after we were done we lounged around and had seafood which is totally my favorite!
Then we went home again and sat around the house playing games after we kicked Dad out. He’s not allowed in on girl’s nights, ‘cuz, well, he’s not a girl. We don’t allow non-girls into girl’s night. It’s the rule. So, we played fun games and then after we were done we had to let Dad back in so he could eat. He doesn’t usually seem to mind that we do things like this every once in a while. He sometimes is the one to suggest it. Mom says it’s just so he can have an excuse to go out with his friends.
So, today I had intended to go to the hotsprings and relax on my day off, and what do you know, I run into my bestest buddy Midori-chan! She was just slipping into the water when I arrived, and so I followed her in. She was as surprised to see me as I was to see her, and immediately I set out embarrassing myself thoroughly by standing and shouting all over the place. I’m not really sure why I did it when I look back on it, but I think it was to make Midori more comfortable.
She had said she was self-conscious, for whatever reason. She didn’t want people to see her, even though she didn’t mind if it was me. Didn’t understand. She’s totally cute! Guys would die to have been in my place! Hehe! Well, after that I settled down and we had a little conversation about our training and stuff, which was really nice and relaxing. However, I was unable to hold myself back in attempting to get her some confidence, so I maybe… teased her a little too much and threw her towel far away and stuff like that…. Was a bit ruuude on my part but she needs some help. I love her and all, but she can’t rely on anger alone!
After our little fiasco, though, she did invite me over for dinner, so I am super excited!
The other day I ran into this really nice guy. He was sitting on the bridge and just… like… watching people. So, at first I thought he was a total creeper, so when I got closer to him I was really surprised to see that he was actually drawing people in sketches!
So, I said ‘hi’ and we talked a bit and then he offered to sketch me. I was pretty excited since I wanted to see what he could do, so I got into a really cute pose – or what I figured was a cute pose – and then he sketched me. He was pretty quick, and it was a basic sketch, but I totally looked cute! I was pretty happy. So, I put it up on the wall in my room. Not like my room doesn’t need some decorating anyway.
But I met him again! By the lake and after he was done with like… fighting Satomi-san, the weird lovey-dovey buddy of Hideaki-kun’s, he sketched me again. It took a little longer, but it was much more detailed and I totally looked cute again. It’s also on my wall. He said he really liked drawing me and that I had a nice figure. I don’t know if that’s really true or not, but… perhaps my wall will be filled with sketches of me someday!
So, one day me and my bestest buddy Midori were walking around Konoha, and when we were at the bridge, some dorks decided to impede on our path! Well, that was fine, and we were getting ready to just go past them, when they picked on Midori and pushed her down! I could not stand for that, and I’m pretty sure I knocked the one boy out. Totally cleaned his clock!
Well, I don’t think the other idiots really expected us to put up a fight, but we certainly clobbered them… well, I did. Midori just lit them on fire, so we decided it was a good idea to flee the scene! And we did!
Graduation is coming up. I’m… excited. It’s going to be only like… my fifteenth time going through them. I feel like I will probably graduate, but I am worried about Midori! She is so…. Anxious all the time and panics a lot! I wish I could do something for her, but… I have faith in her abilities if she can keep it together. We… we shall see. Cross our fingers and stuff!
The other day, I met Midori-san at the fishing pond near the lake… it was… nice, I suppose, to see her at that time. She was busy training, and I had tried to sneak up on her and give her a little fright, but that didn't go so well, since she fell on her back and saw me coming. At the time, she seemed in good spirits, but after that, she attempted to get me to do tree walking, which I couldn't do.
I'm not sure what… compelled her to do so, but she would not relent until I had tried it. She had claimed that some jounin were teaching her the techniques, and that she was going on missions with other shinobi, so I assume she has found other friends… and thinking back on it, she seemed a lot different. She was more confident, more… I don't know… dominant? She… didn't seem like Midori.
When she told me my attempts were hopeless, and that it might not even be possible for me to catch up to her, I knew something had happened. She had changed… she was no longer Midori-chan… she was… someone else. Someone cold. Someone mean… I'm not even sure… but I don't think she is my friend anymore…
Like six months ago or something, maybe longer, maybe not, I have no idea anymore… my parents decided that I did not have enough patience or discipline. Because of that conclusion, they ended up packing all my things up, including me, and then shipped me off to stay with some monks! How awful! It was even worse when I arrived, because it was soooo boring. There was nothing to do, and even my living accommodations were rather boring and… uncomfortable.
I was lucky to have a bed that wasn’t actually made out of stone. I was just a guest, so I got at least that small comfort. From what I could tell the poor monks actually slept right on the floor. Or something like that… don’t know why. Well, small consolation prize – my room at least had a nice view!
So far they've treated me really nice. It's like having a whole lot of grandpas doting over me all the time. At least until they start hitting me with things when I get out of line, or scolding me for being impatient. They definitely have their minds set on whipping me into shape. Patience and discipline… they think I could have it!
So, to try and get me to be a better behaved girl for my parents or whoever I was supposed to behave for, the monks started me on a tai chi regimen. At first I was a little bit skeptical of what it was supposed to be or supposed to do for me, but after like six hours of nothing but tai chi the monks had to practically drag me in for dinner.
Its generally rice with a little bit of meat, generally chicken or some other sort of bird. It's… good enough, but I certainly wouldn't want to live my entire life eating nothing but rice dishes. I like variety!
The uhm… bathing accommodations are less than what I expected. I didn't really plan on bathing in a river. But… its what the monks do. It's cold and the fish bite me from time to time, but its better than being nasty all the time!
Books… so…many…books!
They actually expected me to read! Well, unfortunately, I fell for it. I read a few of their books and finally got to the point where even I started to enjoy reading. Some of the books were better than others, and Im pretty sure they had some dirty ones stashed away in there. Monks! Hehe….
After all this time they tell me it is time to go home.
I admit, Im a little confused about what home is anymore. Konoha? Maybe… or with the monks? It almost started to feel like I belonged here.
Maybe I didn't learn as much patience or discipline as they would have liked, but I certainly had a good time. We spent a great deal of time together and much of it was creating fond memories. I will never forget my time with those silly monks and their silly antics.
Sometimes I wonder if they were actually monks… certainly seemed strange enough…
I’ve been living in Amegakure for a few months, and it’s been really nice. Apparently, it is where I grew up, but I don’t remember any of that and it’s probably a good thing, it doesn’t seem like it would be the best place for a kid to grow up! It’s rainy, dark, and muddy more often than not, and while I like playing in the mud, my parents didn’t approve of it. However, now these days there are a lot of people fighting with each other. They all want to take over!
The other day I saw a fight between these two guys who were apparently from different factions, and they went at it like it was a deathmatch! I thought someone was maybe going to pull them apart, but they were just left to go at it. Well, hopefully people behave better with strangers and unfamiliar people around, it wouldn’t be good for the village to give other people a bad impression!
So, I was on my way to Kumogakure a while ago, and well… on my way I ran into this girl who was injured! I couldn’t let her just be on her own all bloody and beat up and stuff, so I stopped to help her! I insisted that she let me help, but she eventually let me after I convinced her. Not sure how I did it, maybe she was just tired of bleeding all over. Either way, I took her over to the lake and cleaned her up and bandaged her up.
Her wound was bad enough that we didn’t move her right away. That would have been silly, and a bad idea, I think. I didn’t want her to rip her wound back open again or anything, so I set up a little camp and we caught some fish. We ate the yummy fish, and then we talked for a little while before I convinced her to stay!
We stayed there for a while, but then she had to leave. I suppose that even though we were having a nice time camping it had to end someday. But, at least I have a new friend now, right?! Right!

I was in the markets the other day, just walking around, when I came across the old man with a pretty awesome beard just sitting on a bucket with a bunch of other buckets and other things around him. He was using them as drums, and it was s cool! I had drummed on things before, but there was just… something about the way he did it. It was magical!
I sat and listened to him, and I wasnt the only one. He played a bunch of different songs until he laughed and told us he was out of songs, but we didn't let him leave! He agreed and started again. By the time he had finished playing, it was nighttime, and none of us had left! The crowd had only gotten bigger, and then we noticed that he was gone… and so was our money! Aggghh!
The other day I met the leader of Tenshi, the martial-y faction of Amegakure. It was… odd. I guess I didn’t so much meet him as I ran in front of him, tripped, and then nearly caused him to trip as well. That would have been soooo embarrassing! However, he helped me up and brushed me off before sending me on my way. I was really surprised at how nice he was, even though he didn’t say a word. I had always heard that Aomine-sama was really quiet, but now I have seen it for myself!
I sort of wished I could have seen his face. He wears a really big hat that makes it hard to see, and even if I could have seen his face beneath it he was wearing a scarf, too! In this heat! Unbelievable! Well, I guess some people are just shy – maybe Aomine-sama is shy too? Wouldn’t that be neat! Maybe he blushed when he helped me up! Cuuuute!
Yesterday, I went out to the lake to swim and stuff and wear my new bathing suit – which was really comfortable! The weather was nice and the lake was really warm and refreshing. However, I suppose I never expected to run into Hiei there. I had most of the lake to myself, which surprised me. There weren’t many other people but then he shows up with the intent of training and all that fun stuff.
So, I offered to train with him!
I think it turned out to be a really bad idea because he whooped me pretty good. I knew he was tough, but I couldn’t even touch him! And he just threw me around like it was nothing! It reminded me to being a student… hehe… Oh well! Once I gave up he invited me over to have dinner with him and Sachiko! I totally accepted. I would never pass up a chance to hang out with Sachiko!
