Reclaiming the lost[IO, Rv & Rei, MS Event]

A desolate village, that was the most accurate way to describe the once powerful Village of Heaven's Blossom. Some unknown entity had sent out undying monstrous shinobi to all of the prominent villages for simultaneous attacks. To the shinobi world, it had come to light to all, that two of the five great nations had been utterly annihilated. One became an unmarked grave for countless corpses: the other, became nothing at all. Some powerful person had simply wiped away every trace of the village of Galahad. Where once people knew the village to stand, not a single stone remained. It was a tragedy, one Rei knew all too well- especially after witnessing the destruction to her own village. It was better to have been completely annihilated though: Galahad's destruction left not a single trace of building or corpse. If one hadn't known where that village once stood, they never would have guessed that a village had been built there.

It was different for Heaven's Blossom though. Four explosions had happened in a timed manner, carefully controlled and positioned for maximum distance and damage. While the entire village had been killed and the buildings in ruins- most of the corpses had been destroyed as well. Looking high and low, far and wide, it would be almost impossible for a looter to find a corpse of worth. Specifically, that was referred to the Uchiha and their secrets. Sarah and Rei had gone through ordeals to slaughter nearby looters, bandits, thugs and thieves: if any secret of the Uchiha did remain to be taken, the thieve would pay with his life. Little did Rei know, that there was already someone within the ruins of the village and going about finding some corpses in a rather... smart manner. You see, the village was destroyed and just about everything around and associated with it. But there was a graveyard, like all villages had in one way, shape or form. The village explosion had robbed all life, but remnants of the graveyard remained. Once one realized this, it was only a matter of time before someone managed to exhume a valuable corpse by grave robbery.

Heaven's Blossom had been destroyed. Some might question as to why its inhabitants hadn't properly defended their homeland. Some would accuse the survivors that they didn't care about their village: that wasn't the case. The survivors had simply been away from the village at the time, had no way of knowing of the attack and of course, were busy themselves defending another allied village they were currently in. If one would accuse them of not caring for their village, given the situation and circumstances, they'd be a damned fool. There had in fact, been two Uchiha at Heaven's Blossom at the time- who had somehow miraculously survived the explosion. Apparently there had been bad blood between the two and their teamwork was terrible, for the one who caused the explosion, hadn't even needed to fight back. A blood match had taken up between those two Uchiha, one died and the other left without a care. Of course Rei didn't know these things, but god did- and surely he was shaking his head that his own creations, family ties or not, couldn't unite for a greater cause as to avenge their fallen friends, family and comrades.

While some had gone about it all wrong and focused on their egos, three individuals at least had taken it upon themselves to do the right thing. Two out of three of those individuals were by no means, polite or friendly people. They would be considered the worst of the worst, murderers and psychopaths. Sadists and careless killers, but that didn't mean they couldn't feel- albeit one of those two had a hard time feeling emotions. They both had friends, family, comrades and precious memories of the village and its inhabitants. Losing all of that in a single night, was enough to cripple most people. Where once they had been members of a mighty clan, feared and respected as one of the five great nations: now they were vagabonds, no home and no village to rest their weariness in. With their land and village destroyed, it was only a matter of time until someone else saw it as an opportunity to benefit from. Whether it was another village and its mighty pompous rulers, or highway bandits, it made no difference. There were yet survivors of the proud Uchiha clan and they would exact their revenge in whatever way, shape or form they deemed fit.

The day this happened upon, was a rainy and dreary day. Dark and gloomy, full of the despair and death that filled the air. Where once laughter and honest work had filled the air, now only the eerie silence of their morbid absence, echoed painfully in the ears of Rei Uchiha as the heavy storm and rain drowned out those memories. She was soaked head to toe, Rei had been patrolling the ruins of the village all day. That was when the storm had broken loose and poured down the rain as though it were the blood of the fallen upon the land. Since her arrival back in her homeland, she had met two of the survivors, but she knew of the third. Jianyu, Sarah and Riv. Among those, Sarah and Riv, Rei had seen with her own eyes upon the lands after the destruction. Jianyu had been with Rei in Carpathia at the time, so she knew without a doubt that he was alive and somewhere close by. The two of them had promised to go to Heaven's Blossom together after all. Apparently, Rei had arrived before Jianyu. She had met Riv and Sarah since her arrival: though it was unknown where Sarah was currently, Rei knew where Riv was.

Riv had been a younger skilled D Rank shinobi in Heaven's Blossom and a fellow clansmen of the Uchiha. Rei had met her when she herself had been lamenting the loss of the village: such a compelling and serious event had altered their perception of how they viewed the world. Little did they know, that event had began a downward spiral of inner and outer conflict and turmoil that would soon awaken the darkness festering within their souls. If there was indeed a god and he was watching from above: some would say he was a benevolent being. Others would say he was a vain creature who only enjoyed the travesties of his entertaining creatures. Rei believed neither. To her, a god was simply a goal. A goal to surpass. She cared nothing for riches, glory or infamy: she only cared for the thrill of battle- and who better to give her a proper thrill, than someone considered omnipotent and omniscient? Call her crazy, for that she was- but Rei could not be bothered by such things as mortal will, tapped potential and impossibilities. There simply was and wasn't. There was the will and there was the way- and there was that which was impossible, yet still held a will. Only a coward would shy away from something that seemed impossible... that was how legends were born after all. Cowards refusing to face something they feared- then one fool would challenge that very concept of impossibility and prove victorious.

Though the Uchiha were small in number now, nearly extinct with only one male to sire the newer generation- they would not bow their heads to anyone. Nor would they allow themselves to fall by the hands of the mighty and pompous, nor the foolery of thieves and bandits in droves and hordes. Riv, you awake? Get up, someone has disturbed the peace of our sleeping clansmen. Rei said suddenly over the loud rain and crashing thunder as she bent low to stood under a low rising doorway to a house which had sunken in the ground. Out of all the buildings, this one was one of the few which still possessed living accommodations and protection from the elements. That was to say, two of the rooms at least: the other half of the house was gone from the explosion. Rei and Riv had found each other and decided to band together for now until their village and clansmen were properly taken care of. Rei used one room for her quarters while Riv used the other.

The "disturbance" Rei had spoken of, was that very thing that Rei had thought of only recently and decided to check upon. The graves of their recently deceased. From what remains had been left, the survivors had buried at the graveyard. Rei often patrolled the graveyard to ensure there was no grave robbery. Yet today, of all days, during the heavy storm and rain- someone had dug up two of the graves. Not just any grave either: one of the graves belonged to Rei's father Yamamoto. Although Rei didn't know Riv's family too well, they were all related and everyone knew of each other in the village- so Rei knew and understood the implications of the second grave robbery as well. Not only had the robber dug up Rei's father, but one of Riv's family members as well. Call it coincidence, divine entertainment or whimsical circumstances, but the two present and protecting the ruined village, were the two which had their families disturbed, dug up and stolen.

Rei was calm, at least on the outside. She always did her best to depict a clam head and callous cold logic- only recently had she been experiencing and struggling with her emotions. Inward, she found that she suffered from her blood boiling. She was enraged with indignation and did not yet understand the feeling. While Riv was to prepare, Rei prepared herself. Not only did she mentally go over the details she had found at the scene of the crime, but she also prepared herself physically. Before, while patrolling, it had been hot, so Rei had worn nothing but a cloak. In hindsight, that was a mistake because now that someone had stolen their clan secrets and directly important corpses to her and Riv: Rei had to take the time and prepare her clothe and weaponry to confront the scumbag robber.

Rei said robber, because it was just one grave robber who had taken the corpses. The footprints in the fresh mud indicated such: though escaping with two corpses on foot would prove difficult for the perpetrator. Rei and Riv would easily catch up to this thief once they were adequately prepared. We'll be going after the thief who stole the corpses shortly. was all Rei said, as she yelled from her room to inform the young Uchiha girl of their plan. It was better for the time being that Riv knew nothing about her family member being stolen. It would only destabilize her emotions and possibly make things more difficult.

Rei dropped her soaking wet cloak to the floor, a single lantern lighting the dark room. Her room had no windows and only a door that led to Riv's room which lead to the outside. A couple sparse lamps had been found and used to light their rooms and provide them with some relief from the darkness. Naked Rei stood before her bed, all her clothes and weapons laid out before her neatly on the bed as she began to pick each piece of in succession and put it on. First, her black silky panties and then her skin tight black leather pants with three metal buckles which criss-crossed loosely over her luscious hips in a form of fashion. Then she strapped on her 44DD bra, also black and silky: very comfortable and effectively supported her heavy boobs. With that, she threw on her black leather jacket and only zipped it up halfway. She wore no shirt and her cleavage could be seen quite clearly even from fifteen feet away. Black sockets under black leather steel toed boots covered her feet. With her clothes on, she slipped on Erebus, her arms-length silk glove weapons easily mistaken as simple harmless gloves for a fashion statement.

With her clothing on, she pulled her hair into a tight bun since it was raining. A red ribbon adorned her bun to keep it tied tight and her hair out of her face. She reached down on the bed and pulled up the long slivered needle sword Nuibari. It was a prize she had gotten and would soon prove useful in a poetic justice kind of way. Finally, all ready, Rei barged into Riv's room without concern for the girl's privacy and laid serious eyes on the younger girl. It's time to go. The thief has escaped through the woods on the southern side of the forest. His tracks can be seen in the mud leading that direction, so be on your guard and look carefully. He cannot be allowed to escape with our clan secrets. she said to the girl, her eyes crimson with the fully matured sharingan as she looked at Riv and expected the girl to be ready to move out. Needless to say, this perpetrator and thief would die this day.

Whenever Riv was ready, the two would leave the makeshift home. Once outside, Rei would activate her signature move LRA. The lightning would takeover her body and then turn an unnatural black form of lightning. With each step she took in the direction of the villain, she activated Hachimon. Gate one, adding 50% to her strength(345), Gate two, adding 30% to her strength(448.5) and replenishing chakra from LRA. Gate three, adding 60% to her speed(640) and turning her skin red. Gate four, adding 80% strength(807) and 70% speed(1,088). Gate five, adding 86% strength(1,501.5) and speed(2,023.6). Gate six, adding 90% to strength(2,852) and speed(3,844). Finally, stopping the Gates after Gate seven, adding 95% to strength(5,563) and speed(7,497). A massive surge of power erupted from Rei as she took these steps, her skin turning red, black steam(due to the green sweat steam mixing with her black lightning armor and evaporating off her body to give off a black steamy color). And lastly, the rain around her immediate area began to swirl with her surge of power, creating a vortex of rainy water that continually built up around Rei who was standing close to Riv.

She would try to grab Riv, who likely wouldn't try to shy away from Rei. Riv had been nearly killed once by Rei's LRA Elbow and since then made a full recovery. During that recovery time however, Rei had ensured to assert herself over the young Uchiha girl like an affectionate older sister. If Riv didn't pull away or resist, Rei would grab Riv and pull her close to her body, nearly suffocating the young girl in her large open bosom'd jacket. Rei focused her black lightning armor far enough away to have the girl safely within Rei's reach without being affected by the lightning. The lightning aura armor was positioned a foot or so away from Rei's body, meaning that Riv had to stay glued to Rei to avoid being damaged. This was a means of both protecting Riv as much as helping her keep up with Rei's speed. For now until they found their target, Riv could remain glued to Rei's sexy body and safe inside the LRA while Rei did all the work.

With this hopefully accomplished without too much complaining from the younger Uchiha girl, Rei would speak before taking off. I will be moving very fast, so hold on tight and use your sharingan to look behind us and ensure Ive not missed anyone, nor let anyone sneak up behind us. she instructed, more so explaining the plan than ordering Riv around. With her plan explained, Rei took off with a sudden dash of her foot- in one instant she was there, and the next, she was gone with two consecutive booms of breaking the sound barrier as she took off. The wind and rain in the area was disturbed and sent shock waves outward as Rei carried Riv and ran in the direction of the villain, her sharingan eyes taking in every detail as she passed in her attempt to find the soon-to-be dead grave robber. You died foolishly for my mistakes father... at least allow me to atone by placing you back to rest. she told herself, unknowingly trying to console that emotional part of her mind that she didn't fully understand.

With Rei's incredible and unmatched speed, coupled with LRA's protective shield aura and her sharingan: Rei was able to cover much ground- in terms of movement and monitoring. Whatever falling rain, tree branches, rocks or bushes were in her way, she boulder-charged through them with incredible power. The robber hadn't gotten too far, his footsteps in the soft grassy mud of the forest would be his downfall as Rei covered the distance in mere seconds. Finally, she found the man- carrying the two corpses, one under each arm as he made his way away from the desolate village- likely thinking himself safe and entertaining his thoughts with ways to use and abuse the Uchiha's secrets. His pompous smug attitude and seemingly careless abandon for his own life would be his downfall. Her black lightning had enhanced her Lightning Release Armor's power by an additional 300, meaning instead of the normal 200 first post, her armor has an endurance of 500 and increases by another 100 in the next post(totaling to 600). Little did the man know, he would be dying quite soon, for Rei held many nasty surprises.

As Rei closed in the distance, she felt something in her heart. She knew of the sadness and pain: she was beginning to understand the rage and indignation of having her father dug up and stolen- but there was more. Something felt good within her. Little did she know, it was a feeling of peace. She possessed unparalleled power, obtained through her hard works and the sacrifice of her parents so that she could continue living on. The fact that she could no wuse this power to vindicate her eternally sleeping father, gave Rei hope that things would one day repair themselves and the uchiha would be great again. As one of the few surviving females of the clan, she understood her duty to repopulate the shinobi world with her cursed children. There was only one man worthy of breeding such a violent and sexy woman: she would use this opportunity to her advantage to get one over on Jianyu and force him to accept responsibility as the new father of their clan. But that would come later, for now- there was someone to murder and how Rei loved to murder.

Jutsu:

The two closed in on the mysterious grave robber from behind, catching up to his progress in mere seconds. With all the aforementioned jutsu and stats, Rei overwhelmed the foe even before the man had been able to perceive what was happening. One clean chop from Rei's hand, dropped the man to the ground as his head dislocated from his shoulders and rolled down a little hill twenty feet distance. The two corpses the man had been carrying, dropped with the man but had not been harmed by Rei's attack. The two corpses had been carried under the man's arms, so when he had been decapitated and fell, the corpses fell forward with him and face down. Rei already knew the identities of the corpses, but she would allow Riv to find out for herself. Rei released Riv from her bodily hold and stepped away from the girl, her black LRA purposefully did not affect the girl. Riv needed the moment to see the bodies for herself and take in the situation.

Still, Rei was on guard in case the beheaded man might try to stand. She had dealt with undead monstrous shinobi only recently: the whole ordeal had given her a new perspective and reverence for the deceased. Rei walked ahead of Riv and grabbed the beheaded perpetrator's corpse and dragged it out from under the two facedown corpses and addressed Riv as she physically took action. Reclaim the bodies Riv. Rei instructed, her her black lightning covered hand would sink into the man's chest and rip out his heart and hold it lustfully in her hand and admire it. By now her LRA had taken full effect, yet she continued to keep the chakra flow up. What if this man was not operating alone? Possibly he had been delivering the corpses to an employer or someone. There were too many unknown variables for Rei to feel secure, despite beheaded and ripping out the man's heart.We will head back to the village and bury the bodies soon. she said to Riv, just as the girl would flip the corpses over.

Jutsu:

Rei watched Riv as the young girl trudged through the rain towards the two facedown corpses in the mud. Rei stood adjacent to Riv's position, to the left. The older woman was kneeling in the mud, hovering over the headless corpses while her hand had ripped a hole in the corpse' chest and drawn out its heart. While Riv took action to turn over the corpses, Rei used that opportunity to do her dark deed. When Riv was most drawn to the corpses and less aware of Rei, the older woman cut a slice into her own body with her lightning release armor. She wasn't...erh.. she may have been insane, but there was perfectly good reason for this. The cut was precise and positioned where Rei had intended, her arm behind her back with the heart and placing the dead man's heart into the middle of her lower back. Black threads erupted from the hole in her body that the heart had been placed and immediately began to stitch up the hole as Rei's hand withdrew from inside herself and her chakra surged. Once the wound was stitched up, a white effigy mask appeared over the wound. Rei stood up, covering the mask up once more with her black leather jacket and walking over to where Riv was motionless. Rei broke off a finger from the corpse and stowed it in a pocket for now, it might prove useful later.

She could tell that the girl was lost in her thoughts: as someone who struggled with emotions herself, Rei knew the look on someone's face when their emotions had fully gone blank. Riv wouldn't be held down for long however: as Rei stood up and began to walk towards the girl, Riv stood up with both corpses under her arms and cradled them carefully. Let's head back, Riv. Rei said in a monotone voice as her own eyes gazed down to the cold lifeless face of her father Yamamoto. Luckily, her statement had been short. Her voice choked up after seeing her father's face and had she said anything longer, she likely wouldn't have been able to finish saying it.

Normally, Rei would have taken and carried her father. But she had already exceeded the limits her her technique. The vortex of water no longer swirled around the area, the black steam had disappeared and her skin had returned back to normal. Her body had reached its limits of the 7th Gate and now she was suffering the backlash effects from it. Every fiber in her body screamed, especially the muscles in her feet. Just walking was painful, but Rei showed no visible sign of pain or concern. She needed to be strong, stronger than anyone else. She needed to be viewed as someone unbeatable, someone who could shoulder all of the surviving Uchiha's hopes and dreams. Riv was a strong young girl and could surely carry the two bodies back to the graveyard. Rei walked ahead, her lightning release armor still active as a safe-counter. The two would travel in silence for some time until they reached the graveyard once again.

Place them back in their graves and say your goodbyes to your family Riv. Rei said, fully intending to do the same. She would wait for Riv to place Yamamoto back in his grave and then she would kneel despite the bodily pain and look down at her father's peaceful face. I've returned the favor father... You and mother spared my life by sacrificing yourself for my deeds. I grew strong, strong enough to defend a whole village and rescue you from being used after your death. she said, telling her father about all of her deeds since their departure. The good, the bad and the grey areas as well.

The rain had already stopped a while ago, the two girls had walked back with no rain. Yet now that they were here at the graveyard with their family and saying their goodbyes, the rain seemed to sense the dam of emotions within their hearts. Rei knew the feeling in her heart, a deep undeniable sadness even with her broken mind.As she looked down upon her father, sleeping in his grave, she began to cry. Never had she cried before, but she had seen many people cry. Children and parents in the village, bandits who begged for their lives, all these things Rei knew and understood what crying was. This crying was different though, for the tears Rei shed, were crimson. They were tears of blood that she shed upon her father's face. Her sharingan which had stayed active this whole time, began to feel different. It felt heavier and more alive. She looked down at a puddle of rainy water and see her own eyes: their crimson tomoe began to swirl in circles and slowly close in on the center and then connected. Once connected, the three tomoe were no more. Instead, now they were three curved lines which crisscrossed and intersected at the middle and spanned outwards to the edge of her sharingan pupils.

She had just unlocked something amazing, something few within her clan managed: something considered taboo and even a secret among the clan members. Rei had little doubt Riv wouldn't be influence the same way. The young girl possessed the mature sharingan and was going through a similar mental situation with her own exhumed family. Rei would keep her Mangekyou Sharingan active and wait for Riv to finish. Goodbye father. I will make sure no one can ever bother any of you again. she promised and the stood up when Riv was finished and ready to leave. It looks like we have obtained the inheritance of our families. Their will, desires and dreams passed on to us. We can talk more about it later, but know that what you have just awakened is called the Mangekyou sharingan. Do not use it unwisely or else you will go blind. Now, begone from here Riv. there's something I must do to prevent anyone from ever bothering our sleeping clansmen ever again.

Rei would wait for Riv to leave and go back to their makeshift home. Once far enough away, Rei would focus on the task at hand. With her Lightning Release Armor still active and black from her black lightning, Rei released a pent up amount of chakra suddenly. The surge of lightning expanded outwards, black in color and disintegrating everything around Rei who was at the epicenter of the explosion. Rei stood near the center of what remained of the graveyard and as her explosion expanded fifty meters, the destructive 800 power completely obliterated everything that remained of the graveyard. When the explosion was finished, only Rei remained at the center, standing on a small little mound of dirt- everything around her bad been utterly annihilated: not even a trace of any corpse remained. The only way to prevent anyone from abusing the uchiha's power, was to prevent them from obtaining it: it was best that their family's be completely removed from the prime material realm, than to be used and abused by power hungry fools. The grave robber who had died, was evidence enough of that proof. With the deed done and after she ensured not a single trace of dna remained, she followed after Riv.
