Welcome to Gaia! ::

rono smirked devilishly, "is that so? then don't worry, i got the thing to help speed that up, after all it worked on all the others he needed for his bodies, including me, his next host, so why won't it work on you two?" from his pocket, rono extracted two pills, one red, the other blue, he held the blue pill to kyo and the red one to nishiki.

((there's a matrix joke here somewhere xd ))

"one of the few good things produced by orochimaru's experiments," rono said, "these pills will allow you to use your kekei genkai, the only side effects are a bit of drowsiness and a feeling of weakness, it's completely painless, and the effects wear off after a good night's sleep" rono was confident and spoke with a big smirk on his face, but he still did an occasional 360 with the byakugan, "after you wake up your traits will be automatically activated, kyo you will notice the fact that you can read a person's movements very well, even if they give no hint of it. nishiki, you will see peoples' chakra flowing through their bodies"

"once you wake up, meet me back here, at this exact spot" rono said, "you'll meet another member then, till then goodnight" he leaned against the tree and waited for them to fall asleep, 'it happens to everyone who takes it' he thought 'these two won't be any different'

rono found the two in a deep slumber, "about time i found them..." he said, putting kyo on one shoulder, and carrying nishiki under his arm, he dashed back towards home...'home...not that great though' he thought

"time for training" rono said walking in, "if you want to be able to use your abilities right, you need to learn to control them" he had one eye byakugan, the other sharingon, he stared at them, "it won't be that hard, just stick to it"

"okay then" he said, his eyes turning back to normal, "just so you know, we are in an underground room that is connected to a series of tunnels, the sound nin have no idea these tunnels exist, not even orochimaru" rono paused to take a breath, 'the only one outside of the resistence who knows...is kabuto...and yet he hasn't said anything to orochimaru...why?' ron cleared his throat, "kyo, come with me, your training needs to be without distraction"

rono led kyo into a seperate room and closed the door, "watch my hand seals closely, they'll activate the sharingon for you," he said, "at least, until you get the hang of it" he preformed four seals, slowly, "it must be done faster than that, though"

((here goes my attempt to start!))

Courtney Zanuff was running thorugh the woods, a usual activity. She had yet again stolen some bread in order to have something to eat. She ran quickly, and managed to throw off most of her pursuers by tossing caltrops onto the ground and making them stop. Luckily, they weren't trained ninja as she wasn't either... She kept running, just in case and also to enjoy the pure ecstasy physical activity brought her. She ran faster, more and more carefree until... SLAM! She landed face first on the ground, having tripped under something... she looked at the strange object and started to dig around, wondering what it was.

After a while, Courtney stumbled upon something that seemed like a door under all of the dirt. She opened the hatch like door and looked down into a tunnel. Being adventurous, she figured she might as well go in as it would be a good place to hide and remember for the future. She threw a layer of dirt back on the door to hide it and then climbed into the tunnel.
