Yasuke attention would suddenly be adverted as he caught a pair of shinobi intensely engaged in a taijutsu battle. Yasuke would sit up and turn his body so he could get a better angle of the fight since taijutsu was one of Yasuke's specialties this intrigued him. "This is my type of fight, some real action for once", Yasuke thought to himself as he would see a flicker coming from his right as his eyes rotated quickly he would see 3 shuriken closing in on him. Still sitting on the branch with the shuriken a few meters out no time to grab his kunai and defend himself he simply had to maneuver out of the situation. Yasuke would swiftly arch his back wrapping around the branch as the 3 shuriken would crash and pierce the wooden branch mere seconds after, Yasuke would contort his body flipping around and twisting all the while generating chakra to his feet which would catch the surface of the tree as soon as he came out of the flip.

Yasuke would quickly adjust his vision while running down the tree following the reverse trajectory of the shuriken that had been thrown at him he would lock eyes with a girl who looked to be around his age then immediately refocusing on a branch that had seeming fell from the same spot in which the young kunoichi stood. She had big eyes and long locks of hair that flowed as the ocean itself Yasuke was caught in a trance for a second, this young kunoichi was sure a beauty but Yasuke couldn't get caught in such thoughts at the moment he was in battle of course. Yasuke would leap off the tree 5 meters before the base and landed on the ground as he would close in one the young kunoichi he would notice the sharingan is here eyes, "How interesting, Yasuke thought as he had read a bit about the sharingan and heard tales of it from his father but nothing compared to getting to seeing it first hand like most kekkei genkai including Yasuke's getting to experience these things in battle was always a grateful experience.

Now about 7 meters from the tree in which the kunoichi would be perched on a branch Yasuke would stop and yell "What the hell is wrong with you I was studying, that's not how you make friends but if you want to play, the pleasure is mine", Yasuke then dug his left hand into his pouch and with the sleight of hand emerged with 3 shuriken of his own which he would toss towards the girl one chest high, one about a foot above her head, and one a foot below here feet just in case she would try to jump up or jump down from the branch she was on to avoid the attack. Yasuke would test out the accuracy of her sharingan carefully watching the kunoichi to see how she would counter, Yasuke would begin to gather chakra for his next move as well.

Yasuke watched the teenage girl closely, studying her movements carefully as she would react to his attack by deflecting the shuriken in one fluid motion she unsheathed her sword. Yasuke would notice that the chakra he had drawn had been disrupted in some sort of fashion causing the clones he attempted to summon to not appear, this alerted Yasuke as he instinctively jumped back a few meters, noticing the girl raising her sword firing a wind projectile from the tip. Yasuke would be mid air as the wind bullet would explode  about a meter from where he recently stood , expanding a couple more meters creating an wind orb. Yasuke would have just dodge the attack as he jump backwards placed him about a meter away from the range in which the technique encompassed. Yasuke now had a dilemma on his hands, he quickly drew a kunai from his pouch with his left hand and jumped backed a few more meters using the wind and debris that it blew into the air to mask his movement.  

Yasuke began thinking deeply staying focused on the girl, he would begin to draw chakra attempting to once more create a clone but once more nothing happened. ”It seems that every time I draw chakra it get disrupted somehow, how is that possible she hasn’t touched me nor have any of her technique could this be her visual prowess...I did look directly into her eyes that’s it. Yasuke quickly formed the tiger handseal  successfully stopping his flow of chakra and starting it back with a greater flow of chakra utilizing the Kai technique he learned in the academy, it was clear to him he was in some sort of a genjutsu taking into account that the girl was at least genin and from her size and her movements she was in the upper class not to mention she boasted the sharingan which always gave one an advantage in battle, the techniques she utilized had to at least be on of C rank if not greater."Very well then, what is your name young Uchiha?, I am Yasuke Raiu of Kumogakure", Yasuke said as the dust cleared and the wind settled he would wait for the kunoichi’s next move.

Yasuke knew that she would have something up her sleeve, with in minutes of beginning the battle Yasuke could tell she was versatile in her attack methods as she used a mid-long range ninjutsu and genjutsu technique.

”I wonder if the techniques she uses is a way to handicap her speed and possibly taijutsu abilities”

Yasuke thought as he kept his eyes on his target, dust from her attack finally settling as he would notice her image shift, propelling with a burst of speed unlike Yasuke had seen from any genin around the battle grounds. Within a few seconds she was closing in with her blade drawn, without much time to react Yasuke would quickly raise his arm using his kunai to shield the blade now covered in fuuton chakra from making contact with his neck. The kunoichi would then pause, while maintaining a firm grip on her blade.

“My name is Aikiko Uchiha, and you will yield or die.”

She would say as she then immediately let out a loud whistle which seem to be followed by a continuous howling which would almost deafen Yasuke in a sense. Yasuke wouldn’t have anything up his sleeve as he would come to the realization that the kunoichi was surely above average compared to any other genin he had seen in combat. Yasuke wouldn’t chance it this time as he had much more important things to look forward to in his near future this would just be a moment of clarification for him that he absolutely needed to train harder and get stronger. Still deafen by the howling wind Yasuke would gauge his voice the best he could trying not to yell.

”I’ll humbly yield for now after all you are the one who attacked first, Akiko Uchiha”

Yasuke would say as he would press his kunai against her blade slowly lowering it to his side and away from his neck.

It would seem that Yasuke’s way of humbly submitting to the young girls request would catch her off guard. Yasuke immediately regained his hearing as the howling would stop instantaneously, obviously a wind technique or another genjutsu, Yasuke wasn’t sure but was grateful that she had dropped her guard as she bowed showing a great amount of respect. As her demeanor completely changed from something along the line of malevolent to nothing short of graceful, Yasuke would be frozen as he listened to the young girl speak perplexed on how her actual personality was vastly different than what she portrayed in battle. For that reason alone she had Yasuke’s respect as beautiful as the young girl was she knew how to carry herself and when to act something that all shinobi have different ways of showing.

“I'm sure had you surprised me your attack would have been just as terrifying Yasuke-kun. You say you're from the Raiu clan? Do you perhaps know the woman who called herself Mizuki Raiu? She was an emissary who came to my old village, she represents the Raikage. I wish to see her again and was wondering if you knew when she'd return to the Cloud Village. I hope to thank her for guiding me to this place.”

Yasuke was taken back a bit as he had just been informed by his father and given a task to seek out Mizuki, and now this young girl he had unexpectedly encountered had mentioned the same person. The plot thickened as Yasuke came to the conclusion that he had to find Mizuki now by any means necessary, she was obviously someone who showed great prowess not only on the battlefield but also with her comrades, someone that would make an ideal sensei or even just a reliable resource. At the beginning of the battle Yasuke would have took Aikiko for a completely different person now realizing she wasn’t from his village which would be a prime reason she would be on the offensive, with a deficit of friends, Yasuke would look to create a bond with her extending as much information as he could without compromising the confidentiality of his newly proposed mission.

”I’ve never actually met her in person, although I do know that she is away from the village, and has been for sometime”

Yasuke would reply as he noticed her eyes change color as her sharingan disappeared along with the change. He hoped he had provided Aikiko with enough information to satisfy her curiosity as she thanked him kindly for what he was able to tell her anyway. Aikiko would bow once more as Yasuke reach out his fist knowing she would return the gesture as he listened to her as she began to speak.

“I apologize for my sudden appearance and disappearance today, but I have many matters to attend to before the exams. I hope your training goes as well as mine has, the Cloud needs to show up strongly for them to show the world that we are to be feared. It is the will of the God in Yellow, Hastur.”

Yasuke nodded his head in agreement as he watched Aikiko as she would turn away and seemly disappear, she was indeed quite the caster when it came to using genjutsu, Yasuke had witnessed this for himself first hand and wouldn’t let his experience go to waste but instead use it to fuel his goal and dreams. Yasuke still had a ways to go but today he had gained a friend who seemed to have the same passion as him when it came to getting stronger although the same end goal there would be different fuels for each were Yasuke would be fueled by those he cared for and the goal to being strong enough to protect them, while Aikiko seemed interested in appealing to Hastur. Yasuke always heard stories of the raikage from his father but had never met him in person, this never bothered Yasuke as he wasn’t the type to seek approval from such a person only those he cared for. To complement that Yasuke wasn’t a huge fan of Hastur to begin with, starting with how willingly he used his ANBU squad as pawns more than personal body guards like previous kages. This angered Yasuke as he blamed his father’s obligation to his village on the raikage himself. The one thing him and Aikiko had in common was that they both wanted to make there village proud and Yasuke was going to do anything he could to make that happen as he began to think to himself.

”We have common goals not only with becoming stronger but also Mizuki seems to be a common person of interest for both of us, I’m certain I'll see you again UCHIHA AIKIKO, and then I'll show you how far I’ve come”

Although Yasuke felt he was shown respect he couldn’t get over the fact that he submitted, this was embarassing for Yasuke as this would be his first impression, he had to prove to Aikiko how strong he was.
