Suki sat momentarily atop a fairly low hanging tree branch. There was a bird on the branch above her, and she eyed it watchfully. While not really hungry at the moment, she had eaten birds before, and might decide to catch it and carry it with her if she could. A few stray sunbeams manages to make their way through the thick canopy above for a moment, giving the trees a still more grand appearance. This part of the forest was naturally very thick, which could give some people a hard time. But being a cat, navigating thick forests was an easy task. Her smaller size gave her an advantage in such terrain. That said, for a cat, she was quite imposing. She weighed a full 18 pounds, and was just over 2 feet long from her chest to her but. She was roughly the size of a medium sized dog. That said, she was clearly a cat. Her striking orange fur with black markings helped her blend into some terrain, although perhaps not too much so in a dense forest. However she stuck out no more than a human. Less perhaps considering anyone looking at her would probably mistake her for a wild cat of some kind.

Suki's amber eyes were still locked onto the bird above her while she waited for it to move to a more optimal position. If it did, she would instinctively pounce upon it. If it flew away, no real loss as she wasn't particularly hungry anyway. One might wonder exactly what she was doing in the forest, alone and outside the village. Truth was, She just liked to explore. And being a leaf ninja, she thought she should familiarize herself with the terrain. But she really didn't need an excuse to explore the forest. She was curious, and exploration came naturally to her. Asking why she wanted to explore was like asking a child why they want candy.

Suddenly, in a flurry of movement, the bird took flight. Suki leapt up onto the branch it was on, and gave chase instinctively, before bounding again attempting to snatch it from the air. Needless to say, she failed. But she did get a couple feathers. While in the air she twisted around, and landed on another branch. Her landing was nearly flawless, and she landed on her feet the way most people would expect a cat to. Having a nice tail to aid in balance was a goodly part of it. As she landed, her tail.flicked back and forth as he watched the bird fly off. "Dang...that was close." Despite being a cat, she could speak as flawlessly as any human. She spoke clearly, and was articulate, or so she prefered to think. That said, one would definitely not expect a perfectly human voice to come from a cat. Suki jumped onto a higher branch, and found a stray sunbeam to rest in. She laid down and flicked her tail idly while sunbathing.

The sun peeked through the canopy of the tree line above. Though it was bright outside, it was quite shady down on the forest floor, perfect for a calm day. The legends of Konoha's Dense Forest were riddled with danger as a plethora of terrifying creatures called it their home. Despite such risky tales it didn't stop a young long haired blonde man from camping out on the outskirts of the forest making it his current training ground. Choosing to travel the world as he trained he never stayed in one place long, it offer a wide variety of landscapes for him to hone his skills in. The harsh environments aiding in his training. Bunshichi Myugan was his name, and after meeting his brother what was roughly six years ago now, he began down his path looking to get stronger. Kaguza was his brother's name, and while Bunshichi knew they were brothers, Kaguza did not. The two shared a father, but were born and raised in different villages. Kaguza in Kiri, growing to a very strong shinobi of the Hidden Mist, even claiming the title of Captain of the Seven Swordsmen. Bunshichi however was born in Kumo, never knowing his father. Traveling to Kumo on a merchant trip, his father who had the Myugan blood, tended to show off. Those of the Myugan clan were deemed Kings of the tavern, alcohol had no effect on them. A legend went around amongst the less then sober community wherever one went, of out drinking a Myugan. On this trip his father flaunted his sobriety only to fall to taunting, eventually invoking his own clans ability to become drunk by choice. Through other events both the challenged and challenger would create a young child who would live without knowing his real father.

It was by chance that the two Myugan brothers met, one coming to the realization of their relationship, while the other was completely oblivious. Never the less, it was Kaguza who saw potential in the long haired blonde, deciding to train him on the spot. Four years of violent training left Bunshichi battered and bruised, but strong and determined to gain his own strength. After departing he refined his ability further and even developed his own style. Leaving his home he sought to test his strength, having never been a ninja there was no quarrel with him simply leaving the village of Kumo.

Bunshichi had decided on puppetry training today, particularly utilizing his quad style ball puppet named Kappa. Even though every action the ball puppet performed was controlled by it's master. He felt the need to give the metal ball creation a personality, it was almost like a dog or a cat. With the appearance of neither it didn't matter which one it was like. With the ball puppet following along side the two began dashing through the forest. The two making different paths in the same direction, attempting to improve his coordination with the puppet.

A glimpse of color caught Bunshichi's eye. Stopping on the first large branch in his path, he simply observed the creature. It was a cat. The placement of a cat seemed odd in this forest, though nothing so wild. It seemed like an opportunity to play with his puppet. He loved cats, not so much dogs for various reasons. Such free spirited creatures, though some cats seemed too important for others. Hiding himself, he watched from a distance as he sent his shiny ball puppet, Kappa, down to see the cat.

Jumping from the tree towards the cat, the ball puppet landed rather softly on all four legs. It was a strange creation, almost like a turtle that became a perfect sphere. Looking at the cat, it tilted what was it's head as it slowly approached the cat as it sunbathed. Trying to make it's presence passive, he didn't want to frighten the animal, merely to play with it.

Suki had always enjoyed forests. Being a cat, She naturally had a love of high places. This was most true when said high place was naturally a good vantage point. Laying on a high tree branch over a clearing was good, although she wasn't near a clearing in this case, but other places, such as atop the hokage building, were better. From such places she could see far and wide, and watch things easily. Trees naturally fit Her like of high places, and so She often found herself resting in a tree, often with a book. Reading was another one of her passions. And in general, for her, anything was improved if you added reading to the situation. Laying in a tree was good, but reading a good book in a tree was better. Usually the only other way to make it far better, was the sun. Sunbathing was always great. And while she had managed to find a stray sunbeam to lay in, sadly she had no hook on her. That said, she wasn't unhappy.

But, as she surveyed the trees from her branch, she saw something approaching. It was an odd shape...it resembled a mechanical turtle, accepting It looked like instead of pulling in it's limbs and head, it would curl into a perfect sphere. It was turtle like, yet at the same time hardly looked anything like a turtle. Suki pondered idly what this odd thing could be. Obviously it was made, though by whom, or for what purpose, She wasn't entirely sure. She had heard of ninja puppets.... Was that what this was? But weren't those typically made of wood and not of such an.... Interesting and unique design? She couldn't rule out the possibility of it being a puppet, but it just wasn't the kind of thing that came to mind. When she had learned about those, she had always pictured humanoid puppets, maybe a canine like attack dog style puppet....this didn't fit the images she imagined. So then, was this something else?

Suki Sat up, maintaining her position in her stray sunbeam. Her long tail swished back and forth, raising into the air occasionally like a friendly cat meeting someone new for the first time. Suki, not yet seeing any humans near, didn't feel The need to speak in human language, so she simply gave a confused, curious, and mildly playful meow. She punched then, jumping close to it, only a foot or two away, close enough to touch, but not too close. She let out another meow, and sniffed hesitantly at it. then, with a single fluid motion, she reached out, her claws safely retracted, and batted what she assumed to be its head. It was fairly simple behavior. No doubt she would resemble a cat seeing a New and unusual toy, who decided to start off with the typical curious and playful batting. "What is this thing?" Suki spoke lightly, whispering to herself.

Clearly it was unnatural and "man-made." That said, as a sentient and self aware feline, she didn't care for that phrase. It seemed to imply that man was the only species who could make such things. Then again, to most people it probably seemed That way. Few people were able to take finding out what she was without the least bit of surprise or shock. Many simply freaked out. Suki's tail continued to swish back and forth behind her, as she contemplated the strange object in front of her. What was it? If it was some freaky puppet, then who was controlling it? Perhaps getting so close to the object as not a wise idea. Just on the off chance, she began concentrating and drawing her chakra. Without moving, she created a small seal on her mouth. It was a basic fuinjutsu, with some ninjutsu thrown in, that would allow her some measure of ability to get some distance. It could be activated instantly in the event the odd thing in front of her attacked. It was best to be cautious after all. Surely all ninja were taught to have backup plans, just incase. And this was simply a precaution. If it didn't harm her, she wouldn't use it.

The cat seemed to respond to his creation as it moved closer to Kappa. Though he was hiding and keeping a distance, Bunshichi could see the two clearly. A gorgeous looking cat, seemed to be a curious one as well. Slowly the cat came closer and closer to the strange ball puppet. Giving it a sniff before patting it. The ball puppet responding as it jumped back slightly as if it was scared and tried to cover it's head, though it's legs didn't do so well in such an action.

Lowering it's head it finally managed to hide it's head behind it's legs. peeking out at the cat. It was violent, simply curious. For a strange creation to suddenly appear had to be interesting. It wasn't natural and had no natural design to it. The puppet simply seemed to stare at the cat for a moment, slowly beginning to tilt it's head from side to side matching the cat's tail. Though the cat spoke in human tongue, the puppet had no ears and so could not react to the rarity of something other then a human talking as a human did. The longer the puppet watched the cat's tail swish back and forth, the more it's head would match it's motion before stopping and lifting it's own rear end into the air. It had no tail but still clearly tried to wiggle it's own rear end in the air. Swinging a few times before coming up with it's own idea as a long metal handle extended from it's back. While normally used by it's master to wield the ball puppet as a large mace, Kappa would begin to swing it from side to side as if it was a very stiff tail. Tilting it's head to the side once more at the cat, it jumped a few times in joy and began wagging it's tail more like a dog's, swiftly. Such a strange side made stranger, though attempting to appear friendly.

Suki still wasn't quite sure of what to make of such an odd thing. What was it and why was in the forest? Was there more? Who had made such a thing? Suki's ears swiveled around and She almost jumped back as the strange object did just that. It seemed to be trying to hide it's head. Was it afraid of her? That was unlikely, such a thing couldn't be conscious and have actual emotions like fear could it? Sure chakra could do a lot of things, but making inanimate objects sentient? She didn't think so, and nor had she ever heard of such a thing. Besides, how could such an object, without a manipulator, move? It would need pistons and such....and a source of power..... Sources of electricity were not something to be found in the woods. So then, that meant this was almost definitely a puppet of some kind. What kind, however, She wasn't entirely sure. Regardless, this was quite unique, that was true.

It had finally managed to stick it's head under a leg. Clearly it wasn't designed for such motions. Then again, it seemed loosely based on a turtle, and turtles didn't do that....well none she had seen. Suki gave a feline smile as its head started to wave side to side. She wasn't exactly sure why it was moving its head in such a way. Was it curious? Wait this was almost definitely some sort of puppet right? It couldn't feel curiosity. So then.... There was a puppet user nearby joking with the local wildlife? Suki let out a sort of giggle for a moment. Suki might well do the same thing given the chance. She would play along.... And keep an eye out just incase. With one preparation already made, she had at least some backup.

Slowly it's head moved a bit faster, and she realized it was timing its head to the motion of her tail. Then it's rear end lifted into the air and began to wiggle. Suki let out a slight giggle then and tilted her own head. It seemed this person in the shadows was indeed just being playful. Then a handle of sort sort seemed to come from it's back. Stiff and rigid like any handle would be. Did someone intend to swing this puppet around in combat? If it circled up it could function like a mace or a non spiky morning star. Was that part of it's design? She wasn't sure what else a handle would be good for. The puppet then began wiggling it's back, then began jumping and waving it's handle around like an overexcited dog. Suki let out a playful and amused meow and spurred slightly. Despite it being an inanimate object, She felt a sort of affection for it. Suki waved Her own tail back and forth, in large sweeping motions, not quick jerky wags. Suki stepped forward and batted it playfully with her paw again, tilting her head in curiousity. Should she just kept playing around here or seek out the puppet user in the shadows? She wasn't sure.
