The Village Excursion (Aya)

[Kiba Inuzuka]

"Heh, Taiyo...Just because you got that headband, that doesn't mean you grew 6 years older or something like that, you're still little to me, but you're tough, you're an Inuzuka, and that means you'll get your goals man, just don't push too hard at the moment." Kiba muttered, his eye twitching at the younger Inuzuka warning him to stop. "Don't you narrow those eyes at me, or I'll bite you." He growled.

Akamaru lightly sidestepped Myou and continued to play around with the smaller, darker dog making sure neither of them got hurt. The bigger white dog pounced at Myou trying to back her up.

"Heh, well...at least we know to save some food at the house for Myou, because thats the last thing we want when you come over, is to have Myou growling and chasing Hana, or Tsume..." Kiba said, stopping himself and grinning. "That would actually be kinda funny seeing Myou chase after Mom, aww...classic." Kiba thought to himself, chuckling. "Yeah, so he gave her one huh? Thats awesome." Kiba muttered, not listening to Taiyo's connections comment.

"Aww geez, the thing isn't going to stay spotless forever..." Kiba groaned as Taiyo muttered about his headband getting scratched. "If yours gets scratched, just gank the other one from Myou and say its yours or something, I don't see the big deal." He pointed out. Kiba then grinned and laughed as Taiyo backed away from Aya. "Oh geez, cool it...I told you about her already, she's cool." Kiba said, laughing lightly.

"Yeah you definitely are creeping him out, I don't get it..." Kiba muttered. "If only he knew right?" He added, laughing slightly. "Well, I'm not gonna force him into anything, its only if you two want to, just please don't harm him, the last thing I need is to have his mom and my mom screaming at me for not watching over him." Kiba said with a smirk, wondering if Aya was being serious.

"Boy you sure have a way with kids huh Aya?" Kiba said, poking fun at the Aburame girl.

[Aburame Aya]

Taiyo never did like to be called little by anyone, even if it was coming from his mother on that matter. He couldn't help but to grin at Kiba when he commented on the fact that he was still younger and didn't grow at all. He rolled his eyes once more at him deciding that it would not be in his best interest to fight with his cousin on the matter in front of this girl that was serious starting to creep him out. He didn't know what it was about her that made him want to run away, but being an Inuzuka running from her was no option at the moment. 'If you bite me, I will just get Tsume on you, and I know you don't want that." He normally didn't throw the fact that Tsume would get him but he did anyways.

Myou barked at Akamaru when he tried to back her up. She bent down slightly and growled at him for it. She didn't want to be taken lightly just because she was a puppy at the moment. She used some back momentum to jump and head butt him in the leg.

Taiyo glared at Kiba when he commented about the food. He made sure Myou was feed each and every day, because he was afraid of the wrath of Tsume if she was to come and didn't find any food in Myou's dish. "Hey! Myou well feed, I feed her everyday! So she doesn't need to come over and eat over there." He looked down to Myou and smiled slightly when he did comment on the headband bit. "He was afraid that if he didn't give her one that she would have bitten him, and I think she would have if she didn't get it soon." He shrugged slightly at the moment, not really caring.

He thought about snatching the headband from Myou, Kiba didn't know Myou has well has he did. "Taking her headband....geez you should brave there Kiba, I wont even do that. Myou would know that I am switching the headband and will bite me. I am not that stupid, not after she had to nearly bite the sensei for it in the first place." He was about to say something else that was directed towards Aya but found himself in a headlock at the moment by the older girl. His eyes widen at the moment and tried to get away from her. "HEY! Let me go you creepy bug girl!!" Myou turned her attention to Taiyo and Aya and started to growl at her, bearing her teeth at the moment.

Aya smiled slightly at Kiba when he suggested to take it easy on Taiyo at the moment. She looked back to Taiyo not even noticing that Myou was now growling at her. Having the dog growl at her was nothing to Aya considering that she was near Kegawa a lot when he was like that. It was just another noise that she had learned how to block out of her mind. She really needed to learn to pick on noises more tho, it was one of the few things that she failed in, but her bugs made up for that for her so not many had noticed that about her. "Now now Kiba, you said that I was going to hurt this kid. I didn't harm you when we was sparring did I? In fact I never even landed a blow to you. You are afraid of your mother?" She titled her head at the comment.

She gave a nervous smile at the fact of her being around kids skills. She never really one to teach children, she didn't know how to properly deal with them. She scratched the side of her face slightly for a second. "Well yea, I guess I am not that type of person to deal with kids very often....." She held on Taiyo has he struggled in her grip at the moment. She smirked and raised her other hand to his head and rubbed her knuckles aganst his head.

[Kiba Inuzuka]

"Of course Taiyo, the old if you try to hurt me I'll get your mother thing...yeah, yeah...I went through that phase with Hana, so I get the picture little fang." Kiba growled, rolling his eyes at the younger Inuzuka. Kiba called Taiyo little fang for two reasons, one was that he liked to call him this to piss Taiyo off sometimes and two was because Kiba saw a bit of himself in the boy and wanted to give him something to shoot for. "But I can understand if you're trying to scare me...Tsume would scare most anyone." He pointed out, shaking his head slightly.

Akamaru took the headbutt in the leg and stepped back slightly, surprised by Myou's surge of strength, but that didn't stop Akamaru from trying once again to playfully take the smaller dog down carefully.

"Yeah right Taiyo...do you know how many times I covered your butt when you didn't fill his bowls up in time?" Kiba asked, crossing his arms. "Tsume would have throttled you if I didn't fill it a couple days for you." He growled. "And you know that whenever you come over, the dog eats well anyways, so why argue with me?" Kiba asked. "What the heck did you do? Train her to be mean to the sensei? Thats not cool at all, if she would have bitten him, I wonder what would have happened..."

"Hey...I'd totally switch them out, you know I'd try it." Kiba said with a laugh. "I am brave, and thats a fact." He said, smirking. It was the truth as Kiba would try the craziest stuff to try and make it work, sometimes to a reward, sometimes to a punishment, either way Kiba learned something out of the deal. "Huh? Aya?!?" Kiba said in surprise. "HAHA!!"

"Aya, there's a huge difference between him and I though...he just graduated the academy and I'm a Chuunin, I can avoid attacks and move, he can barely do that..." Kiba pointed out. "I know you didn't hit me, but you were really never on offense either, plus you could easily hit him with an attack." Kiba muttered. "Once again, guys...on a bad day, you'd be afraid of Tsume too..."

Aya would get her chance to meet the Inuzuka woman sooner than she thought as she was out and about looking for Taiyo. "Hey You!! Get your hands off my nephew!! And Kiba?!? What the hell are you doing letting this girl mess with your cousin?" She growled. "Who the hell are you trying to mess with Taiyo?" She muttered, narrowing her eyes at Aya. "You've got 5 seconds to let the kid go..."

[/size][/color]

[Aburame Aya]

Taiyo blinked when Kiba called him little fang, it had been a while since he heard the name came out of his cousin's mouth. The only thing that he saw wrong with it was the fact of the little bit. He hated being called little, sure he might be small for his age but he was still growing there was no need of him to be called little all the time. Even his mother still called him little from time to time and he still told her off about that. He growled once more about the little part towards Kiba. "Damn it Kiba....don't call me little!" If Kiba was trying to piss him off than it worked rather well. He never really planned on telling on Kiba to Tsume, she would just get pissed at her for causing her problems to start with.

Myou kinda smirked at Akamaru when he backed up from her headbutt. She had grown since last time they played together and she was going to prove it to him. She gave him a playful bark at the moment and dodged his attack. She was smaller and it allowed her move freely between his legs to dodge he most of the time.

Taiyo grinned when Kiba started to accuse him of not filling Myou's food dish up in time. He grinned and looked away from Kiba. "I don't forget about Myou! I can't help it if she always hungry! She a growing dog, she needs her food so don't think just because she comes over and see one of the dogs at your house food filled and she eats it all she going hungry Kiba.' He had never purposely forgotten Myou, if he did Myou herself would let him know by biting him on his arm and pulling him to feed her. "I didn't train her to be mean to the sensei! She doesn't like to be left out of things, you know that. She knows that the only one that she bites is you since you think you are such a big hot shot!" He was joking in this matter towards his cousin and the smirk on his face showed it at the moment.

He tried to wiggle out of Aya's grib. He didn't like that she was rubbing her knuckles against his head at the moment. And then the conversation was gearing more towards Tsume and that was someone that he didn't want to deal with at all. He frowned and tried to bite Aya's arm but got a mouth full of bugs. He started to rub his sleeve against his mouth, until he heard his aunt's voice. She was saving him! He couldn't believe. 'Creepy girl is in for it now Kiba!"

Aya listened to Kiba talk about how she was not even attacking Kiba, which was true, she didn't feel like hurting him at the point. Taiyo on the other hand she did feel like hurting to show him a thing or two about being a shinobi since he was freshly out of the academy. She looked up to Kiba and had her hand on Taiyo's head. ]"Inuzuka Tsume, your mother?" She had heard that name some where before today, she placed her finger up to her lip and slightly ran through the names of people inside her head, tho it didn't ring a bell to her at all.

She looked over to the voice and tilted her head when the older woman started to yell and scream at her about letting go of Taiyo. She smirked slightly making sure she took the woman in closely and watched her movements. Now she remembered who Tsume was from the reports of missions that she had to file sometimes that annoyed her to no end. "Ah Inuzuka Tsume! Its nice to finally meet you! Both of our clans have been teamed up for decades now. Aburame Ayako, Jounin like yourself, but don't you just hold the special jounin title? That means I am higher up than you are right?" She had a cheeky smile on her face at the moment.

She blinked when the woman gave her give seconds to let go of Taiyo, a playful smile came onto her face. "Hai, I will let go of him. No need to come off your rocker." She let go of Taiyo but quickly placed her hands together under her sleeves that was hidden. She connected their shadows quickly because she was standing right in Taiyo's shadow. "See see, I let go."

[Inuzuka Tsume]

Kiba chuckled to himself as Taiyo was distressed with him throwing the little part into the nickname. "The only way I'll take away the little part is if you manage to beat me in a fight, do my chores for a week, or really do something big." He said with a chuckle. "But who knows? You could save me someday...so I better not burn my nephew's bridge." Kiba joked.

Akamaru simply was underestimating the smaller dog and blinked as Myou was able to simply weave around his legs and got outpaced. The big white dog simply had to stop and wait to see what Myou would do next...

"Yeah right Taiyo, not even Akamaru ate that much..." Kiba joked. "Myou pissed off Kuromaru last time that happened and you know what happens when he's in a bad mood, then Tsume's on a warpath..." Kiba growled. "Oh and as for the hot shot thing, she's only bitten me twice, but I deserved them, so you can forget all about that statement, because I know when I deserve to get bit." He growled. "Yeah, Myou hates being left out which means theres always nipping between Myou and Hana's dogs..." Kiba pointed out. "I'll buy that though..."

The moment that Tsume busted through and yelled, it seemed like time stood still for Kiba. "Oh god...mom?" He muttered.

"I hold that title because I've got more talent than you buggy girl...now let the kid go before I show you how I got that title." Tsume said through clenched teeth. She totally ignored Aya's comment about being higher ranked and crossed her arms. "Come off my rocker? I'll show you off my rocker if you don't listen to me..." Tsume growled. "No funny stuff either, I know who you're folks are..." She said, growling slightly.

"Come on Taiyo, Kiba...You two are gonna get it now..." Tsume growled.

[/size][/color]

[Aburame Aya]

Taiyo grinned slightly when Kiba commented on how he had to somehow proved to him that he was not little. That just didn't seem right at all to the young Inuzuka, because there was no way he was going to win a fight with him at his level, no way he was going to have Hana breath down his throat for the work around the house that he did, and no way he was going to save his life mainly because they didn't do much with each other in the first place. He rolled his eyes slightly at Kiba on that matter. "Geez, bunch of death traps in those jobs. Rather not die at the moment Kiba. One day tho, I will make you drop that little front of that name." He really wasn't going to leave it up for talking about, that was the last he was going to comment on this matter.

When Akamaru stopped and waited for her next move she kinda barked at him slightly, telling him off for underestimating her. She had grown and now he was just realizing it. She leaned down on her front paws and then jumped up playfully biting his neck and trying to tackled him to the ground. She knew that it would take a lot of force to actually to knock him down but she tried anyways.

Taiyo knew exactly what happens when Kuromaru and Tsume was on their war path, and it was never fun being around them when they was. He was glad that he lived a block or so away form that house hold than with them. "Yea I remembered when Myou ate his food....." He looked down to Myou for a moment and back up to Kiba. "She gets along with the three of them just fine Kiba, has long has they don't pick on her for her size that is and don't leave her out of playing with them. And you did deserve the bites she given you over the years."

With the bugs out of his mouth, he knew that he lived up to the Aburame name that the clan was famous for. He was glaring at her now, not liking this girl and was so glad his Aunt was here now, for the first time in his life really. He sighed sightly when she released him and winced has he watched the younger girl talk to his aunt. He knew that the girl was slowly digging herself her own grave. He swallowed when he heard that both him and Kiba was going to get it now. He went to walked from the girl but found himself not being about to move at all. What the hell was going on here.

Aya watched Tsume closely, making sure to keep an eye on her for the most part. Everyone one here was mostly used for tracking, so she knew that her little earth trick she used on Kiba earlier was not going to work that well if there was going to be a fight between the two of them. In truth Aya was itching to start something with Tsume, she never really tried to beat up someone from the Inuzuka Clan or someone that was in the range of her parents years, it never came up for her, and she just wanted to test out of skills.

She blinked slightly when Tsume mentioned about having more skills than her. She grinned slightly at the older woman not liking her comment about that. She cracked her neck slightly, her little fun and games was running thin now but she knew how to keep her cool and that was going to be the key difference from her and Tsume it seemed. "More skills than what I got huh? I hold my title because I do have skill has well. If you feel your bite is worse than your bark, than bite." She knew that it was not a good idea to torment this Jounin but she had insulted her own skills.

Her eyes went to Taiyo has he tried to walk off but couldn't, then she heard the last comment about her parents. She didn't doubt that Tsume knew her parents, they was in the same age range so it wouldn't be surprise that most of the older generation of Shinobi knew that she had knew both Hidden jutsu from both families. She smirked slightly at Tsume, the kid ruined her fun with Kiba and now she was ruining her fun with the kid. Today it just seemed like she was itching for a good fight, and she might get it with Tsume here. "You might know who my parents are, because lets face it most older generation shinobi knows them, but you aint got a clue what I am capable of doing."

[Inuzuka Tsume]

Kiba laughed at his little cousin's comments about the three things he suggested. "Good point Taiyo, I'm sure we can work something out, considering I didn't think about how hazardous it is to someone's health to keep my house clean." He muttered, laughing slightly. Kiba knew Taiyo was a good kid who had his head in the right place, and had the mouth of the Inuzuka clan, but he wasn't about to let the little kid steal his thunder, at least not yet.

Akamaru didn't fall but stumbled back a few steps and shook his head, slightly impressed with Myou's skills. The big dog barked back letting her know she was good with skills, despite being outsized. It felt kinda strange to the big dog with Myou hanging on him, but he sat on his haunches and waited for the black dog to let go.

"I never said the dogs don't get along, they just don't like it when she eats their food Taiyo." Kiba muttered. "And besides that, its usually Myou that starts the fights, even though its entertaining at times." He added. Kiba sighed and shook his head at the young boy, letting him get his words out at the moment. "Didn't I just say that I deserved them Taiyo? Its not like I haven't been bitten before..." Kiba growled, hating to argue with Taiyo over all sorts of things.

Kiba laughed slightly as Taiyo got a mouthful of bugs, "Eww man...I'm sure that had to taste awful..." He said, holding back a laugh. He knew that there was no escaping a scolding now no matter what, so he simply stood back and watched the confrontation between the two. "Aya, come on now...I know you wanted to spar and stuff, but Tsume isn't the one to mess with, I'll spar you later..." Kiba growled to the Aburame girl.

Tsume looked uneasy at the sight of Aya holding onto her nephew and her face showed her angry and fury, which at the moment was low for her. "I'm serious Aburame, let him go, I'm not in the mood to be playing any of your nonsense games at the moment." She growled. "I don't think its smart for you to be messing with an older ninja who has more experience..." Tsume added with a snarl.

"Hah, So you do feel like testing me huh?" Tsume growled, cracking her knuckles. "I was respecting you with my last comment, but now it looks like you're being foolish and want a trip to the village hospital." She said with a evil smirk. "Alright bug girl, why the hell isn't my nephew coming over to me?"

"Taiyo?" Tsume growled, crossing her arms. "This is no time to be playing games..." She growled, about to move over and yank him away until she looked to the ground and frowned. "A shadow user too huh? Which side of the family is the Nara on?" Tsume growled. "I don't care what you're capable of doing, its if you can actually perform it dear..." Tsume said, a bit snobby. "I'll tell you what, I've been wanting to show these two how to fight for a long time, so I'll throw you this challenge." She said. "Let my nephew go, and I'll spar you, or if you don't let him go, I'll seriously come after you...there's your two choices, so be smart..."

Kiba simply stood back and chuckled slightly, not believing that his mother was going to spar Aya.

[/size][/color]

[Aburame Aya]

Taiyo grinned at Kiba about making a deal about dropping the little from the nickname. It annoyed him because even his own mother gave him a chance not not call him that since he was about nine years old. Plus cleaning up after five dogs instead of one was to Taiyo a big headache in itself and knew better than to agree to cleaning up their house. Sure from time to time when he was over there and Kiba or Hana was cleaning up he helped to considering it was mostly Myou's fault. "I help you clean up when I am over there from time to time, specially if Myou makes the mess." He rubbed his nose slightly trying to act cool and like had was grown up slightly.

Myou let go of Akamaru once she realize that he was not going to go down like she wanted him to do. She sat down and wagged her tail slightly. She had a smirk across her face slightly and tilted her head up to the sky for a second before turning her head back to Akamaru and gave a friendly bark to him. She was not trying to act to big for her paws, it was just showing the older dog that she had grown up since the last time he saw her.

Taiyo knew that Kiba was right there, she hate their foods and was the one that normally started the fights with the brothers. He looked over to Myou for a moment and looked back to Kiba and just shrugged. He was done talking about the subject with him. If he wanted to press the matter than he would bite Kiba's finger and he was not playing at that. He reached up and placed his hands behind his head. "Pft, whatever Kiba." That was all he was going to say on the matter and didn't care if that started a fight or not. He could take Kiba somewhat.

Taiyo looked to Tsume slightly and the best that he could has he was under Aya's shoulder possession jutsu. She thought that he was playing at the moment. He wanted nothing but to get away from Aya to start with. He growled slightly. "I am not play! I can't move!" Once Tsume started to question Aya, he heard the Nara name and frowned slightly, not knowing all that was about the clan itself. All he knew that most of them was lazy and smart and that was about it.

Aya watched Tsume and frowned slightly when she started to talk about experience. She had earned her title and was promoted to ANBU before she was selected to be a Jounin. Something that her parents did understand why she chosed to signed up. She listened to Tsume suggestion about talking about a spar and going all out with her if she didn't let go of Taiyo. She moved her left hand and dropped the transformation jutsu on her sleeve the moment revealing the ANBU symbol and quickly replaced the torn part of her sleeve. "Inuzuka Tsume, please don't take me lightly. If we are to spar we are going to spar at the best of both of our abilities. I am a shinobi just like you that have worked up the ranks. I have earned my tilted just like you. And I hated just because I am a bit off from my clans that people do tend to take me lightly. You shouldn't. Promise me that you will treat this spar like any other battle."

She dropped the shadow possession jutsu on Taiyo tho for good faith. She placed her hand on his shoulder and smiled down at him. "If you are anything like the Inuzukas that I know you will do just fine in the shinobi world. Don't try to act big, you are already on the right track with graduating the academy a year early. That is something to be proud of in its own right. Now go stand with Kiba and make sure you keep your eyes on the fight with both of us. You will learn something Taiyo." She gave him a gentle pat on the shoulder and pushed him slightly towards Kiba.

Taiyo blinked and looked up to Aya when she started to talk about not acting big at the moment. He didn't think that he was but he nodded. He held his hands down to Myou and watched her jump up into his arms. He placed her ontop of his head and walked over to Kiba and looked up to him. "Aunt Tsume seemed mad at the moment with her..." He looked over to Tsume.

Aya smiled at Tsume, it was a friendly one for now, tho it tend to change once she actually got serious something that she knew that she would need in this fight. "To answer you question about which one of my parents is the Nara. It is my mother who was born into the Nara clan and my father the Aburame. I was suppose to only learn the Aburame ability but because my bugs inside of me made me nearly lose my eye slight I was taught since I was four to use both the Nara and Aburame jutsu. Tho that is not my only tricks up my sleeve. I am far different from the concept of my clans, and I have a completed different personality than most of the Nara and Aburame. Don't base what you know about the two clans onto me. Now since I was the one that was mainly insulting you, for that I apologize for, lets spar. Please. Your move."

[Inuzuka Tsume]

Kiba stood back and watched the two Jounin stare down one another, "Oh here we go..." He muttered lowly. The Inuzuka boy sighed and crossed his arms as Aya let Taiyo go from the restraints of his own shadow. "Oh yeah...this is gonna be good." He whispered to Taiyo, taking a few steps back with the younger Inuzuka. "Maybe they'll knock each other out..." He added with a chuckle.

"Dear girl, I never take my opponents lightly, its just that when you deal with family, thats when I start to get angry." Tsume pointed out, putting her hands on her hips, still sizing up the Aburame girl. "Thats impressive, but it really fails to scare me, if thats what you're trying to do." She said roughly. "I didn't happen to appreciate the smart remark about the Special Jounin rank either, we're both Jounin and both work to protect this place, so I think a little more respect would be nice." Tsume growled. "One more thing, I'll keep that to silence...you've gotta watch who you flash that to." She added, grinning slightly as she pointed to the ANBU symbol.

"As for the spar, Ayako...I wouldn't treat it any other way, I'm serious in battle out in the field and serious when I spar, nothing changes." Tsume pointed out, still being slightly serious. "Oh and I carry no hate towards you, I was just worried you were roughing up my nephew." She said, letting out a small laugh. Tsume then listened to what Aya told the younger Inuzuka and grinned, nodding slightly. "She's not so bad...at least she's making it into a learning experience." Tsume thought to herself.

Kiba laughed and sighed slightly as Taiyo talked about Tsume's anger. "She was worried about you goofball." He muttered. "Now sit down and watch this, its gonna be good..." He muttered, pulling Taiyo and Myou to the ground to sit next to him.

"Ahh, I see...very interesting story..." Tsume said lowly. "This girl could be pretty crafty with the bold statements coming from her mouth." The elder Inuzuka thought to herself. "Hehe, a good spar is enough apology to me, now let your skills do the talking would ya?" Tsume said with a evil smirk. "Alright Kuromaru, lets move it!! Beast Mimicry!!" She cried, growing her claws out and dropping to all fours. Her wolven companion came rushing ahead first from her right, which Tsume favoring the left, lunging out and trying to tag her, much like Kiba did earlier.

[/size][/color]

[Aburame Aya]

Aya listened to Tsume and smiled slightly. She had failed to realize why she actually showed her the ANBU symbol. This was going to be good in the long run, for the time being. She haven't had a spar like this in a long time against an Inuzuka. She would have to go beat to Baito a bit later and bug him for a spar. Today she had meet three more Inuzuka and she felt like spending time with Baito now, but she knew that this was no time to worry about that, she was facing someone with more experience than what she had, so she knew she had to be on her toes. "You got me wrong Tsume-chan, I don't wish to scare you about this, I am just showing you that I am just not a simple lucky brat that got to Jounin rank. And I trust you Inuzuka, my best friend/team mate when I was Kiba and Taiyo's age was an Inuzuka. I need to go visit him sooner or later." She smiled and looked up to the sky for a moment.

Taiyo looked overe to Kiba and grinned has he was pulled down beside him and Akamaru. A fight between Jounin and a pretty daring younger one was something that no one got a chance to see for the most part. This was going to be good. He petted Myou's head. "We should bet to see who wins Kiba...." A bet, he knew if Tsume heard that it was going to be his head in a pile of dirty dishes later, but it was worth it.

She nodded slightly when Tsume suggest that they placed their mouth where their skills was. She watched the older Inuzuka attack just like Kiba. She was not going to allow this one to get the first attack off her like that. That would be no fun in that matter. She smirked and waved her hand to Kiba slightly. "Doton: Moguragakure no Jutsu," she said quietly to herself and sank once more in the dirt.

This to her seemed like the perfect justu to hide from an Inuzuka. She knew that Baito hated her when sank below the earth like this, but it took her nearly a year to master this and she had gotten better at disposing of her chakra during that year has well. She would not going to be toying completely with Tsume, she knew that Tsume was a good at the three types of range fighting, where she lacked close and long. She had to make sure she could catch Tsume in her shadow possession before she actually used it, she wont fall for the same trick twice would she?

After a moment or so, about six of Aya merged from underground. They was surround Tsume with a crafty little smirk on their face. This was more fun than anything at the moment. toying with Tsume at the moment. It seemed like the thing to do to annoy her. "Hey, Tsume-chan! Do you feel like playing Human whack a mole with me? Its a new game me and Kiba came up with just today." All of the Aya's waited for Tsume next move which seemed like the best action at the moment.

[Inuzuka Tsume]

Tsume listened to the girl and was shocked to hear that she wasn't just showing off the ANBU symbol to scare her, but more to prove a fact. The elder Inuzuka couldn't help but grin, as it was good to see a younger person not letting the power go to her head. Tsume held a slight amount of respect for Aya now, but it was going to take more than this to get her to show it. "I'm glad to hear that...but show me with the Jutsu, talking only takes you so far." Tsume pointed out. "Just don't go all sentimental on me now honey, we've got a spar to take care of."

"A bet?" Kiba said lowly. The Inuzuka boy couldn't help but laugh as Taiyo made the suggestion. "Oh man, we should...hurry up and tell me who you're gonna take and then we'll discuss the stakes." He said with a big grin. "Sshh...gotta be quiet about that though, Tsume hates gambling and casinos and junk like that, so hurry up." Kiba said with a laugh.

Tsume growled in frustration as the Aburame girl pulled off her jutsu, disappearing under the soil. This hadn't been the first time she'd seen this, but unknowing to Aya, she'd yet to be able to find a weak spot in that jutsu to attack. "I should have known she was going to do that." She thought to herself, looking and sniffing around for the girl to reappear. "I'm gonna guess that Kiba couldn't break it up either..." Tsume muttered to herself.

The older Inuzuka woman stood impatiently and tried to think about where Aya was trying to take this battle, would she be going more towards Aburame jutsu? Or start kicking in the shadow part of her Nara heritage, or perhaps this girl had a new style that combined the two, it was just something that ran through Tsume's head before voices rang out at Tsume.

"Hmm, nice clone work..." Tsume muttered. "The only question is if their bug clones or normal, and despite not wanting to slash after bugs..." She growled. "I may have to do that.." Tsume took a moment and concentrated her chakra to her nose, making it much more sensitive for smell, and quickly cued Kuromaru up to confirm the real Aya. "Human whack a mole huh? I think we'll skip that one for now..." Tsume said, smirking and running towards one of the Aya's, slashing at her as she prayed it was the real her. It was hard to tell with the earthy smell, but she swore she smelled the most chakra on the one she went after.

"I hope I did this right..." Tsume thought to herself, wondering how Aya would defend herself.

[Aburame Aya]

Taiyo was a bit surprise that Kiba took him up on the bet, but knew that they had to agree to something rather fast before they was caught. He watched Tsume for a moment before turning his attention on Kiba and petted Myou who was now sitting in his lap. "Well, I bet you 50 Ryo that Aunt Tsume will win this little fight between them." He smirked thinking that Tsume would win because she was just plain out scary at times, and he was shocked that Aya was in a laughing fit over this basically.

Aya was a little bit disappointed in Tsume who didn't seem to want to play Human Whack a mole with her. She looked to the ground and sighed slightly has she shock her head some. When she looked down all the clones looked down has well. Getting too serious in a spar like this was never something she did unless she had no choice off the bat. There was no reason to go all out at the moment. She had the upper hand here with her mole jutsu, but if she kept relaying on it, she was sure Tsume would get to annoyed and depend that she attack head on in the fight. That was something that Aya herself was not very good at. She was no way a close range fighter, her Nara and Aburame abilities was both long range to a point. Her Earth jutsu seemed like the only thing that she could use at the moment. Well she was going to make known the older women what she was about to do now.

The Aya that was being attacked first by the Jonin blinked has she looked up just in time and to move back from the out reached hand. She laughed slightly and shock her head. "Result of guess number one Tsume-chan...." with that the Aya busted into millions on bugs. The bugs scattered over to the other five Aya's standing in the circle. Tho the ones closer to Tsume now jumped back a good five feet or so and watched her. "Well I guess that one was a bug clone. There five left, could be more bug clones or normal clones. You better choose better at trying to find our chakra level." The one Aya that seemed to be talking and the one to the left of Tsume spiked up their chakra level. She wanted to see what Tsume would do. Her eyes was carefully on her wolf dog as well. She was not taking it so slightly now.

Aya knew that she had to be careful mainly because unlike Kiba, Tsume did have experience and she was not exactly sure what this overly hyper Jonin was able to do at this level of things. She took a deep breath slightly. "There is no way I can get into a hand to hand combat with her and make it out unhurt, my best option is to keeping the distance from her until she wears down and be mindful of the dog. Come to think about it...its rather a drag. A fight like this shouldn't be of ability and knowledge and I shouldn't have to worry about the oversize dog that wants to bite me....man...this is a drag now...." One Aya pushed her hair back from her face but smiled slightly at the same time.

[Inuzuka Tsume]

Kiba chuckled lightly and nodded, "Alright 50 Ryo on Aya for me then..." He said with a smirk on his face. Honestly, Kiba had no clue who would win this, he banked on the fact that he could only get two claws on her before they resulted to the antics of the Whack a mole game. "This is already looking interesting...because Aya wants to stay away from the close up fighting while Tsume wants to isolate and draw Aya in for hand to hand...you'll learn a lot from this Taiyo." Kiba said with a grin.

Tsume was a bit put off by the fact that Aya was trying to make this into a game and had to grit her teeth to hide her anger. This was a rarity that she was really this close to losing it, seeming how she hardly ever lost her composure in the middle of a battle, and then again, after trying a few times, the elder Inuzuka was usually able to run off most comers in a simple battle. "You're definitely one of a kind Aya, but you're still not going to fool me with all this joking around." She growled.

As soon as Tsume busted through the bug clone, she growled loudly and cursed a few choice words under her breath. "Damn this...I'll find you yet Aya!!" Tsume said threateningly. "How the hell did I not get her right there?" Tsume said with a scowl. As she was in her slight rant, She and Kuromaru felt the chakra spike and uncharacteristically her wolf-dog dove forward at another clone on left of Tsume, while Tsume took the one next to Kuromaru to slash at.

"Come on bug girl, I know you're trying to pull tricks and piss me off, you're not the first..." Tsume growled. The Inuzuka woman wasn't about to give up just because of getting a little mad, but if she flew off the handle like she could, it was dangerous, for both Aya and Tsume herself. "I can't keep playing her games, I need to find her out and show her how really fight... Tsume thought to herself as the two slashed at two more clones, hoping to find Aya.

[Aburame Aya]

[

Taiyo blinked slightly when Kiba bet against Tsume. He never thought he would see the day that he would. He knew better than to bet against her for the simple fact if Tsume did get wind of their little bet that he might have a better chance of getting out of trouble if it was placed on Tsume. He shrugged slightly and smirked slightly. 'Your death wish but whatever." He petted Myou on her head has he turned his attention back to the fight at hand.

Aya watched Tsume closely at the moment, it would seem that her range defense was getting to the older ninja. Her strategy was not working in her flavor like the thought at first it would. She might have to come up with something else that might work in the long run but right now it was no time to drain her mind on coming up with something else that would work against Tsume, she was not Baito and Kegawa that was for sure they wouldn't be talking up a storm like she was doing and complaining about it. In fact they would be laughing at her because she got around the whole attacking like this and using their chakra to trick them like she was doing with Tsume.

She watched her next to clones burst into insects, she allowed the to fly over head seeing there was only one of the clones and Aya herself left. This caused her to smirk slightly, there was two on two at the moment and things didn't seem to be in Tsume flavor, if she used another clone it could become dangerous for the both of them because Tsume might go into a rant or a rage and that was something that Aya did not want to do for the most part. Using her Shadow Possession at the moment would only delay Tsume angry and she didn't think she was capable of actually stopping her with it for the most part. She would have to come up with something else for this to work.

"I just have to insert my foot on this and challenge this over psych ninja into a fight and now I have my back up against a wall for the most part. Can't get close to her, and she getting mad about my bug clones." "Don't get too upset Tsume-chan. I am a Aburame after all we normally do not have close combat skills period. We fight with our insects by our sides." With that both Aya's reached into their pouch and pulled out some skurikens and kunai. To the end of the kunai was explosive tags. They smirked some and threw them down at the ground towards Tsume and Kuromaru. In her pouch tho she had felt some smoke bombs that Baito had given her some time ago that she had never felt the need to use before. She smirked and had taken that out as well, but instead of throwing it, she placed it inside her mouth, her clone followed suit ad acted like it had popped something in its mouth has well. She stored it between the side of her mouth and teeth for now and split it out at the last second. That was her plan for now.

[Inuzuka Tsume]

Kiba chuckled lightly as Taiyo looked stunned by his decision to bet against Tsume. "I know what you're thinking squirt...and its not gonna matter to her, she doesn't care about careless bets like this." Kiba muttered. "Taiyo, My death wish?" The Inuzuka boy muttered to himself. "If thats the case with Tsume little fang boy....I wouldn't be breathing right now." Kiba growled, calming down only when Akamaru gave Kiba a lick on his cheek to do just that. "You didn't fight her, I did...." Kiba said lowly.

Tsume was having to do everything at the moment to not go flying off the handle, and in battles like this, that was the last thing the elder Inuzuka wanted to do, but she had to hand it to the Aburame girl, she had talent and to stump her like this for the moment, there was something to be said about Ayako's skills. This still didn't change the fact that Tsume was quickly running out of patience and setting herself up for a trap if she didn't quickly find the girl and make her fight on her terms, close quarter wise.

Kuromaru simply sniffed the air again and let out a laugh. "C'mon Tsume, This girl is good, but I've seen you take on tougher opponents." The Wolf-Dog muttered to Tsume. "Oh stow it!! She's not bad..." She said with a mumble. Tsume had the realization that she was taking the clones too seriously and took a step back, grinning lightly. "Alright Aya, I see what you're doing, doing the same thing that others did to make me lose...I know I get pissed, but not a lot of people can truly say they've beaten me in a fight, only a handful I can think of." Tsume muttered, looking over the clones.

"I'm not mad, I just hate losing..." Tsume growled, narrowing her beast eyes slightly. "I know this, as we have canines to fight alongside us, but I'd never thought to be outsmarted by insects." She said lowly. The next thing that happened nearly caught Tsume and Kuromaru off guard and they had to tumble back to avoid the blasts from the tags. "Damnit, What the hell was that?" Tsume growled, going back to being pissed and now performing a fang over fang at one of the clones, Kuromaru racing in at the other, now knowing that one of them had to be right in their guesses.

"Enough playing around!!" Tsume yelled, spinning quickly with her claws outstretched.
