Fūrin

Fūrin is a Kunoichi that was born and raised in Konoha. She was born in a very rich family under the shadow of her successful father who was a businessman. He was a citizen in Konoha and he had many companies there and he gained lots of money. Fūrin lived in a palace with her father and mother who always bought her what she wished for the instant she wished for it. However, her parents didn't care for her nor spent time with her. She grew up as a loner who spent time by herself with no one beside her.

Fūrin wanted attention from her father and mother and everyone else as she felt neglected growing up. This made her resolved to get attention and recognition. She decided that she wanted to go to the academy and learn ninjutsu in order to become a Kunoichi. Her father agreed to her request just to get her off his back and to get her to stop complaining. So she entered the academy and started training in order to get the respect she thought she deserved from her parents. She got the best grades, but her parents didn't care much for her even when she was the best in her class. This made Fūrin depressed from lack of attention and decided that she will show her parents how good she was as she made it her goal to become a Daimyō. Fūrin turned into an attention freak when she grew up, she wanted to be noticed by everyone, which is a psychological reaction to her being neglected by her parents. =Background= War ... Chaos, this is what happened in Konoha after the declaring the start of the fourth shinobi war. That was a big news that shook the great five nations as it took them by surprise. Shinobi went into the battlefield, souls were lost, but peace was gained as the shinobi forces stood victorious against the threat. However, they were left at a crumbled state of sorrow and despair after losing many of their properties. They lost family members, houses and even children. It was horrible. Nothing could be done about what has been lost, reconstruction needed to be made in the glorious Konoha and that's what happened exactly. There were those who were unlucky and lost their homes, which caused them to live in the streets as they had no money thanks to the financial state of Konoha at that time.

There was a rich man who didn't belong to that group of people. He was a businessman who lived in Konoha in a great palace in the centre of the village. He had servants that did everything for him and he lived a luxurious life, not having any trouble whatsoever. With him lived his wife who came from an average family that lived in Konoha. She lived with her husband in his palace with no worries. One day, they knew that the woman was pregnant with a child. Signs of joy and happiness spread allover the place as the father was very happy to finally get a son. And, there lied the problem, he wanted a son and he was confident that it was going to be a boy. He wanted him to carry his name and become as successful as himself one day.

Nine months passed and it was time for the abortion of the child. The father waited anxiously as he wanted to see if he was a boy as he expected. The doctor came out of the room and congratulated him and told him that it was a girl. This made him very sad and angry. However, she was still his daughter and he took her to live with him and her mother at the palace. He didn't look at her and he didn't have any father and daughter relationship with her. He always ignored her and made her feel like she was unwanted. She felt his hate towards her since she was five years old and she could understand what was going on. She couldn't comprehend why he didn't like her as she had done nothing. She always stayed in her room alone playing with her dolls and everything she wanted was granted to her without making any effort.

Fūrin tried impressing her father in many ways, but she just couldn't as he refused to communicate with her except rarely as she only saw him when they were having dinner. She tried talking to him many times, he would respond in a rude fashion as he gives the indication of not wanting her to bother him. Fūrin wanted a way to prove herself to her father. She was wondering in the village one day as she saw the training in the academy, she sat there and stared at the academy students as they were practicing and sparing with each other. She then saw their parents coming to take them while hugging them and showing them affection, on that day she went back home and cried all night as she lacked the feeling of love from her parents while she saw the other kids.

Fūrin went everyday and watched the academy students. She thought that if she could be like them, her father might accept her and show her affection. So she went back home and begged her father to join the academy. This was when she was eight years old. Her father didn't care and he wanted her to stop whining so he agreed to let her join the academy. She was very happy for his acceptance and went to the academy. She started training on using chakra and ninjutsu as well as weaponry. She was the smartest girl in the academy and she showed great skill in learning academic skills. She got the highest grades in the academy, acing all the tests, despite being hard. She went back home to show her father the grades, yet he paid little attention to them and didn't care. This tore Fūrin apart as she had very high hopes to get her father's acceptance and yet, she got nothing. She worked hard to get those grades and she got nothing in return, not even a word of encouragement. She was crushed and she didn't know what to do at that stage. She was unhappy with her condition although she had anything she wanted whenever she wanted, but her money couldn't buy her father's love or attention. The thing that made Fūrin sad is that she didn't see anything that could be done about it, she tried everything and yet nothing worked.

Fūrin wanted to become the highest thing she could in order to get recognition. She thought about it and decided that she wanted to be the Daimyō of the land of fire, it is a big goal to adopt, but she decided that she would do her best in order to reach that goal and to get noticed by everyone not just her father. This was one of the side effects of being neglected for a long period of time when being a child, it produced a psychological reaction to being neglected, which made Fūrin strive to get recognized by everyone. She wanted to surpass all and become the Daimyō.

The Beginning of The Journey
After setting up her goal, Fūrin decided that she needs to work hard in order to achieve it as becoming a Daimyō isn't an easy task. She needed to work on her leadership skills and become a more independent woman. She also knew that she had to be skilled enough in order to get noticed by the village, which will lead her to her goal. Fūrin knew that the journey ahead of her won't be easy, but she was willing to work for her target. She had confidence in her abilities to reach her desires. This was when her determination and willpower began to appear as she was resolved to become the Daimyō and was ready to face the dangers in the road to that goal on her own.

First, she realized that she needed to improve her combat skills and get better in each section of her fighting styles. However, she didn't have a specific fighting style as she was too young to specialize in a certain field. She was drawn to Ninjutsu and the art of using the sword, which most people called Kenjutsu. She was appealed by weaponry in general and enjoyed practicing with weaponry or as some would call it Bukijutsu. When she was nine, she decided that she wanted to master Ninjutsu and become a well-known Ninjutsu user similar to the second Hokage, the honorable Tobirama Senju. She had heard of Tobirama and how good he was at using Ninjutsu specifically water release. Her being delved into Tobirama's history made her think what nature she might end up having, she felt attracted to water release since she took Tobirama as an idol, but it was no certainty that she would end up obtaining water release.

She went to the academy the next day as usual. She walked in class and began to watch as the teachers lectured the students about chakra and chakra pathway as well as the importance of chakra control. She was taught numerous things at the academy, one being the cycle of elements. She knew how they worked and learned what were the weaknesses of each element. This amused Fūrin, it made her intrigued by a few natures, which were Water, Wind and Earth. She hoped that she would get any of them as she saw fire and lightning to have limited uses and could only be used for offensive methods of fighting. She couldn't wait until she could figure out her affinity and begin working on her Ninjutsu. She was full of energy and happiness. She stayed up late studying at the Konoha library about elements and Ninjutsu in order to know how to use nature transformation. She studied in many scrolls and knew how chakra worked.

The following day, she went to the academy and spent her day there as usual with nothing new or out of order happening. After the academy day was over, she went to the training grounds. There was a river and some trees there and it made the perfect spot for training in Fūrin's case as she was going to practice chakra control. She had already studied of the methods of walking on trees and water using chakra when she was in the library. She began flowing chakra at the bottom of her feet and started walking on trees. She walked slowly and carefully at first, she fell multiple times of course until she could get the correct amount of chakra put in the bottom of her feet, which was a common problem faced by beginners who are learning walking on trees. They cannot get their chakra to be balanced for them to walk on objects as they either put too much chakra or too little chakra. However, she showed great progress and was able to walk on trees in the course of two days.

She went to the Konoha library each day in order to study about Ninjutsu and how chakra operates. She would go to the training ground and train to test out the information that she read in the library. She was a fast learner and would master the techniques that she learned in the matter of days, although they were basic techniques. After her efforts in training, she showed great progress in the academy that her teachers were amazed as it wasn't the level of an average academy student or an excellent one for that matter. She was at high Genin level approaching Chūnin level at the age of nine. This was not an easy feet for a young girl, she reached that level thanks to her hard work and determination for achieving her goal no matter what and it paid off.

She showed signs of mastery of chakra control as well as Bukijutsu. She had pinpoint aim and it was noted by her sensei that "she can cut off a fly's wing with a kunai while being meters away." this quote was a sign of her skill in using weaponry. She also displayed great stamina and will to fight. And, she had very high chakra reserves for someone at her age. Her chakra control combined with her chakra reserves would make Ninjutsu a walk in the park when she gets older. She maintained her perfect performance in tests. Fūrin was getting attention from her teachers and classmates, which encouraged her to continue the hard work. She wanted to please her parents and show them that she is a strong Kunoichi. She was sure that they would some day acknowledge her skill.

She kept her hard training for almost a year. She trained each day and built up experience from that training. She got much better as she progressed in her practice and had Jōnin level chakra control at the age of ten. This showed how much of a genius Fūrin was, but most of her skills came from hard work and effort rather than just lying around and depending on pure talent. By then, it was time for the graduation exam where the academy students become Genin. Fūrin was expected to be the first one to graduate as high hopes were riding on her. She wasn't nervous as she was confident in her abilities and by that time Fūrin's cockiness began to appear as a factor of her personality. She was overly confident to the point where she didn't care about any challenge of any sort as she believed that she could succeed no matter what and that was the result of the praising of her teachers and classmates. The exam was doing the transformation jutsu. It was an easy academy level technique and of course, Fūrin graduated the exam ease. On that day, she became a Genin and received the headband with Konoha's mark on it. This was wonderful news for her and it got her very excited and happy. She couldn't wait to show her father the new position that she acquired.

She got back home and walked in to see where her father was. She searched for him allover the house until she finally found him. She told him about her promotion to Genin expecting him to congratulate her and make her feel like she had done something. Instead, he wasn't surprised and noted that Genin is one of the low ranks in the shinobi rankings. He said that it was a news not worth mentioning. This struck Fūrin hard as she was expecting a friendlier reaction from her father. Yet, he took all of her hard work and stomped on it ruthlessly. She was very sad as she did all of that in order to prove herself to her father and her efforts went in vain. She stayed awake that night and wondered what she was going to do to please her father. She convinced herself that he was right and that she needed to reach a higher rank in order to prove herself. She used her sadness as fuel to train and get better by becoming a stronger Kunoichi.

Life as a Genin
Fūrin became a Genin and was assigned to a four-man squad on the following day. She was waiting in class for her teammates as the room was empty. She was excited to meet her new teammates and sensei. She was sure that she was going to surpass her teammates with ease and by that she thought that it would cause her no effort. This shows how cocky she became and how confident she was. The door opened slightly as a white-haired fellow entered. He had a confidant look on his face and he was very relaxed, he said one small thing while rolling his eyes toward Fūrin "Yo". He seemed to pay no attention to her and in general he ignored her superiority. She nagged him about his carelessness, but he didn't seem to care. He then told her of his name it was ... Sosuke. She never forgot how chilled and cool he was that day.

A few minutes later, they both heard the sound of someone running in the hall. Fūrin looked towards the door while Sosuke rolled his eyes as they both saw a red-haired guy running inside the room. He seemed to be energetic and when asked for the reason of running, he said that he was afraid to be late. He introduced himself and he said his name was Hosshin. He seemed like a rude impolite reckless guy who acted cool and calm. He had this smirk on his face that was a sign of arrogance. The sensei came in shortly after, he said his name was Takeshi. He was the leader of the four-man squad and their teacher, they then proceeded to get to know each other by asking questions about each other like goals, life, personality, likes, dislikes. Fūrin shared her goal of becoming a Daimyō in order to get attention, then she was commented on by Sosuke who described her goal to be "shallow". He thought that being a Daimyō in order to get attention is a worthless goal that gives humanity and the shinobi world no progress. He seemed to have a grown-up mindset, despite being eleven. Fūrin was made at Sosuke for belittling her goal and she wanted to fight him in order to beat him up for mocking her. However, she saved that will to fight for another time.

The Test
After they were introduced to each other, it was time to take the test in order to become Genin. It was the bell test since Takeshi was inspired by Kakashi and he heard that Hiruzen Sarutobi used that test with the three Sennin. He took them to the training ground and explained the rules of the test to see the most skilled amongst the three and to know if they are willing to work together. He was going to pass them no matter what the results of the test were, he was just doing that to see if they are skilled enough to catch the bells. And, he wanted to know the fighting style of each one of them. They stood in the training grounds as the test began. Fūrin went into a good spot for hiding in order to attack at the right moment. Surprisingly, Sosuke and Hosshin didn't attempt to hide or run. Instead, they went for direct combat with their sensei. Fūrin decided that she will wait until they tire each other and attack in the right moment. However, her plan didn't work as Sosuke and Hosshin managed to snatch the two bells when they worked together and attacked as one. Of course, Takeshi was going easy on them. Hosshin's fighting style was more of a direct approach as he went all out destructive attacks with his fire release. While Sosuke was more of an opportunity taker. He waits until the opponent is open and then he attacks, he uses a more intelligent style of fighting than Hosshin. In the end, Fūrin was the one tied to the stump. She was very mad as she thought that she would be the only one capable of snatching the bells.

She couldn't believe that she was going to be sent back to the academy while the other two would succeed. Takeshi then revealed that it was merely a test of skill rather than a win or go back to the academy sort of test. She was relieved that she won't return to the academy, but she felt like a weakling who lost to Hosshin and Sosuke. She was mad since she wanted to defeat Sosuke in hand-to-hand combat as she believed that she was better than him by a long shot. She noticed that the two had found out their affinities already as Hosshin had fire affinity, which was normal for someone from the Kagutsuchi Clan. And, Sosuke had water affinity, which was the element that Fūrin desired. She was mad since he had that element and she wanted to know her affinity. She was almost sure that she would get water release. She couldn't wait to know.

Affinity of Wind
Fūrin asked Takeshi how she could know what was her affinity. She told him that she noticed that her teammates already discovered their affinities. Takeshi replied to her by saying that she would have to use chakra litmus papers that can distinguish the affinity of the person by flowing chakra in them. He told her that he would bring some the following day. She was so happy and she wished for water release, going back home she looked at the Hokage monuments and stared at Tobirama's face as she left and went back home. She wanted to be just like him. She loved Water Release to the point where she didn't think she would get any other element beside it. She slept that day and woke up the next morning full of energy as she ran towards the training grounds at the time that her sensei told her. She went there and found him waiting for her. He then showed her the chakra litmus papers as he explained to her the reaction that should occur with the litmus paper when she flows her chakra in them. Hosshin and Sosuke were watching as they wanted to know what affinity will she have. She grabbed one of the litmus papers and flowed her chakra in it. She waited for the paper to get wetted and after a couple of seconds, the paper was sliced in half. That indicated that she had wind affinity.

Having Wind affinity made Fūrin outraged as she was waiting for Water affinity. She couldn't believe it. She was very sad that and she started crying. Surprisingly, Sosuke was the one who asked her for the reason of her sadness to having Wind affinity. She told him that she wanted Water affinity in order to be like Tobirama Senju who was a master of Ninjutsu. Sosuke put his hand on her shoulder and told her words that she would never forget. "You don't need water affinity to be like Tobirama, Tobirama wasn't great due to his affinity to water. Tobirama was great because he worked hard to be the best. So embrace it, you have wind affinity, but who knows maybe you can surpass even Tobirama's greatness with your wind." these words affected Fūrin as she viewed Sosuke to be an arrogant foolish guy. However, his speech made her realize that Water affinity did not make Tobirama powerful, Tobirama made Tobirama powerful. She was convinced that she would be able to surpass Tobirama with her Wind affinity, she was resolved to do so. Although she was thankful to Sosuke, she didn't want to show it.

The following day she went to the Konoha library and searched for Wind jutsu, she then found out that there isn't much Wind jutsu thanks to it being rare especially in the land of fire. That made her feel unique in a sense. She took the Wind jutsu that she could find and started training to perform them. As well as the Body Flicker Technique. She decided that she would become a master of Wind release and a specialist in Ninjutsu. She knew how her fighting style would be. It would rely on speed as well as Wind techniques. She would also practice on the speed of performing those Wind jutsu in order to get the time intervals to be very low to the point where the speed of the jutsu is too great to be dodged. She also started training in Bukijutsu and Kenjutsu as she knew that wind can enhance weaponry making them very sharp. She was also interested in the sharpness and cutting power of Wind techniques. She wanted to figure out a way to concentrate the cutting power of Wind in order to slice through hard objects with ease. She assumed that for her to be a Wind master, she would have to have complete control over wind and every power of it. Powers like wind currents, air resistance and the pressure of air. She knew that if she could develop a jutsu that would control those three powers, she would be able to master Wind release. However, she needed to get familiar with Wind release before she could create a jutsu of her own and that's why she grabbed all the Wind jutsu she could from the library.

She spent most of her time on the training ground practicing Wind techniques. She would stop to rest and then get back to practicing. After a while, she learned to accept her affinity to Wind. Actually, she started liking Wind release as she saw the true power that lied in Wind release. However, what she viewed as true power was merely a very small portion of what she was going to discover. She only saw Wind as the element that is used for cutting and can be used defensively in some situations. What she didn't know is that Wind release had much more to it than that. One of the first jutsu that she learned was Wind Release Stream, which was basically blowing wind out of her mouth. This was one of the wind powers that she wished for, which was wind currents. She knew that if she wanted to learn about Wind currents, she needed to master this technique. She practiced this technique a lot, it was an easy technique since it didn't require any hand seals. She later learned that air currents are made by the change in temperature of the air, which was one of the starting points of the manipulation of air currents.

Fūrin realized that she needed to manipulate the heat of the air to a certain degree if she wanted to manipulate air currents and that is what she started practicing on. By that time, she could already increase the pressure of the air to a certain level with her chakra, but it was limited. She kept practicing and practicing to alter the temperature of the air until she got some sort of weak air bending where she could make breezes of wind as she wished. She could manipulate them to a limited degree where she didn't reach the strength of free manipulation then. She showed great progress in it. She also practiced chakra control every day as she knew that chakra control could save someone lots of chakra when doing techniques. If she could reach perfect chakra control, it would improve her style of fighting greatly.

A Challenge
Fūrin was building confidence in her abilities. She was improving greatly in the use of Wind release and she was very proud of herself. She had weak current and pressure manipulation by that time. She thought that she was ready for a challenge and she saw no one better than Sosuke to challenge her. She went to him and asked him for a battle between teammates, more of a spare. Sosuke's relaxed personality made him want to say, "no", but he accepted her challenge because she kept insisting that he should challenge her. They would meet the following day in the training grounds and challenge each other. And, that was what exactly happened, they met the following day at the training ground. Hosshin went there too in order to see the result of the battle between those two. They began the fight. Fūrin went straight offense and disregarded the strength of her opponent. She tried knocking him off balance using her wind currents and wind techniques. However, all of her attempts failed as Sosuke didn't let her dictate the pace of the battle, keeping in mind he was playing defensive. In the end, she ended up losing most of her chakra and left herself open for a water release attack that Sosuke pulled off, which lead to her losing the match. She was very angry as she thought she was going to win that one, but she was determined to do better. Sosuke didn't care for the victory of the match as he saw it as a waste of time and energy, but he didn't tell Fūrin that.

The Chūnin Exams
The Chūnin exams were hosted once more in Konoha. Genin were starting to get ready for the exams as they all strived to get promoted to Chūnin. Fūrin was confidant in her abilities as always, but this time she was confidant in the strength of her teammates as well. She was pumped when she heard that the exams were approaching as she was waiting for them with eagerness. Sosuke's reaction was rather cold as he didn't care much for the exams, he was extremely relaxed and not worried. This irritated Fūrin a little since she did not like Sosuke's attitude. The three Genin were informed about the exams from their Sensei. He gave them words of advice before they went on to participate in the exams. They went the following day to start the exams and it started out with a written test so all the Genin had to report to the class in which the test was going to take place. The three sat down in their desks as they took the test. Each one of them found his unique way of cheating on the test and in the end, they all passed.

The next challenge was the forest of death, which was the hard part of the exam. Each Genin team had one scroll, it is either "Earth Scroll" or "Heaven Scroll". And, each team needed to get the scroll that it doesn't possess and report to the main building. This should eliminate more than half of the competitors considering that half would be disqualified as they would get their scroll taken away, and the others would die in the forest because of the dangers that lie there. It was an extremely dangerous test and considering that Fūrin's team was the youngest, it seemed that they didn't have much of a chance, but the truth is the opposite since the team consisted of absolute geniuses. And, the test began. All the competitors rushed into the forest of death awaiting their preys. Fūrin, Hisshon and Sosuke went in themselves and started discussing the strategy that they were going to follow. Fūrin said to wait until the competitors tire and then they can attack. Sosuke disagreed since he thought that it might be a situation like the bells situation where Fūrin waited, but in the end she couldn't get a bell. Sosuke and Hisshon agreed on the direct approach while staying together as a team in order to get the scrolls. They thought that it would be better to eliminate any Genin they could as it would ease the competition on the following stage.

They jumped from tree to tree waiting for their next challenge while keeping in mind that they had to be patient in order to avoid any ambushes. They finally confronted their first opponents as they were approached by them in an attempt to attack Fūrin as a surprise attack. Fūrin was going to die if it wasn't for Sosuke who sensed them and quickly used a water technique to knock them away from her. Hisshon then stopped and the three Genin faced the opposing team. Sosuke knew by the approach of the opposing team that it was a kill or be killed situation. He needed to protect his teammates and ensure the success of his mission, which was to get the scroll. Fūrin's mindset was to test her skills in order to see if she can beat the other Genin or not. Fūrin immediately threw weapons at them like Kunai and Shuriken, amongst them was a hidden explosive tag. She then exploded the tag, which lead to the death of one of the Genin. Sosuke took care of another one and Hisshon killed the third one. They searched the three Genin and found out that they had an Earth Scroll, which luckily matched their Heaven Scroll. They succeeded in getting the other scroll and it was time to head to the main building.

While heading to the main building, Fūrin saw how good Sosuke was as the leader. He led them into fetching the required scroll and saved her life. He dealt with the situations with high-speed and set up a strategy for them to go about that stage of the exam. They made their way to the building, luckily they did not face any other teams. They were the third team to enter the building. They were one of the good teams considering their age. Every other Genin team was at least one year older than them. Fūrin was sure that they had a chance of winning this, but she didn't know that they would all fight each other in the final round. Finally, the rest of the Genin came in the building and it was time to proceed to the next round. When they opened the scroll a Chūnin came out using the summoning technique and told them where to head on the next round of the Chūnin exams. They went to the place they were ordered to go. They found it to be a large arena with places that the crowd could stand on. Takeshi was waiting for them there. They went to their Sensei who congratulated them on their good work. Then, a Chūnin came out and announced how the final stage would go. They would meet in this arena after a month in order to have a tournament to see who is the strongest amongst them. They would be judged by their performance in that tournament and it would be decided if they deserved the promotion or not.

Fūrin was very satisfied that she made it to the final stage, but she realized that she would have to face Sosuke or Hisshon eventually as she was sure that they would face her in the final round. She needed to train in that month and get sharper to be able to beat Sosuke and Hisshon. She managed to learn some wind techniques during that time and she got more used to using them. And, it was time for the final round of the Chūnin exams. All the competitors went to the arena and were ready for the final stage. They all trained and rested during that month. Sosuke himself trained well in order to win the tournament. The Genin stepped in the stadium and waited to be called on. And, one-by-one the Genin started battling each other and as it was predicted, Fūrin faced Sosuke in the final round. Unfortunately, Sosuke managed to squeeze the win and defeat Fūrin, although she could inflict a wound on his left arm. In the end, the win went to Sosuke. However, because of her great performance, Fūrin was promoted to Chūnin. Soon the sadness of defeat turned to joy as she was promoted. She worked hard and she felt like she deserved that promotion. She was promoted by the age of eleven years old. Sosuke was promoted as well since he was obviously the strongest competitor in the tournament.

Fūrin was one hundred percent sure that it would get a reaction out of her father since she got a relatively high ranking for her age. She went to her father and told him of her new position as Chūnin. He didn't care one bit. That was the moment where Fūrin realized that she couldn't get her father's attention. He just didn't like, she realized that he never would. It took her about a month to embrace that fact as it was harsh. During that month, she refused to go on missions nor talk to anyone, she just sat in her room. After that month, she decided that she didn't care anymore about the opinion of her father. She didn't strive to please him anymore. She decided that she would do actions for her own personal gains and forget about her selfish father who didn't care about her. And, that was the moment where she realized that she didn't care about him anymore either. This affected her personality greatly as she became more of a greedy person who did everything for her own gain and ... "Fun".

Life as a Chūnin
After getting over her selfish and foolish father, Fūrin started paying attention to her duties as a Chūnin. She found out that she was neglecting it during the time she needed to recover from her father's actions. However, she was ready to attend the missions and perform the duties of Chūnin. She attended to the Hokage's office as she was summoned, she was informed that she was going to go on a mission with a few other Chūnin and Jōnin. The leader of the mission would be Genji who was nineteen at that time. They were all going to go on a mission to the borders of the land of fire to take care of some bandits. This was a C-Rank mission and it was Fūrin's first mission where she had to fight. However, it was a relatively easy mission that she could take care of and it would be great for testing out her skills. So, she went with her fellow Chūnin and Jōnin who were all older than her considering that she was eleven at the time.

A Journey To The Borders
The squad made its way to the borders. Genji was given orders by the Hokage to watch Fūrin and see her strength on that mission since he wanted to know her potential as she was the youngest on the squad and one of the youngest Chūnin in Konoha's history. Depending on her performance on that mission, the Hokage would decide what missions he would give her, if she does well on those missions, she would be promoted. The team made their way to the borders and decided that they would take the sneaking approach. They managed to locate the position of the bandits. Genji asked Fūrin to get closer and attempt to fight the bandits. He would watch from close by and protect her if anything wrong were to occur. Fūrin accepted with no hesitation and she started sneaking towards the opponent. It was nighttime by then so she could use the darkness of the night as cover for her. She sneaked near the hideout not making any sound as of then. She located one of the bandits, he was drinking wine and he seemed wasted, she couldn't find anyone nearby. She wanted a lethal attack that would kill him with no sound.

She wanted a wind release attack in order to test her skill. She chose an attack that she had recently learned. It was Blade of Wind. She became good at using it, despite being an A-Rank technique. It was indeed that technique required for that situation. She prepared the technique and executed it with deftness as it hit the target's neck, chopping of his head. Genji was amazed by how she was not found by her opponent and managed to pull off an accurate attack like that. SHe then proceeded to sneak inside the hideout itself. There was a Hyūga alongside Genji, he asked him to see what she was doing and report it with extreme detail. Fūrin sneaked inside and walked in the hallway she then leaned to see if there was anyone in the other hallway. She located five bandits. She needed to know how to go about this as she wanted to kill them without causing any fuss. They were walking and giving their back to her location. One was following them from behind, but he was some distance away from them. The sneaked behind him and cut his throat with a kunai while giving no sound or indication of her location. It was a form of silent killing.

She then needed to deal with the other four. With precision, she threw four Kunai that hit the necks of the four bandits, killing them. And, there Fūrin's ability to use weaponry was displayed as she was very accurate in the placing of her Kunai. This was said with extreme detail by the Hyūga member to Genji who was amazed by the performance of the young girl. In the end, she eliminated all the bandits in the hideout. Although they weren't shinobi, it wasn't an easy thing to kill them without being noticed or even sensed, especially for a young girl like her. However, there were still flaws in her silent killing as she didn't walk correctly in order to be silent and she was somewhat slow when it came to killing them. Nonetheless, it was still an achievement. A full report of what happened was given to the Hokage as he was amazed by how that girl did all that. She was certainly a talent to be watched. It was almost a certainty that she would become a great Kunoichi one day, but they all had to wait to see how things turn out. It was a good start for her, a couple more missions like that and she would be promoted in no time.

Intensified Training
After the good performance that Fūrin displayed during her mission, she was emboldened to start training in order to hone her skills and augment her abilities. She requested a trip to the land of iron to train with the samurai on the art of Kenjutsu, which is using the sword in combat. The Hokage saw the talent in that little girl and he wanted to support it and so he did, he paid the samurai in the land of iron in order to train Fūrin in the art of using the sword. Her trip began. She travelled there and met her samurai sensei who was going to train her on the art of using the sword. She started training in Iaidō and many other Kenjutsu techniques that were unique to the samurai. She showed impressive skills in learning them and was one of the better students there. She stayed there for almost three years on a trip to mastery of Kenjutsu. She showed great progress in it. However, her training in Kenjutsu didn't prevent her from honing her Ninjutsu so she wouldn't get dull. After these years, she returned to Konoha once more with the new skills that she acquired.

She then started attending to her missions. She was assigned to B and C rank missions. She would get an A rank mission from time to time, but she goes with the company of a team. She succeeded in most of them and carried them out without fail. She then started to practice her Wind release. She got better at controlling currents and air pressure and could manipulate them more easily. She then started using her Wind release to get some altering in air resistance where she could increase it to a degree and decrease it to a degree. Little did she know that this was the beginning to the creation of a technique that would change the meaning of Wind mastery. She trained on controlling those three powers, which are currents, pressure and resistance. She trained on it day and night as she began to get better and better at using them. She then created her first technique, which was Severe Airwave. It was a technique that relied on air currents and surprisingly enough that technique came before the mother technique as it was not perfected then.

That technique was a D rank technique where she made use of the air currents and pressurization of air. She used them to fire compressed air from her palms. The strength of the air was determined by the pressure and the force she was using. That airwave could shatter rocks if fired with a specific pressure. It could also soften the ground. When she made this technique, she could fire that wave from any part of her body, which could act as a booster for speed if used right. It was also a good way to deflect projectiles if used with low pressure and it could decapitate the opponent if used with high pressure so it was a useful technique overall. It could be used on a large scale where it can shatter anything in its way. Fūrin's skills were improving at an alarming rate and her Wind manipulation was getting better every day. She even realized that herself. She needed to augment her abilities even more. So, she began concentrating on improving her manipulation over wind and its three powers. It was her main priority as she wanted to master that technique. She realized it would give her the advantage if she could execute it with very high-speed and that is what she trained to do. Gradually, her control over those three powers became stronger and she could manipulate them much easier then when she started out.

After spending weeks working only on her Wind manipulation, she finally learned the technique. She called it Air Domination. It was in her eyes the most efficient technique for a wind user as it grants the free manipulation of wind. The more she practiced that technique, the much better she got at it. She would move the currents faster and be able to alter the pressure and resistance more. She then started to research on the properties and effects of pressure on the body. She found out that the variation in pressure and altering it rapidly is deadly since it causes blood vessels to explode and the heart as well. It was the perfect setting for her jutsu. She started training on altering the pressure with speed. She reached a level where she could alter the pressure with extreme speed from high to low. After that, she created the technique called Wind Release: Blowing Disparity where the user alters the pressure of the air around the opponent, which will cause in their death in the matter of mere seconds. This technique was rather dangerous and it was a specialty of Fūrin. After all this intense training, Fūrin decided that she was going to concentrate on missions for a while before going back to creating techniques.

Escorting A Target
Fūrin was called to the office of the Hokage. The Hokage had a mission for her. She sat in the office as the Hokage told her the mission, the details and the goals. It turned out that she was going to escort a rich woman who claims to be targeted back to her village. The woman paid a very nice fee for the escorting, but she said that she wanted someone trustworthy in order to feel safe. The Hokage chose Fūrin and Genji to do that mission. Genji was still twenty four by that time. Fūrin accepted the mission, she felt honored that the Hokage chose her as a trustworthy Kunoichi. She then met with Genji before the mission and they discussed how they were going to go about it. They were walking in the streets of Konoha, Genji told her that he was going to stay by that woman and defend her, while she would attack the opponents if they come by. Fūrin agreed since she saw herself as an attacker not a defender. They sat around and talked a bit. After a couple of hours, they were called to the Hokage's office as it was time for the mission. They went there and met the woman. That woman was ... overweight. She was bad-tempered or in other words rude. She treated Genji and Fūrin as if they were pests and that she was more important than them. This got Fūrin angry and she almost attacked the woman as she was cocky herself and being treated in a bad way hurt her ego. However, she managed to maintain her temper.

The three of them went directly to the exit of the village. Fūrin couldn't stand that woman, but she tried to act cool. While Genji truly did not care one bit about her. They walked for a while and the woman started panting and whining about the distance. Fūrin was irritated by her, but she said nothing. Genji kept telling her that they were getting closer in order to shut her up. They kept walking for some time. The woman asked to rest for a while as she was getting very tired. She lied beside a tree as she panted. Little did she know, she was being watched at that very moment. The person who was targeting her hired shinobi in order to do his dirty work. The shinobi were watching her closely. Genji could sense them, but he waited for the right moment and acted like he did not notice them. Fūrin sensed another chakra presence, she couldn't pinpoint it as she wasn't at Genji's level in sensory, but she could feel a presence. She tried telling Genji about it, he told her that he knew and asked her to remain calm until a hostile action is taken, he told her that the woman's safety is their first priority. They were whispering to each other in order for the woman to not hear them, they stopped as if they kept at it longer, the shinobi would feel that they spotted them. There were four shinobi. They were more of mercenaries than shinobi. They knew Ninjutsu quite well. They hid behind the bushes and waited for the right moment to strike. The woman lied beside the tree, not realizing what was happening around her or what was about to happen.

After about two minutes of sitting there, the shinobi decided that they would try to attack the woman as they thought that Genji and Fūrin weren't paying attention. However, Genji and Fūrin were keeping a close eye on them, they just acted as if they didn't realize their presence. One of the shinobi threw a Kunai with pinpoint accuracy towards the woman's head. The Kunai just came out of the bushes and targeted the woman. In a split second, Fūrin managed to use Severe Airwave to knock the Kunai off its path by using low pressured air. Fūrin wished that she didn't stop the attack as she hated the woman, but it was her duty so she had to carry it out. Genji stood there as he observed Fūrin skill that grew since the last time he went on a mission with her. Genji then stood by the woman in order to protect her and let Fūrin do her job. The shinobi came out of the bushes as they surely were discovered after that last attack. The woman was very scared as she hid behind Genji. The shinobi told them to give up the woman quietly and there wouldn't be any problems. Of course, they refused. The shinobi then started attacking. Fūrin drew her sword and used Body Flicker Technique in order to move with great speed towards one of the shinobi. She then used her chakra flow to utilize Samurai Sabre Technique to sharpen her sword. She then attempted a stab to the target's abdomen. She succeeded and one of them was killed.

She then found herself surrounded by three shinobi. She managed to do some quick movements in order to kill two of them with her Kenjutsu. The last one was standing behind her with a distance. He spat fire at her after weaving some hand seals. The fire wasn't big, but her clothes were caught on fire, she had to take her jacket off in order to not get roosted. She then faced her opponent. She knew that he was a fire user, which put her at a disadvantage as she was a wind user and wind is weak against fire. She had to use another method of attacking. She found herself running away from his constant attacks of fire. She couldn't believe that she did not develop a counter for wind's weakness to fire. She kept dodging the fire techniques until she had an idea. She could increase the fire intensity, but it needed perfect timing to do what she planned. When the shinobi made hand seals, she knew that he was going to use fire as he used it since the start of the battle. She then used Air Domination in order to increase the pressure around him to a high-level. As soon as he spat out the fire technique, it caused an explosion thanks to the high pressured air that surrounded her opponent. It resulted in his death. The threat was eliminated, but she thought about her weakness to fire and how to solve that problem. She would go to study it as soon as she would return to the village. Nonetheless, the escorting went smoothly as no other shinobi tried to kill the woman and they managed to escort her safely to her desired location. Then, they returned to the village.

After they returned to the village, they went directly to the Hokage's office in order to get their reward and the praise they deserve. Genji talked about how well Fūrin did on that mission and how she dealt with the opponents in his report. The Hokage was astounded with the skills of that young Kunoichi. He was thinking of promoting her to ANBU so that she could be under his control directly. He praised her and gave her a reward for her efforts. Fūrin was happy as she succeeded in her mission, but she wasn't satisfied as she realized that she had a weakness to fire. She wanted to overcome that weakness so she started studying fire and how it worked. She figured out that fire combustion is dependent on the presence of Oxygen gas. She thought that if she was able to get rid of that gas, she could put an end to her weakness to fire. SHe realized that Oxygen gas is present in the atmosphere, which she already controls. If she could concentrate her control to a molecular level, she could control Oxygen gas. However, she realized that it would take her a decade of studying and practicing at least in order to control the molecules of the atmosphere surrounding her. She was willing to devote time for it as she realized that controlling the atmosphere molecules would benefit her and enhance her strength as it would give her the advantage over her opponents. That encouraged her to delve into practicing that technique and perfecting it.

Promotion to ANBU
After a succession of successful missions, Fūrin gained trust from the Hokage and the shinobi of Konoha. She carried out her missions without fail and gained the trust she deserved from others. One day, she was summoned to the Hokage's office. The Hokage said it was an important matter. She did not know the reason for the summoning. She entered the Hokage's office and she was asked to take a seat and she did. The Hokage started talking about her great achievements and how he was proud of her. She was very happy to get that praise from the Hokage. She was then told that she was going to be promoted to an ANBU as the Hokage wanted her by his side and he thought that her rank wasn't a good indicator of her abilities. Fūrin agreed right away. She was very joyful that day as she felt that her training paid off. She was getting ready for her life as a member of the ANBU. She had plans to take a high rank in it as she was aiming for the captain position. She wanted to find her talent in the ANBU as well as her specialty. She was very good at killing her opponents quickly and effortlessly thanks to her style of attack. She used very simple attacks that cost very little chakra yet they were very effective. She fitted the role of an assassin. A lethal kunoichi she was. She spent all day daydreaming after hearing the news of her promotion. She was fifteen years old when she got that promotion. It might not have been the youngest age to get promoted to ANBU, but it was considered that she spent a couple of years outside Konoha. If she had spent her entire life in Konoha, she might have been promoted at the age of twelve.

Life as an ANBU
As mentioned before, Fūrin was so proud of herself after the promotion. She was motivated to do her best in order to impress and get a good reputation. She knew that it meant training hard in order to surpass her mates in the squad that she was put in. She requested to be put in the assassination squad as she saw herself as a great assassin. It also meant that she was going to get the most dangerous missions, but she couldn't care less about that. Confident in her skill, Fūrin started adapting to her fellow ANBU members. They all observed her skill and proficiency at a young age. She reminded them of the genius Itachi Uchiha as she was very skilled at a young age. They called her "The Breeze of Death" or "Death Breeze". She earned that name thanks to her unique fighting style. She was known to have the ability to slice up her opponent with great speed yet gentleness in attacks. She could slice almost anything with her expertise in wind release and wind related augmentations, which involved weapons and the sharpness of her wind techniques. She had the reputation of slicing her opponent without using any muscular force, but she resorted to force when the situation needed it. She was also named by other names like "Fūrin of The Body Flicker" thanks to her extreme experience in using the body flicker technique where she could evolve it to another level of speed, exceeding the initial speed of the technique by multiple times. She made her own variation of it where she could increase the speed of any part of her body using Chakra flow.

Fūrin acknowledged that she would need great experience in assassination to become a captain. And, being the captain of the assassination squad was no walk in the park. She realized that she needed to work on her stealth skills. She needed to know how to hide from her opponent efficiently and how to fool them in order to use one lethal attack that would instantly kill them. She was called "Death Breeze" as she could do that. She could kill her opponent with one swift move and without using muscular power. Fūrin did not want to increase her muscle strength as she saw that as a manly trait and she wanted to keep the appeal of being a female. Fūrin found that she wanted to prove herself and prove how a female could be stronger than a male. Male dominance ruled most of the world that time and females were viewed as weaklings, but what encouraged her to pursue the goal of proving that a female is not less than a male is that her father ignored her as he wanted a son and he was given a daughter. That made her resolved to prove how men could be weaker than women. She decided to do it in her own way as she didn't want to imitate men and become physically strong like them to prove her point. Instead, she decided that she would prove herself while still keeping her feminine side. She decided that she would use a more swift and gentle approach where she depended on speed and most of all, chakra enhancements where she used chakra in order to boost her performance to cover up the gap of the absence of physical strength. She could use her chakra to enhance her speed to the point where she could surpass the best Taijutsu master and to strengthen herself for attacks. Her perfect chakra control and flow helped her achieve that level of efficiency in chakra enhancement techniques.

As mentioned before, Fūrin realized that she would need stealth skills besides all that to become a good assassin. She started practicing techniques like Hiding with Camouflage Technique and Hiding in Air Technique as well as Silent Killing, which played a big part in enhancing her assassin skills. She was close to Zabuza's level in silent killing where she made no sound at all and could slit her opponent's throat in an instant without them even knowing what happened. She performed her attacks with great speed and no sound at all. She used multiple stealth techniques to hide her presence and was successful in doing so as she was never found during her training. She got better and better to the point where she was a master of stealth techniques and could easily kill her opponents. Her skill with weaponry made her an even better assassin as she could take out her opponents from long range and do fatal damage to them. Her skill with weaponry encouraged her to use weaponry with her wind release. She was already using it to enhance the shrapness of her weapons, but she decided to take it to the next level where she could make weapons out of pure wind. And, for that she needed to solidify the air by compressing it and that is what she did, she could form an instant kunai or shuriken, which were made out of wind and sharper than ordinary kunai. Fūrin was gradually getting a reputation amongst the ANBU. She was known to be very strong even for those who were older than her. She was also known for her ability to sneak up on anyone no matter how much he was skilled in locating the opponent, even the finest of sensors couldn't locate her. She was indeed a master of stealth.

The Spy
When Fūrin was seventeen, rumors began spreading about an organization of criminals. The organization was causing trouble in the shinobi world as it was composed of S and A ranked criminals. The number of members of the organization is twenty one members. They called themselves Konran (混乱, Chaos). Their target was to destroy the great nations and dominate the shinobi world. They have been out there for about five years and they managed to make lots of mayhem in the shinobi world and they needed to be stopped. The Hokage took the responsibility of choosing the right shinobi for the job. This time it wasn't a shinobi it was a kunoichi and it was indeed Fūrin. The Hokage called her to his office and told her that she was going on the most important mission of her life. She was surprised by the Hokage's words as it was pretty big to say she was going on her most important mission. She waited impatiently to hear what the Hokage had to say. He told her all about the organization and their objective. She expected that she would target the members and kill them one by one, but instead she was told to join the organization as a spy. She was very surprised at that request. He told her what she was going to do, which was getting information about everything in the organization including its members and everything about their abilities and for the final objective, she needed to kill the leader himself with a quick attack when he was alone, she would then escape. The organization would get confused and wouldn't know what to do after the loss of their leader and it would make an opening for Konoha to attack them when they are puzzled. If they get suspicious about her she would die instantly and she needed to pull off and escape at the right time, attack on the right time, speak at the right time and ... breath at the right time. That mission needed to be done with extreme precision or she would die. She also needed to get the trust of the organization. The Hokage said that it might be too much for her to handle and he gave her the option to resign, but she decided to take the mission. That made the Hokage surprised and he promised her a reward if she succeeded in that mission.

Fūrin went back home, she was getting prepared to go on the mission three days after. She was very frightened as she knew that one wrong move would cost her life. She prepared her weapons and equipment and changed her outfit. She also left her Konoha headband at home. She closed the door slowly while looking back on the crest engraved on the headband, the Konoha crest. She informed the Hokage that she was going on her mission, he wished her the best of luck. He gave her information about where the hideout might be according to their information. She then set off to go there. She was running a very long distance, her journey to the hideout took her three hours of body flicker running, but to her it seemed like ten minutes as she knew that her life was on the line. She went there and she found herself in a dark forest, trees were scary-looking and fog covered the place. She then could see an entrance, but it was blurred because of the fog, she then saw a figure directed towards her, it was indeed a kunai. She managed to evade it, but she almost got killed since she couldn't see well as the fog covered her vision. She knew that she wasn't alone as someone had to throw the kunai. She was ready to fight, she let out a huge wave of air that went outwards, which blew the fog away. She then saw a handsome-looking fellow who was standing in front of her, he asked her why she came and she told him that she was there to join their organization. He told her that the organization wasn't for kids, but he praised her for dodging the kunai even though the fog was blurring her vision. She then said that she was a weaponry specialist and in order to have good aim, she needed to have good eyes. He laughed and told her to follow him. She couldn't believe that it was that easy to join the organization and that made her stay on her guard in order to not get killed easily. She followed him and waited to see where he would lead her.

They then went inside the hideout as they walked through many halls, she didn't know where he was taking her, but she kept her guard up. They then walked inside a room, which was full of people. There were twenty people in the room. One of them was sitting on a chair in the end of the room. Everyone in the room looked at her, she realized that she was sitting amongst all the members of the organization. They all looked at the man who escorted her as if they wanted to ask him who she was or why was she there. However, they did not speak a word. The man then walked to the guy sitting at the end of the room and knelt down as he addressed him as "Goro-sama". Fūrin then realized that he was the leader of the organization. The man then told Goro that she wanted to join the organization and that he escorted her to the hideout in order for Goro to look at her and see if she was worth the trouble. Goro then addressed the man as "Haru" he told Haru that he needed to test her skills as he didnot have enough room for a new person in the organization. Goro seemed like a playful guy who enjoyed playing mind games. He was a tall man with dark soft hair and a decent muscular built. He then escorted her and Haru to a secret room underground, it was meant for training. Haru was confused about the reason that they were taken to the training grounds. Goro then revealed that Haru and "that girl" would fight in a death match, the winner would stay in the organization while the loser would die. Fūrin was surprised that Goro was willing to sacrifice one of his men. When she asked him about the reason, he said "I do not have a place for weaklings". Haru wasn't phased by the decision as he got used to the brutality of the leader. All of the members attended in the room in order to watch how Fūrin would do. Fūrin knew that she had to prove herself in order to get into the organization so it put something of a mental pressure on her. =Appearance=
