Sukoshi Kawa

Introduction
Sukoshi Kawa is a young girl born in the land of Demons, but raised in the Land of Water. She was taught and rasied by her older sister Tomiko, who was actually the missing Nin, Mitsuhide Azai. Learning ninjutsu from her sister and being trained since she was three years old Sukoshi spent her life as a mercenary ninja and learned the ways of the battlefield through first hand experience.

Appearance
Sukoshi stands a stunning five feet and three inches for a 12 year old. This is due to her having her growth spurt early and has already reached her max height. Her body is covered with muscles from training, specifically her abs as she works them out every day at the start of the day. Her black blue hair runs down to her mid back and her skin is a milky white color. She has dark blue monolid eyes and a rounded button nose. Most of the time she wears a deceptively simple white shirt with a long sleeve dark shirt underneath it. Protecting her legs is a pair of worn jean pants and covering her feet is your standard blue ninja sandals.

Sukoshi prefers to go out looking like a common person. Though her choice in picking pants makes her stand out among the normal asian style clothing worn by most people. In her right pocket she keeps a kuni to defend herself and in her left she keeps a few explosive tags. Hanging out her back pocket is a white which unfolds to hide summoning to bring out her ninja tools.

Personality
The best way to describe Sukoshi is quite and intervened. She prefers to simply sit back and listen to people rather than talk and express herself. However it should be noted that Sukoshi is not a door mat. If somebody does something or say something she does not like she will get them back or quickly correct them. Normally this is done with a quick and frightening glare. However if Sukoshi is out for blood she will simply smile and nod her head and then get them back at a later date.

Sukoshi's smile should be associated with violence. Sukoshi rarely smiles, but when she does it is usually followed by a attack. It is one of the critical flaws her sister Tomiko pointed out to her. Before she does any form of retaliation she has a bad habit of smiling beforehand. Now it should be noted that she can smile, but subconsciously chooses not to. When she is acting as somebody else or placing up a act for the sake of a mission she will smile all the day long to put up a act. However once the mission is done an things are back to normal she is as expressionless as a tree. This is due to the training Tomiko put her through as a child. She was trained to not show her emotions or to show any sign of weakness. Emotions where seen as a sign of weakness.

Returning back to Sukoshi's love of getting back at people, the young maiden does not usually deal with people in a direct manner. She will not simply attack them in the street. Instead she prefers to sneak around in the night and do her deeds under the cover of night. Depending on the degree in which the person has wronged or angered her the maiden's response will be different. A person who ticked her off she might simply steal from them or destroy there property. A person that pressed her the wrong way she might kill them in there sleep or someone they care out. She only does that in extreme situations though. This would be seriously hurting her, her sister, children, or anybody she deems to be vulnerable and that the person committing the act deserves it.

Another thing of note is that Sukoshi has a strong distrust of leaf ninja. This is due to her sister Tomiko telling her that leaf ninja killed there parents and have been training her to be wary of them. Where they move and work they rarely see or meet leaf ninja, but when they do she treats them like dirt. She does not talk to them, aid them, and even will go out her way to just make there life difficult. However she never crosses the line, where a ninja would mark her as a threat. She knows better than to pick fights for no reason at all.

Sukoshi soft spoken personality does not extend to her sister. She will talk to her sister all day long if she allows her too. Most of the time she gets her social interaction out with her before hand. It is strangers that she distrust and will not associate with. This is mainly due to her training at a young age. She was taught to suspect everyone and the only real person she could trust was her sister. So she keeps a eye on everyone and always looks out for traps, poisons, or people recording information on her.

As I stated before Sukoshi is not one for direct confrontation. This is also due to her training. Sukoshi was trained to be more of a watch dog ninja than a out right combat fighter. Her sister Tomiko told her to never underestimate her opponent and always move to find out there weakness. She does not deal with problems head on because she was taught to go around them. If she takes the problem at a different angle she could find a solution that is not only less cost effective, but also more advantageous for her.

In battle Sukoshi is almost completely different. When she fights the meek appearance goes away and is replaced with a more violent and aggressive style. She is a firm believer that offense is the best defense and moves to keep her opponents on ther toes. If she lets them strike back then she runs the risk of being injured or her sister being injured. She prefers to take the kill and eliminate her targets as swiftly as possible.

On the terms of romance Sukoshi is a sworn asexual. As Sukoshi grew up she saw her sister chase after women like a dog in heat. She would spend time in brothels and talk all the time about chasing tail. This action, of a women being so loss, bothered Sukoshi a lot, mainly due to the horrible rumors spread by the innkeepers she would stay with during her youth. This made the maiden sear off against love and romantic relationships. Most of those feelings she has buried deep inside of her heart and kept them there. Ironically enough she is a big fan of romance novels. Sukoshi finds the emotions emulated in the characters to be foreign and there actions to be puzzling. This foreignness causes her to fall in love with the stories and makes her carry around a special bag dedicated to nothing more than books.

Taijutsu
Sukoshi uses a rare and unique form of Taijutsu that was taught to her by her sister Tomiko. The style was not widely known and even Tomiko herself does not truly use it. She heard of the style from a innkeeper when Sukoshi was young and decided that she was going to add it to her little sister innovatory once she got older. Most of the movements and moves in the style where drawn into a scroll and studied by Tomiko who later taught them to Sukoshi and taught her most of them. The more advance techniques where learned by Sukoshi herself by studing the scroll. The type of Taijutsu I am talking about is called White Tiger Boxing.

White Tiger Boxing is a type of nin taijutsu that was developed by a now extinct clan of ninjas. White Tiger Boxing uses all punches and not a single kick. The style focuses on quick foot work and powerful punches backed up by devastating chakra attacks. The style of fighting changes depending on the chakra element released by the user. In the case of Sukoshi that element is water. Most of the moves used in the style follow standard boxing moves seen in modern boxing. However these moves are taken up to 11 giving the user devastating power and essentially making almost every punch a Sunday Punch.

When Sukoshi fights she leeks her left foot slightly forward and her left arm partly extended. The right arm remains close to the bode and near her chin. This is the standard stance she uses when she fights. In this stance she bounces around a lot and is capable of changign directions on a fly. This stance is useful as it allows her to dodge incoming Ninjutus and Taijutus attacks on a dime and allows her to position herself in just the right place to get in a devastating punch.

The basics of the White Tiger Boxing changes depending on the element nature of the user. Certain elements have more offensive power while others gain a boost in defensive ability. Sukoshi is a water element release and as a result she uses the water version of the style. All versions of the White Tiger Boxing begin with the exoskeleton. When the user begins using the White Tiger style as a weapon they create a exoskeleton that follows their bones. The chakra originates from the hands and feet and spreads all over the body. Once the chakra covers what should be the skeleton it concentrates and takes on a visible state. It is here that the nature release is applied to the chakra. If the user has not unlocked there Nature release then they simply gain enhanced strength, durability, and small layer of armor, which is the chakra bones running across there skin.

With her nature release active Sukoshi gains the advantage of using hydraulics in her attacks and in her defense. When she punches a enemy she is able to amplify the force by using the compression force of water and the ability to use that same force to resit taking damage from blows. All her punches and kicks are unnamed with the exception of one.

Sukoshi Kage - Or Little Shadow, it is Sukoshi's Sunday punch, or her finishing blow. The Little Shadow is a simple boxing Smash. However the punch is backed by the full power of her entire exoskeleton of chakra. Once she finish the attack that chakra is lost as all of it is focused into one destructive attack. It is a real drainer, but it effective at taking out her enemies.

Ninjutsu
Sukoshi knows the basic three ninjutsu techniques. The transformation Jutsu, the replacement jutsu, and the cloning jutsu. Her more important Ninjutsu techniques are the ones she developed on her own and has refined over her time as a mercenary.

Suijin's Shield - Suijin's shield is Sukoshi's strongest and most unique jutsu. It is her ace in the hole and her favorite of all ninjutsu attacks. Suijin's Shield is only capable of being used when she is not using White Tiger Boxing. Instead of using her chakra to create the exoskeleton that allows her to fight she instead focus it all into a giant round shield that is three times her size. She then turns that chakra into water and uses her ninja arts to compress all of that water down. If there is water available in the area she will absorb water from her surroundings and feed it into her shield. If not then she will begin to pull water from the air or use more chakra. The size of the shield remains the same, but the amount of water she pressurizes into that small amount of space is not.

Using this techniques she creates a literal shield of compress water. The shield is strong enough to literally block almost any straight on attacks. If a attack comes with enough force to actually piece the surface tension then it is pushed back out by the pressure of the water escaping. The shield can also be used as a offensive weapon. Once she has made the shield she can shoot it forward causing it to ram into objects or people, and even trap people inside of it. Once trapped inside the person is crushed by the enormous pressure or drowned on the inside. It is similar to the water prison in the way it works. It should be noted that she can also drain the chakra of the individuals who are stuck inside of the shield just as well.

But wait there is more. Not only can the technique be used as a massive shield in order to block massive attacks, but it can also be compressed even more. She can compress the shield all the way down to a standard kite shield size object. The only difference is that it keeps its rounded shape. In this state the shield can be used as a bludgeoned weapon and can be used to beat her opponents down. It can also be used as, well a shield, and block incoming attacks. In desperate situations she can release her control on the water and allow the intense pressure to shoot out like a jet cutting through its targets with pure water pressure alone. One of her desperation moves is to throw the shield at her opponent and then completely release her control over the water. This will cause the shield to explode as the water erupts out destroying everything around.

It should be noted however that holding the water in that pressured state takes a massive amount of chakra. Especially when she takes it down into its kite shield form. In order to mediate this Sukoshi usually does not use the kite shield form unless she has a far lesser amount of water in he shield or she is in a desperate situation. However she will use a large amount of water if she plans to only use the shield and not the exoskeleton in her fights.  Marble Marble Jutsu - Marble Marble Jutsu is a move where Sukoshi creates balls of chakra around her and then turn them into water. That water is then compressed and turned into baseball size lumps of water. This technique can also be done a lot more effectively if there is water present in the battlefield. She can then simply take the water from the environment and shape it into the balls for her. This technique was born out of necessity. Sukoshi would often get into fights where she had to try to dodge and defend herself from multiple enemies at once. By creating these balls of chakra she is able to both defend and attacks as she uses them to block enemy attacks and slam into enemy flesh and bones. With enough speed and force Sukosh is capable of slamming one of these projectiles straight through a grown man's body.

Water Mace - Water Mace is a ninjutsu attack where Sukoshi forms water into a mace. She compresses a good amount of water down to form the head of her mace and uses the weapon in order to fight against her opponents. Water mace can also be turned into Water Hammer. Water Hammer is when she takes Water Mace up to 10 and forms a mallet with the water instead of a simple mace. She then slams the mallet down on her target crushing it with brute force. This move is often paired with either her exoskeleton technique.

Water Skates - Water Skates is a very simple ninjutsu technique. The move is pretty much Sukoshi placing water around her feet in order to remove friction from her legs. This allows her to skate across a substance almost as if she was on ice. It increases the speed in which she runs by two fold.

Cat Transformation Jutsu - When the going gets tough, and it always does Sukoshi falls back onto the basic transformation Jutsu. Most people see the Transformation Jutsu as a simple way to sneak into a places. Sukoshi sees it more as a weapon. She is able to transform her body into any shape she wants and use that shape in order to fight. So when Sukoshi is doing recon or fighting she likes to transform into animals. Her animal of choice is cats. In battle Sukoshi prefers to fight as her self. However in certain situations water could not be available, or water itself is highly ineffective. This is usually when she is facing a ninja who is more skilled at it than her or she is in a situation where water is at a major weakness. In order to counter this Sukoshi will transform into a Lion and do battle in that form. Fighting as a lion is very effective. It gives her the ability to claw and attack her opponents and inspires fear in them as well. Not only that, but she is also able to pull off several of her other jutsu while in this form. The Water Skates can be used to move faster and the Marble Marble can be used to add extra defense. He shield however is unavailable in this state as it requires far to much concentration. When spying around Sukoshi some times turns into a house hold cat and acts like she is one to remain hidden.

Suijin's Sword - Suijin's Sword is Sukoshi ultimate offensive techniques. This Jutsu combines both chakra flow and nature element to use. It does not sue any hand seals and can be down on the fly. This jutsu was thought up once Sukoshi witness a man digging a hole to form a well. She saw the man's drill and thought that she could use a attack like that. It is similar to Suijin's shield as she begins by compressing water and absorbing water from the environment. Instead of shoving it all into one place Sukoshi instead sends it into a spiral around her arm. The flowing water forms a gigantic drill that rips into her target and is powered by the speed and flow of the water. The size of the attack can vary depending on the amount of chakra and water Sukoshi has available. It can be the size of a back pack or the size of a car. It can even be taken up to 11 and be used as a giant spinning drill of death and rip through a mountain. However Sukoshi does not have the chakra for that and as a result it stays at moderate size.

Background
Sukoshi Kawa was born in a nuclear family in the land of Demons. Her mother was a seamstress and his father was a carpenter. She had a older sister who worked as a assistant to the priestess of the land. All of this information about his family Sukoshi never knew. When Sukoshi was a boy a ninja from the land of fire fled to the Land of Demons. He was a missing nin from Konohagakure and was seeking a rare jutsu that resided in the land. That ninja was named Mitsuhide Azai. Mitsuhide at the time was being hunted by Anbu, and as a result he was very twitchy about everything.

Looking to learn the famed Shadow Mirror Body Changing Method the ninja kidnapped Sukoshi's sister

and torture her till he learned the art. After that he let the young lady go and used the Jutsu to turn himself into her. Unkown to him however one of the Anbu managed to catch up to him and spy on him using the technique. The anbu assaulted Mitsuhide in a attempt to slay him after he took his new form, but the battle ended with a draw and both ninja where forced to retreat. The Anbu later went back to the other Hidden Leaf Ninja and informed them of what he saw. The group as a whole then went out hunting for Mitsuhide.

Meanwhile as this was going on Sukoshi's sister returned home and told her father about what happened. She was in shock, frighten, and felt convicted about giving up the secrets of the ninjutus technique. Her father conforted her much as possible and was making preparations to go to the palace in the morning to tell what happen. However the morning never came. The anbu ninja saw the young girl enter into the house and figured she was Mitsuhide. They thought he had killed the maiden and was preparing to take her place in order to hide from justice.

That night the Anbu crept into the house with the intentions of killing Sukoshi's older sister. Her father however was still up at the time, as he expected the ninja who attacked her earlier to return, and was waiting on him. The carpenter attacked the ninja and was easily slain. His death was swiftly followed by a assault on his bedroom as his daughter and wife where sharing the same room at the time. The mother naturally shielded her child and the Anbu ended both of there lives quickly.

Thinking that there target was dead the Anbu began to make there way back to the hidden leaf village. Unknown to them Mitsuhide was outside and watching the entire incident unfold. He had planned to simply leave the land of Demons and hide out in the land of Waves, but he caught a glimps of the ninja who attacked him earlier jumping through the trees. After laying low for a moment Mitsuhide was going to simply leave, but he soon heard the faint sound of a baby crying coming from the house the Anbu had assaulted. Curiosity had gotten the best of the him and he moved to investigate what happened inside of the home.

Once he arived on the inside of the house Mitsuhide saw what he expected to see. He saw a dead family and the signs of a body being dragged out the home. It was clear that the Anbu had killed the girl he had transformed into and thought that she was him. To be honest he hoped this would have happened from the beginning and was the main reason he simply let her go. With the idea that he was dead firmly in there minds Mitsuhide could finally get away form his life as a ninja for the land of fire. However fate had a different plan for the ninja. As Mitsuhide began to leave he heard the faint cries of the young Sukoshi. At first he was going to leave, but the sound tugged on a heart string inside of his chest and the missing nin decided to take the baby with him.

After leaving the house Mitsuhide took refuge in a cave near a river. He wanted to lay low for a while as he figured the Anbu would come poking around just to be sure that they got him. During that time he would transform into a random old women and visit a local market to go buy milk for the young baby which he would claim to be his grand baby. When someone asked what was the child name Mitsuhide could not think of anything. Naturally he simply chose the first thing that came to mind and that was the word little. so he told them that the young baby girl's name was Sukoshi Kawa. When someone asked about the weird first name Mitsuhide would say that it was due to her father being eccentric and his love of puns.

As a child Sukoshi grew up under the care of Mitsuhide, who had changed his name to Tomiko after he left the village. When asked about there relations Mitsuhide told Sukoshi that he was in fact his sister and that there parents had died in a terrible fire. Sukoshi, being told this as a young child, believed Mitsuhide completely and for him Mitsuhide had always been his sister.

As Mitsuhide raised Sukoshi he did not drop his guard. He was always on the look out for the Anbu, as he figured they would one day figure out his cleaver trick. However he knew better than to think that he could always be on constant guard. As a result he began training Sukoshi to become a ninja since the tender age of three years old. Mitsuhide figured he could raise the young girl up to be his personal bodyguard and keep him safe from harm. However he needed Sukoshi to always be on guard for leaf ninja and as a result once Sukoshi had reached the age of eight her that leaf ninja had burned down there home instead of a fire. Playing off the excuse that he did not want to scare her when she was younger. This way he could train her to not only dislike and distrust leaf ninja but to always be on guard against them.

For a period of Ten years Mitsuhide acted as a mercenary. He would take missions in the land of Waves and Water and eliminate targets with her ninjutsu skills. However she would only take small missions and jobs that where never too big. She made sure to keep out of the Leaf ninja radar all while making a profitable living. By her side was her little sister Sukoshi who learned how to be a ninja.

Once the course of Sukoshi life Tomiko had grown attached to her. He began to see her as his own little sister rather than as a weapon and began to be nicer to her. Once Sukoshi turned thirteen years old things changed. She began to think more onto the past and what he did in the land of demons. After a while Tomiko began to feel bad about there relationship. Eventually he decided that he was going to have to tell Sukoshi the truth about it all. Without much a warning Tomiko told her sister Sukoshi that they where going back to The Land of Demons and that she needed to see the graves of her parents. Thus began there journey to the land of Demons.
