“Tsuki-dono! It’s morning! Your breakfast is waiting!” a voice commands, cutting through the morning haze of your mind. Maru, most likely.

“I’ll be down… in a bit, Maru.” you grumble. While you’d been able to sleep in, you felt like a stone buried in the fluff of your mattress. Rubbing your midsection, you wince. While the medical-nin had healed any damage to your body, you were still sore from Nori’s hit. Probably would be for a while, too. Thinking back, you can’t help but thinking how weird that whole situation was- although you suspect you’ll find out what it was all about, eventually.

Rising slowly, you shuffle over to your armoire, and take the time to choose an outfit for the day. Style was important, of course, but you knew you’d be training today, and you suspected Danzo’s training wouldn’t be any easier than taking another one of that barbaric girl’s punches.

After dressing, you do a few stretches. Finally, you do your hair, spending the time to organize your teal locks into the signature drill curls you preferred. Looking at yourself in the mirror, seeing the amber eyes you share with your father, you smile. A statuesque picture of perfection!

You decide to….

1. Take your time with breakfast. You owe Maru after yesterday’s hit and run.
2. Opt for a quick breakfast. Don’t want to keep the old man waiting too long!
3. Skip breakfast entirely- you aren’t hungry. Training is paramount!

So what do you guys think Danzo is going to teach us? I'm hoping for the Body Flicker Technique and we just master that to the pint an enemy doesn't know where we are.

You decide not to tempt fate any further than you have already within the last 24 hours. Danzo of all people knows how Maru can be- you’d be surprised if his old bones were able to dodge her wrath, either.

Wasting no time, you leave your room and head to the foyer, then down the main staircase, heading towards the dining area. You can smell it- she’s probably outdone herself. Again.

Once in the dining area, you walk past the long table where formal suppers and luncheons are held. As usual, it’s deep mahogany surface has been shined to perfection- it could double as a mirror. No need for the formal area this morning, though. You continue onward, to the small veranda just outside.

As you exit, the cool morning wind brushes against your face. Beautiful, as always. The Land of Fire’s weather is always so pleasant, especially in the spring. You sigh, out of nothing more than a small sense of contentedness.

Set before you, on a small glass-topped table, is your breakfast. It’s surprisingly moderate, considering the chef. Maru smiles at you, from across the table. You sit.

“Ah, the young madam has risen from her slumber. Did you sleep well?” Maru holds the smile- if she recognized your previous theft, no hint of it was on her face.

“Yes I did, Maru. Thank you for asking.” Your response is immediate- although you could’ve had the worst sleep of your life, and you would’ve said the same.

You share some some minor conversation, discussing the weather, your father, and his plans for the day. Again, it seems Maru is intent on dragging him outside of his office- you wish her luck.

As she laughs in response, you take a sip of your tea- you’ve given it a few minutes to cool. It’s….

1. Bitter, as tea should be.
2. Sweet, just like you like it.

>>47415680

You take a sip- flavorful. A bit of milk, with hints of cherries and chocolate.

And very, very sweet.

You know bitter teas are better for you, and would go farther to waking you up, but you cannot help it. It’s your favorite, and she’s made this tea for you since you were just a small girl. After taking another sip, you set the cup down gently. She’d scold you if you finished your tea before eating your breakfast- even though her tea is probably the best part of the meal.

Keeping idle conversation, you take a leisurely look around the manor grounds. The lands keepers and servants go about their business, many of them greeting you respectfully as they catch your gaze.

Eventually, a lull in the conversation forms as Maru begins to eat her meal- spartan, by comparison to yours. You could probably take this time to ask her something, as you eat.

1. Ask Maru a question (What?)
2. Don’t. Focus on finishing breakfast.

Might as well ask. You’ve been wondering about it, of late, and you doubt he’d give you a real answer.

“Maru? Mind if I ask you something?”

You hear your own voice- it sounds small, unsure. This won’t do at all. The Norihime must be strong.

“Of course, mistress, speak your mind” she answers; her voice soft, to match you own.

“Does Father still mourn for Mother? Is that why he buries himself in his work? Why he’s never bothered to marry again, even for political reasons?”

Her eyes soften, and she turns her gaze downward.

“Master Yoru… he does grieve for your mother. Every night, I’d wager. You know that your father is a passionate man- he puts his entire being into everything he does. This included his love for your mother. When your mother passed to bring you into this world, Tsuki-dono, I suspect this love passed on to you.”

She reaches forward, and places her hand on yours.

“I know your father can seem distant, but he does everything for you. All of this, his work- it’s all for you. If he didn’t have you, I don’t think he’d be able to keep himself going.”

You don’t know what to say- your Father has always seemed so bright, with the joy he brought to you and all those around him…

“As for remarrying, it was out of the question. The prestigious shinobi families have no need for a rich merchant, and such a marriage would have been a loveless, dismal affair. It is for the best that those petty hangers on have long stopped coming- for years they would come, offering your father the world. They would always leave, taking offense to your father’s indifference.”

You had no idea. In your oldest memories, you do remember visitors, herds of men and women coming to visit your father. The manor was new, then. Emptier, in a way, before most of the serving staff had come. Maru and Danzo had shielded you from much of this, you suspect.

“Thank you, Maru. I doubt Father would be so honest with me.” you reply, doing your best to give her a smile.

She sighs, quietly.

“You’re growing up, Tsuki-dono. Your Father will come to realize this shortly, I suspect.”

This conversation has given you some more information about you parents- although to know more you’d probably need to ask Danzo, or your Father directly.

You…

1. Finish up eating and move along. Dwelling on this negative topic will put you in a foul mood.”
2. Spend a little more time with Maru, to clear your head.

>>47416314

>>47416314

The silence isn’t uncomfortable, per se, although you do feel like something has passed between the two of you.

After finishing your tea, you thank Maru for the meal, and her continued service to your family.

She just laughs, and smiles at you. “Ever the polite young woman. Seems I taught you well.”

You shudder internally. Thoughts of etiquette training had long since left you nightmares, but it wouldn’t be good to forget them entirely.

After bidding farewell to Maru, you head back inside. A passing servant tells you that Danzo awaits you below, near his quarters.

Why does he sleep underground, anyway? He’s an odd old man.

You walk steadily to the far end of the manor, and then follow the stairs downward. Eventually, you pass the wine storage cellar, and come to the end of the passageway. A simple door of iron, unmarked, leads to Danzo’s quarters.

You knock.

“Come in, Tsuki-dono. I’ve been waiting. Did you eat a filling meal?” Danzo’s voice greets you from the other side.

You enter, and respond. “Yes, Maru’s breakfasts are as good as ever.”

Danzo’s quarters are plain, with no ornamentation beyond the symbol of Konoha, painted on the far wall.

“Good. I hope you’ve taken in the fresh air- we’re going to be inside for most of the rest of today.” his voice doesn’t seem to belie his intent.

You question this immediately. “Inside?”

“Yes, inside. Further below, in fact.” he says without a hint of humor in his voice.

You’re puzzled. As you ponder what he means, Danzo walks over to the Konoha symbol, and presses inward, gently. A false wall gives way, leading into a small hallway. At the far end, what looks to be an elevator awaits.

He instructs you to follow him, and you do. He opens the iron shutter on the elevator, and closes it behind the two of you. From his robe, he produces a small key, which he inserts into a console near the front of the elevator.

The contraption lurches, and then descends, slowly.

In the near darkness of the elevator shaft, Danzo poses you a query.

“Tell me, Tsuki-dono. Have you ever heard of ROOT?”

You respond....

1. No, I haven't. What is that?
2. The name is familiar... although I cannot really place it.

>>47416689
>2. The name is familiar... although I cannot really place it.

That's... terrifying... Bet they have all sorts of "interesting" jutsu though.

>>47416930

We don't see much of the actual organization itself. Just it's effects on some key characters

>>47416967
>>47416951
so... free reign to come up with whatever crazy vaguely sinister jutsu wargle wants?

>>47416726
To give a little more context than >>47416765 my amusement, ROOT is kinda like AnBu is to the Shinobi Corps.
Where AnBu deal with the most sensitive of intel, unsavoury missions and spec ops ROOT is all of the black ops. Things that could never see the light of day lest they ruin the Leaf's image forever.
Literally the roots down in the dark, never seen, but always keeping the rest of the tree up.
It was set up by Ol Danzo and Hiruzen back when he was still new to his position and needed an extra off the books force to do dirty work. In canon he much later declared them disbanded but Danzo he basically lost it by that point and kept going anyway.
He used some pretty extreme methods, read: raising a pair of children then forcing them to fight to the death/placing seals on his agents to prevent them from speaking, to ensure absolute loyalty and unthinking obedience.
He used said agents to infiltrate all sorts of places and kill lots of people to further his own goals, read: ensure Konoha's military dominance.
In essence in his own mind the difference between himself and his goals and those of the village got blurred along the way.

Who knows how much of that holds true here though? Wargle Lots of things are different in our timeline.

>>47416951

“No, I can’t say I have. What’s ROOT?”

“ROOT was a group of elite shinobi who served the greater whole of Konoha. Officially, it was part of ANBU, kept secret from the outside world. Those unseen, who would protect the great tree of Konoha from the depths of the earth itself.” he explains.

No surprise you hadn’t heard of it, then.

“Were you part of this group, Danzo?”

He certainly knew enough about it.

“I was its leader.” he answers, and lets the silence hold.
“What happened, then?” you cannot help but question it. You’d always wondered what exactly Danzo used to do.

“Enemies of the Leaf poisoned the ear of our Lord Fourth. He deemed ROOT without purpose, after the end of the war, and on some trumped up accusations, ordered it dismantled. Broken apart, integrated into ANBU as a whole. I retired shortly after. Your father was a friend, and with his growing fortune, he offered me a place to stay, and honorable retirement. Away from those who no longer valued what I had to offer.” he continues, with just a hint of sadness in his voice.

“So we are going to….?” you inquire, although you think you know the answer.

“The old ROOT facility, yes. Your father has kept it clean and running for me, as a favor.”

This is a lot to ponder. Seems that the political situation within Konoha wasn’t as stable as it appeared.

You…

“Probably a lot for you to take in, Tsuki-dono. I would understand if you’re confused.”

Confused isn’t what you’d call it.

“Not confused Danzo, just curious. Please, go on.”

You can see him turn his head towards you, just slightly. He chuckles.

“Your father was always interested, too.”

You quirk an eyebrow at this, but don’t say anything further.

“I’ll be the first to admit we did some things that others may have found… unscrupulous. But it was war. We did what we needed to do to protect the Leaf. To protect men and women like your parents. I am proud of what we were able to accomplish, and those we were able to save.”

“But I’m rambling like an old man. ROOT is no more. However…”

As he says this, the elevator stops with a jolt. He lifts the shutter again, and the two of you continue to walk. A plain iron door at the end of the hallway comes into view. Using the same key, Danzo unlocks the door, and pulls it open.

Inside is a large facility, crisscrossed with walkways on it’s second level, where you now stand. Danzo hits a button on the wall nearby, and lights above start to flicker to life. You can see a great many things- training equipment, sparring areas, libraries, and so on. You could train an army in here.

“The knowledge we learned, and the skills we perfected, all in the name of Konoha, should not die over simple political squabbling. I would let the next generation decide. Your generation, Tsuki-dono.”

1. Suprised. This is far larger than what you had envisioned.

We're totally going to have an arc where our clan/family betrays the village and we go missing-nin.

Please oh please can we become a ROOT nin, it's something we have not done before in any other quest. Princess of Root

"Can we go to Tsuki's house?! She has the best clubhouse!"

>>47417791
OH GOD!

WE'RE GONNA BE THIS TEAM'S SASUKE!

I wonder what kind of Ninja we are going to become? Ninja Batman? Wealth, secretly trained by an underground Ninja group, bat/Root cave.

I actually want to make Danzo proud

>>47417832
I kinda want his summoning scroll, that thing's OP if he teaches us his vacuum jutsu to go with it.

Danzo gonna give us the chakra paper test? I wonder if we will become a more Yin/Yang nin instead... I'm oddly hoping for Water release, it's clean, elegant yet also can come crushing down upon our foes.

>>47417713
>3. Excited. You are eager for what Danzo wishes to teach you.

WHAT COULD GO WRONG?

>>47417862
Maybe we could go with something really abstract/out there? like an Octopus or a bird or something instead of a mammal?

>>47417933
Combo Genjutsu with an Octopus summon, trantacles coming out the darkness, alien like eyes staring from the black, if we go full root it'd look awesome. Cuthulesque based Jutsu, we'll fuck their minds until they end their own lives.

“This is….. massive. All of this is built into the mountain?” you say, exasperated.

Massive doesn’t cover it. He has to be selling himself short- this nothing short of a military installation. ROOT being part of ANBU…. You think back to what Danzo said in the elevator. ANBU were the best, the literal cream of the shinobi crop. To think they had an even more selective internal organization, and that you now have access to that organization's information and techniques…? Mentally, you’re drooling. Not physically, though. Tact, Tsuki. Don’t let him see how awed we are by this…..

“Built under it, initially.” Danzo answers, breaking you out of your own mind. “As we expanded, we built tunnels leading many places. Most of them have been sealed, although that blasted Uchiha never found all of them.”

He seems rather pleased with himself.

“The elevator is a newer construct. Built when the manor was, at my request. Not that your father required much convincing. There is no safer place in Konoha, than right here. The very heart of our precious village.”

“If you’d like, when I deem you ready, I can make you a copy of the key. However…” Danzo’s voice becomes more stern, certainly more than you ever remember. “Until that time, you are not to come here without me. While I believe you have unlimited potential, even those with that talent must be tempered. Konoha has learned this the hard way many times.”

You…

He wouldn’t say that without a reason…. And really, who knows what’s down here.

“Of course. I assume there will be a test?” you answer, dutifully.

“You know me well, Tsuki-dono. Once you have become a chunin, we can talk more about the secrets of this place, and I will test you.” he says, his slight smile returning.

“Until that time, we shall come here together when you wish to utilize the knowledge here. This way I can not only teach you, but can temper you. Help form you into the shinobi you were destined to become.”

You aren’t really sure about that last part. He’s probably just flattering you.

“Come. Follow me down to the main level. Before we begin, we need to know certain things about your natural abilities. For one, knowing the nature of one’s chakra is important. I assume you already know of that which I speak?”

don't forget excellent eyesight and use of poisons. Blue ringed octopus and pfeffers flamboyant cuttlefish.
>>47418285
Octopus can move out of water. An Octopus was kept in the local science lab, the aquatic biology department can't recall the proper name. The scientists noticed fish going missing in the other tanks so they set up cctv. The octopus was opening the lid of its tank, slithering out crossing the floor and noming on them when no one was there.

So, place your bets, if we're assigned an elemental nature, what would it be?

I'm thinking wind, water, or lightning are all possible types with ice release as a possible kekkai gekkai

>>47418340
Ahhh love that miracle, but yeah we'd have a definite elemental weakness unless... since were using a bow... could we whip up a jutsu that turns an arrow into a lightning rod, pulling lighting chakra attacks away from stuff?

I'm thinking fire.

Character is a bit of a smug ice princess, so it'd be funny if her element was an aggressive one.

>>47418362
An Ohohojou would be good at handling friction
So I think Fire or Lightning
Kekkei genkai are impossible without having the actual blood of that clan

>>47418384
That little bit is the most most frustrating part of chakra natures

It should go Air<Fire<Water<Lightning<Earth<Air

>>47418362
I say water. Favorite element.

>>47418401
Could just be a mutant

But I'm not counting on it

kekkai genkai are mixed releases right? what do you get with fire and lightning, don't think there's a blood line tied to that one yet?

“Yes, the academy covered the five elemental natures of chakra. Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, and Lightning.” you answer.

“Good to know the academy still covers the basics. The Second would be rolling in his grave if his precious academy had come to naught. Although… he might still be doing that regardless.” he laughs at his own joke.

You don’t get it.

The two of you walk to the center of the main sparring arena, and Danzo shuffles over to one side. Eventually, he produces two pieces of chakra paper from a nearby bookshelf.

He hands one to you, and then holds his up.
“You already have good chakra control, so I’m not particularly concerned about this part.” he starts, holding the paper between you. “Simply channel your chakra into this paper, and it will react a certain way, depending on the type you have. Easy enough. I’ll demonstrate.”

You sense the slightest surge of chakra- and suddenly, the paper in Danzo’s hand has burst into flames. It very quickly crumbles to dust.

The effects are varied, although I’ll be able to tell you what they mean.

You look at the paper in your hand, and begin to concentrate…..

>>47418498
the only other unknown Kekki Genkai is Fire/Lightning. That would be some brutal shit.

>>47418469
The way they interact may make it seem like that, but think of it this way

If you use lightning on a pool of water that your enemy made, yeah, you'll shock him

But if your enemy shoots water at you and you hit that with lightning, now you're just going to get hit with the electrically charged water

So it isn't that one actually defeats the other, even though they interact

The paper quickly crumples into a small ball. The ball then erupts into flame. Bright blue flame.

The flame continues to burn- and it actually starts to hurt!

“..ow!” You wince as you recoil, and drop the flaming ball to the floor.

Quickly, Danzo steps on it, putting it out with a crunch.

“Seems that combination of your natures is… rather volatile. It would need to need to be producing some extreme heat to be burning hot enough to harm the user- normally this is impossible for one’s own chakra.

I would be very careful with that, for the time being. We can work on developing this talent of yours, and many others. I suspect that is only the tiniest representation of what it is you can really do with this power.”

“Now, shall we begin? I have excercises in mind to help strengthen your control, but those can come later. A smart young woman like yourself surely has something she’s wanted to learn. We can start with that, if you’d like.”

I hope so, but probably not.

>>47418779
>2. I want you to pick!

Maybe something offensive so we can put our nin/gen scores to use?

>>47418827
That has much to do with lightning and little to do with fire.

A primer-

The one he picks is going to be very utilitarian, and will also double as way to train you. It's probably not going to be as exciting as you all think.

On the flip-side, obviously there are jutsu you will be entirely unable to perform at this point in your shinobi career, and he knows this.

>>47418827
actually as plasma is superheated, ionized gas, i'd be more like Air/Lightning release

>>47418779
>>1. Well, there is this one jutsu…. (Which One?)
>Body Flicker!

Body flicker helps keep away those crude melee fighters while we dispatch them with our superior ninjutsu.

>>47418848
remember that the chakra natures are also symbolic as well. Water + wind makes ice. Part of that might be cooling, but it is also a matter of it's nature as the cutting release.

As for thoughts on release names

Initially it was plasma release. I've also entertained some of the others mentioned. Stellar, Solar, Nuclear(didn't like), etc. I liked plasma because you are literally superheating the ionized gases with you own chakra- well beyond what the "vibration" based lightning chakra can do in canon. but that's just me

>>47418884
Extrapolating

And besides, lightning is one very singular aspect of what plasma is and can be. But, will of anon trumps all. I'll hold a vote in the future, sometime.

>>47418884
What about spark? Very fitting with fire and lightning.

>>47418779
>1. Well, there is this one jutsu…. (Which One?)

Phoenix Flower Jutsu. We'll be able to control the flames and may even create a variant of it with plasma release.

>>47418896
Plasma or just plain ol' "Heat" is fine

>>47418915
Heat is kind of taken by Scorch Release.

Were a squishy mage, playing keep away is important

Gotta play keep-away with those pesky melee ninjas.

Actually nvm, shadow clone achieves the same thing with more utility changing to 3.

In theory yes, although this is insanely taxing on the user.

At Tsuki's current level, she'd only be able to make a single shadow clone. But because she CAN make it, it also serves as a great training tool.

Even one shadow clone is too op to pass up

Plus, we have a defense with body replacement technique

It still bugs me that Naruto never noticed or that nobody told him about the clones' memories until post-timeskip

I always thought that was more because his clones typically lasted ~2 seconds before being instagibbed by whoever he was fighting

>>47419026
The fact that he basically learned nothing on that trip might be just as bad

Oh boy, cant wait to abuse this!

I back it
