Battei Sennin - [Mogi]

Kyo's parents lived in a small village right outside of Konoha. They lived a very happy life together, supporting one another in what seemed like a time of peace. However, this was also during a time that Konoha was at war with another country. It was a small country who was small in size, but large in strength. Both of Kyo’s parents were part of the Black Ops and were responsible for carrying out secret missions.

After a year of being with one another, Kyo’s mother became pregnant. As time past on, her stomach grew big as the war waged on. Due to her pregnancy, Kani was not able to help in the mission any longer. Every night was the same, Kyo’s father would leave to go through with his missions while Kani waited at home. In the morning, he would return and sleep until noon. But one day it did not happen…

The shutters on the window fluttered like a leaf in the wind, tapping back and forth as the gusts bashed against them. Kani moved across the room and reach for the shutters. She quickly placed the lock back around the knobs as to stops the house from shaking. Her stomach was protruding from her own body like some sort of alien. This was her first time being pregnant so she was not used to the strangeness of the baby within her. A small kick made her heart race, only to calm back down by the motherly love that represented itself. She moved back over and sat back into her chair. She rocked back and forth as she knitted a small pair of mittens for an unborn child.

A hand carved crib lay next to her and also rocked back and forth. Her foot swung it gently as if t tries it out. The villagers know that you will be strong… At only the age of 22, she was a young mother and unsure about everything. This was how most of her nights were pent; the warm fire brushing against her back, needles moving in her hands and a ball of yarn growing smaller and smaller. She looked at the clock that rested on the wall. Her husband would be home in only two hours, exhausted from a mission. She would then stay up another hour wanting to know every detail about his work while he would bagger her to get some sleep. She was so used to doing team missions with him, that she felt like a piece of her was missing since the baby came along. She touched her stomach and rubbed it softly. “Time for bed my dear...”

As the sun rose, it peaked through the blinds on her window. She slowly rolled out of bed and put on her robe and slippers. She moved to the window like a drum man and peered outside. The storm last night had left their fronyard a wreck. The garbage lay on the ground and the sheets that hung on the line were dirty once more. She frowned at herself for not remembering to bring them in. “Looks like I will have to wash them again.” Just then, she heard a knock on her door. As she turned to exit the room, she noticed that her husband was not there. Assuming that he was already up, or being briefed for hi next mission, she glided across the house like a fat ballerina. As she opened the door, anbu agents stood outside. Kani knew who they were right away. They had done several missions together over the last year. “Well good morning Yaku, good morning Futsuki, and how may I help you?”

No one spoke for several second indicating that something was wrong. One of the masked men seemed to look at the ground as the other one spoke. “Kani… it's about Volo….” The sudden worry struck Kani in the chest like a pile of bricks. He had not come home that night.. which could only mean... “Kani, Volo did not make it…” Tears filled her eyes as the words of her prediction were confirmed. She began to sob fiercely and fell to the floor. Her tear soon soaked the cloak of one of the men as he tried to comfort her. Her screams for her lost husband were soon interrupted by scream s of pain as her water broke. Realizing what was happening, the Anbu agent quickly picked up the sobbing woman and headed for the hospital. She screamed for her husband in no reply. As she was wheeled into the delivery room and the doors shut, she called for Volo with streams running down her face.

Later that next morning, she sat in her bed, her face hard from the dried salty tears that had once made it moist. She sat up looking at her hands with wide open eyes. Her stomach was now thin and a small blonde baby lay next to her bed. The baby cried for his mother milk but was unheard. She was lost in her own world of thought. He was supposed to be here… he was supposed to be right here…. She looked over at the small thing that called fro her. He was so very small and fragile. His eyes were those of her husbands, which only made her weep to look at them. At that moment, a loud peeping sound went off as the baby began to seize. Blood trickled down his nose as a nurse rushed in.

The baby was quickly taken to the E.R. where the highest of medical ninja began their work. Kani waited in silence still starring in her bed. Her body told her to go and get her baby, but her mind was lost in thought. The baby had some strange illness or disease that they could not figure out. They did not even know what it was that was causing the seizures. After about an hour, Kani finally snapped out of it when a nurse brought in a plate of food and sat it next to her. Kani rose her head to look at the woman which made her jump. “Where is my baby…. Where is Kyo?”

The nurse called for a doctor who rushed in to kani. After checking her eyes and vital signs, he sat and looked at her. She starred into his eyes and then looked around the room. “Where is Kyo?” The doctor’s face grew very grave as he spoke to her. “Miss Uchiha….”

“It’s Mrs. Shikyo!!!” She bellowed at him.

“My apologies…. Mrs. Shikyo….. your son died five days ago…” His words shot through her like a bullet to the heart. Dead? How could he be dead? Wasn’t he just there last night? She could not make sense of what he said and was enraged at him for playing this cruel trick on her. She slapped him on the face and sent him flying across the room.

“Dead!?! What the hell do you take me for!!! How could you say such a thing!?! My husband is Dead!! Dead!!!” She began to weep again in sorrow and rage. The doctor slowly rose to his feet and moved closer to her.

“You have been in a state of mental conflict for the last couple of days… what may seem like second were actually hours. Your mind was not able to handle the stress of your husband’s death and blocked out the rest of the world, sheltering yourself. Your baby… Kyo… past away five days ago. The doctors could not find out what was wrong with him before it was too late…” Kani sat back in her bed again with her blank stare. It seemed as though she had drifted back into her mental state. The doctor sighed heavily and went over to the door, turning off the light. “It seems that her mind has once again shut down… maybe permanently. The poor woman…”

As the moon rose, and all the lights went dark, the sound of curtains flickering was heard from her room Kani’s room. One of the nurses opened her door to find her bed empty and her window open. Kani was gone. She turned around and found Kani starring at her with her dark and angry eyes. The nurse looked down to see a scalpel in Kani’s hand that was stuck through her own stomach. The nurse’s blood drizzled down her white uniform as her body fell to the ground. Kani’s words seemed disfigured; almost mad. “You have taken away my husband… but you will not take away my son…”

She raced through the hospital until she found the room where they kept all the bodies until they were to be taken to the morgue. Gliding her hand across the rows of dead bodies, she stopped at the one that said Kyo. Without looking at the babies covered face, she picked him up and cradled him in her arms. Leaving the room, she exited the hospital.. not without killing two people that tried to stop her. She made her way across through the streets and into a secret building.

The Anbu base was highly secure, but her mastery in genjutsu served her well. She only had to kill a few ninja with her own hands before reaching the room that she had been searching for. She opened the door to reveal a small library full of forbidden scrolls of jutsu. She was sure that an alarm had already be triggered and she would not have much time. After all… it was the ANBU Base. Pulling through the many scrolls, she finally came across the one that she wanted. With her photographic memory, she looked over the scroll and memorized every detail.

Two Anbu agents burst though the door with kunai in each of their hands. One of them was shocked to see that it was Kani. It was the two Anbu that had told her of her husband’s death. They looked at her and noticed the small bundle in her arms, along with the scroll. “I know what you are doing Kani, but it is forbidden!!” Without hesitation, she charged at them with the scalpel in her hand. She plunged it into the startled one and drove it deep into his neck. The second one slashed at her, only to see her disperse into petals. He had been cast into a genjutsu and did not even notice it.

Kani mad her escape and ran across the fields. When she arrived at her house, she slowly unlocked the gate. Taking off her shoes, she entered the house and laid the baby down on the soft carpet. She took the scalpel and cut both of her wrists, deep enough so that the blood oozed out like a small river. Quickly writing symbols around the baby, it took five minutes before she was complete. She crossed her legs and began the ritual. Her head felt dizzy and she wanted to sleep, but she knew that she must continue. Just as she finished her last handseal, the front wall burst off the house to reveal 12 Anbu agents.

“Heru no Juin!!!”

The red blood symbols around the baby began to glow brightly. A strong wind whipped around him, creating a tornado that burst through the roof. Millions of faces could be seen with the tornado as it also started to shine brightly. The long stream of wind rose all the way up to the black sky that was covered in clouds. The black clouds raced down the tunnel as the millions of faces screamed in agony. Their piercing scream caused some of the anbu to bleed from their ears, as they tried to block out the sound. The bright red tornado seemed to collapse down into it and the baby boy. Just then, the tornado exploded, sending a blast of wind out that blew the house apart.

Kani pushed the wood off her now body and crawled over to the baby. Underneath the blanket, he moved about. As she reached for him, an Anbu appeared right in front of her. He crouched down and lifted the blanket. The baby’s hair was now dark blue as he squirmed. The cold air made him start to fuss and then cry. The cry sounded like a thousand scream. While bringing her son’s soul back from the dead, Kani had opened a window for the dead to peer through. The anbu shivered as the sound burst through him. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a kunai. He rose it above his head. At that exact moment, a soul burst out of Kyo’s body and stuck its hand through his chest. Grabbing him by the insides, the soul retracted back into Kyo, dragging the screaming man back with it.

The other anbu then rushed to his aid, but were too late. They knew that the baby must die. Such a horrible creature should not exist. Kani had gotten the ritual wrong and had made a monster. As they ran towards the baby with their swords and weapons in hand, a hundred should emerged from the small boy and shot towards the anbu. One anbu slashed at a soul. The soul seemed to be made of some sort of black liquid that split into two. It grabbed him and tore his body apart. Some were dragged into Kyo while others were ripped to pieces. When their scream dimmed and all was silent, the souls retreated back into Kyo.

Kani crawled closer to the small child and picked him up in her arms. As she cradled him, tears filled her eyes. What have I done… Her right hand rose up above her head to reveal a kunai shining in the dark light of the moon. “I am sorry….” She spoke while sobbing heavily, thrusting the kunai into the babies small body. Suddenly, she stopped crying. Where she had stabbed the baby, a hand had emerged from his body and caught it before it struck him. A soul slowly emerged from him and got within an inch from her face before letting out a loud scream that sounded of death itself. Kani closed her eyes as her last tear trickled down her pale cheek.

The sound of a woman scream could be heard all through the hills. Hearing this, the backup shinobi rushed to the scene to see to the horror that had befallen their comrades. The field was littered with corpses and some were missing. Movement caught the corners of their eyes as they saw a small baby boy moving within the middle of the chaos. The baby was soaked in his mother’s blood and began to cry. Her body was never seen again…

Kyo was taken to a secret facility where they housed shinobi with unique abilities that endangered the outside world. After a few weeks without the outbreak of his curse mark, the current Tsuchikage decided to adopt Kyo. from that day on, he was known as Battei.

It’s surrounding areas were formed with high peaks and cliffs, making it a death trap for any who did not belong. The Earth Village had their own Black Ops known as the Sotto which mean “Face of the Earth”. The Sotto had two special teams within their ranks, one known as Tenjou and the other was Tenchi. Together, they were Earth and Heaven, two halves of a whole. Tenjou stood as the heavens, while Tenchi represented the earth. They are a formidable group that only answers to the Kage. There numbers are large and their strength is frightfull.

A new type of mineral was found, that made it so that earth jutsu would not work one the stones and earth around the village. The Kage decided to do research on the mineral and found a way to bypass the minerals abilities and control the earth and stone within Earth Country. This mineral prevents the use of all jutsu that uses the earth in any way, including phasing through or merging with it. A select few are given this cursemark and then join the Sotto.

As the son of the Kage, Battei was trained with the greatest of care. His teachers were the best of the best, and were only for him to learn from. His father had insured his son’s training by placing him into a private class with several ninja of exquisite skill. Even at a young age, he had shown ability beyond that of a genin, and was quickly pushing his way through the school, and into the more advance classes.Even early on into his academic years, he showed skill in Earth manipulation, which had been expected, due to the fact that his father had been a gifted Earth manipulator. Upon learning the academy basics, he had begun to learn several basic Earth techniques.

He started out with the basic rock formation and then moved into rock movement. He soon came to the point where he could carefully predict the perfect strategy on how to defeat his teachers. This made a few people look in his direction as an individual. His plans were flawless and always worked and it was not long before the Sotto took an interest in him. At age 8, he enrolled into an Sotto-based training regime, learning the rare skills that they had to offer.

At his 10th birthday, Battei was awarded the rank of Genin, and with it, was placed into a team. Unlike most genin, his team consisted of Jounin, making him the weakest of the bunch. However, by taking membership in this team, he was placed under two different teachers, each which gave him a unique ability unlike the others. One of the jounin taught him further Earth manipulation. The second jounin instructed him on the more advance and traditional Taijutsu techniques.

He entered the Chuunin exams at age 12, and without the accompidation of his team. Quickly advancing to the final round, due to his abilties, he found himself going up in a battle with multiple ninja with advance training beyond that of his own. But even with the training, their skills were weak, and his were as crisp as a Jounin's. With only minor injuries, he passed the Chuunin Exams.

His Chuunin Life started at age 12, and he uniquely decided to remain at this level for another year. This time in his life consisted of training, without missions, and was the same routen everyday. Wake up, prepare, practice, and go home to prepare for tomorrow. By the end of these eight years, he became a challange for his father, who had seeked a battle partner. His father died two years later, but not before giving Battei his prized possesions. He gave him unique scrolls, and a suit that he once wore. The silk was infused with chakra to weaken almost any blow to his body. To young to be the next Kage, his fathers right hand was put in charge. The man’s name was Notomadi Garimo. Untill the day that he was old enough, Battei would have to wait to be the Kage.

The kage was very kind and soft he seemed like a nicer version of Battei's dad. He was also very stubborn and refused help from others. He would always seem to get worked up over ideas that Battei came up with. Battei's ideas always worked, but Notomadi wanted to be the smart one and refused to put any of Battei's ideas into motion. This would eventualy lead to the weakening of the Stone Village.

At age 13, Battei had been selected to be a Jounin. His skills were not extreemly powerfull, but he was a strategist like no other. There were times where he had been even compared to the wits of Shikamaru Nara. As a Jounin, he was then admitted into the Sotto, being the youngest Sotto member in history. He continued his skills untill the end of the year, when he was put into the Tenchi group of the Sotto. While training every day, Battei had grown strong. His chakra level was extremely high and could almost be compared to that of a half-Jinchuuriki.

While training with the rest of the Tenchi, he also worked on his own skills at map making. Battei was able to bring his maps to life like only one other ninja had ever done. The Tenchi training was like no other…. They would fight eachother in an all against all battle that would last for days. With Battei's special abilities, he was able to hid when needed, and keep track of everyone’s movements. The battles soon grew longer and longer untill they could fight for 7 straight days before growing fatigued. There missions were completed smoothly and there power grew stronger.

While going through a box of his father's things, Battei came upon something that shocked him. From his mothers side of the family, Battei was blood related to the great Rikudo Sennin also known as the Sage of the Six Paths. Upon further reading, he found records of things that had never been shown in any historical text. As it was speculated that the Hidden Leaf Village was the first ninja village, it turned out that they were wrong. After having created the first jutsus, Rikudo created a village of his own of peace and tranquility. It was meant to be a pentacle of joy and hope for all that suffered in a time of war. However, as new travelers joined the village, new ideas were placed within it's walls. The very first ninja order was created a few months later with Rikudo leading them. Their goal was to keep the peace and order of all the surrounding areas.

As years went on, it was not long before everyone in the village knew jutsu. The village was sectioned into eleven main clans one being the mighty Uchiha. War soon broke out among the village and neighboring countries engulfing the village in constant attacks. On one frightful day, one of the clans left the village and joined with their enemies. As the two clans merged together, Konohagakure was formed. Soon other villages were formed believing that Konoha was the source of the ninja way. But as the leaders of every village were informed of the awesome power and jutsu that the true original village had, they soon came to an agreement. One week later, all five of the great nations came together and wiped the village out. It's name was erased from all texts so that none would no of it's existence.

As Battei placed the sheet of paper down on his desk, he was shocked at what he had just read. How could the nations have done this? How could the Uchiha have betrayed them? Now it made sense to him how they were such a fierce clan, direct dependents of the great Sage. Within the box lay an old headband with a strange village symbols upon it. It looked like an incomplete circle with several lines upon it. It was impossible to tell if the the rest of the symbol had faded away or if this was how it was meant to be. Battei placed the forehead protector on his head and stood up looking over to a mirror that he knew was there, but unable to see it.

"I will rebuild this village, even if it means the fall of others..."

Battei left Iwagakure without any word and changed his last name to that of the great Sage of Six Paths so that all would know of his heritage. He disappeared almost from the face of the planet and was never heard fro again... until now.

Almost nothing is known about Mogi. When looking into the records of every village, there is no record of his existence, speculating that he may have never been born within one. However, his moves and jutsu suggest that he was still trained in the arts of the shinobi. He was first seen about five years ago with a large scar across his chest. Traveling through the Fire Country, he has stayed away from most of the major villages.

While traveling through the Fire Country, he viewed the scenery and ate at almost all of the rice dumpling shops. These acts show his weakness for sweets and his almost childish actions. Mogi is a very clumsy shinobi who has often mentioned this as an advantage. "It's like my body is dodging attacks all on it's own.." said Mogi after tripping on a stick while running from a Fire Ball Jutsu that passed over him. He still has yet to show any other good use of this trait.

However, another one of his noted traits is his speed. Able to flee from a large mob of people after accidentally destroying a building, he was quickly able to escape death. This was probably the first siting of Mogi. Mogi had just bought a starter equipment set for shinobi when the inevitable happened. Playing with his new set, he thought that the paper bombs were nothing important and threw them in the trash. The bombs exploded, destroying the shop and enraging the villagers for his stupidity.

While he may have the usually kunai on hand, since he was seen buying them, his most noted weapon is a stick. Yes, thats right, Mogi will often break off a stick or branch from a tree and use that to whack people on the head. While it does no real damage to people, it does tend to irritate them. That is only one of the stupid yet useful tactics that he uses.

Mogi is also known for making "bluff" jutsu on the spot. Acting as if he is about to unleash a powerful jutsu, he will name every day actions with names as if it helps him in some way. This has also been used to throw off an enemy. While he may act dumb at times, he is rather smart.

Though his reasons for doing so are a mystery, Mogi has teamed up with the Neo-Akatsuki. Usually doing the smaller missions, he is seen as a weaker pawn of the Akatsuki. But don't underestimate his low status. He can be very strong when he wants to be and often completes his tasks without a problem. Well, unless you call screwing up most things a problem then no there is no problem.

After joining, Mogi quickly became a key member but not through brute strength. To his own benefit, many of the current members were dying off on missions. It had seemed that the shinobi world was becoming a more dangerous place to live. Not only that, but some could even speculate that Mogi had somehow taken part in a few of their deaths. Most of the members who had died had been partnered up with Mogi and had died do to a careless action or accident.

Mogi soon acquired his own plans for how he would use the Akatsuki. By slowly climbing to the top, it took him a matter of four years before he was one of the top members and was being considered as a replacement for the leader. The Neo-Akatsuki were an organization that would never die. Aslong as someone wanted money power or revenge, they would exist. But even though he was being considered this spot, many opposed it because of his childish ways and lack of leadership.

But even though he acted like a child most of the time, his plans were flawless and many could not believe that they had come form this guy. Mogi became the leader after a few more months but still did field work. This allowed him to view the world and their enemies along with hide the fact that he was the leader. After all, not many leaders went out and did lower class mission alone.

He now spends most of his time within their base but will also leave to do missions. He will also leave to goof off with the locals or just have fun. His search for strong jutsu has also taken much of his time. He does not have many but often does not even have to use them. Life is good when you are the leader of a large organization of misfits.
