    Well... this is the Third Thread for Pink Blossom Quest. Or the backup thread that occurred when it got spawned.

    Questionable Quest Backup Thread is located here - Click Me!

    The quest seems to have run away from me and and managed to grow up to almost 200 pages again, and given the limitations, I've gotta go with a new thread. Truly, a monster!

    Also, I've started up a redux thread on this forum to weather out the lax that strikes SB, I'll be collecting votes on both SB and QQ threads. So it's not a move or invitation to jump ship or something... just an alternative when lag hits.

    Feel free to post whatever as long as it doesn't get us locked down, kay?

    Write Ins and Arts are ALWAYS appreciated even if I don't get many of 'em. ^_^

    Handseals: 1.8/5.0
    Skills
    - Power Nap
    You can nap ANYWHERE, ANYTIME. And dream...

    - Scholastic Knowledge
    You can read and write. You have basic knowledge of where things are relative to Konoha on a map (geography). You are passable at calligraphy. Exceptional at math and logic. And very skilled at logic puzzles and memorizing patterns.

    - Advanced Shinobi Knowledge
    You don't know much, but you ARE helping your [shinobi] friends with their homework and so are picking up little bits and pieces of information on handseals (hahaha!) for ninjutsu and genjutsu.
    Handseals - You are not too bad at handseals.
    Leadership - You are being taught the finer points of command and communications.
    Medical - Your skills at field first aid is pretty good.
    Ninjutsu - You can perform the basic academy jutsu. Not at the best of speeds, but accurate and with 100% efficiency.
    Genjutsu - You have been shown the true nature of genjutsu... it's all backstage work from here on for you. Genjutsu toolbox. Heart of Maya [currently D rank].

    - Trading/Merchant Knowledge
    Your father has been teaching you the notions of buy low, sell high, honor your contracts... and the other basic natural concepts of buying and selling. You also know that reputation is more important for a merchant than it is for a shinobi.
    Accounting - You can balance a balance sheet for a business, as well as 'basic' bookkeeping
    Taxes - You are able to fill out tax forms without error or shenanigans.
    You got the looks - You have worked out how to look cute to make sales.
    Haggling - You also have worked out the finer points of haggling, you still need work thought.
    Closing the Deal - You have worked out the basics of closing the deal.
    Negotiation - The fine arts of negotiation is more the art of connecting and talking to people than anything.
    International Currency - You know about how money works in different countries.
    International Economies - You know about how economies interact in a basic level.

    - Ki Awareness
    You are aware of the surging energy within your body. An awareness that came into being at the shock of the Kyuubi attack on Konoha, and from the raw unspeakable murderous killing intent it unleashed.

    - Chakra/Ki Bounty
    You have a healthy amount of chakra for a child your age, if you were a shinobi.

    - Chaka/Ki Control
    Your chakra control is AMAZING, your "techniques" do not waste any energy at all.

    - Memories of a Dragon and the Demon within it
    Burned within your soul are techniques of a martial arts style that would DAMN the soul of its practitioner; Ansatsuken. Considered one of the premiere martial arts styles in the world. To use it is to kill not just one's opponent, but their souls, and with such, its practitioner's own. It is said that one of its masters sealed away its killing intent to dilute it. Such a thing is laughable.

    - Memory of That Man
    There is an image of a man in your mind. Tall and clad in white. Strong as a mountain, swift as the wind, quiet as a forest, and as daring as the flames of a fire. A man who smiled as he signed a picture for a girl. He didn't need to do it, but he did it because he could. That picture would come to mean everything for that girl. Enough that she left her home to follow after him.

    - Martial Arts [Saikyo-Ryuu]
    Recollections of lessons in a dojo from another life, now supplemented with techniques from your mother's side.
    Gadouken - Gather your chakra in one palm and throw it at opponent. [D rank]
    Koryuken - Focus your chakra in your fist and UPPERCUT! [D rank]
    Dankukyaku - Leaping Kick. Starts with a rising knee kick. [D rank]
    Tsunami of Stone Death - Ram->Ox Seals, punch stone and get a wave of stone death. [C rank]
    Hissho Buraiken - A series of punches and kicks that ends with Kouryuken. Chakra infusion of your strikes make this technique lethal. [C rank]
    Haoh Gadouken - A greater version of Gadoken that uses both arms to gather chakra and fire it at close by opponents. Can be combined with Hissho Buraiken. [C rank]
    Koryuu Rekka - A more potent variant of Koryuken, this technique is basically multiple Koryuken performed in sequence, rising vertically. [C rank]

    - Martial Arts [Sakura School of Ansatsuken / Sakura no Shin Ken]
    Your soul is old. Far older than your body and the knowledge within it is dangerous for your body.
    Enhancement - You are now physically mature enough to practice the style with chakra [ki] enhancement techniques; such as punches, kicks, and blocking. You can destroy trees with kicks and punches, granted it takes a few hits to do so. [D rank]
    Killing Intent - You can look at deadly beasts, humans and just make them realize how close you are to killing them. [C rank]
    Aura of Sakura - You can "spend" chakra, or rather allow some of your chakra to escape your control while doing techniques. This allows you an purplish pink aura, and the ability to form Sakura in kanji on your back out of pure chakra. No meaningful cost in chakra. [E rank]
    True Enhancement - You are able to momentarily enhance and reinforce your body to the point where you can strike with the force of [C rank] jutsu as well as defend against such. You do however have to spend ??? chakra to do so per attack or defense. Spending prodigious amount of chakra allows you to bump the power of this technique up to [B rank], but would consume your current chakra reserves. [C+ rank]
    Shou'ouken - Gather chakra into your fist and charge! Charging punch that leads into an uppercut. This technique uses horizontal build up of speed to give greater power to your uppercut. [D rank]
    Nekketsu Hadouken - You can gather and concentrate the chakra in the environment around you to mix it with your chakra between your hands to create a chakra beam attack. [B rank]
    Walking and Breathing - You breath as you walk (or not, it is a metaphor). As you breath, you collect the energy in the world within your beating heart. It is converted to chakra you can use. Effectively, allows for higher rank techniques to be powered as long as you have the minimum energy AND concentration to maintain the technique. [S rank]
    Kongou Kokuretsu Zan (false) - You gather and concentrate the chakra in the environment around you to mix it with your chakra in your fist before punching the ground and lancing it downwards. This causes a reaction with the natural energies in the world, and it erupts back upwards. [B rank]

    - Genjutsu [Heart of Maya / D rank]
    Sunflower Field - An endless plain of sunflowers rustling in the wind, with trees and mountains in the distance, and white puffy clouds in the blue skies above. MASSIVE killing intent saturation from the sunflowers. [Killing Intent - A Rank]

    - Genjutsu [Standard]
    Kai - A technique to free one self from genjutsu by disrupting the chakra pattern within one's body. This technique scales up as its user develops their chakra. [E rank]
    Layering - This is not a proper technique in and of itself. Its' existence is a myth as there have been no evidence of any genjutsu technique created with this within it. Effectively, this is a folding technique to fold genjutsu into layers so that kai and assorted escape techniques won't work. [NA]

    Magen: Sakarau no Akumu - A mirror reflection technique that presented one's opponent with a genjutsu mirror/clone of said opponent with every single ability and capability available to said opponent. Considered a high level genjutsu that is difficult to learn and use properly. [B rank]

    - Ninjutsu
    Bunshin no Jutsu - Illusion clone technique [E rank]
    Henge no Jutsu - Illusionary transformation technique [E rank]
    Kawarimi no Jutsu - Replacement technique (log! version) [D rank]
    Henge no Jutsu (Fishcake/Naruto variant) - Perfect transformation [Unknown rank]

    - Fuuinjutsu
    Exploding Tag - You can make exploding tags! [E rank]

    Resources
    - Social Standing
    - Your classmates respect you as one of the one "princes and princesses" amongst the students, a "noble" amongst the children. You are also recognized as a "peer" by the "noble" shinobi students in your class.

    - Mother's Approval
    - Your mother thinks you REALLY should have been a shinobi as you are CLEARLY prodigy level given how you soak up techniques and knowledge.

    - Teacher's Assistant
    - The teachers have come to view you as a reliable student and you have been nominated to help keep order in class and to help assorted classmates with material they have trouble with.

    - Heir to Nobility
    - Apparently, the Haruno clan are wealthy and possess noble status. Or at least your grandfather is. But that's only natural, given that he and you are descended from bad-ass samurai who've been serving the daimyo before the Fire Country was even formed. Also, your grandmother looks younger than she should be. Your grandmother is a nukenin from Yumegakure who deserted to marry your grandfather. They're also in a relationship with "big sis" Merry Bell (unknown status).

    - Grandmother's Approval (Big Sis Yuyu)
    - You have passed SOME sort of test by your grandmother. Looks like she approves of you.

    - Grandfather's Interest
    - You have aroused the interest of your grandfather. Looks like he wants you to be a samurai-ko or something as you are CLEARLY prodigy level given how you soak up techniques and knowledge. And managed to fight THAT well at 6 years old.

    - Uchiha Interest
    - You have made Uchiha Mikoto interested in you. She was last seen talking with your parents about something. You weren't really paying attention after you got bored by the pleasantries.
    - You have gained the interest and respect of Uchiha Lily, who has dubbed you Murderfist-chan. The last person who got this was your father as far as you know.
    - You have gained the ETERNAL HATRED of Uchiha Sasuke. You are now known as That Girl to him. He has vowed to surpass you and make you eat dirt and cry after being defeated by him. Uchiha Lily seems to feels that the two of you look cute together.

    - Merchant Contacts / Haruno International Trading Heir
    - Your father has been introducing you to other merchants in Konoha as his heir. They have said stuff about remembering you when you inherit the business.

    - The Strongest Heritage
    - Your mother has started to teach you her family style; Saikyo Ryuu. Your inner voice is speechless.

    - Shimura Danzo's Interest
    - Your essays have drawn his interest. There is this suspicion that he wants you in the shinobi corps, and will likely green light your advancements as a shinobi. He's given you some kind of warning... but what does it mean?

    - Big Sis Lessons
    - Your two big sis have taught you the basis of their skillsets. Which will it be? Taijutsu that your mother specializes in? Genjutsu that Big Sis Yuyu specializes in? Ninjutsu that Big Sis Merry Bell specializes in?

    - Uzumaki Interest
    - You have gained the Eternal Friendship of Uzumaki Naruto for your part in helping him Uzumaki Kushina's 'daughter' reconnect with the Uzumaki clan in the capital.

    - Konohagakure Admin Interest
    - The ninja administration of Konohagakure has interest in your ninja career.

    - Daddy's heart
    - It was broken at your choices. But it is in the end your choice to follow his path or not. Thankfully, you have it bandaged up after that talk you had with him, and the relaxed work you have been doing at his work place.

    - Mommy's heart
    - Let us hope you didn't break it TOO bad. She's disappointed you don't want to be a ninja. But she'll still support you in your choices. She just doesn't know how much she can help, thou.

    - Big Sister
    - You are now officially a big sister. Your younger sister is Haruno Tatsuki.

    - Fluffy
    - Now that you know what Fluffy was, you have re-established bonds with the tanuki that had been disguised as the family dog.
    - You were given a crystal flower by a boy tanuki, you're NOT sure what it means...
    - Turns out the flower was a disguise by the boy tanuki... how... odd.

    - Pet
    - You now have a pet Tanuki, by the name of Blanka.
    - He is quite male.
    - He is also quite disturbed by what you told him and has tried to drown himself in sake. Literally.

    - Teacher, Onegai~
    - You have awkward feelings for Kasumi-sensei...
    - He's the bestest teacher ever... the perfect mix of gentleness and reserved fighting skills...
    - Telling Blanka has resulted in a near suicide for your pet...
    - You're giving some thought to telling Lily, but she's away from the village...
    - You can NEVER tell your parents, it would be too mortifying...

    - Introductions
    - Your father has introduced you to the various 'small time' merchants in Konoha.
    - As well as Old Man Ironshanks, the greatest chakra-metal smith in the Fire Country.
    - As well as Pungzhi, the Factor of the Konoha branch of Kanza Banks.

    - Chakra Flower
    - You have been given a flower made of chakra metal by Old Man Ironshanks.

    - Eternal Rival
    - "So, softy, can you catch up? Because I'll be moving on up~" Your cousin Youmu considers you a rival. So it's all good. Bad news is that she managed to win your waifu Sasuke from you. He seems to like her for some reason.

    Is already full sized...​

    Sauce is Danbooru - /posts/205145

    [X] Where is your sketchpad? Something this magnificent... You can't let it fade away. You must capture it in your heart for all eternity~

    No... no words. No words to describe it. Poetry! They should've sent a poet.

    That was the thought that filled your mind as you searched for your sketchpad. You curse as you do not find it... only the note book that you had brought from class.

    It would have to do.

    And thus, you take pencil to paper and let your impressions be captured.

    Of menly men! Of fists and hearts meeting and joining as one. Of thrusts! Feints! And counters flying back and forth. This was the romance that was found on the battlefield.

    You... had known something similar once.

    Yes... your pencils flow over paper, page after page.

    Filled with Kasumi-sensei moving with this Gai in an intricate and elegant dance that spoke of attachment and mutual respect. There was an absolute delight in the intimate knowledge shared by those two.

    An intimacy... yes...

    Sakura once shared that with her peers in that long ago age. An intimacy shared with each punch, with each kick, with each strike delivered with utmost perfection, care and accuracy. And parried, blocked and dodged in equal perfection, care and skill.

    You find your world tunneling to just those two as they sparred in the training ground, their blows creating little shockwaves... you don't care that your hair is a mess or that it's sticking straight up...

    It didn't matter in the face of what you are witnessing.

    Big sis Lily was right... this was something truly splendid.

    Much latter, as you walk home with a note book filled with sketches... entirely filled with sketches... you can only feel that you're satiated.

    "So... worth it?" Lily's question was only met with a smile and a nod of your head. "Well... I've got to talk to your mother... why don't you tell her about what we did today... later."

    - - -​

    You are Uchiha Lily, and you are... well, no, not worried... rather, you are concerned about the daughter of Haruno-taicho. She was a nice girl and all, and you might settle for her when she was all nice and mature... but there was a worrying concern that had to be discussed.

    Even if it was just with that old hag.

    There is a foul taste in your mouth at having to speak civilly to her, but for Haruno-taicho and Murderfist-chan's sake, you would do so.

    Thus, you visit the Haruno household, do the usual insulting thing you do with the old hag, because it was habit and customary.

    You settled down on a chair. "We have to talk, Mebuki."

    Your use of her name, however informally but politely, shuts her shrill harping.

    "It's about your daughter," She blinks at your statement before waving you on.

    "Now, I'm not one to talk, but I'm actually concern about her. In her own way, she is... twisted," You turn to look and make sure that Sakura wasn't actually listening in. But she should still be on her high from watching the fight earlier.

    "What do you mean?" The glare from the old hag could put down a tiger at twenty paces. Thankfully, you're more than a tiger.

    "Her world view, her mind, it's distorted. In her own way, she is as twisted as I am," You shake your head. "But where my focus is on pain, she... likes to fight. No, she loves fights as I love pain. Be it by others or by herself... she loves fighting."

    You wave off the old hag's attempts to interject. "No, I mean more than normal. This isn't a like that you find in taijutsu specialists like Maito Gai. This is... something more."

    There is now a contemplative look on her face. She knew something or suspected something.

    "I took her to see Kasumi Kenshiro's monthly fight with Maito Gai. Unlike the others there, her attention wasn't on either of those two or both. But on the fight. If she was older... I swear she would have reached the cloud and rain from witnessing the fight itself."

    You shake your head and stand up. "Well... I've said what I've come to say. Later, old hag. Give my regards to Haruno-taicho."

    [X] Practice Heart of Maya

    With steady practice, repetition, you find that... it's easier to bring forth images. With the image crafting technique born from painting, sketching, visualizing... the details flowed.

    While it wasn't still in any state to be used in combat, what you could do...

    What you've managed to achieve is something to be proud of.

    The visualization of a single sunflower was... easy. Much easier than the attempts you had essayed long ago.

    Had it been that long? You mused to yourself as you gazed at the sunflower. Had it truly been years since big sis Yuyu had taught you this?

    You breath in.

    You breath out.

    The matrix of chakra that you used to create the image of the flower, and it was just an image, it had no reality beyond what you granted it, flattened and smoothed itself out. Equalizing to nothing.

    Static.

    The Darkness of the void surrounded you.

    In.

    And.

    Out.

    You were surrounded by potential.

    You gesture 'upwards' with a hand, and declared. "Let there be light!"

    And there was light above you, the bluest of blue.

    Sky blue.

    Another gesture, and clouds that you had observed and sketched til you knew them by heart flowed across the blue heavens. White puffy clouds with blue and hints of shadow grey.

    It is by your hand that there is light, and it is by your thoughts that there was shadow, shading and all the myriad contrasting hues between light and darkness.

    Another gesture, there was soft loamy soil beneath your feet. The best earth in all of the world, perfect for growing things in.

    The next part would be... tricky.

    You focused on maintaining what you had, and then... carefully, planted that sunflower that you had created before.

    And then... another.

    One after another... to the infinite distance.

    And they gazed upon you, and you knew that it was good, for they were all one and all unique, with their own characteristics. In the surrounding distance, tuffs of green rose up.

    Trees, they would be trees beyond the clarity of vision.

    Your first attempts to introduce wind and motion to the world you had nearly send it flying apart.

    Delicately.

    Carefully, the flowers rippled one by one before they moved in waves to a slight breeze.

    Still, the effort that you had achieve here.

    You stand in a field of sunflowers and breeze in the earthy scent of loamy earth, of sunflowers, heard the soft buzzing of insects and bees. And yet, there was still something missing from the world you had forged, you knew this instinctively. This... this was closer to what big sis Yuyu had done. But it was nothing like it.

    The skills that you possessed and she possessed... they were a world apart.

    Unleashing your killer instinct within this world should be fine... after all, what was inside, stayed inside...

    And the sunflowers gazed upon you and your urge to fight, to hurt and kill. And you felt approval from them. And with that approval, you could feel... something else. You are unsure what...

    Perhaps, this was what they called moe?

    [X]This land. It is not a place of kindness. It is not a place to be flaunted. This is a place of dreams... Dreams and death. Any who might come here will only find battle. Peace does not linger long in this place, and it is almost as if the very flowers themselves would like nothing more then to reach out and strike down one another should they be capable of it.
