The Audition

[Six Paths of Pein/Konan]

Alright, lets get started!

Unlike many sites i've ran in my past, this one will be slighly different when it comes to playing as a canon character. To be a character from the show, you have to prove that you are worthy of the character you wish to be. In other words, show us your skills!

To do that, reply to this post with the character's name you wish to be (if he/she isnt already taken) at the top of the post. Afterward, type out a 3 paragraph (Roughly 15 sentences) roleplay of your skills. If everything is legit, then you will be allowed to be that character.

Show us what you got!!!

[Nara Shikamaru]

Shikamaru Nara

Another average day in the life of Nara Shikamaru. Watching clouds, sleeping, and playing go with his pops. To the shadow bender's surprise, he could never beat his dad! He had never known that his father was such a strategist. It definitely didn't show it. Especially when it came to arguments with his wife.

Currently, Shikamaru was struggling thinking of the next move while Shikaku had a calm demeanor. Shikamaru grabbed a piece and placed it down. After that it was over once Shikaku made a move. Shikamaru sighed. "Looks like I win again son." Shikaku said with a cheeky grin. Shikamaru bowed his head in defeat. "Ahh man. I thought i had you this time." the chuunin stated. "I miscalculated again." he went into thought about what he did wrong. Shikaku just chuckled and stood. "Maybe next time." he proceeded towards the house. After Shikaku vanished, Shikamaru stood and put his Chuunin Flask Jacket back on and walked away from the house.

He stood at his destination; K.I.A Memorial. He had memorized where his sensei's name was placed. Everyday he would visit this grave to talk to him. but today was different. Today was the anniversary of his death. Shikamaru reached into his ninja pouch and pulled out a pack of Asuma's cigarettes. He held the box infront of his face and just stared down at it. he had given up smoking before it became a habit. Last thing he wanted was lung cancer. He smiled at the thought of avenging his sensei and how he felt at that moment. He almost swore that Asuma himself was there, helping him, driving him on.

The young Nara placed the pack on the ground next to the grave. He clapped his hands together in a small prayer before bowing. "Thank you, Asuma-Sensei." Shikamaru muttered. He turned and treaded away from the grave before looking over his shoulder. "Same time tomorrow." He smiled before leaving. he had other things to take care of before he can cloud watch again.

[Naruto Uzumaki]

Naruto Uzumaki


"Ah! That was some good ramen!-dattebayo!" Naruto exclaimed as he place down his chopsticks and nodded to the old man of the shop. "When I come back tommorow, I'll try the special for sure. It was a tough decision to choose from today but I'll definitely try it tommorow." Naruto finished.

"Oi, you're always welcomed here, Naruto" the old man said sincerely. "As long as you pay"

"Hm?" Naruto hadnt really realized that all these late night meals at the Ichiraku Ramen stand was slowly, but surely, taking a heavy toll upon the contents of his wallet. He reached into his pocket and pulled out his custom made frog wallet and gently clipped the ends to open it.

"Ah man. At this rate, my wallet will be empty in no time... even with all the missions I've been on lately. d**n that Granny Tsunade! I don't get paid enough" Naruto muttered to himself as he placed the wallet back into his pocket.

"Well, old man, I'll see you tommorow! I'm off" Naruto rose from the brown cushion of his seat and began to walk off into the distance; all the while, waving farewell to the staff of his favorite place.

[_Ino.|]

For some reason Ino had woken up early today, although it was a very nice day to begin with, so she did not have much of a problem with it. Having gotten ready and putting on some normal clothes. She ate some breakfast and left her house. She had chosen something odd to wear today. And she knew it was to be an interesting day. "Wonder why I choose this..." The blonde whispered to herself as she walked on the konoha streets, looking around at the poeple that woke up early to do their business.

Thank goodness she had to tend to the flower shop later on the day, it was not as she did not like it, just that she liked to have her alone time. As she walked, most of the people that were awake looked at her weird like, she guessed it was her outfit. Since she was wearing an aqua coloured dress, with light green flowers at the bottom left that went down past her knees. Following with a pair of black thigh high stocking and a pair of black non-heeled combat boots. Her hands were covered with a pair of black leather gloves. Her hair in a tidy pony tail with a black ribbon. Around her neck was a black satin choker. But she could not help but grin at the people's reaction.

Her arms went around her neck and were placed there as she walked. Looking about to see if anything would catch her attention. But nothing was of interest to her, not even Sai was around to look at him. Narubaka was probably eating ramen somewhere. Chouji... she prefered not thinking about him since she knew where he would be. Shikamaru... Well... after having lost Asuma-sensei he had no one to play with. This brought a sad smile to Ino's lips. Coming to a stop the blonde looked down at the pavement underneath her. "Mmmm..." Was all she said as she remembered her sensei. He was trully missed and she should go see him once in a while.

She shook her head slightly, her attention going to a boy who was running around in a part near by. The blondes head tilted to her right as if figuring out who the boy was. She then looked about to see who the boy belonged to and no one was there. The blonde decided to go see for herself, the boy passed by her and she cought onto his shirt making him stop. The boy was actually adorable, had big yellow eyes, with nice silky blue hair. His clothing was interesting, wearing a pair of black pants, with a pair of black shoes and a sweater that was good on his body yet the sleeves were a foot long too big for the boy.

The boy seemed to squirm around as she had stopped him. "Oi, Bozu, where's you mommy and daddy?" She asked as the boy stopped flailing his arms about, his happy expression made it hard to believe his words. "I gots no mama and papa" The boy replied as she seemed a bit surprised. She was not expecting for a boy to have no parents, especially in Konoha, or maybe she had overlooked that. "How old are you? And what's your name?" She asked the boy, as she grabbed his small hands that were covered by the sleeves.

The boy looked at Ino and smiled widely and cheery. "I am... nine! And my name is... Narumi, but you can call me Narunaru." He said happily as he wrapped his small arms around Ino's neck. The blonde could not help but embrace the boy and fail a slight pain in her chest. "I'm Ino... are you hungry Naru-chan?" She asked with a smile on her lips as she half broke the hug and looked into his golden ebons. Narumi shook his head but his stomach said something. They both chukled and Ino picked the boy up, since he was quite a shorty and did not weight much. "Your stomach spoke for you. Ill treat you to some breakfast." She said as the boy wrapped her arms around her neck and rated his head on her shoulder. The blonde felt weird and like a mother at the same time, a shiver ran down her back, but kept on going.

Once they got there, the place was still closed but she knocked eitherway. The owner of the place was a friend of Ino's that went to the flower shop quite often. However, the owner was quite peculiar. As the blonde knocked, an elderly woman came out, wearing a traditional kimono. Ino bowed her head in respect. "Goodmorning Obaa-san." The blonde smiled as well as the elder. "Morning Ino-chan, what brings you here?" She asked as the elder seemed to be a bit bad with her sight. "I have a favor to ask of you, Obaa-san." The blonde relied as the elder notice what she had in her arms. The elder nodded and went in.

Once inside the elder went to the kitched and started preparing something. As she did Ino sat the boy down on a chai and smiled at him. "Don't worry, Obaa-san is very nice, and she cook very well too." She grinned and the boy just nodded, his legs dangling from the chair, and moving about. The blonde got up and went towards the elder. "Obaa-san... I know this is much to ask of you... but do you think you can take care of him?" She asked as the elder cooked and pondered on the request. "Ino-chan, you have a good heart, and I am an old woman. I cannot do much for him, but I am sure I can help. I am alone here and the boy's company might do me some good. But... I shall keep him in one condition." The elder spoke, the blonde felt happy. "Anything you ask i'll do." Ino said as she awaited for the elder to speak. "I want for you to come and play with him when you have free time. I think he might see you as a Nee-san and I'm sure he'll like it." The elder said as she started to serve the food for the boy. "I accept, I'll come and visit when I have the time." The blonde agreed as the elder took the food to the boy.

They both sat down, Ino beside the boy, the elder across from Ino. "Naru-chan..." She said as Narumi looked up at her with crumbles of rice in his mouth. "I have to go do some errands, Obaa-san is going to take care of you. I promise to come back later on so we can play." She said a sad smile crossing her lips. "Alright Ino-nee-san. But come back soon."He said as he smiled brightly at her, his arms wrapping about her waist. Ino embraced him as well as she kissed the top of his head and broke the hug. "Be good now, and listen to Obaa-san" She said as she stood up and headed for the door, the elder followed. The blonde came to a stop and hugged the else. "Thank you, i'll come back later." She said as she started to run, then coming to a stop and waving back. The blonde walked now and wondered what next wierd thing would happen to her.

|Not my best work of writing. u.u Sorry but yeah. I'll do better next time.|

[Lady Tsunade]

Tsunade

The office was quiet except for the scratching of a fast pen as Tsunade tried to get through her work for they had a special guest outside the village at the closest gambling establishment which of course despite her luck she was quite hooked in the pass time and often had small matches of Poker with Shizune usually losing a huge chunk of cash once she got Shizune to except only to borrow the money again in a later date. Tsunade sighed as she glanced at a paper for a mission to help a woman watch a group of children and she sighed and approved it not wanting to fill out the paper work to go into further detail. Her eyes glanced at the clock and then back to the papers going on with paper work was so boring and she questioned taking the job several times in her head but she had an answer.

After a few minutes of reading over another mission a pretty big order that was in an inn outside of time that needed the works. The hot springs needed to be filtered the floors cleaned and polished and a pile of other things. "Naruto said he needed some more money i do believe."Tsunade said to herself smiling. "Shizune!"Tsunade called out to her assistant of sorts as the woman walked in a somewhat startled look on her face. "What is it Lady Tsunade?"Shizune asked as Tsunade stood up pushing her chair back and walking up to Shizune.

Tsunade handed the paper over a smirk on her face. "Do me a favor and take this and give it to Naruto, Tell him it's for complaining about his money problems."Tsunade said amused as she past her and stopped at the door. "You know were i'll be."She said simply as an invitation to join her or so much as to stop her from losing all the money she had in one night. With that she set out rather quickly on her short trip to where her name was mixed with the title 'The legendary loser' which wasn't exactly the name she had hoped for when she took up the hobby years ago.
