Rise of Dredge the Inu-nin
Some may argue, that this isn't my story. Yet i was there to witness and record the unfolding events, so I am part of the story, as much as any chronicler is the part of a story his quill writes on the scrolls. This story hasn't unfolded on a day, nor a week. And to tell you the truth, it's still haven't reached definite conclusion, as each passing day adds more chapters to it. What I can show you is the beginning. The beginning of the ninja road of a splendid shinobi named Dredge.
Despite the introducition, this story begins directly with Tekkey Hinode. Once upon a time he had a pretty darn good day, being named winner of the Leaf's first rock-paper-scissors tournament. After emotions passed, he decided to pay back the Lady Luck by passing back the good karma.
He took the usual spot in the Leaf village's forest, next to a favourite rock of the sorely missed @Saku the Healer, the man who taught him the basic of the medic craft. Honoring his memory, Hinode medic would often help with healing jutsu and advices on shinobi life to the clueless young ninja. The man he met in the forest on that particular day was someone, he already heard about. @Bakushin, the clay soldier, Tekkey's ongoing experiment, has reported his master about the training session that unfolded just a few day ago in the nearby area of Leaf's training grounds. The team of young genins and their chuunin supervisor @Ljones were ambushed by the full squad of the sand assasins, yet somehow were able to triumph without taking a single casualty. One of those promising student's was Dredge, the jutsu earth user.
With just a short talk and observing his wolf extermination progress, Hinode confirmed that young ninja indeed had potential to become one of Konoha's best shinobi. But like many, mostly declared enemies, like to repeat over and over again - Leaf's true strenght lies in numbers. Dredge needed a teammates, with whom he could form a three man squad, that would stick together for good and for worst. Fortunately, Tekkey already had in mind someone to recommend. His final opponent in the rock-paper-scissors tournament was a young ninja, barely graduate of the academy. Man with such luck, that any hazard game seemed like a trifle. And indeed, responding to the Tekkey's request of assistance, @Lastant, the water user, arrived at the wolf infested area nearly on the same time, as the intended overvisior of the forming team.
Despite still being genin, no one could deny tons of experience to @Kekiro Hayashi, former Duke of Tanzaku. He quickly grasped the situation, analyzed the team composition and recommended on finding a medic as their last teammate. That's when Lastan't luck really shined - the next person that entered the forest was a medic @Kotarou, who happily joined the team.
With Kekiro's advices, the youngling's teamwork quickly improved. Enough, that Lord Hokage deemed them worthy of undertaking the white tiger hunt on the dangerous islands of the west. Tekkey sticked with genins mostly for his own amusement and to administer emergency first aid, in case any of the exterminators fainted due to bloodloss. While everything was coming nicely, trouble were already on them. Sensing faint chakra signal nearby, Hinode unleased the sensory technique, breaking the cloaking jutsus of two enemy shonobi. In the ensuing combat, the Leaf ninja faced the invaders and won, yet again not losing a single soul. Lastant, who got the worst of the injuries and briefly fainted, thanks to his luck again, was patched right back to shape with the efforts of the present medics. Some of that good luck must have rubben on Dredge, as not even few days later he shocked Bakushin with the revelation, that he succesfully formed pact with a summon animal. The puppy named Anubis, would become the ninja's trusted companion. Together they both took regulary took part on the Leaf's Military Police patrols, in hope of getting granted admission into the police force. And even strick police captain Kekiro didn't have the heart, to deny this chance to his own disciple.
And so almost ends the story of young earth user Dredge, with big dreams and the drive to pursue them with the help of luck, skill and dedication. Yet even ending, has some beginning. This story's ending starts with...
Unappointed, Dredge suddenly showed in the Hinode clan's headquarters in Tanzaku, requesting adoption into their ranks. Tekkey witnessed this on sheer luck, as he was taking a day off of ninja duty and was simply visiting his Hinode relatives serving as guards to Lady Kasai, the Fire Lord of the Land of Fire. And while the clan derives from the samurai of the Land of Iron, it is welcoming to the outstanding individuals sharing the Hinode's ideals and creed. Once upon a time, Tekkey himself was one of them. After the thorough and intricate questioning, Dredge was deeemed worthy of joining the family and pledged himself to the service. So truly ends the story of the Dredge, the earth user. And so begins the story of the @Dredge Hinode, the defender of the Leaf village.
This is the story of Dredge and Anubis, the Beastly Duo of the Leaf Village. But first we must start in the land of Earth, where Dredge was born. His family owned a quarry, they had helped to build many of the materials for buildings found in all of the great hidden villages. For this reason some shinobi considered his family to be a threat to the integrity of those very buildings and were planned to be assassinated.
Dredge was not home at the time of this attack which left none of his family alive. He was down at a river trying to practice water jutsu. When he had returned to find his family murdered, he vowed to master his family's earth style jutsu and track down the shinobi responsible.
After many years of traveling and gathering information, he discovered that the one village that did not try to kill his family was the village hidden in the leaves. He came to the village and enrolled into their ninja academy. Although already experienced in earth ninjutsu, he dedicated himself to learning the ways of the Leaf Village to help him in his mission for retribution.
Along the way he made a lot of friends and was even acknowledged and accepted to join the family Hinode. He also successfully formed a blood pact with the ninken, Anubis. Ninja summoning dogs that come to fight with the ninja that summons them. Some other notable friends are Lastant, Chiyome, and Haste. His squad that undertakes missions together.
Eventually Dredge gave up his quest for revenge and joined the LMPF, where he and Anubis created the first K-9 unit. After sometime in the village and earning respect and recognition from their village Dredge and Anubis became known as The Beastly Duo of the Leaf by Dairuto sensei.
Memorable fights:
Doing mist spy on the mizukage office. Make it almost to the end when I hear a poof, a mist is logging in across the room from me as a sit on a couch. We see each other and immediately begin a long fight. The ninja, sutauto and I gave it our all! He an earth/bubble/fire against me and Anubis with my earth (yes I was able to summon inside the office during the fight). The fight lasted until my spying was complete. Once he knocked out Anubis he thought it would be short work to dispatch me but I showed him the power of my earth, subbing many of his attacks and even using his fire wall at one point to deliver deadly spikes to his back with my sub. All in all a heart thumping battle beginning to end with me coming out the loser in battle but the winner in comraderie
.
At snakes, I've just finished recharging and healing when I see a poof in front of me...enemy ninja logging on? Yup masked. I hit with a pillar, then the fight is on. Running around in a tight corridor there is more to be careful about then just the enemy ninja subbing all over the place(apparent when he used bubble jutsu) there are snakes as well. I misstep and land in range of his jutsu, but I luckily sub that easily but he gets me with a water prison. Stuck in place fearing for my life I did the only thing I could do....I flicker to him and side step his water shark! While he runs from me and a snake now hot on his trail I summon Anubis and go on the offensive. I hit him with another pillar but he subbed again and I finally lock him with my EP while Anubis finished him off. Unmasking his corpse I discover it was Savi the rogue sand ninja.
.
As I stood at Guard Duty training Anubis with Jero, young Alab came up asking about a glacier bear hunt. Little did I know it would turn into a fight for our lives. As we crossed through Chakra Forest we ran into Nagareboshi, a wanted rogue ninja from our very own village. Instead of trying to fight in the sense forest we moved the fight to Dark Bridge where we thought we could have an advantage. However, this was not the first time I had faced Nagareboshi and him and I have looked forward to this day for a long time. Alab and I drove him back to the South side of the bridge until Anubis could rejoin us from his potty break in the forest. He tried to escape but we wouldn't let him. Many times finding him in a tree. Weakened from the fight that seemed to go on for ages he thought if he could just take me out he would have succeeded. I ran across the bridge waiting for my pillar to cool down as Alab chased behind with Anubis. And just as Nagareboshi reached me I hit him with a pillar to end the fight. But I assure you this will only add to our rivalry.
Haste and I had completed all of our missions for the day and were just about to have some well deserved R&R. Bogdan came to us and asked if we would accompany him for his survey mission of the sand gates. We said ok and set out to the Village hidden in the sand. We made it to the gates with little trouble aside from some tigers. Having almost finished his survey without incident we began to leave when Irksoy came up and attacked me. Having been poisoned I get knocked unconscious while hearing Bogdan try to reason with our attacker and Haste defending in the best way she knows how: aggressively. As I'm about to fade out I feel the Will of Fire and rise to my feet as Bogdan is knocked unconscious. I take off to hide in a scorpion hole while I heal. But I couldn't let my squad mate be another victim to Irksoy so the Beastly Duo returned to assist Haste who was one hit from passing out! An epic battle continues as all three of us connect with many jutsu. But as all fights do it came to an end. I cloaked chasing down our enemy and hit with a pillar and then flicker spikes and as I run away with Irksoy in pursuit Haste finishes him with a water prison. We walk away and heal and finally make it back to the village for some much needed R&R.
Met up with esty and Tekkey at guard duty. I told them I needed one more kill for WW, meanwhile, esty needed 4. I agreed to help him with his if he helped me with mine. We heard of a disturbance at mini so we grouped at L1 and ran into Killer Beat. Now having a full squad we set out. We found nobody on our way in CF, DB, DS...we didn't find anyone until we got to KB, one person. That turned into two and four. We held them off and we're falling back to our medics for heals them from the East side of the map a group of rogues with a medic joined the fight all trying to kill leaf! Our medics fell but quickly recovered one another, Esty fell once but could not be saved so I had Anubis quickly TP Him to the hospital akd rejoin us. My health dropped low several times but the medics refused to let me fall, all in all we held that bridge for about 20 mins, got all the kills we needed for both of our missions and I received 3 bounties.
Heading into DF for WW I can across misaelp alone. I chased him down until he escaped into snakes map. I checked snakes and saw no disturbance but once I came out there he was, not alone. He had with him peperoni Johnson, the police chief of the SMPF. Anubis and I immediately attacked peperoni. As Anubis distracted him I targeted misaelp and stunned him with an earth split. Then I had to flicker to him to avoid peperoni's attack! Next I hit misaelp with an earth pillar and then finally flicker spikes for the kill. Then I ran to a tree cloaked while Anubis attacked peperoni Johnson and started to map change. Anubis ran off and I escaped clean with a kill towards ww and all of my hp still intact. I came back once my cloak wore off to see peperoni Johnson attacking wildly under trees but he would not find me as I escaped once again to return home.
While exploring a cave to the Southwest of the Leaf Village I was surprised by Kaen, a ni ja from the village hidden in the mist. Before I could respond Anubis jumped into action. Being very skilled with a blade it was difficult to get near Kaen, until Anubis unleashed his fuuma shuriken. Having stopped Kaen from hitting me with a crescent blade I quickly turned the tables and used earth prison i tried to follow up with earth split for the combo but he subbed out of it! Then before my eyes Anubis got injured and fell, I began to fight harder as my companion was in trouble and I was now being focused more. Kaen continued to sub most of my jutsu until I landed a successful flicker spikes that almost finished him. Then finally after much chasing I finished him with a mud river. As I went to check on Anubis he was ok, no fatal damage. But Kaen had disappeared. I hope that one day we can meet again in combat.
