[RL with Orochimaru: Fearless...]

[not_blind]

Clary had many pictures of various worlds drawn and kept in a special portfolio in her room. Some were of the few places she had visited, and others were only of worlds she had seen others speak of and researched herself. Each picture was hand drawn and nearly flawless in detail, as was Clary's talent. She had plenty of pictures of certain worlds,

Orochimaru didn't exactly underestimate this girl. No, that would mean he would display a sort of pity by playing nice. He had no obligation to this little brat. She'd done nothing but taunt him since his arrival and frankly, the constant buzzing coming from this fly was driving him over the edge. He did not like constant ridicule. He was probably more than forty years older than Clary, with a far more extensive list of abilities.

Okay, heh. So maybe he was underestimating her just a little.

Currently, "he" sat on the edge of a tall jagged rock, which pierced the center of the river, unsettled ripples of water streaming around it. He tapped his fingers impatiently on the cool moist surface of the stone.

Though, the creature perched upon the rock was not the real snake. No. The Sannin himself stood about a kilometer back, standing atop the highest branch of a tree. Orochimaru was going to observe the playing children for a bit and make a decent attempt at figuring out their weaknesses. It would be fun to start out with a

As Clary walked through the forest that surrounded the Hidden Leaf village she couldn't help but notice how peaceful it was. The trees were beautiful. They looked so alive, so healthy. Nothing like what she had seen back home, but she had grown up in a large city. Their wildlife was forced, barely natural anymore. The wildlife here was a product of the earth itself, no added chemicals. It looked amazing and intrigued her inner artist. Maybe, if she ever got the chance, she would come back and paint the scenery as she saw it. She wondered if she would get the chance, though

The real Orochimaru smirked slightly as he continued to keep his balance. Silently, he hopped his way closer to the scene, now only a few trees back. Though still masked by the massive amounts of branches, he was able to get a better view of the situation. He scoffed slightly at the sight of her. So she really was just a girl? How disappointing. Though, her witty mouth would say otherwise. Unfortunately, that wouldn't save her in this situation.

Normally, Orochimaru would continue to avoid this girl's taunts but as of recently, he was on edge. What with the rather unfortunate "experience" with Tobi and then the virus right afterwards... it was too much. He did indeed, plan on relieving his stress on somebody else, and already the search for volunteers was becoming easier. Despite his massive amounts of enemies, those who did serve under him typically displayed nothing but submission. That was of course, if they showed any defiance he would kill them

Clary smirked. He had done exactly as she expected him to. The black marks, that could have been mistaken for tribal tattoos, burned on Clary's skin with the expectation to be used. And now she put them in action. Her enhanced speed from the angel blood that coursed through her veins increased as Orochimaru appeared behind her. She was out of reach of the arms in a matter of moments. She dropped to the ground to make sure they didn't wrap around her and she readied herself for her next move
