Yōsei Tanuki is the daughter of Ninfu Tanuki, the Dōkutsukage of the Village Hidden in the Caves. When her cousin Moya Tanuki comes to visit, Yōsei decides to travel with her cousin to the Village Hidden in the Leaves to further her skills and stud...
"She is!" Aunt Kiri exclaims happily. "If I remember correctly, she should be arriving today!" As soon as Aunt Kiri finishes her sentence, there's a knock on the door. Heizu and Deizu come rushing downstairs and go straight to the door. Heizu opens it up and the two little girls are instantly snatched up into a hug.
"Moya!" I exclaim. I get down from my seat and go to hug my older cousin.
"Yōsei!" Moya exclaims back. "Heizu, Deizu! Mom!" Moya greets us all and we all hug. "Is Aunt Ninfu here?"
"No," Aunt Kiri shakes her head. "She has some work to finish up. She should be home after lunch."
"Wonderful!" Moya claps her hands. "I've been wanting to talk to her about having Yōsei come and study with me in the Hidden Leaf's ninja academy."
"Really?!" I exclaim, smiling.
"Of course!" Moya responds. "Oh! I was able to unlock my Anaguma!"
"Awesome!" Heizu, Deizu, and I squeal at the same time.
"Great job, Moya!" Aunt Kiri smiles brightly at her oldest daughter. "What stage are they?"
"Only stage 2," Moya answers. "Although, it's my right eye that shows the stage."
"Ah," Aunt Kiri nods. "Seems like you've been practicing and using them."
"Yeah!" Moya nods her head. "I was so excited when I unlocked them that I just had to practice them.
"Show us!" Deizu squeals.
"Okay!" Moya laughs. Moya closes her eyes, sighs softly, and then opens them back up. In replace of her magenta eyes are half-white, half-black eyes. In the center of her right eye, Moya has a vibrant purple pupil.

"They're so cool!" Heizu squeals. "And pretty!"
"Not to mention how powerful they are!" Deizu agrees with her sister. Moya changes her eyes back to their normal magenta and rubs her sisters' heads.
"How'd you unlock them?" I inquire, tilting my head.
"Well," Moya states, thinking for a minute. "I was thinking about how to do a presentation on the Kekei Genkai of my clan. I thought that I might as well unlock my Anaguma and show them off. I also did a scroll that I wrote down tons of information about the Anaguma. I then transferred the most important parts to a poster to use in my presentation. I also drew the stages of the Anaguma on a separate poster."
"You're so organized and smart!" I exclaim, smiling brightly at my older cousin. We all laugh and Aunt Kiri has us four kids head to the market to pick up some food. We laugh and talk the whole time. Moya talks with some of her old friends for a few minutes while we're picking up fruits and vegetables.
We head back home and Aunt Kiri begins making lunch. Shortly after lunch is served, Mom returns home from the Office. "Moya!" Mom greets her oldest niece after giving me a big hug. "It's great to see you!"
"It's great to see you too, Aunt Ninfu!" Moya responds. The six of us eat our lunch and Moya talks to Mom about having me come back with her to the Hidden Leaf.
"Please, Mom?" I inquire, giving her my best puppy eyes.
"Of course!" Mom answers, smiling brightly. "It'll be a great way for you to practice your skills! Not to mention the Hidden Leaf has a wonderful ninja academy. The teachers are wonderful. I'll make sure you get put into the same class as Moya."
"Sounds like a plan," Moya smiles brightly. The two of us do our secret handshake and head upstairs.

Moya heads into her room to get changed into some sparing clothes, while I do the same. I go into my room and look through my training clothes. While I'm looking, I hear my window shatter to pieces and dodge a flying Kunai. I look toward the window, noticing a few more Kunai flying towards my room. I grab the Kunai that's already flown into my room to break the glass and use it to block the next five Kunai. I quickly put up a barrier over my window as ten more Kunai come flying towards my room.
I change out of my current outfit and into my training outfit. I pull on a long-sleeved deep purple high-collared shirt with pink at the end of the sleeves. I tuck my shirt into a pair of comfortable iron-grey mid-thigh length shorts. I wrap a deep, dark green obi around my waist, attaching a small beige pouch to my back waist. I buckle on my Kunai/Shuriken holder around my right thigh. I slip on a pair of mesh armor toeless socks with pastel blue around the top. I then slide on a pair of purple-black Shinobi sandals. To top off my outfit, I put on a dark teal headband to keep my bangs out of my face. (Ignore the Amaguma eyes for a bit)

As the Kunai hit the barrier, Moya comes barging into my room. "Are you alright?!" she exclaims.
"Yeah, I put up a barrier so I could change," I inform Moya, pointing at the sealed window. "Is everyone else okay?" The two of us exit my room and hurry down the stairs to the first floor.
"Yes," Moya nods her head. "Everyone is perfectly fine." I look up at her and notice that her eyes are half white and half black with a purple pupil in her right eye. "Mom, Aunt Ninfu, and I all have our Amaguma activated. Mom went with Aunt Ninfu to go see where those Kunai came from. Heizu and Deizu are safe in the Safe Room located behind the house. Our job to go protect them and any other children that have escaped through the secret tunnels built into the cave system of the village."
As she catches me up, Moya uses a Kunai to poke her left pointer finger, making it bleed. She puts it against a stone wall and the wall disappears. Once we enter the stone hallways, the door returns to a solid wall and we walk along the lantern-lit pathways to the safe house all of the stone hallways connect to.
