It's A fair sized village in the forest with it's own lake, a cold and more deep body of water. This village is seemingly always covered in darkness despite the time of day, like some sort of cloud hangs over it. Though no one has ever gotten close to it and lived to tell the tale, some say the village seems to have become even more dangerous recently...an aura of even greater power now hangs over it.
(Description couresty of Shikamaru, thanks pal!)
CURRENTLY TAKEN OVER AS KUSANAGI'S BASE OF OPERATION.

Inugami appeared in the dark village and couldn't see what was infront of him. He skidded to a stop and looked over to Kusanagi with a puzzled look. 'How can he live here if you can't see anything?' Inugami thought to himself and shrugged off the thought. He still couldn't figure out how he was to see in the dark. He looked over to Riddick and then to the two others. He took a few steps back and stopped next by the girl. He leaned over and whispered in her ear.
"Must suck to be the only female in the group huh?"
Inugami leant back and looked at her with a soft smile. Although the smile was fake, it was used as a shield to hide his true feelings for his life. All through his life he used a fake smile to hide the pain he felt inside. Hopefully being with these guys for long would change his look on life.

Riddick stopped in fron of the dark village. "Hey inugami remember when I told you to rely on your other senses. Well you can know." Riddick smiled and started to walk into the village. He was really tired. This last day or so has been rough.

(emotastic post Shika)
Akara walked making sure her every step was right. It was hard to see and she'd rather not step on something that would bite or attack. Akara knew however if it attacked, she'd kill it anyway.
'It must suck to be the only female in the group.'
Akara turned, slightly able to see Inugami's outline in the darkness. "Yes being the only female can be quite annoying." Akara whispered. She kept her ears pricked and her senses aware, she kept listening, she was ready for anything.

(Thanks. I try)
He laughed to himself as he stepped forward and tripped on a rock. He landed on his face and sat up holding it. He heard what Riddick said and rubbed the dirt off his face. 'Now he tells me.' Inugami stood up and sniffed the air. He had the scent of the group but knowing the scent of his surroundings didn't help much.
"Alright. Can we go in now. It's kinda creepy out here."
Inugami listened to the noises around him and shivered alittle. 'Man I hate the dark.' he thought to himself and sighed

(lol)
Akara laughed a bit as she felt a shake in the ground as Inugami fell. " You need to watch your step." Akara said, in the nicest tone she could, which was more icy than nice. Akara put her hand to a tree and followed it to the end when something slippery crossed her hand. Instincts instantly had her pull out a needle and stab it. Akara could tell it was a small snake from the texture. Feeling up towards the snakes head she found out it was venomous. "Watch out, poisonous snakes are around her." She announced in a soft tone.

Riddick smiled. He then said. "Oh theres much more than poisonous snakes around here." Riddick then stopped and said. "There's a couple of houses along here. Take your pick. The last one is mine however.Goodnight." With that riddick went down,entered his house,and there was no sound coming from the house.

Ryoushi's eyes reflected nothing, only darkness entering. Hardly anything was visible, however his gargantuan sword reflected off a tendril of moonlight. He turned to the kid, a nonchalant expression on his face. "You better get used to it kid...in fact, it will most likely aid you in your training." Ryoushi nodded, himself remembering how the darkness had helped him. For it forged a reliance on ones other senses, increasing ones latent ability. His eyes remained useful however, and he was now twice as dangerous in an all too famous "Night Fight."
The Teenage Jounin smirked, "Theres more than a couple houses around here, obviously you're not here to often." His fingers melded togehter perfectly, forming a dispel signal. At once a genjutsu lifted, a large structure now barely visible. Torche's inside flickered, forming shadows that danced off each of the members faces. For noise could be heard from inside, some screams...and others laughs.
Ryoushi walked across an arched brige, it overlaying a large body of water. The structure was made of a white marbal, itself surrounded by atleast 50 barely lit houses. The residential houses consisted of the Jingoku, or hell squad that Riddick held a rank in. Most of them were Chunnin level nin's, farely skilled warriors that ended up here by some odd end or another. Kusanagi's structure, the main one was where they were most likely going to bring Inugami. For the building held five large columns, supproting a vast dome that shaped a orb of white marble that reflected off the moonlight. For Ryoushi and other high ranking officials usuallly stayed here, since the seven swordsmen by some odd reason had been roped into Kusanagi's grand sceam.
For there were various lost soles being tortured upon, Kusanagi forging a new darkness into the name evil. Chakra from the very corners of darkness lay here, and Ryoushi knew...that Kusanagi's top priority was to obtain it. He opened the large wooden door, keeping it ajar for his employer, Ingumai, and Akara. A sharp scream rang out, and his face cringed, resting the sword hard on the marble floor. "Keep it down will ya." Ryoushi let out, that all known smile clear on his face. The main room was grandly lit, an overhanging chandelire illuminating the room. For Kusanagi no doubt didn't have a taste, let alone cared for such things...but his underlings must have thought it was better to assume so. Ryoushi sighed, for they were in possetion of dozens of Konoha's secret scrolls...ones that made himself and Kusanagi twice as powerful. "I take it Inugami will be staying in the absent room?" Ryoushi asked, waiting for Kusanagi's reply. He replaced the Genjutsu, shielding it from the unaided eye. Ryoushi let out an akward laugh, "Hey Kusanagi...care to commence in the testing? No doubt one of those scrolls will help in the process, I think I know just the one." Ryoushi let out, walking down a spiral staircase out of view. "I'll be waiting for you there." Ryoushi's voice rang out, his steps echoing from below.

"Ch if you're trying to scare me Riddick you can stop because it wont work." Akara spat angrily. 'Houses?' Akara thought. 'Seems like an odd place to have houses.' Akara felt the handle and opened the door. "Which ever one this one is I'll take it." Akara anounced.
This first thing she noticed about the house was the swinging lanturn, the only source for light. She found a match and lit it, illuminating the house. Under the lanturn was a simple flat table and a few pillows to sit on around it. In the corner was a small mat with a sheet to sleep on. There were no decorations on the wall except for the shelves containing bottles of foods or herbs, or poisons. Akara liked things this way, it was simpiler and less of a clutter.

Inugami watched the figure of akara walk towards one of the small homes and he looked puzled. 'Girls are really confusing. She seems cold at one moment. The she laughs. And then she gets all isolated and mysterious.' He shrugged off his thoughts and followed behind Ryoushi to the over looking structure. Inugami looked up and then looked at Ryoushi with a slight glare. ' He isn't that older than me and he calls me a kid. hmmpfh' Inugami once again shrugged it off and continued to follow him. As he followed him into the structure he heard the loud pitched scream and he covered his ears.
"How can anyone sleep in a place like this? I don't want to wake up to a scream every night. That would be very annoying."
Inugami felt a dark cold presence in the air when he entered the place and shivered abit. The smell of death was reaking through the halls and Inugami took a breath of despair. 'This place is like hell.' he thought to himself and walked in deeper. He waited for kusanagi to take the lead and sat against a wall kneeling.
"Oi. When do I start my training? I want to get stronger before I see those Akatsuki goons again."

Akara smiled to herself. She reached under a shelf and pulled out a box. She opened the box and pulled out a new mask. Akara smiled softly again. Strapping the mask to her side she walked out of the house with the lanturn so she could see. Once she saw where the large house was she hung her lamp outside the door and walked toward the masion styled house.
Inside she found Inugami, Kusanagi and Ryoushi standing around. Akara shook her head and sighed at Inugami. "You ask for training like it's an easy task." Akara said shooting him a warning glance, telling him he should never just demand things like that from Kusanagi. Kusanagi had a different way of interpreting things, even if you meant well he could take it a whole other way.

Kusanagi nodded vaguly at Ryoushi as he passed. "Yes, Inugami shall take our empty room. We may need to add more to the building before the month is done." Kusanagi closed his eyes briefly in irritation, just as Akara made her comment to Inugami, giving him a not-so-subtile glance. Kusanagi tilted his head to the side for a moment, crimson eyes not bothered by the darkness. "Take him to the training room- there should be some equipment around. Though, I would suggest giving him a spar or two, Akara. You could both use some getting used to fighting in the dark, I'm sure. And Riddick...you are dismissed after you escort the two to the training room. Do what you please, but you are not to bother me tonight. Unless, of course, we have some unexplected visitors." Sending one last glance at the three, Kusanagi followed Ryoushi down the staircase.

Ryoushi sat on a lone experimentation table. The dark, dank room provided no comfort as teh smell of death exuded from all around. He was somewhat nervous now, but complety ready for the experimentation. For he would either become horribly deformed and submit to a life of pain, or be granted immortal power...a power unseen. However Kusanagi had complete control of this power, so Ryoushi would be forced to use it to how he saw fit.
His artic eyes seemed to glow in the dark room, a single candle reflecting off a resting gargantuan sword. Ryoushi waited patiently, sighing as he rested his head against the stone wall. He said nothing...only waiting for the inevitable.
(sorry for the bad post...brain is a bit tired from Homework.)

Kusanagi walked delibrately towards Ryoushi, crimson eyes narrowed. His dark cloak swayed behind him, as though caught in a dark storm. It was time. Kusanagi stood in front of his underling, and red eyes snapped shut, as fists clenched tightly. With a quick florish, Kusanagi held a kunai in his hand. Attached to the end was a slip of paper, symbols upon it the brownish-red of blood. Without hesitation, Kusanagi sliced open first his left hand, then his right. For a moment the symbols glowed an errie dark red, before fading into black.
Kusanagi knealed down, palms facing flat against the stone floor. His eyes opened once more, a dark fire brewing inside. The dark man took in a deep breath, before releasing it quickly. Dark colored lightning crackled around his hands, before the stones beneath his hands began to shift and melt. Suddenly they gave way, revieveal a dark circle of pure chakra. Kusanagi's hands remained where they were, even as the circle dove below the ground, leaving a gapping dark hole, navy blue lightning traveling around the edge.
Only then did Kusangi move his hands, reaching down into the hole to grab a pure black chain. The dark nin stood, straining slightly as he forced the chain up. A human shaped head slowly appeared from the top of the hole. It's black hair was mused and wild, tinged with a dark blue. It's face was completely covered by bandages, except for the eyes. The terrible eyes which were all black with orange-yellow irises. As it slowly rose from the dark portal, it revealed the black chain was wrapped around it's neck and waist. It's chest was like a man's, and bandages wrapped themselves around his arms and stomach, morbid scars gouged deep into it's flesh. Bandages wrapped around both legs, pinning them together, but somehow it managed to stand evenly on the dark chakra.
At first the creature lunged at Ryoushi, but Kusangi held strong to the chain, sending a burst of electricity through the metal restraint. The creature howled- a terrible mixture of a sceech and a roar- before, bowing it's head in submission. Without warning the creature thrust one of it's hands through Ryoushi's chest, as though it were mud instead of flesh. Dark-blue hand lay even with his heart. Dark chakra drove through in waves, being absorbed into Ryoushi.
And suddenly, the creature extracted it's hand, eyes glinting in a mixture of submission and bitterness. With a tug the creature was sinking back into the hell hole of which it came. Kusanagi released the chain, and lay his hands back onto the hole. The dark chakra pulsed three times, before absorbing back into the ninja's hands. Kusanagi took a step back, breathing heavily. The Kagai Summoning took a lot of chakra, but it was worth it.
Kusanagi's gaze switched to Ryoushi. His face had changed, as his eyes were now black with yellow irises. On his cheeks twin black marks slashed dowards. With these marks came the Kagai Manako, or the evil eye. This allowed the user to sence the darkness in a person's heart, and turning it into a physical pain. The more darkness, the more pain. Kusanagi smirked.
Perfect...

Inugami looked at Akara with a dark look. He then looked to the side with a sneer as he stood to his feet.
"Why are you here anyway? Shouldn't you be painting your nails.. or restocking your needles?"
Inugami laughed to himself as he heard what Kusanagi said. 'I gotta spar with her. Atleast now I can kick her butt with reason' He thought to himself and smirked cracking his knuckles. He looked over to her with a fake smile and bowed his head.
"You lead the way. Ladies first."
