(Anyone can join this. Rules are no godmodding and no cheating.)
Ryu walked the quiet streets of the town. His eyes searched the empty alleys and blood stained streets for anyone still living. His search was in vain. No one was in this town.
"Some how I figured this would happen." He said quietly to himself.
Nothing stirred throughout the town, exept for some trash blown around by the wind. Ryu stood in the street for a little while, before finally walking off to a building. He sat down and leaned up against the wall, closing his eyes and allowing his mind to somewhat wonder.

((Hope you dun mind me joining Ryu. You were kinda vague in your intro so I assumed that it was a modern day city. If I'm wrong then do inform me and I'll modify the post.))
"No Way!!" Kenta screamed in defiance. "I'm not going out there! I'm on vacation!!"
"You'll be on a permanent vacation if you dont suit up." responded a tall old man who stood before him.
His bags had aready been packed and he had already dressed himself in a white pants and floral shirt. He adjusted his sunglasses over his eyes as he stared at the old man quizzically.
"But why should I go?" he asked. "We have no proof that a demon did it."
"That is true, thats why were sending you to investigate. All we know for sure is that the town once had life and now its all gone."
Kenta leaned back in his seat and folded his arms. This always happened to him. And of all the times for it to happen, when he was supposed to be relaxing.
"Kenta, you know the reason were sending you is because you have the best chance of gathering the information we need without being seen."
Kenta just shrugged and looked away without saying a word. He bowed his head and closed his eyes, ignoring what the man was saying.
"We also need to search for any survivors. And if there are any, address that person appropriately."
The old man adjusted a white robe he wore over his shoulder and looked down at Kenta's motionless state.
"Kenta!! Are you paying Attention!?!?"
The black haired young man jumped from his sleep and fell on the floor. He rose and rubbed his aching face before turning his eyes to the old ninja.
"How disgraceful," the old man began, "I hope you never put on such a display in public. A ninja falling on his face? That would make our dojo a laughing stock."
"Oh shut up Rhayoun," Kenta barked. "I'll do it already, just stop nagging!"
Though it appeared that this was a request, it was an order. Rhayoun was one of the eldest at the dojo and had defeated many powerful adversaries in his time. Much like the other elders, he chose to retire and act as a guide for the younger nin rather than become an instructor. And though his means of dealing with his subbordinates are unusual, due to the fact that he treats them all as his equals earn him a great amount of respect from the lower classes, while creating discontent in the higher ranks.
"Great!" said the old man with a smile. "I expect you through that door in a few minutes then."
"Huh?" said the fully geared up Kenta as he was going through the door. "You say something?"
Rhayoun chuckled at the sight and shook his head then walked over to the sword rack and picked one randomly.
"Here!" he said tossing him the weapon. "You might need this."
"For a rekon mission?"
"Like I said, we dont know what happened there. Whatever it is may still be lurking."
"Uh...yeah....sure..."
With that he vanished from sight, travelling as fast as he could towards the deserted town. Alas, his vacation cut short before it began; he was once again on clean up duty. This sucked!

(( yeah your post is fine. Sorry for having it so vague, I havent role played for about 3 months so it might take some time for me to warm up. The town is pretty modern but most of the buildings in it are partially destroyed. If you need more details on the town just ask me. Also if anyone else wants to join then go right ahead.))
Ryu was still sitting up against the wall of the collapsed building. His bow and quiver sat on the ground next to him, the arrows glowing with a slight white aura. This was nothing new to Ryu, after all, he was the one asked for a preist to bless them. He ignored the glowing and kept his eyes closed, trying to get as much rest as he could.
"This is the second city I've found like this.....Deserted and demolished....Only difference is there are no demons this time...Wonder what happened.." He spoke quietly to himself.
Ryu opened his eyes and did a quick scan of the area, just to check if anything had changed. Seeing nothing, he closed them once more and allowing himself to rest a bit longer.
(( Sorry for the bad post...Just be a little lenient with me for the time being ))

Behind a building a black spot could be seen. A shadow within a shadow, as unlikely as it may appear, seemed to be moving vertically along its walls. At the top a figure dressed only in black jumped from the hiding place and walked to the edge of the roof, looking over.
The damaged buildings and blood stains everywhere were a tell tale sign of evil. This was no doubt the work of Youkai. As his eyes moved around the city, he found them drifting closer to the bottom of the large structure until he saw someone resting beneath.
'I-Is that a demon?' he thought to himself as he reached down for a rock.
He wouldnt be able to tell what it was from so high so he decided to try and get it out into the open. He lifted his hand and held the rock above the figure, then in a quick motion he launched it down instead of simply releasing it. Surely it would get that creature's attention.

Ryu's eyes shot open as the rock left Kenta's hand. To the trained senses the rock could be easily heard as it ripped through the air. Ryu kept his eyes closed, but shot his hand up, catching the rock before it came close to his head. He lightly tossed the rock at the wall infront of him and waited for his attacker to speak. However, he was un noticably chargeing energy just incase it was a fight his attacker was looking for.

"No way could a normal person do that," Kenta said to himself. "Thats gotta be a demon."
He took a step back from the edge and quickly charged and jumped off onto the ground far below. A small amount of black smoke appeared around his feet upon landing and he drew his sword and pointed it at the one before him.
"Nice display demon but you have to pay for what your brethren did to this place."
He brought his left hand behind him and in a flick of the wrist three shuriken appeared in his palm. He then swung his arm around with moderate force and sent them all straight at this person, intending not to cause harm but drive him out.

((Ok thanks, what the plot and all that?))
Draven was standing a few blocks away walking down the street. "Dam I hate it when I arrived in cities like this, there is never any food."

Ryu shot his raised hand down infront of him, catching the shuriken perfectly between his fingers. With a flick of his wrist he launched them back at Kenta, only now with a slight increase in speed.
"If you think I'm a demon...I'm afraid your mistaken...I'm about as human as you can get."
(( if the shuriken werent intended to hit him then I'll retype ))

Using his sword Kenta easily deflected the oncoming shuriken though the increased speed caused his blade to ring with each impact. This had never happened before and this just convinced him even more that this person isnt normal.
"Human? Dont make me laugh."
Kenta readied another wave of shuriken in his left hand and stared at the black clothed stranger.
"No human here can do what I saw you do. Your just a demon dressed up like us!"
With that, he created a wall of darkness between the two then launched his shurikens from behind its protection.

"Beleive what you want....I'm Ryu Hayabusa, Greatest ninja from the Masamura Dojo." He replied, not really in the mood for talk.
Ryu swiftly leapt up high into the air, landing on the roof top above him. The shuriken slammed into the wall, completely missing Ryu, and became lodged inside it. He reached both of his hands down the the shuriken on his legs, sliding the handles between his fingers. He pulled them from their small holsters and raised his arms, crossing them, to his head.((so left hand is by right ear and right hand is by left ear)) Ryu's arms shot forward, releasing the dagger-like shuriken at Kenta. He wasn't trying to kill him, mostly trying to prove he was human. The shuriken flew through the air at an extremely high speed, into the black smoke. The shuriken flew toward seperate points in the smoke to make sure that he didnt miss his target. Once his hands were free, Ryu reached his hand back and drew his prized dragon blade. He held the sacred katana infront of him, gazeing at it's glowing blade. He quickly took his attention off the blade and lowered it down to his side, now looking into the smoke waiting for his attacker to say something else, more preferably that he beleives that Ryu is a human.

From behind his wall of darkness he held his katana in both hands. His mind raced, wondering when that person would react when a shuriken shot past him barely missing his left side.
"What the..?"
He jumped back and did a backflip, dodging a few and using his weapon to deflect another two before getting scratched on his the right side of his neck. His right hand went up and covered the small wound and he stared into the darknes before him. How could he have made such a stupid mistake? Attacking from behind a wall of darkness worked well for him but it could work both ways.
"d**n," he scoffed as he removed his hand and looked at the small amount of blood. "I underestimated him."
He looked up at his wall and narrowed his eyes then crouched and placed his palm flat on the ground. The wall errupted like a wave and grew higher and spread in a circular shape until it surrounded the building on all four sides.
This done, Kenta dashed in and jumped into the darkness; becoming one with his creation. His body merged and vanished from existence for a moment as he travelled within the thin wall up the length of the building and stopped at the top. From his position behind Ryu he launched three shuriken, aimed at his neck, left arm, and right ankle, then flew within the darkness around the entire width of the structure in an instant. Kenta emerged from the darkness, returning to the physical plane, with a downward slash aimed at his chest using a kunai; his sword already sheathed and placed on his back.

Ryu raised his right hand up to his masked face (about nose level), only his index finger and middle finger were extended along with his thumb which was parrellel to them. With that, a large cloud of black smoke erupted around him, completely masking him from Kenta's eyes. Two of the shurriken ripped through the smoke and continued going, as if they completely missed. The smoke soon scattered reveiling the spot were Ryu once stood. All that was there was air. Ryu had vannished. On the ground, next to the building, another burst of smoke appeared, it cleared quickly, just as the last one, only this time Ryu was standing in the center, his left hand holding his katana, and with his right hand covering an open wound on the upper part of his left arm.
"I never was good at that move....need more practice." He chuckled, as if the wound didnt even phase him.
He turned around and looked back up at the building, waiting for his attackers next move, if he was to attempt one. Even though he played the wound off, Ryu felt an emence amount of pain around the shurriken still stuck in his arm.
"Here you go. I'm bleeding. Is this human enough for ya?"

Kenta landed only to see that his target had vanished.
"Tch! Where'd that monster run off to now?"
He unsheathed his Katana and in a flick of the wrist, the kunai vanished. With a swing of his left arm, the dark barrier dissipated and Kenta cautiously walked to the edge and looked over to see if he had gone back down.Just as he thought, he was on the ground. His eyes narrowed and he jumped from the height onto the ground below, small clouds of smoke forming around his feet when he landed once again. He lifted the sword and held it diagonally across his chestwith the tip at his right shoulder and focussed on the one before him but noticed the shuriken in his arm.
"Blood?" he asked in disbelief. "Thats human blood. Who or what are you?"
