+1 to Ninjutsu!

You thought long and hard about your reward. But with what Azasuke had shown and the demonic energy surrounding him, the cursed seal was much to appealing to ignore! You looked at Orochimaru and said, "I shall take the Cursed Seal."
Orochimaru softly chuckled and then put his attention towards Dosu, his voice rather monotone when he asked Dosu what he wanted. Clearly, he wasn't interested at all in Dosu. "I'd like that custom weapon. I've had a few ideas on how to upgrade my current equipment..."
"Fine, now be gone. Hinata and I have things to discuss," Orochimaru bluntly said, shooing Dosu out of the room. Dosu shrugged and left, leaving you all alone with Orochimaru and Kabuto. After a moment, Orochimaru told Kabuto to gather something you couldn't quite hear and Kabuto also left the room. Orochimaru then body flickered to the first floor, standing across from you. "You preformed very admirably. Although, I must ask, what is with the change of color in your eyes? The Byakugan isn't a bright violet...and even Dosu had the same color in his eyes."
"Are you going to give me the Cursed Seal or what?" you asked, ignoring Orochimaru's question. A flash of anger appeared in Orochimaru's eyes, but he seemed to let it pass, as he took a step back, as if to examine you.
"I suppose it does not matter for now, I will learn what is it after a few more experiments," Orochimaru said maliciously."Now, I want to inform you of your next mission."
"Already?" you said, crossing your arms.
"Indeed, but it will not be for some time. But I know you'll be interested. How do you feel about Konoha?" Orochimaru asked.
"You already know. I want to slaughter all those bastards who imprisoned me and turn that village to ash!" you exclaimed, your killing intent exploding from an intense burst of hatred deep within you.
"Then you will be very fond of the next mission. I have struck a deal with the Fourth Kazekage, the Sand and the Sound will ally together to crush the Leaf." Orochimaru smoothly said.
You were stunned. How fucking ballsy was this man? But glee began to spring forward, twisting your face into a devilish grin. "Finally, something we have common ground on!"
Orochimaru chuckled before continuing. "It'll be during the finals of the Chunin Exams when we strike. Thanks to you, I'm finally confident enough to begin."
"What did I do?"
"You brought me a valuable soldier to our army, is all. One who can stop the reigning Hokage, Minato Namikaze. A very fearsome shinobi he is. Although he isn't my main goal, he is too powerful to let him be a variable," Orochimaru explained.
"How the hell are you going to use a corpse against him? Was Ibuki his lover or something?"
"Nothing as sentimental as that. Ibuki...possess a power that only she could use. I plan on using it." Orochimaru replied. You were about to ask how, but you got the feeling Orochimaru wouldn't divulge that particular piece of information. After a long moment, Orochimaru suddenly expanded his neck towards you! You gasped in surprise and tried to defend yourself, but it was too late! Orochimaru bit into the side of your neck, you could feel his teeth sinking into your flesh. Soon he retracted his neck and watched as you gripped your neck, an agonizing pain radiating from your neck and spreading to your body.
However, while painful, this was almost child's play compared to the hell you endured when you ingested Jashin. You tried to stand up, but Orochimaru made a hand seal and you suddenly began to get very sleepy.
"Sleep, Kurama. If you wake, then the power of the Cursed Seal shall be yours." Orochimaru said. You slumped to the ground and the last thing you saw before drifting to sleep was Kabuto walking back to the room...

Your eyes snapped open, but you had no idea where you were. It was a dark room, seemingly surrounded in metal. It was then you noticed that you weren't in your human host anymore, you were in your original body! You were heavily confused, was the last fifty years just a nightmare? But soon the answer came to you when you saw massive metal bars cutting off half the room, and on the other side was the body you had gotten used to being in. Except the body was fused to the metal wall, large chains with seals on them crossing over her body to keep her further in place.
"What the hell is this?" you asked, not expecting an answer. You knew you could talk to the consciousness of your host body, but it was rather useless. However, the girl raised her head, her extremely long and wild hair blocking most of her face, barring her left eye. It looked like a normal Hyuga's eye, but it was cold and dark, she had no fear looking at you.
Perhaps there was something to your host after all? But...why would you see her now? Did she somehow call you?
What will you do?
[] Ask her what's going on. You want answers...
[] You have absolutely no interest in whatever the hell this is, try to go back to reality.
[] Examine the room. Perhaps this is a manifestation of the seal, you might get some information out of this.
[] Write In.
