Kagura Mashita (かぐら ました, Mashita Kagura) is an OC/RPC for the Narutoverse created by xxpentimaticxXx on deviantART. She is a chūnin-level kunoichi from Kirigakure, a missing-nin, and a member of Team Cloud. She also possesses the unique Song Eye Kekkei Genkai.

Background
When Kagura Mashita was younger, she lived in the Land of Snow. Her family was very poor so she had to work just like the rest of her family had to, her job was selling various seafoods. One day she went into a bar thinking it was a regular restaurant, (she was 7) she asked for some water but the clerk told her to leave. She stayed and argued with the man.(Kagura was a very stubborn girl.) The man lose his temper and hit Kagura, Once he did it he couldn't stop he kept hitting her and hitting her and hitting her, finally she was half conscious he threw her out of his bar into the snow. Once she came to her senses she walked home in the cold and dark. Kagura always took a back route to her house. a blizzard had hit the town and she had gotten lost on the bad part of town. She was getting many stares, when she found her way back home she didn't notice a few guys following her she took a bath and was getting ready for bed. She kept hearing noises but ignored them (what she didn't know was that was her parents being tortured and killed.) When she was done getting ready she went to her room, while walking down the hallway,  she saw her parents all over the place. They had been mutilated. Kagura hyperventilates and panics when she has seen or been traumatized.She ran to her room locking the door. She heard banging on the other side of the door. From the intruders. Once the male ninjas broke down the door they dragged her out of her house and raped Kagura. she fell unconcious after the first hour. she woke up in a farm house in konohagakure. The house owner was an old woman named Nekomataya that had her house full of cats (she believed that having 11 cats is good luck.) and a young boy named Hiruko Shimitsu (He became kagura's surrogate brother.). they took care of her until she and Hiruko was old enough to go to the ninja academy.

Through the years Kagura's hate for  ninja's had grown more and more (because it was a group of ninjas that killed her parents and raped her.) While she was in the Academy, she never gave anything her best she just wanted to be with Hiruko. Hiruko always tried to talk her into using her full potential but she just ignored him. When kagura didn't graduate with Hiruko she was completely fine with it, until he started getting his missions. After 4 months without hearing about hiruko, she found out that Hiruko was captured on one of his missions. Kagura began to regret everything she did, and said. She was so sure of him coming back after 12 months past she gave up, she knew that he was never coming back. Kagura focused on being a ninja so she can find him and bring him back to konoha. When she turned 12 she graduated along with a few others. That's when she heard of this Sasuke Uchiha. She had small feelings for him but she never cared. All he was to her was some hearthrob giving girls a reason to become ninja. Kagura never liked Sakura either, because people always got both of them mixed up, Kagura also thought that Sakura was unworthy to be a ninja since all her attention was on Sasuke. Kagura was always an Ino Yamanaka fan not because she was rivals with Sakura but because she liked Ino's personality. Some of Kagura's teachers complimented her about her skills she never appreciated it though, her one goal was finding Hiruko. And that was all. Kagura always had a crush on Naruto when he was younger but a small crush, At first she thought he was adorable and he was to short to be a ninja. She also would make fun of his bright orange jump suit in a way she was very worried for him, she would also "knick" at small things that he would do.

Personality
In part one Kagura  was an arrogant, rude, mean, even bratty at times, but never spoiled she had a huge authority problem that almost got her kill in many cases. she had a huge ego problem. when she met her with her team mates Rin and Takeru for the first time, she made fun of them which made both of her teamates hate her for a long period of time. In Part two Kagura is more social with her friends and the people she hangs around including Sakura, her crush on Naruto slowly desolved once she knew Hinata's feeling toward Naruto. Kagura's personality took a drastic turn. She turned to a confident sometimes can be a bit introvert she tends to take things very closely she over thinks things she has an anger problem when people talk about her in ways she doesn't take to be nice, she is more of a tomboy also, she is still rude.

Appearance
Kagura is a grey pale-skinned (from not getting enough sunlight since she was underground in a harem for two years) girl of average height. Kagura's natural eye color is a brownish orange. Her most noticeable trait in her appearance is her long, messy pink hair. Kagura's hair is always partially undone but that's what she's known for, and also teased about she was once teased by Ino Yamanaka and had gotten into a fight with her and they where friends the following day. When Kagura was young her hair was a darker pink but through time got lighter; Kagura's hair is a darker-pinker color than Sakura's hair color. In Part I Kagura wears a mint green Kimono with her clan name on the back Kagura wears her ninja headband on her waist like a belt like Ino Yamanaka she also has a shuriken pouch on her lower left leg that is hidden by her Kimono. Kagura's hair is up in a ponytail before the Chūnin Exams, but after the Chūnin exams she wears her hair down. Kagura wears fairly revealing clothing. During Part I, she wore a short mint green kimono wrapped by multiple bows and with a layered low red collar and her forehead protector around her waist as a belt. She also wears wrist wraps around both of her wrists. During the anime filler, she stopped wearing the wrist wraps. At the Chūnin Exams finals, Kagura sported a black V-neck t-shirt that had stopped in the middle of her stomach with her clan symbol on the left side of her chest.

In Part ll Kagura has gone through noticeable changes. Her formerly messy long hair is shortened from her cutting it when she was trying to escape a trap in the forest of death. The estimated time her hair would've been down to her knees. Along with these, she wears a short, grey, sleeveless zip-up vest, an open-front black and red apron-skirt over a shorter, dark grey short skirt, with a brown bag on her hip.

In the anime she wears a red cloth around her hip with her headband protector attached to it.) While she has stopped wearing her forehead protector in the manga with traditional ninja sandals that went above her ankles. She also has two piercings on her lip and three spots under her left eye. In her clan it's a tradition it's also a tradition to sharpen your canine teeth, it means maturity. turning into an adult.

During the Fourth Shinobi World War, she dons the standard uniform of the Alliance and a Konohagakure flak jacket. She had also has a pouch that kept her weapons.

Abilities
In Part I, Kagura was noted to be an exceptional kunoichi by Kakashi.In the beginning of the series, Kagura was not skilled in chakra control. But throughout Part I, and, by Part II, she worked hard to become better, and improved to the point that she could gather a great amount of chakra for multiple types of chakra release jutsu's she can use while using her kekkei genkai. She is very calm, observant and perceptive in battle and can pick up on slight discrepancies in another person's personality and behavior as seen when she was able to detect the difference in Naruto's behavior when he was depressed about the death of Jiraiya.

Clan Techniques
Kagura excels in the techniques of her clan, which are primarily focused around illusions and taking over a persons body by influence. The power of influence is a technique predominantly used for reconnaissance and espionage, that allows the user to briefly possess someone and control that person's actions. While the user is guarded from physical harm. Despite many people thinking that this technique is unbeatable, the fact that you can do no physical harm to the user you can still get into their mind through mind jutsu. That is why Kagura doesn't get into any run-ins with Ino or anyone from the Yamanaka clan. If it had to come down to her using her Kekkei Genkei.

By the time of the Fourth Shinobi World War, her timing with the Power of influence Technique has improved to a point that she only needs a target to be briefly immobilized in order to enter their mind. According to Cloud (Her sensei), her use and releasing of the technique has improved drastically.

Medical Ninjutsu
Kagura tried Medical Ninjutsu. She was trained a little bit of it by Ino, but she was never really good at it so she gave up before she could finish. While learning a little from Ino she skilled in identifying, making and countering poison by making antidotes. She also learned how to identify herbal medicines.

Taijutsu
She seems to be skilled in taijutsu, able to intercept her reanimated friend Inoue from attacking her group with a single kick, sending him crashing out of the hiding spot. She also has good reaction time.

Nature Transformation
Kagura has shown some skill with Earth Release nature transformation. During the Fourth Shinobi World War, after being taught the hand-seals by her sensei, Kagura, Ino and the rest of the Allied Shinobi created several earth walls, in an attempt to slow down the Ten-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball. Kagura is capable of using the earth, fire, and water natures, and has two kekkei genkai. She is particularly skilled in Water Release techniques. She can use the Hiding in Mist Technique to obscure the movements of herself and her allies. By converting chakra inside her body to water, Kagura can expel a large torrent of water that can extinguish even the strongest fire techniques and quickly use the same water for the Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique. Her second kekkei genkai (other than using her Kekkei Genkai Song eyes), she can create mud by simultaneously using the earth and water natures, which allows Kagura to use mud release ninjutsu to her desire, such as in creating mud wolves that scout out her perimeter and creating quick sand-like traps out of mud and many other techniques.

Kekkei Genkai
Her first Kekkei Genkai is of the Mashita clan. Which holds the fifth most powerful Kekkei Genkai in the Ninja universe. It is called Song eye (also known as the Third eye.) Song eyes have the power to influence and cast her opponents into illusions and gives the user the ability to see 24 hours into the future. Any longer than that would cause the user to go blind or to fall under a coma. The Song eye is only able for pure blood Mashita.

Introduction Arc
When Kagura entered the Academy she was a bit angered and ignorant and she didn't understand what and why Konohagakure needed to use shinobi for if they'll just kill people. Before Hiruko was taken as hostage she was known for getting into fights and not participating in class

Chūnin Exam Arc
When Kagura's team went into the Chūnin exams she thought that it was a one way ticket to find Hiruko, after all the dead bodies she and her team passed by in the Forest of Death she almost wasn't sure if she would go through with it, but there was no turning back. Rin (kagura's teamate) was injured in the process of getting a heaven's scroll. Kagura's team was the fourth team that finished, in the middle of the Chūnin Exams Kagura was separated from her group while on they're way to the checkpoint. While looking for them she ran into Orochimaru. Kagura tried to protect the heaven scroll she kept with her as she fought him with the little chakra she had. Curious about her Kekkai Genkei he kept her alive, leaving her with a proposition to leave Konoha and join him and a child he was looking for (refering to sasuke). At first Kagura declined. After Orochimaru left she was reunited back with her group. Kagura kept her conversation with Orochimaru she had to herself. But she did tell them about the Heaven's scroll being taken. Trying to find another heaven scroll Kagura and her team ran into Team Three (Ino's team). Taking their heaven scroll made Kagura's team the fourth group that made it through the Chūnin Exams.

Invasion of Konoha Arc
Kagura finally on the pursuit of Orochimaru to bring him back to Konoha for justice after killing the third hokage, After a short battle she had been horribly defeated leaving her in the hospital for a month.

During the Time Skip
Kagura focused on her genjutsu considering that she wasn't good at it. Once she had genjutsu down she got news that Tsunade found out the location of Hiruko. Kagura and her team along with team 16 (Inoue, Kaito and Hisashi) went to retreive Hiruko. Once Kagura learned the truth about what had went down on the day of Hiruko's disappearence she fought Hiruko with all her sadness and anger. After a painful battle with hiruko, she left broken all that time she had been getting stronger just to find him had been for nothing.

Once the group came back she went though a deep state of depression. Months later Kagura recieved word that there was a mission out in Kirigakure her home country. She took the mission without any hesitation.
