Chunnin Exams (Life Mountain Range)

[Anthony Sky]

This is the first stage of the Life Mountain Range on the out skirts of the Iwagakure only INC post may be hear so have fun chilling while you wait for the exams to start

[Jackums]

A cloud of smoke shot from the ground. As it faded into the wind, it revealed Ruby, Hikari, Niko, and what looked like; A snow village jounin. He looked like this (http://img3.cdn.crunchyroll.com/i/spire2/05142008/1/c/a/9/1ca9a9a4dfd1e0_full.jpg), except with a Yukigakure headband. This was actually Jesse. He was disguised, with a very strong cloaking jutsu. His team all knew to call him Kotetsu, as he'd told them earlier.

Ruby walked foward noticing no-one had arrived yet ~ "Looks like we're the first here", she said balnkly, as she walked around looking out at the mountain range, "Woah. This is where the exams are.. it's the middle of nowhere.. Oh well, me and Keiko were always good at survival!", she said with confidence.

[schrodinger]

in a huge burst of incredibly powerful voltage three more people apeered....... in the middle was a girl whos eyes were glowing white after her jutsu..... a shy looking boy beside her looked at her.... "Cool.....we can so use that in the exam...." he said happily to the girl.....the other boy was taller than the other two........ he held himself with the authority of a lord.....which technichaly he was....... but he also had an air of quiet briliance and power........the aura of someone who new exactly what his next move was....... he seemed to be pointedly ignoring the other two........ "Yeah...." the girl said, sounding slightly impressed with herself...... "I guess i did it pretty well......" she said, high fiving the shy looking boy....... the other boy rolled his eyes...... the girl turned to him.... "Oh come on....dont be like that......" she said unhappily...... "I cant believe that I actually have to babysit you two......" the tall boy said harshly.......

[Kaizor]

Niko looked around in dissatisfaction. He hated being in the middle of nowhere. "Ah man!! This is where the exams are?!" he asked with a extreme sad face. Hikari looked at him like he was crazy. Maybe she did think he was crazy.
"Oh come on it's not that bad." she said, trying to cheer everyone up, though she was a little nervous about the exams.
"Well, the good thing is, I have you two girls with me!!" Niko said in a goofy tone as he wrapped both Ruby and Hikari in both of his arms. He smiled gleamingly. "Let's get this started!!"
Hikari slapped Niko in the back of the head. "Come on...it's not that bad. And being this bad in the exams will surely get us all beaten..." she said in an annoyed tone, though she was actually a little humored by Niko's attitude. At least he wouldn't keep things boring.

[Anthony Sky]

Two people stood in building together looking out a window at the newcomers one was The Hokage a beautiful lady with long silver hair and icy purple eyes while the other was Yamato Uzumaki the Yellow Hurricane he had the signature yellow hair and blue eyes the Hokage said in gentile tone 'So they are the the next generation..I think I will go introduce my self' Yamato sighed as he said 'I will stay hear' The Hokage then walked out of the building

The Hokage approached one girl in particular from behind a girl with long red hair and soft red eyes she smiled and said gently ' Hello Ruby' The Hokage knew Ruby sense the academy and before she left the village they had vary friendly and closer relationship (Like Naruto and the Third Hokage)

ooc I hope this is okay Jack

[Jackums]

Ruby slapped Niko also ~ "What did I tell you before?!", she asked angrily. She flicked her hair, and walked forward, ignoring Niko.

Jesse looked around, noticing the new team ~ "You's all ready? The other teams are starting to arrive. So make sure you're all prepared", he said. He was obviously in a disguise, so his voice was different too.

As Ruby walked forward, she heard a soft, elegant voice. She turned around to notice the Hokage. She made a large smile ~ "Lady Hokage! I didn't expect to see you so soon. How's my family?", she asked, happily.

[Anthony Sky]

The Hokage put out her arms and hugged Ruby Gently as she said in soft tone 'They miss you' The Hokage then let go and looked at the two Yukigakure Gennin and smiled as she said 'So are you three a squad' Her icy purple eyes shined in the sun light with warmth

[Kaizor]

Hikari looked up at the Hokage. Wow. She's pretty. Hikari smiled as she approached the Hokage. "Hello. My name is Hikari. It's nice to meet you." she bowed before the Hokage's presence, before a higher authority.

Niko looked at the Hokage with a cool smile. Well, he thought it was cool, but it actually looked kinda funny. He walked with a little lean in his step hoping to impress the Hokage. "Hey! You're pretty for an old lady." Niko said...which was probably the wrong thing to say. Niko had a knack at royally messing things up.

[GangstaKage]

Suddenly lightning flashed throughout the battle feild.A mysterious ninja appeared dressed in a black cloack.He pulled off the cloack to reveal Kayne Raiden!A genin from Kirigakure.What was he doing without a squad?He would get demolished wouldn't he?Not nessacarily he was very skilled.The large Raiken sword rested on his back.

Suddenly a blade flew through the air....whistling as it went.It landed infront of Yamato.Hikoro appeared standing ontop of the blade."Yamato-san....What can you tell me about....Rein..." he said sternly his eyes glaring intently into Yamato's.He was waiting for Kin to arrive.

[Jackums]

Ruby smiled and nodded, with her arms wrapped around Keiko. She got a warm feeling, with the Hokage here. It reminded her of home ~ "This is Hikari, and Niko. And my Sensei; Kotetsu", she replied, with a kind, energetic voice.

'Kotetsu' bowed his head in respect ~ "Nice to meet you, Lady Hokage", he said in a smooth voice.

[Anthony Sky]

The Hokage looked at all three and smiled even though she was just called old she said gently 'It is nice to meet all of you as well' The Then looked at Kotetsu and smiled as she said 'I thought Jesse was training these three'

ooc Who is Kotetsu?

Yamato looked at Hikoro and raised and eyebrow as he said 'That is top secret stuff kiddo..but i can say he is pure evil' Yamato then walked back into the building leaving Hikoro behind but that would probably not be the end

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro appeared infront of Yamato holding a kunai to his throat."I don't care how classifed it is he stole my best friend...And I need to know from someone else whether or not it was in good reason." he said his tone almost pleading.

[Jackums]

ooc: It's Jesse in disguise. He was recently in Akatsuki, so he might not be completely welcomed by all the Kages that were going to be watching, =3

Kotetsu nodded ~ "Jesse was. But recently being in Akatsuki, he wouldn't be welcome in such places. He asked me to accompany his students for him. I'm a jounin from Yukigakure. One of his Subordinates", he said with a calm voice.

[Anthony Sky]

Yamato kept walking and vanished and appeared behind Hikoro so they were back to back as he said 'Just drop it and forget about Kane..you Sensei Tokuzen let him go..it was what Kane had to do to find him self..but if you are worried about Rein killing Kane don't' Yamato was now looking out the window at the Life Mountain Range

The Hokage nodded and smiled as she said 'Well when you see him can you give this to him' The Hokage took out a small scroll and handed it to Kotetsu

ooc I will PM you what the scroll says

EDIT

[Kimen]

The air echoed with new footsteps. Someone was entering the same room Yamato and Hikoro were in. Someone walked in, it was Isamu Nara. He looked around and saw the drama unfolding. He sighed. It all seemed so troublesome.

"It seems I came at a bad time..."

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro's arm tensed around the kunai he probobly really wasn't going to use it."Well then if your going to deny me that then I need to ask you one thing.I need you to train me.There's still about a day before the exam acctually starts so that when I'm done with this I can go get Kane back....." he was being serious.If Yamato refused he still probobly wouldn't use the kunai but he would have to do something.He knew both Kin and Kane would be training.He couldn't let them surpass him by such a large span.That was another reason he needed tog et stronger.His own personal pride.

[Jackums]

Kotetsu nodded, and took the scroll ~ "Will do, Lady Hokage", he said in a respectful tone. Ruby stood a few metres away with wide eyes. She didn't know what was going on exactly.

ooc: ossim.

[Kaizor]

Niko slowly moved in beside Ruby. He stood very close to Ruby and stared at her for a few moments. "You know, you have WICKED awesome hair!" Niko exclaimed with a bright smile.

[schrodinger]

Suddenly a huge ark of mist in the shape of a cressent moon formed....and out stepped a kane.......he was taller and more muscular....but the most different thing about him was his shear aura.....now a power radiated from him.........he smiled as he saw hikoro...who he had apeered a bit behind....."Hey......its been a while Hikoro......." he said, in his unmistakable Calculating tone........

[Anthony Sky]

Yamato was now holding the Kunai Hikoro was it seemed like he did not even move for his gaze out the window Yamato turned to Hikoro and looked ta him 'It looks Liek there is no need for me to train you now ' Yamato looked into Hikoro eyes as he twirled the Kunai Hikoro once held

The Hokage smiled and looked at three Gennin and said in proud tone 'Good luck I hop the best for all of you' The Hokage then turned and started to walk away

EDIT

[Jackums]

Ruby had been trying to listen to Kotetsu and Kaiyo's conversation, but Niko had gotten in the way. She looked at him, and smiled ~ "Really? Thanks", she said turning a little red.

[GangstaKage]

"Fine..." he said hurridedly.He knew Kane was coming.There was no mistaking the familier chakra.Hikoro turned around pleasently with a smile."Long time no see...." he said nonchalantly."So you here for the exams?" he asked with a hopefull hint in his tone....

[schrodinger]

"Yeah...." kane said happily...... "I stepped out for a while.......but i really hope that nothing goes wrong in these exams......or.......well....nevermind....." he said seeming to think better of saying what he was going to....... "Anyway....how have you been?" he asked happily...clapping hikoro on the back...... "And where the hell is kin?......"

[Kaizor]

"Yeah." Niko said pointing to Keiko. "Isn't that a hare?" Niko asked...and the sad part is.....he was serious......he was actually referring to Keiko the whole time....

[Jackums]

Ruby's face became red. But with anger this time. She growled, and lefted her fist back, punching Niko in the face, sending him sliding along the ground ~ "You jerk!", she said, walking off, over to Hikari.

ooc: Hope the "Auto-hit" is okay. lol, x3

[Kaizor]

OOC: Lol, yeah, it's fine xD

Niko slid across the ground, dirt collecting around him as he landed, well slid. When he came to a full stopped, he held his face with his right hand. His face was twisted in pain. "Aaah what did I say??" Niko never seemed to figure out his mistakes quickly, even minor ones like that. He sat up and looked at Ruby. He didn't say anything else yet.

Hikari looked at Ruby as she approached her. She didn't know what to think at that moment, nor what to say. She looked around casually.

[Jackums]

Ruby smiled warmly ~ "Keiko can sense alot of strong ninja here. We better be ready, Hikari", she said calmly, yet with alot of energy.

[Kaizor]

Hikari nodded. "We will be ready," she said, already filled with energy, though she was still a bit nervous. Who knows what kind of opponents they'd face in the exams.

Niko stood up and walked toward the girls slowly. "Well while we wait we might as well have a bite to eat eh?" Niko said kindly, pulling out one of the many scrolls strapped to his back.
"You packed all of us lunch before you came here? That was nice of you," Hikari said in a gentle tone. Maybe he wasn't so bad after all.
"Of course. We have to come prepared right? Always put your squad ahead of yourselves, that's my nindo anyway...one of them," Niko said, the silliness in his voice was gone, he was now speaking seriously and from the heart.

[Jackums]

Ruby tilted her head, noticing the change in his behaviour, and personailty. She made a half smile ~
"Thanks, Niko. I didn't think you were so organised", she said, softly.

[GangstaKage]

"Nothing will go wrong.At least until we have to start fighting against each other anyway." he said as Kane clapped him on the back."Who knows where he is.Probobly making sure he is fashionably late again..."

[Kaizor]

Niko smiled and rubbed the back of his head. "Oh I wouldn't really say organized but yeah." Niko opened the scroll and summoned the contents out of it. As the smoke cleared, a picnic blanket along with a basket was set up greatly on the ground. "I have a scroll for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for a few nights. We'll be fine during this exam." Niko said. It was amazing how he'd already been many steps above everyone else, such a goof he was. Hikari was shocked at his new posture.

"I didn't think you were so...I dunno...this way," Hikari said, lacking the right words to say. Niko knew what she meant, and he sat down on the blanket. He looked up at the girls.
"Feel free to join me. I have plenty."
Hikari smiled brightly, and sat down on the blanket.

[schrodinger]

"late, yes.....fashionably.......disputable....." kane sighed...... Every day....even when i was happy......ive regreted what i did to him........and as for you.....i still cant believe you followed me...all the way into the fricking desert......but now that you have been there, i suppose i can bring you again......after all....you havvent met my dog......" kane said.....thinking to what hikoro would look like covered in slobber........ "Anyway.......what....what has been going on while ive been gone?" kane asked....still fantasizing......while realising that hikoro probably wouldnt mind the slobber......

[GangstaKage]

EDIT:

My brother was being a b****

"Well you know the ussuall....a ninja war....Tokuzen betrayed us.He rejoined us the war ended there's a new threat.....the normal anime BS..." he said cassually.At the dog comment he raised his eyebrow."Since when do you have a dog?

[schrodinger]

"Since i learned summoning......" Kane said quietly..... "But bringing him here now is a bad idea......i would rather not cause mass histeria......" kane said quietly....... in any case...... Touzuken?......really?.......and i knew about the ninja war......father.......uh i mean......rein, helped destroy atatsuki from the shadows......."

[GangstaKage]

"Hmmm....." he said plainly.The mass hysteria part gave him even more questions but he decided to keep them to himself.Soon he began tapping his foot against the ground."Kin really should hurry up...."

[Anthony Sky]

Well the last time I checked I was under cover' Tokuzen was standing behind his two students and rubbing there heads he had a smile of joy on his face

[schrodinger]

Kane shrugged...... "Well.....having known kin since we were three....one thing you learn is to tell him things are two hours later than they are.....then hes only an hour late....." kane said with a fond smile.......really....he was slightly worried about seeing kin again.....how would he react?.......kane shook his head sadly but perked up when touzuken apeered...."Well there is the double agent now" he said teasingly, then..... "Hey hikoro......we are going to be working together.....but we havent sparred in months......lets see our improvments....." kane said with a mischevious smile....... "I have some kickass new jutsu....but im not allowed to use most of them without concent or help......still.....ive gotten much stronger.....you?"

[Jackums]

Ruby smiled brightly. She was impressed. Wow, he's so different, she though, as her eyes widened. She nodded, and sat down. Keiko jumped out of her bag, and sat, expecting some food too.

[Anthony Sky]

Tokuzen sighed as he said 'Hay I was under orders If you become half the ninja i am you will have dirty missions to...but any way I am only hear to sign you kids in so when Kin arrives I have to leave..for I have my own exam'

[Kaizor]

Niko took out some three sandwiches, apples, broccoli, and some orange juice. "It's not anything special, but it's a well balanced meal for the most part." Niko said glancing at Keiko. He wasn't expecting more than three people. He shrugged. "Uh...sorry, I guess you'll have to share with what Ruby spares," Niko said, unsure what else to say on the matter.
Wow. He really thought ahead of time. He packed this before he came here....he may actually be the best brains in our group. How odd... Hikari thought to herself feeling a little awkward with how she felt about him earlier. "Thanks..." she said gracefully.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro wondered what happened to Yamato....He smield when Tokuzen appeared."Heh......well we're going to have to wait and see..." he said with a smirk...."Haha Tokuzen-sensei gonna get his but whooped!" he said when Tokuzen started to talk about the Grand exam

[Anthony Sky]

Tokuzen luaghed as he said 'I hope not' Tokuzen had gotten a more muscle sense he last saw his students he noticed both of them had to

[Jackums]

Ruby was still surprised ~ "I'm impressed, Niko", she said Kindly. She pulled some ham off her sandwich, and held it in her hand, as Keiko ate it.

[Kaizor]

Niko blushed a little. "Naw, it wasn't that hard." he said, he appreciated when he was complimented like that. If he didn't act like such a goof off during first impressions, he'd probably get a lot more...

Hikari picked up her sandwich and began eating it. Niko did the same. They began eating their lunches...as they waited for the signal for the exams to begin...

[schrodinger]

A flash of blinding blue light lit the are, and two people walked out......first as Clara, her hair blowing in the slight wind........she smiled, looking out upon the area........and she suddenly stopped cold.....facing away from them, with different clothes and an air of power......was the unmistakable sillouet, of kane.......

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin walked out behind Clara smiling looking around as he saw Toukezen and Hikoro he started to walk towards them waving goodbye at Clara when his gaze rested on Kane's silouhette he nearly fell over with shock he shouted but for some reason it wasnt very loud Hikoro, Toukezen, Kane he slowly wakled forward he didnt know wether to be happy or sad or anger or what so many things were rushing through his head at this moment

[schrodinger]

Kane spun around.........a huge smile lit his face.....but was quickly replaced with an uncertain look as he pondered.......he walked towards kane....... "Im......sorry....." he said quietly..........

clara looked shocked......she tentitively waited to question kane.....though she doubted somwhat he would answer her questions......

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin slowly walked towards Kane saying nothing finally they were face to face, Kin smiled a small smile at Kane as he reached up and punched him right in the face You better be he was letting out the anger first he didnt want this in the chunnin exams so he would get rid of it quickly

[schrodinger]

Kane saw the punch coming as if in slow motion....but he took it....he went reeling back at least twent feet and crashed into a rock............"OW..." he said loudly....and stumbled up...... "Well......that was a lot harder than i was expecting.......you seem to have boosted your streangth....." he said, through a broken noze...... he walked dizzily back to kin and tapped his noze....which healed....... then he stood again....wondering if kin would punch him again......he hoped he wouldnt....his physichal streangth seemed to have trippled.....

[Kuro Nagashi]

ooc: emotianal time now

Kin smiled he was happy he had his best friend back again, as he hugged his friend giving him a big bear hug refraining from his full strength as he dint want to turn Kane into dust, setting him down tears were runnning down his face he had nothing to say he just stood there in front of Kane crying

[schrodinger]

Kanelooked at kin and hugged him back........ he was crying slightly too......he looked up at the sky........for the first time in half a year......he was truly happy......He Had found his father.........he was about to aply to be a chunnin...and best of all he had his best friend there to share in his joy..... Kane gathered himself...grinning...... "So.....you probably have a lot of questions........" he said invitingly.......

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin smiled wiping his tears off of his face Where did you go and why, are you going to leave again, why couldnt you tell me Kin stopped after those questions he didnt want to flood Kane with too many questions right off the bat or he wouldnt get them all answered

[schrodinger]

Kane looked at kin, as if trying to figure out how to best word it......"Im going to have to answer those questions out of order........ First....I couldnt tell you where i was going because you would have stoped me even if it killed you......i couldnt allow that........not to my best friend........next.....I left because, when fath-...uh....rein tried to get me from the village the first time, he hid a note in my weapons bag.....the one thing on me that only one of my clan would be able to penatrate........then....when i was back in konoha....believing that i had been saved from some great evil......i opened up the note............I......cant tell you what it said.....but i can tell you that it inspired me to leave the village to find answers......at which time rein aprehended me......... As for where i went.......I went to a place that not even the bravest people usually tresspass in........ the fire cove.......the great desert bordering the calmer desert of the sand village......it is a place no one may penatrate without the correct information...............and yes.......i am going back......but there is a difference this time.......you can come with me if you want.......as long as you are willing to hear me out......."

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin heard he was going back and the anger nearly came back up again but then he heard this time he would be going with Kane I will hear you out, but no this no matter what happens i will be at your side like it or not Kin smiled then he wondered What exactly is this Rein to you, as you stumbled over soe words there a minute ago, almost like you were trying to say something i shouldnt know

ooc: i dont want to point out i know hes your father

[schrodinger]

"Well.......in all honesty......rein is my Father........I found out when we got back to his base.........you see...There are a lot of things that konoha didn't tell us..........and........Its true i dont like what rein has done........but......he did what he did for good reasons........" kane said quietly..... "and......as for being at my side....that seems to just be the way of the world....after all...its been that way since age three......." kane said with a lauph.......then he turned sirious......"now......this is the way it is........ like it or not.....i am going back.....not only do i have a home there with my father.......but.......i feel that it is where i belong......pluss.....i want to continue my training........" he said, knowing that kin would understand that much at least....... "And....less obviously....i have to feed my dog......" he added with a grin......

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin frowned Kane wasnt helping his situation so thats the only reason you wanna leave me again, cause if im right once you get there youll never come back again will you Kin clenched his fist as he looked back at Clara why hadnt she left yet

[schrodinger]

Clara...seeing the look....left in another flash......... "Well......technichaly no....i can go wherever i want....ive been able to for a while now.......but....there were difficulties........so i only just got out to come to the chunnin exams.........I do have to check in with Rein, after they are done.......but otherwise i can adventure with you......just like old times......" he said....hoping that kin would cheer up...... he then whispered in kins ear so no one else could hear..... "Its a bit off topic...but you always enjoyed going fast right?" he whispered.....

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin was beyond pissed about this whole Rein thing but when Kane mentioned going fast he quickly nodded his head, though he was resisting the urge to punch Kane again as he continued Its so unfair, why must you go back to Rein and then spend so much time with him i know youve always wanted to meet your father but now you know who he is and your crawling right back to him Kin was shouting now but he couldnt help it, he began to breath deeply using the calming technique that Kiier had taught him so he wouldnt loose control and break everything within 20meters

[schrodinger]

"Yes......I guess you could say that......." kane said....... "But.... you should meet him before you make assumtions.......hikoro has met him already......you can ask him...." kane said....then....more quietly still...... "And if you like going fast.......you have to try dune riding.........its hard to explain.......but you go over eighty miles an hour......" he said....

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin just kept breathing slowly as he sat down where he had been standing, he was sitting indian style breathing very slowly an aura of power was radiating from him, slowly he became calm and smiled up at Kane I like the idea of 80 mile per hour Kin stood back up and a kunei slid from the palm of his hand as he began to twirl it aorund his finger when he whizzed it into a tree Kane so what did you learn under him Kin was refering to Rein he really didnt want to talk about him and make hjimself made again but he needed somehting to talk with Kane about

[schrodinger]

"well.......i learned how to do this." kane said misteriously......and sudenly something that would feel like a slap in the head whaped kin on the back of the head.......at the same time a force tipped kin over backwords......

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin felt the slap on his head and since he wasnt using his kekki genkai at the moment for protection it hurt a tiny bit as the force tipped him backwards he did a complete flip landing perfectly on his feet smiling Wanna see something really cool Kin was going to show off his summoning, but he would have to go into the forest first as he didnt want to let the others see it

[schrodinger]

Kane nodded and followed kin.... "So....ya learned somthing new?" kane asked teasingly....

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin chuckled once they were in the forest out of sight he turned and bit his finger weaving handseals as he slamme dhis hand into the ground Kuchiyose no jutsu a cloud of smoke enveloped the area once it was cleared there was a white fox standing next to Kin it was the same height as Kin on all fours Kin scratched his head Meet my summoning white fox Siske Siske growled Hello there, master why have you summoned me is it to tear this person apart Kin chuckled No Siske this is my friend and teammate Kane, i figured you guys should introduce you to him so be polite

[schrodinger]

"Wow......" kane said....looking at the fox with a smile.....he inclined his head..... "Hello....my name is Kane" he said to the fox...admiring the intelegent gleam in his eye......... "Well.....i could show you one of my summons....if you like...." he said to kin....... and he did a seiries of handseals....and with a puff of smoke, a small black puppy sat there on the ground.......his paws were glowing blue.... the pup barked and kane shook his head...... "Well.....this is Ranka....... he is toupher than he looks..... he said....scratching the pup behind the ears....... "Its ok for you to talk to him....." kane said.... "All right...." the puppy said in a small but confident voice......

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin looked at the puppy reaching down to pat him on the head as he spoke to the pup Hey there Kin stood back up we should probably get back to Hikoro and Toukezen sensei dont you think weaving handseals Kin touched Siske on the head and he disappeared in a cloud of smoke as he waited for Kane

[schrodinger]

"Yeah..." kane said absently.....the puppy dissapeered and kane began to walk back...... "So......what do you think?.........did i do the right thing?" kane asked...looking down at the grass.....walking slumped a bit....

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin looked over at Kane if you meen by leaving without a warning of where you were going and beating me up against the wall, and not trying to contact me, then no, but if you meen by coming back here then yes

[schrodinger]

"well.....take the good with the bad i supose...." kane said with a small smile.....as they emerged back to the meetingplace......"Well....what now?" kane asked quizicaly.....

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin frowned I dont know i guess we wait for Toukezen to go and sighn us up and get our scroll, i wish this would hurry up and start but i dont know who all is entering so far ive only seen us

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro walked out from behind a tree.He was holding a scroll.He smiled and put in his back pouch."Are you guys ready?" he asked.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin smiled at Hikoro whenever you are, Kane are you ready to go Kin was avoiding Hikoro's gaze he wasnt to happy with him either he had went with Kane and met Rein and he wasnt the least bit mad this just made Kin anger at them both

[schrodinger]

"Yeah...of course....." kane said happilly......and he began walking towards the starting point........ as he neared it....another three people came into view.......a girl and two boys... one of the boys seemed hauty and distant, while the other seemed kind and shy......the girl.......it was hard to tell........

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro followed Kane to the where they were supposed to go up the mountain.A boy was leaning against the fence lining the mountain.As the new squad approahed(Hikara's) he closed his eyes hoping not to be recognized.They wouldn't be very happy to see him after what happened in Kirigakure.Hikoro could tell Kin was avoiding him so he wanted to give him his space.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin watched the others approach as he stood at the gate waiting for the proctors to start handing out scrolls Okay guys we will have to designate a leader for the squad before we head out, we will all work together but if someone's in charge everything will work much better or so i think

Tora walked out of the forest as he looked around at the others waiting for Yuki the person he was supposed to meet here but he wasnt sure if he was early or late

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro frowned.He knew were this was going.Or at least he had his own idea.Everyone would want themselves to be leader but he really didn't care.He stood in silence thinking very carefully of what to say...

A single white snowflake fell from the side infront of Tora.It descended slowly towards the ground.Suddenly as it nearly collided with the grass.It grew larger forming and distorting into the shape of a human.When it was comeplete Yukito Mihara a genin from Yukigakure was standing.HE was supposed to meet someone named Tora from the Sand village.They were placed on a squad together.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Tora looked over at the man beside him as he saw the Yukigakure head band he held out his hand Tora of the sand at your service might you be Yukito

Kin smiled as he raised his hand in a childish manner I nominate Kane he has the best strategic mind out of us im too straight forward to lead any group currently

[schrodinger]

Kane blinked..... "Well.....thanks....but....are you sure?.......you were always telling me i was to cautious....." kane said.....looking aprihensive.....

[GangstaKage]

"Fair enough..." he said."Kane?You up for it?" he sent a backwards glance towards Kane.

Yuki nodded quickly."Yukito Mihara..." he said quietly though there was a bit of distaste in his voice as he spoke his last name though it wouldn't be very noticable due to his quiet voice.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin smiled You dont have to if you dont want to Kane, i just nominated you cause i didnt want to be the prick who nominated myself even though i usually take lead of our squad, but its your call Kane you or me

Tora smiled at his comrade so what kinda fighting style do you use Tora began to walk towards the gates as he was sure Yukito would follow him

[schrodinger]

"Well.....Allright.....I guess its time to take charge...." kane said with resolve...... "first....we should do a suply check....... lets figure out what we have to work with.........weapons.......well lets just say we are covered....." kane said with a wink....

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin smiled they always had weapons between the three of them, espically Kane muscle and speed, were good on, same with chakra Kin looked over at Hikoro

ooc: im off to bed sry

[GangstaKage]

"I say we already have this won..." he said alloud to himself.Though he wasn't being cocky.It wouldn't be easy.They would probobly have some major competition.He sat down against a tree.

[Anthony Sky]

Tokuzen laid in a tree as he watch his students he could not be seen nor herd he thought to him self 'They have all grown so much sens I last saw them..they have even chose a leader...haha' Tokuzen was proud of his students but the truth was after this Exam it was time for the real work to begin

[Jackums]

Ruby looked around, noticing squads were nominating leaders ~ "Hey guys. Who's going to be our leader? It's best if we choose now", she asked, with confidence. She knew not to mention the scroll, or who would be holding it, since other teams might hear. She knew Hikari knew this, but she was still a bit worried that Niko might blab it out.

[GangstaKage]

"I specialize in genjutsu.I know a few Ice ninjutsu as well.Oh and I can do this...."' he said this all quietly.Suddenly his dissapeared.As Tora was walking Yuki reappeared next to him holding him back with his hand.Suddenly a kunai flew out infront of where Tora would have been standing if he had taken another step.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Tora smiled this is good, im mainly a puppeteer if you dont mind having puppets and weapons flying around you at all times then well work fine together, but i think you should probably be in charge as im not much of a leader

[Kaizor]

Ruby looked around, noticing squads were nominating leaders ~ "Hey guys. Who's going to be our leader? It's best if we choose now", she asked, with confidence. She knew not to mention the scroll, or who would be holding it, since other teams might hear. She knew Hikari knew this, but she was still a bit worried that Niko might blab it out.

Niko raised his hand to the group. "I nominate MYSELF!" he said with a cocky grin. Hikari looked at him like he was crazy.

"Uh...I dunno." Hikari said, she hadn't really thought about who would be group leader. She just knew she herself didn't want to do it. "Well, as long as it's not me...I'm fine with it..."

[GangstaKage]

Yuki nodded dutifully."Thats fine." he said."You better not mind them either.I'm also a trap specialist." he said with a slight grin." Besides.I can avoide your weapons easily because of my kekkai genkai." he spoke." Have you received our scroll?" he asked.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Tora nodded his head in a yes like fashion as he poked one of the scrolls around his waist as he mumbled Its sealed inside of their, but i also have a puppet their so it will be hard to find

ooc: could you pm me the scroll again i deleted the message accidently and i cant remeber same with Kane, Hikoro, and Tora

[GangstaKage]

Yukito nodded thoughtfully.

Kensei appeared on a nearby cliff grumbling to himself.Five minutes later Hana appeared beside him panting."Where the hell is Akira?!" he grumbled angirly.Hana shrugged."I didn't see her..." he said between breatheless pants.

[Jackums]

Ruby rolled her eyes, and sighed as Niko nominated himself ~ "You sure you don't want to, Hikari? I think you'd do great", she said, with a smile.

[Kaizor]

Hikari shrugged. "Being a leader isn't really my thing."

Niko raised his hand even higher, also standing up straight. "Oh c'mon I packed your lunches for you!" he said, for some reason really wanting the job as leader of the group. Hikari almost wanted to volunteer just so he wouldn't be the one to do it. She sighed in frustration.

[Jackums]

Ruby wasn't sure what to do. She wasn't sure if she should take the risk of nominating Niko as leader. She looked around in confusion. She nodded, making a decision in her head. She pulled out a small scroll, and opened it as she began jotting something down. She then rolled it up, and handed it to Hikari.
__________________________________

ooc: I'll pm it to you.

[Kaizor]

Hikari read the scroll and sighed. She didn't want to do it, but she knew the problem wouldn't be solved unless they did. Hikari nodded in agreement toward Ruby. Hikari slowly turned to Niko.

"Okay Niko...you can be leader..."

Niko's face gleamed with excitement. "Really?! AWESOME!"

"But! You have to give Ruby our scroll. She's going to hold on to it."

"Sure fine with me!" Niko exclaimed, still caught up in the moment...from the looks of things this team surely seemed doomed...but were they really?

[Jackums]

Ruby sighed. She was a bit reluctant to let Niko be leader, but he seemed so set on it ~ "So, when are the exams starting?", Ruby asked curiously.

[Kaizor]

Hikari and Niko both shrugged.
"I actually don't know. I'm guessing in a few hours maybe...?"
"I dunno. I heard it was starting tomorrow. I could be wrong though..."

[Jackums]

Ruby looked around at the other teams. Some looked fiercer than others. She wasn't worried. She'd gotten quite far through her training, and was confident in her abilities.

[Kaizor]

Hikari was still a tad nervous of the exams. People have been known to die in them, and she was afraid of losing people close to her. It was just a natural reaction.

Niko on the other hand was pumped up and ready. He looked around, not even intimidated in the least at the opposing teams. "Alright. Looks like we got this won! I think...we should all learn a sexy jutsu..."

[Jackums]

Ruby made a face similar to: o_O

She looked at Niko ~ "What're you talking about?"

[Kaizor]

"Well...I guess we should start with the basics," Niko said in a commanding tone, standing up straight trying to act like the leader. "You and Hikari, get on top of each other."

Immediately after saying that, Niko received a hard punch against the jaw. This sent him flying into a nearby tree, some apples from the tree also fell and hit Niko on his head. "Geez...you pervert!"

[Jackums]

Ruby growled under her breath. Lucky for Niko, Hikari got to him first.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro stood up slowly.He started to walk around inconspicuously amongst the rough rocky terrain and scarce trees that lined the edge of Life Mountain.He was looking for Yamato in hope of receiving his training before the beggining of the exams.Kane and Kin were probable stronger then him by now.That's not why particularly why he wanted to train.He didn't look like he was looking for him he just appeared to be taking a stroll.

[Silver Cross]

Taiken appeared in Life Mountain Range in a silver explsion, but nothing was harmed in its wake, as though it never happened. The cosmic sage stood, arms folded, and a small smirk on his face. He looked around at all the genin, and not so genin, but payed little attention. The only reason he was there, was because the Hokage had requested him there.

"Ahh... The Chuunin exams, such memories." He looked around, searching for the hokage now.

[Anthony Sky]

The Hokage stood on top of a high mountain over looking the magnificent view of the mountains and the sun set with all its colors Purple orange red yellow and white Her long silver hair danced with the strong winds as her icy purple eyes gazed at the beauty of the land scape that could only be match by the Hokage her self

[Silver Cross]

It took Taiken only a moment to read the Hokage's cosmic energy. She was high atop the mountain, looking down. Taiken knew all this without even glancing in her direction.

"What a sight. Beauty atop a beauty." He turned slowly, and looked up to the Hokage, smiling widely. It had felt like so long. He had seen her in Kumori, but didnt have the chance to speak to her on account they were in the middle of battle. He wondered if she would even recognize him, with his miraculous 7 year again process, and the silver wings that protruded from his back. He was indeed not the 19 year old boy he had been before.

[GangstaKage]

"Yamato-san!" Hikoro began yelling to the air.So much for hoping people wouldn't think he was looking for something...or in this case someone.Hikoro walked back to the shack where he saw him before.

[Anthony Sky]

The Hokage new it was Taiken from the moment he stepped foot in the Life Mountain Range she kept her gaze to the sun set as she spoke 'Each generation will surpass the next...and eventually the protectors with become the protected..The next generation has will raise up to become the Protectors it is up to them to become the guardians of the young and the old...that time is now' The Hokage turned to Taiken then back at the sun set she was saying what the old Hokage had said to her years ago


Yamato stood in tree out side the shack as he said to him self 'what douse that kid want...now'

[Silver Cross]

Taiken didnt speak, but nodded at the truth of which the hokage spoke. He chuckled a bit, thinking about himself as an old man, being protected by the young of the day. He couldnt stand the thought.

"You summoned me Lady Hokage?" Taiken bowed as he spoke to her, in respect for her.

[Anthony Sky]

The Hokage icy purple eyes shinned in the the lowering sun as she spoke in gentile tone' It is my time to name a successor to be Hokage I will be stepping down from Hokage at the end of the Exams...I have noticed that you are not that young man looking for a fight and always trying to prove himself to the world with his fist..You are now a Man with patients and looks for a peaceful solution' The Hokage turned around and and looked Taiken in the eyes as she said 'Taiken Ookanei..I wish you to become the next Hokage' Kaiyos Long silver hair flowed to the side in the wind making her look truly stunning

[Silver Cross]

Taikens jaw fell like a rock. He couldnt believe it. The hokage wanted him as a successor, to lead Konoha. He closed his mouth, but his eyes were still wide with disbelief.

"I uhh... I uhh." Taiken tried to recompose himself, wich took him a minute. "Lady Hokage..." He still couldnt find the words. He then took a deep breathe, and closed his eyes. "I do not think I am worthy of the title Hokage."

[Anthony Sky]

'Taiken I would not have chosen You if I did not Believe in to be the guiding light of the Konoha....Hokage' Kaiyo her self even denied the title whe she was first picked to be the next Hokage

[Silver Cross]

Taiken shook his head, still in disbelief. It would have been an honor to be hokage, but the responsibility.

"Surely there is another. Yamato, he is much stronger than I, and is much more experienced, as you have said yourself." Taiken sighed, and continued to shake his head. "Surely there is another."

[Anthony Sky]

The Hokage placed her hand on Taiken shoulder as she said 'I picked you..I have faith in you..I know you will become a great Hokage' Kaiyo new Yamato may be stronger and more experienced but he was not Taiken

ooc Okay I am off to bed

[Jackums]

Ruby picked Keiko up as she looked around, analyzing the other teams. She scanned each member, looking for any clue to their fighting style. Weapons, scrolls, puppets, anything that could help. She was ready for any situation, and was very prepared. She herself, had a medium-large scroll, diagonally across her back. She'd received it from Jesse, before arriving.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin stood at the nearest spot to the gates as he looked over at Kane and then he turned trying to locate Hikoro when he didnt see him he looked back over at Kane Kane i cant find Hikoro did you see where he got off to

Tora walked forward with Yukito any idea when the chunnin exams are supposed to start im getting anxious ive had to do major repairs to my weapons and lots of training and healing im ready

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro looked from side to side watching to see if anyone was following him.No one was.He walked towards the shack and slammed down the door."Yamato-san!Can we start my training now?" he asked eagerly.

Yukito shrugged."I'm not sure but before we start I think it best I do some recon and gather up on the competitions abilities." he dissapeared without a trace.When he returned he would tell Tora everything he found out.

[Anthony Sky]

ooc Please edit your post Naruto1268 for Taiken and the Hokage are good mile away from any one I was keeping the conversion private

Yamato Looked at Hikoro and raised sighed as he said 'Well I dont think I am going to be training you' Yamato could teach Hikoro some real powerfull Jutsu's but it would not help him in the long run

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro's eyes narrowed.He examined Yamato for a moment.Then he shrugged and left.He wasn't the type to dwell on things like that.He would probably end up training himself anyway.He worked better that way.He has always been supporting himself.His entire life.Besides as most chunin found out at the academy he could be a very undesirable student.He did want Yamato to train him but it didn't seem like that was going to happen.

[Anthony Sky]

'Are you pouting Hikoro' The Voice came from behind Hikoro It was Tokuzen he had just got doen talking with Yamato before Hikoro barged in the talked about him for Yamato had no clue how to train Kaname Clan member to use there Kuro Kinjutsu(Dark Magic) to the fullest but the Kaname Clan and the Moto clans Kekkai Genkai are vary similar meaning Tokuzen could help in ways Yamato could never in trainng Hikoro to use his Kuro Kinjutsu to the fullest that his why The Hokage placed Hikoro in in Tokuzens squad

ooc This is what I was planning form the beginning

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro whirled around at the familer voice. "Eh....oh nothing......Yamato-san said he wasn't going to train me thats all....." he said his voice quiet.The dry wind blew his hair back fearcely.

[Anthony Sky]

Tokuzen walked up and next to Hikoro with his hands in his pockets as he said 'Yes I know...We had a long conversion about it..the truth is I am Sensei and I was made so for a reason it is because of are Kekkai Genkai's for they are both have remarkably similar...so what I am saying is that I am the one who will be training you one on one' Tokuzen was one of the strongest Jounin in the Konoha so he was more then qualified despite his age to have three Gennin students

[Silver Cross]

The Hokage placed her hand on Taiken shoulder as she said 'I picked you..I have faith in you..I know you will become a great Hokage' Kaiyo new Yamato may be stronger and more experienced but he was not Taiken

ooc Okay I am off to bed

Taiken breathed hard, for a moment, seeming to be out of breath for some reason. He couldnt imagine it. Him, as the Hokage, the leader of one of the five great villages. He looked down, and thought quietly. Being Hkage would be a massive pound of responsibility, and he would have to live up to expectations.

"Me?" He thought back, to the Hokage statues, and all the great people that lined the face of the cliff, he could not see himself along with the faces.

[Anthony Sky]

The Hokage smiled with warmth as she said with gentile tone 'Yes' She had full faith in him to become a great Hokage that would always keep the village safe from all danger

[Silver Cross]

Taiken seemed to stop all motion, even breath, for his body didnt expand as a breathing body did. A moment later he returned to normal, and began to nod slowly, trying to accept it before he lost his nerve.

"If you believe me capable of the duty, Lady Hokage."

[GangstaKage]

"Oh...." said Hikoro thoughtfully.He paused for a moment.His mind traced through what he knew about the Moto clan's kekkai genkai.Green sheilds.Solar energy.That was about all he knew.But if Tokuzen-sensei said so....."Alright!When do we start!" he said eagerly

[Anthony Sky]

The Hokage turned back around to face the sun set in all its glory as she said 'I would not have chosen you I did not believe in you' The Hokage hair danced to the left with the wild winds reflecting the the golds of the sky

Tokuzen made a thinking face then looked down at Hikoro and said 'Well the exams will start in only a few hours from now...so it will have to wait until after' Tokuzen training would be rough real rough and possibly life threatening so it would not be a good idea to do any training before the exams

EDIT

[Silver Cross]

Taiken nodded, as he recomposed himself. He had no words to speak, because he didnt know what to say. He watched the sunset, and the beauty it created with it. He chuckled a bit as the wind blew, and he watched the Hokage's hair dance in the wind.

I wonder what Shoda will think of this," Taiken thought to himself. The silver feathers of Taikens wings ruffled in the wind, aching to fly free through the air, going where the wind took them.

[Anthony Sky]

The Hokage laughed slightly 'I am sure He will respect my choice' The Turned to face Taiken as she looked him in the eyes she said ' We will take this to the next step after the exams...for I most go and start getting things ready' The Hokage then mad a hand sign a vanished in flash of silver light

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro frowned dissapointedly.He drew a kunai and twirled it around with nothing to do.A single leaf blew from beyond the fence.Hikoro caught it inbetween his fingers.It split directly in half from the wind chakra.He tossed the two peices aside and walked dtowards Kin and Kane.

[Silver Cross]

Taiken nodded before she left, then turned around, facing the genin below. He smiled, and didnt even bother with a handsign. The silver explosion occured, and Taiken was gone.

[Anthony Sky]

A voice could be herd through the entire Mountain range ' The chunnin exams will now begin...There will be no leaving the Mountain range until your squad has both a Earth and Heaven scroll..once you have both a proctor will escort you out past the walls' At that vary moment 50 foot tall walls made pure stone shot up and out of the ground enclosing the Mountain range with Anbu on top of the walls ' Good luck Ninja '

[Jackums]

Ruby heard the voice, and looked up in amazement. Her legs began shaking, and she at first became nervous. But she shook her head, snapping out of it. She put Keiko in her backpack, and her eyes became determined. She looked at her team-mates ~ "Ready?", she asked fiercely.
____________________________________________

ooc- Sorry if i'm not on CK. I gtg to bed. I'll get up at 7am, so I don't ruin it for you. =3

[Kaizor]

Hikari was nervous, but she stood stall. She nodded. "Yeah...I am..."

Niko stretched a little after taking a nap on a tree. He jumped down and landed in between the girls. He had a confident grin across his face showing determination. "Alright....let's get funky!"

[Kuro Nagashi]

Tora looked over at Yukito Are you ready to go, we must hurry before were the only ones left here or we will be picked off quickly

Kin looked over at Kane and Hikoro(were pretending your back), as he waited for Kane to give the order to move as soon as he did he would be gone immediatly though he was sure his team could keep up

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro had already dissapeared as ussual walking off without notice.He already saw the competition.

Yukito nodded thoughtfully before picking up a slow pace.

[schrodinger]

kane nodded...."Now" he said clearly...and imediately dashed to a large tree covered ravine.......this was their starting point.......defendable and great for ambushing other teams......

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin was moving before the word was completly out and was then standnig in a hidden spot in the tree waiting for a good team to ambush

Tora walked beside Yukito he was in no hurry if someone attacked them, they wouold be beaten to a bloosy pulp and loose their scroll

[Jackums]

Ruby nodded ~ "Let's go!", she said, as she began running, on her way to a deeper part of the Mountain range. There they could decide and discuss the best plan of attack.

[Kaizor]

Niko and Hikari followed Ruby into the mountain. They began escalating in heights as they went deeper up.

As they were climbing up, a purple cloaked figure with a gold necklace resembling the Shamal clan's old samurai chain was hanging over his neck, along with gold chains across his wrists on the cloak. The hood was up too, so his face was concealed. He had his sights set on everyone in the exam. He performed a single hand sign, as his body seemed to grow shorter....his cloak was way larger than his body now, but it didn't matter...he continued standing on the mountain, a Kumogakure headband gleaming from the sunlight on him..

[Jackums]

Ruby swiftly made her way up the mountain, with Niko and Hikari beside her. Her long crimson hair was in a high ponytail. She always had it like that when in battle. It shone an even brighter red in the sun. Keiko remained in her backpack. Normally, he'd be out, running beside her. But there were large sharp rocks, and high cliffs. Keiko could most definately make it past these obstacles, but with the other ninja, Ruby didn't want to take that risk.

[Kaizor]

They all stayed close by each other. Hikari, while running, looked on top of the mountain. Due to the sun's glare, she had to squint her eyes. She noticed dark cloaked figure was blocking some of the sun's light shining to the ground. Hikari's eyes widened a little. "Guys...there's someone on top of the mountain..." Hikari said with cautiousness.

Niko laughed a little. "Baha! This is our chance to get one of the scrolls...we're gonna ambush him girls..."

[Jackums]

Ruby grabbed Niko by the collar, and swiftly jumped over a large rock, landing behind it where they couldn't be seen ~ "You wanted to be leader. So try act like one. We can't ambush someone from the front. Especially since we know nothing about them, or where their teammates are", she said, growling at Niko.

[Kaizor]

Niko looked scared. "Uh...well...I didn't say where we were gonna ambush him...besides, where else can we go? He's on top of a mountain point!" Niko tried to defend himself, but his eyes showing fear of Ruby didn't help his case that much. Hikari jumped and landed behind both of them. She looked up where the man once was....he was gone. She gasped.

"Ruby! Niko! He's gone!" she called as quietly as she could, trying to get their attention. "Look up!"

Niko looked up, and his face twisted in surprise. "Ooooh...snap."

[Jackums]

Ruby let go of Niko's collar and peeked over the rock ~ "Damnit! Either way, we did the right thing. We can't charge in, knowing nothing about our opponent", she said, as she tightened her backpack, "Get ready. They could be anywhere.."

[Kaizor]

Hikari nodded, and Niko stood up. Niko rubbed the collar of his shirt a little. "Geez, a little tighter and we'd have had a problem." he looked up at the mountain top. "Alright, well, keep on the lookout, he could be anywhere. Let's get on the mountain top and survey the teams from up there...any objections?" Niko asked this time, before actually carrying out the plan.

"Well, being on the top of a mountain would leave us open in a way. If we do it, each of us have to watch from all three sides." Hikari suggested.

Niko nodded in agreement. "Yeah, that's what we're gonna do. And also keep a lookout for that guy from earlier. Something tells me he's gonna be trouble."

[schrodinger]

Kane motioned with his hand, and suddenly, a strange red sphere lay by nikos feet..........kane hid himself with his camoflauge jutsu............he had five small blue tubes in his right hand attached to wires.......one of his own....incredibly danderous inventions.....

[Jackums]

Ruby thought for a second ~ "Well, you are leader. And it could be a major advantage for us, being able to see all of the other teams. Okay, let's go! Keep you eyes on everything!", she said, jumping out from behind the rock, and running higher up, towards the peak.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin was posed ready for his time to spring he and Kane had used this plan many times but Niko and his squad had never seen it Kin cracked his knuckles by clenching his fist and then he was holding his kunei he was gidy with excitment

ooc:

schroo i need you to PM me real quick

[Kaizor]

Niko began to follow Ruby, when Hikari was all like, "Niko! Look below!"

Niko looked below, noticing a red sphere beneath his feet. He jumped up in the air quickly. "What the hell is this?!" Niko landed beside Hikari, and looked up at Ruby. "Ruby, we have company."

Hikari looked a little nervous about the opponents, but she was toughening it out...she wondered if the person she saw above the mountain was these new opponents' teammate...

[Jackums]

Ruby smelt their scent almost immediately. She turned and yelled ~ "Niko. Move!", she said, as she threw three shuriken at Kane. No camoflauge jutsu could hide from her nose. She slid along the ground, and pulled out a kunai, and held it up ~ "Everyone, over here!".

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin jumped from the tree behind Ruby slamming his fists down towards Ruby's head if this hit Ruby would be out of action for a little while he was moving at a little less than half speed which was still plenty fast to catch them off guard and this was with his weights on but he wouldnt have to remove them after all the speed training he had recived from Kiir

[schrodinger]

the red sphere exploded in a layer of incredibly sticky goo, trapping the kunai ......which began hardening imediately......kin would avoid it easily since he knew about it ahead of time........ once the goo bomb exploded, kane imediately threw one of the blue tubes into the fray.......as it reached the goo, it sent a powerful electric pulse through it.......

(OOC: kane nicknamed this technique, the muck zapper)

[Jackums]

Ruby was hit, as she went flying across the ground. It seemed she'd been knocked unconcious. At first anyway. Both Ruby, Hikari and Niko all burst into smoke. They were clones. The team was smart. They'd planned ahead. Ruby flipped over a large rock nearby, and smiled. She through four kunai at Kin, and performed handsigns ~ "Phoenix Flower Jutsu!". She inhaled, and as she exhaled, she shot out multiple fireballs at both Kin and Kane.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin blocked kunei he was at the very edge of the weapons range that Kane had used weaving quick handsighns Suiton: water wall a wall of water formed around Kin and Kane blocking the phoenix flower jutsu as the water fell down he looked over at Kane as Kin disappeared in a blur he was repositioning himself

[schrodinger]

as the flames neared kane they misteriously were snuffed out....... kane crossd his arms, then, pulling two triggers, shot hundreds of poisoned senbon at the opposing group with his, weapon, nicknamed the stinger gauntlet....

[GangstaKage]

Something flew through the air.A kunai it seemed.Though it was slightly linger and a white bony color.It glew blue making it stand out amongst the brown and green of Iwagakure's Life Mountain.Kane and Kin knew what it was, but chances are the other team didn't.Suddenly a very large wave of water erupted from the kunai heading down the slope rapidly towards Niko Hikari and Ruby.It picked up mud debris and rock as it flowed rapidly down hill.They would have to act quickly to avoide it.A black shillouette appeared amongst the green leaves of a tree.A smile and a pair of goggles glittered in the sun......Hikoro had arrived.

[Kaizor]

The senbon struck straight through everyone. As it seemed they were defeated, a bright solar flare appeared where Niko was. Instantly, the team of three were gone, and Kane and Kin would find themselves in a warped-like Genjutsu world. The light in the Genjutsu was blinding, and the sun's rays seemed to sink inside of them in the Genjutsu world.

Meanwhile in the real world, Hikari performed a short string of hand signs, and Niko stood tall. Niko glanced at Ruby, and nodded at Hikari.

"Vine Shawl," a layer of vines began growing out of the mountain, but it grew abnormally fast. The vines began wrapping around the Kin and Kane in the real world, while they would fight off the Genjutsu.

[schrodinger]

before the vines even reached kane a huge flash emited in the real world from kanes eyes.......and his eyes were then the same eyes of the feared rein.........he smiled as the genjutsu shattered.......then he looked directly at hikari............and kane threw a kunai.....it was incredibly fast.....faster than would be normaly possible......and then kane threw another kunai, hitting the back of the first, so that both sped up and the first diverted to Niko

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin wove the release handseal cutting off the flow of his chakra as he appeared in the real world, just as the kunei flew past them Kin nodded taking off behind the kunei headed right for Ruby weaving handsighns speeding up lightning crackled in his hand stabbing his hand into the ground sending lightning at all three of his teams oppenets as he did a simple handspring into the air. descending very slow

[Jackums]

Ruby jumped backwards, doing multiple acrobatic moves and backflips. She slid along the ground as she made handsigns ~ "Phoenix Flame Jutsu!", she yelled, firing a massive flame at Kin and Kane. But she didn't stop there. She continued making handsigns, preparing for her next move.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin was in the air he would use this to his advantage creating a clone using it to spin him out of the way proppeling him at Ruby as the clone was hit he flipped aiming a drop kick for Ruby's head, Hikoro should be providing support right about now but Kin couldnt depend on help he could take Ruby on his own

[GangstaKage]

Something flew through the air.A kunai it seemed.Though it was slightly linger and a white bony color.It glew blue making it stand out amongst the brown and green of Iwagakure's Life Mountain.Kane and Kin knew what it was, but chances are the other team didn't.Suddenly a very large wave of water erupted from the kunai heading down the slope rapidly towards Niko Hikari and Ruby.It picked up mud debris and rock as it flowed rapidly down hill.They would have to act quickly to avoide it.A black shillouette appeared amongst the green leaves of a tree.A smile and a pair of goggles glittered in the sun......Hikoro had arrived.

*feels ignored*:xd:

Hikoro lept of the tree with a wide smirk.His small blade that looked oddly like Asuma's knuckle knives flew through the air.Though much like them chakra flew through them there was only one whole through the end.It was designed for Hikoro by his uncle.He twirled a second one through his finger.The blade flew towards Niko.An invisable spike flew through the air towards him.He wouldn't be able to detect it bery easily though it distorted the air slightly when it was first being formed it would be hard to see in the solid blew of the sky that was behind it.

[Kaizor]

Niko performed a hand sign, and in a flash of solar energy, he was gone. He appeared behind Hikoro near instantly. He smiled at Hikoro. "The power of the sun is right in my hands." Niko said, throwing a simple punch at Hikoro....or so it seemed simple at first. It was actually powered with solar energy, and being hit would be bad for your health.

Hikari jumped back with Ruby. She performed a string of hand seals. "Earth Style: Red Mud River!" reddish-looking mud formed across the mountain shaped like a river and headed towards Kane. While Niko took care of Hikoro, Ruby had Kin, Hikari decided to go after Kane.

[Jackums]

Ruby continued making the handsigns she was preparing. She didn't seem to mind Kin's incoming kick. A cloud of white smoke appeared around Ruby. Before the smoke could clear, a huge fireball shot out at Kin with high speed. He was in mid-air, making it extremely hard to dodge. What had happened? And What was in the smoke? This would soon be revealed.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro was glad he didn't have to fight the girls.He was to.....honorable for something like that.As the punch sailed towards him in a swift movement Hikoro dodged. "Yeah and?" Hikoro said sportingly.Five inconspicuous invisable spikes flew towards Niko from behind.Hikoro spun around sending his elbow very quickly towards his chest attempting to knock the breathe out of him and send him towards the spikes.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin wove quick handseals, but not before the fireball slammed into him why would he leave himself open a burnt log fell to the ground and Kin was nowhere to be found, soon a white fox lunged into the cloud of smoke clawing at Ruby

[schrodinger]

Kane smiled and the mud oddly, turning and going back towards hikari.......at the same time, kane whipped his hand outward, throwing four bomb kunai at hikari......

[Kaizor]

Niko swiftly ducked the elbow. "SO...your ass is gonna be fried!!" Niko said with a funtastic tone. I just fucked up the word funtastic, which isn't even a word.

But anyway...

Niko didn't even notice the spikes were coming. He was just fighting. He flipped above Hikoro appearing behind him, quickly drawing three shuriken. He threw them straight for Hikoro, and one of them had a wire attached to it, with a strange looking explosive tag on the end which Niko still had in his hand as he launched the shuriken.

Hikaro jumped out of the way of the bomb kunai, and landed softly on her feet. She took out two kunai and threw them at Kane as he came for Hikari. As the kunai missed Kane purposely, smoke expelled out of each one. The smoke was multi colored too, like the rainbow. Hikari performed a hand sign, the mud river rising up in the shape of a tiger, charging straight for Kane.

[schrodinger]

suddenly, the bomb kunai redirected, shooting at Hikara........ and the tiger sudenly got a huge round hole blasted through it......some sort of invisible force had destroyed it....... kane grinned..... "Recognize these eyes?" kane asked happily........

[Jackums]

ooc: LMAO! You serious? How strange is this.

The smoke cleared, as something lunged from the smoke, at the white fox. It was revealed. It looked like a large white wolf. It was Keiko! The handsigns she performed earlier were transformation seals. Keiko was huge now, and had large razor fangs. It slashed downwards at the fox.

Meanwhile, Ruby was gone. Or was she? She appeared behind Kin almost instantaneously. She was alot faster than earlier. This was her beast mimicry technique. She had large claws, and fangs. She thrusted her claws at Kin, in a downward motion.

[Kuro Nagashi]

ooc: WTF how did i time that right

ic:

Siske(white wolf) nimbly doded the swipe, Siske was a about the heigth of Kin when standing on all fours, which was plenty big, Siske slid under Keiko and took a swipe at his stomach

Kin smiled increasing his speed spinning around dodging the slash slamming his fist out sideways at Ruby if this connected it would hit dead in the jaw as he brought his knee up at Ruby's chin if you think you can take me in taijutsu you are sadly mistaken

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro smiled.He thrust his arms out forward.A force pushed back the wires towards Niko.One of Hikoro's knuckles blades flew towards Niko's back from behind.Wind chakra formed around it making a swirling sound and increasing it's speed.If it hit it would cut all over Niko's body.Spikes formed again invisable to fly at Niko's back.Hikoro was trying to nail his blind spots.He wasn't getting into any of his higher level techniques yet.

[Kaizor]

Hikari gazed at the tiger, showing little signs of weakness. She looked back at Kane, having no idea what he was talking about, something about eyes. "No...I don't know what you're talking about." Hikari said, as flora energy began gathering around her body. She was preparing for the next attack.

Niko jumped in the air, being grazed by a cut by the knuckle blade. One of the invisible spikes slightly cut him in the leg too. He didn't seem to mind though. Niko performed a hand sign while in midair. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Niko made two clones of himself, appearing in a cloud of smoke. One of the clones used the two bodies to pull back in midair and fly toward Hikoro. As he flew toward him, solar energy began building in his fingertips...it began to charge, and fill up his entire hand with whirling energy, it was like a solar Rasengan. The clone approached Hikoro at high speed, thrusting the whirling solar blast forward with his open palm.

[schrodinger]

Kane smiled......."Good....that should make this one hell of a lot eisier....." he said........and a colosal burst of invisible force rocketed at hikari's stomach.......a slight whispering was the only warning....... at the same time, as a distraction, kane tossed one more bomb kunai.....

[Kaizor]

Hikari was caught completely off guard, and was struck right in the stomach by the invisible force. She coughed up a bit of blood as she slid across the ground. She held her stomach with her left hand, as more flora began gathering around her. She hated pain and inflicting pain on others, but she didn't have much options this time around. Suddenly, a pair of rainbow colored giant butterfly wings appeared on her back. Her wings flapped, repelling the bomb kunai back toward Kane and sending a huge gust of wind speeding toward him. Some of the rock of the mountain was pushed forward too it was so strong...and that wasn't all, Hikari pulled out a small scroll, summoning a wire with kunai attached to it. She released it, firing about 15 kunai at Kane at the same time. Due to the wind from her massive wings, it added to the kunai's speed.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro laughed.This was fun.He held out his hand.Chakra formed into it swirling rapidly.Wind circulated around it very rapidly.Small rock fragments seemed to form and float aorund it. "Bakuha!" Hikoro said slamming his swirling orb into Niko's.Only time would tell which would prevail though the clones would probably dissapitate from the impact of the attack.Bakuha was designed to flow forward to increase it's range destroying anything that falls behind it after impact.The blade with wind chakra hit the ground.Many scars and cuts appeared slashing the ground.The wind flew up towards Niko in an attempt to cut him..

[Jackums]

Ruby seemed to disappear. But she was actually just moving extremely fast ~ "Beat you at Taijutsu? Please, taijutsu and speed are my perfections!", she said with a smile. She slid behind Kin, thrusted her leg at him, with a spinning kick. This could cause major injury if it hit.

Keiko was also human size. He pushed from the ground, shooting into the air. Although.. he had something Siske didn't. An elemental affinity. He opened his jaws and roared, as flames shot from his mouth, aiming down at Siske. He landed on the ground, and began running swiftly.

[Kaizor]

The Niko clone poofed into a big cloud of smoke upon impact, since shadow clones couldn't take a hit. Niko landed on the ground, which led him to dodge the way of the wind. He looked up with a cocky grin. His other shadow clone was missing...was he attacked too...?

Not quite. The other shadow clone jumped out of the ground, appearing behind Hikoro. He had another one of those solar balls charged. "Taiyodama!" Niko exclaimed, thrusting his hand forward aiming for Hikoro's back.

[schrodinger]

kane raised an eyebrow......not what he was expecting..... he reached inside his bag quickly, and withdrew three black canisters......he jumped, then was boosted into the air by something unseen.....and he threw one of the canisters.....it exploded in a huge burst of flames, if hikari didnt move.....she would be very very burned...... meanwhile...kane was standing on thin air.......or something to that effect........and making a large number of handsighns......

[GangstaKage]

This time it was easier for Hikoro to dodge as the attack was more loose.Earlier Hikoro was pinned against the ground and had to act quickly against it.He moved the side moving towards Niko.He brought up the knickle blade slicing towards his chest moving very quickly.Chakra in the blade made it very suckish to get cut by it.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin and Siske jumped in unison Siske growling fur needles erupted from his skin rocketing down on Keiko and Ruby, Kin spun throwing large weights to the ground when they landed they formed a large crater, Kin smiled he was fast enough to keep up with his weights on imagine without them as he looked over at Kane Kane do it now Kane would know what Kin was reffering to they had to work as a team to win this fight when he thought What scroll do you guys have he was adressing ruby

[Kaizor]

Hikari moved briskly out of the way, the flapping of her wings stopped. Flame ignited heavily from the canister and Hikari's wind combined. Bad combo for her sake. Hikari glanced up at Kane with an annoyed expression. "Hey! What are you doing up there?!" she asked, she began performing a long string of hand signs herself. "Fine then..."

The Niko clone got slashed and was owned and poofed into smoke. The real Niko appeared behind Hikoro about 10 meters away. He had been performing a string of hand signs during that time. "Hizashi!" rays of the sunlight began flying out of Niko's body, the rays aiming for Hikoro. It wouldn't do much of anything besides a few minor burns at first...this was really just a power up for Niko's next move. Niko performed more hand signs, putting his open palm in front of his mouth. "Katon: Endan!" he expelled a large fireball out of his mouth, but the fireball was different...it was yellow, not red...

[Jackums]

Ruby and Keiko landed side-by-side. She nodded ~ "Now, Keiko!", she said, as he howled. A massive flame shot from his mouth, straight at Kiske and Kin. But that wasn't the end. Ruby made handsigns quickly ~ "Fuuton: Wind Funnel-Complete control". A funnel of wind formed, merging with the fire. And you know when you blow on fire, it just gets bigger. The flames were intense heat, and speed. They soared at Kin and Kiske, as the intense heat disintigrated the needles.

[schrodinger]

Kane continued his hand seals untill a red glow enveloped the area....when it faded, hundreds and hundreds of senbon, kunai, bomb kunai, and even windmill shuriken materialised around kane.........he put his hands up like a conductor........and then sweapt his arm downwards at hikari.......and a storm of blades and destruction sweapt across the landscape, "Ok, combo time....." he yelled to kin...and nodded.....and kane seemed to dissapeer..... though a faint air shimmer was visible.....

[Kaizor]

Hikari scowled at the weapons approaching her. Her rainbow wings glowed for a second, and released more power with her wind gust technique. It blew some weapons back, but there were too many. Some weapons grazed her skin, allowing some blood to drop. She moaned at the slight pain, but her eyes suddenly shown a hint of anger. Something most people wouldn't recognize in Hikari, as they didn't see her mad too often. She flew in the air about 10 meters up using her wings. She finished her hand seal, as green dust-like material began gathering in the air. She looked over at Niko, and noticed he was unleashing his Hizashi sunrays. Perfect timing...as this was a combo attack with Niko and Hikari. The green dust spread further in the air...doing nothing else yet, as Hikari flew in the air dodging the weapons to the best of her ability.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kane de-summoned Siske he would have to wait for Kane to be completly ready but he might as well go ahead and prepare his part, weaving handssighns he had to make a water lightning combo Suiton+Raiton: liguid ligtning dragon jutsu a water dragon with with lightning particles flowing through it slammed into the fire in a large cloud of steam this provided more cover this combo was going to be big Kane should be ready weaving handsighns Kin began circling Ruby and Hikari at an untracable speed slight blurs could be seen now and then he was waiting for Kane to give him the signal

[schrodinger]

kane finished his handseals and flicked open the top to a flare, throwing it upwards.............the signal..........then the wepons, all united into a singe incredibly huge dragon form........ "Twin dragon oblivion" kane yelled...... and the dragon began to decend...........kane hoped it would work....he had used up too much chakra.....

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin now would seal them in with a double attack this would be the end of his chakra after that he would be down to taijutsu and speed Suiton: grand vertical vortex all around the perimiter of where Kin was running a giant vortex of water shot up sealing in Hikari, Ruby, and Keiko as he wove the last part of the jutsu's handseals Suiton: decending water pillars spears of water lunged from the vortex aiming for Hikari, Ruby, and Keiko. This combo attack would be very hard to avoid as it was the second strongest combo he and Kane possesed but they had to be at full chakra to use that

EDIT
ooc:
my post should be above CK's im sorry it didnt come that way, but that is what it should be so CK could you edit if not we could work something else out

[Jackums]

Ruby knew this was bad. Something big was going to happen. She had to resort to that. She took in a deep breathe and made a string of strange handsigns. They were unique, and unknown to the shinobi world. Red glitter-like dust began multiplying around Ruby. Her eyes had a slight glow to them. She clapped her hands together as an explosion of smoke formed around her, just before the water hit. Smoke clouds also appeared around Hikari and Niko. This would use a large amount of Ruby's chakra.

[schrodinger]

"Ah shit...." kane said.....and began falling........it was the only way for him to avoid the explosion, that he was willing to resort to....but he didnt look foreward to the landing.......he landed.....the shock hurt a lot but he staggered upright....and smiled painedly....... "Well.....i guess thats the way it goes....." he said......."looks like im almost down to just weapons and forbidden jutsu......ill opt for weapons....." he muttered.....

[Kaizor]

OOC: Shit. I accidentally deleted my entire above post. Sorry.

Hikari jumped back now, her time in the fight was over. Ruby, Keiko, and Niko would have to finish.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro watched his squad with thoughtful eyes.They were doing a combo without him.....again.This time he would but in without them knowing.With spare chakra he added five spikes to the mix leaving very little chance of escape.Hikoro moved to avoide the light beams.When he saw Niko's Katon Endan flying towards him he had to block.Hikoro performed handseals "Doton: Douryuu Heki!" Hikoro called as a wall of Earth lept up to block the flames.He continued performing handseals. "Futon: Kazekiri!" yelled Hikoro as a very large amount of wind circulated aorund Niko.It would start cut him to shreds if he didn't move out of the way. "Doton: Tsuyoi Kake" he called as his earth wall broke into powerful and heavy peices. They flew towards Niko very fast tossled by the wind.He would first be immobilized by the wind.Then without being able to move the Earth would crush him.If the attack hit.The earth was increased in power because of the heat of the fire heating the earth so it would probably burn to.

[Kuro Nagashi]

ooc: that sucks

ic:

Kin stood next to Kane panting Kane if this continues we will lose this fight set up a perimeter of traps quickly around my jutsu before its over so after the shock of this attack they might fall into the trap and ill be there to taijutsu them to the end of this forest

[Kaizor]

Niko jumped out of the way and far into the air, avoiding the circling wind. As the pieces of earth flew towards him, Niko performed new hand signs. This time, golden lightning began circling around Niko. His right hand was covered in a golden Chidori. He swung his hand horizontally threw the air, large concentrated bolts of solar lightning flying toward each piece of rock, and after that, two bolts of the lightning heading towards Hikoro. Good thing about Niko was that he had a very high chakra reserve...but he wasn't as strategic as the girls were.

[schrodinger]

Kane nodded...... "Well.......lets do this....." he said....and dissapeered........."

Meanwhile.....hikara, and her squad watched from a nearbye cave....... "Well......both teams are weak now........" Nokoro said calmly........ "We should strike soon...." hikara looked outraged..... "That would be cheating" she scolded nokoro..... "One......dont talk with me unless you have something usefull to say......Two........there is no such thing as unfair....only those to weak to meet their goals......and three...... your nievity is going to get you killed.......the world is cruel....we must be crueller......." nokoro said.......

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro skillfully moved to avoide the lightning though one scraped his leg.He didn't seem to notice.Hikoro too had very large amounts of chakra because of his kekkai genkai.He could make reserves of chakra and store them in his body.While his chakra would replenish after making them he would have these reserves to use later.Pulling a white and bony kunai from his back pouch he through air this glew a brown color.It suddenly burst into many rock fragments that flew towards Niko quickly followed by a powerful wall of invisable force.It would cripple ven the most powerful ninja sending them flying as it was packed with pressure and chakra.Hikoro smirked.

[Jackums]

Ruby came shooting out of the cloud of smoke. Keiko had de-transformed, and was hidden, resting. Ruby pulled the scroll off her back, and unrolled it stylishly. She pressed her hand on it, as a cloud of smoke formed around her. As it cleared, she was holding two scythes, connected by chakra-enhanced chains. She was far from done. She'd gotten Hikari to safety in all the commotion. She leapt up, swinging the scythes rapidly, as she threw one at Hikoro.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro sighed.A wall of invisable chakra formed to block the sythe sending it bouncing off the wall towards Ruby.He had no choice.He bent down and unclipped the weight like objects on his legs.He held them up.The sheild fell and he through one towards Ruby and another at Niko.If they hit it would hurt like hell.It would topple down the trees because of the weight and possably leave a crater.HE moved to his arm weights.They were slightly less weight then the legs but he tossed them at both Ruby and Niko as well.He was getting serious.

[Kaizor]

Niko raised the golden Chidori in his hand, lightning sparks flying everywhere deflecting the rock fragments, well most of them anyway. But he was unable to avoid the invisible wall. He jumped back, but was blown back even farther than he jumped. He performed more hand signs in midair, familiar ones too. Another Kage Bunshin no Jutsu, as only one clone was made this time. Both grabbed each other, and began spinning around like a human shuriken. It looked cool actually. The real Niko let go of the shadow clone though, the shadow clone launching straight at Hikoro. The shadow clone, again, had a Taiyodama in his hand, charging it as he approached. But that wasn't all, the real Niko looked at Hikoro, and performed a single hand sign, a bright flash of light appearing, hopefully blinding Hikoro as the shadow clone approached...he thrusted his hand forward, aiming the solar sphere at Hikoro's chest.

[Jackums]

"Heh".

Ruby smirked, and tightened her grip on the chain. She pulled it towards herself, then thrusted it back out. It shot straight back up at Hikoro ~ "Your shield won't work this time. These weapons are designed to penetrate any type of shield. And now that they've had contact with your chakra, they won't be phased by your pathetic walls and defence jutsu". These weapons were made by the Sannin of the Snow themselves. This is what Ruby received from Jesse before she arrived. The scythes soared at Hikoro with extreme accuracy and speed.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro sighed as the light blinded him.He learned as time progressed not to depend only oin sight.He closed his eyes and got into a taijutsu stance.He stood and listened.He opened his eyes suddenly and moved to the side just in time to avoide the attack.Hopefully the light would subside soon.He dissapeared appeared next to Niko incredibly fast.The weights being removed seemed to increase his speed dramatically.Close combat was not a very good idea now.He sent his chakra blade flying towards Niko wind pulsing through it an attempt to blow him away. "I don't care if I can't block them.I'll dodge them...." he said simply.

[Kaizor]

Niko got blown away by the chakra blade, but he caught himself on the ground. He growled at Hikoro, and glanced at Ruby with her pimp weapons. "Uh...I think I'll stand back for a while..." Niko said, and suddenly, he got a strange, pressure feeling in his chest. It started in his chest, but moved quickly to his whole body. He bent down on one knee...what was going on? "Wh-what's this chakra...presence I feel nearby?" Niko asked himself in disbelief.

A cloaked ninja was nearby, hiding behind nearby rocks on the mountain. His eyes were showing a tad bit of interest at the others. He was wearing a Kumogakure headband...a gold necklace, looking just like the necklace Sidian Shamal wore, and gold chains on his wrist to his cloak. He was hiding...but his chakra...was enormous...no way it was Genin-level.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro sighed. "Guess like it's you and me..." he was very hesitant.He was taught to be honorable and respectful.This included not fighting women but helping them at every chance he got.Would he go against that rule for once in his life or let his squad down.He watched Ruby warily. "Ladies first.." he said with a genuine smile.

[Jackums]

Ruby felt this massive chakra in the mountains nearby. She was a little overwhelmed. But she had no choice but to keep her mind in the fight. She nodded and took a breathe. She performed handisgns ~
"Katon Eruption". She slammed her palm into the ground. Flames shot from the ground, coming from the cracks everywhere. She then began spinning both the scythes on the chains, as she did many flips, and acrobatic moves. She spun, and threw it at Hikoro, with extreme speed.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro avoided the flames.He drew a couple kunai from his puch.They appeared to be normal kunai.He through three kunai towards Ruby.There were invisable chakra wires attached that were so thin they would be unnoticed evn if they were visable.They had fake paper bombs attached.He threw the other tow at the ground next him.He performed quick handseals. "Doton: Doryudan!" he called as suddenly a giant dragon mouth opened up from the ground.Projectiles of mud and earth began firing rapidly from it's mouth towards Ruby. "Futon: Daitoppa!" he inhaled and then blew a large amoutn of cutting winds tat increased the Earth projectiles speed and would enhance the attack in a devastating combo.To top it all off invisable chakra spikes formed behind her firing very quickly.They would be hard to notice because they were invisable though the air swirled slightly were they were when it first formed before it fired off towards her.A small swooshing sound could be heard from behind her.

[Jackums]

Ruby performed handisigns, and bit her thumb. She placed her palm onto the ground, as smoke appeared ~ "Sudden Defence!". A medium sized steel wall rose from the earth as Ruby's feet. The mud projectiles dented it. But she never planned on staying behind it. It blocked all incoming attacks. She was unseen, and hidden behind it. Silence fell for a short time. Suddenly, Ruby shot from the ground at Hikoro's feets, she thrashed her scythes both, downwards at Hikoro. He couldn't block them with any jutsu. They were designed to penetrate defences. And she was moving very fast. It'd be hard to evade this attack.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro sighed and performed handseals.He sunk into the ground just as the sythes hit were he had been standing.Hikoro through two more kunai towards ruby.These had explosive notes attached.Hikoro lept into the air.Hikoro extended his palm.Suddenly a tremendous pressure would be pushing in on Ruby.Enough to smash her.He enclosed his palm into a fist and the chakra and wind enclosed on her.She would have to get out in about a second to avade the attack.Spikes surrounded the area though so when she left to escape they would close in on her.Probably unseen.He pulled out his chakra blade from his pouch.

[Jackums]

Ruby didn't move. She stood, as the force pushed in on her until.. it turned to smoke. It was a clone. And before Hikoro could react, Ruby was about 20 metres behind him. She performed handsigns and held out her palms ~ "Fuuton: Wind Sphere". A sphere of wind began forming around Hikoro. It would soon become extremely rough, and slice into him. She then prepared another string of handsigns. Fire rose from the ground, forming a giant wolf-shaped ball of flames. Ruby was very drained after this. She fell to the ground, as blood ran out of her mouth, down her cheek ~ "Heh", she forced a smile. The flaming wolf was huge. It swung it's claw downwards at Hikoro, who was trapped in the sphere of wind.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro watched impassively as he was attacked.He was trapped in the wind orb.He watched as the flames wolf linged towards him.Suddenly wall of chakra erupted form him forcing out the wind allowing him to move.He dodged quickly to the side.He was scorched on his foot by the wolfs large claws.He landed putting the weight on the uninjured leg.There was a large scratch across his left eye.He kept it close.He winced at the searing pain that went through his leg.He turned to the wolf.He thorugh another one of his special kunai.This was glowed blue like the first.As it moved towards the wolf water burst from in a massive wave that flew quickly towards the roof.Suddenly Hikoro was kneeling by Ruby with a goofy smile on his face. "I can heal your wounds if you want?" he said politely offering her a hand to help her get up.He forced chakra to strengthen his weakened leg.That would tak esome time to heal. "Wow! Your good. Not much has pushed me that far.I depleted two of my reserves. Who's your sensei?"

[Jackums]

Ruby was on the ground, with only one eye opened. She was shaking as he neared her. She went to grab a kunai, but there was too much pain in her arm. She flinched, and made a moan of pain. When he spoke, she was completely shocked at his words. She was speechless at first ~ "W-what? But..", she didn't know what to say.

[GangstaKage]

"But.....what?" he asked bewilderedly.... "I could fight if you stilll want to but in your condition.....or mine I don't think thats such a good idea..." He tiltled his head to the side slightly.He extened his hand once more to help her up.THe wind pushed his hair back.

Yuki walked through the forest nonchalantly looking for an opponant....

[Jackums]

Ruby smiled ~ "Thanks.. And um, my sensei is..", she wasn't sure if she could tell him. She knew Jesse was wanted, and was in Akatsuki at one point. She just paused for a second.

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro wondered why she was hesitante but he didn't want to pry and make things uncomfortable.When she took his hand to help her get up he used that to send chakra through her body and replenish some of it and to heal surface wounds.He reached back and pulled out a round brown pill.A food pill.It should help regain Ruby's strength.He handed it to her.

[Jackums]

She made a smile ~ "Thanks", she grabbed the pill, and gulped it down. She was slowly healing from the inside out. She did know medical jutsu, and was very good at it too. But she didn't have nearly enough chakra to use it at this point. She made a curious face and looked at Hikoro, "Um.. it's not that I'm not grateful.. but why are you helping me?", she blushed a little, but she tried to hide it.

[GangstaKage]

"Your not my enemy?So why not help you?" he said it kindly though as if it was an obvious answer.He smiled slightly at her blush.

[Jackums]

Ruby smiled again. She was beginning to feel better, thanks to Hikoro ~ "So.. what happens now..? Your teammates won't like this, will they?", she said, looking down at the ground.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Tora walked alongside Yukito hopefully someone would come find them he was bored and he kept twitching his fingers everynow and again you would see something move through the forest a dull chatter coming from it

Kin appeared next Hikoro Hikoro i understand you are being polite and all but were not done here Kin looked over at Ruby some of his chakra had restored due to his Hansor kekki genkai but not enough to perform large scale elemental jutsu maybe a couple of clones but that was it so what scroll do you guys have

[schrodinger]

Suddenly, a blast of lightning flew down from the tree canopy......it headed straight for tora.......at the same time, several kunai with strange golden bomb tags flew from behind......

[Kuro Nagashi]

Tora saw the flame coming and knew to be aware for an attack from behind so, he did a sideways flip to the side dodging both the attacks, his teeth chattering from the excitment he waited for the attackers to show themselves

[schrodinger]

As tora moved, the kunai exploded, but not into smitherines, rather....they seemed to expand, and senbon flew everywhere...... meanwhile, in the trees hikara got ready to pounce....... Tekazu slipped on his arm sheilds, and dashed out from the back, atempting to slash toras legs......Hikara began rubbing her hands together very fast...........very high voltage ripled the air around her......

[Kuro Nagashi]

ooc: im battling my own team, that i trained

ic:

Tora saw the oncoming attacks and couldnt dodge all of the attacks slammed into him, he should be dead but no he turned and looked down at Tekazu lungin his arms out for him catching him in a giant bear hug soon the skin had flaked away revealing the crow puppet holding onto Tekazu

[schrodinger]

Tekazu smiled......and held up a bomb tag.....which he stuffed into the puppets mouth......and then he put his arm shields up.......

meanwhile, hikara leaped high from the tree canopy and then put her hands out, shooting out hundreds of tiny bolts....... "Ok......lets flush him out nokoro!" she yelled........ nokoro looked at her incredoulously...... "No thanks"........ he said coldly......

[Kuro Nagashi]

The bomb tag was about to explode but it just poofed instead of destroying Crow, the crow puppet had sprayed a chemical on the tag stopping it from exploding as it spewed posion gas all around Tokezou and at this range it would very hard to evade, as the lightning bolts flew in all directions the real Tora remained hidden watching

[Jackums]

Ruby pulled out a kunai as Kin neared. She jumped back, sliding along the ground ~
"I'm not giving you the scroll", she said, with determined eyes.

[schrodinger]

Tekazus eyes widened, and he imediately reaached into his bag, claping a gass mask to his face........then he swung his sheild.....trying to cleave the crow puppet in half.....

Hikara, grimaced.....and yelled..." Come on......we need you!" hikara yelled indignantly..... Nokoro lauphed "If so....then it seems you're screwed......" he said and leaned back calmly on the tree........ Hikara wanted to shoot him, but instead channeled her anger......she dived.......hurdling downwards...........and landed......she landed behind crow, and sent a wave of electricity through the air, cuting off what chakra strings it hit......

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin chuckled i only want the scroll if you have the one we need. if not we will go our seprate ways

the crow puppet was hit right in a joint falling in half the two halfs lay there, suddenly two small pidgeon looking puppets glided from trees metal blades as their wings each one of them aiming for a diffrent target this was the diversion of his plan

[schrodinger]

Hikara looked up and flipped backwards....and two lightning bolts flew from her fingers.......riping the air.....and headed for a crash course with the bird puppets......nokoro looked on, rolling his eyes.... "Ameteurs....." he muttered.....

[Kuro Nagashi]

The bird puppets rolled to the sides still on a course to attack Hikari when behind Tekouzu a giant spinning turtle came spinning from behind him high pressure water circling the turtle puppet aiming for Tekouzu's back if this hit it would do some major damage, this was two of Tora's animal puppets he had seven more plus his human puppet that he crafted to look just like him

[schrodinger]

Tekazus eyes widened and he quickly spun around......the water hit his sheilds, it blew him back, and some cut up his legs and chest.......however.......even as he went flying....he was beggining to heal....... "Thought so.......but wheres nokoro?" he yelled....... Hikara gritted her teeth and clenched her fist................her arm glowed electric blue.......and she waited ready to react at any moment.....

[Kuro Nagashi]

the turtle puppet took a course upwards and disappeared it was hiding ready for the next strike, Tora guessed that they had forgotten about his pidgeon puppets the pidgeon puppets were right on Hikari ready to cut her to shreds if she didnt move in about 2mili seconds she wouwld have two cuts on her sides with parylizing posion seeping into her system this posion was his own creation too making it even harder to heal

[schrodinger]

"Raiden technique 1.......vortex" she yelled.......and spun around ....a huge vortex of blue lightning blasted the bird puppets to smitherines.......then....she spun her arm downwards.......and the vortex shot right at the turtle puppet...... hikara was breathing hard......even the most basic of her clan justu were incredibly powerful....but they took a great toll on her......

[Kuro Nagashi]

The pidgeon puppets were down but Tora had plenty of them, the turtle puppet had already disappeared, he could tell that Hikari was tiring so he inferred she had a low stamina and from Tekazu's healinghe was a medic ninja. Now at least twenty of those pidgeon puppets rushed from all directions each with diffrent kinds of paralyzing posion dripping from their wings all aiming at Hiakri and Tekazu, if they didnt move soon they wouldnt be able to dodge

[schrodinger]

sudenly, all of the pigeon pupets exploded........and nokoro stood next to the real tora........ "I cant believe that im teamed up with these idiots....." he mutterd, a kunai at toras throat.......

[Kuro Nagashi]

Tora moved his fingers rapidly and suddenly he was standing behind Nokoro and the Tora infront of Nokoro spun his head around launching a row of yellow lookning kunei at Nokor if these hit they would pollute Nokoro's blood stream causing extreme pain and movement unbearable as invisble chakra strings wrapped around Nokoro, why hadnt Yukito stepped in yet

[Kaizor]

Niko and Hikari ran over to assist their teammate Ruby. "Ruby, are you alright? I'm sorry I couldn't fight anymore...my chakra is depleted for now."

"I can help out there, but I think we have a bigger problem...I'm pretty sure this is the Chuunin exam right?" Niko asked curiously, but he knew the answer already...of course.

"Uh...yeah..." Hikari answered, looking at him like he was stupid.

"I thought so...then what's with this huge chakra pressure I feel? Seriously it's not Genin level, or Chuunin level..."

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin knew what they were talking about he had felt it eralier, but he was to busy Okay im going to take charge for once, if this presence wanted to take us down the best time for him to do it would be now while were week so our best bet would be to work together as a group of six, that way we have a better chance of survival if it comes after us

Shoda stood on the top of the wall looking down at Kin, Kane, Hikoro, Niko, Hikari, and Ruby, he had sensed the large chakra he would watch out for the squads but they would have to fend for themselves for a while before he could step in he would have to asses the enemy as a threat or not to the gennin

The Kazekage was watching he would also step in if the presence was a threat to the six gennin in the clearing they were all looking tired, hopefully they would release they should eat some food pills before the presence had a chance to attack them or they would all definatly die, though Kuro would protect them that was his job make sure no one died and call fights if they got to serious

[schrodinger]

the kunai hit......or did they...... a blast of smoke covered the are, and hanging from a wire, was a bomb tag.......which exploded, likely dammaging the tora puppet....... meanwhile....kunai began flying from nowhere.....it was slightly creepy......

kane nodded..... "Well......lets combine our streangths for now......." he said grudgingly......

[Kaizor]

Niko and Hikari nodded in agreement to Kin. "Yeah, let's work together for now...I have a bad feeling about this..."

The cloaked man with the golden necklace and Kumogakure headband stepped out behind the rock. His chakra was actually beyond a Jounin maybe, and that was compressed. Obviously, this was not a good situation. The man's face was hidden under the hood. Although, a sadistic smile could be seen on his face. "Hello....I believe you have my scroll?" the man asked in a mocking tone, pointing slowly toward the group of six.

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin drew a kunei and looked back at the man what do you mean your scroll, this is the chunnin exams you are not a chunnin why are you here

The Tora puppet was slightly damaged while suddenly there was a small cut on Tokazu's cheek there was no posion in this cut or anything. Tora was completly conceleads he would let his puppets do the work until Yukito showed up to finsh them off, though he cuoldnt beleive he was bringing out this puppet out of them all

[schrodinger]

sudenly, there were ten bomb tags on the tora puppet....but the sourse was hidden....... the bomb tags exploded, probable destroying the puppet....... this was undoubtedly the work of nokoro.....nicknamed the phantom of the mists.....

tekazu looked startled, even as the cut sealed.....he quickly held up his sheilds.....waiting.......

kane covertly began building up his chakra......

[Kuro Nagashi]

The Tora puppet fell to the ground smoking suddenly it was gone Tora didnt need it anymore soon bluirs were moving all around Tekazu suddenly flashes of blades could be seen around him some had posion some didnt but, the speed was so great these attacks would be very hard to attack, and the same spot was never being struck twice

[Kaizor]

"Oh nonsense. I am in fact a participate in this exam." the man said, an obvious lie. He knew the other Genin knew it was a lie too.

"Bullsh!t. Your chakra level is far above a Genin's level...it's actually around Jounin level. Don't give us that!"

"What do you want from us?! You don't have any business being here!"

The man raised his hands up in a surrendering position. "Ah shit, you caught me. I just thought I'd see the participants of the upcoming bearers of Chaos..."

Niko and Hikari were confused. What did he mean by 'Chaos'? "Man, screw this," Niko drew a kunai and threw it directly at the man, attacking just like that. The man grabbed the kunai by the ring at the end and twirled it in his hand.

"Careful now...children shouldn't be playing with sharp objects..."

[Kuro Nagashi]

Kin frowned taking charge he wasnt going to let us all die Guys calm down, let him make the first move, dont go getting yourselves killed. Kane take the rear set up. Ruby behind Kane anyone who gets injured take care of them immeditaly. Hikoro fan left Niko fan right. Hikari, behind him, play this smart

[schrodinger]

Tekazu stumbled back...covered in cuts....though his keki genkai had reppeled the poison.......he was suffering a lot of pain.......he clutched at one of the deeper cuts......"Crap......im gonna have to use my new jutsu....." he said heavily.......and did a strange sieries of hand seals.........for him, the world seemed to slow down......though he was not looking foreward to the side effects.........as he caught sight of the [fill in the blank] he thrust his arm out......if it touched, the pupet would rot in a matter of seconds......

[Kuro Nagashi]

The small leapord puppet was barely grazed but before the full effects of the rotting could take in it was gone again this time it was attacking Hikari with the same speed ever slash this time had posion on the blades even one of this would paralyze a giant rhino, suddenly a giant rhino puppet charged at Tekazu made completly of steel and other materials the horn was a yellow color grab the horn and find out what happens to you

[schrodinger]

OOC: tora is a little.......well.....a lot overpowered for a genin......no offence....but its a little ridiculous.......

Hikara felt the sting of a blade on her leg and imediately felt the poison......she winced, and dissapeered....hiding herself in the nearbye cave.......she then, slowly touched her leg and sparks danced......she almost screamed in pain.......she had litteraly burnt out the poison from the inside.......tears sprung to her eyes....but she shakily stood and began doing hand seals.....

Tekazu quickly flipped up over the rhinos back and landed on top of it........he still had his release active.......he placed a hand on the back, if it was not removed quickly, then the rhino would be nothing but a pile of coroded mettle.....

[Kuro Nagashi]

ooc: im sorry we will have to wait for Ryan, i wouldnt do so much if he was hear, but im kinda fighting for the both of us as hes the other in my squad

[GangstaKage]

Hikoro watched Sidian."Your a really bad liar....." he said seriously.He popped a food pill in his mouthe but he didn't move from the spot like Kin insisted.Instead he drew one of his chakra blades.The other floated behind Sidian.He lunged forward with the small knuckle blade his finger through the hole.He hoped to distract him from the front and hit him from behind with the other blade.

Oddly enough around were Tora was fighting it began to snow!Snow?In the Earth village?As it was snowing out of one flake a senbon flew from it.Then another.Multiple senbon were flying out at Hikara's squad from all directions.

[Kuro Nagashi]

The rhino was nothing but corrided metal by now but that was nothing Yukito was now taking care of it. The leapord puppet moved nearly invisble through the snow striking at Hikara and Tekazu a flesh eating posion dripping from the blades. the puppet though was moving a tad bit slower but still fast enough
