The Treacherous Climb

Mokona would listen to the rebuttal from the girl, she was a proper stand for a Jounin, as Mokona would nod as he listened, he would then wait as she spoke to the bird giving it commands. Mokona would just await for this to truly begin for them, he knew this would be one of those near life experiences. The bird would soon enough set off to scope out the mountain as the blue eyed shinobi watched for a moment he would look back at Marii. "Well then Marii, it would seem you have a good idea how to kill it. Remember the dragon's belly can be one of it's weaknesses if you find yourself in the confrontation," he didn't want the girl to die, no matter what, his goal was truly to protect her if anything. If he got the scroll yet she died in the battle the mission in a sense would be a complete failure. He wouldn't set off till he was informed of how the mountain really looked, and what kind of dragon he was up against.

Worst case scenario, he was fighting this dragon alone, God did he hope that wouldn't happen. Despite being well trained in battle, he really wasn't in the mood to coming close to death so quickly. As she spoke it would seem that it was time to truly begin this mission. He pulled out his MPG's despite having one eye he had modified it to work for him. The wondrous point of this mission though, was it was night, and would give him the cover of darkness. The moon was out in full but he cared not he could mask himself if need be. He switched to night vision for now, to make his climb easier, if he heard movement he would put them onto thermal to allow for him to see the dragon. As the girl launched off towards the trees he himself would move towards the cliff as he switched it to channel one on his comm device. "Let's roll out Daki-kun," his eye viewed the surrounding through the night vision as the epic battle would soon begin...

So the journey would begin to the location that he was going to entertain himself. Following the bird to the direct mountain wall, the unfortunate thing known as time would seem to pass within five minutes, he was at the wall. The bird would sit on the shelf and look at him with a nod, Marii would speak over the channel. A deep breath and the Chuunin would begin the climb of the wall, using his hands and feet for now, if it would become harder, a kunai would be his first tool to help him climb. As he would begin his rise up the wall, he could tell it had been awhile since he really had a good work out. Marii's voice would ring over the set once again, no movement from the dragon above. "Rodger," a silent whisper would go back over the radio waves. Little words were needed for now as he scoped out his scenery in the nigh vision. The shinobi wouldn't use his chakra just yet, relying on basic strength to pull himself up the mountain, he wanted to rest his reserves for the battle that could come.

So this movement, would Mokona have trouble climbing, or would the dragon begin to move? Was Marii going to be capable of distracting the beast long enough for the lanky blond to snag the scroll and get out... Only time could tell as he would put one hand in front of another, using his legs to push himself along with the pulls from above. Hopefully Daki would be able to keep a close eye out on the surroundings as well. Otherwise he was a true sitting duck on this mountain wall. The song of his past playing in his head, a Song of the Century, with a wicked little smile branded on his face.

Mokona would rise up a bit after speaking, reaching about five meters from the top of the mountain peak, he would use his own ears to listen through the ground. While he was waiting he would pull free a katana from his side, he was formulating his own plan. Then while holding it he pulled out a large amount of explosive tags in use that he could basically create a bomb. Lacing the blade with six big bang tags, and eight exploding tags, he would make sure they stayed tight around the blade with his chakra laced in them. So he would be able to stab the sword into the dragon that was supposedly above him. At this moment Marii would be launching the kunai with the tag, as he would shoot up from beneath the surface, the belly of the dragon resting on the ground. The sword aimed up he himself wouldn't truly exit the earth but his hand would as the entire blade would hopefully dig into the chest of the dragon. Knowing that the stomach of the dragon was one of it's weakest points. If he felt the blade dig into the dragon he would quickly jet back beneath the earth twelve meters or so. The moment the blade had dug in would be around the time Marii's tag exploded.

Saying the blade had hit it's target and he would make his way back twelve meters down, making it probably the distance of twelve and a half meters. He would use a single hand seal to set off the six big bang tags, and eight exploding tags. The sheer force would be enough to do extreme amounts of damage to the dragon. Not killing but creating a large wound that in the end could cause it to bleed to death. The words in his mouth uttered in a cold tone. "Die..." his surprise attack would surely force the dragon up into the air, and hopefully after Marii, injured and weaker the Dragon should be easy pray for Marii and her arsenal.
