It was so hot! But this was the Lord Jashin's will to have her out here, planting before her, a massive behemoth. The wild boar wa snot native but it was hulking, puffing and glaring her down. "Please." Hecate nearly begged, setting aside everything she was doing and taking out her rapier. It was then the boar charged, forcing her to dash backwards. The imminent danger made her feet a blur, catching on a loose stone that sent the would be murderer crashing to the ground. "Ack!" she cried out, hitting and tumbling away swiftly. The massive hooves of the boar slammed down close to where her head had once been.

The tough earth in this particular area tore her robes and scraped at her skin, the pain sharp but tantalizing. "Oh yes, you will please my lord." She murmured, dark green eyes sparkling with a sudden life. With a ducking lunge she stabbed at the beasts hooves, the massive boar rearing back to trample her though she was ready for such things. Chakra pounded her secondary circulatory system, carrying to her legs the power to move faster than normal. It was involuntary, instinct kicking in, taking over far before she knew precisely what was going on.

It took a moment to get control The sudden tightening of those muscles but she managed with a wicked smile. The dash backwards was roughly five meters, just barely out of range of this massive creature. But the unexpected happened, the tremor of the footfall shook the ground so much she stumbled, sprawling out of her shunshin and eating a face full of dirt. That was shocking enough, the humiliation! The sheer audacity of a lower creature like this daring to show her disrespect! She was up in fractions of a second, her shoulders heaving, tossing the Rapier aside and pulling out her double bladed scythe. With her legs primed, she flickered forward into danger.

The slashes where precise and brutal, hacking through hide and flesh, clinking against bone as she went into a rage. The boar swung his head down towards her, wicked tucks aimed to gouge her inside. This was it, the moment where she had to take advantage of its head hanging so low. A twirl and a slash connected with a tusk, pushing her along the ground. With the new momentum she flew backwards, he feet catching the ground and taking on the motion all by herself. Her body became formless, gliding over the ground, removing itself form one place and placing her atop the large boulder that she would have become a bug splat across.

"Hail Jashin..." She muttered, spinning her scythe and slamming it against the stone. The first shunshin carried her forward, off the rock, to the beast and bringing the scythe across snout and bristled fur. The boar bellowed and slashed at her, the next shunshin carrying her away, safely out of reach and then another back to her previous position. "Die." The words that leaked from between her teeth seethed with nothing but rage, contempt and ill intentions. The lithe muscle of her arms straining against her pale skin, bulging slightly while she and the beast shared a snarl of hatred for one another.

Ooo, scary.

Of course, it's related to the evil religion, so I'm not surprised.

The two tussled over and over, falling and standing, charging, roaring out their primal spirits. Hecate was no one trick pony, and the feeling of chakra had left her legs tingling,unused to molding chakra throughout her body. She was used to raw strength, her muscles tightening, bulging, rippling, pronouncing their power to the world as she pushed back against the animal and began to pivot along its body. These were short flickers, mere steps at first. She couldnt get a good enough footing to push off so she could use her speed to her advantage.

The boar was almost..sensing her needs, pressuring her immensely with this lose range assault. It bled profusely much to her approval but it was short lived. Such a large animal would take long to bleed out less she wounded him greatly. As it shifted to keep eyes on her she took lightning fast steps, her body blurring in and out of focus as she took these short bursts of speed to keep her one step ahead of the boar. The look in its eyes shone more that bestial rage, but a cunning that was slightly unnerving. Her feet slipped slightly as the muscles burned from this over stimulation of nerves.

This weakness was detrimental to her ability to fight this thing on the already uneven ground she was on. If fact, the boar bellowed and swung its head violently, attempting to eviscerate her. Instinct kicked it]n and she flickered around its flank instinctively, flailing an arm as sh teetered off balance, head swimming with spots and circles while she sung her scythe in undisciplined strikes. The boar was appeased f course, charging her fiercely, her dulling vision giving her enough perspective to arc around him slightly.

With a deft swing of its head the massive thing sent her flying, crashing up against the rocks and taking away her breath. Nothing had ever hurt her, drawn her blood or bruised the skin of this sadist. he pain was all too real, it burned within her, it sent spikes of anger and rage through her system. Hecate was up despite her minor injury, chest heaving, her eyes blank with rage while she charged in so openly. The body flicker carried her half way around its bulk, and out of the shunshin she slammed her scythe into a space between ribs.

The boar reared back and let loose a roar, exposing the tender underbelly. Hecate took full advantage. Hooking the scythe in deep and shunshunning around beneath it. The blade tore ragged gouges in its undersides, innards and blood spilling around, the twisted laughter of Hecate ringing out as she gutted the animal mercilessly. The pain was but a dull ache now. She was content with making it suffer, the dark red life fluids dampening her hair and clothes, dripping down her scythe, the last noise of the beast being...pained? Sehe ended her flickering with an abrupt halt, ripping her scythe free of its stomach and watching it topple over.

"Jashin will feast greatly tonight." She regard with a small smile, the gory scene eerily quite as the tall female stood alone next to the boar. In the distance more bellows could be heard, the trees shook and the ground thundered. "Glory to Jashin!" She cried and assumed her power stance.

The world worked in strange ways, and as such she had been beckoned by something or another to purchase a few items. The boars seemed to have went on their way, which was fine. She had work to do. It began with two yoyo's, butterfly ones, that she strung about cluelessly. The wire she used bit into her skin, and though she didnt mind blood, it would be terrible to die before serving Jashin. She immediately tore along the hem of her old robe, having purchased a new one, but kept the old one in tack enough to wear like a very revealing dress. With the cloth she began o wrap her fingers, but the finished result was more like a cestus.

No good. She started over, wrapping each finger then moving on to the next digit, wrapping from the first knuckle to the last. IT was...slightly better, but with the way the cloth was connected, it left so little wiggle room for her fingers to work and just from looking at these toys she played with, that was not going to fly here. However when using her scythe to cut the cloth between her fingers, she found it slightly easier to move. It was she the string began cutting away at the cloth, that she took friction into account.

If she wrapped the cloth in a way that followed the motion of the yoyo's there would be reduced friction, and that meant less shredding. That was a concept she could live with, swiftly untangling her fingers and playing with the cloth strips that she did have. They were uneven, the way she had cut them, and needed a little modifying to make sure each strip fit each finger perfectly. Without it the slack would catch and all her hard work would have been for naught.

"One, two, three..." She counted how many times the thread went in revolutions around her fingers so she would know precisely how much to twirl about her finger later on, just in case. This thread couldnt last forever, surely, and maybe it was possible for her to simply buy gauntlets. "maybe..." This was the first time in awhile she wasnt on and on about Jashin, loosening and tightening the cloth at various points to see if she could move her fingers well enough to not get mad.

"There we go." Grinning broadly, she played with the padding for a moment then reached for a yoyo strung with ninja wire. She had experience with wire from long ago growing up, he father set traps and such for the wild life that threatened then at times. She rolled the yoyo down her finger, it gliding easily down her finger and then the string, bouncing back up immediately. It didn't hurt, that was good, the cloth held, that was good, and ever several flicks of the wrist later the bearings held, eliciting a very triumphant smile.

Meanwhile she decided to look for another bushel of deadly night shade. It had long green leaves that looked like razor blades, even distinct little flowers that were purple in hue. Those stood out greatly, and even the berries were easy to notice, little purple pellets that she meant to collect from her earlier find. That was quite alright though, she did mind, and form her position of sitting and looking about, she had a pretty good range of sight.

There was a measure of success to her actions though she barely got the mechanics of the toy down. she had bought this as a means of sheer entertainment but the more she flicked her wrist and played with the toy, and the more times the heavy metal item impacted the ground, she began to wonder just what exactly had possessed a human being to create something like this. It was viable enough that one could make a weapon out of this, and so that became her goal. Hecate became fluent with the flicking of her wrist, working out her tendons in one hand to be able to use this item without any hindrance.

When the muscles in her wrist began to ache and stiffen her performance began to suffer, shooting pains that locked up her muscles and forced her to literally throw her arms out to popped the join of her elbow where it had locked up. The result was a 'sleeper' technique that made her stare for a long moment. Could this be used for battle purposes? A tug of the wrist brought it coiling back up and when the dense metal hit her hand it hurt, the delicious pain shooting through her body. This could work.

Something more elaborate might test how long the yoyo can remain in this 'sleeper' position, maybe to the point where she could mess with the string mid extension and alter its path for attacks. For now though she simply preformed the sleeper and twisted the strings around her fingers, holding it in a way where the yoyo swung in a small haven of space she had made in the middle and smiled to herself like she had actually accomplished something. "The cradle." She dubbed it and continued onward with her training in this regard.

Next was something she wasnt entirely confident in doing but she preformed it anyways. A quick wrist flick and the yoyo was in sleeper mode, drilling against the ground, kicking up dirt slightly as it hung silently, waiting for her command. Next she tugged it up and quick flung it down once more, catching the string on her finger and whipping it around her head in a flinging motion that felt like it would snap the wires. However they stayed connected and soon the yoyo snapped back to her wrist like a loyal pet.

Now was the chance to show out though and though she had absolutely no idea what she was doing, she tried it anyways. The sleeper first, another fluid flicking of the wrist. The yoyo sailed down but she left it to hover off the surface of the hard packed dirt, bouncing slightly at its end, beginning its travel back up to her hand suddenly to which she swung around in a quick circle and shifted back into a rocking the cradle technique. This was thrilling! Her bright green eyes focused intently on this toy for just a second.

She then looked around herself once more, looking for another Deadly Nightshade, something to give it away. These never grew in clusters oddly enough, only seeming to grow in spaced out patterns. She walked and played with her toy, glancing around, praying and hoping, saw like green leaves, purple flowers, purple berries, the plant wasnt even that tall either so she was sure to run into it eventually, maybe even step on it.

With all these tricks now the string of the yoyo was getting uncomfortably tight around her digit, the circulation beginning to thin around her finger and it swelled slightly. Not exactly something she had planned for, even when she glared down at it and pulled at the string that was wound so tight, she couldn't remove it. "This is not acceptable!" Tugging the line slightly, the main string that is, only managing to pull it tighter until she was unable to remove it by conventional means. Great.

Losing all sense of poise she flailed her hand about, the yoyo flying about on the end of its rope, the other was lined with wire and she was happy she had decided to not try using it instead. In fact the thought that simply flinging around the yoyo for damage crossed her mind, but surely the yoyo would break if there was no way to reinforce its mass with something like..maybe chakra? That couldnt work here though, no, she wasnt a chakra molder, and without that she was doomed to pretty much improvise, which was exciting in its own right.

Attention had to be focused at this point, flailing would solve nothing, it only managed to make things worse. instead she focused on the loop that was caught around her finger, pulling at the clench and working at the tight knot. It was time consuming and entirely dashing on the thought that maybe this could be used in a battle. Using her nails she slowly worked the knot loose, hissing in a pained kind of pleasure, working is to the point she was finally able to get the string off her finger, to which she glared at the string for a long moment before deciding to find a more conventional method of use from this thing.

Rubber bands might work in some ways, especially if used correctly. It was..slow progress at first. Hell she was lucky to have jump one rubber band on her to attempt this new technique with. Is that what this was though? A technique? She pondered that while she looped it around her thumb and then around the rest of her fingers, stopping at her pinky. It felt...uncomfortable to say the least, and when she stretched out her hand the rubber band slid down along her wrist. No this wasnt working and the frustration made her tear it off and nearly snap it, but she only had this one, and the thought of losing to a rubber band was not acceptable.

Her eyes locked onto the elastic while she thoughts, looping it around her thumb, twisting it slightly to make it a loop around her thumb. She then stretched it out across the back of her knuckles, moving it about to her pinky and then twisting it around it as well. It was a long shot, but she put the string around her middle fingers and tightened it around the knuckle where he rubber band settled. It would work, a few test runs, casual flicks of the wrist, a sleeper, cradle, around the world and then back to his hand. The loop was tight now, and when she whipped off the band the string came off too. 'Finally."

Turning her attention to the ground once more, she was up and at it immediately. This Deadly Nightshade was proving useful and plentiful. The red flowers were proving to be useful and when she looked around the ground the thing she was hoping would stand out were purple flowers. From those flowers grew very small and simple purple berries. She rolled to her feet and swept the ground with her hands, pushing aside small bushes, looking around for something that resembled what it was she was looking for.
