Weed Removal: Her Reign Begins!! [EVENT]

[DJ Loki]

Houkou:

Houkou dash forward as Zeke finished his handseal. The old dog was strong, but all he was concerned with was attack, attack, attack. Perhaps he underestimated him, or perhaps he felt his Sharigan would keep him prepared for everything that could possibly come his way. Regardless, it didn't matter. The Old Dog stepped forward with his hand on his sheathed blade. Zeke did not attempt to dodge evade or counter. Instead he went to stop it completely. The Same had that had just finished forming the seals jutted out with a palm strike to slam the blade back into it's sheath, just as it was being drawn. His hand moved down along the side of the blade and grabbed the back of his hand and sheath, preventing him from drawing his blade again. He lifted his arms and into air and pivoted and flipped the Uchiha, "Fall..." Zeke whispered as he flipped him onto his back into a bottomless pit, Finishing the sheath overcoming technique.

The technique he prepared was the illusionary Pit Figment. The seals were fast for such a high level technique, but it was no surprise considering that he was a master of the figment Perception. It made the technique a bit easier to resist, but he only needed the old Uchiha to feel the effects of vertigo, for just a moment, to have the desired effect. He had intended to set the genjutsu as Houkou charged, but the sudden swift motions, put a bit of a wrench in his plans. The Shunshin that he preformed pushed him just out of the edge of where the pit would form. This was the reason that he took the extra bit of motion to rotate himself in a way to allow him to flip the uchiha into the formed pit. This would lessen the fluidity of the technique, and possibly give him time to escape the hold, but the reward far out weighed the risk.  Once Houkou had been put on his back, Zeke drew his blade and stabbed down aiming for Houkou's left eye.

Emi:

He was getting no where as his two targets seemed content with remaining hidden into the shadows. It was then he was struck by a needle. He grunted as he lurched forward. the attack struck true, but it seemed his sturdy body was more than capable of absorbing most of the damage. When he turned to face the direction the needle came from, and before he could get a look at the thrower before he went back into the shadows, he was struck from the other side by a powerful Pound Attack from the three Sword style. This was Salihn waiting for her own moment to strike. He turned to see her standing there just outside of his field of vector arrows. He was struck but the blow didn't seem to do much damage to him either. Akeno was known as the Unstoppable for a reason.

He started to chuckle as it became clear what his strategy was. He was going to out last them, keep them at a distance and wait for them to make a mistake. he would not be able to follow all their stealthy movements, but he wouldn't need to. It only took one mistake, and he would fortify himself in anticipation for that moment.

Swift as he was, it would seem that his opponent was prepared for him, but not nearly enough for one such as the Demon Dog of Kusa. An intense gaze would fall upon the man, the man who had made no move to look from him, although it did not matter either way. His Hypnotic Gaze would be upon the man, the intense stare that could wither the will of the strongest, making the man much more vulnerable to mental attacks (-3 Will [Zeke]). Even though it happened in a split second, Houkou did not allow the man to know that it had happened, the memory wiped of such an event even occurring and still occurring, so as not to dissuade the actions of his opponent. Houkou allowed the blade to be stopped as he had seen the path of this movement before hand, but simultaneously he would move his own right hand, his finger a blade of a sort, darting forth and into the path of Zeke’s concentrated eyes and aiming toward them; ensuring that in that split second Zeke would have to see it or be blinded. As the hand moved up his hilt to his own hand, taking its own amount of time, Houkou’s finger would be in that line of sight, his right hand having been free, due to his being left handed. Due to their positioning, Zeke would have hold of Houkou’s left hand, the hand that would use the blade, while allowing his right hand to be free as he would want to set up for the shoulder flip into the illusion pit.

Houkou’s right hand, the free hand, would be darting in from the side simultaneously as this occurred, free from restraints and appearing from Zeke’s peripheral left swiftly, aiming directly for his eye. Zeke would merely need to notice the finger for the Sharingan’s power to take hold, the power of the Sharingan having charged that very finger, the medium for his gaze now. In order to avoid this very attack, Zeke would have to abandon his attack completely, or attempt a very ineffective awkward throw off balance due to head position. Once Zeke would notice the finger, he would be struck by the first of two rapid fire Gaze attacks, meant to break the young man and end this fight. The same effect as the spinning Sharingan would take hold through that very finger, manifesting a likeness to the Entrancing Gaze ability that could hypnotize Zeke, causing him to be lost completely until he could break such a spell. The man would drop any weapons he might be holding in his hands, to include Houkou’s left hand, and be left entranced and staring at that very finger; to which Houkou would bring the second effect to bare.

A weight would come to crash down upon the man before him, caught staring at his finger, focused so intently and able to only stand there quietly, he would feel the full weight of that power to make him bow before the Uchiha. That powerful gaze would burst forth from that medium of a finger with an impressive wave of force, a power to cow his foe, and prostrate that foe before him. “You. Will. Bow.” Zeke would be forced to bow before Houkou, falling to his knees unable to secure weapon or defense, should his mind prove too weak to withstand that glare (Roll Will again if save is successful). Otherwise he would not be allowed to approach Houkou, and the Uchiha would kick the man’s weapon away, sending it to the other side of the room, disarming him effectively and putting himself at the advantage.

At this range, it would be simple, as Houkou used his remaining movements in order to launch Dragon Strikes in a webwork toward his opponent, swift and efficient, near simultaneous to keep his opponent from evasion. All slashes would be at a diagonal, with two high toward the forehead coming from the right to left and one from left to right. One wide on each side at a steep angle aimed with the bottom of that slash tip toward the knees, two low to mimic the high but at the hips, and the final being the center vertical from crotch to two feet above the head. Reaction time would be slowed for his opponent, locked in those Gen until just as he attacked, forcing a difficulty unheard of in dodging his strikes.

-TECHNIQUES IN ACTION-

SPOILER: Click to show

Hypnotic Stare
Rank: "B"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: A stare that reduces the target's Will while making the target forget the user being affected.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: A Sharingan based technique. A user can focus their stare on 1 creature within 7 meters + 6 meters per Class Level as a weaving movement. That creature takes a -2 penalty on Will Saves. This penalty changes to -3 at "C" Class. A user can maintain their stare against only 1 opponent at a time; it remains in effect until the user stares at a new target, the opponent dies, the opponent moves farther than the range, or the user falls unconscious or dies. The user can remove the memory of their stare from the target's mind; the creature does not remember that it was affected (nor does it realize that it is currently being affected) unless the user allows it. The hypnotic stare is a psychic effect, and relies more on the Uchiha's focus than the target's Observation of their stare. It cannot be avoided in the same ways a gaze attack can. The Uchiha can use this ability even while blinded, but must succeed at a Verify Difficult Observation check to do so. Staring at a creature requires the Uchiha's focus, so if they use their gaze attack or similar ability, user must target the subject of their hypnotic stare or voluntarily end the stare. The penalties from multiple Uchihas' stares do not stack. This is a mind-affecting effect.
Limit: Must be an Uchiha. Must know Sharingan.
[-3 Will(Target)]

Majestic Stare
Rank: "S"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: The weight of the user's stare cows the enemies, forcing them to cower and crawl before them.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Whenever a creature fails its Save against the user's Imperious Stare, that creature cannot attempt to move any closer to the user for 1 round, functioning as Antipathy (Compulsion GenJutsu). In addition, whenever a creature fails its Save against the user's Imperious Stare by 5 or more, it immediately prostates before the user, granting it the prone condition and preventing it from attempting to stand from prone for 1 round. These effects cannot be applied against more than 1 creature at a time, even if the user has a means of simultaneously targeting multiple creatures with their Hypnotic Stare.
Limit: Must be an Uchiha. Must know Imperious Stare.

Sharingan
Rank: "C", "B", "A"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: The Sharingan is a special eye that grants the user a broad form of abilities, and unlocks techniques dedicated to the Sharingan.
Special: Handseals
Drawback: ---
Description: Picture The Sharingan is the most feared ability of the Uchiha Clan. This unique ability manifests in a clan member's eyes, and while some might call it a genetic aberration of deformity, the Uchiha have used this gift to devastating effect. In some members this ability will only let them anticipate or predict the path of an attack. The user activates this ability as a "C" Rank weaving movement that does not provoke an opportunity of attack. Each Rank learned the user gains a Tomoe (maximum 3). User gains a +10 insight bonus to Investigate, Observation, Reading Lips, and Forgery (to copy writers) checks per Tomoe. User gains a +10 insight bonus to Sense Motive against Feints per Tomoe. User gains a +2 insight bonus to Intimidate per Tomoe. User gains a +2 insight bonus to Will Saves against GenJutsu and Mind-Affecting Jutsus per Tomoe. User gains a +2 insight bonus to Attack Damage per Tomoe. User gains a +2 insight bonus to Dodge per Tomoe. The user can concentrate for a move-movement to gain the ability to "See Chakra" for as long as the user concentrates, plus 5 rounds. The Sharingan eye costs chakra per round to maintain. If the user is blinded, user gains none of the benefits of the Sharingan. Unless caught flat-footed, immobilized, or feinted against, the character cannot lose Minor Defenses while the Sharingan is Active. Deactivating this is a free movement. When the user unlocks the 3rd Tomoe they gain the ability Glare. User gains a +20 bonus to Observation to detect GenJutsu techniques or see Chakra Activity (see See Chakra). The Difficulty Saves of a character's Eye Techniques increases by +1 no named bonus while their Sharingan is active.
Limit: Must be an Uchiha.

Ephemeral
Rank: "A"
Skill: Supplementary
Effect: This technique allows the user to place their opponents in Gaze attacks by using their finger as a medium.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Some targets have learned to avert their eyes from the Uchiha. This can be detrimental to the user. Uchiha have devised a way to perform their Gaze attacks by creating a Jutsu Enhancement technique dedicated to Gaze attacks. By pointing their finger at a target, if the target sees the finger, they are subject to the Gaze attack. Jutsu Handseal/Chakra Increase: 1/2 Rank.
Limit: Must be an Uchiha. Must have mastered Uchiha.

Entrancing Gaze
Rank: "B"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: A gaze attack meant to fascinate the target.

Description: A Sharingan based technique. Range of technique is 7 meters + 6 meters per Class Level. Target is 1 creature. Duration is Concentration (up to 5 rounds per Class Level). Will Save to Negate. A gaze attack. The target must make a Will save to avoid becoming fascinated for the duration of the technique, staring blankly into the user's wildly spinning Sharingan eye. The fascinated subject drops anything it is holding and takes no movement unless threatened. While fascinated the user gains a +10 bonus to Presence Skill checks made against the subject. The fascinated subject can make a Will save every round to break the effect. The user can concentrate for up to 3 additional rounds after disabling their Sharingan (or up to the technique's maximum duration). This Technique may be applied after Hypnotic Stare.
Limit: Must be an Uchiha. Must know Sharingan (3rd Tomoe). Must know Pattern Perception.

Gazing GenJutsu

Effect: A jutsu enhancement technique that allows the user to perform a GenJutsu as a gaze attack.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: A Sharingan based technique. A variation of the Still Jutsu, GenJutsu is released as a Gaze Attack. Instead of using Handseals to perform a Jutsu, the user uses their Sharingan as a medium. This Jutsu Enhancement only affects GenJutsu. Gazing GenJutsu cannot be reduced by Efficient Jutsu Enhancement Technique, Easy Jutsu Enhancement Technique and similar Jutsus. Handseal/Chakra Increase: 1 Rank.
Limit: Must be an Uchiha. Must know Sharingan (3rd Tomoe).

Convincing Illusions (Pattern)
Rank: "B"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: The user has learned to create truly compelling Illusions.

Effect: User takes a step back and cuts the air in front of them through a dimensional rift in a sphere shape.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Picture The basis of Gosei Ryuu techniques. The user stands with their sword in the sheathe. Grabbing the handle of the sword near the Tsuba, the user thereafter steps forward with the front leg while unsheathing the blade in a horizontal attacking motion across the body. So swift is this technique that it is akin to a "flash", taking no movements to perform. When striking, the user is able to use air to slice enemies, focusing a current of wind, to the point where it takes on a sharp edge, which the user launches at foes. Upon sheathing the sword, the user must sacrifice a movement to do so. Depending on the user’s Class Level depends on the distance of the strike.
•"D" Class - Travels 10 Meters
•"C" Class - Travels 15 Meters
•"B" Class - Travels 20 Meters
•"A" Class - Travels 30 Meters
•"S" Class - Travels 40 Meters

This technique is capable of destroying Overview Items as a power attack by sacrificing 2 movements for a 1 Movement strike. This technique may be performed without a sheathe so long as they use the same motion as if using one.
Limit: Must Learn from a Master of Burēdono Kenseijin, Must know all Stances.

The strategy

T

he fact that the Nara didn't seem to care that much about the senbons and even appeared to be smug about it, Emi wondered how durable he actually was. His supplies of senbons were far from out, but he didn't want to allow the Nara to be so pleased with himself. So when he had launched the 10 senbon he thought that he had understood how the opponents eyes moved. Emi then threw a hiraishin kunai towards the opponents blind spot.

When the kunai was within a foot away from the Nara, one of Emi's clones used hiraishin to reach it and immediately tried to punch towards the lower back of the Nara. If it hit correctly it would force immobility into the body while still dealing a large trauma to the area affected. While everything were unfolding, Emi just sat tight in the shadows and observed what happened, not only to learn more about the opponent, but also to not reveal that the clone was not in fact the original.

Roll Results

Houkou:

Yuri stood there and watched the action unfold as it seemed like Tesseria was content to watch the action unfold as well. Did she expect her minions to win? Silly woman, there were several advantages she held being the Kusakage, and one such thing was the mountains of profiles and information she had on all of her ninja. It was not hard to figure out who had defected, and Yuri knew the personal that she brought with her, was superior to anything that Tesseria had. "Hmmm... an illusion swordsman against the Demon Dog of Kusa? Foolish..." Yuri said with a smirk to Tesseria, who eyes widened when she looked over at Houkou. The Demon Dog was a missing Nin, why would he come back? Why would he come back for her? She gripped her fist tightly.

Zeke heard what Yuri had said, but before he had a chance to properly process what that meant he was already under the sway of his Entrancing Gaze Technique performed through his finger. Zeke's grip loosened and attack halted as his eyes seemed to be mesmerized by his finger. The Uchiha commanded the man to bow, but it seemed his will was still powerful enough to resist the order, "I will not bow to you... dog!!" The man struggled to say as he was still mesmerized by the initial genjutsu. His hands dropped to his side, and in his mind did he just now understand his folly. He was too proud of his genjutsu ability, he had not expected Yuri to have some one like the Demon in her camp. Maybe... he-. Before he could finish his thought he was shredded by the Dragon Strikes.

Yuri looked on a little grossed out as the man's body seemed to be in one piece... barely, but the amount of blood his lost was a clear sign that he was dead or would be dead very soon. Tesseria nearly growled, "No!! Impossible!! Why are YOU here, with HER?!!!?!" Tesseria shouted as she pulled out a Benehime Sword. "All these powerful warriors at your beck and call...why do you all follow this weakling?!!! I'll kill her!! What she has should be MINE!!!" Vlad was now sitting on two dead bodies both of which had blossomed a bush of roses. He was covered in blood, none of which was his own. "She's plenty strong... plus she's not bat shit crazy." Vlad said simply as he lit a cigarette.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Emi:

The Mountain of a Nara, scanned the area as he senbon flew towards him. He was caught unawares by the initial attack, and while his sturdy fame could take much damage he was not incline to let the damage stack up. He would go to block what he could with his bulking armored forearm, while taking the damage from the others. He would hardly notice the appearance of the kunia as in landed in his blind spot, but what he would notice was the appearance of this Clone out of no where, "Impossible!!" He shouted, as he was sure there was no way that they could have gotten through his make shift shadow barrier. It must have been some sort of teleportation technique... could this person blink further than Salihn? Impossible.

As his mind rapidly tried to process what could have happened several of his shadow arrows that he had detached from his body began to move in reflexively to defend himself. As the Arrows move in so did Salihn, her nimble movements completely silent as he seemed far to overwhelmed with the sudden collapsing of his defense to be able to handle the presence of a third party. That was the reality of the ninja world. 3 Ninja of similar skill and power, if two of those ninja teamed up against the 3rd, the 3rd would stand no chance. Salihn shot forward, drawing her swords while one was tossed into her mouth. Once the arrows had receded enough for her to be in range, she vanished with a Blink teleportation. She appeared from out of Akeno's shadow coming from his front.

Akeno looked to too see Salihn there posed to strike. "Dammit..." Is all his could muster as he went to shield himself from Salihn's strike, but his body stopped it's motion as the strike to his lower back connected. This left his front completely exposed, as Salihn whispered, "Dragon's Nest, Strangle..." She ripped through the soft exposed neck, using the opening provided by Emi to it's fullest. She jumped through the attack providing more power to her slash as she wanted to apply as much damage as possible to make sure that sturdy body was vanquished. She landed some 10 meters away after making her attack as she sheathed her blades, "May your soul be damned to hell for your treachery, but your body nourish the soil. I pray your blood is less tainted than your convictions." As the last blade of sheathed Akeno's body would fall to the ground and his head would roll in the opposite direction.

"Thank you, He would have been much more annoying to deal with alone." Salihn said as she gave Emi a respectful bow. Just as Akeno's head would roll, Zeke would also meet his end. all that seemed was left, was Aisu, and Tesserai. Emi and Salihn would finish just in time to see her episode.

"This was all a bit anticlimactic wasn't it?" Yuri said with a smile on her face. "Sooo is this the part where the Kage takes out the big bad, and proves herself? Because I'm all for that." Yuri smiled as she continued to mock and act like all of this was a game. She knew the more she mad light of the situation, the more unhinged and upset Tesserai would become. There was no doubt that she was powerful, stronger than Yuri was at the moment, but Yuri was still confident that she could take her... alone.

[An'ei Sekitan]

Houkou kicked a chunk of Zeke’s face aside, then bent down to pluck the blade from the floor, making sure the grab the sheath as well. This could be a good present for Ko. Sheathing Zeke’s blade, he would turn toward the woman who was the leader in all this, this Tesserai, and his own Kusakage, watching them watch each other. Nothing was said at first, so Houkou began to move forward toward the woman, the rebel, prepared to murder her in the most gruesome way he possibly could. But he was halted by the words of the Kusakage, words that spoke that she would like to handle Tesserai herself, although they did not say that outright, he could tell the hint was there. Damnit.

“I suppose this is that part, Kusakage,” Houkou would say, taking up position behind and to her left, his right hand resting on the hilt of Dog Star, while his left hand held Zeke’s katana. I had been sloppy. Took too long to kill him. Annoying. Houkou was content to wait until given further instruction, whatever that instruction might be.

[jintai]

Jintai felt a little tense as he still stood guard outside of the building.  It was slightly intimidating knowing such high level ninja were inside the building and duking it out like that. In all reality if he were in there he would most likely end up being a body shield for the kage which wasn't all that bad. Someone as beautiful as that just had to be worth dying for. Despite all this thought and worry on his mind Kiru kept a straight face and continued his guard duty. That was his only job and he should try and maintain his position. For all he knew anyone could come and try to escape this way and he would be forced to cut them down with his blade. No hesitation and leave them tattered in pieces. Just the thought of all his superiors seeing him slice cleanly through a human body was enticing all on it's own.


However killing woman was always distasteful. Well a cute one at that, whenever it comes down to it Kiru always got over it. He was a killer after all and it was bad business to actually let your emotions get into to play. Emotions were just play things in the grand scheme of things. Either way he just really wanted this mission to be over already. He allowed nothing more than a small sight and nothing more than that gripping his blade even harder.

[~Emi~]

The boss battle has begun

T

he swift reaction from the grass shinobi was most impressive, but he got a little disappointed as the opponent fell for the maneuver. The boy did however walk out from the shadows as the body hit the floor and allowed his form to be visible for the naked eye once more. His gaze wandered over the body for a brief moment, only to see if there were a ruse. As the grass ninja then thanked him, Emi smiled back at her and gently responded with a low bow.

I must say that you have earned my respect, I couldn't ask for a better teamwork.

There were however not more time to exchange pleasantries as it appeared like the main battle was going to begin. So he walked over to the body and pulled out his senbons and then those that were around on the floor and walls along with the kunai. Then he cleared the area for the fighters and hunch down towards the ground.

3'000'000 on that the kusakage will manage doing it herself. Anyone on?

Emi grinned towards the group. It was obvious that the kage would want to deal with the last one alone and would be refusing assistance, so anyone taking the bet would most likely do so in spite of her.

[DJ Loki]

Houkou would pick up the sword and noticed that it was very well made. Not as well madde as his own, but still an Impressive piece of craftsmenship. It was a Pristine katana blade, created from Deed Breaker Metal.

"Really? Huh... I would have sworn you'd jump at the chance to take her down. Curious... ah well." Yuri said as she shrugged, "No one interfere... Houkou, relieve Aisu there of his extremities if he tries to interfere. Try and keep him alive though, I need to make an example out of these 2." Tesserai held the words coming from Yuri's mouth as will then Aisu, they both looked to be enraged. It mattered not that the others had met their end, the two of them would be enough to handle the rest. Especially once the Kusakage was down, they would truly see the error of their ways. Tesserai stepped down an as she did so Yuri saw the Y'la spirit beginning to appear behind Tesserai. "You have no Idea of what I can do."

"I see... so you have one too... no wonder you're so confident."

"TOOO?!!" Tesserai said in a rage as she activated her Byakugan and saw Mr. Nette floating upside down over Yuri's head. "You bitch... is your existence to steal everything that makes me special?" As she stepped forward the blood scattered on the ground entered into her blade. Tesserai charged forward Yuri began to casually walk forward with a annoyed look on her face. Tesserai jutted the Benehime out in front of her, and Yuri jutted out her fingers. Thee Benihime shot out an orb of blood at the Kusakage, and Yuri saw the make up of the attack, the way every strain of chakra weaved together... and then severed it with a swipe of her hand. The orb of blood split around her and Yuri sighed, "You should know better. You'll never touch me with stuff like that."

Yuri smirked as Tesserai growled under her voice. It was true should things was pointless again a Hyuuga, especially a trained one. But how did she come upon these skills, she had never even left the village as far as she knew. Tesserai threw her blade at Yuri who dodged out of the way, with a simple head tilt. Tesserai was becoming unhinged sloppy. That was good, but even in that state she would still under estimate Yuri with was even better. The rebellion leader knew that her usual standard would do nothing against Yuri, their fighting style mirrored each-other, be that on purpose or coincidence it didn't matter. All of her plant jutsu would either be countered or be severed by Yuri's Jyuuken, the element of surprise in regards to her Y'la was ruined as it seemed sh had one of her own.

She was indeed much stronger than she had previously given her credit. But she was still stronger and more skilled. She had learned everything available to a Branch Member, even if she managed to to find someone to train she had only been training seriously for a couple of months, Tesserai knew this would give her the advantage. She got into a Jyuuken Fighting stance, and Yuri got into her own. Tesseria struck out with a series or blow with her index in middle fingers, Yuri parried and dodged her blows gracefully, and countered with her own. However, compared with way Tesserai moved, which was precise, fundamentally sound, almost machine like. Yuri's motions were, unorthodox, but not ineffective, their were slight hitches in her movements and approaches, like innate feints. Jyuuken jabs coming from awkward area's in positions.

These motions were jarring to a long time practitioner of Jyuuken. It timing of everything was just a split second faster or slower than she was accustomed when fighting another user. It looked like a wild dance, but she could not say it didn't have a certain beauty to it, nor that it was inferior to the way she had been trained. Before she could actuatly figure out exactly what she would looking at, something else caught her off guard, a spinning palm thrust from Yuri transitioned into a round house kick. This kickwas accompanied by the sounds of revving, and compressed air thorns shot out of her ATs. Tesseria barely had time to dodge recieving several cuts along her body. As she pushed forward to attack Yuri send out a wind funnel with a front kick, that sent Terresai spiraling back into her throne.

Tessarai hit it so hard that the stone in which it was made from shattered where her back collided into it. Yuri skated forward in a spin, "Die..." She said as she preformed an aerial spinning kick, that shot out a multitude of compressed air thorns. Shockingly the thorns missed their target, or more like they were redirected before they made contact with Tesserai, who began to laugh..."Self Taught... HAHAHAHAHAHAH you gotta be fuck'in kidding me!!! You're self taught?" That was the only way she could explain the orthodox yet fluid movements that perfectly meld with those weird boots of hers. "More or Less..." Yuri said with a smirk. "My ass more or less... how?"

"Father had notes on Jyuuken... basic stuff... stances, principles, stuff that any branch member like yourself would have access to. Only I didn't stop there. I experimented, paid attention to those boring ass principles, and filled in the dots." Yuri was understating it a bit as she would be considered a master of Jyuuken by this point. Yuri looked at Tesseria as she saw her blows were diverted away by the Y'la. She smirked as while that was an annoying skill that she possessed there was a limit to how many times she could do it. She was sure the same held true for Tesserai, who at the moment was suffering a state of hysterical laughter. She was clearly become more unraveled.

She glared at Yuri, "Enough Screwing around." She shouted as the air around exploded as she unless 6 gates. "Oh shit..." Yuri said, as Tesserai, shot out from the throne destroying it. She vanished and appeared behind Yuri, thrusting forward with her fingers. As her fingers came forward a wall of paper would began to protected the Kusakage. "You think that'll stop me?!!!" Tesserai shouted as she sliced through the paper like butter using her Jyuuken technique, as she sliced through the wall of Paper Yuri would no longer be there as the paper fluttered around Tesserai. All of it filled with chakra making it difficult even for her Byakugan to track all the movements, as Yuri used the paper to hide her Soul Shunt. Behind Tesserai, "Not at all." Yuri sent out a palm thrust, as she did so the paper would part out of the way revealing Yuri's location.

Tesserai was struck by a Wind Palm that sent her soaring up into the air. She composed herself flipped and then while using the air itself as a foot hold, sprang back down at Yuri. This time she struck out with a kick. The sudden change in attack style and the speed she exhibited while gated was too much to keep track of. But Tesserai's kick would sail pass Yuri missing inexplicably, but Yuri, Tesserai and even Houkou would understand why. As her Kick missed, she crashed to the ground, and Yuri was already positioning herself into a Jyuuken stance. As she hit the ground Tesserai felt a jolt of chakra rush against her, "You are in the field of my 8 trigrams." Yuri whispered as she remembered her father doing so long ago, Tesserai went to turn and saw her stance, "Bullshit!..."

She muttered with disbelief in her eyes, "2 palms..." Yuri muttered, but the Jyuuken Strikes that should have connected missed, "You know Houkou told me something when we first met." 2 more strikes went out faster than the first two. "He basically said, that thing we do... is a neat trick, but relying on it, will get you killed." 4 more strikes went out, as Tesserai seemingly in a panic was barely getting off her feet, as the blows kept missing. "It makes things miss... but can you do it... 64 times?" Tesserai's eyes widened as the blows kept increasing by the time Yuri hit 16 strikes, Tesserai was spent, and was assaulted by the full ferocity of Yuri's blows. Her hand speed quickened her unorthodox technique began to look more and more like a graceful dance as her Regalia made her appear as if she was gliding across the room as the Paper fluttered behind her.

"8 Trigrams 64 palms..." She said calmly as she the last blow was struck. Yuri pulled away her hand, and Tesserai dropped to her knees, as a large sum of her chakra points where sealed, as well as the exhaustion she was now feeling from her use of gates. "Impossible..." Tesserai said still in shock, "Your thinking is limited. I taught myself this in 2 weeks. There was nothing stopping you from doing the same but self pity. Tesserai, hunched over seemingly defeated. "You know I modeled my fighting style after you... I made some tweaks here in there, but I thought you were the pinnacle of what a Hyuuga-Ikebana could be. I wanted to learn from you. Imagine my surprise 2 weeks in I find out you want nothing but to see me dead. Never meet your heroes."

"You ugly whore!!" Aisu shouted out as he weaved his seals, and a torrent of ice needles formed around Yuri and struck down, Yuri's ATs revved up and she went into a spin performing the palm rotation technique. Tesserai demeanor become more dishevel as she went to lash out at Yuri as soon as she came out of the spin. Yuri held a simple hand seal in front of her face, and Tesseria collapsed to the ground, screaming in pain as she held the sides of her head. Yuri had activated the Hyuuga Clan's curse seal, "I Really didn't want to use this... it's... inhumane, but your not exactly human anymore are you...weed?" Yuri knew that Houkou would already be on the move to dispatch Aisu, "Leave his tongue and eyes intact... there's plenty I want to ask him."

"Kill me!!! KILLL ME!!!" Tesserai begged Yuri as she held the sides of her head. Yuri sighed and crouched down next to her, still holding the seal, "I will... just not now... I want to make an example out of you. I think people are starting to see my kindness as weakness, they need to see that there is a line, that I will not allow to be crossed. You will be the warning, so everyone knows what happens to those who betray Kusa... cousin." Yuri held Tesserai up by the hair with her free hand, and then slammed her head into the ground, knocking her out. "Someone bind her please... and Aisu's fanboying ass... We'll make one last sweep to make sure we didn't miss anything, then we're heading out. And let's be quick about it, we got a Festival to prepare."

Aisu would be in no real state to fight after seeing his goddess so soundly defeated. Yuri began to glide away, and picked up the Benihime as she rolled pass, "Who wants this? It's not really my style." She said with a smile. She had gone through the fight unscathed, but her opponent was stronger than her, maybe many times over so. However, while Yuri was gaining strength, there was one thing she understood better than anything else, people. Given enough time, she could figure out what made someone tick and tear them down, with a few words. Some one as mentally unstable as Tesserai, and with the amount of time she had to gather information on her, it was a simple thing. All that power didn't matter, if she wasn't of sound mind enough to use it.

[An'ei Sekitan]

Houkou was only half watching the battle, predicting each movement with his Sharingan eyes when they picked up the movement, the man Aisu was about to enter the battle. Of course, the movement had not occurred yet, a split second beforehand, and he was on the move in a Dash! Appearing before Aisu as he almost completed the final seal, Houkou would gaze deep into the man’s eyes, his own tomoe spinning, hypnotizing the man and causing him to drop to the floor with his ability unrealized. The spikes of ice would never come to bear, becoming nothing but moisture once more, and Aisu laying on the ground unaware of the world. With a shake of his head, Houkou would get to work sawing through the man’s legs, then move over to his fingers once that was complete.

The ring of ice needles were formed, coalesced from the very moisture in the room, and they fell down on Yuri, striking her down before she could kill Tesserai. Blood and gore would decorate the floor of the Weeds headquarters as the Kage fell to the surprise attack, too full of herself, not merely full of spikes of ice. Tesserai would pick up an eyeball from the gore, then crush it as Houkou and the others watched in shock, not even having reacted this very attack, and Tesserai would pick them off one by one in gruesome ways until only she and Aisu were left. She would walk up to the man, her savior, and – The ring of ice needles were formed, coalesced from the very moisture in the room, and they fell down on Yuri…

Houkou was kneeling before Aisu as Yuri finished her work on the Kage, those Ice Needles never having formed completely, becoming nothing more as Aisu lay on the ground, completely unaware of what was going on now. Quick and precise, Houkou removed the final finger on Aisu’s hand, cauterizing the wounds and then incinerating the fingers. He had already completed the process of both legs, having cut them at the knee, severing them completely while Aisu was still down on the floor unable to react. The man would never remember what had even occurred, having been caught in Houkou’s Sharingan’s grip, falling prey to a power he could never understand. This was the Demon Dog of Kusa, a name that was earned, not simply bestowed. A quick slap in the face with his blade and Aisu was awakened.

“Now behave,” Houkou would tell the man, “Just sit there and watch…as if you could do something different.” With his hand he would gesture toward Aisu’s legs and the man would finally come to realize what had happened howling and attempting to grab his legs, only to find he had no fingers, and when he looked back at Houkou, only that malicious wolf grin would greet him. It did not take long for Yuri to finish off Tesserai, capturing the woman rather soundly. As the Kusakage held out the blade, Houkou would rub his chin, having bound what was left of Aisu. “I would not be opposed, if no other wants it. Ko loves gifts and I haven’t given her one in a while.” Stepping on Aisu’s face before gagging him and dragging him, he would make his way out, eyes scanning for any potential threats, although he doubted there would actually be any. An easy mission and easier money.

The ruling queen of grass

t had been a lot easier fight than he had expected in between the two ninjas from grass, especially as Emi noticed that the kusakage actually was less potent than her opponent. I guess power is nothing without proper useage, he thought as he rose from his hunched position. As his inner eye was still active, he was able to see around the building, allowing him to know that there were no lifesigns left.

The twins seems to have killed off the final free weedling, lady Kusakage, and I do not put any claim on that weapon. So if that was all, I will inform my superiors about what happened here.

Emi then bowed to Yuri and awaited for her permission to leave. The mission had been less chaotic than he had expected, yet fun to be a part off. It had been quite a long time since he did a proper mission, which had left a yearning for more. So as he flashed away from the group he began to consider what kind of quest he would be doing next, the harder the better.

-Attempted exit with Hiraishin-

[jintai]

Kiru had left after the operation was over steadily heading back to his house in the village. He had been completely left out of the action during the entire mission. Having taken out the escaping grunts Kiru was stuck with simple guard duty and none thing else which had led to absolutely nothing. But on the bright side however he wasn't forced to be contested with the high level ninja inside of the building. Considering his current level of skill he couldn't very well handle a situation on his own. Once getting back to he village he would need to work on everything to further enhance his skills. To one day kill as the beautiful lady Salihn herself.
