Staff Of Suna

[Spamato]

He was having zero luck on his end, at this point resorting to pulling people's collars down and shoving them off. He found a guy with a rooster tattooed on his right nipple...that was wierd. As he kept abusing the common people of Suna his device crackled to life. " I found them" Thats it? ...No directions? ....Well he headed the other way. Builing up to a light jog he made his way the direction he came.

After a few minutes he dropped his jog and looked around nice and careful like. He spotted the goggles on his comrade but tnot the other guy. He circled the crowd to make it look as if he came up from behind. Meeting Noboru he shruged. "Well where is he? And how should we deal with this? ...what does the scroll even say?"

[Noboru]

Noboru was quietly watching the man when his teamate came up behind him. "Well where is he? And how should we deal with this? ...what does the scroll even say?" Noboru quickly turned around and attempted to quiet him then glanced back to make sure they had not been discovered. Thankfully not, the man was resting in the alley.

Turning to face Takeda he now thought about his question. He silently pointed to the man in the alley and then pointed at where the tattoo was. Then taking a moment to sum up the situation he spoke, " I'll head to the other side and cut him off if he runs, you go in there with the scroll and try to find out where the staff is." Canceling his henge he jumped onto the roof of the building, being careful not to be seen by the man. Dropping down on the other side he leaned against the wall and waited.

[Spamato]

Takeda nodded and made a mental checklist. His shinobi tools where hidden underneath the cloak and his henge has remained solid. The scroll was out in his right hand. He would approach the tattooed man with heavy foot steps, his posture lazy. He wanted to appear like the weak civilian he was supposed to be. The guy he was approaching however didn't give off the image of your every day crook. He stood there conversing with a baker over the bread sale. The man behind the table looked flushed and nervous. The marked man stood at a formidable 6,2 with a broad shoulders. His shaven head and collarless shirt made the hawk on his neck stick out real easy. It was obvious this guy got his exercise, his arms looked powerful. His lower body strength was hard to determine. He wore some baggy green slacks and closed toe boots. No weapon was visible to him but you never know what could dwell in his pockets.

Tapping him on the shoulder Takeda would wordlessly flash the scroll, the over done dragon symbol being enough to get his attention. "Well? I'm listening." He was an impatient guy to boot. Takeda thought of what to say but didn't dwell to long. "What the hell else do you think I want? The staff went missing dammit! I was told to hand this scroll over and let you take care of it." The larger man would eye Takeda before grabbing the scroll out of his hands. Opening it up it read: "We have been found out. Dispose of the messenger." Bird-man closed the scroll and looked down at Takeda. Faster than he could react the bald man punched Takeda in the chest dispersing the henge. "Your in deep shit now, ninja."

[Noboru]

(OOC: lol owned)

Noboru watched from the street unsure of what they were saying. He could clearly see the tattooed man punch Takeda hard in the chest. Silently he cursed as he watched the back of the man, they had been discovered somehow. This mission was proving to be more difficult then he would have thought, this guy was fast.

Quickly Noboru reacted and after making handsigns he vanished from the crowd, reappearing behind the man sword drawn. Hoping to prevent the guy from attacking further he aimed his sword low trying to hit the area he thought was the back of the man's knees. Killing this guy had to be avoided if they were to retrieve the staff.

[Spamato]

[Sorry about yet ANOTHER wait. Easter..then school the next day.]

Takeda would have no time to react as he was sucker punched inn the face at full force. He would drop like a puppet with it's strings cut off and fall unconscious. For a taijutsu specialist to lose so easily... it reflected just how little Takeda did any actual training. He thought he would have an easy time after that, take the body and bake the arms and torso in a meat patty. Yes this annoying ninja would pay.

That was before the other young ninja appeared behind him however. 'Of course' he thought. Ninja came in groups. With the sword cocked back and ready to slice his tendons open Baldy did what any right minded fighter would. He jumped back-first into his enemy. The swing just missed him when his feet left the ground in a sloppy aerial maneuver. Now pushed backwards and the sword already extended he spun him self in mid air, both elbows back hoping to catch in in the face as he spun to face him. He would not even land on the ground in fact, if that ninja kept in that area he would be a floor mat for this pissed off skin head. In the event he manages to pin him he would begin to pummel the ninja's face with his bare fists. That act would be an agonizing beating leaving the fighter's knuckles and the ninja's face forever scarred. In the event the ninja dodged? ...well that up to chance. His unpredictable combat maneuvers made him an up and coming name in the criminal underworld.

[Noboru]

"Shoot" Noboru muttered to himself as the man he had attakced jumped back avoiding his strike. He hadn't considered that possibility, or that the thief was quick enough to dodge it. Then a moment of panic hit him as he saw his opponents elbows shoot out in an attempt to hit him in the face and at that range it would do serious damage.

Thinking quickly Noboru dropped his sword and made a few quick handsigns when the technique hit. Noboru however was behind the thief now. Kawarimi no Jutsu , unfourtunatly though the only thing Noboru could replace himself with was his partner Takeda who was now pinned by the thug. Once again making handseals Noboru took a deep breath, and shouted "Daitoppa" attempting to blow the man of the shinobi and allow Noboru the chance to pick up his sword.

[ooc: lol sorry man couldn't think of another way >_<]

Fuuton - Daitoppa (Great Breakthrough)
Rank: C Rank
Type: Ninjutsu
Effect: ---
Description: This is a Ninjutsu which utilizes the Wind Element. After bringing their hands to their mouth, the user will blow a large blast of wind capable of leveling almost anything in its way.
Limit: Wind Release

Kawarimi no Jutsu (Body Switch Skill)
Rank: E-rank, Supplementary
A technique that usually confuses the attacker. The user quickly projects themselves with another nearby object such as a plant (normally a section of a large log), an animal, or even another person within reach, leaving the opponent open to a counter-attack. In the anime, a scarecrow, a boulder, and even mud has been used as a body substitute, though this may not be considered canonical by few fans. A fairly common Jutsu, it is one of the basic Jutsu that a Ninja must learn before graduating to the Genin level. This technique, however, is not strictly limited to the Naruto series, as it is sometimes referred to as Utsusemi no Jutsu (Art of Body Projection) in other manga and animation series. A User can NOT switch with an enemy or a person due to the fact that everything is attempted base. You must attempt to grab the person first to switch him with you, before the technique can occur.

Baldy was blinded with rage the moment he felt him self under a warm body he began to pound away at his face. What cruelty! Using your partner like that is a pretty harsh. The time it took to form the hand seals had been more than enough to land three heavy all out slams into Takeda's face. He would have a broken jaw for sure. When the jutsu hit Baldy went flying along with Takeda's limp form. Not counting to baker and his shop along with other pedestrians. A poor jutsu choice maybe? Takeda landed with his face smacking a bread pan covered in bread batter and a wooden door. On top of Takeda was baldy, who used him as a shield to save him self from injury. "Your not very smart...are you sure you're a ninja?"

Stepping off Takeda, he grabbed a pretty nice hunk of lumber, maybe three feet long and pretty thick. A normal katana would have a hard time slicing it up in one go. Hurting his friend and giving his enemy a weapon was a high price to pay for distance but that is what he got. They stood twenty meters apart from each other. Takeda and Baldy inside the destroyed remains of the bakery( which no longer has walls to speak of.) and Noboru in the street. The shoppers and shop owners alike had cleared since the blast. Baldy would spit into the ground and approached Noburo at a slow stepping pace after getting up and army him self...within the frame of six seconds all this had transpired and he had barely gotten two steps to Noburu...this would seem to be the ninja's chance to counter attack.

[great break through? lol...nothing else huh?]

[Noboru]

[ooc: lol nope nothing else]
Quickly grabbing his blade Noboru turned to see what had become of the thief. Staring at the scene infront of him Noboru was almost blinded by his stupidity. The daitoppa had thrown the man as was intended but Takeda had gotten caught underneath him (in hindsight i have no techniques that are good for tight combat) and both had been flung into a shop. The man had gotten up and was now walking toward him with a giant piece of lumber. The really only good thing about this was the fact that the crowd had cleared.

Putting up his blade Noboru would once again disappear and reappear beside Takeda[2/4]. Before anyone could react though both bodies were gone as Noboru layed the body down on a rooftop[3/4]. He had damaged his teamate enough for the day. Now turning his attention to the now emptied street Noboru dropped down to the middle and drew his blade. Getting within distance he would quickly draw chakra to the sword and would slam it down on the ground, making a small explosion as air would rapidly attack his enemy.

Description: This jutsu is a high-speed movement technique, allowing a ninja to move short distances at an almost untraceable speed. To an observer, it appears as if the user has teleported. A puff of smoke is occasionally used to disguise the user's movements. It is accomplished by using chakra to temporarily boost the user's reflexes. The amount of chakra required depends on the overall distance between the user and their intended destination. Shisui Uchiha, one of the most talented Uchiha, was feared as "Shisui of the Body Flicker" ("Shunshin no Shisui"), likely referring to this technique.

The invisible "cone" or whatever it was buzzed forward, the unsettled ground making it clear something was coming. Baldy took the wisest or at least to him form of action. He would stand there and let it hit him. The great force that it hit him with could be reduced greatly by not offering up any resistance in the opposite direction that cone was going. He would instead let his feet leave the ground and let the cone slam into his chest, arms to his sides, 3 foot chunk of wood in his right hand. After it dispersed he would be laid flat on his ass a mere ten meters back. He sported a nasty bruise but not much else. If he stood his ground rather than let it pass he would have plenty of broken ribs to show for it. The unorthodox fighter stood after the onslaught. Not making a move to come closer. "You can fire jutsu all you want, all your doing is tiring your self out." His threats were not empty so far he had evade two C-ranked jutsu without a great deal of damage to his person. The way it looks he could do this all day.

[Noboru]

As Noboru stood there the man got back up after being blown back by the blast. At least this time his attack hit its target, putting away his sword. For now he would take his time and reach for two kunai behind his back. Taking one first he wrapped it with a exploding tag then took a second with his other hand. Throwing them at his opponent, detonating the exploding tag right in front of the man.

By now he realized that his opponent would evade his attack and when he did(if he did) Noboru would be waiting appearing[4/4] behind the man swinging and aiming for the neck.

[Spamato]

The speeding kunai...easily taken care of. The large bald man made use of the piece of wood in his hands. He would take the piece and throw it, the piece spinning horizontally. It would hit the kunai and veer it off course, exploding. Out of harms way he saw the Gennin disappear and immediately felt a presence behind him. His hot headed fighting style got the better of him this time though. As he spun around the katana at his neck slit his throat as he turned to face him. He effectively sentenced him self to death. He had eight seconds before he bled out give or take. With speed unseen before his hands shot out at Noboru's neck and squeezed. He would squeeze with everything crushing the wind pipe. He would die with his hands hardening in that position, rigor mortis as he fell backwards taking the suffocating Gennin with him. If something wasn't done Noboru's life would end along with the criminal's. In this mans pockets was a map…. that revealed where the thieves had hid the staff while all the excitement over it died down. Perfect plan ruined by a mysterious drunkard and two Gennin. Baldy had a bad run of luck is all…his death all circumstances and chance.

[Noboru]

Noboru felt his blade hit the man and was rewarded as it went across the mans neck. Then he felt, nothing... he couldn't breath as the man had launched his hands and had destroyed Noboru's throat. Barely able to keep conciousness he noticed a map, in a desperate attempt he focused what little chakra he had left into his hand and hit the map making it fly several meters away. Then he reached behind him and grabbed his pack, his whole pack. Placing it on the man's face it was full of tags. With his last ounce of life he ignited them blowing up him and the thief.

[Spamato]

Takeda in his semi-conscious state was brought to full awareness when a large explosion rocked the area. As he got up splitting pain in his right leg and jaw let him know a few bones where broken. Limping over to the roof tops edge he looked for his teammate. What he saw made it feel as his stomach was filled with rocks. Two badly charred bodies, entwined together. Both obviously dead. He jumped from the building making sure most of the impact was taken by his left leg. Regardless the pain flared up again and he felt as if he was going to pass out. He spotted a larger piece of what must have been a support beam crack to 1.4 it’s original size. He would use it as a crutch of sorts to reach the charred bodies. His fear where confirmed. Around on of the badly burnt bodies was a suna head band, the cloth gone and the steel melted into the skull. It must have been quite the explosion. He despised him self for thinking about the money that was lost in the explosion.

After puking up breakfast he found the map amongst the debris and thanked his comrade for saving it from the blast. He would henge him self into that of an old man so his limping and use of a walking stick would go unquestioned. As he followed the map it led him south of the village. The gates of Suna. What he found was an unusual statue...it resembled someone he had seen recently. Shrugging Takeda simply pushed at the top heavy statue, his leg groaning in protest. As it toppled it collapsed under it's own shoddy workmanship and he detected a faint gold glimmering. He found the staff of Suna. Discarding the cheap wooden crutch he had salvaged he would use the staff to limp his way to the tower…. or orb building thingy. Noboru would haunt his dreams along with the slain mist ninja. His lack of emotion on a physical level would not allow tears. But in a cognitive sense he was in anguish.
