Test 3 - <Guan-Yin> vs. Arashi {1}

[Chuunin Examiner]

Test 3 – Preliminary Matches

[/u][/size]

The 20 remaining contestants would be led to what looked like a basic, square building. It was large, going up about 2 stories, and was 110 meters in length and width. They were arranged in the pairs that they were in during the tower, with the exception of one whose single partner was disqualified. An examiner would step forward and speak to the group.

’Congratulations on succeeding in passing the second round of the exams. Apologies that none of you could complete the tasks, but you have all moved on. Unfortunately… There are too many of you to continue to the 3rd Round finals… As such, we are holding a preliminary round first. The 20 remaining contestants will face off in one match. In the event of a draw, both members will be disqualified. Failing here prevents you from receiving the status of Chuunin, however, so keep that in mind and go for it all. During a match, you will all be on the outer edge of the arena.’

With that said, they were all led to the outer edge of the arena. More of the examiners stood around the ring. Half of them performed one set of handseals, while the other half performed a different set of handseals, in an alternating fashion. The second half finished first as a large barrier was set 10 meters away from the edge. The second half then finished their handseals and what used to be all cement floor changed drastically, with the exception of one meter of cement in between the barrier and the change. Television sets had been placed around on the outer walls which then turned on and showed the contestants what was going on. An overview of the place showed the following (Without the dots and the legend)



The examiner, from a higher ledge, yet on the same side they were being talked to before spoke once more.

’As you can see, There are 9 different sections of the arena. A windy section, with turbines kicking up the wind. An ice section, filled with snow and ice. A water section, that is completely covered in water with generated waves. A wooden section, filled with trees, leaves, and grass. A lightning section, filled with lightning rods, clouds, and lightning strikes. A fire section, filled with lava, fissures, and fires. A sound section, with deafening sound waves blowing around. A sandy section, filled with sand, sand, and more sand. And finally, in the middle… The earth section, filled with cracks, dirt, and stone. The middle section is where you will begin. Person 1 will start on the edge of the earth section near the ice section and person 2 will start on the opposite edge, near the fire section. The match-ups will be chosen at random.’

With those words said, the Televisions would switch to a name randomizer as the names would start to be chosen. The time to start this round would soon occur as the examiner said a few more words.

’Good luck and fight hard. If you cannot continue and wish to give up, say so and an examiner will stop the fight. Now then… Let the 3rd round preliminaries commence!’[/color]

With those words said, the name randomizer stopped on 2 names, examiners would usher those two through the barrier and to their location… The 3rd round preliminaries were now underway.

---

Now for the OOC stuff. The arena is 99 by 99 meters, a meter of cement (enough for like… your foot), and 10 meters behind a barrier that prevents attacks from reaching that area. Each individual section is 33 by 33 meters. The descriptions for the sections are above in the examiners words. Please be sure to follow them. You can go to any section you like, we just ask that you state which one you are in at the top of your posts like this [Earth Section] If you change sections during your post, please put the section you moved to like this [Fire Section].

As with the last round, there is a 2 day IIC for the participants. Examiners will post sporadically to change the field around and do not have a specific spot to post. If you have a problem with your opponent’s post, Please PM an examiner AND STATE IT IN YOUR THREAD. If you do not state it in your thread, the other person will not know you had a problem and after 2 days, will skip you. So state in your thread when you sent a PM to someone, and if you sent it to one examiner, then state which one. Each thread will have one examiner to look at it, but any can be PMed for assistance. The following is the people in this particular thread.[/center]

Guan-Yin

VS

Arashi Kazechuushin

[/size][/u]

These will be the examiners that will state random changes to the battle field (IE: Random wave in the water area, flare up in the fire area) Changes will only be stated for the sections you are in. If someone misses the IIC, then any attacks launched on them will be considered an Auto-hit. If it was a killing blow, then they are dead. If not, then they are just hit with the attack. Please wait for an examiner to explain the damage to them before posting again to say that they are skipped. Any examiner can make a call on the fight. The only reason there are examiners to watch over the threads is so they can make changes to the battlefield.

POSTING ORDER:

Good Luck and hope to see you in the finals…

{OOC: Good luck Arashi! ^__^;;}

Head down, as she watched her feet take turns hitting the ground, the rebellious teen moved onto the next round of the exams -- yet once more something stood in her way from achieving her ultimate goal. Preliminaries. Apparently too many had been moved forward from round two, and the examiners wanted to cut the numbers in half, meaning only ten would proceed after these predetermined match-ups ended.

Everything was happening so fast within her mind, and as they spoke and explained the situation and rules, she tried to take it all in one at a time and assess the incoming information carefully. There were nine sections in which they could all fight at, each bearing its own element that shinobi normally dabbled into. Though normally a bit much, this arena actually intriguied this gloomy child because with her limited techniques, she could use any advantages that she may have to better herself within this match.

Anxiously, she eyed the screen that would display all of the competitors name randomly until two of them were picked. Her heart was racing as she awaited for her name to appear on that screen, and then it finally happened! Guan-yin verses Arashi Kazechuushin. She didn't know who her opponent was, but they said you can tell a lot about your opponent from just their name. Though her mind was already processing all of the possible scenarios that may happen, her face remained emotionless as she advanced to the center of the arena.

The earth section was obviously the most standard section to begin on. All of her movements from this moment on in this match would begin would have to be internally marked down to ensure the end result of victory...his defeat. The young teen was one to always think a step ahead, but things never go as according to plan or so the wise ones had once said.

Sometimes you have to break down and breathe~

[Arashi -->"The Ghost"]

OOC: Good luck to you as well Guan-Yin

Heading down from the stands where he waited to be called upon, he strolled down the stairs as with every step he took, the sound of the footsteps echoed through the stairway as he moved on to the Preliminary Round of the Chuunin Exams. This was yet another challenge standing in his way from achieving the rank of Chuunin. Their had been to many shinobi who managed to move on to the next round, which means that the opponents apparently must be quite skilled this year.

The chuunin examiners set up the preliminary round to cut the number of shinobi by half or possibly more before moving on and starting the third and final round of the Chuunin exam. As everything manage to be explain to him such as the rules and how the ring is set up and the multiple sections within the ring. Absorbing all the information in, he began to mentally prepare himself for his match against an unknown opponent called Guan-Yin.

Apparently, their was a total of nine sections within the ring involving the elements such as fire, wood, lightning, wind, water, sound, ice, earth, and sand for himself and his opponent to fight in. He had hoped that he had trained enough within his elemental abilities to take advantage and win against his opponent. Upon strolling down the stairway, his mind began to become filled with various qualities such as his training, his opponent, strategies, and what the future may hold for him if he would surpass this challenge in his life.

A flashback would spring in his mind of him standing in the stands of himself watching the giant screen, as he anxiously awaited for who was called next into the stage. The screen displayed 'Guan-Yin Vs Arashi Kazechuushin' as he took a sign of relieve as he didn't wanted to face his own teammate. As he sigh and reality had set in, he began to think of his opponent. He didn't knew anything about his opponent and who he or she may be or hail from. Approaching the entrance, he would head and advance to the center and take his position within the giant stage where his match shall be hailed.

Taking his position directly in front of the fire section as lava and other various nature of the fire element sprung to life behind him as the heat from the lava flowed in the air. At this point on, his mind was quickly set upon his opponent would stood directly in his path as he knew that he had to be careful, smart, and determined if he wanted to win this round against his opponent. He knew that he had to plan a step ahead of he wanted to succeed and win especially against a target he knows nothing about.

[Chuunin Examiner]

A leaf ninja fighting a snow ninja... The two were allies, from what the examiner could remember. Certainly interesting. On one hand, it was Guan-Yin. On the other was Arashi Kazechuushin. A smile pursed the lips of the examiner as he said.

BEGIN![/color][/font]

[Guan-Yin]

[Earth Section]

As the words, 'Begin!' Were muttered from the examiner's mouth, her mind and body began to immediately race through a course of calculated movements. That one..simply word shouted would echo throughout her head as her eyes began to flare up, and her true, evil killing intent began to rise as her Byakugan activated. Veins popped up from within her face as the entire field that they were fighting on became very clear to her. The teen's mind was like a super computing, processing the sections that were available to them, and all of the possible combination that she could be used to defeat her foe, everything was happening at an alarming rate. Though her opponent was most likely not aware of the trouble he was in, Guan-Yin was already scanning all of his objects on his person, but even more deadly -- one of her inner most abilities that was strictly limited to clansmen only which he was not was slowly revealing itself.

Reaching for a simple yet effective tool, the girl's small right hand slipped into her weapon pouch quickly as she easily knew where all of her items were located at from much practice. She drew a single Smoke Grenade that was then thrown into the air and activated with muse ease. While it exploded, a veil of smoke covered a 10x10m area within the middle of the earth terrain, directly between the two competitors. She had not moved an inch since the protector had yelled begin, but already her plan was coming into great fruition. The smoke, though not even close to being deadly, would disrupt her opponent's vision from her own, and thus he wouldn't be able to see what moves the girl had in store for him next -- even though with her byakugan still activated, she can see his every move. This was just a distraction for something bigger, and with that she wouldn't stop her performance just yet. After she had completed six simple handseals, another one of her clans technique became active.

Her doujutsu now fully awaken it would allow her to see her opponents strongest elemental affinity thanks to Sight of Chakra Nature. Ahh, the water release. Oh how the blue aurora shone brightly from his body as she had to assume the worst from this case scenario. His name, more specifically, his last name, had a very interesting meaning. Breeze Heart, or Wind Sprites. The truth was she had never actually dealt with a Kazechuushin before, but just from judging by his name she could already anticipate the sort of origins that he had came from. It wasn't good, and already she knew that this match would have to end fast, within her favor if she had any hopes of proceeding to the next round. Advancing to the water section was strictly forbidden, as he no doubt probably had the advantage there, and judging from her previous evidence compiled, the wind section was also not her friend for this match.

Water...wind, ice, perhaps? If what she had thought was true, just by learning about his one release and last name, he too could possibly have the advanced element ice learned and that field as well, could prove to be troublesome for her. The girl was a bit more destructive then one could be led on, so she knew actually what had to be done. Her limited variations of attack, though weak, could actually prove to be a challenge for her opponent if he was not careful. All within a mere second, she had already gathered up all of these useful information on how the battle will turn out in the end, though it was doubtful that he was the same way as her. The position that she was in, about thirty meters away from him, was like a double-edged sword. Sure, she was able to prevent him from advancing to the water section, however -- she would have to somehow move this match into her advantage, so with that her right hand slipped into her weapon pouch quickly, and began to shuffle around for several more items.

In the event that her opponent had been prepping himself during the revealing of her smoke grenade, she would equip a single kunai to an exploding tag within her weapon pouch and have it on standby. Still, she had not moved from her current position in the events he did not attack her, but if he did she would surely see it and conjure up a proper evasion plan. Things were seemingly okay for her now, as she had a pretty good stage set-up against her foe. If she had monitored his movements carefully, she could actually win this thing! The young Hyuuga knew she had to take things in stride, so she would then build up chakra within her body as she awaited for the worst, the match had finally begun and things were looking good..~

Rank: "C" "B" "A"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: Allows the user
Special: ---
Drawback: Byakugan user has a 360 degree field of vision, with the exception of a small blind spot behind the user's first thoracic vertebrae (as stated in the manga). Lacks the power of Analysis. This is demonstrated in an anime filler arc by Ranmaru, who created false chakra circulatory systems through the use of a dōjutsu (possibly a bloodline limit), causing the Byakugan to see inanimate objects as people and the objects themselves at the same time. However, it is not considered canon in a filler episode that a Byakugan user is unable to see the workings of such an "illusion".
Description: Can see the minuscule chakra pressure points. With the use of certain hand seals, it also has telescopic, X-ray, and thermal vision. The Byakugan is the key to Konohagakure's strongest Taijutsu, the Jūken, as it allows the user to see the chakra circulatory system of an opponent. Each level of its insight can therefore be mystified by proper means. When first learned they are capable of seeing up to fifty yards in a 360 Degree radius except for that blind spot. Each time learned this amount of distance is increased by ten yards. When the user reaches up to a distance of One hundred yards the amount of training is increased to that of "B" Rank Level Training. The amount of distance is still increased by ten. When the user reaches up to a distance of Four Hundred Yards the user is capable of seeing even further but with an amount of A Rank Training.
Limit: Must be part of the Hyuuga Bloodlimit.

[ - 1 Kunai W/Exploding Tag Prepped]

[Arashi -->"The Ghost"]

Earth Section

As the words 'Begin' echoed and slipped out of the Chuunin Examiner's lips, his plan had immediately begun as his mind was filled with various actions and movements he had prepared before the match had even begun. As those words echoed through the field and within Arashi's mind, he could feel his heart pumping as his determination could be seen within his blue eyes.

Just as the examiner revealed the start of the match, a whole new side of Arashi erupted and appeared as a fierce gaze look appeared within his eyes as his fierce gazed couldn't leave or move from his opponent's position. As his body crouched down to a comfortable position for him to calculate his actions, he hand slipped and reached into his pouch to withdraw a simply but useful weapon known-ed as a binoculars.

Gazing within the useful weapon, he wanted to examine and analyze his opponent. Appearing to be a young kunochi possibly around his age, she stood at around 5'4-5'5 in height and possibly weighed in around an average 105-110lbs. Examining and analyzing her clothing who she would appear to have a Gothic-like fashion theme going on which revealed nothing of her abilities and skills.

Continuing to examine and analyze the leaf-kunochi, she would seen quite good at hiding and concealing any ability or skill that she may possess from her opponents. Figuring since she is a leaf-nin, she could possibly possess the fire element, meaning she could be a ninjutsu specialist such as himself. Nothing else could be revealed or foreseen from his opponent known as Guan-Yin of the Leaf Village. His mind was overflowing with possible combinations that he could effectively use against her in combat to defeat her with ease.

If she had possess high analyzing abilities such as himself, she could have possibly figured out his elemental usage which could mean that she might be planning on avoiding the ice, wind, and water sections of the field. He had to accept any and all of the possibilities that his opponent may possess and he had to be extremely careful and must be on guard throughout the entire match against her. He watched on as his opponent had activate and used a simple smoke bomb thrown in the center of the field from where himself and she were currently positioned.

Disturbing his vision, his opponent had manage to make him lose sight of her which could simply mean that she could be planning something against her from the veil of smoke. As the veil of smoke concealed all of the kunochi's actions, he knew that he had to make his move now. Concealing his binoculars within his pouch; he knew that if he wanted to win this round, he had to reach and go to the other side of the field where his elemental advantage awaits.

Rising up, he simply went into his pouch and swiftly pull out a kunai with an exploding tag wrapped around its metal handle. Then he suddenly charged toward his northeast, as he quickly charged and headed toward the wooden-forest section of the area, completely avoiding the smoke bomb. While he charged at high speed, he formed handseals and threw the kunai wrapped with an exploding tag toward Guan-Yin. When the exploding tag would approach and near her, his plan would involve activating the tag, resulting in an explosion of sheer power. This plan is just to trigger and see what his opponent would do in such a situation.

Moved to Wood Section


As he arrived in the wood section of the area, he quickly scaled and climbed on the tall trees concealing himself, as he awaited for his opponent's actions.

[Guan-Yin]

[Earth Section]

It was really silly, but cute, how her opponent actually tried to analyze her person. Guan-Yin was truly one of a kind, with her normal rebel attire not giving off any sort of clue as to what she could possibly do. Not even within her name, did it give a hint towards the sort of specialty that she focused on mainly. This girl was truly good at deception, just like a true shinobi should be like. She grew bore of the child's fail binoculars and thus, she threw an smoke grenade within the middle of the field to end his vision on her, as it wouldn't help him right now anyways. In the girl's honest opinion, this shinobi did not have much experience within combat so he was just trying to mimic her movements as best as he could, trying and keep up with her.

But man oh man, he'd have to do better than that if he intends to win this match... win? Pfft, survive, even. As he placed his binoculars away she began to equip one of her own kunai to a piece of parchment, and by using her byakugan of course she noticed that he was doing the exact same thing as her! Interesting. A smirk, so small yet devious appeared upon the pale kunoichi's face as she knew how fun this match would be to play with this little boy today. Seeing as she began her movements first, she then removed a medium sized summoning scroll to summon one of her puppets named Higa. The scroll was then wrapped up and placed back within her starter pouch. Then, by using her byakugan she saw the other shinobi dashing in a northeastward direction, no doubt heading towards the wood section, possibly even water next.

We couldn't let that happen, could we? Hell no. As he was running to avoid the smoke bomb yet obviously trying to make it 'home free' within the wood section, he threw the kunai with the same piece of parchment paper she had prepped on her own kunai earlier. Typical. This is where a puppeteer truly begins to shine brightly. Her chakra was already being stored up from earlier and now it was about to be unleashed in all of her fury. Chakra from within her left hand began to grow and latch onto her puppet, breathing into it life. With fast, small jerks with her left delicate hand, the puppet would move at an insane speed of about fifteen meters ahead of her towards the top of the [Wood Section], blocking off the water section -- his apparent home.

The rebellious teen also began dashing towards the top of the [Wood Section] seeing as she was already at the northern most point of the arena, meanwhile her right hand slipped into her weapon pouch to draw out a normal single kunai with an extra kick onto it, her chakra. Using her right hand, she flung the kunai directly towards the one her opponent had thrown and the two had clashed into each other about ten meters away from her. However, the girl wasn't done just yet. With her invisible chakra strings attached to her single kunai, as it clashed into the second one, she quickly gained control of its position and redirected it back to its owner. Without him knowing of course, the kunai that he thrown would be launched back at him dangerously fast followed by Guan-Yin's own kunai, delayed only by seven meters. While he had the two incoming kunai to deal with from his west judging by his current position with her right hand controlling its every movement, at his northern position he still had Guan-Yin and Higa to deal with now.

She'd now have the puppet advance even more into the Wood Section as she stood at the very top of it, hidden among the trees while her all seeing eyes guided the way. The puppet would quickly advance about ten meters away from Guan-Yin's current position, and ten meters forward into the Arena in the attempts to attack the off-guarded opponent as well. The girl was hidden about five meters into the Wood Section and five meters away from the water section, while Higa was creeping up closer to her opponent from his north, and two kunai were still coming from the west. How would he manage to deal with all of this now? Had he directed all of his attention on advancing towards the water section, he'd be ambushed by her hidden puppet from within the forest and killed on the spot. However, if the boy focused on the incoming projectiles from his west, she'd not only spring a loving surprise on him but her puppet would go in for the kill as well. The puppeteer is the one who controls the fight within the forest, and it was a mistake for him to enter her own territory. The girl would be safe from afar while she directed this stage.

[Kugutsu no Jutsu, 傀儡の術 (Puppet Technique) (100 Meters)]
Rank: "D" ; "C" ; "B" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: The Ability where the user controls a puppet with strings of chakra. The puppet is capable of attacking an opponent with any weapons hidden inside of it. This technique is effective from long distances since the chakra strings can extend; they are also invisible, so the puppet can be used from a hidden location.
Special: Must be a Puppeteer
Drawback: Must be learned multiple times in order for the distance to increase. The more objects or Puppets used, the distance decreases, this means that if you have two puppets with a hundred meters of distance each puppet can go at a maximum of fifty meters each.
Description: The user is capable of controlling a puppet depending on the distance of the puppet. If the puppet surpasses a certain distance then the chakra strings simply disconnect leaving the puppet down along the floor. The Chakra strings can not be seen by regular eyes but those who have the capability of seeing chakra can truly notice such a technique. When first learned the technique allows the user a maximum of ten meters of distance. After each time learned the user can increase the distance of Ten Meters. When the user reaches up to a hundred meters then it is harder for a user to gain more distance so the training would go up to a C Rank training as the distance increases Ten Meters every time learned. After three hundred Meters, then the training becomes more difficult once more as the training ranks up to B Rank, at this moment the distance is unlimited.
Limit: Must be known multiple times.

Limit: Must be a puppeteer. Can only move objects as far as the puppeteer is able to control their puppet (Puppet Technique)

[Arashi -->"The Ghost"]

[OOC: When I threw my kunai wit./exploding tag on it, the tag would explode which would have stopped your kunai and any attempt to control the weapon and redirect it at me. Nonetheless, my character would take cover anyway.]

Wood Section

As Arashi stood hidden in the forests of the wood section, as he figured that this Guan-Yin girl may be overlooking his abilities and skills as well as being a little over confident which can be her downfall in this match. As he stood hidden, he continue to watch the leaf-nin from a distance so see and analyze her actions. He hoped that the kunai wit./exploding tag would trigger her to use her abilities or skills for him to see, which was his plan overall. He would watch on as she summoned a human-like puppet which revealed that she was a puppeteer.

Just by knowing this, he figured that she may possess no skill in taijutsu which meant that she will attempt to fight from a distance from him. He watched on gazing and placing his eyes upon the girl as he noticed that her left hand was controlling the puppet as she jerked her hand , which caused her puppet to move at high speed toward the section he was in. His plan was going perfect, as he wanted to trigger the puppet girl follow him within the forest where his plan would continue from this point on.

He knew that the human-like puppet was just north of him, attempting to block his path from the water section. The only downfall from his plan was that he doesn't know how many puppets this Guan-Yin girl may possess which is the only factor in his plan. Continuing to examine and analyze his opponent's actions as she continue to dash and charge into the wood section, just north of his current position. He figured that this Guan-Yin girl may this that she has him cornered and trapped within this dense forest of the wood section, but he actually got her trapped instead since he could use these trees as weapons to destroy that puppet of hers as well as herself.

Forming a series of hand seals that was performed at an insane speed, he simply swung his arm diagonally in front of him, releasing a sickle shaped gust of wind that blew out at incredible speed through the forest. As the sickle of wind blew through the forest and connected with the trees, it easily managed to cut through the trees, chopping down a series of trees upon Guan-Yin and her puppet's direction. As the sickle of wind continued after chopping down the series of tree as the sickle itself continued to head toward Guan-Yin's direction.

Meanwhile, Arashi stood and covered himself behind a large tree as he remained hidden from view as well as to cover himself from any weapon that may be or have been thrown at him from any direction. Nonetheless, Arashi had created and launched two attacks at Guan-Yin, as his incredibly fast sickle of wind as well as the series of chopped down trees aiming at her direction which would be quite hard to avoid within the forest. He hoped that he could either injury the girl or destroy her puppet with his attack. He would hope that the combination of his wind attack and the chopped down trees of the forest would crush and stop her in her tracks.

{OOC: Okay, few things deary. You have now reached beyond your own character's limitation. This match had the ability to be a very well off fight, but now I am a little ticked off on how much you use OOC information into your post that I am afraid that I am going to end this now. You've had your chance, and as I am a busy person and this is a serious battle, I'm not allowing you to edit your post. You chopped up my own post and used the information that my character THOUGHT within her own mind, and used it within your post. That is a big no-no when you are RP'ing, and you did that not once, but several times. You simply do not know everything, especially since you had no IC reason to back up your own thought process. Your movements directly corresponds to my own character's movement, which is something that you seemed to have been forgetting. I'll explain it all within my last IC attack against you. It's over.}

[Recapping Previous Events ~ Earth Section]

The staged at been set just as she had imagined it within her head, and now it was time for her to reveal the grand finale. As stated before, the girl was one to think multiple steps ahead into the future for the best plan that was most conceivable, and that plan happened to be trapping the rat right where he stood. You see, every move she made had a logical reason that she had behind it, and never wasted a single moment within this match. Her Byakugan activated since the proctor had yelled, 'Begin!' She'd move very stiff an precise as if she were a robot, appearing that she had been within this play over a thousand times before.

The smoke grenade that she had used was nothing more than a decor, and it appeared as though her opponent could not see through her ulterior motives. As he had to waste movements not only placing his binoculars away, and equipping a kunai with an exploding tag, the girl was busy away already summoning a puppet which took little to no effort for the puppeteer. Then he sprinted northeastward as she too controlled the depressed puppet eastern to block off his escape route with her left hand, while with her right hand she quickly felt a kunai within her grasp and she too ran with her puppet.

Because she could see all around her, she easily noticed the incoming projectile that was his kunai with the feeble exploding tag and deflected it with her own kunai from about ten meters away, far from harms way though by this time her opponent decided to press on and explode the weapon anyways, for whatever reason... No matter, the match was still in her favor as her opponent entered the dense woods filled with trees and bushes, her and her puppet both entered the [Wood Section] as well. Three can play this game, and boy can I play it well.

It would be near impossible for her opponent to be able to locate and pinpoint her exact location from his near normal sight, as she had cleverly moved from tree to tree, hiding herself from his own view by using her byakugan. Apparently annoyed with the situation, she saw him from afar conjuring up chakra within his body and creating handseals. Now! Twitching her left hand, she'd have her puppet move eastward from her opponent and begin its destruction, while the young puppeteer herself would only shift her position three yards to the west and crouch down behind a fluffy bush.

As his arm came crashing down to form the wind attack, her puppet would use its wires from its left hand to bind him to the tree that was directly behind him. The strong ninja wire would quickly and surprisingly, surround and trap the shinobi to the tree while her puppet leaped out from a bush and within five meters of him, expel a dangerous toxin directly towards her opponent for up to ten meters to end his life. The puppet would luckily be safe from this poison as it cannot breathe, but for the unfortunate soul, his binded body would have to bear the toxins within the air at an alarming rate. There would be no way for her opponent to just suddenly know of her location, as she would in doubt never give that sort of pertain information away.

Yet his blind fury would be nothing more then a distraction for this overly calculated girl surely measured the distance from his attacks and possible falling debris to remain safe from harms way. Simple tools like this were not meant to be used in war, and she couldn't be defeated so easily with such a one-two step maneuver. The puppet assault would happen simultaneously to the opponent's own attacking, beginning as his was ending. Unless he happened to be a Jounin, perhaps even a Sannin, there is undoubtedly no way a genin could be able to anticipate and defend from such a speedy assassin tactic that this girl had just displayed now. She'd watch from about fifteen meters away, ensuring victory from afar like a true puppeteer should. Had he managed to escape, her plan would change ever so slightly, but even so, she was more than prepared for the worse.

[Kugutsu no Jutsu, 傀儡の術 (Puppet Technique) (100 Meters)]
Rank: "D" ; "C" ; "B" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: The Ability where the user controls a puppet with strings of chakra. The puppet is capable of attacking an opponent with any weapons hidden inside of it. This technique is effective from long distances since the chakra strings can extend; they are also invisible, so the puppet can be used from a hidden location.
Special: Must be a Puppeteer
Drawback: Must be learned multiple times in order for the distance to increase. The more objects or Puppets used, the distance decreases, this means that if you have two puppets with a hundred meters of distance each puppet can go at a maximum of fifty meters each.
Description: The user is capable of controlling a puppet depending on the distance of the puppet. If the puppet surpasses a certain distance then the chakra strings simply disconnect leaving the puppet down along the floor. The Chakra strings can not be seen by regular eyes but those who have the capability of seeing chakra can truly notice such a technique. When first learned the technique allows the user a maximum of ten meters of distance. After each time learned the user can increase the distance of Ten Meters. When the user reaches up to a hundred meters then it is harder for a user to gain more distance so the training would go up to a C Rank training as the distance increases Ten Meters every time learned. After three hundred Meters, then the training becomes more difficult once more as the training ranks up to B Rank, at this moment the distance is unlimited.
Limit: Must be known multiple times.

[Chuunin Examiner]

[A couple things I had noticed... One: Arashi, you climbed a tree in one post and never came back down. As such, you are still in the tree, making your watching her all the more difficult as the branches and leaves would hinder your eyesight. As such.... I'm voiding the fact that you saw where her or her puppet went. You aren't right at the edge due to you having stated you were hidden. If you were right on the edge, you wouldn't be hidden. Its a very dense forest as that is all there is.

Two: The Wind jutsu requires no handseals, which was a fault on both of your parts. As such, his wind jutsu would connect with trees and attack them. Unfortunately, I doubt it would do much as they would attempt to fall down and get caught by other trees. As well, Arashi doesn't know where Guan-Yin is.

Three: Unless Arashi has some way to escape it, then the puppets binding would connect as would the poison. If Arashi does not have a way to escape it, then Arashi will no longer be alive and Guan-Yin will be the winner.

Guan-Yin. I do not want you posting after Arashi's next post. I will look at it when he does manage to post and review the thread as such. If either of you have a problem with my post right now, then you are to PM me rather then post in here and I will take care of it accordingly.]

[Arashi -->"The Ghost"]

As Arashi released and launched his sickle of wind technique out through the dense forest, the slices of wind easily cut through the trees as several trees were quickly chopped down within a matter of seconds. But his plan was a failure as the surrounding dense forest combine strength managed to hold and block the chopped off trees, thus stopping his attack. Struggling it off as he hid behind a tree.

He was unaware of his opponent's movements and actions, as he wasn't sure what his opponent Guan-Yin was planning from the cover of the dense forest within the wood section. Remaining in cover, he prepared himself for the worse for any assault that his opponent might come at him with. Then suddenly, wires were sent launching out of a bush as it attempted to bind him to the tree behind him. As the strong wires surrounded him, he instantly activated his bloodline ability known as the Kazeotokooya Megumi, which was the Kazechuushin's special gift.

Just as he instantly activated his ability, he transformed into his wind-cloud state as he would simply phase through the wires. This is one of the many reasons why he was known as the Ghost of the Snow Village. As he phased through the wires, he noticed that a puppet within five meters of him quickly began to expel a dangerous poison gas substance in the air which would cover a approximately ten meters around him. Unaware to his opponent, he had possess a gas masked which he always equipped himself which he had bought long ago for such a situation as of this.

As the poison toxin spread out in the air, it had no effect on Arashi's lungs or body. He knew that this was his chance since the puppet had exposed itself out in the open of the forest. As he escaped the wires almost instantly due to his bloodline ability, he figured since his opponent is a puppeteer, she would be hiding somewhere nearby, but he would have no way to find her location or what her plans are. But he had to make a move quickly, as all of this was going through his mind in a matter of seconds.

As he escaped the wires and used his gas mask to protect himself from the dangerous toxin, he activated his bloodline again and actually began to hover and fly in the air as he soared and headed toward the water Section.

Water Section

Moments later as he arrived at the water section after flying at high speed, he landed and positioned himself roughly sixteen meters within the section. He would then deactivated his bloodline and began to perform a series of hand seals as five water clones would quickly surround him. Then suddenly, a burst of water would automatically activate as the flow of water would quickly surround and form a shield around Arashi's body to protect him from any harm as he remained stationary, waiting for his opponent.

Kazeotokooya Megumi
Rank: D, B, A, S
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Transforms the user into the wind form of the Kazechuushin.
Special: --
Drawback: (See each ranking for drawback)
Description: Through the use of this technique, the user is capable of expanding their form, transforming into wind. However, all forms of the Kazechuushin will die if they are crushed by something larger than their maximum volume. Kazechuushin techniques are unaffected by the technique restrictions. If limbs are severed in the B, A, and S ranked versions, they will reform. However, if severed in the D rank version they will not, regardless if you switch to a higher rank. Kazechuushin techniques are unaffected by the technique restrictions imposed by ranks B, A, S.

A – In this form, the user is an even more separated chakra form, minimizing the central core to the size of no more than a marble and spreading chakra about the form. The user’s maximum volume in this form is four meters by four meters by two meters. Katon techniques of B or higher are enough to ignite the user’s form in this stage, causing them to burn up into nothingness within three rounds if not doused. If the central core is destroyed, the user will die. In this form, Taijutsu and all ninjutsu save for Raiton, Ototon, Fuuton, and Katon pass through them. The user cannot use techniques higher than D rank in this form, and no taijutsu can be used. The user cannot use any items in this form. The user may glide on wind, fly, and hover in this form. This form requires a B rank amount of chakra each round to maintain.

Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu (Water Clone) (20)
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: ---
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: ---
Description: Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique that utilizes water to create a Bunshin clone. Unlike a normal Bunshin, the Mizu Bunshin has the ability to interact more with the environment due to it having physical substance. This allows the clone to carry out limited attacks on its target. The range of the clone is limited; however, it can not travel very far from the original body. If the Mizu Bunshin is injured, the clone will usually revert back into its natural water state. When first learned the user is capable of having or capable of creating up to Five Clones. Each time learned the user learns this technique the number of Clones is capable of increasing by one. The maximum amount of clones is Ten for the Difficulty Class of D Rank. For each Difficulty Rank Increase the number increases by five of maximum but learning is still one per learned.
Limit: Water Release

Suiton no Tate (Shield of Water) (20)
Rank: "C"
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: The Suiton no Tate acts in a manner similar to the Suna no Tate. By using water and combining it with the users chakra, they can allow it to move around the body to deflect small incoming projectiles or even use it for techniques.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: The shield can not really block taijutsu attacks, constantly absorbs a very very small amount of chakra.
Description: Small currents of water flow around the body of the user, capable of deflecting small jutsu or even extinguishing C-rank or lower katon techniques . This jutsu activates automatically unless the user himself chooses to "disable" the ability in a situation. Does not acquire the awareness of the user to defend (can block strikes that the user can't see, like the sand shield has been known to do).
Limit: Water Release

[Chuunin Examiner]

[From what I can see... Arashi would be taken by surprise as the wires were released the moment you swung your arm down. They would bind Arashi, and his bloodline limit would be activated. Even if he couldn't do it quick enough, his gas mask would prevent the toxins from being breathed in. He would be able to escape the wires and make his way, while still as almost a cloud, toward the water area. Unless stopped by Guan-Yin in her next post, then he would make it there. The water jutsu would only occur if he was not stopped. If you have any further problems, please PM them to me immediately and I will see what I can do. This thread may continue.]

[Guan-Yin]

[Wood Section]

What?! Out of all of the things that the Hyuuga tried to anticipate, she did not expect for his body to just..vanish within the air. Well, it wasn't actually vanishing, because his chakra form was glowing brightly within the dark forest to her, but it appeared as though her puppet's poison would not effect him. The constant wind currents would protect the toxins from getting within his body, and thus she knew that her puppet would now become obsolete from even hitting him. It was now that she had almost wished that she had trained more into her elemental releases, but now wasn't the time to regret past decisions. The girl knew that each plan she made wasn't a guaranteed win, so she quickly had to keep on moving and focus on her next plan. This was it, she had to finish this now before things got really ugly, for her.

The girl immediately dispelled her control over Suziki as she took out a smaller summoning scroll and summoned Yamada. Still hidden from within the forest, she had a continual watch over her advancing foe and things were not looking good. Remaining calm, she'd take out a leather flask while making her puppet hold the container with several of its arms while she preformed twelve handseals, followed by touching her puppet. It would become invisible to the naked eye, but not to her Byakugan. Her opponent then crossed the border to the water section, still advancing towards the middle of the field, while she had other things on her mind. Birthing her smaller puppet alive, she easily allowed for it to glide silently yet swiftly throughout the air, controlling its every movement until it reached a close enough range to her opponent. Still hidden within the Wood Section, Guan-Yin noticed the boy create several water clones, and a shield of water -- his doom.

[Puppet went to the Water Section]

Her puppet still invisible, dived close to the shield of water, only about three meters away as she jerked her fingers for it to release the leather flask. Who would have ever expected and invisible projectile crashing down on them from above? The gel would open and once it hit the water, it would create a brilliant fire that would spread at an fast rate throughout the entire Water Section, seeing as she had used the entire flask. This plan was..her ultimate plan. Now that she had saw first hand what his bloodline can truly do, even if he were to active it once again, he'd be consumed from the flames as oxygen only feeds fire, and the volume of the fire was the entire water section, much greater than his own. He would be crushed. Her killer instincts was on high today, and she curved her still invisible puppet away from the scenario and back to the Wood Section. Though if by some miracle he should still live, the rebellious teen would indeed be a bit disappointed, but her rampage would only grow larger.

Class: C
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 104lbs
Grade: C
Slots: {30/35}
Description: One of Guan-Yins more easily accessible puppet, this puppet resembles that of an overly sized cockroach. It has a broad, flattened hard body with a surprisingly small head. It has a pair of very long, curved antennae that holds a kunai launcher between the two. It has six legs which allows for it to crawl quickly along the floor to surprise attack the enemy within a short amount of time. It has a wooden built to it with metallic joints keeping the puppet together. Upon its back, there are two wings that can expand out and allow for the puppet to fly when needed, but underneath that pair of wings lie two other unmovable wings to ensure the puppet is closed up at all times. Its strongest feature of its creation is that is can be completely detached from all joints and wrapped around the target to bind them. It is roughly six feet long not including the antenna, and weighs about one-hundred pounds.

[ - 1 Flame of God]

[Invisibility]
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: The creature or object touched becomes invisible, vanishing from sight, even from dark vision.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: The Jutsu ends if the subject attacks any creature. If the user who performs the technique attacks, the invisibility sphere ends.
Description: The creature or object touched becomes invisible, vanishing from sight, even from dark vision. If the recipient is a creature carrying gear, that vanishes, too. If the user casts the jutsu on someone else, neither you nor your allies can see the subject, unless those are capable of seeing through GenJutsus. Items dropped or put down by an invisible creature become visible; items picked up disappear if tucked into the clothing or pouches worn by the creature. Light, however, never becomes invisible, although a source of light can become so (thus, the effect is that of a light with no visible source). Any part of an item that the subject carries but that extends more than 10 feet from it becomes visible. Of course, the subject is not silenced, and certain other conditions can render the recipient detectable (such as stepping in a puddle). Actions directed at unattended objects do not break the Jutsu. Causing harm indirectly is not an attack. Thus, an invisible being can open doors, talk, eat, climb stairs, summon monsters and have them attack, cut the ropes holding a rope bridge while enemies are on the bridge, remotely trigger traps, open a portcullis to release attack dogs, and so forth.
Limit: Must know Glamour Perception of GenJutsus, Must know Limited Invisibility.

Limit: Must be known multiple times.

[Arashi -->"The Ghost"]

As Arashi stood several meters within the water section as he faced and positioned himself directly in front view of the wood section where he knew that his opponent is currently positioned and located. He was glad that he had survived her last attack and attempt in killing him. He knew that this girl was serious since she attempted in killing him with dangerous toxin gas, but luckily he trained quite hard in his Kazechuushin Clan abilities and skills.

As he stood and arrived within the water section and he had quickly finished creating five water clones as his shield of water would automatically activate itself, he stood there prepared for whatever his opponent may throw at him. As he stood waiting, he reached into his pouch, prepared to grab and withdraw anything he may need at the moment of his opponent's counter attack.

As he stood prepared; unaware to him, his opponent Guan-Yin had used her genjutsu ability to turn one of her newly summoned puppets invisible. Unaware to him, Guan-Yin launched and sent her invisible out flying directly to him as the invisible roach-like puppet flied within three meters of Arashi's shield of water technique that had automatically activated moments ago when he first arrived here.

As the invisible roach-like puppet stood three meters away from the shield, it would drop and release a now visible leather flask would from Arashi's point of view had just mysteriously appeared in mid-air on down to his shield. Within seconds, one of his water clones had spotted the leather flask dropping down onto Arashi, as he quickly signaled him. After being signaled, he would instantly withdraw a ice crystal as he quickly threw it into the water.

Almost simultaneously, the ice crystal and leather flask would activate as his shield of water was set upon a brilliant fire while three massive twenty-five (25ft) in length of ice spikes would immediately emerge from the water. As the ice spikes were created, the water shield would fall down upon the water in which he stood on while simultaneously Arashi grabbed one of the ice spikes with a hand full of chakra. As the ice spike grew in length and reaching its full growth, the entire water section was set a brilliant blaze, as Arashi stood hanging from a twenty-five (25ft) tall ice spike in the air.

As he stood high in the air, above a blanket of fire below him as if hell itself was waiting for him, he was amazed on how much his opponent really wanted to kill him. It would only be fair as he would now grow to want to kill her in this battle if she pursuit. Nonetheless, Arashi would activate his bloodline once again as he soared over toward the ice section where he knew that he had the advantage there and would hopefully end the match there with his victory.

Overlooking everything that happened, he realized that his opponent had somehow found him quickly within the wood section as well as him leaving and arriving at the water section when he had hidden himself. This would reveal that she might possess a doujutsu that could see through matter as such, as well as that she may possess skills in genjutsu which is how the leather flask had just suddenly appeared in front of him in mid-air.

Ice Section

Upon arriving within the ice section, he would quickly form the Ram hand seal as his chakra was concentrated onto his feet, as he was now able to cling onto the ice, allowing him to run, walk, and even jump from his hands and feet. Nonetheless, he stood there on the ice surface, waiting for his opponent to come to him. Upon standing there, he would withdraw his advance snowboard as he waited patiently as he withdrew and pulled out a kunai wit./exploding tag wrapped around it within his grip.

[Chuunin Examiner]

[Alright... Time for another ruling here... The puppet and the flask was invisible. It can be assumed that Arashi, you do not know what it is exactly. On top of that.... One phrase kind of messes you up. "Within Seconds" That can be assumed it is more then one second. The flask is filled with a gel, therefore would fall pretty quickly, especially with it being close to the ground.

The flask of gel would hit the water before you could pull out the ice crystal. You would be surrounded in fire, the water shield would be covered in fire as well. The water clones would be hit with fire, return to water, and also be turned into fire. HOWEVER. The Ice crystal can be removed and thrown. It would melt as it rises, but would still rise. Fire wouldn't burn/kill Arashi instantly, nor would it instantly melt the ice from the ice crystal. Arashi would receive several burns, would head up with the ice crystal, use his ability, and get to the ice area, still covered in burns.]

[OOC: Physically and Mentally exhausted, shorter post to follow >.<;;]

[Wood Section]

The girl couldn't believe how things were progressively coming to an end. Her relentless, tactical attacks were beginning to slowly hit on her poor unexpected foe, but it appeared as though much work had still to follow. Her opponent had surprisingly managed to slip an ice crystal to save himself from being burned alive, and by buying him time he instantly activated his bloodline limit once more and began to flee the area. It was..expected, but she didn't think he could actually pull it off. Sighing to herself mentally as she recalled her puppet summoned, her hands would once more fly through much practiced handseals as she summoned another puppet. This would be the third puppet within her collection, and hopefully the end to this treacherous battle.

Her opponent apparently had fled to the Ice Arena, after noting that the Water Section was no longer for him. Remaining confident within her abilities, Guan-Yin preformed a few more handseals and touched her puppet granting it invisibility, and immediately birthed it to life by controlling its movement with her chakra string, as it too climbed towards the water second. She flung the puppet within the air as she positioned it behind her silly opponent, still hidden from the Wood Section. Her puppet would then, from behind him only a mere yard away, use its broad sword and thrust it at his heart, attempting to kill him before he had even the chance to use his bloodline limit again. The girl was becoming annoyed..did this finally end it?

Description: Inspired from the western countries, this puppet has a more earthly look to it. The clothing is clearly a shinobi hunter type and it wears a mask over its face. Two broad sword rests on her lower back in an X-fashion which can be whipped out with great ease. Forty-five feet of ninja wire is stored within her left arm, with two kunai attached to the tip so it can carefully bound the target when aimed at properly. This puppet has a stronger grade to it so it can last longer when in combat. This is possible Guan-Yin's favorite puppets because it allows her to be more combativeness without actually hurting herself.
Cost: 6,500
Limit: Must be a puppeteer. Created by Guan-Yin.

~ Two Broad Swords
~ 45ft Wire {Left Arm}

[Invisibility]
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: The creature or object touched becomes invisible, vanishing from sight, even from dark vision.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: The Jutsu ends if the subject attacks any creature. If the user who performs the technique attacks, the invisibility sphere ends.
Description: The creature or object touched becomes invisible, vanishing from sight, even from dark vision. If the recipient is a creature carrying gear, that vanishes, too. If the user casts the jutsu on someone else, neither you nor your allies can see the subject, unless those are capable of seeing through GenJutsus. Items dropped or put down by an invisible creature become visible; items picked up disappear if tucked into the clothing or pouches worn by the creature. Light, however, never becomes invisible, although a source of light can become so (thus, the effect is that of a light with no visible source). Any part of an item that the subject carries but that extends more than 10 feet from it becomes visible. Of course, the subject is not silenced, and certain other conditions can render the recipient detectable (such as stepping in a puddle). Actions directed at unattended objects do not break the Jutsu. Causing harm indirectly is not an attack. Thus, an invisible being can open doors, talk, eat, climb stairs, summon monsters and have them attack, cut the ropes holding a rope bridge while enemies are on the bridge, remotely trigger traps, open a portcullis to release attack dogs, and so forth.
Limit: Must know Glamour Perception of GenJutsus, Must know Limited Invisibility.

[Kugutsu no Jutsu, 傀儡の術 (Puppet Technique) (100 Meters)]
Rank: "D" ; "C" ; "B" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: The Ability where the user controls a puppet with strings of chakra. The puppet is capable of attacking an opponent with any weapons hidden inside of it. This technique is effective from long distances since the chakra strings can extend; they are also invisible, so the puppet can be used from a hidden location.
Special: Must be a Puppeteer
Drawback: Must be learned multiple times in order for the distance to increase. The more objects or Puppets used, the distance decreases, this means that if you have two puppets with a hundred meters of distance each puppet can go at a maximum of fifty meters each.
Description: The user is capable of controlling a puppet depending on the distance of the puppet. If the puppet surpasses a certain distance then the chakra strings simply disconnect leaving the puppet down along the floor. The Chakra strings can not be seen by regular eyes but those who have the capability of seeing chakra can truly notice such a technique. When first learned the technique allows the user a maximum of ten meters of distance. After each time learned the user can increase the distance of Ten Meters. When the user reaches up to a hundred meters then it is harder for a user to gain more distance so the training would go up to a C Rank training as the distance increases Ten Meters every time learned. After three hundred Meters, then the training becomes more difficult once more as the training ranks up to B Rank, at this moment the distance is unlimited.
Limit: Must be known multiple times.

[Arashi -->"The Ghost"]

As Arashi stood and was clinging down onto the ice and snow below him preventing him from falling or slipping, as he stood prepared with a kunai wit./exploding tag gripped within his hand as he had and held his advance snowboard ready for anything that might occur. As he stood there, alot of things were running through his mind.

He knew that for a flame of god leather flask to just appear in mid-air would something to fly to aviod being caught in the explosion such as a puppet, as well as genjutsu to conceal and make it invisible in some way. He also knew that his opponent would have been hiding in the wood section, fighting from long distance. He would then realize that his opponent Guan-Yin had somehow discovered his location in the wood section, eariler on in the match as well as him escaping the wood section and arriving at the water section.

This would reveal that Guan-Yin possesses a doujutsu of sort which would allow her to see through solid objects and long distance as well. This would give signs of the doujutsu being of the Hyuuga Clan, due to him having a teammate being apart of that clan, he would easily know the signs of abilities and skills of that clan. Nonetheless, he knew that since his opponent may possess genjutsu skills, she may attempt to perform the same tactic of concealing a puppet and striking me here within the Ice Section.

He knew that since he doesnt have any technique in detecting opponents, he had to use his natural senses of hearing and sight from his surroundings which is the snow and ice. As he stood there with his secondary weapon prepped within his hand, he stood silent, attempting to listen to the signs around him as he looked around at the snow for footprints from puppets. As he remained silent and prepared with his guard on high alert, he would suddenly hear the sound of snow crunching behind him as he quickly looked behind to see several footprints which seem to continue.

After discovering that his opponent may be behind him using a genjutsu to conceal itself, Arashi jumped back several feet while he had threw a kunai wit./exploding tag toward the footprints where he was originally positioned, as well as performing a series of hand seals which he would end up slamming his hand in the snow, creating a dome of violent, twisting winds that would cover 10ft in diameter.

The dome of wind would be created over where the kunai wit./exploding tag was placed, as he wanted to use the dome to trap the puppet within and slice it into pieces and then use the tag to finish whatever is left within the dome of doom, sort of speak. Just as the dome was created over the tag, it would tear whatever is within the dome into pieces. Arashi would delay the tag for four seconds, allowing the dome to do its work, which would result in a big explosion at the end.

ooc: If this tactic dont work, I will surrender the match, since my techniques are useless and I almost died twice, lolz...

SPOILER: Click to show

-1 kunai wit./exploding tag

Fuuton: Kamisorikaze (Wind Release: Razor Wind) [20TP]
Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Creates a small dome, about teen feet in a diameter, similar to the Kamataichi (Cutting Wind) technique, just in a much smaller, centralized area.
Special: Rat, Rabbit, Horse, Dragon, Monkey, Dog, slamming hand onto the ground.
Drawback: Effects allies caught within it as well.
Description: The user performs the handseals and them slams their right hand onto the ground. Immediately, a burst of wind extends outwards, forming a dome of violently spinning and twisting wind, similar to the kamataichi (Cutting Wind) technique, except that this is in a smaller, more centralized area. This effect lasts until the user takes their hand off of the ground or one turn, whichever occurs first.
Limit: Fuuton no Jutsu

[Guan-Yin]

[OOC: You leaped backwards into the puppet's sword, but because you and I had talked via PM, if the examiner will allow it, you will only receive a critical wound and live..though you must surrender the battle otherwise I will go in for the kill. ^____^;]

[Wood Section]

Observing all from within the wood section, the young Hyuuga notice that her puppet was still a sitting duck within the ice section. As her puppet would once again, be aimed for his blind side though it was invisible, his back, she noticed that as its sword was being aimed to slice within his heart, he randomly leaped backwards into the puppet with its sword unsheathed for god knows what reason...there was no denying that he had just caused his own death, it was a foolish mistake on his part to have even continued this match this long against an obviously superior shinobi as herself. Had he not given up by this time, with a swift jerk of her hand, she'd finish off his body by slicing the rest of his internal organs. Hopefully, it was finally over.

[Chuunin Examiner]

[Just making a quick post here. I'm awaiting Arashi's either post or PM to me before stating something on the actions. Taking a critical hit is fine with me if you guys agreed to it. But I'll leave that up to Arashi]
