A Medic, a Slug - and a whole lot of fire [P]

[ladymia]

[Enter]

She had entered the area silently, Himara by her side as usual. Using the brown map given to her by the Hokage she had indeed managed to track down the rough whereabouts of the enemy headquarters, and as usual - she had came prepared. In her butt pack, she had her world map, a trio of blood pills and soldier pills, along with a scalpel and three small scrolls filled with numerous weapons. 20 darts, 30 senbon, 30 shuriken, 15 kunai and 30 exploding tags sat - already, it was quite obvious she was a fine user of projectile weapons. Over her pink and white kimono sat a green Konoha flak jacket, of which held 2 frag grenades, 2 smokes, and 4 kunai - one of which had a unique seal on its exterior. On the medics back, was a large scroll, where a gargantuan amount of steel throwing weapons were kept - 40 darts, 305 senbon, 45 shuriken, 15 kunai, 119 exploding tags, 80 exploding ice tags and one large iron fan. It should also be noted, that all 199 explosives had been attached equally amongst her senbon and kunai. However, even this was not the end to her arsenal! On her arm sat a unique senbon launcher, filled with a number of five senbon, it was covered by a long sleeve of her kimono, hiding it from the view of enemies.

Under her kimono, sat tight black shorts, covered with bandage, long black boots with open toes lay on her feet while black Konoha gloves sat on her hands. If enemies were observant enough, they would take interest on the unique purple seal on her forehead, close up, it was quite clear the seal was a diamond shape, though Kitsunés long strands of brown hair hid this from sight when she wasn't moving about. The girl turned to Himara, the slug seemed confident enough to try and approach the enemy from here, though Kitsuné wasn't sure, they had hidden themselves well in the foliage, and seeing as how as spying and subtle movements weren't really her forte - there could've been enemies nearby she had not noticed. Given it was late at night, she hadn't to worry about the safety of tourists and passers by, but the lack of light was a nuisance.

[← KIRA →]

The female had reached the marked region on the brown map that had been given to her by the Hokage. This was where she needed to be, but that didn't mean that she'd have an easy time locating the head quarters of the enemy. Though she hid, she could only hide but so well. A twenty-six foot slug didn't camouflage so well in green and brown. If the female simply looked around, she'd be able to easily spot one other person. It seemed that he was searching for something hidden as well. For now, the area was silent and without movement, beside the other male. All that could be seen was trees, bushes, rocks, and even more trees. What would the Konohagakure Chuunin do?

[ladymia]

Bingo! She spotted someone, though the lack of light made his details rather difficult to see, she could easily make out that he was indeed a male. She had to be cautious, he could've been an enemy, or perhaps he was another ninja assigned to the same task she had been? Either way, she needed to ensure he did not spot her, at least not directly. In this darkness, she was surely not see able, particularly since she had hidden rather well, though Himara may have been spotted, she was not overly concerned. A few quick handseals would transform Kitsunés appearance into that of an ANBU guard, one of whom came from Konoha, she had spotted him many times while entering and leaving the gates. A mask covered her face, and a cloak shrouded her body. Following her transformation, came more handseals, a clone of Kitsuné would form, basic and incapable of combat. The clone appeared as an ANBU guard, just like Kitsuné did. Upon creation, she ensured it had been hidden from the mans sight.

" I was never that great with impersonations but.. "

The real Kitsuné would make an arm sweep forwards in front of her, in just over a second a large blast of wind would have thrown itself forwards in a cone shape, lifting dust and debris off the ground. To the man, it would only appear as though a strong gust of wind had blown from the opposite direction. The clone jumped from the trees straight after, onto the earth, where the dust and debris which had been thrown about the air would make it impossible to notice the lack of dirt which the clone would produce as it moved about. Unless this man had a Dojutsu to see through her clone, he would not be able to tell whether or not it was a fake. The clone approached him, using the clouds of dust as cover - the mans reaction would be vital in what exactly Kitsuné would do next.

Bunshin no Jutsu (Clone Skill)
Rank: "E"

Effect: This technique creates intangible clones of the user. The clones are simply illusions and will dissipate when they come into contact with something.
Special: Tiger, Boar, Ox, Dog or Ram, Snake, Tiger.

Description: Bunshin no Jutsu creates a clone of the user, which can be used as a means to create a diversion, distraction, or cause confusion. Like Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Art of the Shadow Doppelganger), these clones will simply disappear if come into contact, but unlike Kage Bunshin, they are substanceless, and thus cannot do any damage. These Clones may be moved around freely and easily to the user's wish.
Limit: Universal Academy technique, must have a perception.



Henge no Jutsu (Transformation Skill)
Rank: E Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: Allows the user to transform into an animal or human of size or few feet larger.

Limit: ---



Fuuton - Fuusajin (Dust Wind)
Rank: "C"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: Using a fan or with the correct elemental affinity, the user can blow a strong current which will cover the surrounding area in dust. This dust will serve to loosen the footing for any opponent who walks nearby.
Special: User must give a full swing with a long weapon three feet or larger, or arm.
Drawback: Depending on the user's class level depends on the user's capability of using this technique.
Description: The user is capable of using a fan, or a weapon that is longer then that of three feet to perform, or even their arm. When the performs this technique they quickly attack within a distance of twenty meters in cone form. When the user is higher then that of "D" Class the distance increases by five meters. If the user becomes a master of the wind release it increases by additional Ten Meters. This technique is supposed to blow all types of debris along the floor up into the air covering their area before settling down in a loose form to allow the user to attack with stronger attacks as the opponent's footing would be somewhat unbalanced due to the non sturdy footing along the ground that came from the attack.
Limit: Must have the Wind Release. Must have dust, sand or loosen dirt around.

The male stood there, motionless, as he watched on in the distance. No movement seemed to happen in the woods, and once the wind blew from behind him, he wuickly turned around. Eyes seemed confused and he quickly scanned the area. Before he could glance at the large slug, the AnBu disguised clone appeared before him. The male stepped back a few steps at first until he saw the symbol of Konoha. Quickly his eyes widened and he smiled.

"YAY! BACK UP! THANK YOU FOR COMING!"

The male couldn't help himself but be a bit louder than necessary. The excitement seemed to be so much that the male even ran up to the clone and tried to hug it.

"Thank you Mr. AnBu, sir! I'm so glad you came!"

As the male said that, if the clone didn't move out of the way, he'd fall right through it. A saddened face quickly took over the male's visage. He didn't seem like he was much older than 15 years old. Tears seemed rather close to rolling down his face.

Now what would the Medical Director do?

[ladymia]

The face came out from hiding, and revealed to be that of a young boys, no older than 14 or 15. He had obviously taken notice of the great wind which Kitsuné had created, however now, the dust that had been blown into the air, had settled, the clone could no longer move about for long periods of time without being noticed as a fake, that is - if the young boy was intelligent enough to spot the lack of dirt and disruption the clones feet would create upon moving about. The young boy cried out in happiness, almost as if he had been in some kind of danger, however, he began to run at the ANBU clone, as if - trying to hug it. " Shit, that won't do at all " Kitsuné forced the clone to jump off the ground, 3 metres backwards.

Himara on the other hand had decided to try and test the young boys loyalties first, if he was in fact harmless like he seemed, then Kitsuné could perhaps come out of hiding. But if not, then further precaution would need to be taken.

This will help the animal feel threatened or feel more at eased, or to perhaps not even care or feel if one is perhaps suspicious in some way.
Limit: Must have an Animal Companion

[← KIRA →]

The young male fell right to the floor as the clone jumped back. The lack of dust coming up from his landing would go unnoticed, though, since the boy's face was in the dirt when it had landed. quickly getting up, the boy would look up to the clone.

"Why won't you speak to me..." The male's voice seemed questioning. "Are you even from Leaf?"

The boy began giving the clone an odd look as he stood up and began stepping back.

"You're probably an evil imposter! I'm tired of you guys!"

The boy then began to run away into the trees as he attempts to get away from the clone.

---

Your slug doesn't sense any evil intentions coming from the running male.

[ladymia]

The boy fell to the ground s her clone retreated, but apparently he had became suspicious of its loyalties. Though, he certainly wasn't harmful - it was apparent that his rather childish behaviour was no act, he was in some kind of danger, for as he stood up and tried to run, Himara could detect no such evil presence within him. " I detect nothing Kitsuné. He is no enemy. " Kitsuné thought for a moment on what to do, the situation could go in two directions. " Chances are, there could be enemy spies out there, if I come out of cover, I'd be at a disadvantage.. " she looked to Himara, she could tell the slug was concerned. "..on the other hand, if there are enemies out there - I can't let that kid go running about by himself. "

[/i] Finally she made her mind up, jumping out of the tree elegantly, with Himara following close behind. Her clone disappated, but her appearance remained unchanged.

Kitsuné and Himara were almost as fast as each other, catching up on the boy quickly. " Kid, wait up! " Despite being a slug, Himara was astoundingly quick, something surrounding people would pick up on quickly[/blockquote]

As the kid took off, he turned once he heard the voice of a female. At first, it seemed like he slowed down, but once he turned and saw the giant slug chasing after him, he took off even faster.

"HOLY SHIT!"

The noise level from the male probably wasn't too good for the duo trying to catch him, but seeing the Slug had done the trick, it seemed. Instead of running, the boy simply sat down in the fetal position; head covered with his hands and rocking slightly. The same words could be heard by the boy as he repeated himself over and over again.

"Please don't kill me-please don't kill me-please don't kill me"

It doesn't take you long to catch up to him now as he is no longer running away, but as you near him the ground below you, the slug, and the boy seems to crumble away. The boy is toward the edge of the cracking ground and the two of you are two meters from the center. The size of the hole, however, totals fifteen meters in diameter.

If you fall through, which the boy did for sure, you'll find yourself in an underground hallway. The hall way only leads two directions: left and right. Nothing can be seen either way besides darkness. If you do fall and inspect the kid, you'd find that he is unconscious.

[ladymia]

The boy had unexpectedly been shocked at the sheer size of the slug which followed close behind, he was scared, crouching down and covering his body with his arms. Though he was standing still, he had also shouted prior, attracting attention quickly to any who were within the area. " Damn it, stupid kid. " As the two only came closer to him, a strange vibration could be felt at their feet. As they became rather confused, they looked about - as if to see an enemy performing some kind of earth style technique. As the earth below actually began to crumble away, they took to more serious precautions. " What the!? "As the earth crumbled below Kitsunés feet, she called out to her slug, running forwards at the boy. " Get away Himara. I'll get the kid! " The Slug did as ordered, throwing her body away from the mass of collapsing rubble.

" As you wish Kitsuné "

Kitsuné attempted to run to the boy, but her actions proved useless, for the boy fell through the mass, as did she - unable to reach him, he was knocked unconscious. She jumped from rock to rock, managing to avoid the large blocks which rained at her from above. As she came to meet the floor, she could quickly see the lack of light down under. Approaching the young boy, she could quickly see he was knocked out, even from the rate of his heartbeat, to which she could hear from only a few feet away, she could tell this. She attempted to lift the boy, and swing him over her shoulders, for she could certainly not leave him here. Himara was above ground, looking down on the kunoichi with great difficulty. " I'm okay, Himara. But its hard to see down here.. " The brunette focused all of her energy on hearing and listening out for enemies, for her sight would only fail her here.

With only two hallways for enemies to come from, it'd be easy enough to get cornered in a place like this. The commotion from the floor above collapsing caused many guards to come rushing. The sounds of a many foot steps running through the hall way could be heard coming from behind you.

As for above ground, guards had heard the boy yelling out not too long ago. Three guards could be seen coming toward the direction that the slug is in. [Of course, Himara would be the one capable to seeing them, not you.]

[ladymia]

Her ears perked, for quickly she could hear the footsteps of approaching people, the steps were far too rapid to belong to only one person. It seemed to be coming from behind her, the darkness was dominant, but the light which shone from above managed to reveal two corridors. With no time to waste, she made her way down the opposite corridor, the boy on her back, unable to move by himself. Himara, who had witnessed her movement from above, would quickly see and hear more footsteps, from what could only be presumed as nearby guards. They stood some distance from her, but her great size made her an unmissable target. Regardless, the great slugs size and abilities made her perfect for this situation, her head quickly tunnelled beneath the earth, her body attempted to reach down into the corridor in which Kitsuné moved through. She hoped to escape the guards above land whom had obviously spotted her.

Should she have completed such an action, she would find herself within the darkness, Kitsuné right in front of her, continuing to run onwards. " Himara! Please - block off the corridor! " The large beast would do as asked. " I'll do my best. " Using her 26ft body, she would try and block off either side of the hallway. There was no way the guards could get past her..was there? All the meanwhile, Kitsuné flashed handseals, drawing blood by merely swiping her thumb along a kunai, sitting on her flak jacket - and open to air. As she ran, she would throw a palm onto her own stomach, the summoning seal appearing - and hopefully a combat readyUshi would appear by her side in a puff of smoke. No doubt these people were enemies, for their trap hole hadn't been placed there by accident

The slug would sit itself perfectly in the hallway and block off all incoming traffic from either direction. Nothing was getting past her anytime soon.

The guards from above arrived at the location of the hall and would find themselves with no target up top, but once they peered inside the facility that their enemies had fallen into, they'd spot the giant slug clogging the hallway. Not knowing what to do, the guards stared at each other dumbfounded for a while. Finally, the thought occurred to them; attack it. The first guard began his hand seals a half second before one guard and a whole second before the third guard. The first guard would spit up a large amount of sticky inflammable liquid. With timing being set, the second guard's jutsu would finish next and a giant fireball soared down and would strike the stuck slug. The fireball would hit and would do extra damage due to the liquid that had been spit on the slug. The liquid would also catch on fire and stay lit [three turns]. Finally, the last guard from up top would finish his and the other two would move out of the way. An ash like attack would exit his mouth and drench the slug that was below blocking the hall way with her massive body. With a single touch of the ash, the person hit would be left with burns on the infected area.

The guards from behind had begun their hand seals at about the same time as the guards from above. As everything happened from above, so would all of this. The ones down here, though, all started at the same time as the first guard from up top. One would simply create twenty pressurized cubes which could not be seen, while the other two formed attacks. One would form a lightning bolt which would be chucked at the giant slug while the other one formed a pillar, but where it came up from was the damaging part. Using his prowess in the earth release, the ninja would force the pillar to erect from the ceiling down into the slug; trying to trap her in place and stab her at the same time. The guard that made the cube had started a string of hand seals right after and he finished after everyone's attacks had finished. Finally, every cube he made [20] would burst into wind senbon. Each cube created twenty senbon and he fired all of them at the slug; a total of 400 senbon.

The guard that had used the earth technique could be heard speaking.

"More guards are needed. We have an intruder."

As Kitsune made her way down the hall and summoned her fabled companion, she'd run into a dead end. She had two choices; a door on her left and one on her right. The boy is still unconscious.

As her summon had appeared by her side, she stopped momentarily, for surely she needed to brief him on the situation. " Kitsune? Why did you - " The girl interupted " I need your help Ushi. I'm on a high ranking mission, we're currently being pursued by at least 3 or 4 enemies. I have Himara blocking off the corridor behind us, but I don't know how long she can stay there for. " She paused " Given how dark this place is, I'll need your fine sense of smell to hunt out enemies. " The beast processed the information, before nodding, as they carried onwards, they finally came to the doors, there wasn't much time to waste, they could not stop and waste time any longer. The girl moved through the left door, the boy on her back, and Ushi running on all fours by her side. The beast would begin to use his refined sense of smell, to try and locate the scent of any enemies who had gone through this corridor recently, should he find a scent, he would then be able to hunt down nearby enemies, and thus use it to try and move Kitsuné in the right direction.

Meanwhile, Himara had stood her ground for some several seconds, before the guards had finally decided to attack her. As the first guard had began his handseals, Himara had suddenly became aware of the fact that the guards had gone silent. It took the first guard some time, to finally spew a thick, oil type substance onto her body, although her thick covering of slime did not allow it to touch her skin, she could still very much detect the smell of the substance, her antennae subtly picking the up odours. " Oil?." As the man finally finished spewing his oil substance, the slug had quite quickly figured out what their plans would be next, for you only ever covered something in oil, for one reason, and one reason only - to burn it. Two quick body flickers in concession forwards had the large beast out of harms way, and 20 metres further up the corridor.[AC: 2/8] Should she have escaped the men, and found herself within the darkness of the hallway, she would quickly speed herself up the structure, to relocate with Kitsuné. As she moved up the corridor, her own natural produce would be left behind, a sticky fluid, catching these ninjutsu users in place. Making their way up the corridor would be impossible in this darkness, for they would only get stuck and immobilised with every step they took. Unless they had some way to spot it?

" Forgive me Kitsuné..I could not hold them off any longer.. "

Effect: A Slug or a Snail - makes the slime trail it leaves behind them very sticky, immobilising some targets and preventing them moving around.
Special: None
Drawback: The slime doesn't dry up easily, it stays on the field for the entire match. Meaning the Animals master/mistress is at risk of being caught also if not careful.
Description: As the Slug/Snail moves around, it leaves a very sticky and somewhat shiny seethrough slime behind it, this slime can catch any who stands in it and immobilise them for a certain amount of time. A Non Taijutsu specialist would be caught in this slime for 2 posts, a Taijutsu Specialist would be caught for one, and a Taijutsu master would merely be slowed down, but not actually immobilised. Of course, those with some sort of great strength boost like Gates or Will Of Kratos can easily pull themselves through the slime without any trouble. The Animal can see their slime at all times, and are incapable of being caught in it.
Limit: Must have a Slug or Snail Animal Companion, or one which leaves a Slime Trail behind them.

Torakkingu Nioi (Tracking Scent)
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Skill: Skill
Effect: An animal companion hones their sense of smell to such levels that they may track an opponent.
Special: N/A
Drawback: Certain animals cannot progress to the higher levels of this technique do to their lack of acute scent abilities. Animals with unremarkable scent abilities, such as the bird, can only learn up to the B ranked version of this technique.
Description: The user of this technique gathers their natural scent abilities, using them to track an opponent. The animal catches the scent of the tracked object or person, and from there follows the scent trail. With the D ranked version, the user can only track a scent ten days old. Each rank higher that is trained increases the time frame by ten days. This means that a user with the C ranked version can track a scent twenty days old, while the S ranked version can track a scent fifty days old. This technique may be used to track humans, objects, or even herbs. However, when tracking an herb or poison, the user can only track an herb or poison of the same rank of as their current level of this technique. The user can only track an herb they have encountered in the past. The user must have encountered either a poison itself or the components making it up in the past in order to track it. This technique increases the user’s chance of finding an herb by five percent. This amount increases by a further five percent at each rank, so an S rank user has their chance of finding an herb increased by twenty five percent. The user can track an opponent over various terrains, including grassland, hard earth, and undisturbed snow and sand, and still water. When tracking another human being, the user has a thirty percent chance of catching a scent while in the same region, or a ten percent chance while in an adjacent region. A user must have at least one post between each post asking for a scent roll. This percentage increases by ten at each rank, so the S ranked version of the technique allows the user a seventy and fifty percent chance, respectively. Once a scent is successfully caught, and the user is in the same region as the tracked victim, the user has a twenty percent chance of finding them. This percentage increases by ten for each rank of this technique learned, so the S ranked version offers a sixty percent chance.
Limit: Must have at least fifty training points with animal companion beyond Control, Teamwork, Understanding, and Friendship

With the summons heightened sense of smell, he'd be able to pick up a plethora of scents that had past by in the last thirty days. Many repeating themselves as they went through the door on the left, right, and even away from the doors to where she came from. If he tried to pinpoint the most recent scents, then he'd find three scents going into each door; the left and right one. The time that had elapsed since the scents entered the rooms had been about an hour.

The guards from behind had begun their hand seals at about the same time as the guards from above. As everything happened from above, so would all of this. The ones down here, though, all started at the same time as the first guard from up top.

Considering that all the guards from behind her had started at the same time as the first one, the one that used the water jutsu, from above, all the guards below had finished at the same time. As the oil had spat out of the mouth of the guard from above, a lightning bolt had been thrown, cubes of air had been formed and a pillar had begun to protrude from the earth. Considering that the distance from the ceiling to the slug was nonexistent, the pillar would simply push through the body of the slug, as it had not been countered in any way, thus trapping it in place. As this occurred, a lightning bolt would strike it's back and then the oil would land on it. Though four of them finished at the same time, it was based off of the distance of the technique to the slug that dictated which hit first. Also, considering that the slug had lodged herself in the hallway by drilling herself into the ground in order to block off the hall way, there wasn't much wiggle room for her to even move, and the fact that she had been pierced by the pillar which was holding her in place. Half a second after being struck by the oil, a large fireball would fly toward the slug and hit her, activating the oil as it did so. The slug would take the damage from the fireball in addition to taking extra damage from still burning from the fire that would stay on her due to the oil. Half a second after that, an ash would fall over the exposed part of her body which would simply burn her as soon as it touched her. Finally, the last attack to strike her would be from behind and it would come from the twenty wind cubes that had been formed. The four hundred senbon would tear her back side up. All in all, she just got work done to her all over.

[OOC: Kira thank you sooo much for having so much patience with me! I've had like really not much time at all to post here in the last while, so I really appreciate you waiting like this for me. <3]

Kitsuné had covered around 40 metres since she had initially began running , and Himara was a good distance away because of it. Ushi had picked up scents of enemies in all directions, it was difficult even for him, but he was soon able to discover that the doors up ahead had an extravagant amount of scents floating through them, the more scents, the more enemies, and that was where they would go. "Kitsuné, I'm detecting strong scents from up ahead - the left door, or the right door? " Kitsuné stopped, however, her attention returned to where she had previously came from. Himara - she knew the slug couldn't hold back the large number of enemies forever, what had become of her? Her handseals began in a long sequence, a few seconds would have a single clone appear by her side. " Ushi, go with this clone, and head back down the hallway, make sure Himara has dealt with everything accordingly. I'll use your information and head further down the corridor, if you get into trouble, surely flee. And get back to me as quickly as possible! Understood? " The fox was hesitant at first, but an order was an order. " Fine. " the fox ran by the clones side, and they fluidly began to make their way back down the hall. Kitsuné ran through the right door , her eyes and ears on the hunt for life surrounding her.


Meanwhile, Himara had found herself in quite a bit of trouble. Unknowingly to her, as the first guard had spat oil all over her, the other two guards had used their attacks as well. One had thrown a bolt of terrifying lightning, shocking and damaging her slimy body. " GUH! " However, the pillar of earth that had shot down at her would be stopped from doing anything severe. The Slugs natural slime defence would stop the pillar from piercing her, merely pressing against Himaras body. However, the shock damage which she was forced to take pained her body. Her eyes could clearly see that the enemies were making more handseals, and with oil on her body she already knew what their intentions would be. Her state of mind had suddenly changed from calm to desperate, she wasn't planning to die here. As the man rushed through his handseals and spat his giant fireball she used every muscle in her body to force herself into two shunshins in succession, further down the hallway and into the darkness where the eye couldn't see. The flames would engulf the area where Himara had once stood, and make walking there rather dangerous. The explosion could also potentially damage the hallways entrance, possibly making it even more dangerous to try and enter.

The Slug had moved 20 metres down the hallway with her shunshins, and hopefully she would soon come in contact with Kitsunés clone and Ushi, who could patch up her wounds in a jiffy. " Guh, damn.. "

Do be aware that the technique that Himara used needs to be prepped, and it was never prepped throughout this whole thread. The technique isn't passive; it's a technique that actually has to be used.

Kitsune would send her medical clone and summon back down the hall way in hopes of helping the slug that had been left, while she continued on through the 7' tall door on the right. Once she entered, she'd notice that the place down here was kind of like a maze. Inside, she'd see three doors inside the 15 by 15 meter room. One was straight in front of her while one was on the right wall and the remaining door was on the left wall. The walls, ceilings, and floor of this room were made of metal. A single air vent over every door. The door straight ahead of you would swing open and a single man, dressed in what seemed to be a grunt uniform, would approach you.

"Who a-a-are you and wh-wh-what do you wa-wa-want?!"

It was a bit obvious he was new to this, but he didn't seem like he was going to stand down. His outfit was close to skin tight and the only weaponry we seemed to have on him was a single Katana and a small piece of paper, the size of a tag, on the blade's tip.

The boy being carried is starting to move around. Perhaps he's close to waking.

---

---

She moves-- Ash breath and wind senbon jutsu are stopped. Fireball misses, water hits, and pillar is pushed off. Slug goes forward.

Once the medical clone and the summon arrived, they'd simply see slug charging right through them as she shunshined twice. The clone would heal the slug as it crashed into each other, and the slug and summon would be there together. The one adept in earth jutsu, however, would slip into the ground and travel under the whole mess. He'd then pop up five meters away from the bit of fire. The one with the wind cubes moved forward, a shunshin through the flames would leave him with little pain. The lightning user would follow suit. Pursuit had begun again. Three of the guards were chasing the slug and summon; others guards were sure to appear soon as they had been called upon a few turns ago.

"WE'RE GONNA GET THE PROMOTIONS!"

" Just in time.. "

The great slug had escaped, barely. She stood in the path of Ushi and the fox summon, and it was clear her condition wasn't great. " I've never been so glad to see your faces.. " the medical clone made contact with the slug and quickly her wounds would heal. " One of Kitsunés medical clones..thank you Kitsuné " However, it seemed the enemy was on pursuit, Ushi would jump atop Himaras slimy body, and the Slug would begin to speed itself down the hallway , towards Kitsunés location. As a taijutsu master, it moved particularly fast, these ninjutsu experts would have a rough time keeping up with her. In the instance they threw attacks down the hall, Ushi, who faced the direction of the enemy, would make counters. At any rate, Himara had been creating her natural substances along the hallway as she moved through it, her sticky slime trail would immobilise those who stood in it, following her in this darkness would not be the best of ideas.

Meanwhile, at Kitsunés location, she found herself standing within another room, with three doors at her disposal - this place was the same in every corner, it was easy to get lost. The door right in front of her swung open, a man with a nervous voice beginning to speak out. Kitsuné was quick to pick up on his lack of confidence, she knew right away she had the edge here. The boy on her shoulder seemed to be moving around, it was without a doubt, the worst possible time for him to wake up, for he'd only be a burden to her if he were to wake. " I can't risk wasting time.. " At any rate, this opponent needed to be killed quickly, he carried a Katana, so presumably he was skilled with close range combat. Handseals were made, and quickly the man would find himself unable to detect Kitsuné at all, her body having dissipated into thin air. Immediately after, he'd find his body paralysed as a tree grew from behind him, binding his arms, legs, torso, and mouth in thick branches. He was stuck to the tree, he had no escape now. Kitsuné would emerge from the bark, a kunai in hand, she would attempt to pierce the mans neck with her metal tool, hitting his jugulars and killing him quickly.

Magen: Jubaku Satsu (Demonic Illusion: Tree Bind Death)
Rank: "B" Rank
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: A Jutsu that is made where the opponent stays in place, and is unable to move for a brief moment. While the opponent is unable to move for that brief moment the user comes from behind to stab the opponent with a kunai or another type of weapon in a close range manner.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: The opponent must be looking at the User. It does not have to be the eyes, but at least must be looking at the opponent.
Description: When the user performs the handseals, the user suddenly disappears from the opponent's eyes in a shimmering form. When the user disappears from the very sense of sight of the technique, the opponent will find themselves incapable of moving for a brief moment of time as a large tree begins to form along the very ground. The tree grows larger and larger as it begins to wrap its branches around the very user. As this is done then the opponent is incapable of moving at all in any type of movement unless they are capable of escaping the GenJutsu. When everything is safe and the opponent is in the clear of moving that is when the user shows their face by doing what is considered to be "morphing" from the tree appearing on top or around the opponent as they would use a melee style attack against the opponent.
Limit: Must know Phantasm Perception

Description: As the Slug/Snail moves around, it leaves a very sticky and shiny seethrough slime behind it, this slime can catch any who stands in it and immobilise them for a certain amount of time. A Non Taijutsu specialist would be caught in this slime for 2 posts, a Taijutsu Specialist would be caught for one, and a Taijutsu master would merely be slowed down, but not actually immobilised.

[← KIRA →]

As the enemy ninja ran after the slug and the summon, the one in the lead, the earth user would become immobile. Immediately, he'd call for the others to stop moving. He would then complete a few hand seals before he began his technique. The earth along the group would begin to soften and rise to the top as it moved forward. Now that the earth had resurfaced, it was safe to move forward again. The wind user would place all the cubes he had made in front of the group of three now. It was ready to be used, and until then, it'd be a defense. The slug would find herself reaching the same place that Kitsune had not too long ago. What was she to do? The enemies were closing in.

In no time, the male would drop to the ground; the only thing left for him was death. His weapon would fall to the ground and make an odd thud. From where you stood, it didn't quite look like metal at all. In addition to the katana, a drown wallet looking thing fell out of the now deceased male's pocket. The boy on her shoulder was beginning to mumble words. He would definitely be coming too very soon. How would the Chuunin continue?

Doton Doryuu Taiga (Earth Flow)
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: The user creates a large massive like Earth slide by using a reverse ingenuity towards the normal
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: Depending on the difficulty class as well as the knowledge of the Doton Soushi no Jutsu (Rock Creation Technique) is dependent on how strong and how large the mud like slide can become. When the user is capable of reaching "A" Class the knowledge of placing their hands onto the very ground becomes obsolete, and the user is capable of performing the technique without having their hands along the ground.
Description: The user focuses the chakra along the floor as the user does the handseals. The user does not have to touch the ground but use the same basic concept as that of Doton Soushi no Jutsu (Rock Creation Technique). By using a reverse creation the user makes the ground softer, makes the ground into a mud like substance as the user creates a mudslide towards the enemy in a straight line like cone. Depending on the strength of the Doton Soushi no Jutsu (Rock Creation Technique) that the user knows as well as the Difficulty class is dependent on the distance the technique can be used. The stronger the user gets the stronger the mudslide becomes. Since this type of technique is being run by the chakra of the user this means that, the opponent cannot walk along the mudslide.
Limit: Needs the Earth Release, must have knowledge of the Doton Soushi no Jutsu (Rock Creation Technique).

I'm back <3
_________________________

With the man quickly slaughtered, objects could be seen falling from his body as it descended to the floor - the Katana being one of them. The blade her opponent once held looked abnormal to her now, it didn't look like metal, what was even more strange was the noise it made as it collided with the ground below. Something else could be seen as well, some kind of wallet-like object, what on earth was it? The Chuunin needed to inspect, though - she couldn't be sure these objects were not harmful. Grabbing a kunai off her Chunin flak jacket, the weapon was thrown with great precision at the wallet, attempting to pierce it and ensure it wasn't a trap. If it were not to do anything out of the ordinary, she would proceed to moving closer for inspection. The boy on her shoulder was starting to speak, and with enemies eventually going to catch up to her, she couldn't risk him making loud noises. However, at the same time she didn't want to have to knock him out in order to shut him up either. Though on the bright side - perhaps he'd have information on the enemy?

Meanwhile, Himara and Ushi were well ahead of the enemies chasing them. Having slowed them down for a while thanks to Himara's sticky slime. Though they would soon catch up, and so there was really no time to hang around, they sped onwards following Kitsunés scent in order to track where she had gone to.

Kitsuné:

Illusion Sensing
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Skill: Passive
Effect: Allows the user to detect genjutsu.
Special: ---
Drawback: Does not break the genjutsu, only tells the user that a genjutsu is in effect.
Description: This technique allows the user to sense the various fluctuations in the chakra around them. These fluctuations will allow the user to identify that a genjutsu is in play. The user is able to use this technique with the same distance chart as Mind’s Eye of the Kagura. The user need not be affected by the illusion to see it. Also note that the user can only sense Genjutsu of the same rank of this technique. Meaning D rank Illusion Sensing can detect D rank Genjutsu and so on and so forth.
Limit: Must be a Sensor.

Torakkingu Nioi (Tracking Scent)
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Skill: Skill
Effect: An animal companion hones their sense of smell to such levels that they may track an opponent.
Special: N/A
Drawback: Certain animals cannot progress to the higher levels of this technique do to their lack of acute scent abilities. Animals with unremarkable scent abilities, such as the bird, can only learn up to the B ranked version of this technique.
Description: The user of this technique gathers their natural scent abilities, using them to track an opponent. The animal catches the scent of the tracked object or person, and from there follows the scent trail. With the D ranked version, the user can only track a scent ten days old. Each rank higher that is trained increases the time frame by ten days. This means that a user with the C ranked version can track a scent twenty days old, while the S ranked version can track a scent fifty days old. This technique may be used to track humans, objects, or even herbs. However, when tracking an herb or poison, the user can only track an herb or poison of the same rank of as their current level of this technique. The user can only track an herb they have encountered in the past. The user must have encountered either a poison itself or the components making it up in the past in order to track it. This technique increases the user’s chance of finding an herb by five percent. This amount increases by a further five percent at each rank, so an S rank user has their chance of finding an herb increased by twenty five percent. The user can track an opponent over various terrains, including grassland, hard earth, and undisturbed snow and sand, and still water. When tracking another human being, the user has a thirty percent chance of catching a scent while in the same region, or a ten percent chance while in an adjacent region. A user must have at least one post between each post asking for a scent roll. This percentage increases by ten at each rank, so the S ranked version of the technique allows the user a seventy and fifty percent chance, respectively. Once a scent is successfully caught, and the user is in the same region as the tracked victim, the user has a twenty percent chance of finding them. This percentage increases by ten for each rank of this technique learned, so the S ranked version offers a sixty percent chance.
Limit: Must have at least fifty training points with animal companion beyond Control, Teamwork, Understanding, and Friendship

The kunai pierces the wallet without an issue. Upon further inspection you are able to tell that the katana is a wooden one, but the piece of paper that could be seen on it when he first entered the room was an exploding tag. Whether or not it's active is unknown. If you check the wallet and open it, you will see a picture of him with a woman and a small female child. Other than that, the wallet is mostly empty, aside from the 100 Ryo that's inside.

The male on your shoulder slouches off as he begins to stand on his own. His groggy nature is apparent as he isn't quite speaking yet, and seems a bit zoned out still. It is still a little too early to get anything out of him. Perhaps after it passes him.

---

Hirama and the summon reach the doorway where Kitsune had entered a while ago and battled the man with the katana and wallet. It is rather apparent that she isn't going to fit through the door frame. What is she to do now? The enemies will arrive at this point in a few seconds [next post].
