[E] Kyo Maeda - 1

(Yeahh, it’s kinda broken haha. I’ll just stop using it for now, and I’ll fix his profile after the exam’s over since Tie said editing it during this is bad)

Kyo tensed when he realized that he had actually just killed two people, not having really been thinking about it as he got caught up in the moment. But he didn’t have time to panic at the moment, quickly shaking it off as he kept his mind preoccupied with the most important task at the moment, which was survival. It was strange how the tendrils had been able to pierce the carriage to kill the two men, but they couldn’t stab through the bottom to anchor in the ground. Not that he had the time to question it, as the horses panicked and the carriage overturned.

Keeping his technique active, the tendril that had wrapped around him to help protect from debris was now keeping him in place like a seatbelt as his cage moved all about. The nine other tendrils were still pushing against the walls, keeping the one suspending him in the middle still as he held onto it tightly as well. Everything was happening so fast, the carriage twisting and turning and sliding before it suddenly jerked as it hit water. His heart was pounding away in his chest and he acted quickly, turning off his goggles and taking them off and putting them into a pouch in his vest because he knew that they didn’t work underwater. Then he rammed a couple of tendrils between some dented bars and pried them apart while the vessel filled with water, figuring they’d be strong enough to do that much since he was focusing on a weak spot and had already been able to do this much damage to the carriage.

At the moment he was glad the carriage had landed on its side and not upside-down, as it meant he could climb out of the opening against the current of the water rushing in to meet him. Kyo took a large breath of air in the air pocket that remained inside of the carriage before he went underwater, dismissing his tendrils soon as he was out so the glowing wouldn’t attract more attention. The shinobi remained underwater for as long as possible, swimming along with the current. He wanted them to think he was still trapped within the wreckage, and with how dark it was out he was hoping they wouldn’t be able to see him in the water.

It wasn’t until he needed air that he finally popped up, gasping for breath as he swam over to the side of the river and climbed onto the riverbank. Thankfully it wasn’t a fast paced river, so he was able to get out easily enough. He panted heavily and coughed out some water that managed to get into his lungs as he looked around, for the first time his blue eyes unfiltered by his tinted goggles since he started the exam.

SPOILER: Click to show

Gavinha Lithocarpus- sustained and then canceled
Rank: A
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows one to make the tendrils of a Halo solid.
Special: ---
Drawback: During this no other jutsu can be done with the Halo. If the Halo is near the user he has a big chance the tendrils will hit them too on their way towards the opponent.
Description: Placing one’s hand on it, and sending a powerful surge of chakra through it, one allows all tendrils of one Halo to become tangible, which allows them not only to bash into objects with enough force to break a tree, but also to throw things like rocks, trees and even the opponent. These tendrils posses monsterous strength, and can only be destroyed when hit by one S-ranked or two A-ranked Jutsu.
Limit: Must have the Seiðr Halo and Chakra Gavinha activated.

Water rushed into the cart, but you managed to push yourself out before the stream became too large to fight against. The water was ice cold and murky, soaking you to the bone in a matter of seconds. The direction you swam was the one with the stream, the river flowed so fast that swimming against it would probably have brought you almost nowhere. It was hard to hold your breath for long as the freezing temperature would feel as if it was stinging you straight into the heart. As you resurfaced, grasping for breath you could hear the screams and yells of the officers running on both river banks. They were behind, but quickly catching up. However, this was the first time you actually looked directly upwards. Above you hovered a tiny thing. It was the tiniest puppet you had ever seen, being only a few centimeters long. Its translucent wings flapped quickly and completely silent as it hovered above you, visible in the faint moonlight. It was a simple thing, apparently having nothing but the small wings and the best sensor system that could fit on the small thing. One of the officers behind you yelled. ”I’ve got a visual, I can’t see if he’s dead or alive!” They were still thirty five meters away from you, but that wouldn’t last forever.

Just then, over the intercom, the voice of the main examiner spoke out once more.

"Attention participants. Axel Inuzuka of Waterfall, Rosalie Salt of Waterfall, and Raika Hebiarashi of Cloud have all forfeited their exam. Umei Maki of Sound has committed suicide. And..."

But before the thought could be finished, the sound of an explosion was heard.

"What are you doing?! You are contaminating my experiments!" Yelled the registrar. But what followed next was the sound of flames and his screams as he was burned alive. Silence followed the screams for a short time before everything around each and every participant disappeared, leaving them in darkness.

"We wondered where you had all been directed. My name is Mai Turino, and I am the actual Chuunin Exam Proctor. For those who are still here, my sincerest apologies for the miscommunication. The Land of Frost was not the destination of the exams, and when no one arrived, we knew something was wrong. Bear with me one moment, and I'll bring you back to the main room." Said a woman's voice.

A few silent moments passed before the darkness turned to light, and everyone found themselves in the main room, without the items given to them at the start of the exam, and completely unharmed.

[You may now post your exit here and your entrance into the registration room again. IIC enabled. 3 days until I make my next post, or until everyone has posted. Examiners, you have your PMs that I should be getting back from you. Time to move the exams to the next stage.]

Kyo had already started formulating a new plan when he broke the water’s surface and saw the little fly-like camera and heard someone yelling about having sight on him. Quickly he swam to the river bank and climbed out, reaching to his belt to pull out a smoke grenade to mask the puppet’s view on him and then run away. Actually, he had been thinking more along the lines of using a substitution so they wouldn’t have a very good read on which direction he was going, but before he had the chance to put any of his thoughts in action he heard an announcement again.

At first it seemed standard, the same man announcing more people who dropped out and another suicide. His movement paused when he heard the commotion, tensing as he kept an eye on the cops just in case they made any more offensive maneuvers while he was distracted by the new woman’s voice. It was very confusing and he didn’t understand right away, and his eyes went wide when he felt the strange sensation of being sent back to the main room.
