Olpotrex: Part 1 [Event]

[Flower]

[OOC: I will post here tomorrow. Sorry for the delay guys.]

[Flower]

Everything was happening so fast that ninjutsu users would find themselves at an incredible disadvantage. While they would have enough time to stop the second string of boulders erupting from the ground, the first giant boulder would fly through the air without anything to stop it. That is, except for the sand that was being flung through the air. Unfortunately, however, without any specific chakra shaping the sand, it would not be able to hold the entire impact of the giant rock. Luckily, Jenzo would jump from the platform and shatter the boulder, leaving the other shinobi safe.

Now with the rocks secured, the ninja would find themselves staring at a hole in the ground that was being to shake. Over the course of two seconds, the ground began to crack more and more. These two seconds would give the ninja time to prepare, but little other than that, because as soon as the two seconds were over the earth would begin to move upward. Something was coming out of the hole.

The force was so intense that the wooden platform, and all the surrounding area, would begin to be pushed backwards. In an instant, something strange would protrude from the ground. It would smash through the earth like a powerful rod, and it looked very similar. The object was grey and was thick at its base, becoming skinnier toward the top. The base was about ten feet in width and the top was about six feet. Overall, the rod rose up into the air for a total of nine feet. Something was strange about the rod, however. There appeared to be a spike at the end, and the material was not normal.

As the rod shifted out of the ground, the ninja would find more attacks forthcoming. Something would rise out of the ground around the rod, creatures made from the earth that were about a foot and a half tall. There were fifteen of them in total, and they all appeared to be focusing on the shinobi. They lined up in front of the rod like an army before jumping forward. All fifteen would jump forward toward the platform, crossing the 20 meter distance very quickly. Each ninja would find three of the minions on them at one time, while three would also stay back to watch and prepare themselves. If the minions did succeed in clinging to any of them, then they would progress to quickly smash their heads into the opponent, bruising and breaking bones.

The major problem, however, was not the minions, but the fact that the rod was still shaking.

Rain came down fast, causing the earth to form actual puddles.

Earthy Minions
Rank: C, B, A
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: User creates a swarm of minions molded from their ground. The minions are approximately 1.5 feet tall, and rather thin. Each possesses stick like arms and legs, with a wispy antenna placed atop their head. This antenna is distorted over time, and begins to unfurl upon creation. A bulbous pod is created at the top of the at the top of the antenna, and slowly morphs into petal like extensions. This process is complete on the second last post of their lifespan, signaling their imminent demise.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: Will only remain active for a short time.
Description: After completing the necessary seals, the user will make an uplifting gesture and small minion will be forced from the soil. At C rank, the user may pull six from the ground. At B rank, 15 minions, and at A rank 30 minions may be pulled from the ground. The minions are all separate, yet pulled in a chain. This means that with only one pull motion, the user can pull out all minions at once. Naturally, they all will have somewhat of an intelligence, attacking the designated enemy by hurling themselves bodily at the foe. They may either just ram into the enemy with their hard heads, or they may cling and proceed to slam their heads repeatedly while clinging. In larger numbers, it is possible for the enemy to become overwhelmed, covered in the minions where bones are broken. Internal hemorrhaging will lead to death if victim does not detach themselves from the little beasties. Each can withstand a C rank hit before crumbling, will remain solid for 3 posts for C-rank, 4 posts for B-rank, and 5 posts for A-rank, if not attacked.
Limit: Earth release.

(OOC: Sorry for my absence everybody, been feeling really ill the past few days.)

Kaius witnessed an incredible feat of strength before him, smashing a boulder that large with just impact alone was astonishing. He looked to the group member that had done this quickly, but was forced to turn back when the ground started to shake violently again. 'Rocks, more boulders?' thought the young shinobi as he stared down at the hole in the earth. Then, the earth began to move upward in some erupting motion. At this point Kaius knew that something was trying to make its way out of the hole, boulders or some form of creature. As the platform was shoved back away from the hole the raven haired shinobi would wobble a bit then get his balance back.

Kai had to keep his jaw from dropping at what he witnessed next. A giant rod started to come out from the hole. It was weird in every way, its shape, size and even what it was made out of. What exactly was it? That was the question that ran through the boys mind. This was when he noticed the earth creatures coming out from the hole too. Kaius had a lot of questions running through his head on what exactly was going on here, but he had no time to draw to a conclusion as the earth creatures leaped towards the platform. He didn't even know if the creatures possessed a chakra network, as they were made of earth he assumed they did not. It was too bad, Kai did not know much other than genjutsu.

Kai unsheathed the claws hidden under his sleeves and analyzed the situation. Three minions for each shinobi, they seemed well coordinated which led to the question of if they were just randomly attacking or not. The first earth creature to charge at Kai was trying to cling onto him, Kai was not going to let this happen. The young shinobi leaped from the platform before the minions reached him whilst arcing his feet, he threw his side arm weapons out in front of him causing him to spin like a tornado towards one of the earth minions.

Just before they would make contact he would slam one foot into the ground and leap to the side. This would hopefully allow him to leap at all three of the tiny minions from different angles, hoping to strike each of them at least once. Kai would be leaping from both the platform and the earth below it whilst doing this. When he was done with this he would make one final leap back onto the platform. Should any of the minions be left he would be too tired from the strain of using such an advanced technique to help himself and would kneel on the ground to catch his breath.

[Ranzu]

His sand was able to block the smaller boulders, thanks to the help from Ikarus's sand hand though they seem to be unable to block the giant boulder in time. Luckily, it seemed that one of the gathered shinobi knew how to solve that problem quite handily, smashing the boulder out of the air. The show of power, plus the support of another sand user, almost lead Zeki into a false sense of security...almost, until the tower started to rise.

Zeki calmly watched the towering spire rise into the air, bitterly remarking "There went the plan to ambush it." as the spire rose. This was not in his calculations, but at least it relieved him from the fear that this was a set-up for a ambush by other shinobi. Of course that fear was not completely unjustified as a sudden commotion at the bottom the spire alerted him to the spawning of earthly minions.

Zeki looked around at the ninja gathered around him, taking stock of the others. One was clearly able to handle himself and more, as evidenced by the pieces of rubble around the group, but the others seem to be on the weaker side of the strength scale like himself. That, and unlike him, they were made of weak flesh and bone that were prone to breaking so easily. Zeki turned back to the minions that were rapidly approaching now in a ordered formation who now seemed like a much larger threat than when he first spotted them.

Couple that to the rain now pouring down upon him and the surrounding area and Zeki was in trouble. Still a team was a team, so he performs a few handseals and as he finishes his handseals fifteen sand senbon shoot out of the few patches of dry sand towards the incoming trio of minions, five for each minion.

Contingency plan: If another person of the team is in need of help with a minion or two, Zeki would perform a few more handsigns before holding his hand in a "gun" style while pointing his index and middle fingers at the intended target minion(s) after which two "bullets" of sand would shoot off of his finger tips towards the minion.

[Ikarus™]

Pebbles scattered through the air as the large boulder hurling towards the group of ninja was smashed by a simple knee. The man who had accomplished this feat did it with such ease that it was almost scary. After the large boulder was destroyed, an onslaught of smaller rocks also flew through the air towards them, also easily batted away by the group. It seemed as though the action was starting, and I was beginning to grow excited.

The sigh of relief emanating from my pursed lips was quickly cast away as a crackling could be heard coming from the edge of the cliff. The platform was beginning to push back now, and as I continued my observation one of the ninja staggered for a brief moment before regaining composure. I was a bit taken aback by this sudden movement, and was even further surprised by what occurred next. A large rod of sorts began to protrude out of the earth, in a position that was visible to all of us. What I found weird, though, was that the tip of it was a peculiar material, almost unnatural.

My gaze shifted from the rod rapidly however, as a new threat appeared. From a small cloud of dust came small figures, which wouldn't have been so scary if they weren't moving so quickly. I began to explore all of my options and in less than a second was weaving handseals for a useful ninjutsu. If I had time as the seals were completed, I would use sand from the ground if there was still some available, or from my gourd if not, to create a cloud under my feet to make me hover. I would ascend as quickly as possible, attempting to bat away whatever of the three creatures came at me.

I would kick at them to the best of my ability while maintaining balance, hoping that my shield of sand would suffice in my defense if I was in immediate danger. If they grew too close for comfort, though, in their greater numbers, I would swiftly reach into my bag and pull out a kunai in each hand to aid in fending them off.

[jenzo]

Jenzo had a stern look upon his face as he descended back to the earth. It had seemed he miss calculated his own strength to change the trajectory of the boulder. Instead his brute force demolished the slab of earth hurled at them. Still the results were the same, his goal to protect the younger members in his group succeed and it was good enough for him. As soon as his feet touched the ground he was unwelcome by the earth he left with a vicious shake. He kept his gaze at the foul hole that began to shake and break. Quickly he moved to the front of the party to gain his place for any more frontal assaults. As he reclaimed his position, he continued to watch the hole before him spew something from it's bowels. An object shaped like a rod appeared from the gap in the earth, it's appearance was strange looking and the material it was crafted out of was like nothing he had seen before. This made made him a bit concern off what that objects purpose was for. However, the object did strike his curiosity a bit as a man of science. He wanted to reach out to the object to 'feel' it's surface, to discover it's origin, and possible dissect it for further research.

His curiosity quickly subsided when he saw constructs rise out from the ground with it. 'Abominations', he thought to himself as he saw the golems leap across the plane and onto the platform only to line up in front of the obelisk in a defense position. Clearly there goal was to protect the spire from the group of shinobi's. But, what was the purpose of the obelisk before them? There were to many unknown factors in play right now and without knowing the unknown. This mission was becoming more dangerous by the second, which made him concern for the well being of the group.

The man gritted his teeth as twelve of the golem's rushed the group braking off into three man teams to attack each member. He had to admit this little thing's were fast, but not fast enough to catch him off guard. As soon as they came within arms length, he would quickly drop to a knee collapsing both hands into a fist and slam them into the ground. The earth would erupt in a flurry of rock and gravel upwards towards the minions, his attack would undoubtedly shatter the creatures or at best send them packing. And because of the man's strength the fury of rock's and gravel would travel 35 meters and 7 meters wide. It was more then enough to strike the projectiles of earth. His intend target wasn't the golem's crafted of earth, but the obelisk itself. If their goal was to protect that spire, then it would be safe to assume it was of great importance to the party behind these event's.

After his assault his vision would quickly peer off to the rest of the group. His attack would have only caught his assailants in the blast and not the others since they broke formation to go after the other members. He would quickly assess the situation and evaluate his comrades status. If any of them were overcome by their opponents, he would quickly give his aid. He'll quickly pivot half way around, trying not to brake his contact from the front encase of more attacks. He will quickly raise his hand pointing his index and middle finger towards the enemy that threaten his companions. Almost like a gun, balls of fire will shoot out from his finger tips and strike his companions adversary. The balls of fire that he would shoot out to his opponents were about the size of human's fist. However, this action would only happen if someone need help fending for themselves.

[:::Ooc:::] I'll be taking leave in five days to go home. I don't know how my activate will be without internet I can reliable access. Also, I haven't been home for three and half years and never really taken a break from work to enjoy myself. So if I don't notify you on how my active will be on Nov 18 it means I don't have any connections. Sorry for the inconvenience guys, holidays and all.

[OOC: No worries, Jenzo. The holidays are tough for us all, and in recognition of that I will extend the OOC time to 5 days until the new year. If you need more time than that, please message me personally and I'll see what I can do. I would prefer that we still try to post as quickly as possible, however, and only take advantage of the extra time if you need it.]

The shinobi are certainly living up to their names, a man would think to himself, and it was true. So much was happening at once, movement by the minions and the rod, the fact that they could stand to fight at all was impressive. Then again, no one said that crushing the landscape was going to be easy.

Kaius would easily dismantle the minions, but at the cost of using up a high amount of energy. Meanwhile, one of the other lads would take to the sky...barely having the time to form the handsigns to make it. Zeki Sadojin would also form his handsigns in time, barely, but the senbon would not do much damage. Luckily, two of us minions were caught in the wreckage caused by Jenzo, and 15 senbon was enough to take down the last one. Jenzo, finally, was left completely unhurt. The three minion headed for Ikarus would be eliminated by the shinobi's contingency plans, and the three extra guards were eliminated thanks to Jenzo.

The rod itself, however, was untouched by the complete assault of rock that was left. It was if it had never been touched, except for the dust that formed around it. Everything became very quiet for a second then, but only a second. Soon enough something would emerge from the ground, directly beside the rod. It was a head, but clearly covered in armor, which emerged. It did not appear that the person was injured by Jenzo's assault on the earth, meaning he must have been pretty deep.

"Hello Shinobi, I would ask that, for your honor, you stop attacking for a moment. Attacks on a man who is talking is very dishonorable, and I would hate to think you that." The voice behind the mask was deep and broken, like it was from another world. "My name is Nun'cor, and I'd love to speak for a second."

If the ninja did stop their assault, then they would have a chance to speak. Meanwhile, however, Nun'cor would be preparing certain jutsus below the ground in case they did attack him or make any movements.

Kaius let off a sigh of relief as he realized that all the enemies had been dealt with, had this not been so they would have had a rough time. The boy staggered to his feet, catching a few more sips of air as he did so. He had to admit it, they were lucky that they had that monstrously strong man on their team. Had it not been for him they would still be fighting the little earth creatures. Kai stared directly at the rod, so many questions that just had to be answered. If only he had the person to ask them to. The rod, despite the fight they just had, was perfectly intact.

Then something else caught his eye, it looked like a sphere at first emerging from the ground. 'Another enemy?' thought the young shinobi, and thinking as such he took up the mantis stance just in case. Kai was puzzled as to what it exactly was, or how it just seemed to float above the surface of the earth. The boy was even more puzzled when it turned out to be what looked like the head of something. The humanoid like creature actually began to speak to them, in a language they could understand too. The raven haired shinobi listened to the creature, its voice was other worldly. He was not expecting it, that was for sure, but they had been asked to just listen to what 'it' had to say. Kai loosened up and returned to a normal stance, figuring that the creature could not do anything immediate from this distance anyway.

He assumed that it did not have a gender, but only because of what had happened leading up to this point. It did, however, have a name. Nun'cor, a name that Kai would be sure to keep note of. The young shinobi really wanted to ask what was going on, but he remained quiet. Although he was fine with listening to what Nun'cor had to say he was not sure about the rest of the group. The boy would look around to see everybodys decision on the matter before concluding his own.

[Ikarus™]

Watching as the last of the enemies were shattered, I began to grow weary of the column protruding from the earth. I was grateful for the help of the other ninja, though I was never the type to really show appreciation. I was relieved that the opponents had been defeated, but was skeptical all the same by the rod before me, and especially by the tip.

My wandering thoughts were put to rest as movement began next to the rod, as my hands holding the kunai sat ready for action. What happened next really began to confuse me, as a head, covered by a gleaming metal helm jutted out of the ground next to the pillar. The face looked somewhat flat, and the helm extended backwards. I had a good view from the position I was in. It was not long before my personal questions running rampant through my head were thwarted again, as the humanoid began to speak.

"Hello Shinobi, I would ask that, for your honor, you stop attacking for a moment. Attacks on a man who is talking is very dishonorable, and I would hate to think you that." it said, in a deep, hoarse voice. "My name is Nun'cor, and I'd love to speak for a second." it continued. I was skeptical, but with my given altitude, and curiosity, I stood by in order to hear what it had to say, all the while staying prepared for battle.

[jenzo]

Jenzo was quite pleased with the quick annihilation of their earthen adversaries, also relieved that nobody was seriously injured from the assault. He quickly overlooked his companion once again before turning his sights back to the obelisk, he noticed Kaius was a bit winded from the series of attacks he performed and was staggering a bit, it wasn't a good sign. There mission had only just begun and already some of the members were being worn down from the obstacles laid down before them. It became impudently clear to him, that he could no longer pull his punches and when the time comes he would need to go all out to ensure the groups safety.

He gritted with disguised as his attention was focused on the obelisk. It seemed his attack didn't faze the monument, except for the eerie dust cloud the now loomed over it. This made the man curious on what the spire was constructed from. Obviously it was crafted from harder material then earth which made the man a bit concern for it's true purpose. Once again his mind began to race, coming up with possibilities and variables. Taking in the previous elements he learned, he quickly concluded that this structure did hold key role in his opponents plans, but what? The rumbling of the earth could have come from this large obelisk ascending from the earth. But what for? It was obviously made to take a beaten, but from what? Rising from the earth or something else? That's when he made a hypothesis, could they have constructed this obelisk in the the land of Ame to be a conduit for the elements this country known for. To be used as a lightning rod to accumulate the power of nature? However, for what purpose would they need such a device to accumulate such power? There were still variables missing to this equation before he could solve this problem. That was until a glimmer of hope appeared from the earth beside the struct.

He watched intently as someones head started to emerge from the earth, water trickled down his face treating to suffocate his vision. He feared to wipe away the water from his eyes, as if doing so would scare the man back into the earth from where he came. Instead he watched silently, not moving a muscle as the man slowly emerged from the ground. It wasn't till he spoke the he made a move, ”Hello Shinobi, I would ask that, for your honor, you stop attacking for a moment. Attacks on a man who is talking is very dishonorable, and I would hate to think you that."

[/i] Jenzo shot up with a brow raised to the man's request. It seemed that he was trying to play off their decency for not attacking him before he had a chance to speak. Clearly this man was a fool to ask such a strange request since he attacked them first. Jenzo's hand balled tightly into a fist cracking his knuckles. It seemed the man's words enraged the Sannin enough to forget his morale ground and rip the man's head off. Still, he forced his rage to subside as he continued to listen to the man speak, "My name is Nun'cor, and I'd love to speak for a second."

Jenzo took a deep breath as he knew what was going to happen next. The man would rise from the earth to indulge the group of his evil sinister plans in a long enduring monolog. Something Jenzo has grown accustom to over the years dealing with warlords, cults, prophets, and self proclaim gods. Most of the time he was pretty good at guessing what they were going to say, but he was a bit stumped on the purpose of the obelisk. ”Fine. Speak your place Nun'cor and allow us the same decency we show you” He spoke with a firm voice as his gaze burned into the helm of the man, ”But know this. If your attempt at a parley is only being used to gain the upper hand in combat I will make you regret your decision as I'll personally shatter your skull and place you back into the earth from once you came.” Their was no bestselling his rage and hatred for the man, his eyes burned with a hateful passion for the man. If anyone knew who he was they would know he wasn't a man to try to cross. Doing so would mean forfeiting their lives.

Though find the situation a bit frustrating, he turned his head to the side to peer back at his companions, ”I bet a thousand Ryo he's from a cult trying to raise his fallen god” He tried to saying with a low tone, trying to conceal the bet from Nun'cor. [/font][/blockquote]

Like good pets you quiet down, Nun'cor thought to himself, and he looked over the group. Clearly the one who had been using mostly taijutsu thus far was their leader. He spoke up without hesitancy and proclaimed a rather serious threat. Nun'cor would show no reaction to the statement, however, and his head would continue to stretch just above the ground.

"Oh I see," Nun'cor said aloud, "You must be the leader then. Let me tell you this, Leader, you might regretting coming too close if you really would smash my skull. You may be quite skilled with breaking rocks, but how will you ferret against... Oh nevermind it, I'm talking too much. Essentially, here is the gist of what I wanted to say: You all have something we want. In fact, you are standing on it. I'm inviting you to move back and save yourselves the trouble of war." Just then the ground would begin to shake, softly at first and becoming slightly more rigorous.

Nun'cor would then make a motion of his head toward the rod. "Things aren't always what they appear to be."

Moving his body slightly further above the surface, so that his shoulders were above ground, Nun'cor looked at the shinobi and said, "So, what say you all?" All the time, Nun'cor had been prepping his back-up techniques below ground as a defense in case of attack. Anyone with the ability to see chakra would be able to decipher his attack, but all others would not be able to notice.

[OOC: If you have the ability to see chakra, please message me and I'll describe what you see.]

Kai listened as Nun'cor spoke to them, more specifically the person who had shown themselves to be the strongest of the group. 'Just saying that he could break rocks is a complete understatement' Kai thought to himself. The man broke a huge boulder in a mid-air collision, it was something that the raven haired boy only wished he could do. As the mysterious human like figure ran their mouth, almost giving away a crucial piece of information, Kai's ears sharpened for one thing in particular. It was something that he felt to be extremely insulting, especially after he had come all the way there to deal with the problem. He was basically telling the group to back down.

Kai stopped taking in deep breaths of air and returned to his usual breathing patterns, he did so whilst clenching his fist in anger. Backing down because he lacked strength was something Kai never wanted to experience again. He thought back to what happened on his first mission that was personally given to him, how he failed because he lacked the strength to do so. How his entire team ended up missing or dead. It was a painful memory to remember, he could not complete the task that was at hand because he was weak. Kai tried to push the memories to the back of his head, but he couldn't realizing what could happen here.

It wasn't just the agonizing feeling of failing another assignment, or not having enough strength to fight back. Considering the huge tremors that keep occurring because of that 'thing' Kai had a gut feeling innocent lives could be at risk. If the rod kept shaking the way it did it could cause an earthquake. Kai knew this and that was why he had came to the decision to not back down. Even with this in mind he had to remember that it wasn't just his decision. His entire group had to make their minds up too. Kaius had definitely made his mind up to stay regardless and would make his dicision anonymous, awaiting the decisions of his comrades.
