Draven vs Kaius

What exactly was I meant to be doing here? This was the question that Kai had been asking himself for the past hour now. If it wouldn't have been for his zero sense of direction he would have made it back to Sunagakure by now, he would be continuing with his daily work like he always did. As much as he always loved the idea of being sent outside his village gates being stuck in the middle of no where was much worse. All the hidden wild desert life, about half of the things found in the Land of Wind were poisonous. He was lucky to stumble upon the ruined village, even if the well was dried up it still provided much needed shade and rest.

Who knows where his luck had ran off to.

From the looks of things a sandstorm had roamed by the place, everything was buried beneath the sand. Kai had no doubt in his mind that if he were to dig deep enough he would find bodies under the very ground he sat on. Right now he was wearing his usual clothes. A white hoodie which reflected the most part of the suns rays, his orange tank top beneath this. He was also wearing light grey cargo trousers with white sneakers, he could feel the sand shuffling around in his white socks too.

His claws were hidden beneath the long sleeves of his hoodie, barely noticable lumps along his forearms would indicate the presence of the twin weapons. His headband was unintentionally concealed around his neck, layered behind the hoodie. To go with this rather plain attire he had a butt bag which contained various combat gear.

Combat gear such as the 10 kunai, and the 2 combat knives he always kept on him. He had 30 hira-shuriken, 16 makibishi and a stun grenade with him also. Whilst traveling he seemed to have lost his world map along with a few other things that were once stored safely in this container, maybe he was pickpocketed in one of the many desert villages he crossed to get here? It was unlikely, but was possible. There was nothing more Kai wanted than his map right now, he would gladly trade in all of his combat gear for it back. The stuff was useless in a situation like this anyway, he shrugged as the thought passed his mind.

Definitely useless, the last thing Kai wanted right now was to encounter anybody out here. He was in a perticulary foul mood.

[Draven]

If Kai was not blind he would have most likely seen an odd thing in the distance. Perhaps a mirage, perhaps not. It was, well, it was a body laying on the ground, 100 meters straight from Kai's location... This was Draven, and he looked dead...

The image of Draven would appear as if fading in and out of reality. Though it was more like a flicker. The total visage of this image would seem to distort at the edges, perhaps unfocused. It was as if someone with a poor Genjutsu skill had produced an inferior illusion...or perhaps it was just the trick of the sun against this dessert like terrain. Either way this man Draven was laying face up on this terrain. This terrain would be flat for a good 30 meters around him, as if this was once the town gathering spot. The hovels that scattered the area would be covering the area around this, with the road that perhaps Kai was standing on leading to this possible gathering spot, or perhaps not... Beyond 500 meters from Draven's location would be the towering shear cliff hills that would close this ancient town off from the rest of the world.

A few things to note from this body that was laying on the ground, this Draven, this possible Genjutsu, or perhaps trick of the sun, or whatever. It was that the only clothing he had on was the pants he wore. Though that wasn't all one would notice. They could see a 2 filter design gas mask hanging round his neck with 2 type E gas filters installed. There was also a buttbag attached to his pants hanging on the pants to the bodies left side. Within this buttbag where 9 soldier pills, a compass, and perhaps the most notable item...a map...This map of course would be viewable as it was partly hanging out of the buttbag. The body had a few tattoos on it. One the upper center of the chest was a crow with a wingspan of 1 foot and a height of half a foot. There was also a flock of crows tattoo on the mans right arm, running from the shoulder all the way down to the top of that hand, each crow measuring an inch in wingspan and half an inch in height. The man laying there looked dead of course, arms spread straight out to the sides, legs spread apart, and the mans eyes closed....

Throwing rocks sure got boring after awhile. How many had Kai thrown by now? The answer he could not tell you. The shinobi would ready himself to throw another rock, picking yet another from the rubble littered ground. He aimed it as far away as possible from his location, with no particular target in mind. As he lifted his arm up ready to throw this rock he would notice something out of the ordinary way out in the distance.

It was vague, a black figure that Kai could barely make out from the heat waves radiating from the sands. It stood out so easily, however, due to the light colored sand that surrounded it. Kai would put down the rock he was about to throw and stood up, dusting off the sand that had gathered on his lap. In turn he would then shield his eyes from the sun so that he could get a better glimpse at this mysterious object, leaning his body forwards to get a clearer view. From a distance of one hundred meters it was difficult to make out just about anything but the sand.

He leaned forward... then more forward... then eventually decided to just go over there and see what it was.

Casually he would walk forth, taking casual steps with his hands linked behind his head. His elbows high up in the air. Once he had moved about twenty meters he would make out this object with a lot more of a clearer view.

It looked like a dead body.

He would stop for a moment in shock. Then would begin rushing forward towards this body upon realizing that they could still be alive. It was a very small chance but if this person was alive then perhaps they could tell him where he was exactly. His steady jog transformed in to a full on sprint, eager to reach this person as soon as possible.

His pace would slow down as he arrived at his destination. It was strange, the entire area around him was perfectly flat. The thought of a busy town square passed through Kai's head. 'That was probably what this place once was...' he would silently believe as the body was now just a few meters away from where he was. As he approached the body he noticed something odd placed next to it, Kai zoomed in his vision for a closer look.

Wait a second... "A map!".

Bursting with joy Kai would begin a sprint for the body, but would stop dead in his tracks about five meters away from the corpse.

It was all too convenient. A body placed perfectly out in the sun like this, the map that was placed out in plain sight, it just didn't feel right. As Kai examined his body his suspicions grew deeper. On the body was two gas masks, and when he looked closer the map was hanging out from a butt bag. Kai knew full well that the both of these were equipment most likely to be worn by shinobi. Still, Kai also knew he would never find a way out of here without that map, he had to take it.

He slowly approached the body, and whilst doing so would slowly take a stun grenade out from his butt bag. Should this supposedly dead man make any sudden movements he would quickly pull the pin and throw it in his general direction, and would jump as fast as he legs could take him to get out of the explosion radius. Taking giant leaps back so that he could keep his eyes on him.

[Draven]

There was still something odd. The image of Draven would still...flicker...still seem as if it were some sort of mirage. Though the effects one would get when coming closer to a mirage should surely fade, what was going on? Perhaps this was an illusion. If Kai was not busy oogly the map perhaps Kai would notice the crow on the bodies chest would flap once, as if a living tattoo...

Thus what was going on behind the curtain of Kai's possible point of view on the situation was as such: Before all of this, Draven was watching not from afar but from atop his body, When he first Noticed Kai was when Kai had first noticed an object in the distance about 100 meters away. He had noticed Kai because he had his Minds eye activated. But he could not see Kai with this technique. So, detecting there was no covert method to Kai approaching, Draven decided to release his soul, as a scout, so that it could roam around unseen, freely, and become his eyes. Yet he only had it stand on top of his body observing Kai as the approach happened.

As Kai approached to a certain distance Draven would note the sudden increase in speed through his soul's eyes. He would watch as that increase slowed down, and this put him on edge. His soul would return to his body, and thus the trickery would commence, the play gearing up fora showdown. All this while his "mark" had been this Kai.. He had a permanent Genjutsu over his body, a Genjutsu that would make his body look as if it were a poorly constructed illusion. But that was only a set-up that he had done long ago. But, with this action to let the living tattoo on his chest flap its wings, the intended effect should amplify the thought that this body was possibly an illusion. This tattoo of course was another permanent Genjutsu placed upon him a long time ago. Thus the effect that perhaps this body was unreal, perhaps the creator of this illusion was hidden somewhere else, or whatever thoughts mite pop up, could come to fruition.

Thus Kai approached further and Draven would churn his chakra preparing... Kai would most likely have started reaching for the grenade when Draven would say a word as his eyes sparked open. "Halt" it was a command laced with chakra. If his target, Kai, had heard it that would mean his mind would have to be mentally tough to not be compelled to follow its power. He would have to have a mental fortitude of 17 or fall under the effect of standing there, as if immobilized, for one round. But yet this was only a test, to test just how strong this Kai's will was, to give Draven a gauge of how strong his Jutsus will need to be. Either way he would turn his head up and toward Kai, staring with his cold dead eyes. "I am here to give you a message." he would say, giving no indication his intentions, besides that of what was said...

As Kai took his very first step towards this body he would notice that he was bare chested, although he payed no attention to the crows marked over his body. What on earth was this person thinking when they had died? In a desert like this the sun burn alone would be enough to kill you if you did not have any clothing on. The heat radiating off of his body should have disappeared considering how close Kai was to him. Not to mention the dehydration... wait a second.

Before Kai reached for his grenade he stalled for a moment as the thought passed his mind.

If this man was out here for very long then he would have surely died from heat exhaustion, this meant that there was something more to this, otherwise his body would have been burnt to a crisp by now. It told Kai that he had not been out in the sun for very long, and he in fact would have only been laying there on the ground very recently. His suspicions raised as Kai approached the body with much more caution than he had before, he was certain in his mind that this was some kind of set up. Kai couldn't draw any conclusions as to why the heat was radiating still from this man. Even if this was a set up, the map was too tempting to resist.

As he approached the body he was pulling out his stun grenade when the mans eyes would gasp open. Kai was just about to pull the pin on his grenade when the man instructed a rather odd command, "Halt".

Who on earth did this man think he was, laying out here in the middle of no where, and now he was commanding Kai to stop in his tracks just for him?

"I'm here to give a message"... ok what?

None of this made any sense to Kai, although he had stopped just as the man had asked if only just for a moment. Here to deliver a message? Normally Kai wasn't the hot tempered kind of guy but he had just about had enough of listening to this man, to think he was actually worried about the man being dead. He definitely deserved the stun grenade, even if he really meant what he said. A simple bit of revenge for making Kai run out here in the blazing heat, besides it wasn't lethal in any way. And what kind of man delivers a message out in the middle of no where, laying face up on the sand, in a desert! If this wasn't a lie Kai would certainly be surprised.

And so the pin was pulled and the grenade was thrown, both at the same time, in a single fluid movement.

As soon as this was achieved Kai would take massive leaps back in order to get out of the explosion radius, just as he intended in the first place. He knew that this man was laying down, so in order to get out of its maximum range he would surely would have to be as quick as Kai was. Or at least use some form of jutsu to get out. Either way, if he did manage to escape, it would be letting Kai know that he was a shinobi.

Kai would make his final leap back which gave him a suitable distance away from the grenade, about sixteen meters if he would have guessed. As he was taking this final leap back he would reach in to his butt bag and grab two hira shuriken which he held in the grasps of his fingers. As fast as he had snatched them from his butt bag they were thrown at the man.

'Hold on a second... what if he actually is a civilian...'

The shinobi would stand there in hope he hadn't went on a rampage against some innocent man. It was almost as if he had just completed that entire sequence out of instinct, the same instinct that he had developed from being a shinobi.

Kai could also feel something off about this man, the blur effect that was placed around him. The more Kai thought about it the more conclusions he managed to draw out until eventually the possibility crossed his mind.

The possibility that this man was the work of a genjutsu.

On the chance that he was a shinobi and he was in fact using some form of genjutsu, Kai would ready himself in the mantis stance of the taijutsu style 'Devine Reflexes'. It was at this point that his claws would jump out of his sleeves, almost as if on command. There was little he could do but wait for a response from the man.

[Draven]

Draven had bought himself a short amount of time. Things were starting to speed up. After he had said what he had said there was a pause in consideration from Kai, though very short. This gave Draven the time needed to gather a part of his soul together and shoot it in an invisible ray type fashion right at Kai. If the ray where to hit Kai, then it would halt his attack, or in other words he would have to redo the action of pulling the pin and throwing the grenade. Lucky for Kai it was all in one fluid motion, if the pin where to be pulled first, the ray attack could have hit after that and before the throw, that could have been devastating for Kai. But alas this would only give Draven more breathing room, perhaps.

Draven would then thrust out his right arm and clutch with his hand in one fluid motion. This was his action so that the flock of crows tattoo on his arm would come to life, and not just on his skin. With this motion the whole flock would seem to jump off his arm and spray toward Kai in a flocking manner. As soon as the 30 crows would jump off his skin they would grow ten times their size to the size of normal crows. Though their is strength in numbers as hopefully his soul ray halt attack would connect. giving Draven the opportunity to let loose his swarm of crows. The crows would then target Kai's face, and the hand that the grenade was held. They would scratch, swarm, peck, against their target. If Kai's mental toughness against the shadow perception was not at 31 then Kai will surly believe this attack is real, thus suffering the effects of a swarm of crows attacking him, trying to block Kai's vision, scratching, and pecking.

Thus if Draven's plans completed he would get up and move from his position, to his left 10 meters, while producing a chain of handseals. He would continue his handseals for a tad longer then he would hope for. The total chain of handseals would have lasted for a second, and he would have uttered a word, "Stun". Weather Kai heard it or not, he would be effected by it unless Kai had a mental toughness of 25, and suffer the Stun condition for GYGZPmmI1-4 rounds.

Yet there was also another scenario. Kai somehow avoiding the ray attack and launching the grenade. This would surly hit Draven and he would be stunned (for how long again?) But fortunately even if this senario played out, at least his flow of crows tattoo would have gotten their chance to possibly interrupt Kai's grabbing for shirukens or the preparation into the stance. But in this scenario Draven would be stunned, and the crows would dissipate after their initial brunt of force.1-4

Just as Kai had intended he had pulled the pin, but as he was throwing it something stopped him almost as if he was being grabbed on to by an invisible force. This caused Kai to practically drop the grenade, in the middle of his throw, with a one meter distance between the two of them. What followed up was even more strange, as he reached in to his butt bag in the exact same place his grenade had once been, and performed this action again to exact detail. Had a jutsu been used on him to make him do this? Kai could not be certain, either way the clock was now ticking and if he didn't get out of the explosion radius soon then he would fall under the stun effect too.

As such he began taking his giant leaps back, desperate to get away from his own weapon. It had landed on the soft sand and as such had not exploded right away. As he would take his first leap back he watched as the man before him launched out his arm in Kai's direction.

'What now!' Kai panicked to himself.

As the man clenched his hand in to a fist a flock of crows would come to life, quite quickly they would burst forth from the skin on his arm and begin to hunt Kai down. They hunted Kai down like blood hounds of the sky, tracing his every movement to follow him. As Kai just about managed to reach the outside of his grenades area of effect they would catch up to him, causing the shinobi to trip over the desert sand. To shield his eyes from the painful pecking and bites that the crows would assault him with. Kai was certain he had only just made it out of his grenades radius, and now he was being attacked by birds?

The black feathers of these crows would block his vision for just a moment before a loud boom could be heard off in the direction Kai had once been.

Almost as soon as the sound was let off the crows around Kai would vanish, almost as if they never existed. Although the crows gave off a feeling as if they weren't real Kai felt as if they must have been, a ninjutsu of some sort was the quick conclusion that Kai would draw out from this attack. It also let Kai know that he was in fact a shinobi, and a hostile one at that.

If ninjutsu was the game that this shinobi was playing then Kai was happy to respond. As fast as Kai could he would stumble to his feet and begin running back in the direction he had came from, all whilst taking a massive gasp of air in to his lungs. This air would mix with his chakra, and would combine to form a solid shape of an arrow in his throat.

He would then exhale this arrow made entirely of wind and chakra in the direction of his opponent, approximately seven meters away from the location he was at.

If this arrow hit or not it was merely a distraction, Kai specialized mainly in taijutsu and he planned to use this to his advantage. After that attack from the flock of crows, however, Kai did not feel fit enough for try for any of his more advanced techniques.

He would remain sprinting towards his opponent at his fullest speed.

Description: A stun grenade, also known as a flash-bang, is a non-lethal weapon. These grenades are used to temporally neutralize the combat effectiveness of enemies by usually disorienting their senses. When making contact it releases a flash of light that momentarily activates all light sensitive cells in the eye, making vision impossible for approximately 5 seconds until the eye restores itself to its normal, un-stimulated state. The incredibly loud blast produced by the grenade adds to its incapacitating properties by disturbing the fluid in the ear which also lasts approximately 5 seconds until the ear restores itself to its normal, un-stimulated state. The flash bang has a radius damage of 15 meters. It takes 6 seconds before it explodes.
Limit: These types of items may be capable of being bought inside any Weapon Shop.
Cost: 1,500 Ryo Each

This technique is used for short range to steer an opponent away from the user.
Limit: Must have the Wind Release.

[Draven]

It would take less than a second for the flock of crows to have flown from his arm, since this only took one of Draven's movements, and that would only take a fraction of a second. But his next action would have been interrupted, or rather he would have aborted preforming the stun technique. The reason was he noticed the pin from the grenade was pulled and had been dropped. In this scenario he was only sitting up about to get to his feet. He would see that there wasn't enough time to avoid the grenade, so rather than trying to avoid he would prepare for future events.

Draven had enough time before the grenade popped off to preform a second(time) long chain of handseals. The sky would thus darken as if night had come early and abruptly. This would happen when the grenade made its terrible sound, the night opening like a rift against its blue background. This night sky would encompass a mile radius from the ground that he had just touched. Anyone within this radius would suffer under its effects of a night time environment, as long as their mental toughness was bellow 31. But still that grenade...

Draven was hit, he would be blinded, in fact he was within the damage radius so his ear would bleed, his mind a fog, and a technique by Kai would be preformed. A direct hit to Draven's chest with a wind arrow of sorts. In fact it would have pierced his heart. Draven would fall back to his original fallen dead position. This time he would most definitely appear dead. Though in reality he could survive this through some sort of ability his body possessed. He would also, at this time, develop a natural resistance to damage to the tune of 100 points. Thus for a moment Draven would look dead.

Yet Draven was a zombie in almost all aspects. For the rest of this round the wound would already start closing. His heart did not need to be completely regenerated so the healing would take a very short time. In fact close to the beginning of the next round he would be ready to move once again. With the inky night sky he would be at the advantage, but how, his opponent would just need to find out. That is if Kai would even realize what was going on.

[Deleted]

Kai almost had reached his opponent when the arrow hit, like a lightning bolt, directly through the mans chest. This made Kai stop his pace gradually until he was standing three meters away from his enemy. It appeared to Kai that he was dead, at least that was what Kai could see. The arrow had pierced right through his heart and this would surely kill any ordinary person. Still, Kai had to just make sure that he was in fact dead and this wasn't another form of jutsu.

As such Kai would pull two hira shuriken out of his butt bag, just as he was intending to do before, and throw them aimed directly at this mans chest area. Considering he was so close to him it would certainly surprise Kai if he managed to escape, it would be a miracle considering there was now a gaping hole in his chest. The arrow had disappeared, right in to the air around them. Kai would look down on the man as he appeared to be completely, and fully, dead.

"Such a shame, it was getting so interesting too" Kai would shrug to himself, letting off a loud sigh.

It was against Kai's nature to kill people, but he would have never had expected this man to simply stay there and take his arrow to the heart. It made Kai question if he was even a shinobi. Even if the man wasn't a shinobi, he was experienced enough to be named a genin at least from what he had seen. Then Kai could feel something rather off about the atmosphere, had it got darker all of a sudden?

He looked up to the sky... and he felt his heart skip a beat in shock.

The sky, where had it gone? It was as if it was suddenly night time, but it certainly felt hot enough for it still to be the day. There was no way this was real... it had to be some kind of trick. No matter how much this thought crossed Kai's mind he couldn't think of any possible reason why, little did Kai know that his mind had been convinced so much that it was impossible to disbelieve this illusion.

He looked down to the man who was laying dead on the ground, had he caused all this? It was impossible, even for a jutsu it would be dispelled once the user was dead. Kai simply shrugged, maybe he had experienced from freak loss of time or something?

Regardless it was time to claim his prize, and he did so with a nonchalant look on his face. As he reached for the map and took it Kai would notice the slight stains of blood littered all over it, he could only hope he could still use it.

He would safely place the map back inside his butt bag and give his unnamed opponent a glance before turning around in the other direction. He would walk about five meters and would turn around again. The guilt of killing this man, even if he was a enemy, was a lot for Kai to take in.

[Draven]

Draven's image would flicker as the two Shirukens hit his body...perhaps it was all just an illusion... The Shirukens could possibly indicate otherwise as they stuck out of his chest...but that would only reinforce what was about to happen....

Draven would be hit with the shirukens, his natural temporary resistance would soak up the damage incurred, from 100 points the shirukens combined would take away 80 points. Then as Kai would look up in shock of the night sky... Draven's wound would close and his chakra would churn. He simply would disappear into the shadows, effectively going invisible. He was a shadow walker and with the function of the illusionary night sky, he was able to use this to his advantage, with the whole ground being a shadow. He would roll to his right leaving the Shirukens drop on the ground as if they had hit nothing. By the time Kai would look down, he would see....nothing besides these shirukens laying on the ground. Thus the deception came full circle, the idea that Draven was an illusion only fortified by his sudden disappearance, perhaps. Perhaps now the idea that there was a illusionist out there messing with kai could be realized, though who knows what was going on in Kai's head now. Draven wouldn't know.

What Draven did know was that he had the advantage. He would keep rolling for a few more times till he was an additional 3 meters away. He would then stand up and start a very short chain of handseals. A shadow image of Draven, one that came from the large shadow that was produced from the night sky, would appear 5 meters in front of Kai. This "Shadow Double" would start its attack and simply run at a sprint at Kai, its intent was to bulls rush or simply grapple Kai. If the Shadow Double connects, a disbelief check of 25 must be met else Kai suffer from a movement loss of -1. Weather the Shadow Double connects or not, it would dissipate after the attempted attack.

Yet while the Shadow double made its run at Kai, Draven would string together a moderately short chain of handseals. His own shadow would then break off from his body and it would appear to Kai, in the spot that the first "Shadow Double" had first appeared. This other shadow would form up into the appearance of Draven though with slightly darker skin. Its namesake was Pashaw’s Shadow Puppet whom Draven would imbued with 1/3 of his chakra. Thus Draven would be a little under half his chakra reserves. This would be the time he would reach into his buttbag and eat a soldier pill.

Now Draven would focus his mental concentration to control the shadow puppet. The shadow puppet would smile and said "You should have listened to my message. Now you are doomed." The shadow puppet would say as it preformed a string of its own handseals. The shadow puppets eyes would glow a wintery tomb color as if void of life. If Kai where to look at the shadow puppets eyes, he would need to have a mental fortitude of 17 else be froze in place from doing any action at all, a form of paralyzation.

As Kai turned to see the man he had slain a sudden shock would surge across his face. The man had disappeared, almost as if he never had existed, and had only left Kai's two hira shuriken which were now partially buried beneath the sands. Kai looked around, first to his left, then to his right. No matter where Kai looked it would not matter, as what Kai did not know was Draven had placed himself under a cloak of shadows rendering him invisible to this shinobi. He stopped looking, and was about to just walk away from the whole bizarre situation, when suddenly something caught the corner of his eye. It was the man, who was once laying before Kai, standing there completely unharmed.

What kind of monster was he?

Then at the exact same time this thought passed Kai's mind the man, the demon, or whatever it was began it's charge at Kai. Immediately Kai would begin to leap back in giant strides, just as he had before, and as he would do this he would scramble his hands together to form a set of handseals. The monster seemed to be slightly slower than Kai which allowed him to maintain his distance. When his handseals were ready ten senbon needles would form in both his hands which he would throw in the mans direction.

Needless to say Kai had thrown ten senbon at this monster, and being so close to 'it' Kai was sure at least one of them would hit.

When or if one of the needles did make contact the man would disappear, poof in to a collection of shadow fragments that would eventually fade in to nothing. Being on full alert the first thing that Kai assumed was that he had used some form of substitution jutsu. Kai frantically looked around in response to try and find where he had gone. That was when Kai saw the second Draven illusion, although he would not be aware that it was a double at the time.

Kai had jumped around in almost a semi-circle like fashion, which caused him to make his final leap landing at about 7 meters from this shinobi.

"You should have listened to my message." it would pause for just a moment "Now you are doomed".

Admittedly it had made Kai on edge, the chilling tone behind this mans voice. The ice cold gaze that he was now staring at Kai head on. Then suddenly his eyes would light up like a Christmas tree.

Kai needed to get in close range with this... creature, in order to do any real damage.

He would prepare himself in the mantis stance which came so naturally to him it didn't even take a moment, then he would take a massive leap forward in the direction of his opponent. With a kick of sand in to the air the shinobi would turn in to a spiraling tornado flying at top speed towards the abomination. If it should make contact or not the technique could allow Kai to move ten meters in any direction, as such bringing him in close enough range to land some real damage.

He no longer cared for this mans life, Kai knew he was out of his league by now, it was life or death from here on out.

[Draven]

Draven may be slightly slower...but...

The shadow double was not incorporeal thus indeed it would be obliterated. Though the shadow puppet behind it would have crouched and avoid the senbon needles. But it would seem as if the shadow puppet would freeze with its eyes still locked onto Kai so that the freezing gaze could still possibly effect him (save of 17 if eye contact is made/paralyzed/25rounds). Draven would break his control over the shadow puppet to gathered his soul energy...

So the shadow double jutsu was still in effect. What this meant was another shadow double would materialize, though this time 5 meters behind Kai. This shadow double would do basically what the first one did and charge Kai. It the shadow double makes contact with Kai a save of 25 must be made, else a movement loss of -1 would be incurred. The Shadow double would most likely make contact with Kai at the same time that Kai would be making contact with the shadow puppet.

Meanwhile Draven would have gathered the soul energy needed to shoot an invisible ray at Kai. Unfortunately this meant he had to sacrifice his shadow puppet in the process, because by the time the invisible ray would be calculated to hit Kai, would be the same time Kai would be hitting his shadow puppet with that tornado like melee attack. Now unlike the first invisible ray, this one had very different effects. If Kai is hit, then he would be slowed by a factor of 2. This meant that he would need to take 2 moves to complete one, and also he would spend 2 times the amount of handseals on jutsus.

Currently Draven would be too close to comfort from Kai. Being only 3 meters to Kai's north Draven would take a big leap back, while in mid air he would be preforming handseals. Just before he lands he would be wrapped up in his Wraithform. This had various effects, one of which was the ability to subdue the noise he makes, including his landing to the ground. Thus he would land 10 meters back, which makes him 13 meters away from Kai's position to the north.

< 20 = no sound made (d100/also known as percentile dice): gz4lozHL1-100

Weather Draven made a sound or not, he will be producing another set of handseals. This time he would be shrouded in a white aura, that is if anyone could see Draven to see the aura. This aura would extend out 3 meters. If an attacker or a jutsu comes into contact with this aura, the attacker would be dazed for one round. Also the attack or jutsu would instantly stop leaving Draven unharmed. But, in that event the aura would dissipate. Yet this only happens if the attacker fails a save of 15. Thus he would be set up for the next round... perhaps the final round, perhaps not. Draven was very impressed how well this Kai was holding up against his onslaught.

Thought I'd give ya this one, too much to write out what it all does.


Wraithform (10)(10)(50)(80)(110)
Rank: "D", "C", "B", "A", "S"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: User can make the subject of this Jutsu partially insubstantial, in truth making them only 1/5th real.

The duration of this technique lasts for 5 minutes per Class Level. While in Wraithform creatures that interact with the subject feels they are attacking normally, however they are actually hitting much less than normal when it comes to striking attacks.

"C" Rank gives a 20% chance of miss.
"B" Rank gives a 30% chance of miss.
"A" Rank gives a 40% chance of miss.
"S" Rank gives a 50% chance of miss.

"D" Rank gives a 10% damage reduction.
"C" Rank gives a 20% damage reduction.
"B" Rank gives a 30% damage reduction.
"A" Rank gives a 40% damage reduction.

The creature seems to be floating however they are not. If the creature has the natural ability to fly then the Wraithformed creature is able to fly.
Limit: Must know the Shadow Perception.

As Kai would rapidly spin towards his opponent he was being followed by yet another one of his clones. The illusion followed Kai the whole journey between his original position over to where the second clone had been formed, after which he arrived would tear apart the puppet apart using his jutsu. Kai's assault would stop there as he looked up, directly in to the mans eyes, the bright dazzling and ice cold light would bring his movements to a halt. Kai simply stood there for awhile, completely motionless as the puppet shattered in to the shadow fragments like it had before.

There was very little Kai could do, he panicked as he had lost control of his own movements, completely absorbed by the illusion he had no clue even existed.

'What...what's going on, I can't move...'

Kai would shudder in fear as he attempted to move his body, there was absolutely nothing more in the world he hated than being stripped of his movement. As the shinobi stood there, completely motionless, he would be struck down by the third illusionary clone that he was completely unaware of.

His legs would give in causing him to collapse on to the desert sands. As this had happened the third clone would shatter in to the familiar shadow fragments that Kai dreaded, then would stab themselves in to the desert sands where they would slowly fade.

He was now laying there, completely motionless, and unable to defend himself. He still had no clue how exactly he had been taken of all his movement but the feeling of being restrained infuriated him. He could barely breath laying chest down on the sand, his face resting sideways. Kai wanted to resist but he couldn't move, not even in the slightest. He wanted to yell out in anger and distress from all this but he couldn't.

He could do nothing but simply lay there, on the ground, with no way of defending himself.

As he began to realize the gravity of the situation, and realized that there was no way of escaping whatever he had gotten himself in to, he calmed himself and readied for the worst part of it all. He knew he was going to experience pain for allowing himself to be caught by his enemy.

He knew he was going to experience a lot of it.

[Draven]

Draven watched as Kai crashed to the ground motionless. He had won but not yet. 2.5 minutes, but that was so long in a fight. He would dispel his shadow puppet, the shadow double jutsu, and the night sky would clear up. He would approach Kai...

Draven would start to rummage thought Kai's belongings....Shit...It's not here!!....DAAAMN NOT AGAIN. He would then sit Kai up and look him in the face. "Well this is embarrassing, but your not my mark." He said scratching the back of his neck. So this is how this is going to go down. My name is Draven." he would say perhaps a tactical error. But he would then produce enough handseals where he would force a Genjutsu to work. (meaning he would know if the genjutsu fails, so he will produce it until it works.) The genjutsu in question was one that would prevent Kai from talking about this situation, the "monster" he had encountered, or in essence talking about Draven...

Next Draven would produce one more set of handseals, and again he would produce this technique until it is forced upon Kai. He would put Kai into a stupor. Then Draven would stand up and run away. He did really hope this person could find his way out, but he didn't want to be detected. Thus hopefully he would be gone from the history books. Hopefully Kai wont die out here...hopefully...Well whatever at least it wouldn't be on Draven's mind, at least he didn't murder another innocent person.

Enchantment 540

Enchanter: Disenchanter (Mastery)
Rank: "A"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: User gains better protection against all Enchantment Jutsus (including Charm and Compulsion).
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: The Disenchanter gives the Enchanter a +4 bonus to all saves against Enchantment Jutsus (Including Charm and Compulsion) and a +2 bonus to saves against other Mind-Affecting Effects.
Limit: Must know the Enchantment Perception. Automatically gained once Mastered Enchantment Perception.


Enchantment Perception (80)
Rank: "B"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: Jutsu allows the user to perform Enchantment Perceptions.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Enchantments affect the mind and cause the recipient to think and act in ways that the subject would not do otherwise. Jutsus from this Perception always have the mind-affecting descriptor. Consequently, Enchantments affect only creatures (and not all creatures). Enchantments are the "catch" all Jutsus that do not follow in the "Charm", nor "Compulsion" category and are the prerequisite Perception before moving into the 2 more advanced Perceptions.
Limit: Must know Pattern Perception and Phantasm Perception.


Boost of the Quick (10)
Rank: "D"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: This Jutsu allows the recipient to tap hidden reserves of speed and agility through sheer mental power.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: ---
Description: A Mind-Affecting Technique. Affects 1 creature. The user is able to perform this technique at a distance of 7 meters plus 6 meters per class level. The duration of this technique lasts for 2 rounds per class level. This technique may be negated. Garrett felt quick. In fact, he felt faster than he had ever felt before. Ever since the GenJutsu Master had performed the Jutsu, he could see straighter, and he knew that when the time came, he would be ready to move like the wind… The subject believes in this so strongly that the effect actually manifests. Through use of this Jutsu, the user is able to raise the amount of movements of one subject by 1 every Class Level (+3 maximum boost).
Limit: Must know the Enchantment Perception.

Stupor (10)
Rank: "D"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: The user places 1 creature already helpless in a clouded, confused state that does not allow the subject to think clearly or take actions.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: ---
Description: A Mind-Affecting Technique. Affects 1 creature. The user is able to perform this technique on the target they touch. The duration of this technique lasts for 5 hours per class level. This technique may be negated. The effect is similar to being drugged. The subject can be moved and even forced to walk on their own if dragged along, but they are unaware of what is going on around them.
Limit: Must know the Enchantment Perception.

Forbidden Speech (80)
Rank: "B"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: The user makes it impossible for a single creature to speak about a single topic.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: ---
Description: A Mind-Affecting Technique. Affects 1 creature. The user is able to perform this technique on the target they touch. The duration of this technique is permanent. This technique may be negated. The topic should be as narrow as possible for the Jutsu to work properly. An appropriate topic might be events that occurred while the creature was in captivity, the whereabouts and names of tormentors, the secret location of a hidden treasure, the password into a guarded compound, the command word of an item, or the explanation behind some major occurrence. Invalid topics include verbal commands of Jutsus, a creature's whole life history, or anything too broad for a reasonable definition of a single topic. Whether a topic is too broad is up to the Higher Staff, who can have the Jutsu automatically fail if the user persists in attempting an invalid topic. Thus, this can be a dangerous Jutsu to attempt. The affected creature cannot communicate regarding the topic in any way. Speech becomes gibberish, writing is reduced to an indecipherable scrawl, gestures are impossible, and even is scrambled. The creature has not forgotten the information, however, and it can be a maddening occurrence for the creature to be unable to communicate information that might be of life-and-death importance to friends and allies.
Limit: Must know the Enchantment Perception.

Kai was laying on the ground in terror, awaiting what he had coming. He could still hear the evil mans footsteps as he approached him. Was this it? Was Kai going to die right here and now. He could barely close his eyes shut as he waited for the pain, it would surely be agonizing. The man then reached in to Kai's butt bag, it felt like he was looking for some in particular. The shinobi would open his eyes in curiosity only to meet with the monsters gaze. A loud gulp would indicate his panicked state, this was it.

"Well this is embarrassing,"

"Eh?"

"But you're not my mark..."

'Not his... what?'

Kai's facial expression changed from complete fright to absolute embarrassment, he would lay there dazed at the whole confusing situation, he had been had.

"So this is how this is going to go down. My name is Draven."

A glimpse of silent scrutiny could be seen written all across Kai's face, he expected an apology not an introduction. His cheeks would puff up in an almost child like manner as the man began forming handseals, what exactly was he doing Kai wouldn't find out until later.

He also noticed a slight pause between making his handseals, meaning that he was about to perform a second technique. Kai would stare at the man with a look of disapproval until he was hit by the genjutsu.

Suddenly Kai couldn't think straight at all, it was almost like... well... him on a regular basis. Except this time he shouldn't be lost in his thoughts. He began thinking about things completely irrelevant, things such as what he was going to have for lunch when he got back to Sunagakure. He thought about what kind of techniques he would train when he got back, a completely nonchalant face would mark Kai's deep thoughts. Nothing could really snap him out of it now given he was in the desert.

One thing Kai did have now that he did not before? The map, and although Kai wasn't thinking about it right now he had still managed to take it from that monster. That in itself was a victory against him for Kai, there was little else he could have really done. He only wanted the map in the first place. And so Kai would lay on the sands completely dazed and paralyzed... hey.

'Why am I here, again?'
