Building 221B

[The Bearer of Bad News]

Doors locked. Something rolling over them, a thud. Possibly metal? Schatzi's ears twitched. Locked in a room with a bunch of radishes, as well as legitimate threats. Oh well, at least there was plenty to eat if it came down to it. In fairness she would leave the squishy one and the ones from her village for last. "Nya...We might have just locked in, meine süßen," she said loud enough for every contestant to hear. "My guess is, they don't want us wandering off too far."

Her eyes had a mischievous glint as she got up to approach Jumpy and Fabulous. Maybe later she would do the same to Squishy from Iwa. But her hands lashed out without warning to strike up the side of each of their necks simultaneously, the easiest to reach bit of exposed skin from between them. Her chakra would flow into them, forming an invisible "mark" that designated them as targets. She would be able to summon them to her side just as with Master Rosie later. "Sorry sorry, no need to be frightened. Just a little present from me is all."


With that she would return to her seat, retrieve her cigarettes and a lighter from her top utility belt, light one up, and put the rest back before lounging back with her hands behind the chair. She took a long drag, while her fingers traced a brief few arcane gestures out of sight which were different from hand seals. A Doom Ward which designated herself, her Master, the Fabulous One, and the Jumpy one as beneficiaries. She had to protect her Master no matter what, and there was no harm in preserving the other morsels in the deal. Other than that she simply relaxed, confident that if any danger were present, she would be warned now with time aplenty to react. The nerves in the pit of her stomach had nothing to do with the exam itself now. How could they when she had no idea what it would entail other than remaining here in this building? It was these other people. The strong ones. The pressure they gave off frightened even a superior "existence" such as herself. How the Squishy one, being confirmed as one of the weakest present could be so nonchalant...was she using some ability to ward off fear, or was she seriously that oblivious? Maybe she could talk to her again. Privately.

She could feel herself starting to relax now, remembering what could have been before. Her hips wriggled in anticipation as she leaned forward to exhale. Yeah, that was how she could keep herself collected. Just fantasize about the opportunity to indulge in her...proclivities. Yes. Some of these contestants looked absolutely delicious indeed. More than only the Squishy one, there was the Faerie, and the cute morsel fiddling with a gas mask, and more. If things turned violent, she would taste their flesh. If they remained cordial, perhaps she could still taste them, in a much more pleasurable way...for them.

[maasaa]

Many more people arrived and Maasaa assumed the start of something when he heard the sounds of something rolling down over the doors at either side. If he had to guess they had been locked in here but for what purpose? He also could hear the sounds of an air conditioner beginning to start. The room wasn’t too hot for his tastes but being locked in for a long time could cause it to get warm. Since whatever was happening was beginning to go in motion so would he. Standing from his chair Maasaa did a 360 putting his eyes on each of the other contestants. Counting there were 17 people total including himself. Was this a lot of people for these kind of exams? He hadn’t the slightest clue.

Maasaa moved away from his chair. If no directions were given he would try to learn about their situation for himself. He wasn’t one to stay very still for long unless required. Maasaa would travel around the room stopping at each of the posters on the walls. He was still unsure if these were supposed to be motivational posters, warnings or simply statements of opinion. What he did want to find out was if they were hiding anything. Using two fingers Maasaa would poke the middle of each poster, perhaps they hid something behind them. If there was indeed a hole his fingers would push the poster into them.

Maasaa also observed the air vents that were now releasing air into the room. They didn’t seem out of the ordinary with a little work one could probably leave the room through the vents if they were small enough. Though that seemed like a bad plan if this was the room where the exam was occurring. Leaving probably meant failure. At the end of his room exploration Maasaa made his way back to his chair in the middle of the room. He was unsure what they were waiting for but with little knowledge he’d stay put for a little longer.

[Lady Jaz]

Once everyone was seated, I spied seventeen occupants inside the room while sixteen of said occupants were examinees. However as everyone was settling, a sound of something bumping and rolling down a surface came from two different directions. Confused, I turned around in my seat, staring at Hitora for a few moments. I then stand up and tug my shield onto my right arm, moving into a stance as I did so.

Yoko’s ears pinched back yet he fell completely silent. No growling, just silence. Two seconds later, the wolf rose to all four paws and padded around the room silently, moving over to the south door before stopping two meters short of it. With a wolf’s sensitive hearing, it is far greater than any human’s and is in fact more acute than their sense of smell. This meant that Yoko would have a far greater chance of determining exactly what kind of sound it was before anyone else within the room.

Yoko’s ears twitched while his nose scented the air. Knowing that there were many scents within the room currently, I knew my wolf would have a hard time searching for anything on the other side of the south door. But his determination to find something, anything that may help Jasmine’s and his case was strong. But was he lucky enough to scent something small and significant? “Anything, Yoko?” I say, my voice low and cautious. Should no one else be speaking within the room, I was pretty sure my voice was going to be heard by whatever it was on the other sides of the doors…

Jutsu:

Jasmine:

[/b]
Rank: “E”
Skill: Taijutsu
Effect: Primary stance in the Kumotate; precursor to further techniques.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: With the shield hooked to their dominant arm, the user will stand with their feet precisely shoulder-length apart, their body squared to the enemy. Their arm must be bent at the elbow at a rough right angle, placing the shield between them and the opponent. From this fortified stance all manner of defensive techniques can be used.
Limit: ---[/ul][/font]

Yoko:

[/b] [10][30][80]
Rank: "D", "C", "B", "A", "S"
Skill: TaiJutsu
Effect: This extraordinary special quality allows a creature to detect approaching enemies, sniff out hidden foes, and track by sense of smell.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: The creature can detect opponents within 10-meters by sense of smell. If the opponent is upwind, the range increases to 20-meters; if downwind, it drops to 5-meters. Strong scents, such as smoke or rotting garbage, can be detected at x2 the ranges noted above. Overpowering scents, such as skunk musk, can be detected at x3 normal range. When a creature detects a scent, the exact location of the source is not revealed—only its presence somewhere within range. The creature can take a movement to note the direction of the scent. Whenever the creature comes within 2-meters of the source, the creature pinpoints the source’s location. When finding Herbs and Animals (random), Scent may improve searching for them. Learning "D" Rank allows the user to search for Common things, while "S" for Nearly Impossible. Each rank user learns increases chance of finding by 2% for the Rank of Herb, and increases per Rank thereafter. Example: At "S" Rank User gains 10% increase chance in finding Common Herbs and Animals but only 2% Increase for Nearly Impossible Herbs and Animals.
Limit: Must be an Animal, Fey, Monster, or Vermin. Innate Animal Jutsu.[/ul][/font]

[Natsy]

After taking a seat in Takigakure’s little group, Schatzi came to sit down beside me. Her smaller frame was casually leaning against mine while the room slowly began to fill up with shinobi taking seats. The soft spoken words from Schatzi told me who twelve was and my gaze moved into that direction. A red haired kunoichi with a wolf sat herself down to my left and had positioned her shield in front of her and her companion while a man in a jumpsuit remained at her side.

My gaze lingered on the man for a moment longer before moving over toward another kunoichi wearing glasses who was seated beside another man. She had an Oto headband while the man had a Kusa one. Sigh, possible allies? The guard had shut the door then and immediately afterward noises began to fill the room. Something relatively heavy was rolling around in the north and south sections of the building close to where the doors were. My gaze travelled around to both spots while the Ame kunoichi’s wolf moved off toward the south end of the building.

Closing my eyes, I allowed my sensory abilities to take over in hopes of searching the room for any hidden chakra signatures. Unfortunately, I was only able to sense beings up to B class, but I had the feeling the majority of the shinobi in here were around that class anyway. But the movement from outside the doors.. Did they have a chakra signature or any kind? Meanwhile, as the chakra flowed through my system to activate my mind’s eye, a smaller portion of that used chakra was being sent to my forehead subconsciously while I wrap one arm around Schatzi’s shoulders. “What kind of sound do you think that was?” I whisper to the kunoichi sitting beside me.

[Nekomata Minh]

Well things would only get interesting as more people entered the building. Some displayed high levels of curiousity and, alertness. Others; not so much. Junko took her time with things as everyone chose their desired positions of observation within the room. She was currently getting the finishing touches on her katana when, examinee number 17 eventually arrived.

Within a short time frame the air would start circulating through the given space of the building. Junko only shared a swift thought as she then, heard the sound a door closing and, locking. No glances were made at all she just, let things carry on like they should.

She resheathed her freshly polished sword and, strapped it firmly to her waist. It was then that she heard somekind of rolling noise that seemed to take over the doors from the North and South regions. Odd. Perhaps they were barricades? It was questionable but, Junko found no reason to act out so yet. So in regards to that she remained seated and, relaxed. The answers to these actions will come later.

[Yashouri]

  Yashouri heard the door getting closed by the guard/examiner.He also heard something tough rolling on the floor.He didn't see what it was but he was sure that it was starting.It was from both of the sides.He also noticed the air starting to fresh up the place.He liked hot-ish weather.He never liked the wather in Kirigakure because he was actually born in Konoha.He was excited since the beginning of this adventure and he was more excited now.He saw his teammate Seira also entering,the other villages sort of had people to support eachother..Well if her and someone else created a small kiri gang he would surely join.He didn't say anything,he focused on himself.


  He put his bag under his chair and locked it with its leather lock.He pulled his gunbai from the floor with a grin. He sweeped the dust from his gunbai.He also sweeped the dust from his clothing and scratched his head covered with spiky green hairs.He pulled his legs and sat kept sitting down on the seat with all of his body.He slammed both of his hands on his gunbai and closed his eyes.He started to feel the blood moving through the required pressure points in his body.He tried to understand the ways of his elements just like he did in his trainings.This place wasn't this training swamp..This place was where Chuunin exams were held!!


  He purely focused on his energy.If something happened right now,he could easily respond now that he got his energy ready.His sands surrounded him beneath his soft brown cloak.He was ready.


 Yashouri did few handseals and focussed all of his sand chakra.He imagined the technique in his mind and after his energy pressing through handseals it became real.He smoothly said
 '' Daisan No me! '' . He created a big brown coloured tough sand eye to see everything going around the room.He opened his left eye and kept his right eye closed with his right hand.He quickly got the connection between the eye and him.The eye reached the top of the room.He still couldn't see what was rolling but he surely saw they had thuds.Maybe they were gas bombs? Or just a traditional signs of the chuunin exams? He would learn in the further hours.. Or even minutes.He kept his eye without losing his meditating stance

[zarak729]

Thank God the air conditioners finally started up, he had been feeling stuffy, weighed down by all the items in his cloak and the tense atmosphere in the room. As cold air started pouring into the room Zakari reclined in relaxation, the guards closing the door. It would be immediately after this that he would hear the door lock and not so long after that the sound of objects rolling down over the doors on the North and South sides of the building. The door locking he could understand, the Chuunin Exams were kinda known for the dangerous tasks and missions the applicants had to perform. Locking the door could be seen as a way of telling them shit just got real and/or there was no turning back at this point. On the other hand, the sound of what could be boulders rolling down over the doors on the North and the South sides were damn suspicious. Wouldn't it be simpler to just lock those doors too? 

For a second he felt a sense of foreboding. From the looks of it everyone else was feeling something amiss as well. It could be nothing or it could be something. Was he willing to bet on the former and take his chances? Of course not, these Exams were also known for the numbers of dead ninjas who failed. Nope, death was not ideal, not at all. So the question became, what could he do? Well first he could take precautions in case something awry came up. His long fingers found their way to the dials on his Pouch Projector device, turning the dials, setting the cylinders to aligned so the release device on his right arm would eject Goo and the one on his left, Ice. Also he set it for line action release, which would allow him to fire it up to 38 meters, straight ahead.

Content with the setting Zakari reached up and pulled the Sniper Goggles in place over his eyes. Activating the X ray function he would attempt to discern just exactly what was happening outside the room, behind each door, the ones the participants entered through and the other one on the far left. The wall may prove to be too thick but surely he would able to see behind the doors. While he was at it he would check the carpet for any hidden pitfall traps, just in case there was a hidden underground battle arena, because it would be totally something he would do if he was the one in charge of these Exams. Whatever insight he would glean Zakari would keep it to himself until he had enough information in the palm of his hand and he felt it warranted attention to anyone other than himself...

[Hitora Ryunobu (Uchiha)]

When the door suddenly shut Hitora found nothing strange with this, it meant that those registered and needed were all in one place. What confused him was the sudden sound of the door locking, the one that the guard had entered through. He then noticed Jasmine stand up and tug her shield from her back to her arm, he followed suit slowly.

He carefully stood up, keeping his eyes open, scanning the area in front of him repeatedly to see if anything strange happened the young man then reached into his equipment belt and pulled out one of his eight kunai from within its depths. The young man was slightly worried, when he noticed that Yoko had begun to patrol in a very silent manner to which he ascribed to the training that Yoko had done with Jasmine.

He kept silent, wondering if he should start forming handseals, however he felt that would be an unneeded precaution as of right now, and wondered what would happen next….

[Takeuchi]

My eyes glanced to either door as their entry way was shut behind the last participant and I could hear the lock of the door click shut. So, the way was now shut and to top that off, a moment later I heard something rolling behind both the north and south doors and thunk with an impact against them. There were a dozen things they could have been and I was not sure that Mayu had heard that part of it. Keeping my tone low so she would be the only one able to hear without working for it I would say, "Behind those doors, something rolled and made contact with them."

As I mentioned the doors my eyes very pointedly, for anyone looking at me, moved to indicate both the north and south doors. I very much doubted that they were explosives, but if this was a trap rather than official Chuunin Exams than that was a distinct possibility. The air didn't seem to be contaminated from what I had observed thus far, so that wasn't an issue. Well, for now all that I could do was lean back in my chair as I had been before and be ready to strike. Perhaps it was paranoid but, then again, I had also seen someone's dog blow up in front of me for nosing a dead body. I was ready. Sue me.

[Tora Tsume]

Once everyone were in Tora heard the doors lock. While at the same time, the air conditioner began working and something rolled towards the door with a thud. There was really little time to analyze it all, but whatever suspicion he had, the Genin decided to be safe and cover himself from all possible ends. Simply, Tora just wanted to avoid anything harming him and he would rather see others suffer instead.

Since there were many kinds of poison gas the human nose cannot detect, Tora would assume that that wolf that came sniffing at the south door would pick up a scent if it was some sort of gas. Next, he had to consider that thing that rolled towards the door. He couldn't identify it by the sound of it, nor did he have time to ponder. His initial thought was some sort of explosive, which would mean getting away from both doors is adviced and he would do just that.

A second after the thud, Tora jumped forward, to the midde of the room, the center of dangerm while pulling out his gas mask and kneeling down, shutting his eyes for a moment. If these were explosives, the examiners wanted to test their reactions, perhaps huddle everyone in the center, and they would probably be successful. This might mean that the center of the room was a dangerous place to hang in, which is why Tora stayed on edge, opening his eyes and looking around the room, curious to see what would happen next.

[Seira Kimura]

Seira was calmly leaning against the wall when it happened. Her eyes instantly snapped towards the door when it was closed, picking up the locking sound. So they were instantly trapped in here. It couldn't just be to make sure they didn't wander until the exam started. She heard the air conditioner come on and cool the room, which she was unsure of whether was good or bad. Just to be on the safe side, she slipped her gas mask over her face. It's not like it would be a bad thing if nothing happened. It was just a simple precaution that would protect her from even deadly gases. Besides, she already had it in her hand since she pulled it out earlier.

There were no windows in the room, so there was no escape unless one could possibly fit inside of that vent, which she wouldn't suggest. Maybe a technique though would be able to do it. Some kind of spying technique if they could get it through the vent.

Then there was the thuds. It was an odd sound, sounding as if it were rolling down both the north and south door. Her eyes flicked between them as she thought for a brief moment. What could it possibly be? Perhaps it was something like those thick metal sheets that came down over doors and windows when a building was locked down.

She watched the wolf go over and sniff it, watching his reactions carefully for any clues she might possibly be able to pick up on.

She activated her passive abilities, deciding they could be useful anyway, picking up chakra signatures she couldn't locate normally, or in general. They'd hopefully allow her to pick up any on the other side of the walls or elsewhere nearby other than those which were inside the room.

After a second she pulled out her binoculars out of her tactical vest. After a bit of adjusting, she flipped them to the x-ray vision as well, figuring that the other ninja using his goggles was using something of a similar effect and deciding that two pairs of eyes were better than one, and perhaps picking up anything her sensor abilities could not. She looked through the lenses and turned her head to scan the room. She didn't only focus on the doors, but scanned all four walls as well as giving the ceiling and floor a few looks for anything in the hopes of picking up something.

[// One]

Kenshin was immediately in a bad situation, he was under the impression he was still in the planning phase of the exams. It was only when everyone had settled and the doors closed that he realized he was wrong. His attention drawn to the doors not at their closing, but at the following noises. He couldn't make out exactly what was going on but it sounded like something rolled across the doors and clicked, possibly locking.

His assumption was that they were locked in the room intentionally, which meant the exams had begun. If they didn't want people to be able to leave, then things were more serious than expected. Immediately his mind flicked to it's mind's eye. His vision piercing and reaching through the confines of the room and beyond to tag everyone. Next he focused intensely on himself, his body kicking in with a technique from his soulcaster training. His soul traveled forward in time, keeping an eye on things and acting as a guard for him. He scanned the room quickly, looking for any immediate clue but without anything significant to hold onto, he had nothing.

He kept his mind's eye open, scanning his surroundings constantly to see what would be coming his way. If something were to happen, he would assume it was triggered. With his body and soul prepared for any situation that would involve locking himself and everyone else into the room, he was ready for the next step. His eyes shifted before shifting into a complete blackness, a non-dimensional black that showed nothing. His body tweaked and shifted, bursting into the fourth stage of Chaos. A quick inhale sent the shinobi's chest outward before an exhale drew it back in.

If the exams were starting now, he needed to be ready for anything and everything. He hadn't experienced the exams himself, but he had been warned by Chuunins. Overall the Kamyuja remained seated, the paper in his cloak blowing around before forming a large tower shield on his left arm.

Chaos Fourth Stage "Eternal Chaos"
Rank: ‘S’
Skill: Taijutsu
Effect: Final step in evolution, the fourth stage of chaos is like nothing anyone has ever seen before. The fourth stage allows the user to unlock one-hundred percent of there max strength, there endurance and durability remains the same as before as stated above in the Kamyuja description section. There speed in enhance even more now, allowing them to increase there movement speed by two, giving them the advantage now in a battlefield. As stated before, once activated the user is now capable of seeing ones aura as it emanates from there body.
Special: You receive a plus two to movement. Though a Kamyuja member is not capable of using chakra gates, they can use there chaos as as substitute in order to go into a chakra gate related fighting style. This eye is capable of mimicking the seventh and eighth gate. Please note you don't gain the benefits of those chakra gates.
Drawback: ----
Description: The final step, this form of chaos was never thought to exist. But here it lies in every Kamyuja member awaiting to be awaken so there true power can shine. This form of chaos is to be known as the most powerful one of all, in truth it has no weakness and will break the boundaries of mankind as we known. When activating the fourth stage of chaos the person seems to have more control then ever before, unlike the three stage they are able to control there emotions and suppress there strength at will. This time around the eyes of the Kamyuja don’t change, instead they stay there original genetic color, though there eye remain the same their eyes do glisten with brilliance while chaos is activated, but there are some cases where the eyes still retain the 'Third stages' color. Meaning someone who had black or white eyes will retain that when they unlock the fourth eyes.. Though there eyes don’t change physically they still gain the capability of seeing in black n’ white as if they were colored blind, this doesn’t hinder there ability to fight in fact it increase there ability due to the fact they are able to see the aura of chakra emanating from a person’s body. Once the Kamyuja reaches this stage of Chaos they are able to demonstrate the full capabilities of there true strength as they are no longer suppressed by the previous stages, in this state they are capable of tapping into there max potential, making them now the most powerful creature that has every walked this earth. There strength is unrivaled by those who could have rivaled it once before and there movement speed steadily increase, they no longer move with a plus one but instead with a plus two. Unlike before, where the Kamyuja’s nocieptor’s would shut down so they wouldn’t be able to feel pain no longer applies. Now the nocieptor are still active allowing the Kamyuja to actually feel pain when they are in this stage, this would seem to damper there ability but in truth it actually increase it. The pituitary gland works more proficient then before, allowing it to produce an absurd amount of endorphins while they are in this stage. They are able to negate fifty percent of all damage done to them making any physical damage done to them that was serious feel like a minor wound. Though they don’t posses the ability not to feel pain anymore they do have the ability now to negate most of the damage done to them, this also proves useless for them now since they no longer have a time limit like before.

[Sumire Violet]

Yosei was sat down when the examiner locked the first door, his ears caught the sound and that wasn't anything too important... what really would catch his attention though were the two thuds that came from north and south of his position. Curious he activated his dojutsu to see what was going on. He wasn't a skilled sensor however being able to see 50 meters around with clear X ray vision helped and thanks to his observational abilities and skill to know ability anyone outside would be glanced over and he should be able to know what was going on.

While he looked around outside to see what closed against the sides he noted the air vents, no one else seemed to be worried about them and none of his butterflies against the ceiling were fainting or dying so for now he assumed the air was clean. Never the less he put one hand of his down to the gas mask around his waist ready to be pulled off and put on in a moment.. or less.

[The God Damn Otokage]

[Lava Beneath the Falls]

Phyre remained as calm as she could be least on the outside. Sitting with the back of the chair in front of her, and herself straddled on it. She would have her arms resting on the back of the chair, looking about the room without trying to be obvious about it. She would do her best to try to psych anyone that looked in her direction out, like she was or could be a real threat competition wise. Phy didn't gather as to why everyone's attention suddenly seemed fixated on what seemed the doors and different sections of the room. 'I miss something?' she thought. Not too long after that thought Schatzi would announce they were locked in supposedly. 'How...did I miss this?' she thought again, rubbing her left ear. 'Last I checked I aint deaf....' So upon Schatzi saying this Phy looked at her. "You sure about that...Sh.." before she could finish Schatzi had just randomly got her in the back of the neck.

It took everything she had not to scream at her again for doing this....but she didn't want to cause a scene in the midst of the competition. Not yet anyway...she just gave a death glare at her comrade for touching her like that. So Phy resorted in a whispered yell as she had jumped from the touch. "Shots.....what the hell? I don't want any presents..." she would exclaim in a whispered angered tone, before relaxing once more rubbing the side of her neck unsure what went on. So many oddities happening...'So we're trapped in this small room....with what...twenty...err seventeen...' she would correct herself as she looked about the room once. 'Well no...eighteen if one would count the wolf as a separate entity...so many ninjas...and who knew how strong some were. Well Shigure probably did....hes smart....and course Rosie is our kage...wonder if any were on par with her level...if so I could be in trouble here...Man do I really wish I would have brought Shikazi just a little further into the exams...though wonder if that bird be smart enough to have followed me here...and be someone on the outside to get us out if need be? Pfft...no he wouldn't do that...I'm too far away...and hes untrained...damnit...why did I leave him back there?' she would think in her deep conversation amongst herself. Which was usual for her to keep to herself, and save it for when the fighting would begin. She didn't want to give anything away to well strangers.

As she pondered about the room she would take notice to the other users messing with goggles. 'Oh yea....I got myself goggles oddly too...' she thought as she would grab hers from the top of her head and start to take a good look at the other features it had. 'hmm buttons...' she would think as she pressed em for different type of lenses to be viewed through. One just happened to be x-ray. 'So...it zooms and has...wait what is...' she would say seeing the x-ray and being able to see Shigure's skeleton body. 'hehe sweet' she thought as she gave a smile. 'Wonder if this could see through to the other side?' she thought as she went to nudge Shigure, trying to show off her usefulness with the goggles. She hadn't yet notice it had thermal vision yet though.

Phy would only break her silence once more to try to whisper into Shigure's ear. "This could get ugly...real quick..think we should come up with something..." she would say trusting Shigure the most. Though Rosie was her kage, she was always with Shigure when the journey would get rough. She trusted him with her life, and he was pretty much a little closer to Phy anyway. The red head kunoichi would go back to looking calm and too cool to care about things for now, as she got a random song stuck in her head.

[Chuunin Examiner]

You all have again 2 days to post a reaction. Post once. After 2 days whether you posted or not I will post.

Maasa would find nothing behind the posters. He would also see that the vents were not large enough for any creature to go through, well with the exception of a snake perhaps, and a tiny creature.

By the time Yoko would get to the door there was no way to determine exactly what it was but one would guess it was heavy that went over the door.

Those who smelled the vents even with scent would not notice anything. They would simply notice the cool air blowing in.

With the power of Mind's eye of Kagura those who performed this technique would be able to see a few bodies around throughout the building. Hands together, clasped as if performing a Jutsu. Their Chakra surrounded the building of sorts but nothing was happening and no one was moving. On all sides there were at least 3 people each.

Those with Xray Powers, or Items as they turned them on or activated them to see what was beyond the walls would be hit with a rude awakening. A sudden sense of Virtigo would hit them as if they were falling but the way it felt was more like they were running through themselves over and over again as if looking into a mirror into another mirror into another mirror with infinite possibilities. The Sense of dread would be too much for them and if they continued to look they would fall and collapse still gaining no knowledge of what was on the outside.

Animal Companions with the Scent ability would begin to bark, screech, or flail in however would be fitting to warn their masters something was wrong. Those who are "C" Class would begin to feel drowsy as if a wave of tiredness came before them before passing to a sleep. Those of "B" Class and above would begin to feel the beginning stages of what would happen to those of "C" Class.

[The Bearer of Bad News]

Schatzi stretched out. Boring. Even after Marking and Warding her team, nothing would happen. Except that blasted dog making a fuss. Feh. Dogs. She yawned, her illusory garb vanishing as her mind wandered. Hey, that one guy didn't have a shirt on. Was that even allowed? Not that shirts should be allowed for a radish with such a good build. Criminal, to hide such things.

Too, she wanted to grab hold and squeeze the girl from before with all her might and take a nap. She looked like a squishy pillow. And that boy over there was a fairy! Why hadn't she noticed earlier? Could she catch it? Could she eat it? She yawned again, her cigarette falling from her mouth. They were locked in. She told them all as much. One person even got up and started checking various things in the room. So why had nothing actually happened yet? Maybe she should just take out a knife and stab somebody in the eye, see if that made something happen. Like that sand eye. Idly she drew a kunai from her left belt and hurled it at the floating appendage. Just for amusement.

"Nya...Master when does the test start?"

[Image In the Falls]

Calmly sitting down next to his Comrades, the boy continued his study of the other contestants. Even with his Sensory ability trained even higher than that of Rosalie's, the boy still couldn't register a few of the contestants... 3 to be exact. More curiously, Shigure could see further within the compound, noticing 12 chakra signatures, which seemed to be casting some sort of technique perhaps?

"We're surrounded, by the way. 12 Shinobi... apparently producing some sort of technique."

Shigure didn't mind saying this aloud for all to hear frankly, he didn't care if they knew or not, added benifit if everyone started freaking out. But there wasn't anything he could do about this. They were surrounded, and apparently there wasn't an exit. Sitting and waiting quietly would be the best option. For now.

A slight effect of drowsiness became the genin, and only now in his rather calm demeanor, he'd begin to realize that both he and Phyre had been given presents, hers being those awkward goggles. They didn't have them before the mission, but recieved them after their visit to the Takikage Tower. The only person that had been near the two of them to get into their equipment, was... Schatzi. "By the way new girl, in Shigure. Also, what were these nuts you put in my bag?" The boy exclaimed in a whisper, just to make sure before he attempted to eat them out of boredom.

Locked doors and surrounded by Shinobi. What a fucked up life.

[Takeuchi]

"Could take a nap if I only had a pillow." I said moments before the animals in the room started to act up over something. I could not tell what it was until a moment later I began to feel the beginnings of drowsiness hit me. It was not at a stage of physical fatigue yet, but it was a bit of a fog on my mind, it would seem that the intention was for us to sleep. Now, there were two ways that I could go with this, one was to go berserk and try to smash down a wall or one of the doors, the other was to go with this. Considering this had been announced as an official exams and no objective or anything had been announced yet, I decided that this was probably not yet part of the test.

First, though, I had to deal with something that caught my eye and I stood with my suit jacket in hand. "I'll be right back." The words were directed at Mayu as I walked over to the female who's top had suddenly disappeared, as if the clothing was an illusion. What a ridiculous notion, though, using some kind of illusion instead of actual clothing to cover your body. There was something else though, it was the lit cigarette that had fallen from her mouth. So as I made my way over the jacket in my hand was wrapped around her to cover her naked torso. "You should be more careful in covering yourself, and with your cigarettes." I said to her, naturally using the sole of my shoe to grind the embers of the tobacco into oblivion while covering her nudity.

Turning my back to them I made my way back over to Mayu and toook my seat once again, "So, you think I should try and tear down a wall or door? The way I see it they're either going to take us to whatever the exam is unconscious, probably the more likely situation, or this isn't an exam and is a trap to take us all out."

((OOC: Just a note, Natsumi, I forgot to say it before, but Mukuro {Takeuchi} is not wearing a headband, so he could not be identified by it either.))

[maasaa]

Maasaa was bored in the room. Not everyone was sitting in a chair so he stood up grabbing another two more unused chairs. The chairs would be brought to the center where Maasaa had been sitting. Using the chairs he set them up next to each other. Returning to his original seat he was now able to put his feet up and relax a bit more comfortably on the chairs. His legs extended across the other two chairs as his back reclined against his original chair. There wasn't anything to do so he may as well try to make himself as comfortable as possible until the next phase or the first phase. This might be a test but if it was he wasn't very impressed.
