"Such a pitiful land..."

Upon reaching the deserts of Kaze no Kuni, that was the first that that had come to mind. There was no end in sight to this dull wasteland. There was no color, no life. He'd long known that deserts were barren, but had only heard it. Actually seeing it -- that was something else all together. In truth, it was quite saddening, and the young Ikebana actually felt genuinely sad for the land. What had it done to deserve such ugliness?

With a heavy sigh, Toge felt behind him, making sure his tantō was strapped to his back in it's holster Check. He inspected the cloak to see if he had his four kunai held in their respective places, resting soundly. Lastly, upon confirming the kunai's contents, he checked the bags that he had strapped across his waist, in an almost utility belt like fashion. Counting sixty-three seeds exact, as well as forty of his Silene leaves. He had two B-Rank doses worth of poison extract in the form of his Rafflesia leaves, and he had twenty Campion leaves. Everything evened out, he noted. Now then... all that remained was finding Sunagakure...

...and assassinating it's Kazekage.

• No attacking on either player's first post
• As agreed on, I will be treated as a B Rank at 1500 TP with Doton: Dorou Domou making it such. That will be the only technique that I do not have currently that I will be using (or, at the very least, have the ability to use)

• Treat it as you would a serious fight
• Acknowledge this template is smexy as f***.
• Have fun. ^^

[Tetsu]

upon leaving Sunagakure, the young Kazekage began to traverse into the beautiful desert wasteland. Where many saw desolate waste, Amira saw growth and life. The cacti that littered the dry landscape were similar to the wooden trees that she found so enthusing. She traveled on until she came to about 5 kilometers away from the tall divide that denoted as the villages entrance. She began to notice the approach of the green cloaked individual. Something about this fellow seemed familiar. Had they encountered each other at some point? Amira shrugged off the thought, and began to assume that combat was an option. Estimating his oncoming distance to be about 150 meters in total, Amira took the time to begin inspecting her gear. She felt the 9 kunai knives that rested inside of the back slots of her vest. The 45 shuriken, bo rested in her front vest pocket. Her remaining 77 explosive tags sat comfortably in one of her scroll slots. A bundle of wire was also connected her her belt as well. Having no time to waste, She began to also analyze her surroundings.

Living in Sunagakure, Amira was very familiar with the surroundings that were present in Kaze no Kuni. The tall, earthen pillars to her southeast might be a good place to lure this individual into a trap. The cactus littered fields between here and there however would make it hazardous. The oasis to the southwest might also be a decent option. To the west about 100 meters in that direction, was a small desolate town that once housed a group of people that have long been forgotten. To the north she was fully aware of the darkened cave that existed there, As a last resort or for evasion of a sand storm, the cave would be quite useful. In between the pair lay an open span of sand rocks. A tall sandstone tower stood between them slightly to the east. This tower was once an outpost used by Sunagakure, but now remained dormant. Traps set by shinobi long ago might still be active there. It was taboo to even attempt to go near that old 40 meter tall tower. Finding that to be a good place to avoid, she turned her attention back to the invading figure. The broken down carts and skeletal remains that littered the path that he now walked were lined all along the road. "Welcome to my home...the beauty of desolation"she whispered as she began to take her first steps towards the figure. She would show him the beauty that he lacked to understand. 

(OCC: That template thought O.O)

[Ulyanin]

Waddling about through the Land of Winds, Ulyanin was nearing a small town where he hoped to get some nice goodies, like maybe mitarashi dango or torayaki. Entering the town, the fluffy-headed little weirdo was immediately made aware of a strange and unsettling smell that clung to the air; it was a sickly sweet scent that made the childlike person a little queasy, which was not made better by the lack of people every direction the puffy-haired explorer had looked to. He did not understand what sort of situation was happening, and it made him nervous and jittery enough to take out his club, which wasn't all that much of an intimidating weapon for self defense.

As he continued wandering through the ghost town, Ulyanin was suddenly surprised by the sounds of foot falls; whoever was here happened to be close by, and the sounds of the movement seemed to have come from an estimated 40 meter distance away from where he was. Curious, the odd little guy was very hopeful that whatever was causing the noise were animals that he could frolic with, or people that might have tasty treats and were playing a game to see who gets them. He peeked over and was shocked to find two people who were nearby, which he was about to run cheerfully to greet until noticing an air of tension permeating from the two strangers staring down at each other; it seemed like fighting was going to occur between the two potential combatants.

Ulyanin was quickly made frightened and was just as fast in trying to find a place to hide, which resulted in a series of him scurrying and popping in and out of random places before he hid behind a house that was near enough to watch what would happen next, and far enough away so that it didn't garner attention. With a mingling of curiosity and fear, the wooly trekker shivered as he peeked out at where the two individuals from afar were continuing with their stand-still.

TOGE IKEBANA

TO THOSE WHO DARE TO TRAMPLE

UPON THIS WORLD'S NATURAL BEAUTY!

Ah, how fate was ever the most amusing trickster. Toge had been sent to track down Sunagakure to kill the Kazekage, yet, she came to him. He wasn't sure if he should be worried or not, but he most certainly wasn't going to be reckless. After all, she was the Kazekage for a reason. Unlike with his reign, this was one of the gokage. Their position was so much more than that of the villages like Kusagakure; they had not the right to call their leader a kage, but rather, were granted permission to do so. At least, that was what he heard some time ago. Was it correct? He had no idea.

While he was traveling, Toge had made a mental note of the sites that he had passed and that were nearby. Towards his north west was what appeared to be a part of the desert triumphant with cacti; he'd rather avoid fighting there. If, for no other reason, then he had no intention of ruining what little plant life could thrive out in this wasteland. In that same direction rested some type of pillars that rose high up. Perhaps a tribute to a god of some type? He didn't know. He'd noticed an oasis of a sort -- although, that was just a guess from where he was. It was one hundred meters north east of where he was. It was just a guess, though he doubted he'd get near one hundred meters away from where he was at now. He recalled a cave that he had passed awhile ago, a simple enough feature but one not necessary for this fight, less he need to retreat.

Toge was well aware of the tower that was located to his west, and not too far. He was able to see that it was unmanned, at the very least. Of course, with the Kazekage spotting him, any chance of catching her off guard now were now voided. There was no chance of him catching her by surprise now that she was aware of his presence. "This barren land is lacking in color. Come, now. Let us make this land a canvas, and stain it with crimson," Toge simply said as he began weaving a set of quick twelve seals.

Toge was a solid twenty-three meters back as he said this; that was more than enough time to create an gargantuan fifty meter garden. Flowers of various types began springing up from the ground. Dahlias, roses, tulips, and so much more; a variety of flowers of bright and vibrant colors all sprung to life at his mere command. Of course, Toge wasn't done there. Oh no, he was just getting started. Eight more seals were now expertly woven in quick succession, as from that fifty meter garden, five clones rose up from the flower buds, To give one an approximate idea of how many flowers were present in this vivid world Toge had created, each clone was compromised of twenty flowers each, and there had been little notice of any sort of indentation within this field

[Tetsu]

Amira was now 120 meters away from Toge by the time she decided to deviate slightly to the west. Heading for the oasis, Amira began to create a field of own. Forming handseals, Amira began to use the water from the shallow pool to create a 10 meter by 10 meter mud field. She looked back over at Toge to realize that he had created a field of beautiful flowers. Amira suddenly realized that it was him that she was dealing with. "Shit, it's the flower guy!" She exclaimed as she began to form another set of handseals. As his 20 or so clones began to rise out of the field of flowers. Not hesitating for a moment Amira began to raise her own clones. Creating thirty two in all, Amira decided that this was her best plan of action for now.

She decided to allow her bushin to charge at Toge with all their Muddy Amira likeness. Amira however still needed to get a bit closer herself. As the clones charged forward to cover a good 30 meter distance, Amira only covered half of that. She needed to be within range after all. The fun part was going to be seeing the clones clash.

Amira began it again observe her enemy. She only knew that this guy "LOVED" flowers. She too was a mokuton user and this forth also had quite a few vine like tricks up her sleeves. Having a decent Idea of what she wanted to do, she quickly allowed her clones to do the fighting for her. She didn't mind sitting back and watching the show. "You will see my art soon enough flower guy..." She muttered as her clones were now charging towards the field of flowers, and their probable doom.

[Ulyanin]

As the fighting began some distance away, Ulyanin was still peeking over and had seen one of the two combatants get much closer to where he was, which made the strange little person nervous as he hopped back; however, his curiosity to see what was happening overcame his fear of being caught in the crossfire which made him venture closer. Scurrying 10 meters North and  West, the fluffy-headed adventurer performed the rat, dog and boar hand seals in order to produce a field of thick mud that was 10 meters by 10 meters in size as he clapped his hands against the ground beneath his feet; performing this technique would provide him with a more suitable place to protect himself, as he made the rat and boar hand seals again before diving into the newly liquified patch of earth.

Now in his little muddy stronghold, Ulyanin shook as popped his head out of the malleable ground, leaving his hair miraculously untouched and as fluffy as it's ever been while he kept a look out for any further development. Despite how how the battle was mutually dangerous for all involved, Ulyanin wanted to learn new things from what he was seeing and, as learning new techniques was always something of a new toy for the childlike person to play around with.

The distance that encompassed Toge from Amira was vast. His clones were vastly outnumbered, much to his general annoyance, but it didn't matter in his eyes. He remained stationary for now. His clones were still within the vicinity of the flowers, however. The clones, without care for their own safety, charged Amira, with Toge spotting an anomaly (extremely vague, however) near the Kazekage. This earned a rather large sigh from Toge. He'd expend a bit more chakra, but...

Then this entire land would be encased with beauty.

The clone in the central most location of them suddenly stopped, the others continuing their advance, however. This doppleganger in his image began expanding at an alarming rate, before seemingly exploding. Once this happened, the clone having been a just slightly fifty meters away from Amira (or at the end of his garden), erupted into vivid colors that littered the sand over the course of one hundred meters from where it had done so. Toge now had absolute field control, possessing one hundred and fifty total meters worth of a "garden". Of course, a technique like that was quite chakra taxing.

Reaching into one of the bags, given the distance, Toge had time to take a quick snack. He pulled out four Campion leaves. Grabbing two, he chewed them as quickly as he could without taking the effect. As a vegan, he had little problem with this task. A moment's wait before he took the other two to take on and consume. He couldn't afford the side effect now, after all.

[Tetsu]

Amira's clones knew exactly what to do as they began to move. Amira now directed her movements with the clones. Taking her Kunai knife out from her back slot quickly she began to wrap both one of her explosive tags and the wire around the blade. As her clones charged forward so did she. Closing her physical gap between Toge and herself. As her clones began to charge towards the field with the blade in hand. Taking a moment to Aim she quickly launched the blade to one of the clones who caught it with ease. It was about this time that the Toge clones began to attempt to move beyond that Amira clones. Using half of her clones to engage the Toge clones. The other half charged towards Toge as off to attempt a head on attack.

The lead clone began to pass Toge's clones as they began to mark intervals. The wire reel continued to unwind as the clones covered the distance. Using the wire as both a diversion and a means for further techniques, Amira quickly began to form handseals as her clones approached Toge.
She finished holding the rat. Kneeling on the ground, before her and around her began to bloom. Her shadow began subtly surge towards Toge secretly. As the clones came within the needed range about 30 meters away from Toge. As her shadow crossed the entirety of the 50 or so meters of wire in a portion of a second, Toge appeared to be putting something into his mouth. "This guy is sure something." She thought as her shadow began to extend along with the wire that the clones now carried. She had more range than just the 89-90 meter distance, and could easily out maneuver Toge.

Using the moment he began to eat the snack of sorts as an opportunity, her shadow began to show Toge that he had no Idea what field control was. Amira thought as her shadow extend towards the now chewing rascal. How long would it take for him to properly chew the leaves, Amira wondered as her shadows rate of 70 meters per second proved to be much faster than ever before. She felt invigorated and ready for combat. Sighing as her shadow extended, Amira quietly muttered "why am I even doing this? this is such a pain..."

[Ulyanin]

Tilting his head in puzzlement, Ulyanin hopped out of his mud field and then waddled ever closer to where the action was taking place, venturing a good 18 meters before seeing the battle of several people; by squinting his left eye hard enough, the wooly-headed little guy saw that the people that were battling were all clones, which prompted watch in wonder and under the assumption that neither combatants actually saw him for whatever reason. However, the fluffy-haired oddball's idle spectating wouldn't last long, as there were clones that were now 20 meters away; the surprise of seeing how close those clones were prompted an explosion of confetti out of Ulyanin's hat that resulted from his shock.

Panicking, the odd fellow once again performed hand seals to create yet another mud field and to another set of hand seals before he hopped into the ground pudding and making it into his own little stronghold. Performing another series of hand seals, Ulyanin released his Vertigo genjutsu at the approaching group of duplicate, as it was the only thing he could do to try and deter them while they were still at a certain distance; it was the childlike youth's hope that the duplicates became disoriented enough to cease their advance or to encourage them to move elsewhere.
