Inoryu Yamanaka vs. Aimi Arisato

[Inoryu]

    {Death Enabled//for practice only} 

    Inoryu's heaband reflectled the Kusa-nin symbol from his neck. He had teal eyes and long dirty blonde hair that was hidden behind his hooded robe. He was an orbital presence of dark gray with green and dark gray horizontal stripes. He had kept his hands tucked in his pockets.     The hooded robe concealed a tanto with a one meter blade; secured on the inside of his robe for easy access, as well as a slot of kunai on the other side. The robe also concealed a butt bag that carried two slots of bo shuriken and another slot of kunai. His trousers matched the dark gray of his robe. His shirt was the same matching color.  
    The breeze was pleasant. He stood among the knee high grass that surrounding him everywhere. This was his homeland. And he trained consistently in the depths of the forest 50 meters west.
    He stood still awaiting the challenger. A fight to the death would ensue as per the terms of agreement. He stood out there in the open, airy field, and watched the breeze brush against the grass. He was alert. He had arrived at the agreed place exactly at the appointed time. Another breeze caressed the land.  

[Aimi Kaguya]

Descending from on high as if dropped from the clouds came Aimi, landing in the knee-high grass and sending a small shockwave of ripples through the blades some twenty meters away from the one who'd challenged him, Inoryu. Standing up, he faced his opponent with determination filling his eyes. The grass settled an the breeze resumed, blowing his golden hair about. He was wearing his usual ensemble of clothing, a white zip-up jacket over a white long sleeved shirt, a pair of blue jeans, a white belt and wrappings around his feet. He had a buttbag on each side of his hip behind him filled with kunai, shuriken and various paper bombs. On his left hip was one of his katana.

His dramatic entrance had been made possible for a simple reason: He'd flown to the occasion. Why walk when you could fly and drop out of the sky to catch the younger lad off his guard? Besides, the world looked so much different from up above. "Listen, are you sure you want to do this?" Aimi asked after a moment of silence had passed. "I ain't responsible for what comes next you know..." With the warning given, he prepared himself to fight.

The holes derive from their source in items that had holes - old coins, washers, and nail-removing tools. This proved convenient for the shuriken user, as well, as the weapons could be strung on a string or dowel in the belt for transport, and the hole also had aerodynamic and weighting effects that aided the flight of the blade after it was thrown. There is a wide variety of forms of hira-shuriken and they are now usually identified by the number of points the blades possess.

[Inoryu]

    Inoryu was genuinely surprised at Aimi's entrance. But the shock only caused Inoryu to scrutinize every detail of his movement and stance. By the way he took the impact of landing, was he limber or was he sturdy? Did he have more body mass or less? By scrutinizing the way he landed from the sky, he hoped he could get a sense of how his opponent moved over all, and what kind of movement he should expect. He figured that because he flew to the occasion, he was adept in some kind of ninjutsu. He also couldn't help but notice the katana strapped to his side. "Of course I'm ready, I wouldn't be here if I wasn't," Inoryu responded. Inoryu stood at a comfortable ten meters away. 

    Inoryu flurried through four handseals and cast his first genjutsu. If Aimi were to believe it, he would see a kunai appear in Inoryu's hand and perceive Inoryu throwing it; aimed directly in between Aimi's eyes, and it would vanish before it hit. It would leave Aimi stunned, and Inoryu would have used that distraction to have settled into his second genjutsu: Invisibility. During the time the first genjutsu was cast, he would have finished the eight hand seals needed to become invisible. After the kunai disappears before Aimi's eyes, he would appear alone in the knee high grass (if invisibility is believed). If the invisibility is disbelieved, Inoryu would settle with preparing a Substitution Jutsu. 

    If Aimi disbelieved the first genjutsu cast and never saw the kunai appear in Inoryu's hand, Inoryu would use 'Invisibility, Swift', to turn himself invisible. He would use that next round to execute the twelve necessary hand seals while still invisible; for the Infinite Mirrors Jutsu. If believed, eight illusory replicas would appear through a distortion of chakra in the air, and the real Inoryu would be hidden visibly within the Infinite Mirrors Jutsu. If The Infinite Mirrors Jutsu is disbelieved, then he would only prepare a Substitution Jutsu.

-Know Check
1st. Genjutsu- Almost Hit Type 2
Rank: "D"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: When the user performs this Jutsu, a weapon non-explosive secondary weapon appears in their hand which can startle and confuse opponents.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: ---
Description: 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 is instantaneous. This technique may be disbelieved once interacted with. The user performs the Jutsu and a weapon non-explosive secondary weapon appears in their hand, the user throws it at the opponent. It looks like a clean throw between the eyes but suddenly disappears right before the hit, leaving the opponent with yellow undergarments. When thrown, the weapon non-explosive secondary weapon flies as with proficiency, but disappears right before hitting the opponent, leaving them shaken for 1 round.
Limit: Must know Figment Perception.

Invisibility
Rank: "C"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: Makes the target they touch invisible.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: ---
Description: Affects anyone who sees the target. The user is able to perform this technique on the target they touch. The duration of this technique lasts for 5 minutes per class level. This technique may be negated. The creature or object touched becomes invisible, vanishing from sight, even from darkvision. If the recipient is a creature carrying gear, that vanishes, too. If the user performs the Jutsu on someone else, neither the user nor their allies can see the subject, unless they can normally see invisible things. Items dropped or put down by an invisible creature become visible; items picked up disappear if tucked into the clothing or pouches worn by the creature. Light, however, never becomes invisible, although a source of light can become so (thus, the effect is that of a light with no visible source). Any part of an item that the subject carries but that extends more than 10 feet from it becomes visible, such as a trailing rope. Of course, the subject is not silenced, and certain other conditions can render the recipient detectable (such as stepping in a puddle). The Jutsu ends if the subject attacks any opponent. For purposes of this Jutsu, an attack includes any Jutsu targeting a foe or whose area or effect includes a foe. Actions directed at unattended objects do not break the Jutsu. Causing harm indirectly is not an attack. Thus, an invisible being can open doors, talk, eat, climb stairs, summon and have them attack. If the subject attacks directly, however, it immediately becomes visible along with all its gear.
Limit: Must know the Glamour Perception.

These Figments may separate from the user or remain in a cluster but must be within the meters radius. The user can move into and through a mirror image. When the user and the images separate, observers can't use vision or hearing to tell which one is the user and which the image. The figments may also move through each other. The figments mimic the user's actions, pretending to perform Jutsus when the user performs Jutsus, drink whenever the user drinks, and so on. While moving, the user can merge with and split off from figments so that enemies who have learned which image is real are again confounded. As long as a Mirror Image is struck it will continue to reproduce an extra until the duration runs out or negated.
Limit: Must know Figment Perception. Must know Mirror Image.

[Aimi Kaguya]

OOC: You've made a mistake! In your post, you put yourself at 10 meters away from me, when in my previous post I specifically said that I landed 20 meters away. This, along with the fact that your first genjutsu's range is currently 19 meters at max (7+6+6) puts me out of range of your first genjutsu. Generally, something like this could an should be exploited, but the fight would be terribly short an boring if I ended it now, so instead I'm just going to act as though the genjutsu doesn't affect me.

Sighing, Aimi closed his eyes an brought his left hand up to the back of his head, rubbing it casually. "If you insist..." he said, opening his eyes again. Seeing Inoryu forming a string of seals, it was apparent to him that he was eager to begin this bout an test his mettle. Young fool. He wasn't going to hold back just because he was a kid.

Acting swiftly, Aimi would send his soul out from his body thirty meters to the right, his body snapping to its location an instant later. From his new position, he'd casually turn to Inoryu and jut his head towards the forest now only twenty meters away from him. "Catch me if you can!" he called out to his young opponent before sending his soul forth and shunting his way ten meters into the forest, putting him in the shade of the jungle trees. He once more shunted his way further into the brush so that he was thirty meters inside, having put a distance of 80 meters between where he had landed to where he was in the forest in a matter of instants.

He had a few moments to spare while Inoryu caught up to him, an he intended to take full advantage of them. Folding his hands together into a string of seals, he took in a breath an exhaled, breathing to life a single, dull ball of flame that gave off a very dim and yet somehow appealing light. In the shade of the trees, it's light would stand out from the sun and act as an appealing lure to Inoryu if he saw it, which Aimi fully intended to make so. With his trap set, Aimi jumped up an away from his ghost-light and into a near by tree, hiding up in the branches high above the ground an channeling chakra throughout his body as well as the power of his soul. He had no intention of going easy, after all. Now all he had to do was wait.

Soul Step
Rank: "B"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: User snaps themselves somewhere within a short range.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Target is Personal. Range is 30 Meters. Duration is Instantaneous. User's soul quickly races from their body and then the user snaps to where the user's soul stops. User's soul makes a 30 meter step (unaffected by gravity or objects) and the user snaps to its spot. Takes a Movement equal in Handseals to Perform, but instantaneous for the effect. If the user's soul is beyond a solid object after the 30 meters and there is no way for the body to follow the user will move to the object and the soul will meet the user there. This ability cannot be used to scout, user's soul only goes where the user told it. If a creature has Chakra Sight, True Seeing, they can see the user's soul as it moves about.
Limit: Must be a Soulcaster. Must know Soul Sway.

Gōsuto Hikari (Ghost-light)
Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Creates a small ball of flame that can be used to guide someone along or get them lost.
Special: Handseals
Drawback: User must be within a certain distance of the flame depending on their rank or else it will go out and the user will have to cast the jutsu again.
Description: The user makes the handseals and creates a small ball of flame in the air in front of them. The flame doesn't give off much heat at all and is not as hot as other fire. Touching this ball of flame will not burn the person touching it in the slightest. Similarly, the light this flame gives off is incredibly dull in comparison to other flames. When someone other than the user gets within a foot of this flame, it will disappear only to reappear two meters away in any direction, chosen by the user. User must be within twenty meters of the flame to keep it sustained, plus ten meters for every rank the user is above "D".
Limit: Fire release

O Ni Bi (Will-o-the Wisp)
Rank: C, additional D rank
Skill: Ninjutsu, supplementary
Effect: Gives the Gōsuto Hikari (Ghost-light) the ability to give off a more prominent and appealing light, letting people see it even in genjutsu induced darkness.
Special: Handseals
Drawback: ---
Description: This jutsu gives the Gōsuto Hikari (Ghost-light) a stronger and more appealing light, allowing it to be seen easier in the dark and giving off a sense of "warmth" that draws those looking at it closer to the flame. This also allows the Gōsuto Hikari (Ghost-light) to be seen through genjutsu induced darkness, though blinding genjutsu are unaffected. The first time learned the user learns how to actually make the flame more alluring without it being a normal flame. The second time learned the user learns how to project it through genjutsu.
Limit: Fire release. Must learn Gōsuto Hikari (Ghost-light) before learning.

[Inoryu]

OOC: Yea, I missed that. Sorry, I'll pay better attention for now on. Thanks for pointing that out. 

    Inoryu's eyes followed Aimi for as quickly as he moved. He witnessed a sort of transportation jutsu of some kind which moved Aimi from one spot to another, thirty meters west towards the forest. "Catch me if you can!" he mused. 
    "You're running away?" Inoryu replied dismissively. He wouldn't fall prey to Aimi's trap so easily. His first round of genjutsu was a spoof, and now if he had any dignity, he was forced into Aimi's game. At least until he had the chance to turn things around again to his favor. Next time there won't be any slip ups. Inoryu went through four hand seals and began spinning in a circle. While he was spinning, five illusory replicas came off from him and went sprinting head on into the forest where Aimi had gone. One stayed behind and began a line of twelve hand seals quickly. The replicas would be used to draw Aimi out from hiding, while the one who stayed behind prepared another jutsu for his defense. He waited while conducting the twelve hand seals, and watching for any sign of his figments being destroyed. They bravely took to the treacherous forests without a second thought. One of them in the cover of the trees had seen a floating ball of fiery light or something or the sort, and he approached it.

Instant Diversion (Illusory Focus +3)

Rank: "D"

Skill: GenJutsu

Effect: Creates Illusory doubles of the user.

Special: "Handseals"

Drawback: ---

Description: Affects anyone who sees the user. The user is able to perform this technique on themselves. The duration of this technique lasts for 5 rounds per class level. This technique may be disbelieved once interacted with. As the user spins around, they produce residual images of themselves, each of which splits off from their body and moves away. 1 + 2 Per Class Level illusory doubles of them appear, spinning off from their original location as they turn in a circle. The user is then free to go elsewhere while their doubles move away in a manner of their choosing. The doubles move at the user's speed and can emit minor sounds such as footsteps or metal clanking, but they can only be made to move, withdraw, or run. Any successful attack against an illusory double destroys it. Figments seem to react normally to area attacks such as looking as though they are being burned alive through a Fire Jutsu.

Limit: Must know the Figment Perception.

(Illusory Focus +2)
Rank: "B"

Skill: GenJutsu

Effect: This Jutsu prepares and stores within them special programmed phantasms geared to protect the user when they find themselves caught unprepared.

The duration of this technique lasts for 50 minutes per class level. This technique may be negated. When a foe attempts to make a sneak attack against the user, or when anyone makes an attack against the user while they are flanked, a phantasm appears to distract the foe. The phantasm is a disturbing image designed to momentarily surprise, confuse, or otherwise distract the attacker. It could be an image of a wounded friend, a terrible monster, a blast of fire, or anything else (the specifics are determined by the attacker’s subconscious, not the user). It appears immediately in front of the attacker. As the phantasm interacts with the attacker directly, the attacker makes an immediate save. If successful, the attack proceeds normally. If not successful, the attack is prevented. The Jutsu creates 5 programmed phantasm per Class Level.

Limit: Must know the Phantasm Perception.

[Aimi Kaguya]

From up in his treetop perch, Aimi could see (the figment of) Inoryo approaching his flame, drawn to it like a moth. Unaware that it was a form of genjutsu that he was looking at, Aimi willed his ghost-light to move forward to meters, vanishing for an instant and reappearing a moment later at the new location. Presumably, he had his attention locked on to it and saw an opening for an attack. Dropping down from his tree top perch in a flash of blurred movement as fast as a shunshin, Aimi immediately took up the standard Bousen stance and unsheathed his sword with blinding speed, striking downward at the back of Inoryu with the intent of cutting him in half an thus down to size.

Presuming that his strike landed, which it likely did and Aimi would see the clone for what it was, Aimi would stand up straight and say to himself, "Genjutsu..." before sheathing his blade and turning on the spot, looking back into the forest to see three more figments heading his way. Smiling, he'd say, "Alright, let's play ghosts an spirits then," before vanishing entirely from sight an sound, seeming to just disappear entirely.

Essentially thinking of this as a game of tag at this point, again presuming that he had manage to defeat the first figment, Aimi would shunt another fifteen meters into the forest, putting him at a 13 meter distance between himself and his first created ghost-light, before forming his hands together into a string of seals and crouching down to the ground, pouring chakra from his hands and igniting the air close to the ground in a thin layer of dull, cool flame that would spread out over a 40 meter area, lighting up the shade of the forest in his cool light. Afterwards, he'd stand up and observe to see what Inoryu an his figments would try to do next.

[Inoryu]

    Inoryu watched from the distance of 80 meters out in the meadows; the forest lit with a dull flame. So it appears he has gone after the figments and has committed to a large jutsu. Inoryu performed eight hand seals and with a push of the wind he became invisible. He rushed towards the forest and left a treading in the grass behind him, but when he reached the trees, he felt his invisibility was complete. He stood at the edge of the forest and he could see where his replicas were scouting. He had four replicas still available to him. They rushed forth into the dull, ghostly flame without hesitation while the real Inoryu, invisible and out of range of the dull flame, only wanted to see Aimi. If I can just set my sights on my target...

    Inoryu went deeper into the forest, but around the ghostly shade as he did so. He circled around half of the perimeter only with hopes of finding Aimi before Aimi finds him. Inoryu noticed that the heated blue substance stayed close to the ground. He went higher up in the trees before moving forward cautiously, out of range of that fire. With less than ten minutes amount of time to be invisible, this was the best chance to find Aimi.

    It was then Inoryu spotted him in his all white clothes and blue jeans, and blond hair. He stood out easily in the foreground of the ghostly forest floor. All of Inoryu's replicas were still in tact as well. With Aimi in his sights, Inoryu came closer down to him so he would be in the range of his jutsu: 60 meters away was the limit, but 50 was all that he needed, Phantasmal Force. 

     Aimi would first see fire ignite the blue flame and cause a burst explosion that knocks him off his feet and ignites the ghostly fire in all of the ground covered. Then a perversion of Inoryu would appear out of the shroud of fire with demonic eyes, fangs like thousands of blades, and claws that were slender and razor sharp. It would clamp on to Aimi's right shoulder with its mouth, and thrust his razor sharp claws through his ribs and thus Aimi would be in extreme pain and paralyzed. He would perceive the agony of this and be incapable of moving unless he could somehow fight off the perceptions in the illusion. Soon Inoryu would go in for the kill.

Invisibility

Rank: "C"

Skill: GenJutsu

Effect: Makes the target they touch invisible.

Special: "Handseals"

Drawback: ---

Description: Affects anyone who sees the target. The user is able to perform this technique on the target they touch. The duration of this technique lasts for 5 minutes per class level. This technique may be negated. The creature or object touched becomes invisible, vanishing from sight, even from darkvision. If the recipient is a creature carrying gear, that vanishes, too. If the user performs the Jutsu on someone else, neither the user nor their allies can see the subject, unless they can normally see invisible things. Items dropped or put down by an invisible creature become visible; items picked up disappear if tucked into the clothing or pouches worn by the creature. Light, however, never becomes invisible, although a source of light can become so (thus, the effect is that of a light with no visible source). Any part of an item that the subject carries but that extends more than 10 feet from it becomes visible, such as a trailing rope. Of course, the subject is not silenced, and certain other conditions can render the recipient detectable (such as stepping in a puddle). The Jutsu ends if the subject attacks any opponent. For purposes of this Jutsu, an attack includes any Jutsu targeting a foe or whose area or effect includes a foe. Actions directed at unattended objects do not break the Jutsu. Causing harm indirectly is not an attack. Thus, an invisible being can open doors, talk, eat, climb stairs, summon and have them attack. If the subject attacks directly, however, it immediately becomes visible along with all its gear.

Limit: Must know the Glamour Perception.

Phantasmal Force

Rank: "D"

Skill: GenJutsu

Effect: With this Jutsu the user can create a phantasmal image that torments the foes.

Special: "Handseals"

Drawback: ---

Description: A Fear, Mind-Affecting Technique. Affects 1 creature. The user is able to perform this technique at a distance of 30 meters plus 15 meters per class level. The duration of this technique lasts for 5 rounds per class level. This technique may be negated. The phantasmal force has the same movements as the user while it deals "D" Rank of subdual damage on each successful attack. Note that because the phantasm is inside the creature's mind the phantasm can always make a full round attack of 3 movements per round. If disbelieved or if the creature leaves the user's line of sight the phantasmal force immediately dissipates.

Limit: Must know the Phantasm Perception.

[Aimi Kaguya]

OOC: That's 2 mistakes you've made so far. Aimi is completely invisible right now, immune to any forms of observation. The jutsu's only broken if he attacks. Setting up a jutsu, especially one that isn't actually capable of hurting a person, is not an attack. Ya got 1 more~

With his jutsu set up, Aimi stood and shunted another thirty meters to the left of his person, putting him towards the edge of his creeping ghost-light. There, he watched as the four Inoryu, presume figments and not the real one, rushed headlong into his dull blue fire. He doubted that the real one would just rush headlong into a blanket of fire without knowing that it would hurt him first, and given that the first one had been a clone he felt safe in assuming that they were fakes as well. They seemed to go down easily enough though, so how to proceed?

Thus far, he'd only seen what he assumed was genjutsu out of Inoryu, though he coudln't positively identify it. That told him that Inoryu was afraid of close combat, or else was just bad at it. If he could get in close, or perhaps force him into a corner of some kind, he'd undoubtedly have an advantage. The question was - how to find the real one?

First, he wanted to deal with the fakes. Once again getting into the stance, Aimi took a step back and unleashed his blade with such a speed an ferocity that it cut through not just the air but the skin of reality itself, leaving behind huge six meter tall gashes in the air that ripped through the figments, revealing himself in the process. It was only for an instant though, as as soon as his attack was unleashed he would jump backwards and vanish once again into thin air, sheathing his blade once he landed outside of the creeping ghost-light.

Stepping behind the first tree he came across, about a meter or so away from the blanket of blue fire, Aimi folded his hands together into a string of seals and sent his chakra forth to the creeping fire, reshaping it into fifty orbs of flame - fifty one if you count the single one he'd made by himself. The blanket of fire tore itself apart and lifted up into the air, individual patches folding in on themselves to make the orbs of bouncy flame. As soon as they were finished, he made another string of seals and spread his chakra among all fifty of the orbs he'd created, commanding them in a sense to head in every direction, seeking sources of body heat.

With that done, Aimi jumped ten feet up into the tree and clung to the side of the trunk using his chakra, moving around to the side so that he could watch his jutsu carefully. If Inoryu was anywhere near his set trap before then, kept invisible somehow by some jutsu or perhaps just hiding, he'd know the second one of his ghost-lights veered off course. The young lad likely wouldn't know that this fire was dangerous either, although he could still assume as much, since it hadn't left the ground scorched in its wake. Either way, he watched carefully for a sign of his opponent.

Kinobori no Waza - Act of Tree Climbing
Rank: "C"
Skill: NinJutsu/Supplementary
Effect: Allows a Non-Ninja the ability to perform Advanced chakra techniques.
Special: ---
Drawback: Non Ninjas must learn in order to learn Advanced chakra techniques. Ninjas gain this technique for free in the beginning however does not add into Character Class like other starting techniques. Does not work on Animal Companions.
Description: Kinobori no Waza, the art of tree climbing serves a dual purpose. Taking part in Kinobori Shugyou (Tree Climbing Training) helps a ninja learn how to focus their chakra. It also teaches the ninja how to run up trees and walk on vertical walls. The training helps the ninja learn how to focus just the right amount of chakra to a particular part of their body. The amount needed to climb is small but it must be precise. The feet are regarded as the hardest location to master chakra focusing. So by gaining the art of this skill, the ninja will have any jutsu available (theoretically) because they will be able to focus their chakra as needed. Allows a user to learn up to "C" Rank Chakra related Techniques.
Limit: Universal NinJutsu Technique.

[Inoryu]

OOC: Sorry, I'll get better at this. Consider yourself my RP Teacher for now. 

    There was no sign of Aimi anywhere, but Inoryu watched from below the fire fold onto itself and form more of those ghostly fire orbs. They were slow moving things in the shadows of the forest bring a blue hue to all that surrounded it. They went in all directions, including upwards where Inoryu was. But they were moving so slow, and he was so high up, he had time.
    So far, I've only seen his ninjutsu, and its safe to say he uses the fire release. But he can also move at an extremely fast pace, disappearing from one place and appearing at another. Thirty meters is probably his limit. Still that makes this forest that more dangerous for me. He has an agility that I can't even compare with and he has a katana to couple it with. And who knows what he is capable of with that katana. Inoryu bit his thumb nail. The orbs were slowly creeping on him, noticing him almost. 
    Inoryu moved and the orbs slowly began to follow. At the slightest hint of this, he moved to keep his distance. This would draw him out for sure. Inoryu wouldn't allow the ghostly orbs to touch him, no matter what, but he expected Aimi to try and come slash him with his katana.

Effect: This Jutsu prepares and stores within them special programmed phantasms geared to protect the user when they find themselves caught unprepared.

Special: "Handseals"

Drawback: ---

Description: A Mind-Affecting Technique. Affects anyone who interacts with the user. The user is able to perform this technique on themselves. The duration of this technique lasts for 50 minutes per class level. This technique may be negated. When a foe attempts to make a sneak attack against the user, or when anyone makes an attack against the user while they are flanked, a phantasm appears to distract the foe. The phantasm is a disturbing image designed to momentarily surprise, confuse, or otherwise distract the attacker. It could be an image of a wounded friend, a terrible monster, a blast of fire, or anything else (the specifics are determined by the attacker’s subconscious, not the user). It appears immediately in front of the attacker. As the phantasm interacts with the attacker directly, the attacker makes an immediate save. If successful, the attack proceeds normally. If not successful, the attack is prevented. The Jutsu creates 5 programmed phantasm per Class Level.

Limit: Must know the Phantasm Perception.

[Aimi Kaguya]

OOC: Step one: Keep your vigil at all times. Mistakes like those could get you killed ICly.

IC:

There! Up in the trees away from him at almost the opposite side, his ghost-lights shifted their course, giving away Inoryu's location. He couldn't see him though. Was it more genjtusu? Or perhaps he was a soulcaster like himself? It was bothersome that he couldn't see him, but it wasn't impossible to work around. If he couldn't see Inoryu, he'd simply smoke him out. Lowering the goggles from atop his head and jumping up from off of his tree trunk, Aimi's soul sprouted wings and carried him aloft, flying upwards a good twenty meters above the tree line before coming to a stop.

He looked down at where his blue flames were at, slowly but steadily making progress towards their target. There were about three of them thus far and he needed to act quickly before anything happened to them. Folding his hands together into a quick string of seals, Aimi took in a deep breath and shot out a massive fireball at the tree that his ghostly orbs were floating towards, exploding once it came into contact with the tree an setting it ablaze, the fire attracting many of the other ghostly blue orbs.

Though he had made himself visible again, he didn't think it would matter so much. The blaze would likely spread quickly and drive Inoryu out from the tree if nothing else, and while many of his dull blue flames would crowd towards the fire, perhaps upwards to thirty even, the remaining twenty would continue moving away from it in all directions to seek out other sources of heat. If Inoryu came close to any of them, he'd know where he was. All the same, he didn't intend to just stay up in the air the entire time. Still, while he was up in the air and could see, he could more or less throw guided missiles at Inoryu... or just set the entire forest ablaze, whichever was faster.

Effect: The user is capable of performing a few handseals in which gives them the capability of
blowing a large body of fire in size of a large sphere that has great fire proportions and explosive capabilities.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: Depending on the Rank, is dependent on how strong or how much the user is
capable of doing with the Goukakyuu no Jutsu.
Description: The user quickly performs a few handseals. The user then places the hand over their mouth creating a small like circle. This technique in turn is then to help the user control the great flame. The use then blows out and creates a large fireball that twice the size of a normal human body. When the "C" Rank version is first learned the user is only capable of blowing out the Great Fireball that is cannot be moved or go anywhere else. This also means that the technique does not explode in a fiery explosion, but burns greatly to anyone that is caught within the technique. When the user learns the "B" Rank version then the user is capable blowing the Great Fireball into the distance, sending it away from the use it to hurl towards the very opponent. This technique is only capable of going into a straight line and this is capable of having the size three times the size of a human body. This technique when launched at an opponent then becomes dangerous because at this point the technique can explode causing damage that is even more devastating.
Limit: Must have the Fire Release

[Inoryu]

    Fire amassed from all directions. The fireball was massive and there was an explosion when it hit the tree. But Inoryu was able to evade the fire by using his surroundings. In one movement, he had let himself fall ten meters, caught a branch, and swung himself to the trunk of an ancient tree beside him. He looked up, the devastation was pertinent. He guarded himself and was hit by the fiery embers of debris. 
    Aimi had reappeared, but there was nothing Inoryu could do, there were ghostly fireballs creeping in on him. He noticed it when it singed his back. Inoryu had been too distracted by the grand fireball that Aimi had amassed and one of the ghostly little balls had sneaked up on him, and there were still four more creeping in on him. He was certainly feeling the pressure. He sifted through four hand seals, and by the time the four ghostly fireballs enrapture him, he was long gone; and in his place was a log from the surrounding area left with black marks where the ghostly orbs had burned. 
    Inoryu had no choice but to fight back somehow. If he tried to run, he would be cornered and smothered in those things. Inoryu had to trap Aimi somehow. He sifted his hands through twelve hand seals and released his Invisibility Jutsu. Inoryu stood out in plain sight a good distance away from the orbs on the forest floor and he called out for Aimi, "Hey you!" and as soon as Aimi would see him, Aimi would be caught in a genjutsu. He would perceive pillars rising from the forest floor and snaking through the forest to stick him; one for each limb and one through the chest. He would begin to fall, and that would be Inoryu's opening to attack.

Kawarimi no Jutsu (Body Switch Skill)

Rank: "E"

Skill: Ninjutsu

Effect: The Replacement technique. A technique where one quickly replaces their body with an animal or an object by making it seem like they were attacked, this usually distracts and confuses an enemy and create a chance to attack.

The Background must be explained correctly in order to perform. The user may not switch with an object on them, only something around them. The technique only works within a distance of five meters from the user. Objects changed may only be of at the most two feet in different fo size. A user may not perform this technique, and perform other techniques after because it gives out the position of the user. This technique does not work on area effect techniques that exceed the user's capabilities of performing Kawarimi no Jutsu (Body Switch Skill)

Description: The Kawarimi no Jutsu, allows a ninja to dodge attacks, whether they are weapons such as kunai, ninjutsu, taijutsu, or any other attack type. Coupled with other jutsu, it can be very effective in confusing your opponent, and catching them off-guard. The only downside, is it often takes a strategic mind to effectively utilize it, not that it can't be useful in the hands of an inexperienced ninja.

Limit: An academy Jutsu that all is capable of performing if they wish to do so.
