Gardener's Square [Konoha Participants only]

[Minoru Hyuuga]

"CALM DOWN!? I'll calm down when you lot are out of my sight! Away with you! Go bother someone else!" roared the man while he walked closer to the younger man.

Minoru backed away so he did not get hit with that hammer. He made sure to maintain a distance of ten feet between the duo. A part of him wanted to attack, but he was here for an investigation. The guy knew he had to be professional. "Bye then" muttered the Chuunin as he walked away from the cooper.

He did not turn his back until he was twenty feet away. 'Jeez. Someone's forgotten to take their pills today' concluded the male while he walked towards his partner.
"Well, that didn't help much. But I am a little suspicious about that guy" muttered the black-haired guy when they were out of his ear shot.

"I never told him that I was investigating a murder. But rumour may be running fast in this village. I think we should use Toshio-kun or our doujutsu to search through his house later on.
We have one more house to look through. Maybe we can do a quick check there before we continue. What do you say?" inquired the guy while he looked at Kyodai.

His animal companion was a bit more skittish than usual. Toshio was not used to humans roaring while flailing something that could easily halve his size. His other animal companion was flying above them like a white ghost of some sort.
She had seen the whole commotion, but had decided not to react. It seemed like the humans were handling things fine.

Jutsus and skills used [Minoru]:


Byakugan. Has learned the jutsu four times.
Rank: “C” Rank (special, see description).
Skill: Ninjutsu.
Effect: An jutsu when activating allows the user the ability to constantly see chakra.
Special: ---
Drawback: May learn at a maximum of 5 times.
Description: An eye jutsu for the Hyūga clan. When activating the user's eyes dilate in the same white colour as veins bulge out of the corner of the eyes. The user can activate this technique as a “C” Rank technique taking up hand seals. The user is able to see through and thus ignore lighter forms of concealment, such as smoke or mist. The user may concentrate for an amount of hand seals equal to a “C” Rank technique while their byakugan is active to gain the see chakra and see through chakra effects for as long as the user concentrates and their byakugan remains active. Deactivating this ability takes up no movements. When the user learns this technique the first two times, they train it as a regular “C” Rank jutsu. When the user learns this technique the second two times, they train it as a “C” Rank jutsu +10 training points. When the user learns this technique the last time, they train it as a “C” Rank jutsu +20 training points.
Limit: Must be in the Hyūga clan.


Telescopic eye. Range: 50 meters.
Rank: “C” Rank (special, see description).
Skill: Supplementary.
Effect: The user is able to see much further than normal and access an X-Ray ability.
Special: ---
Drawback: Must have the byakugan active. May learn up to ∞ times.
Description: When concentrating to see through chakra, the character can also spend time equal to hand seals to gain the ability to see through objects with X-ray like vision up to 10 meters from the user. This does not impede the user's line of sight and the distance a user can normally see, however they simply will not be able to use the X-ray ability beyond 10 meters. When the user first learns this technique the user trains it as a regular “C” Rank jutsu. Each additional training allows the user to use the X-Ray ability for an additional 10 meters. For every 50 meters, the user trains an additional +10 training points added to their previous training. The user also suffers a penalty to observation checks every 15 meters instead of every 3 meters. If user loses an eye (has 1 eye) telescopic eye is reduced by 50%. Future learning also reduces distance by 50%.
Limit: Must be in the Hyūga clan. Must know byakugan.


All-seeing eye. Range: 10 meters.
Rank: “B” Rank.
Skill: Supplementary.
Effect: The user sees all that is around them and nothing can escape their all-seeing eye.
Special: ---
Drawback: User gains a small blind spot located at the back of the neck above the first thoracic vertebra.
Description: Taking the time of a “B” Rank technique in hand seals, the user may activate this technique. By activating this ability, the byakugan gives the user a near 360° field of vision, except for one blind spot at the back of the neck above the first thoracic vertebrae. The distance of this vision is 1/5th of the user's knowledge in telescopic eye (maximum distance 40 meters). Please note that the further the user may see, the larger the blind spot becomes. User is still subject to eye attacks.
Limit: Must be in the Hyūga clan.


Improved uncanny dodge.
Rank: “A” Rank.
Skill: Supplementary.
Effect: The user can no longer be flanked.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: This defense denies an opponent the ability to sneak attack the character by flanking them, unless the opponent has at least 4 more class points than the target does. class points is the invisible number found in between class levels.

* 5,500 to infinite training points: There is 1 class point every 800 training points.
* Total for Minoru [7140 TP]: 9 class points.

Example: User has improved uncanny dodge with 535 training points. An opponent with 900 training points can still perform sneak attacks while flanking the user.
Example: User has improved uncanny dodge with 1,660 training points. An opponent with 2,100 training points cannot perform sneak attacks while flanking the user.
Limit: Must learn from a master of burēdono kenseijin. Must know uncanny dodge.


Sense motive. Level: Advanced [63/125].
Rank: “E” Rank.
Skill: Skill.
Effect: User is skilled at detecting falsehoods and true intentions.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: A successful check lets you avoid being bluffed (see the acting skill). The user can also use this skill to determine when "something is up" (that is, something odd is going on) or to assess someone's trustworthiness. Sense motive does not, however, allow a character to determine whether a given statement is a lie. In addition, a character can use this skill to make an assessment of a social situation. With a successful check (very difficult difficulty), the character can get the feeling from another's behaviour that something is wrong. Also, the character can get the feeling that someone is trustworthy and honourable. A sense motive check may be made as a reaction to another character's acting check. Try again: No, though user may make a sense motive check for each acting check made against the user. Look in task skills thread found in the skills and traits index for more information. If user has 25 or more ranks in evidence analysis user gains a synergy bonus +10 to sense motive. If user has 25 or more ranks in cultures user gains a synergy bonus +10 to sense motive when interacting with someone of said culture. Each time learned user gets 1 die roll to increase the skill.
Limit: ---


Acting. Level: Expert [76/125].
Rank: “E” Rank (5 TP at all times).
Skill: Skill.
Effect: Acting enables a character to skilfully portray various roles.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Acting is most often used as a form of entertainment, though it can also be useful in aiding a disguise or pulling a scam. A skilled actor knows how to research their role in order to provide a realistic portrayal to include mannerisms, speech patterns, dialect or jargon. The acting skill also confers a cumulative 5% bonus (per level above unskilled) to disguise skill check rolls. The list below gives examples of mastery and what the character can do.

• Expert: Can independently 'invent' a role such as a lord, member of a cult, wealthy merchant, etc., and can dress and act the part with such skill that he can pass as that person.

Each time learned user gets 1 die roll to increase the skill.
Limit: ---



Jutsus and skills used [Toshio]:


Scent.
Rank: “D”, “C” Rank.
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 two meters of the source, the creature pinpoints the source’s location. When finding herbs and animals (random), scent may improve searching for them (must have Scent of object previously before searching). Learning “D” Rank allows the user to search for common things, while “S” Rank 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.


Detect evil.
Rank: “C” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: A technique where an animal companion is able to sense if there is evil in a person by using their animal instincts.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: An animal has a keen sense that no other person has. With this type of keen sense it can read one's body type, feel the intentions emitting from the body, as well as get an understanding of everything. It doesn't matter what a person does, the way they stand, how calm they are, how much they move, how they walk, or even the heartbeat of the person, an animal is able to sense the type of person they are. With this technique the animal is capable of figuring out of the person is perhaps an evil intentioned character. This will help the animal feel threatened or feel more at eased, or to perhaps not even care or feel if one is perhaps suspicious in some way.
Limit: Must have an animal companion.


Sekondo nen (Second sense) [10 + 20].
Rank: “D”, “C” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: The brawler depending on the rank of the technique the user is capable of reacting through subconscious mind against attacks against the user in different manners such as being flanked, and from behind. This technique makes the brawler incapable of being surprise attacked.
Special: ---
Drawback: The user may only learn this technique by the class that they are. This means that in order to learn the “C” Rank version they must be “C” Class, if they wish to learn the “B” Rank version they must be “B” Class.
Description: A technique where the subconscious mind, where the subconscious body reacts just as they are attacked while flanked or while their back is turn. The body reacts in such a way to where they are capable of withstanding so much. This technique makes it where the brawler is incapable of being surprised attacked, a sudden second sense kicks in as their body screams out to them yelling at them telling them to move, duck, dodge or anything else within that manner. If an opponent comes to a brawler at a bar, and attacks with a sword, or a club, the brawler gains the urge to dodge to the left, or to the right, where they are capable of reacting before the action is completed. This works on whenever they are being attacked. This technique however has a major flaw. The user is capable of dodging only whenever the opponent's class is equal or lower to that of the rank of the technique they know. This means that a “D” Class user that knows this technique can not use this against an opponent that is “C” Class or higher.
Limit: Must be a brawler.



Prepared in case of emergency:


Hakkeshou: Daikaiten (Hands of the eight divination: Great whirl).
Rank: “B” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: An advanced version of hakkeshou: kaiten, the user releases a greater amount of chakra from their tenketsu while spinning like a top, creating a defensive chakra dome of a greater size.
Special: --
Drawback: --
Description: The user begins to spin like a top, excreting chakra from their tenketsu at a much higher level than the hakkeshou: kaiten. This creates a dome of spinning chakra that will repel or stop taijutsu, projectiles, and ninjutsu of “B” rank or less. The radius of the giant dome is ten meters, and is capable of blowing opponents backward up to fifteen meters.
Limit: Must learn from a jyuuken teacher or at the Hyuuga mansion. Must be a Hyuuga. Must know hakkeshou: kaiten and jyuuken advanced stance. Main house only.

[Kyodai Hyuuga]

Kyodai stayed behind and away from the irate man until Minoru was in the clear then he rushed to join up with the Chunnin as they walked back to the houses. " Suspicious yes. Anyways, your cat has a scent trail. " Kyodai spoke in a low subvocalize whisper to Minoru. Kyodai filed the reaction away in his near perfect memory and then just kind of went back to reviewing facts. Something was still bothering him about how the facts were adding up but he didn't know what. There was some clue he had overlooked maybe.

[Minoru Hyuuga]

"Suspicious yes. Anyways, your cat has a scent trail." told the other guy. The male looked down at the animal he held in his arms. Minoru let the creature down on the ground.
"All right Toshio-kun. You can take the lead" told the man in a low voice after he had made sure nobody could hear them.

Toshio started sniffing in the air around him to get the trail. The Chuunin suddenly hear a familiar sound from above. He smiled when he saw that his other animal companion was sitting at the roof on the house across the street.
His other animal friend had apparently found the trail. The male would start following the Abyssinian once he had located the scent.

The black-haired guy tried to make it look like he was just walking around with his cat. He had seen quite a few people doing that. It would not look that odd given that he loved his feline friend.
'I wonder where he will take us. But we better be prepared...things won't get pretty' thought the guy while checking the surroundings with his all-seeing eyes.

[Solus]

A

t the site you could not find any new clues, save for the scent trail that the Abyssinian cat had found. It led from the bushes to the palisade, which ran directly behind the house. There was a path here, tucked against the palisade, probably the result of the sheriff and his deputies patrolling here every day. A few scuffs of blood were to be found, seeped into the woodwork. As if a bloodied object had been dragged along the wall horizontally for half a meter or so. Finally you came to the North-North-East side, where an artesian well flowed into the village through a crack in the rocks. Here, where the palisade moved over the rocks, and was as a result about a meter shorter due to being imposed on the rocks whilst remaining the same height relative to the neighbouring sections of wall.

At this place the trail did not stop however. It went straight up and over the wall. Long vertically orientated claw marks could be seen in the wall. Someone had used a Tekagi-shuko like claw to climb the palisade in a matter of seconds. For the cat it would of course only be a matter of seconds to top the palisade, for the two of you it would be a bit more work. On the other side the trail continued, bending off towards the North-East towards the forest.

Towards the North you could see the hut again of the hunter, the animal he had gutted now hanging there to bleed dry, whereas the man himself seemed to have retreated to his cabin, judging by the smoke rising from his chimney. The scent trail would however take you far to the right of the hut. Scuff marks and flattened grass, but no discernible footprints dotted the trail here, leading along with the scent trail to the forest. However, only a mere five meters into the treeline the scent would already dissolve among the many other scents of the forest. Even though the time was just before noon little light filtered into the forest. The stalks of the trees grew up to the skies, spreading out in a wide canopy that blacked out all sunlight. Dry leaves blanketed the ground in a thick layer, making it nigh impossible to track by use of footprints. If there ever had been traces of a trail of footprints the wind had reorganised all the leaves since your target had passed, removing all traces of travel. It seemed you would need to apply other methods to track the target further into the forest.

Putting this here again to make it easier on myself xD

[Minoru Hyuuga]

It looked like the animal had found the scent trail. The male followed him to the palisade behind the house. He noticed that there was blood on the woodwork nearby.
'Looks like we're on the right path. I better prepare myself for a possible fight' thought Minoru as he went towards the artesian well.

Toshio meowed while he looked up the wall. The young man noticed that there were claw marks. Someone had probably used a tekagi-shuko or something similar to climb the wall.
He picked up his animal friend and walked up the wall like most shinobis would do. 'The person who climbed up must have been in very good shape' thought the Chuunin as he reached the other side.

The Abyssinian sniffed at the ground around them before he re-discovered the trail. It went to the north-east this time. The male soon saw the hut that probably belonged to a hunter.
His animal friend curled up in fear when he saw the gutted animals. The black-haired guy could not blame him since he felt a little sick himself.

Smoke was coming from the chimney - someone was home. Toshio soon found the trail again and lead him to the right side of the hut. The guy made sure to move quietly while moving between the trees.
The lack of sunlight would make it harder for the person inside the hut to spot him. 'I wonder what we'll find' pondered Minoru as he followed his animal companion.

The distance of this vision is 1/5th of the user's knowledge in telescopic eye (maximum distance 40 meters). Please note that the further the user may see, the larger the blind spot becomes. User is still subject to eye attacks.
Limit: Must be in the Hyūga clan.


Improved uncanny dodge.
Rank: “A” Rank.
Skill: Supplementary.
Effect: The user can no longer be flanked.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: This defense denies an opponent the ability to sneak attack the character by flanking them, unless the opponent has at least 4 more class points than the target does. class points is the invisible number found in between class levels.

* 5,500 to infinite training points: There is 1 class point every 800 training points.
* Total for Minoru [7140 TP]: 9 class points.

Example: User has improved uncanny dodge with 535 training points. An opponent with 900 training points can still perform sneak attacks while flanking the user.

Sense motive. Level: Advanced [63/125].
Rank: “E” Rank.
Skill: Skill.
Effect: User is skilled at detecting falsehoods and true intentions.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: A successful check lets you avoid being bluffed (see the acting skill). The user can also use this skill to determine when "something is up" (that is, something odd is going on) or to assess someone's trustworthiness. Sense motive does not, however, allow a character to determine whether a given statement is a lie. In addition, a character can use this skill to make an assessment of a social situation. With a successful check (very difficult difficulty), the character can get the feeling from another's behaviour that something is wrong. Also, the character can get the feeling that someone is trustworthy and honourable. A sense motive check may be made as a reaction to another character's acting check. Try again: No, though user may make a sense motive check for each acting check made against the user. Look in task skills thread found in the skills and traits index for more information. If user has 25 or more ranks in evidence analysis user gains a synergy bonus +10 to sense motive. If user has 25 or more ranks in cultures user gains a synergy bonus +10 to sense motive when interacting with someone of said culture. Each time learned user gets 1 die roll to increase the skill.

Acting. Level: Expert [76/125].
Rank: “E” Rank (5 TP at all times).
Skill: Skill.
Effect: Acting enables a character to skilfully portray various roles.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Acting is most often used as a form of entertainment, though it can also be useful in aiding a disguise or pulling a scam. A skilled actor knows how to research their role in order to provide a realistic portrayal to include mannerisms, speech patterns, dialect or jargon. The acting skill also confers a cumulative 5% bonus (per level above unskilled) to disguise skill check rolls. The list below gives examples of mastery and what the character can do.

• Expert: Can independently 'invent' a role such as a lord, member of a cult, wealthy merchant, etc., and can dress and act the part with such skill that he can pass as that person.

Each time learned user gets 1 die roll to increase the skill.

Jutsus and skills used [Toshio]:


Scent.
Rank: “D”, “C” Rank.
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 two meters of the source, the creature pinpoints the source’s location. When finding herbs and animals (random), scent may improve searching for them (must have Scent of object previously before searching). Learning “D” Rank allows the user to search for common things, while “S” Rank 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.


Detect evil.
Rank: “C” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: A technique where an animal companion is able to sense if there is evil in a person by using their animal instincts.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: An animal has a keen sense that no other person has. With this type of keen sense it can read one's body type, feel the intentions emitting from the body, as well as get an understanding of everything. It doesn't matter what a person does, the way they stand, how calm they are, how much they move, how they walk, or even the heartbeat of the person, an animal is able to sense the type of person they are. With this technique the animal is capable of figuring out of the person is perhaps an evil intentioned character. This will help the animal feel threatened or feel more at eased, or to perhaps not even care or feel if one is perhaps suspicious in some way.
Limit: Must have an animal companion.


Sekondo nen (Second sense) [10 + 20].
Rank: “D”, “C” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: The brawler depending on the rank of the technique the user is capable of reacting through subconscious mind against attacks against the user in different manners such as being flanked, and from behind. This technique makes the brawler incapable of being surprise attacked.
Special: ---
Drawback: The user may only learn this technique by the class that they are. This means that in order to learn the “C” Rank version they must be “C” Class, if they wish to learn the “B” Rank version they must be “B” Class.
Description: A technique where the subconscious mind, where the subconscious body reacts just as they are attacked while flanked or while their back is turn. The body reacts in such a way to where they are capable of withstanding so much. This technique makes it where the brawler is incapable of being surprised attacked, a sudden second sense kicks in as their body screams out to them yelling at them telling them to move, duck, dodge or anything else within that manner. If an opponent comes to a brawler at a bar, and attacks with a sword, or a club, the brawler gains the urge to dodge to the left, or to the right, where they are capable of reacting before the action is completed. This works on whenever they are being attacked. This technique however has a major flaw. The user is capable of dodging only whenever the opponent's class is equal or lower to that of the rank of the technique they know. This means that a “D” Class user that knows this technique can not use this against an opponent that is “C” Class or higher.
Limit: Must be a brawler.



Prepared in case of emergency:


Hakkeshou: Daikaiten (Hands of the eight divination: Great whirl).
Rank: “B” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: An advanced version of hakkeshou: kaiten, the user releases a greater amount of chakra from their tenketsu while spinning like a top, creating a defensive chakra dome of a greater size.
Special: --
Drawback: --
Description: The user begins to spin like a top, excreting chakra from their tenketsu at a much higher level than the hakkeshou: kaiten. This creates a dome of spinning chakra that will repel or stop taijutsu, projectiles, and ninjutsu of “B” rank or less. The radius of the giant dome is ten meters, and is capable of blowing opponents backward up to fifteen meters.
Limit: Must learn from a jyuuken teacher or at the Hyuuga mansion. Must be a Hyuuga. Must know hakkeshou: kaiten and jyuuken advanced stance. Main house only.

[Kyodai Hyuuga]

Kyodai followed closely to the Chunnin. In bthis the Chunnin had much more experience than he did and he recognized that. Kyodai was rarely in fights and felt more comfortable in their hospital or at least their village. He had little trouble getting over the fence but it obviously took someone with good shape to have done it. That was another point to add his growing mental list. 

Kyodai moved as quietly as he could as he followed Minoru and the cat. When they stopped and was looking at the smoking chimney, Kyodai drew out a pair of Kunai just in case. The likely hood that they were close to who had done it was drastically higher. They now had two good suspects the Cooper and whoever was in the hut. 

[Solus]

F

rom the distance you could hear a long howl, shortly thereafter picked up by others, creating a sinister chorus of the wilds. At the edge of his vision from the Byakugan could see them flash between the trees, although with the distances the glimpses were no more than shadows drifting fleetly between the stems. Wolves and a good many of them. They were however only fifty meters away from you and thus only fifty meters away from the forest edge. For wolves they were quite impertinent to move so close to the hunter’s hut. A rare move for an animal that was usually so shy and intelligent enough to remain at a large distance. It was however impossible to see if they were kiting and screening you or if this was a pack moving in close…

SPOILER: Click to show

Okay guys, you really need to be more clear about your actions. Are you entering the hut, are you going deeper into the forest? From your posts, I really cannot tell. From what I can see you’re standing still at the forest edge without doing much?

[Minoru Hyuuga]

((OOC: I was trying to walk towards the hut, not into it. I'll try to be more clear from now on. Let me know if I have written something I shouldn't have))

A sinister howl made the smaller animal companion flatten itself towards the ground. Toshio had already climbed up a tree four feet behind his owner in an attempt to avoid getting caught. 'If Toshio-kun is that scared, it must be BAD' thought the male as he scanned his surroundings.
His byakugan suddenly saw something move fifty meters away from them. It looked like a large dog at first glance.

'Wait - that can't be a large dog. They look more feral' observed Minoru. He swallowed when he saw a few others move behind him.
'They can't be dogs. THEY'RE WOLVES!' realized the young man when he got a good look at one of them.

'I wonder why they're so close to the hut. Have they caught the smell of something? Or maybe they are the pets of the person living here?
That doesn't matter. I need to keep us safe...especially Toshio-kun who is unable to fly away or fight back' thought the Chuunin.

"Stay calm guys. I have a perfect jutsu to use if they get too close. I won't let them hurt us as long as I can fight" told the male.
They were fifty meters away from the forest edge. The duo had to get closer to the hut if they wanted to solve this mystery.

The black-haired guy decided to take a step back. He knew that wolves could not climb and his animal partner needed reassurance. His byakugan was looking at the animals to see if there was anything weird going on.
'Let's see what they're going to do. I will probably send them running and call for reinforcements if I attack them first' deduced the guy.

Minoru took a slow step backwards. He was now two feet away from the tree where his Abyssinian sat. There were two options now.
The male could climb up the tree if the wolves did not attack. But if they attacked, he would use the daikaiten first to get an opening.

[Kyodai Hyuuga]

Kyodai raised his eyebrow as he spotted the wolves. It would be best if they didn't have to fight a wolf pack. In a whispered voice to Minoru. "I got the wolves if you can investigate the Hut. " Without words or even hand seals two things happen as Kyodai stepped around Minoru and placed himself as a barrier between the Wolves and Minoru and his animals. The first was his hands suddenly lit on fire as he took a weird stance that was a mix of Aikido, Krav Maga, and Jyuuken. The second was to Minoru's special eyes Kyodai formed thin razor sharp scapels in each hand. 

Kyodai the poked himself in a few places, key places to harden his nerves against pain and make himself harder to bring down. Kyodai was a very skilled medical ninja and he used that skill to take someone or something apart as well as put together. HE waited for the wolves to make the first move. But if they were a normal pack they should be scared off by the sudden fire literally around his hands.

[Solus]

S

trangely enough the wolves did not seem to be deterred by the fire in any way. One of the wolves seemed to be most impetuous, darting closer and closer between the trees. It was no larger than the others, but its fur was jet black instead of the ordinary mottled grey. You could not distinguish its eyes, from being as black as night like its coat. Suddenly, about 36 meters away from you it disappeared. The other wolves were still, there, now also at 36 meters and closing, but the black one was gone!

Whereas a normal person would have been helpless at this moment both Hyuuga would be able to see it clearly through their all seeing Byakugan. The light cast by Kyodau created a shadow on the upper side of a branch only two meters above his head. Instantly the black wolf emerged from this shadow, leaping down directly onto Kyoday, snarling as it tried to wrap it’s humongous jaws tight around Kyodai’s right lower arm. As soon as it had a grip it would make a tearing motion with its jaw, trying to lop off a sizable chunk of meat before detaching and darting back around the nearest tree, which was only three meters in front of you.

Hunter's Bite
Rank: C
Skill: Taijutsu
Effect: A bite with a tearing motion at the flesh of an opponent
Special: ---
Drawback: Can be thrown off and injured since the damage is primarily done by yanking, pulling, and tugging.
Description: Bite onto the limb of a target, preferably an arm or leg. The twist and pulling away motion with dragging the fangs and jaws through the flesh causes addition damage. A more powerful attack then a regular bite attack.
Limit: Must be an animal companion with sharp teeth.

[Kyodai Hyuuga]

Kyodai was prepared for just about anything but it was obvious now that the black eyed wolf was not ordinary. It having the ability to either Shunshin or blink to that tree was bad enough. The fact it was also thinking enough to try to attack from above was worse. But it chose the wrong person to attack for Kyodai moved as soon as it would try to dive at him. Actually Kyodai moved a little before he dive reading his intent and direction.

The wolf maybe thinking but it was not that smart, for it had the mistake of trying to surprise a Hyuuga. Instead of meeting his arm the wolf would still be in mid air as a precise blow would strike it, in the nerve cluster just behind the back of the neck. With his eyes he could see precisely where he would want to strike. And Kyodai did not hold back even a little. It was an interesting strike for all he needed was the one most times.

His flaming hand would do an open palm strike, but with the amount of chakra centered there it would have the force to send the wolf flying at lest fifteen meters away. But the strike itself was a combination of Krav Maga Palm Strike and the usage of Jyuuken Chakra techniques, while altering the path of the Wolf's attack with Aikido. It would be further enhanced by the heat draining touch of his hand making the burning sensation now freeze. Further His Palm strike had the concussive force of thunder doing more damage and sending the creature a further two meters away.

The strike though was just so his hands could touch the creature nerve center and manipulate his neural pathways. The creature would need to be strong to resist such an attack. Any chakra points in that area would also be seared shut, his knowledge of anatomy made any strike of his very devastating. And just because he was a cautious person his Chakra scalpel had immediately coated his hands in a protective chakra coat that was harder than steel.


Will Save of 16 required Neural Manipulation.
Damage if Connected would Be (all one strike)

(D) Jyuuken strike + (D) Krav Maga Strike + (D) Aikido Redirection + (C) Chakra points + 6 Fire + 6 Concussive + 6 Cold + 10 Anatomist

This works on whenever they are being attacked. This technique however has a major flaw. The user is capable of dodging only whenever the opponent's class is equal or lower to that of the rank of the technique they know.

[Minoru Hyuuga]

'OK...this is bad. I thought wolves were supposed to be scared of fire' observed the male as the animals darting closer between the trees. Minoru made sure to use his byakugan to prevent a possible assault.
His smallest animal companion was still hiding in the tree while Shimoko was flying in a circle around them. The young man felt his heart skip a beat when one of the wolves disappeared.

"MREEAOOW!" screamed Toshio as soon the creature re-appeared. 'WHAT THE-!' thought the Chuunin when he saw the wolf suddenly appear again. It was two meters right above Kyodai!
He immediately pulled out his sword, but it appeared that the younger guy could handle himself. 'He's using chakra scalpels' noticed the male as his byakugan caught the sight of the jutsu.

"Do you need any help? Or do you want me to keep an eye at the rest of the gang here? They don't look that friendly to me" told the black-haired man while keeping an eye at his surroundings.
He put the sword back while he kicked his chakra network into action. The man did NOT wanted any of his animal or human partners to be injured if he could help it.

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 two meters of the source, the creature pinpoints the source’s location. When finding herbs and animals (random), scent may improve searching for them (must have Scent of object previously before searching). Learning “D” Rank allows the user to search for common things, while “S” Rank 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.


Detect evil.
Rank: “C” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: A technique where an animal companion is able to sense if there is evil in a person by using their animal instincts.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: An animal has a keen sense that no other person has. With this type of keen sense it can read one's body type, feel the intentions emitting from the body, as well as get an understanding of everything. It doesn't matter what a person does, the way they stand, how calm they are, how much they move, how they walk, or even the heartbeat of the person, an animal is able to sense the type of person they are. With this technique the animal is capable of figuring out of the person is perhaps an evil intentioned character. This will help the animal feel threatened or feel more at eased, or to perhaps not even care or feel if one is perhaps suspicious in some way.
Limit: Must have an animal companion.


Sekondo nen (Second sense) [10 + 20].
Rank: “D”, “C” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: The brawler depending on the rank of the technique the user is capable of reacting through subconscious mind against attacks against the user in different manners such as being flanked, and from behind. This technique makes the brawler incapable of being surprise attacked.
Special: ---
Drawback: The user may only learn this technique by the class that they are. This means that in order to learn the “C” Rank version they must be “C” Class, if they wish to learn the “B” Rank version they must be “B” Class.
Description: A technique where the subconscious mind, where the subconscious body reacts just as they are attacked while flanked or while their back is turn. The body reacts in such a way to where they are capable of withstanding so much. This technique makes it where the brawler is incapable of being surprised attacked, a sudden second sense kicks in as their body screams out to them yelling at them telling them to move, duck, dodge or anything else within that manner. If an opponent comes to a brawler at a bar, and attacks with a sword, or a club, the brawler gains the urge to dodge to the left, or to the right, where they are capable of reacting before the action is completed. This works on whenever they are being attacked. This technique however has a major flaw. The user is capable of dodging only whenever the opponent's class is equal or lower to that of the rank of the technique they know. This means that a “D” Class user that knows this technique can not use this against an opponent that is “C” Class or higher.
Limit: Must be a brawler.



Jutsu ready for use:


Hakkeshou: Daikaiten (Hands of the eight divination: Great whirl).
Rank: “B” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: An advanced version of hakkeshou: kaiten, the user releases a greater amount of chakra from their tenketsu while spinning like a top, creating a defensive chakra dome of a greater size.
Special: --
Drawback: --
Description: The user begins to spin like a top, excreting chakra from their tenketsu at a much higher level than the hakkeshou: kaiten. This creates a dome of spinning chakra that will repel or stop taijutsu, projectiles, and ninjutsu of “B” rank or less. The radius of the giant dome is ten meters, and is capable of blowing opponents backward up to fifteen meters.
Limit: Must learn from a jyuuken teacher or at the Hyuuga mansion. Must be a Hyuuga. Must know hakkeshou: kaiten and jyuuken advanced stance. Main house only.

[Kyodai Hyuuga]

Kyodai shook his head. "I got this chunnin. I will shout if I need help, can you get into the hut and see what these wolves are protecting or what maybe controlling them. For with that last attack and with those eyes these are either summons, shape changes, or under someone's control. They are not normal."

[Minoru Hyuuga]

"I got this Chunnin. I will shout if I need help.
Can you get into the hut and see what these wolves are protecting or what maybe controlling them? For with that last attack and with those eyes these are either summons, shape changes, or under someone's control. They are not normal." told his partner.

"I agree" replied the male as he looked at the wolves. He decided to jump from tree to tree in order to reach the hut. Minoru knew that normal wolves could not climb for starters.
Second, they could not sneak up on him or encircle him that easily. But he had to be careful since these animals could teleport.

'You guys are not the only ones who can teleport' thought the young man as he gathered some chakra. He kept a close eye on the animals in case they tried to ambush him. The Chuunin then disappeared for a brief moment [1/13] as he teleported straight up in the air.
The male gripped onto a thick branch that was 30 feet (9 meters) above the ground. He would pull himself up unless someone tried to stop him.

Both of his eyes were now looking at the hut. His smallest animal companion was in the tree right behind him. 'What's inside there?' thought the black-haired man as he looked at the building.
His instincts plus the help from his animal friends would hopefully make him stay safe. The man took a deep breath as he prepared himself mentally for what his byakugan could reveal.

Rank: “C” Rank (special, see description).
Skill: Ninjutsu.
Effect: An jutsu when activating allows the user the ability to constantly see chakra.
Special: ---
Drawback: May learn at a maximum of 5 times.
Description: An eye jutsu for the Hyūga clan. When activating the user's eyes dilate in the same white colour as veins bulge out of the corner of the eyes. The user can activate this technique as a “C” Rank technique taking up hand seals. The user is able to see through and thus ignore lighter forms of concealment, such as smoke or mist. The user may concentrate for an amount of hand seals equal to a “C” Rank technique while their byakugan is active to gain the see chakra and see through chakra effects for as long as the user concentrates and their byakugan remains active. Deactivating this ability takes up no movements. When the user learns this technique the first two times, they train it as a regular “C” Rank jutsu. When the user learns this technique the second two times, they train it as a “C” Rank jutsu +10 training points. When the user learns this technique the last time, they train it as a “C” Rank jutsu +20 training points.
Limit: Must be in the Hyūga clan.

Drawback: Must have the byakugan active. May learn up to ∞ times.
Description: When concentrating to see through chakra, the character can also spend time equal to hand seals to gain the ability to see through objects with X-ray like vision up to 10 meters from the user. This does not impede the user's line of sight and the distance a user can normally see, however they simply will not be able to use the X-ray ability beyond 10 meters. When the user first learns this technique the user trains it as a regular “C” Rank jutsu. Each additional training allows the user to use the X-Ray ability for an additional 10 meters. For every 50 meters, the user trains an additional +10 training points added to their previous training. The user also suffers a penalty to observation checks every 15 meters instead of every 3 meters. If user loses an eye (has 1 eye) telescopic eye is reduced by 50%. Future learning also reduces distance by 50%.

By activating this ability, the byakugan gives the user a near 360° field of vision, except for one blind spot at the back of the neck above the first thoracic vertebrae. The distance of this vision is 1/5th of the user's knowledge in telescopic eye (maximum distance 40 meters). Please note that the further the user may see, the larger the blind spot becomes. User is still subject to eye attacks.
Limit: Must be in the Hyūga clan.

Example: User has improved uncanny dodge with 1,660 training points. An opponent with 2,100 training points cannot perform sneak attacks while flanking the user.
Limit: Must learn from a master of burēdono kenseijin. Must know uncanny dodge.

Sense motive. Level: Advanced [63/125].
Rank: “E” Rank.
Skill: Skill.
Effect: User is skilled at detecting falsehoods and true intentions.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: A successful check lets you avoid being bluffed (see the acting skill). The user can also use this skill to determine when "something is up" (that is, something odd is going on) or to assess someone's trustworthiness. Sense motive does not, however, allow a character to determine whether a given statement is a lie. In addition, a character can use this skill to make an assessment of a social situation. With a successful check (very difficult difficulty), the character can get the feeling from another's behaviour that something is wrong. Also, the character can get the feeling that someone is trustworthy and honourable. A sense motive check may be made as a reaction to another character's acting check. Try again: No, though user may make a sense motive check for each acting check made against the user. Look in task skills thread found in the skills and traits index for more information. If user has 25 or more ranks in evidence analysis user gains a synergy bonus +10 to sense motive. If user has 25 or more ranks in cultures user gains a synergy bonus +10 to sense motive when interacting with someone of said culture. Each time learned user gets 1 die roll to increase the skill.

A skilled actor knows how to research their role in order to provide a realistic portrayal to include mannerisms, speech patterns, dialect or jargon. The acting skill also confers a cumulative 5% bonus (per level above unskilled) to disguise skill check rolls. The list below gives examples of mastery and what the character can do.

• Expert: Can independently 'invent' a role such as a lord, member of a cult, wealthy merchant, etc., and can dress and act the part with such skill that he can pass as that person.

Each time learned user gets 1 die roll to increase the skill.

Jutsus and skills used [Toshio]:


Scent.
Rank: “D”, “C” Rank.
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 two meters of the source, the creature pinpoints the source’s location. When finding herbs and animals (random), scent may improve searching for them (must have Scent of object previously before searching). Learning “D” Rank allows the user to search for common things, while “S” Rank 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.

Effect: A technique where an animal companion is able to sense if there is evil in a person by using their animal instincts.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: An animal has a keen sense that no other person has. With this type of keen sense it can read one's body type, feel the intentions emitting from the body, as well as get an understanding of everything. It doesn't matter what a person does, the way they stand, how calm they are, how much they move, how they walk, or even the heartbeat of the person, an animal is able to sense the type of person they are. With this technique the animal is capable of figuring out of the person is perhaps an evil intentioned character. This will help the animal feel threatened or feel more at eased, or to perhaps not even care or feel if one is perhaps suspicious in some way.
Limit: Must have an animal companion.


Sekondo nen (Second sense) [10 + 20].
Rank: “D”, “C” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: The brawler depending on the rank of the technique the user is capable of reacting through subconscious mind against attacks against the user in different manners such as being flanked, and from behind. This technique makes the brawler incapable of being surprise attacked.
Special: ---
Drawback: The user may only learn this technique by the class that they are. This means that in order to learn the “C” Rank version they must be “C” Class, if they wish to learn the “B” Rank version they must be “B” Class.
Description: A technique where the subconscious mind, where the subconscious body reacts just as they are attacked while flanked or while their back is turn.

This works on whenever they are being attacked. This technique however has a major flaw. The user is capable of dodging only whenever the opponent's class is equal or lower to that of the rank of the technique they know. This means that a “D” Class user that knows this technique can not use this against an opponent that is “C” Class or higher.
Limit: Must be a brawler.

Kyodai Hyuuga

T

he counter went almost without a hitch, the strike at the back of the wolf sent the creature flying across the air, smashing into a tree, it’s fur becoming almost invisible in the shadows cast by the leaves. Then it actually disappeared. Just as sudden as it had appeared above you before, it now morphed into nothingness, disappearing from sight. What an odd creature…

This little scuffle had however given the rest of the pack enough time to approach. They were not small in numbers. In a semicircle in front and to the sides of you they had darted closer now, standing only eleven meters from you, a short dash away. You counted at least twenty around you and the howling in the distance made it clear that there might be more. It was strange, this pack was large and yet none of them seemed underfed. Why would they even bother to attack someone so insignificant to their existence like you?

One in front you suddenly charged up in conjunction with one on the left, The one on the front making a massive leap of six meters, trying to land with his paws on your chest and snapping with its powerful sharp jaws at the front of your neck. The other one came in, trying to latch its jaws onto your right forearm, it too attempting to tear off a large chunk of meat after a six meter leap after a short dash.

Minoru Hyuuga

The experience was rather underwhelming. Being the one waving with fire Kyodai managed to draw all the attention to himself, making the enemies focus themselves upon him. This left you more than enough time to spy inside the hut. There was a man inside, presumably the one you had seen before gutting and skinning the deer that was now still hanging upside down next to the hut, bleeding out. Inside the man had positioned himself next to the door, which he seemed to have reinforced with several bands of steel behind the door and a big metal latch. He stood just beyond the door, a spear in hand. On his hip he donned a sword and beyond him stood a bow and a quiver of arrows. He was heavily armed as far as you could see and ready to defend his hovel. Against what and why there was no way to tell, other of course than the massive presence of wolves.

SPOILER: Click to show

Sorry for the lateness, been extremely busy the last few weeks

[Kyodai Hyuuga]

Before the wolves could even charge at Kyodai he threw together a few quick hand seals and started spitting. Suddenly there were five more Kyodai's in front of him. He had made Ink Clones using his own body's water as the ink. He wasn't a master to say the least but he had a few tricks up his sleeve. Each Kyodai Ink Clone could perform teh same Taijutsu as he could.

They would wade into the pack and each was dishing out low grade but accurate punches with Palm Heel Strikes and Hammer Fists. The Hammer fists would hurt the worst as if landing would throw the wolf into another wolf and beyond for about four meters. The clones may not have his augments but they all knew Aikido and Krav Maga. So they would counter a lot of the snapping jaws and redirect twenty five percent of that force upon the wolves.

That wouldn't save Kyodai from the two that lunged at him though but what did was his sudden spin that he put on extruding chakra. It was a classic of Jyuuken, known as Hakkeshou: Kaiten (Hands of the Eight Divinations: Divination Whirl). His was a bit different than most and if any of the elders saw might consider it sacrilege. Even though he was not putting any elemental chakra into it his Whirl was literally streaked with fire. And the kinetic force for the two wolfs that got slammed by his fists would be much worse.

They would fly nine meters and land hard. More so the ones that got hit with his hands versus the pure chakra, would have the heat drained a bit from them. Close combat with any Hyuuga was a losing bet. With Kyodai it was worse even for his lack of masteries he had a style all of his own that was unique. He would then counter the horde of wolves further by showering them in scalpel shards. He only used one hand but five shards flew from it into the thickest part of the pack.

Hadasumi Soushi (Body Ink Creation)
Rank: C-Rank
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows the user the ability to convert water within the body (normally saliva) into ink as it leaves the body.
Special: “Hand Seals”
Drawback: Uses the body’s own water, meaning that the user will be required to later replenish that water, or risk suffering from dehydration. Beyond that, mastering this technique is difficult for most individuals due to the way that they are forced to manipulate the body.
Description: Performing the handseals, the user delves into the body’s own natural water supply and then begins thickening it. As it is brought up near the throat, the user will then generally spit out a giant wad of ink that may then be used for a large assortment of other techniques. If combined with the special ink property jutsu, then the ink propelled from the user’s mouth obtains that property upon the moment it exits the mouth. The ink “wad” may sometimes be converted into a thin stream of ink, depending upon what sort of use the user has for the ink.
Limit: Li Clan Jutsu. Non-medics must obtain 40 TP instead of the usual 30 in order to learn.

Sumi Bunshin no Jutsu (Ink Clone Technique)
Rank: C-Rank
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows the user to create up to five clones of themselves using ink.
Special: “Hand Seals”
Drawback: The Ink clones are incapable of performing any type of special techniques, only taijutsu.
Description: Gathering chakra, the user will then perform the correct handseals. Injecting that chakra into masses of ink, the user is then capable of forming that ink into a perfect likeness of his or herself. The clones, since they are made of ink, retain any special property that the ink has. The initial time that this jutsu is learned allows for the creation of a maximum of five clones- however, each time this technique is re-trained, the number of clones the user is capable of creating increases by five.
Limit: Li Clan Jutsu

Hammerfist to the Side
Rank: "D"
Skill: TaiJutsu
Effect: A hammerfist attack normally performed against the side of the opponent.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Hammerfist to the side may be practiced from a fighting stance or a passive stance. Because it is often used in reaction to a surprise attack, we generally present the strike from a passive stance first. Starting Position Passive Stance. Move your left hand sideways and upward, elbow slightly bent. As your hand moves toward its target, rotate your hip and shoulder. Tuck your chin. Your rising arm should cover you as well as strike. Pivot your outside foot and step in toward your target to make sure weight is being transferred into the punch. Tips Add torque by rotating the fist: at the beginning of the punch, the back of the hand faces the target. Just before contact, rotate the meaty part of your hand out to make contact. As with all punches, you should recoil after striking. Depending on the user's class depends on the strength of the attack.
•"D" Class - A normal attack that has no knockback.
•"C" Class - An attack that has a knockback of 2 meters.
•"B" Class - An attack that has a knockback of 4 meters.
•"A" Class - An attack that has a knockback of 8 meters.
•"S" Class - An attack that has a knockback of 16 meters.

Palm Heel Strike
Rank: "D"
Skill: TaiJutsu
Effect: You can perform a straight punch using the heel of your palm instead of your fist.
Special: ---
Drawback: If you do not rotate, your wrist may be bent backward on impact, potentially causing a sprain or break.
Description: The motion of this punch is otherwise the same as a straight punch. This explanation describes a right palm heel strike, but the strike can be done with either hand. Starting Position Left-leg-forward fighting stance. Driving with your legs and keeping your elbow down as long as possible, extend your right arm forward. As your hand travels out, rotate your shoulder and hip forward to add power to add power. Pivot on your back foot. As your hand is about to strike the target, flex your wrist backward, open your hand, and curl your fingers slightly, making contact with the hard surface at the base of your hand. Rotate your wrist inward as you strike-this adds extra power and helps protect your wrist. By moving your fingers out of the way, you force the heel of your hand, rather than your fingers, to make contact.
Limit: Must learn from a Master of Krav Maga. Must know the Fundamentals in Level 1 - Yellow Belt.

A blue dome of whirling chakra forms around them, spinning with such force that a wind is whipped up around the dome. The dome has a radius of five meters. Ninjutsu and Taijutsu strikes are blown back if they come into contact with the dome. However, strikes of B rank or higher can pierce the dome, causing a chakra reaction that will most likely blow both the user and the attacker backwards.
Limit: Must learn from a Jyuuken teacher or at the Hyuuga Mansion. Must be a Hyuuga. Must know Jyuuken Advanced Stance. Must know Hakkeshou: Sekishokyuu

Chakra Scalpel: Advanced (100 AP)

Special: ---
Drawback: ---

The user is able to perform this technique at a distance of 7 meters plus 6 meters per class level. The number of shards released is dependent on the amount of fingers the user has. Since it is a multiple projectile attack this technique is weaker than a normal Chakra Scalpel. (Divide the power by the amount of Shards released).
Limit: Must be a Medical Doctor. Must know Chakra Scalpel: Sword.

All-Seeing Eye (4 Meters)
Rank: "B"

[Minoru Hyuuga]

'Looks like my partner got things covered. Let's see what's in here' thought the male as he looked inside the hut. He prepared himself on the worst case scenario as his byakugan shifted.
There was only one person inside the hut. It was the man that had been skinning the deer.

He was standing next to the door with a spear in his hand. The door was reinforced with several bands of steel behind the door and a big metal latch.
'Hmph. This makes things a bit harder. I don't want me or my animals to be at the receiving end of that spear' thought Minoru.

'Maybe I can distract him with a genjutsu. He does not appear to be a shinobi from what I can see. Let's see if it works' decided the young man.
He started on a series of handseals while he looked at the man. This could go very well if things went right.

Once the genjutsu was released, the Chuunin would get closer. He tree jumped in order to get closer to the hut. The male made sure that he could not be seen from the window.
His smaller animal companion was right in his heels while the one with wings was flying in a triangle pattern above them. Shimoko was currently flying 35 feet above Kyodai.

If the black-haired guy was not hindered, he would hide behind a tree when he was 40 feet away from the hut. 'Did it worked?' thought the young man while looking at his victim. He had to get in without getting himself or his team mates attacked.
Minoru looked at Toshio. Being a cat meant he could sense things humans could not.

Sense motive. Level: Advanced [63/125].
Rank: “E” Rank.
Skill: Skill.
Effect: User is skilled at detecting falsehoods and true intentions.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: A successful check lets you avoid being bluffed (see the acting skill). The user can also use this skill to determine when "something is up" (that is, something odd is going on) or to assess someone's trustworthiness. Sense motive does not, however, allow a character to determine whether a given statement is a lie. In addition, a character can use this skill to make an assessment of a social situation. With a successful check (very difficult difficulty), the character can get the feeling from another's behaviour that something is wrong. Also, the character can get the feeling that someone is trustworthy and honourable. A sense motive check may be made as a reaction to another character's acting check. Try again: No, though user may make a sense motive check for each acting check made against the user. Look in task skills thread found in the skills and traits index for more information.

Rank: “E” Rank (5 TP at all times).
Skill: Skill.
Effect: Acting enables a character to skilfully portray various roles.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Acting is most often used as a form of entertainment, though it can also be useful in aiding a disguise or pulling a scam. A skilled actor knows how to research their role in order to provide a realistic portrayal to include mannerisms, speech patterns, dialect or jargon. The acting skill also confers a cumulative 5% bonus (per level above unskilled) to disguise skill check rolls. The list below gives examples of mastery and what the character can do.

• Expert: Can independently 'invent' a role such as a lord, member of a cult, wealthy merchant, etc., and can dress and act the part with such skill that he can pass as that person.

Each time learned user gets 1 die roll to increase the skill.

Jutsus and skills used [Toshio]:


Scent.
Rank: “D”, “C” Rank.
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 two meters of the source, the creature pinpoints the source’s location. When finding herbs and animals (random), scent may improve searching for them (must have Scent of object previously before searching). Learning “D” Rank allows the user to search for common things, while “S” Rank 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.


Detect evil.
Rank: “C” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: A technique where an animal companion is able to sense if there is evil in a person by using their animal instincts.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: An animal has a keen sense that no other person has. With this type of keen sense it can read one's body type, feel the intentions emitting from the body, as well as get an understanding of everything. It doesn't matter what a person does, the way they stand, how calm they are, how much they move, how they walk, or even the heartbeat of the person, an animal is able to sense the type of person they are. With this technique the animal is capable of figuring out of the person is perhaps an evil intentioned character. This will help the animal feel threatened or feel more at eased, or to perhaps not even care or feel if one is perhaps suspicious in some way.
Limit: Must have an animal companion.


Sekondo nen (Second sense) [10 + 20].
Rank: “D”, “C” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: The brawler depending on the rank of the technique the user is capable of reacting through subconscious mind against attacks against the user in different manners such as being flanked, and from behind. This technique makes the brawler incapable of being surprise attacked.
Special: ---
Drawback: The user may only learn this technique by the class that they are. This means that in order to learn the “C” Rank version they must be “C” Class, if they wish to learn the “B” Rank version they must be “B” Class.
Description: A technique where the subconscious mind, where the subconscious body reacts just as they are attacked while flanked or while their back is turn. The body reacts in such a way to where they are capable of withstanding so much. This technique makes it where the brawler is incapable of being surprised attacked, a sudden second sense kicks in as their body screams out to them yelling at them telling them to move, duck, dodge or anything else within that manner. If an opponent comes to a brawler at a bar, and attacks with a sword, or a club, the brawler gains the urge to dodge to the left, or to the right, where they are capable of reacting before the action is completed. This works on whenever they are being attacked. This technique however has a major flaw. The user is capable of dodging only whenever the opponent's class is equal or lower to that of the rank of the technique they know. This means that a “D” Class user that knows this technique can not use this against an opponent that is “C” Class or higher.
Limit: Must be a brawler.



Jutsu ready for use:


Hakkeshou: Daikaiten (Hands of the eight divination: Great whirl).
Rank: “B” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: An advanced version of hakkeshou: kaiten, the user releases a greater amount of chakra from their tenketsu while spinning like a top, creating a defensive chakra dome of a greater size.
Special: --
Drawback: --
Description: The user begins to spin like a top, excreting chakra from their tenketsu at a much higher level than the hakkeshou: kaiten. This creates a dome of spinning chakra that will repel or stop taijutsu, projectiles, and ninjutsu of “B” rank or less. The radius of the giant dome is ten meters, and is capable of blowing opponents backward up to fifteen meters.
Limit: Must learn from a jyuuken teacher or at the Hyuuga mansion. Must be a Hyuuga. Must know hakkeshou: kaiten and jyuuken advanced stance. Main house only.

[Solus]

Kyodai Hyuuga

W

alking forward in a straight line the five clones encountered five wolves in their front. Rather than facing the fury of your punches the wolves lowered their heads, slowly trotting backwards, keeping a two meters distance from the ink clones. They were clearly not ready to take any punches.

Your sudden rotation however managed to score a hit, propelling the two wolves away from you. One slammed into a tree with a sickening sound of snapping bones, its front paws flailing as it howled in pain, whilst the hind legs stayed absolutely mobile, testified to you having snapped its back. The other wolf was far more lucky, skidding between the trees until it came to a halt, its fur heavily singed.

The sound of pained howls pierced the air again as the chakra scalpel shards embedded themselves in the flesh of three wolves. This however did not seem to actually harm them other than evoking small trickles of blood, only to make them angrier. Something was off with these wolves. These three wolves together charged up from your right, one snapping at your leg, the other at your lower arm and one at your side, each attempting to tear off a large chunk of meat. At the same time one leapt forward at your back, trying to latch its jaws onto your left ankle at it came at you with a small curve from your left.

Minoru Hyuuga

Unfortunately you did not feel much result from your genjutsu. Or rather, you expended the chakra but it disappated on the roof of the hut, the solid barrier you could see through with your Byakugan would disperse your genjutsu. This left the man in the state he was currently in, unchanged. Still, despite that Toshio was unable to detect any evil intent from the man.

[Minoru Hyuuga]

'SHOOT!' thought the male when the genjutsu literally did not go through. He narrowed his eyes in an attempt to find an entrance. There was no way he could enter through the chimney.
'Toshio-kun seems to be fine. At least this man is not completely evil' observed Minoru.

The young man then remembered something that could work. But he had to use his wits in order to make this trick work.
The Chuunin did a set of handseals while he kept an eye on his surroundings. It looked like his partner was doing all right so far. Same could be said for his animal friends.

'There we go! Let's see how that goes down' thought the male as he tree-jumped towards the cabin. If he was unhindered, he would stop when he was 20 feet away from the cabin.
The black-haired guy would send a missile towards the center of the door. It would most likely sound like a loud knock or break the door depending on how strong it was.

The guy would search the cabin for windows or anything else he or his animals could enter through. He did not want to enter through the door unless it was the only option. 'I wonder why the wolves are attacking us. There's no pray or pups nearby' pondered Minoru. He would keep his attention on the man as well as his surroundings.

The balls levitate in the air, much like in the system involved with Ochiru ame no jutsu. The balls will then fly at the opponent, and depending on the amount of chakra used to throw them, the “missiles” can easily dent thick metal armor or to knock down wooden doors on metal hinges.

Effect: The brawler depending on the rank of the technique the user is capable of reacting through subconscious mind against attacks against the user in different manners such as being flanked, and from behind. This technique makes the brawler incapable of being surprise attacked.
Special: ---
Drawback: The user may only learn this technique by the class that they are. This means that in order to learn the “C” Rank version they must be “C” Class, if they wish to learn the “B” Rank version they must be “B” Class.
Description: A technique where the subconscious mind, where the subconscious body reacts just as they are attacked while flanked or while their back is turn. The body reacts in such a way to where they are capable of withstanding so much. This technique makes it where the brawler is incapable of being surprised attacked, a sudden second sense kicks in as their body screams out to them yelling at them telling them to move, duck, dodge or anything else within that manner. If an opponent comes to a brawler at a bar, and attacks with a sword, or a club, the brawler gains the urge to dodge to the left, or to the right, where they are capable of reacting before the action is completed. This works on whenever they are being attacked. This technique however has a major flaw. The user is capable of dodging only whenever the opponent's class is equal or lower to that of the rank of the technique they know. This means that a “D” Class user that knows this technique can not use this against an opponent that is “C” Class or higher.
Limit: Must be a brawler.

[Kyodai Hyuuga]

Kyodai was fighting like the martial artist he was. The wolves had little chance of actually causing any harm, but if they were under the influence of an intelligence then something was wrong. This a few at a time was never going to work. After the spin, whoever is controlling them would have realized this kind of attack would never work. So there may be something else in play.

"Chunnin, watch this may be more of a Trap." At this point the man in the cabin would know they were their just from the sounds of fighting. Especially since he just stopped another three wolves. They all came at his right side this time, it made it easy to predict and counter. He may use Gentle fist but his fists were anything but gentle. For the upper most wolf, the one attacking his arm, got an arm alright.

With a simple twist of the body and footing, he was alongside the wolves and that uppermost one would have gotten hammerfisted ten meters away with a flaming hand that would also drain heat. The wolf that aimed at his side would not fair much better as Kyodai continued his twist until his off hand landed a palm heel strike coated with Chakra needles. Each hand also had a protective film of chakra that was as hard as steel scalpels. The last wolf was the unluckyest for as the other two wolves were sent flying some meters away he was showered with two hands of shards that shredded muscle and sinew. These shards were sharp enough to perform surgery.

Effect: A hammerfist attack normally performed against the side of the opponent.
Special: ---

Pivot your outside foot and step in toward your target to make sure weight is being transferred into the punch. Tips Add torque by rotating the fist: at the beginning of the punch, the back of the hand faces the target. Just before contact, rotate the meaty part of your hand out to make contact. As with all punches, you should recoil after striking. Depending on the user's class depends on the strength of the attack.

Starting Position Left-leg-forward fighting stance. Driving with your legs and keeping your elbow down as long as possible, extend your right arm forward. As your hand travels out, rotate your shoulder and hip forward to add power to add power. Pivot on your back foot. As your hand is about to strike the target, flex your wrist backward, open your hand, and curl your fingers slightly, making contact with the hard surface at the base of your hand. Rotate your wrist inward as you strike-this adds extra power and helps protect your wrist. By moving your fingers out of the way, you force the heel of your hand, rather than your fingers, to make contact.
