Set hummed to herself as she walked along a street clad in a crimson bikini to match her hair as her red aura probably looked like a heat mirage. Perhaps she could find someone interesting to play with,maybe even the shapeshifter if she could get lucky.
Having spent some time doing missions, buying new items, and doing various tasks around the Land of Wind, Valerys found that it was nice to spend some time flying on Akumu's back. She rode on top of him, looking almost a dragon-rider or knight, as she soared through the air on a dark black quetzalcoatl that stretched 55 ft. long. His yellow eyes scanned the horizon below as he was about fifty meters in the air, and he noticed someone up ahead. A speck on the horizon. "Fly down that way," Valerys instructed and Akumu obeyed, flying down toward the ground. As they got close enough, and as Valerys spotted the maligned demon known as Set that she had met not that long ago, she jumped from Akumu's back and landed on the ground in front of her.
Valerys looked very much like the first time they had met. Short, auburn hair ran down to her her neck and her red eyes looked out at the woman who had overtaken Krystal's body, obviously for some time. She was dressed in the red tanktop and skirt, with her Sand Village headband strapped around her neck. She had been wearing it more often lately. The spear Bitter Mercy was strapped to her back, bathed in crimson on the blade and with a maroon scarf that fluttered from where it was tied along the shaft. She had brought her messenger pack, strapped over her shoulder, with a mug filled with seven good-quality lapis lazuli and a scroll of the known world. Other than this she carried little else, and had not anticipated seeing the woman. It seemed that she was taking a liking to the Land of Wind.
"Well hello," Valerys said as she landed on the ground, Akumu flying above their heads in a circle one more time before losing enough momentum to drop to the ground, "I didn't think that I'd be seeing you again so soon." Akumu watched them, his gargantuan body leaving a presence over the landscape and Valerys hoped to herself that no one else would walk through this stretch of the desert. Her pet did have a way of... scaring the locals. Akumu had a small light shield strapped to the massive side of his serpentine body and a pair of goggles (with several sets of lenses) strung up there as well, although both looked more fit for someone the size of a human. He flicked his tongue out of his mouth as he looked at Set, wondering about the nature of this demonic woman. Both he and Valerys waiting to see what she'd have to say.

Set calmly glanced up hearing the wind rush around a body before Valerys dropped down in front of her. Maybe the crimson cat was djinn in woman's clothing, poor comparison. Without breaking stride she would close the few feet between them as the shhapeshifter spoke.
"Neither did I but I wished." Set purred while wrapping her arms around he young woman's waist pulling her into a deep kiss, in return for the last kiss that Valerys had given her last time. Without hesitation she brought her partner against her firm body happily while her tail swished back and forth although her claw-like nails would softly scratch at her sides in excitement.
"And then a star fell."
(wishing on a shooting star reference)

Charm Perception Rank: "B" Skill: GenJutsu Effect: Jutsu allows the user to perform Charm Perceptions. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: This technique does not count against the user's Perception Training Points. A Charm changes the subject's perception so that the subject thinks of the user (or possibly some other creature the user designates) as a valued friend or ally. A Charm differs from a Compulsion in that it does not force the subject to do anything. Instead, the Jutsu prompts a change in thinking in the subject that in turn affects how the subject behaves. Limit: Must have Mastered Enchantment Perception.

Knowing of Set's infatuation with lust and desire, as Valerys Set approaching she activated in a moment a type of force jutsu that would stop her from touching or kissing Valerys. Assuming that it worked, Valerys would watch as Set tried to move into the area close to her and not be able to do so and Valerys would smile. It was not cruel, however, and in fact it would appear as if Valerys was trying to charm her. "Hmmm," Valerys said, "We hadn't quite agreed that you and I were romantically involved now did we, Set?" As she spoke, Valerys tried to rely on her powers of charisma but found that they were not enough. If she truly wanted to win over someone, then she was going to have to learn how to manipulate her chakra into her charming qualities.
Valerys put her right hand on to her hip and leaned forward just a little bit, moving her chakra throughout her consciousness and body movements as she did so. Keying into the parts of herself that she could enhance with the right genjutsu. "I mean we barely know one another. Tell me a little bit about yourself. What are your hobbies? What are your goals?" Valerys smiled a little more and with her left hand pushed back her auburn hair from her face, still thinking about her chakra as she used it to influence this charm -- even within her own mind. "But above all else, no more kissing me without my permission." It had been fine when it was Krystal, but this was not Krystal and from their previous interaction she wasn't sure how that she was fond of the new form. It would take a bit more persuading.
Although she spoke words that were a bit tense, she continued to concentrate on what aspects of her own behavior she could adjust in order to charm Set and even her own psyche. She focused on her body movements and the thoughts that played out across her mind, focusing on charm images and arousing her own behaviors. However, never letting her Halt technique subside and waiting to see what Set would say. She was interested. She could feel the chakra within her body becoming excited and coursing throughout her arms, chest, and into her brain. Genjutsu seemed right at her fingertips, and yet in some ways far away. She wasn't sure how much work would be needed to master this new art, but felt confident that it was something that she needed in her repertoire.
Halt Rank: "D" Skill: NinJutsu Effect: A halting technique used to stop advancing targets. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: The user is able to perform this technique at a distance of 10 meters. Affects 1 creature that attempts to move into or adjacent of the targeted area. Duration of the Jutsu is 5 minutes per Class Level. Halt sets up a charge of force about the user that is activated when a foe attempts to move into a 2 meter area that is adjacent to the user. When an opponent activates halt, that foe is unable to complete its movement. The foe’s movement ends in the area that it moved through just before it attempted to move into the adjacent area. Halt cannot be activated more than once per round. Limit: Must be a Shape Transformation Specialist.
Detect Chaos Rank: "C" Skill: NinJutsu Effect: The user can sense the presence of evil. The amount of information revealed depends on how long the user studies a particular area or subject. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: Range of this Jutsu is 20 meters cone-shaped emanation. Duration is Concentration, up to 5 minutes per Class Level. This Jutsu functions like Detect Evil, except that it detects the auras of chaotic creatures, worshippers of chaotic deities, chaotic Jutsus, and chaotic Chakra items, and the user is vulnerable to an overwhelming chaotic aura if they are lawful. Limit: Must be a Sensor Specialist.

Akumu looked upon the two women as Valerys fell from his back, and he wanted to make sure that she was safe. As a lawful (albeit evil) individual himself, Akumu knew that those that identified with chaos could be particularly malignant. As he watched them he curled up his body as if he was getting comfortable, but really it was to adjust and allow his chakra to move through his enormous body. Soon it began to fill his eyes and aura as he watched them. As he started getting into this new technique, Akumu would suddenly transform into his pure-blood form: a black cobra about fifteen feet long with no wings and instead two arms sprouting out of his torso. As Akumu switched to this form he continued to let his chakra overcome his senses.
He searched for the chaos in her, Set, who Valerys had spoken to him about. Although he could not understand them he intended to glean what he could from the situation -- his own way. His chakra covered the area as he started to look at her from every angle and feature, trying to determine whether or not she was of that chaotic alignment. That bent which he had seen in so many others. Akumu wished that it were not true but was beginning to have a sneaking suspicion that it was. It appeared almost like a color to him, one that he could not describe and which shifted endlessly before his vision.

0/10 Combat Reflexes Rank: "B" Skill: TaiJutsu Effect: User can make additional opportunity of attacks. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: User may make a number of additional opportunity attacks per round equal to 1 + 1/4 of their movements. With this technique, the user may also make opportunity of attacks while flat-footed. Limit: Universal TaiJutsu Technique.
Feeling the direct opposition Set raised an eyebrow her mirth gone as she sniffed the air her attention moving off Valerys while the force had appeared. In the next moment the cat would shift on her heel moving around the area of force using her tail and spin to feel it as she instead moved around behind Valerys. "Oh come on, you found her sweaty and nearly passed out in the desert. I;m not all bad as long as we have fun."
"I like to have fun and I do what I want." Set replied hugging Valerys from behind, her arms intentionally pushing up her bust. The crimson cat purred in her ear while her tail teased Val's skin. "When your freedom is limited you focus more on who you can make scream for a night rather than world domination lovely~"
Set seemingly having ignored the charming effect since she focused more on getting around the force at first rather than on Val herself until she could touch her. A deep red flame like a bonfire was apparent to sneksnek up high as Set's highly chaotic nature raged proudly, although faintly, like the gleam of a needle in the sand, a blue flicker. "Would it really be so bad to play with a lightning storm rather than a... spark?"

As Set spoke to Valerys she began to circle around her, clear that she was trying to get around Valerys' defenses. She explained her case as she did so and Valerys continued to turn her head to look at her, smiling from the corner of her mouth and letting her charming qualities run throughout her body. She had been building up the energy from her soul as she turned back to look at Set (formerly Krystal) and allowed it to release as Set came up to hug her from behind -- releasing her Halt technique in the same moment that Valerys teleported across the empty space of the desert air just as Set put her arms around her. She reappeared ten meters away, her soul having carried her the distance.
As she rematerialized some distance away, Valerys would be standing proud with her hands on her hips and her auburn hair blowing around, occasionally covering her left red eye with her bangs. She did in fact look charming in that sunlight and this sand, standing so proud of herself and teleporting from space to space. "I'm not one of your playthings," Valerys said, "I could learn to like you I am sure. We are similar, you and I. The way we look, the way we speak, and if you are lightning then we could be a thunderstorm." She was still charming.
"But just making someone scream for the night? That's not all I want. You are better than that, demon." The grin curled even deeper (as if it were possible) over Valerys' face, demonstrating that she didn't mean it to be offensive but as a compliment. True that she was not yet fond of Set, but she knew that this was an evil individual that may become useful to her -- even if it was Krystal that she truly sought to protect. How strange that I want to save somebody, she thought briefly to herself, and as she did the power of her charms became stronger and her bloodlust satiated for a moment. Fortunately, because even being in Set's presence got her excited.
Soul Shunt Rank: "D" Skill: NinJutsu Effect: User moves their soul and then snap to where it's at. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: Target is personal. Range is 10 meters.

User makes a 10 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 10 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.

Akumu continued to watch the scene unfold before him and noted how his Mistress kept dodging the red-haired woman, who felt oddly like the demons he once knew and detested, but it looked playful rather than antagonistic. All the while he kept studying her chaotic nature that he was beginning to see ooze from her animalistic body and crimson bikini. He noted the depth and complexity of what he was seeing and knew that this must be some level of chaos. But how strong was it? Akumu tried to detect more about Krystal but worried over what he had already determined, although knew that Valerys was not as distrustful of chaotes. A bad decision if you asked Akumu.

Limit: Universal TaiJutsu Technique. Must know Combat Reflexes.
As Valerys shunted away Set grumbled and sighed standing upright looking at the sand for a moment then walking around Valerys a few steps counter clockwise so that her shadow was between them. Her body shifted into a stance unfamiliar to Set but familiar to the body, once in a boxing stance she would start to rock her body back and forth before jabbing at the air glancing at her shadow as she practiced.
"Less of a plaything, more like a lover. I'd like that." set commented about the thunderstorm analogy she put forth while Set practiced, she wasn't familiar with boxing herself and drew on Krystal's body's reactions and the way her muscles flowed feeling the mastery within the body itself fuel her movements. She shifted her body ducking as if fighting an invisible opponent jabbing back as she shifted around more invisible strikes. Set in particular was by far more martially advanced than her sister and felt joy in feeling her body move so... efficiently.
However, at the sound of the 'D' word her power surged mid-counter sending a wave of force billowing through the sand as her red gaze looked back to the red-head. "Don't call me a demon."
After a deep breath she stood up straight and stretched feeling her back pop while her tail flit about. Her emotions had spiked when she said that word considering the past Set had with the coven and despite her horns she deeply despised that race. "So what do you want if not a great night of disturbing neighbors?"

As Valerys watched Set move her body back and forth, still playing their game, and let out a roar at the mention of demon, she started to form a short string of handseals. Now that she had learned some about the charm perception she was eager to learn a new technique that could use its power. After concentrating on these handseals, Valerys began to move chakra throughout her torso and up into her throat, affecting the sound of her own voice. She tried to use her knowledge of people and this situation to guide her mind into influencing her voice, making it more charming to Set and capturing her attention.
"What do I want?" Valerys said and smiled, "A legacy." She touched the Sand headband and looked at it longingly. All the while her chakra continued to influence her voice and she tried to maintain it as long as possible. She continued to let the chakra drain from her into her throat, fueling the rest of her charm. "I want you to agree to lend me your corrupted strength, but if you expect me to bow down and let you do whatever you want then you're mistaken. Maybe in time Ancient Evil, but for now Krystal alone has my heart." She grinned. Oh how fun this one was...
Web Sphere Rank: "B" Skill: NinJutsu Effect: User creates a sphere of web capable of grappling creatures and rolling away. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: Range of this technique is 30 meters + 15 meters per Class Level. Duration of this technique is 5 rounds per Class Level. Effect is 3-meter-diameter sphere of webs. User creates a rolling mass of sticky web strands that can engulf and grapple creatures it strikes. The web sphere moves as the user directs, up to 20 meters each round, rolling over barriers less than 3 meters high. It can ascend or jump vertically to a height of 3 meters. If the web sphere enters the area of a creature of up to Large size, it ceases moving for the round, engulfs them and carries them along when it moves again. Engulfed creatures gain the grappled condition and cover against attacks from outside the sphere. An engulfed creature can attempt a Break check or an Escape Artist skill check on its turn every round as a weaving movement, success placing it in a random area adjacent to the web sphere. The web sphere can hold 1 Large creature, 2 Medium creatures, 4 Small creatures and 8 creatures of Tiny size or smaller. The web sphere moves when the user actively directs it (a move movement for the user); otherwise it stays at rest.

A web sphere that moves beyond the Jutsu's range collapses in on itself and disappears. Limit: Must be an Ōgumo. Must know Web Spinning.

Akumu finally understood that this creature was in fact chaotic, just like all the demons he had known in the Abyss. He hissed with dissatisfaction as he learned this and saw it clearly, but would not allow himself to be bested by a chaote. He curled up into a coil and pulled his goggles from his side and over his eyes, so that he could better see everything, and began to mold his chakra into his throat and his hands which were now moving with the dexterity of an Ogumo. He chewed the webbing infusing it with as much of his chakra as he could and making a small ball. The ball was infused with all of his energy and continued to fill his mouth until he felt like he couldn't do it anymore.
He knew that the two girls were doing their own thing and were not paying him much attention, so he took the opportunity to work on his techniques and set up a slight defense against the red-haired woman in case she decided to get aggressive. When the ball of webbing in his mouth became too large, Akumu reached his two hands within his mouth and started to pull it out. It slithered out of his throat filled with his spit and chakra for some distance, and he set to rapidly coil all the strands of webbing around one another. After some time doing this the webbing began to stick to itself and center around the ball that Akumu had been creating, forming a sort of orb of webbing in his hands.
Akumu looked at it with wonder and kept at it, now holding the ball as he continued to spit his webbing into it. He could infuse as much chakra into his saliva as possible and then spit, continuously growing this orb of webs. Truly it was disgusting, but to some extent he loved it and started to see it as a piece of artwork. After a moment Akumu had created an orb of webbing that was a foot in diameter. It dripped with his saliva and chakra, and he held it in one hand then the other -- testing its weight. It felt good and heavy as Akumu set it on the ground and prepared to do even more work to this creation of webs.

0/100 (both trainings) Full Counter Rank: "B" Skill: TaiJutsu Effect: Full counter is a reflective technique allowing the user to counter Chakra Techniques. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: Full counter enables the user to reflect oncoming, single target, physical damaging chakra attacks aimed back at the enemy at double (200%) the power; therefore, the stronger the opponent's attack is, the stronger the Full Counter becomes. However, there are also drawbacks to Full Counter; user cannot initiate any attack themselves. Can only perform Full Counter on a technique not already countered. Performing a Full Counter takes 2 weaving movements. Full Counter only reflects "Damaging Chakra" attacks. This Jutsu is useless against indirect attacks, and non Chakra TaiJutsu techniques. User may learn this technique a 2nd time. If user does this technique may reflect Non-Chakra TaiJutsu techniques. Limit: Universal TaiJutsu Technique. Must know Counterpunch.
"Seems so... intangible." Set replied off hand, her years of being reincarnated having watched society rise and fall like sand blowing away in the wind. Her mindscape shifted slowly imagining a serpent raise from the sand fire a ball of mud at her. Time seemed to slow as Set raised a hand and concentrated her will through her body her horns standing out visibly to Val as she waved her hand forward to backhand the blast, however her technique didn't resonate quite as well with Krystal's form making her stumble a step back from the imaginary blast.
A quizzical glance moved over her arm not knowing quite what happened having replicated the counter many times before. Her gaze shifted to Val hearing the distant hiss of the mental snake idling in the sand. "My strength is mine, and Krystal is too good for what you probably want."
"I didn't want you to bow, bend maybe, I don't like servitude... I want my partners to want my chaos. Evil is a harsh word." Set replied feeling a bit more mirth as her mind replayed the mud blast once more a faint red glow spreading along her arm before she struck the mud rebounding it back through the air like hurling a boulder. The reflect seemed to perform well enough and her mind and her current body.
"You should tell her she has it." Set replied before glancing back at her with a faint smile her power slowly growing within her. "If you help me grow, I'll listen. Fire magic at me."
6 Apr 20, 21:52 Usiel: I can't believe you Batmaned me
Phantasmal Killer Rank: "B" Skill: GenJutsu Effect: User creates a phantasmal image of the most fearsome creature imaginable to the subject simply by forming the fears of the subject's subconscious mind into something that its conscious mind can visualize: this most horrible beast. Special: "Handseals" Drawback: --- Description: A Mind-Affecting Technique. Affects 1 living target. 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 is instantaneous. This technique may be disbelieved once interacted with. Only the Jutsu's subject can see the Phantasmal Killer. User sees only a vague shape. The target first gets a save to recognize the image as unreal. If that save fails, the phantasm touches the subject, and the subject must succeed an additional save or die from fear. Even if the second save is successful, the subject takes on mental damage. Limit: Must know the Phantasm Perception. Must have mastered Phantasm Perceptions.

"If I help you grow then you'll listen huh?" Valerys said, not entirely believing it. Still it was a step in the right direction and it turned out that Set was being more agreeable than a lot of other people -- especially those goody-too-shoes. "Alright I'll help you," she said even as she was weaving the handseals to form some other technique. Her fingers wove in and out of each other like little animals sticking their head out of the dirt. Her chakra moved through her body at nearly instant speeds and filled her hands and mind. She reached deep within her own consciousness, finding the reserves of chakra and fear that she knew lay dorminant there and summoning to this scene.
All of a sudden the chakra that was inside of her body began to leak out and radiate over the battlefield, covering everything within a ten meter distance and focusing most intensely on Set. All of a sudden the earth in front of her about a meter would begin to bubble if she was not able to counter it, as Valerys' genjutsu was getting more and more powerful every second. "But if I do help you get stronger, then to demonstrate your loyalty then you will meet and speak to me in a city called Sukuinushi after this. There are plans there that are already underway." Valerys pushed back her bangs from her red eyes and the chakra continued to move from her mind into the battlefield, and eventually into the mind of even Set -- whether or not it worked.
To one who failed to defend themselves against Valerys' genjutsu, the chakra would begin to appear as if it were seeping from the ground and beginning to materialize into a black aura just above the dirt. As Valerys outstretched her hands and let even more chakra move into it, the aura became even larger and more dense until it looked almost like a billowing cloud of black smoke. She did not stop yet and continued to let the power grow, sucking off her reservoir of chakra and energy necessary to keep it maintained. Valerys put her teeth together even harder, knowing that if she wanted to keep an eye on Set and use her for her purposes then she was going to have to do very well here. All of a sudden with the surge of chakra, the black blob began to take on a shape.
Web Sphere Rank: "B" Skill: NinJutsu Effect: User creates a sphere of web capable of grappling creatures and rolling away. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: Range of this technique is 30 meters + 15 meters per Class Level. Duration of this technique is 5 rounds per Class Level. Effect is 3-meter-diameter sphere of webs. User creates a rolling mass of sticky web strands that can engulf and grapple creatures it strikes. The web sphere moves as the user directs, up to 20 meters each round, rolling over barriers less than 3 meters high. It can ascend or jump vertically to a height of 3 meters. If the web sphere enters the area of a creature of up to Large size, it ceases moving for the round, engulfs them and carries them along when it moves again. Engulfed creatures gain the grappled condition and cover against attacks from outside the sphere. An engulfed creature can attempt a Break check or an Escape Artist skill check on its turn every round as a weaving movement, success placing it in a random area adjacent to the web sphere. The web sphere can hold 1 Large creature, 2 Medium creatures, 4 Small creatures and 8 creatures of Tiny size or smaller. The web sphere moves when the user actively directs it (a move movement for the user); otherwise it stays at rest. The web like surface of the sphere does not cause damage and cannot be used to move creatures aside or batter down obstacles. A web sphere that moves beyond the Jutsu's range collapses in on itself and disappears. Limit: Must be an Ōgumo. Must know Web Spinning.

Akumu watched the women as he continued to make his ball of webbing, molding saliva and chakra into a wide combination that he'd spit into his hands and then shape to the growing orb on the ground. He watched as Valerys began to form handseals and seemed to be putting the demon under a genjutsu. He smiled. How pleasing... But he didn't focus on it long and got back to his Ogumo training, wishing that he were at the temple and with Shikumo who had taught him all sorts of tricks. Akumu looked down at the orb to determine how far he had come and whether he was ready to move on to Step 2.
The orb was now about three feet in diameter and was leaking saliva out of all its open pores and layers. Chakra almost seemed to float off of it and linger around it, giving the ball a sense of purpose and power. Akumu held up a handseal in his right hand to help him concentrate, his cobra hood vibrating a little with pleasure as he got ready to really start learning this technique. He sent his chakra throughout his serpentine body and into the Web Sphere to make a small connection between his mind and the orb. Akumu knew that he did not need to fill it with much more chakra -- it was already close to bursting at the seams.
He felt connected to the sphere, as if this webbing and all of this spit was a part of him still and held some level of his awareness. Akumu let out a slight hum, thinking about his music, and began to focus his concentration. "Ooohhhmmm" he vibrated deep in his gullet and let the sound echo over the training grounds. The ball of webbing slowly began to shake back and forth, and Akumu watched it with pleasure as it even seemed to be getting enough momentum to tilt over. Soon Akumu found that while holding a handseal his concentration was enough to roll the ball of webbing twice. But this was not enough, no, he knew that he would have to go furthur.

Set listened to the shapeshifter for a moment before she glanced down at her arm idly turning it over curious of this bodies movements. Although as Valerys began to do something Set's red gaze lifted, this one sure seemed to love going on in such... rosy speech. However whenever the ground started to bubble with blackness Set spread her will through her body and stepped forward awaiting what would emerge from the muck to assault her. However as she drew her arm back to strike the oncoming blow, she stopped dead in her tracks with her eyes wide for a moment. All the bravado, all the darkness gone, for a moment.
"Is... No, you're dead." Set slowly responded to herself. Before her stood her sister, similar in appearance though with straight black hair and blue tips, gold and blue make up along her eyes, just as minimally dressed but in gold, like royalty. The image set saw was her greatest fear, losing her sister but past the initial image it filled the spirit with loss and longing. With a wave of her claws she confirmed the illusion before her piercing red eyes shifted to Valerys.
"I said magic, not paltry illusions." Set spoke flat and cold, a first for the sinner as the ghost of her sister still flickered behind her eyes. The image confirmed one thing for her though, the technique still didn't work on damned illusions. "I'll not show any loyalty to one who sees me as a tool, let alone after I've stated my desire for a partner not a subordinate."
Irritation could easily be found in Set's voice as her gaze narrowed slightly. She needed to strike chakra or at least a physical attack to get anywhere with her technique and if ghosts were all that were available she'd have to reside in her mind to get anywhere which was... less than practical
"What question."

"This is my magic," Valerys said simply and continued to let the chakra run throughout her arms and legs, flowing into the air and earth that surrounded her. As it converged on the place in front of her, all of the chakra began to materialize into the blob which Valerys could not discern. Set, however, clearly had. She didn't know the content of the image, but she knew that if she continued to fuel it with her chakra then she would be able to make it stronger and more horrifying -- and she wondered what would happen if it touched someone. Surely she could feel the fear and loathing emanating from that spot. "As for illusions, it seems to me that our time in this world is just as illusory. Although quite the interesting reaction -- who knew that you could actually become shaken?"
She was used to people who did not understand or appreciate her genjutsu. It seemed to be a popular fad or cultural prejudice, since anytime she attempted to assist someone with her genjutsu they got upset with her. Oh well, she thought, More for me... The image continued to increase its realism, becoming even more and more life-like. Now that Set had noticed that it was an illusion, however, Valerys had to try even harder to push more of her chakra into the technique and overcome her defenses. In a perfect world maybe, but she knew that often when a genjutsu had been avoided that was the end of that manipulation.
"And I didn't mean to make you feel like a subordinate. Only to demonstrate to you my powers, and what it is that I may do to our enemies. But alas, if a direct and physical chakra attack is what you want then I'm the wrong person to ask." Valerys glanced at Akumu and nodded her head, saying something quickly in draconic before the black cobra began to smile and look up from his Web Sphere that he had been crafting. As Akumu obeyed her directive, Valerys continued to focus on maintaining her genjutsu and increasing its strength -- powering its body so that if it moved to touch someone then they would undergo a horrific effect. Of what type, Valerys was not yet sure. "As for my question -- how much of this will Krystal remember when she wakes up?"
Web Sphere Rank: "B" Skill: NinJutsu Effect: User creates a sphere of web capable of grappling creatures and rolling away. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: Range of this technique is 30 meters + 15 meters per Class Level. Duration of this technique is 5 rounds per Class Level. Effect is 3-meter-diameter sphere of webs. User creates a rolling mass of sticky web strands that can engulf and grapple creatures it strikes. The web sphere moves as the user directs, up to 20 meters each round, rolling over barriers less than 3 meters high. It can ascend or jump vertically to a height of 3 meters. If the web sphere enters the area of a creature of up to Large size, it ceases moving for the round, engulfs them and carries them along when it moves again. Engulfed creatures gain the grappled condition and cover against attacks from outside the sphere. An engulfed creature can attempt a Break check or an Escape Artist skill check on its turn every round as a weaving movement, success placing it in a random area adjacent to the web sphere. The web sphere can hold 1 Large creature, 2 Medium creatures, 4 Small creatures and 8 creatures of Tiny size or smaller. The web sphere moves when the user actively directs it (a move movement for the user); otherwise it stays at rest. The web like surface of the sphere does not cause damage and cannot be used to move creatures aside or batter down obstacles. A web sphere that moves beyond the Jutsu's range collapses in on itself and disappears. Limit: Must be an Ōgumo. Must know Web Spinning.

Akumu continued to work on his sphere of webbing, focusing on it with all of his concentration as he continued to hum and hold the handseal in his right hand. The ball had started to wobble slightly and Akumu had even been able to get it to roll a couple of times. His mastery over its movements and abilities, however, were weak and he knew that it would require greater concentration. The link that connected him to the Web Sphere, made from his chakra, allowed him to know its movements well and so he increased his awareness on this link -- increasing his control over the ball. Soon it began to roll in a small circle in front of him, Akumu's golden eyes trailing it in his head.
Then Valerys looked toward him and nodded, telling him to use one of his attacks on the woman who looked so much like a demon. Akumu smiled and thought to himself how fortunate he was. Although, using a ninjutsu technique while his Web Sphere was still active was going to be difficult. He had to release the handseal he was holding to keep the ball in check, and had to still learn to move it around and make sure that it did not fall apart into useless strands. He pushed chakra into the air that the ball could draw off of in order to maintain its shape, and then he started to reach within himself -- pulling even greater amounts of chakra to the forefront so that he could both manage the orb and create a new attack.
He would start a new set of handseals and build chakra up in his throat once more. The sphere of webbing shook a little as he broke his concentration, and he had to maintain two routes of awareness, but eventually did so and created an Airblast attack which he fired from his mouth at Set. Because it was air, it was almost impossible to see but it was focused enough to deliver a small amount of damage and possibly even knock the woman to the ground. Akumu did not know about her defenses, however, and wondered why he was being chosen to attack her. He brought his attention back to the sphere then, and made it roll around himself in a circle as a sort of defense. Finally it was beginning to obey his orders. Although it was not very fast yet, Akumu continued to concentrate and increase its speed.

The look settled as the crimson cat looked at the illusionist, and she thought Set couldn't be trusted. As she continued to look on at the illusion, there was no fear in Set's gaze merely sorrow, longing. Krystal however internally was undergoing the same attack from the genjutsu affecting her mind. Being trapped in a void with no one she cared for left, the pain wracking her mind. Slowly a tear ran down Set's face though clearly not from her as she regarded the image of her sister as it reached out to touch her shoulder.
"There's nothing left I fear, death comes to all, I had feared when my sister sealed me within her but it made us closer. Your beloved is a different story, two souls two minds in the same body, she's afraid of being abandoned and left alone forever." Set calmly explained, much more open about Krystal's psyche than the amazon was. As she ordered her snake Set glanced at it and her will pulsed through her like a heartbeat. As the wind whispered and gathered Set felt the familiarity and knew that Krystal's affinity identified the technique. As the blast of wind came at her Set would strike the blast with her claws making the wind glare red before reflecting back at twice the strength.
"I know what you can do, Ive seen you through her eyes and memories. As for what she will remember, that is up to me." set replied calmly while the shade of her kin still stood beside her the tears slowly dripping from her eyes.

Valerys watched as the wind technique moved to hit Set, but she struck it with her claws and seemed to turn the chakra back on itself -- sending it flying back toward Akumu. Although the attack hit him he felt none of it thanks to his natural armors and defenses, and reached behind his back with one of his arms to grab his light shield and held it in front of himself with his right arm. As Valerys saw the attack fly back at him, she watched Akumu and tried to use her awareness and chakra to determine how much pain he had received from the attack.
She had been told by master riders that sometimes one could develope an Empathic Link with their mount, if they knew them well enough, so Valerys went about trying to determine what she could about Akumu now. She sensed his exclamation as the woman set the attack back at him, his satisfaction as he blocked it with his defenses, and his anger now that it was over. "I see," Valerys said, "and you would let her remember you at all? Remember your cruelty, your existence, and believe that it is stemming from her own body?" Valerys looked at her a little disapprovingly but knew that in time all things were be corrected.
Just then she could sense that Akumu was beginning to use another technique.

Akumu saw the attack coming back toward him and prepared himself for the blow. He hadn't expected the woman to counter his attack and shoot it back, but he was good at defending against chakra and other attacks so it did not even break his tough scales. He drew his shield into his right hand afterwards, knowing now that he would need to protect himself, and grew the other two arms that he possessed. Now he was in full pure-blood form minus the wings, with four arms sprouting out of his body and shield held in his upper, right arm. That was a nasty trick... he thought, but prepared himself to counter with his shield next time.
He formed a set of handseals with his lower arms and let out line of chakra through the air that started to slice at everything in its path and moving toward Set herself. But Akumu knew as he released the Wind Scythe technique that she would attempt to reflect it, so Akumu pulled his shield around and held it in front of himself in a flash -- ready to counter whatever she may throw at him. He held a strong stance and put all of his energy into the shield, imbuing it with even a little of his chakra since he knew that he was not as good at these defenses with his shield... although he was hoping now to get better.
