Challenging a City (Open)

[slave]

Walking into the capitol city, Myou first noticed that this place had guards right out in the open. Walking to the center of the city, he noted most of the guards positions, and lost count of the number of civilans in the area. The guards were the only possible problem to Myou holding out till a ninja arrived, but he was to overconfident to think they would pose anything more then a distraction. Getting to the middle of a wide open space in the city, Myou knew he was ready to try this again. Just like last time, he looked to the sky first. Before he would look back to the crowd, Myou thought to himself Different country, same sky. Looking back into the city, Myou said the words that could get him killed, or prove his point: "I challenge anyone who thinks their better then me to fight me, and if noone steps foward, I will attack the closest people to me!" With that, he would pause for a reaction, and hope someone would fight, or, even better, a ninja would fight.

Maki entered the city from his training ... the time outside made him feel better about waiting for the guards to send the word to the Kusakage. Maki wanted to get back to the hotel room so he jumped from across the building tops.

Their hotel was a block away from the cities center. As they descended onto the hotel Bakii peeked up and looked to the cities center. "I feel a fighting spirit in this city.." Maki looked in that direction also wondering. "What are you talking about." Baki sneered at Maki "Only men of strength can feel another's strength" Maki turned and headed to the city's center where a guy stood in the middle staring into the sky. Maki was laying on a roof watching this guy. "Is that the great fighting spirit" "Yea ...thats the guy I felt."

"I challenge anyone who thinks their better then me to fight me, and if noone steps foward, I will attack the closest people to me!" The guy yelled out aloud. Thats what i've been waiting for ... Baki burst from Maki dropping to the street and approached the fighter in the middle of the center.

"You looking for a fight" Baki said to the man in the center. Maki hid himself but keeping an eye on Baki and the guy.

[slave]

Perfect Myou thought as young man in black stepped foward and asked if he was looking for a fight. Myou was glad to get this started, but he needed to know one thing that could make it even better. In response, Myou said "Yes, but first, something I need to know, are you a ninja, by any chance?" Myou knew this would be a good fight, but If he was a ninja this would be truely perfect. Myou could finally prove he was better then a ninja if he is. He would glare at the young man with his orange eyes, waiting for the response he just knew this man would give him.

[DeeDub]

Baki locked his eyes with the young man as he acknowledged his will to fight. The question seemed irrelevant in Baki's mind. Just to get the fight started he answered... "Yea.. i'm a ninja."

[slave]

Locking eyes with his opponent, Myou heard the exact words he had hoped he'd hear. He was about to fight a ninja. Knowing he needed a first advantage, Myou formed five handsigns, ending with a reverse dragon, before taking out a windmill shuriken and throwing it staight at the man, aimed for the chest. The projectile in the air, he would prepare for close range combat by wielding his kama in his right hand and a kunai in the other. Ready to see how the young man would react, Myou whispered to himself "Finally, I can prove myself." He would be sure to watch for the man to try to trick him, or even for someone else to join the fight.

Magen: Atsusanami (Demonic Illusion: Heat Wave)
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: Genjutsu
Effect: Stimulates the sense of touch within the opponent, creating a growing heat.
Special: "Hand Seals"- Dragon, Tiger, Ram, Dog, Reverse Dragon
Drawback: The effect is only illusion, meaning that if dispelled, the effects immediately dissipate.
Description: This attack targets the opponent's sense of touch, creating a feeling of growing heat all over the opponent's body. When first applied, it would be extremely difficult to notice, as the change in temperature would be next to nothing. However, this effect is constantly in growth, as the more motion that the opponent performs the greater the amount of heat that they obtain. By three turns of action, the effects would be noticeable, but one might not guess where the extra heat is coming from. By the time that five turns have passed, they will be sweating and panting, finding difficulty in breathing and moving. Any longer than that and the opponent's ability to fight becomes severely hampered.
Limit: Must know Phantasm Perception

[DeeDub]

As Myou, began his handsigns, Baki whipped out his scroll. "This is what i've been waiting for." The scroll opened and unrolled by itself. Myou opened and launched a windmill shuriken. Baki pressed his hand onto his scroll summoning a windmill shuriken of his own. Baki quickly flipped it open holding it in front of his chest.

He watched it come in and blocked it making a loud ''clang" as they clashed. Baki swung his shuriken back and tossed it at Myou aiming for his chest. After releasing the Windmill shuriken, Baki summoned three shuriken and he aimed them low for his legs.

Crap, a complete reversal! Myou thought as a look of shock swept over his face for a second. Seeing a windmill shuriken summoned out of a scroll wasn't the most shocking part, the fact it knocked his away and started coming staight at him was more shocking. Getting his overconfidence back, Myou twisted his body and leaned to the right, just enough to dodge the windmill shuriken, or so he thought. It barely hit his left shoulder, enough to hurt him and make him bleed, but not disable his left arm. Feeling the pain, Myou didn't move, in shock that it had hit him. Then it got worse as two shuriken hit Myou's upper right leg, and a third cut by on the inside of the leg, just like the windmill shuriken did to his left shoulder. Back out of shock, Myou made a small laugh as he put away his kunai and kama, took out the shuriken, and threw them back at the man. A second after the two shuriken were thrown, Myou started a full charge at the man forming handsigns as he charged. In pain from his leg, he planned to blast the oppenent with an electric sphere when he got into the range, the small sphere in his hand ready to expand at the right time in the charge.

Limit: Lightning Release Skill (Raiton no Jutsu)

[DeeDub]

The windmill shuriken and shuriken cut Myou in several places. Myou put away his kama and kunai. He made a string of handsigns. Lightining formed in his hand. Myou would charge forward at Baki.

Baki would get into his issunkuntou stance. As Myou got within range Baki would move his hips as he aimed a kick to Myou's chin when he got into close range.

The attack finishes when the ninja returns to the Issukuntou Stance afterwards.
Limits: Requires Issukuntou Stance

[slave]

Almost to his target, Myou didn't notice his oppenent getting into a stance. He was completely surprized when a kick hit him fast in the chin, knocking him into the air. Knowing he just lost an advantage, Myou expanded the sphere while in mid air, not even a foot off the ground yet. Falling backwards in the air now, he hoped the young man couldn't move eight meters in a second to be out of range, and that the genjutsu he used earlier would start to be noticable. Landing on his back, Myou was a little sore, getting up slowly and turning back to where his oppenent was to see if his attack hit.

[Finishing Vortex's Sphere]

[DeeDub]

Baki's kick landed square on Myou's chin he went flying but as he ascended the ball of lightning in his hand expanded shocking Baki and knocking him back. Baki looked up at Myou who was on the ground on his back.

Baki seen this as an opening.. he stood to perform an attack but suddenly felt an unknown heat as if the sun got closer. Baki tore off his jacket but it did no difference. Sweat gathered on his body. Maki was on the edge of his seat on the roof watching the heated action. "Why is it so damn hot....?!" "Hot?" Maki repeated. Baki hadn't jumped on this opportunity. "Something's wrong with Baki" Maki thought in his mind.

Maki drew a kunai as he jumped down... hoping to land on Myou and restrain him. If he were to land on him he would drive the kunai into his previously hurt shoulder.

[slave]

On his back, Myou wasn't sure how well the battle was going, if it was in his favor, or the other guys. A little sore, he was a little slow trying to get up and was easly landed on by another oppenent, amazingly with nearly the same facial features as the other guy. Looking at the similarities, he realized the situation he was in when the new man stabbed his left shoulder, right in the wound. Even with the pain in his shoulder, Myou couldn't stop himself from saying "what happened to the other guy, weather get to hot for him" then put a dumb grin on his face. Knowing he still needed to fight, Myou quickly formed the snake handsign, moving chakra into his arms, and tried to punch the guy on him right in the chest. If it hits, it's sure to be a shocking punch.

Raiton: Raikou no Ken
Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows the user the ability to send small jolts of electricity into the opponent with every hand-strike and arm block for three turns. Can be used in conjunction with most Taijutsu that deal with hand-strikes.
Special: Snake
Drawback: May backfire if user attacks a water clone or other water type barrier etc.
Description: User takes in a very deep breath and holds the snake handsign breifly while their chakra is diverted to their arms. With every punch or other hand strike, the user's chakra is sent out into the opponent's body in a small burst that is electrified. It doesn't cause paralysis immediately, but the strikes do accumulate and it adds to the power of each strike. Basically, you hit harder and you shock as well. A smaller shock is sent out whenever the user blocks an attack with their arms. It is significantly less severe, but it does cause discomfort to the opponent.
Limit: Lightning Release

[DeeDub]

Maki landed on Myou, slamming him back onto the ground. With a quick motion stabbing him in his shoulder with a kunai. Myou reacted to the pain as said with a dumb grin on his face. "what happened to the other guy, weather get to hot for him"

Maki looked down on him as he started to make a handsign. "I'm sorry friend but you're dead." Maki would wrench the kunai from his shoulder and stab down towards Myou's throat.

[slave]

Aparantly, this guy didn't like the joke Myou thought as the guy painfully took the kunai out of his shoulder. His oppenent then went for a stab at Myou throat, and Myou reactions kicked in a painful way, bringing up his right arm to block the kunai. Going partway through the arm, the kunai was stopped an inch away from Myou's throat, and started to have small amounts of electricity flowing through it. For the first time, Myou's confidence fell low and he thought I might not survive this. The grin off his face, Myou said what he hoped could end the fight: "I have probably less then a hour to live now, if you take the kunai out of my arm, this fight can stop before I do something desperate that can seriously harm you." Looking the man in the eye, Myou struggled to keep the kunai from his throat, and hoped this could be ended before he died.

[DeeDub]

Myou took the fatal blow in his arm instead of his neck. A current flowed throught the kunai sending electricity into his hand holding the kunai. Maki held firm still pushing on the kunai.

Myou threatened Maki as the pain shown on his face. His comment was somewhere between a threat and a plea for mercy. "You're in no place to threaten anyone. You asked for a ninja and you got one. Right now you see the sky and your death."

Maki pulled his Wakizashi from its hilt across his lower back. He would swing down at Myou's throat again.

[slave]

Myou's chances of ending this alive slimming with his oppenent not letting up. While hearing the words spoken to him, Myou did one smart thing that could save his life: using his left hand to get a kunai out. As the man on him brought out his wakizashi and slashed for Myou's neck, he quickly brought up the kunai to hold off the attack, first causing great pain in the shoulder to move it so fast, then a constant pain to hold off the blade. The blood loss starting to have an effect, Myou was starting to lose his ability to keep Junsui blacked out, and he could feel it. Then the worst then started to happen as Junsui said in their mind Myou! what have you been doing! Where are we! Out load, Myou said "Anytime but now, Junsui" No! Junsui screamed in their head, then started to try to take back control of the body. Still looking at the man trying them, their right eye started to shift into a blue color, as Junsui was regaining the ability to feel their body's senses, and Myou had enough control to hold off the blades.

[DeeDub]

Maki's wakazashi was clenched by a kunai that was retrieved by Myou. The stood there in an almost eternal clench. Maki was frustrated by Myou's perseverance. He couldn't imagine the pain Myou was in with a gaping would in his shoulder, a kunai in his forearm and several cuts.

Baki was on his hands and knees, sweating profusely. it felt like a desert as he stood there. His mind was racing "Why? Why? Why? He didn't get a scratch on me...!" "Huh" he said aloud. "Genjutsu" His hands curled as he yelled "Kai" aloud. The temperature settled back to normal, he stood up and turned his attention to Maki who was struggling with Myou.

Maki would hop to his feet keeping pressure down on Myou. Maki jumped back only a few feet away from Myou who was on the ground in a bloody mess. Maki would whip out another kunai and throw it aiming for his head.

[slave]

With Junsui fighting his way for control of the body, Myou was surprized to the the guy got off them. Then things got worse for Myou as Junsui started to make progress, as in gaining feeling and a little control over the whole body. Feeling the pain, Junsui made their body thrash about, and with his new control of his own mouth, Junsui screamed "Why the hell are we in PAIN, Myou!" In a power struggle for control of his mouth now, Myou yelled back "Shut up and let me handle this!" Right at the second Myou yelled, kunai hit their shoulder, ironicly where their head had been before Junsui thrashed them around the ground. Stopping the thrashing, Junsui yelled "What hit us! Let me see it!" "No, you need to let me handle this!" Myou said back as their whole body started to twitch as they continued to fight each other for contol of their body.

[DeeDub]

As Maki threw the kunai at a still grounded Myou, he thrashed uncontrollably. The kunai aimed for his head hit his shoulder instead. Maki stood and watched as Myou twitched on the ground. It seemed an inner battle was raging in him.

Baki walked up and watched also. "What's his problem?' Maki shrugged as the witnessed."To me it looks like a seizure." Maki reached for a kunai and three explosive notes. Baki watched him wrap the notes around the kunai. "If i'm correct thats going to be one mean explosion." "Yep" Maki answered.

Maki threw it. It would land a foot from Myou. "Take cover." maki would make the tiger handsign as a grand explosion would erupt from the kunai.

Grimacing at the horrid coffee my partner had brought me earlier, I’d decide to finally muster the courage to stop being polite and throw it away, still half full. As it rolled into the nearest bin, my partner’s facial expression would contort with surprise and confusion, wondering why the hell I did what I just did. But I’d offer no verbal response, only muttering a few words about how it was cold. Sure, I didn’t go through with it, but at least I finally showed him he wasn’t always right. I’d leave him behind as I turned the corner with a hasty pace, eager to be by myself for the rest of my lunch break. Guarding the capital wasn’t hard, but it sure took a lot of time. I couldn’t think of anything appetizing to eat at the moment, for that coffee was currently tearing away at my stomach. For this I’d walk aimlessly until the first pleasant smell that invaded my nostrils was found.

RUN!!!

No more than three seconds into my search came the piercing screams of another, his voice filled with blood curling fear. Automatically turning towards the source of danger, as per rigorous training, I’d find myself advancing towards what appeared to be an injured old farmer, hobbling in torn rags while grasping onto his right leg. As he scampered past, I’d stop him with my arm and ask him about his injuries.

FIGHTING! BLOOD!

And with that he was off. Over the radio I’d signal for back-up and a strong medical presence, for I believed more citizens might be hurt. Once the proper people were called, I’d advance towards the location of the fight with supreme stealth. It’d take me only a minute; I was ready.[/size]

[-- Hoshigake, Ryuji]

<sub>After days of travel I had finally arrived in the Grass City capital, here I would look for a connection to the Grass hidden village. Unfortunately I stumbled into a fight that was erupting. Smiling to myself I watched from afar sat on top of a nearby building to observe. The two in the middle were fighting energetically. One of the nin was obviously far superior to the other and was blatantly winning. I watched the scene, wondering how long it would take for one of them to die.

Suddenly a large explosion erupted from the ground. I smiled and chuckled to myself. What would the city guard have to say when they arrived? I assumed they wouldn't be pleased. Slowly I took a scroll from my bag, taking an ink brush from it I popped open a small ink well and began painting six wolves on the scroll. I readied some chakra within myself in case I needed to protect myself from the writhing pair.

Smiling I pulled up my face mask and ran my hand through my hair, luckily I had put my headband away so it would be difficult to spot that I was a ninja. For now I would sit and watch, waiting for the outcome to be decided.

Screw it! I might as well mix things up a little. Summoning the chakra from within myself I let it flow into the paintings, using the chakra to bring the beasts to life they quickly ripped themselves from the scroll until they were all aligned before me.

Splitting the six into small groups of three I directed three of them at the nin on top of the other man, who seemed to be winning and left the other three by my side.

The three wolves would attack quickly from three different angles, one would pounce and try and land on the mans back, the other two would attack a second later from the sides, not making their presence obvious until the first wolf had attacked.

Watching them I rolled my scroll up and put it back in my bag and readied myself for the fight I had just opted into. It had begun.</sub>
