[Tenkai & Zetsu vs Nirashi]

[Tenkai]

Valley of the End

OoC: Rules
-- Posting order: Tenkai, Zetsu, Nirashi
-- IIC: 1.5 days
-- No scenery change

Setting:

• Watefall
  
• Stones and Rocks
  
• Two giant statues

BiC: Tenkai would enter on the side of the Madara statue, standing there on his head, she awaited for her partner to hurry along beside her. His name was Tomoshibi, a fellow medical ninja like herself which may have been a good or bad thing. She wouldn't over analyze the situation as her opponent had yet to arrive, but there she would stand.

Her weaponry was station accordingly to the easiest access for her. This was if she was to do a 'last minute' fixing of her weapons it would make her life much easier. It was only now that she began to lose her passion of fighting as her opponent made her wait. Which side was he coming in again? Tenkai didn't know, so she looked eagerly at both sides.

[tomoshibi]

Yawning he would walk in a few minutes after his partner, on the side of the Madara statue as well, Kurai Karasu propped over his right shoulder. Looking to the top of the statue's head he would see a kunoichi, probably his partner, he had been told he would be fighting alongside a kunoichi medic. Firming his grip on the haft of the naginata he leapt up to the top of the head and walked over to her, offering his free left hand and saying, "Hey, I'm Tomoshibi and you are?" Quickly he glanced around taking in the scenery, looking aroudn for their opponent as well saying, "Do you know any specifics about our opponent?" eyes never stopping their scan of the area.

[N I R A S H I]

Nirashi would arrive to the scene, stepping atop the mountain of the famous Shinju Harishima which stood opposite of the mountain of Uchiha Mandara. Perhaps the past would reflect on the battle of current times, seeing the paths each entered upon. Nirashi beared his gourd, which was straped heavily upon his back. He would crack his knuckles and strenghten his body, balancing his body in the Kei Dodai Stance. Moving his right leg forth, bending it slightly, he would follow up in the stance by lowering his back slightly and hardening his body and stance.

The battle could now...commence!

Nirashi would notice as his opposition started conversing between each other. Nirashi wouldn't waste any time and would begin a series of rapid handsigns. From his gourd two streams of sand would steam and dash forward towards his opponents who were approxiamately twenty to twenty-five meters away from him on the opposing statue. The streams of sand would shoot quickly, one stream aiming for each opponent.

As the streams stemed forward, an additional clump of sand would seep from his gourd into his hands and mold with the help of his chakra into the shape of a sphere. With the sphere formed Nirashi would toss the sphere forward forcefully. Now, throwing a sphere of sand sucessfully twenty meters was a stretch, so to aid his ball of sand he would swiftly draw his free arms back and push forward. From his arms and the action of a push, a funnel of wind would source and push behind the ball of sand. With the addition push and support the ball of sand travel rate would increase rapidly and once it neared the two shinobi it would forcefully explode, releasing a load of shrapnel towards the two.

The shrapnel would spew outward with force and would puncture and slash up the two shinobi if the attack wasn't evaded or blocked.

Suna Bakuhatsu no Jutsu (Sand Explosion Technique)
Rank: "C"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: A technique that allows the user to take a small amount of sand to form the size of a ball that fits the palm of their hand. The user is capable of using the sand and allow the sand to move in the air. The explosion is mostly used for a distraction but is strong enough to distract opponents.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: Does not create a strong explosion, just strong enough to harm an opponent someone to stop them.
Description: The sand spreads out exploding outwards in all directions. The sand pushes forth being confined with the very chakra to where when it explodes outwards the sand is strong like glass. This technique cuts and slashes opponents if they are to close. In better terms the technique is more like a small grenade to where shrapnel spreads out in all directions.
Limit: Must have the Sand Release, must know Sand Control.

Futon: Kazepusshu
Rank: D
Skill: Taijutsu
Effect: When the user pushes out with there palm, creates a small funnel of air that can push the opponent back or over, but it causes little if any pain. This however can be a very annoying jutsu.
Special: --
Drawback: --
Description: The user quickly gathers a small amount of chakra to there hand and pushes it outward with there palm as a small funnel/gust of air blows out with enough force to push the opponent back or off balance.
Limit: Must have Wind Release

[Tenkai]

And he arrives...

Their opponent appeared before them, walking in from the direct opposite direction from them. He entered in from the very famous statue of Shinju Harishima. Tenkai had a small smile upon her face, perhaps this will lead into future outcomes of this match. Oh well, it was just amusing at this point.

The other ninja cracked his knuckles, probably a sign of him being ready. Tenkai gave out a small sigh as she began to fidget in place. Moving his right leg forth while bending it slightly, it appeared that he was moving into a stance of some sort. From his gourd two streams of sand would steam and dash forward towards them. Interesting sight to see sand be manipulated by chakra.

So it begins...

More and more sand and closer and closer it appeared to be coming to them. "We have to act quickly, it appears that he can manipulate the sand with chakra." She quickly said to her partner as she readied herself for the attack. If that wasn't enough, it appeared a ball of sand was being launched towards them. Sort of weird in her opinion.

She didn't have much time to react -- so here goes nothing. Inhaling deeply while bring her hands to her mouth, she spewed out a large blast of wind capable of leveling out nearly anything. She was hoping this would at least knock the sand back to his statue and possibly damaging him; if only slightly. By using her chakra she was able to create a deadly gust of wind.

Name: Fuuton - Daitoppa (Great Breakthrough)
Rank: C Rank
Type: Ninjutsu
Effect: ---
Description: This is a Ninjutsu which utilizes the Wind Element. After bringing their hands to their mouth, the user will blow a large blast of wind capable of leveling almost anything in its way.
Limit: Wind Release

((Suckie post, sue me .-.))

[tomoshibi]

Scanning his eyes would lock onto their opponent as he walked onto the head of the opposing statue. As the two streams of sand rocketed towards them he had just enough to think, 'Sand, eh, I wonder how he'll use it, besides this... If he can use it any other way, in any case.' As the thought entered his mind he saw the ball of sand propell towards them and heard, "We have to act quickly, it appears that he can manipulate the sand with chakra."

With a bark of laughter he grabbed at his partners arm, should she resist he would merely push her away, he wasn't sure what the sand ball was, but it couldn't be good to have been hurtled at them. And pushing chakra into his feet, he pushed off from the stone head, leaping over the side to the water below. Should he have grabbed the kunoichi he would procede to pull her close and begin to spin, should she have fought it and he would have just spun on his own, naginata extended to slice through the water and attempt to deflect any oncoming sand. As they plumeted, should he have grabbed her, he would say just , "He fights using sand, and sand and water don't mix well. I'm not sure about Chakra strengthend sand, but I'm hoping the same properties will apply. Hopefully he'll use up a lot of chakra in an effort to get us, and we'll have ample time to formulate a proper strategy." As he fell he continued with the spinning manuver, building up momentum.

(we are still falling and spinning rapidly)

[N I R A S H I]

OOC: Okay. Zetsumei's post. I understand it. So, Tenkai you need to respond if you a grabbed or not. Also if you are grabbed that means Great Breakthrough never occured, seeing he grabbed you at the time my sand and Sand Explosion Technique occured.

[Tenkai]

OoC: ((Uhm, I can do both...))

Damn. Why?

Tenkai had spoken to her partner, and before she can defend them from the opponent's attack, she was grabbed. That pissed her off because she wasn't a girl needing such protection but even so he was just looking after her. She resisted slightly as he gave her a push a way. Not enough time, now or never.

As her partner jumped off of the statue appearing to just jump directly down, Tenkai decided to continue on her defense. Inhaling deeply while bring her hands to her mouth, she spewed out a large blast of wind capable of leveling out nearly anything. She was hoping this would at least knock the sand back to his statue and possibly damaging him; if only slightly. By using her chakra she was able to create a deadly gust of wind.

The blast of wind went straight forward the sand and shrapnels of the sand ball, deflecting and reflecting such an attack. At least her partner was protected for the time being, but the wind didn't just stop as it collided with the wind and such. The wind continued its travel back to her opponent with the sand remains following.

Monkey see, monkey do

By concentrating and releasing chakra off of her feet, she took the moment as the sand and gust of wind would by directed towards her opponent, she pushed off of the statues as well. Spinning would only increase my momentum, better chance of escaping and relocating for now. Her body was spinning as fast as it could, aiming directly for the water below.

She flipped her body to an up-right position and spread her legs into a strong brick like stance, with chakra pumping through her feet for landing. Plump! The water pulsed and she was on top of the body of the waterfall. Splashes were about, but overall she was safe. Tenkai turned her head towards her opponent and waited for another plan. "What now?"

Water water everywhere, and not a sip to drink.

Reason for Editing: Adding in OOC.

[N I R A S H I]

Nirashi watched attentively as the young girl would spew out a powerful gust of wind which came rapidly in his direction. His sand was caught in the powerful chakra laced attack and was now coming back towards him. The young shinobi narrowed his eyes at the sight and began to quickly perform a series of handsigns. Nirashi then spewed a huge gust of wind, a counter to Daitoppa. The powerful gusts would definitely stalemate and both equal in strenght and power would subside.

Nirashi would peer down the statue and notice the two ninja who apparently jumped from the stature and went spiraling down into the waters. The young shinobi would sigh and focus his channeled and stockpiled chakra releasing it forward and out. The chakra would attract high winds circulating around the shinobi, and would form a ball of compressed winds. The ball would circulate and split into two arms of winds.

The young boy would watch as the two ninja were in free fall and spinning. Seeing they were doing such they would not be able to change direction and when they landed would probably be a little disoriented from jumping from such a height and spinning.

Nirashi's arms would extend downward stretching and heading towards the ninja. They would surely land in the water before he could successfully grasp them mid-air, but as soon as they made their land his arms of wind would be right there ready to grasp the two in its clutches.

[Tenkai]

He just doesn't give up, does he?

Tenkai would remain on the pool of water, as what appeared to be two arms made of pure air and chakra comes charging at them. It seemed that the reach of the arms was quite far, as it chased them that far. After using the great break through, and falling from such a height she was a bit off her feet, but not out. Jumping backwards she began to do flips trying to escape his wind arms.

This is just great... Tenkai was obviously pissed on how he can use jutsu after jutsu after jutsu, without giving them a break. Didn't he need a break too? He should, or so she thought. As she flipped the wind arms only followed, and being on top of water didn't help the factor that he wasn't using sand. So much for her partner's plan, just bull s h i t.

A fight for my life

Kick and punch and try as she might, the wind only suppressed her, grasping her and taking the life out of her. She couldn't resist, it felt so overwhelming. What was this technique? She knew it was a wind style, but even she never got so far into its release. It was an unpleasant site, but now she was in the fist of the wind arm, and her life in the hands of her opponent.

As much as she tried to, her head would only glance towards her partner for a moment before turning back to its original position. She wanted to know how he was doing, if he escaped. He did dive underwater, while she landed on top of it. No way he could of been caught by this jutsu, perhaps he would even think ahead as to save her from this predicament.

[tomoshibi]

((OOC: Tenkai can either post the success again, or you can create two scenarios... Your choice Nirashi.))

He had proceeded to rotated rapidly and taking deep breaths, up until he entered the water, the blade of his Naginata spinning to slice cleanly into the water boring a hole that was quickly filled in. After righting himself and regaining full composure, which took him several key seconds, he looked around, assessing the situation. Looking up he noticed Tenkai battling with some kind of arm seemingly made from air molded with chakra.

Quickly pulling himself together he began to swim as fast as he could, then realized Kurai Karasu was slowing him down. With a mental sigh he dropped the Naginata into the depths and, wasting no time, drew his limbs close, ready to swim. Channeling chakra into his hands and feet, he mentally berated his partner for not diving in as well, this chakra consumption would be unnecessary otherwise. With a great heave he pushed as the water, using his chakra grip to propel himself faster then he could on his own.

Doing this, the time to reach the kunoichi was drastically cut, and with nothing else he could think of, he planted his feet firmly on the water below him, reached out of the water, and grabbed at the struggling Kunoichi's ankles. Should he succeed in grabbing both or even one of her ankles he would attempt to drag her down with all the strength he could muster. This would waste precious oxygen, but it would be easy to go up for more unseen, they were, approximately, one hundred meters below their opponent, so he would likely have difficulty seeing.

Damned Kunoichi fool, not thinking things through...

Should his partner have been yanked down without having gathered enough oxygen he would have to lend her some of his. Should he have not gotten hold of her at all he would simply walk beneath her and grab at her ankles every now and then until he succeeded in dragging her into the relative safety of the water. All the while he would be thinking up several strategies on how to defeat this ninja who obviously had a superior jutsu arsenal and chakra reservoir.

[N I R A S H I]

Having caught the young kunoichi in his clutches Nirashi would smirk as he stood above the Senju statue. Nirashi's eyes would narrow and a sinister smirk would cross his smooth creamy face as he would bring his arm forth and pull up. As he pulled, he could feel stress and tension in the rising of his arms, he knew not where the source of the tension was, and cared not. "The hard way eh..." The young shinobi would shake his head and would bring his fingers and fist down in a crushing motion, signifying the crushing of Tenkai's body. The stress from the pulling and the final clasp from Nirashi would definitely be enough to finish the girl off.

Serving its purpose Nirashi would end the Eakobushi technique, the wind dispearsing from around him and his body becoming laxed. The girl's body would drop from mid-air and probably collaspe into the waters with her partner, Tomoshibi. Wasting no chakra or time, Nirashi would resume his stance, but would reach into his vest for his M.P.Gs. After recieving the items, he would toss them on and activate the 2x zoom on his standard scope.

The young shinobi would, in a stern and firm stance, observe actions below, watching and surveying attentively at all going on. He was a user of Sand, there would be no reason for him to endanger himself by hoping in or towards water, nor was there reason for him to aimlessly hop down to take on the remaining ninja below.

OoC: ((To clarify, that is an attempt Nirashi, correct? The reason why I asked because it seems to be you bypassed his tugging, and just lifted her in the air, 'crushed' her with wind and chakra, and let her go... Would you have succeed in your grasp, that would happen correct? He tugged on Tenkai, therefore she decides what happens to her, but you post what you would do if she was or was not dragged beneath the water.))

Okay. Right there Tenkai, you conveyed your capture by my Eakobushi arm.

Right there he shows as he was underwater, his first glance up, he noticed my arm of wind and you battling it, so this is probably during your evasion flips.

By this time my Eakobushi arm would have hold of you and you would be captured as you RPed. Zetsu posted that when he looked up he saw the arm and he took time to drop his Naginata in the water. Now.

I RPed crushing you with the fist instead of pulling you up, becasue apparently Zetsumei had your ankles, as I stated:

Now, yes it is still an attempt, but the chances of you evading are pretty grim. But yes, you can proceed and make your post.

[Tenkai]

OoC: ((I only wanted to make sure you posted an attempt, as I am well aware of the rest. I shall post rather soon, so except an edit.))

BiC:

Tug-of-War

She would be entrapped with this wind arm seeming to have a grasp upon her, while at the same time below her her partner would tug and grab on her ankles, trying to save her by pulling her beneath the surface of the water. Tensions aroused as it appeared to be a tug of war battle between her partner and her opponent's jutsu.

Life, air, suffocation, and pain was the key words that was floating along the young shinobi's mind. Her body was being crushed while the air within her was being taken out of her. Most likely the fact of being in the grip of her opponent's jutsu. She tried to fight it, but he body was giving in. Wiggling around, trying to release random strands of chakra, anything to break loose.

Her training, her devotion, everything was coming to an end. She clenched her mouth in a not now, not today, not ever attitude. Tenkai was a determined individual, and wouldn't be one to go down easy. At that moment of feeling powerful, Tomoshibi used his chakra to provide a sturdy standing point upon the water and now grabbed her with his two arms instead of just his one.

A song was heard, but not from the Fat Lady

It wasn't over, and Tenkai rejoiced a little as a trickle of a tear drop fell from her eyelash. She was yanked from the grasp of her opponent's jutsu just barely, yet she managed to come out alive and fell within the safety of the water -- like her partner planned to do. Her oxygen supply was short so in order to remain oxygen levels, she locked lips with her partner as they were under water.

In a few seconds later they both traveled up to the surface needing more oxygen obviously, as they noticed the wind jutsu releasing, fading away and moving away from their direction. Tenkai started to cough a little as she was treading in the water. Besides being shaken up a bit from that experience, she was okay.

Moving onwards, moving faster, moving with a reason

Tenkai had some injuries on her body, mainly her arms and legs. With a few breathes of fresh air, her chest pains went away. "Hey, do you think you can heal up these wounds for me?" She wanted him to at least heal the pain if he could, if not... she would just have to endure it. She wasn't in shape to mold chakra at this moment but she is more than capable of moving about.

It wasn't that the jutsu forbid the use of chakra, or stole her chakra, it was that she couldn't concentrate it -- lack of focus. Her mind was scrambled and about, but one thing is for sure, she hated her opponent, and thanked her partner even more. "What is the plan now? He seems to be a long range fighter, so close range would be best... But how do we get closer, if he will just use a long range jutsu?"

Just what rank is he?

[tomoshibi]

Rising to the surface beside his partner he tred water for a few moments before the voice of his partner broke into his concentration. The words "Hey, do you think you can heal up these wounds for me?", the fact that his partner oculdn't heal her own wounds shocked him at first, but he quickly regained composure after thinking about what had just happend. Nodding slightly he stopped pumping his arms and began concentrating the green chakra in one, the other he kept just under the surface, ready to channel chakra into it and shoot himself down at the slightest hint of an attack.

The green glow enveloping his hand, he moved it to her shoulder and said, "Just be sure to try and keep the limb still so healing it will be easier." Slowly moving his hand along her arm a mere half inch away from her skin, pausing at each wound, he began healing the limb. That one done he swam to her other side and performed the same process. As he was about to dive under to check her legs for a need of healing the words, "What is the plan now? He seems to be a long range fighter, so close range would be best... But how do we get closer, if he will just use a long range jutsu?" invaded his ears.

He paused before diving under to say, "I thought up something while you were above water..." he carefully avoided mention of her capture and near fatal experience, continuing, "It's quite simple and involves some old Academy tricks, but simplicity is often the key to victory. I'll explain later, for now I'll finish healing you..." That said he dove under the water and proceded to create the green glow while underwater, healing the injuries on her leg using the same process that he had on her arms.

Rising back to the surface he breathed deeply, his chakra reservoir wasn't in the best conditions from the healing, but he tred water with his legs, keeping his hands ready to channel chakra into and push himself to the depths at the slightest hint of an attack. Taking a deep breath he kept his eyes in the general direction of their opponent, darting around to see if he moved at all, saying at last, "One of us will have to act as a distraction, the other will have to create a Bushin of some kind, and climb up the statue to sneak behind him, some old Academy tricks would come in handy to get up without him noticing. Slience is the key here, the one scaling the cliff would have to remain silent and hidden... What tools do you have on you right now?"

[N I R A S H I]

Nirashi would scan the location below and keep his eyes locked on the two ninja. He beared his M.P.Gs which would allow him to accurately watch and survey the ninja accurately, having the zoom activated, he could see exactly what the ninja were doing. Damn, having Sound Release jutsu would be beneficial to me, then I could hear and see all my opponents would be planning. Ah well. He would state continuing to watch the two. If this battle gets too boring I guess I will have to simply kill these guys with Slyfer or something which would be boring on my part, but pretty fun and amusing to watch. He thought as he continued to watch the ninja from above.

[Tenkai]

Plan B -- Up, up, and away

Tenkai and Tomoshibi had seemed to have their plan all set. It was now time to put it in action. For this new plan to work, Tenkai would have needed to know her opponent's location to an extend. She pulled out her binoculars from her equipment and scanned the top of the 1st statue. There... She saw him looking directly at her.

She gasped as she turned to her partner, "Quick!" She placed her binoculars back quickly and then placed her right hand into her weapon pouch. Taking out a smoke grenade she set it off as smoke quickly released from their area. In her point of view it appeared that her opponent was using some sort of binoculars too; so his vision should be clouded as well.

Since all of this was happening at a much faster rate Tenkai did a string of hand signs and then shot out four fire balls simultaneously all aimed for her opponent. She wasn't honestly expecting him to be hit by the move, but it was worth the shot. They were rather small in size, but still a jutsu itself.

Hopefully they at least damage the area or part of the statue of where he was standing and knocking him from the top of the statue. Because she used the smoke as a decor she hoped the jutsu will be more discreet then it would have been if not have using the smoke. The smoke began to clear as quickly as the fireballs came, and all seemed the same.

Tenkai then ran to the landing of the 1st statue, standing at his feet away from sight of his opponent. She didn't climb up it, but she was merely standing there awaiting further actions to be taken. That was her part in the plan anyways, part 1 complete... Now, for her partner to do his part.

Name: Katon - Housenka no Jutsu (Mythical Fire Phoenix Technique)
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: The user is capable of spiting out, or emitting out a series of small fireballs in the size of a six inches to a foot in diameter to where the user is capable of hurling them towards the opponent.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: The user is only capable of hurling out four small fire balls towards the opponent at one time.
Description: The user performs a few quick handseals as they quickly take the same concept as that of the Goukakyuu no Jutsu. The user then spits out or hurls out up to five small sized fire balls towards the enemy. Each fire ball creates massive amounts of burns but does not burst forth in an explosion. As each fire ball makes contact with something they spread out the fire creating a more of an area effect within the fire. The user is capable of using this technique in conjunction with multiple secondary weapons such as kunais or shurikens. The opponent is uncapable of noticing the kunais or the shurikens until the very fire is extingwishes in mid air. This technique is used typically to hide or to be used as a diversion for more of a powerful technique.
Limit: Must have the Fire Release

Quickly he would breath in as deeply as he could, then the smoke went off. Cutting off the intake of oxygen as the smoke began to envelop him he dove. Using the smoke as a cover and the water to aid in hiding it he performed a few hand seals creating a bunshin that would surface and dive occasionally in no particular pattern. To their opponent it would likely look like he continued an attempt to regain his Naginata, which would probably be interpreted as part of a plan.

This done the real him would swim to the waterfall as fast as he could without consuming any chakra. As he reached the space behind it he would come up for air and ready himself for the climb. After about thirty seconds he would charge chakra into his hands and feet and climb up the partially waterless location in a swift, lizard-like fashion. After about 60 meters the water ahead would become too narrow to safely climb and breathe and the fireballs would reach their mark.

Phase 2

At this point he would move his pouch to his side and pull out an old academy trick. Cloak firmly in hand he donned it and exited the relative safety of the waterfall in one swift motion, there would be a small flickering show of him for a mere half second, but his opponent would likely be too concentrated on his partner or bunshin. Hoping the kunoichi would be alright he would continue his lizard-like crawl over to beneath the statues head, out of his opponents view and remove the cloak, placing it neatly back into the pouch. This done he would proceed with more caution then before, carefully not to make a sound now that the waterfall no longer blanketed him.

The Grand Finale was approaching

By the time he reached the underside of the chin he would don the cloak again, for a precautionary measure. As he climbed he would pull one kunai, one senbon and two explosive tags from his pouch and wrap a tag around the kunai hilt and one around the senbon, adding some of his chakra to each. Climbing up the remaining distance, careful to make no sound he would sneak around to get behind Nirashi, should he have moved or not. This done, should there be no kind of defence surrounding the shionbi, he would throw the senbon at his neck followed by the kunai between his legs, timed so they would reach their mark in unison, flying through the air without a sound. At that point he would form the ram seal and set off the tags so one would blow up the shinobi's neck, the other his legs. Should there be a shield of some kind up he would wait for it to go down before proceeding with the plan. After the senbon and kunai flew he would change positions, hoping the fight was over, his chakra was almost depleted and he was laboring to stop himself from gasping for air.

Bunshin no Jutsu (Clone Skill)
Type: GenJutsu
Rank: E-rank
This is a basic technique known to most Genin. Bunshin no Jutsu creates a clone of the user, which can be used as a means to create a diversion, distraction, or cause confusion. Like Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Art of the Shadow Doppelganger), these clones will simply disappear if come into contact, but unlike Kage Bunshin, they are substanceless, and thus cannot do any damage. Bunshin no Jutsus have no Shadows what so ever

Kakuremino no Jutsu (Magic Cloak of Invisibility Skill)
Type: GenJutsu
Rank: E-rank
This jutsu is where one uses a cloak or piece of cloth to make oneself blend in with the background, interpreting oneself invisible. Konohamaru uses this technique constantly in the beginning of the Naruto series to try and defeat Uzumaki Naruto. Although he doesn't use cloaks that really disguise himself well, his ambushes on Naruto have been rather unsuccessful.

Jibaku Fuda: Kassei, Ž©”šŽDEŠˆ (Exploding Tag: Activate)
Rank: "E" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: The user is capable of activating a different type of Exploding tags. By utilizing their chakra in which they placed upon the tag before hand the user is capable of making the tags explode out forth in a devistating fasion.
Special: Ram
Drawback: ---
Description: A Simple technique where the user performs the Ram seal as they utilize a fraction of their chakra into the very Tag, allowing the tag to explode forth. The tag looks like yellow wordings and is not the familiar red wordings along the tag. Each tag that is used must be done before hand, and this is used as a time mechanisim in order to be capable of being used.
Limit: An academy Jutsu that all is capable of performing if they wish to do so.

OoC: Time's up Nirashi =/

BiC: The fireballs came in collision with the statues as Nirashi began to dodge the attacks. He jumped aside, and moved about as the first two fireballs missed their target. Then the second fireball came at full force and smashed into Nirashi as it burst into flames. No doubt he would have second degree-first degrees burns over parts of his body. As Nirashi began falling from the air, the last fireball smacked Nirashi head on finishing up the job more or less. Tenkai would have never thought of her attack as a success, but it was. Nirashi's body fell upon the rocky top of the 1st head as is body burned. Only a matter of time until his partner came in to take out the trash.

Perhaps this is how the battle should of end -- with Madara's side victorious. Hope, is still alive.

[N I R A S H I]

Nirashi was destroyed and obliterated, his body burning and the match lost.
