Byakuya vs. Jens

[kkira]

Rules:

All weapons on bio, no need to post them.

IIC time: 2 days

No attacking on first post

Location: A grass field that is found in the grass village. It is 100 meters by 100 meters. The sun beams down bright and strong. The grass comes to the top of the shoes.

I entered my new arena, feeling a fight coming on. I looked to Venom, my spider animal companion, and said, "Can you feel it?" My gourd was heavy and my six arms swayed in the breeze. Venom could feel it she told me purring.

[Hopalong]

Jens entered the arena from the western area, as it appeared to be a neatly, well kept square shape. He spotted the enemy right away, easily standing out in this grassy field, the grass being 2-5 inches each. The foe at the nothern entrance, he placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, ready to draw it, in anticipation of how this man would approach. He remained silent in the meantime.

[kkira]

I looked on at my opponent, who was ten meters away. "Hello," I said aloud, "It seems as if we have to fight. I hate waiting...so let's please end this quickly." I nodded to Venom and I felt spiders crawling up my shoes and on to my legs. Tens of spiders crawling all over me. As the spiders tickled my legs and crawled on me I pulled a kunai out of my pocket with my bottom right hand. I then used my upper left hand to snag 2 shuriken and launch them at my opponent. As soon as I launched the shuriken I created a sticky spider web, and shot it. I did so hate waiting...

2 Shuriken Thrown

1 Kunai in Lower Right Hand

[Hopalong]

Jens gave a tiny nod, "I wish you luck." He only said this as he was unsure why he was fighting his opponent, so he had no idea if it'd be correct to kill him or not, did he deserve it? Either way, he had to at least incapacitate this man. The foe seemed quick to move to a long distance tactics. He noted two projectiles, followed by something appearing to be like a web firing after him. Due to the distance of 10 meters between the two, he didn't need to waste a Shunshin no Jutsu on this attack, a simple sidestep to his right and his opponent's left would suffice. All three of the projectiles would soar past him as a result.

He remained quiescent, reaching into his butt bag, and placed his hand on a fragmentation grenade. He pulled the little wire from the top, triggering the fuse, and tossed it. No winds in air, it was bound to land in front of his foe, where he aimed it. Due to the short distance, he aimed for a quick throw, propelling it in a straight line to make it reach it's destination quicker. The aim performed with the grenade would cause it to hit him in the guts if he did not react in time, not to mention exploding three seconds after it reaches it's destination, the ten meter distance, shaving off half the time it takes to explode.

I saw my opponent dodge my attacks and I thought, "Hmmm, well that's a little unfair." Then I tried to surpress a laugh, suddenly my opponent started getting out a grenade. As he pulled off the cap I released sand from my large gourd on my back, pulling it to surround me. Two meters of it in fact. After doing so he had thrown the grenade, and so I created five sand falcons. One sand falcon would stop the grenade, however it was still five meters away. My opponent might be hurt by it to, but if anything happened to me I'd merely pull out more sand to protect my body. The other four falcons I sent forward for my opponent, hoping that they would collide with him and rip his body apart.

While I was doing this Venom stretched her body out and thought, That man is attacking, Byakuya. To help Venom shot a web out him from her opened mouth, hoping that it would tangle around his feet where she was aiming. Spiders still crawled on my legs and lower torso.

[OOC: Hope this post doesn't sound like too much bs lol ]

Jens watched the grenade stop between the two, making it five meters into it's travel. This meant that both ninja were at risk, as it would explode for a 15 meter radius. Even considering the sand's presence, it's strength most likely was not capable of completely stopping the force of the fragments, only being five meters away.

On the other hand, this sand shinobi was at major risk, having no form of defense in the slightest. He did have his tactical jutsu though. Gathering chakra in his ankles and feet, he moved backwards at a non-human like speed. "Shunshin." In a simple second, he gained an extra ten meters away from the grenade. Sadly, he was still at risk, as once it exploded, a few shards hit him, still having reasonable force. A couple of fragments hit his torso, luckily not deep enough to kill him.

Lastly there was the issue of four falcons charging at him. Thanks to the extra distance, he gained a little more time to react. Moving to quickly unsheathe his katana, he spotted the birds soaring at him at a fast speed, and noticed something that would make destroying them easier. Seeing they were all traveling together in practically a straight line together, all that he'd need to do is line his katana up, a meter in front of his torso, the sharp end facing the falcons. They would all be sliced in half once they collided with the blade.

(OOC: It is fine. Except you said I didn't have a defense...but I do. My sand. But other than that it is good.)

I watched as the bomb exploded, and I easily relied on more sand from my gourd to block the fragments that went shooting toward me. I moved the sand away once the fragments were gone to see how my opponent was doing. He had made it so it seemed, with some sort of jutsu no doubt. However, he had still been injured in some ways. That made his movements just a bit slower...still however he blocked my falcons with ease. I cursed and ready myself for another attack, holding my kunai tighter, still as just a defense. What move would I make at this point? What would I do?

My opponent was now twenty meters away...that was not how I preferred it. So I jumped on top of my animal companion, Venom. She and I moved quickly forward, and as we did I myself shot a webbing down at my opponent. Meanwhile, Venom would also shoot a web forward. Try to avoid that, I thought. As I shot my webbing I reached my middle hands together and formed a barrage of handsigns, and I then made ten senbon made from wind. I then threw these at my opponent...just in case. I threw them in an arc, that way dodging would be more difficult. Of course, he might dodge, but he couldn't block this needles with his katana...And then there was the webbing.

1 Kunai in Bottom Hand

[Hopalong]

The man, using his sand to block the fragments, appeared to take a more directive approach at the sand shinobi. As the foe began his rush, he sheathed his katana with one hand, and using the other to reach into his butt bag, getting a decent grasp on three hira-shuriken. Each one was in between one of his fingers, each one occupying their own space, the blades not cutting him. Observing his opponents actions, he watched two webs and some sort of projectile created by a jutsu, of which he could not depict.

Since they were all aimed in his direction, he decided to just simply move around it. But normal speed would fail him this time, the webs already half way on their course. Quickly more chakra focused in his feet and ankles, "Shunshin!" Though for this instance, a normal shunshin would fail him, luckily he knew more forms. "Ko!" With this, he moved at another high speed, this time though going in an arc motion. With this, he easily dodged the webs, and the needles, which arced on a different side by mere coincidence, all missed.

The ninja who he was fighting still moving to him, only five meters away from him now, was in a perfect situation to get hit. Using the shuriken in hand, he cocked his fist pack, and sent it forward, along with his clenched fist loosening along with the flick of his wrist, causing the shuriken to soar at this ninja's upper torso.

I watched as my opponent dodged all of my attacks and I sighed. How long would we keep playing this game of cat and mouse? I was still watching as my opponent ran around me, and he had drawn a shuriken. This of no problem to me. He threw the shuriken and deflecting it was no great feat. I had already drawn a kunai knife sometime earlier, and although this new shuriken was going for my upper torso my bottom right hand could easily move up that high. I didn't even have to waste time getting the kunai out. After I had deflected the simply thrown object Venom and I turned quickly to our opponent, who was now just five meters away.

I created a simple barrage of handsigns with my top two hands, and then forced chakra to my throat. If he was going to dodge all of my attacks then I best give him an attack that will take up a lot of area. I opened up my mouth and shot thousands of air needles forward. They would spread out in a cone-like way, covering a wider ranged then any of my previous attacks.

[OOC: You made a major grammatical error, and sorry to exploit it, I'm just in that kind of mood >D]

Unfortunately the man's attempts to dodge would only end up causing him injury, as it appeared he only took the effort to deflect one of the shuriken, causing two of them to still plunge into his upper torso. This would most likely not be enough to prove fatal, but it was damage.

Upon seeing the man attempting to deflect the single shuriken, Jens then moved to assaulting the man with another attack, hoping to assure his fall. Working quick to form the hand signs for his next jutsu, inhaling at the same time he then brought his right hand up to his lips, index finger and thumb specifically, chakra forming in the tips. As he exhaled, the chakra became hotter, then shot out of his hands, turned into a fire bolt. One foot in diameter, it aimed to his the man in his upper torso once again, hoping for greater damage as a result of hitting the wounds created by the shuriken. Due to the lesser handsigns needed for the jutsu, he would be able to fire his jutsu first. If the enemy managed to still get out his jutsu in time, any air needles that came into contact with the fire bolt would simply cause the fire in the technique to expand making it bigger, and hopefully consuming more needles.

If needles ended up managing to be fired out, also avoiding the fire bolt, Jens would respond to the sound of the man unleashing the jutsu at him. Chakra swelling in his feet and ankles, he sacrificed his final Shunshin to avoid this attack. He moved once again in an arc motion, his landing place where the jutsu would end was located four meters behind his foe, successfully dodging any needles by getting behind the foe. Sadly, not all timing is perfect. If the needles had made their path, a few would sink into his shoulders, back and calves. The cuts would not be fatal, but blood would trickle from the amount of eight cuts.

His final movement went to turning around and facing his opponent. He waited to see the results of his actions.

Fire Style: Fire Bolt Technique
Rank: D
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Shoots a very small ball of fire, no larger than a foot in diameter, towards a target.
Special: Rat, Ram, Tiger, extension of one hand
Drawback: When the seals are over, the user extends their hands, shooting the ball of fire from their fingertips, which after repeated use (3 or more times), causes singeing which can slow down the speed of which a user can perform handseals or other finger movements.
Description: The user performs the handseals, converting chakra within the hands into heat energy. The hands are then pointed towards a target and a small bolt of fire, no larger than a foot in diameter, leaves the hand and flies rapidly towards the opponent.
Limit: Fire Release

[kkira]

[OOC: Damn! I can't believe I made that mistake!]

I missed two of the shuriken and they were lodged directly into my upper torso. I kept performing my jutsu as my lower left hand dug the shuriken out. However, blood was falling fast. My opponent then tried to counter attack me, however, my attack was a C-ranked, and I knew his was a D-Ranked. Although mine would power his up all that they'd do was negate each other, and only for that one foot where the ball of fire was. The rest of the needles were still coming. That was when my opponent dodged them once again.

I couldn't believe that my plan had been foiled because my opponent wanted to dance around like a bunny rabbit and dodge every attack I threw. I cursed, but I had to close up my wounds. As my opponent was behind me Venom shot a blast of webbing from her rear end, and I would shoot webbing into my top hands, both right and left. I'd then apply this webbing to my wounds, that way the bleeding would stop. The pain was immense, but I would live. While I used the webbing to stop the bleeding I also jumped off of Venom and turned to face my opponent. If my opponent were to run at me I planned on shooting a sticky thread directly at him once he came within 1 meter, so it would be almost impossible to dodge. If he didn't come that close I'd simply stand here and watch his next moves.

As the man and his spider ally seemed to flawlessly dodge the web, Jens prepared himself by reaching his hand into his butt bag, waiting to see what kind of item would be required, or if he should just fall back on a jutsu once more. The first thing he noted, was the disgusting process of a spider web shooting out of the spider's rear. Unable to perform shunshin anymore, he found it more than capable to leap in air, the tiny web easily soaring under his feet, not touching him in the littlest.

Eyes still locked on both foes, he saw a seizable opportunity. As the foe leaped in air off the spider, he found the moment he waited for. Grabbing a kunai, hand on the grip, he pulled it. Taking advantage of his enemy's in air situation, he threw the kunai, as it flew through air at a decent speed, aiming to hit the man, this time, in the heart. A long shot, Jens didn't expect this to work, and while throwing it in air, then landing on the ground three seconds after jumping. Vigilant to another attack from either opponent, he waited a counter-attack.

[kkira]

As I jumped into the air it would appear that Venom heard something, or probably more likely smelled it from her bloodlust. She shot her left front leg forward, stopping the kunai that had been thrown with her tough leg. It hit her and feel to the ground harmlessly. I then landed with ease and my opponent was waiting for me to attack, big mistake. He was ten meters away, but I ran forward to where he was only five. As I ran forward my spider friends had crawled all over my hands, at least 50 of them from the time of the entire fight. So, also as I ran forward I used my Web Puppet Fright jutsu to try to move 30 spiders on to my opponent.

30 spiders was a lot, and I expected at least one to land on him. I pulled my first two arms back and weaved threads at my opponent, and on each thread was a spider. If my opponent would move to try to dodge the attack I would move the threads, subsequently moving the spiders toward him, until finally I had landed some spiders on him. Once they were on my opponent I would direct each one to bite him at the same time. If my plan worked he would be dizzy from the posion and I could then shoot a webbing to catch him.

Venom meanwhile was running at him as well, just to the side to block off an escape that way.

1 Kunai in Lower Right Hand

[Hopalong]

Jens found himself in a need for some offensive power, so he was working quick. Due to the enemy's visible run, Jens had a good opportunity to distract him. The run left himself open momentarily, so the ninja reached into his butt bag, reaching for another fragmentation grenade. Pulling the trigger device, along with an overhand toss, the grenade went flying seven meters, in perfect range to kill the foe.

Of course this still left Jens at risk of nasty injuries. Moving in constant back steps, keeping alert for either the ninja's escape of the grenade, or even the giant spider making an approach. As long as he found no harm, he would continue his back steps until he was a safe 20 meters away from the spot the grenade landed. In the dash, he began weaving signs together, with a supplementary jutsu. "Hanabi no Shinka!" Holding his left hand out, his thumb, index and middle finger of the hand formed a tiny triangle, and with chakra focusing and heating up, six fiery petals formed, each six inches in length.

Now 20 meters away from the scene of the attack, he attempted another jutsu, only if finding himself safe for the moment. With two quick flicks of his index finger, he made two petals dissipate, the chakra reappearing in the form of two three centimeter orbs in his right palm. Finally, he had the chance to pull off a decent attack.

There was the question if the man wasn't distracted enough by the fragmentation grenade to hold off his ambush of spiders. If not, Jens would've saved himself from his dash away from the ninja, and his annoying spiders, ready to counter if they pursued him. Deadly, but annoying was a more positive way of referring to them in his mind.

Hanabi no Shinka (Fire Flower of Evolution)- 5 TP
Rank: “E” Rank
Skill: Ninjutsu, Offensive, Defensive, Pre-requisite
Effect: Creates a small flower made of flames with six petals that are each six inches long.
Special: “Hand Seals”- Rat, Dragon, Monkey, Rabbit, Tiger, extending the left hand away from the body, then using the thumb, index, and middle fingers in a triangle-like formation.
Drawback: This ability has no real value beyond using it within a combo attack.
Description: This jutsu creates a flower made entirely of flames. The user performs the required hand seals, channeling chakra through the left hand’s thumb, index, and middle fingers. The left hand is then moved away from the body, and the three mentioned fingers form a triangle shape, while the other two fingers close like the user would make a fist. The built chakra then move upwards and out of the hand, sparking to life and creating a flower with six petals that are six inches long each. If the triangle formation is ever broken, then the entire flame disappears. This ability can almost be treated like a fighting style stance. Each use of a Hanabi no Shinka will require a set amount of petals to be used; after the petals have all been used, the ability must be re-performed. Any time that a part of the Hanabi no Shinka has been destroyed, so long as the whole flower is not destroyed, it will slowly regenerate unless it has been used for an attack.
Limit: Requires the Fire Release

Hanabi no Shinka: Mi (Fire Flower of Evolution, Seed)- 15 TP, 1 E Rank Trainings
Rank: “D” Rank, 5x “E” Rank Potential Additional Training

Effect: Uses one of the petals of the Hanabi no Shinka to create a small orb of fire in the right hand.
Special: The forward movement of the index finger of the hand holding the Hanabi no Shinka.
Drawback: Uses one of the petals of the Hanabi no Shinka.
Description: The Orb ability of the Fire Flower of Evolution is a simple cantrip. Once the user has the Hanabi no Shinka in play, all the user must do is move the index finger of the left hand forward, and one of the petals of the flower will seemingly fade. The user will then open their right hand, revealing an orb of flame that bursts into life. The orb itself is small, with a diameter of about three inches. The orb itself hovers about two inches from the hand. The user at this point can either attack or continue a combo chain. Each time “E” rank training is performed, the shinobi then gains the ability to create one more orb. However, the ratio is always 1:1 for petals: orbs, so creating additional orbs will still require a petal.
Limit: Must know Hanabi no Shinka

It would appear that my opponent feared my even more and that he would throw a fragment grenade up into the air, trying to inevitably break through my jutsu that I had worked my way at him. After seeing this I did a number of things. First I called my spiders back to my hands, and at the same time I used sand from my gourd to wrap in front of me, and block me from the attacks that had just been thrown my way. The fragments would merely hit the sand, leaving large indentitions but not being able to break through to my body. After the explosion of the grenade I dropped the fragments and called my sand back into the gourd where it belonged.

Meanwhile Venom had been running with my opponent. Seeing him back away Venom would follow right after, still to his right side, so as to not allow herself to be caught up in the blast from the grenade. Venom then watched as my opponent formed so sort of jutsu. Venom was prepared, and immediately after seeing him form handsigns and forming flower petals Venom let out an enormous screech, trying to break up his concentration. She tried to keep this going for as long as it would take myself to get back to my opponent.

Venom's attack would most likely hit, and if it did it would give me a good amount of time to run at my opponent. However, I had to be cautious of his jutsu, so I did pull out two more meters of sand from my gourd and wrapped them around my upper left arm...just in case.

This man's insane ability to control sand was continuing it's annoyance. It would take some effort to work his way around this, though he thought of some interesting ideas. The one thing that seemed odd though was the odd screech that the spider released. The giant spider had decided to grab some attention to itself it seems. Or was this a battle tactic? If it was, he didn't get the purpose of it. The truth is he couldn't realize the full potential of this attack as while the spider had been stalking Jens as he fled from the grenade's explosion, this attack would do nothing to him while the animal remained 15 meters to his right side, bringing the sand genin outside of the jutsu's deafening range. Not seeing this for the power it actually contained, as his hearing remained fine, he ignored it.

Focusing rather on this menace the sand proved to be, he decided to test with what it could do, mainly in terms of reaction time. Jens began to grip his hand forward, stopping a fourth of the way. One of the two orbs began to crunch in as well, before quickly forming into the shape of needles, still carrying the intense heat. Six of them now floating in his hand, he aimed them to fire off at the enemy ninja's lower torso. If they hit, they'd pierce through his skin and slash his intestines. He didn't expect it to hit, but as soon as they fired, he began an arced dash, going to his left, putting more distance from the spider as he went.

While running, before the needles could reach the enemy, Jens flicked his left finger up into the air once again, letting a third petal disappear and replenishing his fired orb, and ready to attack again. He was in mid-dash, anticipating the foe's reaction and ready to attack as soon as he observed his reaction.

Hanabi no Shinka: Mi Shiruken (Fire Flower of Evolution, Seed Projectiles)- 10 TP
Rank: “D” Rank
Skill: Ninjutsu, Offensive
Effect: Shoots between four and six darts of flame from a Kyuutai orb.
Special: -----
Drawback: The projectiles shot forth are small, no larger than a senbon needle. Because of that, they do not do much damage and are easily counter able.
Description: The user performs the Kyuutai, creating an orb within their hand. The hand itself is then crunched in slightly, almost like closing a grip on the fire orb. The orb itself will split into between four and six needles, at the user’s choice, which then fire themselves towards the user’s directed location.
Limit: Must know Hanabi no Shinka: Mi

Hanabi no Shinka: Mi (Fire Flower of Evolution, Seed)- 15 TP, 1 E Rank Trainings
Rank: “D” Rank, 5x “E” Rank Potential Additional Training
Skill: Ninjutsu, Offensive
Effect: Uses one of the petals of the Hanabi no Shinka to create a small orb of fire in the right hand.
Special: The forward movement of the index finger of the hand holding the Hanabi no Shinka.
Drawback: Uses one of the petals of the Hanabi no Shinka.
Description: The Orb ability of the Fire Flower of Evolution is a simple cantrip. Once the user has the Hanabi no Shinka in play, all the user must do is move the index finger of the left hand forward, and one of the petals of the flower will seemingly fade. The user will then open their right hand, revealing an orb of flame that bursts into life. The orb itself is small, with a diameter of about three inches. The orb itself hovers about two inches from the hand. The user at this point can either attack or continue a combo chain. Each time “E” rank training is performed, the shinobi then gains the ability to create one more orb. However, the ratio is always 1:1 for petals: orbs, so creating additional orbs will still require a petal.
Limit: Must know Hanabi no Shinka
