He watched as she emulated him clearly amused by the actions. It would do her no good and she had to have known that. The elements on different ends of a scale with one end always teetering up and above the other. He knew this and almost relished in the fact for he was bound to be underestimated for that. Even if that did come with its own bunch of huge hurdles for him to overcome.

At the time of her light show he was left hanging in the wind. He had no more time to pick through stones or chunks of dirt anymore and had to act. The shock crawling its way across the ground met him head on and there was nothing much he could do to stop it. His body convulsed involuntarily with the bit of electricity climbing its way through his nerves. Nothing unbearable but enough to momentarily halt him. The clump of dirt in his hand was even reduced to powder in his grasp.

With an effort, he had just enough physical capacity to take a quick leap back just outside the current bounds of her technique. His body once more dropped into the seated crouch and his weight rocking on his bare feet. The scurrying hands coming together dust and all. Each movement was carefully calculated as he ran through each sign individually and very intentionally. Just as purposefully his arms then lowered to the ground at his feet and his chakra began to leak outward.
