READ AND LISTEN

For Guren, who had proved himself long ago he mustn't have felt the need to prove himself in the forest. And for the most part, he was right, he was a decorated veteran of the Uchiha Clan, no one was going to question his worth as a Lord, but for the others, those who had achieved only a few great things or were not even considered adults, the journey into the forest was critical, what they did within there however ... was up to them. The Elder male approached Guren, standing tall with his hands behind his back, his name was Kataro Uchiha, much like Guren he was a well-respected warrior, but he was old now, despite looking his late 50s the man was well into his 70s or 80s, sometimes the history books lied. "It's a shame innit? I remember this forest being something of grandeur. Let me let you in on a little secret ... We don't know what they'll encounter in there" Kataro would chuckle and walk back over to the other Elder's to join in their conversation.

Within the forest, everyone seemed to activate their Sharingan which, for the most part, was a smart move. Each of the contenders would start to spread out, for who would want to be near the other when they grabbed their glory? The other five would dash away, out of sight, leaving Deucalion and Yahiko in the dust. The thing that they all noticed was that the forest was full of large chakra signatures, but they weren't human, no they were wild beasts. The creatures, whatever they were, were staying away from Deucalion and Yahiko while they were still on the borders of the forest, it would be up to them to decide if they wanted to back away or move in deeper.

The grass within the forest was waist high, the trees so high that one had to crane their neck to see the top, each tree with a trunk of at least 10 meters in diameter. Birds sang their cacophonies, small critters ran up and down the trees around them. Due to the canopy above them as they go about 20 meters into the forest the light would seem to cease, they would feel as if it were nighttime, occasionally light managed to creep through the canopy but was quickly snuffed out. With their Sharingan, they would be able to see the long patches of grass moving as if something stalked through them, but not just one something, the deeper they went the more eyes they would feel on them. Somewhere out in the distance, they could hear the sounds of fighting, they may even hear the cries of "FIREBALL JUTSU!" followed by the screams of agony as if someone was being torn to shreds. And then silence ... the sounds of the forest soon drifted back into existence as if nothing had happened. That was the way of nature, within this forest you would be humbled because ultimately, you meant nothing.

7 had entered the forest but now only 6 remained. How would Deucalion and Yahiko act?
