Hitomi was filled with anxiety while she walked down to the compound’s training grounds. Her arms wrapped around her middle while she thought about the words of their father. “You are both Genin now. It is time for your assessment.” Her breathing was shallow and fast as her thoughts were filled with how much she was going to be hated by her brother, no matter the outcome. Wearing her black leggings and a blue tee shirt, she had pulled her hair up into a tight ponytail at the top of her head. Nervously, she had began biting her thumb nail while her eyes looked about. She hoped that she wouldn’t see Dante just yet. Not as she was. It would only be another reason for him to look at her as if she was a disgrace to him and and the clan. Within her side pouch, she had her full first aid kit, 4 kunai, 8 senbon, a smoke bomb and 10 Shuriken. Though she didn’t want to use any of it. She’d also be expected to use the jutsu that she had learned over all this time. She walked to the bench on the side of the arena and waited in silence with her arms around her still. How on earth was she going to fight against her brother?

DamienKiyoshi: DamienKiyoshi: Dante had been awake for a while now just sat on the edge of his bed, fully dressed without his shoes on. His perfectly black hair fell below the nape of his neck as he hunched forward some of it fell over his shoulders, -Today is the day.- He thought to himself in the silence of his own room -Today I get to prove It’s I who will become the leader of the Hyuga clan- He new the decision wasn’t to be made on this day, but this had to be done for some reason right? Why make them fight each other for nothing? Dante quickly stood from his bed, reaching for his ninja pouch off the desk which was parallel with bed, and attaching it to the belt on his lower back, perfectly in the middle as to make it easier for both hands to reach it. Inside said pouch where: 3 Kunai, 6 Shuriken, 10 Makibishi and two paper bombs. Quickly making his way out of his bedroom door towards the front of the compound he quickly placed his feet into the rubber open toed shoes before tapping them on the wood to make them fit as he always did. Keeping a steady pace he left the front door, leaving towards the training ground which the compound had, it’s where he'd spent countless hours he knew it quite well, his hair swung as he walked, approaching a bench where he saw his sibling sit, without stopping and walking past he muttered “come..” As he walked past her, heading towards the grassy area of the training field, he walked into the middle of the field which was surrounded by trees enclosing the area, he wondered how his father or whoever was watching would see it but he knew they were there. Turning to face his sibling if she followed him he’s nod at her as if to offer her the first move, quietly waiting for something to happen.

She sat up and looked to her older brother as he came into the training ground. Her heart jumped up into her throat hearing the one syllabled word and made her feel even worse already. However, like the dog, she stood and followed after him. Only this was not what she had hoped for. She wished to spend time with him, but what happened if she beat him? He’d only hate her more and it would be more distance between the two of them. But what would happen if he beat her? She would be seen as weak by not only her brother but also the whole clan. Her mind was stuck in it’s inner termoil. He nodded to her. That was her cue to move. She dashed along the ground from side then the next. Speeding towards him as she reached into her pouch to take from it 2 shuriken. Activating the Byakugan, the area around her eyes tightened and the vessels expanded causing her to see the channels of chakra that moved through his body. It was perhaps the easiest way for her to battle him. As she neared him, she threw the shuriken towards him aimed for him. One aimed for his hip, the other aimed for his knee.

DamienKiyoshi: He wouldn’t need his Byakugan yet as she activated hers, seeing her clearly reach into the pouched the same moment he did the same wrapping his fingers around a Kunai before pulling it from the pouch. Moving into a crouched stance his right leg slightly behind his left spread a little wider than his shoulders, being the kunai up he seen her release two shuriken towards him, quickly making a slashing motion towards them which would knock both of them off target missing him completely. If she kept running at him he’d step into her, pulling the hand with the Kunai back past his hips and intending to thrust it forward when she was in range aiming for the kunai to stab her, above the hip on the left side, with the thrust of his arm if she didn’t dodge or stop it the kunai blade would be buried deeply inside her at which point he’d quickly remove it, stepping back a little keeping his eyes scanning for anything she might do, leaving her dripping blood from the wound at least giving her a chance to patch herself up before attacking again.

Even though she still moved towards him, she saw the kunai that was pulled from his pouch and where he had placed it. Thinking she was battling someone else, the look of determination crossed her face while she focused on building chakra into the palms of her hands. Still she sped forward towards him and just before she would be within his arm’s reach, she jumped up and forced herself into an aeril front flip with only one rotation, then to land on the balls of her feet behind him in a slightly crouched position. As she spun, she’d aim to force her chakra filled palms into the center of his back while using the Gentle Fist technique.

 

DamienKiyoshi : Dante’s Byakugan activated as he seen her leap into the air which left his thrust missing, the veins around his eyes swelling and becoming defined like the pupil which couldn't be seen before in the middle of his eyes. Upon her landing he’d had already moved his head to give him full field of view, the blind spot which was above the third vertebrae of the spine wasn’t anywhere near her, his head tilted. He’d see the amount of Chakra gathered in her hand, he could only imagine what she was going to do with it, as she turned so did he, except his spin would be with him leaning forward using the momentum of the missed thrust of his arm to carry his body into a left turn spin, falling down on his right knee quickly spinning his left leg out in an attempt for it to swing across both of her calves tripping her. If his leg connected with her, with the speed at ti was going and his full bodyweight behind it, it would easily trip her, making her fall upon the grass they were stood on. Pressing up off his knee quickly in one fluent motion from the pin he’d be stood over her, he’d take the kunai in his hand and attempt something he’d only through over, but what better chance to try something. Opening the chakra point in his hand was an easy enough task for Dante, the quick bursts he used in gentle fists where nothing but keeping a constant flow of his chakra over his hand was new ground to him, letting his chakra quickly flow over his hand and kunai, it began to glow slightly blue(I*n his mind he was thinking that he’d easily be able to light the chakra with his fire nature, transforming his normal steel kunai into a engulfed blade of blades.) This wasn’t the case however, upon an attempt to ignite the chakra he’d move the hand down towards the sibling on the ground, attempting to stab her in the shoulder. But up on him attempting to ignite his entire hand would ingulf and explode, leaving slight burns all over his hands, if she didn’t she’d also have her clothes set alight as the explosion threw off a few sparks.

She felt him activate his Byakugan and knew that no movement of hers was going to go unnoticed by him. However, neither was his. Her speed was matched by his and she knew it. She’d seen him train and knew just how fast he was. However, even that close to him, there was no way that she was able to move from the leg sweep that had forced her back on to the grass below. She landed with a hard thud but even while she still landed on the ground, she still held the concentration of the chakra within her hands. She saw what he was doing with the chakra point in his hand opening. With speed, she’d thrust her palm into his chest trying to place a burst of chakra into him through palm bottom. However, even after she’d try and force her palm into his chest, she felt the heat as her shirt caught on fire and hold in the cry as the blade of his kunai found her shoulder. Her eyes looked up to him and she saw the burns on his hand. *No, Hitomi. Tend to him after.* Placing his personal care above her own.She had to remind herself that this was a spar that she had to complete. If she succeeded, he’d temporarily be paralysed. If not, she would have hit him hard enough in the chest to cause him to step back.

DamienKiyoshi: His Byakugan being active he’d be able to see the her hand aiming to land on his chest with the amount of chakra she had there he wouldn’t be able to take this hit lightly, but his path didn’t falter Carrying through with his attack, his kunai being pressed into her shoulder, once he felt a connection his reach being longer and hers he’d activate a Jutsu called Gentle Fist Art One Blow Body, every chakra point in his body would open at the same time releasing a burst from everywhere on his body, not only would this meet with her palm coming towards him in away to keep force with force he would also blow her against the ground more as if something heavy was upon her, she’d probably find it hard to breath if she couldn't find away to avoid being hit by the force from this distance, the kunai in her shoulder would either be pressed into her, pinning her down, or he’d release it letting go as he used the own force of his jutsu to jump back to safety, he’d be a little worn but fine depending on what happened.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14.666666666666666px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">She clenched her teeth as she saw the chakra points open and blow at her, taking with him the kunai that had pierced her flesh. Being pressed into the ground more, she struggled to take a breath. How would she be able to fight against her brother? Once the force of his body blow had released, she stood and looked to her shoulder. Her blood beginning to stain her blue tee shirt causing it to become dark blue from being wet and the crimson coloring itself. She never thought that he would actually hurt her. But then again, this was the game that the elders played. They had to see who was stronger. She walked over to the bench and took the first aid kit from her bag. She would need it after. Once more, she walked out to the field. It was time for her to use things that she knew he didn’t know. Her knowledge of the body. Overlaying the chakra system and the nervous system, she concentrated on her chakra to form water spindles. 8 of them formed around her and it was now that she had to use the knowledge that she knew he didn’t know. One by one.. She aimed the water needles. One to be aimed for the main nerve in the right shoulder. One to the major nerve in his left leg. She then let 4 fly towards him in various areas of muscle. One to the right pectoral, one to the left side abdomen, one to the left middle thigh and one to the right. The other two, she’d hold on to. If any of the ones aimed for the joints hit, he would feel the numbness as he’d lose the feeling in his limbs for a short amount of time. If any of the four hit, they would cause the soreness in the muscle, causing it to be tender to move and inhibit the speed that he had in that area.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14.666666666666666px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">DamienKiyoshi: Having pushed himself back, landing on his feet he allowed her time to patch herself up, at the very least he didn’t want to have to end her like that, after all the elders were watching and Dante was yet to show his true power. Using the time she took to walk to the bench and back Dante was pretty rested, the burns on his hands were minor and not really causing a problem for now, but maybe that was just the adrenalin pumping through his system. He didn’t know if it was thanks to the recent training he’s done lately but his Byakugan wasn’t taking that much outta him anymore, being able to keep it dawned for a longer amount of time, he saw his younger sibling walk back to the grassy area as he prepared for combat once more, reaching his good hand into the pouch on his lower back once more. Noticing 8 water like needles appear around Hitomi, he quickly chose his weapon, a kunai with a paper bomb attached to it. Quickly throwing it as the first four needles came towards him, bringing his hands together to quickly form the Snake seal detonating it perfectly as the four passed it, the shock of the small explosion hopefully turning the thin water needles back into water. While his hands were together he’s quickly form more seals -Tiger → Boar → Ox → Dog → Snake- As the remaining four needles came towards him, he activate the Body Replacement Jutsu, ‘causing a poof of smoke to cover the area was Dante was, Dante quickly replacing himself with a block of wood from the nearby forest. Leaving nothing to chance he quickly acted, having leapt into the air over the quickly falling log, as soon as his feet touched the floor a meter or so away from his sibling he’d quickly crouch in a stance, her being in arms reach when his happens if he didn’t move “Gentle Fist” His hands took a closed shape with only his index and middle finger extending, unleashing a flurry of flows towards his target in front of her, 16 blows in all, each blow aiming for a different chakra point in her upper body/torso, each time a blow would land he’d be able to force a little bit of his own chakra into her body, slowly blocking her chakra ways making it hard for her to summon or mold any chakra whatsoever. 6 of the 16 blows would need to land for her to feel that she couldn't form chakra anymore, and if they were all to miss or she moved away from him in time he’d take up a defensive stance crossing his forearms out in front of him preparing for anything.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14.666666666666666px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">She saw the smoke and readied herself.His movements seen still with her byakugan still activated. She had become effeceint at keeping her byakugan activated for long periods of time through her daily practice. With two more needles that she had not sent out yet, she had let them go. Knowing the move that he was about to touch her with just by the finger placement he was about to use, she made a quick seal and activated transformation jutsu. She had disappeared before him in a poof of smoke, only to run between his legs and behind him as a small field mouse. Even with the jutsu activated, the red spot in her shoulder still leaked with blood. Once she was far enough past him, she deactivated the transformation and appeared in a crouched position behind him. She stood and as she did, she reached in to her pouch and pulled a kunai. She then turned quickly and held the blade in a ready position before her with the blade across her forearm and her arm across her chest with her eyes looking to him with her breathing slightly heavy.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14.666666666666666px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">DamienKiyoshi: As she wove seals which he clearly seen, he knew he Jutsu and was well aware of what she was doing, but even if he wasn’t his Byakugan would have seen her move between his legs anyway. He reacted instantly, reaching back into his ninja pouch as he landed he wouldn’t even pay attention to the thing that she would have him believe was her quickly turning on the balls of his feet, running towards her, pulling three shuriken from his pouch, holding them between each finger as he made a fist to keep them held tightly, crossing his arm over his chest and them throwing it forward, using the momentum of the swing to throw the Shuriken towards her, all three aiming for her upper body about 4 inches apart from each other. If they hit her they’d stick in deeply to her flesh. At the same time he’d keep running, as the Shuriken left his fingers his hounded hand reached into the same pouch, pulling his last Kunai out, moving his hand holding it in a thrusting motion, he should be in front of her, and if she was busy defending from the shuriken she’d surely get stabbed in the gut with his kunai, if she was going to take the hit he’s quickly stop, thus ending the spar, if she somehow moved, he’d quickly throw the Kunai in the direction she moved.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14.666666666666666px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Seeing him come at her in the speed that he had, she felt her heart reach her throat. Her shoulder hurt and she was constantly on the defensive. Perhaps she /was/ the weak child that she was believed to be. Seeing the shuriken coming toward her her focus went to every opening in her body while she took into spinning like a top. Her hair flying around and wrapping around her body, she pushed steady amounts of chakra from all openings forming the rotating heaven. She heard the shuriken hit away from her and with her own kunai still in her hand, she came to a stop with her eyes looking toward him. If he had thrown the kunai at her anyway, even if she didn’t move, she’d move her own kunai just enough to knock it away. If he had not, she would still look towards him as she’d throw her own kunai into the dirt. “No more,” she said as she refused to move. What would come next, was up to her brother.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14.666666666666666px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">DamienKiyoshi : Dante watched her start to rotate, seeing everything through his eyes, seeing the amount of chakra released to creature such a jutsu, he had no clue she knew such a thing, he was quite shocked although he wouldn’t show it. As she stopped and looked him in the eye, watching her weapon fall to the floor he came to a halt before her as she said no more, a small grin would come across his face, the fact of the matter is his sister was much more of a challenge than he expected, the facial feature would last a mere second before returning to his normal emotionless expression or lack thereof. Spinning the Kunai in his hand between his fingers before quickly pocketing he, he turned away from his sibling his hair being threw into the air slightly as he turned and mutted under his breath, “You did good, you’re a lot stronger than I though. Make sure you have those wounds tended to.” Without saying another word he took off in a slow pace back towards the compound where he’d attend to his hand.

<span style="font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:400;white-space:pre-wrap;">Hitomi released the byakugan and looked to him. She saw the slight smirk but didn’t know if it was because he found her weak or not. However, the fact was that he listened to her. Seeing him turn from her, she bent over and picked up the kunai that she had thrown onto the ground. Her eyes then went wide and a smile crossed her face. She turned quickly to look towards the back of her brother hearing his words. Not knowing what to say, she only looked to him with a slow smile creeping over her face. For the first time in her life that she could remember, she did well by him. It didn’t matter what her father said or the lecture she would get from her mother for not being more careful. From her brother’s lips, he said that she had done well. She walked over to the bench and picked up her med kit. Opening it up, she took out the alcohol pads and washed the area before she then took some bandages and tape to her shoulder to keep it clean until it healed.
