 Heki : “He’s fast.” Thought Akira as Takuza re-appeared behind his clones. The Clones, however, could see the ripples of water expand over its surface even if they couldn’t keep up with the Jounin’s movement. That, and, the reflection that suddenly showed doom incarnate behind them. Without having to make a handseal, both clones sank down halfway into the water and turned to the opponent while the mighty kick passed overhead. Both of them then formed a quick three handseals before releasing a small, 1ft wide, torrent of water from both of their mouths; aiming to blast into Takuza with a good deal of concussive force even though the torrents were weaker than the originals, after all these clones only had power equal to 1/10th of their maker. Akira, meanwhile, had begun retreating back to Yasu and would move to stand in front of her if she was down on the ground or otherwise hurt, if not then beside her, while his serious composure took over completely. “We can’t rush in blindly. He’s too fast. Do you have any ideas?” The white haired boy then took a smoke tag from his pouch and threw it down on the ground to hide them from sight and whispered to Yasu. “Maybe this will buy us some time.” While waiting to see if she had any plans. Meanwhile, he made sure to not sit still and cupped his hands to form a puddle of water in them before turning that into a round shield of water that acted like a solid; The Water Weapon Technique. He’d make sure to stand on guard and keep listening, ready to react as fast as his given speed allowed him.



Vain : Yasu’s brows furrowed as her Sensei performed a body flicker and soon the boy known as Akira was at her side. He spoke to her, which caused her onyx eyes to shift, staring at him while in a combat stance. Once the smoke went off, she’d finally say something worthwhile. “We need to do a stealth attack. He is expecting us from all angles, therefor we need to throw that off. These smoke bombs will help out quite a bit. If we get rid of his sight and you attack from the front, and I from above or behind we might be able to get a hit on him.” She paused, her hands grabbing a few smoke bombs from her pockets. “I need you to be the distraction. Once the smoke goes off attack. I suggest you use a another set of clones before this smoke clears and head into the woods for cover, make your way behind him as your clones keep him busy. Then I will drop a few smoke bombs for cover, then we both attack at once. You understand?” she questioned, staring at him with a serious expression. Once the boy responded she lingered in the smoke, awaiting him to send his clones after their sensei, once that happened she’d run into the trees to the left, working her way high up in a tree. She sat on the branch, her onyx eyes watching the scene under her, waiting for her sensei to be preoccupied. Then she would launch into action.



DamienKiyoshi : Jumping from branch to branch somewhere in the forest behind the training ground Dante would be making his way back, how could he leave for something so stupid? This wasn’t like him but he did it anyway so there was no going back now, Dante wouldn’t say where he’d been but instead continue to fasten his kilt up like he’d just been to the bathroom. In the smoke Dante’s whispered, “I can probably buy you a couple of seconds myself.” And then with that he sprinted from the shroud towards the jounin in a straight line, weaving some seals as he ran. Ram → Snake → Tiger He knew this wouldn’t be enough to throw the team leader off the real one as two more of Dante appeared, one to the left and open to the right of him following his exact movements, suddening the three clones started moving formation and weaving between each other in an juggle the real one in with the fakes. Dante would be the one on the far left as the three of them approached, dante would attempt a simple palm thrust to the gut of the jounin, plain and simple, although all three would attack at the same time.



Expo: Takuza was calm as the kick had missed entirely, he sighed in response to it as he didn’t really care much for water clones, he easily responded with pushing chakra into his calve section and leaping into the sky at a high speed quickly pulling 2 kunai’s attached with explosive tags and easily launched them and responded to the torrent with them going off the moment they made contact with each other. The explosion would disrupt the attack from actually reaching him as he quickly used this little time he had to push his body weight towards the left easily reaching out of range for the torrent to hit him. Takuza then landed on the water and hoped once more to land on the surface perfectly. Takuza was well aware he hadn’t dispose of the clones as he kept it in mind the entire time. Then within seconds he noticed Dante running towards him from the smoke in which now encased Yasu and Akira. This was odd, but in reality Takuza was happy that it seemed like the Genins were using their heads instead of their power. Takuza quickly noted that Dante weaved three simple hand seals which lead to him summoning two clones beside him. Takuza kept his calm and looked towards the ground as he was well familiar with the cloning jutsu after all he learned it to pass the academy. Takuza basically did this to configure exactly which was the real Dante as only he would possess a real shadow out of his clones. Quickly noticing this, Takuza made himself the fool and acted like he didn’t know which one was the real one. The moment Dante closed in, he acted in seconds with a simple retracting of his right leg and extended it forward to land on Dante’s stomach easily kicking the wind out of him as Takuza had held back a considerable amount. This would result in him flying back a few feet in pain and landing on the ground. Takuza would then remain standing without moving from his position as he was curious to see what Akira and Yasu had in mind. If his kick was successful on Dante, it would send him back a few feet this kick easily knocking a good amount of air from his lungs and possibly stunning him due to the impact it would make. This would happen in mere seconds as he would respond the moment he got close to him, aiming to hit the real one as he knew the other clones were mere fakes.

Heki <span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"">: Two clones dashed out of the smoke, informed of Akira’s plan beforehand when he had replied to Yasu and made the clones “Very well, I’ll wait for you before I attack. Meanwhile I’ll use the clones to set up a square formation.” The clones nodded, having noted the information, and that brings us back to current time where the two clones were seen out in the open, all of them holding onto a bo-staff made of water; reflecting the sun in a most beautiful way, while the weapons acted as solid and dealt concussive damage like a wooden bo-staff would. Meanwhile the other two clones, that previously used hiding in water, got back out of the surface, not holding a weapon or anything, and joined the other two, learning of the formation plan through some quick hand gestures, as all four clones moved to surround Takuza in a square-formation; 3 yards between each clone. Dante had provided the perfect distraction while the clones set up to surround them. Thankfully Dante had then taken the Jounin’s kick, one of the water clones moved behind the Hyuga to take kinetic energy traveling through Dante; causing the clone to explode but at least the Hyuga wouldn’t be sent flying back any further. The smoke that had hidden Akira and Yasuo had now completely dissipated showing Akira to be gone as well. He had walked directly behind one of his bo-staff wielding clones that ran out of the smoke, however, when the clone started running over the water Akira instead let himself sink down below the surface immediately; hopefully unnoticed by the Jounin. Yasu, however, would’ve been able to see the real Akira run behind his clone thus knowing the slight change of plans that occurred when Akira had realized that the Jounin was standing on water. Akira’s body quickly descended and his before long feet touched ground upon the bottom of the stream, 3 yards below the surface, as he held his breath and placed his feet in a steady stance between two large rocks. He then began weaving handseals while waiting for things to turn dark above the surface which would happen when Yasu executed her part of the plan and dropped the three smoke bombs. Meanwhile, after surrounding the Jounin, all four of the clones went on the offensive, two of them twirling their bo staff and aiming for a series of burst-strikes that came at Takuza’s legs and torso area, while the remaining unarmed clone (or clones if Dante wasn’t caught by one) made ready to rush at the Jounin if he evaded the earlier attempts; aiming a simple roundhouse kick at the Uchiha’s head.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:#7DD2D5">Vain <span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"">: Yasu clenched the smoke bombs as she jumped from her tree. The small child was rather silent, as she decended above Takuza. As the decent came she’d whip the smoke bombs at her Sensei’s feet, allowing them to scatter around him and explode upon contact with the ground. Since there had been three in her hand, they would produce a large quantity of smoke. The smoke itself was rather dense, making it very difficult to see through. As Yasu met the smoke, she’d move the weight in her body and make it so that she’d flip to gain speed. As she came down from above him, her leg was out stretched above her sensei. Her leg was stretched out so that her calf would strike him in the head. Which do to her weight would cause him to crumble to the floor. If her sensei gripped her leg, she’d grip his arm and pull straight up, her other leg bent. The girl managed to concentrate chakra to the soles of her feet, and would attempt to stomp him in the face. The small child hoped her assault would work, if not she’d come up with a new plan and keep working through them until one worked. If something happened, that didn’t allow her plan to go through, she hoped that one of her team mates would follow up with a counter of some sort. Either way Yasu strived to achieve this.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"">

The force of the kick would still send the Hyuga back, his feet dragging around the ground, his legs about to buckle which would've made him fall over if not for the clone which appeared behind him to take the shock and leave Dante standing. Upon the smoke bombs sitting the floor and the area becoming nothing but a cloud of thick smoke, Dante’s eyes instantly started to become defined, the veins around his eyes swelling, and his pupil becoming visible, he was now able to see in a 360 degree vision around himself, apart from a small blind spot at the back of his neck. He’s see everything, the aerial attack from the girl, and akira down in the water below the team leader. Dante kept back for a few moments, reading to relay information to his other team members if the team leader would escape and attempt to hide himself within the smoke, his vision concentrating on the jounin, not letting him out of his sight for a single second.

<p class="MsoNormal">Expo: Takuza would remain still over the water as he watched everything unfold, the kick performed would send the Dante flying as he would be caught by a water clone. Takuza’s eyes acted quickly and shifted to all the other clones around him. As he was aware he didn’t remove the other 2 clones from earlier. Then he quickly noted Yasu leaping from the sky his eyes widening as they seemed to be working together. He was actually extremely impressed they made actually made all these plans in such little time. Sadly Takuza was always a step ahead until smoke bombs covered his perimeter. He had to quickly react as he leaped into the sky within seconds, he would be heading towards Yasu exactly tilting his head towards the right side as her leg would make contact with his shoulder. This was actually impressive as Takuza didn’t expect it at all. He quickly reacted within seconds of being struck, his hands shot forward, his left hand attempting to grab her left leg, as for her right leg it would be vice gripped by Takuza’s right hand. Then he attempt to spin and throw her directly at Dante. If successful she would be sent flying and would land on him possibly causing Dante to feel the force of his throw possibly causing him to skid over the ground or fall on to it. As for Akira’s last unarmed clone, Takuza would then be struck by the kick being forceful but not enough to knock him unconscious. His face would scrunch up towards the side as he would easily be kicked into the direction the kick was indicated, his body would perform an easy back flip and land on the opposite side of the training field across from here Dante would be, the body of water separating them. He then placed his hand over his face as he was truly impressed about what had happened and the team working together. He then said “You guys have passed the test, this is enough for me to see you guys are willing to learn how to work as a team.” He sighed before spitting some blood out of his mouth as he kept his calm. He then waited for everyone to round up and hear him say his words as he basically complimented them on their team work.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:#F8CD46">Heki <span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"">: A 5ft wide wave of water shot out from the streams surface but didn’t rise much higher than a few yards as it aimed to catch the falling figure of Yasu, and then stopped from growing so as to not hit her with any concussive force but instead gradually slow her fall down while pushing her away from flying at Dante; causing her to most likely land a few yards beside the Hyuga instead. How did he do it? When Takuza had jumped up earlier both of his clones on the water, holding a bo-staff, continued spinning their weapons around at high speeds to start pushing the smoke away at the center, clearing it up enough for Akira to see Yasu’s smaller shape being thrown by Takuza, and with his water jutsu already prepared he could then act swiftly. Akira then pushed himself off the ground and swap up towards the surface, taking a deep breath, before climbing out and onto the shore but due to being so tired, and completely wet, his hands slipped. Reaching for grass it merely tore apart as the Genin was seconds from sliding back down into the water with an annoyed frown. After about five more seconds, unless helped, he tried again and forced himself through the tiredness before walking over to the other Genin just in time to hear Takuza’s compliments. After everything that had happened today the stern young boy could truly say that this was a team in which he would progress far more than he could alone.

Slowly, she stood up and allowed a light smile to form as she pulled her hood up to hide her face. The child took slow steps to join her Sensei and the other boy known as Akira. As she met Akira’s side she’d glace at him, the sun allowing him to see her face for a brief moment. He’d see the smile on her face, and with a gentle tone she’d speak. “Thank you for trusting me. She murmured, hoping that he wouldn’t make a big deal out of it. The onyx eyes shifted away from Akira and looked up to her sensei, a relaxed expression on her face. Her head turned, looking at Dante as she awaited him to join them. Yasu for once was content. She felt good about how they worked together, and for once…she actually enjoyed someone else’s company…Though she’d never admit to that. Yasu was proud her idea worked, but the sound of a rumbling from her stomach caused her head to tilt downwards. The silver haired child raised an eyebrow as she offered a short sigh. Yasu assumed that the apple would be enough to keep her full, alas it had not.

The veins around his eyes would simmer down to being smooth with his skin once more, the pupil in the middle of his eyes seemingly disappearing from them. Awaiting instructions he heard the grumble from the woman's stomach, looking at her quickly before looking back towards the team leader, he wasn’t happy with team work but it seemed to pay off in this case, maybe it was worth giving the other two people here a chase instead of shooting them down straight away, after all they seemed to be doing fine when he left.
