Capture the Flag:Forest of Death! (Sento, Slade, Haruko, Shikei)

Deap in the Forest of Death. Both teams start at the opposite end of the Forest
the trainer states that *genin are not meant to train in this forest but chosen from all the best genin we have hand pick yous lot to train here*

MISSION INSTRUCTOR: your goal is to capture the flag before the other team which is located in the heart of the forest. there will be no map provided to strain the training to its limits. you have also shown exceptional abilities in Ninjutsu but a ninja is more than just his fancy techniques.

in the forest the enemy is not the other team but the creatures that lurk in the forest and the 3day time limit both team have to bring back the flag.

i advice you to take care of any wounds that occur in the forest.

and just to let all of yous know jounin will be on constant watch on how you perform. there is more to completing a mission. doing it effectivly with little casualties is important.

Nature is your friend! GOOD LUCK

REMEMBER CAPTURE THEN ESCORT.

o and there is ONLY ONE FLAG!

after no futher adue both teams set out in the forest. both team noticed how they began there Mission at night time making it harder to se there surronding.

*so Slade(holding his kunai in his hand) what do you want to do first Capture the flag or set traps at the exit to slow them down on the escort, your choice*

Harulo was cautious of the,, and she knew they needed a plan.
"So, Shekei," She said. "Have any plans up your sleeve?"

Shikei was imagining floating in the sky asif he was a cloud...That was a great way to live, be free in the sky, with not a care in the world...
"H...e ..ny plans up your sleeve?"

"Huh what?"
Shikei rubbed his eyes and looked at Haruko, he thought for a minute then realised.
"Oh yeah, capture the flag right?"
He felt like saying he would give up but obviously he couldnt let down Haruko, even if it is a mission, but it would count towards his grades anyway.

He got up and yawned, and then looked aorund at the area.
"Grass, trees, beasts...more trees...Hah, a great place for me!"
Shikei beckoned Haruko into the woods and thought of the instructions for a bit.
"Ok ive got it all thought out in my head, we will split up, but not to far, so then if one of us gets in trouble ill or u can help. Ive got my Jutsu to keep us safe, and if we see the enemy with the flag, ill nail em.!"

Meanwhile Sento was Jumping of trees and planting trip wires with paperbomb tags attached to it he marked on the trees where he had been just incase he returned and make sure he left no footprints anywhere. he then killed a squirrel close by and covered a kunai in the blood and stuck the kunai in the tree

"that should give them hope"

and then disposed of the squirrel. in the distance he could make out a figure but wasnt to sure. he then through a well aimed shuriken from his holster at the target and in the distance there was a clang* echo and a spark from far.

"hmm enemy" Sento whispered to himself

Haruko was scanning the forest for the flag, and enemies, when she saw something moving. She rubbed her eyes, and she saw it again, out of the corner of her eye. She ran towards the object. She saw Slade, and she threw some ice needles she prepared earlier at him, and she yelled
"Shikei, I found Slade with the flag!"

OOC: You found the flag abit to quick lol.

Shikei heard Haruko's voice, but didnt bother to come over, instead he sent a clone, not a solid Shikei, overto her, to tell her his plan, and act as if he was the real Shikei. He distantly saw Slade with the flag and had a great idea to get it.

He could feel someone else lurking near, so decided to stay in higher grounds, and looked down at Slade. It wasnt time to do anything yet, lets see what Haruko does first.

OOC: BLT was the one who found it too quick, I'm just preventing him from getting it so fast.

After hearing the enemy. Sento took a second to think. then he ran towards the scene. as he got close he saw a drop sparkle on the floor which he noticed was a trip wire, instancly summoning his chakra he. used Hell Reaping Jutsu and his Hellreaver broke out on from the floor and cut the trip wires line. shuriken flew at the hellreaver but had not effect.

Sento then jumped down towards his weapon and in mid air summoned the weapon to float towards his hand. before frontflippn towards the floor. but looking to his left he could see the Shikei(clone version) running towards the seen.

he decided to follow Shikei to lead him to Slade. because He realised only Shikei would know where Slade and Haruko was. he clinched his weapon and steathly followed

Slade im on my way. he whispered to himself

and then marked the tree on the left with a shuriken he threw at it

Haruko grabbed 2 of them before they hit her face, one hit her cheek however.
"Ow," She said, pulling the needle out. She then put them away, and she ran after Slade, and tried to kick his face.

Shikei had a great plan up his sleeve, if he had one that is (sleeve) but his clone was doing all the work. He sat high up and saw Haruko was hit by her own needles. This wasnt any normal enemy they were up against.
"Ok, i have a good plan"
He ran to Haruko, this time his real one, and took the needles quickly, he then ran round to try catch around to Slade. This wasnt going to be an easy task, but if it worked, it work possibly get him the flag, for then.

"Ok Haruko, Run after him, i have a good plan!"

Knowing about Shikei and his thinking Sento was more of a Improvised fighter knowing that it requires more skill to think of a plan and do it instantanously. without hesistating Sento used Speed demon Jutsu and Vanished to a different realm, the Underworld! in the underworld it was indentical to the real but could not see skin and muslce ut only the souls of the dead and alive.

Sento postioned himself with amazing speed and with the power of speed demon justsu kick Shikei back and took Slade in the underworld realm with him. Shikei and Haruko was puzzled not being able to see both Sento and Slade.

meanwhile the effects of Sento's Jutsu vanished and Sento and Slade where Visible on the top of tree behind it staring down at there enemy look at the trying to find them. in the distance light was appearing


"Slade, the light. that means shadow, you wanna take em out before the lights casts a shadow or head back"

Haruko ran after the clones, not suspecting a thing. She then got out her Ice Rapier, and she ran at the clones, swinging, and she threw ice needles.

Shikei saw Sento run with Slade, but this time he thought for sure it was the real slade because it was simple, they were team mates so they would run with eachother. Wow, that was easy to see, i have a good idea. Shikei sat on a branch and thought for about 3 seconds, he ran after Haruko and caught up,
"Ok Haruko, that guy Sento can go into the ground, perfect to catch him with my shadows when the light comes out. It almost time anyway. You make a clone and so will i, and make them both run at Sento and Slade. Meanwhile, we will be going opposite ways around to catch them, so they wont uspect that the ones behind them arent the real us. Light will dawn upon us soon, so if Sento tries to go into the ground, ill bag him with my shadow possession, nether the less, if that doesnt work, create a small ice wall to transfer the light into their eyes to blind them temporarily, and then that will create a shadow, enough for me to catch them, force them to hand the flag over, and then ill run the opposite way, in which they will alo run due to the possesion, you then will run to the finish and hand the flag in. If this doesnt work, i have another 100 tactics we could try, but we have to stop them from getting to their place first. I dont even know how they got to the flag quick anyway, its quite far from the start. Anyway, lets get on with it!"

Shikei created a clone, and beckoned Haruko to also make one, he started top run around to avoid suspicion.
"Ok Haruko, all plans are go!"

Sento seed Shikei look up at him and throughs a barrage of shuriked at him giving enough time to Slade to run away. he also realised they were getting close to there set traps.

but what Shikei diddnt no was when Sento took Slade away in the underworld he told Slade he has marked tries which identify where the traps where. Making a clone sentos clone hanged upside down on a tree and took out a kunai waiting for the enemy to arive.

While Slade was running with the flag. Sento prepare to slow down any incoming targets.

there to scared to attack because of Slades Bloodline

with a smirk on his face sento through more shurriken and Shikei and watched him dodge it and return to hiding. wondering where Haruko was Sento kept his guard behind him by keeping another clone above the tree look back. while the real Sento was running behind Slade

Haruko ran with Shikei, seeing how close they were to the finish line. She then used her Rain Cloud jutsu, and turned the rain drops into Ice needles,, but she first made a layer of ice to protect Shikei and herself. That slowed them down enough so she could catch up to the smiling.

Shikei knew it was now or never, and threw a couple of shurieken at Sento. He had the background of what their plans were, since Slade had the flag, Sento would have to try and protect him in any way he could, just to stop them. He made another clone and him and the fake Shikei were running at Sento. Just to avoid suspicion, it was like Shikei ran into a tree, but he created a clone just before he came to a standstill, acting like it was a clone all along, and it wen through the tree. He jumped up high quickly, and ran over the top of sento, who was now obviously going to think of attacking not the Shikei who ran through the tree, but the other clone. Now it was time for him to catch up to Slade, and get that flag!

Sento ran towards the Shikei going through the tree and kicked him straight in the back the clone vanished and sento realised it was a. Thinking on his toes Sento chased the other Shikei and was falling behind because of his wepon on his back. Sento then through the giant Hellreaver at Shikei and the hellreaver landed in front of him making Shikei come to a hault Turn a round a fight you have nowhere to run im faster than you and you know it.
Slade keep your eyes open Haruko is still on your heels! Sento yelled

Sento created two clones and attached Paper bombs to them. he then stuffed Marbles in there ninja pouched. if you try and attack them your death is certain. your smart but my stlye of thinking is more creative. No MORE TALKING FIGHT. sento sent his two shurikens to attack

but meanwhiles Slade was still escaping

OOC: One of you better make a move, I have had the flag all this time because you guys were taking too long to catch up and not many attempts to get the flag off me in a smart way that would make him drop it. Might be too late now, lets see what happens, my next post will most likely be me getting to it unless something is able to realistically catch me out.

Haruko saw how close he was, so she turned sme of the ice needles that were still in front of him into a Ice wall, trying to blind him to slow him down, and she threw more ice needles at him, in a effort to slow him down enough so she could catch up.

Shikei had had enough of this. Ah, i might aswell give up, this is a drag anyway, i wasnt even bothering in the first place, oh well, i might aswell have a go then. Shikei looked at Sento confronting the Fake Shikei and then gathered alot of chakra to his feet. He stopped for a bit on the spot and breathed in and out, circulating chakra throughout his body.
"NOW!"
Shikei leaped forward at great speed, and this time, he was catching up to Slade fast. When Haruko made the ice wall, he was nearby at the time, and had a good plan. He threw two Kunai hard and fast at the wall, and then it smashed, even though the power and speed of the Kunai was cut down. The broken ice surrounded the area where Slade was in at the time, and he should have been stopped by them, from getting hurt. Shikei carried on, so that he wouldnt take any chances and then grabbed an ice shard. It cut his hand abit and blood dripped down, but he ignored this pain. He threw this shard at Slade, hoping to hit him, but carried on any way. As he ran from tree to tree, he used his Kunai to cut them, and even though they didnt 'fall off' there was enough damage done to when someone leaped onto the branches, they wouldl and cause the jumper to fall along with them. He jumped even further and hid in the shadows, and created his shadow possession jutsu along some more branches. So he had to get past the ice sharps and the one he threw, the broken branches, and also the shadow possession Jutsu. If he did that, it would be him vs slade, unless Haruko caught up. Sento would be quite far of now, even if he was running this way, he wouldnt get here in time.
