Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sakeme nodded in respons and turned just in time to feel a light gust of wind. Good riddance... She almost smiled... but the kid started crying again. "Dont cry... please... there are plenty of Akerus here... I'm sure you'll find another... but I'd advise that you didn't..."

There it was, Iwagakure, just off in the distance. It glistened under the scorching sun but then again those could have just been waves of heat. As the trio continued on to the village Wrath stopped them at the entrance, "Alright. From here the two of you are on your own. I've have important business that needs attending. So stay together and back each other up no matter what." Wrath ordered. "And work on your taijutsu Elruda." Wrath quickly added before he left the two on their own for a while.

(enter Iwa village)

Elruda looked truly sorry to see Wrath go. But why were they here then...? If...they followed all the way here just to tag along? Her eyes saddened for a moment before...she realized Sakeme was speaking to her. "Y-yeah! I'm not hungry, though... Exploring sounds fun!" A soft smile curved her lips. This was her first time in Iwa. After all, she had only seen Konoha and Ame so far. And, she did not know Ame so well yet. She would make sure to treasure the brief time of visit here. And besides...it'll be interesting to explore a village without trees.

((exit to Village))

Smoke would begin to roll outwards from from the location of where the stone clone took a hold of the larger man, but intrestingly enough a crazed laugh would begin to cackle out wards from the billowing smoke and crater from the explosion. "Gyahahahah now this will be fun somebody fianly worth the kill!" The smoke would fianly begin to fade the large man was standing there weilding and holding a massive kubakiri houcho on his shoulder as if it was a light weapon, a crazed look on his face shown he enjoyed this thrill.

Despite getting away from the clone's grasp he didnt get far away enough from it to escape its blast and it had caused tremendous damage to to him. "Taraku....tch ...we must not take this one lightly...with that single move he has almost rendered me out of this fight..." The man was wearing traditonial samurai yukata, he had a katana seathed at his left side and a straw had tipped some what low he also seemed to be a man wich oroginated in the samurai lands much like giglamesh. Yet from gigs counter to there first attack he had alreayd damaged him greatly and Osorugi had no choice but to go in to a defensive stance.

((defensive stance
+20 to Db, down to 1 attack and +0 to attack melee))

The man would snarl a crazed smile. "Like hell im going to enjoy this one!" Despite being so large bigger than giglamesh and weilding a massive blade he was actualy quite fast and would rush at giglamesh at a high rate of speed. wasteing no time he would lash his massive blade straight down with a verticly slash, and hit or miss it would colide with the ground, from that he would spinclockwise comeing back around with the massive blade horozontily to his right, up and over down agin diaognialy to the left this man was obvisouly out for blood.

26-40 x2 damage to giglamesh

Osorugi would approach taraku's side keeping his right hand on his katana tsuka inside its seath, and he would talk to taraku but keep his eye's on giglamesh. "I tried to warn you......we should not under estimate this man he seems to be a samurai much like my.."

"Gyahahha I LOVE IT!!! I havent had blood taste this good in such a lo ng time im going to enjoy every drop!" Despite his massive injuries it would seem as if he didnt feel pain and like giglamesh was also in a blood lust state.

There was not geeting to him when he was like this and due to previous injuries he recived he was pretty badly injured, so best he would be able to do was attack supporting taraku, while still trying to remain on the defensive.

Like a mad man taraku would agin rush swinging his massive blade with his right arm as if it was a toy, he didnt use both hands as he didnt need them, as well as he had manytendins cut from the downward stab he recived from giglamesh, wich he was also hell bent on returning. alsmot random he would slash foru times at giglamesh stringin each slash witha motion to the last slash, while it seemed random he had great skill with this massive blade.

((35+7=42 miss
30+6=36 miss
25+7=32 miss
20+14=34 miss))

Mid way of taraku's slash stomr ororugi would approach and attempt a single attack in the blind spot of taraku's wide spread attack's. he would get very close and with a single extrmely fast motion he would draw slashing his blade at giglamesh's torso, then he would proceed directly past and continue to not be in the way of taraku's following attacks makeing sure to stay on the defensive.

((defensive stance +20
59-20 for defense+2=41 miss))

Even in giglamesh maddend like state the man large slow swings were extremly easily read and evaded, and as if purposly to piss him off, giglamesh would merly side step a single time barely makeing his blade swings miss staring him down with his single eye seemingly glowing red and his irisis glowing a beautiful blue, form a distance his eye would glow a malicious purple. (Like this.....but no pink eye) As he moved the mysterious effect of his getsuei odori would become apparent, as he moved there seemed to be multiples of himself each moving exaclty same as the last only a second later than last. with that only one thing reamined on him, that hellishly crazed grin, his pointed canines seemed extended like fangs of a beast crazed with the blood of the kill. this wassnet the giglamehs most had known he had lost far to much recently had and under gone a horrible reggression to something resembeling his darker days of life.

Giglamesh was simply laying with the large man, as the litteler samurai attack his attack was incrediblely fast, and since he attacked from out of the larges mans blind spot he barley saw him in time and brung his left blade up barely in time to defend his lightning fast unseathing slash. As there blades struck and slid across one another feirce sparks flew out both ways away from the striking points, yet giglamesh eye only seemed to widen even further with anticipation. Then agin he would easily avoid the large man swings he seemed trained, yet it would look at if it was self taught and one can go as far as ones minds allows them if not taught by some with higher skill. So he would play to this mans insanity with that of his own, on the last strike simply to stirke a never with the man giglamesh would toss his right blade high in to the air only to jut out his right arm palm first to literaly grasp and hold on to taraku's blade stoping it mid swing, blood would run down dripping off the base of his plam, but this only seemed to draw out his insanity further. "Is this it.......thats all the power your capable of..........your not even worth killing!!!" He would say that as chances are it would only enrage the man further, and with incredible speed giglamesh would jump high in to the air catching his falling blade and would literaly sprialy foreward a great number of front flips only to land on his feet squating at taraku's rear, giglamehs was six foot eight inches tall, but this man actualy dwarfed gig and had to be atleast eight foot tall he was utterly a giant. yet giglamesh in his crazed state literly like a saw tried to slice him down the entire length of his back as he fell, and would literaly pause for a instant hopeing the blood would spray before he made his next move. Next up giglamesh would stand circling clockwise slashign his right blade agin at taraku's lower back, and as it would seem as he was going to come around agin he would basicly use his high speed so he looked as if he went straight threw him appearing in front of him and makeing a insane rush at the samurai. The samurai seemd mush sharper than taraku and he hoped he would be a better challange, giglamesh would approach at extremnly high speed and he would come in with a rotateing counter clockwise right kick yet he purpose over took his range and as he landed he continued the rotation and came in with a low left slash and continued the counter clockwise rotation with a high right slash all at incredible speed's for any only looking they would known giglamesh was playing with his prey much like a cat before he killed them.

(taraku 386-51=335)
The shinobi was incredibly fast he evaded his frenzied strikes likes childs play, the oddest thing was as he does so it would almost look like there were several after images of himself wich maded it even more difacult. But threw everthing he could of blocked he purposly stopped the last, and his comment drove deeply than his blade could strike it turned his insanity to a color of rage, but before he could move the man moved first and like a flash of lights the next thing taraku knew the man rushed at osorugi, and before taraku could move his shilouete, would spread from the splatering from form the wounds to his back, the blood would splatter outwards like a explosion and before he could act He found hims self falling, but he would let it be over not this fast he would enjoy killing this one. Mid fall he would catch himself and only fall to a single knee panting from the pain he would glare at the shinobi.

Osorugi would be surprised form the samurai or should he say shinobi's attacks, yet there werent any thing he wassent ready for. the kick even though it was aimed to miss oso would of easily ducked it and as he came around with the first strike he would easily tilt his katana seathed in its saya to easily deflect the low slash with the seath and as he came around agin he would easily deflect it by slightly unseathing the katana allowing his to cloide with his, in that instant he would push back his attack and lean downwards and like the speed of lightning he would appear behinde giglamesh right arm straight out to right side holding the katana out straight as well, he has rushed his opening and tried to strike the shinobi as he passed with the unseathing motion.

((39+=dam auto))

Taraku would let oso take all the glory no he wanted this one death to come at his own hands, Depite blood loss threw the pain he would persevere death would come at his hands. From where he kneeled He would bascily jump rushing the man, he was serious know he weilded the kubikiri houcho with both hands holding it out to his right side, he would go right past swinging the blade horazontily to the left and with a counter clockwise rotation he would come back around with the blade and a verticly slash at giglamesh, but he was far from done he wanted him dead. Suddenly from a low point to the ground taraku would draw the back and try to trust in threw giglamesh and fianly violently back to the right.
