Silas appered on the horizon of the forest and looked around the premisis for any of the other shinobi occupying the border of the forest. "Haaaaaai, I was sent by the Kazekage to help guide through the forest! and I gots some twine too!" Silas continued to look around the area for an ally.

((A warning: if you are weak to images of gore, do not read the last few paragraphs and simply have your character stay put or leave until the rest come back for you. The gore starts after the options, and although I did try to tone it down a bit, some people still may find the imagery disturbing.))
The forest swayed slightly and for a moment everything was still. Silas would have no problem catching up to the rest of the group, as the trees would guide him there without casting any illusions upon him until he arrived at his comrades' sides. The trees underwent a subtle change which would affect each person traveling within the forest differently:
a) Those still affected by a previous illusion would feel as if the world had been turned upside down, and that they were going to fall off of the face of the planet if they did not cling to the ground. If they decided to keep walking, the body would start to show signs of fear, and with each step they took, the effects would mount until they were unable to move and adrenaline flooded their systems. They would be unable to move because the fear would have paralyzed them, and they would need to be released from the illusion by an outside source.
b) Those not suffering from another illusion would have their ears become incredibly sensitive. The sound of the most muffled breath in the group would become painful, and anything louder than the crunching of leaves would be almost debilitating. If left alone for too long, those affected by this illusion would begin to show signs of hysteria and delusions.
c) If the forest becomes agitated--say, after being lit aflame--the effects of all illusions lessen slightly but are not affected by Kai [Release] until the flames are extinguished. Experts might call this a "natural defense" against predators.
___________Start gore_________________________
No matter which path was chosen, as soon as the group was able to locate the source of the sounds of fighting, they would be lead to a large clearing with a suspicious hut in the center. At first, only this would be visible due to a thick fog, but as soon as the group entered the clearing, the fog would settle and a grotesque scene of gore and slaughter would assault their eyes. They would see the aftermath of a massacre: the grass was encrusted with crimson and brown; bodies were pinned to the ground by trees, boulders, and other bodies; others were impaled on weapons of black and red, and some of them were still twitching as the final spasms of death wreaked havoc on their bodies; hands, legs, arms, and heads lay about the area, sometimes far from their respective bodies.
Scorch marks characterized the few dry patches of grass, and many of the corpses as well. Despite the large number of bodies crowding the area, there were also piles of dead serving as a borderline between the rest of the forest and the clearing, some burning and others already blackened in to nothing but charcoal and bones. Insects and animals had yet to invade the area; the stench was almost too foul near the piled dead for anything living to approach: a stench to match the scene. If anyone examined the ground closely, they would perceive a layer of salt underneath the gore, which would explain the lack of in the trees and flowers that pervaded the rest of the forest. A fine blood mist rolled along the ground in the clearing, dyeing the ground the color of death.
Only three things unified the corpses strewn about the area: death, the amount of stitches and old wounds on each body, and a pendant hanging from each deceased person's neck that consisted of a triangle within a circle. One person would be found freshly dead or dying, and if the group was quick enough, they might be able glean an extra token of information from the last man alive in the clearing as he breathed his last breaths.
In the forest of illusions, the group would find something too horrific to be real, and that one thing would prove to be more real than the reality they had known before entering the clearing.

  ◆◈◆◈◆"My sands will be your end"◆◈◆◈◆
As San approached the clearing, his senses started feeding him information.....AHHHHHHHHH!!!! The sounds...his ears....what the......They where so sensitive. BEYOND sensitive. It had to be the effects of the forest, effects of something off and powerful. Through the bonds golem, due to it ot being anything auditory, would not affect him like speaking would. Hopefully Howaido would be experiencing somehting similar, or different so they could nail down if this was yet again another technique.
"Howaido......my ears are super sensitive...what are you feeling? Anything off?"
San then used hand motions to everyone to show about his ears, point at them and using his other hand to show the "shush" sign. It was unclear what the others where feeling, if anything at all, but maybe if they say the Jounin acting a cautious and certain way they would be less fearful or affected.
And thats when the smell hit him. His ears were maybe sensitive, but thankfully his other senses where not so. If so, the smell of death and decay would surely had caused him to vomit. Thankfully his blindfold saved him from what he knew to be a rather grotesque scene, but his other senses could tell him all he needed to know about the scene. Suddenly in his ears he heard a massive bumping sound. It hurt...but he had heard the sound before.....a heart beat? San spoke through the bonds golem again to Howadio while motioning with his hands about a beating heart and a possible direction it was in.
"howaido...i hear a heartbeat! That way!"

Howaido Hatake
Hatake Clan-Toad Summoner-Bonds Golem Sanshi Satetsu-Jounin-Oinin-Bukijutsu Class-Pai Qua Quan Master-Hakyoku-ken no Kata Master-Juurai Toorima Master-Shunkan no Hagane-Hiten Misturugi Ryu Creator-Suna's Guiding Light "I owe my life to this village, theres no way I couldnt die for it." 
As Howaido stopped near the end his eyes feasted upon the scene, it was but pure horror. As he took one step forwards he could not and he could only fall to his knees at the display. San, what is all this.... no... dont come to my aid, I dont think any of you need to see this... He was crippled by the sound of a strong rustling as his knees hit and the wind blew and the stench was horrid. The sound would reach his ears and instantly blood would trickle down his cheek as the sound was immense. He fell to the bloody stained earth clenching his ears as he tried not to make any sound. My ears! Ive got... to... Kai! He struggled to move his hands down as he shut his eyes and released chakra for the dispersion of the sound effect genjutsu or not maybe he even used too much chakra. He then stood up and swallowed his own revulsion as he climbed to meet the scene again, everything was so horrible he could only hope to look for life as death was too common here. He raced to the side of the only moving body remaining, either near death or in regamordis. He went to the mangled body and looked only at the mans half closed glazed eyes, he could look at nothing else,"What... what is this good man?"
-Chakra:725

Eziel dropped from the sudden noises he was hearing. then the smell. oh the smell was horrid. he pulled out a piece of fabric and pressed it against his face to hopefully dampen the smell. sadly it didn't get rid of the noise. that was when he heard soft breathing like that of a dieing man and the faint hint of a heartbeat. he rushed over to where it was only to find san there already. or was it san. he knew that this place was playing mind games with them so how could he be sure. "who are you?" he asked getting into a subtle balanced taijutsu stance so that he would be ready to fight if needed but he wouldn't give away the fact that he was unsure about san.

Tying an end of the twine to a tree outside of the forest Silas picked out some ear buds to a music device and plugged them into his ears. Next Silas put some yellow tinted goggles. Silas tied another end of twine to his belt and made his way into the forest. "Boys and girls be ambitious, boys and girls keep it re-al!" he sang as he made his way deeper into the forest. A fog started to roll in and continued to sing the words to himself softly "Otona ni narezuni, Demo kodomo demo irarenai, Toki mo arudaro!" Silas was coming into view of the rest of the crew and immidiatley smelled blood. "Aiiyah what happened?" Silas looked around and saw a cottage with dead bodies, Silas' eyebrows twitched and Silas got into a formation and prepared for his Kai (release). This had to be a Genjutsu...

The skeleton covered man grasped his necklace with his left arm before opening his eyes. They shook to & fro before he unexpectedly sneezed blood all over Howaido. Coughing up more blood after sneezing on him, the man's grin turned sour. "[insert censored material here] ...stupid sand ninja! By the grace of Jashin, I would kill you if I could! You--" Trying to raise his right arm to strangle Howaido, it snapped & cracked clean off, spraying blood all over the ground. Here for a second, the man screamed as he nearly went unconscious, yelling more obscenities at the arm that once was a part of him. "Siniku, that b*****d... but we at least injured him... the flowers... the trees... Jashin be praised!"

Quickly pulling out a scroll from his pocket Silas looked it over quickly and started to perform his hand signs one by one. Getting to know the techniques and focusing on how the technique works Silas glanced over to his allies in pain. Silas focused back on the scroll while some deathcore came on his music device.
[1/4]
Silas started bobbing his head and getting the rhythm down with the hand signs. Performing the signs ever so quickly a small mist appeared around him and the mist would intensify as if it were the beat to the music. Coming and going in sudden bursts.
[2/4]
Silas couldn't stop getting pumped up and as he closed his eyes and listened to the music as it enveloped his soul. The music had put Silas in a trance and Silas couldn't help but feel overwhelmed and his spirit was one with the jutsu and music. Silas kept his breathing slow and paced. The next song came on and it was a lot softer than what he had just been listening to.
[3/4]
Silas was calm and soothed by his music that he performed the jutsu on the spot to protect his friends. Kirigakure no Jutsu (Hidden Mist Technique), Mist enveloped all around the party and Silas stayed back to be unseen and crept his way up to the relying members of his team mates. Silas tied the rope to San's belt, Howaido's and any other member in the party and tugged slightly to their attention and motioned for them to follow. His sillouette could only be seen and they had no other reason not to follow him!
[4/4]

Eziel dropped to the ground in pain from the man's yelling. his forehead protector fell to the ground and it seemed like blood was dripping from his ears. he would be the only one to see this as it was a side effect to the genjutsu he was suffering from but was unaware of. he heard every painful detail of the occurences due to his proximity to the man. he grabbed his forehead protector in one hand and started crawling back towards howaido even though it ment getting closer to the man. that was when he felt a tug at his belt and turned to see a figure in a mist that seemed to appear from nowhere. a rotting hand like one from one of the burnt bodies seemed to be reaching from the figure. the arm had skin sections falling off and the smell was like none he'd ever smelt before nore would ever want to again. he used his air pocket burst technique to try and destroy the hand. this would do nothing other than possibly snap the string on his belt from the pressure as the halucination was in between him and silas.
