Reina Huiden
As both swords seemed to be locked together Reina stares her opponent in the eyes. Soon after her gaze goes to the blade Tsugime was holding. Suddenly the stitching seems to wrap around her blade and hilt and around her neck. "Oh, you got me." The way in which Reina said that was playful as if it weren't a deadly attack. She laughs when doves suddenly begin to shoot from her sleeves. It was so many birds that it would easily conceal Reina's entire body. The doves stop a short time later to show Reina gone. She sits in a tree, completely silent, watching her opponent. It wouldn't be hard to notice her since he was familiar with the surroundings and she wasn't really hidden; though, it would take him a moment.

His tendrils went slack as Reina vanished from their grip. This puzzled Tsugime. How was she able to escape so easily? The doves gave him a slight hint. As they dispersed, Tsugime got up from his crouched position to look up at Reina sitting on a tree. His raspy voice said "Ahhh. I see you are an escape artist. Of the Hiuden clan no doubt. Birthplace of one of the three legendary Sannin correct?" The tendrils creeped back into his cloak. He wondered how one would fight such an opponent. He waited for her to make the next move. It was only common courtesy.

Reina Huiden
"Maybe." replies Reina playfully. She stands atop the tree branch and looks at Tsugime a while. She looks all over the shown portions of his body and then his face. She again glances into his eyes before looking away. She takes her katana and places it into her cloak. She twirls the rose in her right hand around a bit before bringing her left hand out again. In it was an ace of spades. "Are you good at catch?" akss Reina thrusting the card towards him. Though it was aimed at him Reina wasn't going to strike him, instead, she was going to intentionally miss. As the card flies Reina leaps from the tree and onto the ground, her eyes now on his tendrils.

"Better than you think" Tsugime retorted. As the card whizzed through the air, He raised his arm to the side of his face. At lightning speed a dendril shot from Tsugime's wrist as it pierced the ace right in the center. It was off course but no matter. He felt like showing off. The tendril with the card stuck through it moved in front of the Waterfall ninja's face as he inspected it. "How about you?" He added. Then with a flick of the tendril, the card shot back at Reina. Tsugime's hair swayed slightly in the wind still covering his eyes. He wondered what Reina's next move would be.

Reina Huiden
"How can one perform magic? Why does one have a mask over their face? Why is this person speaking in such a way about themself?" asks Reina to herself. She raises the rose as the card seems to alter in course and dart into the trees behind her. It wasn't noticeable but when she had thrown the card it had alterred in course despite its speed it was flying. That was because Reina was controling the card with her magic. The card seems to fly high into the sky from the forest over Tsugime's head. It was dark so there was nothing to blind ones eyes by looking up at the card. The moon seemed to glow as the card stops then darts downward towards Reina's target. She watches Tsugime to see if he will again strike the card or this time move as she thrusts the rose a few feet in front of him -- it quickly embeding itself into the ground. She watches him contently being certain not to look him in the eyes this time.

Tsugime did a series of back flips so that he was back on one of the many stones in the pool of water just below th waterfall. It seemed Tsugime wanted to step it up a notch. Instead of friendly blows, he would begin launching dangerous attacks. Not deadly quite yet but they could be if Reina was careless. Tsugime made a series of hand signs as he muttered "Koudoutari Kessei: Tatsu no Jutsu" It seemed like nothing happened but this was not so. Little by little Reina would begin to fear Tsigume as if he were some sort of supernatural being. This would grow to the point where she would fear him as if he was a god in human form. Her fighting abilities would begin to dwindle little by little as she would be more hesitant to attack. Even when she did attack, there wouldn't be much effort put into them eventually rendering them ineffective. A black dust seemed to seep out of Tsugime's sleeves as they saturated the air. He made another string of hand signs as he muttered "Koudoutari Kessei: Bou no Jutsu" Tsugime began to speed up. He bounced wildly from stone to stone till he landed on a particularly tall one. He was moving so fast that even an advanced doujutsu such as the Sharingan would have trouble reading his movements. Tsugime waited to see what Reina would make of this.

Reina Huiden
"Very, very interesting." Reina states as she stays where she is. She remembered the dust from one of her battles but couldn't remember which one. She looks at the boy and laughs a little and looks into his eyes just as before. This time she seemed to peer into the eyes of someone greater than her. Someone who could possibly kill her with ease. "Have you ever seen a puppet show? They're oddly entertaining. I like how with just a few strings someone can manipulate someone into doing whatever they wished them to. If I could do that I suppose I wouldn't use strings. I guess I'd call it... Magic Assistant." Reina seems to smile as she continues staring into the boys eyes. She had made contact with his eyes three times and thus had unleashed her genjutsu upon him. He was now her puppet for a while. What would she do first? "I would very much like for you to end your mind trick. I recognize this from a previous fight. With an Aozame I believe. After that I want you to spin yourself around and tie yourself up with your own tendrils. After that you will be free after I perform one final trick on you."
*~ I reposted. ~*
Reina looks at Tsugime a moment before blinking. She then turns around and bolts into the forest and an intense speed. She was most likely using the speed of her already active demon seal. The noise of her crashing through the brush was loud for a while then quieted. In the forest Reina was laying upon the ground. She seemed to be performing some sort of technique that allowed her to disappear from sight even if laying on the ground. She would remain in her location a while to lure her opponent off. Even if he tried he wouldn't be able to sense her chakra or hear any noises her body made due to her cloak and her Seal.

*~ Yeah but then he wouldn't have seen my attacks coming. That's why I figured they'd have made eye contact despite that. I'll repost though, if I can. ~*

Tsugime figured that when Reina had implanted the rose, It would spell trouble on land. That's why he retreated into the pond. He pulled out a kunai and snapped all the tendrils keeping the cuts on his mouth shut. A mass of tendrils poured themselves out of his mouth as they plopped in front of him. Tiny tendrils then once again sealed the cuts on his mouth. This blob of tendrils molded themselves into an exact copy of Tsugime. The original then crossed his arms as he muttered Zodiac Formation: Ox Technique. Now nothing could hurt him with this in effect. The only draw back was that he couldn't move. His clone on the other had was free to go as he wished. The clone touched Tsugime on the shoulder gaining this same invulnerability without its drawback. All these techniques were remains of his days a Waterfall Hunter nin. The clone bounced from stone to stone back onto land. It then set off into the forest as it searched for Reina. It was true the clone was at a disadvantage but with its temporary immortality, it didn't seem the least bit concerned. After all, it was a clone and not the real thing.

Reina Huiden
Reina suddenly vanishes from her place on the ground and appears directly behind Tsugime. It was the second part of the jutsu she'd performed when on the ground. Using the Cloak: Art of Omnipresence she had allowed herself to become undetected. The second part of the jutsu allowed Reina to appear behind her target at a close range. It seemed as though her foe had left himself open to attack. Due to him being so close and unable to move she easily clasps her arms around him and takes his hands in hers. She performs a number of hand signs with his and her hands. The onlty one who could intiate the jutsu was her so making him perform the signs would do nothing. The hand signs she'd performed were to initiate her Magic Assistant jutsu. Since making eye contact didn't seem to work a manual approach was needed. Feeling in the spirit she would allow him one last move before taking over his body. He couldn't move even if he somehow allowed himself to break free from his own trick since the twos hands were interlocked, a skill of Hidden Love. His clone would have to do the honors.

"I was wondering where you would poof from. Magicians are such slippery fish." Tsugime wheezed. By now his intimidation jutsu should be invoking quite a bit of fear into Reina. It was true he couldn't move with Reina in control but he wasn't as concerned as one would think. The clone had ventured back to the waterfall by now. It jumped onto a stone as it assessed the situation. The clone made a string of hand signs. An electrical pulse jumped through the air via the iron dust Tsugime had released earlier. Denji Genmu was quite a handy jutsu indeed. The clone followed up with another jutsu: Koudoutari Keissei: Inoshishi no Jutsu. Gusts of wind came together as they forming into four boars made of a wispy smoke. They rampaged towards Tsugime and Reina at top speed. Suddenly each burst into a cloud of smoke as it slipped through the air. The smoke began swirling around Reina as it condensed into a concentrated cloud of smoke. This smoke was designed to hinder breathing. With Reina paralyzed in place, the smoke would continue to asphyxiate her. Hopefully the clone had performed the jutsu correctly, otherwise the smoke would just disperse making the air breathable once again.
((Mkay according to the jutsu, you roll 1 ten-sided. If its even your safe, if its odd you suffocate to death))

Reina HuidenA seal begins forming on Tsugime’s head as Reina notices the clones return. She had seen the dust once before but hadn’t witnessed what it was meant to do. An electrical current pulses through the dust and seems to paralyze Reina and her incomplete puppet. It seemed as though the currents had temporarily paralyzed her, rendering her motionless. Reina did enjoy motion quite a bit but required none to fight. Just as Tsugime begins performing hand signs, Reina’s gloves slip from beneath her cloak. Reina wished to find a way to rescue both herself and her godly adversary, so much so, that she requires more cover than needed. The gloves seem to snap as both Reina and Tsugime vanish in a puff of smoke along with the gloves and the boars run towards them, altering into smoke. Once the smoke from the gloves clears nothing seems to have happened at all. The gloves were still there as were Reina and Tsugime; however, one glove was clutched closed now. The smoke from the boars, had fully covered the gloves, Reina, and Tsugime by now and the effect would soon follow. 22/**

[[You lost me in that second part]]
The clone didn't wait to see what had become of Reina and Tsugime. It bit its thumb as it began making a string of hand signs. It looked over the edge of the rock into its reflection in the water as it slapped its hand on the water's surface. A few symbols spread out from his hand along the water's surface as a large shadow suddenly appeared in the water. It moved swiftly around the pond not making for any particular direction. The clone did the exact same thing again but this time there were many small shadows in the water instead of one large one. They swarmed through the water circling the stone that Reina and Tsugime appeared to be standing on. The large shadow suddenly swam at top speed from the left towards the two immobile shinobi. It rushed towards the water's surface until it leaped straight out of the water. Out of the pond burst a great shark with a tattered red scarf around its dorsal fin. It had its gaping mouth open as it made to tackle Reina off the stone, keeping her pinned in its great jaw lined with rows and rows of razor sharp teeth.
