Welcome to Gaia! ::

Masaki turned as one of the original ninja barked orders. stay back and use ranged weapons? What a useless plan! He ran behind them, since they were his superiors, and picked up a bag of kunai and shuriken the loudmouth gave him. He thought for a moment of disobeying orders, but decided against it... for now. Guess im not going to get any stronger from this... he thought angrily. Long distance against mindless opponents who only died when their heads were destroyed... Real fun... He threw a few kunai into the mob.

((Robin, that text is really painful to read. could you try a slightly darker color please?)
Masaki suddenly realized he had ignored his superior's questions. "Oh, I am a suiton and Doton user." He shouted aloud, "But I only know a few jutsu" Suddenly he heard a beautiful voice egging Them on. He shouted back to her "Don't worry, I will surpass the limits of the ninja world altogether!" He felt his confidence boosting, and now felt his strength flow freely. "We could certainly use another hand...Mizu Bunshin!" He performed the seals quickly, and let his chakra flow out of him and take his form. It wouldn't be extremely useful, but all he was doing was throwing kunai into a mob of zombies anyways.

Downer questioned nothing as music, followed by orders hit his ears. He was flooded with power that sent his heart racing. He felt his skin tighen more, growing taut as he began to growl. He roared uncharacteristically, the sound coming from somewhere dark and deep within him. He gripped his staff hard and charged forward toward the white haired one. He launched it at one of the zombies' chest and rushed up to the other zombie. His speed matched nearly that of the white hair as his arms flashed. He fists fired rapidly, chain punching the stomach of the zombie. He finished the assault by elbowing the zombie in the face, sending it backwards. He then rushed forward once more, ending up behind the zombie. With a growl he grabbed the back of the zombie's head and drove it into the ground, his hand actually braking the skull and his fingers digging through the head, into the ground.

Adrenaline flowed through him, making his head hurt. what is going on? He thought as he bent over his kill. Zombies were beginning to advance, but he didn't move. He roared, grabbing the nearest zombie's leg and yanking him into the oncoming crowd. He only calmed down when he saw his staff, which had completely frozen the zombie it had impaled. Father? He thought as he rolled away from the dead zombie and posted his back against the back of the white haired ninja. "Hey, are you ok? snap out of it" He asked the wobbly ninja as he took a defensive stance and looked for an opening to rush out and grab his staff back. He wasn't really sure of the creed for mist ninja, but he wasn't going to leave a ninja alone when the ninja couldn't fight. He shook his head to clear it, the adrenaline still flowing, but not pounding his brain as it had been.

{comments: btw, he didn't hit stage one, he just came really close. I figure i should start introducing the Sanbi sooner than later. Besides, this is a pretty big battle, so i figured it would be ok to begin with. }

Robin continued playing upon her instrument, sounds exploding out of it as she could play the sounds of multiple instruments upon her bass. That's when she heard them...the Demonic zombies had finally caught up to her, howling behind her as they aimed to attack her from behind. She made sure she continued playing her bass as she pushed with her feet, jumping into the air. Not once did she stopped strumming her bass. Flipping in the air and landing upon the ground, she made sure to land next to the other Chuunin (Lance's rpc) and continued playing her guitar. Turning around, she looked up, the demonic zombies howling beneath the moonlight as they bore their fangs at her. Acid dripped from their claws, steam erupting from the ground which the acide spilled upon. Taking a step back, she knew there wasn't much she could do since she was trying to maintain her focus on the genjutsu. The problem with genjutsus are that even the smallest break of concentration will dispel the genjutsu. Thankfully, she was so great at it, and at such a high rank, that she could keep the genjutsu going.

Downer gaped at the shinobi that had broken the ranks. well, he 'did' say charge His eyes glanced around, trying to keep track of everything and everyone. ok...I'm all for practice....but seriously....how're we gonna get out of this? I need my staff. He thought as he once again sent a barrage of punches into the chest of a zombie that had gotten too close. This zombie actually struck out. Downer jumped back, the zombie's claw slicing through his cloak. His shirt began to disintegrate. Flailing around for a second, he calmed down enough to take the outer cloak of his outfit off. Uh, guys.....They got acid on their claws! he shouted as he ducked under the next swipe. For some reason, he still felt faster and stronger, so with confidence, he rushed in and grabbed the zombie by the neck. He lifted it off the ground with one hand and slung him into the closest group of zombies. He then stared at his temporarily exposed staff. He could feel the water flowing within it. He beckoned the staff over with a motion of his hand. The staff broke away from the completely frozen zombie it had been impaled in. It flew towards him, and he had to jump out of the way to avoid it. He grabbed at it as it flew by and snatched it out of the air. He held it, staring at it in his hands and temporarily forgot about the zombies surrounding him. what is happening to me.... He thought, fearfully.

A zombie smashed into him, knocking him to the floor and sending his staff flying. As the zombie tried to claw at him, he dodged the hands and grabbed at its wrists. Downer drove the zombie's fingers deep into the ground around his head. Downer was now pinned to the ground with the zombie on top of him. Downer's eyes grew wide as he saw the zombie struggling to dislodge his fingers. He was trying to think as fast as possible. After a few seconds the zombie stopped pulling. As Damien saw the wheels turning in the zombie's head, fear shot through his bloodstream, freezing him in his place. The zombie was going to bite into Downer's face. No! No! No! He screamed in his mind. His head turned and he glanced at the staff, still flipping in the air. He beckoned it over with his hand, and watched as it froze in mid-air, then launched into the head of the zombie impaling him. Damien waited just long enough for the torso of the zombie to freeze before punching through it, grabbing his staff, and standing up. He brushed himself off, taking deep breaths to try and calm himself.

{comments: I don't see why not. i mean, at the rate we're posting, it'll take half a year for you to unlock your first mokuton jutsu. stare besides....this 'is' a seemingly endless sea of zombies....that sounds pretty life or death to me. wink

P.S. I was gonna make him go Sanbi in this post, but i decided against it. Next life or death situation though... }

(alright, srry for the long absence)



Dodging lazily to the side as one of the fetid corpses lunged for him, Kaizen simultaneously reversed his grip on his blade and slashed upward, severing the ghoul's head from its body. As the body crumpled to the ground Kaizen noted that the mouth of the Zombie continued to move as its head spun through the air, its dead eyes searching for something to sink those sickening teeth into. As the head began to fall back towards the ground, Kaizen lashed out with his blade, skewering the what was left of the creature between its eyes. Eyes popping back into its head the creature let out one last moan before growing still. Red eyes still burning fiercely, Kaizen lowered his blade towards the ground, the skull sliding off of the blade slowly, smeared brain matter tainting the silver blade of Oni Koutai.

Turning around to face the rest of the horde as it continued to shuffle forward, hands outstretched and grasping at Kaizen, dead eyes focused on Kaizen's tender flesh, Kaizen lifted his blade skyward as his eyes took on a silvery-blue sheen. Pumping chakra into his blade, electricity began to ripple all along its edge. Letting out a guttural roar Kaizen swung his blade forward sending a blast of electricity roaring towards the oncoming hordes. As the electricity moved through the crowd, the shambling corpses began to seize up, the electricity coursing through their bodies causing their muscles to stiffen uncontrollably, and as the electricity reached their brains the zombies toppled over, their dead bodies no longer receiving orders from their fried brains.

Despite the numbers of walking corpses Kaizen had been able to dispatch however, the wave kept coming, that unstoppable wave of flesh pressing slowly towards them, threatening to bury them beneath its weight. Looking over his shoulder, Kaizen could see the others fighting viciously against the oncoming horde, but they were tiring, their actions becoming sluggish as fatigue took its toll. Even Yamatano was showing signs of weariness as he tried to organize their disparate group. As Kaizen moved to support the others however, a beautiful melody filled his ears. Looking up towards the sound, Kaizen saw the new Sannin from earlier, her fingers strumming delicately upon the instrument she held in her hand.

Looking back towards the group, Kaizen could see as the others became noticeably more energized, as if the music had mustered there spirits. Nodding his head, Kaizen knew that the others would be fine. As he lifted his blades to face the oncoming hordes once more, a voice sounded in his head, a voice which left the taste of bile in his mouth as he heard it. "Hello there little human. Want to know a secret? If you continue to fight. You and your friends will die. Pathetically actually. But I'll give you a chance to save everyone. If you can find my demon aura in one of these small huts by yourself. I'll give you a chance to save everyone.", the voice sounded, seeming to taint his very mind with each word.

Grasping his head as if in pain, Kaizen could feel something welling up inside him, something he was loathe to let free. Lifting his head back, Kaizen's eyes became two orbs of myriad shifting colors, as the voice of Houkou followed the words to their source, sending his own image to the demon's mind, his teeth bared in anger and disgust. As suddenly as it had come over him though, Houkou was gone once more, growling behind his cage. Stumbling back slightly, Kaizen's breathing came in labored gasps, looking behind him at the others, Kaizen could see that none of the others had felt an intrusion upon their minds as they all fought back to stem the tide of ravenous zombies.

Grip tightening around his blades, Kaizen rose to his full height once more as he looked around, his vision drawing him to a single hut, as if he could sense the presence of this evil. Eyes shifting to a sapphire blue, Kaizen muttered, "Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu," and suddenly three perfect replicas of Kaizen formed from the mist, each of them drawing their blades. With a nod of his head, Kaizen signaled for his clones to moved forward and cut him a path through to the hut. As the clones barreled into the zombies, their blades little more than a blur, Kaizen made his way through the momentary path they were creating for him.

As his blades danced in front of him, severing the limbs of any zombies foolish enough to reach out for him, Kaizen's eyes were set on the hut. With jaw clenched and hands steady, Kaizen sliced through the final zombie barring his path. Stopping for a moment in front of the curtain the occupants had used as a door, Kaizen took one final breath before stepping through. What he found could only be described as horrifying.

"Dreams... what are they but a crutch for those too afraid to forge their own path?"
