"Ugh..." Slade says, as soon as he sees his ally become caught into these odd glowing swords. With that single hand sign that he had held until now. Almost instantly he had sank through the bench, and into the ground, making hand signs even while Yuan was captured in these odd swords, and unable to move himself. A single deep black skinned hand grabed Yuan's left leg, and then yanked him through the ground itself, with the help of the Grass Camouflage Technique. In order to allow him to dodge the attack, by Yuan's will. Only moments later, both Slade and Yuan would rise from the ground, though naturally Yuan should still be pinned at the time. "That is enough. I do not need deaths here." He says as he frowns slightly, releasing Yuan's ankle as he rises fully out of the ground, finishing his Leech All Creation: Attack Prevention Technique. And already making a couple more hand signs just in case he needed to use them next. [168]

Agito watched the others battle as he decided not to jump in. Eluamous has apparently been holding his own this long, but Agito didn't really think that jumping in would help him. If Agito were to jump in. Eluamous would most likely have to change up his battle plan. Agito began to look around, not really paying much attention to the battle anymore, and saw a figure walking around with seemingly no aim or destination, just wandering. Agito's saki had about ran out. All he had was a pitch black saki that he did not want to use because the current situation didn't call for it. Agito then turned and walked over towards the figure in ripped and tattered clothes, the person's skin seemed to be different somehow. "Don't die, spartan ninja. I'll be back" Agito said to Eluamous as he continued to walk over towards, the now seeming women. Once he was close enough, Agito extended his hand from behind and attempted to rest his hand on her shoulder. " hey, do you need help or something, your looking pretty out of it there." Agito said in a kind of cheerful way as he implied that she looked as if she were daydreaming or had lost her mind which is why she was more or less wandering around. Agito didn't feel a threat from the women, even though his eyes saw that her aura was larger than his own which meant that her chakra was higher than his. Since Agito's saki had run out, it was only a matter of time before he began to lose his own mind, his skai being like a stabilizer for his savage mind. Agito was known to be psychotic that was why he was hated in the cloud. Before he found out that saki could stop him form going crazy, Agito would snap on everyone and attack. He killed many in his old days which most likely what brought Orochimaru over to him and what made him give Agito a cursed seal. He wanted Agito to go berserk so he could watch the world burn. But against Orochimaru's plans, Agito had a drink of saki one day after he killed a traveler and stole everything the man had. The saki was rather bitter and strong but it's taste didn't make Agito drunk as much as it weakened the darker side of his mind which let his lighter side take back control. It was almost like he had split personalities, but instead of two different people, it was two different emotions. OR, more or less, two different sides of Agito. There was the kind and clumsy side which Agito referred to as his lighter side and the more precise, destructive, and evil side which always lusted for blood, which Agito referred to as his darker side. Agito had kept his darker side dormant for some time, but now that he was out of saki, his darker side was returning. Agito would make sure to stop by a store or something while he was in the hidden grass village in order to buy more saki before he left. He didn't want his darker half or side breaking out and having him attack his current ally. Quote: Word Count for this Post- 541 Total Word Count- 2698

 Hedoro had been lost in her own little world, descending ever deeper down an unrelenting spiral of hunger. As she got hungrier, she descended down the spiral faster, which made her even hungrier. So caught up in the gnawing insisting cry for sustenance, she didn't even notice the approach of a stranger. When they placed a hand on her shoulder, her mind snapped back to focus. Taking stock of her surroundings, she was still for a long moment. Then, in a voice which sounded equal parts burbling spring and bubbling muck, she spoke. "Remove that hand unless you want to lose it, solid boy." Even while she was talking, her rag-wrapped head turned a complete one hundred eighty degrees to look back at Agito. She didn't really need to, and if she hadn't been so hungry she would have only turned it as much as a normal human would have, but her hunger was making her sloppy. She pondered for a second if this one would make good food, but wasn't sure yet. Right now, she was more hungry than anything, and if she had to fight to eat, she'd only get hungrier. She'd have to make sure that they couldn't escape, not this time. (+205)

Agito's eyes slightly widened as the women spoke. It was rather odd how she spoke and what she said that made Agito recheck with himself. Asking himself, did I hear what I think I just heard? Solid boy? isn't she solid? what's going on!? Then right when Agito thought things couldn't get any weirder, it did. It got allot weirder. The women's head then turned around to face Agito without even the signs of cracking or her skin twisting. That meant that she wasn't able to dislocate her bones in order to turn it like some and it meant that she wasn't stretchable because her skin would have twisted. The women seemed to be made from something besides skin, something that had no definite shape. That might have been why she called him solid boy a moment or two ago. Agito was in such a state of confusion that he didn't think of heeding her warning and removing his hand. Agito was too busy thinking how two fight someone with no shape, someone who most likely could not be punches as it would slip through, she was a living liquid. But something that was a liquid would need to eat something wouldn't it? What would it eat? Could it have been like the zetsu clan which eat people? Agito thought s he then came to the choice that she ate people. Agito then began to slightly tremble as he asked himself why he always had to run into the m an eaters ad the cannibals. Agito reached for some saki to calm himself down as he trembled more and more in fear. Agito then pulled out a bottle of saki, it was about a quarter full. His hand was shaking as the saki slightly splashed out because of how bad he was shaking. Agito then gulped down what was left and dropped the bottle onto the ground. The bottle had a special marking on the label that did not say saki. It was a sign that many used in order to use the flying thunder god technique. Agito had put that on everything he had back when he first learned the technique, but he hasn't really used the technique in a very long time. As Agito reached for more sak, he drew another bottle. The bottle was empty as he dropped it next to the other bottle, neither shattering, it also has the same symbol on it along with all his other saki bottles. Agito went through each saki bottle, one by one, none having saki in it until there was a small pile of about seven or eight saki bottles. All that was left was Agito's black saki, but that saki was dangerous and would not help him calm down at all, it might actually have made him barf up his guts or organs if he drunk it in his current state. " w-what are you? Some kind of cannibal jell-o?" Agito asked shakingly, his hand still not removed. His mind was caught up on fear that it didn't register that he should remove his hand.

 Silently, Hedoro cursed. Another person had figured out what she was! Anger began to war with hunger, each sensation fighting for supremacy within her. During that battle, she watched as he tried to have a drink, slopping the liquid around clumsily. Her anger rose a few notches, with as hungry as she was, she was positive that he was mocking her. A low rumbling sound could be heard as she sub-vocalized a growl of annoyance, and she made her decision. Lashing out with one hand, it flew behind her with ease, not limited to the same range of motion as a normal human's. Her goal? That last bottle of sake that Agito had. He wanted to mock her, did he? Well, she'd take his last bottle for herself, then! "What I am is hungry, solid boy!" With that, she thrust her head towards Agito's hand, which was still on her shoulder, a rift in the rags opening up to allow her to take a bit out of his hand if he didn't pull back soon. Her patience was rapidly drawing to a close, she wouldn't be able to hold back much longer. Soon, one way or another, she would feed. (+201)

Agito slightly frowned in shock more than anger as the women lashed out with her hand. Agito got a chance to jump back, but his face was slightly hit with her hand as he dodged as all he was worried about was his hand more than his face so she wouldn't try to bite it off. Agito's foot smashed against the saki bottles on the floor causing them to scatter around. Agito didn't pay any attention as he got about two yards of space between the two and felt his face where her hand touched his face. Agito's pupils slightly shrunk as a frown instantly formed. Pain was something that Agito could not stand when he was out of saki. It made him want to attack back and when he fought, he lost his mind with every strike. Agito then did a string of hand signs and entered the rebirth process of one of his most strongest techniques as his chakra level was halved and his aura shrunk to about half his size. He had weakened himself not only to activate his own technique but to also maybe stop the women form attacking by making himself seem like less of a threat. "I don't want to fight you, if you hunger, ms., maybe you should go to a store and buy some food. If you don't have any money, I could spot you a little just enough for a sandwich or something." Agito had a feeling that the women would completely ignore him or find it as an insult, but he was trying to figure out a way to satisfy her hunger without her eating him or anyone else. Agito was now slightly starting to regret coming to the hidden grass village. It was filled with cannibals. Some where green and looked like plants with giant chompers for torso and some where blue-ish, made like a liquid, and had no definite shape or human limitations. Agito had fought against giant sea monsters with death rays, ninjas who controlled fire, bandits who killed just for the fun of it, demons, animals, demonic animals, light angels, and snakes with mouths bigger than him. But cannibals was one of the lighter Agito's worst fears. He only had two one was his darker side and the other were cannibals. Just the thought of a human eating the flesh of another or a ninja eating another was sick. It reminded him of beasts but at least with them, they could be predicted as they were usually creatures of habit, but not humans or humanoids. No one could know what they were thinking, they could snap or be nice. They could wait for you to sleep and then eat you alive. They could act like they were your friends and then take a bite out of your neck while they were hugging you. Why would people eat other people? It was barbaric, it was vulgar, it was savage. It was too much like how he felt when he went berserk. Agito knew what he would do when he lost control of himself and that was without the urge to eat, it was without the need to survive. But these beings hungered for human flesh and some needed it to survive. What could they possibly be capable of? Would it be allot worse than what Agito was capable of?Rebirth Process: 1/3 Quote: Word Count for this Post- 562 Total Word Count- 3778

 Hedoro straightened up when Agito pulled away, he had finally seemed to realize he'd been in a very dangerous position. She let her arms drift down to her sides, hanging loose in no particular stance or style. She could feel his presence diminish, was he going to attempt to run by masking his presence? Or would he fight? In the end, she made the choice for him. Hearing him offer to buy her a sandwich, she very nearly laughed, something she hadn't done in months, if not longer. "A sandwich will not quell this hunger, solid boy. Prepare yourself!" That warning was the most she'd give him for having at least offered to help her go get food. Immediately after speaking, she rushed forward, a kunai appearing in each hand. If Agito had been paying attention, he'd realize she was running towards him like she'd been facing him the whole time, but she'd never actually turned to face him. He seemed to be preparing for an attack of his own, she wanted to close the distance before he had a chance to do so. Without knowing what he was doing, she would have to operate off the cuff, and that would have to suffice. (+204) (Well, I'll leave it to your interpretation, but she hadn't been trying to hit his face, just grab his last sake bottle. Hmm, now to go track down the Rebirth technique, see what it actually does.)

Agito watched the women draw two kunai and run towards him with the intent to end his life most likely. She had at least warned him which was a surprise form one who was driven by hunger. It was then that Agito began to think that maybe there was still hope for the women. If she had the thought of doing that, maybe if Agito defeated her without ending her life, he could help her deal with her hunger. Agito didn't know if he could and knew that even if he did defeat her, he would have to wait as he still had a journey to finish, that was one reason why he couldn't die. He still had his journey with the spartan to finish. He would not let the spartan down by dieing and he would not harm his pride by slinking away with a loss after being swiftly defeated. No, Agito had different plans. Agito then noticed that the women was practically running backwards as her body never turned around but her head was facing him. It was as Agito feared, the women had no human limits. A human body would not only not allow the neck to turn in such a way, but ti would also cause the person to be unable to run with the best of their ability in such a state as running backwards on the knees would would be useless as they were faced against the opposite way and the change in direction would internally affect the body and most likely at least cause the human body to feel very dizzy. Agito merely smirked slightly, sweat still running form his forehead as he drew two kunai of his own and began to back up and slightly run to the side, attempting to evade her but in a large circle so their battle wouldn't merge with another battle. With the Eluamon's fai ryu breathing those hell flames, either one of the two could have been scorched and killed on contact. Well maybe not Agito's new opponent because she was made form a different material, but definitely Agito. Unless he used his armor, which he decided to keep deactivated until needed. AS Agito backed up he decided to test his theory or certain physical strikes slipping through as he threw a kunai, reached into his bag, grabbed four shurikens and threw threw as well. Agito didn't want to get too close because he didn't know just how fast she was or just how agile she was along with her odd body. But once Agito's rebirth process was done, he would have a little more confidence with it's great boost in power. It ws not as much a boost in power as much as it raised his chakra level and made him about four times as strong and four times as fast, but it was not really great as he seemed to be a little slower than her anyway so he would not be that much faster if he were to use his mask. But it would be enough for him. Whatever it took to win, that's what Agito knew. There was no real honor in battle, each person is fighting to beat te other so they one who wins will always be the strongest. Agito quested to be the strongest and he decided that he WILL be the strongest but in order to do that, he would need to go through a couple of people first. Maybe not a couple more like ALLOT of people, but he would do it eventually or so he believed.Rebirth Process: 2/3 Quote: Word Count for this Post- 600 Total Word Count- 4378

To slow spartan! As the glowing blades formed around him and spun, Yuan made hand seals unnaturally fast, with arms that seemed to bulge with greater muscle mass than previously. As the swords came clashing down around his mid-section, they seemed to pierce a fog. Yuan halted his attack, flowing effortlessly back through the blades. Slade's hand passed through the mist-like form as well. It was as though Yuan were a ghost. Completely incorporeal. As Yuan landed on the ground, he made several more hand seals, fully aware of the ball of flames making its way towards him. Summoning Jutsu! Yuan placed his hand on the ground and was engulfed in a massive cloud of smoke. As the huge ball of flame fell into the cloud and smashed into the ground, incinerating everything, a massive beast shot out of the side of the cloud. It crossed a large distance in a single bound due to it's great size. It was a giant red dog. It seemed to have small wings on its back. It's eyes were like a ripple, concentric circles expanding outward. There seemed to be a large black rod stuck into the dog's nose. Yuan clutched the mane of the back of the dogs neck. The giant dog opened its mouth and let out a mighty roar, sending a massive gust of wind at the spartan, surrounded by his clones.

 Hedoro continued in a simple charge towards Agito, closing the distance even as he put more distance between them. If they both moved at that same rate, she'd catch up to him shortly, he'd have to do something more than just backing up. As if that thought had spurred him to action, she saw him throw several projectiles at her. She knew they posed little damage to her, but nonetheless she lashed out with one hand, deflecting the kunai. In the process, the four shuriken struck true. Two embedded themselves partially in her, the other two only nicked her and continued on. She didn't flinch or stagger at the strikes, she just continued towards Agito with a single minded devotedness. She was close now, just a little bit more and she'd be in range. Or maybe not. She lashed out, still just beyond normal reach, both arms lashing towards Agito with a fluid ease of mobility, the kunai glinting in the light. From where she attacked, it seemed obvious that the kunai wouldn't strike Agito. But then why did they keep getting closer? With the ragged nature of her covering, it'd be hard to tell, but her arms were actually stretching the last short distance towards him, extending her range by a sizable amount. She didn't expect this strike to work, but if it did, all the better. It was his counter that she was already anticipating, though. Would he parry the blows, or continue backing away? (+247)

Azami looked around and noticed the Deidara clan boy appearing the be fight a girl who had her torso pointing the wrong way. Azami turned back in time to see the dogs sonic roar heading toward her. "Leech of all creation" Azami melded into the ground she was standing on barely avoiding the attack. Azami stepped out of the ground not far from where the backwards girl and the Deidara clan member were fighting. Azami watched the two and quickly deduced two things. One, that the girl was not made of a solid material, more like a liquid. and two, that the Deidara member seemed to be an alcoholic.

Agito backed up farther, farther, and farther. He watched as the woman just seemed to close in even more. He then cursed to himself as he saw the gap in their speeds. Then as the woman swung, he merely smirked as he knew that her arm would not reach, but then as her arms continued to stretch towards Agito, Agito jumped backwards in order to create some sort of a gap. Then as he jumped, his mind seemed to click as his rebirth process was complete. " alright! Let's get this show on the road!" Agito said as a mask began to from on his face. It was a black mask with two small horns on the forehead and red eyes. The mouth was completely cut out from the mask and revealed Agito's mouth when he wore it. At that moment, Agito let out a howl of power as his aura grew up to four times it's size before it was weakened by his rebirth process. His berserker mask had taken full affect as he became four times faster and stronger. He then threw his other kunai at the women, this one moving allot faster than the last. Agito then reached into his bag and pulled out two handfuls of clay as a toothy smile formed on his face. Agito then sprouted mouths on the palms of his hands. The mouths then began to mold the clay in his hands as he continued to move around just in case she decided to continue her attack which she had done the last time when Agito threw some projectiles at her. Agito then closed his hands and cuffed them around each other as the mouths continued to mold the clay. Then once the mouths had enough time to mold the clay, Agito then stopped. " This will be a most interesting of matches. I will finally find the weakness of one of the unique people on the face of the planet" Agito said as he opened up his hands and let lose ten birds of clay which all flew towards the woman. Agito thought that if projectiles didn't work, he would try explosions. That might cause the woman's body to separate all over the ground or at least stop her for a bit. Agito needed a weakness ,for this being, to be exposed so he could exploit it and attempt to win. She wasn't one who could be killed by being stabbed or at least that's what Agito gathered as she ignored the cuts as if they were nothing but air brushing gently against her jell-O like skin. She was different from humans so her weaknesses were not exposed. After Agito let the bombs lose, her then flipped backwards into the air and landed on the solid air itself in a crouch like position as his curse seal began to spread across his body. " I hope you don't let those little bombs kill you, I still want to play a little longer" Agito said with a slight cackle as the lack of saki began to let his lust for battle seep through.Quote: Word Count for This Post- 521 Total Word Count- 4899 Quote: Berserker Mask: chakra/strength/speed x4 for a cost of 300 chakra per three turns.

 Hedoro saw that she'd been right, Agito had continued backing away from her. She knew that he couldn't keep it up forever, but for as long as he did, she'd keep up the pretense of trying to corner him. Silly solid boy, so predictable. When he stopped backing up, she slowed her own approach as well, thinking he'd finally decided to go on the offense. And she was right. She could feel his presence expand by a large margin, enough to dwarf her own. But that didn't bother her, it just meant she'd have that much larger of a meal, and that suited her just fine. When he threw his projectiles at her once more, she threw one of her own kunai, to try to deflect the leading one. But it missed, flying clear past Agito and utterly wasting her effort. Or was it wasted? Not very likely. Without seeming to perform any hand signs, she disappeared in a slight puff of smoke, appearing behind Agito thanks to a substitution jutsu even while he was sending his birds towards where she had been just a moment ago. She started falling quickly, she couldn't stand on the air like he could. But she didn't try to fight it, instead she let herself fall to the ground, to impact with a solid thud. A moment later, the sky began to darken, black clouds moving in to dim the light of day. Fat droplets began to fall almost immediately. She started standing upright once more, ignoring the rain as it started to shower her. Instead, she was more interested in those birds, in where they would go next. This fight was getting very interesting, maybe this prey would be more amusing than she had thought? she didn't reply to his boast, at least not yet. (+302)

Agito's smile grew as the women used a substitution jutsu and appeared behind him but then fell to the ground once she realized that's she couldn't stand on the air. Agito stood up on the air and then began to flip backwards, his hands resting on the air itself and propelling him upwards as his legs did the same until Agito could now see the women on the ground while he was in the air. " I could be wrong, but I take it that because of your dodging my technique, I would say that you..can be hurt by these little pets of mine. I guess not many can prepare for a clan who barely ever shows their face or lets anyone live after they fight them." Agito said with a smirk as the black flame like pattern of his cursed seal. His Chakra, for those who can see it, was now a purple and black as Orochimaru's chakra which was seeping into his body and changing his own. Agito looked at his arm and the black flame like patterns on it. " This hasn't gone into another stage yet..too bad" Agito said to himself as he then a single hand sign and used his multi-shadow clone jutsu, summoning 200 shadow clones, then the effect of his curse seal activated which strengthened all his jutsu's, causing him to actually summon 300 shadow clones. Each shadow clone stood in the air looking t the woman with a smile. Each shadow clone then cuffed their hands together for a moment and let out about 10 clay birds, each. That now means that about three thousand birds were now summoned, each of them able to explode when in range of the opponent in order to defeat her. The original Agito then smiled in more cheerful way as he stood in front of each shadow clone. "lets see, you dodged ten, but what about three thousand? Lets see how you do, eh?" Agito said as the three thousand birds flapped their wings and made a large cloud of clay explosives. Then once Agito pointed his finger into the air in the form of a gun, he waited for a moment and said. " let it begin..bang" Agito said as the three thousand birds flew towards the woman, each not intending to explode until it made contact. But that was only as Agito planned, the shadow clones did have their own free will. That means that Agito's clones could always break away from his plans and do what they wanted, but Agito would just dismiss them anyway. But they were probably as interested as Agito to see how the women would fair against the thousands upon thousands upon thousands of bird Agito could thank Orochimaru for this, but Orochimaru did nothing but haunt his dreams and stopped his seal from getting any stronger, so until the dream haunting stopped or his seal got to it's next stage, Agito wouldn't thank him for anything.

 Hedoro tilted her head up to look even higher through the rain at the massive army of clones and the ridiculously large flock of birds all preparing to bear down on her. That was just not fair. She kept track of the ten from earlier as well, not wanting to be caught off guard by their sudden possible reappearance. She could feel Agito's chakra surge once more, now into a chaotic miasma of dark energy. Then, the birds were attacking, and she had no more time to think. The birds were in every direction above her, to the front, back, left and right, and directly above. But there was one direction where they were not! The ground! She sank into the ground rapidly, watching as the rain began to turn the ground into mud. As she sank deeper into the ground she continued to keep track of the movements of her enemies above her, content to hide for a brief moment and formulate another plan. With a force that big, a frontal assault wouldn't be very effective. No, she needed something a little more... underhanded. (+185)
