Rin Kairiu (Are you sure that I can use that 16?) Ame nodded and took the scroll and lantern. She set the lantern on a small ledge and opened the scroll slightly... she wanted to make sure it wasn't a trap that sensei had set. Luckily, it was one of the markers that was placed in the caves for them to collect... She watched and waited, as told, for Zanza to return...well would asume, sensei did give us the DC before you rolled that. and as long as you don't roll for anything but this DC, you should be fine. you can't help not being able to see what you roll. ohh, i wanna give houka a chance to post before we go any farther.

(Well it wasn't that difficult XD lol, I got the godess of luck with me tonight)
Houka nod to Zanza just before he leaved.
He then watched has Ame unroll the scroll. He was relive that it wasn't trap this time. It was the right scroll and its seems they where only two missing scroll. Then, Houka could not help but to glance in the shadow that lead to the left path. He saw a gleam of silver reflected by his lantern. Houka slowly walk near it, bringing is lantern near the suspected place.
Houka quickly sense something on his foot...a rope. He had walked in a trap. The rope was losened and the gleam he saw was a spear coming at him. Sense Houka was far away from it and that is vision was at his maximum, he quickly side step the spear who came slowly anyway.
*Dam, sensei...is this an idea of a joke.*
Houka suddenly remember the danger of the cave...maybe it was just an old trap....to take care of trespasser. Anyway, Houka hit the wall of the cavern. Doing so, he heard a small crack...stone fall down near his feet. Houka was still scared after the spear trap and he decided to do the same thing he usually did...he brought his lantern before him. Their was a simple hole, and he saw what appeared to be a scroll. Houka slowly grab it and he bring it near the lantern. It wasn't old and he could tell that the writing had been drawn since some day.
*Well, that was easy...still, I need to be cautious now.*
He come back near Ame. While doing so, he had thought about the team. Zanza was quick witted, with a short temper and a lonely spirit. Still, he was a dedicated fighter and Houka knew that he would become stronger. He had leadership quality in him...but he didn't took time to analyse his teamates strength and weakness like Houka did. This could lead to bad choice. Houka didn't know, but he had leadership quality too. In fact, the whole team where leader of some sort. Didn't Ame mention she was her team leader? Still, Houka prefer to be an advisor right now. He could think fast and quickly analyse the situation. He could prepare strategy at this time, since his team would need to rely on that. Houka wasn't that strong at hand to hand but if he had his Bo in hand...well most bandit would run away in fear. Houka didn't showed it, but he could be very intimidating sometimes. Ame was a a blend between melee and ninjatsu. She would grow strong in both.
*So, two brawler, one being a strategist, one brain power for genjutsu, advisor and backup plan...well, this would make up a good team, if they didn't shout at each other, wich is the contrary of being a sneaky ninja in a dangerous place like his teacher said so many time...SHOUT?*
*Dam it, why didn't I think about it. We are in a cave, the echo of our ''talk' would come all the way to the ears of our ennemy.
Houka quickly reach Ame.
He said, with a low voice:
''I think Zanza maybe in trouble. We make sound around us. We are in a cave. Our conversation from before could reach unwanted ears. Lets be on our guards...oh and I found this scroll who was hidden in a wall. Shall we go after him?''

Zanza walked down the hollow cave, seeking those whom were soposed to be a treat to his team. " I'll be damned if we're gonna wait for them to find us. I don't care who these bandits are. I can't let the others get caught by them. " He said, takeing the right path. with out a light to guide his way, it was hard to even tell where he was going. It was as black as pitch, and no other noize could be heard exept the simple taping of footsteps that he made while carring on down the path. He stoped suddenly as he came to an end to the path. However, it wasn't where the path had crumbled and rocks had scaterd blocking the path. No, the path was solid, like a wall. " well this was a waste. " he said, and in turn, raced back to the site he had left the others.
When he got back, he said nothing. He only observed what the others were doing. they now had two scrolls. " alright, so I take it we only have one scroll left. And only one path to follow. The right path is blocked. Lets head down the left path. me and houka will walk up front " he said, whispering to keep the echo down " Ame, walk behind us and be ready to flank. If their are any bandits in this cave, this is the place they are gonna be. Stay on your guard. " he said begining up the path.

Ame watched Houka as he tripped a trap and found a scroll... She waited for him to finish whatever he was doing. She already knew that their voices would echo... but wouldn't it be better if the bandits came at them instead of Zanza? He was by himself... but her thoughts were broken when he arrived next to them. Barely paying attention to his instructions, she followed behind them as told. She still needed to find her scroll...

Giglamesh would come walking in from the badlands, he knew exactly where he was going in here as he had been in so many times before. With he he wore the yellow gem he recived from the mud golems as a necaklace charm. I Aparently it showed a sing of respect as normaly they would alreayd be attacking him, but this time entering the cave came with not restiance, he made he way deep in to the caves, extremly deep where there was absoucly no light still shingin down from the sun, and the deeper he went it was as if the yellow gem glew brighter and brighter the deeper he went. Perhaps this crystal absors sunlight and the darker it got it realesed it, perhpas it was reacting to somthing in the caves. It was to hard to tell the reason and his thoughs were alreayd so heavy he didnt think of it.
He was so far in most have not even though of going this deep but he had a designated area he wanted to find and he would find. Giglamesh was probly the only one capable of this in the village, due to his hearing skills being so good to compensatie for his alsmot blindness. As giglamehs entered he had never been this deep but it was like he knew exactly where he was going, but how could that be. What giglamesh was loking for was the anbunai river, the river wich flowwed threw the canyon. Udner neathe where the villeg was built though the river goes underground, and that was what he was loking for, but he has never been down the far how did he move like he knew where he was going.

Giglamesh navigated threw the caves as if he knew them his hole life, but how is this possible gig hassent been this deep, if any body has ever been this deep for that matter. The answer was that every time giglamehs came he he would hear the sound of the rivers flow, he was simply following it threw the cave it its source. It wassent to long before he fianly enter a massive passage in side the passge flowwed the river, and as he looked down the massage way it seemd to strech further than the eye could see. With no light in there is was as if the water reflected lights from where the light was above river up in the passage way mostly on the celing. While it had light is was still pretty dark execpt for the water it was pretty well lit up from it portion wich was above ground. this is where giglamehs would be placing to the test his guess on the next technique. If he was right it should be easy, which he will need for the next step wich will be harder. It he was wrong this would be much harder, thus maskign the second stp nearly impossible.
Giglamesh would walk to the center of the underground river, the same clone from the previous day, It retured its mass to the same as giglamesh and it followed gig on to the water but would stop. Giglamehs would then unseathe both Kuroisan, and Shirotsuki. Unlike his normaly stance he would hold both blade pointing down resting the flat backs of the blades agint his forearms. He woudl stand looking down but would close his eye and stand straight up but he would slide right foot out in front of left slightly and push down the front of his foot keeping his heel on the water's surface. He would then begin to channle chakra threw his feet and channle it directly to the nerves making them much more sensative to touch.

the clone would unseaht one katana and begin to run aroud giglamesh in large circle, he would then begin to charge in from his rear left. He would come in ready to slash katana in left hand from his top right to bottem left. Giglamesh would wait as if he didnt know where the clone was coming from as he didnt, but right as he got within that five foot diameter range he feel the rippls on the water. The clone was coming in with his right foot slighty torqued, sugesting that he upper torso was back meaning it was downward strike and since it was lead with right foot thats means that the left would come in durring the strike so it was most likly a downward strike to the clones left. Giglamehs would grin and right as the slash would hit he would dissapear to appear behide the clone back facing it. the clones chest would spilt open from a verticle cut, and sand would begin to pour out. On his first try it was a astonding sucess, he had done it as well as his master had to him, all those guess would seem to be correct. Although it was obviou he was still learning this technique, as the slash on the clone was poorly done, and giglamesh wassent able to return to the stance behide the clone perfectly. It was a incredible attempt lucky atempt one that most likly he would not be able to reproduce easily.
Reguardless he would have to however. He would return to the stance and begin channeling chakra to his right lead foot and wait for the clone to move around to decided where to attac from agin.

This time the clone would come in lower to the ground and would try and do low slash at giglamesh's legs. But as he got with in that five foot diameter just like before he would disapear and reappear out side that five foot diameter range behide the clone. The clone only got a small cut on it right shoulder. It became obviosu the thing he would have to work on the most, that would be the prediction of the enimies moves from there foot work, he had a guess but subconcisouly he pictured the attack still going for his own body, and due to this the result were so good. The last time was simply lucky but still, massive diference in the outcome.
Giglamesh would agin reassume the stance, and begin concentrating chakra to the tip of his right foot wich lead out in front of the left, in this stance in his mind he would picture himself standing in darkness with the water rippling from the water walking technique, the ring of water stopping at the five foot mark, there he would wit for the enmy to attack.

The clone would flip the blade and come in low and trying slashing the blade upward verticle at giglamesh, as he came with in that five foot diamater he felt the ripple form his step, it was pushign down hard showing strehgth was pushing upward so most likly a upwarda attack, the blade this time would come dangerously close to giglamehs before he disapeard and reapeard behdie the clone agin out side the five foot range. the time a x shaped slash would from over the clone back as he stood. It was done better than last but far from good enough. Giglamehs would step away and ready the stance to atepmpt agin. The clone would also move away and ready to attacking agin, keeping sure to move aroud to keep him guessing.

*I have a bad feeling about this.*
Houka didn't like what could happened, but he decide to follow close to Zanza.
He whispher to the team:
''Their was a trap, right there. I trip it and now the coast is clear. I think we should be carefull...we need to keep our eye's open in case they are more traps in there...I now wonder if those bandit set them up...or if it's just some ancient device...''

Zanza turned his head, and not his eyes to Houka. " Well you seemed to handle it well enough. Just pay more atention to what your doing. Lets pick up our pace a bit. don't waste any energy but keep up. " He said walking at a quickend pace down the corridor. " Eyes up, we're in enemy territory now"

Ando sat around watching Ame and her squad do some type of training but he eventually got board and left the caves.
"She seams busy....I'll come back later."
He then made a hand seal calling back his puppet in a puff of white smoke and walked back to the village to take care of some business.

The clone would actuly atempt to trick giglamehs by stepping within that range and stepping back out circling and coming in agin. Giglamesh would feel the step from the clone and would feel it wassnt right as as foot landed it was like it was pushing, but giglamesh would actuly try to attack the clone but as it moved away he would miss, he would be moslty out of the stance and would begin to opens his eyes but he felt the clone agin and would instanly disapear agin. Evertime he dieapear he actly slashes the enimies incoming attack, then in that moment affter the attack before the defense can get back up is when this jutsu strikes. He would reappear behide the clone slashing it deeply in to its arm pit. Just like previous attacks it like the attacked portion of it body regenerates back to normal. That attempt turned out good but unfortuanly it had to be done twice, and he barly got lucky on second attempt. What if sombody would really do that as he attacked, he would have to learn the foot work better to advance. He would return to the stance atop the river's surface. He woudl stand arm down to sides katana's back surface of blades resting agint forearms And would begin to channle chakra in to leg it intensfy touch. the clone would begin to decide a new approach to atack him.

Giglamesh would ready himself for the clone, The clone would move from side to side making it sound like he was purposly chanign direction, but giglamehs was basicly blocking out the sounds focouing directly on touch for now. The clone thining it might have fooled him would rush in straight at him with massive speed and would try to come in tiwh a powerfull and fast thrust. But giglamesh easily felt the step from the clone and easily hit the attacking blade parring it, cirliing around behind the clone strikeing with a single incredible blow. The clone arm litrealy poped off close to the shoulder and as it hit the ground the chakra would break down and the sand rich, from where he made the clone, would speard apart in the water rapidly. But stone clone were incredible thing just like a normal person they would recive damage, but clones could redisperase the minerals in themself to reapier there image, while they would still take damage it would look as if they didnt. A tendril of sand would bascily come out of the severed arm and whip around for a second befroe becoming wider and becoming detialed, the hand would even recreat iteslf holding the cloned version of shirotsuki. It would move it arm about for a moment to re get feeling in it and reayd itself agin.
giglamehs was suripisde he did it really well, either he got really lucky agin or he wa salreayd getting hang of the technique. Giglamehs would take a depe breaht thrying to puch out the results from last attempt out of head and reayd to tr agin, returing to stance.
