Welcome to Gaia! ::

Komens eyes were keeping up with the former kage as he was trying to calculate in his mind what was going to happen. His clones were disrupted and destroyed before they hit their mark. Which was fine by Komen since they were their as merely a distraction to get the former kage to waste some of his chakra. Komen still had time to pull a fast maneuver as he held a handseal. Komen felt the attack hit dead center as he was seemingly destroyed. Komen watched as the kage seemed to be at a stand still after he had thought to have destroyed komen. Komen in fact had performed the replacing technique once again. Komens destroyed corpse returned as the bouquet of flowers that he had left behind. Komens hand caem from underneath the former kage, "Earth Release Inner decapitation technique." He said as he was beginning to pull his down into the ground. The way of the crippling palm was beginning to shut down the tenketsu points in the feet of the former kage as Komen was trying to pull down the kage.

Komen popped out of the ground as he had successfully performed the earth release innter decapitation technique. Komen started to do handseals one after the other as he had time to do so. Komen needed to try and get things pushed into his court as he was good at taijutsu, but he didn't know any of the gate techniques. Komen started to gather chakra into his lungs as started to expel a high pressured blast of water at the head of the trapped opponent. "Suijinheki." Komen wanted to basically drown the opponent as he started to perform another technique. "Symphony of Water." He said as he hoped this combination would keep him paralyzed and steal oxygen from this living dead being. Though being living and dead, Komen didn't know if this combination would do anything at all.

Komens eyes were having a harder time keeping up with this one as he had throughly drenched the dead man. His clothes were soaking now as he was covered in mud and such. Komen couldn't act too quickly as he was struck with a powerful upward strike. "Crap." He said as he was engulfed in flames. Komen needed to find a way to take himself out of this as he thought of one of his techniques. As the raising leaf technique was about to hit him, Komen dissapeared from site using his special maneuver, "Eight Trigrams, winds of Fate." He said as he started to spin rapidly as winds gathered around the two mid air opponents, creating a large devestating funnel that lead down to the ground. The winds were filled with chakra as it was made to stop any body from leaving. If one where to forcefully leave, they would be cut up extremely badly by the wind. Komen continued to spin in mid air as he used gravity for the next portion of the attack, "Great Heavenly Spin." He declared as gravity was pulling down Komens chakra sphere to the ground, trying to crush the former Hokage into the ground while the winds of fate made it difficult to escape.

Komen breathed heaily as this battle took alot out of him. His trap and attack techniques were tested to the limits in this battle. He saw the blade presented to him and blinked a bit. He was confused as to why he was presented with the blade. Komen took the blade and hoped that it was ok to take such an item. The former Hokage went back into his grave as komen held the new blade in hand. He hoped that he would prove to all in hidden leaf that he was worthy of this new blade.

Acquire new blade. Heaven and hell blade.

Chiyo smiled shyly as she took Hayate’s hand. “It’s nice to meet both of you. I was heading to the hospital to enroll as a medical ninja. I’m sorry if I was rude, I get easily distracted... Um, Yukimura right… are you okay?” She didn’t know they had fought, but she did notice that they both looked exhausted. She wished she could have at least learned something before hand. That gave her an idea as she smiled. “You guys wouldn’t mind if I tried something on you, since to seem to be exhausted.” She pulled up her sleeves, wondering if they would let her just examine them for practice.

Nara Dev looked straight at the ghost and then said, "I don't know. You just don't look like the friendly type." Dev began to relax a little bit more at since he felt the man wasn't as a threat to him as before. He then looked at him again and then said, "So why are you here?" Dev didn't know what a usual ghost liked to talk about so he was kind of brain dead especially at since he had never seen a ghost before as he believed it was just some sort of jutsu.

"The same reasons Every ghost is stuck here..~" Than replies, twirling in a circle slightly, and then turning back to face Dev again. His entire features had changed a little. The wings normally flapping and floating behind him, now folded tightly together, some appearing as a hood to the cloak that the remainder of the wings had formed. A few feathers still hung in the air, before vanishing as they hit something solid. His odd inverted eyes peer from beneath the sinister seeming hood, as he looks upon Dev again. A sly little smirk slowly beginning to form across his features. "Don't feel too relaxed... Want to play a game?" He asks, as a wide grin forms, in place of the small sly grin. His inverted eyes seeming to spin unnaturally as he remains where he was, in his shadowing cloak. Though these shadows, that blocked his face, were more of imagined because of the way the hood dipped over his transparent ethereal form. For a ghost could not shed a shadow because of light. His teeth, much whiter then normal, also applied to the unnatural feel of his form, even while a single hand emerged from the wing made cloak, to gesture in such a way as if beckoning for Dev to join in on this unknown game to which Thantos spoke. "It will be fun. You'd enjoy it.. And if not, I will.." Than then says, slowly nodding his head in a twisted and scary sort of way while the hand he had used to gesture, slowly vanished into the folds of the wing like cloak without a sound to mark it's passing. Actually, not a sound was heard from him, aside from his occasional unearthly and almost echoing voice when he spoke. There was nothing to show his presence in this world of worlds, aside form the non physical form that floated in mid air before Dev's physical form. Making the true reckoning of his appearance even more devastating to the mind, if at a current level, or a tug at the inner depths of the mind, to which most would only subconscieously notice.
