Sparring with a new Friend [Demetri & Xuro, P, NK]

Xuro got up early on bright sunny day. He got dressed in his normal fighting attire, had breakfast and left the house. He had just been on a few missions yesterday and was still very tired. Today he didn't wan to do anything so he decided to go to the Borders and walk around there and probably just relax as the borders were very quiet and peacful just the way he liked it. Xuro began his walk but later started running just for a little exercise. He finally reached the borders. At the borders Xuro would find a nice soft comfortable place on the grass to lay. He found one in a shady area just off the road. He went there and laid down humming a peaceful tune as he comforted himself. He had so many things on his mind and just wanted to get rid of everything by having one full day of relaxation.

Demetri was walking along the borders, absent minded and thinking of nothing in paticular, He smiled as a spar from the past came into his thoughts and then grimaced as he remebered that he had lost that spar. He started thinking over what he had done wrong and what he had done right. He remebered that he had tried to do a fancy flip on some one with a sword the last time he was here and started to rub his butt as the scratch that it had made started to hurt again even though it was fully healed. Demetri wore a skin tight black shirt with no special enhacements and a pair of snug jeans tight enough to avoid someone grabbing but loose enough as to not restrict movement. He walked along the border more thinking of things long past, like his rival Banteki dying in front of his eyes and his body taken away, When he came along a Boy laying in the grass in the shade. "Yo whats up?" He said calling out to the boy. He would wait for his reply before going on to say "My name is Demetri. Care to spar?" Demetri did not carry his katana today he felt like he did not need it so he left with out it.

Xuro was laying peacefully still humming his tune and thinking of what he should do tomorrow when he heard someone walking to him. The person told him, "Yo whats up?" Xuro opened his eyes and sat up seeing a boy standing there in front of him. He boy continued, "My name is Demetri. Care to spar?"
Xuro stood up and walked up to the boy. He gave his hand out for this boy, now known as Demetri, to shake. "My name is Xuro, Xuro Bakuton. Sure I would love to spar!" Xuro said as he waited for Demetri to respond

Demetri met the boys hand with his own and shook his hand. "Bakuton huh? is that some kind of clan?" He asked the boy looking him over and decided that even though the boy looked older his frame was not as good as Demetri's judging from what he could see of the boys legs muscles he appeared much faster. "Ok then! Any rules you would like to make?" He asked as he started to think through his jutsu his hands started to weave seals on there own no chakra was put into them, Demetri has never known why he does this he just does with out thinking. He awaited the boys reply keeping his eyes on the boy at all times.

Xuro was happy that the boy shook his hand. This means that Xuro might make another friend to add to his long and growing list of friends from all different villages. the boy asked Xuro about his clan name, "Bakuton huh? is that some kind of clan?"
Xuro responded, "yes its a clan. I will be the clan leader very soon"
Demetri asked Xuro if he would like to make any rules. Xuro pondered for a few seconds looking at how the boy casually played with his fingers making hand signs.
"Umuummmm... not really... just no killing or dealing major injuries. And we keep this spar and not to get personal and start acting all violent or aggressive... got it?" Xuro said that and waited for Demetri to agree. After that he would turn around and walk about 10 meters away from Demetri and say, "Ok let us begin!"

"Umuummmm... not really... just no killing or dealing major injuries. And we keep this spar and not to get personal and start acting all violent or aggressive... got it? The boy named Xuro had stated about the rules of the spar. "Deal." He replied and the boy walked roughly ten meters away and said "Ok let us Begin!" Demetri waited for him to turn back around and face him before he made a move. He started by running up to the boy, his hands still doing the seals with no chakra applied to them, and swinging his leg in an arc towards the boys mid section hoping to get a hit. as he swung his leg he stopped his hand on a paticular seal and let chakra flow into him. He saw a couple of logs around here that would do good with what he had in mind if the boy countered him.

Demetri had agreed with Xuro's terms of the spar so Xuro walked away from him and got read. He positioned himself in a fighting stance and awaited for Demetri to attack. Demetri came at Xuro running at him. He then swung his leg in an arc to kick Xuro in his mid section. Xuro was ready so he jumped back dodging the kick and then countered by quickly pulling out a kunai from his pouch and threw at Demetri aiming to hit his stomach. "Is that the best you got?!" Xuro joked around trying to get Demetri to play harder and give Xuro a challenge.

Demetri smiled as the boy jumped back and threw a kunai at him saying "Is that the best that you got?!" He knew that the boy was joking around as the kunai hit him in the stomach and a log appeared where he was. Xuro only jumped back enough to dodge the kick and Demetri appeared two inches above and in front of the boy coming down on him with a fist aimed at his head and a leg pulled back for a kick if the boy dodged the punch. "How is this?" Demetri asked the boy in the split second it took for him to appear and to strike. If Xuro dodged the punch then Demetri would swing his leg and hit the boy in the stomach if he dodged the kick the Demetri would land on the ground and come up with and uppercut to the chin. If the uppercut connected the boy would be lifted into the air and fly backwards ten feet and Demetri would use body flicker to appear under the boy with his fist up and the air as the boys back would land on it. This was Demetri's short term plan none of this was set in stone he would have to wait to see what the boy does before anything could be set into action.

Xuro waited to see if his Kunai had hit Demetri. He got happy when he saw it did. But then realizing that Demetri used a replacement technique and popped up in front on top of Xuro aiming to punch him and getting ready for a kick. Xuro was now over joyed. this spar was getting interesting. Looks like the boy has gone all out on Xuro to take him out. And Xuro was really impressed for what Demetri did- using a replacement technique to avoid getting stabbed with a kunai. Xuro thought quickly through his head to think of which way to counter Demetri with. HE could use one of hi knew earth jutsus. Xuro decided to use his Hiding like mole technique. HE quickly disappeared underground. The ground opened up and down he went to evade the attack from Demetri. The ground closed immediately and retained its original shape and look. Xuro then could sense Demetri landing on the ground. He dashed underground to go someone else for a surprise attack on Demetri.

Demetri had been smiling and noticed a smile on Xuro's face as well before he went under gound. "What the hell? what kind of Jutsu is that?" He asked the boy not knowing if he could hear him Demetri waited to see if the boy came out of the ground. Demetri figured that he went down in it so he must only be able to come out of the ground. He listened intently for any sound that would make him think of the ground opening. He also thought that if he just stood there he could come up from under him if thats the way the jutsu worked. Maybe i should run around he thought to him self But then he could hear me. Demetri decided to start running hoping he could make it to a tree before he showed back up.
