A strange Occurance (P, IO, NK)

Hideyoshi had continued to sit in his same position, his body had not moved an inch since he had originally sat down. The mist itself still sat around him for that much he knew, but where Ayumi was he did not know. Replenishing his energy, the shields would continue to move around his body, each one circling his body in a different direction. Inside of his mind he would be having a small conversation with the one who gave him the symbols," What do you think of the situation outside...i have to admit she is good with these technique's although i wonder what she is thinking at the moment," in his mind, his body was sitting in a cave where the only light came from a single lantern. A voice came from beyond the lantern with a small laugh," If it didn't seem like it, you may actually...never mind but keep your guard up just in case. When you cannot see your enemy know that they are somewhere," the voice disappeared as everything went dark inside of his mind as he continued to meditate and gather his energy.

Ayumi was still on top of the branch, looking around so that she could block an incoming attack. When she finally regenerated her chakra, she jumped down to a couple of lower branches and after 3 jumps she was back at the ground. She didn't lose time and created 3 water clones. Facing towards the location they fought, she sent one front to that location, one to 30 degrees left and one to 30 degrees right, they would keep searching until they spotted the black aura. She also walked towards the location they fought behind her clone, keeping a distance of 3 meters between her and the clone to make sure she didn't get attacked first.

It was the clone in front of her that sensed the "Chi" first and soon enough they both saw some black shield circling around Hideyoshi who was just sitting there with his eyes closed. She had to learn the function and the strength of the shield so she made the clone attack him head on. She thought he was still unable to see her from the 4 meter distance real Ayumi was standing on. The other 2 clones also started walking towards Ayumi now, she would need them in the upcoming fight.

Hideyoshi had been almost through with his recharge, although he wouldn't move just yet. Still somewhat unaware of his surroundings until he was through meditating. Now that the time had come his eyes would begin to move just as the clone attacked the shield as it took no damage what so ever. Hideyoshi smiled as he quickly moved and bucked the clone in the center of the gut. The way he did it was by balancing himself on his hands and kicking straight back. Due to the shield he knew where to aim, although it was a bit of a stretch. Cracking his knuckles and popping his neck he would take his fighting stance and wait.

The shields slowly pulsated and disappeared as he tried to look around to see if he could see anything although due to the mist his sight was still fuzzy. Using his other senses he would listen in for any footsteps or even the sound of rustling trees, for if he heard anything he would quickly unleash an attack to see who or what it was.

Ayumi regretted sending one of her clones to waste when the shield started disappearing as Hideyoshi got on his feet. "Seems like he needs meditation to form those shields" , she thought in her head as both her clones walked to Ayumi's right. The mist started to clear up, making them visible in front of Hideyoshi, still 4 meters away. He wouldn't know which one was a clone and which one was not, meaning he would probably need to block/dodge every attack as if it was coming from Ayumi. She thought it would be most predictable if she placed herself in the middle, that's why she had placed her clones to her right.

She proceeded to make her trick somewhat more efficient by talking to Hideyoshi with the clone in the middle: "I will finish this now.", she attacked him with the other clone to his left hoping he would again try to vanish and attack her clone in the middle, leaving him vulnerable. She had to trust these tricks, although she had good self-confidence, by the impressions so far she thought she wouldn't have a chance in head-on combats against him objectively.

The mist finally started to disperse as he saw three Ayumi's standing there approximately 4 meters from him. Smiling he would walk from behind the bushes and smile," I have to admit you are very smart to pull of that mist and these clones...," giving her a smile as he looked at the clones closely. One of them could be her or all of them just be clones. Feeling like taking a chance he would wait until the first clone came at him, and moved to the left a single foot before sending his palm directly into its stomach. From there he would look at the last two remaining and smile," i have only one way to find out which one is which, i just hope you do not get mad at me for this," as he ran full speed past both of the clones and stopped behind them. Reaching between each of their arms his hands would grope their chest.

His theory was one would disappear and the other would either fall from embarrassment or turn around and start beating the shit out of him. It was one of many ways to find out exactly who was who. As he continued to fondle her he would wait to see what results his unorthodox attack would bring.

Ayumi had a million thoughts about how he would react as her clone was coming closer to Hideyoshi. He swiftly counter-attacked the clone and she felt him suddenly dashing near her when he suddenly did something Ayumi didn't expect at all, and she expected a lot of stuff.

Her eyes opened wide and she flew of the handle when she felt his hand reach under her arm and grope her chest. She was really pissed, how would he do such a thing, even worse during a spar, she was furious not only because of his groping but also because she thought he was not taking her seriously. She was very angry and it could be easily read from her face that she turned to him as soon as she felt his hand but she used her last bit of calmness and very quickly formed 8 hand seals back to back. "Suirō no Jutsu!"

She also quickly took a step away from him to let go from his grip and started creating a water prison from her right arm he reached between. She was very angry but she couldn't miss her best chance to trap him, that was what she worked for since she created the mist. Scolding and beating him into a pulp could wait for just a couple more seconds.

Hideyoshi felt bad about what he did, not knowing how to properly tell the difference between clones he did the only thing he thought would help, which it did but now it seemed the lion was out of the cage. Watching as she moved away, he would be caught in a prison of water, that of which he let her catch him. He knew what was going to come next so while he was encaged by the prison he would look up at her," Ayumi...i am sorry for my rash actions. i don't know how to truly differenciate clones from the host so...i did the only thing that would show signs it was you. I know it was a perverted and ignorant thing to do so i am willing to make it up to you, dinner on me??," sitting down in the prison calm and collected as he waited for her response.

If she still decided to beat the crap out of him he would accept that as well, either way he had fun sparring with her even though his life.

She held Hideyoshi in the prison for a while to clear her mind, she did not speak even once and just listened. What he did was unacceptable and his excuse was not convincing although his face didn't look like he was lying. He was that desperate against clones? That just did not make sense to Ayumi. No, it did not matter even if he was honest there was no way she could just forgive him like that and go to dinner with him?! Ayumi pulled an explosive tag out of her pouch with her left arm, threw it into the water and jumped back. She took her right arm off the prison and made the tag explode 2 seconds after she jumped, she didn't want to kill him or injure him too badly because she, for some reason she hasn't fully understood, had other plans. After the explosion she didn't bother to look back, turned around and started walking away from the training ground. As she walked slowly, she said "Meet me here at this time tomorrow if you were serious about that dinner." and went home.

Hideyoshi was now getting a little impatient but at least she wasn't going to kill him until he saw her pull out an explosive tag," Son of a-," quickly the symbols began to come alive and glow black and blue," Come to this plane...Corbinek," his gaining an ominous blue and black aura. Once her arm was clear of the water, his body instantly vanished from that point backwards about 10 meters as he skidded to a stop as the explosion went off, as he listened to the girl he would smile," Damn shes crazy...gotta love a crazy chick," laughing to himself as his cloak fell to his feet. Throwing it back on and deactivating the symbols he would jump into the trees and disappear.
