A completely normal day [P,NK]

Whoops, seems Takeo underestimated the strength of the bones. Likely because they looked extremely brittle, possibly because of the lack of milk Haru drunk. His speed was of course higher than that of Haru's. He felt the bone's press hard against his armour, it holding for a brief moment before it gave way. This brief moment gave Takeo enough time to react accordingly, his body disappearing as he substituted himself was a boulder. The boulder had been off to the right, conveniently placed for such occasions. Of course because of said substitution neither the kunai or sword came anywhere close to where Haru's body actually was, allowing the man to heal his wounds once more. Takeo looked down, it seemed his armour had been dented somewhat. Closer inspection told him that the bones had actually pierced through it slightly, enough to draw blood. Of course the wound was extremely shallow, nothing too serious thankfully. It seemed even Herculean type men such as himself could still be injured by fat balding blokes like Haru. Takeo's eyes changed form immediately, his Sharingan and Byakugan both being activate within seconds. During this time he tossed his kunai towards Haru's chest, simply to pass the time. The kunai went at a speed of like 235 or something like that.

Haru watched Takeo fumble helplessly, being forced to use a substitution jutsu to escape. What a puss, thinking he’d be manly and take the hit, then running away at the first sign that it might hurt a little. The boy threw a kunai aimed for Haru’s chest, which Haru lazily leaned to the side to dodge, the kunai flying rather pathetically slow thanks to Takeo’s weak arms. Haru would then swing his right hand hard in a sort of scratching motion in Takeo’s direction. To the untrained eye, it would look like he was swatting a fly that was obstructing Takeo’s view of Haru’s wonderful abs, while in reality, he was shooting five finger bullets at Takeo’s distended belly. Haru did the same with the other hand. At the same time, Haru created four incredibly handsome copies of himself from the mud puddle Takeo had fallen pathetically into earlier. Said clones would move towards Takeo, each drawing a bone sword in each hand via pulling from their arms. One clone would dash directly to Takeo’s front, while two of the others circled around his side (One clone takes the left, the other takes the right) The final clone would jump over the first, aiming to stab Takeo from above with a bone sword to his face. Each other clone would aim a slash with their right sword at Takeo’s waist, aiming to cut him in two.

It seemed Haru was unable to do anything about Takeo's mad dodging skills. Except for try and shoot some more of his disgusting rotting bones from his fingers. Takeo took note that they were aimed towards his magnificent toned torso. He understood that he would be able to tank the bones with such ease, but he didn't want to risk the chance of being diseased by something that came from Haru. Thus he simply stepped gracefully to the left, the bones sailing past him and thudding into some innocent bystander. Then Haru created some copies of himself. What was disturbing was that even though they were created from mud, they actually looked cleaner than Haru himself did. It was then that he felt pain hitting his body. The seal in the right glove of his armour deactivated, and his speed and chakra both dropped. The drop itself wasn't that big, though the pain that hit him was quite annoying. Another strange incident with the clones occurred, they pulled bones from their arms. Takeo did a double take, clones made completely of mud possessed the ability to create bones? How strange. Whatever the case, it seemed that the clones possessed the same fighting ability as Haru, meaning they sucked. As they approached Takeo simply stood there, still slightly reeling from the sudden pain he experienced. Though all he had to do was spin around as the tried to attack him, his lightning blades having been extending the entire time. So yeah they tried to attack him only to be eviscerated as Takeo did a 360 slice the clones up no scope blade shot.

Takeo dodged the bones, which sailed past him and thudded into someone standing by and watching, probably Takeo’s mother. Nah, they hit a tree. Haru noticed Takeo doing a double take, no doubt impressed by his incredible skills in battle. He would allow most of the clones to be destroyed, as they were mostly for the sake of stalling while Haru recovered from the loss of his boosted abilities by infatuating Takeo, which had worked quite well, as the double take Takeo had taken. Sadly for Takeo, the 360 degree slice that he had preformed would only be able to deal with the clones on the ground, while the airborne clone would continue, untouched by the boy’s attack. Perhaps he had not seen him during all the commotion of being distracted by the beautiful clones. The bone weapon of the airborne one would crash into Takeo’s helmet, and luckily for Takeo, it was not enough to pierce the armor. However, the armor would only be able to stop the cutting power of the blade, the force of the attack could still travel through the armor to Takeo’s body, and the force behind it was probably enough to give him a concussion, in his weakened state that Redan left him in. After smacking the bone sword against Takeo’s armor, the clone would dissipate, soaking Takeo in the mud that made up the clone.

So it seemed in his awe at his own reflection in the mud below him he had failed to destroy one of the clones. He felt a tap against his helmet, one which made him sort of tilt of balance for a moment. Redan was still active though, at least for a little while longer. Perhaps it was time to end the fight while Haru was busy messing about in the mud. The clone returned to it's first form, the mud falling down in front of Takeo as he simply moved back to avoid staining his pristine armour. With his armour boost no longer active all the Chuunin now had was a mere 320 speed. However he assumed it would still be enough end this fight with. A burst of speed was all it took to cross the distance between him and Haru. His right hand swung down, the blades from his fingertips poised to slice clean through the boy's left shoulder. From the angle of the slash, it was entirely possible that the arm could be cleanly sliced off if no adjustments were made on either person's part.

Haru would feel a bit disappointed as Takeo staggered, but did not fall, from the attack of the clone. Apparently he hadn’t turned off Redan after all, and was determined to win with stats. As soon as Haru saw that the clone’s attack was ineffective, Haru would use a Taijutsu Shunshin, combined with the last of the strength from his chakra enhanced strength, to boost his speed to about the level Takeo was bsing. He would dash to his left with this boosted speed, moving straight across the plains in order to get out of range, since Takeo was most likely only going to use those stupid blades of his if he stayed in range.

Takeo watched as Haru shunshined himself into a wall. At least he would have, if not for the fact that vague manipulation was banned.

Takeo watched as Haru tried to match his level of manliness with speed. Unfortunately the boy did not come even close to matching him. Knowing that soon Redan would wear off and the after effects would begin Takeo decided it was time to get somewhat serious. Yes, of course he would hold back when fighting Haru. He after all was not one to go all out against small children. If he had wanted, he could have ended the battle before it had even begun. However Takeo was not one to do that. The Chuunin decided, to simply follow after where Haru moved. His crimson eye bore into the skull of Haru's. If Haru were to look him in the eyes, he would likely die from the sheer power of Takeo's glare. So yeah he runs up and slices him.

Haru watched as Takeo sliced some some random onlooker with his blades. Or at least he would have, if not for the fact that vague manip was banned


Haru, sick of being told to post, would begin to slow as his shunshin ended. He would come to a stop as Takeo's blade attacked him at the back. The slice itself, being a slice and not a slash. (A slice is placing a blade on something and pulling it across to cut) wouldn't do much damage, nothing that couldn't be healed with Creation Rebirth. However, the irritating stun effect would leave Haru standing there. The guy narrating for him would then return to real life, where he can't be interrupted.

And with that victory was his. Takeo wasn't that surprised that he had won the moment he had taken the fight seriously. After all, it wasn't like the boy was in the same league as him. Takeo did have to admit however, he wasn't that bad. Takeo wouldn't want to fight alongside him, seeing how he would constantly have to look out for him, but he was competent enough. A small shove into the boy's back sent the paralyzed body crashing into the mud. The joy of victory would be short lived however. It was at this moment that Redan deactivated. The adrenaline of battle faded and the pain once more assaulted him. For the first time in awhile Takeo felt weakened. His strength left him and he dropped to his knees. Gritting his teeth together it took much of his willpower in order to not cry out from the pain. Of course he would not do that, it would show a sign of weakness. He pressed the left glove of his armour, which soon moved back into it's normal glove form.

He glanced over towards Haru and a frown graced his features, surprising considering the pain he was in. To think that he had been pushed to the limits be a lower being such as him. It disgusted Takeo honestly. Had he grown weaker? No that couldn't be it. Maybe it was simply everyone around him had grown stronger. Had Takeo hit his limit, would he go no further? The mere thought of his strength being at a standstill sickened him. The thought of being surpassed by people like that disgusted him. He was snapped from his thoughts when he felt raindrop splatter on his face. He glanced upwards as the sky opened up, letting the rain fall from the heavens. "Tch, this is hardly a victory." He muttered before turning and heading home.
