Unloading and new path

While Mitako's right arm was about as useful as a potato, the chakra cloak still made up for his lackey arm. It could move around the same speed and hit with more force. Although Hysterio's attack had hit, once Mitako had hit the ground, he would quickly roll onto his side and hop back up to his feet dropping the kunai into the sand, and going after Hysterio again. Then, so long as Hysterio was within 20 meters (which was more than likely), Mitako would swing his arm and expand the red chakra around his it forward in an attempt to actually pack a bit of a punch into something.

Cael would land next to Youta who remained in place, watching the exchange between the two genin. She was ready to jump in at any moment if this got out of hand, but so far she was more interested in Mitako's strange power and Hysterio's ability to defend against it, than in her own excitement for a fight. Both of her ninjatos were in her hands though, but she and the dragon would keep their short distance of about ten meters.

It was starting to come together, Hysterio like all the good kids his age had read up on their history and remembered that Naruto Uzumaki had often been surrounded by a cloak of what looked like pure chakra, that sometimes acted on its own seemingly. At first it only appeared during emotional moments, but later he was able to get control of it. Hmmm... He watched Mitako rolling on the sand, after Hysterio had swiped his stick at Mitako, and mentally started comparing Mitako to the young Naruto.

Emotional? Apparently so, judging by his expression. Check…?

Weird cloak thingy unlikely to be anything except chakra? Check?

Reckless? Check.

Hysterio watched as Mitako got to his feet, a part of the chakra branching off to perform its own attack.

Malevolent Aura reminiscent of when Hysterio had seen a nine tailed beast wandering Kumogakure?

…

Check.

Hysterio could not know for sure but so far Mitako looked like he was a tailed beast host, not that Hysterio knew much else about them.

So how could he get more for his village? He needed to be stronger. So far, he knew his leader liked weapons, and Youta, a young girl barely older than him and already Mitako’s Sensei, demonstrated a clear gap in battle experience at close range likely gained from experience with weapons. If the Tailed Beasts were as strong as he had heard they were, he would need to be able to handle close range combat as well. Even Takeo Tadashi had demonstrated blistering speeds Hysterio could not comprehend except in hind sight, and even then only partially, in a bewildered fashion. Yes, he needed to get better at fighting. For now he would leave his study of Genjutsu and start trying to hone his body more, to enable weaponry techniques that would make him stronger and better able to combat those beasts.

He was not foolish enough to assume he could handle a Tailed Beast if he could not even handle those only a little older than himself. No, before he hunted any beasts, he would need to get strong enough that his leader would recognize him in some fashion. The ability to seal those beasts into something would also be nice.

As Mitako’s kunai dropped to the ground and he got up, ignoring his wound and his lost knife, Hysterio started paying more attention, curious to see what he was up to. As Mitako swung at Hysterio with his fist, Hysterio swung his stick out horizontally again to block, as Mitako suddenly expanded the cloak of chakra around his arm. If Mitako did not change his trajectory, Hsyterio’s stick would resonated with the force, the chakra from the arm had moved faster and hit harder than Mitako himself did, though fortunately Hysterio was fairly certain he was stronger, for the moment anyway.

[Ok I apologize, this ones pretty damn short, just knock me out in the next post. I didn't mean to send the pm twice either, but yea things got worse.]

Ok so basically Mitako is freaking the fuck out, and he continues chasing after Hysterio, like a guard dog chasing a mailman.

[I'll post after Hyst]

Hysterio was surprised when his blow knocked out Mitako. "..." He stood watching the boy for a few moments. "I... did not think I hit him that hard." He turned to face Youta. "Has he always been like that in training? I only ever trained jutsu with him, never actual combat, so it could just be me but he seemed a little... wierd."

He paused long enough for Mitako's sensei to speak. If she spoke, he would listen, and then regardless of whether she spoke, he would say "I am sorely in need of battle experience I am afraid. Would you do me the honor of another spar?"

Youta would make something like a long face, as she saw Mitako get knocked out. Of course, she was fast enough to prevent it, if she wanted to, but was it was happening, she thought he could handle it by himself, given everything he has shown so far. So it was quite surprising when it happened. As his cloak dissipated the girl would walk up to the collapsed body, while listening to Hysterio's words; Cael followed. She would then squat down, touching his neck and then forehead; Cael would sniff him. Well, the genin wasn't smacked in the head too much, so he would probably wake up in an hour or two. Obviously he got too reckless in his assault. "This is what happens when you give in to your power, instead of wielding it." it was the rare occasion that Cael had chosen to speak. His voice was soft, but deep, like the blue of his scales. He would make something like a smirk and then be silent again. "He'll be fine." Youta would state. At the moment she was wondering what kind of power it was that her student used before he got knocked out. Hearing Hysterio's requests she would pick up Mitako and then reply. "I would love to continue our fight, but right now I think I should unload him at a hospital, because he might be in need of attention that I'm not aware of." She would start walking, the dragon would glance at the standing genin once more, before turning around and following his master. "You're welcome to accompany me and we can spar afterwards, or we can do it later."

Then she would leave the scene and get Mitako to a hospital. Cael followed her for a while, then took off and flew away somewhere. Maybe he was bored and did not see anything exciting up ahead. He'll probably go hunting, fish or something; maybe diving, this was an island in the middle of the sea after all. Youta wasn't worried about the dragon. After explaining what happened and entrusting her student to the hospital staff, she would get back to this spar thing. Provided that Hysterio came along.

“Yeah, you are right. I thought I had not hit him very hard, but you never know. He has some strange abilities doesn’t he.”
 
Hysterio was going to follow Youta in a second or such but he first needed to try something else out. He had gotten a fair amount of practice using his weapons now, but he wanted to try out a specific weapon based attack. He activated his chakra infusion skill, and concentrated. Swinging his stick he attempted to launch the chakra around his blade. He almost succeeded but the technique was not very powerful. He needed something stronger as the base, he guessed.
 
He walked back to where he had left the little island of dirt near where they had been training. Using the Moving Earth Core jutsu he re-set the ground, and walked over. Picking up his items, he picked up a Vibro Blade after strapping the rest of his equipment back to his body. Holding the Vibro blade, he adopted a fighting stance, and activated the Chakra Infusion skill. A glow faintly surrounded his blade. Grimacing from the effort, he swung his sword and arm as one, aiming for a tree. Some of the chakra flew off, and cut cleanly through a tree branch, but he had not launched a full size attack. Getting that would take time unfortunately.
 
He sheathed his sword and analyzed his actions. This kind of attack would be more useful, since he would potentially run out of senbon to throw at people. He walked off towards the hospital, hopefully he would get there before Youta left.
