A nice day for a Spar! (IO)

(Well this is a suprise. The guy liner makes its appearanc!)

Mitako could smell it in the air.... the guy liner that totally screamed, "I'm fucking straight dammit." Xyxer had appeared. Reacting in a totally normal manner, Mitako spasmed on the ground in a quick burst of fear. Not only was Xyxer's arrival unnanounced, it was completely out of the blue and unexpected. He listened to his leader's words, and decided all was safe. For now at least. 

A chuunin exam, which consisted of four genin... one of which was on part with Youta. Mitako responded to Hysterio with, "Gimme a second." He then trotted over to the twins and inspected both of them, he grabbed one, the smarter one it seemed, the one that stayed away from xyxer, and looked him deeply in the eyes. He then poked this twin in the arms and chest, deciding that they were both likely new to the ninja world... meaning that Mitako was the most experienced on his team. He sighed, knowing that odds were in Hysterio's favor. 

"Alright listen up," he commanded attention from the airhead, and said to both of them "just back me up on this one." He turned to face Hysterio, and checked his gear. His katana was in good shape, but since he had no desire to kill Hysterio, it was unlikely to be used. He threw it, and it's sheath off to the side. 

Next he inspected the soil... which was sandy, but he didn't know if it would work with his bijuu... speaking of, he had learned to keep himself under control while in the first state, at least for the most part. 

"Ready when they are Hysterio." He pointed to the twins. 

(Hysterio, the sand is up to you or whoever.)

Xyxer smiled towards the genin that had just informed him of the rumours surrounding him. "I have a cursed touch, young one. If we are to shake, it'll surely be perilous for one of our parties." Keeping his eyes focused on the boy for a moment before he turned to look at all of them, "If there's no blood, I'll be sorely disappointed. Fight for your lives, you don't know if the opposing side intends to simply win, or to obliterate." He allowed a few moments for the words to sink in before he spoke once more, "Begin."

[You can skip me from now on, I'm going to assume you guys won't throw kunai at me or something crazy like that]

(time for some character development I see)

For some reason the thought of drawing blood excited Hysterio. His mouth behind the armour began to open into a feral grin, though only his eyes were visible behind the panes of his armour, they shone with an inner light hinting at a sadistic or quite possibly evil persona lurking deep within the nerdy kid’s mind. Heck, his Yuumei, which had been previously chanting and slathering at the mouth for blood took a step back. Woah. That’s a bit much dude. You know they are your allies right?

Hysterio paid him no mind. Tossing the sticks far away through the window of a third story building, he drew three kunai from his weapon pouches into each hand, holding them between his four normal fingers like claws of a sort. His mouth was set in a rictus grin, and he was only half aware of his surroundings, the rest of him going into some kind of battle mode. Perhaps he was thinking of murdering the bullies from school. Who knows.

“Bring it.” His voice had taken on a menacing tone far different from his normal attitude, even the Mizukage who might or might not be paying attention might notice.

segri nodded and grinned at the kage noticing him as neku glared at the snobby boy who dared poke them in the chest. the grovling spasiming boy dared to touch us? neku thought as the boy explained the plan and shook his head and shrugged his shoulder, "so your tellling me you are capeable f handing him or remotely handling him? from what i can tell i see three outcomes, 1 you will lose since you are not in no mental state to fight, 2 you will lose because despite a senority member of the village is here you cant focus so you lose., 3 you will only win when whatever is bogging you down is taken care of? you hope to win? our kage is expecting a good fight and your spasming will only enable him to take advantage of you. sorry but unless you see it that your fit to lead you must lead yourself first. before you assume you can keep a lead prove it to us otherwise by your actions and we will determin" at that neku would seperate himself from his brothers body and in his own flaring red robes he nodds at hysterio.

Segri wouldve been silent for awhile and listening to his brother nodding when he was finished and speaking up "yes lord xyxer is here and its an honor to showcase our abilities and strengths but neku is right. despite what incures shall it be our own destruction before our eyes as we march into oblivion, or the fall or our home and breaking of our pride we will keep fighting, this is a test of wills and learning what xyxer said was not only applied to hyst and us only but to all of us as one unit." segri would gaze at the boy and his face went blank as he spoke up again "do you truely see yourself fit to leading in this condition you are in? you are stronger then us yes but you also show that your mind is weak and unfit to lead but follow. i dont care how strong you are or what you can do but unless you stop assuming that you can beat him and actually take account of your own strengths and adress your weaknesses your blood spill will be in vain." With that segri would look over at hysterio and nodd like his brother before flashing a grin.

"either way what shall we start with?!" segri exclaimed as he was ready to start the test. neku quietly observed the boy hysterio and his temples started pounding as he noted the unusualness of the situaltion, just how strong is this guy if hes going against the numbers? me and segri are not that powerful but why only him? neku thought as he observed hysterio noting every detail about him.

Mitako squinted at the snobby twin... "Listen here you little shit" which was weird they were probably the same age, "I can run circles around you, and he can run circles ar-" Mitako could feel the beast tugging at his ear, "gah! Fuck you!" He then gripped at his katana, before realizing that he had thrown it off to the side. Mitako took a breath, realizing it may have been a bad idea to cut him down. He did need his help after all...

Mitako stared the polite twin in the face, "Ok.... listen. I have taken account of my own strength, and I know that I can't beat him." He gripped the twins shoulders, "even together we can't beat him." At this point he heard Hysterio say "bring it" and that was enough. 

Mitako turned to see Hysterio with three kunai gripped, and vastly different look in his eyes through the armor. The animalistic killing instinct that Mitako knew of, but didn't yet have the power to act with. Hysterio had the power. 

Mitako yanked the only kunai he had from his belt and tossed it at Hysterio. He didn't take into account that it was probably gonna plink off of Hysterio's armor... 

Whether it did in fact plink off, or was avoided, Mitako ran to the left (30 speed) and pointed with his right hand, to tell the twins to go right. 

While this happened, his eyes slowly began to darken, while his pupils had a slight yellow tint. 

[No actions used yet, - 1 kunai.]

Hysterio slowly began approaching, his rage building as the others seemed to be ignoring him. His voice was ice cold, as he spoke briefly and tersely. “He said begin.  Don’t make me wait.”

At this time Mitako turned and threw a kunai at Hysterio. This was a decent attempt at a sneak attack but Hysterio could see the attack coming from all of 12 meters away, and his ability to react was much greater than the speed of the oncoming missile. Holding the kunai in his right hand, he swung the blades so that they would intercept the thrown kunai that Mitako had hurled, the blades of his kunai hitting the other kunai from the side such that the blade of the thrown kunai would not make contact with him or his equipment, and as such Mitako’s kunai was effectively a blunt object. Deflecting and launching it, he sent the kunai flying away much more quickly to stick in a wall of a building, quivering in the hole it had forced itself into. “Oops.”

He was getting angry, he might start toying with his opponents just to make them suffer. Why? Either because they made him wait a few more seconds while they argued among themselves, making him believe they did not take him seriously, or perhaps because he thought it might be fun. A creepy leer almost made the armour he was wearing wilt except that it was too high health. Any normal armour might have melted under the intensity of his grin.

Immediately after deflecting the kunai Mitako had hurled, Hysterio threw the kunai in his hands, all 6 of them, at the twins who had just separated. Interesting ability, that. The kunai were aimed in trios at each of the two twins, at rather fast speeds. Each twin had a kunai aimed at the right shoulder, which Hysterio assumed to be the dominant hand, and which if hit and not resisted would likely separate the arm from the shoulder or at least severely hamper the muscles. Meanwhile, the other two of each trio of kunai that Hysterio flung, were aiming at the hamstrings of the twins. In short, he would disable their quads, and the front sections of their shoulders if the kunai landed.

Noticing Mitako running to the left, or Hysterio’s right, Hysterio got a bead on Mitako’s speed as he drew more 2 kunai, one in each hand. Using the Moving Earth Core technique, he raised the ground just on front of Mitako so that he would trip, being unable to see it most likely and unlikely to change his step, over a 40 cm tall, 40 cm deep, and 2 meter wide bump aligned to have the longest side facing him perpendicularly. Assuming Mitako tripped, as this would be hard to avoid, Hysterio would run over, and if Mitako was still on the ground, he would slash at Mitako’s arms and legs, aiming to keep him from running away. Everything except the last bit from Hysterio running over, would happen quite quickly.

the twins looked a bit astonished as the boy hysterio tossed several kunai at each of the with a glum look neku took note of the diffrence in skill yeah he is that strong of course he thought as he turned to the left and the six kunai sailed past him as he hopped back a bit however one did graze his shoulder as segri barely could dodge the knives as three brushed his knee and drew blood as segri hissed in pain "ow!" each kunai wizzed past the twins though as segri stumbled a bit from the pain as his tolerance wasnt the best, neku however decided that it would be against his better judgement to atttack now as he observed the two fighters fight while segri grimanced and grumbled as he reluctently observed the other two for any weaknesses and patterns they needed to gather infomation about their opponent and jutduging the speed and power of the one guy they needed pacients as for they were not useless well were as they had barely any knowledge to techniques but took this as they had the advantage in their numbers. yet neku stole a glance at the other boy as he seemed a tab it diffrent well to another perhaps the same but a sort of agressiveness was comming from him.

As Mitako fell into the sandy soil, he activated the hiding like a mole technique and went with the momentum, diving under the ground. He sought out the twins, and would re-emerge next to them, popping out of the ground. By now, he was panting, not of fatigue, but of some o dat sweet savory anger. He gripped his right palm, touching his chakra cannon, which would be hidden to Hysterio, since Mitako was the only one that knew it was implanted. At this point, the twins were no longer of Mitako's concern. 

If they wanted to get hurt let 'em, but Mitako only intended to move if he had too. The whites of his eyes would be pitch black by now, an effect of the Bijuu chakra. Any second now, the cloak would form, and he was ready for it.

[Hiding like a mole technique - x AP
total AP = x
I'll add it up in a bit. Too lazy at the moment.]

(good move Mitako :P)
 
Hysterio watched carefully. Interesting tactics, that Mitako. It looked like they were too wily for long distance combat to work. Worst case scenario he could summon but he felt that Xyxer intended this to be a test of his own abilities, not that of his friends. He could tell by the speed that the others were much slower than him. Mitako was faster than before, but really… “Is that all you got? Come attack me, pitiful fools!!!” Hysterio growled loudly at the opponents, as he reached down and grabbed another rock, keeping his eyes on them the entire time. Unless they could stop him, he would grow another rock section cane, making it 2 meters long, and one and a half inches thick, just the right size to fit in one or both hands comfortably. Perhaps this time he would sharpen it when the time came. Their futile resistance irritated him, could they not sense the vast difference in power? “Time to work on my specialty. Swordsplay.”
 
Glancing at the stick he briefly covered it in Yuumei before shutting it off to the protests of his own Yuumei personality. His own Yuumei wanted to have a training session at the same time as Hysterio’s physical fight but he was going to have none of it. Annoyed, the Yuumei settled back to watch Hysterio handle things himself, telling him he should have trained a different variant meant for hand to hand combat instead of for a genjutsu series he would forget anyway. Hysterio ignored the Yuumei, this was a conversation for later, right now he neded to focus.
 
Unless stopped in the formation of the rock section cane, which would be potentially hard due to the twins’ distance, Hysterio would start advancing towards them again.

the twins gazed at the boy as he attempted to cox them into attacking him and they smiled back in usision the sunlight glitening off their teeth as there was a slight twinkle as well for additional effect.  both in thought glanced at each other and chuckled in thought at the same time with the same exact thought.we merely mock you by us standing here thoes words are nothing but air wasted when we can cod you into our own game as you are irritated and seek something. your test will begin now on our own terms. think you are grand when you are taking this seriously! your own hunger for approval blinds you Then the twins noted as the boy appeared to make a rock into a long pole. well to segri he mentally said to himself and unknowingly to him neku said the same thing wow.. really a stick.... however their reactions were diffrent as segri showed interest and his right eye brow raised in an impressed manner, neku meanwhile raised the other brow sizing up the staff and hysterio in a comical toon in his mind of segri ripping the staff ftom him and beating him over the head with it. yet both of the twins were thourghly impressed with the boy as they nodded their head with approval. however more earth magic tricks would occur as the other boy looking psycotic and a bit of a danger to almost everyone except the mizu was in the fray as he popped up with a wild gleam in his eye not like that of a person winning the jackpot in their eye but more so on the lock them in a seal so that they can think about their life sorts of gleam. it was off setting that made the twins glance over at the boy and step a few meters to the side.

segri however nodded at the other boy as he noticed the diffrence in skill and took the time to learn a thing or two. well if this is a test ill need neku to take par and do his work as well. segri would look over at the other boy out of the corner of his eye and take note. he looks like he needs to blow steam so how about i wait till he goes off the chain. if i am right of course unless its and act which he is also not fit to be even in this world. but at that note use him as my way to take advantage of the situation. if that were to work out neku could keep him busy in a tri pincher attack making the other boy use whatever means he has up his sleeves, lest he be faster but manipulating the odds in our favor is me and nekus specialty as using the other boy as an attack and sort of defense via focus we can keep a tiny liver of pressure on him that while he may ignore us he will take note of the otehr boy. it is in this point we inhibit his focus further  with disabling tactics segri grinned as he took a low crouch and knelt with a smile a rather feindish smile that was.

Neku on the other hand was well within analysing his chances and possibilities to attack while not as battle sense oriented as segri neku had a rather keen sense of using his speed to gather information as he noted his brothers smile and looked back at the boy hysterio. thinking to himself yes he obiiously is much faster due to the kunai im surprised he could throw them that fast but too much speed is often a downfall to thoes who pride themselves, the truth remains that me and segri are inexperienced but we will pick up the pace. perhaps today the tables will turn on this boy. i see that segri is going to take advantage of whatever he gets and jab a knife into it so i assume that i will have to take the lead after the maniac at hand, but like anything things fall when enough pressure is done and although numbers would say our chances become slimmer and slimmer by the moment and he is picking up our motives the desperato tactic may infact work as what titan doesnt ignore the weak and the lamb at hand? alltogether though ill have to take the lead. perhaps if we disable him and stick to the inhibiting techniques we can weave a pattern of offensive/defensive patterns, but slowly shift our attacts to more inhibiting techniques and force him to move the way we want. yes thats the way to even this out! Neku finished his thought and smiled the same smile as segri shaking as he chuckles before taking a step forward.

Nekus steps would double as he turns them into a brisk walk and and into a slow jog as he aimed to run past the figure of hysterio veering off about 5 meters to not intend a head on clash at a built up speed of 18 this however was an attempt to catch his eye as he would do so and start running towards the left and onpurposly trip on his own feet with an attempt to be clumsy, segri on the other hand if hysterio would take notice of segri would follow suit in a much slower variation since he was indeed much slower but will jog at a speed of 5 slowing down to a stop facing draconis and staring him into the eye with a big grin as an attempt to grab his attention. should this work he would nodd at hysterio at which neku would run back towards the other boy should hysterio had done nothing to that point at a speed of 1 walk a half circle around him towards his brother.
