Within the forest, The spirit roars

The forest...It had been quite a while since he had first stepped into these hidden walls since he had last stepped foot into this place. His steps were silent and few in number as he walked past a few trees into a small clearing and looked about it with wide eyes, the place he used to train by himself and the area in which he had his last bout with his first student. Running his hand across a single tree he could feel the memories of training against it from months and even years past flowing through his finger tips like a small flowing water stream. The smile soon faded as he released his small touch on the tree and sighed, reaching back into his pouch and putting on a single pair of gauntlets which at this point looked like vambraces that covered from the beginnings of his knuckles to his wrists. Wearing what appeared to be Anbu style armor, he was ready for a fight oddly as if his instinct were rearing for something....new. Within his mind the area in which he and Corbinek spoke played while he looked around, the forest being completely silent he would be able to hear what all had been going on to the smallest of details," Its been a while since our last all out fight hasn't it? Not since the fight with Kenzo have you been challenge so what brought you out here?," the voice rung unto him which only a smile appeared on his face before stretching," Its simple partner...I want to feel what it was like to be back in those days when i fought with my friends...those that had stood beside me as comrades...All of them...Samaruo...Kenzo...Senba even Raiku are all gone. I have no one in a position of power to fight and so this is the perfect place to reminiscence now isn't it?," speaking lowly on the outside it was all he could do at the moment...But why had the fighting beast within Hideyoshi grasp for a chance to fight once more?

Stein would be not far off from the wandering one, but Stein did not care at this point, he was out with his newest Creation, Shigure, he was out teaching her the Basic's and teaching her about Medical Ninjutsu. "Shigure, Pay attention, Now when I throw a thread your way, I want you to use Subsitution tech" and with that Stein raised an Arm and shot a thread at Shigure.

Shigure had been nodding off the entire talk from her creator, until the thread started to move through the air towards her, at that point her mind scrambled about what to do, but her hands were already together, and with a quick succession of hand seals, she Barely got the log Stein placed next to her to take the thread instead of her. A sigh left her mouth as a bead of sweat rolled down her face.

Stein would shake his head and send her off to do Push ups or something, he was getting tired of her not listening, but one day she would listen to him, When his teachings saves her life she will remember and thank him then and listen better, till Then, Stein's Ears were trained and opened as he listened to everything around him, more so keeping them open for the chance of a ambush.

Stein worse his Outfit, a black Shirt under a white lab coat, black pants and shoes, his white hair, and glasses, stitches across everything just about, skin, cloths, everything, except his hair and glasses of course, a Mask hung to his side. Shigure was a Woman, dressed in a Pink Ninja Gi, with netted stockings up her legs, her breasts held up by the Gi even though it was not needed, Netted undershirt as well, with netted gloves, all the nets were black, to help counter the pink of her Gi, her long black hair up in a pony tail, and her eyebrows appeared to be like lightning bolts.

Shigure listened to Her creator as she went off to do some normal push ups, Stein did not like it when she did the handstand push ups, said it revealed her supple accessories and he did not want to see them, but assured her any man would be lucky to do so, although she was new to this world, she had the basic understandings and workings down already from her lessons with her creator.

" I see...So you've become quite the figure since i've met you, once a boy that wanted power is now learning how to grab it while dealing with his own loneliness and despair...But be warned if you delve to deep into that despair you'll eventually drive us down an improper path," with that small pretense of advice, the voice slipped away into his mind leaving him with one simple question- why? Shaking his head of all thoughts he wondered what the forest had kept from him in its throes, the forest itself held so many secrets and conversations that he didn't know how to contain them all. If he were a senju he'd be in love with the forest and marry it though luckily for him the earth only provided him with nutrition and a home.

As he continued to walk across the line of trees in silence he could hear it... a voice not far from him. He wasn't aware of anyone coming into the forest, so maybe he had missed them? Either way he begin his trek through the small clearing until stopping a mere five meters to the right of the male behind a bush and observed him in silence, of course after his woman had left him. After only a few moments of observing he had remembered an individual had killed a konoha shinobi and even attacked a few others. Of course all they had was a simple description of the rouge ninja and he fit it perfectly.

It was all he needed...A target that would ignite his fire yet...how would he stand up to him? Forgetting that he held up his right hand in silence and aimed his index finger at the male which to some would be just foolish, yet his bloodline made his deadly. Stepping from the shadows he looked onward at the male with a smile on his face before chuckling," How ironic to find a criminal in the place he committed his crime...Maybe you will serve as the rekindling of my spirit, now turn and face me!," his declaration of war stated he waited for this man to turn...then the fight would begin.

Stein turned to face the voice that spoke to him and he announced out " The Kid put a sword to my throat, so I feel no crime was commited, just self defense" That was the one thing he was most accused for, so he did not mention about the two people he stole from, although they were both dead was besides the point, he only had the hand in killing one in self defense, the other he just mutilated the body.

Stein stood there as he waited, about five meters away from where the new person he never met before stood, he tilted his head and said "Well if you know who I am tho, no sense in introducing myself, now, what about you?" Stein tilted his head up, his eyes still on the kid, but his glasses gleamed with light, nothing blinding to anyone, it was just how the light hit the glasses, made it harder to look at his eyes like this though, and a small smirk across his face.

Meanwhile Shigure stopped her exercising as she watched the two, She was going to use this as a chance to learn what she could from the two, She would however jump up into the tree, staying about thirty Meter's away, as she did not intend to interfere at this point, just learn, silently.

"No excuse to kill the kid, could have incapacitated him or went another route, but the pasts the past now isn't it, Mad Doctor Stein? I don't think my name matters none in this bout, so i'll leave you with what my friends call me- Zero," He didn't care about the circumstances nor did he care he was outnumbered, he had his confidence, not just in himself but in his strength at his disposal. As if for a moment the boys voice would change into something almost...Darker and Deeper as he stepped from the bushes and entered the thirty meter circle clearing," Whatever you've done to this village has gotten my partner roused...Hope you're prepared for a fight none of these other weak Konoha shinobi can give you," The dark voice subsided as a small aura took over the boy, forming around the odd vambraces before they came alive. The center piece above the wrist would form into a pair of green eyes which fluttered about before glancing at the woman and then back to stein.

In his eyes were a fire that he was going to show to this man, you don't mess with his home. With the sounds of the wind covering his tracks, he energized his body allowing him to move faster than normal, his speed gaining to 138 which allowed his body to move from his earlier position to behind Stein a mere two meters but he wouldn't be done yet. At that moment his chakra which was once suppressed would rage as his speed and strength became boosted, his skin became sleek and tinted black as his chakra permeated from his body and those eyes? The same crimson red as that voice he was once speaking in.

With his new position bones began to protrude from his body, bones coming from his back, arms, hands and legs sticking outwards in a way that would not harm him. With a swift motion he began to spin, the bones creating a twister of slashing blades meant to cut at the males back, legs and arms. The battle had begun with this one move as he made sure that this would be a fight that would be in his favor.

Stein would hear the wind blowing and started weaving his hand signs and as Zero dashed towards him, he ducked down and slammed his hands on the ground, making a meter by a meter square under Stein raise up into the air by twenty Meters, As Zero used shunshin it would be rather difficult to stop himself before he smacked into the Moving earth cored piece of earth, And Stein looked down at Zero as he shouted out to him "Now Now Mate, So Zero was it, Tell me, what did the Kid mean to you to make you get this upset?" Stein smiled down at the man as he formed a few more hand signs and made a rock section cane, taking it and spinning around and he waited to see what the Zero Kid would do.

Moving Earth Core raises at a speed of 40

Through the eyes of his guantlets he could see the movements of Stein as he attempted to make a quick succession of hand as he used his technique, though he had been moving at a swift pace his destination would have been reached just before the constructed reached ten meters. Though he would have hit the mound of earth if his positioning was all but a single meter yet because he was two meters away from teh construct he was safe. Before the construct could reach its full height, Zero's aforementioned actions would have went through causing the bones to pulse through his body granting him a boost of strength as his fist collided with the earthen mound causing it to crumble at its fifteen meter mark. As the construct fell however it would leave Stein in the air unless he had an ability that allowed him to maneuver in the air in which case with a swift and quick motion he pulled his spine from his body and lurched it at the male at the speed of 150 as if it was a whip...a really strong and weird whip, its health being 63, it would make its way to wrap around stein at the waist before using his strength (which would be at 88) to slam him into the ground. Pulling the whip back whether the attack went through or not he would stare at the male," You don't come into my home and kill or take form those that live in it. Performing a crime of that nature makes my blood boil!," the whip in which he was still holding would use to attach onto the males leg and attempt to swing him around.

Stein felt the core begin to give way and he turned to face the core's attacker, and then the core crumbled and he was falling down suddenly, his hands above his head, and his palms pointed in a angle, that when he shot a thread out at a speed of fifty, the whip that suddenly came at him would most likely get pierced by the thread, as it's sharpness was fifty (eighty-two with Sharpness Booster if it applies) and if they were to clash as such, it would be about Five Meters away from Stein, and it would most likely destroy the whip as the thread would be destroyed and what was left would tract to his hand, with one hand free still to save himself with from another attack if needed.

Shigure in the distance watched the fight intently, she was not going to interfere as that would put to much distraction on either the enemy or her creator and neither was either fair or definite to how that would be how to go. So She just watched waiting for either a moment to strike, if needed to save her creator, or the moment that she needed to interfere in other ways, again to save her Creator.

The two clashed which made the whip break from its tip towards it middle, though as sad as it appeared to be he didn't mind nor care it served his purpose to see what he had been dealing with. The whip was swiftly discarded as he moved forward judging his timing and distance between Stein still being in the air and his position of ten meters below him, the timing would be perfect for at least two more assaults. Using the ground to springboard into the air, his body would be placed five meters from Stein watching both hands as he unleashed one of his greatest Taijutsu techniques. With his left fist the first attack was made, a huge pressure..no a huge wind vacuum would encase Stein hitting him stronger than ever before the rest came. Fist after fist he began to punch faster and harder, each fist creating a pressurized air vacuum that pushed him back and forth and below Hideyoshi? The ground crumbled and broke as if it couldn't withstand the power he was putting out. " Need to keep pushing him in the air...This can work," the genin was going to win...no matter what. The air vacuum's at their end would force both men onto the ground, the crushing of rock and debris under him caused him to look at his opponent more intently as he watched and waited for his signs.

Stein watched as the Kid bounded up to him with a single jump, and Stein crossed his arms in front of his face and activated his Yin Healing wound Destruction, so even though he was pummeled with Wind Vaccum's they did nothing to him between his armor and the Yin Healing Wound Destruction, and not to mention his decent level of health as well, but of course the wind did keep his body up in the air a little longer, with his palms facing down towards Zero he shot two threads, one from either hand, down and aimed for Zero's Shoulders, nothing Killing, just to immobilize the Shoulders if he could.

As Zero was within the five meter radius and his threads had shot out during the start of the barrage of wind vaccums that halted his fall, that placed Zero just within reach, and within time to catch him too, so if he raised any after that, he would pull Zero up with him, Stein was impressed with how this kid knew when to take advantage of an enemy, sadly Stein knew how to defend himself, even airborne, and he had no idea if the kid expected that or not.

If they continued to fall after the barrage of wind vaccums although they most likely stopped after the first one, then Zero would most likely hit the ground first, and as Stein fell, would most likely Pin Zero to the ground, and slow down to a stop as more threads would shoot out to, once again not kill, but enough to halt his fall at the five meter mark away from the ground, and pinning Zero even more to the Ground.

If something came up that had made Stein to stop something he would be prepared to react accordingly to the situation if it was needed.
