Duel of Young ones

This day was one to remember. Izu was ready to fight, and to spar with a fellow shinobi. As she stood in the middle of the arena, the ground around her was specifically set to resemble a forest, filled with trees all around the 100m by 100m arena ground. There she met with Hiyu, another Kirigakure ninja that she had met prior, and both said they wanted to spar. Well this was it! As both were face to face, under the applaud and excitement of the crowd.

''Ready Hiyu? Lets give it our best. Looser by the other ramen.'' Said Izu, enthusiast to fight, and armed to the teeth. And armed to the teeth she was indeed! As she wore her traditionnal outfit, the ample jacket she wore covered most of her arsenal: under her long and oversized sleeves, she wore in each hand chain gauntlets, with only the glove covering her hands with sharp metal fingers being seen. The rest of her arms was covered by the 2 wire mechanism to manipulate steel wire length inside, and also armbands with seals to hold more weapons. On the outside, she had her long senbon sword in her left hand with wire tied in the hoop for it, and tied to her mechanism in her hand, not visible for now until the weapon exited her hand. In her other hand, Izu held a umbrella, using it for style to hide under it from the sun, without appearing like a weapon. Underneath all of her outfit, she wore her armor too, protected. As both did the seal of confrontation and walked 70m appart to their own corner of the arena, Izu waited for Hiyu to move to start moving too, keeping on hedge and ready to dash.

stats:

Nemui wasn't expecting a crowd when he agreed to spar Izu, nonetheless, here they were. Seeing the terrain of the arena, at first he'd guess it would prove more of a hindrance than anything. Still, there was no reason to give up before they'd even begun. Answering the girl's challenge he would speak in a low, nervous tone. "Sure.. That'll be a nice way to relax afterwards." Unlike Izu, Nemui barely had any equipment and would be relying solely on his physical prowess and techniques. Unfortunately for him, the now C-Ranked shinobi he faced was also better equipped in that regard. It waited to be seen whether or not he could do anything to phase her against these increasingly poor odds.

Performing the Seal of Confrontation once he reached the starting point 70 meters apart, in the opposite corner from Izu, the boy wondered what his first move should be. If anything, closing the distance was his best bet, so he'd attempt running in the direction of Izu's corner at a speed of 25. Keeping an eye on his surroundings and listening for anything noteworthy, the boy would forge onwards. It was of note that he had no idea how the Byakugan worked, so while the girl could observe him the entire time, he would be none the wiser to that fact. Knowing however to expect the expected, he would actively use the Chakra Sensory skill to slightly improve his chances of winning this spar. This gave him a ten meter radius of knowledge for anything Chakra related, at the very least.

Stats:

As soon as Hiyu moved after being at 70m from Izu, the hyuuga girl activated her byakugan, seeing trough all the forest arena and the chakra signature of her opponent. He moved at a slow speed compared to her so Izu didnt move at all, instead waiting with her umbrella over her head for him to make up a small distance. As Hiyu approached and made 8m of distance, Izu threw the umbrella in the air at a speed of 125, raising and twirling until it stop 25m in the sky. At this point, the umbrella open up and start spinning, staying in the air in levitation over Izu. 

''Come and get me!'' Say Izu, taunting Hiyu and smiling, as she concentrate to channel her chakra into her tenketsu system, sending it flowing with immense power trough her muscles and nerves (+50speed(175)/+50chakra(175)) and throw her senbon sword toward the left shoulder of Hiyu, before immediately forming handseals of Rat-> Bird-> Snake , influencing the throw in an invisible way in a special way that could move again the sword should it touch any surface or miss. As the senbon sword travel at its target at a speed of 175, the wire attached to it travel behind it tied to the arm mechanism in Izu left hand, following the thrown sword at the same time. 

As both hand of Izu free themselves, she grip 5 of her special senbons in each of her hands, while still holding onto the wire to manipulate it, keeping at the ready. 

battle stats:

Nemui would observe the girl's actions, throwing an umbrella over her head and a sword in his direction. Not stopping his run towards the girl, Nemui would now be sprinting at a speed of 50. With the sword closing in on him at one meter's distance he would activate Muscular Overdrive (+60 Strength = 210, +60 Speed = 110). Then as the sword was in his melee range, he would clap his hands around the blunt sides with a speed and strength of 210 (Muscular Fighting Style, attempting to catch it. Detecting Chakra within the blade, Nemui would assume there could be some tricks involved and he'd be prepared to adjust to catch the blade if it moved. Then assuming he was able to catch the weapon, he would notice the wire attached to it and its origin coming from Izu's direction. At this point he would rapidly begin spinning the blade with a coiling motion, reeling in the wire around the blade's handle like a fishing line.

The act of doing this with 210 strength would pull the mechanism attached to the girl's arm and thus the girl's arm as well, taut. Nemui would use this to rapidly pull her towards him, also at a speed of 210. He would continue this process using his right hand while performing handseals with his left, Tiger - Boar - Dog - Dragon - Rat, activating Taijutsu Infusion at the A-Rank level. With the girl being rapidly moved towards him by one arm, she would no longer be able to perform handseals with both hands, as that would involve pulling her other hand up to reach against the pulling force of 210 strength. This was all simply assuming that nothing hindered Nemui's plan or outright ruined it. While being pulled by the wire, she would also be dragged ferociously against the forest ground. It would not be long at this speed until he pulled Izu into melee range.

Nemui still ran toward her, closing in the distance more and more, but at a speed too slow to really cover too much ground before the projectile arrived near him. While it was travelling, Nemui muscle started to bulge visibly, his body changing and showing the amazing strength he could wield. While the projectile was in the air, Izu delivered steel hell: she sent a second after the sword the two handfull of 5 senbons behind the sword at a speed of 175, all aimed differently. The first 2 aimed at the left hand, the second two at the right hand, the two after at the right ankle, the two after at the left ankle, and the last 2 at Nemui hip, one in each joint for each leg. As Izu senbon sword was flying toward the left shoulder of Nemui closely followed by the 10 acupuncture senbons behind, Izu could see with her byakugan his muscles and tenketsu system start to activate to move his arms in a catching motion, claping his hand to catch it, and adjusting to catch it.

With the weapon being infused to change its trajectory, Izu adjusted it to pass the claping of Nemui, making him clap in the emptyness. Instead, the weapon would hit Nemui in the chest, if it hit piercing him for 88 damage, and traversing him fully if it hits, traveling trough his body and lodging itself 16m farther in a tree, the wire now traversing Nemui's body. In a swift motion, Izu would also wrap Nemui in lengths of the wire traversing him by swinging in flicking motion the mechanism with her wrists at a technique speed of 110, wrapping around Nemui torso to lock him in place in the length of wire. A mere second after this, the remaining 10 senbons would make their way toward the aimed points, Nemui now unable to move lateraly if he was caught previously with the tense wire traversing him. Should those senbons hit, each one would slip past armor by their ultra fine nature, and disable key tenketsu points, each doing also 88 AP damage (total is -880AP) should they hit.

With Nemui stuck in the wire, and the senbons, Izu would stand on the ready to yank on the cable at any movement to remove it, creating a chopping motion with a speed of 175 and a power of 150, chopping the boy in half.

Before doing so Izu would yell to her opponent. ''Surrender Nemui, I gotcha there!'' 

combat stats:

As Nemui attempted to catch the senbon sword it nearly escaped his grasp, shifting slightly towards his chest. Thankfully he'd catch it, preventing the blade from piercing his body but due to the overwhelming focus he dedicated to the task, her follow-up senbon went unnoticed, striking the boy throughout his body and robbing a large amount of his energy. Immediately hit with the overwhelming urge to lay down, the boy fell to a knee gasping. Nemui raised his right hand with an open palm, signaling that Izu had gotten the better of him. Unfortunately it looked like he'd be the one paying for their ramen later.

[We've mutually decided to stop this spar because we misunderstood quite a few things. Thanks go to Ace and Izu for a very comprehensive discussion about all the issues we had.]

Approved!

Note: A Battle Mod was called and explained the issues present within the thread. In conjunction with the latest large patch to the site, both Izu and Nemui indicated to just call an end to the spar rather than proceed with the full BM Ruling. With respect to the mutual decision of the players Nemui is conceeding to Izu in this instance.

As her handfulls of senbons lodged themselves in the thick muscles of Nemui, Izu knew the win was there. After a few seconds, Nemui fell to his knees, raising his hands toward Izu to concede the victory to her. In the end, it would've been maybe a more complex and long fight, but today wasnt the good day to fight all in. Maybe in the end, Nemui was just hungry and wanted ramen faster ? who knows! 

As Izu reeled back in her arms the wire into the mechanism, bringing back the long senbon sword attached to it, and making it disapear into her pocket dimmension for weapons, making it appear as if she make it disappear in her sleeve too. As she turned toward Nemui, her flying umbrella fell gracefully from the sky, swirling into the air, swerving left and right, and falling perfectly into her hand, with Izu making a pause and a smile under the shade of the umbrella.

As she approached Nemui, and removed the needles from his body, Nemui energy came back, showing that no true damage were done, and only tenketsu points were touched, showing the medical mastery of Izu. Nonetheless, as a preventive measure, Izu weaved handsigns, and applied her calm and soft hand on the young boy. As it began to glow in a green hue, Nemui suffering and wounds would close up, healed by the hand of the very one who damaged him in the first place. 

''So, ramen? I'll be getting the spicy seafood one, thanks in advance!'' said the blonde Hyuuga girl, a smile of victory on her face. 

As both young ones walked away, they talked about the fight, and the potential of a rematch in the near future.
