Training Sparring (Private) (No Killing)

Shin sat down and began meditating listening to every noise around him knownig every inch for 3 miles. He smiled as he heard foot steps in the distance. (Short sorry)

(Speed)

Dyren had just arrived at the Village of Sand, but was looking for someone. His rival, as he liked to call it, Shinigami Shi. Okay, he admitted he was ten times more trained and willing than him, but hey, rival none the less. He ran between the dunes of golden sand to train his own agility as he searched for his adversary in the middle of the seeminglessly infite desert.

He then saw a figure in the distance, meditating on the ground, his thoughts probably focused on the word around him. "He's a weirdo" Dyren thought. "Must be Shin." He wondered if he had any ryo in his pouch. He could try to take some coins himself this time.

Dyren hid behind a dune, triying to make up a plan. Last time talking didn't work...however just jumping into him might work. But it could hurt him, but it's his rival, so there's not much of a problem. Also, he is more than capable of handling himself.

However, he COULD get quite angry at someone jumping at him with weapons and injuring him, so Dyren thought, hey, let's use bare hands and feet, and when Ihe got near enough, he could shout "Training! No weapons." He could do that, now to think of an attack plan.

Dyren chuckled lightly as his "rival" did not see him coming, and planned to jump from behind him, trying to kick the back of his had while he was meditating. It was a perfect method:He couldn't see him coming, and he TRIED not to make noises. Maybe he shouldn't have wore such heavy boots. Or a metal shoulderpad. Or a metal forehead protector, but whatever.

There he was, a few feet away. His breath heavy with the heat of the warm sun. He hated this climate. And now that he thought of it, Shin was around a lot of sand. His rival had an element advantage in the desert. Maybe next time, he should lure him to the forest. maybe when there's no more missing-nin there...

As he focused his attention on the plan, Dyren slowly dropped his coar at the ground, tighten his headband, prepared his feet and ran as fast and light as he could. Dyren then took a light jump, enough to gain enough attitude to hit his foot directly at the back of Shin's head, and to fly right above him afterwards, if sucessful. And he tried said kick, hoping it would hit.

Shin heard the sweat of his opponent hit the ground as he started running. He smiled them formed the serpent seal and disappeared into flakes of sand in the endless amounts of sand. He knew that Dyren didn't know where he just disappeared to. He used the wind of the desert to carry the sand pellets that were now Shin over 6 feet. He waited for the perfect moment to strike Dyren.

Dyren entered a turtle like position, crouching and leaving only his back turned to the sky, knowing attacks could come from anywhere. He then placed his arms on the side of his defensive position, ready to strike anything that comes near. "Ready when you are Shin!" He said, a funny grin on his face.

Shin reappeared in a new location 6 yards south of the original location. He then slapped his hands together and then slammed them on the ground. He looked at Dyren as he started to return to the earth below. Corpse's began to rise from the ground and sprint at Dyren to fight him with taijutsu. "Don't get killed Dyren, because they only know how to kill." Shin smiled then sat down forming the serpent seal again forming the sand shield around his body. A demonic laugh echoed out side into the air where Dyren could hear it.

(*Fixing* your zombies, Shin.)

The zombies couldn't do much, as their attempts to run were flawed and their attacks, easy to block with Dyren's taijutsu. The ones who got near enough to him were easily dispatched with a few kicks, but Dyren knew that those corpses were distractions to something bigger.

He had to take Shin away from his shelter. Dyren, then thinking about taking advantage of the boy's inflated ego, shouted with all the air in his lungs as more corpses fell, trying not to let any of them too near.

"Get out of that shelter and fight it like a man, ye coward!"

He proceeded to fight the corpses off, smiling awaiting his rival's response.

Shin hearing this made him angry he used the body flicker technique to arrive behind Dyren in which he drove a kunai into his kidneys watching blood and urin pour out of his back. He then kicked him into a dune. And released the corpse jutsu.

Dyren was prepared for....aggresive responses. He used the Substitution Technique to avoid Shin's attack, him hitting a rock instead of his target. Dyren appeared behind him, unsheating a kunai while kicking him in the back so he would fall from his dune.

"Know what a friendly spar means? No murdering, y'know?" He said, smiling.

(Btw, remember my spec is Taijutsu.)

Shin laughed from the rocks below them as the sand clone that Dyren attacked busted then he realized he was low on chakra. "Good fight but bye." He slammed his hands together forming the serpent seal and used the body flicker technique.
