Death and Decay [Zorolo]

OoC: Right, as you know I'll be using Nenshou. This should be quite interesting ^.^ I'm doing longer posts than usual too.

BiC: Nenshou Kyoushu, in the dead of night, jumped from tree to tree in search of the thief who had stolen his headband; He was sleeping in a clearing in this forest before anything, when a cloaked figure snatched the headband from his forehead and fled into the forest. And Nenshou needed that headband for the ANBU Black Ops. After a few hundred or so yards, the ninja came to a halt; A clearing was ahead, and he could sense a presence, one like the cloaked thief's. Sure enough, when he passed a tree, there stood the thief, headband in his right hand. Nenshou, subtlely enough, ran through a series of quick handseals.

"Katon, Ryuka no Jutsu," he whispered under his breath. The flame rolled along, and just as Nenshou thought the fire had burnt the cloaked thief to a crisp, he had just disappeared altogether. Nenshou's headband was left behind, laying face down in the dirt. Frowning, he rushed over to his precious leaf headband and brushed the dirt off of it as he picked up. Now frustrated, he began to analyze the area around him. Just a normal graveyard, nothing special...All of a sudden, Nenshou was hit with an aura of power extremely hard to decipher. It wasn't a ninja's aura. He couldn't tell where it was coming from, either.

"Damn it," he whispered under the cool night atmosphere of the graveyard. Then, he heard the voice...

"Hey, you...Are you the one that stole my dagger?" the green haired man asked the unexpecting Nenshou. In shock, the ninja turned around; He hadn't even sensed the man's presence behind his, let alone deciphered the aura of power the man was giving off. Although he could not determine the man's strength, he felt the same aura from this man as the thief. So he had to go with that, and believe the thief and this man were the same.

"I can't forgive you," Nenshou yelled, whipping atleast ten kunai from seemingly nowhere towards the man. The kunai, with wire so thin they were almost invisible tied through the loop, passed right by the man. The other ends of the wires were preemptively tied by Nenshou to nearby tree branches. Once again, Nenshou ran through a series of handseals.

"Katon, Gamayu Emudan no Jutsu!" he yelled. The man tried to dash to the side but was caught up in all the wires...The fire not only hit him directly, but the wires caught ablaze...

OoC: Sorry the post kinda lacked quality, or atleast it did IMO.

OoC: Interesting, to say the least. Let’s get this party started.

BiC: The fencer had awoken earlier that day to find something was wrong. A strange monster, cloaked in mist and shadow struck at him and stole his short sword from him. The fencer recapped the even over and over again, seeing how the monster had struck so suddenly and taken his blade before the aura master even had a chance to counter attack; the fencer now ran through the forest, following the trail the monster had left in its flee from the scene of the crime. The fencer jumped from the last tree branch from the forest into the graveyard, and something that quickly dispelled the thick mist from around the area. A massive orange and red light appeared in the distance and the swordsman watched as something burned away, leaving an odd object that the person that had called upon the fire picked up. The aura master moved in to investigate what this man was doing and learn what was going on.

"Hey you! Are you the one that stole my short sword?!" The aura master asked annoyed at this man, seeing as he looked almost the same as what had attacked the fencer and stolen his sword. The fencer let his left hand drift upon the hilt of his rapier and was ready to draw it as soon as he needed. The left handed warrior kept a close eye on the young boy, recognizing his headband and that he had the achieved status of a ninja. The fencer had fought his fair share of their kind, and he could sense this boy was like all the rest of their kind... Foolish.

"I can't forgive you!" The boy shouted, throwing several of his throwing knives past the fencer. It didn't take long for the aura master to know what this boy had planned, seeing the faint lines thanks to the moon light that sat over the graveyard; the boy ran through a quick series of hand signs again and readied his magic: "Katon, Gamayu Emudan no Jutsu!" He said quickly, inhaling and then shooting a large fireball that ran down the invisible lines towards the green haired man. The flames were inches away, and the boy had a smile on his face that would be suddenly smashed; the aura master's gold bladed sword shimmered as he swung it and sliced away at all of the invisible lines, breaking their ability to transfer the flames to the experienced swordsman.

"You'll have to be more creative then that to beat me boy," the fencer told him in all honesty and seriousness. "If you have any hope of beating me, it won't be in those weak magics you wield, for I know how to counter or use them against you, and if you need more information on that, ask a boy named Takeo for he would tell you that fire magic is not a good weapon against the man you've decided to challenge," the fencer said as he moved, quickly driving his knee into the boy's chest and knocking him into a grave stone, causing it subsequently to shatter. The boy got up and dusted himself off, looking at the fencer with angry eyes.

"You will pay for what you have done!" He told the fencer.

"We'll see who shall pay..." The fencer said, returning the angry glare, tightening his grip upon his rapier. "You have no idea what you are up against," the fencer said as his normal aura, his emerald energy from within the passages of his body began to appear flame like around him.

OoC: Time for some fun, en guarde!

OoC: :3

BiC: "I think I do...A foolish thief who dared to set his grubby hands upon my Konoha head protector!" Nenshou yelled, using Kage Bunshin no Jutsu. Ten clones burst into life.

"I see, an interesting trick; I have to defeat them all. Interesting, but simple," the fencer said. "Before we begin, though, what is your name?"

"Nenshou Kyoushu," he said emotionlessly.

"Zorlo. Prepare yourself." Zorlo charged towards the eleven ninja. Three clones got in front and took the brunt of the attack. One, two, the fencer struck. One, two, the clones disappeared. Nenshou immediately saw his attack rate; he struck at this particular group of clones twice with his rapier first, then blocks a shot with his buckler. Nenshou decided to use that against him. The real him charged forth with two other clones, kunai in hand. Zorlo took a step back, and launched his arm forward twice. Although one strike hit the clone, the next strike was completely blocked by the real ninja. Zorlo staggered back, but it did not matter; the kunai struck forth like a snake.

And the buckler did the same. Not only did the fencer dodge, but he counterattacked with amazing grace. The buckler cracked Nenshou in the side of the head.

"That was a smart move, to go for the gap in my attack speed...It would have worked, but it seems as though I'm faster than-"

"Don't even finish that sentence," a voice whispered from behind Zorlo. The Nenshou hit with the fencer's buckler, was a mere clone. It poofed into smoke and dispersed. "I did charge towards you at first, but it seems as though I'm faster than you, Zorlo, slipping behind you with deception and speed." Nenshou mocked the man. "Now that we both know what we're up against, neither of us should hold back." Zorlo spun around quickly and sliced the clone's face off. It dispersed accordingly.

OoC: Still can't finish yet

OoC: Splitting your Chakra into 11 parts... So sad. Only having 1/11 of your full power may hurt you.

BiC: The fencer looked at the group of ninja still standing around him; albeit he had felled four of the clones, it was still seven on one, and he loved these odds. As the last ninja foolish enough to challenge the fencer had done, this boy had chosen the path of underestimating the fencer's speed, the second was guessing at his attack pattern. The aura master spun his blade in his hand and shoved the sword into the ground and removed his buckler from his arm and returned it to his belt. The ninja wasted not time and struck, but the fencer quickly grabbed his sword and ducked down and stabbed his sword into one and kicked another, making them poof away as the fencer rolled under the group as they converged. The five turned and looked at the fencer, who stepped back slightly, getting ready to strike at the group again.

"You aren't bad," the fencer told the ninja group, smiling as he did so. The fencer slid his left foot forwards and his right foot back slightly. "But you should be careful about whom you choose to fight, for you may find a foe beyond you." As Zorlo uttered these words the ninja group scoffed and laughed at him.

"I should be the one telling you that," they said in unison as they all took another laugh. The fencer shrugged off their laughter and readied himself to fight against this foe who had proven to be entertaining. The ninja had proven he was good, and his aura was much stronger the Takeo's, but he still didn't seem that powerful. The fencer raised his right hand and waved the ninja group on, it was time to see if they could defeat him. The ninja all drew two throwing stars and threw them towards the fencer, apparently not knowing that Zorlo had a good deal of practice in destroying projectiles.

As the projectiles came, the fencer made fluid and swift movements, cutting them in half or deflecting them, but as he did so, the four of the five clones charged, making a powerful offensive towards the swordsman. The aura master's glowing, green eyes followed the movements of the attackers as he stepped back slightly and then moved forwards, bursting past the clones at an amazing speed and thrusting his sword into the fifth ninja, who merely smiled and poofed away. The trap had been set, and the fencer had walked right into it.

OoC: http://narutofan.com/index.php/conte...akra%20control
1/11 of the chakra I converted from stamina* I should put that in Nenshou's profile.
Wasn't finished with my post, but as long as the battle is still goin, that's ok ^^ I'll edit this with my post in a bit.

BiC: Zorlo fingered the guard of his rapier suspiciously. He knew the ninja was around, he just didn't know where. Behind, no. Above, nothing. Where could he-

Zorlo was stopped in thought when a hand tightly grasped his ankle. Shocked, the fencer pulled back quickly, but to no avail. Zorlo, in seconds, was pulled straight down into the ground, to about his waist.

"Deception is the key for any ninja," he said to Zorlo.

OoC: Woo, I really couldn't think of anything. You can take it from here, but I gotta make this up next time it's my turn.

The aura master noticed the hands grabbing his feet and pulling him into the ground as the four ninja emerged from under him. Good tactic, the fencer noted as he struggled to break their holds and free himself. He found himself being pulled into the ground by eight hands, four on each leg. The swordsman cracked a smile as he thrust his blade into the head's of one of the clones, making it disappear from the battle, but it did not stop him from being pulled up to his waste into the ground as the three remaining ninja's jumed away from him, shocked at the counter attack he had made. The ground around the fencer collapsed and he fell into a small hole; he heard the snickers and mocking laughter from above and looked up to see the three ninja all staring down at him.

"That wasn't to hard," one commented, laughing a bit more.

"Yeah, and now that guy is stuck down there," the second said.

"Don't let your guard down," the third said, keeping his eyes on the fencer. "This guy has proven himself to be tricky, so don't take your eyes off of him until he is dead," the third one said, about to begin his hand signs for one of his attacks, the fencer guessed.

"That was pretty impressive," the fencer told the ninja warrior, pressing the balls of his feet against the ground. "Want to see something just as cool?" The fencer asked them, getting ready to do something. The three ninja didn't have time to say anything as the fencer propelled himself upwards at the warriors, who quickly moved away to avoid being struck as the fencer landed on the ground. "Good move, if you had stood there, I would have made your numbers less," the aura master told them as he swung his sword quickly and returning to his combat ready stance. The fencer watched the ninja warrior closely, making sure that none of the clones had moved, but something was bothering the fencer, and this was, "Why did you steal my short sword?"

OoC: Woo! (Exploding Tags are pieces of paper that explode after a short amount of time)

BiC: Nenshou did not answer the question, he just attacked again. The two clones dove for his feet, while the real one attacked head on. Zorlo easily dispatched the three; Two strikes with his swords took out the clones, then he spun around and struck the real one in the head.

The real one quickly retaliated, spinning around in midair and sending a kick towards the fencer. He just barely blocked it, though the kick glanced his right index finger, bending it back about a centimeter further than it was supposed to. Nenshou bounced back up to his feet upon landing and ran through some seals.

"Ninpou, Hekika no Jutsu!" The words echoed throughout the graveyard. Nothing happened in Nenshou's eyes, but Zorlo began shaking his leg with the adrenaline of fear rushing about him. He was blowing on his leg now, and patting it down with ferocity. The illusion was working. Nenshou quickly attached an exploding tag to one of his kunai and whipped it at the fencer, who was now on the ground, panting heavily. The exploding tag took out a nearby tree, half the graves, and made a large crater in the middle of the graveyard. Zorlo stood in the middle of the crater. He had minor cuts and bruises all over his body.

"Damn it...Where's my short sword, ninja?" Zorlo yelled. Nenshou, confused but unwilling to answer such a question to a common thief (to his knowledge, anyway). He made two handseals, and would've made the third, but something caught his attention. A golden plaque with jewels encrusted in the border sat resting against a particularly crummy looking grave. This was too much of a clash, he had to check it out. Completely forgetting about the battle, he teleported over to the plaque. It read:

"Good Friend, for Jesus's Sake forbaere,
To Digg the Dust Encloazed Haere.
Blest be the Man who Sparez thes Stonez,
And Curst be he, who movz my Bonez."

It must be talking about the grave, was Nenshou's thought. He bent over and started digging up the grave, and hit a coffin beneath the dirt. He began to dig it out. After it was dug out, Nenshou slowly lifted the cover...Though it did not matter how slowly he lifted it, for a blinding light seared from within the coffin, and a strong gust of power ripped the cover off. The light shone over the whole graveyard. Nenshou, startled and astonished, fell backwards into a roll. From other graves rose the hundred, or thousand, year occupants...The ones that were already dead.. Some had no skin, organs, or clothing at all. Some had a disgusting combination, green and ripped, cold and filled with disgusting grubs. Nenshou didn't even take in the fact that there were so many; They struck him with immense fear...

Zombies.

OoC: Wanted to do something fun with the graveyard scene. ^^

The fencer stood up in the crater that had been created when the tag had detonated. The flames vanished from around him; his eyes were filled with annoyance at the cheap trickery made by the youth, and the time had come for him to pay. The aura master picked up his sword and dusted himself off, looking up towards where the boy had teleported from. The swordsman stepped out of the crater and watched the boy as he dug at the grave, trying to find something obviously. The aura master held his sword forwards as he walked, and the boy suddenly stopped and something began to emerge from the ground; zombies burst from the ground from all graves around the two combatants. The aura master raised an inquiring eyebrow, but was not concerned with these feeble creatures.

"BOY!" Zorlo yelled as the ninja looked at him. "You will pay for your trick!" The swordsman commanded. The swordsman charged at the boy, who looked at him inquisitively and jumped back as the fencer swung his sword, cutting down an all bones zombie.

"What are you doing?!" The ninja asked, looking around at the undead legions that were surrounding the two warriors.

"I'm getting my sword back, you called these zombies, so they should leave me alone; they are here to make you dead is the long and short of it," the aura master told him as the swordsman charged again, swinging again at the boy, who evaded causing the fencer to fell another of the formerly living.

The zombies moved slowly and sluggishly towards the fencer, who merely looked around for the ninja warrior, who had proven to be most tricky, which was always the case with his kind. Suddenly, a kunai flew past Zorlo's head and embedded itself into a zombies skull, but something was attached to it that the fencer saw. The aura master burst forwards, cutting down zombies as he ran at Nenshou, who drew a weapon that the fencer had not seen in a long time. Drawing the fold-up shuriken, the ninja used it like a sword to stop the fencer's slash and hold back the golden blade the fencer wielded.

"These zombies are trying to kill us and you are still fighting me!" He said, pushing his massive shuriken against the fencer.

"That is there problem, they are to weak to fight with us, so why worry?!" The fencer asked as he pulled his sword back and swung down; the ninja rolling to the side to evade the down coming golden sword. "Come boy, we still have a battle to end don't we?"

OoC: This is a good deal of fun. Hope you like how I used your Demon wind Shuriken.

Nenshou unfurled his shuriken with a flick of his hand and whipped it at Zorlo. The fencer dodged it just as Nenshou teleported behind him. The ninja caught it and hurled it towards Zorlo, the blades furling together. He blocked with his buckler, then struck with his rapier. The clone poofed as the rapier struck it...and Zorlo was now surrounded by a hundred thousand zombies. Nenshou stood on a nearby tree, watching the fencer flailing at the zombies. With confidence, he made handseals.

"Katon, Goukakyuu no Jutsu!" The fireball streamed forth from his mouth, bathing Zorlo in its flames. Several zombies fled at the intensity of the flame. Zorlo's right arm got singed, as well as his right leg, though not as badly. Once again Nenshou drew up the Fuuma Shuriken into a scimitar cast. He leaped from the tree and towards Zorlo, striking down with fury. The fencer barely raised his arm in time to block it with his buckler.

"Fool!" he yelled, smiling; The fencer shoved the large shuriken upward with his buckler and stabbed Nenshou in the ribcage with his sword. Although Nenshou pushed himself up further with his chakra, it still went at least halfway into him. Teleporting around Zorlo and off of his blade as fast as he could, the ninja clutched his ribcage tightly...The bleeding would take awhile to stop. He cut off a piece of his shirt with a kunai to use to keep the blood from flowing as much. The fencer spun around to face Nenshou.

"You realize this fight has just begun?" the ninja said. Zorlo nodded, grinning fomentedly. The fight was exciting both of them. It was at that time when atleast twenty more zombies offshot from the ground, straight up at Nenshou. They were all armed with swords, scythes, and maces.

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Nenshou yelled, making several clones. The real one was in the middle of his groupage of zombies, beheadding them all with his Fuuma Shuriken.

OoC: Done, finally The next post will be quicker.

The fire attack of the ninja had burned the cloth from the aura master's jacket, although not causing more damage to the heavily armored warrior then that. This guy is pretty strong, but every person has his or her limits, the swordsman told himself as he smiled and looked at the approaching zombies. The fencer didn't waste any time and quickly used his energy to collect air around his sword. "Air Slash," the fencer yelled, throwing the air wave horizontally into a group of zombies and shattering their rotting bodies with the force of the blow. "This is going to be a let down," the fencer told himself as he turned and swung his sword sideways again, felling several of the newly risen foes with ease.

The swordsman watched as the boy created clones and fought off the oncoming hoards of the dead, but the fencer was unworried about his foe and his clones dealings with these monster; the fencer, outnumbered, was unworried about his predicament. "Come get me!" He told the dead, holding his hand up and waving them on. The creatures struck with great speed, charging the swordsman with every thing they had; the fencer looked upon his charging foe and quickly spun around, cutting all of the zombies that jumped at him down with great ease. Body parts and bones fell about as the fencer turned to see how his foe was doing.

The ninja was holding his own with fair ease, but the number of foes had quickly cut down his number of clones. Suddenly, the fencer saw the man perform a quick group of his hand signs and release a rather fast moving fireball. Perfect! The aura master thought to himself, holding Apollo up and using his energy to swirl the air tightly around his sword as the fireball hit. Suddenly, the fencer's sword burst into a raging inferno of flames around it, but the sword's blade was utterly untouched by the flames. "Thanks," the fencer said, bowing quickly and turning, throwing a flame wave that immolate a large number of the risen dead.

The flame danced around the fencer's sword as he turned to face the ninja and the two looked around. From the looks of the graveyard, the zombies were all gone; the fencer swung his sword to his left, extinguishing the flames from his blade and readying himself to fight with the boy again. The ninja drew his strange weapon and readied for combat with the fencer again. Zorlo turned his foot, and charged, ready to fight again and quickly making a powerful vertical slash at the boy.

OoC: Oh, and thanks again for the sweet character button.

OoC: (Okay, so the post didn't come quicker than the last :-/)

BiC: Nenshou, undeground with a few clones, had his plan thought out. As his clone fought Zorlo, dodging and blocking all attacks thrown at him, the real Nenshou would wait for the fencer to step over him. The duel raged on; The clone tried to parry the enemy into the trap many times, but it never happened.

Finally, the fencer stepped over Nenshou. His plan had fallen into action. He grabbed Zorlo's foot and pulled him down, but before the fencer could even react, the clone that was dueling him kicked him in the jaw straight upwards. That clone disappeared. Two clones underground jumped up towards him; One jumped towards him, one jumped over him.

The clone moving towards him was about to let out a punch before Zorlo blocked it, but that did no good since the clone above him just kicked him in the head. He spun about in mid air as that clone poofed and the clone going after him let out a punch that could shatter its knuckle. The punch hit him square in the face. Zorlo fell straight down, but they weren't done yet...

"Rasengan!" Nenshou yelled. Zorlo heard these words and tried to throw himself away from the object in Nenshou's hand, but no such luck had transpired. The fencer landed directly on it. A massive whirl of energy shot out as it hit him, and he was launched in the air yet again. The rasengan, like a bullet, not only spun Zorlo around on itself, grinding his skin, but pushed him up in the air forcefully.

He landed, in the middle of a heap of graves; More zombies awoke from their disturbed graves. Zorlo was quite injured, but this was far from over.

OoC: A rasengan, for the record :3

OoC: I watch Naruto, so I've seen that attack before. *Not amazed at the attack*

BiC: The Aura Master stood up as the undead rose around him, holding his sword tightly. The fencer's armor had absorbed almost the whole of the attack the ninja had used, save for small scratches in his armor; the cloth of his jacket had been cut into by the attack, he bled slightly from the energy pushing through the holes of his armor, but it mattered not to the fencer. The swordsman picked up his sword and watched as the monsters moved towards the green haired man, who brushed a piece of stray green hair to the side.

The zombies let out a loud howl as the stood around the fencer: swords, axes and clubs in hand. The weapons the creatures used were rusted, damaged, in some cases, even broken; and the monsters suddenly struck out at the swordsman, who slid his empty hand along the golden blade of his rapier as the monsters attacked, and as they drew into range, the fencer began high speed thrusting, quickly reducing the number of undead quickly. As the swordsman stopped his high speed thrusting as he spun about, removing the monsters from the world again, he looked out and noticed that the ninja boy had found him.

"You can still stand?!" The boy said, completely astounded by what he was seeing. "That's good, I wasn't quite done having fun yet," he uttered, holding his hand out as clones emerged from the ground and attacked the fencer from all sides.

"That's getting old," the warrior with the golden blade told him as the swordsman stepped back as the ninja warriors struck, throwing projectiles at the fencer; the Aura Master watched as the projectiles came close and smiled, moving his blade and deflecting or destroying the kunai and shuriken that came towards the fencer as he leapt up and cut down the number of clones quickly, reducing their numbers quickly with lethal accuracy.

The boy stood wide eyed as he watched his clones quickly reduced to null and stepped back slightly as the fencer ran at him. The rapier passed through the man, who suddenly poofed away, leaving only a log that the swordsman quickly flung from his sword. "What's wrong boy?! Stop using your little tricks and fight me, or are you afraid?" The fencer asked, holding his sword before him.

"I fear no one!" The shinobi said as he emerged from the ground and threw his strange fold up shuriken at the fencer who, with great ease, deflected it into a nearby tree and rushed the boy, thrusting his sword into the boy's lower abdomen. Blood erupted from the boy's mouth, showing that the fencer had hit the real one, and the Aura Master wasted not time as he kicked the boy in the stomach, throwing him from the sword the fencer used, in into a tree.

"You are skilled, and I am amazed at your abilities. Please return my short sword so I can leave here, and so that we can both move on with our lives," the fencer said kindly, offering a smile.

OoC: Another short post. As you know, Thanksgiving is almost here, and, well, I can't spend alot of time on this post >< Oh, and just ignore Dokubutsu's existence, he's only in Nenshou's extended bio.

BiC: This statement addled Nenshou.

"I don't have a short sword, I already said that. Dokubutsu Kyoushu was the one who stole my headband, and probably your sword too. My brother..."

Nenshou and Zorlo had no time to waste, for atleast eight hundred undead surrounded them.

"Not this again," Zorlo whispered to himself, readying his sword. Nenshou drew two kunai. The warriors' battle would have to wait.

OoC: Perhaps there's an undead captain?

The fencer quickly turned and threw an Air Slash, cutting down twenty of the zombies with ease. "I think you and I will have to end our personal battle later," the swordsman told the young boy as the two warriors were forced to face down the nigh endless hoards of zombies. The fencer burst forwards and made a quick slash, cutting through a zombie and quickly kicking another zombie, which quickly reduced to dust. "They just keep coming," the fencer said as he jumped back from an attack from another zombie.

As the legions continued to rise, not far stood the source of the monsters. A man wearing a dark red and black robe, holding a book who's pages appeared to be glowing. The man wore spiked shoulder pads and had a hood that hid everything but his yellow teeth as he smiled, watching the warriors below fight against his endless warriors. In his free hand, the man held a short sword that was glowing. "The magic that is here, and in this sword shall aid me to conquer the demon boy and the god's slave," the necromancer stated, returning to chanting the spell of returned life.

Meanwhile, the swordsman continued to destroy one zombie after another with his sword, moving quickly to fell another after one had turned to pieces or dust. The swordsman kicked through another undead soldier and slid onto the ground as he landed and cut through several more of the soldiers. "This is annoying, and I can't explain where they are coming from," the fencer said as he stopped slowly as the creatures slowly moved to encircle the green haired warrior.

The zombies let out a loud howl, raising their weapons as they kept an eye on the fencer, who didn't move, only watched the creatures. The zombies charged, holding their weapons tightly as they charged all at once at the fencer. The creatures kept their sights held on the man as they attacked all at once and soon found that they were very mismatched. A quick movement by the fencer slashed through the zombies as they all charged; the mindless creature all followed their Master's orders, despite the fact they were not working in the slightest.

The fencer slashed through a group of six undead with a single movement and then turned, thrusting his sword through another and the twisting his body, kicking two more in half and then pushing his feet against the creature's body in which his sword was embedded and pulled the blade out, landing and slashing again; however, no matter how hard the fencer fought, the forces of the undead didn't seem to end, no matter how many were felled by the young, green haired swordsman.

Nenshou was attacking with more and more ferocity, whereas before he was using more strategy. He was using less and less ninjutsu, and even less weapons; Nenshou attacked more with his whole body, fists, and head, smashing them to bits. His anger was rising. His chakra was bubbling. The Juubi no Urufu had awakened.

The black chakra slowly rose up in the physical form of steam, almost invisible. After awhile, there was just so much chakra around him, that it became visible. He was a huge black flaming mass of chakra.

Raking his chakra-made claws, Nenshou ripped out the throats of several hundred zombies. Zorlo didn't know what to think. Some kind of alternate guise?

"Oi, Nenshou, are you...Okay?" Zorlo yelled towards his opponent. Nenshou looked towards him, glaring. Something was wrong, the fencer thought. Nenshou charged towards him with god-speed, ripping zombies apart as he went. As soon as he got within hitting distance of Zorlo, his fist shot forward like a bullet, smashing Zorlo in the head. He flew back into a pile of zombies.

"GRRRRRRRRAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Nenshou yelled, breathing white fire into the mass of the Undead. Zorlo managed to dodge the flame, and tried to block another of Nenshou's punches with his buckler, but Nenshou's speed was too great, and he smashed Zorlo in the same side of the face. This time he took the hit without moving, and slashed with his sword.

"Damn!" Zorlo whispered; The chakra shallowed the hit; Not deep enough. Nenshou spun around and bashed Zorlo in the head with the back of his hand.

OoC: That demon thing? Yeah, that'll wear off eventually.
It's like the Kyuubi chakra, except stronger. And Nenshou is completely possessed this time. He has the same features as Naruto with Kyuubi chakra, besides the lines.

The blow to the face caused the fencer to slide back and spit out some blood as the newly possessed ninja stood in front of him; the boy's black chakra was not unlike something Zorlo had seen in the past, and the Aura Master knew all to well how demon possession like this occurred. The fencer stepped back; taking note of the zombies still rising from the ground and getting ready to fight against the two, and the fencer knew he could use this power the boy had to his advantage. The swordsman took a fighting stance and readied for the demon enchanted warrior to strike.

The fencer's eyes closed, and he could read all of the auras that surrounded him, the strongest of which burned from the boy, and was darker then the night sky. The fencer's ability to see a person's aura was slowly becoming stronger, and he could now measure his foes aura that they were giving out, and seeing as the youth had no control over his energy, it poured out like a liquid from a container. Since his power is so poorly restrained, I shouldn't need to use my own aura to battle this strange black energy. If I move properly, I shouldn't need to attack until he's finished wiping out these undead, the fencer plotted to himself as he saw a quick movement of the boy's aura and sidestepped at the demon possessed ninja ripped through a large line of the dead and turned back to face the fencer.

The young ninja had no control over the insane power that leaked from his body as he moved to all fours and charged like a dog. The green haired man stood still until the demon launched himself upwards and missed again, ripping through another large number of zombies. Suddenly, a small amount of white appeared amongst the black and grew as the boy sucked in air. Slowly, the youth's upper body filled with energy as he shot white flames from his mouth; the fencer grinned as the attack came and quickly jumped to the side as the flames incinerated a large number of undead, but the boy's assault was not done as he charged head on at the swordsman and quickly launched himself up, throwing a powerful punch, which the fencer ducked under and delivered a powerful kick to the boy's chest and threw him back a good ways.

"That seemed effective," the fencer mumbled as he opened his eyes to watch the boy stand up slowly. There was no style or system to the ninja's attacks now, just endless madness and rage that were emanating off of him. "And yet, I don't think you'll be staying down to long, will you?" The fencer asked sadly as he watched the boy stand up and ready himself to fight again. "Alright, come at me then!" The fencer commanded as he readied his sword for combat again.

***o=)---------- ----------(=o***

The necromancer looked down upon the battlefield and smiled, a white energy still radiating from the fencer's short sword that the undead master gripped tightly. "So, you have shown yourself. Before long now, you will be free, little demon, and your energies will be absorbed into my being." His grotesque yellow teeth emerged again as he held the book of spells he used up and continued to chant, raising more and more zombies as the creatures were ripped apart by the battling warriors.

Suddenly, a black energy emerged and a figure stepped out from inside of it, looking at the necromancer. "Zias, do not let your guard down, the demon that lives in that boy is strong," the dark clad man stated.

"Worry not, Ozzac, for soon, this battle shall end. Soon, the demon's energies will become exhausted and we'll have both him and the power of the Neko Goddess in our control!" The necromancer stated as he laughed wildly.

"Best hope we do, or else you shall suffer for your failure... That is, unless they have already killed you," the black clad man stated and laughed as he vanished back into the darkness.

The summoner of the dead became angry and looked down at the clashing warriors. "I won't fail, and I'll destroy you both!" He roared as his chanting began again, calling to the dead to fight for him again.

OoC: Sorry 'bout the wait. New computer ^^

BiC: Nenshou was now completely out of control. The black, almost solid chakra of which the Juubi had an almost unlimited amount of, blocked all his senses and incapacitated his brain. The only thing Nenshou had control of was his sight, which was cut off by the black chakra tightly strapped to him.

He raked his chakra claws, which Zorlo dodged. He sweeped with his chakra tail, which Zorlo blocked. Every time the fencer struck forth, it would be to shallow, as if the layer of chakra surrounding the boy was actually thick. The demon within him was releasing itself slowly. He soon went from One-Tailed Jinchuuriki to Two-Tailed Jinchuuriki. His speed and strength was increasing at an unstoppable rate.

As the two battled it out, though, they knew not of the necromantic undead slowly massing his army. The undead it was raising were more powerful, more advanced, smarter, and bigger. They were wielding weapons made of onyx, armor made of ebony, and were more fleshy and disgusting.
There were hundreds. And the necromancer was still summoning them.

Nenshou charged at Zorlo in a full-body tackle, which he dodged just barely. That caused Nenshou to smash into a nearby tree. This did not phase him in any way, though, and he just charged again. This one hit him, and sent him spiraling upwards. Nenshou didn't give him an opportunity to even think, and was on him again, grabbing him with an extended hand of chakra and throwing him straight down. The fencer struggled to get up.

"Damn it, he's too out of control...I thought I had this," he whispered to himself. He picked up his blade, which he had dropped, and threw himself at Nenshou.

A hand, no, three, stopped him.

"Rokuhando no Bangai complete...Oi. My name's Kijuuki Inmetsu. I don't mean to interrupt your battle or anything, but I must reinforce Nenshou-kun's seal. Excuse me for a moment, boy." Zorlo could only watch as the demon boy went into full-body paralysis from a simple technique of Kijuuki's. He made three sets of handseals, one for each set of his six hands, and slammed Nenshou in the stomach. The Juubi's chakra retreated, and the man disappeared without a word. Nenshou didn't remember anything that happened, and the undead army was marching towards them.

OoC: Sorry bout that ending, but Kijuuki is like, god. So he can do that ^_^

The fencer watched as the man with six hands performed a quick group of hand seals and caused the black energy from the boy vanish. The man introduced himself, and then vanished as if he had never been there, getting away from the battle before it started again. The fencer, if this were anime, would have had a massive sweat drop moment right now, but instead, he just sighed and moved towards the boy as the much large undead began to rise, roaring angrily at the warriors. The boy slowly rose to his feet, holding his head and complaining unintelligibly about something, this the fencer mostly ignored, and slowly rose, looking around at the massive number of foes.

"What the hell happened?" The ninja asked, holding his head.

"Your aura went black, and you became some kind of unstoppable killing machine. Some guy with six arms stepped in and stopped you," the fencer stated as if it were an everyday occurrence. "How are you feeling?" The golden bladed warrior asked, looking at the boy, rather then noticing the advancing dead.

"Six arms... Six arms?" The ninja warrior asked as he rubbed his head, thinking about it silently. "Who do I know with six... Kijuuki-kun!" He stated. "Where'd he go?!" The youth demanded.

"I don't know," the warrior said, shrugging at the boy and stepping slightly way from him. "But I have yet to see my sword, so if you wouldn't mind returning it to me so I can leave," the Aura Master told the boy, pointing his golden blade at the youth. Slowly, a zombie had drawn close to the warrior from behind, and now swung a massive scythe like weapon down upon the warrior, who suddenly seemed to vanish, and instants afterwards, the zombie was split in half, black blood spurting from the wound that split it vertically.

"Dammit! I told you! I don't have your dumb blade. Now then, where were we?!" The ninja warrior asked, turning as one of the undead warriors attacked from behind. As the undead's sword came down, the ninja appeared, fold up shuriken in hand, and sliced the creature's head off with ease. As the maimed body fell to the ground, the two warriors charged, the two blades clashing, causing sparks to shoot from when they collided.

"You are strong, but you can't defeat me," the fencer stated, pushing his blade forwards, causing the young ninja to slide back slightly as he gripped the handle of his folded up weapon tightly. "But you have impressed me, so let us not let the fun end here!" The Aura Master roared as he pushed hard, throwing the boy stumbling back, and following up with a quick kick to the youth's chest, throwing him through a zombie. "You are very strong, and whence you harness that dark aura, you'll be stronger, but for now, you need to train hard. Keep going though, you'll get me one day," the Aura Master told the youth, waving him on to attack again.

Nenshou only wanted to chase after his long-lost old teacher for a moment, completely forgetting about their battle together. Now he realized between the amassing undead and advancing fencer, he couldn't go anywhere.

"I may not look the type, but I really don't like to be underestimated...Now I can't run," he said, whipping his now unfurled Fuuma Shuriken straight towards Zorlo. When he dodged, the ninja appeared behind him.

"I won't fall for the same trick twice!" the fencer said, striking in back of himself. He only hit air.

"Rasengan!" Nenshou yelled, slamming it into Zorlo's stomach. In midspin, though, he quickly got himself off the ball and came down to strike at Nenshou. Having nothing to block with, he slung forth his arm, which caught the blow completely, right in the palm. The sword went completely through, but that was a good thing, for Nenshou jerked away the fencer's sword. The sword dislodged itself from his hand, now on the ground a few yards away, into a mass of of the vile Legion. A flurry of shuriken and a Goukakyuu no Jutsu sliced their numbers down fast.

Nenshou was making handseals.

"Katon, Ryuka no Jutsu!" he yelled, letting all the flame hit the hilt of the sword. The hilt did not weaken, or catch fire, but it did glow white-hot. Zorlo almost made a charge for it, but before he could Nenshou was at his throat, throwing shuriken and charging in with a flaming punch. Zorlo's buckler caught the shuriken, and he caught the punch. And the Heruka Kobushi worked.

"Gah! What the hell was that?" the fencer yelled, jumping back while clutching his singed hand. They both jumped back into a horde of the undead, which kept them busy for about a minute, kicking and pounding through. Nenshou then made a single handseal.

And was gone. The fencer looked around for sight of the ninja, but no ninja could he find. But Nenshou found him, or atleast his feet found the fencer's jaw. He pounced back wards from the shadows, almost in a mule kick, smashing Zorlo upwards.

The disarmed one landed near his sword, and quickly grabbed for it. Although the hilt was still hot, he bore the pain, and waved Nenshou on once more. Nenshou was happy to oblige, cracking his knuckles and charging the fencer as well as a group of zombies with a Fuuma Shuriken.

The fencer quickly began to wrap his aura around the hilt of his sword and using it to draw in the cool night breeze to cool his hand down. The fencer smiled, knowing all to well that their were zombies rising behind him, and he'd use them to help fight this boy; watching the youth charge blindly at the swordsman, who moved himself into a battle ready stance. The boy's continued movement, and the sound of moans coming from the dead gave the fencer time to prepare his counter attack.

The boy caused the blades of his weapon to becoming a shuriken and threw it at the fencer, who quickly leapt up, and the zombies, who were quickly shredded. The fencer watched as the boy seemingly vanished. The boy reappeared and grabbed his four bladed weapon and threw it again at the fencer, who quickly turned and grabbed the multi bladed weapon in his empty hand. The boy landed on the ground and looked at the fencer, who held his fold up shuriken in his hand. The boy smiled and drew a pair of kunai, readying them for combat. The boy charged again, his arms back, both with weapons in hand, as the boy leapt up and threw a kunai at the fencer, who stepped to the side to avoid it. The ninja followed up by throwing his second kunai at the fencer, who moved his body slightly to evade it.

The fencer now had two kunai stuck in a tree behind himself. He had moved into a trap, but something about the trap seemed incomplete, but the fencer wasn't sure what. The green haired man's right hand tightened its grip on the fuuma shuriken which he had intercepted from his foe. The swordsman pointed his rapier at the boy and smiled. "Good plan, but you are missing a part," the fencer stated as he threw his right hand to the side and prepared to throw the four bladed weapon back to his foe.

"Really?!" The shinobi asked mockingly, pulling his head back and jerking the four bladed weapon from the fencer's hand, and caught it as he straightened himself out to stare at the young swordsman. The ninja jumped back and threw the fuuma shuriken at the fencer who merely held his hand out, knowing all to well how to stop that weapon. A sudden jerk caused the weapon to veer off course and fly around the fencer, embedding its blade into the tree behind the young warrior as the boy landed and began to perform a series of hand seals. "Secret attack, complete," he stated as he finished his last hand sign. "Katon, Ryuka no Jutsu," the boy yelled as fire appeared and ran down the strings.

"This trick again," the fencer stated as he moved his sword and slashed the wires that were being used to transfer the flames, keeping his eye on his foe, who vanished after the strings were cut. The fencer suddenly moved his sword to his side, blocking the blade of the fuuma, which folded up as the boy struck, and placed the two warriors in combat again. Suddenly, the fencer ducked and spun quickly, driving his heel into Nenshou's back and throwing the young fighter forwards, pushing his face through the mud. "What did that guy call that move again?" The young swordsman asked himself as he watched the boy rise slowly. "Oh yeah! Leaf hurricane," the fencer stated as the ninja spit some dirt from his mouth and gripped his blade tightly, readying to fight the fencer again. "Well now? Let us continue," the Aura Master stated as he waved his foe to strike again.
