The Beast Within [Event Kumo]

Administrator Posts : 1430 Join date : 2015-02-27 Age : 28

The time was coming up to midday in Kumogakure, the village looked to be in good spirits. The people residing in had nothing to fear as of yet, as currently there was no reminder to humanity of just what their trespasses has wroth against them. The village remained its cloudy self which provided the perfect cover. Before long a metaphoric darkness embraced the whole village. The tension rose rapidly as if to signify the impending doom about the come. The usually cool cloudy village felt heated, with sinister presences lurking. Moving from point A to point B and from C to D respectively as if stalking prey. And that is exactly what the hidden cloud village was viewed as. It was prey for the sinister forces at work. The clouds and mountainous backdrop created the perfect setting. A massive silhouette lurked, moving swiftly revealing red fur at certain points. Then there was the waving of four large tails.

This was indeed a creature now stalking the village, within a monkey leap of the gates. A great shadow was soon cast over the village. The ruling light during the day taking a back seat for the moment. Crouched down, one could hear the sound of drums being beaten vigorously. These drums though or the sound of them were created by the Monkey King banging his massive hands against his chest. The chakra seeping from the creature aided it in creating this effect. The beast began to huff and puff before charging forward at the gates. A massive roll then a comical belly flap smash tore down the gates. Or what could be seen as the gates. At the same time a massive crater was left in the ground where the beast landed. A loud roar came from the beast as it crouched once more. The roar transitioning into a massive shock wave which blew away most things that was in its path. The four tails Bijuu took a swipe at some oncoming Shinobi, crushing them as a result.

To think that they would approach in such a careless manner. The civilians screamed in horror, as they took succumbed to the fury of the Bijuu. This was Son Goku and he was here to judge the Shinobi of Kumogakure. However he was not alone, since there was something else far more disastrous accompanying Son Goku, although it was not yet seen. The great monkey king decided to cause a lot of havoc on its own, choosing the advance further into the village. Its massive Chakra levels was crushing, and was made up of pure hate.

Kai.

Kumogakure

Kai heard the commotion first, the blonde rushing out of the doughnut shop she had spent thirty minutes within conversing with a man known simply as Glazed Raspberry, a doughnut in her mouth. Yellow eyes immediately took note of the screams of panicked villagers running down the street, lingering on them for a moment before shifting over to what the possible cause was. Her eyes widened and the doughnut that had been in her mouth dropped to the ground, forgotten by the shocked blonde. There was a massive monkey within the village, the beast towering over most if not all of the buildings within Kumogakure. It was the biggest creature she had ever seen before in her life and the fact that it terrorized the village made it rather frightening. She understood why the people were running now, that thing could definitely kill them with absolutely no effort on it’s part and it was scary to them.

The young Hyuga blinked her eyes several times to ensure she was not just seeing things, rubbing at them on several occasions, but the monkey with red fur was still there. This was bad, really bad. She bite her lower lip and returned to the doughnut shop, instructing Glazed Raspberry to flee before disembarking from the shop with a fresh doughnut in her mouth. She stood on the street of Kumogakure, paying no mind to the people who pushed pass her in their panic, those yellow eyes locked onto the monkey with four tails. She didn’t know what it was, she wasn’t aware of the incident that had occurred in Iwagakure, but she wondered if they had somehow angered the beast. If so, she wished to know how and rather or not she could reason with it. She glanced behind her, her eyes flickering between the beast and the villagers. She was deciding rather or not she should get them to safety or face the four tailed monkey.

God, she wished there was some sort of protocol for this, though there was probably one that she simply forgotten. Either way, escorting the villagers would be the safer option and would pretty much improve her chances of survival. Yet, the ten-year-old didn’t have many self-preservation bones in her small body and she wasn’t inclined to listen to her instincts very often, so she decided that she would confront the tailed beast and find out why it decided to attack Kumogakure. She hoped it could speak as she left the streets of Kumogakure for the rooftops, it being a more efficient way to travel than on a crowded street of panicked people. She continued to stare at the four tailed monkey as she crouched on the roof, examining its movements for a brief second before heading over to it. Kai wasn’t sure if the beast wished to reason with her or at least communicate to her what they had done, but she hoped it did.

She may know nothing about the tailed beast, but she knew that fighting it would result in her demise and there was still a lot of doughnuts that she wished to try out. So, dying wasn’t on the agenda for this blonde Hyuga.

Diana stood on the roof of an old one story ramen shop that was in about the middle of town. She was laying on her back looking into the grey sky above. The weather today was incredibly breezey, strong winds were flying through the air above. Because the village was so high up the wind force and storms could get very crazy. Sometimes the wind would come so suddenly and forcefully that it could push a person back a few meters. Diana loved this kind of weather, the wind reminded her of her mother. Diana was just about to doze off for a nap when a sudden earthquake shook the village, and a chorus of beautiful screams arose from the people. Diana sat up just in time to see a massive crater formed 55 meters straight ahead of her where a giant red ape was just about to sit up from what appeared to be a massive belly flop. Diana had never seen an animal such as this before. Perhaps it was some mutated animal from below the mountain, or a summon, either way Diana knew she would have to help deal with it. Forming the clone seal a copy of herself would form a couple feet to the right of her. The copy would jump down from the roof and take off its jacket, revealing the open back black french corset underneath. This Diana would spread her wings and take off 30 meters into the sky moving at her max speed towards the monkey. When Diana found herself 20 meters to the left of the monkey and 20 meters above the monkey it had just swiped some shinobi away with its right hand. Quickly Diana formed the tiger hand seal causing a fluttering of white feather to descend below towards the red ape. "Look at how beautiful the feathers are, it's good to just stop and keep still sometimes to take in the beauty around you isn't it?" Clone Diana spoke using her charm speak to hopefully persuade the beast to keep still for a moment so her feathers could lure it to a deep sleep. The original Diana would still be sitting up on the roof of the raman shop suppressing her chakra and waiting to see what the beast would do, ready to react to any miscalculation.

The ground rocked, back and forth as Dominick hung from his room's ceiling as he completed his daily work-out. He was almost finished before he was startled by repeated shaking coming from somewhere within the village knocking his body out of concentration and allowing gravity to take effect. As he collided with the ground, he rubbed the back of his head as it caught a blow from the end of his bed. Rising to his feet he looked out his window as debris flew past, and local shops closing before their natural time periods. A mass group of civilians ran past, trampling over each other running in fear. The quakes became more ferocious, and started to concern Dominick. With a quick twirl, he gathered his equipment from his desk, and descended down into the street below, closer towards the walls to avoid being trampled. "Whats going on!,grabbing the shoulder of his neighbors father as he rushed through with luggage down the street."Its....Its here. S..So....Son GOKU!" His voice crippled throughout the sentence as if he'd give out right then and there. He began running along the walls, avoiding the pushing of civilians. He spotted a 3 academy students disappear into the debris & wreckage of crates a few meters ahead of him, and no one seemed to stop, to help them except a medical Nin. Dom stopped next to him, assisting him lift the crate off the children."1..2..3...LIFT!", using his overwhelming strength he accumulated over the past few years, he lifted the cart with ease with the help of the Med Nin. "Sorry, But Can you take care of them?, with a head nod of satisfaction, he dashed forward approaching a ramen shop, with a shinobi standing on-top.

As he ran up the side of the shop, he thought of his chances of making it out of this situation. The negative energy of the area was effecting his composure making him think of ridiculous scenarios of post-death, when he knew very well that the prodigy of the Kumo would't die easily. He appeared next to a lovely female, not far over his age, commencing her battle strategy. "I'm at your assistance ma'am.

((OOC:Currently skipping Alice's post due to the ban. So Hideaki just carry on))

Tic toc tic, something was being wound up, since why Son Goku the four tailed Bijuu rampaged having advanced into the village. There was something else lurking outside the village, amassing a large concentration of Chakra. This hidden thing was preparing a Bijuu dama, which will only spell destruction for the village. Son Goku was also capable of this, and one was beginning to wonder if the Kumogakure Shinobi were simply lazy bastards. This didn't matter to Son at all, since with less resistance, the easier it was for him to smash those worthless Shinobi into nothingness. The Bijuu in all honesty has already foreseen the death and destruction that mankind was about to bring upon itself. It wasn't be coincidence that the Bijuu decided to appear now at all. There was a deep hate, and it was being fed by the greed of mankind. The willingness to wage war among themselves, while knowing what war would eventually mean. The Bijuu all remember a time when mankind sought to use them as weapons for their own gain. Son Goku was far too proud to even want to be seen as a pet for anyone of these individuals now.

They had no honor and Son was far too proud to ever want to succumb to such things. The amassing of this sinister Chakra continued. Son Goku in the mean time roared in anger, since neither the man woman or child was about the be spared. Best to do away with them all before they have a chance to plunge the world into nothingness. These creatures who refer to themselves and mankind were being vile than the nine tailed beasts put together. Mankind as it happens is the personification of evil and not the Bijuu themselves. The four tails settled for but a moment, seeking out prey. Having noticed a few fodder Shinobi encroaching on its position. The four tails folded its right hand into a fist before punching the ground. This caused a violent quake to happen of great seismic proportions. The earth was torn apart before it, leading and spreading into the village. Houses and other buildings and establishments caught in its path began to crumble and fall down. Son Goku banged its hands against it chest, before spewing forth some intense flames from its mouth. The oncoming fodder of Shinobi were either destroyed by the quake and some were burned to a crisp.

The four tails moved away from the immediate destruction, where the earth was torn apart. Son wasn't about to become a victim of his own doing. Meanwhile a daring young woman closed in on Son's position. They looked innocent enough, but he wasn't about to hold a conversation. His left hand rose above his head and came down into an hammer blow. Aiming for the girl (Kai) while showing no mercy. If anything she needed to get away from Son and fast. The beast with red fur also began to amass a great deal of Chakra now, charging up a Bijuu Dama of its own. It still begas the question, was there anyone out there that could possibly stop Son Goku from causing further destruction? The worst was yet to come and that was a certainty. If one Bijuu attacks then it surely becomes an issue. But with two potentially attacking at the same time. Then the village's resources will be stretched thin, leading to more success for the Bijuu themselves.

This was of course a tactical approach on the part of creatures deemed to be too stupid. The point is, the Bijuu are far more intelligent than people would normally give them credit for. This is what one refers to as a calculated assault. A plan than that best utilize the rage of the Bijuu and turn it into a weapon against Mankind.

Kai.

Kumogakure

Kai was confused by the actions of the monkey with red fur. It seemed overwhelmingly pissed at the people who dwelled within the village for reasons the blonde couldn’t discern. She was pretty sure they hadn’t pissed up an oversized monkey, they weren’t that stupid to incur the wrath of a behemoth without a way to combat it. She wondered where the hell the council was seeing how they should’ve been combating the beyond angry monkey by now. She hoped they hadn’t been defeated by the monkey, that would diminish Kumogakure’s ability to handle the four tailed beast significantly. Thinking about the absence of the council had her concerned about the rest of the shinobi force, namely the Jounin and Sp. Jounin. Most were probably dead. She hoped her father wasn’t amongst them.

Yellows eyes narrowed as they bore witness to the needless destruction the monkey was causing. One would consider how many people had been slain by the ruthless beast, but Kai decided that she would not concern herself with that. Instead, she would busy herself with survival and hopefully those more capable would show up soon to drive it away. She was lucky to not be within the radius of the monkey’s self-made earthquake, though she still felt the vibration as it traveled through the ground. It was followed up by fire being spewed from its mouth, incinerating anyone who hadn’t been crushed to death or severely injured by the debris flying about courtesy of the four tailed beast. Everyone twenty meters in front of it would be engulfed in flames unless they fled or took refuge amongst the debris.

She wasn’t all that close, so she didn’t witness their demise, but she was close enough to smell burnt flesh and to hear the screams of the dying and those who fled the area. Her nose wrinkled in disgust, but otherwise she ignored the tragedy occurring around her. She would refused to be bothered by any of it until the perpetrator was gone and even then she probably be in too much shock to actually mourn - if she were capable of such a thing and if she were alive to do so. Yet, despite the destruction and countless deaths caused by the monkey, Kai still wished to reason with it or at least get its side of the story. She wanted to know what wrong the village had committed, but she would need to get to a relatively safe place before she could question it.

First was to evade the blow that would certainly crush her small body and she could do that with ease. Halting her movement, she pushed herself to another building before dropping to the ground on the other side of said building. She was no out of sight as well as out of harms way and she took that moment to quickly advance towards the monkey. Kai didn’t have the best view of the attacker, but she could see enough to know that it was charging something up. For a flitting second she thought about turning her happy behind around and fleeing the scene, but the thought was there for a flitting second.

She would hop onto one of several buildings that remained standing five meters away from the beast. With fist clenched, she screamed, “stop. What did we do to you!”

(OOC: I'm late as is, so I'm gonna skip formatting, I apologise, I'll come back and edit it in on a later date, no words will change though)

Elixar was late, so late in fact that the metaphorical party had already started. He'd rushed from the blacksmith's house after a piece of debris skidded past him from the direction of the gates. Alarmed by this, his first instinct was to first protect his only friend. He had run back in the direction of the shop, seeing it mostly dismembered by a large rock that had been hurtled through the air and crashed down on the front of the shop. Alarmed by this he leapt over the boulder into the shop's walls and scanned the area for his companion, calling out for his personal blacksmith. He was met by the coughing and spluttering of his dwarven friend, he was trapped under some of the rubble, his short legs trapped underneath a larger plank of wood, immediately Elixar went to work at making his friend more comfortable, propping up his head and checking for bleeding. He was by no means a medical ninja but at the very least he new to look for bleeding and any major injuries. He picked the rubble away from his legs carefully so as not to cause any major discomfort when he did so. He pulled one leg free, the blacksmith groaned in discomfort but was forced to grit his teeth as he asked for Elixar to ignore him and pull the next leg out. Elixar was cautious of his hands, if he was careless here he could get hurt and that would be a dis-service by not keeping his hands in good condition when using his treasured sword. He knew that the village was in danger so there was no help if he got injured doing this. He quickly pulled the leg free and ran straight from the shop, calling back to say that he would be back as soon as he was done with what was happening.

As he got there - fashionably late as all main characters do - Elixar could see that the rest of his team mates were already there, preparing to fight what would be a monstrous enemy. None other than the monkey king himself, Son Goku, more well known as the 4 tailed beast. He was not on speaking terms with any of the members with the exception of one, the prodigy of the same age - Dominick Hideaki. He'd recently done a mission with the boy and although they weren't the most well synchronised of team mates, having worked together once was better than nothing.

As the meaty fist smashed down on a building, he saw a young blonde jump from the rooftops, avoiding being smushed into oblivion by the giant monkey. She shouted at the beast, her words were laced with naiveté, he hopped up behind here, taking a brief second to survey what was left of his surroundings and see what positions his team mates were in. It was safest by the young girl despite her being in the position that almost got her killed moments ago. His steps were light, barely making a sound as he stepped onto the rooftops.

"Don't expect your words to reach it. Whilst intelligent - beasts are still beasts." He was staring straight on at the giant ape made of pure chakra. If anyone was careless here or they didn't work together, the casualties would extend past the multitude of unknowns that fell to the colossal beast's entrance and rampage. He placed his hands together to make the ox seal. He wasn't particularly sure if it was a good idea to test out a technique he'd made himself unfamiliar with. But the basics were often the best, and when his clan's basics were the preface for their finishers, he didn't really have a choice. If he was going to be of any use to his home, he would need to pull out all the stops. He imagined a cloud as he faded away from the young blonde, whilst he wanted to be a diplomat, he knew that it would be a wasted effort. If he was going to talk to Son Goku, then he would have to earn his respect, and in the animal kingdom, beasts respected power, so Kumo would need to show their power with their limited numbers. His hands shifted to the other two seals to form a technique he'd pretty much forgotten in his searching for his sword.

(OOC: Are their any stats for the Beast?)

The screams of innocent lives, became rather distant or silent in the matter of the next few minutes of which Dominick had arrived on the battlefield with the smell of death. Not only was it unusual for him to be working with a team, if you could say that in the situation the few assembled Shinobi faced. The tailed beast were creatures of legend, power to wipe out the masses without strain. Dominick's father didn't have much information about them in his journals except for a bit about how power their power is ranked among-st the quantity of their tails. "4", it wasn't that great of a number compared to "9" but this "4" was doing a great deal of damage to their home. Dominick's watched as the beast rampaged around, blindly ripping his home apart. His support would be needed in the matter, but he was also faced with reality, the reality of his true power, the reality that he could meet his fate....if he wasn't careful.

He could hear a faint voice nearby being overpower by the constant winds produced by the beast pressure. The voice seemed somewhat familiar, though it was talking to someone else on the battle field. Cocking his head behind him, his old ally Elixar, a Shinobi from a previous mention pertaining to the elimination of rogue-nin had just joined the battle field. "Elixar....It's good to see your unharmed.", though their cooperation in the last mission wasn't top flight, this time it wouldn't be the same. For the fact that they were all gathered for the same reason. They wouldn't let nothing destroy their home & the peace that they had been fighting for. "Shadow Clone Technique", from mid-air erected 3 clones, to the front-lines. Dominick knew his selection of technique's wouldn't be as valuable in this fight due to his close ranged experience, but he'd help as much as he could from a distant. "Let's beat his big as down to our level", boosting his own confidence pointing directly at Son Goku, Dominick felt of surge of energy flow through his body. His clones began to grin in unison, as they did have part of Dominick's "Prodigy Mindset" themselves. Two of the clones pounced off of the current platform towards the Son Goku. As they descended near his feet, they both exchanged punched into his kneecap. In effect Son Goku's leg buckled for a few seconds, as he attempted to swat away the clones who had fell back a few meters away from its big toe. "Any non-suicidal ideas?",expressing a bit of sarcasm.

More and more Kumo Shinobi had begun to gather and if Son wasn't busy trying to destroy them all. Then he may well have praised their response to the current crisis. With that said, the number of Shinobi confronting the four tails wasn't quite enough at this point in time. The creature of great pride felt severely underestimated. This alone was enough to stir up the anger of the beast, all the while his companion was planning something devious. Judging by the looks of it all, no one even bothered to check in on the eight tails. Son Goku was simply a distraction right now. The eight tails was the real threat, since what it had planned will cause more devastation than imaginable. Be that as it may, Son Goku is the one currently in the thick of it all. The Bijuu had been charging up a Bijuu dama while the many Shinobi encroached on its position. Moving on though, the four tails had a pesky little girl to deal with. The beast attacked and it would appear that he missed his target. The end result was the building collapsing under the power of the Bijuu. Its massive hands and momentum meant it could cause a lot more devastation than a mere human. In this case size does matter, and Son was a big boy too.

The Bijuu wasn't left alone for long since the girl was back at it again. This time screaming at the Bijuu at a distance of five meters away from the creature. To think that she would get so close and not expect to suffer any consequences as a result. This is what made the Bijuu think that the girl was underestimating him. While the Chakra for the Bijuu dama charged up and reached its completion. Two others came to accompany the young woman, with her standing five meters away. They all stood at the same distance, albeit on a building. A great deal of Chakre manifested from the beast, forming a powerful cloak around it. This happened in time for the boy to attack with his clones, attempting to punch away at the kneecaps of the Bijuu. The punches were weak, and were more like a fly landing on your body much to your annoyance. A vicious tail whipped around and intercepted the attack, swatting the two clones away. The speed of the Bijuu's tail proving perhaps to fast to even attempt to evade. The Bijuu wasn't yet finished though as it punched the ground again. This time however it wasn't an earthquake that came of it. A tidal wave of hot molten lava and rock rose up in the air. The end result was lava pouring down on those in the immediate vicinity. The speed of the lava and large molten rocks was reminiscent of a volcano erupting and one can liken it to that.

Son Goku was showing off his ability now. The sudden rise of the lava and molten rocks saw it towered over the buildings. This meant the building that the girl and two other males stood on. Namely Elixar, Kai and Hideaki. The attack covered a large area, rushing forth at devastating speeds and without mercy. This attack was an S-rank level attack and no measly defense will be able to withstand it at all. The people who were too close may find themselves drenched in lava and burned to a crisp. The attack covered a sixty five meter wide area, and rose higher then the buildings. It would move forward from its source and end up a good hundred meters before slowing down at all. Son Goku soon hopped backwards as it to give itself some room. With one leaped it opened up a gap of thirty meters. Without anymore warning, the Bijuu dama was released. But it wasn't released as just a massive ball of destruction. Son Goku manipulated it, and use it as a continuous beam. The Bijuu turned its massive head, while covering an even great area. Everything within fifty meters on either side of the beast and even further in front, mirroring the travels of the lava was destroyed.

Explosions went off in the area in front of and away from Son Goku, leaving the Bijuu unharmed by any of its own attacks. Smoke rose high into the air skies as screams and weeping could be heard. There was a momentary stillness, all the while Son Goku was growling in anger. There was a lot more devastation to come, and it wasn't about to give any quarters whatsoever. With the way the attacks of the beast transpired, the young girl who attempted to reason with the beast was most likely barbecued right now. The same for the lad who attempted to disturb the beast with clone punches. The same goes for anyone silly enough to lurk in the vicinity during that time.

(Will post the Bijuu stats soon. And Elixar, did you just train a Jutsu in the event? Did you get permission for that?)

Kai.

Kumogakure

Kai looked over her shoulder. Yellow eyes locked onto the Jounin’s form and a frown crossed her face. She wasn’t all that happy about his sudden presence and it showed in her demeanor. Her eyes would linger on the man for a brief five seconds before shifting back to the rampaging monkey that was five meters in front of her. She folded her arms, the frown being maintained as she gave him what could only be the cold shoulder. “You are late,” she said, her tone icy and the only thing needed for the man to know that she wasn’t pleased by his tardiness. He should’ve been the first one to respond to this threat and she wondered what he had been doing all this time that he could only show up now. She wouldn’t ask though, the blonde shaking her head and placing her hands upon her hips as she walked to the edge of the roof. Despite being beyond displeased, her frustration with the entire situation wasn’t evident in her eyes which had remained soft and if the monkey would chill out for a second, he or she would realize that they seemed to communicate that it had done enough and to cease destroying Kumogakure any further.

“I apologize in advance, Apple Fritter,” Kai said, her arms dropping to her side, “I really want to know what we did and I hoped we could talk, but…” Yellow eyes turned crimson as she proclaimed loudly, “I cannot allow you to destroy this village anymore than you already have.” Her mind quickly assumed a battle ready mindset, her goal to drive the four-tailed monkey out of the village before it released whatever was being charged up. She wasn’t sure what it was, but something told her that it would definitely do harm to those who still fled to safety as well as those who had stayed behind to direct the civilians to a safe place. An opportunity presented itself quickly, her eyes having caught the movement of the beast’s tail and without thinking she launched herself towards it. She backed up, knowing that she would need to build up some speed if she wished to latch onto it before it returned behind the monkey’s back. She ran, building up speed and once she got to the ledge of the building, she pushed herself off.

If she weren’t in the middle of saving her home, Kai would’ve probably noted that she was flying, but she was far too focused to do that. Her time in the air was short, the child grasping the tail of the monkey as it whipped back into place. Her hands would take hold of the fur, the blonde using all of her strength so she didn’t get knocked off by the speed. It seemed she was just in time too, the four-tailed beast unleashing molten rock with the ferocity of its attack. She felt the heat on her skin and she counted herself lucky for she would’ve been toast if she had stayed on the roof. Yet, she wouldn’t be allowed to really think about how screwed she would’ve been if she hadn’t jumped, for the beast leapt backwards. She clenched her fist tighter, the blonde having relaxed her grip as she was thinking about how fortunate she was, but it hadn’t been in time. The sudden movement had the girl descending to the ground, having lost her firm grasp on the fur. She would fall, quickly, too quickly to really adjust her body so that she could land safely and so she crashed into the building below.

The roof broke her fall, beams collapsing and falling around the girl. Pain blossomed throughout her tiny body, the blonde writhing around for a second as she hissed. Her eyes were shut tightly as she breathed in raggedly, the Hyuga attempting to breath in order to lessen the pain she felt like her father had taught her. It was well over ten seconds before she could handle the pain enough to move, but once she got up she noted that despite her back being on fire that nothing was broken. This was good, it meant that she could still fight albeit in pain and with the tidal wave of lava behind her, she was relatively safe… for now. She took a deep breath before she began to make her way out the house and onto the street. She winced as she entered the street, red eyes on the monkey that was twenty meters ahead of her. Kai grimaced, knowing that despite her injury that she would need to confront it. So, she pushed her pain to the back of her mind and sprinted about seventeen meters towards the four-tailed monkey. She made sure to stay hidden amongst the rubble, the blonde knowing that being seen by the monkey wasn’t a very good idea in her current condition.

(OOC: Checked with Ryu that it's cool to train during an event and I've gotten my guidelines, gonna use this post to round out the training of the previous jutsu so that it fits what I was told)

As was somewhat expected of a hot-headed genin, his tardiness was not met with as much lenience as one might have hoped, and was for good reason, being of a higher rank, one would usually have expected him to have been the first to arrive and already be drawn into combat before the others had even gotten there, instead he was the last of the Shinobi that were there to fight the giant beast. To make up for this, he'd make sure that he was there to attack the beast. His hands stayed connected with his fingers curled to make the Ox seal. He slid to the side of the roof and kicked off with as much pace as he could muster, the beast deciding that he was no longer going to wait around to destroy their humble village. He could feel the heat of the beast and its intensity blazing. As Elixar leapt from the building, to avoid becoming a scorch mark under the debris of the house that would soon cease to exist, the black trail of cloud emanated from his body, leaving a black mist trail of storm cloud. He focused on circling his chakra into his hands and into his body to release the vapour cloud with as much stability as possible. He had lost sight of Kai in his leap, the girl too had taken action, but she was no longer visible, but from her attitude, he doubted that he would have to try and identify her charred skeleton too soon. He cast his mind back to the technique he was trying to re-learn in a high pressure situation.

The kitchen, so to speak, was heating up to a blast furnace, with Son Goku, in his somewhat childish, monkey-like manner was needlessly displaying his ferocity by erupting all over the place and filling the streets with something that if it wasn't, at the very least resembled magma. Elixar adjusted his orientation in the air to make sure that he was in no position to fall when he touched on the house, stepping to the top and kicking off again in the same direction to start making a wide perimeter. It was in good time too as a beam of continuous destruction made the playing field just a little bit more hostile. No longer were they just dealing with a floor literally made of lava, but Son had decided that a literal death beam was by no means overkill and reduced most of their foot holds to rubble and dust. Getting close to the beast became not just dangerous, but incomprehensively unfavourable. Amidst the destruction, fire, and rubble, Elixar's vision caught glimpse of large round eyes in the background. His namesake, the octopus was there. 'Had that always been here?' He was about to call when he landed but was now met with the sight of his clouds higher in the air than he would have liked. The explosions had caused massive drafts that sent the clouds overhead too early, they weren't going to be picking up much moisture on the ground. Then he paused for only the briefest seconds, surveying the destruction around him - there certainly wasn't much moisture down here anyway. His throat pinged as if in agreement with this epiphany. He fed the clouds with chakra, urging them to grow and feed on the rising heat from the floor to swell and start flashing down brilliant bursts of white and pale blue lightning haphazardly down, making a small curtain in front of his allies to discourage the beast from a frontal assault, and hopefully a few wayward blasts leaving a little bit of a sting in the monkey's side.

Kai had been largely unsuccessful in her assault, but if he could keep attention away from the girl, and start coordinating something with his team mates in terms of distraction and attacks, they might be able to get out of it alive, a little tanned, but alive. At least, that was the plan whilst the Eight Tails sat in wait. He made a mental note that he would always have to watch out for it, if it - the second most powerful of the bijuu - were to make a move, he feared that no amount of planning on his end could make this go smoothly... as smoothly as hellfire and mass destruction went.

Standing on the rooftop platform not far from the towering 4 tailed Bijuu, who begun his next wave of destruction. Underestimating the shinobi of the Kumo, the bijuu showed off some of his world renown moves mostly around his Lava specialty. As he punched the ground lava flooded the near by area, cracked down the remaining buildings that withstood the previous acts of violence. Dominick had never seen a Bijuu up close before, this beast's power been unmatched except for the other 6 tailed beast that ranked up it. His body didn't allow him to freeze in place due to fear, he lived for moments like these when all doubt of the world was raining down among the living. The young genin Kai attempted another attack only to grab onto the fur of Son Goku avoiding said attack. It was a genius idea, being so close that it wouldn't hurt her, Dominick hadn't thought of something so simple,yet he called himself the Prodigy of the Kumo. His situation became even more stressful as he didn't have much of an arsenal to defend himself against the attack, an ordinary defense wouldn't last more than a mere second. His hands came together and created both Rabbit & Horse symbols with his fingers in that order, activating his brand new jutsu. "Sixth Sense....", his voice sounded low and dense. His skin began to heat up accumulating a bit of smoke, as his blood cells quickened under his skin. His speed & strength proceeded to grow greater than his usual self. Soon after he preformed his genin level "Body Flicker Technique" after forming the Ram Symbol. He had moved more than 60 meters in less than 3 seconds avoiding the possible death that could have accrued from the bijuu's physical devastation.

Dominick was still in clear view of the battlefield, just from a safe location. "Out of Sight, Out of Mind", without being in sight of the Bijuu, his life wouldn't be in the up-most danger. He laid his material's out and began making inventory and possible battle combinations. He remembered he had over 10 meters in ninja wire, and a few explosive tags at his disposal. "I'll cause an explosion, and have a few buildings fall on top of it", collatoral damage didn't cross his mind at the time. He assumed that the village evacuated for the most part, only wishing for death if they had stayed. With a kunai blade, he tied his ninja wire and 4 explosive tags along the wire across the street from his current position. The kunai had looped around a light post built into the side of a home, as he tied down the other end himself. He swiped his arm across his forehead wiping sweat off, this wasn't the most effective idea but it'll stall the 4 tails as long as he needed. He ended his Sixth Sense technique as he had no need for it, unless the eight tails made an unexpected appearance. His eyes locked on his comrade Elixar who was still close enough that the 4 Tails could do damage to him. In the event he would, Dominick would have to activate his trap earlier than expected to allow him time to escape. Now what was these Beast next move.....

Dark clouds would sweep over Kumogakure no Sato within seconds just before the beautifully destructive Yonbi jumped back, gusts of wind blowing in and it clearly didn't come from the direction of the Yonbi itself, no it was something else approaching the cloud village. Lightning struck the earth in succession, killing three bystanding civilians running for their lives from the Yonbi's approaching attack. The Hachibi was still preparing it's attack, waiting for the moment to unleash it's full strength against the cloud which would undoubtedly claim countless lives, maybe even some of these brave shinobi's lives in the process. As the clouds filled the area above Kumogakure no Sato, a purple mark would become visible on the Hachibi's body, glowing as it appeared. A second had passed after the mark started to glow, and by now the Yonbi had released it's destructive wave of bijuudama chakra against Kumogakure no Sato. A dark figure appeared beside the mark on the Hachibi, floating in the air through the use of the Flight technique. The only thing anyone would be able to make out was the figure's chakra. If one were to be able to taste chakra, they would without a doubt say the figure's chakra tasted of pure darkness, tainted with evil. "My dearest Gyuki.. It's time to leave. I'm taking all of you home, to your real home. There's been an issue, a Konohagakure shinobi has killed our brother, Kokuo, and captured Saiken. We will deal with the villages at another time. For now, we need to regroup and await the revival of Kokuo.. Come." As it finished it's sentence, the dark figure would place it's hand upon the beast it flew next to. The mark on the Yonbi's body would become visible, glowing with the same purple aura as the Hachibi's previously did. The entire time it spoke it would be using some sort of voice disguising jutsu, making the figure be heard throughout the village with a very deep voice, not allowing anyone to be able to discern if the figure was even male or female. The figure would appear beside the Yonbi along with the Hachibi, now touching the Yonbi's body as well. "Time to go, brother." It would say to the beast as it looked down on the village beneath it for a short few seconds, allowing the people to notice a dark silhouette of this person floating in the air above them, the eyes being the only true visible thing as it glowed with the same purple aura as with the two beasts' Flying Thunder God markings. It then disappeared along with the two beasts, taking the Hachibi's bijuudama with them. The unnatural clouds would leave the area as fast as it came to be, leaving only a smoking damaged village behind for all to see.

Kai.

Kumogakure

Kai blinked several times. She couldn’t help it for towering above the people of Kumogakure was the four-tailed monkey that had attacked them, an odd looking creature that was a mix of an ox and octopus, and an indistinguishable figure. She hadn’t known of two of the three that floated above her and her eyes widened as she came to the realization that they had been hiding the entire time. After witnessing the destruction caused by the four-tailed monkey, she could only imagine what was in store for them if the figure and the hybrid were to attack along with the monkey. Yet, they didn’t attack and that confused Kai the most. Her eyes narrowed on the figure specifically, yellow eyes attempting to get something more than tall, dark and scary in the description, but they were simply too high up for that. She glanced around, attempting to pinpoint a place high enough, but there were none.

Disappointed, she would shift her gaze back on the three who loomed above, waiting for the inevitable to happen. Kumogakure was defenseless and wiping it from the mountain would be a walk in the park after what the four-tailed monkey had done. The very thought of the village, granted half destroyed already, being wiped out had her grinding her teeth. Her hands balled into fist and she went to make a move, but she suddenly stopped all movement as the three suddenly disappeared. Her eyes flickered around, seeking out the three enemies, but she could not locate them. They had vanished into thin air. Despite the threats being gone, Kai was still rather tense, knowing that they could return any moment, but she allowed herself to relax when they didn’t return five minutes later.

It had been a bad idea for the pain rushed back to the forefront of her mind. The only thing that took her mind off it was the simple fact that she knew she had to rescue anyone who may have survived the destruction caused. She also knew that the villagers as well as those who had fled with said villagers that the threat was gone, but that Kumogakure was severely damaged. With the possibility of the threats returning to the village, Kai knew that the council would need to decide rather or not they rebuilt the village on the mountain or somewhere else, that’s if they were still alive. She had doubts that they would move down the mountain, but she had also thought that there was nothing that could destroy Kumogakure and she had been proven wrong.

If she wasn’t worried about rescuing those who had survived the destruction she would’ve probably cried.

What had just happened, Dominick stood there knelled on his right knee, holding his right shoulder which had been dislocated. He hadn't noticed until his adrenaline had began to fade away. The pain wasn't much, it was more irritating rather than hurtful. He waited for the unavoidable, the moment his village would be blown away by one of the sacred beasts of the land. It bothered him dearly as he false claimed the title "Prodigy", for the fact he couldn't do much against the bijuu let alone do any serious damage towards it. He allowed his composure to break, his eyes turned red after the 2 beasts, and their mysterious counter-part vanished into the air. His pride didn't allow him to cry, but his eyes gained even a redder color in the next minutes. A single tear rolled down his cheek, why wasn't he strong enough? Why would he call himself a prodigy if he wasn't able to stop a bijuu? He wondered if his mother was alright, he had hoped that she was able to reach safety along with the others he had passed by while heading to the front-lines, even the children he began to save leaving the rest of the work to the medical nin. He wiped his eyes, and sucked back all his feelings. He still had a job as a Shinobi to ensure that the others were safe. A rose to his feet, and ran into a nearby shoulder first, replacing his dislocated arm into it socket. Stretching his arm around ensuring it wasn't fractured, he leaped down over heaps of debris heading toward the brave genin. She was exhausted he could see, almost as if she'd pass out. She pushed herself to her own limits, not allowing anything to happen. She must have had reasons similar to Dominick's. He hadn't seen elixar, though he was a rank higher, even though the shared the same age he was still worried. He had reached Kai, knelling beside her, ready to catch her body if she was to give out. His eyes multi-tasked looking for any visible signs of others watching the village. Kumo was at a huge disadvantage, half the village was destroyed, given they didn't have any problems with other villages, he still had his mind set. His thoughts bounced around, constantly losing train of thought. He didn't use a lot of chakra, so he had enough to defend Kai if anything else was to happen or to lift debris in case elixar had been buried alive.

He could barely hear what was being said whilst the impending bijuudama reached completion. He did make out the words Konoha, and what sounded like the names of two other bijuu, and sealed. 'A worldwide crisis?' Elixar couldn't help but wonder how many shinobi it had taken for the leaf ninjas to subdue both of their beasts. As he thought of this, the shadow clad figure disappeared with the bijuu and their charged balls of destruction. Gone, without a trace. It was like the eye of the storm had just passed over Kumogakure. Elixar stared up into the empty space that once contained two hulking beasts that had reduced their poor village to rubble and dust. His face felt hot and sticky from the heat of destruction, and the dust that clung to his face. He ground his teeth, trembling with anger. He was too slow to act, too weak to protect his village. He needed to be stronger, evolve and grow to the point that his village could depend on him. His eyes blazed gold, his anguish radiating out like a warm glow amongst the darkness in his heart. He went to rendvous with the other two shinobi who had accompanied him in the onesided destruction of the village. 'The Prodigy' and a young Hyuga who'd been strong-headed enough to charge down a giant monkey made of chakra head on, albeit unsuccessfully. His voice was hoarse.

"Hideaki, Miss Hyuga..." His face was dark with distress "We should start evaluating casualties and see what the elders think." He was unsure of what to say to them. He'd been just as useless as the others, his lightning only doing so much as push the yonbi back before his master whisked him away. He had not been the knight in shining armour that one would expect of a Jounin, he was just a kid like them, unsure of what to do.
