Catch a Tiger by the toe... (Summoning Jutsu Quest) (Invite for Satoshi and Grave. No PVP )

Post 13

Asura struggled to think as he held the little tiger cub in his arms while the parent went on a rampage in Iwa. No doubt the other ninja were trying to control and stop the creature but were not doing a good job. "Heh!" a voice spoke beside him. Turning around, Asura saw sight of Ravana next to him, his arm against the spire and looking at the damage. "Sucks to be you right now, kid. Seems 'daddy' wants his cub back," he said with a snicker.

"You-- you think this is funny?!" Asura shouted, furious that his Master was being a tease about all this while a giant cat was tearing up the town. "That THING is huge and your acting like its not a big deal. That thing will eat me whole if it finds out what I have done. Can't you do anything?"

"Mreooow!" the cat meowed in all the excitement.

At that moment, however, the large tiger's ears perked up. It had heard the small meow of its offspring. When it came to tigers, their sense of hearing was the strongest. Almost stopping its rampage entirely, it grew silent and turned its head in the direction of the spire. Its eyes looked and zoomed in on the direction-- till it saw Asura.

The sudden silence caught Asura's attention as he too turned, and saw the giant tiger staring at his very location. A sliver of fear and sweat crept down his face. "Oh crap..." he squeaked, realizing he was spotted and very likely knew he had the kitten. "He see's me!"

"Well, good luck with that, kiddo. See ya later," Ravana said , and when Asura turned to yell at him-- he was gone in a flash as if he was never there.

"What?! Where did he--?"

"YOU!!!" the booming voice of the tiger roared, indicating Asura even from afar. "STAY RIGHT THERE YOU MISERABLE LITTLE INSECT! YOU WILL PAY FOR KIDNAPPING MY SON!!"

This was bad! It began rushing for the majority of the village, and it would risk plowing and crushing right through the buildings and the people nearby to reach it. Right now , while he wanted to gladly give the kitten back to its dad-- he had to move this fight somewhere where no one would get hurt in the aftermath!

"Time to go!" Asura said as he took a firm grip of the little kitten and sprinted away! Asura easily flashed in a blur of speed across the village and easily reached the end in a matter of seconds. He quickly headed for the nearby forest of stones-- attempting to lure the giant tiger after him.

And just as he hoped, or rather dreaded, the tiger quickly spotted him and followed, now entering a clear run after the young ninja. The tiger released a wicked roar of rage, his fury clearly provoked by the chase.

“You should help him” Wukong said as he sat on the branch next to Heise. Both seemed very casual in the situation as they shared bananas and other freshly picked fruits. Heise took a bite of his own meal and before responding back to the monkey.
“Now Wukong, If I do that, Hanuman will yell at me, and Asura gains nothing.” Heise said trying to sound reasonable. Wukong paused for a moment and shrugged. He leaped to the ground and ran at Asura. Heise sighed as he watched Wukong.
“I’m going to regret this” Heise said as he to made his way towards asura.

When both arrived, Heise and Wukong were running along side the slow Asura. Heise pointed to the kitten and yelled over the destruction of the giant Cat.
“GIVE HIM BACK!” Heise yelled pointing to the cat. He then jumped forward while turned around to face the giant Beast. He slammed his hands into the ground and cause a large wall of earth to arise. Heise would then continue moving forward to catch up with Wukong and Asura.
“ASURA-SENPAI!” Wukong was now yelling. “He won’t stop. Heise is only human.” Wukong said.
“Thanks Wukong for having faith in me” Heise said sarcastically. “At Least I’m trying” A large roar bellowed from the beast as he crashed through the slab of earth. Heise closed his eyes as he ran and suddenly large branches began to emerge from behind him and restrain the beast. Also three branches picked The runaways up and carried them away faster as Heise awaited Asura’s resolution.

Asura had quickly ran out of the settlement and made his way for the forest of stones-- a mixture of trees and rocks. Hopefully it had plenty of vantage and hiding places where he could evade his persuer... the massive and very pissed off tiger following behind him. And despite the creature's size, he was fast! He was quickly gaining on Asura, despite how nimble and quick he was. All the while, he held the little tiger cub in his arm.

"THis sucks..." Asura grumbled as he ran, hearing the smashing of rock and structures behind him. He dared not turn around to look, knowing the large tiger was hot on his trail.

Picking up his speed and pace, Asura quickly rushed towards a place he knew, an open clearing from all the rocks and such. It seemed like enough space to try and talk sense into the big cat. Turning around, he was about to try and dodge an attack to come-- but the large tiger was gone.

ANd then he saw them-- both Heise and Wukong suddenly entering the fray. "WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU TWO BEEN!?" Asura yelled at them, wondeirng where they had vanished after all this time only to come in now. "Of course I am trying to give the cat back-- away from the village!!"

The wall of earth was summoned by Heise as he attempted to stop the tiger. However-- the tiger was far more capable than Heise would of guessed. "FOOLS!!" He roared, and suddenly as if from his very voice, lightning struck! A bolt of lighting fell from the sky and struck the large tiger, suddenly coating his massive body in an aura of electricity. It could use Raiton-- making Doton absolutely worthless. He plowed through the wall of stone with ease, where he was about to run into the wood elemental bindings.

This time it grasped him, but with his massive claws also charged with lightning, the massive tiger claws the bindings off his body in a matter of seconds. In the flash of the same lightning-- the tiger had become a blur and vanish.


"HUh...." Asura said, a bit dumbfounded. "Where did it go--??"

His answer soon came as suddenly the massive tiger leapt up and over the mass of rocks that had divided him from the clearing! He landed with a loud crashing sound upon the ground, the creature's great weight and strength smashing the stone around him. He skidded against the ground, much as a cat come to a sudden pounce as he landed. He skidded a small distance, Asura watching as he was now very, very close to him. The large tiger dwarfed him, making him feel like an ant before Asura and Wukong.

He was massive, making Asura shake a bit. "You little rats!" the tiger growled, "I shall make you suffer for stealing my child!!"

Before the beast could say more, he spoke up. "Wait-wait! Please!" Asura shouted, holding the little cat close to his chest. "Please listen, this has just been a really, really, REALLY big misunderstanding here!" he said.

The large tiger listened. He didn't move but he still cast a dangerous growl towards themn as Asura talked. "I accedentally summoned your cub with the summoning jutsu and I couldn't send him back cause I didn't have a contract. I'm sorry. But here, I am happy to give him back to you."

The cat still glared at them with a deadly look behind the strange mask he wore.

When the beast had used the lightning technique, making Heise’s jutsu useless, Heise had pretty much realized this beast was on a whole another scale. He wondered if Son Goku was as strong as the giant tiger in front of him.
“Wait wait please!” Asura said. To Heise’s surprise the beast actually did stop and was listening to the Human speak. Wukong looked at Heise and shook his head. Heise already understood what Wukong was thinking.
“All this for some stupid cat” Wukong muttered. Heise shot Wukong a dirty look realizing that if the Tiger heard it, then they would enrage him even more. That was something Heise wasn’t ready for.
“You damn Tigers and your attitudes!” Wukong said as he pointed his finger at the tiger and moved closer.
“Oh no…” Heise said realizing that Wukong was picking the wrong battle to fight.
“You can never just be happy! You always have to yell and Fuck shit up! And you’re always fucking angry. i’ve never seen a group of cats more angry. Even the Lions are never that angry and they are the kings of the Animal kingdom. You guys are just some… Close seconds” Wukong said turning around. There was a long silence amongst the four members standing there until the baby kitten let out a soft meow as if in confusion.
“I think.. We should run… Now.” Heise said slowly backing away.

Asura couldn't believe the STUPID shit that Wukong was saying of all time now. Was he TRYING To get him killed by having the monkey talk shit to the much larger, much angrier tiger. The very likely outcome would be that the giant tiger would eat Wukong, and munch on Asura and Heise for dessert!

Irritated and wanting to silence Wukong, Asura jumped on him and quickly covered the monkey's mouth with his hand, slapping his mouth shut! He did his best to muffle what words he would continuously spouting. "Ah...hahaha... please ignore this monkey, who I have no affiliation to by the way--" he said, partly lying. He liked Wukong, but just not right now as he was pretty much adding fuel to his funeral pyre.

With a push, he put Wukong out of the way, already feeling pressured as the tiger let out a growl of irritation. "Give... me... back... my... son, you worthless apes..." the large tiger replied, making Asura wonder who he was addressing--- Wukong or Heise and himself.

"Look, seriously! I never intended to take your son away. Here," he said as he lowered the little cat on the ground and gave him a little scoot towards the larger tiger. "Okay, little guy. Time to say goodbye and go home. Go on. Daddy's waiting," he said, giving the cat a little nudge in the backside to get him going.

The little cat walked a couple of steps and looked behind him at Asura. The little kitten was almost confused. Being so young, it was no different than a baby and while it might recognize its father, it was conflicted to what was going on or what to do. And now-- when Asura hoped it would stagger over to the larger tiger, the cat turned around and happily pounced back to Asura's feet.

Asura had a look of confusion and dread on his face as the cat immediately came to his feet and immediately nudged his leg, the sign of affections and drawn that cats did. It didn't seem willing to leave Asura just yet. "No. No bad kitty. Go back to your daddy!" Asura said, but the cat still nuzzled Asura lovingly.

The dangerous sound of the tiger's growl ended the sweet kitten moment. "You deceptive cur!!" he snarled, a dangerous step made that crushed the ground below him. "You TURNED MY OWN CHILD AGAINST ME, HAVEN'T YOU!!" he accused.

Asura looked from the large cat to the little one, then back. "WH-What?! No! No-no-no-no-no!" Asura said, waving his arms defensively to try and calm the tiger down. "That is NOT the case!"

"YOU DECEPTIVE WORMS!!" he roared and raised a paw up, claws extending clearly to reveal them to be razor sharp. "YOUR LIVES ARE FORFEIT!!" he roared and brought it down upon Asura.

Alarmed, Asura quickly scooped up the little cat and focused his chakra, just as the paw came down with a crash, smashing the ground where he had been!

Heise and Wukong might or might not know what happen-- but a good distance away, Asura was alive and well. He looked to where the large tiger was, hiding behind one of the large rocks. The little cat was in his arms, still cozy where he was. Asura sighed in relief, knowing it was a close call. "That was a close one. Good thing I learned the Body Flicker technique,"

However, this little shift of position meant nothing as the cat soon looked to see no remains remaining under his paw after his rageful attack. Glaring at Heise and Wukong, he too swiped a large paw at them, but in a more lashing attack-- before taking off once again in the direction Asura had flashed to!

“Your Lives are forfeit” The giant beast bellowed. Heise turned his head to Wukong who now realized that maybe he’d talk just a bit to much. Heise shook his head and muttered underneath his breath.
“Now You’ve done it.”

Just as the giant hand was coming down Heise had begun to form hand seals. Wukong turned his head to face a readied Heise who as turning into crows and disappearing from the scene. Wukong himself split into doves and reformed next to Heise who’d reform a few meters ahead of the giant Beast.
“I think we can take him.” Wukong said as he got into a fighting stance. Heise looked a Wukong with a bit of shock at his stupidity.
“Are you serious right now? He has the lightning release. Who knows that the hell else he could be using.” He said.
“I mean you could try out that technique!” Wukong said as he watched the beast move closer and closer. Heise nodded as he closed his eyes and extended his right hand. In front of him a large spiraling red sphere began to form.
“HOLY SHIT! WUKONG I ADDED THE LAVA ELEMENT TO IT I-“ Just as his excitement came the rotating lava ball simmered in a flame from his hand and obsidian crumbled in his hands.
“How do you lose control.” Wukong Muttered.

Heise and Wukong then noticed the second attack coming at them.
“Aww shi-“ They both said in unison before the swipe came at them. Just as before, doves and crows both emerged from around the paw and reformed somewhere else.
“Yo Kyuubi You wanna help on this one?” Heise yelled aloud but no response came. Heise shrugged. Wukong looked at Heise with a blank look.
“Well is the Fox coming to beat the tiger?” The Monkey asked. Heise shook his head.
“He’s sleeping.” Heise said. Heise then noticed Asura was yet again in danger. He took off and again began to grow branches from the ground to restrain the giant tiger. Wukong began to charge up his chakra in order to fire a large lava rock at the Tiger.
“Lava Release: Molten Rock” Wukong Yelled.

Meanwhile, Asura and the cat was hidden but not for long. The sharp ears and eyes of the tiger easily could see where his targets were. The tiger was so consumed by fury and rage for the moment it didn't even consider the fact its own cub could be hurt in the fight.

It let out a roar once more, the wind howling in responce. Asura had seen that it had Raiton as a weapon but he was focusing more on the fact he needed to survive the attacks. At that time, he sprinted into a run, heading for the further crevice of mountains.

"You wont escape!!" it roared and seemed to inhale, before suddenly a large motlen boulder smashed into the tiger's back. Irritated, it looked to see Heise had summoned the molten boulder. It hurt no doubt, but still what part of lightning did act like an armor, plus the mass of muscle the tiger had. "Don't interfere!!" it roared and wqith that inhale, it unleashed its next attack.

A spiraling gust of wind that tore through the surroundings like a horizontal tornado. A Fuuton technique, and a powerful one as it tore through the rocks that were in its path and poised to strike Heise.

In that same moment, the attack was no more than a means of losing Heise and focusing back on Asura as he fled. The cat was swift as it quickly began to run after the young ninja, not resting till he was torn to shreds.

Asura could hear and feel the impacts of the giant cat as he chased him. "Damnit..." he snarled and began to build up chakra. Thanks to his abilities he had learned from so much training, he was now capable of using his most used jutsu without hardly using hand signs. It helped now since his arm was full holding "Tony the Tiger Junior". As for now, he knew one jutsu to at least buy him some time.

"Pyro Clone Jutsu!!" Asura said. As he ran, a sudden gush of fire erupted around him, and from those flames, they took shape and became copies of him. Roughly there were about 16 clones of him, all of them suddenly running through different points of the stone forest.

"YOUR TRICKERY WON'T SAVE YOU!!" the tiger roared as he saw one nearby and literally pounced for it, attempting to crush him--

for it then suddenly exploded on impact, causing fire damage against the tiger's paws.

Asura's Pyro Clones was in fact an original jutsu he created. Since he first became a shinobi, he had the talent of using Explosion Clones. However, that jutsu was extremely limited in function and utility as they exploded upon contact. However, Asura had developed his own jutsu through the Jiin's art of Katon manipulation. Now his "Pyro Clones" were just as durable and versatile as shadow clones, but should one be destroyed, it had the exact same power as Explosion Clones, dealing explosive damage to one foolish enough to attack the wrong target.

The tiger watched the clones, clearly visible by the bright color of red of his clothing and hair. Easy targets but hard to tell which was the real one. All the while, the real one made his way further towards the mountains.

The tiger lashed at them, as any cat would to bugs or rodents it would see around it. As the multiple Asura's ran and leapt across the rocky terrain, the giant tiger attacked each one. However, as it did this, each one he attacked released a blast like a pop from a paper bomb. Each clone exploded, leaving series of fires and burns along the area. However, while such tactics would work against regular Shinobi, the tiger merely brushed the blasts off like if he was putting out matches. It was hot, but not hardly damage worthy. The cat was massively strong.

After he had snuffed out the last of the clones, as far as he could tell, he examined the nearby landscape. Besides, Heise and his monkey companion who was the least of the tiger's concerns at the moment, he searched for Asura and his son. After a bit of scouting, he spotted them. A red figure with something in his arms heading for the nearby mountains.

"THERE YOU ARE, BRAT!!" he roared and began to sprint for them again.

Hearing his roar, the real Asura looked behind him to see the tiger running for him. He picked up the pace now as he entered the narrow hills of the mountains, now a clear sense of worry crossing his features. "HURRY, FEEET!!!" Asura shouted in fright as he ran while holding onto the cat in his arms. He was clearly scared to be caught by the tiger. All the while the little cat in his arms didn't even put up a fuss. It was almost as if you looked close enough, it was smiling. It was enjoying itself.

Asura began to hop along the edges and ledges of the mountain pass, entering the narrow valley between them. He had hoped he could out maneuver the larger tiger, by entering a space he hoped the large cat couldn't follow.

The large tiger stopped short of the entrance. It was a tight fit for him, but he simply did something else. He inhaled in his breath, a growl echoing through the valley.

Post 18.

"Meow?" The cat said, hearing the growl. So did Asura as he turned and saw the tiger seemed to take a long breath. Asura's expression grew with alarm.

"Don't tell me..." he groaned and stopped quickly.

"FUUTON!!" the large tiger bellowed, his large maw visible from where Asura was. "HOWLING CYCLONE!!" With the loud roar, a sudden rush of air was felt-- follow by the sudden appearance of a swirling cyclone that came rushing right at him. It blew apart brush, stone and even blasted parts of the canyon walls apart. It rushed for him with violent force, that would tear Asura and the cat apart.

Asura looked at the incoming attack, baffled. Was this tiger insane?! He would kill his own cub with this as well. "YOu gotta be kidding me!!" he shouted as he quickly ran further. But still, it would catch him. The speed of the attack was gaining as it carried through the canyon, no more than 50 meters away from Asura and closing. Gaining some distance and still running, Asura jumped and flipped around. Fire chakra had built up in him as he now prepared for his own attack.

"Katon! " he said, holding up just a single hand to form a ninja sign to focus. "Giant Fireball Jutsu!!" he roared and soon blew out of his mouth, causing a trail of fire to shoot forward!

Asura was not stupid as he had countered. He knew his elements well-- and knew that Fire was superior to Wind. As a result, Asura's fireball made contact with the cyclone, and the flames immediately flared up in size and power. Asura's Jutsu literally ate up the tiger's Wind Jutsu, and the fireball kept going, striking right back into the tiger's face.

KABOOM! The fireball went off right into the tiger's body, dealing a bit more damage than before. Not only was the Giant Fireball boosted by the Tiger's misplaced Fuuton jutsu, but it was also boosted by Asura's Kekkei Genkai over fire.

"GRAAAAHHH!!!" the Tiger roared in more surprise than pain. The fireball didn't damage him badly, not even burn him-- but the fact was it was PUSHED further in power and caught the tiger off guard, getting a good blast in the face and forcing the tiger to fall backwards.

Realizing his plan worked, Asura quickly kept running, making his way further into the mountains.

Heise had noted to himself that Asura’s mastery over the fire release had grown strong though it still wasn’t as strong as his own, at least yet. Heise did however realize that his newly founded friend would end up surpassing him though in the fire release easily.
“What’s the next plan?” Wukong asked as he stood still. Heise smiled and shrugged as he turned around.
“Let Asura handle this. We will see him another time. For now. We have to leave."

Post 19.

Asura ran while the large tiger was distracted by the giant fireball that hit him. All the while, Asura swore at Heise. WHere the hell did that goofy shinobi and his monkey friend go!? Of all the time for them to suddenly run  off and ditch and after all their talk. Asura growled at the thought of them as he sprinted across the walls of the canyon. "Next time I see those clowns, I'm setting their asses on fire, tha jerks!!" he shouted, still carrying the cat.

At that time, the tiger had shook off the last of the flames, smoke billowing off his fur. He was going to need a good long cold bath after this to bring back the regal shine to his white fur. "WHY YOU--!!" he let out a roar and this time sprinted forward. The large tiger now ran along the outside of the canyon, going from above to pursue his prey.

Asura kept moving but was quickly running out of placed to go. The tiger would no doubt catch him, no matter how high or low he would go-- till he spotted something he recognized. THe caves near the bottom of the mountain in front of him.

It was his best chance as he ran for it, hoping it would give him some cover. The tiger however spotted him and quickly pursued. "Fight me you coward!!" he bellowed.
