'Battle Dice' : 20

Vidav's jutsu had hit the mark-- at least briefly. At first, the tiger seemed confident as he could sense and see who was there. The target was inside the illusionary jungle and wouldn't know how to get out... that was till Hayabusa's eyes turned into the powerful kaleidoscope symbol.

Vidav gasped as he felt the same energy of his Genjutsu struck him-- the effects of his roar rebound and echoed in his mind.

"Lord Vidav?" Asura asked, seeing the stunned look on the tiger's face. "Vidav?!" Asura then shook the tiger's shoulders, seeing him unresponsive.

From Vidav's point of view, he was now in the illusion forest, and unable to figure out how he got there. It took him a few minutes as he soon remembered the sensation and calmly made a hand sign. "Release!" he growled.

Vidav's senses returned and he shook his head. He panted, realizing he had fallen for his own Genjutsu. "I hate to admit it... but you're right," the tiger panted and regained his composure. He placed a hand on Asura's hand and moved it slowly off his shoulder, insuring him he was okay. "He did something that reversed my Genjutsu right back me. If I was not able to undo my own Genjutsu, I would of been in big trouble."

Asura sighed. "Well, I hate to say I told you so..." Asura stopped and rolled his eyes, "Actually, no I don't hate saying it."

The tiger growled, more wounded with his pride than the resulting headache of the genjutsu. "Either way, this stranger is indeed strong to repel and reflect a genjutsu-- even one that travels by sound. You truly wish to challenge him?" the tiger asked.

Asura looked into the distance where Hayabusa was, and soon he blinked his eyes-- his Tengan now appearing in his eyes. "I got to... I can't accept that their powers are unbeatable. Every jutsu has a weakness, and I will find it." he growled and gripped the claw weapon in his hand. "Hey may be an ally, but he is also a rival I will beat."

************

At that point, Hayabusa and Houkou had no further problems as they were able to continue down the road free of the Genjutsu. No mysterious twists or trees that looked the same. They were likely half way through the jungle itself.

But that still didn't mean they were out of the woods just yet.

A gaze as fierce as a tiger was upon Hayabusa now, well hidden inside the cover of the jungle's canopy. For anyone that truly lived in this wooded area, the terrain was on their side, while Hayabusa was unfamiliar with the terran.

From up above, Asura dwelled and soon saw as Hayabusa came into view. Clad in both the canopy , he slowly extended his hand. From in between his fingers, bits of crystal seemed to produce out of the very chakra of his hands. They turned solid and grew like growing crystal-- becoming green discs and soon took shape-- producing oddly sharp shuriken made of the stuff. Finished, he held the shuriken ready in his hands, and waited.

Hayabusa would soon come into view. From what Asura knew, the SHarigan could do much-- but not see through objects, while Asura now had a clear view of his target. Both with x-ray and inferred vision, he knew where his target was, allowing him to strike even without clear line of sight through the trees.

"Surprise, Jackass...." Asura smirked and made his move.

With the Shuriken in hand and angled in the right way, he jumped upward upon his branch and let them fly! A mass of ten shuriken came hurtling towards Hayabusa through the trees.

The faint rustle of trees could be heard. Was it birds or an animal to Hayabusa's ears? -- Nope, but a barrage of Shuirken thrown at him with a skilled hand, poised to strike from above!

The moment he threw it, he moved--- keeping his location a secret for the moment. Now Asura understood why the other tigers loved ambushing people in the jungle. It was the thrill of the hunt that made them do it and test their own skills.

Hayabusa heard the rustle of leaves, before he realized the chakra embedded crystal shuriken heading towards him. The shuriken had come raining towards him, as he only had a few moments to recognize the type of attack it was, and lifted his hand to begin his repel and return of the shuriken. It was then he realized that he and the wolf had to be unified in order to control the elements, and he had not yet been used to such a concept.
He sucked his teeth, as the shuriken went cutting at his skin. His endurance didn’t let him faulter, as all of them but one only scratched him. One pierced his shoulder. He looked at it from the corner of his eye, as he pulled it out and threw it to the side. He looked at Houkou.
“Nice save…” Hayabusa said sarcastically.
“Don’t be such a crybaby…” Houkou replied. “Should we merge?” he asked. Hayabusa clapped his hands together.
“Hakken!” he yelled, as he created a barrier that detected the movements of the attacker. “That won’t be necessary… yet…” he said, as he outstretched his hands and he arms slightly turned scaled. From his opened palms, a glow of wind began to form in a razor like chakra. These were weapons connected to his very being, known as the legendary blades of Suna. Using both his intelligence, his Sharingan’s ability to calculate trajectories, and his own timing, Hayabusa raised his arm high above his head, as he threw his arms forward as if to slash over head. He arms outstretched like that of a limbless snake’s body, reaching the distance and hitting at the intersection point of the moving target within his barrier…

The shuriken attack indeed hit-- but didn't even do enough damage considering Hayabusa's tough exterior and armor. At most was he was able to draw blood. But it was fine for Asura. He preferred to take his time in this game. However, what was odd was the jutsu Hayabusa did-- and soon he knew. A type of barrier. He wasn't sure if it would stop his next attack, or what-- but he knew something was coming.

Now Hayabusa drew a powerful sword of some kind and wielded wind into it-- causing a vicious slash of air right for Asura.

"Crap..." Asura grumbled.

The blade came and lopped off sections of the trees-- but missed. In a blink of an eye, Asura became a blur of motion and vanished.

He landed on another branch on the oppsite end of Hayabusa. The quick movement of his Taijutsu was coming in handy as he used it to escape the powerful strike. But still, he doubted now that he moved-- he was no longer hidden. Asura knew it was time to crank things up a notch. "Alright, you bastard... lets try this," He said and focused, triggering one of his basic skills. "The first gate... Manipura... Release..." he said low, but the power that flowed exploded inside him. The surge in his body felt good and energized him with more power. Even though he only opened the first of the seven gates, it was enough for now. He flicked his wrist once more, drawing out the last of his shuriken.

"Lets see how you handle this..." He growled and jumped up once more. This time he threw the shuriken in a similar fashon as before-- attempting to strike from behind Hayabusa.

However, the moment he landed, Asura quickly wove hand signs together.

Dragon, Rat, Snake, Tiger! "Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!" he growled, casting the jutsu on the shuriken in his eye sight.

As Hayabusa would observe a relative small amount of Shuriken come his way-- suddenly they would flicker in movement. In the blink of an eye, a whole SWARM of them were now there, spinning with the same deadly precision and power he threw the first. The Shuriken Barrage combined with the Shadow Clone Shuriken technique would no doubt surprise Hayabusa, giving him an overwhelming force for him to contend with.

"Try brushing that off..." Asura said with a grin.

From afar, Vidav watched as Asura traded blows with Hayabusa, interested to see the training of his young apprentice and the strength of his ally.
