The forest is an unusual formation of trees composed out of solid stone instead of wood, at it appears as munch. The forest is generally used for outside training for all shinobi alike and serves as a good competing area during the chunin exams. Munch speculation surrounds the origin of the forest. Some say that from the constant built up of magma that rushes through the area every so often coats over the stone trees and cools off only to continue the cycle again to extend the thickness of trees. However in order for this to be true, the wood beneath the stone would have burned the moment the magma touched it. Therefore, no one truly knows what material underneath the stone is made up of.

 Just so you know. The first post is balls. So balls to you all. Take my current and general dislike of going first. Seriously. gawd. Just had to be this mess. Jebus. Oh so you want an intro? a Grand beginning? A festive treat for the eyes, brain, taste, and other lesser senses? Well guess what? You're going to get one and I don't care how much you hate comedy in your serious business.
Oh you just could SMELL tension in the air, because it was a heavy smell, the kinda smell one could only hope to achieve after a week of bean chili. The tension was just THAT Potent. I mean, not a damned bloody beast in the whole forest itself wanted anything to do with it. Like the calm before some kinda fierce ninja storm, the creatures of the forest hid away, flew away, and just got the hell out of the way of what was coming. So with some flare, some pazzazz, and even a bit of just swagger. Out comes one Ryouma, well his head anyway. The rest of his body, covered from the neck down is wrapped up in a slew of cloaks, no less than four different cloaks could be counted wrapping about his body, adding a considerable bulk to his relatively slim frame. Now, one could wonder, why just walk out? He is a ninja right? Well s**t like that takes energy, and it's a damned forest, his home turf, hell with wasting that kinda stuff, a stroll is more than good enough. So there he is folks, all out and in the open. ABSOLUTELY nothing at all could go wrong with that, nope. NOTHING.

 The forest shown little light as Rengoru slumped holding his longest kitana in the midst that had rolled over from the early morning. The cool breeze calmed his spirits, as the bright sun that which barely shown through the canopy light his cold body. The night before he trained no different from the months and years before this fate filled morning. The birds that awoke chirped and so did the younger ones as well. This sense was not just mere rambling this was "Agni" The flame village. The breeze suddenly shifted as some of the birds squawked and flew others grew quiet. The eyes of Rengoru opened just a lil as an unknown force walked right under Rengoru's branch which he was resting on. With swiftness Rengoru grabbed his kitana and large scroll placed along his lower back almost able to cover the smaller kitana. A large flurry of leaves began to swirl about 10 feet from Ryouma there a cloud of smoke and there stood Rengoru. With a blank expression on his face he paused to recognize the man as he could not. Slowly Rengoru raised his sheathed kitana and spoke, " who are you and what village are you from?" The direct approach seemed more fitting since his meditation was interrupted as results of Ryouma's presence into the petrified forest. " I WILL ASK AGAIN, no unjust movement or…." a slight smirk slowly moved to show his intent nonviolent but,"I will cut you down…" was for Rengoru's absolute pleasure. ((first post isn't balls that just means you beat everybody to the punch lol))

 "Yo Bunshin no Jutsu" A voice spoke out. Once the smoke dispersed from Rengoru's earlier endeavor, a lone figure would stand exactly six feet above on the higher branches. At that moment, Rengoru would feel a firm grip wrap around his right shoulder. "Since when did he great ANBU of Agnigakure forget the names of their own kin." The voice that spoke from behind dragged out coolly, however it held a dangerous tone behind it as well. There it stood, the form of the Agnikage of the Flame Village....Kazumei Ashitaka. His eyes slanted in the direction of the two shinobi with displeasure, burning with a fiery amber tone. He had only been present for a few seconds and he was already displeased with what he saw in both shinobi. It was true. Rengoru was one of the finest ANBU ever to be produced by the Flame Village, and it was disgraceful for someone of his caliber to forget the names a fellow shinobi such as Ryouma. It was every ANBU's duty to identify each and every single individual in their Bingo books as well as every single ninja in their villages. Ryouma's current standing was no different. In fact, on a scale it was much worst than Rengoru. Ryouma on the other hand was a type of creature who's attempts at comical relief was so disheartening, that it reflected in the actual skills of the shinobi.
Although each person were entitled to their own personalities, there was a boundary set and marked as far as expectations went for each resident of the Flame Village. This boundary was known as the law of power.
If any traits or characteristics of a shinobi intervened with their progression in skill and power, they were not fit to be a Flame Shiobi or a civilian of the Flame Village for the matter, and therefore they would be dealt with unless they showed change and promise in the areas expected of them. Suddenly Rengoru's shoulder would feel Kazumei's grip tightening with hostility, followed by a single weaved handsign from his free hand. "Katon: Kasai Sanshuhouuo no Jutsu" In that instant Kazumei would inhale and breath forth a blotch of flames between Rengoru and Ryouma. Soon the fiery apparition would mold and take the shape of a salamander consisting of flames. Once his eyes narrowed on Ryouma's form, the salamander would scamper forth, leaving behind a small trail of of flames as it zipped forth in a side to side maneuver before snapping it's fiery jaws towards Ryouma's neck as it entered melee range. "You disappoint me Rengoru. Your fate will be the same as Ryouma's, unless you can alter destiny here and now on this very battle field." His eyes burned a bright amber before lowering on Rengoru's form.

 Rengoru grew with no surprise that someone would interfere with the meeting of Ryouma and Rengoru. So when the voice spoke the familiarity of it already registered in the ears and mind of Rengoru "Kazumei,,," said Rengoru in a long dry tone. The grip on his shoulder would be one of no pain but on of ill intent just from that tone in Kazumei's voice, and the ill mannered grip he understood the tone of the situation.The lecture of the ANBU was something that Rengoru knew already as he clinched his kitana from the shear mockery that Rengoru had to endure from Kazumei. Rengoru watched as the salamander that Kazumei had summoned had then gripped Ryouma leaving a blazing trail of fire. The works of the situation escalated very quickly as Rengoru figured that he was the next target. THe eyes of Kazumei shown brighter than the flames which was dragging from the heavy salamander. The words that Kazumei had spoke rang through his head, as though Kazumei would just see Rengoru bow to the sight of a challenge. Rengoru eyes then glowed from the bright flames and his lips spoke with a blank expression, "My destiny has always been on the battlefield and to know me is to understand that someone of my caliber would not disappoint any challenge better than to face you". Than be a fool and look like Ryouma being held up by a salamander. Rengoru pulled away and ran toward the salamander dodging the flames and manipulated his fingers to complete the hand signs for " Ice dome jutsu" to follow up after the taijutsu move "rising sun" to help Ryouma evade from coming doom of the salamander's jaws giving Ryouma the time to flee. But to also trapping the Salamander in a icy coffin from the ice dome jutsu which would render the salamander's flames useless. Either way Rengoru wanted no casualties which was about to take place.

Well now, isn't this just a barrel of fun. You know, he was just fine, I mean really FINE. He understandably didn't need this kind of s**t on the first day of his return home. Lets roll this back with one problem at a time shall well? Here he is, just wandering back home through the forest, not even BOTHERING to hide who he is, and an ANBU of all things come down from his high and mighty perch to question HIM about his BUSINESS here? Seirously? REALLY?! He gets a message, which he has on him, to return home from his three year mission. He was quiet content you know. Exploring Strange new lands, seeking out new jutsu and civilization. Going boldly where no Ninja has gone before. So you could think that maybe, just maybe that someone in the security force could pass a damned message and let people know who he is, even IF memory fails. Honestly, first order of business when he gets home is to cull a few heads and shove a muddy boot up someones a**. Sticking to his guns, he raises both his hands up into the air, sticking his pinky into each ear he promptly gives the ANBU the middle finger with each hand. Oh yes, classic Ryouma fashion, a*****e Mcgee wants a fight, he is going to get one in short order, with extra bullshit involved. That was the plan, oh hell yes that was the plan, then one certain beady eyed, sharp nosed, in need of a damned personality restructuring showed up.
Oh looks kids! It's the very same guy that said. "Go keep everyone out there on their toes!" Last they met three years ago. Surely he will have a brain. Surely he will make sens- No. Figures. Naturally his day will just have to go from a nuisance to just an outright Crapshoot. This made most obvious when that same no good, beady eyed, POS, Pain in my a**, Kage summons a salamander made of flames. Oh. God. DAMNIT. Not even a word out his mouth and already people want his head on a pike. Hell with all of them then. They want a storm, they want the thunder, they want a piece of this Ninja with a serious problem with authority, then damnit they got it.
Twisting each of his fingers in his ears, he gives they EVER so loyal and notmaking Sense Kage the shot of his fingers before simply dancing back on the tips of his toes. While it was EVER so nice for Mr. ANBU to go out of his way to help. it seriously wasn't needed, if anything it was a hindrance. High and Virtuous types always have a way of getting under his skin, to much time with their head in the clouds and not enough on the ground, in the mud, and s**t. Keeping a distances of at least twenty yards between himself and the other two, he lets his hands fall back beneath his cloak, his own brown eyes peering forward as his body slips down into a mid way crouch. " When this is over. I am going to pull that head out of your a** and shove it up into the idiot next to you. People like that should be culled on the first day. Or at the least given the suicide missions. I mean, there is quality, they is sub par, then well. You have that." Sucking in a deep breath, he starts slowly putting trees between himself and the other two, keeping him always just barely with in sight as his hands start to make various signs beneath the cloak. Clearly he had something cooking, but as for what, who is to say. Clearly he is going to choose to play the wait and see route when it comes to this kind of battle.

Indeed the battle did take somewhat of an amusing turn, however this was something to be expected given the combatants involved, especially someone of Ryouma's current stature. The boy had a good ways to learn. Indeed it had been some time since he was told to depart the village and journey through the horizon in order to further himself in greater wisdom and enlightenment. This was a custom in the Flame Village that shinobi of many variations were able to undergo after reaching a certain point in their life of a ninja. The sole purpose of this procedure could be summarized into one method told for many generations by Agnigakure's elders. Agnigakure is the mother of all Flame Shinobi. It tosses it's young prematurely into the mouth of the volcano and only raises the ones that return as dragons. This was one of their greatest traditions in raising it's shinobi. It was a double edged method. Not only did the flame ninja gain greater knowledge in this process, but Agnigakure's influence as well as it's reputation would spread starting with every land that specific flame ninja stepped foot in. However, Ryouma did not return a dragon, and as his mother, Agnigakure would not accept him, but instead reject him as if he were mere trash caught up in the filters of a sewer system. One notable as well as interesting event was Ryouma's attempt at establishing the situation to his own convenience in order to take away from the embarrassment of his own situation. In all actuality, it was quite a pity to see someone say things that he claimed he would do such as his symbolization of the oncoming thunder and storms he mentioned as a representation of his so called actions to come, despite him hiding among the forest trees in order to to distance himself from Kazumei as well as Rengoru right after making that such bold statements and assumptions of Rengoru; the very same ANBU who he deemed over-virtuous as well as unworthy of assisting him in a battle.
Kazumei solemnly closed his eyes before letting off a somewhat annoyed sigh. It was pitiful, he thought to himself. Not because of Ryouma's empty head promises, but because he decided to hide himself between the trees of a forest of all things when one of his opponents standing before him was one of the most powerful fire type users ever to be produced by Agnigakure. It was time to raise the bar for these two shinobi. Although he was displeased with their current state of skill, his true intentions were to either bring them up to par or eradicate them from the map. The moment Ryouma began using the trees as cover, Kazumei would have already weaved the handsigns representing the Katon: Tenkakyu no Jutsu. In that moment Kazumei would fire off multiple fire balls towards the trees, setting each of them ablaze as well as tearing a few of them down on impact alone. The force of these fireballs was strong enough to not only cause a person serious burns but lifting and sending them flying away a few yards. He would continue to hold this handseal for a few minutes, steadily increasing his firing rate as well as dragging it's different directions, causing the forest around them to slowly light up in a fiery blaze. He would even drag it's direction of fire towards Rengoru as well as Ryouma's now revealed location until they were completely surrounded by wall of flames. The sounds of crackling and popping could be heard from different ends of the forest as branches and debris fell from above towards the forest floor. The scenario had now change significantly for this battle. Hiding and stealth was no longer an option as a result of the forest's drastically changed landscape. The two shinobi were now forced to go out in face to face combat. A battle to the death.

Rengoru looked on as the insulted that was shot from Ryouma and, Rengoru simply smirked at the thought of the Salamander getting its kill with Ryouma. It was not worth a fellow shinobi dying and the looks of the Salmanders deathly gaze…Ryouma wouldn't have lasted no longer than seconds of the summoning time. When Ryouma jumped away Rengoru patted the Salamander with one hand dragging his kitana with the other. Making the Ice cold Salamander breaks into a million ice pieces before lifting his kitana looking to settle whatever vendetta that ached Kazumei. When Kazumei threw the katon: tenkakyu no jutsu Rengoru knew through past ANBU missions anything with katon is wayyy not worth catching the jutsu bare handed. Rengoru dodged and rolled multiple times trying to make sure the flames didn't reach or go near him. It soon became apparent that Rengoru was not the target Ryouma…and the forest would soon bring out Ryouma unless he passed out from the heavy smoke or the heat of the flames would give him burns his body would not heal on its on…Just as that thought crossed his mind Rengoru covered his mouth with a rag he ripped from his kimono. As the flames died down and the battlefield was neither in condition to grow any form of plant life. He crushed a burnt the branch with his feet and then Rengoru completed a quick motion of hand signs which cause a large explosion of mist oozed covering the battlefield as Rengoru faded into the mist. The cold mist would send chills up anyones spine as if a morning mist rolling through plains. The mist would put out the flames from the moisture dampening out the burning tree branches and trunks as the visibility slowed retreat from his opponents eyes. Rengoru summoned two ice clones onto the battle which then through three multiple flame tags at each opponent. The kunais would whistle through the mist as their opponents would unknownly be intercepted by a blast. As the kunais was on the way to their mark one of the Rengoru's would also travel behind the path of the kunais. About 4 seconds behind grabbing a kunai and was headed toward Kazumei…The other towards Ryouma leaving one Rengoru in the middle while concealing himself within the mist. The traveling Rengoru's were exact and precise. The mark was made and the kill was inevitable...

[Enter]
Kenji Uchiha his silvery-white hair flapping about in a dull breeze that pervaded through the path he was taken, sighed deeply as he walked along, hands behind his head as he cradled it there and looked up at the sky, not really paying attention to where he was walking, knowing his partner would be doing that for him. His long black cloak with the Uchiha Clan symbol upon the back was about as inconspicuous as the elephant in the room, but he could care less that people knew what Clan he was from. He'd just defeat them, proving his strength. And then he'd move on, completely ignoring what had just happened. For his mission was what came first. "Man, what a drag." said Kenji aloud, his eyes closing for a moment. "I can't believe they sent a couple of Genin to explore a new Land. Total bs if you ask me..." he was of course talking to the girl that followed closely behind him, but he doubted she had even heard him. She was usually too busy talking with the people in her head. He knew they were there because he could sense them, being a sensory-type, but it was of no consequence to the Uchiha. Because even if she wasn't talking to the voices, it was even more likely she was taking in the sights and smells of the new land. 'What a girl...' he thought, a hint of smirk appearing upon his lips. But then it disappeared just as quickly, and his stony expression returned. "We better get to this new village soon, I'm starving."

 Quite contrary to the belief of the young man she followed, the blonde haired girl had heard and comprehended well every word he had spoke. Unfortunately for him, however, she really didn't have an answer to his question as the wind that caused his hair to dance would also toy with hers.
"Maybe....maybe its just a test and....." she would turn her head this way and that before speaking again, making herself paranoid before she could even finish telling him in completion what she though the reasoning behind it might be. "..and someone is like following behind us to make sure we're safe." The thought seemed a bit more pleasant than the reality, but at very least she had some company other than her sister, which was nice. Usually if left alone with her sister they would get into silly arguments over such inconsequential things as which came first, the chicken or the egg.
'More likely they have someone waiting to meet you here for a test of some variety.', the voice would ring in her head, a soft and pleasant sound like silk rubbing across her consciousness.'I doubt that they would send two genin off by themselves without some rhyme or reason.'
"I know right." she would say out loud, still not quite understanding the fact that if she would simply think her replies to her spirit fox sister then people would believe she was far less crazy. It never looked very good for a person's physiological profile when you often sat in a room by yourself and carried on full length and in depth conversations. Even worse so when arguments sprung up and yelling at "yourself" was the seemingly correct option. "I have a granola bar left if you would like it.", she would say in a slightly quiet voice, the fact that she had a crush on the silver haired boy not making it much easier for her to speak to him. Though under normal conditions her mental dexterity would keep her from saying something off color, it was when they were along that posed interesting problems for the young genin's ability to make sense. "I....I'm not going to eat it so if you want it then you can have it." A quick expedition into her pouch with her left hand would find her a small, plastic wrapped bar. "It's....it's berry flavored."

The forest fire would continue to rage on in the forest and it would continue to spread so long as Kazumei channeled the Tenkakyu no Jutsu throughout different ends of the forest. Although Rengoru had made an attempt to quell the fire, it would work to no avail. Not only was Rengoru's counter to the forest fire weak, but it was also imbecilic on many levels. In order to quell a fire of this size and magnitude, it required the use of a greater as well as a more widespread form of water release, not a cloud of mist that consisted of tiny water particles barely strong enough to put out match. The hidden mist jutsu was used mainly for stealthily attacks and infiltration missions, and it was far from strong enough to put out the smallest of fires. Suddenly the mist would began to evaporate due to the size, rapid spread, as well as the increasing temperatures of the forest fire. Once Rengoru and his ice clones began moving in, Kazumei would maneuver and channel his jutsu in their direction, causing the explosive tags to smash head on into the fireballs. There was nothing inevitable of an intent to kill in the boy's actions, in fact it was far from a true attack containing killing intent. Simple explosive tags and clones were were nothing short of even attempting to successfully kill a great Agnikage of Agnigakure nor a shinobi of the village either. Once the explosive tags were destroyed, the fireballs would keep coming in not only Rengoru and Ryouma's direction, but the ice clones as well. At this point the forest fire had developed into a wildfire. The flames were thickened in the area and the temperatures were scorching.
Now because of a lack of a proper counter and the proper aggression he lacked as a shinobi, Rengoru had more problems at hand. Not only did his ice clones have multiple fireballs heading towards them, they also needed to be concerned of the now increased scorching temperatures that blanketed the forest around them. As a result, the ice clones would began withering away with every move they made. Even the stride that the ice clones were currently in would add to the melting of their bodies because of the hot winds that brushed against their bodies as they ran. Due to the melting of the ice clones, the real Rengoru could easily be distinguished and identified among them. In that instant Kazumei would lock onto the real one before spitting out three larger fireballs about the size of a small house in his direction followed by a bombardment of normal sized Tenkakyu no Jutsu fireballs. Every detail in a battle mattered. The terrain, environmental conditions such as temperature, weather, and more. Perhaps Rengoru could have avoided this had he attacked properly during his first choice of action, however because he did not, he brought this entire situation upon himself and his clones. The battle would only get worst with poor decision made until it would eventually lead to the death of Rengoru as well as Ryouma. Kazumei squeezed his locked handseal until the atmosphere above the forest blackened with smoke, completely blocking out the sun. He would even go as far as blowing two large fireball towards the two shinobi that had just entered the area even though he did not have the slightest clue who they were or what village they reigned from.

Well then. How about that. Rather peculiar weather we having here people. From a nice and cool day to a sudden fire storm to a slightly dampish fire storm. Someone needs to tell Mother Nature to get her s**t straight and take her anti crazy pills, because s**t like this just should not be hap- Oh wait forgot, Ninjas. They ******** with everything that isn't tied to the floor and even then that's not a proper guarantee.. Well Bollux. Of course none of this is going through Ryouma's head, but that's something he doesn't need to know. he just needs to do what he needs while the Author has his bit of fun. Filling space, mocking in general, laughs all around. Upon dispersing with the last of the body seeking fireballs, Ryouma quickly takes stock of his general area, taking note of the change in surroundings. He barely even noticed the mist before it evaporated before him, the heat barely letting it linger before the smoke began to blanket over his general vicinity.
Onto our hero! (pfft right)
Ryouma's body automatically flew into motion as he spied that beady eyed b*****d of a Kage go through the motions of hand signs. He of course could not see what they were due to the distance, but his ears pricked up at he heard the sound of exactly what was coming. Awwww Well s**t. That was certainly the thought of the moment as his hands flew into motion beneath his layers of cloaks, forming seals at a high speed to complete his jutsu. "Fuuton! Kamaitachi No Jutsu!" Unclasping two of his cloaks he flips them out in front of him, the material suddenly becoming stiff as the imbedded wires become stiff from the infusion of chakra from his body. Holding his jury rigged up fans, he quickly begins to dance his body about, turning his hips, moving his legs, swinging his arms out in a wide arc causing the wide spread of small sickles of cutting wind to spread out from the ends of his 'fans'. Creating something close to that of a claymore going off with each swipe, he releases no less than a dozen blades of wind, each blade flying out in a wide spread pattern. Keeping his eyes focused on the onslaught of fire, his body span about in a small area, turning this way and that, releasing blades of wind in each direction of the fireballs. Following each trail of fire, he ensures that they were taken care of from a distance, causing havoc in the forest no less, but far better that himself taking a shot of explosive heat in the face. Wrapping up his Jutsu, he quickly spins his body around, winding up his arms before 'slicing' both of his makeshift fans in a straight horizontal line towards Kazumei. Releasing a great blade of wind in his current direction, the blade itself cutting through debris, trees, and stone itself in it's straightforward assault.
Upon dispersing with the last of the body seeking fireballs, Ryouma quickly takes stock of his general area, taking note of the change in surroundings. He barely even noticed the mist before it evaporated before him, the heat barely letting it linger before the smoke began to blanket over his general vicinity. Well this certainly wont do. However will he be able to see anything at all! if only there was some way to fix this general grievance of not being able to see! If only some great wind user could blow all this away! Oh wait! He was such a great wind user! Silly Ryouma, how forgetful. Letting his 'fans' fall from his grasp, they quickly resume the shape of just clothe as his hands fly into a fury of signs. With each rapid sign, his body quickly builds up it's chakra, cycling it through his body as he prepares his assault. Keeping his eyes forward, watching the two other shinobi, he picks up his cloaks again. Creating makeshift fans he braces himself as heated wind begins to circle about his form. "Fuuton Rendan no Gufuu" Holding his arms out, he pivots about on one foot in a full circle, gothing up wind, fire, smoke, and anything loose upon the ground. Around and around he goes, gathering up more and more until several great spiralling tornados churn around him. Within moments, four great funnels of wind, fire, and smoke spin about his body. Each raging disaster to be stands as high as himself gaining in size and strength as they churn about his form, gathering in more fire and smoke until they seem as if something from Taurtarus itself spat them out. With a great heave of chakra, stamina, and strength, he pushes them all forward towards Rengoru, having been recently exposed by the heat and fire. As they travel forward, they only continue to gather more fire and smoke, becoming great towering funnels of black destruction as they pick up anything that firmly rooted into the earth. With in the short gap of time it takes for it to reach him, each tornado of heated destruction reach up to a towering ten feet, still growing in strength and size as they rampage towards him.

Rengoru covered his mouth as the mist slowly evaporated and to see the ice clones melting to semi-melted ice clones.There was Kazumei that sent huge fireballs sat Rengoru and also the ten foot tornado that is mixed with the elements that surrounded Rengoru. This would seem like such a bad situation…It was far from it. The evaporation would make the air thicker as the kunai with the flame tags was destination was off route…the distraction was inevitable. The evaporation of the mist and the oozing melting ice clone also distractions. The plan was already in motion. The world around these two characters would soon crumble at the unpredictability of Rengoru's FATAL ATTACK… As the fireballs flew towards the semi melted ice clone wasn't a direct hit making the ice clone stay on path towards its destination; the semi-melted ice clone grabbed the kunais since none exploded from being intercepted. Also the tornado would be interrupted by the explosion of the flame tags entering the flesh of Ryouma as he did not noticed as well as he predicted…before completing the rapid hand signs for "Fuuton Rendan No Gufuu" he would feel the piercing thrust of three kunais and milliseconds later an explosion from the torso of Ryouma making the body to be in the form of a half open can from his left side. The last ice clone drew its attention to the revealed Rengoru. The ice clone that traveled to Ryouma did a rapid hand seal "Ice Dome Jutsu" which caused a large sheet of semi dome shaped thicker than normal ice wall on both sides of the real Rengoru. Which would better endure the blows of the fireballs and not be able to destroy and/or crumble. The ice dome technique would protect Rengoru but what would protect Kazumei for the semi-melted ice clone was on his heels face to face with just the kunai drawn back and the semi-melted ice clone hand clenching the literal final explosion of Kazumei's end to be formed as an haymaker. This range made the taijutsu more easily effective and percentage accuracy of landing a bone shattering blow almost inevitable. If this would succeed the battle would definitely end here...

The battle had taken a drastic turn in regard to to the sequence of events that had taken place. The more the landscape changed underneath the sheer force of their attacks, the more Kazumei welcomed it, embracing it as well as reveling in the murderous intent that lingered between himself and his opponents. This had become a true battle now. A battle between flame shinobi.The true symbolization of their communication in it's purest form. However it was finally time for the weakest link to be removed from the battle. Kazumei had anticipated this from the very beginning of the battle. Ryouma had been childish in many ways than one. There was no room for immaturity in Agnigakure. Nor was there room for comedians. As stated before, each shinobi were entitled to their own personalities. However, there was a line set and marked as far as expectations went for each ninja. Should any characteristic or trait stemming from a shinobi's personality intervene with their level of growth in power, that specific shinobi was not fit to be a flame shinobi nor a civilian of the flame village. The weak were separated from the strong, and Ryouma had learned this lesson the hard way, resulting in getting himself killed in one single blow by Rengoru of Agnigakure..
It was a shame to see Ryouma's life cut so short before he could even complete the handsigns representing his wind blade technique, resulting in the entire technique as a whole to become negated. The corpse of Ryouma was the worst part of it all. There were burnt chunks of flesh scattered in pieces on forest floor where Ryouma had been blown away by the explosive tags. Stepping across the boy's corpse, Kazumei released his earlier handseal and deactivated the Tenkakyu no Jutsu. He would stand there for a few moments before glancing in the direction of Rengoru. There was a small smirk present on his face. A small implication that had had been pleased by Rengoru's actions. This was true action, and now things were about to get even more interesting. As Rengoru's ice clones entered melee range, he would allow them to inflict every single blow upon him starting with the kunai as well as the bone shattering taijutsu. In a matter of milliseconds Kazumei's body would swell with a fiery orange radiance before bursting into a tremendous ground shaking explosion of intense scorching magma. The sheer force of the explosion itself had incinerated the ice clones as well completely obliterating Rengoru's ice dome jutsu that protected him, damaging him with burns as well for the simple fact that he had been in the vicinity. Had it not been for his ice clones as well as his ice dome absorbing most of blast's force, Rengoru would find that he and Ryouma were not much different after all.
The forest around them was set ablaze once more, this time doused in more extreme temperatures since they were dealing with magma at this point. The ground itself was drenched in magma puddles and the only safe ground for Rengoru to properly stand was the higher branches. "Yo Bunshin no Jutsu......did you not here me the first time upon my arrival." The same voice from the beginning of the battle spoke out once more. Although this may have been a shocking revelation to any other shinobi watching the battle, Kazumei had expected Rengoru as well as Ryouma to realize this was a magma clone from the very beginning. The name of the jutsu had been the very first words Kazumei had uttered before everything began The true Kazumei had been standing above on the higher branches of the petrified trees, constantly watching every move they made against his magma clone below. "I was beginning to wonder which one of you would detonate it first." He spoke cooly. Standing approximately twenty feet above atop one of the higher branches, he pocketed his hands before slightly tilting his head sideways in as if he were studying Rengoru. "Hmph, I commend you for the kill." He spoke sternly, however there was slight curiosity in his voice. "Rengoru of Agnigakure. You bore your fangs and proved their lethatlity." He gave a dark chuckle upon this statement. By now the magma puddles had sank into the ground, leaving large craters of sunken black earth. "Now let us see if those very fangs can reach me." The air around Kazumei would soon become wavy and distorted as fire chakra emanated immensely from his body. His eyes would radiate a fiery orange as they narrowed and locked upon Rengoru's form. Suddenly Kazumei would vanish from sight, leaving behind flurry of golden flames that faded just as quickly as they appeared. He would suddenly appear side to side next to Rengoru, only this time his signature weapon, Ashikura, had been unsheathed. The blade was a jet onyx color and it glimmered with hot crimson light as he slid it back into it's sheath. The moment it was sheathed, Rengoru would find the sleeve of his kekkei genkai embedded arm sliced open, completely revealing it. Now that the seals of Rengoru's right arm were sliced open, Kazumei could feel the sense the intense fire chakra that dwelt in it. The last time Kazumei had lied eyes on Rengoru's arm was the very day he was forced to strip him of it's power. "It's time you truly show how powerful you have become in these recent years." He spoke in reference to the days when Rengoru had been proven unworthy of wielding his Ashitaka power in comparison to how he had redeemed himself by killing Ryouma. "Prove yourself." In that instant Kazumei would slowly release Ashikura from it's sheath before twisting his form into what appeared to be six foot black tornado that shot towards Rengoru's face at point blank range. The the mere winds produced from this technique moved at razor spinning speeds, however this was far from a tornado. In reality what this technique was composed of was an eye blinding rotation of bodily spins which consisted of precise sword slashes and thrusts aimed at various angles of Rengoru's body ranging from his head, facial, abdomen, as well as his legs. The actual black color of the tornado like form was merely an optical illusion created by the constant rotation of Ashikura's onyx color being projected through the slashes and thrusts while beging spun at the same time.

 As the melee ranged was reached the odds of the taijutsu to work was only a hope considering that a simple move would damage or kill the kage. So when the effect of the magma clone took affect which explodes with magma; it did not surprise Rengoru. The explosion sent magma flying to different ends of the battlefield causing the ice dome to blow apart by being weakened by the magma melting through. This was not into Rengoru's plan but to think he wasted time on a clone was not frustrating due to the fact it is now one on one. As Rengoru rolled he put out the small pockets of fire that had began and now died out. Rengoru planted his long kitana in the soil and rose looking to spot the real kazumei. It wasn't long before the real kazumei showed his location and mocked for the two warriors incompetence to figure out the magma clone. A smirk was not crossing Rengoru's lips as he strategized a counter while Kazuemei talked. "This is just the beginning of a battle to take place", thought Rengoru as he readied a explosion tag kunai which he was concealing when he was rolling. The moment Kazumei disappeared behind Rengoru secretly formed a plan to handle this opponent. When Rengoru's sleeve fell dealing with Kazumei's blade it startled him as the words "prove yourself" distantly faded as Rengoru put two in two together. Rengoru looked as the blades formed a tornado. Just then Rengoru threw the tag at the same branch kazumei was just standing on. The tornado formed as the explosion went off breaking the branch off the tree. As it fell the blades rotated rapidly as the tornado finished forming the jutsu took effect. Rengoru substituted with the branch causing the branch to be riddled with blade marks and pieces to be cut off. Rengoru was falling as he concentrated his chakra to his feet and was able to balance himself to the tree horizontally to the ground. He grabbed his short kitana and placed his long kitana in its sheath. Rengoru had dodged the flurry of blades he thought. He would then notice two piercing pains grow from his left shoulder. Blood trickled as Rengoru wiped it off. "I am not going to make you feel any disappointment in the next life….lets not chat and ramble", said Rengoru as he spoke he formed multiple hand signs. Rengoru locked eyes with Kazumei as he had a plan to finish the battle. The genjutsu would start taking effect soon after completing the hand signs small ice crystals form floating around Rengoru resonating his chakra and merging the wind and water teave chniques. Just then a large ice dragon would form throwing itself at Kazumei with its mouth open ready to devour Kazumei and his very essence off the battlefield. The flames would be swept away by the might of the dragon. A Rengoru would grab kazumei from behind holding him still for the dragon' snack. But if Kazumei he would not see the branch near him neither would the marks be there as well. "piercing frozen air juts" would sound loud as Rengoru flew towards Kazumei behind the dragon almost passing the dragon.which he would perform after complete another set of hand signs.
