The Final Match

THE INFO
Battle Takes Place at the OLD Gekisen Clan House

Spoiler:

The wind blows once. Never to blow naturally again as a massive firework pops in the air above the battlefeild.

Hearing the loud echo pop of the fireworks. Uson was preparing to move out towards the center of land mass. He, and a few others had made it to pyramid in this years Chunin Exam. A moderate sized package had began to descensed from the sky along with the snow droplets the clouds had blessed him with this day. The sound of sonic blows from the wind were ignored by the portriat of streaming colors laced into the skies. He opened his left palm as his supply drifted into the comfort of his hand. Upon viewing his items he had been given a gift from an unknown overwatcher. It's provisions were standard shinobi tools used for combat. He began counting them his eyes taking a mental note of his tools. He began slightly towards a less open region as his silhouette was abducted by the blizzard, and his existence vanished.

Hidio looked out over the compound he was on. The sound of water could be heard close by the walls rose up on either side. The fireworks snapped Hidio to attention. "So the games begin." Hidio looked up and caught a package that descended from the sky. Inside were mutiple tools. "I guess somebody up there likes me and i know it's not mother mature because she's a bitch." Hidio looked around to see if some freak of Nature incident would happen. Hidio continued forward and head to the bridge. "I'll chill out here for now."

Kazumi was at the epicenter of a rather large plain of bright green grass, however this grass was frosted, and covered in snow as well as with the overbearing shadows of the walls which surrounded them. It was a blizzard, but the droplets of snow had subsided and the fireworks had sparked into the skies signaling the beginning of combat. Kazumi simply clasped his hands together forming a few hand seals, "First I need to locate them, and I have the perfect jutsu for that; Barrier: Dome Method Formation." Kazumi's spread out over his immediate location subsequent to a poof of smoke, and the barrier did so similarly. He handed over his explosive tag, and a kunai, taking a seat in the snow which covered the ground, crisscrossing his legs and awaiting his enemies, as he himself was searching for them.

As the white out grew more savage, not even the Moon's illumation could peirce the icy fog. It was nearly immposible to see through the mass of snow. It's direction was haywire and unsettling. It moved along with the zepher pushing and tugging at his attire. His noble robes were stained with the frosty petals of the storm. Uson began to withdraw his evidence of his existence by hiding his chakra, his pressence and heat signature. After all he was an assassin. A battle like this was something he was trained for. Activating his Byakugan his white eye blazed in the below zero inferno. He would hibernate himself while waiting for his opponents to enage in some tyle of fray. He'd mold himself into a spectator to gain information, and then analyze his provisions. Noticing a looming glimmer in his eyes Uson could see an aura of chakra emmiting from some type of barrier. He had been metamorphed into a predator, and had indeed found his prey.

(Whoa, does the description of the battle say there is snow?! This is OOC not affected by RP weather. It is night-time. Continue with the snow but remember its night!)

Hidio looked into the night sky. Hidio ran across the bridge and looked down at the river below hidio jumped down and placed 5 kunais and 5 shuriken in the bank by the river underneath the bridge then hidio place an explsoive tag above. Hidio then climbed back up and rna toward the overhang and drew a kunai.

The false impression of Kazumi found its way through the blinding blizzard, Kazumi residing in Yukigakure so he was fairly used to this weather of all things. Due to the blinding storm, he would go unnoticed by the enemy, even as he crept aside the bridge, taking the more safer route on the water. The blizzard was now flurries instead of a full on storm, so he could see, albeit he didn't need to due to priorly stimulating the barrier around himself and his surroundings, which is how he came to find his opponent. Of course he used hand signs for this when he did it. He stood roughly 5 meters from Hidio, who was on the bridge, Kazumi on the water. Kazumi's formed the tiger seal, stimulating the acrid substance into the air, after Hidio, it went. The elevation did not hinder, and so it would place him in its range. Luckily any torches that were lit, were put out by the blizzard at its peak, and there were none for roughly 40 meters from them. Kazumi took several steps from the bridge Hidio stood on, going the opposite direction, still standing on the water. He was now roughly 20 meters from his previous position, and Hidio would likely see him if he looked from the side of the bridge, but it didn't actually matter.

Uson continuted to his voyague to jounin as a spectaor. The booming sound of the fireworks be heard, but the colors were ardurs in the non transparent for some to see. Thankfully to his White Eye he could the sparks of fire ignite in the sky, but it wasn't the only thing. Uson kept view of his opposing forces from a safe distance of nearly 300 meters. In this snow storm he'd have to play it smart, and collect data upon his opponents, and when the time was right possibly strike the last man stand down with minimual effort. However, seeing as both his opponents were equal rank it'd be smart not to underestimate such beings. He simply waited undercover of night as a lone member of a dead legion.

OOC: Since Hidio never specified a distance, and it was stated that O3 was performed 5 meters from him while I'm directly next to the bridge in the water, considering he's constantly running toward the bridge, and the fact that my gas spreads 5m per post he's well within its range.

Things continued to spread, and Hidio was running toward the bridge, and the substance would spread to accommodate this, however Kazumi's was fed up, and formed the tiger seal, using the Body Flicker to appear between Hidio and his destination. He was in front of Hidio, creating another hand sign, just one foot from collision, and exploded at that moment into a massive explosion, which in turn ignited the nearby gases and the explosion blasted from Kazumi's position of casting O3, 15 meters outward, but since Hidio was continually moving he would only be captured in 5 meters of the blast, plus the blast from the Shadow Clone.

Hidio looked with wide eyes at the explosion started. Hidio tried to flipped away but it was to no use a blast came from behind him and he was squeezed in between the blast the only way for him to survive was to use his jutsu. Hidio aimed his hands at the ground. "Garh... Wind release: Great breakthrough." The wind jutsu sent Hidio 5 meters backward into the air toward the river. "I was lucky. Damn flames." Hidio landed into the snow his foe on the bridge near the overhang. Hidio limped under neath the bridge and waited

Uson began to gather firewood in the dreadful snow storm, as the fray between men continued on in the white night. They eached seemed to be exceptionally well skilled in the ninja tactics. Uson continued to take notes on each shinobi from the shadows as they tested each other in the winter season. Uson sat down with his back turned away from the battle, but kept his Byakugan on to continue collecting data upon the two. In order to counter attack the two he'd wait it out with his gained knowleged, and remove the last man standing in a blink of an eye. For now however he would keep his anatomy close to a warm flame, until his time had come.

Hidio looked with wide eyes at the explosion started. Hidio tried to flipped away but it was to no use a blast came from behind him and he was squeezed in between the blast the only way for him to survive was to use his jutsu. Hidio aimed his hands at the ground. "Garh... Wind release: Great breakthrough." The wind jutsu sent Hidio 5 meters backward into the air toward the river.

Here Hidio basically admitted to being squeezed between the two explosions, and uses the Wind Release: Great Breakthrough to take to the air. However, the Clone Explosion was point blank being only a foot from Hidio meaning as he back flipped the explosion was already happening prior since he said his eyes widened as the explosion started which is in an instant. Also his forward momentum would make it that much harder to flip and change directions since he never stopped running and would run directly into the clone explosion.

IC: Hidio unable to act quickly enough to perform hand signs, or forgetting the whole process entirely, would be struck with extreme concussive force from the front, and an ignition sparked by the explosion of a clone with an explosive tag in its pocket from the back. Both forces colliding at different angles burned the body of Hidio significantly, knocking it unconscious, and into a coma from which death was imminent, and brain damage would disable all function forever. The clone having dispersed directed the entire, however, brief battle back towards the Kazumi which remained at the starting point. "Time to go collect the body." The man, Kazumi, rose and began off in the direction of where the clone had went, it was like he was doing it for the second time. He soon stood over the body of Hidio, gripping Soriken and pulling it forward. The blade began to emanate with chakra and the body of Hidio was sacrificed, the blade streaming back the full chakras of Kazumi, and replenishing no injuries because he didn't have any. After sacrificing the body had been finished, Kazumi followed a reverse route back to where he started, the barrier all the while continually following around the epicenter, Kazumi. He then took a seat exactly where he was prior to getting up. He wondered when the other pest would come into his 'sense'.

Due to Zodiacwolfs Promotion to Jounin. He is no longer eligible for this tournament.

darn it

It appeared one being of the competion was exposed with haste. It's body was covered in the after burst of inflamantion while the limbs soared in various procilivites.

"It's time to enter"

Uson said as he postioned himself upon his two legs. The swirling fire was destoryed by a simple kick of snow upon it's head. The light was gone, and Uson once again entered the realm of ivory darkness as the light of the flame had vansished. Uson had made it to the body of the fallen victim who's frame once layced the snow.

"Thank you for revealing some of his moves. You're death was nessacry for me to gain information."

Uson began to took upon the temporay role of scavanger as he began collecting the shinobi tools Hidio had failed to use before his death. He gathered his kunai, his shuriken, his unused wire, and removed the explosive tag he failed to detonate. Uson looked upon the foot prints of the man who had killed Hidio, following a similar path only to stop twenty-five meters from the barrier. Uson began making snow balls preparing to use them as extra projectiles. As he was hidden perfectly with the snow as his cover. He flung one of the snowballs from a low crouch position waiting to see what type of barrier his enemy had put up. Was a it a protective barrier, or was it a sensory barrier. Whatever it was the man would not see nor hear him in this hailstorm of a blizzard. Uson would keep his eyes upon his prey, as he began his metamorphises from scavanger to predator once again.

Kazumi felt the snow ball enter the barriers range, he did nothing, not even a twitch, however he knew his opponent was nearby, likely just outside the range of the barrier. It didn't matter, he simply continued to sit there with his legs crossed. Apparently his opponent was the cautions type, but ultimately there was no way around this jutsu for the man.

Uson. found out the barrier type was supposedly a type of sensory barrier. To effectively migrate, and subdue his opponent. Uson would grasp another artifical snowball and insert one kunai with an explosive tag inside the vertext of his man made cold projectile. Uson would hurl his projetile bomb towards the human being sitting directly upon his ass. As Uson took his stance he took two paces foward and began to build up chakra inside his left arm . As his second pace made it's imprint upon the snow he gave a whirl from his left with an open palm while release his chakra in order to increase his pitching veloctiy of the said item up to 200 miles per hour aiming for the face of Kazumi. Once the explosive was in of range 5 yards, the young shinobi would detonate the bomb blowing his facade into fragements.

The barrier covered roughly 200 meters in radius from Kazumi at that present moment, meaning Uson was another 25 meters from the barrier ultimately meaning he was 225 meters away from Kazumi. Having thrown a projectile at 200 MPH there was no question whether it had to ability to reach Kazumi; it would, in fact, if it weren't for all the obstructions blocking the snowballs path. A snowball even thrown at that speed had disintegrated immediately as it was thrown revealing its secret contents, a truly unsmarted method of hiding weapons. There was massive walls surrounding the entirety of Kazumi, his area was simply built this way, and as the Kunai with an explosive tag made its way through, it collided with said wall, and exploded before it reached even close to Kazumi. Kazumi was at a distance to where he could see where the explosion took place, and the wall crumbled to provide an area he could easily slip through. “Attacking at such a distance, and based on the trajectory of it; it was aimed directly at me, and since I haven’t sensed this person enter my barrier, it means they attacked from outside its range. Hmm. A Byakugan user. It has to be no other person would be able to see me at this range. I have something in store for this fool.” Kazumi made the ram seal and body flickered over 26 meters toward where the explosion took place, exiting outside the space created by the blast. This of course meant he knew exactly where his opponent was, which caused him to create a string of hand signs before flying into the sky, holding one hand in the air like superman. From such a vantage point as 60 meters high, Kazumi stopped, and saw his opponent, and performed yet another string of hand signs creating a blue orb that exited his mouth a flew at extreme speed toward the Hyuuga. As he took flight his mask blew away, afterward he released a wave of chakra out toward the Hyuuga, and from an angle at that moment he was roughly 50 meters from him if that. After the blue orb was released a Shadow Clone puffed, being grabbed by Kazumi, and it zoomed down after Uson directly at him head first, it clasped its hand together and blew out a massive plume of ash to over Uson’s location covering 5 meters in radius from the clone that was now directly above Uson. Of course this meant Uson was at the very center of this, and would be within the ash itself. “Attack me from long distance. Motherfucker.”

KAZUMI WINS
