We all charged in jumping tree to tree. I felt adrenaline pumping I wasn't scared but the idea of doing something this life threatening was truly exhilarating. I kept looking behind me wanting to see someone there. Wanting to truly prove myself. I looked to my left Celia was behind me frowning slightly. If I could pick what she was thinking I'd say not scared but worried. I then looked to my right unlike Celia Izuki was keeping at my exact pace. He had a confident smirk. We went for a while till we saw a clearing. In the clearing there was a log with a heaven scroll on it. "Well that's one heck of a lame trap." I said uninterested. "Yes but we cannot refuse." Izuki said determined. "What if one of you two gets hurt?" Celia asked worried. "Here!" I tossed Izuki the earth scroll. "I'll go charge, when the trap activates or they attack you two counter." Izuki went to dispute but Celia interrupted "Sounds good." I smiled at her and jumped down. I looked at the scroll. I charged going very quickly at the last second two guys jumped in front of it. I flipped over their head and went for the scroll just for a third to kick me in the mid-section. I landed on my back I looked at him he drew ninja stars and threw them at me. Celia blocked them all with a kunai the other two narrowly dodged a massive amount of kunai thrown at them by Izuki. He jumped in front of them a kunai in each of hand. I stood with a smile. "I call the one with the scroll." I said staring down my opponent. Celia charged the two next to Izuki one of them charged at her pulling a staff and swung it aiming it for her head she ducked under the blow and kicked him in the gut he slid. The other on pulled a short sword and slashed at Izuki, he blocked with both kunai in an X formation. I turned to my opponent he gave me a smile he pulled out two strings with tons of kunai. He then whipped the string sending dozens of kunai my way. I smiled and ducked under the stream of kunai. I ran towards him with a kunai out. He sent a massive amount of kunai all in a straight line fashion. I tried getting close but he had the advantage being a long distance fighter. I jumped up he sent more kunai my way I needed to get close so I blocked them with my kunai but still suffered a few cuts. I got in close as I landed gave him a huge kick to the forehead. He almost fell and I preceded to roundhouse kick his cheek he flew back and skidded for a couple of feet. He stood up and smiled and said "I'll show you the true deadliness of my kunai string. All I'd used so far was my kunai river. That's only my first attack." He said angrily. I only smiled as he picked them up.
(Izuki's Fight/ POV)
He was standing in a kenjutsu stance. He smiled, I thought about it for a couple of seconds. Keeping it long range would be my best option. I leaped back putting a decent distance between us. I then drew as much ninja stars as I could and launched them one at time in rapid succession. He first dodged but then charged while blocking them with his sword. He got within striking distance and slashed for my head. I ducked. He quickly slashed downwards and a dodged to his right he pointed his blade and went to spin stab me. I bent my midsection and instead of being skewered the blade only glazed my stomach. I formed hand signs and he jumped up to avoid it. "Idiot!" I called. I then threw the kunai happy to see that he fell for my ploy. He flinched two kunai grazed his arms, the other two landed in his thighs. "Call me the idiot you should've gone for the kill!" I just smirked and pulled back the strings the kunai lodged in his legs pulled out tipping his body in the air and making him land on his head. "Is that enough?" I taught smugly.
(Celia's Fight/POV)
"Come on how come I'm stuck with the girl?" my opponent asked. I frowned and silently came at him. He swung his staff towards my legs I lifted them and stabbed him in the shoulder with my kunai. He countered with a jab at me I blocked it with my kunai but he leaned it forward and landed a blow on my head. I jumped back to give me room. His staff had a longer reach than me, so I wanted to keep my range. But he launched his staff at me I ducked and threw my kunai at him grazing his shoulder. I smiled and felt a smack on my head. It knocked me senseless I fell to one knee and heard "Die!" I formed the mole hand sign, then said "Earth Style: Earth Mud Wall Jutsu!" A wall of hardened mud blocked the jab he aimed for me. His staff was stuck in the wall. I unformed the hand sign and punched him in the face. He slid away. "Sorry to intervene but we're going to be taking both your scrolls." A voice said behind us. We all turned to see a duo wearing similar clothing standing there.
(Back to Zen)
All of us turned to look at the duo. Unlike the current squad we're fighting wore the same clothing which was a red one strapped shirt with black pants these two wore mask and were from the Leaf. They stood there the only question we were unsure of is how big of a threat they were. The one on the left said "I'll take the wimp with the whips." The other replied "I'll take the red head." They both jumped the whip guy slashed at me with the whip. I ducked the other threw kunai at the whip guy he jumped back. I turned to see the other masked guy aiming for me Celia jumped next to him and kicked him away. A staff came flying her way. I yelled "Fire Style: Fire Pellets Jutsu!" A small fire pellet formed between my middle and index finger I threw it towards the staff on contact it exploded and sent it flying back I jumped in front of the ninja using the staff. I charged and ducked under the blow I kicked towards him, he blocked with the staff. He spun it towards my head I ducked and slashed with a kunai he dodged and jabbed I spun to avoid it and threw my kunai it landed in his shoulder. I jumped back he ran towards me again attacking repeatedly quickly and ruthlessly. I dodged but got a hard hit landed on me. I flew back when he hit me in the gut. I stood up and held my stomach for a second. I he threw it at me I ducked and rushed. Just before I slugged him my legs were taken out. I was surprised to see he had the staff landed on the ground and he jabbed me hard in the gut knocking blood from my stomach into and out my mouth. He went to hit me in the face but I smiled and said "I'm known to have an explosive personality." I then blew up. He flew back pretty beat up. He got up shocked, he panted from the damage from the explosion. "That's one of my favorite techniques, the explosive clone. It's a jutsu passed down for generations from where I come from." I said with a smirk. He turned and a punched him hard he was unconscious before he even touched the ground. I smiled at my handy work.
(Izuki's Fight/POV)
I saw our new arrivals but I didn't have time to worry, this sword ninja was quick and deadly. He slammed the dull into my back then he went to decapitate me. I jumped up and formed hand signs. He jumped back and my kunai trick missed as he jumped up, I smiled and said "Water Style: Raging Water Bullet!" A large water orb slammed into him he spit our blood. He was still conscious and threw his blade I narrowly dodged. He slammed into the ground and pasted out I turned and was frozen at the sight I saw. Celia was on the ground not moving. The one masked one stood above her stretching his arm, the other held the heaven scroll in his hand and the whip guy was dead.
(Zen Again)
Izuki rand towards the guy who defeated Celia. I ran towards the other he smiled and ran towards me too. Being wary I jumped back formed the tiger hand sign and said "Fire Style: Inferno Wave!" A huge amount of fire flew towards him he ran and I spun to try to catch him in the flame. He eventually slowed down and got caught I smiled before I felt a hand grabbed my shoulder. I felt my chakra leave my body slowly I pushed through the fatigue and kneed him in the crouch. It was a desperate but effective move. I then elbowed his face and slammed into the ground. I then gave him an axel kick. He fell to the ground I looked over; the other guy was trying to stretch over me. But I had never seen him so angry and unthinking.
(Izuki's Fight/ POV)
I was going to kill him. No one was allowed to touch Celia, not around me! She's my friend! My only friend! I tried to slash him in the chest with a kunai, but he strangely wrapped around me and was crushing me. I slowly formed hand signs gritting through the pain. I grunted "Water Style: Raging Water Bullet" It caused an explosion we both flew back. He slammed into a tree. Before he could react I said "Ice Style: Ice Orb Jutsu!" A ball of ice flew towards him he got up and it nailed him in the head he fell unconscious. I smiled at my victory and went to finish him. "Ic-" I was promptly kicked by Zen. I fell and looked at him. I jumped on the branch "Why'd you do that?" I asked "He's out leave him alone. I fell to my knee tired. The other masked guy jumped up. He threw ninja stars at us. We both ducked, I called "Water Style: Water Disc Jutsu!" I disc water sliced into tree him just barely dodging it. I then heard "Fire Style: Fire Pellet Jutsu!" I saw a small thing of fire hit him and explode he flew back not defeated but hurt just the same. "Listen!" Zen said "Give us the heaven scroll, you're in no state to fight and you're outnumbered. If you surrender and gives us the scroll we'll allow you and your partner go. If not we'll defeat you and take both the scrolls." Zen said confidently. I was pretty impressed even though we we're in an odd spot he was calm. Maybe I was wrong. The masked man stood up and looked at us. "Damnit! Fine here!" He passed us the heaven scroll. "I'll pay you back don't worry." Zen smiled "Thanks!" He said confidently. He ran away grabbing his partner. We grabbed Celia and retreated to a cave.
