       The Sunken Yacht
       By: Maiku Date: November 9, 2019, 11:13 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Squad 8 Travelling from Iwagakure->In-land
       Roll (20)
       [b]3x Basuriku Clan Members
       58 HP, AC: 15, Speed: 20
       Str: 16, Dex: 8, Con: 15, Int: 2, Wis: 8, Cha: 7
       Atk: Poison Maul (+5 to hit, 2d6+3 damage (+2d6 poison))
       Trait: Dotogan - A rare Land of Stone Kekkei Genkai that allows
       the user to turn what they look at to stone.
       [spoiler=Dotogan]Petrifying Gaze: If a creature starts its turn
       within 30 ft. of the user and the two of them can see each
       other, the user can force the creature to make a DC 12
       Constitution saving throw if the user isn't Incapacitated. On a
       failed save, the creature magically begins to turn to stone and
       is Restrained. It must repeat the saving throw at the end of its
       next turn. On a success, the effect ends. On a failure, the
       creature is Petrified until freed by some kind of jutsu
       A creature that isn't surprised can avert its eyes to avoid the
       saving throw at the start of its turn. If it does so, it can't
       see the user until the start of its next turn, when it can avert
       its eyes again. If it looks at the user in the meantime, it must
       immediately make the save.

       Initiative Roll:
       King 19
       Ezu 19
       Chirai 17
       Towa Basuriku 17
       Taira 16
       Genki Basuriku 5
       Tora Basuriku 1
       [hr]
       King: Walking through the mountainside, king starts to get an
       eerie feeling about himself. They'd only made it a couple miles
       from the village, so the feeling of an imposing threat was
       strange.
       Perception: 21 (success)
       His eyes start to drift through the stone mounds and small
       mountains lining the terrain. The stones were unusually colorful
       with the ground around them strewn with grass. He'd noticed a
       nearby marsh, and wondered if there was some creature lurking
       about that made its home there. It looked big and thick enough
       to house a home to a clan of threats. However, he was only half
       right.
       He saw it, one hidden behind stone 30 ft to his 3 o'clock. And
       then another one to his 10 o'clock. Finally, 60 ft ahead to his
       11 o'clock. He stops in place, and holds out his hands to the
       side. His presence becomes serious to where he were like a
       diamond wall that'd never let the children pass.
       "...Everyone.. don't move.."
       [hr]
       Ezu: Halts in place, looking up to her Sensei with a curious
       gaze in her eye. She looks to the others, making sure they do
       the same. However, the threat hadn't made itself obvious to her
       yet.
       Perception: 12 (Failure)
       "What is it, King Sensei?"
       From his demeanor, she assumed danger, but had no idea what kind
       was closing in.
       [hr]
       Chirai: Instantly tenses up when they stop. He'd received the
       mission briefing on the way down here but it didn't include
       anything about a threat. When the air around them seemed to
       change, it put him in a rare state of alert. The land of stone
       wasn't the favorite of the 5 nations.. And that meant many
       things.
       Perception: 11 (Failure)
       Like his teammate, he's dumbfounded as to what the threat is. To
       be safe, he reaches in to his backpack and draws a single kunai
       to his left hand. He sinks down closer to the ground, preparing
       his body for what might be coming.
       "Bandits?.."
       [hr]
       Towa: Stands behind the rock to the pack leader's 3 o'clock,
       surprised that they'd suddenly stopped. He expected them to keep
       on moving and they would jump them from behind. Whoever they
       were, apparently they were able to get a read on their presence
       here. They weren't just ordinary travelers then.. In fact, one
       closer look at their headbands made it clear, they were
       Iwagakure shinobi.
       Towa smiles slowly, seeing they've come across some promising
       prey.. He wondered if they were famous at all..
       History: 3 (Failure)
       Their faces are lost on him for the moment. He just looks like a
       drooling caveman as he tries to rack his mind for some
       information. He reaches for his back to grip the handle of his
       Maul, dragging it free. Since they were noticed, he thought he'd
       give up the act. He stepped out first.
       "Hey! You're shinobi from Iwa, right?.."
       He starts to chuckle as he walked further, leaving about 20 ft
       between him and the group.
       "The bags, we want em. Hand em over."
       He holds the Maul over his shoulder and taps it with a flex in
       his right muscle just to show how capable he was.
       Intimidation: DC 3
       [hr]
       Taira: Taira hold on to backpack a little tighter when the man
       addresses the group. He was larger than most men he'd seen in
       his life.. The way he slung up that Maul with just one hand was
       something as well..
       Intimidation Save: 11 (Success)
       He leans his head to the side and cracks his neck. He didn't
       feel anything stir inside him. Maybe because his Sensei seemed
       so prepared or something else.. Either way, he readies himself
       where he stands, scanning around for any others.
       Perception: 8 (Failure)
       Like his teammates, Taira is left switching between looking over
       his left shoulder and his right for anyone coming to ambush
       them. It was too strange this one man would try and come at them
       by himself. However, upon further inspection.. he did look like
       the 'strong and dumb' type.
       "Sensei.. what should we do?.."
       [hr]
       Genki: Stares down the pack from afar with his other clanmate.
       They each sported Mauls in their hands as well, and felt just as
       caught off-guard as their cousin who stepped out already. Genki
       had a plan when he did though.. he seemed to have attracted the
       group's attention, leaving Genki and Tora the chance to surprise
       them still. He sinks down to his knees, attempting to conceal
       himself.
       Stealth: 18 DC
       He conceals himself from behind the rock and awaits for how
       things proceed with these shinobi.
       [hr]
       Tora: Notices his clansman further try to hide. Apparently their
       cover might not be completely blown. Still.. leaving Towa to
       handle them by himself might end up being suicide.. 4 shinobi
       was a lot, even for a member of their clan.. He searches his gut
       for some instinct of if he should interfere or not..
       Wisdom check (Interfere): 3 (Failure)
       Something compels Tora to sink to his knees while gripping his
       maul like Genki did. He wanted to see what Towa had up his
       sleeve.. and if he revealed himself, it might just spoil the
       ambush.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       King: Intimidation save: 16 (Success)
       He raises a hand to the air and waves it nonchalantly while
       shaking his head in a similar fashion.
       "Ohh, it just might be bandits.."
       History: 7 (Failure)
       He tries to look for anything about the man to tell some history
       of him, but he can't find any. King lowers his hand and looks
       back to his students with a smile.
       "Now you all stay here.. I'll handle this."
       Just like that, King vanished from where he stood. In a sudden
       rush he made it over to Towa in a matter of 3 seconds. While
       closing that distance, he weaves his hand through a slurry of
       handsigns, reaching out to grasp on to handle of the man's Maul.
       Atk: 17 (Success)
       "Heat no jutsu.."(-20 chakra)
       King's hand causes the weapon to run deep with crackling flames
       that looks as if it's shatter the hammer but instead, they just
       glow. It was like lava running through it as veins. The heat
       that came from it would be similar as well. (8+4 = 12 damage)
       Looking at the man, King expected him to release the weapon he
       held. He was mostly trying to disarm him so they could have a
       word. Just in case, his reflexes were on notice.. He'd readied
       himself for a replacement if it became necessary..
       "Now, now.. What's all this about 'robbing'?"
       [hr]
       Ezu: Intimidation save: 12 (success)
       She stood in place, watching the situation like her Sensei
       commanded. The man seemed easily dealt with when King got to
       him.. the way that weapon lit up, and the way the air around it
       distorted like it were volcano fumes.. She could see the burns
       running across the bandit's hands.
       [hr]
       Chirai: Intimidation save: 20 (success)
       Continues to stand beside his teammates, watching their sensei,
       while staying alert. He was preparing to dodge if anything came
       at them. Still, he was getting antsy..
       [hr]
       Towa: Groans and steps back from where he was, dropping the Maul
       to the ground. He screams with his hands raised above his head,
       noticing the missing flesh from them. His Maul drops to the
       grass with red and pink markings latched to it in the shape of
       his finger prints. Melted off his hands for the moment he held
       the maul. What the hell was going on?.. He steps back a little
       more, leaving 10 ft between him and the ninja.
       Hp: 46 (-12)
       "Tch.. you.. piece of.."
       The man was growing angered and stared at the floor with his
       arms shaking from holding himself back. His black hair draped
       over his face like curtains that barely parted when he lifted
       his head back up to look to King.
       "You're gonna feel hell for that.."
       He stares at King, his eyes.. their shape had changed.
  HTML https://i.imgur.com/zYr3eys.png
       (Dotogan Activated)
       He makes a swing for King with his right first taking the lead,
       driven by his anger.
       Atk: 12 (Fail)
       Before he notices it, King had shifted his body to the side,
       evading his swing. The man catches himself by planting his foot
       in the ground as he growls.
       "Damnit.."
       [hr]
       Taira: Blinks a couple extra times to assure himself he wasn't
       seeing things. The eyes on that eyes.. they'd turned into
       something so hypnotic.. and at the same time, it felt familiar.
       History: 17 (Success)
       "This guy.. he's from.."
       Taira's expression suddenly became dire. He took a few steps
       back from where he stood, making sure there was sufficient space
       between him and the bandit.
       "He's from the Basuriku clan.."
       Suddenly, something more clicks in his mind. His sensei was
       still closeby the man and at risk for what was to come.
       "Sensei! Don't look at his eyes!"
       [hr]
       Genki: Starts moving along a lining of rocks to make his way
       around the children, moving in silence the best that he could.
       He makes it within 30 ft of the kids still bundled up together.
       "This is bad.. he's already using it.. this guy.."
       Genki takes another look at the shinobi who disarmed his cousin.
       So swift and impactful, it seemed Towa had gotten in over his
       head.
       History: 13 (Success)
       Genki's eyes flashed open when he got a better look up close.
       This guy.. he was a jounin from Iwagakure. He was known as
       'Kingu'. He grits his teeth, realizing they couldn't treat them
       like scrubs if this is the man they're dealing with. He waves
       his hand behind him to signal his clansman to follow and
       quickly.
       [hr]
       Tora: Sees his clansman moving in and follows after him, trying
       to move without being seen. He'd keep up, remaining 10 meters
       behind his partner.
       Stealth: 12 DC

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       King: Stares in to Towa's eyes, amazed by the pattern they were
       beginning to take. As his student yells out, King doesn't turn
       his head. His body moves like a flurry again, rushing in to take
       the shinobi out. Since he was already in close range (his
       specialty), he only knew one way to deal with someone with that
       kind of power. He manages to resist looking at the man's eyes as
       he rushes forward
       Dotogan Save: 17 (Success)
       "Good job, Taira!"
       King makes a move for the man, reaching his arm around his neck
       in order to get him locked in to a grapple.
       Grapple: 1 (Epic fail)
       King makes a dive for the man and ends up on the floor, missing
       his grab. He groans and quickly adapts, swinging his arm for the
       man's feet to topple him.
       Grapple: 16 v 14 (Success)
       With his grip on the man. King pushes his feet off the ground to
       make a reach for his back, holding the man in a full-nelson.
       He'd look to the bank of his head while holding the grip with a
       light sigh. He closed his eyes, starting to stir his chakra in
       his chest.
       "How about we all calm down?.. I know there are others. Call
       them off right now. We're a little late."
       The man was forced to face away from King and his squad. Now
       that he had a captive, the negotiating could begin.
       [hr]
       Ezu: Stares at the scene with wide eyes. What she thought was a
       quick blunder from her Sensei was just a quick way to get behind
       his opponent and restrain him.. Smart, considering Taira just
       screamed something about his eyes. She looks to Taira with a
       little worry in her tense eyes.
       "His eyes? What about his eyes?"
       She tried to take a look herself, but he was now facing away
       from them, bound by King. They were just onlookers for now but
       they were learning already. She thought doujutsu were one of the
       scariest things; kekkei genkai. Yet here there sensei was, so
       adept to handle it.
       "Is it a.. kekkei genkai?.."
       She had questions now, and if it were what she thought.. what
       would the man's eyes do?..
       [hr]
       Chirai: Watches with the others, mouth wide and amazement
       stewing up inside of him. That was a large man that their sensei
       just took hold of, right after disarming him. It was so
       effortless. The eyes didn't even seem to be a worry anymore.
       Chirai smiles and raises his fist in a cheer.
       "Wooo! Way to go, King-Sensei!"
       Their first outing and they were already being exposed to the
       skills of a seasoned shinobi.
       He relaxes, lowering his kunai to his side. Though, he still
       needed to see when they could proceed.
       [hr]
       Towa: Growls and struggles to break from the man pinning his
       arms up and his neck forward with an annoying bind.
       Grapple Break: 16 v 12 (Success)
       Towa's arms slam down on the shinobi holding him to force them
       away. His size helped when he thrust his back to King's chest,
       forcing some space. Towa turns around with a smile and a
       clenched fist, ready to plow it into the man who tried holding
       him. He starts to chuckle, feeling the burn on his palm sizzle
       as the exposed flesh folded over itself.
       "I'm going.. to smash your skull in.. shinobi.."
       His tone was low and filled with dread, intending to have that
       feeling carry over to those he now faced.
       Intimidation: DC 5
       [hr]
       Taira: Remains silent at the man breaks free. He heard his
       sensei say something about others being around. Suddenly his
       peace was turned on its head as they'd just been standing there
       like ducks.
       Perception: 7 (Failure)
       Somehow, he just couldn't lock on to anyone else. Coming from
       the stone village, it wasn't rare for death to be hiding in the
       ground for them. Taira remains still, but alert. Worse come to
       worse, he might be able to pull off a replacement.
       "Others?.. They're better at hiding than anything else.."
       [hr]
       Genki: He continues to draw closer to the group, now 10 ft from
       them, he makes his move. He concentrates his chakra and shuts
       his eyes for a moment before abruptly opening them to a change
       in pattern. The same eyes as his clansman going up against King.
       They fixed on the 3 kids with a sly idea brewing in Genki's
       mind.
       Now if the kids noticed him, they'd be pawns for his doujutsu.
       It was almost time to make the checkmate move. How hilarious
       that after trying to take his clansman captive, now these genin
       would be the prey they planned for.
  HTML https://i.imgur.com/zYr3eys.png
       (Dotogan Activated)
       [hr]
       Tora: Tora keeps following behind Genki, still 20 ft from the
       kids. He notices Genki activate his doujutsu as well. Tora
       must've been missing something to see that now both of them were
       using their kekkei genkai. As  precaution, Tora shuts his eyes
       and ascends as well. A third Dotogan now on the battlefield,
       with the 3 genin listed as prey.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       King: Dotogan Check: 3 (Fail)
       King's body starts to become stiff where he stands. As he
       prepares himself to move, his legs lag. In fact, he can't even
       bend his ankle. His whole body from toe to head starts to crack
       and dim in color tone. His face is trapped in what seems like
       horror as the stone overcomes his body, binding him where he is.
       Like a statue decorating the plains of the land of stone; he fit
       right in.
       (Stone)
       [hr]
       Ezu: Intimidation check: 11 (success)
       Her eyes burst open as she screams
       "Sensei!!"
       The tide seeemed to turn. Whatever this man was, he was starting
       to feel like a different kind of threat. What Taira spoke came
       to pass. Now she didn't want to look at the man in any capacity.
       She clenches her teeth and decides to act in order to help. She
       reaches for Chirai's kunai and hurls it towards the man facing
       their sensei. She stares with wide eyes, if it'd hit
       Kunai throw: 19+1=20 (success)
       The kunai speds forwards, heading for the man, aiming for his
       neck to deal with the situation quickly. She gets close, but
       only gets him in his collarbone (4+1+1=6 damage)
       The man was clearly still standing however, and now she made
       them a target. She grits her teeth, becoming more aware of the
       situation.
       "Their eyes.."
       She was going to refer to the one man himself, but she was still
       on edge about the 'others' her sensei mentioned.
       "..they turn you to stone?.."
       [hr]
       Chirai: Intimidation check: 7 (success)
       Groans as he watches his sensei being taken over by stone. He'd
       never seen it before and the jutsu itself was intimidating..
       much more so than the man's attempt to be imposing. He barely
       even noticed Ezu take his kunai and act. He starts switching
       vision between her and the flying weapon in amazement of how
       she'd taken charge. Unfortunately, they were becoming targets.
       "Damnit.." He starts weaving handsigns while taking in a large
       breath. His back reclines and curves to an extraordinary degree
       before he heaves forward, masking the area in a thick fog.
       "Fog cloud no jutsu!!" (-10 chakra)
       The fog continues to spray around him and his team for 20 feet
       outwards. If anyone were trying to catch them in some weird
       gaze, they'd have a hard time now.
       [hr]
       Towa: Towa starts to laugh even louder now, getting ready to
       enjoy beating the life out of this guy. That is, until he took a
       kunai to the rim of his neck.
       "Gah!"
       He stumbles back, gritting his teeth before pulling the kunai
       from his chest. With a heavy breath, he looks at his own blood
       dripping from the end.
       HP: 40 (-6)
       He walks up to the stone King and chuckles at him. He looks over
       his body, noting how small it was, though it made him nimble
       enough to rush at him so quickly in the beginning. The situation
       felt too delicious to finish savoring.. It took a few moments
       before he spoke.
       "Heh.. you ninja always do shit the hard way."
       He grips his fist and pulls it back to throw the kunai in to
       King's stone stomach. It isn't enough to break him but it does
       force him back 5 feet, knocking him to the ground. (2+3= 5/2= 2
       damage)
       [hr]
       Taira: Notices the smoke coming around them, feeling more
       comfortable in that than standing out in the open. He starts to
       weave a couple handsigns as well, seeing they were going to have
       to do something.
       "Don't walk backwards..Grease no jutsu!" (-10 chakra)
       Grease DC: 13
       He turns around and tilts his head back similarly to Chirai when
       he cast the fog. He spits out a large sheet of grease from his
       throat, laying the ground behind them with it. It was enough to
       make a 10ft square, covering their rear for now.
       "That guy was still standing after he got hit with the kunai..
       He won't go down easily.. what do we do?"
       It was crunch time, and he needed some kind of ideas from these
       two.
       [hr]
       Genki: Now that they'd finally gotten close, Genki was excited
       to swoop in and take the kids out. However, his vision became
       blocked when the smoke screen came out. He chuckles and drags
       his Maul from his shoulder, managing its weight with both hands
       now.
       "Little brats.. that won't save you."
       He suspected they'd still be in the cloud so all he had to do
       now was swing through it until he hit one of them. He takes off,
       breaking stealth now that the gig was up. He runs forward with
       his Maul cocked back, ready to swing inside of the fog where he
       last remembered seeing the kids.
       Run on grease: 2-1= 1 (fail)
       Suddenly, Genki found himself planted face first on the ground
       with his face in something thick and wet. He groans, trying to
       get himself together.
       [hr]
       Tora: Runs in after Genki, just barely making it near the kids,
       when he heard a sudden thud in the fog. Genki must've caught one
       of the kids in the skull. He laughs and continues in, readying
       his swing for one of them too.
       Run on grease: 13 (success)
       Tora starts to realize a change in the ground, he nearly slips
       and falls on his face as he rushes in. He can't seem to stop
       himself and tries to get a proper footing to continue forward.
       Run on grease: 6 (fail)
       Unable to regain his balance, Tora drops to the floor as well in
       the midst of the smoke. He hits his chin and groans from the
       discomfort.
       "What in the..?"

       King: HP: 44 (-2)
       Is left as a stone statue laying on the floor, slowly cracking
       from the stabbing thrust made for his stomach. However, a spirit
       still resides within the chakra bound stone form he was in now.
       Free from stone: 11 (fail)
       Alas, he remains on the ground without any ability to move.
       Senseless.
       [hr]
       Ezu: Hears two thuds from behind them. She turns around and
       leans in with a few steps, able to see it was at least another
       man who'd come to sneak up on them from behind. Since there were
       two thuds, she assumed somewhere in this thickness was the other
       man. For now, all she saw with him was the giant hammer he had.
       It was just like the one the guy King-sensei faced used using.
       She thought fast and swung her foot for the hammer in an attempt
       to dislodge it from the man's hand.
       "Taira! The hammers!"
       She'd take the first swing for the guy in front of her, in order
       to free up his grip.
       Disarm Tora: nat20 (auto-success) (disadvantage for 2h cancelled
       by advantage from defender being prone)
       Her foot slips between the man's hands, knocking the grip of the
       maul from his hands. The handle flies up high enough for Ezu to
       take it in her hands. She drags the thing from the floor and
       takes it in hand, staring down at the man.
       [hr]
       Chirai: His chakra kept running out his throat, keeping the
       smoke screen going. Things sounded like they were going well
       behind him. He just needed to keep his team covered for now.. Or
       else they'd end up like their Sensei.
       On and on, the smoke ran out his mouth (-10 chakra)
       [hr]
       Towa: Looks over at the smoke screen that took over the area. He
       wonders what to do about those kids but then he looks to the
       stone King laid before him. He forgot how hard it was to kill
       things when they were stone. Its what his trusty maul was for.
       Unfortunately, the thing still rang with a burning heat from
       that jutsu earlier. It pissed him off even more. He roars and
       leans down to start stabbing his stone statue with the kunai,
       chipping away at him. (2+3= 5/2= 2 damage)
       [hr]
       Taira: Nods at his teammate calling for him. His other target
       had fallen about 10 ft in front of him. He couldn't run straight
       ahead and risk being knocked over by his own grease. He ran 5 ft
       to his left, then 10 ft forward, now able to see the man holding
       the large Maul. He moves forward another 5 ft and then comes
       behind Genki for his final 5. Where he stands. He holds a
       holdseal after running through a stream of them while in the
       smoke cloud. He looks sternly at the fallen men and prepares to
       slam down his palms.
       "Earth Tremor jutsu!!"(-10 chakra)
       His hands, sparking with a light blue glow, resemble a waterfall
       as he thrusts towards the floor. He causes the earth to cave in
       slightly at first. THen his chakra took effect. The stone floor
       for 10 ft outwards started to give. Then it caved, and finally
       it exploded outwards, throwing stone on the two bodies he'd
       caught in it. (5 damage)
       He leaves the area a mess of thrown stones dripping in grease,
       while smoke continues to flow through the air. It was starting
       to resemble a dirty blacksmith shop.
       [hr]
       Genki: Yells out on the ground as the earth explodes on his
       chest, leaving him in rubble.
       HP: 53 (-5)
       After all was said and done, he'd taken worse hits and he was
       built for much more than that. He starts to struggle his way to
       being able to stand again.
       Stand on terrain: 10 (Fail)
       Genki sturggles and collapses to his chest again, unable to
       maneuver properly. He was starting become steaming mad at these
       kids.
       "You.. you.."
       [hr]
       Tora: Tora was left speechless when he lost grip on his maul. He
       screams out at the girl- or at least he tries to before the
       stone floor pulls him down then explodes under him.
       HP: 53 (-5)
       Like his clansman, he tries to get to his feet. He slams both
       hands down on the ground and makes the vague vision of a girl
       before him his target.
       Stand on terrain: 11 (Fail)
       Also like Genki, Tora can't manage to get up and remains on the
       ground, stirring in the mixture of grease and stone.
       "G-give me back.. my hammer.."

       King: HP: 42 (-2)
       Laid there as a stone target, stabbed away at by the shinobi.
       Free from stone: 8 (Fail)
       [hr]
       Ezu: Scoffs at the man who asks her for his hammer back. She
       picks it up and holds it over her head before swinging it down
       on him with a heavy grunt
       "Here!"
       Atk: 18 (success)
       With all her might she swings the maul for the man's body, with
       her eyes closed to avoid looking it in the eye. The space right
       in front of her. Yeah.. he hadn't gotten up.. she'd definitely
       hit him!
       'CRACK' ((3+3)+(4+2)+(1)= 13 damage (6/13 poison))
       "Chirai! Come, hurry! Just swing this hammer in front of me,
       hurry! Don't look!"
       [hr]
       Chirai stops spewing the fog around his team and lets the rest
       of it linger. He turns around, wading through it until he came
       up behind Ezu, bumping in to her. He steps to the side of her
       with his eyes closed, like she said. He imagined they were
       avoiding these things' eyes.. He heard something crack after she
       just swung that hammer. And a scream following it. No doubt
       about it, she was slamming it down on this guy.
       He reaches out for her arm, running his hand down it to take the
       maul by the hilt. He drags it up with a groan and slams it down
       on the floor in front of where his teammate had been facing.
       Atk: 16 (Success)
       "Graahh!!"
       'Crack' ((5+1)+(1+1)+3= 11 damage (2/11 poison))
       The hammer comes down again on the same back. Forcing the same
       scream to come from him. If you listened closely, you could even
       hear the splatter of blood coming from somewhere.. perhaps his
       mouth or his back by now. Chirai holds the handle close to Ezu,
       ready for her to take her turn.
       [hr]
       Towa: Continues to do what he was doing. (1+3= 4/2= 2 damage)
       [hr]
       Taira was now being covered in the dispersing fog. It was
       leaving where Chirai had originally been standing and rolling
       outwards. He wasn't going to give up the oppurtunity they had
       now to deal with these guys. Taira readied his chakra in his
       hands again, without coming up from the floor. He didn't need to
       look ot anything, just force his chakra into the rock so much
       that he'd turn it to sand if he had to.
       "Earth Tremor jutsu!!" (-10 chakra)
       The stone unfortunately didn't give very much this time. Taira
       wasn't used to using the jutsu so repetitively but in the heat
       of the moment, he was being pressured. He starts slowing his
       breathing.
       "Breathe.. breathe.. haaah.."
       [hr]
       Genki: HP: 52 (-1)
       Hears the screams of his clansman beside him and claws his hands
       into the ground to get himself to stand up.
       "Toraaa!!"
       His fierceness drags him from where he laid. He brings his Maul
       up with him, standing as the last real remaining threat to the
       squad. He still couldn't see through the smoke over him but he
       knew where the screams were coming from. He'd just have to swing
       in a circle over Tora's head.
       "Hang in there Tora.. stay down.."
       He braces himself, assuming Tora would listen and not try to
       stand up.
       [hr]
       Tora: 28 (-25)
       Tora's bones were screaming at him. He tries to crawl away to
       his left, away from the girl and boy assaulting him and his
       clansman to his right. His hands grip at the ground, moving only
       10 ft away in his condition. In his mind, all he could repeat
       was 'Get them big brother..'

       King: HP: 40 (-2)
       Still left in his stone state.
       [hr]
       Ezu: Reaches out to Chirai's hand now that she could see it. She
       looks at him with a serious glare but also.. a slight smile
       behind her sweat. The fog was thinning and she could see the
       damage they'd done together so far. They could even see the
       target crawling away, though they didn't get far. Ezu didn't
       waste the moment and rushes forward, dragging the Maul with her.
       "You're not going.."
       She lifts it up above her head, letting gravity and her
       adrenaline carry it down.
       Atk: 5 (advantage/fail)
       The hammer lands in solid stone, breaking it into little chips
       that flew through the air.
       "Damnit.. Chirai!"
       [hr]
       Chirai: He makes a run for it, right after Ezu, leaving the
       broken stone floor and slick grease behind. He noticed a man
       getting up as the fog cleared but he averts his eyes suddenly to
       avoid any eye contact. He fixates his vision on the back of the
       one crawling away. He was hopeful for his teammate to swing the
       hammer down on him and put him near his end. Unfortunately, one
       of the men just barely crawled out of reach. Now that chirai
       steps forward, taking the maul handle, he roars again.
       "No you don't!"
       Atk: 17 (advantage/success)
       "Graahh!"
       He releases his might down on the man, managing to slam into his
       leg with the hammer, hearing his bones suffer the blow once
       again. ((3+3)+(4+6)+3= 19 damage)
       [hr]
       Towa: Does as he was doing (1+3= 4/2 = 2 damage)
       He starts to notice the heat dim on his weapon. The jutsu had an
       expiration on it apparently. He smiles, turning to his stone
       carving underneath him.
       "When your stupid jutsu's over.. I'm going to turn you in to
       dirt.."
       [hr]
       Taira: "Oh no you don't.."
       Taira notices the second one still holding their Maul get up. He
       yells out, avoiding eye contact as he throws his palms down into
       the ground again.
       "Raaahhh!!! Earth Tremor Jutsu!!" (-10 chakra)
       This time, he tried to put an extra oomph in it..
       Atk: 5v4 (success)
       The ground started to rock and roll again, sending pulse after
       pulse, starting to feel the drain on his chakra. He'd managed to
       turn over the remaining stone under Genki's feet, forcing him to
       the ground again. (1 damage)
       Taira smiles, looking over to his teammates.
       "Hurry and finish it!"
       [hr]
       Genki: HP: 51 (-1)
       Genki finds himself down on the ground again with his rage
       taking over his senses. Falling in to the slick again and again
       made him feel like he was being toyed with.
       Stand on grease: 14 (success)
       Genki doesn't stay down for long however and uses his Maul to
       get back to his feet this time. He was breathing heavily, seeing
       those kids close to attacking his clansman and possibly..
       killing him. It was between them and this other guy who kept
       breaking the floor from under him before he had the chance to
       move. At this rate...
       A single drop of sweat ran down his forehead.
       "They're so destrucive.. unorganized.. wild.. why.. why can
       they.."
       [hr]
       Tora: HP: 9 (-19)
       Remains on the floor, slowly rising to his feet with the shinobi
       on his heel. He can't even bring himself to attack them. His
       back feels crooked and he stumbled just trying to get on his
       right leg. He drops to his knee in his struggle.
       "Damnit.. damnit.."
       He couldn't run away, and he wouldn't be able to take both of
       those kids out.. but maybe.. just maybe..
       He turns around, staring the kids in their souls. He intended to
       turn them into a similar display as their sensei. Stone statues.
       "Come!!"

       King: HP: 38 (-2)
       Stone with less and less left in him.
       [hr]
       Ezu: She stands still, looking at Chirai ahead of her, holding
       the maul down on the man like a paper weight. She huffs from
       dragging that thing around when she wasn't trained in using it.
       Looking over the situation.. something comes over her. She
       starts running through scenarios faster than her normal thinking
       mind. She forsees how things turn out if they continue to pursue
       these men. From how it stands, Chirai could block their eyes,
       while Taira leaves them vulnerable. After that, they'd abuse
       them with their own weapons.. yes.. that could work.
       But
       There was their sensei. Who'd fallen under a condition that they
       didn't have much knowledge of. If anything was important, it was
       rescuing him. The only ones who could do that though would need
       a little convincing. She aimed her body to the near-death
       ambusher and spoke aloud.
       "If we come, we'll kill all of you.."
       With the routes of action she'd run through, she even believed
       that a little bit.
       "Your eyes won't catch us anymore.. and you'll never hit us..
       Undo whatever you did to our sensei and leave us alone.. and
       this can end here."
       Persuasion: nat20 (success)
       She kept her vision to the stone beneath them, not daring to
       look up. She felt it might take away from her speech but.. the
       facts didn't. She was serious.
       [hr]
       Chirai: Stood beside Ezu, watching her in amazement. She took
       command so naturally like she were the squad leader. And the
       demands she made.. while all he was thinking about was knocking
       their heads off. Swinging this thing was fun, but it was heavy
       and a little tiring. To keep it up for two more of them might've
       been asking too much. Inside, he was happy she was negotiating.
       He just stood there holding the maul, ready to act if necessary.
       [hr]
       Towa: Looks over to the area that had now been blown clear of
       smog. What he thought was going on apparently wasn't the case.
       The tide of the battle was against his clansmen. He stands up
       tall over King and fixates his horrid glare to the three genin
       about 50 ft from him.
       "HEY! WHAT THE FUCK!"
       He starts walking towards them, eyes gleaming with anger with
       his kekkei genkai still clear to see.
       "You look like real easy stone to break."
       He could hear Ezu's threat.. One closer look at his clanmate
       showed just how much he'd been through in that short time. Towa
       was feeling lost for words. He'd stop 30 ft from them, lest he
       provoke them to carry out their final swing on his near-crippled
       cousin.
       "You drop that damn hammer right now, kid. It ain't for the
       likes of you."
       The maul had an insignia carved into the very side of it's giant
       head. From it flowed a thin liquid to the back of Tora, melting
       away at his clothes and his skin as it sat upon him. A vile
       poison/acid hybrid that was the pride of the Basuriku clan.
       [hr]
       Taira: He soon realized that terrain advantage was his strength
       in this encounter. To keep up with that, he had to make sure
       these doujutsu users danced how he wanted them to. He steps to
       the left, heading towards Chirai and Ezu but doesn't move more
       than 5 ft before he starts making handseals. He stops and
       launches another large splatter of grease to lay over the
       ground. This way, if Genki started heading after anyone on the
       squad, he'd have a grease puddle to trek through.
       "Grease no jutsu!" (-10 chakra)
       "You should listen to her.. we're shinobi of Iwagakure. Don't
       underestimate us."
       The weight of battle, it was starting to settle. Pursue, or
       peace? It would mean the end of someones life in the end.
       [hr]
       Genki: Stands where he is, cursing the grease pile thrown out at
       him. The boy seemed to be doing his best to keep his distance,
       repeating the same jutsu. Still, it was infuriating. It was
       almost enough to have him forget his clansman.. He waited where
       he was to see what Tora wanted to do. Pursuing them right now
       wasn't a good idea from the battlefield's current standpoint.
       Especially with Towa not having his maul either.
       "Tch.."
       As the girl spoke, they couldn't help but feel on the losing
       side, even with that Jounin down. They were his students..
       Students of the great Kingu. They might've been in over their
       heads.
       [hr]
       Tora: Keeps huffing where he stands, arms dangling and blood
       dripping from the thick of his lip. He heard the girl speak and
       his clansmen respond. The more he thought of it, the more he
       knew he couldn't stand against them. The best he could do would
       be trying to get the maul back but.. between two shinobi, he
       didn't have much life left. His clansmen were too far out of
       reach now. All this for a random robbery.
       "Heh.."
       Tora looks to Genki and Towa before lowering his head in shame.
       "Genki.. Towa.. I'm sorry.. I can't go on."
       He was shaking. Not from fear, but from the position he'd left
       them in. He wanted to live and barely clung to life as it was.
       His eyes then turned back to a classic dark brown. He was
       finished fighting.
       "Whatever you two decide.."
       He clenches his fists, as if he isn't completely ready to
       surrender if his clansmen decide to keep pushing.

       King: A lovely statue in the dirt.
       [hr]
       Ezu: She holds firm, staring the men down, awaiting an answer.
       She didn't trust them however, and she had chakra stirring in
       herself for a replacement if need be.
       [hr]
       Chirai: Chirai stuck with Ezu, holding the maul on wait for her
       orders. That last time they looked at eachother, she actually
       smiled at him. He wasn't going to mess this up. He'd have to
       play his part for the team.
       [hr]
       Towa: He could barely contain his anger. His clan backed into a
       position like this by some stupid shinobi. He looks over to
       their sensei who he'd been chipping away at. He was having a lot
       of fun over there but now that Tora was in danger, things
       changed. He could see Genki struggling as well. One last look at
       his original maul showed that the fire hadn't left it yet. He
       wouldn't be able to do much back to these kids. Especially if it
       became 3 on one. There was a long silence over the scene.
       .......
       "Fine."
       Towa's eyes shifted back over to King. He started to draw his
       chakra from the stone man just by looking at him. The chakra had
       special properties that caused the body to become stiff and
       dense just like stone. Those pieces he chipped away left red
       holes that turned to free flowing blood when the technique came
       undone. for his own safety, Towa starts walking away from the
       whole lot of them. His eyes would return to their dark brown
       nature as well.
       "Be careful out here.. ninja."
       To his disappointment, he'd lost his hammer. However, family was
       still important to him. He'd come out here with his cousins to
       provide for the clan. He couldn't return without one of them.
       His aunties would hate him forever.
       With that, he turns to walk away, heading towards the mountain.
       [hr]
       Taira: Watches the original aggressor carry himself from the
       battlefield. He stayed on alert, holding his hands together in
       preparation for a jutsu if need be.
       [hr]
       Genki: He didn't take kindly to the retreat, but it couldn't be
       helped. It all just turned out to be an unfortunate encounter.
       One where one or both sides would suffer heavy losses. He
       understood Towa's decidion, but it didn't sit right with Genki's
       pride.
       As he walks away, following Towa, he stares at King. He undoes
       his own Dotogan and just ponders for a moment.. how was it his
       students put up such an offensive when he went down easily. Did
       they just adapt?
       He looks to the 3 Genin last without uttering a word. He
       proceeds to leave.
       [hr]
       Tora: Walks off from the scene, leaving his hammer behind. From
       the amount they had used it, they must have caused all the
       poison to splash out of it. It was just a custom designed maul
       now. He could always get a new one with Towa.
       He had no real words for the shinobi as he followed after Genki
       and Towa. Just two when they were almost out of sight.
       "Next time.."
       VICTORY
       Exp Awarded (Win by Forced Retreat): 2100/2= 1050/4= 262 each
