The air was cool on this particular day. Looking up at the sky, Achilles peered toward the sun, with a hand blocking his eyes. The sunlight was warm, it felt good on his skin. He cracked a smile as he thought about the upcoming fight, it had been quite a long time since he had been in one, so this was a great opportunity to scrape the rust off. Looking back down at his opponent, he observed her. She looked quite formidable, if nothing else definitely a worthy opponent for his return.
"Well there, miss, thank you for hearing out my selfish request. With that being said, I can't exactly go easy on you here."
Saying that, Achilles had passively activated his sensory, allowing him to freely sense his opponent's chakra, along with any and all other sources of it that may arise on the battlefield over the course of their coming skirmish. Bringing his arms above his head and clasping his fingers, he stretched them toward the sky, before bringing them back down and stretching out his legs, bending each knee to squat down and extending each leg in turn, leaning to the sides as he did so. Finally, he stood back up, fairly certain his opponent was ready.
"Anyways, shall we then, miss?"
In a raw burst of speed, Achilles dashed at his opponent head on. Producing a fuma shuriken, he extended it's blades from the previously locked position and infused his lightning chakra into it as he violently hurled it at her. The shuriken was give off a distinct buzzing sound and light blue glow from the lightning chakra as it cut through the crisp air and approached her. Still sprinting at his opponent, Achilles would immediately channel water chakra into the ground below the woman, causing a gushing of water to rapidly rise up and manifest a sphere of liquid that would trap her and constrain her movements. If nothing was done about the sphere as well as the approaching shuriken, she would be struck by it in the chest, and electrocuted to an even heavier degree than otherwise due to the sphere of water acting as a natural conductor for the electricity.

passive: (Chakra Henkanshi no Jutsu) - Chakra Sensing Technique
Type: Supplementary Rank: C Range: Short - Long Chakra: 15 (- 5 per turn) Damage: N/A Description: This is a very advanced of advancing the ability to feel and sense chakra. The technique allows the user to concentrate and detect someone's chakra. Users can use this to determine the nature of a jutsu used as well as sense masses of chakra. The use of this can be compared to Sharingan's brutish level of sensory, able to sense collection of chakra but not the level of clarity and precision Byakugan has.
It was nice to see a worthy opponent on a beautiful day. Leda's cup of tea. As her opponent warmed up, so did she. Bending each leg from side to side and lowering her hips to the ground, stretching her legs. Namely her hamstrings and quads being that she was a very physical fighter. Up close and personal is what she had always preferred. After hearing him jabber on about her accepting his request and going easy on her blah blah blah, Leda didn't care much. She stood up and bowed to the shinobi. Seemed like he wanted to get things started off hot, as did Leda. She loved it. But this simply wasn't going to go the man's way...
"Jumpy, aren't you?" Leda said jokingly. She activated her inner sonar, able to hear everything the shinobi did. Even his first step as the grass blew with the friction of his foot to the lightning crackling on the giant shuriken he wanted to throw so badly. Hearing this, right when he threw it, she appeared to vanish and in this vanished state, she would dash past the giant shuriken, letting it pass her up completely and appearing before the shinobi in short range as he was also running her way. Leda was quite the fast opponent so this all happened relatively quickly. When meeting him in short range, Leda surprisingly just smacked the man in the face albeit playfully. Still probably stung bit...
"That's it?" Leda snickered. "You'll have to try harder than that. Try again." Leda smiled, taunting her opponent.

Description: The user will enhance their hearing by infusing his ears with sound chakra. Then, by utilizing chakra and enfacing his lungs, the user will be able to control the frequency and intensity of the sound emitted from his simple breathing. This low frequency, inaudible sound is passively emitted and has no effect other than emerging from him and bouncing off of objects. Using the enhanced hearing, the user is able to know where everything is around them, effectively creating a sonar effect through the rebound and reflection of sound waves. The hearing and the sonar effect is precise enough so that one can effectively use it to substitute one's vision in battle if needed. Despite being very effective, specially if the user has any of his other senses hindered, it also leaves the user vulnerable to sound genjutsu or sound attacks which will be much more drastic in its effects.

Description: Kobudo Kumite refers to the free fighting style of Hayabusa Kobudo. Hayabusa hone their fighting style through the practice of kata (forms) and bunkai (application) which utilize the dantian and Neidan. Over the years, four essential kumite styles have come out of Hayabusa Kobudo that all Hayabusa must learn; Huquan, Shequan, Longquan, and Wuquan.
Huquan (Tiger Fist)
Hu Quan is the fundamental fighting form of Hayabusa Kobudo. The form is characterized as the most direct and offensive style of fighting. Hayabusa will use their lower dantian to draw physical essence from nothingness (Wuji) into their being. The essence reinforces the user’s being increasing their physical speed, strength, and awareness allowing them to heightened feats of physical combat. This essence is visualized as barely visible distortions in the air surrounding the user and their weapons. The user is able to perform taijutsu, kenjutsu, bukijutsu and other acrobatic movements at twice their normal speed as well as react to anything as long as it is within their range of sensory perception (five senses, taijin, etc). Alternatively, the user can move linearly three times their speed (chunin and above), however this level of movement cannot be maintained for longer than a single turn. As for their power, Hayabusa gain +20 to their taijutsu and weapon based techniques (swords, staffs, axes, etc) while using Huquan. The essence that surrounds the user and their weapons capable of erasing physical matter (Earth, Steel, etc) at the point of contact allowing the user's physical attacks to cut through anything destructible. The user can use Huquan fighting in successive turns depending on their rank which reflects their overall physical condition. Genin and Chunin can only use Huquan for a single turn. Jounin and Head Ninja can maintain it for 2 successive turns. Dragon Ninja are able to maintain it for 3 turns at a time and Masters 4 turns. The drawback to Huquan is that, the user can only use lower dantian based techniques and non-elemental techniques while they are using this form. If used for more than two successive turns, the user experiences a cooldown of one turn plus the number of turns over 2 they utilize this style. For those who are limited to two turns and below, they require a single turn cool down before re-use. Haquan can be used twice for genin - jounin, thrice for Head and Dragon Ninja, and four times for master ninja.
Shequan (Snake Fist)
She Quan is the second form of Hayabusa Kobudo and is characterized as being the most deceptive of the fighting forms. This form makes use of the Hayabusa's passive ability to control their own existence while they are engaging in physical combat with opponents. As the user attacks, they may passively expend 30 chakra to erase themselves from the opponent's five basic senses by manipulating all three dantian. What this means is that the opponent will not be able to perceive the attacks until the last possible moment when the user strikes, resulting in every physical attack while under the influence of Shequan to result in a critical hit. The user can use Shequan fighting in successive turns depending on their rank which reflects their overall physical condition. Genin and Chunin can only use Shequan for a single turn. Jounin and Head Ninja can maintain it for 2 successive turns. Dragon Ninja are able to maintain it for 3 turns at a time and Masters 4 turns. The drawback to Shequan is that, the user can only use lower, upper and middle dantian based techniques and non-elemental techniques while they are using this form. If used for more than two successive turns, the user experiences a cooldown of one turn plus the number of turns over 2 they utilize this style. For those who are limited to two turns and below, they require a single turn cool down before re-use. Shequan can be used twice for genin - jounin, thrice for Head and Dragon Ninja, and four times for master ninja.
Longquan (Dragon Fist)
Longquan is the third form of Hayabusa Kubodo. It is classified as the most ranged of the fighting forms and utilizes the Hayabusa's ability to erase objects from existence. This form starts with the user passively embedding their Dragon chakra from the lower and middle dantian into their ranged attacks such as kunai or shuriken. As the user throws the objects the Dragon Chakra activates when they are at least in a 2m range of foreign chakra sources. Instantaneously, the Dragon chakra activates and creates a short-range 2m wide distortion similar to Kamui. These distortions are capable of erasing objects up to A-rank and may be passively activated by the user if necessary to spawn the distortion at their discretion. Objects erased by this method are capable of being returned by utilizing Taji Dao using the respective dantian. The user can use Longquan fighting in successive turns depending on their rank which reflects their overall physical condition; attaching Wuji to their ranged attacks to erase other objects can be executed once per turn that the user is able to keep the form active. Genin and Chunin can only use Longquan for a single turn. Jounin and Head Ninja can maintain it for 2 successive turns. Dragon Ninja are able to maintain it for 3 turns at a time and Masters 4 turns. The drawback to Longquan is that, the user can only use lower and middle dantian based techniques and non-elemental techniques while they are using this form. If used for more than two successive turns, the user experiences a cooldown of one turn plus the number of turns over 2 they utilize this style. For those who are limited to two turns and below, they require a single turn cool down before re-use. Longquan can be used twice for genin - jounin, thrice for Head and Dragon Ninja, and four times for master ninja.
Wuquan ( No Fist)
Wu Quan is the fourth and final form of the Hayabusa Kobodo, and is the most defensive of the style. This form is characterized by its use of the Hayabusa's dantain to combat opponent's on a spiritual/mental battlefield as well as the physical one. This form starts with the user's surging Dragon chakra to every point in their body utilizing all three dantian. This greatly bolsters the user's physical and spirtual defense as the user is now capable of reducing 20 damage from physical and spiritual attacks while in this form. Defensive techniques preformed during this time are also empowered by one rank (does not apply to techniques that can also used offensively). The user can use Wuquan fighting in successive turns depending on their rank which reflects their overall physical condition. Genin and Chunin can only use Wuquan for a single turn. Jounin and Head Ninja can maintain it for 2 successive turns. Dragon Ninja are able to maintain it for 3 turns at a time and Masters 4 turns. The drawback to Wuquan is that, the user can only use lower, middle or upper dantian based techniques and non-elemental techniques while they are using this form. If used for more than two successive turns, the user experiences a cooldown of one turn plus the number of turns over 2 they utilize this style. For those who are limited to two turns and below, they require a single turn cool down before re-use. Wuquan can be used twice for genin - jounin, thrice for Head and Dragon Ninja, and four times for master ninja.
Note: Only one form at a time can be utilized. User cannot use a Form while experiencing the cooldown of another.
Note: Members are capable of submitting their own Hayabusa Kobudo techniques after having completed all initial forms derived from this technique.

Achilles was shocked to see his opponent suddenly disappear where she was just standing, and what was even more, he could not feel her chakra whatsoever even as a sensor. The lightning infused shuriken would simply whiz past the location she was previously standing. Stopping in his tracks, Achilles viewed his surroundings, searching for her. But he could not see, nor feel her chakra.
Suddenly, Leda would appear before Achilles, and begin a strike at his face with a slap. Able to perceive her visually once again, he would act. Bringing his hands together, he would form a single seal, and release a full body surge of lightning chakra into the air. The result would be the manifestation of countless rings of lightning that surrounded Achilles from his feet all the way to the top of his head, hovering in a way that they would be an inch off of his body, and follow his movements as he did anything. The rings would manifest as her hand was mere inches off of his face, cause the ones off his face to occupy the space where her hand was. Now, as she was shocked and damaged, Achilles would make a step forward while bending low, then thrust his left palm into Leda's abdomen, lifting her into the air about two meters. The rings of electricity would continue to aid in the assault, as even his fingers would be covered in them.
Now standing below and slightly in front of her, Achilles would channel fire chakra into his mouth after building it up in his lungs, and release a massive fireball at her, completely consuming Leda.
Type: Supplementary / Defensive / Offensive Rank: A Range: Short - Mid Chakra: 30 Damage: 60 to objects/people who touch it (+10 to future lightning techniques)
Description: Storm Mail is the name of a lightning technique that amplifies the user’s lightning style techniques while acting as both a defense and offense. The user weaves four hand seals, and releases a full body surge of chakra, which takes the shape of rings of lightning. These rings surround the user from ankles to the top of their head, being an inch off of their body in all cases. Alternatively, the rings can manifest themselves up to short range around the user, where they will fly around rapidly, attempting to cut into anything before going to the user’s body. In this case, the rings return to the user’s body at whatever rank they would be after clashing with any techniques. The rings have a number of advanced applications that this technique utilizes. Because they do not cover the entire body, they are generally better suited to defending against taijutsu and kenjutsu than they are against ninjutsu, however, if a jutsu is not large enough scale, the armor can defend against it due to the spacing between each ring (a good example of this would be the canon technique “Water Style: Water Dragon Whip”). If something touches the armor/rings, it shocks them for 60 damage.
Once per turn, the user can infuse part of the strength of the armor into a lightning jutsu of their own, lowering the rank of the armor by one, and increasing the damage of the jutsu by 10 by transferring the chakra. Doing so costs a move, but can occur in the same timeframe as performing the jutsu. As the rank of the armor decreases from infusing chakra from it into techniques, the damage the armor does to people that touch it decreases to match that new rank (with boosts to the armor from other techniques applying afterwards).
Once per turn, the user can levitate off the ground up to ten meters in the air by charging the rings with an electrical field identical to the one in the canon technique “Lightning Style: Lightning Blades Levitation.” While levitating through the air, the user moves at their regular running speed, which is determined by their rank. The levitation effect can be released at any time by the user, and lasts two turns, with a maximum of two usages per usage of the jutsu.
-Levitation can only occur / be utilized if the armor is at least C ranked.
-The levitation effect has a two turn cooldown after wearing off.
-Buffing the damage of a jutsu can be done once per turn, with a two turn cooldown.
-Storm Mail lasts three turns, unless released early.
-Can only be taught by Leathercandle.

Now, Leda was used to battling bums. Criminals and bandits. However, this was not the case. This shinobi seemed to be a little more powerful than she had anticipate... Again, she didn't want to kill this man as it was only friendly competition to brush up on their skills. But a lesson shall be learned to day. As Leda heard the vibration and frequency of the electricity, she used her right hand, her attacking hand, to conjure up sound chakra. "I can see you're used to fighting. But you've yet to witness the Bloody Baracuda..." she said ever so fearsome. She snapped her fingers and within an instant, the opposing shinobi would hear a completely distorted and loud buzzing noise, accompanied by a genjutsu Leda had released upon her fingers snapping. This would disrupt the plan the shinobi had in motion and as Leda altered the illusion to be a nearby tree falling down on him and as the buzzing was so loud, he would not be able to tell if this tree was actively snapping and falling down on him or not. However upon the buzzing, he did hear the snapping and the tree was indeed falling... To his knowledge for now.

Description: The user charges Ototon chakra into his hands and snaps his fingers, triggering a genjutsu through the emission of high frequency sound waves. As he snaps, the sound is amplified, sounding as if it is directly by the enemy's ear. To them, it sounds as if something has just snapped in half. The user then manipulates the illusion to make it appear as if either a large branch has fallen from a tree or the ground under them has broken clean in half, causing the target to believe they are falling through the earth or have been struck with a large object, pushing them to the earth. The user has control over the illusion, being able to make it seem as if entire trees have been snapped in half, falling on the target or as if an earth structure has collapsed either above or beneath the opponent, etc. The illusion can be edited to fit the situation and even the sound can be slightly altered deepening on the object that is "snapped". Is more effective depending upon the terrain this is used in ( extremely effective in a forest, not effective in a desert ).
Leda would flip back to mid range from the shinobi. Short range was too easy... Understandable. She was preferably a close range fighter. While he was dealing with the genjutsu. She would prepare and also have a great speech ready for him in the meantime... She weaved four seals and slams her hands onto the ground and summons a multitude of paper tags heading towards the shinobi that would camouflage with the ground. However she would wait to detonate them for when the shinobi would break out of the genjutsu. Leda put her hand over her mouth and yawned with a bored demeanor. Although he could not hear her, she spoke to the shinobi. "I know you're just kidding around. Come on. Show me your true power... I accepted your fight on short notice. I expect you to try. I have a village to look after. I am the Otokage, after all..." she signed... Was he hiding something? He said he wouldn't take it easy. She knew he had some sort of hidden ability or like her, a kekkei genkai...

The user does a sequence of 4 hand seals (Tiger → Rat → Bird → Snake) or slams his hand on the ground or surface. Using his chakra, he is able to stream a multitude of paper tags through the ground and use his chakra to keep them hidden from sight. As they stream towards the target, they are undistinguishable from the ground, seamlessly merged with it. Nearing the target, they rise from the ground, "crawling" up the target. As they wrap themselves in lairs around the target, the user can choose when to detonate them, making a quicker, weaker detonation or waiting for more paper tags to pile in the target and adding more damage.

She weaved four seals and slams her hands onto the ground and summons a multitude of paper tags heading towards the shinobi that would camouflage with the ground. However she would wait to detonate them for when the shinobi would break out of the genjutsu. Leda put her hand over her mouth and yawned with a bored demeanor. Although he could not hear her, she spoke to the shinobi. "I know you're just kidding around. Come on. Show me your true power... I accepted your fight on short notice. I expect you to try. I have a village to look after. I am the Otokage, after all..." she signed... Was he hiding something? He said he wouldn't take it easy. She knew he had some sort of hidden ability or like her, a kekkei genkai...
Type: Offensive
Rank: A-Rank
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra: 30
Damage: 60
Description:
The user does a sequence of 4 hand seals (Tiger → Rat → Bird → Snake) or slams his hand on the ground or surface. Using his chakra, he is able to stream a multitude of paper tags through the ground and use his chakra to keep them hidden from sight. As they stream towards the target, they are undistinguishable from the ground, seamlessly merged with it. Nearing the target, they rise from the ground, "crawling" up the target. As they wrap themselves in lairs around the target, the user can choose when to detonate them, making a quicker, weaker detonation or waiting for more paper tags to pile in the target and adding more damage.
OOC Moxxi and I discussed her move bc I had some issues with it and we decided to proceed with the following: her attacking arm gets cuz off by the lightning jutsu entirely, before which she is able to get off the snap to activate the sound genjutsu. After that, she jumps back to mid range and doesn't use the explosive tag technique.
As his opponent jumped back to mid range following the brutal removal of her arm, Achilles began to hear a sharp buzzing so loud that shook his very eardrums. Placing his hands over his ears in a feeble attempt to muffle the sound, he was surprised to find that it did nothing to drown it out. Suddenly, he would be met with the loud sound of something cracking. Peering to his side, Achilles would see a tree that had clearly not been there an instant before, given how he and Leda had been fighting on an open field. The crack was clearly coming from the tree, which at this point he was pretty sure was the result of a genjutsu, given the sudden ringing in his ears that he was unable to muffle in conjunction with the appearance and immediate cracking of a tree. Bringing his hands together, he formed a single handseal, releasing the genjutsu. As soon as he did, his suspicions were validated, with both the ringing having come to a stop, and the tree now gone.
( Genjutsu: Kai ) - Illusion Technique: Release
Rank: C-S
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15-40
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user does one hand seal to focus and then proceeds to disturb his chakra flow by forcefully stopping it momentarily and then "spiking" his spiritual energy, unbalancing his chakra. This dispels any genjutsu set upon the user except MS Eye Techniques, Paralysis-like Genjutsu and Demonic Illusion: Toad Confrontation Chant. The effectiveness of this technique is dependent upon the skill of the user. A Jounin rank ninja can dispel Genjutsu up to C-rank. An S-class ninja can dispel Genjutsu up to B-rank. A Sannin rank ninja can dispel Genjutsu up to A-rank. A Sage rank user can dispel Genjutsu up to S-Rank. The user may use this technique through physical contact on others to dispel them from Genjutsu. The technique can only be used once per turn and the user still needs to fully follow the logic as to why he figured out it was an illusion.
"Aren't any trees around here, miss. Cool jutsu, though."
As soon as he had woven the hand seal for kai, Achilles had already begun his next technique, and imbued part of it with his storm mail armor to boost it's damage. Achilles focused lightning chakra into the air around him, creating a swirling vortex that emerged into the body and head of a giant dragon that extended forwards, arching into the sky and toward the ground where Leda stood, with the apex of the arc being 10 meters off the ground, and it aiming to land directly on top of her from above. Due to Achilles' infusion of part of his Storm Mail into it, the dragon would have +10 damage, and the armor would be reduced to B rank. Due to the nature of the dragon, as soon as it reached short range of Leda, it would begin shooting small bolts of lightning at her, following her location even if she were to move. The dragon would then continue on, and slam into her, electrocuting her, lighting her on fire, and crippling her even further.
As the dragon made it's way toward her, before reaching short range, Achilles would produce four shuriken from his pouch, and throw them at her, aiming generally at her chest.

Type: Offensive
Rank: A
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 30
Damage: 60 + 10
Description: The user forms a whirling vortex of electricity around themselves. The vortex will take on the form of a dragon’s head and will grow to then shoot forward and cover the area in front of them. Even if the attack doesn't directly connect with his foe, the lightning can jump from the vortex to hit a nearby target.
Type: Supplementary / Defensive / Offensive Rank: A Range: Short - Mid Chakra: 30 Damage: 60 to objects/people who touch it (+10 to future lightning techniques)
Description: Storm Mail is the name of a lightning technique that amplifies the user’s lightning style techniques while acting as both a defense and offense. The user weaves four hand seals, and releases a full body surge of chakra, which takes the shape of rings of lightning. These rings surround the user from ankles to the top of their head, being an inch off of their body in all cases. Alternatively, the rings can manifest themselves up to short range around the user, where they will fly around rapidly, attempting to cut into anything before going to the user’s body. In this case, the rings return to the user’s body at whatever rank they would be after clashing with any techniques. The rings have a number of advanced applications that this technique utilizes. Because they do not cover the entire body, they are generally better suited to defending against taijutsu and kenjutsu than they are against ninjutsu, however, if a jutsu is not large enough scale, the armor can defend against it due to the spacing between each ring (a good example of this would be the canon technique “Water Style: Water Dragon Whip”). If something touches the armor/rings, it shocks them for 60 damage.
Once per turn, the user can infuse part of the strength of the armor into a lightning jutsu of their own, lowering the rank of the armor by one, and increasing the damage of the jutsu by 10 by transferring the chakra. Doing so costs a move, but can occur in the same timeframe as performing the jutsu. As the rank of the armor decreases from infusing chakra from it into techniques, the damage the armor does to people that touch it decreases to match that new rank (with boosts to the armor from other techniques applying afterwards).
Once per turn, the user can levitate off the ground up to ten meters in the air by charging the rings with an electrical field identical to the one in the canon technique “Lightning Style: Lightning Blades Levitation.” While levitating through the air, the user moves at their regular running speed, which is determined by their rank. The levitation effect can be released at any time by the user, and lasts two turns, with a maximum of two usages per usage of the jutsu.
-Levitation can only occur / be utilized if the armor is at least C ranked.
-The levitation effect has a two turn cooldown after wearing off.
-Buffing the damage of a jutsu can be done once per turn, with a two turn cooldown.
-Storm Mail lasts three turns, unless released early.
-Can only be taught by Leathercandle.
Leda was EXCITED by the blood lust. Little did she know, she let her opponent have her arm. In Leda's mind, this made the fight a bit more fair. As the lad complimented her jutsu. She smiled. "Thank you. It's one of my specialities. Tell me, where do you hail from?" Leda asked curiously. Expecting an answer, what came first was the man weaving some seals and summon a vicious lightning technique that slithering across the field and then shot upwards, aiming to slam down upon Leda. As there was no time for Leda to play around, she had to think rather quickly in this event. She inhaled, and blew upwards towards the sky,, changing the property of the present clouds and also insulating the lightning dragon and disposing of it. This would continue to develop a small vortex tornado that would carry onto the field and also insulate and take care of any extra lightning coming towards her presence. This would also continue towards her opponent albeit B rank in power instead of A.
Type: Offensive

Range: Short-Mid
Chakra: 30
Damage: 60
Description: The user sends wind into the sky to darken the clouds and make the environment stormy. These clouds will create a cutting tornado that comes down as a F-5 tornado with slicing wind.
"You invited me to this battle, however it seems you have exterior motives having to do with me. If this is true, I will kill you..." Leda said sternly. Missing an arm, Leda was unable to perform seals, however again, she preferred it this way. It was more a challenge. For what was a battle, without a challenge?
Directly behind the tornado, she quickly moved her good arm in a horizontal motion, summoning a wave of water akin to a small tsunami. This would happen and travel fast. If this would hit him, it would undoubtedly break several bones inside the shinobi's body. So not only would he have to worry about the tornado, he would have to worry about the tsunami as well, making a double frontal attack.
Rank: A
Type: Offense/Deffense
Range: short-middle

Damage points: 40 (If used in conjuction with lighting - 60)
Description: The user releases his water chakra, creating a wave with height 5 meters. Then the user can decide whether he is going to use it for deffense or send it against the enemy. When send against the enemy the wave travels realy fast so it could be used almost imediatly after the previous jutsu. The damage increases if it's used in conjuction with lighting.
Note: Can only be taught by PowerOfDarkness.
Note Can only be used 2 times per battle.
Note: No water jutsu for the next turn.
These two techniques would take care of the measly shuriken he threw at Leda. She unsheathed a katana and placed the hilt in her mouth, holding it horizontally. It was time to get down to business...

After releasing the shuriken from his hands, he watched as Leda dealt with his lightning jutsu as if it were nothing, firing back with a giant tornado of her own. Not particularly impressed, Achilles began his next move. Activating the abilities of the Storm Mail which clad his body, he allowed himself to levitate off the ground six meters and flew quickly to the right, moving in an arc around the tornado and above the wave which she fired off as he began to hover.
"Where do I come from? I doubt you know the place- a small town in a big world. But anyways...you'd be smart to give up at this point, miss. You won't last without both of your arms."

After successfully avoiding the combination attack, Achilles released the jutsu, allowing himself to soar through the air and toward the ground as he entered short range due to the forward momentum accumulated. Forming a single handseal in the air, Achilles' entire body would begin to glow a blinding white hue. This would be so bright that Leda would instantly go blind from seeing it if she did not have some sort of counter. Rolling on the ground as he landed, he quickly stood and moved into a sprint, where he would behead Leda with his katana.
(Raigen Raikochu) – Lightning Illusion Flash of Lightning Pillar
Rank: S
Type: Supplementaty
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 40
Damage: N/A
Description: After performing the following handseals Ram → Horse → Snake → Tiger the user will release a massive amount of lighting chakra which he uses to create a blinding light that appears to emanate from all over the users body. The light can blind any enemy that sees it but its main ability is that, through skill and precise chakra control and timing, the user can use it as a cover to put the enemy into a genjutsu by using the light as a decoy, preventing the enemy from noticing the genjutsu was placed.
Note: Can follow with any Genjutsu the user knows up to A-Rank but needs to have mastered Genjutsu. The user will need to effectively spend two moves, performing both the Lightning Illusion and the Genjutsu; the first only serves as a cover to place the second unnoticed
Note: Can only be used once every three turns
A small town... Leda couldn't respond with the sword in her mouth, but this guy seemed alright... When asking someone a question, she expected an answer, respectfully. So she was pleased the man had cured her curiosity. Whatever town he was from, they sure bred some fighters. None the less, this shinobi seemed quite... Cocky. As he easily avoided her two advancing jutsu, he emitted a light that was bright enough to force Leda to close her eyes. However, this was entirely fun. Leda closed her eyes and laughed manically with her sword in her mouth. She could have ended this man's entire career earlier using her kekkei genkai, but he didn't seem to grasp the concept that Leda was just simply powerful and should probably be treated as such. This was child's play. Having her inner sonar active, she could hear everything around her in such precise sound and noise patterns. It was elegant. She heard the man hit the ground, and rolling ever so clearly as he also went to sprint towards Leda. Leda, still laughing, gathered chakra in her palm and flicked her wrist at the shinobi, letting out a small yet devastating lightning ninjutsu that would shred the shinobi viciously. And now being in close range, it would have been hard for the shinobi to avoid this. Shall it hit it would render the shinobi nearly incapacitated from the shocking effects and ripping power.

Description:The user channels lightning to the palm of his hand and with the flick of his wrist, unleashes a wave of lightning that can leave several wounds in the opponent's body and pierce rock. The lightning appears as a quick flash of light, similar to a blur, but ninja of high-enough rank or one who possesses a Dojutsu or sensory abilities see the attack as an arc of light.
~Must be 1 rank or below under the user to appear as a quick blur~
~Due to the fact that the jutsu can barely be seen, it can only be used twice per battle~
~Can only be thought by Rikerslade~
With the katana in her mouth, following up and assuming the man would use a taijutsu or kenjutsu technique high or perform an upper body level jutsu to finish her off, logically, she ducked after releasing the lightning technique and ended up in a crouching stance. She would aim to hit a pressure point in his right arm by striking upwards towards his bicep with her good arm, rendering the opponent unable to use it for now. In this situation, he would have to choose between getting hit by the lightning or losing his ability to perform seals, as how Leda is now... His choice. At least he wouldn't lose an entire arm due to what was supposed to be a friendly spar.

Running at Leda, her eyes still closed as the light continued to emanate from him, he was surprised to see her lift a hand in his direction. Preparing for a counterattack, Achilles was caught off guard by the speed of a blast of lightning that she released from her palm. Without given time to properly analyze and come up with the best solution, all he could do was act. Expelling lightning chakra from his body, he created four saws (each 5 inches thick) that would spin around him at high speeds counter-clockwise, defending against the wave of lightning by cutting it down as the saws spun. What's more, he angled the saws in such a way that as they rotated, they covered his right arm, as he noticed she began striking toward it. Her arm would collide with the saws as they defended against her lightning technique if she continued, destroying her only other good one.
Type: Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary Rank: A Range: Short - Mid Chakra: 30 Damage: 60 (+10 to future lightning techniques) Description: Blessing of the Thunder is a primarily defensive technique that can also be used offensively in certain situations, and has some supplementary applications. The user begins by expelling chakra from their body to create up to 4 circular saws of electricity around them, which rotate in whichever direction(s) the user so pleases. These saws can reach up to short range, and can be up to 5 inches thick. The primary purpose of these are to cut, slice, shock, and burn objects that they come into contact with. The user can release the original forms of the saws into unfocused electricity that expands outwards 360°, reaching up to mid range. Alternatively, the user can release the unfocused charge of electricity without the need for the saws prior, however this must be done with three hand seals. This unfocused electricity can paralyze non-lightning specialists, leaving them immobile for 2 turns before it wears off. The unfocused electricity gives off a charge that allows all other lightning techniques created using the same chakra as this one to have their electrons move around at much higher speeds than normal, increasing their cutting and slicing capabilities, and thus damage, for 2 turns. The increased movement speed of the electrons does not influence the speed of the technique, only the damage potential.
-The user cannot perform lightning techniques A ranked or above this turn
-This technique can be used 4 times per battle, with a turn cool-down between usages.

Still running forward, he would then convert the saws into unfocused electricity, which would send lightning bolts in every direction up to mid range away, completely paralyzing and scorching Leda to a crisp. Given her position of such close proximity to the bolts and Achilles, it would be neigh impossible to evade them all.

Leda heard the clash of techniques as the frequency further enhanced. It was impossible not to tell it was a hit on hit impact between techniques. The running didn't stop. So he continued on. Unfortunately for him, this was a battle that was already won. Leda stayed in the same position she was and vanished, letting the bolts go past her. Since he chose to continue on and they were already close range, as soon as she came back into existence and after the lightning bolts passed, she would spring up from her crouched state, tilting her head in such a way with the katana still in her mouth, slicing the shinobi's throat diagonally and across all major arteries. This would cause the shinobi to spew blood out of his throat like a stuck pig. Dead as a doorknob. After this, Leda spit out her katana and smiled. "I should have warned you, instead." After this, she dug a hole nearby with just her one arm and buried the shinobi. She left the vicinity with the shinobi's blood still all over her, this battle... Was over.

Description: Kobudo Kumite refers to the free fighting style of Hayabusa Kobudo. Hayabusa hone their fighting style through the practice of kata (forms) and bunkai (application) which utilize the dantian and Neidan. Over the years, four essential kumite styles have come out of Hayabusa Kobudo that all Hayabusa must learn; Huquan, Shequan, Longquan, and Wuquan.
Huquan (Tiger Fist)
Hu Quan is the fundamental fighting form of Hayabusa Kobudo. The form is characterized as the most direct and offensive style of fighting. Hayabusa will use their lower dantian to draw physical essence from nothingness (Wuji) into their being. The essence reinforces the user’s being increasing their physical speed, strength, and awareness allowing them to heightened feats of physical combat. This essence is visualized as barely visible distortions in the air surrounding the user and their weapons. The user is able to perform taijutsu, kenjutsu, bukijutsu and other acrobatic movements at twice their normal speed as well as react to anything as long as it is within their range of sensory perception (five senses, taijin, etc). Alternatively, the user can move linearly three times their speed (chunin and above), however this level of movement cannot be maintained for longer than a single turn. As for their power, Hayabusa gain +20 to their taijutsu and weapon based techniques (swords, staffs, axes, etc) while using Huquan. The essence that surrounds the user and their weapons capable of erasing physical matter (Earth, Steel, etc) at the point of contact allowing the user's physical attacks to cut through anything destructible. The user can use Huquan fighting in successive turns depending on their rank which reflects their overall physical condition. Genin and Chunin can only use Huquan for a single turn. Jounin and Head Ninja can maintain it for 2 successive turns. Dragon Ninja are able to maintain it for 3 turns at a time and Masters 4 turns. The drawback to Huquan is that, the user can only use lower dantian based techniques and non-elemental techniques while they are using this form. If used for more than two successive turns, the user experiences a cooldown of one turn plus the number of turns over 2 they utilize this style. For those who are limited to two turns and below, they require a single turn cool down before re-use. Haquan can be used twice for genin - jounin, thrice for Head and Dragon Ninja, and four times for master ninja.
Shequan (Snake Fist)
She Quan is the second form of Hayabusa Kobudo and is characterized as being the most deceptive of the fighting forms. This form makes use of the Hayabusa's passive ability to control their own existence while they are engaging in physical combat with opponents. As the user attacks, they may passively expend 30 chakra to erase themselves from the opponent's five basic senses by manipulating all three dantian. What this means is that the opponent will not be able to perceive the attacks until the last possible moment when the user strikes, resulting in every physical attack while under the influence of Shequan to result in a critical hit. The user can use Shequan fighting in successive turns depending on their rank which reflects their overall physical condition. Genin and Chunin can only use Shequan for a single turn. Jounin and Head Ninja can maintain it for 2 successive turns. Dragon Ninja are able to maintain it for 3 turns at a time and Masters 4 turns. The drawback to Shequan is that, the user can only use lower, upper and middle dantian based techniques and non-elemental techniques while they are using this form. If used for more than two successive turns, the user experiences a cooldown of one turn plus the number of turns over 2 they utilize this style. For those who are limited to two turns and below, they require a single turn cool down before re-use. Shequan can be used twice for genin - jounin, thrice for Head and Dragon Ninja, and four times for master ninja.
Longquan (Dragon Fist)
Longquan is the third form of Hayabusa Kubodo. It is classified as the most ranged of the fighting forms and utilizes the Hayabusa's ability to erase objects from existence. This form starts with the user passively embedding their Dragon chakra from the lower and middle dantian into their ranged attacks such as kunai or shuriken. As the user throws the objects the Dragon Chakra activates when they are at least in a 2m range of foreign chakra sources. Instantaneously, the Dragon chakra activates and creates a short-range 2m wide distortion similar to Kamui. These distortions are capable of erasing objects up to A-rank and may be passively activated by the user if necessary to spawn the distortion at their discretion. Objects erased by this method are capable of being returned by utilizing Taji Dao using the respective dantian. The user can use Longquan fighting in successive turns depending on their rank which reflects their overall physical condition; attaching Wuji to their ranged attacks to erase other objects can be executed once per turn that the user is able to keep the form active. Genin and Chunin can only use Longquan for a single turn. Jounin and Head Ninja can maintain it for 2 successive turns. Dragon Ninja are able to maintain it for 3 turns at a time and Masters 4 turns. The drawback to Longquan is that, the user can only use lower and middle dantian based techniques and non-elemental techniques while they are using this form. If used for more than two successive turns, the user experiences a cooldown of one turn plus the number of turns over 2 they utilize this style.

Description: The user slashes forwards in front of them with their sword to strike the enemy target.
Leda heard the clash of techniques as the frequency further enhanced. It was impossible not to tell it was a hit on hit impact between techniques. The running didn't stop. So he continued on. Unfortunately for him, this was a battle that was already won. Leda stayed in the same position she was and vanished, letting the bolts go past her. Since he chose to continue on and they were already close range, as soon as she came back into existence and after the lightning bolts passed, she would spring up from her crouched state, tilting her head in such a way with the katana still in her mouth, slicing the shinobi's throat diagonally and across all major arteries. This would cause the shinobi to spew blood out of his throat like a stuck pig. Dead as a doorknob. After this, Leda spit out her katana and smiled. "I should have warned you, instead." After this, she dug a hole nearby with just her one arm and buried the shinobi. She left the vicinity with the shinobi's blood still all over her, this battle... Was over.

Alright I was asked to decide the final victor of this battle in a similar format as you would a tournament fight or whatever. With that in mind my decision isn't an easy one for a couple of reasons, you guys are pretty close in overall move quality being one of the issues, then there is the slightly dated RPing. (This being an official battle perma damage isn't on so you wouldn't have an arm cut off, just damaged, it would also be affected by the health drawbacks system.)
However this aside, I think Leathercandle takes the win due to landing a clean hit, though I should mention the situation presented that lightning technique wouldn't have occured, Moxxi choosing to use Taijutsu from such close range would prevent you having time to form a handseal and mold chakra in my opinion, Taijutsu especially simple stuff is faster than ninjutsu especially ninjutsu that requires handseals. Moxxi would've slapped leather and the freeform damage would've prevented storm mail occuring in that turn, since a mistake like that would cancel the rest of the move generally speaking.
With that in mind I still think Leather is the winner, but had the issue with the counter been brought up the fight may have went a different way. Either way though it was a nice read I hope both of you continue fighting and getting back in to the swing of things!

Thanks for the check! And yeah you're right, Moxxi and I discussed how we both messed up there in my counter and her response, but we continued regardless.
