The Big Beginning (Open To All - No Kill)

[o-o mez the illusion clones follow your actions...they cant move on thier own.]

Hikarishi was watching as the one boy he didnt know dupmed water over his head then looked around and saw where he was 'Shit.' he thought as he made the hand seal for Subsitution jutsu just in time. He would appear behind the boy in another tree as a limb would take his place He would would watch and see what the boy did preferring defense over offense. "My name is Hikarishi Uchiha, Whats yours?" he asked looking at him ready to copy any hand seals the boy might make.

He thought damn, his opponent had vanished. He heard a voice from behind, a brief deep voice as the man who had vanished from before his eyes had reappeared near his rear, rather simplistically the man introduce himself and questioned Mugen, “My name is Hikarishi Uchiha, Whats yours?”. Mugen fell forward towards a Kunai on the ground at which point his middle finger of his right hand slipped through the loop hole allowing him easy access to the weaponry whilst he hands slapped together, concealed next to his chest in order to successfully substitute Mugens body with a random log that laid two to three branches from Hikarishi!

His intentions weren't to harm any of the individuals taking part in the mass spar but to simple have some fun whilst sparing along side the others. In a matter of seconds a puff of smoke would form around his previous locations whilst his right leg would spring him off from one tree branch to the other until he would eventually grip tightly of the Kunai and aimed to stop it around the mans neck in order to slightly intimidate him.

Mugen wasn't the best of fighters through close combat, similarly he wasn't good at other fighting styles other then Ninjutsu which would make it quite a challenge for Mugen though he was limited to the amount of jutsus he had the ability to use, but he wasn't about to let that get in the way of his success.

(OOC - Sorry this is kind of short, I didn't have Microsoft word anymore so my posts are quite limited to Open Office)

[As PM'd to Mez, the fireball jutsu was actually a fluke so I'll pretend that she's hallucinating]

His false move had proven to be efficient as the girl had quickly jumped away from him. Excellent! Now, now was the time that Hisao was going to shine

Jumping backwards initially in order to avoid shuriken and kunai, he acknowledged two clones being made by the girl. He could tell by the mirror image they were making that chances were that they were illusions. Interesting. He hadn't seen that happen before. It was quite a good idea however, and he planned to use that in his next attack.

Alas, Hisao would have waited until the very last second, just before the smoke blew, before he'd use kawarimi no jutsu, switching places with his clone that was hiding in the trees. Doing this seamlessly, the apparition would happen exactly as the smoke from the girl's clones would have occurred.

Now, with his body crouching on the tree as he used the tree walking jutsu, the chakra channeled in his feet, he'd push off from the tree as he dived at the girl from above, aiming to tackle her to the ground with a move very much like a diving spear.

However, that was not the only thing; the clone of Hisao which had been rather inactive and just standing performed the bunshin jutsu, allowing two illusion versions of itself align with it as they charged at the girl with a mighty roar. This was the distraction of course for the main attack.

The clone that was switched with Hisao would roughly take the shot to the gut, the drill piercing straight through it, a few seconds passing before the body would go out in a poof of smoke, hopefully also causing as enough of a distraction so that Hisao could take the girl down.

Mezurashii would smile as her Air Drill struck home, but her smile turned into a frown when she saw him puff into smoke. She heard the pop of smoke behind her and turned to see multiple Hisao's running at her, turning her head sharply she also saw another Hisao flying towards her at high speeds.

'Well bugger' she thought dismally, she allowed the Hisao that was attacking from the trees tackle her, momentarily taking by surprise when he managed to wind her. They tumbled and thus whatever the clones were planning were at least delayed, easily pushing the boy she straddled his chest and placed a kunai to his throat.

Granted she was taking a serious risk here, this could just be another clone for all she knew, but it was obvious this boy had something to prove by beating her.

"Sorry puppy, but you're not quiet there yet" she said as she placed the blade more securely against his throat, not enough to cut as long as he stayed still.

With his sharigan eyes he saw the boy fall, moving away from his first and giving Hikarishi a chance to gauge his speed, towards the ground and the chakra inside him start to build, for what he did not know. 'whats he doing?' he thought as a white puff of smoke appeared in his place. Hikarishi would glance his eyes to both the left and right, and him being notably faster then the boy, would see the Kunai appear to the right side of his neck just as he would duck and sweep his leg in a circle, turning with in a 360 degree motion as to knock the boy off his balance. The afore mentioned being but a blur to the boy if the strike hit then he would grab out at the boys arm to keep him from falling the seven feet to the ground with the kunai in his hand. "You still have not told me your name." He said as he pulled him back to his feet, if the red headed man tried nothing more he would continue saying "How about we continue down there?" as he pointed at the ground releasing the tree climbing jutsu and going to the under side of the tree and dropping into a flip as he landed his hands in his pocket as he waited for his opponent.

[stating that my speed is 4X that of yours and since you only stated aiming to get the kunai in front of my neck i picked the side Vlad and its cool about the open office thing lol]

It happened all so fast that it almost dazed Mugen. His opponents crimson red eyes were distinctive people, he could easily identify them! For almost a moment as Hikarashi knocked Mugen off balance, he felt envy rushed through his opaque heart. He held the kunai tightly as gravity began to play its role in life, his decent was imminent yet the fellow Uchiha promptly grabbed hold of Mugens arm to stop him from falling the full seven feet unbalanced! He was rather greatful yet he kept his eyes on the swift people, flawless movements; this guy truly portrayed the Uchiha stereotype! As he grabbed Mugen shortly arm he began to revert back in to the previous questions regarding Mugens name and thus he said it! "The names Mugen!" He sounded rather brief and to the point, it would come across as cold in the situation but it seemed that his personality diverged from those of the Uchiha Clan, maybe Mugens mother was like him?

Meanwhile as he replied, he managed to partially change the angle of the kunai in order to stab the boys arm as he held him but he was almost an instant too late and began descending! As he descended, he arched his back to allow his left, free hand to slap firmly against the ground and let him spring back into motion and onto his feet! The instant he set his eyes back on the Uchiha he began to run towards him, his breathing get rate had increased and his pupils hid dilated a little, it seemed that fatigue was building through both his bones and muscles. Never the less, Mugen wasn't the type to give up, even if this was a spare and thus as he closed the distance between him and Hikarashi, he threw the Kunai at his head! The moment his hands were freed, they shot into several hand seals in order to off load a torrent of fire from his mouth aimed at the boys torso! This fire was around seven feet high and wide thus the instant he finished his lungs began dragging every last oxygen molecule back into his body.

With disregard to whether the attack hit or not he dropped back onto the ground and looked up at the common, every day sky. His stamina was drained, but he wondered whether or not any of this attacks made contact... After all the reason behind the large attack was to throw the opponent on guard and prompt him to guard against the Kunai whilst having little to no time to evade the fire forcing a head on defence or some form of counter.

(Stamina gonne by my calculation.. XD)

What was this that Hisao was feeling? Fear? The girl was now on top of him and clearly in the vantage point.. Closing his eyes, he feeling a pang of depression strike through his body. Did he just lose the fight again? He felt a shift in his eyes, but fortunately his eyelids covered his now evolved eyes. He was on guard although his body did not look like it, because one wrong move could end up with him dying. He was going to win. He was going to win through tactics. The clone that had been coming from behind Mez now stood directly behind her, holding a kunai with the tip pressed gently into the back of her neck, drawing a little blood if it was to happen. The clone would speak, "Sorry, Fox. You've got the looks and the skills, but mine are just better." All the while as he was pinned down, Hisao acting quite realistically like a clone would when not being used.

Mezurashii stiffened when she felt the prick of a kunai at the back of her neck, turning slowly she saw another Hisao.

'Did I get it wrong? Is that the real Hisao? Damn' she thought, but she wasn't frustrated or annoyed or depressed. Smiling gently she slowly removed the kunai from his throat, it didn't matter if he was the clone or not, these were solid clones so they could kill either way.

"Well done, puppy" she said, slowly standing up and offering a hand for him. "Your the winner today" she added, looking around she saw a bunch of battles still in progress. Shrugging to herself she turned back to the young Uchiha.

"How about ramen? I'm hungry, and I'll pay since you won" Mezurashii offered, walking towards the grounds exit. She doesn't mind if he comes along or not, she just wants a bite to eat.

The boy had said his name was Mugen right before they descended to the ground at which point he used his hand to spring forward after which he threw a kunai at his head, Hikarishi would simply throw one of his own kunai at it and deflect both of them to the ground. Mugen began to form seals as the Kunai was thrown using his sharigan to copy the hand signs he would spit the flames back at the boy causing them to just fight each other until both of the flames had died down to nothing.

"Well it seems like your out of breath Mugen." He said after the boy had laid down to take a break. With nothing else to do Hikarishi would sit down and relax.

Mugen dropped back as he felt the heat few feet from hid die down. He raised his head to catch sight of Hikarashi, slowly approaching; it was clear his intent wasn't deadly and it also seemed that the other Uchiha was done with his fight, great. He looked at the opponent who gracefully matched his every move and countered rather effectively, thus he simply said "Your not too bad..." It was rare to see him be nice especially due to his sinister, uncanny nature but even still the fatigue had overwhelmed him. He smirked as he looked up at the sky and began to slowly stand up. "I would invite you to ramen, but I only graduated the academy a few days back thus have no money!" he laughed a little as he grinder his hands against the dusty ground in order to push him self up by the time he approached his torso. With that a little gust of dust would fly from around him and he would begin to walk to his bag. Upon arrival he would raise it off the ground and zip it up prior to slipping it safely over his shoulders and looking at everyone. The Uchiha crest was rather large in proportion to the bag. He looked around and with out further adu he began to walk towards the exit, "Ja-Na" said the red haired Uchiha as his feet clapped against the dry floor of the training ground until he past the exit!
