Training and sparring [private]

Dante decided after waking up one morning he wanted to train some. However, he knew because it was a Friday morning there would be tons of ninja over at the training pits. He wanted to go somewhere.. different. So, he grabbed all his supplies [inlcuding all equipment on char sheet] and headed out of the village. He planned to train with his weapons and jutsu, and it'd be a good opportunity to also pick up a spar. Dante continued walking along the path until he eventually met the country borders. This area was crawling with ninja, and he was bound to find someone to train with here. Dante unpacked his lunch, and found a good area to sit down on a large, stone floored rocky area. He undid his lunch bag and began eating his apple, before training.

[waiting for Haku and Skorn]
Words: 138

Skorn was heading out to new and unexplored hunting ground today. He was heading to the country borders. He had heard that this was a delightful and magical place, fall of fairies and rainbows and flowers! Oh how he could not wait to go there and destroy it all.  He is clad in his usual attire: his black cloak with the white pentagrams, and the paper bag with the eyeholes cut out, serving as a makeshift mask. There are delicate corners cut into these eyeholes however, allowing Skorn to maintain perfect peripheral vision. The way that Skorn wears his button-up cloak is somewhat different than what many people might consider conventional; it is buttoned all the way up to the collar, except for a single button in the middle, and he does not wear his arms through his sleeves, rather, he keeps them tucked into the cloak directly behind the single undone button. The inside of the cloak is made of fine crimson silk, with two large pockets at the breast on the left and right. Inside the left pocket, adjacent to where his dominant hand lays perched, 5 kunai and 1 explosive tag are tucked. Inside of his left breast pocket is room for an adolescent calf and foot, drained of blood so he does not stain his cloak. This is lunch. Unusually, today, Skorn is not dressed beneath his cloak, he is completely naked. He likes to feel the warm summer breeze caress his smooth naked body Setting out from the village, his tiger, Sin, follows closely behind him, the bloody torso of what was once an old man clenched between his jaws. Venturing through the borders, Skorn is not impressed by what he sees. There are no unicorns and fairies to slaughter! What a disappointment. Perhaps he would have to settle for more people. It is nearing noon time at this point, and the sun begins to rise into the middle of the sky. Shadows are extremely short at this time, and Skorn’s does not even extend a full meter in front of him as he walks; this is because the sun is right above his head. Sin had finished his meager meal a few moments earlier, and he leaves a trail of human ribs and vertebrae behind him as he walks. This didn’t really affect Skorn though, he was not worried about being tracked. His legs beginning to tire, Skorn leaps atop Sin’s back as the tiger carries him deeper into the depths of the borders. The section that they are beginning to enter is filled with rocky ledges and small stones with jagged edges; it is a barren and ugly landscape. The craggy cliffs of the area blot out all the shadows of individuals with their own massive presence, the entire area that would soon become the battlefield is engulfed in their own large shadows. One such boy sits in these shadows, as Skorn and Sin come up upon his rear. Although they cannot see, he is eating a bright red apple, crunching loudly. “Hey you! Say ‘I suck fat ones’ or you die right here! Got it!” Skorn waits for the boy known as Dante to turn around and process his words. It was a favorite hobby of his, humiliating his victims before he decimated them. He was still contemplating whether or not to kill this boy. 

((Lmao sorry, I know I said I was going for 2k but I couldn’t bring myself to do it xD))

Dante had his naminaka equipped on his back and all his supplies still with him. While Dante was sitting, eating his apple, he glanced behind him from hearing footsteps and saw a goofy looking figure riding a tiger looking thing towards his area. The man was dressed in a strange black cloak covered in pentagrams, and appeared no not be wearing any clothes under his cloak. The mere moment Dante glanced over at the man, he promptly thought to himself
"What the actual fuck is that?"
Dante calmly stood up, and walked towards the tiger and man. Once Dante was about 30 meters away, all of a sudden, he noticed
 "What the hell did you just say? Hell no I'm not saying that, werido." said Dante with an angry tone.
Dante was about 30 meters away from the two things, with nothing around him. Dante rose his voice so he could hear:

"Are you here to train or spar with me? Or kill me?" said Dante waiting for a reply from the strange man, who smelled like ass.

((OOC: Lol you wouldn't be able to tell that I was naked beneath my cloak but whatever.))

As the boy begins to turn around, Skorn rapidly grabs the explosive tag with his right hand under the cover of his cloak. He quickly and tightly wraps it around one of his kunai, in anticipation of attack. Though, he will not use this new explosive kunai unless completely necessary. Due to how loosely his cloak hung over his naked body, it would be impossible to see any movement beneath its cover. The cloak also hung down to the boy’s shins, making it impossible for the other kid to know what Skorn was wearing beneath it. There was a terrible stench in the air as the wind blew from the south to the north, Dante being in the south and Skorn being in the north. Since Skorn was upwind of Dante, there was no possible way that Dante could smell him. If he did, he would smell Skorn’s magnificently manly scent of manliness. As for Dante, he was the source of the smell; he smelled like absolute shit as the warm wind carried the stink off his body and towards Skorn. He had probably forgotten to wipe his ass. How disgusting and uncivilized. As Dante is turned and fully facing Skorn, the explosive tag is already wrapped around the staff of one of Skorn’s kunai. The explosion that could be generated by this simple fuinjutsu tag was quite powerful, yet still not enough to destroy Skorn’s kunai. Upon the end of Dante’s sentence refusing to say that he sucks fat ones, Skorn is already upon him. He had begun his movement after Dante’s question demanding to know what the hell Skorn just said, and by the time that the word weirdo is escaping the kid’s mouth, Skorn is directly behind him. Due to Skorn’s immense speed compared to Dante’s pathetic speed, Skorn appears to be little more than the faintest of blurs as he sprints from his tiger to a point an arm’s reach from Dante’s back. As he is moving, his hands break through the loosened buttons, utilizing the hole created from the one that is already undone. Since they were snap buttons, the cloak flies off his back and backwards in the wind towards Sin, who catches it gently in his mouth, careful not to damage it. The cloak is discarded directly as Skorn begins his movement. Yet, as Skorn removes his only article of clothing, he yanks out 4 kunai, holding them between the fingers of his right hand, while he holds a single lone kunai in his left hand. Clutched in between the pinky and ring finger of his right hand is the kunai with the explosive tag wrapped around its shaft. Thus, by the time Skorn is at his location behind Dante, he is naked, save for the paper bag that lies over his head, and he is holding these 5 simple weapons. Dante will have had an extremely hard time tracking Skorn’s speed, only seeing faint lines as he whizzed over the ground. Since Dante will have had such a hard time even tracing this speed, he will certainly not be able to react to it; yet, Skorn is not intent on attacking at this moment. Once behind Dante, Skorn raises his left hand with the kunai behind the boy’s neck, so that the point is simply a fraction of a millimeter away from touching the skin of his neck. The boy will not yet have seen Skorn’s nakedness, so if he turns around he will be quite surprised. Skorn lets everything hang loose, and reveals the entirety of his adequately muscular body. He is averaged sized in the part that is being thought about the most as the prior sentence is read. Dante’s question of the nature of this encounter is uttered while Skorn takes up this position. But golly golly gosh, his stench is overpowering. Skorn almost wants to gag; he is nearly positive that the boy forgot to wipe the last time he relieved his bowels. Skorn has quite a simple response to the teen’s question: “I dunno, are you gonna say ‘I suck fat ones’? I recommend that you do, but I’m not one to slaughter random shitty-smelling kids when I don’t have a motive. It’s not like you look too appetizing, HAHAHAHA!” Yeah, that was true, Skorn was certainly not going to eat this disgusting little mongrel. He had better taste than this, and he only ate the cleanest and most kosher of people. Maybe Sin could eat him though if worse came to worst; he did not have very high standards when it came to his food. But no, even if the kid did not capitulate and utter the silly little phrase, Skorn was not of the mind to kill him. He was actually feeling quite dandy today! He might as well just train with the kid, to sum up his skill: “But meh, I’m always down to train, if you beat me in a spar, how about this: you don’t have to say ‘I suck fat ones’. Sound good? Tehehehehe! This would be an interesting encounter indeed, seeing that the stakes were quite high. No dignified man wanted to be caught saying that he sucked fat ones. If Skorn was in this situation, he would be fighting as if he was going to die if he lost. He certainly hoped the consequences of losing this match pushed Dante to fight just as hard. He had noticed one thing about the boy when he had blurred around him with his immense speed: he did not recognize his forehead protector. The only village symbols that Skorn might be able to recognize were Sunagakure, Konohagakure, and possibly Kumogakure depending on if he was having a good day or a bad one. The other village symbols were foreign to him. As for himself, he did not wear a single marker that identified his home village, or his homeland of old, so for all this kid new, Skorn could be from outer space. Hell, he might be, but his more likely place of origin was probably Hell, which also happened to be his future destination of eternal slumber.

((1,039/1,000 words towards using Sin in combat. I can use my familiar in combat now.))

[OOC: It's should be noted Dante wears his Funkagakure headband around his neck, metal facing the front. Like a necklace sorta. Also, Haku will not be joining this post from my understanding].

Dante watched as the man stared back at him, as Dante was waiting for a simple response. Dante, at the moment, had his hands retracted from his sleeve areas of his robe and had his hands in his robe [like you mentioned.] Out of nowhere, even though Dante was a ways away from Skorn, there was a wiz of blurred movement. Next thing he knows, Skorn is literally gone. Dante begins looking from side to side, then all of a sudden he feels heat. He looks down thinking he pissed himself. He saw a kunai up to his neck! Dante froze in fear and shock. He then heard Skorn, from directly behind him, say:
“I dunno, are you gonna say ‘I suck fat ones’? I recommend that you do, but I’m not one to slaughter random shitty-smelling kids when I don’t have a motive.”
This, deep down, greatly offended Dante and made his confidence drop significantly. But no matter, the real harm in the situation was the fact that Dante was literally being held at a knife blade, and he had no choice but to concede since there was no realistic way to get out of the situation. Dante blinked a few times, not knowing what was going on behind him. Dante decided to finally play along with Skorn, and besides, he did want some training.
"Fine. How about this. If I win the spar, you give me 500 ryo. If I lose the spar, I will take you and your tiger out to eat at the Drunken Kage Bar and tell you I..uh... suck fat ones." said Dante with a reassuring, friendly tone.
"I'll start the spar off. No funny business."
At the point when Dante said the word 'I'll,' he made a hand seal under his cloak, being sure not to move his arms at all. There was truly no way Skorn could detect this, considering he was so focused on waiting for my legs or arms to move. This single hand seal would begin to make Skorn, immediately, and if performed and landed correctly, to feel as if he was immobile and helpless. Skorn would then be experiencing some rather nasty mental images. On top of that, Dante was pretty convinced if he was experiencing the mental images Dante thought that Skorn wouldn't be able to really talk on will, at least not yet, since he doesn't know the jutsu he is being controlled with. Unfortunately, if the technique was successful, Skorn could not move. It probably didn't help him either that he was right next to Dante, strengthening the technique immensely. Once Dante was convinced the technique had set in (a period of about 1 and a half seconds after he made the hand seal), he switched the hold to wear his left [non dominant] arm was still inside the cloak holding the jutsu and his right arm was actually in the cloak sleeve. Because Dante made the hand seals peculiarly hidden, the first movement that Skorn would most likely be able to notice would be Dante putting his arm back in his sleeve. The only thing he did after this was grab a kunai knife off his waist area, and simply hold it in his hand. Dante would then take it and stab backwards towards Skorn's thigh area. The only thing, however, is that Dante was not truly going to hit his thigh. He wanted to see if the genjutsu was successful, and if Skorn could react to his attack movement. If he could, somehow, some way, then the genjutsu didn't land properly. If he couldn't it would reassure that Skorn is under Dante's grasp. This would probably be the first attack Skorn would detect coming from Dante, and try to react to.

((OOC: Lol I'm behind you dude, so you wouldn't be able to see my kunai unless you turned around, which you never did, therefore you never really saw it. And just pointing out, a kunai can kill me man xD))

As soon as the boy states that he will award Skorn 500 ryo for winning the fight, the deal is sealed. Dante need not say more to entice Skorn; he loves money. Yet, this is not what Dante had said, that's what makes it confusing. In his eagerness and giddiness, Skorn had misheard the boy; he thought Dante had stated that HE would give SKORN 500 ryo if SKORN won. Silly little mistake. The second that he is done uttering the word ryo, Skorn begins his attack. In his experience, shinobi like to play dirty, and would aim attacks the second they saw that their opponent was vulnerable. Yet, Skorn would not give Dante the chance to do this, he would beat him to it. After he is done with this simple exclamation, before he even finishes his sentence or begins to form a hand seal at all, Skorn tosses the single kunai that he has in his left hand high up in the air, and reaches out to grab the back of Dante’s cloak, noticing that his arms are hidden much like Skorn’s were just moments earlier. This was a potential threat, as the boy could be preparing attacks under this cover and Skorn would never have the chance to know. As Skorn’s right hand reaches out, his left leg comes to kick Dante in the center of his back. As his foot comes up to hit Dante, a simple command is yelled to Sin: "LUNCH!!!. Sin knows exactly what this means, and as this action and all of the actions to take place afterwards occur, Sin will walk the 30 meters towards Dante. All of these actions are performed with Skorn’s immense speed, taking place before the boy even has the chance to complete the second part of his sentence, and well before he ever forms his hand seal to prepare his genjutsu. Even if Dante were to be able to see Skorn as he does this, which he can’t seeing that Skorn is directly behind him, Skorn would be nothing but a faint blur to the boy’s unskilled eyes. If all goes according to plan, Skorn’s foot will connect with the center of Dante’s back well before the boy has time to even do anything, and only a millisecond after Skorn grabs on to the back of his cloak. Skorn will hold the cloak in place while his foot drives Dante forwards, sending him through the front of his cloak and popping all of the buttons off. Skorn will then be holding the cloak in his hand as Dante’s arms are revealed, yet he still will not have formed any hand seals. At this time, the kunai that had previously been tossed no more than 2 or so meters into the air will be arcing back down, and Skorn, using his superior coordination, will catch the shaft of the knife in between his teeth. Now, Skorn is moderately weaker than Dante, and thus his full force kick will probably only cause slight bruising, yet it will certainly accomplish its main purpose of sending the boy stumbling forwards a meter or so if it is to land. Since the kick will place the boy’s center of balance slightly forwards, he will be compelled to stutter in this direction; it will be impossible for him to move in any other direction without falling to the ground. Taking advantage of the fact that the boy will not be able to dodge without taking an epic spill, Skorn’s hard and bony right elbow will hook upwards to connect with the back of the boy’s skull, yet this is not the main attack. Since Dante will be unable to turn around while in this stumbling position, he will not be able to see Skorn, who is still located directly behind his back. As his elbow hooks upwards for the strike, Skorn will twitch his head backwards slightly while looking Sin directly in the eye; he knows what to do. By the time this attack takes place, Sin will already be less than a meter in front of Dante, having begun to move much earlier. If Skorn’s elbow strike hits, which it is highly improbable for it not to seeing that Dante will be unable to dodge if all strikes prior to this connect, Dante’s head will be forced to be looking at the ground, his neck snapping forwards. He will also continue on his stumble. Taking advantage of the fact that Dante will be unable to see him, his head being faced towards the ground, Sin will attempt to powerfully swat the boy in the temple with a massive paw. While Sin winds up for the strike, Skorn’s left leg will aim to hook underneath Dante’s stumbling legs, at his ankles, sweeping the already off balance boy to the ground. If this is to succeed, by the time he falls, Sin's paw will be upon him. If this action does occur as planned and Dante is lying face first on the stone floor, having taken quite a bit of force form the fall, Sin’s powerful right paw will arc down to catch the boy in the temple, knocking him unconscious if the strike is to hit. If all actions occur as planned, Skorn will have:

-Stolen Dante’s cloak and any items within it.
-Kicked the boy in the back so that he is stumbling forwards.
-Struck him in the back of the head so that his neck is snapped forwards and he is looking towards the ground.
-Swept Dante’s legs from underneath him so that he has face-planted on the ground
-Sin will have struck him in the temple, rendering him unconscious.

The kunai that Skorn was holding behind Dante’s neck will also now be between his teeth, while the others are all still in their aforementioned location. Due to the immense speed with which these actions occurred, and the fact that Dante would not have been able to visually trace any of them, or even see them in any way seeing that they all occurred while Skorn was behind them, they will all prove pretty much impossible to dodge. Seeing that Dante will not even have had time to see them, it would be impossible for his brain to register the actions occurring and for him to prepare any form of jutsu or reaction in time to save himself from these strikes. They all will also have happened before he even had the time to finish his sentence and perform the hand seal for the genjutsu that he was planning on attempting. Skorn will now be excited, seeing the unconscious Dante on the ground; yet, he will not kill the boy. He is in a particularly good mood today, but this is not the only reason why he will choose to spare his life. He knows nothing about the village whose symbol Dante bears, and he does not know what the consequences may be for killing one of their shinobi if they are ever to find out. Also, Skorn would have to face some sort of international charge, and these were all risks that he was not willing to take. He had only ever killed anybody within the gates of his own village, and nobody had ever found out about that. Even if they were too, they were pussies, and the village was to weak to discipline him for it. This much could not be said about Funkagakure. No, he would let Dante live, staring at him on the ground until he comes to.

Dante was speaking his part about the spar when at the words, "500 ryo," Dante all of a sudden felt a weak pain in the back, and then heard Skorn yell loudly,
"Lunch!"
 and felt a series of small blows. These blows were enough to knock Dante around a bit, and get him off his naturally superb balance. After a few other minor hits, the next thing he knows, Dante his being swept under the ankles and falling face first at the ground. He knew Skorn's speed was superb however, the speed of gravity was not as fast. Meaning, when Dante was falling face first towards the ground, he simply used one hand seal on his left hand. This hand seal was the activation of a slightly weaker but still usable technique that would be strengthened considerably because Dante was still right next to Skorn. Sin the Tiger was winding up for his strike on Dante's head when he was in the air, meaning Dante would take a rough it to the mind at the point his head hit the ground, so Dante would have to try to tough out the hit on his head. However, the hit on Dante's head from the tiger's paw rendered him unconscious. Dante layed there in a daze, not knowing what was going on around him. [Note: Dante's cloak only contains kunai and shuriken, i forgot how many I'm carrying it's on my character sheet.]

Skorn is satisfied with his actions as all of his strikes hit home on Dante, culminating with Sin’s final blow; the fight is over. Yet, the kid is unconscious, how is Skorn going to collect his prize; his money? Skorn frowns, he should have thought of this earlier. He really did want his money, but the kid was out cold from the point blank hit, he had no idea what to do. Of course he was not going to kill this kid, for the reasons stated previously, but it couldn’t be a big deal to loot him, right? I mean, he would have no evidence of robbery, and it wasn’t like the officials in his village would go out of their way to track down some foreign petty thief. Well, this was one of the advantages of winning a free for all fight: to the winner goes the spoils. He was sure that Dante would have done the same if, by some miracle, he had been the victor of this small battle. Skorn walks up to the sleeping, defenseless boy and loots his body of everything it’s worth. Already in possession of the boy’s cloak, Skorn proceeds to take all of his weapons, and his money. There is quite some value in what he finds. Yet, for Skorn, looting the body is not enough; he knows that he cannot kill this kid, but he still wants to leave some sort of indelible mark of their encounter. This way, Dante would always remember Skorn as the one who had kicked his ass and humiliated him, perhaps he might even be fueled with enough revenge to come after Skorn in the future. This would be quite interesting. Now, the blow from the tiger had not only hit the most vulnerable part of Dante’s skull, but it had also bashed his head into the stone ground below with great force. In doing this, Dante had taken much trauma to his cranium, and his brain had also forcefully bounced into his skull. His brain would now have major bruising, causing a moderately severe concussion. This would leave Dante unconscious for a few hours or so, and he would experience symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, and confusion for a few weeks or so. In short, there was absolutely no chance of the kid rising up to attack him and defend himself. As such, Skorn would go over to the boy and strip his body of all its clothes. This would cause quite a bit of humiliation for the boy, as when he finally came to he would have to walk all the way back to his village naked. This looting and stripping of clothing served to add insult to injury; one of Skorn’s favorite tactics. Oh, but Skorn was not done yet. Looking at the naked body of Dante, Skorn would tuck all the weapons that he had stolen into the pockets of his cloak, save for the Naginata that he had taken off of the boy’s back, which he would place between Sin’s teeth. Yet Skorn would keep one kunai in his left hand and kneel down beside Dante’s bare chest. Taking this one single kunai, Skorn would attempt to draw a pentagram covering the boy’s entire chest; this would brand him. Due to the severity of the boy’s head wound, his brain would still be sleeping, unable to feel much of the pain; it would be as if he was sedated. This was the reason that patients were knocked out before surgeries. There is next to no chance of Dante waking up and thwarting Skorn’s attempt, yet stranger things have happened. Skorn then reaches up and into the pocket of his cloak, remembering something. He always kept a small water bottle within these pockets; seeing that he lived in the desert, it was always wise to be in possession of one of these. Taking the small water bottle out, he pours it over the wound that he will have created on Dante if his actions are to have succeeded. He will then stand up, grinning and admiring his handiwork. This brand would not just serve as a means of humiliation, and something that would put Dante in even more pain when he woke up, but it would mark him as something that many people feared. This pentagram could be interpreted two ways: as a mark of Satanism, or as a mark of anarchy. Both were demons despised by society, and Skorn fell into the latter category. He wanted to turn Dante against the system, to create a disciple that would fight against the corrupt ways of establishment and become another soldier of anarchy; another fighter for the great cause. Putting on his cloak, Skorn will slip all remaining items into its pockets, yet he will strap the naginata to his back, he will also place Dante’s ryo in the pocket where he kept his own. Buttoning up his cloak, Skorn will also give Dante’s clothes to Sin to hold in his mouth for the journey. Something was wrong though, Sin had a rather maniacal look on his face. Skorn hoped dearly that he would not go against his wishes and kill the boy on the ground; if he did this, both of them would be utterly screwed. Yet, the look on Sin’s face is not one of hunger, it is a devious look that shows he has more sinister plans in mind. He apparently wants to humiliate Dante in his own way. Crouching over the boy’s face, Sin relieves his bowls and aims to land a massive, steaming, tiger dump on the boy’s face. The immense turd will cover the entirety of Dante’s face, and invade his nostrils with its putrid stench. Now Dante will smell even worse than he had previously. When he wakes up and is faced with the horror of what lies on his face, he will probably puke his guts out; however, not even this awful stink will be enough to awaken Dante for another hour or so. Skorn and Sin both break into hysterical laughter as they walk away from the scene in the direction that they had come; the direction of Sunagakure. Skorn and Sin might find these immature pranks to be hilarious, but Dante will no doubt be horrified when he awakens. He will be in terrible pain, have none of his possessions on him anymore, he will have a strange marking carved into his flesh that will no doubt leave a scar, and his face will be covered in the most rancid pile of crap one would think to be possible. He would also be forced to walk back to his village in this state. Skorn and Sin did not care for this however, this was just another day for them.

((Took all of Dante’s stuff including his clothes and ryo. So that’s 1,950 ryo, naginata (x1), shuriken (x10), kunai (x7), explosive tags (x2).))

Dante finally awoke from his unconscious state about 4 hours after the battle. When Dante awoke, he was naked! He also had a massive shit on his face! 
"AHHHHH!" Dante screamed throwing it off his face.
"What the muthafuck happened to me..." thought Dante in a daze. 
He felt dizzy as hell and had low amounts of coordination. 
"I must have gotten my ass kicked.. and i'm naked. Great. AND I'm missing all my shit." he thought to himself.
About at this point, Dante felt a really burning pain in his chest area. He looked down, and there it was. A fucking pentagram in his chest. 
"That bastard... this is awful." Dante said to himself.
Luckily, Dante noticed on his way up here there was a hot spring about a mile from this area on the way back to his village. If Dante could just manage to get over to that spring, he could wash himself off and clean the blood off of his chest. Then he could maybe sneak into the village at night time when nobody was around and make it into his home to get a new robe. The only thing that he couldn't achieve was re-collecting his money and possessions that were lost. Dante would have to work for all that stuff back. Dante stood up, about to puke from the scent of his own body, and took off sprinting towards the wooded area on the road back to his village.
