The hunt For Kitsuke Maru.

Seiyuuki entered the gates of his village, cloaked in his new wardrobe. In all honesty, he did not want to do this to his past friend, but he had now made a commitment to a new leader, and as such, he would take Kitsuke Maru in, and seal Raijuu. It was only a matter of time.

Kidate appeared upon one of the pillars that held the massive doors up and closed. He squatted down and squinted his emerald eyes to make out the figure. Nodding, he jumped down with an explosion of wind and sand, and stood menacingly between the ninja and the gates.
"What business have you here, Akatsuki?" Kidate called forward, using wind to protect himself from the sand that flew about in every direction.

miyuki was yards away sitting on a dune, she was behind kidate in his blind spot watching. "........."

"My mission is of no concern of yours dragon of the wind. In fact, you should fly away, before I clip your wings off." Seiyuuki, now going by the name of Daedalus then raised his head, eyes connecting with Kidate. They had made a secret exchange at the time of daedalus' departure from the village, Dae only hoped that Kidate understood that the exchange excluded all other matters, and that they're friendship would not be enough to stop him thsi time.

she hept watching them with her hands in her sleeves. "........"

Kidate cocked an eyebrow and said slowly, "You new here? No one has ever 'clipped my wings'" Kidate emphasized the last bit with air quotes. Then, with a short movement of his wrist, Kidate sent most of the sand out of the area, clearing a 20m radius where they could talk, or fight, without being disturbed by the weather outside.

"Stand down Kidate... Wings are a bloody thing to clip after all."

Without even waiting for a response, Daedalus moved towards Kidate, lunging forwards and covering the space between them in a very short time. As he did, he reached up to tap the necklace Kidate had given him, a staff forming in his hands moments afterwards. As he neared his target, he then spun, aiming to strike Kidate in the temple.

Kidate saw the staff appear and instantly made the connection. He was stunned, but only for a split second. Once he had recovered, Kidate tapped his middle finger, the ring forming a spear to parry the blow of the staff. The contact made a metallic ringing sound that rang through the area. Kidate continued his motion in an attempt to push the staff into the ground.

Letting the staff be pushed downwards, Daedalus flipped over the spear, landing on kidate's backside and kicking his own staff. With the angle, it spun around the spear and back into his hands. From there, Daedalus spun it once more, aiming to strike Kidate along the shoulder blades.

miyuki teleported fast and snatched a seal with an academy rank seal on it. she then teleported back a few yards. "..."

OOC:Wtf does your post mean Miyuki? If you are talking about the scroll, you shouldn't know that I have it. Also, it is deep within the folds of my robes, taking it quickly and without being noticed would be a difficult thing. Third, how exactly do you teleport anyway???

IC: Kidate rolled forward, allowing the staff to sing past where he once was. As a result, Kidate ended up a few feet away from the ninja. Dae ended up being left behind, forced off of his back when Kidate rolled. He stood, raising the spear in an offensive stance.

(( no, it was a different one. filed with weapons. i can teleport ack because i can teleport forwards.))

As Kidate rolled away, Daedalus tapped a spot just below where his naval should be. In response, his legs were swapped out, not that anyone would be able to tell, with his Akatsuki cloak covering them. Now, they were slightly slower, but much stronger. As Kidate stood, Daedalus planted Tsumi, using it to vault his way towards his target, feet first, aiming to kick him in the chest.

Legs 10 C; Pneumatic System
Backed by a pneumatic system, these legs are designed for taijutsu. Though not as quick as the taijutsu legs, they are capable of deliver rock shattering blows and can leap extremely high. The seal symbol for this part is just below Daedalus' naval.

Kidate dropped downward, resealing the spear as he went. The puppet flew straight over Kidate, who was sprawled out on the ground. Standing slowly, Kidate turned to face Dae and said, "Where is the power a Kazekage should have?"

kidate felt he was being pressed down. miyuki had moulded her chi into strings and was now using them to hold the jounin down, imobolizing him. "........"

Daedalus turned, his staff sealing away as well.

"Your kazekage died, where is the power grief should have given you?"

Looking at Kidate quizically, a small glint of remorse showed in Dae's eyes, but was then wiped away. A large scorpion like tail, poisoned with the Willow's skin eating disease then began to slide it's way out from under Dae's cloak. In seconds, it's large form loomed overtop of Kidate, before stabbing down briskly, aiming for his solarplex.

"I'll show it to you when you start fighting me one on one." Kidate replied severely, noticing the pressure the willow had placed upon him somehow. He knew that even with his speed he could not dodge the attack, so he braced himself, ready to take whatever hit he did. Suddenly, in a flash of green and red, Ochiba landed in front of Kidate. Kidate's face was sprayed with blood as Ochiba was pierced through, taking the death blow in Kidate's stead.

miyuki looked at the dead body. she kept it at the same pressure and waited for kidate to reveal himself.

Daedalus' tail swiped Ochiba out of the way, tossing him against a food stand.

"She acts on her own, all I have to ask you, Is how many more of your friends need to die before you do?"

The tail then raised again, this time adjusting it's aim for Kidate's neck. If it hit, it would decapitate him.

Kidate, with the limited mobility he had, took in a massive breath and slammed his fist into his gut. This motion expelled a sphere formed of air and chakra that shot toward Dae, hoping to distract him from his attack in an attempt to defend himself. He glanced over at Ochiba, and shedding a few tears, lifted his spear to intercept the tail if his attack didn't work.

Jutsu Used~
Name:Renkuudan - Drilling Air Projectile
Rank:-
Type:Attack
Effect:Fuuton • Renkuudan is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing the Wind Element. The demon Shukaku inhales a large amount of air into his chest and then slams his fist into his chest to expel it. To strengthen the attack Shukaku will imbue chakra into the air. When expelled it forms concussive spherical projectiles capable of inflicting large damage.

The tail shifted in response, deflecting the sphere and saving Daedalus from the blow. To continue his attack however, two cables extended from Dae's sleeves, his cloak showing signs they were coming from his shoulder blades. Both were tipped with the same Willow poison. As they struck, one wrapped itself around the spear, attempting to hold it tight, while the other aimed for Kidate's heart.

~And I should have posted these, the parts I've used so far.~

Back 5A; Mask of Despair
A large red mask with a gaping mouth resides on the back. From the mouth, a large scorpion “tongue” like tail can be extended. This weapon is heavily bladed, armored and poisoned. The eyes of the mask are closed, but if one looks into them after they open, they will be caught in a powerful genjutsu. The tongue may also be disconnected and wielded as a sword. The seal symbol for this part is on Daedalus’ solar plexus.

Shoulder Blades 4A; Cables
Two spiked cable extend from the shoulder blades. These cables are strong enough to easily lift three to four hundred pounds each, and have a total reach of thirty meters. The seal symbol for this part is on Daedalus’ neck.

Kidate released the spear, allowing it to be held down by the wire. Then, tapping his wrist, Kidate summoned a large metal fan, in the shape of a broadsword, to protect him from the second wire. Kidate would normally by able to pull the fan out and deflect it with wind, but the damned chi strings were slowing him down.

At this point, Daedalus was wasting no time. Keeping the spear pinned, the second cable made an attempt to wrap around the base of the fan. His tail too now coming back in play, snaked it's way through the sand, attempting to attack Kidate's side.

Kidate, who now had a little extra time, sliced at the cable with the broadsword-shaped fan. The edges allowed it to act as a blade, but the blade passed below the cable a fraction of an inch. The cable passed right above the fan, singing through the air as the fan met the tail head-on and attempted to deflect it away. Kidate then opened the fan completely, taking to the air and hoping to detach himself from the chi strings.

The cables and tail retracted after clanging off one another, but not completely, hovering around Daedalus instead. Kidate was now well out of range for his conventional weapons, but was a perfect target for more unique weapons now. Aiming his left hand at the flying Kidate, Daedalus' sleeve slid downward, exposing his elbow, which was then tapped by his right index finger. After the smoke cleared, the akatsuki member's hand flipped up and backwards, revealing a large tube. With a small concussive blast, hundreds of small balled up explosive tags, covered in a sticky substance shot into the air, guided by strings.

Flying in a spread pattern, as soon as Daedalus' thought he heard the sounds of them tacking themselves to the fan, his hand flipped down. As it did so, it pulled on all the strings, before cutting them off, setting the explosive tags on fire. The puppet king then smirked, as the sky lit up in flames.

Left Arm 3C; Spider Web Bomb
The hand flips up at the wrist, revealing a tube. Multiple balled up explosive tags are then fired out, all attached back to the tube by thin strings. After the explosives have covered the desired area, the hand flips back down, tugging on the string and setting off the bombs before cutting the strings themselves, preparing to reload. Has multiple seal symbols around the elbow, each one corresponding to a different arm part.
