A future ally [Jinn/MangetsuHozuki] Private/NK

Jinn is now moving at the most fastest speeds capable to him as of yet. From his view point everything around him is a blur. He readies himself to pull out of the attack if he feels that it might be too great a danger to Mangetsu. As he gets closer, he lets his sword graze the ground on his way towards Mangetsu. The sword leaves a straight line of damage behind Jinn. He lifts his sword up at the last moment and aims it towards Mangetsu's sword. Figuring that the most likely outcome would be that he either knocks Mangetsu down or Mangetsu liquifies. Before impact he says "Let's go towards our goals!"

He sees jinn's blade pierce the ground and stands ready and determined to take the attack the precautions of hydrification in mind as he is confident in taking this powerful strike from his new ally. " Show me your true power attack with out worry cause i will not die here " he smiles as he begins to feel the emence power behind the clash of the swords start to push him back " Yes lets go full force into our goal and never fail " he grits his teeth putting all he has into trying to stop this strike from being too much for him

The swords clash once again. Jinn's hands tightly wrapped round the handle of the sword. He can feel the metal ring from the collision. His hands begin to jitter, but he stands his ground unwilling to let go of his katana. He was surprised at his allies strength. "You know this battle is gonna go on forever." He says as he repositions his feet still pushing his katana harder. "Neither one of us will admit defeat or be defeated." *sparks begin to fly into the air* "Because our will and determination is the same. However, I sill admit that you make up for your skill with your spirit." He says between gritted teeth.

He begins to feel a little tired but does not show it on the outside. Not willing to give Mangetsu that kind of advantage over him. He was surprised and excited. Since this was his first real spar with another swordsmen. He was glad that he chose to wait and had the opportunity to meet a future ally and a strong one at that.

As the swords clash and the sparks fly the only thing going through mangetsu mind is that he can not give in to his waivering strength as his body starts to feel exhausted even though he keeps his cool on the outside he feels like his power is definetly diminished as this has been going on for so long " you are correct but it is our determination that allows us to be such great allies " He can feel it as he begins to get pushed back even more that he definately needs to conserve his energy to liquify if he needs to. " well i have to make up with spirit cause you skill is so great " he grits his teeth showing the shark like teeth of his.

Mangetsu realizes that this battle will more than likely end poorly for him but keeps on because he can not be bested when he is trying to prove that he is strong enough to become a swordsman. This is also the first time that anyone has ever pushed his swordsman ship to this great length " if nothing else i have learned a great deal from fighting you " he smiles as he tries to keep from revealing the pain his body is in from the extent of this spar.

This battle alone proved Jinn's studies correct. Which were that rank pretty much meant nothing. He came to this resolve earlier during their spar. The fact that a person whom is a Genin could push his skills all most towards their limit. Proved that rank meant nothing. In fact it was whom had the greater determination and since Jinn and Mangetsu's determination and goals were the same proved the closeness of their over all strength. He knew after this spar he would need to train harder than ever.

Jinn smirks a little at Mangetsu's statements "Yes, maybe after some time of training, we can do a few missions together. To show how much we have evolved from today." He says as he begins to push with the last remainder of his strength. His hands sweaty and grip loosening little by little. As his muscles begin to quiver, he figures it won't be too much longer before he collapses all together. He pushes with his sword using his last ounce of strength.

Mangetsu took pride in the fact that he was able to take this spar as far as he has even without the being of on the same level. Things will be great once i become a swordsman with my new ally Jinn he thinks to himself. The power the two of them already wield along with that of the other five swordsman will be amazing and will bring pride back to the village of kirigakura. He thinks as he feels the muscles in his body grow weak i do not know how much more i can take.

" yes doing missions to prove our power together would be great and it would help us to grow stronger as allies as well " He smiles as he also feels as though his grip on his blade is weakening he feels the last push of jinn's sword toward his and realizes that his hold on the blade is too weak as of this moment and it sends his sword flying. The second before Jinn's blade was able to make contact with his body he use the very last of his strength to use his hydrification technique to liquify his body and let him emerge unharmed. He reforms near his fallen sword out of breath and at his limits. " It is good to have sparred with you cause i have never been pushed so hard and i think that i can learn a great deal from the battle he have had hear today " He smiles try to keep himself stand as best as he can knowing that the power of this man in front of him should have taken him from the beginning but because of his cool head and quick thinking he was able to last as long as he did " After this i think i am going to need some serious training in order to deal with things to come cause if i meet someone of your caliber in real battle i may actually meet my demise and that would not be good to see before if have fulfilled my goals "

Jinn smiles when Mangetsu agrees with him. His hands are now quivering and his grip almost gone when his strength finally over comes Mangetsu. As soon as Mangetsu's sword takes flight into the air. Jinn stabs his sword firmly into the ground and leans on it with his right hand, for support. Sweat dripping onto the ground, he takes in a deep breath and is a little saddened at the fact that he could not fight just a little longer.

"Yeah, I think we both have improvements that must be made, before we can get into any life or death situations." He looks up at the sky as it is now darkening, with the moon slowly emerging. "Well, its getting late, it was nice meeting ya." *Puts sword in sheath* "Since we are both from Kiri I guess I'll see ya later." He begins to walk off into the night headed back to his village to train and become even stronger.

It has been great to have meet you cause i know that we are going to make for great allies for the time to come. Any time you need help you just look for an out of place puddle and it will most likely be me hahaha" He then sheathes his sword and walks over to the lake looking into it and then liquifys and floats away from the battlefield.
