[Red Alert] B-Rank Zaru

[Diatenshi]

In a mountain not far from the border of of the land of fire and the land of wind a village that relies on tourism has been suffering the invasion of their famous hot springs. Reports of an overgrown snow monkey driving away visitors, attacking them with scalding hot water was enough to ruin any business. Hearing the rumors of the beast Toshi was sure a ninja would come to take care of it.

As he was passing through Toshi thought he'd give the over grown monkey a wrestle and see if he could beat it out of the mountains. He arrived to the small little mountain village and was quickly directed to the bath house. The people seemed excited upon seeing his well built figure. He assumed they thought he might be a ninja. Sadly he had no tricks. He wasn't a ninja, he was a martial artist that trained in the way of the body. He couldn't breath fire or shoot lightening from his finger tips. He was gonna give that monkey and old fashioned beat down using pure strength.

The inside of the bath house was destroyed and thick clumps of wet white fur we're strewn about. He stepped into the main bath room and finally viewed the beast with his own eyes. The thing was massive standing at 8 ft tall. He wagered his head would fit in it's Palm. "Now we can do this one of two ways you damn monkey. Either you go back to whatever hole you crawled out of and you leave these nice folk alone, or I can drag you kicking and screaming down out of this mountain."

Zaru had been having the time of his life since escaping that dusty old tower. He'd found a nice little hot spring which he could soak and relax in. The only problem was the hairless ones that kept getting in his way. At first they tried to attack him and drive him out but after he blasted one of their males in the face with boiling water,they backed off. Some even started leaving offerings. It was good to be king he'd thought. He was in the middle of nice hot bath relaxing as he ate some fruit the locals had delivered when he heard the arrogant voice. He frowned and growled back in response. He looked over and seeing the young man's face, began to laugh thinking he was just another punk that would flee after getting hit with some hot water.

He'd perform a series of hand seals then spit out a orb of scalding hot water towards the young man if the jutsu hit it'd cause some minor first degree burns. Thinking the fight would be over he sunk back down into the water to resume relaxing not giving the young man a second thought.

With most of her friends and fellow shinobi occupied elsewhere, it had fallen upon Masami herself to investigate rumors of a dangerous spirit that had appeared and been ravaging the countryside. Upon her arrival however, it seemed that the rumors themselves had been a little exaggerated, though after a short investigation it had been easy to conclude that even so, the beast was definitely causing problems for the townsfolk. Oddly enough according to the townsfolk, the part of the rumors concerning the spirits' appearance seemed to be accurate however. Most people may have been surprised at the fact that a giant snow monkey could attack with boiling hot water but concerning the beast that was sealed inside of her, she couldn't really be surprised by much anymore.

Spirits really do come in all varieties, though I wonder why this one is choosing to deliberately attack a human town. she thought, directing her thoughts towards Aturasu, the genma seeming to chuckle in response.

"I cannot say. Spirits, much like humans, are nigh unpredictable. They could be malicious or they could simply be mischievous. You never know what they may do next." the beast spoke.

Well that's troublesome. I don't want to have to kill an innocent creature that's simply playing around. She tilted her head as she walked towards the hot spring, genuinely concerned about the possibility of this creature possibly not being malicious at all but rather misunderstood.

"Understood but you are willing to do what you must, yes? Innocent or no, the spirit is causing harm and we must protect this land."

Yes yes, I'll judge the situation and then from there, do what I feel I must. I have to be confident and trust my own judgment from now on. She let out a sigh, recalling Takeo's words from their recent meeting. Now was the chance to prove that she had what it took but it was going to be difficult.

"Very well, I shan't question your decisions child."

With that conversation having come to an end, she saw that they had arrived at the hot springs and sure enough an overgrown monkey was sitting comfortably in the hot spring, a man being present as well. From his appearance she could only assume that he was a samurai and that he had come here for the same reason as herself. There was the chance however that he was dangerous so rather than approaching she simply hid behind a nearby wall, poking her head out just enough to watch the confrontation.

[Diatenshi]

"So the hard way it is." Toshi would crack his neck before easily side stepping the slow orb of scalding water. He'd charge towards the lazy monkey. He wanted to take the target out quickly and would start with a strike to it's face. He'd pivot as he threw a right hook.

The spirit not expecting it's foe to be so strong, wouldn't react in time to dodge the blow. It had enough time to turn it's head to see a fist flying towards him. The price of it hubris was a giant black eye that was bleeding and swollen shut. The monkey would let out a scream and slap the edge of the spring. Pulling itself out while kicking its legs out hitting Toshi square in the chest knocking him back into the wall busting through it.

Toshi would cough and wince as he stood up. The monkey was fairly strong and the impact had knocked the wind out of him. It's style appeared wild and unrefined though whether that was from anger or just it's style of fighting he couldn't tell yet.

As he was getting up he'd notice the young lady. Having never met a ninja before he thought her attire was odd but didn't make anything of it. "Hey kid you might wanna get out of here quickly. The monkey isn't nice and I just made him really mad. I don't want you getting caught in the crossfire" he'd whisper to the girl quickly not wanting her to get injured.

He jumped back through the wall quickly, oping the app didn't notice the young girl, and got into a basic fighting stance, one foot resting directly in front of the other with just the toes in contact with the ground. A hand is held back while the other is forward, pointing up ready to dodge or party as necessary to resolve incoming attacks.

Come on you over grown ape. Surely you can hit harder than that. My mother hits harder than that, you hit like chimp." Toshi would smirk as he goaded and trash talked the monkey. He wanted it mad he wanted to keep it angry so he could take advantage of it's disrupted sight.

Karu

As he was relaxing he'd hear the orb splash and splatter. His smirk would slowly fade as confusion replaced his confidence. He'd been expecting to hear screams of pain following the splash yet the screams never came. He heard a sound from behind and as he turned to look his face felt like it'd been hit by an ox.

He'd scream in pain that slap his palms down on the edge of the bath propelling his body up. He'd kick out with his feet sending the intruder flying through the wall. He'd turn around and look at his reflection in the water. Seeing the swelling and blood his face would turn aggressive and irate. He'd put a hand to his face and wince growling in pain. He'd turn towards the hole in the wall to see the furless bastard jumping through.

"You little pest how dare you injure the great Karu. This King here promises he'll return your corpse to your next of kin in pieces!" The ape would shout at the intruder holding it's eye with one hand while the other eye glared at the offender.

The monkey charged forward performing hand seals then spit out yet another orb of water aimed for the ceiling. Upon impact the orb burst and released scalding water to splash down around Toshi's location. Kura would already have a fist swinging forward if Toshi tried to escape forward.

As angry as he was and with his sight hampered, Kura had yet to notice the newcomer that was spying on the scene. His attention was wholely on the young man and his mind was filled with violent thoughts of revenge.

Masami could only smirk as the boy noticed her and tried to convince her to get away, though why he had referred to her as a kid was anyone's guess. Regardless, he would have to try harder than that. Granted she could have gone home anyways as she had by all rights already completed her mission but now that she was here, leaving these people to fend for themselves didn't really seem right.

"So you're going to fight."

Of course I am. These people haven't done anything wrong and they're part of our land. If you're worried then don't be. There's no way I'm going to lose to an overgrown monkey.

"Ha. Whose almighty power do you think you're wielding girl?"

She couldn't help but smile at that last remark. The beast had sure softened towards her during their time together but still he was arrogant as ever. It was appreciated though, as it would often help push her back up when she was losing confidence, intentionally or not.

With that she emerged from her hiding spot and approached the brawl, though didn't yet make a move herself, waiting to see just what would happen. Though that said, she was fully ready to react to whatever would go down.

[Diatenshi]

Toshi would dive forward to dodge bother the hot water and the fist, then sweep his legs forward in a kick knocking the giant ape off its feet. Another kick would send it flying back towards the hot springs. The monkey would crash into a statue then land in the water.

Toshi would smirk then look back at the woman who'd step through the wall. "Didn't I already tell you it's not safe?" He'd shake his head slightly irritated. He still hadn't realized the girl was a ninja yet and was worried she'd get in his way.

He'd move forward cautiously only to realize the ape had disappeared in the water just as he was about to jump in he'd hear a loud crash from behind. The Monkey had allowed the source of the hot spring water and had swum underneath him. The monkey had broken up through the floor splashing hot water everywhere as it tried to grab the girl.

"Hey look out!" Although he clearly was unable to reach her before the ape he'd still try building up speed to run towards them.

Karu

His smirk look would leave his face as the ground was suddenly behind him. He'd thought with his speed he'd be able to hit the boy in front of him. Sadly his punch wouldn't have reached so his trap had failed. As he was sent flying he'd notice the girl in the back and come up with a devious plot.

After falling into the water he'd swim into a hidden channel he'd made for escaping. Keeping a mental map he'd stop when he reached the location of the woman and would burst through the floor behind her. Planning to use her as a hostage to escape he'd reach for her neck.
