Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sutsuki kept a vigilant watch as well from her perch in the tree. After a moment, her glasses clicked off as she tired of the constant negative results.

"Well, we got some luck on our side since you have water to work with. Will it be enough?" She said, directing her comment and question towards Akari.

She nodded. It seemed that things were already in their favor, save for the arrival of the other team. With a sigh and sat on her rear, unclipping her jutte from her back and lying the defensive weapons beside her.

"I do hope the other team isn't playing spy games when there's no point to at the moment."

As Akari sat and kept taking water into his body he tried to think of a battle plan. He sat and discarded lpan after plan, it had to be soild, one with low risk for himself and his team mates and low chance of escape for his enemies. ... He contonued to think.... 'An underground water way to move water around quickly?... No there wasn't enough tme to set something that complex up.' Then in come to him. He pulled a small vile of a purple goo from the inside pocket of his jacket. He applied the goo to his hands and submerged them back into the water. His hands began absorbing the water at five time the rate it was going before. A few moments later it stopped and Akari pulled his hands out of the water. That should be enough... plus I don't know if my body can hold any more and use it at an efficiant level. He retreated back into the trees and found a place near his female counterpart. He then started to set a trap for the enemy incase he needed a diversion. He took a kunai from his pouch and some spring wire as well. He tied the wire so it was tight and able the throw the kunai at least 100 feet. He then contiuned to take yet another vile from the pocket of his jacket. He took the green goo from the vile, and careful not to spill, applied it to the kuni's blade. As he placed the green kunai in a locking position his finger slipped and the weapon propeled forward slicing him along his check and headed straight for his hottie team mate!

'Oh s**t!' This was not the worst thing that could happen, but it most likliy won't hurt her... hopfully his team mate would see it coming.

Virgil was still meditating taking in every movement made using his hightened sences. He felt the wind running of something smooth and sharp, which caused it to whistle loudly. He brought his bare arm up attempting to catch the projectile, but it sliced onto the back of his hand. It was a green kunai with something wet on it. He inspected the wound and seeing just a small cut he ignored it. With one smooth motion he twisted and hurled it far into the outer forest where it would probably be buried in the vast undergrowth.

He looked up to his teamates indicating that he was okay. Standing up he dusted leaves and moss of his clothes and ran up a tree. Using his speed and the tree as leverage he jumped off one tree landed on a branch and began swinging. After gaining speed he shot off the branch bounced off of another tree and stood on a high branch. His eye sight was poor, yet he accomplished the feat with utmost care and exccelency. Now he was almost above his teamates and had a great view of the forest. He leaned on the branch and watched the nice setting kepping an eye out for the enemy tree.

(( speak the power))

[ xp More fun. ]

The captains speed was too quick to react to as Akari fell back on the brach landing on his butt. Luckily the brach was thick enough for him not to fall off of, with little effort he managed to stay on the branch. though the ANBU's actions had made him realize
how open he was to a high speed attack.

"Sorry guys.... that goo just made it so your chakra flow would be stopped for a few moments, but you should be okay after it runs it's course." He said fastening another kunai to the wire, careful to not mess up again. "Nothing to worry about, just a failed plan."

"Damn, now I can use that trick again, the enemy will obviously see it coming." He whispered quitely to himself as he set the direction of the new kunai he had placed.

((Editted))

Virgil's senced the sudden action seconds beofre it was commited. He had time to pivote on one foot and was barely touched by the assassailant, but in doing so he lost his balance and fell a few feet before catching another branch and launching himself up.
