Thunder Fist Brigade Assemble!!

Giana came to a startling jump when a foot connected with her gut. This had, thankfully, woken her up from her horrid dream. Tears were running down her face. 

"Get up you damn girl. Fear what? My name is Near... but you can sit there in fear and call me Death."


Was what she heard him say to her. With a struggle, she began to stand up. She would not take that kick lightly, no matter if he was a team member or not, she was no longer having a good day. Kazekage-Sama seemed displeased with her, she had a random night terror when she was wide freaking awake and this asshole decided to kick her and try to intimidate her. Enough was freaking enough. Sure, one could say her tolerance was low, but she gave 0 fucks about it. "Ok there, here's whats going to happen." She began, turning into sand, as so physical hits would do minimal damage "You are going to shut up, tell me your name, and I'll tell you mine. We will than be friends, and I won't have to hurt you. Do I make myself clear." 

Near would listen to what the girl had to say. She was standing up for herself at this point. But she did not understand that Near had given her his name. He would sigh as he would watch the powers of the girl unfold. She was sand and this village had been the perfect arsenal for her. As he would begin to laugh at her. "You woman. You do not understand me. I am Near. That is my name and that is all you will get. But you think you can hurt me." Near would stop laughing and the air around him would become serious. He would raise up his hand and he would produce a tunnel of wind. This tunnel would suck in the little bugs that would fly by him and kill them. As he would quickly mold this wind into a human figure. This Human figure was him.

This was the greatest technique that he had to show the woman. As they would stand side by side they would be more than identical. "Ill be damned if i let some dumb girl tell me what the fuck i will do!!!!!" Near would yell as he and the other would run toward the girl. They would split up and Near would simply disappear in a flutter of paper butterflies. The left was another story. "Attack me, show me he didn't go easy on some stupid girl." NEar gave the girl a smile. As he would reach the girl. His fist would aim for what would seem to be her cheek. He would hold back his strength but he would use enough force to push the girl back. The butterflies would take their position in the trees and wait.

Giana listened as her now opponent spoke to her. Near, was it. "I'm Giana." is all she said, before he made what seemed to be a clone of himself, as he turned into paper butterflies, and disperse. So, it was her against the clone. When he flung the punch, the clone would come to learn that it would phase right through her. Giana glared, as her sand that he had punched through would clamp down on the clone, preventing his movement. Giana would make more sand creep up the clone's legs, and at the knee caps, it would contract, making it so that he wouldn't be able to move. It would continue to climb up unless he did something to try and escape.

Near had quickly made an opponent out of the girl, Her name was Giana. There had been little that he had known about her except for the fact she was made of sand. Or it had been something different. The girl had carried a power much like that of their very own Kage. But had she had the power to control that power was the true question. As each of Near's paper butterflies would land in the tree. They would each take a branch and land on it. This had been his position in battle as the two would clash. The girl made of sand was now up against the man of paper. Near had been out of it the whole time that she went up against the kage. So it would be impossible for him to gauge any power till she attacked, but it had been unknown if the girl was present during the fight with the kage.

Each step would be taken into consideration as he would begin to think on his strategy of attack. Though this would be long after the girl and the wind cyclone would meet with each other. It had been up to her had they parted ways. Was she fast enough to escape something that would suck her in like a black hole or would she struggle with life and death. As the near that would take on this young girl was long gone. Near had no real intent to kill the girl with his technique but it had seemed he needed to put things into place. His position in the new team had been the team leader. So the first thing he had to do was show his worth to the only other team member that showed up to the first meeting. Where had the other been? Was he already dead in a ditch. Near did not think lightly of the humans that lived in the village of the sand. He only wanted out.

The creation of a demon was more than he could bare. His teacher had seen the deadly eyes that were brought upon the boy once he awoke from that nightmare. The eyes that were given to him at birth. As those bloody red eyes would stare down the girl, and his eyes would spin he would begin to reconstruct himself 20 meters from the woman, had she still been in the spot of the wind tunnel. His distance was perfect and his face would look towards the direction of the pointing compass. His eyes would lock on to the girl and his sheathe would rattle slightly. The girl was no threat to Near, but was this really the boy that was found half-dead in the river.

His katana would take no more than a second to be taken from its sheathe. And it would touch the ground once released from the sheathe. The voices would reappear, but it had been more than before. His mind was racing through death and rebirth. His soul was split but his heart was still in one piece. 'The boy will be nothing but a tool for death's arsenal.' One voice would say as it began to cackle. The darkness of his mind was filled with hate, but cleansed by love. He would hear his father as he would die in the tragic attack of the minor village hidden in the waterfall. "The Waterfall..."Near would utter outloud as his eyes would become somewhat dull. The glow from the sharingan would no longer reign but they would still exist.

The boy was now lost in thought as a being would engulf his mind and take his body as his own. This being had been something that took his power as something that could not be beaten. He was a demon from hell and a sin that had been deadly, Pride. His eyes would open wider as he would begin to sprint to the girl. Near was now stuck in a world that was almost inescapable. 'Where am I...' Near would utter as he sat in a dark room. A door would appear with forty chains on its side. 'let me out please...' Near said as he would begin to cry. His appearance had changed at this point. He was now in the form of a child that had been no older then 7. His tears would fall like a stream down his pale skin. The boy wore the traditional clothing of a waterfall ninja. As the teardrops fell on the boy's navy blue shirt leaving no sign.

'My children.. I did not exist to see my fruits of labor bear.... I lived to pass on my legacy. Live for me... Choose your own paths as Children of the collapse or Children of the stability......' A voice would appear in the room, a deep and comforting voice of a man in his forties. 'Father!!..' Near would yell as he remembered this voice from the parting of the Underground Village. 'But please... please.. Never lose your love for the world and the people in it....' Near would begin to bawl into his hands as his heart would begin to ache from the touching words. Pride had no such weakness to this. As he would continue his pursuit of the girl. He would begin to leap into the air. Such a vulnerable tactic. As He would release his power without hesitating, his arm would turn into a thousand little paper needles. Each set on the girl.

The Needles would fire off as three had been given an explosive surprise. Most of the area was targeted around her, and had she been physical two to five would target her limbs. Pride was not a merciful sin. The attacks were more then enough to let a girl die without a care. As she had made the mistake of attacking the decoy. The clone had been nothing but an attack, point blank. It was meant to destroy the enemy with their own attack. This huge tunnel would suck anything into it that had been within his 3 meter diameter and the 80 meter battle field had been perfect for the attack to not scar the boy in the process.

When the wind picked up further around the clone, Giana tried her damnedest to prevent herself from being sucked in, to the point where she made the sand around the clones feet move up and into a dome around it, and blocking away any other wind that could assist in the suction/cutting. To prevent herself from being sucked in, she made her feet sand in order to latch onto the ground, and prevent her from moving. 

When confronted with the needles, Giana would swiftly summon Knight Class: Defara to shield herself from the needles as best as possible. Some explosions went off against the puppet, but it held on. A compartment on the shield would open up, and out would fire a smoke bomb, to hopefully block out any sight of her.  The puppet would return to it's seal, and Giana would sink into the ground and compress her Chakra, to make it seem she had completely disappeared from sight.

Near would watch as the situation was handled by the girl He would continue to stay in the sky as the field filled with smoke. This would worry him for a moment as he would completely turn his body into paper and begin to swirl around the battle field. He would laugh and his laugh would become faint. The door was released and Near would return. His voice was split from the demon inside and the boy who dwelled in it. "Im surprised you handled that well... but forgive me for that attack..... fuck her she can handle her own shes a smart one. Leave it be you demon..... Ughh lets stop bickering and say what you want please. I want you as my ally... i want you to be the reason for my power missy. accept my offer and my aid will be yours....

Giana didn't know how to react to such an interaction. Was he talking to himself? At this point, Giana had no idea what was going on. Things where weirder than what she originally thought it was. She would slowly begin to reform. When she stopped reforming, She looked like the sand was rising from the ground, but with her Byakugan eyes showing through. "Tell me..." she began "...what is going on with you. Than I will lend you my strength, and will accept yours."

Near began to hold his head as he was struggling for control. Groaning he would completely reform into his angelic state. His large wings on his back would block out the sun as he hovered over the field. His legs would be the cost of this transformation. "I... i can't keep it under control.... help me.." NEar would say as he would then black out. His body reforming into a physical state. Near would fall from the sky. Had he of hit the ground he would be out for months due to being in a coma. But it had been too late at this point. In second his head the ground and like a surge it would all hit him. As he laid on the ground, his body would seem lifeless, but he was not dead.

Giana didn't have a clue what was going on, but things got even weirder when he grew wings. Giana didn't know what to believe at this point, beyond the simple fact that he needed to help him any ways she could. Things got crazy, when she noticed him falling from the sky. In an almost panicked state, she would lift some sand to try and catch him, but it was to late. He slipped through the sand, and hit his head on the ground. "FUCK NO!" was all that came out of her mouth as she ran towards his seemingly lifeless body. She quickly checked for a pulse, and to her relief, she found one. She picked him up with her sand, and raced to the hospital, as she had no healing jutsu. She activated her Byakugan to check his chakra regulation.
