1 Defeat the Assassins [mission] Mon Dec 23, 2013 4:05 am
Dameon
D-rank
Five days; the fighting had been non-stop. He stared up at the ceiling of the hospital room he had been placed it. He couldn’t remember anything from the previous day and he had minor wounds across his body. Something had happened and to his surprise he had woken up here. It was not reassuring in the least, he had done countless missions and had been wounded plenty and had been operating on such minimal sleep he wondered if he had just passed out. It was quiet though, even as the war raged on it seemed so quiet and calm it made his heart drop. He looked outside and the village itself seemed well. He stood up and walked slowly to the window his body feeling fine as he scanned the village it looked like the fighting had stopped but the damage was still there. He was in a gown now as well and his clothes were set aside on the opposite end of the room. Something still bothered him though he didn’t know what it was entirely; just a bad feeling that came over him. He made his way over to the other side of the room and got dressed slowly as he peeled the bandages off of him.
After getting dressed he looked outside of his room not seeing anyone or even hearing anything. If things were back to normal where was everyone at? At least that was the thought that kept running in his mind as he searched the hospital while making his way to the exit. There was still nothing, it was like everyone in the village had vanished overnight and the village was now a ghost town. As he exited the hospital he continue to look around using his keen eyes to try and locate any lead on what was going on or what might have happened, but there was nothing. Dameon quickly decided that if something had happened there would be information somewhere in the key facilities of the village. Turning toward the admin building he began running toward it. Even nature was quiet, no birds, or even the feel of a breeze against his skin. Surely if something had happened the Mizukage or at least someone would have made it to the admin building to give a clue or warning. Another though occurred to him as well, if the entire village was a ghost town why had he been the only person left in the village.
As he came to the admin building he simply ran through the doors throwing them open and proceeding up the stairs, there was still nothing. No sign of anyone leaving in a hurry, no sign of a struggle, and no sign of another human being. He ran through the war room glancing for any clues and finding none ran into the Mizukage’s office. Again no sign of anyone but this time he could see something written on the Mizukage’s desk. His eyes widened as he read the note, the note confirmed the death of the Mizukage and contingency plans for evacuation but the enemy knowing of the whereabouts due to Seven Bell’s past with the village. It is assumed everyone was captured or killed outside and away from the village. His heart sank even more as a feeling of fear and remorse washed over him. He had clearly read what was written but couldn’t believe it, though part of him had done just that as it began to eat away at him. He needed to find them and at least scout or attempt to rescue to citizens of Kiri, it was his duty.
He raced out of the admin building knowing the contingency plans as well. He needed to check the coastline for any signs of life. Something had caught his eye however as he saw a glimpse of someone moving behind a building. Someone else was there and it was likely an enemy if the note was accurate in its information. Yet something bothered him even more about the note but he decided not to dwell on it knowing there was an enemy somewhere around him. He needed to follow them however knowing that they would surely have answers if he could get them to speak. Rounding the corner of the same building at full speed his heart again escalated as he saw who he had been chasing. Toraika stood there in front of him bleeding and exhausted. Her body looked worn down and beaten and barely able to stand. Out of pure instinct he ran to her side catching her as she had begun to fall. He looked at her tears forming in his eyes wondering just what had happened. She was trying to speak and he stopped her letting her keep her strength but she had insisted.
“Dameon…everyone was taken. I tried to hold them off but there were too many…behind you,” she said as he eyes widened. Dameon turned around only to catch a back hand to his face and being tossed to the ground a few feet away from her. He looked back at who had hit him and there he was the main villain himself, Seven Bells. Who was now standing over Toraika with one of his small swords drawn just above her head. A wave of anger fell over him but before he could say anything the man opened his lips.
“Another weak fledgling of the mist, you however have something I want and that is the only reason you are alive. You love this woman do you not? I want information on the last thing you could remember, before we knocked you out you were fighting us in the war, where were your troops located, and who are the Seven Swordsman and what abilities do they possess? Answer those questions and I will kill you and not your beloved,” the man said lowering his blade to Toraika’s neck. She couldn’t walk before so Dameon knew she wouldn’t be able to get out of the way now. He also knew he wouldn’t be able to get to her in time to save her should he not comply with what the man wanted. He loved her and though in the past he had not known love or had any meaningful relationships he would be willing to die for her but not like this. Something was still bothering him as he thought but Seven Bells seemed hell bent on not giving him time to think. He kept slowly cutting into her skin around her neck making him want to answer immediately. He knew everything that he wanted to hear but the fact he was asking it after the fact seemed pointless and maybe that was the key to it all.
He thought back as quickly as he could decide on a course of action. The village had been too quiet, nobody and no trace of anyone in the village. The mysterious letter on the mizukages desk about the death of the mizukage. It all seemed too strange and now Seven Bells was asking information about the previous positioning of troops when it would have seem liked the enemy had won. He had a choice to make and he knew exactly what his gut was telling him. His eyes had been able to point out miniscule details that had lead him to believe nothing was as it seemed, his eyes though hadn’t been the giveaway. It had been all of it, well thought out and played well into his fears but now he was certain that this world was not real. The world was simply an illusion and all genjutsu had some sort of flaw in it at least In his own mind. He raised his hands up quickly.
"KAI!" he yelled but came up short, the world around him had not gone away and had not changed. Now things were looking bad. He began to think of why it wouldn’t have worked. If he had been captured and his arms bound he wouldn’t have been able to form an actual hand sign. Perhaps the key was to do the exact opposite of what the user of the genjutsu wanted. In this case it would be to not release information and let Toraika die, but his emotions within the genjutsu were still very real even if the world was not. He stood to his feet and looked at Seven Bells he needed to create a paradox in which the world would not be able to comprehend. His hands were bound he was almost certain about that so if he was to kill himself in the genjutsu a paradox would occur that would kill the genjutsu altogether. Having decided on his plan he pulled a kunai out from his coat and quickly slashed it through his own throat. As he fell to the ground bleeding out his eyes closed, hoping it wouldn’t be for the last time.
Coughing slightly he opened his eyes seeing a completely different environment than before. His assumption had been correct except now he seemed to be in a worse situation than before. There were a good six guys in old ANBU masks surrounding him. He himself was tied by wire that was digging into his skin causing him to bleed as he hung from the ceiling of what appeared to be old ruins. One of the men lowered his hand from Dameon’s forehead and swore to himself silently. As he turned and walked away while all the others stood around him. Dameon had completely forgotten what had happened while he had been under the genjutsu but now he remembered clearly. He had been assigned a mission to track the previous ANBU members that were now working for Seven Bells and obtain any useful information. He had walked into a trap where the enemy ninja has used Dameon’s sensing abilities against him and had been quickly captured. They had been torturing him for the better part of the afternoon. He was cut in all sorts of places by other things than just the wire that was holding him up. He looked at the group of ninja that seemed frustrated at not acquiring any information out of him yet.
Dameon himself began to analyze his situation as the group of ninja talked amongst themselves out of ear shot. His weapons and equipment were on the table to the left of him along with his sword. He was trying to think of an escape plan at this point knowing if they couldn’t extract information out of him they would simply kill him and return back to Seven Bells. His focused on his hands that were behind him and uncomfortably aimed upward halfway up his back. He needed to aim toward the wire that was holding him in the air. If he could land on the ground he could get out of his predicament a lot easier. He focused his chakra into his right index finger as he struggled to aim it upward completely, he knew his raiton katana wouldn’t be enough to cut through the wire but his other jutsu could, the problem was that if he missed he could easily end up killing himself with his own technique. He breathed in and out slowly as he leaned his head forward and focused before releasing the jutsu, a beam of white raiton shooting out nearly missing his scalp and hitting the wire releasing him. He landed on his feet quietly hoping they hadn’t noticed as he gripped the beam and lightly cut the area around his hands as he felt the wires give slack and release him. He quickly grabbed his sword and other equipment but as he did so they realized he had escaped. He cussed himself out under his breath as he prepared to fight drawing out his legendary dagger but not activating it yet as he dodged a wave of kunai from the enemy. He didn’t know if he could take on this many ninja of similar level to himself alone. Half the number maybe but six was pushing it.

- Spoiler:
Name: White Lightning Beam
Canon/Custom: Custom
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Element: Raiton
Range: 70m
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: 1 Post
Cooldown:7 Posts
Description: Dameon mixes his natural electricity created from his clan into the ration chakra he uses with his jutsus. The result is lightning that moves at such a high frequency yet in a controlled state without sparks flying. Dameon calls this white lightning as it seems more pure and natural plus it is a very light blue bordering white in its color. Jutsu wise Dameon focuses and mixes all of this energy into his index finger and aims it at its target. If it hits it can pierce through B rank and lower armor and cause a 4” deep cut with 3rd degree burns. While this beam is within the opponents body it paralyzes their muscles and until the end of their next post. Dameon can keep the beam intact and use it as a cutting weapon. It's slashes being just as damaging. The cut is automatically cauterized on impact.
