She did not seem to be in any hurry to avoid him as the smoke had clearly made things different, he took some time before reaching the smoke to infuse his chakra towards his clone who had his hands full with the mysterious Lamya. It seems he must have hit her since he heard a grunt as he now had her current location as being stationary. Then in order to throw off his opponent he spoke to give her his general location as he then produced some basic clones ahead of himself just in case something went wrong, he heard her announce a reply that no one can slay her since she commands all demons. The moment he heard her speaking he felt threatened by her words and drew forth Tsubakiri using the generic sealing technique, as he used the weight of the blade and swung lifting himself upwards so that he was no longer in line with any of his clones. The first clone to pop out of the smoke got pierced for an untimely demise as he then appeared from the top of the smoke flying through the air as he watched the sprig which was clearly another plant like technique, he had been learning a bit of this clan but it was now clear that the Senju clan did not just use wood, they used trees in general as was clear from the sprig. .She also seemed over zealous not even hesitating to split out two branches to pierce towards where the clones legs were, the puff of smoke after the death of the clone probably gave away his plans.
All this madness he realised this woman was not like what he had heard previously, he heard that she might be a nice lady who ran the main Konoha hospital, but right now he was fighting against a mad woman who looks more like she would kill everyone inside the hospital just to heal them up again for her amusement. He began to feel that Risu must be really tough to be able to deal with this everyday as he landed she had already left the pillar flying into the air as he looked up, the other four useless clones just standing around as they yawned, their presence easily noticable since the real one had the sword, and ofcourse basic academy clones can not really use anything other than to be decoys. He found it somewhat disturbing as she seemed like a vulture circling her prey, her wings were beautiful but she seemed to be in some pain when he first sort her launch herself into the air, was she hurt badly or was she tired, did this jutsu of hers have some major drawback or was she just trying to get him to drop his guard down. He then looked around himself as he was surrounded by what roughly looked like one thousand needles, his only option for avoiding this would be to jump through the only opening at the top, but considering he can not really dodge in mid air again anytime soon he took a deep breath as that second of thought passed him by.
He watched as she closed her fist and that was when the water needles seemed to all be heading towards him, as this looked like the end a large amount of steam shot forth in every direction as it was unclear what had happened, as the steam began to clear you could see a barrier of lightning as he stood there with a cold look on his face as his hair stood up slightly from the static charge built up from it as he stood there and then before he could speak to tell her to stop, she had dove down with two more sprigs aimed towards his shoulders as he began to think to himself as he remembered something from long ago.
***Memory/Flashback***"Do i have to kill it?", as the woman looked coldly to her student and replied. "Ren, if you show mercy for this man eater, how will you ever call yourself a shinobi. This bear has killed hundreds of our people and it is consumed by a rage which happened from people eating her children. You must finish it off, and ofcourse if the bear kills you then we will just replace you with the next student. This is not a child's game, this is the bloody mist and there is no room to allow any other beasts other than us to roam free. Now go!!!"
As the bear recovered after having rammed into the tree and hurt its head, the bear dashed with great speed as the boy just barely dodged, his shirt being torn to shreds in that single strike, just before he could fight back the bear already prepared the next strike, he managed to replace himself with the log he used earlier only for the log to explode from the brute force of the bear as he panted heavily, he then watched as the bear noticed a rabbit and then grabbed it in its jaws and tore it to shreds and devoured it whole. This made him finally realise that when facing a beast, you must yourself become a beast. He stopped showing his fatigue and the only emotion he showed was a cold anger as he glared at the beast tossing several kunai at the bear who knocked the kunai back as he picked up a sharp thick shard of the log that was destroyed earlier and then held it to his side like a sword.
"This is not a hunt", as the bear growled some blood from its shoulder, as one of the kunai managed to graze it.
"This is not a mission", as the bear began to pick up speed charging for him like a monster
"This is ...", as the bear leaped at him he dashed towards it inorder to avoid its two bear paws which were just barely passed as part of his shoulder was grazed as he thrust the piece of wood into the chest of the beast. The beast wailed as the woman who had instructed him was in shock as the boy finished his sentence, "this is the bloody mist", tired out from the fight the bear fell on top of him. The instructor was impressed as she petted the bear while he was no longer conscious. "I will need to replace you with a stronger bear, but this kid surprised me, he was kind too if you just did nothing he would have let you get away, his not cut out to be a shinobi but his talent is far too great for us to let him go".
***Memory/FlashbackEnd***The sprigs had been broken apart as the mad woman was heading towards him like a demonic beast with blood thirst oozing from her. "Raiton Jibashi", as lightning would strike directly at her, from this close there was no more room for dodging or avoiding the attack not to mention the fact that the area itself still had drops of water here and there as her movements would have a weight added to them as he would thrust his blade into her gut at a depth of one inch and would then twist the blade to increase the pain. He then followed up with a cold expression on his face as he was now prepared to unveil his strongest jutsu, he gave her a reply, "This is your last chance", as his chakra was flowing wildly, it was clear he was going to bring this fight to an end if she still intended to fight as she would be paralyzed with his blade in her gut most likely. How would she deal with the true power of the Little Demon of the Bloody Mist. He chose a technique that also disrupts her technique so regardless she was now grounded with his blade in her unless she had a way to get passed all this.
The woman behind the mask seemed to not be doing much even though he was still not certain how she would fight. She seemed to be trembling with not even a second having passed yet. They say that strong fighters have the ability to react in mere fractions of a second, as she shouted that he was a brat and that he was in fact mocking her. Amateur tactics from an insolent brat was really insulting as he watched her stop his slash with a large dense mud wall which basically meant he should have sent the real one this side, he had nothing to fight against that giant wall of mud which must have been Doton, he also saw this as a chance while her vision was blocked as he spat out some water before dashing to hide behind some of the debree and rubble caused by the number of destructive jutsu used earlier on the landscape. As the new clone stood there waiting for her, she came out from the side of the mud wall as she seemed to be up to something as the clone just looked at her very observantly. Closing in on her intended target as she began to create a few hand signs before releasing a jutsu the boy had not seen before, as the boy looked around him either side he was surrounded by two earth snakes as he was interrupted during his attempt to cast a jutsu, trapped up to his neck in a concrete like earth as he glared at her.
As her target was captured she began to mention how it did not matter since he was nothing but a clone and that medical jutsu could also be used to kill and not just heal. As she dashed forth for the kill, as she passed by the hiding clone he slashed at her following up with a dash in the same direction as her so that she could not avoid him, he was locked onto her and would not miss the close range strike, whether she had a skill to fight from this position or if she even knew he was behind her was unclear. He would slash low to top so that there would be no ducking or diving. He would not give her anytime to form anymore of those pesky handseals while the other clone just watched. She had a choice, fight back against the real clone which may sound strange but was currently the situation she was in. Also his timing was made even better by the fact that the clone had actually timed a blink when she dashed towards him to give him the chance to react, this was not the strongest or even the most original of tactics but it was simple. When out of view set a trap, when your enemy strikes you strike back hard, or strike against their back hard.

Name: Lightning Release: Plasma Barrier (雷遁・荷電障壁殻 ~ Raiton: Purazuma Bōru)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: A
Type: Defensive
Element: Raiton
Range: Short (1m)
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: Instantaneous
Cooldown: 7 posts
Description: The user produces a highly concentrated field of electricity which forms a barrier of raiton chakra in a 1m sphere around them. Any enemy that comes into physical contact with the sphere will be shocked and suffer minor 2nd degree burns at the point of contact. The barrier is capable of defending against a single S rank jutsu, 2 A rank jutsu, or 3 B rank jutsu before breaking.
Name: Lightning Release: Electromagnetic Murder (雷遁・磁場死 ~ Raiton: Jibashi)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Element: Raiton
Range: 10m
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: Instantaneous
Cooldown: 5 posts
Description: The user unleashes a violent surge of electricity from their hands at 25m/s capable of cutting through solid rock and leaving the victim with major second degree burns at the point of contact. Targets caught in the jutsu experience an excruciatingly painful shock, forcing them to immediately lose their grip on anything they were grabbing as well as cancel any jutsu they were performing or maintaining. This jutsu can be used in conjunction with suiton, allowing for an increase in range by forcing the raiton to travel along the surface of the water up to 50m.
Name: Water Release: Water Clone Technique (水遁・水分身の術 ~ Suiton: Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Element: Suiton/Water
Range: Clones cannot travel more than 30m away from the user.
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: Until clones are destroyed or cancelled
Cooldown: 4 posts
Description: The Water Clone Jutsu is similar to the Shadow Clone Jutsu except it creates clones out of water that have one-tenth of the original user's chakra - taken after the initial activation cost of this technique has been deducted. Like other solid clone techniques, the clones can be used to perform tasks the user is unable or unwilling to do for themselves. The range of the clone is limited however, as it can not travel very far from the original body without losing control. Like other clone techniques, if the water clones are injured enough they will revert back to normal water. Water clones are capable of only using suiton jutsu provided they have enough chakra to cast it. Regular jutsu cooldowns apply - if a technique is used by one clone, it cannot immediately be used by another clone. A maximum of six clones may be created at any one time. The clone automatically disperses when it runs out of chakra, or when hit by any attack that can cause the equivalence of a C rank technique in physical damage [major bruising, 1-2 inch cuts, etc.] or a C-rank/2 D-Rank offensive jutsu. The user may willingly disperse a clone - returning any chakra the clone has left to the user - but this can only be done under the condition that the clone is not under direct attack. Clones which have been dispersed by other means - ie. taking damage - do not return any chakra to the user.

Name: Generic Sealing Technique (Han'yō Fūin no Jutsu ~ 汎用封印の術)

Rank: E.
Type: Supplementary.
Element: None.
Range: Direct contact.
Specialty: Fūinjutsu.
Duration: Instantaneous.
Cooldown: None.
Description: This technique is a standard ninja skill which allows a ninja to summon an assortment of items that have been stored using fūinjutsu. Scrolls are the most common choice for item storage. When needed, the owner will activate the seals releasing their item or weapon of choice, either on the ground or in-hand.
The jutsu can be used to either store an item in something or to summon it from something, but it can’t do both.
This jutsu can only seal the user's items, or items that were stolen from a target for more than 3 posts, or items stolen from a KO'd or killed character.
This jutsu has a variable chakra cost depending on the item summoned from the scroll/other item.
E-Rank: Zero Chakra.
D-Rank: Zero Chakra.
C-Rank: Five Chakra.
B-Rank: Five Chakra.
A-Rank: Ten Chakra.
S-Rank: Ten Chakra.
SS-Rank: Fifteen Chakra.
The items used to seal something with this technique need to bought in the item shop.
Name: Substitution Technique (変わり身の術 ~ Kawarimi no Jutsu)
Canon/Custom: Canon.
Rank: E.
Type: Supplementary.
Element: None.
Range: One prepared item in the user's clear line of sight.
Speciality: Ninjutsu.
Duration: 1 post preparation. Infinite postponement, Instant activation.
Cooldown: 6 posts after activation.
Description: The Substitution Technique is an age-old skill which enables the user to evade the effects of an attack by switching with an item in the area. (The item---or substantial clone---used for a Substitute must be as large as the user's torso, and must be prepared at least 1 post in advance by infusing it with 5 chakra.) Activating this jutsu for another 5 chakra, the ninja moves at untraceable speed for just a moment, and the item does so as well to take the user's place; the ninja leaves behind a flickering after-image for a second, which, if damaged, releases the chakra which holds it in place in a small smoke cloud, revealing the nature of the technique and the item they have switched with. Higher-rank ninjas' afterimages are able to show some of the signs of natural impact as if it were an actual human, if only for a very short period, before 'poofing'. The user coming out of the technique creates a similar audio and visual cue with a small cloud of translucent smoke and a 'poofing' sound on appearance in the location of the item they Substituted with. This technique causes the user to move at speeds untraceable to human perception, and therefore even the user cannot coordinate attacks during the Kawarimi, or activate any other jutsu. They, however, can maneuver near someone and then attack them after the fast-movement is finished.
