After the short moment of time she had, Suteki stopped at about 16 meters from the wall. The young girl noticed that the monolith she erected was no longer being attacked. Nozomi was certainly up to something. Though, so was she so she decided to wait for her opponent to make the next action. Since Suteki couldn't see her opponent, it was pointless to attack with the sand on the other side of the wall, after all, she could easily miss the attack. Sand continued to pour from her gourd around her feet. She watched, time seeming to slow down within those few seconds. Than her opponent showed her face from the other side and a huge spike ripped towards the enemy, plunging into the enemy, than another showed.
Clones, a good use of a diversion. Though, with so many fakes, she wouldn't be able to tell whom was the real enemy. She didn't need to play that disadvantageous of a game. The young girl knew she could easily be out flanked by a fake and end up playing into the enemies hands. A horrible game of 2+ cat and mouse. She would have to stand her ground and take out any fakes that would show up, and just be extremely defensive in this situation. Perhaps an opportunity would also present itself?
She was to surprised by the other one to release another sand spike in time, but the diversion worked in Nozomi's favor for now. One down, another running just away from the left over stream. She was just about to jump away, returning the the withdraw stratagy as she saw another figure appear at the top of the monolith. Chances pointed towards it being the real Nozomi, though she just made a critical mistake. Nozomi (clone) jumped off the top of the monolith towards her, and was free falling down tot he ground. Suteki moved the small amount of sand in the area together, grinding the ground into a powder than formed a spike reaching up towards the next target. The spike was a sure hit as the figure couldn't maneuver in mid air to avoid it.
To her anguish the other target was still around, and she would deal with that one as well, using her Senbon. Though, if this one turned out to be the real Nozomi, she had just let her get within 8 meters of her. The sand swirled below her feet, a shell starting to form in front of her. She grabbed four of her senbon and tossed them towards Nozomi (clone) in a spread out horizontal formation to try and hit her no matter. The senbon wouldn't kill her, but with the shield up, she could hit her with a sand spike as she made contact with the shield.
That was when she noticed the other target creep out from the Monolith.
"Damn.", she uttered, thinking it was another possible fake. She started to form the sand behind her, and would repeat the possible attack with senbon and spike on this one, though this fake was extremely fast. More sand poured out quicker this time from her gourd, forming the remainder shield all around her this time. Suteki tossed more 2 senbon out towards the faster target, unable to grab more in the panic.
Nozomi got right on top of her in the next second and a large spike would form out as the target tossed a punch right into a small opening in the shield. Several petals managed to make it inside, scratching her arm up that was extended from tossing the senbon, easily tearing her glove up, though some of her hand was protected partial from the kunai and senbon held within. Along with her arm, a small portion of her side was pelted, a few holes within her clothing. The rest pelted the wall of sand keeping her somewhat safe. Several strikes could be heard outside upon the wall, one after another.
'This wall might not hold up.' The pain in her arm was decent, but nothing she couldn't fight through. She raised her hands together and dished out some hand signs as the dome of sand was now packed full of mist.
More blows against the sand defense as several lightning jutsu pelted the dome and it started to crack as each shot hit it. She could feel the mist shift and exit the holes. Her defense was quickly coming to an end. Suteki jumped back into her shield of sand and collapsed it as mist poured out through the back, going back 15 meters and to the sides 8 meters. As last shot hit the dome, shattering what little dome was around the front and the mist poured forward going out 8 meters. The rest of the mist just covered the area thicker than usual, or dispersed slightly when exiting the front of the dome.
Suteki jumped back away from where the attacks were being made, than sideways towards the edge of the cloud in a general direction closer to the center of the arena, as fast as possible. Her opponent could probably be within the cloud, perhaps just barely, but hopefully the cloud would confuse her for a moment as she regained herself. Hopefully Nozomi would be on edge, and have some difficulty seeing, thinking an attack was coming from ahead or close by giving her a little time.
Suteki hoped that she managed to remove all the clones prior to being attacked, if not than she was losing by a greater margin than she had wanted. Losing, that was her current state. The young girl couldn't be sure if the spike had hit her enemy, though it seemed like it would have before the dome completely closed. If not, than with the wounds on her arm, she was at a fair disadvantage.
She needed to end this tactic. She saw what the girl had to dish out, and was now in a fairly poor spot. Every jutsu she had seen before, plus a few new ones were used, not including that academy clone jutsu. She couldn't have had to many more jutsu to pull from. It was her turn to attack.
Suteki moved along one edge of the cloud running as fast as her tiny legs could take her. She ran straight ahead so she could get a good view of her opponent if she were on the other side of the cloud, and have some distance from her Soon enough though she would make visual contact with her opponent. Her opponent would be about 13m away from her. If she wasn't watchful, Suteki might have just been unnoticed. A torrent of wind would start to form behind her. Suteki made a few hand signs and along with this wind forming behind her, she would breath wind into her undamaged hand and as the wind swept passed her, charge towards her opponent.
The wind rushed passed her, hitting her opponent before. The wind would possible knock her back, and hopefully onto the ground. Either way she ran as fast as she could than jumped along with the wind, using it to gain speed and height just outside of 10m. The little girl would than launch the vortex at 7m. She would unleash the small furious vortex of wind straight towards her opponent's chest if she still stood unless.. If unnoticed or knocked over onto the ground, she would take the chance to aim for the head, hopefully knocking her opponent out, flat on to there back if still standing, or making them dizzy and confused. The attack would be complimented by another vortex, than another, each aimed at Nozomi's chest or available best position and each at a closer distance as she soared through the air. If she had her way, the last shot would be point blank, and straight at her face, complimented by a headbutt and tackle, even better if she was on the ground, body slamming the girl. Though with her lightweight, it probably wouldn't do to much damage, though the gourd might help some.
The girls enemy was a taijutsu user, so it wouldn't be to prudent to get to close for to long. If all things went according to plan, she would roll away and jump back as fast as she could, gaining some distance from Nozomi, and running back towards her monolith, gather back some sand that she had dispersed before. Though, it would be luck to have everything go according to plan.
It was useless to hide the fact that she could control the sand now. Perhaps if needed, she might be able to use it, or maybe persuade her opponent from attacking. The girl breathed with a harshness, though keeping her stance near the edge of the monolith, leaning on it slightly. Blood soaked her clothing, though most of it couldn't be seen against the dark blue, but a wet streak could be seen on the earth monolith if close enough. Suteki would spread the sand out and gather more from behind and in front, except for the wet sand that the girl had soaked, gathering more and more trying to seem ominous. Suteki was breathing hard, tired from the expenditure of chakra and energy that she just dished out within that onslaught. The young girl took in a deep breath, trying to control her breathing,
"We both put up quite a bit of a fight huh. It seems these people got there moneys worth."Suteki would bow to her opponent, though keeping a close eye on her. Suteki breathed in again, slowing her heavy breathing to normal and again she spoke loudly, slightly slow and with a murderous deepness to her voice,
"Though,..I am going to take this fight one way...or another."The proctor would move closer to keep a closer eye on the action, this fight was coming to an end soon enough. The crowd was on edge to see this fight progressing fairly well, and with quite a bit of theatrical area based effects. You could never get this much excitement from watching something similar from a movie screen.

Name: Wind Release: Great Breakthrough (Fūton: Daitoppa ~ 風遁・大突破)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Element: Fūton
Range: 25 metres. Created one metre behind the user.
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: 1 post
Cooldown: 5 posts
Description: Wind Release: Great Breakthrough is a relatively simple technqiue where the user creates a sudden intense burst of wind. This technique requires no hand seals or physical action to perform, and they can choose which direction the burst of wind shall travel towards. It does however take a few seconds from willing it to happen to the burst of wind occuring, and the burst of wind is always created around the user's body in such a way that the wind hits them too. For example, if you want the wind to fire in the direction you're facing, it will be created behind you, meaning you will be inside the burst yourself. This attack can knock aside any D rank or lower projectiles flying opposed to it as well as greatly improve the velocity of those flying inside of it [travelling at 10 m/s] in the direction of the wind to a maximum distance of 5 meters and can send anyone who is not using Supernatural Walking Practice flying backwards 5 meters. In addition, a katon technique of at least C rank can set this burst of wind ablaze, causing it to form a massive raging torrent and increasing burn effects one degree higher.

Element: Fūton
Range: 25 metres
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: 1 post
Cooldown: 4 posts
Description: This technique allows the user to breathe wind-infused chakra into the palm of their hand, shaping it into a small, whirlwind-like sphere. Then the user will shoot it at their opponent. This technique is very fast and powerful, travelling at 15 m/s in the direction it is shot at. A direct blow to the head will cause a Grade 1 concussion and daze the victim, reducing their movement speed by one rank tier for 2 posts. Impact with other sections of the body can cause major external bruising, as well as shredding the skin of the affected surface, coating it with countless tiny, 1/2 inch deep cuts. Upon activation, only a single sphere is made. Additional spheres can be made at a cost of -5 chakra each, with a maximum of two additional spheres. Each sphere must be breathed into the palm of the user's hand and then tossed. However, additional spheres are only at half power, and must both be used in order to achieve the same effects as the first sphere.
