THE HUNT: Part 2
The two males stared at each other; the prisoner still held the girl hostage. Silence continued as the two waited for someone to do anything that would move them from their current stagnant stare-down. Finally, the prisoner spoke,
"You must think I'm stupid; as a shinobi you can still use chakra, making you just as dangerous without a weapon. You could possess elemental ninjutsu for all I know!" Kenji let out a sigh as he could tell this was going to be more difficult than he expected; he was keen to say the least. That characteristic alone would make him a difficult opponent if they had to fight. The Chuunin wouldn't have to worry about causing a ruckus in this isolated area. "Turn around, walk forward and leave your wallet! NOW!" Kenji raised his hands and reached in his back pocket; pretending to go for his wallet,
"All right, I'll do whatever; just remain calm. This is..." "SHUT UP AND DO GOD DAMN IT!!" Lowering his head he reached behind him; and formed three hand seals in secret, he then grabbed his wallet and held it up. He positioned his hand so that he would see the back of his Glove of Reflection; and once he looked he would be caught in his Genjutsu.
"Got him" Kenji threw his wallet to his side. The prisoner looked right at him the whole time; which made his Genjutsu even more effective. As the prisoner saw Kenji turn around and walk away; the real Kenji was walking toward the prisoner.
The blonde haired criminal threw the girl to the side and ran forward, but little did he know he was running right into Kenji. A straight right hand extended waiting for the prisoner's face; his head was rocked back. Upon contact the illusion was broken and he looked up to see Kenji running back to his katana. A familiar crackling sound alerted Kenji of a lightning jutsu; a wave of electricity was coming for Kenji. It didn't appear to be too powerful so he extended his hands; planning to use his gloves to protect him from the lightning jutsu. He could tell that the gloves absorbed quite a lot of the technique but it still did damage. Still on his feet Kenji move to pick up his katana but the prisoner advanced with impressive speed; he was almost instantly within striking range.
"Change of plans" Kenji weaved two hand seals; and once he made contact with the prisoner by any means he would catch him in him in yet another Genjutsu. Kenji leaned back to avoid a strong kick; he tapped the side of his leg projecting himself further away decreasing the foe's reflexes. Kenji then threw a weak quick punch that appeared to be slightly out of range; connecting with the criminal's nose once again.
"What the hell is going? Must be Genjutsu... but when, he's already caught me twice." He heard him say to himself; Kenji retrieved his katana and two shuriken; he proceeded tho launch the two shuriken at him and sheathed his katana. The prisoner easily avoided the shuriken by leaping into the air in a somersault. Once he released the shuriken he took off towards the prisoner and jumped up with the prisoner and was right in front of his.
Kenji spewed a plume of wind chakra from his mouth encasing the prisoner as he lied vulnerable in the air. They both landed, only a few feet separated them. Kenji began to smile...
"Stings doesn't it." The prisoner's eyes began to widen as the fear of seeing his flesh burn was getting the best of of him. Then, like a fog horn the prisoner let out a scream but not because of the Genjutsu. The prisoner had broke his own finger and quickly molded chakra in his hand and clubbed Kenji across the face knocking him to the ground with katana still in hand.
"Damn it, I was too confident in my Genjutsu" he thought as he lied on the ground after getting hit by what felt like a mountain. Looking up he saw the prisoner fleeing at high speed; but if there was anyone who could keep up in a foot race it was Kenji and he took off after him in an all out chase after picking up four kunai.
"Damn he's fast, I should just be able to catch him." Kenji closed the gap to about ten meters; he then made five hand seals and released a gust of wind at the target's back. The prisoner collapsed as his balance and perception was stolen. Kenji soared through the sky and landed on the prisoner's back with his knee driving through the center of his back.
"That should slow you down." Within the next hour the prisoner was back in Atho's Keep.

Name:Heavenly Spiral
Canon/Custom: Custom
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Element: Wind
Range: 0-10 meters
Specialty: Genjutsu
Duration: 1 post
Cooldown: 3 post
Description: The user makes five hand seals, and then does a thrusting motion releasing wind infused chakra in the direction of his opponent. If the opponent is hit by the gust of wind infused chakra, he will then be caught in the genjutsu. Once the opponent is hit he will begin to experience his body swirling, taking the shape of a spiral. During the duration of the genjutsu, the opponent will lose almost all sense of his surroundings making him extremely vulnerable. After the duration of the genjutsu the opponent will have no lingering effects. One of the disadvantages of this genjutsu is the short duration. As a result, the user must act quickly if he wants to capitalize on his opponent's disoriented state. The user also must be relatively close to his opponent, so as the user attempts five hand seals and a thrust he leaves himself vulnerable.
Name: Acidic Cloud

Rank: C-S

Element: Wind
Range: 2-15 meters
Specialty: Genjutsu
Duration: 2 posts
Cooldown: 7 posts
Description: Kenji performs one hand seal and proceeds to mold/concentrate wind chakra in the back of his throat, slightly sharpening it giving it a prickly texture. He then spews the wind out in a cloud that encases the opponent as well as triggers the genjutsu. Once the opponent feels the tingling breeze and is in the cloud they will be caught in the genjutsu. This genjutsu affects the person’s sense of touch and vision; they will begin to see parts of their body burning and melting away, causing a great deal of trauma and usually leaving them vulnerable during the duration of the genjutsu. They will experience great discomfort and focus the majority of their attention on their eroding body. Lesser skilled shinobi must trigger this genjutsu from extremely close range making it somewhat difficult to enact; also, they are limited to how much of the foe’s body they can trick the user into “melting” away. Extremely skilled shinobi can trigger this genjutsu from mid-range, increasing its accessibility; they can also make the opponent see their entire body erode, causing extreme trauma that is capable of incapacitation.
C- The acidic cloud only travels two meters, forcing the user to get in close range making them vulnerable. A C-rank Acidic cloud can only manage to get the opponent to see his arms melt away; causing trauma resulting in a -30% decrease in reaction time and speed during the genjutsu. The opponent will also find it difficult to use his arms, making blocking, punching, throwing, and initiating jutsus that requires hand seals very difficult. This jutsu also has lingering effects due to the trauma, causing a -20% decrease in speed and reaction time for three posts. This level of Acidic Cloud is best used with a distraction that allows the user to position themselves behind the opponent, like a substitution. Contact will not cancel the genjutsu.

Range: 10-20 meters

Description: User makes three hand seals. A reflective surface is needed to trigger the Genjutsu (kunai, sword, mirror, etc.)and if the opponent looks at the reflective surface he will be caught in the Genjutsu. At this point the opponent sees everything in his line of sight and 20 meters out as the complete opposite. If the user actually has his back facing his opponent with a kunai in his right hand; the opponent will see the user facing him with a kunai in left hand. Another example: If user runs towards opponent, the opponent will see the user running away. The biggest disadvantage of this illusory technique is its limited range. The illusion only exists in the opponent's line of sight, if the user falls into his opponent's peripheral vision, the illusion will be broken. Therefore, it behooves the user to act quickly. Also, if the user's actual position ever exceeds 20 meters from his opponent, the illusion will be canceled. Same goes for projectiles. Henceforth, it would be in the user's best interest to cast the illusion well within 20 meters from his opponent. This genjutsu once, casts, goes well with an added distraction such as a smoke/flash bomb.
The genjutsu doesn't completely alter one sense; therefore, causes little change in opponent's chakra, making it extremely difficult for sensory type ninja of C-rank and below to sense it. Also, if user makes contact with his opponent, including projectiles, during genjutsu, the illusion will be canceled upon contact. Genjutsu costs -10 chakra perform and drains -5 chakra during second post.

Element: N/A
Range: 0-15 meters
Specialty: Genjutsu
Duration: 3 post
Cooldown: 6 post
Description: User casts an illusion that shifts himself 3 inches away from his opponent. After the two required hand seals the Genjutsu is then triggered by making contact with the opponent, via punch, kick, tap, push, etc. By pushing himself away, it gives the opponent less reaction time to oncoming strikes and projectiles. The user suffers a 20% decrease in their reaction time. The main disadvantage of this genjutsu is the fact that the illusion only exists in front of the opponent. If the opponent ever changes his field of vision by a complete 90 degrees, the illusion will be broken. Therefore, user needs to act quickly. Genjutsu cost -10 chakra to perform and -5 chakra per post.
