Only one day has passed since Denkou had his belt in the Arena. His first real Challenge as a Shinobi. All other missions before that had been something simple minded and degrading to his own ability. None the less, he took them with his stride and easily accomplished them. Still he was only up to ‘D’ Rank missions and today was no different, except it posed more of a threat than the last one did.

Today was the challenge of clearing out several Packs of wolves have been lurking and attacking all those who come close to the Village. It was simple, cleave up the Canine beast and make it safe for travellers once more. Simple in words, it would prove more difficult as he is one and they are many. Still he had his plan in mind.

As the young Shinobi came close to the gates of the village he stopped dead in his tracks, crouching down and revealing the items that he held on him.

He had his two prized Daggers, still razor sharp just like the day when his father gave them two him. Five Shuriken holding adequately on his waist, ready to unleash their furry at any given moment of choice. Senbon, the deadly needles of the knight tucked away in his pouch, while his Giant Shuriken lay hidden on his back. A slice of raw meat concealed in a thin cardboard container to hide its smell. It was the prime item he was going to use plan. Accounting for all items on him, he began to head off out through the gates, heading toward the wilderness that surrounded the Village. The terrain was tough, but he was far tougher.

As he exited from the main village, his eyes glance over the surroundings. There were hills, rocks, mountains and trees. Each area possible held the position of the wolves. I think ill head to the woodlands first. He thought as he began to move in the desired location. It was not a glorious forest before him, but a large wooded area that covered the side of some of the mountainous areas.

[Denkou]

He passed his first tree and already his train Shinobi sense picked up on several things. He could see that some type of four legged animal had not long passed by here from tracks on the moist earth on the wooded lands floor. The second thing that came to his attention was the lack of sound. For such a covered area of lands with trees, there should have been some type of noise present, yet there was utter silence. His mind put two and two together, giving him the only logical answer.

”Wolves.” He spoke under his breath. He knew that the tracks had been some animals similar, if not a wolfs and that the lack of noise could only be accredited to a wolf hunting him. He had to be on his toes and alert, for wolves very rarely hunt alone.

Then it came, a sudden snap of a branch, the first real sound he had encountered since entering into the area. His eyes turned, his hand instinctively pulling one dagger free from its sheath and raised it upwards to defend himself. In a matter of seconds the pouncing wolf was before him, alone and hungry. His training kicked it, allowing him to react far greater than any other of the beast pray.

His free hand sharply rose up. Grasping the bottom jaw of the pouncing beast. His fingers locked around it as it forced the razor sharp jowls shut. The sudden strength of the jumping creature knocked Denkou back, but ultimately that would be its downfall. As he allowed himself to fall, his hand that held the dagger, placed itself between himself and the wolf, its blade pointed to the underbelly of the beast.

As the thud of the ground came, the ear piercing screech attempted to leap from the Wolfs jaws as the blade penetrated deeply into its gut. His hand still holding the beast jaw shut silenced its cry for the most part, allowing him to twist with the other wrist, killing the wolf on the spot. The brief struggle was over as quick as it started, leaving a lifeless corpse to roll off the top of the young Shinobi. One down, god knows how many more. He thought as he rose up from the moist ground. He knew the others couldn’t have been far off. So it was time to lay his trap.

[Denkou]

Boar, dog ram. The hand seals were each performed in quick succession in the blink of an eye. The Shinobi readied a technique that he had only recently mastered. In this situation, the technique used ideally by Denkou would prove to be the best for the situation. It was his highest Rank Jutsu so far that he had learned. An A-rank technique that allowed him to create a clone comprised solely of Raiton Chakra. As an A-rank technique, Denkou was still able to perform the jutsu effortlessly at a high level, even for a Genin. In a puff of static smoke his clone appeared next to him. Handing over the piece of raw meat that he had concealed in a container, Denkou left his clone so he could prepare elsewhere.

Denkou moved swiftly away from his clone, heading out through the numerous trees. With many jumps, he quickly propelled himself into the tree tops. He kept his clone in sight, so he could easily deal with the wolves that lurk in the land around.

Meanwhile the clone pulled the raw meat from the container, and quickly attached some kind of paper note on the back of the meat, before throwing the meat onto the ground. The clone then proceeded to drag the killed wolf away from the meet, slinging it by the side of one of the trees out of sight. He then continued to climb a tree closest to the meat. Now all that was needed was to sit and wait. The smell of the meat drifted through the air, its aim was to attract the pack so he could deal with them all at once.

Minutes passed until the first sound of life began to creep forwards from the woodlands. It was evident that the wolves had picked up on the meats sent and headed over to investigate. Quickly rushing into sight was a pack of four wolves, one behind the other, with the alpha male leading. Immediately they headed toward the meat, the alpha growled at his pack mates, telling them that he was the one going to have the fist bite. Sniffing the ground, his noise pressed up against the raw meat, with one other wolf either side of the Alpha. It seemed reluctant at fist, but eventually, it lead in for the leading bite.

Meanwhile, as Denkou watched from the confides of the upper trees, waiting for the exact time to unleash the first trap. Quickly throwing his hands together to create the single seal used to activated his next jutsu, resulted in the start of Denkou’s assault.

Instantly the note which was attached to the bottom of the raw meat exploded. The fierce blast capture the Alpha directly from the inside of its jaws and spreading through its body. The effects were near instantaneous death. Bone fragment and small amounts of energy that the blast unleash began to scathe, burn and throw back the two at either side of the dead alpha. Growls and high pitched shrieks echoed in the woods as the Wolves felt pain.

As the explosion rippled through the first wolf, that was the cue for Denkou’s clone to attack. He lunged from the tree heading straight for the wolf which was closest to him. As it flew backwards from the blast, the clone landed from the tree just ahead of it. Unsheathing one of his daggers, his other arm extended, readying to catch the wolf as it travelled. As contact was made, his arm wrapped around the head of the beast, while his dagger south out its heart, silently killing the wolf before it could fully come to a stand still from the blast.

All that remained was two wolves, one injured from the blast, while another lay at the back, healthy and furious with Denkou at the same time. It snarled as it looked on at the clone, while the other began to recover from the attack and limp by its side.

The two remaining wolves snarled and grit their teeth as they gazed upon the clone. They inched closer with a slow and steady walk, they meant business. "Bring it!" The clone called out as it began to charge towards the wolves. In the same instance, the wolves began to charge at the clone. It was all too perfect. Denkou had planned for it all. His clone was now bait, while he planned on moving his plan forwards.

His hands quickly began performing the much needed seals for his Jutsu. Four simple handseals, easily performed in two seconds. After the release of the last seal, his hands moved out in front of him, one pulling up and one pushing down, creating an ark like shape before him. As his hands moved, Raiton Chakra was left in its wake, crafting a Box out of his elemental release. After completing the Raiton bow, both hands met again in the middle, one hand grasping the bow, while the other pulled back, forming an arrow comprised of Raiton.

His vision focused, sharpened as he looked on at the two charging wolves. He eyed up the healthy looking beast, while his clone moved toward the injured one. The clone jumped forward, blade unsheathed and ready to kill. Simultaneously, Denkou released his grip. The arrow shot forward with blistering speed, heading directly towards the wolf. Two simultaneous screams were let loose as one wolf succumbs to the arrow and the other succumbs to a dagger to the head.

The still living wolf bounced back several yards, hitting the floor stunned from the attack. The beast left week and defenceless was open for assault. The clone slowly paced over, flashing its blade towards the eyes of the beast, before swiftly ending its life. Not a single sound came from its jowls as the beast slipped into the land of the dead. The pack had been dealt with.

He had headed back toward the village since dealing with the wolves, he had cleared the land and it was safe for him to return with the mission completed. He could see the gates just in the distance, yet all was not as it seemed. Out of nowhere, a sudden rush of 3 wolves cam bursting from out of nowhere. Each one simultaneously attacking Denkou who was unable to defend from their cunning three way attack. Fangs and claws all etched into the skin of the boy, that ultimately would lead to the wolves defeat.

In a sudden burst, an electrical explosion engulfed all three. Their fur stood on end as the shockwave of electricity surged through their bodies. Each one succumbing to the stunning effect that the Raiton generated clone delivered.

Again his plan had worked. Denkou knew there had been more than one pack of wolves in the area, thus he made his clone wonder back while he remained hidden using Kakuremino no Jutsu. This allowed him to creep 3 meters behind his slow moving clone. The wolves could not see him, and ran straight into the trap.

With out a moments notice, Denkou burst out from his simple jutsu, revealing himself and heading straight for the pack. Both blades drawn, he began to swiftly carve up the wolves, killing each one with a quick and simple slice. There throats gushed with blood as main arteries had been severed. Life quickly faded away from them, until the bodies fell to the ground lifeless. The packs had been dealt with, and it was time to head back to the village.
