Even the piercing shriek from just beside me was dulled out by the growing masses of undead horde beneath us, groaning each with a wretched and distinct sound based on the state of their own bodies. The scent of decay was almost nauseating as they crowded around the hospital, trying desperately to scale the walls of the building so that they could reach their delicious prey. I nodded towards the person who had cried out, signaling to the others to calm her down and restrain her, though the other survivors themselves weren't particularly at ease. Despite this, one of the men of the group worked up enough nerve to grab the other and sit them down, trying to prevent another breakdown before it caused his own.
The group on the rooftop were the results of my efforts to bring as many people as I could to safety. I hadn't succeeded in much, however, for the overwhelming number of these creatures would have proven too much for my ability. The seemingly endless wave of the walking dead had appeared to have poured forth straight from Hell itself, the opening of some otherworldly portal bringing with it endless legions of the damned things. And the worst part about the accursed husks were that they were relentlessness in their pursuit for blood.
As the man brought the other down to sit, albeit with great difficulty, I swiftly brought my hands together, nimbly positioning them as needed for my chakra to gather within my right arm. With a quick thrust of this arm forward, the action would be complete, the entire structure of my arm morphing into that of a wooden construct and extending towards the monsters below. The pike that was now my arm would split into two, then four, then eight, and then suddenly fifteen pikes, all piercing one of the targets below. With one fell swoop fifteen heads exploded from the force and size of the wooden spears piercing their skulls, and fifteen bodies collapsed to the ground, lifeless once and for all.
The wooden construct retracted, reverting now back to its original state. Though fifteen souls had been put to ease, there stood another hundred or so to take their place. Sooner or later they would indeed learn to climb, or use enough force to break in through the barricaded doors. I looked back to the panicked and fear-stricken faces of what was believed to be the last few survivors, and it appeared as though they had understood; we were simply outnumbered with no way out. I shook my head frantically, as if to say no, we'll make it out of here, but with the moaning horde below it seemed to be the complete opposite.
I returned my gaze to the monsters below, who appeared to have become furious with their inability to scale the walls. Their horrid cries were more prominent now than ever, and as hope itself was dwindling, it came back with an empowered presence as, in the distance, I saw a figure running towards us, scaling the rooftops in rapid approach. I threw my hands into the air, waving maniacally back and worth to try and grab the person's attention. After a moment or two of this I cupped my hands to my mouth in the hopes that my cry would be heard.
"Hey! I have survivors over here! HELP!"
Daijurin no Jutsu (Great Forest Technique) [50x13]
Rank: C
Type: Offensive.
Range: See special!
Handseals: 5.
Chakra: x2 Mid.
Special: Strength of wooden spikes depends on the user’s level of 'Wood Dominion'; range is equal to one's 'WD', halved. Main wood beam travels in a straight line, but will split into up to two spikes per use, plus one more each time retrained; however, upon the fourth retraining, chakra consumption will go up by one. Spikes can deviate up to 90 degrees from the main wood piece's travel path.
Description: After a few simple seals, the Mokuton user will changes one's own arm into big trees and use it to extend a large mass of spikes towards their target. Using chakra, the tissues are transformed into trees at the cellular level. Then, by activating the trees, stimulating them to grow rapidly, they lengthen at high speed and fork into many branches. These spikes can act both to impale his target and as a barrier to protect a comrade. Such is the strength of the stakes that it is said to be able to break through defenses of the same Rank or lower than the technique. When the technique is over, the trees fall off of the user's arm and the user will regain the use of his or her arms.
