A small training session...

The young Hokage stepped out onto the dirt field, out of uniform. He wore his original Uchiha attire; his black, long-sleeve shirt with the Uchiha symbol on the front and the white spikes traveling around it and down his arms. He wore a headband around his neck and black pants. He wore his normal black sandals. Hinin prepared himself mentally as he had done so many times over. He casually tossed his hand out in the ready position then closed his eyes, taking a few deep breaths. He then smiled, picturing the full lay of the land. The trees grew in a perfect circle around this field entirely made of dirt, as it had for centuries. He then, started meditatively moving his hands in different positions, practicing his form.

Kota and Notaru hid within the forest of the grainy grounds watching Hinin from the shade. Kota was garbed in his leather war equipment and Notaru was sated likewise. He leaned against a tree as his companion laid in the dirt, enjoying his rest under the shade. "He really doesn't make a bad HoKage. And with that Sharingan(THIS IS HOW YOU SPELL IT!!!) he is more valuable then most of my ANBU to begin with. Born with natural talent..." He stretched his back, allowing the variation of spaces between bone fragments to pop out the air. "Ugggh, that felt good."

He smiled, stopped, and opened his eyes. He turned towards the two and said "Hey you two. I know you are there. Come on out. " He crossed his arms and waited for his watchers to step out. "Why not a friendly spar. I won't even use the Sharingan unless I need it. "

Kota stepped out from the canopy of trees but Notaru stayed behind to enjoy his time to relax. "Sure, I suppose it wouldn't hurt." He pulled the scythe sword from his back and held the scythe in his right hand while keeping the sword in his left, the strong yard of chains dangling between.

He grinned. "Since you are using weapons I suppose I should as well. " He slowly unsheathed his kitanas and held them out, taking a strong pose. "Ready?"

"Aye." he made a spiral motion with his left handed sword and then planted his feet firmly, preparing for an assault.

He took two small steps in an almost wobbly motion then he took two more, more strengthened this time. He suddenly shot off in a full on sprint, clearing the distance between them in moments. He turned the kitanas to the blunted edges with each, then let the first one fly out of his hand at full speed, throwing it directly towards Kota's head. If he didn't dodge, the sword would fly within an inch exactly of his left ear. With the second blade, Hinin swung as fast as he could with the blunted edge towards Kota's stomach. This was meant to test his ground and skill. Hinin wasn't swinging at full speed. If the attack hit, it would impale Kota in the stomach.

Kota quickly read his attacks and released the left handed sword as he spun it by the chain catching Hinin's blade stopping the speed and spinning it in the air. Kota's blade stabbed into the dirt by his side as Hinin's landed in the palm of his left hand. He tuen promptly deflected Hinin's oncoming attack with his own blade and then ended his turn by tossing Hinin's blade, catching it by the blade and offered it back, "I believe this is yours."

He smiled. "Nice counter." He took the blade and moved around Kota and took his sword back, now reequipping himself with his dual blades. He decided to take the more defensive role this time. He backed up a fairly small distance, moving his left foot behind and his right foot in a striking position, aimed straight forward. "Your turn."

He sighed, "If you insist." He yanked the scythe up in turn pulling his sword from the ground with the chain and using this as a distraction he tossed a shuriken with extream accurassy before darting forwards behind the thrown weapon and tossed another shrunken left of the first then he himself dashed right in an attempt to catch him off guard with his scythe.

Hinin would smile at this but in the same instant, he jumped into the air, doing a front flip off of the shurikans. He pushed himself higher into the air, avoiding the attack all together. He then saw a chance to counter but decided there was no need. He landed a few feet behind Kota, completely unharmed. "Close one. I see I made the right choice."

He chuckled at his mistake, "Now I see my error." He glanced back at his comrade who was sunning in the opening of trees in the woods beside them. "Usually Nota has my back."
Notaru hummed under his breath then spoke for the first time since knowing Hinin, "Well, you can't always expect me to protect your back." His voice was deep and loud but clear in his words, it also seemed to have a knowing tone.

"True." Said Kota with an amused voice.

"I suppose it is my turn now. " He said this as he slammed the swords into the ground, lifting himself into the air. He then pulled the swords up from the ground with him and threw them back into the ground on each side of Kota. They would stick perfectly in the ground presicely three centimeters from Kota's big toes. He then came down with a strong kick that would knock Kota in the face and to the ground if he is caught off guard by the swords if it hit.

He spun the blade of his chain around causing the daggers thrown at him to rebound away and then grasped the hilt of his own blade as the man came flying towards him. He swung his scythe at him, catching the heel of his shoe; being accurate as to not wound his enemy if the counter made contact; if it would hit, Hinin would be thrown back to the ground and Kota would pounce and stop the point of his head directly and centimeter from the skin around Hinin's neck.

Hinin saw the counter and made his counter to the counter. He shot his fist down, switching his position in the air to a punching motion. He shot the fist down hard and fast, If the hit made contact, it would knock Kota down hard. He then pulled three kunia from his pouch with his free hand and let them fly down towards the feet of Kota. This way, even if the attack didn't make contact, he still would not have a well counter attack to make.

Once the man had shifted his position in the air, Kota had very little time to think and without a substantial counter he simply twisted his torso so that both shoulders would move so Hinin's fist would miss him by an inch, continue through, and their shoulders would lock for an instant. He then used Hinin's momentum to spiral both of the Mack over the ground and evemtually release himself to jump a few feet away where he would leave his opponent cold on the ground while carefully, quickly, and accurately slipped a cluster of shuriken from his pouch and tossing them. They would cover both sides, above and center of Hinin, leaving little room to maneuver.

Hinin now grinned wide and closed his eyes, in an instant, they shot open, activating the Sharingan. He really didn't have much time or options. He grabbed the hilts of the kitanas on the ground, keeping himself from hitting the ground. He then lifted them in front of himself to block the shurikans. He was surprised by his own speed because up until recently, he hadn't had to use full speed in a long time. He skillfully deflected the shurikans with the swords then sighed. "You are very good. You actually got me there for a second. I do believe it is time to add more skill the spar though. " With this he smiled a big grin and completed hand signs perfectly and without hesitation. He then held his two index fingers to his lips almost in the shape of a torch and shot as much chakra out as he could muster. Out came the fire and in his head he thought the name of the jutsu. "Blazing flame jutsu" The fire shot out in a ball at first but then it became more powerful. It was more as if the flame had turned into a swarm of insects flying towards Kota. If Kota was caught in the jutsu, it would cause minor damage but definitely painful. After he had cast the jutsu, he jumped over the swarm of flame and let three kunai fly with all of the speed of the Uchiha clan aimed for the shoulders of Kota. if these attacks hit all together, Kota would both be burnt to a minor extent and be wounded. Thus the match would be won.

He smirked a bit from seeing how he had stirred the Uchiha into h
using his true and predictable abilities. First he had pulled a smoke bomb and threw it as quickly as possible into the flames which it promptly exploded causing the flames to repel themselves for a few seconds allowing Kota his escape. He heard the kunai slicing threw the air and mustered a few handsigns in time to send out two shockwaves of electricity. The first would magnatize them and the second would take advantage of their new magnetism and force them to stop dead and bounce off his electrical sheild. With this he threw another smoke bomb which burst into a dense fog to blind his opponent and attempted to toss another cluster of shuriken in his direction.

He was now officially having fun with this fight. He decided that he no longer saw use of swords, since this was a jutsu battle now. He tossed them in the air casually and let his heels land on a tree a few yards away. He then pushed off with all his strength, flying side ways through the air. He let many kunai fly out almost carelessly. They landed all behind Kota. One landed in a tree about ten meters back, one landed stuck in the ground six feet back. one landed directly behind Kota, five meters back. He smiled at this now as he flipped his hands in a crossed motion. This would pull the invisible cords he had strung to the kunai together and if Kota fell for it, he would be trapped tightly to a tree six meters behind him.

He would fall for the trap as he twitched a bit from the kunai, but before he was pulled to the tree, he forced his electrical chakra to enhanse the edges of his blades and slice through the wire; and a strong electrical current was also shot back through the wire and would stun his opponent if his skin was connected to the current through metal.

HE sighed and smiled, letting go of the cords quickly. "I solemnly surrender. You have bested me. " With this he caught his swords in the air and slid them back into their sheaths.

He nodded and returned his weapons to their proper positions. He then glanced back to see his giant dog eating a deer, a bone snapped as Nota tried to chew slower to conceal the meat in his jaw.
