Lake Beach

A huge stretch of pale yellow sand surrounds the vast Lake in its centre, Surrounding the giant ring of beach-line is a dense green forest.

The stretch of open Sky here is clear blue with a few white clouds hanging above. The wind in this area blows harshly, kicking up the rough sand on the beach floor.

The lake's surface ripples and sends waves at the beach as the wind tosses it about. The color of the waters surface is a deep ocean blue which makes it difficult to see through.

Isshi Okakuji stood at the edge of the lake looking uneasely at distant image that was the shore on the other side. She would usually have four scrolls attatched to her right hip, but only three remained there. Her fourth scroll, which had a seal for her swords was opened at her feet, her blade Nisshoku held in her right hand.

The wind blew her chin lengh hair around her pale face and her ghost white cloak fluttered in the breeze as if it to were anxious for the aproaching fight. It had been a long time since she'd last met the person she was waiting for, her older sister's Ex-Akatsuki partner.

Isshi's hand gripped her sword tighter, her black-red gloved left hand strayed to another scroll on her hip ready for use. And subconsciously she tensed her leg muscles.

"I'm ready, Sasuke Uchiha"

~Sasuke had begun to study Isshi as she had reminded him of someone in his past..."Haku?..." Sasuke spoke softly unaware that this was her younger sister Isshi Okakuji.
"...Its been quite awhile, (Sasuke reaches behind his back and grabs his Kusanagi in mid-sentence watching the young Okakuji kneel to her feet and retrieve her weapon first) since we were last together in the Akatsuki. I've come to bring you back and I'm not taking no for an answer. *Sasuke's onyx dark eyes began to quickly survey the area around him and her.*

-Sasuke's past experiences with Okakuji in combat had been pretty rough as a diamond's edge as they came close to ties in fights.

Sasuke was confident it had to be Haku because the young woman with fair medium hair had known his name. "Heh So I see, you haven't for gotten me". Sasuke holds the hilt of sword firmly as he see's the girls ungloved hand squeeze the hilt of sword even tighter. (' Her calf muscles have seemed to stiffen for speed ' )

Sasuke held his Kusanagi as if it was light as a feather and stuck out his right hand in a "come here" motion and said "Bring it"... Sasuke then poised himself defensively knowing the girl would charge at him from the looks of her legs.

Isshi smirked lightly and bent her right leg foreward into a sort of kneeling stance, though her knee did not touch the ground. Her black gloved hand, which actually had a red cloud on it, left its position by her scrolls. Isshi held the gloved hand inches away from her own face.

Isshi focused her chakra and flickered through handsignes with just her one hand, the other ungloved one still poised on the hilt of her blade. In a heartbeat, she shot herself foreward (With a sort of "Yiah!" battle cry) and slashed at Sasuke with her sword while activating her jutsu.

"Thousand Needles Of Death!"

From the water vaper around her opponent clear white senbon began to appear in a dome shape to surround him. In a split second they would all converge inwards to attack their centre.

Sasuke watched as the girl's lips had moved an at the moment she had given her battle cry "Yiah". He had already knew that he was either gonna be slashed or impaled due to the dead serious look on the girl's face with the black glove and a red cloud blocking her face.

Sasuke couldn't tell how serious she was about her attack, but soon a misty vapor had emreged from no where. Sasuke charged his finger tips with lightning dropped his Kusanagi to the sandy shore and the top of his left shoe.

Sasuke went through a quick flicker of handseals as he appeared to fade away by Shunshin of the vapors around him. Then he kicked his Kusanagi back up into his left hand.
The minute all of the needles had rained down onto him to appear to be visibly impaled severely by the raining ice.

The ice had struck the center covering the area where Sasuke would have been standing as some of the vapors were carried by the wind behind Isshi. Sasuke silently re-emerged from the vapors he used to transport himself and flips through some hand seals. With the lightning still charged on his finger tips. NINJA ART! FIRE STYLE: PHOENIX FIREBALL JUTSU
about 5 balls of flames with hidden chidori senbon had flown towards Isshi's back surrounding her from all sides.

Sasuke then increased the speed of the already dangerous winds on the beach to strenghten the fireballs power and increase them in size. GALE WIND PALM!!!
"

I surveyed this place earlier to understand what you had to your advantage and what i had to my advantage. This place is quite the place for the both of us you know?"

Spoiler:

Isshi threw her blade up in the air, as it flipped she created several handseals fast with both hands and slammed them both on the ground, kicking up the rough pale yellow sand around them. Isshi glanced foreward at the attack through the thing cloud of sand.

"Then I guess..." Isshi smirked slightly as the attacks aproached, the increased wind blowing her hair away from her face. "I better change the battle field a little, Crystal Ice Forest!

From the ground around her huge spiked pillars of ice burst forth. The first of them appearing in front of her creating a dense wall of icy tree's to shield her from the attack. The large horns of glistening ice began to appear all over the area. They started to erupt in a line towards her opponent as to attack him with the large force of them coming out of the ground.

Isshi rose from the position she'd been in since crouching and quickly put her back to the crystal like ice tree she caught her falling sword by its hilt.

Sasuke could see a sword flying into the air in which Isshi had thrown into the atmopsphere.
Although Sasuke could see Isshi's handsigns without his Sharingan, he could not copy them even if he wanted to. This was due to Okakuji bloodline trait of "Crystal Ice". Isshi slammed both of her hands into the ground after noticing Sasuke had gotten away from the first attack through shunshin. She could tell another attack was coming after her just from feeling the wind and maybe some heat picking up as it drew near her. Isshi turned around and faced the phoenix fireballs with the chidori senbon hidden away inside of them.


Sasuke heard Isshi say that she would change the location that was at first a fairly warm climate beach with strong winds, and raging overbearing seas.That rapidly transformed into a forest of thick spiked ice appearing to be horn shaped. Sasuke's fire had hit a wall like structure proteting Isshi from his attack in which he had fired off earlier. Sasuke's stone oil darkened colored eyes had now tunred red with MS to observe the situaition more accurately.

Glistening horns erupted in an abrupt motion as the pale yellow sand had scattered into the air divided by icy pillars. They bursted forth towards Sasuke Uchiha whom was now hop stepping backwards left and right surveying the grounds chakra to see where the ice would strike ahead of time. While Sasuke was leaping away from the attack that came near him he formed some handseals.

Sasuke exhaled some strange smoke seeing that Isshi would need to concentrate hard for a technique like this to last. Happy Smoke! -This jutsu resemebled laughing gas except it was much more potent. Sasuke knew that the ice would keep the smoke trapped inside of the forest of crystal ice and might affect Isshi negatively in order to make this jutsu's normal attack range, defense, and duration become weakened over time.

Sasuke then released some starnge combustible air into the forest that lied ahead of him. 'MIST WALTZ!'...now both this and the combustible mist lingered through out the forest of crystal ice, some how Sasuke wasn't satisfied with the fact that both air mixture jutsu haven't made it through out all of the forest mainly around the tree area where Isshi had retrieved her sword from. This was because it was gaurded by the first wall of ice Isshi had created.

Now Sasuke needed to make a circulation system for the smoke and ash to travel through out the forest like barrier. Sasuke spat out seven 10ft fiery spears into the wals ahead of him to mostly just create air pockets, but if it was to some how connect with Isshi and hit her Sasuke was fine with outcome too. SEVEN HEAVENS! -Sasuke fired a powerful spear at the wall at all angles getting away from the exploison he created himself by crouching down behind a tree far off from where the combustible air was released next to Isshi. Sasuke then blind fired 6 more at the wall to penetrate the wall from behind the tree.


When Sasuke thought the wall was complete wrecked to the point air could get through he used his M.S. to see chakra coloring and see the combustible air chakra and the flames that previously burned away the ice. That he put into the wall and accurately launched 3 more into a hole to carry a trail of blazing fire into it along with the happy smoke.

"Hmmph, Don't think you will be keeping me in this place for long!"

Spoiler:

Isshi observing Sasuke through a system of reflections in her forest surveyed his movements. She saw his eyes suddenly change slightly but couldnt really see from the distance she frowned in consentration trying to see better but couldn't really manage. She was still focusing when she saw him create handseals.

"What're you up too?" Her eyebrows tightened into a frown as she wondered what it was. She saw the the gas appear. "Gas!?"

She imediately put her hands together, taking her mind off watching her oppenent, and created three ice clones with her handseal. She began to instruct them on what they should do. telling two of them to pinser in on Sasuke from two sides, but too hide before getting too close, they were then to attack long ranged to make her position less readable though she doubted this would work for long given Sasuke's sharingan.

As the two ice clones dissapeared in their directions, She began to inform the last clone of its job.
"Ok now your to-"
there was a loud crashing sound on the Ice that cut Isshi off. Alarmed, she looked into her spying position to see Sasuke readying a large fire jutsu. Unable to do any jutsu she reached for an item tied to her waist. The explosion hit and destroyed the pillars protecting her. The last ice clone shattered to pieces with the wall.

Isshi, hit by the explosion spun through the air. She'd just managed to contain herself within her highly compressed three ton ice armor, her skin now held a bluish tinge and the backs of her hands each had a seal under the ice to lessen the gravity of the armor but keep its density, as an added precaution she'd created a make-shift air filter over her nose and mouth to protect her from the gas. Isshi made a mental note that ninja should always carry gas masks. Whilst Isshi was still in the air the two remaining clones made their move.

They each threw a handfull of explosive tags (Attatched to Kunai of course) at Sasuke attempting to destract him with two attacks from roughly behind him in two directions. The Isshi who was thrown by the explosion smirked wikidly under her ice armor and regained her balence inthe air so she was facing towards Sasuke. Isshi attempted to predict where her opponent would dodge through surveying his movements. She made a few handseals and Spoke outloud.

"Barrage of Ice needles!"

Her jutsu came forth quickly. The disc appeared infront of her hands and then the needles started to shoot out at blazing speeds. The needles came out in such numbers that they created the image of a whitish blue beam spraying out of her hands towards where she guessed her opponent would dodge to.

Isshi landed on the ground gracefully, her two legs together and her arms outstretched at her sides. She remembered what he had originally said about her being Haku. At first she frowned at this, but then her lips curved into a smile again as she remembered something else about her opponent. She called back to him.

"Take me back?! Ha! We both know its not that easy!" She paused for dramatic effect. [color=cyan]"You know how this works don't you!? You put you'r old teamate Naruto through it! Ironic isn't it? You'r in the same scenario you were in years ago! Accept, this time I'm the escapie, And you're the friend who fails trying to bring me back!"
