Taka releases a bellowing laugh. He flaps his massive wings, creating strong forces of wind all around himself that blows Kodai away.
Kagayaku jumps over to the tree Miyuki watches from. He tells her, "We can't just let Kodai do all of the work. We are supposed to be working as a team."
"But what can we do?" Miyuki asks.
"Do what we are supposed to do and help." Kagayaku laughs.
"But, I have Byakugan and that would require for me to get close. And you...you're Kaga-Baka." She snarls.
"Suit yourself." Kagayaku shrugs, jumping away. He jumps from tree to tree and jumps up to Kodai, who was still in the air from Taka's attack. Kagayaku whirls around to be behind Kodai. He tucks his knees to his chest and then kicks Kodai's back, sending him hurdling towards Taka at near blinding speeds, as Kagayaku lands on a branch.
Kodai smiles as he speeds towards Taka, "Thanks Kaga!" he yells. He kicks Taka across the face. As he spins around, he makes the seals again and launches another fire ball at Taka.
If you keep on failing at everything you do, don't view yourself as a failure. For you succeed at failing. So to succeed, one must fail at failure!
Taka manages to stop himself before he slams into trees, and barely twirls out of the fire's way. Taka's eyes widen as some of his regular feathers get scorched.
"You kids are becoming troublesome." Taka makes a growling noise on his chest.
"Alright, it's your turn." Kagayaku smiles in Miyuki's direction. He grabs her, does a spin, and then throws Miyuki. Then, Kagayaku jumps after Miyuki. He speeds past her, and attempts to punch Taka's beak. But he is too slow, and Taka swoops down. Just as Kagayaku had wanted. When Taka went down farther, he finds himself unable to move quick enough, or a whole lot because of all of the trees. Taka tries to get back up, but his burnt wing wasn't letting him move fast enough. And Miyuki comes down and strikes his back with her palm. "Open Palm, Fierce Gale!" With that, Taka lets out a screeching noise, his eyes widening as chakra is sent through him in a powerful hit that cracks the air. Taka slams into the ground of the forest.
Kodai jumps over Taka, and uses the last of his available energy to charge up one last fireball. "Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Blast!" An even bigger fireball slams down on Taka, scorching the trees and everything around it. All out of energy, Kodai falls to the ground.
If you keep on failing at everything you do, don't view yourself as a failure. For you succeed at failing. So to succeed, one must fail at failure!
Kagayaku leaps down, and helps Kodai to stand by wrapping one of Kodai's arms around his shoulder. Taka is encased in full body armor, laughing under his breath. Miyuki stands beside Kagayaku.
"You kids got me pretty good. I'll give it to ya." Taka smiles, and Kagayaku and Miyuki return the smile.
"But next time, I'll make sure Sakana gives me a larger chakra supply." Taka chuckles, nudging Kodai lightly with his beak. Taka then rises, "Good bye, young ones. I see bright futures for you all...genin of the leaf." With that, Taka is gone in a vacuum of wind.
"We did it. We passed." Kagayaku's eyes bulge with surprise.
"Yes!" Miyuki throws a fist into the air.
Kentaru had been watching Kagayaku first hand, that's where he had left to, he stands smiling at Kagayaku from a distance, he turns and runs back towards Sakana and his team.
Gumura and Shiawase shrug, watching the bird suddenly vanish. Gumura glances over at Kyo. "We passed, and that's what counts." Shiawase nods in agreement.
Kagayaku bursts out laughing, pointing at Kodai. Then, Kagayaku drops to the floor, snoring away. He could finally sleep.
"Great." Miyuki exhales heavily. She slings Kodai over her back, with his arms around her neck, as he was bigger than Kagayaku, who she now holds in her arms. Miyuki starts walking back towards Sakana.
Sakana still stands in his same exact spot. The sun was starting to go down. There were five groups already with him. He spots Miyuki walking towards him, carrying Kagayaku in her arms and Kodai on her back. She drops, making sure to not hurt Kagayaku or Kodai as she does so. Sakana nods at her, and smiles subtly. She laughs under her breath, nodding back.
Banjin smiles as he see's his brother, he is in the forest now and he pauses for a second and he back flips into a tree as he dodges a vacuum wind strike, "Ha finally you show yourself" he says turning and seeing one the the 7 swordsman of the mist the only one to use tonfa's so word of his declaration to become one must have spread..."Ok lets get on with this shall we" Banjin says
Sakana nods at Kodai. "Yes. And Taka has only passed one team before, and he is over a hundred years old."
Kagayaku is still asleep on the grass, while Miyuki is getting to her feet.
Miyuki smirks, and pounds her fist against his. Then, she grabs his wrist and pulls him up to his feet. "I am glad to have been on a team with you. Tomorrow our real teams shall be decided." She could feel her heart skip a beat. Miyuki had actually liked being on a team with Kodai...and Kagayaku had surprised her a bit, even.
"Same." Is all Miyuki can say before sighing, deciding to grasp Kodai in a hug. She then laughs. "Am I going to have to escort you home? You and Kaga-Baka?"
"Someone else is taking care of Kaga-Baka." Miyuki chuckles, throwing Kodai up into the air and catching him on her back. She looks at Sakana. "I'm taking him home. See ya tomorrow sensei!" With a wave, Miyuki leaves the training grounds and enters the village's streets.
