He was drifting through the air, he didn’t do anything to stop it until the last possible moment. Just when his body was set to collide with a tree trunk, Rokuro threw his weight and regained control of his frame with a quick backflip, chakra gathered to his feet and helped his cling to the wood. His hands came together and ran through a chain of hand seals, his fingers twisting into a variety of different patterns.
”Katon: Gouryuuka no Jutsu !”
Rokuro's right hand rose to his lips and guided the fire balls that flew from between his lips towards their respective target. After pushing off the tree trunk, Roku started to leap from branch to branch and charged directly for the spot he knew Orochimaru landed in. He blew out two dragon heads made of flame at first, both of them easily breaking through the tree tops and going for the Sannin. In mid step though, Rokuro strafed to the side and jumped back down for the ground, landing right in front of the first Rashomon gate. He then shot the third fire ball for Orochimaru from the front.
"Hien!"
The moment the third fire ball took to the air, Roku reached back with his left hand and drew a kunai from the holster on his thigh. He held the blade in a reversed position and channeled his chakra through it, it was still as light as a kunai knife but its length extended. The chakra blade was as long as a standard katana. Quickly following up after his jutsu, Roku launched himself forward and sought to lop the sannin’s head off, should he try and dive off of the branch to avoid his fireballs.

”I guess this is Kiri’s welcome party.”
The Sannin joked as he dove off the side of the branch and evaded the incoming fire balls. His sensitive ears hear threw fire balls being expelled, yet he only counted two as they whizzed past his moving body. That was when he noticed the third appearing right in front of him. He was forced to twist his body in midair to move out of harms way, then the jounin took to the sky to engage him with his kunai.
The tip of Orochimaru’s sword protruded from the mouth of a brown snake, which in turn extended from his mouth. The snake extended a fair length and parried the kunai attack with the sword, warding off the chakra blade as well. As the Sannin descended back to the ground, he ran the tips of his thumbs across the side of the sword and then smeared a line of blood across the summoning tattoos that were branded on his fore arms.
“Kuchiyose no Jutsu.”
He placed the palms of both hands on the ground after landing in a crouched position. At that moment, two dark green snakes rose from the ground, both of them fairly large in size. One went to swallow Rokuro, while the other came up on the other side of the three gates to swallow Amon.

Amon jumped on the first gate, looking at the Kiri shinobi and the other ninja fight. No need to intervene. The last man standing will die by my hand the Oni thought with a sly smile, sheathing the blade across his back. The Kirigakure Jounin was more than skilled, combining Taijutsu and Katon with Suiton Techniques. But the other nin had something...disturbing about him. Amon almost wished that he would kill the Kiri Jounin, only because the Oni enjoyed the fight between them.
Then the unknown shinobi summoned two large snakes. The first one attacked the Suiton user, while the second circled around the Rashoumon gates. Amon started forming hand seals at a rapid rate, meanwhile aiming at the snake's head. "Katon. Exploding fireball No-Jutsu" he excalimed, launching a large ball of fire that hit the snake head one, blowing up it's upper parts. It fell to the ground, dead. Pieces of roasted snake meat flew all over the place.
His rage written plain upon his face, Amon jumped down from the gate and started running towards the snake eyed nin, unsheathing his sword.

As the massive snake rose out of the ground and sought to consume him, Roku doubled the chakra output into his kunai, causing the creation of a second blade out of the base. It didn’t matter how he held the kunai now, it was a double bladed weapon.
Rokuro made his body slender in the air to build up speed while descending and met the snake with his weapon held vertically, easily splitting its upper and lower lips upon impact. A forked tongue wasn’t the only split part of the snakes body any longer. Before he could make a full, killing cut though, Roku swayed all his weight forward and performed a quick cartwheel-like manuver away from the snake’s mouth. His brown eyes stared hard into the serpents yellow eyes as he twirled past its face. He started to slide down the snakes smooth scales as it feel into the ground and threw his kunai into the air, ceasing chakra flow and dissipating the dual blades. His hand came together in front of his chest.
”Kirigakure no Jutsu!”
A thick mist fell over the battle field to rob Roku’s opponents of their vision. Roku then snatched his kunai out of the air once it came back down to him. Under the cover of the mist, Roku dove off of the snakes back and twisted himself in mid air while soaring over the other two ninja, his dual sided chakra sword went to cut both of their heads off from the eyes up. It would be a killing blow. After he’d passed over them and landed behind Oni, Roku reached back with his left hand and drew three shuriken. He hurled them all for Oni’s back and waited to see what happened next.

Orochimaru was about to greet Amon with a torrent of serpents when the mist rolled in. H kept his calm composure though, as always, and stuck his hand straight towards Oni. Just when was about to attack, his world went dark. Everything from the bridge of his nose up was separated from the rest of his body and fell to the ground, the rest of his body followed afterwards. He was motionless and his reptilian eyes were glazed over. The Sannin had escaped death several times before though. He wasn’t about to let the reaper claim him just yet.
Snakes crawled out of Orochimaru’s severed portion of head and intertwined themselves with more snakes that were crawling out the rest of his body. His blood stained the ground and the sound of something being dragged through the dirt could be heard. His body was brought back together slowly, the Sannin blinked twice before rising to all fours. He remembered Oni was coming for him and elongated his neck, he opened his mouth wide and bore fangs that dripped a yellow secretion. It was time for him to bestow the gift of the cursed seal.
The sannin stood his ground, still positioned on all four limbs, and unleashed a torrent of brown snakes out of his open maw. The snakes fanned out to the sides and formed a wave of opened mouths and fangs. As if the sheer number of them wasn’t enough, the blade of his sword somehow protruded out of each of the snakes mouths. Behind the cover of his snake shield, which remained stationary to protect him from frontal assualts, Orochimaru cocked his head back to gain momentum and then threw his head forward with visible fangs.

Amon charged at the snake-eyed nin, running at inhuman speed granted by his hatred-empower muscles. Howling like a devil, he raized his cursed blade head high and aimed at the enemy shinobi, his bloodlust rising like an angry tsunami. Three shuriken were launched at his back. Amon was unable to see them through the thick mist or hear them, with all the blood pounding in his ears like a war drum.
But the Berseker Demon inside did sense them. A large, black wall of thick hatred chakra rose behind the Oni, burning the shuriken to dust before they even passed through the wall. His attenton shifting to the other ninja, Amon reversed the grip on his sword and prepared to cast a jutsu that would blast the Suiton user to the hells.
However, something made him stay his hand. The Oni shook his head, pushing away all of his thoughts, leaving place for his wrath to settle in. He tried to charge again, but could not. [shadow=red,left,500]Beware Amon. Power approaches. We weill not turn our face away from it[/shadow] the demon inside whispered with a malicious smile. The Oni's head turned without him wishing him to.
That's when he saw the snake-eyed nins head coming at him, his neck transforming into the body of a snake. Amon was paralyzed as the nins side teeth buried themselves into his neck, feeling him with pain. [glow=red,6,300]ARGHHH[/glow] the missing nin screamed in pain, his shouts of agony drowned by the demon's laughter in his mind. A seal, like three black thunders pointing at the same point, formed itself on his right shoulder.

”That’s one down.”
The sannin gloated after ripping his fangs out of Amon’s neck and blotting away remnants of the secretion with the sleeve of his longer shirt. He stood behind the safety of his wall of snakes for a second time now, biding his time before he struck again. The constantly waving wall of serpents stood strong, all of them baring the blade of his sword in their mouth. If nothing else, the two of them will be suitable test subjects. [/I] The sannin thought to himself as he stood with a devilish grin forming on his face. He’d recently visited one of his more fortified compounds and started to work with the cursed seal again. He’d applied to several captives and other subjects as well, but none of them survived the application. An exact reason for their death was still being sought by Kabuto, but he was willing to keep trying just incase there was a special case around. The more people he applied the cursed seal to, the better his chances of striking success. His neck increased once again in length, and the snake sannin began to sink into the ground. He wouldn’t need his sense of sight from here, it was all about vibrations in the ground now. His wall of serpents dissipated into common breeds of snakes, all of which borrowed into the dirt or slithered away into the bushes. Orochimaru’s tongue flicked out of his mouth twice, then he lunged up out of the dirt and sought to sink his fangs into human flesh for a second time. [/center]

Words couldn’t describe it, and it took him completely by shock. As his a ninja, his reaction time was top of the line. He was as quick as he needed to be and always sought to be aware of his surroundings. Rokuro witnessed all that had transpired before him, but wasn’t one hundred percent sure what the result would be. He started to spin his double bladed chakra sword in the palm of an open hand and charged at an unsuspecting Oni. I didn’t want to kill him, but I wont risk facing one of Orochimaru’s abominations either. Answers aren’t important any more.[/I] He took his first step forward and then leapt into the air. He prepared himself to deliver a quick death blow.
His right foot was snagged on something, he couldn’t get that high off the ground and ultimately ended up face first in the dirt. He dropped his kunai in the process and his chakra blade ceased to be, having been cut off from his chakra flow. The mist jounin could feel a stinging sensation in the center of his back, of all places, and realized that he was being restrained. His body was constricted by what looked to be a enormous, white snaked. It rose out of the ground and looped over his frame, then went back under and repeated the process higher up. He was literally tied to the floor.
The feeling of pain was sharper then any blade he could ever be pierced with. He could barely turn his face to the side, his chin dug deeper into the dirt, and saw a mop of black hair hanging over him. It seemed like the battle had just started seconds ago, it was much to quick for defeat. Rokuro was unaware of the fact that he had been branded, and resolved to fight on once his freedom came.[/size]

[shadow=red,left,300]Pain[/shadow]
It was the only thing Amon could feel, his sense dulled. But with this pain, came power. The Berseker Demon inside him made a strange, abnormal sound that could have been laughter and sighs of pleasure both. The new gained power mixed with the Demon's own, the black, hatred chakra raging like a storm as it fed upon the power of the cursed seal.
Soon, the pain faded, leaving the Oni numb, his senses still dulled. He felt as if a giant had stepped on his, his bones hurting and his muscles so tense they might have as well been ripped. He tried to stand up, needles of pain shooting up his legs. Finally, Amon managed to get up on his two feet and looked at the snake eyed shinobi. The seal started burning more. Amon, his voice fueled by pain, hate and rage, screamed: [shadow=red,left,300]What have you done to me?[/shadow]
OOC:Sorry for the short post, I need to do some stuff and I don't have much time.

The sannin pulled his teeth out of Rokuro’s neck and smirked, blood still dripping from his pale lower lip. His skin started to loose its color and quickly became a light shade of grey. The once lively, elongated portion of neck that constricted Roku to the ground started to loosen its grip. A bump about the size of a fist formed on his forehead as the sannin continued smirking, his skin broke and began to ooze various fluids.
”Don’t be angry-”
He started sarcastically as his entire face split into two halves from the top of his head down to the bottom of the chin. A pair of hands reached out from under his skin and further splitted his skull. He continued to speak as he sheds out of his skin.
”I’ve given you both my divine blessing. Your lives are forever entwined with mine. My cursed seal will give you more power then you could ever achieve on your own.”
The sannin stood over Roku now, discarded skin was the lying over the Jounins body. Orochimaru crossed his arms and locked his reptilian pupils with Amon’s. He didn’t blink, and he never stopped grinning. He was usually smug.
”This is only the beginning….”

Cursed…Seal…?[/I] The young jounin remained motionless on the ground, a powerful burning sensation shooting along the full length of his spine. It was greatest directly between his shoulder blades. He inhaled deeply through the nostrils and inadvertently took in a nose full of dust, his chin was pressing hard against the ground. He tried to ball his right fist, but failed. He had to strain himself in order to receive a response from the muscles in his arm.
After Orochimaru had begun to speak, Rokuro was able to finally ball his fist and roll out his wrists. His dark brown eyes fell onto the kunai that lie in front of him. They were hidden by the cover of his long black hair. My body’s completely numb, and there’s no telling how long I’ll be out of commission. If I could just get up to my feet.[/I] Roku thought to himself as his mist began to fade away.
He opened both his hands and planted his palms on the hard surface of the ground. His teeth began to grind together and his face twisted, he was determined to spur his body into movement. By sheer will power alone, Roku lifted himself into push up position and began to stare hard into the blades of grass below. He could see the snakes skin falling off him from the corners of his eyes. He slid his knees underneath him next and sat up, now his gaze was turned to the sky above. Moments later, the young jounin was standing on wobbly legs, black strands of hair partially concealing agitated features of the face.
”….Orochimaru….”
It was all he could come to say, Roku had to stumble to the side and lean against a tree trunk in order to keep himself standing upright. His body wouldn’t be able to function right at the moment, it would take time for it to become accustomed to this ‘divine blessing’. His gaze and voice tone made it known that he harbored aggression still. If he could fight on, he would without question. As his right hand moved into his waist pouch and drew out a exploding pouch, which he then tossed into the air as a signal for help, he decided now was the time to swallow what he had hidden under his tongue earlier. The pouch of powder exploded several feet in the air above them and created a cloud of smoke about the same time that a small pill traveled down Roku's throat.[/size]

Amon could not hear Orochimaru answer. His attention shifted elsewhere, without him wanting it. The Berseker Demon inside him was controlling him like a puppet, pulling the strings and laughing wildly. The Oni looked at the Suna Jounin, as his hands started to glow with the hatred chakra within them. [shadow=red,left,600]"Now, kill him"[/shadow] the Demon commanded, assaulting Amon's mind telepathetically. Unable to resist the infernal command, the missing nin started forming hand seals.
[shadow=red,left,300]Fuuton, Daitoppa[/shadow] Amon whispered and blew. A powerful wind suddenly arose, destroying all in it's path as it headed for the Suna shinobi. Without wasting any time, the Oni formed a few more seals and said: [shadow=red,left,300]Katon, Karyu Endan[/shadow] and launched a missile of fire at the wave of wind, igniting it. Amon could feel the Demon smirk as he saw the two combined jutsu being launched at the ninja.
How long would it be before the infernal entity inside him took control, wearing his skin like a mask? It was not uncommon for an Oni to lose his soul, but that only happened when an overusage of the kekkei genkai took place, something that Amon had not done. Could it be the seal that snake-nin had just given him? Still, even before that shinobi appeared, something seemed to stir the Demon up.
[shadow=yellow,left,300]That thing you have inside you will kill you, Oni. Despite the fact that one such as you does not deserve death.[/shadow] he remembered Aya's last words when she laid in a pool of her own blood, murdered by Amon. The stoic missing nin had ignored the comment and cut her head off. In the end, she proved to be right, but she was also dead and that was all that mattered to the Oni.
Snarling at the hateful memory that had come out of nowhere, Amon unsheathed his blade and charged at Roku, howling like the d**ned.

He’s attacking again![/I] His thoughts rung through his head like a shrieking siren of alarm would fill the ears of an endangered citizen. His eyes became wide, but his body remained slump against the tree. The soldier provision pill was having difficulty taking effect at the moment. Something was overpowering it, so his body was utterly useless. MOVE D@MNIT!!![/I] His face twisted in a show of frustration and his hands clenched tight into two balled fists. He couldn’t bring himself to react. He couldn't lift his arms to create hand seals. Desperation swept over his body faster then Oni’s combination jutsu ever could. This cant be the end. I had things under control just a second ago. D@mn you Orochimaru, and d@mn you Amon Oni. I’m not done yet…[/I] The combination of wind and fire decimated everything that stood in its path. There were toppled trees that formed a trail of destruction, smoking and partially scorched on the bark. The ground was seared black and grass was reduced to ash instantly. Nothing was left of the wooden log that Roku had switched places with a fraction of a second ago. He used a jutsu that didn’t require hand seals, and now he was concealing himself in the tree tops some number of feet away from the two missing ninja. Quietly, he sat on a thick branch, strong enough to support his body weight, and closed his eyes tight. My body wouldn’t move and I had difficulty regulating my chakra up until that one critical moment. Now, I feel stronger then I did when I first woke up this morning…[/I] He had been sitting against the upper portion of the tree trunk, but now he slouched down and laid himself ontop of the tree branch as if it were a comfortable mattress. This isn’t the effect of my soldier provision pill, I know what that boost feels like. This is something else…something dark.[/I] He could feel sunlight on his face, and although he wanted to ‘open’ himself to it, he couldn’t. He felt colder then ever, even while exposed to the most powerful source of heat there is. His thoughts, aside from being inquisitive, were dark in nature. His will to fight was strong, and he desired revenge. Revenge…on who?….for what? I took it upon myself to turn things into a triple threat. I made the decision to intervene in things. What gives me the right to seek revenge?[/I] His face turned bright red as a wave of anger suddenly overcame him. He needed to something…anything. In a whirl wind of motion, Roku rose from his resting place and took his sword into hand. He twirled it skillfully without looking in his right hand and then passed it to his left, his mind set on returning to battle. It was in that brief second that he caught a glimpse of himself. His new self. What…..who is……Me?[/I] He held his sword close to his face so that the reflection would be as clear as possible. He raised a hand and caressed his cheek with his fingers to make sure the face he saw was his own. That’s when he noticed it, the same was happening with his hands as well. Black markings, curling out like untamed vines, were spreading around his body in a slow fashion. Orochimaru.[/I] He sheathed his sword and turned to the East. There’s no way I’m letting this happen. My will power is too strong.[/I] A puff of smoke arose and then Roku was gone. He knew the results of Orochimaru’s experiments, it was those very results that made him famous throughout the ninja world, and refused to become one of his pawns. He had to return to Kirigakure now and seek treatment while this ‘power’ was still fresh in his blood. He didn’t want to give it time to bond with his body. ~lol, got what I wanted and somebody has to go help Konoha . Roku out~ [/center] [/size]

The infestation had taken effect faster then Orochimaru predicted. He could feel it in his veins, the moment that Roku decided mentally his body was obsolete. The moment he realized it would take more then skills and pills to survive the incoming onslaught. The moment he realized he would need his power if he wanted to live to see tomorrow.
This enhanced version of the cursed seal took effect rather quickly, that was one thing the sannin took note of as he watched the actions before him with sheer glee on his face. He hadn’t finished speaking yet, but it didn’t matter in the long run. Only the snake sannin himself, the one that applied the cursed seal, could remove it from the corrupted body. Also, only he could instruct the corrupt on how to advance it to the next level of infestation. It was possible to reach the second level on your own, but that would take years to do. Either way the cursed seal would inevitably lead the host back to him.
His tongue ran over his lips slowly, prolonged, and his eye lit with anticipation. He started at the Oni.
”Your skills, your power, your gifts and your curse all belong to me now.”
He stood completely still, arms crossed and eyes focused. His hidden sound garments flowed in a gentle breeze, as did his ebony locks. The sannin dared Oni to resist him.
”You exist to obey my every command….and to fight on behalf of my next vessel. You will devote your life to defending Sasuke-kun from this day forward.”
He boldly stated as all of his serpents that had slithered into hiding before began to reveal themselves. They slithered out from every direction and gathered around the two remaining shinobi.

Amon let out a bloody howl as he saw the Suiton user dissapear. A blast of black, hatred chakra went off where the Kirigakure Jounin stood before, creating a huge, deep smoking hole into the ground. The Oni started smashing a nearby rock with his sword, pieces of stone falling off. It was sliced to pieces in seconds, the power of the sword able to cut steel as if it were paper.
Finally, the missing nin's berserk rage started to subside, leaving a strange sense of tranquility behind. For the first time in years, he felt calm, the fires of anger and hatred that burned within him reduced to tiny sparks. Cold, calculated logic started flowng into Amon's mind. The Oni looked back at the snake-eyed ninja, his red eyes finally returning to their normal, coal-black colour. Who are you and why do you need me? Surely, this mark you gave me is more than it seems to be.
Amon sheathed his blade across his back as he spoke. It seemed that now his fate was connected with this man's and that of Sasuke-kun's, whoever that guy might be. It seemes that I'll find out soon enough he thought with a smirk.
