Vengeance.

Ishi Morimoto stood atop a high tree, starding down over the Kannabi bridge. He gritted his teeth together as he saw his target. He felt and overwhelming rage, consuming himself. He watched as Ryou Miura, as he began heading over the bridge in his direction. Usually, his job would be done within a matter of seconds, and he'd be haulling the body back to where it belonged about now. But he wanted this fight to last. This was personal, and he wanted to make Ryou pay.

Several days ago, Ishi's younger sister Manami had entered the family home, looking pale, as though she had seen a ghost. She didn't speak for a long time. She had layed in the bath for at least a few hours, but when she got out looked just as distraught as when she came home. Deeply concerned for his sister's well being Ishi hugged her and asked her what was wrong. As an answer, she burst into tears, and screamed that she was raped. After she had calmed and Ishi received a proper explanation, he grabed his weapons and stormed out of the house, infuriated.

He had tracked Ryou down as being in Iwa, and sure enough there he was. Ishi took in a deep breath calming himself. He smirked evily, and waited for Ryou to get a bit closer.

Ryou was walking over the bridge back to the mainland, and to Konoha. He'd left the mainland to find and purchase an exotic ring, since traditional rings seemed too... old-fashioned. Nonetheless, he was slightly hurrying across the bridge, as his prime concern was getting back to Konoha. He was unsuspecting of the moments to come.

As Ryou crossed the bridge, Ishi let out and angered chuckle. He lept from the tree, and quickly ran infront of Ryou, not giving him a chance to react. He grabbed Ryou by the throat, and slammed him to the floor of the bridge. "Sick bastard.."

"Wh-What..." Ryou coughs out in confusion, eyebrows arched. He slowly positioned his palm opposite Ishi's stomach, just a few feet away. He coughed out some blood, concentrating chakra and forcing tentacles to spring forth towards Ishi from the palm.

Ishi quickly stood up and stamped onto Ryou's arm, grabbing the tentcles as they neared. He used his other foot to stand on Ryou's chest, keeping him pinned to the floor. "How dare you do that to her.."

"To... Kana?!" Ryou wheezed, struggling to breath. "Who the hell are you, and why does it matter what I do with Kanashimi? She's my fiancee!" He argued, coughing out every word. He couldn't do anything at the moment, so he decided to bide his time, and hope for an opening. Self-preservation outweighed that man's life.

"YOU'VE GOT A FIANCEE AND YOU RAPED MY SISTER?! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" Ishi growled, furious with him. He lifted his foot from his arm, and stamped down into his chest.

"I-I never raped anyone." He sputters, coughing up more blood. "W-Who is your s-sister?" He coughs, trying to stay calm. He raises one hand, taking a weak grip on Ishi's foot.

Ishi looked down at the hand on his foot. He chuckled slightly and looked back to his face. "Manami..and lie to me all you want. It won't stop me." Ishi's words were coming out as a deep growl, even though his voice was normally very pleasent. He felt rage building up once again, but tried to keep himself calm.

"I guess it won't." Ryou says softly, trying to conserve his air. He opens up a hole in the wrist on Ishi's ankle, tentacles stabbing into it. "But I never raped your sister. I hardy know her." He states calmly, forcing the tentacles to penetrate.

Feeling the stabbing pain in his ankle Ishi got very angry. With his ok leg he kicked down on Ryou's arm, snapping his hand away from his leg, ripping a bigger hole into his ankle. Over the year's Ishi had learned to endure and ignore pain, so he just laughed. He jumped off Ryou's chest and leaned against the railing of the bridge. "Get the f*ck up, you cowardly little boy, and fight me."

Ryou holds back a scream, scrunching his hand up in a fist to make sure it was ok. "Cowardly?" Ryou rolls his eyes, standing up unsteadily. "I haven't even done anything." He frowns, biting his thumb and wiping a trail of blood across his palm.

"You're gonna set your jellyfish on me?" Ishi asked in a patronising tone, cocking his head. "I'm afraid my sister doesn't lie...so if she says you raped her, as far as i'm concerned..you raped her. She is the most important thing in my life..and you will pay for violating her..." Ishi jumped up to stand on the banister of the bridge and held his arms out to the side. "Come on then...Don't mind a bit of a scrap with a big floating squishy thing.."

"Why don't we head off this bridge so it doesn't break?" Ryou asks with a sigh. "I might of been bad a long time ago, but I still would never rape someone, I wouldn't do it now, either." He performs a few hand seals, pressing his hand to the ground.

Amidst the smoke, a giant jellyfish, around 8x the size of Ryou, appeared. It floated off the ground, boasting a staff, a ribbon-like tail, and a huge bulb.

"The least of my worries is if this bridge breaks.." Ishi looked at the jellyfish and gave a slightly impressed nod. "I've been wondering what they looked like. Ever since I found out about it I found it interesting..shame I have to find out more like this.." Ishi examined the jellyfish, watching it carefully, waiting for an attack.

"Shame? You're enjoying it." Ryou shakes his head. "You, first. I'm not going to fight, only reciprocate." What happened to Manashimi... Ryou grunts, holding his half-crushed hand.

"You raped my sister..don't you dare judge.." Ishi nodded his head slightly looking around the surroundings. 'Hmmm' Smirking slightly Ishi formed handseals and calmly stated, "Suiton Suriyuudan no Jutsu." Causing water to spiral up from behind, in the form of a dragon. Once completely formed it came crashing down at Ryou and his jellyfish.

"Yikes." Ryou exclaims sarcastically as the wave crashes down. Two mounds of jelly take place of Ryou and his jelly, and they appear around 30 yards beside the wave. "Why would I rape her? I'm getting married with the woman I love. I'd have no reason to betray her trust and do that to a friend."

Ishi shrugged. "Well, I wouldn't know what's going on in your mind now would I.." He jumped down back on the bridge, wading through the water, his feet becoming soaking. He sighed slightly as the cool water soothed his ankle. "But...if you aren't gonna fight back...i'm gonna have to make this fun for me in another way..."

"Mmh, how would you do that?" Ryou sighs, folding his arms. "What would it take for you to understand I -didn't- rape her?" The jellyfish tapped its bulb several dozen times, creating around 60 large shuriken from a scroll seal and holding them all within its tentacles.

Ishi raised and eyebrow, looking slightly intrigued. "Well, my friend...I'm gonna need some proof about that.." Ishi growled slightly, waiting for the jellyfish to attack.

The jellyfish didn't move. It'd just provide as a defense, as Ryou didn't want to injure whoever that was, even if the feeling wasn't mutual.

"And how do I give you proof? I left your sister to see what my would-be wife wanted. I was with her the whole day." He sighs, dipping his head. "I say would be because you seem intent to kill me."

Ishi laughed, slightly amused by the comment. He slowly began walking towards Ryou, keeping an eye on the jellyfish. Meanwhile he sent a clone from behind. The clone was carrying a large branch, apparently from a nearby tree, and sent violently swung it at Ryou's back.

Ryou rolls his eyes, the giant jellyfish next to him launching 3 fuuma shuriken at the clone, one tagging the branch and the other two launched at it. Ryou himself begins walking away. "I don't want to fight you. I came here to aquire a ring, and nothing else."

Ishi rolled his eyes. "You don't exactly have a choice..unless you can prove you wern't raping my sister..you're going to suffer massively..". He smiled to himself, formed some handseals and took in a deep breath. When he breathed out he sent a very large ball of fire, straight towards the jellyfish.
