The Jounin would stay above ground through the forest, jumping from the trees that were not affected by his devastating jutsu. He did not expect the damage to be this catastrophic and only really meant to use the mud wall for his own lazy, yet show-off'y needs. The man would manage to follow right behind the ever growing path of fallen and knocked over trees with the little broken chunks of his mud wall sprinkled everywhere. The man had hoped the genin were quick enough to evade his accidental attack. It was a slow falling mud wall and it was fairly breakable. The destruction it caused would have made it look a bit more intimidating all the while and possibly injury risking if under the object when it impacted the ground. Not necessarily what he had planned, but it would still give Hideo a brilliant idea.

The Jounin would finally catch up to the genin, remaining a good distance away as to stay hidden. Hideo, for the most part, wanted to have a father nature role in the test. He wouldn't attack the genin directly but instead try and strike at them through environmental causes. Not only would the race encourage endurance and speed, but it would also be a nice step into awareness skills and reacting to your surroundings.

He would snap out of his thought as two shuriken came rushing towards him. The man would react quick enough, pushing himself off the branch. As the shuriken would strike the tree, he would roll onto the ground before popping back up and turning towards the attacker. It was the grey eyed genin from earlier who was already on the other side of the lake. The man would quickly notice the other two genin behind him and a quick feeling of relief would overtake him as he saw all three, from his distance, looked fine. [i][color=a36209]Why did he throw those Shuriken at me? Is he mad at me?[/color][/i] The man would start towards the edge of the lake and stand on the soft, wet edge slightly confused. For now he couldn't do anything with the lake and their next obstacle was the steep hill. It was climbable yet still very tricky to get around. The jounin had no choice but to attempt to past the squad up and hope to cut them off ahead. He would then with ease start to jog at a light pace on the surface of the water, carefully leveling out his chakra with the lake. His first few steps would be slow, but he would gradually start to gain speed and improve his running form.
