SALSA VERDE
SALSA VERDE

▅▅▅▅austin | ♏︎ | he/him | 28 | vegan

Hi, I’m Salsa Verde, arguably the best salsa and formally known as the writer, Syn. I’m a Wildlife Biologist traveling the country looking to work with the coolest: herps, mammals, birds, and invertebrates I can get my hands on. I also like plants, trees, and fungi specifically. I’ve been writing for about 13 years now and recently decided to get back into it. I enjoy anything from casual to high roleplay, 1x1, and arena. My main genres tend to be anime, SOL, and superhero but I’m really down to participate in anything. And yeah I like all that weeb shit.

It seemed as though the siphoning of their resources had affected his teammates greatly as well, the most detrimental one being Kiku. When Shizuka turned his back after speaking with Kurin, he saw her fall to the floor along with her weapons and her lavish lavender hair. It was weird, while it was true of any leader or friend to be extra protective of their squad, Shizuka couldn’t get past this weird sensation he had started to get ever since the beginning of the exams when involved with this girl. Shizuka wanted to reach out and run forward to go help her, but it seemed she was stronger than any of them had imagined as she struggled to her feet and made her way towards the group.

Jaakuna had made his way over to the group first, perhaps the one that was the least effected by the branding procedure. Jolly as ever he unintentionally rose the morale of the team with his overwhelmingly positive and optimistic vibe. Before he could say anything to Thunder God, Kiku had collapsed and latched onto Shizuka. The sudden grasp onto his hands triggered his instincts as he clenched tight, but not to the point it was causing any pain. Shizuka turned to face her only to see what state she was in. He needed to get his team out of these caves so they could properly rest or seek the aid of a medical ninja. She pawed her way up to his arm slowly getting used to the effects of the trade.

If it weren’t for the dire situation presented to them, Shizuka would have noticed how closely she was holding him in her two arms, that and the obvious buxom beauty making contact with his arm, but then again he probably didn’t know what that sensation was either. Just then the light bulb in Jaakuna’s head went off and with it the creation of light in his hand, well it was lightning, but you get the gist. As he complimented her on her scent, she pushed herself into Shizuka, before rebounding off of him. He knew she didn’t want to seem weak so he bit his tongue, but for her to lead them in the state she was in was quite questionable.

Slapping the back of the Sundance kid, Shizuka spoke, “Well let’s hope the Kingdom Comes when we see whatever’s inside of here. I’m counting on you sparky, I hope your aim is better than my nicknames. Sparky Sparky boom man.” Little did he know that was the last time there would be a moment of tranquility and laughter. With all four of them stepping into the room the mood quickly shifted from bad to worse. The door sealed shut behind them with no way to open quickly filled the room with dread. Shizuka’s wind senses were going crazy, there was something wrong, something that should be avoided at all costs. A sudden flash of white light cast down on each of them separately, what was this trial and it’s fetish with lights and runes?

It seemed like it was all for the curtain reveal of their next challenge, an actual challenge, a monstrous golem so large it could have only been a shadow of the colossus. Whatever weird sheek metal lined the room and the sleeping giant was of no real importance to Shizuka, Kurin would most likely be well versed in metals and how they interacted with his wood. Shizuka tasked himself with finding the beasts weak spots. There was something off about the way the runes were interacting, it seemed as though it were a loading bar that was uploading their deaths. The golem was alive now and was taking its first steps in what must have been centuries. The floor shook more violently than their arrival and the room of the first exam, the might of this behemoth was too much for anyone one of them to handle alone.

Now moving at a normal pace and drawing energy to what seemed to be its palms, Shizuka’s gut wrenched in anticipation for what seemed to be an attack. “RUN, NOW!” he screamed before scooping up Kiku into his arms and taking off with a propulsion of wind beneath his feet. Looking down at Kiku to check her condition he casually smiled at her, “Are you okay? Didn’t mean to sweep you off your feet.” Although it was a nice alternative to being crushed. “Can you try your best to use your senses and see if you can see anything auspicious about the golem for us? I’m counting on you cloudy eyes.” Shizuka landed softly and gently let down Kiku since it was clear she was still getting used to her weakened state. The Golem didn’t see so much as care about the ninja rather it was feeding off of the room itself.

Too fast for them to stop Shizuka needed to bring his A game. From what he could tell, it seemed the Golems, like the one before with the transformer abdomen, relied on a source of power as if they had localized batteries within their bodies. That was it! They had battery like appendages that conducted electricity. They just needed to destroy the palms of the beast and they would be victorious. Shizuka being on the other side of the room and the noise being in favor of the Golem, he quickly whispered into his hand before he let his words travel through his wind which would hopefully carry the good news to the two on the other side. Being split up would make it harder for them to be hit, but would also prevent them from executing a plan cleanly. But before they could even consider catching a break the monster was already charging up what seemed to be a very destructive blast. If he learned anything in his 17 years of life, it was to not get hit by a giant laser cannon of death.

If you just give the TP a cooldown like 5-10 second like shinra tensei that would work.

No worries, please take your time.

Shizuka was wondering if he would feel any pressure soon, hopefully this thing examined his blood pressure and let him know whether he was being healthy or not. He didn’t really track his vitals, but he was pretty athletic and ate modestly, except strudels, oh how they cursed him and taunted him with their delicate fluffy pastryness. Shizuka’s hair raised on end when he heard the shrill of his teammate "What're you doing!? We don't even know what that thing is gonna do yet!" Shizuka half wanted to start screaming in pain and fall to floor as if his arm was being shredded life cheese, but the other half of him couldn’t think since it was her turn to invade his personal space. Shizuka had never experienced a foreign power challenging him so closely, well he did, but it was never a female, generally all males. Time seemed to slow down as she got closer to him, there was something wrong with his body. His heartbeat started to rise slowly, had the pressure measurer started working? No it was something else. ”Thump…Thump…Thump” his heart playing in his ears now.

There was also a feint smell of lavender from what he could have only assumed was coming from the girl and her hair. It was a relaxing smell, one that reminded him of the plants in the garden his mother owned back when he lived in Sunagakure, it was nothing but sand yet his mother had a green thumb that could make everything grow. While the scent was essential for calming nerves and alleviating headaches, Shizuka’s mind was still doing laps. His temple had small beads of sweat and his cheeks began to gain a small hint of red. Before he could stumble over his words her finger met his forehead, positive energy injected into his body. She sauntered off and Shizuka coughed loudly while fixing his garments before shaking himself out of it and nodding in agreement.

Breaking the awkward air only he felt he turned and peered beyond the throne to his teammate whom he liked more and more as he was almost as open as Shizuka was. “Oi, Thunder God! I saw a fish. That is all. Go back to sticking your hand in stuff.” As soon as he finished Jaakuna thrusted his hand into the proper mechanism and the room began to transform once again. One again the flashing lights came on and the machine tightened around Shizuka’s arm leaving no room to move around. Quickly the feeling of draining coursed through his body, his chakra was being sapped, and he was feeling woozy this time not from Kiku passing by him. With the draining also came a seal that felt like a hot brand being placed on his skin. Trying to control his breathing, Shizuka bared the pain and kept his focus while the Golem was coming to life. Did miners really do this when they needed to move around?

With his arm released and the golem having paved the way for them to continue on, with hopefully their final challenge, Shizuka stood up and walked over to his other two teammates. “Are you guys alright? At least we got matching tattoos am I right?” Letting out a feint weakened chuckle. He may not have been the Leader Kurin intended to be, but he was a kind leader ensuring the safety and health of his comrades. He reached out a hand in case anyone had stumbled. Shizuka wanted to get out of this dreaded tombstone, he walked into the hallway and quickly glazed over the painting and its cryptic messages. There was no worm and the other inscriptions had been useless up until now, the creators really knew how to waste their time down here. There was a bitterness nipping at his skin upon entering the cold dark room. His wind senses had discovered something else was in that room, but there was no chakra leaking from it. His foot crunched whatever had been underneath, when he bent down to look it was a massive pile of human bones. Shizuka once again adorned his stoic and serious fighting intent. This was no time for games, Shizuka walked behind Kurin gripping and thumbing the guard from its scabbard showing the gorgeous black steel only slightly. “As long as we work together I’ll make short work of this beast. I may not be able to use wind against it, but I am a Samurai before I’m anything else. I’ll do my best to create openings and distract the beast. Do not worry about me, I need the rest of you to pass.” Shizuka gripped Kurin’s shoulder and turned to look at the other two with a stare and aura of conviction and protection.
