[High speed Movement]

[Da Crows is Back Man!]

With a poof, one white crow and five or so others appear.

"Soo, cupcake, what can we do ya for?"

"I can try to blow them away from my position, but I need no one to be between me and the targets for it to work. Putting the team medic on the frontlines is NOT S.O.P."

The path that Kenta took through the bubbles is easily visible, considering he popped them as he passed through. It was probably a good thing he used a high-speed technique, as going slower might have caused unpleasantness...

As for the frog, when Kenta got passed it, it decided to head for Ushio, who unfortunatly, happened to be closest to Kenta's previous location.

Kiren, happened to be behind Ayumu, having pulled out a thick book and rapidly flipping through it, muttering, "Sound without meaning... sound without meaning... sound without meaning..."

*Kenta's eyes briefly flick to the path he created through the bubbles before turning his full attention to the crows.*

"Well for now I just need to know if you've ever seen something like these glyphs before. Or heard about glyphs turning into frogs."

[Do you want me to?]

(I'd say yes but you'd probably have to talk to Thozmp about what exactly it is and how rare it is.)

[Thozmp, you decide. Fill me in via PM on whatever you'd like to divulge.]

"Kay, sweetheart, we'll have a look.

Sound without meaning, riiiight. Okay, that's weird. Boss's seen one of these. Strange things these are, rare too. The plus side is, you can kill it by normal means. Probably. I think. Most likely.

We'll stick around and make sure that you don't get too hurt, love."

"Did those bubbles feel any different than regular bubbles as you passed through them?"

*attaches a low grade explosive tag to a kunai and flicks it at the frog's feet*
"Why is it always tunnels where I can't blow stuff up?"

[Hey, what's the tunnel made out of? Stone, Earth, tiles? and how high is the roof? Is relevant ]

Ichigo starts to cycle through handseals as the frog comes at his teammate, "Let's try Raiton: Supaku saji. (spark surge)" A small ball of electricity travels quickly from Ichigo's hand towards the frog-thingy.

[The tunnel is made of stone, about 15 feet high, and 8 feet wide.]

Unfortunatly, Ushio is too slow with launching her attack. SShe manages to throw the kunai, but gets a face full of frog-thing for her efforts. Almost as soon as it is on her, it plants its graffiti like legs in her stomach and pushes off violently. Unfortunatly for it, it just happens to be straight into the path of Ichigo's jutsu, which gives it a good zap that seems to hurt it, but it still has enough life in it to puff up again with another croak.

[Blah. Look, don't post, forget Damn I need to learn some jutsu. Ah well, let's go with the traditional.]
*Hops forward and kicks it in the eye*

(So Thozmp

So it can be killed, maybe, well that's good."

"Did those bubbles feel any different than regular bubbles as you passed through them?"

Actually I didn't even feel them popping.

So it can be killed, maybe, well that's good."

"Just remember, everything can be killed. The thing you need to ask is whether or not you can kill it. Though let me try and make things a little easier on you." I run through a seal set. "Doton: Grasping Earth." The ground beneath the creature seems to go liquid for just a moment as it reaches up and traps the creature's lower body and squeezes tight.

Ushio manages to kick the frog gull on in the face...

To absolutely no effect.

Fortunatly, Ayumu's attack is effective, sucking down the creature, unfortunatly, Ayumu didn't take into consideration that there might not be anything underneath the tunnel they are in. So when the frog is pulled down, it is left somewhat hanging in the level below; when it is squeezed, it causes the frog to release its second bubble attack, mostly on Ushio, which also manages to cause the frog to become smaller then when the jutsu initially hit it, small enough that it drops down below them and is unable to get back to the nin.

As for Ushio, when the bubbles hit, they burst, painfully so, it feels like a dozen fists hitting her at the same time. It doesn't seem to do much physical damage, but the pain lets her know she's been hit, and she shouldn't get hit like that again.

As Kiren watches the amphibian fall down the hole, he can only utter, "Why do I get the feeling that's gonna come back to bite us?"

Spotting Ushio wince after getting hit by the bubble Kazuki quickly rolls up his scroll and moves next to her, his fingers lighting up with green chakra along the way. "How did the frogs bubble attack hurt you Ushio-san?"

"Ow!" *rubs off any remaining bubble gunk* "Feels like getting punched. Never had a bubble do that before. I'm fine, I think"

Ichigo glanced at Ushio before looking back at the hole, "Depends on how far down we go. Note to those that don't get the obvious, Doton no go if you don't want to let stuff fall below." Now turning to the jounin, he asks, "What's the plan now?"

*Kenta looks to the group on the other side of the bubbles.*

"so are you guys coming over or what?"

Kazuki examines the wall before stepping on it heading towards the ceiling so he can walk above the bubbles.

[Blah, I have nothing useful to add]
*follows*

Ichigo jumps up and follows his teammates, keeping his eyes on the bubbles.

Checking the rear, I follow the group.
