Cat hopped from branch to branch, carefully placing her feet so as not to draw attention to herself. It was only a matter of time before Jiraiya-sensei found her...she'd have to make this quick. She jumped down in front of the door to the Tower.
"Sensei, sorry to have to do this to you but...I WILL RAIN A DEATH OF EXPLODING WIND-UP SHRIMP UPON YOU!!" She tossed out some of the wind-up shrimp that were her trademark. Usually used as decoys, I had modified some of them into explosive weapons.
Jiraiya looked at her with a clueless expression on his face. It looked surprisingly natural. "WHAT? I, the master Lady-killer of Konoha, am supposed to be afraid of...wait, EXPLODING wind-up shrimp?"
Unable to help himself, he looked down at one of the wind-up shellfish, which had bumped into his toe. He picked it up by the tail and smirked. "Nice bluff kid, but I'm supposed to be afraid of--?" He trailed off as Cat began making handsigns.
"RAMEN NO JUTSU!!! EXPLODING WIND-UP SHRIMP OF DEATH!!!"
"Aw...SHIT!" Jiraiya yelled and back-pedaled, not realizing that he was surrounded. The toys exploded with surprising force. "DAMN IT ALL!!!!" His trousers had caught on fire as the little wind-ups exploded.
As he hopped around, trying to put out the flames lighting his backside up like a Fourth of July fireworks show, Zhen and I hopped out of our hiding place. I landed on the tips of my fingers, somersaulting into position in front of Cat. Zhen had taken Jiraiya's rear position, laughing insanely as the Prodigal Son of the Village Hidden in the Leaves tried to douse the fire that was slowly making a living rump roast out of his @$$.
