ooc: okay we gotta haul some ass, cuz we are lagging behind, seriously we need to hurry up. ic: Kin slid his arm into the slot and the tip glowed blue, the first pnael spun around revealing the words in blue chakra like a screen. ~~~when does a line, make 5 added 3 times make 550?~~~~ 5 added 3 times............5 + 5 + 5.......that's 15.......the trick to riddles is that nothing is sacred, no method can be ruled out at all, think out the boundaries of ordinary thinking--- Suddenly, the gauntlet lit up, and a furious pulse of electricity shot through Kin. It was like taking three tazers to the chest, and one to arm where the gauntlet, he remember what it was like to take Sasuke's chidori to the chest, and this reminded him a lot of that feeling. Bitter pain surged up inside him, and he grew a little bit dizzy, after about 5 seconds the pulse faded, he was on his knees after it faded, his eyes scrambled for a bit and his sight went straight again. "how the fuck am I supposed to think..............gah.............with this going on....." okay come on, you've been through worse. Stand up Kin, your not done yet, if you have a hard time with this then your a shame......come on, this YOUR specialty!!! Kin began to pick himself up, he looked over to the equation written on the panel. His vision surged in blurrines again, as a faded copy of his vision swished from side to side, making his balance shutter. That's when he saw it, the lines of the equation blurring and shaking. Maybe something just ticked in his head, maybe it was when he described what he was seeing to himself and he said the word 'lines' or maybe it was pure luck, but he got a hunch. "a line............no way.........a line!!" Kin stepped forward pressing the blue tipped finger of the gauntlet to the panel and scraped it across the first + sign. Connected the left tip to the top tip, completing the image of a 4. ~~~545+5= 550~~~~ Kin grinned the green glow turned to green and the panel retreated into the wall, as the second one flipped over revealing the next riddle. ~~~~~Forward in front, I am heavy.......Forward in back, I am not~~~~ As the question revealed itself an even larger pulse of electricity began tot ear through Kin from the gauntlet. |

Saiyuki just watched as Kin went on to recieve the challenge. He knew he couldn't do anything else. He didn't like the look of the guantlets. At least he knew Kin wouldn't lose his arms. Well, between losing one's arm and being electrified, it was still a lot of pain to go through. Right now, the only thing he could do was place his faith in Kin. He had probably experienced things like these many times before in order to get to where he was right now. And he walked with plently of confidence in his stride. Saiyuki took that as a good sign. We can only watch now........and hope you do not fall. Saiyuki kept his eyes on Kin as he placed his arm within the guantlet and the whole contraption activated. He could noticed some of the strain starting to show on Kin's face. He was probably remembering a fight from long ago with a lightning user. Saiyuki tended to do that sometimes. He always felt nostalgic, but that was because he knew his past life. Saiyuki gave a small sigh of relief when he saw Kin's face temporaily light up as he answered the first riddle. It seemed that it was extremely simple, however, now another riddle lighted up on the screen. And it seemed the output of electrical discharge had increased. Saiyuki closed his eyes for a bit before opening them again to watch Kin struggle with the second riddle. You've been through many battles. Don't fail here. |

NEED MORE METHAMPHEDAMINES!!!!

Becky's eye twitched as she watched Kin work, amazed by his thougth process. "I would never be able to get any of these," she muttered. Well, at least we have a genius on our side. But man... How can he think with the electricity shocking him every few seconds? I know that I'd be a bit preoccupied with that, to be honest... Becky shifted uncomfortably, wishing that she would be able to do more, but knowing that the entrance to the city was designed so that as few people would enter as possible. There was probably nothing that would allow the entire team to fuly help out, and aid one another. It was just some twisted designer's scheme, if she thought correctly. Now it's just starting to piss me off... |

Wow, what a clever trap, testing will, and intellect, kin is definatly MADE for this trap, this complex device, damn whoever made this, we need toh urry though Seisho eye's widened up intensly after kin was shocked by what seemed to be a nearly unbearable pain, seisho was stunned to see a man of such power brought almost to his knees, seisho was happy he didn't take this trap, he stood in awe at kins heart to beat this thing "Kin...hang in there!, you've staked your reputation to being a genius, time to prove it!" THe kin i know would shrug this off quicly, but i hope he see's that though were from seperate areas, were a team in here |

Lightning pulsed through Kin again, this time the voltage was tuned up higher and the shock lasted easily double the amount of time. His body fell to the floors, he was on all fours and steam arose from his body. He was sweating now, Itami still stood stoic in the back of the room waiting for this to finish. He knew Kin prided himself on being the best there was when it came to intellect, and he said Itami was not far behind. He figured out the riddle nearly at the same time as Kin, for a moment he felt happy that he kept up, but only now did he realize, Kin was dealing with much more than he was. Was it possibly Kin would have solved it even faster without the gauntlet, as it was he solved it in under a minute. Ayane stepped forward, she felt a swellling feeling to try and help Kin, it was only soon after she stopped herself did she remember the situation. They weren't getting along at all right now, was it still considered normal to want to aid someone who you felt you hated, she had never understood a complexity like this before, it didn't seem right to want to aid Kin even though their relationship was in such terrible condition. Kin rose up, staring at the next panel. It read a longer riddle this time, one that made Kin's eyes open in shock, it was much harder. ~~~We all move through time the same, one of us is but solitary, the other has some friends within him, the other is an army of thousands~~~ I was afraid this would happen, this one is a three part answer...meaning if even one is off then it's still wrong. With any luck a single answer will be considered correct and it will narrow it down to two ones left, so I can take it slow......let's think...... Things were starting to get intense, unaware to the group, outside the pires of the city were beginning to spin faster, before the rotation was too slow to be seen but as the city slowly raised in elevation the drills began to spin faster and faster. Time passeby more and more, taking it's course, after another thirty seconds passed and an even longer blast of electricity surged it's way through Kin, his condition was withering away now. His thinking skills were beginning to slow down. His stomache tightened and he feel down again, his vomitted, not much came out because he didn't have much in his stomache. oh god.............come on...............time...time......time...... The image of a clock drifted through his head, it was like a terrible joke, a riddle about time, and he felt like time was slowing down so painfully. He saw the screeching gears inside a clock, all grinding against one another in slow motion. Then they all rusted and slowed to a stop, falling free, dozens of pieces all over the place. thats it!!! Kin forced himself to his feet and stumbled forward to the board, almost knocking into it full force, he used the panel to hold himself. Another surge of electricity pulsed through his body, each one was doubling in length and increasing in voltage as well, he couldn't hold on much longer. As it passed by, and left him again, he scraped into the board with the blue point. "sundial" followed by "clock" and then "hour glass" The words all glowed a brilliant green and the board retreated into the wall, Kin falling down to the floor. The next panel began to shift around, Kin let out a deep sigh, as he saw that there lay no riddle, but rather a key to the next room. The gauntlet popped open, relreasing Kin from it's grip. He took in a deep breath, and struggled to pull himself up. "Ayane....Se-Seisho..........check the next room...............uggh gaah..........Itami, Becky................grrrr" Ayane nodded to Kin's words dashing past him and pulled the key from the panel and using it to open the next door. While Itami went to go gelp KIn up, looking to Becky. Itami- come on, I can't lift him myself. Saiyuki, just wait, your no use with that broken arm..... |

Saiyuki knew that everybody was still human, though many people boasted supernatural skills. He could tell Kin wasn't strong physically as he was mentally. He wondered what would be better in this situation, being able to endure the lightning, or try to finish it as quick as possible. Saiyuki watched as most of his team wanted to do something to help. He felt the same, though he had to leave it to Kin. Saiyuki felt Kin's limit was coming up from his body language. It seems he answered the second riddle. Come on, just one more. Saiyuki grimaced as the architects just had to input a electrical device that just kept adding more and more voltage. Kin had already vomited somewhat. He did not want Kin to end up helpless or to recieve any permanent damage. But once again, he got up and finished the job. The screen turned green and the guantlet released Kin from the high voltage shocks. He was just about to dash to see Kin's condition when he heard his words. It seemed he couldn't even string together a full sentence, but no lasting damage from the looks of it. He heard Itami's words and decided it would be best, though he did not want to be unhelpful. Is resting not a choice? From the looks of it, Kin needs it. I hope Ayane and Seisho don't overextend themselves. 2 injured from 2 traps....it's not a good sign. |

"Got it," Becky said, hurrying over and grabbing one of Kin's arms to help him stand. "It's a good thing you're on our team," Becky said nervously, watching as Ayane started towards the next room. She looked towards the monitors briefly, then turned her attention back to Kin. She was apprehensive, worried about what may be in the next area, especially since Kin and Saiyuki would be down for a short amount of time at least, from what it looked like. The definately wasn't any chance of turning back, either. The traps may have reset themselves while Kin was dealing with the riddles, and she wondered how much more twisted it could get. It's like someone's idea of a game, and I'm beginning to think that we may be losing... Or just playing an unbeatable game. |

ooc: I don't want to keep skipping people, but it is imperative that we hurry up, I can't stress it enough. we're the furhterest behind and sacha and hero are considering making the finale thread without us. ic: Using Becky and Itami for help Kin slowly made his way into the next room Ayane already standing there looking at the trap before them. This room was a little longer than usual, after about the first five feet the floor went into all tiles and alone the walls of the tiled area were small pin sized holes. Kin turned his head toward Ayane and nodded to the side, she understood him perfectly. She reached into her back pocket and picked out a kunai, then flung it downward, pinning into a tile. Instantly a flurry of needles shot from both sides of the room pummeling into the kunai and knocking it off the tile till it lay gently on top of it, not pressing the tile downward any more. Itami- "Why am I not surprised....with our luck those things are poisoned too, theres no way to get across without taking at least a thousand of those things." Kin then turned his head to the side, he had been looking for this since they got into the room, another arm slit, just like in the very first room. Except it was on the side of the wall instead, and there was one on either side of the wall. It required TWO people willing to harm themselves. And at the rate they were going it was bound to be something worse than just breaking their arm this time. Ayane- "I'll get one of them" Kin-"no" Ayane- "you are incapacitated, thus command falls to me, the second highest ranked here, call the shots now." Kin-"one....I've never felt better........two...In that case what do you plan to do when that thing lobbs off your arm, your the only other Jounin here, what if we run into another one of those golem things at the end of all this." Ayane- "wouldn't be the first time I lost a part of my body." Ayane then turned from Kin jabbing her arm into the wall slot, she gripped a rotating lever at the end of it, and heard gears snap into place holding her arm there, making her unable to remove it. Now all that was needed was another person willing to put their arm in the wall. Kin grit his teeth together in anger, he tried to pull himself up on his own, Itami sensed this and let go, thinking Kin was going to walk. But after only a few seconds his knee gave way and he was about to go down, definetly far too much weight for Becky to sustain, Itami reached in again helping support Kin. Itami- he's recovering that fast!!! That's ridiculous, at this rate he'll be walking along on his own in 5 minutes, albeit with a limp, but god!! He must be used to being beaten nearly to death!!!! What a monster... ooc: the arm slots cut and tear at the persons arm slowly as they turn the knob on the inside, then once the knob snaps into place, the thing crushes their arm much like it did to saiyuki, but it then releases a spray of salt water onto the arm making it burn. Afterward it releases, allowing them to walk across the threshold safely. |

Saiyuki walked besides Becky as they moved to the next room. He looked at the door for a few seconds before moving along with the rest of the team. When they reached the room, Saiyuki could see that Ayane was observing something. Saiyuki noticed it too, the difference. Kin gave a order, which wasn't surprising. What was surprising was that kunai was bombarded by a large amount of needles. Saiyuki shook his head. No way the architects would have expected them to get past this alive. Saiyuki guessed there would another price. Hmm......this is not good. We won't last much longer and we might not be able to turn back. Saiyuki was thinking for a bit when he noticed the two arm slits. Saiyuki gave a small groan. He was getting sick of them. It seemed the architects had a penchant of using the arm to channel pain. Saiyuki glanced at Kin. He seemed to be recovering, which was a positive sign for the team. Saiyuki narrowed his eyes when he saw Ayane volunteer to lose her arm and obstinately ignored Kin's orders. Saiyuki had to agree with him; if a Jounin was impaired, then the chances of them surviving decreased. And they needed all the chances they could get. I sacrificed my arm so that higher-ranked people wouldn't have to.......she is stubborn. Saiyuki pondered for a bit. He was considerering losing his other arm. The pain would be greater than last time and he would become nearly totally useless. Using his already broken arm as a scapegoat was out of the question, for the arm might never recover if it was subject to two successive breaks. However, if nobody else volunteered then Saiyuki would go forth to the other arm slit. Saiyuki looked at Kin for a moment and then took a step forward. His words carried his meaning perfectly "If no one minds......." |
