"Just peachy. Breathing hurts, I broke my hand on Yuto's face. I think i have to pee." Ray opened his eyes, slightly embarrassed. "Id run and hide but..." He tried to hide his face behind his arm.

Asami appears to scowl as she considers what Tsushi has said. "I... believe you may be right about this, Miss. I had not considered that point of view before. It may even be true that those two would find my worries to be insulting, given these circumstances." Her whole demeanor obviously relaxes, save for the intensity in her eyes and face. She turns to Sebaata, "Though I was considering leaving this place, I do not wish to now. I will see this through to the end and only then will I seek out those two we encountered." She turns back to Tsushi giving her a formal, appreciative bow.

"I must thank you for your words, Miss. They carry a wisdom it would do well for me to learn, if I am to live as you do. I am called Asami Watanabe. I hope only that you do me the honor of calling me friend when I have rightfully earned it, Miss...?" She lets the question hang.

“It was a good fight out there. Me and Gen fought for a while but decided not to die over it,” Akio casually responds to Mayumi not quite realizing the weight of the words he said. “I see you made it out unscathed from the looks of things,” he says while noticing her and Tsushi didn’t have any battle marks. “Tsushi! You must have done great out there. I’m thrilled you made it.”
Akio scanned the room and noticed Asami made it unscathed as well, his blood started to boil, “You made it too. Excellent.”
He relaxed himself and knelt down next to Ray giving him a jab in the arm, “Yeah me and Ray are a dynamite duo, but honestly Gen and Yuto were incredible too!”

"Tsushi, it would be my honor to be your friend Asami. That is, maybe after the exam is over." She chuckles a little with a glint in her eye, trying her hand at a lighthearted joke. "I've been through my fair share of differing emotions, so if you ever need anyone to talk to I'm here for you. You too, Sebaata, if you ever need anything."

All of a sudden, Tsushi heard Akio call out to her and her eyes snapped over to him and Ray. "Oh my-who did-what happ-did Ray almost die?!" Her eyes darted back and forth between the group who just walked through, all looking pretty worse for wear. "I'm glad you guys made it! We worked our butts off and it paid off greatly." She didn't want to give too much away, not knowing what parts of the exam were coming next.

"Well with that being settled... Our mission is complete... " He weaves a few hand signs and before he finishes his body begins to turn to sand. He falls apart in massive chances of sand until he is completely gone, leaving only a mound of sand behind.

When Akio punched Ray in the arm, he fell to the side. Too weak to complain. "Ouch"

“Well yeah, but he is alright now. Yuto is down for the count tho, you can thank Ray’s broken hand.” Akio said to Tsushi after she asked about Ray. “It must have been a breeze for you!” Akio looked around the room some more, ‘looks like Yuki and that boy he was paired with are the only ones of merit I don’t see yet. Hopefully they make it. Would be a shame to not have a chance to fight them.’ He though to himself. Just then he noticed Sabaata was gone. A pile of sand remained behind, ‘I wonder where he has gotten off to. Maybe he is transitioning back to the previous outfit. I wonder how he faired he has been quiet since I got here. Hopefully nothing happened to him out there.’ He thought as he slumped down against the wall next to Ray, ‘I am a bit tired tho so I’ll relax here for a moment.’

Mayumi watched the two and plopped herself down beside them, deciding to let the tension leave her body. "Well rest is important now, we do need to continue the exam after this part is done," she said eyeing Ray. She continued to note everyone in the room that had come through, and noted most of the shinobi she had encountered in the first portion of the exam.

Sticking close to one another Yuki and Hiraishin make their way to the center of the forest to complete this section of the exam. The pair, under the cover of a contained blizzard, did not have the misfortune (or fortune depending on who you ask) of coming across another of their colleagues. Arriving at the location, the two notice that they are not the first there and fighting had happened prior to their arrival. "We made it Yuki! That blizzard you created was a whirlwind of a travel method. But as long as it works I cant complain." After that, I'm positive(ly charged haha) that Yuki's powers are awesome. Are they similar to mine? I swore the air in our blizzard was 'electrifying'. I felt so secure for a first timer; more observation is necessary before a conclusion is reached. The duo gaze upon their destination with intensity and make a move to the door. Hiraishin, with kuni in grasp, whispers the secret word "Will". Without hesitation the door opens. Hiraishin turns to Yuki, lifts his arm with an open hand and asks "Shall we make our GRAND entrance?"

Yuki made a deep bow. "Of course, how else would we?" A howling wind accompanied snow and sparks as the duo stepped through the door, doing a pose they had practiced for entirely too long outside. "That was shockingly easy." Yuki looked up to Hiraishin for a follow-up one-liner.
