This time Genma managed the hand seals, flickering away a good ten feet and leaving the creature cuddling a nice bit of log. He fell into a defensive stance, kunai in one hand, senbon in the other, and deeply grateful to Raidou for helping him restock on weaponry.
"It's Shiranui actually," he said and watched as the beast dropped the log and came charing for him again, still wailing declarations of love.
"And I have a boyfriend. I'm sorry to hurt your feelings." More handflickers, more logs, more Genma translocating hither thither and yon trying to evade the beast.
