Sorry I took so long to reply. Incognito, I am going to send a jutsu perfect to end out guy, needs both of them to do, so either can strart it.

"Take this," I yelled as I char aged the guy, using my lightning to guide me. I hit the man with my swords, and he fell back a bit, but then disappeared in a puff of smoke.
"Kazuna, turn the lights on. It doesn't help much," I shouted and then we were back in the light.
The nin was across the room, looking at us, a murderous look in his eyes.
"Time to die," He said, made a few signs and then I felt myself freeze. Looking down, which I had to strain my neck to do, and barley did it, I saw I was covered in shadows.
"Shadow manipulation huh?" I said, Kazuna look happy about that.
"Yes," the ninja said, moved his hand and the grip tightened on my, my neck straight now.
I almost missed the next part, and if I had blinked I would have definitely. Kazuna suddenly broke from the shadows rip, a second later she was on the guy, he let out a scream and I felt myself released. Still staring I saw Kazuna punching the nin, but then she was shaken off and hit the wall. I did not waste this opportunity to strike.
"Snake, Monkey, Bird," I mumbled has I formed the signs, then plunged my blades to the ground. The nin saw me right after the lightning was in, he charged, and a scond later he was in the air, and I saw Kazina in the air. She kicked down and he fell to the ground hard.
"Looks like that's done," Kazuna said.
"Not so fast," the nin said and got up, ready to attack.

The two of them had managed a good distance with ease, and had watched, impressed, as Korah used his seeking attack. They saw the spears of ice repeatedly punching through the missing-nin's seemingly impervious skin, and then, when the jutsu was finally finished, both ninjas fell forward.
The two of them jumped forward, Shinjiro's speed allowing him to reach an unconscious Korah before he hit the ground. It was no caring catch, however. Shinjiro simply grabbed hold of the back of the boy's shirt, holding him up forcibly, then putting one arm across his shoulders, holding him up, "What now, Suika? You're the medical trainee, how long will it take him to recover?"
She bent down, looking at him for a long moment, "I'm not sure. He's completely drained, but he said he kept chakra stored in that sword. So maybe that will speed his recovery a little. Either way, I don't think he'll be much use without proper rest."
"Hm. He might still make a good distraction, though." Shinjiro said, "We'll bring him with us for the time being, I think. We need to find the others. They might not have had as much luck fighting their enemies."

Okay, sense Incognito hasn't posted, I'll just go from where I let my last one

"How did you?" I said, referring to the now standing ninja.
"None of your business," He said, made a few signs, and I felt the wave as he hand hit the ground. So he was an earth user? Good, I knew how to deal with those, most in my family used lightning and earth. I took the wave, Kazuna did, though not as well.
"Follow my lead, and keep that fire up," I told her calmly and ran forward. Right away he summoned a few earth snakes, they flew at me, but I sliced at them with my blades. Kazuna did the same, smashing with her foot. The nin did it again, and again. Each time the result was the same. It was actually getting kind of fun to watch him try to take us down.
But that feeling lasted about, a millisecond. That's because a millisecond later the nin came at us, rock vines reaching from his hands. He charge, ready to strike at a moments notice. We took about a second to register what he was doing, and that was a second to long. The next thing I saw was a tangle of light brown, and the ceiling. I was flat on my back, Kazuan was in the air though, she had dodged the attack. Quickly, and accurately, she aimed thin fire needles, they hit the man, right through his checks, but all he did was laugh, and charge at her.
Immediately I jumped up, and ran to block the attack. I was a moment to early though. Instead of stopping the enemy from hitting Kazuna, I made it so Kazuna missed the enemy nin. I was hit with a fireball, and landed, rolling, on the ground. Kazuna let out a small pain scream, and hit the wall behind me. The man laughed and walked over to her. I rolled on my stomach, and watched in horror as he kicked her back across the room. He acted all normal, as if kicking a person across a long room was okay, for him it might have been.
Though I didn't listen to find out. In my rage, I got up, picked up my swords, and yelled, "Lightning Bolt Fang."
Lightning crackled around my blades as I raised them, a moment later there was a crack, and the ceiling gave way over the enemy ninja. He had a second to react, and was to slow. the tieling covered him, he emerged, unphased, but the attack wasn't done. I smiled, pointed my blades at him, and a lightning bolt crashed down where he was. The first attack had been to make a clear view, this was the real one. It was pure luck though he had kicked Kazuna hard a moment ago, and she had rolled a out of the attack.
I ran to her side.
"You okay?" I asked her.
"Yeah," She replied weakley. "But we need to take this guy out, I'm not sure how long we can last like thins."
"Yeah I know, I got an attack, but it will take some more time to do. And your help. So stay here and rest for now, I need to get this guy weak, and the whole ceiling down." Before she could say anything about my plan, I left.
The enemy was already out, he was standing just like before, unphased. "That all you got?" he asked.
"Not even close," Was my reply, and he didn't seem to have listened to it.
I didn;t care, because in a moment I would be looking at him, like he had had us.
"Lightning Dragon Tornado" I yelled, and a moment later was spinning as hard as I could.Soon a blue entity emerged from the lightning that poured out of my every fiber. I had to be precise on this attack though, one bit to much, and not only would I not be able to control it, my final move would be totaled, before it even started. The dragon emerged, it's torso spinning. But instead of hitting the man in front of me with the full of it, I aimed it up warded. A bit hit my opponent though, but that was a small force, the rest tore the ceiling apart, then went right up into the sky.
"Now Kazuna!" I yelled, and saw some fire balls go up word, I made the dragon move next to them, it kept going, and then there was a boom. The dragon was gone, and above there was a swirling blue mass, gray right above it, like a backdrop.
"Kirin" I said softly, but the man I was fighting still heard it, fear rushed over his face.
I raised my blade, let out a war cry, and then shot a small beam up to the sky. It went fast and high, right into the mass of blue, with a deathly and sickening crack, it exploded, coming down at my in a dragon form. I tensed, and waited for the dragon to land on me. But it never did. Right when i was about to hit me, I slashed down with my blade, and it tunneled to my opponent. The man screamed, and I mean screamed, it reached over the deathly explosion sound the dragon made. Yet the attack wasn't over yet. The tail of the dragon had landed over me, like I wanted to, and I sucked in the electricity. Then charged through the dragon, doing the same, my blades extended the whole time. When I got near the man, all I could suck up was away, and I stabbed the man. The blades dug through his shoulders, and he screamed again. I had focused all the electricity I had sucked into the blades.
There was another crackle, a loud one, and then I brought my blades out. The man in front of me was dead. I was sure of it. Good, we had won. I felt great, on top of the world, like a million bucks, for a half a second. Because a moment later, my body felt drained, and weak. My legs gave way, and I fell to the floor, knocked out.
So portray Cole, if you do and he is awake, as ill and sick. He will be going to the hospital for some time, all the attacks he has done over his level has hurt him to much, and so he will be in the hospital for a long time.

This is very long and may be confusing, but if you still have any questions by the end ask and I will answer. Should we PM the other writers?
Itachi~~
I watched in horror as the figure emerged from the whole in the roof and dropped to the marble floor in front of me. The way his body swayed before he hit the floor, and how he seemed to take no precautions to save himself from the long fall was utterly familiar. The figure stepped forward until he was ten feet away, then he laughed.
"You made it here fast brother! I did not expect you for another year or so."
"I had to live up to something," I managed to spit out through gritted teeth.
He cocked his head, "Have you used it yet?" He was genuinely curious.
"Enough for me to kill you."
He dropped into a ready position, his hand rising to rest on the sword hilt poking over his shoulder, "You will only be able to kill me once you have completely given yourself to the demon."
"I beg to differ" I snarled as I drew my sword and charged. He waited till hte last second then drew his sword in a blinding movement and knocked me aside. I laded smoothly and swung again, but he was waiting for me. I cursed and jumped back to catch my breath.
Each time our swords met sparks flew, illuminating his demon like eyes. I forced their similarity to my own out of my head and forced myself to attack. I did not find the resistance of his blade, instead I found myself being flung through the air. I instinctively sheathed my sword and loosened my muscles to soften the incoming impact. I slammed into the wall and fell to the ground. I jumped to my feet and dove to the side right as the jet of flame hit where I had fallen.
I cursed and threw two shuruken and a wall of fire to conceal my real attack. When the smoke was cleared I fell from the sky, a chidori clawing up my arm. He grinned and his hands flew forward to clamp around my arm, "Too slow." i tried to kick him, but I was already flying.
I flowed chakra through my feet so that I slammed into the wall feet first. The weight of my body compacted my legs and I pushed off, twice as fast as the first time.
"How about this?"
"Better, but not good enough." He emphasized his words with a kick that sent me straight up. Right as I was about to fall he apeared above me, "good by Brother." He grabbed the back of my shirt and threw me up even higher.
I twisted in the air and made hand signs. When I opened my hands so that my open palms were pointing towards my brother flams shot out of my body and formed into a line of fire that charged him. The body disapeared in a cloud of smoke and a kick in the small of my back sent me flying back towards the floor.
My brother appeared below me, hi sword braced where I would fall.
Anger surged through my body that this would be it. The mark on my arm flared and squirmed up my arm. My arm flashed upwards and grabbed my sword. In a moment his sword was flun out wide and my leg colided with the side of his head.I landed neatly on the ground and kicked his still falling body.
When he rose there was a develish grin etched onto his face. Gate one. You will be faster and stronger, but you will still never win."
I charged him, but the fight progressed nearly as it had in the beginning, my newfound speed counting for nothing against his. The anger flared up again in waves that rolled over me, forcing me to go faster and hit stronger. He only smiled wider.
"Gate two. Your speed and strength further increase. You also gain access to the demons chakra, if only to heal you. Too bad you will never reach the third gate.
This time I smlied, "What if I'm already there?"
His eyes went wide and my flist slipped past his defenses, sending a surge of pure chakra into his body.
I stood watching his body amidst the cloud of dust and opened myself up to the ocean of rage in my arm. My body went rigid as pain coursed through me. My body torqued and bended, my muscles growing and reshping to make me faster than I had ever been before. When I opened my eyes the room seemed as bright as day. So, the demon enhances everything, not just muscles. A wolfish grin spread all over my face. It felt good, the power. I could now see how my brother had become addicted to it. But under all the power, there was still a feeling of taint, as if it was poisoned.
My brother rose and looked at me, "This ought to be interesting."
He charged me and his sword flashed out. To me it seemed to be going in slow motion and I easily paried. As we fought his speed increased and I could see how much he had been playing with me before.
Use me a small voice whispered in the back of my mind whispered.
For some reason I whispered back I am.
No. Like this. The rage seemed to take over my limbs and force me to move, as if it was an entity in itself.
I intercepted his blows three times and then my foot slammed into his body and he flew back. My hands slipped together and formed hand signs in lightning fast motions. My hands opened and three flaming dragons roared towards my brother. He lept straight up but they followed him. He flashed handsigns and three water snakes devoured my dragons.
But I was already ready with another attack. Black demon fire was formed around my hand in an ever shifting ball.
Demon Fire Rasingan! The voice yelled.
The ball slamed into my brothers chest and he gasped, but it was short lived. He formed a hand sign and the ground reached up to grab me. The rage liquified the mark and turned them into spikes that stabed into the sky.
As the fight continued I was vaguely aware of being concerned for my health. I was performing maneuvers on the level of a jounin, not a chunin exam participent. However, whatever happened I would accept, so long as I avenged the years of pain caused by my brother.
My decision feuled the anger and turned it into the crystal sharp edge of revenge. I slowly brought my hands together and formed ten quick signs. The demon's chakra flowed out of my pores and covered my skin a radiant mass flames. My brother leapt forward, his sword bare, but I caught it and threw him aside. My sword came around and slashed through his shirt. I cursed my miss but followed him, my blade swinging through the air in gestures so fast they would be invisible to the human eye.
He dodged and blocked but he never got an attack in. Eventually it seemed as if I was doomed to fail but then he faltered. His foot caught on a stone and his sword sagged for a second. But that was a second too long. My blade cut through his skin and pierced his heart like butter.
"Good bye brother." I whispered. I pulled my sword. The control the voice had over me disapeared and all of the anger left, only to be replaced with calmness and exhaustion. I took a step back, but I was roted to the spot.
Flames poured out of the wound, and then his eyes and then his ears. The flames began to pool on the ground and then to solidify and form a shape. A giant wolf peered at me from flaming eyes.
"Aaaaaah" It sighed, "The rage. So different from the apprehension of the boy I cursed so long ago. It's refreshing." It's voice was roush but whyspery, and purely evil. "Do you know why you won?"
"Because my brother was a son of a bitch whos time had run out", for somee reason I wasn't scared.
It barked out cruel glutteral laughter that made me cringe, "Good guess, but no. I need violence and rage, and what was coming from you was entirely too good to resist."
"But you weren't in me."
"I wasn't?" Its eyebrows raised, "Did I not take over and force you to fight?"
For the first time that night fear coursed through me. The power that the voice, which was the wolf's, had given me had been so great that I knew I would never be able to fight it. "What do you want?"
"You. I want you to be my vessel that I use to deliver pain upon the world."
I shook my head, "Im sorry, but thats not an option." The fear was gone again. I would either be taken over, or killed on the spot.
It laughed again, "What do you mean human?"
"I'll kill myself if you try to use me for evil." An idea entered my head, "But I have a proposition."
It grinned, "You are a very odd human, and so different from when I first met you. What happened?"
"I lost everything I love, and no I have nothing more to loose."
"What do you propose?"
"You can live in me" I said, "But, I will remain master of my body. If I have any idea of what is going to be in store for me there will be a long road filled with violence and death, but I will not be alive to go down it if you try and take me over now. You can let me rule, and feed off the anger and hate in combat, or you can wander without a body until someone is foolish enough to summon you again" I paused.
It thought for a second, "I accept. But I hope my presense tortures you more than you have the power to withstand."
"Thats all you can do."
I stretched out my hand and the wolf licked it. Pain coursed through my body and the wolf began to slowly soak into my hand.
You are not as strong as I thought. You need rest. The wolf whispered.
I will rest as soon as I see what happened too my other team mates.
I walked out of the arena while sensing my arm. The mark had stretched up to my elbow, and it was now a purplish red instead of the black it had been before.
By the way, I like this color better. i said.
