Snow Fight!

Who: EVERYONE.
What: Snowball free-for-all.
When: February 25th, during the Harvest Moon Valentine's Event!
Where: The road and the area between Houses 16, 19, and 27
Summary: Who knows how it started, but there's a war being waged in the street- and you've just been tagged a few times by a snowball. Join in on the fun, seek revenge, or just try to get out of the fray! Maybe make a new friend or two, you never know what will happen with those Heart Meters!
Rating: S for snow.

It was a calm day until someone decided to be a little mischievous. But accidents do happen, and one snowball lead to another until a full out war started in the middle of the village. Everyone for themselves, pelting each other, dragging the poor passerby into the chaos with either a well aimed or not-so-well aimed snowball.

[He taps his chin in thought.] Too tacky. What infuriates women more is when you mess with their looks. Trust me.

[See: Bulma and Bulla.]

That's a daaangerous game. [But he smirks, as he picks up a snowball. It's a little larger than the others, with a hint of color bleeding from somewhere deep in the center.] One of these should do the job, though.

[He takes the chosen snowball from Shikamaru, inspecting it.]

My, that's pretty sneaky if I do say so myself. I think this will do nicely. How'd you manage this?

[He pulls out a jar of grape jam from the hammerspace that is chuunin vest pockets.]

It's not hard, you just use a spoon and scoop a little inside.

[He certainly wouldn't of thought to do that. But it'll work, he'll get back those little ingrates now...]

Good. Well, then if you'll excu-

[But he's suddenly cut off-!]

[With a snowball to the head! More specifically his hair.

Hiding behind a tiny fortress of ice was Karis and her avalanche that was ready to be released. She'd been eyeing Vegeta and Shikamaru, and decided to let off a warning shot for now. She kept her head poked out from behind her cover, giggling like a schoolgirl.]

[dot dot dot

Shikamaru looks down at Vegeta's feet. No, he's still standing within the lines he carefully drew. Maybe the girl - because it can only be a girl with that giggling - didn't see it.]

Oi, girl. [He sounds bored, but not too bothered. It doesn't affect him enough to care, so for now it only warrants a warning in his book as he goes back to making his snowballs.] This is a neutral zone. You can't fire here.

[He however, whips his head around to glare murderously at Karis. It's her.]

You'd best listen to him, or else. You wouldn't want to see me angry, now would you?

[Actually, she does want to see you angry Vegeta. Be sure to demonstrate to her why this is a bad idea.]

Neutral zone huh? Even more reason to capture it then. [Snowballs supplied to a single person is one thing. Snowballs supplied to all potential opponents are another, and she's not having that!

Have a second warning shot, but this one's aimed at Shikamaru this time.]

[Did she just--

It hits him smack in the nose. He blinks, wrinkling his nose at the snow sticking to his face and spitting out a piece that went in his mouth.]

It's not wise... [He begins, wiping the snow off his face with a foreboding tone] ...to attack a man with a fully stocked arsenal at his disposal.

Wah- [He moves to the side, just to make sure that snowball doesn't hit him, watching in a little bit of shock as it smacks Shikamaru in his face. His eyes narrow back at Karis, giving her one of those trademark stone faces of his.]

I don't thinks she understands what she's up against. You're dancing with death here, woman.

[Well, snowball death.]

Wouldn't be the first time. [Nor the hundredth time, if she was actually keeping count.

She scoops a small bit of snow and packs it down.] Though I wouldn't be attempting this if I didn't have an army of my own!

[The tiny snowball she just made was simply just a channel for her magic, as it's now going to be a pile of slush on the ground. The stock behind her rose up on their own, thanks to the spell she's got going now, and some of it is going to be sent flying in their direction! But only one section of it, as it would be quite idiotic of her to use it all at once, though it was still a good amount.]

[Shikamaru's eyes narrow as he watches the tiny snowball melt, aware from the corner of his eye that there's more coming. More problematic than he was expecting.

So she's going to be troublesome, is she?]

Oi, ossan. Let's say we team up this once, eh?

[Those snowballs will probably hit any second, but unless Vegeta does something about it, he'll let it ride. He can dodge most, and wants to see what they'll do.]

[He shoots a glare over, for two reasons: that word and the fact that he's being reminded that he's old to begin with. He hates being called old in any fashion.]

Hey! I've got a name, you know. [But there's no more time for bickering or even an agreement or not to team up- those snowballs are too close now for words. Vegeta wants to know too what will happen with them seeing as this snow witch is controlling them, so he stands poised, ready to dodge.]

[There wasn't anything special with this round of snowballs, besides the floating effect and how they were sent off. Essentially, it was the equivalent of a large group of people throwing many different sized snowballs at the same time.

With a few that are the size of the midsection of a snowman, but, eh, details.]

[Shikamaru lets some of the smaller ones bombard his back, partly to see what they're made of, and partly to protect his stash. Other than the GIANT ONES (what the hell, woman o_o), they don't seem like too much of a threat. But a declaration of war is a declaration of war, and it's not like he can sit still for the rest.

He grunts as his back is pelted before looking back over to Vegeta.]

It's not like you bothered teaching me it, you know. But if you want to give me your name now, you can use the snowballs here as exchange. How's that sound?

[The little ones are dodged as best as he can, even though they are admittedly a little hard to see since the white blends in with the terrain, so a few manage to get him. He's not letting the huge snowman-midsection ones hit them though, punching through one of them. It still explodes, covering him completely in snow, spitting out some of it that managed to get in his mouth.]

Alright, alright, you've made your point. Vegeta. Now hand me a few of those snowballs- let's make sure this woman learns what it is to mess around with the wrong people, shall we?

[Don't worry guys, that was just the first wave, and she's packing another small channel for the second. Karis is ready to launch another volley, but waiting to see what sort of return fire is in store for her first.]

On it.

[FIRST UP ARE THE SPLATTERERS. She's a woman, so Shikamaru still feels the obligation to go easily on her because he's dumb like that and thinks chivalry matters in a snowball fight. For now.

In any case, for the time being Vegeta's wish is Shikamaru's command, and as such he'll be handed snowballs as fast as he can chuck them. It's like an assembly line here.]

[Shikamaru might hear Vegeta laughing quietly to himself as he's chucking those splatterers at Karis. It's not as fast or as hard as he can throw them, being that is arm is still visible as he throws, but it's still fast. A few of them are purposely thrown to zip past Karis's head with deadly accuracy, acting as a distraction, exploding on a tree behind her before he starts aiming directly at her chest. His goal is to try to keep her from finishing that second channel.

Next to go is that ice fortress/barrier/wall thing...he's got a plan.]

[The distraction works like a charm, for her head turns to look where the snowballs land before getting nailed in the chest. It was such a surprise to Karis that she actually dropped her channel.]

Ah, jeez! [Time for this mage to try and scramble back behind her wall of ice for some cover, and to remake her channel as swiftly as possible.]

[Somewhere in that pile of splatters will come a snowball that's a little bigger than the rest; a little more carefully packed. Shikamaru passes on a few words of wisdom before he relinquishes it.]

Don't throw this one at her. Aim it at the base of her fort.

[Shikamaru doesn't even need to tell him what it does. Vegeta was already planning on collapsing her wall his own way, but if this means he doesn't have to reveal any of his power, he'd gladly do that instead. He looks down at the snowball handed to him, and cracking a wickedly amused smile at his compatriot.]

Looks like you've read my mind. Say, I think it would be wise to take advantage of this while she's scrambling to regroup. Surely you've got some tricks up your sleeve for that. I think giving her a surprise would be in order, catch my drift?

[Karis is making sure to pack a few extra channels for her to use, should she end up dropping one again.

She'll peek over her ice wall for now, expecting a barrage of those splatters again.]
