Roi blinked as the man... simply vanished, in a flash of light. He immediately halted his chase in the shadow of a tree as he looked around, wondering where this strange foe could have gotten off too. Was the man gone, or simply invisible?

Roi frowned. If his opponent could teleport, then he'd have done so earlier, unless it took more effort than it was worth. Which left the possible scenario of stealth of some sort, as well as the possibility that the man had been an illusion to begin with.

Well, that didn't give him too many options. Of course, if the man thought he could go stealth against a ninja, he had another thing coming. The Shadow Ninja slowly sank into a nearby shadow, to re-emerge from one in the trees above where his target had last been. Carefully, he looked around, watching everything, waiting for that tale-tell sound or otherwise that would give away the position of his opponent - whether it was some sort of illusionist or a stealthed fighter in silly clothing.
