The troupe of trolls cleared the remainder of the forest that Setsu had fled to. They had expected to find him there, but there wasn't much for cover past the last trees. And so they spied the shinobi at the edge of a fissure crag that they knew to be very deep and too wide for him to easily jump across even with his demonstrated skill at leaping.
They had already decided to eat him, so they didn't want to down him with the chance that he'd fall and lowered their bows.
He was precariously perched on the ledge, threatening to fall at any moment.
The leader, who was now missing a tusk, stepped forward. He held his bow at the ready but seemed keen to engage in something of a closer range.
Setsu smiled and held his hands in front of him, and placed his hands together in what he understood was a handseal but was utterly foreign to the trolls. And with that, and nothing more, he stepped back and off the cliff. Gone.
Earth Release: Light-Weight Rock technique.
The trolls were confused, running to the ledge. Their eyes and ears confirming what they assumed which was that the shinobi was in freefall. However, as the ninja fell he began to angle out of a straight free fall, and began to arc upwards again. Completing the dramatic loop, Setsu popped back up onto the opposite ledge. Landing smartly with a salute and a smile to the troupe before running running further out of their range. They knew they were beat. The crag cut off their ability to pursue the troublemaker efficiently.
They stood there in dismay, momentarily. After standing there for a few minutes in silence, they dejectedly turned back towards where the cooked Wompa meat was. Poor trolls.
