Having lost control of the [[Doki]], [[Tayuya]] sends them away to keep [[Shikamaru]] from using them against him. She once again does as Shikamaru had planned; not only has she gotten rid of the Doki, something he could not do, but in doing so she did not notice his shadow approaching her, allowing him to catch her. Tayuya activates level two of her [[cursed seal]] to escape his control. She then traps him in a [[genjutsu]], and Shikamaru unsuccessfully throws a [[kunai]] at her. Tayuya picks up the kunai and approaches him to kill him with it, only to be trapped by his shadow again. Having broken the genjutsu, Shikamaru threw the kunai to Tayuya to trick her into coming close enough that she couldn't overpower his shadow again.
