Kaizou and his fellow prisoners were dropped off by the dragon carrying them rather roughly, earning the dragon a few nasty glares.  General Tatsuo's orders to pitch camp spread throughout the ranks, so the soldiers set to work, liberally employing the 'help' of the prisoners, who did so begrudgingly.  Kaizou kept his head down and got to work; a few of his 'associates' had come down with him, but right now, he was unable to locate them.

A dragon soldier approached him, "Hey!  Tanuki, get over here!"

Kaizou obliged.

"How's your shapeshifting?  We're looking for people to scout out the area."

"I'm a decent shapeshifter as long as I can keep my tail hidden," Kaizou replied.

"That's good enough," the soldier said, and escorted Kaizou to General Tatsuo, around whom a small crowd was gathering of dragon soldiers who had volunteered to scout, or youkai prisoners who had been selected for their scouting potential.

Shizuka had been singled out from among the prisoners and kept under guard.  It was to protect her from prisoners who may want to harm her as well as to make sure she doesn't try to use her powers to disorient or trap the dragon army.  They would keep her around until the camp was done, then they would corral all the prisoners together and have her trap them until they were needed again.  So Shizuka sat on the ground, surrounded by four soldiers.
