[b][i]“What the fu..”[/i][/b] Fuyushi quickly caught on and formed the tiger seal, activating a jutsu that only he himself knew of. In the back of his head, something stirred, opening an eye in the back of his head. Just as he thought. An ambush.. seemed the new hokage had seen fit to be rid of him now, though Fuyushi would've seen that coming ages ago really. He had been living on time that wasn't his. He moved his body forwards quickly, throwing his foot backwards and catching Daiki in the midriff instinctively with this swift backwards kick. Whilst his foot was extended backwards, his body moved forwards, his body nearly horizontal while one of his legs kept him upright. While standing like that he quickly formed a single handseal, the horse seal. He then exhaled and blew out a steady stream of fire. [b][i]“[url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Fire_Release:_Great_Fire_Annihilation]Katon: Gōka Mekkyaku[/url]!”[/i][/b] As soon as he knew for sure that the two in front of him were burned to a crisp, or atleast gotten rid of, he pulled his foot back from Daiki's ribs and planted it in the ground, swinging his other foot around backwards in a circle, using the momentum and twisting his body to attempt and heelkick Daiki in the face. Whether that was succesful or not, he'd quickly use the spinning motion to grab Daiki's shoulder and push off against him, going over him in a summersault and landing behind him, before taking off through the window he'd been assaulted from earlier. With an agile jump the man cleared the entire distance from this building to the next, before pushing off to the next. It was quite obvious the man was a shinobi. Saburo on the other hand, had noticed quickly that the man noticed what was up, given that the man suddenly formed a handseal. Something happened, causing the man to realize that Daiki was behind him. Weird.. since he never turned his head. A sensory? .. no problem. Saburo undid the erotic jutsu, and drew a kunai quickly, spinning it on a finger before gripping it to ready for combat. Unluckily, the man was agile and swift, casting a jutsu ahead of time. [color=415E79]“Yuen!”[/color] he yelled whilst quickly jumping aside. If she'd been a genin he'd have gone through the hassle of 'saving' her but he estimated she was able to help herself despite her feelings of inadequacy. Diving to the side, he landed on hand and feet, barely escaping the heat as the stream of fire went against the wall across the door - luckily it was concrete and didn't burn down the entire building. That'd have made the mission indefinetely harder. As soon as the fire subsided Saburo ran into the room, hoping to catch Fuyushi still inside, but he only managed to catch a glimpse of him as he escaped the building. [color=415E79]“Daiki, Yuen, lets go!”[/color] he'd yell at them while jumping through the window, not giving Yuen or Daiki a chance to recuperate at all, chasing the man instantly. [hr] [center][IMG]http://i59.tinypic.com/2colijd.png[/IMG][/center] [center][h2][color=black]Ayame Choko, “the Sewstress”[/color][/h2] [@J8cob] [@Savato][/center] [hr] Sitting comfortably in her chair, Ayame glanced at Fujitora as he went off to do his little charade. She could only sigh and shake her head, pinching her nose bridge in annoyance as she glared down at the floor. Some things would change, but one of those wouldn't be Fujitora. [color=black][b]“You're not exactly helping, Fujitora.”[/b][/color] she said with a stern voice. But he wouldn't get the hint and even put on that ridiculous, annoying music he'd play when he was fooling around in the office while Ayame was actually doing work. However, Fujitora somehow had the brilliant idea to straight up ask Tsukiko if she wanted to kill him. [i]Way to go, Fuji[/i] she thought to herself, [i]mock the beast so it bites.[/i] Ofcourse, Tsukiko had always preferred Fujitora over Ayame for some reason that Ayame would never understand. Who could ever like Fujitora? That said.. he'd know how to deal with this woman. And while Ayame was manipulative and deceitful if she had to be, Tsukiko was a different case entirely, reacting only well to Ayame when she used flattery and making Tsukiko feel important. Ayame stayed quiet when Tsukiko spoke to Fujitora - there was really nothing she had to say about it, and Tsukiko was wise to not accept the drink straight away. Even if it hadn't been tampered with, Tsukiko would know better. But in truth, the beer wasn't poisoned. Tsukiko was too valuable to murder like that. For now anyway. But when she turned her attention to Ayame, she sat up straight a bit more and let her fingers fill the gaps between eachother, folding her hands together and sitting like that, gently sweeping the chair left and right using her leg. [color=black][b]“I don't think you understand why I killed him. He wasn't the Hokage at that moment. He was a symbol. A symbol of hope and all that idealogical stuff. I would explain but I know you well enough to say it'd go over your head, but in short, he was a symbol to people.”[/b][/color] Slowly she'd bend over and grab her glass of water, drinking it slowly before putting it down again and folding her hands again. [color=black][b]“If I had let him live, people wouldn't accept me. He had to go. It was the only way really. And besides.. the statement had to be made. Zeno Hakarasu wasn't as strong as people perceived him to be. But look at me? Do I look strong? Perhaps not. But I certainly am. Stronger than Zeno, anyway.”[/b][/color] she'd say, still sweeping the chair left and right whilst she sat in a relatively relaxed position, looking Tsukiko in the eyes. She was being sincere and Tsukiko could notice that clearly, if she wanted to believe what Ayame said. [color=black][b]“And you are very, very naive if you think that either me, or Fujitora, trusts you one hundred percent. After all, you know as well as I do that you can smell the 11th corps around your house pretty much at all hours of the day, and that is no coincidence. And I'd be naive to think you'd ever come to trust me one hundred percent after what I did. Life works that way.”[/b][/color] she'd say, glancing at Fujitora as if to look if he agreed or not. Truthfully Ayame had no idea, he was a bit weird and while he stayed away from idealogies and stuff, unlike Ayame, he did have some thoughts on trust and morality and the likes. Maybe he didn't like what Ayame said - but now was not the time to speak of that either way you'd look at it. [color=black][b]“And you are right Tsukiko, one day you'll cease being useful to me or Fujitora, just like I'll cease to be useful to you. But, since we are genuine friends, and not colleagues like me and Zeno, I can say happily that I'd not kill you. Zeno died for bussiness, not because I didn't like him. Simple as that.”[/b][/color] [color=black][b]“That said, you're no symbol of anything, so there's nothing to gain from me killing you is there? And I'm afraid that you'll never have to grovel at my feet either, nor Fujitora's. Unless, perhaps, you'd want to be best friends with me, in which case do as you please. Regardless of what you do and don't do, I have some news for you. I didn't call you here just to tell you how it was. You're a smart, mature woman with life experience - you can figure it out for yourself.”[/b][/color] Ayame stood up and walked to the cabinet nearby, opening it and retrieving a small box, akin to a jewelry box but perhaps slightly larger. She handled it with care and then closed the doors behind her on the cabinet, before walking back and gently putting the box on the table, in front of Tsukiko. [color=black][b]“From now on that'll be yours. You'll wear it because I tell you to, but also because I know that, really, you want to. It's time someone shows you some gratitude for your service to Konoha, unlike Zeno, who hadn't even intended to send you to become a hunter nin.”[/b][/color] As soon as Tsukiko opened the jewelry box, she'd find inside a white armband. On it was the symbol of Konoha, with next to it in black kanji the words 'Jonin Commander'. When Tsukiko would inevitably look at Ayame, to wonder if this perhaps was some sick joke, because ultimately it couldn't be serious, could it, she'd only see Ayame raising her glass of water with a smile, a genuine one at that, as affirmation that this was indeed serious. [hr] [center][h2][color=9e005d]Reijo Minamoru[/color][/h2] [@J8cob][/center] [hr] Reijo leaned back when Shin entered, nodding only slightly when Shin bowed, as a sign of acknowledging both the bow and returning a bow-resembling motion, though it was obviously light and highlit the difference in rank quite well. Shin's behavior, if anything, affirmed this even more. When Shin asked if the room was tapped, well.. Reijo just sat in silence, grinning softly to himself before Shin continued. He never received an answer on whether the room was tapped or not, though the question might've already answered itself for Shin. As Shin needlessly explained about the 11th, Reijo found himself waving the comment away. [color=9e005d][b]“I know, I know. They're a bit more than that, kind of the ROOT of our time, but I suppose that it boils down to spies with a strong set of combat abilities.”[/b][/color] Then Reijo listened some more, until it was said that Kaito and Reijo had had their differences and furthermore, that Kaito had always acted in favor of Konoha. Now that sollicited a smile from Reijo. [color=9e005d][b]“Yes boy, and I've always acted in favor of my clan, and through that, Konohagakure. We just have different ideas of going about it, is all. I'm sure he understands.”[/b][/color] The next set of words confused Reijo somewhat. Was.. was Kaito asking him to raze and plunder the immigrant housing areas? [color=9e005d][b]“You're kind of asking the impossible here. You're asking me to eliminate most of my.. work force. Yes, workforce. Those that work for my bussineses.”[/b][/color] [i]And Yakuza. Hopefully Shin got the hint.[/i] [color=9e005d][b]“Besides, what makes you think I'd go into Downtown and wreak havoc, and get away with it? Furthermore, what makes you think there wouldn't be retaliations? I'm afraid that that much is not possible. I know also that Kaito is smarter than this. The real problem is not the fact that the immigrants are here - it's the way Zeno allowed them to enter our society. When we allow them to become more than simple doorstops, [i]that's when troubles arrive.[/i] The laborers I can keep in check, but foreigners like Ayame and Fujitora.. well, you saw for yourself. It was beyond my power. We need to keep them low, and on the ground. Stop them from accessing higher positions, block them from military service above the rank of genin, etcetera! If Kaito would agree to these terms, well, I'd have but one demand for exerting my power to make it happen.”[/b][/color] [color=9e005d][b]“An alliance.”[/b][/color]
