Land of Rivers
There it finally was, another coveted fight between the empire and petty adversaries who promoted their unwarranted self-importance for far too long. These animals were coming by the thousands, the exact number being of a trivial importance to the Empress' right hand bodyguard, they were all just sacrifices for the Empress' unstoppable might and greatness. Men running amok as they were starting to kill each other as the Empress gave her righteous order to exterminate all those who opposed her. Yakoul would have huge trouble keeping its joy hidden as she stood next to the marvelous head figure of the empire, always a meter behind the woman slight to her right and arms always set behind its back as a sign of good manners and respect for its divine superior. Unlike most fighters, Yakoul stayed behind to insure the Empess' safekeeping and always be on the lookout for some self-righteous rebel who would more than likely try to sneak up on the leader.
Though focused on protecting the Empress, Yakoul couldn't help but to strengthen its hearing sense in order to capture the upcoming screams of the fools who would confront the empire's absolute power. All was ready, the basic troops were already running in to give and receive death while the high ranks were still preparing in order to manhandle the majority that resisted. Too bad Yakoul couldn't run in there without specific authorization, it would have loved to slaughter some poor souls under the name of its one and only leader. The skinny creature was wearing a peculiar costume, a basic marine-blue top with two rows of yellow buttons keeping it closed, which in turn concealed whatever would be behind that piece of clothes. It followed with a pair or orange shorts going along with stockings of the same color that rose up to the level of its knees. It didn't have the basic sandals like most Shinobi but thin, black shoes which correlated well its this creatures bizarre attitude.
"Why do those idiots even bother? The enemy is just a mess of weaklings after all, kuku~"
Said the creature of unknown sex, as it was fixating the opposing army with its enhanced hearing, it kept a quick eye on the two Jounin who flew, and from time to time it would peer down to check on that creepy clan member with squid-thing ability. Most of them were alright for Yakoul, as long as they kept their distances from the Empress. Currently in the battlefield there was a Jinchuuriki with a bunch of bugs and other super powers, Remi, a girl whom Yakoul seemed to enjoy the presence from time to time as well as pick on her when the urges came and went. Next to the Eight tails wielder was a Senju with the rare ability to use the Wood style, an ability that has proven to be quite dangerous in multiple aspects. Despite the flower seller's apparently peaceful intentions, Yakoul couldn't help but be very cautious with that person whenever she was left alone simply due to her overwhelming ability. That said, that imposing power was also something they shared in common, Yakoul and Keiko were very in-touch with nature. Finally there was Izari with his clan that allied the empire. Yakoul would be especially careful with this one, as his sporadic behavior he tried so hard to control could very well become a nuisance for the rest of the army. Though Yakoul had only heard rumors of his "dark" side, it was something that could be sensed by animal-like beings such as this bodyguard. There was just something off about him, which created a lot of distrust from the get go. But honestly, that made Yakoul more curious about people like him more than anything. It couldn't trust them, but it sure as hell wanted to know more about them.
