Hozuki heard his comment about her attitude and how she would need to control her tongue when in Raijin's presence. Claiming that some had lost their tongues around her. Hozuki glared at the man from back of his head, wishing that he wasn't leading so she could just flip him off. A soft shiver went down her spine for wearing little clothes in this temperature. Lucky, being caked with dirt helps her stay warm. While she was watching each person and trying to remember them, Mizu was literally pressing herself up against Hozuki's leg out of being nervous. With a deep sigh, Hozuki wished she was able to wait outside, but noooooo that couldn't happen. Once they reached to the door, the girl at the door sneered at them as Hozuki basically gave her a look of 'Bring it on, b***h.' The way she looked at her sister a bit longer than it should, Hozuki felt defensive as she growled under her breath. Startled, Mizu looked up at her and yelped softly. Hozuki turned her head slightly to hear Ryoku's message, about restraining herself. Her hand that was holding her naginata had tighten even more. Stop reminding her. It was pissing her off!
Once they entered, Mizu had enough. She started to whine and become restless, her body swayed from left to right. With a deep sigh, Hozuki managed to convince Mizu to be behind Ryoku and Kazumi. Once they got to the appropriate distance from the leader, Hozuki placed her naginata at the floor and sat down, cross legged. Mizu immediately rested on Hozuki's leg and started to nuzzle her face into Hozuki's chest. The weight was enough to cause Hozuki say a small 'oof' but she bared with it. Hozuki's hand started to gently rub at the bear's fear, the dirt slowly being rubbed off. Mizu's heat was enough to keep Hozuki warm while her skin was still caked from dirt.

Raijin took a moment to look at them all in turn. She knew the old hokage by appearence. It was good they sent someone trusted. She grabbed a folder from the table next to her and walked towards them. "Greetings. My name is Raijin of the coming storm. This is my base of operations. For now." she said moving up to Ryoku and outstretched a hand in offer to him, the folder behind her back. ""I took the liberty of preparing a meal for us all. Its a decent walk from Konoha so I trust you all could use something to eat. I hope you dont mind. We can discuss things over dinner."
The girl had weary looking eyes but a striking figure. Not overly tall and her hands were rough from years of working with them. Her hair was stark white and close cropped, very neatly cut and trimmed. There were men in cook uniforms milling about the room, setting two tables in specific. Off to the side there was a single door with a large group of children lining up in a single file line under the direction of the young lady from before that was leaning against the door. They all looked to be in good health and had bright eyes, full of life.

Ryoku hesitated but then showed a more anxious side to the sound of food. He was still very catious with this. Eating is a prime vulnerable point, as hungry as they might all be or not. They had to be careful. He was going to be sure to study the source of the food and drink. To make sure it was not previously prepared and awaiting their approval to eat. So long as everyones plates and drinks were of the same pool, things should be fine. "Yes please, we are all rather hungry from the trip... and lets be honest here. that password at the door. Caused stomachs to growl just at the mention of it."
The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.
Kazumi felt her own stomach growl when Ryoku mentioned food. She fought off a blush. She was hungry, yes, but she was wary about the offered food. She bit her lip and looked around. She had been drugged before. Back when she was looking for her brother, she had gone two weeks without food; unable to find any. She had come across some people, two men, who had offered her food, and she had accepted. She had woken up with far less than she had passed out in, and had been less than pleased, and felt dirty. So now, the idea of taking food from these strangers, had her skin crawling, and her eyes narrowed. She looked back at her sister and Mizu, face neutral. She wanted to go home, she was tired of this mission, but she wouldn't voice this. She had a job to do after all.

Hozuki watched as Raijin walked towards her squad leader and her older sister and introduced herself. The younger Senju stayed behind with Mizu as Mizu was becoming a bit more anxious. Where was this so called park they mentioned? Her stomach growled and she was certain that Mizu was hungry but even then, she knew that Mizu wouldn't be able to eat with so many people and to do that in the mess hall, was a bad idea. Glanced around, Hozuki had to say something to avoid issues, "If it's not an issue, Mizu and I can eat elsewhere. I was told about makeshift park. We can take our food to go and eat there." Mizu heard the commotion outside of people lining up to get food out of the door before the mess hall as she let out a soft bellow, her pupils slowly dilating as she continued to press her body up against Hozuki, Hozuki was having a hard time standing still because of the overgrown cub.

"Its settled then. Kayla, Please bring in the children and get them situated for dinner." Raiko spoke to the girl with the kids lining up outside the mess hall. They all moved into the room in a single file line and took their seats, a cook bringing out a cart for their table and another bringing out another for the adults table.
"My men will be having dinner in their quarters tonight but the children always eat with me. Tonights dinner is venison, mashed potatos and fresh snap peas. Its not much but our cooks are good. Please be seated." Raiko said as she took her space at the head of the table. The cooks would put a meal at every space then lay out various condiments on the table. "We have much to discuss. Please. Oh and yes, you may be excused to eat elsewhere if you wish. Dont go anywhere other than that playground however. We have strict security as you are in no doubt aware. " She said gesturing at the table.

Taking his seat at the table he was a little worried at Hozuki's request, that it might be taken offensively. He really would have to do something about this girl at some point. From his observation Kazumi has done nothing but tip toe around her to avoid any type of trigger but it seemed as though Hozuki would trigger herself if no one did it for her. He thought for a moment as to how he could work on that but was distracted by the children and the food that was on its way. The children by far put him more at ease about the whole situation. As he prepared for the food that was coming the woman was completely right, they had much to discuss. He was quiet curious himself as to what would be the plan. He had one of his own but with what he saw so far from this team he was unsure if it would be the best course of action now. "Please yes, tell us how we can be of help."
The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.
Kazumi noticed how Ryoku seemed to pay attention to Hozuki, and it made her want to fuss at him. But she didn't. She wouldn't present a discontented or fragmented front when on a mission. She turned to Hozuki, and gave her a small, tentative smile. She knew Mizu would protect Hozuki, and that Hozuki would protect Mizu. She just wished that Hozuki would let her get close again, but she doubted it would happen. At least not any time soon. She sat down when directed, but not a moment before, since she didn't want to seem rude. Her stomach growled again, and she ducked her head, trying to hide a blush. When it seemed it was okay for her to speak, she looked up at their host and bowed slightly, "Thank you, for your hospitality." The thanks was genuine, since she knew; at least in part, their hardships. Kazumi knew that they couldn't have much, being in hiding with so many to house and feed. So the fact that they were sharing at all was a major sign of respect. Or at least a sign of wanting to lull them into a sense of security. False or otherwise. Kazumi, after thanking their host, turned to watch the children. Seeing them reminded her of her time as a child with her siblings, about rowdy dinners and school days. Training with their parents, playing in their yard. It made Kazumi's heart ache in remembrance, ache at the loss of all of that. It made Kazumi truly want to help these people, not because it was her mission, but because she wanted to give these people more than what she had given up on her wild goose chase for her brother.

The youngest Senju was annoyed at the leader. She didn't respond to her question. Brought in the people, she felt Mizu nipped at her calf as Hozuki winced and growled towards Mizu. Damn it! There was a ******** reason why she asked to go out before they came in, so Mizu wouldn't go crazy. Hozuki had to move her foot and placed it on the cub's paw as Mizu started to act out. Once she got permission from the leader, finally, Hozuki nudged at Mizu's shoulder and started to 'herd' her out of the door safely. Hozuki had no time to grab the food since the leader had let in the kids before they could leave. Mizu took a running start. "Ah!" With that, Hozuki gave chase. Once they were at the 'makeshift forest' Mizu had calmed down immensely and started to purr around Hozuki. With a frustrated growl, how can that leader be so ******** dumb!? Whatever. Sat down on the grass, she watched Mizu rolled on the grass, climb trees, and the what not. Constantly, the tamer glanced around at her surroundings and keeping an eye out. She was hoping that golden eyed b*****d wouldn't show up.
He's a p***k.

Raijin took her time with taking a few bites of food. For the time being she settled into her seat and took a few bites of food and a sip of wine. She pulled one of the servers over and whispered into his ear. He gave a brief nod and grabbed the plate at the empty seat, moving off in the same dirrection the young girl had moved off in. "Now then. Ill get straight to business. Have you heard of a group called the flamespyre?" She asked simply and looked at the nara pointedly. "They have been getting bolder and operating more and more inside of fire country. In fact this is sort of why we are in hiding. Our numbers have been reduced significantly and this has been sort of a safe haven for us and the children. Word around the grapevine is they are starting to target military organizations as well." She said, spearing a chunk of meat on a fork and taking a bite, savoring the taste and giving them time to respond.
Meanwhile at the playground, a man pushed a cart with a single plate on top of it. He stopped next to the young tamer and took the plate to hand to her. "Would you care for something to drink with the meal miss? Im afraid I dont have enough scraps to make much of a snack for a growing bear." He said looking over her partner with no real emotion on his face.

Giving a slight bow over the foot at the dinner table he wanted to be sure to show his gratitude for what they spared for them. This put him even more at ease. For them to spare food in the situation they are in as well as care for their own showed him they were waiting fondly for their arrival. Hearing her ask about what they knew about the flamespyre. "Well, There is no need to be overly subtle. We are here to help, learn what we can and formulate a plan to help you and you're people get out of this predicament. This group was also found to be responsible for an attack on our village. For whatever their reasons are, we cannot turn a blind eye to their activities. Its partially personal now. If it was within our ability, I would rather enjoy taking action today. But I know better. Should we fail or lack thoroughness the remnants could give you trouble upon our leave." Eating some of the food he enjoyed the level of seasoning in the dish. Finishing what was in his mouth before he continued speaking. "What of the Drowned Maidens. Where do their allegiances lie?" Ryoku was trying to draw a plan in his mind as fast as possible. He knew that he was only meant to meet and learn more but the way he was, he could not help himself but formulate a plan of attack on the fly.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep.
Kazumi hummed softly as she watched all the children dig into their food with gusto. She listened to Ryoku, keeping silent for the time being. She dug in, once the leader did so. She was starving, but she wasn't about to blindly trust people either. After the leader, Raiko, began eating, and even Ryoku himself, she dug in as well. She was careful to maintain proper manners, but she wasn't about to pass up on food now that she figured it wasn't poisoned. She listened to everything that was being said, in case her input was asked, but she highly doubted it would be. Raiko didn't seem to interested in her, at least at the moment, and Hozuki was back at the miniature forest in the center of the compound. She watched everything going around her, even as she took a bite of the venison. It was delicious, and she was grateful for it. She knew there would be a long trek back to Konohagakure.

Eyes watched the young bear climbed up the tree as she noticed someone approaching. Her hand gripped the shaft of her naginata tightly as she was prepared to defend herself. It was then, she saw a cart. ... Did they seriously pushed the stupid cart all the way out here in the frickin makeshift forest? She saw him offered the food but he had no emotions on his face and she did not like that. "N-" Before she could even finish, the hungry bear ate the entire plate. Hozuki sighed. Well. At least that can tide Mizu over till they can get better food. Hozuki was hungry but there was no way in hell was she going to eat food that was given by strangers. And now she hopes that it's not poisoned.... there will be hell to pay if Mizu gets sick. Hozuki said nothing else to that creepy unemotional male, she understood that she was only to have one plate and Mizu ate it. That was fine with her. She waited for him to leave so she can ease the grip of her naginata. Mizu, now pleased and not as hungry anymore, laid down by Hozuki and the eyelids were getting heavy.

The leader of the group finished her bite of meat and set her fork down, wiping her mouth briefly before beginning to speak anew. "The flamespyre and drownmaidens are at odds, as are we to the other two. We used to be family but...we all split up I guess you could say. Anyway, the flamespyre have been observed making deals with low level uhv officers. We were holding our own against them until they started trading equipment with them. This is why we are..." She said, trailing off as an officer of her own group strode through the door with an air of urgency. He crossed the room and leaned down to speak into Raijin's ear in a hushed voice. It was then that the entire building was plunged into darkness as a loud quaking thumb shook the entire complex.
The lights didnt stay out long, emergency runner lights warming into existence, casting the entire room into an eerie red glow. Every room in the facility did the same. Raijin stood from her spot, food forgotten and strode towards the door stopping next to the childrens table with a look of hesitation. They are here. It seems our meeting is cut short. I wouldnt have asked this before now. Can you take the children to konoha with you and protect them? They wont have anywhere else to go if we cannot hold our line. Take the children, through the door to the rear of the room and through the tunnel. Ittl put you out of the tunnel about a half mile from here into the forest." the woman said in a quite voice; hands clenched tightly into fists, knuckles white but colored red from the lighting.
Outside of the room the complex was alive with soldiers moving forward, grabbing clothing and various weapons to try and defend there home. The walls weren't breached yet at the very least. The soldiers lined up on the inside of the walls, spears pointed towards the door as they spread out in a wide half circle, the blades of the spears taking on a wicked gleam from the emergency lighting.

Ryoku was not very alarmed by what was taking place. Closing his eyes and crossing his arms with a small look of annoyance across his face. "Not even a pleasant meal can be enjoyed it seems." Unfolding his arms he stood quickly from his chair. "Kazumi, get your sister and explain the evacuation. We need to get these children out of here. I have no problems taking them to Konaha. But I must be forthcoming. I expected something like this to happen and have made preparations to have a way out. I am actually a shadow clone." At that moment the real Ryoku would emerged from beneath the shadow of his own clone making himself visible, speaking for himself now. "Your kindness and cause seems just, even though it seems you just wish to exist. We can discuss more at another time. I will be assisting in the protection of this location." Looking over to Kazumi. "Do not worry I will make sure you all make it back to Konaha safely. I promise. You will have protection upon your exit"
Ryoku turned and made his way into the base towards the entrance they were attempting to breach. Passing by the other soldiers that belonged to Raijin. "Listen up! This place will not hold, if you wish to defend your homes, please, Do as I say." He spoke firmly to assert his on the fly strategy to better increase their chances. They might not know him nor trust him but he had to try. "I will hold the front and buy you all time. Give them the feel of this place being abandoned. Let them get comfortable once they enter and when they least expect it, Strike!" Scanning the faces of those who look far from weak but at the same time extremely disturbed by the invasion of their homes. "You all know this building inside and out, so use it to your advantage!" Unholstering his Abyssal Cross in hand and prepared a jutsu. The dim shadows in the room from the emergency lights began to wiggle lightly and slightly move on their own. Ryoku waited for the breach and he stood ready slightly leaning against a cover in case any debris would crash inward upon their entry.
