Selina's crying ceased while words were continually spoken to her. This time it was a voice she didn't recognize, which made her attune to it somewhat better. When she raised her head it was the beautiful, giant woman and her cheetah. The lady spoke gently as she explained why Selina had to go back to Kumogakure. She did an excellent job at elaborating that too many people needed closure, and that the sins of the area had to be fixed in some way. Finally, the beautiful feline looked at her, and with that gaze Selina knew Tsukiko was not lying. It took a lot out of her, but she sucked up her tears and nodded. She rose to her feet and collected her bow and arrow. Her bow was placed on her back as her arrow was returned to her quiver. She then began to walk away from the area. Slowly, however. Selina still did not have the strength to move as she did arriving to this location. Her peripheral vision continued to see all of the horrible pain that consumed this village. Even still, she used every ounce of willpower to put one foot in front of the next. It would take her a while to leave, but she was on her way.

__ Kenshin stood firmly as the resolute sentinel as his comrade continued to act with insubordination. He managed to escape Ada's iron sand using an afterimage and swift movements before slashing a wave of chakra at her feet. When Hachiro threatened Ada, his superior, Kenshin's own rage began to grow. The swordsman then stood in direct confrontation with Kenshin as he revealed the reasons for his ire. "So she was his sister." He thought as this seemed to answer his question as to why he reacted so fervently to that particular corpse out of the hundreds of dead. Kenshin was now so completely focused on this internal struggle that he began to forget he was standing in the midst of a grave atrocity. He had to reaffirm to himself the weight of what happened here even during this stressful moment.
Hachiro was begging him to let him pass and to let him have "justice" for his sister. This made Kenshin's blood boil as he clenched his teeth and listened to Ada's words. She appeared to be in agreement with Kenshin's strategic plan. Ada was appealing to both Hachiro's common sense as well as his emotions in an effort to stop his attempted crusade into certain oblivion. Once she finished her piece it was time for Kenshin to speak up. "There's no justice or morality outside of the law. Insubordination is illegal and being a vigilante is illegal. If you believe vengeance and justice are the same then you're not an officer of the law, you're just a thug. If you choose to stray from the path of the lawful and the righteous then you'll be punished." His words were venomous and piercing as his intensely focused white eyes glared into Hachiro's steely grey eyes.
As he continued to stand in the gentle fist position with his right palm extended outwards he continued to speak. "I will not move, if you take one more insubordinate step towards those hostiles there's nothing I won't dare. I'll not stand by and allow you to get yourself killed, give away our position, and threaten the mission's success as well as the lives of Ada, Tsukiko, and Selina." Kenshin's words were sharp and he would live up to his word. Now he needed to elaborate on his plan as well as his input on Ada's orders from his position as second in command. "We will follow where they go, we will learn their secrets, we will know the things they know. When we're finished scouting we will fall back and give our intel to the Raikage and the KPD. Kumogakure can then pursue these criminals with a much larger force and justice will be served." He quickly glanced at Ada for approval, but he was certain this idea, in particular, was uncontroversial for his squad leader. "I propose we send Hirohiko and Rosewater back to the village if Asahina wants to stay. Hirohiko's behavior is far too erratic and Rosewater is too despondent for a stealth mission and the Raikage needs this urgent message." Kosei believed this plan was the best strategy given the current variables, although forcing Hachiro back to the village would be far easier said than done. "He's too much of a liability in the field at this point." Kenshin rationalized to himself moments after making his proposal. Since Selina was starting to slowly walk away from the scene Hachiro would still have ample time to be able to escort her along with the cheetah.
Tsukiko smiled when Selina stopped crying and began to move. A shared glance with Chi convinced Selina to stand and recollect her weapons. The archer moved slowly, Chi following her every step with cautious eyes. "Your strength is to be commended," Tsukiko said softly.
She rose to her feet and turned to overhear the last of Kenshin's words. Hachiro and Selina could give the message while the rest of them continue. Tsukiko would leave Chi with Selina either way, just in case. She approached the trio, where she noticed tense body language and slight hostility from the two men. Were they fighting while she was talking to Selina? She stopped paying them any mind for just one minute...
"We have a mission," she agreed with the same soft voice she spoke to Selina with. She moved to reach a hand out to touch Hachiro's shoulder, then thought better of it. "Let's right the wrongs done to these people first and foremost. These people deserve justice. We can argue about morality, history, and revenge later. We need to investigate first." From the beginning of the mission her slight accent had disappeared, originally out of some mix of anxiety and apprehension, but now due to an overt seriousness and a hypersensitivity to the way she acted. She needed to encourage and defuse each of her teammates, not add gas to the fire.
She didn't wait for any arguments. She moved closer to the late child that seemed to get Hachiro all worked up. She didn't touch the body, for fear of setting Hachiro off again, but she stared at the wounds closely. Entry and exit wounds... there wasn't a chance for anyone to fight back. A few pieces of shrapnel rested around her. "Safe to say this was an ambush. I wonder what variety of weapons these... bandits had." She struggled to get the word out, instead wanting to spit out expletives, to brand them monsters. No. She had to be strong, for Selina and Chi, for their team effort, for the citizens of Seizan.
The group remained resolute to hold Hachiro back. Hachiro tightened his grip on his sword as he readied himself to combat those who restrained him when Ada's words cut through him deeper than any blade. 'Naive' Her words continued, appealing logically, then emotionally to Hachiro's senses. Hachiro was more than aware it was a ploy to calm him but the portion of himself that was showing restraint was entertained by the plea to him. Hachiro nodded, hanging his head low in shame, defeat and sorrow. " You're right..." His sword found its way back into its sheath in one fluid motion after Kenshin spoke. Kenshin's words were typical for him. Focused on nothing more than the mission. Hachiro's grim demeanor. " That won't be necessary, Kosei." Hachiro said in a low tone, stepping shoulder to shoulder with Kenshin and placing his hand on his shoulder. " Apologies. Thank you for keeping me in line... " His eyes flickered quickly to Emiko's corpse, Tsukiko standing near it. His body tightned as he felt the need to get everyone away from her...but he let go. He had to see the faces of those involved, had to place the mental image in his head on those who murdered a seven year old child. With one last plea, this time a cooled demeanor, Hachiro spoke. " Let me stay."
Light and soft upon the still air, came the sound of marching steps. With the city deadly quiet and all of the game in the area gone, sounds carried for miles. Though the sound of the marching grew louder and louder with each passing second. The combined efforts of nature, and Ada soon made the fog begin to lift and the sun to peek out, the jamming of Kenshin's byakugan would come to an end. However the sight he would be met with, was not one he would likely forget. The entire village, every living thing lay slaughtered. On top of that, the source of the marching could now be identified. A full battalion of UHV soldiers were making their way towards the city in parade formation. Clean lines of ranks and files all armed and ready for battle. The formation was broken into three groups of men. At the head of the column was a man who wore no helmet. His face was almost attractive with the exception of a large scar on his face. The scar was shaped similarly to a stab wound but widened at the middle and thinned out at the ends. Upon the mans chest was a pair of silver bars showing his rank as a captain. Upon the mans shoulders was a long red scarf which bore a strange white lotus flower symbol. Though if Kenshin knew the significance of that, was up for debate. Behind his formation was another formation of ten lead by a man who wore a helmet and with the exception of the single bar upon his chest looked like any of the others. The final group was exactly like the second though its leaders armor looked a fair bit heavier and bulkier then the others. At the very end of the column was two strange wheeled objects pulled by four men each. The objects had what could only be described as long fluted barrels. Time would tell if he knew just how much s**t they were about to be in....

__ As Kenshin continued to stare firmly at Hachiro who now decided to be cooperative upon a sudden he heard an ungodly sound and march pierce the eery veil of silence in Seizan. His focus shifted toward the mass of people walking towards them and could finally see who they were plain as day. The fog lifted as the men marched onwards and came into Kenshin's full view. His expression changed from that of a stern reprimand to complete shock. A pristine and enormous battalion was nearing the tragic mass grave of Seizan. He witnessed three groups of men in column formation. "The man with the scar and the silver bars on his lapel must be the one in command." His pearly eyes fixated on this man in particular as he analyzed his crimson scarf with a peculiar lotus flower symbol. "Where's that symbol from?" He tried to recall what it could be, but fell short. Kenshin then analyzed his scar intently. "I wonder what caused that? Maybe a kunai...or an arrow." Kosei found another man who also had a metal bar on his chest, but he wore a helmet. The man in the scarf was the only individual who stood out starkly from the rest of the uniform touting anonymous soldiers. At the rear of the formation, he noticed two objects with flute barrels and wheels. This was truly a sight to behold.
After a few mere moments of analysis, he spoke up to his teammates. "There's an army of soldiers marching this way with armor and weapons. I don't think they know we're here. We need to leave right now and keep quiet." Kenshin's voice was shaky and panicked, but audible enough for his squad to hear without alerting the oncoming battalion.With that, Kenshin took off in a hurried sprint. In this moment he saw a traumatized Selina practically limping away. Without hesitation, he hoisted her up and slung her over his right shoulder. Kenshin had never run so fast in his life as he fled Seizan with Selina on his shoulder, leaving the ruins of the slaughtered town behind him.
_______________ ≎Out Of Context≎ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Exit towards the Hidden Cloud Village Roads with Selina Rosewater. (With Mattysandwich's OOC consent)
I will post first in all of the traveling threads until we get to the village dojo where the raikage is.
__ Ada was left in a position where she had to continuously weigh her options. Cause and effect, action and consequence. Every choice she did or didn't make affected the risk of her squad on this mission. She appreciated Kenshin's input since his perspective mostly aligned with her own. Honestly, she was feeling it to be a better option for Hachiro to escort Selena back to Kumogakure. However, a new development quickly arose. If only they still had the option of further investigation, as Tsukiko suggested. According to Kenshin they were in the way of the unknown forces' warpath. He didn't say much in particular about them, so there mustn't have been much new news on the matter. Regardless, it seemed that retreating now was best. Or at least, that was mostly the case. Kenshin was already well on his way to catch up with Selina before Ada spoke up, "Tsukiko, go with them back to the village to make the report. Hachiro and I will remain behind to keep an eye on their movements. We won't engage the enemy and stay hidden." Ada took a moment to tap the radio's ear piece attached to the left side of her face, "Frequency four. We'll stay in touch as best we can." She would nod once to gesture an excusal for the speedy kunoichi.
Ada then turned her attention to Hachiro. "This is your chance to make up for that outburst a moment ago. Although, you're welcome to go back with the rest instead if you'd prefer." With a single hand seal she'd recall most of her iron sand to their storage seals. She hurriedly dashed toward the nearest alleyway and slipped into a battle-worn building. From here they could keep an eye on this small army's movements and easily retreat if necessary. It was highly unlikely that this force came with sensory-capable soldiers given Kenshin's report on the behavior of their movements. Ada would form a hand seal for a technique she had been researching but never really got to attempt an actual application so far. Sand and dust would gather into the form of a tiny orb floating over the building. The eyeball would take fully functional effect when Ada closed her left eye. From there it would maneuver even higher in the air to be that much harder to notice, all the while keeping track of the enemy's movements as a whole. 'There are quite a lot of them. I could use that if I really had to. Can't guarantee a result though...' Ada thought to herself, quietly strategizing and considering her options. All Hachiro had to do was stay close by and out of sight as well. He was here as backup if things somehow went wrong in ways even she couldn't predict. **MISSION - Seizan Town Disappearance Investigation [ ?-Rank | ONGOING ]

Tsukiko was frozen at the sight of the massive army. She had no words for the bone chilling horror that filled her. She must've blacked out for a few moments, because the next thing she caught on was that she was being excused to head back to the village.
She clenched her fists, begged her feet to move. When she found mobility, she didn't stop - she moved as quickly as her body was able.
As Hachiro made his plea, his partner, Kenshin would have a sharp change in demeanor. The sound of unified thunderous steps echoed down the streets. Kenshin spoke, giving a vague description of what was approaching, his voice trembling. It surprised Hachiro to hear his voice weak as it was. With his announcement and suggestion to evacuate, Hachiro watched as Kenshin bolted away, grabbing Selena and running with her over his shoulder as they vanished into the horizon.
Ada gave the order for Tsukiko to follow, requesting Hachiro stay. He scoffed. " I wasn't leaving either way. I'm going to remember what these bastards look like." with that he followed Ada into the building, staying away from the windows as to not draw attention. He knelt out of sight, awaiting a clear view before he dared to sneak a peek. While he sat in silence his anger continued to brood.
With the majority of the team leaving to report in, and the two choosing to remain behind without the aid of Kenshin's byakgan, the exact location of the UHV's battalion was now unknown. Though the sound of their marching was a general hint. While they were still a good ways off, the shinobi inside the village were going to have to pull some seriously impressive stealth to remain undetected...
__ Ada soon gained view of the large group of invaders with her Third Eye technique. "Well, Hachiro, the good news is that they're still about a mile and a half away from Seizan." She would stand up, keeping her left eye still closed and honed in on the army's movements, "Also, we have about an hour until they get here if they keep their current pace." Ada briefly nodded to him then suggested, "If we can't fight them head on, then why not take advantage of the area?" She walked over to the fire pit of the center of the small building they were taking cover in. "I'm going to set up traps in every building in this village. Since there isn't anyone else alive, I won't worry about unfortunate casualties." Her hands would quickly weave a small series of seals and she muttered, "Earth Conversion." Her hand came to rest on the ground around the the fire pit.
Just inches below the ground a thin but sturdy plate of refined silver formed beneath the house. Simultaneously, several other sheets of the highly conductive metal would form beneath every other building she could see in the village. She mostly focused on the ones that seemed even remotely habitable. However, a second use of it would also help to line the streets and some of the most defensible areas around Seizan with the silver too. "It's highly likely that they will occupy this village before they move on to their next attack. I expect that our reinforcements will arrive before then, so we should give our side as much advantage as possible." She would sigh and stand upright again after all the traps became connected by conductive lines of silver. "There. Now all we have to do is wait for them to get here. When I give the signal, we shall hit these silver traps with the strongest raiton jutsu in our arsenal. Any of their armored troops in the vicinity of them will get electrocuted while others may be trapped in these buildings as they're set on fire." Ada took a moment to dust off her hands. She had come to terms with the fact that they couldn't fight this army head on. Regardless, this effort could very well thin out the enemy's numbers and ultimately give Kumogakure the advantage in the inevitable counterattack. What was more, all of this silver was within her ability to magnetically control at her current skill level. That meant that she had a massive readily available extra source of materials to fight with aside from her stored reserves.
The final step for this preparation on her part was to find a better place to hide until it was time to strike. "Needless to say, we cannot hide here anymore. Let's go." Ada once again gestured for Hachiro to follow her, this time back outside. She would find a viable spot and prepare the Earth Conversion technique once more. A lid was in one of the ruin-wrought alleys camouflaged to hide a small underground bunker below. Several small passages were spread to carry air to the bunker from scattered locations surrounding Seizan. The iron cast created to design the space was easily converted to a dust-like form then sealed away into Ada's storage. Ada jumped down into the hole first and would control the hatch to close after Hachiro joined her.
For now, there wasn't much else to do but to wait. Ada would find a corner in the small room for the two Kumo shinobi. There she would seat herself and rest against the wall. **RESTING - Regained 15 + 1/20th of total chakra/stamina supply = +34 Chakra // +0 Stamina Recovered
Ada could still see the enemy army's movements with her active Third Eye technique. They were still a ways away from actually arriving in Seizan. This little breather was the perfect opportunity to regain combat readiness. **RESTING - Regained 15 + 1/20th of total chakra/stamina supply = +34 Chakra // +0 Stamina Recovered
Honestly, despite how much the odds were against them, Ada still wasn't entirely worried about the enemy forces. It wasn't an excess of faith in her own abilities. Rather, it might've been her trust in those sent back to the village to get help. Whether her trap paid off or not, Kumogakure's victory was practically assured. **RESTING - Regained 15 + 1/20th of total chakra/stamina supply = +34 Chakra // +0 Stamina Recovered
Ada continued to sit in the shared darkness, quietly. Right now she just wanted to relax for as long as it were possible. The army was almost at the edge of the village now. That meant that her surveillance was all the more important. **RESTING - Regained 15 + 1/20th of total chakra/stamina supply = +34 Chakra // +0 Stamina Recovered
She sighed lightly, breaking the temporary silence at that moment. Faintly, the underground bunker did quake as the army's distant marching neared. "They'll be in the village in the next twenty minutes" Ada warned Hachiro whether he paid mind to that or not. **RESTING - Regained 15 + 1/20th of total chakra/stamina supply = +34 Chakra // +0 Stamina Recovered
Then it dawned on her and she'd apologize to him, "I'm sorry, Hirohiko-san. I know you wanted to see the faces of the enemy." That wouldn't be possible right now. They had to stay as clear of the enemy as possible and this was their best bet. **RESTING - Regained 15 + 1/20th of total chakra/stamina supply = +34 Chakra // +0 Stamina Recovered
Ada would finish her resting period by saying, "I promise you'll have a chance to get your revenge when the opportunity arises. For now, please just be patient and bear with me." This was made to sound less like an order and more like a sympathetic appeal. While not as personal as Hachiro's reasons, Ada did also want to see these people pay for the monstrosities caused on the surface above them. **RESTING - Regained 15 + 1/20th of total chakra/stamina supply = +34 Chakra // +0 Stamina Recovered

Hachiro followed quickly behind Ada as they cleared the streets from view of the army, preparing to assess their situation. When Ada informed him that the army was still almost two clicks out from their location a hiss like noise escaped his mouth. He grumbled but nodded as Ada laid out her plan to lay traps. Watching her work was rather interesting. Hachiro had never seen someone so skillfully manipulate the earth.
As the manipulation of Ada's technique was complete, she lead them to an underground bunker hatch as the two would bury themselves in its chamber. Hachiro sat in silence, brooding as usual. Finally his silence was broken by Ada's apology. " I'm sure we'll get a chance at them all soon. The reinforcement's will come soon enough, then we'll rain hell down on them." He returned to his stoic, brooding expression until something dawned on him. He only knew the bare basics of lightning techniques. He wasn't going to be much help....unless she showed him how it worked before hand. " So...what lightning technique are you using to subdue the foe?" His casual phrasing of it made it seem as though nothing was wrong, although he was deeply disturbed by his lack of prowess in that field.
__ Ada had more or less decided on her plan of attack already, but took a moment to reconsider her options when asked what jutsu she'd use for the prepared trap. After a couple seconds she just nodded to affirm her choice and performed a snake hand seal. "The Manipulated Lightning Technique will probably be best this time." Her hands began to spark as the raiton chakra was properly molded. "Focusing chakra through my hands to my fingertips to create potent electrical threads from each. The technique allows me to freely control them. They're hot enough to burn through wood and have a strong enough current to immobilize foes I catch with them." She pulled her hands apart, revealing concentrated sparks of energy at the tips of each of her ten fingers. Those sparks would extend outward to bend, twist, and whip with controlled motions in her closest vicinity before retracting to their previous state again. "The immobilizing effect is what I'm relying on most for it, to be honest." Her eyes briefly remained fixed on her raiton chakra that was now set on standby. She continued to keep her other closed eye attentive to the invading forces' movement, noting that they would very soon be in Seizan to occupy the ruined village. It was all going according to plan... so far. **MISSION - Seizan Town Disappearance Investigation [ ?-Rank | ONGOING ]

Hachiro watched with interest. He took note of the snake hand seal that the woman formed, recognizing it as a common hand seal for lightning ninjutsu, so it was an obvious seal. She called this technique the Manipulated Lightning Technique, something Hachiro had never seen before. He listened to her explination, lightning up when she mentioned immobilizing a foe. [2/5] "Ah I see!" Hachiro said in his moment of clairity. He formed the hand seal of the snake as well, holding it as the static string technique manifested. The static string technique, a much more mild variation of this one was something Hachiro did know. " So it's like this....more or less." He said, examining his version in comparison to hers. [3/5] " I do see the difference though, it takes more chakra... that and you're able to use it with all ten fingers instead of the five the base technique allows." He held his five pronged variation up to display before dispelling the technique. "It really doesn't seem that much different..." he stated as he played the instructions out through his head. [4/5] Forming the Snake hand sign, he focused his chakra once more. As he held the sign, electricity began to dance around his hands as he discovered the correct chakra distribution for the technique. With the understanding came execution. Hachiro's hands seperated as all ten of his appendages yielded an electrical current that entangled around him. After displaying his ability to utilize it, he too would return the technique to its base state of electrical sparks dancing about his fingertips. [5/5][ Manipulated Lightning Learned ]
Hachiro felt accomplished. In a hushed tone he would speak. " How far are they from the trap?"
__ Ada watched as Hachiro practiced and quickly mastered the technique. He wasn't wrong that it seemed like such a simple technique, but that in itself was an advantage against foes who also couldn't tell the difference. Her charged chakra would fade for the time being, so that she could go back to resting while they waited to begin their ambush. Ada would report when asked about the enemy's movements, "Looks like they're still not quite to the village itself yet." She'd sigh anxiously. It was still quite nerve-wracking to think so many enemy's had infiltrated this deeply into the Land of Lightning without any notice. 'What is the Daimyo doing, letting all of this happen to his people?' The thought deeply troubled her, but her sense of duty quickly shook her doubts by reminding her of her primary reason for becoming a shinobi in the first place.
To distract herself, Ada turned her attention to Hachiro once more, "Hirohiko-san..." She paused while trying to figure out how to put her thoughts into spoken words, "I... I just wanted to take a moment to let you know that I honestly do sympathize for your loss. To say that it is unfortunate would be a pitiful understatement." She bowed her head slightly as a gesture of reverence. "Emiko. That w- is your sister's name, yes?" Ada mindfully corrected herself before referring to the lost sibling in past tense so soon. She'd only heard the name briefly while Hachiro was begging Kosei to stand down and let him act as he saw fit back then. It was unfortunate that the child had to remain out there still while this was going on. **MISSION - Seizan Town Disappearance Investigation [ ?-Rank | ONGOING ]
