Amidst the Chaos Still training the youth (Tsukiko)

[Toraono Kuro]

His eyes were as gray as the clouds in the sky just before a storm, smoldering and brimming with emotions untold. Twin orbs of silent haunting violet and gold that seemed to catch every movement in a casual glance locked unto the young man. His lips were full, rich and of dark chocolate smoothness. His brow is unmarred save a single epic scar atop his scalp. His nose is flared and smooth as if solid black marble could be molded into a large nose. His ears seem perfectly suited to adorn the sides of his head, neither flared out nor pinned back just there. Kuro has long luxurious hair that is silver grey in coloration but also seems to have a natural discoloration pattern made noticeable by the darker gray streaks in his hair. The patter gives his hair the appearance of tiger stripes as well when he wears his hair down. He has large smooth eyebrows. His neck is thick at 24 inches, leading to massively muscular shoulders and an explosively developed chest. His biceps are 22 inches around; from his mid back to where his neck meets his shoulders Kuro is covered with Runic Terran Tiger Stripes. His upper right shoulder bears a tribal black lion mark that serves as a Heaven Seal. To glance at him at close is to notice that both his arms are streamlined with thick girded muscle. Kuro is known by most Sunans as a master of the ancient Toraono Clan form of fighting known as ShiShi no Ken or Lion's Fist. Although Kuro is well muscled he still carries love handles which he trains daily to get rid of to no avail. Kuro has large hands, and feet allowing him to stand at 5ft 10 inches and weigh in at 270 lbs. His dual warrior/samurai lineage grants him dark skin and long luxurious hair.

Violet eyes with gold slits peered from a chocolate brow with large ebony horns growing from where a normal man’s temples would be. He wore a sand tone obi around his thirty six inch waist. The obi allowed Kuro to carry his honor blade in a specialized bone sheath. Kuro wore his battle pouch on a second sash just above his right hip. Adjacent his sacred blade Kuro wore a pair of collapsed fuuma shuriken, and last but not least Kuro wore his leg sheath on the interior of his hakama just atop his fighting gi shorts with his ANBU serum and summon scrolls. A convenient cut in the silk cloth of his left hakama pants leg allowed Kuro full access to his ANBU gear without showing exactly where it was till he motioned to grab it. Securing his anbu arm guards and leggings Kuro covered the runic terran markings of his hand and leg wraps. Kuro’s tail swished back and forth its tiger stripes faintly surging with chakra. His black gi top concealed his overly muscular upper body.

Toraono Kuro had been surveying the area to make sure all the students were safe and none took off to face more than they could handle which in a crisis like Sunagakure was going through wasn't very much. With S rank to B rank criminals of all sorts on the lose and a stranglehold upon the citizens Kuro and his clan were making slow and steady progress but all he really wanted to do was wipe them all out. What was taking his two scouts so long to survey the Obsidian Palace. In his dark demonic heart he feared he may have sent them into far more than they could handle. Still his pride and faith in his fellow nin would not allow him to chase after them so soon. There were few students about but he was still able to devote his time to training the next generation while his other aspects moved in concert. "Hello young lady, I am Sennin Toraono Kuro, how may I help you?"<i></i>

 

[Tsukiko]

A little girl she was, standing at 4 feet and 4 inches high, she aimed her dark silver eyes towards the man that vigorously stood a couple meters in front of her. She fixated on his horns, serving a creeping factor way more than it was of aid, and proceeded to notice the tiger stripes, surging with chakra and letting out an air of mystery to accompany the funny-looking tattoo.

“What a funny looking man.” – She thought as she continued to scan the stranger, top to bottom.

In opposition, she felt quite ordinary, exceedingly average in comparison to him. His arms and legs were wide, muscular, and just by looks it was apparent that a single hit from one of those, even if not meant, would be fatal on almost anyone. She compared him to that which she was used to see, as her father usually protected her from the sight of active shinobi. He trained her to be strong in mind and body in relation to herself, but not to others.

The girl was wearing what she usually did if the situation was not one of elegance, for today was the day that she acquired just the necessary things to start her career in the academy. It was the day after her birthday, she was 8 now, and she was to celebrate it by learning and becoming that which she was not. A dark gray hat, long black hair tied up in a ponytail, and her defining silver eyes decorated her oval-shaped head, giving her a gracious appearance, unscarred. She wore a black t-shit underneath a khaki sweatshirt, open and refusing heat; her bottoms were plain blue-colored shorts.

It had been hard to get to the academy without getting noticed by the rampaging criminals, or getting much unwanted attention from strangers, and she wasn’t about to let everything go to waste because of a bulky stranger standing in her way. After gathering her courage and deciding that the man was no threat, since he stated that he was a sennin, or so she hoped, she spoke.

“My name is Subaku Tsukiko! I just got accepted into the academy, I came to request a class!”- She said, looking directly at the man, now focusing on his eyes.

It had been hard to get to the academy without getting noticed by the rampaging criminals, or getting much unwanted attention from strangers, and she wasn’t about to let everything go to waste because of a bulky stranger standing in her way.

[Toraono Kuro]

With a look of concern laced with happiness Kuro took a seat crossing his legs indian style as he looked the young lady over and noted that she was both small and quite compact. She had instinctively and consciously masked her presence to find her way to the academy grounds in the midst of a terrorist siege upon the village. She wore only essential clothing and best of all she was not directly afraid of him. "First off, Tsukiko of the Subaku family, you have already done very well to make it to the academy with all the trouble going on. Second, thank you for not being overly afraid of me. Young students like yourself are normally put off by a bakemono (monster) like myself as I have demon blood so I don't look like a normal person. If you don't mind me being your teacher I can start your lessons. Is there anything imparticular you would like to strive for taijutsu, ninjutsu, genjutsu. If you have any immediate goals I will do my best to help you achieve them. If not then we can start with the basics which are kawarimi no jutsu (substitution), bunshin no jutsu (clone), henge no jutsu (transformation) after that we can use tests to discover your best aptitudes and help you achieve whatever it is you need to be confident and safe on your own as a shinobi. "<i></i>

 

[Tsukiko]

“…thank you for not being overly afraid of me. Young students like yourself are normally put off by a bakemono like myself…” It was true that the man did not wield the appearance of an ordinary human, but the world did not cycle around that trait alone. They were shinobi, and especially in this harsh environment, strength and intelligence were valued above all. The man looked strong and capable, therefor If Tsukiko could cultivate that strength and foster it in herself, then he would become a necessary asset in her strategy.

“Is there anything in particular you would like to strive for taijutsu, ninjutsu, genjutsu…” – At the moment there was nothing special to her, she was just a kid, and her father had only trained her in the most basic of things, taijutsu. Her father wields the strength of the sands in order to fight; he is ninjutsu specialist, while her mother, now deceased, used puppets. Really, there wasn’t anything in particular that she wanted to specialize into, but the choice would always haunt her, and if it came to that, she wouldn’t be able to leave out either her father’s sand ninjutsu or her mother’s puppets.

“I- I practice taijutsu with my father every once in a while… but I’m not sure if that is something I would want to specialize in…” – She smiled “My mother was a puppet expert, and i've always loved that... do you know anything about puppets? Can you teach me?!”- The idea alone of her mother's puppet jutsu excited her. She was glad the man had appeared in front of her, offering his help.

 

[Toraono Kuro]

Kuro smiled as she asked to be taught puppets, as Sunagakure was quite ahead of its time in the use of automata and their actual battle form as puppets. "Young lady I would be honored to continue your taijutsu training and as far as puppets go I can teach you the basics of puppetry, but I would have to get my family engineer/surgeon to teach you puppetry. I can have him here in an hour or so after I send out a message. If you want puppetry lessons then Doctor Daibatsu Toa is the best in my clan. He's very strict in his lessons and will probably ask you to build up your chakra and stamina as well. While we wait I can teach you some of the basic techniques you must master to graduate from the academy." Kuro placed his left hand on a colorful seal set into stone near the base of the pillar and with a brief surge of chakra a message requesting Doctor Daibatsu's presence at the academy was sent.

 

[Tsukiko]

“Who would have known, that a guy with such a rough look, could have such a smooth personality?”- Just talking to him gave Tsukiko a reassuring feeling about her future. They had just met, but his way of talking and expressing thoughts, his sweetening character worked wonders in the little girl that was just starting to know the world. Truth be told, she had no experience in using puppets, the words were blurted out of her mouth due to her deep love of the art, and the memories it conveyed. The farthest she had gotten was simply understanding how they worked and moved, and she had made some small ones herself. She was not entirely sure if Kuro was telling the truth, but she had involved herself far too much in the conversation and plain situation to retreat now, especially to the terrorized city that Sunagakure had become. He talked about introducing her to member of his clan, who seemed to be well known in the arts of puppetry, and in meantime he would continue her training in taijutsu, and teach her as much as he can about puppets and how to control them.

“Toraono Kuro and Doctor Daibatsu Toa…”- She repeated their names in her mind, making sure to carve them in her memories. Her life until now had been hard, even after her father did his best to conceal her and protect her from the dangers of the outside world. If what Kuro said ended up being truth, then her life would take a curve for the best. “Really?”- It was hard for her to believe that someone in Sand could take so much interest in an Academy Student, especially at the time, with all the recent events in the village.

“Doctor Daibatsu Toa…”- She smiled “Thanks sensei!”- She wasn’t sure if she should be calling him that already. “I can’t wait to get started! You’re like the nicest person I’ve ever met!”

 

[Toraono Kuro]

Kuro set up three training mannequins two for both sparring and puppetry and one specifically for puppetry lessons. He then gathered a couple of hand wraps for striking and kicking and some padding for her hands since she would need her fingers to stay slim and maneuverable for puppet usage. Kuro made sure to use dark chakra so Tsukiko could see his usage of chakra to form chakra strings. Kuro only knew the basics from watching Toa but he could pull the puppets about and make them move as if they were real people. He couldn't activate the traps, weapons, or use full puppet jutsu but movement was within his grasp. Content he could remember how to make a puppet move a bit Kuro moved on to defensive taijutsu lessons which was his specialty. "We will go into puppet stringing after I teach you a basic jutsu. I will teach you how to use kawarimi no jutsu. This is the technique to take an attack and replace yourself with another object so you can surprise attack from another direction. We will use one of the mannequins as your substitution object. First you perform these hand seals in this exact order Tiger → Boar → Ox → Dog → Snake. Practicing these seals allows you to place the proper amount of chakra into each movement for your body size in relation to this mannequin so that when an attack is about to hit you switch places with it so the mannequin gets hit instead of you."<i></i>

 

[Tsukiko]

Tsukiko looked attentively at the man as he showed her the principles of puppetry. His chakra was clearly visible, as it liberated a dark aura, which looked rather cold and ghastly. He proceeded to move the puppet about, making it walk from in one direction and then the other. It didn’t seem as if he had much experience in the art, for movement was all he managed to do. After practicing with the puppet, he handed Tsukiko a pair of gloves, most likely to use in order to punch the mannequins.

"We will go into puppet stringing after I teach you a basic jutsu. I will teach you how to use kawarimi no jutsu.”- he said as he moved towards one of the mannequins, pressing its arms together, in order to grab it. “This is the technique to take an attack and replace yourself with another object so you can surprise attack from another direction. We will use one of the mannequins as your substitution object.” – He placed it close to Tsukiko, a couple meters in front. Letting go of the target, he proceeded to stand next to it, placing his hands together as if he were to do a jutsu.

“First you perform these hand seals in this exact order Tiger → Boar → Ox → Dog → Snake. Practicing these seals allows you to place the proper amount of chakra into each movement for your body size in relation to this mannequin so that when an attack is about to hit you switch places with it so the mannequin gets hit instead of you."

The idea was easy to understand, but Tsukiko had never intently used chakra before, so it would prove to be a challenge for her. She did as the man said, slowly copying the hand seals Tiger → Boar → Ox → Dog → Snake, she attempted to switch her body with that of the mannequin.

At first, it was a failure, nothing happened. Her hand seals had been too slow, each taking about 2 seconds to form. Once again, she tried: Tiger → Boar → Ox → Dog → Snake. And yet again, nothing happened.

“One more try, this time I will get it right!”- she did as she stated. Tiger → Boar → Ox → Dog → Snake… Tsukiko’s body began to heat up, and in the blink of an eye, her perception of the situation changed completely. She felt as if it was a dream, as if she was watching from another direction, in a complete different perspective. She was standing in another position, with Kuro at her side, yet looking at her body where she once stood practicing the jutsu.

“Ah! I did it! I did it Kuro-sensei!”- she smiled in contentment.


((( Sorry I took so long to post :S )))

 

[Toraono Kuro]

As Kuro smiled he again pulsed two chakra strings of violet and black chakra where she could see it before using his normal kinesis which was invisible. He couldn't do more than that but luckily he didn't have to as her new teacher finally arrived. "I see so this is the young one you called me for... very interesting. Hello young lady, I am Doctor Daibatsu Toa, Grand Master Puppeteer, Master Engineer, Assistant Surgeon, and construction specialist for the Toraono Clan. I was informed that you are here for lessons in strategy and puppet soldiering. SO before we begin I have three questions. How many traps can you imagine? How much stamina do you have? Last but by far not the least will your parents mind the amount of time you will have to spend training with me? With the answers to those questions I can devise both training and an acceptable mission for you to prove your worth.”</COLOR><i></i>


As Dr. Daibatsu entered the chamber he looked for the young lady that Kuro’s message had sent him a description of and her request to learn puppetry. Daibatsu smirked as he removed his red robe and the upper portion of his jacket then allowed it to hang down to his waist.

He smiled showing off his rebuilt body, all his prosthetics, carefully and painstakingly placed inside his regrown fully living flesh although he had no heartbeat, nor did he need to breathe. His flesh was maintained by a special nutrient feed system from his endoskeletal system. It was obvious to someone graced with high perception that half his body was unnatural because of the ninja wire and chakra lines that interlaced his right side. What gave it away the most was the massive scar down his back and the way he smelled like an old man but had the look of an adult in his prime. The final giveaway was the loose grip in which he held the hilt of his ancient steel blade which only could have been made in the old country. He carried himself like a samurai, but his eyes and permanently manicured features gave away the mark of something inhuman.

<COLOR color="red">It is time to get these lessons planned and teach this young lady some puppet skills.

Body switch learned by Tsukiko

 

[Tsukiko]

Tsukiko watched as Kuro, again, attempted to create chakra strings with his black and violet chakra, so she could see. Seconds later, her new teacher arrived; he introduced himself as Doctor Daibatsu Toa, Grand Master Puppeteer, Master Engineer, Assistant Surgeon, and construction specialist of the Toraono clan. After his introduction, he proceeded to ask three questions to Tsukiko, which she responded truthfully.

1. How many traps can you imagine?
   
   “Traps? Well… I don’t have much experience with puppets yet, but my mother used to have a workshop. I constantly wandered there, and saw some of her work… I think there aren’t a set number of traps for a puppet; the answer is left to the maker’s imagination. You can include as many as you see fit, and all traps differ with each other.”
   
   
2. How much stamina do you have?
   
   “My father used to train me in taijutsu, and although we didn’t spend too much time, only a about a couple of hours every day, I feel like I could double the time and still keep going! Stamina doesn’t have a number, but I’m optimistic… and I won’t give up easily!”
   
   
3. Will your parents mind the amount of time you will have to spend training with me?
   
   She had a saddening expression as she answered this question. “I am living only with my father… and due to the state of the village, he has to spend a lot of time outside, doing what he can to help. He told me to enroll in the academy and become a fine ninja, and that’s what I plan to do. I am sure he’s ok with me staying out late, as long as I’m working hard towards becoming the best kunoichi in Sunagakure!”

As soon as she was done answering, the man took off his top, letting it hang below his waist. He was a bulky individual, just like Kuro, but in contrast to him, this one wasn’t entirely human. He was sort of like a living automaton, with puppet prosthetics replacing various limbs. Tsukiko looked at the man in awe, hoping that one day, her image alone could bring the same feeling upon allies, and fear upon her enemies.

 

[Toraono Kuro]

"First off, it is good that you are appreciative of your family and their efforts. I don't want you to end up like me with a puppet body instead of a normal one. When you face enemies like I have you cannot rely on your puppets alone. You must be able to defend yourself in other ways hence your puppet lessons will have a healthy dose of taijutsu, ninjutsu, and tactics lessons. I hope that as a result of your training you will be able to surpass ninjas, warriors, and samurai that only specialize in one method of self defense or combat techniques. I see you also miss your mother, perhaps we can find a way to bring something of your mother's into your training and use it as a starting point for your first puppet if you like." Toa had not missed the look of loss in Tsukiko's eyes as she mentioned her mother. It would only help her if she was truly attuned to her first puppet. Kuro nodded at Toa and stepped away to continue the plans to combat the Cabal. Toa would insure that she received the training she needed to reach her goals.

Daibatsu Toa pulled some scrolls from his top and unfurled two of them. After a quick handseal and a swipe of his hand a series of puppet components were arrayed on the floor before Tukiko to create a puppet. "We shall start with a puppet creation, you must decide whether it shall be an attack puppet, defense puppet. After that we shall have a lesson on transformation so that you can disguise yourself or your puppets."

 

[Tsukiko]

Daibatsu Toa, the tall man with the puppet body, and her new sensei for the day, continue to speak as the previous man backed away. Tsukiko was happy that everything was going alright; the man would begin teaching her the basics of puppets. She was to make one herself, and he laid many tools on the floor, explaining what each was. Of course, it was impossible for her to build one on the act, especially with the limited time they had; she thought she would be ok as long as her new teacher was around, so she went with it. She proceeded to grab different tools, as well as several wooden parts. The puppet she had in mind wasn’t at all that complicated, in fact, it was simple, but the trick rested on the weapons, so it didn’t matter.

"I'm going all out! Ill make an offensive puppet!"- She smiled.

She reached for a screwdriver, and a few screws, and ensued to screw wooden parts of different sizes together. About half an hour had passed, and she already had made a simple leg. It has a few compartments inside, not really hidden, since she was just starting up. The trick to hide everything would be by the cloak that she had brought; a cloak that belonged to her mother’s favorite puppet. Another thirty minutes passed till she built the second leg. In another hour’s time, she screwed them together with movable joints, and fit them into a fake hip, which she would later link with a spine, and the rest of the puppet pieces.

She continued, taking advice from her sensei, and accepting help every time he would offer to. Half the puppet was made and she kept adding compartments, linking them to wires in the inside of the main carapace, in order to open them with her own chakra. There was no point in adding traps and hidden weapons at this point, since it was dangerous and she had not nearly enough practice to do it without hurting herself or someone else.

Finally she finished. The puppet was as simple as one used for show, except for the multiple visible compartments integrated along its wooden body. Its face was slim and rather flat, looking like a mask rather than resembling a human face. Its legs were short, the arms long with big hands for holding weapons, and its build was slender and light so she could make it jump and fly at her will with chakra threads. She painted the head white, with a few black decorations here and there. Finally, it was time for the final touch. She reached for her backpack, which she had place on the floor before starting to work on her puppet, and took out a long black cloak, which she placed on top of her puppet.

She called it “Shinigami.”

[Toraono Kuro]

"Well done, very well done... She even has an appropriate name, now I shall lead you down the path to mastery. There are those that become puppets like myself and then their are those that can merge with their weapons in a manner that even master warriors cannot manage. I was once following this path in the mastery of my blade, I am far beyond that now however. I believe with the proper training you can learn the hidden way to bring life to your puppet and bond with it without becoming a living puppet like myself. You will need to be able to carry your puppet with you without people knowing it's a puppet. Let's try henge no jutsu (transformation jutsu) to make your puppet into a weapon until you need to wield its true form. Do you have a specific weapon you like? Perhaps a sword is order..." Toa demonstrated by drawing his blade but after running his hand over it and stringing chakra to it, the blade transformed into an iron puppet.

Daibatsu Toa pulled a set of books from his hakama and placed them before Tsukiko. After a quick handseal and a swipe of his hand the puppet collapsed back into the form of a blade. "You have done well with your puppet creation, Now we shall have a lesson on transformation so that you can disguise yourself or your puppets. Focus chakra into these handseals Dog → Boar → Ram and you can transform yourself and after more training you can transform your puppets as well. The books are manuals on empowering your weaponry which I wrote over my years of training."

 

[Tsukiko]

Tsukiko remained silent for a moment, thinking if she had a favorite weapon. That question had never come to mind before, and she had never held a weapon other than a kunai, which her father used for practice. She reached for the pouch attached to the back of her waist, and pulled out a kunai. Holding it in front of her, for her teacher to see, she said- “Does this work? I have never had a weapon of my own before. My father and I used this to practice, so I’ve never really wielded anything else. Is it too small?”

She pondered on the choice that in a future would apply to her, what would she choose if needed be? Would she be alright with becoming a living puppet, for the love of her art, or to protect someone? Or instead, would she reach a height of love for a singular weapon that it became a valued prize upon many? It was an impossible choice to make in her current situation, she was too far away from actually being ready to make a decision like that. For the moment, she was just a student, trying her best to learn from those better than her. Her current sensei, the third person who even cared, was a living puppet… therefor, the best choice would probably be to follow in his steps. Of course, Tsukiko did not say this out-loud, for it was a dangerous road ahead, and a heavy decision supported by a thin thread.

Doctor Daibatsu Toa proceeded to teach her how the transformation jutsu worked.

“Focus chakra into these handseals Dog → Boar → Ram and you can transform yourself and after more training you can transform your puppets as well.” – Her sensei commanded.

Dog → Boar → Ram

Nothing happened. She was too slow. Up until now, thanks to her training with Kuro-sensei, she had learned the signs: Boar and Ram. Now all she had to do was do it in junction with: Dog. She proceeded as her sensei requested, one more time. Dog → Boar → Ram: Another failure, the time frame between Dog and Boar was too long. Her fingers would become tangled if she did the three too fast. Tsukiko reached the conclusion that practicing the signs in groups would be best.

Dog → Boar , Dog → Boar , Dog → Boar , Dog → Boar , Boar → Ram , Boar → Ram , Boar → Ram , Dog → Boar → Ram: She did it unconsciously, and the only picture in her mind was that of herself. She felt the rushing of chakra inside her as her points and channels opened with the jutsu hand formation. She felt her skin tingle as it changed shape… or so he thought, for she had transformed in none other than herself. Nothing happened, but she knew she did it right.

“One more time!” – She yelled at the top of her lungs, now ready to get it right. Dog → Boar → Ram: In question of a second, she had transformed in Doctor Daibatsu Toa.

“Puppets… they are a way of life…”- She said, trying to imitate her sensei, and failing horribly. She smiled.

 

[Toraono Kuro]

Kuro stepped forth once more impressed with the speed and tenacity the young lady used to learn jutsu and with his demonic energies he sensed she might be swayed to give up her life to become that which she treasured most. ”What Master Daibatsu has placed before you are the lessons by which one may bring their weapons to life, or turn themselves into a weapon. Here is an example from one of Master Toa’s first students.”<i></i> Kuro revealed a memory crystal before holding out is right palm. Allow me to demonstrate, Kuro placed the memory crystal in his right palm and channeled his normal invisible chakra into it activating the memories which displayed like a video in mid air. A woman’s voice could be heard speaking. Tsukiko would later find out that the woman speaking was Kuro’s mother Azame.
Tsukiko found herself looking from Queen Azame’s point of view as she gave a lesson on how to awaken or impart a soul into a weapon. Queen Azame’s hands were beautifully muscled as she lifted a massive sword that was almost six feet long with the ease that Tsukiko might lift her kunai.

”This mystic blade is called Goryata, it harbors the soul of a carnasaur that was once my pet and guardian as a child. She was very overprotective, so much so that when my father went to hug me one evening she almost mauled him. During a trip to Tea country we were set upon by assassins and Goryata gave up her life for me stopping a hail of poison arrows from hitting me with her own body. Master Toa transferred her dying soul into this nomadic sword. Whenever I feel lost or alone I draw this blade and focus my mind upon the steel until I can feel her spirit reach out to mind. Once I am in contact with her my eyes look like hers and the blade transforms into a more dynamic weapon like so. Bite the enemy Goryata…” <i></i>

”This is Goryata’s first release, now behold her second release as I merge with the blade and for a brief moment Goryata and I are one. SEVER THEIR BONDS GORYATA!” <i></i>
The sword transformed into a series of daggers that resembled carnasaur fangs. Azame’s skin became metallic and her hands became shimmering runic metal as the blades merged with her metallic flesh components and she actually resembled a human carnasaur. With fangs and a spiked tail she spinned about and took down a series of training dummies before releasing her fusion and returning to normal holding a massive blade.
Kuro smiled fondly as he relived his mother’s memories and explanations he had been an eight year old ANBU when she had demonstrated the awakening of a blade. ”Toa is hoping you will be the one to awaken or soul forge a puppet. After observing your training and the speed and skill with which you learn jutsu I feel at ease with giving you a genin exam ahead of a normal training schedule so that you might be capable of joining the capture teams we have to help end the terrorist crisis.” <i></i>
Pocketing the small memory crystal Kuro nodded to Toa in agreement that she might be the one to truly be able to do it.
