Forced Entry I’m Back!

[Yamashiro Ryuni]

Ryuni found himself staring. With the level of fighters and officials in the village he had to be on the bottom of the totem pole. His golden eyes locking on Akira, and then looking amongst the others there. He wouldnt have no choice but to sit and wait. Speaking and saying something obviously stupid... Oh well, but he would stand at the ready position. He wasnt going to back down about any of it. He was simply backing his... sensei? Teacher? Mentor? Who knew what they were... It would be weird to ask out loud though right?

"This is some bull... Because, eh... nevermind." Ryuni shook his head, muttering under his breath. His eyes still looking in the direction of Michino and the woman. There were always choices that could be made. Why not if she was known to the village, come in peacefully? Then again, the politics of it all was something this genin knew anything about. Basic histrionics aside, he knew nothing with the hierarchy... but one day, he would. He would be the Kazekage one day... and to watch one he would look up to. Shin. A man that glowed with a special ability... the gift of gab. He had an aura. Literally and figuratively. Something Ryuni had seen personally... meeting him in a time of need.

Ryuni would watch the Kazekage closely. His actions. His mannerisms. He may never fill those shoes one day but he would attempt to be a part homage to those before him. . . So Ryuni would just stare, awaiting what would come... he wasnt going to change what he was going to do, not until Yuuto, Shin, or Kyuji (who was in the stands) told him otherwise.

[OOC: I'm still here... ready and willing... Let me know if I need to resend actions or we can rp no jutsu]

 

[Toraono Michino]

This was why Michino stepped down from Kazekage. He was an ambivalent guy most of the time, but had a special place in his heart when it came to grudges; and he worried leading the village down a path of destruction due to them. Akira, was one such of these grudges, for all the crap he went through after the last time they had clashed. In all seriousness, though, Michino had actually wished for her to just leave. Watching the woman turn with an almost sad look on their face had filled him with some relief…but his mouth. Damn his pride, and damn the creature he had become. He never would have resorted to such lowly insults before, and somewhere he could feel his god laughing at him.

He had pushed too far, again, but didn’t back down when she roared up again. He had called this out, it was on him to at least follow up to his stupid threat; before, at least, Shin stepped between them. Golden blade poised he was trying to give Akira another chance at leaving. The tension was thick enough to snap the air with a single drop of sweat, and the 13th held his breath for a moment as he waited to see how it would all shake out.

His eyes drifted again to the unknown and the youth, doubly sorry for dragging them back into this fray. The unknown one announced, almost casually, that Akira was not in a good spot despite the foolish barking from the Toraono. He swore himself to protecting Suna and keeping everyone here alive. It was a bold claim considering who they faced, and Michino guessed he didn’t know the capabilities the person before them held. The last time he had faced her, he fought fruitlessly against an entire desert…

That said, he already felt things had been pushed too far. Akira walking away, now, might be just too much for her pride to handle; at least that was if Michino was guessing their personality right. The only thing he knew for certain was she was insane, and mental illness was already a problem Sunagakure dealt with from their own; let alone a powerful stranger. Wind gathered to his hands as his knees gently buckled, waiting for the spring.

There was no way they would walk away…right?

[Masaru Yuuto]

Yuuto stood there watching with a flat expression as every attack he made failed to connect, almost as if some poor design in the world was protecting her through a malicious will that made his strikes irrelevant. Every blow he threw simply phased through her as if she weren't even there, and even Tenno tried a few heavy swings of his own only for them to meet the same fate. The monkey just shrugged and looked back at Yuuto with a confused grunt, to which Yuuto shrugged back because it was clearly a pointless effort, yet they kept trying anyway just to see if a single hit would actually register.

1... 2... 3...

Nothing happened, and there wasn't a single dent to show for their efforts. Yuuto watched with a detached curiosity as he stood there testing her while everyone else scrambled off to buff themselves and prepare for the real fight. In truth, nothing had actually happened yet, and the only real progress was the fact that he was finally seeing her game plan. He watched the way her form flickered and noted the timing and the rhythm of the defense she was hiding behind, treating it like an interesting puzzle where he was watching a piece that refused to fit into the board.

4... 5... 6...

He didn't say a word or give Tenno any new orders, focusing instead because the time for petty tricks and testing the waters was over. He had seen enough to finally understand how to counteract what she was doing, so he watched the air around her while his three eyes tracked the minute shifts in her chakra as the technique began to strain. The way her image distorted was subtle, but to his gaze, it was like a flickering candle that was just about to burn out.

7... 8... 9...

His focus narrowed until the rest of the battlefield became a blur while he locked onto his target, knowing he wouldn't be throwing out any more useless strikes just for the sake of it. He had spent the last few moments measuring the distance and the interval of her immunity, realizing that from this point on he would actually have to get to work without any more playing around or wasted energy.

"10 seconds until that trick is gone, huh?"

[Chikamatsu Shin]

The smoke swallowed him whole.

Not a retreat. A recalibration.

Shin moved through the grey curtain with the unhurried patience of a man who had already accepted that this would not be easy. The golden blade was clinched in his hand, settling against him like something remembered rather than summoned. He felt the weapon's presence fold into his own, gifts threading quietly into his bones:. The world sharpened at its edges.

He had reached for Akira's mind the moment the smoke rose.

Yet he found nothing.

Not resistance. Not a wall. Just... absence. A silhouette where a person should be, her chakra signature bending light around itself like heat off desert stone. His telepathy had found the shape of her and slipped through it—which was not a failure he was accustomed to. He filed it away without expression.

And then the scent came.

It did not belong to the sand or the smoke or the iron tang of chakra discharge. It rolled in beneath all of it—sweet, full, almost unbearably gentle. Lilac. Wisteria. Something older than either, the kind of bloom that only opens in the dark. It clung to the inside of the lungs like a memory you hadn't chosen to keep. Any soul standing at that gate would feel it before they understood it, a sweetness pressed gently against the mind, there and undeniable, carrying with it the faint, instinctive awareness that something patient had just opened its eyes.

Yuuto's voice drifted across the chaos somewhere to his right, dry and unbothered.

"10 seconds until that trick is gone, huh?"

Shin said nothing aloud. But his awareness had already found the puppet-master through the haze, tracing the divine signature of his chakra like a thread pulled taut between them. A thought moved instead of a voice.

'Yuuto, if you prove yourself an ally in this fight and during this war...'

The fractures along his collar pulsed once—gold against grey, steady as a second heartbeat—and Shin was already moving, the scent of flowers deepening with every step he did not make a sound taking.

'...you may find protection within these walls.'
