Still this was an issue within the village. These bandits managed to survive yet more time within the confines of their small space. Whatever it was Sousuke was having done wasn't particularly effective and Uri was finding it troublesome. The longer these miscreants survived in the underground the longer they had to harm innocents. Sometimes people had to learn lessons the hard way when it came to being swift in action, but at the cost of the people one is suppose to protect is just poor form. This time Uri received word of some criminals that were sent to set off firebombs within the Desert Crown. Another area filled with people who weren't meant to be in the middle of ninja-oriented combat. This time however, he was not in it alone. A pair of familiar faces were sent to aid him in his mission. The noontide twins and Uri had met on numerous occasions since he had returned and had become well-acquainted with one another.
"It is good to see you both again. I hope the new house is working out well."</COLOR><i></i>
"Greetings to you too, Uri-san. Yes, quite well. Your designs were superb."
Uri smiled at them, but not before an explosion erupted and all three turned their attention towards the fleeing people and smoke bellowing up from a street over. Immediately, Uri slammed his palms into the ground and a swarm of builds flew up from the ground, white and specked with black stones. They flew off and vanished around the corner as the three pursued. A second explosion soon followed and as he turned onto the street he saw a pair of identical twins, quite similar to the Noontide Twins standing there before a scorched crater.
<COLOR color="red">"We are the Sunset Twins, Dosk and Lite, and we will burn your whole village to the ground, so says Magnetica!"<i></i>
The chuunin stifled a smirk as he observed his newest adversaries. They were much like the Noontide twins, and in fact he was willing to bet they were known to one another in some way judging by the serious expression on his friends' faces.
"We have set up runes all across your district of lavishness and over-indulgence. Watch as it turns to ashes and leaves nothing but burnt stone husks!"<i></i> They laughed, high-pitched and grating on the ears.
"Go Uri-san and deal with the explosives. We will stim the setting sun until you return."<i></i> There was a glow about the twins that was more than gathered energy, but a brimming strength that spoke of the potential destruction looming before them. On some level this was personal. Palms of his hands glowing, he pressed them against the fine stonework of the street and soon more avian familiars erupted forth. The chuunin was surrounded by a swirling, flapping mass of birds, hundreds upon hundreds.
"Go, find their traps, and dispose of them. Break their machinations and end their fate."<i></i>
Uri spent the better part of ten minutes searching out and disabling numerous fire traps. Luckily runes were his specialty and he had learned long ago that chakra was just another extension of something greater, not putting arcane arts too far out of his grasp. During that time however, he heard numerous other explosions, and while he knew his birds were responsible, counter-acting some traps he hadn't been able to find, a good number of them were the two sets of twins duking it out. Course now set towards the exchange, Uri released another torrent of clay-formed beasts, arriving on the scene just in time to see the Noontide Twins take to their knees in exhaustion. Their counterparts however seemed to be a bit better off, but still wearing out. Taking up position and sitting down on either side of the twins was a large white bear, and black crystal panther. An encouraging thumbs up was given to the two as they caught their breath, "You two did well. I've wiped out their bombs in the area. Now allow me to finish the job, you two have done enough already."<i></i>
At the end of his sentence, as if to steal the punctuation, a group of Magnetica's enforcers arrived on the scene to bolster the Sunset Twin's strength. They totaled in six now, but since Sunagakure was closing in on these dastards, they would be that much more dangerous in their desperate state. The rest of Uri's animals charged forward and attacked their enemies, claws, teeth, and large paws inflicting pain. As each creation was smashed, it exploded. Uri himself, amidst the smoke and settling dust had slipped into the field and fought the evil twins themselves.
All the while the Noontide twins observed the fight and silently narrated it.
"An enemy has been slain..."
...Double kill
Triple kill...
....Quadra Kill"<i></i>
Then all fell silent, smoke filling the small area. A figure appeared and parted the veil and in either of his hands were the Sunset Twins.
"Pentakill, HEXAKILL! ACE!"<i></i>
Uri beamed at the two. The two diabolical twins weren't dead, just unconscious. They would be put into the Obsidian Palace for their crimes.
"Now, Uri-san, we have heard from the Steward you know of a place to get honey rolls. Show us."<i></i> The chuunin's smile widened, and he left the secured Sunset Twins atop one of his bestial creations. A good meal after combat did a ninja good.
