The little crystalline eye buzzed about recording the disarray that came about. The images of this day perhaps forever etched in Nanami's memory. The medical assistants attempted to review the remains of Miss Moto, the strangest thing of note was when they cut into the corpse assuming that they would that it could feel
crunchy like cornflakes and
tough almost like dried jerky. But once they cut through the flesh, there was nothing beyond the surface. If one of them lifted the body, they would notice that her clothes has been torn from her cervical spine to her sacrum. A gaping hole could be visualized through this long slit, revealing that the entirety of her thoracic and abdominal contents were
empty.
“I was hired to watch that woman and her daughter; make sure they got out of this ordeal alive for the interest of the client. Now that she’s dead, the least I can do is figure out the how and the why. I would hate to hurt anyone, truly... that’s just not the doctor’s deal,”
"I do not care who gave you what orders, but doctors don't take over investigations and they don't start attacking people because they do not have their way. YOU are the top suspect here and you have done yourself no favors bullying your way into this investigation. Barricading everyone in here. Attacking ME. Attacking Miss Moto. I'll do what you failed to do, protect the people if you are really as innocent as you suppose." Yagami protested. He was not a great shinobi or a brilliant mind, he was just a man. A man with a job and with a creed. No amount of intimidation was going to turn him around... probably. Yagami had some skill in illusions, it was by far not what one would consider a master of such things but it was enough to help him get by all these years. Hopefully it would not fail him now.
“I’ll give you ten seconds to behave yourself, sonny boy. The doctor might play nice but it won’t be pretty when I get pissed. You’re not as scary as a sandworm or a fucking wannabe god.”
"I'm not standing down," Yagami announced, his voice resolute and his brow furrowed.
"You might be strong, I know you are... but that does not give you license to do whatever you want." Yagami was going to try and stop her, probably fail and die in the process, he knew this when he said what he did but he had to try. He had to try and protect everyone.
Ryuu pulled a small billy-club from his waistband. It was smaller than a toddler's forearm, not much in the line of intimidation but it was all he had and he felt confident enough it would seem. Sato let out a yell and attempted to back away as a fray became obvious.
"You see, tyrants... Tyrants each and every one of these shinobi!"</B><i></i> Itsuke was far from a skilled shinobi but he did know a thing or two about ninjutsu skills from his son. He was going to record this incident, tell
everyone what happened here. He looked over at the Moto heiress struggling to free herself, beads of sweat dripping down the side of her young face. He then looked over at Kimura, that smug bastard. As he did, a kunai shot through the air, in fact two. Both striking Itsuke in the head. An audible crack could be heard from not terribly far way. Kimura tsk'ed Itsuke quietly as he pulled a second pair between his fingers. Itsuke reached up to his forehead, where a pair of kunai's were lodged and felt the warm sticky blood as it rolled down the front of his face.
H-He's trying to kill me!" Itsuke stammered and accused, his finger pointed at Kimura. He pulled out the pair of kunais with a shaking hand, the tips stained in blood worsening the bleed from his minor head injury in the process.
A crash could be heard from inside the iron coffin that housed Kon. His fist broke through the metallic wall. A fag clenched between his teeth, his escape was heralded by a cloud of smoke.
Is it my turn?" Kon queried, a pleased expression on his face as he cracked his knuckles.
Vapor started to mingle with the air and wrap around Ryuu's limbs like twisting ivy about a lamp post. Ryuu attempted to pull his arm away, but the steam became
taut extending his arm as he tried to bend it. The stream in defiance of his will. Pain surged through his body as the steam scaled his flesh, blistering where the tendrils licked.
"You like to cause pain," Ryuu observed.
"Well, so don't I!" He bellowed as he raised his billyclub into the air. This was going to be an actual fight or at least resemble one briefly, Nanami in the process of manipulating her shadows when Ryuu attacked, missing her twice but the third hit her solidly in a vital area. The disorienting impact failed to leave Nanami staggering but it would be effective enough in perhaps leaving a mark to later complain about.
"If I wanted you dead, you'd be dead already," Kimura replied devoid of emotion.
"I can't deal with your drama any longer, nor can I deal with the recording your are probably making of this fiasco." Again, Itsuke looked over at Shigemi struggling to free herself, making sure that this perfectly recorded memory remained with him until he passed it on to someone worthwhile.
Shadowy appendages reached out for Saieko instead of Ryuu in silence. One curling around her leg, attempting to hold her fast. Another around her throat... her wrist... her waist. Holding her not quite still, but not ably to fully intervene as the Nanami forced her way into the investigation but oddly hit the wrong target. Yagami's genjutsu was working at the very least, but his heart was bounding in his chest.
A second pair of kunai's embedded themselves into Itsuke's face millimeters from the last pair, cracking the skull slightly. The banker fell to the floor in a heap, ending his recording suddenly. The last thing he was was the tip of a kunai between his eyes.
"Jiro!" Mrs Kimura scolded, her mouth agape as the banker fell to the floor in a puddle of his own blood.
"What is the matter with you! The matter with everyone here, accusing... acting like bullies! You're supposed to be retired!"<i></i> Jiro's wife was red in the face, obviously outraged at the incident but Jiro himself seemed unruffled and perhaps even slightly pleased with himself.
"It has been too long dear, I wish you could understand but you don't and you never will." Jiro sighed.
"Shinobis are simply better, we do what we want... what we need to. We can defend our honor... make a point with our might."<i></i> Jiro shook his head, as if reminiscent.
"Besides, I am curious to know what they learn about the late Miss Moto... she was a strange woman."<i></i>
"This is getting out of hand" Yagami announced.
"Nobody has to like how I investigate but that does not give someone with a shinobi skillset the right to take over an investigation NOR does it make it legal to assault someone to get your way." He was going to make it impossible to make a ruckus.
"I have to ask everyone to back away before someone gets hurt." He announced as he tried yet again to gain control of this situation.
Kon ran at Saieko, but Saieko is too fast. A pair of Saieko's in Kon's vision he is temporarily disoriented and attempts to grab hold of the wrong one. As the clone disappears into a vapor, the real Saieko mere feet away slides on a pair of bladed gloves and readies herself for a fight while Shigemi tries once again to pull herself free of her bindings.
Ryuu attempts to strike down Nanami once again, but she glides to the side and evades the attack easily.
"Fucking cunt!" Ryuu spat.
"Oi, language," Kimura remanded. A kunai spuin from his wrist and plunged into Ryuu's midsection. Ryuu screamed out in pain as the kunai dug into him deeper as he struggled to move and fought his misty fetters. Blood stained his white buttoned shirt.
"I'd hurry up madam unless you want someone to be mistakenly killed," Kimura warned.
Shigemi struggled against the illusionary force that halted her movements. Her mind having a greater fortitude than one would expect from a debutante, the imaginary stone started to crumble away in flakes that soon became pebbles before it came off in large chunks.
"Well, this makes it easier," Shigemi muttered lowly as her hands twisted into an unusual pose. From one, came three more making four. There was something off about the trio, but it would be hard for most people to discern. Nanami would be able to tell the difference, it was slight. Almost impossibly small this difference, the glint and the droning buzz that did not seem to belong.
Ryuu tried to attack Nanami, the blade embedded in his body twisted with his movement causing a torrent of pain to fill his midsection. Ryuu gritted his teeth and fought through the pain but he missed Nanami utterly.
"Down Boy..." Kimura announced, looking over at the long-winded investigator as he wadded his kunai's into the palm of his hand, bending the pointed steel projectile like aluminum foil between his fingers and then flung the wad at Yagami
hard. Yagami was more agile than he appear, ducking low and avoiding the attack with relative ease. The right side of Kimura's mouth dipped downward at the spectacle.
"Stop this, you are being a bully!" Mrs Kimura hissed at her husband as she moved towards the investigator.
"We need to put a stop to this nonsense, violence is never the answer."<i></i>
The investigator cooled at the gaping hole where he recently stood, perhaps there was a spark of fear or uncertainty in his eyes but he never verbalized it. He tried to invade Kimura mind as he had the others, but to no avail. Meanwhile Nanami protects herself as a wall of earth and stone breaks through the once pristine floor, now pockmarked and broken. Cracks running through the gleaming marble.
Saieko slashes Kon, her blade digs into her adversary. Perhaps for a brief moment she considered attacking Nanami, but she was able to overcome this and to focus.
Ryuu went for Nanami again, but there was a wall in his way. He smashed into the wall with his billy-club.
"Someone is going to get hurt," the investigator warned, his eyes focusing now on Mr. Kimura.
Again, Kimura crumpled a set of throwing knives in his hand, but this time he infused chakra into the attack and flung it a second time in the direction of the investigator. This projectile hit him squarely, shattering on impact. Chakra-laden bit of shrapnel littered the area around Yagami. His suit jacket scuffed and scant bleeding had started to discolor the space.
"Are you crazy!" Yagami accused, he was still on his feet. He was stronger than the average man, in fact most of these people were but it was a long-shot to call him or those guards even with a shinobi. His eyes followed the shrapnel as it dug into Kimura's own wife.
"What did you do!"
Kimura's wife let out a shrill scream and fell to the floor. She was not a durable woman and from the look on her husband's face the attack was not intentional.
<B>"Mako!" Kimura yelled as he rushed to his wife's side, cradling her head in his arm.
"Mako, I did not mean to! I'm sorry!" Meanwhile Ryuu continued to bash the side of the earthen wall, attempting to reach the mercenary on the other side.

Notes:
Nanami -- copy-pasting your actions 'tsk =P (RE Storm God)
Saieko -- also going to rec. that you consider using the special action "trigger" when you bind someone.
Too lazy to calculate previous round CP costs
