The message was received, pinged and directions were given.The rush he felt within him as the names of those involved were dropped were instant. The office was where he had been sitting, signing papers and reading reports before heading off to go home. His last drops of coffee still in the cup, it had grown slightly stale but he would still normally, reluctantly bottom it before his usual walk home.
From one second he was there, reading and listening to his Youkai contract and greatest friend and ally Hitomi with her dark ANBU clothes and wild flowing orange hair giving a quick report from a message received over the radio.
The office was suddenly empty. Papers still in the air, some of the papers on the table flew up and floated slowly towards the ground and steam that was emenating from the cup of coffee vanished as well to be replaced with new steam. The chair's cushion still had his butt marks as the air in it filled again. It was like for a second he was invisible. The door leading out of the office had only creaked imperceptively like it had barely moved, but had in fact opened fully and closed again.
Hitomi stood there in the office still barely able to percieve the change of atmosphere as the last words of the report escaped her mouth. Realizing then the reason as she just regurgitated the words but didn't process it herself until a moment later. Knowing then why her master was in such a rush. The atmosphere within the office as he departed was almost like it had been left charged with an electrical current. She felt her hair absorb it and become slowly more poofy. Knowing the risks, she departed the room as well, admittedly at a slightly less rushed pace than her master, but at least she knew where he went..
On her way she kept sensing this change in atmosphere, like a lightning had crashed through the building and left eveything charged, she ran and as she did her radio was activated and she began calling for further backup from whatever other ANBU or Harvester were around to listen. Broadcasting over the channels that Corvus had gone ahead and more might be needed.

His senses were screaming at him to stop. His muscles were tensing like they hadn't for decades, his speed was imperfect, but still had the brute force to set him on his path and reach his destination faster than most. His body was Volt Charged to the extreme, his element, the element he felt most comfortable with. He knew how to heal, he knew how to be stealthy and embrace the darkness of his position. But the bolt of lightning that was jumping over the buildings leaving roof tiles and bricks floating behind him felt almost like he was back in his true elemental embrace. The people below walking with smiles, and laughter walking with lanterns in the night, not knowing the horrors that lurked beyond their horizons, barely able to perceive the flash of lightning appearing above them in the corner of their eyes, the speed demon was once a name he held, his intricate knowledge of the human and Shinobi body and his lightning able to pacify or jolt a heart to jumpstart was a skill he had honed for many years
His leaps let him scan the district closely, higher and higher he quickly recognized the turmoil and broken buildings from where the battle had ended, he tensed his leg muscles one last time and leaped further than he had ever done before.
At the final jump he leaped across where the battle was happening, and his black peerless dark orbs where the mask had his eyes underneath scanned the environment, realizing where his students and potential applicant was standing. Pulling his still charged arms back, his hands moved with lightning speed, forming jutsu seals. Above him dark clouds formed, and through it emerged a small ball of light, it's size could be barely be perceived due to the intensity of it like a flashbang across the district, as his hand grasped it he pulled it down and threw it with the intensity of Raiden, the Kumo god of lightning himself striking the demon-possessed Keiyaku. The lightning would send a bolt of intense electricity down through his whole body spasming out muscles and locking him in place.
The striking of the lightning would cause a bright flash across the area blinding anyone looking looking directly at Keiyaku's furry body, and right behind the strike Keiji, in his black ANBU robes and white hollow eyed raven beaked mask would land in direct opposition to where Keiyaku would be stunned and writhing, trying to shake off the electric buzz going through his system. As Keiji would rise his arms straightened out to his sides as his hands illuminated with sparks and jolts. Around only him and Keiyaku a net of buzzing electric lines would form in the shape of a dome wrapping them both within it leaving the two others outside to see him within. The net surrounding them giving faint light illuminating the dark clothes and white mask of the ANBU Sennin.
His mask's hollow blank eyes flared with a blue light, his Byukugan fully embraced and his muscles tightening, and hands tightening as his legs spread into the stance of his ancestral bloodline. His eyes scanned Keiyaku's body, the chakra veins within flaming, boiling within like the beast that had him under his control choked and squeezed the very life force of his body to the utmost maximum tolerance. He'd seen this before. He figured when he left Keiyaku in the hospital he would have worked through this possession in his own way, he regretted not giving this boy more guidance, he regreted not being there for him and telling him the truth. Through his fists he tried to force these feelings, with his index and middle finger he quickly poked and prodded at the child's body, every attack closing his veins, limiting his chakra, slowly hit by hit limiting the control and raw power the Demon could pull from Keiyaku's own reserves.
OOC: Apologies for the delay. The battle is joined!
