Shuu watched from her vantage point. The clients had given her a warehouse number and a time, and here they were, loading the large crate. She'd been hired to intercept the crate and deliver it to another seller, who already had a buyer lined up for the merchandise. Killing all the blackmarketeers present was required so no witnesses remained. While she normally wouldn't stoop to such jobs, she needed to know more about the black market trade in Kaze no Kuni and Sunagakure. This was a good first step. By learning about these men and those who employed them she could get valuable knowledge about how things worked. She took a short step and descended, landing quietly. There were six people involved in moving the cargo. She was strong enough to heft the large crate unaided, so all she needed to worry about at first was removing the extraneous personnel.
The first one was easy, She grabbed him as he passed by and snapped his neck. Number two was slightly harder, a quick Transformation and she appeared as the man she'd killed, As they were milling about she slowly sauntered up. She offered a quick wave, and the man waved back, turning to look for intruders, not suspecting the Violate Sage in the slightest. A quick submission hold while she dragged him back into the dark had him out of the fight after another quick neck snap. The third was a bit more of a struggle; he was with the fourth. She started similarly, remaining Transformed, and approached casually.
"What are you doing? You're supposed to be patrolling the northern edge of the hhhhhuuuuurk!" Luckily a quick toss of a shuriken created a Shadow Shuriken Replication and the two were dropped quietly and without much flash. With a poof the shuriken disappeared except for the original, which she grabbed and tucked in her pouch with a grin. The last two were the toughest, but they were standing next to each other. They had seen her attack the previous two and so knew she was a threat. They looked like they were about to split up with one running while the other attacked, and if one made it to warn the others her mission was blown and she knew it so she had to act fast. She deftly sidestepped as the blade came in at her all too quickly and a quick Rasengan Barrage to their chests simultaneously and they dropped. One of them wheezed,
"You'll never....g....get..." Shuu shrugged as her transformation faded and she grinned.
"I already have,"<i></i> she smirked and moved to pick up the crate. It was heavy, causing her to grunt, but she managed. While she left residual chakra traces all over, in the end she left no hard proof that a shinobi had been involved, just some very suspicious corpses. When she arrived at the rendezvous point she grinned and set it down with a heavy thud.
Mission Accomplished. Now for just one sidestop to the Municipal Building to get the law enforcement to understand the one of a kind offer she was about to make them...

As she passed the crates off to their new owners and recieved payment, she acted like she left, but circled around and watched the buy. It hadn't taken much snooping to figure out the purchasers, and the Soon's Haven City Government had been more than happy to, for a modest fee, employ her services to track and disable this threat, while capturing a high-level operative in the terrorist cell purchasing the high explosives she'd just stolen for her employer. Through cunning and stealth she followed the crate as it moved throughout the city, eventually leading to a small house. As she examined it with her Hakumei Byakugan she saw a total of ten people within the house planning the attack. She cracked her neck with intent before descending. She landed lightly on the roof, running to a nearby window and grabbing the edge as she threw her weight over. Like a set of parallel bars her body flipped and she twisted her waist to turn. As she bashed through the window she rotated to land on her feet, facing the enemy. With a Falcon Punch followed by a Fist of Sin the ones on the top floor were taken out.
Certain the lower-level terrorists heard she heard footsteps clattering up the stairs. With quick thinking she vanished just past a doorway. With a quick axekick she busted through the floor--which was the ceiling to the remaining aggressors--and as she landed she did a spinning Whirlwind that sent two goons flying. The ones who'd just climbed the stairs moved over to the opening to see her spin and power up the Gigavolt Cannon jutsu to make Teravolt Blaster, Unleashing an arcing blast of electricity into one opponent's chest. They jumped to descend but she shifted into a Jyuuken stance and fired off a series of Air Palms which launched them back up into the ceiling to land at a clattering roll on the send floor. Having bought herself an extra moment, she had three left on the lower floor to deal with. One was making a break for it--the leader she assumed--while the remainder attacked her. With a grin she activated the Eight Trigrams Divination Seal, then combined Fist of Sin: Sloth with a Falcon Punch, called-shoting their heads. This move, named Dekopin Rocket, enabled her to do four highspeed finger flicks to the foreheads of the four subordinates left standing in the house, though the chakra focused in the finger was so intense that it blasted through defenses and knocked all four unconscious simultaneously. Turning she darted after the leader trying to escape.
When she spotted him she smirked to herself, weaving handsigns with frightening speed as she erected a Thunderdome, trapping both of them within.
"You're not going anywhere,'<i></i> she intoned in challenge, and even as the leader spun to defend himself she socked him full on in the solar plexus with a Falcon Punch. He doubled over, sucking wind, and used Submission until he passed out. Tying him up she dropped her Thunderdome and meandered back towards a nice, quiet place to ask him a few questions. But first...
"Raiton: Tenmou no Raiden!"<i></i> From the sky a huge lightning bolt soared down and struck the house, travelling through the wood to get to the crate. As it detonated, the high explosives not primed so mostly inert, it ruined them from being deadly and collapsed the house to boot. Meanwhile, Shuu had some questions to ask of their leader.
