Naruto: Cursed Spirit

[SKBCTayuyaFluteofDeath]

Tayu cocked her head to the side, thinking about Nowe's plan. "I agree with Kyo that it's not the safest thing to split up, but it would be quicker. I could send Kita with one group so that he can fly back to me if something happens to that group. Then I and whichever of you three I'm with can go and help."

Kin nodded curtly, but respectfully, to the Kage. "That is correct," she said, agreeing with Kohane's statement that the Kage could calm his nerves for the time being. "We will do all in our power to ensure your safety on our journey, Kage-sama."

Kikou bowed as well "I-i-if you like Sir I c-can set up sentries. And I'm a E-earth Jutsu User I can use a jutsu t-too help" he said going back to scared Kikou act  

[SKBCTayuyaFluteofDeath]

Inwardly, Kin shook her head at Kikou's act. Outwardly, she showed no reaction. She knew that there could always be some ninja watching them that they couldn't see or sense, and if a possible enemy thought Kikou was a coward, they would go after him first and greatly underestimate his abilities.

"Well if we have to split up I guess we should link with someone that contrasts our style" kyo said looking at each of them. "Im not to good with hand to hand combat and short range so a better combo would either be me going with Zane or Nowe since alot of your attacks do pertain to distance Tayu-chan" kyo said shaking his head as he looked around at each of the other members.  

[omgIisonfiyah]

"Well then Kyo, you and Nowe go off one way while I head off with Tayu the other. Stay safe and don't eat anything you find on the ground." Zane said cheerily. Sure it was one of the worst times to crack a joke in, but hey, Zane was an optimist.

"We thank you for your hospitality and protection, but should something occur, I ask that you do not worry about the Tsuchikage, we've got it covered." Yumi said with a sly smile, she had been chosen for this mission because of her bloodline as well as her previous history of working with Leaf ninja. Though we'll be in trouble if Ayame shows up since he'll be able to quickly undo all my metal techniques. Yumi thought to herself.  

[SKBCTayuyaFluteofDeath]

Kin nodded in greeting to Yumi. "Hello again, Yumi-san. I hope that perhaps we can find some sort of balance in this. We were assigned to protect the Tsuchikage with you. That is the job of an escort, after all," she smiled, showing she felt no hostility toward them.

Tayu nodded. "All right. That works for me. Kita." The bird bobbed his head and looked at Kyo and Nowe. "Would either of you mind having a bird ride on his shoulder?" he asked. "This tunnel is too narrow and low-ceilinged for me to fly."

((Heyos peeps. ^_^ I'm back now. Gonna look for a spot/way to jump back in with Twilight's help.))

"I don't mind at all." Nowe said, smiling at the bird. He glanced over at Kyo, giving the boy a pat on the shoulder. "Relax, if there is any trouble, Zane is likely to be the one to attract it. Not the most queit ninja." he said playfully, starting to head down one tunnel.

The Kage nodded, and then looked in suprise at the sound of footsteps. A cursed doll had appeared. Long white hair, and a tired look, Kimimaro stood before them. A bone blade extended from his wrist, as he began to decide how best to take on the group.  

[SKBCTayuyaFluteofDeath]

Kita lighted on Nowe's shoulder as the sannin headed down the tunnel. Tayu watched them leave, feeling strangely light and lonely although Zane was right there. She wasn't used to not having Kita around.

Kin cursed and put a hand up to the shuriken on her back, taking one from its holster in a smooth movement as she moved in front of the Tsuchikage. "Arrow formation!" she snapped. "Kikou! Kohane! Get ready!" She narrowed her eyes at the cursed doll. Why was it those things kept taking the forms of some of the most powerful rogue ninja? It was really starting to get on her nerves.  

[Xistund]

Kikou got into position his hands on his bag of tools though looking at the ninja in absolute terror.  

[Shiningdragon21]

"Summoning" Kohane muttered biting her thumb as she made the seal just behind the group a slug appearing as it split into one for each of the group members. "Right" Kohane muttered tossing the slugs at the group members and the Kage as they slithered into hiding spots in the peoples clothing. "He's a close range fighter with a few long range attacks" Kohane whispered to Kin as she moved closer to the front of the formation slowly. "Let me go in there and pull him into a close range fight and you pick spots to hit him from a far" she offered waiting to listen to Kin. She had been put in charge so for the time the Sannin would listen.

"Uhhh right" Kyo said shaking his head. During a mission he saw no need to make jokes. Simply following behind Nowe kyo twisted his spear together quickly as he walked just behind him. From the position he was in he could quickly drop a flash bomb, jump back, and attack with shadow's if he needed to.  

[anonymous-twilight]

The cursed doll didn't wait much longer. Raising his hand, a flurry of bone bullets fired, attacking the group. Following this attack, he rushed in and began attacking with the bone that extended out from his wrist, moving in a elegant and deadly motion.

Nowe walked without hestiation, looking around with curisoity. So many rumors had circulated about Orochimaru, and the thought o learning more about the cursed seal was fantastic. After many turns and choosing between left's and rights, they came upon a room Nowe thought was a bit more interesting. It was filled with a desk and alot of old dusty books and scrolls. Moving over, he began to flip through some of them. "Looks like most of these are filled with expirement results...and other stuff I dont' understand."  

[Lucky_Tiger]

She doesn't know why but
she knows that when
She's all alone feels
Like it's all coming down

The bullets were blown off course by a sudden gust of wind as the bone attacks were countered by the steel edge of two fans. Kiri appeared before the group, parrying the doll's blows. The two looked like they were dancing as they clashed, their moves graceful and elegant. "You stupid thing. Would have destroyed you long before this if I'd known what you were planning." But she hadn't known. That had been her mission - Find the dolls and figure out what they were up to. She'd gotten a small bit of information but not nearly enough for what she wanted.

She won't make a sound
Alone in this fight with herself
And the fears whispering
If she stands, she'll fall down

 

[SKBCTayuyaFluteofDeath]

Kin was surprised by Kiri's sudden appearance, but at the same time, she was glad to see the sannin. She nodded in response to Kohane, but it looked like part of that plan had already been taken. She felt the slug slip into her hair and shivered at the feeling, but otherwise, she ignored it. Kin directed chakra to the shuriken in her hand, and the giant throwing star burst into flame. She threw it at the two combatants, giving it a split second before impact to yell, "Kirinata! Heads up!"
