Wedding Invitation [M|DE|P]

[Ranzu]

Zeki, while the conversation between Michiko and the old man was going on, was busy glaring at the woman who was the bride, the old man, and pretty much everyone else that was in the room besides Michiko and her clones. When the subtle signal came from the chuunin to keep on guard, Zeki shifted the sands in and around the cave area towards himself.

"I say we just take the bride and go. We literally walked into the perfect ambush location for us, and are probably surrounded on all sides. I mean, does either group name not invoke the image of a warrior band out for blood." He comments dryly before giving a bark of laughter. "But considering the two of us, blood might be hard to come by eh?"

Still, he continues to glance around the room with the usual glare. He did not like being under ground at all, and the cave was starting to get to him.

(As requested, I am taking over this thread until further notice, , have fun)

The two talking amongst themselves, the ones who had just entered this area. Yes those two whom have within their reach their goal, hesitation... The women with here piercing eyes turned to see these two as if she new, the old man giving a slight grin. Something was unfolding... Some sort of plan had been hatched.

The old man said "It is revolution, what group does it matter... Are not both the enemy of the state?" Some sound, but he said this slowly. Thankfully the two "invited guests" had their eyes looking over this crowd. Zeki was apparently blind as a bat, but Michiko seen something off about this group, especially the women of interest...

There was a number of them that had a kunai, something familiar to shinobi. It was something that was given to Anbu upon certification into the organization, but these people were obviously not Anbu. As everyone conversed Michiko noticed that the women to be wed had pulled her's out from underneath the hem of her dress. As the group was chanting about the downfall of the Tsuchikage's rein over the village the old man raised a hand, "REVOLUTION!!!!" as if to restate what he had said, but to the crowed and then that's when hell broke loose...

Blood indeed flew, everyone in the crowed had their arms raised, and the ones with the Anbu Kunais were started to slit the necks of the people next to them... Something had started...

During the old mans short speech Michko’s body shifts to aim towards the bride a little better, as her calm but examining gaze takes in everything around. The people around began unsheathing weapons however and this changed Michiko’s behavior in an instant. Seeing this as an aggressive move, michiko and her clones responded accordingly. The next move was made in an almost choreographed manner. With fluid grace Michiko shifted her feet to a braced stance and began to squat down as the kunai were being unsheathed. From her perspective the world almost seemed to slow as she lifted her cloak in a manner to indicated she was attempting to remove it. She never had to finish the motion though as a clone standing directly behind her yanked the cloak up and back now exposing Michiko’s solid steel upper torso. Also exposing the exploding tags she wore on her arms and back. Michiko’s body completed its slight drop to a squat as she then vanished in less than a blink of an eye. Utilizing a shunshin maneuver she shot straight towards the bride. During her forward momentum she “shed” some of the steel from her arms, in particular two rectangular plates containing an exploding tag. The exploding tag in the center of her back remained in place though. Both plates dropped in the crowd somewhere between her previous position and her now current position in front of the bride. The bride barely had time to remove her kunai before michiko was in her face grabbing her and leaping off in a violent dash to attempt escape with her target. Michiko’s extreme resilience would protect her from simple kunai attacks , so even if the bride didn’t want to be taken and tried to fight back she would be met with resistance. The clone who pulled the cloak off Michiko’s back quickly and haphazardly rolled the cloak up into a ball and leaped towards the exit to follow. The remaining clones positioned themselves to stand where the original michiko lauched off from. The clone closest to zeki leaned in and whispered “kill them all” Before turning to face the old man. The clones carrying the heavy box lifted it above their heads and lobbed it as a heavy projectile towards the old man as the crowd was violently shedding blood. As michiko was in the air from her leap towards the exit, she held tightly onto the bride with one arm and with the free arm completed the handseal to activate exploding tags. She gave a brief moment of concentration on the two tags she’d released prior and activated them hoping they would take out enough of the crowd to provide a nice chaotic cover. She was far enough away from zeki during the movement to not catch him at point blank range, and the clones she left standing between him and the blast , she knew would absorb enough damage to prevent excess from hitting him she just wasn’t sure how much residual damage would be sent his way. Thankfully she knew he was also resilient and so whatever left over blast that wasn’t fully taken by the series of clones wouldn’t be too much for him to handle. This did however mean the rest of her clones might be destroyed, but thankfully that’s what clones are for. SPOILER: Click to show (So in short. Michiko shunshins to bride snatching her up , leaving “presents” behind , leaps away. Clones stand between blast and zeki and tell zeki to do what zeki does best, mass destruction. You will also need to tell me if my clones got destroyed and if not all of them how many of the 4 are remaining. ) Active Jutsu ======================================================================================= Koutetsu Jomei (Steel Expulsion) -[10TP] Rank: "D" Rank Skill: Ninjutsu Effect: Allows the user to release pieces of steel from their flesh, turning it into a projectile weapon.

The speed is of the user is reduced by one Difficulty Class from their current Difficulty Class for every Rank of the technique that the user has active.

This training allows the user to act as if they were unaffected by the steel transitions within the body, allowing them to fight normally. Each Rank of this technique reduces the Difficulty Class Movement Penalty imposed by the Steel Body technique by one Difficulty Class, meaning that if the user only has the "D" Rank of this technique but switches to "B" Rank Steel Body, then they will have their movements reduced to the point that they would move as if they were two Difficulty Classes lower than they were, instead of three. If they have the "C" Rank Steel Body, then they will suffer only a singular class deduction with the "B" Rank Steel Body, and the "B" Rank of this technique would allow for no Difficulty Class Movement Penalty for the "B" Rank Steel Body. Limit: Must have the corresponding rank of Koutetsu no Karada. ======================================================================================= Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu (Water Clone) Rank: "C" Rank Skill: NinJutsu Effect: --- Special: "Handseals" Drawback: --- Description: Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique that utilizes water to create a Bunshin clone. Unlike a normal Bunshin, the Mizu Bunshin has the ability to interact more with the environment due to it having physical substance. This allows the clone to carry out limited attacks on its target.

The maximum amount of clones is Ten for the Difficulty Class of D Rank. For each Difficulty Rank Increase the number increases by five of maximum but learning is still one per learned. Limit: Water Release =======================================================================================

[Ranzu]

Zeki was momentarily caught off-guard when the female group turned to stare at them with piercing eyes, though on the outside he just stared back at them with eyes that did not look quite real. He even gave them a little-too-wide grin and waved, paying more attention to the reactions he was receiving from the women than paying attention to the old man or what he said. Which caused him to miss the subtle signal that the old man sent to the group though he caught on that something was wrong when the word revolution was shouted and the weapons suddenly flashed. More so when the shinobi who was suppose to keep watch over him on this mission sprang into action.

A impressed stare followed Michko as she detached her cape and flew into the middle of the crowd. But even as Michko was extracting the target from the group, the Sadojin was not simply twiddling his thumps metaphorically though he was physically in some of the hand seals he was forming. Once the handseals were completed, a wave of fluid rock came from the ground and moved onto the Sadojin before hardening back into its solid state, while behind Zeki a few nearby strands of sand moved into the ground and began to grind itself deeper into the earth to make a small pit of sand. But wait, the best surprise was when a clone turned to him and said the words that he had been wanting to hear since the start of this mission! And his mind went from defense to murder in a single heartbeat.

But this heartbeat was enough for tags to erupt in a ball of fire, though he was out of the dangerous blast radius. Thankfully his earth armor and the wall of clones allowed Zeki to return his attention to his orders as his hands continued from before but this time he slammed his right hand on the ground when he finished the chain. "And now the fun part of the revolution begins!" he shouts as spikes spring up from the ground right in front of Zeki. At first they were small, a inch or two at most, but as they sprang up farther and farther away from the Sadojin they grew and grew till they were several feet tall and a couple feet wide all in a few seconds. The spikes, which were spreading out as they traveled, were aimed for the group of females were. Perhaps none had survived the explosion but the Sadojin was making sure.

SPOILER: Click to show

Doton: Rikujou Kasui Reizu (Earth: Ground Spike Raising)
Rank: "B" Rank "C" 20 Points at all time.
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: A Technique that works within an area effect. Depending on how well the user may know the Doton Soushi no Jutsu (Rock Creation Technique) is what depends on the distance Spikes to raise up along the very ground in order to stab the opponent greatly.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: The user must tough the very ground in order for the Spears to shoot up along the earth to stab against the very opponents in question. The Spikes that come forth in rapid succession and does not come forth at the same time. Spikes pop up from the very ground as they are launched around in an area effect, or in a cone, to line like effect, and since this occurs the technique begins near the user as they go forth towards the opponent. This is the "B" Rank version of the very technique while the added always 20 Points "C" Rank that is added along with it is considered the more adaptable version where spikes may come forth by how the user may wish. When the user is capable of reaching "A" Class the knowledge of placing their hands onto the very ground becomes obsolete, and the user is capable of performing the technique without having their hands along the ground.
Description: The user quickly presses on a few seals as the user slams their hands against the ground. By focusing their chakra along the ground and using the earth release giant like shards of spikes shoot up from the very ground. The Spikes that come forth are brought up in different sizes from five feet, to even seven feet high. If the opponent is struck down along with the spikes, they are capable of piercing through and puncturing within. The spikes come up in a sequential order when first learned moving from the user heading towards the intended target if possible. The way this technique works is that when the user learns the more adaptable version of this technique then the user is capable of pushing off different styles of spikes in a more of a diverse manner that are in a non-sequential form.
Limit: Needs the Earth Release, Needs to know the Doton Soushi no Jutsu (Rock Creation Technique)

Doton no Yoroi (Shield of Earth)
Rank: "C"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: A Thin like layer of earth is used to surround the user as a protection against on coming like attacks. The stronger the user is the stronger the technique becomes means the stronger the defense is to help the user.
Special: ---
Drawback: This Technique is ineffective against Lighting Techniques. The user becomes weighed down and is unable to perform fast movements such as the After Image technique.
Description: A thing layer of earth is used as a protection around the user. The layer makes the user seem a little darker then usual but this type of technique takes up a lot of concentration, chakra and understanding. When attacked by certain attacks such as TaiJutsu attacks the feel of the attack seems less then that of normal. This technique is capable of protecting the user against two "D" Rank like attacks before the shield begins to break. For every Difficulty class the user increases the technique increases in strength allowing the user to withstand more. When the user becomes a C Rank difficulty class the user can withstand Two “C” Ranks of Jutsus before they start to break within the user. When the user becomes a new difficulty of "B" then the user is capable of withstanding One "B" Ranks of Jutsus before they start to break within the user. When the user becomes a new difficulty class of "A" Rank the user is capable of withstanding One "A" Rank of Jutsus before they start to break within the user. When the user becomes "S" Difficulty class the user is capable of withstanding Two "A" Ranks of Jutsus before they start to break within the user
Limit: Needs the Earth Release

Doujou Kirikae no Jutsu (Soil Conversion Technique)
Rank: "C", "B", "A", "S"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: When the user does not have sand for them to use in a vast amount for Jutsus the user is capable of taking what sand that they do have to convert materials around them to create more sand. Depending on the type of rank the user is capable of learning this the user is capable of converting different types of material. The higher the rank is the stronger the material the user can convert. When first learned the user is capable of using components from the ground of soft soil to transform into sand. The user is capable of converting two meters of Sand per post when they learn the C Rank version of this technique. When the user learns the B Rank version of this technique the user is capable of transforming small rocks into sand and is capable of creating sand within three meters per round. When the user learns the A Rank version of this technique the user is capable of transforming hard rock into sand and is capable of converting within four meters per round. The S Rank version allows the user to convert sand from concrete and even weak metals into sand as well as the capability of converting sand within five meters.
Special: ---
Drawback: The largest drawback is that it takes time to be capable of doing such a thing as well as it takes an abundance amount of chakra in order to perform this technique. This technique should be used only if the user needs to use as a last chance for a large move. Also the user must know certain ranks of Sand Control in order to go into this tree.
Description: ---
Limit: Must have the Sand Release. To Learn C Rank user must know C Rank Sand Control. In order to learn B Rank the usr must know B Rank Sand Control. In order to learn A Rank the user must know A Rank Sand Control. In order to learn S Rank the user must know S Rank Sand Control.

Blood and guts, the walls splashed red. The women and men not a care in the world for the hostilities. They were far to preocupied with their own deaths to muster any kind of defense. There was something foul a foot and our heroes had not caught on. "LOOK HOW THEY MURDER US!!!" a death cry erupted.

The bride to be still had her kunai even if she was hauled away. Perhaps if Michko had subdued the women in some way then perhaps she wouldn't have cut her own wrists. She was not experienced in suicide and perhaps her throat would have been a better option so her bleeding was slow. But she started to drag her own kunai upon her face even from within the clutches of the shinobi women. "LET THE PEOPLE SEE WHAT THESE SHINOBI DO TO THE HELPLESS!!!"

Thus we come to the old man and a secret passage that had bloomed from out of no where. A false book case, how cliche but the echoes of his foot falls can be heard. A shrill laughter could be heard, a laughter that soon turned into a deep rumbling as if the sound itself transfigured into something else. A rumbling word in a language of misplaced origin "KAKUSH AL BWALDO. OSK AUG ORINTOTA UM GREKA!!! SHIMB UDA IWAGAKURE PSOKURAY EEKO ODE TSUCHIKAGES UMPAKATAKU UNDA HOMUKADO..." said the voice from the passage. If one of our heroes knew Draconian then perhaps they could decipher what was said. The translation might go along the lines of this, "They are fools. They have taken the bait!!! Now let the Iwagakure citizens see the Tsuchikages treachery to its people."

So what shall become of this, what are the choices of these Shinobi. Did they have enough clues to figure out the scandal. Or are they too blinded by Mission, Duty, and Greed.

Still in mid-air from her leap the target she was carrying decided to take the kunai in her hand and slash her wrists, she was partially into her first wrist when Michiko shifted her arms slightly and snatched the womans other wrist in her hand. With near bone crushing grip michiko forced the womans hand open causing her to drop the kunai. Though she still had to deal with the womans other wrist at least she couldn’t finish the job. Landing with a thud Michiko released the womans wrist and doubled up her fist popping her with a stunning blow to the forehead. She was careful to use enough force to knock her out, but not enough to crack her skull open. She would awaken later with a splitting headache but no long term damage. The old man yelled out some gibberish in a language she could only guess was the same language on that plank of wood she was carrying around. Unfortunately she didn’t speak the language and had no idea what the man was saying, she could only guess it was some stream of obscenities because of what had happened. Dropping the woman to the ground michiko squatted down and took ahold of the woman top. Tearing it off like an old bandaid on a healed wound she took the fabric and proceeded to shred pieces of it and rapidly wrap the womans bleeding wrist. The wound she gashed wasn’t enough to let her bleed out rapidly thankfully and Michiko almost laughed at her lack of skill with the knife. The makeshift bandage was pretty pitiful but it was wrapped tight enough to stop bleeding, any further healing would have to be done back at the village. She proceeded to use the rest of the shredded top to bind the woman tightly so she could not escape. Due to the speed of the binding the wraps would in no way convey comfort, though they would hold just fine.  Zeki appeared to be having fun slaughtering the masses , and Michiko was ticked off enough to allow him to finish his work. A small stream of insects poured out of various spots of Michiko’s body funneling towards a single spot in front of her forming an orb of swarming chakra eating insects. With a wave of her hand she sent the swarm forwards towards her exit, their instructions were to drain the chakra of anything between her and that door that was NOT herself, anyone she’s carrying, or zeki. Everything else was free game. Should any of the people here be your basic common folk , the drain on chakra would tax them so badly it would knock them out rapidly allowing a quick path of unconscious bodies to be left so Michiko and Zeki could exit without any real problems. That is assuming Zeki ever finished decimating anything left behind. Picking up the unconscious , and now completely topless, target girl once more. She then proceeds to form a handseal then reach to the womans most private of areas poking her with her fingertip and leaves a single tracking insect to remain hidden should someone be stupid enough to try and snatch the target away from her in transit. Michiko had the woman in her left arm with her right arm free, though technically she could still reach around and form handseals if need be they might be awkward and so she would prefer not to have to do so while carrying a live target. Moving towards the exit Michiko flings a handful of insects towards a couple random points in the crowd , some with orders to attack the crowd (minus zeki), some with orders to simply move around through the crowd distracting enemies. Any insects from any group that can return once they exit the cave will return. Should Michiko be uninterrupted on her path back to the cave entrance she will stop before exiting making sure to leave zeki well within visual range while she awaits him to complete his fun and return to her. Should she be interrupted on her way , or engaged after reaching her destination she will handle the situation accordingly.

Zeki lifted his hand off the ground as he watched the mass of spikes carefully. If anything had survived the explosion, then his spikes should have got them and if they somehow survived the spikes then they were not in any condition to put up much of a fight. Still, a ninja did not survive on the field for long by making assumptions though he soon realized that looking for survivors was out of his hands as a few bugs flew past him, turning his head to look at the source. "You know, I think the bugs may be over kill. Of course there is nothing wrong with over kill in my book." he says casually as he gets out of his kneeling position for a more comfortable standing one.

He moves over to where Michiko was and examined the captive with interested eyes. "You know, it is a pity. Her being mauled by the crowd and all. We had to react in a split second to save her and even then she sustained these injuries. In our over zealous protection of the target, we may have went overboard. But we both saw what happened, and that crazy, old man that ran will probably make up a false story and all." Zeki gives a small speech, gesturing at the spikes that stood where the crowd once was as his created sand rose as a single mass out of the ground. "I do have a jutsu that could make our captive more secure than simple cloth. And while we are on the topic, I can also surround her with my sand and carry her that way. Much more comfortable and secure than just over the shoulder, you know?" Zeki gestures to the bride as he says this, his sand forming into a floating oval.

"Of course," Zeki whispers, leaning towards Michiko," I have a way to...remove bodies. So we could get rid of them so we don't have to report back to your Kage that we murdered a bunch of villagers. Unless you think that would be ok for mission parameters." He leans back away from Michiko and takes up a watch position, keeping a look-out while she decided what to do next.

[Draven]

Michiko had a choice, continue on out or speak with her partner Zeki. In any event the portal to the secret tunnel had slammed shut. A very large locking mechanism could be heard as if telling others that this was not going to be opened easily. Perhaps an option to our heroes was now closed, perhaps not... Whatever the case may be, Michiko could ignore his comrade and continue out or stay and converse with his comrade...Though there was a quiet rabbling outside this structure, one which was getting louder...

With a wave of her hand the swarming insects return to her, reincorporating rapidly. " I dont consider anything I do overkill. I do what needs to be done to guarantee success. And this wasnt murder, this was self defense. They attacked, and I am not under orders to minimize casualties at any cost, thus I went for the most effective method of obtaining our target with the minimal amount of effort." She states with a pleasant tone. " If you're wanting to carry the target you can, but my recommendation would be to conserve your chakra. We dont know what kind of resistance we will meet on the way out and back. That does however lead me to a question. Do you think we should investigate any of this any further, or return back with our target? Either is fine with me but we are on some what of a time limit." Keeping a grip on the target Michiko awaits Zeki's reply, but keeps a keen eye on her surroundings. Should zeki decide to conserve his chakra michiko will carry the girl. Should he decide otherwise Michiko will place the girl on the cloud of sand gently so to not cause it any disturbance. Should zeki decide they are going to leave Michiko will stay close to the target (if she's on the cloud, otherwise will carry) the entire time. Should zeki decide to investigate she will still remain close to the target but will aim towards the now slammed door so they can head that direction.

If they "A" Class and they lose a limb, an organ, or any other body part, once per day the user's severed body members (fingers, toes, hands, feet, arms, legs, tails, broken bones, and ruined organs grow back.

Effect: Determines the durability of the user's Steel Body. Special: "Hand Seals", supplementary in Weapon Form. Drawback: The more durable the body is, the less speed that the user has. The speed is of the user is reduced by one Difficulty Class from their current Difficulty Class for every Rank of the technique that the user has active. If at any point the user's Difficulty Class for movements reduces below "D" Rank, they will be considered to have zero movements per turn, unless they are performing the required handseals to obtain a lower Durability. Description: The Koutestu no Karada, or the Steel Body, is the understanding of just how powerful the user's steel has become. The Steel of the body is capable of resisting up to one strike of the same Rank as it before becoming injured. This technique, while not in weapon form, can be modified around, due to the fact that the lower the ranking, the faster that the user is capable of moving with less training.

Description: This specialized form of training is given to those individuals within the Seitetsu Clan. Upon becoming an individual with the Steel Body technique, the user's own speeds will dramatically suffer. This training allows the user to act as if they were unaffected by the steel transitions within the body, allowing them to fight normally. Each Rank of this technique reduces the Difficulty Class Movement Penalty imposed by the Steel Body technique by one Difficulty Class, meaning that if the user only has the "D" Rank of this technique but switches to "B" Rank Steel Body, then they will have their movements reduced to the point that they would move as if they were two Difficulty Classes lower than they were, instead of three. If they have the "C" Rank Steel Body, then they will suffer only a singular class deduction with the "B" Rank Steel Body, and the "B" Rank of this technique would allow for no Difficulty Class Movement Penalty for the "B" Rank Steel Body.

The kikaichu will land and remain motionless while emitting a scent that the male kikaichu can smell as well as allowing the user to understand the location through the chakra. Special: Tiger handseal to cover the bug in chakra; then launching the bug at the opponent without their knowledge. Drawback: If the opponent discovers the bug, they can remove it, giving off a false information to the person using it as a tracking device. Description: The user performs the Tiger handseal to cover the female kikaichu in chakra. The bug then flies off towards the opponent, moving stealthily to avoid detection. It is very small and difficult to see. Once it has landed on the opponent, the user can use both the chakra and the scent that it excretes to the males of its kind to allow the user to always be able to track the opponent.

"Don't worry, this does not drain much chakra from me. It is almost like...second nature to me." Zeki replies with a small smirk, before growing serious once the bride was placed on the cloud of sand. The body slowly sunk beneath the sand until all that remained was the bride's face. "We have the target and she is injuried. We need to report back and give her medical help as soon as possible. Besides, like you said, we were told bring the bride back as soon as possible. The kage can sort out our findings later. Wait...I do have this." The Sadojin says before digging through his side pouch and pulling out a small red pill before slipping it into the bride's mouth then tilting her head back a little so she would swallow it. "Blood clot pill. This should keep her stable until we can get her real medical attention. But we should leave as soon as possible."

The situation didn't change much except the "Rabble rabble rabble" from outside grew just a bit louder. Continue as you please...

" Ok. Lets go then." She states gesturing towards the exit as the two head out to retun their target. Keeping an eye out for an ambush or other possible dangers Michiko leaks small amounts of insects from her body that remain within a few feet of her in small swarms in preperation to protect her by eating anyone who approaches who is not zeki, their target or herself.

[Ranzu]

Zeki follows behind, the sand prison floating gently between the two of them. He keeps a lookout also though his attention is focused more on the pile sand in case something tries to attack it. "Today was a good day." he comments in a happy tone as they leave.

[Draven]

(Note, not sure if your in a house in the village or some cave somewhere so bear with me)

Exiting the structure of this place was a success, there was no trouble as you made your way. But exit from the thread was interrupted by that rabble from outside.

There had been a large group gathered here. It was an uncountable amount unless one where to have the coin pile counting skill and was a wiz at counting groups. The scope of people could fill a massive church. Indeed there was formal wear worn from most and in fact the ones taking the lead were in tuxedos. This was the wedding party and the their family and friends...

With makeshift weapons, pitch forks, hell one even had a candle holder, they all looked rather perplexed. The one with a torch took a step forward and asked, "Were they all slaughtered?..." a look of concern plastered all over his face. He appeared to be the groom.

As the question was asked the two could notice off in the distance, either just inside the start of an ally way, or was it a simple hidden path, but there was an Anbu standing there motioning to Michiko and Zeki. The "shh" sign was being given as the Anbu wished none of the attention of the crowed. The Anbu was clearly of the Owl division, having the standard black cloak with the hood drawn up and the Owl mask...

[[Calibretto]]

---

On her way out Michiko grabs her cloak from the ground, her clone must have been caught up in the explosion before it could have returned it to her. Whipping the cloak back over her she re-adjusts it and lifts the hood back over her head. Adjusting the cloak her featuers are now masked completely by her outfit. Pulling the cloak shut she keeps all of her steel features now hidden. Hearing the noise from outside she figures its more people and figures this would cut back on the attention. The insects continue to maintain a few clusters of swarms but seem to follow the two shinobi as they exit. The large mass of people stopped the two ninja as they exit. The groom looking man asks if they were all slaughtered and the concern for his bride very apparent. " Not all of them. The old man who took what i can only presume is your bride is still alive and locked deep inside. If you're party is going to go after him be careful, he's an extremely silver tongued devil and may have half of your group turned against you before you can kill him. If you however simply want your bride back , and want to not take any revenge for what he did to you, then you can rest assured after receiving medical attention she will be returned to you. However if you delay us much longer there is no guarantee she'll survive. And I am required to return her quickly. Do what you will but stay out of our way please. And thank you. " With that being said she gives no chance for the man to rebut and gestures to Zeki for them to be on their way. Michiko plans to ignore the anbu and not acknowledge their existance for now and should zeki choose to follow she will simply leave with him and the bride in tow. Michiko does however leave space for zeki to say something should he have anything to add to the conversation. If any of the crowd attempt to attack them the small swarms behind Michiko will attack instantly and begin draining what chakra they have, if the crowd does not attack they will remain safe from the insects as they will not react unless there is hostile movement taken towards them. If someone from the crowd attempts to approach them directly head on Michiko will force the insects to hold position untill she determines them to be a threat but anyone michiko doesnt notice making offensive movements towards them is not afforded the same protection.

[Ranzu]

Once Zeki exits the cave, he notes the large crowd gathering before them. He wills the cloud to tilt a little, turning the face of the bride away from the crowd so as not to spook them.

He just stands there in the back, listening to the speech that Michiko was giving while keeping a eye on the crowd. Once the gesture to leave was given, he wills the cloud forward and follows behind but does not turn to speak to the crowd when given the chance. Though he does whisper to Michiko, "I don't think either of us can really get to that anbu without the crowd watching us or upsetting them by using a sight obscuring justsu."

[Draven]

The leader of the crowd frowned, "Alright..." He said as if to signify beleif. As Michiko and Zeki exited the crowd rushed into the structure... The Anbu Owl followed the two shinobi from the shadows.

Exit attempts Successful. I consider your posts exits. You can make your way to the Tower if you wish.
