Base Camp "Leviathan" | M

[Deleted]

Base Camp Ground, Exterior | Base Camp Ground, Interior

Leviathan sits at the base of one of the many unnamed mountains of Kaminari No Kuni. It is built into the ocean floor, a leftover war bunker from a paramilitary group of merfolk and humans, fighting for their right to breed. It was built as both a place to plan tactics, and a place to house those who fought under its covert banner, but has since been lost to time. Its design allows for the accommodation of both air and water breathers, as well as access ways and entry points that allow for easy shifting between the two.

Its massive white sections and corridors hide cold blue metal spreading it to nearly the size of a small city. Unfortunately, its pristine outer appearance betrays the damage it has sustained. Most of its many sections are completely useless. Flooded or irradiated. Broken and caved in. Monitored by vicious predators who call a certain room their new territory.

But there are a few rooms where the air still flows, where the filters still work. Areas where someone with gills would be able to quite easily access, if they tried.

She had found what she believed would be a suitable base, and incurred no personal cost to herself. Win win! Although hidden from any normal being, the base was unfortunately also quite well protected from anyone trying to enter or exit.

She had to push her gills to the extent of their ability to breathe beneath the sea to eventually find the single door that seemed to respond to her presence. With a flush of water a compartment opened, spitting a strange bubble around her body.

The door to the outside ocean closed and Shango floated for a second as the water was forcibly pumped out of the room. She marveled at the process as the bubble popped, and she felt the pressure return to normal. She could breathe the air again!

Her gills closed reflexively and another door opened. It entered into a single room, in near immaculate condition. It was sleek and looked quite conducive to research and study.

She felt that, even if only this one room, this would provide a suitable base of operations for Kirigakure's continued interests within the Land of Lightning. Making sure that radio signals could still enter and exit this particular room, she marked the location of the Base Camp on her map.

It would take many hours before she would venture out again, as she wandered the room, uncovering its secrets, watching holodiscs from its stored memory. This was one of the war-rooms.

It seemed fitting. She set the place up, marking it with the secret Kirigakure sigils she had been taught at the academy. As she departed, she left similar sigils along the surface of the camp's outer walls, leading a barely visible trail that would work quite exotically with the application of certain jutsu.

It was like leaving breadcrumbs. Her ANBU contacts were to be notified of her success through her interaction with a specific tribe of coastal tribesmen, who benefited from working with ninja in the form of weapons and items.

She approached her contact in the form of a large finned blue liger, what he took as a sign to let Kirigakure know it was time. Her mission, and the long travel that had brought her here, was finally complete. All she could do now was await further instructions, as sent by Kirigakure and Cadoc .
