Objective: Protect the Noboushige Dam from treacherous seperatists.
Reward: 5000 Ryo

Dark skies filled the Ame no Kuni as he jumped from tree to tree towards the large dam. The young puppeteer was excited on taking the mission as he jumped about, making his advance towards the place at hand. Even though his teammate didn't like him that much, Ichiro was impressed with her ranking more than anything else. The fact that she had been a chunnin only meant she was skilled in the ninja ways. The night sky was still and pleasant, making it a beautiful night to run through. The branches folded at the weight of Ichiro as he made his way towards the dam. From where they stood, both could see the massive dam in front of them. As of now, nothing appeared as wrong. It was calm and peaceful but that wouldn't last for long.

Ichiro stopped for a second and assessed the situation. The first part was trying to determine where the seperatists would attack from. There were many different locations in which they could attack. In order for them to counter, they needed to be right up on the dam. His feet fluttered with movement as he continued onwards and advanced towards the dam.

[.:Ryo:.]

A few meters to his left would be the young Uchiha, lifting off the ground lightly and making contact with the branch in front of her just as softly. They were both nearly silent, which was definitely a good thing on a mission like this for it made it harder for either of them to really get ambushed. The black cloak that Ayaka wore covered her entire body from the bottom of her mouth to the bottoms of her ankles. Her arms were practically invisible in the large sleeves, the crest of the Uchiha bloodline on her back. She was so proud to be part of the Uchiha clan, but she still didn't have the Sharingan active. She sighed lightly to herself. The only thing that really stuck out on Ayaka's body was the katana on her hip.

Getting closer and closer to their destination, Ayaka began to hear the sounds of running water as a small smile crept over her face. She loved the rain, the dam, the water in general. She just loved the feeling and sound of it all for some reason. She didn't know why, but she just did. She was very happy to be in Rain and not Leaf now. She stopped by her teammate and surveyed the area before moving on with him closer and closer to the dam. Where were these rebels? It didn't matter. They were all going to die.

[kujira]

Despite nights cloak falling over the current setting the moon shone bright within the sky. Its silvery light providing adequate illumination to see the Dam as you approach it. As you cut through the forest the main path to the Dam becomes visible a few metres away. Following it would bring you to the main entrance of the Dam. Suddenly, a cracking sound punctures followed by a swiftly uttered curse punctures the abject silence that had permeated your journey. Using your keen shinobi senses you can detect the sound came from more or less fifteen metres to the right of your current location.

________________________________________________________

1. Follow the path to the main entrance of the Dam
2. Investigate the source of the noise.

[Loki]

As a noise from the distance hit Ichiro's ears, He would instantly reach for his scroll. As a puppeteer, Ichiro was prone to using puppets at first glance. The noise was interesting but at the same time, would he risk giving away the location of his team. The best way to go about this was to use a puppet and investigate as he moved slowly towards the entrance to the dam. Reaching in his satchel, Ichiro would pull out a puppet known as Pantera. Gently, he would unravel it and summon the puppet.

"Grind, Pantera" Ichiro whispered, which he always did when he summoned his puppets.

Connecting the strings was easy as he made his way towards the sound with the puppet. From here, Ichiro would begin using two puppet techs that allowed him to see and hear from the puppets point of view. In addition, to the eyes and ears, Ichiro would use the puppet silence technique, making his puppet soundless as it advanced towards the site. This investigation would slowly be unraveled as he moved his body and his footing towards the dam. The puppet itself, would continue to move until it reached the area that was the origin of the sound.

[.:Ryo:.]

Quickly spinning on her heel, Ayaka would look towards where the sound had come from, but she saw nothing. She watched her teammate as he summoned his puppets and made one of them advance towards where the sound had come from. On the other hand, the young Uchiha female advanced towards the dam itself, not wanting to waste any time. Her movements would be very stealthy and quiet, making sure she wasn't taken by surprise. She looked at her teammate and nodded silently, making sure he didn't mind her leaving for a short period of time. He had his puppets anyway so she doubted he really needed her help. To be honest, Ayaka just wanted to get this over with so that she could get another mission under her belt and was that much closer to becoming Jounin.

[kujira]

[ Loki. ]

As your puppet approaches the sound of the previous noise you suddenly become aware of a shifting, rustling activity in a nearby clearing. Investigating you find a rather shortish man clothed in ebony with a single crimson kanji upon his back. This perfectly fits the the description of Hanzui you were given earlier in your mission. It appears by the way he rubs his ankle and curses under his breath he has broken or sprained it on the nearby sprawling tree roots. What do you do?

______________________________________________________

1. Capture and Interrogate.
2. Silence him quickly and move on.
3. Silence him quickly and steal his cloths ^_^

[ Ayake.]

As you make your way towards the Dam's entrance, ahead of your companion, the moonlight suddenly reveals the Dam's entrance in quite clear clarity. Five ebon garbed men stroll around the thick, solid steel entrance. While your eyes also pick up the crimson trails of blood that pour forth from the two dam worker bodies that have been strung up upon the gate. Whether they or alive or dead you cannot tell from this distance. Twenty metres to the left of the gate you spy a huge, sprawling oak that if climbed could potentially allow you to stealthily bypass the gate. What do you do?

______________________________________________________

1. Launch a surprise, frontal attack on the gate.
2. Scale the tree and attempt to gain entrance secretly.
3. Gain entry by any other means you see fit.

[Loki]

Ichiro was at a good stand point. He had a couple of options. The first idea that popped into his head was to capture and interigate the suspect. Indeed, he was alone in the woods, but how far away were the others? In addition, what was there to gain from talking to him. On the plus side, however, Ichiro could get some very valuable information from the guy and perhaps find a way to move on. The second part was to just kill him. If he did that, he would be rid of the guy but what would he lose out of the lack of conversation. His information would be important to him. The best course of action was to simply capture him, and find out what he knows.

The puppet would do all the talking since Ichiro knew some skills that would allow this to work. Gently, the puppeteer would position the puppet right behind the man who seemed to be on the ground grabbing the his right ankle. Ichiro would maintain silence via his technique as he approached the man. The puppeteer would twist his right thumb, causing his metallic blades to pop out and his arm to wrap around the mans mouth. The sharp claws gently grazed his throat as a whisper of a voice krept out of Pantera's mouth.

"Say anything, and you die." Ichiro say, thowing his voice to sound a little different than his own. "Start talking and be quiet about it, my ears a good enough to hear you whisper. Too loud and i might just slip this blade from ear to ear."

Also using the other techs from last turn...

[.:Ryo:.]

Looking at the guards before her, Ayaka did a quick set of handseals as the wind picked up and turned into sharp needles. Those needles would spread out, two of them going to hit each man in the neck to try and stop his breathing. While the needles were being thrown out to the men, Ayaka did another quick set of seals as energy grew into her finger tips. With her fingers glowing bright blue, lightning shot out of Ayaka's fingers. If these methods worked on taking out all of the men, then Ayaka would make her presence known and check the bodies. If one man was left alive then the young Uchiha female would body flicker forth [1|3] and unsheath her katana, driving it into his chest. If more than one was left alive, then she would change her position so that she could remain hidden.

[/size]

This technique may be blocked by large objects, however something small such as a sword, or a staff will allow the needles to seperate still moving towards the object it was originally sent to. Not a powerful technique as the user is capable of hurling up to ten senbon wind needles that gives out minor cuts. However this could be used as a more of a set up technique to allow the user to perform a more dangerous technique.

Limit: Lightning Release

[ Loki. ]

Your puppets alacritous nature would surprise the naive, bumbling thief. Literally exuding a palpable aura of nervous fear the mans eyes would bulge from their sockets. A thin trail of urine would wind its way down his legs as you make your threat all to clear. Moments would pass, the man still quaking in fear. Then, he would speak. His voice a barely audible whisper.

" bo...bo..boss Gokuto has taken his gang inside the Dam and either killed or ca..captured all the workers! They're setting up eplo...explosives everywhere! I was sent to guard the sec...secre....secret entrance. Its about twenty ya..yards from where we are and leads into the Dam bypassing the main gate! Please! Please don't kill me!"

______________________________________________________

1. Listen to his info and enter through the secret entrance.
2. Regroup with Ayake at the main gate.

[ Ayake. ]

Your combination of lightning and wind proves extremely effective.The Hanzui members fall beneath your onslought, the last one having been impaled through the chest by your katana. Standing amongst the bloody ruin of there corpses you can see the entryway into the interior of the Dam. Then, a sudden haunting scream echoes forth form the entryway. Perhaps they are torturing the captive Dam workers...or perhaps it is something more sinister.

______________________________________________________

1. Regroup with Loki
2. Slowly make your way into the Dam.
3. Swiftly make your way into the Dam, foregoing stealth.

[Loki]

As the man said his last words, Ichiro would twist his pinkie finger ever so slightly, running the blades across the mans throat. This would kill the man and stop him from saying anything that would give away his position. Killing the man was necessary so that he wouldn't tip of the others. The mission simply said to do what was needed to stop these guys. If killing them was a crime, then Ichiro shouldn't have gone on such a mission. Ichiro would move his body towards the puppet and sooner or later reach the dead corpse. Slowly, the puppeteer would move the body into the bushes as to not alert anyone near by. While in the bushes, Ichiro would rummage through the body looking for any items that he could possibly take off the body. Any weaponry or anything that could come in handy would indeed be great for the later battles. Afterwards, he would head for the secret entrance. Hopefully, his partner in crime would meet up with him later on in the dam or come looking for him, either one.

[.:Ryo:.]

After checking the bodies for money or weapons, Ayaka would sheath her katana and crouch down to the ground, her ears flickering from the noises of the screaming workers a mile or two down into the dam. She muttered a curse to herself and began to silently make her way towards the entrance of the dam, making sure that nothing on her body was making noise. Once at the entrance, she would peer through and see what was up. If the coast was clear, then she would make her way inside, utilizing stealth as much as possible. She would stop once she saw or heard the slightest sound of movement.

[kujira]

[ Loki. ]

As your puppets blade slices across the mans throat a crimson mist erupts into the air, signaling his treacherous end. All you can find on his body is a single, rusty knife. Apparently the terrorist group was only armed with its fanatic zeal. Although, it becomes apparent their zeal can be broken by the most base of instincts, fear. For the man had spoken the truth and soon you find the secret entrance. Entering it you make your way past a twisting, winding corridor and soon enter into a platform overlooking the Dam's main...room? ( I don't know Dams XD). A tortured scream suddenly reverberates around the room as you see five men in black garments whipping, and torturing around twenty prisoners all bound and gagged. Also, from the platforms vantage point you can see six more ebon garbed men surrounding a white garbed leader of sorts near the main entranceway to this room They work furiosly to attach exploding tags to the various pillars within the room. What do you do?

______________________________________________________

1. Free the prisoners.
2. Attack the leader and his Croney's
3. Run away.
4. Wait for Ayake.

[ Ayake. ]

After neutralizing the gate guards, who wielded nothing more than rusty farming implements, you make your way unimpeded down the main entrance way, silence greeting your sojourn downwards. Suddenly, a scream echoes forth from the next bend. Hidden within the natural shadows that emerge from the entrance way you can see a white garbed man surrounded by five henchmen, all with the simple for Hanzui upon their backs. They are apparently busy attaching explosive tags to the support pillars. Also, you can see, off in the distance, a group of five ebon garbed men mercilessly torturing prisoners.

______________________________________________________

1. Attack the leader and put an end to his terrorism.
2. Rescue the prisoners first.
3. Wait for Loki.
4. Dance to Caramelldansen...

OOC: Aight guys, one more good post each and your done. I didn't include distances in my post so just do your best XD

[Loki]

As the screams echoed in Loki's ears, he would instantly know what to do. Hopefully, Ayake would come soon and handle the leader who seemed to be planting numerous tags around the pillars. Ichiro would start this off with a simple use of three puppets. Since Pantera was already out and simply just held on, Ichiro needed to use another two puppets in order to fully attack the people around him. Staying the shadows of the secret entrance, Ichiro would pull out two scrolls with Mamut and Trepadora written on the inside of them. With both hands he would unravel both and unleash the two puppets. "Crush, Mamut and Strangle, Trepadora" Ichiro would whisper as he brought them out. The two puppets would suddenly appear and become more weapons in his arsenal. Since these two puppets had the ability to crush his opponents with the extendable limbs, Ichiro would simply have the extend it out and get all of them.

First, Ichiro would drop Pantera down to the ground and jump inside the large puppet known as Mamut. From there he would use it as a personal puppet and control the others from there. It was an easy task to do really. He had a total of 9 Extendable limbs to wrap around the five slave handlers and one other puppet to attack the leader who was placing tags. Ichiro would quickly start his attack from the shadows and send out all the extendable limbs, each one wrapping around a specific member of the enemy organization. From there, Ichiro would crush each of them with the Limb crush technique, causing them to pass out from lack of air. Meanwhile, Pantera would be used to attack the leader with his sharp blades of steel. The puppet would charge forth and simply take effect on the enemy who seemed to be almost defenseless.

[.:Ryo:.]

At about the same time as the puppets were coming towards the prisoners, Ayaka did a quick set of handseals and the leader of this wretched group of terrorists would find himself surrounded. He wasn't just surrounded by two ninja and some puppets, but hundreds and hundreds of pointed, non-existent weapons were all staring him down. The young Uchiha, though she didn't have a Sharingan to help her out, still had extensive knowledge of Genjutsu and perceptions. The objects would all pierce him at the same time, shocking and stunning him with fear so that he was immobile. Smirking, Ayaka would body flicker [2|3], unsheath her katana, and decapitate him. Too easy.

[kujira]

[ Ayake and Loki.]

It appeared your prodigious abilities made short work of any who stood in your way. Loki's talented puppetry decimate the prisoner guards and in a few short moments he had freed the rest of the Dam workers. Some wept with joy at their freedom, others looked in admiration at the proud Ame shinobi. Meanwhile, Ayake's usage of genjutsu had completely overwhelmed the leader and his group. Thus, they made easy prey and were decimated quite easily. Cheering the Dam workers would envelope and hug both of their saviors. Task accomplished you both would leave the building, where a waiting AnBU squad greets you. They're there for the clean up operation as many Hanzui members could still be lurking around. Porcelain mask adorning his features the captain of said group would hand you your money with a wordless motion before descending into the dam.

OOC: Job well done, kinda rushed but they'll be other times. I'll pay you in this thread, and Loki....head to the chunnins now!XD

[Loki]

Ichiro would nod his head as he made his way out of the area. The mission was a success and no one seemed to be hurt at all. After putting each of his puppets back into the needed scroll. Each of the puppets had done there job, completing every order that the puppeteer had given them. Ichiro would quickly find his way back to the village and report in to the kage.

[exit]

[.:Ryo:.]

Wiping blood from her katana, Ayaka proceeded behind her teammate out of the dam. She put the sword back into its holster and smiled to herself, pulling her hair down so that it was now flowing over her shoulders. She had to go to the Shop real quick, and then she would have to have a quick chat with Ichiro. And so, with a good feeling for once in a very long time, Ayaka proceeded out of the dam, out of the mission, and back towards her home, the Rain Village.
