The Gathering! [Event!]

[Defiant]

Rin, Dex and this... leaf ninja came up to him. The center of attention was where he liked to be, most of the time, but their attention wasn't on him for the reason he would hope: his good looks. Dex was quick to accept the help form the Leaf Ninja, and also to fill in Rin. Dex had a good handle on things, and his idea to go to with the Kage seemed sound. "Glad you could make it." Reddo said to Rin, before his smokey green hues caught someone, on of the ninja in the main group, was leaving. Had they gotten orders? Maybe they were just the cool loner type. Reddo rolled his eyes, he wasn't about to leave without getting some confirmation on where he was going and what he would meet when he got their.

"No." Reddo replied to Dex's question in a take charge voice that sounded almost alien to him. "We're going to ask the guy who's organizing this operation where he needs us and not just assume anything." Reddo sat down on Lasaribo's back, much to her disapproval. This was a new side to Reddo that even he didn't really know he had. Or maybe it was just his cautious streak coming out. Either way, he was right. "He only said we needed teams, not that we were to pick where we go."

Tsuna suddenly hated himself for loving Toffee Apples. His high hopes in acquiring some had brought here him, now here he was caught up within a grand battle against the KNP.

"Stupid fucking toffee apples... No thanks Ama, I would have preferred a sword but it seems they are all gone... I actually have one at home. Damn I should have brought it but yeah sure I'll follow you to the CCC. Strength is numbers afterall"

Tsuna sighed deeply and stretched his muscles, it was going to be a long day.

"Hey, I am going with you to the Clinic or Hospital, whatever you call it but it is up to me to listen to your orders. Call me Duchess. What is your name?" Gosei would tilt his head to face the feminine voice. It was the pretty redhead he had seen before. When she said Duchess the pieces would fall together, noone who was interested in Hi no Kuni politics would not know the Duchess of Mo. However, was she down talking to him or just playing games? No matter the case, Gosei could play this game too, perfectly. "Really, miss Duchess? All help is off course appreciated. You can call me Master." The last part of his line was spoken out with so much hints at humour in his voice that she could not possible evade the thought of him joking. But unless she was going to stick to protocols she would be stuck with calling him 'Master'.

In the distance he could see a man touching the forehead of one of the survivors. Yet the purpose of this movement would be unknown to the Godaime. [PM will be sent to Okami] Quickly after that this man would start to rally some troops for an assault in the centre. He would quickly gather some people around him. Whoever that guy was, he was apparently knowing what he was doing. No matter what, Gosei would certainly want to get into contact with this persononce this entire situation would be over.

"Hokage-sama, I am Kazetora Uchiha, if I may speak for my clan in this instance, we do not agree with Ashi’s actions nor the KMPs, and I will do my best to stop her from killing any innocent civilians. I have a feeling you’ll be going for her sir, I’d like to join you in your goal to take her down and stop her before she does anymore damage to our village." This time the one who would break his chain of thoughts would be a young Uchiha. Though the man was carrying far to many swords he was offering his help. His greed was no matter at this point as all help would be necessary. Yet Gosei was sure that fate would one day catch up with this boy. "Very well, Kazetora-san,you can join me, don't worry, her evil shall be purged from the earth, whether it is by my or your hand. And you, you are welcome too." Gosei would speak to the Uchiha and his follower. "We shall free the Crisis Control Clinic so that we may strengthen our cause against her. Though I have to ask you, I never stated whom I was, nor was it ever made public: What makes you think that I am the Hokage?" The Godaime would surely await the answer the last question, the answer to that could prove to be vital in his understanding of this boy.

A small girl yelled over the crowd looking for the people who were going to the crisis control clinic. She had quite the rack, so without any hesitation Gosei thrusted his hand into the air and yelled "Over here!"

Around them everyone seemed to be forming into teams. Strangely with the huge number of people gathered here there could not be a team for every tower, but alas, this would do. "Alright everyone, we will soon split up. The simultaneousness of our assaults should prevent the KMP from sending reinforcements. I will try to force a breakthrough in the Crisis control clinic the other teams are supposed to carve themselves a way through the western, Central and Eastern positions of the KMP, towards the Hokage tower. Once there we will either have won, or we will be able to think up a strategy to defeat whatever remains of our opponents. Good luck to you all, and let the Will of Fire be victorious today!" With that he would turn around, beckoning his team and his pet with his hand to follow him to their next destination.

Good luck in your own thread everyone, try to spread out as evenly as possible. Next post will be in 48 hours, in your specific threads. Have fun ^^

Kazetora nodded to the request of Draven, he didn’t want to risk the two young lives in one body, but he couldn’t stop him, he was a capable ninja, or so Kazetora hoped. When the Hokage asked him how he knew he was the Hokage Kazetora spoke in reply “Hokage-sama, I could just tell from the way you held yourself and the way you addressed the Ninja before, it was just throwing off the vibes of a Hokage, and I followed my gut feeling, I figured I had a ten percent chance of getting it wrong and looking like a complete fool.” Before he finished his sentence the Hokage was off.

Kazetora quickly paced after him and his spider after he had signaled for his makeshift team. Kazetora was worried that he might not make it through this or that he might lose his teammate Draven, he also felt a bit silly with the additional three swords, but they could come in handy, in case his trusty Katana broke, he had replacements. Kazetora hoped no one thought less of him for looting the swords, he could use them and he could use the money that the shops offered for these kinds of swords.

Hokege. A new hokage. Reddo wondered what had happened to the old hokage, but he guessed it wasn't important, at least not now. She was prettier than this one though, but that was a given.

"Well then." He said to his team after the Hokage gave his orders, "We're headed to central." That wasn't a suggestion, but it wasn't exactly an order. When he said we he meant he and lasaribo. He didn't wait for a responce from them, if they went with him, then they went with him, if they didn't... well he'd be in quite a bit of trouble, but he could probably handle himself with Lasa. And Ace, because he knew Ace would go with him; if not because he wanted to, because his honor wouldn't let a kid go into battle by himself.

Lasa followed him closely, she looked up at him curiously. He was trembling.

[Ancestor Febrie]

The people were all forming teams and so this shinobi in command turned his attention towards her. It was apparent his knew who she is now, his reactions told her so. "Really, miss Duchess? All help is off course appreciated. You can call me Master." he said with a humorous voice. A master huh, who was he anyway to be called master, even the Hokage wasn't worthy to be called master by her. She laughed loudly "Hm you have good humor my friend but unless you tell me your name I am going to call you Hey." she made it sounds casual.

A shinobi approached them, he called the man leading the counterattack a Hokage, she wasn't informed there was a new Hokage and last time she checked Hokage was Ishi a woman not some man. Was this shinobi, Uchiha nuts? Next the "Hokage" explained to him that it was never announced and so how did he know he was the man. The reply of quite a poor one "...I figured I had a ten percent chance of getting it wrong and looking like a complete fool." yes, he still looked like one.

Come to think about it this was the guy her guards were joking around, apparently they had an incident at the gates. At that time this Uchiha looked quite hostile, she shall be wary about this one. Once hostile, always hostile, he could be the enemy's spy. The way he knew this was the Hokage and had a bad explanation how he knew and he was from the same clan as the Chief KMP. The Hokage would continue by explaining what to do to each group and then left with his spider.

It was time she left with him too however there were three more places they had to invade, she pulled out three kunai with the marks on and offered them to each group. "Please one of you should take this kunai for your protection and fast communication between teams. We will use it to get to you instantly if it is waved hardly" she explained and began to hand the kunai out. Since the ANBU and his monkey weren't going to the hospital with them she definitely wanted him to have the kunai.

Once each team gets one kunai she would leave to the Hospital. There was something she wanted to do with that Uchiha guy.

OOC: 1 kunai goes to Okami and 2 kunai go to other teams. Whoever posts first getting the kunai gets it.

[exit]

[Draven]

Draven stood silent as teams were being decided. He knew he would stick with his teammate as best he could and he wanted to show that he and his sister will have what it takes to help. As their departing words were spoke he stuck close to Kazetora as the left the area. He knew they were heading to the crisis control clinic and he will follow.

[Exit]

[Okami]

Seeing that things had calmed down, he quelled the flow of chakra to his eyes and let them revert to their natural state. Hirihi, the one medic he knew, responded to his call. The Jounin smiled slightly, remembering when he played soccer in his childhood; the team that picked the goalie first always won. With her she brought a tall Li whose slim frame seemed ill-suited for close combat. Another fine addition. The four of them together would make a well rounded group.

Taking a short bow, Jin brought a hand to his head and tipped his mask forward slightly, as if it were a hat. When he did, it was apparent that the mask was thicker than it appeared, in place perhaps only to cover advanced electronic goggles. "Hyuuga Jin." he said simply, lips curled in a friendly smile during the instant his face was visible. Standing up straight, he turned to face his female companion directly. "I'm glad it was you, Hirihi." he said sincerely.

He waited for their response, but some of the chatter he picked up from the groups around him was unsettling. The boy in charge, calling himself Master to his new teammate Duchess, was named Hokage. By an Uchiha, no less. It was odd, to be sure, but it brought up an important question. This was a coup. The Hokage Tower was taken. Where was Ishi? No, there was no time for that. Sure that his clone was running through the same train of thought, he forced the issue out of mind. Duchess was approaching.

Please one of you should take this kunai for your protection and fast communication between teams. We will use it to get to you instantly if it is waved hardly

Jin accepted the kunai with a small word of "thanks," but examined it carefully as she walked away. It was marked with some sort of seal, but he had never seen anything like it. She could reach them instantly? Whatever it did, the Jounin was sure to study it in greater detail later.

Battle plans set, Jin wondered how he let himself get caught up in this war when he knew so little. Oh well. If the Military Police were going to kill him on sight, then his allegiance was already determined. He could at least manage some haphazard organization with his team. "This is Okami, and he will be joining us." he gestured to his white-cloaked partner who was still following. "Some people are oblivious, so we'll be heading East. Synch your comm devices." Not expecting a reply, he stepped out of his roots and strode out of the courtyard.

Perspective of Shadow Clone

As Jin set about dealing with the people around him, his clone formed that single unique handseal that had spawned it, and duplicated itself. The cost was half of its life force, but there was far too much to do alone. Hearing that the ultimate goal of the operation was the Hokage Tower, and worried about Ishi, the clones decided that reconnaissance was more important than aiding their creator directly. For the moment, at least. Making a set of handseals, they imitated Jin's rooting technique and began to draw energy from the Earth. The fastest way to the tower was via instant transmission, and for that they wanted energy. As one clone kept up a tight watch, the other completed the handseals to transport his consciousness directly to the tower.

[Exit Jin and Okami. Astral Projection to Hokage Tower.]

SPOILER: Click to show

Mokuton: Nedzuyoi No Jutsu (Firmly Rooted Technique)
Rank: A
Skill: Supplementary Ninjutsu
Effect: The user grows roots out of his or her feet and they firmly root the person down.
Special: Handseals “Tiger” “Snake” “Ram”
Drawback: The user cannot move from the spot they are rooted in.
Description: The user does the handseals and sends chakra to their feet. Roots spring from user’s feet and grow deeply into the ground. The roots take nutrients from the ground and restore the user’s chakra. This jutsu can only really be used out of battle to restore chakra. In battle this technique can put the user in a deep disadvantage.
Limit: Mokuton Jutsu

Astral Projection 星の投射
Rank: A
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: See Description
Special: Must hold the rat handseal
Drawback: Body is left completely defenseless, and vulnerable to attack. User body may be difficult to move for a post. Can only project to a place where you've already been.
Description: This technique is one of the few techniques in the ninja world that neither hurt nor heal, but it is considered one of the most influential. This technique has a long history of pride. Invented in the cloud village many years ago as a communications device meant to assist their valued shinobi during the great ninja war, it has been used throughout the ages as an information tool. The users of the technique must first perform a flurry of handsigns, finishing with the rat handseal and holding it. Once the handseal is held the users body becomes totally stiff and immobile. If they are standing they may fall and injure themselves. In exchange for the total loss of their body, the user gains the control of his spirit. The spirit has no physical form, meaning it cannot attack or be attacked. Genjutsu still may effect it (only if it something meant to confuse sight) but other then that is basically just a vapor. After the spirit form is taken, the user may appear anywhere they have already been, though unable to change the environment physically, they may use chakra to act as a voice box, giving them the ability to speak. Because of the nature of the technique, it does not have a limited range, but there is a time frame. The spirit form may only be away from the body for a maximum (getting the stiff penalty) of 20 posts. After this time, the spirit is forced back into the body. Anyone can hear the spirit, and easily see the spirit cause it looks multicolored. The user may still detect the presence of nearby people (within 10 meters) of the body. They wont know who it is, just that someone is there.
Limit: None

Hearing someone call "over here!" to answer her question, Amarante shuddered when she realized who said it. 'Great I just had to get teamed with the freaky spider guy didn't I' she mulled over internally as she moved over to him. The man then proceeded to to give orders and direct the teams that were formed before heading out, his 'pet' coming along also.

'I swear to good if that thing looks at me... I'm going to scream...' she nervously mused as she followed behind her team, Tsuna hopefully in toe. She'd only just met the man and they were already going into battle together. It just goes to show that they were going to best of friends one day, either that or they'd die.

Not wanting to fall behind Tsuna hurried after Amarante almost tripping over his own feet, all whilst still silently cursing whomever invented those cursed toffee apples and the KNP.

[Dealer's Button]

After his suggestion was heard Reddo opposed it respectfully. The boy did have a point because the hokage knew more about the village then the 3 snow nins. Simply giving Reddo a nod when the answer was they was suppose to go to central. The boy was confident but that was soon dismissed when his light blue eyes saw the boy trembling. Was his companion afraid the gambler asked himself silently. "venture forth fellow accomplices our instructions have been foretold" Ace would say to the leaf nin and the other fellow snow nin before heading where Reddo was going. This is when he heard a red head offer kunais to each group. Walking over to the girl the blond would give her a respectful bow. "such an pleasant offering i accept fair lady" Ace would say before getting handed a special kunai that had marking upon it. Afterward he would start to head to his destined location.

Although the snow genin was confident his mind still worried. That still did not make him ignore his obligation to help his companion Reddo. Also the fact about letting a kid go unprotected was unexscusable towards his morals. Through hell and heaven they will fight to the end he promised himself that for sure.

Lee would see each group depart before making his own exit. They weren't spaced out as strategically as he'd hoped, but he didnt have that kind of authority to tell them otherwise.

We will use it to get to you instantly if it is waved hardly

That was the only bit of conversation that Lee picked up on. He attuned his ears to the woman that said it, and walking over to her took one of these kunai "Thank you, I may soon be needing one of these"

With that Lee tucked the kunai into one of his pockets. Then, he loaded the new crossbow with one of the clips he just acquired and lastly went through a series of handsigns that allowed him to become invisible as he headed to the Western post.

Falnyr watched the various people leaving the square; his blue eyes looked around lying on the bodies of the dead offices at his feet. He wished that there had been another way to do this, some way that didn’t leave these scarred corpses lying lifeless on the ground. There was no smile on his face any more, wiped away by the blood of the dead. He heard Reddo announce their plan of attack, the centre of the village. How much damage had the police already done? How many lives had they taken? He straightened and forced a smile upon his face even though he felt no joy inside. If he was going to do this he might as well face death with a smile.

[exit]

[hirihi]

Hirihi stood at attention, waiting for Jin to give them orders. He was the highest rank among them, not just in strength but in all official capacity. As he spoke his appreciation that it was her that joined him, a mild blush flushed to her face. She didn't think she was that great of a medic, but she was better than a novice. When he spoke of their plan of action on where to go, she nodded her agreement.

The red-haired girl that came to give them the kunai was very familiar, someone she had probably seen but never got their name. Once they were all set, all introductions put aside, Hirihi followed Jin and Okami on the way out of the main square and on towards their target. She made sure everything was situated on her before walking away. Syncing her communication device in her ear to everyone else's while walking, Hirihi was prepared for whatever came their way.

[Spirit™]

"Well then." Reddo started. "We're headed to central."
"Venture forth fellow accomplices our instructions have been foretold." Ace agreed quickly with a nod. Rin noticed that he grabbed a custom kunai while muttering some gibberish to another nin. Any help would definitely be appreciated and so Rin didn't say a word. It looked like they would be headed to Central.
"Let's get moving." Rin stated, and the three kept it moving towards central.

[Li Hebbi]

It seemed like his team was all picked out and they were ready to make their move. They were approached by one referring to herself as a Duchess. That was a little odd Hebbi thought but he dismissed it quickly trying to stay focused. As his team was talking Hebbi went to each of the three crossbows he had just acquired and reloaded them. They weren't much use just to sit around his shoulders. He checked his inventory one hundred and fifty bolts minus one from each of the pistols that had already been fired left him with one hundred and forty seven shots. He knew he would never need that many but it didn't hurt to have a few extra.

When all of his equipment was in place he took one last look around to see who was going where. When he had that added to his memory he would follow the three out of the square and towards the tower. It would be now that he would realize he was the only one without a com device. He hopped this didn't bite him in the ass later as he wouldn't mention it.

[Okami]

With his partner clone set up in the square that was still occupied by ANBU, the clone that had been only harvesting chakra decided it was time to follow his master. He had not waited very long, and so had gained precious little extra chakra, but he would follow anyway. Jin himself wouldn't last too long with nearly half his reserves gone. Heading east, tthe clone left.

[Exit one shadow clone]

[Okami]

Pulling his projection back as soon as he realized what the Uchiha was doing, the final shadow clone awoke to find everyone else had gone. He had gathered all the information he could reasonably hope to find, and now all that was left was delivering the information. Splitting himself again, he would form two Jins with the capacity for little more than taijutsu. First he would go after the boy who may actually need help, the one who headed West alone. The newly created Jin headed off while the remaining one stayed to gather more energy. Once he harvested enough to split again, he would head to where his information may actually be useful.

[Exit one shadow clone]

[Okami]

Gathering enough chakra to split one final time, the shadow clone created another duplicate. The two clones were incredibly weak, and doing anything strenuous would probably cause them to dissipate. Sending off his last minion, the shadow clone would sit down and rest. His feet still gathered chakra, but he was out of plans.
