Welcome to Gaia! ::

Aki took off after her, easily keeping pace with the sanin. Wind whipped at her face as she followed, taking the most direct route back to Konoha.

"YOU...AGAIN..." He said slowly pulling out the blade from the Mizukage.

It wasn't longer after that they reached Konoha's borders, darting down the streets to the Hokage's mansion. Some people watched, a strange expression on their face.

"Summon as many ninja as you can find that are in good condition." Tsunade commanded. Aki bowed and disappeared, off to search for shinobi to aide them.

"Your too foolish to have come, i hope you know, I CANT BE KILLED!!!" The "Wanderer" said widening his blank eyes.

"Your previous attack, was impressive, but it lacked power, you missed "IT". Oh an look out. Theres more around." He said in his crackly voice from behind his mask. Suddenly copies of the "Wanderer", behind Ryu, Underneath him and above him on the celing, each of them with a cold blank stare.

"And to think you were already with an intent to kill. You were still boring then, but know i've studdied your movesa nd your attacks, Which is why i sent a clone elsewhere, beginning to create a enourmous time-warp, capable of destroying this world, to a disclosed location. If you want to know where, you'll have to fight through all of us and look for it yourself." the "Wanderer" said, as a cackleing sinister laugh began to echo inside the room.

"How entertaining, but the more time you waste, the less cahnce of stopping the clone you'll have from completeing the rift. You do know that right?" the "Wanderer" said, as the clones began to crawl around the walls around them. "This battle wont be over soon, i can assure you of that."
