Welcome to Gaia! ::

::the Kusakage looked down at Kodomo putting a finger to her lips:: shhh ::she looked over at Hinata, she had no doubt noticed by now the two of them there. She was willing to help leaf being as they were neighbors and understood their plight::

[Aburame, again.]

With a muffled curse, Kotai withdrew his insects from Tentu's body, though left his within Hinata's. "If you make one wrong move, Tentu... it will be I who takes your life. Never forget that." He leapt from Heracle's backplates and began to spin clockwise as he tucked in his arms to make himself more aerodynamic. "Hajime!" Behind his shattered goggles, his eyes began to disect, forming green grids. "Kikkai Doujutsu!" He blinked his lids and grunted, as he could now see through the eyes of the Destruction Bugs that had stayed with Hinata. There were two people with her... not good.

"I'm coming!" His scarves extended, the polymer/steel mesh shooting into the ground around Kodomo and Kitsune. These served as platforms for him, to lessen the impact with which he hit the earth. Kicking off of one alley wall to the other, he made a light touchdown, his last kunai in his left hand. "Invaders, prepare to die!" He placed the kunai against his fist and extended four fingers, three on the right and one on the left. "Kikkai Bunshin no jutsu!" With a great many crawling noises, insects poured out of his body, swirling together in a puff of smoke.

Five identical Kotai now stood ready in front of Kodomo and Kitsune, their slightly glowing scarves wrapped around their arms.

::Kitsune's eyes narrowed and her hands emediatly(sp?) came into a position infront of her solar plexis ready to perform hand seals, but she wished to avoid the conflict all together...there was no reason to be fighting each other when they could be fighting cloud-nin or stone-nin:: We mean the young lady no harm I assure you...we are merely here to help...the young boy here ::she motioned at Kodomo:: has just done Leaf a large favor and killed cloud-nins who were mercilessly slaughtering fleeing leaf-nin...

Kotai grumped, glaring at the two as they stood in the alleyway facing them. He didn't lower his kunai, but his clones did. They stared down Kodomo and Kitsune as they brushed by them to stand guard at either end of the alley as lookouts. "Alright, Hinata-chan... I turned Tentu loose, as well. The muhon-nin seems as though he were controlled by something else... he doesn't have the same sort of power as he did before when the man of shadows was facing him." He explained, ever watching. "And it's no longer just about Cloud or Stone!" His voice rose as he spoke to those new to Leaf. "In case you haven't noticed, there's a massive host of some ungodly abominations killing everything and everyone indiscriminately! I've seen those that are slain by these... foul, undead creatures... return as part of their own unholy forces!" His fist clenched the cracked kunai tightly, white knuckles beneath his handwraps.

I'm sorry for I haven't noticed...I have only just arrived from Hidden Grass to here. I would gladly aid my neighbors in there time of need. ::she nodded her head to Kotai stareing unnerved back at the clones her eye markings making her look more feral as the eyes narrowed at them slightly not appreciatly the look that they were giving an elder::

(I'll gladly rejoin this rp..just..someone tell me where you all are at currently.)

I am Kage Kitsune, kusakage of Hidden Grass ::she bowed her head slightly due to introductionary purposes. She flicked her fingers unsnapping the peices of leather that held her iron fans in place, she grabbed them unfolding them with a crack that sounded like lightning. She held them at her sides looking past the people to where the people were fighting::
