"RRRRRRRRRR." Tier tied the bag up again and left it beside the fountain. He dragged both the bag and Kwubara behind the fountain where it casted a large shadow. He formed several handseals and did strange movements with his arms as the fountain's large shadow started to physically cover over Kwubara and the bag.
Krähetechniken: Schatten von Korruption (Shadows of Corruption)
They would be camouflaged in with the fountain's shadow until Kwubara awakes again and breaks the Jutsu.
Tier went to the Mizu Dojo's trams and headed towards the Main Dojo.

Kwubara woke up and pulled free of the jutsu. After looking around and relizing Tier is gone he decided to practice the jutsu Iri taught him.

Time passed. He didn't know how long. It could have been minutes, hours, or seconds. Kwubara was now able to use the jutsu in battle, but now he had nothing to practice. Then a thought hit him. He would ask Iri to teach him a new one so that he had something to do when Tier dissapeared. Kwubara hid the bag in the fountain where it wouldn't get wet and then turned into a cloud and drifted toward the Kaze Dojo.

___________________________________________________________________________ Tier was sitting with his legs criss-crossed on one of the wooden walkways for most of the day. He was trying to improve his patience and focus; clearing the mind. Not before long, Tier's single yellow eye looked upwards and noticed the eclipse above that was forming.

After watching the eclipse for seven minutes, Tier made the realization that the moon was locked in position. A normal eclipse would have subsided by now. The first thought that came to his head was that this was a genjutsu; someone was attacking him right now.
Tier stood to his feet. His single yellow eye spun in it's socket to scan the immediate area. No one was around him. During the scan, Tier noticed something off in the distance flying through the sky. He didn't pay close enough attention to it.

The birds were drawing closer, several scouting ahead of the rest. If Tier was still looking he would notice an illusion, not entirely unlike genjutsu, wrapped around the birds, making their dark coloration harder to distinguish from the night sky.

He switched his yellow eye to night vision when the things that were flying in the sky started to disappear into the blackness of the night. Tier zoomed in while switching between heat vision, night vision, and chakra vision. He went back to chakra vision when he realized that the birds didn't have chakra flowing through them. There was also some kind of residue that was left behind on the birds. This wasn't the first time Tier recognized the signs of a recently summoned object. It's the same residue that's left behind when Tier summons his ax, Garm.
He assumed the birds' objective was either to stage an attack or a reconnaissance. Maybe it was both. He noticed that some of the birds had branched off to the different dojo locations. Possibly to research who's capable of what abilities. He kept in mind to refrain himself from using any kind of special technique.
Tier was also keeping note of how close the birds were getting to his current position.
Within firing range not.

The birds flying towards Tier seemed to make a decision, suddenly they split into groups. Four groups, around thirty birds to a group. One group flew directly at Tier, climbing up for several moments before diving directly at him.
The second and third groups went wide, keeping their distance as they flew, looking as if they avoiding Tier as they headed towards the dojo. The fourth group scattered, spiraling around in a way that was fitting with the observation hypothesis.

Tier made several calculations and assumptions within the next three seconds. His yellow eye swung to each direction the four groups of birds had split into. The last group he focused on was the suicidal one.
He lifted his palm towards the sky as geysers of mist were forced from the murky waters surrounding the dojo. A heavy mist soon fell over the area.
Tier formed several hand seals while crouching to the ground and slamming a palm against the wooden walkway, Summoning: Garm divided.

Of the suicide group the first bird pushed itself ahead of the rest, ending up half way between Tier and the rest of it's group. It's feathers went rigid. It's eyes widening before it burst, spraying out far more putrid green ichor or feathers then should fit into a bird of it's size. The bladed feathers flew in all directions, even grazing it's nearest allies in a manner that seemed to effect them, but the ichor seemed to leave a hissing noise off everything it came into contact with.

Before Tier got up from crouching, he lifted a palm towards the oncoming bird. The mist in front of Tier started to thicken rapidly, making it sticky and difficult to move through. In turn, this greatly delayed the bird's movement through the air. When it exploded, the mist around it had cleared. Tier grabbed the two short swords from the ground (that he just summoned) and leaped backwards. Some of the acid had almost reached him while a couple of the feathers had lost momentum through the mist and bounced off his exoskeleton's chakra field.
Tier opened his mask's mouth and placed the two short swords horizontally between his shark-like teeth. He then formed several hand seals while his body began to disperse into the mist.
The mist where the bird had exploded started to recover to it's original state.

The attacking birds changed their course slightly, pulling out of the dive and circling around, breaking formation as they started to search. The birds beginning to caw as the mist thickened. The noise seeming like a crude attempt at echolocation.
The two divided groups had reached the dojo, increasing the space between one another a great deal as several dived, attacking the wooden walkways first, but several more intrepid members attempting to breach the dojo, first crashing into the area around the fountain. Before several decided to target the large stone door, the explosions becoming noticeable larger with each impact.

He had seen this tactic before. Whether the birds were utilizing it or not, Tier wasn't going to oblige. They can have the dojo if that was their objective. Even if Tier wanted to, he couldn't stop them without giving away what his special techniques were. Those birds were basically bombs, and he wasn't about to waste chakra or risk giving away more techniques to save a building that was destroyed once before. If it was a comrade's life, the situation would have been different.
The mist started to expand past the dojo grounds and towards the forest; extending Tier's possible escape routes.

The birds slowly destroyed the building, ensuring everything was either buried or dissolved.
Those attempting to scout and those that had attempted attack Tier joined together into a large group before fanning out in a spiral search pattern. Their cawing noises dying down and their pattern seeming far too controlled.

A steady stream of mist-geysers shot up towards the sky, engulfing the birds and their senses. Any sound from outside the mist would be distorted to anyone who was inside it. The stream of geysers stopped.
Three unidentified figures dashed into the forest in opposite directions from each other.
