Ren closed his hands over his ears and got up to walk across the Dojo. He got to the other side and placed both hands on the Dojo's wall. The texture of his skin was mimicking the wall's texture before he suddenly fell through and out of the Dojo. Ren started to run and turned to look back with his optical bloodline still activated. He could see they were still knocking on the door.

He stopped knocking when the bigger Shinobi Soldier tapped the slim one on his shoulder. The bigger Soldier indicated with hand signals that their target was around the building now. Both of them took opposite sides of the Dojo and ran around to catch up to Ren. Both Shinobi Soldiers met up at the back of the Dojo and saw Ren running away.

Ren felt the hairs on his body raise when they started to come after him so suddenly. One of them must have been a sensory type to have known so quickly that Ren had made an escape.
He reached to his back and realized that his backpack was still in the Tsuchi Dojo.
Crap, I shouldn't have gone without it after all.
Ren was trying to calm himself while running from the two.

The large Soldier ran at Ren's back while throwing his hand forward as a beam of concentrated fire spewed forth from the palm. The beam would fly past Ren's body as a warning shot; the grass caught fire directly under it's flying path as a result of the intense heat.
The slim Soldier also gave chase, but his speed was faster than that of an average Shinobi. He was doubling Ren's current speed as he gave chase.

Ren saw the attack coming with his optical bloodline and dodged away from the oncoming beam of fire. His attention quickly turned to the other person who was running at him very fast. Ren was conserving his chakra because of how little he had right now. He continued to run away.

The beam of fire lost its power as it traveled through the air and dispersed. The larger soldier continued to chase after the two since he was the last one behind.
The slim soldier was now running alongside Ren, "Give up. Then we don't have to hurt you."
He was waiting for a response as they were running forward.

An air spy has been following Ren since he left the Rai Dojo. Nothing but a swirling ball of air with a core of carefully hidden energy, they have probably gone unnoticed. Now the spy splits something like a cell. The spies multiply until there are six in all. One of them races toward Ren and begins to follow him right next to his ear. Two more aim for the intruders. They streak forward and past the three men. At the same time, they condense themselves, becoming highly pressurized, and turning into air bombs. Then then they come back around and rush them. Both of them aim for the stomach. Armor is usually weak there, in order to allow the user a better range of motion. When the bombs hit, it'll feel like getting kicked in the gut by a small horse. Then, when they explode, it'll be with enough force to send them flying back and probably cause severe internal damage and a few broken ribs. Even if they happen to notice the bombs and dodge them, they'll detonate as soon as they get close enough to do damage. Ren should be untouched, as the direction of the blasts will be concentrated to keep them from taking out the Tsuchi student.
A voice is in Ren's ear, emitting from the spy. It's Iri. "Keep going, Ren! Go back to Rai, and find Tier! I'll try to keep them off of you!"

"!?"
Ren had stopped in his tracks when the faster person had caught up with him and witnessed some kind of explosion that occurred near both of the men.
He heard the voice speak to him; it was very familiar.
Oh, oh! Someone's helping me..!
Ren realized that these seconds of distraction were vital to getting away unharmed.
He took off in the opposite direction of the faster man and turned to head towards the Rai Dojo. Ren still didn't use the last of his chakra yet.

The larger soldier was hit clean in the stomach and was flung backwards to crash against the Tsuchi Dojo's backwall. There was a flash of red chakra on his exoskeleton before the air bomb had gone off.
The slimmer soldier's four eyes had targeted the balls of air chakra as they were making their way to setup the attack. Electricty brimmed across the slim soldier's red exoskeleton as his speed increased ten fold for a second. The man had made a strong dash to escape the explosion entirely and appeared twenty feet away as a result. To normal eyes it would seem as if he flickered out of existance in that split second.
When he came to a sliding stop, the slim soldier threw one of his hands at the ground; electricity had gathered to the hand. He pointed with the electrically charged hand and shot a bolt of weakened lightning at Ren's legs. If it hit, it would temporarily paralyze Ren's legs. The slim soldier's four eyes were still looking around for any more air bombs.
"Umen!"
"Refuto. There's a main one flying around. I'll take care of it."
The larger soldier was starting to get up from the clearing debris. His four eyes were adjusting to the environment. This time he was ready to counter any air bomb that might come his way. The first air bomb had left a burnt mark on his red exoskeleton's stomach.
The only way an air bomb would be able to get to him now was if it came from the front, considering there was a Dojo directly behind him. The status of his exoskeleton took little to no damaged at the expense of chakra.
Umen, the large soldier, was searching not only for air bombs, but for the source of the air bombs.

Ren saw the attack coming again. He suddenly jerked his body to the right before the bolt of lightning was sent at him. His optical bloodline was watching how the slim soldier was manipulating chakra, and based off of that, Ren is able to tell when an attack will volley. A person's chakra would suddenly spike for a moment when sending off an attack. There's always some kind of fluctuation inside the person's body right before an attack is made.
Ren continued to run towards the trees.

Two of the spies continue to follow Ren. Meanwhile, one of them forms a perfect copy of Iri. She forms between the slim soldier and the retreating Tsuchi student. The Fury looks calm and relaxed, though a slight narrowing of her eyes and a furrowing of her brow suggests she's not too happy with the intruders. She takes on step toward the slim man and raises a hand, holding it out to her side and slightly behind her.
The spy next to Ren's ear speaks again. "I'm busy elsewhere, Ren. Something's happened to Ookamimaru. I'll distract them, but there's not much else I can do."

"U-uuh!"
Ren kept running and turned his head to look behind him to see a clone of Iri between him and the slim soldier.
"Couldn't you send someone else over here? I think these guys are pretty serious and I'm really low on chakra and stamina! The slim one is very fast and the bigger one can manipulate fire.
To be honest I don't know if I can make it."

"Refuto, someone's coming." The large soldier, Umen, stated.
Refuto, the slimmer soldier, was staring right through Iri at the retreating Ren. "Umen, we won't have another chance."
Umen finally got up and held out a hand towards the clone of Iri that was in front of Refuto. Another concentrated beam of fire shot forth from the open hand to disperse the clone's physical form. The heat of the fire was strong enough to disrupt any kind of wind current's control.
Refuto, the slimmer soldier, had started to charge electricity into his lower legs. In a powerful leap, Refuto went high over Iri's clone's head and landed on the other side before aiming another weak lightning bolt at Ren's legs. After he shot the bolt from his hand, Refuto gave chase again; making sure to triple his speed to catch up for lost ground.

Ren saw the attack coming but he underestimated his own fatigue. He tried to dodge suddenly again while conserving chakra but was stuck in the left leg. Ren tumbled across the ground.
"GAH!"

The clone leaps up and beats its wings, traveling upward with speed and fluidity that Iri's physical form doesn't have. Then she shoots after the Rai nin. What Umen doesn't know, is that she doesn't have to be looking at him to know what he's doing or what's going on. Iri's clones sense things in a totally different way than the real thing. So she's not even letting her guard down.
After a moment in which the clone seems to disappear, it's right behind Refuto. She swipes her hand through the air three times. One wind blade aims for the back of his neck, the other to his lower back, and the last to the backs of his knees.
