Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tachi

The ANBU leader sighed, withdrawing his blade once more. Apparently the man's ego was too great to even imagine someone else existing who could best him. Rather sad, considering the low quality posts moves he was using to combat them. "Very well Uchiha, then I shall have to show you." With that, The ANBU Leader, who from this point forward shall be known as Tachi the Epic, dropped low to the ground and spun, dragging his leg rapidly along the sandy surface kicking up a large dust cloud, and sending plenty flying into the man's face to boot. Under the cover of the cloud of vision obscuring dust, he moved behind the man, using the skills of one trained for a lifetime among the sands to blot out any evidence of his having moved. From his new vantage point, it was but a simple matter to lunge his blade straight forward into the man's back, and thanks to Tachi's speed, he would likely still be there.

Even if I'm are enslaved by the galaxy's cycle of rebirth,
the feelings I leave behind will open the door!

Even if the infinite Universe were to go against me,
my burning blood with cut through Fate!

I'll break through heavens and dimensions!
I'll show you our path through force!

There was a small sigh, followed by: "Will you three give it a rest already?" Aeden was standing at the entrance, one arm blocking the ANBU's blade, shades covering his eyes. "Oh look, my favorite topless annoyance." Oh yes, it might have been a year, and his memories may still have been a little sketchy, trying to sort out the others' memories from his own, but Cody... he remembered Cody all to well. He was the one that kissed his woman right in front of him. But that was a year ago, and if he were to make an appearance, it was for something important, especially for coming back here of all places. The fun part would be to see if Cody recognized him. Sure, the coat and hair color were the same, but other than that, even his personality had gone for a nine hundred flip.

His eyes turned to the other group, whom he didn't know. "Oi! Smokey! You with him?" Nothing that held a chakra source escaped Aeden's eyes. They acted as heightened chakra sensors. No way to hide and simply observe.

Tachi

Tachi smirked with satisfaction as he felt the solid feeling of his sword piercing flesh, only too look up as the dust cleared to find not the target he had expected, but the man that passed the gates earlier on standing before him, Tachi's sword buried hilt deep in his arm. The other guards in the area were surrounding him in an instant, all blades at his neck. "The Kazekage accepted you. Do not get in our way." Tachi growled, his eyes scanning the area until they landed upon Cody, who seemed to be perched in a rather large cactus. That couldn't feel good at all. Had he forgotten there were no trees in the desert, and tried to use it as cover, not seeing it clearly through the sand in his eyes?

Yanking his sword free of the interference's arm, Tachi backed up a few feet, to where he could see both S rank nuisances at once. How did he know the new one was that level? Other than the fact he could feel power pouring off of him, only an S rank had that much foolish confidence, to think their flesh was made from impenetrable steel.

And then another presence arrived, one he recognized only too well. The ex-kazekage, now sannin, had apparently returned early from her trip. And didn't seem too interested in helping defend her village. The man with the bear he understood, he had no reason to involve himself, but the village's supposed leader? "You! If you are a shinobi of Sunagakure, do your duty and defend her gate!" He called out, before turning his eyes fully onto the Uchiha. He trusted his subordinates to keep watch over the other man, and if he was truly accepted by the kazekage as reports suggested, he would not attack them anyways.

{Aeden, don't complain about the stab wound. You should have seen it coming. Nobody has skin strong enough to stop a blade, and you made no specification of having any sort of shield. That, and in case you guys both forgot, ANBU are the elite defenders of the villages, they aren't weak by any means, much less weak enough to be treated as you are treating them.

Cody, don't complain about the cactus. I got sick of waiting for you to edit your post, and because trees don't happen to grow in the middle of the desert, it was the closest thing I could come up with. I expect your next post to include a full paragraph of at least three sentences for the cactus alone. I'll also be expecting you to make reference to clearing your eyes out at some point, or any vision based actions you take from here on out are null.

Misa, there are in fact seven men in clear view. Two gate guards, three ANBU, and Aeden and Cody. Plus one behind a rock that you should have seen, since you came from the same direction as him. That's why I said to read back through the entire thing. }

{{Misa....you do realize....Cody is in the middle of a battle right? You really shouldn't try to just have a casual conversation with him like that. There's 1000 things wrong with that. And weren't you the Kage when he left your village? I would just kinda assume you'd want to kill him or something. sweatdrop Just saying...}}

{ ... No. Invalidated. You just spent five minutes SITTING THERE, and then simply ran off? A genin would have killed you in that time. Redo it. }

{ ALSO INVALID. Cody isn't just walking away from this without beating the guards between him and the gate, so you have nobody to follow. I'm going to say this one more time. These are not weaklings that you can just ignore and boss around. Keep messing around here, and I WILL have them kill you. }
