( xd Right, right.)
Xenon nodded his head "Of course." as the ANBU nearby seemed to be calming the populace, he looked to the petrified crow which was still on his shoulder. Mokutan was looking at the woman like she might suddenly grow a thousand feet tall and start smashing things. The Bird's attachment to his master was the only thing that kept him from fleeing "Mokutan."
The bird snapped out of his fear and looked at the boy. "Uh-uh...yeah chief?"
"Would you go fetch Lord Kasuke?"
The bird seem to seize the opportunity to leave and still be under orders. "Sure thing boss!" He took off in a hurry, making his way back toward the Kage building.
Kimiko was now standing just behind Maboroshi, her eyes still not leaving Nakamura. She was right now at a center of several different motivations. The first was her fiery determination beat the living hell out of anything that threatened something important to her, and her teammate and rival fell in the category, even her Sensei who was also in the line of fire. If this lady made one move outta line... but the other force was her naive hope that everyone was good deep down, and she was slowly starting to trust that Nakamura meant well after all.
Yet another force was the slight fear that she felt in the presence of this girl who had even their Sensei on edge, but that was getting beat up and seismic tossed into a strangle hold by her indomitable, possibly suicidal, but not quite at the level of Raine's, courage. This lady wasn't a ghost, large body of water, OR a walrus( rofl ), so Kimiko had nothing to fear... But Nakamura could summon large bodies of water...did that count? 'Nah.' she returned her attention to Maboroshi as he spoke again.
"Momoe-san, relax. She's not our enemy."
She looked at her rival slightly alarmed. Maybe he could read minds after all... she hated it when he did that... "Hey! I'm calm!"
Xenon smirked slightly "Ah yes, your the very picture of ease. However could I have doubted you?"
"...Shut up Maboroshi."

A void was the best way to explain this. Or maybe more like a sink. All bodies other than their own seemed to be on the move to exit the village. What a surprise they'd have when they found the path blocked by burning debree and the air foul with burnt flesh. This made Star giggle a bit at the prospect and almost made her want to go back and check the area just to see what peoples reactions were but they were here on vacation... not a bloodbath.
Kage, the most level headed in all realms of this group simply surveyed the area. Not enough information was provided. For one, if the people were fleeing because of the stunt Star just pulled, they'd be running to the other exits, not the one the event occurred at. Thrill seekers were ruled out as most seemed in a panic. Two, there was no discernible void, direction or whole in the running pattern meaning that they weren't running from a particular point, just a random run. In the end, this all read as a general evacuation. No one was screaming but they weren't walking either... it was an urgent evacuation but not one that was of direct need this moment.
Still, what would cause an entire ninja village to empty out preemptively to an actual strike? Oto was a weaker village but still it was a ninja village. Had another, more powerful village threatened a strike? No... they would have heard about it while on the road... what was going on?
Looking over, Kage extended a hand out to grip the throat of a man running nearby. "Speak..."
"Ack!....c...can....ca..........c....." Kage loosened his grip slightly, "AHHHHHH....W... we've had an order to evacuate the village... I think someones threatened to attack...."
"Who?"
"I don't know..."
A quick release would cause the man to realize he had been lifted up into the air. A quick drop and tumble before he would roll to his feet and continue off, keeping an eye back toward them.
So... we're in the middle of an exodus apparently... lets see whats going on around here...

Kurina got out form the kage's office, and walked slowly towards the village center, watching how all the the villagers packed their stuff , and walked out from their houses. she had a blank expression on her face,somehow sad or careless. she couldn't help but wonder on what was going on,and what she was going to do,where to go and all that stuff,her ninja future was on the edge now.
she noticed several people around, a boy, two girls,one seemed around her age and the other was an adult or something like it, she wasnt from here,kurina figured out. she noticed other ninjas around,this was interesting. she looked around and found a large tree branch, and sat on it. it was near enough so she could observe the situation. at least i get to do something beside walking with no path to follow.... she thought and slightly giggled.

Little Miss stood there, looking as emotionless as her figure would have her be. She didn't need to breath in this form, didn't need to eat, didn't even need to blink. She did these things only out of habbit from her time among the truly living but she had gotten good at simply not doing it when she wanted. However, her eye's were still absorbed in thought. She was scanning the area for anything strange when she noticed something that couldn't be good... Rain was skipping off towards something. "That could be trouble..."
Rain was skipping along the path, moving back and forth through the people towards the sounds of talk that came deeper in. She had overheard the conversation as she moved closer and smiled gently as she cleared the flesh river and came out to view a woman draped in a kimono speaking with a few others. She was calm but the others seemed a bit on edge... this was it wasn't it? She was the cause for the panic.
Rain, standing no more than a few feet away from the woman, gazing up at her from her own small frame. To anyone who looked upon her that didn't know exactly what they were looking for, Rain, Kage and Mistress would look perfectly human: a good trick of proper crafting and clothing choices. She would stand behind this woman of the snow and soon burst into a giggle. "I bet you taste sweat with syrup on you. Like a regular living breathing snowcone."
Twisted... maybe but that was her way. She began to skip around Nakamura while humming a little tune. No words to it really, just something she made in her head. It was all a bit disconcerting really.

((Rain being the Earth Master... **at least that's what I remember, and Mistress being the Water Master.
Rolling for Sleight of Hand))
When the newer arrival decided to dance around her in a rather annoying verse, Nakamura let out a soft sigh, her breath visible to those in front of her.
"Tell me, do you know nothing of those you taunt? Amadeus told me about you... and it's a shame that you don't intimidate me." she looked towards the Oto Shinobi, unsure if they knew who this was. "I suggest the young flee now." she added, for surely they would recognize the stories heard about this.... woman. She seemed different than the images she recalled through Ayala's eyes, but the voice... was uncanny. It had to be her. Unless they were shelled away from the world, then they should at least have heard stories about them. Then again... they didn't even seem to recognize her either.
"Now, you, on the other hand..." Nakamura paused, allowing her thoughts to flow to her companions.
Zenjin! Hyousetsu! Ayala! Defensive position Omega!
In the blink of an eye, three small puffs of dust rose up around Nakamura in a protective triad. Each of her wolven companions had their hackels raised, their eyes following Rain.
"I'm rather pleased that you showed up; so that I may add a second of your kind to my tally... Rain, the Earth Master." Nakamura's eyes grew much colder, and in depth, it seemed that she was concerned for her kimono. Her hands quickly drew into her sleeves and drew out several shuriken. The question was this; would she be able to end this battle before it even began... However, several of the kunai she had hidden in her kimono slid out and dropped onto the floor. This is why I don't wear loose clothing! she shouted in her mind, not worrying about the fallen blades.
Ayala didn't like this situation. She could tell something was amiss about her, but she couldn't place her paws upon it. Let alone, how she managed to come to Otogakure at the same time that Nakamura was coming. Perhaps the Sound were the ones behind this... and yet... it was too soon to come to any conclusions. Be ready to attack. She's known for not showing any form of mercy.
Shunshin no Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique)
A high-speed movement technique. It is described as 'appearing with the wind and disappearing like the wind.' A very basic jutsu, it appears that most shinobi above Genin-rank know it. Using chakra to activate the body, the user is able to move from one point to another with extreme speeds. This super-fast movement is almost impossible to see with the naked eye. To a normal person, it would seem as if the user has teleported. The amount of Chakra used depends on the distance and elevation between the user and the destination.
Cp cost: 1 per ft
Damage: N/A
Requirements: Dexterity 20+
Training days: 3 days.
Special: When rolling initiation checks or racing, or anything that involves speed, add chk mod to the dice roll.
Zenjin Remaining Cp = 3820
Hyousetsu Remaining Cp = 1940
Ayala Remaining Cp = 2860
Nakamura's roll = 1 ((-20)) + 111 = gonk Epic Fail... to make it 91
**Stabs Carlos with his Tonberry knife that she stole awhile ago.**

( confused Okaaay, My Genin exit, stage right)
Xen's entire form seized up. Somthing...something strange was... he closed his eyes. 'Run.' He opened them and looked at the rather unhinged girl who had apprently set even Nakamura on guard. 'RUN!' he blinked again looking around. What was going on? He felt that familiar sensation that seemed to strike him around danger...but... was it the girl?
Kimiko started to step forward, apparently intending to pull the girl away from the potentially dangerous woman, but Maboroshi seized her arm. She looked at him confused. "What is it?"
"Somthing's..." he looked around again. "Here..." suddenly, amidst the gathering crowd...his blood practically froze. The figure. The figure that had dogged the shadows of his life sense the incident, the person who he suspected had slaughtered the former residents of his town...assumedly in retribution for what had been done to him... why were they here? They'd never shown themself in public before, always when he was alone... so why...
'RUN!'
His golden eyes narrowed. He glanced at Lady Nakamura. His question he had wanted to ask her would have to wait... something here...was just not right. He looked at his team. He wouldn't be able to take more than one, and his favorite toy was more important than either Raine or his Commander, she had her uses, they were little more than diversionary amusements. He suddenly wrapped an arm around Kimiko.
Kimiko went beet red. "Maboroshi! What are you-!!??"
But she never finished her sentence. In a sudden flicker, the pair were gone...

A glittering dance of embers performed above the scene..and as the embers fell a great blue flame burst into existence embracing a shadowed figure nd what seemed to be a curved blade.The Anzan hed elder dtood where the flames broke out not a singed roof tile to be found but the blades curved tip rested upon the top most roof tile carving it gently as if anticipating its eternal hunger to be finally quenched."This is an enlightening scene...what a suprise..."The Anzan stated staring downward at the scene of Rain the earth master dancing around The woman with the snow kimono on...wait...Rain!? was she not defeated by her own comrade in battle!? this would be a cunundrum to watch...surely..the kage and the masters battle would engulf the city in war and pillagery.He stared down towards his Anzan bretheren and as he did so his ebon and plaster stare sent a chill down the far off ANBU's spine...he knew what this meant. and seeing the masters image sent the ANBU into survival mode quickly running towards the crowd and blurring from existence. Shif saw this and did the same both only to reapear shortly after in the middle of the huge crowd of villagers standing tall."people of otogakure!"Both ANBU proclaimed and then paused."Run towards the mountaintops...FLEE!" Both stated in unison and standing tall as the people instinctively began to fly ast them pushing and triping over their own two feet.

Kurina watched in horror, she wasn't used to this,she was only a child and a student, what was she going to do !.fleeeee...mountaintops...like i know where the hell that is... she thought nervously as she listened to both anbu.
they were shouting and telling people to run there,she witnessed the battle that was going on with the lady, and what seemed to be earth master, she didn't know anything about it,only stories that they were killed, but apparently they weren't . she got up from the tree branch, and ran to change her location, she started running following the crowds, but then stopped. whats the use of running....i wana see what happened... she thought for a sec, then she went to a far place near where the people were going. the place was far, and if she sensed danger she would leave, but it was safe to observe the situation.

Rain stopped dancing for a moment and let her head drape down. The hair on her head, almost read actually... wait... it was real hair but not hers... someone else's. Had Star... no, a premade wig, yes, that was it... hopefully. Her dancing coming to a close would bring a sort of silent ambiance to the area. Those who were still running through the area had stopped and looked on. Not so much because they wanted to see the fight. No... they were smarter than that, they wanted to see what direction the fight went to so they could know which direction NOT to go in.
A slow turn on her heels and soon a gental sway would rock the body that she had been cursed into. The air would fill with the laughter of a child... warped by hatred and fear and laced with every bit of malice. To those who weren't true shinobi, the laugh would make your blood run cold. Even some full fledge shinobi would probably cringe at the sound.
"Hehehehehehehehehehehehe. Look at the pretty outfit you have on. Can I have one like it?" her voice was childlike... a lie of her actual age, "I promise not to get it dirty and I'll make sure it's nice and clean. But... really, no. I don't want a copy of it. I want that one... and your body to. Let's trade! I'll give you this body of eternal life and you give me that sexy body so I can have fun with boys again. I'm sure you probably don't understand any of that..."
She turned slightly and held up her hands. Minus the faintest traces of cress of her artificial flesh..."Give me that body! You don't deserve it!" her voice wasn't childlike anymore. It held every bit of her appeared age at the time of her death but also every bit of anger she ever felt.
Soon she looked up. Through her hair, a single glowing eye could be seen as she looked to the wolfs that had surrounded this woman. Again, her actions and voice returned to a child like state, "Ooooh, pretty doggies. Can I have them? I lost my kitty... Where is she anyway? A rude little boy in some village took her from me... She was the only person that ever loved me... I want her back and him dead... Did he come from your village? Is my kitty in your village?! GIVE HER BACK!" A wave of pressure washed over the area. The puppet shouldn't have that kind of chakra but, then again, none of them knew she was a puppet. Only those who could see chakra would be able to see that Star had attached a chakra string to the puppet and was feeding her chakra.
This wasn't looking to good for the landscape.

(Achem -_-, I guess you all missed the part about posting order in the rp academy.) Raine stood from a far watching as Xen and Kimiko left his side to address the woman in the white kimoto. He held his breath as he saw her. Feeling his heart slow as his body filled with dread. Who knows where or when, but somehow, Raine knew this girl. He shook his head, knowing that he had never been to the village in the snow, and yet when he looked upon her he filled with a fear he did not know he could own.
Pi poked his head from the boy's poket with a frown, he clawed at the fabric. "Raine what's wrong?" The ajolote whispered, never having heard such a heartbeat from him. Taking a breath once more, Raine watched Dash shift as Xen spoke, he was slowly shifting back and around the others. His exposed swords flicking up as his wrists twitched. Although from the dialogue that he heard, Dash was nearly convinced of a peaceful ongoing with Nakamura, he would never give into trusting who he did not know. It was a deadly mistake in the ninja world, and as he moved he sought out the best places to attack. Looking for week points, blind spots. Anything that might give him the upper hand for an attempt at an attack, even just to save the stupid kids who had gone up to them. Which truly surprised him, of any he had figured Xen to be smart enough to stay away, and Raine bashful enough to run head first at her. An yet, the redhead boy was the only one of the three left behind. Dash's attention was caught by the expression of horror that Raine wore. Even for a child, Tekkenseisai weren't scared easily. He retreated backward with his eyes still fixed on the three before him.
"Raine." The boy looked up suddenly surprised. He shook his head and gasped a quick breath.
"Yeah, I um. Well Xen's bird went for Kasuke, and Shif. So I stayed." The man's gaze narrowed. What ever the case, their attention was quickly taken by a girl who had begun to prance around Nakamura. Together they stood, watching what could possibly happen now. As the three wolves burst into an obviously defensive stance. Dash gasped. What could possibly make a kage need a defensive stance! Whatever if was, he sheathed his swords instantly, and grabbed the boy and his side. Xen and Kimiko preformed Sushin to the man's relief, while Dash jumped to a near-by roof. He set the boy down, to see what would happen next. Raine held his sensei's jacket as he watched. Surely enough, Shif and Shisui soon showed up again and finally sent the public on the escape route that they needed to be taking. Dash shook his head. The chaos!
"Come on kid!" the jounin grabbed Raine once more, who wiling grabbed on to him. A tight grip for such a small kid. The man hopped forward quickly, landing hard on the next roof, due to the extra weight. His boots skidded, and the man set off at a run, slinging Raine along his back as he went to the head of the crowd. Throwing his arm up and yelling out to Shif and Shisui. "Hey we need to lead these people up to the mountains!" He didn't stop but hoped that the two anbu would help in the act of leading so many people. Coming to the center of the village, where people ran around him, some even stopping as if to watch. Dash spanned the large street in a jump and grabbed hold of the Hotels second floor. The small boy swung back over the street, his hands clasped around the leather sword holsters at his shoulders. Climbing up quickly, They soon stood above the small figures of power in the distance. Dash filled his lungs with air. "TO MOUNT OTO!" he bellowed across the huge open space. People looking up to him and beginning to run once more.

((*Poke's Cheer's comment about posting order*
HOLY CRIP IT'S A CRAPPLE!!! Double 20!!! blaugh
Roll 1 = Ranged Attack
Roll 2 = Successfull Jutsu))
Nakamura didn't care for this woman, nor did she appreciate the strange things she spoke of. Searching for her own companion? That was fine with her. Giving the slightest hint of an attempt upon her companions? That was a death sentence.
"Not only will you not touch my body, my companions, nor my kimono..." she began, throwing a single shuriken towards the Earth Master's face, but she had channeled enough chakra to use a defensive jutsu. She wasn't about to attempt an attack on this village. She may have hated this village, but she did owe them a debt. One that she seemed to be able to repay right now with the defense of their home.
Zenjin wasn't waiting around for orders. He took command of her other two subordinates, expressing that they stick to the villagers and keep them from danger. He, on the other hand, decided to take matters into his own hands. Nobody threatened Nakamura in his presence and lived to tell about it. Not a single person, and this wasn't going to be his first exception. However... something was amiss. He sniffed the air, seeking out her chakra, but there didn't seem to be one suiting of a Master within. Patience...
"But you will NOT enter this village. I've worked too hard to establish a speaking relationship with this village and you will not ruin it for me!" she concluded, her hands moving quickly together in front of her... even if they were hidden by her kimono's sleeves. After the last seal had been completed, an arctic wind seemed to erupt from out of nowhere, and it was then that she turned around to face Rain. She made sure that the blast was away from the village's gates, but close enough that it would get a direct attack on Rain unless she tried to avoid it.
"Kokuryubo Fusetsu!" she exclaimed, the ice dragon that followed erupted from the ground behind her. It only had one destination... the Earth Master.
Shuriken attack = 105 + d20 + 40 to Shuriken = 165 DC
Jutsu = 25 + 30 + 45 + 30 = 130 DC

[[yea, i see the 2 notes, that's where the question about if rolls were needed for jutsu came from. anyway, while waiting for the DC]]
"The fool's going to start a war here if she isn't careful..." Mistress spoke with a deep disdane in her voice. She was not the playful type and seeing Rain's carefree nature just disgusted her even more. To make matters worse she was putting a village that had nothing to do with any of this at danger.
Glancing over to Star, she examined her frame and only saw an onlooker... till she looked at her hands. She noticed a single digit extended a little further than the rest. She had seen this before and realized the inclination of this. A deep sigh left her throat.
Kage's eyes looked on as well and soon a shift in his body brought Star's attention to him.
"What?" the words left her throat low and in a bit of a hiss. Kage only looked on to her and shifted again as he looked to her. To others, this would seem as if he was just moving but Star knew her lover quite well. "We're only having fun, calm down. If things get bad we still have a few tricks."

In the village center the skies turned quickly, a building breeze picking loose papers from the ground and stirring them into delicate dances. High wires swung with an exuberant energy. Antenna on roof tops shook too, as a low howl grew in the alley ways.
Kasuke fell through the skies, the wind whipping back his robe. People ran below him, all thankfully back toward the mountains. The action stood before him and the rage in the man grew as he approached. His stormy eyes focused on the figures before him. Wolves triangulated around this Nakamura, the name given to his previous opponent. Her intentions apparently peaceful after all, and yet another attacker had come. He could almost feel the mass of chakra below him and knew that these were powerful beings.
He landed silently on the hotel roof, Dash and Raine escaping back with the people. The force of the wind growing around him as his chakra circulated the air around him. His robe whipping up around his stiff body, tensed to the extreme as he ground his teeth, grimacing down below. He spotted Raubahn along with shif and Shisui, when Yuumei got there, he would be reinforced by two sennin, which gave him hope in his cuase. Not to mention that Nakamura was apparently on his side, together they would be an impenetrable force. With a growling, deep voice Kasuke spoke down into the village center,"Welcome to the village hidden in the sound."
