Ookamimaru-kun
"So, when loser dead, attacks stopp'd?"
Ren walked as if he knew the the way on his thumb.
Ookamimaru wonders how close they are to civylisation.
Maybe, when he was stalking the deer,
they brought him to far to the edge of the forest.
While Ren was talking, he saw the herd of the pregnand female he killed.
At the sound of Ren's voice, they ran deeper in the forest.
He decided not to pay attention.
"Well that happened almost a week ago. So far there hasn't been an attack yet."
Ren shrugged, "We'll have to see what happens next."
The trees were getting thinner in trunk size as they were nearing the exit of the forest. Little bits and pieces of the Main Dojo's building was barely visible.

Barely visible, but Ookamimaru saw it none the less.
He had no idea he was this near to civilisation all this time.
With all the miles he traveled, it is ofcourse quite logical that he would once bounce up to someone.
He has seen buildings before, but when he saw one, he turned back round and went off in another direction.
He never tried to have contact.
The closest he ever came after the incident,
was like 2 years ago, when he stole a cow from a farm in a hard and very cold winter.

They finally exited the forest and the Main Dojo was in front of them several yards away. Ren looked around and could see that the tram station next to the Dojo was still working. The first time they were attacked the electricity had been cut off to the trams.
"There it is, the Main Dojo..! Those train things take you to different Dojo's according to their symbol."
Ren pointed above the tram station to where the symbols of the different elements were aligned with their respected tracks as they continued to walk towards the building. ((ITS FIXED YEAA))

A group of gunmen lined the opposing tree line. Their leader held out a hand to dissuade them from firing. The soldiers all seemed to be wearing modified exoskeletons black or gray in shade. Long square cloths covered their lower faces. The group gave no traces of chakra.

Something kept Ookamimaru from exiting the forest,
as he stood still between the last few trees.
He felt very incomfortable.
It must be the fact that he had never left the forest in such a long time.
Or was it something else?
His instinct told him not to go out of the forest, but Ren didn't seem to notice a thing,
so he followed, cautious, head low and ears going in all directions,
they would hear the smallest sound from 50 metres away,
he also put his nose in the air, if the wind was coming from the right direction,
he was able to smell blood or something else strong from maybe half a kilometer distance.

Ren's optical bloodline was deactivated and he wasn't able to sense the intruders on the other side of the plain. He would have kept walking towards the Dojo if he didn't notice that Ookamimaru stopped following. He turned to look at him with a confused face.
Is he shy of the sunlight or something, why isn't he moving?
Ren took a quick sweep of the forest with his eyes and didn't see anything right away and looked back at Ookamimaru.
"What's wrong??"
He shouted as he started to walk back towards the forest's line.

The wind was in Ookamimaru's back, so he didn't smell anything suspicious.
The only things he did smell where forest odors, like pine needles and wet ground. He even picked up the smell of the fire Ren made.
He looked around, but couldn't see anything abnormal, despite the dojo itself.
Still, the feeling was there, and if the moon had been a little more full,
he would have certainly turned around.
But it wasn't, and his human ignorance affected him.
"N'thing, I think" he said, while making his first steps out of the forest.
He was keeping his head low though, and his step looked more like sneeking than just walking. He still listened carefully, and watched all sides.

The leader changed the positions of his fingers to something akin to a hand seal. It was just a signal however. The men all started to climb the trees. The lone leader stood still while the dark figures fanned out through the canopy. There would be a minimal chakra presence now, and he was waiting to see if the students detected it.

Ookamimaru startled, he heard something.
He stood still again, closed his eyes and stopped breathing, to concentrate fully on the hearing.
He isn't imagining it, he hears moving branches.
He opened his eyes.
The sound came from the trees on the other side.
"Err, Ren?"
the sound wasn't caused by an animal, his instict tells him there is danger.
And now he heard something, he decided to fully trust on it,
and he put a step backwards again.

"Why are you--"
Ren was confused. Even though he only knew Ookamimaru for a short amount of time, the person was acting stranger than before. Taking steps back from something was a strange act by anyone.
Ren turned around and activated his optical bloodline.
Byakugan!
The veins around his eyes were clearly visible again as they were strained. There were people moving in the trees and someone else was standing on the ground across the field.
"...Someone's over there."
He said to himself and Ookamimaru.

Kansou crossed his arms. A pistol with a silencer lay at his hip and a katana on his back. The rest of the soldiers were moving farther and farther apart from each other. His mechanical eye mirrored Ren's gaze.
"Should we use them as bait to attract the big one?"
"Negative...I want to see what they do.."
"Roger.."
The voice trailed off from the commpiece in his ear.

The earth rumbled a bit, as a large mouth formed near the feet of this so called Kansou.
"What."
It said.

Kansou's teeth flashed in a grin underneath the cloth as the mound shadowed his face. He reached with his right hand for the katana, sliding it slowly out as he spoke.
"You going to bring any students into this?"
He spoke as much for his team as for himself. Five of the twelve soldiers aimed their rifles at Ren and Ookaminaru.

"Nope. Whaddaya want with them anyway?"
Whether his soldiers were in the trees or on the ground, Kaimen could make quick work of them regardless. He just needed to be provoked.

Kansou buried the fear within himself as soon as the katana came to rest at his side.
"I'll tell you. If you stop hiding like a badger."
