A sharp hiss left the man’s lips as he had just cut down waves of turkeys and now there were waves of holiday cookies gone mad. “I guess… I. Did. Not. Make. Myself. Clear!” Once more there was an explosion of blood from the lake and the man himself as well. The copies of him made up of the viscous crimson liquid once more meet the forces of cookie men on the battlefield, and each one turning the blood rain into sharp falling shrapnel before bursting like a bomb and sending blood from them. Once more the waves from the violent eruption seemed to fuel the insanity of the tall man in the red jacket, before he strikes the ground with his hand once more sending out a wave of spikes. A wicked laugh leaving him as his heterochromatic eyes gaze up to the balcony that the two girls stood on… the recent unsealing of a tailed beast drew his senses. “Oh… something smells lovely over there..” Ronan licks some of the blood off his lips as his hand reaches for the sword on his back and taking a single step towards the girls hiding from his rain of blood.

A soft smile rested on the warrior’s face as she simply did not allow the flighty beauty to pull far from her while holding her hand. Her fingers interlace with Haru’s slender delicate digits as she whispers tenderly into her ear, “Then my dear, White Haired Demon. I shall be the Crimson Haired Blight…” As the alabaster beauty fanned between rage and fan girling over the fact that she, too, was cursed by having one of the beasts within. She pulls her closely, resting Haru’s head to her bust, “Ssshh~ Someone dangerous is still here.” She would understand the anger of suddenly just realizing the reason for her apparent mistreatment for her whole life. “While I can not relate to the abuse… and the secrecy behind it. I have been trained as solely a weapon to be used. They hope for me to hold the Tailed Beast in check enough to be used solely as a tool.” She knew the feeling of being used and an outcast. “Allow me to be your knight, Haru-chan.” Though before the young girl can reply the crimson haired warrior felt the gaze of a predator on the pair. A chill crawled down her spine, a fact that made her hate herself more, before she scoops up the smaller frame of the Hidden Wind ninja. She kicks from the ground and begins to move at her top speed as she tries to get away from that large, imposing male, but out of the blood soaked Hidden Rain as well. “Do you have anywhere special you want to go? Preferably somewhere rather hidden from prying eyes?”

XXXShe grit her teeth a little as the other woman refused to release her hand. She felt slightly trapped and could feel her heart rate and breathing quickening. She didn't like feeling trapped and right now that was exactly how she was feeling. She squeaked and flushed as she was pulled into the woman's bust. She cursed being so tiny right now. Easy for people to do this exact thing. She frowned when she was reminded something dangerous was still there. Then she felt it. A stare of a dangerous predator directed her way. She shuddered a little as she frowned at the girl asking to be her knight. She could take care of herself. She had for so long already. 'Worry about her remarks later. You need to let her get you somewhere safe. You know where I'm thinking because you as well.' Saiken commented to her. Apparently he had felt the danger they could be in as well. Before she could say anything she was once again swept off her feet by the girl into a bridal carry. An undignified yelp escaped her as she clung onto her, making sure her hood was up tight so her hair didn't get stained. She closed her eyes for a moment, trying to decide if she really wanted to let the girl into her safe space. That place had been her only solace for so many years now and the only thing she had claim to that was truly hers and nobody could take from her. But if so far Saiken seemed not concerned about her then she would just have to follow his instincts. Afterall this other girl had one of Saikens brothers or sisters inside of her. Taking a deep breath, she decided that she would trust her for now. "Back in my village. I have a home away from everyone. Nobody knows where it is." She sighed as she allowed herself to be carried. She didn't want to give away her only solace, but perhaps she could trust Akane since she had helped awaken her power. Not only that, she was actively trying to protect her still. She knew she probably needed her help in awakening her beast more as well. She could very well be the source of her becoming more powerful and connected to Saiken. She still would remain cautious of just how much trust she showed her. She was still a stranger and not one she had known for very long either. She closed her eyes, trying to calm herself as she felt the haze around her and all the particles as well. If she needed, she could call up a shield in a moments notice or any other manner of creation of her choosing. The crystals that clung to her bones to strengthen herself. She could even feel something trying to start from Saiken but she wasn't connected enough to him yet for him to help lend her power. She felt he was willing. Trusting of her in a way that was strange given that he had been stuck inside of her, so silent and unable to talk or anything up until now. Perhaps he also realized she had no control over the situation, and she had suffered so much abuse because of it. That would be a conversation for another time. Perhaps Akane could help her figure out how she could go see and talk to Saiken easier. She remembered reading something about it, but couldn't seem to recall the exact method or what she was supposed to do to figure that exact thing out. Letting out a deep sigh, she crossed her arms and allowed herself to be carried off by Akane to her village, still a little grumpy about giving up her only safe place. [Exit]
It would appear that the beast’s prey had managed to escape due to these cookies attacking this village. The man snarled as he snaps and another massive wave of blood clones erupt from the lake behind him. The heavy, thick, drops of crimson liquid practically dyes his hair the same color as it rains from the sky. The newest waves of these cookies appeared to be undercooked and bloated, not that the tall male cared of the condition of the baked army. The multiple blood clones rush out as they repeat his tactic that has worked so well already. Each using a blood jutsu and then exploding, which would in turn kill another two cookies as they all exploded from the attacks. The reaction was interesting, and it helped clear out the village from the remaining cookies. His green eye glanced up to where the two girls once stood. “I did always prefer the hunt.” The blood slowing returning to water and slowly washing away the viscous liquid that clung to the buildings and ground. The heel of his feet digging into the cobblestone as he walked with a heavy step. A rather serious gaze crossed his face as the male missing ninja began to whistle a soft, dark tune.

It's nice to be back in Hidden Ra- Huh?" Sevan says aloud while she slowly strolls into the village of Hidden Rain, her red orange eyes slowly scanning over the now blood soaked village where it was originally one of water and rain. Sevan rolled her shoulders slightly and continued her travels into the village with the new found dedication to figure out who had caused this newly blood soaked village. It was certainly something that peaked her interest seeing as it was an obvious act of war or something similar. There had been a good chunk of invasions going on recently after all, maybe it just had something to do with all that and there was a Hidden Blood shinobi floating around here somewhere with a debt for the village or something. Sevan chuckles a little to herself as she casually strolls along the roads of the village without slowing for any reason. Most of the villagers were still hidden away or dead, so it was not like the village was ultra busy or anything. She frowned slightly when turning a corner and coming across a shinobi who had obviously been defending the village and had now turned his attention upon the new shinobi with the fancy 'I abandoned my village' flag. Drawing one of the revolvers from her waist, she spins the weapon around her finger and then raises it to point directly at the head of the shinobi that had spotted her, pulling her finger casually against the trigger and with the sharp bang of the gun going off, she dropped the male shinobi before her before he could even grab for his own weapon at his side. She sighed and took a step forwards, running her free hand through his pockets for a moment and retrieving anything that he had that would be valuable, before returning to her current task at hand.
The air filled with the sound of the firearm going out, ringing through the mostly empty streets as the unknown woman shot a random male in the head. As this man fell limp on the ground, an uneasy feeling filled the air, even as the armed woman began to loot the corpse. Leaning against one of the walls was a large, imposing male wearing a red jacket. "That was rather heartless, but I approve of it..." He kicked off the wall as he began his way towards her, "I wanted to see how long it took for someone to end him for claiming 'my' work." The large man grinned as he slides his left hand through his wild silvery hair. "Name is Ronan... of the Akatsuki. I could use someone of such cold calculating." He slides a box from a pocket in the jacket, "I happen to have some seats in my organization... if you think you can use that power." His voice was silken smooth, but with just enough bite and venom to show he was not a pushover, and that he might be hiding power just from sight.

Red orange eyes turning to look backwards at the male that was speaking to her. Akatsuki huh? A well known organization that should have a rather excellent backing all together. She slowly nodded her head at his words and reholstered the revolver into it's designated holster before turning to look directly at this male that was speaking to her. "I am certainly willing to obtain additional power, my previous connections had all but fallen through, so this would be pleasant meeting that we are having right now." She says before raising a hand to adjust the military styled black coat she wore and then returning her attention back onto this male before her once again. "I am Sevan Kailash, formerly of Federation's Hidden Wind. So who are you?" She says finally before awaiting the male to give her some information about himself.
Far from the village proper, a figure clad in a black cloak dismounted his motorcycle, whispering a command to the machine as he left it in a patch on trees, far from the eyes and ears of the village. He began to approach on foot, tightening a pair of heavy leather gauntlets as he walked, as if preparing to enter combat, despite his multiple weapons remaining housed in their sheaths.
As he approached his destination, he began to sense the presence of the Black Beast, Ronan. This would perhaps complicate his business. Or perhaps it was an opportunity. Only time would tell. The Lord of Death did not let this development sway him in his plans. Sevan Kailash was in possession of the Aspect of War. A kindred spirit. It was no easy task to obtain such a boon. He had been aware of her exploits long before her acquisition of this title, of course. She had long been gaining power, dealing with various people of various dispositions, all the while making herself more powerful. More influential.
While her methods were perhaps less than honorable, there was no denying that she possessed a certain cunning that he would need for his own plans. The Horseman (or Horsewoman) of War was someone he would require if his plans were to be actualized. That another horseman had been located so soon was a welcome surprise. He intended to make good on it.
Alyx made his way through seldom-trod paths towards the village, even his stony disposition threatening to waver in the presence of the Black King, the oppressive force registering like a heavy weight on his senses, unaccustomed to the presence of such a force.
Despite this forceful recognition of power, no sign of intimidation showed in Alyx’s eyes, winced in determination as he approached the cobbled streets of the village, the flickering lantern light, nearly drowned out by the downpour of rain.
He approached the pair without pretense or trick, coming as he was, the rain that plagued this miserable village dripping off of his small body. Behind his mask, he did not smile or grimace, his eyes steeled in a scanning, calculating way as he looked over the pair, Sevan and Ronan, Horseman of War and Black Beast-King. There was no intimidation in his lifeless eyes as he looked upon the pair, approaching to a dozen yards or so before stopping, hands clasping behind his back in a somewhat tense at-ease posture, eyes darting between the pair, their weapons, the area, and back to their own eyes, resting perhaps too long on each in turn, just long enough to cause discomfort before moving on to the other.
”I head heard rumor that the Black Beast was making his mark on the world once more, but to find him and the Horseman of War… that is lucky indeed. Or does it portend disaster…?”. A small chuckle escaped his lips from behind his mask.
”Time will tell.”
He stepped forward a few feet.
”In either case, my goals are unchanged. I have come to parlay with the Horseman of War, and so it seems, the Black Beast, and here you are, both.”
He did not mention the elephant in the room. Sevan Kailash was a fugitive. A Missing-Nin. By law, he should slay her where she stood. Despite this knowledge, no doubt obvious to both of them, his presentation was nothing but cordial. Her loyalties mattered little to him at this point.
She was a woman of great intelligence and a self-preserving nature. He knew this. It was this quality that would make her such an effective horseman, a powerful ally. That she would not keep loyalty to an organization like the Federation in its current state was of no surprise. She undoubtedly had her reasons for this disloyalty. He would learn them, and not repeat them. The New Federation would not repeat the mistakes of the old.
Alyx knew less of the Black Beast, Ronan. His history was skewed with legend and myth, so muddled that it was hard to tell the story from the truth. In any case, one who would inspire such fear was someone Alyx had not expected to meet here, but was receptive to. He could be useful, too, in his own way. Raw power had its uses.
”My name is Alyxandr, Senator of the Hidden Soul, and one possessing a great and terrible destiny. I have come with an offer of alliance in the dark times to come.” Alyx cut straight to the point, wasting none of their valuable time.
”Shall I continue?”

It seems that he had appeared to the female Kailash at the right time, "I see... well I do offer you a power if you can take it. It will also put a mark on your head that others will try to collect." His fingers tenderly tracing over one of the rings in the box, before drawing it from its resting place, "I assume you have heard of the Akatsuki?" Ronan flicked the ring into air before catching it as his heterochromatic stare into the woman's eyes as she introduces herself as a former member of a Federation village, while asking for an introduction from himself as well. Though before he can speak another approach... a powerful figure enters the fray one speaking of the Black Beast, and the Horseman of War.. which most have meant he was in the presence of the Horseman now. A wicked grin as this new member has already introduced him, "That cat is out of the bag... I am the Black Beast. Leader of the new Akatsuki... getting ready to set the world a blaze." The man turns to Alyx after his introduction as a Senator from the Federation of Villages. "This is interesting. A Senator of Federation, a rouge ninja from Hidden Wind, and the leader of the Akatsuki. I have not figured I would find myself in such a situation so soon." An amused laugh follows the statement as his gaze falls onto the Kailash once again, "So 'War' is it? You left that part out.. and the power I sensed in you is the same as the Senator, so I take it... Alyx himself here is also a Horseman. Am I wrong, Sir Senator?"

The proposed ring immediately catching her attention as an eyebrow would slowly rise while taking in all the information that was being passed around so easily. "Ah. Yeah, I suppose I also hold that title.. Although I probably held it well before I got any of the power of the actual Horseman." She says, casually rolling her shoulders into a shrug before taking the moment to answer Ronan's offer. Naturally he had already given his name, but she was hoping a repeat of the question would have brought any additional information to light. She hadn't been expecting a third party to arrive and give both the same amount, and perhaps a tad bit more information than the man himself had offered up. "I will graciously take a seat in there, if that's what you're offering. Having a strong group is always a good way to keep yourself both alive and in top shape." She responds, before turning her attention onto the Senator that had strolled up. It was a good possibility that the male was up to something, seeing as he was in a position of power within her former village's alliance. Sevan casually rested a hand at her hip, just above the holster of her revolver while listening to what the two of them had to say to and about each other. "Do continue." She would say after a pause, while keeping an eye on this darkly dressed male that Ronan claimed to be another of the Horseman, though she could only speculate which one.
