((From another Naruto guild that I'm in, because I want to be the very best (like no one ever was.))
The sound of hooves on dirt came from a distance, growing slowly louder as carriage pulled up with a lead of four horses and five guards. Each guard was mounted on his own horse, separate from the carriage with the exception of one who sat beside the driver. The carriage stopped and the guard got down and opened the door.
"Sir, your supposed to be laying low. I can't let you put yourself in danger like this." Hiroko's eyes, hidden behind a skin tight mask stared at the guard as he backed down. When the man spoke his voice seemed to echo in a whispered voice from all directions.
"Stay here, one of you can loan your horse to these leaf shinobi and I will handle the rest." Nothing about the man seemed to say shinobi, in fact he appeared to be a noble judging from his garb, but that was exactly what he was going for.
"Excuse me sir, but I believe these shinobi stopped you for a reason, why don't you play nice and die like a good criminal should." He removed his jacket, revealing a sword and some small armor pieces, perhaps the man was a wealthy samurai,
"Otherwise I myself would be happy to complete what those two had started." He inched the sword from its hilt with his thumb as a sudden rush of electric chakra filled the air,
"Though I am rather interested in knowing what has the hidden leaf so riled up. Indulge me if you would." Hiroko stood fast, awaiting even a sudden twitch from the enemy as an excuse to draw his sword. The shinobi had always boasted about his speed, wether it be his jutsu speed, running speed, or the speed at which he could draw his blade, but if he was to flashy Hiroko might blow his cover, so that meant no demon chakra in this fight.
Deep within the sanctum of his mind Rokubi mourned sorrowfully at the fact that he wouldn't get to help, but acknowledged the reasons as to why and thus stayed quiet.
The man issued forth no response, quietly smiling as he looked up at the disguised Otokage. Then the unknown ninja drew his blade and rushed Hiroko.
Hiroko drew his blade so quickly some would swear it had been out the whole time. The blade quickly blocked the rogue shinobi as an electric char ran through his blade and up the rogue's.
"If its going to be a battle of swords you may as well stand down." Hiroko's knee shot up into the man's gut and kicked outward to propel him away.
"Enough." The man was acting like a fool, didn't he know who he was fighting ... no, he didn't, that was the goal. Hiroko wanted nothing more than to blow his cover and reveal his identity to the insect before him, but resisted the urge. Instead he thought to end this fight quickly and dashed forward to the man's side while blazing through his hands signs, thrusting his hand into the man's chest as he initiated the lightning cutter combo.
The second hand went to the man's chin, then Hiroko swept out his feet and kicked him into the air before leaping and finishing the jutsu as he shouted,
"Lightning blade!" The man would bleed out, but movement would be minimal. Hiroko sheathed his sword and walked back towards the carriage.
"Tie him up, we'll deliver him to Konaha ourselves." He entered the carriage and awaited his arrival in the Village Hidden in the Leaves.
