Normally when Hฤซryu walked back down the streets of the housing district he was going home. However, today was no normal day. On his quest to becone stronger, he needed to hunt down a man known as Belamos Karna, in the hopes of getting a lesson from the acclaimed hero. As Hฤซryu walked diwn the stone path, he would stop to ask a few passersby if they knew where the man's house was. The first few attempts yielded no results, but eventually an elderly woman had an answer for him. At the far end of the massive cave, Belamos owned a mansion. Without wasting a moment, Hฤซryu continued toward his destination.
Coming upon the iron gates that surrounded the huge mansions property, Hฤซryu could make out two guards at the front gate with spears. As he drew nearer, Hฤซryu lifted an arm lazily as if to say hello.
"Hello, gentlemen. Is this Belamos Karna's place?" Hฤซryu asked the men flatly.
"It is indeed the home of our master, Belamos. Unfortunately, you've just missed him. He just left the village." the chubby guard replied.
"Hmm. Do you know where he went?" Hฤซryu asked, raising a hand to his chin.
"No idea. He doesn't tell us much other than that he's leaving. Try the village gates, the guards up there might know where he went." the other guard chimed in, spitting out something.
With a small bow, Hฤซryu spun on his heel and began heading back the way he came. Hฤซryu was a little annoyed that he had left the village, but at least he could figure out where he was heading. Picking up a jog, Hฤซryu began heading for the mouth of the cave, and to the front door of the village itself.
Everything had seemed to be going fine for the band of evacuators and evacuees. That was until reaching a point where the Rokubi became clearly visible. One child stood awestruck as the rest of the group moved forward. Hopefully, there would be someone to address and realize the sudden missing individual from the line. Whether it be a sensor picking up there was one less in the group or a raven black haired girl who had promised to watch the rear.
Suddenly the ground would shake and tremble. Something was about to happen. The teacher trying to calm the children down their earlier confidence began to fade. [3] children began using this chaos to deviate from the group, either confused, panicked, or ignorant thinking they'd be better off going in another direction. Noticing them leaving, however, may have proved difficult as indeed that shake was foreboding of something that in that moment was about to happen.
A gigantic burst of chakra exploded outward from the Rokubi from its location. Homes and the like had been uplifted. A testament to its power despite the evacuating group's distance these dangerous debris were heading in none other than THEIR DIRECTION. Simultaneously during the time the earlier [3] deviated from the group the main group was under threat. The threat of quite literally a house about to fall on them from the skies above...but that wasn't all, one of the [3] children who ran off, now crying, a steel beam was poised to fly right through her.
And to make matter all the worse. The group was fit to scatter again in fear of well a house falling on them. Even if it didn't and there were fully capable ninja around it would take a firm and commanding presence to try and keep the group together. Even the teacher was, as cruel as it sounded, debating abandoning the children for their own sake. A multitude of things happening all at once. The question was how would the venturing group process and approach the problem to keep everyone safe and reassured.
[A-ranked House Falling on Main Group] [B-ranked Steel Beam on a collision course with [1] of the [3] kids that split up.]
Vivian was walking along the group, paying close attention to the fight that was happening at the gates. There was a lot of chakra being tossed around from what she could tell. For a moment she turned around. "Stay with the group." Vivian would say to the child who started to fall behind because they were enamored with the creature. However, suddenly a large blast occurred from the gates. The woman could feel the debris from the coming, and see it. "Umm. Kagerou there's a house coming. The woman would say as the debris came into view for everyone. Then the chaos began to ensue. "Stop the house." Vivian saw the crying child about to be hit by the steel beam and immediately shunshin from her position to in front of the child. The woman then quickly moved her arm in a circular fashion to hit the steel beam and force it to plant itself in the ground in front of her. Once the steel beam was stopped she turned around and fiercely hugged the child. "Are you okay?" The woman asked as she pulled back, looking at the child in the eyes.
Taking up the rear with the black haired girl, Mugen would be the last to see the Rokubi on the horizon. "Woah." he murmured to himself, half stunned. His neon eyes would dart towards the children who began to lose their cool and scatter. Vivian seemed to be atop of the incident. As she moved to them, the steel beam that would collapse would be on path for the woman. With the simple use of her arm she would defend the child, embracing them. That action would have to go unnoticed by Mugen who was now intently focused on the incoming residency that was falling upon them.
Mugen moved before the children, placing himself in between them and the direction the house was falling from. He would have a wide stance with his knees bent as he took his open palms at his sides and raised them upward towards the home. From the earth, two pillars would emerge from the ground that were several feet thick, the two pillars would branch off into thick trees that would curve around the group, defending them from the house as the smaller branches shielded them from small falling debris that would be included. Mugen panted, it was a heavy amount of chakra to spend for him and his limited chakra pool. He turned back, smiling and giving the children a thumbs up in a goofy manner. " Everyone okay?"
[ Wood Creation | B Rank x 2 ] Created two trees that intertwined and protected the class from the house.
How annoying.. The thought coming from the deepest depths of Freya, the Uchiha smiled to all the boys and girls as she brought up the rare. Hurdling the children along the demon came into sight in the distance. Emerald hues taking in the grotesque slug like demon beast Freya had to fight the urge to cringe. She wasn't a fan of slug like creatures. Hate was a strong word but it wouldn't be incorrect. Conflicted internally, mostly with disgusted Freya kept her expression composed. Worry and concern her choice of veil.
Her body tensing to the sudden multiple impending dooms, like the other's Freya snapped to it. While Mugen moved in front the children the pig-tailed hair young woman moved the middle of them. "Everyone get down please!"Mustering up her voice Freya yelled out. Hand pressing against the ground inscriptions and sigils exploded outward against the earth, Expanding and expanding at a raid rate until it encompassed the group of children in it's circle radius. With the completion of the Fuuin seal, golden chains exploded from the outer edges and enclosed the group in a powerful protection barrier. The Uzumaki level fuuin seal only a secondary defense behind the main senju tree birthing defense. "Umm I think everyone is safe!"

With Vivian keeping her eyes out for the whole group, the older children watching out for the younger, and the academy teachers watching over the children, Kagerou had gravitated towards leading the line of academy students from the front, her calm steps leading the rest of the group in a timely manner that was neither rushed nor wasteful of time.
It was to be expected that not all would go smoothly. They turned a corner and then suddenly the Saiken could be seen, the buildings here lower than those prior. Kagerou immediately looked back at the rest of the group, making her first pause since the beginning of this trip. Though, because she was quick to wave the lead teacher to continue moving forwards, it would only stall the group for a tiny moment.
Well, it would have if the group wasn't stalled by something else, a particular explosion that rocked the very foundations of the earth they stood upon.
Vivian warned of a house falling down. In her peripherals, the woman could see the motherly figure going to one of the children that had strayed from the group. Meanwhile, Kagerou focused her interests on the houses falling down. Perhaps they should have made these buildings out of brick and then maybe they wouldn't have been blown down by the big, bad slug? The older children were setting up a defense to protect the others, and Kagerou would have loved to join, but she could see that two of the children were off doing their own things. One was running off in another direction, where more rubble was threatening to fall. Another, at the fringes of the group, stared blankly at the looming shadow of debris.
There wasn't much time, Kagerou's hands moved independently as they gave two different flicks of the wrists and nuances in their digits.
A Kamaitachi [ Cutting Whirlwind ] launched into the center of the building section that threatened to fall on the main group, slashing and blowing through the dense wood not to destroy it but to weaken and change the trajectory of its landing so that it was more likely break upon and then slide harmlessly around the barriers, lowering the risk of the students trapped beneath their defenses.
The child running away would be frightened into stillness as Kageoru's Ryลซen Hลka no Jutsu [ Dragon Flame Release Song Technique ] blocked off his foolhardy escape and then proceeded to entwine around him, creating an unfortunately toasty but reliably defense against the falling house, the swift streams of fire generating a wind that deflected the heavy weight while doing what flames do and burning whatever wood was unfortunate enough to fall into it. Not the most pleasant defense, but Kagerou had her hands full.
At the moment, quite literally. Her third maneuver was to Kyoushu no Tokkan [ Assassinโs Rush ] the gawking child. That is, use it to launch herself towards the child, who she enveloped in her arms and rolled around as they made contact, protecting him from the impact of the wooden beams, which had already begun making touchdown on the ground and Kagerou, and the impact of the landing. With the speed of Assassin's Rush, Kagerou cleared through the wreckage, but not without some injuries, both from pieces that fell on her and falling into pieces scattered about haphazardly.
Assuming she didn't see more trouble that needed her attention, the first thing Kagerou would do, of course, would be to smile and ask the child in her arms, "Are you alright?". Similarly, the dragons of fire encircling the running academy student would be dismissed.

Would it be enough one could wonder? The crying child in Vivian's care was proceeding to get snot on her clothes. "I'm...s...showwy I shouldn't have runned miss vivvy. I wash shooo scawed!" Twas good he wasn't around any of his friends and fellow students it was likely that he'd never live down this moment as the gentlewoman's clothing was now being made sodden. A reminder of either never wanting or wanting kids. Seeing as despite the gross look of his face there was still an air of cute to be found. Not to mention kid had some strength to him as evidenced in the returning of his hug to Vivian which was likely do impart to one-half adrenaline the other half fear. Should she head back to the pack the kid would hold on to the lapels of her clothing as you'd see from someone holding a bridal gown, making sure he wouldn't get lost again.
When it came to the rampant home. Kagerou had succeeded in weakening its foundation. The wood splintered, it remained intact but she had succeeded in what she intended on doing. The home would crash into the two arisen wooden trees. Rather than collapse inward it spread in four differing directions. Making it so the brunt of debris and broken glass would either be dispersed by Freya's barrier or land away from the group. Hadn't it been weakened the two pillars showed visible signs that they were about to break. The home would have been defended against but it may have spelled a whole new mess if they fell down as well. It was a wise decision made by Kagerou to weaken it first to minimize any collateral risk. Whether or not that was intentional, however, would only be known to her unless it was made known.
Of course, there was another threat than Mugen would have to face. One not entirely life-threatening. Well no in the traditional sense at least. One of the young girls pulled down Mugen's thumbs up arm grabbing him possessively. She couldn't have been more than nine. "You're my boyfriend." she would say in which would be fought against with "No fair, you can't just say he's your boyfriend. He's my boyfriend plus I'm older!" Older, of course, was maybe by a year at most as Mugen's other arm would start getting pulled.
Freya as her technique started to disperse itself where she could take a breather would find another girl in the group tugging her clothes. "Big sis." Maybe about a year or two younger than the girls who were assaulting the poor Senju. "I wanna be like you. Show how to do that thing big sis." Of course there was no time to be teaching kiddos in this kind of environment. That was assuming for any reason Freya would 'want' to teach the kid anything. Clearly, there was some bad news to break it to the munchkin because she wasn't of any level ready for the technique clearly.
The kid of whom Kagerou apprehended that was gawking earlier when being held...it wasn't to be certain whether it was childlike innocence or intentional. Kagerou wasn't the sensor after all. He had begun rubbing his face in Kagerou's chest. Something said he was definitely 'all right' after all kids could get away with stuff like this. Begged the question who'd teach him to take advantage of his youth. Of course that would shatter by a "Waaaaaaaaa" as the dragons of fire which had impeeded the other rascal when it dispersed hadn't dispersed soon enough. Kids were dumb sometimes. "It huuuuurts!" he'd exclaim as it seemed the kid had gotten himself burnt, likely from 'touching fire'. Something to consider, in the future, fire may prove efficient in keeping the typical individual at bay but can prove inefficient when against child like curiosity.
Out of the entire ordeal, there were no casualties and no injuries aside from a single burn on the palm of their hand. Who would later seek the aid of whoever offered it first. Although if not Kagerou herself. They'd likely be a little sour towards her...despite how cool the flames were. The party was free now to proceed to the evacuation location, and hopefully quickly before something like this happened again.
"It's okay little one. All that matters is your safe now. Just stick with me, okay? We all get scared sometimes. Even I'm a little scared." The woman would say to the child in a reassuring voice as she gently wiped away the child's tears with her sleeve. Vivian didn't care about the snot or anything like that as she had seen much worse on the battle field. The child was safe and that truly was really all that mattered at the moment. Once Vivian was done speaking and wiping the kids face, she stood up and started walking back to the group. She noticed how the child held onto her and allowed it to happen. If it made him feel more safe than that was fine with her.
Vivian had to stifle a laugh as she came back, seeing the two children fighting over Mugen and the other child admiring Freya. It seemed everything was alright. That was until she heard the distant crying of a child. Her eyes shifted towards the location of the child and started to walk that away. Vivian would approach him, the other child still in tow. "Here let me see sweetie." Vivian would say as she knelt down in front of him, holding out her hands for him to place his into. "Hmm burned your self pretty bad." Vivian turned her head slightly to look over at Kagerou. "Are any of the academy teachers proficient in medical jutsu?" The woman asked, her turn to ask an ironic question. Not that she knew Kagerou was a medic. It would be just every so slightly funny that Vivian had to ask almost the same question that was asked to her not too long ago.
No ******** off brat! "Once we get back to safety I'll show you fuuin even you can uses~" Accompanied with a smile Freya patted the little girl's head. Why was this demon beast even here? The mistress would need to know about this. Eyes becoming sharp she'd look off into the distance at the tailed beast. Die.
Pushing up her glasses to hide her momentary glare at the beast Freya's orbs turned to the other children revealing a smiling friendly face."Okay everyone we need to keep moving now~" Spoken in a upbeat attitude the pig-tailed girl holstered the huge sword on her back once more. "Hold hands with each other so no one gets lost~ Go on now." Making a gesture of her holding hands with herself she'd encouraged the children to do so with each other.

The worst had passed, Mugen sighed with a heavy sense of accomplishment and relief as the wooden creations he had manifested creaked and struggled but endued with the assistance of the rest of the group. His hands at his sides, he would feel a sudden tug. The academy student girls were more than ready to claim their savior as their own! As the first one laid claim to his heart, he laughed scratching the back of his head with his free arm. " Afraid we'll have to wait until you're all grown up for anything like tha-" His hand was snatched mid sentence by a more agressive girl who demanded the first relinquish her claim. "oro?!" He said, surprised by the action as he became nothing more than a child's rag doll. After several moments of their antics he freed himself, hiding beside the more senior members of the squadron. " Ready to move on your mark" he said, attempting to pretend he hadn't just been slightly violated.
Kagerou's eyes glittered in amusement, connecting this question with one she asked not too long ago. "Oh, you don't have to find one seeing as you already have," Kagerou playfully echoed Vivian's words.
Seeming not to mind the awfully clingy child she held, Kagerou trotted over to where Vivian consoled the child with the burn. It didn't look too bad, but the child had grazed who knows how much with an A-rank attack. Not to mention, she wanted to quickly calm this one down so that he could go and join the rest that were slowly coming together under Freya's and the academy's teachers guidance.
Kagerou gently set down the clutchy child and weaved some hand signs. Her chakra condensed into a ball of B-rank healing energy around her right hand, and ever so gently, she clasped the child's burned hand between her own, the right hand covering the top of the burn. When her hand released the child's the wound had healed.
By this point, Mugen had also come to Kagerou and Vivian to seek shelter from perhaps the scariest threat of them all, enamoured girls. "My, my~" Kagerou whistled lightly and winked, but as much as she wanted to lighten the mood, the group really needed to keep going, "Then, if Mr. Handsome doesn't mind, could he take the lead with Ms. Class Prez? The kids will definitely keep their eyes on you two, now. Our destination remains the same."
As for Vivan and herself, Kagerou nodded at the sensor, "That was one attack, let's hope that the demon can't make another big one before we make it to safety, but just in case, let's keep our guard up while we take the rear." Her voice had lost its playful touch, but she smiled calmly as ever. Everyone was safe, Kagerou had done a head count earlier with a glance around the area. For now, everything was going smoothly, and as the others left, Kagerou would leave, too. [3/4 that one mission]

Vivian couldn't help but, laugh slightly at the answer the woman provided for her. She had certainly not seen that coming but, she was glad that the woman was a medic. Vivian moved away from the child to allow Kagerou to deal with the child's injuries, waiting for the woman to be finished. She watched as Mugen made his way over to the group to hide from the small children who wished him to be their boyfriend. Vivian smiled softly, and followed Kagerou to the next location, keeping track of where the demon was. "I'm not sure if we'll have to worry about that. After the last attack it's seems to be retreating away from the village." Vivian would report to the group. Even now the demon would be visually gone. However, she would continue to keep walking with a sense of urgency.
Most of the children linking hands Freya moved with the group at the rear. Emerald hues glancing about between the older shinobi, Freya made sure she was on high alert."Don't worry! Everyone is going to be safe~" Spoken with an enthusiastic tone. The ravened ensured the children as they continued on thee way. .

__ Kenshin arrived in the residential area with the scroll in hand. He had been running all over the village placing the roads at various points. He paid careful attention to the instructions to ensure that he was assembling the lightning roads properly. When he arrived in the residential district he walked past the houses toward the precise coordinates. The police captain installed the lightning rod outside of the living areas and set up caution tape to warn civilians against approaching it.

It was good on the captain to set up a cautionary line. Shortly after the device was placed a large lightning bolt seemed to descend from the sky striking it. Beneath Kenshin the ground trembled. With his Byakugan he could see waves of vein-like chakra shooting through the earth beneath houses and homes. The instructions said this would happen but perhaps his lack of experience with technology or any biases would produce some skepticism. The people panicked believing themselves under attack briefly. Although as quickly as this occurred it ended. So they calmed. No damages to the surroundings but had anyone gotten close they'd have likely been injured. Good on the captain to have made a perimeter as stated before. That was one, nine more to go. Although perhaps not all of them would be placed so smoothly. {Calms Before the Storm Bx1 Complete}
