Selina held onto her emotions for Kenshin's response. She was positive that if he could confirm her to be the true target then her fears were for naught. However, when Kojiro bolted by her, her anxiety took the best of her. Selina's hands formed handseals faster than the eye could manage, and her sensory third eye awoken. It easily scanned past the APD and targeted her home, as well as the entire village of Arashigakure. As it did, however, her sister's chakra was stripped of the entire area. No traces of it existed at the house, in the marketplace, anywhere. She fell to her knees, an inhuman screech echoing out of her body. All of that tension and nerves she felt from her failed mission to this sudden betrayal of logic hit her all at the same moment. The words of Kenshin and Ada were muffled, as though they were reverberating through the depth of the ocean. She felt this once before, on that horrible day her innocence of the world was taken from her. But this was something on a much deeper, primal level. She was overwhelmed with fear, with shame. She sobbed heavily into her hands.
And then she saw it.
Reality tugged Selina right back into her moment she sensed it, forcing her sobs to cease and her eyes to spring open. A chakra presence, masking its presence but was within the APD itself. A second presence of seemingly equal power resonated within Selina's home, and moved to answer the door as Kojiro moved closer to it. Both presence masked their chakra to nearly infinite abilities, but with her immense sensory training she was able to see through the cloaks. At the same time, as Zeshin moved to exit the room, he would suddenly be stopped by two higher ranking officers. They made no noise but simply moved into the door frame, blocking him. If Zeshin looked up, he would notice that the two guards were grinning. Not in a comical sense, however, no. These grins were forced and monstrous, like someone was forcing the muscles of the face to stretch themselves into a smile in the most agonizing way possible. Zeshin wouldn't be alone, however, as all of the APD officers were stopped in place. Not even Yaguri, who did not move from his order to make the second party, budged an inch. Reality started to fade from the area, as the entire place started to morph into the familiar game show arena that Kenshin so defiantly escaped from last time.
"So Kojiro can hold his own against me huh? Can you really afford to take that risk? You haven't exactly been right so far." A voice said from behind the repaired screen. Kenshin, Ada, X, Zeshin, and Selina would suddenly find the majority of their bloodlines sealed away as Officer Vala stepped forward. Only, as the three of them would watch him, her skin and outfit burned away, and Antioch's form, all seven feet of self-mutilated horror. He waved fervently at Kenshin, confident that the indestructible provisions he set up would ensure his Kenshy-poo didn't ruin the fun with some S++++ spamming. However, he blew a kiss to Ada, as well as threw her a wink. "For tonight's honorable mention, we have to give it up to Ada Kyuri! After all, if she did not set up her reverse summoning seal at the APD, or given us a few free bodies to watch the show with all of those lovely bodies for my wife and I to watch the fun with." As soon as he said this Yaguri flashed a large, sinister grin. His skin melted away and the familiar form of that puppeteer appeared. However, as soon as she revealed herself, she then disappeared, revealing herself to simply have been a shadow clone.
"In case the thought crossed your mind, yes the real Vala and Yaguri are fine. Better than fine actually! They have a couple more hours of surgery to go, but I promise that they're going to be singing my good name by the time their vocal chords can produce sound again." Antioch's sinister voice savored the agony his words would no doubt have on Ada. Now that he had fun digging the dagger into her back, it was time to see how delicate Kenshin's skin was. "And you. I practically spelled out that those two were red herrings and not worth chasing. But no! Arashi's greatest detective decided to go for a joy ride across country. You gave me so much time I actually was able to do the crossword section of today's puzzle! Some really tricky ones for today's news too, especially column 37." He said, holding up the news paper and showing the news. However, as the group looked at the paper, they would realize that it wasn't a crossword puzzle. Instead, on the front of the paper was Celene; the girl gagged and bound with tears streaming down her face. She was in an empty room which gave no clear indications of where she was. Antioch gave a sigh as he looked toward Zeshin.
"And bringing a kid into our love affair? Kenshin you know I'm into some kinky things, but *****? There are some bars not even I bend below." Antioch sighed and held his palm open toward Zeshin, revealing a mangekyo sharingan. Black flames surrounded the child, clearly meant to kill him before the kid even had a chance to reply. Selina panicked as the block on her bloodline prohibited her access to her summoning spirit. Desperate to make sure the boy came to no harm she formed spiritual bonds with everyone in the room, and then diluted the pain out of the Ameterasu to Kenshin and Ada, as well as herself. This would mitigate the damage until someone else could form a strategy to put out the flames.
_______________ ≎Out Of Context≎ So going forward, we are all going to post in the Black Cloud District. Ada's seal was tampered with to force everyone there, but through the use of genjutsu and the anxiety of the situation no one noticed. Reg, you also do not have access to Vala and Yaguri until you find them again. Also, unless someone has a plan to counter Amerterasu, everyone is going to suffer A B-ranked damage to their body. That will keep Zeshin from not taking the full brunt of it, but no one is going to feel good. ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
PassiveEffects: _☆ Invigorating Kaiser Armor Training | Rank B | Training ___○ The user's armor retains it's former effects. Now, the armor emits a crackling, bright, white hot chakra that appears like a thin aura around the user. The chakra causes mild burns on contact. In addition, the user gains a slight increase to strength and speed per rank of the armor. _☆ Bolstering Kaiser Armor Training | Rank A | Training ___○ This training adds to the previous effects of the Kaiser armor's technique. In addition to that, the target's armor now allows them to regenerate 10 stamina per rank of chakra applied to each technique while the armor is active. The user may not generate more stamina than their reserves may hold. _☆ Kaiser Armor Mastery | Rank S | Training ___○ The final stage of training for the Kaiser Armor. In addition to it's previous effects, the Kaiser armor now causes searing burns upon contact that blister due to the crackling chakra. Additionally, the user's strength and speed are increased mildly per rank of the armor instead of it's original slight. Taijutsu and bukijutsu techniques used while this armor is active create shock waves five feet in the direction of the attack per rank of the technique. _☆ ___○ _☆ ___○
SHIONxxxxxMORI This was the last job Shion wanted to do, the last job anyone would want to do. But, that was her job; do the jobs that no one wanted to do. She looked down at the notice on her desk, reading and rereading the list of names. Each pass only served to further compound her disbelief. Disbelief mixed with anger as she read the Kage's own son's name for what seemed like the hundredth time, and anger turned to hate as she read Takao's. That was one name she couldn't stand to see on this list... and it hurt, more than any wound she'd received in her countless battles -- it didn't hurt quite as badly as she was going to hurt him.
She wanted this to be a joke, to be one of Toso's moments of absurdity, but this was too real. So it's come to this, has it? A list of names and a list of orders; it may as well have been a list of bodies. Do not engage? Report your findings? Toso must have lost his mind in grief. Was he not aware of who he was sending? No. There would be no ten-man team, no recon parties. There would only be Shion, this list, and whatever she felt in that very moment.
▱▰▱Kenshin sat in his office behind his desk. He stared at the ceiling in reflection on the series of steps that he was about to take. He grabbed a pen and signed the bottom of his notice of resignation before picking up his phone. "Send lieutenant Kanzaki in here at his earliest availability." He commanded before placing the phone back down and inhaling. The newly-minted heir to the lightning imperial Hyuga needed to finalize transitioning out of leadership in the APD into his new role. Additionally, his engagement to Ada presented a violation of his code of conduct which necessitated his resignation. He waited for Kojiro to enter for him to present the news. Kenshin continuously repeated his speech in his thoughts as he knew that there was much to discuss.
Byakugan Status: • Inactive Tenseigan Status: • Inactive Human Sage Mode Status: • Inactive Status Effects: • None
Personal Attributes ▱▰▱ Piercing Accuracy | The clansman is more proficient than his fellow clan members at striking tenketsu. One's gentle fist application allows them to reduce 1.5 times the amount of chakra spent in a juken strike instead of 1.25. For example, if one spends 100 chakra on a gentle fist technique, the attack robs the target of 150 instead of the 125 normal clansmen would reduce. ▱▰▱ Purest Lineage | The clansman's thoroughbred lineage allows them access to the Byakugan without the use of a hand seal, chakra cost, or activation. In addition, should they unlock the Tenseigan, they may have 50% less reserves to maintain it than other clan members and may also activate the Tenseigan without the use of a hand seal, chakra cost, or activation. ▱▰▱ Physical Prowess | The Hyuga gains a [2] point increase in any stat after mastering stage 3 of the gentle fist and another [2] points after mastering stage 6 for a total of [4] rather than [2]. In addition, the Hyuga gains [3] custom slots to be used exclusively for the gentle fist style and [1] taijutsu style slot. ▱▰▱ Genetic Palette | With intensive genetic therapy and strong blood, this character is able to possess more than one transplant. This allows the character up to two transplants total, of any of the three categories. ▱▰▱ Thundering Justice | Lightning-based techniques used by the Hatake are granted a concussive blast in the form of a sonic boom upon impact.

In addition, deafness is applied upon impact for two posts. ▱▰▱ Tsunami of Justice | Kenshin gains access to the water element. ▱▰▱ Ionic Blade | The user's bukijutsu and basic combat weapon strikes may be made complex to add their lightning element to the attacks.

The Hatake's chidori raiton inflicts a tier of full-body paralysis that is equivalent to the technique's rank up to the second tier. This paralysis lasts for two posts per rank of the technique at a maximum of six posts. Applying Chidori chakra to the Juken consumes a second offensive activation. ▱▰▱ Storm Sage | Lightning techniques cast while in sage mode and when enhanced by nature chakra burn brighter and inflict a tier of blindness that is equivalent to the technique's rank. This blindness lasts for two posts per rank of the technique at a maximum of six posts. ▱▰▱ Stern Spirit | Reiken no Michi virtue states cost one rank less in stamina to activate and maintain. The stamina cost of the virtue states cannot be reduced beyond this. ▱▰▱ Raijin Drum | While in human sage mode, Kenshin is able to self-korabo one lightning technique, one wind technique, and one water technique into one three-times powerful truth-seeking orb.

Weapon Specs ▰ Weapon Name: Getsuruitō ▰ Weapon Type: Katana & Rapier [ Reiken Spirit Sword ] ▰ Weapon Size: 38 Inches Total | 30 Inch Blade | 8 Inch Hilt ▰ Style Categorization: Medium Sword ▰ Weapon Weight: 3 lbs ▰ Stat Increase: +2 Speed ▰ Elemental Affinity: Lightning ▰ Description: Getsuruitō (月涙刀, Moon Tear Sword) is a legendary sword that was reworked and merged with the standard-issue Kumogakure Police Department officer rapier commissioned to Kenshin Kosei named Purity. The original form of the sword is a steel and dark blue katana with a bronze crossguard and dragonhead handle. It also has a rapier form that was refined from Purity and is entirely constructed from steel with a dark blue handle and basket hilt. The katana and rapier forms are the same size and constructed of the same materials. Getsuruito was considered a legendary artifact by the people of Seizan as it was wielded by an ancient general. When the rusted blade was awarded by the locals to Kenshin Kosei he discovered that it had the unique ability to merge with and empower one other weapon. When the katana was reworked to its fullest potential it had the abilities of his own weapon in addition to incredible lightning abilities. ▰ Ability Summary: Righteous Sword of the Sentinel [ Senchineru no Seigi no Ken ] | Rank E | Bloodline | Spiritual All forms of Hyuuga techniques including the gentle fist can be used through the sword for the 10 posts that this technique is active. This means that strikes involving the blade cause physical damage including stab wounds as well as seal tenketsu points and any other effects of the technique used through the sword. An additional 5 chakra can be applied to the blade to prevent it from causing physical damage from thrusting but instead seal tenketsu points and inflict pain similar to a stab wound in the area struck but slashing attacks can still cause damage. Half the resource cost of techniques from the rapier style of Sen Gekiretsu Nagareboshi applied allows the technique to carry the tenketsu sealing effects of a same-rank palm strike such as a B-Rank carrying 64 Palms effects. Getsuruito must be in its rapier form to use this ability and 5 chakra can be spent upon activation of this technique to transform it as such. The Righteous Sword of the Sentinel technique has a 10 post duration before necessitating re-activation and costs an E-Rank amount of chakra. The initial activation of this technique consumes an action but all subsidiary abilities of the technique do not.
Smiting Blade of the Night Watch [ Naitō Otchi no Sumittinguburēdo ] | Rank X | Bukijutsu [ Lightning ] | Spiritual When this technique is activated it crackles violently with night blue lightning for the entire duration. The electricity from the blade also forms bolts of lightning over the body of the user and appears to supercharge them. Whenever the blade is swung or thrust over the duration the user can fire a concentrated blast of ten bolts of lightning to accompany the strike equal to the rank applied but for only half the cost to initiate the technique. Hatake, Raiu, and Sage enhanced lightning can pass through the blade and apply to these lightning bolts. The bolts cause a thunderously deafening sonic boom and can inflict tier 2 burns upon direct contact with the lightning. Additionally, these lightning bolts can be freely applied to all complex bukijutsu for no action cost to smite enemies. The only action cost is when the technique is activated and all subsidiary abilities of the technique do not consume actions and only chakra. This ability can be used in both forms of Getsuruito.
Draconic Sabre of Moon Sundering [ Getsu Sandaringu no Dorakonikku Seibā ] | Rank X | Bukijutsu [ Lightning ] | Complex This is the original ability of the ancient Getsuruito blade and thus requires the original katana form. 5 chakra can be spent to transform the blade to its original form upon activation of this technique. Crackling and thunderous dark blue lightning can be applied to the katana's edge at any rank and the same lightning can form a dragon head formed from electricity over the body of the user for 10 posts. This allows all spiritual techniques the sword comes into contact with to be slashed through and even cut in half at the same rank despite the complex nature of the technique. For half of the original cost to activate the technique a same-rank spiritual electrical energy slash can be sent out from the slash of the blade. This same cost can be applied to any complex bukijutsu to achieve the same effect. The original 10 post activation of this ability consumes an action but all subsidiary abilities do not.

Kojiro entered the APD building several hours after the encounter with Antioch's henchmen, several hours after he had been forced to beat upon Ada's trusted guard, sever their limbs and fight his way to Celene's cryptic location. His face was heavy with exhaustion from the events. He slumped over at his desk, arms folded on it's oak surface as he took note of the records from Celene's interrogation. He would open the interview file with his right hand just as a rapping of the glass pane door echoed out. His sleepy glance upward to reveal a red haired secretary whom he'd seen before several times. Something seemed off about the girl today, as though she was not feeling quite herself.
"Mi-mista Kanzaki. The Cap'n wants to see you in his office." Kojiro shook off the deja-vu feelings he got when seeing the woman. He pushed himself up, closing the file before him and moving around the desk to the door. The woman stepped to the side, outside the office as Kojiro shut the door behind him. " Thank you, Miss Minata" he said, locking the door. With that he would move with purpose behind his steps towards Captain Kosei's office just down the hall. He would knock lightly, announcing his entry. " Sir, you needed to see me?" he asked as he closed the door behind him, sitting across from Kenshin at his desk.

▱▰▱When Kojiro entered and took his seat Kenshin would waste no time in getting to business. "Ada and I are engaged to be married. Because she's my subordinate I'm in violation of the code of conduct and must resign as the captain of the APD. She will resign after I do and this leaves you as the highest-ranking officer in the line of succession for the position of captain. I know this is unexpected, but the rank is available to you if you accept it." He spoke plainly to the essence of the matter. He waited for several seconds for the information to be processed before he continued with context. "My father was the heir to the imperial lightning Hyuga but was de-legitimized by his father when he went rogue. As you know, I wasn't legitimate by extension and that's why my last name was Kosei for so many years. After my uncle and cousins died fighting Kogarashi, my grandfather legitimized me as Kenshin Hyuga and I am to become his successor. Ada's family are in the nobility and they besieged her with many unsatisfying suitors. I offered to become a suitor and she chose me. We plan on marrying and leading the Hyuga clan in the Land of Lightning." Kenshin recognized that what he was describing might be convoluted but did his best to explain all of the intricacies clearly. Kenshin's focus intensified on Kojiro as he finished the background information. "We're in love and we believe that our new duties as nobles will allow us to administer justly in the empire. I'll also continue to be a sannin of Arashigakure. You've been a stalwart officer for many years and are best prepared for this position of leadership. Do you accept?" He suspected that Kojiro might be emotionally conflicted. He never knew a time in his shinobi career when Kenshin was not in his life to guide him. He was prepared to answer any questions or concerns required of him.

Weapon Specs ▰ Weapon Name: Getsuruitō ▰ Weapon Type: Katana & Rapier [ Reiken Spirit Sword ] ▰ Weapon Size: 38 Inches Total | 30 Inch Blade | 8 Inch Hilt ▰ Style Categorization: Medium Sword ▰ Weapon Weight: 3 lbs ▰ Stat Increase: +2 Speed ▰ Elemental Affinity: Lightning ▰ Description: Getsuruitō (月涙刀, Moon Tear Sword) is a legendary sword that was reworked and merged with the standard-issue Kumogakure Police Department officer rapier commissioned to Kenshin Kosei named Purity. The original form of the sword is a steel and dark blue katana with a bronze crossguard and dragonhead handle. It also has a rapier form that was refined from Purity and is entirely constructed from steel with a dark blue handle and basket hilt. The katana and rapier forms are the same size and constructed of the same materials. Getsuruito was considered a legendary artifact by the people of Seizan as it was wielded by an ancient general. When the rusted blade was awarded by the locals to Kenshin Kosei he discovered that it had the unique ability to merge with and empower one other weapon. When the katana was reworked to its fullest potential it had the abilities of his own weapon in addition to incredible lightning abilities. ▰ Ability Summary: Righteous Sword of the Sentinel [ Senchineru no Seigi no Ken ] | Rank E | Bloodline | Spiritual All forms of Hyuuga techniques including the gentle fist can be used through the sword for the 10 posts that this technique is active. This means that strikes involving the blade cause physical damage including stab wounds as well as seal tenketsu points and any other effects of the technique used through the sword. An additional 5 chakra can be applied to the blade to prevent it from causing physical damage from thrusting but instead seal tenketsu points and inflict pain similar to a stab wound in the area struck but slashing attacks can still cause damage. Half the resource cost of techniques from the rapier style of Sen Gekiretsu Nagareboshi applied allows the technique to carry the tenketsu sealing effects of a same-rank palm strike such as a B-Rank carrying 64 Palms effects. Getsuruito must be in its rapier form to use this ability and 5 chakra can be spent upon activation of this technique to transform it as such. The Righteous Sword of the Sentinel technique has a 10 post duration before necessitating re-activation and costs an E-Rank amount of chakra. The initial activation of this technique consumes an action but all subsidiary abilities of the technique do not.
Smiting Blade of the Night Watch [ Naitō Otchi no Sumittinguburēdo ] | Rank X | Bukijutsu [ Lightning ] | Spiritual When this technique is activated it crackles violently with night blue lightning for the entire duration. The electricity from the blade also forms bolts of lightning over the body of the user and appears to supercharge them. Whenever the blade is swung or thrust over the duration the user can fire a concentrated blast of ten bolts of lightning to accompany the strike equal to the rank applied but for only half the cost to initiate the technique. Hatake, Raiu, and Sage enhanced lightning can pass through the blade and apply to these lightning bolts. The bolts cause a thunderously deafening sonic boom and can inflict tier 2 burns upon direct contact with the lightning. Additionally, these lightning bolts can be freely applied to all complex bukijutsu for no action cost to smite enemies. The only action cost is when the technique is activated and all subsidiary abilities of the technique do not consume actions and only chakra. This ability can be used in both forms of Getsuruito.
Draconic Sabre of Moon Sundering [ Getsu Sandaringu no Dorakonikku Seibā ] | Rank X | Bukijutsu [ Lightning ] | Complex This is the original ability of the ancient Getsuruito blade and thus requires the original katana form. 5 chakra can be spent to transform the blade to its original form upon activation of this technique. Crackling and thunderous dark blue lightning can be applied to the katana's edge at any rank and the same lightning can form a dragon head formed from electricity over the body of the user for 10 posts. This allows all spiritual techniques the sword comes into contact with to be slashed through and even cut in half at the same rank despite the complex nature of the technique. For half of the original cost to activate the technique a same-rank spiritual electrical energy slash can be sent out from the slash of the blade. This same cost can be applied to any complex bukijutsu to achieve the same effect. The original 10 post activation of this ability consumes an action but all subsidiary abilities do not.

Kojiro had just settled in, just gotten comfortable in his chair when Kenshin in his usual manner would get straight to the point. He would not mix words as he stated his engagement with Ada. Kojiro's expression clearly displayed his shock. Kojiro folded his hands, fingers interlocking as he pressed his head against them, locked against the desk. He absorbed the information that was processing slowly for him. Finally, as Kenshin questioned his acceptance, he spoke.
He choked on his words for a moment, unsure on how to respond entirely. " Ya know, Sir. When we met, when I was just a kid several years ago the others in the academy saw you as some pillar of unbending rule. A mountain that was to be bypassed, taking the easy road around. But I couldn't accept that. I couldn't simply walk around the heroes that saved my people. You, Ada, Selina, even Hachiro at the time were all mountains I strove to rise high above." He sat up,shifting his eyes to the side still.
" I pushed myself. Dedicated myself to saving people because that what yo- that's what heroes do. Eventually, standing side by side with you and the rest of the world's strongest against Sandayu it never even occurred to me that I was more than a kid playing hero. I'd found my own two feet. Up until Antioch, I thought I was still chasing your shadow." His fingers tightened in their interlocked position. He was ready to tell all his innermost thoughts, his truths and ultimately his intentions moving forward.
"But that's the thing, Sir.. I realized I tried to emulate you so much that I burred the myself. I can't deliver justice like you have. I can't evoke fear of law breakers by name alone. I can't see the entire village in a glance. I can't do this job like you." He smirked, locking eyes again with Kenshin. " I've got my own values, my own limitations. What I can do is keep the peace, no matter the cost. If the lawbreaker's don't fear my name yet, they'll quake at my arrival. If I can't see the whole village, I can still arrive in an instant to save the people. Basically....I can't be you, I can't do things the way you did. But I'm not climbing the mountain to match you, I'm climbing a bigger mountain to surpass you. "
Kojiro stood up, the chair sliding back from his position as he took a deep bow. " If the offer stands, I accept graciously. I will ensure the village's well-being and deliver justice in your stead. You of all people have earned this new life and I will carry the torch."

▱▰▱The humble man was slightly taken off balance by Kojiro's admiration and flattery. As his teacher he knew that Kojiro idolized him and struggled to set himself apart from his Seizan heroes. He quietly listened to Kojiro's heartfelt commitment to differentiate himself and surpass him. Once he was done, Kenshin nodded and sat back before quietly considering his response for a few moments. "When I became captain the village was crawling with terrorists and besieged with the conflict between the Kumo, Kiri, and Oto citizens. This was all on top of the same standard crime rate I saw in Kumo. The APD has successfully reduced the crime rate to near zero but Antioch has served as a potent reminder that the threat of chaos still remains. It's now your duty to take those next steps to bring the village to absolute justice by any means. The world will soon see you realize the potential I've seen in you every day these last several years." His white eyes stared at Kojiro and softened slightly on him as he encouraged him. Kenshin's tongue was stopped by the uncertainty of the possible impropriety of speaking on a personal level. "I acknowledge your admiration, but I'm unworthy of it. I knew that I was breaking the police code by entering a relationship with Ada, my subordinate. That was wrong and I hope you don't follow that example. That action disgraced the badge that I wear and I hope you'll accept my apology to the department and its code of ethics." The intensely honorable man removed his badge and placed it on the table before Kojiro. The transition of power would begin as of now and he hoped that Kojioro would forgive him not for being his idol but because Kojiro chose to as his equal. "Nonetheless, I knew that I would need to leave the village to serve my clan and lead them through this crisis of succession. I needed Ada's help as much as she needed mine. Our marriage will lead to a prosperous Hyuga clan and empire. I also love her...very much." Kenshin trusted Kojiro with this information but he was no less embarrassed by showing this side of himself. He felt his heart pump as he exclaimed his love for her before clearing his throat and finishing his intended speech. "When I leave, Ada will stay behind for some time to help you before she resigns as well. You'll be invited to our wedding of course and we have many plans in the Lightning Country that you'll see become realized after that." Kenshin's voice took on a lighter tone that was reflective of his new life ahead of him. He was on the precipice of being a married lord in the Lightning Country with new responsibilities and challenges ahead. "Now then, if you're ready we should go to the Spire to inform Toso of my resignation and the transition of power." Kenshin stood from his desk and collected his resignation later and would walk with Kojiro out of CORE and toward the Spire.

As the two important figures left, Aiyume watched with her green hues as both her and her companion right by her leg remained quiet. She took note of the white-haired male.. he was rather.. cute. Rugged. Underneath her right arm, she was holding few boxes of saran wrap. With their observing eyes, they had left the compound entirely. For a moment, Aiyume brought her finger up to her lips and glanced towards her friend, in a small shushing motion. They listened. And waited. The footsteps were fading and then.. it was gone. With a mischievous smirk, the duo had slipped into the Captain of the Core's office. Locked the door behind them, "Okay, Tsuta, listen for me?" She questioned as Tsuta wagged her tail and pressed her ear up against the wall for any signs. This was going to be fun!
Her heart was racing. Her arms and legs were tingling and shaking. First things first, she placed the boxes quietly onto the desks as she found a piece of paper in the trash and folded it up. With that, she picked up one of the desk's leg and placed the paper perfectly well that you cannot see it unless you moved the desk out of the way. Not only that, but the sly female also wiggled the table and it started to wobble. Aiyume and Tsuta, on cue, started to snort as they did all they can to hold back their laughter. Aiyume called Tsuta over as she handed Tsuta the end of the wrap as Tsuta walked backward, making it long as they started to wrap around the desk. Once they were done with that, they started to wrap each item individually wrapped. The pencil? Wrapped. Lamp? Wrapped. Papers were wrapped, one by one. Tsuta helped mostly with long wraps such as the desk, chairs, and a bit of the floor lamps. When they were done, Aiyume took the empty boxes of the saran wraps as both Tsuta and Aiyume stood there, proud of their work. Poor guy won't just have to deal with the wraps, but a wobbling desk.
"We did it, girl!" She glanced down towards Tsuta who hopped up as they laughed and hop around while Aiyume held her paws. Then she let Tsuta free as Tsuta paws met the ground, Aiyume leaned down and started giving her hugs while rubbing her belly and kissing all over her. "Muawh! Muawh! Muuuuuuwaaaahh!" Tsuta replied with tail wags and sneak licks. After a bit of victory, the duo listened by the door to make sure that no one was coming by. The moment it was clear, Aiyume and her partner in crime slipped out as they dump the boxes in the trash can and made their way out.

Her chakra on her hands was still pumping as she made sure that he was still under a genjutsu. She couldn't believe the mess on the way here with everything that was going on but at least CORE was still intact. Thankfully. A chill went up in her spine at the imagination of prisoners being free and luckily, right now, they could just focus on helping each other and rebuild and not so much about hunting down prisoners. Tsuta followed behind Aiyume, her fur still standing at ends on her back, her eyes watching Aiyume as she still carried the convict. Entered into the building, she passed him off to the guards and was able to give them the brief rundown as to why she arrested him. They handed her some paperwork.
"Wait, seriously?!" Yelped Aiyume as they shrugged. With a sigh, she started to fill out the paperwork as quickly as she could. It would be noticeable that she has chicken scratch handwriting. When she was done, she checked up and made sure that he was detained. While filing the paperwork a few minutes ago, it crossed her mind that she doesn't know his name. "I'll report to the Arashikage about this and see if he-" She was stopped and informed of the new Arashikage. Aiyume blinked but then nodded, wondering what else happened? She was increasingly getting worried for her pack. She needed to get back to her academy. "Okay. I'll go check on my pack and then if I happen to see the Arashikage on the way, I'll inform her that we made an arrest." With that, the Inuzuka left.

Dedicated Disciplines: Battlefield Presence → The user's powerful presence on the battlefield strikes terror into their foes. Opponents are able to sense the user's terrifying fighting spirit five feet from the user per body rank of the user through chakra sense. Those within range can have this radiating fearful aura become the trigger for genjutsu, allowing genjutsu to be cast by acknowledging the user. In addition, should an opponent be targeted by a melee technique that is greater in rank than the target's body rank that target has tier two paralysis applied to their legs, requiring it to be broken by Kai equal to the user's body rank, costing the target no action for that specific instance of kai. Lasting Hyponsis → The user's genjutsu prowess has achieved a heightened level of potency and lingers for longer. The primary sense of any genjutsu that was released using Kai lingers for [1] additional post. This residual effect is minor because the manipulation of the target with the technique has ended. For example, a complete darkness sight genjutsu that was dispelled may leave the lingering feeling that the world is still a bit darker than it is in reality. If a genjutsu used a mental status effect then it will linger for [1] post longer at one level below what it was before at a minimum of level one. Originally level one mental status effects are too weak to linger. The base duration of your genjutsu are increased by [1] post at E-C, [2] at B-A, and [3] at S and above. Instance genjutsu are not affected by an increase of duration but instead cannot be dispelled by kai and only by pain. Genjutsu upkeep lessens by [5] Chakra per body rank and non-Instant are applied with overwhelming, requiring lingering genjutsu to use [1.5x] the resource to Kai. Taijutsu - Genjutsu : → Can choose to use the kai technique to release genjutsu with stamina instead of chakra at one rank higher. In addition, the user may pay the cost of a genjutsu at any time without casting it upon the opponent. The technique cast has a trigger of physical contact with the user applied. When contact with the user is made, the target will fall under the effects of the genjutsu. This is limited to two genjutsu simultaneously and genjutsu cannot be retained after combat ends.
Dreaming [ Aiyume ]: Tribute of the Sand [ Mitsugimono no Suna ] ▰Rank: S ▰Primary Sense: Touch ▰Additional Senses: Sight ▰Base Duration: 1 Post ▰Upkeep: None ▰Trigger: Outstretched Arms ▰Source: Physical Phantasm ▰Status Effect: Mental Stress ▰Description: This technique was originally devised by a rather mischievous teacher who wished to impress upon the class the fearsome nature of Genjutsu, but once its effectiveness was seen it became a popular sand Genjutsu. It simply starts with the user stretching their hand outwards towards the intended target and slowing closing as if grasping some invisible object. The target at that point will feel a tightening in their body as if one of their organs were being grabbed (note: the particular organ isn’t specific, but it is typically the heart). If the target looks down at their body at that point, they typically will see several claws of sand embedded in their body near the affected area. With one swift motion, the user will then pull, and the target will see and feel clearly one of their organs being torn free from their body, leaving a gaping hole in its place. Naturally, this is incredibly painful, but that is the nicest part of the Jutsu for the target. Their body will quickly feel the effects resulting from the loss of that particular organ, and in the case of the heart, this will quickly lead to an incredible feeling of weakness such that any movement at all can quickly become impossible, as well as numerous other very harmful effects.

SHIONxxxxxMORI Shion stood outside the interrogation chambers of the CORE compound in quiet contemplation. Simple interrogations were usually above her station, but she'd received word that this capture had been brought in by an upstart within the organization. Naturally, intrigue caught the best of her. You couldn't outright kill a Jashinist, and they seemed to revel in pain; she was excited to see what it would take to break someone that... steadfast. A blue-black flame danced to life in her palm as she lifted her hand outward; Shion examined it as the sparks danced around her hand. *I wonder...*
"Officer Aiyume." Aiyume stopped before she left at hearing her name as she turned to see it was another CORE member. "And Officer Tsuta." She corrected as the man blinked at her, "We're a team. Officer Aiyume and Officer Tsuta." Tsuta barked in agreement with Aiyume as the guy sighed "And Officer Tsuta. You're being summoned to the interrogation chambers." Aiyume frowned, "Now?" The man glared at her as if she was being childish to say that. "Yes. Now." With that, he left. Aiyume groaned softly. This was going to put a damper on things. First, she wanted to get back to the academy and make sure everyone was okay. Second, there was the date with Hotaru. Scratched her cheek for a moment, she sighed as she went into the compound and requested a messenger. Then she started to scribble a fast apology and asked for a rain check. Folded it up, she handed it to the messenger. Hopefully, Hotaru wouldn't deny her from now on but she would understand if he did.
Together, the duo made their way to the interrogation chambers and saw a familiar face. "Officer Aiyume and Officer Tsuta reporting," Aiyume smiled, flashing the pearly white canines as Tsuta did a cough to keep from barking cause her bark would be too loud but the cough was her way of saying hello, her tail wagged high in the air as she stood by Aiyume's side. They both sniffed a bit and it was odd that the woman before them smelled catty.

SHIONxxxxxMORI Shion's eyes shot to the side at the sound of the pair's footsteps; oh great, tamers. For whatever reason, only the annoyingly extroverted were drawn to working with animals. The double introduction of the tamer AND pet both as officers only served to further prove Shion's assumptions; she was on interrogation duty with a newbie. Shion may have been familiar to the girl, she unfortunately could not say the same in kind. It was understandable, given the girl's rank. Shion was one of the most elevated ninja in the village and the boss of half the people working in this very building, but this officer Aiyume... or was Tsuta the person... not but a genin-hopeful.
"Whatever, newbie," Shion lead with a sigh, "Officer, huh? So... you one'a Kenshins goons?" It made sense; that man had is fingers in so many pies that even Little Jack Horner would blush. "Eh, whatever. Let's just get this train wreck a'rollin'. she'd say, pushing the door open and holding it open for the genin. "Just tell me what you know about this guy."
Aiyume and Tsuta weren't amused by being called a newbie even though it wasn't completely wrong, yet they held their tongue but simply looked at each other. Her eyebrow rose at Kenshin's name, "Heard of the man but never trained under him or anything. Or even met him. The same goes for Captain Koijro. They kept saying he was too busy so you are the actual only CORE member I met that I can have an interaction with." Aiyume responded honestly towards the female, wondering what was her problem. They just met and she was starting to sense some hostility. Walked through the doors, she heard Tsuta whined behind her as Aiyume shook her head as if answering a question. "Not much, sadly. He attacked the academy and threatened to harm my pac-" She stopped herself, "Threatened to harm some of the Arashi shinobi and its students," corrected herself, Aiyume made sure she was able to keep up with the pace. "I attacked him, Tsuta, and I placed him under genjutsu to keep him immobilized as we brought him here. While we were attempting an arrest, we were also attacked by a female that was confirmed to be part of the Jashinist Cult that attacked us and she had spoken to him as if they were comrades. That's all we know." Aiyume kept it simple, short, sweet, and to the point for Shion.

▱▰▱Kenshin arrived at the CORE Compound and was allowed in with no interference. He suspected that Shion would be at her workplace. He was singularly focused on removing the corrupting Jashinist chakra from Matatabi. He had to rip the corruption out of Takao rather forcefully at the hospital but he had a more refined idea for Shion given the location they were in. When he entered the section of the compound that Aiyume and Shion were in he quietly stepped through the door. When he overheard Aiyume it was quickly evident that she was giving Shion intel on the Jashinists. This was a good start and he hoped that this would be the impetus for a large-scale investigation to ensure that Arashi would not be taken by surprise by the crazed cultists again. "Pardon me. I believe Matatabi is still under the effects of the Jashinist's chakra, correct?" He would only interject when there was a break in Aiyume and Shion's interview. He looked around the room before refocusing on Shion. "I used the same procedure on Takao and Chomei. Basically, I combine my sage chakra and demonic chakra in my hand before removing the Jashinist chakra from your seal. I then use a technique to destroy the chakra, but it's a painful and risky operation." Kenshin was unsure of how his abilities would work this time given Shion's higher level of experience with Matatabi. However, he had a solution. "I think we can make the process safer if we use the chakra seals in the prison cells here. When I remove the Jashinist chakra down there we can turn on the seals at the same time. This will cause the Jashinist chakra manifestation to dissipate instantly without us having to fight it. Does that make sense?" The ninshuu sage tried to explain his plan in a straightforward manner to Shion. If she had questions or objections then he was prepared to clarify. He looked at Aiyume before continuing. "The Jashinists are powerful. They're able to corrupt the tailed beasts with even more dark chakra, making them even more unstable and dangerous. It's something to keep an eye on." He advised her although he was uncertain if she was going to join in on the hunt for the Jashinists or if she was just a witness. Either way, it was helpful information in Kenshin's estimation.

Active Effects Byakugan Status: • Inactive Tenseigan Status: • Inactive Human Sage Mode Status: • Inactive Reiken no Michi Status: • Inactive Gyuki Transformation Status: • Inactive Status Effects: • None
Personal Attributes ▱▰▱ Piercing Accuracy | The clansman is more proficient than his fellow clan members at striking tenketsu. One's gentle fist application allows them to reduce 1.5 times the amount of chakra spent in a juken strike instead of 1.25. For example, if one spends 100 chakra on a gentle fist technique, the attack robs the target of 150 instead of the 125 normal clansmen would reduce. ▱▰▱ Purest Lineage | The clansman's thoroughbred lineage allows them access to the Byakugan without the use of a hand seal, chakra cost, or activation. In addition, should they unlock the Tenseigan, they may have 50% less reserves to maintain it than other clan members and may also activate the Tenseigan without the use of a hand seal, chakra cost, or activation. ▱▰▱ Physical Prowess | The Hyuga gains a [2] point increase in any stat after mastering stage 3 of the gentle fist and another [2] points after mastering stage 6 for a total of [4] rather than [2]. In addition, the Hyuga gains [3] custom slots to be used exclusively for the gentle fist style and [1] taijutsu style slot. ▱▰▱ Genetic Palette | With intensive genetic therapy and strong blood, this character is able to possess more than one transplant. This allows the character up to two transplants total, of any of the three categories. ▱▰▱ Thundering Justice | Lightning-based techniques used by the Hatake are granted a concussive blast in the form of a sonic boom upon impact. This concussive blast has a range of five feet per rank of the parent technique. Those within the area of the blast have a knock-back effect applied if their body rank is lower than the parent technique. In addition, deafness is applied upon impact for two posts. ▱▰▱ Tsunami of Justice | Kenshin gains access to the water element. ▱▰▱ Ionic Blade | The user's bukijutsu and basic combat weapon strikes may be made complex to add their lightning element to the attacks. This causes tiered paralysis on contact equal to the rank of the technique it is paired with. ▱▰▱ Blessings of Valor | As a world-famous hero, you are forever bestowed with an extra reward in arc, timeskip, and guildwide events. ▱▰▱ Short-Circuiting Juken | For an additional amount of chakra that is half of the amount spent for the original technique, Hatake chidori raiton can be applied to complex juken techniques to inject the enemy's body with lightning. The Hatake's chidori raiton inflicts a tier of full-body paralysis that is equivalent to the technique's rank up to the second tier. This paralysis lasts for two posts per rank of the technique at a maximum of six posts. Applying Chidori chakra to the Juken consumes a second offensive activation. ▱▰▱ Storm Sage | Lightning techniques cast while in sage mode and when enhanced by nature chakra burn brighter and inflict a tier of blindness that is equivalent to the technique's rank. This blindness lasts for two posts per rank of the technique at a maximum of six posts. ▱▰▱ Stern Spirit | Reiken no Michi virtue states cost one rank less in stamina to activate and maintain. The stamina cost of the virtue states cannot be reduced beyond this. ▱▰▱ Raijin Drum | While in human sage mode, Kenshin is able to self-korabo one lightning technique, one wind technique, and one water technique into one three-times powerful truth-seeking orb. This consumes the chakra of the three techniques on his nature chakra reserves but only one offensive action. This can only occur once for every three posts. ▱▰▱ Conduction Mastery | Kenshin is able to self-korabo his lightning and water techniques more efficiently by paying 10 less chakra when one raiton and one suiton are combined. ▱▰▱ The Grand Order | Status effects affect the templar by [1] tier lower at a minimum of tier 1 when defending their religion's faithful and their houses of worship. This PA is only obtained by grand templars and is automatically obtained once that title is granted. ▱▰▱ Eye of the Storm | When using techniques or abilities based on the water and-or lighting element, including ranton and other bloodline techniques their rank is increased depending on the proximity to the user. When 20-25 feet from the user, techniques are increased by one rank in strength, when 5-10 feet from the user, techniques are increased by two ranks. ▱▰▱ Conductive Destruction | Ranton users are masters of their elements so one Raiton and one Suiton ninjutsu can be self-Koraboed for only one offensive activation. This ability can only be used once per three posts. If both Raiton and Suiton techniques are used in the same post then they are all reduced by 5 chakra per rank of the technique.

Weapon Specs ▰ Weapon Name: Getsuruitō ▰ Weapon Type: Katana & Rapier [ Reiken Spirit Sword ] ▰ Weapon Size: 38 Inches Total | 30 Inch Blade | 8 Inch Hilt ▰ Style Categorization: Medium Sword ▰ Weapon Weight: 3 lbs ▰ Stat Increase: +2 Speed ▰ Elemental Affinity: Lightning ▰ Description: Getsuruitō (月涙刀, Moon Tear Sword) is a legendary sword that was reworked and merged with the standard-issue Kumogakure Police Department officer rapier commissioned to Kenshin Kosei named Purity. The original form of the sword is a steel and dark blue katana with a bronze crossguard and dragonhead handle. It also has a rapier form that was refined from Purity and is entirely constructed from steel with a dark blue handle and basket hilt. The katana and rapier forms are the same size and constructed of the same materials. Getsuruito was considered a legendary artifact by the people of Seizan as it was wielded by an ancient general. When the rusted blade was awarded by the locals to Kenshin Kosei he discovered that it had the unique ability to merge with and empower one other weapon. When the katana was reworked to its fullest potential it had the abilities of his own weapon in addition to incredible lightning abilities. ▰ Ability Summary: Righteous Sword of the Sentinel [ Senchineru no Seigi no Ken ] | Rank E | Bloodline | Spiritual All forms of Hyuuga techniques including the gentle fist can be used through the sword for the 10 posts that this technique is active. This means that strikes involving the blade cause physical damage including stab wounds as well as seal tenketsu points and any other effects of the technique used through the sword. An additional 5 chakra can be applied to the blade to prevent it from causing physical damage from thrusting but instead seal tenketsu points and inflict pain similar to a stab wound in the area struck but slashing attacks can still cause damage. Half the resource cost of techniques from the rapier style of Sen Gekiretsu Nagareboshi applied allows the technique to carry the tenketsu sealing effects of a same-rank palm strike such as a B-Rank carrying 64 Palms effects. Getsuruito must be in its rapier form to use this ability and 5 chakra can be spent upon activation of this technique to transform it as such. The Righteous Sword of the Sentinel technique has a 10 post duration before necessitating re-activation and costs an E-Rank amount of chakra. The initial activation of this technique consumes an action but all subsidiary abilities of the technique do not.
Smiting Blade of the Night Watch [ Naitō Otchi no Sumittinguburēdo ] | Rank X | Bukijutsu [ Lightning ] | Spiritual When this technique is activated it crackles violently with night blue lightning for the entire duration. The electricity from the blade also forms bolts of lightning over the body of the user and appears to supercharge them. Whenever the blade is swung or thrust over the duration the user can fire a concentrated blast of ten bolts of lightning to accompany the strike equal to the rank applied but for only half the cost to initiate the technique. Hatake, Raiu, and Sage enhanced lightning can pass through the blade and apply to these lightning bolts. The bolts cause a thunderously deafening sonic boom and can inflict tier 2 burns upon direct contact with the lightning. Additionally, these lightning bolts can be freely applied to all complex bukijutsu for no action cost to smite enemies. The only action cost is when the technique is activated and all subsidiary abilities of the technique do not consume actions and only chakra. This ability can be used in both forms of Getsuruito.
Draconic Sabre of Moon Sundering [ Getsu Sandaringu no Dorakonikku Seibā ] | Rank X | Bukijutsu [ Lightning ] | Complex This is the original ability of the ancient Getsuruito blade and thus requires the original katana form. 5 chakra can be spent to transform the blade to its original form upon activation of this technique. Crackling and thunderous dark blue lightning can be applied to the katana's edge at any rank and the same lightning can form a dragon head formed from electricity over the body of the user for 10 posts. This allows all spiritual techniques the sword comes into contact with to be slashed through and even cut in half at the same rank despite the complex nature of the technique. For half of the original cost to activate the technique a same-rank spiritual electrical energy slash can be sent out from the slash of the blade. This same cost can be applied to any complex bukijutsu to achieve the same effect. The original 10 post activation of this ability consumes an action but all subsidiary abilities do not.
