Gideon Leaps up, after the coward. 'You're not leaving with that Orb!' He lunges downwards, his Ninja-to aimed firmly downwards as he aims to pierce the cowards shell.

The last attacks were either performed sloppily or half heartedly as the sands of the desert covered the last remaining visible portion of the armor. Even the mound it created flattended out in record time. The only reminder of the battle was to be found in the motionless body and bloodstained sand around one of the participants.

Soreda lets out a sigh before his shuriken vanishes into his armband. "Well... Was it everything you thought it would be?" Soreda asks of no one in particular. Fighting was clearly not his thing. "Anyone see where the orb went?"

Seido doesn't answer Soreda's question but he's clearly disgusted that one of his enemies got away. After a second of staring at the dust where the enemy had left he spat in the dirt. "There's nothing more revolting than a loose end. Good job in the fight Soreda. Someone go check the body. I'm going to go fix Nodoka." He begins walking away from the group. "NODOKA" he shouts as he tries to figure out where the hell the girl has dissapeared too.

“Jeez, give away our position for others to come running in, why don’t you?” Looking, and feeling, extremely beaten up, Nodoka shambled from her hiding spot, removing her mask and putting it within the pocket of her coat. Her hand moved to wipe more blood from her eyes as she grimaced in pain from her injuries. “As it is, who knows who heard all the noise you all made in the fight and are on their way to pick us off. I’m not an expert on tactics and what have you, but I’d guess that we need to leave the area immediately.”

Gideon nods, 'I agree we have to get going soon, but first we find that orb, quick and clean, then we evacuate.' Aggro rushes over and Gideon nods to him as he barks loudly and gets to searching, nose inches above the dirt, searching for any trace of the younger brothers scent, who had the orb at one point.

As Aggro begins searching around the motionless ninja, Larry is already crouching over him, his eyes closed and muttering something to himself before reaching down and closing what is left of the younger ninja's eyes. With that done, he dusts off his hands and gets to his feet, resting his hands on his hips and looking at Nodoka in amusement.
__________________"Why, it's no problem Nodoka, it was our pleasure getting rid of the scary turtle boys who nearly demolished you. Fact is, they probably would have attacked us after we'd gotten the orb - you don't lie in hiding just for the sheer amusement of watching me nearly get set on fire," The South African reaches into his pack, taking out the orb and tossing it briefly in the air before catching it again, now allowing himself a slightly indulgent smile. "Anyway, you do have a point though - we should make tracks once we have the orb, preferably erasing our tracks when we leave - this sand makes it way too easy for someone to follow us."

Seido looked around from one team member to the next in honest shock at what he was hearing. "What if they hear us? What if they follow us? Did all of you forget why we formed this group in the first place. Strength in numbers. We have the capacity to defeat anybody on this island in combat when we are at our peak. This was the phillosophy this team was built on. We need to take the time necessary to regather our strength and lick our wounds or the next time two nobody ninjas in turtle shells decide to use us as punching backs we are not going to have the capacity to say no. This group may be a democracy, but I strongly suggest that we heal before we move. We may not get another chance to breathe and quite frankly, I don't think we have the time to cover our tracks and still get far enough away for it to matter if someone did hear us."

"Seido, relax - I wasn't suggesting we get running now," Larry began looking amongst the remains of the collapsed tower, finding a sizable piece of wood from it. "Get everyone patched up, I'll work on covering our tracks out of here - obviously I can't do much once we're out of the sand, but that's a worry for later."

Seido begins to tend to Nodkoa who despite her brave exterior is in desperate need of it. (I'll allow you to take the max hp that Seido can restore and that goes for anyone else treated by him.. this time.)
__________________Aggro and Gideon manage to sniff out the location of the orb and it is on the body. Larry catches a glimpse of it as he closes the eyes of the fallen ninja. There is a small compartment in the suit that must have popped open during one of the jarring blows he received. Larry starts to clean up tracks as best he can while the others are tended to. (Let me know if you guys are ready to move out.) |

Gideon grabs the orb and looks at it, palming it before looking around at everyone else. 'Who wants the Orb? Aggro and I can get the next one....' He looks to Soreda and points to him. 'Figure it's best to give it to the kid, he'll have the most trouble getting another through means of direct combat if we get split up....Any takers otherwise...?'

Soreda makes no attempt to debate what could be taken as a sideways insult of his fighting capabilities. If sympathy was going to get him an orb, the boy was perfectly fine with that. He raises his hands like a basketball player ready to receive a pass and nods with a reassuring smile.

Seido nods to Larry but otherwise doesn't acknowledge him. He is content that his way is the way that is being chosen and while he would like to argue the lack of benefit in relaxing, he silently accepts the fact that not everyone has the mentality of a well-oiled machine. He listens to Larry and Soreda as they exchange one of the two orbs before approaching Nodoka. "Try not to talk while I'm healing you. It... slows the process." He then presses a hand to her stomach and begins pumping a little bit of his chakra into her as a starter kit, which he then works into her own chakra coil and uses to jump start her own healing systems, purging her body of every wound from catastrophic to infinitesimal, all in exactly 5 minutes. "That's it. Your good. Try not to do it again." he says with the attitude of a disinterested high-school detention counselor.

With all of the tasks completed the group goes back into formation. It is another long mind numbing journey. Rolling hills of sand followed by even more rolling hills of sand. The only consolation is the ever nearing forest line that grows larger and larger.
__________________It is an uneventful journey. Perhaps it is the fact that it is early on and not many ninjas wish to interact with each other yet or maybe it is one of numerous others reasons that the only ones to have attacked were two very odd brothers. Towards the end of the desert there is a cave dug into the side of the hard rock of a moderate sized cliff which stretches into the forest. On the outside of the cave you see an injured man noticeably Native American curled up on the ground shaking. His clothes are torn and his pupils dilated in fear as he mumbles to himself. Upon sensing the groups approach he lets out a small shriek of terror but does not move from his fetus position. Who's there? is all he can manage to speak but even that is broken up by the gasps from panic. |
