When the duo finally reached Sunagakure a part of Takahiro wanted to turn back. The sight before them was, in the simplest of words, horrific. The desert sand was dyed red and bodies littered the ground. It was grisly, to say the least. The last time Takahiro had seen a sight similar to this he had thrown up but now he was just washed with a sense of sadness. So much life lost. From what he could gather as they made their way through the field of the dead was that the civilians had fought against train shinobi. "Some sort of uprising maybe? A revolution of sorts? I wonder who won overall ..."

A tattered flag hung at the base of a pole, the red cloud blazing in the centre of the tattered fabric. Shinra was right, a regular bandit group would not go to such an effort, nor could a regular bandit group occupy a major village so easily. "That red cloud must mean something, look the flak jackets have it too. It's definitely an insignia to something, another village perhaps?" The Sunagakure flag blew in front of them, just as tattered as the other flag. If it was close enough Takahiro would jump and attempt to grab it from the air, briefly inspecting it before folding it and stuffing it away in his jacket.

As they went further into the field of the dead they came across a message written in blood on the chest of a dead shinobi. Takahiro had only heard one person say that in his whole life. "Ranta. It must be him" There was a flicker of hope that ignited his ever burning will once more. Before Takahiro could dash off into the village Shinra stopped him, stating he would use his sensory abilities to try and pinpoint him.

Reluctantly, Takahiro would crouch down beside his teammate and wait impatiently. His right hand resting on the hilt of his Tanto, in this situation it surely didn't hurt to be ready for anything at any time. "Lemme know what you find, I'll keep an eye out around here" He refrained from activating his Sharingan just now which meant he would have to pay far more attention, but they were in hostile territory, they had to keep their identities as secret as possible.
