Hotaru chuckled at his explanation, “I see, it must be nice to go camping. I’ve never camped before.” She would then remain silent as they continued to walk. A few minutes later, she stopped in her tracks as soon as it began to become misty; something was awfully wrong. When Hiroshoka asked why they were stopping and that the fog wouldn’t mess with her hair, she scoffed. “Someone’s here you prick.” Just then she felt herself become paralyzed. The mist became even thicker and she now knew it was controlled by chakra. Once she heard the flute, it became clear to her why she couldn’t move; it was Genjutsu.

Since Hotaru couldn’t injure herself, she concentrated her chakra to dispel the genjutsu properly just as a gust of wind blew in their direction; hopefully knocking the mist and the bandits off their feet. Hotaru would look up to see the large Eagles battling the other creatures, “Never thought I’d see that…” Air battling seemed cool. She turned her attention back to Shoka who had made clones to surround the researcher, “Are you okay Tsu, Shoka?” she’d ask, getting into her gentle fist stance. If the mist was gone, she’d hopefully easily be able to see the two assailants.

Hotaru could only hope Taka and Obelisk would be okay and be able to join them soon. For now, she’d hold her ground with Hiroshoka and protect Tsuki to the best of their abilities.
