-Naraku witnessed the fruition of hard work as Shinra painted the hull of the building with explosives and detonated them bringing forth a flurry of fire that consumed the building and violated its structer as it penetrated deeply leaving only a broken stairwell accessible. Naraku was impressed with the way the explosion was handled but moreso was he in what came to follow. A howl like a beast resounded from the pit that lay below. Naraku found the voice invigorating but also felt a chill run through him as he listened to its beckon.





While he listened to the command of his commander he would tighten formation only for him to reconfigure it once more. Naraku began to feel more and more weary as the engagement prolonged. This was his first rodeo under the name of Shinobi so in this epic struggle he felt himself slipping. A tired mind was a deadly mind as he tried desperately to keep up with the energy needed to engage this threat and protect what is precious to him “Protect the world around me…” Naraku began to mumble his ninja creed like a mantra which would empower him. He may not be a mighty titan but for the sake of his world he would sacrifice even himself.



“Roger that.” Ranta demanded a reconfiguring of the formation and so upon his demand Naraku pushed back and retreated with Takahiro hopefully in tow as he began his epic quest. While a safe distance away from the heart of action that was being fought before his very eyes Naraku witnessed the raw force of Shinra and Ranta, a  deadly duo and yet soon rising would be something much more terrible. It was a scene painted in the bowels of Hades, a Hellscape that could make the Devil’s veins run cold.



As the demonic visage began his assault on his comrades and him he heard the bark and so he obliged by the demand that was brought to his table and so with the weaving of hand seals Naraku swiftly procured four liquid doppelgangers that took the blazing damnation from themselves. The collapse of the clones back into liquid state would force the flames to an end with their water snuffing the roaring flame.



With his two former clones still intact he was still in business, and despite the urge to shine bright he stopped himself from seeking the titan for battle and instead spoke with calmness as he assessed the situation “I believe it is time we retreat. We have the base. Lord Hokage and the Phoenix guard can handle this. We have the base of operations and that should suffice.” Naraku thought only of how to save his team and would forsake the mission if it meant saving their lives. While cowardly as he may seem Naraku spoke cleanly and without a tone of any sort meaning to convince his squad mates to retreat into the night and let the strong clash with the strong. Naraku may be a diva but he is not suicidal and saw no point of engaging with such a dangerous person. This scene was too much of one with grim bearings as he could only see defeat and slaughter beyond the horizon.-
