Takahiro had eliminated the enemies successfully, though they weren’t killed they were burned with a powerful scare that would be permanent. After such actions was performed he noticed the change in Riku’s personality, almost as if he began to hate Takahiro for the decision he made. Yes, Takahiro himself was against taking life himself, but he had been presented with terrible scenes of killing enemies and he had come to understand that sometimes when things are at risk a sacrifice needs to be made. That was what Takahiro did, he performed an executive decision last minute. The enemy was unconscious as Takahiro spoke to the group and mentioned that the ninja was not among the guards in the tunnel. Hearing his plan and the way he called on Takahiro to go outside and fight the boss he nodded in response and followed him to go outside. Nanalu would stay back with the prisoners while they took on the leader of this operation. The four members of the recon team stood back and watched as Nanalu watched over them to assure safety. The question was… would Riku and Takahiro suffice to defeat the boss? They were about to find out soon, but before reaching the outside Takahiro spoke towards Riku “I know you may look at me different for the actions I took, but you need to understand, I almost lost a comrade and I won’t let it happen again.” He spoke firmly and hope Riku would understand his perspective on why he performed such actions.

The moment they reached outside and were face to face with the boss, Riku seemed very confident and spoke first. His fist aimed towards the boss as he spoke and said that they didn’t have to do this. The boss responded with “That’s easy for you to say, who broke into my facility and stole my property?” He wasted no time and began his attack as he was already agitated and annoyed at the fact that these kids had bested his guards. He quickly weaved the hand seals Ram → Monkey → Horse → Ram. Doing this he expelled from his mouth a clone which looked exactly like him, though the nature of the clone was very different. At this point it was obvious this man had the earth element due to the clone technique he had just use. The moment the clone was created it dashed forward at a high speed and attempted to keep Takahiro occupied. The moment the clone was summoned it dashed forward with a great amount of speed. Enough speed that even Takahiro would be impressed, he would close in and attempt to slam straight into Takahiro in a tackle like manner, this would result in Takahiro being sent back a few feet away from Riku as he had his hands full. The battle between Takahiro and the clone would then follow as now Riku had his own issues to deal with.

The real boss stepped forward and pulled a Kunai from his pouch adjusting it in his hand to hold a reverse hand grip. His purple hue’s watched carefully as he was interested to see what this young boy had in store for the match, especially since his comrade was occupied with his own clone for the time being. During the same time Takahiro was attacked by the clone the boss prepared and attacked shortly after leaving no time for Riku to go and help Takahiro after he was apprehended. Upon his approach he attempted to swing his right hand which held the kunai in a horizontal manner, doing this the kunai was aimed to cut Riku directly in the face, to be exact where his eyes remained. Though this was a frontal assault, but you can ensure that even if it was, Riku needed to be on his feet as he dashed forward with great speed giving him very little time to react. If the attack was successful Riku would find out that his eyes had been cut and he was now blind, after as a follow up the boss would pull his right leg upwards and sent straight kick for the boys gut which would sent him back a few feet to be exact about 5 feet. Though this follow up would only happen if the cut on Riku’s eyes was successful. Now that Riku and Takahiro were busy with the boss, Nanalu would have something to worry about as well.

Dynamic Decision for Nanalu:  She can start to move the recon team to a more safe location and assist Riku and Takahiro.

Or she can remain in the cave for another posting round with the possibilities of the guards who got knocked out instead of burned waking up.
