As he chuckled, naturally her left hand would ball to a fist as It drew back, only for her self-control to kick in instead opting to grasp his jawline before pressing the blade of her kuni just above his adam's apple.
“You may know all those back in that camp but when it comes down to the truth of the matter, you do not know me and any of them could easily have been traitors or even...” as she spoke her appearance would shift changing into that of the male Maikaru had been speaking to when she first arrived before again slowly shifting to the male with the cigar, her voice changing to match her appearance,
“an imposter all together.” pushing away from him to allow him up and to continue.
She would slip her Kuni into its pouch her gaze passing about the landscape as she changed yet again. Rolling her eyes she would reply,
“You say you know the plan yet speak so rapidly of other plans.“ with a sigh her left hand would rise to rub over her face before shifting over her hair allowing her appearance to change again this time taking the appearance of an olive skinned, black haired beauty, a true enough desert beauty, her features more rounded and her eyes ever so slightly different shades of green, her outfit similar to what she had been wearing save for it being black now and the symbol of Iwagakure now no longer visible. she would reach up to unpin the veil covering the left side of her face, now that her appearance had been altered she wouldn't have a need for such. She would watch as the electricity took out the bandits life, taking note of the chakra nature used by Maikaru before speaking, now sure they were the only two to listen to her words,
“For the record my name is Taeru... “ As she spoke she would step up to wrap a piece of the fabric from about her form, around his neck, twisting it once before speaking
“Hands” she wouldn’t, however, wait for him to complie reaching to draw his hands together in front of him as she stepped before him, wrapping the cloth now around his wrists, a makeshift and for all intensive purposes, convincing binding.
“However Miss sunshine will do for now. If you are to be my prisoner you may as well look the part.” she would give a light tug on the binding, such only tightening about his throat and wrists when she tugged otherwise loose and usually comfortable due to the soft texture of the fabric itself.
Without looking back she would stride forwards stringing him along in silence. Yet as they neared the target camp she would tug a little rougher, her demeanour taking on an alluring stride, her hips swaying more and a devilish smile crawling her lips. Her hand would raise as though to flag the guards down as they approached, yet throughout all of the changes to her stand it would be her voice that stood out, taking on a more native edge and her tone no longer flat now holding a sweet silky tone with each of her words,
“Hey, long time no see! Ouh...” pausing as she got closer before continuing,
“Your not the guards from before, though I suppose’ you guy change all the time, well regimented and all that.” She would speak seemingly none stop, slipping herself in-between the guards before giving another tug to draw Maikaru closer.
“I’ve brought back another as per the request and agreement boys.” yet s Maikaru spat at their feet she would shift away and into the other leaving a small mark of her chakra upon him, as she stepped away a thin strand of the chakra would tether them together. As the guard punched Maikaru she would keep face with simple ease, only once Maikaru doubled over would she take the opportunity to step back to his side leaning over to rest against him resting her chin against her hands as she smiled at the two.
“A good beating would do him some good, he’d make a nice little pet, I almost loath handing him over.” the first guard stepping up would hold his hand out,
“Come on now, there's real men about, if you were able to kick him into submission he ain't no man. Spend some time about men from Kumoagakure and you’ll realise that.” She would rise from leaning against Maikaru before handing over the bindings leash to the guard leaving an imprint of her chakra and scent on him only to leave an imprint of her chakra on the guards hand as she passed over the leash.
“Don't mind if I do.” The guard would pass the leash over to the other guard as she would wink before wandering off into the camp only to detour once out of sight to follow and keep tabs on Maikaru, making sure to be there if something went wrong. Only once he had been locked in the makeshift cages would she shift the string of chakra stepping past the guard again, effectively pickpocketing the keys in the process. Once she had the keys she would turn her attention to gathering knowledge, shifting her appearance once again, now to a youngster, leith, tall and male. Slipping the remaining slither of material that hung from her to drape it over her shoulder she would continue through the camp, making sure to map the layout and note those whos chakra stood out.
Only when an explosion erupted sending a silencing wave before the chaos of action sprung into life. As ordinary members of the camp moved away from the explosion and the shinobi moved towards she would remain as a male and follow the crowd heading away. She would slip from the crowd as she came upon the makeshift cages. She would slip the key into the lock before pushing the door open
“Come along sunshine, we will take them all, that way they won’t know who we’ve come for.” she would lean in to take the cloth from him in a fluid movement giving one last tug as though to help him to his feet, having assumed he had found their objective.
“Now move.”

Name: Transformation Technique (変化の術 ~ Henge no Jutsu)
Canon/Custom: Canon.
Rank: E.
Type: Supplementary.
Element: None.
Range: Self.
Specialty: Ninjutsu.
Duration: -5 every other post.
Cooldown: Duration +1 post.
Description: Given all the missions ninja are assigned to--battle, intelligence gathering, diversions--this is a priceless ninjutsu. It is typically used to change into people other than oneself, but one also has the ability to change into animals, plants, and even inanimate objects like weapons; however, the object can be no smaller than 1 foot long in at least one dimension. Despite this, this technique has an abundance of uses. The transformation of a master of this technique (which is generally an Academy graduation requirement) makes the user physically and visually the same as the transformed person or object in question, giving the user the exact mass and physical qualities of whatever they transformed into. This is one of the most basic ninjutsu, as such most shinobi know how to perform it. This technique does not give a ninja the abilities or jutsu of a person they transform into, nor can give the user the damaging ability of a weapon (however, this can be used as a bluff). Sensory techniques can easily pick out someone transformed using this jutsu: the user's chakra would be active, as well as the fact that their biological functions and scent are not masked by this jutsu. Costs 5 chakra on activation, and an additional 5 chakra every other post after that.

Name: Puppet Technique (Kugutsu no Jutsu ~ 傀儡の術)
Canon/Custom: Canon.
Rank: E.
Type: Supplementary.
Element: None.
Range: 30m.
Specialty: Kugutsu.
Duration: -5 per post
Cooldown: Duration +1 post.
Description: This jutsu generates long, fibrous, malleable chakra strings from each of the user's fingers. They are partially intangible to prevent tangling; this jutsu cannot be used to bind people. The condensed chakra takes a hue of variable color depending on the user. Use of this technique on puppets is only available to those with the Kugutsu specialty. However, people without skill in Puppetry can still generate chakra strings to control weapons they have the specializations to wield, within 30m. This consists of whipping them around like a flail or yo-yo, or controlling their path of travel when thrown. Unless durability is enhanced by a separate technique, these chakra strings can be broken by any D rank technique that causes blunt force, cutting, or piercing damage.
