Tracking the small group of bandits was simple as long as she kept herself hidden in the shadows that the thick forest provided. Of course, Shinobu had to put in a bit of extra effort in order to keep her footsteps and general movements silent. So far, she went by unnoticed. She let herself linger behind them, far enough that she could move comfortably without alerting them of her presence. She lost track of time as she followed them, but she soon found herself in front of a large mansion. She watched the four shinobi walk inside with her possessions. Part of her debated whether or not she should imply barge in through the front door or keep the stealth.
Remaining hidden was complicated and bothersome, but it had its rewards. Not to mention the fact that she knew nothing of who or what lay behind those gates… She was outnumbered, but she didn’t know by how many. Then again, Shinobu had always been one for flashy entrances. Not only that, but she was cocky enough to think she could fare well against the criminal group. After all, she did want to collect a bounty. And if worse came to worse, she could always flee. She had never had any qualms with that as long as it ensured her survival. Decisions, decisions…
Shinobu flipped the one coin that remained in her pocket. If it landed on heads, she would barge in, if it landed on tails, she would take a stealthier approach. She watched the coin do several flips in the air before she caught it in her fist. She lifted her hand from the small piece of copper and smiled underneath her mask. Great. Barging in it was.
Without further ado, Shinobu simply stepped out of the shade. She pulled Sabaku no Bara – a simple katana – from its sheath. She pointed the tip of the sword to the center of the gate. “Yami no Katana: Goin’a,” she whispered simply. She felt the all familiar burst of chakra through her arms. It tensed her muscles slightly, stiffening them until she got used to the sensation. Shinobu walked up to the gate, sword in hand, and simply swung her blade without much effort. The gates collapsed. It sounded as if they had imploded. As they fell, a large cloud of dust rose from the area, hiding the young woman’s form.
At this point, of course, all of the bandits in the near vicinity had been alerted of her presence. Hm… it was best not to kill them. She didn’t know if the bounty mentioned that they be turned in alive or not. Best to keep it safe and knock them out for safe transport later. Taking advantage of the dust cloud, Shinobu activated the sharingan that lay dormant behind her see through eye patch. It allowed her to see the silhouettes of the shinobi around her. It was simple to sneak up on them and knock them out with a well-placed hit from the hilt of her sword. The dust cloud soon, dissipated however, revealing a great number of the shinobi. The former Kazekage held her stance. “Now let’s see how many of you prove to be a challenge. It’s been a while since I had anything to sharpen my sword with,” she said, sounding entertained. A smile crossed her lips as she saw the shinobi charge towards her. She wondered if their leader would show up soon, and if so, what would he do?
