Malacanth's first taste of full on combat was truly a hellish sight. puppets were everywhere and not the good kind either. The worst part about these puppets was the fact that they had no puppeteer nearby. They were like zombies, no way to stop their tireless destruction. The few shinobi around him were scared to say the least. The last couple of hours have been nothing but tireless destroying of the puppets before they got too the patients. Evacuation was almost impossible as they would be attacked as soon as they made a move to escape. One more reason why he hated people who depended on others. Perfection was in pristine condition so far but he had no idea how much longer this would last as this seemed to be only a scouting force and a larger wave had been reported closing in. The allied forces had no leadership here and this would most likely become a bloodbath, luckily for Malacanth thats how he wants it. His own clothing was less than pristine though. His lab coat had received some tears to it and grime and dirt covered him as the battle had forced him into some rather uncomfortable positions.
He had a couple of minutes of rest though, which is good considering Perfection could use some maintenance. The area he had taken a break in was what could have been called one of the exterior walls of the hospital. Now it stood broken and battered as the initial attack hit hard. Debris littered the field and bodies mingled among them. Wood was everywhere from the puppets, mingled with the blood of shinobi who had given their lives for a pointless cause. He sat on some of the debris, splattered with blood, As he watched for sign of enemy movement he thought for a second where the hell was Hotaru. They had been separated in the fighting and it set in uneasily that he could possibly be dead. He had grown somewhat attached to the guy and would need to find him, to at least preserve his body to make some use of it if for nothing else. He whispered to himself as the puppets came over the horizon " guess I might die here, never thought it would be so quick ......" This pointless war would end him was his thoughts but he would not go down easily. Perfection had not reached a state of perfection so work was still needed. He couldn't possibly think of giving up before then. Luckily for him the other shinobi still seemed determine to throw their lives away for the cause which would make his job considerably easier. The army on its way though could prove to much even for the shinobi here though. They had no central command to speak of as the communication lines had been broken and messengers had stopped making trips here. " Well, guess they lost hope for us." as the puppet army grew closer.
