Summary:
The Silence are spreading their forces across the world, and eventually they get to the Land of Earth and launch an attack on the now-reforming village.
"The Silence - Iwagakure’s Stand"
Land of Earth
In the Land of Earth, or rather near its borders, there are Silence troops storming through the area. Chaos swims around the air as they continue forth, intending to destroy whatever is in their paths. Screams and shouts of those who have lost their homes could be heard from many, but those who are ravaging the area don't care. At the head of the small army, there is an ex-ANBU from Konoha that goes by the code name Hawk. "Yuuma-sama will reward us well if we do a good job! Go all out!" comes the shout of him, mask covering his face quite hawk-like. The mob of Silence members roar and nod, looking forward to the carnage that is going to come out of this down the line.
Walking up to the edge of a cliff overlooking the area below, the Tsuchikage has taken to the lead of her troops. She has sent out calls to other villages if possible to aid near the borders of the Land of Earth. The Daimyo of Earth has personally requested that they move out here. This is where the greatest concentration of the troops of the Silence are when it comes to this area. Even as she overlooks it, a wind whips the sleeves of her jacket around behind her and she zaps a cigar that she brings to her lips and then looks around, "Form up!" She states and then points around, "Whether you are from the Land of Earth or far away, all these bastards have given us all cause to hate them. Whether because they have taken the life of someone we cared about or they betrayed our lands, they don't deserve mercy." She then pulls out a small orb even as energy starts to flow around her form as she focuses, "I'll soften them up, you lot get in there and clean up the mess. I expect nothing short of a complete decimation of this army!"
RP: Juudai transforms into BAKUTON-II.
Ryouji has the honor of attending to the tsuchikage's request to Kumogakure for troops. The Raikage didn't have many to spare so sent one of the best. Ryouji nods and looks down at the silence. He says, "They won't know what hit them." He makes a hand sign and begins gathering chakra as he begins to beatbox? "Tsuchikage of the land of earth, show me how bad you are and your worth. You go on down there and make them pay, and Ryouji will clean up and be on my way! Silence, you're prone to violence, I don't see why! If you don't give up and go home, I'll make you cry!" He pauses for a moment and considers it and laughs, "Nah, I hate that one. Bad rhyme man, bad line, throw it away." For now though, he waits for the Tsuchikage to make the first move.
Toshio just looks to these people with a look as if he didnt expect the kages to act like this. "Please when I become hokage, dont let me act like them." He mutters a silent prayer as he begins focusing stamina into chakra.
Kiji stood at the side of the gathering, representing Kiri in this gathering. She was still jsut a genin and had brought a few others with her to aid them, but she stood tall and held her head up. Her eyes, ever changing in color were golden and surrounded by a ring of orange. Along her arms was a crimson coil like a red vine grew up her arms. Long platinum hair fell down her back in a thick braid, similar to the Mizukage's hair, and her skin was pale. She wore silk black shirt and skirt over tight shorts to preserve her 'modesty' as she tended to walk upside down and up walls.
The Shimizu looked about to say something when… what the heck was that he'd just said? She peered at Ryouji, her eyes hinting at purple for a short time. Tilting her head a bit she blinked several times before turning back to the fight. Best not to ask.. She might insult Kumogakure accidently….
The Tsuchikage's words did not seem to get a huge reaction from her but she did gather her chakra abotu as she could sense the kage's energies gathering about her respectively. The coils about Kiji's arms relaxed, falling to her sides like whips… And to Juudai's call… "Kirigakure answers." She turned to glance at Kiyoshi, offered the single softening of her expression, then faced forward, preparing to fight, though any taijutsuist would probably have a fit over her fighting posture.. or rather her lack thereof….
RP: Kiji transforms into BLOOD-ENRICHMENT.
As the troops rally, they would notice that so, too, are the Silence members. And it's not too long after that they would find waves of attacks facing them off. Arrows from afar, most of them fiery in nature, come raining down on the group of those planning to defend the Land of Earth from invaders. The head of the group stands a bit of the ways behind his ranks and says, "All of you will either bow before Yuuma-sama, or die trying to refuse his reign! You have been warned of his might time and time again, and now it's time to make you see the /truth/! That this world is really rotten to the core!" It seems like the ANBU believes this all, too…

RP: Juudai uses A-RANK-CHARGE.
Alreading starting to move her hands through various handseals, the earth itself blocks the attacks coming at her, the Tsuchikage is already going through handseals and stares down at the troops below, "Rush around the edges, heard them toward the center. Do /not/ go to the center or you will die." She continues to make handseals as her orb floats up before her eyes and she stares down at the center of the troops, "I'm going to weaken their numbers and you will clean up!" She looks back as energy crackles around her, "MOve!" She then looks forward again.

Ryouji hears the arrows and blurs into his second form. Lightning crackles around his blurred edges as both lightning cutter and white lotus is pulled from their sayas. He stands his ground, flashing the blades to deflect the rain of arrows around him. One of the arrows even gets split in two to slide neatly by each side of Ryouji's head. "I slice and dice arrows out of the sky, if the silence gets near me, they're going to die!" He smiles, seeing a pause in arrows for a moment. A moment is more than enough time. Ryouji is gone, moving at a blazing speed, he zips down the cliff and across the field towards the Silence. He makes sure he follows orders and sticks to the edges of the ground. As he gets close, he reflects sunlight off his blade and into the eyes of one of the troopers before spinning and slashing with the speed of a battoujutsu attack.

Toshio grunts as two arrows hit him despite his attempts to body flicker. It stops him for a moment as he moves about the edges, avoiding that center as the big scary rock lady orders Before arriving, he forms the tiger hand seal and two more appear as they all three charge for the enemy.

Kiji listened to the shinobi respond to their leaders around them. It was good that they could rally. The ex-ANBU's little speech made her sigh and roll her eyes. Zealots, the lot of them… Well, no matter. She prepared to bring up her whips to block the first attack, only for a large sword to suddenly appear before her. She had not expected.. but she should have. She smiled faintly, remaining behind that shield as long as Kiyoshi held it there. Her whips, though, curled around about it and seemed to grow thorns.. then shot out several dozen large blood needles. Half way to the mark, they split off in a seemingly random direction.. biut no! she was attacking four at a time, aiming for their hamstrings so they could not walk even if they were hitokage…. She could sense Juudai's gathering strengtha nd as Kiyoshi watched over Kiji Kiji would watch over Juudai… She must not be interrupted….

»Geki!!«
Kiyoshi starts and shakes his head violently. The moss-haired giant has barely snapped back to full attention as the arrows begin their descent. Acting more on instinct then forethought, he slides a step over to Kiji, swinging a giant cleaver about as if it weighed no more than a feather. It would either be steel or flesh the arrows find. Only once the rain finally dies down does Kiyoshi bring the blade back about and holds it as his side.
"IDIOT! You almost got us killed!!"
Kiyoshi does not turn, but knew full well who the other shinobi nearby meant. In his haste he had nearly placed another in danger. Though he could not deny the man his words, he could still act — could still move. So, he did so, following the scarred woman's orders almost instinctively by rushing along the fringes. When ready, his blade is sent flying ahead of him, decapitating or maiming whoever was too slow to move in time.

The Silence gets swept through quite easily by the shinobi forces, many of them falling to Kiyoshi and Kiji as they rain blood and blows against them. One man who thought he was free of the fray is blinded suddenly by something, then finds himself dead as a doornail thanks to Ryouji, and his head is cleanly away from his body. However, the Silence is no small force (which may or may not be a good thing…). They continue to rush forward in waves upon waves while the general stays back and watches carefully, trying to figure out just who is strong enough for him to face off against. "Ninjutsuists, ready yourselves. We'll be raining fire upon the enemy in short order."
Standing on the cliff's edge, even as she stands there, she is prepared to unleash her defenses when blood whips move before her and without even looking she states, "Well, done, Kirigakure." She then looks down at the group and the orb before her stops spinning as she finishes her last seal. It the flies forth toward the enemy, "Explosion Style: Thermobaric Blast." It's stated so calmly and as soon as the orb is on its way, she pulls her hands up to her lips to pull her cigar free and blows out some smoke.
A moment later, the orb explodes right above the enemy. The explosion is rather…lack luster. For only but a second the army they are against and anyone watching simply sees a blast of mist flow out from the bomb. The mist, not even really smoke and by no means dense, opens up over a huge area. Right in the middle of this mist a small orb, no bigger than a marble falls down and taps the head of one extremely unlucky (or perhaps very lucky depending on your opinion of a quick death).
Even as this happens, Toujitakumi Juudai turns away from the enemy and puts her cigar back in her mouth, "The rest are yours." Her jacket and hair billows only a moment later.
The reason for this billowing is as the marble hits it flashes and the mist ignites. Soldiers don't even get an opportunity to scream as a shockwave of fire and force flow out over the army like a tsunami. Matter and mass simply liquify against the force, being reduced to naught but ash near the center. The whole of the mist is gone in an instant as the fire flows upward and outward, lighting much on fire and leaving the earth scorched clean.

RP: Ryouji uses B-RANK-CHARGE.
Ryouji tries to back away from the attacking silence force, but he's cut and hit hard from two spear thrusts from two of them. Ryouji shifts into his next blur form and disappears, reappearing a short distance away as he makes several hand signs saying, "I'm all warmed up now!" Chakra swirls around Ryouji as he collects it on his downturned hand, but a technique like this will take a bit to charge.

Toshio tries to flicker again only to be knocked aside once more, slashed again and again and even a third time. Still the genin forms more hand seals and two more clones fly forward to try and take out some more of the enemies, the explosion rocking him forward with an ack from him.

Kiji did not wait for the aqttacks to come to her. She had been watching for those attacks aimed at the focused kage. She lifted her hand and moved, her whips defending the woman with prescision. Two more had sprouted from Kiji's back to defend herself even as she ddefended the kage. She kept her attention on the silence mostly, though.
Those that fell to her senbon were watched closely to see if they could get back up.. and then the Tsuchikage released her attack. The name was spoken softly enough that Kiji turned to peer up at the woman before her, the words registering in time for her to snap her head back and view the destruction. Instantly her eyes flickered as she located Kiyoshi, made certain he was out of the blast area. Then she nodded her head to Juudai. "Kirigakure Answers."
Then the girl took off, heading straight for the leader, her eyes shading to crimson as the blood within her sang…. Her whips came up and struck out at him, looking to hit him, pin him to the ground, her blood, if it hit, would pierce him and enter the ground… Kirigakure did not hesitate.

COMBAT: Kiyoshi loses the roll and sustains 675 damage.
RP: Kiyoshi transforms into GOBI-PARTIAL-RELEASE.
The Moto neither grins nor show admiration to his enemy before him. On any other day, perhaps, but not today. Kiyoshi couldn't spare the focus even if he had any to do so. He just kept on moving and noting things as they happened, snatching up his blade along the way. He only pauses once, and that is from the sound of Juudai's explosion nearly defeaning him. Whenever the ringing finally stops Kiyoshi rises from the forced kneel dazed for a few extra moments, remaining vulnerable. An easy target for the silence… if not for Kokuo.
Flesh bleaches and hardens until little to nothing can penetrate it. Even if something should manage to pierce his flesh, the flash of pain would only motivate the giant to react that much more quickly, and more fiercly. His blade is once more taken up and sweeped around wide in a wide arc. Either they moved, or were disembowled. The truly unfortunate ones might even wind up cut cleanly in half. Kiyoshi paid only those that survived and seemed determined to continue standing his way any mind before allowing his gaze to drift across the battlefield. Seeing Kiji press forward, Kiyoshi again acted thoughtlessly by rushing to join her side again.
Unknowingly, Kokuo's influence grew until his eyes matched that of the beast…

COMBAT: Rockpath loses the roll and sustains 1285 damage.
Many of the Silence members that had charged in recklessly head-first are downed by the beasts of Kirigakure. Kiji's blood control allowed her to trap and kill one of the members easily, and Kiyoshi was able to knock down a number of enemies thanks to the fact that … well, he had the beast within him assisting his battle ferocity. For now, everything was clear… No attacks were forthcoming from the battlefield. However, Hawk and the ninjutsuists still remained. "Hold… Aim… Fire when you will. I'll take that one," he states, finger pointing at Juudai when he says such. Then it starts raining fire upon the group. Small bullets, but still fire. Hawk takes a moment to gather chakra, then disappears with a burst of speed.

COMBAT: Rockpath drains stamina from Juudai
Turning around quickly, the Tsuchikage attempts to throw up a dome of Earth at high speed when the man comes in only to have him burst through it and slam her right in the gut. She drops to a knee from the strike and winces, coughing. She isn't heavily hurt, but the speed of the strike locks up her limbs as she is paralyzed by the strike for a moment. Looking up at the man, she glares at him, not yet able to speak as her jacket falls off and lands behind her.

Still, the Genin doesnt give up, more fire clones for all! "I am Kataras Toshio and I am going to become the future hokage!" The clones yell as they charge.

Kiji glowered as some random infidel leapt up to defend his leader. Or was just plain stupid. Either way the man she was after slipped away. and landed a hit ont he Tsuchikage. She swore lightly and leapt up, heading straight for Juudai as she stared at Hawk defiantly. She gathered her strength and wove together two of her whips, adding a huge spike at the end of it and aimed to nail Hawk — literally— to the side, defending Juudai. As she turned to try and help Juudai, one of the arrows struck her arm and cut her, though it left little impression on her face and the blood simply joined it's fellows. "Tsuchikage." She held out her hand….

COMBAT: Kiyoshi takes 861 partial damage.
Kiyoshi tries to maintain a steady pace, but evey once in a while there was some new exchange to between fights to avoid. He growls absently at every interruption, and yet doesn't bulldoze right on through. Kiyoshi was tired and reckless, but not stupid. Then, the sky began to rain fire…
A louder growl tumbled past the Moto's lips as goes from a measured run to a charge through the crimson rain. Again, what should've met flesh only scorches his top or heat up his blade. While he cannot claim complete success, the pain was… negligiable. At the last moment, Kiyoshi changes his target from hawk to the ninjutsu still lingering nearby. A leap carries him the last few meters, and again his blade is swept about with the purpose slashing all that stood before him in one go.

Kiyoshi comes wreaking havoc and terror through the ranks of the ninjutsuists now, many of them falling to his claws. Only a few remained, and those alive decided to flee their demise. Also, Kiyoshi is just absolutely terrifying in his current form… How many long-ranged attackers would try to go head-to-head against him? Hawk wasn't expecting for Kiji to be so… Persistent. He was getting ready to attack the Tsuchikage when suddenly something pierced his side. He flinches, coughing and noticing blood on his tongue. The man turns his head to glare at Kiji, watching as the woman yanks Juudai free from her paralysis and summons his chakra so that wind would blaze across the two with slicing strikes. Some of the dead bodies begin to reform with the darkness of the Hitokage and start taking slashes at Kiyoshi, but there's not much they can do with half-bodies…

Even as the wind comes in, Juudai is hit but is able to pull herself up and frowns as she looks at the cuts on her person. The rocks were able to come up and block the second attack but she is hurt and that is clear. She licks her lips softly and then nods her head, "Alright." She then looks to Kiji and then at the man, "Hurt him but I'm going to be the one to kill him." She then idly pulls out a kunai and looks at it idly in her hand before she pulls out another.

"Let me go and I will kick your butts back over the moon!" He yells as he tries to fight back, but in truth, his is converting more stamina to chakra.

Kiji did indeed help Juudai to her feet, but then Hawk would find out that there was a reason turning her back wasn't as dangerous to her as it would be to others… The two whips at her back snapped out, spinning so fast that it created a counter wind, cancelling out the other. Juudai would get a first hand look at the Mizukage's 'adopted one' as her eyes went completely black. No white, no color, even the sclera turned as soulless black as the dead of a moonless night. She spoke in a tone and gave off the pheremones of rage. Her voice practicly thrummed. "Silence." And the two back whips spiked once more aiming for him.. just barely missing his heart at the last moment.. barely. Juudai was ordering her to concentrate during a time when she was thrumming with blood lust….
COMBAT: Kiyoshi counters against a PHYSICAL-III(45) attack from Rockpath with a ABSOLUTE-PROGRESS…54
Kiyoshi is as merciless to the dead as he was to the living. Those that managed to get within range wind up skewered upon his talons. Gore, blood, and whatever else was infused into them splatter out of the back. Seeing as how he had to abandon his weapon in order to strike back, Kiyoshi would turn the remains into makeshift bludgeons. Weapons he immediatly turns upon Hawk with wide sweeps after knocking aside one last undead's attempt at striking him down using his new weapons. The display of raw power and mercilessness is unheard of from the giant from where he came from. And yet, that is exactly what he brought to bear with eyes promising death. Short of a shield or some other 'unfortunate' circumstances, Kiyoshi refuses to give pause except at a scent hovering in the air. He doesn't turn to the source despite the urgings within, but his concentration begins to dip.. just a little.

Kiyoshi would find that many of his attacks were able to press through the Hitokage and make them stay down. The energy they had left them. It was not because of the battle miles and miles away from here had gone well, but because the spirits were required for just that thing. Kiri's blood tails would fail as somehow Hawk was able to block the attack, but then he was attacked by… corpses??? He collapses for the time being, lightning starting to surge around his body as he gathers his strength. Toshio's clones were able to incinerate the last of the bodies, ensuring they would not rise again.

Watching the others for a moment, Juudai nods to Kiji, "Thank you for your assitance." She then brushes herself off for a moment as she watches how things go for Hawk. She stares at him for a moment and hten shakes her head, "You won't get a chance to act again." She shakes her head, "Now do the whole world a favor and die." She throws one kunai to try to land it right between his legs and the other is flung next aiming right for his chest. She then steps between the man and Kiji to say, "Cover your eyes." And almost immediately the first kunai explodes with sound and light even as the second kunai explodes even before it would hit Hawk's chest. She reaches out, doesn't even watch the results as she put sa hand to Kiji's shoulder, "Gather up some of my troops and go around slitting throats, so to speak. Seperate head from body. We don't need anymore standing back up." And with that she will turn away and point at another Iwagakure troop, "You and your troops are with him." She points down toward Kiyoshi, "Help him finish off anything that is getting back up."
Toshio grunts as he gets the bodies off of him, and looks about. "We did it…We won." He says as he pats himself down. "And I am still alive!" He says with a laugh. "Oh man Hige-san will be so jealous!" He says with a big grin. He then looks to the others and calms himself. "Excuse me. I am Sorry for not being able to help as much as I would have like." He says sincerely.
Kiji blinked as she was told to cover her eyes, but obeyed instinctively…. She could feel the flash even then, but when she finallyopened her eyes to hear the orders from the Tsuchikage she stood up and nodded. Whips took on a bladed edge and she went about severing and to sever. a blood bath and without her own blood. How novel… She finally stopped once the bodies were just that… bodies.. and she stood there, staring at the dismembered body before her… The black drained slowly from her eyes and she panted lightly before her knees gave out underneath her….
Hawk has fallen, and yet still Kiyoshi loomed over the fallen man, waiting for the moment for one last ditch effort to try and strike back. After a few tension filled moments his breathing finally begins to return to normal. At which point, the Kirryu discards his macabre weapons to the side, and would start to crouch down. He barely manages to scramble away in time to avoid getting blown up along with Hawk. It takes a few moments for him to find the source, but by then, he's being directed to do clean up work. His hands — claws are balled up into tight fists at his side. Ultimately, a very much drained Kiyoshi would obey the order, though only after rescuing Kiji from a rather painful meeting with the ground.
"Hmph… You did well, Chi-hime.." He says, managing to sound both pleased and mildly annoyed. Immediatly after, Kiyoshi uplifts her into his arm, and would spend however long it took crushing the skulls of the undead beneath his feet.
COMBAT: Kiyoshi heals kiyoshi for 669 with LESSER REGENERATION.
Most of the Silence have fallen or fled. The Silence, seeing as they have not heard so much as a squeak from Iwagakure, did not send their best troops, it seems, as they were defeated so easily by the combination of the different villages. With many of the forces destroyed, Iwagakure could relax, and peole could either return to their respective villages or attempt to find more Silence members that are about and alive…
