Toshi would look up into the corner of his eye. "Tsch...." He'd spin quickly around and drop to one knee, then run through seven hand signs as if he was racing to save the world. If Mei could follow his hands, she'd see: Tiger, Dog, Ram, Tiger, Dragon, Bird, Snake. He'd then shift his weight backwards, holding an arm out in front of him, bracing it with his elbow at the other. With one finger outstretched on his hand, he'd close one eye and aim for a messenger bird that was flying in. "Explosion Release: Blasting Cap!" In an instant, a half inch wide beam of a brilliant red explosion would erupt from his finger at high speeds. It'd perfectly pierce the rope that held the message and then dissipate into nothing. The bird would fly off, startled beyond belief. Toshi himself would walk over and grab the message that dropped a few feet away, read it, then pocket it with a sigh.<br/>"Well, looks like another village was attacked just 15 minutes ago. Near the border of the Land of Rivers and the Land of Wind.... "<br/>He'd turn and immediately start walking in that direction, He couldn't believe he let someone literally get right past him.
