<strong>Mibu Tashi</strong>(http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.php?sheetid=341536)<br/><div class="floatleft">(http://i436.photobucket.com/albums/qq84/anman93/EvilAnime3.png)</div><strong>Location:</strong>Border of Fire and River country, party's camp<br/><strong>Tag:</strong>Chiyo (puppet), Kaname, Hitomi<br/><hr/><br/>Tashi watched as the woman handled the clones but the goal was achieved; Kaname was freed from the grip and from the hostage situation. Tashi however has no clue what stance woman is using (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=59634). He listened woman's words while he keenly watched Hitomi approach more friendly manner to Kaname.....his clone who was near to Hitomi heard her words and thus Tashi became aware that woman who defeated his clones was a puppet likely and that the unknown woman (Hitomi) was more up to kinder approach compared to suna shinobi.<br/><br/>It's clear that the puppet tough is superior to the clones and Tashi's most trump cards are higher ability than what clones would ever mimic and more so one of them would not have any effect at all even if he would use it. Considering that puppets do not need breathe nor they are otherwise biological entities.<br/><br/>Tashi is either has to personally get involved against the puppet....which appears more skilled than his clones anyway or keep using clones while remain hidden. Also clones are poor substitute for communications anyways as they cannot say further than sentence or two and even then not elaborate much. If he uses another clone than kage, it would dismiss all his clones which he had channeled precious chakra and life force....which would render it such waste as they are not yet in clear waters.<br/><br/>So Tashi takes careful maneuver in moving out where he is hiding and standing on behind the woman (opposite side where one his clones hide in) and speaks; "So that was the excuse which was told about that event; too inept control my own power?"<br/><br/>Once Tashi had woman's attention he held his katana in hand but in scabbard while his two clones which had not yet been defeated took short steps away from woman....forming wall between the woman and Kaname and Hitomi and holding blades ready to be used in moment's notice as Tashi talked; "Not sure should I be glad or be insulted that Suna had entirely forgot or ignored what red eyes of Mibu clan stand for, but I assure you I had entire control of my power and my intention with it was clear. Although I admit I was pushing beyond my limits and abilities. Your student's friend was lucky. Years ago suna kids asked for fight and play went to rough direction where life of a comrade was in danger....like today, and we Mibu have zero tolerance policy against such threats. Either serious or idle. If you want remember anything from Mibu, you should remember we are serious with our oaths and in regards protecting those which we had sworn to protect."<br/><br/>As Tashi stood in the edge of the clearing the puppet could see Tashi's burning eyes, his clones had also red eyes but theirs did not glow....a very subtle clue how see which target is real and which not albeit very subtle one. Also if woman had any lore regards Mibu she would know very least old saying from the clan; 'Red eyes of Mibu burn with bloodlust'. In short meaning when Mibu clan members eyes glow they are driven by rage, anger or bloodlust. Meaning they have every intent to kill whomever they are facing, even turning against fellow comrades who's eyes do not burn and thus usually Mibu clan fight together but not with anyone else because of this reason.<br/><br/>But Tashi is unusual; he is calm, cautious and not driven with blind combat frenzy what burning eyes would indicate. But his stare is tense and hard as he continues; "You can continue your search but you must do so without us nor you take anyone here hostage even if you would be capable so.<br/><br/>Our group has task to accomplish and so do you, so let's not interfere with either one. But if you press to still take hostages in hopes gaining knowledge about your quarry which may not be even known to us, I start using more serious charms to destroy your puppet and raise a ruckus which will be heard and seen to any shinobi patrol....and I am sure you do not have infinite amount of chakra to keep fighting or avoiding every Konohan patrols and thus risk failing your mission with forced retreat or face your quarry with no chakra left to fight her.<br/><br/>So cease using threats and methods which you know are not going to work for your benefit anyway. If you want knowledge, if any, you need treat us civilly like you should had done since the start. Instead taking hostages and place us into no option than either submit to your demands or try wiggle out from it and either way see you as dangerous enemy."
