[center][h3][I][b]Raikō Engai Interior[/b][/I][/h3][/center] Walking ahead of Nobushige the two continued to communicate in silence. They had been informed as to whom they were dealing with in vague terms and had been instructed to bring the man in. While not required to utilize handseals and while they weren't members of the Kanagata clan, the shinobi were nonetheless capable of some of the clan's jutsu. This was largely due to the physical augmentations that their leader had applied to them. At times their bodies ached, but it was never too terrible, and the benefits outweighed the discomfort. Turning a corner and walking past several outcropping on their path within the dome, they intentionally allowed the man chances to slip away. What Nobushige didn't know, though, was that it wouldn't matter. [hr][center][h3][I][b]Raikō Engai Perimeter[/b][/I][/h3][/center] Suddenly detecting heat signatures, and soon after, bio-electricity, the shinobi mobilized. However, they weren't fast enough as flames washed over eighteen of their men, engulfing them. Dust, smoke, and dirt were brought up by their enemy's maneuver, causing something of a smoke screen. Taking advantage of the lowered visibility, and knowing the woman could detect them due to her uncanny aim, the others struck forth. The four elites each hovered high into the air and gazed down at the scene, analyzing how best to deal with the one, no, [i]two[/i] individuals attempting a strike operation against their mistresses observatory. Meanwhile, while the four elites fed sensory information back to their comrades via their communication technique, the other six shinobi strode forth, running towards the tree line. Three of them summoned several black rods and launched them forwards, the rods lengthening into 3 meter long poles before they struck the ground, piercing into it. Immediately the magnetic field expanded. Two of the other three shinobi attempted to circumvent the Uchiha, heading for Shirayuri and sending of barrages of lightning from their location 6 meters to Mayumi's right. The remaining shinobi wreathed herself in lightning, drew a black rod and refined it, turning it into a thin almost ovular construct with sharp points on two ends. The black object was 2.5 meters from point to point and two feet across at its widest. Small spikes formed on the outer surface and static electricity gathered and then erupted forth around the construct. The air around it rapidly began heating up as it floated in alignment with the woman's left forearm. All the while she hadn't weaved any handseals, and neither had any of the others. The flames had caught on the ground where they had struck, but weren't spreading due to the sparse vegetation. There was still enough smoke and fire that you couldn't see any corpses. [hr][center][h2][color=#534730][U][B]Heirana, Shirayuri[/B][/U][/color][/h2][/center][hr] Nodding at Mayumi's words, Shirayuri summoned both her weapons to her, each yari appearing in its respective hand. Taking in a deep breath she began sending off much stronger vibrations of chakra, slightly disrupting the path of any electricity within two meters of her person. Channeling chakra into one of her yari in an intentional manner, rather than a passive one, she let herself slide, bracing her body, and cocking her arm back in one smooth motion, before launching the weapon into the air like a javelin. It flew forth and pierced the ground two meters in front of Mayumi and the moment it did so 12 spires of earth shot up from the ground at her right, blocking all of the lightning bolts rather neatly. The electricity was thus grounded, sent straight into the ground where it was diffused. Shirayuri's chakra poured out of the yari and into the ground, creating a well of itself, which moved into a circle and extended small tendrils to connect to Mayumi. As such it was bound to her, allowing Mayumi to move, and the circle of chakra in the ground to follow her movements to stay in position. The kunoichi then shifted her attention, having already pushed off into a run once more. She headed for the nearest rod, one of the ones that had newly been erected. It was 6 meters from her, but she'd cover that ground rather quickly. They had to disable them, whatever they did. When she got the chance she'd ask Mayumi, but for the moment they both needed to focus.
