[center][h1][color=Gold]Akio Tendou[/color][/h1][/center] [i]We still could've done something you quivering waste of space.[/i] Akio cursed the Hyuuga in her head for being a spineless coward, but she held her tongue, not wanting to add to the chaos erupting around her. Emotions were running high in this small group of shinobi, leading Akio to believe that the siblings had probably exoected a more unified acceptance than they had recieved. Either way, this coup was going to posdible divide Konoha in two between those who support Ayame and those against her. Before the Tendou could think on this more, however, she shivered upon hearing Aoi's solemn condemnation of the Inuzuka's actions. In fact, the change in Aoi's demeanor in general was slightly unnerving to witness, as she'd never seen her act like this before. As her lover brought her up to the front wuth Daiki and Yamato, Akio simply stood there,mthe rain coming down heavily to siak her as she stared at Aoi. Hugging herself, she turnedbher attention towards Ayame, hearing her speak of her itteration of the Will of Fire had done nothing to sway the Tendou in her favor. Words were cheap and easy to manipulate, but actions were harder to hide. More than anything else, Akio had a problem with how they handled this situation and how they killed the Hokage, as well as them trying to push the values of Amegakure into Konoha citizens, the major indicator being the jutsu being used at this very moment. [i]I don't like this, not one single bit . . . but it doesn't matter what I think. I'm not near strong enough to take her down, nor is anyone else in the village that would go against her. Not to mention she has the 11th corp and Fuji on her side, and that makes her untouchable at this very moment. But she won't always be.[/i] As the Tendou stared at the woman who'd be there new kage, she felt something stirrong inside her, the golden sheen of her eyyes seeming to shine ever so slightly as they focused on Tsukiko-nee, hearing her request. "Could you use a partner, Tsukiko-nee, cause I think I'll need to get a few things out of my system as well." While not a lie, Akio really just wanted to get away from the village. Too much, too fast, and it hurt to see people turn on each other so fast. Daiki's treatment of the Inuzuka in particular, had caught her attention and disapproval. The Tendou girl turned to Aoi, the shine gone from her eyes as she looked a little worried by the rapid shift in her girlfriend's behavior. "Aoi, would you like to join? I can think of a few ways to put that goo of yours to good u-Ahh, What the fuck?" Akio question as the ground suddenly got really hot for some reason. [center][color=DarkOrange][h1]Tatsuya Kajiya-Terumi[/h1][/color][/center] As even more chaos erupted around, Tatsuya only felt a fleeting sense of relief from Yuna's actions. But as the event seemed to be cooling off, Daiki suddenly brought thinks back up a bit by attacking his own comrades like a rabid hound. For those left, it was probably just something to look on and shake your head at, but to Tatsuya, it was just enough to push him over the edge. His head down and his sword gripped tightly in one of his hands, he stepoed forward in slow, methodical pace from the back of the group. As he did so, everyone would notice two things. First, the ground would seem to roll underneath them, as if something was moving underneath them, and second, the ground would become very, very hot, to the point where if you stood near Tatsuya for too long it'd become painful. His emotional state was causing his Kekkei Genkai to flare up, and while he was trying to keep it under control, by the time he was in front of the stage, he had started to leave molten footprints in the ground. There he stood for a while, his body visibly shaking as he opened and closed hus mouth several times. Just when it seemed like he was just going to stand there, he brought his head up, glaring at the two siblings with a maddened rage. "You know nothing of the Will of Fire," He shouted in a rahe as he lifted up his sword to point it at them, the rain creating a thin veil of steam around him as it made contact with the heated ground surroundung him."So don't you dare try and preach that it's been misinterpreted. To follow the Will of Fire is to not seek out and create conflict, but to always be ready to fight it when it appears, to fight with as much honor, dignity, and pride as you can in this hellhole of a world. Konoha isnthe blazing flame in this world of darkness, a beacon to those who care about such things. That is the ideal of the Will of Fire, and did to the Hokage is a spit in the face of this villages history." Tatsuya had no idea why he was saying the things he was saying, all but challenging the people who had just murder the Hokagee and had killed him in such a brutal fashion, but he couldn't stop himself. It was like his rage had taken a mind of it's own, directing his actions and words without a care for the consequences. As he spoke out, lava would begin to bubble up around him, casting an intense glow on his features and causing even more steam. "You say you killed the Hokage for the good of the village, but if that were truth, why would you end him in a way that was sure to cause such division amongst the people, why go out of your way to make him appear weak and humiliate him. You could've killed him at any time, and with more dignity than he was given, but you wanted the last image we have of him is him dying a dog's death. You say you'll lead us to power, but do you wish for us to undermine the very core of our pride as Konoha shinobi to do so? Is it worth it to become what those before strove to get rid of a prevent?" As he came to the end of his rant, Tatsuya's lava radiate such intense amounts of heat in accordance with his anger that it would force most back and char the wood of the platform. "You may be right in saying that we will accept you as our leader now, but no Konoha Shinobi with even an inkling of true pride will ever call you Hokage. You've done nothing to earn or deserve the title." And with those final words, Tatsuya took a deep breath and let it go, the Lava solidifying into rock around him. As suddenly as it had came, the anger that had pushed him this far had left him, Ketsui becoming heavy in his hand, so he let it swing down to his side. He knew that he should probably be scared right now, of dying, torture or what ever happens to those who so vehemently oppose their leaders, but he was just too tired and drained to care. "So, Leader-San, what the hell happens now?"
