Their teamwork was working! Not as much as Masami hoped it will work, but it was the first time they went on a mission. Masami had her doubts over certain aspects of it, bud decided to keep them for herself. There was time to discuss them after the mission. Narrowly dodging a stream of water from the turtle, Masami landed. She was warned by her Byakugan but the speed of the technique surprised her - this was indeed one hell of a big turtle. And weird. She was really tempted to ask Hiron-Sensei about the whereabouts of this turtle after the mission, but first things first. Stopping the turtle first - asking questions later. Something told her the answer would be ... either weird or funny. Or the combination of both. Smiling a bit, she focused on the turtle and she had an idea.

But the turtle had an idea as well and it executed it faster. Pulling back most of its body into the shell, it started spraying mud all around - and gaining quite a momentum as it approached the lake. Frowning a bit as the first projectiles of mud approached her, she realized she could deal with them using her Gentle Fist, but that was not going to stop it. A plan formulated in her mind, a bold one - and she immediately shared it via the communicator.[b]" Yes! Shikaroku, Mia - we need to make it stick out that large head of it again! Either make it angry or something! I think I will be able to land a Bottom Palm from under! Any better ideas?!"[/b] It was difficult to talk and defend at the same time, but her training routines payed off. And to prove it further, she slowly started to approach the turtle, confident in her teammates doing their share of the job.
