Obscurity of The Flames

It was another hazy day in the Land of Water. In a small town in the outskirts of Kirigakure, all was not silent. The sound of sirens screamed throughout the town as the local police force arrived at the scene of a crime. "A bank robbery sir." one policeman reported to the chief who had just arrived. "Another ambitious son of a bitch eh?", he said, speaking as if this were a common crime that happened every other day. Taking a moment to respond, the reporting officer followed, "Uhh, no sir. Our man inside said that it's a group of civilians who suddenly took arms, and threatened to kill everyone unless they were given ALL the money in the bank."

Inside the bank were more than fifteen random people who seemed to have no relationship with one another but were acting as one organized group. In order to prevent any heroic acts, those behind the counter were pierce by several kunai, though nothing fatal. Several of them remained outside surveying the hostages, while others began to were breaking into the vaults to load the cash.

Back outside the officers outside began to request for shinobi from Kirigakure. Upon coming to the conclusion that their targets were clearly influenced through unnatural means, it was clearly out of their league. "How long till they get here?" the chief demanded feeling the pressure. "Ten minutes sir." he spat cautiously, knowing well that was not the answer his boss wanted to hear. "Well shit, by that time the real thief will probably be long gone."
