The Encounter
( Radio crackles )

- Torune : "Hello, anyone there. This is Iwagakure squads eight and fifteen. We are under attack and require immediate assistance.

There are atleast thirty five enemy ninja surrounding us. For the moment, we are safe as they believe we are in large numbers but this will not keep them away for long. Please, any allies in the immediate area must assist."

( Radio crackles. -- enters room )

- -- : "Torune! I think they've discovered our ruse. They've put up a smoke screen and are advancing towards us. What the hell do we do? Ahhhhhhh, we're gonna die here aren't we. Like miserable dogs."

- Torune : "Calm down --. You're a jonin, act like one. What will the genin do if they see you like this. They depend on us for courage."

- -- : "Sorry. Alright, I'm fine. What are the orders?"

- Torune: "Firstly, where are the genin and what is the distance of the smoke from us?"

- -- : "They are trying to clear the smokescreen but its really thick, it'll take some time for them to clear it fully. The smoke's a couple of metres from us and its advancing fast."

- Torune : "Not good. Okay. Try to assist the genin as you can. When you notice any activity in the smoke, alert me. I'll be here with the radio."

- - : "Alright. I'm on it."

( -- leaves )

- Torune : "Hmph. We're too far out. The signal isn't strong enough. I need to boost it somehow.

............... I got it!"

( Takes out metal kunai and attaches it to radio wires )

- Torune : "Lightning Style: Stinging Touch!"

( Radio buzzes to life )

- Torune : "Yes, it worked! Attention, Iwagakure squads eight and fifteen here. We are trapped in co-ordinates eight-seven, twenty and are surrounded by over thirty five enemy units. We have no idea of their skill level or equipment and they have released smoke all around our bunker. We have no idea of their locations or plans. Please respond."

( A few minutes pass by idly )

- -- : "We have recieved your SOS Iwa squads eight and fifteen. Three teams from the vicinity are currently heading towards your location. Hold tight.

- Torune : "Yes, thank you, Torune out. --, our message has gone through. Three squads are coming to save us. Tell the genin."

- -- : "Finally, good news. I'll tell them right away."

( Through the door leading to his space he could hear happy shouts of joy which were quickly hushed. Suddenly out of the smoke cames several kunai with paper bombs attached headed straight for the teams holdout )

- - : "Watch out! Paper bombs, get down!"

- - : "Earth Release: Earth Encampment Wall!"

( Out of the earth rose a giant slab of rock and hardened mud. The kunai meant for the Iwa teams slammed against the wall and exploded, with the full force of the blast absorbed by the wall which still stood" )

- -- : "Oh, thank you sir. You saved us."

- -- : "That is my duty as an Iwa jonin and as a team leader."

( Torune emerged from his space worried )

- Torune : "Is everybody okay, anyone hurt?"

- -- : "No sir, we're all fine thanks to --."

- Torune : "Good job -- but we're not safe yet. I think it'll be a while before help arrives so we'll have to hold up until then."

- --- : "No problem sir. We're both powerful jonin and these kids are handy. We can take anything those fools dish out."

- Torune : "Well atleast you're confident, someone has to be."

( Elsewhere, in Iwagakure, the Tsuchikage discusses the current situation of the teams eight and fifteen )

- -- : "What is their current status of the rescue team?"

- -- : "They are on route towards the squads."

- -- : "Who are these attackers and how did the two squads encounter them?"

- -- : "Our spies have filled in the patches of information we were missing. The attackers are Kirigakure ninja.They managed to sneak through our patrols last night. We believe their original target was our village, possibly for an assasination or sabatoge mission of some sort but they mistakenly encountered squad eight. The squad put up a good fight but had to retreat. They sent out a signal flare and since squad thirteen was the only squad in the vicinity of the flare, only they responded. Both the teams fought but were forced further outside and eventually far enough that our radio signals could'nt reach them. So their headpieces were useless and they could'nt contact backup. They made their way further out until they came across one of our old abandoned training bunkers from the days of the last war. They put up a resistance there by, judging from current information, decieving the enemies that there were several Iwa ninja in the bunker which kept them off. That's all we got so far. We aren't sure how they managed to contact us, but by guesswork, we believe that they managed to super power some of the old radios in those bunkers, enhancing the signal enough to contact some of the outer squads."

- --- : "Good. You've managed to piece together the information. Alright, I want these Kiri ninja captured alive. If not all, one at the minimum. I want them interrogated and every bit of information they have regarding their alliance and village's plans and secrets on my desk by morning."

- --- : "Yes Lord Tsuchikage." ( Back at the bunker )

- --- : "The smokes clearing. What the. The Kiri ninja aren't there. Where the hell did they go?"

- Torune : "They must be stalking out somewhere. I bet the smoke screen was just to cover up what they were doing. Okay, we gotta be at full alert right now. They could spring at any moment."

( Five tense minutes pass with the Iwa teams expecting immediate attack )

- --- : "Ohhh, this damn tension is killing me. Why don't they attack already. If they don't, we'll die because of the bloody anticipation."

- --- : "Hey guys, why is there a puddle of water on the floor. The place was dry when we arrived, wasn't it? Did someone knock over something."

( Everyone turns to stare at  )

- --- : "Hey! I might be clumsy normally but not during mission time. During missions, I'm as graceful as a gazel and as balanced as a block of wood. I did'nt knock over any water. Besides, none of us had water with us or in the bunker anyway, so there was nothing to knock over."

- --- : "If that's true, where the hell did the puddle come from?"

( Torune's eyes widen as a revelation happens upon him )

- --- : "Everyone, move away from the water!"

( Suddenly the puddle rises and many different human like forms start to appear one after the other )

- --- : "Hehehe, too late. We've got you now, nowhere else to run."

- Torune : "Oh,its not too late yet. Fire Style: Inferno Palm!"

( Most of the Kiri ninja manage to dodge, but others who had'nt fully formed from the puddle where evaporated in seconds )

- : "No! We were just going to kill you before but now, we'll capture you, interogate you and then slowly torture you to death."

- Torune
