"What the fuck?" Sakino cried and she focused her chakra and climbed up ontop of the water.
A huge, extremely hairy Raven coloured wolf walked out from behind the waterfall...on it's hind legs with a red light illuminating at it's feet. It was followed by a second wolf. A deep rumble emitted from the first wolf and from the second a loud growl. Sakino went into battle stance, what were these things?

"Hush, now my pets." A venomis voice swum from behind the waterfall and out stepped a woman. Black hair to the knees, red eyes devilish in their sockets. She was tall and slim, intimidating. Wearing a deep red cloak with 3 silver slashes across the back...something wasn't right!

Katsuki took a step back, onto dry land. She reached for her sand pouch but she'd taken it off and left it with the rest of her stuff - up with the others. All she had was the ground beneath her feet.
"Are you a Chuunin exam contestant?"

Aiko watched in disbelief... she cringed at the womans voice... she hoped that this wasnt a contestant... or at least she wouldnt have to fight her... she shuddered and got ready to fight if necessary. Might as wel get some practice.

"We don't give out privelaged information, sorry." Sakino growled at the woman while she kept her eyes on the wolves, Sai was growling considerably loud at them as well.

The woman's smile widened. "Defensive, aren't we?" she said in a low, soft voice. "I wonder if you could keep that up if your entrails were being eaten by my precious ones, here."
Katsuki paled and took a step back. She was unconsciously reaching for the bag of sand that was not there.

"Yeah, I bet I could, considering your little chihuahuas couldn't touch us, not even if I were a disabled old crone." Fear was not an option for Sakino, she was far too headstrong and, as the stranger pointed out, defensive. She glanced around at the others all standing, some backing off a little others, like herself and Sai the dog stood their ground.
"What do you want here? Paedophilia isn't well liked in the village."

Aiko concentrated her chakra and got on top of the water and stood ground next to Sakino, she didnt know what to say. she had never been good with words so she left it and glared menacingly at the woman. One eye on her and one eye on the dogs..

*out of ideas - why is she here?*

*Maybe there is a new secret organization looking to take out the Hidden Leaf and Sand and such like to take over the world or something and they are after Katsuki as she's Gaara's daughter...? We just happen to be hidden leaf ninja so we are problems and targets at the smae time?*

*Ooh that's a good idea :) I like it*

"You," the woman said, pointing at Katsuki. "Are the Kazekage-sama's daughter, are you not?"
"That's what this is about?"

*ooo yes yes i like that idea too!! :D*

Aiko watched as the woman pointed at Katsuki, she was ready to pounce whenever, "What do you want?!" She hissed at her.

"The Kazegage's daughter has done nothing. Leave, or I will re-arrange your face and make your pets claw each other's asses up sideways!" Sakino threatened, her hand guantlets, the only weaponary she had on her at this point, made a little chiing sound as the hidden blades emerged from her wrists and extended past her fingertips.

*what are the guys doing while all this is happening? :P*

The woman ignored Sakino. She was still looking at Katsuki. "I'd like you to come with me," she said in her low, soft voice.
Katsuki instantly placed both palms onto the ground, breaking up the minerals inside the earth to make sand. The sand suddenly sprang from the ground and surrounded her. It wasn't as fast or strong as the sand she carried with her, but it had to do.

Aiko jumped next to Katsuki, and took up her Byakugan pose. her hands raised palm out ready to fight. She didnt like this woman one bit.

Michio and Toshiro had stepped infront of Aiko, their sights set on the large wolf to the right of the Nutcase. Tai and Sai were snarling at the second wolf and Tai was close to being on all fours. Isamashi had stanced himself next to Sakino. It was amazing they all remembered to 'chakrasize' their feet. It may be an idea to move the possible battle to land soon. Who was going to make the first move? Them or her...?

Suddenly, the wolves leaped forward, their big teeth flashing and snarles erupting from their throats. Taia dn Sai instantly joined battle with one, while Toshiro and Michio wrestled with the other. Ignoring them, the woman stepped forward, and threw some needles forward. Katsuki's sand moved to block them.

One of the wolves had gone straight for Aiko and she struggled to ward him off, he had no hands to do hand to hand combat. She kicked him and applied her Byakugan to his neck he fell off her and landed in the water, no chakra to support him anymore so it whimpered and swamish to the side.

Sakei looked sideways at Sakino, they teamed up in training before and he knew the signal when she twitched both eyebrows skywards. He ran towards the Woman to keep her busy. She engaged in hand to hand, making it look like childsplay. While she was distracted, Sakino pushed her left foot against the waters surface and sprung into attack, if she were quick enough she wouldn't be seen.

*Isamashii? Aren't the guys in your team called Sakei and Tai? Lol you're getting the RPs mixed up XD*

*Oh snap, I am! XD Changed!*

The fight was going well, because although the woman had her wollves, they still outnumbered her. But Katsuki could feel something behind her and raised her wall of sand on instinct to block some shuriken that had been headed strasight their way. The woman was not alone.

Aiko looked behind just in time to block a pair of hands reaching at her, she found herself looking into a pool of unusually bright blue eyes. The boy was smiling... he was maybe 15? She didn't recognize him so he must be from another village.. maybe from the same one as the woman.
She blocked him and brought him down easily, far too young she thought to herself.

(this boy is not the shuriken thrower :))

*Lolkays*

Sakino saw the Blonde boy being taken out by Aiko she smirked from the bushes above the waterfall. How she got there so fast was strange but from here she had a perfect dive point to take out the woman..

The shurikens thudded into the sand wall, which then moved aside for Katsuki to get a glimpse at her attacker. It was another boy, this one around their age if not older, wearing the same coat as the woman.

Aiko kept the boy pressed to the ground until he was completely paralysed... she had maybe taken it a little too far but she shrugged and looked around everyone was in combat. She studied every enemy, to see if she could recognize anything at all.
