Sano uses his Shunkan Idou to follow Sasuke's path.
He also appears on the center of the ship.
SANO: "....hm, nice ship...."
He uses his Bukujutsu to hover over the ship to get a full view of the small fleet.
SANO: "....it's a pity... The Morimoto Armada isn't as strong as it used to be."
He lands gently back on the ship.
COMMANDER: "Sanosuke... I need to have a word with you in private...."
SANO: "...Not much privacy here, you know."
COMMANDER: "Well aware of that. Use your Shunkan Idou for a moment, please."
Sano and the Commander vanish.
CAPTAIN: "Hm..."
The Captain wanders the deck looking at Sasuke.
CAPTAIN: "There's work t' be done, kid. Why not help th' cooks in th' Galley for a while. Help them get some grub out here."
The captain walks away and heads back to the bridge.

Sasuke glanced over at the Captain, and shrugged. So, he wandered off down into the Galleys. He glanced about. A cook glanced over at him.
Cook: "Hey there, down here to give us a helpin' hand, eh?"
Sasuke nodded slightly, looking around the room.
Cook: "Cookin' ain't suited for a soldier, we can manage with what we have. But, wanna try lightin' this stove for me?"
Sasuke glanced over, apparantly the matches wouldn't do it, maybe the cook thought Sasuke would have better luck. Instead, he pulled down his mask, and lit the stove with a bit of fire ninjutsu. As usual, no one was able to view his face during this time.

As they move closer to the shores, a small boat approaches from behind.
RYUUSEI: "....hm?"
CAPTAIN: "Oh, it's ok. That's one of our field messengers."
RYUUSEI: "Right... lower the ropes for him then."
Moments later the messenger boards the ship.
MESSENGER: "Shogun! We have interesting news concerning Ryoko!"
RYUUSEI: "Go ahead."
MESSENGER: "We have reports of a blue-haired devil wreaking havoc on the Hokage Troops located in Ryoko. Not one of them survived the attack."
RYUUSEI: "...blue-ha....but I thought he was dead?"
He says this to no one in particular.
RYUUSEI: "How is Ryoko?"
MESSENGER: "Most of it is still intact, but that devil busted up a decent amount for being alone. I mean, he single-handedly killed about 120 Hokage Troops... that is quite impressive."
RYUUSEI: '...how strange...'
MESSENGER: "We've also learned that the devil is on his way to Dead Man's Route."
RYUUSEI: "Hm? That's not good.... we have troops on thier way there now."
MESSENGER: "Perhaps the devil is an ally?"
RYUUSEI: "Not if it's the one I'm thinking of...."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Elsewhere, in a valley not far from Ryoko, that blue-haired devil has his hand wrapped tightly around the throat of a Hokage Commander.
MASH: "Fool! Did your leader think that just because he brought me back I'd sever HIM? I SERVE NO ONE!"
COMMANDER: "Gurk!"
MASH: "...Heh heh heh...Hah hah hah... Not back-talking me, are you? Hah hah... Fine then! Have it your way... I'll let you go..."
Mash draws his massive sword and impales the Commander.
MASH: "Death is considered by many as a release. Enjoy your freedom."

Sasuke had finished helping out in the kitche, and found his way back up to the deck. He wandered about, watching everyone work. He sighed, and found himself crouched on the very top of the ship's mast. He rested his arms on his knees, glancing about.
Sasuke: "Hm... wonder what Sano's up to."

Sull flys around Gatsa, keeping an eye and an ear open for everything that happens. He laughs quietly, and looks at Gatsa, childish amusement on his face. Sull: "Your enemys... one seems to have lost his map. The forces are moving differently..." His face returns to a more serious look. He listens to the reports of Mash's battle, and remembers how this demon attacked him once. A spark of anger appears in his face, only to be instantly replaced by sorrow. ----------------------- Wraknorian awakens, his strength replenished. He looks around, sees noone, and sighs. He follows his knowledge of the living to find Ryuusei Amidamaru, and immediately takes off, burning red wings on his back. ----------------------- Having heard rumors of war, Di'En's keen business instincts have lead him to the hokage army... Di'En: "Hey... you there! Yes, you! You look like you need my enchantments... first quality, long-term guarantee! Just tell me what you want, be it a healing potion or a fire enchantment!" The soldier walks past him, taking no notice. Di'En sighs, and looks at his purse, wishing it were fuller.

Mash is on his way to the Hokage port. As he rushes through the paths and woods, he hacks and slashes his way through anyone unfortunate to be in his path. Most of them are Hokage troops.
MASH: "OUT OF MY WAY FOOLS! MOVE IT NOW, OR DIE!"
Mash lets out a few bursts of Dark Magick, clearing the field a bit more before finally arriving at the now empty Hokage Port.
MASH: "....so... it's abandoned for now.... Where has everyone gone..."
He looks out into the Argos Sea, and makes his assumptions.
MASH: ".....Lore... that would have the most strategic advantage right now.... So be it..."
Mash steals a small sailboat and rushes off of the port and onward to Lore.
----------------------------------------------------------------------- Lord Gatsa scans the horizon with his eyes, and seconds later, Sanosuke teleports in front of them.
SANO: "Lord Gatsa... Sull. I've been asked by the commander onboard the SS. Savage to collect you. I am to take you to Lore, Lord Gatsa. Sull, you have your choice between Lore and Dead Man's Route... choose wisely."
Sanosuke awaits Sull's response.

Sull listens to Sano, then closes his eyes, and waits for several seconds. He then answers without any pauses in his speach, and the voice is also not as resigned as usually. Sull: "I'll be going to Lore." He vanishes, and gets moving. -------------- Di'En: "Nobody? Hey... I can create healing potions, how about that? You'll be needing them soon, you know..." He ignores the annoyed glances. --------------- Wraknorian lands at Hokage Port... --------------- Miorix wakes with a headache, and has no idea where he is.

Sano grabs ahold of Lord Gatsa and teleports to Lore.
SANO: "Excuse me, Lord Gatsa. I will be on my way to Dead Man's Route now. General Ryuusei is waiting for you in the Commerce Chambers of the Council Room."
GATSA: "Thank you, Sanosuke."
SANO: "May Galvas' blessings surround you."
GATSA: "For Galvas." -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mash arrives on the shoreline within a few short hours, as Ryuusei is explains the situation to Lord Gatsa.
MASH: "Hm... Gatsa is here...And...what's this? That pretentious fool, Ryuusei Amidamaru as well. This will be perfect."
Mash heads to the Commerce Chambers in the Council Room.

Wraknorian arrives at Lore. He lands, and his red wings vanish. He continues to the council hall, looks around, and as the first person he sees is Mash, the smile is instantly wiped from his face. Wraknorian: "You... here? What intent is yours this time?" He continues looking around while waiting for a reply. ________ In the meantime, Sull is racing across the water in his wind form. A small, very dark raincloud moves above his head, traveling at the same, incredibly high speed as himself. ________ An annoyed Di'En Esthizar is on the road again, annoyed that he has hardly sold anything.

Mash looks to Wraknorian with a look of hatred on his face.
MASH: "I'm going to utterly destroy the Hokage. Those arrogant bastards brought me back from Oblivion, and foolishly assumed I would do their bidding. They will suffer for their assumptions. I've come to spy on that wretched Gatsa and that fool Ryuusei Amidamaru. I imagine that by doing so I will find Hokage Shogure. Once I do, I will kill him slowly. So unless you have a valid reason why I shouldn't kill him, get th' hell out of my way."

Wraknorian nods, shrugs, and keeps his thoughts to himself. He continues towards Ryuusei and Gatsa.
Sull arrives, and assumes his normal shape again. With a salto, he reduces his momentum, then lands. The raincloud is still above him, and the rain of his cloud has drenched him. Unusually determined, but still feeling very awkward, he walks to where he knows Wraknorian and Mash to be. ------------------------- Di'En meets a traveler on the road... Di'En: "How about an enchantment on your..." He looks at the traveler's ripped up clothes. Di'En: "erm... how about a healing potion?" The traveler moves on, mumbling something about fleeing, armys and the like. Di'En walks faster, hoping to make it to dead man's route shortly.

Sano arrives in Dead Man's Route, and regroups with Sasuke and the rest of the Army as they are leaving the ships.
SANO: "Sasuke... I imagine we don't have much time before the Hokage Army manages to get here. Has everyone prepared for the battle?"
The Commander steps off the ship, and looks to Sano.
COMMANDER: "Sir...A carrier pidgeon came to us while you were away. It brought news that the Hokage Army is on their way here with powerful sorcerors. Some of them may even use Black Magick."
SANO: "Black Magick, hm... I see..."
COMMANDER: "Yes sir. The news was brought to us by the Hunters, sir. They're going to assist us in the war from now on. They say they're going to take up the rear as we defend Dead Man's Route. If we all do well... we MAY actually keep the Army from reaching Lore."
SANO: "I see.... excellent... I'll report this to Lore immediatley."
COMMANDER: "Roger!"
Sano once again teleports out using the Shunkan Idou, and meets with Ryuusei in Lore.
SANO: "Report.... The Hunters have opted to assist us in the war. It's possible the Hokage Army may not reach Lore at all!"
RYUUSEI: "...hm... Then lighten the offensive. I WANT them to reach Lore."
SANO: "Why? That's not what was discussed to me earlier..."
RYUUSEI: "Because I want to face Hokage Shogure myself. I want him to die by my hands, like he should have years ago."
SANO: "Ryuu...you can't make this a personal battle you know..."
RYUUSEI: "You have my instructions. The Hokage Army MUST reach Lore."
SANO: "Well, ok then..."
Sano leaves, and returns to Dead Man's Route.
SANO: "Ok, listen up everyone, Ryuusei says he WANTS the Hokage Army to reach Lore... so keep the offensive light. I don't mean go dyin', I mean don't over-do it, ok?"
TROOPS: "YESSIR!"

Sasuke: "They're ready, a bit shaken. But they'll be alright."
He rests his arms on his hips, as he turns to look at the soldiers. He doubted that many of them would survive this battle, let alone the war.
He let out a sigh, shaking his head, before Sano reappeared once more. As the announcement was made he furrowed his brows slightly, he disapproved of this new course of action.
Sasuke: "Why is Amidamaru doing this? I'm sure he understands that if those soldiers make it to Lore, there will be severe casualties. Mind letting me know what he's planning?"

Sull appears next to Wraknorian. Sull: "Hey..." Wraknorian smiles. Wraknorian: "You've come... have you chosen to help us?" Sull: "... bad memories of war. No, I'm not dedicating myself to your cause, old man." Wraknorian: "I was already wondering. Time to say hello to Ryuusei." Sull nods, and vanishes. A very strong breeze and several instants later, he reappears. Sull: "What's the plan?" Wraknorian walks over to them. ---------------- Miorix looks around, and finds himself on a boat. Miorix: "Thought it was just me, but things really ARE moving." He thinks back to the evening before. Miorix: "what the heck happened?" He looks around, and sails to the nearby shore. ------------------ Di'En has broken into a run, and keeps it up for quite a while, despite his poor endurance.

Mash, Wraknorian, and Sull reach the doors of the Council Room.
MASH: "He's here, alright...."
Mash pushes past the doors and makes his way into the Commerce Chamber. Upon arriving there, he spots Ryuusei Amidamaru.
RYUUSEI: "Hm? Oh... it's you. What do you want?"
MASH: "...to kill Hokage Shogure. Tell me where he is...NOW!"
RYUUSEI: "...hmph. If I knew where he was he'd be dead right now."
MASH: "....I'm not leaving until I find and kill that bastard Hokage Shogure!"
Ryuusei turns and reaches for his Koji-Ken.
RYUUSEI: "I will be the one to kill Shogure!"
MASH: "Ergh... ROTTEN BASTARD! I'LL DO IT!"
RYUUSEI: "......"
Ryuusei releases his grip on the Koji-Ken.
RYUUSEI: "It's stupid to argue this. He'll die one way or another anyhow. Make you a deal. If I get to him first, I kill him. If you get to him first, you kill him."
MASH: "Agreed."
