Re: The infamous Ninja Hideout

The Ex-NOL soldier nodded and moved over to her, opening the cloak and revealing not weapons of course, but a small tool belt. It had various small tools on it, some that he often used to adjust his battle-armor; at times these various armor pieces would not function properly without some adjustment and use of Ars to adjust them. Of course he was going to work now with the best intentions, though he wasn't entirely certain of her physical body; a repair was often a close-up job by nature. He felt he could handle that.

"Alright, Lady Tron is it? I shall make the best efforts to seal your wounds." he nodded and knelt down until he was level with her wound, drawing out a cloth first to wipe at the wounded zone of her body; he took one of his various tools off of the small belt and got to work closing the wound properly. At least it felt familiar, he felt that he could have some good success to allow her full functions upon his completion.

After a while of running, Jin finally saw the Ninja Hideout. That's where the signals vaguely point me., he thought while he simply stood at the front door and called the present people. Surely there was a lot of power here...
"Can I take your attention for a few seconds please?
Once he drew some attention, he could ask his other questions: "Did you see a robo-"
He interrupted himself in the middle of his question, for he recognized Tamurai at his job of trying to repair Tron. "I'll re-ask my questions: did you see a robot that looks like me, and do you know where to find this city's scientists? I have some kind of payment for you, like offering whatever skills I have to repair that cyborg over there..."
That was said. A pretty interestingly good outcome was the sight of that man again, but, well...

Remaining in a full lotus sitting position, the proud ninja of Ikaruga actually managed to keep his mouth shut for more than five minutes at the moment. The ladies were discussing idle conversation topics, something about shoes and fancy hair combs he believed. Checking the time, Bang realized that he was already running late for his daily training schedule. After all it took quite a bit of effort to maintain his level of physical performance. When a strange man arrived at the door, Bang waved off the lower ranked ninja serving guard duty almost immediately. "Welcome my good man! This humble house is, always has been, and always will be, open to weary travellers of all shapes and sizes!" Even to someone as thick as Shishigami, the fact that the man's engineering skills could be greatly used was apparent. "Haha! Wonderful, just the man for the job if I do say so myself! Enter good sir and please do all you can to assist Mister Shukumei in his care of Miss Tron. If you require anything else Bing and Boom here should be more than qualified. Now if you will excuse me... Bang said, leaping into a wide horse stance, his arms crossed over his chest. "I must retire to the training hall. For truly there is no greater pearl of wisdom than two tigers being unable to lord over the same mountain! And if Bang SHishigami has anything to say about it, it shall be Bang Shishigami draped in brilliant stripes of valor. NOT, the weight machines! Have at you shiny metal feline foes!" finishing his mad ranting, he threw a smoke pellet onto the ground to mask his departure, vanishing from the room without a sound.

As her repairs begun, Tron fell silent. Her eyes turned gray and lost focus while her head tilted forward. It almost looked like a standby mode, yet Tron's consciousness was still active. Now was the perfect time to do some brainstorming to determine her next plans. What did she wanted to achieve? Slowly her blank eyes stared through the room. Isn't this enough? I should be grateful for everything that I have. Yet...
Yet the female cyborg felt more than dissatisfied. It was like an empty hole that needed to be filled. Somehow Tron felt useless. While she was bestowed with some quite powerful abilities, she still lacked a goal to use them for. Or maybe because she had those powers she felt a need to make use of them. While her wounds were being treated, Tron heaved off a big sigh. I need to go back to that place again, don't I? For a moment the cyborg grit her teeth. Just thinking about Sector Seven made her mind go blank for a split-second. What's with Sector Seven anyway? The female cyborg tried to check her database, but in her current condition, even that didn't seem to work. Right now she only felt a deep hatred towards Sector Seven, although she had no base for that. It was like a program which simply told her that it was the correct thing to think. Tron could try to analyze this feeling yet she would never be able to simply change it.
What about NOL then? If she was against Sector Seven, then one would think that Tron was a supporter of NOL. Yet Tron also didn't feel too fond of NOL after she met Bang and his people. But not just that. Tron felt the corruption of NOL on her skin. Whenever she thought about the ways of the Novus Orbis Librarium she got goose bumps. For some reason, Tron was really scared. Some part of her brain connected NOL with death and Tron didn't know why.
After thinking through things, Tron made up her mind. Before she could find a real goal, she needed to find out what actually happened to her before she opened her eyes on that transporter, which headed towards a junkyard. So the first question was........Who was I before that professor used my dead body?
Tron's eyes focused on the ground right in front of her. TR-007. That was the first thought she had, when she woke up back then. Whose face belonged to TR-007? Was it a civilian or a soldier? Someone from Kagutsuchi? Or maybe Ikaruga? Was that person good or evil? Tron had many questions she needed to answer...
"How are things going?"
As the repair progressed Tron asked Tamurai about the current situation. While her body updated her status regularly, she still wasn't able to access her main database and therefore the required information was missing.

As he heard the female cyborg speak to him, he adjusted his attention in part and stopped a moment to answer her. "It's going fairly well, the area is similar enough to my armor to proceed carefully. I should be done in no time at all." though the words spoke of some recognition for completion, it was not as easy as he made it sound.

He went back to his focus and made sure to close the wound, while giving it close attention to make sure it remained sealed; it had looked bad enough to cause problem given the oil leaks he'd seen, so he ensured it wouldn't plague her again. At least that was the plan, he kept his mental map clear since no stray thoughts would help; perhaps this was his place? He wanted to think that with the Ikarugan cause he might find something better in his future, with his father's notes both well hidden and scattered he wouldn't have luck roaming alone. So he would try his luck alongside the fighters for Ikarugan freedom for a time.

By no means in his hands had the repairs gone perfect, but enough of it was similar to the armor that he wore that he managed to seal the wounds with the tools present. It was perhaps a sign of good fortune, while the Ex-NOL officer finished up his repair job on the cyborg female; he rose from his knees and patted her shoulder lightly with his features wearing a smile.

"It's not perfect, but I've managed to seal the wounds, you should be alright to move around freely." he felt fairly certain, glad that he'd had the skills to begin with, since without them it would be an impossibility to continue use of his weaponry without NOL assistance, that or someone very good with the type of armor he wore.

by **Tron** on Tue Feb 21, 2012 7:30 am

Tron checked her database yet again. Finally the first reactions. The female cyborg seemed quite happy about the finished work. Since she decided what to do, sitting and waiting felt like an eternity.
"Thank you very much. I really owe you one. Don't hesitate to ask for a favor if you need my help anytime."
After standing up she stretched to check how well the wounds have been treated. All parameters showed positive stats and therefore Tron believed that everything was okay. Of course it was smarter to rest a bit, yet Tron had other plans. She needed to go back to that place, this time with preparations. Her gaze scanned through the Ninja hideout. Bang already left for the training hall. It was a good coincidence, the training hall was indeed a fitting place.
"If you'd excuse me for now, I have some things to do."
Her eyes focused in the direction of the training hall. Maybe it was the time to do this. With slow steps, Tron headed for the training hall.

With the repairings done so fast and without any sort of error, the blue-clad formerly-human Jin stood there. "Science made huge steps forward, I can hardly catch up with that body structure; whoever built her was a genius, or would have been treated as one back then."
Though, that done, it was time to leave, asked Bing and Boom for the direction of the local scientists. Though, getting no precise answer, he decided not to bother himself too much with that, instead going back to simple life in the docks. Who knows, maybe he could become a part of the mob and spend his days simply. After all, if an RJ still existed, it would definitely have shown up. And nothing did.
His decision taken, Jin walked out, bidding his farewell to anybody he caught a glance of.

Tamurai had given off a light smile while he popped his neck a little bit, standing up while he brushed his hair and removed it from his face. "I see, the great shinobi must go to contemplate and train, at least I was able to help her out. Well I think should get in a thought or two, perhaps I should make some tracks...its about time that I get some intel, the NOL will indeed be moving against our efforts. Maybe, just maybe I can make something of this mess, they have done all the action; more...should be done." he stepped from the area, considering his next steps. He'd have to keep track of Bang and the woman he had just met.

He could tell those present had meant well, he wanted to help them and in that own right, help their people make tracks for the better. 'Indeed a tricky mash...I must be careful...' he whispered as he looked ahead and stepped off, to contemplate his next actions.

---------------(From "The Streets of Ronin-Gai")---------------->
After a while of hazy walking and trying to find the girl, Kouma noticed the hideout. Of course it was a perfect hide for criminals or wanted people to flee in. Therefore, Kouma stormed at the entrance and called out loud for somebody to come: "Can somebody here tell if he or she saw that person?".
Showing the sheet so everyone could see, he closed his eyes to wait in impatience before he would receive an answer. His eyes felt fatigued for some reason.

by **Touko Kazashi** on Wed Apr 11, 2012 11:15 am

Touko was going in and out of houses, when the hideout appeared to her eyes. She didn't pay it too much mind because it looked a bit like a place to hide, but not too much to her tastes...

She was preparing to go on with the random house opening, but Kouma had run straight into the hideout. She had to follow him, but she didn't show up to the eyes of the others, preferring to let the spotlight to her massive companion, and just staying behind him while looking at what and who was in.

by **Shibi Sekisei** on Wed Apr 11, 2012 11:47 am

Shibi was sleeping in the corner of the room in utter peace... until some wild beastman stormed in calling with his loud, deep, strong voice. Shibi just woke up suddenly and tumbled, falling flat on her face. She groaned with slight discontent. What's that for an entry? Normally, people knock at the door and say something like "Shitsurei shimasu." or something...
Barely even looking at the giant silhouette towering at the entrance, she preferred to let the house owner deal with the problem as politeness imposed. She just stayed lying on the ground, faking sleep to try and avoid whatever this huge guy-thing could have to say...

by **Kouma Sougou** on Tue Apr 17, 2012 3:17 am

After a while of non-answers, the boar-kin realized nobody was in the main room. Except that girl lying on the ground. When he looked a bit more closely, he noticed she had the same hair-color as the one on the sheet, and those characteristic pigtails made it all the more evident: it was her! No escape possible for her: Kouma already used Dorigame's ability to create eight vertical barriers around Shibi so she was surrounded between those, the ground, and the ceiling. Slapping the paper on the barrier so the girl could see it was not a joke, Kouma shouted: "Surprise! We got ya! Time for a test!"
They finally had her! Kouma let the interrogation to Touko since she was the one in charge of the diplomatics between the two of them. It was a good choice because without her, Kouma would just have handed her over for the money. "Touko, the questions please."

by **Touko Kazashi** on Tue Apr 17, 2012 3:30 am

Touko had already recognized her target for quite a long time when Kouma finally kicked up the pace, and drastically at that: Shibi was already trapped. The self-proclaimed judge of justice didn't even come to the eyes of Shibi before being asked to do so by Kouma, and she walked slowly to his side. Instead of obeying him and asking the questions right away, she'd play with Shibi instead for now, as a test... "Questions? What questions? I mean, we know her name and all..." She would wait for a while before having a fake brainwave: "Oh yeah... can you read the sheet?"

by **Shibi Sekisei** on Tue Apr 17, 2012 3:48 am

Faking sleep had not been a good strategy to ward off those persons as they acted fast and used some sort of Armagus to trap her. While her crow rose from her shoulder, pecking in vain at the barriers, Shibi stayed calm and sat down from the ungraceful lying-on-her-face position that failed to provide a cover. While the guy obviously was using brute force, the girl was way more cryptic and playful. Shibi hid a slight giggle: it made her think of herself. Though, the "questions" were so long to come the time got a yawn out of Shibi's mouth... What? She got captured to be asked if she could read a bounty sheet? "Well, I don't know... yes?", she answered with a sleepy face. What's this; now they stick brutes and kids as vigilantes? Aw, give me a break, please...

by **Kouma Sougou** on Mon Apr 23, 2012 10:50 am

Dammit, Touko...
Kouma felt insatisfied as both Touko and the girl were playing around, not doing the requisite. He wouldn't hold those barriers for all eternity, could he? As the boarkin started to growl of both discontent and tiredness, he lost a bit of his nerve: "Hey, those were totally not what you asked to the other small fries! Seriously, I can't do that all day, Touko-" a cough interrupted his phrase. He had caught a cold for some reason. So shoulda worn more than just my vest..., he swore to himself... Touko, please finish that quick so I can get a rest or something stupid like it...
