The Calm (Mors, Fenrir, Jinzu, Jason, Kisuke)

Salzem hung limp from Aryll's back as they came to a new battlefield, one in which had already been decided: Konoha submitting to Kiri's absolute might, not that he could see anything. All he could do was listen and watch... He said nothing as he heard the voices of his ninja, his eyes only locked on that one kid... the one that put him in this situation in the first place... He stared at the Kiri-ninja, his gaze burning, wild like an inferno manifested in only his eyes. There wasn't a thought in his head nor did the memory of his defeat play behind his eyes. He didn't feel any shame nor did he even BLAME the poor idiot for anything... Just complete and utter rage when he looked upon him. It was all they lycan could do to stay still and not struggle against his restraints, his head the only thing under his control. The kid just out of range though, seemingly content and happy to have brought this devastation upon another country.

"Keep me..." He whispered, his voice only audible to himself and maybe Aryll considering he was pinned to her back. He felt his muscles begin to tense reflexively and his eyes grew more calm... quiet... like the ashes left behind. He waited patiently for the kid to get within range and raise his fist up enough to charge a good solid punch and the moment it started to come down...

Salzem's body exploded with mass and weight as he took to his lycan form at speed of 100 starting at his head, his neck twisting to the side so that the kid's punch went wide a couple inches and his jaws snapping around his wrist. The kid would feel Salzem's teeth grind into his skin, muscle and bone as he crunched down upon his limb, ripping it right off at the elbow, the limb almost seeming deflated with how utterly crushed it was in his maw (Speed 120 for bite Strength 75, Sharpness 75). Blood pored from the decimated limb as the lycan continued to chew and mangle it like a dog would a rabbit, his body seeming to swell with a second wind of sorts.

"RRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAGH!" He roared, jerking towards the boy suddenly (speed 120, Strength 75) attempting to take another bite out of him, this time at his other shoulder, the kid's arm dropping out of his mouth as he did so, assuming Aryll's bindings didn't hold him back. (speed 120, Strength 75, Sharpness 75). He'd rip that one off too if he could reach it.

"I'LL RIP YOU TO BLOODY SHREDS!" The werewolf screamed with a rage he didn't know he even had. Something like this... He was never this violent... Never once. "I'LL BASH YOU INTO BLOODY PULP!"

It was finally over Mors’ job was now complete, the big mechanical wonder signaling that all would end.  He seen as the beast of mechanical instructed it all to stop. Also, seeing the great mizukage triumphed over the Konoha forces that opposed, and they all begin to line up and kneel as when they had first got here. Mors feeling the tree that bound him, releasing him from the restraint. He was free once more, the battle had gone more or less what he expected. But it all did not matter Mors did as he was told, and so did Fenrir who seems to have came to his senses. Who limped his way back to the line, Mors had seen that  the Konoha shinobi seemed to have left one of their own in the background, who should have been hit by the shuriken that was thrown at it. He knew that none could missed what was to happen next and made his way over to her, taking the scarf of his to wrap around her wound to stop the bleeding for the time being. This was one who did nothing much in the fight, for whoever knows why, but Mors was a complete dick so he helped a little not too much but enough that the child should live to see another day. Maybe? Who knows but Mors would take her over to the hulking war machine, who seemed better suited for taking the prisoners and pass her off to it. ”Got another straggler for ya. I don’t got much use for her.” He’d say and walk off to where he was told to go after. He did not pay much attention to what was going on with the other two one strapped to the automaton, the other trying to hit him, so it seemed.

Aryll would giggle under her breath, inaudible through Thane's metal shell, when faced with the Konoha ninja's reaction to her appearance. She lived for that moment of surprise, of fear. It was her favorite part of any fight with her massive suits of armor, really. She watched as the forces of Konoha, or at least, the last man standing of the bunch, surrendered. He retrieved one of his friends and carried him off, calling for a medical ninja to patch him up to being capable of walking. Aryll would allow this, not speaking until he left. Around this time, Kozurou would turn around and talk in the opposite direction of Aryll, walking backwards towards her. Was this some sort of new dance craze? 

She raised a curious eyebrow at the Konoha ninja leaving one of his comrades behind. Was she dead? Or had he forgotten about her? Either way, the sight of a Kirigakure ninja picking up the last remaining sight reassured Aryll that she was not, in fact, dead. He carried her over to Aryll, and Thane's lowermost right arm would take her gently, but firmly, clamping around her just as it had for Sal, pinning her arms to her sides. She'd release this one soon enough, probably also the boy who had as much control of his legs as she did her own. Well, she would have. 

He spoke eagerly, as if she had retrieved something he had lost, and spoke of asking the Mizukage if he could... "Keep him." 
"Come on, Kozurou, we don't keep consorts in Kirigakure. We're warriors, not savages." Aryll would say, the front hatch of Thane opening to show her disapproving look. She had no idea what Kozurou had actually meant, but it didn't sound good to her. About this time, the boy would mumble, stirring back into consciousness, and Kozurou would approach. As Kozurou approached, Aryll would not exactly understand what he was attempting until it was too late. 

He tried to hit the boy on the head. Aryll wasn't exactly sure why, seeing as he was properly restrained and they were supposed to be bringing him to kneel before the Mizukage, and for that reason, being unconscious was not at all to their beneficent. Regardless, Kozurou would act, and Aryll would realize a second too late what was being attempted. 

The boy in her puppet's hand would begin to shift and change, turning into something that resembled a wolf, and attempting to bite Kozurou's hand in retaliation. Regardless of what happened, as soon as the boy started to turn, Aryll's right hand would cross over her left, which was in turn crossing to her right shoulder, currently controlling the puppet. She would produce five chakra threads from her right hand, which would move towards the raging wolflike beast at a speed of 90, attaching to him at multiple points, one at each shoulder, one at each side of the neck, and one at the back of his head. These threads would hold him with a power of 90 and force him to remain still, drawing back from Kozurou.

At the same time, she would force Thane to pull his arm back, forcing Sal up and away from Kozurou so that neither could deal any damage to the other. This was not the time for fighting, that time had passed. Holding the boy, restrained by both chakra threads and by Thane's mechanical arms, she would keep her arms crossed thusly, the hatch remaining open so that she could hold him with her threads. 
"Listen to me." She would say to the boy. "He won't harm you again, at least not while you're restrained, but if you try to struggle, or slip away..." She began, tightening Thane's grip ever so slightly. "I'll crush you and your friend here." She said forebodingly, her gaze falling to Celeste, who was restrained in the arm opposite to Sal. "Do we understand each other? Yes? Good." Aryll would say, not pausing to allow the boy to speak. 

"Now then, I think we've kept the Mizukage waiting long enough." She would say, as Thane spun back to his neutral position. She kept the threads attached to Sal, just in case he attempted something... Regretful. She kept the two firmly out of Kozurou's reach, however, just in case the boy held a grudge with his would-be consort. She'd have words with the Mizukage about what had just occurred.

Hmmm...? Kozurou would pull his hand back as fast as he could as Salzem started shifting; subsequently,some invisible force restrained Salzem, likely Aryll's doing. This would prevent him from being harmed in any way. How boring, this beastman still had some fight in him, and they weren't even allowed to exchange further pointers. He shrugged, following behind Aryll and her captured enemies as they left the scene. They might have been showing them mercy in her eyes, but to him, allowing him to fight further would have been much more entertaining and useful. He was sure that he could learn many different things from the Konoha boy, but now he'd never be able to find out. Oh well, no use complaining about things he couldn't control. The universe was cruel, sometimes.

He also noted that she'd picked up the other combatant who he'd incapacitated earlier. It'd been too easy, he thought. He'd keep an eye on those two and the people around him, just in case something bad happened. Either these folks were extremely weak, or they were plotting something, and he wasn't about to let them get the jump on him or his comrades.
