Escape from Prison

Just as he thought the man in front of him introduced himself as Satoru, a member of the Nara clan well known for their ability to manipulate shadows as he had demonstrated a few moments ago. Claiming to be from Amegakure, Satoru mentioned he had come to the Land of Fire to discover and learn more about the techniques the Nara are so famous for. It would be the first time Minato had met one of the Shadow Technique users but he was aware that the clan was originally one of the many clans in Konohagakure. If he came all the way to the Land of Fire to find out more about his clan that would mean it was of the utmost importance to Satoru. "It must mean a great deal to you if you travelled all this way, certainly with all the dangerous people lurking around."

Minato looked over at the still restrained boy. "Of course, my only intention is to stop him, not hurt him." Even if the boy had nothing to do with the murders he already confessed he had been there and the fact that he wanted to leave the village didn't really make him innocent all of a sudden. No matter what, Minato couldn't allow him to leave the village until the whole case was resolved. He needed to be taken in and brought before trial. It wasn't up to the young Uchiha to decide what to do with him but he had to make sure the boy didn't leave before his trial. "Guilty or not there is no way you're walking out of the village before everything is resolved. You have my word you'll receive an honest trial where you'll be heard, just like the other witnesses who were there." Minato directed himself to the young boy. It would be up to him if he decided to go with him voluntary or not. "Now, what will you do?"

The course of action would depend on how the boy chose to answer. If he was smart he would join Minato back to the village. If he tried to run he would be stopped, again. How funny it may sound it was much safer for him inside Konohagakure. Who knows how long he would survive outside. Now the only thing left was to decide how to handle the situation with Satoru. Minato had to be cautious but on the other hand they had travelers coming to Konohagakure every day. As long as he made sure to keep a close eye on him it would be okay to let him enter the village. "Here's what I think. You and me both accompany this one inside so I can take him to the prison where he can await his trial. Once I'm sure he's locked up and can't hurt others or get hurt himself I will then take you to one of the village's inns where you can enjoy your stay. I assume you'll be here for a couple of days if you plan on researching your clan. Of course I will have to ask you to contact me if you need something besides exploring the village. How does that sound?" he suggested to both Satoru and the young boy. It was up to them to decide if they agreed to those terms.

The things discussed are agreeable. As is within Satoru’s character, there seems little left for him to say on the matter. It has already run through his mind, if he is to inquire further about this situation about Uchiha and houses burning down. He has come to the conclusion that it does not concern him and that the interest does not exist. Best not to stick one’s nose where it was not invited.


“Then we have reached a consensus.” Is all the Nara can come up with. He also shows the body language of being ready to walk through Konoha’s gates.

“So it would seem” he answered as they had settled an agreement. Satoru was allowed entry into Konohagakure but Minato would keep an eye on him whenever he would need something and Jakku wasn't going to get hurt but had to be brought back voluntary to the village where he would get an honest trial. All in all it was the best solution for every party involved. "Now, if you two would follow me." he would say as he would lead both Satoru and the young boy into Konohagakure, each to a different location. The young boy to prison where he could await his trial and Satoru to one of the local inns where he could enjoy his stay for a couple of days. Minato would inform the other guards about the two individuals and made sure their information was written down. "I'm Minato by the way."

Satoru releases the shadow imitation technique and follows into the village only after the boy enters first. It is not within the Nara's character to keep the accused restrained and force him to walk through mimicry. Rather, he remains a few meters behind the boy and only follows the red-eyed man into the village after the boy does the same.

Jakku, with a sigh felt his muscles unfreeze. He stretched his arms. It was good not to be locked in place. Well, actually, so much for that feeling. Jakku was gonna be thrown in prison any second. Jakku started to walk into the village, taking a look over his shoulder at the boy behind him.

Jakku heard the Uchiha’s name. Minato. Now, he could start making his list:
Target 1: Minato Uchiha, 2 Tomoe Sharingan. Appearance noted.
Target 2: Member of the Nara clan. Appearance noted. Village of origin: Amegakure.
