“Breathe.”
“Just keep your head down, breathe. I’ll be right back.” Before Izumi could either protest or agree Rin jumped back into the fray, trusting her student to stay hidden for the moment. Without a Genin to attend to Rin was free to take out the remaining two shinobi, noting how mismatched their uniforms seemed to be. Stolen, no doubt, leaving her in the dark as to where they came from despite the hitai-ate they bore proudly displaying a leaf.
Even if they were clearly imposters her eyes were drawn to the corpse across the clearing, one still sporting the kunai Izumi used to take him down. It protruded from his neck and was already starting to congeal in place. In the heat of the moment they looked like one of their own, a psychological tactic she was sure. Quickly she reappeared on the tree branch beside her ward, a gentle hand coming to rest on the Uchiha’s shoulders.
Poor thing-
“I need you to say something Izumi...”
