Description

Yuuki Kunosaki
Role
Princess of the Kunosaki
Image
Yes I'm the Royal Princess of the Kunosaki. Please don't bow...! Treat me as a normal person please.





Name: Yuuki Kunosaki
Age: 25
Gender: Female
Height: 5'5
Weight: 105lbs
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Weapon(s): The twin blade of her brother's katana, Neko-te, Tessen, and some smoke bombs/reg bombs.





Image
Personality:
Yuuki is generally cheerful and comedic, as well is an extremely kind and over-optimistic girl who refuses to let anyone lift a finger for her, and at times she gets spacey. She is very loving, and finds things that wouldn't usually be that funny, pretty funny. Her lovingness is proven multiple times, usually it is directed towards her brother, mother, and all of her friends. She is very considerate, and if somethings happens that would agrivate an average person, she commonly just smiles and moves on. This also proves her braveness, which is shown multiple times- like when she allowes all of her servants (friends) to go off and have fun during a festival, and when they come back to the castle (after finding out that this her first new years eve without her mother), they find her crying, and they realized just how brave she really was. Her friends sometimes call her "a pushover". She makes sure everything is nice and clean in within the castle, despite the servants desperate crys to leave it to them and not ruin her kimono, and promises to pay anyone back who treats her.

Because of how much she gets attached to people and how much she cares, many fears of them dying have developed. The death of her mother furthering this fear. However Yuki hates showing her fear and always hides it behind a smile. Over the years now, she is even able to hide it from her twin.

She is also willing to talk and often starts the conversation. Many ninja are unnerved often by her personality as she talks as if she were a friend with them. It's just how she was raised. If need be though, Yuuki can be as blunt and cold as a blade to suit a mission. Killing is nothing new to her at all. Then there's just her random creepiness that pops up when ever someone mumbles something superstitious. Overall Yuuki is well balanced with a bit of everything.

Likes:
Friends and Family: She considers them her life.
Waking up Early: She's an early riser. If she wakes up late...well that doesn't work so well.
Animals: furry animals are so cute?
Peace: The chaos has costed her so much...she wishes for this with all her heart.
Household work: It makes her feel normal.
Improvement: She strives to also be one of the best kunoichi in history.
Music: It's her way of calming down.
Dislikes:
Nobunaga/Traitors
Crying: She feels weak and Takashi used to tease her.
Flirts: She had enough suitors to last a lifetime haha~ Maybe
Killing
Talents:
Natural ability: Blame the bloodline.
Playing the Shamisen: Of all the instruments she chose a beggar's tool. She prefers the simple sound, but complex way to play it.
Hand-to-Hand combat: Bit lacking, but enough.
Kenjutsu: Yuuki and her brother received about the same training.
Unceasing Kindness: it has no limit.
Flaws:
Pushover
Hides her feelings
Doesn't know when to stop at times
Hobbies:
Shamisen
Training

at the brief respite Piitaa entered into the clearing bloodied and panting his armour covered in dirt, leaves and branches a few nicks and cuts of varying depth on his arms and legs, Katana in one hand and his sickle and chain wrapped around his other hand "on a quick glance I think we will be safe for the time being, if there are more Iga they will be staying where they are, waiting for us to pass"

he squatted for a bit speaking in gasping breaths "is anyone seriously hurt? I'm afraid i have virtually no skill in healing, but i can help if I'm wanted" he lowered his blade, the blood on the blade started flowing down it, and his crimson armor was covered in darker splotches if its his blood or the other ninja's no one could tell "ill stay with you now, they caught on and have moved out of the hunter tracks, so its up to a bit of luck and our skill."

he grabbed some grass and leaves and begun wiping the excess blood off before sheathing his sword "if we get ambushed, my fighting style needs more room to myself or me hidden, my sickle however, I can use that better than anything in closer quarters" he thought to himself while he regained his breath taking the time to briefly meditate.

Kai took in the info and rolled her eyes at Takato's complaints. She slipped out from underneath Otoha's arm and started cleaning the arquebus. She was out of ammo now and she would have to result to using "that" weapon. The prince's words about finding their father caused her to stop cleaning. The brief image of the bloody corpse of the Royal leader at the shrine surfaced in her mind again. "Let me ask you Kunosaki-sama...how do you know your father is still alive." Her eyes a cold silver as she locked eyes with the prince briefly. Waiting for an answer she turned her attention to Piitaa who had just emerged.

"You should take care of yourself as well." With the same swift motion as before, Kai reached into Takato's pouch, rummaged around, and pulled out the left over bandages. She tossed them to Piitaa. "Now we better move. The arquebus takes, at the least, 10 minutes to reload. Moreover, Kotaro Fuma my master enjoys a good game of cat and mouse. He'll be part of those searching for us." She strapped the arquebus on her back in a fluid motion. Kai was ready to get moving.

after the brief respite when people started speaking to Piitaa again he looked at the bandages thrown at him and did basic work clearly showing his near non existent skill at first aid, but he made sure to leave some to toss back to himawari "I'm not sure how far it is, jumping from track to track has turned my around a bit, but i know this path and if we keep following it we will arrive there, my guess would be another half hours walking, but if those Fuma snipers are indeed out there we should make it in 20 minutes running, accounting for the difficult path"

he sheathed his katana and took his sickle and chain out eying the blade "hmm.....its going to need sharpening soon" he thought to himself, but that thought was for another time he turned to the twins "i think it would be best if we found someplace to stay before we start looking for the king, that way we would know where we can return to."

he stretched lightly his back cracking slightly "I'm ready to move, and i still think its a good idea to cut any branches in our way in case we walk into another Iga ambush" he then moved to the front of the party readying his weapon, he briefly looked the prince and princess over and gave a quick grin to the both of them

"Is anyone seriously hurt?"
Takashi looked down at himself when the question was asked, and touched two fingers to the hole in his armored cuirass, near his lower left side. He'd been shot when the Fuma first opened fire on them in the clearing, it seemed, though he hadn't noticed at the time. He could feel the blood soaking into the fabric of his kimono beneath. "No, I'm not hurt, though my sister's face was cut." He left the order to tend to her unspoken.

"Let me ask you, Kunosaki-sama, how do you know that your father is still alive?" He turned to regard the woman's cold silver eyes as she waited for an answer. "I do not know. But so long as there is a chance, it is my duty to aid him. Had he not ordered us to escape and protect each other, I would be at his side yet." Takashi spoke with a rather defensive tone, as if Kai were accusing him of something. Really, he was just afraid for their Father, and felt terrible for leaving the man to fight the Clan Masters all by himself. Even if it would have likely been suicide. "Taka-chan, calm down. It's nothing really. Besides, what does it matter if we're royal?" "Don't call me that. It's not nothing. It's disrespect for our lineage that led to the clans' betrayal." How could the Clans be expected to loyally serve when they had no respect or fear of the Kunosaki? Leadership was their Divine Right, established by the Emperor. He wasn't going to press the issue further right now, though. The others were right, they should keep moving. It was at least refreshing to see some of them echoing the same concern for his sister's safety that he felt.

Kai cocked an eyebrow about Takato's comment of feeling him up. "You wish." Shee turned her attention back to the prince's remark. "An order is an order...you should respect your parents wishes.." Kai's voice trailed off a bit. Inside she was debating on whether to tell the group straight up what she saw at the shrine when the chaos just began. Once again the Prince spoke up about their right to rule. Takato seemed to take it quite to offense and started raving as well.

She quietly thought as to why the Prince acted this way. Arrogance always has a reason. A few minutes passed before it finally clicked. By then Takato had already gone ahead. Kai turned her stare back to the twin. "Your worried. Aren't you..maybe even afraid. You don't know what might have happened to your father and you only have each other to trust. For all you know you could be the last of your family...that's why you wanted us to treat the cut. She's all you have now at the moment." Most of hat she said was directed toward the brother, but some of it was toward the princess as well.

Kai walked over to the princess and wiped at the "cut". "It's blood spatter just to point out, Hime-sama." She smirked slightly and was about to follow the rest of the ninja into the forest when a something caught her eye. A single hole in the Prince's armor. "You were shot. Why didn't you say anything?" Kai knew the bullet needed to be removed now, but she had nothing to remove it with. To make matters worse, it seemed as if a search party was approaching them. "Let's go now!" She mouthed and pushed the twins toward to Takato's direction. She motioned with one hand for Otoha and Piitaa to go on ahead.

When the other ninja started conversing again everyone decided they needed to move and the one called Piita said they needed to reach the safe house in 20 minutes. He grinned at them, which she returned. The Fujisawa shinobi stood by the trees ahead waiting for everyone . It seemed everyone was ready. Except maybe one.

Yuuki smiled when Takashi complained about the nickname, but it disappear when he went on about there lineage. "It's not nothing. It's disrespect for our lineage that led to the clans' betrayal." That might have been the case, but what if the clans were just fed up with running and hiding. She had heard reports from scouts that the clans lost members when Nobunaga found them. The last report was that the wife of one of the clan leaders had been killed in a raid by the defected clan of Motochika. She was about to scold Takashi when the one named Himawari Takato spoke up.

Ones like I view your family's actions with reverence, your family kept us alive in a time where we were doing our best to kill ourselves off. But peace, true peace cannot be forced. And you should show us some more respect than you do. Everyone here has trained and bled, always pushing ourselves further, never allowing ourselves to remain complacent, so that we were always getting stronger." He then commented about the fact Takashi couldn't order him around and about a cut on her face?? She was sure Gin-chan got cut.

As Takato disappeared Gin spoke. Yuuki stared her straight in the eyes. "Yes I'll admit I'm worried and scared...but I need to be brave. Being scared and hiding behind others wouldn't help any of you. It'd probably make it more difficult." As Gin approached her she flinched when she touched her face and smirked back at the girl when she said he cut was just blood spatter. "Taka-chan, don't worry so much okay?" She smiled and ruffled her twin's hair. However the quick break ended when Gin started pushing them towards the path ahead again. It was faint but Yuuki could hear the voices of another group of ninja.

As the prince and himawari started to argue he looked to Yuuki as she returned his grin "you two surprised me back there when you actually fought, I'm glad i was never hired to kill either of you, I'd be in trouble" he chuckled to her and touched a nearby tree, one of the few trees whos branches weren't an Iga ninja "I'm sorry" as everyone began to move he then turned to the prince "do not take our behavior as lack of respect Ouji-sama (prince, there are two words for prince and princess, ouji and oujo and waka and hime) but try to look at it from our point of view, we watched our clans, our families, our masters defect to nobunaga....we have been forced to kill our friends. for people we don't even know...in may case anyway"

he looked to the two of them in an appraising manner and carried on "I'm not going to go on a sob story for sympathy, I've killed to many people to be owed sympathy, but i ask that you give us a bit of time, I'm still getting used to the fact I've killed my friends, so i respectfully ask that you just give us the respect you want us to give you, and give us space to take in what we have done before you order us around. You can rule when we are ready to serve you fully, I'm not speaking for everyone but I'm serving you out of instinct while I piece this chaos together, I enjoy a fight when its chaotic.....but not when circumstances are"

he patted the tree he was stroking "I'm sorry" unwound his sickle and chain and gave it a few practice swings before standing near Kai "An interesting way of getting to know each other wouldn't you say?" he gave kai and himawari a look "I'm sorry I acted hostile when we met" Piitaa started to look around as talk started to turn to the group of ninjas apparently watching them and readied himself

Kai nodded at Yamahashi's apology, noting that he was feeling remorse when he lacerated a tree. "This was all Nobunaga's doing.." The voices were getting stronger and Kai pushed the Royals ahead since they didn't seem to be moving. "We gotta go. We need to treat that bullet wound." She stopped after she had finally just decided to shove them into the forest again. Hopefully Takato had disabled the traps. "Yamahashi, lets go. If we keep pausing for battle we'll be to exhausted to escape and we'll leave more a trail to follow." The moon above was now covered by clouds. Rain began to fall. Kai then grabbed the shinobi by his shirt collar and attempted at dragging him into the forest. "Come on you fool. Some battles are best to be avoided."

"You believe you have the right to order us around due to your family's name, to the point we should stop trying to find safety to tend to a minor cosmetic wound on your sister. Grow up."
Takashi winced at the harsh words Takato finished with. The speech bit deep, and for an instant the young prince's anger flared around his injured pride. It was quickly tamped down. They didn't need to be fighting one another when there was an army in the forest all around them. Beyond that, the words rang with truth. Each of those standing with him now had been forced to leave their clans behind. That might well have been more difficult than to simply have it taken from you; they still had a choice. Takato left to scout ahead before the white haired prince finished pondering over his words. Piitaa's words were just as true, and delivered quite a bit more respectfully...which just made him feel guilty.

"Your worried. Aren't you..maybe even afraid. You don't know what might have happened to your father and you only have each other to trust. For all you know you could be the last of your family...that's why you wanted us to treat the cut. She's all you have now at the moment."
He didn't look at Kai while she spoke, but it did comfort him that she understood his motivations. He nodded, just so that she would know she was right. He wasn't merely afraid, he was terrified something would happen. They could all be killed. The Demon King was a hair's breath from having complete dominance over the Ninja, and from there it would be a simple matter to establish himself as Shogun, more powerful even than the Emperor. He turned and scowled at his sister when she used his nickname and ruffled his hair, treating him like a child. Then again, he'd been acting like one, so perhaps he deserved it. If only he had some time to think, or if he could speak with some of his advisors. He glanced down at his wound when Kai questioned it. He just shrugged. Honestly, with everything going on, he hadn't noticed he had been wounded until they stopped. After that, well, it was a combination of not wanting to worry them, and knowing they didn't have the time yet to tend it. Unfortunately, before he could give voice to his reasons, they were forced to begin moving once again. He waited only for Yuuki to get a head start, so that he could keep her in sight, before continuing to make for the safety at the forest's center.

((actual reply now, and to help alleviate any confusion what Piitaa says aloud will be in bold)) shoved forward Piitaa was quite surprised at that before he leaped a head bounding from tree to tree slashing out with his sickle, surprised yelps answered some of his slashes, and a few of them he killed others he slashed an arm of a leg and let them drop onto the floor the rain making the trees slippery and the ground begun to mudden and bog down "How much longer to that tree?" he heard Yuuki ask, he darted from branch to branch towards her shoving another ninja to the ground "just a few more feet Princess" he answered from above his ears twitched at the screaming from somewhere but he was too busy to check it out, the ninjas attacking them were focusing on the princess it seemed not knowing what was coming

KRAKATHOOM!!!!

The explosion blasted Piitaa from his tree having not expected it and with the momentum he went flying to the front of the group his left arm smashing into a tree a loud crunching sound being heard as his shoulder was ripped from his joint and lay dangling, dislocated and very much useless
GRAAAAH!!!! he yelled out in pain as an iga who was hiding as a branch on the tree he hit leaped down and stabbed his thigh, he grunted at that as his mind wasnt focused due to the shock of the pain of both the dislocating his arm and the dagger to the thigh, he reacted on instinct and used his sickle to hamstring the other ninja and then finally cut his throat.

he sat their panting, his hand on his thigh he left arm hanging limply down, he bent his good knee and used that and the tree as an aid to stand, but it was going to take some time "not much farther" he said to himself....he hoped that they would make it soon, the centre of the forest was drawing ever nearer

The chaos had begun as the group managed to get through squads of disguised Iga, evade Koga traps, and even the Fuma weren't even firing. "Probably fled..." Above her Kai could see, flashes of white and bodies fell from the trees. Yamahashi had started his work. She ducked under a wire and took out her Fukiya, which she loaded with a dart, and cut the wire. An explosion issued right after. However...

KRAKATHOOM!!

Another explosion happened quickly thereafter. Kai stopped briefly and watched as a figure came hurtling down....and with a second to late reaction, Kai was flattened by it. The singed figure was still alive and based on what she could discern from a brief flash of lightning. She recognized the person as Takato who was burned severely. "Baka" She hissed and shoved him off. Then she managed to support him, half carrying, half dragging him. With much difficult she kept up with the group and saw Piitaa had sustained damage as well. "We're almost there. It should be much easier. Fuma has given up. Rain makes the arquebus useless. The only obstacle is the Iga. I here the center of the forest houses the goddess of animals. I highly doubt Koga would risk angering her." Her legs threatened to give out as she managed to take a few steps forward still carrying the Koga fool.

Another flash of lighting revealed a tree towering above all the rest a few feet ahead. "We can make it, we have to. However, where's the Fujiwara shinobi?" The way they were going looked as though someone had gone ahead, meaning it could be the Fujiwara. Kai wasn't sure though. "Everyone okay? Hime-san, Ouji-sama?" She turned to look back at the battered group.

Piitaa walked with the group glad that it wasn't his dominant that was injured, but it still made things difficult "i cant wait to sit down" he thought to himself. every since the defection of all the clans Piitaa hadn't really stopped, and his body was quick to remind him, the cold rain and mud began to sink a chill into his bones, walking became hard as his now aching muscles twitched and tripped causing Piitaa to stumble over what seemed to be every tiny bit of undergrowth. When Kai fell though at Otoha's appearance he stumbled to her side and used his good arm to link with hers and help heft her and Himawari up "come on Hio-San, just a few more feet" helping both of them up and help keeping the up took its toll quickly but he still had some inner reserve of endurance, as his arms got tried and his legs nearly gave way himself it tripped some sort of survival instinct, things became easier to do...well it felt like it anyway Fujiwara, come help Himawari, Hio-san is exhausted he wasnt paying attention to Otoha's entrance his attention went to Kai first and Kai had called him fujiwara a few times but not his name.

soon enough the party would arrive at the edge of the forest a small circle clearing surrounded the largest tree, its branches doming over the others ensuring nothing would grow under them

Takashi had been forced to put away his bow with the advent of the storm. The moisture wouldn't be good for his bowstring, and while he had a couple of spares, it was best not to be wasteful with one's equipment. Besides, the random gusts of wind cutting through the woods along with the rain would throw off his aim. Instead, he kept his katana at hand. It didn't take long for the rain to leave him completely soaked, his shins a mess of mud, and the rest of his body dotted with the occasional windblown leaf. As uncomfortable as he was, though, the storm seemed like a positive turn of events. As Kai pointed out, the weather would ruin the Fuma's gunpowder, and it would also help cover their tracks through the forest.

If they stopped running into explosions that could probably be heard in China, anyway. Takashi winced and paused by a tree as the shockwave passed, followed shortly by Takato crashing into Kai. He looked a little worse for wear, but the fact that he was even alive after a blast like that was rather impressive. "I'm fine." The prince answered again, despite the wound he had taken. He could at least keep moving under his own strength, unlike the others. His stomach was a knot of pain, and he would have liked nothing more than to lay down, curl up, and sleep for a day. He was also coming to the realization that they would not be able to go back for their Father. If he was even still alive, he would not have stayed at the Shrine, and they were all too tired and bloodied to try and track down a Master Ninja who would have done everything in his power to prevent himself from being followed.

"Takashi we'll be able to rest soon huh? Don't bleed out either...not from such a small attack."

Takashi rolled his eyes at his twin's teasing concern. He knew she was deeply worried about him, just as he would be if she had been the one hurt, but was just trying to keep the mood light. "Don't worry about me, Yuuki-chan, just watch your own back. I'll bet I could still beat you in a race to the tree." Despite everything, he grinned at the thought of racing his sibling as they used to as children, though his face-wrap kept it hidden.

Kai grunted when she felt Yamahashi support her and Otoha take Himawari. She managed a small thanks and continued to move forward with the rest of the group. She felt rather hollow and weightless at the moment. A dizzy feeling coming over her and she couldn't stop shivering. In the background she heard The Prince and Princess talking. For now it seemed peaceful.

With a few more minutes, the battered group reached another clearing. A huge tree in front of them. Through blurred vision Kai, studied the area. Nothing twitched or moved like the Iga. No wires either. She sniffed for the familiar scent of gunpowder. Nothing. The area was really safe. "Let's hurry, we'll finally be able to rest."

When Yuuki started complaining that she was useless Piitaa made a note to have a word with her later about that. the brother and sister joking with each other made him think of his own sister, who was also an Iga ninja, though she worshipped the masters and had gone to serve them as they defected. questions started seeping into his mind as he looked around for cover. "has she been killed? has she come to her senses? have i already killed her have the others?" but these questions would be answered later when everything was finished.

for now Himawari had a good idea and Piitaa started looking around for a hut, his main focus of looking was on the ground
"Hio-san, could you look up in the tree, i think your the only one here who could see if a tree house is up there" he wandered around...well with his legs numb it was more he stumbled in the general direction, seeing no hut himself he turned back and sat at the tree placing himself infront of Yuuki

Oujo-Sama, Don't be thinking your useless. all of this was for you and your brother, we knew that we would get hurt or killed and we are ready to face that he gave her a smile that seemed a bit pained but was natural but if you want to feel useful could you help me put my arm back? its dislocated and its too painful to put it back myself. your also helping keep our moral up, im not sure about the others but watching you two joke with each other about racing made me smile at least

"Want to bet Taka-chan?"
He scowled beneath his face mask at the hated moniker, then glanced around. They couldn't actually race, it would be much too dangerous yet. He didn't want her to run headlong into a trap, just in case the area wasn't as safe as they had been expecting.
"I wouldn't want to embarrass you in front of the others." He claimed instead.

"I'm useless. In such a short time, they have bonded with each other already. We're still outsiders to them Takashi.."
He considered his sister's whisper for a moment before whispering back. "That's good. They shouldn't be too familiar with us. I'm not sure we can trust them all yet. Until then, it's best if they regard us with respect. And how are you useless, when you've bonded with me already? Come, when we're safe, I'll let you help bandage my side."

By the last sentence or so, Takashi had stopped whispering, and allowed his voice to come up to a normal level. By that time, too, the group had pretty well emerged beneath the magnificent tree. He stopped to crane his head back and look up its great height, raising a hand to shield his eyes from the falling rain. The others spread out somewhat, with Takato pulling himself up into the branches. He folded his arms across his chest and waited, watching as Piitaa moved over to speak with his sister. The man had obviously been eavesdropping on their conversation, which irked him a little. And what did he think he was doing, asking his sister to put her hands all over him and saying she made him smile? He was going to be keeping an eye on them. It wouldn't be the first time he had frightened off someone who thought they could be a suitor.

Just then, a small bit of bamboo fell from the tree, right onto Kai's head. She seemed to be a magnet for falling objects. At least they were learning to not shout, and announce their location to everyone in the forest. He walked over to the base of the tree after Kai had started making her way up. He glanced up just in time to step out of the way of a platform as it lowered to the ground. An impressive contraption! Once it had settled on the ground, he stepped on, leaving room for the others to ride up with him as well.

In the time she waited for everyone to get on the platform, Kai had been scrambling around the main platform, which was the center of all the branches in the tree and the crows nest. There were shelves and jars of medical equipment still here. Each herb, ointment, and tonic preserved or sealed to perfection. In another corner a cabinet of some kind contained a few dusty futons and blankets. They had near perfect condition, save for the spiders living in one futon. As she dragged two futons to where Takato lay, the Fujiwara ninja collapsed in front of her.

"Crap!" She could smell fresh blood and assumed the shinobi's wounds were open again. Kai ran and inspected the shelves for needle, thread, and bandages. Then she rushed back to Otoha and inspected his wounds. Removing his shirt, she put pressure on the previous wounds to stop bleeding. A few tense moments later she began the first few stitches. Otoha would probably pass out if h hadn't already considering Kai worked the needle in rapid, taunt motions. When she finished her handiwork she placed a bandage over the mess. It would take a bit to heal, but this was the only method. With the little strength left, her small body heaved the giant onto a futon. "You are a fool." She hissed.

Back to her previous mission, she began to drag the futons out so the group could finally rest. As she worked, she could feel her body screaming for her to just sleep. She couldn't. Kai stumbled over to Takato again and shook the shinobi's shoulder. "Grab a futon and blanket. If you sleep like this you'll get killed by the cold." She then took some the bamboo near him and carved a message into it as well. "If your ready, shoot an arrow into the tree." She dropped the message below and it headed straight for the prince's head. Right now she didn't care. "Geez they better hurry up before fall aslee or else they'll have to climb.

Piitaa glanced to takashi who was giving him an odd look, but he paid him no mind when Yuuki started speaking again and wandered over to him.

"For a ruthless killer your quite kind, arigato gozaimasu. Now setting bones, I'm not as skilled as a Fujiwara, but I can set it properly. This may hurt more then it does now, but it'll be better than it swinging around limp." Yuuki had said to him before putting her hand on his shoulder Piitaa winced at that and quickly grabbed a stick to put in his mouth as Yuuki mentally counted

CRACK!!!!!

he grunted when the joint was popped back in, he would have yelled in pain but the stick muffled it, as the pain shot through him his mouth clamped down on the stick making a crack in the stick, when it was over he spat the stick out and wiped his mouth


Arigato Oujo-Sama, he looked at the platform lowering down and then got up, his arm will be fine in the morning after some time to rest, he gestured Yuuki to get on before him after noticing Takashi was on the platform already Do we need to pull ourselves up? or does this thing do it itself? he sat on the edge and let his feet dangle off the edge his hands gripping the edge to keep himself on when the platform would begin to rise Things are finally looking up eh Oujo-Sama?, Ouji-San?

Takashi folded his arms while he watched Yuuki from where he waited on the platform. Just then, he heard a sound from above, and glanced up just in time to catch the bamboo cylinder before it hit him as it fell. He turned it over, reading the instructions they had given him. He didn't really want to resting his bow in this weather, but the massive tree blocked a majority of the falling rain, and shooting a single arrow wouldn't strain his bowstring too much. Once everyone had climbed on, he nocked an arrow and fired at a bare branch where he could easily retrieve the arrow, and wouldn't be in danger of actually hitting anyone.

"Counterweights." He answered simply, as the platform slowly began to rise. There was probably a sack of rocks or a large log tied to the other end of the rope, which would pull them up as it fell. He put away his bow, and once the platform brought them up into the tree, retrieved his arrow. He glanced around at the furnishings of the place, including the futons Kai had already found and pulled out for them. He didn't bother to answer Piitaa, his outlook on the whole situation still pretty bleak. He'd personally been shot, most everyone else wounded. The clans had all turned against them, and their father could very well have been murdered. Sleeping in a tree did not seem like a vast improvement. He glanced at the crows nest up above.

"I'll take the first watch."

For a short while Kai had dozed off. The creak of the platform coming to a halt awakened her. She jumped into a ready position, weapon drawn. Then she relaxed. Yamahashi and the twins had arrived finally. Yuuki smile at her and she nodded with a curious look. Everyone seemed beat. Takashi said something about taking first watch and Kai opened her mouth to object when Uuiki dragged her twin to the medical platform. She shrugged and approached Yamahashi. "Go get some rest. You need it." Then her mouth briefly twitched up into a smile. "You deserve a good rest to. Thank you for all your hard work."

"Hio-chan, Oni-San has a gunshot wound. I'm sorry to trouble you, and you don't have to, but I don't know how to remove bullets very well. Could you please help?" The princess's voice called from behind her. "Um, sure." Kai was tired, but she had enough energy to treat one last person. Even if she was tired, she would still treat the Prince. Of the ninja were to survive, they needed both twins. Especially the male since they held the power. Kai walked to the platform she had found the medical supplies and dug around into the shelves til she found the proper tool for removing bits of a bullet. It looked like a pair of scissors but thinner to pull embedded objects in the skin. They were wrapped in cloth and smelled of a cleaning chemical. "Our luck, everything is ready to be just grabbed and set to work." She grabbed a handful of bandages, went back to were Yuuki was waiting, and handed her the bandages.

Kai then went off to Takashi and gave a slight bow. "Kunosaki-sama. Your sister sent me to removed the bullet." She held up the scissors. They gleamed wickedly in the moonlight.
