A large, unhabited plain located around the top of a mountain. The clouds loom closely above it. At the end of the peak the mountain just drops off into a black abbys, from which there is said to be no return.

Hirose appeared within the plain, silently.

Zattenai appeared in front of the Raikage, a piece of grass in the catch of his mask. "We want to talk, Lord Raikage. For now. At least give us that courtesy."
"He is handling this for the moment, Lord Raikage. My ancestor is inclined to ask people politely if they will bow to his wishes..."
"Whereas my descendant is more inclined to demand that people either bow to our wishes or be shortened in some other manner, usually in the same general area."

Indestructible Determination that is incorruptible from the other side... Cody came running up and stopped next to Zattenai and Semedai . a terror to behold Annihilation will be unavoidable....

"You are asking...if I will join you?" The Raikage asked as he casually tucked his hands inside his pockets. The harsh winds of the mountain blew his hoodie around, making the skeleton pattern rattle around. However, for a strange reason the wind never let the hood raise high enough for the others to see his eyes.

Zattenai's mask didn't change a single iota, but it almost looked... shocked. "We've never had someone ask us that before. But since you ask, no. We're full up at the moment. We've been... how shall I put this..."
"Contracted by Lord Mizukage to assassinate you, or at least weaken you to the point that his men can finish you off."
Zattenai sighed when he heard Samedi give such a blunt version. "I wasn't going to put it quite like that, but yes, that's essentially what we've been asked to do. However, we're merely after the Niibi that you host inside you. If we can have it and if the Mizukage's men don't find you within the time it takes you to wake up, we will have fulfilled our end of the bargain, at least within the limits that his letter specified. You will, I stress, survive the process unharmed, though fractionally weaker for the ritual."
Samedi drew his 'sword.' "I feel obligated to say that we value your cooperation, mostly because we do. It will make things faster."

An ominous wind swept through the grass as the Raikage's silently thought about what the men before him just asked. Then, he sighed boringly but spoke in a serious, cold tone. "I see. Just an assassination attempt, cloaked with bribery and international affairs, how boring." He reached inside his hoodie, and pulled out the horrific site of the former Amekage's head, which he apparently still possessed. "Perhaps more heads are needed to demonstrate why attempts against me never succeed. Now gently, I welcome you to the death you are long overdue for." A great cloud of poisonous smoke suddenly shot out of Hirose and hid his figure as it eneveloped everything in the area. He then made a superior smoke clone next to him and made some handseals. Out of the cloud of gas, two smoke dragons roared out, glared down at Zattenai and Samedi, and blew even more clouds of the poisonous smoke at them, leaving no room on the ground that wasn't safe from its poisonous touch.
((Chaos smoke, Superior Smoke clone, Smoke Dragonx2))

Zattenai sighed and simply let the smoke pass through him, his Pass Without Trace ability invaluable in this situation. Samedi simply created a swarm of petals and rotated them rapidly, blowing the smoke away. Zattenai stood in the middle of the smoke, breathing calmly, Antares shining in his hand. "Within a hundred feet of this sword no violent act will cause harm. I was serious, Lord Raikage. Now please calm yourself. If you agree to our conditions, you will lose nothing except some time and your Biju."

((I got a question before I post....WHO THE HELL would approve a sword that doesn't let any violent acts within a hundred feet cause them harm, at least without some kind of limit or cost? And what is the pass without trace ability?))

((Huntur would, on the condition that Zattenai never enter actual combat. that's why he'll be letting Samedi take you down if it comes to that. And Pass Without Trace allows Zattenai to pass through any nonorganic object. Organic objects aren't much threat, since his skin is as hard as steel. Like I said, I'm to never use him in conbat because of his abilities. He can't be tracked, he can't be hit with anything but a fist, and a fist won't hurt him.))

((Well, at least that's one I don't have to worry about. I'm pretty confident I can take Samedi down too, since genjutsu is the main thing he's got going for him and that won't work on Hirose.)) Though he couldn't exactly trust what Zattenai was saying to be true, Hirose hid his chakra and appeared 110 feet away from his position before, his kage-level stealth granting him the ability to practically vanish off the map. The two smoke dragons continued to thrash about in the air boringly, generating and spewing large quantities of poisonous smoke into the air, where it slowly drifted down towards Samedi and Zattenai below. The the fierce winds of the plain, even as Samedi tried to blow the smoke away, it would just bounce back towards him. This was the only indication to Hirose that perhaps his smoke would have an effect of him. Between the dragons filling the air with their smog and the cloud of smoke surrounding the plains, everything in the area was now within the smoke's blinding grasp. It helped the Raikage to relax a bit. "Tell me, is there no other way than to either kill me or lose Nekomata?"

((slinky....you DO realize that this entire area is filled with toxic smoke right? Even if you could see Hirose to talk to him, you would be writhing around on the ground dying right now. neutral ))
