Ram was among the ranks of soldiers. The troops awaited news from the Shinobi if the place was clear to take.

Ketsueki moved along swiftly, making nary a sound - and neither did her new comrades. This was good - working with fellow shinobi just as dedicated to their craft as she was. But the air was tense - something was bothering the man, Jou. But she dismissed it for now - they had work to do and had to accomplish the task. Assuming they neared the tower via the similar brush cover from the prior sweep, she would come to a stop low with them.
At least they had a little cover for now with dawn on the rise, but it wouldn't last for long. She would let her eyes glance over every detail of the tower from where they sat: door, windows, weak stones, anything and everything.
Her voice comes out in a soft whisper but her gaze never leaves the tower. "How do you wish to proceed?" Without even awaiting a word, her hands are already moving within the confines of her cloak to retrieve a pair of tekagi-shuko gloves and fitting them over her bracers.

Physical Description: As most women of Katashima are, Kasumi is not terribly tall, and stands at an unimpressive 5'4". She has skin that is considered of average coloration for her people, slightly darker than that of non-Katashimans, and is of a slender build, with delicate features. Her eyes are almond-shaped, and are brown, although the exact hue changes with her emotions, ranging from dark to light and often flecked or streaked with gold; her hair, though often kept up and out of her way, falls to just past her shoulders, and is a sleek, glossy black. Though she appears weak and not at all like one would expect a combatant to be, she is muscular enough to do her job, and do it well.
----------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Typically, Kasumi wears an outfit that is both comfortable and easy to move in. This consists of a sleeveless, midriff-baring black shirt that gapes open at the sides, revealing the bandages wound around her bosom, on her top half; around her neck rests a loose drape of black cloth that can be pulled up to obscure the lower portion of her face. On her lower half she wears a pair of loose black pants that come to just below her knees, with slits at the hips, and held up by a belt, at the back of which are the sheaths that hold her two tanto, her favored weapons. Rounding off the ensemble is a pair of black sandals, the straps of which wrap up her calves to tie just below the bottom of her pants, and a set of fingerless gloves that stretch up to above her elbow, on top of which she wears sturdy steel gauntlets. Aside from the obvious pair of swords, she also keeps a number of shuriken and kunai in her belt pouches, along with small glass spheres filled with various poisonous substances.

The trio came to a halt, and Kasumi did much the same as Ketsueki - assessing the structure for any exploitable anything, as well as looking for signs of habitation. Nothing seemed to be amiss, which was.. odd. Why wouldn't the bandits use this as a staging ground? It was a very good location to do so. Ketsueki's question drew Kasumi's gaze to her, and the other kunoichi looked at Jou questioningly. Did he have any suggestions? No doubt he was eager to get into the tower and get set up so they could finish what was started this morning. "One of us should check the main entrance to see if it is accessible. I sense entrances nearby that are not visible.. shrouded in shadow." She could trace them all the way back to the tower, and they didn't seem to be inhabited.

"I will take the firs floor and work my way up. Kasumi take the top floor and work your way down. Akiyama-san start in the middle and choose which ever way you would like."
This was a standard tactic he and Kasumi had used. Moving to the base of the tower stay to the shadows he bends his knees and cups his hands. With a fling upwards and some help from her wind magic Kasumi could reach the top floor in less than a minute. Then he would climb slip in through the main door, using illusion to hide himself.

Needless to say, she wasn't happy. But her gaze never faltered from the tower - she just made a mental note on Jou's instruction... and the man himself via that order. It seems he completely disregarded the note on the hidden entrances and wanted to scour solely the tower, and her ordered task seemed... lacking. As if just an odd man out not really needed and given something to do. No matter which direction she took, it would leave someone without the back up and no aid. And which of them took precedence over the other?
Perhaps I won't be needed in this pair's future tasks. I don't even believe they need me now.
The two in question moved towards the shaded side of the tower, and she trailed behind after releasing the clasp of her cloak - revealing the dark clad kunoichi armed to the teeth with dark hair pulled back. She followed them. Jou gave the female a boost up before moving towards the front door... leaving her to her own devices. She watched him slip away.
Very well. She kicks up the wall and proceeds to climb, surprisingly with little sound. The claws in her palms do well to carry her higher up until she finds herself close enough to a midway point. She takes great care to peer inside the small window, just in case something or someone was there awaiting her or even just taking up residence in the room. If the coast was clear, she would crawl right inside.

All would be clear, as it seemed the bandits had never valued this tower to occupy it. It was dusty inside, and there were signs of animals, bird nests even in some windows.

Kasumi nodded at Jou's instruction, and hurried to the side of the tower with him. Gathering magic in her palms, she placed her foot in his cupped hands, and when he sent her skyward with a titanic upward thrust, she supplemented the flight by releasing the magic in her hands, which sent her arcing up onto the top of the tower. After setting down silently, she sought the nearest access point - whether it be a window or some sort of trapdoor in the tower's roof - and moved inside. Scouring every room, she would steadily work her way downward, level by level. The place was.. empty. How curious, that they would leave such a potentially useful spot untouched. Very odd, indeed.

Jou found the bottom floor equally abandoned. He kept his guard and wits up until he met up with Kasumi and Akiyama. At which point he looks at them concerned. This watch tower was completely empty, had been for a while. That was deeply concerning. He looks at his two compatriots and says grimly.
"If this place is abandoned there is only three reason's I can think of. Our enemy is stupid. There is something wrong with this watch tower I can't see. Or this is some kind of trap. Kasumi I didn't pick up on it at first, you said there were secret entrances near the cliffs? We should check those out before we report back. On reflection it would have made more sense for Akiyama-san to take the top floor and you to check the hidden pathy ways. My apologies, Akiyama-san I am unused to working with more than one partner. You must have felt like a third wheel."

The only problem with the tower so far was that it was damaged on the top levels, which this could be fixed.

Ketsueki would note the heavy absence by the accumulated dust to every floor, and she opted to ascend a level or two to see how the tower was crumbling from the top down. Afterwards she slipped down the floors until she joined the pair of them again. Jou's apology is met with a silent nod for now. Instead, she simply listened to the pair of them - and it was, indeed, curious why this place was untouched. A part of her was paranoid - aside from the fact the place was falling apart, there wasn't really anything to be found that told of why it remained abandoned.
"... do you wish to find the outlet in the cliffs first, and trail it inside? Or try to hunt out the exit from in here? Regardless of either... I would advise keeping someone at either end, to work as watchmen if anything new develops while the passage is explored."

After joining Jou and Ketsueki, she listened to the words the two exchanged, her mind mulling over the possibilities. Finally she spoke. "I can easily move through the shadows within this building and into the shadows near the end of the tunnel. As for the entrance on this end, I can lead you there easily. I can feel it." It was deep below them and swathed with shadow, after all. Gesturing idly to the two of them, Kasumi then led the way toward where she could feel the passage below them. Tapping into the shadows there, she drew them upward, tendrils of darkness writhing up through the cracks around a disguised trapdoor. It was pushed upward from below, and then she dropped into it. Melding into the shadows, she disappeared, reappearing at the far end of the tunnel and looking out over the village in the valley below.

"Hai."
Jou agree to Kasumi's plan without complaint. After all he has zero desire to travel through shadows again. Together with Akiyama he moves through the tunnels until he meets up with Kasumi again. It was become increasingly apparent that this place was deserted. What was going on?

There was a pile of fresh bones near the exit, meat still on them. While the tower had not been entered in a long time, someone HAS been through these tunnels. Upon further investigation, more tunnels can be found branching from the main tunnel. You can find subtle evidence of people passing through these branching tunnels, parts of the tunnels were illuminated by little glowing insects that burrow through the walls of the tunnel system.
If you were to explore further you'd hear echoes of a large cavern ahead.

The tunnels illuminated a couple things as they traversed them. She made note of the branching spiderweb of tunnels... but it was at the end that brought her gaze to a sharp leer. Fresh remains, the only thing that wasn't old and covered in dust. Her nose scrunches as her brow furrows, the smell... barely tolerable. It was one thing for a very recent kill and not having to deal with the bleeding body...
Her gaze would shift to look back up into the tunnel, where the other passages were winding down. "... I'm inclined to believe that something's down in those tunnels, and it's the reason our little bandits haven't come to occupy this place. What say you on how to proceed?" she asks quietly, shifting her gaze momentarily between the pair of them.

Kasumi looked concerned. Which was extremely rare for her; the kunoichi was usually very careful not to display any emotion at all. But between the remains, the intricate system of tunnels, and how abandoned everything was... "There is a large open space of shadows ahead. Some sort of cavern, I think. If there is anything in these tunnels, I cannot sense them. And that makes me uneasy." Things that could hide from being perceived in the shadows might give them some serious trouble.

Jou takes in the expanse of the cave system. It was massive and intricate and a massive security risk. Down the line it may be quite valuable, but while they were still setting up the caves could do more harm than good. A notion further proved by the evidence of some sort of beast in the caves. Once they meet up again with Kasumi he voice his opinion in a low voice.
"I am of the opinion we should simply block off the tunnel for now. Once Nishida-Sama has secured a firm hold in this area the caves may be quite valuable. However, I don't think it would be wise to try and map out and control these tunnels that the locals may already know. Not while we are fighting those same locals. If we block the tunnels we can likely leave the monster extermination until later. Kasumi, would you communicate with Nishida-Sama and ask his opinion?"

"You would risk whatever is in those caves being so near the warlord's soldiers?" she replies quietly, and perhaps a bit too hastily. But the idea of trying to ward the potential threat into those tunnels, namely making it a prison, sounded too dangerous. They knew nothing of what it was or what it was capable of.
"... forgive me," she mutters after a heavy breath. "It is your mission, the both of you. I'm here to help. Whatever you decide, Okamoto-san."

"Hai, I will address Nishida-sama. Give me a moment." Sinking into her meditative stance, she branched out into the shadows, and manifested that shadow shape of herself near Shintaro. Once assured she had his attention, the shadow began to speak - mouth unmoving, as ever. "Nishida-sama. There is an intricate system of tunnels under the watchtower. One of them opens onto the cliffside above the village, another moves into a large cavern, and the rest are unknown. Jou-san has proposed that we block off the entrance from the tower into the tunnels and wait to explore them. Akiyama-san does not agree. What are your orders?" Then the shadow would fall silent, and await a response.

Shintaro was outside with the troops awaiting news. When the shadow appears he listens to the news and responds. "Yes, my informant told me of these, he mentioned there may be offshoot facilities from the Watchtower. If you are to seal any part of the tunnel, seal the exit. If the rest of the tower is secure I can send a party down to check the rest of the tunnels, if you believe that is needed."

The shadow was still and silent as ever, Kasumi's consciousness within its form listening to the orders given. Then it replied, motionless. "Hai, Nishida-sama. The remainder of the tower is secure, so feel free to send the troops in through the visible entrance to take possession of the structure. I will convene with Jou-san and Akiyama-san and we shall proceed accordingly." It vanished, and Kasumi stirred from her meditative stance, rising to her feet and turning to look at both Jou and Ketsueki.
"Nishida-sama says that if we seal any part of the tunnel, it should be the exit to the valley. He has said that if we do not feel capable of exploring or clearing the tunnel, he will send down a force to do so. Perhaps we should see to it while they are taking control of the tower."
