[Filtered to Shibusen]

There's a large force amassing from the southeast! They aren't Kishin Eggs, and don't appear to have souls at all, despite most of them greatly resembling humans. I'd say they were dead, if my vision didn't prove otherwise. They're accompanied by an aerial force of large birds and 5 powerful souls that appear to be headed directly for the city!

[Filtered to Sasuke, Clare, and Tenten]

The city is falling under attack. Unfortunately, I can't continue to search for them until my district is under control. I'll rejoin you later.

Clare, I truly appreciate your assistance thus far. I won't drag you into anything else unless it's by your own decision.

[Filtered to Watch]

We're under attack. Spirit-san has issued the Watch directives to assist in the evacuation of the civilians, then join their operatives on the field to combat the threat.

[Filtered to Outer Residental Quarter III]

Those of you have partners or even temporary ones, your abilities are put to better use defending the city. The rest of you that have kept hold of your sanity, come with me. We're aiding in the evacuation of the citizens of this district before the force breaches the outer wall.

[Those filters out of the way, Neji turns strung-out eyes to the network itself, speaking over the sirens that flare up in the background]

Morning training is cancelled, and I don't advise anyone come out to the training field needlessly. The district is being evacuated, along with the rest of the city. It's time to put everything you've learned to use.

I--- shit. [And that, that is Spirit hitting something on his communicator that sends the alarms blaring through the city.] How far are they? Did they-- [kill their scouts, who were supposed to be patrolling far outside the city borders.]

Roughly 800 meters--

[His eyes widen, barely-visible irises searching for something as his head turns] Dammit, the massive souls I sensed before have disappeared. I don't know where they are..!

Five witches. [that's a lot, and his face says so.]

Get the Watch to help the civilians to safety and then join us in meeting the threat.

Understood, I'll relay the message immediately.

Take care.

[He wants to give more orders, say more things, but--]

Stay safe, and thanks.

[A nod, attention half on the conversation and half on what's going on outside the city, he cuts the feed to contact the appropriate channels]
