Strategy?
Baki had a bad feeling about this.
Their only goal to restore Suna's influence in the shinobi world.
Whatever the hell that meant.
The Sound Kage's speeches appealed to all the young turks spoiling for a war
While Baki's warnings fell on deaf ears.
So here he sat with his students inside Konoha, depending on a coalition force led by Sound.
No military goal.
No exit strategy.
Shit they were screwed.
Battle
Baki was rigid in his seat.
The Uchiha kid was unbelievable.
Gaara was out of control, his wail otherworldly, both pitiful and hideous.
Temari was slack-jawed, Kankuro gripped the railing in front of him.
The unthinkable had happened.
Gaara was wounded.
Both siblings cleared the railing, standing instantly by their brother's side.
A chill ran down Baki's spine as he realized how close they were to the monster inside.
Retreat
It had all just gone to hell.
'Abort the mission!'
That's what he said.
But if they could have read his thoughts it would have sounded like this…
Get the hell out of here! Get out now! Take Gaara some place safe, safe for you, for him. Safe FROM him. I'll hold them off as long as I can. I'll do everything in my power to protect you!
