Shikanenai didn't waste any time as he went to town on the Sound-nin. He simply sprang from a branch, ninjato reversed in his fist. A second later, while the Sound were still trying to place the killing intent, the Nara's little finger rested against the collarbone of Abumi Zaku, who barely had time to register the sudden pain before 'Nenai removed and discarded the paper sword that had skewered the Sound-nin through heart, stomach and intestines.
Behind the bandages that covered it, Dosu Kinuta's face contorted with shock and anger. "You little bastard!" he snarled. "You think you can take -" Without warning he sent a burst of sound at Shikanenai who sidestepped almost contemptuously out of the way.
There was a sharp crack and Kin Tsuchi's body fell to the ground. Behind where she had been standing, Katsu lowered his fist and raised a handful of kunai wordlessly.
"You were expecting an explosive carnival of chakra-driven carnage?" Shikanenai asked. A second pulse of sonic energy did nothing but shatter the log that replaced him as he employed Kawarimi. Hands seized Dosu's ankles and dragged him down into the soil of the forest. A sharp blade pressed into him and _uncoiled_ inside him, ripping through his lungs.
The last sight that Dosu ever saw was the forest floor as his face was dragged beneath it.
