Scene 14 ------------------------------------------- The Okunenju Plateau

* Two SDF troopers land near the lean-to shelter, but keep a respectful distance. One of them squats to look inside as best he can then nods to his partner.


Shunjun-
This has to be them, General. Two hibernating young kitsunes and one looks to be a silver.

Ootake- Okay. Good. Call the others in and let's set up camp.


* Shunjun straightens up with a slight scowl.


Shunjun-
So now we're babysitters?


* General Ootake looks at the soldier.


Ootake-
When their Father and Uncle finish their mission, they'll come back here to reclaim these kits.. Our job is not just to protect these innocents, but to bring Kurama and his brother to King Enma.. Is that understood, sargent?

Shunjun- Hai, sir.

Ootake- Now carry out your orders.


* The general looks toward the plant-protected lean-to as Shunjun moves away speaking into his wrist communicator. When the rest of the squad arrives Ootake moves to address them.


Ootake-
Our first priority, by order of our King Enma, is to protect the two innocent kit demons hibernating in that lean-to.


* He motions toward the shelter that is becoming more visible in the moments prior to Demon World's sunrise.


Ootake-
But we're not to disturb them.. Without a doubt, their Father and Uncle Kurama have placed some very deadly plants around it. Nobody approaches that shelter any closer than this.. Understood?


* The rest of the troopers readily agree, very familiar with at least Youko Kurama's capabilities.


Ootake-
Our mission, after the adult kitsunes return, is to apprehend the group and take them to King Enma.. Hopefully without much incident.


* The general glances toward a couple that snicker and they quickly resume their attention.


Ootake-
Now then, let's set up camp and make ourselves at home, soldiers.. Who knows how long we'll be here.


* Ootake watches the squad hurry away to carry out their orders, glances back toward the lean-to, then stifles his own displeasure as he rubs his forehead, 'Three hundred years of basic training and THIS..' Ootake notices the glances of a couple of the troopers and squelches the thought quickly.
