There have been rumors about one of our members, Tenten, attacking Uchiha Izuna and Madara. She states that she did not do this, and I believe her. From what I'm told, Snape has confirmed Tenten's innocence to the satisfaction of the Uchiha. If anyone has questions about Konoha's stance on this matter or information about the situation, please come ( Read more... )

Tenten...? Really?

Why would someone do that, and disguise themselves as...?

[Tsunade's lips are drawn into a tight line.]

Put simply, we don't know. I'm assuming that someone is trying to stir up trouble, but I'm not certain who or why.

[Pause.]

My name is Alphonse, Ms. Tsunade.

The Konoha-nin have been good to me in my time here. I'll help you however I can. I'm no friend of Madara's, but if Tenten is being framed, it's worrisome. There's never "just one" attack like this.

... do you have a witness' account of the attack? Any style of fighting that would point us in the right direction? Any behavioral clues would be welcome.

It's good to meet you, Alphonse. [The name sounds familiar.] One of the alchemists, correct?

I'm glad to hear it. The more help we have in getting to the bottom of this situation, the better.

A gun was used for the attack, and the person took Tenten's appearance. That's the majority of what I know as far as details go.

[A nod, a little polite smile.] Correct. I believe I've known Mr. Kakashi the longest, of everyone here.

Absolutely.

[A pause, and his eyes widen a bit, then narrow. Obviously, this tripped something.]

How familiar are the Konoha Shinobi with guns?

[By the tone, this isn't the real question. He's thought of something, and is first ruling other things out.]

You've been here for awhile then, I assume.

[Tsunade leans back, her eyes sharpening.]

Next to nothing. We don't have them.

Two years, come the end of June.

... so I assumed.

Thanks to a few of the others I know about Henge-jutsu and the application of it, but it seems to me that an adult shinobi would be able to duplicate Tenten's fighting style, or at least make it looks passable.

A gun requires ammo, and matching gun and ammunition is hard to find around here. Someone unfamiliar with guns would have had a hard time figuring them out.

... I hesitate to say this, but both the "disguise" and the gun fits the MO of someone from my world perfectly.

Envy.

However, I wonder at the motive.

Mmm. Tenten is one of our best weapon's specialists, but it'd be doable. If anything, a shinobi would have the sense to use a kunai. We're all trained in their use, and it'd be the most logical choice for someone with Tenten's skills.

[There's no surprise on her face at the name, but Tsunade reaches toward the PCD. After a moment, the feed is switched.]

[Private/Unhackable]

This isn't the first time I've heard that name mentioned in connection with this. I know that he's a shapeshifter, but that's all of the information that I have on him. Is there anything else you can share?

Envy is not human. Envy is something called a homunculus. I could go into a very long, rambling explanation about what exactly he is, but the thing is, even I'm not fully clear on it. Here's what's important.

Envy has no soul of his own. Instead, he has a heart that is powered by the distilled essence of human souls. He is entirely without conscience and without remorse, and has a hatred and disgust for humanity in general ( ... )

[She listens intently, nodding as Alphonse speaks.]

Do you know of any potential motivation for Envy to do something like this?

Reply

[Video//Private//Unhackable] bloodseal_soul June 2 2010, 06:19:11 UTC
... no. That's the only bit that doesn't... fit.

I haven't seen anything between him and Madara that would give him any reason for something like this.

Mmm. Good to know. Is he the type to do something like this without any real motivation?

[For several moments, he thinking about it, and then a very wry, painful-looking grimace comes to the corner of his lips, as if he's trying to smile and really failing.]

...

He once played on the tensions between Ishbal and Amestris to start a war that turned into mass genocide of thousands of innocent people.

Apparently, he was never ordered to do so. He just... was bored.

So... yes. It's entirely possible that if he was aware of the tensions between Konoha and the Uchiha clan...

[Al's voice gets hard and bitter here. This is personal to him, somehow.]

Yes. This is exactly something he'd do.

Actually...

Um.

I do know guns. Your Riza taught me. After Joshua shot me. So it could be... that they knew this.

Was the information that the Lieutenant was teaching you unscreened on the network?

[Tenten looks down with a frown.]

Yes. I asked her publicly.
