With the final *pop* of the doll opening, the room suddenly filled to the brim with dark smoke. Tooru coughed aggressively and waved at the air in front of him, accidently hitting something or someone.
"Hey!" A voice yelled from inside the smoke. Had they unsealed a person? As the smoke began to clear a bit, Tooru realized that he had been feeling raindrops on his head. Outside? Apparently the seal on the doll was even more complex than he had imagined, if it included some kind of summoning or reverse summoning technique - but it wasn't sealed very tightly anyway. With his left hand he felt around in the smoke and found Kakesu, at least he assumed. "Looks like it took us up top, somehow."
A loud and low rumble started coming from further ahead, almost like the purr of a cat. In fact, it sounded exactly the same but deeper. Someone screamed a few feet ahead of them and then an ear-piercing bellow sounded out. The smoke was blown by a shockwave of sound, nearly knocking them over.
A giant tiger-like creature stood in the middle of the Amegakure street, a man pinned under his front foot. It stared them down and scraped its' other paw on the street.
"Uh-oh." Tooru said weakly.
"Run!" Grabbing Kakesu's arm, Tooru started darting down the street as the sounds of chaos and yelling started behind them. Loud pawsteps could be heard chasing them as Tooru dragged Kakesu into an alleyway, narrowly dodging the cat's snapping jaws. "Can you do any 'magic' to slow it down?!" he yelled as they ran down the alley.
