Shinoskay, at first, felt the world pull away from him as he heard the two talk. Thankfully, the mention of possible beheading would likely, easily, cover the panic he presently demonstrated. The idea that they were going to travel into the castle, to anywhere, casually would mean that this strange energy signature that was making way towards the small band would have an easier time getting to them and the idea of meeting this threat with unfamiliar individuals just sounded like death. He knew he just revealed he was the target, he felt a slight ping increase in panic over this as he knew that this meant they would likely think about the possibility of abandoning him so that they would not have to face the same threat... in particularly since they had just talked themselves out of a threat and had an easy exit.
Nothing in this situation was good for the boy, he knew this and the only thing that kept him from hyperventilating out of panic was that he felt his bee's comfortingly nestled against him. He wasnt alone, he was never alone, he had already had a good position near a viewing dip in the tower wall that would allow him to easily lean over and fall off if he really felt like trying an escape. The scenario would turn things ideal for him and his many flying allies....
And then something else peculiar happened, a surge of chakra quickly began forming in Akihiro's left, concealed, hand. Something was about to happen, it made no sense that he would use a jutsu if he intended to take his escape option. He had an out, he could just walk and be good, the only reason he would form a jutsu is if he intended to fight. Suddenly, everything snapped back and the world became clear and in focus. The panic had not left the genins face yet and he was still going white from it but in this very instant he snapped to action. Now there was the start of a surge of chakra in the more astute shinobi's right hand, it seemed more formed and developed, more complex, and this meant it would be something big. Shinoskay Formed another 50 bee's in the time it took for the Chuunin to form those hand seals and then in the moment the spike of chakra stopped, the moment shinoskay sensed the moulding of the chakra was done, he sent out 100 bee's all at once. He would burst them forward and towards the many targets at 20 bee's a target. He was already forming more bee's to send at the same time. In tandem to releasing the bee's, Shinoskay would also send two copper kunai forth, one for the main pumpkin guard who had been talking and one for one of the pumpkin heads not next to Zurui.
The timing was good, the moment he did this a burst of wind would cast itself out from the Uchiha and, coincidentally, this sent the bee's off with the many pumpkin heads. Most importantly though, this blast of air would cause the bee's to fill their mouths and so any and all screams would be muffled and stopped... only a dull mumble, the roar of the wind, and silence would be heard as the many pumpkin heads and their accompanying bee's were launched from atop the tower. The bee's the very instant they came in contact with the surface of the pumpkin heads, whether inside or outside, would immediately begin driving their stingers into the strange, mystical, threat. The bee's would not be limited to one sting, as these constructs werent so limited, and would repeatedly sting and bite and swarm until either the bee's or the pumpkin heads were clearly destroyed.
Assuming the Pumpkin heads were defeated, Shinoskay would immediately glance off the edge of the tower to try and ascertain the situation just beyond the ledge. He wanted to make sure there was no flying threats to be concerned about, he didnt sense any at this time but who knows with these strange creatures. He would also direct the surviving bee's to return to him from the Pumpkin head fall... if any, and if there were surviving bee's then they would also be directed to carry his kunai and the pumpkin heads weapons back to him.
If the pumpkin heads were not defeated then he would immediately do his plan of leaning over and slipping off the side of the tower, catching his feet on the wall while activating tree climbing jutsu, to stand off the ledge where he would be out of the way of the two upper rank'ed shinobi fighting the pumpkin heads, his bee's would still swarm in and aid the fight, of course.
Either way, he would also ready 2 more kunai before turning towards the entrance to the platform the three shinobi would stand on.
