"Shut the fuck up! You seem to know a lot for how expendable they see me given you've barley had any interaction with any of them." Tayuya spat, but even if she had made an open jab at Takato's claim over how expendable she had been viewed by the sound she could not deny that there was some begrudging truth to certain aspects of what he had said. Hina's presence, even an unseen presence made any prospect of an escape to Oto one filled with risk. Especially if she tried to say bring Kiro or the Jinchuriki even if the latter offered no resistance. Much less Takato on top of that, so while she had no idea what Kiro had in mind she figured it was better to roll the dice and see if he could manage to sway Takato or not and held back her tongue.
For the moment anyway.
Takato himself had a frown as he listened to Kiro give his big speech about this situation and about what he desired more than anything. Trust. And ironic term given what Takato had read on Kiro's file but his tone appeared to have some genuine feelings and in truth he did outline the core dilemma; his options were to wait and pray for Hina to show up before his shadow possession wore off or let go and see if Kiro had been true to his world. Takato took a moment to consider his options and the words, before he reached behind him to his special pouch; placed just above his lower back in a spot most ninja did not carry anything so that even if Tayuya & Kiro copied the movement with the shadow position they'd avoid getting anything of note.
"Well, either way no matter what I do I seem to have a bit of a short straw. But, since everyone else seems to be gambling here I suppose I shall as well." Takato said, and before he said another word his shadow detached from both Kiro & Tayuya. Though he kept his item he pulled hidden from their view as Tayuya felt her body regain its own control before she turned to face Kiro & Takato as she naturally had a hand on her drawn flute. Though she had yet to act as one could cut the tension in the air as she waited to see what Kiro would do it appeared even if her gaze mainly lingered on Takato.

Sakura behind the flame wall saw the gesture Taiyo made as he had his finger lit and immediately knew what he had in mind. First thing first through she decided on a unique method to prepare for it given Zaku's own attack as she flashed some hand signs for a jutsu preparation behind the fire wall.
Soon, it appeared the flame itself wrapped around the trio covering every inch of their position to create this spinning shield around them as the sound bullets & sound wave slammed into it from underneath them with violent force and sure enough the flame dissipated and drifted away. Out of the snuffed out fire it appeared Sakura had used this chance to jump to the side along with presumably Raiku & Taiyo a moment before the underground shot connected as they appeared to to try move to the right side and get to the trees for some cover.
Kakashi himself raced down the Rashomon, Sharingan revealed, as he scaled down with frantic speed while he made some hand signs of his own as electricity crackled around his hand and wind began to pick up.
On this occasion, Kakashi hoped he was not too late.
