Listen 13+13 = 26 Sense Chakra 1+4 = 5 (woo! I'm dimly aware of a very close chakra signature... it's within 1 meter! It's... my own!)

Shinku can see, not fifty feet from where he is, a patch of Teio Tomatoes glowing with a faint aura of chakra. They seem to be fully ripened.
Other than that, none of you see, hear or sense anything out of the ordinary.
The man on the ground grunts as he falls back down to the earth, his strength depleted. He whispers, "Thank... thank you..."
And then falls unconscious.

After checking to make sure the man is breathing, and okay, Shinku gathers his tomatoes (getting extra if there are any).

"Kenma, will you return to the village and seek medical help? Shinku and I will watch over this man. I don't think we should wait." Nakashima says as he walks over and stands next to the giant man's body.

Kenma shouts out "Of course Nakashima-san, I'll be back. If you can enter the twilight barrier before I return, I'd suggest doing it."
With that Kenma speed off to the village, seeking to acquire the help of any capable nins (specifically medical nins) he encounters, and if none are found, proceeding directly to the Yuugukage's abode to find aid. He tells any where to look and what to look for, and continues to the Yuugukage to deliver the full report (regarding the unarmed [heh] man) to either the leader himself, or at the very least, someone close enough to report it to the Yuugukage in his stead. Simply because Kenma feels there is something deadly serious about that chakra he felt... something unnatural that requires higher-up attention immediately.
(and he runs carefully)

After foraging what supplies he can find outside the barrier, Shinku returns to the two that remain outside it with him. "Nakashima-kun, do you think we can carry this man? It would be best to try to bring him, and us, inside the barrier again, if possible. Its right over there, lets try it now, before Kenma returns." Shinku attempts to lift the large man, under one of his shoulders.

Kenma heads back through the forest, and while not literally, he does run into Nokemono Saigo, who's chakra he recognizes from the number of times he taught at the academy.
"Oi, Kenma-san! What are you doing by yourself out here?"
After Kenma explains, Saigo's voice becomes odd and distant. "Shin-kun is outside the barrier with a stranger from another village? Kenma-san. Go straight to the Yuugukage. Do not let anyone stop you. If they do, tell them you found a turnip, and it was orange."
With that, Saigo bounds away, leaving Kenma all alone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shinku has difficulty collecting the overly large tomatos, but he does finally gather two of them properly, making the list complete.
Nakashima and Shinku can still hear the man breathing, though in pained gasps. He's alive, for now.
Picking him up, however, is another matter. For some reason, even unconscious, he's still not letting go of that scroll. Which is making it hard to get him in any easy position that the both of you could carry. He is also, without a doubt, very, very heavy.
((OOC: Strength check from both of you. Listen checks as well.))

((OOC: Please keep track of your chakra. I will, at random points, be checking to see if you have over exerted yourself. If you have, your character will immediatly fall unconcious for in game DAYS!))
Nakashima seems to be able to lift the upper half of the man with some strain, but the muscular man is still very heavy. Shinku attempts to help out, but the clothes are so tattered and ripped, and the man's frame so bent over and injured, it is difficult to find a safe and usable hold.
Nakashima feels that he could probably drag the man closer to the barrier, but it would certainly hurt the man's feet and legs more, and probably take a few minutes.
Shinku looks up and sees the etheral curtain of the barrier, stretching far into the sky. It looks like a solid sheet of chakra, so thin and clear, it's almost imperceptible, even to his chakra sight, but the flow wavers in parts. At the same time, he sees what Nakashima is seeing; a pure stretch of forest that lies straight ahead. Nothing interesting about it. Might as well move along.
"Shin-kun! SHIN-KUN!" The voice of Saigo shouts from inside the barrier, though he impossible to see.

"I am here!" Shinku raises his voice to say, but refrains from yelling, as he knows the older man is not actually all that far away. "This man is injured, and he is holding something that seems important!"

Saigo's voice gets closer, and though it's fuzzy, you can kinda make out his chakra network whenever the barrier wavers. It looks like a spider's web. In fact, it is a spider's web. It's not worth looking at again. Time to get going.
"Shin-kun, get away from him. Nakashima-san, you too. He's from another village, and obviously ninja. He might be faking it. Probably set this whole thing up hoping someone was watching." Saigo's voice is concerned, but not very much for the man on the ground.

"Maybe so, but I don't think he is. And if I'm right, he's badly injured. Someone needs to help him!" There is a note of begging in Shinku's voice now. He is obviously very concerned.

Kenma proceeds directly to the Yuugukage as ordered prepared to report everything as he'd seen/heard/sensed it... although he refrains from using the turnip excuse under all but the most dire of circumstances, instead sticking to the original story unless truly barred from going somewhere, at which point he reluctantly and confusedly uses the orange turnip statement.

Two guards stop Kenma from entering the Spire Office, but his mentioning of an orange turnip has them both snapping to attention, as one leads Kenma in and the other pulls out a kunai knife for a more ready use.
The guard, who Kenma has trouble sensing, leads the young ninja up the stairs, until he hears Genki's voice, "What's the problem, Kenma-san? I expected the three of you back half an hour ago. Where's Shinku-bozu and Nakashima-san?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"And if you're wrong, you're in a lot of danger." Saigo still isn't trusting anything. But you do see a hand suddenly appear in the middle of the forest, glowing with chakra. "Quick, take my hand, both of you. I can't hold the barrier travel jutsu for very long.
If you must... if you must bring him... then be quick about it. And at least take out a weapon of some sort if you have it in case he attacks."
