Travel to the Waterfall Borders ((mission))

[bbenjii]

Kagetora started to run happily, when bam! Atenonai was right in front of him. Kagetora jumped rolling to the ground. "Don't scare me like that!" he laughed as he sat on the ground.

Taking Sato's suggestion into consideration he'd nod, "I'm all up for it, I mean you never know what could happen in such a foreign place....we'll need to be at our tip top strength" he'd say with a chuckle.

"Does that mean we can relax here Aten?" he asked with a cute smile.

Kamikaze's stomach let out a powerful groan as he held it with his hands. "Hahaha...you guys will never believe what my stomach just told me." He laughed and rested his back on the tree he was standing in and looked at his team. "I have to figure we are almost there by now anyway...that little race was quite the distance" Kamikaze smiled and looked at the sun. "Then again I have poor map reading skills." He scratched the back of his head and began to sharpen his sword.

[Kin ,Tomonari]

Atenonai dropped off of the branch to the ground. He pulled out the map and looked around carefully. "I guess we could stop here for now. Get out your food and find a spot for yourself to sleep. We will need to keep a watch at night, so I will take the first one, Kagetora can take the second, and Sota can take the last one." He added, "After we eat of course."

Atenonai looked at Kagetora, snapping his fingers as he remembered what was said before. "You're an herbalist, right? Can you see anything off-hand that we can eat? We should save what real food we do have and live off what's around us, just in case."

[bbenjii]

Kagetora was happy about the plan as held held his food-wanting stomach. Looking around he'd nod with a smile, "Yup, I can find some edible herbs, probably make some soup or something, if one of you fetches me some water" he'd smile.

Throwing off his back pack, he'd take out a bowl. "I don't have a holder, so one of you will have to, or I'll hold it over the fire that maybe one of you could make, so then we could have soup, rather than just leaves" he' chuckle.

Walking around, he'd begin to examine the ground, as he'd pick up a few herbs. He even went out to search for edible berries....one that wouldn't make them sick.

His arrival would be soon, of his plentiful search. "Alright I got some!" he'd say excitedly as he'd make his way to the others.

[baisuku]

Kamikaze unpacked his sleeping mat and nibbled on his sushi. "I hope we get there soon I'm getting restless..." Kamikaze yawned and let the air seep from his lungs only to inhale and inflate them again. "So tell me about you guys." Kamikaze sat with his legs crossed and looked at his team. "There's not much to know about me I'm afraid."

[Kin ,Tomonari]

Atenonai picked the canteen he carried from his side, offering it to Kagetora for the soup. "I can use fire jutsu and there's plenty of kindling around here, so it'll be easy to start a fire." He gathered the bits of wood and piled them all on one spot and dug out a firepit around it. After stacking up rocks to make a holder for the bowl, he lit the wood on fire with a very small fire jutsu.

After he had finished helping Kagetora, he cleared away a space of grass and placed a pillow on it, thinking about Sota's question. Not wanting to be rude, he tried to be honest. "Well, I guess... umm... I never really thought about it." He laughed a little bit before continuing, "How about I get back to you on that!"

[bbenjii]

Kagetora smiled glad that Atenonai was helping out. A simple nod with a cute smile was his way on saying thanks. Thrwoing a few of the herbs in the bowl, he'd set it where the stacked rocks held the bowl and the fire began cooking it.

He'd then begin to mix it around with his 'mixing stick' which he used to smush herbs together. Once it reached a bit of boiling, he'd throw in a few berries for flavour in the soup, and mix it around once again. Once it'd finish, he'd look around for something. In his backpack, he packed cups, just in case any of them needed medicine taking, he reached in his backpack, and would find those wooden cups. Pouring soup in to fill the three, he'd smile and say "It's ready."

A questions had been just asked, and it was now Kagetora's turn. Kagetora stared at the fire a bit...remembering his days. He simply looked up and said, "Well I'm nice...friendly?" He didn't know what to say but whatever it was, he didn't want to say his past. Not to people he just met. He didn't even know if he should admit why he was wearing a rainbow bracelet, which is why he kept quiet.

He'd grab his sleeping bag and roll it on the ground where he'd set a travel pillow at its head. Drinking his soup quickly with a burning sensation in his chest after it, he sit on his sleeping bag. "I better get's some rest...after all, I have the middle of the night...one where we're supposed to expect an attack." With a simple nod, he'd lay down and turn on his side, front facing away from them. His eyes still wide open as Sato had him thinking. He just shook his head lightly, where he'd close his eyes, and wait for the sleep to come in.

[baisuku]

Sota takes his soup and drinks it politely. He let out a deep yawn and arced his back. "I'm so tired." Sota laughed to himself and scratched the back of his head again then laied out his sleeping mat on the floor. He bagan to sweep the sticks and things from the sides of his sleeping area then laied down slowly. "Ahhh feels good." Sota kicked off his sandals and laughed.

[Kin ,Tomonari]

Atenonai happily grabbed a cup of the soup and took a small sip to test how hot it was. When he had drank about half the cup, he walked over to the dying fire and threw on a few sticks. The embers weren't enough to ignite them, so he did another fire jutsu to bring new life to it.

The fire grew and cast it's erie glow on the trees around the camp. Atenonai looked around and found a tree that was out of the way but still let him see the camp from where he was. He finished off his cup and walked over to the tree.

Leaning against the tree, he pulled out 4 shuriken and a kunai knife. As he watched, he began to twirl the kunai in his hand, waiting for his shift to end.

[Kin ,Tomonari]

He leaned there against the tree for a while, watching the fire and his sleeping friends. His eyes fluttered a bit, but he quickly shook it off and pushed off of the tree. He closed his eyes tightly and opened them back up, blinking a few times to wake himself up.

After adding some wood to the fire, he returned to leaning on the tree. He started watching the camp again, his vision drifting to the fire. He stared at it, blinking sleepily and yawning. The kunai was still spinning around his finger.

He yawned again and realized his vision was getting blurry, "Ahhhh...So tired..." He dropped a shurikan on his foot, shocking him awake. He made a hushed yelp of pain and hopped around on his left foot until he could steady himself on the tree. He winced as he quickly pulled the weapon from his foot and placing it, along with the others, back in his pockets.

He hobbled back to the camp, threw some more wood on the fire, and gave a light kick to Kagetora's bag. He leaned over and whispered "Get up," to him before laying on the grassy space he had chosen earlier. He probably wouldn't have the luck he had that night again.

[bbenjii]

Kagetora had been sleeping lightly...it was after his first time on a mission. The only way he'd sleep soundly was if he was back at the inn. Though they were team-mates, Kagetora still didn't feel they developed enough trust, therefore sleeping lightly. When his bag was kicked, he immediatly sat up, taking a heavy breath.

"Jeez, try actually setting your hand on my shoulder as giving me a tiny nudge, saying it's my turn." He chuckled getting up.

He waited 'till both of them were sound to sleep. Once they were, out of his sleeping bag he pulled out blankets, laying one on each of his team-mates. Taking a small jog, he'd fill his canteen with water, then come back putting out the fire. Darkness enveloped the area, except for the small light given from stars and moon. He sat equi-distance from his two team-mates, he closed his eyes and began to listen to the original sounds around them. Memorising the noises, he'd await to see if it'd change.

After a while of sitting there, he got up and stretched, walking over to Sato he'd lean over. His hand reached on Sato's shoulder and tapped him a bit. "Oi, Sato, your turn...I hope you had a good sleep" he'd say making sure he was up. He'd return into his sleeping bag, to catch up on sleep a bit.

[Is anyone in this team still active anymore? I don't mean to nudge people to post, but I've waited a while now. Just wondering if I should find a new team or not. I need to get missions done and training done.]

[Kin ,Tomonari]

((im still active, but i guess something happened to sota. I wish he would have warned us he was leaving tho))

[Kin ,Tomonari]

((double post
