And I'll Rise Like the Break of Dawn![Travel]

[Captain M]

Kijo no Shimo is on the move!

Yuki no Kuni was an island nation off the coast of the mainland of the known world. In its perpetual winter, it did not see many tourists except for the fauna and flora. Hunters and traders also made their lives along the coastline. That would be their direction, heading directly south along the land until they fell upon one of the many fishing or merchant towns. Nieve wore her usual blue coat and skirt, on top of it was thrown her regular lab coat. Her blue hat, per usual, hid her seal that crowned her forehead. Her butt-bag was hidden beneath the lab coat, just above her derrière. It contained six kunai, fifteen hira-shuriken, four frag grenades and six smoke grenades. Her umbrella was set along her back in such a way that she could draw it out quickly without fuss.

It took them close to three hours to make it to one of the nearby fishing town. There was only one ship at the docks and the small stand set just before it seemed to be selling fish from another nation. "Fresh fish from the land of Whirlpool!" The merchant declared. It seemed as if the small travelling band of shinobi would be lucky.

"Will you be returning to Nami no Kuni, kind sir?" Nieve asked the merchant as she placed both of her hands in her lap, she figured it would make her seem like a kind and genuine individual.

"I sure am, why you asking, pretty lady?" The man asked.

"We wish to procure transport to the land for a mission. My assistant and myself are medical ninja. We can tend to your wounds, ills and pains as payment." Nieve suggested. Having used the same method before, it was one that was tried and true.

"Eh sure, just don't get in our way, we're leaving at midday." The merchant declared. Nieve nodded toward the man and walked up the bridge into the fishing boat.

[Muu]

Everyone Likes Traveling! / /Hass Has to Ask!

        The frozen land to the north, thats where Muu and company were departing from. Accompanying Miss Nieve, Muu carried his typical shinobi gear and accessories. Compete with his double Kunai holster on his thigh, where he kept his two knives for the time being. HIs tanto rested in a holster at the small of his back, hilt sticking to the right. He had his butt bag under it, hanging from his waist containing his fifteen hira-shuriken, smoke grenade, ten exploding tags, six LED flash lights, and scroll map of the known world, and finally his six meters of wire. He didn't have much, but he had plenty to suit his needs.

Not to mention his real weapons were his Kaishin abilities and mind. He was a dangerously clever little prick when he needed to be. Muu observed as Miss Nieve split off and talked to a fish merchant trying to sell fish form the land of Whirl Pool. No doubt he could trust his mentor to aquire passage on her own, he trusted her enough for that at least. He looked around with his lazy eyes as he waited to find out the result of her talk.

When she nodded and proceeded onto the boat, Muu followed, casting the sucker stick from his mouth and stuffing his hands into his pockets. He didn't like sailing all that much, but he'd had good experiences with it before. Hopefully this wasn't his first bad one, he considered as he boarded, only to await the midday departure to the land were their mission would begin.

The Genin trudged through the bitter cold and the heavy snow, his black boots dragged through. His demeanor was different, off at that, and he did not seem his usual self-- where now he honestly should be flirting with Nieve or chatting with Muu. Perhaps it was the mission they were assigned, and that was right. "We have to kill? Why can't we apprehend 'em, or something?" Sighed Katsu, he shook his head and continued to walk through the snow lands. Very few pine trees littered the frozen tundra in Yuki no Kuni. Katsu's white coat, which was designed with light blue stripes and a few pockets had kept him warm. Underneath a casual black tee shirt is taken into account. A black scarf, however, covered that black tee shirt and wrapped around the teen's neck.

Katsu's Yukigakure headband, tied just around the forehead, was worn with pride-- he was proud of his village but the objective of this mission was completely irrational. The coat hung down just near Katsu's knees, his legs covered in puffy green trousers, the snow accumulated just around his black combat boots. In several little slots in the Kaishin's robes carried fifteen hira shuriken, four kunai, as well as eighty explosive tags. Team Nieve neared the docks, where the blue haired kunoichi conversed with a salesman. The crew boarded the boat the fisherman oh so kindly provided. "Here we go." He reassured, with a steady breath. They were headed to the Land of Whirlpools.

[OOC: I was in class, nu fair!]

[To land of whirlpools, please!]

[Father 'Suke]

Moved to Land of Whirlpool

[Captain M]

Kijo no Shimo, fabled explorer!

A new land that Nieve had never been to, how this was exciting! As the boat stopped by the the Whirlpool fishing town, Nieve disembarked. Muu and herself had aided all of the sailors with their aches. One man had three broken toes and was still working every day to make sure there was food on his family's plate. Another had had severe fever and had Nieve not been there, the man would have been unable to do any work. With that she walked out of the boat and looked at the surrounding area, this was barely a town, only six homes all lining up the coast.

"Team Nieve, move out." She ordered once more. The whole team thing might have had a nice ring to it in the end. The blue haired kunoichi had never really wanted a team. She thought that she would be content with Muu. But Katsu could also be quite useful. She would put his use to the test it seemed. With that she set the pace. Nieve began running, never turning around to see if the green haired and ebony haired shinobi were in pursuit.

Time To Get Those Hands Dirty!/ /Who Needs to be Made Dead?

        This voyage had been more of a hassle then his other travels, having to actually work was a pain. Mostly minor ailments, but still a bore none the less. Muu was ready for more exciting matters, like this mission, to really get underway. Finally, arriving at shore in a new place, it was time to begin. Miss Nieve took control quickly, thankfully, and gave the order to move out.

She didn't wait for them, and she didn't have to, for Muu at least. The green haired kaishin was over the side of the ship and on her heels to the right of her, as her right hand where he belonged. His lazy eyes watched their surroundings even as they left the coastline and traveled into the unfamiliar land. He trusted his leader knew where to go. He wasn't completely sure what would come of this, perhaps a confrontation, maybe death. If you had confronted Muu with death a year ago, he'd trembled at the thought of taking life. However, even in his young age, after his recent training and initiations in the Kaishin, the idea of death at his hands didn't concern him as much now... He absently considered how the others might feel about that as they traveled on towards their goal.

The boat rocked and they set off for the Land of Whirpools, Katsu looked out to sea. It was not a boring trip, as the sailors had given the trio work to do to keep them occupied. Katsu appreciated the kindness and performed the labor without complaint. It was also a good thing to keep his mind off of the mission. The boat docked and without a minute to waste, Team Nieve made their way into the land.

Katsu's mind was fogged and clouded, he could not properly put together the pieces to this puzzle. Kill someone, really? Imagined the Kaishin, it was something he could not bring himself to do. The trio took off at a high speed, and fortunately Katsu managed to keep up. Muu, his younger cousin, something was up with the child. Surely the Kaishin showed concern for his cousin, however he did not know him all to well. The teen decided to keep quiet and continued to follow the two.
