Sunagakure Gates

[Tetsu]

As Amira walked forward, the young Kazekage prepared to meet up with the pair that she would be working with to Guard the gates. As she approached the large ravine that represented the great divide between the sand village and the rest of the world.

"Gah..." She muttered as she looked down her flak tactical vest that was representative of her Shinobi rank. The tactical vest held quite a few of her important gear pieces as she ran through the gear that she so happened to carry with her. Her Breast scroll pockets were filled with two smoke grenades, 80 explosive tags, 80 fake explosive tags, and 40 sealing tags. Her walkie-talkie was fixed upon her Chest as well. Her quadruple knife holster housed four Kunai knives, which acted as her side arms. Her type one butt bag housed three slots of bo shuriken, a pair of binoculars, four stun grenades, six extra kunai knives and a fragmentation grenade. Amira herself held the appearance of a sand Shinobi for sure as she sported her headband on her left arm.

As the Kazekage approached Solomon talking to the Guard whom would simply nod before switching off himself, relieving the guard to the trio. "It's all yours." the fellow said as he walked back towards the village.

"Hey there." Amira said as she approached Solomon. She still carried the tracking device in her butt bag that would show the fellows location of she ever really needed to know. "So kiddos, ready to get to work?" She asked ironically as she looked at Claire with a mischievous smile. "So here is what I was thinking, since we all have comm devices, we will each take up a position along the gate to provided the most protection, and keep each other informed of everything going on... The standard protocol." Amira said pointing at Claire first. "Use your big ass Turkey and circle over head to give us a literal bird's eye view." Amira chuckled as she nodded to the huntress to express her gratitude for being such an interesting character.

"You my dear Solomon will be the fellow at the front who will ask for credentials...as well as kick the ass of anyone whom requires such." She said firmly addressing this fellow with a new tone of authority that her request for Claire had lacked. This fellow was obviously a soldier, and treating him like any less would be an insult. "Is that understood soldier?" she asked as she herself decided that she would climb up on the cliff side and watch the pair to get an idea of how they operated. Amira awaited responses from the pair as she prepared to step back and let the Genin do their job. She was just going to be there to observe after all, and step in only when needed.

CLAIRE VANDALINE I'LL WORSHIP LIKE A DOG AT THE SHRINE OF YOUR LIES I'LL TELL YOU MY SINS AND YOU CAN SHARPEN YOUR KNIVES OFFER ME THAT DEATHLESS DEATH GOOD GOD LET ME GIVE YOU MY LIFE And just like that there were three, all ready to take over the gate duty like responsible young...old...middle aged adults? Regardless, Krogger swept the skies as Claire had long ago ordered him to do, his shadow tiny again the hard packed, sun baked earth that crunched underfoot. Solomon, the stoic monolith and Amira....the lady who Claire knew absolutely nothing about. Matter of fact she didn't event really know the last Kage so this was even more comfortable than before. A bunch of strangers united under one cause. Wooooo..yeah....no. That was they goal. Claire was here because her hunter cell LEFT her here to patrol and keep Suna safe from the infernals but let's be serious...it's the middle of the FUCKING DESERT! Like one person can patrol the whole damn thing, let alone shut down or respond to every single sighting. There was a nest around, had to be, but there was no way she could take it down alone. On to happier thoughts though, she had taken to brandishing her rifle bow, checking the lense cap, the slide, making sure everything was in working order. Everything was working in perfect harmony....before the Amira Nation attacked.. 'Blah blah, do this, do that, blah blah, Solomon, you seem like a stiff, do everything I say and respond to me with Yes Sir because Ma'am is not appropriate when speaking to your superiors, blah blah!' was all Claire got out of this all, but the turkey comment? Oh no, that came through loud and clear. With her back turned to survey the broad expanse of the desert grounds, turkey hit her in the back of the head like a sack of hard potatoes. So she wheeled around real smooth like, eyes narrowed as if to suggest maybe, JUST MAYBE , she had heard wrong. Bemusement and disbelief all over her features, even her cloak and hood were drawn back and the goggles shifted up into the vibrant magenta locks of her hair. "Oi! Let's just get something clear, yeah?" With an accusatory finger jabbed at this authority figure she marched forward, onward, coming up half a meter away. "Krogger is an Eagle. A beautiful, majestic, regal, powerful Eagle. He is only a turkey when I say he's a turkey, got me? You uh, picking up what i'm puttin down lady? You shuckin what i'm jivin'?" That last part completely nullified any and all tension in this entire ordeal if she even knew what shuck and jive meant. Likely not, not too many people did these days... The silence persisted..."Also I already have him circling overhead, not our first rodeo, you just uhhh pick a post and don't worry your darling head Lady Kage, there's not a chance in Hell anyone unauthorized is getting through here with me around, especially with old man Gung Ho over there." A thumb towards Solomon. Then it hit her, the walkie talkie radio thingie... she didn't even bring hers, so had intended to ditch it AFTER the mission...it was in that moment Claire knew...she fucked u--- "Yeah i'm going this way." And crisis evaded with an about face and a smooth shunshin.  Venator Passives SPOILER: Click to show Exploit Lore Rank: "C" Skill: Supplementary Effect: User can use their knowledge of a creature's weakness to deliver a driving and relentless assault against it.

As Claire came up to her and began to correct her as to what her bird was, Amira tried to suppress the urge to laugh. It wasn't that she didn't respect Claire, or her bird, it was just that the huntress's tone was hilarious. As soon as Claire started to say things like you shucking what i'm jivin', Amira couldn't help herself but to break out laughing. "yeah, I hear you loud and clear Capt..." She said laughing pretty hard at the phrase that Amira assumed had something to do with corn. As Claire explained that her Eagle, Krogger, was already doing that portion of the patrol, Amria nodded in agreement. "alrighty, sounds fine to me Claire-San" Amira said utilizing the honorific for equal to let Claire know that she validly respected her opinion and faith in her Krogger. 

Amira couldn't help but smile as Claire called Solomon old man Gung-Ho, which made her laugh even harder. letting herself have a moment to calm down an recompose herself, she quickly responded. "Claire-San, I have faith in both you and Solomon...I shouldn't have gotten all up on you all like that, because I forget sometimes how skilled everyone is sometimes." Amira said rubbing the back of her neck as Claire decided to shunshin away from her. "oh well..." Amira said with a shrug and a sigh as she walked back over to the edge of the divide like gate so that she could watch the pair in action. She would sit there inert until someone actually showed up, or something actually happened.

CLAIRE VANDALINE I'LL WORSHIP LIKE A DOG AT THE SHRINE OF YOUR LIES I'LL TELL YOU MY SINS AND YOU CAN SHARPEN YOUR KNIVES OFFER ME THAT DEATHLESS DEATH GOOD GOD LET ME GIVE YOU MY LIFE Amira seemed like a pretty chill lady, not too serious like most Kage but not so lax that she wasn't without some order. There was just something in the way she persisted to give orders...like she were...what's the word...naive? Sand didn't seem to be doing far too much these days, no natural enemies that she knew of and likely Amira was ignorant to the demon infestation beneath the sands. Curious bit of information there... Was the infestation bad enough for her to bring it up to the Kage, someone who just assumed the office while she was away, the same demons she had been left here to eradicate? That made her sound almost incapable or lazy, like she needed all of Suna to be locking their doors at night or something... Then again the way her village had been slaughtered came to mind. Dead of night, all quiet, everyone turning in when the pentagram fires started, the wailing screams, that putrid smell of sulfur and brimstone... Claire was on the far side of the gate, staring down where the heads of Kage's past lay impaled upon many spikes all long bleached bone white and bare by scavengers and the sun alike. As much as she entertained the idea of it she likely was not going to say squat about the demons unless she absolutely had to, or there was just a moment to point it out that 'Hey, your city is sitting on top of a massive summoning circle, have fun with that' or something along those lines. The day was long and the time was crawling by, there was nothing to do and as much as Krogger flew around overhead he didn't report anything other than he was hungry. "You and I both buddy..." She mumbled up at the skies, dropping her vision downwards to scan the far off sands for signs of anything at all. It was hard sometimes you know? The sun could play with ones vision, mirages, flickers, glimmers of coin and dust but there was one thing she knew for sure. Demons always looked like fucking demons. As her goggles swept around and the sands kicked up on her end of the gate where she saw the severed head stakes from the side, imps kicked up and Krogger let out a short caw of acknowledgement. "Krogger, eyes on me ya bloke!" She called up, turned, run towards the Kage and went about this as nonchalant as she possibly manage. "Lady Kage, since I have no idea what your name is, would you perhaps like to get a better view of the desert? You could be surprised the gems that lay out there." Overhead Krogger screeched again. '50 meters and gaining distance' was what it sounded like to her and likely headed towards Gust for the sake of causing mischief. The thing about imps? Always heralded bigger problems. She had encountered imp on her revisit of Rain recently... jesus and she didn't even follow up after she had slain them... the thought put a knot it her guts. So she had to leave less up to intuition and more up to being a pushy brat. "Actually, I insist you follow me, I have been noticing a thing or three of interest I know you would certainly like to see." She held out a hand, her magenta hair blown about by the winds of Suna with the other hand raised in the sky, a loud whistle to follow. "I suggest you hold on tight too." Her vision swept towards Solomon Gumpy over there "You want to ride along, we are going to be flying right overhead, not going too far just vertical. It's important to the village and I know you looooooove protecting the village, eh, eh, eh?" A waggle of the brows. His answer would just mean she had to make two sweeps, but this was indeed important.

"Ugh...so much sand." Amira said with a sigh as she took out a pair of binoculars and looked down the lenses to find that the wide expanse of space that surrounded Sunagakure immediately  was as barren as she had expected from the god forsaken land of Wind. "you know, sometimes I wish something would happen." Amira said quietly to herself as she looked over to see Claire talking with her bird. Solomon was probably doing as expected, and standing century as he was suppose to, like a good soldier. Amira nodded her head as Claire suddenly began to run over towards her unexpectedly. 

As Claire addressed her, Amira actually forgot that not everyone knew her name. "Oh you fine, you can just call me Amira though," she said giving Claire her sire name. "Lady Kage gets to be a pain after awhile." Amira said with a laugh as she processed what Claire had offered. Amira thought back to the only other time she had been airborne, and how terror filled the experience was. It probably didn't help that Amarante the Konohagakure police chief had kidnapped her, to a literal sense, and had had some chicken of a bird carry her by the talons. Amira was apprehensive about going airborne again, and weighed her options as she fought with her own personal fear. 

It was in this same moment that she realized how much more fun it would be to ride a giant eagle than it would be just hanging around there with Solomon acting like a statue. In the end, after Amira had weighed what was presented before her, She nodded with approval. "sure, sounds good to me, and definitely sounds better than hanging around here." she said letting her chaotic nature take root. After Claire insisted, Amira nodded again, "Hey, you have my vote, lets ride an Eagle!" Amira said excitedly as she looked over to Judge Solomon who was also offered the chance to get on and fly up as well. "Solomon, you have permission to go if you so desire." Amira affirmed as she followed Claire over to Krogger, who was definitely a bird worthy of riding. 

"Hey there Bud, sorry about the whole turkey thing." Amira said with a laugh as she would chose to climb onto the back of the bird only after Claire mounted. "you probably eat things like that for breakfast...literally." Amira said with a chuckle at her own joke as she would wait for Claire to mount her lovely bird. The young Kazekage found herself feeling anxious about the flight that was probably about to happen any moment after they mounted Krogger. "So...this is safe right?" Amira asked as she grasped onto whatever she could get a hold, be it something on the back of the bird or Claire's waist. Amira was determined not to fall of the back of this bird...there would be now falling allowed this time. Before they took of, she put her binoculars safely back into her butt bag and prayed to God that she would not fall. She felt her pulse rising as she awaited the inevitable lift off.

[The Judge]

"It's all yours".

That was the command given by the previous commander of post. Solomon stayed quiet as he began to take a look around, examining, getting a feel of the area.

"Hey there." the Kage spoke out from behind Solomon. The Judge slowly turned his attention to her as she continued.

He stood quiet before reaching for some paperwork, he skimmed through calmly before speaking "Ready," in his rough, gruff like voice. He continued to listen to the Kage as she came up with a plan. He heard her speak about his position, being at the front. He was the first line of defense. This was the position he wanted and gave a nod. "Affirmative, on my way," he continued in the same tone as before. He ignored the fact that she called him a soldier. The Judge was not a soldier. He was something more. He considered himself as the stick, and the shield of the Village. He was simply a man of law.

Before he would move forward he heard the anger of Vandaline. Well perhaps it was not anger, but more annoyance. The Kazekage did basically insult the bird. He just stood there, quietly. The feel of displeasement emitted from him as he watched Vandaline trying to ease any tension at the end of the scolding. He continued to listen to her until he heard the word "Gung ho". Solomon tilted his head towards her.

Solomon could not get a grasp out of this woman Vandaline. Was she serious in becoming a protector of the city? He questioned her integrity and her sense of duty. He just stood there, watching the two conversing with each other. He was about to turn and walk away once again before he was stopped.

"I suggest you hold on tight too."

His head turned towards Vandaline once again.

"You want to ride along, we are going to be flying right overhead, not going too far just vertical. It's important to the village and I know you looooooove protecting the village, eh, eh, eh?"

There was no smile on his face, but she could not see it. He straightened up slightly, hands to his sides. Without skipping a beat he spoke. "No. Just radio in if you see anything peculiar." he said calmly before bringing up his left arm up to his face. "Solomon to control," he spoke into the radio.

"Control." spoke another voice from the opposite end.

"Taking front position at the gates," he finished before turning around, and headed to his post.

[She of the Mighty Bow-Gun]

CLAIRE VANDALINE I'LL WORSHIP LIKE A DOG AT THE SHRINE OF YOUR LIES I'LL TELL YOU MY SINS AND YOU CAN SHARPEN YOUR KNIVES OFFER ME THAT DEATHLESS DEATH GOOD GOD LET ME GIVE YOU MY LIFE That was a negative from Solomon. She liked him. He was cool...kinda quiet... she'd handle that later though. Maybe steal his goggles. So they waited for her bird to descend, Amira was practicing her speech that she'd be giving Krogger when he finally came down to sweep them up. She didn't even take the hunter hand which was...paramount if they were to mount the bird in the first place! So, against better options, she just snagged the prestigious elected LEADER OF HER VILLAGE and held tight with he free hand raised. Krogger took to the signal after the whistle, aimed from her raised hand and in a flash of feathers and the beat of wings swept them up into the air. Her hand caught his saddle and Claire all but hauled the woman up into the saddle first, taking a seat behind her, having mastered the art of airbourne riding. "Hey, look relax." She had to somewhat yell as they ascended into the air at a massively steep angle, the wind whipping. Her arms had to hold the Kage around the waist to keep from any unsightly accidents from happening like... falling off. They climbed and climbed, her heel dug in to throw Krogger into that double speed so they could level out at 200 meters quickly. When they came out of the swell she made it her business to cackle and yell out a smooth belt of laughter, grinning broadly. Whatever Amira needed to do to get her nerves calm she was welcome to do but for now Claire was buckling her into the saddle, extra buckles, more buckles, buckles on top of those buckles. She wouldn't enjoy that 200 meter plummet if things went wrong."Alright Amira, I need you to focus please, this is very important and one of the only reasons I am even in Suna to begin with." With the saddle secure she fished around he back to retrieve her Riflebow, loaded with a razor fletched sting tip bolt. Without aid Amira was going to miss this whole thing. So off came her goggles that she loved so much, their setting set to maximum zoom, pinpointing out while Krogger screeched. "How far out you dumb turkey?" She chided playfully, an answered squawk and she readjusted the goggles to 150 meter, that gave a 20 meter gap for her proposed imp to show up, plenty of wiggle room for mistakes and such.Properly calibrated she handed them over to Amira and pointed. "Put these on and look in the direction we are facing down at the desert floor, it is very much important." IF and when complied they could carry on with this mission that... she should be doing all by her lonesome.

As Amira prepared to recite her speech once again for the bird, she suddenly found herself being scooped up by Claire. "Hey! Careful!" She shouted more in jest then in any sense of seriousness. She felt her body tense as she realized that she would be flying on the back of this giant bird that may or may not decided to drop her off at any time whatsoever.

"Hey, look relax."

Amira heard Claire state behind her as she suddenly climbed into the air with the bird traveling vertically. "Is it that obvious that I'm not use to this!?" She shouted back holding on for dear life onto the saddle, onto Claire, onto whatever she could get her hands on that wasn't part of the bird. Amira felt her fear bottom out as she looked down to find a 200 meter drop just below them. "Why did I agree to this!" she shouted as se looked around for a moment before taking a few sets of deep breaths. I'm the damned Kazekage, I shouldn't be acting like this...She thought to herself a she straightened herself upright.

Amira heard Claire shout over the wind and the Terror as suddenly she returned from her sudden moment of shock. "Put these on...look in that direction...much important" Was all Amira heard over the wind and that fear as she slowly reached back to take the goggles, and fixed them on her face. "Woah...neato." She said suddenly distracts by the goggles as she conquered her fear to look down at the desert floor.

"What am I looking for exactly?" She asked as she scanned the direction they were heading for a while, not seeing much more than sand and some innocent looking imp like creatures...wait what?! Amira thought to herself as she had to double take before she could even comprehend what it was she was looking at. "what are those!?!?" she shouted back at Claire as she pointed in the General direction of the ugly looking imp creatures.

(Hey I know I missed the IIC, just skip me if I miss it.)

Solomon headed out to the front of the gates and stood guard. He waited calmly, silent to himself. The sounds of the wind brushing against the sands echoed across the lands. He did not wait for the other two to fly but he did wait ahead. Now came the fun part of doing a mission. Waiting. Security positions were never glamorous. They were in every essence, the type of position a person would normally loath.

One by one a man, a woman, a merchant, or someone would walk by waiting for admitance to come into the Gates. In a simple routine Solomon would begin by checking their papers, radioing in to Control giving a description of the person and began to search any cargo if there were any. After searching he would give the All Clear but not before having their images taken and allowing them to enter inside. The life of a Law Enforcement agent was never always glamorous.

CLAIRE VANDALINE I'LL WORSHIP LIKE A DOG AT THE SHRINE OF YOUR LIES I'LL TELL YOU MY SINS AND YOU CAN SHARPEN YOUR KNIVES OFFER ME THAT DEATHLESS DEATH GOOD GOD LET ME GIVE YOU MY LIFE The way the bolt released felt so good, like the crack of a still joint, that pain of knowing what you just did, might have done, what could have gone wrong all washed away when the success was done. In these moments Claire couldnt be reached, she was elsewhere in the world, soaring in the clouds with out Krogger, without the Kage, just her and this mission she took up for her own reasoning, that fueled the angry little fireball into motion every single day whether she knew it or not. "Huh?" And then she was back to Earth. "Yeah I can teach you how to shoot, it's simple really but the stances you will find hard to d from the back of a moving Eagle,we will have to still our motion for all of that." Not happening, the imps were getting away and her eyes were unfocused, keeping in mind how fast they typically ran, hideouts, locations, her trusty bow loaded. It was a marvellous thing a bow, how something so simple and manmade could kill that which was clearly inhuman and not of this world. She completely ignored the inquiry about her glowing weaponry and acted like she didn't even see it, even as it continued to glow. "..." She turneda sharp eye at Amira "Are you freakin blushing, woman?"  What was this, highschool? That was just lame in all ways possible to explain! However, if it kept the woman off her tail and focused on the imps at hand...who would complain? Not she, that's who.

Amira looked back at Claire with shock as suddenly she was holding a crossbow in her hands, and the goggles were being removed from her head. “Are you sure?” Amira asked as she allowed Claire to guild her hands around the crossbow. She felt herself blush a little bit as Claire securely laced her fingers around the crossbow. An actual bow would be a little different to handle; however in this case, Amira assumed that the basics were all the same. As she found the holding of the crossbow more comfortable than expected, Amira quickly allowed Claire to guild her movements. As her body twisted ever so slightly towards the target so that they could aim more effectively, Amira wondered if Claire could actually hit a target from way up here 200 meters away. Feeling her grip on the bow becoming comfortable once again as Claire helped her body’s posture with her own in directing her in how to hold the bow. With her finger slowly being maneuvered towards the trigger, with Claire’s hand over top guiding her action, Amira began to feel the natural born marksman in her come out.

Taking a deep breath, she did her best to hold the very openly aimed posture with her body as Claire’s crossbow suddenly began to glow. “Um…is it supposed to do that?” Amira asked subtly as she fought with her body to keep the posture as still as possible so that Claire could still hit the target. As she took another breath, she paid close attention to how the arrow itself began to glow. The bright light blinded her a bit as she had to force herself to look and hold the position once again as she did her best to stay in the posture that Claire had so gently put her in. It made it a lot easier when one was strapped in as well as she was though, so there definitely was no fear there when Claire reassured her of the good their actions right then and there were going to be. As she exhaled, she heard Clare do the same behind her saying something. “Divine work? Well I suppose we will have start focusing more on the extermination of these…beast within the land of Wind.” Amira said as she tried to focus on the objects that were much too far away to see. In fact she had no clue who Claire was able to see them as she focused on holding the bow up with her arms and keeping the balanced posture that had her leaning away slightly from the enemy. If it had not been for Claire being there and her being strapped in, she would have probably fallen from the saddle using one of the bows she kept at her home.

Suddenly she felt her finger being pushed towards the trigger. Letting the fluid motion happen, she prepared herself for the bow to release, allowing the bow to release its bolt towards the targets that were further away then she could comprehend. She held her stance as best she could as she hoped that Claire’s accuracy was as accredited as many claimed it to be. Amira felt some wind blow across her face as the razor tipped arrow sailed through the air and slammed into one of the imp unknown to Amira. “That was pretty cool, I think I’ll have to explain this to Solomon when we get back.” She said convinced that the village would have to start taking action against these creatures. “Claire? Do you think you could teach me how to shoot as well as you do?” Amira asked holding the crossbow in her hands in the aftermath before handing it back to Claire carefully. “I mean, I’ve never done it before…so maybe it would be helpful to know how.” She said quietly with a blush before turning back to look straight ahead, avoiding looking at Claire while she responded to her. This experience had really been good for her, after having been in such a hard place with the Rain village and living with constant threats the past year or so.

For Heero so he has something to do for his mission ^_^

Solomon was the ideal man for the guarding of the gates. He did everything by the book perfectly; which made everything easier for everyon in the tower. As Solomon would successfully lead people thought the process of entry, he would notice that the cloaked figures would begin to approach with nothing more than what they wore on their backs. One fellow was openly wearing sword while the other two seems to have single knife holsters strapped to their legs. As they approached Solomon's position the fellow with the sword would lift his hood up to revel a crooked smile. "We wish to ask entrance into your village?" The fellow asked allowing his hand to fall down to his blade's hilt. "Or else..." He said trying to act intimidating

After what seemed like an eternity the siren's godlike figure could be seen in the distant sand storm. Her eerie pink colored irises still shinned brightly yet her body demeanor expressed one of annoyance and lack of personal substanance. Grumbling under xer breath xhe glared at the approaching gates hoping xer project managers would be nice enought to feed their village project. A nice and elegant meal of fruit and meat was nice and all yet the succubus needed somethin else. "only if there was a fool to drain" xhe muttered desiring any once of chakra at the moment.

[Enter from Village]

Jin carried his rifle crossbow and wore his usual attire along with his type 2 utility belt. In the utility belt he had 2 medium sized magazines filled with 5 slots of bolts each and another already loaded in to his rifle crossbow. 150 bolts in all that had Togari-ya arrow heads with a basic shaft and leather fletching. In his shoe he carried a letter that was sent from the Hidden Leaf to the Kazekage which he felt the need to deliver himself for trust and security reasons. Never could be too safe he thought.

He walked up the first guard post towards one of the anbu as pulled out a approved mission slip for Guard Duty as the anbu radioed in signaling to a few poeple before he gave a shoving thumb to Jin for the all clear. With that Jin headed through the dark abyss that was the gate to the Hidden Sand shrouded in utter darkness until he made it through to the front of the gates were a fellow shinobi waved to him before disappearing and leaving his shift. Jin would wait at the gates spending the rest of the time checking on any passers who seek entrance in to the village. He would have look through any and all forms of identification and inspect their person. Along with that and of course merchants would inspect their bags and merchandise for anything suspicious and would record anything that caught his eye with a report of the person.
But for now he aimlessness waited for any and all things that would surprise him.

Isamu and his new teammate approached the gates at a trot. It wasn't proper to keep the Kazekage waiting and the embassy was a long ways off. Isamu's form was one he had recently begun to prefer. He wore his hair short and black in a crew cut. When he was younger he had favored longer hair because it was such a challenge to make it behave realistically, but he had found his new haircut to be infinitely more practical. Though it had no bearing on his strength Isamu's body was well toned, befitting someone with his skill in taijutsu.

Over a tight fitting black t-shirt Isamu wore his tactical vest with six kunai strapped to its exterior. On his right hip over a pair of loose grey trousers was a pouch with 12 shuriken in it and on his left was his katana and its scabbard. In his ear was his ever present wireless radio. On his back was Isamu's most dangerous weapon a large and remarkably plain gourd filled to the brim with sand. On his feet Isamu wore a standard pair of shinobi sandals. Finally his forehead protector was carefully fixed above his brow. He found the headband annoying. It was his only piece of attire not made out of sand and he often struggled with where he preferred to wear it shifting back and forth from his upper arm to his forehead.

Isamu thought about what his new partner had shown him outside the Kazekage's tower. Her abilities really were quite something. The vines reminded him of a technique he used to create long piercing tendrils of sand, often from his own body. Only he could never dream of creating and controlling so many as she could. The mental strain and focus required to manage all of those vines at once had to be immense. Her position on her clan's council also went someway towards explaining why she was only now beginning her career as a Genin.

As they approached the gate he slowed to a brisk walk. The ANBU guarding the gate did not usually appreciate being charged at. Isamu began to cast his eyes about looking for some sign of the Kazekage and remarked to Azamii, "Your clan's ability is remarkable. I've never seen anything quite like it. It must require an immense amount of focus to control all of those vines at once."

Isamu paused only briefly before expanding on his own abilities, "As you might imagine I am a master of sand ninjutsu, but I am also a master of Busosen," As he said this he patted his katana in case she had never heard of the form. "and I have received hand to hand to hand training in Goutetsu. I also have some small ability with the wind and earth releases." With his full credentials laid out on the table Isamu decided to ask Azamii about the late start to her Shinobi career. He knew it could be a touchy subject so he tried to do so in a tactful and polite manner, "If you don't mind me asking, when did you graduate from the academy?"

[Azamii]

Azamii kept her pace with the tall sand man, a smile on her face with the occasional push of her long blonde hair out of her face so that it would stay flowing down her back. Her white and gold attire with blouse top, loose legged trousers and appropriate footwear for a ninja were all tailored around her vine ritual allowing ease of escape to each vine as and when it would be need. She had no items on her other than her headband which was worn loosely around her neck and the letter she had been given for her mission which was tucked into a pocket and zipped up.

"Your clan's ability is remarkable. I've never seen anything quite like it. It must require an immense amount of focus to control all of those vines at once."

Azamii blushed a little as he complimented her abilities. "Thank you Isamu, your abilities are astonishing too. The further the vines get from me the more concentration it takes that is true but I rarely have to use all my vines at any one time. Though after about seven or eight years with the vines it sort of just became second nature. I'm guessing changing and holding form with the sand would too but again it has become a second nature there too?" she asked inquisitively. Before he replied to that though he began to explain some more about his abilities, apparently this sand man was very well diverse with his techniques.

She guessed he had the ability to use earth and wind like she did, after all anyone capable of manipulating sand ended up being able to do both of those... at least in her experience.

"If you don't mind me asking, when did you graduate from the academy?"

"I guess hand to hand is good for you seeing that they can't really hurt you unless they get a lucky shot..." she started to picture a little in his head what he might be like in a fight. Very useful is all she could think of. "I graduated from the academy about six or seven years ago when I was just eleven. Though instead of going straight into the shinobi world I started working for the B.I.N.G.O company in their Herbalism department. I have knowledge about every Desert and Coastal herb available.. of which I'm hoping to find one.. The Codia. It's poisons paralyse people's muscles and I would like to absorb it before we get to where we need to go.. you never know when it might be needed... so tell me Isamu, when did you become a Shinobi?"

[Christoff]

As they spoke Isamu continued to look about for the Amira. He was careful to return his attention to Azamii often so as not to seem aloof. Isamu had a particular interest in biologically diverse humans, those with clan rituals and bloodlimits, he struggled so often with the question of his own humanity and could not help but feel that the answer somehow laid with them.

"Your point about my own form is true. It is difficult to manage when I was younger but with time  it has becomes natural. I suppose we are similar in that way."

There were complications to this of course. Many young Sadojin males went through a period where they toned their forms to comedic levels, appearing almost impossibly fit. However, most of them moved on from these affectations. These forms felt like costumes, and few Sadojin lived the lifestyle that would otherwise earn such an appearance. Most reverted back to forms that suited their lifestyles more comfortably. All Sadojin seemed to eventually develop an inner identity that they were most comfortable with. Some were skinny others were fat, some were handsome others were plain, and though they all could appear however they wished these were the forms that felt truest to who they were.

Isamu had changed his form for a month shortly after graduating. He had been beaten in a sparring match and made to feel weak. Especially as an adolescent when you can change anything you don't like about your appearance it can be tempting to think that will solve your problem. But it never seemed to work that way. After he lost once more he dropped the guise and dedicated himself to training his body. His strength training differed from the physical regimens of most humans. Isamu had increased his abilities through the study of bio-mechanics, physics, efficiency of motion, and by straining the limits of his form. Still even today he struggled with the insecurities of youth and the temptation to bury them superficially.

Azamii's explanation answered many of the questions he had been wondering. He thought it was unusual for a fresh academy graduate to go to work for the BINGO company, but then again her abilities made her uniquely qualified and to be on her clan's council at this young age she must have been very bright. She impressed him. She continued,

"I have knowledge about every Desert and Coastal herb available.. of which I'm hoping to find one.. The Codia. It's poisons paralyse people's muscles and I would like to absorb it before we get to where we need to go.. you never know when it might be needed... so tell me Isamu, when did you become a Shinobi?"

Isamu was mid-glance and had yet to see any sign of the Lady Kazekage at the gates but they were drawing ever closer to the long gap in the walls. The Sadojin turned his full attention back to her as he answered, "If it wont take too long I'm sure the lady Kazekage wouldn't mind looking. We may even find it along the way to the capitol. As for me my parents wanted me to be a merchant like the rest of my family. I didn't enroll in the academy until I was 13 and I didn't graduate until I was 16. That was nearly six years ago now and my career is only now beginning to take off. You're lucky to have the chance to catch the village leadership's eye so soon." The last observation was meant to be encouraging and he hoped she took it as such. Isamu ought to have taken the Chuunin exams years before but the clan leadership and his family were protective. They didn't want to risk losing him, but he knew he was more than prepared now and he would have the Kazekage's backing.

A flutter of movement at the end of the long passage caught his eye. Something big had landed outside of the walls. Isamu pointed towards it, "Something just landed outside of the gates let's check it out." The young Genin continued to make his way down the passageway with his I.D. and mission slip out and at the ready for inspection.

[Tetsu]

Claire & Solomon

As the ground came back within reach, Amira felt relief wash over her. Quickly unstrapping herself from the saddle as Krogger made his landing, Amira quickly rolled off the saddle falling onto the ground with a thud as she did her best to get off of the big ass bird. “Claire no offense, But I think I’ll stick to walking for a little bit longer.” She said with her face in the sand as she slowly pushed herself off the ground to find a pair of shinobi approaching the gates. Solomon had remained silent as he always seemed to do as the pair approached. She quickly shot up to a standing position, and dusting herself off from her fall as she did her best to look presentable for the people of her village. As the pair approached she put on her best smile and slowly turned on heel to walk their way.

Isamu & Azamii

“Yo!” She said with a wave as she smiled happily in the pair’s direction. She quickly picked up her pace as she moved quickly towards them as they seemed to be having a good old time discussing whatever it was that they were talking about. There also seemed to be that weird green cloaked guy that she had met while out vacationing for her birthday. How odd, she thought to herself as she realized who one of the two people approaching her were. “Ah, Isamu-Kun, good to see you again!” She said greeting her squad mate with an almost tackling hug as she only came up to about the fellow’s lower torso seeing as he was so tall. “What have you been up to?” She asked quickly pulling away as she noticed the girl he was traveling with. A sly smile crossed her face as she noticed that she wasn’t just some run of the mill girl either, she was quite pretty. “Isamu is this your girlfriend?” She asked excitedly as she bowed her body forward placing her hands behind her back as she inspected the woman.

Sniffing the air, she smelled an interesting mingle of her watermelon scented shampoo, gritty sand and something like how a blackberry bush vine would smell. It was definitely an enticing interesting mix of scents. She loved how Isamu’s sand smell and the leafy smell of this woman collided in such an interesting way. She had become familiar with the sand constructed fellow as a member of her squad as they had completed a few missions and even went to the rain village together. She looked mischievously at Isamu and then to the woman again to see how they reacted to her blunt comment. “Anyway, She should be, It would be so CUTE!” She quasi-shouted, putting her hands up to her face to hid her smile as she daydreamed about Isamu and this woman going out to lunch and doing couple things.

“Anyway, what brings you both out here? Going out on a mission or something?” she asked unaware of anything in regards to the pair’s appearance. They would probably have to inform her of the approaching meeting at the embassy if there was to be any hope of her being let in on what’s going on. She tiled her head to the right, giving them a confused look as she didn’t know what it was that they wanted. Amira was also unaware of the important document that Jin Tai held within his shoe. With a smile she awaited the pair’s response.
