Raikou ran through the maze that seperated him from the outside world. he didn't have time to look at his paper saying where to turn and where not to. He needed to hurry! He let his nose do the sniffing and leading to get through the maze. Aya ran quickly behind him as the made a left, a right, through, right again, left... and they're out! Raikou smiled as they made their way from the Base. They needed to take a boat in order to get to the Fire Country and then through to the Land of the River. Raikou was impatient and couldn't dally, he was supposed to be there in two days! It'd take one just to get to the Fire Country! Probably another to get to the River Country! How the heck was he supposed to make it in time?
Raikou ran through the trees and passed by many civilians walking along the main path to the docks where he was going to rent a boat. Aya stayed on his tail... in a mannor of speach, and followed him closly to the front desk where Raikou was going to purchase the tickets. After a short filler episode of Raikou arguing with the man who ran the counter and doing god knows what kind of chores to pay the man off for lack of Ryo on his person, Raikou finally managed to get on the boat headed to the Fire Country. Raikou wasn't all that used to ships and stumbled all over the place, bumping against everyone and almost vomiting into the sea.
End Day 1
Finally, the boat docked at the port sometime early the next morning... it looked like it was still night, but the clock said otherwise on the other office of the ship line. Raikou thanked the captain and ran off with Aya. They needed to hurry, it wasn't a straight line from there to the Land of the River after all... and Raikou needed to get there ASAP or he'd be late for his first traveling mission! Raikou stuck to the trees when he could by jumping from one branch to another. That was the fastest way for ninja to travel, however, Raikou wished there was another way to get there... Perhaps a mode of transpertaion that went ever faster? Raikou shook his head. He was just imagining things again.
It was night before Raikou knew it. Last night he had gotten minimal sleep, but now, he was dead tired as he continued running to the Land of River. Of course, Raikou and Aya hadn't run the whole way without resting... anyone who ran would need breaks, however, they made sure they were going to make it on time. Raikou sighed and looked over to the direction of the map that had been given to him in the mission details. Looked like he was going to a place that was on the borders of the Fire and River Countries. Perfect... he be able to make it in time to take a nap!
Raikou continued on and finally reached a town with a bridge in the background. Raikou blinked and looked at the map. Was... this place really it? It... looked kinda like his home... had he really traveled all the way to the River Country? Raikou blinked and walked towards a person who was passing him.
"Hey! Where are we? What country are we in?" Raikou asked.
"That's easy!" The person replied. "We're in the River country! And you must be one of those ninja who were going to help us! Oh... we've got a big dilemma... but... first you look tired... here! Spend the rest of the night here! You'll feel better in the morning!" The man smiled.
"Oh! Thank you! Don't mind if I do!"
