[4] Kazekage Tower

[Tetsu]

"of course it's not a hassle dear," The woman would say sweetly as she readjusted her classes before pulling out a mission slip and stamp with the Kazekage's seal on it. Taking the stamp and pressing it to the top right hand corner of the page, a bright red Sunagakure symbol would remain as she took the paper and handed it to the fellow. "it's all yours, keep the village safe now you hear." She said kindly as suddenly a snake like creature slithered into the main hall with a letter that was sealed with not only that of Konohagakure, but some other odd seal that the clerk would not be familiar with. "I have to inform lady Kazekage immediately." The woman said looking form the snake to the young fellow. "hey you! You're going out to the gates anyway right?" She asked taking the sealed letter in her hands as she looked at the fellow. "would you mind taking this to the lady Kazekage while you're there, It's of vital importance." She said extending the letter to the young fellow. "Don't open it, it's for her eyes only okay?" the clerk said sweetly with a smile as she expected the fellow to help her out.

(Jintai your mission has been approved, You may also deliver the letter for an additional reward of 5,000 Ryo and a "D" rank mission credit if you so chose to do so)

[jintai]

"Understood." Jin would have said accepting the letter with a quick then would have disappeared from the room. From then on he would have sped away towards his house needing to collect his gear before heading to the gates."

Isamu entered the tower, he had forgotten to cash in his last mission slip in the elation of receiving an invitation the Kazekage's team and frankly, he needed the cash. Isamu tried to live independently from his parents' wealth but the fact remained that he had grown up accustomed to a certain level of economic security. The Shinobi of the village were well paid when they had missions, but work for a Genin could be inconsistent and often menial. The strongman mission had been unusual for him in that it had involved some level of risk. Isamu hoped potentially joining the Kazekage's team would open up new challenges.

Isamu approached the desk with a a pleasant smile and presented his completed mission form for payment, "Sorry it's a little late, I got sidetracked."

Just too Stronk!

Rank: C-rank

IIC Length: 2 Days

Difficulty: Moderate

Objective: Ya think yer 'ard mate?

Description: Step right up! Step right up! How many people in the crowd think that they can handle the toughest challenge of the Mighty Stronk? I can see six people in the audience right now who I know would pee their pants just thinking about it, and obviously that won't do, as the people want a show! They want someone to be able to defeat the mighty stronk, or at least put up a good fight. The man is not trained in any martial arts, but he is a massive man and he towers over everyone. Weighing in at seven hundred and ninety nine pounds, and almost nine feet tall, he is not easy to knock over, and he certainly won't take it easy on no stinkin' sand ninjas. This show is only on for a limited time, so get in the ring if you think you can handle him. The Showman Steven the Steve Stevenson is a sharply dressed man wearing red and yellow striped clothes calling for anyone who passes through the Obelisk of Tears district, although he's a hard man to catch since ANBU don't like him making a mockery of the monument. Only one shinobi is capable of taking this mission, and there are no weapons allowed in the ring.

Reward: 7,500 Ryo (3,750 Ryo to the village)

[Azamii]

Azamii arrived at the tower with a smile upon her face. Today was a good day, she was going to start getting back into the world of Shinobi instead of just clan politics and Herbology. Although she loved both of them and hoped to one day be the clean's leader not just on it's council, she knew she needed experience in the Shinobi world to do so. Her white and gold outfit was allowing a gentle breeze to flow through keeping her cool while her golden locks were flowing down to her waist full of volume and bounce with some natural curls tucked in. If a person was looking closely they would be able to see the little holes in her skin which hid the vines, both classic and master ritual. For the moment though her vines had no special properties as she hadn't absorbed any herbs in her chest, which for the moment was covered to stop any sand blowing into it.

As Azamii entered into the tower she noted one person at the desk awaiting payment for a mission,deciding doing a mission would be a good idea she went to look at the other available missions for her to take.

[Tetsu]

Isamu&Azamii 

"Hey there Isamu, good to see you again." The more Pleasant of the two clerks that worked the front desk said as she lean over her desk with genuine interest in the Genin. She quickly took the mission slip from the fellows hand and looked it over. "oh yeah, I remember that guy...he was a real jerk." She said looking up while tapping her lip as she remembered the hulk of a man that she passed many times while coming in to work. "I'm glad that you took care of him." She said with a smile as she reached inside the center drawer of her desk to pull out a wooden press stamp and a green ink pad. Placing it on the desk, she quickly pressed it into the ink, and pressed the stamp in the right hand corner under the approved stamp. the stamping simply read COMPLETED  

"The Kazekage will be pleased" The clerk said happily as she took the mission slip and stood up from her sitting position. "Hang on for a moment while I file this and get your payment." She said sweetly as she jogged off up the stairs to go to the treasury to get the fellow's payment and put the mission in the filed section. A few moments later she came back with a wad of Ryo with the amount written on a receipt of mission completion. "Sorry for the wait, here's you payment." She said extending the cash to the fellow, which she figured he would take without problem. "now then, Is there anything else I can...Oh Hello there miss!" The clerk said noticing the woman who had just walked in. "Don't be shy, come on up here, What can I help you with?" She asked sweetly now looking at both the woman and Isamu at the same time. 

"Oh hey, Wait a moment!" She said pulling out a letter request with the Kazekage's seal and Nara clan seal upon the page. "There is a simple "C" Rank mission here issued by the Kazekage that you both might be interested in...especially you Isamu being part of Squad One and all." She said laying the sheet down before them before taking out a pen and another stamp this time with a red ink pad from inside her desk. "What do you say to that you two?" she asked sweetly as she gave them a minute to read and think it over.

[Christoff]

Isamu smiled more broadly as his favorite clerk took the slip from him. He felt like he was making progress with the ornery one but the cheerful exchange brightened his day. As the clerk commented on the strongman Isamu nodded, "It was only a matter of time before someone got seriously hurt fighting that guy." With a wry twist of his smile he added, "Besides they should have come to see you for a permit." As the clerk left to get his payment Isamu cast his eyes around the tower. As always his eyes lingered on the tapestries that adorned the walls. He admired the stitchwork, the village's best artisans had woven the history of the village into them. His favorite depicted the first Kazekage slaying a giant monster of sand. There were other figures surrounding him but Isamu did not know who they were, he made a mental note to read up on the battle. The First featured prominently however with his red armor and eyes.

Isamu broke his gaze away from the tapestry and found he had been joined in the line by a fellow Shinobi. She was pretty and looked to be slightly younger than him. Isamu stuck his hand out in a friendly greeting, "My name is Isamu Shounin." The clerk returned to the table and apologized for the delay Isamu waved her apology off and took the wad of ryo, "Don't worry about it." The clerk addressed the Kunoichi behind him and Isamu smiled as he prepared to leave. Today had been a pretty pleasant winter day. As he turned the clerk called him back and offered a mission, escorting the Kazekage to a meeting. It was not an offer that could truly be refused and Isamu had no real desire to do so anyway. When the clerk finished he immediately answered, "I'm in." He turned slightly towards his new acquaintance resting one hand on the desk as he awaited her answer.

[Azamii]

Almost jumping slightly when the receptionist addressed her, she didn't think they were done with the person before her yet. Oh..ummm.. I would like to take a mission She gave a smile and walked forward standing next to the tall man. Hello Isamu, I'm Azamii Zassou. She politely bowed her head towards him in respect then turned back to the desk a little to be given an envelope about a mission escorting the Lady kazekage herself. She gave a polite nod and took her envelope. Of course, I would love to. Turning to Isamu again she smiled closing her yes sweetly and blushing a little Well it looks like we're team mates for my first ever mission. I will your lead Isamu. Before she was about to turn and walk off a quick thought came to her as she turned back to the desk Where is Lady Kazekage right now?

[Tetsu]

Isamu&Azamii

"Excellent you two," The clerk said taking her stamp to the paper quickly stamping the right hand corner of the paper with the word Approved  in small red letters. She made sure to sign the copy before handing it Isamu. "have fun you two!" She said with a smile as they began to make their way off towards wherever they were going to go. That was before Azamii noticed an oversight. "ah...The Kazekage is at the gates right now...I probably should have mentioned that." The clerk said rubbing the back of her neck with an embarrassed smile as she realized her mistake. She waved to the two as they would surely take their leave for their mission together. It was so great to see young people on teams now a days, working together. Who knows, things might get interesting, The clerk thought as she neatly put away her stamps and prepared for anyone else who might need her help. 

[Christoff]

Isamu's outstretched hand went ignored as the young Kunoichi opted instead for a polite bow of her head. The Sadojin's smile didn't waver as he tactfully withdrew his hand and returned the bow. Azamii seemed startled and unsure of what was happening. Isamu supposed that this was to be expected if this was indeed her first mission. Given a second to ponder it this struck him as even more unusual, she was a little old to be a fresh academy graduate, he made a mental note to ask her about it later.

Isamu took the mission slip and tucked it into a sand pocket in his pants. The Genin turned to fully face Azamii, "Hopefully this will be pretty straightforward so let's get going." Isamu smiled once more and began making his way to the door. He really was in an excellent mood today. As they reached security he began gathering his equipment. His clothes shifted and formed into his mission attire his henge slipping during the transformation to reveal his composition.

He couldn't help but watch for a reaction from the girl. The ANBU security were always impassive and had seen this before. It was a bit showy but he planned on sharing his abilities with her before the mission began anyways. It wouldn't do to have his new teammate freaking out if he took a hit so the Genin offered an explanation, "I am a Sadojin. We are made entirely of sand except for a stone heart. As long as my heart isn't hit, and there is sand around me, I can regenerate almost instantly from anything." Isamu took a slightly more serious tone, "I'm telling you this because if we're going to work together it's important for us to know each other's capabilities." He supposed that was an awkward explanation, almost a little forced, but he squashed his anxiety about it and strapped on his katana wondering what her response would be, and curious about what she was capable of.

[Potential exit with Azamii]

[Azamii]

She noticed he withdrew his hand and blushed a little I'm sorry, I didn't noticed the hand, my mind is a bit taken back. With the mission approved and her partner ready to go she would smile and turn to walk along side him to the door. When his clothes shifted though both shock and awe was upon her face, what this man could do was incredible let alone when he began to explain about his abilities. He is just a stone surrounded by changing and shifting sands. She was truly fascinated by this. That is amazing Isamu... if you want to see mine I can show you when we get outside. She gave a chuckle and skipped ahead a little till she was outside the door 

Once outside she would turn and look upon the Saodjin, As I said, I am Azamii Zassou, of the Zassou Clan. I am one of it's council members within Sand and have mastered most of the techniques. Once I master them all I'm hoping to run for Clan Leader but I wanted more experience with the shinobi world before I ran.... stand back. Smiling with a little giggle she would begin to pull down her top just until the hole in her chest was revealed. This is my 'Herb Hole' I can take herbs and place it in there, then my vines absorb it's abilities and can then carry their toxins and abilities. After explaining she pulled her top back up  and stepped back about ten meters.   From her back six vines would appear and life her form the floor. 

I have about forty vines at my disposal each implanted throughout my body in different locations and so far I can use them up to one hundred and twenty meters, though with training they can reach up to two hundred meters away. The vines have a variety of abilities and can do everything from help me walk to shoot thorns, grow spikes and protect me. She lowered herself back down to the ground and the vines retracted back into her body. They are my primary defence and offence though I have the potential to use Sand but I haven't developed the techniques within it yet. 

It suddenly dawned on her that she had stopped them in their tracks and the dawning would appear on her face. Oops, we should really get going Isamu, let's get to the gates.  For someone who turns eighteen in a couple of weeks she was acting just a little bit childish but that was just the excitement of finally starting her career as a shinobi. One step closer to being the Clan Leader.

Incoming Message Enter Messenger Animal// Rather than entering the embassy as this bird had done earlier on, this time it entered the Kazekage Tower and fluttered straight toward the main desk. The vest the bird wore held the insignia belonging to Kusagakure, and the canister which was attached to the bird’s back had a bright red lid upon its top signifying its importance. Inside the canister was a small note or few words; the note itself would read: SPOILER: Click to show Kazekage Thank you for your polite message and welcome. Please send two escorts only to my country’s boarder and we will meet you there in two days. Regards, Anais Futakongo Kusakage Once the note was removed from the bird, said bird would take flight and leave the tower. //Exit Messenger Animal.

[Minamoto Kaguya]

[Enter]

Walking into the Kazekage's tower put Minamoto in a good mood. Partly because it was a long walk from his apartment and he was glad to get out of the sun but mainly because it had been so long since he had been there last and it reminded him how much he loved his job. Having taken so much time off, the young shinobi was obviously broke which was his main reason for showing up, but he was also trying to broaden his social circle since it had been pointed out to him that he had a sum total of about 3 friends. Both these problems could be solved by the mission application he held in his hand that read:

The specific bar will be given when the ninja is deployed, and may only be taken by one shinobi at a time.

Minamoto joyfully approached the front desk and spoke a pleasant: "How are you today?" as he placed his application on the desk with a smile.

Miyagi had been in the city less than a day before making his first visit to the Kazekage's tower. Though partly out of nostalgia, his main reason for coming was that he'd just been turned down for his old job at the restaurant and was in need of cash.

He stepped-up to the bulletin board, which was now about eye-level for him, and glanced over the offers. Lost pets, missing persons, even what looked like an old posting for a rickshaw driver...

Eventually his eyes settled on the job postings neatly pinned at the other end of the board. One in particular read "Help Wanted: Barista" he briefly read over the description, took the sheet down, and made his way over to the receptionist.

//Sunagakure no Sato Clerk Ao Kimiwara\\

Ao was absorbed in her book on desert plants when she heard the approaching footsteps of someone who had obviously come to visit her at the front desk. Slowly taking one of the flat Suna book marks and placing it into the page of the book before putting it flat on the desk before her, she quickly flashed a smile as she took pride and joy in her work. She readjusted her glasses as she rolled herself to face front and center as the fellow asked how she herself was doing. "I'm doing wonderfully, It's been a beautiful summer." She said wishfully as she looked up at the fellow who towered over her by at least 5 inches in high, not to mention that she was sitting down. "wow...you're really tall aren't you?" She said with a chuckle as she looked the fellow over for a moment, she quickly noticed the mission application that he had placed on her desk. "Ah, so this isn't a personal visit is it...no one ever visits to see me, just missions, missions, and more missions." She said with a sigh as she looked over the application with a swift glance. It was a simplistic mission; which made approving it no problem at all. Slowly reaching under her desk into her center drawer, she gently took out a green ink pad and stamp with her delicate feminine fingers. Gently dabbing the stamp in the pad, she swiftly smacked the stamp onto the corner of the mission where it read.

//Posted by Minamoto Kaguya\\
//File Stamp {APPROVED}\\

"There you go, all approved!" she said throwing a thumbs up at the fellow happily. "Come see me again when you complete it and I'll give you a little something something." She said in a teasing tone as she waved the fellow off so he could go do his mission. "by that I mean your money." She said with a final chuckle as she noticed another person approaching her desk. "ah so we are just busting at the seams with missions today aren't we?" She said with a smile as the fellow approached. "yahallo, what can I do for you today there mister?" She asked looking back at the really tall Kaguya fellow, waving him on with her left hand as she waved the other fellow over with her right. "Ah I bet you would like me to approve that mission there wouldn't you?" She said playfully as she snatched the mission slips out from under her desk, picking out the one the fellow had muttered only a moment ago. Quickly taking her stamp and placing it on the paper like she had before, the sheet now read. 

//Posted by Miyagi\\
//File Stamp {APPROVED}\\

"there you go, all good now!" She said handing him the slip to take with him. "Now go off and bring that back to me with the signature of the client after you've worked your shift and I'll give you the well earned money." She said kindly now waving the fellows off in turn. "I might even stop by," she said with a wink as she left the fellows to their own devices, letting her get back to some of the work she still had to do on her desk. 

[Minamoto Kaguya]

When hearing the clerk say, that everyone always came to see her just to get missions approved, Minamoto immediately felt the blood rush to his cheeks, he felt terrible. He was about to apologize when his old friend Miyagi walked up from behind him. In that moment, the Genin realized 3 things. 1, the clerk was quite busy and didn't actually have time for a visit, therefore 2, she must have been joking about expecting a personal visit (whether this was true or not, he could not tell, but he chose to interpret it that way), and 3 Miyagi was back in town!! Minamoto gave his short quirky friend a tap on the shoulder and a smile that said, meet me outside and we'll chat and made his way to the exit, Hanegawa had been waiting for him.

[exit]

(OOC: Thanks for approving this so quickly )

[Mr.Tambourine Man]

Miyagi was quite surprised to find that the first person he should run here into would be his old teammate and he couldn't help but notice that Minamoto's height was more imposing than ever. It wasn't only his height though, the young man looked more somber and distant than ever.

It was with some surprise then that he noticed the big guy blushing as he turned around. Everyone has a weak spot he thought silently. Upon noticing him, Minamoto gave a smile which looked quite genuine. Miyagi had a brief warm feeling, but chose to respond in a sly smirk, with just enough attitude to leave him hanging a little. But the rough tap on the shoulder seemed to suggest he hadn't noticed much.

As the clerk addressed him, Miyagi looked over the counter and sized her up, he then gave his purpose, keeping his words to a minimum. As soon as he was handed the stamped mission sheet, he turned, gave a somewhat sheepish smile and walked away.

[/exit]

[Minamoto Kaguya]

[Enter]

Minamoto entered the tower confidently. His goal this time was not that of submitting a mission request, he was getting to leave the country that he had called home for years and wanted the Kazekage's approval to do so. Although, push come to shove, seeing as how his health was on the decline, the boy was not about to take "no" for an answer. The young Kaguya walked up to the front desk and with a much less joyful expression than the last time and said in a serious voice: "How soon can I speak with the Kazekage?"

[Tetsu]

//Sunagakure no Sato Clerk Ao Kimiwara\\

As she quickly put the folders away, she noticed that the fellow whom had requested a mission approached her desk once again. "oh hey there...oh wait, are you okay?" She asked suddenly noticing the sicking expression on the fellow's face. He was obviously concerned about something, but all in all she wasn't quite positive as to what the problem was seeing as she was only a desk clerk after all. He quickly requested for an audience with the Kazekage; however Ao shook her head in response. There were two issues with this request that she just couldn't grant. First and foremost the Kazekage had been out on recent business to visit the Kusakage, and even more so he would have to have scheduled an appointment at least a week in advance. The Kazekage was a busy woman after all. "I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I can't help you there my friend." She said somberly as she quickly looked through her desk for some paperwork.


[enter]

"This has been a crazy week..." The Kazekage, Amira Nara, muttered to herself as she had finally finished up her business outside the village as well as had missed the Kusakage as it had seemed. Taking her time to walk past the statues of Kages past, and making her way to the second floor where her office resided, she prepared herself for the godawful paperwork load that surely awaited her. "This stinks..." She muttered in a hushed tone as she made her way to the front desk to let Ao know that she had returned. As she came over the cusp of the stairs, she noticed a fellow that had yet to visit her, someone whom's record she remembered fairly well seeing as she had access to most of their shinobi career records. 


"How soon can I speak with the Kazekage?" 

She heard the fellow request as she approached the desk, making sure to stay behind him outside of his view for the time being. He was tall, and resembled a Kaguya if she had to guess there on the spot. He was definitely in need of something important; which in all honesty would be more enjoyable to deal with than simple remedial tasks like paperwork. As Ao made her statement to the fellow, she quickly peaked around his shoulders preparing to speak up. "It's okay Ao-Chan, I'll see him in my office." She said with a smile as the clerk began to act frantic in response, not sure how to handle the unorthodox methods of the sixteen year old kage. Amira sighed at this factor, "You're such a spaz you know that..." She muttered in annoyance as she expected the Kaguya fellow to turn around to look at her. 


If he chose to turn around, he would notice a few things about the young Kage that might appear quite odd in nature. She was donned in a sandy tan sweater, and a brown overcoat (Type 5 Cloak), That held 10 Ice tags, 80 exploding tags, 80 fake exploding tags, and 10 lightning tags in it's folds. She also housed 45 bo shuriken within her coat; which was quite convenient for access if she needed them. She housed a quadruple knife holster on her right leg; which housed 4 Kunai knives as well. her grey pants, and brown laced boots gave her a very warm appearance all in all as she seemed more dressed for a winter or autumn day opposed to the brutal heat of the summer sun. This would have proven an issue for most; however she was actually lowering the temperature around her body to make the room a nice 13 Degrees Celsius. She wore a warm smile, just as warm as her clothing as she quickly waved the fellow on as she turned towards her office. "Come one you, I'll talk to you right now, how does that sound?" She asked, remembering that she had yet to introduce herself. "Oh, and by the way, I'm Amira Nara Kazekage of Sunagakure, It's a pleasure to meet you." She said, turning to flash him a smile before making her way into her office. 

//Access to Kazekage Office\\
//Granted\\

[Minamoto Kaguya]

Sensing someone behind him, Minamoto assumed that it was just the next person in line getting antsy but when he heard Amira's confident voice, he quickly understood he was in the presence of the Kazekage. Not knowing whether to kneel or act natural, the Genin followed the receptionist's lead and didn't react. He looked over his shoulder and saw a young woman so he checked his other shoulder looking for the Kage only to see that the room was empty...

Minamoto was surprised to say the least. First and foremost, he had heard that the Kage was young but this girl seemed to be around his age, which he had no problem with but it shattered all his preconceptions of what a Kazekage would look like. The Kaguya boy then reminded himself that all this was trivial and to stick to his reason for being here. He silently entered the office, closed the door behind him and said: "The truth is that I'm falling very ill with my clan's sickness... And I don't mean to waste you're time but... Well time is what I'm working against. I have heard of a technique that if learned properly could cure me. And I'm planning to go to whatever lengths I must to find someone who can teach it to me, I believe that those lengths will take me out of this city and I'm here to request your approval". Speaking those words (which Minamoto had written, re-written, memorized and practiced) took a weight off the boy's chest but the fear of her response filled that gap in an instant.

[Tetsu]

//Office of the Kazekage Amira Nara\\

Amira took a seat at her desk as she listened to the fellow's little canned speech. It was obvious that he was of the Kaguya now that he mentioned the sickness that now afflicted him. Taking a moment to lace her fingers in front of her face as she contemplated what she was going to say in response. This was indeed a tragic event, and handling such a delicate issue could not be postponed. "Hmmm, Calcium Deposition eh...I understand the urgency of your request; however I have to stop and think as to how you plan to go out into the open world alone to find a doctor who can treat you." She said calmly thinking about how she could assist the fellow in any way she could. It was her purpose after all, to protect the people of the village to the best of her ability. 

Taking a quick inhale before sighing, she let her soft gaze fall upon the eyes of the much taller gentleman. "Your safety is important to me, so that's why I'm not going to give you permission to just upright leave the village..." She said leaving the statement open as she lowered her hands down onto the desk calmly contemplating her next words with ease. "That is, without a mission to do so of course...Which I have right here." She said quickly scribbling down on a piece of paper before taking as stamp from her desk and personally approving the slip, extending it forward to the fellow opposite her. 

Mission slip reads

Name: Doctors and Diplomacy
Rank: “C” Rank
IIC Length: 2 Day IIC
Difficulty: Low-Moderate
Objective: It is your mission to accompany the Kazekage on a diplomatic mission to Kusa no Kuni just to the north east of Kaze no Kuni to visit the Kusakage. While doing so, find a doctor or information on one who can cure Calcium Depostion.
Description: There has been much talk of visiting Kusagakure no sato since the beginning of the cease fire with the leaf village in hopes of forming an alliance of mediation to match up to the leaf's strength. It is crucial that the Kazekage arrive there safely, which is why a shinobi will be accompanying her to Kusa no Kuni. It is additionally vitally important that the fellow discover a treatment for his disease, in which case is the hidden purpose of the mission itself.

Slowly pulling out three more four more slips of paper, she quickly began to scribble something down on them before whistling four times after writing the letters and sealing them gently in envelopes with the Nara Clan Wax seal on the front. Four cats quickly scurried into the office, and jumped up onto her desk, each with an individual messenger tube. Taking the scrolls and placing each one in the appropriate pouches, she quietly whispered to each one in turn. "Amegakure, Kusagakure, Konohagakure, Yukigakure." She commanded each cat with the corresponding letter. As the creatures purred, quickly brushed against her leg in turn, she allowed them to scurry off before continuing her conversation with the fellow. "as I was saying, your safety is important to me, so I'll be going with you okay?" she asked, wondering if her compromise was going to make him uncomfortable. There was no helping that with the escape of Hitomi, it would be hard to let him go out alone by himself as it was. The chances of things getting messy were quite possible. With that in mind, she quickly stood up from her desk and approached the fellow. "so how about you and I go get our gear together, go get something to eat and head out?" She asked kindly as she put her hands behind her back and began to make her way towards the front of her desk. "Let's go get you a doctor." She finished with a smile as she closed her eyes for a moment before opening them again to find that she was ready for a trip once again.
