Shaking off her still soggy uniform, the young Kazekage began to approach the villages familiar divide. Sighing as the guard stopped her at the Gate. She quickly began to show him her ID card "it's me guys..." She said taking her equipment out before the guards. She exposed the 9 kunai, the 77 explosive tags, and 45 shuriken. She sighed as the guard simply handed her the ID and nodded in approval. "You may proceed Kazekage-Sama" he said simply retaking his post. Nodding in agreement, Amira continued down the dark divide. Finally walking out into the bright sandstone village, She took a deep breath of home. She would now return to the tower to continue her duties as a Kage should....which probably consisted of paperwork.
the great divide that split the walls of Sunagakure were peaceful. The utter darkness that sat before her as she awaited her squad's arrival. "Thirty minutes..." She said leaning up against the wall with a sigh. They were always late she thought as she yawned under the midday sun. The warmth against her face lulled her as she silently waited for the pair of white haired Shinobi to show up. Without anything of importance, she began to slowly fall into a light sleep as she awaited their arrival. The 9 Kunai knives that sat within her front and back slots felt comfortable as she relaxed against the wall. The 45 bo shuriken occupied her front best pockets. The 77 explosive tags and the world map she had taken were stashed away in her vest's breast scroll pockets. The bundle of wire was gently hanging at her hip as she napped in silence. Hopefully those fools would her here soon.
Kusanagi ran towards the Sungakure gates where he was to meet with his teammates. The shop had longer than he thought. He only hoped they were patient enough to wait for him. He scanned the area, and he spotted his team captain leaning against a wall. "Sorry I'm late," he said approaching his leader. "The shop took longer than I thought it would." He readjusted the 60 slot clay pouch on his hip. It was bigger than the one he was used to. He hoped that it would be enough for the mission. As he was readjusting his clay pouch he realised that the other member was not around. 'Ah, that dude is always late.' he thought. He leaned on the wall just next to his captain waiting for their final member to arrive.
Ramses walked to the village gates, once again late but that didn't matter to him too much. He walked in with his large gourd filled with sand. He had his tactical cloak over him which held all 285 Senbons nicely in place and his 2 kunais. The senbons were his go to weapon and his more discrete way of getting away with things. The kunais were just situational after all. He would join his team and await command.
As Kusanagi apologized for his tardiness, Amira slowly peaked open her eyes. "No need to apologize, it's not like the mission is going anywhere." She said yawning and stretching her arms as the the young fellow leaned against the wall next to her. "And...there's Ramses." She said with a sigh. He always seemed to be tardy. Rolling her neck, Amira slowly pushed herself up from the wall. "Looks like we are ready to go." She said waving for Ramses to hurry along. "So, let's be off." Amira said turning to walk down the dark cavern like divide that opened to walls to the open world. She really hoped that these two were able to keep up. She walked at a slow pace allowing her companions to follow her as she began to head out into the land of wind.
The darkness of the divide began to engulf her as she walked steadily towards the end of the end. She wasn't afraid of such trivial things as the dark. She took in a deep breath of the village's air. It would be the last Whiff she would enjoy for a while. As she continued forward with her companion's she suddenly felt the eyes of the ANBU bear's upon her. Flashing her ID, she and her squad easily stepped out into bright Kaze no Kuni sun. "Welp, looks like it's your first time on an A ranked mission..." She said looking back at her companions. "Best keep up." She said quickly turning to leave the gates ad officially entering the land of Wind.
OCC: okay guys I'll throw up the travel thread her soon.
Ramses arrived just a second after later after Kusa. At the command of his leader Kusa turned and walked behind his leader. The exit out of the village was so dark. Kusa could barely see what he was walking on. He followed the footsteps of his leader all the way towards the other end. He didn't see the reason why the had to make the entrance dark. He wanted to ask, but decided he would leave the question for when they are back from the mission. He took deep breaths walking in the dark hoping that something doesn't jump on him. The captain flashed her ID towards the AnBu who was eying them. Kusa didn't see any need to flash his. As soon as they stepped into the light Kusa sighed in relief. The captain said something about this mission being their first A ranked. Kusa nodded as he followed that captain into the land of wind. He looked back at his village and said a silent good bye.

This sun was a pain... How could people even live like this? They would have to cloak themselves every single day just to avoid being burned, that was not a life Amarante wanted to live. Having made her way away from the river where she met with the Kazekage she moved deeper into the Land of Wind, guided to the Sand Village gates by the map she carried with her, she knew the way to the Sand Village gates as Amira had been kind enough to mark it on her map. Now she had the locations to four different villages though she was set to make her way to the Stone Village in due time as well. Her trip to the gates for the moment however were of a different nature. She had to make it here so her techniques could link to this location making communication much easier. She was going to use this trick for communicating with the Snow Village in the future as well.
For now though she had to endure this over bearing heat and make her way to the Gates of Sunagakure. Wearing a black crop top that barely contained her bossoms, her stomach and shoulders would have been completely exposed, which would actually show off her quite defined abdominal muscles, though she wore a hooded cloak which covered her from head to toe. Her pants were a pair of matching black short shorts so short they almost looked like underwear, held to her waist needlessly by a brown belt with no buckle. Her legs themselves however were covered almost completely however as her boots were long enough to cover the appendages up above the knee and partway up her thigh, golden in colour they were quite stylish though they were unable to save the skanky attire from being skanky. Among the items she took she had with her were the Kyuushi blade which she wore on her left hip, a wakizashi blade she wore on her right hip, and her gourd of water that she carried on her back. Wearing a buttbag she also carried a kunai, three shuriken, a slot of flash pouches, her world map was also stored here, and a grenade was also in her possession.

Now this was something of an eye sore. The gates that Amarante had found were not those of a standard village but those of a great hole in a wall. The village it seemed was completely surrounded by this thick wall creating some questions. Was this a natural formation? Was this a wall created by shinobi to protect the village? She didn't really know though she approached this wall in an attempt to learn more. As she was at a distance at this point Amarante was really dumbfounded when she actually got close to this hole in the wall, it was giant! This 'wall' was more a mountain range. She would be surprised to all ends if this was created by a shinobi. She could only think of possibly two individuals capable of creating this wall though it would take time and would exhaust them completely. These two people were both Tarah and Gosei, she herself had energy reserves comparable to these two though as well as the ability to manipulate stone, those two were much stronger than she was... For now. Even the little Kazekage wouldn't be able to match anywhere near these two, this was far beyond her little hands.
As she was about to turn away, having reached far enough for the general purposes of this particular visit, she was stopped by a man. "Hey, who are you and what are you doing here?!" he boomed. Turning to face him Amarante could sense that this man possessed great strength, not enough to craft the walls of this village but strength. He probably could sense her ability as well, she was not restraining her power at the moment so all had the possibilty of sensing her. "I simply came to gaze upon the gate" an honest answer to her actions though she gave no name. The gate itself was quite terrifying. It openly displayed the names of those killed before it. A large list, it bore the names of enemies and traitors alike and announced that it would kill anyone who dared come across it uninvited. The man seemed to not like that answer however and he boomed some more, thank god Amarante had ducked her headband in her buttbag. "You're coming with me!" he announced though Amarante found it to be quite interesting that he had his eyes clothes, not that he was apprehending her. Could he not see? She didn't know though she didn't really care. "Amira would not like you collecting me at the moment, it would strain our alliance. At any rate chow!" within an instant she protruded her wings and took the sky faster than he could react. "I've no quaral with my allies the Sand Village. You've no reason to chase me." she called behind herself as she flew away toward her new destination. The Land of Stone.
The Kugutsutsukai would approach the Divide of Sunagakure no Sato with a black pack secured to his back. His puppet, Vasuki, was in tow as well and was controlled by a thin fiber connected to Surya's fingers. When he willed, the snake puppet twisted through the hot granule of the desert as he pressed through to the gate where the Sand ANBU lay. The blind Gate Captain Stagger would approach the low-ninja and ask him of his goings.
"I am Surya, heading to the Chunin Exams hosted in the Land of Grass.." He adjusted the straps on his backpack and fiddled with his butt bag, "I'm an aspiring puppeteer of Sunagakure." More men with animal faces would drop down around the Genin at the command of the Shitakuma Gate Captain. Surya jerked and for a moment thought that he was to be overtaken by these guards; however, they simply bowed at him slightly before vanishing to open the Divide further. The boy, holding a pair of substance locating goggles and numerous kunai in his tool pouch, moved into the countryside and looked back at the village.
I may die before I even make it to the Exams! It's been a while since I've left the village...
On the way, though, he would first seek out a shop for a compass and map. The Vivre Card given to him by the village receptionist would be placed near the auto-injector gun that he also happened to carry along in his butt bag.

‘Suke immediately grew dissatisfied instantly by the appearance of the gates, in fact he vomited at the look of the gates as they were the cruelest he had ever seen in his life. His meal, the water, everything in his stomach was upchucked on the scene of this gateway as his body was hunched over gagging at the sight. His constitution was never the best at this kind of scenery of cruelty, surely he was a doctor but not a torturer of this kind, even given the lineage of which he was from. The land of rain known so well for militaristic states, but this was different than anything he has known about.
Twelve pikes with heads attached were amongst this cruelty, in fact he could swear a crow was atop one of the skeletal heads as well. “Such cruelty, I cannot believe any leader of a village could display it so openly,” his thoughts spoken aloud as he looked to Yoshi, “If I ever turn out like the kage that did this, murder that part of me. I cannot agree with it, no matter the reason.” ‘Suke could now only shake his head before rising once more, wiping his mouth and spitting into the sand as to bring some peace back to himself.
His eyes dead to the village gateway’s crevice as he moved with such ease to the checkpoint that laid amongst this place. He moved with his black shihakushō and hakama with white haori over his body. His Amekage hat atop his head as he walked amongst this checkpoint. He carried with him his gear of course amongst this clothing as such, the Satetsu Kiba among his robes and his Kyuushi at his hip. In the haori were simple things, such as forty one senbon, ten smoke grenades, hundred sixty exploding tags, and eighty locking tags.
While the shihakushō held his prismatic compass, a known world map, a small summoning scroll with medical equipment sealed to it, and a sniper mono-goggle bolstering anti-flash lenses, condition viewing vision, thermal vision, and x-ray vision. Hidden beneath this was a full kunai harness with ten kunai. ‘Suke walked to the guards, assumedly the AnBu of this village and spoke calmly, “I am the Amekage and am here with to speak of peaceful negotiations with the Kazekage.” He also added a listing of all his equipment on his person to the individuals, wishing to not hide anything.

There was another following in the wakes of the Amekage. One who was wearing a long black cloak, covering all of her features. Over her face, she was wearing a porcelain mask with colorful blue markings scattered across the surface of it. Over the young females back, was a large container filled to the brim with desert sand. In the belt, there were a series of weapons loosely attached, Katanas, claws and the like. In the different pouches that were hidden underneath her cloak, she was carrying several different things. Grenades of multiple kinds, exploding tags, herbs and other medical remedies. "..Come now, I know its a grim display, but surely you've seen worse while you were at war. Ryosuke-sama. We still know too little of Suna to really judge their customs." The girl spoke calmly, in a tone of voice that was quite unlike her, as she stepped forwards towards the gates themselves. The display wasn't something that immediately bothered her. There could be a multitude of explanations as to why they were presented there in the manner that they were. As the Sunagakure personel showed up to greet and investigate, Yoshi merely took a step behind Ryosuke in a passive manner.
"I am envoy of Amekage Ryosuke, here to protect him and ensure his general safety plus well being. We're here to see the Kazekage in a diplomatic meeting." The girl added softly, staying alert and ready. The sand underneath her was shifting, ready to protect them at any moment if it became required. Although they were there on a diplomatic term, it wasn't guaranteed that they'd be recieved with the same intentions. For now she stayed close to Ryosuke, hoping for the best but preparing for the worst.

As Amira and her squad approached the gates, she quickly recognized a pair of shinobi that were standing just before the gate. One of the ANBU guards in that instant jumped down from the tiered cliff side and slid all the way down to where the pair was standing. One of the pairs was dressed in what appeared to be dressed in black, however one appeared very similar to an ANBU operative. This oddly placed pair were surely something that a Kage could handle just as effectively as a guard.
As the guard reached the ground level, he swiftly extended his hand. "We are sure that you are telling the truth as to who you both are and why you are here, I just need some form of ID" the Bear masked ANBU member asked as Amira continued to approach. As Amira got close enough, she mentally ran through her gear that she had been returning with. She was wearing a tan Sunagakure tactical vest that housed four kunai, 45 shurken, 77 explosive tags, a picture of her squad and the world map that belonged to the village that had to be returned to the tower as soon as possible. Her new type one butt bag held 13 slots of kunai knives and a pair of binoculars that had been acquired during their last mission. Her thigh high skirt exposed the long leg wrappings that ran down the expanse of her thigh and most of her knee. With her dark hair tied back in a rugged ponytail and her arm band fastened tightly to her left arm, the world would know she was a shinobi of Sunagakure, and not just a shinobi but the Kazekage.
She swiftly approached the pair and in a flash pulled out her ninja ID. "Amira Nara, Kazekage of Sunagakure." She droned at the dull formality that should be unneeded for the village that would on spit recognize her. She looked back to make sure Kusanagi was following before turning to the strangers. "Welcome my humble little village." The young 13 year old Kage said to welcome the pair. She looked to her left and noticed a puddle of vomit and the obvious distaste of the fellow who was wearing a hat marking him as the Amekage. "Is everything alright?" She asked the Amekage as he and his masked companion now opposed her. She was pleased that he had come to visit at such an opportune time.
Upon arriving at the gates of his village, he noticed two unknown beings standing before his village gates. Judging by the outfit they were wearing, he could tell they were ninjas. Remembering how they were attacked on their mission made Kusanagi feel a little uncomfortable around the pair before him. To him there was a possibility that they were sent here to finish what the dead assassin had failed to finish. He moved his left hand around his left thigh, letting his palm rest atop of his clay pouch. The reason for placing his palm on top of his pouch was to enable his to easily access his clay if he desired.
The grey haired genin walked silently a few inches aside Amira. Following his leader, he pulled his ninja card with his right hand and showed it to the guard. "Kusanagi Sankuchi, shinobi of the sand." he said quietly. His Sunagakure forehead protector was visible his forehead providing evidence for his statement. He stood besides his leader observing the unknown pair while waiting for the guard to let them in.

‘Suke gazed at the approach of the bear masked shinobi whom welcomed them with need to see identification. He immediately started to think of the different ways one could actually get by said means with other espionage such as this. He went into the sleeve of his haori and held out his identification card, thankfully since becoming the Amekage there was a recent picture of him on their to account for his aging process as the old picture that was there before was since he was eight, looking eight at the time, but now he appeared easily in the mid-twenties while only nineteen as the ID stated.
“There’s my identification as the Hachidaime Amekage. My bodyguard there, bearing the mask I would prefer to remain nameless but I can give you my word as the Amekage that she is no threat to you unless either of us are provoked. I can only assume neither of us will be though,” He stated the last part flatly, yes it was amongst a tone that was still in some disgust for the visage of the horrific display of the pike and heads before. Nonetheless, he did not wish for anyone of the sand shinobi to attack his love, frankly for the sake that the bounty had yet to be removed and that was a mission in and of itself.
‘Suke continued though, turning from the AnBu and facing the Kazekage whom approached and he can tell from her that she was young, younger than most he was aware of that had taken hold of the village. It was remarkable to say the least but he only gathered the natural amount of knowledge from looking at her with the steadiness the land posed for them. He opened the haori again to put the identification card in and then pulled his sniper mono-goggle out and put it to his face, where he activated it to see for metallic weaponry given the X-ray vision but also at the second sand shinobi.
It was to see what he was doing with the pouch his hand was in but ultimately all he saw was a substance being mangled within the bones of the hand. Nothing really big to see there. So he switched its views to a more so better medical view being the condition where he could see if either of them were fouled by something but they were not. This process not taking longer than a second to perform as he made a bow with his head to the Kazekage and spoke, “I had a rather unpleasant reaction to the display your village has at the way point entry.”

Standing calmly by Ryosuke's side, the girl had fallen completely silent. Now that they were there, her sole duty was to protect the Amekage, until they had a chance to go inside where they could talk in private. Once there, there were things that the girl wanted to discuss with the Kazekage for herself. For now, the role of her was to be a silent, nameless protector. When Ryosuke gestured towardsdd her and made the notion that she was actually non-threathening, she merely bowed before the tiny Kazekage, who to her, seemed to be incredibly young. After this small introduction, Yoshi gestured forwards into the city, trying to indicate that this wasn't the place where they should be talking. All the discussion should be done in private, where she also wouldn't need to conceal her identity.

"Well you have my apologies, we have been meaning to remove the desecrated from the walls...the old Kage was not as peaceful as I'm trying to be." Amira said with a face of legitimate concern. "All the same shall we proceed to my office? Or perhaps you might want to sit down and eat first." Amira said looking from the puddle of bile then back to Ryosuke and the masked figure. "Anyway, my name is Amira Nara, Kazekage of Sunagakure." She said extending her hand or towards Ryosuke. "It's a pleasure to meet you." She said preparing to turn towards the gate. "Shall we?" She asked motioning towards the gate as she willingly allowed the pair into the village.
The Bear ANBU member nodded in respect to the Kazekage. "They are approved Kazekage-Sama" the operative said as he suddenly returned to his guard post up upon the cliffs above the gates. "Good," Amira said to herself as she turned towards the village. She wave her hand hoping that her newly met Kage would follow her into her home. This was a monumental moment. Possibly the first time an Amekage had visited the village for a long while. The possibilities of friendship and alliances lightened her mood as the shadows of the gate engulfed her.
With nothing to do out side the gates of his village, he wanted nothing more than to enter and make his way home. But he couldn't, the darkness inside produced by the stone walls made him uncomfortable. He silently waited for Amira to enter, then followed. He moved through the dark entrance with a smile on his face knowing that his first B ranked mission had been a success.

Yoshi remained silent for now, at least that’d let this not be too difficult for her to play the role of a silent protector. This was making for a better advantage as well yet he soon found the apologies of the Kazekage to be forthright. It was interesting to say the least and proved to be ever better as well in the given circumstances. The current Kazekage appeared remorseful for the actions of the previous, given the age increment he could reason as to why but wasn’t going to judge completely off of that quite yet, no it wasn’t going to be an age thing to judge quite yet.
Politics however as a delicate issue and so ‘Suke merely proceeded to shake the hand of the Kazekage, offering up his own words to her, “Food will not be required, not for a while anyways. Nonetheless, the pleasure is mine. You may call me Ryosuke.” Now he moved with the Kazekage, not without his love however and thankfully the two of them were approved and it was high time for the show to start. Show being merely the antics of which politics were to grow amongst. He followed the kage to her village, it was to be an interested time indeed.

With the two Kage moving inside the village, Yoshi was s tanding there behind them for a moment. To her, this was marking the beginning of something new. While most others would've likely been intimidated or humbled in such pressences, she was feeling strangely calm. Everything thus far was pointing towards a peaceful meeting with negotiations and mutual desire for peace and prosperity. In addition, she knew that she herself was there to fullfill a duty, and that in many ways, the Amekage was relying on her as much as the village was relying on him. In some sense, she felt that she was involved enough to not be out of place. After the small moment ot assess the situation, she looked around to the guards, smiling at the thought that this was exactly like the Amegakure gates, before she hurried inside after her Kage, not leaving him out of sight for too long at a time.
