Amegakure Embassy

[Saiyuki]

Sai ignored how they got dressed but when they were not looking at him, he walked over to the window. He judged the situation and decided not to look for a way for him to obtain matter that would contain their bio signature. If he had hunt one or the other down sometime in the future, there would be other ways. For now, he decided not to given what had happened last night. When Yoshi was finally ready, he led the way downstairs. When he was sure Rena was out of earshot distance, he muttered something to Yoshi.

"I know what your curse is. If there is a chance, I will guide you to better harness it. For now, do not let anyone else know of it."

Then he moved onto checking out the two rooms, letting her wonder how he knew. In due time, she could become a powerful asset to the village. But that was if and only if she would remain loyal to the Village. First he had to make sure she could actually become a shinobi of the Hidden Rain. She had told her friend/lover that she would be fine, but Sai was so not sure. With how split the Village was at the moment, there would no doubt be nationalists who would call her a traitor to her country. The Chuunin detested politics. Yet he knew he would crush all of those in power with but a few plans and connections. But he judged it a wasteful effort. There was no Souzen this time, no one who he had judged worthy of ruling. And with his legacy, the current Amekage, missing, he had little to no hope for the future.

Motioning to Yoshi to leave, he would leave the premises with dark thoughts of what laid ahead.

[Rena]

A small frown pulled at the corners of Rena’s lips as the explanation left more questions than answers, but she didn’t press to know more and instead just chuckled as her ass was slapped as she shook her curiosity off. “Just be careful- If anyone’s gonna keep you chained and caged, it should be me,” she playfully claimed, snickering as she pulled her coat and then quiver on and strapped her crossbow to her back. “Catch ya later,” was her final farewell before the rainbow haired woman left as well, silently wondering if she ever would actually run into her precious Neenee again.

[Yoshi [Lynx!]]

WORD COUNT: 214

TAGGED: Usiel

TAGGED: LYNX

The girl didn't reply to what was being said. The both of them knew that she wouldn't have much choice in the matter if politics decided that she was going to be chained and jailored. Truth of the matter was, that the Amekage that had requested her pressence appeared to be missing. With that being the case, who knew what was going on insde Amegakures walls? The girl could only pray that the next Amekage was going to keep the promise of not hurting her. Afterall, she had shown more tolerance towards their odd rules and judgements than could be asked of her, after Yukigakure's betrayal.


Slowly stepping forwards, the girl looked solemnly after Rena as she disappeared from the embassy. It'd be a while before the two would see each other again, but she'd look forward to the day. It had been a long time since she had felt such a strong connection to another human being. It felt nice...


//Exit

[Harukiyo 強, 癒]

Marika is non ninja and so, she needed permission from the embassy to ente Amegakure. He leads the girl to the place.

//Enter//

Upon entering, the smell of freshly brewed beer would blow up their noses, he resumes on asking Heero, the barkeep, how to proceed on getting Marika a permission to enter Amegakure. ''She's my friend, and I wanted her to check out my place y'know? Who can we talk to, man?''

[Marika]

{Enter}

Marika followed the young shinobi to what looked like a cozy tavern. She would have not guessed this was an embassy at all if going here alone. Nothing as impressive as Mo or other establishments the idol has been to, she entered. The usual tavern stenched welcomed her nose, there were lots of noises about. Haru was leading the way towards the bartender, an old man by her standards. ''She's my friend, and I wanted her to check out my place y'know? Who can we talk to, man?'' Haru informed him, obviously not knowing the procedure himself. "Hello" she greeted the man, Marika has decided to let Haru take charge on this one, he was the host for this one.

[Father 'Suke]

Barkeep | Heero

Heero was cleaning a glass when two entities entered the bar. The first of course was seemingly energetic with chakra as was his speech pattern while second seemed so much calmer. Heero however only smiled kindly, the big glasses hiding his eyes away as he faced them while still polishing the same glass. "I'm sorry but you seemed to be in the wrong portion of the establishment. Across either the crosswalk of bedrooms upstairs or the road outside will take you to the correct with of the embassy. There is a secretary over there that handles those matters. However while you are here can I fancy either of you to a drink?" Whether they were underage or no, he had drinks of all varieties.

OOC: Silly Haru, taking a gal into a bar.

[enter]

Saruka swung the door open in frustration. He had been looking for that damn Haru guy for like four days now. His search had been a total waste of his precious time up to this point. He had been assigned to this guy's squad a month ago only to find that he didn't exist anywhere. When he spotted a pair of blonds standing with their back to him, he quickly shifted over towards them to ask about this AWOL guy. He tapped the fellows left shoulder and put on his own nonchalant gaze. "Yo man, I'm looking for this Harukiyo guy...about yea tall." He said making the gesture to about the follows hight. "Been impossible to catch up to." He said as he noticed that he had run into a bar. "Wait...what the hell?" He muttered quietly realizing that their embassy resembled a tavern more than a place of government...no surprise with how things were run in this odd village. He awaited the guys response before saying anything further. All that sat on his person currently were his opened pack of smokes and one of his used lighters. He sighed as he awaited the response.

[Harukiyo 強, 癒]

Harukiyo wears a long purple robe, its end reaches the ankles and the collar reaches his cheeks. He's not currently wearing his Amegakure forehead protector, but he usually wears it tied around his neck.

Harukiyo thanks the barkeep Heero, he bows at him, refusing the drink. Turning to his guest he asks ''Would you like some, Marika-chan?''
Suddenly Haru is tapped upon his shoulder, turning around he notices another Amegakure shinobi, just like him. The other shinobi asks if they know any 'Harukiyo'. ''What? Why you ask? It's me man. I'm Shinsuke Harukiyo.''

However, the 'nun and her companion', which almost gave them trouble back in Hi no Kuni, were at that bar, but wearing casual clothes this time, they were just waiting for their hired mercenary to leave the duo. Harukiyo wouldn't notice, at that time, they would angrily approach the trio, Saruka, Marika and the young Shinsuke. It would be clear that they could mean harm to the two blonds. Marika would notice them if she pays attention at Saruka's back, which was the position that they were coming from. Unfortunately Harukiyo wouldn't notice since he was talking to Saruka. The companion attempts to rear naked choke Saruka. That happening, Harukiyo would instantly rush fowards and shout ''BAKUYAKU!'' as he sends the opponent a powerful punch full of chakra to the forehead trying to not hit Saruka of course, it should send the bad guy meters back, crashing many tables on his way, the punch would be so heavy and strong that it would cause pain to Harukiyo's fists and wrists, it could easily break some of the companion's bones.

SPOILER: Click to show

Technique used:

Explosive Impact Fist - Bakuyaku Shintou Genkotsu
Rank: C

Skill: Taijutsu
Effect: A powerful form of universal Taijutsu techniques.
Special: None
Drawback: Takes a toll on the body especially the limbs
Description: A Powerful form of conventional TaiJutsu forms. The user releases a short-range burst of chakra on impact, this causes a small to large shock-wave that sends opponent back with ever powerful strike, adding in the user’s original strength and durability, a good combination. The drawback to this technique is the recoil from the shockwave, this causes pain in the impact area, fist, foot, knee or elbow. Depending on the users capability the shockwave can range from small, or large, able to send the opponent back 10-15 yards and easily break bones in the opponent, unfortunately this also increases the probability of breaking bones in the user, like knuckles and bones in the foot and arm etc.
Limit: Must be a Taijutsu specialist, must be physically strong and durable

OOC: Bar brawl time.

[Marika]

She has just said hello to the bartender when some funny looking person came asking for someone called "Harukiyo", it turns out this guy was looking for Haru ''What? Why you ask? It's me man. I'm Shinsuke Harukiyo.'' as funny as it looked the person was about in their teens, male and most likely a ninja from what he has said. Very unfortunate however was what followed, some strange man who has just been drinking too much from an earlier competition swung his body across the hallway latching onto Sakura, the new guy. Poor guy was looking at the prospects of getting horribly punched by Haru who was spooked by something it seems. Who knows how it'll end up. Before the fight however there was something the bartender said that caught her attention, they were in the wrong area? "I'm sorry but you seemed to be in the wrong portion of the establishment. Across either the crosswalk of bedrooms upstairs or the road outside will take you to the correct with of the embassy. There is a secretary over there that handles those matters. However while you are here can I fancy either of you to a drink?" Before even accepting the drinks the skirmish has begun.

[tekoro]

"Ah so your they guy...been looking every where for..." He said being cut off by the fellow that suddenly restrained his arms. As Haru's arm began to hurl I his direction, he took that moment to realize that something was going on. As Haru's hand hurled in his direction, he quickly moved his head to the side to slow the powerful blow to land upon the fellows face. He heard the cracking of bones as the fist collided with the skull of the poor fellow. At that action suddenly everyone in the room began to stand up aggressively. "Shit dude..." He said looking at the fellows now pulped face as he began to bounce on his toes. His body began to move as another fellow began to throw a punch straight at Haru from the side. Taking the initiate, Saruka quickly moved between Haru and his now incoming attacker. Using his left arm to intercept the blow, Saruka tried Knocking it off course.

His forearm ached from the hit, however he quickly followed up the strike with a lead armed jab that would position him for a more accurate straight punch. He heard the shattering of glasses as the bar began to break out in a huge fight. His fist connected with the attackers jaw line, just as Saruka shifted his weight to utilize his now free left arm. Placing his left foot forward, he launched a second straight punch which connected with the guys face head on. The cracking sound was fit rending. He watched as the fellow stumbled backwards. "Anyway, hey I'm your new squad mate." He said keeping his arms up as he awaited further combat.

[Harukiyo 強, 癒]

Haru was panting from the adrenaline, he didn't care if he killed the drunk dude or not, he just needed to get away from that scene before things got worse. ''Squad mate? Dude, follow me, we'll figure this soon.'' He grabs onto Marika's wrists and he sprints off the fighting area as soon as possible, proceeding on getting Marika an permission to enter Amegakure, he forcefully leads Marika min a getaway manner, heading to a single walkway over the main road, that takes them to the embassy for the  hidden village. Haru takes a seat in the embassy's lobby, he tells Marika to go talk to Kagami, the Secretary, pointing at the blondie as he still catches his breath. ''Talk...To her.'' Haru flicks his chin forwards, where Kagami should be.

[Marika]

Both shinobi were doing their thing while Marika was slightly frightened but none dared to lay their hands on her. From her point of view the shinobi were the cause of this, Haru acted strangely by punching someone out of the blue. The other shinobi was also his accomplice. Things got complicated as more and more men got angrier at the two who started it all. The punched man was lucky he got knocked out, now slept like a baby. Some more fighting happened when Haru came quickly to drag her out of there. They passed through to another building, it looked certainly better than the tavern, now this was more likely an embassy. ''Talk...To her.' Haru goaded her to speak with the receptionist. "Hello, I am Marika and I'd like to ask permission to enter your village. Where do I need to go?" she asked politely, still breathing heavily from running across the building. It would be much better if Haru explained it to the person in charge.

OOC: now this is more like it

[Father 'Suke]

Secretary | Kagami

Marika, an individual that was guided by two individuals that probably were newer recruits and by the by it wasn't an intention to letting anyone go anywhere unannounced. She looked at the two behind the girl and then back at her with curiosity, "What purpose is it that you wish to go into Amegakure?" Then with an accommodating look at the two boys, "You two, do either of you by chance have sensory confusion jutsu?" It was all apart of the plan, for one to enter they should have no record of really knowing which way to go, that was the fast plan, of course that was if the girl's reason to visit was good enough.

[tekoro]

Saruka quickly sprinted after Haru as the trio quickly exited the scene of the conflict. "Dude...not cool." He panted as they finally reached the lobby. "So what is It you two are doing out here?" He asked bracing himself against his knees. He didn't know what it was, but he really just wanted to return to the village. Hopefully that was the end game. Sighing as the receptionist began to do their thing. He just wanted to get out of here with as soon as possible. He had come all this way for a guy he didn't know and that threw him off more than the fact that he was still standing there waiting for them to get permission. As the question was asked, he quickly responded. "No I don't, if you like we can throw a blindfold over her head or something." He suggested lightly. He really didn't care honestly. " So...ready to go yet?" He asked shoving his hands into his pocket awaiting the word.

[Harukiyo 強, 癒]

After catching his breath he pulls himself up walking to Marika and Kagami. He answers the first question. ''She was invited by me, the reasons are leisure related only.'' — ''Nope, no confusion jutsu.'' — He knew that they needed Marika to not know the way to the insides of the village, but it sounded kind of gross in his opinion, and he didn't want Marika to be treated like that, at least she could not know then. That's why he nudges and frowns at Saruka when the shinobi says something about blind fold. He then takes Saruka's ear: ''Don't let her know she'll be fooled, man.''

[Marika]

The receptionist looked at her, that person looked scary somehow to Marika. Before she could tell of her purpose however Haru has interrupted her ''She was invited by me, the reasons are leisure related only.'' this was all true indeed. "It is as he says. He visited me and now he has invited me here." she confirmed however didn't like the idea the secretary suggested, sensory confusion jutsu was was that even. Some ninja trick or something, these people were rude in her opinion, especially the other shinobi who wanted to have her blindfolded. "Why would you need to blindfold me?" she asked, definitely not liking the idea. She was hoping this would go quicker but maybe there were more precautions the shinobi would make up, Mo in the other hand was more straightforward.

[Father 'Suke]

Secretary | Kagami

The secretary official shook her head, “That won’t do, won’t do at all. The gates just recently have opened and the Amekage has only just returned. For the time being leisure matters alone are not reason enough to enter the village. For leisure I suggest the resorts in the Land of Waves or the Land of Hotsprings rather than Ame no Kuni’s hidden village. It is a militaristic state, not a state of leisure as these two boys should know.” She sighed lightly with another shake of her head, “No I cannot feasibly see you coming into the village for a visit as of yet. We are still taking our precautions as there are four killers on the loose due to the past Amekage’s reign. When that is taken care of, perhaps then you may come into the village for… leisure.” The sound itself was off for the very word, foreign perhaps.

[tekoro]

At that Saruka realized the magnitude of the issue. Haru's friend would need to stay behind while they returned to the village. "Haru-san, we should probably be going." He said making a thumb like gesture towards the door. This girl could not enter the village according to the secretary, and that was that. In the ninja world you didn't ignore the rule. He looked at the pair awaiting a response of sort. The woman asked about being blind folded and Saruka really thought that would be something that might help them keep her from locating the village. "That's understandable, thanks for your assistance." He said politely to the clerk as he looked at Haru awaiting a response.

[Harukiyo 強, 癒]

''Yeah, thanks.'' Harukiyo Shinsuke agrees with the other Amegakure shinobi, nodding at the secretary. Indeed, there was nothing they could do and they should only follow the rules, that's how a ninja should be. ''I'm sorry Marika-chan. But hey, at least we know where eachother lives, right? I'll make sure to speak to the Kage, so he'll let you in as soon as possible. Again, I'm sorry Marika-chan.''

Displaying the perfect education condition that he was given by his dead wise elder parents, he bows towards the secretary and then at Marika. By remaining bent forwards at Marika he speaks: ''Again, I'm sorry, but I should really go. It was a great time traveling with you, Marika-... Sama.''  The girl is an idol and Harukiyo felt like he should praise her for her honesty. She didn't even know Haru that well and helped him while he was hurt and lead him to places he had never been befor, indeed the young Shinsuke felt happy to make a new friend outside the village, and that person was as important as an idol. He looks up at her, smiling, offering a polite handshake. ''Next time, you'll step in my village for some singing. I wanna hear it, it surely makes people happy.'' His smile was pure and gentle, and his words sounded truthful as an innocent baby. After the proper goodbyes, Harukiyo leaves the embassy with his new squad mate, Saruka. Harukiyo leads the way to Amegakure's gates, using some Shunshins ninjutsu on his way, to win time.

OOC: This was my first travel, on my first forum character EVER. It came to an end, but I gotta thank Febrie, Suke, Z, Suno, Yumiko, JiM, and everyone who was  part of it. It was a great experience. Loved it.

[Marika]

The secretary shook her head, she had her reasons for not allowing Marika entry at such an hour. It seems the Rain Shinobi can't provide security and she didn't really want to risk it either. Looks like she will have to go on scouting potential stages to perform around the capital for now. She thanked the secretary for her time and was prepared to leave. Haru was pretty apologetic after taking her all the way from Fire Country here to get denied entry. 'I'm sorry Marika-chan. But hey, at least we know where eachother lives, right? I'll make sure to speak to the Kage, so he'll let you in as soon as possible. Again, I'm sorry Marika-chan.''

She will have to contact him later or so "Well you know where to find me, it's been quite an adventure. Let's do it again sometimes." she bid him farewell, Marika was very good with farewells by this point. ''Next time, you'll step in my village for some singing. I wanna hear it, it surely makes people happy.'' Haru still managed to say before she left. Giving him a wave of hands she turned around to leave. Well then, what now? she entered the wet pavement. Was it just raining? Whatever
