[Fujitora Hanzo/Azujinko Hanzo]

Val’Shu would walk into the remodeled embassy. His old eyes smiled as he looked upon the new building. It was very well done. He smiled as the raven upon his shoulder looked around, in truth, this raven was one of his constant watchers, one of the three fates. The others were circling the building outside as ravens. He smiled as he used his folded scythe as a walking stick, the feather beard he had swaying gently as his own bones moved him. He made his way toward the desk of Yuki, the woman who seemed incharge of the building. “Such a lovely place, different from when I was last here.” The raven would caw and peck at his cheek as he waved at her in impatiants. “Yes yes, im getting to that, calm yourself you foul bird. My name is Val’Shu, I am here to see if I may visit the Vilalge, under shinobi watch of course. I wish to speak with the kage.”

[Natsy]

//Enter

The Embassy looked rather different from when I had been here last. Had Yuuki done renovations? I step forward opening the door while slipping on my Ceremonial Hat. Once inside, I was immediately greeted by a beautiful, lush lobby with the desk, Yuuki and a visitor in sight. The last bit of the visitor’s request flooded to me. “Who wishes to speak with me?” I ask, raising my head to peer over at the man standing in front of Yuuki’s desk.

The woman remained in her seat, her gaze falling back to the paperwork on her desk. She was clearly unneeded. I still wore my Godaime Outfit consisting of a strapless dress and knee high four inch boots. My black cloak rustled around my body causing the thirty kunai, forty five bo-shuriken and two scalpels to rustle faintly as I came to a stop. Beneath the cloak I had a butt bag filled with thirty blood clot pills and another ten kunai while my world map remained in my left hand.

Two hand axes were strapped around my waist, attached to the butt bag while my Bo-staff was sitting in its slot embedded into the hem of my cloak. It was within easy reach and will be the first weapon I grabbed should a fight occur.

[Fujitora Hanzo/Azujinko Hanzo]

Val'Shu would smile gently as the kage would enter. His raven would turn to see her and squack as he shooed her off his shoulder. "Oh hush! You have no right to judge her appearance. You and your sisters are not always eye candy ether." The crow would look shocked as though he had wounded her somehow. "Dont mind my friend, she is very old. My name Val'Shu. Ive come to speak of potential partnership with my shrines." He would extend a hand in a gentle gesture for a hand shake.

[Natsy]

As I approached the embassy’s guest, his bird began squawking horribly until he silenced it. The man was also incredibly tall. My eyes widened as I stopped a meter away from him. He is in fact, the tallest man I have ever laid eyes on. So his name was Val’Shu, and his desires was to form a partnership of some kind. I narrow my eyes, but accepts the handshake nonetheless. “Rosalie Salt. I see no headband, are you a merchant?” I ask, withdrawing my hand from his and tucking it beneath my cloak.

[Fujitora Hanzo/Azujinko Hanzo]

ValShu smiled gently as he shook her hand. "I am no merchant, I am...how would you say in your language... a Priest of sorts." He smiled gently as he learned of her life through touch thanks to his mastery of his soul. "You suffered through such pain when you became kage...And i assume your going to the newest exams? Concidering the failure you suffered before, i can understand why." He smiled softly.

[Natsy]

A priest? Well that was interesting. A very tall priest. I nodded. “So what did you want to gain from me, Val’Shu?” I ask. However when he spoke of my past experiences, my smile dropped and was replaced by a small frown. How did he know that? “Well, yes. That is my plan.” My tone had turned a little defensive as I regarded him. Just what kind of priest was he?

“I hate to be rude, Val’Shu but I do have to address my shinobi regarding the exams, so I must be going. So please state what you need so we can settle things?” I tried to keep the politeness in my voice, my mind was rushing with thoughts and other feelings. But I needed to do many things before I headed off to the exams.

[Fujitora Hanzo/Azujinko Hanzo]

Val'Shu would nod as he picked up a apple from the desk, he let the raven peck at it. "In short...I need a new home, where i can get missions, but also keep my freedom to visit my shrines when need be. Could your village provide that? i would gladly allow you to use my abilities when needed."

[Natsy]

So the priest had wanted a place to live as well as to earn a living within the walls of my village. He even offered his services should I require them. I pondered on this for a few minutes, thinking how useful a priest could be toward my shinobi as well as the opposing threat that was the Mechanist. I nodded. “I can accept that. You can accompany me back to Takigakure and will be granted a working visa and a house of your choosing.”

I paused for a moment. “Although very shortly, I will be in need of your services soon. I have a threat that needs taken care of.” I said happily before stepping around Val-Shu and moving over toward Yuuki. The middle-aged woman glanced up from her seated position and fixed me with an offering smile. “Yuuki, can you alert me immediately should Ace return to the Embassy please? I am expecting him.” I then said, smiling at the woman. Her son Zhul was nowhere to be seen, yet he was lurking nearby.

“Of course, my lady. Should Mr. Debutler Ona arrive, I will send notice to the tower immediately.” Yuuki said softly, writing down the small note upon the sheet of paper sitting upon her desk. I nodded and turned back toward Val’Shu. “Shall we head off, then?” I ask, waiting for an answer.

//Attempted Exit

[Fujitora Hanzo/Azujinko Hanzo]

Val'Shu would simply nod and follow the girl, the ravens who circled the building landing on his shoulders as he did.

EXIT

[[Naka]]

[Enter]

As I neared the Embassy, I could see it in the distance, all smooth lines and pretty colors. This large building looked more like someone's personal mansion rather then an Embassy for the entire country. In a few minutes more, I walked up to the gate. Opening it, I would walk through unchallenged, and into the building.

Walking into the lobby, I would look around for someone to speak with. If I saw no one, I would call out: "Hello? Is anyone here?". I would wait until someone showed up (or simply speak to the person nearby, if yelling was unnecessary), then speak to them in a more normal tone. Adjusting the ANBU mask upon my face imperceptibly, I would ask: "Excuse me, where might I find the Feudal Lord? I have come from Takigakure to secure a mission for him."

[Natsy]

Zhul continued to watch the newcomer carefully from his place hidden within the barbican. It had been a long time since the Embassy had seen an AnBU on the premises so the interest in his expression was clearly seen should Naka stare directly at him. Zhul did not approach, he merely observed. As Naka walked into the Lobby in hopes of seeking service, Yuuki peeked around the side of one of the walls leading into a hallway. “Ah, yes I am here.” She said, blinking when she realized who stood before her.

“An AnBU? Wow, what a pleasant surprise. The Feudal Lord can be contacted via the Embassy, please take a seat in one of the chairs while I summon him for you.” Yuuki said softly, moving toward the large desk with a purple chair seated behind it. The chairs that she had mentioned were sitting directly in front of the desk, directly in Naka’s line of vision. After taking a seat, Yuuki picked up the phone and punched in a few numbers before holding it up to her right ear.

Zhul lingered just outside of the Lobby just in front of the front door. “Hello my lord, this is Yuuki speaking from the Embassy. We have an AnBU Cat here wishing for an audience regarding a mission you issued out. Can you come down to the Embassy please?” A brief pause. “Okay, thank you.” Yuuki said before placing the phone down upon the receiver. Her attention was then turned to Naka. “The Feudal Lord is on his way. Would you like any refreshments while you wait?” She then asked, moving around the side of the desk, her body angled toward the direction of the kitchen.

[[Naka]]

“Ah, yes I am here.” A woman approached from around the corner in response to my calling out. After listening to the remainder of what I had to say, she replied.

“An AnBU? Wow, what a pleasant surprise. The Feudal Lord can be contacted via the Embassy, please take a seat in one of the chairs while I summon him for you.” I nodded politely, taking one of the seats that had been offered. The woman proceeded to sit across from the desk from me, and to place a phone call to the Feudal Lord.

“Hello my lord, this is Yuuki speaking from the Embassy. We have an AnBU Cat here wishing for an audience regarding a mission you issued out. Can you come down to the Embassy please? ... Okay, thank you.” I would be seemingly relaxed (or as relaxed as a man in a mask might appear), but I would also be listening intently.

“The Feudal Lord is on his way. Would you like any refreshments while you wait?” She asked. I replied softly "No thank you, I am fine."

The truth was, I was a bit hungry and thirsty from the journey, but in order to eat and drink I would have to remove my mask, and I preferred to keep this part of my identity as completely separate as possible from the remaining parts.

[Natsy]

Yuuki stared at the mask shielding the emotion hidden beneath for a moment longer. But gave up after around two seconds. However, another two seconds later the double doors leading outside suddenly swung open and the Feudal Lord stepped into the Lobby, his frame blocking out the sunlight from the outside. Zhul stepped swiftly to the side, head bowed low as the Feudal Lord’s porky frame moved further into the building with each step. The gleam in his eye glistened in the brightly lit room. “Where is the AnBU you speak of, Yuuki?” His voice was deep, resounding. An impolite voice and tone as such.

Stopping exactly 300 centimetres away from Naka’s chair, the Feudal Lord looked down at the ninja seated in the chair. Yuuki bowed low to the man and gestured toward the chair. “Right here, sir. May I get you anything?” She then asked, straightening her posture. For a moment the Feudal Lord simply stared but soon shook his head. “No, I am fine. How about this young fellow?” He then asked, black beady eyes claiming every inch of Naka’s cat mask.

The Feudal Lord walked toward the chair seated opposite Naka before sitting down upon it. The chair made a slight squeak as his weight weighed down upon it. The sound was like pushing hot air out of a balloon. Whether or not Naka spoke, the Feudal Lord would quickly pluck out a slip of parchment from the underside of his Kimono and place it upon the coffee table separating the two men. Should Naka pick up the paper to inspect it, the list would read:

To Kill List:

Name: Susan Lee
Age: 24
Specialities: Kamyuja, Ninjutsu Specialist, Taijutsu Specialist, A Class.
Appearance: Image
Last Known Location: Taki no Kuni

Name: Marii Akiyama
Age: 15

Last Known Location: Shimo no Kuni

Name: Yuki Hotaru
Age: 22
Specialities: Yamanaka, Clan Specialist, Taijutsu Specialist, A Class.

Last Known Location: Tsuki no Kuni

“The list isn’t long this time round, but I do have more to be added to the list.” The Feudal Lord said smugly. “Despite they’re all women, none of them are to be trusted, pretty we things but deadly. That Hotaru woman is a real mind tester that one.” He then added with a slight chuckle. A faint blush flooded his cheeks as well. The Feudal Lord averted his gaze and shifted in his chair. If Naka had anything to say, now was the time to say it.

[Natsy]

While the Feudal Lord and AnBU had their conversation, the phone sitting on Yuuki’s desk would suddenly ring. Bewildered, the young woman moved behind the desk and picked up the phone. “Hello, you have reached the Taki no Kuni Embassy and is speaking with Yuuki, what can I do for you?” Yuuki’s voice spoke softly. For a brief moment the kunochi was silent as the information was spoken. “Thank you, I will inform them right away upon their arrival.” Yuuki placed the phone down upon the receiver and jotted down a note:

“Two shinobi are traveling to Embassy to speak with Feudal Lord regarding ransom.”

[[Naka]]

After only a few moments waiting, a large, bearded man walked into the embassy. This must be the Feudal Lord. Much larger than a man should be, and carrying it mostly around his waist. He also appeared to be rude. “Where is the AnBU you speak of, Yuuki?”

I had turned my face slightly to look at him as he entered the doorway, and I would continue staring at him, unblinking, as he ventured towards me. My host bowed to him, and indicated my obvious seated figure in response to his question. I would continue to look his face and into his eyes, mine cold as winter and twice as harsh. Perhaps he would become uncomfortable and look away; I would not.

I would remain silent throughout his interactions, giving no response to his question of me. In a moment he would sit down opposite me, and rummaging through his clothes would produce a slip of parchment, placing it upon the table. A quick movement, hardly seen by his eyes, would place the slip from the table into my pouch. I could read it later.

“The list isn’t long this time round, but I do have more to be added to the list.” the fat man said. “Despite they’re all women, none of them are to be trusted, pretty we things but deadly. That Hotaru woman is a real mind tester that one.” After speaking he seemed to get uncomfortable, something related to this woman "Hotaru".

I would allow a moment to pass in silence before speaking simply. "It will be done." And with that, I would stand and walk out of the embassy.

[Exit]

[Lord of Cold]

An Owl!



From the North, a snowy owl would arrive, with a letter held, rolled up, and sealed, in its clutches. It would coo several times, tap gently on the door of the embassy, and deposit its note, hoping that the people inside would find the letter. The bird would take flight instantly, probably trying to return to Yukigakure, which any who knew the village well, would know it belonged to. No other village uses such beasts for its messengers.

The letter read:

Esteemed Takikage,
I, Jorik of Ygnrid, am the new Yukikage. But, especially considering the resignation and potential death of the previous Yukikage, the village is in quite dire straits. While I do not know for a fact, there is a high likelihood that the denizens of the Hidden Leaf are lurking around every corner, and my crippled population is ill-suited to handle it. If you, and some ninja, would come here, to Yuki no Kuni, to negotiate terms with me, perhaps terms that would allow some of your ninja to stay here for a spell, to help revive my village, we could further the alliance which I am told I hold with you, and perhaps plot the downfall of Konoha, or the restoration of the Waterbelt of old which I am oft told of. Please write your reply as soon as you can.
Sincerely yours,
The King in the North."

[Natsy]

A tapping noise suddenly echoed throughout the Lobby of the Embassy. Zhul turned around after watching the AnBU Cat leave the building. Yuuki however, would hand the message over to the Feudal Lord whom still remained seated in the chair. While he waited for the two shinobi to arrive, Zhul would open the double doors only to see the tail feathers of a white owl leaving the premises.

The envelope laid upon the floor was blank, suggesting that it was hastily written and delivered. After handing it to his mother, Yuuki would open the envelope and discover the contents to be written from a new Yukikage. Immediately the kunochi would move to her desk and write another letter, this time to the Godaime herself. The letter would also be sent with the Yukikage’s.

Upon finishing the letter itself, Yuuki would call upon a Messenger Beetle and attach both letters to the beast’s horns before setting it off toward the village…

[Natsy]

The Fedual Lord was not entirely pleased to see the reaction and reply from the AnBU and had folded his arms across his chest in agitation. As Naka stood from his seated position opposite the Feudal Lord, the man would attempt to stand. “You report to me the moment you have disposed of those targets. Understand?” The lord’s voice had lowered to a gruff of a tone. He was unhappy. But seeing that the AnBU had already left the embassy, the Feudal Lord’s cheeks would flare a bright and angry red before he turned toward Yuuki. “Anything else?” He asked.

Yuuki smiled pleasantly despite the mood within the building. “Ah yes, my lord. There is a team of shinobi that are traveling here as we speak. It is concerning your daughter.” She said softly, her gaze lingering on Naka’s fleeing figure as he made his way to the doors. Zhul continued to watch the occupants inside the embassy, but studied Naka as he moved past him.

[🔥Bootysmith🍑]

Enter.

Tevin entered the embassy, his eyes moved around examining the big mansion from top to bottom. He had always heard about Taki no kuni's embassy being big, but he never expected it to be this big. He quickly checked if his outfit was alright before pushing the doors open. As the door opened, they revealed a lobby. He entered the lobby, his eyes scanned the whole place before he spotted a desk in the room. He quickly made his way towards the desk. "Good afternoon, we're here to see the Feudal lord." he would say to the person before, in a formal way. Should more information about them be needed, he would leave all that to Kazuki.
