Sand Village Embassy

[kento]

Kento peeked open an eye as the sounds of footsteps stop short of the entrance to the Sand Village Embassy.

What the hell is it this time? The eighteen year old boy thought to himself with a roll of his eyes. He had been waiting here for weeks and no one had come to pick him up to go to the Hidden Sand Village. The boy stretched as he stood up from the chair he was in and rolled an arm to loosen it up. His purple Kimono flowed down to the ground, a Katana hanging on his waist. The door opened and a man entered into the room. By the looks of him, he didn't appear to be a ninja. The boy's stomache sank and irritation at the Sand Village swelled in his chest. What the hell were they doing? They had someone waiting here and they couldn't spare a single man to pick him up? Tch... how lame... Whatever, this guy had nothing to do with it. Kento sighed and bowed stiffly to the person who entered.

"Welcome, what's your business here friend?" Kento asked the white-eyed man who had entered. White eyes? That wasn't something you saw everyday... A ninja? Kento didn't see anything pin pointing him as a ninja... The boy mentally shrugged.

The sound of a muffled voice carried in from outside between the cracks in the door to allow ventalation in the building. By the sounds of it, it was a man. Was this the group that was going to be escorting him to the village at long last?

"Well! It's about time you guys got here!" Kento said with a grin, truely believing this man was one of the Shinobi sent to escort him to the Hidden Sand Village. "So, when do we go?" He asked, his hands coming up and crossing over his chest.

Not a bad place.

The capital was a bustling place, full of life and business. It was a rather refreshing sight after the trek in the desert. The Hyuuga scion looked around, taking in the sights. Though he trusted that this was a neutral area as the Godaime had said, there was no guarantee that assassins would not attack such a place. Then, when the four man cell reached the doors of the embassy, the Godaime would perform a clone technique, creating a perfect replica of him and to which he gave the letter. Such a manuever might prove necessary, as it always proved to be careful, especially in a country where relations were not exactly the best at the moment. Hopefully that letter would change that. After doing that, the Godaime turned and spoke to the three of them, giving out his orders.

"Make a loose perimeter around here. Each of you take a point, and communicate only through your radio if you see something suspicious. Do not engage anyone unless you’re together. Maintain radio silence, and speak only when things are important. Move out!"

Tenma nodded, and the team began to move out, each going to their different stations. While Tenma knew that the Godaime's Byakugan was activated, he saw no harm in activating his own, especially when the Godaime's attention would mostly be focused on what lay behind that door, not that Akira would not be able to see either. Choosing a area where there was shade, Tenma leaned against the wall of the embassy with piercing white occuli hidden by the shadows, yet seeing everything that was going on. He touched his com device. Should anything happen, he would be the one to tell his teammates. He kept track of their locations and movements. With nothing else to do but to remain alert, Tenma waited.

[We’re leaving. Five days was the threshold.]

Upon arriving at the attendant for the embassy, the clone would produce the treaty papers and fork them over, all while speaking his intentions in a low tone. Given the status of the package, including the official village seal used and authentic signature of the Hokage within, it would undoubtedly be seen as genuine. Though staying around for conversation would be optimal, time was of the essence, and the group had little to spare. Once the treaty was handed over, he’d speak few brief words before turning around to exit. No one would be addressed during the process.

“I bring peaceful words form Leaf; the Hokage has prepared a treaty for the Kazekage to consider. Should he find the terms favorable, then please have him send an envoy to our embassy to confirm it. Like this institution, they are located within the capital.”

“Good bye.”

And with that, he’d be off. Once outside, he’d reunite with his master and the rest of the squad in order to move out. Ichi would call his team over with a simple command across the radio, the words uttered low so only those tuned in to their secret, unhaxable channel could understand. With everyone gathered, it’d be time to move. White eyes continued to view the world as their exit steps were taken, and if any suspicious characters chose to trail their paths, then they’d be dealt with adequately out in the country, where no one could stop them.

Exit!

[The FOx. ( Daichi )]

[OOC: Breaking posting order to exit srry. Short and to the point.]

A voice would be heard over the secret unhaxable channel giving the command to head out. Without hesitation Kousei would leap off the balcony and bounce from the previously used ledge before finally plopping onto the ground below. Brisk steps moved him onward towards the group closing the eleven meters of distance to just a single meter. Following behind the Godaime they would make their way out.

[Exit]

[Ancestor Febrie]

Standing near a lemonade stand Chiaki heard a voice over the communicator telling them they are about to leave. She walked to the embassy and waited for others to come too. After everyone had gathered they left Wind Capital. Chiaki followed the Godaime and Kousei.

[Exit]

[Kirin]

The moment that the clone began to leave the embassy, Tenma got off the wall. His Byakugan told him that the treaty was done with. Deactivating it, he then heard a few words whispered to him over his radio. Nodding, he moved out of the shadows and swiftly caught up with the rest of his team. Now, they were done here. It was time to move on. Smiling, Tenma then left the capital, walking behind his teammates.

[Exit]

[Zetsumei]

From the gate the priestly figure moved, form fitting clothing forged of sand unmoving in the wind. Yet on he moved throughout the desert sands, 'til at last he made his way through the gates into the city. Through the streets of Hitofuki did the sand man walk to the Village's Embassy. Footfalls almost silent as he entered the great building, hopefully with Kakaru not too far behind and without speaking he looked around to find the note sender and possibly any other business that needed attending. Several papers upon the desk caught his eye and he moved over to look upon them, the one interested in joining the Village would show up eventually as he looked through the pages.

[Beltran]

Kakaru stood outside of the embassy as he waited for the Kazekage to preform what it was that he had traveled for. Leaning on the building, he removed a pair of sunglasses from his jacket as he lounged, waiting for something to happen.

[kento]

Kento sat in the Embassy, watching the clock as he did every day from 12:00 to 1:30. The minute hand positioned a little past the eleven moved slowly across the face making its way toward the twelve at the very pinnacle of the machine. Could you go a little slower? I can't feel myself age yet... The young man thought to himself to the clock as he let out a long winded sigh and closed his eyes. The boy almost willed time to speed up but knew it would only drag on as it did everyday since he had reached the Embassy. The purple Kimono the boy wore was freshly washed as he did everyday since he had gotten to facilities that allowed it. Having walked through a bandit infested dessert for three days was bad enough to make the once pampered boy not so keen on repeating the experience of having sand up every crack in one's body.

The sound of footsteps neared as it nearly mimicked the clock's constant tick. One... no... Two... The door opened and the boy peeked a single eye open to see who it was intruding in the peaceful haven he had grown so used to being alone in. It was a person about his own age. No one else followed and Kento assumed the other had decided to take a break in the hot sun outside. It puzzled Kento how they could bear such intense heat... but he didn't complain, he had started to get used to the climate by now anyway. The guy looked kinda like a priest in the way he was dressed. A dark Gray shirt, long pants, black shoes... yep, this guy dressed about as fancy as he did going to a party sometime back when he was still in Mizugakure. Kento watched as the man walked to the desk that held the reports of those who wished entrance into Sunagakure... perhaps more...

Kento waited, seated patiently as the man looked through the pile of papers. Just who is this guy? he wondered to himself opening his other eye and shifting himself to sit up straighter than he had been seated a moment before. He couldn't bend his back too much, so the position he was in varied in the smallest degree.

[Zetsumei]

The sound of shuffling pages seemed to be all that sounded within the Embassy. The Suna Hito continued to gaze upon the pages until one in particular caught his eye, a document from the Leaf Village. As he read on he saw that it seemed to be a peace treaty set on their terms, as if he would sign it. Turning while keeping his eyes upon the page on which the treaty was written and continued to look upon it. Expressionless was his face as he read on to see their wishes, chuckling to himself almost silently a humorless chuckle to make the skin of some crawl.

[Beltran]

Kakaru grew tired of waiting outside quickly as he entered the embassy. He looked over the interior as his eyes quickly fell upon a young man with no headband. His initial reaction was to tighten his own headband around his head slightly and fidget with it a bit also. Looking over to the Kazekage, he noticed he was ruffling through the papers that seemed to go on forever. "Kazekage-sama, if I may ask. What caught your attention? I noticed you stopped at a page. If it is not of my concern, feel free to tell me I am out of line." Kakaru said as he stood behind him with his hands behind his back, momentarily eying the unknown person with a sort of quiet intensity as he awaited his answer.

[Zetsumei]

(Skipping Kento to get this going. Belt, start a thread and I'll join you in a bit.)

His attention was caught up in the wording of the treaty so much that he had not heard Kakeru enter. Though his voice startled the Kazekage he showed no sign of the surprise, "Oh this? It's just a treaty from Leaf, I'll take it to the tower." With that said he turned and walked from the building.

[Exit]

[Beltran]

Kakaru exited the Embassy, as he did he figured he would travel back to Sand to gear back up, in case he needed anything for his mission.

-Exit-

[unforgiven]

[Enter with Solia]

Arriving at the embassy, Toram went towards the village quarters part of the embassy, believing it was the right place to take her. Going to the center, he looked around to see if this was where he was to take her since this was his first trip to the embassy. "Is this where we were supposed to go to? Are we at the right place?" he asked her, forgetting that she wasn't born here, but might know something. Walking around with her on his shoulder, he looked around, circling the middle of it looking at all the houses there.

[solia]

Solia would glimps and shrug. "I only know the outside, not the inside. I came here with a caravan and left here with them. We didn't stay in here." She would look down on him, "But if this is where Village residents stay, then I guess just pick one."

This embassy looks rather annoying for the most part, they all look the same, "That one doesn't have a mark. I guess it will do." She would point at the one just inside the living area on the left. No mark marks the door and with marks on the other doors, it seems obvious to her.

"Toram, can you teach me sumthin. Anything will do, it can be Academy like jutsu that one would know there. Just teach me something."

[unforgiven]

"I only know the outside, not the inside. I came here with a caravan and left here with them. We didn't stay in here. But if this is where Village residents stay, then I guess just pick one." she said as they walked around. Walking around, Toram looked at Solia from time to time, and saw her pointing at a door without a mark on it, for some reason she thought it would do. "That one doesn't have a mark. I guess it will do." she told him as he headed towards it. Opening the door he peeked inside, looking at the whole house to see what it was like and he put Solia in a chair. "Toram, can you teach me sumthin. Anything will do, it can be Academy like jutsu that one would know there. Just teach me something." she told him, but he didn't want to right now after there long trek. "In a little bit, I have to do some things first," he said as he entered the kitchen.

[solia]

Solia would gaze at him funny as he simply sat her in the chair, but then would pop up when he went back into the kitchen. She would stay there a second and slip out of the room behind him back outside. As with any child, things fascinate. Though of course she is not used to being inside at all for very long. She slips up the tree right outside the door and sits in it. Her eyes would also scan everything else. Wanting to look at these surroundings.

The little one puzzles her own thoughts now. She knows Rouge would be happy for her that she has found a real way to survive, but would the Village be the smartest thing. If Solia joins the Village like was declared, she would be in a place where she can learn what Rouge taught her and more. Though the thought does show maturity, can she truely forgive as she said. Perhaps if she stays with Toram. Maybe she can trust him enough to help her learn. But she cannot be sure of anything anymore. All of this is uncharted territory for the child.

She yawns and stretches. Though reflexivly she lays in the tree that only stands perhaps six feet in height and curls up, letting her brownish eyes close, falling asleep right there.

[unforgiven]

After going into the kitchen, Toram made himself and Solia a little snack and put it onto a tray to bring it out to her. As he entered the entrance room where he had left Solia, he saw that she was missing from where he put her. Putting the tray down on the table next to the chair he put her in, he got back up and left the house to go check where she had gone to to see if she was alright. Looking around after taking a step outside the door and saw a tree nearby with her laying it, basically asleep in it and with a leg dangling.

Putting his hands under her, one under her back and the other under her legs, he picked her up and brought her close to him as he let her rest. Entering the house, he went to the nearest bedroom that he could find and put her in it, making sure to cover her up with blankets. Tucking her safely into the bed, he lightly kissed her forehead before turning off the light to let her sleep in peace. After, he pulled up a chair up against a wall to keep watch over her, making sure that she was safe and sound in this new place.

[solia]

Not feeling herself be moved at all, she simply keeps snoozing for an hour or two easy. Her little cat naps is what kept her going majorly in the wild worlds beyond. However now it seems that she doesn't really need to worry about such trival things.

Solia pops up suddenly, realizing that she isn't in the tree anymore. Rather this time it is a bed with blankets and a pillow. A yawn sounding almost like a meow with the empasis on the ow, can be heard and she would hop up just the same. Pulling her cap off and leaving it there, silver shoulder length hair falls. Obviously her band broke. "Oh man. Oh well."

She would slip out into the living room area where Toram is as well as the snacks he made. Mostly veggitables but she is ok with that, she hardly gets them anyway. She takes the plate of them and has a seat in the floor and starts munching.

[N I R A S H I]

A man dressed in a brown vest and brown slacks, a bellboy of the Embassy arrived in the area in which Toram and Solia was located; the living room. "Toram. Solia. The Kazekage of Sunagakure has sent his royal summon for you to return to the village. The summon has requested you meet him outside the embassy so he may take you to the village."

If the two would follow the man would lead them outside to Slyfer.
