{Suna Jounin Exam} Kiwage Island (C)

[Koori.]

Nirashi gave me his gourd, and I swiftly used my chakra and knowledge within my kekkei genkei to replace my wet sand. Nirashi gourd would soon be filled with wet sand as I seemingly crawled into it, and came out a new man, so to speak. Success felt good, even at such a price. I survived, and that was all that mattered; you had to put your body on the line as a shinobi sometimes. It was here as the boats met the shore and we allowed the people of the island to ascend to their new civilization that the thought he hit me.

"We forgot the mayor didn't we?"

I gave. I didn't like the guy, and he was bone headed, but no one deserved death. However then again, I might be jumping to conclusions, Nirashi may have grabbed him? But in the end, even if not, one death was better then the whole island of people. I looked off into the distance as I stepped onto shore and gave Nirashi his gourd back. The island was an island no more, more of a lava pit, with black smoke clouds brewing in the air high above.

Regardless, Toshi was more then capable of leading these people. The rebuilding phase would begin here regardless of how long it was going to take, the point was that they were alive and safe. The Peninsula would prove a good new home for these people. Me and Nirashi had done it! Now, to let these people get back to their new lives, and set out for Suna.

Nirashi would say goodbye to the fellows as Toshi shook his hand before departure. The contractor would sign off on their mission scroll as he wished the duo goodbye. This mission felt quite different. He was not a killer. Not a fighter. But a savior. Was this what being a ninja was all about. Hours and years he sat building his body, his mind, his chi. He gained a powerful arsenal and lived up to the Spartan name, yet was there ever a moment in life like this.

His hazel eyes took one more look at the smiling faces of people. Catching his attention was a crawling baby, who crawled to the shore and stood as the two left. The black skies did not rain on their joy. He then pictured the island, empty and barren; the image of failure. Look at what the shinobi have done, they have done the greatest deed of them all. Not kill for nationalism. Yet, saved for the sake of life.
