Hikaru grinned and he stood up. This is what he loved to do. Being the hero, helping people in need, just plain being himself! He was born and bred to be a ninja.

Misaki however looked away, and this caught the notice of her boyfriend.

"Whats bugging you?" Hikaru asked her.

"I... don't think I should go..." she muttered as soft as she could. The look of shock on Hikaru's face could not be shaken. "I just think my place is here, with the people of Konoha, and that I should stay behind in case of an attack."

"Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke will stay here. The three of them could level an entire village full of ninja by themselves. Besides your place is with us, your our local medic!" Hikaru explained.

The girl nodded as the the two conversed.

Meanwhile Sasuke appeared on stage next to Naruto and pointed at his 'son'. "Who is that?" he questioned.

As Sasuke pointed Kaoru out, Naruto shrugged. "I don't know! It's not like I know everyone's every move! What do I look like, Santa Claus?"

Naruto was somewhat lying-- not about being Santa Claus, who he totally wasn't, but about knowing everything. Naruto could probably find out anything he wanted to know very easily, but he did enjoy pushing Sasuke's buttons.

"I don't know who he is, but he look really familiar..."

Meanwhile, Sakura clenched her fists as Lavan ran to join his group. "Ugh! He was no help..." She looked around until she spotted Kaoru. Her eyes flashed that red color again, and she ran over to talk to him.

Naruto saw this, and though he couldn't hear their conversation, anyone who saw them talking could tell they knew each other.

"Why don't you ask Sakura who he is?" Naruto asked Sasuke.

Nanami was thinking hard about what was going on. She hadn't expected to be leading anyone. She wondered if perhaps Sayuri and her's appointment was because of their work at the Police Station. Perhaps Konoha's elders wanted them to get more leadership experience...?

She shook her head. Whatever the reason, she was going to take this seriously. She jumped down to the middle of the area and crossed her arms.

"Alright! If you're coming, then get what you need and get to the front gates! This mission is starting now!"

(Anybody need to do anything else, or can I start the journey now? :3)

Lavan finally nodded. It seemed their conversation finished, and a decision has been reached, a decision which all 4 of them agreed on, though Kunnai looked a little more sour than usual. Lavan walked over to Nanami then, coming right up to her with a rather business-like expression.

"All right. We will have to stop by Yougankure no Sato for re-equipment. Our equipment is exhausted, and we will NOT be pulling on your village's resources. So I will say this: You and the others are now formally invited into Yougankure no Sato as the first guests from Konoha. HOWEVER. I will NOT allow the Kaoru kid in. I do not trust him, I do not know him, and I will NOT let him into Yougankure. Not until I can trust him with my life. It will also be to your advantage to visit, since our master of intelligence would be able to give us the latest updates on the situation."

He grinned, his mood shifting from business to playful in a millisecond. "Otherwise, we are ready to follow you, Uchiha Nanami-taichou!"

Country Road

After securing their supplies, saying any goodbyes and doing whatever else was necessary, the team moved out. Things were calm and relatively quiet as they made their way out of Fire Country.

Their first destination was Yougankure no Sato. The Hidden Village was closest to the now 'unknown village', and likely the best place to start their investigation. As they got closer to Yougankure, however, something strange happened.

Like, really strange.

On the road in front of them, the ground opened up and a man emerged from beneath the earth. He was dressed more like a farmer than a ninja, and didn't seem to be carrying any weapons. With a terrible groan, he staggered towards the group.

"Go... Back..."

Then he collapsed in front of them, clearly dead.

Nanami raised an eyebrow. "I don't suppose this is some warning from your village?" She asked Lavan.

Country Road (take me hooooome to the plaaaaace I beloooong-- LOL)

Sayuri had been walking down the road, holding the hand of a boy-- this boy, however, was not her boyfriend Musashi, but her apparently long-lost brother Kaoru, whose "mother" had told him to tag along.

"Don't worry, Kaoru!" Sayuri assured Kaoru. "This'll probably be a quick, standard-type mission! It won't be scary or anything; though, as a skilled ninja, I'm not really scared of anyth--"

Before she could finish her sentence, the man rose from the ground and warned the ninja to turn around. Sayuri screamed, jumping and clinging onto Musashi like a frightened cat.

"Z-Z-ZOMBIE!"

Meanwhile, Kaoru wasn't moved at all.

Musashi wasn't exactly thrilled at Kaoru's coming, either -- nor did he like that the kid was hanging around Sayuri, claiming to be her brother. There was just no way . . .

Musashi blinked; in a second Sayuri was hanging onto him for dear life, and someone with no life was speaking to them. He gave a little sigh -- he knew this was going to be one of those adventures.


"He's not a zombie." Nanami crossed her arms, and she looked even more irritable than at her most annoyed. "I've seen this technique before . . ."

There was only one thing that could mean; her tone of voice and the angry glare in her eyes. It was the kind of technique that 'he' used.

Given the nature of this mission, it certainly wasn't surprising that a trap such as the "zombie" appeared. In fact, it likely meant that they were headed the right way, since such a site would certainly scare away the casual passerby. However, it also meant that the person/people who set it up were quite confident, and likely had more traps set up within the area they were headed to, to catch anyone not scared off by the "zombie". And they might have had a connection with someone who'd been dead about a year now.

Thinking such, Raida remained silent, as that all wasn't anything that the others of this group wouldn't know already. Though thinking of that person again was not exactly pleasant for Raida.

Ryukku, who also was along on this mission, also remained quiet. However, this was mainly because of the member of this whole group that made no sense being on this mission..

(The yellow dot represents where the group is. Numa is the Land of Swamps, which is where Yougankure is. ((HA told me so)) This is so everyone has some idea where we are.)

Nanami had her arms crossed. She knew they had entered the Land of Swamps, and she too expected there were more traps coming. The unknown village was still pretty far away -- and so was Yougankure.

"Everyone stay sharp." She called as she continued to walk. She did not like this, not at all...

"Lavan. How close are we to Yougankure?" She asked, looking over to the redhead.

The group had just entered 'The Great Swamp'. There was something moving through the murky bog, as well...

"This is DEFINITELY not a present from buddies up at Yougan... We don't do any necromancy imitations, especially not with this type of technique. However, HE is dead. I know it. So unless he taught someone else or LEARNED from someone else, I do not think he is involved."

Kunnai looked around, carefully watching the surroundings before turning his eyes to the leader of the Konoha nins. "We must pass the swamps first. The first array is at the southern edge of the mountains, you can see them over the treetops already."

Lavan nodded. "Kunnai, take point. You're on pathfinder duty, make sure all the staked-out swamp paths are clear. Odari, you stick back with Maya, make sure she is safe. I have a feeling we will need a healer at some point or other. Kunnai is right, it will take about half a day of careful travel to reach the first seal array. Once we do, we are in a safe zone."

Odari saluted, fading into the back of the procession to stick with Maya as Lavan himself stepped beside Nanami. "Dainuma. The Great Swamp, also known as the Dead Swamp... This is why we are so hard to find. No one DARES to venture into this territory without either our notice or approval. I like to think that Yougankure is still hidden even to that Twilight organization."

Sayuri nodded along with Lavan's instructions, looking over a map (that she was holding upside-down), trying to look important.

"Hey," Kaoru pulled on Sayuri's sleeve to get her attention. Once she was looking at him, he flipped the map around and put it back in her hands without her noticing, afterward going on to say. "Lavan said he doesn't want me in Yougan."

"Oh? That's weird." Sayuri said, looking at the now-correct map. "It's fine!" She sped up until she was walking next to Lavan. "Lavan-kun! Just tell me when we're close to Yougan, and I'll stay behind with Kaoru where ever we are." She looked back down at the map. "Maybe we could even go ahead and scout out the missing village! Like, killing a bird with a stone, ya know!"

I can't see what you're imagining
-Country Road-

“I believe the term is ‘killing two birds with one stone,’” Galv spoke up. He was looking much less…stoic, then he had been at the ramen shop, after his talk with the X Tailed. He wasn’t sure what would happen to him once the X Tailed had absorbed the miniscule amounts of chakra from outside sources, but he had to hope it would be okay.

The ‘zombie’ hadn’t bothered him in the slightest. His older adoptive brother had transformed into scarier things.

“It’s probably not a good idea to split up though,” Galv continued, looking over to Kaoru. Like most of the others, he didn’t really trust him, but mostly because he did not know him, not because of what he claimed his ancestry to be. He figured it would be best to just wait and see about that.

“We have no idea what to expect, so it would be best to go in at full power…I understand that you don’t trust the newcomer, Lavan. I would be worried about bringing an unknown ninja into my village, but for right now, we don’t have that much of a choice at the moment. If you want, I can keep an eye on him…”

Galv then tapped his head, “I have a Justu that makes it nigh impossible for a Genjustu to work on me. Part of my electrical affinity.”

He didn’t elaborate past that. After all, he had been working on it for a long time. The only person who knew about it was his adoptive father…

"If only it was that easy, Galv. I do not know what this kid is capable of. I know I can ask one of the 7 to keep an eye on him. Heck, I know X himself would love the job, being our interrogation specialist. But it's not that simple. I do not know this kid. I do not know his capabilities. I do not know who his enemies or allies are.I am NOT going to allow him to be a beacon that shows where Yougankure is. We in Yougan have our security tight. VERY tight. I'll give X a talk-to when we arrive, maybe he will come up with something."

He grinned at Sayuri. "After all, I don't doubt that many of you want to see the village, and I know that I shouldn't be stopping us all up because of a single problem. I think it can easily be solved. HOWEVER..."

He turned to look at Kaoru. "I'll have you tailed, kid, if you can enter at all. Tailed by the best Yougan has to offer. Upon leaving, I will have Maya wipe out whatever memory you had of paths to or from Yougankure, along with any plan you cooked up, though I promise not to wipe anything else. Don't think that you can get away from it, kid. I DON'T trust you. And until you GAIN my trust, this is how Yougan will welcome you. Kapische, Kaoru-chan?"

(I know he may seem like an ass, but this is village-wide matters he is talking of. Lavan takes a lot of risks, but only when they involve only his or his team's safety. He does NOT compromise his village, for whatever the reason.)

"Relax," Musashi said, speaking up and walking over to Lavan. Of course, before that conversation earlier and recent developments, Musashi would be the person most vocal about distrusting Kaoru.

However, while he knew the kid was hiding something, he also knew Kaoru was somehow connected to Sayuri. He couldn't be sure if Sakura's claims were true -- but he knew there was some connection. Why else would...

He shook his head. "Kaoru and I can hang around, outside. We need to get caught up, anyway."

Musashi said that as he shot a glance at Kaoru. He was going to get some answers somehow!

Of course, while he hadn't commented on it, he wasn't going to let Kaoru go gallivanting off to the missing village with Sayuri. Even if he believed the kid might not have been a 'bad guy'...


"This can wait." Nanami spoke up; she was standing ahead of the group a bit, standing at the edge of the swamp. "There's at least two traps I can see in the swamp ahead... and probably more."

When Musashi made his suggestion, Sayuri looked very surprised. "That's a great idea! Why didn't I think of that?!"

She move back over to Kaoru. "Kaoru-kun! Maya would still have to erase your memory of the way to the village, but instead of going through all the trouble of being inside, you can just hang out with Musashi til we're done! Wouldn't that be fun?"

Kaoru nodded. "Yeah."

"Wonderful!" She jumped into the air, landing next to Musashi. "This way, I can go inside with Nanami. I know you'll take good care of Kaoru, 'Sashi!"
