Rika appeared at the door after a few moments, knocking. There wasn't an answer, which worried her. But the village seemed normal, so she opened the door quietly and entered. "Lord Mizukage?" It was dark in the office, almost as if the Mizukage wasn't in.

Haruka appeared from behind in the shadows as she skulked over Rikas shoulder,"What are you doing in here? Wheres my son I have a scroll for him, and I do have it dark in here because I like it."

Rika nearly jumped out of her skin, the Sannin's presence was completely masked until that point. "L-Lady Haruka, he should be on his way. I was just coming to give my mission report, we had quite a few complications but we succeeded." Rika steadied her breath and awaited the Sannin's next set of actions.

Haruka came in and glided around behind the desk pulling out a scroll,"You can explain to the new Mizukage when he gets here." At that moment Ikumen entered,"What do you mean new Mizukage... wheres Qastor- Oji-sama?" Haruka pulled out the chair and walked Ikumen to it,"He died last night dear, he wrote out all the instructions, he knew it was coming and so he prepared you." She sat him down in the chair as a look of shock filled Ikumens eyes with her blunt address,"Youre the new Mizukage now." With that Haruka left whistling slightly, was it her plan all along that many years ago for Ikumen to find out this way? Maybe so, but no one was alive of that generation now, with Qastor dead only Haruka remained as the fountain of knowledge past. Ikumen sat at the desk, he was unable to speak at all, he felt the scroll within his grasp, but could not open it.

Rika was thunderstruck, Lord Qastor died the previous night? She watched Lady Haruka exit the office, seemingly without a care, and she turned her gaze to Ikumen. He looked just as stunned as she was, how could such a powerful ninja like him just die so...easily? She was certain that the memorial services would be in a few days, Lord Yukikage was almost guaranteed to attend. She stepped up to Ikumen and gave the boy a hug, whispering quietly. "Ikumen...Lord Mizukage, I'm here if you need me." She wasn't even sure if the boy heard her, so she moved away and sat against the wall, drifting back off to sleep.

Listening from the corner room, the Prince made no emotions of disbelief or relief. It wasn't a surprise of who be the new Mizukage. The Prince folded his arms and stayed quiet.
'Old man... May good wishes follow you into the afterlife.'

Ichiro Mikami  The team arrived at the Mizukage’s office. Ichi stood the farthest one behind since he knew that he really had nothing to do inside that place. As Rika and Ikumon entered the room, Ichi stayed outside and over heard some of the conversations of the Sannin Haruka declaring that the Mizukage is dead and Ikumon will replace him as the new kage. The Mizukage died? Ichi asked himself feeling sorrow as his eyes tear up a little.

Ikumen was pulled into the older females embrace shortly, he felt tears in his eyes, but for some reason they were fewer now. He wasnt sure how to react, he gave a quick hug in return before the two parted. He wiped his eyes slowly as he sat down and nodded slowly more in acknowledgement of Rika. "Well then, good job on our mission... I guess its time I read, what... what the late Mizukage wanted." His voice was shaky as he looked at the scroll and unfurled it, he read it to himself. After a few minutes, he took the scroll and pushed it into the desk,"Qastor-sama... Congratulates us on our first successful mission as a squad. He named me Miukage.... and he wanted Rika-chan promoted... to Jounin..." Ikumen looked up at them and forced a smile,"Is... there anything else I can do for either of... you?"

The Prince walked up to the new Mizukage and kneed before him.
"I'm sorry for your lost... We now serve you my Lord."
The Prince stood back up before vanishing in a flash.

 ▷ ANBU Captian - Genjutsu~ Harmonious Illusion - Moon Village - Sage - Cats Summoner ◀  Miirror got to his feet and bowed once more to Qastor. To believe the man he didn't respect those many months ago could bring forth so much respect and honor from the child in so little time! The man truly did love the village and the people within it. Miirror was could never be prouder to hold the title of the Mist on his headband under the reign of Qastor than he did that moment. Hearing Qastor telling him that he needed to train, it almost was as if he had seen Miirror training in Takigakure that day and working on one of his Clan's most powerful illusions. He still had more to go through in order to get it but with Qastor pushing him to reach heights that possibly Miirror didn't even see in himself, he knew he had to make the man proud." Hai. I will become the strongest Shinobi in the Mist under you Mizu-dono. You can bet on that!" Miirror said as he gave one more bow before moving to exit his room, glad for his promotion but more so glad that Qastor saw more hidden potential in his body that he has yet to unlock. It would be nothing short of a dishonor than to let him down now.
Miirror of course, wouldn't know of the passing of the very man he left only a few hours ago until a fellow ANBU caught up to Miirror just as he was about to head to the Dojo. Nothing, rather could prepare him for that news even though he knew Qastor's time was limited after the battle but... he didn't believe it was that severe! But as Miirror thought past his sorrow things started to make sense. The promotions, the way he exhibited himself to Kirin and the people of Mist, and how he told him that he must become stronger... It was indeed as if he was going somewhere and wanted to be on good terms with everyone and ensure the village was in good hands before departing; little did Miirror think that it would be a departure he wouldn't come back from. So Tenichi indeed did take Qastor with him after all... Miiror thought to himself clenching his fist and shaking his head, No more sacrifices shall be made. And though I am far from blood of his family, I shall make sure his grandson is in safe care. Miirror thought to himself as he dismissed the ANBU and looked up to the Mizukage tower. "You shall be missed, but your legacy shall continue." Miirror said softly, giving one last bow to the tower and heading towards the waterfall of the Mist. If he was going to train, then Miirror was going to train in the spot Qastor had first promoted him. Call it a weak attempt to be with the deceased but at least it will comfort the youthful Captain in his training to ensure that he proved Qastor's speculations of him be confirmed, as well as, be the sure protector of the village he had so much pride for. [Exit to Waterfall]

Ichiro Mikami Ichi wiped his tear as walked inside the room to listen to Ikumon reading the scroll that the late Mizukage Quastor left. Ichi just remained quiet still feeling sorrowful after hearing the last words of the late leader of his village. He wanted to congratulate both Ikumon and Rika for being promoted but he knew that this isn’t really the best time for it. Silently, Ichi just stepped back heading outside givng Ikumon sometime alone to sort out everything that just happened. Exit: Village Apartments

Rika's unconscious form disappeared in a puff of smoke, her body being brought to the summoning temple.
((Exit to Grand Summoning Temple for second attempt at learning a summon))
About an hour later, Rika returned in a burst of smoke. Ikumen looked to be asleep, so she exited the office.

Flipping through the pages of genjutsu textbook, the Prince finally reached his office and knocked on his door.
"My Lord, Are you here?"
Walking into the office the Prince looked around at the office and began to think about the cleaning assignment from the past Mizukage. He sits in one of the chairs and begins to mediate deepl while waiting for the Mizukage to return.
