Hidden Emo Loki: Loki ducked under the item that had shot at his back and grinned he didn't really care and as such he didn't think it was a big deal to him that his friend had attacked him. He turned his bird back to the normal size and before anyone could really pay attention he took off his robe and Hat and sealed them both in a scroll once again appearing as a normal individual as he did not have his sound headband on. "He'll join eventually so I don't really have to chase after him to get him to join up for anything." Loki was rather pleased with the way the meeting had gone and he continued his search for the missing Hudeni now disguised as a normal non ninja person. But before David had fully vanished he took a Kunai with a note tied to it and threw it past him landing clearly within view. If David chose to read the message it would say, "Don't tell anyone that i told you this but while i was searching around HIdden Magic i found clues that the Hidden Magic Sannin had been attacked by Fire style attacks near the border with the Federation. This would probably mean that either the Hidden Volcano or the Hidden Fire." And with that Loki himself headed off towards the Hidden Volcano to take a look. 5/??
Hidden Volcano Ryu: Ryu arrived in the Hidden Volcano village alongside Metalos and Komen he could only assume that they had come here to begin there search because of the fact that metalos was from here and knew the most about the area in question. He wasn't personally very sure about what they where doing here save the fact that they where looking for something that seemed out of the ordinary. He wasn't even sure what that meant but he knew that there probably wouldn't be anything good come of there search it would actually probably end in disaster... Ryu was not totally ready for that but he would do his best. 21/?

hidden volcano David grabbed the small scroll as he went to find his teammates whereever they were at. he quickly read it making sure not to have anyone notice that he had grabbed it from the ground as he destroyed his clone. he then would find himself at Hidden volcano not having missed very much time after all, seeing as how the rest of his goup was still sitting at the base of the volcano, David appeared running up to them tired as hell from his long run to volcano, which he expected they would be at since it was Metalos's home.
Metalos was looking through each of his teammates as he would through each of them a gas mask and smiled, "you guy's will need these!" he said happily as he noticed David running up to them panting when he stopped, "eh, David you ok?" he said as David shook his head up and down and Metalos gave David his new gas mask to use. "alright we should start our upward climb, this will take us a while to get to the top, and you will want to put your gas masks on around the area over there." he said pointing to a house on the side of the volcano. "now lets start our climb." and Metalos and David took off upward on the volcano.

Hidden Volcano. Komen looked at the gas mask and raised an eye brow. "Ummm... I think I'll take something a bit more fashionable...Guyver." He said as the Armor erupted from his skin and grasped onto it. He exhaled and a small burst of gasses erupted from the mouth piece of the armor. "I'll see you up at the top." Komen said as he started to scale the side of the volcano to the village much quicker than the others. He jumped from one ledge to the other with ease and was reaching the top quicker and quicker. Komen's cloak he was dawning helped cover his xterior so no one would think it was some kind of attack on the Hidden Volcano Village.

Ryu: Ryu grabbed the gas mask and placed it to his face. He merged with it slightly to the point where he wouldn't have to worry about it falling off or even being taken off forcefully by someone. Then he proceeded to follow Metalos David and Komen as they wandered up the Volcano. Ryu wasn't entirely sure about what he was looking for but he thought that he would know once he saw it. "What ever happened to the time when enemies where enemies and friends where friends i hate all this concealed s**t it really bothers me." he thought to himself as he began his trek. 22/?

David walked behind Metalos as he smiled putting the gas mask on his face he was happy about his group although it was a little hard to manage each of them. "ok lets get to the top, thats where you live at Metalos, i remember from a previous life." he said as he walked up the mountain and watched Komen use his armor as if it were nothing. David and Metalos just walked behind everyone else making sure notto waste their energy. Metalos was happy to see his volcanic village was going so well and soon put his gas mask on, along with David.

Hidden Mythology.
"So this is home?" Adonis mused to himself as he wandered around his home village as he was greeted as if he had always been a member... an important member of the village... maybe even the leader? A small child ran up to him carrying a mock wooden thunderbolt. "Mercury-dono!! You've returned! How was the senate? Were there really huge dragons guarding the gates!??" Adonis smiled ruffling the young boys hair. "Why of course they were, but you've got no worries kid, you'll be strong enough to take my place one day, just you watch." the kid ran away laughing and giggling at the comment lightning bolt held high triumphantly. "So I'm one of the famous Senators.. huh? Sweet..." Adonis continued to move through the city greeting and re familiarizing himself his surroundings, regaining memories of a forgotten life.

Hidden Volcano:
Komen waited at the entrance to the village for the others. He didn't want to waste his energy with the armor and powered down and quickly placed his mask on his face. "Hmmm..." Komen looked about at the shinobi that were all walking about with gas masks and such. "Hmmm...It would be a easy place to blend in. Can't see a face at all with all these gas masks on." Komen noted to himself a bit as he waited.

Ryu:
"Oh crap!" Ryu said suddenly, "I almost forgot that the Chuunin exams where coming soon and Metalos and I need to sign up.... I also need to get some training done soon...." Ryu looked at David expectantly, "Can i head back to Konoha for a little while to learn some more techniques?" Ryu was nearly hopping with eagerness, "I'll only be gone for maybe 2 or 3 hours ima fast learner.... please?" He was slightly begging he had a good deal of training that he needed to get done before he took part in the upcoming Chuunin exams and he needed to be ready for it. He had quite a bit of training to do because he didn't know any really specific Taijutsu moves all he knew how to do was open 5 of the 8 gates which was no were near enough. 23/?

Tamao Hidden Wind
Tamao looked at the door to the clock shop for a moment, then sighed and turned away. Her stomach, while certainly not very eloquent, was very persuasive. She started walking back towards the Inn, keeping an eye out for a place to stop and get something to eat as she did. It was pretty close to dark, the sun wasn't actually visible, although some of it's light was still making things somewhat easier to see. Tamao took her time walking, and soon found herself at a small food booth. Stepping through the slight overhanging curtains, Tamao looked around, (82 of ???)
seeing a few stools in front of a counter, behind of which stood the chef, busy wiping out a few empty glasses. The scent of something good caught her nose, and Tamao's mouth began to water. She sat down, and looked at the side of the booth's interior, where a small placard hung, listing off the booth's fare. Overall, it was nice, simple, homey food, and the price was pretty cheap, too. Tamao thought for a moment, and made her choice. It didn't take long for the chef to prepare everything, soon she had a small collection of dishes in front of her. A fragrant (83 of ???)
and savory soup, a small bowl of chopped vegetables and a plate of teriyaki chicken and rice. Tamao dug in with gusto, and found everything was made very well, the taste was fabulous. It wasn't long at all before she finished, setting down her now empty glass of juice. She still sat on the stool, letting the peaceful atmosphere help her relax. A long, very long, moment later, she finally got up, and payed for her meal, along with a tip, setting the money on the counter and thanking the chef. Then she stepped out of the booth, and started to make her way (84 of ???)
back to the Inn. Now that she'd had a good meal, she felt much better, and the walk felt like it'd taken no time at all. Soon, she was walking inside of the Inn, and going to her room. She unlocked and opened the door, slipped inside, then closed the door behind her. It wasn't all that late, but she was starting to feel tired, the sort of tired that came after eating a filling meal. She just wanted to go to sleep, so she began getting ready to do just that. Only moments later, she was about to slip into bed, when she remembered that she'd left Hoihoi-san in her (85 of ???)
pocket. She stood up, and pulled the small figurine from her dress's pocket. Going back to her desk, she picked up the small platform recharger, looking around before finding a suitable spot to keep it for the time being. Finally, she decided on a small spot on the floor next to the desk. Crouching down, she set the recharger down, then carefully took off Hoihoi-san's little booties, setting them on the carpeted floor right in front of the recharger. After that, she lined Hoihoi-san up with the recharger, and moved her into place, to begin charging up for her (86 of ???)
first use. Hopefully everything would go alright, if not, Tamao would feel that meant she'd done a poor job in the assembly stage. With that done, she felt she could finally go to sleep for the night, so that is precisely what she did. Clambering into bed, she got comfortable, closed her eyes, and promptly drifted off to sleep. A long moment later, nearly an hour, Hoihoi-san finally moved. First, her eyes lit up, just slightly, and then she stepped forward, off of the recharger platform, slipping her booties on by stepping into them, a pair of audible 'cheep!'s the end result. (87 of ???)
This was truly legendary footwear, the wonderfully unique Chrip-Chrip Shoes, which made cute squeaking noises with every footfall. Hoihoi-san moved forward, an entire repertoire of squeaks from her shoes as she did so. Within her small technological head, a whole sensor array was going, locking on to every small movement in the room, trying to find targets, insects that needed to be eliminated. For in truth, that was what Hoihoi-san was, the latest advancement in insect extermination devices. In a well-maintained room like this, there would likely not be (88 of ???)
very many insects at all, but there would still likely be some, stubborn and hardy enough to survive any attempts to get rid of them. Any attempts up until now, that is. Hoihoi-san came to a stop in midstride, her small body instantly turning, with weaponry at the fore, as she locked on to a target. A simple housefly. A half-second later, her firearm burst into life, surprisingly loud for such a small device, shooting tiny yet very dangerous bullets at the hapless insect. The small bullets struck true, taking the fly out. It fell to the floor, from where it'd been perched on (89 of ???)
the wall. Hoihoi-san moved her arm back down to her side, and resumed her patrol. Before stopping for the night, she'd managed to find and eliminate another eight insects. Three of them were more houseflies, one was actually a spider, and so on. She stopped for recharging three times, each time returning to the platform, slipping out of her booties, and stepping up onto the platform. Then, a moment later, she'd return to her task. Despite the noise from her firearm, Tamao didn't even wake up once. All of the dead insects had been placed in a pile on her desk, to show Hoihoi-san's achievements. (90 of ???)

Metalos looked at Ryu as his eyes widened, "holy crap i almost forgot about those, sensei do you care if we go off to train and then go to the exams?" he asked David a bit worried as he noticed David wasn't paying to much attention to him David then turned around and smiled at them, "fine, go ahead and leave i think Komen and i can handle most of this stuff by ourselves. so go on ahead, we may stop in to see what has happened in the exams." David said as a bit of a strange expression grew over David's face it seemed kind of serious but yet worried. "Komen, i've heard that there may be a person in the exams that has a Demon we may want to see how well our two gennin do after a while."

Komen shrugged as he heard his captains wishes. "No problem. I'm sure they will do fine. But Hopefully they'll live. Dying for the sake of a title is pretty stupid. Well...even though we ourselves did the same exact thing." He said with a slight laugh and scratchto the back of his head. "Any ways...what will we do? Simply watch the exams as they happen?" He asked him as he stretched his arms a bit.

Ryu:
"Thank you sensei!" Ryu said exictedly as he turned around and r an full pelt down the mountain. Near the bottom he took off the gas mask and placed it in his equipment bag as it might come in useful later on. Ryu was fast and the down hill slope onl;y made him faster. As he passed little clusters of hosues and people he was little more then a blur all the while he was headed towards the docks. The Exams where very very close so he would have to hurry if he was going to finish his training before he was out of time, "Ok... the chuunin exams are around the corner... ive gotta pass." He thought to himself as he jumepd on the nearest boat to the Hidden Leaf Village.

Tamao Hidden Wind
Morning rolled around, and Tamao did the same. Which meant she rolled right out of bed, crashing onto the floor harshly. A slightly muffled cry of pain indicated she'd fully woken up. Muffled because she was still tangled up in her blanket, she must have been tossing and turning through the night. Finally, she extricated herself from her cloth prison, and she got to her feet. Her back was aching from that fall, but it didn't feel like she'd did any permanent damage. Just take it easy for the day, try to sit down a lot, she should be fine. She stretched gingerly, and (91 of ???)
stepped into the washroom to clean up, get ready for another day. She didn't have anything specific planned for the day, she'd just take it easy, maybe spend some time finding a new outfit for Hoihoi-san. Wait, that was right! How had Hoihoi-san done on her first mission? Tamao, her toothbrush still in her mouth, walked back into the main part of her room, clad in a towel, and glanced down by the desk to see how Hoihoi-san was doing. She looked alright, everything seemed to be the same as before. Wait a minute, she was moving! Tamao stepped closer, (92 of ???)
crouching down to get a closer look at Hoihoi-san, to see just what in the world she was up to. She had an arm out in front of her, waving it back and forth rather energetically, like she was trying to draw Tamao's attention to it. The arm itself looked fine, there weren't any wounds on her bare skin, and her sleeve and glove had no tears or anything. That just left the firearm accessory. It looked the same as before, from what she remembered. But Hoihoi-san seemed intent on making sure Tamao did something about it. What was something that only (93 of ???)
Tamao could do about her firearm, that had to be taken care of right away? Then it hit her. Figuratively, not literally, for which she was rather glad. Another ammunition cartridge, she must have used the one the firearm had inside of it all up. But that would mean... Tamao had been taking the firearm from Hoihoi-san's hand when that concept hit her. If Hoihoi-san had already fired bullets, a lot of bullets, that meant there'd been insects, and a fair number of them. But if that was the case, then where were they? Just then, she glanced down, and (94 of ???)
saw Hoihoi-san still gesticulating, this time she was pointing up at the desk. Getting a bad feeling, Tamao stood up and looked at the desk. A long moment later, a panicked shout woke up several of the Inn's still-sleeping patrons, who grumbled annoyedly, before turning over and trying to go back to sleep. Tamao was scooted back against the wall farthest from her desk, her eyes wide in shock and surprise, at the small mound of dead insects. She wasn't actually scared of bugs, but really, if something like this happened, wouldn't anyone be caught by surprise? (95 of ???)

Tamao Hidden Wind
It took Tamao a moment to regain her composure after seeing the heaped up corpses of Hoihoi-san's work. Still not particularly thrilled with the bugs, she nonetheless turned and looked down at Hoihoi-san, telling her she did a good job. Hoihoi-san did a cute little pose and gesture, which seemed to express her thanks for the compliment. Likely just a programmed response, but it was nonetheless pretty cute. Tamao grinned, then returned to the problem at hand. What was she supposed to do with all those dead insects? She couldn't just leave them there, (96 of ???)
could she? No way! Even if it was hygienic, which it most certainly wasn't, she had no desire to do anything of the sort. Looking around, her eyes landed on the trash can. Picking it up, she pulled out a sheet of paper and used it to brush the bugs into the can. Then she set the can down, tossed the sheet of paper back into it, as well as a bit more garbage, to try and hide the sight of the dead insects. Straightening up, she looked around. So there'd been that many insects in this room, at the least. Not a very pleasant thought. She decided she'd go outside and (97 of ???)
get some fresh air. She decided to leave Hoihoi-san where she was, in case she needed more recharging or anything like that. As well, she left herself a note to remind herself to change Hoihoi-san's ammunition cartridge for her firearm. After all, that was one of the tasks she'd been given for maintaining Hoihoi-san during this testing phase. She'd do her duty, but what was more, she'd do it because she wanted to. She didn't harbor the various insects any ill will, she just liked them better when they were farther away from her than in the same room. (98 of ???)
And if Hoihoi-san was capable of helping with something like that, well then, Tamao would do what she could to ensure Hoihoi-san was actually able to do her thing. That way, she did what she was supposed to, Hoihoi-san was able to perform her main function, and everyone got what they wanted. It was a win-win situation. Nodding to herself, Tamao stepped out of her room, closing and locking the door behind her. Looking outside through the hallway's window, she realized it was actually later than she thought. With taking care of the bugs, she'd totally lost (99 of ???)
track of the time. Luckily she didn't have any firm plans for the day that she could remember. But even so, losing track of time like that was a bit of a nuisance. Especially since she was getting kind of hungry, and she'd already missed breakfast. She left the Inn, and decided to take a nice leisurely stroll through town, as she tried to decide where she wanted to stop and have a late breakfast. Or to be more specific, a late brunch. If she ate this late, she probably wouldn't be hungry for lunch, so she might as well combine the two into a single meal. She enjoyed (100 of ???)
walking at a slower pace than most of the other people, it was kind of relaxing. Just taking in the ambience of the village, the sounds of people talking, of children playing, of a dog barking, it felt kind of familiar. The weather was nice, not too hot or too cold, no rain expected for at least the next few days. Tamao let her mind wander a bit as she walked, just letting herself be moved along by the general direction of the crowd. She heard some rumors and gossip as she did, but didn't pay too much attention to any of it. There was going to be another Chunin Exam (101 of ???)
shortly. Her complacent expression faded somewhat at that, she didn't particularly care for what had happened at her own Chunin Exam, it hadn't been very fun at all. She'd had to make some tough decisions, and in the end, she hadn't been able to do it. That fact still bothered her a little, even to this day. She tried not to dwell on it anymore, but it still rose up from the shadows of her mind, to strike at her tranquility when she was least expecting it. Shaking her head, she tried to rid herself of those gloomy thoughts, and turned to look up at the sky. The sun was (102 of ???)
just beginning to hide behind some fat, puffy clouds, and she could seemingly see for miles into that endless blue. It was virtually impossible to keep a bad mood while looking at such scenery, and her grin returned. Her nose perked up as she smelled something yummy, and her stomach made her choice for her, telling her she'd done quite enough walking, now was the time for eating. Trying to follow her nose, she almost took a wrong turn but eventually found herself back at the same place she'd eaten at the night before. Shrugging a little at the coincidence, (103 of ???)
she didn't fight it. Instead, she just entered and tried to decide what to order as she found a place to sit. Unlike last time, she wasn't the only patron there this time, but the others all seemed intent on their meals, so she chose the stool farthest from the other two, and sat down. Since it'd only been the night before, the cook recognized her easily enough, and welcomed her warmly. She smiled and greeted them in return, saying how everything smelled so good she hadn't been able to keep herself away. The cook grinned, repeat customers were ones he liked (104 of ???)
very, very much. He waited genially as Tamao debated between several choices of what to order, and once she finally decided, he got to work. It wasn't a long wait at all, soon her food was ready. Tamao breathed deeply, enjoying the scent almost as much as she expected she'd enjoy the actual meal. It was said that appetite was fueled by scents, this never seemed more true than this very moment. Tamao nodded her thanks to the cook, and offered a quick prayer of thanks, then dug in. As she'd expected, everything was perfect. As she ate, she (105 of ???)
glanced up at the cook, taking a moment to measure the man up. He seemed somewhat old, yet very energetic. He had a good, solid build, with a slightly darker skin tone, and his hair was grey, and tied back in a small ponytail. He wore an olive green t-shirt and baggy cargo khaki shorts, looking the perfect role as a casual but competent older man. There was something in the nature of his movements that hinted at a more serious past, but Tamao wasn't about to ask something so personal, especially so soon after barely even meeting the man. She didn't even (106 of ???)
know his name yet! For that matter, he didn't know hers, at least she didn't think so. She let the matter drop, and returned to her meal. Once she finished eating, she got up, payed her bill, and left, saying she'd be sure to come again. Back onto the somewhat busy street, Tamao resumed her meandering, not sure exactly what she should do for the day. She'd already been neglecting her training for a while, she really should force herself to at least attempt to stay in shape. Just being lazy every day was almost certainly not what being a Chunin was all (107 of ???)
about. No, she had duties, responsibilities. Maybe not a lot of them, but she still had them nonetheless, and she had to do what she could to make sure she'd be able to handle them when the moment came. Just not now. With everything that had happened, she just wanted to take another day or two off, just rest up, make some decisions. Then she'd get back into a steady schedule, and start her training once again. She was sure of it. Just one or two days wouldn't let her slip that far into incompetence, would it? She'd be able to recover from this break without too much trouble, right? (108 of ???)

David smiled as he looked at Komen. "we will be watching the exams partway through at least. i want to see anyone who may die in the exams, and whom shall cause most of it." he said as he watched Metalos and Ryu run down the mountain and off to train. David was glad to see that they were in a rush to become chunnin. "Komen, the matter of dieing for a rank is an annoyance at the least. i'd know i've died a few times trying to just get a rank. luckily for me i eventually made my way to jounin. i'd say be careful when it comes time for the jounin exams as those two may join you in it and you could end up fighting any of them." David said as he grew a bit more serious, "now i have a question, once you become a jounin, would you care to take care of these two idiots for a while? i may go to train on my own after a while so, you know, you can train them as much as you'd please, all i'd have to say is don't kill them." David said jokingly at the end. "all i'm saying is eventually i may go on a vacation so you may have to take controll for a bit, then i'll come back to help out again. what do you think?" he said nicely.
