Welcome to Gaia! ::

"WAIT FOR MEEEE!" A loud yell came from a dust cloud in the distance. A dust cloud that was rapidly coming closer and closer. A small figure led the dust cloud, and had presumably been the cause of the yell. As the figure grew closer, she could tell that she hadn't been left. The familiar look of Mia-sama made her smile. And Willo-Chan!

Her teammate! Her leader! It was joyous to her to see them again! Motoko slowed down slightly, the dust cloud losing it's giant shape, slowly evaporating into the wind, until she came up to Mia-Sama at a slight trot. "Uchiha, Motoko. Reporting for duty, Mia-Sama."

"Well, that shouldn't be too bad. I mean, we beat her before. Right, Mia-sensei?" Willo asked as she fiddled with her new protector.

"That's correct Kyo." Willo nodded. "I don't know her exact position in your family tree, but Miyoko is an Uchiha like the two of you. Motoko, Mia, and I have faced her in battle before, and emerged victorious. However, that time we had a few more combat-oriented shinobi on our side."

Mia nodded her head, "She was born into the Uchiha clan, but I'd consider her as much a part of your family as the -other- murderer." She took a long drink from her cup, seemingly to calm herself...at the time you may even notice that she has a new shiny ring on her finger.

"There's rumors of some kind of political upheaval going on around the Country of Rain. The refugees that have arrived here have stated that a full-blown civil war may be going on there now and there have been rumors of someone with the Sharingan being a part of skirmishes. That could mean either Itachi or Miyoko, but they're both with the same organization which means more than likely if we find one we find the other. So we've gotten permission, as the Medical Corps, to travel to the Country of Rain to provide medical relief to the people on the outskirts of the Hidden Rain village. But /really/ we will be there to try and find Miyoko, understand?"

Motoko took some time to soak in all the information that had Mia had said. She also noticed the ring on Mia's finger. She wondered..Who..?

She shook her head slightly, as it wasn't terribly important. Miyoko and Itachi. It would be pretty hard for her team to handle one of the Akatsuki, especially Itachi. Much Less both of them. It seemed, in her head, that the Hidden Leaf was sending an underpowered team to attack a very high-ranking, Dangerous Shinobi. She took another drink of her tea.

Motoko smiled at Kyo. He seemed very..shy. She was that way too, though. She was just..especially comfortable around Willo and Mia. "Don't worry Kyo. We've done this once before, and you seem competent! We'll do awesome!"

Kyo tilted his head back and groan loudly. While continuing to do so he shuffled down the walkway, possibly going home to prepare. More than likely he was really only going to shut down most of his machines and grab some tools to tinker with along the way.

Mia comes walking up to the North Gate a few minutes behid the rest of the group. She looks around and says, "Well it seems Motoko is wanting to the eternally tardy one in the group." Then laughs softly, looking the pair over she says, "Well us it should take us about 2 days to get to the border then another 8 hours to get to the refugee camp. But it'll be a dangerous 8 hours, there's rumors of a lot of fighting around that section of the Country."


"Then it is most fortunate that you lovely ladies will not be alone!" Appearing in a *POOF* of smoke is a man in his 30s with a large grin and long black hair pulled back into a ponytail. He wears a standard Jounin uniform and is currently in a cheesy pose....but so are the other three teenage boys behind him. "TEAM DAISUKE!" They all say in unison.

"Aw man!" Willo slapped her palm to her forehead and groaned. "Why do these incompetent guys have to be our accompaniment? Why can't we just have Hisaki and Tadamasa again? Or Hitori-san's team?"
