Welcome to Gaia! ::

Stopping again for a long rest in the middle of nowhere of the dark wood before the Hidden Village of Darkness. Having ran for two days non-stop, Yurei crashed himself into a deep chasm of a trunk bed. Letting out a great sigh, he actually call it his own bed as he panted slightly. Finally getting his breathing back to normal, he took a long drink from his bottle and quickly emptying it. "Hana refill our water supply and water for dinner. I'll set the fire and hunt us something to eat for supper. I won't be long." sighed Yurei as he prop himself up and walked deeper into the wood, tossing his water bottle to her as he went out of sight.

Walking on a trail that lead to their territory, sakuya and rei saw the messenger eagle land in front of them. Unwrapping the message from the eagle and setting it free, rei read the message."What does it say rei?" said Sakuya as she gazed back at rei.
"It's a message from the Sun, " said Rei, "they want me to meet them in their territory.
"Why"
"Apparently they have imformation on a new mysterious organization. and there's a not from the Hoshikage, she says I have to go alone... you have have to travel back and report our discovery directly to her. "
"Isn't that dangerous, traveling to another ninja village alone." said sakuya sounding concerned
"it's our ally village, I'll be fine; I didn't become an anbu by luck. I'll see you later." he said as he ran in an adjacent trail to there's, toward the village of the Sun while Sakuya continued to run to the Village hidden in the Stars.

Kinzoku started walking around Konoha "Well THAT was exciting" he thought to himself

Kinzoku's wolf like hearing having caught what the hokage and jiraiya had talked about, he got excited to no end "An 'S' rank?! oh man! Pervy sage HAS to let me get in on this!!" he thought as he ran to where he had a feeling Jiraiya would be "If anything he'll need Kyuubii's help and Naruto's off training for his mission helping that old geezer Tazuna with his squad" he added, more vocally this time

Yurei coming back to camp with a dead deer that he hunted in the forest, having already cut it him out and getting the fore started, Yurei began to start the fire and cook the slabs to meat. Grabbing seasonings he had found in the forest began to dazzle them slight to give the meat some flavor. "Hmmm...she should of been back with that water by now....let's see where she wondered off to..." thought Yurei as he opened his bag and pulled out a rolled up scroll. Unrolling it and showing a drawn out map of the forest around him. Seeing the moving dots before him he could see that Hana was nearby the stream like it indicated. "Hmmm... I wonder where Zeru is in this?" thought Yurei as he pulled out a brush and a sharp kunai. Cutting into the skin of his arm and letting the blood slowly swim down his arm and into a black bottle. Having waited a while after filling a couple bottles, Yurei sealed the cut and placed the kunai at his side.
Dipping the brush slightly in the black bottle he drew a unknown signet onto the paper, the surroundings that were once on the paper now changed and showing in the area to where the Fire Country is and the mysterious Sun Village. Seeing three moving dots, he suspected the one heading in the direction of where the Sun Village should be was Zeru. "Hmmm...so he's going back....and just as Madara said he would, should of suspected as much." thought Yurei as he lied a painted slash on the paper erasing the continents on the parchment before him as he rolled it up and sealed it as he packed it away safely into his bag and then went back cooking the juicy deer meat.

Hana began to pant slightly as she glanced at him. "I'm going to take a bath later when I'm not so tired. Right now just getting water was a chore for me." She said as she closed her eyes and began to pet Kina once more as the little fox began to fall asleep on her lap.

Zeru walked past the gates to the Sun village. "Master Zeru, I see you have finally returned." said a voice from the shadows, "Durano, you still need work on your stealth. What have they been teaching the ANBU since I left." said Zeru as a man emerged from an ally. "Did you send word to all the villages, like I asked?" asked Zeru, "Yes, except the wretched Leaf," sneered Durano, "Then it is a good thing that I asked one of the Sannin to come, personally." said Zeru as he walked towards the Kage's manor. "Have my personal squad escort the guests, since they take my order's unquestioned ....Next time, when I say send word to all the villages, do it or I'll have you tried for treason, understood." said Zeru as he stared at Durano, a cold shiver pierced Durano's soul, for he knew that traitors were tortured more than any other class of criminal.
