Zdura had been walking for about an hour, only really able to continue along the path after it began to get harsher by merit of having lived in the mountains of Rice country for so many years. He was beginning to wonder if perhaps he was on the wrong path, when a man materialized in front of him, wearing the customary garb of an ANBU. And with his weapon drawn too, a nice touch. But, he supposed he was obviously dressed as a ninja, with no village markings, and that was cause for alarm for any security force.

Stopping about three feet before he would have collided with the other man, Zdura held his hands up in front of him, palms forward in a hopefully calming motion. "I'm not an enemy, so you can put your weapons away." he spoke as soothingly as he could. "I'm looking for Kirigakure, if you could point me in the right direction?"

As he waited for the apparent ANBU, or perhaps Oinin, as they were a famous part of Kiri's forces, to decide whether or not he was a threat, Zdura did a subtle scan of the ANBU himself. Yasashii hadn't had any encounters with Kiri ninja as he recalled, so Zdura was unsure if they would respond in the same way as the ninja of other villages, or if this ANBU might not accept his statement, and deem him a threat anyways. Well, he could probably handle him. He was undoubtedly skilled, to even wear that mask, but not many held up to his own level. But then, he was also untested. Hopefully it wouldn't come to that though.

Zdura frowned, frustrated as the man before him only seemed to become more hostile. His fingers twitched in agitation, and his eyes visibly grew sharper, watching the other man's every twitch. Despite his wishes, this had just become a potential hostile encounter. "My business is with the Mizukage and him alone." he spoke sharply. "If you do not trust me, you are free to escort me with as many guards as you like. But know this. If I had hostile intentions, you would not still be alive." He knew it was the wrong thing to say, but he was playing a different role than his usual today. This was not the place for his amiable civilian facade. To buckle his will to a member of the ANBU would not give the impression he wanted for his encounter with the kage. So, he said what he said, and with full conviction to where even the most well trained of soldiers would see that it was the truth. It was not an underestimation of the other's abilities, but a clear estimation of his own.

"Now, will you take me to the village, or do I keep walking? I'm sure I can find it eventually."

Zdura calmed instantly as the other man apparently decided he was not a threat after all. The fact that the decision came only after his, honestly somewhat cliche, attempt to present himself as a threat was a bit, well, embarrassing would be the first word to come to mind. But, he took the slip and looked it over. Nodding as he found it much the same as the one his counterpart had filled out earlier the same day in Sunagakure, he quickly scribbled down the information requested, smirking slightly as he crossed the weapons section the man had mentioned. Finishing the paper off, he handed it back to the shinobi with a smile just barely visible through his mask.

Name: Zdura
Village: None
Equipment: None
Rank: Jounin
Reason for coming: To meet with the Mizukage

As the man retreated, making what Zdura assumed to be his own version of the cliche intimidation, Zdura looked down the path revealed behind him, nodding in slight admiration at the trick with the air ball. He would have to remember that, as it gave him an idea that he really should have thought of years ago. But, the path would obviously not hold forever, so he began walking. Soon enough he assumed if he followed the revealed path, he should find the actual village proper.

Masaki listened and took off after the girl at full speed, doing his best to keep up. He remembered his training, and how hard Luo had pushed him. This was nothing compared to that, and Masaki let an annoyed groan escape his voice, he stopped briefly to load his bag with rocks and took off once more at 120% to catch up to the group.

Nagisa followed the map as far as it took her, and before long was standing deep in the mist. She could barely see ten feet in the mist, but she knew what do do from here. Kumogakure would never threaten an allied village by marking it on any map, but it would bring her close enough that she could get other help. She called out into the mist. "I am Nagisa Aburame, Jounin of Kumogakure. I wish to meet with the Mizukage of Kirigakure." She revealed just enough that the Kiri forces in the area would probably meet with her. Announcing her full motives could bring trouble from any non-Kiri shinobi so she kept her mouth shut on that matter.

"Wandering in the mist isn't safe," Mikyo said, his voice slightly muffled by his mask. He seemed to appear from nothing as he stepped out in front of her. "Aburame Nagisa, Kiri is appreciative of your cooperation. Simply claim your weapons on this sheet, your reason for visiting, and how long you'll be here." Handing her the note, he folded his arms and waited patiently, the odd taial he possessed stirring about behind him.
