 She untied the bag on San's back, plopping it down in front of Nemutai, before plucking the paper from his head and placing it onto his desk. "I brought you food, sir; isn't that what you're supposed to do with a mentor? And I also came to check on the status of my mission-I know I still have a few days and I'd like to rest a little bit before I go," she replied, grinning. San plopped down in front of the desk, the massive dog staring over the desk at Nemutai as he shifted sleepily. "I've been missing actually being in my own home for once..." Kiko said quietly, before pouring Nemutai some tea.Tsukiko Jounin Theme

Nemutai continued to eat as Kiko spoke. "Well I gave you one week to train before you had to leave; and its only been two days; so you still have 5 more days before your mission starts" He said before taking a drink of the tea that Kiko had poured. He was in no rush; the Ninja form the Sand Village shouldn't be showing up for a few more days; so its not like they where going to bust in through the door (Darn teleportation) "So i guess you can take a bit of a rest; regain your strength and get your chakra back before continuing on with you mission" The Raikage looking down at the dog was that looking at him "......."

San panted a bit, and grinned at Nemutai, before laying down on the carpet. The office was already cramped enough without San being in there, now it just seemed...ultra-cramped. Kiko nodded in acquisition to Nemutai's words, and gave a hefty sigh. "Sleeping sounds nice right about now...If you need me, you know where to find me, Nemutai-sensei-kage." With that, Kiko gave a polite bow, and San shuffled to her feet, barricading the doorway for a few moments as the two partners headed home for some R & R. They skipped through the edge of town, making their way home to the tiny house at the far end of the mountain, with plenty of traps laid for whoever or whatever should dare enter their domain.

"Within every lie, there is truth
Within every illusion, there is reality"  Akeru merely rolled her eyes when she heard Ryumon asking Ichi what it was like to have a girlfriend. Though when Ichi gave his description of it, it gave Akeru an idea. If the worst would come to pass and the demon would take over Ichi again, they would need someone who could reach him. No matter how much she disliked the idea of these relationships she couldn't ignore the fact that Ichi and Kiko cared deeply about eachother, so there probably was nobody in a better position than her to do something in a worst case scenario. I suppose I should ask the Raikage if he would let Tsukiko assist us. *sigh* I'd prefer not to have them getting all lovey dovey around me, but I'd prefer not getting stepped on by a giant sand demon even more...It was something to think about at least. For now, it was more important to just speak to the Raikage. They were right in front of his office so Akeru knocked on the door. "Hello, Raikage-sama? We're the ninja from Suna, we're sorry if we took longer than expected."((Last Location: Housing/Shopping District Next Location: - )

Following Akeru into the Raikage's office Ichi didn't bother saying anything to the Kage. After all he had pretty much no information other then he was told to come to Cloud to master Shukaku and that wasn't enough for him to start a conversation with; Ichi knew better then that; he would instead let one of the ninja in charge of the mission handle the talking; after all he was more the 'cargo' then one of the Shinobi on the mission. As they walked into the office Ichi looked from Akeru to the Raikage as they spoke.
As the Sand Ninja walked in the Raikage looked more then a bit shocked. "Took longer?...." He asked in mid bite of a meal that he was currently eating. Before wiping his mouth with the back of his hand. "Your a few days early; I wasn't expecting you here for at least 2 or 3 more days" After all Nemutai hadn't planned on the Kazekage moving them so close to the village; that took a good deal of work out of the mission; and what point was there in giving escorts if you took away the whole from point A to point B, leaving nowhere where they needed protecting. "Anyways..." He said shrugging slightly. "From what I have heard of the Kazekage you want help in your host mastering his demon?" The Kage asked looking at the ground of Sand ninja.

 RyoThe armor-clad jonin raised his hand up to his mouth in a fist and let out a small cough as to announce his presence and that he was about to speak. "This is correct. Kazekage Woshi gave us instructions to come here, he said the Cloud Village would supply a guide as well as someone that will help Ichite-ru with what he has to do. Is there someone in Cloud that can do this?" He spoke to the similarly aged Raikage with about as much respect as he showed the kazekage, which amounted to enough to shoot the moon.

As the Jounin spoke theRaikage gave a slight nod. "Yeah I already informed your guide where you are going to be going, as a matter Of fact he should be getting here rather soon. As for someone to help the host do what it was that he needs to do; what did you have in mind?" He asked looking at the Jounin; he had thought that the Sand Village would have sent everyone that they would have needed other then an escort. He had an Idea about who he could send but he wanted to make sure what it was that THEY had in mind.

"Within every lie, there is truth
Within every illusion, there is reality" Akeru was still new to being a jonin so she didn't exactly feel like one yet. Especially in situations like this; she had ideas that she thought should be voiced but she still felt like a child, as if she should just hold her tongue and let the adults speak. As a genin she would never stop talking and was very disrespectful, but now she supposed she was Ryo's equal in rank at least. As a jonin she was a leader and she couldn't be afraid to voice her opinion. Besides, Akeru being afraid to voice her opinion didn't sound like Akeru at all. She would just attempt to be more respectful than her younger self. "...Rakage-sama...first I'd like to...umm...thank you for aiding us. As for someone to help, if you don't have someone special prepared, I have a suggestion. One of the jonin of your village, Tsukiko Inazuka has a special bond with Ichi...I believe that if Ichi begns to lose himself, she would stand the best chance of getting through to him. So, Ryo, if you agree, I'd like to request her assistance."Akeru shifted her eyes from the Raikage to Ryo, trying to subtly gauge their reactions. Part of her was expecting them to think it was a briliant idea, though she was mostly expecting them both to wave her off or tell her to shut up. ((Last Location: Raikage's Office Next Location: - )

Ryo"Actually Akeru, Tsukiko could prove to be more problematic, I don't doubt Ichite-ru's ability to focus on his training, but love could hinder him slightly. What I was meaning was someone who has at least a small bit of knowledge when it comes to this 'Waterfall of Truth,' someone who can vocally tell him the steps of succeeding, as that is our main goal in this mission." The superior acting jonin spoke, Akeru may have been a jonin, however, Ryo was leading the team and saw that insuring a successful mission would benefit everyone more. Still though, he acknowledged her remarks and treated them as much respect as she was showing them, which was more than what he would pay most other people's comments and closing the door behind the group for privacy due to the importance of the meeting.

☽Madaraki Shiso☾ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Mood: No longer tired... Just bored...
Status: Waiting outside Nemutai's office...
Location: The Raikage's Office.
Theme: Vigrid Station Home "Fly me to the moon, and let me play amongst the stars..."
Her pace in getting here was rather slow, but she had managed to find the building he resided in and sighed; he was busy at the moment, but Shiso had patience... Something she developed over time as a person. She was in no hurry, it seemed, and sat down next to the door as she played with her hair and faded robes idly; she wasn't so much 'tired' anymore... Just bored. But then again, it's not like she was in any rush to get home and change...
... She needed a bath. Badly... Perhaps after training... Nah. She liked her hair to be fresh and clean. So a bath first, then a change of clothes, then book... Then train? Sounded good... She then yawned and pulled the mask over her mouth, cradling her knees to her chest as she waited.
... She was awfully hungry too... Auughhh! At this rate, she'll never get any training done!
"... You are all I longed for, all I worship and adore~!"

Haji MiyakiJust outside the door to the Raikage's office stood a familiar member of the Cloud Village, his posture was one of a bit of laziness as he probably felt he had better things to do than be here. Heck, he had gotten more work as a retired jonin than he ever did as an assassin, which was ridiculous. "You..." The man spoke lazily looking at Shiso, obviously more calm than their last encounter nearly two years the previous. "How are you holding up?" It was more than obvious that the loss of his eldest son as well as the absence of his youngest was taking a mental toll on the man.

Ryumon Tensa
"Know that the way of the shinobi should be one of love for his family and people...Know too that the way of the shinobi is terribly harsh..."
Ryumon simply remained quiet...he had come to the decision that he would speak until spoken to.
He'd only seen the Raikage once before....at the exams...
he tried harder to focus on what being said lest his mind wondered. The memory of that failure tried to claw it's way into the front of his mind but he held it at bay while he focused more intently on the conversation.

Nemutai listened as Akeru and the Jounin from the village hidden in the sand spoke. After they were finished The Raikage spoke. "Akeru that is a very good point but Ryo also has a point as well..." He said thinking the offer over; He had given the information about the island to Haji as well as his advisors and he wasn't going to give the information out needed too on more people. "Alright; here is what we will do; we will split the Deal both ways. Kiko WILL go; but she is to act professional; and NOT to deal with Ichi unless needed. Akeru if you or the Jounin from Cloud Think that she act's in a way that is not fitting on a mission; She is to instantly be sent back off the island; no questions asked" He said looking at the others; there was bound to be those who didn't like his thinking; but he already knew Akeru's point of view on Kiko wasn't too fine; and Haji was very into the rules and formality; so he would be strict on what happened. "Meaning She is to NOT to speak to Ichi as though they were in a relationship of ANY kind, if that is the case but you do not think its enough for her to go home give her a warning; if it happens again she is sent back just as though she did something unbecoming of a Ninja on a job"
The Raikage was trying to put as much stress on this as he could; he was not going to have his ninja acting like love struck Puppy's on an important mission; but Akeru's point was good enough to give her at least a CHANCE.

☽Madaraki Shiso☾ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Mood: Scared...
Status: In a very tight, uncomfortable situation right now...
Location: The Raikage's Office.
Theme: Vigrid Station Home"Fly me to the moon, and let me play amongst the stars..."
As though she had been stabbed by a needle, she jumped and turned her head in the direction of Haji before letting the color drain from her face; it was like seeing a ghost. She hadn't really expected to see him after what had happened... Or his son. She could have always sent her condolences to him and his wife after the loss of their son, but then what she supposed to say to them? At that time, she was still grieving over Hiyo's death, and didn't know how to cope with the loss of a loved one...
"Whatever, just don't do something that will get Tatsuya killed, we've already lost one son because you wouldn't do anything I'd rather not lose another."
... Perhaps it was better not to show one's face in life. One wouldn't hurt anyone... Nor would one get hurt by anyone... A face should always be hidden behind a mask... Better a coward than a person who was dumb, slow, stupid, and worthless as she... She hated herself, sometimes... Had it not been for Hiyo, she might still been the same, in some way... Trying to hide her identity from everyone around her...
"... H-Hello Miyaki-san," said Shiso quietly as she stared down at her hands, "I am fine... I... Just got back from a mission. Y-You?"
It was impolite not to face one when talking, but she felt that if she did stare him in the face, she might start crying or shaking from the sight of him... She really needn't be afraid of him, but the thought of Hiyo and his death made her cry... Made her weak...

Haji MiyakiHaji's face craned slightly as if to nothing except the closed door, however immediately afterwards he gave a nod, again to the door before going back to addressing Shiso. With his right hand he placed it on the girl's shoulder, patting it a couple times before speaking. "I think I need to apologize for what I said after the attack. The wife said it was uncalled for and said I should have been out there protecting both of my sons, and I shouldn't have passed the blame onto you." After he spoke he lightly gripped the girl's shoulder for a moment before removing his hand, "plus, I did a good job on my own driving Tatsuya away, he left last year." He had bitterness in his tone but had more of a uncomfortable tone, and if she were to look at him he would have shifted his weight to lean against the wall and stare at the door, semi-switching the roles in the conversation.
