Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kurome, accompanied by a pair of her team of ANBU, knocked on the doorframe, posture still rigid, but controlled enough not to be radiating one solid feeling, but rather a collection that was such a mess it would be difficult to read. The rest of her squad was left in the lower floors of the Manor, and the two ANBU with her were also unreadable.
"Found them," Kurome said, shortly, choosing not to elaborate as she tried to organize it into a more official-sounding report.

Kurome finally put her information into a semi-coherent mass of words, "It looked like it was a Hunter from Ame, but they were also with Baku and someone else I couldn't recognize." She took a breath, "Baku called the Hunter 'Haku'," she spat the names, still clearly incensed. "This 'Haku' smelled like blood, more than Hunters usually do."

Gahou trudged up to the door and knocked, leaning heavily on the doorframe.

Kurome bowed and stalked out, the ANBU following her.



Gahou staggered as he stood up straight from the doorframe, and then collapsed into a chair after walking the few steps to the piece of furniture. He looked at the Mizukage blearily.

"Inci--dent?" Gahou asked, as the left side of his body yawned, the other half completing the one-word question.

"I was?" Gahou's minds reviewed his journey as he tried to figure out what the Mizukage was talking about, frowning. Walked out of Sand, was passed by a Hunter-- who felt off, because when do you actually see a Hunter?-- and felt kind of sleepy as weI was passing into Fire country... Wait... Why would weI feel sleepy? Gahou's frown deepened for a moment, before he sat up straighter for a few seconds, and looked directly at the Mizukage, sleepy eyes as sharp as possible, eyelids twitching with the effort to keep them that way.
"I suppose I was. A Hunter passed me on the road, heading from Rain to Sand. I started to feel sleepy after that, I think. And when I woke up here, my shoulder didn't hurt. It was damaged in the Exams, and shouldn't be healed yet, though..." Gahou yawned again, his eyelids drooping and his shoulders slumping slightly as before.

Gahou stumbled out of the office and back to the apartment building, to sleep off the effects of the sedative.((exit))

Same and the rest of them appeared inside the office, hearing Kiri's voice he opened the door. "Mizukage-Sama is not here at the moment. He is in the Training Grounds with a pupil. But you are to remain here with us. He's ordering the Mist Seven to assemble."

A voice came from the corner. "The reason you were called here is because he wishes to have his village's best ready to hold the events that will take place. And Kiri, he did not wish for something to be sparked between our village and another, in this case, Sunagakure. If you were to try and capture Kimishun at the current point in time, it would warrant an attack from Suna in retaliation to bring him back. This is unneeded at this point in time."

"Besides, Kimishun is in Otogakure right now, and therefore still within the borders of the Thunder Alliance. Therefore, he is of little concern. Also, Kirigakure's number one target would be Etsuko Miyomura or whatever his name was. The one who joined Akatsuki."
