[[In the meantime, due to problems with Rachel, the takikage, I'm going to do another roll to get a different village. I'll continue to use the rules stated above.]]

[[Research DC= 126+4{additional roll}= 130/100
130 means.....Kumo...wait...is there even anyone in kumo anymore? s**t...one more roll in case there isn't. If there is, negate this roll
Ok, so theres no one in Kumo...but that makes this mission easier...oh well. Guess its kumo then.]]

Sakeme was ahead of Lady Youko and Elruda as they followed the ANBU to the Kage's tower. Upon entering she was able to spot someone she was actually happy to see. Witha small smile she walke dbehind Xin and greeted him. "Long time no see... glad you made it, I was getting a bit worried..." She looked behind her to see if the two Hyuugas were following her before turning back to the Amekage's brother. They were going to go home... Finally...

Xin would perhaps be genuinely surprised as Yokou entered: her daughter was perhaps a splitting image of her, save for her with the darker shade of midnight-blue hair. At a cursory glance, it was as if Elruda had decided to take up a Henge for sport had not that same child stood beside her. But this woman had a certain serenity, a calmness so powerful that it seemed to fill the entire room. Her pretty features were perhaps a little rigid, like that of a porcelain doll, but her eyes reflected what her lovely face may not convey. Her outfit was simple, a plain gray yukata...as Yokou had not the time to properly dress up when the ANBU came calling, but neither her free-flowing long hair (not upswept in a high ponytail as it usually was) nor the simplicity of her garb dulled her beauty.
Perhaps, it would be difficult to believe that she was already thirty...or perhaps like her sensei with her own method to cheat time...?
To her right was her daughter, wearing the same placid expression as her mother...though her eyes were noticeably more demure, without the same fire. The child was dressed prettily, in a lovely embroidered red kimono, hair swept up with two long jeweled hairpins through the pin-cushion shaped bun, tiny jewels dangling at the pole of those pins. Yet, though Elruda may have been dolled up...the accessories seemed so foreignly alien on her...the heavy wooden sandals that she wore seemed to be ill-fitting for the Hyuuga clan's famous grace.
Yokou did not acknowledge Xin first. Instead, she turned, and with a regal half-bow, right hand swept over her left side (though without losing either ground or height) that seemed to convey courteous gratefulness to the ANBU that took them here...as well as a sign for certain dismissal, before repeating the same gesture to Ame's ambassador. "Yokou of the Hyuuga clan." Came the quiet words. Five simple words, but those of Konoha's way for formal greeting.
The blank expression left Elruda's face. A soft intake of breath before the child looked at Xin first and then glanced at her mother. "Xin-sama...my...okaa-sama."

When Xin saw Sakeme and Elruda walk through that door he was over joyed and couldn't help but kneel before the two of them and huge the two of them tightly in his arms. "Elruda, Sakeme, I am so pleased to see that the two of your are alright." He blurted out without really noticing the woman accompanying the two. However, after hugging them he took it upon him to rise and bow in return to show his respect but kneeling in front of the two children right after. "That man didn't hurt either of you did he?" Xin asked with concern, then added; "I had no idea that my students were with the head of the Hyuuga clan but I thank you for returning them Yokou. The Amekage will be pleased to know they are safe and well."
Xin wasn't sure how this woman was going to react to his words, as if he was taking them with him and at the current moment he would be a little stubborn concerning the two children. Xin returned his attention back to Elruda and Sakeme, speaking softly. "So are the two of you ready to go home? On our way out I'll buy you both whatever you would like to eat and then after that I treat you to ice cream. How does that sound?" he questioned the both of them.

Sakeme was surprised at first when Xin greeted her and Elruda with a hug. They weren't something she was given often, but... she liked it. So she hugged him in return. "Yeah, we're both fine... I think I pretty much blacke dout on the trip... the altitude and all... the kid was green for a while though... that's about it..." She gave him the only type of smile she'd ever been capable of... a small one... then she gave a small worried glace to the two Hyuugas. "I'm ready to go... most definately... but the kid... I think she wants to stay with her mom... and even if she wanted to go... I doubt Lady Youko would allow her to return to our village..." She hoped they could come to something where Youko would willingly let Elruda go... maybe even join them in Amegakure... but Sakeme doubted that. Ice cream does sound really good right now though...

"Her mother? Hm, well she could come with us." Xin said while slightly glancing up at Yokou. This would definitely promote a problem if Elruda wanted to leave and her mother wouldn't let her. He had no problem letting the child stay but he would have to take her back to the village to get everything straightened out with the Amekage before they would be able to release Elruda into her mother's custody. Paper work and all that jazz, such a pain the system was. "You don't have to be anywhere important Yokou, do you? I'm sure you would love to visit Ame. Its a very beautiful and peaceful village." Xin asked the leader of the Hyuuga clan.

"Elruda's a shinobi of Amegakure no Sato now, and she chose that of her own free will... I understand this perfectly." Quiet words, without any hint of emotion. Yokou walked over to her daughter, bending down, fingering a long strand of midnight blue hair from Elruda's long sidebangs. "As selfish as it was..." Her stoic voice flickered momentarily, betraying pain. "I...had hoped that one day...she too would inherit a desire to protect Konoha..." The faint lighting of the room and her long bangs, elongated by her slightly bowed head...hid Yokou's expression.
But then she turned and looked Xin straight in the eye. "I can't say that I'm not at least a bit envious..." A soft pause. "...that she chose Ame instead..."
"First among Konoha's Sannin, I may go where ever I wish... Yet, I cannot leave right now. Not because of sensei or the others...Elruda's my precious daughter but the other children of my clan..." Her expression did look regretful now. "I should've never taken the children out of Konoha... Because I had so little faith in my own clan elders, that they would uphold the will of fire even under the usurper's reins...the little ones suffered because of my own paranoia. I am responsible."
She bowed again to Xin. "If it is chiisai-hime's wish, she may return to Ame. She...has no attachment to Konoha, other than as her birthplace..." "You lie with such a straight face...okaa-san. But you're not really "all right" with it. You're hurting, right?"
"I couldn't see many things before I left Konoha, but Wrath-sensei taught me these things...so my eyes could see more now... But if you lie to me again, I won't forgive you." With that said, Elruda hugged her mother.
"Go. They are waiting..." A brilliant smile flowered on Elruda's face. "I am a stray seedling...but the others long to return to the land of leaves... When that day comes...no longer with the need for strict formalities... Okaa-sama, come see me in Ame...alright?"
"Take care of yourself, don't go to sleep too late...no overindulging in sweets..." Then she swept down to whisper in Elruda's ear, though Sakeme, closest...could probably hear some broken fragments. "You better be alive and healthy when I come see you, twerp." Though the last bit was said playfully.
A gleam was in Elruda's eye now. "Heh. Okaa-sama, you should be the careful one. If you don't, I will become a greater Sannin than you in no time at all." "Oh, yes...which reminds me... Don't take candy from strangers..." Yokou laughed aloud as her daughter began clawing at her sleeve in indignation. "You'll be the first Sannin to land herself a place in the hospital for food poisoning."
Yokou then turned to Xin again. "Eh..." Elruda grimaced. "Just call him 'Xin-san', okaa-sama. It won't hurt. And no, I won't tell you his last name." "...all...right... Xin-san, I would request if Elruda can stay for a little longer. I would like chiisai-hime to talk to sensei first...perhaps you can meet him as well..." It was Yokou's turn to grimace, the same said Senju in question came back VERY drunk last night.
"...I don't know how it happened..." Yokou huffed. "...how...sensei ended up Hokage..." Elruda had a very wide grin on her face. "Oh yeah, Xin-sama. Zephyr-sama is pretty cool. He gets drunk, pretends he's a kid, is very whiny if things don't go his way - it's only a wonder why he didn't do drugs...but still a cool guy." Yokou groaned again. "That's not 'cool', chiisai-hime. Xin-san, please keep her away from all the above mentioned items."
"Eh...okaa-sama, there's a vein pulsing on your temple."
Yokou's expression was calm, but Elruda was right. When it comes to two very particular people in this world...she could not keep her temper in check well. "It's...one o' clock in the afternoon..."
No wonder she was pissed.
Zephyr came how at 1:00 am last "night" and with Yokou's announcement, he had just officially slept twenty-four hours. Which was very, very bad for a shinobi's busy schedule.
((exit Yokou))
"Oh, I think okaa-sama's mad again. (expression: O.o) Come, come Sa-chan, Xin-sama! The refugee quarters aren't that far. <3"
Which would be an understatement, of course.
((exit Elruda))

Xin was fine with Elruda staying a little while longer as long as he knew she was safe. He merely smiled and nodded to bother Hyuugas as they simultaneously spoke to him. Once all was said he quietly followed the three women out of the kage's office and to where ever they were taking him to.

Sakeme listened as the decision was made... The kid would be comming back... and that meant she was safe from Wrath... for now. There was a lot of other poetic and dramatic stuf fthat she didn't really understand, but that was fine... She just followed them out, they were going back to the refugee homes.

Roy came walking into the library of the Kage. It was a huge place that felt more like Roy's second home considering how much time he has spent here. Etna informed him to come here and vanished to go do something else. He began to walk around the area a bit and sighed lightly. It was a familiar smell that he enjoyed greatly.
He sat down with a book and waited for Etna to arrive.

Shuriro walked up the stairs to the Kage's tower... why they were headed there, she had absolutely no clue. Getting to the top however, she felt another. She assumed it would be Roy... as Etna was always with him wehn training was to be going on. Opening the door she slid herself into the room. "Um... hi... what are we supposed to be doing?" She walked across the room and took a seat across from the boy who was two years her junior. She waited for Etna to tell her what the heck was going on.

Etna came walking through a crack in the door. To be more precise, the door was a wall. This library was hidden as it was the secret library of the Tsuchikage. Roy had kept it up quite well as he looked about. A smile left Etna's lips as she looked over to Roy as he sat there reading.
"Having fun rugrat?"
The cat had adopted his family's infatuation with nicknames... correction, his mothers infatuation. A sigh left his lips as he closed the book and looked back to her, "Ha ha ha. What's this all about?"
