Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sachoi pointed behind the girl to Svellos "He's your squad leader but at the moment we are going on a mission, he will attend to you once he returns understood?" it was clear Sachoi wasnt taking no for an answer and wanted to go on this mission, feel the fresh air for once in his gloomy days of Mizukage, what happened to the fun stuff like the kidnapping of the Konoha genin?

Sachoi stretched while strapping Samehada to his back "Eh, lets go Svellos!" he jumped through the window of his office and was suprised at how fun it was "Now I see why everyone insists on doing this crap!" he laughed wildly waiting for his companion to follow.

Zane stepped appeared alongside the hunter nin in front of the Kiri Council. He was wearing his full shinobi gear, and his signature cloak, hiding his face in complete darkness. Stepping forward the head of the council stood up.

Zane Hajime...do you know why you are here today? the old man asked as his cold and dark eyes pierced through the darkness, as if looking inside of Zane's very soul.

I'm guessing I wasn't invited here for some tea and cookies now was I? he retorted in the same cold tone that the man had talked to him in. He hated dealing with the council, it was them who had him trained as a hunter nin, and it was them who had imprisoned his little brother. In truth, they were the ones with the true power, the ruling force behind the Mizukage.

As you know, the previous Mizukage is dead the old man began as he ignored Zane's rude and sarcastic comment. You are by far the strongest shinobi in this village. You have proven time and time again to be a great hunter nin, and an even fiercesome shinobi. We have been watching you for some time, and we know that you have retired as a shinobi. But now we ask you to fulfill your duty as a shinobi of the mist and accept the role of Mizukage of Kirigakure the old man stated, putting much emphasiz on the title.

Zane entered his office as he began making adjustments to it. The windows were reinforced and could neither be opened from the outside nor broken through easily unless via a high ranked jutsu. The door was boobie trapped, meaning that anyone opening that door without Zane's consent will have several senbon needles stuck through the body. The entire room was dark, only lit by a single candle in the middle of the room. Zane, who has been in the darkness since he could remember, could see through it easily as his eyes have been adjusted to it. He simply sat on his desk and began looking through the files and paperwork.

The Mizukage released the trap as the door would open automatically, the light from the outside illuminating only a couple of feet inside the office. A single candle burned in the middle of the room, as if it called for Seras to walk to it. A single voice echoed througout the room...asking for Seras to step towards the light. Using his stealth, the Mizukage had merged himself with the darkness.

"Oh...you don't think so?" the voice chuckled in the darkness as the Mizukage performed a single seal. Suddenly a ghost would appear before her...a ghost of an acient shinobi covered by a single robe. The robe was tattered and bloodied, but not from his own blood, but the blood of those he had killed when he was alive. The ghost extended his hand as if it yearned to touch her. This was all a simple joke that the Mizukage felt on playing with the girl, but he was curious how she would react in the face of such a gruesome creature. Ezio...his partner...did enjoy his bit of fun every once in a while, and the fact that he was a ghost made him quite easy to scare people.

What!? Am I loosing my touch here Zane? Ezio asked as his shoulders slumped and he let out a huge sigh. Though he spoke loudly, Seras would not be able to understand any word Ezio spoke. I'm do not play with the souls of the dead...I utilize them in order to achieve my goal. As a mater of fact I help them find their peace in process. Anyways... the voice echoed throughout the room. What do you want? I am rather busy getting this village sorted out
