 Wisteria hefted him into a chair taking little to no care in his well being. As he started to wake from her neck strike hours ago, the Kage removed a single needle from a wristband and gently poked it into the back of his neck. "Welcome home, Dufayel. Please, any attempt to move will only cause you strife, you've been paralyzed momentarily." Leaning closer to him the Tsuchikage got right into his face. Awaiting his eyes to open, Wisteria wanted to read him. She was beyond listening to any of his words for the time of discussing matters had long passed. "I want no words from you. You are to listen and obey." As he came to Wisteria put her right arm against his left shoulder, pinning him back against the chair. With her hand she gasped his chin and pulled his face up so that he had but little choice to look at her. "Lets start with the things you should know before you make any future decisions." The Kage spoke softly and chose her words with care. Her tone had been gentle, almost tender and motherly but her voice had always seemed to hold that note of sensation that one had yet to pinpoint. "From here on out should you leave this village without escort you will hereby forfeit your citizenship and your life. If I have to send a single Hunter Nin after you let it be known that he will be instructed to kill you on sight." The Tsuchikage was taking further steps into her authority of the Village and the ANBU in the room could see that she was no longer a simple figurehead or bureaucrat and politician but a president who reprisented the entire Village with their consideration always in mind. The multiple Rock Shinobi in the room could but feel unrelented respect for their Kage at this moment in time and she could sense that.
Turning her head to the left now and looking over her shoulder she regarded one of the Lieutenant ANBU standing but a meter or so behind her, "find Yodai and bring him here please. The rest of you are dismissed." Looking back at Dufayel now, Wisteria began to tremble slightly and therefore stood straight and took a step back from Dufayel, turning her back so that she now faced the rooms large window. "How could you do this? What possessed you to turn your back on peace and sanctity, to turn your back on this Village, your home and the people within it, your family?!" Tears welled up within her eyes and the Tsuchikage crossed her arms over her chest, reaching up to place a hand of her own on each shoulder. "For all I have done for you, to trust you, to instill within you the principles that many would be envious of. To suggest and propose that you become one of the Kage's bodyguards. To ever call you a friend. Dufayel, you've spat in my face and trampled my good nature. In truth, I am jealous of your ability to be so cold but I know that I am better off the way I am for if I were anything like you I'd have a prison cell right next to yours. No, a hedgestone." Wisteria's voice cracked and trailed off. The Kage was choking up now and she despirately needed Yodai here with her. Her restraints were failing and Wisteria desired so much to simply take the life of her defective and former student.

The door to the back of the room opened. A lone ninja entered with the symbol of the stone on his right arm. The ninja looked at the situation and smiled for a moment. "You summoned me my lady?" Yodai was rather happy about the scene infront of him. He had never liked Dufayel in the slightest and he had always been bothered by the extreme freedom he was given around the village. Yodai didn't want to say anything as they had retreated from Leaf Village, but it disturbed him that the ninja infront of him had been able to leave the village undetected. He is growing more powerfull, she should just kill him before he kills her. Yodai sighed for a moment as he realized that now being the head of the anbu blacks ops one of his biggest resposibilities was security. And Dufayel is one major breach of security.

His voice was like an angelic chorus broadcasted down into the living world. The relief that Wisteria felt as Yodai entered the room was quite visible, her shoulders had dropped as well as her arms which now hung as if broken. Turning about on the balls of her feet she gave the Head of the ANBU one of the biggest, most genuine and heart warming smiles she could ever muster. Rubbing one of her eyes the Tsuchikage looked as if she'd just yawned, her eyes watered and drowsy. "Yes, I have a request." Weightedly, the Kage dragged herself towards Dufayel, her hand reaching behind the back of his head. With a simple flick of her wrist a senbon needle was visibly removed from the base of his skull. Placing a firm hand on her former student's shoulder she applied enough pressure to keep him seated and regarded Yodai. "This is entirely up to you but could you do me the biggest favor of all time and allow Dufayel to shadow you?" Under her hand she could feel Dufayel's surprise as his shoulder jumped ever so slightly. "Yodai, as the Head of the ANBU Black Ops you work exclusively with all matters of Iwagakure. Dufayel is a priority, an immediate concern and potential threat to the Village. You may use any and all descretion with him however I should ask that his life be preserved. The terms have been laid our clear as day to him and should he step out of line at any point you may use any force you see necessary."
Sighing, Wisteria removed her hand from his shoulder and took steps that were just as light as air, walking towards Yodai with an open gesture. Emotionally the room was filled with confliction and turmoil. The Kage's body felt heavier than any stone within the Village. Visibly she was worn and tired, Dufayel's presence pulling her deeper and deeper into obscurity. The father she got from Dufayel and the closer she got to Yodai the lighter and lighter her body grew, her confidence cautiously blooming. In a hushed voice Wisteria placed a hand on either shoulder of the ANBU Head and she brought her mouth directly next to his right ear, "I need him off my mind and out of my hands. Do not feel obligated in anyway just consider the position we'll both be in." Wisteria's voice was pleading and persuading though gentle and cautious with an awareness of the sensitivity of the terms. She was not sure what Yodai would do but she hoped that he do her the biggest favor of her life while she equally wished that he would not be put out.

Yodai was taken aback for a moment, the sheer question that Wisteria had just asked him was mind blowing to say the least. The ninja before Yodai was aggresive, ill mannered, and lack the basic discipline that most ninja pride themselves on. It took some time before the head of anbu could speak, but the answer that came out of Yodai lips suprised even himself. "Yes he can shadow me." Yodai thought process wasn't at all affected by his loathing of Dufayel. The young jounin actaully caused Yodai to think more about situations that involved the two of them. In this case Yodai knew that the best way to portect the village was to keep Dufayel as close to his side as possible, so that the ninja couldn't due harm without Yodai intervening. Yodai sighed once again as he looked Dufayel straight in the eyes. "I have been asked to spare your life, but if you jeopardize a mission, disobey an order, or try to attack me, I'll cut off one of your hands and your days of being a ninja are through.
Yodai eyes began to glare at the ninja in center of the room. "I know your methods, you prefer to torture rather than kill. In anbu we find that behavior inmature. If we are given a target to kill we will kill said target in the most efficent manner and nothing else." Yodai paused for a moment tghen continued on. "I will allow certain forms of torture only when we are interigating a ninja with solid infortmation is that clear?" Yodai finished his rant and turned to Wisteria. "What shall I do with him for right now?"

A great weight had been lifted off of Wisteria who now visibly became lighter, her eyes perking up if only just a little. "For now you may do what you like. Toss him in a detention cell, bind his hands and attach a leash to him, it is truely up to you at this point." The Tsuchikage was overcome with joy and the prospect of being free from Dufayel for sometime. Walking over to her desk in front of the large window, the Kage sat exhausted into the cushions and laid her eyes upon Dufayel and then Yodai. "If you would like you may have him put under someone elses responsibility for the time being however I would prefer you be his primary escort." Clasping her hands on the desk the Tsuchikage took one look at the mound of paperwork and sighed. "Looks like we'll both be busy."

Dufayel had not been bound to his chair nor restrained in anyway. With Wisteria and Yodai several paces away the defective Shinobi stood up from his chair, a startled glance awashing Wisteria's face with concern. Drawing his broadsword Dufayel sneered with delight. A single one handed sign was all he needed in order to use the Body Flicker Technique and in an instant the glass behind Wisteria had shattered, Dufayel fleeing from the Tsuchikage's Palace and attempting to leave the Hidden Rock. "I am no pet. I am far from being an idiot. They've gravely underestimated me." With his broadsword resting on his shoulder, the defective nin had reached the Iwagakure Gates, taken out the guards in a flash and disappeared. Dufayel no longer needed his Village's graces, he had all he needed in the ninja that had assisted him at the Kage Summit. The Earth Country was now just another mountain he needed to climb.

Startled and covered in glass, a howling gale blew into the Tsuchikage's Palace. Holding up her left hand Wisteria halted anything that Yodai was about to say or do. "He has made his decision. He is now an enemy of Iwagakure and a prime concern for the Earth Country. The information he contains is well beyond that of anything I know. He worked exclusively with the previous Tsuchikage and everything he knows is from that man." Placing two fingers on her lips she thought for a moment at what best to do. Seconds and then minutes passed before she knew the course of action she wished to take. Nervously she drummed on her desk, her iron-clad right hand making a very eerie sound against the stone desk.
"This will be a pet project of the ANBU. Dufayel conspired against the late Tsuchikage and has a great plan in mind. I should ask that you alert the ANBU and make it a priority to have only one Shinobi track him. Any more than one and Dufayel will be alerted." Ceasing her drumming, Wisteria slapped her palm lightly against the thick slab of stone. "Dufayel is to be tracked, do you understand? I want to find out what he is up to, who he is working with. If he's dead, we'll never know and one of his scheming allies will take his place. This is the perfect opportunity for both closure and vital information. I am leaving this in your hands Yodai, you know what it is that needs to be done." Leaning back in her chair the Kage lifted her left hand and began to rub her temples. The past few days had taken an alarming toll on her and she needed some rest. "Oh and could you have some of the Palace guards replace the window? Just let them know on your way out." Forcing a smile she gave the Head ANBU a sly wink before closing her eyes to clear her pulsing head.

Yodai sighed as he turned around to leave the room. It was going to be a challenge tracking Dufayel, because most of the anbu were brand new to the force and still we used to regular ninja mission instead of stealth and hunter type missions. "I take of this personally." Yodai left his kage's office with a small smirk on his face. It is about time.....
