A massive forest outside the gates of Konohagakure that reaches to the Land of Rice. It contains several springs and ponds as well many dirt paths, making it a nice place to stroll through.

✯ Hikaru didn’t mind that it had taken longer to find her genin than she would have liked because they were off on their mission, it was a C-rank which was great and she was sure they would like it better than doing a D-Rank such as catching that cat or cleaning the village. No this mission was on a whole different level even if it were an escort one.
She was content to lead the way until their client changed their direction, she would let the genin figure out where they should take their places in this escort. ‘hmm do I let them… I would like to see how they handle them selves.’
That thought had been in her hed more than once but she had done her best to ignore it as she paid attention to everything going on around her. With a little more thought she nodded to her self, “ Uchiha Kun.. Why don’t you take charge for a bit.”
‘Now we test his potential’
Hikaru Pulled out the scroll with the mission details and looked it over one last time before putting it away out of sight and giving the mission at her 100% of her focus.✯

The young man lands ahead of the pack with a smile on his face and a hand behind his head as he said, "Sensei. What do you think will happen on our way to the Iwagakure?" He asked with his hands in his Kimono sleeves. Each time he walked, his hair bounced lightly. He didn't know why he needed an escort, or why these documents were so important. But it was understandable know that it would be a little less important to know. His eyes closed and looked back thinking of what to do.

He had many plans of action and ways to protect anyone and everyone from the back of the group, he was preparing for the worse however he was hoping for the best. He was not sure what was in store for them, but he was ready for almost anything. He listened as Hikaru placed Hiro in the lead, it wasn't a bad idea, from what he gathered Hiro would make a good leader, and he was smart enough for the job. Akirama was more or less going to be the voice of reason in the group considering he seemed to be the most stable out of the three of them. He figured he would be more or less the strategist and the one to help in the stickier situations. He smiled at the thought of them all being useful to the team and even more useful later for the village. His hair blew lightly in the wind as he heard Akirama ask about her thoughts on what would happen, he was not sure what to think without knowing the importance of the documents he was unsure how interested others would be in them. However to need escorts there would have to be some importance to them so even if the chances were slim the man could very well be a target at the moment, in that case the people targeting him could attack, but it would be better for them if they waited till the shinobi left his side, however that would most likely be to late and he would be under the protection of Iwagakure at that point. They would have to attack during the trip, the best time would be when they took a rest and were relaxing that would give them the upper hand since the group would most likely have their guards lowered and possibly even be separated ever so slightly, this would be their weakest point and the point at which he himself would ambush the group. ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀
Progressing through the woods, the architect began to pace a little faster than what the groups speed was. Figuring that the quicker he walked the quicker he'd get back to the village, he picked up his pace to hopefully avoid any conflicts. As he was progressing through the woods, he looked around a bit to catch the view, and wasn't paying much attention to the ground as he was walking and caught his foot on a root. He tripped over the root, hitting his head on the ground and spilling all of the scrolls of blue prints in his bag. The man got up and rubbed his head after hitting and said to the group, "Ugh...excuse me, but would you guys be able to help me pick these up?" ▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲ OOC: {}
Hiro stuck next to the architect during their walk, looking around to make sure they weren't being followed or if there were any traps. Once he heard that he was in charge, he felt a bit surprised but took charge nonetheless. Hiro took a look at the trees above, seeing all the shadows that were being cast by the positioning of the trees, Shikairu's ability would become very handy if they were attacked. He could also bait them into another attack by having them focus on the shadow. Hiro looked over at the architect once he fell and quickly looked around like he were on alert as this could be a prime moment to attack. He cautiously walked over and helped the man up, checking him for any injuries. Hiro looked over at the rest of the squad and pointed over at the scrolls for them to pick them up as he attended to the VIP. They were vulnerable now, so they needed to get going. Hiro still looked at every bush and branch and cursed under his breath as the Sharingan would have been so useful in this situation as he could determine their position through their chakra source. So far there was no attack, but Hiro sure expected one considering their current status.

✯ Hikaru pondered a little at the question Akirama asked but it was a hard one to answer there were so many things that could happened and she really didn’t want to guess on what could happen or even what would happen. As a shinobi she knew better than to have such thoughts instead all she wanted to do was the mission and she wanted that over with ASAP, ‘You’ll learn one day kid.’
The speed at which they walked increased slightly as the man they were escorting had picked up his pace however it wasn’t uncomfortable at least not until the man fell and out of instinct Hikaru took a few steps towards him but held off when Hiro seemed to take care of the situation. Hikaru held her hand up and palm out towards Shikairu telling him to stay there and then she pointed her finger at her eyes telling him to keep a close watch as she went to gather the scrolls and other documents not bothering to look at them as it was none of her business.
Taking the small stack over to the man she smiled a little at him, “ Here you go.”
‘Better keep an eye out for things like this…’
She waited for him to take the scrolls and ducuments and to look them over making sure that all was accounted for. ✯

The man rubbed his head a bit more while smiling at both Hikaru and Hiro for standing by him at the moment. He pointed at Hikaru with a sense of excitement and said, "Hey...I know who you are! Hikaru Uzumaki, yes, yes, yes, I've heard many things about you, especially how strong of a shinobi you are. I heard you've been credited as one of the top in your village for your rank! Especially since you're an Uzumaki, and might I say, you look pretty good also!", then pointed at Hiro and said, "And you're Hiro Uchiha, one of the few remaining Uchiha left! I've heard many great things about you and what the future holds for you", then Akirama and said, "And a Senju! One of the most loving and compassionate type of Shinobi out there! You have one of the strongest wills and even greater strengths!", and then finally Shikairu and said, "And a Nara! One of the most intelligent genin in the lands! Wow, you guys really are some squad!". The man was filled with excitement for the moment as he continued to compliment everyone and how amazed he was at the chemistry of their squad. He laughed with joy and had a bright smile on his face, but....that bright smile soon turned into a very dark and mischievous smile, while his laugh turned into a very evil and bitter one. He looked at the group with a evil glare and said, "You guys look like a squad with so much a potential...but it's quite the shame..." He paused for a moment and reached out to the grab the scrolls, but jolts his hand back and forms a Seal of Confrontation while screaming in a very menacing tone, "That it's all going to end here! Katsu!". The scrolls Hikaru was holding and those that surrounded him began to light up from paper bombs sealed inside of them. Along with the scrolls that lit up, a few trees surrounding the squad had exploding tags on them also and lit up as they were about to explode. ▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲ OOC: {Bang Bang}

Hikaru then commanded him to keep an eye on the area, he was not to concerned about the area, his sinking feeling came back as the man talked about Hikaru, then Hiro. He spoke about them as if he knew them personally. He mentioned Akirama and himself this was when Shikairu picked out a few things, the way the man tripped and then started talking about them, "Drop the scrolls and get back." He said as he got out of harms way and sent his shadow outwards, it broke apart into a few different parts and snagged the scrolls from Hikaru and tossed them high into the air, at the same time one tendril came up from behind the man his shadow attempted to catch the man off guard if hit it would turn into the shadow imitation technique. This would freeze the mans movements. Even if the shadow didn't connect from behind him the others would wrap around the places the paper bombs were in to weaken the blasts from each tag. This would leave an opening for one of the others to advance in and attack considering the man would be avoiding his attacks and most likely side tracked. He figured the man wasn't who he seemed, he was not sure what was to happen next, but he had plenty of time to analyze and come up with a play. He knew he couldn't stop all the tags but stopping what he could would help either way, it would give the rest of the group a chance to get out of harms way as he did. He was not trying to kill the man, rather he was trying to capture him to reveal his motives and reasoning behind this event. ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀
Hiro stood back up as Hikaru handed the scrolls back to the old man. Once he started going on about Hiro and the rest of his squad, Hiro knew something was up. As did Shikairu. Hiro looked at the creepy smile he had on his face and was about to grab him and try and choke him to sleep so they could question him, until he heard him say Katsu. Thankfully Shikairu had used his shadow to throw the bag of decoy scrolls into the air, as Hiro moved from the man and lifted his arms up to shield him from the blasts coming from the trees around him. The bombs exploded, pushing Hiro back a bit. Hiro's eyes lit up and be let out a loud and quick expression of pain as the wood being blown off by the trees stabbed into his left bicep, forearm and thigh, the rest whizzing by him as he received a cut on his shoulder. He winced hard but did his best to push the pain back as blood trickled down his arm and leg. Hiro began to pull out the oversized splinters from his leg with his free hand, grasping it tightly as he yanked it out with force, dropping it to the ground beside him, grunting in pain as he yanked each one out of his leg.

As the squad walked and the Sensei and target were exchanging words, he heard the compliments from their clans. The young man closed his eyes and blushed at his until he heard the , 'It's a shame bit'. He then turned to the man as the explosion prepared. His hand went up quickly to preform a jutsu, but he was thrown to the side and hit a tree as the explosion made it's shockwave. His back whipped around it as he coughed lightly and his eyes slightly winced. He fell onto his arm and he shivered slightly as while slowly rising up. "Se-se-sensei...Hiro....Shika....You okay?" He asked as his mouth let small drops of blood fall. He was hurt a little, but his concern wasn't his own.

✯ The man seemed to be a bit clumsy much like how Hikaru could be in front of the Elders and the Hokage but there seemed to be more to it than that. First the man started to sound excited and he spouted off about her then he moved on to each of the others and it set off a flair in her head as she went over everything that had happened up till then.
As the look on his face changed so did the feelings that Hikaru had inside and with out thinking she gave the man a death glare as each thing he did clicked into place, ‘No, no, no, no, no no, no, no, no…. This isn’t right… this cant happen’
The man made her blood run cold as she was for a moment frozen in place by the menacing tone that came from him. She heard Shikairu yell to drop them but it went from bad to worse when he yelled out Katsu, Hikaru knew what it meant and in that critical moment she knew she should have acted faster as she dropped the Scrolls and formed the needed hand signs before dropping to one knee and slamming her hands palms down against the ground. “ Chakra Kusari Shuheki!!!”
‘This is taking too long…’
Hikaru had pulled it off but not nearly fast enough to prevent that damage that would be done. She watched as the barrier went up, but the blast went off before it was finished and as a result Hiro was damaged by the splinters created as the tree exploded and Akirama was thrown rather hard into a tree that did not explode but happened to be inside the barrier. Hikaru could only hope that Shikairu faired better than his team mates as for Hikaru she held her ground and didn’t flinch when she was cut from under her left eye back around her cheek and several of the larger wooden splinters pierced her skin causing a hiss of pain.
She was just grateful that the barrier took most of the force of the explosion and it was the same barrier that Kushina Uzumaki erected to trap the Kyuubi so it could be sealed inside her infant son, Naruto. That shield was something that was part of her family and something she was proud of, but was it enough?✯

Behind the cloud of smoke produced by the paper bombs was a masked man dressed in a pure white cloak with blood red Kanji written on the back depicting "Pride, Power, Peace". The man stood firm with his arms dropped down to his side as he said in a deep, stern tone (Like Madara's), "That was a very gutsy move 'Blue'. You may end up just killing yourself one day...". He stared at the group of shinboi crippled by the explosion and adjusted his blood red mask slightly with his hand. Behind both eye holes in the mask were two Sharingan with 3 tomoe in each eye glowing brightly under the dark inner portion of his mask. He looked all around the group, getting the external details of each and every person in the group, knowing that he couldn't miss out on anyone there, being that they all had their unique traits to them which could counter Pride at any given moment. Asserting himself to the group, he said, "A fine group of shinobi you have here Uzumaki....but it seems you're all still weak-minded in combat. I take a very big interest in the Uchiha boy you have over there...he's like a flower that has yet to bloom with power, waiting to blossom at any given moment...Uchiha Hiro, how badly do you want power....the power to protect yourself, your peers, even this world...and more importantly...avenge your mother's death...?". Pride spoke in a very mysterious and stern tone, trying to convince the young Uchiha to join him in his quest for power. Pride had studied shinobi and their abilities from every nation on a consistent basis to help in his recruitment for his organization and his total goal for country-wide peace. Pride knew well enough that he would achieve his goal overtime, but it would take plenty of time and effort to obtain more followers for his major plan. ▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲
OOC:{I'd like to apologize to everyone for messing up the order, especially Tinuviel for messing up her posts. I've been very impatient with everyone posting lately because I've been wanting to get the ball rolling with everything, but my impatience has messed a lot up. However, we can still fix the messed up posting format, so here's how it'll go from here on in this location until this is over with: Hikaru, Me, Mist, Sikairu, Hiro, Akirama. Hope this will fix the messed up order. Also, Photobucket hasn't been working for me lately so I only have a picture with the one eyehole, so there should really be 2 there, but I'll upload that picture once photobucket starts working for me again.}

Standing were the old man was Blue swayed back and fourth in the breeze. Slowly tilting his head he continued to sway, "I'm all about....the gutsy moves..." Blue said in a solid deep voice, his head slowly turning to his friend. "You insult me, minor paper bombs will have no effect on gods like us." He said as he laughed histerically, calming down he looked back over at his friend. "Are you sure these peasents are even worth bothering? Hiro will never have strength or power to avenge his mother.....is he worthy of us even showing are selfs today?" Blue said his head facing Hiro as his eyes glistened under his mask. The wind continued to blow Blue back and fourth. His head slowly turned as he watched Hiro, eyes quickly flashing to Akirama Senju, he starred at him.
Blue's suddenly appeared in front of the barrier and starred at akirama and his head slowly tilted as he continued to watch him. His head proceeded to turn towards Shikairu he looked up and down at the boy and laughed, "Come out from behind that barrier or are you all scared?" He asked curiously as he tilted his head back and fourth.

Because Shikairu was already the furthest away from the center of the area and further more jumped back to get into a safe placement he was unaffected by the explosion. A few pieces of shrapnel flew out nearly hitting him but he came out unscathed, Hiro hadn't taken charge in getting them into a battle position or setting up a attack or defense strategy. Hiro looked to be in to much pain to do anything at the moment, Akirama got hurt but rather he spoke to the team and didn't focus on his own injuries. Hikaru set up a barrier, however she wasn't taking that extra step to command them. A new person showed up speaking to the old man who wasn't actually who he appeared to be, about killing himself. He spoke about recruiting Hiro into his group, most likely because he was an Uchiha, Uchiha seem to be the focus of people craving power. Shikairu dispersed his jutsu, he stood up straight the man spoke of being a God and how none of them were worth the time. Even if they were ranks above the genin, that didn't make them Gods. 'These people seem to have big heads, it's almost as if they are just starting out and are looking for shinobi to join their cause. What is their goal, are they bent on taking over the shinobi world or destroying it. How many members do they have and just how powerful are they at the moment.' He watched as the man stood outside the barrier seemingly unable to get in, he then took time out to stare at Akirama and then his attention seemed to turn towards Shikairu he then spoke to them trying to get them to come out. "Why should we come out. For being a God you seem to be stuck outside of a normal shinobi's barrier. What a pathetic God you are." Shikairu taunted the man trying to get under his skin, maybe if he was able to get to the man he would make a mistake and they could capitalize, he wasn't sure how the man would react. He also wasn't sure what Hikaru had in mind in terms of defending this young group or even if she had plans to do so. He readied himself for an altercation and stayed alert to both men's locations, he was aware that they were both out of his league but he had to not only defend himself but those around him as well. He wasn't sure what his plan of attack was but he would be sure to put up a fight no matter how useless it would be. ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀
