Ninja's: Sands of the forest: Mission 1

[Grim327]

Makoto saw the three Yukiko's not knowing which was the real one or if she was somewhere else entirely. "No matter." he muttered to himself. Makoto unsheathed his katana and dashed with great speed to the first Yukiko. He easily sliced threw her and made his way to the second doing the same, but was not convinced that he was able to make it to the last one before she finished.

He did infact make it to the third, which also puffed away. in the smoke created by these attacks, Yukiko struck, kicking him high into the air. Her arm became aflame with blue fire arcing over it like electricity.
"Screaming chidori!" she cried out as he came back down.

There was a thud as he landed. she caught him with her other hand, the screaming attack a mere foot away from his face.

"Done yet?" she asked.

 

[Grim327]

"Huh, your good, but believe me, we will spar again and next time it will be a draw." Makoto replied with looking up to her with a smirk.

 

[mcpop9]

"You guys have this time to relax, Matoko here just earned it for you. you have until we leave." Yukiko said putting out the attack.

She then laid back against a nearby rock, pulling out a book.

Sorry for disappearing like that everyone. I've been really busy with school because these teachers like to cram as much B.S. in as possible before thanksgiving break. My schedule is kinda shaky but I won't just bail on you.

It's fine, you've missed a sparring match between sensei and the new guy.
Say hi to your companions, strike up a conversation till the GM wakes up from its slumber.

 

[mcpop9]

Yukiko clapped the book shut after a while. "You guys seem like the talkative bunch. Any questions before we leave?"

 

[TheIronRuler]

Kayo turned to Makoto, "You should avoid your mud technique for my sake". He stood up and proclaimed, "I'm ready to leave".

 

[Grim327]

"I'll be sure to do that." Makoto replied to Kayo. He then turned turned to Yukiko and asked, "Ya, Do we have any idea who the VIP is?"

 

[mcpop9]

"One of the village elders. He requested a Kohohagakure team specifically, can't fathom why. What matters is the village is getting payed to do this." Yukiko said putting the book away.

The team took off towards Sungakure. after a days travel, they arrived near a large dune, just a few miles outside of the village. Yukiko had each of them silent as the group passed by. Peeking over the dune cautiously, thee nin and the elder in the middle of the group.

Yukiko went back down to the group. She opened a pouch and pulled out a few headsets. "I want us in constant communication." she said while handing them out. "We'll be most effective if not traveling as a team, less of a signature. everyone move out." then disappeared in a blur.

 

[Grim327]

Makoto put the headset on and dashed to a dune that was about 200 meters away from the escort group. Once the group got towards around 300 meters he would start following so as not to draw attention. "Yukiko," Makoto said, "do we break cover if we see a possible threat, or do we wait for confirmation before engaging?" he asked after keying in on his mike.

 

[mcpop9]

"Wait for conformation. Don't want to upset the elder."

 

[Grim327]

"Yukiko-sensei, I have a suggestion. What if we had one person, and only one person, act as a forward scout ahead of the elder and his escort, to make sure no ambushes are along the path?" Makoto replied.

 

[mcpop9]

"'Grats, you've just volunteered yourself for recon duty." Yukiko said while dashing behind a dune.

 

[TheIronRuler]

Kayo put on his headset.
"This sand is different, I can't bend it physically" he whispered, "I'll come with you, Yukiko".

 

[mcpop9]

The Junin dashes to another dune and finds Kayo behind her. the area was starting to become littered with dead trees. there were also less dunes an more solid ground appearing.

there was a small vibration in the ground for a brief second, putting Yukiko on her toes. "They seem to be stopping up ahead in a clearing. everyone stay on your guard."
