Eastern Gate

The fishman was still observing the fight between the Konoha nin and Menza. They were exchanging blows as quickly as any ninja could perform. Whatever was happening Kyoji would soon have to put his foot down. The damage that was ensuing was nothing short of catastrophe. However things changed very quickly when Rin went to land a low blow, he did. Then he disappeared. If Kyoji hadn't seen Menza do it before, he would have been completely shocked.

Menza dropped to a knee suddenly, the exchange with the ninja was more serious than he thought. The pale man muttered to himself before turning to Kyoji, vying for him to release his technique. Though this was hot moment for Kyoji, he would have normally been elated to see Menza suffer for his repeated threats. There were bigger threats at the moment. As Menza offered a great prize in his exchange and helping to capture the ninja. Which was what Kyoji was going to do anyways. The offenses against the Kiri ninja had to be brought to light. One of his ninja reporting had already told them, that someone had tried to sneak in.

Kyoji released the technique and strolled forward with a concentrated expression. Drawing closer to Menza, his eyebrows narrowed and he said, "Lead the way Menza. I shall take that offer." He reached forward and grabbed his arm. And he too was teleported to a strange land. Was this...Menzagakure?

[EXIT to Market]

[Entering Kiri for sole purpose of giving Katsumi her Bijuu]

A man with a dark hood would slowly make his way through the Kirigakure. He was given documents that would ensure that he would be permitted into the village. He had business to attend to and was ordered by his master to see it through. Underneath the darkness of the man's hood and robes, would be a decript zombie brought to life by the power of one of the most secret techniques in the world. Once through the gates, the man would head straight to Kirigakure's secret sealing chamber.

Andariel followed the main road until she found the main gates of Kirigakure. Approaching the front desk she would fill out the appropriate information for her entry before being cleared. When stepping into the boundaries of the village her chakra signature was recorded just like all the new comers to ensure her safety. Andariel didn't have a lot of plans. Just like in Kumogakure she much preferred to be shelled up in the comfort of her own home rather than socializing. She figured she would unpack at her hotel and cozy up for the night. She had to pull some crazy strings to get a room for herself and to not share with the other Kumogakure ninja. Andariel found it a bit embarrassing to explain to the staff about her background as a succubus. But in reality she simply used that as an excuse to be alone. Andariel bowed politely to the security checkpoint personnel before heading inside the city.

Following the flock of Kumogakure ninja came Kye. He was surprised how quick the journey was, though he imagined on one of Kumogakure's top rated vessels it would make any form of water travel feel like a stone toss. He was undoubtedly separated from his original group as the large flock of ninja from Kumogakure waited to be serviced. Two security check points were open as well as ninja staff on the ground creating four organized lines where they took names and filled out the proper documentation. When it was Kye's turn he'd fill out the details and enter the city with little issue. He felt it would be in his best interest to unpack before roaming the city and see what it had to offer.

"Oh wow. Looks like somebody had a bonfire accident." Tsuki commented on the number of scorch marks and scarce of vegetation in the surrounding area. Her molten golden eyes were shifting around the area at this Kirigakure gates. Taking in whatever small details there was to see. Even noting how some of the guards were giving her some expressions like they were confused. Her brow furrowed as she was silently asking if there was something wrong. They waved her off as she managed to catch wind of their whispers.

...Nah, can't be… Not exactly sure what they're talking about, but Tsuki went on to sign herself in. Where she will hopefully communicate with somebody in Kirigakure. It wasn't everyday that she gets to venture outside of the Land of Lightning, and she has never met anyone from this village. So it was pretty exciting for her.

Zenaku got off of the boat and he walked up on to the shore of the island, he could not believable how much different the land of water was compered to the land of fire. He was not sure if he was to wait on kimiko or if he was to just enter the village. Sense he was not sure he walked up to the desk and asked for help on how to enter the village hidden in the mist.

Taiga arrived in the Land of Water after a long journey from the shores of the Land of Fire. She didn't quite fancy the open seas and spent most of her time inside her cabin. She had a spark of joy when the captain announced they've hit land and were able to step foot on earth once again. She traveled with the others and arrived at the front gates where she would sign in like her peers did. After completing the sheet she would turn it in to the guard before entering the village with the others. Taiga would make her way to the ninja academy to sign up for the exams.

Q hopped up off the boat and stretched. He found the accommodations a bit cramped but it was whatever. The young man jammed his hands into his pockets and then followed the group into Kirigakure. He found the Chuunin Exams to be extremely overblown but it was one of those things that he simply had to do. The selfish lad thus decided that he may as well "try his best" to do well on this bullshit test. He walked into the village and headed straight for the sign-ups and testing administration.

Reason for Entering/Leaving: Chuunin Exams

Yoshitsune hopped off the boat as soon as they docked. The trip had been… altogether unpleasant. Boats were wiley beasts. Their journey across the sea had been rough, with the beast of burden apparently being incredibly unsettled. It rolled and roiled as it crawled through the water, and created an entirely unpleasant experience to be carried on its wooden back. The constant motion was enough to nearly bring Yoshitsune’s lunch hurdling out of her stomach on several occasions, and so she was glad to be on solid land again now. She would take the quick path to the village following that, seeking to have her business taken care of as fast as possible.

Full Name: Rini Nakamura
Citizenship: Kumogakure no Sato
Reason for Entering/Leaving: Chuunin Exams
Expected Duration: N/A

Rini couldn't be happier to leave the boat. The girl decided if she never saw another boat, it would be too soon. Rolling out on her wheelchair, she joined the convoy to Kirigakure, and upon reaching the gates was already thinking of a way to develop a system of travel that didn't involve water. She signed in, learning the process that Kirigakure allowed people in and tucking that information away for later, in case she ever needed to plan an infiltration.

The area around the gates was scorched and under recent construction, meaning something recent had happened here. Perhaps it would be worth looking into? Some information would be available in the village while they stayed there for the exams.

But for now, it was time to sign up for the exams while she still had the opportunity to. She wasn't used to last minute decisions like this, so she hoped she was adequately prepared for the exams.

-Enter Kirigakure

Flashback

The afternoon was warm and sunny in Kirigakure as Calis strode up to the gates. He was bored and taking a break from his training in order to ensure he didn’t push himself too hard. During this self imposed stretch of time he remembered how bored he and Chigetsu had been on gate guard duty and decided to pay whoever was on duty a visit with a couple of drinks and some rice balls. They were a solid snack to have between things and wouldn’t require them to go on their lunch break to eat. Either way, it had been something for him to do.

Arriving at the gates he would smile and wave his hand at the guards who nodded at him and looked at him curiously. “Morning you two. I remembered how boring guard duty was for me, and I’m not doing anything. So I made you guys something to munch on and brought you some drinks. Hope that’s alright.” He would say, holding the wrapped box out to them and prompting a smile. “No problem, names Shinji, thanks.” He would say, taking the proffered basket as the woman spoke up. “Elania, thanks, we appreciate it.” She would say as Shinji set the basket down. “Heads up” Shinji would say as a group of people appeared on the road in the distance. The blonde haired woman would turn back as a guard appeared next to them as well looking at a spot in the ground.

Calis would turn to the man with an eyebrow raised, he hadn’t noticed either of the two call for him, but the man was looking at the ground in confusion. “Something wrong?” Calis asked, his voice curious before the man’s eyes snapped up to his. “Do you know earth release?” He asked, causing Calis to blink and nod. The man was higher ranked them him, he had to be. Calis was the bottom of the totem pole rank rise as a simple genin, so that meant he listened to others, not ordered them. “Can you use an Earth Jutsu to excavate here, see what’s down there, and then return the earth to it’s normal state?” The man would ask, prompting Calis to nod before he turned toward the spot and clapped both hands upon the ground. The earth rose to his call, rising up and revealing, a body. “What the hell?!” Calis called as he stood and dashed toward the young man that had risen with the earth. He carefully pulled the individuals limp form from the earth. Long black hair, pale skin, and utterly unconscious. He pulled him away from the rocks and gently set him aside before clapping his hands onto the ground again and restoring the earth to it’s original position. “I just came on shift and used my sensory jutsu to get a feel for those people down the road. I felt this guy by complete accident.” The guard said as Calis checked the pulse of the teen. “He’s alive, I’m taking him to a hospital.” He said before picking the unconscious form of Akihiro up and taking him into the village.

Extricating Akihiro from the ground and taking him into Kirigakure, I have Xur's permission to use one of Kiri's NPC for the task of sensing his location.

Green-faced and wobbly, Irui's departure from the ship was less than graceful. He stumbled down the gang-plank, half clutching his bag and the other clamped over his face. With tangled feet he staggered over to the nearest trash can and heaved. With his lunch went his desire to ever set across the high seas again.

"That was horrible...." He muttered and pulled his shaking body away from the wastebin. Immediately, the tall gates of the Hidden Mist towered over him, battered and scorched from recent attacks. It was a sight like no other, a true military installation, bristling with weaponry and actively manned by Shinobi. Other passengers filed off the boat, stepping around him, but all the boy could do was watch as dozens of ninja from across the continent milled about.

Ah right. He reflected. There was work to be done, in the name of the Church, for Lady Mora. He fished for his documents, and stepped through the checkpoint. Onto the exams!

Ready to tackle the exams, Shinsui strides up to the gate with his ID in hand. Showing it to the guard at the checkpoint he would proceed passed the gates and into the village proper itself. "Already, I suppose it's time to see how well I do here." He would think as he entered the village. The Chuunin Exams were a crucible of sorts for genin to test their mettle against one another. This was beside the point of it being the selection process for becoming a Chuunin in the first place. Those who went through the crucible and survived, either became Chuunin or not. Regardless they were changed, stronger, smarter, and more experienced after going through the process. Shinsui was a fresh genin, and he by all rights had no business here. However his body was durable, he knew he'd survive.

It was just a matter of keeping his mind intact to make use the experience and strength he'd gain here. He did not intend to let any of it go to waste. He would walk out of Kirigakure stronger than he had entered it, one way or another.

Zen left the ship with excitement racing through his veins, his doubts and anxiousness left behind him in the Land of Lightning. He was here to win and there was no one that he would allow to stand in his way. Gripping his bow in his left hand the boy, began his approach to the village hidden in the mist, this year's home for the chuunin exams. After what seemed like forever he finally made it through the gate and received his first glimpse of the hidden shinobi village, however now was not the time for site seeing, he needed to hurry over to the exams and get signed in.

Konami filled out the information for the two of them as they entered the village. The Twins were citizens of Kumogakure so even if their previous crimes were uncovered, Kiri would be hard pressed to prosecute them without causing a major international incident. Additionally, Konami had drafted a very lucrative business proposal that she had a feeling Kiri would be interested in.

Exit

Kimiko had escorted the first wave of Konoha's genin to the gates originally, and made sure they got through without any problems, but hadn't entered the village herself. She'd gone back to the boat and chilled out for a while, since she didn't really care to spend time in Kirigakure given what she knew.

After finding out that a Kaguya had assassinated Satomi Uchiha, Kimiko had gathered such hatred upon seeing the gates and villages that it was all she could do to not attack them on sight. That wouldn't be good for future plans to avenge the former Hokage and Clan Leader of the Uchiha, so she took the time to try and cool off, so she could go back and not cause any incidents.

It took several days, but the Uchiha Jounin was finally okay with it, and so headed to the gates. Wearing her usual outfit, which was a pair of short shorts, thigh high black socks, and combat boots for her bottoms, with a long sleeved black shirt, a green, short sleeved hoodie over that, and a flak jacket on top. Her headband hung at her neck where it usually did, and her bangs covered one of her eyes.

Strolling up to the gates, Kimiko was wordless. Seeing the Kirigakure guards filled her with rage, and it was all she could do to just go through the protocols as usual. Dogs of the military that had murdered her Kage, her Clan Leader, Satomi Uchiha. They'd all burn and pay for that. Soon. Soon.

As soon as Nariko had entered the gate, a 'messenger' requested her attention. A young woman, hardly anyone worth remembering. Only her pendant was of some interest as it stood out against the otherwise sober clothes she wore. A jade pendant bearing the kamon of the yokai, and the stamp of the Daitengu underneath. Symbols hardly known by outsiders but with sufficient political weight in Kumogakure to remain remembered.

"Message for Nariko.", she'd say, purposely making eye contact before she handed over a Sealed scroll. "Good tidings are found in the simplest of messages."

Once the message was handed over, she didn't hesitate to leave and disappear out of sight.

Mission Details:

Today was a special day for Inarie. For today Inarie gets to participate in a real mission that involves in real stakes. Quite excitement it was, but at the same time Inarie knew just like any other mission she has to focus. Even so, she wasn't the only one taking this mission. Rather it is going to be her sensei Yui, Miyu, and another that's from Kumogakure. All three were to meet at the gates for a debriefing.

Right now Inarie is garbed in her steel mail shirt with a simple shirt underneath. She had a leather belt with a hip pouch which contains her tools. Attached on the baldric at the hip is a chokuto. Albeit Inarie will admit that the chokuto is kind of pointless to keep around given her bloodline, but she never knows when she needs to make that quick draw that her bones can't react to. She wears soft leather pants and leather boots. Inarie's platinum long hair is pulled up into a fluffy tail as her piercing rose pink eyes scan around the area. Apparently this gate is cursed or something after sustaining major attack after another.
