The main Gate that marks the entrance to Konoha. Marked with a giant chracter for "Fire". Huge wooden structure that seems impossible to scale.

Jion flashed through the many streets, and minutes later he reached the FIre Gate. His heart was throbbing with many different emotions... part of him feared that he would let them all down, part of him felt excited and anxious, but most of all... he felt doubt. Doubt about himself...
Yeah, the others would probably do better than him... All he could do was healing and support them from behind... He felt so useless. He stood under the gate, waiting for the others as his thoughts trailed away.

Minako approached the gate, carrying a backpack filled with her assentials, mainly a few tins of tea, food, and a blanket in case they slept out side. As Minako reached the large gate she saw Jion had beaten her. "Jion! Over here!" She called, rushing forward. She slowed down a bit, she could see the overcast look in his eye. 'Whats up with him, he hasn't been acting like himself lately.' Minako thought. Once Minako reached Jion, she looked him straight in the eye and asked, "Is something wrong Jion? You've been acting funny ever since this morning."

Kaji rested atop the Huge wooden gate, and upon hearnig his students, lept down to greet them. He landed softly in front of them, smiling...but still with a semi-serious look in his eye. "Kazuma...I should have guessed he would be late for such a thing."
Kaji looked up at the azure sky, gazing at the Cloud formations. "Are you two ready?" Kaji asked, knowing they were prepared physically, it was mentally that was the major problem.

"Oh, Minako..." He heard the female voice. "Sorry, I was just thinking anout something." And he portrait a fake smile to her that even the amateurs could easily see through. "Yeah... just something." Then, Kaji landed in front of them. He turned his attention to him and his complain about Kaji.
"I think so..." He muttered. At least he prepared everything. Pills, food, weapons, everything. If something were to happen... At least he would be prepared for it. I hope.

'That look may fool a child but it doesn't fool me.' Minako thought, 'I'll ask him later though, nows not the time.' She shook her head.
Turning to Kaji who had leapt down from his spot. Trying to sound confident she said, "Yes sensei I'm ready." Looking around she added. "We should wait for Kazuma though."

Kazuma was in side Kakashi's house thankful that it was small and he didn't have to move all over the place to get everything he needed food, weapons, and he made sure to get a couple soldier pills as well. He put them all with in a bag of his then opened to the door just to fall back from running into Kakashi, "Bye Kakashi-sensei I have to go important mission," he stated as he got up and was about to run pass him until Kakashi grabbed his neck-less and vest.
"Just wait a sec you're not leaving without this," Kakashi stated as he pulled out a scroll
"What do I need that for?"
Kakashi showed Kazuma the symbol that was on the scroll, "This is the symbol of your clan this scroll contains information about them and everything read it was you get the chance you might fine a way to control your other side when you get your other power," Kakashi told him as he handed Kazuma the scroll the demon giving a small smile happy that there was a chance for him to control his demon side
"Thanks Kakashi-sensei," he said quickly as he then felt already two minutes late. "Man I'm going to get in trouble for this," he thought to himself as he ran to the gate of the village. Usually he didn't care about being late, but for a mission like this he knew he didn't have time to waste.
After about three minutes Kazuma finally arrived at the gates of Kohona breathing a bit hard thank to him rushing to get over here, but after seeing that he was the last one to arrive he felt a little disappointed in himself for not making it on time for the mission. Kazuma bowed his head toward his sensei and teammates, "I'm sorry for being late didn't mean to, but I kind of got held up," he stated hoping they wouldn't min all to much.

Minako shook her head and sighed. "Good, you're here, we can go now." Minako didn't have to remind herself how dangerous but important this mission would be, but she couldn't get herself worked up. Turning to the ramen sensei she added, "So who carries the scroll first?"

A confused look on Kazuma's face as Minako asked who was going to carry the scroll first. "What do you mean who is going to carry the scroll first?" Kazuma asked he had just gotten there and he didn't know what they were going to be doing.

"I'll let Jion carry it first, it's safer for you three to carry it now that we're still in Konoha. He winked at Jion, knowing he wasn't confident...and trying to force in into believing in himself. "I know you can do it...besides, your protected by us."
"I know you all are wondering why I would take you three on this highly important mission, instead of a more capable ANBU squad." Kaji paused, staring at his students. "After much arguement from Tsunade-sama, and the council they agreed to my decision. I've taking you because...I know you can do it, it's a test...to see how capable you are."

Kazuma was still confused he arrived late and no one was telling him what exsactly they were going to do and it ticked him off oh well nothing he could do about it. He started listening to Kaji hearing that Jion was going to hold onto the scroll. The demon continued to litsen about why they were doing this intsead of ANBU he still didn't really get why they were doing this even after Kaji's explanation. "So are we going yet?" Kazuma asked his sensei want to go already.

Kaji glared at Crimson eye at Kazuma. "Do you realize the importance of this mission?..." Kaji paused, thinking if his anger was misplace. "I'm trusting you with this...it's wrong coming here with anger in your heart.This isn't the time for emotions...Shinobi must clear there minds and hearts from all emotion, especially when granted with an opportunity to proove your worth as a ninja. Kaji paused, his eyes lightening. "I would of thought you of all people would understand this."
Kaji placed the Scroll in Jions hands, placing a firm hand on his shoulder, and looking into his eyes. "Jion...Clear your mind...of all misconceptions of faith in yourself. Your just as skilled as anyone here, and by far one of the best Genin I've come to know."
He turned his head until he was facing all three of his Genin. "In fact, all three of you are the best students I've ever had...that's why I'm taking you with me, a chance to proove yourself to the rest of Konoha that your ready...for the Chuunin exams."
Turning around, he took a step towards the forest, away from Konoha. "We now make our way to sand...to unite our countries...and to obtain a sense of peace."

Minako never heard Kaji sound so serious. Minako understood that the pressure was on and it would be a difficult journey, but making the situation worse by putting more pressure on wasn't making it easier on the Genin. Minako couldn't help but feel a bit dishearted.
As Kaji continued to talk, Minako blushed a bit at his praise. 'Ready for the Chuunin exams? We have hardly begun training yet!' Minako thought. Now she started to feel overwhelmed. This heavy burden placed on there shoulders, and also having to prove themselves as worthy shinobi to the entire village at such a young age. Minako started to waver a little. She felt dizzy, like if she fell the entire world would fall with her. Minako tried to shake these feelings off best she could, but a little fraction stuck to her.
Minako took a deep breath. 'Okay here we go.' Minako thought.

Kaji lept onto a tree branch, maintaining a position at the front of the squad. He glanced at Kazuma, feeling a bit ashamed at himself for bursting out like that. "Kazuma...I have to say, I'm sorry for bursting out like that. It seems that amid all my faith in you...I've forgotten that your still just kids." He stopped, the gate still in site, and patted Kazuma's head, smiling at him.
"I don't blame you for anything...It's just...ever since my injury I've taken extreme caution in missions." He thought back, almost losing himself in thought, but quickly threw himself back into reality. "I know I'm normally laid back...but it seems my lack of seriousness makes up for itself during missions."
He glanced back at his Genin, nodding at them. "It changes nothing however about the importance of the mission. I'm going back on my word as a shinobi, letting my emotions get in the way of a mission...I just wanted to make my point across, for I've realized that you all are still just twelve years old." He drew his Katana, a metallic scrape ringing out, and his eyes narrowing focussing on the mission. "Now lets deliver that document."
