Tayuya had just finished tieing her bandana in place, clothed in her ninja garb for the day, weapons and flute laid out for easy pick up once they finished the breakfast her mother had undoubtably prepared... She always went overboard with guests. Not that the Musical Genin minded too much. Distantly, she heard the knock on the door.
Mrs. Kaerin looked up from her cooking at the sound, thick red hair tied back in an unruly ponytail and sleeves rolled back from her flour soaked arms. Her day started early, and her meals were large for guests. She dusted off her arms, and walked over to the door opening it with the cautious welcome that everyone gave strange Sound Nin, not knowing whether it was good news or bad. Memories of the purges were oft fresh, especially in this home... "May I help you, Chuunin-san?"

The man looked at the woman as she opened the door. His eyes were dark. He took a quick look behind her then looked back at the woman. "Both Tayuya and Anei have been assigned to watch over the Sound's border today," The man began, "They are to report to Figeta village a half a mile away from the Sound's west border with the hour so itsd best they hurry," he said turning dissappering as he jumpped up tp leave.
Behind Mrs. Kaerin Anei stodd already ready the genin giving her a bow. "I thank you for dinner and a place to sleep last night," she said kindless her head rasing, "But it seems like I must go I'll wait outside for Tayuya-chan," she saiod with a smile as she exited the house waiting for Tayuya so they could do the job they were assigned to.

(Heh, final happy family smothering!)
Tayuya stood behind her mother, having ducked back to claim all her weaponry and tools upon hearing that it was a Sound Emisary, "Guess we'll have to miss breakfast, Mother. Duty calls." She smiled sadly, already walking forward towards the exit.
Mrs. Kaerin's expression wilted a little at the blunt statement, a wilting that ended as she rose back to her full impressive stature, "No one leaves my house hungry even if it's only rice balls for lunch. You wait there a second, young lady. This is hospitality..." And she rushed in to the kitchen, leaving the Musical Genin to stand there.
Tayuya frowned, torn between duty to her teamate and the certainty her Mother WOULD follow them to the border to give them the food if she left... "Mother, you don't have to..."
"I will do what I want for my child and her friend, no matter your position within this village," intoned the older woman, coming back with small cloth sack filled with a dozen fresh riceballs, "Now, share with your teamate and go on, now. Don't mind my worrying."
Tayuya gave her mother a quick hug before claiming the riceballs and exiting the house, sure to close the door behind her before looking up at Anei, deadpan. "My mother made us lunch. Let's frakking go..."

Anei waited outside no emotion on her face as she waited for her teammate to come. They had less then an hour to get to the edge of the sound. Though luckily for them the Land of Sound wasn't as big as other Lands such as the Land of Winds, Of the Land of Fire.
She then watched as Tayuya finally came out wit a small box. "Well thats nice of her," she said not knowing what else to say about it. She gave a small nod to her teammate beginning to head toward the village they were to report to before heading to the border.
(Think you can time skip Anei, and Tayuya in your next post and lets get Team Enishi started here as well)
A day had gone by and Team Enishi was still on the move. Most likely they were all just worn out, since they only had about two one hour breaks in their time of travel. He might have been excepting a bit much from them. But he knew his students could handle it. At the border of the Land of Sound, and the Land of Fire Enishi made a stop turning to his students.
"Alright we are officially in the Land of Sound," the Jonin began as he took off his headband. "Lets try to blend in as much as possible understand? Try not to use any ninja skills unless absolutely necessary," he said firmly hand out. "Now I want each of you to give me your headbands I'll be holding on to them until we leave, also we'll be going at a slower pace from here and on." Enishi finished waiting for his students to give him their headbands.

Hao continued to follow his sensei. The young genin out of breath, and tired from the entire day of nothing but running. The hell was wrong with Enishi not letting them take more breaks. OH well must have been part of the ninja life. He stopped as his sensei stopped and began listening closely to his words.
The young genin reached for his pocket taking out his headband. He didn't like wearing it anyway. For awhile he wondered why he had to give him their headbands. Why couldn't they just keep it hidden. Well not his problem he just needed to listen to Enishi for now. Hao handed the Jonin his headband waiting to go back on the move.

(Behold! The further adventure of Shinto the drone! And TIMESHIP Team Hanzo!)
Tayuya tree-hopped behind her teamate, the bagged rice balls banging against her hip with every leap. They had received orders to sweep west in a zig-zag pattern, keeping ears, eyes, and chakra senses open to all potential intruders... Her eyes shifted from side to side, clouding as she accidently brushed the coral flute at her side, a gift she hadn't had chance to experiment with yet... Didn't want to.
Hokori frowned, slightly winded but glad her chakra was holding at stable if low levels without her having to take the hated pill. Evil things that it would be so easy to get addicted to... No way she wanted that. Her fingers traced the headband round her neck, the Sand Genin sighing a little before untying it and handing it over to her teacher.
Shinto hesitated, white eyes narrowing before she pulled the headband off, and passing it to her Sensi. "I don't think this is going to work," she volunteered softly, the cursed mark of her Branch house obvious on her brow.

"Thats called being unprepaired in your case," Enishi replied to his Hyuuga student after her took off her headband reviling the branch family mark. The jonin reaching for a pokect of his Jonin jakect out coming out bandages. "Here wear this over your mark until we leave," the man said as he places them into her hands taking her headband along with Hao's, and Hokori's.
Anei continued jumpping tree branch to tree brach. Head shifting side to side so far sencing nothing. SHe stopped looking back at Tayuya, "Hey lets split up for a bit we'll regroup say in half an hour if one of us dosen't come back here that would mean there was an intruder and we know to go back up the other sound good?"

(Are you plotting WTFage, my friend? So can see a case of mistaken identity going on for a second...)
Tayuya didn't like the idea of spliting up, spliting was the tactic that had gotten each of her fellow Sound Five teamates killed getting that frakking prima donna back... Didn't frakking like it at all. Anei was right though. Hmmm. "Okay, let's split up, but just in case of trouble we each take a shadow clone of the other with us. shit happens, you pop the clone, and the other knows to get over there."
Hokori smirked inside at the Hyuuga as she wrapped the bandage around her head with disgruntled compliance. She looked at Sven and Enishi-Sensi sidelong, "Any idea how far into Sound we have to go to get whatever Sven-San requires, Juunin Enishi-Sensi." Her tone was a little softer on the mention of the client's name, the Sand Genin gradually being convinced to the good nature of the 'retired champion' and feeling ashamed for her, in retrospect, rudeness.

(damn you figured me out ah well)
Sven smiled as he heard the tone of Hokori's voice as she mentioned him kind of happy that she didn't dislike him. Though he could have said the same about their respect for their sensei. The guy really needed to loosen up a bit the genin were only children.
Enishi watched as Shinto put on the bandages his eyes shifting toward Hokori as she asked how far they were. "We are about an hour away I will be going on ahead so I will meat you there I expect you all to not only listen to Sven, but protect him with your lives for that is your mission," he said to her giving a glance toward Sven and his students. Then disappeared in an instant.
Anei nodded her head at her teammate. The resurrected genin then made a simple hand signal focusing her chakra creating a shadow clone of herself to go with Tayuya. Anei waiting for Tayuya to do the same.

Hao said nothing waiting for the talking to stop so they could moive on. A bit of an odd look going on his face as Enishi mentioned that he was going to be going on ahead and that they had to protect Sven with their lives. Why the hell did people even want to do such missions?
Hao then looked toward Sven asking him, So what are we doing now?

Tayuya created her clone, mentally directing it to follow Anei and not resist her attacks, conserve all chakra by doing taijutsu if needed... simple programing done, she smiled at her teamate, jumping off with the expectation Aeni's clone would follow. Frakking good luck.
Hokori shrugged at her teamate, feeling a little naked without her headband. Just what they needed. Another sadistic test in a land sworn to wipe Konoha from the map. Her expression revealed none of this, looking to the client, after all, it was his fetch quest.

Sven looked at the three genin, feeling a bit odd that his life was place in the hand of children about his children's age. "Well we're going to the same place your sensei went to," Sven began looking up for a sec then looking back at them, "But at a much slower pace," he continued giving a warming smile as he turned and started heading out in a walking pace. "So since it will be awhile until we get there why don't you three tell me about yourselves? You don;t have to if you don't want, but it would be better than just walking without talking right?" he said with a chuckle seeing if there were going to be any volunteers.
Anei watched as Tayuya created a clone. Anei giving a glance at her. The clone already knowing what she had to do. Without saying a word she headed the opposite way of where Tayuya went to see if there was anything.

(Whee to cinematic story weaving! Let's see, three Genin and one retired champion vs two curse-equiped Genin... Let's hold off the WTFage for a post or two, and...)
Shinto, feeling ridiculous with the bandaging wrapped her head to cover the Cursed Mark on her forehead, didn't volunteer much, activating the Byakugan in order to pick out any potential incoming human targets despite the cover of tree and leaf. Even HER Hyuga sight was enough to spot potential ambushers... She took up point, occasionally shaking her head to move the irratating blindspot at the back of her head. Just get it over with.
Hokori was less retiscent, even if she kept her ears open for every threat as she took up tail-end charlie duty, "I moved to Konoha four years ago after Gaara killed my twin sister, trained in Sand Jutsus, and recently passed the academy before being assigned to Juunin Enishi-Sensei. Not too good with people really."
Tayuya hopped from three to tree, the large purple bow at the back of her uniform snapping with her motion. She kept every sense open as possible, brown eyes scanning for the smallest flash of off color, ears waiting to pick up the single snapped trig or loud speech. Did not frakkign like the idea of splitting up... The reassuring mirror of Anei's clone was no comfort at all.

Sven looked back noticing that the Hyuuga had her bloodline activated. Obviously she didn't want to speak. Though he had no problem with it His attention went toward Hokori as she spoke a look of sympathy going on his face as he heard her story.
"I'm sorry to hear that about your sister," he said to her then looked forward. "Do you plan on taking jinchu a pond this Gaara?" the man asked curious if Hokori would do just a thing.
(it should all be entertaining ;D)

"Taking Jinchu apond, Sven-san?" questioned the Sand Genin softly, unfamilar with the term, "I don't..."
Shinto shushed her teamate, the flickering chakra light of two fast moving forms having just entered the sphere of her Byakugan. One of the shapes was... vaguely familar to the Hyuga, almost identical to the coil pattern of her other female teamate. She'd expect that from a sibling, maybe, more likely a clone or twin... "Incoming guests," she breathed, scanning around her for more Nin.
Tayuya slowed to a halt, the clone matching speeds as she spotted the quartet of walkers from the corner of her eye. One of them at the back of the file made her raise an eyebrow, hands darting for a kunai and her flute. What would Anei be doing with these strangers without contacting her? Changed her clothing and hair style? Asociate with a... Hyuga. Konoha Nin. Frakk. First level it was then.
Hokori had enough warning to spot the red-haired Sound kunochi, see the other kunochi land behind the first. The second was... identical to her save for garb and hair, a sword at her waist. What the...? It couldn't be. Her sister alive and working as a Nin in Sound? Impossbile... She was robbed of further disjointed thought when the red head stabbed the doppleganger, popping what was inretrospect a shadow clone as angular branching lines exploded over her face, a flute in her other hand.
(Go time.)
