Lion in Suna.[Open to Suna nin.]

Minoru had been lost for words. He was in pure bliss at being acknowledged by two other ninja, both of whom outranked him by a longshot. They were some of the kindest words a boy like Minoru could have received and he was deeply satisfied that others could understand what his true intentions were and see that he did in fact have potential as a fledgling ninja.

"T-thank you, Miste-... no Sir Arthur," Minoru would say while giving a slight bow his face slightly reddened. It was unusual for Minoru to act this way, but those words had quite the effect on him.

Minoru then listened as Xuro would describe the current state of the ninja world. Minoru agreed with everything the man said and he was happy to know there were men like him and Sir Arthur (Minoru thought Sir would fit a man of his knightly stature). He then became intrigued as he mentioned an organization run by him and his brother, who really wasn't in the biological sense. This group would explain his deviating clothing. Apparently he wanted to use this organization to make a positive difference in the world, as if to atone for the past wrong-doings he spoke about. He heard as Xuro explains that the group exists to protect their comrades in the village. All Minoru could ever ask for was to be able to protect those he cared about so he questioned the man.

"An Organization within the village? May I please ask for more details on this group? If your cause is truly just and seeks the right things in this world I will grant you my utter support. All I wish is to become a strong shinobi who can live in a village without learning of his old childhood friends getting kidnapped or worse....dying. To that end I must become stronger, I have no other choice." Once again the 'flame' Sir Pendragon spoke about earlier would appear to rise, emanating from the boys entire being. He meant every word he said, Minoru wasn't the type to be controlled by his surroundings. He would do anything he could to make the world how he wanted to see it.

Arthur tilts his head back and laughs in a hearty manner the sound rather uplifting to most who would hear it...this must be what having A+ Charisma means..wait what never mind.
Arthur grins at the two shinobi before him, such a nice change of pace most Shinobi in Tengakure have lost hope, he finds most of them pessimistic save for a few key shinobi.

The Tengake Shinji is currently on his list of truly inspiring individuals along with a Kni-..err Shinobu he met long ago back when the borders of Fire and Sky were separate..he ponders what happened to that Shinobi? The Yamaki clans Navi the Swift.
Arthur speaks once more "I hope your organization brings the justice we seek to this land." He states with a smile as they find the Inn they were searching for.

The three now reaching the inn, Xuro would speak to Arthur from Tengakure "Yes thank you Arthur-sama. I hope so too..." He would then tell Minoru just before opening the door of the Inn, "Very Well Minoru. I shall tell you more about our organisation. Let us first get our friend from Tengakure sorted into a room in this nice looking Inn."

Xuro would open the door and walk up to the reception desk. A female receptionist stood on the other side of the desk. She was a bit of an elderly woman. Someone Xuro might have seen now and then in Sunagakure. She seemed a very jolly old lady. "Hi there! How may I help you?" she said politely with a smile on her face. By her voice and introduction she sounded very friendly.

"Yes Hello there. I'm Xuro Bakuton, Jounin of Sunagakure. I have escorted a Jounin level shinobi from the land of Skyscrapers, Tengakure, into Suna and led him to his Inn. He's looking for a place to chill out for his stay in Suna, if you know what I mean... Well what ya got to offer??" Xuro would reply to the old lady with a grin on his face. The inn looked a very cosy and comfortable place. He hoped Arthur would find it appropriate...

[Gonna go ahead and post again since it's been two days.]
Arthur is still smiling as the Suna shinobi converse about their organization, it's good to know other just individuals exist, the thought fills his soul with joy such a great Village Sunagakure is...even if it is in the middle of a desert.
Arthur nods when he's introduced to the Inn keeper, his smile drops and he blinks owlishly when the Jounin states 'If you know what I mean' and then asks what the kindly looking woman has to offer.
What does THAT mean!? He questions in his mind while schooling his features into a smile that looks more sheepish then anything.

He hopes this hotel isn't for anything vulgar, he has morals to follow, surely it can't be THAT kind of hotel....Oh by the Root please let it be not THAT kind of hotel....
The Knight's left eye twitches and his shoulders sag at this thought, hoping against all hope that this is all a misunderstanding of the Jounin's words.

The old lady replied, "Well currently we have a few two-sleeper rooms as well as i think there's a three-sleeper room as well. There's services here such as meals just a dial away, television, radio, we have all the standards services a lot bettter than the other Inns around here..'

XUro would then look at Arthur and ask him, "Well Mr. Arthur what would you prefer. I Dont know if that othe ninja you mentioned will be coming here too, so tell the nice lady what room you would prefer."

[And another 48 hour... =w=]

Arthur hums in thought at the question his arms crossing over his chest before he glances up and straightens his posture looking more regal before he states "I shall require a two bedroom lodging, my charge should be here soon." He states calmly with a nod "We'll be leaving as soon as I can give him his" He pauses once before sighing and putting on another weak smile "His candy.." He speaks, his tone still filled with slight confusion and exasperation at the boys need for such a treat..

What a strange thing, however the boy seemed rather dim...he doesn't think the boy would try and trick him, Arthur also remembers his charges strange looking friend who Arthur presumes he was courting...should he tell Habee that his charge is with a resident of Sunagakure?
His face betrays none of this as he awaits an answer, his thoughts not showing in his eyes or posture, merely the sheepish smile that comes from such a strange reason for traveling..

Xuro nodded to the old lady and she begin filling out the paper work. Xuro was kind of confused by what Arthur said, "Candy?? What you mean by that?" He said raising his eye brow

They had finally arrived at the hotel, and Minoru was quite satisfied with the choice. The place was run by a kindly old lady, who Minoru was used to seeing around the village many times. Minoru would smile and bow respectfully at the elder, and listen as Sir Arthur would begin to be assigned his lodgings, which were two rooms: one for him and another for his 'charge'.

Minoru would definitely like to meet this important person whom such a grandiose person like Sir Arthur would go out of his way to satisfy....which candy. It was apparent Mr. Xuro had his concerns as well, but Minoru thought he already fulfilled his purpose for being here earlier by buying him pop-rock candy. Was there more to it than that?

"Excuse me Sir Arthur, will your charge be here soon? No rush, I'm just concerned if maybe since he is all the way from Tenga as well....could he be lost in the village?" Minoru was quite worried what with the late occurrences in the village against the weaker citizens and even tourist might be up for grabs.

Arthur blinks and Xuro's question, the man accompanied him to acquire the candy and he's asking what he means by that? Very curious, however Arthur merely reaches into the pocket of his tunic with his left hand and shows off the bag of suna pop-rocks...
The young Genin also brings up a good point, causing Arthur to frown in thought "Perhaps..." He states as he slides the bag away "He is of Genin rank, he should be obvious enough, I'm sure reports will come through if he is lost." He states "With Shinobi like Xuro and even yourself in Suna young one, I doubt my charge will be in any danger...it might stand to reason I've been ditched however.." He states his tone turning sour and his eyes narrowing his left eyebrow ticking in annoyance at the thought. "In which case....their will be disciplinary actions awaiting the young Genin that ignored the order of a superior officer." he states while, quite comically a black aura forms over him, it's completely imaginary of course but one could almost see the black mass forming into the shape of a Lion growling and baring it's fangs in a vaguely threatening manner.

Xuro slapped his face out of stupidity. He realised now that Arthur was talking about the candy they had earlier. He thought candy was some what of a coded word or something. He would listen to Minoru ask Arthur about the "charge" he was talking about and when it would arrive. He was curious about Arthur's charge and he suddenly getting frustrated. He didn't see Arthur act like that before. It probably ticked him off. Xuro would then reply to Arthur, "Ah haha don't get upset! He'll probably come around. He just maybe falling behind or something. Don't stress about it!" Xuro woul then look at the time, "Ah crap! I've gotta go take care of some important business! Well Mr Arthur I hope this hotel sees you fit. Enjoy your stay and I'll see you around then. And you too Minoru. I hope to maybe train with you sometime haha! We'll see ya guys around then!" Xuro would then walk out of the hotel and wave goodbye at the two as he then carried on walking down on the many streets of Sunagakure.


Xuro would see his soul amethyst pendant glowing. He wondered maybe it was time. He had it worn for quite a while come to think of it. Probably it had completed it's bonding. It was now ready to create the artificial body of Xuro. He would then go find a quite place where he can get started on making the artificial body....
