Taking a stroll

It was time and Youka was on the borders waiting for his friend Maku to join him, they had some things to talk about before going forward.

Maku saw Youka standing outside the gates.  He had left a note for Tori before his departure, explaining he had to leave, but would be back shortly for her.  Walking up to Youka he looked at his friend, oddly Maku felt no need for jokes or foolish banter, but instead looked ahead, "So, what'd Echo say, and I assume it was something good or we wouldn't be standing here."

Youka wanted Maku to take everything he said very seriously at this point, on his back layed the shield and once again he willed it to turn back to its armor mode as it covered his whole body as it always did, its grey shine showing off they different markings and touches of expertise that was put into making this armor. "Brother today we are marching for occupancy, and indeed it will be a glorious day in battle for us". He looks down at Maku as his form has grown an extra foot to see if the man is taking everything he is saying.

"Outside of Iwa we do not use Echo's name if anyone asks who we are doing this for we will say Kuushou the burning sky, and that's if we decide to answer at all, if anything gets too serious we are to fall back and call for back up, Echo has one of my chokers as well so we can contact him as well should anything need to be said". Youka would say all of this over the mark Hika had given them so to anyone looking it would be two men staring at each other while one had armor surround him. "Do you have any questions"

Maku listened closely, a false name eh, well that seemed normal after all Maku gave out a fake name as well.  He continued listening to Youka, everything he heard made since, and he really didn't have any questions.  He had longer for action, power, and respect.  This was his opportunity for all of those things.  He had originally dreamed of bring Takigakure into the big 5, but a lack of authority had led him away from this goal, and now he had found a leader who he truly respected above anyone else.  Still looking into the horizon, Maku answered his best friend.

"No questions, but instead a statement.  Watch my back, and I will watch yours, lets not drag this out into a dog fight, quick and easy is the order of the day.  Lets do this."  With that, he would walk out of the village with his friend, completely wiping his chakra signature with his suppression ability.

Youka put on his helmet and it latched down to the suit "Indeed brother.....Indeed"
