Is that a statue?

It's pretty simple for one such as Echo to make a beeline for villages, it used to be easier..He'll have to relearn his flight ability but for now? He's fucking hoofing it, to be fair he runs pretty damn fast and covers distances most would take days to in about an hour. Surprisingly Kozai is keeping up as well, and seems to be following his path relatively well...One of which he leaped over a waterfall..Which was really pretty by the way, hopefully the Kiru kid doesn't barf or something..
Speeding up further Echo soon spies the gates of Kumogakure and speeds towards them before slowly coming to a stop, he raises his free hand and idly swipes some sweat from his brow setting the most likely disoriented Snow Shinobi down and glancing backwards towards Kozai, Echo gestures with his head and begins walking through the gates of Kumo...Anyone with any amount of skill worth talking about will most likely come running, his chakra signature is like lighting up a flare in a dark room. He doesn't wait though, he's walking right in, those who are concerned can talk and follow him...

'Halt, who goes there!?' Is something he tends to ignore on principle alone.

Kiru, glad to finally be set down, sighs. "I hope he is actually here.. would be really bad if we had to make a run to Konoha.."
Even with it being one of the more famous villages, Kiru had little idea of where the village in the leafs even was, so he hoped his first guess turned out to be right. Kiru realized that Echo likely had no idea who Laz was, but figured the man was smart enough to look for a Yuki headband. For his part, the boy made sure all his items were in order, including the pieces to a large fan he was building. Once he was set, he caught up to where Echo was walking, waiting to be noticed by a guard or someone of the like.

Kozai frowned as they walked through the gates. Echo haddnt told him that they were looking for someone.Wel then, that aside, this village was impressive indeed. It was much larger than Iwa, leading him to believe that it was more populous as well. Echo must have connections here, of that Kozai was almost certain.Now, to inquire as to the nature of their visit...
"Hm, who is this 'he' we're looking for? If he is indeed dead, I would much like to perform an autopsy... having such information is useful, you know." This would be directed mainly at Echo. He would keep pace with the man, being sure not to fall behind or get too far ahead, but always staying at the man's left side.
"What kind of friends might you have here, Lord Echo?"

Echo's head turns more then a tourists in the middle of Konoha square, looking for...anyone to react to him being inside the village...He turns his gaze towards a guard, and arches an eyebrow curiously..
The Guard shrugs in response and seems to wave him in...
It takes all of Echo's willpower not to murder this man...Echo sighs and nods "We're lookin' for one of ours Kozai, if anything you'll be trying to keep him alive." He says with a small click of his tongue "I've got friends everywhere Kozai, nowhere is out of my reach...Ears, eyes and daggers travel pretty far for me." He says cryptically, while in truth he has a niece here and his buddy Kurisu...Also his friend that managed to drop him off in Takigakure and taught him about Haki.

These things said, Echo makes a casual walk towards the Raikage building "Come on, better ask the head honcho about it." Echo says gesturing for the two to follow him.

[Possible exit.]

Kiru simply followed the two men, nodding his head. He was concerned for his student, and felt like he recognized the man that had invited himself along. Kiru decided he'd likely figure it out eventually, and settled on simply following close behind as he entered the city.

EXIT

Kozai grinned as he followed Echo. Meeting a leader... that meant new information to be collected, new data to be tested. This meant, also, that he should be on his guard, and probably let Echo do all the talking.If these were Echo's friends rather than his suboordinates, then he should say in the background, watching and waiting. He took a quick glance at the Yuki nin... what kind of DNA might he have? Perhaps he should ask Echo for this boy later...
