Hi alll again!!!

Mitsui would walk to the village gates of fire country. He knew full well, that he was known as a missing nin, because Yensung said he was a while ago. Mitsui would wonder what would happen this time when he would go in. The last few times, he had managed to meet some people there, lets see what would happen now. Mitsui would watch his chakra sensory, and would also have his byakugan activated in case someone would sneak up to him. Mitsui would walk towards the gates unless someone decided to stop him, and if nobody did, then he would walk through the gates. Mitsui would wonder, would he need his soul amethyst again? Mitsui knew what happened in Ame. Mitsui would be coming here to find out what happened to Kozai.

(village entry in 24 hours unless stopped)

Mako was doing his rounds, after recently being promoted to genin within the village.  He chomped on a cigarette and smoked it heavily using his steady stream of chain smoking to track the hours. Gate duty, blah. The most boring duty to be had.  He wondered if anything would happen today.  That is until he sensed a presence.  Seemingly sinister,  He would walk stand up from where he was sitting atop the gates to peer out and look for whatever this odd chakra was.  It was then he saw Mitsui in the distance and briefly remembering the image as a missing Nin in the bingo book he began closing the gates until someone of higher authority would come down and allow the entrance.  The gates closed quickly and if there was a way to activate an alarm to the comms array Mako would then use it to alert the Jounin and other chuunin

And so it was, that the raven haired manliest ninja in Konoha happened to find her self within the area at the time that the gates began to close. Why were they open in the first place? Kind of a hazard really, but oh well, time to check it the fuck out.

Risako made her way to the top of the gate alongside Mako, where a little stare down was going on it seemed. Before the man would try and come in the gates, Risako would shout out, "The village isn't accepting visitors at the moment. We ask that you try again later." Really the gate shouldn't have been open in the first place, like wtf.

Mitsui would stop at 10 feet from the gates, since Mako did not stop that from happening. Mitsui was pretty pissed that they decided to slam the door on him. It was quite clear, that the village is quite a recluse, and that people are literally trying to make life hard for him. When Mitsui would get there, he would say, "Come down here and talk." Mitsui would then wait to see what would come out. Mitsui would wait for them to come down. If not, he would think about what to do. It seemed quite weird that he would get something like that. Yes these gates were meant to stop normal people from going in, but Mitsui was not normal. Mitsui would look around. Hopefully, there was no booby traps or such.

Jason was checking on the gate guards when it happened. He had taken to checking the village gates every once in a while to make sure things were going smoothly. He had grown tired of his ninja letting in people like Coco and Kozai. That was why he was in the area when the gates began to close. Frowning, Jason made his way to where Mako was staring at Mitsui. Jason recognized Mitsui right off the bat from that mission so long ago. He wondered what the missing nin was doing here. When Mitsui had told Mako to come down and talk Jason would simply hold his hand out to gesture for Mako to stay put, Risako too who was apparently in the area as well. Jason would then jump down from the gates and land softly on the ground about 7 feet in front of Mitsui.

"It's been a long time. Tell me, what brings you to Konoha? Sorry about the gates closing on you by the way. I've had enough of my ninja letting in people to the village without enough of a background check. Certain things have happened to put the village on edge a bit. I'm sure we can simply talk this out and if you mean no harm to the village I don't see why we couldn't let you in."

Ling was wrapped around Jason like a backpack, and Hiru was wrapped around Ling like a back pack. Her blue eyes were staring into Mits. Her mouth was wrapped around the top of Jason's head and gently nomming on his skull. Because this was now their relationship and there was nothing he could do about it. She'd been here all morning and he just seemed content with just ignoring her, which was fine with her.

Jason said he'd been doing some checks because people just let that cloud ninja in. Which was funny because she didn't remember her doing anything to make him mad. He was a funny Hokage sometimes!

Anyway....

MAko breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the Hokage appear before him he would bow and step back. Then as Jason moved down to face Mitsui, Mako would motion toward Risako informing her to be prepared for anything and to keep her eyes on him.  Mako felt much safer with the Hokage there but not enough to not be prepared for the worst. He watched from an angle to where he could see Jason and Mits while also being within eye shot of Risako.  The last thing he wanted to happen was to watch his Lord Hokage slain before him without a backup plan.  He watched the conversation closely and honed his hearing on it.

Risako stayed where she was at, placing her hand on the katana strapped to her hip. She wouldn't draw it, no need to yet, but it could prove useful to be prepared. She gazed down at the scene, taking in the intense moment of the stand off.

Was that girl noming on shit lord? She doubled over laughing, a few tears falling from her silvery eyes. Good thing there was a small wall on top of the gate, or someone might be able to catch her unawares.

Mitsui would look at this arrangement of ninja. There were 2 people at the top, there was this person, who Mitsui assumed was the hokage because of the way he was with other nin. Mitsui determined, that if he needed to fight, it would be totally fine, but he decided to ask about Kozai, especially since the man in front of Mitsui (Jason) seemed knowledgeable. Mitsui would ask, "What happened to Kozai? He here? I would prefer if you told me the truth on this." Mitsui would watch for any movement. Mitsui would be ready for a fight still. Also, wtf was this girl doing on that guy? Mitsui wondered, it seemed like the most ridiculous thing. It seemed, that since that girl was nomming on that boy's skull, it seemed quite apparent, that the guy would be having a deadly infection soon enough. Surely if that was true, the man would be screaming in pain, rather than just standing there like that. Mitsui could tell if one was lying, by way of watching the body motions with experienced fighter, because when a lie is told, muscles tense up. After he answers, Mitsui would ask, "What are your names?" Mitsui of course, would still be pissed off. (That is scientifically proven, if you don't think it is, look it up before voiding me.)

(uh why would i void you? That would be pointless)


Jason's head was quite itchy with Ling nomming on top of him all morning. He had just been ignoring her up until now and decided to continue to do so. Mitsui had asked Jason where Kozai was and what had happened to him. Jason wondered if Mitsui was an associate of his. If that was the case then perhaps he was more dangerous than he appeared. Either way it was probably best to answer his question about Kozai truthfully. Maybe if he got the information that he wanted he would leave in peace. "Kozai Yuki. To be perfectly honest we had an arrangement, he and I but I decided that it was not in Konoha's best interest. Because of that we had to ask him to leave Konoha. I don't know where he is now but he isn't within the village. Why are you looking for him? My name is Jason by the way. The girl latched onto my head is Lingqi."
