Squealing Pig, Flying Wombat (Roy)

MISSION:

Loud knock coming from the front door of the house. Sounded as if it was something urgent. Hearing a loud bang twice every second. The sound annoyed Kyson, but he assumes something must either bee wrong or someone must tell important information. As the sun was just getting ready rise, Kyson would get up from his bed and wipe his face. He leaves his room calmly and begins to walk downstairs to answer the door. As he answered, he saw a familiar Jounin exams. Kyson felt like he was a shinobi with a superior rank. But now.. they are on the same level. Kyson wasn’t used to being Jounin yet. He still feels like a Chunnin still. But being Jounin just means bigger responsibilities. Kyson looked the shinobi in the eyes and spoke.
 
“What’s up?” Kyson would say to the man with an exhausted face.
 
“Sorry to interrupt you Kyson, but we have a huge problem.” The jounin shinobi would say in a serious tone. He had a report in his hand ready to give to us/.
 
“Guess my first day of the job starting early…” Kyson would say as he wipes his eyes from just waking up. Waiting for the man to tell him details, Kyson begins to do a mini morning stretch. He thought he would get a good rest after the exams, but maybe its true when they say shinobi’s can’t take a day off.
 
“Welcome to being a jounin. Now for your mission, I’ll just cut to the chase and have you read the report to the specifics. But in a gist, some important information was stolen from a nation leader. Your job is to get it back. I have other business to attend to, so I’ll be on my way.” The Jounin said as he handed Kyson the report. As he was about to body flick off to lord knows where. Kyson interrupted him to ask one more question.
 
“So is this a solo?” Kyson would ask the shinobi.
 

“With a mission as serious as this, it would be your best bet to bring Royalty along..” The jounin would say as he body flicked off to lord knows where. Kyson would close the door as he began to read the report. Looking at the details, it was a lot more serious than he thought. When Koroshi ask for these shinobi to be killed, than this must be a serious mission. 

(WC: 405)

Two hundred and eighty-five, two hundred and eighty-six... The crack of dawn was certainly upon this part of the world. The sky just barely being lit up as solar rays were beginning to get a grasp onto the planet. Royalty had not slept the night before. Many things was on his mind after the conclusion of a long awaited exams. Like he, Kyson too arose through the adversity and became honored to ascend in the ninja rankings. Roy got to meet many konoha ninja with exceptional talents. The people he came across were gifted and seemed to be working hard for their opportunity to attend the jounin exams. He knew that he had to work harder. 

Three hundred and seventy-two, three hundred and seventy-three... Royalty was surface walking upside down from the branch of a tree that had been around 14 feet from off of the ground. While in his positioning, he hard both of his palms over the back of his head layered over another. Every second or so, Royalty would do a curl up until his body matched a 45 degree angle. Sweat dripped down onto the floor from his face. His breath was short but still manageable. A familiar chakra signature would be coming towards the training grounds which he had chosen to train. Front his position he could see a high ranking ninja under him extending out a paper. He spoke.


"Another mission I suppose?" Royalty was not at all too surprised. Considering their success upon only becoming Chuunin, he would guess that there weren't going to be any breaks anytime soon. 

"Indeed.. You and Kyson are to be given this task. This is quite important.." The ninja seemed assertive yet respectable. It wasn't his job to particularly give the orders now but more like relay the message. It felt weird being an equal. Royalty would finish his curl ups at around four hundred and twelve or so. His surface walking came to a halt as he maneuvered to grab his shirt and jacket that had been hanging over the branch before he landed on his feet. The note was handed to him followed by a brief bow and then a dash. The ninja was gone. Royalty opened the paper and viewed over the details. One thing in particular had grabbed his attention...

Mission Briefing: '...kill them and get the documents back before it is too late!' 

He didn't quit know what to make of it... This request coming from the Kazekage was most peculiar. 

(419)

Finished reading the report given by the jounin. Kyson begins to smirk a little, he really became a jounin. One of the top rank shinobi in the village. Which mean, his days of being a kid are just about done. Things will change from here on out and things will also be getting a lot busier. But nothing Kyson couldn’t handle. Upon walking up the stairs, Kyson would use chakra sensory to see if Royalty was in his room. As he sensed for a few seconds, he noticed his wasn’t picking up anything. Not here, huh? Wonder where he ran off to..
 
Kyson would begin to get ready, straighten up, and gather anything he needed for the mission. Weapons, items, etc… As Kyson was looking through his closet on what to wear. He had bought some new attire after receiving his rank up. He thought it was about time he wore some new clothing. His favorite black trench coat was getting too small, still wearable. But he thought a change would be best now. Wearing a top similar to his trench coat. Except, it was more like a long sleeve that went down to almost his knees. It was like a black long shirt combined with a trench coat. As he began to put on his new attire, Kyson took a look at his old trench coat and he just began to think. Everything from the time he reached genin, up until yesterday. All the moments.. the blood… the sweat… the tears. Everything Kyson had went through when wearing that jacket. It also reminded him of his old home… Kumo. Whether he likes to think about it now, it was still the place he was born. Where his mother made that jacket for Kyson from scratch. It was little big when he first wore it, but eventually grew into it. Now, that old thing is almost worn out and barely fit him.
 

But enough reminiscing, Kyson quickly got ready and began to head out. Wondering where Royalty was, it be a pain to try and find him through this entire village. With a mission this serious, he would assume Royalty got the message or at least heard about it from someone. Kyson wondered if he should wait or if he should assume he got the message and meet him by the gates. Ehhh, I’m pretty sure he got the message. Kyson thought as he began to walk from the house to the village gates. If he hadn't got the message, Kyson would be forced to go out and look for him after he reaches the gates.

(WC: 841)

Still unable to process the details of the mission at hand, Royalty chose to focus on other things. Things like what Kyson could be doing at this moment. It is no surprise that he too would of received the orders. The two of them were like Suna's special task force. A dual-blade of some sort that had their own little advantages. 

Royalty had moved the hair that had been over his right eye. It felt a little weird not having the long, silky hair that he donned for many years. He decided not to go too sure however. To be honest, it was really irritating to get used to. The Yuka had been in the moment once his status had moved up for the better. To others, it may have not been anything special, but to him it was a big deal. A drastic change like that in life would only beget more changes. Thus, it was time for a new look. On the bright side, he looked more like he did when he and Kyson had first met. 

The sun rays were about 90% of the way to fully reaching the earth. Birds making their usual sounds combined with a cool sense of serenity had calmed the land. Roy thought about going home and further preparing but he had already had all of his stuff that he needed for a successful journey. After all, he was currently at the training grounds. 

After gathering all of his belongings; which consisted of the shirt and jacket he had not been wearing while performing his curl ups and his ninja pouch, the boy....well, young man, would make his way towards the gates. Some distance had gone by. Barely anybody had been up. It was indeed still early. Many of the villagers were still recuperating from their partying that took place after watching an epic event. Royalty would see Kyson down the road. He picked up his pace to a slight jog so he wouldn't have his fellow jounin waiting any longer.

"Sup Mr. Jounin. You're looking quite......lavish over there huh?" Royalty said in a way that was hard to detect the sarcasm. Though, Kyson had known him for well over a few years. If he didn't pick up on the subtle things that made up his personality then they couldn't call each other true friends. If Kyson would look towards his face he would notice a slight grin. This was about to be like old times.

(833)

As Kyson arrived at the village gates, he would wait there for a little to see if Royalty got the same message he received. But he wouldn't wait for too long. Since this was a serious mission that must be taken care of immediately, he would wait for a little and then go out to search for him. Still thinking about what the kage told him after the exams, that has been on his mind for quite some time. Wondering if he could ever handle such a responsibility. As he is now, that would be a definite "no." So that only meant one thing, its time for him to grow stronger and surpass everyone in the village. That was the only way to prove his worth. He mastered the art of ninjutsu and fuinjutsu. Kyson thinks its about time to add something new to his fighting style. Something that controls ones space and the time around them. Kyson knew a few jutsu that involved that specialty. But they were very low ranking jutsu. So, he'll try something a little different for this mission. Hoping it won't get himself killed in the process.

Few minutes later, Kyson sensed a chakra he could never forget. At the same time, he heard a voice from that same familiar chakra... Royalty motherfucking Yuka. Kyson almost forgot he cut his hair during the exams, it was a whole new look for him. Its been a while since the two of them have been on a mission together. This brings back old times.


"Ha, I can say the same for you. New rank, new look huh?" Kyson would say in response to Royalty. Its been a while since they caught up like this due to them having busy schedules. But this reunion couldn't go on for too long since the village's future was at risk.


"Alright, since your here. I assume you got the message as well? Just when I thought I could get a little day off.." Kyson would say to Royalty in a serious but calm tone in his voice. It sucks something happened right after the exams. But that's what comes with being a shinobi. 

(WC: 1203)

Royalty figured that Kyson would be excited to reunite with him. It's been a while since they've got to chat it up with each other. This was not the time for them to catch up however. The way the scroll had sounded, this mission was pretty serious. Those documents seemed like they'd get someone in a lot of trouble. As he rolled up to his friend and heard his response to his previous statement, Royalty would reply. 

"Yeah... can't be out here with the demeanor of a kid again. I only had my hair that long because I thought it looked cool. It was a hassle though. I can't keep having to clear my eyesight," Royalty would ironically say as he moved his hair from over his right eye. He kept one side longer than the other for nostalgia. "Well..... you know what I mean. Oh and about this mission. I was briefed not too long ago. I was at the training grounds. Not doing anything too heavy. Just working out. But this seems serious..." Royalty looked at the guards that were around the gates. As he locked eyes with one, he nodded. At that exact moment, the gates would start to open. Royalty turned back to Kyson and nodded assuming he would've replied already and began to walk outside of the gates. 

Walking outwards into the Wind Country, Royalty took a deep sigh. Well, it wasn't much more of a sigh than a typical deep breath. He felt excited despite this being a potentially dangerous task. It had been a long time since he had been outside of the village. The last time he could recall was when he and Kyson had traveled to Konoha to relieve the suspicions on a person named Salzem. Ironically, Kyson would fight him in the exams. The other people in his group were genin. Roy felt like he had the most challenging group out of the two, considering it consisted of all Chuunin. But that was for another story. The breeze from the Wind Country blew slightly. Roy's hair moved but not as much due to it being shorter. Their journey would now prove why they were selected to ascend to Jounin.

(1202)

As Kyson heard Royalty talk bout his hair, the Hozuki smirked a bit. He always enjoyed the conversations the two had. Kyson was even thinking about growing his hair out. But he just couldn't picture himself with long hair. "Welcome to the crew." Kyson would say with a smirk on his face. Referencing Royalty cutting his hair. But back to the mission, it seemed Kyson's assumption was on point. Royalty did get a report about the mission and it was just them two going. 

As Kyson followed Royalty out of the gates, he couldn't lie.. he was a bit excited. This will be the first time they see each other in combat as Jounin. But at the same time, seeing how serious this mission sounds. They could easily lose their lives if they aren't careful. It be a shame if the two were to die right after they got Jounin. So Kyson was always catious the moment he left the gates and headed out towards the desert. He thought he should look at the report to see if there was any information on where to find the culprit. As Kyson took out the report and gave it another read. He noticed something very familiar. The culprits were last seen at "The Oasis." Kyson thought hard about that, he remembers that name. Then he finally remembered...

"Well.. looking the report. looks likes we'll be going somewhere very familiar. Same place that got us Chunnin. Damn, doesn't that take you back." Kyson would say as he begins to look up in the clouds. The two of them came a long way since they first came to Suna. This just made the mission a lot more interesting. They were being lead by a Jounin back then, now they are the ones who are Jounin. Funny how things change so quick. 

(WC: 1510)

The two of them making their exit from the village was filled with nostalgia. It seemed like the two of them were just bond to be together. Friends for life. Despite the two being such great friends, they also had astounding team work. The synergy the two had was unmatched. It was certainly impeccable. As Kyson made the remark about his hair, Royalty laughed lightly. This was just like old times, Royalty would think. Just as that thought crossed his mind, Kyson would say exactly what he was thinking. Crazy how they're teamwork was even extended to finishing each other's thoughts. 

As Kyson would look at the report, Royalty would notice the look on his face. The wind blew slightly aggressively. Royalty would turn his head to the avoid the blowing dust and debris clouding his vision. This is when Kyson had said something that intrigued Roy; the two of them were returning to the Oasis. That place was the epitome of the two's nostalgia. That is when the two were on their first mission to be ranked up as Chuunin. In the span of five seconds, the contents of the whole mission flashed in his head. Those were some really nice days. He would reply to Kyson's comment.

"Yeah... that's crazy. I think we were with........um...... Choco? Chocolate? Toasty-o's? Ehh I can't remember.. Anyway, she was crazy. It was fun being with her to get the job done though. Come to think about it.. I wonder if they fixed that hole in the hotel," Royalty would say before looking back at Kyson and laughing. With his hands in his pocket, he was walking through the humid desert having a great time. Maybe this was to lessen the fact that the two were getting ready to risk their lives once again for their home.. 

(1506)

After Kyson spoke about their mission taking them back down memory lane. Hearing Royalty messing up on Coco's name made him a laugh a little. He couldn't tell if he was serious or if he was joking around. But knowing Royalty, he probably really couldn't remember her name. Walking through the thick sandy climate. Kyson has been grateful from everything that has happen till now. They are finally top ranked shinobi of the village.

"I think her name was... Coco? Remember she had two kids with her and we had to carry them. That was a crazy ass mission. To believe she brought children on an S-Rank mission. And I would hope they fixed that hole, that place is too nice to be having something like that stay th-" Kyson said as he stopped. Looking up ahead, Kyson saw something... it looked like a camp site. Kyson would look at Royalty for a brief second and then back at the campsite. From how long they have worked together, that mean lets check it out. Kyson would run at a speed of 50 towards the campsite. Using his chakra sensory, he didn't sense any presence nearby. 

 As he approached about 10 meters from the campsite, Kyson would stop. Who knows, there could be some traps. "I'll check it out first since most attacks won't work on me." Kyson would say to Royalty if he was near him. Due to his bloodline, if there happen to be some kind of trap. Kyson would most likely be able to avoid damage from it. As he walked towards the campsite, catious as ever. As he was really close to the campsite, he'd look at Royalty and move his head with a slight jerk to signal follow. Kyson would check the tent first. Maybe there could be a clue over there. 

As Kyson walked up towards it, moved the curtain of the entrance of the tent with his left hand. There was 20 paper bombs inside. One paper bomb wouldn't go that far, but 20 all in one place would be enough to destroy the entire campsite. "Trap!" Kyson would yell. He would would make the ram hand seal and body flick at a speed of 200 20 meters away from the camp. He was moving so fast, he would be able to see the explosion after he bodyflicked. He would hold his position to see if Royalty made it out. He would expect him to.

(WC: 1922)

As Kyson had reminded Royalty of what the Jounin's name was, he slowly put his head back as a sign of acknowledgment to let Kyson know that he got it. So that was her name, Royalty would think to himself. Kyson then reminded him of how she brought her children onto the mission. Now that were the signs of a crazy individual. Bringing your kids onto an S-Rank mission would be shocking to anybody that you told. There was a time and place for bring your kids to work day. 

As Kyson was talking about the hole that Coco had left in the wall to summon her salamander, Kyson was interrupted. He seemed distraught as he looked ahead. Royalty would turn his attention the the campsite. As he ran forward at a speed of 50, Royalty would run to his right in a counterclockwise path towards the campsite at a speed of 20. Using his chakra sensory, he couldn't see anybody. Kyson would warn him that they're may be traps. Royalty would keep his distance. The second Kyson would see that there were traps inside of the tent, Royalty halted his run. Considering paper bombs don't have such a range, he was safe. Watching Kyson body flicker away to safety, Royalty would meet eyes if he looked back at him.

"The paper bombs weren't a trap. It was most likely to destroy evidence of the campsite. Now we can't see how long ago this campsite was made.... Bummer." Royalty would walk towards the now destroyed site. As he reached it, he would avoid any leftover fire from the fabric of the tent. He kneeled down to touch some of the charred pieces of wood. It still felt a little warm. Was this because of the bombs or were the ninja here recently? Royalty could not tell at this point. He stood back up and looked over at Kyson.

"It's a long shot but whoever we're looking for may not be too far away. We have to hurry up and make it to the oasis." With saying that, Royalty would run towards the oasis at a speed of 62. He had wondered if there were multiple ninja working together or if it was a solo criminal. It was hard to tell due to the campsite being destroyed. He would've been able to tell by how many beds would be on the floor. Either way, there was no time to be playing games at this moment.
