Dumplinss

ki was confused of what hinata was saying. he was an airhead. "whats telepathy?"

Hinata started to doubt if he really is such a great ninja. None the less, they were now only 2. What would Hokage-sama say about this? Hokage had trusted her with a mission, and she can't even put a team togheter. She can't go back to the office and admit faillure. Hokage wouldn't understand, he is man who would never give up. Thats right...She won't give up either. She'll had to complete the mission even if she had to go alone.
"Thats right, we have to complete this mission, no matter what!" Her eyes were shining of determation and she smiled because she didn't feel any doubts. She turned her head slowly toward Ki, to see if he agreed with her.

ki was smiling. he always did. but it was empty. " i think we should start on our formation. then we should start out our strategy. then after that we can finally have some refreshing tea." ki looked her in the eye. "tea is refreshing for the mind and the soul, so maybe you could stop thinking in your head and then start to talk with you mouth. then you could finally use your words with actions." he sat down.

Hinata was looking at Ki as a student looks up to his/her master. Those words of Ki sounded like they had great wisdom hidden in them. Unfortunally, Hinata didn't understand it. She started to think about what he had said: "stop thinking in your head and then start to talk with you mouth".
"Ki-kun, I don't think they are selling alcohole here..."

* Minato smile's* all is going well. I will ask Ki to join me later, but for now... let him ponder along in his own world, he certinely is one person who i can never predict Minato thought as he walked off. Sadly enough he had already left leaf and had gathered the info he needed on Nara courtsey of Hinata.

ki chuckled. "im a monk. i dont drink hinata." ki began to laugh so hard his pale face almost turned pink. then he calmed down but between the strategys he mumbled. "who ever herd of a drunk monk..."

Minato's clone quitly observed them. Minato knew full well Ki was aware of the clone. But was Hinata? He could find some more prescious info.

"i know. minato. why are you hiding?" it looks like he had caught on. " do you have any ideas for this strategy?" but ki would never reveal him unless it was dire.

Hinata got up from the seat. She had eaten all dumplinss. (She must have been hungry :shock: )
"Ki-kun, I hope I can rely on you. You will follow me on to this mission?" She wanted a promise.
((If Ki's answer is positive:))
"I have to run some errands first... Perhaps we will meet up again by the gate?" Hinata started to walk, her destination was the hokage's office.

After Hinata left Minato's clone left its hiding position and appeared next to ki " Ki you should know better than to expose my location. Or have you decided to go into rivalry with the Akatsuki once more." Minato said through his clone. " You know there is a price on your head Ki. The reason i don't fight you is because you were my friend since before i joined akatsuki." Minato's expressed.

ki chuckled. " i know. its just so fun watching you tagg along. and hinata is cool. i have no intention in joining the akastuki. you know where i stand. between man and the willow clan. if you want people to join the skatsuki, ask my little sister. shes in the middle of the ice desert with the rest of my bloodthirsty clan." he held up a cup. "tea?"

" Its a clone Ki " the clone said. " The real Me is back at akatsuki base. "Although thanks for the offer. " The clone flickered off.

ki shrugged and drank it himself. then he got up and flickerd to the gate.

Hinata arrives to the gate.
"Sorry, I'm late" She came with a small backpack, she was ready to travel. The content of the backpack is the usual equipment she takes with her on to long trips.
"I guess everybody are here", she smiled as if she just told a joke.

ki smiled back. he just had his robe and him. nothing much.

"This is the first A-mission I'll be leading." She looks concerned in to the horizone.

ki nodded. "okay. and ill be looking behind us scanning in the lower areas. in case of any traps, akatauki and such."

Hinata smiled of relief. Ki seems to be so experienced and confident. There is no doubt, this team will be alright.
"Yes! We'll head out? Country of grass, was it?" Hinata starts to walk.

"um, no. land of stones. we have to head him there. its better to get him in the stones. theres less terrain. and since you have the biyakugan, you should go up higher into the trees clearing the way." ki smiled like he was o.d.ed. "but your the leader."

The guard of the gate looked at the two ninjas. He started to slighty laugh and wasn't shy at all by yelling:
"HAHA, GOOD LUCK, BYE!" He suddenly notice that the 2 ninjas are gone already. He starts to mutter.

((The dungeon continues at the travel to the other country))

Hyuuga Hinata comes back to the dumplins shop after 2 weeks.
"I have truly missed the dumplins. They are very tasty." Hinata stands eagerly in front of the house-tent.

((A picture of dumplins.))

(yum..*mouth waters*)

Hinata goes in to order some.
"Five please!" Hinata looks very happy.

ki smiled. "well, looks like your happy today."
