Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hanto waved back at Matsui before directing his attention to Leiko. "Actually I do so how about you just chillax and go away," he said shooing her away. Sitting down on the chair he started to feel a bit relax before so saying. "So you actually paid your respects to my parents. You know it would be better and a bit more respectful if you came i person."

Hearing this was a bit to much for Hanto. He did not know anything about Chiharu's condition, he kind of felt guilty towards her. Sighing Hanto stood up and bowed towards the hokage. "Please forgive me Hokage-sama." he said. He did not do this because he was being threatened, he didn't care about that to much, but he apologized for not realizing her illness.

"Like hell I would go help the onsen owner, and I will train whenever I like." he said to her before she took back Naoki from his body. "And its about time you took him back. Seriously that was weird being knocked out by him then waking up realizing that your falling to the ground."

Hanmto couldn't help but smile. He just needed to say all that so he cause he felt uncomfortable when he apologized to her so now everything was back to normal, but before he left he turned around . "Oh by the way for a token of me and hopefulyl my brother's apperciation for showing your respect you should stop over at our house, for um I don't know for something I guess." he said confusing himself a little. Now he stood there wondering if Chiharu would come.

An ANBU member stood by the door of the office, taking a position shortly after the office had been locked up and those inside had left. It was a mere coincidence that such a person had been standing on guard after such threats had been thrown around the room about using just such a member.

Never the less there he stood, a mask over his face, obscuring any detail one might use to mark him later. He had been in the village a while now. Watching and observing, gathering information. Though despite it all, it hadn't dawned on any that he was not what he seemed to be.

To mimic the movements of a dead guy for so long with out arousing suspicion, it seems my original analysis of this village was correct. Still I dare not underestimate it. After all just because it seems so large and all encompassing didn't mean it would be slow to respond.

After a while, he moved away from the office door. It was locked and he wasn't going to under estimate the Hokage's door protection. He would simply have to find another way inside. He left a small present however.

He walked away with a purpose as if his shift had ended and scouted about around the tower. Later he walked up to the door and knocked. He forced chakra into the present he had left earlier, and the door suddenly opened.

Not acting very suspicious he enter the room as if he had been summoned and closed the door behind him. His senses were hyperactive alert, trying to feel for any surprises for him.

Given his relative intact state he made his way to the desk and quickly began searching through what ever he could find.

Time 1:48 am eastern central time

((Ah I been wondering about defenses. Glad I was in the ball park.))

Aware of his surroundings he was, yet even he couldn't miss the movements of a Kage unwilling to disguise herself.

Perhaps an intimadation measure. No matter.

Simotanously the three explosive tags he had placed exploded on the desk. Dressed an an ANBU he could have tried to play it off, yet he was tired, of such pretense as it was.

He wasn't too fond of wasting any more chakra. He was quite pleased with the testing of the Hokage's defenses. Though he planned to escape with at least a token of his hard work and effort.

Tiger with left, Ox with right, adjusted Ox above Tiger . His hands flew into motion just as he slightly raised his mask enough to reveal a toothy grin.

"Earth Release: Earth Style Wall!"

His forays into the Land of Earth had proven useful one again as a strong, protective wall quickly formed from the mud spewing from his mouth. With the door way blocked he moved as one motion. Removing the Ninjaken from his back he attached three powerful explosive tags and tossed it near the wall.

Timer's set time to go.

He had decided brute force was the key to unlocking things and so he quickly grabbed what he could from the ruin drawers he had damaged. Tucking them under one arm, he had little doubt that the hokage would be busting through at any moment. Cursing himself for using chakra when he needed to preserve such things in case he got into a serious fight, he used his other hand to toss three ninja stars at the window. He was going for a flashy exit.

At this point he had little doubt that some one else had been alerted to this break in. Even though only mere seconds had passed. So gathering into himself, he leapt from the window and onto the rooftop of a nearby building. The sound of an explosion reached his ears, almost as if punctuating the beginning of a race.

The chase was on. He wasted no time darting away. His only true identifyable marking from other ANBU, being the missing Ninjaken and of course the things he had tucked under his arm.
