"Then I will teach you shortly, for it seems our time is up at the moment, here he comes." Howaido turned to face Gamakichi as he arrived with breath and the Mizukage. He bowed respectfully onto one knee and spoke gently behind his mask,"Lord Mizukage, I am honored you would choose to grace me with your presence after a day of debates." He stood after a few more seconds and nodded. "I hope you will forgive me, for I will surely be killed by Lord Kazekage if I remove my mask outside of the Sand Village. I would first like to apologize for my toads rude actions previous your visit. Though there may have been loopholes he took my sister Nijiro from this village without my knowledge. Though no harm has come and I am glad I got to see her, I hope you will accept my apologies for Gamakichis actions during my incapacitation." He drank from a bottle of water and offered the Mizukage and his follower any seats available. "If you will accept these I can begin the terms of your visit, starting with my name: I am Hatake, Howaido, Oinin of Sunagakure no Sato."

Don't think. Breathe.

Breath appeared with the toad, along with the Mizukage. He looked between Howaido and Nijiro. Nijiro has to choose between her country and her family. Breath was aware that her country would likely lose. Otherwise, this entire impasse never would have happened. If Howaido had to meet the Mizukage, it couldn't be just to surrender Nijiro over. It was probably for the better, for her, at least.

He waited in silence.

Satoshi had ben carried over a great distance through reverse summoning brought forth by the large toad. After arriving at the location, Satoshi saw that they were in a hidden place. There were many ruined buildings engulfed by the environment around them. To Sato's surprise, there were two shinobi already there. One of them was Nijiro, one of his shinobi and the other was a Sand ninja, surely the toad's master. Not knowing what to expect, Sato only went along. He was greeted frormally, and this Satoshi appreciated. He bowed his head slightly in return to the ANBU before him. It was strange to hear that Nijiro was teh sister of one of the Sand's ANBU. It was not so shocking to hear that there were more of the Hatake but he thought he knew most about his shinobi. He refused the drink and decided to stand, seeing as there was no chairs for them to carry on a conversation in. "I am pleased to meet another of my apparently large clan." Sato smiled slightly. "To see another of our lineage is always a pleasant surprise." Satoshi spoke frankly. It was just a moment later that he realized why he was there.

"I understand youve been here under rather strenuous discussions today, so Ill keep it brief." Howaido cleared his throat,"I was asked on my travel to return my sister to try and develop a mutual agreement of village relations between Sand and Mist and Cloud. I do not know of your current alliegances as of the meeting you had today but, I am inclined to offer trading rights and free passage between villages any time if you are willing to accept. I may be able to later provide further promises of an alliance when I return to Miyamoto-sama." Howaido had made his peace known and now it was up to the Mizukage,"On another note, I was told my father now resided in Mist, I havent seen him since birth and was wondering if I could visit your village to see him?"

"You sure that's him?" "Mhm! Positive. Her scent's coming from him." "Alrighty then..."

Ash tapped the top of the hilt of the katana sheathed at his waist as he entered the ruins. He scouted the area before hand, following Ouka to find whoever went to the Canine Temple before he had. Howaido was here too... interesting, but these things did happen every so often; running into an old friend with another mission in mind. He pointed at Satoshi. "Oi... and yo, Howaido-sensei, anyway... you! Mister! You've been to the Dog House, right? Seen the Den Mother, got her blessing? I'd like to learn from you, to be able to summon them as well. If you're not doing anything important."

"I owe my life to this village, theres no way I couldnt die for it."

Howaido twitched slightly as Ashitaka made such an ill respectable entrance,"ora Ora ORA!" In a swift motion Howaido moved and grabbed Ash and Ouka by the back of their necks and spun them around to face him. "What the hell was that? Speaking to the Mizukage in such a way, geez I taught you both better than that! Omategu...." Howaido scolded the two as he made his point,"Im here trying to have a nice diplomatic discussion with Mizukage-sama and here you enter representing Sunagakure in such a way? I do believe I am slightly ashamed of you two..." With a final sigh Howaido returned to his conversation,"I hope you will forgive them Mizukage-sama. These are my students, Ashitaka Shishigami and his female animal partner Ouka, they are Chuunin. I am proud of them for passing the exams but, at the moment I see not all of my lessons have sunken in the way I thought."

Satoshi's eyes changed to reflect his amusement for his smile had now faded with time. He was indeed interested in what the ANBU was offerring but Sato was tired and knew that he was needed back in his own village. It was strange, however, how one of the Hatake, born from one of the land of water, ended up in Sand. After the arrival of a Chunnin and his dog companion, Satoshi realized that he was needed by others than his own villagers. "It is not an issue." Sato said to Howaido in regards of the sudden approach of the Chunnin and his forwardness. "I do wish to establish positive relations with Sunagakure but I have to disappoint you. I have travelled a long distance to reach Kumogakure and I must now return to Kirigakure." Satoshi spoke calmly as ever. "Go to your Kage and let him know that I welcome a representative if not himself, into my village in order to discuss relations." Satoshi's eyes then turned to the Chuunin. "I would like you to send this one as well. I shall give to him what he asks for."

"I owe my life to this village, theres no way I couldnt die for it."

Howaido nodded and smiled beneath his mask to the man,"Arigatou Mizukage-sama. I will promise to bring him on my travels to your village next time, I hope you will take good care of Nijiro in the mean time." Howaido seemed to look at Ash hastily,"Im also afraid I would have to happily oblige you to set another date for our discussion. My village is in the midst of conflict, I cannot truthfully divulge anymore but, I cannot stay from my village any longer as well. With this I believe our current conversation is finished and I again thank you, we shall all meet at a later date when we both have less on our shoulders Mizukage-sama." He now hopped onto Gamakichi and nodded,"I must be going now, adiosu!" With that the two disappeared in a cloud of white smoke, they would be back but, right now he feared staying away any longer.

Don't think. Breathe.

Breath turned to the Mizukage. "Does this mean we're leaving?" He hoped that the "we" meant himself, the Mizukage, and Nijiro. But at the same time, he hoped that Nijiro would choose her family before her village. It would be a choice Breath would have to make, once he was sufficiently trained. And I'm going to choose my family. I have to go back. I promised. Even as he thought it to himself, he felt himself wavering.

Satoshi watched the ANBU respectfully dismiss himself. He then looked at Nijiro and Breath seriously, as if the situation had always been tense. "Let's find our way out of this place." Satoshi said moving past his two shinobi. He kept his thoughts and theories to himself and began to walk downhill in search of an opening in the foliage-covered ruins.

"All You Gotta Do Is Believe."

Ash stomped on the ground. "Damnit! Stupid wars..." So close to the truth behind the Shishigami and the Canine, and yet the answers were being torn from him. Ouka had to drag him away, following their sensei's hint.

Breath nodded, and followed the kage.
