Kumogakure Entrance/Exit

The men guarding the gates were fearless, they stood perfectly still hours on end. Taking short break for food and water. The gates stood tall casting a shadow across the dirt path that stood below as if it was an inpenitrable fortress. A wall of steel.

---Kumogakure's Gates---

This is were you post a short post to verify you leaving and coming back in the village via missions or something else.

Its to verify who is in the village and assist with trafficing

Junichiro began his long trek to the village gates it was a couple miles from his office, but it was worth the exercise. He hated asking other ninja to retrieve the traficing reports for him. The road was plain dirt with some gravel thrown in to try and smooth it over, so the travel would be easier for caravans, that was his idea, he grinned slowly. Approaching the large gate he saw two Chunin sitting at their desks one was asleep the other was reading through piles of paperwork.

Juni decided to play a trick on them, he took a left passing through the woods and climbing up the back of the small hut as he peeked down he yelled firmly, "Boo." The man with the papers tossed them allover the area and the man who was half asleep tumbled over in his chair, "haha, got yah." Jumping down with a smile across his face. The two Jonin scolded him and he replied, "Just because i'm the kage dosen't mean I can't have fun." Laughing while he exclaimed it. Grabbing the papers he turned and did sort of a skip/walk mix while whistling on the way back. "See you guys tomorrow or the next day." He yelled back, "And try to stay awake." The Jonin heard his loud chuckle, as he made his way towards his office.

(Part of "Sound off to Kumogakure"...this is Part 2)

As Jakusha finally made it to the top, he was almost out of breath. The air was lighter up in the clouds which made it harder for him to breath. Good thing I came here first.....It's the hardest one by far to reach.... He thought to himself as he got to his feet and walked to the front gate. I hope they let me through.... He walked up to the gate and saw the five village guards rush to him, stopping him from advancing. "Who are you and state your business....now..." Jakusha was about to call the person rude but didn't, for the guard was doing his job, so Jakusha answered. "I'm Jakusha Hyuuga, leader of the Sound Village and it's country leader. I'm hear to speak to the Raikage about forming a alliance and or treaty....I know I didn't send a messenger bird or any other type of notification....I just didn't want the other villages to know I was coming here." Jakusha said in a tone that was light, soft, and respectful. "So can you please send word to your Kage....I can wait here...."

One of the guards left in a puff of smoke as Jakusha stood there, waiting. Now to see if the Raikage will talk to me....and if so...will he accept my offer.....

The ninja caught him by surprise as he neared the village, "State your business." He replied to the ninja as he kept moving forward. "Ah, yes sir...apparently the leader of the sound village is here to see you." Juni was stunned as it was unexpected, "He could of at least sent a letter, so I could have planned." Juni sighed snapping his fingers, "Send him the carriage thats the best I can do for him now, tell them to bring him to my office, I'm not walking up the hill again, hahaha." The ninja dissapeared yet again to follow his orders, the puff of smoke cleared and he began his trek into the village. Exchanging waves and glances along the way, greeting several citizens he finally managed to make it back in one piece, "I hope this isn't a meeting about something bad." He mumbled pressing his palm against the heavy door pushing it open slowly.

Jakusha waited, and it didn't take long for the guard to return. "A carriage will take you to see the Raikage..." He was a bit surprised by this, A carriage.....I rather not....it makes ambushes all that easier... He thought to himself. "Um....is it okay if you remove the top of the carriage....I'm still having trouble adjusting to the air up here....." The guards obliged and removed the top of the carriage for Jakusha. Once they did, he got in and sat down. Now to see the Raikage.... Right when he sat down, the carriage started to move.

On the way to the office, Jakusha was looking around, eyes always moving, looking at the people and their way of life and for any tricks that might pop up. Well...it seems as if they won't try anything funny....thats good....now only if they stay like that on the way out... He continued to look around until they reached the Raikage's adminstration building. Stepping out of the carriage, Jakusha was escorted by ANBU guards to the Raikage's office. Once at the door, Jakusha knocked and waited for a reply.

(OOC: I'll begin the posts in office category)

Juni followed by two members of the ANBU black ops and a Jonin was led through the great stone gates, travelling gracefully to the village hidden in the stone or earth whichever people preferred, "I truly hope they see are purpose." He left.

Returning from his long trip from Iwagakure, he stretched passing through the gates thinking about climbing the mountian and shivered at the thought. "You guys are free to go." The ANBU dissapeared followed by the Jonin. He casually climbed up the cliff until the village came into view and he jumped for joy performing a leprachaun heel click, not your average everyday thing a kage would do, but he was one in a million.

Daichi appeared near the gates of Kumogakure and walked right near the guards with his refreshing and happy face. 'The trip over the sea sure was nice'. Once he reached next to guards he pulled out his identification and showed it to the guards. "I think I can get it because I have a letter to Kumokage by Tsuchikage". Daichi slightly smiled and started waiting what the guards will say.

-This needs NPC post I Think-

((You can get in because Iwa and Kumo have an alience, also your Kage has sent your identification here so it is okay, atleast I read it from your chatter at Tsuchikage))

-The guards let you in-

Daichi had reached the gates of Kumogakure, two Kumo shinobi next to him and one saying a little behind. He walked to guards "Well I am off then and it looks like these three are too if they will follow me" Daichi smiled a little to the guards and registered himself off the village. 'I am not going by the sea this time because three guards. I will pick running'. Daichi turned to guards. "Hey you guys don't mind running, because it will take much more longer by walking". He didn´t wait for answer just started running in direction of Iwagakure.
