In an empty chamber, a man is thinking to himself, pondering the possible end of everything he ever wanted to do. With his eyes closed and his legs crossed, he meditates and plans out strategy after strategy to intercept whatever attacks his squad might recieve. His thoughts raced for what seemed like and eternity when the silence was broken, and a knock at his chamber's door rang out.
"Master Reitsu?" A young ninja slid the door open and walked into the room.
"Yes?" He stood up and turned around to see the boy. Reitsu was much taller and towered over the newcomer. He was already thirty and his end was near. "What is it?"
The boy stood in awe of Reitsu's mighty figure, but snapped back to reality once he spoke. "Sir, the message you requested to be sent out has just left for each of the nearby villages." He began to name them off. "The Leaf Village, the Mist Village, the Sand Village, and the Rock Village."
"Very well, cary on. I shall wait at the gate for our support." He walked past the ninja and left the building. He walked through the purposly kunai shaped village until he reached the tip, the gate.
Meanwhile...
Ryu, a jounin who was on guard duty at the Leaf Village's gate, was lazily juggling kunai to pass his time. He saw off in the distance a glint of metal and prepared himself, but acted as if he hadn't seen it at all.It came closer into view as another ninja. He tensed further but continued to act. He watched the ninja until he was in full sight, he was a Ore ninja carrying a scroll in his right hand. He relaxed as he realized it was nothing more than a message.
He took the scroll from the ninja and sent him on his way. The ninja said the scroll was for Lady Tsunade, so he took off toward her office, where she would surely be in such a troubled time.
"Lady Tsunade, a message has come from the Ore village for you." He walked in and bowed to her.
"Well don't just stand there, bring it here." She snapped, apparently having a bad day.
"Uh... yes ma'am." He nervously darted over to her and handed her the scroll. "It seemed important, the messanger was horribly nervous and stated that you absolutely needed to see it."
"Hmm." She oppened the scroll and her eyes scanned across the paper. As she reached the end, her eyes dialated with the shock of the message. "Oh no.."
"Ma'am? What is it?" Is there something wrong?"
"Yes, the Ore Village is soon to be attacked. I wish we could send some assistance, but we are currently tied up." She looked around the room in thought
"Ma'am, if I may suggest. I would like to go." He leaned over and put his hands on her desk. "It would be perfect. Not only will I be helping them and earning friendship, but we will also have some insight on their jutsu if they ever becom hostile toward us."
She looked him in the eyes, obviously thinking it over. "Fine, I'll let you go since we have plenty of ninja on guard duty. Be safe and be sure to come back ready to work again."
He bowed "Of course ,ma'am." Then exited the room and left for his house, to prepare for the trip.

[Where do you want us to enter? Are we supposed to go with your character on this mission, or what?]

[actually I was hoping for those from other villages to get their messages here, but I'll go get the others now.]
Ryu finished up his preparations when he began to think up a team. He would have to take a few gennin or chunin because the jounin would surely be busy. Hmmm. Who to take? I would have to get some one good at taijutsu. Neji! And someone with experience in defensive jutsu could help too. Nasu!Perfect, now I just need to find them.
Ryu left his appartment in search for Neji, because he could help him find Nasu. He began his search in front of Ichiraku's Ramen Shop.

Kain finished his lunch at Ichiraku's, and shouldered his blade. He turned around and watched Ryu for a moment then left and went to the forest to check on his bats. It took him about an hour and pint of his blood. after they were all fed he went to the stream to wash off the blood.

*Hyuuga Complex*
Neji sat meditating on the roof of one of the buildings of the Hyuuga complex, his legs crossed and eyes closed, building up chakra in his core. It was a bit surprising that he had not been given any missions in the past few days; from what he heard, Tsunade seemed to be having somewhat of a hard time finding enough ninja to fulfill the various missions. However, he wasn’t going to complain; this kind of a break was rare, and he enjoyed not having to undergo the rigorous training of his semi-crazed sensei since he was also away on a mission.
Taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly, Neji opened his eyes and stood, looking out over the village.
Seems like all the ninja are gone…Almost anyone who’s walking around out there is a civilian.
Sending his newly-built-up chakra to his legs and feet, he leapt a few feet onto the thick stone entrance gate to the complex, then down onto the ground on the other side of it.
I suppose I should find Lady Tsunade and ask if there’s something I’m supposed to be doing. It feels wrong just sitting here. With that thought, he began making his way into the village.
…………………………………………… *Konoha Hospital*
Nasu yawned as he flipped the page in the heavy text book. Even though he loved studying medicine, these huge texts on various diseases and the human anatomy could get a little monotonous after a while. Unfortunately, it was the only way to further his skills as a medic-nin.
“You shouldn’t be studying, Nasu, you should be doing physical training,” he mumbled to himself, turning another page and scribbling something down in a scroll. “Ah, well. If I want to get as good as Lady Hokage herself…”

Ryu watched as Kain left Ichiraku's. Perhaps I'll go after him later, but for now, Neji. He continued to walk along the corridor when ,Neji, just who I was looking for. You're not on a mission are you? If not, I'd like you to come along with me to the Ore Village. What do you say?"

"Amazingly enough," Neji began, "I'm completely free today; Lady Hokage didn't give me any missions. What's this about the Ore Village?"

[yes I was gonn a have Reitsu send a message to the Land of Honey and the Cloud village in this post.]
"Well, I'd prefer to save it for later, when the whole team is together. That's why I came looking for you first. Can you find Nasu and Kain for me? It'll save some time for us." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reitsu had been waiting in a tree near the gate when a villager passed by. "Hey, there. I need you to find a messenger to send two more messages. One to the Land of Honey around the Star Village, and the other to the Cloud Village. I belive they can be of some assistance as well."
The ninja bowed "Aye, sir. I'll get right on it." He ran off into the village and soon two more messengers darted off towards their destinations.

Neji nodded silently and closed his eyes. After a short pause, his eyes flew open, his irises covered in byakugan marks, his pupils now barely visible, and the veins parallel to his eyes swollen with blood and chakra. His eyes twitched around a bit. To Ryu, it would have looked like he was merely looking at a space of a few inches, but since his vision field was panned out so far, he was scanning several feet with every tiny twitch of his eye.
After a few moments, he identified the chakra signatures of the two men. "Kain is in the forest and Nasu is in the hospital's medical library." He let his kekkei genkai deactivate, then looked to Ryu and waited for a response.

"I'll go get Kain, you go get Nasu. We'll begin briefing after we are all together. We'll meet back here." He gave a little saluting gesture with his index and middle finger, then darted off into the forrest. It wasn't hard to find Kain, all he had to do was follow the smell of guano.
He came up to him at a stream washing blood off of himself. Must've been feeding his pets. "Hey, Kain. Are you currently on any missions? If not, I'd like you to come with Nasu, Neji, and myself to the Ore Village. Will you come?"

Kain looked at him. "Do I get to kill something?"
He turned into the water again, and washed the last of the blood off.

(What country is this village in? I'd like to get an idea of where to place my characters. Also I think I'm the only rock village ninja, unless Leonardo is going to show up or I can get MT to make a rock village ninja in time to join in. If my team is the only one, I'll most likely just have them on their way already since the rock village has no discription of it.)

(I think Mei's the only one from the Star Village. Would you like me to just wait until everyone else shows up at whatever meeting spot they have and then make an entrance post?)
