I would know him in death At the end of the world Yamaguchi Masshiro

There was some rain just outside the covered carriage that Masshiro was traveling in. It was cool, very cool and the chill could only be kept away by heavy fabric, tea and a good conversation to distract from that cold. Though this mission was designated ordinarily for another corps position, it seemed that Masshiro had impressed someone to be assigned to it. Either way, it was expected that he do well.

The local entertain Hisako met up with Masshiro and they were shipped out. Their ship would dock between Hi no Kuni and Kaze no Kuni, where they would have to travel by land through Nohara and Arashi countryside. It was a mostly painless trip, but now the duo was approaching the border of Stone Country from Arashi no Kuni.

Both of the individuals traveling had a disguise - particularly as entertainers traveling from town to town, going to new cities and looking for new customers. Hisako's role was well pre-established, Masshiro had to be cast as an acrobat of sorts.

If Masshiro looked out he would see the border marker approaching, somewhere he would have a scroll with his identifications on him. One that was meant to show his fake identity. Hopefully his real identification he had left behind.

Border control was up and coming and there was no telling if they would get by with no issue into Stone country it remained to be seen.

Hisako was blandly staring out the window, he was not the most talkative. Occasionally he would make jokes but they were often off color than anything else.

Suddenly their transport lurched to a stop.

"State your purpose."

Hisako leaned forward, practically out of the windows towards the checkpoint guards that were inspecting their carriage.

"Can't entertainers travel without issue?" He huffed with a pout.

"Oh, entertainers are ya?" The guard rolled his eyes.

"Where are your permits?

He glanced to Masshiro before pulling out a scroll with his identification handing it to the man.

The guard looked it over, a grimace of annoyance on his features. The guards here clearly preferred to do nothing. Lazing about. So when push came to shove, it was just more a frustration than something they enjoyed or took pride in doing. The identification was returned and Hisako sat back with a thud.

"And what about you?" The guard was staring at Masshiro then, eyeballing the special jounin extra hard.

    Despite his usual clothing being fairly large and covering his limps well enough, the cold didn't care about the size of his coat, or the durable material it was made of. At the moment he looked a bit ridiculous, almost puffy, as he had a shirt under his usual vest, thick socks very obviously sticking out, and gloves which he quite frankly hated wearing, even if temporarily. Unfortunately he wasn't much for tea and carriage rides, separately sure, but he had far too many rides that ended up with a very uncomfortable lap and burnt thighs. Unfortunately the conversation was in limited supply, so his clothes were doing some heavy lifting in this situation, but he was distracted enough with the thick notebook his eyes were glued to, going over the information for this mission yet again, and would go over it an uncountable amount of times before they arrived.

"Ishi...gakure."

    Mumbling under his breath he pulled a small pinky sized pencil out of his sash, managed to drop it multiple times, before grumbling, whipping off his glove as he grabbed it, made a few notes, and stuffed it back in before quickly putting the glove back on. As he looked down he stared and gave a quiet sigh, feeling naked in a sense. Normally he would have had his headband wrapped around his sash in plain view, but for obvious reasons he didn't want to be announcing himself as a shinobi from Kirigakure for this mission. The other unfortunate thing that completed the set of feeling completely out of place was the lack of his Uemori blade, locked away at home. 

    As much as the headband was clear for everyone to see, it was likely a weapon such as the Uemori was a beacon of a different sort, and one he simply couldn't risk being spotted with as much as he hated the idea of being without it. If things went to plan he wouldn't have been using it anyways, but it was as much a part of him as an arm these days, and he hated not having it in his hand.

    Every time he read through the information for the mission he would look up at Hisako, never saying anything even if they made eye contact, but simply letting them know they weren't being ignored. Every time he would look for just a few second, perhaps give a nod, them immediately start again reading the mission briefing, wanting every word repeatable in his mind. Finally after a bit of reading he groaned and pulled off his gloves, then his coat, and inside the not terribly large carriage began to get changed. In truth he wanted to be seen leaving the village if anyone was watching, but clearly didn't want to be seen anywhere between there and their next destination before even reaching the docks. Some half way to their destination he managed to have the cart driver pull over as he ran out into the rain to a nearby tree, stuffing his clothes wrapped around his notebook into a barrel, turned it upside down, gave it a loud slap, and ran back to the carriage. He was fully dressed with two hand axes well hidden under his clothes, and his small kobun blade strapped to his hip. He had no other weaponry as he didn't intend to need it, making sure to have his clothing as well as his notebook, for all he hated to part with it, picked up at the earlier drop off point and sent back to the village by a trusted third party after having parted with far more coin than he cared to admit out loud.

---

    Across Masshiro's chest was a pouch that blended in perfectly with the rest of his disguise, holding his documentation so he wouldn't have to make anyone nervous reaching into pockets out of sight. If anyone was to look inside they'd find nothing but the information pertaining to his fake identity, and if the worst were to happen the axes could be explained away as a part of a juggling trick. In the meantime they were well hidden, as were his real intentions with the disguise, fake identification, and the smile plastered across his face for anyone new he met.

    When they were eventually stopped, he let Hisako do his talking, his identification already in hand by the time it was asked for, smiling so wide his eyes were starting to close a bit and holding it out for the closest arm to grab.

"Heeeeere ya go!"

    He hoped either his cheerful put on persona would grab enough positive attention, or this sour looking man would be in no mood to deal with it and want to be done with him that much quicker, so he kept smiling, making eye contact, and waiting for him to take his scroll.

The guard sneered for a moment at the excessively cheery demeanor, being clearly grizzled, scrutinizing the whole thing. He really did not want to deal with this sort of personality today. It was too damn early anyway. But he ultimately decided that the identification scroll was fine and with a flick of the wrist handed it back to the long-haired boy with a smirk. He looked silly, like a little lady.

"You two have a nice visit, but no funny business. Bah... Entertainers." He shook his head returning to his post, meandering uncouthly back to where he had stood before to motion the carriage through.

The wagon would wheel on then with the whip of the reins against the animals pulling it along. On they went, several more hours before they found the nearest town. A sleepy little thing with not much going on it, Hisako had resorted to doodling idly in that time, letting the silence draw on with almost a painful cadence. Occasionally he yawned, but otherwise he doodled and stared out the miniature window. Though upon arriving to town he perked up a little bit.

"Oh fancy," He drawled, but only sarcastically before he glanced towards Masshiro.

"Want to get out here? Walk around? Barely anyone here, might be a waste." But of course he also simply did not want to get out of the carriage.

Their job was simple, to mark down the locations of major villages in the country, including the hidden one. They didn't really need to enter any... But perhaps regardless it was worth noting the town and to see what its name was for map bookkeeping.

[Yamaguchi Masshiro]

"No funny business, I get it. Good one."

    Giving an exaggerated wink he took back the scroll and put it in the pouch, giving a few pats to it. As the carriage moved past his demeanor immediately changed, sitting back in his seat. All semblance of the smile and gleeful personality had vanished with a snap as he refocused on the task at hand. His eyes only momentarily fell on what Hisako was drawing, almost as if a reflex of the movement more than any interest in the art itself. He mostly had his face glued at whatever they were passing by outside, and his mind reciting the text of the mission he had memorized obsessively in his mind.

    His attention didn't shift much at Hisako's comment, but having another voice aside from the one in his head did drag his eyes over towards them at the very least. 

"Not especially."

    There wasn't much to see here that he was interested in, and truthfully he didn't want to pull any attention to them at all for now. 

"Trying to get a sense of how many people are even around here. I can't tell if it's the time of day or if this place is as boring as it looks."

    He hadn't activated his Jaakugan, so he couldn't go about literally picking out individual people, but he could actively sense enough to tell how crowded the area was. This was certainly one of those cases where he preferred to be overly prepared, even if it was gathering a bit of extra information he wouldn't ever need. Reaching into the pouch he had stuffed the scroll back in earlier, he tugged at a barely visible piece of thread and opened a compartment holding a small piece of paper and a pencil, taking notes as he usually did.

"Keep your eyes open for a sign if you can. A name for this place."

    By this point he had become rather good at writing in fairly small handwriting, often having to use small pieces of paper or parchment he could easily hide.

Hisako was not particularly interested in looking for a sign, but he was part of the entourage so he grumbled and looked out the window idly, trying to appear as if he were bored more than anything - which he was. It had been such a long journey he was over all the movement at this point.

"There it is..." He pointed it out, "Ah Tera Mura... Temple Village, how creative." Hisako huffed, and indeed as they continued on not stopping since Masshiro did not want to stop, they moved around and to another rocky path. Stone Country was as it was said - extremely stony. There were few paths that were pretty and grassy and the most there was to look at were the different outcroppings of boulders, stones and rocks. With an occasional temple like thing engraved into it. This particular village though very small had a decent amount of temples and other such things in it from the looks of it on the outside. But they would never know fully without stepping foot. As long as Masshiro was satisfied, Hisako would have to agree and move on - he was just the side gig here.

On they went, moving through the land occasionally coming across a village. Some bigger, some smaller... Masshiro's job was to take down everything, and on occasion Hisako would help him out with a name. Otherwise they moved.

Then, a large signature - if Masshiro was paying attention - would come up, like a beacon. It was hard to say if the village they were approaching was the main one, but it certainly had people capable of combat. They slowed, having to move carefully and quietly.

"Gonna get out here?" Hisako asked with slight mischief to his eyes, wondering if Mass had the gall to explore a village with a clear guard at the gates.

OWL

[Yamaguchi Masshiro]

    At most he gave a few glances at Hisako, not too perturbed by the fact he was bored or otherwise at this point, as he wasn't exactly excited himself. He was stuck in this shaking box of motion sickness waiting to happen with someone he wasn't exactly familiar with, for a mission that was little more than taking notes. The last part he didn't mind so much, as that was his shtick anyways most of the time, but he preferred to do it his own way, with his own notebook, wearing his own clothing. 

    Giving a bit of a nod in response, he began taking his notes bout the name of the area they were passing as well as quick notes about both the main points of of entrance and exit they took, how long it took to ride through, the time the amount of time they were stopped even. This was where his small handwriting paid off. It would certainly have been slower to go by foot in this land, and likely incredibly uncomfortable given the weather, but it felt strange sitting in this carriage watching it go by with so few areas usable for riding paths. There wasn't much to see, but what there was stood out, further making his note taking easy, even if it made it incredibly boring.

    Every house or building they passed, every village they went through, it was all written down in specific detail. The terrain itself was so bland that it came to the point Masshiro was writing down when they would take slight angled turns along the road. The idea was he would just about retrace their steps with his eyes closed, or more appropriately in the pitch black of the night. Sighing to himself as he stared out the window, it had been a while since there was another worth taking a note of, until suddenly there was, with an upcoming village ahead. His eyes narrowed as he sat up a bit, immediately writing, much faster now with the paper pressed up against the window. 

    Stomping once on the floor to make sure Misako was fully alert, he made a motion with his head towards the village.

"I can't say who they are, but there are quite a few people here that might have eyes on us. I can only guess local shinobi, definitely able to put up a fight."

    His first assumption was that if they could keep track of others in the area there was no reason they couldn't try to do the same. Activating his Jaakugan he took a deep breath, exhaling and looking around them, taking it all in slowly. Looking over at Hisako, flashing his activated doujutsu, he just narrowed his eyes for a moment as he looked around a bit further, before a single blink revealed it had been deactivated once more.

"Do we need to get out here? I'd rather not draw attention if we don't have to. We don't exactly blend in."

Hisako grunted at Masshiro when he stomped his foot like a petulant brat to get his attention. They were already in such close proximity, simply speaking would have more than sufficed. He stared at the other male with a leveled gaze, before looking out towards the village that they were about to pass on by unless Masshiro asked for the carriage to stop. They were on a long journey after all, as travelers.

Entertaining travelers.

When Masshiro activated his dojutsu, he would find a much heavier layer of chakra signatures in the village. It was clearly a village that was run by shinobi, though it was not quite thick enough to determine it as a hidden village and as they got closer - but ultimately veered off the path to the right from actually entering the gate - Masshiro would be able to see that the name of the village was printed, which meant it was not hidden. There were no symbols or elements inscribed anywhere. Indeed, it was just a large village base. Something that was not uncommon in Mizu no Kuni too with many shinobi outposts and holdings in the country among different villages.

It was something Masshiro would have to note down, before they started to exit its immediate vicinity.

"We're just performers, who cares where we get out?" Hisako chuckled shaking his head, thinking the other to be silly for exercising such great caution... Not that he was some great shinobi to say such things though, he just had opinions.

On they went if Masshiro decided not to get out...

And after about half the day was gone and the sun was on the other side of the sky they started to encroach on a mass in the distance staged on the road and Hisako raised an eyebrow towards it.

"What's that?" But they were too far to see clearly.

OWL

[Yamaguchi Masshiro]

    His eyes narrowed again as he immediately started taking his notes, barely paying attention to his current team member. A part of him wanted to stop and get a closer look at what was going on, but he didn't want any of the consequences that would almost certainly come with that action. As they passed by he looked at every inch of the outskirts he could, once again looking for entrance points, weak points, and taking notes.

    It was becoming more apparent that the two stuck in this carriage were on very different sides of the personality spectrum, yet similar enough to get on each others nerves if they actually had bothered to strike up conversation for more than once an hour. Neither wanted to be here in this vehicle, but Masshiro was actually rather happy to be on this mission. It wasn't exciting, but it was interesting and more than that it was gathering valuable information.

    Looking over at Hisako, he gave a bit of a grumble, then looked down at the clothes he was wearing, finding them equally as ridiculous as the first time he had been handed them. 

"Because I don't want to have to draw attention. We look like performers, so the expectation would be we perform. I gather information, I use said information, and I hit people with a big stick. What I don't do is perform. Not well anyways."

    Masshiro was quite frankly a little on the paranoid side, not necessarily in an unhealthy way, but he was cautious and focused. If he had it his way he'd be sneaking by unseen, sitting somewhere for hours watching, but this outfit, this situation, it was far out of his comfort zone. This was obviously hiding in plain sight, but he did far better hiding in places with no sight.

    His eyes narrowed as he had been leaning against the window for a while, frankly tired of staring at rocks and boulders, leaving a face smudge as he leaned back. Rubbing it away with his arm, he narrowed his eyes and leaned forward, smacking his face into the window as if it was suddenly not there. Rubbing his nose he grunted and activated his Jaakugan once more.

"I'm...not sure."

The dojutsu would reveal several signatures, it was hard to tell of what magnitude immediately since they seemed to blend together in a way due to being so close together. Yet as they got closer and closer, and the sun dipped lower and lower, it would quickly become clear that these were several individuals and they had chakra signatures of a substantial amount. The carriage approached and someone came up halting them in their tracks.

"Oi!" Someone from the outside shouted.

"Who is that in there? Ishi checkpoint, get out of the carriage, show yourselves and present your documents." This could be a peaceful mission but it very well could not be. The checkpoint was either legitimate, or not but it was up to Masshiro to determine that much. It was definitely not immediately clear as the checkpoint itself did not have any official structures and the man standing there, it was hard to make him out as he was backlit by the extreme amount of sun that was dipping towards the horizon more and more.

Hisako glanced towards his companion then and with a shrug, slowly started to pull himself out of the carriage, very slowly, his hands in the air.

"Hey hey, just some traveling entertainers. Got the paperwork, wanna see it?" He was luring the man closer to him, and speaking in a vague quantity as if it could be just him, or not. It would give Masshiro a moment to look around and be certain that this was a legal checkpoint...

OWL

[Yamaguchi Masshiro]

    His eyes narrowed as they got closer, focusing harder to try and discern one signature from the next. Between his doujutsu and his sensory skills he could tells just enough to once more taken notes on the amount he could see, but focusing so hard on them he hadn't been paying attention otherwise until they began to slow down. His eyes shifted as he saw they were being flagged to stop, and immediately deactivated his doujutsu, sliding the note and pencil into his pouch and pulling the string to tighten the pocket back up.

    By the time he heard the loud exclamation he had already pulled out his papers once more, giving Hisako little more than a nod. Taking a deep breath he put the large fake smile back on as he heard someone calling from outside. Without his doujutsu to help, the most he could do was try and discern the chakra levels of those around them in less obvious ways, trying to get an idea of who else was closest to them. He hadn't gotten out just yet, sitting up against the inside and pressed against the wood of the carriage walls and the seat. 

    One hand was rested against the carriage to use it to push off if he needed to move quickly, the other was now behind his back, sliding under his clothes and gripping the handle of his kobun. He wouldn't have otherwise thought much of it, as stopping them at a checkpoint wasn't an issue, but he didn't much like being asked to get out. Pulling his hand away from his weapon momentarily, he created a single handseal, creating a water clone sitting across from him and motioned with his head for it to get out, discreetly handing his papers off as they did.

    The clone was now standing outside next to Hisako offering up his papers, putting on that same fake smile, while Masshiro stayed inside the carriage once more activating his Jaakugan. There was a moment of paranoia that washed over him as he kept looking around, and instead of trying to search for chakra signatures, he used the Yamaguchi ability of Vitality Detection, looking for anyone close by that was Shinobi or otherwise.

Vitality Detection Technique:

allows the user to detect the vital energies of any being within the range of their Jaakugan, even through obstructions, with the user's range limited only by their proficiency in the use of the Jaakugan and this technique. It should be stated that this ability does not grant any form of telescopic vision or the ability to discern anything aside from life energies at a distance or through obstructions. As with any other Jaakugan techniques, the absolute maximum range of this ability is 10km

As Masshiro let out the water clone Hisako grimaced a bit but didn't say a word to try and not blow their cover.

"Yeah, I want to see them. Hand them over!"

As Masshiro inspected however he would find that everyone here were shinobi, but they were not particularly impressive ones, genin at most? Though that did not mean it was a cake walk, with numbers such as these it could be the case that they could get overwhelmed by sheer force. They had to be careful regardless of how they proceeded.

Hisako handed over the paperwork and presumably the clone would as well. The man inspected and scrunched up his nose.

"Strange papers, they look worn."

"We've been traveling a while."

"Your country doesn't take well to give you nice paperwork?" The man scoffed, still holding onto them, retreating a bit.

"Hey! Don't walk away with it!"

"Just gotta make sure it isn't fake. If it is, we'll have to destroy it and detain you two."

That wasn't a good sound.

"Oh come on, sir, I'm not sure that's all that necessary." He called out in a sing-song voice then, and his manipulative voice seemed to halt the man in his tracks for a moment, turning his head. It would give Masshiro time to strike out with one big attack to at least try and take out the majority of the individuals here to save their paperwork so that they could finish their journey across the rest of the country...

OWL

[Yamaguchi Masshiro]

    While looking around here was still listening to the conversation, grimacing a bit as he tried to stay hidden and not make a sound. Taking note of the people around, narrowing his eyes to try and see just how many there were; more than he cared for there to be. He rolled his eyes listening to the commentary of their papers, then turned to see through the wall of the carriage at the one who at taken their papers walking away. 

    Things were getting a bit out of hand it seemed, and by this point he was more than confident they were either leaving without their papers, or they were leaving with them and blood on their hands. The clone  began walking over towards Hisako as Masshiro waited for a moment  and climbed out the window opposite the door and crouched, making three handseals in quick succession, then moving forward again. A heavy fog began to cover the area around them, but kept using his vitality detection technique active, and waited till the fog was heavy enough to hide in and got as low as he could and still sprint.

    Running towards his clone his simply said in a quiet tone "Grab the papers", as he kept running. He was just close enough that Hisako would have heard him as well, as he moved towards the man holding their papers. There was a quick motion as he reached behind and drew his kobun, and in a single quick motion attempted to slice the man's throat, immediately sheathing his weapon. He was hoping he would either kill the man then and there, or cause enough of an issue that he would drop the papers for either Hisako or the clone to grab in the confusion of the fog and the sneak attack.

    If they were forced to cause a seen regardless, he hoped the fog would at least keep it in their favor for as long as was possible.

The problem with the fog was that it was very obviously a shinobi technique that belonged to Kirigakure no Sato and thus Masshiro's unnatural fog that rolled in alerted the man grabbing the papers from Hisako.

"It's Kirigakure!" He shouted, which immediately alerted the rest of the individuals... Which almost certainly meant that Masshiro would have to kill everyone here or risk compromising not only the mission but also the village as a whole. The man however quick to shout was not quick enough to respond to Masshiro slicing into him and killing him on the spot. That, however, immediately spelled trouble. Hisako grabbed the papers from the man and ducked underneath the carriage covering his head. He was a civilian, so he was not fit for this kind of fight he just hoped the carriage would be enough to protect him against the oncoming onslaught.

Masshiro was not the only one capable of sensory and so a shock of lightning was coming for him from the heavens - or it seemed that way - made stronger by the particles of water in the air as lightning crackled, flashing faster than most could hope to dodge. It was in Masshiro's best interest to move, though he would unlikely be able to dodge fully as the lightning was reacting with the mist too.

    Despite the jutsu giving away where he was from, he wasn't too concerned with what they knew if they weren't alive to know it for long. He had every intention of either killing these men or making them unable to talk once he had moved from the carriage. It wasn't as if he was a brutal murderer just waiting for a chance to fight, but the fact was, once he made the decision to fight all manner of mercy was gone. This was part of where his given alias had originated from, as he was normally a fairly calculating individual who took his time with what he did, watching and waiting, but when the switch was flipped, he was like a different person.

    Turning towards Hisako he spun the blade in his hand and dropped it in front of Hisako, looking at it then at him as if telling him to pick it up.

"Stay hidden, use it if you have to. Don't move."

    Taking a deep breath, breathing in the dense mist around him, he reached into his clothes and pulled out his two axes. Which a quick rolling of his neck he ran off back into the fog and right at the closest target. The clone was already running back towards Hisako, and before he could grab a hold of the blade the clone simply shook his head and picked it up, standing in front of him. 

    Given the others he had spotted earlier, there were only so many locations attacks could come from, but he could sense the chakra forming above, his eyes widening as he started to sprint. Raising his arms he slipped the axes under either armpit, then quickly raised his hand to make a single handseal he used the mist to partially hide his movement further as he seemed to vanish for a moment into the mist itself as he jumped forward out of the trajectory of the lightning strike. It was enough to get him out of the way of the direct hit itself, but the mist helped it travel just enough to give him a jolt that stung, making his right leg go numb for a few moments as he regained his footing. 

    He turned his head as he disabled his vitality detection and his Jaakugan altogether, using his ability to sense chakra more directly and actively to feel all around him instead of simply focusing in, letting his eyes rest. His attention was on the closest source of chakra from a shinobi he could find, charging towards them. Masshiro wasn't the fasted shinobi, but he was far from slow in mid sprint, as he reached for his axes, allowing him to grab them and move with more agility once more. Lowering his body down he raised his axes up and brought them across his body in a slashing motion, cutting towards the shinobi's chest with both, attempting to bury them into their chest and hopefully take them out.

Hisako was already under the carriage when the weapon was dropped to him, and he frankly wasn't about to risk reaching out for it so instead he just kept himself huddled underneath the carriage hoping that this battle would be over soon... Except he felt the lightning strike and move through the mist which meant he felt a tingle in his muscles - even if the attack was not meant for him directly.

In the mean time, Masshiro was semi-struck by lightning but was still trying to kind of get out of the way of the mist. Unfortunately it didnt' seem to be working because whoever he was fighting was able to point out exactly where he was in the mist, and as he approached the man was ready, leaping back and away from Masshiro in one leap, someone else coming from his immediate left as he attacked, using that moment of vulnerability when one was in motion to throw a kunai directly at his left side. But the kunai was meant to be dodged in truth, it was what came after that would be quite difficult to get out of the way of - it exploded.

The one on the left would leap back and away from Masshiro quickly as he had thrown the kunai knowing what would come after... Masshiro on the other hand? Well he would have to think really quickly and also be able to stop his momentum in the midst of an attack somehow.
