'''As Alpha drew to Hattori’s side, slowly closing in on the tree, Omega lagged behind for a moment as she sniffed the stuffed animal on the floor which had gone unnoticed. It held a unique smell, different from the two dead bodies and different from their target’s body odour. She then approached Hattori from the right to share this bit of information. '''

'''Meanwhile O’ren’s Byakugan scanned ahead. It wasn’t easy to find but thanks to the Dojutsu’s prowess he managed to spot a empty cup: the type used to drink alcohol with. Furthermore he spotted some footsteps which led away from the tree on a path towards the start of a small trail which seemed to lead downhill. '''

'''Hattori, upon drawing closer, would, together with his wolves, be met with the nasty smell of sour urine. The source of which was a dried up puddle near the tree. As they drew closer they could very clearly see the trail of footsteps.'''

'''If followed, the trail led the Shinobi trio on a downwards sloped path through the dense forest which made it hard to see exactly where they were going. But before long one could smell, hear, or catch a glimpse of a small lake nearby. As you finish making your way down the hill you manage to spot a small boat on the opposite side of the lake which spans about 50 yards or so. '''

'''Not far away from the boat you see what looks like the entrance to a large cave blocked by a huge pile of what looked to be tree trunks. But it was hard to make out more from this distance. First, the lake would have to be crossed in order to get to the cavern. The other 'obvious' option was scaling around the surrounding hills to make a detour which would bring you above the cavern, at which you'd have to make a 15 yard climb down. But perhaps one of you has another idea? The field is yours. '''
