B: Upon arriving at the courtyard he would hear two names called "Keldran and Seika", Keldran would have already rushed out with his squad and Seika readying hers. The next name would somewhat surprise B as he looked up at the podium towards the Hokage "Lil B you will be leading an adhoc squad" would be the sentence that left his mouth. "Me?" he would think to himself as he heard the names of those he would be leading into battle "Ryouta, Kei, Kumiko." two of which he had met in their last endeavour a almost two years ago the other unkown to him, that would soon change as he heard a quiet voice speak out her name as she stared at him, with her stood Kei which would make sense as they were both in the root branch of the anbu. "Good to know..." he would say in a monotoned voice his insides still rampaging in angst as he knew what he was about to get into and do. "To the front gate... Now." he would say as Ryouta emerged from the crowd and stood beside Kei, "The fastest route is by the rooftops keep close..." would be the last thing he would say as he took a running jump towards the closest roof. After about 4 minutes of B briskly running he would jump down to see team Seika taking off on their set of horses leaving clouds of dust behind. B and his squad would make their way towards the men tending to the 4 horses that stand waiting for B, Kei, Ryouta, and Kyoko to saddle up on and take off. B would get the orders and directions from the men as his team saddled up on the horses equipped with rations and supplies that would last each at least a few days. "Diamond formation... Kyoko behind to the left of me, Ryouta behind and to the right of me, Kei take the rear. Let's go!" He would say as his crimson eyes flared as if a fire had been lit in them as he kicked the sides of his horse slightly getting it to charge forward as the adhoc squad of genin took off into the night behind the two squads ahead of them towards Suna.

Kumiko: was quiet, as she watched everything unfold. Kei stepped up beside her and she tilted her head towards him in acknowledgement. “We were called I game. Eito has done well in making sure that there is someone watching out for me. I have a long way to go.” The woman said as she looked down at her hands quietly for a moment. When he asked her about the people present she opened her mouth to speak to him quietly, waiting to see if her seal would prevent her from speaking to him. As it seemed Eito had placed him with her, it was apparently alright for her to speak to him. She quietly began telling him about the people present at the meeting, and when the teams were called out she turned her head towards the individual that was placed at the head of the team that she had been placed on. The lilac haired woman slowly made her way towards him, bowing her head politely as she waited to see what the young man would dictate for their group. “I’m Kyoko Kumiko, I am a researcher and something of a strategist. I will do what I can to aid you in this situation.” With that the woman would quiet and follow the command of those around her, mostly so she could be assured that she was following the right path. Still though, in the back of her mind that self-doubt started to creep, but something started to blossom in her chest. She had been specifically assigned to do this, to go on this, that means someone saw something in her that she herself may not understand yet. None of her family had been called, but she had. They were probably on the reserve team that was showing up later, but that didn’t’ matter. What mattered is she had been placed specifically. A kernel of hope blossomed in her chest, as her shoulders rolled back and a spark of confidence entered her being. Perhaps she wasn’t so useless after all.
