Suki Ono was a loud 12 year old ninja of the Hidden Mist Village. As a Genin level ninja, she was fortunately picked to be a transfer student among two others and a teacher to the Konohagare Village Hidden Leaf Village. After 7 hours of traveling and stopping, they finally arrived and were greeted by Hokage the 3rd.

            "Greetings to you. I'm here on behalf of my village and I would like to welcome you to Konohagare." He said, bowing.

            "We thank you for so kindly accepting us." Minako answered. Minako was the 22 year old Jounin who led Suki and the two other ninjas, Yoko, a quiet shy girl and Tsuyoshi, an arrogant young male.

            "Please follow me."

            As they walked through the village, Suki was surprised that at such a late hour, it would be so full of activity. Lanterns hung from nearly invisible strings and children of all ages ran through the streets, giggling, She glanced over at her two teammates and noted that they too were also staring about in awe. Mist village was nothing like this. At this hour, everyone would be asleep and the streets would be deserted. Well, there certainly would be something to talk about when she got home. IF she ever got home.

            They stopped in front of a small inn and were escorted to their rooms. The Hokage stood outside, discussing things with Minako, but it was too soft to hear. Suki flopped down onto the nearest bed, her eyelids beginning to droop. Tomorrow was going to be a long day….
