The following morning the Heikokage called Hien, Kyo as well as the rest of the Jounin's into her office for a meeting. "I've come to a decision," Asa paused as she looked out at the group of Jounin in her office to make certain she had all of their attention. "We will be holding a Chuunin exam within the upcoming month.
In an effort to increase are forces as we face off against the terrorist organization known as the Horde." A low rumble could be heard coming from the Jounin as they spoke amongst each other. Hands began to rise, Asa gestured for them to hold their inquiries. "In truth this event is truly being held in an attempt to lure to the Horde to us." She looked out toward the crowd as the low roar began to get louder, as concerns were being made. "Questions?" Asa asked, she knew there would be plenty.
A Kunoichi raised her hand and was gestured to speak, "This plan seems a little dangerous Milady, why would want to lure to a place where are friends and family live?" Asa placed her hands behind her back as she took a deep breath before saying "I've put a lot of thought into this and we are having a hard time locating them since they have multiple holes to crawl into.
It's a bold move, but, I believe that if we can get them to come the exam and reveal themselves we may be able to capture some of them." Asa knew how ludicrous the plan sounded but she was confident it would succeed. Hien raised his hand next "I don't like it, it's just as it was mentioned before, unsafe. We have no way of knowing what's in store if we went through with this plan. On the other hand, this Chuunin exam is necessary. If we do go with the strategy you suggested, would the losses that we are guaranteed to take be worth it for the reward. Because we don't know if we will catch a big fish or not.
With that being said, were not left with many options." Hien faded off into his thoughts as he spoke. Kyo raised his hand after listening to Hien "What's going to happen with the pursuit of the Horde outside of the village and the allied squads?" Asa turned her attention toward Kyo, saying "I sent word to the other Kage's and thankfully they agreed to help expedite the process of forming these teams. The TeiBanChi squads will still continue their search for Horde outpost." Asa continued discussing how the security within the exam would be the strictest it has ever been. It was mentioned that the other islands would also be sending candidates for the exam.
Once the meeting ended Kyo made his way to midtown, where he walked toward a ten story complex. He rang the door bell, a few second passed, a young girl whose hair was shortened to a fade on both sides of her head, but, kept a mohawk that started small in the back of her head and ascended as it reached her widows peak. "Sensei, what are you doing here?" Yuri said as she looked at her teacher, closing the door behind him. "I need to discuss some things with you are your parents home?"
Kyo said as he made his way up the stairway. Yuri lived on the third floor of this complex. Her family owned, operated the structure, and it had been that way for a long time. It wasn't weird to see a clan living in a building like this a lot of them did. Since Banju wasn't big enough for all the the clans to own property. The next best thing was to own a structure such as this. "No, they went out to breakfast, I slept in. What is it you wanted to talk about?" Yuri said curiously. The Mushin building was well kept, the walls were painted black. The tiles on the floor in the stairwell looked as though they had been cut out of marble.
The wood of the stairs and doors looked rich as if they had been freshly polished. "We'll discuss it once we get in your house? Have you seen Mai lately?" Kyo said as he continued to follow Yuri up the staircase til they arrived at her door. Yuri opened the door saying "It's funny you would mention Mai, because she's here." Yuri said with a smile on her face as they walked into the living room and saw Mai on the couch. Kyo smiled to himself, remembering when Mai and Yuri used to be at each others necks before and now they got along so well. "What are you smiling about Sensei?" Mai asked as she watched the smile on Kyo's face.
Her words woke him from his nostalgia, "It's nothing, I'm glad your both here," A silence set in as Kyo spoke. Yuri sat down next to Mai both of them knew something important was about to be said. "Were getting a new teammate, and the Chuunin Exams are going to be held next month." Kyo nodded his head while he watched the dumbfounded looks on his students face. Yuri opened her mouth to speak but said nothing, "This is bullshit Sensei! Yagi just died the funeral wasn't but a few days ago. And, now there just gonna stick us with someone we don't even know. No I refuse, were fine as we are."
Tears fell down Mai's cheeks as she stood on the couch and spoke. Her words stung, it was true Kyo felt it was to soon too. He also agreed that they needed more ninja to fight the Horde, "This is an order from the Heikokage, besides from my understanding he's not an academy ninja." Yuri's head shot up "He?! It's a guy, I don't know if I can take this Sensei, can't we just, not have a member and it be us three?" Kyo shook his head, he felt like a father giving bad news to his daughter's, he watched his students and wanted to do more but there wasn't anyway he could heal there hearts. "I'm sorry girls. . ., I'll see you two tomorrow in the practice field." Kyo said to the sobbing girls as he walked out of the door. He wasn't very good at consoling the girls when they got sad, that was usually what Yagi did. Kyo took a deep breath he now had to go meet his new student, after having read the kid's profile he was dreading it.
