Hoshiko stood watching as Kabuto and his small group set out for the Hidden Leaf Village. She had her own mission to do there but she was leaving at a different time. She let a small sigh escape her lips as she watched them. Orochimaru walked up behind her putting both of his hands on her shoulders. She tensed as he let his tongue slip around her face to lick her cheek.
"Now, now little dove. Do not worry you will be seeing him in a little while." Orochimaru stated with a smirk as Shiko stood stiff in his grasp. He let his tongue slide along her face, as she flinched slightly. That was the only thing that got to her really. She hated him and his extremely long tongue with a passion. Well it was not him that she hated, it was rather the this that he did. At her trembling he released her from his grip. A sly smirk broke on his lips as she turned to look at him with her green eyes. "Little dove you have work to do. You should be getting ready, after all you are going to leave in what? Two days now?" Orochimaru stated putting his hand under his chin.
Hoshiko turned to leave and do as he said but he stopped her with his tongue wrapping around her arm. "I would not get to close to him. Who knows what your line of work has in store for you. You don't want to hurt him do you?" Her 'master' stated or rather asked with the smirk still formed on his lips. Hoshiko shook her head no, then headed off again after he left go of her.
Kabuto looked around the gate that led out of the Sound Village. He did not spot Hoshiko anywhere. He wondered if she had already left for her own mission. No, there she was. She was standing on a never by roof. He shook his head, it was just like her to be on some roof. He then saw a shadow fall over her, 'Orochimaru' he thought as he stepped out with the rest of his team. 'I wonder what he wants with her right now.' Kabuto let his mind wonder with thoughts of Hoshiko and Orochimaru.
Hoshiko walked into her small house with an angered look. 'How dare he tell me how to do my job!' She thought as she hit the wall closest to the door. She slammed the door shut and sat down at the table trying hard not to let her anger get the best of her. She breathed deeply relaxing. She went up to the roof to watch the sun set as she normally did at this time, only this time Kabuto did not show up to ask her any questions. She sighed to herself, it was rather lonely when you got down to it.
A few days later Hoshiko set out on her own, moving through the forest quickly. Orochimaru had wished her a god hunting before she had set off from the village, she promised herself a good bath when she got to the leaf village after his tongue once again touched her. She shivered at the thought.
Hoshiko reached the Hidden Leaf Village in a few hours without taking any rest. She stopped at the gates, shifting her katanas on her hip so they seemed less noticeable. The guards stood alert as she approached, they knew there was something about her that they did not like.
"State your business here!" One shouted on the far right. Hoshiko looked over at him with a raised brow. She shook her head slightly.
"I'm here to over see the Chunnin exams! I was sent by my master. A ninja in the mountains! I was told not to give his name!" Hoshiko stated smoothly. The two guards looked at each other the back down at the girl.
"Give us your name!" The one on the left called this time. 'Damn! I forgot that part.' Hoshiko thought for a moment then smirked.
"My name is Michi Dai-Tai!" Hoshiko called back making the two ninja look at each other again before opening the gates.
"Go straight to the Hokage's place!" Called one of them as the silver haired girl entered the village. She rolled her eyes, her mouth staying shut for a while, now she had to find her target. She looked around the village. This was not going to be easy. She watched the many children, old folk, ninja, and anyone else who was out on the street. She sighed softly to herself walking around to try to find where the teams for the Chunnin exam where.
