The time in the snow has ended (Snow to Fire Country)

Suuchi had packed Jiyuu a hearty meal for him before he set off. It was a entire slab of pork untouched and fresh from the market in town. It was the least he could do he had said to Jiyuu after for what he has done. Jiyuu and Suuchi had stayed in the village for that week to help out with the people who were going through some of the side effects of the chakra that was poisoning the people. Jiyuu was the little assistant as Suuchi was treating them carefully and cautiously. With the two help, they were able to set things straight within the village and it began to move again after awhile. The relations between the neighboring villages had improved slightly and the people began to see a bright change now and forever. They hoped that nothing like this would happen to them again.

Jiyuu was packed up and ready. He had gotten the food from Suuchi and now had his winter attire on. Ah, he couldn't wait to get out of the snow and onto some warmth. Much as he didn't mind the snow, it would be a nice change of pace. Suuchi smiled at him "Are you sure you can't stay a little bit longer? If only could reconsidered"

Jiyuu shook his head disappointedly "No sir. I'm afraid I cannot do that. My mission is only half way done at this point. I have to take my travels toward fire country." he grabbed his sachel and placed it over his shoulder and went over to the door to turn it. He stopped and then turned to Suuchi. He grinned "Don't worry about me. I'm quite sure I'll be back when the time arrives. This isn't goodbye my friend, this is just a fairwell" He went over and hugged him. Suuchi embraced him before they let go. Jiyuu tapped him on the shoulder and made his way out of the cabin. As Jiyuu was down the path, he saw Suuchi waving at him. Jiyuu waved back and continued on his way downward.

He wondered how everyone was doing in the village right now. Things were moving along nicely for him but he did have some feeling for home right about now. He was missing the food Mizu would make. She would always make a large batch of food while Jiyuu was away at times. She would add more meat into the batch because she understood his love for the food. She always treated him like he was his son and never thought of him as a foster child. Jiyuu smiled being reminded of Mizu as she acted so motherly towards him. He even had a missing feeling for Kaze, regardless of his crazy training regiments and ridiculous amounts of information he would cram into him. Though he was glad for it because he was able to solve the case with that good amount of information. He would have to thank Kaze when he got home. Jiyuu tapped his chin and then shook his head. Nah, he wouldn't do that otherwise he would hear Kaze gloat about it all the time.

The weather was beginning to warm up the farther away he was getting farther and farther from snow country. He began to see that the surroundings was beginning to change. There was no snow on the branches, he could hear the chirping of birds singing in the warm air. Jiyuu took a deep breath and let out a sigh. How it felt relaxing to breathe in that warm air. He began to take off his warm clothing and stuff inside the satchel. When it was full, he pulled the string and continued on his way to fire country. The next mission he had to do was something that was a little more familar to his liking than most.

Assasination.

Though this wasn't a typical assasination. It wasn't like aiming for a leader of a mercenary group or attacking a missing nin. This was the political assassination, the type where you had to make sure everything was perfect and right, the type that would either me bust or a go for economic control and political control. The assasination that didn't really attract Jiyuu but he took the mission anyway because he believed it would fit his motif as a assassin for the village of Kumogakure. He didn't know how difficult this mission would become but he would only find soon enough that the mission would be more of a life changing thing than any of his missions before this. The mission of the snow was done and now his mission in the fire will begin.
