  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Kakashi went to go to the bookstore and pack. Genma went to pack and so did Shikamaru. Rei also went to pack some things, Shoshin was going to do his packing in a little while.

He saw Bijin near Horror and then Horror yell and run off. He didn't like Horror one bit. He asked Alex, "Will you come with us on our quest?" he asked the young man, towering over him.

Confused Bijin looked after Horror. She finally shrugged and smiled at Shoshin. "I'll go pack too. I have to replace all my kunai and shuriken I lost in our flight from those ninjas. I'll meet you outside your apartment in an hour."

"Okay... Alex, i've got to go pack... If you want to come meet us at the hidden leaf village's entrance." Shoshin handed Alex some coins. "Also, if you are coming, you will need these." Shoshin used his short cut by going into the hokage's office and jumping out of her window. Tsunade was very frustrated.

"Everyone uses that as a shortcut now!"

Shoshin went to the bank and withdrew all of his money. he then went back to his house and packed. He grabbed his cat bank and put it in the pack too. he got up and put on his pack. He jumped out of the window and ran to the village's entrance.
Genma was already packed and waiting. Gaara, Temari, and Kankurou had already started to leave. Kakashi arrived at the bookstore. Raidou and Gai walked up to him. "Leaving on the mission we've heard about?" Raidou asked.

Iruka came into the bookstore panting, he had a back pack on. "I just got permission to come on the mission." Iruka said. "Ah! And who's going to watch the academy while you're gone?" Kakashi asked. "Raidou."
Raido stopped. "Me?!?" he was shocked. "Yep... Tsunade ordered it." Kakashi paid for the next two volumes in the series he was, "fond" of. Sakura walked up to them and said, "Tsunade-sama just realized that Raidou was supposed to go on a mission, so she says you need to stay here Iruka-sensei."


Iruka's head sagged. "I've been trying to get out of the village and do something for two weeks..."
"Oh well... can't win 'em all!" Kakashi went to the village's entrance. Genma, Kakashi, and Shsohin sat down on a bench. "It'll be nice going on a mission with you guys again..." Shoshin said. Genma nodded. Izumo and Kotetsu were the watcher's this time.

They waited for whoever was coming. Shikamaru arrived. Then Rei. "What took you so long?" Shoshin asked. "It was... troublesome." Shikamaru sat down on the next bench. Rei sat down on the same bench as Shikamaru.

Shoshi just remebered he said he'd go meet Bijin at his apartment. "OOps... I'll go get Bijin." He jumped from branch to branch until he was where Bijin was. "Sorry for being late!!!!! I forgot i was supposed to meet you here!" He scratched his head and laughed a nervous laugh. "The others are waiting at the entrance to the village, we better hurry or they'll leave without us..." he finally said.

OOC note: btw guys, don forget Shoshin is 21.))

"Tsunade gave me one before i left." he pulled it out and got out two paperweights and set the map on the ground. He put the paperweights on each end. The map led to the rice country and into something called the dragon's lair. "The stone is supposed to be in there somewhere... But besides the scary name, it's a maze in there. And in the rice country sometimes too."
He put the paperweights back in his pack, but then took them out. "Kotetsu, Izumo, i noticed your shceduels kept blowing away, here are a couple of papaerweights."

He handed them the paperweights and they thanked him. He picked the map up and brought it close to Bijin, Shikamaru, and Rei. And then over to Kakashi and Genma. Kakashi stood. "Want a quick battle while we're waiting Shoshin? You never were able to beat me before." he smiled. Shoshin and Kakashi got out in the circle a little out of the village.
"Now hold on, remeber, just like the fights i have with Gai each of us chose a side. The battle will be rock paper scissors." Shoshin was annoyed but stepped forward. "1 2 3!" Kakashi had a rock and Shoshin scissors. Shoshin had lost. He went back and sat down.

"I see we have rocks for the map... And the map for the rock..." Bijin commented dryly. She was hoping they could get going soon.

"Have you met Horror and Alex, Shikamaru?" Bijin asked. Shikamaru shrugged. "Saw them at the Hokage's office."

Bijin didn't know what else to say and fell silent. She leaned back and looked up at the sky.
"So what's the story with Orochimaru and you?" Shikamaru asked. Bijin sat up and looked over at him. "Uh.. well...let's say... he is a nightmare from my past that I wish would go away forever. He stole a year of my life..." Bijin looked profoundly sad suddenly.

"Yeah, he seems to be good at that... You are lucky it was only a year." Shikamaru agreed. Bijin looked over at him.
"You wouldn't say that if you knew him. He is as evil as the demons he hungers for control over..." Bijin responded quietly. Shikamaru looked over at her a moment then nodded.
"You know he was originally a hidden leaf ninja.... one of the three legendary sennin." Shikamaru replied. Bijin was shocked.
"No... you mean Tsunade-sama... and Jiraiya-sama were... were part of his team?" She asked incredulously. Shikamaru nodded.
"Yes," he affirmed for her.
"Jiraiya tried to free me once but Orochimaru fled with me. At the river of sorrow... they were battling..." Bijin began to tremble with fear at the memory, her eyes wide with terror.

"Shikamaru! That's enough! I know you're just trying to help but that's enough!" Shoshin used his byakugan. His long black hair was going right in the wind. "Sigh... How troubles-" he was interupted by Naruto. "Hiya! i heard you were going on a mission with that demon thingy!" Kakashi sighed. 'That's the last thing we need while we're waiting... Naruto...' he thought. "... And so i ran into you going to the ramen shop!" he grinned.

"Oh! Then don't let us keep you waiting!" Kakashi smiled. Naruto knew what he said but he thought of ramen and was gone in an instant.

Shikamaru gazed impassively over at Shoshin then returned his attention to Bijin. "I can imagine how bad it must have been, he is one of our worst criminals."
"Yes, even the snake demon he summons is getting irritated with his attitude. Orochimaru is not good to anyone unless he has an ulterior motive," Bijin sighed. Shikamaru nodded taking in the information like a sponge. Every scrap of information on an enemy was valuable and he knew it. He studied Bijin a few moments as he pondered why Orochimaru had used her. She had looked away at Shoshin and smiled at Naruto's interruption.

The arrogant Neji walked by and Bijin frowned. She did not like him. He always acted like everyone else was so far beneath him, it always made Bijin feel sorry for Ten-ten and Rock Lee. She did her best to stay out of Neji's notice in all situations. Shikamaru raised an eyebrow noticing the frown she thought she had hidden but little escaped his notice.
