Prior to moving into the docks, Shikayumi had stopped briefly for some much needed food, and rest. Trail rations for a shinobi always seemed so stale, and dry as it fell apart in her mouth. As she ate her remaining rations, the young jonin pulled some documents about Mist//Leaf relations. She looked at photo copies of the drowned woman, most pictures emphasizing the acidic marks. Some documentation was paper-clipped to one of the photographs; explaining who, and what, the Temuri clan was all about. "Why didn't I hear about any of this in the Medical center?" she questioned as she continued to dig through the file.
Once her break was over, Shikayumi was quick to continue forth towards the Mist village. Time began to pass as the air around her grew thick with Mist. Slowly, it became thicker, and thicker, until finally she could only see a few feet in front of her. After reading that file, Shikayumi became suspicious as she pulled the front of her cloak over her mouth. Seeing how the Temuri clan was noted for acidic Mist, she didn't want to run the risk of internal damage. Cautiously moving forward on the trail, she arrived at a dock that seemed inhabited by shinobi. Or, at least shinobi were here recently. Maintaining awareness, Shikayumi waited to seize someones attention.
Time started to pass as the docks quickly became a ghost town. It was like the place was suddenly, and abruptly abandoned. "Where is everyone?" she pondered as she heard a rustling to her right. Pulling out a tagged kunai, she took a defensive stance when she heard someone call out.
"Put that blade down, missy, if you plan on keeping your head." She lowered her blade ever so slightly as a mad came out of one of the buildings. "What business do you have here in the Mist?"
The man seemed fairly old; too old, and too worn out to carry a fight. "I'm here on a diplomatic manner with the Mizukage." Her right hand peaked out of her cloak to reveal her mission scroll.
The old man didn't seem very pleased; as if he couldn't trust her. "Alright...Ill take you across." He turned to the boats in preparation to the Mist as Shikayumi boarded promptly. Once on the open water, Shikayumi began to notice strange things about her surroundings. For one, the air had a peculiar taste to it; almost like copper...or blood. Secondly there seemed to be strange occurrences in the water below. Almost looked like, underwater bobbers as she took a mental note.
"You're a Nara...aren't you?" the ferryman asked in a tone of confidence. "What makes you say that?" Shikayumi responded in an open-ended answer. "That marking, the one on your wrist. It's the mark of the Nara is it not?" Shikayumi knew that the she had the Nara mark on her wrist guard, but she didn't think the ferryman was being that perceptive. "What of it?" She asked in an unpleasant tone. "Oh, nothing. As the bloody Mist entails, we see many marks come, but many never leave. I'm sure some of your elders blood still stain this village." The ferryman seemed sick in the head; clearly a veteran from ages ago. Shikayumi would ignore the ferryman for the duration of the ride across.
Upon arrival, Shikayumi took little, to no, time as she bolted down the trail, and into the Mist. With a means to peace clutched in her hand, she would have to hurry back to the Hokage. Suddenly, the density of the Mist began to dissipate, and Shikayumi would once again have clear sight of her surroundings. Next stop...Konoha.

Rose parted to the docks where his family's private boat awaited, "Bonjour monsieur Eadric. Ca va?" Rose coo'd out to the family friend who looked over his shoulder, "Ah tres bien monsieur St.Pierre. Ou allon-nous?" He said with a hearty smile as Rose boarded the large ship, "Le Pays du Vent." Rose said as the man nodded and would take to the helm of the ship were the anchor would be brought out of the water and they would begin their journey.
™ UNTAPPED POWER The puppeteer can, every five posts, unleash a massive lion head at the target with a sealing jutsu inside of it. This is essentially the only sealing jutsu puppeteers can use. It costs no chakra to release, as it's considered a tool. It can be released from the body of any A ranked (or higher) puppet, and if the lion's head manages to latch onto the target with its sharp teeth, their ability to use chakra will be sealed and they're at your mercy. This cannot be escaped with substitution, because it cancels the technique if it hits you. It is essentially Chiyo's ability.
