    Mission:

    The early afternoon was cool in the Land of Water that day as fall starting to turn toward winter. Soon ice and snow would fall in abundance across the land and fishermen and other such aquatic trades would come in for the incoming weeks. Winter lasted a bit over in the Land of Water although the ice and snow only made the waters difficult to manage for a few weeks at best. Ice and snow would still be prevalent in the region, but the water itself wouldn't stay cold enough to make things too much of an issue for such men and woman so while the land would see white frost for months, soon the fisheries and shipping trades would open back up again after a bit of an extended vacation. Still, that was weeks from now, and at the moment the land was moderately snow and ice free. The wind and chill bit into the skin and clothing of most though although Valen himself was more or less unaffected by such weather. Even in ice and snow he wouldn't freeze easily as his blood ran hot and his body temperature was of a higher average than most. Keeping him warm at almost all times.

    He stood, garbed in his shinobi gear as he awaited his mission partner. He wasn't sure who was going with him to handle this situation but he knew he wouldn't be going alone. He wore a black compression shirt and shinobi pants. Black boots, black gloves, and a black and crimson lined cloak with a hood and pockets throughout the inner lining. Perfect for holding any number of items and equipment. He had filled out considerably in the months and grown quite a bit in them too. Now standing at a respectable 5'11 he was no longer the short little midget many saw him as before. His hair, where once was quite vertical, had grown out enough that gravity had finally had it's say and pulled it inexorably down his back. It hung down to his upper back and he would probably let it grow out a bit more. A neatly trimmed goatee was on his features and at his waist of course was his sword. The sheath for it was black with red circles marking down it. The circles were separated into third and the hilt protruding from the sheath had an octofoil tsuba in a flower design and the hilt itself was wrapped in black silk with the end cap gold. The end cap on the sheath itself was gold as well and the entire weapon rested comfortably upon his waist as if it belonged there. It was a magnificent sword and all in all the changes in the man were magnificent in themselves. Although he wouldn't ever see them that way. His personal power had grown exponentially as well and he had even been promoted to the rank of Special Jounin and given a squad. They of course weren't here, as the mission was a bit too high for them at the moment. Idly he waited, senses open for his mission partner to arrive, as patient as the snow itself.

    Sayuri had been going through missions assignments, reviewing upcoming missions and going over completed ones. It was a relatively mind numbing task, but with the absence of Arisu and negligence of Kitsuki, if she didn’t do it - no one would. Sayuri was not normally the responsible type, but after many long talks with Jareth and one fairly influential discussion with Shimiko she had come to the conclusion that a long reign was far preferable to a short one. And part of that long reign was appearing to be responsible.

    While going through mountains of paper she came across one particular mission and recognized the name on it: Valen Minamoto. It seemed that he had been assigned to stop an insurrection in a nearby fishing village and had not yet been assigned a partner. So of course, she assigned herself. It had been a while since she’d been on a mission and this one was personal for her. Because she was a bit of a troublemaker, she made sure that Valen wouldn’t be informed of who his partner was so that she could surprise him.

    Walking outside the gates that cold afternoon, Sayuri’s bare feet were whisper quiet on the frozen earth, using her chakra she would allow the snow to fall around her. Since it was a mission she had created shinobi gear out of hyoton, including a mask that covered the lower half of her face, giving her a ghostly look in gear that matched Valen’s - the key difference being the colour which was crystalline white. Looking around she didn’t see him however, seeing only a tall dark haired shinobi that could have been Valen but he was much taller than she remembered and without seeing his face she couldn’t be certain.

    She approached the man from the rear, attempting to place an icy hand on his shoulder to turn him as she announced her presence. “You were not who I was expecti-” Should she be successful in touching the man’s shoulder her words would be cut short as she felt the familiar heat radiated off his body and she would stand there staring with a look of confusion on her partially covered face.

    As he stood, patiently waiting outside of the gates of the village from his mission partner to arrive he would feel the touch of a hand upon his shoulder. He recognized that cold, the cold of a Yuki, and given the snow that had begun to fall his assumption would be all but confirmed. He turned toward his mission partner and blinked in surprise as she spoke. He knew that voice, and knew it well. Her words gave him pause, had she not recognized him? Her look of confusion gave evidence that something was going through her mind that confused her and without pause he would reach up and detach the mask from his face. Unhooking it from its setting and removing the piece. He would set it within one of the pockets of the cloak, easily obtainable should he require it. However his face would now be revealed to the ice blue eyes he saw now. The ones he had seen before, memories flashed through his mind of her gaze, both in and out of ecstasy. How she would gaze at him, her loyal servant, and he found himself upon one knee without realizing. This was one of the princesses, but more importantly, this was his Master, his Queen. His red eyes never left hers though. They stared at her, filled with the same hunger he always felt when he saw her.

    "My Queen, I was not expecting you either." He would say, the hunger laced within it barely restrained. Out here, publicly, he was her knight, and he always acted the part in full. "We are to take the mission together then?" He would ask, his voice curious, if a bit excited. The last time he had gotten to show his Queen his capabilities had been on that island with Blitz and Sero. That time seemed so long ago now, and he relished the opportunity to show her how far he had come. There was something else he could not wait to try either. For now that he had a weapon of much higher quality, and his own fire capability had progressed so significantly, he was confident he could cause her the sweet, sweet pain she loved without any assistance from something as mundane as an accelerant. Of course, he also knew full well that he had grown since the last time they had really seen each other. Right about the time he had left for the Emporium he had started what he had learned was referred to as a 'growth spurt'. A late one at that, but it was probably kicked off by his much more adequate diet and exercise. Now he stood at a much more normal height of 5'11 and he had stopped growing so that was probably where he would stay.

    Should she allow him, he would rise to his full height, his red eyes still not leaving hers of blue. "It would seem we have a zealot problem my Queen. Shall we be off to deal with them? I can carry you if you wish." He would ask, his head tilting to the side in curiosity. He had grown much stronger physically too and while carrying her wasn't exactly difficult before. She weighed what, 100 lbs soaking wet? Now it would seem effortless indeed.

    Sayuri watched as the masked man revealed his face to her. She had felt that it was Valen, she would recognize that heat against her skin anywhere, and his voice sounded the same. . . but he looked different. She continued watching curiously as he knelt before her and asked if they would be doing the mission together. Without replying she would step forward and reach out an icy hand to trace along his face, closing her eyes as she did so. Her body remembered the shape of him better than her eyes could and if he allowed it, before long she felt the familiar line of his jaw beneath her fingertips. She knew she was in public, but she had to be sure so she would continue up from his jaw and then across his lips, lingering there for a moment and tracing small gentle circles on the delicate flesh.

    Her eyes would open suddenly, ice blue meeting red, and a seductive grin would spread across her face. “It is you. My Ember Knight, how I’ve missed you so. You’ve. . . changed. . .” Her mind swam with possibilities; he was taller but that had never bothered her, although their physical size difference may allow for new and exciting exploits. She could also see that he was stronger, his limbs were larger and more muscular and she would bite her lip as she imagined being held down by those arms. She would allow him to rise before she finally answered his question, though her hand lingered against him as she did, lowering from his lips to his chest. “I will be your mission partner, yes. I have a personal interest in this zealot problem.” When he offered to carry her she would move closer to him, just barely pressing her form against his and raising her head to meet his gaze. “I do wish, my Knight. I leave my well being in your capable hands.” She would then wait until he picked her up, her eyes full of desire that matched the pale pink on her cheeks.

    She hadn’t been waiting more than a few seconds for Valen to lift her into his arms when he suddenly crumpled to the ground. There was no exciting precipitating event, just a dull thud as his comatose body hit the snowy earth. Where just moments before he had been fiery and full of life, now he was an uninteresting lump on the ground. With a sigh Sayuri crouched down to poke at him, to no avail. No amount of prodding would rouse her fallen knight. Waving her hand she would summon Marshmallow, her Ice Forged Behemoth and order him to lift the man and carry them both back to her castle. A feat easily performed by the twenty meter tall ice creation.

    Once there, Sayuri would have Marshmallow carefully place Valen down in the snow. She would then remove all his goods from his person, not wanting to destroy the masterfully created items he bore. After which she would direct Hyoton into her palm, preceded by the Dog and Boar hand seals, encasing her Ember Knight in a solid block of ice. She had done this once before, but this time she wanted to ensure that her victim was well secured.

    Sayuri wasn’t entirely sure what Valen needed so many explosives for. He was a fire user, incendiaries seemed an unnecessary thing for him to have. She shook her head softly as she continued channelling Hyoton to cover his body, her intention was to create a beautiful art piece for the man to rest inside. With expert precision she curled the ice and coloured it, making swirling fiery shapes along the outside of the ice coffin, all coloured in brilliant translucent scarlet, orange and gold.  

    Sayuri had dismissed Marshmallow, her Ice Forged Behemoth and where he once had been towering, there was now a pile of ice and snow.

    The process was slow, as all good things were, and Sayuri kept layering ice onto the comatose form of Valen. It would have been reasonable to expect some sort of backlash for doing this, but she had done this very thing once before and not one word had been said to her about it. So, as with everything else in her life, she was left to believe that there were no repercussions for any of her actions.

    The fiery design along the outside of the block of ice was magnificent, and when any light hit the colours the light would play like real flames against the snow around it. The ice sculpture was thick and impenetrable to anyone without specific skills or strength. All told it formed a rectangular block that suspended the man in the center of 5 meter thick ice.

    Finally Sayuri’s art piece was completed. She took a moment to marvel at it, and then formed the seal of the Dog, placing her palm against the top of the ice coffin. Forming the seal to create permanence in the ice sculpture she sealed Valen away, protecting him from the elements and from anyone who may wish him harm.

    Once the block of ice with Valen inside was sealed, Sayuri would create Frederick, her Ice Forged Sentinel, out of the pile of ice and snow that was the remains of Marshmallow. Frederick would wait expectantly for orders, and once given would immediately move the ice sculpture inside the castle where directed by Sayuri. “Put him in the shrine room, with Azrael.” Sayuri had preserved Azrael in a similar fashion, ensuring that her most precious possessions were never harmed. As yet, not a single soul had laid eyes on the shrine room, by design of course.

    Once the Valen ice coffin was placed next to his twin in a hidden room in the ice castle, Sayuri would gather his things and bundle them up, taking a moment to make a note for Sero. Delivering the note by bird was a simple matter, and would continue to ensure hers and Sero’s power within the Land of Water.

    The Note:

    As promised she would leave Valen’s things with Frederick, using yet more chakra to ensure that Frederick would last until Sero arrived. Once satisfied that her loose ends were tied up, and various messes attended to, Sayuri would head for Kirigakure.

    The bird would screech as Sero stood within the mouth of the cave...the old base they had risen to power in. How they had been no one then and risen so far. He may still be a genin himself but Sayuri and he were influencing the village now. She running it with two others and he holding political power over two clans and a military division. His cold eyes took in the dark cave before shifting to the bird. It was uneasy near him but Sayuri wouldn't make a poor choice with an easily frightened bird. It was trained. So it waited until the message was removed from its talons before taking off and flying away as fast as it could. How odd he would think to himself as he took the letter from Sayuri. He would unfurl it and read the contents without blinking and his never changing expression. So another was taken by the plague and preserved by his queen. This was an issue but one he could do little for. Instead it appeared there was equipment that would see better use in his hands for the time being.

    So Sero would release the letter from his hand. Letting it burn in a burst of green flame before turning and heading for the mountain. He had no concern to change or bring supplies for he didn't fear the cold or distance. All of it irrelevant to him as if it were simply crossing the street. Instead he would shift at a casual pace along the path to the castle. The snow melting in front and around him as he went. Leaving a path straight to him....straight to death. He would ignore this danger though. The snow would cover it soon enough. Instead he would only give pause once he was before the castle. Standing before Fredrick...the guardian of this place along with the bone golem he had left here somewhere. The thing would look down to him and he up to it in silence. A moment where neither knew fear. Only understanding the violence the other was capable of. Then Fredrick would lead him to the objects in question. Sero would collect it all...the sword..the cloak and the gloves...the sword imbuing to his katon energy as he felt it connect. His hand felt odd on the hilt but he would not fight it. Instead he would collect the explosive tags as well. Eventually those would see good use.

    The walk back down the mountain held no emotions or events for him of note. Frederick had ignored him shortly after he left the castle which was expected. That sword still seemed to almost writhe in his hand as his katon energy swelled and relaxed over and over again. He had never had much use for equipment but this would do nicely. The tags he would find a use for...and the cloak and gloves...his body would not always be invulnerable after all. Still he would store all but the sword back at the base at the Hozuki compound. He would collect them when needed in a more official capacity.
