Yuki understood the call, but he hated it. He wouldn't be getting this treatment if he had have just been able to pull of that stupid rope jutsu.
************************************************* "I've been there before, I know what I'm doing," Yuki retorted. Tsunade remained calm and collective, sipping from her sake mug. "I don't care Yuki. You are still only a genin, and I don't send genins off alone." Yuki brooded, "but every other ninja in the village is already on missions. You even made Iruka speed up the last exam so you could get the new teams in the field. I'm the only one that can go. I'm the only other ninja you have available." "Hmm," Tsunade thought. "Then take a student..."
**************************************************
Take a student... Yuki couldn't believe it. Take a student. Was he supposed to become a chuunin just so that he could be nothing more than a teacher... A student. And of course, the few ninjas that he would have picked, had just become genin and were busy... He couldn't even take Cirrus or Otomeken, they had their own missions.
Yuki cursed to himself, but walked into the academy. Knocking on the door, Shikamaru told him to enter.
For a few seconds, Shikamaru and Yuki spoke very quietly, and then Shikamaru stepped back and surveyed the class. "Blink? How would you feel about a walk?"

Blink looked astonished and crumpled up a piece of paper he was doodling on. Would he get in trouble for something as minor as that? No...no? He quickly put on a clueless smile and stood up. "I ccan do that."

"Good," Shikamaru said. "Yuki, meet Blink. Blink, Yuki." Shikamaru nodded towards Yuki with the side of his head. "He's in charge Blink." Shikamaru went back to teaching instantly.
Yuki sighed and walked out of the class to wait in the hallway for this Blink kid...

"In charge? For what?" He quickly caught up with Yuki.

"For my mission that you're tagging along for," Yuki said, trying but not succeeding to take the coldness out of his voice. "You're going to need gear for three days, maybe four. I can't see you actually needing weapons, but take whatever you normally would if you were going on a mission..." Yuki hoped Shikamaru was giving him an intellegent kid, cause that was exactly the lesson that he had just interupted....

Blink nodded and not quite sure if he should say anything. "Not that I'm complaining, but aren't genins the ones who usually go on these missions. Unless I misunderstood when I got here..."

"Yeah... we are..." Yuki said, trying not to snap... "But it seems as though I'm the only available genin, and Tsunade doesn't send genins on missions alone, no matter how mundane... Look... This is going to go a lot better if I stop being pissy, so change the subject. We walk, you talk... Tell me what you do, what are you good at? Might come in handy for me to know a few things about you in advace I guess, while we're going to your house so you can get what you need." Yuki started walking out of the academy...

"Okay, we'll I can't really remember much since I came here. But I'll tell you what I can." He stuck his hands in his pockets. "And I don't live alone, some new friends took me in. Their genins too. Cirrus and Sweety."

"And... Sweety?" Yuki asked desperately hoping this guy wasn't talking about Akira.... "Anyway, what do you do? I don't need a history, I need to know what you're good at, what jutsu's you can do, and what you can't do..."

"Time manipulation mostly. Although I did recently learn how to walk on surfaces with just chakra." He was proud of that, it took a lot of falling down and patience on Cirrus's part. "What do you do?"

Yuki squinted his eyes... "Time manipulation? Ok... I'll just take that at a literal level and maybe sometime I'll see it... Me... I freeze things, and I disappear. To save time later..." Yuki put his hand on Blink's shoulder, and suddenly the world shifted. Colors faded to an eerie dul and darkness. There was a loud sound of high winds, but none could be felt, and everything around them that was (or used to be) substatial seemed to be made of some sort of ghost-like quality, shifting, shimmering, and blowing in the unfelt wind. "This is crossing the veil," Yuki continued. "You're safe over here, as long as I don't let go of you while you're in the middle of walking through a wall or something. Don't get freaked out if I do this to you occasionally, and don't try to make me let go of you if I do it... You could die...."

Blink quickly nodded and stared around amazed at what he was seeing. "This is convienent, we can both take each other insde our jutsu's if we want." He was still a little shocked from the sudden change. "Yuki, what's the 'veil?' Is it death? Or an alternative world?"

Yuki let go of Blink and he would come back to the proper side of the veil; Yuki nowhere to be seen. A second later, he too returned. "Best explanation, and the shortest; it's the other side of this world, the part man was never meant to walk on, but no, it's not death." Yuki continued walking, now knowing the direction, towards Cirrus house. He leaned up against the wall outside just in case Akira was there... "Get your things, I'll be here...."

Blink looked at Yuki oddly for a minute, "You must know them?" He said as he walked in and prepared his things, leaving the door open so he could still talk.

"You could say that," Yuki said loud enough to be heard inside, not sensing the presence of either. "Ok... So three things you need to know about this mission; what I say, goes, we're going to the Thunder country, and the Hidden Cloud really wants this mission for themselves, and if you see anyone other than me whereing a Hidden Sand forehead protector, you have to tell me immediately. Got it?"
