Zam walked thoughtfully, up to the outer gates of Konohagakure's entrance and looked up at the guards.
"My name is Kyuuketsuki Zambatuo of Kusagakure no Sato. I have important business with the Hokage. She should have mentioned I was coming?" Zam stated plainly, feeling kind of ackward talking so formally to guards he knew by name. After all, with a new Hokage comes new relationships.
As the gates sled open, Zam walked passed them and heard them shut quickly behind him. "Ah, my 2nd home. Funny, I never realized how busy Konoha has become since I'd last been here. Look at all the shinobi. This should be an interesting visit."

Kyouki put on her last earring before walking out of her home. The only reason she got all dressed up today was because her friend Zambatuo was visiting Konoha and she wanted to see him.
Walking briskly down the streets, she noticed him walking through the gates and she waved at him.
"Heya Zam! How have you been holding up in Kusa?" She asked him politely, yet familiarly. Even daring to add a liitle nickname in there.
((Lol, i think i'm going to keep calling you Zam or Kyuu from now on. Even on your board...haha!))

Noticing Kyouki coming from amongst the crowd, Zam waved and walked towards her briskly.
"Eh...same old, same old. I heard about your promotion and just had to come congratulate you in person. Zam, huh? Haven't had someone call me that in awhile. Back home it's 'My Lord this and My Lord that'. Gets annoying sometimes. So how have you been?" Zam asked, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose and walking alongside Kyouki.
((I don't care, I'm used to be calling Zam. I use Zam for my online gaming name too.))

"Oh, well thanks so much. However, ever since i became Hokage, i just want to be a jounin again. Everything was so much simpler, you know?"
Kyouki walked alongside Zambatuo and continued in a random direction, not really sure where she was headed.
"I've been good. Thanks for asking. So did you get your genin team yet?" She asked, a curious expression on her face. Just wait till he finds out what those little brats can do to your head!

"Yea, I hear that. The Jounin life was so much simpler." Zam said, sighing slightly.
Following Kyouki, Zam knew she didn't have anywhere in particular she was heading and was just walking for the sake of walking.
"Nope, can't exactly be a Sensai in Kusagakure, now can I? That's why I came here. I'm going to be here indefinitely and I've already assigned someone to watch things while I'm away. So I was wondering if you had any teacherless genin here in Konoha that I could look after for you."

((Lol, we only have two genin. How sad is that?))
"Really? Who did you leave behind?" She thought of anyone in Kusa that she might know, but quickly ended with nothing.
Kyouki scratched her head as she thought of the genin in Konoha.
"Well, I can only seem to remember two right now. And they're Shizuino Amaya and Suki AKi. From what I've heard, they are both Sensei-less and exceptionally skilled. You could take them if you're up to it."

((not that sad. At least you already have some Chuunins.))
"One of the other Jounins I used to train with back when I was a genin. I'd trust him with everything."
Taking out a scroll and pen, Zam wrote down the names.
"Shizuino Amaya and Suki Aki? Ok, got it. I'll be happy to teach them whatever I can about being the best shinobi they can be. Exceptionally skilled you say? This might be more fun than I initially thought it would." Zam said with a smirk as he put the scroll back in his pack.

Kyouki noticed the scrolls and sighed, holding in her laughter.
"I see you've become as prepared as always. Never missing a beat, are we Kyuu?" She mocked him, expescially in calling him little boyish nicknames.
"Well, I hope you find everything in Konohagakure to your liking. Your welcome to say in the guest quarters at my new place. I've got tons of unused space, it's almost sad."

"What, this? Yea. You never know when you'll need a scroll." Zam said, smiling at Kyouki's nickname.
"Always do. Sure, I'll stay there, but just till I find a place for sale, somewhere around here. I'll meet with my team after I get settled in."

Kyouki smiled and nodded at Zambatuo.
"Cool, because now i know where to go!" She said as she started heading towards the large mountain on the northern side of the village.
They passed many merchants and civilians and shinobi alike, each one of them waved. Most of the older people even recognized Zambatuo. Once they both reached the gates, Kyouki sighed, relieved.
"Well, welcome to my humble abode!" She pushed the gates open and waved towards the guards who just stared back at her like she was going crazy.
Walking up the steps and opening the front door, she took off her shoes and waited for Zambatuo to follow.
Her house wasn't just a house, it was a mansion. The whol structure had been built halfway into the Hokage monument and took up the whol base of the mountain.
"Well, come on it Zam!" She told him.

Following Kyouki into her home, Zam looked around. "So this is how Hokages live? Puts my place to shame."
Passing a pair of shinobi guards, Zam smiled at the one he recognized, who smiled and nodded back at him.

"Well actually we only get a quarter of it. The back half is an orphanage for children and the other front quarter is for guest. Then below the mountain is the torture chambers and the prisoner cells. We also keep all of our larger equiptment down there."
Kyouki explained as she walked through the hallways in her home and took a sharp left. Only to turn right into another hallway.
"It's basically like Konohagakure's safe house if we are ever under attack. I designed it myself the first year as Hokage." She said proudly, then turned to Zambatuo with a questioning look in her eyes.
"So what have you been doing as Lord down in Kusa. Make any new allies or enemies?"
Somehow, she managed to keep looking in Zambatuo's direction while going through th hallways and around corners without bumping into the wall once.

Following closely, to make sure he didn't get lost, "Well, I just got done negotiating a trade treaty with Kimigakure and a representative from Otogakure tried to assassinate me about 6 months back. Too bad for him that his master gave him the task of trying to assassinate me. Had to kill the poor foul, he was presistant, never gave up to the last bit. But then again, neither do I." Zam said, shrudding his shoulders. "On a much happier note, I got to attend my best friend's wedding about a week before I left. Beautiful woman too. Told him he didn't know how lucky he was." Zam said, giving a sincere smile.

"Awww, so you do have friends other than me!!!" She said in a mockingly sweet mother's voice.
Kyouki smiled before she reached the last door at the end of the hallway they were in.
"Well, here is your room. I hope you find it to your liking. If you need anything, don't hesitate to ake whatever you need. Money, food, more pilows, anything and everything in this part of the house is yours. Now, if you'll excuse me, i probably have two very large stacks of paper waiting to be signed be you know who."
She said before opening the door to his room. Inside you could see that it was a VERY nice room with enough space for 25 full-grown men to sleep inside on the floor.
"If you have any questions, you can always come into my office. You'll be my excuse for taking a break." She told him, winking. She turned on her heel to go, but turned right back around again the last instant.
"Oh, i almost forgot! You said you wanted to meet your genin right? I'll have them look for you. Where do you want them to meet you?"
((In reality, i'll pm them both to reply to this thread.))

"Ha...Ha...Funny. I see your wit hasn't gone with your sanity." Zam said, joking back."[/b]
"I doubt I'll need much, I got plenty of money and therefore food and I don't sleep that often. Insomnia, you know." Zam stated, throwing his pack in the corner and taking of his coat, revealing a tight, sleeveless black shirt that showed off his muscular arms that he was so proud of. "Nah, that's ok. I got a special way of meeting my new team. Just let me have their addresses. Once I'm done settling in, I'm come up to visit you in your office for dinner, how that sound?"
((PM them to let them know I'm their Sensai, I want to RP out the meeting differently. My idea is to leave notes on their doorsteps, telling them that if they want to become stronger, meet [insert place here] at [insert time here]. Not in real time, of course. And wait for them to show up.))
