-[X] Yes: Lets go for it!

D100 + 40 => 61
- [x] Karin: Spend time with your cousin. Yamato also will teach her some stuff about Konoha and what are her options. Rolled:
D100 => 74
You looked towards Naruto and listened to him and Karin talk. There were trying to be safe, and alert, but after the massive chaotic situation that you had all fled from, it was nice to see Naruto relaxed and feeling… better. Sure he seemed a little jittery and looking around for seals that could potentially explode…
But what's a little bit of paranoia between friends and family?
"So wait, you like Ramen?" Karin asked as the bounding Naruto slurped on a cup from his stock.
"Yeah. Want some?" He asked, offering part of the cup. "Still warm."
"I don't think so. Don't you know that crap is bad for you, the salt alone will make you fat and bloated." She said with a huff.
"Do you know the life we live? I can literally eat ten of these and still burn through more calories than most civilians I know. I know people who are fat and lazy and don't burn through calories like that, and they need to be fat to do their jobs. Just as I need to remain fit to do mine. And guess what, I train so much that the cup of Ramen that I eat, will not matter."
Karin tried her best to retort. But instead, she just sighed. "But why ramen?"
Naruto smiled. "Let me tell you a story about a ramen chef who fed me after I was booted out from the other kids, and a restaurant that I tried to eat at."
"Are you just trying to ignore the chakra control exercises I'm trying to teach you?" Karin asked.
"Yes."
Reward: Naruto and Karin Bond… and Naruto's mental stability will improve after this mission.
Though his chakra control is still terrible.

- [x] Sasuke: Lets teach him how to see if ninja tried to cover his tracks. Combine lesson with Yakumo Rolled:
D100 + 40 => 101
- [x] Yakumo: Teach her how ninja covers their tracks using, genjutsu, ninjutsu and mundane methods. Combine lesson with Sasuke. Rolled:
D100 + 40 => 105
You looked back and could not see the two.
That would have been strange, had it not been for the fact that they were falsifying trails, in addition to actually covering your tracks. Sure on a well-traveled, paved road like what you were traveling on, it was not necessary, but sometimes a little bit of a flair was needed.
And with Grass Blowing up… well that was needed greatly to keep any ninja that was off to follow you for revenge.
"I'm telling you, Hanzo can easily reshape the road to have a fork that will come back to main road, and it would delay any pursuit," Sasuke said as he pointed toward the map he was using. "Like this." He traced with his finger.
"Hanzo isn't really able to do something like that right now, considering that he is acting like a big baby because he didn't get ice cream and chocolate." Yakumo stated.
"I deserve so much after this bullshit mission, and you know it! Asking me to try and do more is just being abusive!" Hanzo shot back.
"We almost died in Grass. I am not dying because we weren't careful Hanzo." Yakumo shot back.
A moment passed before Hanzo blabberd. "
Alright, just let me look at the damn map."
Well, those three were getting along famously.
Maybe they would cause entire squads to get lost?
Who knows?
It wasn't your problem anymore.
Reward: All enemy chase rolls will be negated, they are all lost, due to Yakumo and Sasuke's liberal changing of the terrain.
------------------------------------------------
- [x] Yamato: Teach and suprevise your team, but if have summon send message for Hokage's ears only that "Adult Uzumaki was in Grass for 20 years and just snaped. Also Naruto is bonding with his cousin who will be coming with us." Rolled:
D100 => 45
The Clone was cross as you prepared to send the message, writing it down quickly. "Are you sure you want to do this like this?" He asked.
"You are a clone, don't go asking those sorts of questions, I just need a job done."
The clone was not amused. "Yes, because clearly, this entire mission is a job that needs to be done. We blew up a goddamn country while kidnapping a girl, this mission should be a cluster fuck and a half. What are we even doing here anymore?"
"We did not blow up a country, the pissed-off Uzumaki matron did covering our escape." You replied. "As for what we are doing? We are making sure that the kids are safe, and they still are."
"And what happens if they aren't safe? What happens if we continue to get unlucky?" He asked.
"What are you, my therapist?" You asked.
"You know what I mean." the clone said. "If they die, you will live with that."
"If they die… it will be because I am dead." You stated firmly. "Now deliver the damn message, before I make another clone and you will die."
"Fuck you." the clone said, taking the scroll and running towards home.
Were your clones always this existential? Or did it just happen because of getting a Genin Team?
Oh well, back to babysitting the kids.
You wonder how Hiruzen would react to this message once he gets it?
Maybe he'll try to kill you for the chaos you wrought.
---------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile with Hiruzen:
He read the message:
"Adult Uzumaki was in Grass for 20 years and just snapped. Also, Naruto is bonding with his cousin who will be coming with us."
He then looked at Danzo. "You have a lot of explaining to do Danzo… like who this woman is, and why we didn't rescue her decades ago."
---------------------------------------------
Or he'll give you a pay raise. This is an S Rank mission and you want that sweet sweet retirement money.
You deserve it after this.
--------------------------
The Random Event Roll:
D100 => 32
Crossing Stone… was a breeze. You just walked in again.
But then again, you passed over two hundred ninjas crossing the border into Grass to assist their allies there…
So they might have had other things going on.
But Sasuke and Yakumo covered your tracks well enough to where they didn't even detect you. They just thought you were refugees running like hell as far away from the insanity as possible.
Which in a way, you were.
----------------------------
You finally, arrived in the Land of Iron… Two days after you were supposed to…
But hey, you were kinda busy.
"Finally, I can sleep." Yakumo said as she collapsed onto the floor, and dozed off.
You should not have been running them so hard, but hey, that was the job sometimes.
--------------------------------------------
You are in Iron… What do you do?:
[]Charter a Ship and Go Home: Your job is done, and now, you will walk off into the sunset, and just… relax. Let Hiruzen deal with is bullshit.
[]Meet with the Delegations: So, it seems that there was a delegation here already dealing with negotiations… Jiraiya? Is that you? What are you doing here!?
[]Fuck Around and Find Out: so this Samurai challenged you to a Duel. Time to show him what for.
AN: Enjoy.
