Sora looked at her gravely. "If he betrays us...I will hunt him down and kill him myself." He said this while looking at Taakuin with ferocity in his eyes. Nobody would betray Konoha. Not while Sora was Hokage. He wouldn't let it happen.

Taakuin's pride, as small as it was, wouldn't allow that comment to be made without some sort of response back, "Hokage-Sama, no disrespect intended, but I do not believe that such a young shinobi as yourself could best me." He rose to full height, keeping his head up, "But you have my word, Konoha is my one and true love, and I will never betray her again." He pulled out his headband, which had the scratch through it and held it out, "Would I be allowed to wear one again? To show my alliance?" Naruto had forbidden him from wearing one again.
Maru shrugged his shoulders, thinking of how uncomfortable the chuunin vest was, and would need to find a suitable replacement for the light armor that the ANBU uniform had, something that fit his fighting style.

Sora snorted at Taakuin's comment. [/i]'How little he knows...'[/i] He looked at the headband and thought deeply. Should he be allowed to wear it? "No. I forbid it. You severed your ties with the village, and they remain severed until your mission is complete. Finish what you set out to do, and Konoha will welcome you back with open arms." He said.

Anko let out a small "tch..." and looked away. Even she doubted Sora's ability to take down Taakuin. She just shrugged it off and looked over at Maru Maru. "Are you going or staying?" She asked.

Maru looked at her and said, "Well, I'm going, but before I do, I think I need to visit the message center." He knew there would be multiple contracts for animal summoning there, because that was the message epicenter. He would have to sign a bird contract to make sure that he could send the messages back. Sparrows. Was that to cliqued?
Taakuin's face fell at the comment and said lightly, "I swear that I will do this for Konoha, not for myself, but when I return, you should a head band ready, because I will have earned it."

Anko nodded lightly and murmured to him, "Put a seal on them or something... I'll open them before Hokage-sama gets them, but just incase someone gets them besides us..." She then paused and turned to Taakuin; staring at him for a moment. She shook off her want to stab him right there and turned to Sora, "I should go soon. I have work to do today with the academy."

Sora looked at all three of them earnestly. He did not trust Taakuin, but he did trust Riashi and Maru Maru. They should be enough to take him out if he deviated from the course. He then nodded to Anko. The chuunin exams were starting in three months, and they had to start getting it ready today. He nodded to her and smiled. He dropped the smile and looked at Taakuin. "Now listen. Just because I am letting you do this doesn't mean I trust you yet." He walked over to Riashi and gave him a scroll. "This scroll can be used to seal the greatest of attacks. Only once however." He leaned in and whispered so that nobody could hear except Riashi, "This is a summoning scroll. If things get hairy then open it and use it. What will be summoned to your aid, I am not sure yet. I'll make sure it is strong."
Riashi took the scroll and put it in his pack. He bowed, and his eyes widened when He was told that. He of course, would use it if it was needed.

Anko returned the nod and then gave Maru one last glance before jumping into the trees and disappearing again.

Maru nodded to both of them and said, "Where do we meet Taakuin," Donning his mask once again. It made running through Konoha easier, no one ever stopped him. Taakuin replied, "Main gate, we leave in one hour," And with that he was gone. Maru bowed deeply to Hokage and said, "Thank you sir, I won't let you down." And with that he was also out of sight.

Sora watched the ninja leave and said, "I must get going myself. I have 2 years of paperwork to do." He moaned. 'It wasn't fair.'
With that he disappeared.
