"I know what I'm doing. I'm playing ambassador because i was ordered to" He says "If you meant I dont know what the Leaf needs an ambassador for then that would be true"
He pulls out a book, this one on advanced taijutsu, and begins to read, waiting for the Raikage to answer his door.

Sasunari raised an eyebrow at Korin.
Surrely she was used to be sent to a lot of places without knowing the reason why. And it wasn't the first time she saw someone in that situation either. But generally that someone wouldn't be so calm as this Korin guy seemed to be. And, for some reason, it annoyed her.

"Dont worry about me. I can handle myself." Korin said "You seem to have been here for a while though" He glances over the top of his book and notices a tiny look of annoyance(sp?) and grined. He found it funny that most people got annoyed at how calm he was.

"Don't worry about it." She said, smilling this time and turning to him, rememberig to herself how she should behave in this situations. God, she almost screwed it up! Since when was she that careless?
As quickly as she could alow herself, she went back to that neutral expression of hers, trying her best to don't show more emotions at all.

"You know, its not necesarily a bad thing to show emotions" Korin said. He turned back to his book.

(OOC: How does Korin know that? xD)
Sasunari looked at him again, this time not withdrawing her eyes.
"And what does that mean, exacly?" She asked, kind of surprised. Was he a mindreader or what?

"Nothing really," Korin says. He continues reading.

"Is he even normal?" Sasunari thought to herself, rolling her eyes and returning to her normal, neutral face.

Nori gave a sideways glance to Kaede, who stood with her head tilted, her golden eyes sharp with curiosity. He smiled to himself and turned back to the scene. Since when has Sasunari been so talkative?
"No need to greet me or anything, Sasunari-chan," he teased good-naturedly. "Kaede and I can wait."
It wasn't often that Nori was so sarcastic, and Kaede thought it funny. If only the Raikage would hurry up and show…

"oh... Sorry!" She said with a faint, embarassed smile, turning her head towards them. She really was starting to be too aerial. "How are you guys? Do you at least know why you're here?"
When she finished saying that, she didn't moved her eyes away from them as she usually did, but there wasn't any clear trace of that last smile on her face.

Korin laughed slightly from where he was sitting on the floor and continued reading his book.

(OOC: Sorry for the lack of description, guys. Just trying to get this done before I start homework...)
Nori flipped his bangs to the side and nodded his head, as was ceremonial. "Doing well, thank you," he replied.
"It's good to see you, Sasu-chan," added Kaede with another small bow.
Nori stared at the wood of the office door for a moment before saying more. "No, we don't know why we're here. Kaede was the one who relayed the message to me."
"It was only a scroll from a runner," noted Kaede, pulling some hair from her face. "It said to get over here right away, and that there was a foreign shinobi visiting. Korin is the foreign, apparently, but other than that, I'm no better off than you three."
Nori opened his mouth to comment, but was soon stopped. A fifth voice came booming from behind the closed door: "All right, you five, you can come in, now."
Nori narrowed his eyes as he reached for the silver doorknob. Five?
Kaede looked behind her at the small orange cat, but said nothing.
"Sorry for the wait," said the Raikage, seated from behind his enormous oak desk. "Paperwork, you know."
Nori bowed low, a symbol of great respect, especially since he, himself was already high up in ninja status. "No, sir, Raikage-sama, it was no trouble at all."
Kaede folded her hands and bowed beside her cousin.
The Raikage was still a moderately young man, at least for the ruler of a country; he was only about forty years old. Strong-shouldered and blonde, he hadn't lost many of his youthful qualities. Kaede knew that he had a soft spot for Nori because of this; they were both similar in their innocent appeal. But from the height of a bow, the Raikage looked nothing at all like a child. He sat with great presence in the great, lush chair, cloaked in white and bearing the symbol of the Land of Lightning. She knew that he had proved his worth many a time in battle, and that he was particularly skilled in the art of trickery.

(OOC:Dont worry about it)
Korin bowed deep to the Raikage, he had once had the honor to see him in battle. "Hello Raikage-sama." He said with utter respect. " I'm sorry to rush you, but would be so kind as to tell me why we five were summoned here" Korin had noticed the cat when they were told to come in.
The Raikage only smiled and said "I will tell you after the fifth one has joined us in human form."
Everyone looked at the cat

"Strange. I haven't sensed it before... But that's certainly not an ordinary cat. Can it be a Henge?" Sasunari thought, still gazing at the feline in front of her. "Hmm... Maybe not. I would have sensed it already if it was..."
