Haitani's eyes narrowed upon Izo, a grimace forming over his mouth. Izo was always the one barking orders as if he was the semi-head using the same excuse of trying to keep everyone together and on track. Haitani could only feel his blunt, harshness was a negative in this aspect. The new leader of the team took a few steps forward to stand between the space of Kohaku and the others. There was a simple solution to this whole issue and Haitani was going to give that solution. 

"Izo, calm down. You both are jumping at the mission without a thought of preparation. Kohaku is allowed to prepare herself shortly. Rush into this mission and die because we are unprepared is an outcome I would like to avoid." The Sarutobi gave a sigh and turned to Kohaku, his eyes meeting with hers, "You have 20 minutes. Meet me at the front of the village. Now go."

Haitani stood at the front gates as poised as ever as even the mighty Sarutobi needed to look the part at times. The mission would be underway soon once everyone arrived and Haitani was definitely in the right spirits. Today would be the day that changes everything.
