[b]Kyūryū Ikeda[/b]
----------------------
Kyūryū had been been shadowing the tsuchikage since their arrival to the place that would once more hold the exams that would split those who had promise and those who needed - something more to bring out any potential promise, the Chuunin Exams. Once the message of the starting of the Kage summit had been announced, Kyūryū had watched as his Kage and the others who would be in the meeting walked in to the room where the meeting would take place, he himself dropped from where he was watching over him as a loyal member of Iwagakure's ANBU (although this was not his main role within ANBU) and took of his Bear shaped mask and put it away in one of the inside pockets of his jacket before popping his neck and headed off towards the main function room where most of the shinobi seemed to have gathered for the start of a week long party or gathering.

Kyūryū was sitting in one of the unoccupied corners of the room, slowly sipping away at a saucer of sake while watching the others. It was one of the things he did to calm his nerves in new environments - people watching. Be it for potential information (drunk shinobi sometimes had loose lips) or just to see what he was getting himself in for.  

As he watched, he was interested to see some of the other high ranking (from what he could observe from the flack jackets and the fact they were here as opposed to actually taking the exams) drool over the food, taking things to be that the food must actually be something to rave about Kyūryū stood from his corner, finished his sake and started towards some of the tables that were straining under all the different food to see what would take his fancy.
