Haven nodded as he handed the flask up to Daisuke, and even as he ended the subject Haven continued to talk on it, "Yeah, I know we can die here...But death is something I think about every time we go on a mission, and every time I get into a fight. No matter if it's an obvious win, or weak opponent, I know something could happen and if I'm not careful then....Well, death. As long as it's quick...Which is why I think no different about this mission, and will think no different about any mission. No matter the rank, death is always a possibility. But with this one, we have to play it smart. Smarter than usual," he stretched his arms once more before speaking again, "The Republic being bad? Yeah, I've thought about it. Also thought about this being a trap, but...I don't know. I mean, remember those bodies Konoha sent back? That's the only thing we have to convince us Konoha is bad, or up to something. But what people don't realize is that we have no idea why they were sent except for the excuses the Republic gives us. We really have no idea why they were sent, or what they did even. Which is the only reason I'm fine with going along with the mission, we're only sent here to spy, and I want to know what's going on exactly even if that means going up to the Hokage directly. But I'm sure that'll blow our cover and not end well for me, with the Hokage or Republic," Haven said. And just at that moment a thought came into his mind, a stupid one at that, which was find a way to knock out a Jounin or Chuunin and torture them in a secret area. Make them tell, or give them the information they knew. Felt a bit too....Sadistic for him. But he knew a time would come where he'd have to, but not now. He didn't bring that up, instead he just spoke about something different, "But why we're here we should come up with some type of plan, maybe? Obviously they'll know something is going on with the Republic if random Genin just start showing up...So before we get inside Konoha, maybe find a couple Genin or Chuunin? Steal their outfits and pose as Leaf Shinobi. Oh, and you probably shouldn't use your sand techniques unless needed, that'll blow the cover. Man, I'dunno, just wished a bit more detail could have been provided for us." Haven ran a hand through his hair then cracked his neck again, this conspiracy talk was beginning to make him think more. What exactly were they going to do? What would happen if they were caught? What were the Republic and Konoha's gain? Why was he so hungry? Even the thought of his father came up. Did his father know something about the Republic? Was that why he left Sunagakure? His fist clenched just then, maybe that was it. Maybe his father had left for a reason instead of just randomly leaving and branded as a traitor? He sighed and closed his eyes, unclenching his fist. It didn't really matter at the moment, what did matter was how they were going to get into Konoha. He doubted that they could just stroll right in, he wondered how the other village Genin were fairing. Probably way better than the Sand three, he opened his eyes and kept looking forward. Maybe Tamiko would have an idea, he shrugged and looked up at the sky. Why couldn't things just be simple?
