The freaking Hokage! Kii! This was why Ryou needed Kii. He couldn't babysit Shira on his own. "Wait! Shira! I don't think you really took the time to think this out!" He shouted very kindly as she ran off. Quickly, Ryou sprinted after her. He was good at getting people out of situations; he was good at [i]talking[/i]. But if Shira walked right up to the leader of the village they had been sent to spy on, there was no way they weren't going to be figured out. Someone with enough power to challenge the entire Republic probably could realize they were intruders from Iwagakure in a few, quick seconds. [i]Dammit, dammit, dammit![/i] Ryou thought, finally grabbing Shira's arm desperately as she stopped behind a tree. Ryou would have liked to imagine he'd been able to stop her sooner, but... it was hot here and Shira was fast. Ryou was pretty sure he was going to become all dried out and gross if running was going to become a common activity here. 

The Hokage was in the clearing! Shira and Ryou were going to die and Kii... Kii would probably do something really cool but totally stupid if that happened. Ryou tightened his grip on Shira's arm. Slowly, Ryou would start to back away, inching them out of the forest. They couldn't approach the Hokage. This was like the number one thing someone shouldn't do when spying. Although Ryou hoped Shira's idea was to simply ask to watch and not actually show him her abilities,he doubted they were suppose to approach the rebel leader of the village they were suppose to be spying on. Like Shira was one decision away from Ryou knocking her unconscious and carrying her to the warehouse if she even moved... Kii would have to understand, right?

Ryou looked at her pleadingly, afraid to speak and be noticed. The Hokage could probably do all kinds of cool things like sensing chakra and... And... Shira would be too obvious. People like Kii and Ryou could blend in easier. But Shira was a beacon of dangerous not-Konoha chakra. Kii was going to be disappointed if Ryou allowed Shira to do something like this. [i]"Please,"[/i] Ryou mouthed to her.
