Maiko decided that he should head for the training ground after hearing from a few chunin that the Hokage was there training. he walked towards the area and hoped that he would get some really good information. 

[i]"please remember to be careful Maiko"[/i] Isobu said, and Maiko reassured the three tails that he would be as careful as he could be. he saw a few of the Konoha shinobi give him a few suspicious and curious looks, but Maiko just ignored them and continued on his way to the training ground. before he came to his destination, he saw the Hokage monument and marveled at its splendor. but he couldn't waste anymore time on sightseeing, he had to do his mission and soon he came to training where the Hokage and several people were. one of the spectators looked like a samurai from the land of iron and Maiko wondered what he was doing in Konoha, was he on the mission as well? ether way, Maiko focused his attention on the Hokage, and held his staff firmly in his hand.
