169. Infiltration
169. Infiltration
By the time the trio reached Suna the sun had set. It had been too easy considering Suna is one of the five great shinobi villages. Then again, only a madman would send their shinobi patrolling in this desert. That and the fact said desert works perfectly as a deterrent.
“So, we have two infiltration options, the easy way, and the fun way.” While traveling Tomoka had taken her time to think about their infiltration into the village. Many ideas had come and gone and she had settled on two.
“Let me guess, the fun way involves knocking on their front door and making a mess of things.” Hinata wasn’t amused by Tomoka’s innocent shrug.
“Let's hear the easy way before we make a decision.” Nozomi for her part felt amused. She couldn’t help but love Hinata’s expressiveness when it came to Tomoka’s antics. She found the girl’s exasperated expression adorable.
“Well, I could just summon one of my spiders and have it reverse summon us inside.” Hearing Tomoka’s words the two looked towards each other then towards Tomoka repeatedly.
“You can do that? Summons and do that?” They hadn’t thought about it but it made sense.
“Yeah, I do wonder why no one else does it? It's a perfect infiltration method.” And wasn’t that the truth. Tomoka couldn’t fathom how people hadn’t figured that one out.
“Wait, then couldn’t you have just sent your summon instead of having us travel the whole way?” Hinata’s question made a lot of sense.
“I hu, forgot?” In reality Tomoka had just thought about this method a few hours ago so there was no way she would have been able to do that.
“Yeah sure, bet you hadn’t thought about it until recently” Nozomi knew her girl too well. Seeing said girl blush with embarrassment meant she had hit the nail on the head.
“Well, at least we will be able to skip the trip back.” Hinata said with a defeated smile. She loves Tomoka to death but sometimes she just wants to punch her in the face.
Tomoka decided to stay quiet. She knew when to do so, a skill learned through experience. Since she didn’t wish to acquire her girl’s wrath she quickly wove hand signs summoning a hand sized spider.
“Oh! I have been summoned!” A tarantula looking spider said with its two front legs raised high.
“Hello Kumimaro, I need you to reverse-summon us somewhere safe inside there.” With her instructions clear, Kumimaro ran at full speed towards Suna’s sandstone walls.
“Roger!” Screamed the spider as she left.
“Huh, she looks like a lively fellow.” Nozomi said while looking at the small sandcloud the spider was leaving behind.
“You have no idea, if I had to compare her with someone then that someone would be Naruto. She is also a prankster like him.”
“Oh really, what kind of pranks?” Hinata said with curiosity. She wasn’t one to perform pranks though she loves hearing about them and even more seeing them.
“Well once she…” Like that the group spent their time chatting while waiting for the energetic spooder. Half an hour later Tomoka felt a sort of tugging that informed her she was being reverse-summoned.
“Looks like our ride is here. Hold tight.” saying that Tomoka held her girls’ hands and let herself be summoned.
With a poof of some the girls disappeared from their original position only to reappear with a similar poof of smoke elsewhere. Instead of sand, sand and more sand around them, there were buildings made of sand… stone.
“Infiltration success, thanks Kumimaro, I am guessing you want the usual.” Tomoka said while pulling a slip of paper from her kunai pouch.
“Sure do!” Said the spider before snatching the paper, a moment later she disappeared in a poof of smoke.
“Uh, what’s the usual?” Nozomi couldn’t help but ask.
“Sweets, more specifically caramel covered donuts with chocolate filling.” Tomoka responded feeling a chill crawling up her back. She knew that chill very well by now.
“To~mo~ka, when were you planning on giving us some?” Yeah, she should have seen this one coming from a mile away. Hinata has a sweet tooth to defeat all sweet tooths.
“Hehe, I’m in danger”
