Sand in Rain = A bad beach day [Kozai, Koroshi]

As the two arrived in the rainy place, Kozai used his jutsu to keep the rain off of himself. "Now, you wanted me to sense out... which one, the cabbage ninja or my leader?" Kozai was only keeping the rain off of himself, neglecting to shield Koroshi from the intense downpour of water. It wasn't that he didn't want to provide this courtesy, he had just forgotten.

Koroshi not being bother by the rain due to him living in the wild for about a year and a half, simply keeps walking forward, but when he hears Kozai begin to speak to him, asking him who to sense out, Koroshi shouts toward him "Your leader, Near. I have some questions for him. Koroshi says, still trying to walk at a pace that will not cause Kozai any discomfort.

Kozai smiled, and opened his mind's eye. The village was actually pretty crowded for a small village, so it was hard. "Well, let's see.... huh... too many people, I'll have to get to an elevated central location for maximum coverage. We're on the outskirts, so I'll need to get to the top of the leader place, there." He noted the location of the cabbage-nin's chakra. Hmm, if he was here, then so was Near, probably. But where?

Upon hearing that they are not high enough for Kozai to sense him, Koroshi gets an idea, if he can bring them higher into the air using his Doton, maybe he could sense him without having to go to the leaders home, and or office. "Do not walk forward!" Koroshi says while sliding his right foot a few inches to his right, this motion making the ground under them begin to rise up, forming a 20 foot long platform, that is 5 feet in width. After doing this he controls the earth made platform to stretch and grow 20 meters into the air, this hopefully giving Kozai the elevation he needs.

As the earth rose upward, Kozai turned back to the chakra sensing mode. Well, his view was much better now, but the earth was not as tall as the skyscrapers, and he couldn't sense the people that were farther up. Also, they weren't in a central location, so he couldn't sense the people on the far side of the area. He looked at the cabbage-nin's chakra, and noted how it was moving. Most probably, they had parked on the other side of the village, which mean they needed to move inwards more.

"He's probably on the other side of the village. We need to head in more." Kozai frowned. So many powerful chakra around. And there was something odd about... this rain. It was like it had CHAKRA IN IT.

With a sigh Koroshi moves his left arm forward, making the earth platform move forward, breaking off from the rest of the earth, then by moving his fingers rhythmic he controls the earth to fly toward the center of the village, heading for the tallest skyscraper, which Koroshi can only assume is where the leader is. "Guess you're not that good at sensing chakra" Koroshi says his voice filled with slight annoyance, due to Kozai not being able to sense Near, but can some how sense the cabbage ninja.

"Heh, well this village is filled with chakras, it takes a while for me to find and center upon one specific one. This rain, too, has chakra, which makes it MUCH harder for me to find anyone." Kozai once again opened his mind's eye and had a quick look around. He spotted 2 powerful chakras other than Koroshi's, and pointed out the first one. "Well, there's one directly under us. It seems to be drinking something."

"Well is it your leader Near?" Koroshi says as he controls the earth to fly down closer to him, getting a little aggravated that this is taking so long.

Kozai frowned. He had acquired his jutsu after his meeting with Near, so he could only go on the fact that he knew Near had a certain powerful chakra. "I can't be sure, as I got this jutsu after I met him. The only reason I'm able to sense the cabbage ninja was because I knew what he would be doing in Suna. Now, where could he be?? We could always bust in through this roof here and take a look, if you like."

Hearing Kozai speak Koroshi lets out a slight sigh, and controls the earth made platform to lower down, "parking" it in front of the building that Kozai sensed the chakra from. After landing Koroshi hops off of the platform, dragging Kozai behind him using his earth made leash "Well lets hope that you can still remember what he looks like" Koroshi says with another sigh as he pushes open the door.
