With a few minutes taken from the hour glass of life, the two came upon the large building, it was where the Mizukage resided. "Hiromoasa..." Masumi hadn't seen the young man in quite some time, that face that burned with a great desire to lead. It was that very face that had encouraged her to become stronger, the strength he showed her was the strength she desired. "This way please." Waving his hand for Masumi to follow, he ushered her in and up the steps. Up the winding path they traveled until they came to a large room."Please go in Ms. Masumi!" The man had stopped by the side of the door and gave no further signs of guiding her, so she nodded and pushed opened the door gently, stepping inside. The spacious room was quite dim as the girl surveyed the Elder Council. "The elder council? What could they want with me?" Walking forward slowly she met all of their peering gazes with her own blunt stare. Something must had happened during her absence, but what?

"Welcome, Masumi Hozuki, now Chuunin of Kirigakure. We have much to discuss.... "

[/b][/color] After she replied humbly all was silent as they shuffled through various documents on the half circle desk that sat two individuals-one male and the other female. They were wise, cunning, devious, but that was to expect of the old. Masumi had never before personally met them, but for some reason she had garnered their attention. Clearing her voice Masumi worded her question carefully before speaking. "Pardon my haste, but why have I been summoned before you?" The male on the right was the first to speak as he meticulously scanned the girl. His penetrative gaze was like that of a starved wolf , with eyes upon his prey. It sent a callous shiver through her spine, but Masumi gave no sign of movement or feeling. She was still as a statue. [/justify] [/ul][/ul][/blockquote]

Kirigakure has fallen into an unstable state. The Mizukage-Hiromasa has vanished and theres no sign of a body. Masumi's eyes widened, she knew him personally and knew he'd never abandon Kirigakure. She was confused, but made no evident motion to interrupt the elder as he spoke. "With his sudden disappearance we've been left without a proper leader. None fit the role as you can see, but we have talked among ourselves and wanted you to become the next Mizukage." They wanted Masumi to lead them? She had not the slightest idea of how or where to even begin. She was simply a solider, but to cross the line to general was maybe something she could do. "Me? But why out of all the others?" The room fell silent until the woman elder spoke, her words clear and pronounced. "With our current lack of manpower who else? You were the leader of team Hydra-the Mizukage's personal genin squad. You are the only one to progress to Chuunin out of your entire generation of genin. And it is you who demonstrated the power of Kirigakure in the Chuunin Exams, by being declared the strongest of the genin fo all the Shinobi villages. It is these feats that helped us come to such an conclusion!" Her words were fire, spoken with absolute passion as the elder's grip from the table loosened. So much was happening at one time, Masumi was simply overwhelmed.

"A splendid answer!" Both elders said in complete harmony with one another. They stood up, grabbing up all the papers, their movements suggesting haste. "The Daimyo has already given his consent to our choice. From here on out, you are our kage. Now. We must go spread word of our new leader. In the meantime go over everything in your office. Theres a lot you need to know." Masumi nodded in agreement as she watched them leave. Soon after, she herself walked out, greeted by the man who had walked her to this very room stood firm. "Congratulations Mizukage`sama!" Being called such a revered title was strange, but also something the girl could get use to. Not only was her ego inflated beyond all measure but she held a sense of pride as she walked up the spiraling staircase that lead to her office. It seemed like all she passed had known of her inauguration, praising her with greetings and such. "I wonder if this is how Hiromasa felt?" Entering her office she began reading over all she could, so to get accustomed with everything. The village was in poor shape and it seemed Hydra was extremely lacking. As the previous leader of the team she knew this had to be remedied. She knew what to do.
