Late to the Party [Travel]

[Hisou Rokuna]

Thunk. Thunk. Thunk.

Hisou rolled over in his bed and pulled the pillow out from under his head to smother his face with. When he realized that the sound wasn't being drowned out, he groaned loudly and tossed the pillow across the room. There was no chance of getting back to sleep now, so Hisou groggily pulled himself from bed and started getting dressed. He'd just finished pulling his pants on when the sound suddenly grew louder.

Now irate, Hisou got up and moved to the door before pulling it open. He brought his arm up to cover his eyes as the sunlight invaded the room. Hidou staggered back for a moment until his eyes adjusted to the light and he poked his head out, although he kept his eyes narrowed. The sound was from a repairman, replacing the boards on the roof of the house next to his own. He stood there for a short while before realizing what was wrong- The sun was out. He was late.

Hisou dashed back into his room and finished getting dressed, then started strapping his armor on. When he put the final piece on, he got up and hurried out the door while struggling with the straps of the armguard. Surely Kawakami would have waited for him... It took the better half of an hour, but when Hisou finally found the Kawakami's residence, he was told that Shinkiro had already left on the mission. Cursing both Shinkiro and his sleeping in, Hisou set out towards Mizugakure. Of course, in his haste, he forgot to take supplies with him...
