Toushiro looked around, studying the little post town where he was supposed to meet with the nekojin representatives. It was one of the wealthier places, and it looked nice too. He searched around for a certain inn there the meeting was supposed to hold place. When he found it, he was pleasantly surprised - it was a rather big, and quite luxurious, restaurant. Looks like they have a good taste in such things, - he thought, entering the building. Inside, a waiter immediately made his way to the shinigami. Greetings, how may I help you today?Good day. We, uh, have a reservation. A table for five.Ah, yes. Right this way, please. The waiter started going deeper into the restaurant, maneuvering between the tables, until he came to a stop by a curtain. This is your cabin. I shall be back with your menus shortly. Upon entering the cabin, Toushiro saw a large table, with two luxurious couches to either side of it. Wow, looks really nice, - he said, taking a seat on the right side, - What do you think, R-Kuchiki?

Rukia nods, looking around "I wonder what types of food they have here." She takes a seat next to Toushiro, shifting her zanpakuto to lay better against the seat. "Do you know anything about these Nekojin? What's meaning of allying with them?" Questions again, so inquisitive.
Three nekojin entered the restruant, once from each subclan. One wearing white and green speaks up when they are approached by an waiter. He nods and escorts them to the booth. The three follow him and two smile upon seeing the shinigami, the first on and one that appears to be a med of some kind. "Hello, I'm Sakurazaki Gicho, spokeswoman of the representatives. These are my associates, Li Asukada and Toyako Shinjiki." she bows, "Pleasure to meet you." _________________ Roleplaying Characters: Caleb Uchiha Umoki Aleison Nova Chouso Churitsu Kaichio Dharma RPG Stats: Shinobi Rank: Chuunin ~ Chuunin ~ Sannin ~ Chuunin Village: Konohagakure ~ Konohagakure ~ Otogakure ~ Iwagakure Training Points: 30 Personal Stats: Forum Credit: 110
I'm not sure. Of the reasons, well... I heard they are associated with spirits, much like ourselves. The Council is hoping that we could share some knowledge with them, also... a big city that bears no allegiance with the shinobi villages could also prove the most valuable ally if we are to go to war with the ninja. While that possibility is grim, we cannot completely cross it out, - he says, and then the representatives arrive. Alright, I better not screw this up... but I wonder how I am supposed to reach an alliance agreement with anybody when I don't even know what they or, even worse, we want.
He stands up and bows. Well met. My name is Hitsugaya Toushiro, and this is Kuchiki Rukia.And they're all much older... I wonder if that's going to be a problem. It might be... He sits back down. As you must be aware, we are the shinigami representatives. Our meeting here was arranged in hopes that our two nations will form an alliance.So far so good... _________________

Rukia decides to stay quiet, letting Toushiro handle it for now. It was more his thing anyways. "Pleased to meet you guys," she decides to say, so she won't seem uptight. Toyako, the one wearing a brown cloak removes her hood taking a seat. The other two follow suit. "Indeed, our nation can use an alliance. More and more of our youth are adventuring out into the world, making our presence known. And unlike shinigami, we stick out like sore thumbs. We tend on making peace with all shinobi nations, but a true alliance is needed for security reasons. If any two of them decide to attack at the same time, they'd surely decimate us." explians Sakurazaki, picking up a menu. As Sakurazaki and Li decided what to order, Toyako eyes the two shinigami. "Are all of your upper class so young?" _________________ Roleplaying Characters: Caleb Uchiha Umoki Aleison Nova Chouso Churitsu Kaichio Dharma RPG Stats: Shinobi Rank: Chuunin ~ Chuunin ~ Sannin ~ Chuunin Village: Konohagakure ~ Konohagakure ~ Otogakure ~ Iwagakure Training Points: 30 Personal Stats: Forum Credit: 110
Toushiro took a sip of his tea, which the waiter brought just a minute ago. It was rather good, but not quite what he was used to. If there is one thing he missed Matsumoto for, it was the tea. He never asked what she made it of, but it was just magical. This isn't what I should be thinking about right now...I can understand your concern. It was proven many times in the past that shinobi villages hunger for riches, both material and mental. And a highly cultured nation like yours is no doubt like a treasury to them. Our Council shares the same concern for our secrets. But military threat is not the only reason we are seeking an alliance with your people. Our two people are much alike. We are both close to the spirits of this world, and possess many valuable secrets. We were hoping that apart from a military alliance, we could establish a trade between our two people, both in material things and knowledge. I am sure there is much that we could teach each other, and both benefit from it.Whew, I hope this was good.And to answer your question, no. The ranks shinigami gain are based on their skill and knowledge. He glanced at Rukia, wondering if she was feeling uncomfortable. Maybe I shouldn't have brought her along... then again, she probably wouldn't want to miss it. _________________

Sakurazaki pushes Toyako back slowly, and it's evident she's doing so in a sort of playful way. "In that case, shinigami most be rather intelligent." The three order their meals. Rukia did a few minutes ago with Toushiro and her tea and pastries arrive as the nekojin are ready to order. Li looks at Toushiro, talking this time to speak "Indeed knowledge is the most valuable resource. I think this alliance is very exceptable, of course it's up to the elders." He looks at the two other, who seemingly can't decide on there orders. Is it me Shirayuki, or are they a bit childish?A little, but I think only healthly so. Being serious all the time ages you faster. Look, Toushiro is getting gray hairs as we speak! They finish ordering and Sakurazaki brings her attention back to Toushiro. "Maybe our leaders should talk directly. I see no reason not to join together as friends and allies. What do you think Toyako?" "Maybe a test of some sort.""Excuse Toyako, she believe skill is the only way to show worth. Although it doesn't seem to be that bad of an idea...." Sakurazaki continues. _________________ Roleplaying Characters: Caleb Uchiha Umoki Aleison Nova Chouso Churitsu Kaichio Dharma RPG Stats: Shinobi Rank: Chuunin ~ Chuunin ~ Sannin ~ Chuunin Village: Konohagakure ~ Konohagakure ~ Otogakure ~ Iwagakure Training Points: 30 Personal Stats: Forum Credit: 110
The tenth division captain was rather pleased with how the meeting was going so far. If the representatives all agreed that an alliance would be beneficial, then it was almost as good as already signed. Don't let your guard down just yet...I can't be believe you are telling me that.A test is alright with me, though it seems that we would have to account for the whole of Soul Society. What kind of test were you thinking? At this point, he should be submissive with anything they propose, as long as it was reasonable. He already got their agreement, now it was time to show that shinigami were willing to cooperate. I wonder what Rukia is thinking... _________________

"A fight, why of course!" Toyako says, grinning."Foolishness, a fight won't prove any thing." Li says, talking out a scroll. "Rather let's show them we trust them." He slides it across the table looking at Sakurazaki. "I suppose, " she hands Toushiro another scroll. "This scroll is the alliance agreement and the one she gave you is the location of our village.""If they think this is right, I agree whole heartedly. However, we need to make a signing event." she places her hand on her chin, "But where to have it?" Rukia smiles, "This is so exciting, this is the first time we've really associated with others on such a grand scale. I'm honored to even be apart of this negioation." _________________ Roleplaying Characters: Caleb Uchiha Umoki Aleison Nova Chouso Churitsu Kaichio Dharma RPG Stats: Shinobi Rank: Chuunin ~ Chuunin ~ Sannin ~ Chuunin Village: Konohagakure ~ Konohagakure ~ Otogakure ~ Iwagakure Training Points: 30 Personal Stats: Forum Credit: 110
Toushiro cursed in his mind. This is a tough situation... I should present them with something equally valuable... but, the question is, is this map not a fake? It could be, since they are not very eager to disclose the location of their city. Then, what do I do? Give them a fake of my own? Or give them the real thing, hoping they are not trying to trick us? And if I give them the fake and this turns out to be the real thing, then it will compromise our alliance beyond repair... damn it. But it is interesting that they have an alliance document all ready... After thinking for several seconds, he reaches into his bag and takes out a map that showed the location of Soul Society. Guess I'll have to take the risk... if this is a trick... I'll have to hunt them down and retrieve the map.This scroll shows how to get to Soul Society. It is well-hidden, and cannot be reached by accident. And the signing of the agreement... I was authorized by the Council to do it. And since we are trying to keep this somewhat a secret from possible... ill-wishers, we could sign it here and now. _________________

Sakurazaki looks a bit irrated, "This is a big event that should be celebrated," she takes out a pen, one that looks somewhat different and unique. "But we have full authorazation to sign in place of the leaders. And in light of the situation, this does seem best." The food arrives, and the table is barely big enough for them to sign the document on with plates on it. Toyako grabs a bunch of the plates, balancing on on her tail as well. "Hurry up, there hot." Sakurazaki nods, flinching a bit when she presses down on the pen. She signs is and passes it the Li, who also signs it. Toyako hands Sakurazaki her food and signs as well. "Your turn," she slides it to the two death gods. Rukia takes the pen, "Ouch, what the?" Toyako smiles, "It takes the blood of it's signers," she looks at Sakurazaki, "Why did you forget the tell them? Anyways, blood in the contract makes it binding. Well moreso than a normal contract." _________________ Roleplaying Characters: Caleb Uchiha Umoki Aleison Nova Chouso Churitsu Kaichio Dharma RPG Stats: Shinobi Rank: Chuunin ~ Chuunin ~ Sannin ~ Chuunin Village: Konohagakure ~ Konohagakure ~ Otogakure ~ Iwagakure Training Points: 30 Personal Stats: Forum Credit: 110
