Snippet #1099123

"Alright everyone, climb aboard!" Koji says, making a few hand signs, biting his thumb, then slamming his hands on the ground. "Summonging Technique: Keniku!' With that a tree frog, about the size of a dog, appears before the group, with after recieving a nod from Koji he moves back and begins to grow until he is so large everyone there can fit easily on him. Koji then grabs Naoto and leaps onto Keniku's back, then sits her down gently. Jin does the same with Kelik and Kuromaru, then jumps back down and grabs Kuro as well. When Roku gets on they all hold tight and the giant tree frong who believes he is actually one of the great toad summons of Konoha, begins to leap towards Kumogakure.

"It shouldn't take us long to reach the village from here. Your sensei might have gone around the fray after we arrived. After all, having the Raikage and two jonin was more than enough to handle those guys," Jin says, trying to reasure the kids. "We'll get back to the village and find a place for you two to rest up, then I'll go out and look for her."

"You sure you're up for that Jin?" Koji asks, looking on ahead, "I mean, you seemed down for the count earlier. Maybe you should rest too and let us all head out in the morning, or maybe get someone else to go looking for her."
