*Aoshi shakes his hand. The official turns to Yuriko and bows.*

[Kazekage] Oh hush. I am your aunt.
[Misaki] Your aunt is the Kazekage.
[Kazekage] You didn’t tell your team.
*Yuriko nods no.*

[Yuriko] Kazekage-sama the letter.
*She lets go of Yuriko and turns to Aoshi.*

[Kazekage] They are indeed! That is why I would love to see how they fair against you three.
[Iyo] Us three?
[Misaki] Why does it need to be us?
*The Kazekage laughs.*
[Kazekage] Because you three are already here. Now, which one of you wishes to go first.
*All three look at Aoshi. He decides to find a chair and pull out his book.*
