As the two made their way out of the store and proceeded to head to the village, Matsu looked over at Touya, it seemed he had finally come up with some kind of plan.
"Go on ahead, I'll be right behind you. Ignore all bandits and head for the boss." He stated before turning heel and retreating into the nearby forest. Touya stumbled a bit due to the random behavior of his partner, it was indeed unexpected of the tactician.
"Um...what?" The young genin paused there for a moment till it was apparent that Matsu was out of sight; perhaps this was some kind of test on Matsu's part to see what Touya was actually capable of. Despite it finally being night time, there were still members of the Kyoufu patrolling around the village, it was going to be impossible to just waltz into their boss' compound without meeting some kind of resistance, and there was no way he was going to be able to talk his way in there at this hour. No, it was take some sort of clever dis----ah. That's when it dawned on him, if he was able to apprehend one of the members on patrol, rendering him unconscious, then performing a transformation jutsu to form his disguise. The only problem after that would be locating the actual compound, Hokio wasn't small, there were all sorts of buildings practically identical, the boss can may as well been located in any of them.
Touya shrugged the thought off, regardless he wasn't going to let that stop him, maybe by some dumb luck he'll be able to locate his target. Hopefully Matsu was close by in order to back him up should the situation turn for the worse. A stealth mission has to be executed delicately and one could not afford even to make the slightly mistake or else their position and identity will be compromised. Touya kicked off the ground, jumping in midair landing on a nearby rooftop the moment he arrived into the village. Quietly he roamed from rooftop to rooftop, surveying the roads below as he did so. Eavesdropping on varies conversations between the guards in other to gather as much information as possible. It was apparent to the young genin that these men were obviously not apart of some wealthy organization, this was due to their poor choice of clothing and weapon. Dressed in rags and wielding the kind of things you'd find an mob of angry backwater villagers equipped with. As Touya continued with his observation a faint voice caught his attention approximately ten meters behind him, he followed it to the source.
"-----Chiyo, why are to dancing around, keep up! If you keep the boss waiting, there will be hell to pay." The source was an old gentlemen, followed by a younger blonde haired girl, who was pretty attractive, too attractive to be the the presence of these roughens. She would then reply;
"Calm down Kuzo, I have to go really really bad! Cover me while I go into this alley real quick, please!" She shouted not even waiting for an answer before darting off into the nearby alley.
"...that girl." The old man muttered taking his position awaiting for her return.
That was Touya's chance, as he ventured deeper into the alley, before taking care of her business. The young genin landed directly behind her, completely catching her off guard as he clasped his palm over her nostril and mouth, cutting off the air to the lungs. This caused her to pass out, however it also caused her to relieve herself at the moment. "Gross!" Touya spat in disgust, dropping her on the ground.
"Well, here is goes." With that he performed a couple hand signs;
"Transformation Jutsu!" followed by a poof and a cloud of smoke which surprisingly did not catch the attention of her companion. As the smoke cleared there was Touya, completely matching her features down to the last letter. "Perfect." He added, complimenting he work as he examined his new
assets.
"What's taking you so long!?" The voice of the old man called out, to which Touya emerged from the alleyway.
"Jeez girl, I do not know what the boss sees in you. Let's go!" He spat before walking off, Touya following at his heel making sure not to do anything suspicious.
....um, what did he just say...? The two eventually arrived at a building located to just barely in the center of the town, the old man turning to Touya to examine him.
"Okay, you look great. Try not to disappoint the boss now, ya hear?" With that said he winked, then without even waiting for a reply flung open the door with a great force, then placing his hand on Touya's back tossing him inside before slamming the door shut behind him.
What did I just get myself into...?2,690/1,500

Description: Given all the missions ninja are assigned to--battle, intelligence gathering, diversions--this is a priceless ninjutsu. It is typically used to change into people other than oneself, but one also has the ability to change into animals, plants, and even inanimate objects like weapons. This gives this technique an abundance of uses. The transformation of a skilled shinobi will be visually and physically the same as the original, so it will be impossible to tell the two apart. On the other hand, a transformation performed by an inexperienced person will have obvious discrepancies. It will be impossible to deceive anyone with it. This is one of the most basic ninjutsu, as such most shinobi know how to perform it. This jutsu is purely appearance-based, and does not give a ninja the abilities or jutsu of a person they transform into. Dojutsu can easily pick out this technique, and if the user has transformed into someone larger than themselves, the bits beyond their natural body will have no heat signature. This, and the fact that the chakra of the user wouldn't look normal makes it easier for sensing techniques to pick out transformed people. Costs 5 chakra on activation, and an additional 5 chakra every 2 posts.
