Sakura wasn't entirely sure what was her entire plans in the event that her motives for entering Soragakure was, but all she knew was that she had gone along out of curiosity as to what Toshu was doing. She had taken precautions early and used her Byakugan to spy on the village's activity, managing to Toshu, and then smiled more so as she saw what he was doing there. She couldn't but think, And here I thought that he wasn't into killing. Nevertheless, she wanted to get a closer look. Surely though, avoiding him was off top priority to her, the last thing she wanted was for him to find out she followed him.

To get close to the seen, she would require a airship to get to the village since she herself wasn't capable of any technique capable of flight, especially one capable of flight to such a high degree. The airship wasn't all that crammed with people, with it supporting about just over twenty people - most of them were seemingly returning villagers. She had started a conversation with a slim, tanned man in about his early thirties when he had told her he always was afraid of airships. She could tell he was mostly telling the truth by his sweating, but certainly it was just him trying to make conversation. Nevertheless, that had quickly evolved into her lying about how it was her first time in order to help him feel not so alone. Surely her being kind wasn't going to come free though.

As the ship started to take off, she sighed. Don't even know why I'm doing this when I can't make any money of of it, she thought. Nevertheless, she was smiling just as quickly out of anticipation at this point.

The sudden voice over the intercom made everyone within the passenger's room go silent. When the man finished speaking, most of them gasped, while a few looked at each other with horror in their eyes. Sakura herself ached her brow, now uncertain by the whole situation. Certainly that was no joke, and she activated her Byakugan furthering her sight to see past the room she was in to where the man was. His appearance at least fit the bit of a criminal if she was to remove the employee suit he was wearing.

The sudden thug on her arm jugged her back to her present dilemma. The man she was talking to was now worried, looking at her, practically on the brink of tears. Didn't know he was this afraid, she thought, yet still mostly amused. He clung to her, and she sighed. "Don't worry it'll be fine," she said, stroking his head gently now, "I promise, I'll die before I ever let anything happen to you." He looked up at her now, and she gave a smile to comfort his nerves.

Suddenly, the airship made one large jerk in movement, larger than any of the wobbly one's before, and Sakura, as well as much of the passengers, were at least lucky to have seat belts, otherwise they would have been tossed around. They were seemingly going downward at this point, but rather quickly the ship's direction was changed again. Passengers at this point were all panicking, the man who Sakura was now obliged to protect was now clinging to her completely, a bit too close for most peoples comfort, but it made her feel needed and she loved it even if he was some stranger just a while ago.

She further her vision to see what was the situation outside of the craft. Soragakure was just within range now, the question was whether it would be a safe landing, in turn forcing her to do more than she intended.
