The Great Hunt

What a glorious day in Iwagakure it was indeed. The sun was shining and the rocks were...looking rocky. Everything was just fine and dandy. The citizens were frolicking through the streets all happy and that. However there was one man who wasn't happy today. Quite the contrary in fact, he was positively fuming. It was strange site for the villagers of Iwagakure, seeing the mountain of a man storming through the village with a scowl on his face. He could hear them whispering, questioning what possibly could have happened to make the strongest man in Iwagakure so mad? Was it that his candy had been stolen by children again? No, that was not it. Takeo was mad for a different reason altogether. He had heard rumors of a monster worth fighting roaming around the land near Iwagakure. Originally Takeo had thought, 'Ah ha! Finally a worthy opponent!' However he was soon told that he must not go out hunting the beast. Instead first he must go and see the Tsuchikage for permission to go out and track it down. He wasn't quite sure why, but apparently he was supposed to. So that was why the normally jolly man stormed into the Tsuchikage's office asking to see the Tsuchikage immediately. This was a matter of life and death after all. Everyone knew that if Takeo did not punch a large creature in the face at least once a month that he would die. It was a terrible curse to have. Actually wait, he didn't have that. Maybe this matter wasn't extremely important then. It was still important however!
