Nobu allowed his hands to come together as he began the well-known ritual that he had just started to perform fully, it was clear that he had been studying hard and now he was going to take full advantage of everything that he had learned. As he walked over to the window he allowed himself a few minutes to get to grips with the summons, after all, it would be a while before he was truly going to be able to control the creature but now he figured at least it would be able to help out in this situation, even if it talked to the girl from outside of the window.
Even as darkness snuck in the cloud of smoke that came from outside of the house was something that he would have considered to be huge even by his standard. As the smoke begun to clear the sound of earth shifting was clear as the huge snake started to uncoil itself from its normal sleeping position, it came into one final coiled up shape as its huge eye focused in on the window, it seemed to take in the surrounding around it had been brought into as it pondered on the actions of the young Shinobi before speaking.
"Why am I here? What did you bring me here for, I expect an explanation I was just sleeping, and to be woken like this is something I don't tolerate even from you"
Nobu seemed to understand the situation he was in right now as he looked towards the giant snake that was in front of him. Pondering the best reply to give to assist in explaining himself and his actions. The smirk always on his face as even now as he checked the creature out, it was hard to believe that not so long ago he didn't have a contract, a summon of his own and now this behemoth was what he considered to be one of the few friends he had in this world. It was strange how the world worked like that but after all, he had grown up knowing how strange things could be.
"I am on a mission, my first and right now could use one of those favors if we discussed if that is possible please?"
"What exactly is it you want me to do boy?"
"Just keep this girl company, talk to her about life and tell her about the experiences you have had, the things you have seen, nothing too hard for someone like yourself who has been around the world I take it?"
"Fine, just leave me here then and run along to the task that you have at hand, I am sure the work will keep you till the morning so I will remain here and wait."
It seemed that after explaining everything the snake would be willing to sit up all night with the child and talk to her about stories of this past and the future, talk to her about the world itself. It seemed clear that he wanted to give the experience to the girl, though she wouldn't remember much of it for long, as the words that were spoken were ancient and long-winded for someone of her age. Nobu listened for a while before turning around and heading out down the stairs towards the front door.
"I will set off now that way I don't waste any more time with food or anything else, and I should be back before the morning sun if I move quick enough, in terms of Sand and other things like that while I am happy to bring some back, not sure about the ocean itself but we will see how that goes. Right I will catch you while I am away the snake will look after the child at least in my absence"
With that Nobu opened the door, he knew from the history the Land of Fire was landlocked, however during his recent times and his encounters he had also come to learn that crater city would sell anything and everything you would imagine if you were willing to pay a price, ti was safe to say that this would be the best bet moving forward.
Walking into the busy city it was full of the usual hustle and bustle that came with a place like this, he was expecting there to be more honest but for now, this would and he could understand and respect that much. As he passed stand after stand it seemed that at night the city really did come alive, the hustle and bustle of people, all the different trades from different plans. He smiled to himself as he enjoyed the atmosphere of people simply trading with each other to survive, that was something that he could admit he did enjoy, and of course, he wanted to fully admit that he did stop at a few stands and see what they were selling. The curiosity of a mind like Nobu's did thurst and desire to be completely met with answers.
After what would be considered to be twelve hours of hunting, talking, and bargaining it seemed that Nobu had managed to gather everything he could from the stalls. Though his backpack was now brimming with objects and items from the world he knew that this would help her. He had gathered Sand from both the seaside and the land that was covered in Sand. Trees from various places, water from Cloud, Seawater from the furthest shores. He had gone over everything from animal shells to other options sea creatures, even including a swimming fist in seawater. Nobu had pulled all the stops out of his own pocket in this situation and he wasn't prepared to sacrifice anything else to give the kid a hard time.
Finishing up his collection he looked like the sun begun to rise over the land he had done the mission, sure it wasn't the way that the woman imagined it would be completed but this way it was quicker and allowed her to experience the whole selection of sights, smells and even tastes the world had to offer. He made sure he had enough of everything. It was rare items he had picked up and he knew that it would see the old lady and the child full of joy. As he turned back on his heels he began to walk back towards the house wondering just how well the snake had managed to get on with the child or if he was going to be coming back to a problem. Though he doubted it as he had made a pack with the creature after all.
Walking along the side of the house he looked at the huge form of the snake who seemed to notice him but continued to speak to the little child. Walking past the snake Nobu ran his hand across the scales of the snake for a few minutes as he smiled to himself. Walking past it he was well aware that right now he had completed the mission it was just a matter of fact of handing the things he had gathered across and hoping that everything went well from that point.
Coming back through the door Nobu smiled as he walked in, the morning light still coming up as he allowed himself to walk back into the house, slinging the backpack from his shoulder he smiled to himself place it down gently onto the table, he had delivered on the goal of the village and the mission was completed it seemed that Nobu was aware that he had achieved everything he needed to do, it was time for him to get back as the deadline for the temporary passport was slowly running out and he had to get back.
"The mission is completed as you have requested, in this bag you will find jars full of items, shells, water from different nations a bit of every land in a bag for you to show and share. I hope this is what you were looking for. With that Konoha considered the mission completed from our side."
With that he turned on his heels and bid the family goodbye one last time, putting his emotions out of his mind simply put the job had been done quickly and in a way that allowed the family most time with the items collected he considered that his task is done.

An older lady stood in the kitchen, you could hear some things clattering in the background as the person was obviously started by the sudden knocking.
As she was black to laying down, a new fresh cloth on her head she got a rather worried expression.
