Kusari ignored the world around him, his tired mind swirling in lost thoughts... as the water soothed his many burns and his injured arm. Kusari let the soothing waters take over healing himf for the second time in less than a day. and he closed his eyes, his ears still listening as he let his mind try to srot out his chaotic thoughts.
Within his own mind, Kusari was weaving through a labyrinth.
In his won mind he heard the other voives and the met in the heart of these hallways. One a young boy, one a full grown man clad in white, one man clad in grey, and one monster...

As the spring healed his physical wounds and exhaustion... Kusari's mind began to sort itself out.
"Allright, grey one, you are not the one needed here, your lone ways are no longer needed now that we have found her. we don't need to seal out thw world, and live in pity and remorse for our actions..." the boy began to speak.
"NO We need actions! She asked for the old one! that is I it is i that am needed for this new LIfe! I can kill and protect and gain strength , show them all that we are the greatest and most fearsome ninja! We will kill everywhere, in a legacy of blood we wil show that we are the most powerful ninja and earn respect for the Momochi name!"
'NO! Demon, your work is not ours, we do not know how you have gotten loose from within the maze; but you are not needed here! Your ways are not ours anymore, you may have begun to take control but we will all fight you to keep you away." THe boy and the man in white and the man in grey all shouted in unison. The scorned beast lunged towards the boy angrily but was knocked away by the other two men as he fought against the two men he was finally forced to flee and they saw the being retreat within the maze unable to be followed through that place.
"So it seems, that at long last i have been found again... the demon has been fought back. and our consumeing remorse pushed aside, the guardian may finally return." the man in white said this to the boy and reached out his hand as the boy took his hand, Kusari's eyes fluttered open.

Kusari's eyes opened and he realized he had sunk several feet below the water's surface, he swam up and as his head broke the surface he took in a bi breath of air. having been down there much longer than one would normally wish to be. Kusari felt much better now, like he had been awakeneed from a long sleep, his earlier actions seemed so alien to him and he was amazed that it had been he that dare do such a thing, yes the enemy needed to be slain for thier crimes, but to drag a body through the village like that, and to present it to Nakamura in suhc a fashion... His mind thought farther back to the fight itself...it had not been a fight but a veritable slaughter. For large portions of the event the enemy had been pinned to the ground impaled upon his Kusari's sword while Kusari pummeled them with various jutsu and his Kusarigama. They had -pleaded for mercy or atleast thier life, but he had been a terrible rage filled monster seeking only revenge as well as to satisfy some sick blood lust to ease his own wounds. Kusari felt the last of his wounds healing up and he knew that once he was better it was his task to hurry to Nakamura and apolagize for his actions as well as abandoning her. This place was definately good for him. It was one that allowed a clarity and peace to ones mind as well as cleanseing and healiong for his body and mind.

Kusari rose out of the water and began to dress again in his last set of clean clothes. His black jacket was stowed away and replaced with this white one and yet another set of clean bandages wrapped up the lower half of his face to keep from frightening people. he wiped his sword off with the old face coverings and cleaned his other weapons as well. Finally he stowed that away to be washed later and made his way out of the place again looking clean and feeling a little tired still but knowing there were still things he had to do.

Another mishap befell the poor boy. His footing was never good. Hadn't been since his birth. He couldn't hold himself up and soon found himself face deep in the mud surrounding the spring. It was cold and wet...god he couldn't understand why he was so...so miserable. Why did life hate him so much? Was he really that horrid? Was life really in that much of a need for a prankster? For a jester? Was there some lack of cosmic comedy or something?
He could cry...oh who am I joking, he did sob to himself. His body was sore, his flesh was chilled, his bones hurt, he was hurting and wet and cold and naked just about...he wanted to go home. But he couldn't. He had too keep looking.

Trudging and sliding. His feet slipped about. His shoes gave him a bit more traction but still, he couldn't find anything. He had to haphazardly clean his glasses. There weas still smears and muck all over the lenses but he couldn't do any better right now. Every piece of clothing he had on was either wet or covered in mud so he had to move about with what he had. He was miserable...at least it was a quiet misery. No one to pick on him or judge him...yes, quiet misery was the best kind of misery. Whoever said misery loved company was a sick b*****d in deed.

Abit of a slip almost forced him o fall back into the water but he caught himself...no thats a lie. A branch caught him by the shorts and hair. It hung on o him long enough for him to catch his balance. A few pieces of the branch broke off into his hair. he sniffed a bit again at the wedgy the tree had just given him. What a miserable day this was. Rubbing his hair, he began to walk again, continuing his search. Why was things so hard for him? What was he doing to deserve this? Maybe he was really horrid in his past life or something....

He was getting a bit higher up on the land. He was having a better time. The footing up ehre was more solid. more dry. he could keep walking with more ease but still he had no luck with his clothes. He was gazing here and there, trying to find some trace or symbolence of the clothing he misplaced...but hwo could they be this far from where he found them. Dammit it was such a pain to go through all this. he sighed deeply and shook his head. A few mroe tears running down his face as he walked.

What a tragic time this was. This boy couldn't get a break to save his life. He looked about but found nothing still. He was colder now and felt a sneeze coming on. It was a hard one, one of those that dislodge his glasses a bit. After refixing the poor things, he began to shift further down on the bank and looked around a bit more.

Another slip and his feet were planted in the spring with a huge splash. There wasn't even any wet soil there. He just had no footing here at all. Another sniff left him as he looked down tot he side of his leg. a huge whelp was now there from the slipping and sliding. He winced as he rubbed his leg in that area and then just sighed...he was gonna get covered in more before the day was over so he might as well suck it up. Tears were starting to freeze and cover with mud as he walked along the banks more.

Hiro had tried communicating with the voice from before,but it was no use.He neared the silver springs,where he witnessed a pretty pathetic sight.A boy not to younger than himself was walking around the spring half naked.Hiro raised an eyebrow from within his helmet and then said with an echoing voice, "Are you ok?You look pitiful.." Hiro walked closer to the kid, and asked "Do you need help?"

A voice...what the duce? Hack looked around almost franticly. He looked like a dear caught in a headlight. Glancing around he soon saw the boy. He wanted to die now. Oh god, this was so embarrasing. He was downt o nothing but his boxers, socks and shoes and 2 packs of cards. "Umm....I....ummm...I...I lost my clothes...I...please, don't mind me. I'm just passing through. I'm sorry to have disturbed you in anyway." He bowed franticlly. As he did, his eyes glanced about. Where were his clothes. he wanted his shirt so hecould make a neck tie and hang himself now.

Then, out the corner of his eye he saw them. His pants were right in front of him. It was the shadow cast by this new boy that helped him see it. His pants had a bit of an odd color to them so the shadow set them apart. He swallowed hard...how was he suppose to ask for them? The pants were right behind him and he couldn't just grab them....he sank down slightly and sighed. His eyes still looking about.
