"Yeah, but I think he's still getting used to the idea of having me stand here in front of him." she stated upon placing her right hand upon his left shoulder. "You haven't been looking for me this whole time... because I told you, that you'd find me if I wanted you to. Come on, it hasn't been THAT long..." she said as she stuck out her tongue.
"Oh yeah! You were sent to kill me again? Who was it this time? You're lucky I held back... if I used my stronger jutsu, I don't think you'd be standing right now." she added, laughing at the thought of him killing her. He's tried in the past, neither really knowing who the other was untill mid-way through the battle. It seems that the only way we can meet is having him be ordered to kill me... without really knowing it's me. she thought to herself, looking to her left shoulder and then her right shoulder, waiting for Kusari to come to terms with her presence.

"Maybe it hasn't been that long for you, but to me it's felt like years, a lot has gone on since we last saw each other." He threw his arms around her in and over enthusiastic bear-like hug for a second before letting go and stepping back to get a better look at her.
"It's been hard getting by for me lately, Kirigakure has made my way of life harder and harder ever since my name began to be heard again. I took this job very reluctantly the only people i head from were messengers with no tags but if i had to guess they were either malcontents from your own village or some sort of missing nin collective." Kusari explained...
"I have been looking for you for at least 4 months, i returned to yukigakure but didn't want to draw too much negative attention to Yuki so i stayed outside the village and tried to spot you...all i saw was Hyousetsu. I staked out the village for days and began to fear the worst. I refused to believe that though and so have been trying to find you but progress was slowed by the fact that i hadn't been able to stay in villages for very long and also had to continue to find missions to get by. I am telling you Nakamura, this world feels smaller and smaller to me the more i explore it, and quirte frankly i don't like that at all..."
Kusari took a moment to look at her again before continuing to speak, as he did so he remembered the sharpened shark like condition of his teeth and began to wrap his face again not looking at her while he did it bu covering his shame by continueing to speak. "So the you're kage here? it seems that i shuould have taken roots somewhere instead of traveling to gain in strength, your skills seem to have grown at a greater rate than mine." While this was true, kusari knew that while she surpassed him in this direct battle there were probably areas in which he was superior to her skills, while she was a master in avoidane, and gen and ninjutsu, he was stronger physically and was more balanced all around...still she always managed to bat him, and were sh an enemy that would frustrate him to no end but instead she was one of the only people he called an ally and the only person he called friend. FInally he seemed to notice the other person as well, "And who might this be?" he asked as if having not been about to kill this young ninjas honored leader only seconds before.

Hiro jumped as Kusari's attention was turned to him."Hiro,of the Knight clan" He said unbuckling his helmet and bowing deeply."Your techniques are impressive,and your puppetry almost flawless,I learned a few things watching you battle".Hiro thought about when Kusari had used a scroll to keep his puppet armor in,he could easily do this with his Knight armor.

"Kusari Momochi last of my clan. It took me a long time to get where i am with my abilities, i suggest if you can you take an easier route. My skills were learned by spending nearly my entire life on the run or in battle. Take my advice, learn to cherish other things in life and make freinds that you can trust, they are more valueable than anything in this world".

His hug threw her completely off balance, and the way he managed to grab her forced her arms down to her sides only to have her hands flailing at her sides before he released her. Any longer, and he could have seriously hurt her. Well, at least we know his strength hasn't diminished. she thought to herself with a series of quick breaths.
"Well, it's good to know that Hyousetsu is still guarding the village. At least I know for a fact that it's in good, capable paws." she replied, only to bite her tongue in order to hear the rest of Kusari's words. It was like she had vanished off the face of the earth and he had come to terms with her being gone.
He seems to have... attachment issues? thought a familiar voice to Nakamura. Zenjin had showed himself several feet from behind her.
Nakamura's smile turned to a smirk. She thought it was rather funny, considering it hadn't felt that long to her. Time just seemed to fly by with the responsibilities she had to maintain. "Guilty as charged." Nakamura began, pausing to reveal a bit of her tongue with a strange look upon her face. She smiled, wiping it away with her right hand before continuing on. " First and foremost, you should know that if you're still alive, I HAVE to be alive. I mean, come on, we have history together. And... you can stay here if you want to. It can be like a second home. Sure, it's no Yukigakure, and it will take time to learn the secrets and passages of the village, but this place actually needs help. This village is attacked rather often, and I can only do so much with just Zenjin. I'm one of a kind too, so, it's just another reason why we get along so well." she added the last bit after placing both hands on Kusari's shoulders before jumping over his head, her legs swinging over his body as if she were on a pummel horse.
She dismounted from Kusari's shoulders by pushing off with her hands. Seconds later, she landed three feet away from Kusari. "Well? Are you going to come in the village or not?" she asked, urging both shinobi to enter the village. She was paranoid about leaving the village gates open for too long, you never knew what kind of person could get in when the gates were left open.

Kusari smiled. "I would be glad to, aparently i need to find a new home to continue to train properly, and now that I have found you did you really think i was going to up and leave?" Kusari laughed from behind his face wrappings. Kusari followed behind her looking about the village... "It is a good thing we didn't get to far into the village, but i bet it will be a little hard for some of the to trust someone they just saw trying to kill you not a minuet ago." Kusari stowed his kusarigama on his belt and tucked away his scrolls. his hair which was hanging lose, he turned itno atop knot and secured in place with two senbon.

If that was your attempt at killing me... I don't think they have anything to be worried about... Nakamura thought to herself with a sigh. "I don't think anyone would really care. They know I can fend for myself and them if it comes down to it." to said, recovering from her thoughts. "I'll be back in a few... I should go tell Amadeus that we have a new shinobi, so nothing gets out of hand... you know, just in case." Nakamura said as she looked to Hiro and then to Kusari before rushing off towards Rikki's office.

Kusari watched her vanishe and decide to wait where he was inside the village... as he stood there in the place that would soon be his home, he was breathed deeply and felt that he was stronger now, somehow it felt lik some unknown weight was lifted from him and some sort of inner strength was unlocked in him. It felt like he had regained a part of himself that he had lost some time ago.
he stretched a little and flexed his arms ,not in a show off manner but as if testing them as if he hadn't used them in a while. "some how i feel stronger now.. i was free to roam the earth but it is not untill i have come to connect myself with a new home that i again feel free... imagine that." he stated alloud not really for anyones benefit but if they wanted to respond he would not mind. Kusari reached into the bag with his scroll in it and drew out his tightly bundled up black jacket. He pulled it on and fastened it up part way down. "So, who is this Amadeus person she was mentioning?" he asked of the other ninja.

"Ah,yes.Amadeus.Amadeus is the leader of the Fifth Dawn.I met him when coming to this village in search of....Well.Thats not important" Hiro said with a rather fake smile.He thought of his best friend,who was now deceased."And about what you said earlier,friends who you can trust with your life are often hard to find."Hiro had yet found where Tobi had taken his own life,but Hiro knew that hidden within the letter he found after Tobi's disappearance had clues.

Finding anyone in this world to trust is difficult, let alone a friend." Kusari fetl invigorated still and wanted to test his new strength but knew that he should probably not run rampant in this village quite yet, instead he continued to wait...
"so you live here, as long as we're waiting here for her to come back... you might as well tell me a little about the place...like is there anything or anyone important i should know about?"

"I myself have only been here for a couple of days.There are still many things I dont know."Hiro thought for a moment,and the only two people who would cause trouble are dead and gone."I guess just dont piss off Amadeus,although I have never seen him in combat,he IS the Fifth Dawn leader."Hiro thought for a moment,he needed to talk to Nakamura about the Knight Village.Something as big as that could cause great conflict if not told to the Kage.Hiro's Chakra reserves were spent.He had enough to maybe last another half hour before collapsing of exhaustion.

The Amane twins had came from a quiet part of the village to the main part in silence. Nothing interesting had happened to the two recently so they were only taking a look around as they often had before. Being there for a year, the two knew their way around fairly. Though, they were still unsure of every nook and cranny in the village, let alone the people. So far the two had only met one or two of the regular villagers. Amazingly they hadn't even met the Kage yet. Hikaru thought they should do so soon enough. Yawning, he grabbed his twin's hand in his own and sent him a smile. Kaoru, a bit suprized by his twin's movements, soon smiled and laced his fingers between his. "You need to learn to keep to yourself better, brother." Kaoru said in his regular emotionless voice. "But...I like holding your hand, Kaoru-kun," Hikaru mused. He enjoyed messing with his brother even now at the age of 18. "Grow up." Kaoru said a bit annoyed. "But, but-" "Don't even," he said coldly before his brother could finish. "I'm not in one of my playful moods at the moment." It was then the two noticed others along the place the two were walking. Seemed like the two men were talking. "Mustn't interupt now, come on." Kaoru said like a mother to her son as he noticed Hikaru begin to get that gleam in his eye at the few parts he had heard. Kaoru bowed his head slightly to the two as he and his brother passed by.

Kusari looked to be thinking about something,and Hiro was just about ready to collapse.He hobbled away from Kusari and grabbed the trunk of a tree twenty feet away.He whirled around to the back where he couldnt be seen and that is where he dropped his helmet and fell to the ground.He fell into a deep sleep and his chakra reserves stopped."I hope nobody finds me here" Hiro thought to himself as he slipped into dream.When he got up,he had other business to attend to,such as finding the body of Tobi.

Hikaru was practically prancign his marry way down the village's streets with his brother in hand. Random thoughts were running through his head as he wondered how the woman of the village looked. "Hey, Brother? What do you think is sexier? Bra's or panties? Oh oh! And what type and color?" Kaoru stopped in his tracks when he heard his brother's questions. "W-What kind of sick minded trash do you speak?" He said a bit coldly, a slight hint of pink could be traced in his cheeks. "You know! Remember when that total hot chick was flirting with you? What was the first thing you thought of!" Hikaru had stopped infront of Kaoru and gripped his shoulders. "Personally I think panties are better. Especially black lacy thongs. Those make me want to take care of myself right there!" Kaoru's uncertain expression couldn't even compare to how uncomfortable he felt inside. "I-I....I guess....bra?" Hikaru's happiness clearly ended then, "Bra? Are you serious!? What is sexy about that!" The fight went on one sided as the two walked down the street. Kaoru stayed quiet for most of the walk as Hikaru continued to list the many different types of panties he enjoyed.

Kusari ignored the strange speakings of the twins a ways off, and didn't pay attention to the boy either, he was lost, invigorated with power and couldn't stand in one place any longer... he needed to stretch his legs, use a fraction of this power that he felt within himself. Kusari felt a slight grin spread across his face beneath his wrappings and took off barreling straight down the road. THe feel of running for the sheer enjoyment of it was somehow uplifting, Kusari couldn't resist and so leap t atop a building and continued to run leaping from roof to roof as he sensed his way towards Nakamura, finding that his old ability to subconsciously know where she was had returned.
